As President Obama prepares to embark on his second and final term, it's worth exploring what he can do to foster progress on environmental issues and the nation's, and world's, energy and climate challenges. In November, I sought reader input as I reported a piece on this question for Men's Journal. The focus is on steps that can be taken even with tight budgets and polarized politics.
The article was posted online on Friday. Here are some excerpts.
From the introduction:
The temptation is to focus on issues that inflame the public, like the Keystone XL pipeline, but the president would do better to take a wider perspective. Keystone, for one, would pump only 830,000 barrels of oil from tar sands a day, about a third of the 2.3 million barrels of oil Canada already sends us, and a mere fraction of our heavily subsidized 19-million-barrel-a-day habit. We spoke to scientists, economists, and policy advisers, who recommended the most impactful environmental measures, ones that can be achieved over the course of the next four years. Here's their nine-point plan to protect the planet.

Okay, okay, I'm going to tell you what Hermione sees in Ron.
A trio is a balancing act, right? They're equalizers of each other. Harry's like the action, Hermione's the brains, Ron's the heart. Hermione has been assassinated in these movies, and I mean that genuinely—by giving her every single positive character trait that Ron has, they have assassinated her character in the movies. She's been harmed by being made to be less human, because everything good Ron has, she's been given.
So, for instance: "If you want to kill Harry, you're going to have to kill me too"—RON, leg is broken, he's in pain, gets up and stands in front of Harry and says this. Who gets that line in the movie? Hermione.
"Fear of a name increases the fear of the thing itself." Hermione doesn't say Voldemort's name until well into the books—that's Dumbledore's line. When does Hermione say it in the movies? Beginning of Movie 2.
When the Devil's Snare is curling itself around everybody, Hermione panics, and Ron is the one who keeps his head and says "Are you a witch or not?" In the movie, everybody else panics and Hermione keeps her head and does the biggest, brightest flare of sunlight spell there ever was.
So, Hermione—all her flaws were shaved away in the films. And that sounds like you're making a kick-ass, amazing character, and what you're doing is dehumanizing her. And it pisses me off. It really does.
In the books, they balance each other out, because where Hermione gets frazzled and maybe her rationality overtakes some of her instinct, Ron has that to back it up; Ron has a kind of emotional grounding that can keep Hermione's hyper-rationalness in check. Sometimes Hermione's super-logical nature grates Harry and bothers him, and isn't the thing he needs even if it's the right thing, like when she says "You have a saving people thing." That is the thing that Harry needed to hear, she's a hundred percent right, but the way she does it is wrong. That's the classic "she's super logical, she's super brilliant, but she doesn't know how to handle people emotionally," at least Harry.
So in the books they are this balanced group, and in the movies, in the movies—hell, not even Harry is good enough for Hermione in the movies. No one's good enough for Hermione in the movies—God isn't good enough for Hermione in the movies! Hermione is everybody's everything in the movies.
Harry's idea to jump on the dragon in the books, who gets it in the movies? Hermione, who hates to fly. Hermione, who overcomes her withering fear of flying to take over Harry's big idea to get out of the—like, why does Hermione get all these moments?
[John: Because we need to market the movie to girls.]
I think girls like the books, period. And like the Hermione in the books, and like the Hermione in the books just fine before Hollywood made her idealized and perfect. And if they would have trusted that, they would have been just fine.
Would the movies have been bad if she was as awesome as she was in the books, and as human as she was in the books? Would the movies get worse?
She IS a strong girl character. This is the thing that pisses me off. They are equating "strong" with superhuman. To me, the Hermione in the book is twelve times stronger than the completely unreachable ideal of Hermione in the movies. Give me the Hermione in the book who's human and has flaws any single day of the week.
Here's a classic example: When Snape in the first book yells at Hermione for being an insufferable know-it-all, do you want to know what Ron says in the book? "Well, you're asking the questions, and she has to answer. Why ask if you don't want to be told?" What does he say in the movie? "He's got a point, you know." Ron? Would never do that. Would NEVER do that, even before he liked Hermione. Ron would never do that."
— Melissa Anelli THROWS IT DOWN about the way Ron and Hermione have been adapted in the movies on the latest episode of PotterCast. Listen here. This glorious rant starts at about 49:00. (via emilyisobsessed)

Whenever that happens, I usually turn to something dependable and sweet, like my deep, rich, chocolate-y brownie. That always does the trick. It unlocks the deeply hidden cookie jar of wellness and restores the yang in my life..
I spied the jar of homemade Spiced Apple Butter, a carton of fresh eggs and the last vestiges of Winter Apples and pop when the right bulb. Pots de Creme, it was to be, and very much apple at that!! And, quite apt too.. what with me taking French classes these days.
Alors! Je fais Pots de Crème au Beurre de Pomme. J'ai confit de pomme dans cinq épices et beurre à légèrement caraméliser les fruits. Le confit augmente la saveur de pomme de la crème et rend le dessert super... :))
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 2 hours
Yield: 4 small jars
1/4 cupspiced apple butter
2 Tsugar
1.5 cupshalf and half or light cream
1/2 tspsalt
1/2 inch stickcinnamon
Cooking Directions
Whip the yolks with sugar until pale yellow in color. Add the apple butter to it and incorporate completely. Meanwhile, heat the cream with the cinnamon stick to just until it starts simmering. Remove from heat, cover and let steep for 5 minutes.
