I'm hoping someone here can provide some guidance. I'm building a new house and I wanted a 4 panel door to our outside lanai without jambs between the middle double doors and the stationary doors. (Stationary - Double Doors - Stationary) I ordered the doors through 84 lumber and I told the salesman I wanted it to look just like it was on their website. http://www.thermatru.com/products/patio/french-hinged-patio-doors/index.aspx Well after I received the doors they said that configuration (like the one shown on the website) will not actually work. All 4 panels are stationary! I was amazed and felt that it was false advertising. Neither 84 lumber or ThermaTru would allow me to return the $3800 worth of patio doors (Classic Craft Mahogany). So the question is can I remove the jambs between the double door and the stationary panels and just hinge to the stationary panel? Assuming I build my own header and firmly attach the stationary panels to the one piece header and 1 side jamb? I really want this too look like a 4 panel door without the bulky jambs between the double doors and stationary panels. Thanks in advace. |

Short answer, No. Will leak like a sieve water and air if you can even get that far. Those types of doors are a system that is engineered with special hardware for just this application. Your system is 1000% different. That is why I always recommend reputable dealers and or lumberyards and not box stores (yes I consider 84 a box store) for just these types of reasons.. |

That certainly sucks. But the door is under a lanai and I could build a mullion (i think that's what its called) to stop the air. So even that wouldn't work? I was more concerned about it being sturdy enough. |

No it would not. What did you order? What was signed off on? What was proposed? |

Looking at that picture, I see hinges on those "stationary" doors. http://www.johnsonhardware.com/200rd.htm may be the hardware that makes it happen. Or consider a multi-slider |

Lazy, that picture is not stationary french door that is a double french door unit. |

True, but it has no jambs and makes the doors work. :) I think you could open just the two center doors or all four. There are other oddball door hanging systems that might make it look like the OP wants ... |
- Posted by millworkman (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Thu, Mar 28, 13 at 9:05
Yes true but with the existing door "system" I do not know if they can be essentially retrofitted in that manner and still have it be weather tight. |

Wow you guys have some neat ideas and I apologize for not looking at this thread for a few days. Its probably also important to mention that this house is built with ICF so I essentially have a concrete house with ~12" walls (6.25" concrete and 2.5" of styrofoam insulation on both sides.) I do think that a large opening to the Lanai would be really really cool. In case you want to see a 3D rendering of the home I'm building you can see it in the link. |

Let me also mention that I would be ok with a sliding door or folding door system as long as I don't have too look at the big bulky door jambs and it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg. |
There are numerous ways you could have such a door set assembled. One of the biggest issues is the weight hanging on the final set of hinges to the house framing. Putting some casters at the hinge points and ends of the double panels would help take some load off the hinges. Use the right casters and they could likely be hidden in the bottom apron of the doors. You then just need a smooth enough surface t\for them to operate on. i would doubt you will find what you want from a major distributor, but you may be able to purchase pieces as 'slab doors' and than have them modified. Soss hinges in larger sizes would would likely work well, but this is a large movable structure with significant weight. |
- Posted by lazygardens (My Page) on Sat, Mar 30, 13 at 16:32
As long as you are OK with sliders, a stacked slider could get all 4 doors into the space of one when open. Or if it's the jambs blocking a view, the center-supported folding doors might work. You need to talk to a real door company and hardware rep to get more information ... Johnson Hardware might know someone. It's going to be a major source of heat gain or loss, just because of the glass area. What city will this be built in? |

Living in any region, not just near forests, has its dangers
Posted By DP Opinion On April 27, 2013 @ 5:02 pm In Letters | 7 Comments
Re: "Let forest dwellers pay for their own fire protection [1]," April 21 letter to the editor.
Letter-writer Greg Iwan's comments about forest dwellers being held responsible for their fire protection were ridiculous. Following his logic, everyone in an earthquake-prone area and mudslide area (California) should be responsible because they chose to live there. Everyone who chooses to live below sea level (New Orleans) should be responsible. Everyone who chooses to live in Tornado Alley should be on their own. Anyone who builds along a river, on the coasts etc, etc. Try to find a state that doesn't have inherent dangers.

TThe problem is that the folks who choose to live in the mountains also generally choose not to implement recommended fire abatement "suggestions" (I forget whether the recommendation is to clean out underbrush near the dwelling for a 20′ or 30′ distance around the house) – generally whining that "I moved to the mountains to be near nature" or "I wanted to get away from the city" while expecting that MAGICALLY, fire departments would be as close as in the city. While I understand that the winds in last summer's fires made a bad situation worse, so did the NEGLIGENCE of the homeowners – and I find myself wondering if the state, which an article last week stated was going to pay some homeowners over and above the amount authorized by statute looked at Google Earth photos of the properties to see if the homeowners had "done their part" to minimize the damage. If not, those homeowners shouldn't get a DIME!

