Crosspost from Lighting Forum - Kitchen Lighting Layout Questions
We are DYI'ing a kitchen remodel. We are in the final stages of nailing down the layout. Work is getting stalled in part because of lighting. We had originally said we'd skip recessed lighting but we've had a change of heart. My partner is now sold on LED recessed lighting for the kitchen - and maybe short hallway right off of it.
We are in a small 1952 ranch with short ceilings (89 1/2"). I want to put 2-3 mini-pendants over the peninsula, but my top choices there are more for accent lighting and not really about task lighting. I just like the idea of having a bit of sparkle there when we aren't cooking.
The problem is, it seems lighting is really a specialty area and hard for first-time DYI'ers to get right. It doesn't seem like the kind of thing you want to get wrong. I'm looking into local options to get some consultations, but so far, that hasn't gone so great.
I'm hoping we can get some input from both professionals and experienced remodelers here.
This is the kitchen, with the rafters in place along with a beginning point for lighting layout:
The DR is to the left of the kitchen. The entry/small living area is to the bottom. To the right is the small hall that leads to the bath, laundry and bedrooms.
I'm not sure what size we should go for the lighting, how far to put them out from the walls/around the perimeter and how many we need. It would be NICE not to have holes all over the kitchen. Right now there is nothing over the fridge area and entry into the kitchen, either. Not sure if that's a problem.
As small as the kitchen is, it seems like maybe one row of recessed down the middle would make sense, but I read that you don't want that as it will cast shadows when you are working on the counter. We will have UCL on the exterior wall that has uppers. On the small range wall/nook, we will only have the range hood lighting - unless we maybe put little lights to accent the tile wall and counters that will be there or something?
Thanks so much in advance!

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
24 Jan 2013 18:10 GMT | Sport, Football, Gabon, Ghana, Mali
Four-time champions Ghana defeated Mali 1-0 on Thursday to shoot to the top of Group B at the Africa Cup of Nations.
The Black Stars have four points while Mali slipped to second place on three points.
Ghana dominated this encounter with Mali lacking the firepower to trouble their opponents even after the introduction of fit-again West Ham striker Modibo Maiga.
Mubarak Wakaso put Ghana in front from the penalty spot in the 38th minute after the lively Emmanuel Agyeman Badu was brought down inside the box by experienced left-back Adama Tamboura.
Wakaso will miss his team's final group game on Monday against Niger after he was booked for his celebration - his second caution of the competition.
More disciplined
Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah said: "We were much more tactically disciplined in this game than against DR Congo, but I know we can do a lot better than we did today."
"It was a difficult game. We needed to win and now we have four points, but we need more to qualify to the next stage and so we will not underrate Niger. "
- Asamoah Gyan, Ghana captain
Captain Asamoah Gyan said: "It was a difficult game. We needed to win and now we have four points, but we need more to qualify to the next stage and so we will not underrate Niger."
This was the third time the west African countries clashed in the tournament within a year.
Ghana won a group game 2-0 in Gabon at the 2012 tournament before Mali gained revenge by winning 2-0 to clinch third place.
In a cautious first half, Ghana created more chances.
After eight minutes, Mali skipper Seydou Keita's free kick from the top of the box, after goalkeeper Fatau Dauda handled outside his area, narrowly missed the target with the goalkeeper beaten.
Thereafter, it was Ghana all the way.
On 13 minutes, Gyan saw his shot from inside the box blocked for a corner.
Badu's header in the 32nd minute off a Wakaso free-kick came back off the foot of the post with Mali goalkeeper Mamadou Samassa beaten.
Mali began the second half brightly and veteran Keita just failed to connect with a clever chip by Mahamane Traore, who had a shot tipped over by Dauda.
A Wakaso free-kick was not far off target and a Gyan shot nearly caught the Mali goalkeeper napping.
Badu had a free-kick scrambled away for a corner and substitute Solomon Asante almost made an immediate impact when he latched on to a loose ball only to miss.

Bolton: If you can do it for Boeing ...
