A Low-Budget, Sleek & Unusual Kitchen Cabinet Solution
ELLE Decor
Here's a fascinating kitchen, one that did something genuinely different in its pursuit of sleek design and openness at low-budget costs. The owner and designer dispensed with cabinets entirely, and substituted a much lower-cost, creative solution.
The owner of this kitchen wanted unobstructed views of the landscape outside the kitchen, and he also wanted a very flexible and utilitarian kitchen. But after the architect and designer put in banks of windows, there was no room left for storage and upper cabinets.
The designer came up with a very interesting solution. Instead of building in cabinets, he bought restaurant-grade stainless steel tables for about $120 each, and arranged them around the kitchen. To add some closed storage he had mahogany drawers built to fit the shelves of each table.
The entire kitchen is very flexible: the "countertops" can be rolled away from the wall and even taken to a new home someday, if desired.
We think this is so interesting — an entire kitchen created out of steel restaurant tables?

You know, I'm not usually head over heals for stainless steel, but this looks really great! And so easy to clean, you can get to every nook and cranny!
LOVE this!
It's really, really beautiful. The lovely mahogany drawers & wood floors warm up the space. And the light! Oh, the lovely light....
I love the way it looks. Although I wonder if this is really less expensive . . ?
This is a really nice balance, imo, of the stainless restaurant look with a home kitchen space. The wooden drawers warm up the room and make it look more inviting. I kind of want to see the pics from the other side of the room, to see the fridge and maybe some equipment storage.
That spam makes me think of the Bush "poem" called "Make the Pie Higher!"
This does look beautiful. Still, I'm with Anita: I can't imagine it's less expensive to use mahogany, of all things. And aren't there serious questions about the sustainability of it? The stainless is pretty awesome, though, and I love that it can be moved from one home to another as desired.
I'm also not a big fan of stainless and typically go for a warmer look, but it has a science lab feel to it that I really like.
Maybe in low-budget they meant the steel carts? It's the only thing that mentions the price. I don't know how functional that sink is... no dish rack or places to put the plates once they are washed... unless you toss them in the basket underneath!
I like! Except for one thing - resale.
Assuming the owner would take the tables with them, who'd buy a house with no cabinets or countertops?
This is really interesting to me because I just did something like this (though not exactly). I moved into an apartment with a small kitchen but it had room for a dinette. Instead of putting a place to eat, I bought a 24"x48" stainless steel kitchen table from a restaurant supply store. It is great. I have so much counter space now. I may make/buy a set of drawers like that for under it as well (right now there is appliances and empty space).
This is EXACTLY what I would want for my kitchen. Told my Mom a while ago and she thought I was crazy. I'll have to show her this. (o:
I agree with Mister Mau. This kitchen looks wonderful, but even if you leave the tables and drawers behind, I suspect this kitchen design would eliminate a lot of potential buyers from the pool.
If you intend to stay in the house for 15 or more years, maybe that's fine. I definitely wouldn't want to design a kitchen *for* resale, but designing it without considering resale seems a bit foolish.
My husband and I are doing open shelving for our uppers, and we expect to be in the house for 10 or more years. So if, when it comes time to resell, no one cares for those, we can install new uppers. (Our base cabinets are a classic style that should be relatively easy to match.)
Very cool. Who cares what buyers think? Unless, of course, you plan to leave in less than 5 years, in which case, why don't you save the money for a dream home later on?
If I had this kitchen, it would work for me if there were a butler's pantry adjacent.
I'd love to know where these SS tables were purchased for $120! That price is incredibly inexpensive for such tables; I've researched several times over the past few years without that kind of luck.
This kitchen design is really impressive and, if ever given the opportunity, might employ it myself. :)
I love this! I have a stainless steel table (2' X 6' X 3' tall) that currently lives against the wall on the back deck. It serves as a potting table, serving table for parties and outdoor work table (there's an outlet next to it). I'd not given thought to using this in my next kitchen, which will be in a 30' yurt, but a light went on when I saw this. I have a stained plywood unit upstairs that came out of a cast-off camper trailer that would fit inside it perfectly, on the lower shelf. Probably paint them glossy white, though, and of course add ss pulls.
I'm loving this look!
[Actually, two plywood units. Both would fit, one on the floor (enough room to add ss feet), one on the shelf.]
I love this but where do you get restaurant stainless for $120 each? Maybe if you're buying wholesale.
It's rather clever - but so "Form over Function"...
...looks more like an "I ran out of money" solution than anything else, as there's nothing about the height of the windowsills preventing the owner from putting in standard fitted base cabinets. And so much space is wasted - I have a smaller kitchen and couldn't get half of the things I own in that place.
As far as $120/table: There are plenty of restaurants going out of business these days where you can get used kitchen fixtures - Work tables, stoves, sinks, etc. Frequently all they need is some cleanup and they're good as new.
What Palmetto said. Where does one find restaurant-grade stainless-steel tables for $120? Tell me and I'm there.
I think this is a great idea in theory- very attractive and potentially very functional and flexible. But I'm not so impressed by the implementation. It seems to me that if those drawers were actually custom made, they could have been made to fit the tables a lot more seamlessly. I see lots of gaps that waste good storage space and spots for inevitable crumbs to accumulate and food spills to get caught. The stainless tables loose their easy-clean appeal if you have to remove all those drawer units every time you want to give your kitchen a thorough cleaning.
That said, I'd also like to know the source of the $120 stainless restaurant tables. I've never seen such a good price and I've had my eye on these for years.
I like this idea for some things in a kitchen, especially a funky one where counter space is limited to begin with.
That said, some have asked where does one find restaurant tables for cheap? If you google restaurant work tables, you'll find links to suppliers that can sell you tables in the 150-200 or so range, they ARE out there.
I love that they can reconfigure the kitchen on the fly and 'wheel' the counters outside for a thorough scrubbing and hose down. score!
Love the idea, but agree with design 1211,
there seem to be lots of awkward gaps.
I don't like the mahogany mixed with SS,
but that's a personal thing I guess.
This is a very interesting idea, especially for a rental with a weak kitchen. I like it! I have a big, wonderful John Boos kitchen cart with a maple top that I bought when I rented a place with very little counter space. (http://www.kitchensource.com/kitchen-islands/jbcgrande.htm) I designed my new kitchen to incorporate it, and it's my main work surface. It was pricey, but it will last forever and I hope it will stay in the family. It's that good! The only drawback to using a cart with wheels for a work surface is that they are not very stable. They do shake around a little. I kind of wish I'd got it with the plain legs/no wheels. For some reason I love the industrial look of the wheels though. :-)
Honestly, I'd rather have the Ikea free-standing cabinets. I find this to look very unfinished, and the ones on the bottom sitting like file cabinets look like they would be horrible to use in real life. The island drawers are clever, though.
I love the fact that there's a lot of windows but i personally love my classic wood kitchen cabinets

