Foreign Affairs; Saving The Lost World
In a few weeks many of the Seattle protesters will reassemble in Washington D.C. to throw rocks at the I.M.F. and the World Bank, denouncing them as agents of global corporate greed that is spoiling the environment and leaving the poor behind. The protesters are no doubt sincere, but the truth is the I.M.F. and World Bank are neither the problem nor the solution. They are bit players, of declining importance, in a much larger drama. The real drama is on the ground in the developing world, n...

PIPES: Stay out of the Syrian morass
West has more to lose than gain by intervening
As the Syrian government makes increasingly desperate and vicious efforts to keep power, pleas for military intervention, more or less on the Libyan model, have become more insistent. This course is morally attractive, to be sure. But should Western states follow this counsel? I think not.
Those calls to action fall into three main categories: a Sunni Muslim concern for co-religionists, a universal humanitarian interest in stopping torture and murder, and a geopolitical worry about the impact of the ongoing conflict. The first two motives can be dispatched fairly easily.
If Sunni governments - notably those of Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar - choose to intervene on behalf of fellow Sunnis against Alawis, that is their prerogative, but Western states have no dog in this fight. Generalized humanitarian concerns face problems of veracity, feasibility and consequence. Anti-regime insurgents appear responsible for at least some atrocities. Western electorates may not accept the loss of blood and treasure required for humanitarian intervention. Such intervention must succeed quickly - say within a year. The successor government may (as in the Libyan case) turn out to be even worse than the existing totalitarianism.
Together, these factors argue compellingly against humanitarian intervention. Foreign-policy interests should take precedence because Westerners are not so strong and safe that they can look at Syria only out of concern for Syrians; rather, they must view the country strategically, putting a priority on their own security.
Robert Satloff of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy has helpfully summarized in the New Republic reasons why a Syrian civil war poses dangers to U.S. interests: The Assad regime could lose control of its chemical and biological arsenal; it could renew the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) insurgency against Ankara; it could regionalize the conflict by pushing its Palestinian population across the Jordanian, Lebanese and Israeli borders; and it could fight the Sunnis of Lebanon, reigniting the Lebanese civil war. Sunni jihadi warriors, in response, could turn Syria into the global nexus of violent Islamist terrorism - one bordering NATO and Israel. Finally, Mr. Satloff worries that a protracted conflict gives Islamists greater opportunities than does one that ends quickly.
To which I reply: Yes, the weapons of mass destruction could go rogue, but I worry more about their ending up in the hands of an Islamist successor government. A renewed PKK insurgency against the hostile government ruling Turkey, or increased Sunni-Alawi tensions in that country hardly rank as major Western concerns. Expelling Palestinians would barely destabilize Jordan or Israel. Lebanon is already a balkanized mess, and, in contrast to the 1976-91 period, internal fighting under way there only marginally affects Western interests. The global jihad effort has limited resources; the location may be less than ideal, but what better than for it to fight Iran's Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps to the death in Syria?
As for time working against Western interests, even if the Syrian conflict ended immediately, I foresee almost no prospect of a multiethnic and multireligious government emerging. Whether sooner or later, after Mr. Assad and his lovely wife decamp, Islamists will attempt to seize power, Sunnis will take vengeance, and regional tensions will play out within Syria.
Also, overthrowing the Assad regime does not mean the sudden end of Syria's civil war. More likely, Mr. Assad's fall will lead to Alawi and other Iranian-backed elements resisting the new government. Moreover, as Gary C. Gambill of the Middle East Forum points out, Western military involvement could embolden opposition to the new government and prolong the fighting. Finally, as earlier was the case in Iraq, protracted conflict in Syria offers some geopolitical advantages:
It lessens the chances of Damascus starting a war with Israel or reoccupying Lebanon.
It increases the chances that Iranians, living under the thumb of the mullahs who are Assad's key ally, will draw inspiration from the Syrian uprising and likewise rebel against their rulers.
It inspires greater Sunni Arab anger at Tehran, especially as the Islamic Republic of Iran has been providing arms, finance and technology to help repress Syrians.
It relieves the pressure on non-Muslims. Indicative of the new thinking, Jordanian Salafi leader Abou Mohamad Tahawi recently stated, "The Alawi and Shia coalition is currently the biggest threat to Sunnis, even more than the Israelis."
It foments Middle Eastern rage at Moscow and Beijing for supporting the Assad regime. Western interests suggest staying out of the Syrian morass.

