|Please help with my dilemma. I'm renovating an 1300 sq ft old cottage. The house is gutted right now.
The kitchen is 19' long with a door on one end and window on the other. The end with the door is 10' wide, wall to wall. The cabinets will be on the 19' long wall and the refrigerator, pantry and appliance pantry will be on the other 8' long wall, leaving about 5.5-6' open space. The rest of the kitchen opens into the dining area and den.
I can't decide if I should do a peninsula coming off the wall where the window is or put an angled 2x6' long island which would give me more walking room on that end of the kitchen but less room in the dining area.
Pics are attached.

|Lots of pointy bits to run into. Pushes the great table a bit too tight - it needs about 4 feet clearance to the walls or to a hutch. Stuff is crowded (I think of some piled up prep stuff waiting its turn and then you need to wash off and chop some veg...)
Last is very silly concern that it doesn't fit the style of architecture.

Your silly concern is a big concern of mine, too. I want to try to keep with the older architecture but have modern appliances, etc.
I started off with the island but changed to the peninsula because it would give more room in the dining area. The more I thought about it, the less I like the idea because it will be too crowded in the kitchen.
I'm trying to find some large boxes that I can set up and move around to see how things will flow.
Thanks for your ideas.
|I'm coming in from left field, and exiting out the back fence, no doubt, but it's a standard issue in remodeling: That back corner. It's a prize location sadly wasted for most of us these days on a place to strip off muddy clothes.
Direct access to the outdoors and potential views on TWO walls, views and angles of sun exposure available from no other place and potentially available not only to that corner but to any space adjoining it. This is an especially important issue in a small home.
Although personal needs can make it inappropriate, a good remodel usually moves the utilities (to space-efficient laundry and storage closets in a small home) and turns the corner into a place people will like spending time in. Further, a second living place with a very different orientation will make a small home not only live better but feel much larger. And should you ever wish to sell this home, a pretty, sunny sitting, dining, cooking, ?, space there would be a strong appeal point over the laundry rooms in competing homes, which is why speculative remodelers so often change it out.
NOt sure I'm totally understanding your space -
My main kit is 20'x10' then I have brkfast knook - I knew an island would not work, so never had that rendered in any of the numerous plans - I did try for penninsula and realized that in gutting the kitchen I was really wanting to open the space up - so each time something encroached the open space I removed it -
If what you are saying is kit is 10' wide my rec would be to get big boxes to scale & do a trial to determine if it's workable
|I always preface my posts by declaring my anti-island bias:
But my house is about the same size as yours, so I know how small it really is. And I just took down a peninsula, and previously took down an island.
And the other day a friend and I walked through the open space and remarked on how much space they not only physically took up, but how much space around them they rendered useless. Get a couple of people around that island and you can't move anywhere in that area.
The diagonal island and the peninsula, as you fear, I think, balkanize the space and leaves very little room to walk around them.
Bmore's plan looks like a good option: not too big, still lots of room to move around. It would be particularly good if it was a piece of furniture that could be picked up and moved, not attached to the floor or plumbed in, so if you wanted to move it a bit, or even change it later, you could, easily.
If it was on wheels, you could even move it off to the side for entertaining and have a clear path from kitchen to table, or a server exactly where YOU wanted it, instead of an obstacle. (Don't imagine a cheap trolley, imagine a nice, normal wooden island with discreet, lockable wheels.)
Just my contrarian view.
I'm sure it will be beautiful. My house looked just like that not long ago. Now it's getting quite civilized again!

|I didn't think it would make a difference so I didn't mention this in the first post. We're adding 12' to the back of the house. Off that back kitchen door will be a laundry/mud room.
Ya'll have confirmed my thoughts about the island/peninsula. I removed several walls and moved some things around to open up the space so I don't want to close everything in again.
My hubby & son are picking up some furniture boxes today, hopefully, so I can arrange them as cabinets to see how it will work. So far, the furniture store hasn't had any out this week.
Growlery, can you post pics of yours? We're your floors as bad as this kitchen?
Thanks for the comments.
|I don't actually own a camera. Which is kind of funny ...
But my house is almost 200 years old and has its original floors. Yours look like Versaille compared to mine!
Yes, 3-D will give you a better impression. It "looms larger". And crowd around it, like you would while entertaining, and see if it is manageable. (Or just decide to put the cheese platter somewhere else!)
I am so completely in love with how opened up my house is now. It is also shocking how, when everything is so filthy and horrible and dark now, the drywall goes up and in a day you have a ROOM and you can really see how everything is going to be!

