According to market research firm ABI Research, Apple's A7 processor now powers some 36 million iPhones and iPads, but other chip suppliers are ramping up to fortify Apple's competitors.
By the end of 2014, ABI Research expects shipments of 64-bit mobile processors to top 182 million, of which only 20% will power Android devices.
"A number of early adopters will initially use 64-bit as a catchy marketing strategy to easily communicate differentiation using 'more-is-better' adage previously used for promoting performance in the multi-core processor race," commented Malik Saadi, practice director at ABI Research.
"This is not to say that 64-bit processing will not add any significant value to the Android sphere but the benefits of this technology will become apparent only when its implementation over Android matures," Saadi added.
A more significant ramp up for 64-bit chips powering mobile devices is a few years out. The research firm predicts that by 2018 shipments of 64-bit processors targeting smartphones and tablets will be over 1.12 billion units, or 55% of the total market.
Android devices will be the leading customers for these chips with 60% market share, followed by Apple's iOS with 30% and Microsoft Windows in the third position with less than 9% market share.

Navy Gateway Inns & Suites remodeled for summer
Many of the 500-plus Reserve Seabees who are shipping out of Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) Port Hueneme next month will have spent at least one night in the newly remodeled Navy Gateway Inns and Suites (NGIS) on base — and it's a good bet their future accommodations won't be quite so, well, accommodating.
Enjoli Shaheed took over as site manager last year after running private hotels in Ventura and oversaw the $367,000 renovation.
"I think people who travel to our NGIS will be blown away," she said. "We've made some huge progress."
Shaheed compares the current basic rooms to those of a moderately priced hotel in town — "perhaps a Hampton Inn," she said.
She compares the remodeled VIP and A suites to a timeshare, with a separate bedroom area and a kitchen with two-burner stove, refrigerator, microwave, freezer, dishwasher, toaster and utensils.
"Our main goal is to provide housing to military members traveling for military reasons," she explained. "After that, we're looking for leisure travelers."
Accommodations run from $28 a night for a room with a shared bath to $85 for a VIP suite.
At Port Hueneme, NGIS offers 356 units, including 102 two-bedroom townhomes in the Midway complex that can accommodate families and that go for $75 a night.
Thirty-six suites at Port Hueneme were renovated — 12 of them VIP suites and 24 of them A suites, which have a queen bed and pullout couch and go for $75 a night.
NGIS also has 176 units at Point Mugu and 88 on San Nicolas Island.
Shaheed is especially proud of the energy-efficient features in the remodeled rooms. Room keys must be inserted into a special slot for the lights to turn on and for the heating and cooling systems to work, guaranteeing that there won't be any energy wasted in an empty room.
The facility also offers a 24-hour coffee bar and free newspaper, and outside there's a children's playground, a gazebo and barbecues.
NGIS is also looking to offer holiday specials, as it did for the Super Bowl. It has a standing "romance package" for $99 a night that includes roses, chocolates and aromatherapy shower tablets.
NGIS is open to active-duty military members, retirees, military Reservists, Defense Department civilians with valid common access card and military dependents. Any of these people can also sponsor non-military personnel in up to 10 rooms.
To make reservations, call Port Hueneme at 805-982-6025 or Point Mugu at 805-989-8287.

Gear Question

I'm trying to lighten my setup..I have a 159 Lib TRS C2, will the L/XL be too big for this deck or should I get a M/L. Right now I have a size 11 Vans high standard but i'm going to get something lighter in probably a 10.5 as the Vans seem a little big once they were broken in. I like my bindings straps cranked down pretty tight, so what size should I be looking at in these?? Also what are some other lightweight bindings and boots on the market

I am a bit confused with your statement that I would draw less power with lower volts. The way I understand it to determine what the element will draw you divide its wattage by the voltage. So a 4500W element at 240V will draw 18.75A but the same element run at 212V will draw more like 21A. I could be wrong, but that is how I understand it. I have some 10/3 cables so I may go with them and purchase some L6-30 plugs to replace the L5-30s that are on them. The 20A 240V cables I have are very nice with molded plugs so it would be nice to use them I am just afraid it will be a but more current than I should load them with.
Ok I answered my own question in this thread over here. Looks like the element rating goes down at a lower wattage so the draw would be lower too.
well, a heating element is a resistive load. You are given a wattage rating at a specified voltage. from here you can determine the resistance of the element. The resistance is a constant, unlike the voltage, and therefore the amperage and wattage.
Bier Jagdwaffe... Bier 30 zeit.....~~=o&o>..........
This is great info. I'm planning an all electric rig, and will reread this multiple times before wiring it.
I know a lot of people run 2 hots, a neutral and a ground to their control panels, but then go 2 hots and a ground to their heater elements. Does a GFCI breaker do you any good with a short at the keggle end of things when you are wired this way? My electrician says no, which makes sense to me. Unless you are splitting your power to 240/120 somewhere along the way, is there any reason to run four wires to you control panel and use a GFCI breaker? [I moved this question to a new thread: Heating Elements and GFCI]
OK my turn. Temporary brewery relo into the garage where there is a 3 wire 240 home run to the panel. Can I branch a nearby ground? I have read about why not to borrow a neutral from a separate circuit, but grounds should never be energized except in a "situation". Would this be acceptable? It is 12ga and no more than a couple of feet away. I will need to use the green wire which is home run as the "white" I'll color code it with some fancy electrician tape. Answer in any tone you'd like - so long as you're correct. Thanks! PS - I have the portable 240 GFCI cord off ebay; so safe there.
All I can really say is thanks for this thread and all the info.
If have am supplying 240v to a 5500 watt heating element in my RIMS with 10 AWG wire can I ground the elements "electrical box" enclosure to the keggle wall with 12 AWG or does it have to be the same gauge as the supply? I'm not potting my elements like others, but instead have modified a watertight aluminum electrical box to house the business end of the element.
Needs to be of the same gauge.

