Britain's winter wanderland
The walk
Start at Westminster Bridge and follow the walkway east along the south bank of the Thames. The London Eye, Southbank Centre, Tate Modern and Shakespeare's Globe are just some of the icons you stroll past, while river views to St Paul's and the grand buildings on the north bank are among the finest in London. After two miles, after passing under London Bridge almost without noticing, is Tower Bridge, a fabulous example of Victorian engineering, drama and style. Cross the bridge and follow the embankment walkway downstream (now with the river on your right). Within a few hundred yards, the path turns into St Katharine Docks. Beyond here, the walkway follows the river again and soon reaches Hermitage Community Moorings, where a collection of vessels are moored. The route keeps heading in the same direction, sometimes next to the river, at other times ducking inland to follow cobbled streets between former warehouses now converted to flats and offices. Look out for signposts indicating the Thames Path – you're on the final miles of this longdistance National Trail which follows England's best-known river from its Cotswolds source to the Thames Barrier.
The pub
At the end of a street called Wapping Wall is The Prospect of Whitby, a famous old riverside pub. There's a garden terrace, but in winter you're better off in the downstairs room with its wooden beams, stone floor and pewter-topped bar. The best tables are near the windows at the back, which seem to overhang the Thames like the stern of an old sailing ship. From here, you can also see the gallows, complete with noose swaying in the breeze above the water – a reminder of the days when the notorious 'hanging judge', George Jeffreys, was a local at the pub back in the 17th century. More than 300 years on, the clientele has improved and the pub can sometimes be crowded, but choose an afternoon in winter and you can still enjoy a quiet drink, some no-frills pub grub and a definite sense of history.
Make it happen
This is a four-mile walk. The nearest stations to the start and finish are Westminster (underground) and Wapping (overground) respectively.
The Prospect of Whitby is open daily, with food served 12 noon to around 9pm or 10pm, although in winter the kitchen may close at around 3pm to 5pm (mains from £8).
For somewhere to stay, continue the riverside theme at Guoman Tower Hotel next to Tower Bridge (from £190).

Baddibu communities welcome donorsWednesday, January 28, 2009 The Governor of the North Bank Region, Alhaji Edward Seckan, has applauded the efforts of Professor St John and wife of Bochum, Germany, for their contribution to the health care sector in Salikene, Baddibu, North Bank Region. Governor Seckan used the opportunity to underscore the importance government attaches to the provision of quality health care service. He thanked the professor and his wife for their efforts to complement the government's efforts towards the attainment of health care for all at the grassroots level. He also noted that the government recognizes the efforts of the professor to create a conducive working environment for health delivery staff. The governor was speaking during a visit the couple made to the family of the late Dr Momodou Lamin Saho, to convey their condolence message and acknowledging the tremendous assistance he had rendered to humanity. Speaking at the occasion, Baba Jeng, regional health officer for North Bank East, on behalf of the Department of State for Health and Social Welfare and the 33 communities of Central Baddibu District, commended Professor St John and wife for their immense contribution to the health sector, particularly in Salikene. He used the opportunity to appeal to the donors to consider assisting the health centre with laboratory equipment and to provide them with essential drugs to help reduce maternal mortality and morbidity within the catchment area. Mr Jeng hailed the efforts of the centre's nurses for their outstanding performance. The chairman of Kerewan Area Council, Alhaji Lamin Ceesay, hailed President Jammeh for his personal intervention in the health sector, and for creating an enabling environment for individuals and philanthropic organizations to participate effectively in the socio-economic well-being of the people. He noted that as a council, it is mandatory upon them to support any organization and individual working to enhance the living status of the taxpayers. He informed the gathering that the council had been contributing fuel to facilitate the movement of nurses to conduct their weekly antenatal clinics at the grassroots level. The chairman urged the professor and wife to consider developing the capacity of nurses on the usage of any equipment to be given to the health facility in the near feature. The chief of Central Baddibu District, Momodou Kendo Dibba, and Mamadou Bintou Dibba, thanked Professor Dr St John and wife on behalf of their community. The head chief disclosed that the health centre serves 33 communities with a population of 15,000. Author: DO |