WHILE THE positive things that have been written and said about the way S.C. lawmakers laid aside their differences and grievances - large and small - and banded together to land the Boeing Co. are well-deserved, it's time to ask the big question:
If you can do it for Boeing - if you can roll out the red carpet, if you can forgive millions in taxes, if you can put together a multimillion-dollar incentive package for a large, well-financed company from outside South Carolina - why can't you do it for the poor school districts struggling to educate this state's children, the human well from which Boeing and other companies need to draw employees if we're going to increase per capita income and lift the fortunes of our state?
When poor districts came to the state asking for money so they could give students the opportunity to get a high-quality education, the state chose to fight against its children rather than embrace them. Year after year, children in poor communities go to ill-equipped schools staffed by some of the least-experienced, worst-prepared teachers.
Lots of work went into the Boeing deal, and with good reason. Boeing's new 787 aircraft assembly line planned for North Charleston is expected to generate at least 3,800 jobs over a seven-year period. An arm of the Budget and Control Board says it will create a $10 billion economic impact during the next 15 years.
State officials privately crafted a $450 million incentive package to seal the deal. It's the largest incentive package South Carolina has ever offered; few who voted for it, let alone taxpayers who'll pay for it, know all the details. Lawmakers had to tinker with several state laws.
Reasonable people could argue that they acted hastily and aren't sure whether they gave away too much; they could argue the deal was far too secretive. But reasonable people also would have to acknowledge this was a deal that had to get done: Lawmakers knew it was a once-in-a-lifetime deal and jumped at the opportunity. They should feel good about what they did.
But ensuring that a child gets a good education is a once-in-a-lifetime deal as well. It's a deal we've been neglecting for generations. Yes, we've put significant focus on education and have made some admirable strides. But we've still got a long way to go.
It's not that lawmakers haven't tried. There's a special Senate committee, for example, that's been working for several years now to try to formulate a plan to fix our schools. All too often, though, such efforts fizzle out.
While our governor didn't get in the way of the Boeing deal, he has been a significant impediment to closing the deal for our kids. We've spent much of the past seven years fending off voucher advocates - well-funded by outside sources - rather than concentrating on improving our public schools, as we should have. The outsiders picked South Carolina largely due to the welcome mat Gov. Mark Sanford so willingly presented.
That doesn't let lawmakers off the hook. They can work around a governor any time they want to. What's it going take to get them as excited about our children and their future - the real keys to South Carolina's future?
I wonder, while we were courting Boeing, if we told executives how we treat our children? While they were going back and forth with union workers in Washington state and considering South Carolina, in part because we don't have such a strong labor presence, did we tell them how we were in court fighting against our children - some of their potential employees?
For 16 years, nearly three dozen poor, rural districts have contended that the state should provide extra money to improve the quality of education children in poverty receive. They argue their kids don't get the constitutionally guaranteed "minimally adequate" education that students in wealthier communities get.
Unfortunately, where you live in this state dictates the quality of education you're likely to receive. But lawmakers have the power to remedy that, just as they had the power to hook Boeing.
What will it take for lawmakers to summon the same political will, focus and urgency to act on students' behalf that they mustered for Boeing?
Truth is, lawmakers need to develop the will and find the common ground that was so apparent in the Boeing courtship for more than just schools and our children. There are so many other ways lawmakers could help this state's people if they would just decide that the well-being of the citizens of South Carolina ranks at least as high - higher actually, but at least as high would be an improvement - as the needs of a Boeing.
I'm ecstatic Boeing is coming, but we must take care of our own.
If lawmakers would lay aside their political and other hang-ups that only serve to gum up the good work government can do, they could accomplish so much.
If they wanted to, they could restructure state government in a way that it actually works for, instead of against, citizens. If the Employment Security Commission reported to someone accountable to voters, it would be less likely to overlook the need to change the law so federal aid wouldn't run out for South Carolinians who have been laid off. If the Department of Health and Environmental Control had to answer to the governor, someone who's going to hold its feet to the fire, it's not as likely to roll over for lawmakers looking to do a favor for a friend while overlooking years and years of complaints residents have about a tainted water system.