Hi Everyone,
I am hoping for some suggestions for a privacy screen that would also produce fruit. I am in Tucson, and it would get full sun and be shaded from later afternoon. I am also needing to plant it in containers. I just got 2 pineapple guavas and was considering more. Anyone here have any luck getting fruit from them? I reas some old posts and it seems they can be a little tricky. Thank you ,
Follow-Up Postings:
The "in containers" part is whats going to make this hard. It would help if the containers could be partly planted in the ground essentially making the pots into a raised bed. Even then it would have to be something that spreads in order to get full coverage. If you could use a raised bed I would say go with Prunus Americana. This Fall I plan on building a raised bed where the first 2X12 is buried with only 1" above ground with another 2X12 on top. That way the roots would have to travel roughly 23" down and 12" back up before they can sucker outside the raised bed. I plan on mowing around the beds to control any suckering that does occur. |

Hi Everyone, I appriciate the suggestions, but trees just wont work. I'm sorry I wasn't more specific. I'm in a trailor park, so it can't get real big, and can't go in the ground. Where it needs to go, has a water line that runs to the street. I really want a shrub of some sort, I can trim to the size I want, and get fruit. Maybe I will get more guavas. |

Surinam cherry is a bush with tropical cherries. |

I second a vote for pomegranate. You can trim it to be very shrubby, and it is a good producer in the warm winter areas of AZ. Let us know what you select and how it works out. Good luck! Grant |

Hi Everyone! I really appreciate the additional help. I did go ahead and get a small pomegranite last night from Lowes. and a new fig tree. Were going to let the Fig grow as a bush, towards the back of the property. It's the front half im most concerned about and need evergreen. :) I did some searching on the "surinam cherry", and im not sure about that one. The plant would certianly work and sounds neat , but i've read some iffy stuff about the flavor of it being bad. phxplantaddict~~ Are you growing this? or is anyone here that can give some input on the flavor of it. Thanks again for all your help. |
- Posted by phxplantaddict 9 (My Page) on Mon, Sep 20, 10 at 11:10
I am growing the cherry, I like the taste. |
- Posted by jojosplants Az Z9 (My Page) on Mon, Sep 20, 10 at 12:53
Thank you! I will see if I can find it. Did you get yours local, or mail order? JoJo |
Grapes or blackberries? |
- Posted by phxplantaddict 9 (My Page) on Mon, Sep 20, 10 at 23:48
I brought back a few from San Diego 3 years ago. Nice plants, fast growers. |
I would have suggested a fig tree as well. They are beautiful trees. Just be sure to protect the root zone from our hot sun and it should do real well. Dave |

Submitting Well Child Visit ("Bright Futures") Forms to MaineCare
March 30, 2012
Maine's Public Health Nurses continue to review the well-child visit forms to identify health concerns or missed well-child visits and provide education and support to the family. A new mechanism for Public Health Nurse follow-up is in development. In the meantime, providers may continue to submit the forms to facilitate follow-up, but it is not a requirement. Current policy does not tie provider incentives (or disincentives) to the submission of the forms.

On Monday Vikings head coach Brad Childress told his team they were releasing Randy Moss saying, "This just doesn't fit with how we treat people, how we talk to people and how we act," a source told Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports. We've all heard stories involving Moss but the latest one to which Childress is apparently referring came last Friday when the team had food catered into the locker room.
On a usual Friday, a local restaurant supplied the food and set it up in the locker room serving it to the players. Moss, according to Silver, was very loud in expressing his displeasure for the food saying, "What the [expletive]? Who ordered this crap? I wouldn't feed this to my dog!"
That rubbed some players the wrong way, according to one player who talked to Silver.
"This wasn't a chain – it was a mom-and-pop restaurant, and you could tell it was their best stuff. They had a special carving station set up, and there were players and other support staff lining up to eat it. And [Moss] is at his locker saying, 'You know, I used to have to eat that crap – but now I've got money.' You just felt so sad for them. I had never seen anyone treated like that."
The player said Moss "deserved to be cut" after witnessing that.
I would be sympathetic to the Vikings here if Moss didn't come to Minnesota with a reputation for being a nuisance like this. The Vikings knew -- or should have known -- what they were getting in Moss. Now that it hasn't worked out they're going to blame his release on something they should (or did) have known about him from the start.

