Switch to Compact Fluorescent Bulbs to Save Money and Energy

The fluorescent bulbs of today are a far cry from those loudly buzzing, sterile white tubes seen in offices and hospitals in the 80’s. Now available in a wide range of styles and “color temperatures,” eco-friendly compact fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) are designed for the home and screw into many of the medium socket and candelabra lamps sold on our site. Use them in ceiling fixtures, sconces, chandeliers and other light fixtures.

Very simply put, CFLs generate light when electrons from the bulb’s ballast collide with mercury vapor throughout the bulb’s length, which in turn stimulates a phosphor coating on the inside of the glass. The result is a steady luminescence that is also incredibly energy-efficient, because more energy is spent on producing light (measured in lumens) and less is wasted on producing heat! This is why CFLs stay cooler to the touch than an incandescent bulb, and why a low-watt CFL brightens a room with the same intensity of a high watt incandescent bulb. Incandescent bulbs and their CFL equivalent are as follows:

60 Watts=13-18 Watts CFL

75 Watts=18-22 Watts CFL

100 Watts=23-28 Watts CFL

150 Watts=30-38 Watts CFL

But it gets even better! Because compact fluorescent lamps use about 66% less energy than incandescent bulbs for the same amount of light, you can save up to $45 dollars a year when you choose an 18 watt CFL over a 75 watt incandescent bulb. Within the first 500 hours of use, your bulb has made up for it’s initially higher price. What’s more, compact fluorescent bulbs last an average of 10 to 15 times longer than a standard filament bulb, putting an end to chronic bulb replacement and halting the surge of burnt out bulbs entering our landfills. And since CFL’s expend less energy, there is less demand on electric power plants that burn polluting fossil fuels. Amazingly, swapping out ONE incandescent bulb with a CFL will keep half a ton of CO2 out of the air for the CFL’s lifetime! You can make a positive impact on the environment simply by screwing in a CFL.

Once a CFL is spent, it’s legal to throw it in the trash; however, these energy-efficient bulbs do contain trace amounts of mercury vapor. If they are sent to an incinerator, this mercury could enter the atmosphere. Instead, collect your CFLs for your community household hazardous waste collection for treatment and recycling; if a bulb breaks, take care not to inhale the vapor and promptly wipe up pieces with a wet rag. Toss everything, including the rag, into a plastic bag for proper disposal. It’s important to note that the overall benefits of a CFL’s energy-saving operation far outweigh any risk trace amounts of mercury vapor in the bulb may pose to landfills.

Types of Tiffany Lamps

There are three different types of Tiffany Style Lamps, read on to learn what they are and what makes each one different.

A Tiffany Style lamp is a lamp that has been designed to look like or similar to the famous Tiffany Lamps. Many of these lamps use stained glass instead of the costly colored glass to create some of the same designs as the original Tiffany lamps. Basically a Tiffany style lamp is any lamp that looks similar too or uses a similar manufacturing style but is not an authentic Tiffany Lamp.

Tiffany Style Lamps

These are the lamps most commonly found in Wal-mart or other discount stores. They typically have some sort of a floral designed painted onto the back side of the glass. Some Tiffany style lamps will even have an authentic Tiffany design painted onto a solid glass lamp shade. These lamps look nice but can never compare to an authentic Tiffany Lamp. If both were set side by side even the worst amateur could tell them apart.

Tiffany Style Replicas

Tiffany style replicas are the middle ground of the Tiffany Style lamps. Many manufacturers of these lamps will use multiple pieces of stained glass but instead of using the copper foil method they will solder the pieces of glass together. This technique, though it looks similar to the copper foil method from a distance, is not nearly as durable. Where the copper formed around each piece of glass, encasing it – this method only runs in between each piece of glass. Within a few years the solder gives and pieces of glass can fall out.

A newly crafted Tiffany style replica could resemble a Tiffany lamp to the untrained eye. After a few years though the Tiffany lamp will continue to hold its shape, solder and glass. Not to mention over time stain peels off of glass, especially if the lamp is used often or is placed in direct sunlight. Whereas the colored glass of the Tiffany lamps will never fade.

