Many solutions (168 comments)
I think I would have each family member that wants to be part of this shared drive do something like:
- each of you buy the biggest HDD available
- setup a ssh tunnel in the form of a circle between each family member, where Alice connects to Bob, Bob connects to Charlie, and Charlie connects to Alice.
- each family member then rsync's to the next family member over, where they would do a full rsync of the shared disk, but do an rsync --delete on directories that belong to themselves, so if they delete / move files around, it makes the needed corrections on other family members shared disks without wasting space.
If you are running Windows, you can setup a scheduled task to at a time in the middle of the night to launch cygwin, open the ssh tunnel, and rsync away. If it is linux, setup a crontab. Initial coordination would need to be done to get everything right, but then it would be very automatable.
I do not suggest trying to setup a distributed filesystem across the internet. There are many pitfalls. Whereas this solution, your only concern is, 1) is ssh up? 2) did rsync run? 3) is the disk full?

Not in the slightest. MtGox has been in a death spiral for almost half a year. Please read my earlier response.
Re:Looks more like manipulation (249 comments)
This problem has been in the making for months. The reason the price was always ~$150 more than any other exchange was because you couldn't get money out of MtGox, and if you could, it would take a very long time if it ever got processed. There are many theories why this happened, several suggested that whatever bank they were using in Japan was setting some daily limits on how much money they could move. So in turn, in order to get unhitched from MtGox holding your money, you could opt to buy BTC from the exchange, and since everyones money was being held hostage, the people with BTC in the exchange could inflate the price. Watching there 30 day volume and you could clearly see things were grinding to a halt over there for a good long while now.
Anyone in the United States who deals with BTC's likely either uses Bitstamp, BTCe, or localbitcoins and has avoided MtGox like the plague they became. I personally use localbitcoins, because there is no fee's to sell, and you can get people to walk into a branch of your bank and deposit money directly to you and not have to worry about bank wire fee's in order to move your USDs out of an exchange.

The most interesting astronomy gear I've seen the results of recently are from a Pentax digital SLR camera that does image stabilization by moving the sensor, and has a GPS in it.

Re:Custom Builds (564 comments)
After friends/relatives/neighbors wanted me to work on their pos dell/gateway/emachines/sony.. I talked most of them into building one for their next upgrade instead of going back to shit companys who won't support you anyway unless you pay. alot.
Most of them went for the custom machine easy. Half the price. Better preformance. No crapware on top. And if i have to 'support' them. I don't want to do it for shitty machines. I built more than a few of them for people too. $50.. an hour of my time picking parts. an hour assembling and installing windows. $25 an hour for something i enjoy doing. Everyones happy and it ends up alot less work and downtime/problems for everyone in the future.
You sound like me ten year ago. I know everyone is different, but get out while you can. If you get more friends and family coming to you, you'll find more and more things breaking, more problems coming up, with expectations that your weekends are no longer yours. And more often than not, over time, these same friends and family will begin expecting you to just fix it, and may even get rude or cause you issues if you expect much more than a "Thank You! Till next time I my smoking causes my GPU to fail due to the dust gunk that caked over the heatsink causing it to overheat for the last few months". And somehow, again over time, they'll come to blame you for these problems that you should have been able to warn them about or prevent. I still assist close friends with anything I can help them with, because they aren't assholes, but some "friends" and definitely some family will take advantage of you. If you feel the desire to pursue this line of work, find a way to do it professionally, and only deal with customers.

