The next 35 years of networking require a new architecture that can maintain the accepted services such as the Web as well as innovative new services that haven't yet been deployed. Increased federal funding for network and broadband telecommunications research, including sectoral research consortia, small-scale research teams and large-scale testbeds will be instrumental in bringing about the new Internet architecture.

Another LED under cabinet question - Help
I am planning my kitchen renovation. I have a run of cabinet which I am planning for LED under cabinet lighting. I have two - 30" cabinets, two - 33" cabinets, and one 12" cabinets. What size LED lights are appropriate for these size cabinets? Thanks for your help.
I have no under cabinet lighting now. I am very excited about having LED under cab lighting in this renovation. I have been looking at the Kirchler lights which are mounted to the front of the cabinets. The longest box is 18", is that big enough for a 30" cabinet or do I need to link a 6" with it to make it a total of 24"?
I used the longest possible light bars that would fit because I did not want "breaks" in the lights. For a 33" cabinet, I linked a 24" and a 6" bar, and then it was a tight squeeze to place the hole where the wire had to go up thru the cabinet, or thru the bridge to the other cabinet. I do have one 36" cabinet that I still just used 30" of lights, but there is a dimmer switch on the end. For 15" cabs I used 12" lights.
The on/off/dimmer switch is 2", so I allowed for those at the end of each run.I got my lights thru environmentallights.com and absolutely love them!
Here is a link that might be useful: the dimmer switch I used
I'm writing to share a trick for using flexible LED strips for under-cabinet lighting. The problem I was having is that you see reflection of every single LED light on the counter if you have a polished stone countertop. The idea is to create a rail to mount to the under-cabinet that angles the light toward the backslash and slightly up. It creates nice even light and eliminates the reflection of individual LEDs on the countertop...
I had my local heating-duct supply store bend a strip of galvanized sheet metal: long enough for the run of lights by 2-1/2 inches wide. This is bent along its length at a 60 degree angle - with 1.5' (3.5cm) on one side and 5/8' (1.6cm) on the other. (The profile looks like a check mark.) Spray paint the whole thing flat black-to absorb reflections further. The 1.5' part is attached horizontally to under-cabinet - with the 5/8' part furthest from the back-splash and about 9 inches from the backsplash. The LED light strip is attached to the 5/8' part so it faces the backsplash (and slightly up). Looks a something like this in profile installed:
I used this product http://www.ledlightsworld.com/smd-3528-flexible-led-strips-300-leds-p-90.html warm light (3000-3500), waterproof surface injection (IP65), background white - comes with 3M adhesive on back. They ship express from China, and I found them to be reliable and responsive. They also have a range of UL-listed transformers - (it's a 12V DC application) and connectors. If you want tons of light they sell a strip with twice the LED density (600/5 meter reel)-but also twice the price. I found the the 300 to be plenty of usable light in an already well-lit kitchen.

New wisteria! Need advice
Hi all,
I'm new to wisteria and bonsai in general. I bit the bullet today and purchased a Wisteria Macrostachya "Blue Moon", attached is a picture of my pre-bonsai specimen!
I live in zone 8, what should I do (if anything) to prune this guy back? I want to thicken up the trunk but I fear putting it in the ground. Could I repot it into a large pot? Would this encourage trunk growth?
It's interesting, on the end of the longest growth, it almost looked like the plant had flowered recently although I can't be sure as I don't know what that would look like. There are a bunch of protrusions that looked like there should have been flowers there. Who knows, maybe it hasn't flowered and it will soon? I can provide a picture soon!
Also, if anyone has any general advice on wisteria bonsai, I would greatly appreciate any advice given.
Yes the picture you posted is that of a spent flower stalk - Plant in a large container that will give the roots plenty of room to extend for several years and place the container in partial shade. This allows the trunk and branches of the wisteria to get thick. When the wisteria is older and thickened move to a traditional bonsai pot
Usually you can be quite severe with pruning with most varieties - not sure about the one you have though