|My dear MIL was talked into a peninsula in a similar situation and always hated it because of the bottleneck it created at the end of the kitchen. Because of her experience when I had to deal with a similar layout I chose Growlery's recommendation of a movable island. Mine was from William's Sonoma and cost $700 about 15 years ago. It was 48" x 30". The top was butcher block. It had two drawers that were very useful for utensils and the base was open slats. I used the open area in various ways as my children were growing up. Sometimes it had all the paper goods---napkins, paper plates, paper towels---that we used constantly when they were young. In a later years it held bottled water, water containers and all the things they needed when loading up their bookbags or team bags before they headed out the back door. In it's last stage of use it had large stock pots or large wicker baskets that didn't fit anywhere else in my small kitchen. Although it didn't have wheels and was fairly heavy, it was easy enough for two people to lift and reposition whenever I wanted to move it. That island was one of my favorite things in that old house. Probably Williams Sonoma or John Boos would have something similar if you are interested.

|Remodelfla, what program is that? I need an updated one.
Thanks for the ideas. I'm leaning more and more towards not putting an island or peninsula. It would only add 6' of cabinets but sure would close everything in again.
Growlery, you can't really see the kitchen floor. LOL You can see the ground under the house in places. I've pulled up 3 other layers of flooring to get to the 1st floor which was probably gorgeous in it's day. It's bead board. The den and front bedroom flooring just needs refinishing. The dining area and back bedroom need to have some boards replaced. There is a sunroom across the back that will be part of the addition so I'm going to use the flooring out of there to patch the other 2 rooms.

|kntry... it's just powerpoint. Very few programs are compatible with my Mac
- Posted by danielle00 (My Page) on Fri, Jan 16, 09 at 20:19
|You should count on 36" of space on either side of the island.. I'm not sure it will fit. I love galley kitchens-- I think it is such an efficient configuration. I'm not sure what an island would add to it.
- Posted by kntryhuman (My Page) on Fri, Jan 16, 09 at 20:55
|If I put the island in the place where I have the boards laid out with the styrofoam at the end, I would have 3' of walk area on each side and 5' between the back of the island and the front of the cabinets.
The only place that would be really tight would be between the island and table.
- Posted by danielle00 (My Page) on Fri, Jan 16, 09 at 21:04
|speaking of moveable islands (forgot to mention this in the other post).. Costco occasionally carries John Boos... I got a 2 x 2 end-grain, maple butcher block/island w/ a towel rail for under 200. It retails for over 1200, so it was quite a deal. Some people here have also integrated some interesting vintage pieces into their kitchens. If you do end up with something, definitely make it moveable.
- Posted by jtsgranite4us (My Page) on Sat, Jan 17, 09 at 1:20
|We have a galley kitchen and realized an island would not work well with our dimensions. We did decided to go with a peninsula with a raised breakfast bar. We are very happy we made that decision.
Here are a few pictures:
The dimensions from the stove wall to the end of the peninsula is 16' 6" x 10' 3"
|IF you decide to go with a movable island, you might also check your cabinet line. Some of them have movable islands that you can get to match or complement your perimeter cabinets. I know, for instance, that KraftMaid does as my KD showed one to me when she was trying to talk me out of my mini-peninsula...she thought it would be more useful. [I love my mini-peninsula, btw! It protects my cooktop and has become my Baking Center.]
I'm someone who went from a small "L" shaped eat-in kitchen to a 2-peninsula kitchen and I definitely do NOT regret it...as a matter of fact I think I gained an amazing amount of counter space, in particular...and I then had room for a Prep Sink...all pluses!
There is a lot of anti-peninsula sentiment on this Forum, so you will probably not get much support for it. Most people (not everyone growlery!) prefer islands...stationary or movable.
I'm guessing there's no garage so groceries will be coming in from the front door (is that correct?). You also need to have enough room to carry those groceries into the kitchen.
|I meant to show you my kitchen. The "mini peninsula" my KD tried to talk me out of is the one at the "top" of the picture. There's no seating at that peninsula. The only seating is at the longer one on the "bottom" of the pic...b/w the kitchen & DR (it's a little over 5' so there's really only enough room for 2 seats.)
The peninsulas were one of the best things we did in the remodel to dramatically increase the functionality and counter space in our kitchen.
|Here are some layouts with a peninsula:
With a Prep Sink to have a water source near MW and so others can easily access it w/o coming into the kitchen proper:
Table clearances are pretty good...figure 3' from left & top walls...that leaves at least 6' of clearance on the kitchen side.
- Posted by kntryhuman (My Page) on Sat, Jan 17, 09 at 9:29
|Buehl, thank you so much for the layouts! That really helps.
If I leave the peninsula coming off that wall like you have it instead of making an "L", that would definitely work much better.
I forgot the diagram was in that group of photos. Since then, I've changed the wall where the refrigerator, freezer and appliance pantry is. I'm putting the freezer in the laundry room and putting the appliance pantry, refrigerator and 3' pantry on that wall.
I'm thinking about moving the stove to the end of the wall against the window to give me more continuous counter space. What do ya'll think about that idea?
Thanks for all the suggesions.
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Sat, Jan 17, 09 at 9:35
|I could see scooting it down to maybe 15" on one side and a longer prep space on the other but I wouldn't butt it up against the window. I had a thread awhile back asking if people tended to prep on one side only. The response lead me to the notion of moving my range down so I will have 15" on one side and increase to 30" on the other. I'm not a symmetry person so it should work for me.
|Dear jtsgranite4us,
Would you mind sharing the measurements of your penninsula/breakfast bar piece?
I'm especially curious about the length of the penninsula and the overhang width of the bar piece. Due to my kitchen's rectangular shape and space considerations, I'm thinking of doing something similar in my kitchen and your pics come the closest I've seen so far to matching what I think would work in my space.
Thanks in advance!
- Posted by jtsgranite4us (My Page) on Sat, Jan 17, 09 at 12:39
|la koala - here are the dimensions:
Lower peninsula is 17"x54" counting the edge. The overhang on the side is 6" (it is also wider there to reach the back of the cabinet.
The riser piece on the back of the cabinet is 4 1/2" high and 4" deep.
Raised bar is 17"x54" counting the edge. The overhang on the front side is 2" while on the back side it is 10"
Hope this is what you wanted.
Here is a picture from the front side:
|Thanks for the dimensions! Much appreciated.