Slowly and while continuously whisking, add the warm cream to the yolk and apple mixture making sure that the eggs don't curdle. Divide the mixture into 5 shallow ramekins or 4 small jars and bake in a water bath at 325 F for 30 minutes.
Remove from the bath, bring to room temperature and then refrigerate to let the custard set completely.Top with the candied and spiced apple and nuts and serve.

Perkins Palms plans pads
Perkins Palms, a mixed-use development on Perkins Road between Kenilworth Parkway and Staring Lane, is generating new activity.
On Feb. 3, Perkins Palms sold 2.19 acres to Gettom for $675,000, or about $7.10 per square foot. The tract is located behind Inves-tar Bank on the west side of the retail-condominium building.
Gettom plans to develop four 4,000-square-foot office building pad sites, the first of which will be occupied by the owner.
According to Donnie Jarreau, who developed Perkins Palms, the architecture of the four office buildings will be homogenous with the original structure and will be a relatively new concept for the market.
"This won't be the same office condominium pad-site development that you see along Bluebonnet Boulevard," he says. "It will be a unique design with a high-quality finish."
The purchase comes less than a week after it was announced that The Rum House, a New Orleans restaurant that uses Caribbean flavors in Latin American dishes, will open in front of Perkins Palms on one of the front parcels along Perkins Road.
Jarreau says construction of the restaurant should start in June.
Apartments proposed
Heritage Acquisition Company has purchased 13.48 acres along La. Highway 64 for $1.625 million, or about $2.77 per square foot, for the development of an upscale, 178-unit apartment project.
The property is located on the north side of La. 64, also known as Mt. Pleasant-Zachary Road, across from the proposed Americana development. The site is slightly irregular in shape, but it does have 102 feet of frontage on the north side of the road.
Construction should begin later this year.
Chabill's Tires buys site
Chabill's Tire, which has 13 locations across south Louisiana, has purchased 1.71 acres on Coursey Boulevard for $542,500, or about $7.30 per square foot, in a sale that closed Feb. 1.
The buyer was Catherine Development, represented by Ellis McKnight with Kurz & Hebert Commercial Real Estate Company. The seller was ASA Properties, represented by Leon Audibert with Property One.
The Coursey site would be Chabill's Tires' first in the Baton Rouge market. Construction should begin in the next few months.
Galatoire's renderings released
Commercial Properties Realty Trust, the real estate arm of the Baton Rouge Area Foundation, earlier this month released renderings of the new Galatoire's restaurant planned for the Acadian Village development at Acadian Thruway and Perkins Road.
The 7,500-square-foot building, located on an outparcel just west of the new IberiaBank, will include a 1,500-square-foot courtyard for outdoor dining. Construction is expected to begin in the coming weeks, with completion scheduled for the end of the year.
Galatoire's Bistro, on Perkins Road near Highland Road, closed in May 2011. Acadian Village has been owned by Commercial Properties since 2004; the development currently includes Acme Oyster House.

Mobile Kitchens: Cooking on the Road in Campers, Airstreams, and Trailers
Small Kitchen Inspiration
The season of camping (or glamping, if that's how you like to do it!) is upon us. Are you planning to hitch a trailer to your car this summer for a weekend getaway? Going on the road in a camper or airstream? Take heed: the owners of these mobile kitchens haven't let small space constraints prevent them from cooking. Personalized yet pared down to the essentials, they're great inspiration for stationary small kitchens, too.
Do you have a mobile kitchen? What are your essentials? How have you made it fun and functional?

Oh look! There's Matthew and his Airstream again! :D
all I've got to say is that if you're moving, you'd better be able to tie stuff down before it becomes an UFO (unidentified flying object). My folks owned a travel trailer. nothing on the counters and all doors had to have a good latch- including the frige. A swing or hard curve and stuff goes flying!

And I have to admit, it was a bit of an uphill climb at first. Cal liked being read to (I think I'd mentioned the "Illustrated Classics" series here already, and he particularly enjoyed the science-fiction-adventure story picks of that lot--your War of the Worlds, your 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, what have you) but I still think he viewed reading for himself as a bit of a slog. I got him some easier chapter books (in particular he had mentioned reading some of the "Cam Jansen" books at school--basically your standard kid mystery series, Case of the Missing Dinosaur Bones, that kind of thing--and while it didn't seem like great storytelling I did particularly like that the protagonist was a girl and her best friend was a boy who was always babysitting his baby brother) and Cal worked his way through a dozen of those, mostly when I asked him to. But it still kind of felt like that to him: work. He'd read two or three chapters after school, mostly on assignment, and then, duty dispensed, he'd go and do something he really wanted to do, like write the definitive illustrated reference guide to prehistoric reptiles or some such thing.
I figured I wouldn't push it. I figured he wasn't ready. I figured (and this I kept to myself, but with growing dismay) that not every kid loves to read, and just because Cal didn't want to read in the bathtub didn't mean that he wouldn't have a rich intellectual life. (This was a recurring theme--many of my paperbacks from childhood and adolescence were more than a little warped from water exposure.)
