Home Bar Design Ideas Questions Answered!

  1. Home business-what would you pay?

    I am brainstorming ideas for things to make/sell with a home business. 1. How likely would you be to buy this item from an individual? 2. What would you pay for this stuff, if anything? A. Crochet doilies, dishcloths, snowflakes, scarves B. Cross stitched ornaments, bookmarks, sipper cups, mugs, pin cushions, scented sachets, wall hangings, coasters (the coaster patterns wouldnt get spilled on cuz they have plastic seperating your drink from the pattern) C. Handmade jewelry like earrings, headbands, barrettes using seed beads or complicated design friendship jewelry or hemp D. Stollen, cookies, and bars for parties or holidays--how much for 1 stollen or 1 dozen bars/cookies? E. Homemade spice mixes (a blend of several spices to make a spice to use in baking/cooking) like spaghetti spice mix, chili spice mix, taco spice mix, rice seasoning mix, onion soup mix

  2. Please help me finish a site design!?

    The client I am designing this site for is really starting to frustrate me. I have changed designs four different times now and it has caused me to get an extreme case of designer's block. I designed a header that goes well with what he wants. However, everything else is about to cause me to pull my hair out. He believes his site's home page needs to be loaded with both content and links. Please take a look at what I have so far (www.fightingsquirrels.net/dana.html) and help me with everything south of the menu bar. Do you have any suggestions, or ideas? I need to keep the "featured listings" on the main page but other than that, I think wowing him with the design will make him forget about everything else. Thanks in advance!

  3. Web design problem with text-decoration: none; in firefox.link's wont change?

    At the minute i'm building a web page, i'm still designing the home page in the Safari browser, everything is perfect... but when i display it in Firefox a few of the anchor images in the navigation bar's have got a blue border around them, ive tried text decoration none but they wont seem to go and it's gettin on my nerves, i can handle quite a few css hack's in internet explorer, but this problem ive got now puzzles me , its like the blue link border around my navigation images are stuck on, which look's a mess, any of you got idea's ? thank for your time.

  4. How do I adjust/center my brakes? Both front and back ones are rubbing the tire rims...?

    I have a 2007 Lemond Tourmalet (WSD), and I think that carrying the bike on my ancient trunk rack did something to the brake alignment. After I took it off the rack when I reached home, I noticed that the front brake was dragging on the wheel. It wasn't like that during my long ride. I looked at both the front and rear brakes, and they are shifted too far to the right (when you stand over the bike and look down at the wheels). Does anyone have ideas on how to adjust them? My owner's manual wasn't very helpful. for now, I adjusted the barrel so that the brakes are more open to prevent the rubbing, but as a result, I have to squeeze really hard to stop efficiently. Related questions: would one of those bar adapter (I don't know the official name) I saw at the bike shop really help with transporting a bike? It's this bar that I (guess) you attach to the WSD bike so that it fits better on trunk racks that are designed more for men's frames.

  5. Help with HTML spacing/padding?

    I'm in the processing of starting a blog on Typepad and am having some trouble designing my navigation bar. Right now there are 4 links in the navigation bar, "home about photos contact." Basically they are all listed next to each other horizontally on the left side of the page, but I want to spread them out so that they go across the top of the page - instead of just being all smahed on the left side. I don't have any experience with HTML, though I have done a few things so far on the blog involving CSS (not sure if CSS and HTML are related). From what i've read I have to do something with padding? But I have absolutely NO idea how to do this. Is there anyone that could help me with this? I don't plan on doing much HTML stuff on my blog, so I really don't want to have to buy a book on it just for this one thing. I'd really appreciate it!! Thanks so much! Here is the code so far...

    No, I am not from RTU. I don't even know what that is...haha

  6. Pulling my hair out! Please help!?

    I am working on a non-profit web site and re-designing the whole web site and pages. I am frustrated in that I am trying to link a 20 page PDF document to a roll over button on the Home page navigation bar. When you test the home page and click on the specific roll over button, the PDF file does not open up. All I get is a white blank screen with the words "done" in the status bar. I do have Adobe Reader so that should not be the problem. I have checked the HTML coding to ensure it is accurate and I am at a standstill as I cannot figure out what I am doing that is not working. I have been using Dream Weaver 8 for a few years now without any problems until today :0D. Can anyone give me some ideas? Thank you