I don't think it would tarnish the Nexus brand, but it would break the tradition of selling only Nexus brand in the play store. And yes it would piss off the other OEMs. But I think that would be a good thing. Then we might see competitive pricing with the OEMs. If the Motorola X is a real phone, then obviously Google is making there move into the cell phone market with Motorola. Do you really think that Google can keep them both separate for long?

Sacred Hoop with Neshi Lokotz
The Sense of Belonging - Have you ever felt like you are out of step with others? Have you ever felt like you just don't quite fit in either your family or your peer group? We search to belong, to belong with others who understand us and accept us. Understanding the sense of belonging is another aspect of emotional healing. Our soul craves, desires, the experience of belonging. Neshi has always wondered why so many people are attracted to Native American beliefs and way of life. There are many who have shared with Neshi that a parent or grandparent is Native American but grew up away from the culture. There are others who are children of a Native American parent but were not connected to that parent and the Native American culture. They yearn for the understanding of that part of themselves as well as a sense of belonging.

Lughnasadh - On the Celtic Wheel, we are nearing the celebration of Lughnasdh July 31 – August 1. Neshi's guest is our dear friend, Amantha Murphy. Amantha is back on Sacred Hoop to share about the Lughnasadh festival or celebration.
The Lughnasadh festival is said to have been begun by the god Lugh as a funeral feast and athletic competition in commemoration of his mother (or foster-mother) Tailtiu. Tailtiu may have been an earth goddess who represented the dying vegetation that fed mankind.
The festival also involved trading, the drawing-up of contracts, and matchmaking. There were trial marriages agreed upon at the festival. These trial marriages similar to hand fasting lasted a year and a day, at which time the marriage could be made permanent or broken without consequences.
Amantha Murphy is a Shamanic Healer & Teacher from Ireland who follows the path of the Goddess.
She started her work professionally in 1971 as a clairvoyant and moved into trance mediumship and healing within three years. Since then she has worked with, and continues to work with, groups and individuals here in Eire, in the UK, in Canada and the USA.

Good Deodorant

The scent is light and after a long day, my armpits does not smell that bad. Unfortunately, the spray head is lousy. I bought 2 bottles and both spray heads are damaged only after using half bottle.
Works pretty good

You have to let it dry and if you do that before getting dressed it works very well. I just don't like the fragrance--reminds me of something a very old lady might wear...or something like that. Just too flowery sweet...or..whatever. So I gave it 4 for the fragrance issue.
nice smell, good for use at home

Love the smell (was already tired from pomegranate smell), it is soft and light. I have found this to be good for use at home (though will not try to use it while going out, for example, to work). Of course, does not stop sweating, but if you have the option to wash armpits once or twice a day, this works. As I do love the scent, lately I have started to combine this with regular roll-on deo (also natural). So to say - double protection, :D
Scent changes when it gets old

I enjoyed this product. The scent was light and wasn't very detectable except right after application. After I had it for a while, the smell changed and wasn't as nice as it was initially. It didn't smell bad, just not as nice as the original.
Works well

This works well, especially because I tend to get pretty stinky. However I did not realize it does have a type of aluminum in it which is what I try to avoid. This is why it got 4 stars.

