bob0987654321 Review
It's true that the white shelf slats are precariously stapled onto the underlying white wood grid. Forewarned by other reviewers, I handled the shelves very gingerly while unpacking them. Even so, had to use Goop on just one slat. In position, i.e. in use, the chintzy stapling is not a problem. Note that the upper and lower shelves are not interchangeable. The hardwood top and base have 4 dowel holes pre-drilled. Only 2 dowels are supplied, as indicated in the Parts List. So what, do they profit an extra 9 cents from each unit as a result? Seems also chintzy. The most challenging assembly problem was that the 4 metal tabs that screw into the underside of the hardwood top were not formed at anywhere near a sufficient angle to allow just rotating them into the linear grooves in the left and right sides of the cabinet. Just rotating them would have left them about an inch below the grooves. Those tabs are all that hold the top onto the cabinet, with the two dowels only aligning the top to the base (unless you were to glue them). The tabs are very difficult to bend. The solution I applied was to screw the 4 metal tabs firmly onto the underside of the inverted top, and then use the claw of a hammer to bend them up sufficiently to match the level of the grooves. This was done gingerly, in about 4 partial bends each, setting the top on the base each time to check progress, and then takling it off to bend the tabs further. While the angles are now not ideal, the top is quite snug, and the only time a potential problem could ensue woulf be if sharply lifting the whole unit by the top edges. But because of my outstanding artistry in the bending, even this is unlikely. Further, the particular drawing for that assembly step was almost useless, with the relative sizes and locations of those two interlocking parts rendered completely inaccurately, except for the 90-degree angle involved. The second most challenging problem was tapping some of the metal pins into a few slightly undersized holes (Other holes were fine --just snug enough). Even hammering the pins through a block of wood, the lower right rear cabinet wood splintered apart. Clear Household Goop (not the yellow "Plumbers Goop"), two clamps, overnight dry--and I won't tell any of the females around here if you don't. Beyond that, I will say that all the predrilled holes were in excellent alignment. Note that the handle on the right side adds length to the advertised dimension. In the tight corner next to my stove, I had to just leave it off. Trying to think of something else to do with the beautifully-finished handle offers hours of contemplative fun, particularly if you keep it near the toilet. The answer so far: Nothing. The height of the unit is at least an inch and a half lower that the standard stovetop next to it. No big deal, but I did subsequently acquire a 30-inch wide, 1 and 1/2 inch-thick heavy hardwood top to set atop the unit, to make it more nearly contiguous with the level of the stovetop. *** or so, thus made the whole purchase significantly more $$$. But I like the look--more of an actual butcher block, and two inches deeper than the top of the original piece. Looks great, and doesn't detract from ease of opening the drawer. You actually cannot see the original top, without bending way down. I left out the upper shelf, and set a white plastic "tall kitchen bag" trash receptacle on the lower shelf. When in use, the receptacle may be pulled out and set against the unit's door, snugged to the stove. It barely sticks out past the front of the stove, if at all. (My unit is to the right of the stove.) There is still room on the shelf for a couple of large cutting boards set on end. If you found this review useful, please send a large amount of money to Bob, P.O. Box ***, **** NY ****.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Yes.Wood top rendered accurately, and bright 'Appliance White' matches stove and refrigerator.
- How is the quality of the product? Good but not great.
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? Yes.

