Recommend a type of light for a sink counter. Small dimensions.
My condo has an 8' ceiling.
I am rebuilding my kitchen.
Galley, i.e. two separate parallel counters.
One side will have fluorescent undercounter lights under wall cabinets 30"h.
Over these I have built an 11"h 26"d header to project onto the counter.
This header is enclosed by walls / columns.
I'm thinking of 24V transformer halogen (or Xenon) lights there.
On the other side, there will be NO upper cabinets.
That side is open, not enclosed.
8' is my ceiling height there currently and I like it.
To light up that (sink) counter, what height drywall box is the best / smallest to contain overhead lights there?
What are the smallest size lights possible?
Am I better off hanging halogens off two suspended cables instead sinking them into a header box?
This is my first question in this forum. I'm mostly in kitchens, appliances and plumbing.
I am currently considering a very small recessed light from HD. Check their small recessed lights. Lowes also has similar. But because I like even light I may go to an ultra slim GE fluorescent at HD. But I will change to bulb to a 3100k or 3500k white color (same color white as a halogen).
I did get a 3 light fixture (lights hang down and you add 3 glass shades) at a side walk sale at Lowes for $10. I might use that if my wife prefers.

Speaker Pressed to Expedite Vote on Campaign Finance
By ALISON MITCHELL
Published: May 6, 1999
WASHINGTON, May 5— Speaker J. Dennis Hastert met today with more than two dozen House Republicans who were pushing for an early vote on overhauling the nation's campaign finance laws, but he made no commitment to act earlier than the end of September.
Although majorities in both the House and Senate last year supported a bill that would ban unregulated and unlimited donations to political parties, the Republican Congressional leadership put up an array of procedural hurdles to try to stop passage of the legislation. The bill died when its supporters in the Senate fell 8 votes short of the 60 needed to cut off a filibuster and bring the bill to a vote.
With fund-raising for the 2000 Presidential and Congressional races already under way, the sponsors of the legislation want a House vote by the summer in order to put pressure on the Senate. With Republicans holding a narrow majority in the House, the small group that met with the Speaker today could force an early vote by joining with Democrats on a petition. So far they have avoided such a step, but several Republicans said they noted the possibility in their meeting today.
''We made it very clear that September is too late,'' Representative Marge Roukema, Republican of New Jersey, said after the meeting. She and others said Mr. Hastert said he would consider their request.
Asked what would happen if Mr. Hastert does not move up the timetable, Ms. Roukema said flatly, ''Then we'd have a large problem.''
Representative Christopher Shays, the Connecticut Republican who is the principle sponsor of the bipartisan bill, refused to comment. The other sponsor is Representative Martin T. Meehan, Democrat of Massachusetts.
After the session, Mr. Hastert released a statement promising a vote on campaign finance legislation by September -- which an aide said meant no later than the end of September. The Speaker also said, ''I have serious concerns about certain definitions of reform that unduly regulate free speech and that unfairly discriminate against certain political parties.''
The Republicans traditionally raise more money. They also object to the bill because of its efforts to rein in the ability of independent groups to run advertisements attacking or endorsing candidates in the period before elections. They have wanted instead to limit the ability of labor unions, a big backer of Democrats, to put large sums of money into campaign efforts.
Mr. Hastert's position has put the Republican moderates in the difficult position of deciding how far they will go in challenging their new Speaker in a year in which the narrow balance of power in the House has led Republicans to put a premium on staying united.
Democrats last month began their own effort to force the campaign finance measure to the floor by signing a special petition that can be used as a way to circumvent the House leadership. So far the Democrats have gathered 191 signatures. They need 218 to prevail and could do so if the 32 Republicans who are co-sponsors of the Shays-Meehan bill also sign.
None have so far, and they still seemed today to be looking for ways to avoid that step. Several did say they had pointed out to Mr. Hastert that they could choose to go that route. Representative Constance A. Morella, Republican of Maryland, said: ''We did not threaten him. We simply said, you know there's an awful lot of attention paid to this issue.''
Representative Zach Wamp, Republican of Tennessee, noted that Mr. Hastert had said he would take their pleas for an earlier vote into consideration and get back to them. ''He didn't rule it in,'' Mr. Wamp said. ''He didn't rule it out.'' He said the group did not give the Speaker a deadline for a decision. ''Let's not tie him down and beat him up,'' he said. ''Let's give him a few days.''
Some of the allies of the Republican backers of the overhaul legislation were growing impatient. Mr. Meehan, the bill's chief Democratic sponsor, said: ''The majority of them want to give the Speaker the benefit of the doubt. The doubt at this time is beginning to far outweigh the benefit.'' He said that if the Speaker did not budge on his timetable, Democrats could begin taking ''drastic actions'' and use parliamentary tactics to tie the House in knots.
Fred Wertheimer, president of Democracy 21, a public policy group supporting the Shay-Meehan bill, said, ''Speaker Hastert wants the moderate Republicans to be co-conspirators in killing their own campaign finance reform legislation.''
As the group of Republicans pressed today for a vote, the House subcommittee on the Constitution heard conflicting testimony on whether such legislation would violate constitutional guarantees of free speech.
In a sign of the odd coalition that has arisen in opposition to the campaign legislation, representatives from both the American Civil Liberties Union and the conservative Cato Institute spoke out against key elements of the Shays-Meehan bill.

