The same goes for marketers who know better than to use the lazy strategies they've always used, but they can't seem to find the will to change. At this year's SXSW conference, presenters spent a lot of time focusing on mobile marketing and advertising. VentureBeat published an article by Gilad Bechar, the founder and CEO of Moburst, a global mobile marketing agency, which explained some of the key takeaways marketers should finally start implementing in their strategies. Focus on influence rather than outreach By this time, all marketers know that high volumes of online visitors doesn't mean squat for the bottom line. Just because someone looks at your brand or your product doesn't mean they "see" it. The conference reminded marketers to "shift focus and star looking at users as human beings instead of bits of data." When you realize your clientele has unique needs outside of what you think they need, you're more likely to win friends and influence people. Mobile devices have opened up avenues never before available for marketers to meet customer needs. Don't neglect the basics Yes, it's a lot of fun to come up with crazy, half-possible ideas, but it isn't flashy, once-in-a-while projects like this that win loyal customers. They attract attention, but it's up to the basic design of your product's website and day-to-day content marketing that will convert curious bystanders into frequent purchasers. Bechar pointed out, "App marketers and developers must realize that mobile marketing is not just about coming up with cool, creative ideas . . . and is more than often a technical procedure that takes place out of plain sight." Be knowledgeable about the product Marketers don't tend to work directly with the product or service being sold—that's another department's job, after all. But if you're only halfway acquainted with what you're selling, how can you be sure you're highlighting the features that are really important, that people really care about? Marketers and product developers should work hand-in-hand to make sure the product is what people want and it's being described and marketed appropriately.

There are some points in which the playing was "rhythmically free" most likely on purpose. The transcription of the head was done as an exercise in hearing harmony and voicings. I only transcribed the first chorus. Notice that the F tonality (the I chord) is sometimes major sometimes minor. In the head the listener experiences both major and minor tonalities. making the minor tonality sort of like a suspension or and accented set of neighbor tones if you will. anyways, i hope you enjoy and any feedback/criticism will be gladly accepted.

After leaving San Antonio, we drove west on I 10 to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. You can tell immediately when you leave Texas and enter Louisiana.

There were about 10 of us and a guide taking off in a boat designed for sliding through tight spaces and shallow water.

Video: Shootout footage helps police convict drug dealer
The prosecutor said the incident reflects the growing problem of drug cartels operating across the border
By Victoria Cavaliere
New York Daily News
HIDALGO COUNTY, Texas — Dramatic dash cam video capturing a shootout between two sheriff's deputies and suspected drug dealers helped land a conviction in the case, a Texas prosecutor said Wednesday.
Jose Luis Alvarez, a suspected member of the notorious Gulf Cartel, was sentenced to 15 year in prison in December after jurors were presented with a host of evidence against him, including video of the shooting.
The dash cam recording shows the two Hidalgo County sheriff's deputies pulling over a truck in October 2011. The passenger of the car gets out and starts shooting at a deputy who is wearing a bullet-proof vest. The deputy falls to the ground, but returns fire.

Transducers embodied in valves used for controlling oil flow in undersea pipelines have been developed by RDP to operate with high accuracy and high reliability. RDP 's LVDTs are supplied to several valve manufacturers for use with valves controlling the flow of oil from pipe networks on the bottom of the sea, close to the well head. The transducers are usually sealed within the valve and are required to withstand very high pressures of up to 5000 psi. One construction option... (read more)

