MLB Notebook: Aramis impresses with XBH
On the final day of the 1921 regular season, Yankees outfielder Babe Ruth went 2-for-4 and hit his 59th home run to help New York to a 7-6 victory against the Red Sox. With the homer, Ruth completed the year with 119 extra-base hits in 693 plate appearances. No other player has had as many extra-base hits in a season or has seen a greater percentage of his plate appearances conclude with a hit going for extra bases.Ruth's extra-base-hit percentage (extra-base hits/plate appearances) of 17.172 truly outdistances the competition, with the second-highest percentage for any player qualifying for the batting title standing at 16.323, courtesy of outfielder Albert Belle in 1995 (103 extra-base hits in 631 plate appearances). First baseman Lou Gehrig owns the third-highest mark, with 117 extra-base hits in 717 appearances in '27 for a percentage of 16.318. Continuing down the list for all players since 1893, one doesn't find a full-time third baseman enter the picture until more than 130 seasons have gone by, with Matt Williams' percentage in 1994 (12.836) holding up as the top mark for the position. The second-highest percentage authored by a hot-corner hitter came in 1980, when George Brett produced 66 extra-base hits in 515 plate appearances (12.816). Both of these seasons are well known, with Williams' being remembered for his abbreviated pursuit of the all-time home run record (when the strike-shortened season ended in '94, he was, by games, just a shade behind the pace established by Roger Maris in 1961), and Brett's year is fondly recalled as one in which he flirted with the magical .400 batting mark before finishing at .390.
Top extra-base-hit percentages for third baseman since 1893
|Matt Williams
|George Brett
|Aramis Ramirez
|Eddie Mathews
|Troy Glaus
|Vinny Castilla
|Chipper Jones
|Mike Schmidt
|Eric Chavez
|Chipper Jones
The third-highest percentage for a third baseman might come as a bit of a surprise, for it was not compiled by Mike Schmidt when he hit 48 homers in 1980, Chipper Jones in his 87 extra-base-hit season in '99, Alex Rodriguez when he clubbed 54 homers in 2007, or even from Al Rosen when he came within a whisker of capturing the Triple Crown in '53; instead, the author of the third-highest percentage did his work just this past season for the Brewers.With three triples, 27 home runs and a league-leading 50 doubles in 2012, Aramis Ramirez had a total of 80 extra-base hits (which tied for the National League lead with his teammate Ryan Braun) in 630 plate appearances, for a percentage of 12.698. Beyond Ramirez's historic rate of producing extra-base hits during the 2012 season, the ninth-place finisher in the NL MVP Award voting (the highest spot of his career) also managed some other noteworthy accomplishments: • Becoming the ninth third baseman in the past 50 seasons to lead his league in two-base hits.
• Becoming the seventh third baseman in history to accumulate at least 50 doubles in a season.• Standing out as one of 10 third basemen since 1901 to lead the league in extra-base hits. The others: Schmidt (1975, '76, '80, '81, '86), Heinie Zimmerman ('12), Rosen ('53), Dick Allen ('64), Tommy Harper ('70), Sal Bando ('73), Graig Nettles ('76), Brett ('79) and Miguel Cabrera (2012).
• Joining Troy Glaus as the only third baseman in history to have multiple seasons with at least 80 extra-base hits (Ramirez also had 80 in 2006).• Joining Zimmerman in 1912 and Bando in '73 as the only third basemen since 1901 to lead their league in doubles and extra-base hits in the same year. Looking back at the list of the top 10 extra-base hit percentages for a third baseman since 1893, it's interesting to note the clusters of performances, with six of the 10 occurring since 1999 and all but one taking place since 1980. The outlier in this perspective is Eddie Mathews' mark of 12.628 from 1953. When he began his second Major League season in 1953, Mathews was just 21 years and 182 days old, and he was set to embark on what would turn out to be an historic year for the position. The brilliance can be identified in a number of categories:
• His 47 home runs. Before Mathews, the previous high for a third baseman had been Rosen's 37 in 1950 (Rosen had 43 in '53). No other third baseman would match Mathews' total until Schmidt hit 48 in '80.• His 86 extra-base hits. Before Mathews in 1953, the best mark for a third baseman had been 77 by Odell Hale in '36. No other player at the position would top Mathews until Jones had 87 in '99, and Mathews' total is still the second highest for the position. • His extra-base hit percentage of 12.628, surpassing the previous high since 1893 for a third baseman established by Bill Joyce in '94 (12.200). • His 171 OPS+. While not otherworldly for a third baseman (that same season, Rosen posted a 180 while manning the hot corner for the Indians), it was -- and is -- mind boggling for a player his age. Mathews' 171 is tied with Mike Trout in 2012 for the second highest since 1893 for any player in his age-21 or younger season. Only Jimmie Foxx -- with a 173 in 1929 -- owns a higher mark for that group.
If a portion of the allure of Mathews' season in 1953 resides in his age, that heading can also be applied to Ramirez in 2012. Playing in his age-34 season, Ramirez posted the second-highest OPS+ of his career (and the fourth highest since 1893 for any third baseman in that age season), collected 308 total bases (the most for a third baseman in his age-34 season), became just the second player (after first baseman George Burns in 1927) to collect as many as 50 doubles in an age-34 season and compiled the sixth-most extra-base hits for any player at any position in his age-34 campaign.
In addition to joining Honus Wagner in 1908 and Dave Parker in '85 as the only players since 1901 to be in their age-34 season and lead the league in both doubles and extra-base hits, Ramirez's 12.698 extra-base hit percentage is the fifth highest since 1901 for any qualifying player in his age-34 season, behind marks from Jim Edmonds (2004), Mark McGwire (1998), Ruth ('29) and Tris Speaker ('22). It was, undoubtedly, a special year for the Brewers' third baseman, and one of the highlights of the '12 season.

