Goooooooood morning fandom! (Actually its nearing 2am).
It appears I've been away for a while again… Sorry o.o The last two posts on the blog weren't mine, as well, those were made by my co-admin, who unfortunately was no longer able to work on the blog after a while. So, once again, if you'd like to co-admin, please let me know!
Also, I do actually have a somewhat decent excuse as to my lack of posting - I got a new job, and it's a full time job, so when I come home I spend about an hour on the computer (most of it to get an episode of Smallville in!) and then I pass out. So, it sucks, but yes.
Which brings me to my next point (not really) that, I'm now taking requests. I know I've always taken them, but I was never really great at filling them, only, now, since my creative juices have all gone to me smiling four eight hours a day at rude customers, I need all the ideas I can get. Of course, if I fill your request, it will say so in the description of the post, so you get the credit you deserve.
One thing to remember about requests though, is they need to be something that can be turned into a conversation on facebook. Some requests I've gotten in the past have been extremely difficult and I couldn't think of a way to turn them into a facebook conversation. Of course, you can send in fun songs, or serious songs, and I can turn those into fb chats as well. It's easy enough.
And finally, while I beg for your forgivness (again) at my much too long absense, I'd like to know what you'd like to see from the blog in the time to come. Anything that needs improvement (other than me)? Anything at all that you feel could improve on this blog, please let me know and I will get right on it. So, I'll try and get some stuff out tonight, and hopefully, when I wake up before work, and when I get home from work, there will be some requests in my ask. (Feel free to send more than one!)
So, obligatory question mark for the questions here?
Any requests?
Poor Toilet.
Alright guys. Today there's gonna be a little construction on the blog.
Either go into the submit or into the ask and send in your idea of a conversation. Now, it'd be great if you'd send in two just so we get an idea of what you're capable of. Also, as I've neglected to mention this in the past, please include which ships you'd be willing to make conversations about, how often you'd be able to post (you don't have to be able to post 24/7, we're just trying to gauge how many people we'll need) if there's anything you'd be uncomfortable filling requests wise. Sometimes people ask for raunchy or fluffy or plain humor, and it'd help a lot if we knew how to separate the requests amongst us.
Alright, I think that's all for the PSA today. So, any questions, concerns or… anything, really, just ask here, or in the ask.
Obligatory question mark?
Alright guys. Tumblr flagged this blog as nsfw so, the only way this blog gets any views or anything is by word of mouth (aka, reblogs). Because it was flagged, my posts will no longer appear in any tags or anything.
Ope, I was somehow able to untag it as nsfw! So, this problem has been resolved o.o

"These announcements are absolutely beautiful. I called and placed our order over the phone and spoke to a gentleman that was extremely helpful in placing our order. I am very pleased with the way these announcements turned out for our new beautiful bundle of joy!!! Thank you Tinyprints!!!"
"This card is the perfect way to introduce the new baby in our family!! It is simply gorgeous!! We are thrilled to share this card with everyone! Amazingly chic!"
"I used this card for our daughter's birth announcement and it was perfect! The paper is sturdy and the printing was outstanding. I would highly recommend this design."
"When I first received these announcements I was very upset because the font in green was barely legible - it was way too light and it doesn't look this light on their site. So I contacted customer service and they got back to me immediately and they sent me new announcements with darker green font color without any hassle. They look great and I am so pleased with them! I have used tiny prints numerous times and this was the first complaint I had and their customer service was wonderful! I will continue to use them in the future."
"I was extemely pleased with how my newborn announcement turned out! I've received several comments From recipients that have said it was the cutest announcement they've ever seen!"

Steven Soderbergh took the sound and color out of 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' — and you can watch the whole thing.
All four movies are included in this set that's 61% off its $76.99 list price. The deal is only is only available today though, as it's Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day.
Love this idea.
The new deal gives Disney marketing and distribution rights to future films as well as retaining its Lucasfilms ownership rights. Which basically means they've got the whole shebang now. Paramount, on the other hand, isn't left without any Indiana of its own. The studio will continue to have distribution rights to the first four Indiana films.
The set includes all four movies and is available today only at 60% off the $99.98 list price. Snakes not included.
Also on sale …
- The Dark Knight Rises Blu-ray/DVD/Digital $18.99
- Girls: The Complete First Season Blu-ray/DVD $25.99
- Princess Bride: 25th Anniversary Blu-ray $10.
(found via /Film)
That's 50% off the $99.98 list price, Short Round. The set includes all four Indy movies, though you never have to watch the fourth one. Available for the rest of the week.
Also up for sale this week is this three-film set from Martin Scorsese, featuring 'The Aviator', 'Goodfellas' and 'The Departed' for just $10 on Blu-ray. 60% off the $25 list price.
Artist Chris G. made these portraits of various pairs of characters that share physical of psychological similarities, even though they're part of different worlds.