Jobless Claims Dipped Last Week; Still In Range They've Been In All Year
By Mark Memmott
There were 361,000 first-time claims for unemployment insurance last week, the Employment and Training Administration says. That's down 6,000 from the week before (that previous week's total was revised up by 2,000).
Claims have stayed in a range between 350,000 and 400,000 all year. The unemployment rate, meanwhile, has also varied little: it's low this year has been 8.1 percent and the high has been 8.3 percent.
At best, economist Joel Naroff tells Bloomberg News, the labor market is "slowly but steadily improving." The Associated Press says claims are running at a level consistent with only "modest gains in hiring."

Michelle's been following her exploits for a while now, and to get an idea of why, you simply have to watch this Vent from July 2006 that lays out the web of conspirators plotting to blow up gas stations around Baltimore–a group that included Adam Gadahn and Ayman al Faris.
But Aafia finally turned up, in Afghanistan, where her behavior raised a few eyebrows:
Siddiqui, 36, initially was stopped by Afghan police on July 17 outside a government building. The police searched her handbag and discovered documents giving recipes for explosives and chemical weapons and describing "various landmarks in the United States, including New York City," according to a criminal complaint, which didn't identify the landmarks.
Siddiqui also was carrying "chemical substances in gel and liquid form that were sealed in bottles and glass jars," the complaint added.
The next day, as a team of FBI agents and U.S. military officers prepared to question her, Siddiqui grabbed a rifle, pointed it at an Army captain and yelled that she wanted blood, prosecutors said. An interpreter pushed the rifle aside as she fired two shots, which missed, they said. One of two shots fired by a soldier in response hit her in the torso.
Even after being hit, Siddiqui struggled and shouted in English "that she wanted to kill Americans" before the officers subdued her, the complaint said.
She's been extradited back to Manhattan, but just you watch–by the time the ACLU and the Center for Constitutional Rights get through with her, she's going to be portrayed as a hero, healing illnesses in Afghanistan like some sort of Muslim Mother Teresa.
Until then, let's just be glad she's back in custody.
MORE: See, I've always thought a 9mm lacked stopping power. Case in point:
The day after her arrest by Afghani authorities on July 17th, Siddiqui was shot twice in the torso, US officials said, when she grabbed a US soldier's M-4 Carbine and attempted to shoot another officer as a team of US soldiers and FBI agents prepared to question her. A US interpreter threw off her aim when he pushed the gun. She then was shot twice with a .9 millimeter [SIC] handgun, authorities said. According to the US Government, despite her wounds, she shouted that she "wanted to kill Americans," and struggled with her captors before they subdued her.
MORE: From the NY Times, she married the boss's nephew:
The government said that Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali, known as Ammar al-Baluchi, a nephew of Mr. [Khaled Sheikh] Mohammed's, ordered Ms. Siddiqui to help get Mr. Khan's paperwork. The statement said Mr. Baluchi and Ms. Siddiqui married shortly before his capture.