Sports Calendar
October 1
Baseball playoffs begin
The postseason, for those who may have forgotten the playoff format first used last year, is now a three-stage process, beginning with four Division Series, followed by League Championship Series, and then the World Series, which opens Oct. 18. Despite a late-season slump, the pitching-rich Atlanta Braves have to be considered the favorite to defend their championship.
October 4
National Hockey League season opens
Wayne Gretzky is with a new team again, the Colorado Avalanche are the reigning Stanley Cup champions, and the Montreal Canadiens prepare to play their first full season in the Molson Centre, which has replaced the venerable old Forum. Gretzky, the league's all-time scoring leader, went from Los Angeles to St. Louis last season and now rejoins former Edmonton teammate Mark Messier with the New York Rangers.
October 5
Penn State versus Ohio State (football)
The two top-ranked teams in the Big Ten Conference clash in Columbus, Ohio. Despite the graduation of Heisman Trophy-winner Eddie George, the Buckeyes are only one place behind No. 3 Penn State in the latest AP poll and hungry to earn their way to the Rose Bowl, where they last appeared in 1974 (amazing!). They blew it last year, losing to Michigan in the season's final game to ruin a perfect season and open the door for Northwestern to play in Pasadena. Northwestern lost this season's opener to Wake Forest.
October 20
Head of the Charles Regatta
Rowers from around the world flock to Boston to dip their oars in the Charles River and participate in the largest rowing event held in the United States. Approximately 1,000 boats, from single sculls to eight-oared shells, will go off at timed intervals. About a quarter million spectators are expected.

HOLLYWOOD HOOKUP (FOX44) – Ginger Lee is trying to set the record straight today. "I did not sext Anthony Weiner. I did not send photos to him or receive any from him." Saying the only reason why she started following him on twitter was because she supported him politically. Ms. Lee says his tweets got more sexual but she just ignored them. Ginger says when the scandal broke Weiner told her to lie about everything.
– British singer Joss Stone was the target of a bizarre robbery and murder plot. Police arrested 2-men on Monday near her home and say they were armed with swords, a rope, and a body bag. They also had detailed maps of the singer's property. It seems they were after the 24-year-old's $15-million in the bank.
– America's most expensive home is close to being sold. Sources say a 22-year-old heiress of Formula One Racing is after the Spelling mansion. The home was originally listed at 150-million dollars.
– We're getting updates about Clarence Clemons condition via his band mate Bruce Springsteen. On Springsteen's facebook he says the E Street saxophonist has a long recovery ahead of him after that stroke he suffered over the weekend.
– There may have been a little too much celebrating for Dallas Mav's guard Deshawn Stevenson. He was arrested last night for public intoxication in Texas. TMZ says police found Stevenson wandering around an apartment complex. He posted bail this morning and was released.
Tune in every night at 9:00 p.m. on FOX44 News Baton Rouge for more Hollywood hookup.

I think it gets too clumpy. It dpends a lot on how you apply mascara, but somer mascaras are just not that great. I can apply just a little of this mascara, and it works fine. But when I go out and get doled up, I really just prefer my lancome mascara. This is okay for every day use, and around town. But as soon as I try to put any excessive amount on my eye lashes,it just clumps up. But you get what you pay for.

One of my absolute favorite mascaras. The quality of this is much better than some high-end products, but for only $7 at drugstores.
I love the brush. It evenly coats my lashes and separates them. The formula is awesome too. It thickens and lengthens my lashes without feeling too heavy or irritating. The formula isn't super wet and doesn't flake or smudge. I sometimes forget that I'm wearing it. You can wear many coats to the point where it looks like you have on falsies, and it doesn't get clumpy or spidery.
Great buy. Amazing quality for the price.

I don't like to splurge on mascara, and this has been my go-to for years. Throughout my makeup journey I've upgraded to pricier purchases for the rest of my routine. And I thought, "better upgrade my mascara." I went with the benefit "they're real" (or whatever it's called) and was horrified. Thirty bucks for a mascara that doesn't hold a candle to this $7 stuff! This is dark, stays put, and thickens up my lashes wonderfully. I add a few individual lashes to the edges and voila- couldn't ask for more.

I have tried several mascaras. This one stays put. Other mascaras smudge and flake on me. With other mascaras, even some high end ones, i have dark bags under my eyes by the end of the day. Not with this one. This mascara keeps my blonde eyelashes dark & defined until i wash it off. I have been using it for about 5 months. It was recommended by a person who washed my hair at a hair salon. I asked her what she recommends cuz she had great makeup. Some other mascaras initially seem darker, but by the end of the day turn into black smudges and flakes. This one is dark enough and stays put. Definitely a better choice.