Feeling unloved
Find a Conversation
Tue, 03-20-2012 - 9:38pm |
When I was in college, I'd say about half of my days were like that. My circle of friends was led by a mean girl, and there were a few others who followed suit. If I wanted friends and a life, though, I had to hang out with them. Now it only hits me once or twice a month. I'll text a friend and get no response, or try to make plans and everyone is busy, or, like today, I'll realize that the only people I've spoken to in three days are cashiers. Everyone is out of town with their families or just busy.
I'm sure I'll be out of the funk tomorrow. I just hate it when it hits me and I realize I don't have someone I can call or see - like a boyfriend or husband - to help me through it.
Thu, 03-22-2012 - 7:54am |
I don't have children, and there are three women I get together with (former co-workers) a few times a year for lunch. They all have children, and oftentimes the bulk of the conversation revolves around their kids. I have to admit it's pretty boring to me after a certain point. Luckily, we have career in common, so we can talk about that too (among other topics of course). I still want to get together with them, I feel like I'm the odd one for not being interested in kid stuff (two of them have grown children, one has little kids). But I also get that they want to talk about their kids--especially to other mothers.
Several years ago, I began a gratitude journal, and it really changed the way I looked at my female friendships. I began to be grateful for the time they did spend with me. Trust me, I would have never thought I would feel this way. It really took the edge off, and I was no longer angry. I have to realize they have never really known what it's like to be single for a long time, especially at midlife. Their lives are in a set groove, they are on the path of marriage-kids-college-kids' weddings-grandkids. They aren't thinking about me being lonely on a Saturday night.
In addition, I think it is encumbant on the single woman to constantly be seeking out new friendships. It's hard, but it can be done. I also think it's encumbant on the single woman to keep some friendships going. Again, that used to make me angry and hurt, but I decided to get over it, and I became the one who mostly suggested we get together and the one who conformed to their schedule. I'm not a pest, and some friendships just naturally fade.

Becton High School will open two weeks late
Becton High School pushed back the opening day of the school year two weeks to Sept. 18 due to ongoing construction.
Emerging from a closed session where the members of the school board were given an update from project managers at Epic Management, the board voted unanimously for the delayed opening.
In a statement that Superintendent Dr. Gary Bowen placed on the high school's website, the board decided "in concert with Epic Management, the construction project manager, and the high school administration, please be advised that due to factors beyond our control, and to ensure a safe and orderly opening of school for all students and staff, the fall return to school has been delayed."
The statement went on to say that the return schedule for staff and other important details will be posted as soon as possible.
Dr. Bowen also stated that a 2013-14 revised calendar through June 30, 2014 will be announced at a later date.
The motion announcing the delay included the statement that return to work of teachers and staff including staff development days will be determined by the administration and in compliance with all individual and collective bargaining agreements.
The final day of school was set to be June 17, according to the high school's calendar on its website. It also noted that if additional emergency closing days are needed, spring recess will be reduced beginning with Monday, April 14, 2014.
The work being done at the school is the completion of an overhaul to make it soundproof from jet engine noise from airplanes using Teterboro and Newark airports. Students and teachers at Becton in the past have had to deal with rattling windows, interruptions and awkward pauses in the middle of lesson plans.
The $29 million project includes installation of a new HVAC system, heating, cooling and ventilation systems, the replacement of windows and doors plus the transformation of library to a state-of-the-art media center.
Manpower on the site recently had been increased to 50 workers a day, and the contractor had crews working Saturdays in hopes of getting the construction done on time for staff to be back in Sept. 3 and students the following day.