Troubleshooting Computer & Other Technology Issues – Basic Steps Check Power Check to see that all power cords are plugged in securely (CPU "computer box" and monitor). Check to see that power strips are plugged in and turned on. Check to see that the CPU is on. If the CPU is on "stand-by" or "sleep" mode, you may need to wake it up. Sometimes pressing the Enter key will do this; sometimes you need to gently press the power button. Check to see that the monitor is on. It can appear that the computer is not working if the monitor is off. Shut Down and Restart the Computer If the computer is frozen or not working correctly, or if you get an error message or a blue screen, restarting the computer may resolve the problem. Try the following methods of shutting down and restarting. 1. Start Menu >> Shut Down If this does not work, try #2, then #3. 2. Press and hold these three keys at the same time: Control, ALT, Delete a. You should get a dialog box with Shut Down as one of the options (You may need to try #2 twice.) 3. Do a "hard" shut down. Press and hold the power button until the computer shuts down. This may take several seconds. Wait 1 – 2 minutes, and then press the power button again to restart the computer. Check Network Cables & Connectivity Check to see that both ends of the network cable are plugged in – one end into the computer and the other end into either a wall network outlet (port) or into a port on a switch (a box with 4, 8 or more ports). If a switch is being used, make sure the switch is plugged into a wall network port. o Make sure that you do not have a "loop back," which is a network cable with both ends plugged into ports in the switch. Check Internet connectivity on more than one computer A program is frozen and you can't close it (software application or Internet window): Press and hold the Control, ALT, and Delete keys. In the dialog box, click on the Task Manager button. Select the Applications tab. Select the frozen program from the list; then click on the End Task button. Repeat if necessary. Can't access or log into an application (like Read 180) that requires network connectivity Check to see if you can access any Internet sites on that computer (try Google or Yahoo). Check other computers in your room to see if they can connect to the Internet. Check with other teachers in your building. If they can't access the Internet either, the network at your site or at the district may be down. If you can access the Internet, but can't access (or log into) a specific application like Read 180 or SAM from any of your computers, the server at your site may be down. (Call Help Desk & email Karen or Leah) If a specific student can't log into R180 (but other students can), have him/her try on another computer. Check in SAM for their correct login. Check to see that they are enrolled in the application & using a license. (Also check the "Manage Enrollment" in SAM if none of your students can log in.) Audio and headphone issues Make sure the Volume is not on Mute & check your Sounds and Audio settings (Adjust Audio Properties). Right click on the speaker icon in the bottom task bar or go to Start>> Control Panel >> Sounds and Audio Devices. Getting Help: OUSD Technology Help Desk Phone: 879-8178 Submit an Online Help Ticket (or have your site's office personnel submit a ticket for you): From OUSD homepage, click on OUSD Employee Intranet. (Login with your OUSD email login.) Click on the IT Help Desk Online Request link in the left navigation bar. Be sure to clearly describe the problem you are experiencing and indicate your room number and the location of the equipment. You may also contact an Instructional Technologist for assistance, especially for issues related to instructional applications, training needs, help with setting up or managing the "back end" (student accounts, learning paths, reports) of programs like Read 180 or SuccessMaker; or for basic troubleshooting. However, please remember that the Instructional Techs are not computer technicians and do not do repairs or equipment installations.

I now have all the blocks for my Red Version of my pattern "CRUSH"
My Red Rock Crush ready to sew up!
Remember I asked about the LARGE dot or SMALL dots? (in the making at this link)...
I decided to use both, why not!
My pattern is inspired by an antique quilt block I saw, but i made it MUCH easier to sew.. like WAY easier and fast!
I pulled mostly red and red/white prints, including my coveted out of print Lobster fabric which I may .. or may not.. have yardage of.
So love this with the BIG polka dots! And the Red is my fabric line.
And a few more... so fun to see this quilt come together!!!
It's the kind where you get super excited as you sew each unit together, then a block appears, then another...
Are you like me, and want to sew more and more as they get done?
As I cut off the excess from the Sew and Flip star points, I made bonus 2.5" hst units
They are SO ADORABLE in all their dottie goodness!
Ta-da! What do you think? I love alternating the small and large dots. That just makes it for me!
Now I'm thinking of a 2.5" wide outer border of large dots. Then add a border of the HST bonus units... Then I can get it quilted and cuddle under it
What do you like my Crush Pattern?

Normally i would ditch these kinda topics , people trying to create an MMO.
Most of the answers are from Braindigitalis.
Start small Very small and continue your process.These days MMO's aren't getting attracted to people like in the beginning.
It only gets hyped even if it's crappy.
Keep prototyping your project.
Wish you luck.

