Bathroom plumbing rough in for future finishing?
Hello. In the process of building a house, and was wondering something. Should we have the builder 'rough-in' the plumbing for a future bathroom in the basement, which would take away money from other options. Or can we have a bathroom added in the future when we finish the basement?
We are adding height to the foundation, the walls will have a membrane system, and a sump pump. Not sure what else needs to be done now.
I do not know where to place the bathroom, and the location may change in the future. So I like the flexiability of putting it in when we finish the basement. Rather than put it in now, and not like the location.
Also, I was just thinking sink and toilet, no shower. Builder wants 3,900.00.
I do not know where to place the bathroom, and the location may change in the future.
Then there's no point. However, putting a rough-in before will be very cost effective. Otherwise, you may have to trench the concrete for new drains and the venting may be even more complicated to tie in to existing vents.
No doubt that builders price is an off the top of his head price for a completed 1/2 bath, including all walls & fixtures, but as a plumber I can tell you the truth of the matter is, based upon the information at hand it is impossible to even venture a guess for the roughin cost.
First of all, what is the depth of the municipal sewer?
What is the terraine from the sewer location to the house? Is it level or does is slope up or down, and if it slopes, what is the height or drop of slope?
What is the length of the setback from the sewer tap location to the house?
The sewer line is a 3" line and it requires a 1/4" per foot pitch all the way from the house to the municipal sewer.
let us consider a typical 75' setback from the front of your property line to the structure. Now add another 5ft for the width of the utility easement from the municipal sewer line to your property line so the house sewer would then be 80' long, allowing that it is run in a straight line taking the most direct route, which is rare, but for illustration we will use it.
The house sewer is 80ft long so with a 1/4"/ft pitch that is 80 x 0.25 = 20".
You then need to know the location where the proposed watercloset will be set. The closet bend (elbow) under the watercloset requires 12" and you must have a 1/4"/ft pitch from the WC to the house sewer entry point. Hypothetically let us say that will be 20' so the pitch would be 20' x 0.25" = 5" plus 12" for the closet bend for a total of 17".
You then add the pitch for the house sewer and the DWV run to the watercloset and get a total of 37".
Now for illustration let us assume you want the basement to be 6' below grade and the terraine is flat.
The floor would then be 72" below grade and the sewer and drain line must run 37" below the finished floor, so the municipal sewer line would have to be a minimum of 109" (9ft) below grade.
Generally the sewer lines run between 3 & 10ft deep depending upon whether you are on the upstream or downstream end of the sewer run.
In most instances when building a house with a basement the sewer line will enter through the basement wall at some point above the finished floor.
If that is the case here, they could still intall a bathroom in the basement but it would require installing an effluent lift pump system. The advantage is that it could be placed wherever they want it, but it requires two vents. The pump housing is required to have a dedicated vent that cannot be attached to any other vent line in the house, and that vent must terminate through the roof. The fixtures must be vented in the conventional manner as defined by code.
Yeah, the price seemed high to me too. No, the price didn't include walls, or fixtures, or anything. The price for that to be included was 11,900.00.
Thank you for your responses! I will wait, any may not even put one in. The main floor powder room is near the basement stairs, so it isn't too far away.
We just roughed in a sink and toilet in our new basement addition, and the cost was around $800. This was pretty reasonable, because he was able to use an existing drain that was at the back of our walk-out. We were lucky. I imagine it would have cost more than twice that much if that drain wasn't already there underground.
But of course we were certain where we wanted a future bathroom. It would have been foolish in my opinion for us not to do it. In your case, I wouldn't do it, especially in light of the inflated price.
While we were shopping around for our first place, I remember always seeing a scary basement bathroom as a liability for a property. We saw lots of these - a random toilet and sink just stuck somewhere in an old house. Well, I was stupid. If the plumbing was already there, we could have worked around it. Lesson learned in the future if we ever move again.
Roughing in a bathroom in our addition was an afterthought, but clearly a good idea.