Mini OLED projector prototype for mobile phones
By Darren Quick
June 26, 2009
A new mini projector prototype could see mobile phone users hosting impromptu movie screenings on makeshift screens such as white towels or walls... without killing the battery. Unlike conventional projectors the prototype doesn't need an additional illumination system. Instead it relies on a lens system to project images produced by an OLED onto a wall or other flat surface.
Operating without an extra light source offers the dual benefits of reduced size and energy requirements. The prototype is 2.5 cm long, has a diameter of 1.8 cm and needs very little energy. This means the projector could be easily integrated into a mobile phone or PDA without overtaxing the devices' battery.
Currently the prototype's OLED display produces a monochrome image with a brightness of 10,000 candelas per square meter, and color images about half that level. By way of comparison, a computer monitor generates about 150-300 candelas per square meter.
The lenses used in the prototype are made of glass, but the development team is working on an optical system that uses plastic lenses. This is because plastic lenses can be embossed, so they can be produced in larger quantities more simply and cheaply than glass lenses.
The mini projector was developed by research scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF in Jena in cooperation with their partners in the EU project HYPOLED.Share

Very Good Car. — plenty of room for car seats etc. nice looking. very dependable, decent mileage, but not great , 21 MPG combined. v6 has lot of power. 4x4 works perfectly, automatic on slick spots, snow rain, etc. good radio system. don't like the sun glare off of the console. should be fixed.

2009 Ford Escape XLT Review
Ford Escape — The Escape is fun to try around town and on longer trips. The outside is sporty, which I love, and the inside has many little extras that make the SUV fun to drive. I love the removable buckets in the center console, the SYNC system, all of the buttons on the steering wheel, and the glass that pops open in the back. I'm getting about 22 MPG in the city which is great and the car handles very well. I love my Escape!

Very safe, easy to handle
Braking wears down very quickly
Ford Escape! — The 2009 Ford Escape Limite V6 was great on any type of road and had very easy handling even in the winter months. After some use, the breaks wore down fairly quickly. It was a very safe car with all around airbags and a higher up frame, safer on the roads. Good bass and sound system!

2009 Ford Escape XLT Review
2009 Ford Escape Xlt — The acceleration is suprisingly quick for being a four cylinder engline. Braking is great, even in the snow. Gas mileage is great, about 21 mpg in the city in the winter, can't wait to see how it is in the summer. The features are awesome. It comes with 6 months fre Sirius, moonroof, great sounding stereo and speakers, power windows, doors, and locks and much more. It's a great vehicle and fun to drive, definitely recommended.

