Let's dream a little here

what's this?
report abuse
We bitch about the weather this time of the year...cool, damp, or downright cold and snowing and blah!
So, let's all pretend we won a billion dollars. Would you move? If so, where too? What kind of house/land, would you get? Pets? Cars? Let's have some fun just dreaming a little about it.
I'll start...
I would fix up this house, and have it set up for a rental property. Then, I would be looking south, like the Bahamas, the Caribbean, Cayman Islands, for a little private island to buy. I would have a nice house, but I would want it more for the privacy, and to let my dogs have room to just run and have fun. No worries about neighbors, no worry about someone freaking out over 5 dogs running...just somewhere to let them run. I'd have my own private beach to enjoy. And best of all, it would be WARM!!! And if I ever got to missing snow (as if that would ever happen!
), I would travel north to Michigan to visit old stomping grounds. And when I've had enough, I'd head back "home" to my private island. I wouldn't even have a car...wouldn't need one. I would have a boat.
I would use that to travel to the mainland to shop for groceries and such.

Give people one guess where I would be moving back to. LOL I would buy a simple two bedroom apartment on Washington Mews down in Greenwich Village. I would still shop at Vintage clothing stores and India import shops. I would use some of the money to support good causes. Money = influence and a means of pushing through changes that are way overdue.
Dec 15 @ 8:34PM
So, let's all pretend we won a billion dollars.
It used to be a million bucks- now it's a billion?? Helluva inflation problem there!
The first thing I would be doing, is running around looking for: a private island somewhere in Polynesia- near several others to visit! I would buy close to where I could get all the supplies I needed and have a yacht to trip on over to pick up my supplies! I would buy non-perishables and stock up on them. Then I'd build a desalination system big enough to supply all my fresh water needs! Solar energy for hot water showers and power (hey... gotta have my laptop, satellite TV and stereo!) Of course, fresh seafood most days- a prime rib and baked potato once or twice a week, Kahlua and vodka and cream for White Russians (all from supplies)- a movie house, tennis court and of course, a life long subscription to a sexy lady of the month club! No auto needed, maybe a mountain bike!
Surprisingly enough, most if not damn near all private islands are easily affordable and maintainable for that kind of money! Reservations only, for any presidential visits! $5,000.00/day to rent a spot on a BYOB basis- (Bring Your Own Blanket!)
Private Islands for sale...
I think that about covers it!
Dec 15 @ 8:37PM
Sadly I would stay right where I am...........well no I would buy some land here and build a house..........but I wouldnt move......this is where my family is so this is where i am..........oh well with the right house i wouldnt care what the weather was outside LOL
Dec 16 @ 1:17AM
Well damn.. Girl..you want us to Think.. or what? WTH? lol
I would Move back into my Home
...Finish the Wrap around deck... that I started!!! Add a Nice.. Front porch
Then... I would Build and Indoor/Outdoor Pool!
All of the Farm Land around my house is for sale... So.... I would buy it...and seek other Land to buy..that adjourned it!!! I would create a Wildlife sanctuary type of thingy..with Limited hunting allowed!!! Management type of hunting.
Then.....I would Build my Daughter and her Family a House there...She Loves the area I lived in!!
I would Work..helping others... Free Home Repairs to those that can't afford it!!!!!
That's My...Fantasy....
Greenie for making me think!!
Dec 16 @ 2:50AM
So, let's all pretend we won a billion dollars.
It's about as likely as wishing in one hand & spitting in the other to see which got the fullest but if it happened I'd probably croak of heart failure. By then whoever was lucky enough to inherit the winnings would be doing all those nice things but if I was to escape reality for a bit I'd set the family up with homes & new transportation along with maybe a million a piece. Maybe donate a lot to the needy. I would still live simple like not buy a ferrari just a brand new nissan for example.
To have an average one story home with a large amount land would be nice.
Dec 16 @ 12:00PM
For my kids, They would get $5000 a month each for the rest of their lives. And there would be a trust fund for the grandchildren. After I am gone what is not in trust for family members would be set up in trust for several charitable organizations I would establish. That way it would keep on giving.

Where Do I Live?
See more » Gallimaufry
For years I've had a dream akin to this:
German police rescued an American soccer fan lost in Hanover and unable to find his hotel again after helplessly wandering around the city for more than six hours after a match, federal police said Friday.
Fan forgets hotel location in six-hour ordeal
In my nightmare I've moved back to large city. Manhattan sort of but with parts of San Francisco transposed.
Not only can't I remember where I live I'm not even sure how to describe the location so I can ask for help.
Since the Berlin Wall came down and my nightmares about nuclear war ended this has been my most frequent dream.

