Metabolic Engineering in Plants to Control Source/sink Relationship and Biomass Distribution
Date: August 2013
Creator: Lahiri, Ipsita
Description: Traditional methods like pruning and breeding have historically been used in crop production to divert photoassimilates to harvested organs, but molecular biotechnology is now poised to significantly increase yield by manipulating resource partitioning. It was hypothesized that metabolic engineering in targeted sink tissues can favor resource partitioning to increase harvest. Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides (RFOs) are naturally occurring oligosaccharides that are widespread in plants and are responsible for carbon transport, storage and protection against cold and drought stress. Transgenic plants (GRS47, GRS63) were engineered to generate and transport more RFOs through the phloem than the wild type plants. The transgenic lines produced more RFOs and the RFOs were also detected in their phloem exudates. But the 14CO2 labeling and subsequent thin layer chromatography analysis showed that the RFOs were most likely sequestered in an inactive pool and accumulate over time. Crossing GRS47 and GRS63 lines with MIPS1 plants (that produces more myo-inositol, a substrate in the RFO biosynthetic pathway) did not significantly increase the RFOs in the crossed lines. For future manipulation of RFO degradation in sink organs, the roles of the endogenous α-galactosidases were analyzed. The alkaline α-galactosidases (AtSIP1 and AtSIP2 in Arabidopsis) are most likely responsible for digesting RFOs ...

Effect of Retting on Surface Chemistry and Mechanical Performance Interactions in Natural Fibers for High Performance Polymer Composites
Date: May 2013
Creator: Ramesh, Dinesh
Description: Sustainability through replacement of non-renewable fibers with renewable fibers is an ecological need. Impact of transportation costs from South-east Asia on the life cycle analysis of the composite is detrimental. Kenaf is an easily grown crop in America. Farm based processing involves placing the harvested crop in rivers and ponds, where retting of the fibers from the plant (separation into fibers) can take 2 weeks or more. The objective of this thesis is to analyze industrially viable processes for generating fibers and examine their synergistic impact on mechanical performance, surface topography and chemistry for functional composites. Comparison has been made with commercial and conventional retting process, including alkali retting, enzymatic retting, retting in river and pond water (retting occurs by natural microbial population) with controlled microbial retting. The resulting kenaf fibers were characterized by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), Raman spectroscopy (FT-Raman), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), polarized optical microscopy (POM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) optical fluorescence microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and carbohydrate analysis. DMA results showed that pectinase and microbe treated fibers have superior viscoelastic properties compared to alkali retting. XPS, Raman, FT-IR and biochemical analysis indicated that the controlled microbial and pectinase retting was ...

Interactions of N-Acylethanolamine Metabolism and Abscisic Acid Signaling in Arabidopsis Thaliana Seedlings
Date: August 2010
Creator: Cotter, Matthew Q.
Description: N-Acylethanolamines (NAEs) are endogenous plant lipids hydrolyzed by fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). When wildtype Arabidopsis thaliana seeds were germinated and grown in exogenous NAE 12:0 (35 µM and above), growth was severely reduced in a concentration dependent manner. Wildtype A. thaliana seeds sown on exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) exhibited similar growth reduction to that seen with NAE treatment. AtFAAH knockouts grew and developed similarly to WT, but AtFAAH overexpressor lines show markedly enhanced sensitivity to ABA. When low levels of NAE and ABA, which have very little effect on growth alone, were combined, there was a dramatic reduction in seedling growth in all three genotypes, indicating a synergistic interaction between ABA and NAE. Notably, this synergistic arrest of seedling growth was partially reversed in the ABA insensitive (abi) mutant abi3-1, indicating that a functional ABA signaling pathway is required for the full synergistic effect. This synergistic growth arrest results in an increased accumulation of NAEs, but no concomitant increase in ABA levels. The combined NAE and ABA treatment induced a dose-dependent increase in ABI3 transcript levels, which was inversely related to growth. The ABA responsive genes AtHVA22B and RD29B also had increased expression in both NAE and ABA treatment. ...

Anatomical and Morphological Responses of Cardiospermum Halicacabum L. (Balloon Vine), to Four Levels of Water Availability
Date: May 2011
Creator: Dempsey, Matthew Anthony
Description: C. halicacabum (Sapindaceae) is an invasive plant that is considered a nuisance species in Texas riparian environments. Little is known of the tolerance of C. halicacabum to flooding and drought; however, this information may provide insight into the characteristics that contribute to C. halicacabum purported invasiveness. C. halicacabum seedlings (n = 92) were exposed to one of four levels of water availability (flooded, saturated, intermediate and dry) over six weeks under greenhouse conditions. Plant performance was affected by water availability; however, there was no effect on survivorship. Flooded and saturated plants exhibited morphological adaptations; producing adventitious roots, hypertrophy, and aerenchyma tissue. Morphological measures, anatomical responses, and patterns of biomass allocation all indicate that C. halicacabum is able to survive periodic inundation, perform in saturation, and establish and thrive on the drier end of a moisture gradient.

