A kitchen without traditional cabinets-thought?
We are planning a small remodelling project at our cottage that includes a new kitchen. Nothing in the exisitng kitchen can be saved or reused and we are starting with raw space. The layout will be like a galley kitchen.
My thought is that I don't want traditional kitchen cabinets. I want open shelving under the counter tops where I will store plates, dishes, pots, pans, etc. I would have few, if any wall-mounted cabinets as one side is open to the living area and the other wall will be mostly windows.
I want shelving for two reasons.
The first is cost. We can get local craftsman to buid out my idea for a very reasonable cost, less than the cheapest of the cheap cabinets from big box home improvement stores.
The second is easy of use. I think if I have everything right at hand, it will be easier to cook and get food the table as well as easier to put clean dishes away if it is all out in the open.
For food storages, I will have a pantry area with sufficient shelving to store non-perishables, spices and such.
I haven't figured out a home for glasses yet, maybe shelving close to the fridge. Maybe glasses will require a cabinet of some sort.
The architect drawing the plans loves the idea, my husband is less than thrilled as he can't shake the idea of traditional kitchen cabinets out of his mind.
Does anyone have a similar, shelving/no door set-up in their kitchen? Any downside to the idea? All my stuff matches or is nice enough to look at that I don't feel a need to "hide" it away. This is cottage with a very casual vibe.
re: escondido123
We are there three out of four weekends a month.
Another part of my no cabinet thinking is the current cabinets seem damp-ish at times.
re: cleobeach
I fall into the dust and grime avoidance camp, I need doors for that reason. But if you have a dampness issue, you could put up doors with fabric centers where panels would otherwise be, to allow for lower moisture. I'd also take steps to mitigate the moisture problem, after assessing where it's coming from, because darkness and damp make for nasty mold allergies, IME.
I got rid of the cabinets on the wall above my stove when I remodeled my kitchen. It's also a galley kitchen. It provides (among other things) a LOT more light in the room! Things DO get dustier, though. and some of that dust is mixed with grease. So everything needs to be washed more often.
My personal preference would be for a combination of shelves and doorless cabinets. I'm still thinking about that for my kitchen.
re: Steve
If local carpenters are going to build the shelves, by putting front pieces of wood on the shelves, that will reduce a lot of sag potential. Or use a thicker plywood.
Or design in a way to flip the shelf surfaces once a year (a sort of odd 4th of July celebration) or some such easily remembered date.)
I like doors to hide everything and for the dust/cleanliness factor. Would you consider a large pantry, with sliding doors? IKEA has nice sliding doors that would be both functional and give you a more modern look. I'm thinking something along these lines (first picture on the left):
Or from IKEA:
re: chowser
The pantry area is already taken care of and I will have a door to that area, probably a pocket door. (We are working with a very small footprint.)
I hate these types of projects and decisions!
My kitchen has no upper cabinets. Still, going with just shelves poses two problems: dust/grease and lack of easy access to items at the back of the shelf. (This is particularly tough if the shelves are below waist level.) For that reason all of my cabinetry is either drawers--these hold our dishes, pots, glassware, cups, baking pans, strainers/measuring cups, etc. in addition to the usual things like silverware and utensils--or cabinets with shelves that slide out. There are only two cabinets, which hold big things like my standing mixer, food processor, etc. Since the shelves in the cabinets slide out, it is easy to get to everything.
Drawers are even more expensive to build than cabinets, but they work wonderfully. I first saw the concept on the "kitchen remodel" set of episodes of New Yankee Workshop, and I was immediately hooked on the idea. When we built our new kitchen we went with them for as many items as possible.
re: travelmad478
Another vote for drawer storage. I wish I had put in more when I re-did my kitchen. One of my neighbors replaced ALL base cabinets with deep drawers.
re: meatn3
My thoughts, too. It's not just a matter of dust; it's that greasy grime that's inevitable even if you don't deep-fry. I have one upper cabinet door that refuses to stay shut, and more often than not, if I have to get a dish from the upper part of that cabinet, I have to wash the dish before using it.
Imagine having to do that to EVERY dish you have!
re: escondido123
down that aisle of though -- how about go with the open shelves, but then hang short curtains? then you could open them when you're there -- close them for protection when you're not (and when you're cooking to avoid grease buildup, and won't trap humidity (which I agree needs to be hunted down -- kitchen cabinets should not be attracting or holding moisture, and there's something amiss here.) they could add a lot of color for very little money, too.
I deepfry maybe once or twice a year and I'm amazed by how much grease builds up on the tops of my cabinets and my refrigerator.
Aside from dust and dirt, if you are in an earthquake prone area, I would strongly suggest you forget about open shelves.