Historical Traveler Reviews Omni Hotel at CNN Center Atlanta
Great hotel... just don't order the breakfast
stayed at the Omni CNN center in July, 2004. My room was on a high floor at the North Tower (there are two - North and South). The view was great as it overlooked Centennial park and most of the downtown skyline. The rooms are spacious and the bathroom is big enough for wheelchair access. If you're not driving, the hotel is just a few minutes by foot from the nearest MARTA rail system (that said, I don't know how well you can access the city via a rail-system considering Atlanta's mainly a "driving" kind of town). The Philips sports arena, as well as CNN's headquarters are literally connected to the hotel. Heavy Turner Broadcasting systems presence to the Omni CNN Center (just as the name indicates), but funnily enough, the hotel tv system doesn't show all the Turner networks... namely my fave - Turner Classic Movies. This, along with the parking attendants not being able to locate my rental car (as I rush to catch a flight) makes me want to think twice before booking the hotel again on future visits to Atlanta. Evidently sometimes the parking attendants don't know whether the cars are parked in the North tower garage or the South. Oh, btw, there is no self-parking in the hotel, and valet is 20 bucks/day (excluding tips). Being located in downtown Atlanta, I guess it's a safer way to handle parking, however. Apparently there is a food court in the hotel a lot of people like, but my tight schedule didn't allow me the pleasure of sampling their service... I just hope it's not as bad as the room-service breakfast I ordered.
conclusion - nice hotel. But give yourself extra time on the departure in case they can't find your car, and think twice before you order breakfast in-room.
We were only here 2 nights, but the first morning our wake up call did not come in and we were late for a meeting. When we called the operator she swore she made the call, but we received calls for the wrong rooms throughout our stay, so she must not know how to use the phone system and our wake up call went to someone else's room that morning. The room service was less than we were expecting. But the worse was the last night when a family with what sounded to be 10 teenagers checked into the room next door around 2 AM!!! The teens screamed, laughed, and slammed doors, until security had to come to tell them to quiet down. They did, but the walls were paper thin and we were awake all night due to their goofying off in the next room. Not recommended.
Great View of Centennial Park and the ATL skyline
Hotel was first class inside, from rooms to decor. We really enjoyed our sunset view of Centennial Park. I got a rate of $85 from Hotwire and I was really impressed by the room I received. Would recommend it to anyone.
Wonderful hotel
This was the finest hotel I have ever stayed in. I have never been served by such a great staff in all my years of staying in different hotels. Every person that you would encounter in the halls, elevators, frontdesk, telephone was polite, courteous and just downright friendly. The rooms were very nice, roomy and comfortable and the workout room and pool was excellent. Thank you for such a nice stay and a warm welcome to your hotel and to the city of Atlanta.
Good experience at the omni
I stayed at the Omni from March 3rd to 6th, attending a conference.
Upon arrival, I requested a room that did not overlook the atrium, and my request was cheerfully granted. The room was clean and spacious, with nice amenities and premium toiletries. The new workout room in the new North tower is excellent. Food in the restaurant was good, as were the catered meals served during the conference. Only one small complaint: housekeeping did not replenish the supply of coffee for the in-room coffee maker, so I had no coffee available one morning, but otherwise everything was great. Instead of renting a car, I used MARTA from the airport. It was inexpensive and convenient, but I would recommend that anyone doing this do so during daylight hours. I didn't try to find out what this part of Atlanta is like at night, but even during the daytime I was approached by several panhandlers, once even in the lobby of the CNN center adjacent to the hotel!
Nice stay...
Large spacious room, great views. The location is great too for all the downtown attractions.
My stay at the Omni was my worst hotel experience ever. Yes, the hotel is impressive. However, the bad far outweighed the good. Our room overlooked the atrium, an area where an event was held both nights of our stay. The noise was unbelievable. Loud music until at least midnight, followed by the sounds of what I believed to be the clean-up crew and some type of mechanical equipment. We ordered room service one night, and the tray left out by t he door was still there in the morning. The parking attendants were not particularly accommodating.
Though not the fault of the hotel, traffic was horrible and, and we had an unpleasant run-in with a police officer while trying to turn into the hotel parking garage. All that being said, my in-laws had a room across from ours which overlooked Centennial Park. They had a spectacular view of the Christmas lights, and they said they did not hear the noise from the atrium. If you go, ask not to be placed in a room overlooking the atrium.
Our first time to Atlanta this past Christmas. We had a blast! The Omni Hotel is exquisite. There is so much to do in the hotel alone, that it makes the trip seem so worth while. The CNN Center is great for adults and kids alike. I would defintiely go back if I had a chance. Very friendly staff, great rooms, great service...PERFECT location.
I Love the Omni
I stayed at the Omni in Atlanta as a get away for an evening and if I could do it every night I would. The hotel is beautiful, the staf was kind and the room was wonderful. thanks for the hom away from home experience.
I stayed at the Omni Hotel at CNN Center recently and it was just a facinating experience. The hotel is located directly inside CNN's World Headquarters which is exciting! The lobby of the CNN Center is filled with all the major fast food restaurants and stores so you never have to leave the hotel to eat or shop! Directly across the street from CNN Center is Centennial Olympic Park, that is where the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games were held. The park is beautiful and you can see it right outside the hotel windows. Not to mention you have a great view of Atlanta's spectacular skyline. The service at the hotel was great and I would definatley reccomend it to anyone wanting to visit Atlanta. The Omni Hotel at CNN Center is expanding and has almost completed a skyscraper hotel connected to the CNN Center. I want to stay in that next time I visit! If you ask me, this was one of the coolest experiences!