When Ray Lewis stands five yards in front of the line of scrimmage before the snap, you can still see the minute details that have helped him become arguably the greatest middle linebacker of all-time.
His arms are bent at the middle, his elbows are sticking out, and his hands rest on his hips. Seventeen years into his glorious career, he's still using the technique that he learned in year one of pee-wee football. Proper technique and angles used to be a part of the entire package that Lewis possessed in addition to speed, intimidation, physicality, and play-making ability.
Although he's made a ton of plays over the years with the above, it's hard to ignore how much he has slowed down physically during the last few seasons. His preparation can only take him so far before offensive masterminds realize that he's only gotten worse when taking on blockers against the run, and he's slowed down significantly when it comes to his once great sideline-to-sideline range.
The Ravens coaches, to their credit, have done a solid job of keeping their star's jersey clean against the run. They've managed to keep Lewis free of contact by covering up both offensive guards ("even" front) with their defensive and nose tackles. This has been beneficial for the linebacker because he has to deal with less combination blocks (zone blocking) at the second level, thus giving him time to read his keys and pursue the ball-carrier. An example of this came against the Indianapolis Colts during the Wild Card round.
Lewis was at a depth of five yards from the line of scrimmage against the Colts' 12 personnel (1 back, 2 tight ends) on this play. He was the strong-side inside linebacker and in between the defensive end (Arthur Jones) and tackle (Terrence Cody), who covered up the right guard and tackle. There was little chance of him getting blocked by a lineman in this case because the only two uncovered blockers — the center and first tight end — had other responsibilities.
The center had to work to the second level to block linebacker Dannell Ellerbe, and the tight end had to assist the tackle in blocking the end (Jones). With the ball-carrier taking the hand off to Lewis' side, it would eventually become a one-on-one matchup that the veteran linebacker almost always wins due to his rare read-and-react ability.
As the near blockers worked down the line of scrimmage and away from him, Lewis took subtle steps to his left, staying disciplined while he mimicked the path of rookie running back Vick Ballard. He kept his eyes up, read the flow of the runner, and eventually squared up, sinking his hips as far his old body would let him while lowering his shoulder into a spinning Ballard, pummeling him into the ground for a below league average gain of three yards.
While defensive coordinator Dean Pees has been able to help Lewis still make an impact in run defense, he hasn't had the same success in pass defense. It's not without trying, however, as Pees has used Lewis primarily as a zone defender in the middle of the field where he can communicate with his teammates and potentially break up passes. But there's only so much that Pees can do to cover up Lewis' lack of range.
As Lewis has gotten older, it's become painfully obvious that his hips — along with knees and ankles — have stiffened up. He struggles to change direction whenever he's forced to by crossing routes, and even when he manages to do it, he's unable to keep pace with the pass catcher.
In the Ravens' Divisional game against the Denver Broncos, he had issues in coverage and was targeted frequently. As expected, he didn't fare so well. Lewis' lack of flexibility and speed was exposed, and it especially stood out on one play.
The Ravens defenders were hovering over the line of scrimmage in an exotic blitz package that saw Lewis start off from the left B-gap (the area between the guard and tackle) and move to the right B-gap before dropping into the middle of the field. The scheme didn't seem to ask a lot of the 37-year-old because it was a simple zone drop, but it would become difficult as each second passed by.
Standing in between the hashes, Lewis was suddenly faced with a crosser who would force him to quickly break down in space, take a proper angle, and ensure that there were no yards after the catch gained. That was a tough task.
Lewis broke his stride and started attacking downhill. It appeared that he was going to be able to take a good angle that would (ideally) separate the pass-catcher from the ball and cause an incomplete pass. That didn't quite happen because he struggled to open his hips up and meet the ball at its destination.
And as a result, the crosser caught the ball and Lewis struggled to stay in proximity after the catch.
There's no doubt that Lewis is one of the greatest to ever set foot on the gridiron. His qualities have outweighed his few inadequacies over the years, particularly his outstanding leadership and preparation.
But as he's aged, those inadequacies — specifically, his pass defense — have held him back from being as effective of a player as he once was. When quarterbacks always say they must know where No. 52 is before the snap, it's not because they fear him — it's because they want to attack him.

The Coastal Discovery Museum should be your first stop for all things Hilton Head. This is place to go to gain a better understanding of the Lowcountry's cultural heritage and history, its ecology, and its residents, both past and present.
When the Sea Pines Resort founder Charles Fraser built the Harbour Town Lighthouse in 1970, the skeptical public nicknamed it "Fraser's Folly." Fraser's folly soon became Fraser's foresight. His red-and-white-striped lighthouse soon became the symbol of Hilton Head Island.
Your visit to Hilton Head Island would be not complete without a trail ride on horseback through the Sea Pines Forest Preserve. Pretend you are back in time, in an era before cars, exploring unspoiled forests just as the Spanish did.
Located at in the Sea Pines Resort, South Beach Marina Village is modeled after a New England-style fishing village. It is a great place to congregate, people watch, and spend the day – shopping, dining, and plenty of things to do.
The Gullah culture has woven its way into the fabric of the Lowcountry. Hilton Head Island offers visitors the chance to learn more about this unique and complex culture through guided historical tours.
Thanks to the ingenious masonry methods used by 18th century Lowcountry builders, you can walk the ruins of a grand antebellum tabby mansion. The Stoney-Baynard Ruins tells the colorful story of Hilton Head Island and of the Stoney and Baynard families.
For a quick history lesson, be sure to drive or bike by any one of the area's historic churches. Most of these churches served as places of worship for abandoned or freed slaves during and after the Civil War, and are still open every Sunday for services.
For the perfect day trip, you don't have to look any farther than over the bridge from Hilton Head Island to find the quaint, historical town of Bluffton. It features a thriving art district, historical tours of antebellum homes and churches, and great antique shops.
Built around 1840 as a summer residence for plantation owner John James Cole, the Heyward House was one of 15 houses and two churches to escape demolition by Union troops during the Civil War. It is open for tours Monday through Friday.
When you first pull up in front of Rose Hill Mansion, you can't help but experience a rush of vivid images of pre-Civil War plantation life.
A visit to the Lowcountry is not complete until you've experienced the "haints" of the South: Boo Hags and root doctors; Voodoo and grave robbers; pirates and Civil War soldiers. This is the stuff of Lowcountry legends, creepy tales, and goose bumps, both on land and at sea.
Hilton Head Island has the remnants of four Civil War forts. If you are interested in historic forts, don't miss two of Savannah's most significant forts: Fort Pulaski and Fort Jackson. And in the Charleston area, historic Fort Sumter.
Just a short distance across the water from Hilton Head Island is Daufuskie Island, a century removed from the upscale stores, vacation villas, and power yachts of Hilton Head's busiest tourist destination.
If you are curious about Daufuskie Island but want more flexibility than a guided tour, design your own day trip. Visiting Daufuskie can be a completely impromptu adventure, requiring nothing more than a few dollars, lots of curiosity, and time to spend.
A narrated open-air trolley tour of the Historic District is a popular way to get a comprehensive introduction to Savannah's significant history that began almost 300 years ago.
You've already taken a trolley tour, which gave you an overview of Savannah's Historic District. Now it's time to focus on the details. Take a specialty guided walking or driving tour.
Since its publication in 1994, John Berendt's book "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil", or "The Book" as locals refer to it, has made a big impact on Savannah. Learn about this non-fiction depiction of the story's places and players by joining a guided tour.
The River Street Riverboat Company offers a variety of cruises aboard the Savannah River Queen and the Georgia Queen, replicas of the river boats that cruised America's rivers in days gone by.
Always proud of its heritage and beauty, Savannah has a long track record of historic preservation. Visitors to Savannah may tour some of these magnificent historic homes.
Savannah was founded as a Church of England settlement, but many other beliefs soon followed. There are many historic churches. Here are a few significant colonial congregations.
As one of the key areas fought over during both the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, Savannah offers you a glimpse of America's earliest turmoil. It historic fort sites inspire awe and bring tears to those who visit.
As long as you're visiting Georgia's First City, why not tour her in a style in harmony with her history – a horse drawn carriage.
The city of Charleston is one of this country's most popular destinations, having received "Condé Nast Traveler's" Award as "Top U.S. City." Visitors can choose from a number of guided tours year around.
Tour some of the south's most iconic plantations: Boone Hall, Drayton Hall, Hampton Plantation State Historic Site, Magnolia Plantation, and Middleton Plantation.
Daufuskie Island ferry service; dolphin tours; guided nature & history tours of Daufuskie Island; fireworks cruises; and golf cart rentals.

