Derived from the Greek words pais, meaning child, and iatros, which means doctor or healer, a pediatrician is a medical professional who specializes in providing medical care to children. Although there are surviving manuscripts devoted to pediatrics from earlier times, it was not until the middle of the 19th century that it was recognized and developed as a new medical specialty. Known for his many contributions to the field, Abraham Jacobi is considered as the father of pediatrics. He was born in Germany where he received his medical training, but later went to the United States to practice. It was there that he opened the first children's clinic in New York.

Providing physical, mental and emotional care for their patients, pediatricians are concerned with the health of infants, children and teenagers. They perform diagnostic tests to obtain information of the patient's medical condition and administer treatments, therapies, medications and vaccinations to treat illness, disorders or injuries. They also treat those who are suffering from minor injuries, acute and chronic health problems, and physiological and psychological growth and development concerns. They counsel and guide patients and their parents or guardians concerning diet, hygiene and disease prevention. The field of pediatrics is a collaborative specialty - primary care pediatricians may refer patients to a medical specialist, if they manifest symptoms of serious medical condition, in order to efficiently address the issue. Pediatrics is a very broad field, encompassing general practice to children's oncology, hence the need for collaborative effort among medical professionals.
The training for a pediatrician takes anywhere from eleven to twenty years after completing high school, depending on the university and jurisdiction and the degree of specialization required, as they vary considerably across the world. Typically, after high school, students will need four years of undergraduate courses in a college or university, majoring in biology or another science-related major. The course major need not necessarily be science-related, so long as the pre-med course requirements such as calculus, organic chemistry, biochemistry, biology, chemistry and physics are completed. There is also a medical college admission test to pass along with a certain level of school grades to be attained in order to qualify and get accepted by a medical school. Four more years will be required working for a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) or Doctor of Osteopathy (D.O.) degree. However, a few schools offer combined undergraduate and medical schools program that last six rather than the customary eight years. The first two years of medical school mainly consist of classroom and laboratory learning, while the last two years involve first-hand clinical experience under the supervision and guidance of licensed professionals. After medical school, the next step would be to complete a one-year pediatric internship, which includes hands-on training and experience in baby care.
After a successful internship, students are required to take a two-year residency program to obtain further knowledge and experience in the field. Once this phase is completed, they are now ready to take the general pediatrics certification program which is necessary for obtaining a license. After getting board certified, they can commence their work as a licensed pediatrician. Most pediatricians at this stage choose to continue their education in pediatric subspecialties such as adolescent medicine, developmental disorders, gastroenterology, infectious disease, nephrology, oncology, cardiology, endocrinology, etc.
Pediatricians can work in a number of environments, such as hospitals, private practice offices, health maintence organizations, community health centers, public health clinics, schools, or the military and government. They are less likely to enter solo practice and more likely to work as salaried employees of group medical practices. In a typical setting, pediatricians enjoy a pleasant working environment as they are generally assigned to offices and examination rooms most amenable to children. That means offices and rooms lined up with children's books, toys and activities to occupy children during waiting periods and distract them when undergoing painful procedures. Working with children has its drawbacks, however. They can be unruly patients, often restless and sometimes hysterical and frightened by doctors and medical procedures. The utmost patience must be exercised in dealing with them, which is where pediatrics training is invaluable. Overall, the experience is generally pleasant, as most children are behaved enough to act accordingly.
Professionals in medical fields generally earn lucrative incomes, and pediatricians are no exception. In the United States, on average they draw a yearly salary of approximately $160,000. There are several factors that come into play in determining the earning level of these medical practitioners. Two of the biggest factors are their level of expertise and years of experience in the field that they bring to their position. Other considerations are where they practice, the size and type of employer and the geographical location. Job prospects and employment outlook for aspiring pediatricians is bright. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for all types of physicians should grow by 22% percent from 2008 to 2018. As the world population increases, so does the need for health care professionals to cater to their medical needs.

Plenty of esteemed strategists are revising their S&P estimates lower but not the legendary Byron Wien.
In a live interview on CNBC's Fast Money Halftime Report Wien, who is Blackstone Advisory Partners Vice Chairman, tells us he sees every reason for the market to rally.
"I see us going to 1500," he says. "We won't go in a straight line – it might be a saw-tooth pattern – but I think we get there by year's end."
Wien says that his bullish outlook is due in part to thelatest economic data which shows modest improvement. "The US is getting better." And he believes the market is growing more comfortable with the crisis in Europe.
In addition, he says the market is generally too bearish. "There's a lot of negativity in the market. Hedge funds have been cautious," he says. That in turn could trigger a chase for performance with only 11% of hedge funds currently returning more than the S&P.
However, of all the catalysts in the market, Wien seems to think the one that's sorely misunderstood is the fiscal cliff. Although Congress won't do anything before the election, he believes strongly they will act after. And he tells us the outcome of the election won't matter.
"The fiscal cliff represents 3.8% of GDP – neither party will risk the political aftermath of throwing the economy into a recession."
In other words, the caution in the market currently generated by the looming fiscal cliff is probably unwarranted.
And once the fiscal cliff anxiety abates, Wien believes money will rotate out of bonds and into stocks as investors seek returns. He sees cyclicals and technology attracting capital. "They'll do well enough," he says. "And consumer staples (will also attract money) – the multiples and yields are attractive, there."
All told, Wien believes on average "S&P earnings for the year will be $100 – and I think the market can sell at 15 times that – so that's how I get to the target price of 1500."