Rosanne Cash photo by Deborah Feingold
A half-dozen cool things in music, from two points of view:
Mippey5. The Fridley-bred music-video maestro behind "Minnesota Gurls," a viral Katy Perry YouTube parody, is shifting from spoofs to originals. His "Selfie Song" was on NBC's New Year's Eve show and is charting on iTunes.
Seventies Album Club. It's like a book club: Two members each choose an album for the group to play and discuss at monthly meetings at the Honey Lounge in Minneapolis. The club changed its rules recently to allow LPs from 1965-85. This month: Jonathan Richman and Cat Stevens.
"The Replacements: Waxed Up Hair & Painted Shoes" by Jim Walsh and Dennis Pernu. I gave and received this new 'Mats coffee-table book over the holidays. The glossy pages capture the group's grubby glee.
Chris Steller, Minneapolis
To contribute: email@example.com
Roberta Gambarini, the Dakota. The Italian-born New Yorker is the complete jazz singer. Backed by a terrific combo including pianist George Cables and saxophonist Justin Robinson, the playful, knowledgeable and intellectual vocalist handled ballads, blues, bossa nova, swing and scatting with equal authority. Her rendition of "Lush Life" was sad, sophisticated and sublime.
Rosanne Cash, "The River and the Thread." Another masterful collection of literate, midlife meditations, filled with Southern cultural touchstones. She co-wrote "When the Master Calls the Roll," a Civil War love epic, with her ex-husband, Rodney Crowell, and her current husband, John Leventhal, and got John Prine, Tony Joe White, Amy Helm and Kris Kristofferson to sing on it.
Tom Morello plays guitar on Bruce Springsteen's "High Hopes" album. His work (on eight of the tracks), especially the title track and a remake of "Ghost of Tom Joad," define the album. The Rage Against the Machine mainstay and E Street Band replacement adds a slashing, metallic edge that heightens the urgency and modernizes the Boss' sound.

Cheshire Arena in Swanzey celebrates Figure Skating Month
The Cheshire Ice Rink filled with skaters Saturday night as part of the "It's Great to Skate" Clinic. (MEGHAN PIERCE PHOTO)
"We have some great kids. To go out in spaghetti straps in this kind of weather is kind of amazing. They must love it," said Linda Walker, a Cheshire Figure Skating Club parent and president of the board.
The clinic that included free lessons, open skating time and a skating party for the public was held to mark U.S. Figure Skating National Skating Month.
Club board member Russell Van Kuren said turnout was fantastic for the 33-year-old club, which is hoping to boost membership and make the public more aware of skating as a fitness activity.
The Cheshire Skating Arena is one of 175,000 rinks across the country participating in U.S. Figure Skating National Skating Month throughout January, Van Kuren said.
It's been many years since the club has held a clinic, he said.
"It's not just about Cheshire Figure Skating Club. It's about national learning to skate. We want the public to be more aware of the opportunities for skating," he said. "If it brings in people, then great. We're hoping more adults will join."
After enjoying a free skating session, Page Adelman of Keene signed herself and her 4-year-old daughter Virginia up for lessons. Adelman, who skated when she was younger, said it's an activity she and her daughter can enjoy together and it's a lot cheaper than skiing, a winter sport Adelman said she can no longer afford.
Walker said the club is open to all ages, "4 to 104."
The club is not just for figure skaters. About 85 club members take basic skills lessons. Many hockey players join the club while they are learning how to skate, Van Kuren said.
The club also has another 35 to 40 members who study figure skating privately. Walker said some of these private students are planning to compete in the State Games of America in Hershey, Pa., in August.
"It's very exciting," Walker said.
Walker's daughter, 17-year-old Lindsay Walker, is planning to compete. She has been in the program for 11 years and now enjoys teaching younger children skating and seeing the confidence it gives them, she said.
"I really love working with the kids and I do think it a good learning experience for the kids," Lindsay said. "I really love performing. The competitions are fun too, but I think the shows are the best part."
Walker said the program offers the children so much on so many different levels.
"These are some lifelong friends and later on it's a job, they can go on and teach if they get up to a certain level," she said.
The Cheshire Skating Club is holding its annual exhibition show March 16 at the Cheshire Ice Arena. You can learn more about the club at www.cheshirefigureskating.org.

