I think the problem is that the point of reference for designers and the editors here is a Manhattan apartment or a San Francisco apartment.
99% of the people who you might want to consider this design haven't got $55,000.00 for a car, another comparison that doesn't make it in "fly-over" country.
There is no mortgage money flowing. Credit scores are at an all time low. Thousands are losing their homes or squatting illegally until the Sheriff comes.
While this may be an interesting design exercise, only the wealthy can afford to be "green" at these prices.

Are you f#*%ing kidding me!!! A $230 per square foot matchbox. The designer "hopes" to one day produce it for $50k?! Am I to assume that would be his cost? What if he wants to make a profit? If you fools want to live the rest of your lives in a rediculously-priced sardine can to repent for your eco sins, be my guest. I just purchased a foreclosed condo at public auction for $8500. 1250 SF, 2BR, 2BA and a new community pool in a decent neighborhood. After another $12k in green remodeling including foam insulation, new doors, new windows, CFLs, and Energy Star A/C and appliances, I'm all in at just over $20k. It'll save me a ton on utility bills, too. These eco designers are con artists preying on your eco guilt.

Finals: Which stars shine brightest?
Originally Published: June 7, 2011ESPN.com
After three scintillating games, the NBA Finals head into Tuesday's Game 4 (ABC, 9 p.m. PM ET) with the Dallas Mavericks trying to rally again and the Miami Heat trying to get a firm grip on the series.
To set up this critical game, we brought in five writers for a closer look at LeBron James, Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry, and we asked: Are Games 4 and 5 must-wins for the Mavs?
Here's 5-on-5:
1. Fact or Fiction: Dirk Nowitzki is the Finals MVP so far, ...

50 year old man | Thornton, CO, USA | Seeking women 28-45 within 25 miles
Affectionate and loyal. A friend and possibly more.
'm a traditional family man that loves to have fun. I love my family and they love me. I can't think of too many times when someone saw us together that they didn't think I or we were silly or just nuts (in a good way). When I do have my children on the weekends, my attention is all theirs. I have spent many years where my work life made my family life suffer. Now I give them all I can as often as I can. If we were to find ourselves friends or more, you would get that kind of attention as I've learned that there is nothing more important that strong relationships. I've been a percussionist since I was 4 years old. I even have pictures (somewhere!) of myself playing on my Dennis the Menace drum kit at 4. I was told recently by one of my friends that I'm the only person he has ever seen that can get so lost in God's presence while playing music and not miss a single beat or nuance. I toured Europe with Far Beyond Silence for 6 years before moving back home to the US. Hiking, fishing, and watching movies are my favorite things to do. If I can't go on a hike... a nice walk will do. Eventually I'd like to get back on a bicycle too! There was a time where I was very athletic. I've crossed the country three times on a bicycle; twice from LA to Boston and Once from NY to FL. I didn't even drive a car until I was 30. I was also ranked 4th in the country in mixed martial arts before the sport ever became popular or even had a name like the UFC does now. I was an aerobics instructor at one point, certified by ACE and Reebok. So I know what it's like to be healthy and I have some goals in mind for myself. Unfortunately due to a car accident, I've been sidelined for a few years and put on some pounds (breaking your ribs in 26 places and collapsing both of your lung and a pulmonary embolism will do that to a person). I am currently healthy enough to get back in the gym and that's where I am go much of the time. I am tenacious about it as I've lost 150lbs the past year by dieting alone, now the real work begins. I would love to share some of that no pain no gain time with! someone! With that said, I am serious about my relationships. I don't play games or try to mislead people. If things aren't right, we can still be friends. Honesty with each other, even if it hurts is better than pretending and hurting each others feelings. I long for that person who understands what I'm saying. So what exactly am I looking for? A Proverbs 31 woman that fits my life and who I am and what G-d wants me to be. There is no other way we could complement each other better as I want to give my all (after G-d of course) to you. I do have a serious side though, especially when it comes to my work ethic. I'm a Veteran of the US Army and tend to be tenacious until whatever I'm working on is complete. I guess that's why I'm still a student, continuing my education to further my career along in order to support those I love. So don't be shy! Feel free to write and ask as many questions as you want. I'm an open book.
Camping , Fishing/Hunting , Music and concerts , Religion/Spiritual
Cycling, Martial arts, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I don't believe in astrology
I like Dogs
I especially like the larger breeds. Great Pyrenees dogs are my favorite because they are one of the few breeds that will actually bond with what they are tasked to watch over. It doesn't matter if it's sheep or children!
I don't have any "Hot Spot's" per say. However I do like places where I can get great pictures of the sky, cloud formations and especially Sunrise and Sunsets. I do like to hike to the top of Devil's Head any time of year.
Colorado Technical University Online, Colorado Springs, CO
I love to play and listen music. I've been a percussionist since I was four. I love play and sing the blues, yet still find myself progressive enough to enjoy fusion jazz like Jeff Beck and Jon Luc Ponty. I also enjoy a good movie now and again.
Playing percussion, Concerts, Hiking, Cycling, Camping, fishing, anything I can do to have fun with my children to include playing cards, watching movies and playing Nerf war games, or just hanging out.