This is the essay I submitted to the New Jersey Center for Tourette Syndrome & Associated Disorders (NJCTS) for their 2014 Children's Scholarship Award contest. I hope you enjoy it!
When the word "disease" is said, overcoming is definitely not the first thing that comes to peoples' minds. In my opinion, having Tourette's is a battle. I have been bullied, ridiculed, and laughed at. I think a lot about the kid I could have become, that is, if I surrendered. But luckily, I didn't.
I managed to muster the strength and courage to face my problem. In fact, I sometimes convince myself that I no longer have TS. I have accepted the fact that I will never be cured of this. So what does this mean for me? Hide behind excuses for the rest of my life? Succumb to being a nobody? Not anymore.
Ever since I entered high school, I slowly started to see the best out of every situation. I have used my tics to my advantage by channeling my energy into something positive: setting goals and achieving them. Why should I let TS get in the way of challenging myself? I found that I can use this obstacle to my advantage.
When I was in middle school, I definitely didn't have the same optimism about having TS as I do now. Unfortunately back then, I fell into the trap of self-pity. I would always make excuses for myself. I didn't challenge myself in school because I thought my mental abilities weren't sufficient for mainstream classes.
My bizarre motor tics made me feel out of place and ashamed. My fear was that people would make fun of me, especially this one tic in particular (that I still have today) where I tweak my neck to the side to feel temporary relief. If I held my tics in, I felt like exploding. Often times I would tic then nonchalantly try to cover it up by using "normal" gestures, such as cracking my neck.
Once I gained the courage to move into mainstream classes in my last year of middle school, things weren't as bad as I had anticipated.

Education for Health welcome government response to NHS Future Forum report 'Liberating the NHS Developing the Healthcare Workforce From Design to Delivery'
18 January 2012
As part of its on-going NHS consultation, the government commissioned the NHS Future Forum, an independent body of health experts, to report on education and training, information and public health. Earlier this week the government accepted the Future Forum's recommendations.The Future Forum's recommendations include:
- The establishing of local Health and Wellbeing Boards which can drive local integration and address local concerns
- New local education and training boards which embed continuing professional development and a review of the Tooke report into medical education
- An new emphasis on making 'every contact count' – this will be become a core staff responsibility in the NHS
The full report can be found here.
Monica Fletcher, Education for Health's Chief Executive, said today of the report;
"For us as a health education charity the recommendation of the Future Forum are hugely exciting and reflect many of the beliefs we have held for many years. Two points in particular represent, to us, a considerable step forward.
We are pleased that the government have accepted the recommendation for healthcare professionals to develop a renewed emphasis on making 'every contact count'. Although there is some resistance to the idea of healthcare professionals intervening and discussing people's lifestyle choices, we can no longer deny the fact that individual lifestyles are increasingly coming to define the public health agenda. There has been an long term trend towards conditions related to over, as opposed to under, consumption in the UK and we need to be speaking to patients about their lifestyle choices. This can save lives and money and must be a core facet of any attempt to drive down hospital admissions and improve community health. For some years now one of our modules – Improving Health - has explored this very issue and the feedback we have had from healthcare professionals has been very encouraging – we welcome the rolling out of this principle nationwide.
Secondly, we welcome the government's acceptance of the centrality of high quality education and training to healthcare strategies. There is a growing body of research, and an increasing recognition, that investing in robust staff development and training has a hugely beneficial impact on public health. Our own experiences again have shown us time and time again how locally focussed and responsive education can meet the ever changing needs of both healthcare professionals and patients. We look forward to working with the new local education and training boards and to sharing our experiences with them as they move forward and give high quality education and training the central position it deserves in the healthcare agenda."

Shark cartilage is made from powdered shark skeleton. Sharks have no true bone: Their skeletons are composed of cartilage. Shark cartilage is white in color with a fishy odor and taste.
Shark cartilage has been touted as an agent to prevent or treat cancer. However, multiple studies have demonstrated that shark cartilage does not alter the course of established cancer or decrease the risk for any type of cancer.
Known ingredients of shark cartilage include:
There is no evidence that shark cartilage has any beneficial medical effect for any condition.
Please note that this section reports on claims that have NOT yet been substantiated through scientific studies.
Studies are currently ongoing to determine the value of shark cartilage as an angiogenesis inhibitor (stops the development of new blood vessels). This, in theory, may help fight certain cancers by cutting off their blood supply. Although shark cartilage contains agents that decrease angiogenesis, any effect on cancer has not yet been confirmed by appropriate scientific studies. Angiogenesis inhibitors are currently being evaluated in the treatment of cancer. However, the agents used are much more potent than those present in shark cartilage and are not derived from shark cartilage. Even these newer more potent agents have not clearly demonstrated effectiveness against cancer.
Other claims: Shark cartilage may boost the immune system and help in the management of many diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, skin conditions such as psoriasis, retinopathies such as diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration, bowel inflammation, Kaposi's sarcoma, and cancer of the breast, cervix, uterus, ovary, prostate, kidney, liver, and central nervous system.
There is no current recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for shark cartilage. Shark cartilage is available in capsules and powder form. With shark cartilage, it is important to ensure a reliable processing method of the product from a reputable manufacturer. The normal suggested daily intake of shark cartilage is about 60 grams. However, a patient following this recommendation would need to take 80 capsules per day.
Like all supplements, shark cartilage can potentially interact with other medicines you may be taking, including antibiotics and diabetes medications. Be sure to talk with your doctor before beginning this or other supplements.