Tiffany Lamp Replicas

A few of the Tiffany style lamp manufacturers make their lamps in similar means as the original Tiffany lamps. These lamps are usually marketed as Tiffany Replicas though. These manufacturers will purchase or make their own colored glass, cut it by hand and use as many of the original style tools as possible. Some of these companies even work on authentic lamp restoration, replacing any broken glass with modern matching glass.

Depending on your budget and style any one of these lamp styles could be perfect for you. If you want the beauty of an authentic Tiffany lamp but do not have a few million dollars to pay for one, your best bet is to go with a Tiffany Lamp Replica.

Tiffany lamps, as well as many other lighting decor for the home, can add beauty and style as well as provide light.

Communion service is at all hours, and the bread and wine are from the heart and marrow of Mother Earth. To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter… to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird’s nest or a wildflower in spring — these are some of the rewards of the simple life. The most precious things of life are near at hand, without money and without price. Each of you has the whole wealth of the universe at your very door. All that I ever had, and still have, may be yours by stretching forth your hand and taking it.”    

JOHN BURROUGHS –“One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: ‘To rise above little things.’”  

JOHN BURROUGHS –“Style transforms common quartz into an Egyptian pebble. We are apt to think of style as something external, that can be put on, something in and of itself. But it is not; it is in the inmost texture of the substance itself. Polish, choice words, faultless rhetoric, are only the accidents of style. Indeed, perfect workmanship is one thing; style, as the great writers have it, is quite another. It may, and often does, go with faulty workmanship. It is the choice of words in a fresh and vital way, so as to give us a vivid sense of a new spiritual force and personality In the best work the style is found and hidden in the matter.”    

JOHN BURROUGHS –“The difference between a precious stone and a common stone is not an essential difference — not a difference of substance — but of arrangement of the particles — the crystallisation. In substance, the charcoal and the diamond are one, but in form and effect, how widely they differ! The pearl contains nothing that is not found in the coarsest oyster-shell. Two men have the same thoughts; they use about the same words in expressing them; yet with one the product is real literature, with the other it is platitude. The difference is all in presentation; a finer and more compendious process has gone on in the one ease than in the other. The elements are better fused and knitted together; they are in some way heightened and intensified. Is not here a clue to what we mean by style? 

JOHN BURROUGHS –“The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive. The great opportunity is where you are.”   

JOHN BURROUGHS –“To learn something new; take the path you took yesterday.”         

JOHN CAGE –“I can’t understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I’m frightened of the old ones.”  

JOHN CARLISLE –“Help us to harness the wind, the water, the sun, and all the ready and renewable sources of power. Teach us to conserve, preserve, use wisely the blessed treasures of our wealth-stored earth. Help us to share your bounty, not waste it, or pervert it into peril for our children or our neighbours in other nations. You, who are life arid energy and blessing, teach us to revere and respect your tender world. Prayer of Thomas”                

JOHN CELES –“Today’s the ‘Festival of Lights’all o’er; A joyful day for minds and hearts and souls; And people throng the Temples to offer, Prayers, resolving to take better roles. And most of them are richly clad and clean, And eat such dainty foods and sweets with mirth; Whilst noisy crackers burst, their lights are seen, It seems to be a happy day on Earth! But are there not hearts woe-filled, very sad? Denied of laughter, smiles for days; Today’s the triumph of Good over bad; But what about the wastage in much ways? True joy is when you see someone else smile! True charity gives joy in Heav’nly style.”    

JOHN CHURTON COLLIS –“In prosperity, your friends know us; in adversity we know our friends.”

JOHN CLEESE –“I used to desire many many things, but now I have just one desire, and that’s to get rid of all my other desires.”

JOHN CLEESE –“If I can get you to laugh with me, you like me better, which makes you more open to my ideas. And if I can persuade you to laugh at the particular point I make, by laughing at it you acknowledge its truth.”   

JOHN CNURTON COLLINS –“In prosperity our friends know us in adversity we know our friends.”    

JOHN D BARROW –“There was no “before” the beginning of our universe, because once upon a time there was no time.”

JOHN D ROCKEFELLER –“Charity is injurious unless it helps the recipient to become independent of it.”  

