DIY hot tub | Ask MetaFilter
Can a hot tub/ soaking tub be made from one of these ? I was interested in a portable Softub for my yard but thought a DIY plan might be a lot less expensive. Using the Rubbermaid tank with the Softub filter/heater would seem to work.
House Style | Ask MetaFilter
What style do we like for house accessories and furnishings? And what styles are there, for that matter? In selecting accesories and furnishings for our 50-year-old cape house, we’ve found ourselves needing to select small-scale accessories (like towel bars for the bathrooms, doorknobs for the downstairs rooms, and the like) and large scale (kitchen tables, couches, kitchen cabinets). Problem is, we don’t have an overarching “vision” of what our house will look like or what style will predominate, so we often end up selecting items that are pretty generic so that the items don’t clash with a style established later on down the line sometime.Liquidscapes is committed to designing and building fine quality pools and landscapes for the tri-state area.

Habitat for Humanity Kent County > ReStore
To gain greater perspective of the amount of waste the Habitat for Humanity of Kent County ReStore has diverted from landfills since opening four years ago, we challenged students in the Rockford High School Math Club with a brain teaser we all could relate to... How many times would the waste "fill up" Fifth Third Ball Park...where Rockford Math Teacher Bob Wells also doubles as an MC for fun and games during inning changes. In 2009 his students found-- "Based on 2,772,640 pounds and the estimated dimensions of Fifth Third Ball Park, if one were to simply stand on the brim of the stadium armed with an endless supply of styrofoam cups (think 'Hot Chocolate' cups), and tossed them one at a time into the Ball Park, he/she could fill up the entire stadium to the top of the structure 32 times over. "Doing this at a rate of one cup per second without stopping, it would take just short of 43 years to toss in as much waste as Habitat for Humanity has saved from area landfills."

Go is an ancient strategy game with simple rules and a profound degree of complexity. The beauty of Go is its combination of simplicity and complexity. On the one hand, go has only a handful of rules. Place stones, don’t get completely surrounded, control territory.

Bandai Home Somen Shop - Playgrounder
It’s a water slide for your noodles! The Bandai Home Somen Shop ($116) is modeled after the bamboo pipes that serve up nagashimen in rural Japan. A motor pumps water to the top of the slide where you drop in boiled somen noodles by the water wheel.( Editor’s Note: Here’s the latest guest post from our long-time reader and PeteHoekstra.com contributor, “Steve.” ) It’s just an hour-long drive from Pete Hoekstra’s hometown of Holland to Kalamazoo. But as the rural highway slides southeast through the state’s dope growing capital, Allegan County, the further Hoekstra gets from his element. No, not K Street.

Question: I have a crushing inability to write proper thank-you notes. Can you offer me some guidelines? –Helen
How to Write a Thank-You Note by Leslie Harpold - The Morning News
Yesterday was brutally cold and windy in New York City and although I generally tune out when people complain about being bored, I was. I admit it. Jacob and I take a walk somewhere, anywhere — seriously, I may or may not have used “Let’s go buy mama some bourbon!” as an excuse to leave the apartment one recent day — everyday. Even if it is cold; that’s what the snowsuit and hat and footmuff and knit blanket ( “We lost the baby!” ) are for, right?
