I went with on-wall to avoid the hassle of installation and also b/c personally I found the in-ceiling or in-wall speakers cheesy, but that is just personal style preference. I have the orb audio ...

If you go with the linksys you can flash it with opensource firmware that will allow you to boost the signal some. It won't double the range or anything, but it could give you just a little extra ...

I agree that outdoor furniture is ridiculously hard to find if you want something that isn't cheap but is still reasonably priced. Check out this set from Crate and Barrel:

Check out west elm. Their line is pretty modern looking. Unfortunately the quality is less than great, but if you are looking for less expensive stuff it was about the only place we found that ha...

We have had Sonos for over a year now and love it. Yeah the remote could be a little prettier, but for overall experience I don't think you can beat it. And it is super simple. You don't have to...

I am assuming he is referring to an antennae to pick up over the air hd channels. Even if you don't have cable or satellite you can still get hd signals from many stations. If the tv is a recent ...

It is tough to really say much as I can't quite figure out the pictures and how they relate to the drawing. Any chance you could put up a series of pictures on flickr that shows more of the yard? ...

Can't wait to see how this progresses, especially the roofdeck. We started out with a similar barren roof like yours. Here are some photos of our almost finished roofdeck:

I think painting the walls and a planter or bench along the walls would help a lot as others have said. Maybe do large square planters in the back two corners and one half way between. Then put t...

Check out http://www.greengridroofs.com. Very similar idea. They have plastic trays and use mainly Sedum plans. They are primarily focused on large c...

Why recreate the wheel and force people to upload to multiple places. Most blog platforms have the ability to incorporate some type of code to show pictures from flickr. Most likely you can just ...