I thought this hotel was overpriced.
"Overall condition"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 17, 2013
For a Crowne Plaza - this hotel is in need of some sprucing up. Fixtures are dull and dated - bathroom doors are scratched and our entry doorknob broke. The room smelled moldy as if someone had sat on the couch in a wet bathing suit and it never dried out. It just looks tired. The staff was terrific. The location even better.

I stayed at the condos and loved the convenience to everything. Enjoyed the pool, restaurants and kindness of staff.

Show-within-show on 'Smash' to be performed
NEW YORK (AP) — One of the musicals at the heart of the cancelled TV show "Smash" will get another life.
The nightclub 54 Below said Tuesday it will present two world-premiere concert performances of "Hit List" on Dec. 9 featuring some of the stars from the series, including Jeremy Jordan, Andy Mientus and Krysta Rodriguez.
Later Tuesday, the 150-seat nightclub said both shows had sold out in an hour. Tickets were $55 plus a $25 food and beverage minimum.
On the second season of "Smash," the musical "Hit List" was a gritty, low-tech off-Broadway show that became a theater community darling and later competed with the glitzy Broadway-bound musical about the life of Marilyn Monroe called "Bombshell."
"Hit List" songs were written by Drew Gasparini, Joe Iconis, Andrew McMahon, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman and Lucie Silvas.
"Smash" was cancelled this summer after two seasons.

New addition to 'Harry Potter' universe holds excitement for fans
Published: Monday, September 30, 2013
Updated: Monday, September 30, 2013 22:09
On Sept. 12, the "Harry Potter" fans of the world meandered their way onto the Internet and found news of the impossible. Or at least that is how it seemed.
That was the day that J.K. Rowling announced her new film series, which will be based in the world of her popular "Harry Potter" books and movies. The first movie in the series, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," will be set 70 years before the first book of "Harry Potter."
The response was deafening. Fans across the world called and messaged each other, confirming the news. The Internet exploded with fan art, theories and speculation about what the other movies in the series would be. But, despite an overwhelmingly positive response, some of the reactions were hesitant.
A post on the Tumblr blog fandoms-confessions said, "I'm scared that 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' is going to be bad, considering we had 10 amazing years of film."
Other fans expressed similar thoughts, concerned that Rowling is losing sight of the integrity of the series in order to milk the franchise for more money. While few seem to outright object to the new material, there is a general sense of hesitancy, waiting and hoping that the movies are not gut-wrenchingly awful.
This concern is made all the more real by the introduction of "Pottermore," an online Harry Potter interactive experience which launched to the public April of last year, and which was perceived by many fans to be a let-down, if not an all-out failure.
However, as a "Harry Potter" fan myself, while I can understand the nervousness, I tend to agree with the gung-ho excited portion of the fan base. Rowling has always exhibited a love of the "Harry Potter" series and a firm desire to maintain its values. She has always proven loyal to her fans, and has stayed connected with them long after the release of the final movie.
While there are certainly plenty of movies and books that have worn out their potential, "Harry Potter" is not one of them. The world of the books is one that is thriving with complexity. All subjects are filled out, from science and medicine to literature and history, all waiting eagerly to be further explored. Rowling cut no corners in the creation of the "Harry Potter" universe, and the work shows, enabling her to have seemingly endless options as far as what is available for expanding into more books or movies.
Rowling's decision to make another series of movies is not an example of her scrambling to keep a fandom alive, but is rather an indication that she is listening to a still-thriving fandom, giving them what they are requesting because, thanks to years of hard work creating her series, she is capable of doing so.
Even if the movie is not quite up to the two-thumbs-up, best-movie-of-the-year experience we are hoping for, that does not make it any less important. When I walked out of the movie theater after seeing "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2," there was a sense of loss. Never again would I read or watch something from the "Harry Potter" universe and have it be brand new. Never again would I be amazed, enraptured, terrified, sitting on the edge of my seat and waiting for what was going to happen next. It was over. I could rewatch or reread, but it would never be quite the same. Or so I thought, as did the majority of other fans. Now, suddenly, that has become a possibility, and even if the quality does turn out a bit lower than we are hoping, it will still reveal for us a whole new section of the "Harry Potter" universe for our enjoyment.
So put your reservations aside and relax. A breath of fresh air has hit the world of "Harry Potter," and now all we need do is wait.