These guys just missed the business end of a high-flying barracuda, one of the toothiest critters in the sea.

In any case, the slow-mo portion of this video showing the fish erupting from the water is particularly cool – that cuda had no idea the boat was there!

When you see Happy, you just have to smile. He's a little pup with a big personality and a zest for life. He has a great temperament and just wants to play, love, and have a family to call his own. Mutts Matter named him Hapsburg, or "Happy" for short, because he's always smiling, wagging his tail, and excited to see you. We think Happy is some type of longhaired Chihuahua mix, and he's still a young, energetic pup at less than two years old. He only weighs ten pounds, and has a silky, golden coat and a funny little underbite that makes him stand out from the pack.
We don't know a lot about Happy's background because he was picked up as a stray. He's being fostered by first-time foster dad, Matt, who, in the process of looking to adopt a dog, learned about fostering and wanted to make a difference. Matt describes Happy as playful like a puppy, and a sweet, energetic dog who always wants to be by near his person. Matt recounted his first week with Happy saying, "he was just so excited to be here. When I would roll over in bed he'd come running in to greet me, offering up his new prized ball." Matt quickly learned that Happy liked to play fetch. Happy would cheerfully grab anything Matt would toss on the floor and bring it back to him, whether it was toys, towels, or clothes – you name it, and Happy was on the job. He realized that he didn't need Happy to fetch everything in the house, so Matt quickly taught him the word "no" and it has been smooth sailing ever since.
Happy's a very social dog who likes greeting new guests when they come to the house and enjoys social outings. He loves other dogs too and is fearless at the dog park, running and playing with the big pups, and he's been known to play keep-away with his Rottweiler and German shepherd buddies. He's always up for playing but keeps all his toys inventoried and accounted for. He even knows their different names. When Matt asks for a bone or a ball, Happy will bring the requested item right to him. He's self-sufficient and can entertain himself, swatting his ball across the room to chase it or sneaking up like a ninja to pounce on his bone. He's an entertaining little guy.
Matt describes Happy as an easy dog who is very smart and learns quickly. He's potty-trained, walks great on a leash, and loves to greet the local pups on his daily walks. He already knows several commands, like "sit," "stay," "come," "bye-bye," and will even let Matt know when needs to go out for a potty break. He is crate-trained, but Matt only used the crate for a few days until he knew he could trust Happy. Matt goes to work every day and Happy watches the house, never getting into trouble or making a mess.
Even though playtime is his passion, Happy does know how to relax and is very attentive to his people. When Matt is ready to settle down or go to bed, you'll find Happy contently curled up by his feet. He loves praise and is a very affectionate pup. When you tell him he's a good boy, his face lights up with a big smile, and he's content just to be near you. Happy's favorite thing in the world is to lay by your side and score a belly rub, while he simultaneously chews on his bone.
Happy would do well in almost any home, but would be best with an active family who will take him on walks, fulfill his social calendar and play with him. He loves playmates of all kinds, and would do great in a home with kids, dogs, and is good with cats too.
How could you not want this dog? Add a little fun and Happy-ness to your life.
To learn more about Happy, go to the Mutts Matter Adoption Page and fill out an application, or you can contact Suzanne at email@example.com.

