Do you ever create something and just sigh...ah, yes, THIS is me, THIS is the one. That is what happened when I made this bench.
It isn't all that different from my typical style, but the wood edge and legs really made the colors pop for me.
I started by cutting a bunch of painted pallet boards (PAINT TECHNIQUE HERE) the same length (12 inches maybe, I don't remember).
I joined them together with a pallet board running down the middle of them, screwing in from the underside.
I then cut reclaimed oak board to the length of the joined pallet boards, and 2 shorter pieces for the width. I screwed this into the thicker pallet wood pieces.
I added 2x2 legs with a brace in between them--this makes for a more stable bench.
I used stain on all of it afterwards--in Provencial I believe.
Something about that rustic wood and those bright colors that speak to me.
How did you attach the brace to the legs Becky! I'd love to try & replicate it. Not completely identical, but close.
So darn cute and rustic--Love it!
It is beautiful!! I love your style Becky!
I love this thank you for sharing! I also love using bright color with the rustic look!
Super Cute! I can see why it sold fast. You'll have to make another one to keep - ha!
Love the paint job! Just wanted to let you know that I featured a photo from this post in my weekly round-up. It's linked back with photo and text links :-). Happy Sunday!
I absolutely love this! Thanks for sharing your projects.
This is awesome, and totally "Becky" style. You have a distinctive style, color choices; I think I could recognize it anywhere! And I think you should make another one to keep too!
The colors you use are truly sensational! Congratulations!
Your works are original and very beautiful! Greetings from 'Italy!
Love your colorful bench, and your paint style!

Mike Danton hopes to return to NHL as his parole sentence ends this week
By James O'BrienJan 19, 2011, 7:48 PM EST
In some ways, it's hard to believe that Mike Danton played in the NHL as recently as the 2004 playoffs. In fact, he scored a goal on his only career playoff shot on April 13, 2004, just three days before he was arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit murder when he attempted to hire a hitman to kill his then-agent David Frost.
(Deadspin provides a nice rundown of the very odd story here.)
He eventually was sentenced to seven and a half years in prison on November 8, 2004 for the failed murder plot. Danton received full parole on September 11, 2009, according to Hockey Reference.com. He resumed his hockey career at Saint Mary's in Halifax, Nova Scotia recently, but is hoping for more going forward. With Danton's parole sentence ending on Friday, the Associated Press reports that the troubled forward hopes to make a return to the NHL. That being said, Danton admits that the odds are against him.
Even without his troubled background, a player with a marginal impact like Danton made in his career (nine goals and five assists for 14 points, a -8 rating and 141 PIM in 87 career games) would struggle to return to the highest level after such a long layoff.
He's obviously been through a lot after that bizarre ordeal, but he faces the kind of odds that would be far fetched even for a Disney movie, let alone an unforgiving sport like hockey. We wish him the best as he tries to move along with his life, whether that happens on the ice or sitting in a cubicle.

Increased awareness of the ways in which a home's design can enhance energy efficiency is becoming evident in many home designs NSW.
NSW home builders are frequently asked to include solar panels, water conservation measures, easy transitions between indoors and outdoors and even the option to install Tesla batteries to home designs, but one of the most significant steps forward in this area is in passive solar design.
Passive solar design is all about using the sun's energy for the heating and cooling of a home. A lot of this has to do with building materials, which can reflect, transmit, or absorb the solar radiation. At the same time, the movement of the heat produced by the sun can be manipulated through the clever use of design elements and materials.
A typical passive solar system comprises a number of features. The first of these is referred to as an aperture or collector and usually translates to a large glass area, through which sunlight enters the building. Next, the absorber is storage element featuring a hard, darkened surface that sits in the direct path of sunlight. Another key element is known as thermal mass and this should be made from materials that retain or store the heat produced by sunlight. While the absorber is an exposed surface, the thermal mass is the material below and behind this surface.
