Technical Abstract: The objective of this study was to determine if Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) infection of stressed turkey poults would result in colonization of synovial tissues. Male turkey poults, housed in floor pens, were subjected to cold stress from d 4 through 12 and were exposed to an aerosol challenge of either the Scott A strain of Lm, Escherichia coli (Ec), or the combination (Lm+Ec). All challenged birds were housed in the same building, while non-challenged controls were housed in a separate, biosecure building. At seven wks, poults were given an immunosuppressive dose of dexamethasone (Dex) and the same bacterial challenges were added to their drinking water. One wk post-challenge 4-6 birds per group were weighed, necropsied, and knee synovial tissues were cultured for Lm using pre-enrichment in University of Vermont medium (UVM) and Fraser broth, isolation of Lm on Listeria selective agar plates, and confirmation using biochemical tests. LM was isolated from knee synovial tissue of 75% of cold stressed poults challenged with Dex+Ec+Lm, 43% of cold-stressed poults challenged with Dex+Ec alone, and 20% of cold stressed poults challenged with Dex+Lm alone. Lm was not isolated from non-cold stressed birds challenged with either Dex+Lm or Dex+Ec+Lm, but was isolated from 25% of non-cold stressed birds challenged with Dex+Ec. Lm was not isolated from synovial tissues of any of the non-challenged controls. There were no differences in body weight due to early cold stress, however Dex treatment itself and Dex + all bacterial challenges significantly decreased body weight at 8 wks. These data suggest that Lm colonization of turkey synovial tissue can be enhanced by early cold stress and by concurrent infection of Dex-treated poults with Ec.

Update: Noel has reached the summit! His fourth successful ascent to Everest. Amazing job, Noel!
Update: I just heard from Lynne Hanna this morning at 9:30 CST that the team has left for summit about 10 hours of climbing now to top.
This morning I received an email from Lynne Hanna regarding Spartan Founding Few's Noel Hanna's Everest ascent attempt. "All going well. Noel will leave high camp tonight 5.30 Irish time for summit …" she told me.
Today, and in just one day, Tibetan climbers completed the preparation of the ascent route. The rope is fixed up along the whole route to the summit and the way is open. The weather is also holding up, giving an excellent chance for a successful ascent and the wind is within allowable thresholds.
On the scheduled day for the planned ascent, it should not worsen. The whole team (8 members, 8 Sherpa's, and also 3 guides) are now in a camp at an altitude of 7,800 meters. On May 20, in the morning, they will go to the assault camp at 8,300 meters. And tomorrow, the whole team should go into the assault of Everest. All are doing well.
Keep Noel and his team in your thoughts on such a momentous and courageous attempt on Everest!

Even though many cattlemen are weathering a hard grazing year and higher feed costs, cow condition is still pivotal at calving.
"Putting a limit on cow feeding, in terms of energy and protein, will not reduce calving problems or yield a smaller calf," says Ki Fanning, a nutritionist with Great Plains Consulting in Eagle, Neb. "However, it will result in a calf with less vigor and may result in a cow that does not breed as soon."
"I constantly get questions about whether a high level of nutrition will lead to increased dystocia in heifers," says Dan Goehl, a Canton, Mo., veterinarian. "Any increase in calf size, which will be slight, is offset by increased viability of the heifer and the calf."
At calving, cows should have a body condition score of 6, Fanning says. This ensures that the cow is able to maintain herself, deliver a healthy calf and milk that calf until it's weaned. A cow's body condition at calving also affects conception rates and how soon a cow returns to estrus.
"It is vital that we get cows bred back in a timely manner, which is directly correlated to body condition score at calving," Goehl says. "Feed and supplement choices need to be budgeted for this time period."
Calf considerations. "The drought conditions that we've been dealing with for the last 12 months or longer can also affect a cow's colostrum quality," says Jeremy Powell, a veterinarian and associate professor of animal science at the University of Arkansas.
"The cow's colostrum is composed mainly of antibodies, produced by the white blood cells. These antibodies are made up of protein. So, if she has been dealing with inadequate nutrition due to drought conditions, her colostrum quality could be negatively affected and might put the calf at higher risk for diseases," he says.
That's why precalving vaccinations are so important. "The cow is going to build antibodies only to what she's been vaccinated for or naturally exposed to," Powell adds.
"Typically, mature cows will have higher colostrum quality than first-calf heifers," he says. "That's because heifers have been vaccinated only once or twice and haven't developed the immunity that a mature cow has."
Before calving starts, remember the basic needs of a calf. Watch newborns closely to make sure they are in good health and active. Calves should be lying in a sternal position, on their chest, about 15 minutes after birth, and up and standing within an hour.
"It's most important that the calf gets an adequate amount of colostrum, ideally from the cow or an over-the-counter colostrum mix," Powell says.
Beef calves need at least 2 qt. of colostrum or more, depending on the their size. If colostrum must be manually fed, Powell advises feeding 1 qt., waiting 30 to 40 minutes and then feeding another quart, so the calf's intestinal tract is not overwhelmed.
"While you are doing that, dip the navel with a disinfectant to prevent any disease entry," Powell says.

Today is Saturday.
Theoretically people have more free time on weekends and can do some pre-cooking for Thanksgiving. I'm going to assume that you have more free-time this weekend. If you don't, go ahead and read through this email and the schedule this weekend's assignment on your calendar for later this week.
This Weekend's Assignment: Today we're going to get ready to make pies. Pies can be baked several days before Thanksgiving, and the pie crusts can be made weeks to months before that. We don't have months, but we can go ahead and make the dough for pie crust.
Resources For Making Gluten Free Pie:
Making gluten free pie crusts takes all of 15 minutes. Despite what you may have heard (or experienced) pie crust dough is pretty easy to make. However, it can be a bit intimidating if you're making it for the first time.
If you'd like a step-by-step photo and HD video tutorial, pie crust recipes, and all sorts of other helpful information, then you can . It's free! And it includes recipes, videos, step-by=step photos, and interesting articles that will make this much less intimidating.
I'm also hosting several free Gluten Free Pie Master Classes between now and Thanksgiving. See the full details here.

