We would like to include beams on the ceiling in some rooms of our new house. These wouldn't be structural beams, but just for aesthetic purposes. As I've been looking at pictures online, I notice that the beams sometimes look way too large for the space and stand out too much, but on the other hand sometimes look far too small, almost like toothpicks on the ceiling. Does anyone know of any guidelines or rules of thumb for beam sizing in relation to room size and ceiling height? If anyone has pictures and would be willing to post with the room size, ceiling height, and size of beams that would be great. Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I used my home designer software to test out beam sizes in relationship to the space and other benchmarks, and it helped a lot. We have 9' ceilings. The kitchen is roughly 11' x 14'. The large beam against the sink wall is a 8" x 8" beam, 11' in length. The beam over the fridge cabinets is 8" x 8" about 7' in length and then the 16' length over the DR/LR. The small beams in the kitchen are 4" high by 6" wide and about 11' long and about 3' inbetween. These are all fake beams added after the ceiling was finished. They are from Virtual Timbers. We bought them unfinished and stained them and would highly recommend them to anyone. |
Thanks brickton, that is very helpful information. I think your beams look perfectly sized. I remember an earlier post about your beams, and have the Virtual Timbers site bookmarked. |

Our kitchen beams are 6x6 with 4x4. The structural beams (between kitchen/breakfast room and kitchen/great room) are 6x12 or 14...Don't recall and too lazy to measure). Posts are 6x6 (still need corbels inside). Great room and MBR beams are 6x12, maybe. I'd have to ask DH. Exterior beams/posts are larger as they are structural and disappear from a distance if too small. |

Thanks allison. Your house is great; I've looked at your pictures several times for inspiration. Can you give me an idea of the sizes of your rooms and ceiling heights? |
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Fri, Sep 2, 11 at 23:07
Thank you. The great room is 24x19, the ceiling peaks at 22'. The MBR is 19x16 and peaks at 18'. Kitchen 12x20 and breakfast room 12x11, with 9' ceilings. |

San Diego, CA – February 28, 2014 – IT Brand Pulse, a trusted source of data and analysis about IT infrastructure, today announced the results of brand leader surveys conducted in January 2014 covering Servers, Converged Systems and Converged Networking. Survey respondents were asked which vendors they perceive as the leader in thirteen product categories: Enterprise Server LOM, Server Virtualization, Enterprise Blade Servers, Industry Standard Servers, Microservers, Enterprise Server Operating Systems, Enterprise Server Processors, Enterprise Server Management, Enterprise Rackmount Servers, Embedded Blade Server Networking, Converged Systems, Converged Network Adapters, and FCoE Switches.
According to Frank Berry, CEO and senior analyst at IT Brand Pulse, "The server used to be 'the system,' supported by storage and networking peripherals. Today, measuring server brand leadership extends to converged systems and converged networks where the three technologies are blended together."
Market share leader NetApp/Cisco FlexPod extended its reach into the brand awards by being tapped as the Converged System Market, Performance, Reliability, Service & Support and Innovation champion. HP's Converged Systems was the Price Leader pick and came in second in all remaining categories. VCE's Vblock captured a third-place Market award.
"IT organizations deploy integrated infrastructure solutions to dramatically speed and simplify the steps to getting infrastructure and applications up and running," says Jim McHugh, vice president of Cisco UCS and solution marketing, Cisco. "Customers have adopted FlexPod because it is based on validated designs utilizing industry leading components from Cisco and NetApp, delivering a fast and low-risk way to implement cloud infrastructure."

************************************************** ****************
Sourkraut and Meatballs
My mother's recipe - my changes in parethesis)
1 can sourkraut (the more sour the better, I think)
1 lb. pork sausage ground (I use ground turkey, ground beef works too)
1/4 cup uncooked white rice (I use 1/2 c)
1 egg
Seasoning to taste
Make balls with meat, egg and rice. Mix well before forming balls. Pour
kraut in pot and cover with two kraut containers of water. You may need
extra water, keep kraut loose. When kraut comes to rapid boil drop in
meat balls one by one and stir carefully into kraut. Cover and cook
slowly about three hours.
(If meatballs break up no big deal. I prefer served over dumplings. You
can make this in a crock pot as well, as I usually do.)

Soured cabbage leaves wrapped around this meat mixture and cooked. I'd
never have the patience to sour the leaves (if I knew how) and make this.