JAIPUR: BJP legislator Radhey Shyam was among six persons injured in stone-pelting by a mob and subsequent lathicharge in Sriganganagar on Saturday. The rivalry between people from two localities had turned violent over an old issue, said the police. One of the groups, supported by the MLA, wanted the other group to shift from the place for their alleged involvement in criminal activities.
BJP MLA Radhey Shyam told TOI that he had been demanding shifting of about 40 families living in Chhajgariya Mohalla for a long time. "These people are involved in criminal activities including narcotics smuggling. Those living in neighbouring places including Kinchi Chowk were being harassed. So they were demanding that these families be shifted from there. I have raised the issue in the assembly several times," said the legislator.
SP, Sriganganagar, Santosh Chalke said that some people from Kinchi Chowk had intercepted two youths from Chhajgariya Mohalla while they were on their way home on Saturday.
"One of the youths escaped and rushed to Chhajgariya Mohalla where he told his people that those from Kinchi Chowk had almost killed his friend. This fake information led to the incident," said Chalke.
MLA Radhey Shyam said that people from Chhajgariya Mohalla gathered in front of the houses in Kinchi Chowk. "People from both the groups soon gathered there. I also rushed there after being informed by local people. I also called all senior police officers following which police from all nearby police stations and a Rajasthan Armed Constabulary unit was rushed there," said the MLA.
Police said that soon people from both the groups started hurling stones. "Several vehicles were damaged. We had to resort to lathicharge," said the SP.
MLA Radhey Shyam said that a stone hit him beneath his left eye leading to severe bleeding. "Some policemen hit me with their sticks during lathicharge despite the fact that I was trying to restore law and order there," said the legislator.
SP Chalke said that about 30 people have been arrested. "Those who were included include two policemen also," said the officer.

After its Super Bowl Twitter victory, Oreo has focused its attention on a Cookie vs. Creme debate.
It's been a big week for Oreo. Not only did an on-the-fly power outage tweet help the brand gain nearly 8,000 Twitter followers, its first Super Bowl spot marked the launch of its Cookie vs. Creme campaign that has so far propelled it to more than 50,000 followers on Instagram.
Oreo's Cookie vs. Creme campaign is a two-month program focused on what it says is a longstanding disagreement among fans -- which part of an Oreo is best?
The campaign launched by asking fans to submit a photo they love with the hashtag #cookiethis or #cremethis on Instagram. Over the course of a three-day period, Oreo selected a number of submissions and worked with a team of artists in Portland, Oregon to create sculptures based on the images using either cookie or creme. The sculpture creations are then photographed and uploaded to Instagram.
As of Tuesday, nearly 32,000 fan submissions had resulted in 122 sculptures.
Oreo says the team makes its selections based on "originality, creativity, and images that could be fun, beautiful and interesting to sculpt."
According to Susan Burris, senior associate brand manager at Oreo parent Mondelez International, Oreo has gained "basically all" of its Instagram followers as a result of the campaign. After "seeding it" on Facebook, Oreo had about 2,200 Instagram followers prior to the game. Fifteen seconds after the Super Bowl ad aired, Burris says Oreo had 22,000 followers. As of Tuesday, that figure was up to about 53,000 followers.
"We're hoping to facilitate the conversation -- which part of the Oreo do they prefer, which side do they prefer," Burris says.
Throughout the campaign, Oreo will continue to engage consumers through a number of additional activations. However, Burris says she can't talk about the "fun surprises" coming up after the sculpting component ends.
"It's very visual, it's something that's unique and it's something Oreo hasn't done before," Burris says of Instagram. "We're not just launching an Instagram page, we're launching an engagement experience, saying, 'Hey -- we have this page. This is something we're engaging on and we have pictures posted now -- we have things we have cookied or cremed.'"
While Milk's Favorite Cookie may have a broad appeal, Oreo is looking to increase conversations with Millennials in this campaign, she adds.
In order to promote the campaign, Oreo has reskinned Oreo.com, launched a mobile site and on-package messaging and made digital media buys.
The 30-second TV spot that launched during the Super Bowl depicts the Cookie vs. Creme argument with two men in a library. In addition to "Whisper Fight," a second spot is slated to air starting March 11 on major U.S. cable networks. Both spots were created by Portland-based ad agency Wieden + Kennedy.
Oreo has 31.5 million likes on Facebook and 73,000 followers on Twitter.

Dermatologists Best for Melanoma Diagnosis
Getting melanoma diagnosed by a dermatologist rather than a non-specialist could boost a patient's odds for long-term survival, a new study finds.
Researchers at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta studied 1,467 patients with melanoma diagnosed by a dermatologist and 553 melanoma patients diagnosed by a non-dermatologist.
On average, tumors diagnosed by dermatologists were thinner than those diagnosed by non-dermatologists -- 0.86 millimeters vs. 1 millimeter thick. When a melanoma tumor is still relatively thin (less than 1 millimeter), patients have a 90 percent cure rate.
Patients diagnosed by a dermatologist also had better survival rates.
"The two-year and five-year survival rates were 86.5 percent and 73.9 percent for the dermatologist group compared with 78.8 percent and 68.7 percent for the non-dermatologist group," the study authors wrote.
"These results suggest that increasing access to dermatologists, particularly for older patients who have higher rates of melanoma, may represent one approach to improving melanoma-related health outcomes from a health policy perspective," they concluded.
The study appears in the April issue of the journal Archives of Dermatology.
Melanoma is the most serious type of skin cancer, and can be fatal. Each year in the United States, more than 53,600 people learn they have the disease. In some parts of the world, especially Western countries, melanoma is becoming more common every year. In the United States, for example, the percentage of people who develop melanoma has more than doubled in the past 30 years, according to the National Cancer Institute.
Baby Boomers Not as Healthy as Their Parents
Despite more health benefit options available to them than at any time in history, America's Baby Boomers may not be even so healthy as their parents.
The Washington Post reports that as the first wave of Baby Boomers -- a generation of Americans born between 1948 and 1964 -- heads toward retirement, surveys indicate they describe their own health as less than ideal.
As a matter of fact, the Post reports, a major study indicates that Boomers say they have more problems with cholesterol, diabetes, blood pressure and physical exertion than the previous generation born between 1936 and 1941.
"We're seeing some very powerful evidence all pointing to parallel findings," the newspaper quotes Mark Hayward, a sociologist at the University of Texas at Austin, as saying. "The trend seems to be that people are not as healthy as they approach retirement as they were in older generations. It's very disturbing."
One of the primary reasons for the decline in good health, researchers speculate, is that previous generations were much more physically active in their daily routines, the Post reports. The number of Baby Boomers who said they were overweight might be a key to the decline in good health, the newspaper said.