But you can't always get these things finished that swiftly because there are actually quite a few different things involved other than splitting up. There is child custody to think about, credit card debt that you might have together, child support issues, and property that also need to be divided. This makes obtaining a divorce a somewhat difficult process and one that needs to be handled with the best of care and contemplation so every person gets what they need in the closing stages.

But it doesn't usually come to an end until you pass on so try and recognize just how crucial this can be and contact at least one of the divorce lawyers in your area today.
Not a soul here's denying that a noble divorce lawyer is likely to be a bit on the pricey side. But don't consider that simply because it's a little bit expensive that each one of these attorneys cost an arm and then a leg to act for you. Those which might be more expensive cost more since they've built up a reputation as somebody who's able to being victoriousat these cases and being paid the absolute best offers for his or her client greater than most of the other attorneys in their field.

Paddling event raises funds, spirits
Three-year-old Kindred Worrell, the youngest participant in the 19th Annual Varina Lions Canoe-a-thon, didn't have much choice when it came to attending. But she enjoyed the 10-mile cruise, looking at kayaks and fishing a feather out of the James, just the same.
Her father, Sgt. Timothy Worrell of the Virginia Dept. of Game and Inland Fisheries, visited Kindred frequently along the way as he escorted several dozen canoes and kayaks from Rocketts Landing to Osborne Landing.
And Kindred's mother, Jennifer, pronounced the journey a relaxing and much-needed episode of "tornado therapy" for herself and fellow teacher Angela Paust.
Paust teaches sixth grade at Page Middle School in Gloucester County and Jennifer Worrell is a reading specialist. On April 16, a tornado destroyed roughly half the school building, and Page teachers and students had to transfer to another county middle school. To accommodate the double load, home students and faculty now attend a morning shift, and the contingent from Page attends from 1 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
In addition to the stress of being uprooted and adapting to the new schedule, Page faculty are also coping with reams of lost and destroyed records.
"My dad found a GED test in his yard," said Worrell, "four miles away [from the school]. And letters to the chorus teacher were found two counties over in Deltaville."
All of which made a leisurely paddle down the James sound pretty appealing to Worrell and Paust when they learned of the canoe-a-thon through Worrell's husband.
Pick your pace
Unlike the two teachers, Will Harlan has been coming to the canoe-a-thon for years. His neighbor, Buz Snyder, is the event's founder and a long-time activist in the sponsoring organization, the Varina Lions Club.
Asked to name his most memorable canoe-a-thon, Harlan said it would have to be his first, when he was still a new member of the Lions Club.
Assured by Snyder that the event was not a race, Harlan took his two young sons, whose ages he estimated at seven and ten.
"I had never paddled flat water before," Harlan recalled, anticipating a relaxing cruise with his boys. "We brought coolers, fishing rods, radios, and lots of food.
But from the moment Snyder and his son hit the water, said Harlan, they never stopped paddling.
"What do you mean, 'It's not a race?' he asked Snyder after his loaded-down boat finally arrived at the take-out and picnic.
The following year, said Harlan, he and his sons arrived in a stripped-down boat. "And we started getting competitive!"
That's the beauty of the canoe-a-thon, say its fans.
Paddlers can challenge themselves to try and beat their time from earlier years, challenge family members or buddies in a friendly wager, or even vie to be the first canoeist or kayaker to finish.
Or they can sit back and enjoy nature, the river, wildlife, and all the history floating by.
River's heritage
"Views from the river have not changed that much in over 400 years," pointed out Stephen Winks, the canoe-a-thon sponsorship chairman.
Noting that the 17th century Wilton Farm in Varina was called "World's End," because there was no known European habitation beyond that point, he added, "You can not only see the unchanged views . . . but imagine the history of native Americans, and at Wilton, with it literally being the end of the world as we knew it."
Both the put-in and take-out sites are historic spots, said Winks. Rocketts Landing was the largest seaport in the country prior to the advent of railroads, and Thomas Jefferson's grandfather and namesake lived at the town of Osborne, across from Osborne Landing, where he operated a ferry.
Just half a mile from Osborne Landing also lies Snyder's residence of Aarrahahatteck.
"It is the only named spot on Captain John Smith's 1610 map of Virginia," said Winks, "other than James Towne."
Although the canoe-a-thon may have originally been organized as a fun club activity and fundraiser -- proceeds contribute to community scholarships, middle school reading programs, after-school YMCA programs, and assistance for the sight and hearing impaired -- Winks views it also as a means of raising awareness about Varina.
Most people think of Varina as nothing more than a sleepy rural suburb of Richmond, said Winks. The canoe-a-thon gives organizers a chance to promote the community's beauty, as well as its "extraordinary history [as the] second oldest spot in North America, in the most historic city in North America: Richmond, Va."
'Family reunion'
In addition to the opportunity to get close to nature and history, the canoe-a-thon also provides what Harlan calls a "family reunion" atmosphere. Snyder returns with sons and grandchildren every year, and Harlan's two boys -- now in their twenties -- come back to town annually for the event.
For Dave Whyte, who paddled with Snyder because his usual partner couldn't make it, the event was a chance to spend a few hours with a role model and good friend.
"I keep coming back every year because Buz is like a father to me," said Whyte.
Whyte met Snyder in 1994 through his friend Billy Waldecker, who is a great nephew of Snyder's wife, Nelda. "Billy and I were big bass fishing nuts," said Whyte, "so naturally Buz's pond was a great place to visit."
In return for the chance to fish at Arrahatteck, Whyte would help out with tasks such as clearing brush or repairing the dock. Eventually, Whyte began attending the Waldecker family reunion each July -- a tradition he has continued since he married and had children.
"Over the years, Buz and Nelda fell in love with my family and vice versa, and we feel like part of their extended family," he said. "Arrahatteck is a place that my kids have grown up with and our memories there are very fond."
Since his own father's death in 2007, Whyte said Snyder's role in his life has taken on an even more special significance.
"I have great respect and admiration for Buz," he said. "[He is] someone I can model myself after in terms of attitude and integrity.
"It was an honor to paddle with him for the first time this year."
No tornadoes needed
As canoe-a-thon participants reached the take-out location at Osborne Landing and gathered for the barbecue lunch, it was clear that even the prospect of a few sore muscles would not deter anyone from returning the following year.
One woman, climbing stiffly from her canoe, managed a smile as she groaned, "I don't think I'll do this tomorrow, though."
Another woman, who seemed to take perverse pride in finishing last -- even with a helpful tow from the "sag wagon" boat -- showed off several treasures she had found along the journey.
"Look at this burly piece of driftwood!" she exclaimed, adding, "There were too many interesting things to see [to paddle fast]."
On the bus ride back to Rocketts Landing to pick up cars, Angela Paust was already nostalgic as she reminisced, "It was so nice to be out there on the river."
Her fellow teacher, Worrell, confirmed that it won't take a tornado to get them to another canoe-a-thon.
"We'll be back next year," said Worrell. "It was awesome."