MY one and only beloved mascara. No other comes near it. No other makes my eyelashes look as great as this one. I actually spend the time to apply properly. I use the first coat then spend the time to separate them. I use a second coat mostly from the top 2/3 and it makes my eyelashes pop. It holds up through my long 12hr shifts without any problem. Only downside is if I forget and rub my eyes it burns like hell.

I always find myself coming back to this mascara. On its own it isn't too special, but if you use this before other mascaras it is amazing. I think all mascaras should be combined with another for best results. I love the brush on this. It really separates the lashes well. No clumps. I usually use this before Calvin Klein or benefit mascara. Really really good. Will probably always repurchase!

The Family Portrait
Most of my portrait work is all about photographing young children and their families. In most cases I have been working with these families for years. This session I'm about to share with you is one of my most recent.
Whether the age group of the children is between 3-5, or a more adult family like these three children ages 10-17 with their dogs, it's always a challenge to come up with new ideas and expressions that tell some kind of story and reflect where they are in their lives. Most of my sessions are about documenting a certain time in my client's life. With this family, Charlotte, who is now 17 is a senior in High School. My task is to create a senior portrait for her along with photographing the whole family and each individual child.

A car driver died after an altercation with the driver of another car over an accident at L.B. Nagar, on Wednesday.
Forty-year-old Syed Iqbal was driving an Indica while taking three passengers from Shamshabad to Ramoji film city when he overtook a Mercedes Benz near Chinthalkunta. His vehicle grazed past the Benz car.
Angered by this, the driver of the Benz car intercepted Iqbal's car. "They both got off their vehicles and entered into an argument. The two drivers didn't attack one another but suddenly Iqbal collapsed, falling on his back," the LB Nagar Inspector P. Srinivas Reddy said.
The driver suffered a contusion on the back of his head and fell unconscious. He was shifted to a hospital where doctors declared him brought dead.
The L.B. Nagar police registered a case of suspicious death under section 174 of Criminal Procedure Code and got the autopsy performed.
Except the contusion on the rear of the driver's head, no other injury was found on his body, the police said. Based on the findings of the post-mortem examination, further action will be initiated in the case, they said.

If you are going to apply some laws of physics/thermodynamics (or whatever!) then it is pointless to argue about fire vs. lightning. Animes are crazy and unpredictable. Questions like these keep One Piece fanatics up all night! xD

Kim Kardashian Keeps Us Guessing About Her Super Bowl Pick (PHOTOS)
Gee, anyone have any idea who Kim Kardashian's rooting for in the Big Game this year?
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star remained tight-lipped about her allegiances in a post on her official Web site, after the New Orleans Saints—for whom her boyfriend, Reggie Bush, plays—secured a spot in the game.
Offering few clues, the cagey reality-TV personality wrote,
"I really can't believe I am writing this post! The New Orleans Saints are going to the Super Bowl!!! Reggie deserves this, the team deserves this and the town of New Orleans deserves this! I could not be more proud! Super Bowl baby!"
Oh, Kim; why must you always be so mysterious?

Book Launch: How Enemies Become Friends: The Sources of Stable Peace
November 04, 2010 // 3:30pm — 5:00pm
Imminent violence and war make news headlines, while longstanding peace and good inter-state relations hardly seem newsworthy. By contrast, Charles Kupchan's new book, How Enemies Become Friends: The Sources of Stable Peace, focuses on the origins of peace rather than war. While war is certainly big news, he posits that the bigger news is that the US-Canada border has been consistently peaceful for more than a century, or that only 68 years after France and Germany fought two world wars, people can now drive across the border as though it does not exist. His new book seeks to identify the dynamics that lead countries to achieve lasting peace.