One of our apartments had glass-fronted kitchen cabinets. I hated them, but it was mostly the tidiness factor; for one thing, we didn't have the kind of pantry area you're talking about, so all of our food was on display. More than that, though, was the organization factor. Most of my stuff matched at that point, too - we'd just moved in together and were on our first sets of dishes, glasses, etc. - but it still had to be arranged. I never had the patience to stand there and point all of my coffee mug handles in the same direction, or line my glasses up into nice tidy rows. You might be a more patient person than I am, though. :)
re: darklyglimmer
I've always wondered about people who keep clean shelves with glass fronts. I'm with you. I'm not patient enough (or I don't care enough) and I need them all covered.
re: chowser
I have a couple of glass-front cabinets -- but they're frosted glass.
re: chowser
I have two glass cabinets, and I keep my dishes there. I like the way it looks.
Just know that there *will* be extra cleaning. I have lovely handmade open shelving on one wall of my kitchen (but cabinets below), and I love it. The shelves have been up for three years, and they're not sagging at all, but my landlord constructed them more as cabinets without doors, rather than just shelves, so there is quite a bit of extra support, and a bit more protection from light and dust. The pantry has a similar design, and there I did choose to hang a curtain to keep out light. The pantry (closer to the stove, and on the same wall) is the only place that I notice the presence of grease. If I keep a bag of rice or beans too long, the plastic starts to get that tacky feel.
Also, it's more irritating to clean the glasses in the cupboard than the other stuff. Mainly because they take up so much room on the counter as I'm working, whereas the rest of the stuff can be stacked to air-dry a bit. If you've a dishwasher, no worries, but I suspect you don't. I'd go with a cabinet of some sort for the glasses.
As far as placement goes, I like to keep the dishes and glasses near the sink or dishwasher, easily put away.
I think everyone else has addressed the dust and grime issue.
I recently remodeled my kitchen with the same idea. I actually started thinking about it because in Louisiana a lot of people have "fishing camps" - essentially cottages on a bayou or lake, and I always loved the rustic simplicity of the kitchen design, which often included open shelving.
I don't find dust or grease an issue with the stuff I use daily, and if I have to wash a less frequently used platter or whatever on the more rare occasion I use it - it's not that big a deal to me. I also don't obsess above things looking all "Martha" - though I did pare down down to a single set of china, and a couple of sets of inexpensive glasses to keep things uncluttered.
I love it - and having everything right on hand is one of the biggest reasons why. :-)
re: dearcallie
I like your Qashqai rug!
re: dearcallie
It's so nice to see a nice, decorated and obviously well-loved kitchen that isn't all granite, stainless and built-ins :) I wish more decor magazines would feature these ideas... but I know their job is to sell high-end finishings...
re: dearcallie
re: dearcallie,
This picture of your kitchen is EXACTLY what I am looking to do with my kitchen remodel I am about to embark on. I LOVE it. Thank you for putting an image to the thoughts I've had floating around in my head. I would love to hear and see more, if possible!
If you're into the commercial / industrial look you can do NSF chrome shelving units. It's how I store my collection of pots etc.
I would enjoy some open shelving in a kitchen, but I visualized dusty dishes and pots stored open-style under and over your counter. If you don't stay in the cottage year 'round, then I think you'd have to rewash your stuff before you used it in the first hours of your stay.
I have lots of open shelving in my kitchen, along with cabinets with doors, which to me is ideal. I get to look at the stuff I like looking at, have the ease of getting to pots and pans that I keep in the shelves under the island, but also can hide a lot of the clutter. I think a lot of it has to do with your personal style. (My mother and one of my sisters, for example, prefer a sleek/clean look, with nothing on the counters or anything showing but cabinetry and countertops.)
For the cottage you describe and the casual vibe and frequent use, I'd definitely be happy w/open shelving.
We are at our cottage 3 out of 4 weekends per month, all year round. The damp issue is because we keep the heat at 50 degrees in the winter (during the week when we aren't there) and no AC during the summer months, it is close to the creek and in the woods.
Dearcallie's fishing camp description fits our place and the picture is similar to the architect's concept. I mentioned to the architect that I was worried about sagging and he assured me the shelving would be built very sturdy.
Now we are struggling with countertops........
re: cleobeach
A friend of mine wanted "cool" looking counters without spending a lot of money. She went with Formica with a "solidcore" of color so there were no black lines where edges met. the cost was more than standard Formica, but the dark grey she chose was quite modern looking, they also had a "concrete" color that I really liked for a less black and white look.
I love my open shelves, and yes, more frequent cleaning is required. I have a combination of open shelves, lower cabinets, a few upper ones, and a great glass-fronted one for glassware. I've gotten used to seeing most of my tools and ingredients while I cook - if I could afford a glass-fronted fridge, I'd have that too! (If it weren't for IKEA, I wouldn't have much of a kitchen at all!) One smart thing my contractor did was to mount the open shelves on steel rods which he had pounded into the studs - there's a lot of weight riding on those shelves, which hold almost all my dishes in addition to many jars of spices, condiments, etc. It also makes the shelves "float" from the wall, so there are no end panels - it's a very clean look.
I have cabinets below and an open shelf above. I like the open shelf, but it does accumulate dust.