I got the Harry Potter series for Cal...kind of...but also just because I thought they were books that were worth owning, period. I expected Cal would like to read them eventually, of course, but I didn't really think he'd be quite ready for them yet--some of the writing and plot are a little dense at points, and the dialogue and vernacular is a touch continental (stuff like Ron exclaiming "bloody hell!" all the time, people referring to large groups of students as "you lot"--which I guess is the British version of all y'all) but, you know, I figure we'd have them lying around for later, and maybe Cal would pick them up and leaf through them if and when he wanted to.
A couple of months ago, we started reading "The Sorcerer's Stone" to Cal at bedtime. We watched the movie. Cal started getting interested, pointing out that while he liked the movie because it "showed what things look like," he liked the book better because it had details and some side plots that necessarily got dropped from the film version. (I'd argue, actually, that they weren't judicious enough in their editorial process for that first film--have you tried to re-watch that thing? God, it's like Exposition City, and it just goes on forever.) We got through "The Chamber of Secrets," Joe and I reading most of it aloud, Cal reading some of it himself. First he read it aloud to us. Then I started noticing him silently reading it alone, while I was cooking dinner, or taking care of Mack. We finished the second book and instantly he picked up "The Prisoner of Azkaban." He started reading in the car. I took him to Target the other day (to buy underwear for Mack, remember), and he was reading as we made our way down the aisles. These past few weeks, we've been seeing more of this:
He has one of the lanterns from our camping trip in the bottom bunk of his bed, and he says up late, reading Harry Potter. He begs us to let him read for ten more minutes, to let him finish the chapter, he'll go to sleep right after, but it's the part with Quidditch, mom, just let me finish the part with the Quidditch. Right under our noses, he's made the jump from reading for comprehension to reading for enjoyment.
I guess the real conclusion from all this is something that no one needed me to point out, which is that J.K. Rowling is a very good writer. That, and maybe we need to get a better reading light for Cal's room.

I wasn't much of a reading-for-pleasure person in high school or college (reading textbooks took up most of my time, and after those I inevitably had to grab a copy of PEOPLE magazine to let my brain relax), but I will say that I looked forward to every single Harry Potter book that came out. Now that I'm in grad school, with a bit more time on my hands, I've rediscovered the joys of going to bed with a book and reading until 5 AM. Cal's getting a good start!ReplyDelete
Ditto on being jealous--Cal keeps saying how he CAN'T WAIT to get to the "Deathly Hallows," and I keep telling him that he shouldn't be too impatient, because after the 7th book, there are NO MORE TO READ and that is tragic.ReplyDelete
(I started reading Harry Potter in med school too. I read the first four all at once, and then the remaining three as they were released.)
- Chris6:21 PM
I also have a vast collection of water damaged books from reading in the tub! I think passing on a love of reading is one of the best things you can do for a child. Have you bought any other fantasy-genre books for Cal? As a child any book with magic was instantly captivating.ReplyDelete
I think I channeled you when I was younger and reading-Sweet Valley and Baby Sitters Club!! Mama and Daddy grew up in India, so they banned TV by the time we were old enough to turn it on and ALL I DID was read.ReplyDelete
When I went to Switzerland last summer for an internship, the first thing I found was the English bookshop. Not the chocolate. Not the food. The bookstore.
Glad to see Cal loves reading!
- Anonymous7:26 PM
I started reading Harry Potter between book 4 and book 5 (book 5 is the first one I got the day it was released) at age 23 or so, I think. I kept telling people I was sure I would hate it because I hate fantasy books. Turns out that I loved them so much that at age 30, a big part of a trip to Ireland was finding things that reminded my friend and I about Harry Potter (i.e. the cliffs look like the movie, the library at Trinity college, the names in churches, the tour guide that looked like Harry himself etc!)!!ReplyDelete
Anyway, I am pretty envious of Cal getting to read those books at an age where it is still completely magical.
And about book 7, I kind of have a hard time reading it because of how much it sucks that it is the last one! I have this whole thing about how she could have written 8 books....given us year 7 at school and then the 8th book for most of the book 7 plot.
Love Harry Potter!ReplyDelete
Do you worry about Cal developing myopia since he's such a voracious reader? My mom used to tell me that my eyesight would go bad if I read lying down (well, I did eventually develop myopia at age 11 years, but not from reading lying down, but probably genes had something to do with it + I was also reading A LOT)
This entry has made me realize that I need to incorporate reading for pleasure back into my life. Ever since I left my job in August and headed back to school, I haven't read for pleasure since I got back in the classroom! Going to find something to download on my Kindle right now!ReplyDelete
Go Cal! Harry Potter is the best!
- Anonymous8:52 PM
I am very impressed that he is reading at such an advanced level. My youngest daughter and Cal are almost the exact same age (7/20/2005). She is just now getting the hang of reading and still has difficulty with about every third word. We are still sounding out "ch" "th" "wh", etc.ReplyDelete
Good for Cal. Are his teachers impressed with his reading skills? Surely he must be the most advanced in his class.
For me the moment came right when I turned 7 at the end of first grade: It was the Little House on the Prairie series that did it for me. Harry Potter is more difficult I think. He's a really good reader!ReplyDelete
As a side note.... Oh how I wish I'd been allowed to read Sweet Valley High!!! So jealous.