If they want to, lawmakers can raise the cigarette tax. They can sign off on a statewide 4K program to give our kids the early start they need toward a quality education. They can ban workplace smoking statewide.
The quick, efficient, no-squabbling way lawmakers handled the Boeing deal stripped away any excuses they have for failure. It reveals that they can get things done - if they want to.
They did it for Boeing. They can do it for South Carolina.

Business Description:Hunter Hall International (HHL) is engaged in an investment management business operating through wholly owned subsidiaries. HHL currently manages four investment trusts and Australian Equities Fund, which applies an Ethical Investment Policy.
Strategy Analysis:HHL's objective is to develop a small premium quality investment and savings institution with a focus on international equities. The main challenge is to scale up a largely successful investment process which previously depended on the stockpicking talents of Executive Chairman Peter Hall. HHL has installed a more rigorous risk management and research process, has reduced portfolio concentration and has appointed a chief investment officer. The strategy is to increase FUM in the unlisted vehicles by using strong investment performance to attract net inflows. HHL's strategy for listed investment company Hunter Hall Global Value is to generate good investment returns and build assets so that HHV becomes the international equivalent of Argo Investments and Australian Foundation Investment Company. The company is working to improve the ratings of its products and to increase advertising, marketing and distribution activity.
Hunter Hall Int. reported NPAT of $12.34m for the year ended 30 June 2011. Revenue from ordinary activities were $41.9m. Diluted EPS was 45.55 cents compared to nil cents last year. The final dividend declared was 21.1 cents, taking the full year dividend to 44.9 cents compared with nil cents last year.
Handing over, what if you need someone else to make decisions for you? There are times in your life when you can't fulfil your financial obligations personally.

What a Coincidence!
There are quite a few children's authors who celebrate their birthdays in May. I was planning on doing a post on all of them, but then as I was going through the list I realized that six of them had won the Newbery Medal and four more were Newbery Honor winners! So if you would like to see a complete list of May birthdays, check out the link above, but here, instead, is a list of all of the Newbery Award winning authors who were born in May. Do you share a birthday with a famous author?
Newbery Medal Winners                     Newbery Honor Winners
Patricia MacLachlan (May 3rd)                      Mavis Jukes (May 3rd)

Happy Birthday Ludwig Bemelmans!
"In a old house in Paris
that was covered in vines,
lived twelve little girls
in two straight lines...
        the smallest one was Madeline."         Â
April 27th is the 109th birthday of Ludwig Bemelmans, author of the Madeline books! Ludwig Bemelmans was born in 1898 in the Austrian Tyrol and came to the United States in 1914. He wrote six books about Madeline, all of which are available through the Olathe Public Library.
National High Five Day - April 19th
In honor of National High Five Day, and in continued celebration of Young People's Poetry Week, I offer two haikus about high fives.
I have five fingers.
Two hands together make ten.
It should be high ten.
"High five!" I call out -
Our hands collide in mid-air.
Ouch! That was painful!
Celebrate National High Five Day by giving your local librarian a high five! Or submit a haiku of your own in the comment box. They're easy to write. The first line should have 5 syllables, the second line should have 7 syllables, and the last line should have 5 syllables.
Bridge to Terabithia
Another classic children's book has hit the big screen. Katherine Paterson's Bridge to Terabithia is now playing at a theater near you. The Newbery award-winning novel spins a tale of friendship, imagination, and tragedy. And don't be deceived! There is much more to this moving story than the movie previews you've seen on TV may suggest. Have you seen it? What did you think?
Other children's books being made into movies and currently in production include:
Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett
Coraline by Neil Gaiman
Duck for President by Doreen Cronin
Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl

Mini Review of Canon EOS 60D and Olympus E-5
by John Rettie
The 18-megapixel Canon EOS 60D replaces the 50D in Canon's lineup, slotting between the T3i and the 7D.
July 01, 2011 — Soon after I wrote my crystal ball gazing on the state of the industry in last month's column, a friend told me he had purchased a Nikon D7000 because he could no longer "wait for the D800." No, unless Nikon has announced it between writing this column and you reading it, there is no D800, or whatever it may be named coming soon. However, it is the logical name for the next generation D700 model. Other than reading the rumors and making logical guesses as to what it might be, I am not any closer to knowing what the camera specs might be than you are.