Tai Chi Boosts Immune System Against Shingles
Tai chi, an exercise that features slow martial arts-like movements and meditation, significantly improves the ability of older adults' immune systems to fight the virus -- varicella zoster -- that causes shingles, a new study says.
Shingles is a painful, blistery rash. About one-third of adults over age 60 develop shingles.
The 25-week study, conducted at the University of California, Los Angeles, involved 112 people, ages 59 to 86. The researchers found that Tai chi, by itself, increased immunity against varicella zoster to a level that was comparable to having received the standard vaccine against the virus.
When a person did Tai chi and received the vaccine, the immunity against the virus reached a level normally seen in middle age, said the study, which was published in the April issue of the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society.
The study results confirm that a behavioral intervention such as Tai chi can trigger a positive, virus-specific immune response, said lead author Michael Irwin, professor of psychiatry at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior at UCLA.
"These are exciting findings, because the positive results of this study also have implications for other infectious diseases, like influenza and pneumonia. Since older adults often show blunted protective responses to vaccines, this study suggests that T'ai chi is an approach that might complement and augment the efficacy of other vaccines, such as influenza," Irwin, who is also director of the UCLA Cousins Center for Psychoneuroimmunology, said in a prepared statement.

Smoking May Increase Body Wrinkles
Smoking may increase wrinkles on parts of the body other than the face -- even on areas usually covered with clothes.
Cigarette smoking has long been linked to increased facial wrinkles. A new study shows that that may also be true of the rest of the body.
Yolanda Helfrich, MD, and colleagues studied 82 people at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor's dermatology clinic.
Participants were 22-91 years old (average age: 56). Most were white; 41 had a history of smoking.
Helfrich's team interviewed participants about smoking, sun exposure, sunscreen use, tanning, and other lifestyle factors.
A medical photographer took pictures of each participant's upper inner arm.
The photos were reviewed by three judges (two dermatology residents and one medical student) who didn't know which participants were smokers.
The judges used a nine-point scale developed by Helfrich's team. A rating of 0 indicated no fine wrinkling; severe fine wrinkling yielded the maximum score of 8.
Smoking and Wrinkles
Nearly two-thirds of the participants had low wrinkle scores ranging from 0-2 points. Smokers generally had the highest scores, indicating deeper wrinkles.
The wrinkle risk was particularly strong for people who had smoked heavily for many years.
"We examined nonfacial skin that was protected from the sun, and found that the total number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day and the total years a person has smoked were linked with the amount of skin damage a person experienced," Helfrich says in a University of Michigan news release.
The study doesn't prove that smoking caused or worsened wrinkles. But the results held when the researchers took other factors, including participants' age, into account.
The study appears in the Archives of Dermatology.

Duct Tape Won't Treat Warts
Duct tape has many uses, but the claim that it's a cheap, effective treatment for warts is challenged by a new U.S. study in the March issue of the journal Archives of Dermatology.
A small study in 2002 suggested that duct tape helped treat warts on children and young adults. The theory is that the tape irritates the skin and prompts the immune system to attack the virus that causes warts, the Associated Press reported.
But this new study found that warts disappeared in 21 percent of 39 patients who used duct tape for seven days, compared to 22 percent of 41 patients who used moleskin, a cotton-type bandage used to protect the skin.
This new study used transparent duct tape, while the 2002 study used the better-known gray duct tape. Grey duct tape contains rubber while transparent duct tape does not, the AP reported.
"Whether or not the standard type of duct type is effective is up in the air," said study co-author Dr. Rachel Wenner of the University of Minnesota. "Theoretically, the rubber adhesive could somehow stimulate the immune system or irritate the skin in a different manner."

ASAPS Reports Cosmetic Procedures on the Rise
Nearly 11.5 million cosmetic surgical and nonsurgical procedures were performed in the United States in 2006, according to statistics released today by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). Compared to 2005, cosmetic surgical and nonsurgical increased 1%. The Aesthetic Society, which has been collecting multispecialty procedural statistics since 1997, says the overall number of cosmetic procedures has increased 446% since the collection of the statistics first began. The most frequently performed procedure was injectable fillers and the most popular surgical procedure was liposuction.
The top nonsurgical cosmetic procedures include injectable fillers, hyaluronic acid, laser hair removal, microdermabrasion and laser skin resurfacing.
Having a Sense of Humor May Mean a Longer Life
Adults who can laugh at life's ups and downs may live longer than those who have trouble cracking a smile, concludes a Norwegian study of about 54,000 people tracked for seven years.
At the start of the study, participants filled out questionnaires on how easily they found humor in everyday life and how important they felt it was to have a humorous perspective, USA Today reported.
People who scored in the highest 25% of humor appreciation were 35% more likely to be alive at the end of seven years than those in the bottom quarter, the study found.
The survival advantage of having a humorous outlook was especially noticeable in a subgroup of 2,015 cancer patients. Those with a healthy sense of humor were about 70%less likely to die than those with a weak sense of humor, USA Today reported.
The study was presented at a meeting of the American Psychosomatic Society.

