Being a Reds fan about a half hour from Winston-Salem, I'd love to see them come back into the Carolina League.
Being a Reds fan about a half hour from Winston-Salem, I'd love to see them come back into the Carolina League.
Some thoughts: Do the Giants have commitment issues? They still are unsigned at AA, High A and and Short Season levels.
The Sarasota Reds are an odd bird: The Reds own the franchise but haven't renewed. Half the sites show them as leaving and half as staying. I just wonder if there is anything to fact that Winston-Salem hasn't resigned?
If Reds got Carolina, would they be interested in making a play for Winston-Salem as their High A team?
The lowest acceptable payroll amount for ownership to show they are not greedy pigs is 15 million more than they are currently paying. No matter what that currently is.
I am a Reds fan in Wilmington, NC. I hope The Reds do get the Carolina Mudcats. That would only be about a hour or so away from me.
A few comments on some of the posts. First, the Reds own the Sarasota franchise at the moment. Their agreement with that franchise extends automatically, as long as the Reds own the franchise. With spring training moving to Arizona in 2010, it is highly unlikely that the Reds would want to continue to own and operate that franchise. It is not a money maker and they would have no real reason to be in Sarasota, not to mention the fact that there would likely be some bad blood between the Reds and the city, which would make things more difficult in terms of stadium upkeep, security, etc. If the Red Sox move their spring training home to Sarasota, the Red Sox would likely be looking to sell their Salem franchise in the Carolina League. It is possible that some sort of swap could take place, although the value of the Salem franchise would be much higher than the Sarasota franchise (millions higher). This could happen at any time. Even after the October deadline passes, MLB could still approve an affiliation switch under circumstances like this if the Reds and Red Sox desired.
As far as the Dayton classification change, the thing to understand is that the owners of the Dragons, Mandalay, purchased a Midwest League franchise when they moved the Dragons to Dayton from Rockford, Illinois. Mandalay owns a Midwest League franchise. To upgrade the Dragons to a higher level, Double-A for example, Mandalay would have to purchase an existing Eastern League or Southern League franchise (costs usually run in the $10 million range) and move that franchise to Dayton. They would still own the Midwest League franchise, so they would need to find another Midwest League city (with a suitable stadium) to relocate the Dayton franchise to. They would also have to most likely pay some kind of territorial fee to the Midwest League for taking the Dayton territory from the league. They would need to pay a relocation fee to the Midwest League for moving the Dayton franchise to wherever it went, and they would need to pay another relocation fee to the Double-A league that they are joining for moving one of their franchises to Dayton. Relocation fees are usually about a million per move. Not sure what the territorial fee would be. Lastly, they would need to get approval from the Reds to move their Double-A affiliate into Dayton, which would probably be the least problematic of any of these things. You are looking at a cost of probably $13 million total. Question is, would you see enough of an increase in attendance in Dayton to justify spending that kind of money? Not sure how. They are selling out every game as it is. The one wildcard to this discussion is that Mandalay already owns an Eastern League franchise that could be moved to Dayton (Erie). In my opinion, the biggest holdup here would be finding a new Midwest League city with a ballpark in a market where Mandalay thought they could attract fans in high numbers.
It was announced that New Orleans will be the Florida AAA club. I thought that was interesting. Wonder who the Mets end up with?
Some people play baseball. Baseball plays Jay Bruce.
Mets signed before Florida did.
Redsof72, I did not know it was possible to swap after the agreement in High A. That throws a new wrinkle in things. I assumed Reds would have to officially annouce an extension since Boston had to with Salem. On the other hand, Boston wasn't with them.
The lowest acceptable payroll amount for ownership to show they are not greedy pigs is 15 million more than they are currently paying. No matter what that currently is.
In some situations, exceptions have been made and a swap has been permitted after the deadline or after one year of a two year agreement. If the Red Sox worked out a spring training deal with the city of Sarasota in, say, December, I would expect that MLB would allow the Red Sox to move their high-A club there and allow the Reds to go into Salem if the Reds wanted to do that. There would have to be some negotiations because, again, those high-A clubs are actually owned by their parent clubs and they could not do a clear swap because the Salem team is profitable (I assume) and the Sarasota team operates at a loss. The value of the Salem franchise would far exceed the value of the Sarasota franchise.
I remember a few years back, the Peoria Chiefs announced a new PDC in October and several months later, before the start of the season, they announced a swap with another Midwest League team (I think it was Battle Creek if my memory is correct) to bring a different affiliate to Peoria.
The long rumored Yankees/Trenton extension apparently has occurred with press conference scheduled for tomorrow. C'mon Carolina.... make it happen.
The lowest acceptable payroll amount for ownership to show they are not greedy pigs is 15 million more than they are currently paying. No matter what that currently is.
For what it's worth...I emailed the sports reporter for the News Observer to see if he had any insight as to whether the Reds or Giants would be the parent club for the Mudcats. Here is what he had to say...
There are rumors on the Internet about who is favored, but none cite
any sources. I just talked to the general manager and he said he
expected to make a decision soon, maybe this week. He has given me no
indication that there is a front runner. Sorry I can't offer any
Javier Serna
That's funny. I emailed him also and got same basic response..... Is waiting for the Press Release "journalism"? C'mon buddy, you never saw All The President's Men"? Get some sources......
The lowest acceptable payroll amount for ownership to show they are not greedy pigs is 15 million more than they are currently paying. No matter what that currently is.
Side thought on minor league level jumping: the current system is built to protect the status quo, almost every system is. Yet comes a time every now and then when people decide they don't like the status quo. The attendance in the FSL, Cali and Carolina leagues is weak, particularly the FSL. The MWL, Sally and New York-Penn leagues are thriving. At some point, the affiliates with higher attendance are going to get itchy and demand the system get an overall. It won't be one team asking, it will be blocks of teams and entire leagues.

Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

Best location and great accomodation!
We stayed in a one bedroom apartment on the 7th floor. It was very clean, well furnished, had everything we could possibly need! A water filter in the refrigerator, very comfortable beds, laundry detergent, soap in bathrooms and kitchen, great size towels, a hairdryer! They thought of everything! The view is breathtaking and the apartment was even better than we expected! The location is the very best! The light rail, Mahane Yehuda market, Ben Yehuda street and Kotel are in easy walking distance. Michal and all the other staff are very friendly and helpful! They answered all our questions and are professional and very friendly. We had the very best vacation and will definitely recommend Windows of Jerusalem vacation apartments to our friends and family! B"H we will be back.
Perfect vacation in the perfect place!!
If you want to have the perfect relaxing vacation in Phuket you just found the perfect place !!...This penthouse is the best place we have rented in Phuket and please keep in mind that we come to Phuket for every year the last 18 years. My wife found this place online , showed it to us and we were all sold . But pictures do not make justice to this place because the reality is 100% better. The apartment is the top floor of a small resort building RIGHT ON THE BEACH and the views are really superb throughout the day . Furnishing and decoration are very elegant , beds are super comfortable, bathrooms are large and the balcony jacuzzii provided great moments for our family .DID I MENTION THE VIEWS? we were able to watch fireworks EVERYnight all along the beach in the various venues. The staff was very friendly and attentive to all our needs and the suggestions of the owner Antonios were all priceless and on spot . We hardly venture out at all because the place was so spectacular . Many restaurants and shops all around the property were enough to cover all our needs and tastes . People were not swimming directly in front of the place because of the small boats but i was and i was happy . My wife preferred to walk 50m on the right where the most beautiful sandy beach was and my 2 kids were kept very happy with all the water activities found all along that beach too . We made the mistake to stay here only 5 nights ( children wanted to go to Bangkok for 5 more nights) and now we are all regretting it . Thank you ANTONIOS for sharing your beautiful place with us and thank you for the most beautiful vacation we had in Thailand for years! You will see us very very soon again!
From the front desk staff to the beautiful apartment everything was flawless. It was the best place to honeymoon. The beaches are within a short walk and there are great restaurants nearby. I would go back in a heartbeat.