Distribution is another key aspect of this kind of system and refers to the means by which solar heat circulates from the collection and storage points to different areas of the house. Another complementary component is the 'control' which might take the form of roof overhangs that shade the aperture during summer months. Other controls include electronic sensing devices, such as a thermostat, vents and dampers that allow or restrict heat flow; low-emissivity blinds; and awnings.
There are a number of ways to capture that heat. For example, have you ever considered that your living room can function as a solar collector, heat absorber and distribution system? The inclusion of north facing glass admits solar energy into the house where it strikes floors and walls, which absorb and store the solar heat, which is radiated back out into the room at night. If these elements are executed in a dark material, they will absorb the optimum heat possible.
In terms of cooling your home, passive solar cooling systems work by reducing unwanted heat gain during the day. So, in summer, all windows should be shaded by a large eve, veranda or similar structure, as well as shading solutions such as awnings, shutters and trellises.
Thermal mass can also be used in a passive cooling design to absorb heat and moderate internal temperature increases on hot days. During the night, thermal mass can be cooled using ventilation, allowing it to be ready the next day to absorb heat again. It is possible to use the same thermal mass for cooling during the hot season and heating during the cold season.
Naturally ventilation is a very important element of any passive cooling system, maintaining an indoor temperature that is close to the outdoor temperature, so it's only an effective cooling technique when the indoor temperature is equal to or higher than the outdoor one. The climate determines the best natural ventilation strategy.
To make the most of breezes and ventilation during the day, a good Sydney home design should feature openable windows on the side of the building facing the breeze and the opposite one to create cross ventilation – put simply, this involves designing windows into the walls facing the prevailing breeze and opposite walls.
Another form of passive cooling is convective cooling, whose purpose is to bring in cool night air from the outside and push out hot interior air. If there are prevailing night time breezes, then high vent or open on the leeward side (the side away from the wind) will let the hot air near the ceiling escape. Low vents on the opposite side (the side towards the wind) will let cool night air sweep in to replace the hot air.
At sites where there aren't prevailing breezes, it's still possible to use convective cooling by creating thermal chimneys. Thermal chimneys are designed around the fact that warm air rises; they create a warm or hot zone of air (often through solar gain) and have a high exterior exhaust outlet. The hot air exits the building at the high vent, and cooler air is drawn in through a low vent.
There are many different approaches to creating the thermal chimney effect. One is an attached north facing sunroom that is vented at the top. Air is drawn from the living space through connecting lower vents to be exhausted through the sunroom upper vents (the upper vents from the sunroom to the living space and any operable windows must be closed and the thermal mass wall of the sunroom must be shaded).


1. If the above picture looks good to you, here's the recipe. For the love of refrigerator space, please halve the recipe. I did, and I still have mucho mucho leftovers. That's okay though cause it's Y-U-M.
2. Debated using half or halve on number one. By the time I post it I will be semi-sure though. English majors, speak up.
Wednesday. I wonder if he gets paid for this.
Friday. It got a chuckle.
4. I think Pete needs a vacation. He wasn't very informative/funny/creative this week.
5. So, if you love free stuff…go here. This is my fave site for the week. Thanks for the tip Sara!
7. Lala had to have her tooth (molar) pulled on Tuesday. It was rough. But it makes for really cute Dear Toothfairy letters.
I can't put it [tooth] under my pillow because the dentist took it and [pulled] it out hard!!!!!!! Please still give me a quarter.
9. For the record, our fairy gives out a dollar. And she was going to give more than one this time, but when she saw she could get away with a quarter she reconsidered.
11. Only ten days till school starts! And I've done absolutely no school shopping yet. Please tell me I'm not the only one.
12. The streak was broken yesterday. There will only be 40 days of 100 degree or over heat in a row this year for north Texas. My oldest was really pulling for us to break the record. Yes, he's a teen.