In response to AFNAV130's comment:
I have heard it said many times that this country is as divided as it was near the time of the Civil War. I for one relish it. I want what I hope is coming to come. Then those who feel that the government needs to protect them will be put to the ultimate test. Those who believe in personal freedoms and the rights that the constitution gave us, versus those who try to destroy it at every step in the name of "progress". I spent 10 years, which I now am sad to think about, defending the Constitution and the people of this country. It makes me sick to see the rejoicing here in AZ about the veto. It said nothing about gays, straight, white, black, purple or otherwise. All it said is based on religious principles a business owner OF ANY BACKGROUND can refuse service. What, pray tell is wrong with that? It's not a goverment office or establishment. Private business. The misinformation is astounding. If it devolves into a shooting war, all the better. Only then, when the smoke clears will the truth finally show itself. I put my money on those who actually care about freedoms, veruss those who believe transferring them to th government is the right course of action. War for states rights? Sounds about right.
Here's an ex soldier who wants to re-fight the civil war. An embarassment to military men and women everywhere if you ask me.
Again, here is a person who doesn't understand the oath a military person swore. To support and defend the constitution. Embarrassment? I know I'm not worried about you if something kicks off. You'll capitulate quite expeditiously. Funny thing. It's the last thing I want. But if it comes to that, I know the men from Boston will be on the opposite side of where they were 150 and 230 years ago respectively. That to me, is as sad of a thought as could be. And quite an indicator of where we are as a society. I used to loathe Robert E Lee for years growing up. Was he an embarrssment? I find now, no. At least I served, what about you?
First, thank you for your service.
As to this law in question, it was an amendment to an existing law that already provided protection to individuals from government interference in the exercise of their religious rights, which I believe is what is enshrined in the Constitution.
A question to ponder: if we have constitutional rights to freedoom of religion and we have constitutional rights that protect us from discrimination, how does the government uphold the Constitution when the exercise a person's religious beliefs results in discrimination against another person or group?
I look at it this way. In my opinion, a business owner can and should be able to make whatever rules he or she may want in regards to how he wants to operate. Now I know for some this is a difficult thing to understand. Race and gender are protected fully and totally. Period. That cannot be discussed. And no, LGBT is NOT a race or a gender. Sorry. Your birth certificate says boy or girl and race. That's it. It doesn't say gay or lesbian. Transgendered or not.
The end point? Let the market correct itself. I have nothing personally against gay people or anyone else for that matter. I look at it for what it is. A lifestyle. And I'm okay with that. Do what you want. But don't expect any sympathy when someone doesn't agree. That's a hard thing to com to grips with. Think about it. They want non gender specific bathrooms. They want to fundamentally change how we live. And no one says well I'm protected against that. They are doing what they are doing, not for acceptance, which in my opinion they already have, but to take it all. As I said in my original post, if there was no medicinal advances, and if everyone was gay, or a majority was, mankind would cease to exist. Think about that for a little bit.
The discussion is done....you lost...but keep swacking your head against the wall if you want to....you must understand that the rest of the world, and most of this country, has moved on...Uganda will soon cease to exist without western $$ after their own version of the anti-gay like Nuremberg laws, and Russia is simply an insane dictatorship whose country wouldn't exist without Russian Mafia corruption and a desperate clinging to a cold war bourne of a pitious inferiority complex...why copy them?
Lol lost huh? Where you are wrong is most this country HASN'T moved anywhere. The media tells people what they want, and most of it isn't truth. Trust me, if things keep getting pushed there will be war. Answer me this. If you had a girl and found out her school had non gender specific bathrooms and she was using it with boys how would you feel? If you say it wouldn't bother you then you are a flat out liar. I have lost nothing. Look at a map of the world where "Gays" have gotten the attention they have here? Yeah it's not that much. Don't worry, people like you have no idea about personal freedoms or probably have no idea the price that has been paid to give us what we have. There are much bigger issues as well, while this is more taking aim at the fabric of society. The others are actually more troubling. Lost. It hasn't even started. You don't have the resolve to continue it when push comes to shove. Of this I am certain.
Look...are you genuinely afraid that you or your kids will "catch" being gay? Really? Are you afraid that all kids in college using co-ed bathrooms engage in coitus all the time?...trust me, they don't, much to my own chagrin at school..lol...
No, I wouldfnot like my Jr. High or grade school children using co-ed facilities..or even HS...there is an appropriate time and place for everything...once of leagl age, who is to say what is right or wrong between two people...it ain't my thing, but what two consenting adults want to do with their who has is their business...and frankly, being a dad to 2 kids in their 20's, I REALLY DON"T WANT TO KNOW!!!!! I might not like the answers I get...But I'm not asking, because I love them and would never reject them for any reason....I can't answer you in any other way...the state has no right to tell people how to pray....or what to believe, and certainly not what to do in their bedroom....in this way, I consider myself to be a true conservative.
Go look up the push in Colorado to allow an 8th(I think) grader who feels he's a she to use the girls bathroom. And people want this. This is the point. It never stops. It won't ever stop unless it is checked. Your point about adults is a valid one. But that door goes both ways. If someone loses their job or business because they didn't feel comfortable with someone else's lifestyle the. That's wrong. That could be anything.

