Questions & Answers
Hello tanishasebastian, This chalk set has received excellent reviews! You may use this chalk on a chalk board however, it may not erase as easily as regular white chalk. Also, it is not shaped in a way to write easily with it. You would need to apply it with a brush or sponge. I hope this information helps. Thanks for shopping with us.

Motorcycle Helmet Fact Sheet
When motorcycles were first built in 1885, there was little need to worry about helmets, as the top speed was low. As time went on and people found a need for speed on motorcycles, the accident fatalities began to climb. In 1953, Professor Charles F. Lombard patented a helmet designed for absorbing energy with padding to protect against impacts. Since then, there has been much debate regarding safety regulations and helmet laws. The designs for motorcycle helmets have also been changing constantly. They come in many shapes, sizes, colors and designs. One thing they all have in common is that they all have to pass standard safety regulations set by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).

Royce White continues talking, believes the Houston Rockets and NBA dont want him in league
03/19/2013 at 8:01 am By Anthony Ramsey
The soap opera continues… Royce White has been in the sports media and blog spotlight for everything but his play since the Houston Rockets drafted him 16th overall last year. White has been at arms with the Rockets over treatment for his anxiety disorder (more on that later), refusing to play, threatening to retire and more recently for drama regarding multiple baby mothers. And all of this has gone on without White having played a single minute of NBA basketball.
Now, White is claiming that the NBA and Houston Rockets are conspiring against him and don't want him to play in the league, per SI:
"I went through the bumps and bruises of having to advocate for myself against a billion-dollar corporation. Other than that, I think I've actually been successful, if you look at the rate of success, or what could have went wrong. I could have easily been out of the league or blackballed or things like that. But that hasn't happened yet…
"I'm a problem because I'm not afraid to say what I think and I'm not afraid to stand alone. Even amongst the NBA community, the players, the union, the NBA office, and [commissioner] David Stern and [deputy commissioner] Adam Silver. I'm not afraid to stand alone in my own circle, and say, hey listen, you guys aren't respecting mental health…
"If I was to make an educated guess, I would guess that Adam Silver and David Stern and the Rockets organization, some other owners in the league, GMs, want me gone. And why do they want me gone? Because business is about convenience, it's not about doing what's necessary, right? It's about cutting overhead… Being efficient. And a lot of times, what's best for us as human beings doesn't meet that criteria for business people.".
Now I'm no psychologist, but let's take a quick examination of White's accusation. White is basically saying that the NBA wants him gone because he's not afraid to be a problem despite him being paid $1.6 million dollars this season to play basketball, which he had yet to do until he began a recent stint in the D-League (where he's looked extremely out of shape). Generally, in any place of employment, if you are not performing the duties you are being paid for they eventually let said employee go. That isn't anything out of the ordinary; that's LIFE.
Secondly, it's a bit hard to believe that White is a victim here. For someone that has an anxiety disorder, White sure does do a lot of talking to bring attention on himself. Maybe his aim is to raise awareness, but his quotes make is sound a lot more like self promotion. At some point a person has to look in the mirror and take some responsibility for their role in the situation they are involved in.
If the Rockets and the NBA do indeed want White gone, I honestly couldn't fault them. White has yet to produce for the job that he applied for when he entered the NBA draft, but is still receiving a paycheck nonetheless. Seems like someone is working the system a bit here, no?

Good Morning,
As stupid as my question might sound, i have spent the last 2 weeks reading oop books; but could use some guidance.
I have a flash project that is basically a supped up slide show. On the stage i have the following:
main_mc (instance name = images_mc) = movieclip which holds "pictures"
ui1 (instance name = ui1_mc) = user interface that allows user to draw on picture (when drawing is enabled)
ui2 (instance name = ui2_mc) = activates invisible hit areas (buttons) on select pics, when hit area is clicked, we jump to another pic in the main_mc.
I accomplished all of this on the timeline, but am updating the code to OOP.
I am having A HELL OF A TIME trying to figure out how to store references to the instances (images_mc etc..), so i can control them from varying class files. I have found it is easy to control the instances from the documentclass, but not from unrelated class files.
Example: images_mc.stop(); works in document class; but Movieclip(Parent).images_mc.stop() doesn't seem to work from any class file.(ui2 class file for example);
Should i create a class called References, and pass the variables to other unrelated class files that way (could i see an example)? Basically what is the best practice in this situation? I don't want to add the instances to the stage via code, because everything is positioned perfectly as is. Honestly I don't foresee the need to add anything to the stage programically during this project, so having references to the already existing instances is very important. I want to accomplish this task the "right way", any help would be greatly appreciated.

