We're considering a remodeling project, but aren't sure where to begin, or if design+build is right for us.
Our best customer is an educated consumer, and so Divine offers monthly seminars, at no charge and with absolutely no obligation.
We will teach you about the full range of services, products and choices to be considered before any remodeling work begins on your home. We will walk you through the process, explaining costs and timelines, so you can establish realistic expectations and budgeting.
All you have to do is sign up. Our seminars are group classes conducted by our lead designer and company principal, Mariette Barsoum. Click here for additional information.
A design+build firm is a full-service company that provides you with a turn-key process. We offer creative interior design services, and we provide the construction services for all building and installation work. We will design and then build your project – from beginning to end – saving you time, stress, and an average of 14 to 18% in cost. A key advantage of Design+Build is the ability for you to make tradeoffs before the project starts. As the customer, you are always in control of the budget.
Our lead carpenters are our full-time employees, not subcontractors. They are never over-extended, and have only one project to manage at a time – yours.
Homeowners who want accountability and continuity benefit greatly from this combination of services. You will never wonder who is responsible for any aspect of your project. You will never be required to find a part or service for yourself.
We are experts in whole-home remodeling. From mudrooms to complete additions, our expert team of designers and builders are ready to tackle your next project. While we specialize in design+build projects for luxury kitchens and baths, our designers are skilled at bringing together living spaces that complement one another and that create continuity throughout your home.
Many customers wonder what kind of payback they should expect on a typical kitchen or bathroom project. Remodeling magazine compiles this information annually per region in their Cost vs. Value Report. Take a look at the Boston area here. In the 2014 report, homeowners recouped more than 87% of the cost for major kitchen remodeling and 74% for bathroom remodeling.
At Divine, we develop a Personal Cost Analysis System for our clients to help them understand all the possible options and combinations of choices that will make their dream renovation a reality.
To determine what your budget should be will depend on many factors. How big is your kitchen or bath? How much cabinetry will be required? What type of countertops, appliances, and cabinets are you looking for? Labor costs will also have an impact on the overall cost.
During our initial meeting in the showroom, our lead designer and company principal, Mariette Barsoum, will ask you all of these questions and help you determine whether your budget is realistic for the scope of work you intend to do.
This system is based on three elements:
We will help you analyze the cost of your remodeling project by projecting the desired designs and materials (in a variety of price points), against your actual budget to make the best possible combination of choices for your new space.
We are a full-service design+build firm specializing in kitchens, bathrooms, and whole-house renovations. If you can dream it, we can build it! Here's how:
Our design team, under the direct leadership of Mariette Barsoum, will work closely with you from the very first stages of consultation and initial sketches, to the fully finished installation. We control and coordinate the process from beginning to end to ensure accuracy, and to create a stress-free experience for you.
The Divine team has completed custom kitchens, bathrooms and whole-home remodeling projects throughout Massachusetts, from Cape Cod to the Berkshires, we well as in New York City and other New England locations.
We primarily serve Boston, Cambridge, Winchester, and the Metro West including: Wellesley, Weston, Dover, Sherborn, Lincoln, Newton, Chestnut Hill, Natick, Needham, Westwood, Wayland, Brookline, Lexington.
We look forward to your visit to our Wellesley showroom!
The first step is to carefully consider the reasons for remodeling your kitchen or bath, and what kind of financial investment you are able to make. By determining these important factors ahead of time, we will be better able to meet all of your goals.
Consider attending one of our free monthly seminars to learn about the process in detail. We will educate you about the many ways you can undertake an exciting new remodeling project that will make you feel like you are in a new home. Our monthly classes are offered to teach consumers what they need to know before they make key decisions. Our best customer is an educated consumer!
It is never too early to start. The overall process can take between 9-27 weeks or longer, depending on many factors. So, if you have a time frame that you need to work within, you should give yourself as much time as possible to get the project done.
Look through design and kitchen magazines and collect all the pictures that appeal to you. Keep them in a folder, so we can review them together. This will help us develop a clear idea of your personal design style.
Make an appointment to meet with Mariette in our showroom for a consultation. Once you do this you will be well on your way to a beautiful new kitchen.
The single most important decision you will make in the remodel process is the selection of a reputable design firm. The right design firm is critical to a smooth remodeling project that will result in a beautiful, functional design for years to come.
Ask yourself the following questions: "Can I work with this designer for the next few months?" "Will s/he return my calls promptly – even on a Sunday afternoon?" "Can I trust him/her with my kitchen?"
Do your homework:
Signs of a reputable company:
Customer service begins with accountability. Designer Mariette Barsoum will personally oversee and participate in all phases of development and construction. Whether you're dream is to renovate your kitchen, bathroom or another room in your home, Mariette will expertly assist you from the start to a beautifully-finished project.
Close attention to detail is a hallmark of our service. Mariette meets with clients to develop initial concepts, choose cabinet lines, doors and colors, and to arrive at a finished design objective.
We believe this level of attention to detail is what gives our clients the piece of mind they deserve, and the confidence to know that their gorgeous new cabinets, counters, hardware and appliances are going to fit like a glove.
Mariette was awarded the designation of Certified Kitchen Designer®, or CKD by the National Kitchen and Bath Association and dedicates all of her time designing kitchens, bathrooms and other home renovation spaces.
Our first job is to help you arrive at a budget that will accomplish your goals. At Divine, we have done award-winning work even on small baths and modest remodel projects.
Our Personal Cost Analysis will show you the "good, better, best" materials and pricing options within the scope of your project. This analytic planning allows you to select a combination of price points that will make your new kitchen, bath or living space a reality.
We carry a wide range of products and offer semi-custom and full-custom cabinet lines that fit most budgets. We also have design plans that accommodate more modest room sizes to help you complete renovations to your home no matter the size of the space.
Developing a comprehensive design plan with a professional designer will ensure that you are able to complete the full scope of work your vision requires.
There are two main factors that play a role in how long it will take to complete your kitchen:
Here is a general break down of approximate time frames:
The final length of time from design through completion may be between 9-27 weeks. Much of that time is devoted to the planning and design process, but is also largely impacted by the availability of custom pieces, like cabinets, or special order finishes.
We have a passion for innovative design that is matched by our commitment to excellence. We guarantee careful attention to detail and very personalized service.
Divine has received regional and national recognition, won many awards for its outstanding work, and appeared in numerous publications.
We offer the finest quality custom cabinetry and a broad array of unique products to produce truly personalized spaces.
Every member of our team is an experienced professional in their field and our lead carpenters and designers are employed by Divine – they are not subcontractors. Every one of our team members abides by a strict code of ethics.
Professional achievement doesn't stop professional development at Divine. We encourage all our employees to continue their education through industry courses, seminars, designations and licensing requirements.
Owner and designer Mariette Barsoum has been in business for 15 years. Her educational focus was Interior Design and she has earned a Certified Kitchen Designer® designation through the National Kitchen and Bath Association.
All of our on-staff designers also hold degrees in Interior Design.
All of our contractors and installers are licensed, insured, and the best in their field with decades of professional experience. Our Lead Carpenters are certified by the state of Massachusetts as Licensed Construction Supervisors. Some are Certified SEN Design Group Project Managers.
The environmental impact of our design and constructions projects is very important to us. As a result we often build to LEED specifications, ensuring that we've designed responsibly (Green Design) and that our client's homes are energy efficient.
Because we are a design+build firm dedicated to making projects stress-free for our clients, we work very closely with our own contractors and installers, scheduling all the subcontractor work that needs to be done. By using our services, you have a contract with us, so we take full responsibility for the work from start to finish. If you would prefer to use your own contractor, we'd be happy to discuss it with you and see if it's your best option.
We carry a very extensive list of high quality products that we stand behind. This is a partial list of the products we carry.
Absolutely. A major renovation to your home is a significant investment deserving careful research and a thorough investigation of work quality and customer satisfaction.
Never agree to a remodeling contract without checking multiple references and seeing work samples. We are always happy to provide them.
Many of our former clients have expressed enthusiasm about recommending us. We also have written letters of recommendation that we are proud to show to perspective clients. See a sample of what our customers have to say about Divine.
Your initial consultation with us at our showroom is free. This is our opportunity to listen to your ideas about the perfect kitchen or bath for your home. We encourage you to bring rough measurements, pictures of the current space and clippings from magazines.
The first charge for our services is a measure fee, which is required when you schedule an appointment with Mariette to visit your home. She will measure the space and ask you about your preferences for both function and design. She will then prepare a Personal Cost Analysis proposal of multiple preliminary designs and pricing for your review. The one-time design fee begins at $750 depending on the location of the project and the complexity of the design. The rest of the schedule of fees will be outlined in your contract documents.
All prices include the material, labor (if applicable), shipping, delivery and applicable taxes. We always provide firm, fixed pricing. The contract amount will never change unless you expand the scope of the project (e.g. replace a window) or if unforeseen pre-existing damage (e.g. water damage from a leaky pipe) is uncovered during the renovation.
Many competitors give you an estimate, e.g. "it will be around $35,000." The problem with this approach is that it is just an estimate. It is not uncommon that, by the time you are done, you have actually spent two or even three times the original amount.
At Divine, we choose to work differently. We know our customers do not like surprises, and we don't either. We never provide estimates. We only provide proposals. A proposal is a detailed design with all the materials selected and a corresponding exact price, down to the penny. We also know that our customers like options so you are able to make a educated choices of what ultimately works best for you. Our Personal Cost Analysis provides multiple options, each with a detailed design, material selection and an exact price.

