Q

i'm not a fan. we're putting together a pretty luxe master; double sinks, bain air tub, two commodes and a large walk in shower. the shower has a rain head, massage head and a hand spray. no steam, no body sprays. maybe not so luxe after all? my inlaws have body sprays and yikes ...i HATE them.

What do you think about jets and rain shower?

There is a gauge that you can purchase at Home Depot, I just added a fitting for a total cost of about $15.00 and checked both inside my home at several points and outside. You just screw it onto a faucet and turn it on. I wanted to know the interior pressure for the thermostatic shower system install and outside for a future underground irrigation system. Depending on the distance of the faucet (where you attach the gauge) to the main water line it can change by maybe 5 psi, but that's not very significant. Personally I noticed a difference of about 2 psi. Since the purchase I lent out the gauge about half dozen times to friends so it's been useful. Maybe a neighbor has one you can borrow if your inclined to know what your pressure is. Water pressure is water pressure regardless of where it comes from. Sara_in_philly I never consider a question "dumb" as that's how we learn. nancyinmich Sorry I missed your post. I purchased the Pfister 8 1/4" thermostatic rain can and I believe it has self cleaning around (200) nozzles. Pfister has several different rain cans but I purchased this one as it had a good price point and was on sale on Amazon.com for around $50.00 for brushed nickel on a list price of around $200.00. It comes with the arm and flange. I liked it so much I purchased a couple more. It comes with a restrictor down to 1.5 gpm but I removed it on one shower and it does make a difference. The restrictor is simply a stainless steel screen. meanom Sorry I also missed your post. The friend in question had the Riobel thermostatic system and the difference was, the riobelbody sprays were designed in a way that the water flow didn't react well with change in water pressure, plus the nozzle's were designed more like a shower head rather than a rain can. As for the Riobel rain can, maybe it was the specific rain can they had but it only has 100 nozzle's and it didn't really feel like a true rain experience as the water flow was more forceful rather than a gentle stream of rain.. I guess you had to be there as I can't put it into words. In conclusion Pfister has two different sets of thermostatic systems (not including the shower panels which I stay away from) the 7.0 gpm with the volume and temperature in one valve and the 12 gpm with seperate volume and temperature valves, Each system has separate styles of body sprays rain cans etc. I installed my own system and went with the 12 gpm system since I like the body sprays, rain cans etc. I believe the key is to have a good volume control and set up where as you can adjust it so that you can have 12 drops of water from a rain can/body spray fall per minute up to thousands per minute depending on your wants, needs, and desires. If I can be personal for a sec.....I like to trickle down the ceiling mount rain can down to around 1/4 volume to run down my back to keep my body.........hot, while I lather up. Since the rain can is ceiling mount I don't have to turn around, I simply lean forward or back to direct the water flow from the ceiling. Ok, too much info..........let's move on...........

What do you think about people and dog all being sick?
Q

I wanted to give an update. Since this all happened, 2 weeks ago. I've been very strict with her and watching her like a hawk at the dog park. I gave her back the raw hides and she experienced no ill effects from that, that was a week ago. Then, just yesterday I decided it had been long enough to try giving her ONE of those Old Mother Hubbard treats, they are very small...like a puppy sized biscuit. Today she has diarrhea again! I think I found the culprit! Hopefully just the one tiny treat will just work its way through her system and she will be OK. I knew that I had just opened a brand new bag of these right before she got sick, she has been eating this same brand and variety for a couple years now. It was one of the only things she could eat without issues and she LOVED them. I don't know if they changed the recipe and added something that makes her bowels upset or if they are contaminated? I just contacted the company to explain what happened. I'll let you know how they handle this.

Do you think, and rethink, and think again about your choices?

I do think and rethink and reorganize and replant.... But the thing that made me laugh was your "with the world going to hell in a hand basket".... That's exactly why my gardens look so good this year, it's the only thing that I can control in these crazy times....

I didn't watch but I agree with the critic. Why would you put this show up against Good Wife, an excellent show, and Parenthood, another really good show? So I didn't watch it. Will catch it on Sunday , I guess and in reruns.

Well, it didn't record. Have recording priority with Good Wife and Parenthood. Ah well. Conflicts on Sunday too.

Welcome back, Glenda. I totally missed the show. I just started watching Harry's Law (with Kathy Bates) . It's my new facvorite show,

I really liked it, and think they will probably change the time slot to save it. The Good Wife is nearing the season finale, so that will give Body of Proof a chance to prove itself.

The medical thriller shows are my favorites (Bones is my absolute favorite), so I will definitely watch or DVR this one.

If you missed the show, you can probably watch it on the internet.

I haven't watched it yet, but I recorded it because I love Dana Delaney from her China Beach days. Speaking of China Beach, I wish that would be released on DVD. It seems like the longer they wait, the less chance there is that anybody will care about it.

Any nice shots of RI? I might watch if there are. After all, we watch "Hawaii Five-O" for the scenery. LOL

I thought it was just okay but I like Dana Delaney so I will probably watch it again.

Like so many shows now a days kind of silly. A real ME is not out in the field like that (in high heels no less!) and certainly not dressed that way. All that bare skin (not to mention in one scene no gloves) around blood and body fluids. I don't think so.
Just a silly show.
Sorry won't waste my time.

Hubs had absolutely no interest in watching, and since we're out of town and can't watch stuff we DVR'd, I went ahead and watched Body of Proof. I doubt that I will watch it again.

Much of it was just too far fetched for me. Yes, I understand that Dana Delaney's character is supposed to be exceedingly brilliant. But she was a neurosurgeon for many years, and has only been a medical examiner for FOUR years. Yet, we're supposed to believe that she is just about the best medical examiner that ever lived. Nope.

And the bit with her daughter. It made no sense to me that her ex-husband would refuse to allow her to see their daughter, just because she was so busy working all of the time before the accident. So she hasn't really seen or spent any time with her daughter for four years, yet she goes to see the kid on her 12th birthday, spends about 7 minutes with her -- just long enough to give the girl a key to her apartment -- and the girl instantly forgives her (not sure what there is to forgive) and leaves her mom a piece of birthday cake.

And only Dana Delaney's character has a clue as to what was really wrong (Lupus) with another patient yet the Chief Medical Examiner and Assistant Chief Medical Examiner are totally clueless.

Sorry. Awful.

It was sadly disappointing. I like Dana Delaney but this show was below par. I might watch it again in hope that it improves but it has a way to go. Her character was so annoyingly smug and egotistical that it made watching the show difficult.

Jeri Ryan was excellent and although she only had a few lines she made an impression. Sonja Sohn (from The Wire) is also a good actress and I hope the writers manage to give her more scenes in upcoming shows.

I know this was the pilot and they need to introduce storylines and characters but I have to agree with Lindsay that the part with the daughter didn't make much sense.