Seriously. Well, sort of, maybe. Our own J-Rose dropped a sarcastic comment (it's #7) saying every Devil Ray except Manager "Coach Joe" Maddon was now sporting a mohawk.
But several Boston and Tampa media outlets are reporting that Maddon REALLY DID get his own mohawk cut after last night's series opener. So far this is the closest to photographic evidence we have:
The pic comes from Tampa's Channel 10, which reports on their site:
The Devil Rays manager decided to go with the "Hawk" after last night's game. The team stylist (didn't know one existed) stayed late and clipped Maddon's hair into his own version of the hawk. His is not as pronounced and can be turned unnoticeable if he brushes his hair to the side.
Upton noticed Maddon had gone with the hawk and said, "not a lot of managers would do that, that's why his is unique."
From The Boston Herald's site:
Joe Maddon, the coolest manager in baseball, was sporting his new Mohawk haircut during batting practice today. The skipper joins a growing number of his players who have gone the Mohawk route….
It's on mlb.com too, and they have Fernando Perez talking about "mohawk virgins." And The St. Pete Times Heater blog is reporting it too.
I'm still waiting for better photos before deciding if Maddon's mohawk really counts, but still can anyone doubt he's the coolest manager in baseball? He could very well be the coolest manager/coach in any sport in any era in any country in the history sport, eras and countries.
If you see better pics or videos of Maddon's mohawk, or any other Devil Ray mohawks please contact Bugs & Cranks immediately or drop it in the comments.

Pumpkin Seed Brittle
Make your own candy with this Brittle Recipe filled with Pumpkin Seeds, perfect for a Fall treat. This recipe is the best way to use the pumpkin seeds you pull out when carving a pumpkin.
- Prep Time : 20 min
- Ready Time : 20 min
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 cup shelled toasted pumpkin seeds (can also be made with peanuts)
- Pinch of sea salt
- Melt the butter and cinnamon in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir in the brown sugar and honey then bring it to a boil, without stirring, until the mixture is dark amber and the candy thermometer reached 280 degrees F.
- Stir in the pumpkin seeds and salt and cook until 300 degrees F, around 2 minutes.
- Carefully pour the mixture on to a parchment lined baking sheet, spreading in to a thin layer with an oiled spatula and let it cool completely. Please be so careful since the mixture is extremely hot!
- After around 10 minutes, the brittle should be cool enough to handle. Peel the brittle away from the parchment paper and break it in to pieces.

Peach Fuzz hair - on girls?
I know many people have different opinions but I'm feeling really self concious about my body hair at the moment. I'm not overtly hairy, but I'm pale... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
This is coming from a girl that has the same exact problem. I too have dark visable hair.. Everywhere! I have it on my arms, my stomach, happy trail, and my back. I hate it so much! I But let me tell you this.. DONT pluck, shave, orwax it! I tried it on an area on my side and it grew back thicker and darker. When I'm 18 I'm gonna have that laser hair removal treatment. For now all I do is keep my shirt down and pull it down when it rises up. This sucks and I hate it, but I guess we were just "gifted" :/
What Guys Said 4
Quit worryin bout yaself. Unless your a werewolf and you dnt take care of yourself then your fine. I dnt think there's nethng wrng with a little peach fuzz and a few stray hairs, I'm sure there's plenty of guys that say the same, so jus cause 1 outta 5 dnt lyk dnt mean chnge yourself. In fact, I find peach fuzz too be sexy in some places. dnt let this or anythng any other immature guys says be a self esteem killler. and smile : )
Peach fuzz is hot on girls, no matter the color, plenty of men agree. I recently read a letter to playboy asking why there aren't more girls with body fuzz. The reply the magazine gave was that they get letters like that all the time and that it's sometimes hard to find models that haven't waxed it all off.
Some men, and most boys won't find your hair attractive, but most men will see it as a sign of your womanhood. It makes us think about sex. We like thinking about sex.
Always remember it's called a treasure trail because seeing it will make men want to explore more of you.
as long as the p**** area is shaved or nicely trimmed and there ain't no hair in the buttcrack or on the buttcheeks, then its definitely alright in my opinion. I have had a girl with visible hairs before like spinal above the butt area but man did her bottom area look so nice and sexy, nice and cleanly shaved it basically makes you forget about all the rest. what I'm really tryin to say the areas you shud be most worried about taking care of is the vaginal/anal spot babe. god I feel like such a perv writing these words. lol so hun don't trip on the petty comments k, because that dudes an ass, don't listen to him. Dudes only clowning because he probably likes you but gives you sh*t for his own insecurities