Government Application
Government Application
Agencies at the federal, state, and local level are reeling from the impact of Big Data—everything from documents and narrative reports to emails, blogs and text messages. uReveal is a revolutionary software that can harmonize and fuse data from all these disparate sources empowering users to apply their expertise in identifying critical information.
View uReveal applications for:
Behavior Analytics
uReveal Government
Applications For:
Behavior Analytics
uReveal has revolutionized behavior analytics by enabling analysts to identify suspicious or criminal behavior in all forms of e-data. Until now, behavior analytics has focused on uncovering patterns within structured fields. However, today's growing flood of "Big Data" is mainly unstructured, such as text embedded within documents, reports, emails, blogs and text messages.
uReveal's patented technology can harmonize both structured and unstructured data, allowing the user to work directly with data in its natural state. Our groundbreaking software also enables analysts to use their expertise to create Concept Systems built around ideas and behaviors that may be associated with a crime or misconduct.
These Concept Systems automatically track trends, patterns, and correlations that might otherwise remain hidden. Law enforcement and security teams save time and money by largely eliminating data manipulation and duplication, which frees staff to work more productively. They obtain better results by zeroing in more quickly on critical data, and they benefit from greater collaboration because analysts can share concept banks without having to share sensitive underlying data. As a result, subject matter expertise is retained and evolves, even if the original users leave a company's employ.
New Cases Uncovered by uReveal Lead Jacksonville Police to Serial Rapist
With a serial rapist on the loose and few clues to go by, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Once turned to uReveal's behavior analytics for its groundbreaking ability to detect and connect suspicious patterns.
Business Problem
Investigators and analysts in the Jacksonville Sheriff's Once are buried in police reports generated from over one million calls and 200,000 criminal incidents per year. These reports range from one to fifty pages.
As a result, investigators and analysts used to spend too much time reading through police reports rather than analyzing pertinent data or pursuing leads in the field. If investigators happen to detect behavior patterns, they are hampered by structured fields that either don't include the terms and descriptions or define them in broad categories that aren't effective.
The Jacksonville Police needed a way to quickly identify and extract relevant information from vast volumes of text, with the added difficulty that related Concepts might be expressed using different terms and spellings. Otherwise, investigators could spot the trends and make the connections necessary to solve the case.
The uReveal Solution
The investigators noticed a few common threads of behavior: the rape victims were known prostitutes, they were struck on the head and taken to vacant buildings, and the rapist used a box-cutter style knife. None of these details or behaviors were discernible in any of the categories or fields of their various databases.
Clearly, all the critical information would have to come from narrative text. The Jacksonville Sheriff's Once had recently invested in uReveal and now needed its ability to harmonize disparate data and identify patterns of behavior.
Not only were there many thousands of narrative reports to search, but several different types—from "information reports" to "crime reports" to "calls for service." Each type of report was written a distinctive way that didn't allow for easy cross-referencing for key information using structured databases.
uReveal solved that problem by enabling analysts to use their expertise to create and share "concept banks," collections of behaviors, items, ideas, terms, and phrases that their own expertise and tells them would correlate with the rapist's methods and behavior. These allowed for otherwise hidden connections to be revealed. "Box-cutter," for instance, was linked to other possible descriptions and spellings because they included things like "utility knife" and "knife for cutting boxes."
The concept banks quickly identified new cases, nearly all of which involved behaviors that suggested the same serial offender. One new case offered up a critical fact: the victim had noticed a tattoo on one of the assailant's hands. Investigators used this detail to search prison records and eventually zeroed in on the serial rapist himself. He is behind bars today in Jacksonville.
uReveal has enabled analysts and investigators in the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office to rapidly uncover patterns, trends, and associations in all forms of data. "Before, we had officers tied up for hours reading though reports, and we'd still miss plenty of critical things," said one officer. "With uReveal, we're able to explore every bit of data and focus quickly on the most relevant information."