As previously reported, ABC Entertainment Group President, Paul Lee, has called much of the networks new 2013-2014 primetime dramas "soaps," and we definitely agree with that assessment. Wondering what our readers thought of the shows, we thought we'd give you a closer look at the networks new dramatic offerings.
8:00 PM – "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."
Clark Gregg reprises his role of Agent Phil Coulson from Marvel's feature films, as he assembles a small, highly select group of Agents from the worldwide law-enforcement organization known as S.H.I.E.L.D. Together they investigate the new, the strange and the unknown around the globe, protecting the ordinary from the extraordinary. Coulson's team consists of Agent Grant Ward (Brett Dalton), highly trained in combat and espionage; Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen), expert pilot and martial artist; Agent Leo Fitz (Iain De Caestecker), brilliant engineer; and Agent Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge), genius bio-chemist. Joining them on their journey into mystery is new recruit and computer hacker Skye (Chloe Bennet).
10:00 PM – "Lucky 7″
In Astoria, Queens, a group of seven gas station employees have been chipping into a lottery pool for months, never thinking they'd actually win. Money could solve problems for each of them: Matt (Matt Long) could get his girlfriend and two kids out of his mother's house; Matt's brother, Nicky (Stephen Louis Grush), an ex-con, could pay off a dangerous debt; Samira (Summer Bishil), a second-generation Pakistani immigrant, could afford to go to Juilliard; Denise (Lorraine Bruce), a plucky cashier, could focus on rebuilding her crumbling marriage; Leanne (Anastasia Phillips), a young mother, could help her daughter realize her dreams; Bob (Isiah Whitlock, Jr.), the store's manager, could finally retire; and Antonio (Luis Antonio Ramos) could give his wife and kids a whole new life.
ABC has consistently brought soap-worthy programming to primetime ("Desperate Housewives" and "Revenge," to name but two), and the schedule for this fall is no different: Intermixing with popular mainstay shows like "The Middle," "Modern Family," and "Grey's Anatomy," come thirteen brand new shows, a few of which may spur "General Hospital" and other daytime soaps to come to mind! And Wendy Moniz (ex-Mayor Finn, "One Life to Live," ex-Dinah Marler, "Guiding Light") strengthens the soap/primetime connection with a role in the new drama, "Betrayal." Read on to get the exciting details!

Helping Students, And Companies, Tackle Jobs And Talent Challenges
It's not only in June that we'll see a new crop of graduates emerging from university and post-grad programs. Many students also don cap-and-gown for December ceremonies – a prelude to wearing regular or casual business attire, they hope.
Of course, matching up with the right job is always a challenging prospect. That's true on many fronts – the slow economy, for one, but also just figuring out what the ideal career fit will be. Pymetrics is hoping to help solve that problem, with its recent announcement of a career assessment and recruiting platform that draws on neuroscience games-based assessment – a nice touch for the crowd that largely grew up with Playstations, Gameboys, iPods, Xboxes and the rest of the digital gaming gang – and machine learning.

Don't let Wilder move on, say Oxford United fans
9:00am Tuesday 3rd December 2013 in Sport By David Pritchard , Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458
Oxford United's supporters have made their feelings clear on the speculation over manager Chris Wilder's future.
The club remained silent yesterday, although the Oxford Mail understands they have received a formal approach from Ports-mouth to speak with the U's boss.
When the story broke on Saturday, Ian Lenagan responded by asking what supporters thought about the situation.
We are able to answer the question, after polling fans on the Oxford Mail website yesterday.
More than 1,600 votes were cast, with almost three-quarters keen for the club to do what they could to keep Wilder.
It did not surprise Joe Nicholls, who has organised Ultimate Support days to boost the atmosphere at home games and is a leading member of supporter group the Yellow Army.
He said: "From the fans I have spoken to, the majority want him to stay.
"The fact is we are top of the league, what more do you want?
"At this stage I don't want anything to change and I would hope Chris Wilder feels the same."
Nicholls thinks Wilder should be given the chance to speak to Portsmouth, but predicted it would lead to him staying put.
"If Portsmouth want to speak there's not much point in stopping him," he said.
"I believe if he went there he wouldn't be interested.
"I think the long-term plan at Oxford is a good one by using the young players, and I can't imagine Portsmouth having anything like that in the near future."
United will have to make their position clear soon, as Portsmouth are due to begin interviews today in the hope of making an appointment by next Monday.
Their short-list decreased yesterday, as Newport County revealed they had rejected an approach from the Hampshire club after a discussion with manager Justin Edinburgh.
Mark Sennett, chairman of United's supporters' trust OxVox, called for fans to put their faith in Lenagan.
He said: "I think we have got to trust the owner to make a decision.
"He made one at the end of last season (awarding Wilder a new contract) and right now all fans have got to be delighted with where we are in the league.
"It will be an interesting few days to see what happens."
But Sennett was keen to see the situation resolved as quickly as possible.
"Nobody wants the attention to be taken away from the great position we are in, so we don't want to see it drawn out," he said.