7,5 credits, Doctoral course (third-cycle), Spring and autumn 2015, ABE-KTHKursen "Theory of science and research methods in art, technology and design", är en obligatorisk kurs för studenter på Doktorandprogrammet Konst, Teknik och Design, KTH/Konstfack. Kursen är även öppen för andra sökande (se behörighetskrav nedan).
The course provides an overview of theory of science and scientific method, set within a cultural framework and addressed in relation to (forms of) knowledge. The focus lies on reflexive, critical and qualitative research methods in the humanities and the social sciences. Notions of paradigmatic shifts, divides between different scientific traditions, and inter- and transdisciplinary research are presented and framed in ways that are particularly useful for students pursuing practice-based research, artistic research and design research. Students are provided with a solid understanding of key concepts and topics – such as the relation between epistemology, ontology, and methodology, and the linkage between research question, method, aim and result – through lectures and literature seminars. In emphasizing social complexity and with a focus on poorly-defined cases characterized by "messiness", the course aims at providing students with advanced insights into recent thinking on reflexive and critical methodologies, qualitative and innovative methods, and performative research practices. Historical examples and key philosophical sources are combined with current thinking in various academic fields characterised by criticality, experimentation and reflexivity. On completion of the course, the student will be able to reflect on his/her own position in relation to dominant schools of thought, and critically discuss the problems and opportunities, as well as the epistemological and ethical challenges, inherent to his/her own research practice.
On completion of the course, the student should be able to:
- Account for and be able to reflect on the basic principles of scientific theory inrelation to method- Account for and be able to reflect on concepts of knowledge in relation toresearch practice- Account for the main traditions in qualitative research methodology andcritically assess them in relation to outcomes, topics and aims- Account for notions of paradigmatic shifts, inter- and transdisciplinary research, and for perceived divides between different scientific traditions- Critically reflect over how social complexity affects the preconditions forresearch, in general and in view of a specific study- Critically reflect over his/her own research practice in view of its epistemological and ethical challenges
The course caters for the needs of doctoral students pursuing research with a view on social complexity and paradigmatic change. Students are expected to read and discuss literature at an advanced theoretical and philosophical level, to present and discuss their readings at literature seminars, to partake in group exercises and to conduct independent critical and reflective thinking in the writing of a final essay. To be eligible for the course, students must have completed a masters' degree or have an equivalent level of education in technology, art or design (such as architecture, planning, civil engineering, design, arts and crafts, or fine arts) or affiliated subjects within the humanities and social sciences. Priority is given to students in the doctoral programmes Art, Technology and Design (KTH – Konstfack) and Planning and Decision Analysis (ABE-KTH). The course requires a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 25 students to be held.
The course is graded P/F and examined in two parts:- Participation in seminars, including group and/or individual assignments (4 credits).- Hand-in of final paper of a satisfactory quality and participation in the final review/workshop (3,5 credits).
- Excerpts from Michael Williams, Problems of Knowledge: A Critical Introduction to Epistemology (Oxford University Press, 2001), Mats Alvesson and Kaj Sköldberg, Reflexive Methodology: New Vistas for Qualitative Research (SAGE Publications, 2013); Celia Lury and Nina Wakeford (eds.), Inventive Methods: The Happening of the Social (Routledge, 2014); John Law, After method: mess in social science research (Routledge, 2004), will be combined with a choice of articles, to be presented at the beginning of the course.
Module 1. 30-31st March 2015: Conceptualizing 'knowledge'Module 2. 25-26th May 2015: Researching complexityModule 3.14-15th September 2015: The ethics of knowledge productionModule 4. 12-13th October 2015: Research beyond the object/subject divideModule 5. 7th December 2015: Examination
Applications are made by sending an e-mail to the course responsible teacher Jonathan Metzger (Skyddad adress) – no later than the 1st of March 2015, including a signed copy of your individual study plan. Places to the course will be allocated on a "first come, first served basis" but PhD students within the Art, Technology and Design Programme are given priority.
Your participation in the course is only guaranteed after you have received a positive response on your application. The number of participants is limited.
1 March 2015: Deadline to apply