Feeling like these are the only flowers I'm not allergic to right now :/
wayne bremser, perfect.tommy, and 8 other people added this photo to their favorites.
This is a lovely photo. Glad you not allergic to them. They are gorgeous roses.
heidi, i can't get enough of your polaroids. it's like you invented the genre.
Uggh allergies can be awful, I get them too. Have you tried zyrtec? It works for me. Hope you find relief soon!
the tones here are really something, heidi.
Heh, hardly Christopher, but thanks ;) So fun to shoot.
And thanks for the rec Heather. When my allergies get unbearable, I take Benadryl, but I'm not sure how effective it is for me - and I end up feeling sleepy/drowsy all day. A couple other people have recommended Zyrtec, but I haven't tried it yet.
Thanks for the nice words Brian and Raina - hope you both have a great weekend. Always looking forward to what you both have to share.
Heidi, these film shots are just so gorgeous! If you put all of your film photos into a book and published it, I'd be one of the first people to jump up and buy several copies!
As for your allergies, I know how you feel. I used to get them a lot, but now, it seems like I am the only one who doesn't get them. I hope you find something that actually works. :)
Have a Happy Easter! :)
such a delicate, quiet photo. i always enjoy visiting you here.
Gorgeous composition and shading! (I'm a fan from your blog--hello there.)
For me, Zyrtec helps a lot on those sniffly/ itchy days. It's off patent now so it can be pricey, but you might be able to find a small amount (10 pills or so) to try out. Best of luck!

I dont listen to this kind of music but on the radio I thought Outkast - The way you move was "I love the man in you" Kinda fits for that kind of music

LC, G-Prep make state
Tigers, Bullpups produce banner day for GSL
Long dominated on the mound by teams to the south, Spokane squads did their best to erase that history Saturday as Gonzaga Prep won twice and Lewis and Clark once to send both Greater Spokane League 4A schools to the state tournament's round of 16.
After losing the district championship game last week to LC's Tigers, G-Prep's Bullpups had the long road. But they beat the Richland Bombers 9-5 in the first game Saturday and later trounced Walla Walla 13-4 after LC had earlier beaten the Blue Devils 4-1 to advance.
"It was a great day for Spokane, period," Gonzaga Prep coach Brian Munhall said. "You will have to go deep in the record books (1992) to find where there wasn't a Tri-Cities team not in the round of 16."
In the first of three games at Hart Field, pitcher Justin Blatner kept Richland in check for five innings and left with a 6-0 lead. Relief pitcher Cael McKeirnan came in and struggled, giving up four runs in the top of the sixth inning.
But the Bullpups rallied for three runs in the bottom of the sixth and Steven Machtolf came on in relief to finish off the Bombers and advance to the 4 p.m. state-qualifying game.
In the 1 p.m. game, Lewis and Clark's Ethan LaValley threw a complete-game gem and his teammates played loose as the Tigers beat Walla Walla.
"Ethan threw great," Tigers coach Steve Bennett said. "He kept them off balance and pitched out of jams."
Lewis and Clark got started early when Cal Webb's grounder scored Anthony Coballes in the bottom of the first inning.
Cole Beemer then scored on Hunter Lee's infield hit to give the Tigers all the runs they would need.
In the fourth inning, Coballes hit a grounder that scored the third run. The next batter, Beemer, grounded to the pitcher, who overthrew first base to allow another run to score.
"I think we know with the way we play, that we are going to have a chance to win," Bennett said. "We are not finished yet."
The Tigers, the region's No. 1 seed, now heads to Yakima next Saturday to play in a pod of four teams.
Gonzaga Prep's second victory of the day was led by the brothers Machtolf.
Despite throwing an inning in the first game, Munhall sent Steven Machtolf out to start the late game. He came through on the mound while his brother, Jack, used his bat to crush Walla Walla.
Jack, a sophomore, drove in G-Prep's first run with a single that scored Rhett Larson. Steven, a senior, then put down a bunt and a throwing error allowed his younger brother to score. Mason Kuebler then hit a run-scoring double to give G-Prep a 3-0 lead.
Walla Walla tied the score at 3 in the bottom of the fourth with the aid of two Bullpups errors. But the tie only lasted until the Machtolfs could come up again.
After the Bullpups scored a run on an error, Jack Machtolf smashed a two-run homer to right over the 313-foot sign. Steven Machtolf then hit a ball that probably went further, but stayed inside and was caught near 369-foot mark in left center.
The game was halted in top of the sixth inning when Justin Blatner hit a line drive that struck the face of Walla Walla pitcher Zach Zehner. Emergency crews responded. He walked off on his own power but was transported as a precaution.
The ball hit more on his eyebrow than his temple, Munhall said.
"They said he was alert and talking," he said. "It stops your heart and puts things in perspective."
After play resumed, both Machtolfs had two-run hits, putting Gonzaga Prep up 12-3.
Munhall sent Connor Cherry in to relieve Steven and finish off the win.
Gonzaga, the No. 2 seed out of the region, now heads to four-team pod in Tacoma to play on Saturday.