continued In all, 27 Liverpool High School students make up the cast, playing more than 60 individuals.
"It's a really big group," Spring said. "When it was originally done in New York City, they had a group of eight or nine."
The play also has a 15-member crew, which designs and works on what Spring called a "modern, funky set" that changes as the attitudes in the play change.
The most important thing, she said, is that the play makes people think about its subject matter.
"I teach a theater class. We talk about how all of the arts, and about theater in particular, can be a strong resource or means of education for people, a voice for social change," Spring said. "I just want the message to get through to them. That's all I ask for."

Grateful Dead
i have been a deadhead for over 25 years. i can never let go. i go see whats left of the Dead, Phil and friends, Ratdog. The reason being is its as close as I can get to what I have loved for so long. I caught the 04 Dead tour, loved it.
The thing about Ratdog I have noticed since they formed is the music is getting slower and jazzier as time goes by.It doesnt do it for me.Im not going to no more RD shows this year.Maybe next year.
I have heard that Phil wont share the stage with Bob again.Im not sure of the whole story ,but would like to see the Dead get back together again.
Billy wont you come out and play!!!!!
Yeah, I was kind of thinking of a similar thing.
It would be neat to take some of the video on tape, have a computer generate a hologram image of Jerry, then have the Dead do a tour with Jerry actually on stage in the form of a hologram. Obviously the guitar tracks would have to be isolated from the many multi-track recordings in the vault. But it would be pretty wild. Even if he just came out for the second set, or something like that.
The problem I guess is that for some reason the "Dead" are no longer touring. I caught them in Charlotte in August '04, and couldn't understand why they called it quits. They were great.
Greg SC
Howdy folks,
I think the best thing out there is this website and David Gan's radio show of the Grateful Dead. There will never be another band like the Grateful Dead, but the psychedelic aspect will always be present in somebody's music. I recently went to see the police and walking in my footsteps was very psychedelic in my opinions, sure it wasn't drums/space but Sting and the sidemen knew what they're doing in taking the music somewhere. I really got dis-enfranchised with the scene by 1995. I got tired of all the folks who attended shows NOT for the music but for everything else, frat boys, activists, dealers both legal and illegal. I simply wanted to go to a concert, not really a festival. Sure, there were lots of good folks there , but it was getting out of hand, and if Garcia didn't pass there probably would have to be a hiatus at some point. I really wanted to hear a studio album, beucase there was going to be so much good music on that album. I really would like some audio engineers to try to isolate some of jerry's tracks from any multi-track live recording and try to make that last album with the rest of the band. Sure , everybody would call it a sell out, but I'll buy it; oops I forgot about vince, they'll have to do it with "long way to go home" . That was a great song becuase Garcia got to do the role that he hasn't done since the days of pig pen, accompanyment striaght forward...I think my fav is deer creek 93 for long way to go home. Garcia's guitar playing was really good on that tune.
Ursa Minor
I wish that for just one time, You could stand inside my shoes, and for just that one moment, I could be you - Bob Dylan, Positively 4th St.
Mozart is also not actually around now either, and yet you rarely hear people suggest that those who like Mozart (Powdered-Wig Heads?) "get over it". The point is to try and be happy and help others do the same during the brief moment in the sun that we have. If something makes you happy and hurts no one else, it is in my opinion a good thing. If someone doesn't want to be part of that well I wish them luck on their chosen path.
At 10,000 Lakes Festival there is one band whose t- shirts you see everywhere you look. Old shirts, brand new shirts on young and old alike. The Good Old Grateful Dead. Lots of the folks wearing them were too young to have seen them. The spirit lives on; the tradition continues. Jamming, dancing, the sound of sweet guitars, smiles and joy in the air.
Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)
Walt Whitman-Song of Myself
what were we talking about again?
( -;
at least your paying attention. besides i copied it because we ARE thinking the exact same thing. who are these supposed "heads' that are telling us to move on. apparently EMPTY heads. the dead is just too deep to leave behind.
nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile
gypsy soul,
you totally freaked me out... (in a good way)
I'm reading what you wrote, thinking, damn, this sounds familiar?? (confused look, the wheels in my head turning) wow, I think EXACTLY the same thing...
then I realized you cut and pasted it.
(heart beats / pulse slowing down...)
( -;
it ain't over till we say its over!
get on with which part of my life??
with all due respect to a 'former' deadhead, fuck that.
what am I going to do? put on a fucking suit and tie and become the MAN?
what am I going to do? change my philosophy of life? -- which, ironically, includes respect for how others choose to live their lives...
so if one wishes to tell another to 'get on with their life', I'll politely listen and after I politely listen, I'll say, "fuck that" that is the NYC deadhead in me. ( -:
but it ain't none of my business how others choose to be or what they choose to do... it is called freedom of personal choice.
I really don't get their opinion... I really don't understand their point. what is over? the shows with Jerry? the shows with Brent? Vince? well shit, the shows with Keith and Donna, and Pig Pen were over long ago, too. What is over? the Grateful Dead as we once knew it?
as long as the music exists to sooth my soul, I will always be a deadhead and always be on the bus.
and it ain't like I don't listen to other music, I certainly do, always have always will. and it ain't like I don't go listen to other bands play, always have always will.
marye, what is their point? I really don't get it.
I would submit that some people who have left the dead in their wake, may never have really saw the light, or perhaps never really 'got it' . case by case, of course.
( -;
here hear. my sentiments exactly, especially the nyc head portion known as fuck that!!!!!!
nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile
i have listened to the dead most of my 26 years but i never experienced a dead show. i have experienced the sense of community, love, people looking out for one another, and thousands of people dancing to the same music in the middle of the woods or the middle of a city. that's what it's all about and it's not ever going to be over for me....