It happened during the last three weeks of the regular season. That's when the Gamecocks lost seven of nine games but began putting themselves in the position they occupy now -- a first-round game in the Tuscaloosa Regional on Friday night against Alabama, the defending national champion.
Back then, JSU coach Jana McGinnis could see her team wasn't going to win either of the top two seeds for the Ohio Valley Conference tournament. So, she geared practices and workouts toward being ready for the league tournament and whatever came afterward.
Pitchers came to practice an hour earlier and threw pitch after pitch. The hitters took extra swings in the batting cage. And everybody ran. And ran. And ran.
"We wanted to win and get into the OVC tournament," McGinnis said, "but we started putting our minds toward winning the tournament."
Count her mission accomplished on the final practice before heading to Illinois for the OVC tournament. The pitchers had worked on a drill in which they had to hit a small target pitch after pitch. So, at the end of that last practice, McGinnis said she would reduce the number of sprints the team had to run if any of the pitchers could hit that target 10 times out of 10 attempts.
JSU junior Tiffany Harbin raised her hand and accepted the challenge. She hit all 10.
"I was thinking, 'We're ready for the tournament,'" JSU infielder Sara Borders said.
JSU followed by winning all four OVC tournament games and the championship, with Harbin pitching every inning. That put the Gamecocks (30-25) into the Tuscaloosa Regional as the No. 4 seed. They'll play No. 1-seeded Alabama (42-13) on Friday night at 6 at the Crimson Tide's Rhoads Stadium.
If JSU wins, it will play again Saturday at 1 p.m. against either South Carolina-Upstate or Western Kentucky. If the Gamecocks lose to the Tide, they'll play at 3:30 p.m. Saturday against the USC-Upstate/WKU loser.
Alabama will face a JSU team that used those three weeks working on fundamentals and getting prepared for this moment. The fundamental work apparently paid off, with JSU committing only three errors in the OVC tournament.
"The kids we have, they don't have the numbers we've had sometimes in the past," McGinnis said. "They don't have a lot of home runs. What we do have are the things you can't see. We have the intangibles, which is why we won."
JSU has played Alabama 10 times in its softball history, losing all 10 times. The most recent meeting came April 2 when the Tide took an 11-3 win.
But for Tide coach Patrick Murphy, the way JSU played in that OVC win has given him something to think about.
"They don't beat themselves," Murphy said. "They know how to do it. They just won the Ohio Valley tournament. Plus, they've got the coaching staff that's been to regionals before."
Murphy mentioned two players in particular -- Borders, a first-team all-OVC player, and Harbin.
"Harbin was terrific in the Ohio Valley tournament," Murphy said. "She worries me. She threw every inning and then threw a shutout on the last day in the biggest game.
"Borders is a great hitter. She could play in the SEC."
And it all comes down to that important three-week stretch of work at the end of the regular season.
But what if Harbin hadn't gone 10-for-10 on that last drill? What if she had missed one? Did she think about the stakes as she got closer to 10?
"I wasn't keeping count," she said with a smile. "I tried not to think about it. If I had thought about it, I would've tried too hard. I just didn't think about it."

My new I5-660 cpu is overheating. I have reset the CPU and updated the BIOS as well as all the drivers on mu Intel Dh55tc motherboard. This is a brand new cpu and motherboard I bought from intel 2 weeks ago. Can someone offer me some help? I have tried new thermal grease etc..
What temps is it getting to? where are you reading it from? whats the idle temp in BIOS? Also what case do you have it in? and what power supply?
Upto 210 F then very slowly it will get down to 63 C. In the BIOS 104C. Its in a raid max case with 450watt power supply and 120mm cooling fan in the back of the case.After about 2 hour it cools down. Today it worked perfect.This tends to happen on power up then after awhile cools down.
The problem has to do with the external SATA port on the motherboard and the harddrive getting hot. Don't ask me how. But everytime I hoook up my HD to the eSATA port it happens.

"The Lord mighty in battle." {#Ps 24:8}
Well may our God be glorious in the eyes of his people, seeing that he has wrought such wonders for them, in them, and by them. For them, the Lord Jesus upon Calvary routed every foe, breaking all the weapons of the enemy in pieces by his finished work of satisfactory obedience; by his triumphant resurrection and ascension he completely overturned the hopes of hell, leading captivity captive, making a show of our enemies openly, triumphing over them by his cross. Every arrow of guilt which Satan might have shot at us is broken, for who can lay anything to the charge of God's elect? Vain are the sharp swords of infernal malice, and the perpetual battles of the serpent's seed, for in the midst of the church the lame take the prey, and the feeblest warriors are crowned.
The saved may well adore their Lord for his conquests in them, since the arrows of their natural hatred are snapped, and the weapons of their rebellion broken. What victories has grace won in our evil hearts! How glorious is Jesus when the will is subdued, and sin dethroned! As for our remaining corruptions, they shall sustain an equally sure defeat, and every temptation, and doubt, and fear, shall be utterly destroyed. In the Salem of our peaceful hearts, the name of Jesus is great beyond compare: he has won our love, and he shall wear it. Even thus securely may we look for victories by us. We are more than conquerors through him that loved us. We shall cast down the powers of darkness which are in the world, by our faith, and zeal, and holiness; we shall win sinners to Jesus, we shall overturn false systems, we shall convert nations, for God is with us, and none shall stand before us. This evening let the Christian warrior chant the war song, and prepare for tomorrow's fight. Greater is he that is in us than he that is in the world.

Casino Gambling Could Help Veterans
Katie Court
CREATED Jun. 29, 2012
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The head of Wisconsin's Department of Veterans Affairs is suggesting that money from the state's taxes on alcohol and Native American casino gambling could he used to help shore up a fund supporting veterans.
Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary John Scocos makes the recommendation in a report to leaders of the Legislature's budget committee submitted Friday.
Lawmakers last year injected $5 million into the fund that pays for a variety of programs including assistance for employment, housing, health care, education, and transportation.
The report says the fund will be solvent only until 2014. Scocos, and Board of Veterans Affairs Chairman Alan Richards, support looking at a number of ways to raise money, including creating a new veterans-themed lottery and a new credit card for veterans.