CATEGORIES Home Entertainment, Features, CinematicalWithout a doubt, one of the greatest comedic pairings of all time was Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. Stir Crazy, Silver Streak, Another You ... each had its charm, ranging from the story of a runaway train to a comedy directed by one Sidney Poitier. But my favorite has always been See No Evil, Hear No Evil -- a ridiculously plotted ball of laughs that allowed Wilder and Pryor to be their perfect -- and ultimate -- dysfunctional duo selves.
The film revolves around an unlikely friendship between a blind man named Wally (Pryor) and a deaf man named Dave (Wilder). They meet, become friends, and then find themselves embroiled in a messy murder. The cops don't believe them, and the crooks want them dead. Innocent yet desperate bystanders, they set out to stay alive and bring the bad guys to justice -- one of whom just so happens to be Kevin Spacey.
While the movie is an action crime thriller, See No Evil, Hear No Evil's charm rests solely on the banter that always erupted between Pryor and Wilder, and the ludicrousness of having an action film's heroic acts be led by one man who can't see, and another who can't hear.

After the government's inquiry into alleged Islamist extremism in Birmingham schools, Jewish educators will be keeping a close watch on what Ofsted does next. Will the inspection service seek to counter religious sectarianism more widely?
The Knesset's only immigrant from the English-speaking world, Rabbi Dov Lipman, has labelled a speech by a rabbi at a top Israeli yeshivah as a "tragedy".
A rabbi from Israel's leading strictly-Orthodox yeshivah has apologised for saying that Israel's government ministers deserve death.
Nissan Kaplan, a rabbi at the prestigious Mir Yeshivah, whose classes draw upwards of 200 students, said in a recent discourse on the weekly Torah portion that he not only advocates killing ministers, but also that he educates his children in this spirit.
A university's ban on the use of candles in its student village is to continue - angering Jewish holidaymakers who had regularly stayed on the campus.
Bosses at Aberystwyth University in Wales had rented student accommodation to strictly Orthodox families every August for 20 years.
Some 37 per cent of Israeli employers prefer not to hire Charedi men, according to a new survey which points to widespread discriminatory attitudes among bosses.
Marcus Dysch chairs the weekly JC Jabber. Our Reporters Daniel Easterman and Sandy Rashty debate the issues, with a special guest appearance from fellow JC colleague Amy Solomon. Charlotte Oliver is away this week on assignment in Israel.
Produced by Rosa Doherty.
Three controversial laws were passed by the Knesset this week in a legislative push that created rare unity among the opposition.
The laws raised Israel's electoral threshold to 3.25 per cent, established criminal sanctions against Charedi yeshiva students who refuse to enlist in the IDF and that any decision to relinquish Israeli-held territory will have to be authorised by a referendum.
A contentious new law that will criminalise strictly Orthodox yeshivah students who evade Israeli army service was passed by Knesset this morning.
The so-called "Draft Law" was approved by 65 to 1, with a Jewish Home MK casting the only "no" vote. Most of those who opposed the law simply boycotted the vote.
Israel must do more to build a cohesive society for all its citizens, including minorities, or risk serious the possibility of civil strife.
That was the message from Mike Prashker, founder of the Israeli NGO Merchavim, at a panel discussion on "society-building" at the LJCC in London.
Three years ago, Judy Kaye bought her first pair of jeans — an act she describes as "overwhelming".
Aged 30, she had two children and had lived in three different countries, but was still bewildered by everyday experiences taken for granted by most but which seldom touched her life within a strictly observant, Charedi community.

Cloud computing made big strides in 2013. Let's start with a quick recap. The public cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) market has seen many new entrants in the form of Google, HP, and Microsoft. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has launched more than 200 new features this year.
Apache Hadoop has gone mainstream with the traditional database vendors partnering with young startups to offer big data as a service. Salesforce has finally bridged Force.com and Heroku. VMware got rid of every distraction to focus on the hybrid cloud market. Pivotal has gone live with Cloud Foundry, and Red Hat OpenShift graduated to the second version.
On the Mobile Backend-as-a-Service (MBaaS) front, Parse was acquired by Facebook while PayPal bought StackMob. Enterprises gained confidence in cloud computing and they are planning to go beyond development and testing environments. OpenStack saw yet another release this year with increased support from the industry. Devops has become mainstream with enterprises taking it seriously.