A Delta-Sigma Modulator Using Dual NTF for 1-Bit Digital Switching Amplifier
In this paper, a fifth-order single-loop single-bit delta-sigma modulator (DSM) which is constructed by cascade-of-integrator feed-back (CIFB) form for a 1-bit digital audio switching amplifier is proposed. High order DSM can achieve high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), but it has probability that the oscillation occur. To achieve high SNR and improve the stability of modulator for a large input range, we propose the DSM which is composed of dual noise transfer function (NTF). The one is high SNR mode that maximizes SNR of DSM and the other is stable mode that enhances stability of DSM. The proposed architecture is simulated in the register transfer level (RTL) and implemented in the FPGA board.

New Year Equals New Rules For New Communications
Who doesn't want to increase productivity, cut waste, reduce spending, improve teamwork and inclusion, and decrease risk? Here are eight suggestions regarding electronic communication, which don't cost a dime. Spread these suggestions throughout your organization for huge payoffs.
I've omitted the most obvious principle: do not transmit or relay inappropriate jokes, remarks, and/or pictures. The following are the frequent behaviors about which I've heard complaints over the past year.
- 1) In business meetings, turn off cell phones and beeping devices and don't look at them. If you have to break this rule, let others know you have a personal or business emergency, and that's why they're on. Electronic interruptions drive live attendees nuts, and suggest that spam and random calls have greater priority to the responder than the "real" person right in front of them.
- 2) Don't read information to others that they can read themselves – It's a waste of time and annoys the listeners. Email communications are far more effective in this case.
- 3) Don't ascribe negative motives or intent to others in your emails – Your speculation, random thoughts, and impulsive conclusions can become damaging evidence, and can reach others long after you've changed your mind.
- 4) Use Reply All as the exception, rather than the rule, to email responses. Does everyone really need to hear from you? And do you really mean to fill your email system with messages that others don't need to get and don't have time to read?
- 5) Emails don't solve serious disputes. They tend to expand and distort them. If an issue where there is disagreement is important, and an email must be sent, send it and review the response you receive in return. If it's still unresolved, call the person to discuss or walk down the hall for a face-to-face chat.
- 6) We interpret communication by not just what's said, but how it's said particularly, using clues, such as tone of voice and "body language." Increasingly, we work closely with employees in remote locations. This removes the contextual elements of communication that most of us use to understand complex messages. If you must discuss sensitive business issues from a distance, consider using Skype or FaceTime or a similar system. Both you and the other person will have a better sense of the meaning and tone of what's said by being able to "look the person in the eye" online.
- 7) If you send out an email where you need some action, let the recipient know what's being requested and indicate when you need a response. Ask if your deadline is agreeable. If you don't hear back, it's possible that the recipient innocently overlooked your communication. Call the recipient or send a reminder to make sure the recipient has seen your message.
- 8) Everything written about email applies to texts and social media communications as well.
We can't follow these rules all the time, but there's no better time to try to change habits than at the start of 2013.