Tribune Direct : The Magic of Technology
May 2012 By Erik Cagle, Senior EditorOf all the adjectives that could be used to describe Tribune Direct, "structured" is certainly accurate. It has in place a number of programs designed to make life easier for the client, as well as tools to monitor campaign effectiveness and increase response rates. As Tazioli alluded to, Tribune Direct's value proposition is a three-pronged attack: direct mail strategy, program management and creative development. Here's a sample of its wares:
• Gift card marketing program. A card-and-carrier marketing piece that bolsters response rates and ROI. The cards are wallet-friendly, personalized and produce trackable information.
• Check Tracker. The proprietary response system enables marketers to capture, process, warehouse and analyze direct mail responses via the Value Check. It is a coupon consumers use to redeem offers in-store, but it goes through the federal banking system to capture responders' information.
• On the analytics side, Tribune provides the Execulytics tool that enables clients to locate and target their most responsive prospects. It provides geographic, psychographic and lifestyle traits of consumers.
Be it small or large campaigns—Tribune Direct gets its share of both—full-color, variable data pieces have proven to be a boon for clients and have ratcheted response rates to another level.
"The concept is using the variable color output that we have and taking that to another level," Tazioli notes. "It's about being able to produce matched, multiple pieces in a single mail package that are all tied to the same individual household, all variable imaged in full-color, whether it be a pocket mailer, gift card concept, letter envelope or a booklet.
"We're really trying to stretch the investments that we've made in developing unique applications that are going to create that wow factor with the consumer, and that will get opened, looked at and responded to. At the end of the day, it's all about driving results for the advertiser."
In an effort to remain marketing channel agnostic, Tribune Direct integrates direct mail with electronic solutions including e-mail, PURLs, micro sites and quick response 2-D codes. But, make no mistake about it, the electronic solutions act in a support capacity for traditional print vehicles.
"We're focused on the integration of different electronic channels as opposed to a standalone channel," notes Tim Klunder, vice president of sales and client relations. "Our aim is to discover how they all work together and find out what the client is trying to accomplish. Then, we develop that integrated, cross-channel experience based on what the customer is trying to achieve."
Prosperous Addition
Tribune Direct recently installed a Kodak Prosper 5000XL inkjet web press to complement a pair of existing NexPress printers in its litho-less pressroom (which also includes a Xerox DocuColor 5000). The Prosper configuration includes an in-line InterFlex UV coater to make substrates "bulletproof" from a physical standpoint in the USPS mailstream, according to Tim Street, director of operations for Tribune Direct. What made the Prosper press stand out from other machines that Tribune Direct auditioned was its ability to print on coated stocks, particularly postcards, along with offset-like output of up to 175 lpi. Fully customized direct mail at a lower price point, clearly, spoke to the needs of the printer.
"Customers were saying they wanted to present full, variable color in the products they presented to their customers," Street notes. "They want the Kraft Macaroni & Cheese box to look like the real thing. So, we knew we needed to come up with a solution to deliver millions of pieces in a short period of time."
The InterFlex UV coater, aside from protecting the pieces from scuffing and rubbing, can make a satin, gloss or matte stock really pop, according to Street. Also adding heft to the line—near-line, specifically—is an assortment of Standard Horizon finishing equipment, including an AFC-744AKT folder and a Standard Hunkeler CS7 rotary cross cutter. Also new to the mix is a Tecnau Dynamic perforator.
"We have the ability to take the 25.5˝-wide web and do a variety of different finishing, from variable perforating—like a T-perf—across the whole wide web, and then be able to go through different cutting and folding systems," Street notes.
The Prosper press-led capex initiative is tailor made for the evolving needs of Tribune's clients. Klunder points out that the trend is toward more relevant and targeted direct mail campaigns—smaller runs done more frequently. As Tazioli observes, the new system allows for greater volume with a significantly lower per-piece cost than traditional cutsheet digital color. Future investments will revolve around bolstering the finishing aspect to get more traction with unique mail formats.
The days of the vanilla advertisement for the masses appear gone, and now the objective is to devise campaigns of one, so to speak, based on geography, demographics, past purchase behavior and other factors that can be mined from customer data, Tazioli believes. And, while the future will include more and more digital integration, through PURLs, 2-D codes and e-mail, Tazioli sees a long and healthy future ahead for direct mail.
"Direct mail is not going away; it's a healthy industry and will continue to be relevant for many years despite the bad press about the U.S. Postal Service," he says. "It's up to us to find ways to integrate the digital and print worlds, and get them to work harmoniously." PI

Standard operating procedure in this town is for people to whine about service. Well, having dined here for over 20 years and comparing service here to other cities, it's become clear that it's just not as good. But mostly it's passable and often better than that.
What is it people are expecting and not getting? True, servers here are often not as attentive as what I've seen in New York, San Fran, Chicago, Minneapolis... but there's a professional waiter class in those cities that doesn't exist here. In Madison, students work at restaurants and the service industry's best practices are usually not their highest priorities.
As long as they're friendly, prompt, don't forget parts of the order, and don't leave dirty stuff on the table, I'm fine. A recent trip to a beloved pizza joint included a forgotten item, dirty dishes sitting around and a mistake on the bill. THAT's bad service. But I haven't had anything like that in so long that it was pretty glaring. Usually, I'm very happy with the service I get at the parade of mid-priced casual eateries I frequent.
All too often, marginal service is a product of a kitchen that doesn't communicate ("I just found out we're out of that..."), a manager who doesn't do a good job of training and communicating or both. If it's clear that the waiter is trying hard and continues to be friendly, I'm likely to cut him some slack.
What are you usually complaining about when you gripe about the service?