A former Minot fire chief has been convicted of gross sexual imposition against a minor in a case involving a 12-year-old girl.
The Minot Daily News reports (http://bit.ly/RMLL0L) that 77-year-old Duwayne Daniel Ward was sentenced to five years in prison, with most suspended in favor of probation. Ward will serve a total of 6 months in prison and is ordered to register as a sex offender and have no contact with the victim.
According to police records, Ward was alone with the girl, who was known to him, in his southwest Minot home in October when the incident occurred.
Ward was the Minot fire chief for more than 16 years, beginning his tenure as chief in 1981 after spending more than two decades with the department. He retired in 1998.

Derek King's Father Fights To Strengthen Drunk Driving Laws in Washington
In his home overlooking Puget Sound in Federal Way, Randall King walks us through his kitchen, showing us the pots and pans and knife set his son used to cook. Cooking was Derek's passion. He won a culinary competition just a week before he was killed.
"There's just a void in your heart and in your mind. I still can't even go into my son's room. I can't even touch his phone. I'm trying to get pictures off his phone and I can't even do that," says Randall.
What Randall King has been able to do is face Alexander Peder in court. He is the accused drunk driver who slammed into the car Derek was riding in on I-5 on June 9th. Derek and his friend Nick Hodgins were killed in the crash. The driver, Anthony Beaver, survived.
"It's really hard to see him. It's really hard to face the person that killed your son," says Randall.
A focus for Randall King now is fighting to toughen DUI laws and prosecution in our state. He is also upset that the state's wrongful death statute doesn't apply to his son because Derek was 18 years-old, so King says Peder does not have to pay monetary damages to his parents.
"They're telling me he'll probably get off with four to seven years for killing two teenagers which is just astounding," says King. "We can't even drive past that spot. I have a hotel in Bellevue and if I go I have to get off I-5 and take the side streets and get back on I-5 to get home. I can't do it and Anthony who survived the crash he can't either."
It's also hard for Randall, his wife and older son to enjoy the summer together. So many things bring back a flood of memories. Like recently when they went out on their boat. Derek loved being on the water and wake boarding in particular.
"That was a trigger, crabbing and fishing is a trigger. Cooking, I have a hard time cooking now and that's because he and I cooked together a lot," says King.
That's what Derek would be doing right now if he were alive. He was supposed to go to Chicago on June 20th to cook at a restaurant in Chicago. His dad can only hope in some way, his son is still doing what he loves.
"I want him home but I know he's up there cooking with God so it has to be a better place."
Randall King has started a culinary scholarship in his son's name. The driver of the car, Anthony Beaver, was also a culinary student with Derek. Randall says he actually gave him a job cooking at a restaurant at one of the hotels he manages in SeaTac.
Tuesday on Q13 FOX News at 10 watch Randall King's emotional interview and hear how he is working right now to strengthen DUI laws in Washington.Copyright © 2014, The Morning Call

Senator Heidi Heitkamp says she does not support the resolution before the U.S. Senate to engage Military action in Syria.
Heitkamp along with West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin are working on an alternative proposal.
The proposal would have the United States give the Assad government 45 days to begin turning over their chemical weapons and sign the Chemical Weapons Convention.
Heitkamp says the use of chemical weapons is not only a crime against the people of Syria, but also against humanity.
"The concern I have is we're given one option, here's your resolution take it or leave it and I don't think there's ever one option and I think that we need to understand that the use of sarin gas is a very very serious event, it's a critical event and we as an international community need to respond to that when 1400 citizens including children are killed," Senator Heidi Heitkamp said.
Heitkamp says the U.S. has not adequately engaged the international community and has not exhausted all efforts before taking direct military action.