Fraud Detection
uReveal Government
Applications For:
Fraud Detection
Government agencies and departments must prevent or halt fraudulent behavior that can seriously harm the general public. Terrorists and drug operators often make suspicious bank transactions to hide their illegal activities. Swindlers use stolen identities benefits, while Corrupt business to claim entitlement benefits such as medical people engage in bid-rigging to claim business contracts at the expense of taxpayers. The list of illegal activities that threaten public safety or steal from the public purse is long and growing.
Adding to the burden on government is the fact that evidence of these crimes can be found in every kind of data, from structured databases to unstructured "textual" data embedded in documents, reports, emails, and more. The large volume and multiple forms of this data make it overwhelmingly difficult for government analysts to sift through it all manually and identify the most pertinent information.
uReveal provides a solution in two fundamental ways. First, uReveal's patented software can harmonize and fuse unstructured data of every sort. Second, this groundbreaking technology enables the user to probe the data for critical information through "Concept Systems"—combinations of terms, and ideas, phrases created by the expert analyst. These Concepts, which can be combined into Concept "banks," uncover otherwise hidden trends, patterns, and relationships.
Through its capabilities across all data, including behavior and text analytics, uReveal helps identify fraud with a speed and flexibility never before possible. The result is timely insight and intervention, which can be the key to protecting the public from greater harm.
The High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Program (HIDTA)
By automating the analysis of Financial Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs), uReveal helps the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy detect financial fraud and confiscate criminal funds.
Business Problem
The High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA) programs, under the White House Drug Czar, are tasked with enhancing and coordinating drug control efforts among local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. In Northern Virginia, part of the Washington-Baltimore HIDTA, a team of about 20 investigators drawn from local and federal agencies, the FBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, and the Internal Revenue Service gathered once a month to manually review thousands of SARs. Almost all the detail related to the evidence of drug-related financial fraud—including money laundering, structuring, and potential terrorist behavioral detail—was embedded in unstructured text, adding to the difficulties facing the investigative team. Not surprisingly their analysis was time consuming to conduct, often incomplete, and their results inconsistent.
The uReveal Solution
uReveal's software has been able to harmonize and fuse the all the data, including the narrative in the SARs, and capture the sophisticated behaviors that signal drug trafficking and terrorist financing. The software both identifies and prioritizes the SARs with the greatest potential for investigative success. And by automating the process, uReveal has cut the man hours devoted to reviewing the SARs from 80 hours per month to just one hour. Less time and fewer resources, such as extensive IT support, are required to get more consistent and thorough results.
According to HIDTA Director Thomas Carr, "Our teams can now focus on field investigations rather than reading documents. And by leading to the confiscation of criminal funds, uReveal paid for itself almost immediately."
Future Opportunities
HIDTA is now busy expanding its use of uReveal, applying its power to gang activities and credit card fraud.
Regulatory Compliance
uReveal Government
Applications For:
Regulatory Compliance
Public agencies and departments, like their private sector counterparts, face a growing burden of complex laws and regulations. To prove compliance, the agencies often have to quickly and thoroughly comb through their eData—an increasingly impossible task for staff who manually review the data.
The cost of failing to comply—or prove compliance—with laws and regulations can be steep, such as large fines, cuts in funding, or loss of accreditation. With so much intricate data to pore through, much of it in the form of unstructured text, public agencies need a way to quickly identify precise and relevant information.
uReveal provides that capability, with revolutionary text analytics that harmonizes and fuses data from disparate sources, including documents, reports, and emails. The users can then leverage their expertise by creating relevant "concept systems"—syntax representing ideas and thoughts—that are then used by the uReveal software to extract truly pertinent information. The huge benefit provided by uReveal's groundbreaking technology is that far fewer people can spend far less time producing more complete and accurate results. Moreover, the expertise then resides in concept systems that can be shared with others without having to pass along any sensitive underlying data.
With so much riding on regulatory and legal compliance, the margins of error have grown extremely thin. uReveal can do much to prevent costly mistakes and oversights.
regulatory compliance CASE STUDY
regulatory compliance CASE STUDY
Law Enforcement Accreditation
The Arlington, Texas Police Department needed to meet national accreditation requirements in a more timely, efficient, and effective way. It found the answer in uReveal's text analytics.