FLP-mediated conditional loss of an essential gene to facilitate complementation assays
Date: December 2007
Creator: Ganesan, Savita
Description: Commonly, when it is desirable to replace an essential gene with an allelic series of mutated genes, or genes with altered expression patterns, the complementing constructs are introduced into heterozygous plants, followed by the selection of homozygous null segregants. To overcome this laborious and time-consuming step, the newly developed two-component system utilizes a site-specific recombinase to excise a wild-type copy of the gene of interest from transformed tissues. In the first component (the first vector), a wild-type version of the gene is placed between target sequences recognized by FLP recombinase from the yeast 2 μm plasmid. This construct is transformed into a plant heterozygous for a null mutation at the endogenous locus, and progeny plants carrying the excisable complementing gene and segregating homozygous knockout at the endogenous locus are selected. The second component (the second vector) carries the experimental gene along with the FLP gene. When this construct is introduced, FLP recombinase excises the complementing gene, leaving the experimental gene as the only functional copy. The FLP gene is driven by an egg apparatus specific enhancer (EASE) to ensure excision of the complementing cDNA in the egg cell and zygote following floral-dip transformation. The utility of this system is being ...

Metabolic Engineering of Raffinose-Family Oligosaccharides in the Phloem Reveals Alterations in Patterns of Carbon Partitioning and Enhances Resistance to Green Peach Aphid
Date: August 2010
Creator: Cao, Te
Description: Phloem transport is along hydrostatic pressure gradients generated by differences in solute concentration between source and sink tissues. Numerous species accumulate raffinose-family oligosaccharides (RFOs) in the phloem of mature leaves to accentuate the pressure gradient between source and sinks. In this study, metabolic engineering was used to generate RFOs at the inception of the translocation stream of Arabidopsis thaliana, which transports predominantly sucrose. To do this, three genes, GALACTINOL SYNTHASE, RAFFINOSE SYNTHASE and STACHYOSE SYNTHASE, were expressed from promoters specific to the companion cells of minor veins. Two transgenic lines homozygous for all three genes (GRS63 and GRS47) were selected for further analysis. Sugars were extracted and quantified by high performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD), and 21-day old plants of both lines had levels of galactinol, raffinose, and stachyose approaching 50% of total soluble sugar. All three exotic sugars were also identified in phloem exudates from excised leaves of transgenic plants whereas levels were negligible in exudates from wild type leaves. Differences in starch accumulation or degradation between wild type and GRS63 and GRS47 lines were not observed. Similarly, there were no differences in vegetative growth between wild type and engineered plants, but engineered plants flowered ...

Expression analysis of the fatty acid desaturase 2-4 and 2-3 genes from Gossypium hirsutum in transformed yeast cells and transgenic Arabidopsis plants.
Date: August 2008
Creator: Zhang, Daiyuan
Description: Fatty acid desaturase 2 (FAD2) enzymes are phosphatidylcholine desaturases occurring as integral membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and convert monounsaturated oleic acid into polyunsaturated linoleic acid. The major objective of this research was to study the expression and function of two cotton FAD2 genes (the FAD2-3 and FAD2-4 genes) and their possible role in plant sensitivity to environmental stress, since plants may increase the polyunsaturated phospholipids in membranes under environmental stress events, such as low temperature and osmotic stress. Two FAD2 cDNA clones corresponding to the two FAD2 genes have been isolated from a cotton cDNA library, indicating both genes are truly expressed in cotton. Model yeast cells transformed with two cotton FAD2 genes were used to study the chilling sensitivity, ethanol tolerance, and growth rate of yeast cells. The expression patterns of the two FAD2 genes were analyzed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR) and Western blot analyses in cotton plants under different treatment conditions. The coding regions of both FAD2 genes were inserted downstream from the CaMV 35S promoter in the pMDC gateway binary vector system. Five different FAD2/pMDC constructs were transformed into the Arabidopsis fad2 knockout mutant background, and multiple potential transgenic Arabidopsis plant ...