13. I can't wait to try it!!!!
14. I'm really glad no one showed up for my garage sale, cause it so didn't happen.
15. Glad that I find out about Rockin' the River at the end of summer vacay. not.
That is a question crossing a lot of minds these days. My husband talked me into joining late last May. He hasn't made a comment SINCE May. I, on the other hand have had 267 – one-hundred and forty characters or less comments.
1. You may become addicted. Seriously, no kidding here.
3. It's yet another place to regret what you've said.
4. When the site is down, there is a possibility for adverse effects on your sanity.
5. You have to learn a whole new jargon… hashtags (#), RT (re-tweet), DM (direct message), FF (follow Friday) and many, many more!
1. You get to meet fantastic people that you otherwise would never meet. I've met about five people who are really cool and helpful writers and they're NICE on top of it all.
2. There's the possibility that someone famous will like what you say and repeat it to the masses, giving you credit, of course.
3. It's a great way to advertise your blog, product, service.
4. Everyone understands when you state that "you need to take a social networking break".
5. People share the coolest things they find online, commiserate with each other…basically communicate.
This is all considering that you do what I do and only follow people that you've checked out fairly well. If they have a blog, look at it and see if they are compatible with your standards or you may end up with unwanted trash in your tweets. If that does happen there's hope, you can always unfollow them.

Dating on a dime
By Dave Ramsey
Published January 31, 2011 at 12:00am
I'm a recent college graduate, and I'm determined to follow your plan and get out of debt. My biggest problem is when it comes to dating. Things aren't cheap today, so aside from not dating, how do you handle this area of your life when you're trying to get your finances in order?
Dear Roland,
First of all, you definitely need to date people. I couldn't have gone without dating, especially at your age. So, I'm not going to tell you to do something I couldn't do.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with dating inexpensively if you're thoughtful. Just don't be so cheap that you're freakish about things. There are plenty of nice, stylish places that don't cost an arm and a leg. A picnic and a Frisbee will go a long way on a pretty day! Your efforts to be a gentleman and make things happen in creative ways will be a lot more charming to any lady worth dating than throwing down an extra $100 at a snooty restaurant you can't afford.
The other thing is to make dating part of your monthly budget. In your situation, it's a legitimate expense, and you need to make it part of your financial game plan. Then, if you're seeing someone on a regular basis, and the money in the "dating" envelope is getting low, you can explain to her that you're working hard to manage your money properly so you'll be wealthy one day.
This will make you even more attractive to the right kind of person, because it shows that you're mature enough and responsible enough to be thinking toward and planning for the future!
Nix the lawn service?
We currently pay to have our lawn mowed each week. This expense is figured into our monthly budget, but we're not quite out of debt yet. My wife says this is a luxury at this point, and I should cut the grass myself until we're out of debt. What do you think?
Dear Ty,
I think it depends a lot on your income. If you're a surgeon making $350,000 a year, then making lawn care part of your monthly budget is probably pretty reasonable. Now, if you're only making $26,000 a year, you probably need to get behind the mower and start pushing it yourself!
Is this a snobbish attitude? I don't think so. It's a simple matter of mathematics. What is your personal time worth in the marketplace, and should you be plying your trade out in the world rather than mowing the lawn?
Let's say you're an attorney who charges $400 an hour. In that case, you're probably going to be better off out there lawyering – especially if you're trying to get out of debt – than you would pushing a mower. But if you make $12 an hour, it's a good idea for you to be cutting your own grass, isn't it?
Whether or not something is a "luxury" depends on your own personal income and financial situation. That's how I look at it.

Nursing a bruised face – and a consoling beer – while standing in the raised bucket of a mechanical digger on the outskirts of New Zealand's southernmost city is an unusual way to conclude a motor racing career, but Leslie Lynn Marr has rarely taken the obvious route. Scion of a marriage that conjoined North East shipbuilding/owning dynasties, a cosseted life in the family firms beckoned. But ships had never floated his boat.