PTA Dropout: On Not Showing Up for School
Two weeks ago, my husband Clay and I took in a show, the first we've seen to together in a while.
The house was packed; standing room only. The cast — about a hundred relative unknowns, mainly six-year-olds — sang with a vigor that would have put Ethel Merman to shame.
When the last song was finished, and the applause died down, we joined the other parents of my daughter's kindergarten class for lemonade and baked goods in her classroom. Vanity Fair could not have thrown a better after-party.
As my six-year-old daughter led me through her classroom, proudly pointing out the relevant landmarks in her first year of public school education, I realized that — unlike some of the other mothers — I was a complete stranger there.
It was the first time that I had ever set foot in her classroom, and as I write in this week's The Juggle on Sunday column, my nearly complete lack of involvement in my daughter's school life sent my mom guilt-o-meter to DEFCON 3.
Not that I ever expected to be a kindergarten super-mom. After all, I have a fairly demanding career that often requires long hours and frequent travel between Boston and New York.
But I didn't think that I would miss nearly as much as I did.
As the school year wraps up, however, I also realize how lucky we have been this past year to have such a great set of teachers and teaching assistants in Neva's kindergarten classroom.
We send our children off to school, trusting them to relative strangers, many of whom are not all that well compensated for the important work that they do. We trust that they will guide our kids with firmness and compassion, and help them develop the tools that they will need to navigate an increasingly complex world.
Over the past nine months, Neva's teachers have challenged her, encouraged her and left her hungry for more. I can only hope that we are even half as fortunate next year.
And, next year, I am going to try harder to make it to important school events and, at the very least, meet my daughter's teacher at the beginning of the school year, rather than the end.
Jugglers, how involved are you in your children's school life? In what ways have your children's teachers impacted their lives this year?

text: Mario Bros meets chess in a super mash-up Technology 08 October 09 by Charlie Sorrel Thinkgeek I love chess. I love the nervous rush I get when starting a game, and the tense excitement when the kill is near. I also love Super Mario World (one of the best games ever made) for the exact same reasons. But which is better?Luckily, I don't have to make this painful decision, for I can have both at the same time. This Super Mario chess set features Mario and his team on the side of white, with Bowser and his sadistic minions playing for black. Using gold coins for pawns is a little lame - it should be mushrooms, right? - but green shells as evil pawns and Yoshi as the knight are inspired choices.There is one oddity, though: Luigi is the queen.

Plato 16oz. Salmon Dog Treats
I got these for my dog and at first he wasn't sure about them. I convinced him to give it a try and now he looks up where the bag is kept when I ask him what he wants! They do smell very fishy--kind of like somebody opened a can of sardines. But they aren't messy or greasy. I'll definitely buy these again.

The affordable homes most sought after by first-time homebuyers are being kept off the market in part because nationally, those homes are almost three times more likely to be underwater than the most expensive homes, according to the first quarter Zillow® Negative Equity Report. The national negative equity rate fell to 18.8 percent in the first quarter, with almost 9.7 million American homeowners with a mortgage underwater, owing more on their mortgage than their home is worth.
Among all homes with a mortgage nationwide, roughly one in three (30.2 percent) priced within the bottom third of home values were underwater in the first quarter, compared to 18.1 percent of homes in the middle third and 10.7 percent of homes in the top third. It is very difficult for an underwater homeowner to list their home for sale without engaging in a short sale or bringing cash to the closing table, which is a major contributor to inventory shortages across much of the country, even as negative equity slowly recedes.
More than one-third of homeowners with a mortgage (36.9 percent) are effectively underwater, unable to sell their homes for enough profit to comfortably meet expenses related to selling a home and afford a down payment on a new one.
"The unfortunate reality is that housing markets look to be swimming with underwater borrowers for years to come," said Zillow Chief Economist Dr. Stan Humphries. "It's hard to overstate just how much of a drag on the housing market negative equity really is, especially at the lower end of the market, which represents those homes typically most affordable for first-time buyers. Negative equity constrains inventory, which helps drive home values higher, which in turn makes those homes that are available that much less affordable."
Negative equity has fallen for eight consecutive quarters, but fell at its lowest pace in almost two years in the first quarter as home value growth slowed. Negative equity fell from 25.4 percent in the first quarter of 2013 and 19.4 percent in the fourth quarter, while the pace of annual home value growth slowed to 5.7 percent in the first quarter, from 6.6 percent at the end of the fourth quarter. Looking ahead, the national negative equity rate is expected to fall to 17 percent of all homeowners with a mortgage by the first quarter of 2015, according to the Zillow Negative Equity Forecast.
At the end of the first quarter, the number of homes foreclosed nationwide fell to 4.9 homes per 10,000, from 5.4 homes per 10,000 at the same time last year. As foreclosure activity continues to fall, the pace of negative equity improvement will also slow, as homeowners' debt is wiped from lenders' books following foreclosure.
These results are from the first quarter edition of the Zillow Negative Equity Report, which looks at current outstanding loan amounts for individual owner-occupied homes and compares them to those homes' current estimated values. Loan data is provided by TransUnion®, a global leader in credit and information management. This is the only report that uses current outstanding loan balances on all mortgages when calculating negative equity. Other reports estimate current outstanding loan balance based on the most recent loan on a property (i.e., the original loan amount at time of purchase or refinance).

The prime objective of the International Institute for Baroque Studies is to disseminate multidisciplinary knowledge about the Baroque heritage of mankind and its conservation for posterity.
Since the foundation of the Institute in 1996, this objective has been reflected in teaching activities at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, in extensive research work which has formed the basis of several
publications and books
, and in prestigious
consultancy services
concerned with various aspects of the Baroque heritage of the Maltese islands, imported by the Hospitaller Knights of St. John the Baptist in the late sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Recent examples of such consultancy activity was the involvement of the Institute in the formulation of masterplans for the conservation of Mdina and Valletta, both important centres of our Baroque heritage.
On an international level, the International Institute for Baroque Studies has, since its foundation, enhanced its teaching activities by actively participating in several academic conferences organised by overseas universities. It has also taken the initiative to organise a number of
international seminars
in Malta, and also assumed a pioneering role in the founding of the Baroque Route Network of the Council of Europe, on behalf of which the Institute still regularly publishes a
The contents of the courses offered by the Institute at undergraduate and postgraduate levels and its publications reflect the interest of the various
academic staff members
involved in the political, military, religious, social, philosophical, scientific, literary, artistic and conservation aspects of the Baroque age which are presented in such a way as to promote the Baroque world as a holistic cultural entity accommodating the two contradictions of the age: the abstract mathematical and methodical aspect on one side and the rebellious, emotional and exuberant aspect on the other, both manifest in the architecture and art forms of the great Baroque capitals of Europe. Here, the still-visible residues of this eminently European cultural expression bear testimony to an age of learning, discovery, brilliance and splendor which continues to attract the attention of many scholars, posing a formidable challenge for them to provide answers to a host of yet unanswered questions, to use archival research to identify and disseminate new knowledge about the Baroque achievement and, lastly, to propagate the many lessons covering diverse fields to be learnt from it. This is what the International Institute for Baroque Studies at the University of Malta is all about.

