Do most people turn their porch light on EVERY night or not. Should I leave mine on just because it gets dark?

I already have the plans, building permit and financing ready to go, but I need a General Contractor who is sober, competent, honest and can start immediately. This is not a hypothetical situation - I need a builder.

Ladies: How does the way I decorated my Victorian apt sound?
Beige walls (not allowed to paint), with a white trim, and burgundy curtains, a plant hanging off a rod on top of the window looking above my television, cherry walnut furniture, a stitched rug with a large golden square etched in a burgundy like trim and also......

What color should my poster frames be? Can they be black? What places sell cheap frames that are gold colored?

And also I have a couch, what color cover should I put on it?

And lastly, my bathroom has powder blue walls with a light white trim. Is it ok if my bath rug and shower curtain are burgundy too?

I like modern style furniture. I dont like alot of color, just a clean empty look. I've read somewhere it was called "minimalist modern" or something like that. If you've ever seen MTV cribs, the one with Moby is a good idea for what Im going for.

Where are some good websites or books with these type of designs? Im having a hard time finding ways to hide things, etc... to get such a clean look.

Im sure a few of you know what Im talking about.

On a bookshelf in the library they have those things that keep the book from toppling over if there is an empty space on one side or the other. It just holds it up by tucking under the books, along with a wall to hold them up.

I'd like to search ebay, but cant think of the name. I've tried searching for "bookshelf stops" and "bookshelf holder" and cant find them. I'd feel kind of foolish calling up Barnes & Noble or the Library just to ask.

Any ideas?

The contractor came today and told me my floors are red pine and that I would have to go with the colonial maple stain. I asked can I have them stained a lighter color he said no. Is this true?

I think the look of stainless steel appliances makes a kitchen look like a garage or some industrial kitchen. I also find that granite looks like puke.

Am I the only person in the world who thinks this fad is going to be by the wayside like the avocado green, harvest gold and burnt sienna appliances of the 70s?
