How much space should be open below a floating vanity?
We will have a 6 foot vanity between 2 walls. I plan for the counter to be at 36" because we are tall and want to maximize storage. I had planned on a 2 cm (3/4") counter, 30" high cabinet (all drawers), with a toe kick area just over 5" tall. I am thinking about doing away with the toe kick to create a floating vanity, but is 5" between the bottom of the cabinet and the floor enough? I want the proportion to look right and to be able to get my steam mop under the cabinet, but I do not want to lose too much storage, so having 10" + open below the cabinet is not an option. If 5" is not enough, then what about 7" or 8"?
modern bathroom design by san francisco interior designer Sullivan Design Studio
If I'm building a cabinet for someone like you who wants the appearance of floating but with a traditional toe kick height, I'll simply make the toe kick deeper.
How deep can depend on the size of the room. But if for example it's recessed 10" to 12", it gives the appearance of a floating unit as it's recessed enough to not be seen with normal sight lines, and by not being a true floater (full depth but only 5" high) it's not dust-bunny haven under there.
A 7" or 8" toe kick on a true floater is fine.
Not sure of the overall look you're going after, but lighting under a floater can be a nice detail too. Either as accent lighting or as a night light.
Because there was no other storage on our bathroom, I had to maximize the size of the vanity. So we left 6". Also added lighting underneath it.
The more space you leave, the more the 'floating' effect.
In another bathroom we will not have a vanity at all. Just a slab of floating wood counter.
Mongoct, that's a good idea to just do a deeply recessed toekick to simplify cleaning if we stay with just 5" below the vanity. The room the vanity will be in is 6' x 6' (the shower and toilet area is separated by a pocket door). The look I am going for is clean and modern, but still tranquil and spa like. I will consider the under-cabinet lighting.
Pharoah, thank you for posting that picture of your gorgeous vanity. I love your wood grain. It is very helpful to see pictures and know the measurements. I am afraid I will not get the look I am going for with less than 6".
I can probably reduce my drawer section to 28" to get 7" below. I was originally planning on having 5" toekick drawers to store the scale, extra boxes of toothpaste and lens solution, etc., so I am really reducing my storage a bit to get a look if I go this way. Form vs. function is a constant battle. I am doing a wall hung toilet in the adjoining room, but that gives me both form and function as it will be easier to clean around and the in-wall tank frees up floor space in a not-large room.

Pampas grass from seed ?
New to grasses - I bought some Pampas grass seed that says it will get about 20 ft tall - anyone grow this variety? I would like to plant it along the privacy fence to block neighbors view. I'm starting the seeds today. Anyone know the growth rate of this grass and how tall it may get this season? Also - since this will be in my backyard - do the blades of this grass cut skin readily - I have a 2 and 5 year old. I hate getting cut by grass!!!!!!!!
I guess I won't be growing any seed today!!! I opened the packet and there was no seed!!!!! I called the company and she said she would replace it - how funny. She actually told me the first year the grass would get about 1 foot, then next year it would grow very large.
I've never heard of any ornamental grass, including Cortaderia (Pampas Grass), reaching 20 feet in height.
In your climate, Pampas Grass should reach at least 7-8 feet, after growing for 3-4 years. It may not, however, be winter hardy in your zone. I think I some cultivars of Cortaderia are hardy to zone 6, but you might have to look for hardier varieties.
Try the link below, for grasses that are specific to colder zones.
Here is a link that might be useful: Bluestem
Hi need4nature,
Everybody has a different opinion about how hardy Cortaderia is, but it's pretty unlikely that it will survive the winter in z5. If you want the most similar z5 hardy grass, get Saccharum ravennae (Erianthus r.), Hardy Pampas Grass.
Good luck,
It certainly gets to near 20 feet here in New Zealand, including flower stems. It grows very easily from seed, so much so that it is a banned plant with serious weed potential. Seeds can germinate 20 miles away from nearest plant, so germination must be easy. It grows everywhere in NZ, but the coldest possible places here are about zone 7, so cant comment on your z5.
The leaf margins are extremely sharp when rubbed in towards the plant, I got a few nasty cuts as a child. I wouldn't let my children play around any (ages 1,3,5).
The other problemw with this plant are that it spreads about as wide as it is high, unless eaten by animals or controlled mechnaically. It also produces a lot of dead material, harbouring rodents and creating a fire risk.