- Jenny9:35 PM
That is awesome that he loves to read now. I love Beverly Cleary. And I remember the "My Teacher is an Alien" series was pretty fun to read, too. I can't wait until my kids are old enough to read. I have to remind myself to read physical books instead of electronic ones, so they know I'm reading and not just playing on the computer/device.ReplyDelete
I used to read all my books in my native language. But then in my secondary school, I started to pick up the English version.ReplyDelete
And all because I wanted to read Harry Potter's newest book. (It'd take about six months before we can start reading the Indonesian version).
So I probably have to thank JK Rowling for making me learn English. :D
Cam Jansen!!! "Click!"ReplyDelete
Ohh second grade.
- medrecgal11:40 AM
A fabulous post...reading for pleasure is a great tool to have in your arsenal, and I've been doing it since I was three. I wasn't a series girl, but I did (and still do) a lot of reading. I was reading the medical journals by the time I was twelve (geeky, I know!). Good for Cal; it will serve him well in the future to be well-read.ReplyDelete
- Atlantagirl10:34 PM
OMDG: I was reminiscing tonight to my fiance about how much I loved the Little House series! I asked him if he read it and, with a snort of derision, he said no. I guess it's pretty girly, though I'd think the pioneer spirit spans both genders!ReplyDelete
What got me on the topic is this new book I checked out at the library called The Wilder Life, by this author who visits all the 'Little House' locations!! Haven't started reading it, though.
- Elizabeth10:43 PM
I loved this post. I also was a voracious reader as a kid, both in the bathtub and out (hell, I still am a voracious bathtub reader), and both quality books and the BSC. I certainly hope that my ten-month old daughter will love reading as much as I did. She does enjoy being read to now, so maybe that's a good sign...ReplyDelete
I have a sister who's much younger than I am. For the longest time at age 3 or 4, she was only interested in having Pokemon books read to her. I bribed her to sit still and listen to just one damn chapter of Sorceror's Stone, because I thought she'd like it. I read sort of fast so she wouldn't get up and leave during the first chapter. At the end, she looked up at me and said, "Keep READIN'!" We read her the first three books in a month; by the time the fourth one came out, she was reading it herself.
Go Cal! Keep it up!
Atlantagirl -- I didn't think the series was SO girly, but in general little boys don't read books with girl protagonists because.... well isn't it obvious?ReplyDelete
Not sure if it's true, but I heard once that Harry Potter was originally about Hermione, but that the publisher made Rowling change it to Harry because they knew that only little girls would read the book if the protagonist was a girl. I hope that's not true, because it makes me a little sad.
- Anonymous10:31 AM
The second Little House book is told from the male perspective, I think it's called Farm Boy or something along those lines. Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote it from her husband's POV when he was a child. Though I am female it was my favorite book because it goes into detail about the food. Mmmmmm...home cooked country food.ReplyDelete
Anon -- Yes, Farmer Boy! I think it was the third book. I think my favorite was On the Banks of Plum Creek (#4), because they lived in an underground house which I thought was cool.ReplyDelete
Congratulations! That must be a wonderful feeling. I read the Harry Potter series as I was growing up, and I think there is something (extra) magical about reading them as a child. I was also a voracious reader (and still am). But I used to get in trouble for reading at the table, especially when we had company, and I'm fairly certain I didn't do my eyes any favors by reading from the light of the street lamps after I was supposed to be in bed. I needed reading glasses at 18. Definitely buy Cal that new reading lamp! I know I just talked about myself a lot, but the truth is, of hope that someday I can feel as proud as you must feel now knowing that the love of reading is going to teach him more about life and about himself at an accelerated rate.ReplyDelete
Loved the BSC...I think I wanted to be best friends with all of them at one point! And Sweet Valley, it started off so innocent with the "Kids" series and turned downright raunchy and tragic once they graduated and went off to Sweet Valley University! Also, I believe SVH was at one point a TV series, albeit a short-lived one- the episodes are on YouTube- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcmbBpPhNLIReplyDelete
Although I really don't care for the Harry Potter series at all, they were also the first books my boy read when he turned from a reluctant to a voracious reader. So go Ms. Rowling.ReplyDelete
As for the girl/boy protagonist thing, I think we often don't give boys enough credit for being willing to listen to books about girls, and because of that, they never get the chance to discover what great books some of them are. My boys like being read to (and I was a girl) so I read them the books I loved. If a story is a good story, boys will like it.
So far my 8 and 11yo boys have listened happily to the entire Little House series (and yes, the food in Farmer Boy!), The Secret Garden, A Little Princess, Anne of Green Gables, Island of the Blue Dolphins, Harriet the Spy, Strawberry Girl, and a host of other books with girl protagonists - along with plenty of books featuring the fellows.
Boys take a little longer than girls to get into reading. I think it's because girls live a little more in fairyland during the early childhood. But eventually they do get it. J K Rolling is a genius at getting people reading. You should look into the Star Wars Series. Both of my boys were captivated by them.ReplyDelete
Wow!! This Boy Having A great Hobby..that is really favorable for him:)ReplyDelete

We offer two ways to locate information:
The House of Bollinger only produces vintage champagnes in exceptional years, when the grapes have reached a perfect quality and maturity with a perfect balance between the acids and sugars. Hence the denomination "Grande Année" given to this champagne which, unlike the "Special Cuvée", is only produced from grapes of that particular harvest.