Rogue Male
more1930-something: a professional hunter is passing through an unnamed Central European country that is in the thrall of a vicious dictator. The hunter wonders whether he can penetrate undetected into the dictator's private compound. He does. He has the potential target in his sites and is wondering whether to pull the trigger when security catches up with him. Imprisoned, tortured, doomed to a painful death, the hunter makes an extraordinary and harrowing escape, fleeing through enemy territory to the safety of his native England. But that safety is delusive: his pursuers will not be diverted from their revenge by national borders; the British government cannot protect him without seeming to endorse his deed. The hunter must flee society, and he goes literaly underground, like a fox to its earth. The hunter has become the hunted.
Geoffrey Household's Rogue Male is a classic thriller and a triumph of suspense. Described by Household as a "bastard offspring of Stevenson and Conrad," the book is no less remarkable as an exploration of the lure of violence, the psychology of survivalism, and the call of the wild. less

aminor said: On opera pumps: pumps were invented for men by men. There were worn from at least the time of Louis the XIV until the mid-19th century by men and men exclusively. There's even references to men's pumps in "Taming of the Shrew" and "Midsummer Night's Dream". Ladies learned a long time ago that just because a man does it, doesn't mean they can't do it either. It's about time men learned the same lesson. Grow up people.

Frankly, most people who think they're too feminine have never seen them in practice. The reality is that when worn, they look simple and clean, not feminine.

Don't cry before I leave,
Don't say you'll miss me,
Don't say you loved me,
Just say you care,
Just tell me It'll be alright.
Don't cry before I leave,
Don't say you'll miss me,
Don't say you loved me,
Just say you care,
Just tell me It'll be alright.
I miss my friends Coccolare and Silly-Go-Round~
I don't know where's all my time gone~
Do you have a little wish,
One that I can grant?
Do you have a secret book,
That I can read, alone?
Do you have a silent whisper,
That no one has heard before?
Can you tell me something,
That will make you all mine?
Do you feel the sun shine
Warming our curled toes?
Do you hear the birds cry
Notes of passioned love?
Do you hear the silent smile
As I melt into your skin?
I don't care if you think she's pretty,
I don't care if you think she's smart,
I don't care if you think she's funny,
Cuz I don't need to be perfect -
Just tell me I'm pretty, too,
Just tell me I'm smart, too,
Just tell me I'm funny, too,
And I promise I'll be content.
Isn't it strange? The way I miss you?
Isn't it strange? The way I love you?
Isn't it strange? The way I want you?
I miss you all the time
but I won't call you,
I love you all the time
but I won't tell you,
I want you exactly as you are
at that very moment, just —
Baby we're still alive -
we're still alive and kicking it
back on the couch
relaxing with my boo
It's all I wanna do,
We're moving as fast as we needa
Nothing's gonna make me leave
any sooner than I need to.
What imma be doing as soon as I finish this paper: 2 paragraphs down. 10 pages to go. Sigh, Hope you'all are enjoying your break/ good luck on exams (and papers!) :)
Exactly one week from now, summer break officially starts for me!
Thank you!
Yearning for the warm sands,
Sitting in the cool sun,
Wet salt hitting my cheeks -
For now I'll settle
For sunny yellow on my toes.
I wanna go here!
It's funny how life works, isn't it? How often do you meet a person that you think you can share everything with? To be completely honest and loyal and truthful. To put them before you, not because you should, but because you want to.
But love isn't easy. You can't read minds, or make them talk to you. They cover what may hurt, but it hurts more to know they hid it in the first place.
In the end you can only ask for as much as they're willing to give. As much as you're willing to receive. As much as you're willing to let go.
I heard you,
when you thought I didn't
I heard you,
when you thought I hung up
I heard you,
even though you didn't repeat it
I heard you,
say "I love you"
Stranger with your pretty eyes,
Why do you look at me so?
Filled with amber love,
Looking at me with swirly eyes,
Can you see me?
Do you see me?
I am not a pretty face -
There's lots in the world I'd like to change,
What happens if I want to change you, too?
Will you still look with your pretty eyes
only at me?
Will you tollerate my moods?
WIll you tell me when I'm wrong?
Will you stay strong for me?
Stranger, I want to know,
Will you come closer?