Ongoing budget battles reveal a deeper problemSeptember 27, 2013

Tribal Perspective
It often amuses me how tribal we are; we have an incredible capacity to become specialised and expert over time and yet a pathetic inability to walk a mile in someone else's shoes. Even in the relatively new and progressive world of computer software development there are deep-seated tribal divisions. As the picture above suggests there's a constant battle between the left and right brain crowds and yet it's impossible to build a successful modern product without both skill-sets, not to mention managers, testers, salesmen, accountants, lawyers and tech-support. Ultimately we're all parasites of one kind or another, feeding off the life-investments of others, in my humble estimation the happiest people seem to realise and accept this fact.

Danielle O'Toole threw her third shutout of the season, a four-hitter with seven strikeouts, helping sixth-ranked Arizona defeat Texas 3-0 in the first game of a three-game series at Hillenbrand Stadium.
O'Toole improved to 9-1 on the year and lowered her conference-leading ERA to 0.34 on the year. It was her seventh complete-game effort of the season.
The offense supported O'Toole with three runs on six hits, as Texas starter Tiarra Davis (2-4) allowed one Wildcat run through the first five innings before UA tacked on a pair of insurance runs in the sixth.
Mo Mercado remained hot at the plate, posting her sixth straight multi-hit game. The reigning national and conference player of the week is now 13-for-her-last 16 at the plate. Mercado had a pair of doubles and scored two of Arizona's three runs.
Tamara Statman went 1-for-1 with two RBI. Jessie Harper also drove in a run.
You can read more about this game at ArizonaWildcats.com.
The Cats and the Longhorns continue their three-game series on Saturday at 6 p.m. MST.

Question about Televison & Video
please email me how to reset the lamp timer on my zenith d52wlcd - i tried holding down Enter on TV and Mute on Remote, but did not work.
Posted by mjpalm on
Dear Ladywinn,
I do not understand the first part of your soultion "Reset lamp timer plug in set and it will go into stand-by-mode"
do I not turn the tv on?
do i need a special remote or will the stock one work? thanks!
Thanks LadyWinn but I am doing something wrong.
Please tell me what I am doing wrong.
the fan and the tv comes on for approximately 1 minute, then shuts off. then, the red lamp light flashes which supposedly indicates that the lamp is bad and that the timer must be reset.
was I following your procedure to reset correctly of a zenith d52wlcd?
the fan runs, but the tv shuts off because the lamp timer needs to be reset - tv shuts off, and lamp indicator light flashes.
was I correctly following your procedure to reset the lamp of a zenith d52wlcd?
Just to clarify my problem:
I turn the set on. It runs perfeclty for about a minute. It then shuts off. The Lamp Indicator Light flashes red - which is supposed to mean the bulb needs replacement and the timer needs reset. I replaced the bulb, but cant get the timer to reset.
thank you for all your help and please advise.
can anyone help? I have tried ladywinn's solution with no success
ok, i have also replaced the fan, as well as installed a new bulb. but i still cannot get the lamp timer reset window to appear.
please help
my remote has a ? and 9,8,7,6 buttons. It has an Enter button, but not an OK button. Is having one with an OK button the only solution?
ladywinn, i replaced the fan. i also bought the service remote . what do i do with the service remote?
ok, i got into the service menu by pressing in-start. then i press lamp timer and enter. it shows 0. how do i change it from 0???
in case anyone else reads this:
I dont have the code with me its at my shop will get it tomorrow and let you know.
Posted on Dec 01, 2008
Reset lamp timer plug in set and it will go into stand-by-mode Now press ? key on the remote , Now press 9,8,7,6 and the OK button rhe 3 leds in front will flash for a moment to verify the lamp timer was reset to zero.
Do not turn set on all sets when first pluged in go into a stand by mode waiting to be turned on. and my answer is a fixya solution because this is how you reset timer.!!!!
Your problem is not in the lamp or reset timer you have other trouble < ck ballaster.also if Fan does not run lamp /nor the power will come on .
Pull back off watch to see if fan stops running ,if it runs for awhile then stops it is bad.
Fan must keep running in order for set to turn on and for lamp to work and come on itself.
Replace the Fan ,just fixed one with same problem and it was the fan.
Is there anywhere you can borrow a hand unit with the OK button on it if not call L&G Electronics for assitance.
Have you fixed your tv Yet? IF NOT there is a fan located under the light engine if it is not running or working all you will get is RED light on TV.