Two new positions introduced by the Lisbon Treaty will significantly affect EU's ability to conduct foreign policy: the permanent Presidency of the European Union and the appointment of a High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. Anne-Marie Le Gloannec argued that the EU's ability to formulate and execute a common foreign policy foreign remains questionable because the Lisbon Treaty "does not simplify representation; does not conjure up coherence; and does not muster will." Given these problems, she argued that Europeans should continue to develop institutions and cooperative representation outside the scope of EU institutions.

Older Acura TLs
varmint Posts: 6,326
kyfdx Posts: 31,922Its a valid point... Its even mentioned when people buy 2-seat convertibles. One of the pros of the Porsche Boxster is the storage space compared to an S2000. Probably not the main point for most people, but we all have different needs. Just because the marketing people call it a sports sedan, doesn't mean you can't use it for a family car.
Prices Paid, Lease Questions, SUVs -
s852 Posts: 1,051You should replace your battery when it starts to get weak. If the car was sitting overnight, it is actually more likely to start than if you tried to start the car 10 minutes later. The lights are not draining the battery overnight since they are only on 30 seconds.
Often the charge comes back enough to restart the car after it has been sitting for a while. Many people have called tow trucks for dead batteries, but by the time the tow truck arrives, the car is able to start without jumper cables.
If the battery is so weak that leaving the lights on for 30 seconds kills it, it was time for a new battery months ago. -
tyresmoker Posts: 266Bottom line, it is a give and take. Also known as a compromise. To me, as long as a set of sticks will fit back there, I am fine with it. If that drivers seat does not go back far enough...that is a different story.
(Of course having a full-size SUV in the other bay of the garage solves most space issues that come up!) -
king_george Posts: 33i'll take more handling vs. trunk space any day...i'm glad Acura is taking a more sporty philosophy with their new TL. In my opinion their are a lot of luxury sedans with tons of space out their like the es 330. I'm glad acura went in the direction they did...i'll deal with the lack of trunk space. BTW...i've read that they've confirmed that the new TL has a lockable pass through & the rear seats can also fold down!
uncledavid Posts: 548
tyresmoker Posts: 266
gouldn Posts: 221To me, I can deal with a smaller trunk if the seats fold-down. I rarely carry passengers, but prefer a 4-dr for the times when I do. I occasionally carry larger items (R/C planes), and having a fold-down seat allows me to use a sedan almost as a wagon. I wonder why more cars do not have this feature ... is it expensive to add, or considered an 'anti-luxury' feature?
bodble2 Posts: 4,519I think a fold-down seat has a negative effect on the structural rigidity of the car, the same way a sunroof also weakens the structure. And there's the anti-luxury thing too. Rich folks don't need to haul bulky items with their own cars, or at least would have another vehicle more suited to such peasant labour!
mckennamd Posts: 11Flat out gorgeous. I live in Ft. Myers, FL. Scanlon Acura had two AT's in. They are not allowed to sell them until the 6th. The salesman said they are going to Miami next week for a big intro show. Its funny how everyone on these boards knows 10X more than the dealers about these cars.
They had one white, one black, both with camel leather. With that color interior, you get wood inlays (I think they are fake, but look great) instead of the carbon-fiber trim. The cabin is beautifully layed out. Seats are comfortable. My quick impression was that they could have a little more lateral support, but that is nit-picking. I really like the look and feel of the steering wheel. Plenty of room in the back seat. I put the drivers seat all the way back and then sat in the back. I had no trouble fitting comfortably (I am 6 feet tall). Very comfortable back seat as well. BTW, the trunk is plenty big enough. You may not get the fourth golf bag in, but 3 easy.
The black was gorgeous. The car is simply striking in that color. I will test drive one next week. I probably will wait for a 6-speed to come in for that, though.
BTW, they were $33,150, I believe. No Nav. They are MSRP, but no mark-up. (Down the street, Nissan is trying to sell a Maxima 3.5SE for $40K!!! That's more than $6K in rediculous add-ons and straight mark-up. I laughed at that guy.)
I asked the Acura dealer about A-SPEC versions, but he had never heard of them. We will see when he returns from Miami. -
s852 Posts: 1,051
jmess Posts: 677One of the reason I passed on the previous TL was due to the rear seat(s) not folding down. Looks like Acura didn't figured out that even folks that can afford to UPS bulky items between Costco and home still want some basic utility. It was really a dumb move not to fix this in the new car.
zhangqj Posts: 15While waiting for service of my TL, I test-drove a TSX 6MT, nice little dressed up Accord, but not impressed. I did see the new 2004 TL in the lot. They look ok, not as bad as BMW E60. It has a few more features but costs more. Dealer told me that the 2004 TL with 6MT will come in Nov. I will definitely want to test that one. However I am kinda disappointed when told that there is no plan Acura will put that 270 horses to the rear axles! I dont understand why. Honda certainly knows how to do it. The NSX in the dealer lot is awesome (except the price)!
s852 Posts: 1,051You already commented that it cost more as it is. It would have added even more to development costs and the price to switch the design to rear wheel drive.
It is more likely that the new RL might be rear wheel drive to make it stand out more as the flagship so there will be fewer people saying "why should I pay so much more for an RL when I can just get a rear wheel drive TL?"
It would not be surprising if in a year or two a AWD version of the TL came out with over 270HP.
If the new TL is handling the current 270HP well, then making it rear wheel drive would have been a wasted added cost just to say it had rear wheel drive plus you would get more people complaining about handling in snow etc.. -
tturedraider Posts: 159It is true that fold down seats compromise structural integrity. The way Nissan mitigated this was by making the opening smaller. When you fold the seat down you don't get an opening as big in area as the seatbacks. Instead you get a fairly good size "hole" probably half the area of the seatbacks.