This is where Nature, disengaged from the sports journalist's point of view, could have added valuable scientific perspective. Physiologically speaking, what is the difference between artificial enhancement and unlocking untapped, but natural abilities? This isn't a question of dosage or drug regimen. As Knapp points out, proposals to legalize doping based on the rationale that it will help officials monitor and keep athletes safe are absurd. "You can't control how much people will take, and athletes will take everything," she said. "These people will take more than you can possibly imagine." Unfortunately, Nature's editorial fails to deliver. Instead of providing insights into the nature of fitness and human potential, the editors fell into the common trap of supporting their argument with inapt comparisons.
When it comes to doping, Knapp says, "There are false analogies all over the place." And she's quite right. Nature suggests that public opinion about enhancement may "evolve" in the same way that the once-common belief that women have no place in sports was eventually rejected. But comparing a woman's place in athletics to steroids' place in athletics is incredibly unsophisticated, especially for such a distinguished journal.
For her part, Jenkins compares doping to Lasik corrective eye surgery. "Is there really a difference?" she asks. This analogy strikes me as closer to the mark if one accepts that athletes should, as Nature recommends, be allowed to take any risk they want. Still, it's a shaky comparison. For one thing, although Lasik has risks, chances are it won't cause you to develop cancer. Also, at best the surgery can deliver eyesight that is achievable with corrective lenses, whereas performance enhancers can push the body past what is achievable with even a rigorous fitness routine.
On Monday, Slate published a "thought experiment" by science writer Dan Engber that did not advocate legalization of performance enhancers in the way that Jenkins and Nature do, but did attempt to analyze the consequences of such legalization. Engber reasoned that if doping were legalized across the board and all players were to have access to the same pharmaceuticals, "some sports might not be so different" in the long run. "In the first few years of doping you'd see some wild variations in statistics, and some awful tragedies," he wrote. But at some point, "If every player were similarly inflated, individual stats would start to regress toward the mean."
Another likely consequence, though, takes this debate into darker terrain.
"There is no doubt in my mind that allowing doping would filter down to the young," says George Solomon, a former sports editor for The Washington Post. "What makes sports different from movies and other entertainment is that it's competition with an outcome. And permitting cheating, which is what doping is, would violate that."
As Engber suggests in Slate, well-funded professionals might have equal access to pharmaceuticals and trainers. But this is not so for young athletes. The effect would be "unbelievably elitist," Knapp said. "Wealthy kids would go to better endocrinologists than poor kids, and we would be writing off the health of young athletes that don't come from privileged classes." To its credit, Nature does mention "there would need to be special protection for children" if doping were legalized, but that's about as much concern as the journal could muster.
Fortunately, most fans and journalists still have serious reservations about sanctioning performance-enhancing drugs. But perhaps that is changing. As Barry Bonds, who has been at the center of the Balco scandal and is the subject of the book about sports doping, "Game of Shadows," tied and then broke Hank Aaron's all time home-run record this week, pundits expected a lot more jeering and booing than he ultimately received. Then again, with so much scandal roiling the sports world, perhaps doping is merely being eclipsed by more grievous crimes.

This is the second draft my designer has sent me. She said that she wanted my approval of the first floor before she updates the second floor....
I know the garage is very prominent. However, due to lot elevation (basement lot-- I have to have at front of lot)and subdivision restrictions(has to be side entry opposite main traffic flow, etc) this is where the garage has to go... I would love any feedback. This is my first reaction of updated floorplan: 1. Family room to narrow for furniture and main traffic flow to staircase. I'm thinking about having designer move staircase to where current laundry room is located but I don't know where I would move laundry room... Dimensions are hard to see but are 19'0 X 18'5 2. Kitchen. I just don't care for layout. It seems to open up to much to hallway. I did want it to have direct access to dining room but otherwise I want lots of counter and cabinet space. Dimensions are 16'2 x 12. 3. Breakfast nook to narrow: It looks like if I had chairs out at the table there would be no walking space around table. I told the designer to bump out that area but she didn't to keep the symmetry with the master bedroom.... I think it still should be bumped out to enlarge. Current dimension is 13'4 x 10 4. Keeping Room: I told designer to make it smaller and she made it larger... I was thinking about making it about 12 x 13. Current dimensions are 15 x 14. My husbands requests are a large master bedroom, bath & closet. He says that's where he spends most of his time and he wants it spacious. He also wants a large kitchen and eating area. Dimensions may be hard to read here they are listed: Entry 6'7 X 8'2
Follow-Up Postings:
It's hard to see but I like it. Can you post a better picture? You are going to get many comments about that garage protruding that much. Very few houses look nice with a garage like that. The kitchen needs some work. |
I agree with your concerns, and the kitchen really does need work. Consider your basic work triangle: sink, stove, fridge. They're way too far apart . . . And separated by an island. With all that kitchen space, your designer should be able to do better. |

I agree, your dining room is much too tight, esp if you plan to have bar stools at the peninsula (less so, if you don't, but still too tight). Are you going to want your guests to have to walk past the mudroom to get to a bathroom? I like the location of it, I think you might need a door. Plus, the study can really only ever be a study and never another bedroom due to the other bath location. The kitchen is odd. why is it so open to the hall? (and are you okay with seeing your laundry room from the very large opening to the kitchen?) And, can someone please tell me the purpose of a keeping room? We don't have them here. And, I see them frequently on these plans (I think they must be common in GA). What in the world are they for/used as/etc? It looks like maybe a small family room? But, almost too small to be useful in the way I use a family room... So, just wondering. |