Three events last week connected some dots on Cloud APIs for integration as a service:
- My peer review of Eric Knipp's upcoming case study on New York Time's Open WOA
- A client specifically asked me — "do any B2B integration vendors offer Cloud API's?"
- I spoke with the folks at ECGridOS — who offer a full set of Cloud integration API's
Eric's research tends to focus on how IT end user companies use Open WOA API's. The storyline he's unfolding is that there's real value in API's both from the technology point of view — e.g., to lower technical barriers to implementing collaborative multienterprise processes — and the business point of view — e.g., how API's help companies to tap into "The Collective" of their external constituents to increase insight into their customer's needs — and even their own business.
The same week a Gartner client was speaking with me about their B2B consolidation project — a typical strategic IT initiative focused on consolidating various B2B and Cloud services integration projects onto one shared B2B infrastructure (either via on-premise software or via some form of B2B managed services outsourcing). In our conversation after we'd explored all their options they casually asked me whether any of the B2B integration vendors I cover day-to-day offer a full set of API's into their integration services, much like those publicly available for Force.com, Amazon S3, etc.
That was a great question. I've been following the emerging role of Cloud API's for some time now — see Will WOA API Adoption Kill Integration? and Are You a Victim of "API Slamming"? — but not many clients ask about API's related to integration services in particular very often. A typical use of API's for integration services that I've seen is where B2B providers (e.g., GXS and Hubspan) publish API's for their provisioning engine, e.g., so that IT end users or channel partners can provision new trading partners electronically, e.g., from Microsoft BizTalk into the GXS Trading Network. Or API's to support automated message tracking, i.e., instead of forcing the consumer of integration-as-a-service to login with a browser or run a report.
But most API's for integration-as-a-service are limited in scope — I am not aware of any prominent B2B provider that publishes a full set of API's for their integration services. But Loren Data Corp — a very small Ecommerce provider with a history of OEM'ing basic VAN transport capabilities — has recently deployed a comprehensive set of API's for their integration-as-a-service offering at ECGridOS.net. (As a .NET developer myself I was struck my the breadth and readability of these integration-related API specifications).
Without promoting one provider over another, I found it intriguing to discover such a full set of API's devoted to integration-as-a-service. I wonder if other providers of integration-as-a-service also publish such comprehensive API's. It also makes me think that perhaps other providers — who, Boomi? Cast Iron? Hubspan? GXS? — should also do so in order to better serve the needs of their users.
I will be following this closely, and welcome hearing more from other providers who publish API's specifically for integration as a service. Everyone who knows me knows that I'm not prone to hyperbole, and frankly I consider API's to be simply another incremental opportunity to enhance your overall value to external constituents. But given that Cloud services and the SOA approach to integrating distributed functionality is an enduring, high impact IT scenario I believe that B2B providers *should* be developing an API strategy for exposing their integration as a service functionality. If not immediately, probably soon.
What do you think?

Essay writing can be a painful process sometimes. In such cases reading good samples may be a good solution and essay support. It's so easy.
The concept "nation-state" appeared in the system of international relations in the XVII century, after the Thirty-years war in Europe. The state was identified as the political institution of some ethnos, and the process of transferring sovereignty from the monarch to the people began. The main category, which is in the possession of the state in the realm of international relations, is the national interest. It may be envisaged as a complex of economical, political, cultural, geopolitical, social values, which are relatively constant and which define the foreign policy of the state. National interests express the social, political, and economic motives a nation-state pursue in order to improve its influence and the quality of life of its people. Critical questions when considering national interests include the maintenance of a nation's sovereignty and the preservation and growth of its identity. (more…)