questions about barrier free tile shower over concrete slab
my desire is to have an open , barrier free shower area. i will be removing the current cheap plastic shower stall, and hope to use the existing drain. our house is built on a concrete slab. can i use redguard or something similar directly over the concrete floor and tile directly over this or do i need a pan? i would use hardi backer for the walls. please advise the simplest way of doing this. thanks.
I see no one has answered you so I will give you a couple of places to go to look for examples close to what your wanting to do. I am doing a trench drain with no curb and plan on using kerdi the orange stuff as well as Noble the blue stuff. you can find info on this subject with installation instructions that you can adapt to your situation. www.quickdrainusa.com Also you might find some information on johnbridge.com web site. Just go into the tile advice forum and look around and do some searches. You can also find some info in respect to handicap showers as they are built similar. I don't feel qualified to give you any instruction cause were figuring out as we go and God willing it will be correct. Good luck and if you find any good info let us know in here.
suschmoo2 you can have it the way you want it. My guess is you will end up with a custom built shape floor, and so this is best membraned with a liquid, paint-on or trowel-on membrane like Redgard (or many others). You can build a small speed bump, as a sill, if it's a small shower. To make the shower floor slope, you can build up a slope on top of the slab, or cut a bit into the slab. Your drain can be a trench drain, either by cutting or by building up. All this assumes you own the slab (if it's not a condo) and you know enough to be sure the slab can be cut without risking other problems. It assumes also that you want to breathe concrete dust by cutting. The point is that you must plan for a slope, and it is either made by cutting down or by building up.
I found john bridge and the key people at his site to be dodgy about helping anyone study options that would result in a non-Schluter solution. Schluter makes Kerdi, Ditra and other good things. Also, at the time I was there, some key contributors didn't understand that there is no deflection in a slab (it's not made with joists) so this alone might raise eyebrows. Also, they couldn't handle the idea that a homeowner might want a flat sloped floor with a straight line drain at the end; instead the inverted cone floor with a centered drain was the only way to go... I could give you other examples of a lack of understanding in general, but I'll spare you the details. They are good but only so far and not more. The pro's in their pro forum do not help newbies with non-Schluter or non-Kerdi things.
suschmoo2 I believe that there are some regulations that state you have to have a 2" barrier in case of flooding. I recently visited some friends and they solved this problem by building a bump and slopes on either side of the bump. That way you could wheel a wheelchair over the bump if you would every need to. If you do a search on this site you should be able to come up with some threads on this subject.

This November, dollars from the Unlock Jailhouse fundraising campaign were put into action as 45 climbers spent the day with shovels in hand to start a new era at Jailhouse, ensuring that climbers can safely park their cars at a new trailhead half the distance to the crag. The new Access Fund Conservation Team organized dozens of volunteers in its most extensive project to date.

Access Fund Senior Policy Advisor, Jason Keith, moderates a panel of senior level federal land managers
The first-ever Outdoor Alliance Partnership Summit kicked off on the evening of Dec. 6, at the American Mountaineering Center in Golden, CO. The two-day meeting brought together field staff and volunteers from each of the six OA groups—as well as representatives from state and federal land management agencies—to share stories of successful working relationships from around the United States. "When people think of public lands, it's too often that they focus on the same old argument of recreation versus extraction," says Adam Cramer, Policy Architect for OA. "This event brought leaders together to figure out how to strike the best balance of land use and protection."
The summit opened with a videotaped address from Sen. Mark Udall (D-CO). He praised the Outdoor Alliance for its successes combining local efforts with federal initiatives to mobilize the next generation of outdoor stewards. Peter Metcalf, CEO of Black Diamond Equipment, gave the keynote address.
Sessions covered a wide range of topics including the economic benefits of shared-use trail systems, ecological benefits of river restoration, successful travel management planning, youth engagement and partnership techniques for turning innovative visions into real projects. "We focused on 18 stories of public/private partnerships that balance recreation and conservation, and identified common elements which led to success," says Brady Robinson, Executive Director of the Access Fund. "The goal of the summit was to encourage land managers and advocates to understand each other's perspectives, to see that we share many goals and values, and to chart positive ways to work together. On all counts the meeting was a huge success."
The Outdoor Alliance (OA) is a coalition of six conservation and recreation groups: Access Fund, American Canoe Association, American Hiking Society, American