Being a second shooter is sometimes frightening. In some ways, you're shadowing another photographer but in other ways, you're maintaining your own individuality without being overpowering. Many second shooters are just starting out and you'll need to keep one very big thing in mind the entire time: photography isn't about gear first and foremost. Primarily, it's about business. Then it's about your portfolio. And then it's about capabilities and gear.
If you're a second shooter or aspiring to be one, then here's what you should know.

Brewed up a partial mash English bitter about 3 weeks ago, and I was hoping to have this kegged and carbed by the end of this weekend for some family that's coming to town. Was my first full boil in my small 7 gallon pot, but it worked fine, just had to keep my eye on it. Also hit all my numbers and temperatures without any problems. Ended up with 1.048 gravity, which is what beer tools pro called for. Used the Wyeast 1099 Whitbread without a starter (I know, I know...made my first starter with the last batch I brewed though) as I've had good results using just the smack packs. I knew there was going to be a lag time since I didn't use a starter, which was fine by me and I put it in my closet and let it ride. I went out of town for the weekend two days after I brewed so I wasn't able to keep my eye on everything. I came back and it looked like it had a settling layer of krausen on top and it had a few bubbles in the air lock (used a glass carboy btw). I let that sit in the carboy for about 3 weeks since I was waiting for my keg to open up. I was planning on racking to the keg today and I took a gravity reading and came up right at 1.046??? What's the deal?
My question now is, how do I get the yeast active again, if that's possible? Or do I need to pitch another pack? Basically, where do I go from here?
Silly question but I've seen it before, how did you take your reading and are you sure the hydrometer was floating and not bottoming out, if you saw evidence of krausen it had to have fermented more than .002 points
Does it taste sweet? I agree - sounds like a technical reading issue. Did the smack pack inflate? Were the temps OK in the spot where it was sitting? Assuming so if you saw krausen, and agree that 0.002 seems very odd with evidence of fermentation.
Thanks for the replies guys. I know it sounds weird, and I'm having trouble seeing anything wrong with what I did. That's why I came here and asked.
Smack pack inflated and temps were fine where I let it ferment (upper 60's for the most of the day). But I always fill up my test tube to where it doesn't bottom out. I also spin the hydrometer and let everything settle out of the way to where I can see everything clearly, so I know that's not the issue. It smells and tastes incredibly yeasty though. A little sweet and some bitterness from the hops, but definitely getting smacked in the face with yeast. Could the yeast be dormant and still sit on top??? Could that have been the layer of what I though was krausen on top?
When you added the yeast did you aerate and mix it in or did you just pour it on the top?
Based upon your description it sounds like its just sitting there and wasn't mixed in?
Agree with the above. The slight difference in hydrometer readings could be attributed to temp variations. Sounds to me like you have no fermentation at all? I'd get some dry yeast in there swirl the carboy some and see what happens. By all means take another gravity reading now just in case, but you either have dead yeast or some mystery problem.
Award winning:Northern Brown Ale"Guess I'll watch some TV, cuz it's nice to see people more messed up than me."Primary: Bottled: Wee Ain't Heavy (Wee Heavy); Kegged: Brown Rhyno Old Ale (Rye Knot+ clone); Second Amendment Vanilla/Bourbon Porter; Pale Ale (a'la EdWort's Haus Pale); On Deck: Northern Brown; Kolsch; Apricot wheat,
Aerated it as best as I could. Put the stopper on and shook the carboy for well over two minutes before I pitched, then swirled gently after I pitched so I know it was mixed in. I wish I knew what the date on the yeast pack was too. I'll have to run to the home brew store on monday and grab some dry yeast and try that I guess.
Also the gravity reading is sitting on my kitchen counter as we speak, and it's more then likely showing the temp drop from when I pitched to fermenting temps like befus suggested.
Sounds like you got an old pack with very little viable yeast. As mentioned, re-pitch, sucks you wasted 3 weeks
Do you have a second hydrometer? It's possible the paper shifted.
Negatory on the 2nd hydrometer, but the paper didn't shift. I store it on it's side in an air conditioned room so there's no way the wax could have melted. I might have noticed if it shifted even 10 points, much less 40. That number I got is exactly the pre-pitching number anyway, so that's kind of a moot point.
Sucks that I waited so long to check, because I was at the home brew store (which is close to 50 miles away) last week. Guess I'll have to get ingredients for another batch while I'm there.....Shucks. I definitely appreciate all the help and speculation so far. I'll keep you guys posted on what happens though.
p.s. Here's some pictures of what my carboy looks like, if anybody is interested. Looked like this for 3 weeks.
Close up of the layer of stuff on the top. Looks just like yeast to me.