On the road home
Picked up the car at our friends, the Meadors. Hitting the road for Atlanta. Wow, it's been a whirlwind expedition! Feels like we've been gone for months. Can't believe how much we've seen and all the places that we've been in the last 26 days. I will certainly view so many of the places we've visited with a different set of eyes and opinions ...
Folks, We Have A Winner
... disappointed faces. I instantly met a group of 4 ladies. 2 sisters (Lisa and Monique) and their friend (Thres), all from Canada, and one Aussie (Cass). I went straight for a cold beer before boarding the boat, but I could tell they were going to be a fun clique to go to sea with for a couple of nights. Was I right as ever. I'm honored to have met all of them. We all boarded the boat and quickly became friends- along with Hattie (or Shatty...or Harriet when she's a CEO) from England. ...

PSO was Peachy
... and Sara (Jesse and Sara were the youngest, most adorable newly weds I had ever met) left, we figured we would cut through the park to get back to the hotel quicker. It was not faster in any way. We got so lost. But in a good way. We had a lovely evening strolling through the park climbing up on trees, running around on a play ground...all under a beautiful starry sky. After we found our way out of the park, me Zev and Kenzie stopped to grab some grub before ...
Looking at the world through a windshield
Day 22
Well, this is the day we drive home. It's really hard to believe it's really over. We got up and pretty much just got in the car as is. I'm out of clean clothes and the car is pretty much a big mess - nothing is really in order anymore. Our drive home really was pretty uneventful. We drove through Tupelo, Mississippi, but didn't stop anywhere. We got to Birmingham and jumped on I-20. This was really when it felt ...

Phil Miller covered three seasons of Twins baseball, but that was at a different ballpark for a different newspaper. Now Miller returns to the baseball beat after joining the Star Tribune as the Gopher football writer in 2010, and he won't miss the dingy dome for a minute. In addition to the Twins and Gophers, Miller covered the Utah Jazz and the NBA for six years at The Salt Lake Tribune.
Wow, not good. Another one-run loss for the Twins, and this time they lost Justin Morneau to another wrist injury.
Morneau's flight back to Minnesota won't land until mid-day on Tuesday, with the time change, so I'm not sure when we'll get the next update. Dr. Thomas Varecka probably will give him another MRI exam. So stay tuned.
* Manager Ron Gardenhire said Joe Mauer was available to pinch hit but would have needed a pinch-runner if he got on base. Mauer's left knee is sore from the foul tip he took late in Sunday's game, but he was warming up pitchers between innings and was on deck to pinch hit for Jamey Carroll when the game ended.
* Jared Burton appeared to tweak his groin during the eighth inning. Gardenhire and trainer Dave Pruemer went to check on him, but Burton stayed in the game, and Gardenhire later said the righthander was fine.
Burton has now made eight consecutive scoreless appearances, spanning 8 1/3 innings. Opponents are 0-for-24 with two walks and eight strikeouts off him during that stretch. Three more outs, and that's the equivalent of a no-hitter.
* Alexi Casilla had three more hits, raising his average to .300, and Danny Valencia had two hits, raising his average to .253. But Sean Burroughs is 2-for-17 (.118) on the season, and Trevor Plouffe is 4-for-33 (.121).
* Nick Blackburn tossed his first quality start of the season, meeting the minimum requirements -- six innings pitched, three earned runs allowed -- just like Jason Marquis did in Sunday's 7-4 victory over KC. As a team, the Twins have just five quality starts.
* The Twins are now 4-6 in one-run games. That's 10 of 22 games decided by one run. The first-place Indians are 6-1 in one-run games, and the Angels are 2-6. No other AL team has played more than eight.