Sarah Palin – Family Brawl Over Snowmobile Race
Published By: Tariq ZidanSeptember 12, 2014
Sarah Palin was accompanied by her family at a snowmobile party in the Anchorage, Alaska area. It was reported that the Palin family got into a fight at the party.
Initially the brawl involving the Sarah Palin family seemed questionable. News of the brawl was initially made public by local bloggers. The bloggers got their info from people who claimed to witness the Palin family fight. Check out Amanda Coyne's site for the initial story.
The fight was over the Iron Dog Race. If the name Iron Dog Race doesn't seem hillbilly enough, keep reading. The Iron Dog Race is a snowmobile race held in Anchorage, Alaska. Todd Palin won the race four times in the past.
The party where the alleged fight happened, occurred at the recent winner's house. So Todd an the current Iron Dog got into it. That's probably why Sarah Palin probably married him–for his snowmobile skills.
Anchorage police later confirmed the Anchorage fight involving the family Sarah Paling is matriarch to. The Palin family allegedly fought side by side.

When filing taxes, many Canadians leave money on the table, so to speak, by not taking full advantage of tax credits. It's difficult enough to understand what's already out there, never mind the options that get introduced each year. To ease the burden for you, we've highlighted the new tax credits you need to know about in 2014.
Have you ever made a donation to a charitable institution or organization? If not, this is the year to start giving. To encourage Canadians to be more charitable, the government has introduced the First-Time Donor's Super Credit. First-time charitable givers will receive an extra 25 per cent non-refundable federal tax credit. This means that you can get a 40 per cent credit for up to $200 in cash donations and a 54 per cent credit for the part of the cash donations that is over $200 – albeit not more than $1,000. However, first make sure your gift is going to a qualified organization. A full list of amazing opportunities to give back can be found here.
Canadians who adopt a child take on an enormous responsibility, both in terms of giving care and providing financial support. According to the Adoption Council of Canada, the cost of adoption can be as much as $30,000. To ease the burden, the Adoption Expense Tax Credit was introduced, allowing parents to claim adoption expenses up to $11,669 per child for 2013.
Do you have investments? Own a home? Maybe you've got an investment property? If so, then you're subject to capital gains. The good news is that you get to keep a little more of them this year. The proposed budget calls for an increase from $750,000 lifetime – the current capital gains exemption – to $800,000. Moving forward, the lifetime exemption will be indexed to inflation.
As you can see, there are many ways to earn tax credits and save money this year. TurboTax is fully up to date with all new tax credits. Don't leave a penny on the table.

If you are planning a flooring update at your home, knowing which type of flooring will best meet your needs is the most important step in the process. This choice has a lot to do with personality types – yours and the floor's. Here is a quick look at three common flooring types that have a unique personality and their own specific draw for your home:
- Carpet – If you think of carpet and all you want to do is snuggle, you'd be on track. Great for busy households where kids come and go for outfitting your living spaces with something that helps you achieve maximum comfort, carpet is your go-to flooring type. In just a few words, carpeting is cozy and comfortable on all occasions.
- Hardwoods – Another popular flooring type is hardwoods, and there is good reason why. Not only do many hardwood floors function as an-eco-friendly option, but they also provide lasting beauty throughout your home. Hardwood flooring personality descriptors might include "luxury taste" and "timeless ambition".
- Laminate – Laminate flooring is the perfect go-between when you want to achieve a specific effect in your home without paying the price. It's also a great option for those who may not have time to manage their flooring maintenance on a regular basis. Your laminate flooring might say that you have an eye for detail but no time for maintenance, and that's really okay.
At Floor Coverings International, we are here to help when you need assistance selecting the flooring type that accurately matches your personality and design tastes. If you have questions about these three flooring types or one of our other excellent products, contact us today to schedule a consultation. We'll help you get great results!