Anyone familiar with The Joint's operations? What time will doors open, etc.?
@Pete, it says they have a full service bar on every level, so I think you're covered! and there's never a reason to apologize for wanting to know where your drink is coming from esp. in Vegas haha http://thejointlasvegas.com/Home/The-Venue/Guest-Services.aspx
@Disneygirl agreed on the bag size thing, why does that even need to be said?? Unless of course you are planning on stuffing the adorable Rivers into your packback and taking him home with you...which, ok, maybe I'd do that LOL
@Steven and all pre-show partyers, I am a maybe for Center Bar; will be with the bf and a couple out of town friends who are staying at a diff hotel, so we may defer plans to them...
random note, would it not be AWESOME if the 41 of us who RSVPed here were the only ones at the show lol?! What an amazing private concert THAT would be =D

Waterfall Wine Chiller
Did you know that wine temperature is a very complex and subtle area of vinophilia? Well, when we served Merlot straight from the fridge last night, it turned out we didn't. It seems that a lot of people are missing out on the subtleties of wine temperature, most whites being served too cold and reds too warm. With this gorgeous Waterfall Wine Chiller you need worry no longer: simply pop your bottle in the chiller and watch the beautiful waterfall effect cascade around it, taking your wine to the perfect temperature. With all the main varieties of wine covered by pre-programmed temperature settings, all you have to do is wait, watch and then drink (responsibly).
- A wine chiller that takes your wine to the optimum drinking temperature.
- Waterfall chilling function gently sprays water over bottle to cool it evenly.
- Revolving bottle chamber.
- Computer controlled to ensure correct temperature.
- Pre-programmed wine settings - select your wine (Merlot, Chardonnay etc) and the chiller knows the ideal temperature.
- Built-in auto shut-off function.
- Suitable for ages 18 years +. Unless you put Ribena in it.
- H: 48 W: 22 D: 22 cm.

Comprehensively Dissapointing
This was to be a present for my brother and whilst it might look like the 'must have' kitchen gadget... it is thoroughly dreadful and irritating in what it does. The waterfall pump is extremely noisy and intrusive, and the rotating function is not robust in my opinion to withstand any regular use. Once unpacked, the space age looks are shattered by the cheap plastic choice of material. I could perhaps have lived with these issues if there was some active built in refrigeration. There is not - you have to fill the cooler with ice and water for the cooling effect to happen. On a positive note it does in fact appear to manage to cool your favourite vino to an appropriate temperature (though that relies on assumed internal temperature sensing and programming). On balance, the description is not misleading so I've no quibble there - it is the cost for such a practically useless and irritating kitchen and dinner party gadget!