Buy an ice cream shake at its stores and receive a coupon for another free shake anytime before June 27.
Before, the company offered a soft-serve that was not ice cream, the company said.
"The new ice cream … is richer, it is thicker, it is creamier than our current soft serve, which is what we have to call it because that is what it has been; a non-ice cream, lower-fat dairy product," J. Clifford Hudson, Sonic's [More]

Blue Bell ice cream's popularity in South Florida is surpassing expectations
- 3:22 pm Monday, April 20th, 2009 by Allison Ross
Fellow reporter Susan Salisbury did a story a few months back about Texas-based Blue Bell ice cream coming to South Florida grocery stores.
(Thanks to her and her story, all of us in the newsroom got to taste the Blue Bell ice cream … delish!)
The company has now released a statement saying that sales of its containers of creamy goodness are doing much better than projected.
Apparently, customers are buying the ice cream more quickly than workers can stock them, so the company has had to hire more employees and add extra delivery trucks to keep up with demand.

Why is there so much uncertainty and disagreement about the
Last Days?
To many people, the Book of Revelation is a
mystery - they're not sure what it teaches. Much of this confusion is
caused by Bible teachers who step beyond the boundaries of Scripture and try to
speculate about what will happen in the future - which can lead to opinions and
guesses that are seriously amiss.
When it comes to the last days, how can we
know for sure what the Bible says? By letting Scripture speak for itself,
and by carefully separating the facts from the possibilities. That's what
author David Levy does in his authoritative new commentary on Revelation.
You'll discover a surprisingly clear picture of what we can expect in the last
days and find answers to key questions such as . . .
How can we know if the end times are near?
What can we know about the Antichrist?
In what order will the events of the last days take
What will happen to Israel during the Tribulation?
What will life be like during the Millennial Kingdom?
A valuable resource that describes what we
can expect as we approach earth's final hour.

177 Mauk, GA Appliance Manufacturers and Showrooms
As anyone who's ever tried to fix a broken garbage disposal or install a new microwave oven can tell you, sometimes hiring an appliance professional is worth every bit of the cost. Appliance problems can be time consuming for many homeowners to diagnose and repair, and a botched attempt can lead to bigger hassles and more money out of pocket.

I'll try specifically not to recap any actual plot things that happen because I know at least one of my followers hasn't gotten their copy yet, but I'm just a bit over halfway done with the book and I don't know if I can go on and remain, like, mentally healthy. I'm developing this really thick paranoia that something terrible is going to happen to either Hazel or Augustus, and it's hard to wade through. I don't really want to sleep because I feel like I am contractually obligated, as a witness to their thoughts and actions and stuff, to read until there isn't anything left to read.
Ugh. The problems of a reader who always gets too emotionally invested in her books.
I have the feeling I may be ugly sobbing on my cousin's floor tomorrow—I will finish this book tomorrow.
My hat's off to John Green. Really. It's been a long time since I read a book that made me feel ALL THE FEELS (as he so eloquently put it) and I'm really grateful that TFioS came about just when I was starting to feel stagnant and moody for want of emotional vent.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I think that this school has done well in the last year with the new principal in junior high and high. I would like to see the teachers do better in working with the students.
The Slater School District, especially the Slater Alexander Elementary school is a farce. There is a certain group of kids, whose parents happen to be friends with many of the teachers, seem to be favored more than others. As well, they get preferential treatment when it comes to community sports. Not only that, but the parents of these kids also get to make the rules and are the ones to set up everything. That would be an excellent thing, had it not been for the way 'They' run things. I've had two children attend from Kindergarten on up, one is a junior in high school, the other is in fifth grade. The high school one has been picked at and bullied by teachers and it is now my fifth graders turn.Both children had done quite well until they are in classes with certain teachers.
What happened in third grade - the earlier grades things were great and teachers were very good - but 3rd grade is not what i had hoped for - when you talk to the superintendent he appears to listen, but you can tell he is somewhere else - limited offerings and it seems like there is little learning going on - not happy with the staff for those students
I currently have two children within the Slater School district. I have been very pleased with the level of interest the faculty seem to have related to the success of their students. I have frequently called to the school to address a situation and have had immediate access to the faculty or the administration. It may be the 'small town' mentality, but it is wonderful! While I would like a little more detail in the communication the school's programs have with the parents, I am very pleased with the educational experience my children have had within this school. Now, if only the community would get behind the band director more...
My son was in Mrs. Willis kindergartener class and was sent to the counselor and principal during the first week of school. Though through the guidance and leadership ended the school year with the reading ability and course completion far beyond the years of a kindrgartener. School and progress in acheivement was truely unbeleivable.
My grandson is in Mrs. Wilson kindergartener class and he was so scare to start and she has made him feel so good to be in school and now he says he a big boy now he's in school , but our problem now is tha he wants to take Mrs Wilson on into 1st grade..he said that he like's her being his teacher that he don't want any other teacher , that she is doing just find..My daugther and I really like's Mrs. Wilson and we know this is her 1st year here and we think she will be here for years to come..Keep up the good work Mrs. Wilson.
We have had a wonderful experience with our kindergartener this year. Very involved principal and counselor. Mrs. Willis is an exceptional teacher!