The whole idea of indoor sports is to give people a healthy and professionally managed environment to enjoy playing throughout the year. In indoor games, it hardly matters if a person is young or old or a serious high grade player. For beginners, it's the best way to start learning a game as stadiums are often packed with activities.
Today, there are a wide variety of games that can be played in indoor stadiums. Indoor sports include football, hockey, basketball, tennis and even cricket. Indoor games are becoming popular by the day not only for the kids but also for the teens and grown-ups.
For example, indoor soccer is a very common sport in the United States. As a matter of fact, a lot of amateur and professional leagues are dedicated to indoor soccer. Indoor Soccer is also played in other countries though most indoor play outside of North America involves the FIFA-sanctioned game of futsal. Of late, indoor soccer has turned out to be become extremely popular in Mexico.
As far as the rules are concerned, it varies between governing bodies. Most indoor soccer fields are rectangular with turf floors. In many colleges, indoor game is played on basketball courts. According to prescribed norms, the guard walls should be six feet tall. As far as indoor soccer games are concerned, six players per team play the match which includes the goalkeeper.
Indoor basketball is also hugely popular indoor sport in which two teams of five players try to score points by throwing a ball through a 10 foot high hoop under organized rules. Over the years, indoor basketball has come up with a set of new rules besides a number of techniques including shooting skills, passing and dribbling. Players positions are also part of the new set of rules.
There are thousands of indoor sports clubs throughout the world. Sports club is an association of multiple sports, which fields a lot of teams under the command of the same umbrella organization. Sports clubs may also refer to sports institutions that practically have a solitary sports team or even at times a single sports department.
However, in general, 'sports club' can mean a football club like Chelsea FC, Newcastle United or Celtic FC where the only teams fielded are football teams. There are however rare examples such as Fisher Athletic which plays football, boxing and athletics or the Catford Wanderers that plays cricket, tennis and badminton. Besides there are the NBA (basketball), NFL (American football) or MLS (soccer) North American sports leagues which can also be referred as sports clubs.
Fitness sport is the key to good health. Fitness sport is a misconception. Playing a sport of one's choice helps to keep the body in shape. However, if you are serious to improve your health, it is very important to do a variety of fitness exercises like running, jogging, walking, pushing weights to name a few. It is of paramount importance for sportsmen to put their bodies under a certain amount of stress to increase physical capabilities.

I am torn.
The dresser that I purchased on Monday is gorgeous just as it is. In fact, I'm even kind of drawn to the way the string 'hardware' makes it look so old and neglected, like a beautiful piece that I have rescued from the hands of someone who just didn't care enough to fix it. The patina around its drawer pulls, the scratches on the side, even the rough spots on the top where the finish has worn away seem to me to tell a story.
Unfortunately, I have no idea what that story is.
So, I'm torn. Do I replace the hardware, a embrace the mystery of its past life? Or, do I sand it down, pick my favourite colours, and create a new work of art, embellish its surfaces with my own story?
I could turn it into something truly beautiful, something unexpected. A pop of colour, a rainbow of shades, or high contrast… there are so many different options, so many fun ideas peppered across the Internet that I could borrow and reshape and fit into my own home. But is a cleverly finished dresser more 'me' than the dark, history-filled patina that already gives the piece its charming character?
How do I compromise such desires for the old and the beautifully, newly finished? For now, I'll embrace the old. But is that my permanent decision?
Probably not.
(Update: This dresser was remade by fellow Canadian Renee from Eat.Live.Shop. Check out the transformation on her blog!)

I have some very quirky list of things I just adore like the smoothness of a new jar of peanut butter, jelly or butter, or only increasing the TV volume by increments of 5. One of my favorite things in the world though is when you come back home from a weekend away and you walk into a neat, tidy and clean smelling home. When I was little my mom would always make us give the house a thorough cleaning before we left for any trip and this is probably why I love it so much now.
This past weekend before heading down to OKC for the weekend I meticulously cleaned the house with some help from Richard. It was all worth it when we came home and put our things down in our tidy little entryway. Keeping my home keeps me from feeling stressed out and anxious. I've been told I'm a little OCD and sometimes I think it may be true. I CANNOT sleep easy if there are dishes in the sink… I've woken up on multiple occasions in the middle of the night to clean the kitchen that at bedtime I decided could wait until tomorrow. It's impossible for me to sleep in a messy room, I feel like I'm being suffocated.
I'm also a list person. If it isn't on a list there's a chance it can fall between the cracks and be easily forgotten. So I've been working on writing a list of all the things I MUST do each day running, writing weekly meal menu's, grocery shopping and cleaning. I've assigned myself one cleaning assignment each day. This helps me stay on top of the mess and avoid cleaning the whole house in one day… usually Sunday late into the night. In fact my cleaning to-do list is broken down by room or area and if I follow the schedule the whole house should be clean by Friday, giving me the weekend off.
I made the list using a To-Do List Template. It will be printed and laminated this week which will allow me to check things off my list… and is there anything more satisfying than checking things off a list? I also wrote a few notes to the side in case I need Richard to help me out with the cleaning one week. Now he really can't make the excuse that he doesn't know what all needs to be done when cleaning a specific room. It will all be here on my list. I'll probably put together a Spring Cleaning List later. Are you a list lover? What sort of lists and charts do you use to help you keep your home in check?