buffs94 Posts: 2I just bought a new 04 TL yesterday. It is such a sweet car! They were not supposed to go on sale until the 6th, but dealers were received authorization to sell them early. I bought a blue automatic without the navigation system. Nothing else in this class even comes close to this car.
kennyg5 Posts: 360I also have that feature in my car, which I think is quite nice, especially when you have to go through several dark tunnels during the daytime. The only problem with this feature is that it turns the xenon HIDs on and off repeatedly, which I do not believe is good for the expensive HIDs. Perhaps by giving you this convenient feature, the automakers think you will have to buy more replacement headlights from them in the long run. Am I being cynical?

Not just for source code – Versioning with Git
Distributed Management
When several people collaborate on source code or documents, things can get messy fast. Git provides a quick cure: The distributed versioning system reliably ensures the integrity and consistency of data with minimal effort.
Documents and source code that are used, changed, and processed by multiple users are often located on a central file server while individuals work with local copies. Searching manually for differences between individual documents often leaves questions as to whether a newer version of a document exists, and if so, who is behind it. A versioning system, as employed with many software projects, can help tidy up the mess. One of the most powerful contenders in this field is Git.
Git was developed in 2005 by Linus Torvalds to manage the Linux kernel source code. To do this, Git had to meet a number of requirements.

Matching colored items - will it ever get old? We used to think so, but Xbox Live Arcade games like Hexic, Astropop and Zuma Deluxe have convinced us otherwise. And even if you already own the other two, Zuma's worth your precious Microsoft Points too.
If you're a Bust-A-Move fan (or if you played the old PlayStation game Ballistic), you'll recognize Zuma 's basic setup. Your pivoting gun (in this case, a frog idol) fires colored stones into an ongoing chain, with the goal of eliminating pieces of the chain by matching colors. Keep the chain from reaching the end of a fixed track, or you lose a life - and eventually, the game.