hi, i got the phone two weeks ago and everything was working fine.
recently every now and then the touchscreen decides to stop working. (the keypad continues to work)
i did the following:
- removed SD card (2gb) and used the phone without it to check if the problem occurs again.
- soft reset of settings
- checked for software updates, no updates found (5.65)
- even without new updates i used nokia update manager to re-install the current firmware
- changed sim card
none of the above helped.
the other thing i noticed is that this issue doesn't have a specific pattern. this 'disabling' of the touchscreen occured when:
- answering the phone while being locked. (i couldn't unlock afterwards)
- receiving messages while viewing inbox
- receiving message while calling
- after leaving the phone for a long period of time.
- right after using bluetooth transfer
and more that i cant really remember right now.
i dont know if we should assume that it's not some specific application or style of use that causes this problem.
could this be a hardware problem? how could it be a hardware problem if at any other time the screen functions perfectly.
my gut feeling says that it's the touchscreen ''service'' (software) that fails.
Solved! Go to Solution.
08-04-2011 12:26
Doesn't anyone else want to post something regarding this subject?
It happens on my friends X3-01 as well but the difference is that after approximately 5 minutes the screen starts working again. On my C3-01 you have to remove the battery so that I can switch the phone on again.
Someone please help.
11-04-2011 17:06
I checked this issue from the C3-01 unit.
I recommend that it is best to visit Nokia Care Point near to your location.
You can find the local information on top of this page "contact us".
Nokia care point will check and decide what to do.
Possibly changing the touch module to a new one.
15-04-2011 23:12
I have exactly same problem. I have been using the C3-01 for 2 months or a little more. Everything worked smart and clear. Suddenly touch screen stopped responding and this was changing. It looks like it is software based - sometimes touch is working nice (as at the beginning) but sometimes I cannot click a selection. I tried to recalibrate touch screen but I was not able to reach desired menu item.
I tried upgrade to v6 firmware, it is now sitting in my device. But the only way before I can call someone is to remove battery and start phone. I switched off PIN requirement so I am able to dial from the phone.
Upgrade did not reach its end and same happened to restore now. But this is a different topic.
I am working from Win7.
19-04-2011 11:07
finally someone posted with the same problem.
i dont understand why no one from OFFICIAL NOKIA isn't commenting on this issue.
i will try to update to v6 and will let you know as well.
11-05-2011 5:48
Hi all. Even me too facing the exact issue on my nokia C3-01.
11-05-2011 11:46
I also experienced the same problem.
12-05-2011 8:45
There is a comment from Nokia, see the comment made by Mahayv
27-05-2011 10:38
i doubt if mahayv is a technical expert. i noticed his posts are always the same and always redirecting users to a nokia care point.
anyway, the problem is very common it seems and there is no official update on this.
it must be a software problem so i hope the update comes out!
i hope nokia solves this soon.
27-05-2011 11:03
Thanks for your comment.
I am afraid you are not right in this issue.
I checked with the C3-01 unit and informed me that this is related to the display issue not the sw issue.
That is the reason i recommend you to visit to the Nokia Care Points.
I hope this makes it clear.
26-06-2011 6:44
Hi all,
I am from India, i have purchased C3-01 in the month of April. I am having exactly same problem.
The touchscreen stops working and i cannot even unlock the phone (as i have given PIN request while unlocking).
I'll go to Nokia Care Point, but the problem with them is they take 2 weeks to check your phone, next 2 weeks to get the solution, then few days to get the new part that needs to be replaced and finally after fighting with them they return your cell and you are not sure that it will work perfectly or not. I am really irritated with the service they provide. I hope they have developed much since i visit them last time.
18-07-2011 23:16
The touchscreen stops working and i cannot even unlock the phone. Only numeric keys are working...... I am from Karachi, I have purchased C3-01 in the month of April. I am having exactly same problem.
27-08-2011 21:24
I too have had similar problems with this phone. One of my main worries with a touch screen was the likelihood of the screen devekiping a fault and the other was the impact that a touchscreen woudl have on a battery.
I have used the C3-01 with almost no issues until recently.
There were sporadic moments when the screen would scroll down almost of its own accord when viewing web pages or scrolling though a list of names in your contacts. A quick gesture of the your finger on teh screen normaky stopped the scrolling happening but releasing the touch coudl mean that it would continue scrolling. This proved an incovience when it happened but it was something that didnt happen that often.
Recently I started finding that when I wanted to touch the part of teh screen nearest the bottom of the screen that it would be difficult to get a response at times. Such as scrolling back by pressing the 'back' button on the phone when on a webpage. This would result in another part of the screen responding other than the area that was being touched.
More recently there is a touch cursor that is visible. Almost like a circle made of broken lines. This can sometimes indicate that a different part of the screen registers to having been pressed other than the part which has been touched. If on the home screen for example, I find that I might want to access the menu. So I press the menu button on the screen. Instead, one of the shortcut buttons just above them are selected. In thsi case thsi is normally the nokia chat option or the message editor. In other cases the keypad does not respond which would appear to be confirmed by not feelinga vinrating response when touching the screen. Very ver unusually there are odd occasions that the bottom part of teh screen respons as it should.
I am now left in most cases of not being able to unlock the phone. It seems a shame that the unlock button on the side doesnt also act as an unlocking button. It is also a shame that there isnt another key that woudl access the menu and its also annoying that there is another method to scroll the screen. The volume button could have doubled as a scrolling button for example.
If the slide to unlock part was at a different of the screen I may have been able to do that to, Perhaps it should respond to any sliding motion and not just be confined to the buttom most part.
More importantly if there was the use of buttons to do the job of the touchscreen there would be no issue that prevents the use of the phone.
My problems with this phone have deteriated quite qucikly over the last few days.
I have tried to see if there is a way to factory reset the phone although I cant access it. I have also tried to update the firmware and this has not resolved the issue. I have recalibrated the screen numerous times when I have been able. Sometimes this appears to have a slight improvement but in most cases its still futile.
You should not have to switch a phone and start it up 4 times to try and get a sniff of teh phoen even slightly working the way it should.
I am very disappointed in this and I am very disappointed to see that there appears to be a lot of faulty C3-01 touchscreens or others for that matter,
I also really disliek the fact that the C3-01 doesn't multitasking.
I have put this up so that other people out there don't necessarily feel they are alone.
28-08-2011 18:55 - edited 28-08-2011 19:01
Hi. I'm from Spain and I have the same problem.
I've been really happy with the C3-01 since I bought it (march-april on this year). But yesterday I started to be unable to use the touchscreen. I can't unlock my mobile phone most of times.
I've tried everything: calibrate the screen, installed the new software... no way.
But I'm sure it looks a software problem, clearily: the touchscreen works well sometimes, and other times is really crazy and I can do nothing. If it was a screen problem it would never work, not sometimes. And lots of users with the same problem, if it was a bad using it wouldn't happen.
I think Nokia should try to see it, because if it is a software problem shops won't give us any solution. ¿Change the touchscreen? I can buy a new mobile phone cheaper than repairing the C3-01.
Mahayv: Try to update the screen software...
29-08-2011 6:41
I have passed these comments on to the C3-01 phone unit for improving the issue.
Lets hope the best.
20-10-2011 18:30
I also have the problem of the touchscreen freezing on my c3-01. This happens nine times out of ten after i have made a call. I have updated to current software but the problem persists.
25-10-2011 7:07
I also got the same problem! the touch screen stopped with no reason! I am going to return it! and I dont buy the same model again!, the help of Nokia to this topic is unacceptable since it is a common problem!