Athlete Names: Football faves
Two of the biggest success stories in boys' names in recent years have been Peyton and Eli, which are of course the names of the football-playing Manning brothers. Names of sports stars often prove inspirational, and in this Super Bowl weekend it makes sense to look at football names.
As with other celebrities, being attached to a fantastic player with personal appeal is not enough to catapult a name to stardom. The name itself has to have something going for it too.
LaDainian Tomlinson of the San Diego Chargers is one of the best players today, for instance, but parents are hardly rushing out to honor him by using his less-than-easy name for their sons. Plus, many football greats just have regular guy names, like Larry Fitzgerald and Ben Roethlisburger, two of the stars of this weekend's contest.
Still, football abounds with creative names you might find inspiring for your own little athlete-to-be. Here, some fascinating choices from the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers, the teams playing this weekend.
ANQUAN Boldin
BYRON Leftwich
CALAIS Campbell
CHIKE Okeafor
DESHEA Townsend
DEUCE Lutui
DONOVAN Woods (McNabb made this appealing name famous)
EARLY Doucet
EDGERRIN James
ENOKA Lucas
FERNANDO Bryant
HEATH Miller
HINES Ward
IKE Taylor
KARLOS Dansby
KEYARON Fox
LEVI Brown
MEWEDDE Moore
ORPHEUS Roye
SANTONIO Holmes
TRAI Essex
TROY Polanalu
And in case you're wondering, the football above is a real birth announcement. Football fan expectant parents can order it at Lullabye Baby.

ooooh, Orpheus! Awesome. There's a little Byron around the corner from me, I can see that easily working on just about any boy. And Fernando's got serous charm. Warm to. My kid brother's a huge Steelers fan and has a picture of himself with Mewedde Moore. He's actually taller than Mewedde Moore too. Cool dude, cool name!
Tirzah Says:
I know a female Brady, named after Tom Brady.
Pam Says:
I'm sitting here watching the Super Bowl, and I have to admit that having made this list makes it (marginally) more interesting. Troy! Santonio! Larry! I know them.