9-Lipoxygenase Oxylipin Pathway in Plant Response to Biotic Stress
Date: May 2012
Creator: Nalam, Vamsi J.
Description: The activity of plant 9-lipoxygenases (LOXs) influences the outcome of Arabidopsis thaliana interaction with pathogen and insects. Evidence provided here indicates that in Arabidopsis, 9-LOXs facilitate infestation by Myzus persicae, commonly known as the green peach aphid (GPA), a sap-sucking insect, and infection by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum. in comparison to the wild-type plant, lox5 mutants, which are deficient in a 9-lipoxygenase, GPA population was smaller and the insect spent less time feeding from sieve elements and xylem, thus resulting in reduced water content and fecundity of GPA. LOX5 expression is induced rapidly in roots of GPA-infested plants. This increase in LOX5 expression is paralleled by an increase in LOX5-synthesized oxylipins in the root and petiole exudates of GPA-infested plants. Micrografting experiments demonstrated that GPA population size was smaller on plants in which the roots were of the lox5 mutant genotype. Exogenous treatment of lox5 mutant roots with 9-hydroxyoctadecanoic acid restored water content and population size of GPA on lox5 mutants. Together, these results suggest that LOX5 genotype in roots is critical for facilitating insect infestation of Arabidopsis. in Arabidopsis, 9-LOX function is also required for facilitating infection by F. graminearum, which is a leading cause of Fusarium head ...

Identification of Three Symbiosome Targeting Domains in the MtENOD8 Protein and Cell-to-cell MtENOD8 mRNA Movement in Nodules
Date: May 2012
Creator: Meckfessel, Matthew Harold
Description: The model legume, Medicago truncatula, is able to enter into a symbiotic relationship with soil bacteria, known as rhizobia. This relationship involves a carbon for nitrogen exchange in which the plant provides reduced carbon from photosynthesis in exchange for reduced, or "fixed" atmospheric nitrogen, which allows the plant to thrive in nitrogen depleted soils. Rhizobia infect and enter plant root organs, known as nodules, where they reside inside the plant cell in a novel organelle, known as the symbiosome where nitrogen fixation occurs. the symbiosome is enriched in plant proteins, however, little is known about the mechanisms that direct plant proteins to the symbiosome. Using the M. truncatula ENOD8 (MtENOD8) protein as a model to explore symbiosome protein targeting, 3-cis domains were identified within MtENOD8 capable of directing green fluorescent protein (GFP) to the symbiosome, including its N-terminal signal peptide (SP). the SP delivered GFP to the vacuole in the absence of nodules suggesting that symbiosome proteins share a common targeting pathway with vacuolar proteins. a time course analysis during nodulation indicated that there is a nodule specific redirection of MtENOD8-SP from the vacuole to the symbiosome in a MtNIP/LATD dependent manner. GFP expression by the MtENOD8 promoter revealed spatial ...

Studies on Plant-aphid Interactions: a Novel Role for Trehalose Metabolism in Arabidopsis Defense Against Green Peach Aphid
Date: May 2012
Creator: Singh, Vijay
Description: Myzus persicae (Sülzer), commonly known as the green peach aphid (GPA), is a polyphagous insect that can infest over 100 families of economically important plants and is major pest for vegetable crops. This study utilizes the Arabidopsis-GPA model system with the aim to elucidate the role of the plant disaccharide trehalose in providing defense against GPA. This study demonstrates a novel role for TPS11 in providing defense against GPA. TPS11 expression was found to be transiently induced in Arabidopsis plants in response to GPA infestation and the TPS11 gene was required for curtailing GPA infestation. TPS11, which encodes for trehalose phosphate synthase and phosphatase activities, contributes to the transient increase in trehalose in the GPA infested tissues. This work suggests that TPS11-dependent trehalose has a signaling function in plant defense against GPA. in addition, trehalose also has a more direct role in curtailing GPA infestation on Arabidopsis. This work also shows that TPS11 is able to modulate both carbohydrate metabolism and plant defenses in response to GPA infestation. the expression of PAD4, an Arabidopsis gene required for phloem-based defenses against GPA, was found to be delayed in GPA infested tps11 mutant plants along with increased sucrose levels and lower starch ...

Report: Docs recommend offseason surgery for Calvin Johnson
It's no secret that Calvin Johnson's been dealing with a knee injury for several months. But Megatron reportedly needing surgery this offseason is certainly new.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Johnson has "loose bodies" in his sprained knee and has doctors recommending that he undergo offseason surgery.
However, the final determination of whether to undergo surgery will be Johnson's, Schefter reports.
In other words, the surgery isn't so serious that it's "required," although it's something that could keep Johnson from dealing with similar knee pain and struggles in 2014.
Megatron was listed as "questionable" for Week 17's matchup against the Vikings after not practicing all week long. He wasn't spotted on the field for warmups, which means his season could end sooner than expected.
Tim Twentyman of the Lions website reports Johnson is "unlikely" to play.
That's probably the smart move (Adrian Peterson is already out for Minnesota in the meaningless matchup) and it could potentially set up Johnson to focus on getting his knee right quickly.