Trying to figure out who will be the next closer is the bane/pleasure of the fantasy game. It's enough to make some people hate fantasy baseball, full-stop. But if you're a game player — and I love em all from Settlers of Cataan to Dominion to Backgammon — all you have to do is learn the rules of the games, the settings, and then try to win!
If saves are in your settings, you have to chase them. And since more than a third of the closers in baseball lose their job to injury or poor play in any given year, it makes sense to spend little up front and chase hard all year.
The problem with chasing saves is… well, it might be managers. Because, though we think we know what makes a good pitcher — lots of strikeouts, few walks, maybe some ground balls to help keep the homer rate down — most of these things correlate well with a change at the position.
In fact, check the list of metrics that *do not* predict closer changes reliably:
That pretty much shuts down half of the closing prognostication out there. And yet, it's not to say that these things can't matter to one team, it's just to say that once you take baseball as a whole, these things are not predictive. In order to make sure that one of these metrics is actually important to what you are talking about, you have to do something I used to call "thinking stupid." You have to try to scout the manager and figure out what he thinks is important. Because the manager decides who the closer is.
You can't just throw your hands up in the air, though. Research on closers has proven some positive correlations that are useful:
* Managers prefer righty closers to lefty closers.
* Even the worst teams provide 30+ save opportunities to their closers.
* Teams that score more provide more save opportunities.
* New closers have more gas and higher strikeout rates than deposed closers.
That last, a new piece this offseason by Jack Moore for FanGraphs+ (sorry, pay link), was the impetus for updating this piece for Roto-Relevant Research. Because it provides us with an easy rubric when evaluating closer battles. It's fun to look at the graph of 'new closer' fastball rates:
Let's take these findings to some current closer battles!
St. Louis
Jason Motte is down and it looks like it might be for count. If nothing improves with his torn ligament in a month — and really why should it — he'll have Tommy John surgery. The main contenders for his role are Mitchell Boggs and Trevor Rosenthal. Yup. You already know where this is going. Because, even if Boggs' velocity has jumped with his move to the pen (94ish mph), Rosenthal is the guy with the big booming triple-digit monster heater. And while Boggs' strikeout rate jumped in the pen (seven per nine ish), Rosenthal is the guy with a double-digit strikeout rate. Now, if you'd be tempted to go down the experience path here, since Boggs has done it before and Rosenthal is a rookie, but it doesn't look like that has mattered much in the past in St. Louis or elsewhere. You can't say anything really definitively about the current manager's handling of a bullpen, either. Sooo.. if Rosenthal is still out there, go get him.
Les jeux sont maybe fait when it comes to the Ax man and his wonderful mustache. John Axford can't keep the ball in the park, and Jim Henderson got the last save. And, really, that's the best thing to ask when talking about closers: "Who got the last save?" But it is worth noting that as fast as Axford can throw the ball (94 mph this year), Hendo throws it harder (95 mph the last two years). And even if Axford has double-digit strikeout rates, Henderson has bettered him this season and last. Hey, if you got two late-blooming Canadian closers with big fastballs and control issues, might as well just use the one that's going good. Some teams don't even have one!
Don't you wrinkle your nose at Houston. They can easily produce a closer with more than 25 saves this year. And since the pen is bad, the options are limited. But one thing that makes saves prospecting with bad teams harder is that since the wins are fewer and further in between, it's hard to know what the bullpen pecking order is. Because the second best thing to ask about closing is "Who's setting up now?" Well, the Astros won two games and neither of them needed a traditional save. Their closest games featured Rhiner Cruz and Wesley Wright at the back end. Since Wright is a lefty (and a LOOGY), he's out. But Rhiner Cruz is probably our saves sleeper in Houston then. He's got about four ticks more than nominal closer Jose Veras. The problem is that the former Rule 5 pick has not added pus strikeout rates to his package. Josh Fields, this year's Rule 5 pick, has more velocity than Veras, and is also striking people out. He's the real sleeper here.
Kansas City
Greg Holland is in trouble. He's got more walks than innings! It's always been iffy with him, but as we know, walk rate does not tell us much about who's going to close. If he can strike out 30+% of the batters he faces, we'll live with a walk every other inning. Or, we would. Who knows what Ned Yost will do. He's got a very capable setup man in Kelvin Herrera, but Herrera only satisfies half of the 'requirements.' He throws harder, but that hasn't meant more strikeouts… yet. This year might be different, as he's struck out seven of the 12 dudes he's seen in the box. And anyway, if you ran his 2012 numbers through an expected strikeout rate equation, you'd get 25.9% instead of the 22.4% he showed. That's not quite better than Holland's numbers, but if Holland's velocity is indeed down, and he suffers a regression in strikeout rate, Herrera could match him quickly. Herrera is absolutely a great sleeper for saves.
Hard to tell how much trouble Steve Cishek is in. He's only blown one save, but he's given up two runs in two of his three outings. And he only had one save opportunity! He hasn't been giving up home runs, and he hasn't been walking guys, but over half of the balls in play have been hits. It looks like A.J. Ramos is pitching the eighth, but he's really cheap as a rookie, and the team may want to keep it that way. He satisfies the strikeout rate rule, but he has about the same velocity as Cishek. Mike Dunn is the big velocity guy in that pen, but he's a lefty. It's probably Cishek all year, with a chance Ramos takes the reins early.
Kyuji Fujikawa is already the closer, so this one is done. And it didn't quite fit the rule. Carlos Marmol strikes more people out and has more velocity. But Carlos Marmol was just too marmolian. If someone is that utter, you have to throw the rules out and figure they're getting what has been coming to them. In Marmol's case, he's been losing that job for something like two years now.