Product description
The importance of radical reactions in radiation damage, food preservation, combustion and in the rubber and paint industry has been known for many years. The interest shown in this field by biologists and clinicians has been raised recently by the discovery of the importance of radical reactions in normal body chemistry and in the mode of action of many toxins. The discoveries of hypoxic cell sensitizers that potentiate radiation-induced radical damage to cancerous tumours, of the enzyme superoxide dismutase, and of the mechanism of action of such toxins as paraquet and carbon tetrachloride provide major examples of this importance. Designed for biologists and clinicians who have little knowledge of chemistry, this text provides an understanding of the nature of free radicals. It explains what they are, how they are generated and how they react. Having established this basis, the role of radical reactions in several biological systems is evaluated in the hope that the careful techniques needed to prove their importance will become more widely used. This edition of the text has been extensively rewritten and the authors have updated references to include recent research in this area.

I still beieve that if Wallace wants significantly more than he was already offered he won't be staying here. IMO Brown is the more complete better WR in terms of skills but he and Wallace work well together because they do compliment each other to include Brown being the complete team player and Wallace not
Playing Fantasy Football does not qualify you to be the in the front office or on the coaching staff of the Pittsburgh Steelers. They are professionals and you are not!
to dubs point though, wallace gets into the endzone and that is an area that brown must improve on. And what also makes wallace the more complete receiver, IMO. He catches his fair share of slants and side outs, he isn't just running upfield as fast as he can as some here seem to believe.

Happy Hour: Pom Lime Vodka Cocktail
by partysugar
Like us on Facebook
A few weeks ago I helped my girlfriend host a girls-only birthday party. Instead of serving a full dinner we did appetizers, wine, and a vodka cocktail. The cocktail — with a rosy-pink hue — was a definite crowd pleaser. I doubled the recipe, made the mixture in a pitcher, and shook two servings over ice. The final drink was perfectly sweetened with a lovely effervescence. For an elegant presentation serve the concoction in champagne saucers instead of martini glasses. This cocktail would be fabulous served at a Valentine's Day party so get the recipe now.

Jensen Beach man charged with December theft of gun from a car
A Jensen Beach man was being held at the Martin County Jail on $27,500 bond after he allegedly stole a gun from a car in Stuart in December.
The gun, a .44 Magnum, changed hands three times between when it was stolen Dec. 26 and when a man learned Dec. 28 that he had purchased a stolen gun and turned it in to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, according to a Martin County Sheriff's Office arrest affidavit.
Charles Bradley Bateman Jr., 21, of the 2100 block of Northeast Arch Street, was charged Thursday with armed burglary, grand theft and possession of a firearm by a felon, the affidavit said.

If you weren't watching last January, the annual consumer electronics confab CES contained an interesting announcement from Sony. Still without an official name, the company is launching a streaming TV service – not dissimilar than Netflix or Hulu.
They also talked up PlayStation Now, a streaming service that's going to deliver games from the entire PlayStation back catalogue to your console, mobile and more.
Another streaming TV service isn't really news, and anyone with an iPhone has a bit of experience with streaming games, but taken together they represent something worth mentioning.
Coming from such a big company who's throwing what must be truckloads of development money behind it, VOD media in general is becoming a thing. Digital delivery of movies and TV are pretty entrenched in our consumption culture (thanks to music paving the way), but throw in games and maybe a few other kinds of media in the future and we live in a truly digitally streamed world. No matter what you want to play, watch or listen to, how old or new it is and what kind of machine you hold in your hand or have on your desk/in the living room, it will be available.
Streaming now through iTunes, the brooding remake of Ozploitation classic Patrick, starring Aussie thesps Shari Vinson and Rachel Griffiths and given a strong dramatic pedigree by Brit Charles Dance.
If were a fan of Gina Carano in Steven Soderbergh's action drama Haywire, you can see her do her stuff again as a wife searching for her kidnapped husband in In the Blood.
See Steve Coogan in the movie version of the role that made him a comic star, Alan Partridge.
And don't miss the cool little horror flick Afflicted. As we explained in your recent review (http://moviehole.net/201474982afflicted), you might be sick of found footage movies, but give it a chance. Afflicted is a very fresh and earnest take on a very old idea.