I had also the same problem yesterday, I removed the battery, SIM and Memory card, wait for long time as it was not worked for short time , I kept the battery in charge after that put the set ON, yes now it is working…, But I am in doubt It may happen again! Nokia should find solution.

Surprise, surprise, I have the same problem... but I bet I can trump you all!! lol
I received my c3-01 last month, ...and the touchscreen stopped working within 12 hours!! Phoned the company i got it from (using a landline! lol) and after a bit of a battle, I convinced them that instead of me sending it back to wait and get it back or get a new one, that after that short amount of time I should just get a new model. It was sent through and worked fine... until tonight.
However, regarding the first one I received, I got an email a few days after from the phone company asking what the issue was exactly, as the couldn't find a fault. Told them and they seemed happy and would just send it back to Nokia, no problem for me or them.
Knowing this, I rationalised that the reason the first one may have worked when it got back to the supplier was that the battery had been sitting out of the phone on the journey back. So I took the battery out of mine, left it about an hour and it's working again now. So that's what I recommend to others to try to get it working again, potentially. The worst thing is that because of the slide lock, once it goes, you cannot get into the phone at all... cos you can't unlock the little tinker! Take the battery out and back in, and if it still isn't working, you can't press 'ok' if you've enabled the phone lock, so you're screwed either way!
I DO agree though that having read this thread, and others like it all over the net after the first incident last month, that there is a recurring issue with this phone that needs to be resolved and Nokia aren't obviously apparently doing much about it.
Love my nokias, but not impressed with this one at the mo.
Does anyone know where I can get a list of what problems/glitches/bugs the various software updates relate to and what they're fixing? Once I got it working again I updated it and it jumped from V06.00 to V06.05, but I don't know what it's changed??