That is absolutely true……which is why those who live in those areas should pay for those resources and things they need that is specific to the area they choose to live in.
Forest fires is a logical and reasonable threat to those who live in the forest. Flooding is a logical and reasonable threat to those who live by rivers that have a tendency to overrun its banks…….or who live behind levees in New Orleans. Earthquakes are a logical and reasonable threat to those who live in certain areas of California. Hurricanes are a logical and reasonable threat to those in certain areas of Florida, Texas, and other states.
It's is NOT logical and reasonable to simply say "Hey, every area has some 'problem…..so let's treat everyone equally and 'share' the problems 'equally'…….when every area has logical and reasonable threats that may be unique to that area and that is not shared across the

They already do Sue, they're called taxes. Everybody pays taxes and the level of service associated with those payments are often tied to their size. That said, it's one thing to require homeowners to take mitigating action to minimize fire danger; it's quite another to be subjected to a devastating fire because of the negligence or malfeasance of the same public employees our taxes pay to protect us. That's the issue of compensation, not whether or not homeowners took adequate steps to protect their homes.
#4 Comment By Stephen Blecher On April 28, 2013 @ 9:38 am
I accepted Sue Jaen's challenge, and downloaded a list of all 50 states. I went through the whole list and I could name one or more natural disasters in every state. That's why the Federal Government plays a big role in disaster relief.
#5 Comment By peterpi On April 28, 2013 @ 11:56 am
Blame the government, I like that. Well, the same government warned about fire danger to homeowners moving into the forests. The government informed homeowners about mitigating steps they could take. I bet some of those governments wanted to impose certain conditions on the home bulders, but the home builders either screamed "free market! no tyranny!" or finagled their way around the conditions.
It's the government's fault, LOL
#6 Comment By primafacie On April 29, 2013 @ 9:12 am
Point taken and seconded.
But it was some manner of government employee or contractor who let a control burn get away in one of last summer's fires. Of course, they busted hump to put it out.
#7 Comment By holyreality On April 30, 2013 @ 1:34 pm
I have a client who lives on a mesa of dry western woodlands who's transplanted home has over a dozen old (150-300 yrs) trees within sparking distance from his house, one he proudly built on his spare time and dime.
Part of my service requires that I instruct him to ensure his family's safety by removing these beautiful Ponderosa, Pinion, and Cedars.
His answer was one I agree with, those trees are worth more than my crummy house. I can rebuild after a burn.
PS, I thought the recommended defensible space was a 100′ radius, something a property value minded individual would use when trees are worth less than their crummy house.

Modern architects and engineers face the challenge of creating indoor environments that fulfill the dual goals of user satisfaction and energy performance. Creating an appropriate climate is essential to personal comfort, productivity and occupant satisfaction. Yet, the question remains – why do so many buildings consistently fail to meet these two needs?
Stewart Brand has a great quote in his book, How Buildings Learn:
"Almost no buildings adapt well. They're designed not to adapt; also budgeted and financed not to, constructed not to, administered not to, maintained not to, regulated and taxed not to, even remodeled not to. But all buildings … adapt anyway, however poorly, because of the usage in and around them are changing constantly."
One solution to this problem is to create more intelligent personalized devices – ones which can learn about how you use a space and adapt to your needs. Read More at Objet

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)A picture with Elvis is worth more than a thousand words
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
December 5th, 2011 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) There's no mistaking the young Elvis, giving his trademark whiplash smile to the camera. A beautiful brunette, who just so happened to be Elvis' Tennessee sweetheart, likewise gives a radiant smile. The woman is Barbara Hearn Smith, who has thoughtfully inscribed the photo that is now framed in the men's room of a Naples, Florida restaurant called BrickTop's. There's quite a story behind the photo. "For Presley aficionados, the name Barbara Hearn is as historic as that of Martha Washington or Betsy Ross or Mary Todd Lincoln. She was Elvis's hometown girlfriend in Memphis at the beginning of 1956, just before his career hit the stratosphere." What did the autograph say? "A closer inspection of the handwriting revealed that she was saying she had dined at another BrickTop's, in Nashville, Tennessee." Greene tracked Smith down "at the Holly Tree Manor Bed and Breakfast in Trenton, Tennessee, which she and her husband of 50 years, Jim Smith, own and run. She's 74, and she laughed out loud when I told her where I had found her photo. "'Well, I suppose it's all right if my name is on a restroom wall,' she said. 'It's better than if my phone number was up there.' Smith and her husband had been having lunch at the BrickTop's in Nashville when a waiter had overheard them talking about Elvis. The waiter said that the owner of the restaurant was a huge Presley fan. "Jim Smith went out to their car, where he knew there was a photo of Elvis and Barbara; he brought it into the restaurant, and she signed it so the waiter could give it to the boss when he came in." The owner, who runs all six BrickTop's locations, had copies made of the photo, and ordered that they be put in frames and hung in the men's and women's restrooms of all his restaurants. "Why not play Elvis's music in the restaurants themselves -- why just in the bathrooms? 'It would drive some customer's nuts to hear it for so long. In the restrooms, you're just there for a few minutes.'" Hearn says she first met Elvis when she was working at Goldsmith's Department Store in Memphis with a friend named Dixie Locke, who was dating Presley. When Dixie and Elvis went their separate ways, he asked Barbara if he could take her out. "People sometimes say that Elvis and I went steady for a year," she told me. "I always correct them. I went steady with Elvis for a year. Elvis? Well, he didn't go steady with anyone." There is a famed photograph, taken by Alfred Wertheimer inside the home on Audubon Drive in Memphis that Presley shared with his parents. In the photo, Barbara is prim in a white dress with dark polka-dots; Elvis is slouched and shirtless. Soon Elvis went to Hollywood; by the end of that year, he would be bringing Natalie Wood to Memphis to meet his parents. "I didn't hold it against him at all," Barbara told me. "If the roles had been reversed, and I had been the one to go to Hollywood and I'd met Gregory Peck, I would have brought Gregory Peck back to Memphis with me."