JOHN D ROCKEFELLER –“Thrift is essential to well-ordered living.”    

JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER –“I had no ambition to make a fortune. Mere money-making has never been my goal. I bad an ambition to build.”   

JOHN DENNISON –“Spiritual justice is the right of every soul to set its own course through life, and the responsibility to allow others to do the same. Allowing everything to be as it is created. And to accept responsibility for our role in it all— through our perceptions, our choices, and the conditions within that shape our lives (whether within our conscious awareness or not).”     

JOHN DOBBIN –“In the time honoured  tradition of email, just ignore the question.”    

JOHN DONNE –“All ankind is of one Author, and is one volume; when one Man dies, one Chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated; God employees several translators; some pieces are translated by age; some by sickness, some by warre, some by justice, but God’s hand is in every translation, and his hand shall binde up all our scattered leaves again, for that libraries where every book shall lie open to one another. No man is an island in tire of itself, every man is a piece of the Continent, a part of the Maine; if a clod bee washed away by the Sea, Europe is less, as well as if a promontories were, as well as if a manner of thy friends or of thin own were any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.”

JOHN DONNE –“Any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind.”   

JOHN DONNE –“Love built on beauty, soon as beauty, dies.”      

JOHN DONNE –“No man is an island, entire of itself/ Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main/ If a clod be washed away by the sea.”

JOHN DONNE –“One short sleep past, we walk eternally, and death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die.”

JOHN DRINKWATER- “When you defile the pleasant stream, you massacre a million dream.”

JOHN DRYDEN- “Forgiveness to the injured doth belong. But they ne’er pardon who have done the wrong.”

JOHN DRYDEN –“To die is landing on some distant shore.”

JOHN F KENNEDY – “Forgive your enemies but never forget their manes.”

JOHN F KENNEDY – “I just received the following wire from my generous Daddy: “Dear Jack, Don’t buy a single vote more than necessary. I’ll be dammed if I’m going to pay for a landslide”.”

JOHN F KENNEDY – “Let us never negotiate out of fear to negotiate.”

JOHN F KENNEDY – “Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate.”

JOHN F KENNEDY – “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

JOHN F KENNEDY –“A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.”

JOHN F KENNEDY –“A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on. Ideas have endurance without death.”

JOHN F KENNEDY –“A nation can’t afford to be materially rich and spiritually poor.”    

JOHN F KENNEDY –“All of us do not have equal talent, but all of us should have an equal opportunity to develop our talents.”  

JOHN F KENNEDY –“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.”   

JOHN F KENNEDY –“Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future.”  

JOHN F KENNEDY –“Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.”

JOHN F KENNEDY –“If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.”    

JOHN F KENNEDY –“If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.”          

JOHN F KENNEDY –“In the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding on the back of the tiger ended up inside.” 

JOHN F KENNEDY –“It is our task in our time and in our generation, to hand down undiminished to those who come after us, as was handed down to us by those who went before, the natural wealth and beauty which is ours.” 

JOHN F KENNEDY –“Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate.”

JOHN F KENNEDY –“Let us resolve to be masters, not the victims, of our history, controlling our own destiny without giving way to blind suspicions and emotions.”

JOHN F KENNEDY –“One person can make a difference and every person should try.”   

JOHN F KENNEDY –“Our fears must never hold us back from pursuing our hopes.”  

JOHN F KENNEDY –“Peace is a daily a weekly a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures.”   

JOHN F KENNEDY –“The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment; but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy .”      

JOHN F KENNEDY –“The greater our knowledge increases the more our ignorance unfolds.”       

JOHN F KENNEDY –“The people of the world respect a nation that can see beyond its own image.”

JOHN F KENNEDY –“The rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.”      

JOHN F KENNEDY –“There are risks and cost to a program of action — but they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.”  

JOHN F KENNEDY –“We are coming to understand that the arts incarnate the creativity of a free people.”        

JOHN F KENNEDY –“We have the power to make this the best generation of mankind in the history of the world- or to make it the last.”  

JOHN F KENNEDY -“Without debate, without criticism, no administration and no country can succeed—and no republic can survive.”   