Great win for the Good Guys tonight, as they defeat the Atlanta Falcons in Atlanta, 30-23. But, perhaps even greater was the relief that the Patriots to a man shared in getting off that rubberized grass/cement playing surface, in that dome in Atlanta. Players on both sides were dropping like flies with various foot, ankle, and knee injuries, as they tried to negotiate cuts and turns on that "field". Mr. Player Safety Goodell really should investigate.
But, I digress. This game should have never been as close as it was, as the Patriots zoomed to a 30-13 lead, before doing everything in their power to give the game away in the final six minutes or so of play...which I will hereinafter refer to as the "fourth quarter follies". The Follies began when Atlanta scored with 4:22 left, to cut the Pats' lead to 30-20. Then came the inability of Pats' TE Zach Sudfel to recover a bouncing football on an on-side kick. This led to an Atlanta FG, cutting the lead to 30-23. Finally, there came a horrid spot by the linesman which cost the Pats a game clinching first down, and an ensuing fumbling of the center exchange by Tom Brady, which gave the Falcons one last chance. Fortunately, the Pats' "D" stiffened in the redzone, as it had all night, to seal the game.
Here are my grades:
I. OFFENSE: After a tepid first half, and a horrible initial series in the 3rd quarter, the Pats' offense rolled like days of old, The Follies threatened to negate some fabulous offensive production.
1.) QB: The aforementioned fumbled snap aside, this was, without question, Tom Brady's finest performance of the season. It was great to finally see Tom playing like Tom, as he finished with 20 completions in 31 attempts, for 316 yards, and two TDs. Though there were several errant throws along the way, Tom looked more relaxed, and more accurate than he has all season. His highlights included threading the needle between two Falcon defenders to hit reserve TE Matt "Black Jack" Mulligan from a yard out for a TD, early in the second quarter. Early in the 4th quarter, with the Pats nursing a 13-10 lead, he converted a 3rd and 19 with a perfect strike to WR Kembrell Thompkins. The Pats would score a TD on a LeGarrette Blount 47 yard run on the very next play. On the Pats' next possession, Brady floated a beautiful back shoulder throw to Thompkins from 18 yards out for his second TD pass. In the 4th quarter alone, Tom completed 5 or 7 passes, for 119 yards, and a TD. Great to see him in command again: GRADE: A;
2.) RBs: Another good overall performance by the RB corp. Stevan Ridley was solid, with 54 yards on 11 carries, and two pass receptions for 26 yards more. LaGarrette Blount rushed 9 times for 64 yards, including a 47 yard breakaway TD jaunt, which put the Patriots firmly in command of the game, with a 20-10 lead early in the 4th quarter. Brandon Bolden also chipped in with 17 yards on six carries, as these RBs combined for 131 yards, on 26 attempts: GRADE: A-;
3.) OL: After a mediocre first half, and a terrible start on their initial series in the second half, the "Big Uglies" finally got down to business, and dominated the line of scrimmage. Too many penalties hurt the team in the first half and in that awful initial third quarter drive. But thereafter, the big guys up front did all the hurting...as the opened up some huge running lanes (especially on the aforementioned 47 yard TD run by Blount), and gave Tom Brady all the time he needed to work his magic: GRADE: B+;
4.) TEs and WRs: The sole pass receiving contribution was the one yard TD reception by "Black Jack" Mulligan. But, there were some good blocks by the Hooman, who aided the Big Uglies in making way for the RBs. Though Rookie Kembrell Thompkins had a pair of horrible drops, he more than made up for those errors, hauling in six (6) passes for 127 yards, and the above mentioned TD. On that play, he made an outstanding over the shoulder catch, while somehow staying in bounds...in the left corner of the endzone. Julian Edelman chipped in with seven (7) catches for 118 yards, operating primarily out of the slot. Though Josh Boyce and Aaron Dobson only made minor contributions, they flashed potential. Should Gronk and Danny Amendiola ever return to 100%, the Pats' passing game could become nearly as lethal as the one that's currently operating in the Mile High city: GRADE: B;
II. DEFENSE: Though the fourth quarter follies allowed the Falcons to put up some huge chunks of yardage in the closing five minutes or so of play, make no mistake about it...the Pats' "D" stood tall again, against of the of league's better passing attacks. Some great redzone "D" throughout the game secured the win.
1.) DL: Though Vince Wilfolk went down early with an ankle injury, this unit was still able to pretty much shut down Atlanta's modest rushing attack...which made the Falcons one dimensional. Huge sack by back-up DT Joe Vellano killed an Falcon drive early in the second half, when the Pats were nursing a 13-10 lead. DEs Rob Ninkovich and Chandler Jones were able to apply some pressure to QB Matt Ryan, combining for three (3) QB hits. DT Tommy Kelly stood tall in the absence of Big Vince, in pretty much controlling the line of scrimmage, until he too, left the game with seemingly a minor injury. Speaking of Vince, he was supposedly seen wearing the dreaded boot on his right foot after the game. Looks like he may miss at least the next two games, against Cincinnati and the Saints. That said, the DL seemed to do their best work in the redzone. Big coverage sack by rookie DE Michael Buchanan to hold the Falcons to a 4th quarter FG: GRADE: B;