A thought about those shelves: my contractor "built" mine out of IKEA cabinet end-panels, cut to size; the foil finish is incredibly easy to clean, and it turned out to be quicker and cheaper than having him build the shelves out of wood. I slapped on a Home Depot trim, painted white - looks great!
re: hotoynoodle
Someone mentioned above the option of pull out shelves which I think could work with open shelving designs. That would give the advantage of drawers and the open shelving look. It really is more convenient to be able to easily access things at the back of a shelf. I have lots of pull out shelves inside cabinets and think they are great.
re: cleobeach
i have certain china pieces and platters and punch bowls that i only use a few times per year, even though i cook and entertain frequently. when i did need them, the grime accumulation was dismaying.
We have open shelving and love it! We are away about 6 weeks at a time. I rinse off serving bowls before using when we first return. Glasses are put on shelves upside down, so nothing accumulates inside the glasses.
My husband started new cabinets from oak. He never put on doors since I loved the open shelves. So much easier and functional without doors. The tableware utensils are in drawers.
Love it!
re: thymetocook
As it stands now, the pots and pans will be on open shelving to one side of the stove. The plates, bowels, and serving pieces will be on open shevling in another part of the kitchen, next to the dishwasher.
My plan is to have the sheet pans, pyrex dishes, muffin tins, etc in a deep drawer (because they are sort of ugly) I will have one set of wide drawers - top for utensils, next for spatulas and such and the bottom, deep drawer for the utilitarian things like the sheets and baking pans.
The place will sleep six and I can't envision ever cooking for more than 8 so I don't have a lot of "stuff" there.
I am struggling with the glasses. I don't mind wiping out a frying pan before using it, I won't want to have to look at film on the glasses. I don't like where he placed the glass shelf so husband and I are going to change that.
In a San Francisco apartment I had once, I removed all the doors of the cabinets to make my life easier for access to just shelves.
I am one of those that organize well and it did look good and was a lot easier when working in the cramped kitchen to not have to swing one's head one direction or another to open large cabinet doors.
But the dust/dirt factor was also an issue - all plates and glasses had to be washed before being used except those that were getting a lot of constant use. But thinking back on it now, it was a brilliant solution for me and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
We have open shelving in our weekend cottage. Since we only use it on weekends, we have a minimal amount of dishware, pots, glassware, etc. All of it is used on the weekends and then washed, so it really doesn't have the time to accumulate dust and grime. We do have cabinets with doors under the sink and cooktop to store paper towels, cleaning products, etc., that aren't pretty to see.
re: Kat
Since we only use it on weekends, we have a minimal amount of dishware, pots, glassware, etc
Yes, us too. We have hot water heat so I imagine that somewhat cuts down on the dust issue.
We ended up with three different areas of open shelving for pots, plates, serving pieces, one large pull out pantry unit and a small cabinet near the dishwasher for glasses.
re: cleobeach
I live in an old house with hot water heat. It doesn't cut down on dust (if anything it's worse - we had a HEPA air filter in the prior house)
I didn't pick up on your age, but............
Understand that as you age, bending, stooping, and the like become more challenging.
So..... Plan accordingly, if you intend to enjoy your "place" for a number of years.
Speaking from experience.
My kitchen is quite small, and the storage options were paltry.
There was a small breakfast nook that I felt was just wasted space- it's a tiny house, the dining table is 6 steps away. So, I headed to Costco, bought a metro rack, and I LOVE it. I love that I can see and grab things that I need, and I don't have to open and close doors.
I cook a lot, so most things don't gather dust, but some that I don't use often need a rinse or wash when I do pull them down. But I would never want conventional cabinets there.
Sounds like you've planed a great cottage setup. (Might even call it a traditional cottage setup.) Seems functional and practical. I've been to a number of cabins or cottages with something similar.
Best of luck with the remodel.
cleob, our place in CA is open space. A combination of shelves; vertical & horizontal to save space and show off the pretty skylight motif. But, having a well ventilated, dust-free space is key to this arrangement or you wind up wiping down your wares frequently.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
If you're striving for mediocrity, this is the school for you. I wanted to get behind this school, I wanted to believe it was headed in the right direction, but our time there was a chronic disappointment. The best word to describe this school is sloppy. From the back to school lack of organization, to classroom management, and everything in between, extreme sloppiness is everywhere. A couple of really good teachers and one or two good administrators do not make for a great school. They like to tout that they're an International Cambridge School, but here it translates into workers swearing in front of the kids in different languages, one of many examples of low standards. If you want answers/clarification/anything accomplished, good luck getting that done with just a phone call. I don't have enough room here to list the numerous examples of our disappointing interactions with this school. As both a military parent and a prior teacher (elsewhere), here is my advice, if you are considering this school: Run. There are numerous other schools to choose from in PWC, and this one will only provide your child with a cautionary tale of how a school should *not* be run.