Growing flowering dogwood trees
jazzygardener(z4 MN)April 24, 2009
I was planning on planting a red or pink flowering dogwood tree this year. However, my local nursery said that these aren't hardy in MN. They're sold in other nurseries and through the arbor society. I'd like to hear from someone else who has grown one. Did it survive?
leftwood(z4a MN)
Many have tried, a few have succeeded (temporarily), and almost none have ever had more than a few blooms. Some literature says zone 4 hardy, but that is New England zone 4, not MN. For dogwood trees, that makes a big difference.
Experimenting is always a fun and worthy endeavor. You just may be the one to stumble on the perfect genetics, but don't expect it.

Among the Bryant High School seniors receiving their diplomas tonight will be a young man who pursued his dream and next fall will join the drum line of the Arkansas Razorbacks Marching Band.
Payne Roberts, defying the advice of well-meaning family members, auditioned to play snare drums with the prestigious band on April 28 and was among the 10 chosen for the drum line.
Interestingly, Payne isn't an experienced musician as are most selected for college band membership. Indeed, he didn't pursue this interest until his sophomore year of high school.

Most of you women won't admit you are insecure about your husbands being friends with females and its really sad.
by i_am_no_1August 14, 2013 at 10:44 PM
I don't quite know. My dh just says he doesn't really like to deal with women because they're all bitches, lol.
I make friends with men much easier, personally.
by KerannmerAugust 14, 2013 at 10:48 PM
I think it's fine to be friends with a married man. I have lots of married man-friends, and my husband has married-women friends. We also have single friends of the opposite sex. But...it's an issue when said friend starts confiding in you about wanting to leave his wife, he doesn't love her, etc...it's time to remind him of the boundries or back away.
by jenerica.August 14, 2013 at 10:54 PM
I get it. Sometimes women are bitches. One of my hubby's best friends is a woman. They have been friends for over 20 years. And even after all these years, she STILL makes comments like she knows him better than I do. She STILL says shit about his preferences, like big boobs and that kind of shit, when I have A's. It can be infuriating. SOME women can't take that kind of shit from their hubby's girl-friends. Lucky for my husband, I'm not SOME women. :) But like I said, I get it....even though I choose to overlook it.
by Anonymous 1 - Original PosterAugust 14, 2013 at 11:09 PMI see that side. But I've had my male friend come to me for advice about his girlfriend because he didn't know what to do. I simply told him you can either choose to work things out and overlook the negative or you can choose to leave. Personally I would rather my so to talk to a female friend then some random female.
Quoting Kerannmer:

I think it's a slippery slope.
by DanaG70August 14, 2013 at 11:12 PM
I don't know, my husband has quite a few female friends, single and married. I don't bat an eye.
by Anonymous 3August 15, 2013 at 12:28 AMBecause he has ME to confide in. Once u open ur heart to the opposite sex and it isn't u spouse, trouble can find its way in. I'm the only women he confides in, laughs with, thinks about, calls. Me and only me. If he did that with someone else yes, he could be swayed to have a relationship with her, emotionally or physically. A risk I wont LET him take . I have no guy friends and he has no women friends. Period, the end, that's all!
by Apollos82August 15, 2013 at 12:30 AMI don't think the friendships are wrong, but often the boundaries or parameters are not appropriate so as to be respectful of the spouse and the marriage. People don't have good, healthy boundaries these days...
by Anonymous 4August 15, 2013 at 12:32 AMI was willing to sacrifice friendships with the opposite sex for my husband and I don't regret it. If your best friend thought a friendship with the opposite sex would cause strain on his marriage, he would not hesitate to drop you. He didn't make vows to you but he did to her
by LiesLiesLiesAugust 15, 2013 at 12:34 AMInsecurity on my part? No.
I just think it opens way too many doors. I have been hit on and far worse by married "friends". I just don't want to put myself in that situation anymore...because no matter what *I* will be the bad guy. It's easier for women to accept it that way.
Can they be Facebook friends? Couple friends? Get together as group friends? Sure. Can they be private dinners, movies, frequent texting friends? No. Not in my opinion.