@ Kirkhll-the term keeping room is very common here in the south. I had never heard the term prior to living here (SC). It's a synonym for family room but I have noticed a big trend in having these off the kitchen and surrounded by windows. Everyone uses them for a smaller casual gathering (couch and one or two chairs with tables and benches.). |
Here is what I plan on sending back to my designer tomorrow.... Keeping rooms are very popular here (southern TN) and basically are used as a casual gathering room focused around kitchen (and typically have another fireplace). With young children, I plan on using this room as the messy family sitting area/play area while I cook. The main family room is going to be "adult only" no toys allowed area... Also, we will use the keeping room as a separate space when we do have guests. Guys watch the game in Family room the gals gather in the keeping room.... etc... (or adults in family room/ kids in keeping room...) The designer made this keeping room 14 x 15 which I think is actually to big. I mainly want it as more sitting area/sunroom in the kitchen. We will have a large backyard it will overlook and then are views past the back yard is golf course. |
Here is what I plan to send back to designer drawn by hand. You can reference above plan to see how it fits house. What do you think? The other scenario I was thinking about is moving the stairs to where the current laundry room is (as a "u" staircase) and then somehow relocating laundry to between keeping room and pantry/bedroom.... |

I like a lot of things about your plan. I'm wondering what your butler's pantry is going to look like-- they aren't typical in my area, so I don't know what is standard and if it's a dressy area or something more utilitarian, but as you have the design now, your butler's pantry will be in clear view from the foyer. I'm not sure if that's intentional because it's pretty or accidental or what... Also, I'd be tempted to connect the bathroom to the keeping room and the bedroom-- then if the kids need to run in and go they can either cut through the bedroom if they are coming in from the garage, or access it right from the keeping room, since that's going to be the place you spend most of your time. |
zone4newby: Thanks, I hadn't thought about how the foyer would see right into butler's pantry. However, I think that will be okay. If I go with this version of plan, the butler's pantry would just be additional kitchen cabinets where I would store all my serving dishes, seasonal dishes, stemware, etc. So it wouldn't be messy... I will say. It says have a china cabinet (where I wrote where I could put one) but I really don't have one yet. If I had a butler's pantry, I wouldn't need a china cabinet.... I would just have the table and chairs and maybe a serving buffet instead on that wall. That's also a good idea about connecting bathroom to keeping room and bedroom. I just wonder how it would flow with 3 doors but will definetly bring up to my designer tomorrow... |

This is a much better kitchen now. I would eliminate that peninsula and make the island bigger in the kitchen. You could put seating in the island and it would leave more room in the nook. The kitchen forum can help you with good layouts, including distance from island seating to a table with walk space between them, sink and appliance layout and details. |
I like this better too One thing--do you want any kind of hall closet for front door users' jackets, etc? In my area, that is needed. Depending where in Tennessee you are, that may or may not be needed... |
also, I'd want some way to close off the mudroom (maybe double pocket french doors, or similar) for when I was entertaining or had guests staying in the guest room. |
okay, one more do you want access to the bath from the keeping room if that is where your kids will be? As is, they will be running through the kitchen to get there. |
Yes! It looks great! You still don't have a hall closet (for front door guests) so that maybe isn't important to you. I am glad they got the access to the bathroom from the keeping room. I only worry that one or the other door to that bathroom will be locked when someone needs it (that is a problem with double door bathrooms.) But, overall, Nice! |
Oh! And, don't forget to get your Master WC door switched to a pocket or outswing door for safety! |
I like it too. I agree with the 2 entrances into the guest bath, but that is the best way to have that room accessible where you need it! I also want to second putting an outswing door on your master toilet room - we failed to do that and I never paid attention to posts here about it. Not long ago my husband was sick in the bathroom and I realized the danger of having an inswing door. If we had changed it around I would have to keep the door closed at all times and I guess that's why I chose the inswing. I'm in southern TN too! (SE corner to be exact!) |
downsy: Where in SE tn? I am in Chattanooga! Kirkhall: Will look at the bathroom door swing! I will ask my builder for a pocket door there since my husband and I usually don't bother actually shutting the door and I don't want the outswing to always be open. |
Yes - Chattanooga, Hixson to be exact. Are you building in Council Fire? (you mentioned golf course) If you have any questions regarding building, etc - you can email me by clicking on my name and I'll respond and give you my telephone number. We have been in our home for just under 11 months. Good luck! |

I think the kitchen layout still needs work. You're going to walk back and forth constantly around that little island, and people who want to cut through the kitchen are going to zig-zag through your work area. I've attached a sketch of a more simple floorplan that I think is better for several reasons -- sorry I scanned it sideways: - Your major work triangle is enclosed in an efficient area. Negatives: |
So first bid has come in (still waiting on other two builders) and it is 50-75K over budget. Builder said it is more than anticipated since the first floor has so much square footage versus the upstairs. We are looking at either reducing square footage and/or elimating unfinished basement. I am leaning towards elimating basement. If we did that we would only have a two car garage on main level and a storage room underneath house in tall crawl space under master bedroom. Builder said that he would pour concrete and have double doors there. We also would elminate (for now) built-ins around fireplace and mudroom, and screen on back covered porch. Downsy: |
Maybe GW took away the ability to email here because I don't see my edress or yours when I click on my user name or yours. Email me at |