This school doesn't have what it takes to be listed as a school. Nor should it be allowed to operate with the staff it has running it. The school registrar should be replaced along with the principle and the school board for allowing a school to operate the way it does.
As a seasoned teacher that has transferred into Parkside, I can only say how impressed I am with the administration and staff from the custodian right through to the principal. Starting at the top with the principal she is a straightforward woman. You know what she expects, there are no secrets. She is firm but fair; exactly what you want in a boss. Fellow teachers have been very welcoming and helping in every way imaginable right down to the custodians who helped any way they could with a smile on their face. There is a high standard for ALL students, as Parkside has become a Cambridge International School. Students are expected to always be respectful, prepared, and do their best. Why would anyone complain about a principal and staff that expect every child to be successful? I am exceptionally happy I became a member of the Parkside Middle School staff. They are a world class group of educators, just as Prince William County States about their schools, a World Class Education.
Do not work here. A lazy and unprofessional principal who likes to be bossy being surrounded by a group of assistants and some teachers from the staff. They are a bunch of spiteful, malevolent, stab-in-the-back people who will do anything so as to be "promoted' and belong to that "selected' group of cronies. They won't let anyone in unless you adhere to their social standards. Horrible place to work at.
This school does not provide a quality education. The schedule is so convoluted....it's amazing that anyone could follow it. The leadership at the school is lacking and not looking out for the students. They are only concerned with making a name for themselves. The foreign language program (of which they are supposed to be a specialty school) is not supported at all. Some of the teachers are good, but you have to look for them.
This school is less then mediocre. My child was not prepared for high school upon completion of eighth grade. The homework (whenever there was some) were handprinted. I can only recall a handful of times when text books were used.
Parkside Middle School is a school the community can be proud of. I think it is starting to get overcrowded and has a size and staff issue, in terms of adjusting to all this. With just two music teachers they have won numerous awards and competitions and this is with classes of 40 or more kids. One art teacher who coaches football, and another who gives her time freely and with great care and compassion for children. A science teacher who stays after school and sponsors Science/eco club and always handles large classes, or 8th grade LA teacher who constantly produces classes of impressive writing SOL scores by basing curriculum on engaging topics. Four Physical Education teachers who probably put together a class that is always the highlight of the day for each student. Counselors who create and maintain communication with their students, and countless other teachers who coach and secretaries who also sponsor or coach. We have one substitute with a degree in anthropology from Davidson (wrestling coach at one time), and another with a degree in political science from Virginia Tech (multi sport coach), another from Pittsburgh (coaches crew outside County). World Class...
Terrible school. Staff is unorganized and hates their jobs. School is generic and unconcerned for students. Bus schedules are always changing and you never know if your on the right bus. It took two weeks to register for the school thanks to very rude, unprofessional employees. I have been hung up on by the staff and the school seems very unwelcoming in general. To summarize, this school has no idea what they are doing, is poorly attempting to run on a low budget, and is unwelcoming. The teachers themselves seem good and are somewhat helpful and the curriculum is average.
Dissapointing. My US Constitutional rights have been violated so many times that it hurt me right in the patriotism. It's so poorly organized that alll the rules contradict each other and nobody has a clue what their doing. The staff is mean, I've been told "Get out my face" several times they arent helpful. The teachers are OK some are pretty bad but mostly good. Everybody hates their government jobs it not a happy place. Not very welcoming. You cant leave class, to use the bathroom, or they stop you.just to see the counselor you need to get a hall pas to get a counseling pass to get a digital hall pass back to class.
All we heard when we moved to this area was how great the schools are....well, after 7 months, I am NOT impressed. This school (as well as the elem my 4th grader attends) is one of the most unorganized schools I have ever seen. The band program is a disgrace......at their spring concert, my 8th grader was playing music that would have been 6th grade level at her old school. It was also extremely disorganized; the kids had no idea what songs they would be playing, they had to go get programs that were put out for parents so they could get their sheet music arranged. The teachers are slow to respond to communications from the parents. We got our 8th grader into the SIGNET program (the gifted program), but they really don't seem to do any real work in the class. I am really hoping for a better experience when she moves to high school next year!
i am a student at parkside and i love it here i am a 7th grader and i have to give it up to the teachers. My sci. teacher is the best and all my other teacers i learn all that i need. i get A's on my test and quizes i woul bring your kids here and also the other students are friendly
My child is a new 6th grader who came in from Bennett. We are seeing a big impact in quality of education and so far none of it is good. 1. Math seems to be taught using 'Investigations' methods rather than standard algorithms. Many nights after work I must tutor my child in math because he cannot accomplish the homework on his own. 2. On another front, we emailed a question to the Spanish teacher. No answer so we printed it and sent it in with our student. Still no answer. 3. A month ago we asked for the Parkside 6th grade AR list. We still have not been provided the list and are told the school library is developing it and will provide as soon as it is completed. They should already have a list that is updated regularly when they buy more AR quizzes.