Oprah's Lifeclass:
How to Tell Whether You're in a Relationship
According to Greg Behrendt and Amiira Ruotola, authors of the book It's Just a F***ing Date, too many relationships today can be described as "tweet, tweet, sleep over, break up." But does that mean you're really dating? Watch to find out why Greg and Amiira say many women speed through the dating process to get clarity on the status of their relationships—lowering their standards along the way.

"Totally agree, all arguments you mentioned point to success of METEOR, my slight concern is a dose (60 mg)"
You're going to have to trust me on this because I don't think its published or archived anywhere. Dr Toni Choueri was the lead investigator for the original RCC trial. I recall him commenting on the dose issue. By the time the RCC trial was initiated, the investigators were aware of the prior dosing and tolerability issues. His comment was that the trial protocol called for 100mg, but also allowed for titration to a lower dose, so those rules were generously interpreted and he left the impression that patients were immediately titrated lower before tolerability became a problem.
The RCC Cabo ph 1 had only 25 patients. The topline result was PFS of 13 months and OS of 15 months. For comparison, in its registrational frontline study, Sutent had PFS of 11 months, but OS was 26 months. The 13 month PFS enjoyed by the Cabo patients looks a bit suspect to me, especially considering the apparently short survival following progression. I just wish we had a larger sample size to consider. All said, while I don't expect the Meteor result to mirror the phase 1 experience, improving on the Afinitor 5 month standard is a relatively low hurdle. We'll see soon enough.
"PFS was a secondary endpoint and visceral data and time to SRE are at most exploratory."
I have to agree. Cabo is a nonstarter in CRPC. The visceral mets data is at best informative for a future trial. If I remember correctly, only about 30% of patients present with visceral mets, so the commercial opportunity is a fraction of that sought with the Comets. The SRE data is also interesting, but if EXEL wants to present Cabo as a bone drug, it is a long road and rather than comparing those results vs an abi control it would be more appropriate to make comparisons to XGeva and Alpharadin. The overall HR=.90 is consistent or marginally better than those seen with other VEGF inhibitors tested in CRPC (Sutent and Avastin). Factor in the failure of Comet 2 and it further degrades the argument for a benefit not captured in the survival data.
Though disappointing, the results are still informative. RCC will sink or swim based on PFS with the proviso that OS is not negatively impacted. Two phase 3 trials (Exam and now Comet 1) have demonstrated highly significant improvements in PFS with numeric (but nonsignificant) improvement in OS. Granted, Meteor has an active comparator (Afinitor), which showed a 5 month PFS in its registrational study. However, recently published evidence shows that sequential VEGF TKI's achieve a superior result to Afinitor. My opinion is that the recent run up is attributable to positive expectations for the Meteor analysis which is either ongoing or soon to start.

Lenten Greetings
On Wednesday, February 18th, 2015 the St. Alphonsus School community went to Mary, Mother of the Redeemer Church to celebrate Ash Wednesday. It was our first visit as a school community this year and it went really well. Father Ugo and Deacon Ron were both very welcoming and provided great context to the meaning of Ash Wednesday and the Church's teaching. Thank you to Ms. Riegel for her work with the choir, Mrs. Arcuri's Grade 2 class and Mrs. Stone's Grade 3 class for their work, making this a meaningful and memorable experience.
On Wednesday, February 25th, 2015 the school united against bullying by Wearing Pink. The slogan for this day is "The Pink Shirt says enough". Students and staff were encouraged to wear pink as a show of force to end bullying in our society. This same message is also delivered nationally on April 8th, 2015 with "Day of Pink". The focus is for workplaces, institutions of learning and society to support this cause in the home, place of work, the grocery store and wherever you may travel on that day.
The St. Alphonsus School will be holding our annual "Day in the Life" on Friday, March 6th, 2015. We will be hosting potential Grade 7 students who are currently in Grade 6 that are interested in attending St. Alphonsus School in the fall of 2015. During this time our current Junior High students will be at Cardel Place participating in an Activity Day. A special thank you to all staff for their work on hosting a happy, safe and successful event. On that note, if you are aware of any families who may be interested in attending St. Alphonsus for Junior High who live within our geographical area, please have them contact our office directly.
A HUGE thank you and accolades to our Italian teachers under the leadership of Miss Stagliano and to our parent volunteers who made our Carnevale an overwhelming success. The morning explained the significance of Carnevale in the Italian Culture and the afternoon provided a flurry of Italian Culture activities.
Progress reports will be sent home on Friday, March 13th 2015. Parent Teacher conferences will take place on Thursday, March 19th from 4:30 pm until 7:30 pm and Friday, March 20th from 8:30am until 2pm.