Get Your Kid Off the Couch!
Pediatrician Dr. Cara's tips for motivating kids to exercise and get fit.
Inspiring kids to exercise is no small feat. I think the very best approach is to empower them, emphasizing that this is about health rather than looks, and that they are developing habits that will last a lifetime.
Young children tend to get more exercise than their older peers. This is because most of what they do in their free time involves running around and being physical.
• Limit TV time and restrict access to computers for your school-aged kids.
If you do this, your kids are less likely to sit and more likely to move.
• Label exercise.
Point out that by running around and playing, your child is getting the exercise she needs. If you start emphasizing this concept at a young age, your child will learn that exercise doesn't need to be a chore.
Kids in this age group go one of two ways. A small group become local elite athletes--in organized sports, these kids play for the school team or the club team; in non-organized sports (like dance, for instance), they begin to practice several times per week and perform more often. The majority of pre-teens, though, see a significant drop in exercise. They participate in PE at school but have difficulty finding time or access to other forms of exercise.
• Implement the 5-day-per-week rule.
The goal for adequate exercise is 30 continuous minutes (or more!) of huffing and puffing 3-5 times per week. Make your child responsible for keeping track by using a calendar to mark off days when he gets exercise. The exercise can include just about anything: playing a sport, running around the yard, jumping rope, jumping on a trampoline, taking a yoga or dance class, taking the family dog for a brisk walk or jog, and so on.
• Get in the act, too.
Moms should follow the same routine, not just because it models the behavior but because it is good for you as well as your kids. I find that when parents carve out an exercise "session" with their child at least once a week, it serves as a great time to catch up and learn about what is going on in their child's life.
Here's where it all tends to fall apart. Teenagers are often saddled with homework and have very little time for formal exercise. When they do have free time, they would prefer to be socializing with friends. There is a group of athletes in this age bracket that get plenty of exercise, but even these kids may have months when a sport is out of season and their exercise routine drops to zero. Teens are also much more likely to waste away their free hours in front of the computer or texting on the phone.
Set the exercise rule in your house.
Enforce 30 minutes or more of continuous exercise 3-5 times per week. Teens often complain that they don't like to exercise because they think it is a task. But they typically have a good amount of flexibility--they can drive or get rides or travel using public transportation unsupervised--and so the types of exercise available to them are different from when they were younger.
Encourage your child to find something he likes to do.
If he understands that exercising is a life-long necessity, he may be more motivated to learn to enjoy it.

How do you get your kids to exercise?
Ick! I can't even look at that picture of those fat kids…it's disgusting.
I use to be one of those kids and I wish I wssn't. It hurt when people tease or make negative comments. Kids go through alot, at 12 I was responsible to taking care of my brothers after school, both my parents work, no to memntion my mom checked out of reality. Which lead me to alot of days of overeating to comfort the pain I was feeling.
I am not saying its ok to be fat but some people have actual problems that prevent them from getting a workout i believe as long as you are confident with yourself and your body then you aree just fine.

Office Mix offers a simple way to turn your PowerPoint slides into interactive online lessons and presentations.