I am replacing our sofa and love seat and am wondering if that combination is outdated. I really have to be careful with size and will have a bit of trouble finding two chairs that are small enough to take the place of a love seat. One person only likes to sits on a loveseat and usually two people on a sofa. We don't have much company so seating is usually not a problem. Or maybe I could just go with one chair and the sofa. Any ideas? |

Morning! If a loveseat is what your household prefers than I would go w/ a sofa loveseat combo again. Don't limit yourself but what is in or out. Personally I prefer the sofa & chair combo for greater flexibility of arrangement. Maybe you could start w/ a sofa & one chair and then add a 2nd if there is room enough. Smaller scale chairs are out there, I promise! I have small scale armchairs in our home because of space restrictions. |
I am older and was having trouble being able to move my large sofa/loveseat to clean. I got rid of them and have some comfy lightweight furniture and chose a loveseat and two chairs. There is also a beanbag in the corner. So far it has been enough to seat family members or guests. |
I've never been a fan of the sofa/loveseat combo, esp. matching sets. I think loveseats are wastes of space, since rarely do two people actually sit in them. But having said that, TheFoxesPad is correct: go by what works best in your room and for you. A pic of the room would certainly help people here brainstorm for you. There may be yet another option out there. |
I had a sofa and 2 chairs in my LR. The flexibility of arrangements is greater. And only 1 person ever sits on a loveseat. BUT, if your home flows better with a sofa/loveseat combo, then that's the way for you to go! |

I would prefer two loveseats to a sofa and loveseat unless you need to nap on the sofa. I think sofas are a waste of space as no more than 2 people ever seem to sit on a sofa. Two people can also sit on a love seat and that opens up the floor for more chairs, chairs which I like. I like the variety of chairs. You can add chairs near the sofa, around the perimeter of the wall behind the loveseat or sofa if there is enough space and also create L's and T's and U's with the use of loveseat/sofa and chairs. Chairs can flank the fireplace, can sit beside the sofa, by the loveseat, behind or nearby. I love chairs, all kinds of chairs and a couple loveseats are just as nice as a sofa and loveseat or very short, matching sofas. You can add an ottoman (or two) for extra seating if needed. I am not a big fan of matching sofa/loveseat. I am a big fan of matching short sofas or matching loveseats. |
I like a sofa and at least one upholstered chair for the family, but a range of other chairs of perhaps smaller scale that can be pulled up when you have parties/guests. We forget that people coming for dinner don't feel it is necessary to sprawl all over your living room--they understand that no one has (or very few people have) space for a dozen fully upholstered seats. If they are having a good time, they'll perch on anything you offer. |
definitely a sofa and 2 chairs, have noticed decorators NEVER use loveseats...have u considered a sectional? that eliminates 2 end tables and lamps... |
I don't think any option needs to look dated or outdated, but instead I would focus on the flexibility of the two options. I think that a sofa and two chairs would give you the most flexibility for seating. There are many small scale yet comfortable chairs out there, but as you mention you just have to be careful with regard to sizing. Regarding seating on a sofa (or sectional or loveseat), I have grown to appreciate that people sit according to the number of seat cushions, so that on a smaller sofa a single bench cushion would give you the most seating flexibility. |

I think people really hate to say something is outdated here! IMHO,yes, a sofa and a loveseat combo do look outdated. Look online at remodeled rooms, look in mags, you will not see it anywhere. In fact, I am not sure how much decorators ever used it. I think most decorators would find its matchy-matchiness boring. They'd rather have an opportunity to vary height, styles, colors, textures. Also, it takes up a lot of physical and visual space to drop those two landmasses into a room. In a lot of living rooms, you would not have space for much else. |

I used to have a sofa and loveseat and now have a sofa and two chairs. The loveseat was moved to a small sitting room, and I still like it for reading. I never sit in the chairs because they don't have an ottoman, so it's not very loungy for a two hour movie. DH sits in a chair though and it doesn't bother him, but he's from Scandinavian Lutheran stock. If you don't have the room for an ottoman, I wouldn't do two chairs. |