2.) LBs: Dont'a Hightower and Jerod Mayo combined for 17 tackles, including seven (7) solos. Though both will surely draw some criticism for their inability to contain Falcons' TE, Tony Gonzalez, it really wasn't bad coverage...as much as it was an outstanding performance by the future first ballot Hall of Famer. For example, on Atlanta's opening drive, Gonzalez made a great catch for a 25 yard gain, with Mayo and Devin McCourty draped all over him, converting on a 3rd and two. Gonzalez finished with 12 catches for 149 yards, and two TDs. Under the current passing rules protecting receivers, defending the long, lanky Gonzalez is nearly impossible, when he gets a free release to run his patterns. Late in the game, the Pats were successful at finally shutting him down by jamming him with two players, at the line of scrimmage. In the case of Hightower, I thought that it was one of his best games as a Patriot. He was active, and physical. That said, the supporting cast of OLBs play needs improvement. Jamie Collins was beaten badly in coverage, and Brandon Spikes' playing time was reduced, since Atlanta doesn't have a running game: GRADE: B;
3.) SECONDARY: I shutter to think where this unit would be without CB Aqib Talib. Before this season ends, people will be comparing the trade that brough Talib to New England with the Welker and Randy Moss trades, as one of BB's best. Talib pretty much took Falcon's star WR Julio Jones out of the game, until some late Jones' heroics produced respectable numbers, of six (6) catches for 108 yards. It appeared that Jones got away with a push off on his late 4th quarter 49 yard grab, which nearly allowed the Falcons to force OT. Take away that catch, and Jones' contributions were minor. There was also a bogus PI call on Talib, while defensing WR Roddy White in the 4th quarter...as it appeared that White, and not Talib, had pushed off. Talib's 4th pick of the season appeared to ice the game, until the fourth quarter follies began. Devin McCourty tied with Hightower for the lead in tackles with nine (9), including six solos. But, many of them came after being victimized, along with the LBs, by Tony Gonzalez. Alfonzo Dennard played pretty well. But, unfortunately, he suffered a leg injury on the Falcon's final drive...apparently falling victim to that awful field surface. Kyle Arrington was fair to weak throughout the game, as was Steve Gregory. Yes, Matt Ryan passed for 421 yards. But 180 of those came during the final frantic 6:18 to play. Grade: B;
III. SPECIAL TEAMS: I don't know what's happened to rookie TE Zach Sudfel. After an impressive preseason, he has appeared to have lost his confidence. His inability to come up with a bouncing ball on an desperation onside kick won't do his ego any good, and nearly cost the Pats this game. On a subsequent second onside kick, "The Hooman" came up big, as he fielded the bouncing ball cleanly. The Sudfel flub on the onside kick ruined an otherwise prestine special teams performance, which included a 3 for 3 FG night from "The Ghost", including FGs from 48 and 49 yards out. Gostkowski also took the possibility of a lengthy kickoff return pretty much out of the equasion, with his booming kickoffs. On a punt return attempt, Julian Edelman was obviously interfered with, and received a pretty good lick in the process. A non-call on the play by the refs was baffling: GRADE: B-;
IV. COACHING: The Pats had to pick their poison in covering the Falcon receivers...and chose not to let Julio Jones beat them. Until the commencement of the fourth quarter follies, Aqib Talib and company did just that. In return, the Pats' paid less attention to 37 year old TE, Tony Gonzalez. After Gonzalez had burned them repeatedly, credit Matt Patricia and/or BB for shutting down Gonzalez on that final Atlanta thrust in the redzone...by putting two men on him, to jam him on the line of scrimmage. This adjustment might have saved the game. BB and Josh McDaniels must be pleased by what they saw from their offense in the second half. Some excellent run blocking schemes eventually sprung Blount on his 47 yard TD run. But, midway in the 3rd quarter, when the Pats had a second and goal on the Atlanta four, I thought the brainthrust made a mistake by going away from the run. Two ugly looking pass plays later, the Pats were forced to settle for a chip shot FG. Obviously, the offense remains a work in progress, as there appeared to be confusion from time to time as to exactly what play was called. That 4th and inches fumbled snap was particularly ugly. Good to see Josh incorporating the WR screen game again, setting up plays where Edelman and others could catch the ball in the open field, with room to run. While it's still nowhere near perfect, progress appears to have been made: GRADE: B+;
V. PLAY OF THE GAME: Though there were many, the play of the game for me was, with the Pats nursing a 13-10 lead early in the 4th quarter, they faced a 3rd and 19 from the New England 12 yard line. Brady threw a strike to Thompkins for a 26 yard gain, and a first down at the Patriots' 38 yard line. After a 15 yard penalty was tacked on for unnecessary roughness, the ball was placed on the Falcons' 47. LaGarrette Blount would burst 47 yards for a TD, on the very next play.
VI. PLAYER OF THE GAME: Tom Brady, Aqib Talib, and Kembrell Thompkins were all outstanding. But without Talib holding that secondary together, it might have been a long night.