BandFuse: Rock Legends attempts a music game with real guitars ... again {Joystiq}
Feb 22nd 2012 2:28PM I really don't understand why Joystiq's writers seem to have a vendetta against Rocksmith. Even from Joystiq's headline on the Rocksmith review, "Drop D-minus," they set a negative tone about the entire experience (yet gave the game a mildly passable score.)
I make my living as a music teacher, and I think that Rocksmith is incredible. Yes, the menu interface is cludgy and it had a handful of bugs before the patch, but nothing can override the fact that it WORKS. It ACTUALLY tracks what you're playing on the guitar EVERY SINGLE TIME and has some pretty darn good amp modeling to go along with it! I've got a bachelor's in music education and Rocksmith has made me a significantly better musician.
The game does exactly what it sets out to do, and it never claims to do anything else. It allows you to play a varied repertoire of rock on a real guitar and has a pretty easy to follow system of showing you how to play it.
No, it does not teach you musical notation, but that's a completely different task that frankly is significantly less fun than actually playing the guitar. No, it doesn't substitute for a real human being sitting with you for hours and showing you exactly what about your technique needs improving, but it sure does let you practice.
Maybe it's my profession that gets me so upset about it, but I feel like Rocksmith should be getting a lot more attention than it's getting now, and it bothers me to see educated gamers like the writers at Joystiq bash this game so fervently when it really does provide an awesome musical experience that nothing else has replicated.

Audi A4 Ignition Coil Problems
willie94 Posts: 2willie94 I had same issues -but my right catalytic converter now failed in my audi A6 2003 But after i had 6 ignition coil replaced Thur recall due to 1 ignition coil went bad. Also cam position sensor went out well as my mass air flow exchange the change over barrel broken between Actuator mechanism and timing belt change. In all 3,155.07. Same here the letter from Audi said not to bring the car in unless the check engine light came on. This happen in August 2010, one coil failed, and also my car was shaking so badly too. That's when I got this fixed and now right Catalytic converters has fail. I'm also interested in a suit.
eglamonte Posts: 1I have a 2004 A4 that has a failed catalytic converter. Both sets of sensors have been replaced and my private mechanic told me that he thought that the catalytic converter should be covered. Sure enough I found on the www.epa.gov site a document stating that all catalytic convertors are mandated to be covered for 8 years or 80,000 miles.Am I mssing something here? I am taking the print-off of this article to the dealer tomorrow to see if they agree.
winslow1 Posts: 1This past Feb. I had my A4 coils replaced due to the recall notice. I have not had any trouble until last week. I started my car and my check engine light came on. I brought the car to a non dealer and was informed my coils needed to replaced. I contacted the dealer since they were just changed in Feb and I was told to bring the car in. Ends up there is a computer update that was issued April 2010. The update addresses cold starts and the coils. Hopefully, this will work. Since the recoil recall did not work for many, Audi must have decided to look further to fix the problem. Shouldn't the enhancement be part of an extended recall?
janice96 Posts: 19
psanta2 Posts: 2They have also lost my repeat business. I have a 2002 A4 which was affected by the ignition coil recall (twice) and now requires both catalytic converters to be replaced (check engine light has been on since about 80,000 mile mark). BTW, the emissions warranty expires at 80,000 miles, so if your check engine light comes on, be sure to get it looked at by the dealer before that point. Too late for me though, Audi refuses to cover the replacement of the catalytic converters because I am well past 80K miles. These things should not fail. I believe it may be related to the ignition coils failing. The cat replacement is costing $2,200 at a neighborhood shop. The dealer would have charged at least $3,400.00.
jakl506 Posts: 1We have a 2004 audi a4 cab with 27,000 miles. obviously not a lot of mileage. we bought an audi thinking it is a dependable/reliable car. recently, it started shaking badly and engine light came on. turns out the ignition coil is the problem. we live 2-hrs away from the closest audi service. after speaking with audi customer care we were told to go ahead and have it fixed at a volkswagen dealer and send the receipt for reimbursement.
5-days later, check engine light is on again and gear indicator is also on. called audi customer care again and was told it is something we now have to deal with the volkswagen dealer since "WE" had it done there. are you f****ing kidding me? this is an a4 cab with ONLY 27,000 miles and ALL these problems? we are not talking about a hyundai here and we are not talking about a car with 100,000 miles in it. and all audi can say is i have to deal with it?
we have a bmw x3 with 118,000 miles on it (knock on the wood) it hasn't given us this big of a problem. AND this i told audi customer care. i got the same response... can't do anything about it ... i have to deal with it with the dealer that fixed it.
homeseph Posts: 1How did it go with the dealer ? I have the same issue with my 2003 Audi A4 3.0 . I know there was a recall for the coils but I feel there is an issue with the Converters. I have an appt tomorrow morning with Audi to replace the coils but I really hope there isn't any issue with the converters . Can you assist me with getting a copy of that document ?