"IBM equipment works fantastically. It works long term. When it comes to our cloud solution, there is no one else we would have considered." - Gareth Chillingworth, technical director, i-Layer
Computer Services
Deployment country:
United Kingdom
IGF, Cloud Computing, Virtualization, Virtualization - Server
IBM Business Partner:
Based in London, i-Layer has provided IT solutions, support and services to small and midsize businesses since 1995. Working with a variety of customers, many of which are in the financial industry, i-Layer is an IBM Business Partner and IBM reseller that provides hardware, software and 24/7 services.
Business need:
i-Layer wanted to expand its IBM hardware and software resale business to meet growing customer needs for secure, high-performance, cost-effective cloud solutions and hosted cloud services.
i-Layer deployed IBM® BladeCenter® HS23, IBM System x® 3550 M4 and 3650 M4 servers with intelligent Intel® Xeon® processors, IBM System Storage® DS3000 and SUSE Linux with KVM virtualization technology.
Using KVM, i-Layer lowered its software licensing costs by 70 percent. The IBM and KVM cloud platform also helped the company reduce its server-provisioning time from two weeks to just 15 minutes
Case Study
Based in London, i-Layer has provided IT solutions, support and services to small and midsize businesses since 1995. Working with a variety of customers, many of which are in the financial industry, i-Layer is an IBM Business Partner and IBM reseller that provides hardware, software and 24/7 services.
IT evolution—moving toward the cloud
Over the past several years, i-Layer has evolved its IT infrastructure to meet the company's changing internal business needs. i-Layer began by virtualizing its servers to support its business functions, then decided to take the next step: transitioning to a cloud platform that would be accessible by its London and South Africa offices and by remote workers. Following this successful implementation came a similar move aimed at i-Layer's clients. The company began offering hosted cloud services to customers, as well as setting up private clouds for customers to run at their own sites. Describing this business shift, Gareth Chillingworth, technical director at i-Layer, says, "One by one, our clients in London began to realize that the private cloud was the best place to run their production systems, especially as their workforces have become more and more distributed."
Before i-Layer began to roll out these cloud services to customers, the company focused on its own cloud requirements for security, performance and cost. Providing adequate security in a multi-tenant cloud environment hosting numerous customers was a top priority, so i-Layer built security into its infrastructure. Ensuring fast and dependable cloud performance—and having the ability to quickly provision resources—was another main goal. Also critical was controlling costs when deploying new hardware and virtualization software—i-Layer needed to contain its own operational expenses while offering competitive services to customers.
An infrastructure to meet exacting requirements
Working with long-time business partner, IBM, i-Layer deployed a cloud infrastructure capable of meeting these specific requirements. The i-Layer hosted cloud, running in an offsite data center, is powered by virtualized IBM BladeCenter HS21 and HS23 servers with Intel Xeon processors running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.2 with KVM technology. For cloud storage, i-Layer uses IBM System Storage DS3000 systems connected to IBM System x 3550 M4 and x3650 M4 servers with Intel Xeon processors functioning as Network File System (NFS) nodes. They use IBM Systems Director for server management and IBM Tivoli® Storage Manager to run regular data backups.
By using SUSE Linux with KVM technology, i-Layer was able to easily meet the technical requirements it had defined for its cloud. The kernel same-page merging feature of KVM provides memory page-sharing capabilities that enable i-Layer to get the most out of its hardware when supporting clients with multiple virtual machines in the cloud.
The use of BladeCenter servers enables i-Layer to segment its cloud into separate, controllable nodes while enabling centralized management. This helps i-Layer significantly reduce the amount of time it takes to provision new virtual machines. The compactness of the BladeCenter deployment also enables i-Layer to make very efficient use of data-center space and reduce power consumption.
The System x servers deliver another important benefit, providing the caching capabilities that enable the company to boost the write performance of its DS3000 system. These servers have also proven to be "fantastic" in their interoperation with SUSE Linux, according to Chillingworth.
A cloud platform with multiple benefits
The i-Layer cloud based on IBM hardware and software and SUSE Linux with KVM technology has enabled the company to easily meet the security requirements it set for its cloud infrastructure. KVM provides security capabilities that provide isolation between multiple tenants in the cloud, which is increasingly important as the number of i-Layer cloud customers grows.
KVM has also enabled i-Layer to realize significant cost savings, lowering software-licensing costs 70 percent below competitive virtualization software. The use of BladeCenter servers has also helped i-Layer lower costs by reducing data-center space requirements and power consumption. "The savings are phenomenal on power. BladeCenter offers such an efficient package," says Patrick Fitzgerald, Managing Director at i-Layer.
As for performance, i-Layer can now provision server instances in the cloud in about 15 minutes, compared to previous methods of deploying physical servers that could take two weeks or more to complete.
Not only has the i-Layer solution enabled the company to meet specific goals, but the new cloud has helped the company to transform its business by providing new managed cloud service offerings to customers. According to Riki Roe, account manager at i-Layer, "We have found that it is much more lucrative for us to provide this kind of resource than to just be a traditional solution reseller. Now we have ongoing revenues from the same customers." Chillingworth believes the i-Layer cloud offerings help make the company more competitive, saying, "Customers are realizing that now is the time to move to cloud. Having the ability to provide this service really is our ace card."
Onward and upward into the cloud, with IBM
Looking forward, i-Layer plans to expand the capabilities of its cloud offerings by implementing OpenStack software, helping i-Layer to provide automated billing and simplified, self-service automatic provisioning so that customers can create their own virtual environments. i-Layer is also interested in deploying IBM PureFlex™ System to provide a highly scalable server platform to power its virtualized infrastructure.
Having worked with IBM for almost 15 years, Chillingworth plans to continue building upon this strong partnership, saying, "IBM equipment works fantastically. It works long term. When it comes to our cloud solution, there is no one else we would have considered."

No part of the vent shall be horizontal until 6" above the flood level rim of the highest fixture which is the lav so.......no
I am currently adding a bathroom to the basement. It's a small bathroom 4 x 6 feet. Are my vents correct ? Keep in mind my vent for the toilet and shower connections are going to be sanitary-Tee's or Wye's laying on its back.
I have two options for the shower vent. Do I run it to the back wall and up or should I run it to the left over the soil pipe and up?
The sink will be a wet vent. When connecting to the 4 inch soil pipe, will I need a sanitary tee or wye to on its back or can i put it on its side?
Do I need a vent for the toilet ?
Is it better safe than sorry and vent everything ?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
No part of the vent shall be horizontal until 6" above the flood level rim of the highest fixture which is the lav so.......no
[B]No, plumbing ain't rocket science. Unlike rocket science, plumbing requires a license[B]
my vent will be horizontal above flood level rim of sink. this is where the toilet and shower will vent to, then vent to 2" vertical vent ?
How will you get the vents to the outside wall without going horizontal under the floor? Are there walls next to the shower and toilet that you aren't showing?
What Tom is saying is that those vents need to be taken off vertically (>45*) and continue up until >6" above the lav (around 42"), which you cannot do in your layout unless there are some additional walls in the room that you are not showing. Once above 42", they can go horizontal and tie together. Usually, the best way to vent a bathroom group is to wet vent through the lav. You could run the lav in 2" and connect it into the shower line (also 2") to vent the shower. This would then continue to the toilet connection to vent the toilet (3" line would be fine here, but 4" is okay too). From the lav (going up), you would have either 1.5" or 2" vent (depending on what is required in your location) and that would continue through the roof (or tied into an existing vent connection in the attic). Some colder locations require you to step up to say 3" or greater when going through the roof to prevent frost from closing up the vent in the winter.
Without pics or being there, we can only say what will work from a general point of view. The best layout and what will actually work there depends on many factors that we cannot see (existing plumbing, location of joists/blocking, heat runs, etc.).
what do you mean by ""the sink will be a wet vent"? Your drawing does not indicate that. You appear to show the shower and toilet drains with horizontal vents under the floor, which is not permitted. What is the yellow line?
Licensed residential and commercial plumber
was planning to go horizontal under the floor with a wye on its back then up into the wall with a 90 degree to meet the sink. There will be a wall behind the shower toilet and sink. This is behind the blue outline of the room. Below is what I planned to put behind the lavatory and toilet, then this goes up to the vent.
So I can get rid of the vent (#1) going to the toilet then go up with the yellow vent to the roof?