He made the remarks shortly after hosting the national science academy's first conference on the possibility of alien life. "They could be staring us in the face and we just don't recognise them. The problem is that we're looking for something very much like us, assuming that they at least have something like the same mathematics and technology," he said. read more

Joint Strike Fighter Acquisition:
Mature Critical Technologies Needed to Reduce Risks
GAO-02-39: Published: Oct 19, 2001. Publicly Released: Oct 19, 2001.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4841
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Joint Strike Fighter Program (JSFP), the military's most expensive aircraft program, is intended to produce affordable, next-generation aircraft to replace aging aircraft in military inventories. Although JSFP has made good progress in some technology areas, the program may not meet its affordability objective because critical technologies are not projected to be matured to levels GAO believes would indicate a low risk program at the planned start of engineering and manufacturing development in October 2001.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: The Department of Defense did not agree with GAO's recommendation that the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Engineering and Manufacturing Development phase, now referred to as Systems Development and Demonstration (SDD), should be delayed until critical technologies are appropriately matured. DOD stated that another independent assessment of JSF critical technologies concluded that the technical maturity of the JSF was sufficient to warrant entry into the SDD phase. Approval for entrance into this phase was granted on October 26, 2001.
Recommendation: To eliminate one of the major sources of cost and schedule risk, the Secretary of Defense should delay the start of engineering and manufacturing development until critical technologies are matured to acceptable levels.
Agency Affected: Department of Defense
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: In commenting on this report, the Department of Defense indicated that required resources have been budgeted to address integration of the critical technologies. The next critical milestone for assessing technical maturity will be the JSF critical design review, currently scheduled for 2006. Based on best practices standards, the program should demonstrate that the JSF design is stable by the critical design review. The knowledge necessary to demonstrate design stability includes evidence of technology maturity.
Recommendation: If the Secretary of Defense decides to accept these risks and move the program into engineering and manufacturing development as scheduled, the Secretary should dedicate the resources to ensure that maturity of the critical technologies is demonstrated by the critical design review or defer the inclusion of immature technologies from the approved design.

Make TV Awesome with Bluecop
A few weeks back, I was whining that although Doctor Who was available on Amazon Prime streaming, I didn't have any way to watch it on my television. Thankfully, my friend Richard Servello pointed me to the bluecop repo for XBMC. Not only does bluecop support Amazon Prime streaming, but it also has add-ons for Hulu and countless other network-video-streaming collections.
Now, not only can I take advantage of my Amazon Prime membership on our 55" TV, but also my family can watch clips of The Target Lady on Hulu. I don't think the add-ons in the bluecop repo are endorsed by any of the streaming-media providers, but it seems they pull video only from the Web. If you want to extend your XBMC setup to include a huge selection of streaming media, check out the bluecop repository (http://code.google.com/p/bluecop-xbmc-repo). Richard, thanks for the tip!

Heason uses Kollmorgen's single-cable interconnection system
July 22, 2013: Heason Technology uses Kollmrogen's single cable option that combines motor power and feedback connection. The scalable solutions are available with high-resolution Hiperface DSL absolute encoders or SFD digital resolvers and can be used for almost all types of applications. With Kollmorgen's single cable technology, hardware and wiring requirements are significantly reduced. Additionally, planning, installation and procurement costs can be further reduced when Kollmorgen servo controllers with integrated motion controls are selected. All in all, OEMs, end-users and machine builders can realize solutions with a competitive edge in their own market.
Kollmorgen's single-cable drive solutions have been proven for many years. The packages now offered include AKM family servomotors - as standard or food-grade versions – together with the AKD-series servo controllers in standard versions or models with integrated motion control. When selecting the AKD PDMM servo amplifier with integrated motion control, the Kollmorgen Automation Suite (KAS) motion system is directly integrated in the drive without the need for a separate industrial PC (IPC). This allows considerable savings with respect to commissioning hardware, and reduces space and installation time.
The KAS motion control platform is characterized by its extremely straightforward and fast graphical programming ability and by its significantly positive effects on machine flexibility, productivity and quality. The AKD drives are extremely compact and feature-rich. They combine superior dynamic performance with high flexibility and scalability and can therefore meet the requirements of almost all applications. AKM synchronous servo motors offer an unprecedented power density rating, small size and comprehensive range variety.