DIY Aloe Vera Solution for Shiny, Frizz-Free Hair
I was making my regular rounds in the Green Organic Natural Simple Living group (love that group!) and came across one mom's DIY aloe vera solution for dry, frizzy hair.
CBMMOM writes:
"I got sunburned a couple weeks ago and made great discovery. I made a spritz for my sunburned face to keep it from peeling. I also sprayed some in my hair because my scalp was burned too at the part.
To my surprise, my hair was soft and shiny and amazingly frizz free. It works on wet or dry hair. I made some for my friend who has very thick hair. She loves it. She stopped buying the expensive junk trying to control her hair. BTW, my hair is very fine. It makes your skin softer too.
Anyway, all it is aloe vera juice and a few drops of essential oil for fragrance. You can buy the aloe vera juice at Walmart for about $7 a gallon. Great price!!! Essential oils are sold at health food stores or the grocery store in the organics and natural food area. Also, there are a lot of good deals online, like at Puritan's Pride."
Wow, that's so easy and cheap too!!!
And I believe in the powers of aloe vera! I got a really bad sunburn on my forehead the weekend before my best friend's wedding, in which I was to be maid of honor. The sunburn was so bad that it scabbed over! I started applying aloe vera right away, and it was miraculously healed for the wedding.
Thanks for the hair tip, CBMMOM!

- aloe vera juice - drink 1/4 glass 3 x a day preferably on an empty stomach

Of Orcs and Men gets Four New Screens SuperCheats News
Three new preview images of the upcoming RPG Of Orcs and Men that is being jointly developed for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC by Cyanide Studios have just become available!
These first images give an early preview into a brutal world at war, where the Empire of Men�s oppressive threat looms over the territories of the Orcs and the Goblins. Goblins are systematically persecuted and slaughtered, while Orcs not killed in battle are captured and enslaved.
Of Orcs and Men first puts you into the role of an elite Orc soldier from the legendary legion of Bloodjaws, a league of warriors deeply involved in the war opposing the Orcs and Goblins on one side to their persecutors, Humankind. As a veteran warrior who has seen the most brutal of battles, you are appointed by the Orc commander to complete a mission that could change the course of the war: kill the one man responsible for all of this bloodshed, the one who has, for years, exhorted the human masses to loath and fight the green-skinned people: the Emperor himself.
A Goblin will soon join you to aid you in your mission� he is everything the Orc is not. But you find that this works to your advantage as you fight on the battleground and off. Making advantage of their natural traits, they have their own skill trees you will develop. While the Orc focuses on power, reflecting his incredible strength, the Goblin will benefit from darker powers and stealth abilities, making him the perfect assassin.
From the filthy alleys at the foot of the Great Wall, to the depths of the Empire of Men, your two infiltrated heroes will face the greatest dangers through their epic quest. They will commune with the Wizards, fight the assassins and soldiers of the Empire of Men, and oppose the powerful Sisters of Laments.
As the world falls into chaos and you face a cruel and merciless humanity bent on eternal persecution of Orcs and Goblins, your unlikely duo will have one last chance to change the course of History and, hopefully, bringing peace between your peoples.
Of Orcs and Men is scheduled for a Spring 2012 release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

Sold a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $275K in Crystal Lake, IL.
Cindy is an up-beat, positive and on-the-ball realtor. We felt comfortable letting her represent us with our home. We also felt comfortable having her in our home. A great realtor, but an even greater lady!

Bought a home in 2010.
What a pleasure Cindy is to work with. I first met her a couple of years ago, when I had found the "home of my dreams". This house was a foreclosure and after an extremely bad experience with a couple of other realtors on other homes in the area, I was fortunate enough to speak with Cindy. The home was listed and within a couple of days of being listed, I had called the listing agent to request a showing -- luckily the listing person was not available and I was transferred to Cindy. She immediately opened her schedule up for me and we were able to visit the home within a couple of hours. We fell in love, Cindy had come with several specifics on the home, the neighborhood and comparison information in the area. We put an offer in that evening and within less than 48 hours, she had made contact with the bank and returned their counter offer -- within 72 hours of first meeting we were under contract. Our closing took place within 45 days!! Her persistence, dedication and knowledge of the industry was an extreme breath of fresh air.... we had literally tried to place offers on 5 other homes in a 2 year span of time with 4 other realtors and each experience was arduous and ultimately did not work out due to the other agents not being able to navigate through the short sale/foreclosure climate we are all faced with in this economy -- We were so very pleased with and thankful to Cindy for making this transaction painless and very enjoyable!! The way that buying a home should be.... she is wonderful and someone I have referred to several friends and family members. She is the best in her field!!!

We just closed on our home and used Cindy as our realtor. The service she provided was excellent. Her overall knowledge of the home buying experience was exceptional and her follow up and response time was immediate. This along with her upbeat and witty personality made our experience an absolute pleasure. We will definitely use her for our next real estate transaction and would highly recommend her to anyone!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! This is the only realtor you will ever need.
Cindy was very ENTHUSIASTIC and FRIENDLY upon contacting her and these characteristics never faltered. She is easy to talk to and worked diligently to help us find, not only the home that fit our lifestyle, but most importantly our income.
If you want a realtor who care about her clients, Cindy is that realtor.