Haven't been on the forum for a while, but it is nice to be back and see all the gorgeous rooms people have built in the interim, and glad to know that Mongo and Bill still listen in!
I am not a fan of shower curtains clinging to me when I shower, so I am thinking up ways to avoid that with my free standing tub. One possible solution is to make the room a wet room and have a curtain across on the outide of the tub, with drain in the floor to catch all the remaining water. What do you think? TIA |
Follow-Up Postings:
Honestly? Messy... Just my opinion, but I don't think freestanding tubs are meant for comfortable showering... |
I hear that, Sweeby, and appreciate you weighing in. I am in a bit of a quandry, with this being a guest/main floor bath and no tub in the master. I want both a soaking tub (you know, deeper than 12 inches) and a reasonable shower for guests. So not much showering, but the room is too small for both. Free standing to help make the room look less cramped.. Open to ideas at this point, and, as always, respect your opinion. |
- Posted by writersblock (My Page) on Wed, May 9, 12 at 13:08
You don't say how large your bathroom is, but I've always thought this was a very clever way to accomplish what you want in a tiny condo bath (from poster MiamiBeach over at ikeafans. If you search the blogs you can find details.) |
- Posted by kacihoward (My Page) on Wed, May 9, 12 at 18:13
Glad to see this post. My architect has suggested this arrangement, and I am unsure about it. We are creating an age in place bathroom, one that has a wheelchair accessible shower with grab bars and a walk in tub. So that as we age, these fixtures will be there before we need them. Apparently when you open the doors of walk in tubs they drip water on the floor, so being in a "wet room" solves the water issues. While I can understand the practicality of this arrangement, I was concerned it would look strange. Nice to hear your thoughts on the arrangement. |
I have talked to a few people who purchased a walk in tub who hate them. They complained about having to sit while the tub was filling up and having to sit while th tub was drained. I heard they were freezing. |
- Posted by kacihoward (My Page) on Wed, May 9, 12 at 19:20
I am aware of the drawbacks of a walk of tub. Unfortunately limited mobility makes it increasingly necessary. We are buying a model that has one of the fastest, fill and drain rates and we are installing a Turbo Body Dryer (like a wall mounted hair dryer for the body) I have learned that walk in tubs are not something you want to cut costs on, the cheaper models have a lot of issues. Our tub is costing a ridiculous $10,000+. I anyone had told me I would spend 10,000 dollars on tub I would have thought they were crazy. |
I think it would be cool. I rented a place with a clawfoot tub shower and I know what you mean about the curtain sticking. I'd do it in a heartbeat - and the curtain could become a wonderful decorative element placed that way - it frames the tub at that point. The only annoying part is getting in and out of the tub for a shower - but if you got a low-slung freestanding (not a raised clawfoot) it might fare you better. A blueprint might be helpful? |
Ooohhh, it's exciting to see all the action here. I had a tile guy come out today and we discussed the logistics of a wet room, including the effect it will have on the tub plumbing (out of the wall instead of up through the floor to minimize leaks). But here are some details: The room is long and narrow, 7 feet wide by almost eleven feet long. Single door at the narrow end, no windows, and it must also house the stackable washer and dryer. I will try to get a plan posted if there is any interest, but it is a pretty basic rectangle. Because the room is small I like the visual of a free standing tub, with placement planned across the far end of the room. Sink and toilet will be on opposite walls in the next section, and the washer and dryer snug in the corner next to the door. Cloudbase, the real reason for the tub is that there is no tub in the master or anywhere on the main floor, and I want a tub I can soak in. Its use as a shower will be limited to house guests. So they will still have a bit of a struggle getting in and out...or I can share my shower, if the guests are old enough or decrepit enough :) Writersblock, I have seen a similar arrangement to that and agree, it is a nice way to combine the two. Unfortunately there just isn't room in this room. If I have to, I can bite the bullet and put a more shower-friendly arrangement across that end of the bathroom. But I have no reason (no real time pressure, and other than the counter top that impales every person who walks in the room there are no immediate structural issues) to not think about all the possible ways to solve the problems of the tiny bathroom. So while the wet room may ultimately not be the way we go I thought I would toss it out there to see what people had done/not done. |
Current Update: As Sweeby stated so eloquently, just too messy... I was leaning away from the wet room since it would limit my plumbing choices among other things. Then I brought my cousin (who built her own house, is an engineer, and chews each bite of food 18 times. She is careful, thoughtful, and has a good eye for aesthetics) over to look at the various issues surrounding the new design. Not sure why this hadn't occurred to me, but there will be "tiff" in the water that is on the floor and since this is the guest bath it wouldn't just be my tiff on the floor. So, as usual, Sweeby had it right from the beginning: Too Messy. So now I am back to looking for a deep enough, wide enough tub...Thank you all. |
The plumbing for what you propose is fairly straight forward, I don't see any worry over plumbing coming up through the floor in a wet room. It's done often. While there are other materials available, using Ditra on the floor and then using something along the lines of a Kerdi pipe collar (Kerdi-M) or equivalent where the plumbing stub outs exit the floor makes everything watertight. |
I have a tub, a shower, and a floor drain that is invisible. The drain is hidden but it is there. The floor is sloped but doesn't look sloped. This was built before channel / linear drains became a new thing that apparently one can do.... I remember all the naysayers over at the world's friendliest tile forum who "advised" me not to build it all this way... In the end i got what i wanted, and everyone was happy. post a floor plan. |
You guys are KILLIN me! And yet, I am sort of happy about that... Mongo, I have had a couple of leaks into my basement for other reasons and am not wanting to increase the risk down the road. Would plumbing in the floor be good for the long haul? Davidro, do you have pictures somewhere? I like the idea of the floor drain and a channel might be good for a couple of reasons. Still need to confine the mess, maybe with a short dam... |
Would plumbing in the floor be good for the long haul? Well, plumbing is plumbing. It's often brought up through non-wetroom floors "out in the open" for freestanding tubs. Bringing it up through a membraned wetroom floor is really no challenge whatsoever with regards to proper waterproofing, especially with the materials available today. As far as it being good for the long haul, in my opinion that's more of a design consideration in terms of the room design changing or the tub fixture itself begin swapped for something else, and then the floor plumbing being in the "wrong place", versus a leak consideration. But that'd be a consideration for any plumbing installation; wall plumbing, floor plumbing, ceiling plumbing, etc. kacihoward, you wrote about the open door of a walk-in tub dripping water on the floor. If you're not aware, you can get a tub with an in-swing door too. There are advantages to both, but I thought I'd mention it anyway. |