The King's baron, Oridial, was a brave and honorable knight. He and his wife had two children; a son named Guigemar and a daughter named Noguent. Guigemar was very handsome, and he was greatly loved by his parents. When Guigemar was old enough, Oridial sent him to serve another king. Guigemar "was wise, brave and loved by everyone" (43). The time came that Guigemar wanted to leave the King and go in search of renown. The king gave him whatever armor that he wanted. There was no other knight who could match his skill. Even though Guigemar was a very handsome man, he had no interest in the opposite sex.
When Guigemar had achieved a lot of success as a knight, he returned home to his family. He had only been home for about a month when he decided that he wanted to go on a hunt. He summoned men to accompany him, and they went out hunting first thing the next morning.
The other knights went off after a stag, but Guigemar stayed back. In a bush, Guigemar saw a white hind and her fawn. The hind had the antlers of a stag. Guigemar drew his bow and fired an arrow into the hind's forehead. The hind fell to the ground, but the arrow bounced off of the hind and hit Guigemar in the thigh. The arrow went so deep that it went into the horse's flesh. The hind began to speak to Guigemar saying: "Alas! I am mortally wounded. Vassal, you who have wounded, let this be your fate. May you never find a cure, nor may any herb, root, doctor or potion ever heal the would you have in your thigh until you are cured by a woman who will suffer for your love more pain and anguish than any other woman has ever known, and you will suffer likewise for her, so much so that all those who are in love, who have known love or are yet to experience it, will marvel at it" (44).
Guigemar sent his squire to bring his friends back to where he was. When the squire had gone, Guigemar tied his shirt around his wound and mounted his horse. He rode away quickly, because he did not want his friends to see him like that. He was riding along when he saw a ship about ready to set sail from a normally deserted harbor. The ship was "caulked inside and out in such a way that it was impossible to detect any joints. There was no peg or deck-rail which was not made of ebony. No gold on earth was worth more and the sail was made entirely of silk" (45). The ship being in that port upset him, because he had never seen any ships there before. He rode down to the ship and went aboard. He didn't find anyone onboard. He went to leave the ship, but found the ship had already left port.
The ship reached land by nightfall. The ruler of this place was very old, and he had a very beautiful, noble, wise, and young wife. He was very jealous of her and did not want any other man to see her; so he had her guarded at all times. There was only one point of entry into her enclosure, which was always guarded. On the other side of the enclosure was the sea; so no one could enter there. On the walls of her chamber there were paintings of Venus. One in particular depicted Venus "casting into a blazing fire the book in which Ovid teaches the art of controlling love and as excommunicating all those who read this book or adopted its teachings" (46).
One day when the lady was out looking for some recreation with her maiden when she saw the ship sailing into port. They could not see anyone steering the ship. The lady wanted to flee, but the maiden, who was bolder than her friend, reassured the lady and they went down to where the ship was. The only person they found on board was the sleeping knight. At first the women thought he was dead, because he was so pail, but the lady put her hand on his chest and found it warm, and she could feel him breathing. The knight awoke suddenly. The lady asked him how it was that he came there and he told her the whole story. He asked the lady for her help, and she agreed.
The women took him back to the lady's chamber and laid him on the bed. The maiden tended to his wounds, and when her dinner came she set aside enough for him to eat. Guigemar finally knew what it was like to love someone, which troubled him. He no longer felt any pain, but he still sighed in anguish. The lady was stunned by unexplained feelings of love. The lady could not sleep that night; she lay there awake, thinking about Guigemar. The maiden could see that the lady was in love with Guigemar.
The next morning, the lady went into the chapel, and the maiden went to see Guigemar. He asked the maiden where the lady had gone. The maiden told him not to conceal his love from the lady for too long, for she loves you also. After the lady had heard mass she went to see the knight. Guigemar was afraid to tell her how he felt, because he didn't want her to get mad and send him away. He finally came to the conclusion that he either had to tell her how he felt or suffer in misery. He asked her for her love, and after much debate she granted his request. Then they laid together kissing and embracing.
Guigemar remained with her for about a year and a half undiscovered. One day, the lady announced that she felt that they would soon be discovered. She made him promise that if he managed to escape with his life that he would not be with any other woman. He promised, and she told him to give her his shirt and she tied a knot on the tailpiece. She told him that he would be free to love any woman who could untie the knot without the help of scissors or a knife. The lady would also make a similar pledge; she would fasten a belt around her that would close tightly around her loins. He told her that she could love any man that could take it off without tearing or cutting it.
They were discovered by a chamberlain that had been sent by the lady's husband. The lady's husband had her door broken down and Guigemar readied himself for a fight. Her husband asked Guigemar how he had gotten in there, and Guigemar told him. Her husband did not believe him; so he said that if they went to down to the harbor and the ship was there that he would let Guigemar board the ship and sail away. They went down to the harbor and the ship was there, and true to his word he let Guigemar leave. The ship took him back to his own country.
He was always sad and his countrymen wanted him to take a wife, but he refused to marry anyone who could not untie his shirt tail. This spread throughout the country and many women tried to untie it, but were unsuccessful.
After Guigemar left, the lady's husband had her locked away in a tower. She spent over two years in that dark tower, miserable. One day she went to her door and she found it unlocked. She seized the chance and escaped from the tower. She went down to the harbor and saw that the ship was there. She boarded the ship and the ship set sail, coming to port in Brittany, near a castle. The lord of that castle was named Meriaduc. The lord had seen the ship come into port from his window. He went down to the ship and retrieved the lady; he fell instantly in love with her.
He knew from the moment that he saw her that she was noble; and had her dressed properly. No matter what he did she was always sad. He told her repeatedly that he was in love with her, but she did not seem to care. She showed him her belt and told him that she could only love the man who could take it off of her. After she told him this, he told her about a knight who refused to marry any woman who could not untie his shirt tail. He then told her that he thought she was the one who had tied his knot. The lady fainted after hearing this. The lord grabbed her and tried to untie her belt; he was unsuccessful. He had all the knights in the land come and try to untie it, all were unsuccessful.
After a while Meriaduc arranged for a tournament to take place. He was certain that Guigemar would come to the tournament, which he did. Guigemar was invited to stay at the lord's castle. When Guigemar had arrived, Meriaduc summoned the lady. The lady came in and when she heard Guigemar's name, she became light-headed. Guigemar looked at her, but he did not believe that it was really her; his reasoning was that all women look alike. These two sat down together. Meriaduc was very unhappy at the sight of them together. He joking called out to the lady that she should try and untie Guigemar's shirt. Guigemar had his chamberlain fetch the shirt, and it was laid in front of the lady. She looked at it, uncertain of whether she should try and untie it. Meriaduc saw her hesitation and bid her to try and untie it. She untied it with ease. Guigemar still didn't believe that it was his lady; so he bid her to let him see the belt. He found the belt, and asked her how she managed to get to Brittany. She told him the whole story. Guigemar requested that Meriaduc let him take the lady with him, and in return Guigemar would become his vassal for about two years with about a hundred of his knights. Meriaduc refused, saying he found her so he was going to keep her.
Guigemar left the castle and went to join Meriaduc's enemy. The next day Guigemar, along with his followers, stormed Meriaduc's castle. It took them a long time to capture the castle, but in the end Guigemar killed Meriaduc. Guigemar took the lady and went away from castle.