#22 - 42anderson's Love, Eat, Party
Name: 42anderson
Location: Boston, MA
Size & Type: 520 square feet One Bedroom
Favorite resource: Dwell Magazine
Pitch: The challenge of this apartment was to provide enough space for our passion for cooking lots of good food and having lots of good friends over to eat it. First, was a complete gut renovation of the kitchen to provide counter space for two to work...
Pitch Cont'd: Second was reduce the living area to accommodate a large dining table and create flow between the two. The decor is a mix of our tastes, a modern attitude towards color and treasures from Italy.
Your favorite element: Our favorite element by far is the washer/dryer combo built into the kitchen, 110V and no vent. Herb garden is a close second.
111 Comments
I love it...I have a passion for cooking as well and my friends most hang out in the kitchen too, but my kitchen is nothing close to yours... this is just beautifulllll
I hope this got entered into the smallest coolest kitchen as well.
I agree with the above.. you definitely should've entered the kitchen contest. That is the exact green color that I've been lusting over for MY Kitchen. Your space is so colorful, cute and cozy (3 Cs!!) without compromising functionality. I so dig this!
I don't think I've ever seen an apartment this size where someone managed to carve out a space to eat in the kitchen with a window seat and mini-garden and also find room for a dining room. Great use of space!
I love it! It looks so inviting and livable. One of my favorites, so far.
I love the kitchen, but any time I see red and yellow as the main colors in a space, I automatically associate it with McDonald's. :(
Love the colors and the flow of the space. Well done.
Very cozy space. Great little kitchen. The smaller upper cabinets were such a great idea. So many people go with standard 40ish" upper cabinets in small kitchens and they just dominate the whole scene. Your's are proportionate to the size of your kitchen and you can show off that brick.
I love the fact that you have a separate dining area.
Rich and eclectic. I love that so many kithcen spaces incorporate greenery into the design concept. Plants make a space feel so fresh and inviting.
One of my favs thus far!
Wow. Love the bistro seating and the fact that the kitchen looks functional despite being tiny.
Wow! Adorable and cozy! LOVE the green wainscoting in the kitchen, this space is an inspiration! I hope you make it to the finals so we can see more pics!
Well, I'm glad I've finally figured out how to hang plants in my window and hide the street outside!! What a great idea....can I ask what your using to hold them up?
Love the living room too....
I lived in Boston for years and I was always able to find wonderful apartments, that were affordable and had a lot of character. Don't miss the city but miss the spaces.
Anyway, this is the winner. So much personality, it looks livable and comfortable. Well thought out and the use of space in the kitchen is right on.
I love it! I want to move in.
This is great -- love the kitchen, love the colors, love the breakfast nook -- what a wonderful place for living and entertaining. While not "my taste" per se -- I could plop right down and live there quite happily -- a true testament to a job well done!!!
This is amazing - I want to live here.
Damn. This is the first entry so far where I am consumed with total jealousy. Great example of an entry where the owner clearly has the means to not only own but also afford to do a renovation, but the end product doesn't come off as overly showy and managed to feel quite homey.
Proof that you don't need to hide everything in order to creatively organize your household. That kitchen washer/dryer is awesome. As is the herb garden - where did you the pot mounts?
Very nice use of color and whites, esp. that fun yellow in the dining area. And you managed to squeeze a dining area and a living area and not have it feel cramped. I even I spy a TV that managed to be functionally accessible to the living room sofa while managing to stay safely out of the way and ancillary to the conversation space.
Adorable apartment, wonderful kitchen. I agree about the McDonald's paint job, but other than that, great job!
This is fantastic and you did a great job of showing most of the apartment in only 3 photos.
I absolutely adore it!
And I too would love some more information on your plant-window-apparatus.
P.S. I'd also add - this space is totally NOT my style at all, but I totally love it nonetheless.
I knew this would be one that Dave liked.
I like it too and, though but my taste tends to the sleeker and more minimalist, I cannot fault this at all.
Great use of space, imaginative remodel, and a strong overall look to it.
A great entry...this one looks like home, not just a house with really cool expensive furniture (not that I would mind...). Perhaps a requirement for the winner?
I posted that before I saw your last comment Dave.
Must admit, can't see what you like so much in the others that you prefer. I thought that this would be the one.
@jamie pup - Ha! Touche, touche. Am I that transparent? I guess so - I freely admit, I have strongly held opinions.
That said, like you, my personal style runs to the more sleek/minimalist/modernist, but I also can't find fault with this.
I guess what attracts me to this contest and the general philosophy behind AT is the idea of "house" vs. "home" (in apartment form, obviously.) When I leaf through the various shelter porn mags like Dwell, Architecture Digest, Metropolitan Home, etc., I generally see lots of aesthetically beautiful houses, but not very many homes. I can appreciate them as I would a painting in a museum - from a removed distance, appreciating the finer aesthetic qualities of the design. What I can't see, is me living in them, propping my feet up and having a cold drink after a long day at work and catching the highlights on SportsCenter.
I don't think this means a space needs to be of the "Organic/Contemporary Eclectic" mold - you can have modern and still feel like a home. David and Im's OneSpace was clearly a modernist "machine for living" concept, but it still captured the essence of a home.
I'm hoping one of the reamaining to be revealed entrants manages to combine the "sleek and minimal" with a home. Although not an entry, "Uri's Monochrome" from today accomplishes that homeinees inside of a New York Loft Industrial Chic style.
@jamie pup - Yes, so far this is the one. The other ones I preferred I liked as, in the context of what had been posted so far, I preferred them - even with their imperfections - to the more polished/finished but not home-y entries that I did not like.
Could you also mention the brand and model of your washer...
(Love the apartment!)
Thank you!
awesome... by far the best I've seen.. so rich and fun!
great apt.
my favorite thus far, I adore it.
My fave!
Ditto on the great use of space and the how'd you rig up those plants? This is making me miss all the brick on the East Coast!
Where is the FRIG?!
@katrina - Lower left, you can see the white front of the FRIG in the second photo. See the floor plan - its labeled REF.
The refrigerator is kind of diagonal to the washer/dryer on the floorplan. Looks like it is kind of recessed into the wall in the 2nd photo.
WOW! Color, color, and more color... so tastefully done. As others have said, this apartment truly feels like a home.
I love it!
The kitchen is amazing, and that little seating nook looks so cozy, but still modern and stylish. I love the plants in the window. And the yellow wall against the exposed brick--awesome!
As the contest goes on, it's getting harder and harder to pick favorites, but this one is for sure one of them.
Wow, love it! Love how you made that "french bistro" thing while not over doing it.
I love it and it makes me realize - we do have a AT contingency here in Boston. I live in Fenway and was too busy in the hospital to enter the contest this year. Where do you live?
Gorgeous! The kitchen is to die for. I love the little bench and pillows.
I'm labeling it as insta-finalist.
That said, I'll concentrate on the "minuses" of the place.
1) I would reverse the dining and living groups for convenience of access from the kitchen. As it is it could only be justified, in my opinion, if the owners had a great view from the windows in front of the bbuilding and they wanted the diners to have the advantage of it. But - the dining is usually happens at the evening, and isn't the purpose of having people over is to have a mutual lively conversation rather than enjoy the views? So those would be my arguments against it. Naturally, the owners might have their own, unknown to me, considerations.
2) There is no coat closet/hanger/mirror/separated foyer area created at the entrance.
3) Kitchen island looks deeper than 2'-0", which looks like either there is a partial height partition inside, or there is at least 1"-0"d wasted space on the "breakfast" side of the counter. I'd make additional cabinets w/doors there, for dishes storage, or a cooking bookcase.
4) The nook is a great idea; will be even better if the table was square with possibility to unfold into rectangular: then you could use the nook for informal meals when you only have 1-2 friends over.
Oh, and the another, insignificant but mildly annoying matter: on the plan your armchairs should be rotated 180deg; as drawn they are facing the dining table instead the sofa.
Based on the floorplan, my first thought was also to reverse the living and dining areas. However, the (present) dining area is several feet narrower than the space that holds the living room furniture. Also, I suspect that they eat most of their family meals at the bistro table.
I checked, DS: no, not really several feet, based on how furniture actually looks vs. the plan. The chairs are definitely of a different and smaller footprint. Also, if you count the floor boards, there are 4 of them between the chair and the bedroom partition, and they are at least of 6" each, so it must be minimum of 2" for passage. And there is a gap between the brick wall and the other chair, of what I estimate to be at least 1'-0", so there you have it - your 3' passage if you shuffle the chairs to the wall, wich is plenty.
True, they probably use the bistro table for their regular meals. But isn't it nice to be able to minimise going back and forth with the dishes when you have company for dinner? The owners did say they entertain a lot.
Sorry, I meant "there must be minimum of 2'-0" for passage", counting the floorboards. (not 2")
No, no, leave the big dining table where it is! First, the living room furniture would look more cramped there, even if the space technically was big enough.
Second, having the big dining table at the other end of the apartment gives hosts much better control over the flow of a larger party. Not only is a formal dinner peacefully removed from the bustle of the kitchen, but if they're having a cocktail party, there can be food in the kitchen and food on the big table, and then people will flow back and forth, actually using the central seating area instead of congregating around the artichoke dip.
This is my favorite entry so far. I love the clean lines and thoughtful layout. Well done!
Really lovely. Where did you get the kitchen rack/rail system?
The kitchen racks & rails look like IKEA Grundtal.
Just seeing that shot of the eating area in the kitchen made my whole day. What a wonderful use of color and light! My favorite apartment so far.