You can't do that. You can't run dry vents under the floor (or have them horizontal any place lower than usually 42"). However, a wet vent can be horizontal since it is washed by a fixture. This is why bathroom groups are typically wet vented as it can be difficult to otherwise vent showers and toilets without putting additional walls in the room.
The other way to do it (using dry vents) is to run the fixtures to the closest wall and take your vents vertically there. However, there are limitations on how far you can go before venting, so this option is not always practical. Wet venting is usually much easier and will usually use fewer fittings and less pipe to get the job done.
You should search a bit more and see some layouts of what others have done and see if you can get the idea of wet venting. Many think that sticking a vent in the side of the main line will vent it, but that is not the case. Each trap needs to be vented and a dry vent can't be horizontal until above 42" (usually) (no running it under the floor).
I appreciate your knowledge and guidance in regards to plumbing. I understand you can't have a horizontal vent under the floor. How about a vent 45 degree with a 4 x 2 wye a bit further down and end up vertical in the wall cavity. Is this still considered horizontal. Then I could have the shower discharge into the vent. Please look at the drawing.
Not a pro but this might help. Depending on your code but it should be easy on such a small bath. Run the 3" pipe to your toilet from the main using a y connector (assuming horizontal branch). Branch off using wye or wye combo (rolled?) 2 inch to your lavatory and wet vent the other fixtures from the lav using 2" up the wall. Then branch off to your shower using wye or wye combo being careful to keep within the 5 foot distance for 2" branch.
Two inch drains (shower) can be 5 feet from their vent which in this case would be a wet vent at the 3". With some planning you can keep within those distances for the shower. The lav would is vented up the wall behind it using 2x2x1.5 sani-T. The toilet and shower would be wet vented. All this is done while maintaining proper pitch whic means when planning be sure to run the longer lines (shower?) first when dry fitting to see where things line up.
Last edited by tireiron; 01-08-2013 at 10:27 PM. Reason: edited drawing
tireiron: The shower is not vented in your drawing. The toilet flushing will pull water from the shower trap.
rcdba: If the vent is at 45*, that could work okay. However, 45* is much steeper than what you show. The toilet flange is normally 12" from the wall. If you take the vent off at 45*, the pipe will come up in the middle of the floor before reaching the outer wall (unless your plumbing was placed much lower than usual). What you can do is take your drawing and modify it a bit. That red line could be 2" coming from your lav drain. At that point, it is a wet vent and no longer has to be above 45*. You then tie in the shower to that line to vent it and then continue to the toilet line. Now, everything is vented at that point. Essentially, you would do something like tireiron shows, but the shower would connect to the lav line before the lav line connected into the 3"/4" line.
Good luck.
I would probably use 3" for the toilet line (unless I had 4" on hand). All the fittings under th floor will be either long radius elbows, wyes, combos (or wye + 1/8 bend). No santees under the floor. You will have a santee in the wall behind the lav with 2" going downward for the drain and 1.5" or 2" going up for the vent.
quote; Two inch drains (shower) can be 5 feet from their vent which in this case would be a wet vent at the 3
I am glad you prefaced your suggestion with the caveat that you are NOT a plumber, because in your drawing the shower does NOT have a vent so it is NOT 5' from the vent. You also cannot have a major fixture, such as toilet, flowing past the connection minor fixture, such as a shower, if the minor fixture does NOT have its own "dedicated" vent. If you run the shower to the lavatory drain, you have to make sure you do not create an "S" or "3/4 S" trap.
The real problem is that like many DIYers, you believe that anyone can be a plumber as long as they buy enough fittings and pipes then stick them together so the water flows downhill.

I stand corrected. As nukeman describes if you can connect the shower to the lav drain (within 5 feet) that would wet vent the shower using the lav. Might be able to do that in the small footprint you have.
If you are under IPC, you can run up to 8' on a 2" line before the vent. However, I would go with the UPC limit of 5'. With IPC, they figure 1/4" per ft slope, so after 8', you can dropped one full pipe diameter on a 2" line. The reason why this drop is important is that you will effectively develop an S-trap (or 3/4 S-trap..whatever you want to call it) if you exceed this distance. With UPC, they limit to 5' to give some margin is being away from making an S-trap. Also, since it isn't likely that your slope will be exactly 1/4" per foot, using the 5' limit gives some wiggle room.
Also, don't get hung up on a certain layout. Sometimes changing an angle of a drain or moving things around in the bathroom can make the plumbing easier and cleaner. Like I said eariler, it is difficult to say what is the best layout without being there. There may be a much better way to do it. It may be worth getting a plumber out there to lay everything out. Perhaps you can help with the grunt work (digging, etc.) to save some cash.
I thank all of you gentlemen for your help. I'm going with your suggestions to vent from the lavatory. It's a more ideal option because I have no space to add another wall anywhere.
I do have another quick question before I start roughing in this small bathroom. Is one able to pipe a toilet in the opposite direction of a sewer line and curve at some point to go the direction of the sewer. I would be using a combination of 1/4 bend, 1/8, and 1/16 bends. (or a long sweep?) Or should I run it straight back with a wye in the opposite direction. This bathroom will be under a set of stairs. A great way to use a dead space. Please look at the image.
Thanks again,
I would run the water closet drain directly towards the main line, and vent it through the lav. The shower drain can bend toward any of the 3 walls to be vented before it meets it's own wye connection to the main line.
If you place too many bends in any drain line, you will be required to add accessible clean-outs.