I prefer sofa and chairs. |
Thanks everyone. I have some thinking to do. Will try and post a pic if I can figure it out. |
I have a matching sofa and loveseat. :) I would say they are boring in many ways. I've been wanting to replace both of them but have waited until my cats have grown out of their destructive phase. It's taken three years, but we may finally be getting there. I like the option of stretching out for a quick nap on the sofa. It's true that no one really wants to share a loveseat (misnomer) unless forced to. What I really don't get is sectionals. I understand they can be a one (large) piece solution to a room. What I don't like about them is the deep corner where you can't really sit up straight (I'm short) and the lack of a ready light and somewhere to set a drink, aside from leaning forward and using the coffee table. I need a good light and an end table at my side. That may not be trendy. |

Hi Linelle, we have a large sectional in our family room. We have a big sq ottoman, no coffee table. However, along one length of the sofa we have a large console with lighting and a place to put a drink. |
Maybe try thinking a little differently. We went with four chairs and a round coffee table. I love the look and it is comfortable when we have company. We do have a sofa and two chairs in our family room and in the library, too, but the four chairs is my favorite set up. Planning to get rid of the family room sofa, too, I think! :) |
As one who frequently stays in other people's homes, I dread the homes with only loveseats and chairs, i.e.: no sofa. I like to stretch out on sofas to read, watch TV, nap, etc. I even bring my own pillows so I don't have to icky-up the owner's sofa pillows. Lying sideways on a loveseat, with your legs up on the farm arm and your knees in your face is not my idea of "welcome to my home; make yourself comfortable"! |

Vera, a friend who is a decorator (married to an architect) has three identical love seats in her great room. She may be the only decorator who ever used a love seat in decor, but they look splendid. |

jterrylynn, I don't think your room looks dated at all. In fact, I think it is of the moment and very pretty. I think we often cannot visualize what a poster is saying or we do not have the same setting. Just like the decorator with 3 love seats. It is gorgeous but it is almost one of those things "you have to see." |
- Posted by mtnrdredux (My Page) on Mon, Jul 28, 14 at 9:56
Jterri, But you don't have a loveseat. You have two sofas, and they read like a sectional. I like the way you put the animal skin over the oriental. Cool. Is that a fan overhead, BTW? If it is I've always wondered if that kind does a good job cooling ... Two's of loveseats could look nice (symmetry) and so could three's (three of anything looks good, plus there is a novelty factor). But A loveseat with A sofa... I personally don't care for that look, in part because it was pushed for so long by mainstream furniture retailers. |
We must be very odd. Three people do sit on my sofa, if necessary and when I had a love seat two sat there when necessary! In the living room we have sofa and two chairs. Downstairs we opted for two sofas. The kids grew up in this room and it was nice that they each could sprawl out on a sofa while watching tv. One is a convertible which has come in handy. |

My Mom's living room was big enough for a sofa, loveseat, and two chairs. For years, the sofa and loveseat were perpendicular to each other, with the chairs opposite. One day we rearranged, and put the love seat opposite the sofa, with one chair on each side, angled toward the center of the room. In the original configuration, the loveseat was rarely used; when it was moved, it became the most popular seat in the house, for one or two people. Now Mom lives in a smaller apartment, so she has a love seat, 2 upholstered chairs, and a wooden rocking chair. Her friends - in their 70's - avoid the love seat, because it is difficult for them to get out of it. They gravitate toward the rocking chair with strong, sturdy arms, even though it is not as comfortable. |
I vote loveseat and chairs. I have found people prefer to sit with at least one arm, which means no one likes the middle of a couch but in my world they happily sit two on a love seat. A couch takes up more room than I want to afford it, for the seating it provides. |

I think three loveseats would look weird... Sofas are nice and everyone is used to them... they make the room. I'd swap your set up for an L shaped corner sofa. |