This bathroom window safety glass requirement has been with us since 1991 edition of the Uniform Building Code. However, almost every single home inspection I perform in a new construction or gut-rehabbed properties fails on the bathroom window… obviously; it's not an important requirement.
Anyway, for your own safety (not the developers), if you have a window on one of the shower or bathtub surrounding walls and its bottom section of the glass starts less than 60" from the standing surface, look at the corners of the glass. There should be a permanent etched label confirming that your bathroom window safety glass / tempered glass is installed.
On occasions, in custom windows, there might be a removable label applied. If there's no label or visible etching on your bathroom window glass surface, assume that it is not a safety / tempered type of glass and slipping or falling onto such window may result in serious injury.
Wire reinforced glass is no longer permitted for use as a bathroom window safety glass.
Custom, decorative pieces of glass manufactured for some of those applications might not have any markings / labels that would clearly state type of the installed glass. If you know the manufacturer – ask for the safety glass certificate.
Glass blocks (windows or walls) installed in the bathrooms are considered masonry not glass.
If you just purchased a brand new property, and there's no etching on the glass surface, request a certificate from the developer / window company, check with your local building department. Don't just assume that the bathroom window safety glass has been installed.

Part one:
We are installing a new dormer/bath at our cottage in Leelanau county, MI. Local code folks have been pressed on this issue, because the MI code, reads, "…facing wondows…". They said yesterday (kind of referring to your comment of an often ignored rule) that they would approve our window placement (barely w/in the 60″ rule) if we could just provide any building (BOCA, etc) practice language to "…protect their butts". Can you provide any assistance here… please? Our contractor missed this rule and we have special order windows now on site… w/o tempered glass, and cost asisde, it will take Anderson 4-5 wks to deliver the tempered sashes..
HELP! And, in advance, many thanks.
Bob & Barb Featherly
Part two:
As I read what you've offered, along with other language, this regulation seems to be referring to glass w/in 60" vertically from the tub standing surface, or shower drain… hence the "…bottom of the exposed window" statement. Other references even show a diagram showcasing a vertical distance, or referring to windows above the tub/shower. Our issue involved windows on the opposite wall of the bathroom from the shower, and horizontally measured, barely w/in the 60" requirement.
Our bath layout: The shower is located in the inside corner or the new 7.5' x 8' room. The window in question is centered on the opposite, outside wall. By my calculations, the center of the shower door is 60" from the bottom center of this window. The closest corner of the window is 58" from the center of the shower door. Does this window need to tempered glass?
Again, many thanks for the response.
Best regards,
Bob & Barb
Hi Bob and Barb,
I'm not sure what exactly they need and what you're trying to say. Do they need a paragraph from the code book stating that a window is permitted within 60″ from the standing surface of the shower or tub? I've never seen such statement.
The only statement applying to a bathroom area is that it's considered "hazardous location" and any glass sections (except for a glass block which is considered masonry / not glazing) within 60″ from the standing surface of the shower or tub must be safety glass type.
If they are looking for a code paragraph to confirm this requirement I only have 2006 International Building Code Book & 2006 International Residential Code but this rule goes back to 1991:
Glass & Glazing
2406.3 Hazardous locations.
The following shall be considered specific hazardous locations requiring safety glazing materials:
5. Glazing in doors and enclosures for hot tubs, whirlpools,
saunas, steam rooms, bathtubs and showers.
Glazing in any portion of a building wall enclosing
these compartments where the bottom exposed edge of
the glazing is less than 60 inches (1524 mm) above a
standing surface.
6. Glazing in an individual fixed or operable panel adjacent
to a door where the nearest exposed edge of the
glazing is within a 24-inch (610 mm) arc of either vertical
edge of the door in a closed position and where the
bottom exposed edge of the glazing is less than 60
inches (1524 mm) above the walking surface.
Part two answer:
You're correct, it does refer to a vertical distance to the glass on walls enclosing the tub, shower base, hot tub, etc., and from the base surface level. Since the window is not located on any of the walls "enclosing" the shower base, that rule should not apply to it / you wouldn't need a safety glass window. There's also nothing that refers to the center of the shower door and window(s) on the opposite side of the shower enclosure / not installed within it.
However, item #6 from the code might apply to your window if you have a bathroom entrance door within 24" from the glazing and the glazing is less than 60" from the floor walking surface (both distances must be present to apply this rule).