I have very oily, sensitive, acne prone skin (i do have a lot of acne and scarring) and decided to give this a try. Well, the first night i used it, it broke me out. BIG TIME. I had little red bumps on my forehead, nose, sides of my cheeks, chin, etc. So I thought, "hmm maybe it's just that I randomly broke out." I decided to use it again and IT BROKE ME OUT EVEN WORSE! I stopped using this product and all my acne (that has formed during the time period of using this product DISSAPEARED!) Its also sad because this does contain salacylic acid which is good for acne. I don't recommend this cleanser at all! I definitely won't be repurchasing.

I really like this cleanser. I'm 21, so I don't have wrinkles, but I would like to prevent them which is why I wanted to try this cleanser. It makes my skin feel very soft and smooth. Check out my full review here!: http://allthingsbeautyxo.wordpress.com/
This cleanser is fine, although it doesn't say ANYWHERE that it has exfoliating beads and that is exactly what I didn't want. I wanted just a plain cleanser. The beads are so minuscule but still the packaging is misleading. Overall it's a great cleanser, I always love Olay, but you shouldn't exfoliate everyday it's bad for your skin. Now I need another new cleanser.

UPDATE** After trying this over and over I realized it DOES break me out. Wow totally stinks. Or it's just that my skin hates me and this does not help, either way. Bummer. Original review below.
This is now called "classic" age defying blady blah, same ingredients. AND is also the same ingredient list as the Olay 7 Total Effects Blemish control cleanser. I bought this and I do notice it's a little thinner in consistancy and the beads are less than the blemish one. This seems a little more gentle as well. I guess the ingredients are the same but the amouts are a little different. This is cheaper as well. I actually rused the Olay 7 blemish for a long time becuase I thought it's one of the few things that didn't clog or over dry me. It's not a miracle and doesn't stop every skin issue, and sometimes I wonder if it's causing problems, but compared to the drama I've had with every other line, it's pretty darn close. Don't think this will take off makeup, I have a second evening/PM/nighttime cleanser for that. I'm tryin this now for the AM, and want to cleanse, but not strip my skin. The beads are pretty small and this is creamy, but not SUPER creamy or greasy. It does feel like it's barely doing anything but I like that because I dry out if I use a night time cleanser for both. So for that it's great (and sort of moisturizes so you don't really need one. And I break out to most so that helps me tremendously). I dig it.

Been using this for a little over a week and so far it's working well. My skin needs moisture but I have to be careful since it 's prone to break out and clog easily. I'm also getting fine lines and so anything that strips my skin of moisture only adds to this issue. This contains BHA and glycerine so it fits both of the needs my skin has and my skin has been responding very well. Even skin tone (yay!), no breakouts and it doesn't leave my skin feeling stripped. Only complaint is that this doesn't clean makeup off very well, especially waterproof. Other than that it's a nice simple face wash that is under $5. Will keep using as long as my skin keeps getting along with it.

I liked my other Olay products, so I thought why not give this a try since I just needed to add something to reach the free shipping @ drugstore.com. I dont remember the price, but it was like under $5 IIRC.
Been using it for about 2 weeks now, and I'm not even sure if it is really a cleanser?! I use this during shower to wash my face and remove makeup. I usually wear mineral MU, which shouldnt be hard to remove with just facial cleanser. Everytime after I used this cleanser, my face was still oily. Did not feel clean at all like with other cleanser. And whats worse, it broke me out =_= I barely get any acne, but with just 2 wks of use and now i got lil acne on my forehead and chin... argggggg >< I think i will just toss my bottle and definitely no repurchase for me.
I've been using this stuff since my teens. I have dry skin so while I need a sudsy cleanser to take off my makeup at night, I like something creamy in the morning. This stuff exfoliates slightly and leaves my skin feeling smooth and looking bright. It removes any oil/cream from overnight without drying me out. I'm in love with it and I hope it sticks around forever.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
It's not the worst, but it's not the best. It didn't cause my skin to break-out, it didn't dry out my skin, but it didn't exfoliate my skin. The micro-beads should just be done away with, because this is lotion like, it doesn't get sudsy. That doesn't bother me, but the fact I can't wash my make-up off with this is frustrating. It doesn't stick? Hopefully that makes sense. If I use this with my Sephora brush, it just gets filmy and stuck inside the bristles. And this isn't effective when you use your hands. I guess what i'm trying to say, is, it's not bad. On a desperate occasion it wouldn't hurt me to use it. I just didn't gain any results from it. I'm beta hydroxy sensitive, and this didn't burn thankfully.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i wanted to really like this cleanser after reading the reviews. while i liked the beads and how moisturized my skin felt afterwards, i broke out after two days. i tried convincing myself that maybe it wasn't because of the cleanser, but after a week of not using it, my skin is clearing up again.what a shame.
I love this. It is very gentle, so don't expect your skin to feel stripped and dry after. It leaves my skin feeling baby smooth. While it won't work as easily for heavy-duty eyeliner, it is very efficient for the average makeup user. I definitely plan to repurchase and recommend it to anyone looking for a simple, no-fuss facial cleanser.