Listed, but didn't sell my Single Family home in 2013 in Fox River Grove, IL.
Cindy was a pleasure to work with in the sale of our home. From my initial phone contact with her I felt comfortable in working with her. It is apparent that she loves what she does. She is honest and her response time to any question or request was immediate. I have already recommended Cindy to others and would not hesitate to work with her again.
Response from Cindy on 10/11/2013
Thank you so much user "83817878". Loved working with you. All though I did sell your home your right the co-op broker brought in the buyer. Who I might add loves it! They say "thank you' for all the little extras you graciously gave them. I'll miss you....

Cindy McDowall went above and beyond to find, negotiate and finalize the deal of our dream home. All the requirements that we gave Cindy, she took into consideration and found our dream home.

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $250K in Crystal Lake, IL.
As experienced home buyers, but not familiar with the area we were purchasing in, Cindy was perfect for us. She provided excellent expertise, professionalism and knowledge of the market throughout our entire home buying process. It was evident from the start that Cindy was working for our best interests and not just trying to make a sale. She was always responsive, cheerful, timely and honest - someone we truly trusted with such a life investment. We have owned 5 homes in different areas and Cindy has surpassed every realtor we have ever worked with. We couldn't give her a higher recommendation!

Flybridge Yachts Review
Flybridge yachts can be used as fishing and sporting boats as well as for entertaining on extended trips. The flybridge yachts are big enough for coastal group parties or for families gatherings or office groups to take on longer voyages. These yachts have hulls that are typically made from six layers of fiberglass, wood or composite. Flybridge yachts sleep around 9 people on a 58 foot model in a well laid out floor plan and option selections. More room can be obtained by selecting the optional stern crew quarters and convertible salon sofa. A complete working galley with home like amenities are found on most flybridge yachts. The v-berth and is convertible to a double berth for overnight trips. The average size of a flybridge yacht is between 55 and 125 feet, which can comfortably house 6 to 12 passengers. Twin inboard motors typically power the flybridge yachts. These yachts are intended for people who like coastal entertaining and extended voyages with a few close people. Amenities are numerous and depend on which options the owner selects. Some amenities include a sunning deck, large aft lounge, ample entertainment areas, convertible berthing units, electronic upper helm panel, retractable flat screen tv, wet bar, cooler, and swim platform. Permare and Gianetti are both well known producers of quality flybridge yachts. Used models are available for around $350,000, while newer models run well over $6,000,000.

Nearly half of the Australian women's basketball squad are battling injury and coach Jan Stirling says she will carefully manage the Opals over the coming days in order to avoid a loss to New Zealand.
Seven of 18 athletes are unable to train at full strength and may not be ready to play in either of two international `friendlies' scheduled for this weekend at the AIS in Canberra.
"Obviously our medical team are juggling a few athletes," coach Stirling said.
Erin Phillips (knee) and Renae Camino (ankle), Natalie Porter (ankle), Abby Bishop (foot), Jenna O'Hea (foot), Carly Wilson (hamstring) and Russia-based star Suzy Batkovic (ankle) are the players carrying injuries.
Stars Lauren Jackson, Penny Taylor and five other world champion Opals have remained in Europe under contractual obligations.
"It's pretty challenging at the moment," Stirling said.
"We're monitoring them on a day-to-day basis."
Despite the injury concerns, Stirling said the vibe in camp was positive.
"It's terrific actually. The sessions have been very physical but we're three months out from an Olympics, so that's the way we want it," she said.
A squad of 12 will be selected at the conclusion of the AIS camp to attend the Good Luck Beijing 2008 test event in China from April 19-26, where Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Cuba, Korea and China will compete.