  7. Do you want to go to heaven? Read this please.?

    But is wanting to go enough? Will everyone who wants to go find themselves in Heaven for eternity? If not, what else is necessary for us to live with the Lord after we die? We will search the scriptures and find the answers to these and many other questions. Notice where I said we would find the answers...in the scriptures. An open Bible and an open mind are essential to a proper understanding of God's word. Should you have questions about anything you find on this site please let your Bible be your guide. I’ve provided links to an online Bible should you not have your personal Bible with you. We will be judged by the words spoken by Jesus (John 12:48). These words were not spoken on His own authority, but He spoke only what God instructed Him to speak (John 12:49,50). Men do not have the authority to speak anything more or less than that we have revealed to us in the scriptures. To do so invites error and everlasting punishment. Please do not risk your eternal soul on the opinion of another, no matter how well respected they may be. I’ve designed the navigation bar to be used from the top down. I begin with an introduction to my website. Next, I’ve provided links for those who are interested in participating in a free home Bible correspondence course or an online series of interactive Bible lessons. The studies I’ve published to my site begin with Jesus Christ. After learning about Jesus and His sufferings on earth the site takes you to a study of religious authority. Christianity, and religion in general, is filled with differing opinions and ideas. We must understand where to find true religious authority if we’re going to be pleasing to God. As you continue down the series of lessons you’ll learn about belief, salvation, discipleship, God’s calling, grace, the church and the reality of hell. The next series of studies is designed to address issues that divide Christianity into the 34,000 different religious organizations we have today. In this section we’ll look at the sinner’s prayer and the teachings of several different Christian denominations. In the next section you’ll find a study of different non-Christian religions. The final section includes a number of newspaper articles (“It is Settled”), topical studies, word studies, Spanish language articles, poetry and humorous short stories. I’ve added a guestbook, links page and my e-mail address for your use. Please feel free to add your comments to the guestbook or e-mail your questions to me. I’ll be happy to answer them to the best of my ability. This site is a work in progress, so return often and check for newly-published lessons. God's Word is powerful, able to divide soul from spirit, joints from marrow, and discern the thoughts and intents of the heart (Hebrews 4:12). I will not try to "soften the blow" the scriptures may inflict on the hearts of those who are actively seeking to understand God's truth. One of the challenges teachers face is to present material to their students in a fashion the students can understand, but not take away from the impact of the material being taught. My goal is to present God's Word in a way that is easily understood by all who are studying with me, but to allow it to use its power for change and to direct the feet of those who are willing to follow its lead along that narrow path to eternal life. Some of my comments may seem strong--they are meant to be. Again I ask that you open the Word of God as we go through our studies and determine for yourselves the truth of His Word. In the end we will each answer for ourselves as we stand before God at the Day of Judgment. I hope the lessons we study together will help you as you continue your walk in this life and prepare you to stand before God in that great Day of Judgment.

  8. Atheists, feminists: what is a good title for my bible-verse-based poster?

    I'm designing a poster and cannot think of a good title for it. It's anti-christianity in that it will include a number of verses that are anti-feminism and frankly, anti-woman. The list includes 10 verses: Genesis 3:16: I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you." 1 Timothy 2:11-12 A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent. Ephesians 5:22-24 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. 1 Corinthians 11:7-9 A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church. Isaiah 3:12 Youths oppress my people, women rule over them. O my people, your guides lead you astray; they turn you from the path. Numbers 31:17-18 Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man. 1 Corinthians: 11:3 Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Exodus 22:16  If a man rapes a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the bride-price, and she shall be his wife. Nahum 3:13 Look at your troops—they are all women! The gates of your land 
       are wide open to your enemies; fire has consumed their bars. Any ideas for the title? The verses won't be in the above order. I originally wanted something like "The Ten Commandments: for Women Only" but only a few of the verses above include actual commands. Any other ideas? Thanks! Edit: error above^. There are MORE than 10 verses here, obviously, but they will be broken up into 10 clusters as they were found, as shown above. Tag: wow, thanks for all of those! And for the record, this crap IS why I left christianity 2 years ago, at age 15. I randomly found Ephesians 5:22 and it was all downhill from there.

  9. $800.00 by 1-10-2009?

    I need to make $800.00 by the 10th of January. I am a stay at home mom and I am going back to school this semester. my husband lost his job and has had no luck finding a new one since no one seems to be hiring these days, he has been excepted into an internship school program but we are not sure when he will be going, he does bouncing at a local bar and odd jobs here and there to make ends meet. I have a job lined up in mid February so there is a light at the end of the tunnel but I need to make $800.00 by the 10th of january so we don't loose our house before I start working. Any ideas on how I could make some fast cash? I am willing to do several small things if needed. I am open to any ideas except yard sales because I don't ever have any luck with that sort of thing in my area and I have sold pretty much everything I can so far. I am good at cooking, cleaning, sewing, I do a little web design (that is what I will be going to school for, as of now I only have a basic knowledge), I am a writer, hmmm, I am sure I have other talents but that's all I can think of off hand. I have very little funds so doing something that would cost me a lot upfront is out of the question. any ideas are appreciated! Thanks in advance!