Corona Sofa Series
Even More Trickle down. Reader Mary sent us an email professing her love for her new Corona Sofa from Macy's (above, right). Mary compared her purchase to Design Within Reach's Bantam Sofa (above, left) with its tapered wooden legs and button-tufted back. The prices for the various Corona piecesat Macy's are insanely low right now � we couldn't believe it...
The 81.5 inch, three cushion sofa is on sale for $699.
The 60 inch two cushion sofa is on sale for $649.
The chair is on sale for $549.
Sets are also available and even cheaper!
Though we haven't sat on it, we're leaning towards preferring the Corona Sofa to the Bantam Sofa because of the multiple seat cushions and fabulous pricing. Also, it isn't pictured but we love the idea of the Corona loveseat �at only 60 inches wide, it is a good solution for tiny spaces that can't fit even the smallest Bantam Sofa. Thanks Mary!

aaron, I am surprised that you like the 3 cushion sofa better. As I was looking at them, my thought was how much cleaner the lines of the sofa are with the single cushion.
Room and Board has two similar options, Andre & Eugene:
That is seriously inexpensive... although I can't help but think these look like they were stolen from the set of the Dick Van Dyke show.
Anybody have any idea about the quality of the Macy's piece? I had nearly talked my husband into the Bantam a couple of months ago but just couldn't talk him into the price. I saw the Macy's piece in a catalog but didn't realize just how close it was to the Bantam until I saw them side by side in this post. I'm sure my husband would go for the Macy's version, but I don't want to spend $700 on something that's going to fall apart in a year...
I actually went to check this sofa out on Sunday. It wasn't bad in person, but I didn't like how the seat cushions got sort of messed up when you sat on them. If you're sitting on one cushion, the one next to you is not level with the one you're sitting down on. Which I guess would be common among sofas with multiple cushions, but I feel as though I haven't noticed this in other sofas (at least not as much as I noticed it on this one). Also, upon getting up, I noticed all the cushions need to be straightened out a bit. Perhaps if the cushions were in some way attached to the base? Nothing horrible of course, but just two minor issues I had.
Oh, and the fabric seems as though it would get snagged a lot.
Otherwise, it was pretty comfortable. Not as nice as some other similar sofas I've looked at, but, considering the price, it's a pretty good deal.
I agree that the Macy's one look very much like the DWR one, BUT I have to say I'm not a fan of 3-cushion sofas. If only 2 people are sitting on it it seems like you're always sliding into the cushion cleavage and it makes it very hard to sit side by side for some good cuddle time. I also prefer the cleaner lines of a single or 2 cushion sofa. But then again...it is all about personal preference. I'm very happy that Mary loves her new sofa and I hope it gives her many evenings of happy lounging!
Mason - I am often torn between single/multiple cushions on sofas. I worry that inferior single-cushion models will become uneven over time. I find it much easier to reshape smaller cushions for upkeep. I have no experience to back this up...just an inkling of suspicion. I don't think it's a problem for small loveseats, but when you start having a single cushion that is over 80 inches long it worries me!
I'm using this sofa in the client consultation area of my photo studio. Form was more important than function to me in the decision making process. Although, the quality is higher than what you would expect for the price (it has hard wood guts). The lines are not as nice as the DWR sofa, but for the price of Bantam I was able to get a sofa, love seat, shag carpet and Noguchi (ish) coffee table. :)
This is my 1st time commenting. Hi everyone!
I've had the Corona sofa from Macy's for a few weeks now. While I prefer the one cusion version from DWR, you can't beat the price on the Macy's sofa.
My review:
Super comfy - both the cushions and the fabric (I had a great nap on Saturday)
Haven't had any problems with the fabric snagging - don't really think it will be an issue
The cushions do mess a bit, but it's not too bad
Hmm, my big concern is being able to flip cushions in the event of spillage, stains, cat puke, etc. - that's why I immediately preferred the 3-cushion as well!
I actually like the 3-cushion better its the line of the arms i'm not crazy about, but for that price...can't beat it!
I personally hate the multiple cushions bcs they always seem to have individual lives. They never seem to behave the same, one always stays at a different level from the others... But then again, I never had spillage or cats, not that I could be able to live peacefully knowing I have a stain on my sofa. Just take the cushion out and wash....
Wow, good eye, Mary. Congrats, it looks really nice.
I've got to express how great I think Macy's sofa quality is--I mean, this is a generalization, since I only own one, but I went everywhere looking for a clean-lined but slipcovered and cozy sofa. I also wanted down cushions but that put most everything I looked at in the 3K range, which was not in my budget.
I was shocked to find exactly what I was looking for at Macy's, slipcovered, beautiful lines, kiln-dried frame, and down cushions, for under $1500 (after tax and delivery, which, BTW, happened just 3 days later). The sofa is a year and a half old and has held up beautifully. With the quality and the customer service, I have to highly recommend Macy's for sofas.
I thought DWR's Bantam sofa was very cool-looking in photos... and then I saw the real thing in a store. The top horizontal seam/edge of the seat (where your inside knees would be if you were sitting on it) is always all messed up and wavy... it's not very well made I don't think. The seam itself seems to be easily pulled away from the corner/edge of the seat cushion, so it looks sloppy and misaligned. For a $1700 sofa it ends up looking kind of cheap. Maybe that's partly because so many people sit on them in the stores, but I would be wary.
The best version of this kind of sofa I've seen around is from Skypad, a Canadian company. They were selling them at ABC for a while, for $1500... it was very sleek and Florence-Knoll-esque. ABC doesn't carry them any more but maybe somewhere else in NYC...?
Re: sofa cushions--when we bought our (2-cushion) sofa from Storehouse a few years ago, the saleswoman said that you should regularly pick up the bottom cushions and sort of bounce them on their ends, like how you would fluff up a smaller pillow. Also, you should rotate them around and flip them over every so often to even out the wear. I've done this and I think it does help.
FYI, the DWR Annex in Seacaucus is filled with Bantams right now. Not the returned, unusable ones either. Under $1K, too.