The Bollinger Grande Année remains, however, a blended wine from crus and grape varieties. In this sense it too carries the expression of the House style. However, in this case, the style is also dependent on the characteristics of the given vintage. It is the best wine Bollinger can produce in an individual year by exposing its particular character.
In 1829, Champagne Bollinger introduced an instantly recognizable, dry, toasty style that connoisseurs around the globe have coveted ever since. Six generations of the Bollinger family have maintained that trademark style, and Bollinger is one of the rare Grande Marque houses to be owned, controlled and managed by the same family since it was founded.

Alan's Retreat In The Hills
House Tour
Alan Yang
Location: Hollywood Hills — Los Angeles, CA
Size: 2,000 square feet
Years lived in: 1.5 years — own
Last Summer I had the awesome pleasure of working with interior designer Sally Breer of Commingle Home, where we photographed her clients home in the Hollywood Hills. Alan Yang, a screenwriter for Parks & Recreation, has been enjoying this incredible home for just over a year now.
The home in the hills boasts two bedrooms, three bathrooms, an incredible office... and a speakeasy! Yes, Sally turned a former storage room into a speakeasy-inspired hidden bar, trap door included. Though Alan's home has a wonderful nod to many design traditions and a fun aesthetic, I love that he doesn't take it all too seriously.
In a rad house that has so many incredible elements like the awesome view, the cozy office with a fireplace and the newly remodeled kitchen, it'd be hard to name just one favorite element. Alan remarks, "I really like the porthole mirror in the living room. You can flip a switch on the side, make the mirror disappear and reveal a photograph. The photo is of my mom, my sister and me at my second birthday party. I told my designer to crop my mom and sister out and just leave me in the middle, looking really cute, but she refused. Now I'm glad she did, because it reminds me of how much I love my family."
This home has no shortage of nooks to crawl in and find a comfy cozy spot to take a nap. However that wasn't Alan's main goal at all. He hilariously admits, "I had one goal when designing and furnishing my new house: I wanted a place where I could comfortably sit and eat a burrito at four in the morning. I am proud to say that I have accomplished that goal, and eaten several burritos in the designated place."
Sally Breer was in charge of most of the home's design renovations and piecing together Alan's style in a way that worked for everyday living. Also with a home that truly implores the LA bachelor and lifestyle it's easy to imagine how much the city's influence may have had on the design itself. Alan says "L.A. has a unique mixture of electrifying, star-studded nightlife, breathtaking natural beauty, and quirky ethnic neighborhoods, and I think it's safe to say that soaking all of that in has made me the most important designer of the twenty-first century."
Apartment Therapy Survey:
Alan's words about the house...
My Style: Modern, warm, comfortable. Also, everyone says "eclectic," so I'm going to say "not eclectic." It's the opposite of eclectic. Everything in my house comes from one aisle in the Target on Santa Monica and La Brea. Check it out — it's an awesome aisle.
Inspiration: Southern California. The Park Hyatt Shanghai. The Bowery Hotel in New York. The art of Ed Ruscha. The smell of freshly cut Kentucky bluegrass. The sensation of petting a dolphin. Voicemails. Tangerines. Austrian harpischords. What was the question?
Favorite Element: There's a little bar downstairs that's hidden behind a bookshelf that serves as a secret door. I also plan to use that bar as a panic room, so now I'm screwed if my future robber reads Apartment Therapy.
Biggest Challenge: Filling out this survey, when really I owe everything to my supremely talented designer, Sally Breer.
What Friends Say: They're just blown away that I no longer live in a house with five dudes.
Biggest Embarrassment: I do not deserve to live in a house this nice.
Proudest DIY: The living room fireplace used to be covered in a weird beige marble that made visitors vomit in disgust. Now it has a beautiful reclaimed wood facade that makes visitors vomit in appreciation and awe.
Biggest Indulgence: There are beautiful vintage apothecary bottles from Paris above the bar in the speakeasy room. And with the previous sentence, I've just won the award for "Most Down-to-Earth Man in America."
Best Advice: Hire a designer with impeccable taste. Also, put secret rooms everywhere in your house. They're the best. I have like fourteen secret rooms that I didn't even let you guys photograph. I park my car in a cave in Glendale that connects to my house somehow, I don't even know how.
Dream Sources: As I said, everything in the house, including all my food and clothes and stuff, comes from that one aisle in Target. So I guess "that aisle in Target"?
Resources of Note:
For the resource notes I asked Sally to talk about specific pieces and elements that stood out the most..
• All paint is Behr • Living room is Fashion Gray • Master bedroom is Burnished Clay
• Bar cart was a thrift store find- we had it painted white and added vintage hardware from liz's antique hardware.
• Mirror was a rosebowl score- I had to rewire it- which I did myself- it was an adventure! Haha the photo inside is of Alan as a little kid at his birthday party. (when the light is off it looks like a regular mirror- we loved that when it's turned on there's a more intimate & personal photograph hiding in there)
• The bench along the stairway- a vintage frame- we had the velvet cushion made for it.
• Sofa is from Hd buttercup- we had it recovered in Herman miller fabric. I believe the color is "ashes".
• Rug is from Modern Rugs on La Cienega- he was liquidating his oriental rugs so we ended up getting it for a really great price!
• Dining table was custom built by a guy up in san Francisco area- he uses all reclaimed materials.