  10. Css Problems...Again?

    Clearly, I'm not very good at this. Surely, someone can figure it out The problem that I'm having is that link within the "main" div revert to the style that is supposed to be for the nav bar rather than going to the style that is defined for the document right after the body tag in the css (it comes up in a big blue block instead of just being orange text). The weird thing is that it worked fine at first but, I guess I messed something up at some point and now its screwed. Any ideas? Here is the code: Matthew Hager | EMS

  11. My mother-in-law called me a lazy drunk from Fresno & I am NOT from Fresno! Advice on how to deal with this?

    Here she was, shaking me by the shirt collar, calling me a lazy drunken bum, and I was having a hard time focusing; I was still on the couch where I'd passed out several hours earlier after coming home from the bar and was just coming to, see. I really don't understand why she couldn't just let me rest; geez it was still early, about 9:30 in the morning; liquor stores aren't even open yet at that time! Still, she continued her shrieking, something about why the hell I'd parked my car on the lawn; I couldn't quite make it out, my hangover left my head pounding. Anyway, I was stumbling to the kitchen to get some aspirin, and my mother-in-law is just keeping it up, saying how classy I looked in my rumpled jacket, shirt & tie, but why was I only in my boxer shorts, but still had my socks and shoes on? Can you believe this woman?! I'm trying my best to make a bloody mary with my shaking hands, and she's worried over questions of fashion! My pants are probably just down at the bar anyway; they'll hold them for me. She then started in about me not working; well, I am a freelance illustrator, and it isn't so easy to drum up work, you know. She doesn't give me credit, however; doesn't she realize how many times the guys down at the bar have bought me drinks in exchange for my drawing tattoo designs for them?! The last straw, however, was when she made the crack about Fresno. Where in the world did she get the idea I was from Fresno! Please! I'm from a classy city, San Bernardino! This is just one insult too many from this old nag! How can I deal with this shrew?

  12. This is my essay for my ESL writing class. Can anyone give me any advice? Thank you very much.?

    My siblings and I are crazy about shopping online. Every other week a package is delivered in front of our door. Buying online provides us much simpler to find anything what we need and is easy to compare with other similar products. I usually scan my favorite webpage to find out their new products rather than spending half day to go to the mall. According to a research report, ‘How Do People Evaluate a Web Site's Credibility?’ by Stanford University and Consumer Web Watch states, “With more than 50 percent of the U.S. population having Internet access, the World Wide Web has become an important channel for providing information and services.” (2002) Therefore, the companies put a lot of resources to create an attractive and useful webpage in order to keep their consumers to stay and browse their websites. A good retailer website all contains the effective elements on it such as organizing categories, the ability to read, the ability to search items, and ability to realize the item from the picture. The two retailer web sites I am going to evaluate are The Body Shop website (TBS) and The Bath and Body Work website (BBW). As a consumer, I realize TBS is more successful, because of its pleasing visual appeal, smooth easy access, and understandable information. TBS has better visual appeal than BBW web. Visual appeal is the setting of pictures, color tones and graphic presentations which always give us the first impression. A web design expert, Tom Dahm states, “Color is also important for emphasizing the most important parts of our page. Remember that the purpose of Web design is to draw the visitor's eye to key page elements.” (2001). TBS keep using green consistently to highlight its natural ingredients, so the basic colors of website are green, white and black. On the homepage, it presents the products in front of the leaves with the black background. The clear background colors are not only for emphasizing TBS’s natural idea but also for highlighting of the soft color of its skin product’s image. TBS impacts visitors to have a positive impression about its natural products by using leaves in the background to make a color contrast with its products’ surface tone. In addition, there is a big rectangular picture in the middle of the website and three small rectangular pictures on its bottom. For all pictures, it shows the products on the left and descriptions on the right. Using this simple design can help the consumer to discover the products and the promotion at same time. The heading also defines the important promotion explicitly, and makes consumer easily to get into the sale event. In contrast, BBW is using a light brown color in autumn. The color of BBW’s homepage is changed many times with the seasons. The brown is not a right choice, because it does not match its colorful products. BBW uses flash pictures to show three different products which are home fragrance, body care, and anti-bacterial soap. In this way, it may introduce several products once to the visitor; unfortunately, it does not make strong impression to us. TBS has more incredible attraction than BBW because the visual appeal is organized and clear. Easy access is another reason to show TBS is better than BBW beside visual appeal. It accomplishes helping customers to find its products, if the website is organized. On TBS, there is a green scroll bar with white text on the top of the big picture. While the visitor places the mouse on any title of the green bar, it will scroll down with other subtitles. We can find the product quickly by selecting the subtitle on the scroll bar. On the other hand, BBW website does not provide a scrolling system. It has only a white bar with thin black text. When we want to find an item we have to click on the section, and then it will bring us to another page. On the second page it uses another setting by showing the small subjects on the vertical column on the left side. Moreover, there are the products’ brands (BBW sells different brands) by using several groups of subtitles under different titles on vertical column. For example, if I want to buy a lip gloss, I just click a button, “Lip gloss” under “Make Up” using the green scroll bar on the TBS homepage. However, I need to do more steps to find a lip gloss: firstly click the “Face & Hair”, secondly select a brand under “Makeup Brands”, then I will see some lip gloss on the third page. We might get bothered and unfocused when we go to too many pages to look for an item. The arrangement of BBW is more difficult for the visitor’s eyes to follow. If anyone is not the BBW’s coustomer, he will spend more time to figure out its complex setting. TBS is more successful by having more outstanding access, when it compares with BBW webpage. TBS website is more particular than BBW by providing good information. TBS and BBW carry many skin products. I have an experience of ordering an eye cream form BBW website. Indeed, it is easier if buying the item in