Antibodies from the desert act as guides to disease cellsJune 13, 2014 8:19 am | News | Comments
Researchers have developed nanoparticles that not only bypass the body's defence system, but also find their way to the diseased cells. The procedure uses fragments from a particular type of antibody that only occurs in camels and llamas. The small particles were even successful under conditions which are very similar to the situation within potential patients' bodies.
Increase in use of costly insulin analogs in type 2 diabetesJune 11, 2014 9:25 am | by Helen Dodson, Yale Univ. | News | Comments
There has been a dramatic increase in use of costly insulin analogs by type 2 diabetes patients, despite the lack of evidence that they are appreciably better than human synthetic insulin, according to Yale School of Medicine researchers. Further, overall insulin use by patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) increased by 50% in the previous decade.
New molecule enables quick drug monitoringJune 9, 2014 10:07 am | Videos | Comments
Scientists in Switzerland have invented a molecule that can easily and quickly show how much drug is in a patient's system. All that is needed to perform accurate measurements is a conventional digital camera. The result of innovative protein engineering and organic chemistry, the molecule has been shown to work on a range of common drugs for cancer, epilepsy and immunosuppression.
Rural clinics increasingly turn to telemedicineJune 6, 2014 9:58 am | by Regina Garcia Cano, Associated Press | News | Comments
In 2010, telemedicine was used to guide the insertion of a chest tube in a 72-year-old South Dakota farmer who had been pinned by a cow. Physicians in Sioux Falls talked am inexperienced doctor through the steps to stop the bleeding and drain the blood collecting inside the man. It's a system that's gaining wider use across the rural U.S., where there are often few primary care doctors and even fewer emergency rooms.
Engineers develop mobile DNA test for HIVJune 6, 2014 7:31 am | by Mike Williams, Rice Univ. | News | Comments
Rice Univ. bioengineers are developing a simple, highly accurate test to detect signs of HIV and its progress in patients in resource-poor settings. The current gold standard to diagnose HIV in infants and to monitor viral load depends on laboratory equipment and technical expertise generally available only in clinics. The new research features a nucleic acid-based test that can be performed at the site of care.
New solution prevents infection in implantsJune 5, 2014 9:08 am | News | Comments
Hospital germs can be fatal, since they are resistant to antibiotics. As a result, alternative methods of defense against bacteria are in demand. Fortunately, a German-French research team has been able to develop bone implants that keep the germs at bay. The solutions depends on a breakthrough that allows scientists to imbue apatite crystals with calcium phosphate.
Tech Aids Cancer ResearchJune 4, 2014 2:32 pm | by Lindsay Hock, Managing Editor | Thermo Fisher Scientific | Articles | Comments
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. The disease can be caused by both external and internal factors; and, if the spread isn't controlled, it can result in death. The annual cancer statistics report from the American Cancer Society estimates there will be 1,885,540 new cancer cases and 585,720 cancer deaths in the U.S. for 2014.
Lasers and night-vision technology help improve imaging of hidden lymphatic systemJune 3, 2014 11:14 am | News | Comments
The human lymphatic system is a poorly understood circulatory system consisting of tiny vessels spread throughout the body. These vessels are filled with lymph, a clear liquid that lacks the natural contrast needed to show up on CT scanners or MRIs. A new technology developed in Texas can non-invasively image the human lymphatic system using a fluorescent dye, commercial laser dioded, and military-grade night vision devices.
Prototype electrolyte sensor provides immediate read-outsJune 3, 2014 8:03 am | by Neal Singer, Sandia National Laboratories | News | Comments
Patients trying to navigate today's complex medical system with its costly laboratory analyses might prefer a pain-free home diagnostic device, worn on the wrist, that can analyze, continuously record and immediately remedy low electrolyte levels. Runners, athletes in other strenuous sports and soldiers on long missions also might prefer immediate knowledge of their electrolytic states as an aid to improved performance.
Joint implants without an expiration dateJune 2, 2014 9:02 am | News | Comments
Artificial joints have a limited lifespan. After a few years, many hip and knee joints have to be replaced. More problematic are intervertebral disc implants, which cannot easily be replaced after they "expire" and are usually reinforced, which restrict a patient's movement. Researchers in Switzlernad have now succeeded in coating mobile intervertebral disc implants so that they show no wear and will now last for a lifetime.
Neural transplant reduces absence epilepsy seizures in miceJune 2, 2014 8:24 am | by Tracey Peake, North Carolina State Univ. | News | Comments
New research from North Carolina State Univ. pinpoints the areas of the cerebral cortex that are affected in mice with absence epilepsy and shows that transplanting embryonic neural cells into these areas can alleviate symptoms of the disease by reducing seizure activity. The work may help identify the areas of the human brain affected in absence epilepsy and lead to new therapies for sufferers.
"Quadrapeutics" works in preclinical study of hard-to-treat tumorsJune 2, 2014 7:52 am | Videos | Comments
The first preclinical study of a new Rice Univ.-developed anticancer technology found that a novel combination of existing clinical treatments can instantaneously detect and kill only cancer cells without harming surrounding normal organs. The research reports that Rice's "quadrapeutics" technology was 17 times more efficient than conventional chemoradiation therapy against aggressive, drug-resistant head and neck tumors.
Gold nanoparticles unlock genetic profilesMay 30, 2014 8:47 am | News | Comments
A fast and cost-effective genetic test to determine the correct dosage of blood thinning drugs for the treatment of stroke, heart problems and deep vein thrombosis has been developed by researchers in Singapore. The new test, which uses gold nanoparticles mixed with DNA samples in solution, can quickly recognize three of the most common genetic variations associated with warfarin response.
Coating stents with vitamin C could reduce clotting risksMay 29, 2014 11:18 am | News | Comments
Every year, more than 1 million people in the U.S. have little mesh tubes called stents inserted into their blood vessels to prop them open. The procedure has saved many lives, but it still has potentially deadly downsides. Now scientists are reporting that coating stents with vitamin C could lower the implants' risks even further.
HIV can cut and paste in the human genomeMay 28, 2014 8:31 am | by Kirsten Olesen, Aarhus University | News | Comments
A new technology developed in Denmark uses the HIV virus as a tool in the fight against hereditary diseases and, in the long term, against HIV infection as well. The technology repairs the genome in a new and safer manner by using the virus as nanoparticles to manage the "cut and paste" approach to modifying the genome.
Researcher reboots deep brain stimulationMay 28, 2014 7:53 am | News | Comments