tam_e Posts: 2Today my dealer says the check engine light is because of a bad catalytic converter because of a check engine light. 2002 A4 3.0 has already had one catalytic converter replaced at 56k miles and now they want ANOTHER one at 106K? Does anyone know if the 8/80K federal law on converters applies to replaced parts? 2 ignition coils replaced, the last just this past May (part of the recall), multiple sensors, complete engine rebuild of the left cams after a service appt, timing belt, water pump, etc. etc. the list is too long! This car is a money pit! I have never owned or know anyone who has owned a car where the catalytic converter goes bad, let alone TWICE on one vehicle!
bjbrooks Posts: 11Not surprised at all. You have had the same repairs that I have had, but I can also throw in the windshield wiper motor blowing out TWICE. Audi sucks. I will never buy another one and will do all I can to discourage anyone else from buying one. To answer your question, though, I do not know for sure, but the law should apply to replaced parts, too. Your new part only has 50k miles on it. My check engine light has been on for 5 years, and after every repair it comes right back on. Audi will not even admit that there is a relationship between the bad ignition coils and the cat con. Expect your other ignition coils to go out, too.
tam_e Posts: 2I don't expect that as they already have been replaced TWICE under 2 different recalls. However, now that I have no expectations where Audi is concerned, only bitter disappointment, I certainly wouldn't be surprised if they needed a third replacement. I'm trying to gather information so that I have data to combat this with the dealership if it comes to that as they still have not given me an estimate and haven't been able to tell me exactly what all is wrong except the code for a bad converter. I, too, will never buy another one even with their generous offer of $1500 for loyalty buyers that my dealership had - doesn't even begin to cover maintenance costs and exasperation.
idahoa4 Posts: 1I have some very useful information on this subject ( ignition coils and cat convertors). These two problems seem to go hand in hand, and maybe you service departments are not explaining the reasons why. First I will assume that the check engine light is not only on, but also blinking.
When an ignition coil fails, and causes a misfire in a cylinder, the fuel is still being injected into that cylinder. That unburned fuel will enter into the exhaust system and will pass through to the catalytic convertor, which is typically MUCH hotter than the rest of the exhaust, by design. This introduction of raw fuel into the catalytic converter causes the destruction of the cat. So if you have had a misfire in the past, it is safe to say that you will be replacing a catalytic convertor in the future.
Back to the blinking check engine light... This "blinking" light is warning you that the catalytic convertor is in danger of "meltdown" ( usually a sure indicator of a cylinder misfire). This situation is not just for Audi's, however. If any of your cars or trucks... American, German, Asian etc. display a "flashing" check engine light, the same problem(s) probably exist. You will probably experience the same after affects as well.
The best thing to do in this scenario, is to get the vehicle off the road and into a service shop ASAP, preferably without the engine running ( to save your catalytic convertor). -
ordeyf Posts: 2Hey All,
I had very similar problems with my Audi (2001 A4) in June and since I am the second owner, I did not get the recall on the coils... I had to get my car towed to my regular body shop and before I knew what the repair was for, they coils were replaced. I called Audi because my mechanic said that my coils were under recall a few years back. I had my repairs done (at my mechanic -not Audi) and then just faxed in a reciept to Audi Customer Care and (although it too several months), I did get a check for the parts and labor... Great Customer Service on Audis part. -
ordeyf Posts: 2So I have owned my Audi for 2 years now and I love it... It has cost me here and there but living in Hawaii, with a car thats 10+ years old, Its going to cost $$...
Two questions:
My heads up display is not working.. Its not completely out because I see traces of information byt so blurred and distorted that I cannot make out that its saying... My car randomly beeps and Im sure with a proper heads up display I would know what its saying... I have been made aware (during an oil change) that my wiper fluid holder is cracked.... So I assume its telling me I need fluid??? I have googled a new display and it requires minor electrical abilities (I have NONE).
So, my first question is: Has anyone had this issue with their heads up display? Is there and easy fix?
Second question: Just yesterday, my car was having a bit of a trying time starting... slight hesitation... I feared the worst! (Had a new alternator put in it in April 2011) Once started, car ran great, no notifications of any problem (but with a non-working head up display ^ who really knows) Got to my destination... and my car sat for a few hours... went out to head on an erron and it started fine (slight hesitation noted) and drove two blocks to the mail box on my way out.. went to start it again and I got the "I have a bad cold" failure. It clicked and attempted to start but nothing...
So: Could this be my battery? OR WORSE???? I had it jumped and it started right up and was great.... got it back to the house, let it run for a bit and then it sat for several hours again.... went out before bed to give it a pep talk and nothing..... it tried but just would not perform.... HELP!!!