Five years ago I used to program in SAS. Since then I've been doing software QA of various types. Mostly manual (video games + web apps) testing with a tiny bit of automation.
I'd really like to shift careers back into programming. Specifically the Android platform has caught my attention. These are the books I've been reading and working through.
- Learning Java, Third Edition - O'Reilly
- Beginning Android 2 - Mark Murphy
- Hello, Android - Ed Burnette
However, I think I need something that looks at programming from a less language dependent standpoint. Something that takes a bird's eye view if that makes sense.
It's very easy to see how particular functions work, but I'm looking to get a better sense of how all the pieces fit together. How does one split up an app into individual classes and packages? Do I have a method in main that shuffles my deck of cards (object) or does the class deck of cards have a method I can call to shuffle itself?
I think I'm looking for a book on object oriented design?
I've also been working through the tutorials and examples at http://developer.android.com/resources/index.html and also in the three books I've been reading so far.
Maybe I just need to spend more time coding though?

I've got a problem where I've got loads of child pages, and 1 main page that houses these subpages. The problem with that, being that the experience the application is trying to deliver needs to be nice and unified.
I have a menu that targets the iFrame to open URLs there, and I've got a bit of JS
parent.document.title = document.title;
that changes the parent's title, but one more thing I want to try and do, is to change the URL, similar to how Facebook does. If I'm on a friend's profile, the top and bottom bars don't move, but in Facebook's case it's an Ajax load - and the profile shows, and the URL changes to their profile ID without actually shifting from 1 page to another.
I've read in a couple of places that the parent.document.url value is read only to child frames, but I'm not very sure and this is something I've wanted to do for a while now!
Summarizing: Is there any way to change the parent's URL through a child iFrame? Similar to the code pasted above?
Thank You! Much appreciation for any answers :)

What changes can you make to be more effective at making and releasing disciples?
Are we making disciples surrendered to Christ and His Lordship? Though very few concrete statistics on our overall effectiveness currently exist, itŌĆÖs difficult to argue in the affirmative.
What then can we do to get better at the Great Commission? Based on his considerable experience with starting churches from disciple-making small groups, Real Life Ministries founder Jim Putman has identified five paradigm shifts church leaders can make to become better at accomplishing the mission of the church. We asked him and Dave Ferguson, who also leads the church-planting network NewThing, and Community Christian Church in Chicago, to help unpack each shift and its potential impact.
Shift 1: From Reaching to Making
The first paradigm shift moves churches from defining ourselves by what we do to what we actually accomplish, Putman says. ŌĆ£We need to shift our focus from reaching people with the gospel in an effort to convert them to making disciples.ŌĆØ
Making this shift requires us to agree on the definition of what a mature disciple is, someone who Ferguson says is ŌĆ£apprenticing in the ways of Jesus.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£As humans, we know what a mature person ends up looking like and doing. What does a mature disciple look like then?ŌĆØ Putman asks, adding that often, church leaders donŌĆÖt define it for their peopleŌĆöwhich in turn gives each person carte blanche to come up with his or her own definition. ŌĆ£This is a real problem if we are going to be a team that works together to complete the mission of Christ. We need to ask the question together as a body.ŌĆØ
Shift 2: From Teaching to Modeling
This shift calls for leaders to change their focus from preaching/teaching (informing) to modeling and coaching (equipping). Too many church leaders today equate discipleship with imparting knowledge.
Putman points out that Jesus discipled people in relationship, not in preaching to thousands of people. ŌĆ£I used to be a teacher and coach,ŌĆØ he says. ŌĆ£Teachers know that the larger the classroom, the more youŌĆÖre forced to lecture and the less learning. Why is it that every good teacher would hate what every pastor thinks they want?ŌĆØ
Ferguson agrees, adding that the job of leadership is not to just get up on Sunday and talk about following Jesus. ŌĆ£I have to be apprenticed in the ways of Jesus and bring people alongside me and apprentice them in the same way. ThatŌĆÖs how you get people who are on mission.ŌĆØ
Shift 3: From Attending to Participating
This third shift challenges leaders to shift their mindset from discipleship as a program in their church that people attend to discipleship as the center and purpose of everything the church is and does, Putman explains. He adds that leaders must let people know that discipleship is dependent on participating in the endless process of following Christ.
Ferguson simplifies things: ŌĆ£We start to transition our thinking from discipleship as a class or program we attend on the weekend or one night a week to something every believer actively participates in Monday through Sunday.ŌĆØ
Shift 4: From Connecting to Transforming
This shift calls for churches to move their paradigms from activity-based to relationship-based. Beyond just classes and sermons, discipleship must be based on friendship and time together. To cultivate the kind of disciples Jesus did, we have to shift our paradigm from activity and surface connections to deep, accountable relationships.
Putman also refers to this shift as the ŌĆ£alignmentŌĆØ piece: Everything in a church must be shifted to divert the focus from activity and align it with relationships (for discipleship).
Shift 5: From Attracting to Deploying
The final shift helps churches define, articulate and implement a new scorecard for success that celebrates and places more emphasis on the release of an army of ministers and priests into a lost and hurting world than on how many people we attract to our services.
ŌĆ£If weŌĆÖre honest, we know weŌĆÖre celebrating many of the wrong things,ŌĆØ Putman says. ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm all for numbers of converts, but those arenŌĆÖt the right numbers alone. We should be counting and asking the question, How many disciples have I made who can make disciples without me?ŌĆØ
The 2013 Exponential conference theme, DiscipleShift, will explore in-depth what it means to be a disciple and how we can continue to improve at engaging people with the mission of Jesus. Exponential will be held April 22-25 in Orlando, Fla.
Lindy Lowry serves as the general editor of Ministry Today and editor for Exponential.