McLaren favoured Button by fitting him with the only cap available
It's go, go, go! Ok, that hasn't been heard for years since Murray Walker retired, but it's still easily recognisable as the start of a race, so deal with it. The Formula One season is coming to a head brilliantly, with 5 drivers still in the title hunt with 3 races left - albeit with McLaren's British pair Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button in danger of being cut adrift. Next stop is a brand new track in Korea, but which car will it suit? Sometimes it's hard to keep up with which compound of tyre is working best and why drivers are using different 'fuel mixes' and not just going hell for leather - but we've dug out a blog that might just help you make a bit more sense of it all:

This beloved design proves a natural fit for a kitchen that's warm, casual and refined.
By Karin BeuerleinMore in Kitchen
Style That Lasts
The Arts and Crafts Movement is more than 100 years old, but its appeal has stood the test of time. Originally a protest of mass-produced items and stuffy, ornate Victorian design, its call to heed a simpler aesthetic and fine craftsmanship still resonates with homeowners today. Common items that reflect an Arts and Crafts heritage are handcrafted furniture, simple trims, ceramic tiles, earthenware, metalworks and stained glass.
The movement's wholesome feel is a natural fit for a kitchen that's warm, casual and refined. "Nature is the one overarching influence for this design style," says Mary Broerman, CCIDC, of MDB Design Group. "The color palette is muted, medium tones: the browns, taupes, greens, oranges, reds and blues you'd see in nature." Tiles or stained-glass panels that depict items from the outdoors such as grapevines, flowers, fruits, leaves, insects and butterflies are beautiful and keep with the fundamentals of the style.

We went here for one evening and we really enjoyed the quaint feel and the room. We had #9 and it had 2 double bed, a small kitchenette, and a bath with a shower and spa tub. It was off season but all the rooms were full. It was very clean and quiet. In the evening they have coffee, teas, water all day and some cookies. In the morning they have a continental breakfast which was quite nice and the fireplace was lit as it was somewhat chilly in the open air. There was a hot tub and a heated pool in the back which we didn't have time to enjoy but it looked very inviting.