text: | Seanad Éireann - Volume 181 - 28 September, 2005 Architectural Heritage. Mr. Coghlan Mr. Coghlan Mr. Coghlan: I warmly welcome the Minister of State at the Department of Education and Science, Deputy de Valera, to the House. No one is in a better position to discuss Muckross House than the Minister of State given her knowledge of that lovely place. I remember her visits to the House in her former capacity as Minister for Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands when she did a wonderful job assisting us, particularly on the occasion of the opening of our garden restaurant. Will she do me a favour and thank the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, Deputy Roche, for his visit to Killarney in July, in particular for signing the new partnership agreement with the trustees of Muckross House and for the launch of the management plan for Killarney National Park? I also thank the Minister, Deputy Roche, for signing the new partnership agreement with the trustees of Muckross House and launching the new management plan for Killarney National Park. 7 o'clock I am pleased that it is intended to retain and preserve the integrity and character of Killarney House, both internally and externally, and to provide for visitor access to certain parts of it as appropriate, in particular the three main furnished reception rooms. To this end, most of the contents of the house have been acquired by the State, including some important furniture and art that dates back to the Earls of Kenmare. I thank the Minister for meeting Killarney Town Council and giving assurances to it, the people of Killarney and the wider public on Killarney House in the course of his visit in July. I would like to hear an update on the situation today. I had concerns about the house given the unfortunate state into which it had fallen and the cost of the necessary restoration works, particularly when it has been in State ownership for so many years and because it is vital to put a halt to the decay. I look forward to hearing how the house will be preserved and the timeframe involved. 78 The Minister knows how important the house and grounds are to Killarney, being such a prominent feature located in the town itself. It has the potential to make a magnificent contribution to the tourism infrastructure of Killarney. The previous management plan, that was sadly not implemented, contained wonderful proposals for [78] the gardens that were specified in detailed accompanying maps. I hope and trust the gardens and grounds will not be neglected either and I look forward to hearing about this aspect. It is a pity that the expertise of the great botanist, Mr. Cormac Foley, was not availed of over the years. He is now with the Office of Public Works but I hope his expertise has not been lost because those were wonderful plans. I have not seen all of the management plan launched by the Minister in July but I would like to know if those plans have been carried forward. Miss de Valera Miss de Valera Miss de Valera: I thank Senator Coghlan for giving me the opportunity to address this matter on behalf of the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, Deputy Roche. The Minister enjoyed his visit to Muckross House and Killarney in July and I am aware of Senator Coghlan's interest in and commitment to Muckross House and the heritage of County Kerry. I am also interested in Muckross House and I am pleased to see my colleague, the Minister, Deputy Roche, has continued that interest. I have enjoyed many visits to Kerry, not least to Muckross House, which were very pleasant. All of us who are interested in heritage know this house is dear to the heart of people of Kerry and it is also a national treasure. Killarney House and the greater part of the accompanying estate was sold to the State in 1978 by the then owner, John McShain, for a sum well below market value, on the assurance that the house and estate would be incorporated into Killarney National Park. Mr. and Mrs. McShain reserved the house and surrounding 52 acres for their use for their lifetimes. Mr. McShain died in 1989 and Mrs. McShain lived in the house until her death in 1998, when use of the House reverted to the State. The house is currently the responsibility of the National Parks and Wildlife Service of the Department, which manages Killarney National Park. There have already been a number of recent works to Killarney House. The golden gates and railings of the house have been restored, a security system has been installed and heating pipes and radiators have been upgraded. The lawns and garden at Killarney House are regularly maintained and small maintenance jobs are carried out on the house. The grounds of Killarney House are already a significant attraction in the town of Killarney. 79 Following recent consultations by the Department with the Office of Public Works, essential works are now under way to avoid any deterioration to the fabric of the building. These works are being funded by the Department and include the removal of plaster on the walls to prevent [79] dampness, the provision of dehumidifiers to all the main rooms on the ground floor and other incidental but highly important trench and draining works. The future use of Killarney House and gardens must be considered within the context of the management plan for Killarney National Park, which was launched at Killarney House in July of this year and which has been endorsed by the Killarney National Park liaison committee. On that occasion it became clear that there is indeed great potential for the refurbishment of the house into a valuable facility for both the national park and the people of Killarney. Under the Killarney National Park management plan, it is intended to retain and preserve the integrity and character of Killarney House both internally and externally and to provide for visitor access to certain parts as appropriate, particularly the three main furnished reception rooms. To this end, most of the contents of the house have been acquired by the Department, including some important pieces of furniture and art dating back to the Earls of Kenmare. Detailed specialist surveys commissioned by the Office of Public Works have made it clear that significant infrastructural works are required. In particular, adequate plumbing, heating and electrical systems must be installed before the house can be opened to the public. The total cost of these works will be considerable. Planning permission for a change of use will also be necessary. A decision on the nature and extent of works to Killarney House will, therefore, depend on the future availability of capital funding, having regard to other demands on the Department's capital budget. The Minister's ambition is to restore the ground floor of this house to its original state of splendour as a further visitor attraction for the town of Killarney and as a reference point for visitors to Killarney National Park. However, it is important to canvass the views of key stakeholders before deciding on the best way forward and, to this end, the Department has recently invited the trustees of Muckross House to come forward with their ideas for the house. The Department is also, of course, seeking the views of the Killarney National Park liaison committee itself on this matter. The Minister welcomed the opportunity to hear the views of Killarney town councillors when he met them in Killarney House in July. 80 The Minister is committed to ensuring that Killarney House fulfils its potential and has asked that the Department work closely with the Office of Public Works in deciding upon a phased work programme for the house, having regard to the [80] availability of resources and the views of key stakeholders. Mr. Coghlan Mr. Coghlan Mr. Coghlan: I thank the Minister of State for that response. I am pleased that the essential works are under way. Everyone in Killarney is agreed on the future usage of the house and hopefully the necessary funding can be provided in the Estimates for 2006. Seanad Éireann 181 Architectural Heritage.