Giant Swallowtails in Z5 Illinois?
Today I saw something interesting fly through the neighbor;s yard. It looked like a Giant Swallowtail, a bit larger than a Tiger or Spicebush, and clearly dark brown with some yellow on the wings. Has anyone seen any in the Chicago area?
I am in DuPage Co. and have only seen a giant two or three times in the past few years in the early fall or in the spring. I think they were just passing through. To me they seem so much bigger and fly a bit less gracefully than the other swallowtails with their huge wings, so they really stand out even from a distance. According to the BAMONA map they do make it up into northern Wisconsin and Minnesota, but maybe prefer a path closer to the Mississippi river like many birds do. Here is the last one I saw in mid-September 2012 on ironweed. My ironweed is now like 9' tall and has flower buds about to pop so hopefully one will find it this year too.
This is so funny. I was driving from Westchester, IL today (butterfly monitoring), and I thought I saw a GST flying across a major road toward a cemetery (think it was IL 171 just south of Roosevelt incase you know the area).
I've seen them at Camp Sagawau in Lemont, IL last year. So, I hope one comes to my yard soon and finds my new Hop Tree. :)
They are around...
Pretty picture Molanic!
I have seen a GST in my garden in Mass. for the past 2 summers. Historically they are extremely rare in this state. At first I thought it was a EST but even from a distance it became clear the flight pattern was very different.
No sign of a GST here yet this year. A friend of mine in a town about 10 miles away has probably seen one, based upon her description of the "big yellow butterfly" that was nectaring on their Swamp milkweed for a long time.
I have Ruta graveolens in the garden and last year found 1 P. cresphontes cat. Raised it to a chrysalis, but the chrysalis died over the fall. It probably would not have made it over the winter anyway, I overwinter my Papilio chrysalises outside and it was a long cold winter. Lost 3 of 7 P. polyxenes.
I just had a female Giant in my back garden today! She was not as large a specimen as I remember in the previous 2 years. She was nectaring on assorted plants, but mostly the Marigolds. She probably would have preferred the Zinnias, but they were sowed late and have only just started blooming.
I didn't see her near the Rue, not sure if she had eggs to lay or not.
I saw a GST fly thru my garden Sunday afternoon around 2:00pm. I saw another larger specimen fly thru several weeks ago. I counted 4 at a butterfly count near Muscoda on Saturday. Apparently, they aren't that uncommon in Southern Wisconsin in mid to late Summer.
Just saw my first giant in almost two years, and on my birthday to boot! It seems to be a very good butterfly day in general. I also saw at least 2 monarchs, 3 tigers, 2 red-spotted purples, a viceroy, american lady, peck's skipper, hummingbird clearwing moth, and of course a bunch of the ever present cabbage whites. This is my favorite time of year in the garden because all the biggies are blooming (joe pye weed, butterfly bush, ironweed, hardy hibiscus, etc.) and the butterflies are abundant.
Sounds like a wonderfully busy day in the garden :-)> That's a great shot of a nectaring GST!
On average, I'll see a couple of Monarchs, some Tiger Swallowtails (BSTs are scarce this season), a female RT Hummer, a Hummingbird Clearwing Moth and maybe a Question Mark.
I see quite a few small Skippers on my Agastache Anise Hyssop.
Earlier this season, I saw a lot of American Ladies and Red Admirals.