• Chairs, I'm afraid, are knock off molded Eames - Amazon! We needed something clean and modern but we splurged on the pendants so we had to be conservative on the chairs.
• The pendants are vintage Raak lights, originally from Amsterdam- purchased from Amsterdam Modern
• I unfortunately don't know who did the kitchen- previous owners had it done. We, however, took out the wall between the kitchen and the living room to open up the living space. We also put up the wood on the fireplace facade
• The (colorful framed) prints are actually vintage teaching aids from Uncommon Objects in Austin Texas that we framed! They were so beautiful I thought- they're double sided which made me a little sad to have to lose a side!
• Chairs are vintage- Rosebowl Flea Market- had them recovered.
• Pendant light was custom made by a local welder. We took out a big ceiling fan and replaced it with our light to create something that was architectural and that would be a bit more interesting than the usual thing.
• Desk was a Craigslist score
• I actually got the vintage pollock chair from my rug cleaner- it was sitting in his office and I spied it one day when I went to pick up rugs that had just been cleaned. It took some major finesse to convince him to sell it to me. It was a major find.
• The painting above the mantel-It's a quote from David Foster Wallace (one of Alan's favorite authors) I found the big piece at a thrift store and then just used letter decals from the hardware store to spell out the quote.
• The headboard was actually a coffee table that I bought a while ago- the legs were ugly so i had planned to make a new base for it when I realized Alan needed a headboard! We were on a "guest room budget" (meaning, not the same amount as a master bedroom) so we needed to make the biggest impact with only a few pieces. The actual bedframe is just Ikea.
• The metal cabinet "credenza" is made of two metal cabinets I found at a flea market. They were used In a garage for tools and had weird paint all over them so we stripped the paint and then I had my welder make a base for them to raise them to normal credenza height and a piece of lacquered wood for the top to make it feel a bit more like one piece. By adding the legs and top we gave it a more modern and less industrial feel.
• Truthfully it was mainly inspired by Alan's coolness. And I mean that sincerely. He's a social butterfly and kind of the ultimate gentleman. So when I first saw the tiny weird "storage" room it seemed obvious that we made it into a speak easy. Also he was heavily influenced by his time at the Harvard lampoon and in one of our first meetings he was telling me about how magical and secret that building was. We couldn't really incorporate that intimate, dark vibe in the rest of the house because it's such a California house but this was our opportunity to give a nod to the lampoon.
• About the hidden door- When I was a little kid, we were staying at a family friend's chateau in the south of France and he had (what seemed like) endless secret passages. Hidden doors in the backs of closets that would open to entirely secret rooms. It left a MAJOR impression on my 8year old nerdy self. I'd probably put secret rooms in every house if I could. I don't think i'm alone on this one? Who hates secret doors and passages? No human I know. The original door was glass and for obvious reasons was all kinds of wrong for a secret bar so it was kind of a no-brainer.
• Lighting is a mix- Edison pendants from Big Daddy's Antiques, Sarafatti chandelier is from HD buttercup and then pendant over game table is vintage flea market.
• The chairs were all from a thrift store! We recovered in ombré blue velvets.
• The barstools are vintage Saarinen- I was really jazzed about these!
• The mirrored shelving above the bar- custom made bar & shelving by Chris Lumpkin Furniture
Thanks, Alan! Also BIG THANK YOU to Sally Breer

Wow...speakeasy room...that is sooo ballin.
None of it is my style but the I love the house itself. The view must be fabulous.
I love this house! And I love Parks and Rec - it's one of my favorite shows! The speakeasy is pretty great and all the seating looks very comfortable.
This is fantastic! It looks so comfortable and fun.
Oh my goodness- I could pee myself, I love this house! What a fancy schmancy but FUN home. I love that "I do things like get in a taxi and say, 'The Library, and set up on it!'" poster. I need it in my home- any idea where to buy it? I somehow doubt it's from Target.
roxy, I don't know where you could find that specific piece of art, but it's a David Foster Wallace quote. I bet people on etsy have been doing all sorts of things to it.
LMAO - love your sense of style and humor Alan. Well done.
Folks--the art is, if I'm not mistaken, by the artist Wayne White. He was a designer for Pee Wee's Playhouse, and has done a lot of paintings where he takes an old landscapes he finds at thrift stores then paints text on top of them. I recommend his book "Maybe Now I'll Get the Respect I So Richly Deserve."
This place makes me smile. =)
LOVE this place. That is one Lichtenstein I wouldn't get tired of looking at!
I want to be BFFs with Alan. This house is so awesome! Totally my style and my sense of humor both in the answers to the questionaire and the decorating of the house. Love Parks and Rec, love this house, love Alan's sense of humor.
Per the post about the painting with the quote: "The painting above the mantel-It's a quote from David Foster Wallace (one of Alan's favorite authors) I found the big piece at a thrift store and then just used letter decals from the hardware store to spell out the quote."
What an awesome idea that I may have to lift one day...
I am so in love... With this home, with the owner, and with the designer. There are so, so many ideas I'm going to steal from this, I'm practically giddy. My home is quite similar, except it's the Target-knockoff version, but I am intensely inspired. My January's Cure just got a facelift!
Alan, can we be BFFs? Your house is amazing, as is the show you write for. Love!!
