Definitely like the mosaic. Cobalt blue is a classically beautiful color.
Ballroom dance? Anyway, that's me, Richard Tung, posting in Language Log. I'm too lazy to find out how to send you an email.
It was intriguing to read that you thought the crown jewel of the bathroom would be the toilet. I lover the fact that you are keeping your clawfoot tub as they give an elegant touch to any bathroom. But I think that would be the most exciting part of your design!
Very good post. I am really impressed with the tile plan outlined
I'm not a big fan of silicone bakeware. I find it flimsy and hard to quickly fill with denser cake mixes like a choc browny mix I made a few weeks ago. With the more runny cake mixes it is easier.
I am however a fan of chocolate silicone moulds. I used silicone mould rubber to create my own chocolate moulds and these work really well.

I think your design sounds great!
A note on toilets: trying to retrofit an older toilet to reduce it's water usage is not a good idea. A lot of engineering goes into toilets to get them to flush effectively with lower volumes of water.
Also when you rough in your wall sconces you want to know exactly what sconce you're putting in and if you're going to mount them bulb/shade up or down.
The center of the bulb should be approximately eye level, or a good average for multiple users, to give you the best lighting for using the mirror.
Thanks for sharing your project!
PS-your bot blocker wanted me to enter "three hundred and fifty four" which would be 300.54 but it was looking for 354 (three hundred fifty-four)
Is that part of the human test? :-)
A great layout, if I do say so myself. As far as cobalt blue, I had an entire shower tiled in cobalt and even though it is more of a spare bathroom and a bit cramped, it's my favorite place to shower. I feel like I am in Greece!
Thanks for sharing your views on
wall sconces. It is much appreciated to get your point of wall sconces.
While the sentiment was regrettably expressed, "spelt" is in fact a proper spelling of "spelled" sometimes used in the UK and some other English-speaking countries other than the USA. He did miss the apostrophe in "it's," however, so he doesn't win any special prize.
well, we did skriker for our exam. 2nd year drama as our production and thought it was really beautiful. saw the other skrikers on you tube and ours was the best. SOUTH AFRICA(UNIVERSITY OF KWAZULU NATAL, PMB CAMPUS) 2nd year drama students we did a great job... and our director Diana Wilson we took Skriker to another level.
Thank you Erich for requesting that all these posts concerning the death of our precious son be removed. These were posted by people that had no idea of how wonderful and loving a son our Michael was. Both Michael's mother and myself look forward to joing our son in heavenly places with our Savior. The Lord, Christ Jesus.
There we will all find peace, finally!
I do not appreciate the picture of my son that is posted, please be respectful and remove it.

That sounds really cool, I can't wait for pictures.
I have to ask about "idyllic Palestine of the past." When was that supposed to be? I read the bible and it seems more concerned about war than actual sheep herding. The land of milk and honey come off as not so idyllic to me, only better than being a slave in Egypt.
All these posts concerning the death of Mike Blaheta need to be removed. When some of these people are searched, all this crap comes up.
There is some great info here. Maybe the cupcake one is hard to use, my cupcakes just break in half when I try and pop them out.
This would be grand for making muffin tops, since it is the top that we all love anyhow.
One of the main things that Microsoft has done that is evil and still going on is use their monopoly to put inferior products into a market dominant position and then don't even bother to make them approach the capabilities of what they replaced.
With Office 2007, they did at least make a bold step of redoing the user interface, and abandoned the process of randomly making menu items in the standard menu not show up seemingly at random and made the standard menu options largely a thing of the past. I see this as progress, because between 1996 and now, that and the implementation of pivot tables is about all the newer MS Office had over Word Perfect and Quattro Pro. Even now, Excel seems incapable of producing readable graphs if your data has the slightest complexity, and the ability to customize graphs without using scripting is extremely limited. Quattro Pro did this with ease.
If you recall, IBM, although they let people make IBM compatible PCs, they used microchannel architecture which was incompatible with other manufacturers PCs, so their PCs were incompatible with many nifty things available for other computers. That was their downfall as much as anything else. Other PCs could do more because they could take advantage of nifty third party stuff.
For years, the saying went, nobody gets fired for going with IBM. Then Microsoft replaced them in that saying. Now, Google does seem much more likely to be the replacement in that phrase than Apple: much of their products are business focused and they personify the mythical central computer I heard about as early as 1977 that knows all about everyone. On the other hand, Apple does seem much more experienced at deliberate evil e.g. drm at iTunes.
Maybe we will get some market diversity at long last in that they will both be 800lb gorillas.
It is worth noting that Pebble in the Sky was his first novel.
I think he got better at explaining stuff in a credible way later rather than relying on on almost Star Trek like science mumblings, but his romance scenes are pedestrian in that they remind me of description of someone crossing the street.
Note: I *do* notice the hilarity inherent in the fact that I thank you for teaching me "logical thinking" and then mention my decision to leave Knox to join the Circus. Clown school, specifically!
I still can't believe it. You are one of the best teachers I have ever worked with in my entire life, bar none. I left Knox to join the Circus, and now that I'm leaving the Circus to study Cognitive Science, I'm so grateful for the incredible foundation you gave me in logical thinking. I really feel that you changed my life, and I hope you find a school that appreciates your incredible talents.
I have found other Chekov plays boring, or at best dreary. They generally seem like they would be better to act than to watch.
I was a good friend of Mike's and I recently found out about his death. I have a photo of him that I keep that he gave me and some really good memories. I miss him and my heart goes out to his family.
RIP Mike
I just assume that whenever I read a Traditional Media article on any complex subject, they're either lying or too stupid to process it correctly. Saves time.
Good grief! You just brought a flood of agony-filled memories back to me. I had (blissfully) forgotten how bad it was there. I guess it goes to show that even if you have the best Computer Science professors you won't necessarily have the best IT. Please at least tell me they support OS X to some degree now. Even into 2005 they seemed to be pretty oblivious to its existence. To be fair, I could never decide if it was worse to have Windows and be "supported" or have a Mac and have to hack and juryrig almost everything. I recall at one point that in order to register a computer on the student network you had to visit a webpage that "required" Internet Explorer. Thank goodness for user agent spoofing.
I bought a couple of crescent shaped roll cooker at the dollar store for a dollar each. They are small. I use them to microwave cook eggs mixed with spices and cheese. They don't stick. They wash up easy. The eggs end up having a cool looking crescent shape. Very cool cookware. Probably made in China.
I don't know about in your case; however, last night I found flyers lying around DePaul and lo and behold the same thing is happening to one of their faculty who has done tremendous things for the campus and university. There is a facebook group and they are even holding a protest, the faculty I have talked to seems to think this is a great way of going about it, and feel that it will make a difference. The only thing I can hope for is a positive outcome in your case as well.
As the wife of a Knox Alum, I can tell you with utmost certainty your time was not wasted. My husband mentions and uses the things he learned from you more frequently than I can count. The day Knox College loses you, will be sad day for them indeed.
Well, I am not surprised that so many are shocked.
Take a look at http://w140.com/kurt/installing_xv_in_ubuntu.html and http://www.halibutdepot.org/xv/building_xv_on_ubuntu.html
You can have xv on Ubuntu.
I bought it; I thought (correctly) that I'd be wanting to use it in fits and starts over the course of many days, rather than blasting through all my cuts in just a day or two. When the walls and floors aren't quite straight, plumb, or level, no two cuts are the same, and that slows things down a bit. :)
So, did you rent or buy the tile saw?