2012 NFL Mock Draft: Dream 7-Round Scenarios for the Kansas City Chiefs
By (Correspondent) on January 10, 2012
5,830 reads
After already compiling my original 2012 NFL mock draft for the Kansas City Chiefs last week, I decided to do a similar piece this week.
It has to do with the most likely dream picks for KC in this upcoming draft.
In some ways, it almost doesn't seem possible that the Chiefs would be able to select many of these players on draft day, but that's why it's a dream.
Here are the full seven-round dream scenarios for Kansas City in this year's version of the NFL draft.
First Round: Trading Up for RG3
Sarah Glenn/Getty Images
For years, the Kansas City Chiefs organization has been searching for an elite quarterback to help guide their offense.
Baylor's Robert Griffin III and KC's offense seem to be a match made in heaven.
With either the 11th or 12th overall pick in April's draft, the Chiefs will likely have to dangle two or three high-round picks to be able to pluck RG3 away from a handful of teams that could use his services as well.
If they can land him, Griffin could be the final piece of the championship puzzle for this storied franchise.
Second Round: ILB Vontaze Burfict, Arizona
Christian Petersen/Getty Images
Vontaze Burfict is a cant-miss inside linebacker prospect out of Arizona State.
His talent level is through the roof and he is a fierce hitter as well.
Sure, he has been known to go off the deep end and commit a few pointless penalties, but you can't deny his ability to make big plays from his ILB spot.
Burfict could come in and immediately start next to All-Pro linebacker Derrick Johnson, which would instantly give the Chiefs one of the best linebacking corps in the league.
Third Round: OT Zebrie Sanders, Florida State
Sanders would be a great value pick for the Chiefs in the third round.
He grades out as one of the best offensive tackles in this draft class, and has the versatility to line up at either LT or RT as well.
The former Florida State Seminole would take over for Barry Richardson at right tackle, and help give some stability to that position for the first time in a while.
Right now, Sanders projects as a second- to third-round pick, but if he is on the board when Kansas City's turn comes up in the third round, it would be a dream come true for both him and the Chiefs.
Fourth Round: DT Dontari Poe, Memphis
Poe should be one of the best defensive tackles available on the second day of the draft.
He is massive, at 6'5", 250 lbs, and could be a force in the middle of the Chiefs defensive line for many years.
With veteran nose tackle Kelly Gregg becoming a free agent this offseason and second-year man Jerrell Powe still an unknown commodity, Memphis' Poe could be just what the doctor ordered for the KC defense.
Adding Poe to the D-line along with stud ILB Vontaze Burfict would give the Chiefs one of the scariest units to face in the league next season and beyond.
Fifth Round: RB Vick Ballard, Mississippi State
Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images
Mississippi State's Vick Ballard would be the perfect complement to Pro Bowl RB Jamaal Charles.
He is more of a bruiser, between-the-tackles-type back at 5'11", 220 lbs, and would help give KC their best duo at running back since Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson just a few years ago.
Ballard could help spell Charles in the red zone, which is an area that Jamaal has struggled in scoring touchdowns in the past.
The Pascagoula, Mississippi native would be an excellent pickup in the fifth round for this team.
Sixth Round: WR Ryan Broyles, Oklahoma
Jamie Squire/Getty Images
Before the '11 college football season started, it would have been hard to believe that Oklahoma wideout Ryan Broyles would be taken this late in April's NFL draft.
With just four games left in the year, Broyles tore his ACL against Texas A&M, effectively ending his record-breaking career with the Sooners.
Due to the severity of the injury, there's a chance he could drop to the sixth round of the draft.
If he does, the Chiefs could add a dynamite receiver and big-play return man in Broyles.
Seventh Round: TE Kevin Koger, Michigan
Gregory Shamus/Getty Images
The Chiefs already have a good starting TE in Tony Moeaki, but why not add another one to the roster as well?
After all, the NFL is starting to turn into more of a passing league and having two solid tight ends couldn't hurt.
If KC was able to get Michigan's Kevin Koger in the seventh round, they could use him in double-TE sets with Moeaki and their offense would be that much better in '12 and beyond.
Koger had four touchdowns this past season for the Wolverines, and would be an asset for this Chiefs offense because of his great set of hands and excellent route-running ability.
Sarah Glenn/Getty Images
From this draft, the Chiefs would be filling many holes on their current roster.
By adding a stud QB, two talented defenders and a host of playmakers on offense, I believe that this is the draft that could take this organization to the next level.
They would likely be able to solve the problem at quarterback and defensive tackle, while adding a plethora of talent to the team.
With RG3 launching passes to Ryan Broyles downfield and Vontaze Burfict doing his best Ray Lewis impression on defense, it's hard to not love this mock draft.
As a Kansas City Chiefs fan, I can always dream of what could happen in April.

JUST about everything in the computer world is susceptible to an upgrade, and the remote control included with the new Windows Media Center computers is no exception.
Gyration's Media Center Remote, a combination remote control and mouse, uses gyroscopic motion-sensing technology to translate hand and wrist movements into commands that control an on-screen pointer. The result is a floating cursor control that allows the user to navigate Web sites and PC programs more efficiently.
The remote's easily configured controls also let the user switch between a TV, CD or DVD player or recorder, VCR, music players, video and digital slide shows. Gyration (www.gyration.com) says the unit operates at distances of up to 100 feet.
In an informal test, the unit's nondirectional radio-frequency signals penetrated floors and walls with no degradation. (The standard remote with XP Media Center requires a clear line of sight; most wireless mice have a range of six feet and require a flat surface.)
In comparison with most multifunction remotes, the Media Center Remote is simple. Buttons on the top serve the same purpose as those on a traditional mouse.