Brooke Shield's trajectory from child star to full-fledged movie siren was one littered with plenty of controversy, but the veteran actress, who is mother to two young daughters of her own now, said she had a trick to keep from walking down the path of Hollywood destruction.
"I would get invited to Studio 54, but I'd leave before all the craziness and drugs happened," she told the new issue of Haute Living. "I never saw the bag passed around. Andy Warhol and all those guys were very sweet to me. There was something about me that they wanted to protect and uphold."
PHOTOS: Child stars all grown up!
Shields, now 47, first made her big screen debut as a child prostitute in Louis Malle's controversial Pretty Baby at the young age of 12. The actress said that even though there were plenty of naysayers surrounding the film's release, she was personally never fazed by the risque roles she took on.
"I think that the reason why I was unfazed was because there was an innocence to the characters," she said. "In Pretty Baby the director didn't want a little Lolita, he wanted an innocent kid and he got that."
PHOTOS: 90s stars then and now
Even her mother Teri, who received plenty of backlash for allowing her daughter to star in the film and bare her midriff in a sexy 1980 Calvin Klein advertisement, tried to keep Shields from going down the wrong path, she said.
"She wanted me to stay a kid for as long as possible, which may seem like a contradiction, but there was this freedom and naivety where I wasn't cognizant of things," she explained. "I wasn't cognizant enough to know that you would be insecure or uncomfortable."

Are penisulas dated? Carla Aston thinks so...
In this blog entry, Carla Aston thinks peninsulas are a dated look from the 70s and that most kitchens look more open with islands rather than peninsulas.
Do you agree? I think I would agree for larger kitchens, that islands make the space feel more open, but I am not sure about smaller spaces where having an island would restrict passages to 36-42 inches. I think in a smaller kitchen, a small peninsula 30-48 inches long, not including overhang, would look better than an island.
Would you agree?
Here are some examples Carla Aston gives of kitchens with nice peninsula layouts that would look even better with islands instead...
Here is a link that might be useful: http://carlaaston.com/designed/kitchen-peninsula-or-island
I completely disagree with her. Changing the ones pictured into islands would just make a barrier with narrow passages to the sides, or the world's smallest island.
You also noticed the difference in size between the "has island, looks great" pics and the "nope" ones with a peninsula. A lot of these older houses probably had upper cabinets installed in the ceiling, and people already remove those to open things up. Cutting out the corner to make a peninsula just takes additional storage away. People do need to put food and things somewhere.
i mulled over a peninsula in my kitchen as it is not wide enough for an island. i decided that my kitchen wasn't right for a peninsula due to traffic patterns but i will say that in my area peninsulas are considered dated and islands are king. since i hope to move in the next 5 years?, it was a consideration. the only time i would care about "dated" is in my situation when a person knows they are not living there forever.
Frankly, I think this is just dumb & short-sighted, simply for the reason you stated.
What looks better? A seatable, peninsula with workspace, or a microwave cart-sized island with aisle space?
This type of statement is such hot air. The kitchens shown are lovely. Since it's difficult to see the opposing wall, I can't disagree. One, definitely would look jumbled and, well, silly.
For some reason, this kind of statement, put out there as though there were some authority to the writer, irritates the crap out of me. It's bad enough there so many people who waffle because they're so concerned about "dated" vs. what looks lovely and functional in their home, and suites their décor aesthetic.
Whew. Next time, just ask me how I feel. I won't hold back.
I see it totally as a function of space/layout. In my kitchen, we are actually turning an existing peninsula into an island, not because we have some specific need to have an island, but because it really will improve flow. But I wouldn't necessarily change all/any of the pictures above into an island. I don't see an island as being objectively "better" than a peninsula in any way at all. My old kitchen had a peninsula that made perfect sense and maximized a tiny space.
Here's my kitchen: that peninsula is turning into an island and moving three feet down (there's plenty of space for it). It will greatly improve flow.
BTW add me to the peninsula instead of island club. On paper it would have worked great. The square footage numbers are pretty large and things can be moved around a lot. In the grand scheme of things, not so much. In a nutshell it would have interrupted the line of sight from the front door if everything was moved over sufficiently, the pathway around the dining room end would have little to no traffic, and it would have caused a lot of turns to get around the family room furniture.
I'm just not a big fan of generalizations... in general.
I think in the right kitchen, islands look great and open up the layout. And I do think people have moved away from peninsulas to a large extent, people do see them as 'dated.'
That said, putting an island in any of the kitchens pictured in the initial post would be a crime against aisles. Most small kitchens and some medium sized ones just don't have room for an island, it's a sad fact of life.
My husband the cook also appreciates the bit of a barrier the peninsula offers as most people stay out of his way when cooking.
- signed, a happy peninsula owner (with a kitchen just a little bit too small for an island no matter how I tried to squeeze one in)
Peninsula at work...
Not my photo, but my peninsula