Business Problem
One way that police departments maintain legitimacy in the eyes of the public is by meeting a nationally recognized set of professional standards. These standards are administered by the Commission on Accreditation of Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). Public safety agencies need to get re-accredited every three years, and a failure to do so would be a public relations nightmare, to say the least.
CALEA requires clear examples of compliance with standards, covering topics such as weapon deployment, evidence handling, and arrests. The Arlington, Texas Police Department, like so many others, tended to rush through the process toward the end of every cycle. While the Arlington Police has been re-accredited every three years since 1989, they knew their CALEA reporting could be better focused and more internally consistent. It was a bothersome task for department lieutenants to read through such extensive documentation in order to pinpoint police action that met CALEA's standards. Further complicating matters, required material could be stored in several disparate areas. What they would pass along to the Department's accreditation manager was the best they could find with limited time and attention and often failed to comply with the standards.
The uReveal Solution
A crime analyst who saw the problem the Arlington Police's accreditation manager was having realized the potential in using uReveal's text analytics. Instead of relying on selections passed on to her by over-worked colleagues, she could have control over the search for examples herself.
She set up an account and began developing syntax that the uReveal software would read as concepts reflecting a specific police action. For instance, before uReveal, it was difficult for her to find examples for CALEA of "deployment but not activation of the taser." It was much easier after she studied the initial reports identified by uReveal and discovered the various ways that officers crafted their incident reports.
The Accreditation Manager loved the uReveal solution from the start. She found the software easy to use and extremely efficient, as her tailored concepts resulted in multiple options arranged by date. By providing her with numerous relevant cases, she was able to select the absolute best examples to present to CALEA. It took less staff time to produce better results, a benefit that has convinced her to use uReveal for CALEA compliance on an ongoing basis. And since she doesn't have to wait for fellow officers to provide compliance examples, she can compile evidence herself throughout the three year accreditation cycle. No longer is the reporting undermined by a last minute scramble to pull together all the documentation.

Venting here but if you have a suggestion
I bought an old house that needed a lot of work - I tore out a wall, gutted the kitchen and pretty much everything, and designed my kitchen layout myself, but took it to the KD at my local cabinet/tile store for her to fix and finish and get the cabinets. She was very careful with the spacers needed in the corners I thought, but now that all of my appliances are in, I can't access three drawers next to the dishwasher unless I open the dishwasher all the way! I never got a copy of her master plan - I'm sure I can get one, but before I go bat-s-crazy on her - is it possible I bought some crazy Maytag dishwasher that sticks out further than any other dishwasher in the universe?
I seriously just want to cry right now and have to wait until tomorrow to call and scream at someone.
Can you post a pic? I'm sure that will help someone that knows this stuff answer you.
So sorry to hear things aren't going as planned. I would definitely make sure things were ordered as specified and make sure the final plan matches your measurements. I had a friend with a similar problem, she had done all the design herself and built in the needed clearance for her DW, but the counter guy measured the peninsula wrong so the installer decided not to install the corner spacer. She had to nudge things this way and that to get the door to open because they messed up her planned spacing.
A standard DW without a handle should not stick out at all. It should be flush with the adjacent cabinets. Yours may be installed improperly. If you bought a fully integrated DW with a handle that protrudes, you should have given her the specs (along with all of the other appliances) to be sure that the proper spacing was accomplished.
Pics of course, would clarify the situation.
I will post a close-up picture tomorrow - I was cleaning up and leaving when I noticed it tonight and I got so upset, I just had to get out of there before I destroyed something in a fit. I am nearing the end of the remodel and am slowly moving my stuff in while living down the street at my mother's house so at the very least, I am not there staring at it all night long plotting revenge against someone. [insert sarcastic smiley] The DW is one of those with the controls on the top - and I thought (not even considering stick-out length) that the controls would always be hidden until you opened it to press the buttons but it IS installed so that you can always see the buttons. IF that is the problem, that will solve the bottom two drawers' problem but will not solve the top drawer problem even if recessed a bit. My current contractor is not the guy who installed the cabs and isn't the guy I started with - that guy quit after I apparently made him cry when he found my construction blog.