For the most important people in the world
Kids have a lot of work to do – like developing who they are, discovering the world and then starting their journey to independence. So having the right things at home can make it a little easier. From the day you bring them home until they're almost all grown up, our children's furniture will help you turn your home into the best possible playground.
Rooms for making great childhood memories
Feel good cleaning
Toy collections have a tendency to get out of control – in no time. Make a game of sorting toys to keep, donate or give to little sister or brother. If your little one decides which toys to say goodbye to, they'll be fewer tears and more smiles.See more children's storage furniture
Don't miss an inch
Getting your little one to stand up straight and hold still can be a challenge. Get a little help from a few fantasy friends with ROKNÄS height chart.See more babySee more children 3-7
Adventures await
These soft toys do more than just look cute. They encourage imagination and play – two very important things for your kids.
Why we do what we do at Children's IKEA
Because we know that playing is learning for life. Sleep is growing for life. Spending time with family and friends is the most important thing. And every moment counts. That's why we make furniture and toys with these basic ideas in mind.
We will never grow up
Every product you'll find at Children's IKEA has been developed from a child's perspective. That's why the best view of our mobiles is from below. And why we don't make a single piece of kids' furniture that can't also make a great mountain, rocket ship or submarine.
We think a lot about safety
We know that children don't think about safety when playing – so we do. At Children's IKEA we follow the strictest laws and standards in the world, sometimes even making our own tougher ones. Because we have zero tolerance for any safety or health risks in our products.
Knowledge is our starting point
We don't have a ton of children's products – we have the most important ones. That's because we've worked with the world's leading child experts (and children themselves) to design smart products that are both lots of fun to play with and contribute to your child's development.

Dearest reader: I'd just like to let you know that I intend to kill you.
Calling 911 yet? Why not? I just threatened your life! If not a police call, then my threat at least merits a blog post, right?
Just about every week, it seems there's a story about a celebrity, athlete or politician receiving death threats from morons on Twitter. The media often treat these frivolous incidents like they're a fatwa on Salman Rushdie. The latest example: New York Giants running back Brandon Jacobs, for performing poorly on fantasy football teams. (Fitting that there be fantasy threats for a fantasy sport.)
The stories often give the impression that this is some kind of shocking event for which we should pity the "victims," but anyone who's spent 10 minutes online knows that these assertions are entirely toothless.
What's surprising isn't that death threats on Twitter are happening, but rather that the media seem to be covering them more and more frequently. It's one thing if public figures are actually being hunted down and attacked by @Chad_Bro697 on the regular, but exactly 0.00 percent of these celebrity threats have even resulted in an assault. It's like reading regularly that a meteor could in fact crush Mandy Patinkin today.
Erin Andrews, Ted Cruz, Selena Gomez, pretty much every NFL player . . . They've all been in harm's way of these entirely harmless threats, followed by handwringing coverage in prominent places like Yahoo, The Washington Post, and Mashable. Anna Gunn made a big note in her New York Times op-ed about receiving death tweets for her role as Skyler White in "Breaking Bad." Type the name of any public figure and "death threat" into Google or "kill" into Twitter. There's a good chance you won't be disappointed - except for, well, with humanity.
So how do we stop this trend of pointless reporting? There really aren't any clear solutions. There will always be a dark corner of the Internet, so you can't stop the source. And you can't tell websites to stop publishing these stories, because they surely generate boatloads of mindless page views. Maybe the solution is to just let the Internet continue to be the Internet, and people will eventually grow bored of this "news." Or perhaps we should just send death tweets to the writers who report on these occurrences. It seems like they take these threats rather seriously.