Call for descriptions -- the salespeople are generally helpful.
I'll offer my review of the Bantam sofa. I've had mine for a few months, and I absolutely love it. It is super comfortable, plus the proportions are correct for me. That is, I don't feel like I have to slouch or need longer legs to fit. The top of the seat cushion isn't wavy (like the one somebody saw in the store), but the upholstery isn't tight, either. If I were a perfectionist, I'd be smoothing it out constantly, but as I'm not, I just think it looks comfy.
Oh, but how I love my Bantam. We have the long one, and though it was pricey, it is such a nice, clean looking davenport. Esp. in "sage" which adds to it's very mod vertical nature. It looks great w/ my vintage Danish Modern pieces. (I did have the legs stripped and stained a medium oak so as to work better w/ my rosewood end tables.)
Gus Modern has two sofa's like those too. The Rochelle and the Jane Sofa. They are beautiful!
Bobby Berk spam alert! Bobby Berk spam alert!
If you want the *Gus Modern stuff, go right to the source, their Chelsea store here in NYC, or gusmodern.com for other retailers, like South Beach Style in Ft. Lauderdale.
What do you folks think of this sofa from Urban Outfitters? I've been eyeing it for a while, and the price is right. The corona love seat is another contender.
Have any of you tried it out? Is it comfy?
my url was caught off. It's the Mid-Century Sofa ProductID=29968
"stolen from the set of the Dick Van Dyke show."
Well, that's exactly why I would buy it!
My vote is still for the Bantam Sofa because of it's (noticeably) cleaner lines and more pronounced details... and as we all know it's the details that make the difference.
The price on the Corona isn't too bad but knowing that you compromised on the specific look/detail you like for a few bucks isn't worth it... unless you plan on changing it in a year, then go for the deal. :)
Yeah what's with the Bobby Berk thing?Its annoying!
Another option, perhaps? tin_angel why would that annoy you?
I purchased a DWR Bantam sofa a couple years ago and it still looks good. I prefer the one cushion style as it looks cleaner (I have the 73" size). My only gripe is the fabric (cotton with no stain guard). Clean friends are a must with this one.
I'm chiming in with my approval of the Bantam sofa. Like some of DWR's other pieces, it actually looks better in person than it does in photographs.
When I first saw the Bantam in a DWR showroom, I was reminded greatly of a very beautiful, very well made suit--the sort of item that will never, ever go out of style. The detailing was exquisite.
I like the Dick Van Dyke reference, but to me, the Bantam was the personification of JFK.
The Bantam is priced extremely reasonably as far as such furnishings go--I don't know why one would ever bother with the risk of a bad knockoff.
Oh Yodeller you are SO above us all who can't own the lovely "davenport" that you, you the person who gets to cool their snobby, hateful behind on. Lord, how I would LOVE to see a real photo of you, but Lord knows I already know what your life is like, you are obviously miserable. You really need to be pitied. Go see your Psychiatrist more often. :)
the price for the corona sofa is now: $629.10. why not buy it?
whoops the link:
I'm wondering if anyone whose bought this sofa has found a way to deal with the moving/popping up of the seat cushions?
i bought this sofa and i loooooooove it.
i'm not having trouble with my cushions popping up. velcro, maybe? do you mean while sitting on it, gillfield, or when exiting?
we bought the sofa and loveseat a couple months ago and we love it. we have a large dog and she seems to love it too. she only puts off a little bit of hair, but even with the chocolate-colored couch, i never have a problem with it sticking. we also don't have the problem with the cushions popping up. so far, we're really happy with our purchase and would recommend it.
I have the corona sofa in cafe noir (it's darker than the online photo) and I LURVE it! The fabric is phenominal. The cushions move a bit yes, but not a biggie. I'm super happy that I got this couch for $699. =)
I have been searching for furniture for months and I have had the corona on my list since the beginning. While I like the DWR sofa the single cushion is a little too sleek and modern. The three cushions of the corona actually warm the sofa up. The lines are still clean but not cold like some of the DWR pieces. Anyway I was in Macys yesterday and found the corona sofa and chair on super sale. Sofa was 539.00 and the chair 419.00 plus opened an acount and got an extra 10% off. Can't wait for it to be delivered
Rossi, where and how did you get it for 539? it is listed for 699 at macys.com...
Macy's in Scottsdale AZ, the associate at Macy's led us to duplicate floor model that they received and had to get rid of.
We just bought the chair...mainly because the similar ones from R&B and C&B don't have removable legs. VERY good value!
I had this sofa delivered three days ago........Where do I begin
At first I thought it seemed a little different, I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Then I wondered why the cushions seemed so much more firm(ok they are new) My feet didn't quite reach the floor but they did in the the store quite nicely too. This caused me to be tilted back in an uncomfortabe position. The three cusions protruded out beyond the edge of the sofa making the actual depth of the sofa nearly 40". In my space, every inch matters and I am sure it was not advertised to be this size and the height is an inch or so shorter(a plus).The cushions themselves are quite comfy(more puffy than I think acceptabe for the style, but again, new. It does require regular touching up to make it look as crisp as the style dictates.(2 cushions would be an improvement)The end seats have a little point in the corners so all 3 are not quite interchangable. The 'horizon' on the back seat of the couch is a little wavy and the cushions are a little lumpy looking. Just the facts.... I still think a very cool sofa for the money. But you get what you pay for. Mine has a fabric defect on the front frame and, well, that has made up MY mind. You should go to the store, keep it in perspective, ...Me, I'm making the treck into Soho to look at spending a little more for something I'll be happy with everyday. Room & Board has loveseats with this style that have seat lengths & prices very comparable. Really!
This is actually a question. I am planning on buying this couch and I am looking for two swivel chairs to place across from it. I want them to be swivel so that people can turn towards the tv is necessary, but no all the time. All of the swivel chairs I've looked up don't seem to go with mid-cent. furniture. Any suggestions..I'm at the end of my rope.
Okay, old post but could anyone that owns this sofa tell me if its legs are removable? Thanks!!!