Oh, robotropolis! Those beautiful, fat and happy kitties! And you have such a pretty kitchen.
I'm also a happy peninsula owner. I had a wall with a stove against it when we first moved in. I also have room for an island. But it would have butted into the only dining area I have, whereas my peninsula does not.
Some of these bloggers certainly talk to hear themselves talk, don't they? There's one with a 4-post series on how to strip furniture. Using the unnecessary, flesh-eating chemicals of the previous century. What a serious waste of her time, energy, product, money, and dated information. She does beautiful work, but why take a week to strip furniture? I digress.
Hot air.
It's all a matter of context. She also has a blog entry about how sometimes an island isn't appropriate and a table in the middle makes sense. Unless you follow a blogger and get an overall idea of what their sensibilities are, you can't really interpret a single blog entry. I don't happen to agree that something that functions in a lot of kitchens is "dated" but I will agree that sometimes an island is a better choice. (as are a peninsula, table or "nothing", depending upon the situation).
To be honest, I couldn't finish reading beyond the first few sentences in her blog. She started out by stating how layout is one of the first things she looks at in a remodel. And then how a small kitchen works out better with an island. I think such a generalization is complete BS. If this site has taught me anything, it's that you have to really look at the space available to determine the ideal layout for a kitchen. You cannot simply generlize and say "peninsulas = bad, islands = good". I think I would have a lot more respect for her blog if she could provide any examples where she actually remodeled a kitchen and demonstrated the layout improvements.
As for whether peninsulas are "dated" or "from the 70s"? Well, I'm pretty sure the only thing that makes a kitchen look like it is from the 70s is if it was built in the 70s and has 70s-style materials and/or appliances. Certainly peninsulas probably weren't found in 1920s kitchens, but that doesn't mean that a peninsula layout is inherently dated.
Honestly, I wish I hadn't clicked on her site because she doesn't deserve the traffic.
Thanks for the kitchen comments!
Some of the pictured tables in the "center table" entry also look like crimes against aisles. What do you all think -- can we sacrifice or be flexible with aisle space to get back that great eat in country kitchen feeling?
My grandmother did squeeze a table in to the corner of her 1950s 9'x9' kitchen. It was eventually replaced by a portable dishwasher and a hutch.
This post was edited by robotropolis on Mon, Jul 14, 14 at 12:11
In the pictures posted in the OP 4 of them had seating at the peninsula. None of those kitchens were wide enough to put an island in that contained seating.
My kitchen is 20' X 9' - the island will go......there, no there, nope lets squeeeeeeeze it there and take out the fridge and cabinets on that side of the room and then take down the wall into the DR and then....
We have a peninsula and it sure doesn't look like my mama's.
I hate the island trend as I think many are overdone and attract clutter; and hope they'll be "dated" some day. Peninsulas make sense in smaller kitchens. I would prefer a kitchen large enough for a kitchen table, actually -- I miss them.