1.) In 1946, there was an American Revolution
In 1946, the people of Athens, Tennessee, overthrew their local sheriff's department. Many were
World War II veterans freshly returned from fighting the fascists abroad. There was no prison
sentence handed out to any of the parties involved, and there were no deaths, but several were
wounded. The sheriff had been engaging in massive vote fraud. On the night of the election,
people marched down to the sheriff's office with their weapons and demanded a public counting
of the ballots as was the law.
The sheriff refused, and a shootout ensued. When the sheriff surrendered, the ballots were
counted in public. Everything returned to normal with a new, elected government, without the
federal or state governments intervening in the local conflict. (1)
This revolution is a superb example of why a standing army should be avoided, the right to bear
arms should be respected, and local political units are always preferable to larger ones. In today's
anti-terror environment, the President would likely send in the National Guard to put down
the "terrorist uprising," confiscating everyone's weapons like the National Guard did during
Katrina (2), and the cronyism in that county of Tennessee would continue. This is why it was
said during the floor debate on the Second Amendment:
What, sir, is the use of a militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane
of liberty. (3)
2.) Wyoming is in a hostile standoff against the Feds
Wyoming has passed a law stating that any federal agent who enforces any federal law on a
Wyoming firearm is subject to a year in prison. (4) What this means is that, were the federal
government to send in federal agents to enforce a federal firearm law, local cops in Wyoming are
now required to arrest them. The federal agents, of course, would likely try and arrest them back,
which would lead to a very bloody situation.
So far, the federal government has not provoked Wyoming police. It would certainly be a
dramatic turn of events if a US president were to order the shooting, bombing, or droning of
Wyoming police officers. Although the current number of Wyoming police could easily be
defeated by the US Military, it is lawful for sheriffs to round-up a posse, and the majority of the
population in Wyoming are armed. (5) The US Military cannot even defeat the Taliban, who are
a small fraction of the Afghan population.
3.) Throwing bricks led to LGBT rights
In June of 1969, lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgendered (LGBT) people were outlawed in
much of America. Of course, they existed, and when they were caught they were often arrested.
In New York City, the police frequently staged raids on LGBT bars. But one night, they staged a
raid on the popular LGBT bar called the Stonewall Inn, and people for the first time fought back.
A larger crowd from outside gathered bricks. They threw bottles, bricks, and fists, cornering the
police for hours until eventually more police showed up with reinforcements.
The next night the situation was the same, and the night after that. Eventually, a group of LGBT
protesters decided to publicly flaunt their lawbreaking by holding a Gay Pride march in broad
daylight. Up to that point, the LGBT community was too intimidated by social norms and police
action to publically protest, and the march was a catalyst for a wave of protests that eventually
led to the legalization of LGBT people. (6)
In 1969, those people throwing bottles, bricks, and fists at the police were treated by the
government as felons (though the police were only able to arrest a small fraction of them). In
2009, New York City erected a statue to the Stonewall rebels.
A fellow in Vermont was recently arrested for cannabis possession, and after he was released
he decided crush half the police cruisers in his town with his tractor. In 40 years, will that
town erect a statue in his honor? Interestingly, the comments on a USA Today article about the
incident are mostly in support of the farmer. (7)
4.) Four towns in Maine have declared they are sovereign nations
The Maine towns of Sedgwick, Trenton, Penobscot, and Blue Hill have declared their
independence from their county, state, and federal government. Although, it is legally more
correct to say the sovereign nations of Sedgwick, Trenton, Penobscot, and Blue Hill are bordered
by the United States, and they have declared their independence from it. Their citizens voted to
declare absolute sovereignty, and they used valid legal arguments from the US Constitution and
the Maine constitution to do so. (8)
So far, these towns have exercised this sovereignty only on matters of food, and, like in
Wyoming, the federal government has not shot, bombed, or droned the local police (and neither
have the state police or the county sheriff's department). If the federal government were to
invade these nations, the nations obviously would not be able to win by themselves. Of course,
the populace from the surrounding state of Maine might send reinforcements.
5.) In certain situations, it is legal to kill a police officer
In the case of John Bad Elk v. the United States, the Supreme Court ruled that:
"Where the officer is killed in the course of the disorder which naturally accompanies an
attempted arrest that is resisted, the law looks with very different eyes upon the transaction,
when the officer had the right to make the arrest, from what it does if the officer had no such
right. What might be murder in the first case might be nothing more than manslaughter in the
other, or the facts might show that no offense had been committed." (9)
In John Bad Elk's case the facts did show that no offense had been committed: He was declared
innocent of the murder of the police officer who was attempting to arrest him, because the
Supreme Court ruled that the officer had no right to arrest him and Elk was acting in self-
defense. Of course, if you feel like you are being wrongfully arrested, and you use lethal force
on a cop, you most certainly will get tried for murder, or at least manslaughter, and you will
likely get convicted. But in certain extreme cases, such as when a woman is being raped by a
cop, a jury would likely be sympathetic if she killed him in self-defense, and the Supreme
Court's case law sides with her, so she would likely win on appeal even if the jury didn't side
with her.
The American tradition holds fast to rebelling against authority, but in recent years any physical
rebellion against the state has been demonized to such a degree that those who engage in it
no longer even have the liberty of a guaranteed trial, thanks to the most recent National Defense
Authorization Act (NDAA). (10) Any one of the examples above could be labeled "domestic
terrorism," but conventional history looks kindly upon these rebels. One man's terrorist is another
man's freedom fighter, and this is why it is especially important that everyone, no matter the crime,
be afforded a jury trial.
In this chilling era we live in, a young adult who lives a few towns over from me recently went to
prison for decades for translating a video on explosives and posting it on YouTube, an activity
that is legal under the 1st Amendment. (11) This whole ordeal happened before the NDAA
was passed, and if it had happened after, he likely wouldn't have even gotten a trial before being
hauled off into the night. And who knows, just for writing this article, I might not get a trial either.