Researchers introduce precision-guided epidurals, better blood monitorsMay 27, 2014 3:19 pm | News | Comments
Scientists have recently combined optical coherence tomography (OCT) with other instruments to help doctors provide safer, less painful, and more effective care for women in labor and people with diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. Their work, to be showcased at CLEO in San Jose, Calif., in June 2014, will enable precision-guided epidural needles and blood flow measurements without contrast agents.
X-ray dark-field radiography provides detailed imaging of lung diseasesMay 27, 2014 12:17 pm | News | Comments
Conventional radiographic procedures generate images based on the absorption of x-rays as they pass through tissue. Newly developed x-ray dark-field radiography uses new technology to monitor wave changes during tissue transmission to create higher resolution images. Researchers in Germany have recently tested this technique for the first time on a living organism and report that the method shows promise in detecting diseases earlier.
Doctors design mini dialysis machine for babiesMay 23, 2014 12:41 pm | by Maria Cheng, AP Medical Writer | News | Comments
Doctors in Italy have designed a miniature dialysis machine for babies, used for the first time last year to save a newborn girl. Usually, doctors adapt standard dialysis machines for babies, but that can be risky since the devices can't always be accurately tweaked. About 1 to 2% of hospitalized infants have kidney problems that may require dialysis, which cleans toxins from the blood when the kidneys aren't working.
New "wireless" nanotechnology to help study neuronsMay 23, 2014 9:28 am | by Jim Fessenden, Univ. of Massachusetts | News | Comments