Off-Campus Housing:
It can be hard to find a house and the Logan neighborhood can be a very dangerous place as you get away from the school.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are a few Mexican restaurants, asian, Italian, and anything one can want.
The administration does have a tendency to focus on the wrong things, instead of actually issues regarding the school.
Party Scene:
There are not very many parties and to get in a house you usually have to know someone living there, but when you do get in a party it can be a very fun time with close friends.
The financial aid office is very helpful, and there are very nice people working there. They will help find a way to fund college for every student.
Campus Food:
The amount of food given at the dining hall is not enough but you can go back as many times as needed. The meal plans are good and there are many different options on campus.
Campus Housing:
The community that we live in is great! Some dorms are small and the rules are strictly enforced, but the friendships that you will make last a lifetime. Everybody works together.
Off-Campus Housing:
I haven't gone through the process yet, but my friends seem to love their homes and they haven't complained much about the process.
Off-Campus Dining:
Chipotle is everyone's favorite, but there are plenty of other places for dining that are within walking distance.
They aren't as strict as one would believe a Jesuit education to be.
Party Scene:
They end a little early sometimes, but the memories that I've made at parties are the best ones of my life. On nights when the basketball team kicks ass, the party scene is enhanced that much more. I wouldn't want to have it any other way! Gonzaga does us well with their parties.
I am beyond blessed to have received the scholarships that I have, and though more would be amazing, I am grateful for what Gonzaga gave to me.
Campus Food:
LoCro's mac and cheese is the bomb.com
Campus Housing:
It really depends on which building you live in, but they're all tolerable (if not better)!
Off-Campus Housing:
It's cheap but be careful in the neighborhood
Off-Campus Dining:
There are plenty of places to walk to that have happy hour or GU student discounts
They are strict but only to ensure safety
The financial aid office is so helpful and I was able to go without having to pay for anything
Party Scene:
Fun but be careful! Plenty of on campus options but on by various student clubs and the Residence Hall Association
Campus Food:
Things are expensive so if you don't have a meal plan, it's not worth buying things but the places are very convenient if you need food!
Campus Housing:
Best options for social atmosphere freshman year include: C/M, Desmet/Welch, Madonna and Coughlin. Nicest dorms/suites include: Coughlin, Dillon, Goller, Twohy, Kennedy, and Burch.
Off-Campus Housing:
As a freshman I have only ever lived on campus, and cannot judge what the off-campus housing is like.
Off-Campus Dining:
Downtown Spokane has a large variety of options for off campus dining, and while I haven't had the opportunity to eat out too often, there are plenty of places to go that are both local and chain restaurants.
I would say that the strictness at Gonzaga is about average. Although it is a Catholic school it is by no means more strict - there is still plenty of drinking that goes on both on and off campus and in the dorms. Although I myself do not drink or attend parties, it does happen in the dorms, and it really depends on the RA's as to how it gets handled. Gonzaga does have the rule that those of the opposite sex are not allowed to stay past 2:00am.
I have been so fortunate with both my scholarships and my financial aid. While the school is no doubt expensive, Gonzaga also offers more scholarships at larger amounts to help with the costs, and it has been both the scholarships and my financial aid awards that have allowed me to attend Gonzaga.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Most students at Gonzaga are very happy to be here, although few would argue that Gonzaga isn't flawed. Common complaints include that it isn't strong enough academically, classes are too big, it's too Catholic or not Catholic enough, and Spokane is a lousy city for a college student. But most students admit their love for it anyway. Perhaps the primary reason for this is the tightness of the Gonzaga community, and the relaxed and friendly atmosphere that comes with it. One can cope with shortcomings more easily when living in a comfortable and friendly environment. Students' workload fluctuates wildly depending on field of study, but few are completely overwhelmed or obsessed with studying. Another major draw to many Gonzaga students is the school's study abroad program. Almost a quarter of Gonzaga students studies overseas, the majority attending Gonzaga's well-established Florence program.
The biggest challenge facing Gonzaga over the next few years will be the resolution of these various transition-related problems. If Gonzaga truly wants to establish itself as an elite school, growing pains still need to be resolved. It wants to be taken more seriously, but this will mean more profs, more technology, looking for new ways to accommodate students (better food, transportation, campus activities). As with just about any institution, there are plenty of reasons to get frustrated and plenty of ways in which institutional or administrative stupidity alienates those who are victims of it. The future of Gonzaga will be how it adapts after this time of change. They need to turn their attention not to expanding, but enriching.