i just visited macy's today and bought the corona in dark brown. it's on sale for $699 and i got another $100 off for opening a macy's account. in person, the fabric looked like it will hold up pretty well and resist snags and pilling (the floor model was in the pistachio color and had been on the floor for over a year and had no snags and barely showed dirt). i wasn't in the market for my "forever" sofa, just something with a nice design and good enough quality to get me through the next few years before i upgrade. i opened the cushions and looked at the foam - it's decent, not the best, can easily be replaced with better grade foam/batting if need be. this sofa seemed to be better quality than the crate and barrel sofas i visited, and at $599, i couldn't pass it up. lastly, in response to the above post, yes the legs are removable.
"I don't know why one would ever bother with the risk of a bad knockoff."
Because not everyone has $1800-$2000 to spend on a couch, unfortunately. Lucky you that you'll never have to experience what in your opinion is "a bad knockoff", Bruised, the rest of us will enjoy our reasonably priced (or cheap, if you will) Corona couches... and chairs because we'll actually be able to afford those, too!
haley, I agree with you 100%. Let's not be snooty, citizens.
I am however, after many years looking at the Bantam because of it's assumed better quality?? We are at a point were we would spend more to get something that will last but I am not happy with what I am hearing on either sofa. Are there any others out there that are single cushion with very similar lines and excellent quality under 2000? I need two! Ouch. However we are furnishing for the first time (after many years of "college style" living) and like to have it for the long haul. I want quality and want to be able to clean it & have it keep it's shape. Am I asking for two much. I have a friend who just inherited a couch of similar design with a caned back rest and the cushion still looks great. Why can't we get this quality now? It's velvet ice gray. Beautiful and well used.
Thanks for any suggestions or input.
I'd like to resurrect this discussion since it seems like so many people have the Corona sofa now. I have the pear color and love it, but am having a hard time deciding on a color for the walls that will work with this green. I don't want to paint anything too dark or too intense. And anyone come up with a color combo that is really working for them? I'm thinking maybe something quite neutral, then perhaps an accent wall in a very soft green, but I'm not sure if that will be a lot of green. Any opinions would be really appreciated!
faycat, hi. I can't help you with the color choices (though I like the options in the macy's photos of dark brown walls or a cream wallpaper).
But I'm wondering if you've had a problem with water marks on your sofa. Some of the reviews on the Macy's site say you can't do any cleaning of the cushions or drip any water on the fabric because it leaves a mark. I want to buy the corona but this sounds scary...
Its interesting because the photos of the corona sofa don't really do it justice. Its such a long sofa that you don't notice the three cushions quite as much in person. Plus when i went to see the R and B sofa in person, I hated it because the cushion was all worn down. For a floor model of a sofa at that price, the cushions should not need to be upgraded
I see lots of love for the Corona, but what about Macy's Lenny sofa for the same price? http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=438632&CategoryID=42862#reviews
It's really similar to C&B's Petrie, with tufted seat and back cushions and only 2 seat cushions. Has anyone test driven the Lenny yet? I see only one review on Macy's website.
This is a great looking couch, however I really cannot recommend it. I've had one for about a year and a half now, and the quality is not good. It is sturdy and the fabric holds up well, however the internal springs wore out quickly (a few months). The couch now sags in the middle and is not very comfortable. Also the couch is too narrow to allow my gf and I to comfortably both watch TV on it. Surprisingly her Ikea couch is much more comfortable and has held up much better (I've always been skeptical of their couches quality). Buyer beware unless you are a single woman who weighs less then 110 pounds!
ScottMiami, I have to ask...how tall are you and your girlfriend? We sat on the Corona at Macy's and found it to be exceptionally spacious for both of us, though I'm short and hubby is quite tall. As for narrowness, I surmise that you must be very tall people for it to not seat you comfortably. Was this not apparent when you sat on it in the store?
Does anyone out there know who manufacturers the Corona Sofa from macys???? I looked at it and didn't think it would last to long. then i found something very similiar at a place called boston interiors. the one at Boston Interiors costs about the same as the one in macys and is made by mark home. I would go to the BI store, but that would mean a 6 hour drive...
heres the link, i couldn't copy the picture of the BI sofa, looks just like the corona..
I, too, have been considering the Corona sofa but have been a little taken aback by some of the negative reviews here and on the Macy's site. I'm also not looking for my 'forever' sofa, but I'd rather not spend several hundred dollars on something that isn't going to hold up.
I recently found Customsofadesign.com, a company in the business of making knock-offs, as far as I can tell. Their prices seem pretty reasonable and they make a few sofas with comparable lines to the Corona, i.e., see the 'Brussels' http://customsofadesign.com/styles.php?s=brussels , the 'Cynthia' (two-cushion version for the minimalists out there) http://customsofadesign.com/styles.php?s=cynthia , and the 'Paramount' http://www.customsofadesign.com/styles.php?s=parama ... okay, I could go on and on. These are all considerably <$1000, depending on the fabric you select. Yes, they offer multiple fabric choices at different prices.
I've been wondering if their quality is any different from the Macy's sofa and if it would be worth paying the shipping (they quoted me $300 to ship to the mid-west from their store in L.A.), but I haven't found anyone with experience dealing with them yet.
Too many choices!
i'm on the verge of buying the corona but all the negative views have me on the fence...has anyone purchased it recently...please advise!
I own a Corona sofa and chair (used to be called the Clare) I bought mine in 2005 and because we are a military family it has been moved across the country and across the world (and yes the legs do come off) I love this sofa! It is a little firm when first purchased but once it is broken in it is very comfy. I have pets and children and it has held up exceptionally well and in a mid century style the price it just can't be beat. I would highly recommend.