"Where are you from?" This is a question I have received countless times. If I had a dime for every time I was asked this question, I'd be rich.
While animal testing is essential, it should not be conducted in a thoughtless manner – thoughtlessness is a form of cruelty unto itself, as animals are living, feeling creatures and have a right to life without unnecessary pain.
Most of us have procrastinated at some point or another (and if you have not, I am pretty sure you are a robot). It is easy to get bogged down in work, especially at this point in the semester. The key is to manage the urge to put off tasks and not to allow it to consume your schedule.
Recent events are causing me to question whether we are living in the 21st century or the Middle Ages. From Michigan's newly instated "rape insurance" policy to the "backlog of 11,000 untested rape kits" in Detroit as reported by MSNBC, the historical pattern in which women pay the price for events outside of their control continues.
Smiles are contagious, or at least those are the results of a study conducted in Sweden at Uppsala University. Yale Scientific Magazine reports, "They found that genuine smiles directly induced smiles from the participants."
"Are you listening?" This is one of the most common questions that someone will be asked during their relationships, whether familial, romantic or professional. Our efficiency in communicating is very poor. We focus on talking, not listening.
Stress is an inescapable part of life, but its accumulation is detrimental to our health. Its toll on our bodies, however, could be eased if only there was a place where students could get away from the hubbub of life and just enjoy the blessed silence.
At one point or another, many of us have joked about having the attention span of a goldfish. The joke "I'm ADD, attention deficit dis… hey look, a butterfly!" and others like it make light of what is actually an overall culture of distraction.
The ability to multitask is arguably the most desirable skill to possess in today's day and age. Whether in an academic or a professional setting, one's ability to manage a large task load and high stress situations is seen a positive attribute.
But despite our cultural preference, our internal biochemistry does not thank us for the ever-increasing amounts of stress we overload ourselves with.
Humans naturally have the inclination to categorize the world around us, whether we are determining shapes, sizes, colors, fruits or people. While it is a natural cognitive process, it becomes problematic when the classifications become stereotypes.
Sometimes it's overwhelming to think of all the things there are to do: complete undergrad, go on to grad school, start a successful career, spend time with family and friends, eat well, find the time to work out (Work out? No one has time for that!) and a million other things on the list.
With the Centers for Disease Control reporting that in 2011 only 31 percent of high schoolers attended physical education class daily, it seems to be a pretty common sentiment that physical and health education classes are a poorly executed joke.
At some point or another, most of us have longed for circumstances other than our own. Whether we admire someone's wealth, status, education or relationship, the feeling of desire is the same.
I love college.
You know why? Because of the opportunities it gives those of us fortunate enough to be here.
Students should actively take advantage of the possibilities this time offers.
This year's TruEMU campaign features several successful alumni. One of the power statements of the selected alumni proclaims, "I manifest my own destiny." This may seem like a harmless statement in today's context. It means that the individual is taking charge of her life to make her dreams a reality.
After my shift driving the golf cart ended at work, I walked inside to get a drink. A woman approached me and touched my arm. She smiled and said, "I cannot tell you how excited I was to see you driving!" My initial reaction was confusion. What was she talking about? She continued, "It's so wonderful that you are able to live here and have the freedom to drive."
"Man, you're whipped." "Who's wearing the pants?" "Man up." These are the sorts of negative phrases that, if not directly said to impressionable young men, are passed on to them through media as cultural expectations of what it means to be a man.
Everyone has heard about the gender gap faced by women around the world.
During my college career, I would have to say the biggest complaint I've heard voiced among students is that we all want nap time.
In today's advanced, fast-paced, globalized world, we favor quick fixes and immediate solutions. This culture applies to the world of medicine in addition to broader societal norms: If you've got a medical problem, just solve it with pharmaceuticals. This ideology is especially prevalent in America.
What a wonderful way to honor distinguished alumni. ...
Why does the Echo staff continue to let this lecturer ...
This did not happen at the YTC. It was a block away. ...
A loss, but also an $850,000 payday.

Disabled residents urge RT to save paratransit services
Many disabled local residents who regularly ride paratransit buses were among the approximately 250 people who turned out for a Monday afternoon public hearing on proposed cuts to Sacramento's Regional Transit.
The disabled transit riders — which included many people in wheelchairs — urged the RT board of directors to maintain paratransit services.
In the 2011 fiscal year, RT predicts it will have a $25 million budget gap according to a statement on the RT website. The statement notes that RT has been hammered by low revenues from state and local taxes, as well as by the state's discontinuation of State Transit Assistance funding. In addition, the statement points out that furloughs and the high unemployment rate have resulted in RT taking in less money from fares.
The board is analyzing nine different ways it could make cuts to balance its budget. RT is planning for layoffs to be part of the budget cuts.
RT's board of directors will make a decision on budget cuts at its March 22 meeting. The cuts would take effect June 20.
At Monday's hearing, many people waited in line outside the RT building at N and 29th Streets to enter the meeting rooms. Once the hearing room was filled, RT officials opened up several nearby rooms so that people could watch the hearing on televisions. At least 250 people attended the meeting, according to Mike Mattos, RT's chief of facilities and business support.
Beverly King, who has used paratransit since 1979, said she started crying when she addressed the RT board. She said outside the meeting that she appreciates the service, and does not have an alternate transit service that she can use.
"We won't be able to do things on the weekends," King said.
Lilyann Mitchell told the board that the late civil rights activist Rosa Parks would have wanted the board to maintain services for disabled transit riders.
Mitchell was a personal friend of Parks — their friendship was the subject of a 2005 Sacramento Bee article.
Mitchell said that Parks, if she was still alive, would have said to the RT board: "Please do not deny the services of all these handicapped people."
RT works with a private firm, Paratransit, Inc., to provide transit service for disabled residents.
There are no proposals to cut all paratransit services, according to Alane Masui, assistant general manager of marketing and communications for RT. While cuts are planned, the entire service would not be shut down, Masui said.
Kathleen Haley is a staff reporter for The Sacramento Press.