The Carolina Climbers Coalition (CCC) made their final payment last week on their Access Fund Land Conservation Campaign (AFLCC) loan, completing their purchase of the Rumbling Bald West Side Boulders in North Carolina. The six acres of climber-owned boulders are centrally located to Asheville, Charlotte, and Greenville, SC and contain approximately 200 high quality boulder problems. The area sees considerable use from southeast climbers. The CCC and the Access Fund worked together to purchase this popular bouldering area from a private developer in 2009. The CCC is the third organization to fully pay back their AFLCC loan, returning funds to the revolving loan program where the Access Fund will loan the money out again to save another threatened climbing area.
Way to go CCC!
With the help of several BLM staff and volunteer archeologists, Dave and Jeff addressed some issues at the Tablelands in Bishop, CA that were encroaching on archeological sites. The group closed a couple of roads and camping areas, dismantled fire pits, and removed a stone wall that had been constructed as a wind shelter—all of which were impacting the archeological sites. After completing work at the Tablelands, Dave and Jeff moved on to install some trademark "Conservation Team" steps on the approach to the Sad Boulders and, with the help of four dedicated local volunteers, installed a bunch of check dams (more than they cared to count at the end of the day), and addressed other areas of the trail that were a concern. "Overall, the Sads approach is much more sustainable than it was when we arrived," says Dave. Now on to Sonora for the Jailhouse Adopt a Crag....

The Conservation Team arrived in Prescott on the morning of November 17th and met with Kevin Keith, the AF Regional Coordinator for the area. After helping Dave and Jeff get situated in a camping spot in town, Kevin gave the guys a tour of the Granite Dells climbing area. They surveyed the High Rappel Dell crag and discovered that the initial approach from what will eventually be a city parking lot/trail head, was severely eroded and abraded.
The Conservation Team determined that traffic needed to be redirected to a more sustainable surface, and elected to install a timber staircase that redirects traffic to the slick rock access to the climbing area. Dave, Jeff, and Kevin spent 3 days working on the project. They installed a beautiful serpentine set of timber stairs and a stone retaining wall, using what stone was available locally to hold the soil in place above the stairs.