Official URL: http://www.springerlink.com/content/02kt1547661255...
Sand particles textured with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) can efficiently control the mobility and bioavailability of contaminants found in aquatic sediments. Adsorption measurements for a wide variety of aquatic contaminants (chlorinated hydrocarbons) on MWCNT-textured sand showed orders of magnitude increase in their sorption coefficients compared to traditional materials (sand) when used for physically separating contaminated sediments from overlying water. Molecular dynamics simulations performed on model experimental systems emphasize that the hydrophobic interactions of the MWCNT surfaces play a crucial role in driving the water molecules away, promoting such enhanced contaminant uptake. The MWCNT-textured sand significantly reduced the migration of contaminants from sediments to overlying water and possesses suitable parameters needed for contaminant sequestration and sediment remediation technologies. The single step and scalable procedure described here for synthesizing robust MWCNT-textured sand surfaces will provide important improvements in the field of remediation/aquatic environment restoration technologies.

The Socialization of Facebook, Twitter, Blogs and Other Social Media at Work
A couple of eye-brow raising stats came out recently. The Society for New Communications Research released a study regarding journalists and their use of social media. It's no shock that the study revealed the "use of social media tools by journalists is surging, growing in double-digit percentages in some cases." But, as ZDNet points out… there's interesting insight to how many of the 341 journalists surveyed are not taking advantage of social media sites.
- Over 50% of journalists do not watch videos online
- Approximately one-third of the journalists surveyed do not read blogs
- 75% don't listen to podcasts
- More than half of the journalists do not use Twitter or other microblogging sites and tools
- Nearly one-third of these journalists don't use social networking sites
But hey, 91% of journalists surveyed agree that new media is enhancing journalism. I wouldn't be able to get away with not using social media and blogs at work. Then again, I wonder what percentage of these journalists are online journalists… hmm…
Liberty Mutual's Responsibility Project stirred a few stats up for a Reuter's article. According to the survey, 56% of Americans believe it's "irresponsible" to be Facebook friends with your boss. More so, 62% of those surveyed said it's wrong befriend an employee. Other intriguing highlights:
- 52% believe it's appropriate for companies to review the social media profiles of job candidates
- 73% don't think it's appropriate to update your Facebook status while at work; 72% say you shouldn't tweet at work
- More than 40% of parents believe you shouldn't post photos of children online
- Although just under 70% of parents are friends with their kids on Facebook or MySpace, 31% of them monitor their children's Facebook accounts
- 72% of parents limit the time their kids spend on social media networks
- More than 80% of parents say teachers shouldn't interact with students online
Do SND readers agree with the lot above? These findings come as sort of a surprise to me, I'll admit. Not too long ago, I befriended my 8th grade teacher after my friend told me she was online. And I'm definitely friends with past employers… Okay, so maybe it's different since 8th grade was a long time ago. And perhaps it depends on the relationship you've developed with an employer. For me, Facebook is a networking and contact tool where I'm usually eager to befriend employers and co-workers. Does that mean the cheese stands alone? Uh, I mean, do I stand alone on this?