"There was pressure to do the family thing," says Leslie. "My uncle, who was in charge because my father had died [when Leslie was nine], said there was a place for me, if I got a degree. Not that he had one, you understand." Leslie duly obtained an engineering degree from Pembroke College, Cambridge, but war then intervened.
Back in the UK Marr became part of the controversially fervent Borough Group under the tutelage of David Bomberg, an artist derided by many contemporaries but retrospectively eulogised as a giant of 20th century British art. Leslie remains a practising professional artist. At 86, he uses a studio more than he used to, but still works fast, boldly and vividly. It's a passion that has ebbed only briefly.
"My time with Bomberg was intense and eventually I had a big fallout with him, and with painting. If that hadn't happened, I don't think I'd have gone racing.
"It was cars that had grabbed my engineering attention; I liked knowing what all the clatters and squeaks meant. But most of all I liked driving them. My first race was in 1950 in my old Aston Martin International. It was wonderful." Here, then, was his new passion.
In 1951 Marr stepped up to a 1934 Aston Martin Ulster team car, LM15. And for '52 Ecurie Oppidans, a team he had set up with AM expert Derrick Edwards, had a big plan: an F2 Connaught A-type.
"It was quite a leap, but I wasn't worried. I was just excited about getting the car. In fact, it was difficult to buy a car from them. Cooper would've sold me one just like that, I suppose, but I preferred the Connaught: it was a beautiful piece of engineering.
"Mike Thorburn, Connaught's front man, told me there was a car for sale but the firm wasn't sure to whom to sell it. But after he'd seen me have a terrific ding-dong with a Jowett Jupiter he said I could have it." And so chassis A5 was Leslie's, for £1800, and not long after Mike Hawthorn had raced it to victory in August's National Trophy at Turnberry.
"I underestimated the car completely," admits Marr. "The first time I drove it I went off at the end of the long straight at Snetterton. I was used to the Aston, which did 100mph; the Connaught did very much more. I thought, 'Hell, I can't stop!' I went sideways and knocked down a small tree." Undeterred, Leslie was hooked. His mother, however, was not so keen.
That season Marr scored wins in minor Formule Libre races at Snetterton and Silverstone, and set fastest practice time, 0.6mph off Stirling Moss's 1951 HWM mark, for the Wakefield Trophy at the tricky Curragh circuit.
The following season started well with a third place behind Ken Wharton's BRM V16 in Goodwood's Glover Trophy. Leslie again finished third (in the F2 class) at an Aintree 200 run in torrential conditions, and was the third British car home (13th overall) at the British GP. At Oulton Park's Gold Cup he qualified fifth, ahead of Roy Salvadori's Maserati 250F, and finished seventh. He also finished third in that meeting's Formule Libre race. He was getting better. Gradually. But it was double-or-quits time because the new F1, introduced in 1954, had marginalised F2. Marr gambled: A5 was sold, and he put his name down for one of the new B-types, complete with all-enveloping body.
"I hadn't really thought about the body, but when Rodney [Clarke, the car's designer] recommended I go for the streamliner – 'It'll cost you another £500' – I said OK.
"Rodney was a genius. He thought about the car all the time. He'd be talking to you when suddenly he'd whip out his notebook, eyes glazed, to jot down an idea for a new mod. At the back of his office was a big yard, and across that was the workshop. Connecting the buildings were two straight, painted white lines. I parked over them once and was ordered to move, because the 'old man', mind full of a new idea, head down, would have walked into my car.
"They admitted later that the streamliner wasn't the better body option. I didn't like not being able to see the front wheels, and when you took your foot off the throttle it didn't slow down like a normal single-seater. I wasn't convinced, but I thought, 'Well, I'm stuck with it.' I didn't want to spend any more money." Chassis B3 had cost him £4000.