On October 26, 2011, the United States House of Representatives voted to pass the Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2011 which would exchange approximately 2,400 acres of public land for 5,300 acres held by a multi-national mining company for the creation of a massive copper mine. The public land to be exchanged includes the Oak Flat campground, and a popular climbing area with hundreds of existing roped climbing routes and thousands of bouldering problems that for years was home of the historic Phoenix Bouldering Contest. Much of the Oak Flat area was protected from mining through an executive order made during the Eisenhower Administration, but now Resolution Copper Mining (RCM) seeks to take possession of the land through an act of Congress. A spirited debate on the bill in the House of Representatives may be viewed here. The Senate now must introduce and pass a "companion bill" before the exchange is signed into law.
Earlier this year, the Access Fund submitted comments on the bill, H.R. 1904. Because provisions favorable to climbers which were included in past versions of the bill have been removed, new environmental concerns have emerged (namely the omission of a pre-exchange NEPA process), and climbers have yet to complete an agreement with RCM to address the loss of climbing resources, the Access Fund opposes H.R. 1904 while these issues remain unresolved.
The Access Fund and Arizona climbing community have long worked to protect climbing in central Arizona, first through the Friends of Queen Creek, then the Queen Creek Coalition (QCC), and more recently the QCC and the Concerned Climbers of Arizona (CCA). Strategic disagreements in the climbing community split the QCC into two groups: one that retains the QCC name and works to "maximize rock climbing resources in the Queen Creek region of Arizona by maintaining productive relationships with involved companies, land managers and civic leaders" and the CCA who "advocate for continued recreational access to climbing areas that are threatened by development or other forms of encroachment." Comments on H.R. 1904 from the QCC may be found here. The CCA position on H.R. 1904 is found here.
The Access Fund has not exclusively sided with either of central Arizona's climbing advocacy groups, but continues to work with each organization, Congress, and RCM directly to advocate for climbing access and the conservation of climbing resources in Arizona.
There are many recent articles which cover the bill in greater detail. RCM has posted a video promoting the mine, which includes an overview of the block cave mining technique and a simulation of the damage that would occur through surface subsidence.
Although both Arizona Senators Kyl and McCain are in favor of the exchange, the controversial bill will face greater opposition in the Democratic-controlled Senate. The Access Fund will continue to monitor the situation, directly engage members of Congress, and send an action alert soliciting climber input when the companion bill is introduced in the U.S. Senate.
Southern hospitality is alive and well in the Red! The feedback we received from the locals was great—everyone was very appreciative of our visit and our work. We completed a stone step project at the Solar Collector/Gold Coast approach. The project consisted of installing 15 stone steps and a stone retaining wall to replace the existing decaying wood structures. We were fortunate to find good building stone in abundance in the area, and the soils there lend themselves very well to trail work, being primarily composed of clay. We spent two long days completing the project, and overall were very pleased with the finished product. We were assisted by Matt Tackett of the RRGCC during a brief site visit in which we discussed the details of the project.
There are still a few tools that we need to acquire that would make our lives easier and our work better. I also need stronger forearms to climb in the Red. Dave's good, even without much of an index finger. So if you guys could get on that, that would be great ;).
In addition to our work at the Solar Collector/Gold Coast area we were fortunate to meet with Rick & Liz Weber, the owners of Muir Valley. Rick took us on a tour of the property, where we made an assessment of some trail work. There is an endless potential for future projects in the Red, both in the PMRP & Muir Valley. And RRGC and Rick and Liz are enthusiastic about us returning in the spring for a bigger project with more volunteer support.
We hit Rocktoberfest on Friday and Saturday nights and worked the Access Fund booth—great time. On Sunday night, we were invited to Dr. Bob Matheny's for a much appreciated post-event dinner/party.
Thanks to Bob, Matt, Rick and Liz for a memorable trip. Now on to Indian Creek!
As reported in August E-News, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Idaho is proposing a climbing ban on its property at Massacre Rocks and making its ban at Castle Rocks permanent due to fears that climbing could potentially have negative impacts on cultural resources at each location. The Access Fund is working with the Boise Climbers Association (BCA), the Eastern Idaho Climbers Coalition (EICC), members of Idaho's Congressional Delegation, the local BLM, and other concerned stakeholders to find a reasonable compromise that allows climbing and protects valuable culture resources.
Recently, Jason Keith (AF Senior Policy Advisor) and R.D. Pascoe (AF Policy Director) travelled to Idaho for several meetings with the Working Group to find possible solutions. The AF, the BCA, and potentially the EICC are drafting a joint comment letter that provides site specific suggestions that accommodate climbing and protect sensitive cultural resources. Members of Idaho's Congressional Delegation, Idaho State and County Officials, and local civic leaders are encouraging the BLM to consider an option that permits climbing. The AF is offering climbing management expertise, funding for research/monitoring, and volunteer stewardship support. Stay tuned for more to come.
The 2011 National Access and Stewardship Summit in Golden, CO was our largest to date and featured three concurrent tracks for attendees to choose from. The Access Fund provided travel scholarships to encourage regional diversity, and attracted nearly 75 climbers from across the States as well as Canada and Latin America. A total of 17 workshops covered important topics in stewardship, education, land conservation, policy, and local support and mobilization. Rocky Mountain Field Institute and Colorado Mountain Club hosted hands-on training in volunteer management and advanced rock work at the Access Fund-owned Golden Cliffs Preserve.