Results tagged "national new play network" from Drama Queen
This week I'm macking on: Philadelphia as a center for new play production. I wrote this article, which appeared in Thursday's Inquirer, about PlayPenn, a new play development workshop that's had an incredible track record with its accepted works. All six plays from the 2007 workshop have been chosen to grace professional stages around the country in 2008-09, and three of those stages are right here in my backyard. Seth Rozin, artistic director of InterAct Theatre, a member of the National New Play Network, and always a champion of new and provocative work, is also revving the engines for a new play initiative (tentatively called, ahem, the Philadelphia New Play Initiative) that will attempt to connect playwrights with producers. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say the scene right now is as full and well-rounded as I've ever seen it, and this concerted effort to seal the leaks by cementing playwriting into our foundation is both well-placed and well-timed. People seem to be sticking around, new, small, quality companies are cropping up all the time, and just as exciting, the companies who have been here all along are still producing, and producing some compelling stuff. It's been a long road, and one that led PlayPenn's Paul Meshijian and me to chuckle about the days when the only thing playing in town was an extended engagement of the Oh! Calcutta! knockoff Let My People Come. Good times.
This week I'm hating on: Uncertainty. So you know how I just mentioned Seth Rozin and new plays? Well okay, I saw one of those new plays this week, Andrew Case's The Rant, and reviewed it here. But the thing is, my companion, a man whose opinion and analysis I trust deeply (And not just because he's my husband. Actually, in spite of that fact.) had a completely different reaction to the production than I did. This is also the first time, after many, many years of playgoing, we've diverged so sharply in our opinions of a show.
The thing is, my analysis gets the public platform, while his sits there burning a hole in my inbox. So here's what he e-mailed back after reading the rough draft of my review:
I don't agree but I think you're fair. The point I took away from the play is that everyone has a rant (a "beef") that's fueled by their perspective, motives and personal history, and this makes it impossible to judge the truth based solely on what people say. So, I think Seth is successful in encouraging discussion. By the way, it's a crime you're given so little space.
He's pretty good, isn't he? And we agree on that last point, anyway.
Needless to say, the whole encounter really threw my sense of critical judgment into a tailspin. Did I somehow miss the point? Could it be possible that our opposing views are equally valid in a situation like this, political theater being polarizing by definition? Ultimately, I decided we're probably in agreement about the production's content, just disagreeing about its execution.
However, if something larger can come of all this navel gazing, it's this: with reviewers being laid off en masse, having a forum in which to turn what was once a static, printed review into a living, breathing, mutating organism might just be the path to our salvation. If print media would commit to making an effort at integrating the cultural conversation into their online content, people like me wouldn't be stuck out here on our own, blogging gratis, and driving traffic away from what rightfully belongs to them. Or at least it once did. Before they gave it away.

Slick and Classy Pixie
Women with short hairstyles tend to often ruff it up and go with a messy look and we often complain that it's hard to do a formal hairstyle without extensions when going short which is not absolutely true.. yes it's a little harder when we look at all the classy longer hairstyles but women tend to shy away from sleeking their hair and combing it into a nice formal hairdo. Use a little hair gel and a fine comb or brush to get the fringe to stay like this. Applying some hairspray afterwards is a must just in case some hair tries to fall out of place.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (April 21, 2009) – USA Volleyball and the City of Anaheim are pleased to announce the agreement to bring the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team (Women's Team) to Anaheim from Colorado Springs has been finalized.
The agreement also designates Anaheim as the Exclusive Official Host City for the USA Men's and Women's National Volleyball Teams through 2016.
During his 2009 State of the City Address, Anaheim Mayor Curt Pringle proposed that the Women's Team should join the U.S. Men's National Volleyball Team (Men's Team) in Anaheim as Southern California's climate and Anaheim's strong community support has proven successful for the Men's Team.
"We couldn't be happier to welcome the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team to Anaheim," said Mayor Pringle. "Since the Men's Team joined our community in 2006, there is no question our residents, businesses and visitors have benefitted from their presence, and will continue to with the addition of the Women's Team. This relocation also enhances Anaheim's resume as a premier environment for world-class sports teams."
"The partnership between the City of Anaheim and the U.S. Men's National Volleyball Team contributed significantly to the gold medal success achieved in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, "said Doug Beal, CEO for USA Volleyball. "It is a tribute to Anaheim's commitment to Olympic sport that they have expanded our existing relationship to also become the Exclusive Official Host of our U.S. Women's National Team – which establishes a proven foundation for the sustained success of both programs as we look to the London 2012 Games and beyond."
"Bringing the Women's Team to Anaheim is a huge positive step for this Team and for USA Volleyball," said U.S. Women's National Team Head Coach Hugh McCutcheon. "The success we had with the U.S. Men's Team at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing was in large part due to us training in Anaheim - and we are confident that bringing the Women here can lead to similar levels of success. Mayor Curt Pringle and the entire city of Anaheim has embraced USA Volleyball and we are extremely grateful for their support. I know that both the U.S. Men's and Women's programs will work tirelessly to represent this city to the best of our ability."
The U.S. Women's Team claimed the silver medal at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, and is currently ranked second in the world. The Team finished 2008 with a record of 22-11. The popularity of women's volleyball is seen throughout the high school, collegiate and club levels. More than 320 Division I universities throughout the country have women's volleyball teams as part of their athletic programs. In addition, nearly 406,000 participants from approximately 15,000 high schools around the country played girls' high school volleyball in 2007. Volleyball is the fourth largest girls' high school sport after basketball, track and field, and softball.
USAV announced last week that Karch Kiraly, Olympian and the most decorated player in the sport of volleyball, has joined McCutcheon and will serve as assistant coach to the Women's Team. This is Kiraly's first foray into coaching at the international level.
"This is an exciting time for me and my family," said Kiraly, a San Clemente resident. "The U.S. Women's Team's move to Anaheim was a factor in my accepting the coaching position. Not only do I get to work with Hugh McCutcheon, and not only are the players tremendously talented, but I also can be close to home. I am thrilled to be a part of the team's future success."
USAV recently announced the appointment of Alan Knipe as head coach for the Men's Team. Knipe succeeds McCutcheon, who accepted the Women's Team head coaching position after leading the Men's Team to a gold medal at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. Knipe is currently finishing the season at Cal State Long Beach, where he has been head coach of the 49ers for the past nine years. Knipe also played on the U.S. Men's Team from 1992-93 and competed at the FIVB World League Tournament.
The City of Anaheim and USA Volleyball are grateful for the support of these local sponsors who have contributed to the success of the U.S. Men's Team and eagerly await the arrival of the U.S. Women: American Sports Centers; Competitive Athletes Training Zone (CATZ); Anaheim White House; JT Schmid's Restaurant & Brewery; PepZ Pizza & Eatery; OC Sports Grill; and numerous Anaheim/OC Visitor and Convention Bureau member hotels.