Police believe the same man is behind a string of unsolved cases in Hickory. Someone is targeting restaurants at closing time and holding employees at gunpoint during those robberies, according to police. Police said he is surprising workers as they head to their cars at night. The robbery at Wendy's on Friday morning was the fourth case this month. The door workers said they came out around 2 a.m. when the robber came out of some bushes with a gun in his hand.
Police said like the other cases at a Burger King and a Tripps restaurant, he forced the employees back inside at gunpoint and then ordered them to open a safe. In the most recent robbery, there were four employees, and they did what police have been encouraging restaurant workers to do -- leave as a group. But Roger O'Neil, who works at the restaurant, said that didn't help in this case, and it was clear this robber meant business by what he was saying. "He said that if we thought it was a fake gun that he would show us that it wasn't. That he wanted us to all follow what he was saying or else he would kill us. He was like, he didn't want to kill anybody tonight, but he will," O'Neil said. Police said they have only a vague description of a man of slight build, 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighing about 145 pounds. Anyone with information on the case is asked to give police a call.

- How to Read a Study Record
This study will help to find out if having a certain genetic makeup influences how a person with asthma responds to salmeterol, one of the two drugs in Advair(R).
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Asthma |
Drug: salmeterol |
Phase 4 |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Non-Randomized Endpoint Classification: Pharmacodynamics Study Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | Pharmacogenetics of b2-Agonists in Asthma. |
- PC20 to methacholine [ Time Frame: Baseline, post 2-weeks of Advair, 36 hours after last dose of Advair ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Bronchodilator response to albuterol at time of maximum bronchoconstriction to methacholine (PC20) [ Time Frame: Baseline, post 2-weeks of Advair, 36 hours after last dose of Advair ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Estimated Enrollment: | 80 |
Study Start Date: | September 2007 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | December 2013 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | December 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Drug: salmeterol
- Flovent (fluticasone propionate)
- Advair (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol xinofoate)
- Atrovent (ipratropium bromide)
Patients are being asked to take part in this research study because they have asthma. This clinical research study is being done to see if an asthmatic's gene make-up (DNA is made up of genes) affects the way they respond to a particular asthma medication called salmeterol. Certain genes make people tall or short. Certain genes give people brown or black hair. Similarly, certain genes may be associated with the way patients respond to asthma medications.
Salmeterol xinafoate (a long acting bronchodilator) and fluticasone propionate (an inhaled corticosteroid) are the medicines contained in Advair Diskus. During this study, patients with asthma will receive fluticasone inhaler (called Flovent) and Advair Diskus. The investigators want to find out if patients with asthma with certain genes respond in different ways to the salmeterol in Advair Diskus. The investigators also want to find out if patients with asthma with certain genes who are treated with salmeterol for two weeks have their airways open up less than usual when they use albuterol.

- Gender: Male or female. Women are eligible if they are not pregnant or lactating. Females subjects of childbearing potential will undergo a urine pregnancy test prior to each methacholine challenge test.
- Age: 12 years and older.
- Asthma Diagnosis: Physician diagnosed asthma according to American Thoracic Society criteria for at least 3 months.
- Asthma Therapy: There is no requirement for previous asthma therapy to be included in this study.
- Asthma Severity: forced expiratory volume in the first sectond (FEV1) must be >= 60% of predicted normal values for age, height, and gender.
- methacholine challenge test provocative concentration (20% fall in FEV1) of [<=12]mg/ml.
Exclusion Criteria:
- History of life-threatening asthma: Any episode of asthma requiring intubation associated with hypercapnia, respiratory arrest, or hypoxic seizures.
- Asthma instability: Hospitalization for asthma within 3 months of Visit 1.
- Concurrent respiratory disease: Any respiratory disease other than asthma.
- Sensitivities: Sensitivities to methacholine, Flovent® MDI, ipratropium bromide, albuterol, or Advair Diskus® that would put the safety of the subject at risk.