The Access Fund is excited to announce that the Access Fund's new traveling Conservation Team, sponsored by Jeep® brand, is ready to hit the road—first stop the Rocktoberfest climbing festival in the Red River Gorge of Kentucky. After the festival, the crew will take on their first stewardship project in collaboration with the Red River Gorge Climbers' Coalition.
After interviewing many great candidates, the Access Fund is pleased to welcome Dave Montgomery and Jeff Young as the Conservation Team crew. The duo met during their days working for Jefferson County Open Space in Colorado as trail technicians, and applied for the crew together. Both are avid climbers and come to the Access Fund with extensive trail building, stewardship, and conservation expertise.
Dave and Jeff check out the new 2011 Jeep Patriot as they prepare to hit the road. Shown with Stewardship Manager, Jenny Blackmore who will be managing Conservation Team logistics from the Boulder office
Dave, a native to Colorado, is a dedicated volunteer and has worked to coordinate numerous stewardship events at climbing areas in the South Platte. He has also worked extensively with kids, teaching Leave No Trace clinics and coaching a youth climbing team for a recreational center. Jeff, an Illinois native, is also an avid volunteer, lending his time and trail building skills to numerous Adopt a Crag events across the Colorado front range. The Access Fund is thrilled to have Dave and Jeff leading the Conservation Team.
The Conservation Team will be leaving the Access Fund office in a new 2011 Jeep Patriot on October 4 and will make their way to Kentucky by October 7. "We're excited to work with the Red River Gorge climbers to help address their conservation needs," says Dave. The team will work with locals to provide training on planning and stewardship best practices.
"We are honored and excited that the Access Fund-Jeep Conservation Team is kicking off their tour at the Red River Gorge," says Rick Bost of the Red River Gorge Climbers' Coalition. "This program is going to have a huge positive impact on the climbing areas throughout the US as well as promote more cooperation between the local climbing organizations and the Access Fund."
The Access Fund-Jeep Conservation Team mission is to address conservation issues at climbing areas around the country before they become dire. To make a donation to support this critical work, visit www.accessfund.org/CTdonate.
The Conservation Team is made possible by Title Sponsor, Jeep, and Supporting Sponsors, CLIF Bar, Outdoor Research and REI.
The Gunks Climbers' Coalition has joined forces with the Access Fund for the good of climbers and climbing access along the Shawangunk Ridge and surrounding areas. You can now join both organizations at the same time, and receive two sets of benefits for the cost of one! Joint membership starts at just $35!

Last fall word spread of a fee increase proposal at Denali that could go as high as $500. After a year of working with the American Alpine Club and American Mountain Guides Association to investigate the scope and associated budget of the mountaineering program, we are happy to report that the fee increase is lower than originally expected. Denali National Park announced last week a fee increase from $200 to $350 for climbing on Denali and Mt. Foraker, which will go into effect on January 1, 2012. The park also set a discounted $250 youth pass.
The Access Fund, American Alpine Club, and American Mountain Guides Association presented a united front in working with Denali National Park, National Park Service officials in Washington, DC, and members of Congress. Collectively, we worked together to investigate the mountaineering program and ensure that the public had an opportunity to provide input and suggestions on the Park's proposal and help them identify ways to make the mountaineering program more cost-effective.
The positive outcome from this effort is that we worked together to become better informed and find common ground related to the scope and associated budget of Denali's $1 million annual Mountaineering Program. "It's been a long road. We didn't get everything we wanted, but we're happy with how things worked out in the end," said the Access Fund's Senior Policy Advisor Jason Keith. "We are especially appreciative of the discounted $250 youth fee. The park worked hard to get there." The fees may be adjusted periodically based on actual costs, but the Park has agreed not to exceed changes in the cumulative consumer price index based on inflation.
For more information, see Denali's mountaineering page, or email email@example.com.

There are small UI things that I'm not crazy about, like the big font, but otherwise it's a pretty app. However, the app doesn't run as well as I want it to, hence the 3 star rating.