Specifications, Availability and Pricing
The ChipChilla is 94mm tall and uses a single 6mm heatpipe that utilizes the U-shape design. It starts at the fins, through the base and back to the fins. The design has proven to be effective for CPU heatsinks like the Noctua coolers.
Cooling of the aluminum fin area is performed by a 60mm fan that rotates at 2200 RPMs. The fan is only 10mm thick so there shouldn't be many compatibility issues with your existing CPU cooler or graphics card. In addition, since the ChipChilla is rated at only 19dB we will not be able to hear it, even with the case side off.
Even though I was not able to find the ChipChilla listed on Pricegrabber in the US, I did find several online retailers that kept the unit in stock. The average cost of the unit is just under 23 US Dollars making it affordable to all enthusiasts. Availability on store shelves is a concern, but with so many places carrying the ChipChilla you will be able order one easily, though there will be a delay for shipping.

has gotten out of control. Here's my babies!
They got the crap chewed out of them by the Japanese beetles, but they're bouncing back nicely. I ran out of space in the canna bed, and have 7 pots of them scattered around the patio and yard. It's a bit much, but oh so fun. |
Follow-Up Postings:
You have a lot of blooms. They are gorgeous. I love them also especially the ones with the beautiful colorful leaves. I only have one blooming now.....Cleopatra. |
Beautiful... |

Thanks :) I started most in pots outside in April. We had a cool wet spring so they took awhile to get to size but have been growing great. I got my first cannas last year and planted them so late they only just started blooming when we got our first frost. This year, I've had bloomers since June! |

I love cannas too |
livsauntieshel, my friend read the topic of your post with addition of "bis" after "Canna".... lol |

I am INVADED with Japensese beetles! Does anyone have a non pestiside way to get rid of them??? |
Follow-Up Postings:
It might take a while but you might try Milky Spore for getting the Jap Beatle grubs under control. The link below tells about it as well as other organic things. Plant selection makes a big difference too. Some things are just much better liked by JB. JAPANESE BEETLES IN THE URBAN LANDSCAPE Good Luck! Sue |
Here is a link that might be useful: Grub & Beetle Control
Bubble Bath of Doom. We fill a little container with water and a bit of dish soap. While the Japanese Beetles are busy "dating" on a plant leaf we just give the leaf a tap and off they fall into the bubble bath of doom. We tell ourselves that if they enjoy their "dating" parties on the plants that much, they ought to really love a party in a little tupperware hot tub full of nice sudsy water. They die happy - and before they have a chance to lay eggs. The JBs tend to hold their dating parties on their favorite plants. Checking the hot spots a couple of times a day will let you significantly decrease the population in short order. Lynda |

Joey's on the street A D A D again he's on the street A D Joey grew older, older without a cause Got married, had some kids and had his brushes with the law Settled down and got a job, then said "I'm leaving" one day "I've gotta hang loose a while, take care while I'm away."

Hi there, we're back from the weekend. Today was the first time we went off the air and I was asked "was that for the show's sake, or do you honestly think that?" That's how bad the opinion went over (I said I'd start Marc-Andre Fleury tonight). We also discussed:
* Corey Crawford's post-season
* The Mike Richards injury
* The team's records at home
* Pittsburgh getting off it's game
* What the Pens need to change
* Vokoun/Fleury
* And much more

A young woman in love with a man torn between his love for her and his incorrigible womanizing; one of his mistresses and her humbly faithful loverthese are the two couples whose story is told in this masterful novel. In a world in which lives are shaped by irrevocable choices and by fortuitous events, a world in which everything occurs but once, existence seems to lose its substance, its weight. Hence, we feel "the unbearable lightness of being" not only as the consequence of our pristine actions but also in the public sphere, and the two inevitably intertwine.