It all depends on the kitchen. Things like aisle space and view. In the pictures above, it looks like to change to an island would require the island being rotated 90 degrees from the penisula's location. In some cases this would give the person at the island a lovely view of the refridgerator and a wall. This is the case in my house as well. The penisula faces the family room and I can talk or watch TV while I do prep work. An island would face a wall.
Totally agree that "it depends". CEFreeman and Linelle said it best! Love the responses!
*sigh* and it's b/c of people like this Carla what's-her-name that we have people come here insisting they absolutely must have an island - even when their kitchen cannot support one!
Function first!!!! No, peninsulas are not dated - but islands that don't fit and/or are tiny/narrow that are often barriers ARE!
(OK, done ranting!)
We're all preaching to the choir.
Wonder if she's got a preview the post before posting set-up. It would be very easy to bomb the whole idea. As just dumb.
Ok. this is boring. The only thing redeeming about this thread, that keeps me coming back is the eye candy.
Oh, shut up. [stomping feet]
I hate it when you're right while I was being snotty.
No, really. Anyone who has been around here for awhile has heard this (among many) topic being beaten to death. And we are preaching to the choir.
and stop bragging about your kitchen being done. Meanie.
Something else that's not been mentioned is whether we want people who frequent the island stools to be that *close* to our work area.
My kitchen has a small island, but the space is too small for seating. Instead, the seating is at the peninsula, and it's mainly used by my kids. Homework, snacks, breakfast, sharing the stories of their day while I'm cooking and loading dishwasher, etc. I love having my kids in the kitchen with me... but I like them and their messes "over there" at the peninsula and out of my way.
First, let me say that I agree with everyone. But I also want to say that, yes, peninsulas are "dated"--not in a bad way, let me finish!--because they were very much in vogue in the 60s and 70s, when the concept of an open floorplan was newly hatched.
The open floor plan concept has evolved and now "kitchens are the heart of a home. So in NEW CONSTRUCTION and MAJOR REMODELS, kitchens have tended to get bigger and there is obviously a current preference for islands over peninsulas. And in a sufficiently big kitchen, islands do work well. So islands are trendy. The corrolary is that peninsulas are "dated" in the views of bloggers and the design press.
In smaller kitchens, which most of the mid-century kitchens were, and in newer kitchens of more modest size, islands do not necessarily work well. They often work really badly when someone feels that they MUST shoehorn in an island because anything less is dated and we MUSTN'T ever be DATED [all caps employed solely for the purpose of faux drama].
Peninsulas are a very practical layout option that need to be on the table. They make some kitchens work much better. Judging them on the basis of kitchen "fashion" is wrong-headed.
LWO, I laughed out loud, my priorities correctly realigned.
Linelle, I laughed at you too, while salivating over that gorgeous cookie dough. My cats lounge on my dated peninsula, too. I even have a box on it so one of them will lounge in place, rather than in my occasional cooking. Right now, my furriest, funniest, silver point rag doll, Waylon, is sleeping on my newly pressed, black uniform. Screw the peninsula, here's Laundry!!!
I fully expected your little cat to be photo bombing the cookie down when I got to the bottom of the picture.
I read the article, and I didn't think it was bad. It is worth considering whether a peninsula layout closes off your kitchen in a way you don't want (though there are certainly reasons to close it off, as others here have suggested). Based on this post and thread, I expected to go read a diatribe against peninsulas, and I was let down! :)
(I actually have an island in a kitchen that is probably a bit too small for the island we have, but it works for us and is being slightly retooled for the remodel.)
Christine, for you:
In 1947/48, my dad built the house I grew up in. Our house was considered very modern with lots of glass. We had a great eat-in kitchen WITH PENINSULA, the kind that's rounded at the end with shelves for knick-knacks that the dog would knock over when she wagged her tail. For many years, we also had a parakeet living in a cage on the counter. It seems hilarious to me now, my mom was so neat and fastidious and we had this bird living in the kitchen, throwing seed all over the place.
I had mourned (for about 5 minutes) the fact that my space wasn't wide enough for an island. But you know what? The kitchens shown in the OP look fantastic! They don't look dated or non-functional at all! This post simply reinforces my love for my soon-to-be peninsula! Here's to working with what you have and making it fabulous.
I have a peninsula AND a small island, and of all the things wrong with my kitchen, layout isn't one of them. I am very comfortable cooking in there. The island is perfect for loading and unloading the refrigerator, and the peninsula is the only other place I can really spread out (cool cookies, etc) that doesn't have appliances like toaster and coffeemaker, sink or cooktop. Right now all my countertops are bare because they are getting templated for new surface, and it looks so nice.... wish I didn't have to keep things on there, but of course then I would need more storage space!
Finishes and materials can look dated, but a good layout is timeless.
We all design around our functional needs, within our space limitations, and in some spaces peninsulas offer the greatest functionality. A peninsula is no more dated than a galley kitchen. It's a layout, not an avocado refrigerator.