|Olympia, WA
|Eastern Washington
|Years played
|2012, 4th round, 40th pick by Cowboys
NFC East training-camp reports
In the fifth part of our series of training-camp reports, we look at NFC East teams, including a Redskins club with newcomer Donovan McNabb at the helm.
Cowboys' Bryant becomes first first-rounder to agree to terms
Dez Bryant became the first draft choice from the 2010 first round to agree to terms on a contract, a reported five-year deal with the Cowboys.
NFC East sleepers few and far between
The NFC East stands as one of the toughest divisions, top to bottom, and there are not a lot of quality sleeper candidates with so many established stars.
Cowboys' Spears must work to keep job
Cowboys DE Marcus Spears' name was floated around the NFL draft in trade talks, and he could be fighting DEs Stephen Bowen and Jason Hatcher to keep his starting job.
Unga, Price-Brent selected in supplemental draft
Two of the four players available in the supplemental draft were selected in the seventh round, as the Bears nabbed Brigham Young RB Harvey Unga and the Cowboys selected Illinois DT Josh Price-Brent.
Cowboys' Ratliff says best yet to come
Cowboys NT Jay Ratliff was named to the Pro Bowl in 2008 and '09 and was a PFW/PFWA All-NFC selection in '09, but he says he feels he hasn't reached his potential yet.
Cowboys ILB Williams faces crowded situation
Following the drafting of LB Sean Lee in Round Two this year, ILB Jason Williams' place on the Cowboys' roster is in doubt.
Cowboys WR Austin signs tender
Cowboys WR Miles Austin signed his restricted free-agent tender Friday, with an eye on reaching a long-term agreement with the team before the start of the season.
Cowboys keeping eye on Bryant's conditioning
The Cowboys knew when they drafted WR Dez Bryant that they were getting a potential steal with the 24th pick in the draft, but also a player that came with serious questions.
Cowboys' Jones reverses field on Barber
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones previously had speculated publicly that RB Marion Barber might be better suited in a reserve role, but Jones hinted that Barber might remain a starter.
Cowboys, Rams make Barron-for-Carpenter deal official
The Rams and Cowboys made official a trade that had been in the works for nearly a week, sending LB Bobby Carpenter to St. Louis and OT Alex Barron to Dallas in a swap of failed former first-round picks.
Cowboys considering Carpenter-for-Barron deal
Jerry Jones had said that the team would explore adding depth at a few positions, including the offensive line, and now the Cowboys are discussing a trade for Rams OT Alex Barron.
Report: Barron-Carpenter trade nearing completion
A trade in which the Rams would send OT Alex Barron to the Cowboys for LB Bobby Carpenter is expected to be finalized Monday, according to NFL Network.
Vets feeling heat with rookies on board
The draft is in the rearview mirror, but here are five veteran players who could be looking over their shoulders with rookies gunning for their jobs.
2010 draft choices by team: Cowboys
Here are the players who were chosen by the Dallas Cowboys in the 2010 NFL draft.

Whether you're a sports aficionado or not, you probably know that the Winter Olympics begins this week. Top athletes will be competing for Gold in Sochi, Russia. Well, we love sports here in the ESL offices but we love home design more.
Which is why we want to show you how to win gold with your home design since, like us, you probably lack the skills to win Olympic gold.
Glitz Filbert Espresso 33-Inch-H Arm Chair / Besa Pogo Collection Gold Pendant
For starters.... Set the mood with gold upholstery on a beautiful modern piece of furniture and then highlight it with a gold pendant, preferably in the shape of an Olympic ring.
Eleganza Starburst Gold Leaf 22-Inch-H Wall Mirror / Regina-Andrew Gilded 49" Golden Sconce
We couldn't help but select this gold pendant that resembles the Olympic flame! And no room should go without a gold starburst mirror in our opinion! Modern mirrors with luxury styling are a great way to bring home the gold...
Zena Gold Leaf 72-Inch-H Arteriors Home Room Screen / Worchester Gold 33 1/2-Inch-H Arteriors Home Console Table
Since we've already included a bold mirror, gold-upholstered chair and a flaming hot wall sconce, let's keep things minimal with the gold furniture. This gold "Olympic ring" screen will add vertical design to the space without being too heavy. The gold-framed console is a great place to add some color on the shelves or just simple gold and white accessories that will compliment the room.
Westoria Brass 7 3/4-Inch-H Bulova Tabletop Clock / Dakota Gold and Black Glass 20-Inch-H End Table
Lastly, you need a distinctive accent table to pair with your gold chair and this gold clock is a beautiful accessory to top off this gold home design.