I agree with wende in phoenix about leaving the dining table where it is for the sake of flow. Also, when there is not a party in progress, the owners are probably either in the kitchen or the living room, and they want to be able to converse with one another, etc. If you swap the dining and living areas, they'd be shouting across the apartment. Nice to keep the energy clustered together.
Love that green in the kitchen, the window seat, the wood floors and exposed brick. Very homey. I bet these are relaxed, affable people. I'm personally not so keen on that particular red and yellow, but you have to go with whatever delights your own eye.
I really like your kitchen counter? What kind of tile is it? What about the grout and trim around the edges?
I like the dining furniture where it is also. This is my favorite apartment so far.
There's simply no reason to comment further. It's appealing in every sense possible!
It's a wonderful, homey place--great kitchen. I wish there was a shot of your bedroom. I used to live around the corner from your place 25 years ago, you live in such a nice neighborhood.
Adorable! The kitchen is a bit cluttery (particularly above the cabinets) but you don't have a lot of storage, so I think that's understandable. The green is lovely, and so is the window seat.
Kudos! Love the layout, the colors, the scale. Yay!
I want to know more about those floating plants in the window...
What make is your washer/dryer combo? Are you happy with it?
this is gorgeous! i want to see the bedroom! also, where did you get those planters- yes floating plants- that sit high on the window? I want them!
Lovely, warm, organized, efficient, beautifully photographed, cozy, colorful, welcoming.
But low on innovation, which keeps it from being an Insta to me.
But you would have to PRY me out of that breakfast nook window seat during the winter!!!
That kitchen is the epitome of cozy to me ... wish it was mine ;-)
LUV IT! The red and yellow is fabulous. I want a washer dryer too :(
Wonderful kitchen. Very inspiring. Good luck. Lovely.
Completely awesome. Wish we could see the bedroom too.
Love love love it.
P(too) you'd have to fight me for the window seat, and it would be ugly.
I just want to know the name of the green in the kitchen, pretty please?
Love what you have done with the kitchen, great work!
Lovely , lovely place! The bench and windowgarden in the kitchen are gorgeous! Very cozy.
absolutely gorgeous!!!.
my favorite so far i think.
as someone else asked...what are you using to hang up the plants? i would love something that can hang plants in the window, not just a stand.
Reversing the living room and dining room locations would be a horrible mistake.
Right now, as you enter the apt., you are welcomed by comfortable seats in the living room. While your hosts are cooking in the nearby kitchen, you can sit at the bistro table or within talking distance in the living room. If the dining room were there instead, it would be much more unfortable for guests to have to sit at a dining table while talking to the hosts and waiting for their meal.
The dining room is perfect where it is by the window. I don't see any problem in carrying on a conversation during dinner while enjoying a nice view out the window. After all, most restaurant diners request a window table with a view (at least I do whenever possible).
Also, I totally agree that having the dining room where it is by the window promotes the best party circulation.
This is a beautiful apt. It is perfectly put together.
I LOVE IT!! - to echo sentiments above this is one of the few apartments that looks like a HOME - its welcoming and gorgeous - I could move right in (as long as you left your gree le creuset!!)
GREEN le creuset - damn autonomous fingers!
where is your dining room light fixture from?
What are examples of the type of innovations you seek in an insta-finalist?
Something about plant shelves in a window just makes me happy :-)
Good question! Something like the raised-on-storage bed nook of Jawrite's entry, or an open plan studio where a bed is successfully addressed. That, or something aesthetically innovative, which is much harder to define.
I want something a little less conservative to address the "Coolest" part of the contest criteria (but that's just what I'm looking for).
That said, this is is undoubtedly lovely. The kitchen layout comes pretty close to innovative, I'll give you that.
And like many, I could picture myself here (although it is heavier on open storage than I could deal with, and a little broken up by color than I think benefits a smaller home).
But it's all highly personal, granted.
And hey, Dave, where are the family photos here? I must have missed them.
Very nice, and realistic for a change.
Tatyana -- Your advice to reverse the dining and living areas doesn't account for the narrowness of the dining area.
is that a combo washer/dryer? i would love to know how you like it.
This really strikes a balance between homey and stylish for most everyone. It looks fresh, colorful and comforting like a beautiful bowl of apples. Tell us about that little washer dryer combo in the kitchen. Love the window seat and the plant shelf. The whole apartment radiates hospitality.
kristine: asked and answered.
Sometimes it cracks me up how much some people overstep simple critique of a home here all the way over into just plain being bossy and telling the homeowners how to live, where they should eat their meals, etc. Good for such a laugh. ;-)
This place isn't entirely my style, but I think it's so cozy and wonderful nonetheless. It's homey and looks well loved so that's all that's important.
Actually ... one other thing important ... what is the model of your washer/dryer combo? Is it one of those ones that are made for RVs mostly? I want to convert my utility closet to a mini laundry and the no-vent thing is very enticing! That's one thing I miss about living in London ... every kitchen I had included one of these beauties.
Do you mind sharing your resource for the window planters in the kitchen? Thanks in advance.
now this is how to have bright colorful walls :)
Great layout, great visual focus, looks like a wonderful place to live.
Thank you all for the wonderful comments, please hurry and vote, we have to move to San Francisco soon for new jobs. We are sad to leave the apartment, but we are not selling. To anser some of the questions...
-The color in the kitchen is Asparagus Green from Behr.
-The washer/dryer is from LG, got it locally, but you can find it on compactappliance.com.
-The herbs in the window is a system from IKEA, but they no longer make it.
-The bedroom layout is right, but in the middle of being scraped and painted- no pics for now.
-Kitchen counters are black granite tiles with an aluminum edge from a company names Schulter.
This is lovely! It's so inspiring to see such small spaces turned into living masterpieces. Also, I <3 your lime Le Creuset.
ah everytime i see awesome brick walls in east coast homes i get so jealous!
love it :)
Tatyana -- I did miss the first response to your post.
But pointing out my oversight with "asked and answered" is a little snippy. I think this site is great, and I love reading everyone's comments and being able to share mine. I just wish we could keep things polite and (for lack of a better word) nice.
This is one of the most tasteful-yet-generous uses of color I've seen yet, and to me the place looks great. The photography is pretty lush, as well, which really helps. I had to say Stellar.
kristine, I'm a busy woman, a professional, and I value my time. As well as other people's time - I don't pound my arguments into people's heads again and again, out of respect to others' intellectual abilities.
I paid attention to your comment and replied - that constitutes politeness. Note: I didn't call you names or lectured you on "proper" behavior. That's politness.
Wish I could say the same about you.
Greatness of the site has nothing to do with the topic here, which is design critique of the apartment shown for contest.
For some reason, this entry is the only one not yet posted on the contest page.
I, on the other hand, am never too busy (nor too professional), to take a little extra time in order to be polite to others. "Politeness" isn't synonymous with "lack of total brutality."
I love your place--the decor and use of color is wonderfully warm and inviting without feeling either too cluttered and frumpy or (as happens more often on this site) uniform and unrealistically spartan. It's also a beautiful example of how well eclectic can work. This a place I would love to live in.
The only thing that I find odd is how far the dining area is from the kitchen. That seems to me that it would be a bit awkward when you have dinner parties. Have you had any mishaps as you walk through your living room?
Tatyana you seem to have plenty of time to engage in back-and-forth posting squabbles on this site. Perhaps your time would be better spent focusing on your busy professional life?
Um, in 520 square feet, some of that bedroom, the kitchen isn't really that far from *any*thing...
I actually did kind of notice that living room separating the kitchen and dining room, but I think tha basically, since the whole place is so dang pretty and civilized, I just kind of imagined everything going well in that kind of environment, regardless of that tiny little point.
The more I come back to this entry, the more I wish it was in NY and available ;-)
AT needs to do a full house tour before the owners move across country. I want to see the other two rooms and all the other details like that fab built-in pantry in the kitchen.
Insta (my 4th). Can't decide whether I most want to live here or have you invite me to dinner. (The kitchen and sociability of the layout generally, greatly inclines me towards the latter).
tfaron - I heart you. :-)
Man! I have GOT to get some design sense and do something about my apartment! I can recognize all the elements I am now in love with, but I don't know how to transfer all this new data into real life.
If AT decides to hold a (rented) apartment make-over contest, why, they should start with me, cos I'm patenting the idea right now. (I'm pretty sure I'm the first one to think of this. Heh.)
Lovely. The only thing I don't like at all is the brick wall. I've seen too many to be charmed by them, and its mutedness seems to compete with, or drain, the great colors.
i love the brick wall. adore it.
the kitchen is a little too clutter for my taste...
SO pretty!! Love the kitchen window seat!
This is utterly spectacular. I truly do not know how anyone voted "not my thang" for this submission. It is so well done and is simple yet not sparse with a cheery feeling to it. Color preferences aside (as some people have remarked on), this is THE gem of all gems.
Amazing job!!!!!!
Aha We're practically neighbours, 42Anderson. Glad to see a fellow Beacon Hiller on AT- I'm around the corner on Myrtle. Cheers to a beautiful apartment!!
Excellent use of stop light colors :=] I especially like the kitchen. I keep returning to these pix. Thanks for the inspiration.
Now that's how you use colors.
Freakin' cool! Love the colors.
I missed the voting for this, but this should be an insta-finalist.
your kitchen design is awesome, i only wish the cabinets went up to the ceiling.
I love the mini cabinents.
I am working with my landlord on my kitchen upgrade and I am going to suggest we use them. I want room for an exposed shelf below them and plan to use the top for bulky, not used daily items: popcorn maker, juicer stcok pot etc.
Thnbaks for the inspiration!
I love the dining room in front, it makes perfect sense right there. Kitchen is NOT cluttered....it's fully equipped by a passionate home chef, and the placement of the so-called "clutter" makes this kitchen perfectly functional :-)
I love it.
don't change a thing! the look is homey and cozy.