Why Samsung's Profits Fell Last Year
Via Ibtimes.com:
The Samsung Group announced Thursday that its yearly profit fell for the first time since 2011. The electronics giant still beat analysts' expectations as its slowing smartphone sales were buoyed by demand for its computer chips.
Sales of Samsung's Galaxy smartphones made up two-thirds of its profit for the last two years, but they will be eclipsed by its semiconductor business in 2015, according to analyst Lee Sei-cheol from Woori Investment & Securities. The company announced that its 2014 operating profits were expected to reach 24.9 trillion won, or $22.6 billion, down 32 percent from a year earlier.
Samsung is feeling the squeeze from Apple on the high end, especially now that the iPhone comes in two new sizes — "Extra Large" and "Waffle Iron." (I know, I know — everybody loves the big smartphones but me.) Worse for Samsung is that they're having the floor eaten out of their massive low-end sales by even lower-cost copycats like China's Xiaomi. (Somewhere, Jony Ive and the ghost of Steve Jobs are doing the Happy Dance together as they watch their copycat get consumed by copycats.)
The point to remember here is that Samsung was literally — and I'm not abusing that word — literally the only Android phonemaker generating any profits worth mentioning. What Samsung's troubles mean for Android going forward is anyone's guess, although it took the Android market a comparatively short time, maybe even a shockingly short time, to become just as commoditized as the Windows PC market. Over the course of decades, Windows generated billions and billions for Microsoft and for PC makers before commoditization (and OS X) sucked all the profits out of the Wintel business model. Android went down that same road in just three or four years.
The key difference is that Android doesn't have to generate profits for Google — but what happens to the OEMs who at some point are going to have to generate a profit or two?
Why Amazon's Fire Phone Failed
The best tech article I've read in weeks is Fast Company's behind-the-scenes report on the development of Amazon's Fire Phone — which was thoroughly rejected by consumers and caused an embarrassing $170,000,000 write-down for the retailing giant. So what went so wrong?
The short version might be: Jeff Bezos thought he was Steve Jobs.
Bezos drove the team hard on one particular feature: Dynamic Perspective, the 3-D effects engine that is perhaps most representative of what went wrong with the Fire Phone. Dynamic Perspective presented the team with a challenge: Create a 3-D display that requires no glasses and is visible from multiple angles. The key would be facial recognition, which would allow the phone's cameras to track a user's gaze and adjust the 3-D effect accordingly. After a first set of leaders assigned to the project failed to deliver, their replacements went on a hiring spree. One team even set up a room that they essentially turned into a costume store, filling it with wigs, sunglasses, fake moustaches, and earrings that they donned for the cameras in order to improve facial recognition. "I want this feature," Bezos said, telling the team he didn't care how long it took or how much it cost. Eventually, a solution was discovered: Four cameras had to be mounted at the corners of the phone, each capable of identifying facial features, whether in total darkness or obscured by sunglasses. But adding that to the phone created a serious battery drain.
And team members simply could not imagine truly useful applications for Dynamic Perspective.
On the Fire Phone, Bezos forgot all about his laser-like focus on the customer's needs, to pursue a feature his own design team didn't know what to do with. Has Bezos reached that point of success where nobody can tell him No anymore? As a happy Amazon customer, I certainly hope not, although Amazon could fiddle around with more failures like the Fire Phone for years before it negatively impacted its retail operations. But here's the bit which should have investors worried:
Bezos has said that his job is to encourage more "bold bets" and to embrace failure inside the company in pursuit of the big successes that "compensate for dozens and dozens of things that [don't] work." That drive and willingness to experiment has made Amazon a formidable competitor; Google chairman Eric Schmidt, for one, has said he considers Amazon to be the search giant's most dangerous rival. For Apple, too, its ambitions with e-commerce, iCloud, and now, even devices, all run headlong into Amazon's initiatives. But will all of Bezos's risk-taking ultimately pay off? "They make no money!" former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer exclaimed in a recent TV interview. "In my world, [that's] not a real business. I get it if you don't make money for two or three years, but Amazon is, what, 21 years old?"
You get the feeling the profits just aren't a part of Amazon's business model?
UPDATE: An unfair thought just occurred to me. If you want to expand an existing business into profitable new fields, Ballmer is not the person you call on to help. But if you want to squeeze extra billions out of existing products and services, there might not be anyone better than Ballmer. Maybe Bezos should make him an offer he can't refuse…
A Swing and a Miss for Amazon
The e-commerce giant said Monday it's now offering the 32-gigabyte version of its first smartphone, which went on sale just two months ago, for 99 cents with a two-year contract, down from $200. One year of Amazon's Prime service is still included as a short-term promotion. A year of Prime, which offers free two-day shipping and streaming music and video libraries, usually costs $99.
Amazon also slashed the price of its 64GB Fire Phone to $100 with a two-year contract, down from $300.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that sticking a confusing UI on top of somebody else's OS inside last year's hardware at this year's prices wasn't exactly the smartest thing Jeff Bezos ever did.
Putting Out the Fire Phone
You could argue that if the Amazon Fire Phone under-indexes, it probably isn't by much; you could multiply the number by 25%, based on the average of the Samsung and HTC figures. That takes you up to about 33,000 devices.
Therefore even allowing for margins of error, it seems unlikely – based on Chitika's data and the ComScore data – that there were more than about 35,000 Fire Phones in use after those 20 days.
Amazon had not responded to a request for comment on the calculation by the time of publication.
Although I can't say I'm surprised. The phone is phugly, and by nearly every account, the user interface is an unusable and clumsy mess. And it's priced the same as an iPhone or a top-tier Android device, when clearly it's neither.
Still, it's comforting to know that not even Amazon's marketing muscle — and I say this as a happy and devoted customer of theirs — isn't enough to push people into buying overpriced craptaculence.
Amazon Enters Retail — Again
From the Seattle Post-Intelligencer:
Similar to Amazon's strategy in many of its businesses, the company aims to compete on price in the mobile payment arena. For customers who sign up for the service by Oct. 31, Amazon will take as its fee 1.75 percent of each payment processed, or each "swipe" of the card, a special rate that will last until Jan. 1, 2016. For people who sign up after Oct. 31, Amazon will take a service fee of 2.5 percent of each payment processed.
The first $10 in transaction fees will be credited back to the customer, essentially paying for the card reader.
That's below most of its competitors' rates. Square takes a fee of 2.75 percent of each transaction. PayPal Here takes 2.7 percent of each transaction and Intuit's GoPayment rates start at 1.75 percent per transaction if businesses pay a $19.95 monthly rate or 2.4 percent of each transaction without a monthly payment.
That's a helluva good deal from Amazon for small retailers, made possible by the company's huge cash flow.