"When we take a look at celebrities and when monkeys take a look at the dominant animal they see where they are in the pack. They see how to behave and they probably feel a sense of community."
And it's natural, Fisher says, to want fame, "because fame brings you money. Fame brings you reproductive opportunities. Famous men get more women. Famous women get more men."
That helps explain the surprising results of a survey Halpern conducted for "Fame Junkies." He asked the middle schoolers which careers appealed to them most: President of Harvard or Yale; the CEO of a big company like General Motors; a U.S. Senator; a Navy SEAL; and an assistant to a celebrity. Not a celebrity, but an assistant.
Celebrity assistant was picked by 43 percent of the girls, more than the other professions. Boys were a little different. More put becoming a Navy SEAL as their first choice, but overall among boys and girls, celebrity assistant was in first place.
Halpern, who also interviewed many of the students, found, "there's a belief that seems to be, 'Becoming famous will make my life better.' That makes a certain amount of sense. But also just being close, just doing menial work for a celebrity is also going to somehow transform my life."
Another survey question asked: If you could push a magic button and become smarter, stronger, beautiful, or famous, which would you pick? We parents would hope they would pick smarter but that's not how it worked out. The kids preferred fame over looks and intelligence.
Halpern said that "for boys, they picked fame almost as often as intelligence, but girls clearly picked fame more than intelligence."
The drive for fame is so strong it even drives some people to confess to crimes they did not commit. Last year John Mark Karr confessed that he killed child beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey. DNA evidence later proved that to be false.
Karr's false confession was not unusual. It happens all the time when the famous are involved. Hundreds of people claimed they killed O.J. Simpson's wife Nicole. And 75 years ago, when aviator Charles Lindbergh's baby was kidnapped, within months, 200 people had confessed to the crime.
Saul Kassin is a criminologist at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York City. Kassin explains that "some people have a pathological need for fame or attention or recognition. In some cases, the level of mental illness is such that these people might actually believe they have committed this crime."
"There are all of these facets to celebrity obsession, but I think that they're actually all connected on a single spectrum," says Halpern. "We all covet fame, and it's how close we can get. Ideally we're right in the center of the spotlight. It's us who are famous."
When that can't happen, Halpern says, the fame junkie then tries to at least get close to it by becoming an assistant to a celebrity.
"We can get on the other side of the velvet rope, backstage where all of the action is going on. And if that's not in the cards, well, at the very least we can open a copy of a Glamour magazine and feel as if we're there and we're close and we can bask in the warmth of the illusion."

37 year old woman | Russell, PA, USA | Seeking men 25-42 within 50 miles
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony"Mahatma Gandhi
My closest friends would describe me as happy, honest, loving, funny, smart, and hard working- I am the first one to be there for them and they know they can depend on me for anything from a laugh to a couch to crash on. Also, I pride myself on being a fantastic mom. I am grateful to have my 2 sons- they are 5 and 7. If spending time doing family related activities is not an interest to you, please skip me. I do balance being the "classroom mom" and outgoing, adventurous woman pretty well! I am easy to smile, have a good sense of humor and can carry on intelligent conversation. I can have fun out with a glass of wine, or with a glass of water- the world is my playground and I have fun regardless of my environment. I am friendly and easy to talk to . I transition from getting dirty on a four wheeler to dressed to the nines with ease- although most of the time I am in scrubs lol. My career is stressful most days, and serious a good bit of the time, but I am good at leaving work at work . I am looking for someone with a good sense of humor, that knows who they are and where they are headed, that can carry on good conversation and enjoys being outside, and most of all, can make me smile.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Travel/Sightseeing
Dancing, Football, Golf, Swimming, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs
I am a fan of animals but don't currently have any.
So many! I love Presque Isle, local vineyards and my backyard. I enjoy going out locally, and my kids and I have visited pretty much every playground in a 50 mile radius. I am always up for an adventure..and we often hop in the car and find one.
Now I am listening to Jack Johnson and Dave Mathews- good summer vibe. Love country-not crazy about hip hop but I can appreciate it all. I rarely watch tv- if I do, it's usually House- the travel channel-history channel & it is all DVR'd- busy girl!
I am an on the go type of person, so my weekends generally involve outside activities with my kiddos, we play a lot of football (which is more like mom chasing the boys) & playground time, but I always enjoy hanging out with friends & a good bonfire.
I love to read but rarely have time these days- if I do it is usually something pertaining to the nursing field..or the news..love the DaVinci Code- Angels & Demons- no chick novels for me, give me some murder- mystery- something that makes me think