Penfield girls basketball to see what it can do in field of highly-ranked teams in Myrtle Beach
Penfield basketball forward Margot Hetzke is on the sidelines this weekend with a broken hand, so she is out of the Basketball Coaches Association of New York Summer Hoops Festival.
The two-time Democrat and Chronicle All-Greater Rochester selection expects her right hand, which was injured during a summer league game, to be healed by the second week of September.
That's is plenty of time to head for Myrtle Beach, S.C. with the Patriots for a challenging tournament, just before Christmas.
Penfield, last year's Class AA state tournament runner-up, is one of 16 teams invited to the Holiday Invitational, Dec. 18-22. The tournament includes eight teams in USA Today's state rankings, including Archbishop Carroll, No. 1 in Pennsylvania.
"Everyone is really pumped about it," Hetzke said. "I think we're going to be even better."
Top-ranked Cicero-North Syracuse, which was led by University of Connecticut-recruit Breanna Stewart, defeated Penfield in last season's Class AA state final. The No. 7 Patriots get four of their five starters back, and six of their top seven in the team's 2011-12 rotation.
"We're considered to be one of the best here," Penfield coach Mark Vogt said. "Now we'll see how that translates.
"We don't have a national reputation. We'll probably be one of the lower seeds. No matter what, it's going to be an experience we can't get around here."
Hetzke, who is 5-foot-11, was Penfield's Most Valuable Player last season. She averaged 17.4 points and 8.8 rebounds.
"I just got the cast," Hetzke said. "It kind of stinks that it happened right before summer league was ending."
Free heart screenings: Highland Hospital has free heart screenings for high school and middle school student-athletes on Aug. 25, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. inside its facility at 1000 South Avenue in the city of Rochester.
Students must call 585-784-8821 to make an appointment with their parents' permission, be enrolled in a school and at least 14 years of age. The screenings are to test for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy and additional heart abnormalities.

Clovis-Carver Public Library
" What Money Can't Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets" by Michael Sandell addresses ethical questions such as whether we should pay our children to get good grades, hire mercenaries to fight our wars, pay people to test risky new drugs or to donate their organs; and discusses how we can prevent market values from reaching into spheres of life where they don't belong.

'Carol' film crew loads up on Ohio antiques
The Columbus Dispatch - March 04, 2014 01:17 PM
Era-specific fashions and set designs are, of course, part of the fun of a cinematic period piece. And when film crews for such movies settle into a region for a shoot, they may also end up mining that area's antique stores for props.
That happened late last month at the Ohio Valley Antique Mall in Fairfield, Ohio, where prop buyers from the high-profile production Carol loaded up on 65 pieces of furniture and other odds and ends for the movie.
Starring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara, Carol is set in 1950s New York, but the film will begin shooting in the Cincinnati area in the next couple of weeks to take advantage of Ohio's Motion Picture Tax Credit.
Photo provided by Ohio Valley Antique Mall. Visit their Facebook page or website for more information about the business.
The antique mall's big sale is a concrete example of how the state's special tax credit can benefit Ohioans as well as movie producers.
After big-budget projects such as The Avengers and The Ides of March were shot in Ohio, researchers at Cleveland State University tracked the money that movie productions spent in Ohio and the jobs they brought to the state between 2010 (when the tax credit was put into effect) and 2012.
Candi Clouse, a research associate for Cleveland State's economic development center, told the Cleveland Plain Dealer that for every $1 the state spent on the Motion Picture Tax Credit, $1.20 returned to the state.