As we approach winter and energy prices get hiked by those robbers in British Gas I feel deep joy when I can heat the fire with free logs from my garden. However, splitting logs is not that easy. It is hard work and quite dangerous unless you are an experienced lumberjack.
So I have got myself a log splitter
What a great bit of kit this is. It applies 6 tons of force to push a log against a splitting wedge and within seconds , hey presto, your log is in bits. I now have a log store full of free fuel. Well it's not that free as I have had to buy the kit but it is deeply pleasing to not have to pay to warm the room…and a log fire is so nice to sit in front of.

Are you fussing over what makeup to wear for your hot Valentine's date on Sunday? Take your cue from Chanel. They threw a special dinner to launch their new lipstick Rouge Coco de Chanel at The Mark Hotel in New York last Tuesday. See what shades of lipstick the stars are showcasing.
Kate Bosworth attended the event to support her friend Vanessa Paradis. I'm loving everything about Kate's look—her printed frock, sleek hair bun, and nude lips.
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Vanessa Paradis at 3:20 AM EDT on Jan, 15 2010
Johnny Depp's other half is working on another project with Chanel. French singer and actress Vanessa Paradis is the face behind Chanel's new Rouge Coco lipstick campaign.
According to InStyle, the Rouge Coco collection of 30 lipsticks will be available in March. "Vanessa has been very linked to the house over the years, and she represents a young, sophisticated woman who we also believe will be the consumer for Rouge Coco," said Andrea D'Avack, president of Chanel Fragrance & Beauté.
As we excitedly wait for the TV and print ads to come out, check out the behind-the-scenes photos here. Who would believe she's already 37 years old?

HS2 could deliver annual £15billion boost to the economy, according to KPMG analysis on the economic impact of the project.

Greygory's Test Shoot
Greygory is a good friend of The Test Shot. For one, he sometimes cuts our hair at Open Barbers. He allowed us to make a film of his hair cutting project to share with other trans* and queer folk. During his shoot we became friends in turn with his pet rats, Harold and Maude (careful if you're scared of them and want to look at the pictures below). They are delightful. This was the first shoot that we really explored the streets of London. We found an abandoned house, among other architectural gems. A (faux) leather jacket really sets off a building, don't you think?
When not cutting hair, among other things, Greygory works in arts eduction.
Q. What is the significance of your top choices?
I have chosen a few things that I am quite attached to. Firstly my G jumper which was knitted for me by my trans brother's mum. He has a matching F jumper. My Beano t-shirt which I had for years and used to read as a nipper. Also my Motorcycle Emptiness t-shirt which has been with me through many years of change! The marching band jacket, fake leather jacket and top hat are all things I bought when I was a baby Greygory and as such they all remind me of some memorable and exciting moments in my trans journey.
Q. How do you define your own transmasculinity?
I identify as a female to male trans person who likes to be read as twinky queer. I love camp mannerisms. I don't really aspire to pass as a masculine male. I am very drawn to people who I may read as trans, but I don't know where they started, where they're going, or in which direction. At the moment, I love outfits that involve gold lamé hot pants, but I haven't ventured that far yet myself. What I have found interesting is that since accepting myself as trans, and taking measures to change my body in a masculine direction, I have become much happier to embrace my feminine side. Femininity is not something I need to reject anymore. When I identified as female, I couldn't get my head around my place in feminism, but it seems much clearer to me these days how I can aspire to be a feminist without feeling like a hypocrite. I'm not sure that any of this will come across in the photos, but it's how I define myself in my head.
Q. What do you want to communicate through your choices?
I just think I want to communicate comfort in my own body. To be honest I'm not very attentive to fashion, but Felix and Jess intervene if they sense that I'm losing touch. For the shoot, my choices include a lot of things with personal value. My body and style have been through their fair share of discomfort and self harm, and I have realised that these days I have settled into myself as someone I'm more often than not happy to be. I'm not trying to escape from myself anymore, I'm not quite sure when that happened, (maybe when I got past 30), but I attribute it largely to the generosity of my queer friends, community and my partner that I have come to accept myself as I am.
Q. How has your fashion / style evolved?
On the whole I'm pretty practical about style, but I go through switchy phases where I want to be dapper for a while, scruffy for a while, camp for a while, or just comfy. I actually think my wardrobe hasn't evolved that much, but I have evolved inside it. I am also a barber and hairdresser with Open Barbers, and this has made me more attentive to how much fun can be had with hair that doesn't just reinforce gender norms and stereotypes.
Q. How would you describe your relationship to clothes?
Transitioning is such a fascinating experience, where the same clothes can feel so different later in transition. My posture has changed since surgery, I carry myself more confidently, my physique has adapted to a new found confidence. I think this has determined change in my appearance / style more than any clothes have.