UFC 102 Play by Play with Randy Couture vs. Nogueira, Thiago Silva vs. Keith Jardine and more...
Randy Couture vs. Rodrigo Nogueira
Rd 1
Nogueira and Couture trade shots, on the feet and Nogueira flops to guard but Couture stand up out of it and wants nothing to do with the ground. Nogueira gets dropped by a Nogueira right hand and Nogueira drops into the ground and wraps up a Darce choke but Couture survives. Both fighters are swinging for the fences and both fighters are landing and Nogueria looks like he has a cut over his left eye. Couture works the dirty boxing against the cage, and Nogueira looks like he is just holding on for the end of the round. 10-9 Nogueira.
Rd 2
Couture goes to work from behind his jab but Nogueira lands a hook that stunned Couture and the Natural goes for a takedown, fights off a guillotine choke and goes to work on the ground and pound. He is landing some short elbows on the ground but Nogueira fights his way to a reversal right into mount. Couture gets the half guard but Couture is in trouble. Nogueira is mounted and stuck in a arm triangle. Couture escapes but he is still mounted and in trouble. Couture amazingly fights his way bak to the feet from the mount and goes to work on the feet. Coutue lands a nice left hook, Nogueiara lands a leg kick and both fighters are in a dog fight. 10-9 Nogueria.
Rd 3
Couture looks banged up and the more tired of the two. Nogueira drops Couture and fires off a dozen or so hammerfists but Mario Yamasaki doesn't step in to stop the fight but Nogueira moves to side control. Couture is in big trouble pinning him agaisnt the cage. Couture is cut and looks defeated on the ground. Couture tries to get back to his feet and Nogueira has the back of Couture and works for a choke. Couture amazingly gets out of there again and goes to work from the ground and pound. With only one minute left it looks like Couture will lose a decision. Rodrigo Nogueira takes the Unanimous Decision after three rounds.
Thiago Silva vs. Keith Jardine
Jardine comes out aggresive firing a combination and lands a nice leg kick. Jardine lands a body kick and slips, and Silva goes onto the ground and goes to work on the ground. Jardine pulls off a nice sweep and gets back to his feet and Silva goes back to walking him down. Thiago Silva lands a left hook that drops Jardine, and Silva jumps and and dropped a couple of more punches that had Jardine out and Herb Dean jumps in to save him at 1:35 of round one.
Chris Leben vs. Jake Rosholt
Rd 1
Roshalt lands some nice early leg kicks but both fighters look like there are feeling each other out. Roshalt fires a flying knee that lands but Chris Leben takes the fight to the ground but Roshalt was able to get back to his feet. Roshalt takes the fight to the ground off an upper body tie up and although Chris is abl to get back to his feet he eats punches and knees n his way back up. Interesting round, but it looked to me like Roshalt had the slight advantage. 10-9
Rohshalt lands a nice left hand but Chris Leben takes the punch and lands a left hand of his own after ducking a head kick and takes the fight to the mat. Leben is going to work on the ground but isn't able to do any significant damage and Roshalt is just hanging on for the stand up. Referee Yves Lavigne stands the fight up, and Roshalt works on the legs but Leben fires a head kick that is blocked but follows up with a left hand that gets through. Roshalt fires off a combination and scoops the legs for a takedown. Chris Leben finishes with a flurry. 10-9 Leben
Roshalt gets the fight to the mat and gets the full mount. He lands some very good shots takes the back and took a arm triangle. Leben doesnt tap and gets choked out unconscious. Impressive victory for Leben at 1:20 of round 3.
Nathan Marquardt vs. Demian Maia
Nate Marquardt knocks out Demian Maia with a right hand that countered a leg kick and the fight is over at 21 seconds of the first round.
Aaron Simpson over Ed Herman TKO injury Rd 2
Nice exchanges by both fighters and Simpson eventually grabs a hold of Herman and lifts him into the air and drops a beautifly takedown. Herman is eaing some leg kicks while he is on his back, but Herman lands some nice leg kicks that wobbled him. Simpson fires off a three-punch combination that lands and drops him. Simpson goes right to the ground and and drops some bombs on Herman who is in major trouble. Herman gets back to his feet and lands a nice punch but gets punched and taken down again and on his way to the ground he looks like he hurt his left knee. He screamed and grabbed his left knee and limped to his corner but still came out for the second round.
Herman goes for a right body kick and in the midst of a kick his knee pops out fell to the mat before Lavigne stepped in to stop the fight at 17 second of round 2.

Selective storm dumps two inches of hail, knocks trees in some towns, spares others
Cornwall fire may have been started by lightning
NORTHWEST CORNER [Dash] An early summer-style storm seemed to pick and choose when and where it wanted to strike Tuesday.
In Canaan, Fire Chief Lee Baldwin had 12 firefighters ready to respond, but there was never a call. He was home by 8 p.m.