Fayette teacher's song soars to #5 on iTunes chart
Cleveland Elementary School music teacher Dana Lamb is making her mark on the music industry. Her song "You Should Dream" is currently number 5 on the iTunes chart. Lamb was honored Monday night by the Fayette County Board of Education.
"Dana Lamb and her song 'You Should Dream,' recorded by the Texas Tenors and used as the title song of their latest album by the same name, was released on iTunes Dec. 10, debuting at number 5 on the album chart," said school system spokesperson Melinda Berry-Dreisbach, who described Lamb as a teacher who dared to dream.
Ahead of the album's release, the Texas Tenors performed the song "You Should Dream" during a pre-recorded concert that is airing across 225 PBS stations nationwide November through December. The concert aired here the first week of December, said Berry-Dreisbach. The song has received a lot of play on national television programs including the Today Show and Fox and Friends, Berry-Dreisbach said.
"Would I like Faith Hill or Carrie Underwood to call me up? Yes, I would. But more than that, I would rather be a rock star in my students' eyes. All the other stuff is just fluff. I live my Grammy every day in the classroom," said Lamb, who maintains that her biggest successes are in the classroom and that is where she plans to stay.
"You Should Dream" came about after one of Lamb's former students told her that she should write a song. She said she didn't think much about it at the time, but then later she heard a song in her head while taking a shower, said Berry-Dreisbach.
"I grabbed my son's purple marker and wrote it down. I went on vacation and forgot about it until I saw the words scribbled on an envelope. I pulled out my cassette recorder and recorded the most horrendous demo," said Lamb.
Berry-Dreisbach said the Texas Tenors discovered "You Should Dream" when Lamb submitted it to them after learning from her mother that the group had posted a message on their Facebook page that they were looking for new material. About seven minutes after sending it, Lamb received a phone call.
"They have a soft spot for educators because all of their parents were teachers. They thought the song was so inspirational because teachers encourage their students to dream. That is what teachers do," Lamb said.
On May 13, Lamb was on set at the Grand Canyon University Arena for the filming of the Texas Tenors PBS special "You Should Dream." It was the day after Mother's Day and Lamb traveled there alone.
"I just wanted to experience it for myself. I didn't want to miss anything," said Lamb. "As I was watching all of this come together, I was in awe of the number of people and talent needed to produce the program. I kept thinking to myself that all of this is happening because of a song. If I had not taken the time to write it down or if I hadn't found the courage to submit it, all of this might not be happening. It was a very humbling experience."
Lamb had never written a song before she wrote "You Should Dream." Since then she has been busy writing mainly for students at Cleveland Elementary. She has written all of the school's character education songs, as well as songs for kindergarten plays and various academic subjects, said Berry-Dreisbach.
Lamb's family came to the United States from Italy and Hungary in the in the 1930s-1960s. She was the first person in her family to go to college since her relatives immigrated here.
"Music levels the playing field. Kids succeed in a place where they feel they belong. Music doesn't care about your test scores or how much money your family has. It helped me connect to the other subjects and made them relevant. If not for music and public school, I would have never made it to college," said Lamb.
Berry-Dreisbach said that while passionate about music, Lamb did not pursue it in college. Instead, she went a more practical route and earned a degree in marketing. She enjoyed a successful and profitable corporate career for a while, but realized her true dream was being a music teacher.
"Being in a public school classroom, I can't think of a better place to be. My dream everyday is to go to Cleveland Elementary and teach my students," Lamb said.

Love, love, love this mode so far. Wanted to play a couple games as Singed Tank on Top, and got to do just that. Won each game with 30+ assists, zero in-fighting, zero toxic interactions, and zero stress over the timer ticking down while 3 players want mid and nobody wants to jungle. Please make this a permanent replacement for double-blind pick, and leave draft for ranked. I agree with some posts saying it would be nice to swap champs after finding your team, but honestly I think it's just fine how it is; you can always leave and jump into a new room if you don't love your team comp. Thanks for continuing to improve the player experience. I recently started playing LoL again after a 2-year hiatus, and Team Builder makes me happy to be back.
Team Builder for ranked should just be picking our roles. There's been many times where I've been matched up with three people wanting to ADC and no one wanting jungle or support.
I know this is not really a problem caused by you but it seems to me that que's are a decent speed up until the point where you need a jungler. Other than that I am loving the Team Builder.