19.09.14 Runway To Red Carpet
Zhang Ziyi joined Fan Bingbing on the red carpet this evening (September 19) for the Harper's Bazaar China Charity Gala in China where she was the host.
While I was expecting an princess gown from Zhang Ziyi, she went left, and served up this laidback elegant Lanvin Resort 2015 look.
No bells, no whistles; just a achingly understated black and white silk blouse with a black maxi skirt oozing boho chic.
I love that she didn't overdress, styling the look with some complementary accessories including a gold flower belt, silver jewels and Roger Vivier clutch.
Wavy tresses and a red lip rounded out her pitch perfect look.
J'adore. Some times less is more. Do you agree?

19.09.14 Runway To Red Carpet
Zoe Saldana attended the 2014 Hispanic Heritage Awards at Warner Theatre on Thursday (September 18) in Washington, DC.
The actress used the occasion to showcase the designs of fellow Latin star Juan Carlos Obando, wearing a look from his Fall 2014 collection.
In the later stages of the pregnancy we would forgive Zoe for perhaps not being on top form and taking her foot off the gas style-wise, but the mother-to-be is not letting things slip in that department.
She looked stunning in her satin and tulle gown styled with Sam Lehr jewels.
I love how the satin peplum detail perfectly caresses and flatters her bump, giving her a gorgeous silhouette.
She's never looked better during this maternity phase.