I realize this isn't a close-up picture but it is the best I can do at this hour.
The whole blog can be found at the link below if you are so inclined. And let me add that these forums have been BEYOND helpful to me during this entire process and even though I have been silent - all of you who post and help are just plain awesome!
Here is a link that might be useful: Construction Blog
Yup, the DW isn't pushed back far enough.
Also though, for a DW with a handle, you need additional clearance/fillers at the corner on the fridge run. Did you tell the KD which model of DW you were using and provide her with the specs? Perhaps pushing the DW back where it belongs will correct that issue as well.
Even from a distance, that dishwasher does not look like its installed correctly. It should be flush with the sink cabinet. You may be correct though in saying that the handle would still interfere with the top drawer. There are fully integrated dishwashers with recessed handles. Perhaps you could exchange your dishwasher for one of those.
Here is a picture of a dishwasher that I had ( but in white) in my previous kitchen. It is a Bosch 500 series. The recessed handle is a nice feature.
I had no appliances when we did the kitchen and it was one of those things where I kept asking if I needed to order the appliances now and she said, no, I'll just use standard sizes. My last house should have been redone but I didn't have the means then and now I just have had no idea what I'm doing. If I have to get one with recessed handles, so be it, but I think that company will be paying for it. My plan is to get my contractor to meet me there tomorrow to look at everything.
Thank you all so much for your input - very informative! I don't know how this has happened - my first contractor that thought he was smarter than everyone else on the planet complained about my design because he said I had too many spacers - but the ones around the stove corner have worked out well - everything opens/shuts. The DW corner - there is a spacer so that the DW will open and not hit the drawer pulls - I think "we" meaning the KD just forgot that the drawers would have to open, too.
I'm sure this is partly my fault, too, for not submitting my plans at this site because one of you would have caught the problem! :) (I have loved studying the kitchen plans here, too)
Hope you get it sorted out. Just wanted to say what a project! It's looking awesome. These little glitches are SO irritating, but you've done such a great job on that house! So congrats on that, sorry for the frustration today, hope you get it all worked out soon. ((hugs))
Looking at your blog, I was quite taken with your backsplash. As I was admiring it, it suddenly occurred to me that it's the same tile we used on our fireplace, just in a smaller version and configuration! Great minds...
You made your contractor cry? It's hard to know whether to frown disapprovingly or offer you a high-5 ;-)
Suzannesl - I ordered the same tile for my fireplace, too, but in a different pattern! Just haven't gotten that put up yet. And I didn't really mean to make the first guy cry, but he would make decisions on things like where to put light fixtures without checking with me first, then a local website that tells us what's going on in town, etc., found my blog and featured it in her daily webcast and the contractor saw it and got mad when he saw that I was complaining about the same things on the web that I did to his face and got all upset. But then just quit without finishing anything.
My new contractor came to meet me today to go over things. He checked out the DW - maybe it's the model I have but he says based on the rubber ring around it, we could recess it approximately 1/4 inch more to 1/2 inch more, but the space needed for the bottom two cabs to open is at least an inch if not more. We did not use a measuring tape and he is not responsible for anything but the install of the DW (well, in this instance that's all he is responsible for - he's done a great job on finishing up the rest of the house) so he really doesn't have a dog in this fight. He said he will get the guys back to see about recessing it more, but that they installed it at that particular spot since that is where they needed to screw it in.
I don't know exactly 100% what he means but he doesn't really just BS me so I'm trusting what he's saying. He did say that possibly a different DW made for a panel front would be shallower but that the spacer in the corner should have been a 3" not a 1" - even that wouldn't help with the top drawer and the DW handle but I will take responsibility for that big handle since that can be solved with a different DW front.
I called the KD who pulled up my plan and says she had a 3" spacer there so why didn't the installer that she referred me use it (he's an independent contractor that they use all the time). but then she said a 1" would be enough if the DW were installed properly so it's everyone else's fault. She is going to come see for herself tomorrow what is going on.