Delays meant Marr's 1955 season didn't start until late May. His debut victory at Davidstow, Cornwall was of the minor variety, but it provided the marque with a welcome morale boost. The wave of race cancellations in Europe following the Le Mans disaster, however, stymied Leslie's plans to contest some of the lesser events. There were fewer opportunities to use an expensive F1 car, so he had a quiet year. He spun out of the British GP with disc brake failure, had a couple of dices – won one, lost one – with Jack Brabham's Bristol-engined Cooper Bobtail at Charterhall, and out-qualified Peter Collins and Alfonso de Portago at the Gold Cup. He removed the body to compete at Shelsley and Brighton, but although he enjoyed such against-the-clock events, they weren't the F1 adventure he'd anticipated. The chance to race in New Zealand was.
"The streamliner was an eye-catcher and the organisers really wanted it. They paid my fare, Derrick's and the car's." It was to be a trip of contrasting fortunes. It didn't begin well. The New Zealand GP was held at Ardmore, near Auckland. The UK cars, Moss's 250F, the B-type – fitted (by Connaught) with a 3.4 Jaguar D-type engine for improved reliability — two 750S-engined Ferrari 500s for Peter Whitehead and Tony Gaze, and Reg Parnell's one-off Aston Martin DB3R single-seater, were shipped to Wellington by mistake.
"The Connaught arrived in the middle of a dock strike. Even the New Zealand PM couldn't get it released, so Derrick went to Wellington and had just about bribed the dockers when the foreman turned up. He wanted paying too. At which point Derrick, who was tough, threatened to chuck him over the side. We got the car.
Despite not having practised, Leslie finished fourth behind the runaway Moss. Then he finished third in the Lady Wigram Trophy. Hey, this wasn't so bad. Cue the Dunedin Road Race.
Next was the Southland Road Race in February 1956 at Ryal Bush, a 3.6-mile triangle of roads north of Invercargill. "It was narrow, but at least it was metalled. We were doing 170mph in places. I got pole but made a bad start and a Ferrari got ahead. I was following closely when it threw up a stone that felt like a brick when it hit my face. I got upset and tried to overtake at the next corner, and finished backwards in a ditch. I should've won, but I'm pleased I didn't. If I had, I wouldn't have retired and would probably have finished up dead.
"Although I was getting a bit tired of it all, I hadn't planned to stop. But when Connaught told me I needed a new engine that would cost £1000, and that it might last two or three races, I decided to get out. Connaught bought the car back for what I'd paid, so I did all right.
She was right to: the cars were fast, the drivers bold, the death rate vivid. The picture painted is exciting, not pretty.


There's a youthful look to the squad which includes no fewer than 14 former Ireland Under 19 internationals, including Shapoorji Pallonji Cricket Ireland Academy Player of the Year Jack Tector. Also making their first appearance in the EPP line-up are Gary McClintock, Bobby Gamble and Robert McKinley.
Leinster all-rounder Joe Carroll is also included for the first time in the 19 man squad thanks to his strong performances in domestic cricket in 2015.
Cricket Ireland have revamped the EPP format, which will now operate on a centralised rather than regional basis with a new team of specialist coaches.
Ireland assistant coach Pete Johnston will head up the programme, with Ian McGregor appointed as Lead Coach. Eugene Moleon is the fast bowling coach, while former internationals Albert van der Merwe (spin bowling), Nigel Jones (ODI/batting against pace) and Andrew White (multi-day and batting against spin) add their considerable experience to the coaching resources. Brendan Connor (Strength and Conditioning) and Scott Irvine (Performance Analyst) complete the eight man coaching line-up.
"The selectors have chosen this squad in line with succession planning - identifying players for potential future roles across all formats at senior level," said Peter Johnston. "It gives them the opportunity to train in a focused role specific environment, with an emphasis on development and tactical awareness. We are running a programme of skill sets in batting, bowling and around multi-day and limited overs cricket.
Johnston is looking forward to working with his coaching team who he feels will not only develop the players but also themselves.