Is Amazon's New Music Streaming Scheme Aiming at the Fogies?
Amazon bringing free music streaming to Prime customers, but there is a catch:
The company will expand its Prime membership offerings by adding a stockpile of old and newish music for subscribers to stream on demand. The Prime music service, which is scheduled to launch this June or July, will not include recent releases but instead restrict its catalog to songs and albums that are 6 months old and older, five music industry sources familiar with the company's plans confirmed to BuzzFeed.
Fogies like myself are Amazon's most-likely Prime customers, and also the customers least interested in the latest music — so the catch is far from a deal-breaker. But when you consider that Prime customers already pony up $99 a year (up from $79), Amazon's new service makes it harder to justify the $500 million Apple paid for Beats Music as part of the Beats acquisition.

So, Who's Ready for a Sky Full of Amazon Drones?
60 Minutes previewed the future last night. Amazon is planning to use drone aircraft to enable 30-minute delivery of many products that we order online.
Charlie Rose: This is?
Jeff Bezos:…is…these are octocopters.
Charlie Rose: Yeah?
Jeff Bezos: These are effectively drones but there's no reason that they can't be used as delivery vehicles. Take a look up here so I can show you how it works.
Charlie Rose: All right. We're talking about delivery here?
Jeff Bezos: We're talking about delivery. There's an item going into the vehicle. I know this looks like science fiction. It's not.
Charlie Rose: Wow!
Jeff Bezos: This is early. This is still…years away. It drops the package.
Charlie Rose: And there's the package.
Jeff Bezos: You come and get your package. And we can do half hour delivery.
Charlie Rose: Half hour delivery?
Jeff Bezos: Half hour delivery/and we can carry objects, we think, up to five pounds, which covers 86 percent of the items that we deliver.
Charlie Rose: And what is the range between the fulfillment center and where you can do this within…
Jeff Bezos: These…this…this…these gener…
Charlie Rose: 30 minutes?
Jeff Bezos: These generations of vehicles, it could be a 10-mile radius from a fulfillment center. So, in urban areas, you could actually cover very significant portions of the population. And so, it won't work for everything; you know, we're not gonna deliver kayaks or table saws this way. These are electric motors, so this is all electric; it's very green, it's better than driving trucks around. This is…this is all an R&D project.
Charlie Rose: With drones, there's somebody sitting somewhere in front of a screen.
Jeff Bezos: Not these; these are autonomous. So you give 'em instructions of which GPS coordinates to go to, and they take off and they fly to those GPS coordinates.
Charlie Rose: What's the hardest challenge in making this happen?
Jeff Bezos: The hard part here is putting in all the redundancy, all the reliability, all the systems you need to say, 'Look, this thing can't land on somebody's head while they're walking around their neighborhood'…
Charlie Rose doesn't know what a drone is? Sheesh.
This idea seems cool until you think it through for a bit. Amazon's drones will be eyesores in the air and electromagnets for lawyers when one of them goes haywire and crashes in someone's yard or in the middle of a street or, heaven forbid, kills a guy. Human nature can be a nasty thing. Lawfare is strangling innovation in America. Watch octocopter-chasing lawyers have a heyday over Amazon's drones and its fat wallet. Watch the newspaper Amazon owns defend whatever the company does. And watch environmentalists slow this whole thing down in court.
The hardest part technologically probably isn't building in redundancy. The hardest part is making sure these things don't become magnets for thieves (other than the aforementioned lawyers). Where you have valuable product moving, you have the potential for heists. These drones could and probably will become targets, especially if they're in operation at night. So game that out, and Amazon will end up working with the FAA to either create sky lanes through which its drones will have special permission to travel, which would be protected either from the air or the ground against theft, or they'll have to arm the drones with countermeasures.
When Amazon merges with Google to perfect the drones' accuracy, it's all heading toward SkyNet.
How to Install a New Faucet in 7 Easy Steps
I hate plumbing. I really, really hate it. Given the choice between doing a plumbing project or listening to a Miley Cyrus album, I would choose a root canal (at least a drill can stay on pitch). About the only thing I'm good at with plumbing is displaying copious amounts of hairy butt crack while working.
On the surface plumbing sounds relatively simple: pipes bring clean water in, and separate pipes take the poop water away. But with changing building codes and new developments in materials there is no standardized system, so you often don't know if you're going to be dealing with iron pipe, copper, pvc or cpvc, or new pex fittings, until you actually dig into a project.
There is a reason plumbers can charge $60+ per hour, and if you have more money than time or patience then I strongly recommend hiring one, particularly if you are dealing with a difficult issue. However, if you want to save a bunch of money and improve the look of your bathroom or kitchen, replacing a faucet is within the ability of most homeowners.
What You Need:
New Faucet. ¼ Turn shutoff valves. Stainless Steel Supply Lines.
1. The first step in any plumbing project is to shut off the water to the area where you are working.
Most fixtures have shut off valves in the cabinet underneath. If yours are in good shape simply turn off the valves for both the cold and hot water, and move to step 4. If however, you have ancient shutoffs from the 1970s and need to replace them you will have to shut off the main water supply to the house. Most mainline shutoffs are located outside the house in an enclosed box underground. Beware if you live in the southwest like me; critters love the shade and moisture provided here, so look out for black widows, scorpions, and snakes. (Man aren't you glad you decided to do this?) The other shut off should be located on top of the water heater.
8 Last-Minute Father's Day Gifts You Can Get Your Dad Without Leaving Your Keyboard
Every year, I forget Mother's Day until it's too late.
Father's Day I usually remember.
This evening I was driving my children to Little League and I said to my wife, "Is Father's Day this Sunday?"
"Yep," she said.
I forgot.
I'm sure there are people out there who are in the same boat as me. Back in the day, I'd be scrambling for a fishing lure or work shirt.
Today, though, I don't need to go anywhere. I can buy my Dad a gift right here at the keyboard.
So, if you read this and find yourself in the same boat as me, you're in luck, because I'm about to list off eight different gifts you can get your father for Father's Day without leaving the keyboard.
Starting with something manly.
A Manly Book
I make bracelets with my son.
I know that doesn't sound like a "manly" hobby, but it is.
We make them using parachute cord, or paracord. Take a length of paracord, depending on the size of your wrist, tie a few knots, and BOOM!
You can buy paracord in pretty much any color you want. You can buy buckles and use them, or you can buy flint and steel and make a firestarter survival bracelet.
Now that's manly.
However, you can't download the paracord.
You can't download the buckles or the flint and steel.
But you can download the ebook Manly Crafts.
I know what you're thinking.
"Manly Crafts?" That's an oxymoron.
Well, here's the first manly craft in the book.
Take this:
And turn it into this:
Using these:
The best part, aside from the time you'll spend with your dear old dad working on the project in this book, is that the book's less than a dollar.
There are tons of cheap ebooks out there for Father's Day. Get your dad a couple.