I really like Carla Aston's blog. She has a number of posts where she articulates design and detail principles, and I have found those helpful. For example, how wood actually is a colour in a room, or how continuous flooring adds to flow in an open concept home, or whether to have a sidesplash.
I never understand the hostility towards posts like this. When I read about design principles, I don't feel obligated to slavishly follow them. Instead, I reflect on whether or how they apply to me. A good blog post is one that presents a topic, analyzes it, and triggers my own thought processes regarding my own home - whether or not I agree with it or feels it applies to me.
For example, Carla Aston's post on continuous flooring did influence me. I wanted to extend the hardwood into the kitchen but I was having trouble biting the bullet on the cost and hassle involved - but I am so glad I did. I made budget sacrifices in other areas to make this possible.
There was a time when every kitchen *had* to have a peninsula, whether it made sense for the room dimensions or flow. I agree with Carla Aston that it's dated to think that you *have* to have a peninsula. Of course, at some point in the future, it will be dated to think that you *have* to have an island.
I actually read that post when I was trying to decide between a "U" shaped kitchen with a peninsula vs an "L" shaped kitchen with an island. The peninsula design would have given me more counter space, more storage, and a more contained kitchen. The island design had the benefit of better flow (4 people going in and out of a small kitchen), less counter space (cheaper), and only one corner cabinet. I picked an island based on what works for my household and I am thrilled with the result.
There have been some threads here on GW where my strong opinion was that a peninsula would be the best solution for that kitchen layout. Islands simply don't work in some spaces regardless of the trend.
As a total amateur, I find it very helpful when designers share their ideas. Designing is an art. Some amateur designers pull it off, others fall short of the mark - I think there are lots of examples of both.
Feisty, I take umbrage with the statement that peninsulas (or frankly, much in decorating) are dated. As though that's it. She says so. That's what I get. Hang with me here:
A corollary:
There's a yoga teacher who wrote a book, 'Yoga for Depression.' I read it. Her story out of depression was difficult. She overcame a lot. IMHO, her focus on her yoga practice is what got her through, not the actual postures (asana) or sequence thereof.
However, by the end of the book she was saying, "You will feel better if...." Or "Do xxxx and everything will be lighter." IOW, she was putting things out there as though there was a defined method (law) and she had found the Way. If one didn't feel better, one obviously wasn't following her Way correctly.
Unfortunately -- and fortunately -- yoga works completely differently for each and every person. Those suffering from depression who follow her Way and don't feel better? I watched a few who became even more depressed because something, yet again, didn't work for them.
I resent the author making $$ on the yoga workshop circuit preaching absolutes when there is nothing in yoga (or life) that is absolute.
My practice is one method, but I teach therapeutic yoga. I've seen a lot over the years. It is difficult enough to live with depression, but to feel a failure yet again is worse. It's also difficult to bring someone back to themselves in only 2 classes a week.
So if you substitute this blogger into the story, and insecure, newbie, or easily influenced decorators/renovators, there, I find is a similar story.
Does that explain at least my vehemence about this type of thing? It comes over me whenever someone puts out their WAY as absolute. Probably way too much energy devoted to this thought, to tell you the truth.
CEFreeman, in my opinion there are no absolutes in life, let alone in decorating, so I absolutely ;) see where you're coming from! But I also think that there's a place for stating one's opinion boldly and without dithering. That's what blogs are for, in my opinion. Insecure/newbie/easily influenced decorators/renovators have a steep learning curve to reconcile their own home/tastes/budget to design concepts, be they timeless or trendy. Might as well start now!
Can't argue with that, feisty. I believe I've started a few threads about whining apologizes for budget kitchens, for example.
Stated as an opinion is one thing, but then, I have to correct myself. What is a blog other than one giant opinion? Love those new reports interviewing bloggers. Uh-huh.
After I clean some crap off, I'll lean on my peninsula and contemplate this.
It's funny, we have an island currently and are re-doing our kitchen. We wanted an island again, but with moving the things around that we wanted moved, we were having a hard time making the island we wanted fit.
After struggling on it for ages with our designer and "making" it fit (but it still felt a bit squeezed in), suddenly she says, "would you guys be at all interested in seeing a peninsula idea?" She was hesitant, probably partly because our time is short and we've worked on the island design so much, and maybe because of a possible perception that islands are the in thing.
My first thought (without seeing anything) was that peninsulas are old fashioned. I have no idea why I thought that, but I did.
But, after a few minutes of looking at the peninsula design, my husband and I were both really pleased and excited. The new plan solves all the space issues plus it utilizes formerly "dead" space that we couldn't figure out how to use in the old plan.
So I think we'll be doing a peninsula. But I will admit that my first instinct was that it was old fashioned.
Whatever works well in a kitchen and is finished well, never goes out of date. Peninsulas if meeting the above criteria, are very 21st century.
I love Islands; but am also a practical horses for courses kind of person. In my small kitchen, if I were to put an Island, getting out of the kitchen would be fastest accomplished by crawling over it. I read her blog and she is entitled to her views, but to put it in context, all the pictures showh have kitchens with a relatively large amount of space.
PS; robotropolis - what cuddle-able cats you have:-)

