If you are simply remodeling your home, it might be a good idea to replace the hinges, door jambs and hardware simultaneously. If this is for your new home, try to find designs sold at different stores and hardware centers. Once you have done this, you can make a decision on whether you want your home painted or not. Typically, in more dated times, a homeowner would pick a door that suited their house's millwork. However, things today are quite different.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks to <a href="http://blog.parentmap.com/?p=2005"><strong>ParentMap</strong></a> for alerting us to this: If you and your kids have plans this Saturday, break &#8216;em and get in on a recording session with Recess Monkey. The band is made up of three Seattle elementary school teachers who&#8217;ve been playing kid-friendly, pop music together since 2004. </p>
<p>They&#8217;re working on their fourth album, <em>The Final Funktier</em>, and need audience members to be part of four songs they&#8217;re recording for the disc.</p>
<p>To get in on the session at the University Child Development Center, 5062 9th Ave NE, Seattle, pre-order a copy of the new album for $25 on <a href="http://www.recessmonkeytown.com/shows.htm"><strong>the band&#8217;s site</strong></a>. There will be a limited number of tickets available at the door too.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yup, that&#8217;s right, not some city in Eastern Washington, we&#8217;re talking about the Everett on Washington&#8217;s west side. City officials there are considering <a href="http://www.heraldnet.com/article/20100208/NEWS01/702089894/-1/RSS01"><strong>allowing boutique wineries</strong></a> within the city limits, according to The Herald.</p>
<p>A proposal being discussed would require a tasting room or shop be attached to the wine making operation if it&#8217;s located downtown. At the same time, the city of Snohomish is trying to lure wineries to their downtown, where it&#8217;s already legal for vintners to set up shop.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://starbucksgossip.typepad.com/_/"><strong>Starbucks Gossip</strong></a> has spotted a couple of stories of note on Seattle&#8217;s coffee giant:</p>
<p>The first one is about a former 7-year employee at a Sherman, TX, store who says he was fired because managers <a href="http://starbucksgossip.typepad.com/_/2010/02/veteran-starbucks-employee-says-he-was-fired-because-managers-didnt-like-his-tattoos.html"><strong>didn&#8217;t like his tattoos</strong></a>. The first commenter: &#8220;Ummm, wouldn&#8217;t 43% of their workforce need to be fired if tattoos mattered?&#8221;</p>
<p>The second one is about a homeless guy who <a href="http://starbucksgossip.typepad.com/_/2010/02/update-homeless-man-pleads-guilty-to-throwing-hot-coffee-in-starbucks-baristas-face.html"><strong>threw coffee at a Starbucks employee</strong></a>, scalding her with first- and second-degree burns. It links to a story in suburban Chicago&#8217;s Daily Herald, a paper I worked for, ummm, more than a few years ago.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The groundhog Puxatawny Phil saw his shadow today, which in common folk lore means we&#8217;re supposed to get another six weeks of winter. But after the <a href="http://www.king5.com/news/local/Warmest-January-on-record-for-Seattle-83250627.html"><strong>warmest January</strong></a> on record, it&#8217;s feeling awfully hard to be concerned. </p>
<p>If you want to get a reminder of what winters&#8217; past have been like, check out the snowy photo on the <a href="http://blog.seattlepi.com/whidbey/archives/193092.asp?source=rss"><strong>Whidbey Island Life blog</strong></a>. </p>
<p>The post also includes a link to a book by the Genealogical Society of South Whidbey Island that will help you make sure the groundhog doesn&#8217;t see its shadow next year. It&#8217;s for a cookbook with a recipe entitled &#8220;How to Cook a Groundhog.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you remember where you were 24 years ago when the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded? Any of us who were around then saw the video and can remember our sense of shock. Now NASA is releasing a new amateur video of the disaster, which is a gripping, unfiltered view of the disaster.</p>
<p>I found out about it from Mike Davidson, who posted the clip on <a href="http://www.mikeindustries.com/feeder/?FeederAction=clicked&#038;feed=Articles+%28RSS2%29&#038;seed=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mikeindustries.com%2Fblog%2Farchive%2F2010%2F01%2Fnewly-released-video-of-the-space-shuttle-challenger-disaster&#038;seed_title=Shared%3A+Newly+released+video+of+the+space+shuttle+Challenger+disaster%3A%26%238230%3B"><strong>his blog</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Corydon optometrist Jack Moss, who took the video, can be heard saying to someone off camera: </p>
<p>&#8220;There she goes George. That&#8217;s brighter than usual.&#8221; Then the booster rockets spiral off and Moss realizes something is seriously wrong. &#8220;That&#8217;s trouble of some kind,&#8221; he says with dawning disbelief. </p>
<p>The video might never have been made public if Moss hadn&#8217;t thought to <a href="http://www.courier-journal.com/article/20100129/NEWS02/1290397/">donate it to NASA</a> shortly before he died last December.</p>