Hi, my name is Anna. As an orphan, I grew up in Hungary in a foster home. At a very young age I was already exposed to music. It kind of blew me away. I didn't know how something could be so beautiful, and it was like a miracle for me. Then and there, I knew that something special was waiting for me ahead. When I was 3, I didn't talk for a long time, but I did do one thing: sing. At that point my life has totally changed. I began my long journey. My foster parents got me in to a music school, called Janos Patzay Music School. I knew immediately what I wanted to be. I built my whole life on music. It always filled up a very special place in my heart,it still does, and it always will. I started to learn the violin when I was 5 years old. Being in a music environment always gave me strength,

Captain Phillips
From the critics

CommentAdd a Comment
This film is one big lie. Read what the crew say really happened & what a "nice guy" Phillips is.
Tom Hanks once more proves to be an exceptional actor. This true story really grips you and the intensely emotional ending had me in tears. A must see!
Despite my ongoing "Tom Hanks fatigue" and the Hollywood hyperbole surrounding the actual facts of the case, I still found this idealized account of the 2009 highjacking of an American cargo ship by desperate Somali pirates one of the more riveting actioners I've seen in quite some time. Sailing around the horn of Africa en route to Mombassa laden with heavy equipment and humanitarian supplies the Maersk Alabama, captained by New Englander Richard Phillips, finds itself boarded by a pack of armed men intent on taking over the ship and holding both it and the crew for ransom. What follows is a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse as Phillips bargains with the already agitated posse's deadly serious leader while his hidden crew wage a war of sabotage against their kidnappers. But once the U.S. Navy gets involved with their "no hostages" mandate the stakes suddenly go from precarious to downright lethal. With quick editing, a pounding score, and cameras in perpetual motion, director Paul Greengrass' high seas thriller moves effortlessly between wide ocean vistas and glaring blue skies to interior shots of metal rat mazes and broiling engine rooms—a tense stint aboard a bobbing lifeboat will have some reaching for the dramamine. But it is the psychological standoff between Phillips and pirate leader Muse (newcomer Barkhad Abdi deserving his Oscar nod) that propels the story forward. Refusing to demonize his antagonists, yet offering little sympathy, Greengrass presents them as beleaguered serfs propping up their courage with mild narcotics and watching their ill-gotten gains go to feed the coffers of local warlords. Captain Phillips on the other hand is a staunch middle class family man who nevertheless senses the moral ambivalence in Muse and, in the end, tries to prevent the bloodbath he fears is approaching. A taut and suspenseful piece of moviemaking…but if you're hoping for a factual documentary you best look elsewhere.
Don't know if I can say enough good things about this film. It is Tom Hanks' masterpiece. So skillfully filmed and magnificently portrayed. Although of course no fictionalized version of a true event from Hollywood can ever give the entire story, the viewer can easily believe that the facts are pretty well represented by this film, and the laudable character of Cpt. Phillips is portrayed accurately. I highly recommend this film. Not only is it highly entertaining in an edge-of-your-seat kind of way, but the events as they played out are fascinating.
Very suspenseful yet entertaining.
This movie shed a lot more light on the events surrounding the Maersk Alabama hijacking.
Tom Hanks gives a remarkable performance as Captain Richard Phillips of the U.S. flagged ship the Maersk Alabama. Somali pirates take control of his ship with only Tom Hanks on the bridge of the ship. The rest of the crew is hiding far down in the engine room. The movie centers on Tom Hanks as the captain and the Somali pirates. With subtitles we learn what they are saying to one another. They seem ruthless, yet Captain Phillips (Hanks) seems calm and using every diversion he knows to keep the pirates from his crew. It is so suspenseful that it will have you glued to your chair. A five star movie from start to finish!
Oh my gosh! An incredible movie with oscar worthy performances.
Tom Hanks did a straight up outstanding performance as Captain Richard Philips. Highly recommend it!
Much better than I expected. Already being familiar with the much-publicized real-life story, I wasn't sure I would enjoy this film, but I did. Tom Hanks does a great job as the title character and the film manages to create a lot of suspenseful moments, even if you already know the story.