In East St. Louis.
EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (KMOV.com) -- The Memorial Day Weekend has been filled with violence in East St. Louis.
Posted on May 27, 2012 at 7:11 PM
Updated today at 7:45 PM
A man was shot and killed at a barbecue on Saturday. Another man was shot and killed early Sunday morning walking between bars. And about an hour later, 3 people were shot at a market.
All the violence follows the "Stop the Violence" rally in East St. Louis on Friday featuring the parents of Trayvon Martin.
East St. Louis Police said they were not able to gather much information concerning Dotson's murder. The police and Mayor Parks are asking for the public's help.
"Support them. Give them the information they need," Parks said. "Forget about this thing of 'no snitching,' that's crazy. I guess the time when it really matters to someone is when they lose a loved one."
My Comments: Yet another string of random firearms violence caused by Law Abiding people who actually go through background checks and training to get licenses, NOT! Really, I'm just joking there........

JCB was begun in Brambles, England. Over the years the product line has expanded. The JCB loader has been joined by JCB forklifts, JCB telehandlers, and many other types of construction machinery. JCB has become a global presence with their machinery. American Industrial Transmission has become a global presence with their remanufacturing skills.
JCB designed a series of transmissions for their various pieces of equipment, plus they are selling their transmission line to other equipment manufacturers. For a time JCB marketed the transmissions as International Transmissions Ltd (ITL) but they have reverted to their corporate name.
The data tag is found attached to the side of each JCB transmission. It gives a number with three digits, a space, and three more digits. This number is the model number. The first 3 digits should be followed by a slash mark, and the second three digits need to have 3 zero's added. The next set of numbers is the serial number of the transmission.
449/375 200016 Is read as Model 449/375000, serial number 200016
American Industrial Transmission does not have good coverage for transmission rebuild kits on JCB designed transmissions. Each one is unique, and both the clutches and the bearings are different from one part number to the next.
Instead, we concentrate on remanufacturing JCB transmissions and torque converters. Each JCB transmission is fully cleaned, inspected for wear, and rebuilt to meet or exceed the original specs. We dyno test each transmission to insure the function and performance. We check for leaks, shift time, and noise levels. You can be assured that you will be receiving a high quality product from AIT.
AIT rebuilds JCB torque converters. We process each converter individually. Rebuilding can be done in 48 hours. The runout and the tolerance will be held to minimum tolerance.
Whether you have a JCB brand machine, or a machine that uses a JCB transmission, AIT is happy to quote the cost and delivery time of a remanufactured transmission and remanufactured converter.

It's a lovely clean and comfortable hotel in a smashing location. We've stayed at several places in a similar price bracket but now just stay at the Wyndham if we can. Just never had anything to complain about.
Everything about this hotel was excellent in the eyes of a quite discriminating couple. Surprisingly modern and spotless on the edge of a not so clean area of the city. The staff was so kind and helpful. We definitely want to come back to stay here again, top notch!
There is nothing negative we could find with this lovely hotel. Even the 9th floor windows inside and out were clean!
I loved everything about this hotel. It's pretty and renovated on the inside, and it's quiet. I had a downtown view and the balcony wrapped around. The room was bigger than I thought it would be, so that was quite nice. I would definitely stay here again.
The only thing I wasn't 100 percent on board with it was more like 95 percent was the location. It was close to the Brooklyn bridge and little Italy. Chinatown isn't as clean as some of the other areas but if you walk a couple blocks it's fine again. The subway is close dro if you don't want a 20 dollar cab ride at three in the morning from uptown you probably won't like the area as cab prices only go up from there. I really did not mind staying there but I wouldn't recommend taking the subway anytime passed one and walking around but that's really anywhere in NYC, like I said I would stay again!
This hotel looks like it doesn't belong here in the heart of Chinatown, but it is so nice, affordable, near Little Italy, SoHo, and public transport. Also charming Chinatown restaurants and bars within walking distance. The hotel was clean, affordable, and the staff were nice. My room even had a balcony with incredible views of the Empire State Building.
On site restaurant closed very early on Sunday night. But besides that I'm going there again soon, but with my family.
Reception and cleaning staff very friendly Very clean hotel Comfortable bed and nice size room
Location, too far from attractions Hotel food choice very limited restaurant staff very remote
The Price The location The amenities
The room was a little small but the price and the location made up for it.
Well I made the reservation for three people and they only gave us one bed no sofa bed that was the only bad thing
It's surprising when you see this building in the middle of the Chinatown. Made of glass among chinese shops and restaurants. Modern hotel with good price relation to its location. Located in Manhattan but not with so high prices. Easy access to busess and subway give you opportunity to visit most of the interesting places in NYC. Brooklyn bridge within walking distance
Waiter at breakfast. Always had problems and he looked at us as we had killed his family. Rest of the personnel was very friendly and nice.
Bordering Little Italy, within walking distance of Broadway, the Freedom Building, Brooklyn Bridge etc... Yet very quiet, private with unobstructed views of Manhattan and famous buildings! The cocktail bar also good.
On our first morning we tried the restaurant below ground: very dark for that time of the day! The coffee was almost cold... My husband asked for eggs: how basic is that for b/fast!!! they had run out of eggs and that was at about 8.00!!! The service was poor and uncaring: what a let down for such a beautiful modern hotel that has so much to offer! We walked out and found a little place that had everything and more with excellent service! We went back every morning and were never disappointed: on the contrary!!!
I loved the view from the 12th floor, the room was cozy.
The room temp was cold at night, even though we turned the heat all the way up, it was cold
We were happy with the location, 1 mile walk to NYU. Hotel was clean and comfortable. Room was large by NYC standards
We stayed on the second floor, windows facing Bowery and it was somewhat noisy. Try to stay on a higher level floor. The bathroom is very small.
Clean, modern rooms friendly staff location - close to metro, Chinatown and Little Italy views from rooftop
Like most NY hotels, rooms can be relatively small Being on a busy intersection, front and lower level rooms can be somewhat noisy
New, nice and design hotel. not to noisy (we stayed in the 12th floor) with a beautiful view of the city. not so far from the subway station I would recommend this hotel to my friends.
Location, wifi, didn't use the 18 floor lounge bar, but gather has a good view. Sweets at Halloween. Proximity to subway and frequency of cabs
Being asked to pay a tip by the car service for simply providing a service. Couldn't even speak American and know which terminal. No drop off area meant driving to the hotel is not easy.
Loved the location and cleanliness. Loved everything except the terrible breakfast... Worst breakfast I've ever had at any hotel, and one of the Young waiters needs training in customer care. Desk staff were helpful
Bad breakfast, poor choice, not welcoming restaurant
Hotel was about 2 blocks from subway, so very convenient - can get anywhere. Bed was very comfortable - great sleep. Room was clean. Staff very helpful and freindly. Ordered room service for breakfast - Quick, food was hot, tasted good. There is a rooftop bar but we did not get to go. I would stay here again.
The only thing that I would change was that on the way to the subway you need to pass a fish market and the smell is not the best.
When we arrived we were upgraded to 15th floor adjoining rooms with a common balcony. It was the highlight of our trip! The view was amazing! Plus the room was exceptionally clean and very comfortable. The staff (especially Janice at the front desk) were very friendly and accommodating.
The only drawback was the parking. It is valet parking only and we were not aware of this until our arrival. It took a while to figure it out and it was hard to pull up in front of the hotel because we were heading south. We had to continue south and work our way back to the front of the hotel. It is not a big deal but it would have been nice to know this prior to our arrival. I called ahead to ask about parking and was told it was $45/day but no mention of valet. It took about 20 minutes for them to bring the car around upon our departure.
Convenient to Chinatown. Very clean. Nice toiletries provided. Check-in staff.
Great location next to Chinatown and SoHo. Fab views from our 15th floor balcony!! Good rooms with excellent bathrooms, comfortable beds. Helpful staff, especially Janice who was professional and courteous.
Lack of decent in-house restaurant, although there are countless Italian and Chinese within a short walk. Breakfast was rubbish - avoid.
Proximity to subway station. Nice lively neighbourhood. Pleasant staff. Nice restaurants within 5 minutes walking distance. Great view, at least from out room.
Great location. Good breakfast (oatmeal porridge, egg & bacon and french toast among available choices). Large room!
The hotel is a walkable distance to Soho, Greenwich Village, Little Italy and Chinatown.
The uptown subway is not easily accessed from the location.
Clean, well-appointed/modern & quiet rooms. Roof-deck and sky lounge. Very helpful staff! Close to B-D subway.
Lobby or sky lounge should have had a coffee service for guests. In-room coffee makers very so-so.