Hello all. I am new to the crunchbang world. I have been using Linux Mint for sometime on my desktop, but I have had trouble finding a good distro for my somewhat archaic laptop. It is an old box, but has updated RAM and an SSD. But anyways I tried a lot and of the few that worked crunchbang was my favorite. And it is growing on me more and more. Linux Mint will always hold a special place in heart as my first real Linux experience, but the minimalist and lightweight approach from crunchbang is a sleek distro that I feel has made me a much better user. Well anyways that is a little about me. I will see you all on the forum floors.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The finest Le Gay produced since the post World War II era, the 2005 even eclipses the fabulous 1982 and 1989. This inky/purple-hued effort reflects the commitment of proprietress Catherine Pere-Verge. An extraordinary perfume of blueberries, blackberries, flowers, truffles, and a touch of steely..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2005 Clos l'Eglise gives the brilliant 2001, 2000, and1998 a run for their money. Time will tell if it eventually eclipses those three sensational efforts. A huge, sweet nose of creme brulee intermixed with black cherry liqueur, blackberries, tar, caramel, and mocha/coffee soars from the glass..
Cellar/Tasting Notes It boasts an inky/blue/purple hue along with notes of incense, spring flowers, roasted espresso, chocolate, licorice, blackberries and blueberries. Even though it is aged in 100% oak, the wood is virtually non-existent... The wine exhibits a flawless integration of acidity, alcohol and tannin. This..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc, the 2009 Pape Clement is not as dense or provocative as the 2005, but it is a worthy competitor. Tighter and more muscular than the 2005, the 2009 reveals an opaque purple color along with notes of graphite, blueberries, and..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The opaque purple-hued 2006- only 40% of the crop made it into the final blend- exhibits a personality that mimics the superb 1996. Classic aromas of sweet black raspberries, kirsch, cassis, and subtle toasty oak are followed by a full-bodied, concentrated wine displaying moderately high tannin...
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The blend for the 2009 Pichon Lalande is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, somewhat unusual at this estate which usually has more Merlot in the blend. As stated previously, the Cabernet Sauvignon reached levels of ripeness and intensity of flavor in 2009 never seen before in Bordeaux! The final..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Initially the wine is all firm tannins, but then there is a pure line of fresh black fruits that comes through, with cranberry tannins and blackberry jamminess. Above it all, is succulent richness and clear acidity. A beautifully shaped wine."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Seven years ago I said this was a monumental wine, and at two different recent tastings, it was a true star of the vintage. Its stunning dark plum color offers up notes of caramelized red and black fruits, toffee, smoke, Asian plum sauce, sweet cherries, chocolate, and espresso. Its spectacular..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This tiny, 5-acre vineyard with nearly 50-year old vines produces only 4,000 bottles from a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. The broodingly tannic, backward 2006 is remarkably concentrated, pure, and deep. It is an amazing tour de force in winemaking, but like nearly all the Perse..

Today marks my final day at SC Magazine after more than 7-1/2 years.
Ideas are needed on ways to improve the public's perception of computer security hackers who have no malicious intentions.
An investigative report shows the Obama administration's insider threat program is far more expansive, and troubling, than even critics had thought.
The leaks from NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden reveal a massive global effort by the U.S. government to hack various entities, including civilian targets, actions that could lead to unintended consequences.
The U.S. government is sending a clear message: We won't tolerate secrets coming to light.
Referencing the Boston bombings as terrorism prompted an unprecedented manhunt for the suspects that included a citywide lockdown. What would a similar scene have looked like on the internet?
The security researcher and self-proclaimed internet troll earned 41 months behind bars Monday for his role in using a script to retrieve data on roughly 120,000 Apple iPad users from a public web server.
Whistleblowing organizations like WikiLeaks and accused hacktivists like Hammond are not foreign spies lusting to plunder intellectual property from U.S. corporations and government agencies in order to profit and gain a competitive advantage.
The FBI and DoJ are targeting high-level U.S. officials in hopes of learning who released classified information about Stuxnet to the press. What the government is not doing is publicly explaining why it launched Stuxnet.
Hopefully the death of Aaron Swartz will lead to awareness and changes that prevents a future genius, who has so much more to offer internet users across the world, from a suicide by hanging.

Customize your experience by selecting your role:
Owner, Property Manager, or Traveler
We are 3 weeks out until our 10 day vacation to Florida. The owner has contacted me that there will be a new owner and new management company. She told me that everything will remain the same. She will give me the new owners info ASAP. But I am nervous that the new owners will not abide by our original reservation. Has this ever happened to anyone? All money has been paid. Should I purchase insurance? Please reassure me.
This has not happened to me, but I would definitely want the new owner's contact information right away so that you can follow up with them. In a residential rental or lease, the contracts in effect at the time of sale are enforceable, so hopefully it is the case here too.
Since it sounds like it will still be a vacation rental, you should be fine as long as you make contact with the new owner ASAP.
Good luck, and perhaps report back?
I think that the private owner you dealt with...and the new property management company owes you an assurance - in writing - that your contract will be upheld, in full {meaning - you'll get that particular condo unit, as well}.
If I were buying that unit, I would want to go ahead and make contact with the upcoming renters to put their minds at ease. I would also want the seller to give me all the executed rental agreements.
I also think the original poster should have access to that exact unit or their choice of another, only if they want it.
The sale of this unit should have absolutely no impact on this renter's vacation. The upcoming rentals should be part of the disclosure to the seller and a good realtor will know the law on this situation, especially in a resort community. I would think that the executed rental agreements would be part of the disclosure.
I hope that's how it plays out for the original poster, and I hope we hear back with positive news!
When we purchased our vacation rental last June, it was being rented by a management company. By law, we were required to honor three months of rental contracts. Check with your state. I think most states have similar laws. They should still honor the contract.