19.09.14 Shop The Look
ASOS Africa celebrates its 10th season anniversary with a selection of autumnal floral and kanga prints, with lavender, yellow and black shorts, duster jackets, shirts, trousers and dresses featuring in the collection alongside some checked pieces.
What's great about this collection is that the fabrics are sourced locally – with the proceeds going towards boosting jobs in Kenya, where the collection is made.
Joanna Maiden from SOKO, a clothing production workshop in Kenya, told me that since the company was founded in 2011, they have expanded from a team of 4 to 45. The workforce, which is largely made up of women, receive a free lunch and on-site childcare. The financial empowerment gives them the opportunity to pay for their children's education, among other things.
Prices start from £38 for shorts to £65 for the jacket.
Michelle Obama has been a big supporter of the ASOS Africa collection, having worn pieces from the collection on three separate occasions.
ASOS invited me to select a look from the ASOS Africa collection. My thought when selecting was, what would Solange Knowles do? Mix and match her prints, of course, plus add a statement shoe, which is what I did.
For every sale from the ASOS Africa Fall 2014 collection ASOS will donate £2 to contribute to food and welfare facilities for SOKO workers.
You can see more from the ASOS Africa Fall 2014 collection at ASOS.com US and ASOS.com.

Hard Hands was a group consisting of me (DENVER), Ken and Paul Allan. Ken and Paul had a band called Sounds of the Barbary Coast, which was excellent. They now have a band called Houndstooth and the Wolfhounds…also excellent. Paul is a phenomenal artist. Ken is an attorney. I once saw Ken pull a villain's shirt over its head and then repeatedly punch the villain's face. It was similar to hockey.
This elephant lives on the arm of Daniel Ahearn, one of my all time favorite singers. More DENVER tattoos in the works.
Hear some awesome music from Daniel at this link…he rips,
—nike 2nd
Here's the song from Koston's nike interview. I made this song two weeks ago while in Denmark for my father-in-law's birthday. We had a great time there. Danes are solid.
My buddy Scott is one of the best artists ever invented. He paints paintings that warm hearts and freeze lava. He is also highly friendly and very funny.
You can see his art while listening to one of my songs at this link.
Go Scott!
Casiotone For the Painfully Alone is one of my all time favorite bands. That band is a master at Words With Friends, too. I haven't even come close to beating him. I remember him talking about Scrabble on tour. CTFPA drew this poster and I screened it.
We played a show in Nashville, TN in a real dive. When Total Shutdown played Nashville, we played with a metal band called Without MF Order. They were transported to that show from an early '80s highschool movie and could not be stopped. They sounded like Poison. WMFO was energetic, optimistic and raging. Somehow they liked TS, too. We were best friends that night.
Casiotone for the Painfully Alone and I didn't play that place. We were in the slums. While waiting to play, we grew hungry so we left the venue and walked to find food.
There was no food, just murder-alleys and death-houses. As we walked by a murder-house with criminals sitting on the front stoop, I sincerely thought Owen and I were going to have to do damage.
Owen is a big man and if he wanted to he could annihilate bad guys, but he is kind and peace-loving. Thankfully, the villains didn't attack.
After we'd left the goons in the dust, a weird guy started walking with us. He was highly inquisitive and he walked us right out of the slums. We think he was an undercover cop who wanted to help ferry us to safety after he realized we weren't searching for drugs or switchblades.
Long live Casiotone For the Painfully Alone!
This beautiful poster was designed by Blake Leeman. I burned the screen, with help from Will Rogan at the SF Art Institute. I screened the poster in my garage in the Sunset district of SF. The poster is screened on the blank side of Final Destination 2 posters.
After playing shows on tour, if my poster was still up after my set, I'd take it. That is a sign of an inner hoarder dying to get out.