Managing Elderly Lilacs
Everyone knows Lilacs, those lush shrubs with sprays of blossoms among heart-shaped leaves--a true heritage plant. With origins in Europe and Asia, Lilacs came to America with the first settlers in New England.

Of course everything I ever did was blamed on ancestors, but I am sure if the truth be known, my genetic structure is linked to every tribe and clan that ever existed.
Bloodroot: A Welcome Sign of Spring
An April walk down a woodland path may reward you with a glimpse of the large white blossoms of Sanguinaria canadensis. Commonly called bloodroot for the reddish-orange liquid that oozes from its stem and root, this perennial wildflower is one of the earliest spring bloomers to emerge from the leaf litter of the forest floor.

Hermannias: Honeybells and Doll Roses
Like the flowering maples in my previous article, honeybells (Hermannia spp.) are bell-shaped members of the mallow family. However, most of them originated in Africa, making them much better adapted to hot, dry conditions than abutilons are.

Growing flowering bulbs indoors provides some color anytime during the year.

The Chocolate Mimosa
When I first glimpsed one of these spectacular trees for sale at my local nursery I was sure it was some sort of gimmick and too good to be true. Usually when something that different and attractive is offered, it means I will quickly be adding it to my long list of dead plants. It turned out to be a good buy after all, and I have yet to regret my purchase. The following is a brief discussion of this amazing relatively new tree available for landscaping all over the southern U.S.
It's Not Winter Without a Snowman!
Building a snowman is a must, even if it is in March, and not in the middle of winter. Some winters I just keep forgetting to build a snowman, getting carried away by other chores or chased inside by the bad weather. But when I see the snow is starting to thaw more every day, I leave all other chores and build a snowman just for me.

I was searching to replace an old cooler and wanted to be sure it collapsed and was on wheels and was decent sized. Although I use it for icing things (including items purchased from our Costco 25 miles away), I also use it to haul various things to church coffee hour, etc. Because of it's size, this works perfectly; too small would not allow 11x13 casserole to lay flat. Love it!
the cooler is a great size. I am using it as a carry on as other reviewers mentioned it double well as suit case.
This product fits our needs perfectly. We fill it as a carry-on on airlines and use it at the pool/beach on vacations.
I love this cooler, I purchased it because we needed a cooler for long driving and this one was perfect.

Toshiba introduces LED TV with local dimming and motion enhancement
By Darren Quick
June 15, 2009
Toshiba's flagship REGZA SV670 series that first caught our eye at CES 2009 is set to hit stores alongside the REGZA XV648 and ZV650 series. The SV670 is Toshiba's first-ever LED-backlit HDTV and incorporates the company's FocaLight Full Matrix LED with local dimming instead of the standard edge LED lighting used in many other LED TVs. This ability to turn off individual groups of LEDs where required allows the SV670 to achieve deep blacks without sacrificing peak brightness and according to Toshiba, delivers a dynamic contrast ration of 2,000,000:1.
Being Toshiba's flagship means the SV670 series includes a number of technologies that can be found in the XV648 and ZV650 series. This includes the CrystalCoat technology found in the XV648 series, and the ClearScan technology found in the ZV650 series.
CrystalCoat is designed to stop ambient room light reflections from washing out the picture, with Toshiba claiming it can create 30 percent better contrast in bright rooms. Meanwhile ClearScan 240 technology is an anti-blur technology that combines 120 frames per second with Backlight Scanning Technology to create a 240Hz effect to provide improved clarity for fast moving images.
All new REGZA releases also include the Dolby Volume feature, which is designed to ensure a consistent volume level when changing channels or during commercials, as well as a range of connectivity options including a USB port, SD card Slot, 4 HDMI inputs with InstaPort and REGZA-LINK, IR Pass-Through Port, and high-resolution PC input.
The REGZA XV648 series is available in 40-inch, 46-inch and 52-inch screen sizes priced at USD$1,099.99, $1,499.99 and $1,999.99 respectively. The REGZA ZV650 series is available in 42-inch, 47-inch and new 55-inch screen sizes for USD$1,299.99, $1,699.99 and $2,399.99, while the flagship REGZA SV670 series is available in 46-inch and 55-inch screen sizes at USD$2,299.99 and $2,999.99 respectively.
Toshiba will be releasing the new TVs this month.Share