Comments make you wonder:
why did he really leave?
He could have bowed out gracefully.
But no, Paul Oram had to take a shot at media, blaming them and CBC in particular for being partly responsible for his resignation as MHA and health minister.
Such nonsense! Fortunately, CBC did not take these accusations to heart, and is not likely to change course in any way, in terms of how it covers this government.
I say that because, in Orams scrum with media, David Cochrane of CBC did not back down. He challenged Oram to be more specific, and pointed out inconsistencies in his story. (Interestingly, NTV made no reference to Oram's attack on CBC in its Early Edition at 5:30, though I did not see their full newscast at 6:00 pm.)
Here is a transcript of the relevant portion of the Oram scrum, which was broadcast yesterday evening by the kind folks at On The Go. (You can also watch video at the link above.) You will note I have inserted some of my own comments into the proceedings...
Oram: This life has a huge impact on your family. And when I talked to my daughters about this actually last night, they were elated because this has been a tough time for them. People need to remember the media needs to remember this that its alright to tear the strip off a member or minister, because we go into this racket realizing that is going to happen, but my little girl is home sitting down listening to the radio or watching television, and responsible reporting is something that has to be looked at. So from my perspective, I do this for health reasons, I do it for family reasons, and its time to move on. And, you know, there are some great days ahead.
Cochrane: Are you saying that the media is part of reason you are leaving here, that we have done something that was unfair to you?
Oram: I am saying that the reason I am leaving here is because of health issues that Ive had, and because my family has taken a really hard hit in terms of the way the media has reported things. I could stick around for another couple of years and continue to expose them to that stuff, but Im not doing that.
Unidentified reporter: What is that (inaudible, but she asks for specifics).
Oram: A lot of things. Watch the news. Do you watch the news at all?
Cochrane: We do watch the news. Im not sure we do know, because Im not sure the sentiment youre expressing is necessarily
Oram: Let me give you an example, David. You know, first when I became a minister, it was my business interests plastering my wifes name all over the television, and my fathers name all over the television. Is that appropriate? Well I guess the media thinks it is. Im fair game, but I dont think my family are. That played a huge role in terms of where theyre coming from, and its been a rough time for them, in terms of issue after issue after issue. Quite frankly, Im not going to expose my family to that anymore, and Im going to move on. Its been a good go, but the time has come to move on.
Cochrane: Minister, that story youre talking about was because of a conflict of interest clause that exists because of connections between politicians and their families.
Oram: David, theyre all conflict of interest, very clear. The Commissioner of Members Interests was very clear. Any time that you or anybody ever asked the question, he was very clear that there was no conflict of interest. None. Zero. Never.
(If I may interject, this is where Danny Williamss poor judgment something Ive mentioned previously comes home to roost. The commissioner to whom Oram refers was a political appointment; Paul Reynolds is a former President of the PC Party. Therefore, any decision he makes is highly suspect. If Danny had appointed someone impartial to that post as would be the norm Oram would be able to honestly say he had been exonerated. -GM)
Oram: In fact, it was so bad that CBC had come out to Glovertown and chased my family around the community. So I take exception to that. Yknow, were all adults and we move on. Im just saying that Im not going to expose my family to that anymore. What Im trying to express in terms of the media is very simple Remember, when you attack me, or a minister, or an MHA, you have a family who sits at home watching this on television. And that takes a huge toll. I have gone home, night after night, with my daughter laying on her bed crying because of something that was said on Open Line or on the media. Thats not appropriate folks. Its just not appropriate. And it might be alright to come after me, or it might be alright to come after some minister, but their families are still there at home.
Cochrane: Doesnt that cut both ways? Do you read what you and your Cabinet colleagues, your caucus colleagues, say about other politicians in Hansard? Some of the nastiest comments Ive seen in my 12 years of politics have happened inside that chamber, where the media is not allowed to go, so if you want to talk about a civil tone in politics and how the media is hurting peoples families, dont politicians have to look at how they treat each other and how they treat their families too?
(Hooray, David Cochrane. You didnt mention how the premier also badmouths private citizens, like Mark Griffin, because they ask tough questions, but you didnt need to I think everybody who heard this exchange was thinking it anyway. -GM)
Oram: Theres a difference David in what happens inside that house and what happens on the airwaves when families can listen to it and watch it.
Cochrane: It is broadcast live on TV.
(You go, David! One moment, Oram is coming on strong, the next he is backtracking and stepping in his own bullshit. This is what happens when a reporter asks a politician a tough question. We need more of this! -GM)
Oram: And the fact of the matter is that everybody knows what happens in the House of Assembly, and its a tradition, its always been, the heckling and the things like that. We also know that, at the end of the day, politicians walk across the hallway and shake hands. Its just the reality of it. (Did the premier shake hands with Mark Griffin? Did he shake hands with Tom Rideout, after castigating him right on the floor of the House, stunning his own caucus into silence? -GM) To even suggest that that is even close to what weve seen in the media in the last little while is absolutely silly.
Cochrane: Is that a double standard?
Oram: No, its not a double standard Dave.
Cochrane: How is it not a double standard?
Oram: Its not a double standard Dave.
Cochrane: I have heard the premier say things about Lorraine Michael that are far worse than anything a reporter has ever said about you. (One could, in fact, compile a long list of individuals and organizations who have been slagged by Premier Williams, the most insolent premier in this provinces history. -GM)
Oram: Well I can tell you right now that from my familys perspective and I can speak for my family what they have seen said is what theyve seen in the media, its not what theyve seen in the House of Assembly. And they watch the House of Assembly as well. But what they see in the media is what really hurts them.
Unidentified reporter: But are you saying that the public shouldnt criticize any government members or the premier?
Oram: No, Im not saying that at all. I think the public has a right this is democracy to criticize anything that we may do in terms of where we should, or decisions we make and such and such, but in terms of publicly trying to, or even if youre not trying to, discredit a person personally is completely wrong. (Okay, that last sentence is so disjointed it doesnt really say anything at all. Oram = fail. -GM)
Thats only half of it. Oram was just getting warmed up here. At 10: 23, mere minutes after his 9:30 news conference, Oram called Randy Simms of Open Line, where he really laced into the CBC, calling it the most irresponsible reporting mechanism in the province. He accused CBC of being one-sided and distorting the story over and over again.
But Orams story doesnt add up. He seemed most concerned with the conflict of interest allegations, which happened back in July. Why now? During a by-election? And if health is such a concern, why not resign his portfolio for the relative calm of the backbench, while still serving his district? As for the media being mean to him, thats just a load of hooey.
Orams only point with a potential shred of merit was the accusation that media chased his family around the community. I checked with a source at CBC, who said they went to Glovertown to get videotape of Orams businesses. There was no intentional chasing of family members.
In Thursdays Telegram, there was an interview with MUN political science prof Matthew Kerby (not online), who theorized that Oram was damaged goods and was dropped from Cabinet for three reasons: conflict of interest allegations against Oram, his refusal to use briefing notes upon becoming health minister, and the handling of cuts to Flowers Cove and Lewisporte.
Kerbys assessment is simplistic and difficult to accept. First and foremost, it is based on the assumption that Oram had some autonomy as health minister; that he was responsible for all these boneheaded decisions. However, it should be obvious to all and sundry that Danny is in charge, and precious little happens without his blessing. Second, in the case of Lewisporte and Flowers Cove, we have a paper trail that begins in February, long before Oram was in charge. This was in the works long before Oram came along.
And the contention about the briefing book? If its such an issue, why is Joan Burke allowed to get away with it?
No, just as with Trevor Taylor, there seems more here than meets the eye.
Taylors resignation created big problems for the Williams Government in general, and Paul Oram in particular. It must have taken them by surprise. Suddenly, the people of the Northern Peninsula had a golden opportunity to hit back, not with impotent protest, but at the ballot box, where it really hurts.
The by-election changed everything. In the days since Taylor resigned, it must have became apparent to the Williams Government that they were in trouble on the Northern Peninsula.
Danny Williams hates to lose. And my theory is that Williams got cold feet. I think he told Oram there was going to be a change in course. Oram, having borne the brunt of criticism on this issue, might have been unhappy about that. He had staked his authority as minister on Lewisporte and Flowers Cove being a done deal, reiterating just last week that the decision was final. To backtrack would have been a major credibility hit.
What we do know is that Oram resigned on Wednesday and, on the same day, Jerome Kennedy was the new health minister. Immediately, the tone changed. Suddenly, a solution could be found in Flowers Cove. The premier himself was even involved in the discussion.
Kennedy denied, with a straight face, that this had anything to do with the by-election. And you might believe that if you are retarded. And by hinging this decision on Orams departure, he becomes the scapegoat.
People have been speculating on whether Oram quit, or was pushed. It may have been either, in my opinion, but I do think it was connected to this about-face on Flowers Cove. If Oram did stand firm, he would deserve some measure of respect for finding some backbone.
We may never know what happened, of course.
Oh, to be a fly on the wall on that eighth floor of Confederation Building