  13. Early 16 bars...........?

    Rate, hate, comment, criticize, etc.......I'm throwing around ideas for something to start my mixtape up with. This is one of the verse I thought might be good for it. I want to go home where the grass is green Where we sit in circles and just pass the weed I hate work, fax machines, I love rapping schemes I know what’ll happen’ll be, with you attacking me Let me give you a little information…don’t ask All my skill’s in chrome flask, I’m clown so laugh A f*ck up on the wrong path, you all know that I’m a kid from a cold past, I hate my dads old ass All my thoughts scribbled in a rhyme booklet Tonight at the Grammies all your lies took it Overpowering all of my mind’s book sense I thought I could carry both our lifes I couldn’t So I’m digging for a rhyme, of a different design Make you listen in rewind, as I’m picking in you mind As zippo’s zip by, how you gonna talk with both lips tied

  14. Who is a leading "enigmatologist" (10-letter phrase/name)? 10 points?

    the world's only academically accredited enigmatologist, __________, born on an Arabian horse farm in Crawfordsville, Indiana (1952). He's the current crossword editor of The New York Times, the puzzle master of NPR's Weekend Edition Sunday, and the author or editor of dozens of books. He sold his first puzzle to a magazine when he was 14 years old, and within a couple years, he was a regular contributor to puzzle publications. In college, he designed his own degree program in enigmatology, which he describes: 'Literally, it's the study of riddles, but at Indiana I defined it as the study of puzzles.' He drew himself up an undergraduate curriculum of classes in English, math, philosophy, journalism, and linguistics, and wrote a thesis on the history of American word puzzles before 1860. He went to law school, thinking he'd work for 10 years and earn a bunch of money so that he could pursue his avocation of puzzlemaking. But after graduating from law school, he skipped out on taking the bar exam and went straight into enigmatology, earning a living by creating puzzles for publications like Penny Press and Games magazines. In 1993, he became the crossword puzzle editor for The New York Times, only the fourth person to hold that position in the newspaper's history. He has made some changes to the Times puzzle page in his 16 years of editorship: The crossword puzzles now have constructor bylines (before the contributors weren't acknowledged), and the puzzles contain more references to contemporary pop culture (stuff like rock and roll and what's on television). Puzzles also now have more tricks and ambiguities, he said. He has also 'increased the slope of difficult further,' as he claims, between the daily puzzles so that Mondays are slightly easier than before he took over -- while Friday and Saturday crosswords are even harder than they used to be. He said that the idea is 'to have something for everyone, both beginners and veterans.' His all-time favorite crossword clue is 'It might turn into a different story,' with the answer 'SPIRALSTAIRCASE.' His favorite crossword puzzle is the one that was printed on Election Day 1996, designed by Jeremiah Farrell. The puzzle had two different correct solutions with the same set of clues. The clue whose answer formed one of the middle rows across read, 'Lead story in tomorrow's newspaper.' The answer seemed to be CLINTON ELECTED, but Jeremiah Farrell had carefully constructed ambiguity in all of the crossing clues, so that the answer to that middle-across clue could also be 'BOB DOLE ELECTED.' Either answer worked perfectly in the puzzle. The first downward crossing clue, for instance, was 'Black Halloween animal.' Either 'bat' or 'cat' would be correct, with the C for the start of CLINTON or the B for the start of BOB DOLE. Will Shortz later said, 'It was the most amazing crossword I've ever seen. As soon as it appeared, my telephone started ringing. Most people said, 'How dare you presume that Clinton will win!' And the people who filled in BOB DOLE thought we'd made a whopper of a mistake!' More than 30 years ago (in 1978), he founded the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament, an event he still directs. __________ and the Tournament were the subjects of a 2006 documentary by Patrick Creadon, called Wordplay. The film also featured a string of prominent puzzle-solvers, like Bill Clinton, Ken Burns, Jon Stewart, and the Indigo Girls. When asked why people are so drawn to puzzles, he once said, 'We're faced with puzzles every day in life. What's the fastest way to run some errands? What's the lowest price we can get on home repair? Most problems we're faced with, we just do the best we can -- we muddle through. We never know if it's the best solution or not. With a human-made puzzle, when you answer the challenge, you know you have a perfect solution. It's satisfying.'