I absolutely love this house and Parks & Rec. So many great elements to this place.
The picture in your bathroom, is that a shot of Bill Murray in Rushmore? If so, I must find the source! :)
the bar has been set high for 2013 house tours!
An exciting tour and view.
I like the masculine feel of the bar and seating areas.
Anyone have the source for the white tables in the sitting area of the bedroom?
The writers of Parks & Rec should live like kings. It warms my heart to see that it's happening. Alan, if you're the one who wrote the line "wear your yoga pants" as said to Ron Swanson in an episode last season, then you also deserve another one of these houses in the second location of your choice.
But Alan, those walls of empty bookshelves are a cry for help.
Love your home... my husband just purchased molded eames chair knockoffs for me from Amazon too! They are awesome! =)
I need to know more about the hand-shaped guitar hangers, please!
This tour made me SO happy; a hilarious interview and a beautiful, interesting home. It is hard to narrow down what I love most! And that speakeasy is one of the coolest things I've ever seen!
Your home is gorgeous! Love everything about it!
In defense of Sally (whom I clearly have a crush on! Lol)... that she 'got it wrong' about the name of one of the most important (read: overused) design styles of the decade makes me like her all the more. What's so appealing about the house, and I suspect what many are responding so positively to, is how unpretentious and yet current and stylish she's managed to be with her decor. Part of that lack of pretension, as evidenced in the high-LARE-ious answers to the questionnaire, is getting things 'rightly wrong.' Sometimes decorators, professional or not, take ourselves a tad too seriously, or try too hard. I love the balance and wonky-ness of this place, and the two responsible for it.
(Now I'm going to have to start watching Parks & Rec... That's a lot of NetFlixing to do...)
For the love of GOD, what is the name of the paint on the Speakeasy walls??? I am desperate for that moody hue!
Full of admiration for the talents and tastes of both writer and designer here.
Hi Everyone,
So happy you all love this house tour as much as I had fun shooting it for Sally and Alan.
Just to clarify, Sally only answered the Resource list about the furniture etc. Alan answered the first part of the survey... :)
I think Sally is out of town, but I'll try to get you that paint color from the bar :)
The loveliest thing is that he's not filled the big spaces with clutter. I feel like we could breathe here, whether one person or a whole crowd. Well done! www.peacefulones.blogspot.com
My first thought was "Oh golly,mid century modern,I havent seen a house done in that for at least an hour",but after looking at it a few times,I could probably force myself to live here! Very nicely done.
Your home is amazing. I love all your vintage finds and art work. I plan on stealing some of your ideas! Thanks for sharing.
Amazing light fittings- reminds me that for a complete/finished look, I must remember all the finer details! Love that you "brought them into the light" (pun intended) and made a feature of what many of us try to ignore.
Love the furniture and accessories! Love the bedroom light, and the blue ceiling with the white walls. It is clean, m.c. modern, and warm with the wood floors, wood fireplace surround etc... Very nicely done!
I'm suffering from secret room envy, but I wonder about the practicality of a bookcase door. It could possibly be very heavy, and I would most likely knock objects off/over every... single... time.
Best AT write-up ever!
wonderful house; question: what is the subject matter of the large-scale photo in the living room, and where is it from? thanks
I stand totally corrected. But if you like the art, do check out Wayne White!
DFW art for the win. The IJ quote on display in my apartment if a bit more macabre: Te Occidere Possunt Sed Te Edere Non Possunt Nefas Est.
Note to Alan-
If you return to your well appointed home and discover a drunken red head swilling the hooch from your speakeasy (while attempting to steal your DFW painting and Remington), do the appropriate thing and buy her a burrito. Then buy some books for those empty shelves.
Very very interesting! I really like Lichtenstein's art work!
This looks like a really cool show home to me, not a place somebody actually lives in. Don't get me wrong, I like the way it looks, but it's all so obviously been....designed. The three mirrors in the bathroom, the butterfly chair, sheepskin rug, vintage type writers, mirror-vase-painting arrangements: we've all seen it before. Perhaps the shelves are empty because Alan likes empty shelves, but to me, it feels like he's never there. I miss the soul in this house. I do love the speakeasy though!
Wow! This is way too cool. Probably my favourite house tour EVER!!
No one deserves to live in a house this nice!
Dear Mr. Yang - unfortunately, there was an oversight by the photographer and there was no photo included of your toilet. Please add a photo of the toilet and surrounds. I would like to see how it is incorporated into overall design scheme. Seat down, please.
wow I love this place!
I just love this house. I could move right in and not change a thing. I like the paint colors, I like the art, I like the furnishings, I LOVE the "secret" room, I love the views - I like it all.
Alan's apartment is pretty sweet. Great job college roomie!
Now if only I can find a way out of the speakeasy.
Do I take a right and past the torture rack and medieval stocks or a left past the statue of Romney and Obama kissing?
It was a left...and they weren't kissing.
The only thing that could improve on this would have been Amy Poehler petting a kitten in by the fireplace.
I love the secret room! That it exists and also the way it's decorated.
Best. Survey. Ever! I almost spit out my lunch while reading this at my desk I was laughing so hard.
Native Californians are wary of hanging mirrors over the bed...love the speakeasy!
Does anyone know what kind of plant is that in the corner in the first photo?