A chip-scale device that both produces and detects a specialized gas used in biomedical analysis and medical imaging has been built and demonstrated at NIST. Described in Nature Communications, the new microfluidic chip produces polarized (or magnetized) xenon gas and then detects even the faintest magnetic signals from the gas.
Engineer invents safe way to transfer energy to medical chips in the bodyMay 22, 2014 11:43 am | by Tom Abate, Stanford Engineering | Videos | Comments
A Stanford Univ. electrical engineer has invented a way to wirelessly transfer power deep inside the body, and then use this power to run tiny electronic medical gadgets such as pacemakers, nerve stimulators or new sensors and devices yet to be developed. The discoveriesculminate years of efforts to eliminate the bulky batteries and clumsy recharging systems that prevent medical devices from being more widely used.
Scrapbook-inspired diagnostics could curb hepatitis C pandemicMay 22, 2014 10:49 am | News | Comments
To the relief of patients diagnosed with hepatitis C, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved two new treatments late last year, and a few more are on the way. Now scientists are solving another side of the disease's problem: identifying the millions more who have the virus but don't know it—and unwittingly pass it on. A report in Analytical Chemistry describes a novel, scrapbook-inspired test that does just that.
Researchers combine weak chemical forces to strengthen new maging technologyMay 21, 2014 2:08 pm | News | Comments
When doctors perform an MRI, they administer a contrast agent: a chemical that, when injected into the bloodstream or ingested by the patient just before the MRI, improves the clarity of structures or organs in the resulting image. Researchers in Illinois have turned contrast agent technology "inside out" to develop a scalable new way of building multipurpose agents using nanoparticles.
Optical brain scanner goes where other brain scanners can'tMay 19, 2014 1:25 pm | by Michael C. Purdy, WUSTL | News | Comments
Scientists have advanced a brain-scanning technology that tracks what the brain is doing by shining dozens of tiny LED lights on the head. This new generation of neuroimaging compares favorably to other approaches but avoids the radiation exposure and bulky magnets the others require, according to new research at Washington Univ. School of Medicine in St. Louis.

Denver, CO, 80205
Doors 8:00 PM / Show 9:00 PM (event ends at 2:00 AM)
This event is 16 and over
Watch & Listen
Afrolicious has established itself as both one of the most legendary weekly parties in San Francisco, and of the top live/electronic bands on the scene. Started as a weekly dance party featuring DJ's and brothers Pleasuremaker and Señor Oz alongside percussionists, MC's and horn players, and an amazing crowd from day one. Over the years it has evolved as founding DJ/Producer Pleausremaker (Joe McGuire) alongside brother Señor Oz (Oz McGuire) hooked up with some of the most exciting personalities in the Bay Area music scene and started writing original music under the alias Afrolicious. Around 2010 the live Pleasuremaker band started including some of this new 'Afrolicious' material and added more of the percussionists and vocalists from the weekly party to form what is now the Afrolicious band. Between their weekly party and sound system shows that involve the brothers DJing alongside live percussion, they also have a 8-12 piece live band that emphasizes the organic elements, instrumentation, and energy of a live ensemble combined with club heavy beats and textures the weekly party has come to be known for.
Afrolicious band and sound system have performed at such legendary venues as Red Rocks, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival, Electric Forest Festival, Snow Globe, Burningman, Sea of Dreams, The Independent, Great American Music Hall, Elbo Room in San Francsico (5 plus years weekly residency), Cielo, Nublu, Bembe, Zanzibar, Silent Frisco
Afrolicious has played alongside such artists as:
Thievery Corporation, Jimmy Cliff, Fishbone, Balkan Beat Box, Rob Garza, Novalima, The Pimps of Joytime, Nickodemus, Johnny Osbourne, See-I, Ghostland Observatory, Beats Antique, J.Boogie, DJ Smash,
Afrolicious remixes and original productions can be found on labels such as ESL Music, Six Degrees Records, Akwaaba Music, Bagpak Music and more.
The Main Squeeze is a raging funk experience born within the thriving live music scene of Bloomington, Indiana, and
currently residing in Chicago, IL. Since coming together in late 2009 The Squeeze have managed to establish a unique
sound and identity in a short period of time.
The Squeeze just released their debut self titled album in June 2012. Much like each member's varied backgrounds and influences, the album itself contains an eclecti
c blend of inspiration which seamlessly navigates through funk, rock, electro, and jazz, while still rooting itself in something that's uniquely their own. Whereas 'First Drops' found the band searching for their voice in the studio, their newest offering picks up miles beyond where they left off. Just one listen to tracks like the epic "I'll Take Another" (clocking in at nearly ten minutes), the soulful trifecta of "Where Do We Go", or the impeccable horn arrangements on "Mama Told Me" and it's clear that the band possesses a musical maturity well beyond their years.
Their unique ability to tackle and funkify such a wide variety of music makes each show a unique experience in its own
right. Their live performances, which fuse soulful vocals, intricate jams, tight grooves, and ripping solos have helped them develop a dedicated and rapidly growing fan base in the Midwest and the East Coast earning them slots at music festivals such as Bonnaroo, Summer Camp, Equifunk, Big Pig, and GlowFest.
If you've ever wondered whether the juice is worth the squeeze, you should look no further
The Main Squeeze is sure to
be hitting a city near you sometime soon, leaving their crowd funkified and freshly squozen.