Mongoct--Thanks for the info. I was aware there are inward opening doors on walk in tubs; however, its my understanding that they cannot be opened when full. Since my husband has already had one stroke it is essential to be able to open the door in a medical emergency. Which is why we are considering an institutional model. while more expensive, they can be opened in a medical emergency, and they fill and drain faster. Having the tub in the shower would reduce the water damage done if we did have to open the door and dump 30 gallons of water on the floor. |
Thanks, Mongo. Still mulling. |

Throughout history, our great nation, our notable state and our extraordinary Christian faith have had a special breed of people who have championed the cause. They desire neither recognition nor compensation for their service. Their selfless and sacrificial acts have resulted in freedom from tyranny, the acquisition of territories and the perpetuity of Judean Christian beliefs. They are the reason churches like ours continue to shine our light locally and globally. I am speaking of course of Volunteers. In Isaiah 6 verse 8 God is conversing with Isaiah the Prophet and He poses this question, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Without delay, Isaiah volunteers with the words, "Here am I, send me." If it were not for people with the spirit of Isaiah our church would struggle horribly. In any given week you might find them anywhere: working on the church grounds, at the door greeting, in the nursery caring for the little ones, teaching a class, setting up the sound system, practicing with the Praise Team, praying that God will bless the services and heal the sick today, bringing in the breakfast, turning on a coffee pot, signing up kids for sports ministry, preparing for AWANA, welcoming a guest, organizing the VBS children to sing, taking attendance in a class or preparing a meal for someone who needs it. . . They are everywhere. A note to all of our volunteers: Our adversary, the devil, may try to discourage you by telling you no one appreciates what you do or no one has noticed your sacrifice. Don't believe that lie. Without you we could not accomplish the work of the ministry. Thank you and May God richly bless you.
Here Am I Lord,
Pastor Dave

Our carpet is fairly new in our living room and it's the short shag...can I put a rug, like 5 foot by 8 foot in our living room for decoration purpose only? Like under our coffee table? Seems like I only see them on hardwood floors...can I see pictures of your rugs on carpet flooring if you have any ??

Yes! I think it's a nice accent. While I have all hardwoods in my current home, I had carpeting in my previous home and here's a shot of the den, where I put a 4x6 rug under the coffee table (on top of the carpeted area). It worked nicely. |
Yep, they're all over my house. I have 2 large & one small (4x6) in the FR, a 9x12 in the LR, and two 6 x 9's in the MBR.......all on carpet. I just view the carpet as a background and I make sure the colors in the rug don't clash with the carpet. Be sure to use the correct padding for rugs on carpet. I'll have to snap some pics......... |
Love the pics! Don't forget those of us who live in apartments with the boring grey or beige wall to wall carpeting. Ugh! It's a great way to add texture and dimension to a room. I wouldn't limit it to the bedroom, but my daughter's each have soft shag rugs in their rooms. Their friends are always sitting on the floor. |

What beautiful rugs, ideamom! I'm really impressed at the design and execution! |

Great question, I was wondering the same thing. joanne |
Do you have to put pads under an area rug? Figured the wall to wall was good enough padding. I have 1/2" pad under my wall to wall. To answer OP's question, I use area rugs in my house to "anchor" the furniture, add some pattern/texture (in my living room, I'll post pics once I get furniture back in, had ceiling painted today). I also use one in my family room to anchor and define the "conversation area" since our breakfast nook is tucked into a corner of that room (also have round area rug under round breakfast table, it's too small but it keeps stains off the WTW carpet!). |
If furniture is sitting on the rug the padding helps prevent the rug from being compressed into the soft carpet padding underneath. Even if that weren't the case, I like the look that pads give the rugs. They just seem to have more substance, for lack of a better description! :) Most of my pads are a thick felt (can't find them anymore) but all my newer rugs are on Dura Grip pads. They prevent the rug from 'walking' across the carpet. |
Not trying to totally highjack this thread, but I do have a related question. My rugs are on hardwoods and I don't have pads underneath. I think I need pads. Where's the best place to buy them, and what's the preferred type? |
Aunt jen - oriental rug place that just cleaned my rug said for handknotted wool rug, don't need pad (at least I didn't under my dining room table, you might if slipping is a concern). They did tell me the carpet would last longer if I used a pad, tried to sell me (for 8x10 rug) a pad made of compressed felt, saying it wouldn't scratch. But it was $120. Stay away from latex that might stick to your hardwoods. Maybe the same type of pad as used under WTW (chopped something?) would work? |
Hmmm, so maybe I don't need one after all? My rugs are wool (although I'm not sure they're handknotted), and slippage is not a concern as they're underneath pretty heavy pieces of furniture. I'm not even sure why I thought I probably needed pads -- must've read it on one of the many rug seller's sites that I've perused over the past few months. I certainly don't want to spend $100+. Heck, one of my (Craig's List) rugs only cost $120, and I'd hate to spend that for a pad. Thanks for the input! |
If you can see the pattern on the underside of the rug (just little loops like needlepoint) then it's handknotted. If there is some kind of canvas or latex backing, then it's machine-made and you should use a pad. |
Oh, and if it has fringe, it's probably hand made. |
Thanks! Based upon your description, I do believe that mine are hand-knotted. |