Walmart Pulls the Amazon Kindle 'Trojan Horse' From Shelves
via Wal-Mart stops selling Amazon Kindles | Reuters.
(Reuters) – Wal-Mart Stores Inc will no longer sell Amazon.com Inc's Kindle eReaders and tablets, severing its relationship with a major competitor and placing a bet that consumers are more interested in Apple's iPad and other gadgets.
The world's largest retailer, which has been trying to catch up to Amazon in online sales, said the decision was consistent with its overall merchandising strategy.
Owners of Kindle tablets such as the new Kindle Fire HD can shop on the devices for millions of items beyond digital books. This allows Amazon to compete with stores on more lines of merchandise. This spring, Target Corp stopped selling the products.
Amazon has already tested physical stores for other goods. Now, with two large chains no longer selling Kindle, speculation has grown that the dominant online retailer could open its stores where shoppers could try out and buy Kindles.
Amazon "is a little bit of a Trojan horse" when the Kindle is sold in other stores, said Sucharita Mulpuru, retail analyst at Forrester Research. "They should have made this decision to not carry the Kindle a long time ago."

The protest application has been filed by Sachidanand, on whose petition the high court has ordered the CBI probe into death of deputy CMO Dr YS Sachan. Dr Sachan was found dead in Lucknow jail on June 22, 2011.