Built-In Cabinet/Bookshelf Design Dilemma
In the picture below you can see the fireplace framing to the left, the window to the right, and another window to a covered porch on the wall to the far right. The issue is that I would like to have built-ins to the left of the fireplace directly below the window to the right. But what to do now with that window on the right wall?
Stop the built-ins 6-12" from the right wall?
Angle the built-ins at about 12" and have them connect to that wall?
Have the built-in height "drop off" and then run much lower to the ground about half way over?
I am really pulling my hair out on this one. Let me know if you have any ideas. Any picture examples would be GREATLY appreciated!
Whateve you do to one side of the fireplace, you should consider doing on the other side, inasmuch as this appears to be a very symmetrical interior space.
If I was wed to the built-ins, I'd move, reduce or eliminate the window that's conflicting with the cabinet design.
How did design and construction get this far without noticing the conflict?
Good luck with your project.
@live_wire_oak: There are actually 2 windows that height on that side (the right side) of the room. One on each side of the door to the screened patio.
Would you recommend to replace both of them to, again, keep everything symmetrical?
Here is a view from the outside looking into that room. The problem window is on the right side of the door.

Short of reframing all the openings (using windows that are narrow enough to allow for the desired shelving and the interior window trim), there's little that can be done.
If I wanted to keep the existing windows, I'd consider a symmetrical arrangement of built-ins that contained:
1) a window seat beneath each window (with the window seat by the problem window held back far enough so that the window wall finish and window trim can be installed and finished); 2) full height narrow vertical shelving between fireplace and adjacent windows; 3) full width shelving above the window head to either the plate height of the window wall, or, alternaively, all the way to the sloping ceiling; 4) finish the top of the built-in with moulding to match other similar moulding in the house.
Remember that the built-in has to allow for the standard interior window head, jamb and sill trim pieces. Hope that makes sense.
Good luck!
What about cramming the 2 windows closer to the French door? Would that give enough space for the built-ins?
Just thinking (typing) out loud here.
That's a good observation. We noticed this as well.
I talked to the builder at length today and he feels confident we can move the 2 windows and french doors to the left with minimal spacing between the windows and doors. That should give us about 18" at least to have the built-ins.
I looked at the window and door schedule and the 2 windows are 3' wide each and the French door is 6' wide. That whole wall is about 18'. So I am hopeful that with a little reorganizing we can use the windows that we ordered.
If not we will have to purchase 2 smaller windows.
What do you plan on using that built-in for? With the current windows it seems like even if the side window wasn't there you'd be placing something directly in front of the window. To get the best use of space, I'd shorten the two windows and get rid of the one next to the French door too.
Mainly for storage. Things like board games, kids books, etc. Also will have electronics like cable box, etc. We want built-ins on both sides mainly for symmetry.
I agree though that getting rid of one of the two is an option. But I am not sure I like the asymmetrical look. It would be a whole lot less hassle though for sure.
If you have shorter windows you'll have more flexibility with the use of storage. Will there be a TV over the fireplace? If so, have you lived with that before? I have and it was number one on my "must not have" in our new build.
We're at the same stage in our build as you. Now that we're walking through the space we've also tweaked a couple of windows. One thing we recently discussd with our builder was symmetry. I am *super* into symmetry but I also try to weigh which option I will notice more on a day to day basis. In your case, will not having two windows on each side of the door bother you more than not having the built-ins you wanted? Or will you not even use those built-ins and you'll wish you didn't get rid of the window?
Not a huge fan of the TV above the fireplace but we are doing it in this room (not doing it in the formal great room or any other room for that matter in the rest of the house). Yes, we will definitely use the built-ins as we have 3 kids and they have lots of "stuff".
Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate the opinions.
For the windows next to the fireplace - how much distance will you have from the bottom of the trim to the floor? Will that be enough storage for you?
If not, you could do higher and smaller windows (as mentioned before). Kind of like the picture below but I don't think you'd need to go as high with the built-ins. That would also allow you the flexibilty to move the TV down if you found you really disliked it, and the bonus you'd have a ton of storage.