Designing a home is about recreating a feeling. Today I want to bring home the beach by recreating the calm, beachy feeling--like the kind of feeling that you get when your toes are in the warm sand, you are lying under the shade of gently swaying leaves, your fingers are brushing through the cool, clear sea waters.
To get the look and feeling of the beach in your home bring in objects, art, furniture and lighting that is made from natural materials like a mirror made of driftwood, pendant lights made of shells that sway in the breeze, shades made of seagrass, elements in granite, raffia and cotton. Natural materials give a home an earthy and rustic feel.
By keeping a beachy color palette of natural whites, creams with hints of soft blues and sea greens, the home maintains a clean and cool feeling. The elements of brass, gold and crystal in the mix are like the glimmers in the ocean, the shiny abalone and glistening shells. The juxtaposition of the rustic elements with the shiny elements brings the same balance of relaxation and excitement of the beach into the home.
Add the right greenery (there's nothing like a pony-tail palm to make a space feel beachy-keen) and you're ready to turn even the most urban dwelling into a beach bungalow.
Get the look above:
White Faux Nautilus Shell with Tan Shade Table Lamp, Dolce Capiz Shell 11 1/2-Inch-H Mini Pendant Light , Charlotte Square 18-Inch-W Accent Table, Regatta Cupertino Modern Currey and Company Pendant Light, Crystorama Palla 12" Wide Antique Silver Wall Sconce, Currey And Company Beachhead 21" Square Driftwood Mirror,Bachelor 1-Drawer Driftwood 24-Inch-W TV Table, Brushed Nickel Seagrass Giclee 5 1/2-Inch-H Pendant, Fluted Ball Sea Glass Jamie Young Table Lamp, Laguna Sahara Dark Wood 38-Inch-H Club Chair, Global Bazaar Artista Blue and Grey Modern Throw Pillow, Brass Desk Arc Lamp, Morocco Blue Square 18-Inch Designer Pillow

Wall & Deco introduces an incredible new collection of of outdoor wallpaper called OUT-Outdoor Unconventional Texture. The visual solutions for exterior decoration will blow your mind. Graffiti and street art have greatly influenced the design culture in the last few years and now Wall & Deco has taken this concept to the next level and combined it with innovative technology to create something completely unexpected.
There are so many expressive possibilities which make these bold and graphic outdoor wallpapers an architects dream! Adding color and graphic wall murals into urban settings makes for happy places and it actually brings inspiration to communities. Goodbye outdoor tile, hello outdoor wallpaper! Just take a look at some of the amazing exterior applications.
BauHaus: This colorful graphic pattern creates such a bold contrast with the natural environment. Imagine how this could light up at night with the use of modern up lighting.
Kefia: The Houndstooth pattern adds sophistication to this modern architecture. Pair it with colorful outdoor chairs and let the fun begin!
Tokio Stripes: Black and white patterns are a bold, yet classic statement. Modern outdoor furniture in neutral tones helps maintain balance and doesn't compete with this bold pattern.
Pop Pop Pop: No repeat on this pop wall mural. Just look at how the image seems transparent and you can still see the "wall" behind it. Such amazing innovation.
Loren Ipsum: Combing the old with the new. How can that not be ancient text carved into a concete wall?
Camooo: Camouflage your building or create a bold graphic statement. Imagine using this on a government building in your downtown!
Wall & Deco has just proven to us that architecture is about to get more fun!

I love the challenge presented by small spaces, perhaps nowhere more than in the kitchen. How do you squeeze a functioning galley into a small space and still maintain a certain level of aesthetic in the process?
The standard bearer of the self-contained mini kitchen is Boffi's Mincucine (pictured above). Designed in 1963 with a volume just shy of 11 cubic feet, this mini kitchen covers cooking, refrigeration and storage in a space the size of an office desk, wrapped in a brilliant, minimalist design.
The original Minicucine was updated in 2007 with a gorgeous matte Corian finish.
Students at ENSCI, the famed Parisian industrial design school were clearly influenced by Boffi when they designed their Modern Space Saving Mini Kitchen. Sliding counters and a streamlined design give the concept piece a Star Trek allure.
With storage, prep and cooking all wrapped into a single, mobile unit, these kitchens contain everything but the lighting. Mini-pendant lights are a great way to light these minimalist wonders without overpowering their diminutive size.
Hinkley Hampton Wide Nickel Mini Pendant Light, (left) Polished Nickel Hybrid Mini Pendant (right)
Mini kitchens can seem almost automotive in their presentation. Concept photos show gleaming stand-alone pieces with doors swung open and there's a distinct emphasis as much on performance as on form. Designers Adriano Conti, Corrado Galzio and Alex Innamorati pack a lot of punch into their design, including a vegetable washer, dishwasher, refrigerator, small pantry and oven. At approximately three feet in diameter, this design could be tucked away into a closet when house guests arrive. Or as the photo shows, it makes a decent cocktail table too.
A trend toward higher density living no doubt necessitates small living solutions, yet as logistically accomplished as compacted island kitchen concepts are, more conservative back-to-the-wall designs may be best suited to widespread use. The K1 Kitchen from French company Kitchoo is a minimalist bureau design that integrates easily with a variety of hospitality and home projects.
When space is an issue, modularity often carries the day, offering flexibility that stand-alone mini kitchens do not. Forget about what's on the stove, Snaidero's modular Code kitchen system is worth salivating over. It looks great with ample floor space, but can be scaled down to fit a much smaller footprint.
The Library Kitchen system, designed by Phillipe Starck for Warendorf, wraps the kitchen appliances in bookshelves, merging the cultural and the culinary for tight spaces.
When counter space is tight, it can be critical to utilize air space. Use stemware racks, recessed under cabinet lights and hanging pot racks to help keep cabinets and counters free.
Living small requires living smart. With a variety of excellent plug-and-play and modular systems out there, living small can mean living well too.