Current contractor says his answer would be to pull out the 21" drawer cab, replace with either shelves/door (which still wouldn't open all the way) or even 18" drawer cab with 3" spacer and that can be done without damaging my Caesarstone.
I will see what the KD says when we meet.

INDIANAPOLIS -- A pastor says a sign in front of his Indianapolis church with images of a lynching and slaves in chains is meant to remind people of the importance of their voting rights.
One side of the sign outside Greater St. Mark Missionary Baptist Church features a photo of the 1930 lynching of two black men in Marion, Ind. Below it is written: "Is this a reason to vote?"

Rev. Joy Thorton, who is black, tells WRTV that he believes the black community has become complacent about the price that was paid for the right to vote and that he's heard few complaints.
Ronnie Judd of Greenwood tells The Indianapolis Star he took the sign as a message that lynchings could return if blacks don't vote for President Barack Obama.

Don't really see this big deal with this, and don't really see it being greedy when they're charging for a service they provide.
It's an estimate from the electricity based on their previous usages.
Posted 25 November 2012 - 01:27
In some cases, there's no meter left to read.
Posted 25 November 2012 - 04:53
Oh give it up. There's no way you could possibly defend this stupidity. Is it greed? Probably not, more an error if anything. But it's still stupid. Don't pretend like it's not. It's not like nobody knows about Sandy and or what it's done.
Posted 25 November 2012 - 05:05
As I said it's an estimate based on the previous usage of the household. How do the electricity companies know if each individual house is receiving electricity and using how much?
Until they get an actual meter reading they give out an estimate. It's really not a big deal.
Posted 25 November 2012 - 05:12
I think the power company is simply greedy.

'Rising Star': Josh Groban Explains Delayed West Coast Airing, Demonstrates App (Video)
"They're not having to wait until a results show … they're basically watching with an app in their hand," said the host and expert panelist on Thursday.
Before the Rising Star wall rises later this month, Josh Groban stopped by Good Morning America to explain his twofold role on the show.
"It's so much fun for me because I spent so much time in front of my own mic and singing my own songs, so to have the chance to mentor young singers and to work with them, and to guide them through this very hair-raising process -- and also, to be on live television, to be able to carry a show like this -- is a new challenge for me and something I'm looking forward to," he said.
STORY 'Rising Star' Producers Consulted Mathematicians Over Time Zone Dilemma
Groban explained that the show is based on a "revolutionary technology for live television" with a free app that allows viewers to easily vote on performers in real time, with instant results that air simultaneously with the performance. "As they watch the singers on the TV show, they're not having to wait until a results show, they don't have to call in or text in -- they're basically watching with an app in their hand," he explained. "America's the judge as to whether or not this wall will go up and the performer will go through."
Groban joins a panel of experts, which also includes Ludacris, Kesha and Brad Paisley. "Between the four of us, you've got every genre," he said, adding that each of the experts will cast votes that are worth 7 percent.
One of the concerns of producing a live singing competition is its inherent need to delay the West Coast airing. Groban explained that the show will air live in the majority of the country and be taped for West Coast viewers. "The West Coast vote is going to matter -- if somebody didn't get by with the East Coast vote alone, the West Coast vote could bump [them] over the edge," Groban explained, then demonstrating the app onscreen with Robin Roberts (with a few flubs).
Rising Star premieres on June 22.

New Balance 574 "Botanical Garden" by Zack Schlemmer 0 Comments
these are nice.
May 5, 2013 BY Aaron Hope / 1
While a mid-April debut for a new 'Windbreaker' edition suggests that we're not fully done with the 'Yacht Club Pack', these latest New Balance 574s do indeed indicate a shifting tide. Switching from an overt theme to a template that puts all the focus on colors and materials, the NB574 'CVF Pack' comes off as a suede-saddled follow-up to the 'Backpack' collection that set the stage for all this 574 packing. Click through to see one in each primary color of light and stick with Sneaker News because they'll likely arrive at US retailers soon and we'll keep you posted.