Then for the window to the right of the french door opening - if you aren't comfortable with removing one and losing the symmetry you could remove both and put sidelights and a transom around the French Doors.
Traditional Family Room design by Philadelphia Interior Designer Meadowbank Designs
Obviously there will be a cost to either or both of those changes, but that will probably be easier to swallow than moving in and hating the functionality.
Great ideas.
As mentioned we are going to try to keep both windows and the french doors. The builder feels confident that we can put the windows immediately adjacent to the french doors (kind of like "smashing them together") and shift the whole thing away from the fireplace on that wall. As I mentioned we have 12 feet total of windows+doors on that wall which is 18 feet in length. So I am hopeful that with these changes it will give us at least 18" for the built-ins before we encounter a window.
@pps7: We could move the windows up a tad but then they would be off on both the rear and left elevations from the top height of the other windows. I am not sure that it would really give us a whole lot more. I think the built-ins are going to be a good size for the room as is.
I really do appreciate everyone's opinions. Just talking through this today has saved me considerable stress and even more importantly it has likely saved me some money.
Mistakes happen. I am fortunate to have a builder that is very proactive about making it right. Even on a Sunday.
In moving your French doors and windows to the left, I would want to be careful that the French doors remain centered under the peak of the patio roof. It looks to me like the patio doors are either already centered under the peak or are too far to the right. (It's hard to tell for sure due to the angle at which the photo was taken.)
BUT, it is obvious that you have about 4 to 6 inches more space between the patio doors and the window on the right than you do between the patio doors and the window on the left. (Compare how much of the "84" is showing on either side of the patio door opening!) So even if you didn't need more space for built-ins, you would need to move the right hand window to the left by 4 to 6 inches just to get your patio wall symmetrical! Just getting that window properly positioned might give you enough room for your built-ins without moving anything else.
At first I thought "no way could you stop it short". But, after seeing this pic, you may be able to do that? It looks like they had a similar problem maybe, and this looks great.
Traditional Living Room design by Charleston Interior Designer LORRAINE G VALE, Allied ASID
Thanks for posting this. We just re-worked our family room orientation and positioning of our patio door and some windows on our house plans. Your photos helped me visualize what we are trying to achieve.
We're looking at adding a window on each side of our patio door that will be in our dining area. I like the looks of yours. Do you mind sharing the dimensions of the windows on each side of your door and those on each side of the fireplace?
@Hoosierbred: Looking at the blueprints the window schedule appears to list a 3' x 3' window and 3' x 6' window in those areas (both double hung).
I am headed to the house today (I currently live 1.5 hours away) and will try to remember to take measurements for you.
What did you end up with for built-ins? I have a similar issue with a corner and a problem window and built-ins to deal with. My window is already about where yours is now that you moved it but I still find it rather awkward. I am not a creative thinker though, LOL

The Truest Blue?
What Clematis is the truest Blue in your garden. I know that online photos and subjective descriptions can't be trusted. There is a portion of my garden that is meant to be Blues, Yellows and Whites which can hold 2 Clematis. Thank you!
Thanks Michael, I almost picked up Will Goodwin this spring but wasn't sure. I have Arabella in her 3rd year. She is threaded up through a small pillar, blooming non stop, just gaining strength to join with a yellow rose next season. That was the plan anyway, which I will still do, but the rose, Buff Beauty is more Peach and Arabella is more purple then blue in my garden. This is why I turned to those with greater experience, those beautiful photos on the nursery sites are only a suggestion. No matter, too late, I love them anyway, Arabella and Buff Beauty that is. The hopes of Blue and Yellow have been assigned to another part of the garden. I know true blue in flowers is a relative term, but is great to have an idea where to start.
Ihave lots of blue clems in my garden and some are mixed with white and yellow, so it is a nice show when that happens. The timing is critical and sometimes I hit it right on, other times not so great. However, the best blues are:
Alpina Francis Rivis
Prince Charles
Mrs. Chumley
Arabella (purple early, then blue later)
Perle d'Azur
Durandi (indigo blue)
Blue Bell and Blue Boy
