On Wednesday June 3rd, 2009, another luxury home is scheduled for auction at the Courthouse in downtown

The 5-10 Minute Rule
No matter how beautifully we decorate our homes, if they're messy & disorganized, we can't appreciate or even see the beauty. However, I think of "messes" as reality, at least in my life. I have a toddler and a job, and hence, my house is almost always a mess. BUT in general, I'm okay with this mess, because it can be disposed of in 5 to 10 minutes, tops.So, I'll never pretend that I can have a "

Types of Timber Framing
There are two general types of timber frame systems, each having several variations: Common Purlin systems consisting of King Post, Queens Post (see modified Queen Post Truss below), and Hammer Beam frames for example, and Common Rafter systems such as Collar Tie, Principal Purlin, and Ridge Beam frames. There are many reasons to choose one frame type over the other and costs vary as well. Common

Problems Hair Loss
Every day, you lose about 50 to 100 hairs. You've seen them. They swirl down the drain in the tub or get stuck on the back of your sweater. Or, worst of all, one might get in your mouth.

It's the most common type of hair loss