Tony Stewart is NASCAR's grumpy old man.
Now 42, Stewart hardly ever seems happy at the racetrack.
He grumbles at the media almost every week, snapped at Michael Waltrip on TV prior to the race at Dover and then went on a tirade in his postrace press conference over rumors about crew chief Steve Addington.
But the truth is, an angry Tony usually is a more driven Tony. (Remember how he turned his late-season angst into a championship run in 2011?)
Fueled by 12 weeks of frustration to start the season, Stewart grumbled and rumbled to a victory Sunday at Dover.
With the win, Stewart gained four positions in the points standings and leaped six spots in our weekly rankings.

Give up or add on
I am trying to convince my husband that adding a breezeway and garage with master bedroom above is a good idea. We are getting on in years and our house is a Victorian / farmhouse design (designed ourselves).
We had to blast to build on our lot and he is saying it would be too expensive to do this addition. We live in the Northeast ; can someone ballpark what a small breezeway and garage addition ( heat, plumbing , etc ) might go for ?
Not a good idea for aging in place unless you want to add an elevator which would add another 15K in expense to the 150K average construction costs for the suite and garage. If you plan on anything, it should probably be downstairs, and involve universal design principles. IF you want to stay in the home.
Here is a link that might be useful: Renovation costs.
Is there enough grade change to the lot to not have the garage be a giant swimming pool? Having it essentially be downstairs only works if the out has a good bit of slope. Even then you'd need an elevator to go up stairs to the main living area if you don't want to move to assisted living at a later date. Stairs to bring in groceries is an big PIA even when you are young.
Driveway now and basement entrance are at grade. Main living area is up one flight of stairs to porch and house from driveway and street, so garage would be at street level and master wing (above garage) would be at main level. Yard slopes down to driveway .Basement living area is half above ground and half below with basement door at driveway .Am I being clear here or confusing ?
I think I get it, but yes, a picture would help. Would you have to do any blasting for the new garage? What is the breezeway for? If the bedroom is attached to the house, and the garage is beneath it, where is the breezeway? Would the basement door open into the new garage, and become your garage entrance to the house?
I would make a window in the dining room into a doorway into a breezeway type addition that would connect to the garage under/master over . The garage/master would be at an angle to the breezeway and line up with the driveway as it is now . The yard where this addition will be is about four feet above the present driveway. Not sure how to attach a drawing /picture, but will try.

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Battery recycling program to expand
There is a pall hanging over Westwood as I write this. The events of July 24 on Coleridge Park are tragic. I would like to extend our neighbourhood's condolences to the family and to respect their request for privacy at this time.
July is been a busy month for me personally. As many of you know, I have introduced a new battery recycling program into St. Charles Ward.
For the past month I have been personally hand delivering our custom-designed battery recycling boxes to all of the homes south of Portage Avenue. During my walks, I have enjoyed a great many conversations with residents regarding local and city-wide issues.
My office has been receiving a steady flow of calls from residents requesting battery box pickups. So far, we have collected over 200 pounds of batteries would have otherwise been dumped into a landfill where, over time, they would have polluted our environment.
The success of the collection boxes so far has encouraged me to expand the battery recycling program to those residences north of Portage Avenue. A new batch of battery recycling boxes has been ordered and I intend to spend much of the month of August going street to street delivering these boxes while talking with you about any concerns you have related to the neighbourhood and the city.
As always, if you have any questions, comments or concerns, please contact my office by phone at 204-986-5920 or by email at email@example.com