Both teams can have the same champ, which is one of the problems I have with it. I understand that this was put in place to speed up queue times, but I personally do not enjoy this style of gameplay. I would much prefer that a champion can only be on one team. Another problem I saw while watching my friend play a match of this is that the matchmaking was very poor. My friend is a fairly experienced player. However, all of her teammates except for one seemed to be very inexperienced at the game. Again, I think this is because of queue times. I'm assuming that as more and more time passes the matchmaking system because less and less picky about who can play with whom. In the game I watched, it was over 20 minutes before a game actually took place. The rest of the time was spent matchmaking. Unfortunately, because of the problems I described, I have no use for this game mode in its current form. Thanks for listening.
Granted, I spent an eternity in match making today and never actually got into a match with this system (quit and played normal). When building a team, lets say people queue as individuals with Talon as Mid, Trist as ADC, Darius as Top, J4 as jungle and any tank/support. Will the match making take into account that Talon, Trist, Darius and J4 are all AD and not match them together? Or will they be stuck in an all AD team? I think one of the highlights of the current system is that you can communicate and say, Talon is in Mid, you can ask Darius to play an AP top and J4 to play an AP jungle to balance the damage. Or convince Talon to play an AP mid. Balancing the team is one of the most important aspects of the match making in my opinion.

I think this will be interesting and hopefully a way to improve the community.
RIOT I THINK I LOVE YOU <3 <3 this may quite possibly be the best thing you have ever done, probably not but it ranks up there. i have played 2 games and i am sad i will only have the chance to play maybe 2-3 more before it ends but i love this. aside from avoiding role arguments, this gives the players the power to play what they want. no more "i HOPE i get to play top so i can play/practice trundle" or "hope i get to play vi jungle", i click on team builder and i can, its so simple. i was kinda sad that there would be no magma chamber/showdown, not that i was great 1v1 player, but that i could practice it as much as i want, it was the perfect solo lane practice mode, albeit some odd matchups once in a while, i was sad to see it go because it was a free ticket to play top/mid lane. team builder does just that, but adds a team and a late-game. I would love to have this in ranked solo queue but i feel it could make some matchmaking problems, for example, someone who is great adc, could have a gold rank from playing adc but once put on something else be clueless, they would never have to play anything else with this system, which would make it enjoyable, but it almost isnt a ranked thing. i still hope you make it for ranked although it could cause some League ranking descrepencies. i sincerely hope you read this and it gives further concentive to keep this system and give it out as soon as possible. i have heard some good suggestions for improvements, give the captain more power is the base. all the captains do is click accept or decline, then start the game, there are 2 good suggestions i got during my 2nd game, 1) give the captain the ability to give a player invite capabiltys, waiting 5 minutes and a spot never got filled? one of your players has a friend who would love to join, its like a draft/blind team lobby. 2) still and always, captain makes final decision, but give players the option to change a champion, have a yasuo mid and your top picked nasus but he would like to make a combo with wukong, if the player who wants to change and the captain agree, let them change to that champion, it would help to make "wombo-combos" and team compositions instead of being stuck with that comp unless you kick someone out. I know this is just the test and you will probably do these things anyways, just trying to help, i reallllllly love this system. +1000 Rito

Great Scott!
Great Scott!
Doc Brown and Marty McFly were right, this is gonna be an epic day for us all.
Tom Wilson answers the questions everyone always asks him about Biff Tannen.
We all knew it was too good to be true, but we wanted to believe!
Since the release of 'Back to the Future Part II,' fans of the movie and science nerds alike have been eagerly awaiting the day that the seemingly impossible Hoverboard technology became a reality. Well that day has finally arrived!
Do you ever sit back and wonder how an iconic movie role would have played out had another actor played the role? Jim Carrey was almost Capt. Jack Sparrow and Will Smith was almost Neo. Actors missing out on major movie roles for various reasons is nothing new, and here's some of the best
A while back we reported on a very cool 'Back to the Future' LEGO set concept, where fans submit their ideas for new LEGO sets in hopes of seeing those sets become reality. And the results are in -- the 'Back to the Future' LEGO set has been approved and is coming next year!
Three years prior to the "Back To The Future part II" deadline of 2015, we now have both the shoes and now the Hover Board seen in the films. Months ago, Nike did a limited release of the Air Mags worn by Michael J Fox in the film, and now Mattel, who was the creator of the Hover Board in the film, has announced plans to release a movie-accurate prop replica of the Hover Board.
Revealed this past weekend during the New York Toy Fair, Mattel showed the Hover Board to
1985 was the year that everyone wanted a DeLorean. "Back To The Future" made the sports car one of the most popular movie vehicles of all time. Unfortunately, the car hadn't been in production for 3 years
Just think of it, if "Back To The Future part II" was even remotely accurate, we can expect self fitting and drying jackets, Nikes with power laces and hoverboards within the next 4 years. Ok... maybe one out of three won't be bad
Ever wondered what Seinfeld would be like as an end-of-the-world conspiracy thriller? A YouTube user named TRMUS1C masterfully edited old episodes of the show into this fake trailer — turns out, the ever-popular "show about nothing" was really just a shade away from being the story of a Upper West Side comedian bent on taking over the world.
Luckily, TRMUS1C isn't the only one with the idea -- check out scary Mary Poppins, a very touching Shining and Brokeback to the Future after the jump!