Cross-cutting is an editing technique most often used in films to establish action occurring at the same time in two different locations. In a cross-cut, the camera will cut away from one action to another action, which can suggest the simultaneity of these two actions but this is not always the case.
Suspense may be added by cross-cutting. It is built through the expectations that it creates and in the hopes that it will be explained with time. Cross-cutting also forms parallels; it illustrates a narrative action that happens in several places at approximately the same time. For instance, in D.W. Griffith's A Corner in Wheat (1909), the film cross-cuts between the activities of rich businessmen and poor people waiting in line for bread. This creates a sharp dichotomy between the two actions, and encourages the viewer to compare the two shots. Often, this contrast is used for strong emotional effect, and frequently at the climax of a film. The rhythm of, or length of time between, cross-cuts can also set the rhythm of a scene. Increasing the rapidity between two different actions may add tension to a scene, much in the same manner of using short, declarative sentences in a work of literature.
Cross-cutting was established as a filmmaking technique relatively early in film history (few examples would be Edwin Porter's 1903 short The Great Train Robbery and the Louis J. Gasnier's 1908 short The Runaway Horse) and Griffith was its most famous practitioner. The technique is showcased in his Biograph work, such as A Corner in Wheat and 1911's The Lonedale Operator.[1] His 1915 film, The Birth of a Nation, contains textbook examples of cross-cutting and firmly established it as a staple of film editing. Mrinal Sen has used cross-cutting effectively in his agit-prop film Interview which became quite popular after this. Christopher Nolan uses cross cutting extensively in his films like The Dark Knight, Inception and The Dark Knight Rises where two or three scenes take place simultaneously to build towards a grand climax. Cloud Atlas is known for its numerous cross-cuts between the film's six different stories, some lasting only a few seconds and spanning across 300+ years in different locations around the world yet held together by similar action between narratives in each cut.
Cross-cutting is sometimes used during phone-conversation scenes so that viewers get to see both characters' nonverbal reactions to what is said.

Continuing to post about our adventures in Malibu, California, the last hike we did that day was Escondido Falls. This was a pretty interesting hike as you actually had to park on the highway or in a tiny parking lot at the end of a street and walk through a lavish Malibu neighborhood to get to the trail head. The other interesting part is finding the right road and finding a spot, not only are there two streets near each other with the same name but it was a little difficult to find a spot to park on the highway, this is a pretty popular hike. The time it takes you to find it though is worth it.
Once you get through the neighborhood, which is a decent walk in its own right, see the trail head sign and head into a small canyon. You almost immediately forget you just walked through a Malibu neighborhood and disappear into the Escondido Canyon Park. Besides the crowds and at times the smell, you can completely forget you the just minuets from a major highway in the middle of a beach city.
The hike is an easy 4 miles round trip, without a lot of elevation gain (although should you decide to make it to the second and third falls its almost straight up). Getting to the first waterfall, once past the residential area, is a nice walk through a wooded area, party shaded with the occasional stream passing. Like I mentioned above, expect to see plenty of people on the trail, we hiked Escondido Falls in March and were consistently passing people on the trail.
Getting to the first falls you are presented with a shallow pool and a tropical moss covered waterfall. Fare warning, depending on the season and flow of water if the can be a little stale but it improves as you move onto the second waterfall. Continuing onto the second waterfall you must scale up a hill side which is supported by ropes in a couple of areas to help with some of the steeper place. Make sure you are smart when you do this as people get badly hurt every year because they try to do more then they should. Also, depending on how crowded the trail is, these are can take a bit of extra time to get past and be a little sketch when there are lots of people.
The trek is certainly worth it though, getting to the third falls you are presented with a tropical, 150 foot multi tiered waterfall. With a nice area to hang out at a rest next to the falls, its a great area to relax, take some pictures and soak in the wonderful California weather.
Heading back down and out of the canyon you are thrust back into an amazing Malibu neighborhood, big houses, tennis courts, reality. Overall this was a really interesting hike, certainly worth doing and short enough to do along with some other hikes or activities like Point Dume and Solstice Canyon. Malibu CA is definitely a neat area to hike in and I think we really only scratched the surface. Let us know if you have some other recommendations for us.
Duration: 2 hours and 14 minutes
Length: 4.2 miles
Total Elevation Gain: 850 ft
Difficulty Level: Easy to Moderate depending on which falls you go to

Wilcox, SK – Religion in 1991 and 2001
Nov 19th, 2010 by sarah
A researcher is studying the village of Wilcox, SK. He thinks that there may be an error with the number reported in the 1991 Census pertaining to the religion question.
In 1991, there were 75 Catholics and 165 Protestants (and no other groups).
In 2001, there 215 Catholics and 75 Protestants.
(Looking down the road to 2011, I am expecting there won't be a number to compare.)
Because Wilcox is home of Notre Dame College, it would be easy to think that he is correct in his hypothesis. Is it possible that the numbers in 1991 were flipped?
Subject matter experts have looked into the researcher's question about the religion data for Wilcox, SK for 1991 and have provided the following response:
"We have compared the religion data for Wilcox, SK for 1981, 1991 and 2001 and found no indication of any errors made during processing. No change was made to the data from the load stage to the unimpute stage to the final disseminated Religion data.
One possible explanation for the difference between the 1991 and 2001 data is the fact that the 2001 Census was conducted in mid-May, three weeks earlier than it was done in 1991. It is possible that by early June, school residences (i.e. Notre Dame College) would essentially be empty but in mid-May there would still be students in the school residence as well as in private dwellings. So many years after collection, there is no way we can confirm this for sure."
If you or the researcher have any other questions, please not hesitate to contact us.

This is a third papercraft with the same scale after Woody and Buzz papercraft from toy story movies. Jessie the yodeling cowgirl in the movie is one of rare toys of the roundup gang. I still use flat joints for Jessie just like Woody papercraft has and also it has the same display stand with a little modification.
Both arms and legs are use the same flat joints like woody has, you can see woody instructions on his joints here. Joints for her arms are parts number 42 and her legs are parts number 43. 15+39 means that part is an assembly of part 15 and 39. Roll part 15 until it formed a cylinder and roll part 39 into solid rolled paper and insert it inside part 15 then press both ends so you will have a bulged shoulder (please refer to woody instructions)
There are many ways to attach her arms to her body. On this picture you can see how arms attached to her body, this way you cannot move her arms, unless you want to display her arm pose on this position.
Finish head parts first then attach her hat and glue it at the desire position.