It is usually connected to the computer tower using a special cable that contains small screws which are twisted to ensure a tight connection.
Types of Computer Peripherals
Personal computers have advanced to the point where they can do millions or even billions of calculations per second. Yet, they are virtually useless without an assortment of peripheral devices. These additions are connected to the computer in some way, yet are not part of the computer's core. Dozens of computer peripherals exist, though only a handful are considered vital to the machine's functionality.
The mouse device is used primarily to move the on-screen cursor, allowing the user to click confirmation boxes, access icons on the screen and select groups of text for cutting, pasting or other duties. A mouse can connect to the computer core through a hard-wire cord. It also can be connected wirelessly by using an adapter which plugs into the computer via a USB adapter and sends signals to the mouse, allowing it to work without a cord.
The keyboard allows the user to input text which can be used to instruct the computer to complete any number of tasks. English-language keyboards come complete with the full alphabet and number set, with special characters available to those who might need to add accents or other features to their text. Modern keyboards also come equipped with special buttons located outside the normal keys that control email function, volume and the computer's main media player. Like mouse devices, keyboards are connected either through a hard wire or via a USB adapter.
The printer isn't considered a critical computer peripheral, but is useful for its ability to allow the user to print out important documents. Modern printers have the ability to also make photocopies, scan copies of documents into the computer or send faxes. Printers use elaborate connectors similar to the ones employed by monitors, though certain models also can be connected wirelessly through the installation of the proper device drivers.
Webcams allow users to take pictures or videos of themselves and transmit them onto their computers. Webcams have the ability to broadcast live to other users through online video sites or chat rooms. Webcams connect through a hard wire or through a wireless connection via a USB adapter. In some modern laptop and netbook computers, small webcams are built into the top of the screen.
External speakers give the user a more complete listening experience---foregoing a reliance on a computer's internal speakers, which don't carry sound well. These devices are ideal for those who want to listen to music, movies or video game effects on their computer without having to make do with the internal speakers, or plugging in a set of headphones. Speakers can be connected either directly into the computer's casing, or through a sub-woofer, a device which produces low bass frequencies.

What usually happens is that if you get VAC banned playing a game on a certain engine, you get VAC banned for all games using that engine. So for example, if you hack on CS 1.6 and get VAC banned, you would still be able to play on non-VAC servers as the parent rightly said, but you would be banned from playing on VAC-secured servers in CS 1.6 and all other GoldSrc multiplayer games. You would still be able to play on VAC-secured servers for games on the newer Source engine though (CSS, TF2, L4D etc)

"Summertime Bubblegum...chewable"
Dan Brown novels are not high literary masterpieces, nor do I think that's why anyone reads them.
If you are looking for mild escapism peddling through a predictable (sorry) story that pretty much follows the same Dan Brown outline of his previous Robert Langdon novels, then you'll enjoy it, much like rediscovering a pair of lost, but comfortable shoes after a couple months.
The narration was so-so ... I've heard better and I've heard worse ... and some of his vocal characterizations, made only worse by very wooden language on the part of Mr. Brown, would make me cringe, but after awhile, you get over it.
I think my biggest pet peeve of this book is the dialogue. Stilted, wooden, I'm actually surprised as to how poor it was, or how lazy Mr. Brown was in its construction. It really turns the characters into archetypes -- perhaps they're real people, but all that gets through is the veneer of any of them.
BUT...it's a summer listen, and like I did, if you're in need of something while walking a stretch of beach, this will do, and it won't tax your mind greatly,

Basil Fawlty is an inept and manic English hotel owner and manager who isn't cut out for his job. He's intolerant, rude and paranoid. Chaos frequently breaks loose as Basil tries to run the hotel. He is constantly under verbal (and sometime physical) attack from his unhelpful wife Sybil, and hindered by the incompetent, but easy target, Manuel, the Spanish waiter. Fortunately he has an intelligent and attractive maid to help him out of the various situations he gets into.