JOHN FLETCHER –“Now the lusty spring is seen; Golden, yellow, gaudy blue, Daintily invite the view.”

JOHN FOWLES –“Men see objects, women see the relationship between objects. Whether the objects need each other, love each other, match each other. It is an extra dimension of feeling we men are without and one that makes war abhorrent to all real women — and absurd.”  

JOHN GAY –“Alas! You know the cause too well; The salt is spilt, to me it fell; Then to contribute to my loss, My knife and fork were laid across; On Friday, too! The day I dread! Would I were safe at home in bed! Last night (I vow to Heaven ’tis true) Bounce from the fire a coffin flew. Next post some fatal news shall tell; God send my Cornish friends be well!”

JOHN GAY –“We only part to meet again. Change, as ye list, ye winds; my heart shall be the faithful compass that still points to thee.”

JOHN GIELGUD –“You make a new life for yourself when you are old.”    

JOHN GILLESPIE MAGEE, JR –“High Flight Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth/ Of sun-split I clouds, — and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence hovering there, I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung my eager craft through I footless halls of air… Up, up the long, delirious burning blue I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace where never lark, or ever eagle flew—And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.”

JOHN HEISMAN –“Gentlemen, it is better to have died a small boy than to jumble this football.”   

JOHN HOLT- “No use to shout at them to pay attention. If the situations, the materials, the problems before the child do not interest him, his attention will slip off to what does interest him, and no amount of exhortation of threats will bring it back.”

JOHN HUSTON –“Hollywood has always been a cage… a cage to catch our dreams.”     

JOHN ILHAN –“Don’t let anyone say you can’t do it.”   

JOHN IRVING –“It is hard work and great art to make life not so serious. Prostitutes know this too.”        

JOHN J INGALLS –“The golden rule has no place in a political campaigns”    

JOHN K BANGS –“Bring forth the raisins and the nuts — Tonight All-Hallows’ Spectre struts along the moonlit way.”      

JOHN K GALBRAITH –“Once the visitor was told rather repetitively that New York was the melting pot… This self-congratulation is now less often heard, since it was discovered some years ago that racial harmony depended unduly on the willingness of the blacks (and latterly the Puerto Ricans) to do for the other races the meanest jobs at the lowest wages and then to return to live by themselves in the worst slums.”   

JOHN KBANGS –“What fools indeed we morals are to lavish care upon a Car, with ne’er a bit of time to see about our own machinery!”

With common sense investment in advancing and speeding break- throughs, we can harness the natural world around us to light and power the world we live in with secure forms of energy at reasonable costs for a modern economy.”

JOHN L FLYNN –“In a metaphorical sense, the hero’s journey is also a journey of enlightenment, in which the individual breaks through the boundaries of self to discover his unique contribution to the world…. In modern society, where most old myths have lost their power, the cultural imperative to invent new stories and create new heroes has given rise to the sub-genre of fantastic literature known as ‘heroic fantasy’.”    

JOHN L GRAHAM- “The correct strategy for Americans negotiating with foreign clients is to ask questions…if an impasse is reached, doesn’t pressure. Suggest a recess or another meeting.”

Then you could have a motor fixed to your boat and go into deeper waters and catch more fish. That would bring you money to buy nylon nets, so more fish, more money. Soon you would have enough to buy two boats even a fleet of boats.

Art Nouveau: Decorating Principles for Your Home

If you are a fan of Alphonse Mucha or the many advertisements featuring scantily clad women on bicycles, you may find that Art Nouveau is the place to go for home design inspiration. Art Nouveau emerged in the 1890s as a counter to the heaviness of the Victorian style that abounded before that time. Art Nouveau was a less cluttered, lighter and freer form of expression in housing interiors.

Stained glass became popular as a design concept. An excellent example of this is the Tiffany Lamp, a lamp with a stained glass shade. Stained glass’ thicker lines and thinner detail is a common motif in Art Nouveau paintings, where a strong outline is complemented by detail within. While genuine Tiffany Lamps are very expensive, there are many companies creating lamps in this style for reasonable prices. Stained glass was popular in other areas, such as window decoration and in mirrors.