My daughter is beginning 7th grade. I think the school has some wonderful teachers. But as anywhere you also have those 1 or 2 teachers that seem to be unhappy so everyone around them needs to be unhappy. The dress code is reasonable. But some kids fail to obey by wearing flipflops, short skirt, and ripped up cloths depends on what teacher you have to weather or not you get sent to the office. The office staff is great!! The new principal is realy getting the school in order and she is easy to talk with. Overall its a great school! My suggestion would be to challenge the students more expecialy the ones in advanced or extended classes.
Teacher's okay at keeping the students in controle. Many teachers don't keep track on what they need to doing. Not all students automadicly know the information.
Parkside is the worst school ever! maybe academically its not but to the students it is. Theres alot of fights that break out and theres more drama in this school then in any other middle school ive been too. The staff seems to have no actual care for the students. Not to metion you barley ever see the princeapal involed in anything. The sercurity always seems to be in classrooms taking students to the main office. This seems to be slightly ridiculous for this to be happening in a enviroment that learning should be taking place. I feel unsafe when im walking the halls there. If you say the wrong thing to one person it would deffinatly start somthing. The guidence department is not helpful at resloving issues with students either and seem pretty busy with other task. Overall dont send your child here.
i ABOSULTLEY love this school!!! Their teachers are wondefull, and its fun to go. I never wanna miss a day!
Overall the school is good. There are some really great teachers at this school! there are also a lot of young teachers still working on finding the teaching method that works best for them but overall they are okay. The downfall to this school for us was the principal. We have always attended schools were the principal was very friendly and involved with the student body and their parents.
The quality of teachers is what makes Parkside shine. They are well educated, well informed and care deeply about their students. After school activities are what the children make of them. They are varied and plentiful. The music department is rich and talented. These teachers take children that have never held an instrument and turn them into life-long music lovers. The music department also puts on a full scale musical each year that is open to all students. To my knowledge no one has ever been turned away no matter their talent. Safety has never been an issue at Parkside. Students are treated with kindness and respect. Discipline with dignity is what is used here. Two of my children are attending Parkside middle school and I couldn't be more pleased. As to the comment about teachers not being involved...check out the parking lot after hours. These folks are VERY involved!
this school lacks the fund for extracurricular activities and it shows. this school lacks alot teacher involvement. Out of 1 thru 5 this school is a 2. 5 highest.
I think this school is a really good school. All the teachers know how to teach the material us students need.

text: If You Like Cameos from People Who Used to be on TV and in Movies Eight Years Ago... 11 Feb 2013 post a comment Share This: ... it's great! They're obviously going for a different demographic than the one I'm in. Justin Bieber was just the host (and musical guest, I imagine). I don't think he took his shirt off, but I imagine it was pitched in the writer's room. I mean, everyone else does. Taking off your shirt is the new "Ayyyyyy...." They seem to pick the hosts to draw the tweener audience, and then cram the show with Star-Studded Cameos (such as Whoopie Goldberg) for the older viewers. So older people can say, "Oh wow, I recognize that person there I never liked." The Adam Levine show featured Three Fantabulous Celebrity Walk-Ons: Andy Samberg, who's been gone such a short period of time we don't really miss him; Cameron Diaz, who I think last co-starred with Steve McQueen in Nevada Smith; and Jerry Seinfeld, who retired from Being Funny in the eighties and now sells origami ducks made from million dollar bills on QVC. There were a lot of Whoo!'s. There weren't many laughs. Of course they dialed up the Comedy Knob when Adam Levine took off his shirt. Emo girls need heartthrobs, too! I swear to Murgatroyd every male star who has less than 25% bodyfat takes off his shirt now. If Jamie Oliver ever hosts, bang, his shirt will be off, guaranteed. Hell, if Guy Fiore hosts, there's an 85% chance of it. It's not even in the context of a sketch. It's right in the beginning, the Host's Monologue, and for no other reason than to show his abs. The show isn't entirely sexist. Attractive young female hosts will also have a Host's Monologue segment where cast members talk about how hot they are, and will often strip down to a leotard and bustier in a Surprise Sexy Dance Number that sort of stopped being surprising the eighth or ninth time. This is to demonstrate to you that Anne Hathaway is a rootin'-tootin' hot little number, in case you weren't quite sure about it. They should just change the name of the Host's Monologue to "We're Cute and Awesome." Or, "We're Cute and Awesome, and Here Too is Whoopie Goldberg." In response to Wow. I Didn't Realize SNL Had Fallen So Low. Oh, I Forgot: Even Joseph Gordon Leavitt (who I didn't even realize was a Tweener Heartthrob) had to get his shirt off right up front, too.

Scale-up of Adolescent Contraceptive Services: Lessons from a 5-Country Comparative Analysis
Background: Poor sexual and reproductive health outcomes among adolescents aged 10–19 years are indicative of the barriers this group faces in accessing health services and highlights a gap in the availability of appropriate services, including adolescent-friendly contraceptive services (AFCS). The HIV Investment Framework identifies contraceptive services as an entry point for HIV counseling, testing, and treatment, and as a component of HIV prevention. To effectively meet the needs of adolescents, greater understanding of effective scale-up strategies for adolescent-friendly services is needed.
Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective analysis of AFCS scale-up experiences in Ethiopia, Ghana, Mozambique, Tanzania, and Vietnam using the ExpandNet/World Health Organization framework for systematic scale-up. The authors analyzed the type of scale (expansion or institutionalization), dissemination and advocacy, organizational process, costs and resource mobilization, and monitoring and evaluation.
Results: The analysis showed that all programs simultaneously pursued expansion and institutionalization, contributing to sustainable scale-up. Advocacy complemented by intensive capacity building at all levels of the health system contributed to adoption of AFCS in national and district work plans and budgets as well strengthening collection of age-disaggregated data.
Discussion: To achieve scale-up of AFCS, the authors identified the importance of institutionalization and expansion in tandem for synergy and reinforcement, empowering adolescents to be agents of change and hold government accountable to its commitments, and strengthening health systems to sustain AFCS.
Conclusions: This article contributes to a growing body of evidence around scale-up of AFCS, which can inform the implementation and sustainable scale-up of HIV and other services for adolescents.

Piddy Similar Items: Coming from Reality Cold Fact Searching for Sugar Man Searching for Sugar Man [Blu-ray] 20 Feet from Stardom - Music From The Motion Picture Editorial Reviews: SynopsisSEARCHING FOR SUGAR MAN is a film about hope, inspiration and the resonating power of music. In the late '60s, two celebrated producers who were struck by his soulful melodies and prophetic lyrics discovered a musician in a Detroit bar. They recorded an album that they believed was going to secure his reputation as one of the greatest recording artists of his generation. In fact, the album bombed and the singer disappeared into obscurity amid rumors of a gruesome on-stage suicide. But a bootleg recording found its way into apartheid South Africa and, over the next two decades, it became a phenomenon. Two South African fans then set out to find out what really happened to their hero. Their investigation led them to a story more extraordinary than any of the existing myths about the artist known as Rodriguez. This soundtrack consists of a selection of songs featured in the film but originally found on Rodriguez's records COLD FACT and COMING FROM REALITY.

Parent involvement
i have gone to raleigh edison then washburn and i can say that the teachers take out of their time to help students and now that it is my last year at an edison school i can say ill be ready for high school because of my teachers
Great school my son goes there and he loves It so send your son there!
An amazing school, every parent should send their middle school aged child to this school!
Best Middle School in Duluth hands down. Phenomenal teachers and staff.
I have had one son graduate from Washburn Middle School, and currently have another attending there. The school has done an excellent job preparing my son for high school. He is much better prepared for high school work than many of his peers who attended local district schools. Whether in Spanish, math, language arts, and arts, the teachers and curriculum at Washburn are far and above others in our community. Washburn is a small school, where students and families receive attention and where all needs--academic, social, personal growth-- are met and supported.
I have been both a parent of three students at Washburn and part of the Special Education staff for several years. The other comments here are very accurate. In addition, recently the school has gone through a negative transformation. There has been an exodus of gifted/high students due to the over all low/descending quality of the facility. As a former staff person I also don t consider this school a physically safe place for kids to be. The level of violence and bullying is appalling. Even for special education students, its one previous strength, is no more. Their touted Spanish program is so poor as not to be accepted by the public school system. Salvage your students education and transfer your child if the attend Washburn.
This school is lacking the structure and discipline needed in order to fullfill their mission and meet their goals. My daughter was harrased by certin group of kids for her 1st 2 days and nothing was done about it after contacting the school, we ended up switching our child to a public school in our district because she was comming home in tears for days.
The goals in which the school are based and the mission of the school is good. However, the school is lacking the structure and discipline needed in order to fullfill their mission and meet their goals. I feel as though the school has lost sight of their original mission due in part because it appears they have a high level of disciplinary infractions to deal with. This is resulting in lower expectations of the students which is ill preparing them for their future in high school. My recommendation: If your son or daughter is in need of assistance through the SPED department this school is good to send him or her to, however if your son or daughter is gifted or talented student you may wish to send them to Marshall where high level learning is promoted.
This is the worst school I have ever attended. There was no after school activities when I went there and from my sisters I hear there still aren't any. Send your children somewhere else. That school changed my life, but not for the better.

CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. - A day on the Gulf took a terrible turn after a 54-year old jet skier collided with a motorboat and lost part of his leg. The impact also threw four boaters into the water. It happened off the coast of Englewood.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission spent hours Sunday, investigating the crash.
First responders met the boaters at Stump Pass Marina after they were rescued by another boat.
Wink News spoke exclusively spoke to the son of the injured jet ski rider, 15-year old Mark Hollis.
Hollis says his family is on vacation from Kansas City and saw the whole thing happen in front of him. He was so shaken he could barely put it into words.