Chasing Birds from Orchard
The birds, specifically the red-bellied woodpeckers, are going to end up getting more William's Pride apples than I do. What is the most effective means of keeping them out of the trees? I have neighbors quite close, so loud noises are not a good option. Thanks for any advice. Ted
For the past few years, I have tied old shiny computer discs to the fruiting trees - apricot, plum, apple - along with partially deflated mylar baloons. The balloons dance and move with the slightest breeze, and the discs spin and emit flashing lights if the sun can shine on them. This has been quite successful, although my greatest predator this year has been squirrels, both ground and gray types.
We managed, however, to harvest most of our fruit, except for the almonds, which the squirrels eat, even though the seed kernels weren't ripened
I am hoping that the ground burrowing critters will not find the young tree roots.
Good luck.
in addition to mylar shiny stuff I've added aluminum pan lids from party supply store - their retangular, extremely cheap, like 50 cents each, and blow in the wind easy. i put several on a pole so they hit each other. Shiny and random sound but not enough to trouble neighbors. Managed to keep 90% of my blueberries this year. Also did the mylar balloons-about 1.50 ea and blow in the wind even if deflated.

John Allen on the SSPXThursday, March 19th, 2015
I think he overlooks a few of the complexities, but agree with him on the three points as to why reunion was not going to happen. It seems Pope Benedict counted on an outpouring of grace through the lifting of the excommunications and the promulgation of Summorum Pontificum. As Universal Shepherd he did his job.

Slain Toddler's Mom Pleads Guilty To Charges
The mother of a 1-year-old Maryland boy found dead in central Ohio has pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and tampering with evidence.
Listen to the Story
Cities are made up of people as well as the streets and buildings they create. And as people develop personalities all their own, cities come to have an image and style of their own as well.
New York is the "Big Apple" and New Orleans is the "Big Easy." Chicago is the "Windy City" and Denver is the "Mile High City."
Ohio cities are no exception to this tendency to try to identify themselves with a simple phrase from the past the town has shared or the future it would like to see. Cincinnati is the "Queen City." Cleveland is the "Forest City" and, of course, Columbus is the "Capital City."
All of these nicknames conjure up a certain image of the place they describe. When I think of New York, I think of the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building. When I think of Cincinnati, Fountain Square comes to mind as does the Terminal Tower when Cleveland is considered. And of course, in Columbus, there is always the Statehouse.
Every city has an image – both to the people who live there and to the people who see it from a distance. And that image is often more than a single building or person or place.
Consider Columbus. Ohio's Capital City is not only the home of the Statehouse. The Ohio State University is here and is actually something of a city in its own right. Its sports teams have an international reputation as does the Memorial Tournament in Dublin. Central Ohio has produced a number of notable people and enterprises and shows every sign of continuing to do so.
But what sometimes is not remembered is that as cities grow and change, so too do their images. The Columbus of today is certainly a far cry from what it was in 1812 when a tiny village came into being to be the capital of one of America's newer states.
Over those almost two hundred years, Columbus has had a variety of nicknames and presented itself to the world in a variety of ways.
It might be instructive to look back at a few of them.
When Columbus was brought into being by the Ohio Legislature in 1812, the place where it was platted was called "The High Banks" or Wolf's Ridge" because wolves serenaded early settlers in the area. Frontier Franklinton had been founded across the Scioto River in 1797 and was actually larger than Columbus until well after the end of the War of 1812.
James Monroe was the first President to visit Columbus. When he passed through in 1816, he called the village of several hundred people an "infant city."
Over the next several decades, Columbus became a center of transportation and trade. Occasionally called the "Metropolis of central Ohio", it was more often referred to simply as the "capital city."
The late 1800′s were a time of rapid change in Columbus and indeed across most of the Midwest as the Industrial Revolution transformed America. In this age of immigration and urbanization, cities vied with each other for new businesses, new residents and for larger and large pieces of the prosperity pie.
It was in this era that Columbus became the "Arch City." During an 1888 convention of Union Army veterans in Columbus, elaborate wooden arches lit by gaslights had been built through the downtown. Eventually they would be replaced by metal arches lit by electricity. The arches provided street lighting and power to a new generation of electrified streetcars and lasted until the early part of the Twentieth Century.
In more recent years, Columbus has had a number of other nicknames.
In the years after World War II, it was briefly called the "Col-Met" or "Columbus Metropolitan" area.
In 1958, the city won a prestigious "All-America City" award from the then-popular Look Magazine. The name caught on and Columbus called itself an "All- America" city for quite some time.
One nickname that is tried with almost predictable regularity is the "Discovery City". Attempts to link central Ohio with new world explorer Christopher Columbus have never been all that successful.
In recent years, the City has tried of a number of different approaches to image and identity, but none have caught on as well or lasted as long as "Arch City" did a century ago.
With new arches marching up High Street in the Short North and scattered elsewhere around the city as well, perhaps we should simply start calling Columbus the "Arch City" once again.
It might be intriguing to see if it catches on.