Over the years I had a lot of seedlings that seemed to die off, now re-emerging without readable name tags of course...I am puzzled as to what this plant could be, it looks like a tree seedling but I am not really sure. Anyone has an idea? |

marijuana? the leaves certainly look suspicious. |

Fear not! Looks like a mulberry tree to me. |
Oh thank you! :D Does it have invasive roots I wonder..and how did I ever end up having a mulberry in here, that is a question. :)) |
It's a mulberry and was probably "bird planted", pooped out by a bird sitting on the fence. Get rid of it. |
Too bad, the seedling looks nice and healthy. Why exactly it's a bad choice to leave it be? |

Sep 10, 2013 4:53 PM by Kathrene Herndon, KSBY News
Three people, including a child, were injured Tuesday morning after their SUV crashed near Vandenberg Air Force Base.
It happened around 8:30 a.m. on Highway 1 North near Santa Lucia Canyon.
Santa Barbara County Fire officials say the SUV was 25 to 30 feet off the roadway and on its side in a ravine.
Two women had to be extricated from the SUV and officials say people in the area removed the child, who was still strapped in a car seat.
Fire officials say the child suffered moderate injuries and the two women had critical injuries.
All three were taken to the hospital.

Hello! I just finished a new zine, which I wrote for the Brooklyn Zine Fest. It's called Anxiety Toolkit, and it's a perzine where I list fifteen tools I use to diminish anxiety. It's self-printed, on six different types of paper. I sell it for $2. What a deal! I'm also happy to do trades.
Reach me here: firstname.lastname@example.com
Find the zine here: www.sleepingcreatures.com

My fellow Americans. The June issue of The Last Word is now pub, but it's only a 4-page affair, thanks to the boredom of the past couple months.
Despite this, I still managed to fit some hilarity into this ish, such as a recent trip to Georgia, an uproarious special report on forfeited baseball games, a person peeing on a slide at a local park, and other important news!
So read The Last Word before it reads you...
I have a new Vapour Trails 'zine out. It's called Ethnicity & Existentialism (it's not philosophical, but it is about race and representation, as well as my personal experiences as a mixed person of colour living in Canada and in Western Africa [I'm also not African]). It's a little all over the place, but it took a long time to put together. Each page's background is painted with watercolours and it is 21 half-sized pages.
It's $4 for this 'zine, and I have copies of my cat comics again as well, which are available for $3 and $2:
This is my first zine ever. It's called Sweatpants in Public. It's a punk/hardcore fanzine with some funny stories and opinions about life thrown in. In this issue I have interviews with Wolf-face and Benny the Jet Rodriguez and I also just talk about some of my favorite bands. It is 14 pages not including the front and back cover and it is printed on purple paper. E-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com or message me if you want to trade!
My first perzine, Veill, is ready for sale or trade!
Twenty pages including cover, size A5, computer font and manual typewriter font (Olympia Traveller), stapled.
In this first issue: poetry; analogue photographs taken with an ancient Russian Zenit 122; personal prose with anxiety disorder and genderqueer more or less as thread.
Started on 23/06 last, first print run on 04/07, please contact me for sale or trade at email@example.com!
If you're waiting on the edge of your seat for your face to fall off in laughter, the suspense is over, because the July ish of The Last Word is now pub!
This edition talks about a recent road trip full of restroom vandalism, how scary movies helped make America the home of the brave, people defecating on the floor at an EPA office, and more!
So point it here, peeps...
Issue #8 of "Welcome to the Cultural Aether" is done and ready to ship! This issue is a little different than past issues. It's quarter size instead of half size like past issues were. But the biggest difference is the content: the collages inside are made almost entirely of images and word bubbles clipped from old Marvel Comics. The issue also comes with a button (we had a bunch of superhero themed ones left over from an old project, so each issue has a random one put in).
Orders can be sent to:
The Cultural Aether
2440 E. Tudor Rd #364
Anchorage, AK 99507
The cost for the nest issue is 1$. And as always for an extra 3$ we will send off the oldest three issues we still have.
Shipping is included in the cost, unless you are outside of the U.S. If you are just drop an extra dollar in the order.
Also if you run a zine library or want to review the zine we are more than happy to send you one for free, just send us a message on here.
The Stay At Home Girlfriend # 9 - vegan recipes, cat love, vegan guide to nola and more!