Cricket Ireland are currently in the process of scheduling the Ireland A fixture list for 2016, which in addition to matches during the season will hopefully include a three week tour after the Irish season.


Recently Pure American Naturals has been accepted for inclusion under the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture's PA Preferred brand. PA Preferred is the officially recognized branding program of products grown or made in Pennsylvania. Originally designed to help consumers easily identify products produced in Pennsylvania, the program has grown to include thousands of companies across the Commonwealth. From fresh fruits and vegetables to farmers' markets, plant nurseries, fiber mills, restaurants, hardwood products, wineries, and Christmas trees, PA Preferred represents the dynamic diversity of the Keystone state's agriculture.
The program is a collaborative effort between the State's Department of Agriculture, its several thousand members, and the conscientious consumers who support the shop local, support local initiative. With its bright blue and gold labeling, Pennsylvanians are able to shop for affordable, locally produced fruits and vegetables, wines, cheeses, and so much more. This is where PAN comes in; our friendly little goats grow their lush mohair locks on little more than the high quality forages native to Pennsylvania, which is in turn milled into sustainably produced fashion items. Our Pure American Naturals products are grown, milled, and produced all within the Commonwealth. There are guidelines that allow the inclusion of a limited percentage of outside materials; the luxurious Merino wool used in our socks is produced in Texas, as part of our partnership with Hillingdon Ranch, however this is a minor percentage in the finished product.

Colby Covington Still As Confident As Ever Despite TKO Loss Says Dan Lambert
Colby Covington has largely stayed quiet after his fifth round TKO loss to Kamaru Usman on Saturday night, other than to chastise the referee for stopping the fight, but American Top Team owner Dan Lambert says the fighter is still as confident as ever.
"He is a 10 out of 10 as far as what I would hope his mindset would be after a fight like that," Lambert told mmafighting.com. "He wants to get right back in. He wants to get right back into training. He wants to get back into training as soon as he's ready health wise. He wants to get back and prove that he's the best.
"You never know how a fighter's going to respond to something like that. When I first talked to him, I had my concerns cause you just never know. I could not have scripted his response any better than what I heard from him. He's 1,000 percent positive, 1,000 percent motivated. He's ready to go. He didn't lose one piece of confidence in himself."
Lambert also stated that despite Covington's loss, he believes that his performance and the fact he fought on for three rounds with a broken jaw has only elevated his status in the fight game.
"It was a hell of a fight," Lambert said. "Both those guys, I think both their stock went up after a fight like that, which is typically something you don't say after a fight. Both guys proved they had balls of steel and cardio for days. I give credit to both of them."


CGT are back to what they do best: arranging covers of classic rock in their own inimitable style. Doing up the classics is part and parcel for the ensemble with two of Beethoven's well known melodies. "Unmei" is in a Spanish style that not only suits the piece but also brandishes some heavy guitar playing (now a regular feature in the group). My all time favorite Pink Floyd piece, "Echoes," is presented in guitar craft style with familiar phrasing carefully spread across each player. Paul Richard's slide guitar lead-in works well to set the tone for the dual leads that carry the old vocal lines forward. Spacey effects backing from Theremin player Pamelia Kurstin make this a sweet performance and a new peak of craftsmanship. Mike Oldfield's classic "Tubular Bells" is faithfully adapted to the three fretboard attack due in part to Oldfield's original emphasis on electric string instrumentation. Part of the King Crimson rhythm section (Pat Mastelotto and Tony Levin) makes a a strong cameo appearances to decisively lock in the low end. Krokodil's "And I Know" is a completely new direction as they play a swing style open chord piece with Jamie Masfield on "Mandolin." Southern rock anthem "Freebird," together with Queen's signature song "Bohemian Rhapsody" are two of the CGT's most appreciated live performances. Overall this recording serves not only as a reinvention but a testament to the trio's penchant for couching familiarity within surprise.