Looking Back
December 30, 2010 in World 022 News, World News
This week is the last week of another year and I want to take you back, to this time last year to take a look at the Tribe Dominance Map.
This was the map for the 30th of December 2010.
This is one taken a year ago in September.
Interesting isn't it. Two things cywaatch my attention. First, the expansion of XXXX, I know XIII disbanded and all that but you still have to credit their growth. Secondly, $CoD$'s growth, or lack of growth. They are now 1 tribe not 2 but still hold less ground.
It brings out a tear to see good old -ACT- on the map again. (They were my first proper tribe)
Anyway, sob story over, it's time to look at the present and certainly someone in the spotlight right now is one of $CoD$'s best. It's MythicEpidemic.
Ultimatum X: The war between XXXX and $CoD$ is comming to an interesting phase. How confident are you of keeping your K75?
MythicEpidemic: Interesting indeed. I never thought when the war first started that XXXX would be on my doorstep in a mere 8 months, but alas here they are. I'm confident in the fact that it will be a tough battle as it has always been on my other fronts but other than that it just depends on how much effort XXXX is willing to use on me to take k75.
Ultimatum X: Many members of XXXX and around the world say your one of, if not the best defenders in the game, and the stats show that. What makes you better than the rest?
MythicEpidemic: *blush* Well, I wouldn't say I was the best defender in the game thank you though. I have always told people the key to defending yourself consists of 4 elements: (1)Having enough time to dodge nukes and kill nobles, (2)having a good enough computer and internet connection to snipe the tight trains, (3)knowing where your support is at all times, and finally (4)tagging ALL incomings and being able to recognize your opponent's attack strategy/patterns. After practicing these techniques for the better part of 3 years I think I can say I have sufficient skill at most of these elements. That is most likely why I am a successful defender.
Ultimatum X: I talk to people, quite a lot and whenever your the topic, you can be described as ruthless, how would you describe yourself?
MythicEpidemic: LOL ruthless eh? I suppose I would say that I am persistent when I have the time to be.
Ultimatum X: Finally, If you had the oportunity to join XXXX, what would you do?
MythicEpidemic: There is a time and place for everything. Right now they are my enemies and I would not let down my tribe when they need me the most. If $COD$ ever disbanded, then I would join them if they wanted to have me as a tribemate.
Unfortunately this will be the last blog for this year but then there is only a few hours left of this year.
See you in 2011,

Hands-On with Google Wallet
May 26, 2011, 2:14 PM by Rich Brome
updated May 26, 2011, 2:16 PM
A quick tour of Google Wallet in action, using a Samsung Nexus S 4G for Sprint.
We saw a quick demo of the Google Wallet app, in use buying a soda at a vending machine. It's very simple, apparently merely transmitting the credit card number (and expiration date, etc.) to the vending machine.
Also shown is a bit of the Google Wallet interface, including last transaction amount, card balance, and the screen to add money to your Google ("GCard") prepaid account:

Theater Preview
As Milwaukee Shakespeare makes its way off the stage at the end of the 2007-'08 season, the company is taking on one of the Bard's more challenging plays, Cymbeline. The play, which opens March 22, can be difficult to define in terms of Shakespeare's other work. Some historians have looked at the convoluted nature of the plot and come to the conclusion that Shakespeare merely wrote it to amuse himself.

Caterpillar Inc. Vice President Gary Stroup retiring
Posted By Tina Grady Barbaccia On August 19, 2011 @ 9:27 am In eRoadPro Newsletter,Industry,Press Releases | No Comments
Caterpillar Inc. Vice President Gary Stroup, 62, will retire following a career of more than 39 years with the company.
Stroup has been a Caterpillar vice president since 1992, and currently has responsibility for the Large Power Systems Division. A replacement for Stroup will be named prior to the end of the year.
"Gary's transformational leadership has been critical to the success and profitability of our engine business as it has evolved and changed over the last 10 years to meet ever increasing customer and regulatory requirements," said Gerard Vittecoq, Caterpillar Group President with responsibility for Energy and Power Systems, in a written statement. "His talent, expertise, passion and professionalism as a leader during his career have been matched by his focus on customers and developing people within Caterpillar."
Stroup previously served as a Caterpillar vice president with responsibility for Solar Turbines Incorporated, vice president with responsibility for the Component Products Division and vice president with responsibility for the Mining & Construction Equipment Division and general manager of the Hauling Units and Motor Grader Business Unit. He joined Caterpillar in 1972 as a machine shop trainee and held a number of positions with increasing responsibility in manufacturing before being named manager of the transmission business unit in 1990.

The "Blown Away" artist kicked off the rumors that she and Paisley would return for another go-around, tweeting on August 1, "Hanging out with @bradpaisley today. Just caught him in my make up chair. #suchadiva." An even better, more mysterious tweet followed: "Ask @bradpaisley why he just lost $100 to me!"
Last year, the singers teamed up for a live performance of their single, "Remind Me", though we think their best moment came from their memorable bit with The Muppets star Miss Piggy.

I noticed this freak bud yesterday, does anyone else still have any flowers or buds on their camillas? I think it has something to do with the weather being not warm enough this spring. The plant is Nuccio's Pearl, and its a dwarf pink Camilla. It's the first plant to start blooming in the winter and the last to stop and it has more blooms then the rhododendrons. |

If you are attending a lovely gathering this summer season, you will look a lot cooler with super sick shot glasses like those seen in the 7 Deadly Sins series. Unique shot glasses always make a statement, and these temptingly blasphemous shooters make a strong one.
The use of religion in pop culture is frequent now, and though these shot glasses serve as a small way of getting in on this pattern, they still allow for some form of participation. Plus, I'm sure some sort of deliciously devilish drinking game can be formulated around these glasses.
The 7 Deadly Sins Shot Glasses may not connect you with the Holy Spirit, but they will get you in the spirit of partying.