Can an area rug cover most of your living room rug? I have one under my coffee table, but would like a bigger one will the coffee table make it look off balanced? |

A side question here, actually two. We live in an apartment and I've always purchased throw rugs for our place. These throw rugs have a rubber backing but am constantly having to bend over and straighten them out (excessive bending with a bad back). Does anyone have any suggestions as to what type of rugs to purchase to avoid this? Also, am looking for a simple hall runner rug (not really looking for style, just trying to keep the carpet in pristine shape). Need a max dimension if 3' by 20'. Having a hard time finding locally on Orange County/California. Any thoughts from you all? Thanks much! |

Hi all,
I was curious to know if seeds normally gathered from nature are most likely to produce identical plants or hybrids. Sorry for my ignorance on the subject but I 'm growing fragrant plants and one of my seed sources hinted on the fact that a specific plant hybridizes easily and now I find myself looking with new eyes at all of my seedlings!! thanks, sofia |

That depends so much on what seeds you are talking about, and where you got the seeds. I wouldn't generalize about this. Walter |
Sofia, With wild plants, hybridization means crossing of species, which is a little different from hybridization of garden plants. With garden plant hybrids, we normally are talking about crossing varieties or cultivars, although crossing of species is sometimes performed in garden plant breeding. Certain species of wild plants are known to produce natural hybrids. But, in most cases, wild plants do not form hybrids for various reasons such as geographic isolation of possible hybridizing partners or bloom times which don't correspond. Most often, seed collected from wild plants will produce plants which are of the same species as the plant from which the seed was collected, and the characteristics of the offspring will fall within the range of genetic variation of the population from which it was collected. Jim |
thanks for the info, my seedlings are gardenias and probably I was over reacting because one has narrower leaves than the rest and another lighter colored leaves but it is obviously due to difference in watering or sun exposure since they are still really small ..leaves are only about 1.5 cm long :-) sofia |
It's quite possible your differences are environmental, not genetic, but don't write off the possiblity that these are genetic differences. While hybrdization work with wild species usually focuses on crosses between species or between wild material and cultivated lines, there's no reason variation can't occur in wild plants. I'm not familiar with gardenia's flower structure, but unless it's a closed flower which can only be self-fertilized (in which case the offspring will certainly be quite uniform), then a certain level of variation in seedlings can be expected. Differences will usually be subtle, but they're there. Lots of cultivars of various things have been selected from the wild, and many were not interspecific crosses, just good individuals of a particular species. |

FS Factory Front Bumper Cover with Fog Lights.
2 Attachment(s)
I just put on an ARB bumper and want to get rid of the factory plastic bumper cover with fogs. $100 for local pick up - Sacramento, CA. If you only want the factory lights (I'm not sure if they are driving or fog lights) I can mail you them for an additional $15.
If this isn't a good deal please let me know. I'm not trying to rip anyone off, just recoup a little money for more truck mods. Dave Attachment 60025 Attachment 60026 |
How much for one foglight??? I desperately need one! Unless you HAVE to sell both.

In the park, "environmental advocacy" can be considered an industry due to the wide range of preservation/protection groups and organizations based in the park.
The Adirondack Nature Conservancy in Keene Valley and The Adirondack Council in Elizabethtown are both considered major employers in their respective communities.
The Saranac Lake based, Adirondack Wildlife Conservation Society employs six full-time and 10 part-time staffers.
The Adirondack Mountain Cub has a multi-million dollar economic impact in the park, with a substantial payroll in Lake George where it is headquartered and at Adirondac Loj on Heart Lake near Lake Placid.
The national trend of a growing detachment of youth from the outdoors is further exasperated in the Adirondacks due to an out-migration of area youth that was detailed in the recently released, Adirondack Park Regional Assessment Report.
The report, which examined the "state of community," profiling the 103 municipalities that comprise the Adirondack Park. The report detailed a significant decline in the number of young people living in the park.
The park will be a special place for our children only of they have the opportunity to enjoy it. If youth of the region do not possess the skills and resources to utilize the park's natural resources, they are strangers in their own land.
Rural areas across the country suffer from the same situation which has been labeled as a 'brain drain' or 'bright flight.' It's a situation that occurs when many of the best and the brightest students leave town for college and never look back.
As the 'wired generation' continues to tighten their bonds to the virtual world, our children will likely spend less time in the local world of forests and streams. If they don't use the land for pleasure and recreation, they may not develop the strong bonds to the land that their parents or grandparents possessed. As a result, the land will not have a hold on them and it will be easier for them to leave.