My brother is a nightmare walking, psychopath talking, king of the jungle just a warrior stalking.

SFLC Says Suit Will Go On
According to the attorney for the Software Freedom Law Center, Dan Ravicher, Monsoon Multimedia isn't getting off the hook for GPL infringement. The SFLC filed suit against the company last month after a Monsoon representative admitted the company's non-GPL software incorporated GPL-licensed elements.
Reports surfaced days later that the matter had been resolved out of court. Ravicher has cleared up any lingering speculation: "Simply coming into compliance now is not sufficient." The first GPL suit is still on, and the SFLC intends to send a message.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Murray • Isaac Aguilar looked into the crowd, which included 25 or so members of his extended family, and told himself there was no way a talented, but undersized, boxer from Wyoming was going to keep him from advancing to the Golden Gloves National Championships in Mesquite, Nev., later this month.
"I was telling myself in my head that I have worked too hard to lose this," Aguilar said. "I thought, 'I have to go to nationals. I have to show all those people out there that believe in me that I can do it.'"
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Dominating throughout the championship bout of the 123-pound division in the Rocky Mountain Region Golden Gloves, West Valley City's Aguilar overwhelmed Wyoming's Gabe Montoya on Saturday night at The Sports Mall, recording a pair of knockdowns in the second round and a standing eight count in the third.
"One of the knockdowns was from a blow to the body," said Aquilar, who dedicates every fight to the memory of his father, Victor Aguilar, who was murdered in a downtown Salt Lake City restaurant when Isaac was 9 months old.
"The other knockdown, my punch was kind of low, I believe. But the first one, I know, I am 100 percent sure, it was a body shot that did it because he threw out his mouthpiece. He couldn't breathe."
Montoya was fighting up a division, and it showed.
"He was a bit smaller than me," Aguilar acknowledged, "and a lot skinnier."
About 500 boxing fans took in the 12 bouts — six in the Junior Olympic Class and six in the Open Class — and saw some of the best amateur boxing the region has to offer.
Winners of the six Open Class bouts, including Aguilar, advance to nationals April 30 through May 6 in Mesquite. Some boxers, including Utah's Jonathan Martinez at 114 pounds, were unopposed Saturday night and will also go to nationals.
Another Utahn, 16-year-old Highland High junior Danny Galloway, advanced with a first-round win over Tyler Shiever of Montana when the referee stopped the 165-pound bout.
"Left hook to the body," Galloway said of the blow that knocked Shiever down, the earliest TKO of Galloway's three-year career. "I was going for that."
Galloway, who defeated Wyoming's Alfredo Lawderoz in Friday's semifinals, said making the nationals in Golden Gloves "means everything to me. … It means a lot."
Utah's Ignacio Chairez (132), Wyoming's Tyler Canning (152), Idaho's Dillon Fowler (178) and Utah's Jesse West (201) also won bouts Saturday to make the nationals.
In the Junior Olympic bouts, Montana's Ruben Marquez, Utah's Braedon Vinison, Idaho's Roberto Perez, Utah's Bladimir Estrada, Utah's Marco Alvarez and Utah's Miguel Garcia were victors Saturday.

Arizona State Sun Devils
Fork Report: ASU routs Sacramento State
TEMPE -- With his older brother, NBA star Eric in attendance, Arizona State junior Evan Gordon broke out of a shooting slump, pumping in a career-high 29 points in a 90-70 win over Sacramento State at Wells Fargo Arena.
"It was exciting, I guess," downplayed Gordon when asked if he was happy to play well in front of his older sibling. "It was good to play good, I guess he won't critique me as much now."
There's not much to critique really. Gordon hit 5-of-9 three-point attempts and added five assists and three steals in the win.
The Good - After a sluggish performance against Arkansas-Pine Bluff Thursday night, the Sun Devils came out focused and ready to play. ASU hit their first three shots on the night, two of them three-pointers courtesy of Gordon, and stormed out to an 8-0 lead in the games first 1:42. The Devils would never trail.
It was great to see Gordon to get off to a good start from the field. The transfer from Liberty, who came to ASU with a reputation as a scorer, was shooting just 27% from the field and 21% from three-point range coming into the game.
ASU forward Carrick Felix recorded his first double-double of the season with 21 points and 12 rebounds, which marks a new career-high. The senior from Millennium High School in Goodyear has now scored in double figures in six straight games
Freshman post Eric Jacobsen was instrumental in ASU's quick start. The Hamilton High product had 4 points and 7 rebounds in 14 minutes off of Herb Sendek's bench. Jacobsen finished with 6 points and 9 rebounds.
ASU also made 11 three-pointers, their season high.
The Bad - Not much really...I suppose you could point to Jahii Carson only having three assists in the game to go along with five turnovers. In reality, two of the turnovers came on carrying calls -- the most subjective call in all of college basketball.
Like I said, there wasn't much.
Noted - ASU had 21 assists on 31 field goals -- tying a season-high in that category.
The Sun Devils' 11 turnovers were also a season-low.
ASU outrebounded the Hornets 47-36, including 15 on the offensive end -- their second-most on the season. The Sun Devils had 20 offensive boards in their season opener against Central Arkansas.
Next up: ASU will host Hartford Wednesday night in Tempe.