text: WIGA News Clips September 14, 2005 LOCAL SWINOMISH TRIBAL MEMBER FACES BIG TASK AS HEAD OF STATE OFFICE SKAGIT VALLEY HERALD 9/13/05 NATIONAL TRIBAL RECOGNITION DELAYED TILL OCT. 12 NORWICH BULLETIN 9/13/05 SHOWING OFF: EXPO FILLS MANY ROLES FOR GAMING INDUSTRY LAS VEGAS SUN 9/12/05 LOCAL SWINOMISH TRIBAL MEMBER FACES BIG TASK AS HEAD OF STATE OFFICE By LEVI PULKKINEN Staff Writer Craig Bill giving priority to tribal health, education and economic issues For the first time, a member of a Skagit County tribe has been appointed to the state's top Indian affairs position. Craig Bill, a Swinomish member, was appointed by Gov. Christine Gregoire to improve the sometimes-contentious relationship between the state and Washington's 29 tribal governments as director of the Governor's Office of Indian Affairs. Tribal health and education and the growing tribal economies are high on Bill's list of priorities. He'll also be helping develop new policies on the handling of Native American remains, a controversial issue that has resulted in numerous lawsuits and high-profile work stoppages in recent years. Since being appointed in July, Bill said he has been involved in strengthening the government-to-government relationship between the tribes and the state. "I understand that these issues aren't going to be undone overnight," he said. "But if we can make some strides in improving the lives of all, I'll feel like it was a great accomplishment when this is all over." The office Bill heads, which has been known under several titles since its establishment in 1969, is the state government's lead liaison office with Washington tribes. It is tasked with improving the relationship between state agencies and the tribes, and the well-being of Washington's tribal residents. In a statement issued earlier this month, Gregoire said Bill's "unique understanding" of Washington tribes' concerns will help him improve the relationship between the tribes and the state. "I think he's going to make a great liaison for those communities to my office," Gregoire said. Bill said he's enthusiastic about the possibilities the office holds. "I'm just really excited, and I look forward to working with a lot of the tribes," he said. Establishing an appropriate process to deal with Native American graves is one of the top priorities for his office, Bill said. The state has been faulted in recent years for its reaction to the discovery of several burial sites in Snohomish County and a large burial ground near Port Angeles. Bill said he hopes to fix the health care and education disparities between the state's Native American residents and Washington's population as a whole. By working with other directors of various minority affairs offices, Bill said he believes the Indian Affairs office can help improve the health of people of color in Washington. "We're really bringing together all the communities of color to address health disparities," he said. Bill also said the governor hopes to strengthen economic partnerships between the tribes and surrounding communities, as well as state workers' knowledge of tribal government. The state currently offers training in intergovernmental affairs to state workers through the Office of Indian Affairs. Bill said that program, which attempts to give state employees working with the tribes a better understanding of tribal governance and culture, will likely be expanded in coming years. "It has helped break down their barriers and their preconceived thoughts on how tribes interact," he said. "It's been really effective." A 1998 graduate of Central Washington University in Ellensberg, Bill has been active in tribal government for the past seven years. Bill said he worked as director of Intergovernmental Affairs for the Whatcom County- based Lummi Nation for five years before accepting the post in the governor's office. He also directed the state Democratic Party's Native American Vote campaign during the 2004 election. Levi Pulkkinen can be reached at 360-416-2138 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com. NATIONAL TRIBAL RECOGNITION DELAYED TILL OCT. 12 By BRIAN WALLHEIMER Norwich Bulletin NORTH STONINGTON -- The Eastern Pequot Tribal Nation has been waiting four months to see if it will regain its federal recognition. Monday the tribe learned it will have to wait another month. James E. Cason, associate deputy secretary for the secretary of the Interior, said Monday he needed until Oct. 12 to review the case before handing down a decision. The tribe expected to get the decision Monday. Cason, in a letter to Marcia Jones Flowers, Eastern Pequot Tribal Nation chairwoman, said he wanted to thoroughly consider all issues and accurately interpret relevant laws applying to the case. The Eastern Pequot Tribal Nation -- composed of the Eastern Pequot and Paucatuck Eastern Pequot tribes, which had applied separately for recognition -- received federal recognition in 2002 as one tribe. But the Interior Board of Indian Appeals vacated that decision in May and remanded it to Cason for reconsideration after State Attorney General Richard Blumenthal and the towns of Preston, Ledyard and North Stonington claimed the tribe failed to meet federal recognition standards and merging the tribes was illegal. Flowers said, in a statement, she realizes the delay is a disappointment to tribal members but understands the magnitude of the decision and is positive the tribe will prevail. "In a decision of this magnitude, integrity matters, not timing, and we have confidence in the (Office of Federal Acknowledgment's) process and that they will affirm that we meet the criteria for recognition," Flowers said. Blumenthal, in a statement Monday, said he hopes the delay is an indication the recognition will get "the deliberation -- and denial -- it deserves." Cason said the decision on recognition for the Schaghticoke Tribal Nation from Kent will also be delayed until Oct. 12. firstname.lastname@example.com SHOWING OFF: EXPO FILLS MANY ROLES FOR GAMING INDUSTRY By Liz Benston <firstname.lastname@example.com> LAS VEGAS SUN Starting today, thousands of casino operators and vendors will descend on the world's gambling capital for Global Gaming Expo, the industry's largest trade show. What began as a showcase for newfangled slot machines several years ago has ballooned into a major convention covering every aspect of the business, from restaurants and architecture to financing and legal compliance. "The industry worldwide realizes that this is the show to come