Harvard's Jeffrey Miron argues "the sequester will be good for the economy" even in the near future, helping the real economy by reducing government spending that includes "pure waste," yet is classified as part of GDP; and by increasing production of things of real value. In his view, "the main problem with the sequester is that it is too small; it will reduce the deficit only slightly and scale back misguided government only a little. But it's a start."
There doesn't seem to be any serious doubt the sequestration's automatic budget cuts will help the economy in the long run, as we previously pointed out, citing the Congressional Budget Office's analysis of the so-called "fiscal cliff." Wells Fargo economists say the sequestration will boost the economy in the long run, and even increase its size -- although they also argue that in the short run, it could shave 0.2 percent off of this year's GDP. The sequestration will cause localized short-term pain to areas that include disproportionate numbers of federal employees and contractors, such as Northern Virginia, as a March 3 New York Times story illustrates ("Virginia's Feast on U.S. Funds Nears an End").
In an unsuccessful attempt to repeal the sequester budget cuts, the Obama administration exaggerated its short-run impact (such as falsely claiming it would result in budget cuts at a non-existent agency that closed its doors last year). Cutting spending helps in the long run by reducing debt-service burdens on the economy that crowd out productive private investment. For example, the Congressional Budget Office says the stimulus package enacted in 2009 will hurt the economy in the long run.

Yes, there are some limits of what blood type your baby could be. My Mom taught Science. The kids would go home, ask their parents what their blood types were, and then test their own. One child was quite surprised to find out they were adopted. I am O- and my husband is A+. If we had a baby with a B or AB blood type, we would be placing a call to the hospital immediately.posted 02/16/2010 by fishknit
According to www.keepkidshealthy.com/newborn/babys_blood_type.html, the parents' blood types limit what the child's can be, but the child does not necessarily inherit one or the other type.posted 02/16/2010 by miss zish
Me and my youngest sister actually both have different blood types than both our parents; it is pretty much completely unheard of. We share the blood type of my dad's mom and my mom's dad. I have an older brother and another younger sister who do share my parents blood types. Having one child with a different blood type is crazy, having two is next to imposible. My sister and I had a lot of complications in pregnancy because we were different blood types than my mom, we were both born sick, but really we are happy and healthy now and you would never know.posted 02/16/2010 by ms. mamma23