Mtn, yes it's an animal skin which is a dime a dozen now discounted on many sites. However it works for me because I already had the big carpet. I had a problem with the dominant color of the kitchen cabinets taking over in the open plan so the animal skin helped ground the living space. It also helped with blending the Fred Flintstone fireplace in the open dining room on far side. The ceiling fan works well! At first the decorative light surround thingy made a rattle noise when the fan was on high, which was very annoying. We just dabbed a tic of clear silicone on one section and that took care of it. I agree about the loveseat not always being useful which is why I went with a three seater and a four seater. I decided against a sectional because most people do not like the corner section as it's hard to get out of. The other problem with a sectional was that if I wanted to lie down while husband was, my feet would be in his face during movie watching. He does not have a foot fetish so that wouldn't work. For my needs we wanted two items that you could stretch out on for movies or watching series shows. But again, I think it all should be about how and who's using the room. Some people only have room for so much seating. I think where people go wrong on the sofa and loveseat thing is that the pieces are often way too bulky for the space. |

Lol. You are right about the corner ... But in our house when it's movie time, the girls and i all make a run for the corner, since it's so cozy. With 5 of us, feet go on a big sq ottoman in the middle. |
- Posted by jterrilynn (My Page) on Mon, Jul 28, 14 at 12:02
Mtn, and that's exactly my point. Seating should be all about how one will use the room. And, oh I so miss those cuddle movie days with my now grown boys. |

DD is using a large round coffee table with four chairs, rather than the standard sofa/loveseat combo. I think she's wanting 2 slipper type and 2 with arms. It's a LR right off the foyer and she wants it to function as what she cals a 'lounge' space. With the DR right off to the side, it will be a nice space to have drinks before dinner, quiet when the kids are being entertained in the family room. |
- Posted by mtnrdredux (My Page) on Mon, Jul 28, 14 at 17:09
Patty and Cyn, I have that too, in our living room (which also has window seats). I really like it for adult guests. I think if you have a separate living room it is the way to go. But if it is also a TV watching space, family/cuddle room, you need a sofa. |
Sofa + love seat = 3 people Sofa + two chairs = 4 people |
Hi again. Well, I just purchased a sofa and two chairs in a caramel leather and I think that will work. But I had promised hubby a swivel recliner, so I also bought a recliner in a coordinating fabric. Hope it looks good. It's going to take up to three months before they will be ready. Bummer! |

Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MCSA)
Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions fund mobility, training and career development in academia, industry and other non-academic sectors. The calls are open to all research areas, apart from nuclear energy research. The funding schemes are:
- Innovative Training Networks (ITN) which aim to train a new generation of creative, entrepreneurial and innovative researchers through initial and doctoral training of early-stage researchers. Projects typically involve a partnership of universities, research institutions, research infrastructures, businesses, SMEs and other socio-economic organisations from across Europe and abroad. There are three types of ITN: the European Training Networks (ETN), the European Industrial Doctorates (EID) and the European Joint Doctorates (EJD).
- Individual Fellowships (IF) fund an experienced researcher on a research fellowship aimed at diversifying their skills through advanced training and international and/or intersectoral mobility. The scheme also funds researchers who wish to re-start their careers after a break away from research as well as supporting the re-integration of researchers outside of Europe who have previously worked in Europe.
- Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE). This scheme aims to promote international and inter-sectoral collaboration through research and innovation staff exchanges that will enable knowledge sharing and advance science and development of innovation. Projects will fund staff exchanges between Europe and other non-European counties (known as 'third countries') and/or inter-sectoral exchanges between academic and non-academic partners. Staff exchanges can include various types of staff such as early-stage researchers, experienced researchers, administrative, managerial and technical staff.
- Cofunding of regional, national and international programmes (COFUND). The COFUND scheme co-funds new or existing multi-annual doctoral or fellowship programmes which are run at regional, national and international level. It supports researcher training, mobility and career development which is international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary.
- Researchers' Night (NIGHT) funds public/media events held on the last Friday of September. The events should promote the public awareness of research and innovation activities and of individual researchers with the aims of encouraging young people to take up scientific careers.