The "Red Army" stays strong: Farrés victorious in Hellas Rally
- Gerard Farrés repeats last year's victory in Hellas Rally after a hard fight with Svitko where fair play was once again the main theme between these great riders.
- Dani Oliveras retires in the penultimate stage due to a crash after riding in the Top 5 for the whole race. Iván Cervantes finishes in an excellent 4th position on the 450 Rally, in an event riddled with navigation traps.
- Rosa Romero crosses the line in an impressive 10th final position, placing her as the first woman.
Greece, land of the Olympic Games and legendary sporting achievements, was the stage for the unique Hellas Rally Raid. Altitude, rain, fog, twisting tracks and impossible crossings in the dream landscapes which have not let anyone down: these were the ingredients of a race where, through a very technical and navigation based itinerary, the HIMOINSA Team has shined once again.
Farrés set off in the prologue with the nº1 plate after his victory last year and the expected fight with Svitko, who finished second in 2016, started immediately with the Slovak taking the stage win. This first day already served as a warning to all participants: navigation errors would prove very costly. With an itinerary filled with crossroads, roadbook interpretation would be the key to the race. Cervantes and Oliveras, aboard their 450 Rally, proposed a different strategy due to being conditioned by their bike's lesser agility in this terrain. As for Rosa Romero, she started the rally faultlessly and eager to tackle the following stages.
The second stage served as a starting point for the whole team, landing a spectacular performance which would extend through to the end of the event, placing three of their riders in the Top 5 with Farrés at the top of the standings. The race linked Farrés in a ruthless battle with Svitko day after day, and Oliveras and Cervantes pressuring them from behing without contemplations.
With varied lengths throughout the days, the stages ranged between 70 and 300 km, which forced to develop a very studied strategy to attack in the best sectors. The rain was a fundamental factor in the race, making the difference in stages 3 and 4, making for some slippery terrain, joined as well by the fog, which made for a true challenge for Farrés to be the first rider.
Doubtlessly, the most singled out stage was the penultimate day, with an unfortunate crash for Dani Oliveras after hitting a rock, which forced him to abandon with a small crack in his collarbone and several cuts in his hand. Bad luck for the Catalan rider after an outstanding race. During the same stage, Farrés stopped to help Svitko with his destroyed roadbook which made him unable to follow the course. After attempting to repair it, they rode together with Farrés guiding the Slovak rider to the finish line, allowing him to remain in the race. Another showing of sportsmanship which characterises this couple of riders: last year the roles were inverted as it was Svitko stopping to give the Catalan rider some gasoline. A complicated day for Rosa Romero too, with problems in her rear gas tank, and an anecdote for Iván Cervantes to tell as he went down without further consequences while trying to avoid a calf standing on the track…
After seven demanding stages, the competition ended with Farrés in first position, Cervantes in a meritory fourth place with the 450 Rally, further solidifying his transition into Rallys, and Rosa Romero in an ambitious 10th pasition overall, making her the winner in the women's category and 3rd in the 450cc category. A new success for the "Red Army" which continues to be unstoppable in its preparation for Dakar 2018.
Gerard Farrés (@gerardfarres): "I am ecstatic with my victory. The second day we attacked and came out in first place, although we were very lucky to get away from the rain, the riders in the back had to suffer so much! Opening the track in these conditions was very good for us, and the best part is that we performed wonderfully, with barely any mistakes despite it being really complicated. It took me a little to adapt to the feedback of the enduro bike, as we were coming from training and Merzouga Rally on the Rally bike, and it wasn't until the 4th stage that I really felt comfortable with the bike, and it showed in the final result. The batle with Svitko was brutal, he brought out my best riding! We get along really well and I didn't doubt to stop and help him out, last year it was him stopping to help me and that is above all competition. I had lots of fun on the track and I am really happy to bring this new success to the team."
Iván Cervantes (@IvanCervantes25): "I arrived at Hellas Rally literally 2 hours before the start of the prologue. I had just finished in Merzouga when I jumped straight to Lalin to race the Spanish Enduro Championship and from there, with tight schedules and plane after plane towards Greece to get back on the bike and set off with barely enough time to get dressed… I am very satisfied with this result, a third place in stage 3 despite being on the Rally bike, and a great 4th overall in this race with such stressful navigation, it was really tough and incredibly easy to make to make small mistakes which proved very costly in the end. I felt very strong and I am very, very happy. I truly loved Hellas, with lots of hours on the bike and difficult specials, and it was useful to go even faster while keeping ckeck of the navigation. It was unfortunate for Dani to crash, we rode the whole race hand in hand and worked together very well, I am sure he will recover soon."
Dani Oliveras (@danioliveras_21): "I really liked the race, the passages were spectacular. I had a really great time on the bike, and that showed in the results, always among the best and surrounded by Gerard and Iván in the Top 5, so that was fantastic for the team. Racking up these kilometres on the Rally bike was good for us, although its weight slowed us down in the slower sections. The worst part was my crash on stage 6. I hit a rock while checking on the roadbook and went flying with the bad luck of cracking my collarbone and hurting my hands. I tried to continue, but after some kilometres, I decided to stop taking any risks. It is frustrating but I want to keep the positive side and the great race we have rode as a team, in a few days I will be recovered and back on the gas."
Rosa Romero (@RosaRomeroFont): "Hellas was my first race of the season after Dakar. The first stages I kept very calm to try to get back into the rhythm and not put too much stress into my shoulder, which has been on and off since January. The terrain was very good, with a lot of grip in some specials, which has allowed us to race with confidence, although an issue with the rear gas tank had me very cautious to be able to finish the specials and not abandoning. I had a great time and I got better as the days went by, so this 10th place feels great and encourages me to give my best for the rest of the season."