"Livy and Thucydides. An Underestimated Relationship"
Wolfgang Polleichtner, Ruhr-Universität Bochum
Livy and Intertextuality
Department of Classics
The University of Texas at Austin
, October 3, 2009
It has been a long held view that Livy's historical work was largely not influenced by Thucydides at all or at least only indirectly via his sources, whose sources in turn knew sources that eventually knew Thucydides. This paper wants to reset the approach to the question whether Livy knew Thucydides and then give a new answer to this question.
Of course, Livy does not mention Thucydides at all in his
Ab urbe condita
. And judging from Livy's sources, he did not have to know Thucydides. But we need to move beyond mere
and ask ourselves what Livy's intellectual horizon looked like. Apart from the fact that Thucydides was widely read in the 1st century BC, we find, for example, that Seneca the Elder informs us that Livy criticized Sallust over his translation of Thucydides. We have no reason to doubt the authenticity of that passage. But if Seneca is correct - and Quintilian will confirm this in part -, then we need to assume that Livy's knowledge of Thucydides's text went beyond just having read his works.
The most obvious traces of Thucydides' influence on Livy can be found in the third decade. Livy places his account of the second Punic War squarely on the shoulders of those authors who wrote in the monographical tradition about this war. The works of these Greek writers, who were "embedded" historians on Hannibal's payroll, in turn were probably inspired by Thucydides'
Peloponnesian War
. And it might have been indeed tempting to use Athens' loss as the role model for Carthage's loss. What is interesting about Livy's account of this war, of course, is the fact that Livy had to switch sides. He had to rewrite the Peloponnesian War from the Sicilian or Spartan view. For his Rome won, where Thucydides' Athens had lost. And we find indeed reflections of that theoretical debate in the discussion between Fabius and Scipio when they deal with the question whether it is really necessary to embark on an expedition to North Africa. If my suggestion is acceptable, we need to recognize Livy's mastery of applying Thucydides' work to his efforts on a level that is different from a comparison of sources. Of course, Livy was not writing about the Peloponnesian War. And he seems to have been aware of that fact. Furthermore, Livy's Scipio criticizes not only Fabius' hesitation and timidity, but also his mistaken application of the lessons of history. Thereby, then, Livy implicitly criticizes those of his literary predecessors who cast the second Punic War into Thucydidean terms just too simplistically. And this holds true especially because Livy uses so many more details from the Peloponnesian War, like the tradition of painting a plague in Thucydidean terms.
Thucydidean traces can also be found outside of the third decade, as many scholars have noted. Especially when it comes to the theoretical discussions of what historiography can and cannot do, we see that Livy is agreeing with those historians again who wrote in the tradition of Thucydides. Seen in the light of the evidence presented in this paper, it is even more likely that Livy wrote these passages after having read not only Polybius or other more contemporary historians, but also the original Thucydides - at least every now and then.

THOMPSON - The misfortunes of Keith Rocco and Todd Ceravolo proved the spark to set off the biggest celebration of Danny Cates' career.
Cates, of Chaplin, inherited the top spot when Rocco and Ceravolo wrecked battling for the lead on lap 27 and he held on through the final restart to win the 30-lap NASCAR Whelen All-American Series SK Modified feature Thursday at Thompson International Speedway.
It was the first SK Modified victory for Cates. Woody Pitkat of Stafford was second and Jimmy Blewett of Howell, N.J. third.
"Huge," Cates said. "Huge. Unbelievable how relieved I am to have finally got the win. Racing with these guys I'm sure all this feeling will go away by the time we go into the feature next week, but for this week I'm pretty happy."
Cates was running third when Rocco and Ceravaolo began to get aggressive with each other at the front on lap 25.
On lap 26 Rocco used a diving move to the low lane to get under Ceravolo for the lead in turn 2, pushing Ceravolo up toward the wall in the process. Two corners late Ceravolo gave Rocco a hard shot to the rear in turn 4, but Rocco was able to keep his car going straight while Ceravolo lost two spots in the field.
But Ceravolo came right back up on Rocco less than a lap later and made his own diving move under him going into turn 3. But Ceravolo's car looked as if it didn't turn but rather went toward the line, pushing both cars hard into the concrete.
"I was in the best seat in the house," Cates said. "Those two, they don't race each other very easy. I didn't think they'd wreck each other, but that helped me. Keith would run him into the marbles and he'd come back and run Keith into the marbles. They do it all the time and sometimes it doesn't work."
Ceravolo said it was "hard racing."
"We just got together," Ceravolo said. "No big deal. He ran me right up, I got up in the marbles and that opened the door for the next two guys behind me. In a half lap I got back up to second to fight with [Cates] and he left me a ton of room. I had a good run on Keith and I just turned down underneath him and, hindsight, should I have waited another lap, probably so but that isn't the way it turned out. I can tell you about a handful of times that he's done the same thing. That's just two guys racing hard. Keith came up on me two weeks ago at the [Waterford Speedbowl] and totally destroyed my Waterford car, I didn't say anything to him, I took it well. . . . I hope it stays the same.
"I know he's racing for points. If he's really concerned about it he might think a little different about what he does to people out there."
Said Rocco, who dates Ceravolo's daughter: "There's a difference between racing hard and using the guy and the other difference is wrecking the guy. I'm pretty sure that's what happened. There's guys you can race hard with and there's guys you can't. The rest kind of explains itself. I ran him hard, I got in there pretty hard. That's racing.
"If you're here to win that's what you're going to do, that's what this place is about. It's not about wrecking a guy it's about racing to win. That's what I'm here for. I got in there a little hard, I used him up, I gave him room, he stayed out there, I didn't bounce him off the fence. He's still right there challenging me the next lap, so as far as I'm concerned, if a guy comes right back at you and challenges you the next lap then you didn't use him up too bad because he's right there. I hardly got in there when I passed him. He just didn't want to see it so he . . . he drove it in there and I was on the brakes trying to cross it back under him. He never lifted. He didn't care what was happening."