"We were just riding jet skis. My dad took a right turn and a boat hit him. We were just about to go out to the Gulf of Mexico to ride the jet skis when it happened," he said.
According to the jet skier's son, his father collided with the motorboat carrying four passengers, a man and two women in their 40's, along with a 12-year-old boy.
All five people were thrown into open water. The jet ski rider's leg was severed in the crash. Hollis says a person in a sailboat witnessed the accident and quickly came to their aid. He then took them back to Stump Pass Marina in Englewood.
Dee Hawkins with Charlotte County Fire and EMS says a 911 call came in around 4:30p.m. and two marine units from Charlotte County and Englewood responded immediately.
"Anytime we have an amputation that warrants a trauma alert. And so the chopper was called. But en route to our location that patient experienced cardiac arrest," she said.
The victim was taken to Englewood Community Hospital where Hawkins says he was resuscitated. Shortly after, the helicopter was called back for one of the boaters who was also in need of medical attention.
"40-year-old female that was on the boat that was experiencing some chest pains, from the trauma," she said.
Charlotte County Fire and EMS says the injured boater was airlifted to Lee Memorial Hospital and the jet ski rider has been transferred to Blake Memorial in Manatee County.

4 Bedroom, 3 Bath (sleeps 8 Comfortably) .80 Acres With Mountain View.
This home will exceed your expectations! I have received so many compliments over the years on the warmth, comfort and relaxation that this property will deliver to you during your stay! Situated on an expansive lot (.80 Acres) with many mature trees including soaring Arizona Ash, 30 year old African Sumacs, Mexican palm, orange and grapefruit along with considerable expanses of lush rye grass and mature desert landscape, the home offers exquisite privacy and is located in highly desirable Paradise Valley. As you drive up, the southwest architectural style with awnings over the front windows and the rich earth tones strike a perfect compliment to the desert setting. The circular drive in front is spacious enough to accommodate several cars while the concrete drive on the side leads to a two-car garage for covered parking. The large deep water pool with security fence is set near the rear of the property away from the house. The back yard is teeming with Gambel's quail, mourning and white wing dove, cottontail bunnies and an occasional cardinal and wild love birds during part of the year. The floor plan is designed to take advantage of the roomy lot, promoting the indoor and outdoor living that characterizes the Arizona lifestyle. Outdoor dining is a must after grilling your favorite dish on the natural gas grill. During your stay you will experience inspiring hospitality with top rated comfort and privacy along with convenience and accessibility to the best dining, shopping, entertainment and nightlife, golf and other sports activities available in the Valley of the Sun.

The beautiful French doors from the travertine floored living areas open onto both the front and back patios, which are paved with Saltillo tile placed with the bottom side up to provide a unique look and appeal. The dining room flows unobstructed into the living room with the expansive views looking south into the front yard. A small dividing wall separates the living room and family room, which has comfortable seating for 7 facing the 52-inch HD television and wood-burning fireplace.

Brewing Beer with Andy - PAX East 2014 (VIDEO!)
By Brewmaster_Andy 34 Comments
PAX East 2014 - The Brewening
As PAX East 2014 gets closer, I am once again preparing a handful of beers for this year's festivities. Those that know me know that I traditionally bring beers to the Giant Bomb panel at PAX East, and those beers are consumed throughout the panel. This year, I brewed three different beers - a super-secret beer for Patrick, a beer for Vinny, and a re-brew of last year's beer for Ryan.
Two of these beers got double batches for Max Temkin and the rest of the Cards Against Humanity crew.
During today's brew day, I put together this video for you all to enjoy! See you at PAX East!

Reports: Elin Woods to Start Over in Swedenby Free Britney at . Comments
Updating previous reports, Tiger Woods' wife Elin supposedly wants to return to live in her native Sweden, according to sources close to the situation.
Elin is currently in that country with the couple's two young kids. Tiger said he spent time with family after the Masters, but he's certainly not there.
While he lives the single life in Florida and resumes his golf career, Elin is making plans for a life after she divorces Tiger, a source told Radar Online.
"Divorce is openly discussed," the source said.
"And a deal will be worked out."
It looks like time may be running out on this marriage.
Tiger and Elin's marriage took a turn for the worst in recent months after the embattled couple seemed to get closer when Tiger came out of sex rehab.
While no Tiger Woods divorce papers have been filed yet, they barely talk to each other and live separately, although they have been extremely civil.
If Elin does wish to move back to Sweden, however, that is sure to concern the world's #1 golfer, who does not want his son and daughter so far away.
The issue has not become a problem yet but is now looming over the divorce situation as she keeps building what looks like a new, independent life.
Elin Woods and the children are currently on vacation in Sweden and she has begun extensive renovations on the home she recently purchased there.