Painting spaces...
Haven't seen this subject posted. I was looking at the pictures of all the beautiful projects that have been posted in the last month or so and started wondering where everyone does their painting. Have you taken over your kitchen/dining room table? Do you have a dedicated craft space? An entire room?? I've pretty much been a kitchen table painter myself. For a short while I had a painting area that I had set up in our family room but we've redone the room and that area was eliminated. Our 20 yr old son recently moved in with a friend of his but comes back once a month or so to spend the weekend and help with yard projects. About a month ago, I packed all of his personal stuff away so I could wash the walls and then had the carpet cleaned. I've decided not to put his things back up. I also removed his queen size bed and put a twin trundle bed in there instead. I'm toying with the idea of turning his bedroom into my painting space but I must confess I'm worried that as soon as I get it just as I like it he'll decide to move back home. Does that make me a terrible mom?? Anyway, I was just wondering where YOUR creativity happens and would love to see pictures of your space if you'd like to share.
Great Question! My space is an alcove off our kitchen eating area. I have a space that is about 6" by 5" where I actually have my drafting table all set up. DH added a rail at the bottom to catch everything from slipping off the table as well as 5 round containers for pencils, brushes, etc. I keep the brushes I am currently using, faster to find and right at hand for cleaning when done with a project.
I also used this area before our remodel but it was part of the living room then and it felt more like I was part of the family, day or night. On most days it is just DH and myself, and he is in his work shop most of the time. At night he is in the living room which is like in another room, even though I can see and talk with him, if I yell.
Anyway, as to the space....it is right in front of a large window, so I have lots of natural light. When it is raining or dark outside I use track lighting to help offset the kitchen lighting.
It is really a nice space but I am limited without any flat surface other than our kitchen table which doubles as a computer center, pattern holder, drying table, etc, etc....and when I am done it all must go away until I paint again.
I have though of turning our dressing room (extra bedroom) into a paint area but don't know what I would do with everything stored there! Then again, I would be in an area all by myself....and I'm a social bird.
H & C, I just did the SAME as you - and, NO - he can't move back in! It's my spare bedroom/sewing/craft room and it's ALL MINE!
KJ - I wish I could be as strong as you :) This is the first fledgling to leave my nest and it was really difficult taking his things down. I'm slowly putting a few of my painting things in there - and each time it does get a little easier, LOL! Maybe if I do some surfing on the Web to look for inspiration rooms I'll be moved to take the giant leap and claim the space as mine.
I have 2 spaces...a craft 'area' in my basement and a workbench in the garage.
The previous owner did wood working and had built a workbench in the garage and another workbench on to the wall at one end of the basement for finishing projects. My DH knew right away that the basement area was going to be my space when we looked at buying the house all those years ago. There is even a walk in closet of sorts and over the years my DH has built me shelves for storage. The table itself is big (you wouldn't know it with all of the stuff I have on it, lol) and the actual space around me is compact but I make it work. Even though I have a daylight basement this area is on the opposite side so I must depend on OTT lights. I have accumulated so much stuff and have it organized in such a way it would be way too much work to try and move everything to the other side. Where I am also gives me 'my space' away from everything and everybody else which I like when I am working. My DH took over the workbench in the garage but then one Christmas he built an extension of the existing one and made a workbench for me. We now have his & hers workbenches. lol My scroll saw, Dremels, spindle sander and other assorted tools do their work there (love my power tools!).
Heartsandcrafts, there are some older posts on here where several of us shared pictures of our workspaces. Maybe a search would bring it back up. As for me, I have cabinets in my laundry room across from my washer/dryer and sink where I can paint. One side of the bank of cabinets is my extra pantry items, but the other half holds all my craft supplies and I use the countertop when I paint. I used to work in a bank and when we got new teller stools, I was given one of the old ones so it's tall enough and works out just fine in there. I keep trying to be organized and keep things picked up, but there's usually a project being worked on and several supplies or books and other projects laying on there too. I'm just thankful to have the space I do, and it's right off the family room so I can hear the tv and talk to DH.
Well, I have a spare bedroom with it's own bath. It is average size and I am able to get quite a few things in it. I love my old desk (30"x60") it holds everything. I have lots and lots of shelving and three armoires to store things in. I did some cleaning out this year but still have more to go. The plans are to finish what I started last summer - painting and decorating. I put everything on hold because of Christmas - which starts in July for me. Even with all the storage, I still could use another room. My paints are in my desk drawer, my brushes on a carousel on my desk, books in a file cabinet, and the armoires hold things to paint. The large shelving unit holds everything else. And I am almost to the ceiling with things - no kidding. I may be a hoarder cause I sure hate to get rid of any of my art or crafting stuff.
For years I used whatever space was available. Now I have a studio.
However, it is with mixed blessings. When my mom had her stroke, we brought her to live with us. We added on a bedroom with accessible bath, a good sized closet in the bath for linens and a walk-in closet. We also included a gas fireplace so she could keep the room warmer than we kept the house. The addition included a small sitting room which is what connected the addition to the main house, and porch; the SR became my computer room and the BDR my studio, when mom passed. I know she would be happy that I am using the space for painting as she encouraged me in that regard.
I have been sorting out old papers etc; mostly things I clipped so I could have as a reference when painting. So many available on computer, and I had duplicates because I hadn't filed them. I have a file crate with hanging folders but I had gotten behind in filing. I hope to set up the area so I can work on more than one painting at a time when working in oils. I paint in oils, acrylic and watercolor.
I moved the ET center into that room when we had our flooring laid in the LR/DR. I also have a bookcase,an etagere, a small ET unit (Like an H turned sideways), a 4 drawer chest, a recliner, a microwave stand with tv on it,2 drafting tables, and a standing floor easel. In the center of the room I have a table that is our old DR table (30 yrs old!, its formica topped) with 2 leaves in it. Under that I have pvc shelving for canvases. My closets are full with canvases, variety of papers and other craft supplies. I have lots of books, and stuff I bought for when I taught classes. A little (Ha!) disorganized but my dream world. I have just enough room to walk around the table or sit at one of the drafting tables or easel. The recliner is next to the FP so I can cozy up and read or dream or watch TV.
Thanks for letting me tell you about my space!
Thank you all for sharing! They all sound like wonderful spaces for creating.
Krafty - do you like your OTT light? I keep looking at them but don't want to invest in one if the light is too harsh.
Luvs - I will definitely look back and see if I can find the older posts with the photos.
B - so nice you have a bath in the spare bedroom. Makes clean-up so much easier than having to cart everything out to a sink in another part of the house.
Cali - I am positive your mom is smiling down on you whenever you are working in your studio. Sounds like an absolutely lovely place to be creative or take a break from the world. I think if I had a fireplace and a cozy chair in a room where I could hide away and paint or read I would probably never leave.
I have a third bedroom that has sliding doors to the sun porch so it doesn't really seem like a bedroom. I have made this room into a place for my crafts. I have my old kitchen table and chairs to work on and two sets of shelves for storage and a huge chest of drawers for additional storage. There is also a closet and I keep my tool chest there. This makes it easier to find my screw drivers, pliers, hammers, etc. I have a really old table on my sun porch which I use for painting baseboard, trim, etc. (I am always doing something to my house) My various saws are also on the sun porch since I don't have a basement or garage. Marylee
Is there ever enough space in whatever space we have for painting? I would so love to have a large flat surface somewhere near my painting desk. It would be nice to keep tracings, patterns and supplies handy. Now my space is vertical and I get tired of everything ending on the floor.
DH is suggesting that I trade spaces with the spare bedroom which we now use for storage and as our dressing room. It does have a large window......did I mention it has a large window? The large window look out to our DGS tree house. Ah! Well! I will give it thought.