Jesse Eisenberg Pens Holocaust Play
The 'To Rome With Love' actor has completed a play about the Holocaust.
By: Ashley Baylen
Jesse Eisenberg achieved international fame after his portrayal of Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, in David Fincher's 'The Social Network'. Over the last couple years, Eisenberg has been featured in several plays, readings, and feature films, all garnering critical acclaim. Now, the actor has announced the completion of "The Revisionist", a play focused around the Holocaust.
"The Revisionist" will open at New York City's Cherry Lane Theatre (Off Broadway) in 2012, according to the Times of Israel. Eisenberg has not yet revealed whether he will appear in his work.
Not many details have been released about the characters or plot. However, we do know that "The Revisionist" will follow a science fiction writer that travels to Poland and meets with a relative who survived the Holocaust and has a deep, hidden secret.
"The Revisionist" marks Eisenberg's second Off-Broadway play; the first being "Asuncion", which was well received Off-Broadway last year.
Eisenberg currently stars in Woody Allen's "To Rome With Love" alongside Allen himself, Alec Baldwin, and Ellen Paige.

cedar siding flashing
I am building a new house and I have installed Pella windows over Tyvek. I would like to add 1x4 cedar trim around my windows, and bring my cedar clapboard down to the 1x4 trim. My question is, where the siding comes down and meets the top 1x4, does that get caulked or do I have to use a metal flashing. I've been told that it is ok to do either way, is this true?
The flashing at the top of the trim MUST be metal or PVC and preformed in a Z shape. Don't let anyone tell you that sealant is appropriate in this location; it is not. The Tyvek should already be cut so that it overlaps the Pella nailing fin. If it isn't, take the window out and start over using Tyvek's instructions.
This is a forum for off-topic discussions. You will get more responses on the Building A Home forum.