@geekish - The reason the genetic counselor students were in the class were because with each disorder you learn about; you learn the genetics of the disorder and therefore what the research says about someone with a disorder passing it on to their children.
I think this class was specifically a good one for them to take because there is a common chromosomal abnormality that occurs within the realm of craniofacial anomalies called cleft lip and/or palate.
By taking the class those genetic counselor students will also be able to tell the family some important fact about the disorder. For example, they would be able to tell parents that children with cleft lip and palate disorder have a low percentage of intellectual disability, and I high success rate of surgery fixing the cleft.
I would imagine that being able to tell families such information will make them knowledgeable counselors and help put a family to ease when such an instance arises.
I do not know the training details of genetic counselors but I do know that the class they were in with me was a graduate level course, so that indicates some advanced training!

Siku the polar bear is making a big splash on the internet
DENMARK - Siku the polar bear, has gained national attention after making his YouTube debut.
The adorable baby polar bear was saved shortly after birth at the Scandinavian Wildlife Park in Denmark. His mother was unable to produce milk to keep him alive, so caregivers at the zoo quickly stepped in after realizing the issue.
As the bear began to grow, caregivers documented the bear being bottle-fed, taking naps and figuring out how to use his legs.
Now, Siku can be seen 24 hours a day, playing in his habitat dwelling at the zoo. His name translates to "sea ice."
The zoo hopes that adoration for the cute cub will make people more aware of their carbon footprint and the affect it has on polar bears' natural habitats.
To watch the Siku play, visit www.polarbearccam.com.

Is MVC Obsolete? Flex, ActionScript 3.0 and the MVC Design Pattern
Another View of the MVC Design Patterns
A while back Brian Lesser, another O'Reilly author and top notch Flash Media Server developer, mentioned that he did not especially care for the Model View Controller (MVC) design pattern. While he cited some references, I never paid much attention to it at the time, especially since Chandima kept writing these brilliant pieces on Pure MVC. Further, I had promised myself that I wouldn't touch MVC until I had worked my way through all of the design patterns using ActionScript 3.0 and felt comfortable with Flex. So I really am no expert of MVC and have relied on Chandima for that particular compound design.
After weeks of pounding my head on the Prototype pattern, I was thinking of taking a break and sending a torpedo into the Singleton to let off some steam. However, before sticking my neck out (yet again) I thought I'd ask Brian why he didn't particularly care for the MVC, resulting in a very thoughtful article. (See http://broadcast.oreilly.com/2008/10/mvc-as-anti-pattern.html) Brian asked for Chandima's and my reaction. Not having spent that much time on the MVC, my reaction was based on the logic of the article which to me made perfect sense. However, this is a case of "What do I know?" The annual OOPSLA conference is coming up this next week and I will be bringing up Brian's points to big brains that attend OOPSLA–and I hope some more Flex/ActionScript/Flash developers will be there this year! So maybe after next week I'll have some comments from seriously bright programmers in addition to our seriously bright programmer, Chandima.
So take a look at http://broadcast.oreilly.com/2008/10/mvc-as-anti-pattern.html and we'd like to get any copies of your comments, thoughts, and wisdom that have you about Brian's article to post here as well.

The PhD program prepares the nurse scholar to develop and conduct scientific research that advances the theoretical foundation of nursing practice and healthcare delivery. The program is designed to prepare nurses for careers as research scientists, often in academic or governmental positions.
DNP in Nursing
The DNP program prepares nurse leaders for evidence-based practice in both direct patient care and executive roles. This requires competence in translating research into practice, evaluating evidence, applying research in decision-making, and implementing viable clinical and organizational innovations to change practice.