If you liked the ion, the gog extcy is a great choice. Same bolt design, but every other part of the gun is upgrade. Nicer feedneck, regulator, board, asa, easier disassembly for maintenance, and the such. I own one and its a great gun for the money if you are buying new. Lots of bang for your buck.
The last gun I used before I stopped playing was a Smart Parts ION I loved it a lot but there hard to find
My only gripe is the stock trigger. I don't like the shape of it. But that's all personal preference. If you don't like it, swap it out with a violent series trigger and you are set.

Best spools under 300 are the shocker, DM7, and quest. You could probably pick up a marq for under 300 too, but those are inline poppits.
This!!! IN my opinion. PM8, SFT Shockers, DM7/6. In that order.

Pm8 was just a dm8 really
the pm8 was just a pm8. it wasn't a dm8 or a dm9.
it used a different LPR system from both the 8 and 9, and despite the misconception it uses the same bolt as the dm9, it still didn't have the same internal milling the dm9 had to take advantage of the smaller bolt system.

Myra J. Press
Gowanda, NY Myra J. Press, 82, of Gowanda, NY passed away Thursday Sept. 5, 2013 at the Gowanda Nursing Home.
She was born March 22, 1931 in Buffalo, NY, the daughter of the late Dr. Curtis and Myra (Fritsch) Johnson.
On April 16, 1977 she married William G. Press, who predeceased her in 1991.

Who are the faceless people? Or rather, what on earth are they advertising? Spotted at Henley, at Wimbledon and at the start of Harrods summer sale. Might it be an ad stunt for cars? No I don't see the connection either - but whois says that http://www.facelesspeople.com/ is owned by Group Lotus Plc, Norwich, Norfolk United Kingdom. That's Group Lotus cars. Wonder what "True Character" will be revealed in 19 days. That car better be good looking as hell after a stunt like that, ya'll.
wtf? I fail to see how that will sell cars, but I DO want one of them masks. I'm going as a faceless person on Halloween.
Side note, it appears that I have angered the spam-trap-widget. Please fix for me dab.
Here they are at Harrods. Looking creepy. I wonder what Kim thought of those guys.
I think it's more dodgy than that. It's the car you've not see, therefore you've not seen it's face.
I could well be wrong. And, as has been mentioned already, I want one of those masks too. That'll freak out the gangs in my neighbourhood.
Nope, it's just slightly different; you've not seen it's true character (so says the site) and the true character of someone is shown in their face.
I don't think so, I reckon someone's true character comes from their actions.
Anyway, I want the mask. :)
Darn it, I commented too many times in a row, or in quick succession, so now I'm spam.
I post and then the other comment appears! Dab, thanks for being superhuman on the repost! Or is my computer lagging?
Countdown now says seventeen days left. CAN'T WAIT! And the car? Oh I think it'll be awesome judging purely on this sneak-peek.
I first time I saw the faceless effect was on Doctor Who. The episode was called The Idiot's Lantern.
I agree, I want a mask! They might make more profit selling the masks than the cars.
Faceless people wearing suits and ties? Add a fedora and it could have been The Question - or The Blank from Dick Tracy.
Why did this win in Cannes?

i've just heard that charlotte, while trying to get some a bag of tea bags from the downstairs stock room the other day, was hit on the head by some boxes that had been placed on top of said bag though further back so she couldn't see them. she was in hospital yesterday evening where it was confirmed she had concussion (she's still feeling faint, tired and occasionally dizzy and sick). (i haven't spoken to lottie directly - this is the story from our mutual friend that took her to hospital).
what someone did in the way the stored items in the stock room was damn dangerous. this needs to not happen again. are there currently any guidelines/training for vollies on how to arrange things in said stockroom? can they be fixed to note this kind of issue?