  17. Sims 3 problem, please help.?

    I bought it a few days ago, i downloaded it fine... the menu screens and everything works smoothly, and designing characters works reasonably smoothly... but when i start playing its REALLY slow and after about 5 minutes (sometimes less) it shuts down, no warning nothing. the first few times this happened, a thing popped up saying something about ighx not responding (no idea :S), and then that stopped popping up instead a little yellow triangle with a exclamation mark in it was in the right hand side of the task bar (with the clock). But now nothing like that happens, no error message or anything that hints there's something wrong... i don't know whats going on or how to fix it, and i really want it play! =(. I don't know what details u'd need about my laptop but here is what i can find: Hp Pavilion dv2000 (GG176PA#ABG) Windows Vista Home Premium Intel(R) Core(TM) duo CPU T2350 @ 1.86GHz 1.87 GHz Memory (RAM): 1.00GB 32-bit Operating System Display adapters: Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express Chipset Family

  18. My USB flash drive (Jump Drive) is not working when I plug it into my computer.?

    My flash drives or more commonly known as jump drives won't work on my computer. Now I'm most certain that it's my computer's problem not my actual Flash Drive. I know this because it works just fine when I plug it into any computer at my school but not at my home computer. I've tried two various flash drives neither work but the computer does recognize them as being there. This is a recent problem and the Flash Drives WERE working just fine. Usually the way it would work is I'd insert the Flash Drive with is a small device that, when plugged into a USB port it acts as a separate drive that can hold information. I'd normally just insert the Flash Drive and then go to Start then My Computer and then I could see my C:/ Drive my D:/ Drive which is my back up drive and finally my E:/ Drive which is my CD/DVD drive. Now whenever my Flash Drive was plugged in I'd normally see a new drive in this section called the F:/ Drive and it'd usually either be called "Lexar" or something else because that was just the brand of Flash Drive it was but now whenever I plug it in the computer recognizes that there's something plugged in but all that happens is that a new little icon appears in what I think is called the "Task Bar" just left to the clock in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. It makes a ping and the new icon is a "Safely Remove Hardware" one. It's not recognizing it anymore and I need help on getting those precious files on that Flash Drive onto my computer and more files on my computer onto that Flash Drive. Please help. I don't have any clue on what I should do and any help at all would be very helpful please please please if you have any idea please leave a comment and as much detail as you can on the subject and I'd like to just know what is happening and how I can fix this. If it does help my computer was recently reformatted but this wasn't a problem until a few weeks after the reformat. I have a Windows XP Compaq Computer. It was designed for XP but Vista Compatible and was bought around the year 2006. It has just under 500 MB's a Ram. Roughly a 200GB hard drive and currently has a Vista Theme installed making it look as if it were Vista Made. (This is only a theme with Skins. It's not actually Vista it's XP only a Vista Look Alike). It has two USB ports in the front and two in the back if this helps in discovering the actual computer Model and such. Well I really hope that someone can help me please feel free to respond and I'd appreciate the help that I can get from any of you. Thanks again. And please be serious.