The acoustic solo act who handles arena shows all by himself.
Take a look here to see if Ed Sheeran is showing somewhere nearby
How does a school geek, famed for his ginger hair and massive blue specs, go on to win the support of the hard-to-please grime scene and bag hoards of screaming females along the way? Welcome to the Ed Sheeran School of folk acoustic hip-hop thought.
Since he was younger, Ed had always wanted to make music, with a promising drive that is sometimes lacking in his peers, he has set out to continuously write and record his own songs with a fever that has earned him his place as a household name today.
With warm, lyrical melody that can have a sharp bite, he has traversed the folk-hip hop scene and emerged as a major player, selling out concerts almost immediately after the release of breakthrough single 'The A Team' and has gone on to work with some of the hottest and most in demand contemporary artists.
2010 saw Ed take a one way flight to America with little more than one contact, and manage to land up be-friending Jamie Foxx, who let him use his recording studio once he'd heard Sheeran at an open mic night in NYC.
Now, 4 years later, Sheeran doesn't have to scramble at open mic nights any more, as his collaborations have included writing for One Direction and duetting with new BFF Taylor Swift.
A truly moving performer, there is heart and humour and an incredible spirit about Ed and it's most definitely worth seeing!

We also read this Freddy book about Groundhog's Day and the kids really enjoy it. It is a simple story about a groundhog that lives under Freddy's porch.
I usually try to have at least one fun snack a week and this is my silly attempt at a groundhog! Although these bear buns were just adorable and could easily pass for a groundhog - I wasn't in the mood to bake the last couple days, so the standby ritz (and baby ritz) crackers, peanut butter, and raisins came out! My 5 year old said that it looks more like a bear, and I agree, but asked her to use her imagination and to just eat it!!! Do let me know if there are some other cute Groundhog day snack ideas!
We had a lot of shadow puppet play this week! It encourages creative thinking and is a great way to talk about shadows. We also played outside at different times during the day and talked about how our shadow changes depending on where the sun is. My 2 year old just stares at me and then will repeat a word like "shadow," so I don't really know exactly how much he does or does not understand! I just know that vocabulary is so important in life and learning to read. Maybe he doesn't get it this time, but I know that he is building these little vocabulary files in his head and that they will make connections when he is ready! More Groundhog Day crafts here.
And don't worry, I don't just do crafty/ cutesy projects all week. We have a LOT of outside free play, open ended art projects, dirt play, Legos and pretend play too. These are just as, if not more important for toddler development!!!! Remember - it really doesn't matter WHAT you do with your kids, just that you ARE doing it with your kids. YES, it is easier have them watch a television show, but if you take that time to snuggle up and read or play with them - you are making so much more of a connection with them. And I believe that parents are not told enough of what an amazing job they are doing. If you are reading this and you are playing with your kid this week - you rock! Give yourself a hug, a smile, or maybe a cup of hot-chocolate as a treat. You are amazing!!!!!

Empact Review
What You Should Know
Click Here To See Our Highest Rated Review
Whether you're an athlete, dieter or bodybuilder, preparing the body for working out is important. The average dieter can drink water or take a pre-workout supplement with caffeine or other stimulant to give them energy during the workout. Athletes and bodybuilders push the body beyond normal limits, so a pre-workout shake mix is ideal. Empact is designed for athletes and bodybuilders, but the ingredient list is lacking compared to other pre-workout products. The first ingredient is a natural laxative, not what most people want to take before working out. We found no stimulant like caffeine to boost energy, but we did find electrolytes. Electrolytes are typically consumed after working out to restore balance and rehydrate the body. Sugar is another huge ingredient in this product and sugar means quick energy followed by hunger.
List of Ingredients
Aloe Vera, Arabinogalactan, Calcium Citrate, Choline Bitartrate, Fructose, Ghatti Gum, L-Carnitine, Magnesium Aspartate, Magnesium Succinate, Medium Chain Triglycerides, Potassium Aspartate,
Potassium Succinate, Silicon Dioxide and Soy Lecithin.
Product Features
The official website for Mannatech Science, the creator of Empact, offers no information on the product. There is a list of ingredients and scientific information about each ingredient. There is no explanation of how the supplement is supposed work and there are no testimonials or reviews of the supplement. It looks like the page is designed for professionals selling Empact as there is no place to order the product.
- May support energy during a workout.
- Designed to support athletes and bodybuilders.
- All ingredients are listed on the official website.
- Detailed descriptions of each ingredient is provided by Mannatech Science.
- The supplement is not available for sale from Mannatech.
- The formula does not contain any of the ingredients commonly found in pre-workout shakes.
- Contains sugar.
- No product description on the official website.
Pre-workout shakes are a good option for people of all fitness levels. The ingredients in the shake will change from one sport to the next. A dieter will not consume creatine and a bodybuilding in the bulking phase will not consume a fat burner with appetite suppressant, but there are solutions for everyone. Mannatech Science Empact contains ingredients typically used as foundation ingredients in other pre-workout shakes, but the meat of the shake is just not there. This product needs a stimulant and creatine if it is aimed at bodybuilders.
Mannatech Science offers some interesting solutions for weight loss and overall health, but they missed the mark on this supplement. The use of a laxative in a pre-workout shake is just a bad idea. Imagine pushing to lift a one-rep max with a laxative in the body. Not exactly the pretty image.