So far I have tried two stock kernels and a custom one by packaging and fresh installing them (after a full wipe) and it doesn't matter which I try, phone just turns itself on one or two minutes after I power off.
So what can we do to find the cause?
Thanks for any help!

If the shooter was being attacked by someone with a baseball bat it sounds like self defense to me. The person wielding the bat made the unfortunate choice of bringing a bat to a gun fight.

Maybe the suspect was defending himself, but violently resisting arrest and injuring an NET officer will mean charges. Was the gun legal? I doubt it; this is not Florida.

Hey guys I just redesigned my website. I am a computer repair technician. I would like you to give me some insight on what would catch potential clients eyes. They hit my website for computer repair, computer services, data recovery which is what I do but the bounce rate is too high. You gave me alot of great advise last time like my website was too blocky, picture pixelated, too much of a white space at the bottom of each page. I have corrected all of those issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Dont worry this is not an ad since your located in the UK. My website is click here

It's weird how your Firefox the data recovery falls under the computer Repair. I have both IE and Firefox on my system and tested in different resolutions and it appeared normally.
I am using Frontpage as the webeditor right now. I understand that dreamweaver is the way to go but I am trying to do this myself to save money and I really dont have time to learn the whole program. I think I know what you are talking about regardint the doc type declaration. I created the Header and menu in Photoshop 7 and when I sliced it to put it in frontpage it sliced the body of the photoshop doc also. So I had to put one big layer in the middle and than input all the information accordingly.
That might be the reason

you link Trend Micro

so I find that to be contradictory information ?
I presume you have run Trend Micro on a computer to see its effects?