What should Elin Woods do?
question for lee Says:
April 27th, 2010 12:57 PM Hi Lee: So do you believe in what the e-news said about Elin Nordegren's plan to leave Wodos with a large divorce settlement ? Or you think all these e-news about Elin is BS and Elin's real plan is still up in the air ? The answer to question is No I do not believe any these e-news but who knows any thing can happen. I am giving my opinion that Tiger Woods will not give up and Rachel.U might win the post if they do divorce To give an honset opinion Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren should agree on compromise(an agreement reached by each side making concessions)
Carmen is a men-hater... Carmen is a horrible men-hater....Carmen is a notorious men-hater who blogs negatively on men... Pls see a psychologist... BTW it is Tiger and Elin's marriage...and Tiger and Elin's divorce... BTW how do you know that Tiger had really paid millions to the other women ? Did Tiger tell you so ? If Tiger earned a lot, did it mean you are jealous and have a bad feeling to rich men ? It looks to me you are that... Carmen needs a psychologist ....
Tiger Woods paid millions to his mistresses for sex and to keep them silent. Tiger earned millions from sponsors and fans using Elin and the children to project an image of a decent family man while living a sordid life in private. Tiger betrayed and humiliated his family in front of the world and caused irreparable damage to the marriage. Tiger's reckless and selfish behavior has caused Elin and the children enough pain and suffering to scar them for the rest of their life. It is more than fair that Tiger secures Elin and the children's future financially because they have earned it, already.
Hi Lee: So do you believe in what the e-news said about Elin Nordegren's plan to leave Wodos with a large divorce settlement ? Or you think all these e-news about Elin is BS and Elin's real plan is still up in the air ?
My Message Elin Nordegren Tiger Wood is not a fool if you expect to get $500-$600 million and the children from this divorce if this e-news is true its going to be a long battle in court and by the way the are lots girls waiting to take you place.Rachel.U will be happiest person to hearing about this divorce.
Hi Jeep: Do you really believe in the tabloid word-by-word as what some e-news said that Elin is 4 months pregnant ? Her recent paparazzi jpeg in e-news showed her to be very slim...Besides, she is always seen carrying Charlie as if there is no fear to hurting the pregnancy..In short, it is hard to get convinced that she is pregrant... BTW is Tiger that productive ? If the baby was 4 months, it meant the inception was made in Dec when the couple was still quarrying after Tiger admitted his transgressions.
carmen please! take another line will you. There's no Elin without tiger. She has big feet, very masculine and doesn't speak english that well. His children are american. there's no normality for mixed race children in Sweden. And who says that elin wants privacy. Many think she's eating up this fifteen minutes of fame because she certainly didn't get any attention being in Tiger's shadow. nor adoration from her unsuccessful career as a model. Besides, she's pregnant again. Maybe that's one of the reasons why she's in sweden.
leave that ni gg
I wish they could work it out. And maybe with the time away from each other and Elin building a life with just she and her kids, it might take some growing on both their parts but it would be great if they could eventually reconcile. I always remember that line from a Lorretta Lynn song, "Women like you are a dime a dozen, you can buy 'em anywhere". Surely, Tiger would rather have Elin than those dime a dozen things that messed his life up.
I would not be surprised if Elin Nordegren, eventually, decides to live in Sweden with the children. After all, Sweden is Elin's country and it is there where they have the love and support of family and friends. Tiger has caused too much pain and suffering to his wife and children and they need time to recover and live a more normal life again. I think that in Sweden Elin and the children can achieve a sense of normality and get privacy from the frenzy media that have hounded them relentlessly for several months. I wish Elin and her precious children all the best!

Sweet rainbows: How to make your own colored sanding sugar
As a rainbow-loving lady, I'm always trying to add color to my confections. As a newly-diagnosed diabetic, I have to watch what I'm adding to sweet treats. This is a trick I've used to color sugar for topping cupcakes and candies many times, and it works for sugar substitutes, too!
Making your own sanding sugars lets you create just the right hue to add to your sweet rainbow and dragon, here, is going to show you how it's done.

My super easy bathroom/bedroom contemporary update: like putting a v-neck sweater over a gnarly sweat-stained tee
When I moved into my condo, I loved everything but the horrible almond-y bathroom. SO '70s!
I moped around feeling helpless for a while, and then I got an idea to reno my space myself — no big commitment, just my own two hands and a little bit of smarts.
How to make temporary art
One thing really makes a place look lived-in, and that's hanging art on the wall. It takes a commitment to put a nail into plaster to hang a picture, and seeing art you've committed to hanging immediately makes you feel in control of your space.
While you're waiting for art you love to come along, you can liven up a room with your own art — or your family's! Round up the necessities, and I'll meet you in the driveway for a seriously easy step-by-step guide to making art for your home you'll be proud of.
Neon: not just for '80s throwbacks any more!
I'll be surprised if you don't find these fluorescent design ideas titillating. I never thought I'd want to live in a world where fluorescent colors are a trend. It sounds like the bad parts of '80s style crawled out of whatever toxic sludge pit they retired to and attached themselves to 2012.
But the more walls and tschotchkies in hot pink and electric blue and peeing-Mountain-Dew yellow I see, the more excited I get.