TTH 930am-1100am RLM 7.112
This course has a writing flag.
This new Plan II junior seminar concentrates on the physical principles that underlie technical issues in national and global security. The course is aimed at students interested in security matters who have a background in quantitative methods. The relevant physical principles will be developed in class and reading, and applied to modern security problems involving such topics as nuclear weapons, space, surveillance, and communications. The purpose is to provide analytical tools and experience for students to understand and to be able to critically evaluate the technical facts that underlie important national policy issues.
Scientific topics to be covered include:
- Applications of Newton's laws to rockets, earth-bound satellites and missile defenses
- Applications of Einstein's special relativity to clocks, radar, the global positioning system and nuclear energy
- Other topics as time permits
Familiarity with calculus is recommended.
Readings will include reports on specific national security matters, such as the recent American Physical Society report on missile defense (http://prola.aps.org/abstract/RMP/v76/i4/p1307_1), the AAAS report on new nuclear weapon designs (http://cstsp.aaas.org/files/RL32929.pdf), the Garwin Archive at the Federation of American Scientists (http://www.fas.org/rlg/) and textbooks such as Physics for Future Presidents: The Science Behind the Headlines by Richard A. Muller and Megawatts and Megatons: The Future of Nuclear Power and Nuclear Weapons by Richard L. Garwin and Georges Charpak.
The seminar will consist of lectures and discussion with regular problem assignments and quizzes on the physics material developed in class. The second major effort in the seminar will be the preparation of a term paper and a class presentation on the scientific basis, credibility and outstanding questions related to some national security issue or technical approach that could be applied to national security. 50% of the grade will be based on the term paper, presentation, and participation in class; 25% will be based on problem assignments and 25% on quizzes.
About the Professor
Dr. Roy Schwitters, S.W. Richardson Professor of Physics, received his Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1971. He currently works in experimental high energy physics and large scale detectors.

A police officer and stranded driver were injured Friday morning when their vehicles were hit by a swerving pickup.
The police officer had stopped to help a Toyota that had broken down in the middle turn lane of Fort Campbell Boulevard near Gate 1 of the post, Clarksville officer Natalie Hall said in an email.
The officer got in the center lane, turned on the cruiser's blue lights and waited for a tow truck to arrive.
The driver of a Ford pickup was heading north on the road, swerved to the right, went off the road, then came back across traffic and hit the rear of the Toyota, Hall said.
The crash pushed the Toyota into the police car. The stranded driver was taken to the hospital. The police officer complained of knee problems, and his supervisor took him to the hospital, Hall said.
The pickup driver was cited for reasonable care. Police are not yet releasing the names of the drivers involved.

2 Recipes For a Heart-Healthy Mother's Day Brunch
Written on May 10, 2013 at 9:24 am , by Karla Walsh
There are few better ways to show mom how much you care than breakfast in bed. That tray of goodies—perhaps pancakes with sausage or Eggs Benedict—sure tastes great, but may not be too nice for her health, though.
New research found that a meat-free diet can cut risk for heart disease by 32 percent, so the two vegan recipes below from The China Study Cookbook, will keep mom's heart happy, too. By the way, all of the dishes in the book are not only vegetarian, but vegan!
Scrumptious Apple-Filled Turnovers
Serves 8
- 3½–4 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
- 1 tablespoon Sucanat
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 2½ teaspoons instant (fast rise) yeast
- 1½ cups warm water
- 3 cups apples, diced finely
- ½ cup walnuts, chopped
- ¾ cup raisins
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- Mix all the turnover ingredients together in a bowl. Knead with your hands for 8–10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Separate into 8 balls; cover, and let rise for 40 minutes.
- Once turnovers are covered, prepare filling by mixing all ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and set aside.
- After 40 minutes, roll out each ball to a diameter of about 3 inches. Place one heaping tablespoon of filling into the center. For each turnover, fold the edges together to form a half moon. Pinch the edges together with a fork so there are no openings.
- Preheat oven to 425˚F.
- Let your turnovers rise on the counter for 15 minutes, then place turnovers on nonstick baking sheet.
- Bake at 425˚F for 20–25 minutes.

Whip Up a Guilt-Free Mother's Day Breakfast This Weekend
Written on May 11, 2012 at 9:00 am , by Colleen Travers
Want to spoil Mom this weekend with some breakfast in bed? Devin Alexander, author of The Biggest Loser Cookbook and The Most Decadent Diet Ever shared two of her favorite recipes with us to treat her taste buds without the side of guilt. Try one of these this weekend for a better-for-you brunch. Don't forget to tell her to share with the cook!
Chocolate Chip Pancakes
Devin Says: These pancakes are chock full of chocolate chips, so I prefer them without butter. If you like a more buttery taste with just a hint of chips, use only 1 tablespoon of chips and spread 1 teaspoon of light butter over the top of each pancake. You'll add 17 calories and 2 g of fat per teaspoon. You'll also notice that the recipe calls for very little syrup. Each teaspoon has 17 calories and 0 g of fat. And remember–pancakes have much more sodium than most people realize. If you get even a half stack at your local pancake house, you're probably eating more than half of your sodium allowance for a day. That said, I usually eat only one or two pancakes for breakfast as a treat to follow an egg white dish instead of eating a big plate of them. You may want to do the same, since pancakes require baking soda and salt to rise, and thus I couldn't reduce the sodium much here.
- 1 egg white, lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 1/2 cup whole-grain oat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
- Butter-flavored cooking spray
- 4 teaspoons pure maple syrup, divided