Changing over a newer (newer I mean newer than my old hotpoint fridge) Kenmore fridge. Model schematics are here:http://www.searspartsdirect.com/part...Mod=1068676383
I want to put the taps to the right side of the unit, what would be your left when looking at the front of the fridge. I just wanted to ensure someone with a better mind than I can see if there are any coils or lines running through the side of the fridge before I drill. I plan to drill em just below the freezer/fridge separation. Thanks!
It looks like the coils are on the back?? I am no expert though just looking at the diagrams
if you want to be sure take out the panels in the freezer compartment and you will be able to see how they run, or atleast the direction they are pointing to.
I like beer, I like making it, I like drinking it, and best of all I like not going to the store to buy it!!
Primary: , common room epa , Monkey butt nut brown,
Secondary: traditional stout, skeeterpee
Bottled: Scottish Export,
OnTap: , lawnmower de sassion, Irish Red w/irish ale yeast , rolf's irish red, Liberty cream
Up Next: golden ticket rye PA
I'd recommend asking KCBrewer. His thread shows him taking a fridge apart and I believe he mentioned he was in the refrigeration game.
Based on the refrigeration schematic, it looks like the cooling coils are located the same as his. The only thing I'd check in person (or via pics) would be that the evaporator coils are located on the exterior of the back.
Good luck.

This irresistible red wine is made from montepulciano grapes grown in the sunny Abruzzo region of central Italy. It's smooth, velvety and bursting with juicy cherry and mulberry flavours.
Product Details
|Red Wine
|2013 Vintage
|1.6 units per 125ml
DescriptionA fifth of the wine was aged in American oak barrels for six months to add complexity to the flavours of this wine and hints of vanilla. This wine comes from the region of Abruzzo in central Italy, an area which stretches from the heart of the Apennine mountains in the west to the Adriatic Sea on the east. The montepulciano grapes are grown on vines which are up to 30 years old in vineyards in Citta S. Angelo in the classic region of Abruzzo.
Rated 2 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 2 out of 5 by Happyhour Not really up to the mark! We often drink Montepulciano d'Abruzzo both as an aperitif and with meals, especially pasta. It also frequently appears as the house wine in Italian restaurants. This example fell short of our expectations so I could not recommend it. 21 April 2014

Multimodal osteoarthritis management can relieve pain on the bottom line
Following a conviction that no animal deserves to hurt, Dr. Downing has built a comprehensive osteoarthritis pain management system that uses a combination of modalities, which not only relieves her patients' pain but also boosts her practice's image and serves as a multilevel source of revenue.
"Multimodal osteoarthritis management means profits from professional services, including the initial diagnosis and regular reassessment appointments, along with sales of pharmaceuticals, prescription nutritional products, and nutritional supplements, plus physiotherapy and other physical medicine options," Dr. Downing says.DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT
Dr. Downing begins with an initial pain examination and consultation. Once she makes a diagnosis, she discusses a multimodal plan with the dog's owners. "It's our experience that once pet owners know that their dogs hurt, they want to do whatever they can to address the problem," Dr. Downing says. "Part of our obligation to the pet and to the client is to find the strategy that will yield the best outcome, yet to be respectful of financial limitations the client may face."
In addition to NSAIDs, Dr. Downing may prescribe other pharmacological agents that complement one another in their actions. Other treatments may include acupuncture, chiropractic adjustment, physiotherapy, myofascial trigger point therapy, nutritional therapy, weight loss, and home environment modification recommendations.
A groundbreaking therapy is adipose-derived regenerative cell therapy, sometimes referred to as stem cell therapy. Dogs are injected with cells retrieved from the fat in their own bodies, which essentially helps rebuild the tissue inside the joint. The therapy helps curb the need for invasive surgery. (For more, see "Help pets get well with their own cells" at http://dvm360.com/stemcell.)
Dr. Downing, who's a member of the International Veterinary Academy of Pain Management, says it's important for doctors to stay on top of the latest treatments for osteoarthritis and to keep their teams educated and informed. Dr. Downing's healthcare staff is involved in preparing prescriptions, reviewing dosing instructions with clients, teaching clients how to administer injections at home, following up with clients by phone to monitor patient progress, and delivering physical rehabilitation care. "I also try to have them available during follow-up appointments to help provide consistency of care," Dr. Downing says.
Dr. Downing's multimodal treatment approach has not only helped build her practice, it has lengthened the lives of some dogs and greatly improved their quality of life.