Colors are muted, but provide quite a variety of combinations: the sombre greens (sage, olive), mustard yellow and many shades of brown. Pair these colours with various shades of purple and peacock blue.

Browns can be found in the parquet and marquet floors that were in vogue at the time. These were mosaics of wood done in geometric (parquet) or natural shapes (marquet). Walls can be painted in the above colors or papered, preferably with stylized floral motifs that were in vogue. Anything with tendrils will probably integrate easily into the look. Popular motifs are peacocks, pansies, wisteria and any kind of trailing vine. Windows can be hung about with curtains featuring Art Nouveau motifs.

Furniture should be curvy and incorporate some of the stylized nature designs that Art Nouveauis famous for. Look for wood inlaid with designs. There are a lot of opportunities to remake furniture with Art Nouveau motifs and decoration. Consult Art Nouveaubooks and online pictures to find a pattern that you can reproduce on your Table, lamp or other accessory. Stylized fireplaces were popular at the time and are still reproduced today with floral motifs and whiplash lines.

Art can be in the form of poster prints. Many commercial posters produced in the era make beautiful and unusual decorations for the walls of your home. A vase or two of peacock feathers and, of course, plants and flowers scattered about the home will bring nature that much closer. Think exotic; Art Nouveau was in the period where people were greatly fascinated by ‘The Orient’ and far-off climes.

Art Nouveau Style:

long, curved, whiplash lines

stylized plants, especially flowers and vines

depictions of women with long, artistically flowing hair

inlaid wood, silver, semi-precious stones, glass

Sometimes it’s more fun to re-create your own interpretation of Art Nouveau than to restrict yourself to decorations that you know are ‘period’. A great Art Nouveau look can be created relatively easily and cheaply if you look for inexpensive replicas and reproductions, as well as using paint and stained glass to “art-nouveau” items. Look for that whiplash line and stylized florals and you’ll be on the right track.

Why You Should Use Copper Outdoor Lighting

The best way to add a rustic, antique look to the outdoor lights is to use copper outdoor lighting. This is the reason why many people use copper outdoor lighting. This choice gives a high quality and artistic view to the décor of a house.

The copper outdoor lights have very good natural resistive power against a wide range of different climates. Copper can never rot, rust or corrode. Hence, use of copper in outdoor lighting is the best choice. In early stages of weathering films of copper oxide are formed on the exposed copper. This copper oxide formed from the exposure to sunlight then turns into the films of cuprous and cupric sulfide. These films may range from black to brown depending upon the requirement of the environment. These films darken the copper surface appreciably and give a splendid hue to the lighting. The continued exposure then results in sulfide films turning to copper sulfate patina. The greenish patina is a natural protection against and reduces further corrosion of the copper outdoor lights.   

The natural range of colors of copper lightings can be used to the best of aesthetic advantage. The various stages of weathering give the copper outdoor lighting appliances a beautiful look. The patina formation takes nearly 5 to 7 years in industrial area while in rural area it may take 10 to 14 years. The weathering and lighting fixtures allow the lighting to blend in the surroundings. The various patterns of fixtures are designed to fit the surroundings. They are in forms of plants and flowers many times. This allows perfect amalgamation of modern day equipments with natural beauty.

Plastic and any other metal material is affected by sunlight. This causes brittleness in them which causes the material to crack or crumble. Copper, years after installation, is not embrittled by sunlight. The copper outdoor lightings are durable as well as beautiful outdoor lighting applications.

Copper has played a major role in the history of civilization. This uncompounded metal is in use for last 10, 000 years. There are ample evidence of the use of copper by great civilizations like Greece and Egypt. Cyprus was the main place where copper was mined and hence got the name ‘metal of Cyprus’.

Where to get tv Lamps in Mississauga, ON?

i need to get a replacement lamp (XL-2400) for my sony grand wega. Does anyone know a good location in Mississauga that sells tv lamps?

As for a local store, your local telephone or business directory should give you some options, if there are any in your city.

Otherwise, I found an abundance of Canadian suppliers by entering “TV LAMPS” ONTARIO CANADA in Google. Check those out; one may be near you, or you can always place an order. Good luck.