I AM SO JEALOUS RIGHT NOW! Alan, please adopt me so I can move in with you, or at least invite me over. Your house is perfection.
Please Alan, what is the name of the paint in the speakeasy room? Is it a dark teal?
Tom Haverford would definitely approve.
Very cool! (showing my age here....)
Gorgeous! When can I move in?
One of my favorite house tours.
"Biggest Embarrassment: I do not deserve to live in a house this nice." Best comment by a homeowner ever, Can I hug you?
Hilarious house tour! Just like Parks & Recreation I am still laughing...oh and an amazing space as well.
"Biggest Embarrassment: I do not deserve to live in a house this nice."
Nonsense, Alan -- Treat yo' self!
Seriously, beautiful home though.
What a great home. I love everything about it, despite it being a completely different style than my dream space/current space.
I'll say it once again....good design and well-thought out and loved pieces and placement have the ability to transcend "genre" or "era" every time. Nicely done!
What an awesome place. The "secret" room is especially awesome!
Love! Love! Love!
Can anyone tell me where the white tables in the bedroom can be found?
Lovely home by the way!!!
Good God, this is spectacular. Secret passages? Yes, please!
Oh my STARS the Rushmore print in the bathroom! Where did it come from?
2013 just got rad.
Dear artfemme11,
You must be a delight at parties.
The Rest of Us
Hot damn. Pure Awesomeness.
Great tour!
Anyone that's interested in the furniture of Amsterdam Modern should visit marktplaats.nl. This is a Dutch site comparable to Craigslist. Same stuff but much cheaper!
I love the style of this house!
Noticed the Bowie pic, so think I,ll come and visit so we can have a drink in your Pub, oops I mean speakeasy. x
Add me to the list of infatuated/obsessed with Alan, Sally, and this place. You had me at DFW. Particularly love the fireplace, headboard... and WTF is the color of that speakeasy wall paint? Must repaint one of my walls immediately.
I love everything about this home! Can't imagine the views either.....................wow!
Gorgeously designed. Totally stealing the speakeasy room (if I ever own a home with an extra storage room).
The cat's pajamas! If I could just have the office, the speakeasy, and that pair of chairs facing the view (view must come with, of course), I would be in heaven. Enjoyed the write-up.
Does anyone know what kind of range that is?
This is an answer to my earlier comment. The plant in the dinning room is apparently a fiddle leaf fig.
First off, this is probably my favorite Tour ever. Second, those 2 Elbow Chairs in the kitchen area have the puffiest padded seats I ever saw! I NEED them! But where? I'm sure they're prolly vintage but does anyone know where i can find ones like that??? Pretty please?
Just discovered this tour & must comment that while the design is lovely, the art makes the tour probably the best. But that's just my opinion. I have a crush on Ed Ruscha. And he has kissed me.
Lovely home for sure.
I am wondering if anyone knows who made the dark grey/black upholstered chair and matching ottoman in the office. I have two of these (in a very cool lime green naugahyde that desperately needs to be replaced). I got the chairs several years ago at an antique store for a song and I would love to see what the originals looked like before I get them recovered. There are no tags or makers marks that I can find on them.
thanks for your help!

Ceiling Lighting
Ceiling lighting is probably the easiest kind of lighting to pull off, as many of us have probably reached that point where we've changed light bulbs, or took down a lamp because it was malfunctioning. The ceiling is generally the most logical place to install lighting fixtures, especially for direct, functional lighting.
LED lights are currently replacing incandescent light bulbs as a household lighting staple. While the price might make people drag their feet a little, in the long run LED lights are energy savers and help you save on extra electricity costs. Ceiling lights that make use of LED lights also have the option of either using colored LED lights (which are prettier than normal lights) or standard ones. It's easier to play with ceiling lighting with LED lights.
On the other hand, ceiling lighting does not need to serve a directly functional purpose; it can also offer ambient lighting in the form of recessed lights. Yellow lighting, in particular, is great for ceiling ambient lighting, lending a laid-back, casual sort of air to the room. It also shows certain colors in a better light.
Ceiling lighting can get extremely intricate and artsy, too. Chandeliers come in all forms, from different metal finishes to crystal or diamond accents. The beautiful designs make chandeliers a largely decorative form of lighting, but are also extremely functional as overhead lighting.
Our selections offer a wide selection of ceiling lights that combine both functionality with unique designs and reasonable prices.
Please tell us what you thought of this, and feel free to ask questions...

Crystal Style Tips
Crystal light fixtures brings light to life and bring sparkle and elegance to your room. For centuries crystal lighting has been a symbol of class and status. Named for the Greek word for ice, "krystallos," crystal lighting possesses an ethereal beauty that has enchanted mankind throughout the ages.

Energy Star lighting
Energy Star lighting is good for the environment, as well. According to Energy Star, if every homeowner in the United States replaced just five of their most utilized lamps with Energy Star approved lamps, the effect would be to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from nearly 10 million vehicles.
Lighting: The Next Generation
The choices of green lighting include artificial sunlight that can be used as a remedy for winter depression when the days are shorter. Another green lighting choice is full spectrum lighting which creates an effect similar to natural sunlight. Beyond that, Energy Star has predicted that if people in the U.S. were to trade five of their inefficient lamps with Energy Star approved lamps, greenhouse gases can be dramatically reduced.