'Homemade' Elevator in residence.
Please don't shoot the messenger!
Friend has added a "Homemade" elevator in his home. He made a small car out of steel, without door & a electric winch (3200lb cap, 110v, purchased new just for this job) to drive it.
Winch is secured to basement wall & cable is routed through pulleys to top of car. Top pulley is secured using heavy piece of steel atop of ceiling joists of top floor.
Winch (Warn) a rectifier converts the 110 to I' guessing 12v DC for winch motor. Controller is hand held with momentary switches.
He wants to convert momentary switches to something else so he doesn't have to hold down the button.
As off now this set up doesn't have any safety stops.
I'm thinking a contactor (Double Pole) with DC coil. Run the 110 volt through contactor & continue to use handheld controller to energize coil. Auxiliary contacts in series with limit lever switches would allow elevator to go UP & Down without holding the Control button down & limit lever switches would shut winch down.
But where does Limit switches (LS) need to be. I haven't seen this Master Piece But I'm thinking the Car wobbels going in either direction to much for LS to trip correctly. A split bolt attached to cable could be attached at point that limit LS could stop Up motion. Because there is a length of cable that never winds through pulley or winch drum. And I'm thinking a 2nd LS would also trip for Downward motion.
This is out in county no inspector & homeowner will making connections.
Been a long time since I drew electronic symbols by hand.
But I think you will get the idea I'm trying to illustrate.
A = 3 position toggle switch. on-off-on
B = NC switch (limit switch for going up)
C = NC switch (limit switch for going down)
D = elevator
E = NO SPST relay (controls Up for winch)
F = NO SPST relay (controls Down for winch)
G = Winch
Flip toggle switch up to go up.
When elevator gets to top it opens the limit switch
and cuts power to the relay that controls Up on Winch.
Relay switch opens and winch stops.
When elevator stops flip toggle switch to center off position.
Flip toggle switch down to go down.
When elevator gets to bottom it opens the limit switch
and cuts power to the relay that controls Down on Winch.
Relay switch opens and winch stops.
When elevator stops flip toggle switch to center off position.
Load ratings of winches are often stated using
single line pull, single turn on winch drum,
and with a rolling load. (makes the winch sound stronger).
Use 1/2 to 1/3 of that number to get lifting capacity.
A winch may be able to pull a 12000 pound truck on wheels
but it may only be able to lift 4000 pounds straight up.
Should have went with a hydraulic system.
Pooh Bear
The relays control the high amperage circuit for the winch.
The controls don't need that many amps.
So you save money on running wire to the controls.
You could probably get switches rated for that much power.
But you will pay a lot of $$$$ for them.
Using the relays would be cheaper in the long run.
Pooh Bear
Here is a link that might be useful:
Why not hire an old, unemployed elevator operator (like they had in the 60's)?!?!?
I remember a multi-story department store, Wertheimer's, in Upper Manhattan (NY) while I was growing up. They could have easily "automated" their elevator, ala Macy's downtown...
In that case you may be able to omit the relays. (Disclaimer)
Just make sure the components you use are rated for the power required.
Pooh Bear
Haveing an elivator in your home would be cool but a homemade sounds dangerious. hopefully its not large enough to lift people. I can see how insurance would have some trouble with it then. but for freight or a dumb waiter I don't see much trouble.
This is diffently being used to move adults & small children up & down. My friend said his grandson wasn't strong enough to hold down the existing momentary switches located on Hand Control Unit! ___ Here would be great spot for Flaming Red Flag Symbol!!!
Your fried does realize that winches are NOT rated/designed for vertical usage?
Also what kinds of safety measures are there on this 'elevator'?
My last point, anyone not strong enough to use the manufactures control should NOT being using the winch. ESPECIALLY NOT KIDS! I cannot help but wonder where your friend's brains are.
Your friend is insane! Jason is correct that most winches are not rated for vertical lifting, but some are. Even if your friend used one rated for vert. lifting, if the clutches or winch brake ever wear out , the elevator will free fall causing serious injury or death! I doubt this unit has any type of aux. safety braking to prevent a free fall in the event of winch or cable failure.
Dumbwaiters and elevators not only have upper and lower limit switches, they also have door interlock safeties that will not allow the car to move if the doors are not fully closed.
To tell you haw serious this is...there was a doctor, at a major hospital in Texas, that leaned into an elevator as the doors were closing, the car started to move and he was decapitated with his head landing the car full of people.
The investigation determined an employee with the elevator service comapny had by-passed the door interlocks so he work on the car.
One other thing, I doubt this arrangement would meet any firecode. Can you say open chimney for fire to spread from floor to floor.
If you can not convince your friend to stop this, walk away and save your self a lot of greif and guilt. You and others who have made suggestions here are not doing your friend any favors. Elevators and dumdwaiters should never rely on "backwoods" engineering.
Anything rated for vertical lifting will be marketed as a "hoist"
Here is a link that might be useful: electric hoist
I agree, there's no amount of spin you can put on this to suggest it's anything but a BAD idea, and Tony ought to consider, if he helps his 'friend' build this thing, I wonder if he could be held liable when the inevitable 'accident' happens.
As for "no permits/no inspectors" because it's out in the country, that's bs - all provinces and states have regulations and permits, although some may be enforced less heavily in some areas.
The insurance angle is a good point - if there was ever a fire or anything, when they spot the 'elevator' in the wreckage, I wouldn't be surprised when the insurance co declines to pay out, even if the fire or other incident's not related to the 'elevator' - read the fine print on the policy - if the house is not up to whatever code or regs, and this elevator isn't by any stretch of the imagination, it probably automatically makes the policy null and void. "Friend" may as well save the policy money.
As for "no permits/no inspectors" because it's out in the country, that's bs - all provinces and states have regulations and permits, although some may be enforced less heavily in some areas.
no they do not. the state of MS has no statewide building code, and most counties do not currently have one either. the ONLY thing that has to follow a code statewide is the septic system. only people in cities over about 12k pop have codes, but most of the smaller cities don't even have an inspector. officially my county setup a building inspector dept last fall, but no codes have been adopted and they can't even begiin to find money to fund the employees that they still have not hired. so effectively we are codeless right now as well. hard ot pull a permit when the permit office does not exist!
if i wanted to wire my entire house with uninsulated wire tacked across the sheetrock, the state could say nothing to me. my insurance could, but no enforcement agency could do a thing.
i agree with you 10000% on all other areas of your post.
Wow, I didn't know there were so many "arm chair" elevator operators out there. You don't have to ride his elevator or pay his insurance bills. I too, have a homemade elevator that has an electric hoist with a worm gear drive, brake and it won't move with the power off. I also have a counter weight to offset the weight of the car. Poohbear was right on with the switch...I have the same switch on mine, and will install relays when I get the time.
The only thing about the other mans elevator is the winch...I wouldn't like that, or having it attached to a wall. My hoist is mounted on top of the frame, with the rigging running to the center of the shaft for a straight pull. The counter weight is a little off center, but it works well. I have the counter weight over weighted right now, and the car won't come down without my additional weight. And of course the grandkids do not play on it at all.
So, mine works well, and I like it, and being and old army paratrooper...if I can't fall 12 feet and walk away...I don't need to be upstairs.