After her most talked about performance during Super Bowl's halftime, Beyoncé is back on the glossy pages of magazines.
Queen Bey strips down for the March issue of Vogue magazine. During her exclusive interview, she said that there is one important thing on her mind right now, Blue Ivy.
Although Beyoncé is busy with an upcoming world tour, not to mention a new album on the works, the songstress says that her daughter is her utmost priority. She told Vogue about her inexplicable experience as a mother and the way it changed her.
"Right now, after giving birth, I really understand the power of my body. I just feel my body means something completely different. I feel a lot more confident about it. Even being heavier, thinner, whatever," she said on Vogue. "I feel a lot more like a woman. More feminine, more sensual. And no shame."
Although she admits that she was initially scared about giving birth, having the support of family, friends and Jay Z was able to help her through the delivery process. And now that she has Blue Ivy, she said that she wants another child in the future.
"Giving birth made me realize the power of being a woman. I have so much more substance in my life I actually feel like my child introduced me to myself," she said.
Beyoncé who is enjoying the experience of being a first time mom refers to Blue as "my homey, my bestfriend."
"When I was younger, there were moments where I said, I'm not going to have children. And then moments when I wanted four. And now I definitely want another, but I don't know when," Beyoncé admits.
With regards to past rumors that she had to fake her pregnancy in order to protect her figure, the pop diva called it "odd." As it turns out, it was Beyoncé who had to tell her mom, Tina, not to listen to gossips and tabloids adding that she doesn't owe the public any explanation about it.