Korean automakers like Hyundai continue to make inroads in Japan against domestic manufactures like Toyota, Nissan, and Honda. Hyundai Motor Japan, which has been doing business in Tokyo since 2001, sells six models with its high-end Grandeur (Azera) costing a little over $29,000. However, states a salesperson, "It (Grandeur) does not pale in comparison with Japanese cars of the same class in terms of quality and equipment. But the price of the car is about 1 million yen ($8,547) less."
Quality products at low prices have also helped the automaker worldwide. According to Business Week, Hyundai Motors ranked third in global corporate brand value for 2006, just after Toyota and Honda but ahead of Nissan. South Korean auto exports to Nippon nearly quadrupled in the past ten years, as well. Hyundai alone hopes to double its sales in the country in 2006 and plans to increase its dealerships from 57 to 70 within three years.

@GordonEndersby: Now that you mention it, that does sound reasonable. I also read somewhere that when you include one of the included libraries inside of a personal library, it only includes the .h file and not the .cpp file. I'm not sure if this is entirely true, but it would explain the errors.
EDIT: I would still like to know how to succesfully do what I was trying to do, just for the sake of learning.

Kopernik Fellows are insightful, adaptive, entrepreneurial quick thinkers seeking hands-on experience in international development. Fellows volunteer for three months or more, either in the last mile or at Kopernik headquarters in Bali, Indonesia.
In the last mile:
- Kopernik Fellows work with our local partners in Asia, Africa, or the Pacific to support the implementation or assess the impact of a Kopernik project.
- They become socio-economic researchers, supply chain managers, trainers, troubleshooters, data analysts, report writers, photographers, bloggers, interpreters, and honorary members of the local community.
At Kopernik HQ:
- Kopernik Fellows work with our team on projects requiring specialised skills.
- Former fellows have lent their skills to software development, videography, school outreach, fundraising and communications.
What makes a great Kopernik Fellow?
Our fellows have included graduate students, recent graduates and professionals from a range of backgrounds. To thrive in this role, we are looking for people who:
- Are insightful, adaptive, entrepreneurial quick thinkers with leadership skills and humility.
- Have graduated from university with a Bachelor degree. Graduate studies are a plus.
- Have skills in appropriate technology or a relevant language.
- Have experience in conducting quantitative research, analysing data and writing reports.
- Have a proven passion for international development.
- Have experience in last mile locations and enjoy the challenge of living with limited access to electricity, running water and the internet.
The lowdown from former fellows
"Going to western Kenya as a Kopernik Fellow was a unique experience in every sense of the word. For three months, I was immersed in an exotic country where I performed impact assessments of previous projects and carried out research to determine the best distribution strategy for future projects. Thus, I crossed paths (and makeshift bridges) with people from all walks of life, which revealed life stories from a dimension that I have never known before. In addition to furthering my passion in appropriate technology, the fellowship stretched my resourcefulness to unprecedented levels: successfully navigating the public transport network in rural Kenya as a solo female traveller is a personal triumph to me. All in all, I am very glad that Kopernik gave me this opportunity to challenge myself while contributing to international development!"
Denise Law- Kenya, 2013
"I wanted experience implementing rural projects, working on M&E issues and being based 'in the field.' I feel like I gained a lot of skills and confidence in M&E and program management. I was also pleasantly surprised by how much blogging contributed to what I got out of the experience – I loved having an outlet to process my experiences, especially in the absence of a strong collegial environment. I was thrilled with the support I received from Kopernik. I was concerned with being based so remotely, but I felt I had as much access to my immediate supervisor and Kopernik staff as I needed/wanted. I loved conducting the assessments for the opportunity they provided to learn a little bit more about the customers. I also really enjoyed working on the drip irrigation installations – it was the first job I had that was so hands on."
Annie O'Brien - India, 2011
"The fellowship is a job that does require certain organisation and communication skills. But more important than training, the job needs someone who is driven and detail oriented, and inquisitive and adaptable, and of course very social. All the work is through people, as the path to sustainable projects is for all the capacity and all the management to be done eventually by the local partner. Every fellow is put in a different situation and will probably face different scenarios. I don't think a similar experience to a Kopernik fellowship exists, and a fellow will have to do a lot of thinking and decision-making on his/her feet. All the fresh experiences gained from all the different parts of the program become skills that he/she can use in the future (it's not unlike starting a business, but of course not quite as crazy). The fellowship definitely 'builds character', to quote."
Michael Woon -Timor-Leste, 2010