to," said Judy Patterson, executive director of the American Gaming Association, the country's premier trade group for commercial casinos. The AGA organizes the event with Reed Exhibitions. The show runs through Thursday. About 27,500 people are expected to attend Global Gaming Expo, now in its fifth year. That's about 10 percent higher than a year ago, a growth rate that put the show in Tradeshow Week's top 50 fastest-growing events nationwide. More than 700 vendors from 107 countries will display their wares, and attendees will sit in on some 172 conference sessions, 23 percent more than a year ago. As the industry grows globally, international attendance has soared, organizers say. About 20 percent of the trade show floor is represented by non-U.S. companies -- a 32 percent increase from 2004. New this year are special exhibit areas on managing air quality and smoking in casinos, emerging technologies and nongaming amenities -- which are now making more money for some Strip casinos than gambling and are a growing part of smaller casinos worldwide. For the increasing number of casinos and operators that are newer to the business, the Global Gaming Expo is an opportunity to scout out Las Vegas casinos and see the latest games. For Las Vegas operators, which have regular meetings with slot makers and have easier access to new technology than some of their peers who are farther afield, it's a networking opportunity and an overview of what's available under one roof. For the more than 200 reporters and other media registered to attend, it's a rare moment to get acquainted with an insular industry that will throw off its veil of mystique, if only for four days, and offer a closer look at how slot machines are made and casinos are managed. For some attendees, it's an opportunity to strike deals. AGA members say the show is an "important part of their decision-making," Patterson said. "I don't think you'd see the growth in the number of exhibitors and growth in registration numbers (otherwise)," she said. "Each year the growth exceeds our expectations." Some celebrities will be on hand to introduce slot machines bearing their likenesses, including actress Morgan Fairchild, artist Gene Simmons and comedian George Lopez. Celebrity speakers include CNN's Larry King, former Cirque du Soleil Producer Franco Dragone and entertainers Clint Holmes, Rita Rudner and Wayne Newton. While hundreds of slot machines will be on display, some slot makers say they are more focused on showing games that can actually be purchased in the coming months rather than slots with a release date of a year or more or whizbang prototypes that might never make it into casinos. "Operators have asked us to concentrate on things they can buy now," said Ed Rogich, vice president of marketing for International Game Technology. "Instead of previewing a couple of years out, 90 percent of our product (will be released) in the next three to six months." Games face their true test on the casino floor rather than at Global Gaming Expo, he said. At Station Casinos properties, about 30 to 40 percent of the company's slot machines are replaced or otherwise converted in a year, Roy said. Operators say competition is better than ever among the slot makers now that they all have some form of "cashless" machine that accepts tickets instead of coins. Cashless machines with video displays have allowed manufacturers to introduce low- denomination machines such as penny slots, which let gamblers play longer by betting a penny or "credit" at a time. "Everybody's on the penny bandwagon now," Roy said. "The market is more competitive than it's been in years past because all the manufacturers have new product that's doing well. As an operator, you have more leverage." At Sam's Town, one of the largest off-Strip casinos in Las Vegas, Director of Operations Andre Filosi is also on the lookout for new technology. "Manufacturers are probably better able to explain (downloadable) gaming" than in years past, he said. "But there are lots of regulatory approvals that need to happen and a lot of steps that need to be taken first." Like other operators, Filosi said he's a shrewd buyer of licensed, or branded, slots. They are more expensive for operators because they require casinos to share their revenue with the slot makers. That means they will only take up a relatively small percentage of slots in the casino, regardless of how many catchy brands the slot makers introduce. "Those are looked at closely to make sure they are top performers," Filosi said. We believe there's a place on our floor for them." While slot machines with pop culture brands will once again take the limelight at this year's show, the major buzz will surround the innards of future slots. So-called downloadable games, which are not yet approved by regulators in Nevada and many other parts of the world, allow casinos to change out slot games from a central computer server. Today, casinos update their games by changing each slot's computer chip or by simply buying an entirely new game. "We'll have the ability to take games and adjust to what people want to play, said Dan Roy, senior vice president of operations for Station Casinos Inc. "We'll have a chance to go into a tournament mode very quickly." Alliance Gaming Corp. Chief Executive Richard Haddrill said the games will take a year or two to be approved and accepted by customers. It will likely be a slow process and will only be adopted on part of the casino floor to test customers' reactions, he said. After three or four years, downloadable games will become an important casino management tool allowing operators to raise the denomination of machines and change pay tables with the push of some buttons, Haddrill said. Game content also will improve, he said. "Video content has exploded and the shelf life is getting shorter," he said. With the continued popularity of poker, new versions of table games and table management systems -- which are still being tested at a handful of casinos -- will have a bigger presence at this show. The biggest game makers are using technology adopted by retail and other industries to develop "intelligent tables" that can read chips and cards -- allowing pit bosses to track exactly how much customers are betting, which cards are dealt and therefore, how profitable their games are. Two major systems will be on display at the show -- tables with "optical" readers and tables can read radio frequency identification (RFID) tags embedded in chips and cards.