Sidney based architecture firm Andrew Maynard Architects took this old Victorian home with tall surrounding walls and turned it into a super cool modern home. We approve.
Simple forms, minimal furnishing and mixed materials all work together to create the home's modern look. When your minimal furnishings include cool, modern accent chairs go ahead and consider yourself on-trend.
Cool appliances, simple modern lighting and dark colored furniture make this place stylish for both male and female inhabitants.

After the expiration of the first licensing period the company has the option to renew for two additional years (1 release each year) for 25% of the applicable minimum.

Internet Streaming
If the company elects to stream a project online during a use period it will owe the writer 1.2% of any licensing fee paid to the company to stream the material. If the material is streamed out of the first use period then the company will owe the writer 15% of initial compensation for another use period (three years), and then 10% of initial compensation for all additional streaming beyond that second, three-year use period.

vacation rental description
Ahoy, maties! Welcome to Pirates' Paradise, our big beach house perched on the point where the ocean meets the St. Augustine Harbor inlet. Amazing views, abundant wildlife, and easy access to sightseeing and fine dining all make this a great place to stay.
Pirates' Paradise sits in a natural Eden of waterfront beauty called Porpoise Point (and you will see plenty of playful dolphins!) where pelicans glide by in long stately lines, shore birds call, and even the occasional manatee swims past. From here you can see the historic St. Augustine Lighthouse and Anastasia Island. The landscape here is simply unforgettable!
You can tell at a glance that Pirates' Paradise was designed for large families and lots of fun. The sparkling small pool has a sturdy safety fence around it, and plenty of sunbathing space. There's an outdoor shower, so the sand stays outdoors. Big wide balconies on the second and third stories offer plenty of room for the whole gang to toast the moonlight and gaze at ocean views during the day. An elevator makes getting up and down each level easy and quick. And the furnishings are very comfortable, with luxury in mind.
The first place you'll fall in love with is the master suite, occupying much of the third storey. It looks like a penthouse, with banks of floor-to-ceiling windows, a private oceanfront balcony, and an en-suite bathroom. A king-sized bed, HDTV, and full wet bar occupy this room, while the sun-splashed bath contains dual vanities, a soaking tub, walk-in shower, a separate area for the commode, and sliding glass doors to the patio. This is your sanctuary, a restful retreat after adventure-filled days.
The third floor contains three more bedrooms and two additional full bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms each contain two twin beds. The biggest of the remaining bedrooms, which doubles as a play area, contains 2 single beds, each with a trundle, along with a game table and terrific views of the dunes and water. The third floor offers a quiet sanctuary for guests to rest and relax away from the activity on the main floor or to just enjoy some great views while winding down from the day's events.
The second floor of Pirates' Paradise contains an additional large bedroom with king size bed and full bath., a centrally located half bath, and the living, dining, kitchen and laundry areas. Beautifully designed and filled with sunlight, this is a cheerful and busy place, ideal for your large group. Up to 4 more people will sleep well on the 2 convertible sofa beds in the living room.
The living area spans the entire front of our house, with multiple glass doors leading out to the long porch. Natural vegetation is all that stands between you and the water here, and you will love lazing away an afternoon in one of the rockers on the porch, watching boats float by and birds dip in and out of the underbrush. The murmur of the surf and the tang of salt in the balmy air are intoxicating!
When it's time to come inside, enjoy a movie on our HDTV with DVD player, get up a family game on the large game table, or enjoy an evening of reminiscences. Our furniture divides the room into 2 separate areas.No matter where you sit, you have an amazing view.
You will love the well-stocked kitchen at Pirates' Paradise, with a central island and glasstop stove We have both a formal dining table and a breakfast nook for your meals, but you may find yourself slipping out to the porch to dine al fresco. Who can resist such views?
Yet despite its uncrowded lands' end location, Pirates' Paradise is also very convenient to historic downtown St. Augustine, and is within walking distance of a brand new (Jan 2012) supermarket, the Vilano Beach pier (with great fishing and watercraft rentals) and several superb local restaurants. It's the best of both worlds, and your greatest problem while staying here will be trying to explore all the fantastic places around you!
Pirates' Paradise is a unique house, perfectly situated for maximum enjoyment of the incredible natural beauty