Postdoctoral Researcher Interview
I applied through college or university. The process took 2+ months – interviewed at IBM Research in May 2014.
I met with someone at a university event and followed up with him through email. He set up a phone interview with two people of the group. They both were very nice and the interview was on the line of trying to understand what are my strengths and weaknesses, especially since I have a non typical background for the group. They asked for some example of code I had written and promised they would follow up with me, no matter what. Not hearing back after 10 days or so, I shot an email, after which I was called by the same person, inviting me to visit the research center for a full day. There I talked with lots of people from the group in a very relaxed and open environment, the whole interview process till this point had been really great. The interview went fairly well and definitely some people were very interested in me. At the end I was told again that they would let me know as soon as possible if they were going to make me an offer or not, as communication about this is IBM policy.
After 2 weeks I did not hear anything and try to contact them with no result. I waited another 3 weeks (5 weeks total after the interview) and tried again. In half an hour I received a one line email just saying they were not going to make me an offer. At the request of some feedback, I was told that IBM does not discuss its hiring policy.
Nice interview experience, but very disappointing last phase. I do not necessarily expect to get an offer, but I would think that I should be told if that would happen or not as soon as the decision is taken, especially when in the final stage.
- No difficult questions. Mainly talking about myself and my research (even if it was not related to the group's) and basic questions about probability and algorithms. Answer Question

I applied through an employee referral – interviewed at IBM Research in March 2014.Interview Details
I met a research staff member at a conference and revealed my interests on the company. Then I had a phone interview with the staff to confirm my qualification. Then I was invited as a seminar speaker. I talked to 4 postdocs/junior staffs in the morning, gave a talk at noon, and talked to 4 senior staffs/managers in the afternoon. It went well. Most of them are interested in my current research. A potential manager asked me a hypothetical question about how to deal with a specific technical problem. I had a positive experience at IBM. The job opening came up after 3 months. They are interested in my so they contacted my reference about my qualifications on that position. My reference said the position might not fit my background therefore I did not get the offer.Interview Questions

Gallery: The Voltaic Fuse 10W Solar Laptop Charger Buckles Onto Any Bac...
Portable solar chargers are an amazing creation, and now you can have one that latches onto almost anything you carry! Voltaic systems' Fuse 10W Solar Laptop Charger can attach to any technical backpack, panniers, or whatever else it can fit its flexible buckles around. The three 3.4 watt solar panels are lightweight, super-strong, and waterproof, so whether you are camping, hiking, or on any other adventure, your beloved devices will never be without power. Big enough to charge laptops of all sizes and versatile enough to accommodate tablets, iphones, cameras, and other handhelds, the Fuse 10W is the ultimate travel companion.
The Fuse's body is made of 600D shell from PET recycled soda bottles. It can handle all the elements while remaining light and easy to transport. The buckles are super heavy duty and can adjust to wrap around large and small bases, with crisscross webbing on the back for easy attachment. Just one hour of sunlight beaming down on the panels produces up to 30 minutes of laptop run time. The 60 Watt Hours battery, at its fullest capacity can fully charge a smartphone up to 8 times! The compact panel also zips open to reveal a padded sleeve for precious cargo and plenty of pockets for small pieces, like the 9 standard laptop adapters that are included with the charger. The Fuse is so soft, comfortable, and easy, you may forget you're carrying it!

"Wedding Paper Divas is a fantastic company! I ordered my wedding invitations and response cards from them and they look amazing!! They were delivered fast, they actually arrived before the expected date and were packaged very professionally. They have a designer look over everything before they're printed and they tell you if any corrections need to be made. I would definitely recommend Wedding Paper Divas to anyone looking for quality products at an affordable price. I love that you can order extra envelopes!"
"We opted for cashmere pink, bracket trim and no design on the back. Beautiful compliment to the matching invitation. Print and paper are great quality."
"Colors were updated to grey to match color scheme and menu options were replaced with wedding festivities (after-party, brunch) for guests to indicate attendance too. Very satisfied overall except for some minor bleeding of grey from back of card to front but only on a small number of cards"
"It took me a long time to decide on invitations and once I had seen these they were a must have. They turned out gorgeous. I loved how I got to proof everything to make sure that it was exactly how I wanted. The foil is the perfect touch to these invitations. They definitely leave a last impression. I am more than happy with how everything turned out"
"The paper quality is great and I removed the meal choices and the card still looked awesome. With the design teams help, they were able to replace some of the writing in order to make the card look full."