Not as interesting as last week, but here are the topics from tonight's discussion with John Wooten, my commentary in italics:
3-4 Defense:
NT is 340/350lb, suck-up the O-Line, run-stopper, def not a pass-rusher
(Buffalo doesn't have a NT at this point)
DE's are "active DT's" from the 4-3, these guys need to get push on the Guards.
(In Buffalo's case, I think Williams & Stroud would fit as 3-4 DE's)
OLB's are under-sized DE's or quick LB's who are primarily responsible for rushing off the edge or dropping into coverage
(In Buffalo's case I think Mitchell & Maybin, if taught, can fit this role)
MLB's are intended to drop into coverage or fill the gaps against the run, your DE's and NT should be sucking up the O-Line which would allow the MLB's to make plays
(In Buffalo's case Poz can fit the role of one MLB, but they will most likely need to draft another, maybe McClain?)
Do you think players from Texas are overrated & soft?
To sum up his response NO. They might not be highly productive right away, but they will be very consistent.
Being from Texas, John really defending Texas on this one
What direction will the Philadelphia Eagles go in after another disappointing season?
McNabb hasn't played his last game, that's for sure. Something is going on in that ball club that I can't explain. The intensity wasn't there at the end of the year when they could have won the division, got the bye week, and had home field in the playoffs. McNabb & Vick didn't go after fumbles like they should have, they didn't fight like they should have. The Eagles just didn't play with that intensity.
The Eagles GM position is open, the Rooney Rule comes into effect, they had discussed elevating one of their Front Office Personnel to GM, but the league stepped in and told them they need to comply with the rule.
Will McNabb goto Buffalo? Will they keep Vick?
I don't pay attention to anything until it happens.
Didn't really pay much attention to the question here..and no it wasn't my question.
Do you like this year's Pro Bowl before the Super Bowl format?
I like it more because I see the Super Bowl as the end of a great football season, so I don't think it is necessary to travel to Hawaii the week after the Super Bowl to watch a bunch of guys who don't play hard and don't want to get hurt play football.
What do you think about Schneider being hired as the Seahawks GM?
I think it's a good fit. Schneider was with the Seahawks a few years back, he did a great job with the interview process, our guy Marc Ross who interviewed just didn't have the Pro Experience to get the job. Schneider has been the Senior Director of Football Operations for 7-8yrs and was previously the VP of Pro Personnel so he definitely has the experience.
Do you think Brett Favre will be back if they don't win the SB? Do you think Favre made the Vikings who they are?
No question he made the Vikings who they are this year, this is the best I have ever seen Favre play. I don't know if he will come back. Right now he has done everything they have asked him to do....so I don't know...it should be one hell of a game.
When evaluating a QB, what are some of the key attributes?
Ability to throw the ball with accuracy and/or arm strength. Accuracy is the most important attribute, along with a quick release and pocket awareness. You have to be able to move and move in the pocket, and he has to be able to read Defenses. "If you are a stonewall QB then you are going to get stoned." The QB has to show leadership and has to be a tough guy, he has to stand in there and take the shot, he can't flinch in fear of the hit.
Do you think Tim Tebow will get a chance to play, and will he have to change his throwing motion to play QB?
Tebow will play QB, he won't be a first round or Top 20 guy, I think he will be more of a shotgun or Wildcat QB, or maybe even at the TE spot because of his size & toughness. I don't think he will be a Pro Bowler or even a Starter, but I do think he will be a player in the league because of his athletic ability and toughness, but I don't see him as an NFL QB.
Russ Lande discussion is tomorrow. I have plenty of questions from last week so I will get those answers tomorrow and post them.