Find out the 4 advantages of why it is important to maintain and keep your roof clean.
From new composition to maintenance and repairs, rest assured we've got you covered.
Fill out our quick online form to request a consultation from one of our roofing experts.
Getting to know the different elements of
your home's roof will help you identify when there is a problem. If you struggle to identify
your roofing shingles, flashing, and other roofing materials, you might
be in need of some basic roofing education. A team of roofers serving
Redmond will be thrilled to tell you more about the various components
of your roof. After learning about how your roof is constructed, you will
be able to maintain it properly. Let's take a look at some important
roofing terms that every homeowner should know.
The shingles form the outer layer of your roof, and they are probably the
most easily identifiable component of your roof. Shingles can be made
out of a variety of different materials, including asphalt, cedar, and
tile. When you are shopping for new shingles for your roof, it is important
to pick out a product that is both durable and attractive. Your shingles
will have a dramatic impact on the final appearance of your roof.
Flashing is another important structural component for the roof of your
home. Typically, flashing is composed of durable metal materials, such
as copper or aluminum. After the roof shingles have been installed, flashing
strips are used to seal any corners or seams. Once the flashing has been
nailed into place, your roof will be water tight. If you start to notice
strips of metal peeling up from the surface of your roof, you may be in
need of a flashing replacement.

Have you tried this?
I know I am probably late to this product but I picked up this little number the other day. I was running out of my regular face wash and had heard good things about the above. I've only used it for two days now so can't really give a review as yet. Haven't tried it as a "mask" only as a "wash" and so far so good.
Just wondered if any of your peeps are using this (or have used it)?
Hope you have all had a great week and Woooo Hoooo it's the weekend!

Bonnie Sheehan, 55, and Pamela King-McCracken, 59, both of Long Beach, were arrested Tuesday in Tennessee for transporting 140 dogs and one cat inside a U-Haul and a mini-van in reportedly unacceptable conditions. Authorities said two of the dogs were found dead.
"They were all crammed in crates, some were running loose, some have some bite wounds, some were bleeding, some were coughing," said Fayette County Animal Rescue's Gina Thweatt.
Sheehan and McCracken told Tennessee police they were transporting the dogs from California to Virginia to find them good homes. However, Thweatt said a reputable group would not have done that to animals in need of rescue.
According to Long Beach Animal Care Services director John Keissler, the women ran the non-profit Hearts for Hounds rescue operation in conjunction with the Long Beach Kennel Room and Groom, located on the 1300 block of Obispo Avenue. Animal care services removed more than a dozen animals from the kennel Thursday and is in the process of contacting the owners to pick up their pets.
Keissler also said animal care services is investigating whether anyone in the department had any knowledge of Sheehan and King-McCracken's move to the East Coast.
"It's disappointing. I think that maybe the people had the right idea, but just about it the wrong fashion," said dog owner Michael Watson.

Remember The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Roy Orbison? Ring any bells? We would listen to them on the radio, our parent's hi-fi's, or if we were lucky, portable record players that we could snap the lid down on and carry to our rooms or our friend's houses.
Those were great musical times. Would you like to own a little piece of that music history?

if im not mistaken,the problem is in the video card..please help me...
Posted by joelmysterio on
well..that is actually a video section of the motherboard...might require a full m/b replacement..got a warranty?
To test if in fact it is your video card... try plugging an external monitor into your laptop... If You Get a clear screen No Lines or colors etc.... then it's not your video card..
Lines are common with A faulty circuit board on the display panel, So You Might Need To Replace LCD Display if the exernal test shows your video card is good...

plans to help you manage your computer's power:
Balanced. Offers full
performance when you need it and saves power during periods of inactivity. This
is the best power plan for most people.
Power saver. Saves power by
reducing system performance and screen brightness. This plan can help laptop
users get the most from a single battery charge.

- Hotel
Auberge du centreChitenay
The Auberge du Centre, a three star hotel with 27 bedrooms, is located in the centre of Chitenay, a small, quiet village, typical of many in this Garden of France. The hotel, though not particularly large, occupies a prominent position on the high street and is swathed in Virginia creeper. Across the road is the white tufa stone church with its little avenue of pollarded trees shading the place de l'eglise. A small shop offers basic groceries, and the wherewithal for a picnic.
There is a pleasant comfortable bar to the front of the hotel and the restaurant runs through to the rear. There is private parking at the back of the hotel with storage and racks for Belle France bikes. The garden, home to red squirrels, has a couple of swings and enough hidey-holes amongst the colourful shrubs to keep children entertained in safety.
From all points on this crossroads, cycle routes are signposted to Cheverny (6 miles), Chaumont (11 miles) and Chambord (15 miles) which are three of the larger chateaux within relatively easy range, and other lesser known gems are even closer.

Local Loire wines are much in evidence on the wine list with some good value carafes on offer, especially those from Cheverny.

5 out of 5 rating based on 1 review
- Service (5/5): Excellent. Kept us informed along the way. Could not be faulted.
25th August 2016Product (4/5): Hotels and food very good. Rep on the ground fine. Change infirst hotel led us to a long first day bike ride which, I suspect, put us off the cycling to a degree. And we then limited our excursions onwards. Overall a pretty good break.