Where are my tanks at? Team Rodin needs to move forward. Great group of people, great raid leader! Also have a healing spot available.
Hmm... right now we appear to be ok on DPS as far as core spots..
However as soon as I say that, a spot will open up lol. (it always happens...)
That being said, with 4 groups running, and with 2-3 groups running simultaneously between Wed-Thurs, there's almost always a spot open somewhere in any given week. :)
(since life happens)
Feel free to poke one of us in game later if you'd like to chat further.
Edit: I saw your post looking for a guild. Since you're never ever available on Thursdays and Wednesdays are iffy, and since 3 out of our 4 groups raid on either or both of those days, our schedules probably won't mesh. Happy hunting though!

Baseball: In need of a breather
A pillow and a few ice packs were likely the most urgent needs for members of the Rosemount baseball team by the end of last week.
The rainy spring led to several postponements in previous weeks, and forced the Irish to play six games in a span of 75 hours from last Tuesday to Friday. They went 2-4 during the busy stretch, dropping their record to 8-11 entering the final week of the regular season.

Not too keen on sharing my current favs anymore since ppl don't like giving me due credit, especially when they bum a whole list of tunes off of me. But I'm feeling nice and this one's too good if you hadn't already heard it back in 2002, give Jan Johnston - Am I On Pause (Trailer Trash Vocal Mix) a listen. I heard it this weekend when one of my DJ friends dropped it about half way through a set he was spinning during the celebration of my bday. I pretty much OMFG I DIEE!!11!!'d when he dropped it. Best mix I've heard of Am I On Pause, never really liked the other mixes and the original bored me, but this one is damn good, just wish I would've heard this when it was initially released 3 yrs ago :|
And just in case you're wonder about the set my friend played, it was a wicked set, it was primarily house and disco-house with 1 or 2 trance and DnB tunes.

Is it ok for the trim and cabinetry to be slightly different?
Instead of waaaay different? Kind of like trying to match blacks, when they are off (and they usually are) it looks wrong. Does the color of my trim have to be vastly different from the color of my cabinetry? Our trim includes the usual molding plus wainscoting plus a craftsman arch, so there is a lot of trim. And there will be a lot of cabinets. So can they be just a little different, or would it be better to do them all the same?
If you're going to have different, be deliberate, like it's meant to be. I have two cabinet finishes in my kitchen, one a deep cherry/walnut stain, the other, ivory glazed. One grouping of cabs are the perimeter, the other interior. With that said, I wouldn't recommend two different, but close colors.
If you are talking about trim and cabinets, I think that was a trend at one time. I have a small color disparity in mine. I have a taupe color and BM lost the formula for my original color and tried to match it. They could not, so I chose to go a few shades lighter for the cabinets than the trim as I could not pay for it to be done all over again and I wanted it to look deliberate, not a mistake. I love rooms with different tones, shades of white for trim, walls, furnishings and fabrics as if the inherited look is aged and patina'd.
Thank you both for your thoughts. This is making me nuts. I don't know how to make this work. I'm trying to marry warm and cool. My trim is fairly neutral, but there is a lot of trim. My wall color is cool (RH Silver Sage), my floors are wood and kind of rustic and medium colored (Hallmark hardwood Historic Walnut). So what do I do with these cabinets? I'm so confused. I've looked around online to see what many people pair with silver sage, and most of them are white dove or swiss coffee. I'm picking up swatches of those paint colors tomorrow but I'm worried about how close they will be to my trim color.
With all the wood you have, it seems you're going for a more rustic look.....no? Years ago Victorian homes had all sorts of wood~wainscoting, ballustrades, floorboards, doors/trim~though mostly were quite dark, it all worked together beautifully, and many times they varied in shade.
It's a 'look' you will need to live with, possibly forever, and live *happily*.
I know silver sage to be a green/gray, so also muted in color. Maybe you should rethink the paint color, something warm, or even lighter.
Do you have any pictures so we can get a better handle on the space?