custom headboards for your clients is one sure way to set yourself
apart from competition. Like so many other thingsits
really very easy once you know how.
Everyone has slightly different methods for building headboards,
but generally the basic techniques are the same. Here is the method
I have used for many years.
The front and back of the headboard are cut out of plywood, usually
from a 3/8-inch thick panel. The legs of the headboard are made
of two-by-fours and run from the floor completely to the top of
the headboard to create part of its support frame. One piece of
plywood is nailed to the legs as shown in Illustration 1 with the
nail heads on the plywood side. A two-by-four or a two-by-two is
nailed horizontally across the bottom of the body of the headboard.
If the headboard is straight across the top, another two-by-four
or two-by-two is placed across the top.
Supporting pieces of two-by-twos are nailed vertically to the body
of the headboard from the plywood side. The number of supports used
depends upon the size of the headboard and how substantially it
is to be built. Usually two or three are used, as shown in Illustration
Next, the second piece of plywood is nailed to the other side of
the two-by-four headboard frame, creating a sandwich.
Its that simple! The headboard now is ready to be padded and
A variety of materials can be used to pad headboards. Cotton upholstery
padding can be used and some workroom suppliers offer padding specifically
intended for cornices and headboards. I would wrap my headboard
frames with the same 1/4-inch thick foam I used on cornice boards
and then add a layer or two of quilt batting. The foam gives denseness
to the headboard while the batting provides plush softness.
Whatever padding is used, it is simply wrapped from the front around
the sides to the back and stapled into place. Or it can be trimmed
to the exact size and shape of the face of the headboard and glued
into place.
If the headboard is to be shaped, rather than being straight across
the top, then no two-by-four or two-by two is placed across the
top of the frame. Otherwise, the rest of the instructions are the
After the sandwich of wood has been created, the shape can be cut
through the full thickness, as shown in Illustration 3. This trims
the plywood, the support legs and the inner supports to the exact
desired shape all at the same time. If you do not have a saw that
will cut this thickness, the two pieces of plywood should be cut
to the desired shape before they are nailed to the headboard frame.
Whatever shape you are creating, it must be duplicated exactly in
both pieces of plywood. One easy way to do this is to clamp the
two pieces of plywood together and cut them at the same time. When
these pieces are then nailed to the two-by-four frame, the legs
will extend beyond the top at the corners of the headboard and will
need to be trimmed off.
Because no two-by-four or two-by-two frame runs along the top of
a shaped headboard, the finished sandwich frame will have a hollow
spot along the top edge between the two leg supports. This gap is
very easily covered by cutting a strip of 1/8-inch thick masonite
or other sturdy, but flexible material.
The width of this strip should be cut to match the thickness of
your headboard, usually about 2 3/4 inches at this point. The masonite
strip can be nailed along the top edge of the headboard using small
nails. The masonite will follow the shape of the headboard because
it will flex quite a bit without breaking. If your final shape has
a sharp angle to it and the masonite strip will not bend sharply
enough without breaking, thats OK. Go ahead and break it to
fit the angle. This edge will be covered with the padding and the
break will never show.
Thats all there is to it. Youre now ready to pad and

In 2nd week, 'Frozen' tops box office with $31.6M
NEW YORK (AP) In its second weekend at the box office, the Disney animated tale "Frozen" finally cooled off "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire," while the week's lone new wide-release "Out of the Furnace" wasn't a match for either blockbuster.
According to studio estimates Sunday, "Frozen" led the multiplexes with a haul of $31.6 million over the weekend, taking over the top spot from "Catching Fire." Lionsgate's "Hunger Games" sequel had topped the box office for the last two weeks, but slid to second with $27 million in its third week of release. »Read Full Article

Grow Texas–Austin
Austin: ranks high in national indicators
- Christopher Calnan, Austin Business Journal
She is expecting a similar rise this year if the economic conditions don't take a drastic dive.
"At this point in time, I don't expect it to do a U-turn or anything," Kerr said.
The construction industry was the only major sector contributing negatively to Austin's GDP growth during 2010, Kerr reported.
In August, prices of single-family homes sold in the Austin area increased 33 percent compared to a year ago. The total number of single-family homes sold totaled 1,978, and the median sales price was unchanged from last year at $200,000, according to the Austin Board of Realtors.
Nationally, the median existing single-family home price was $168,400 in August, which was 5.4 percent below a year ago.
In July, median existing home sales slumped to $193,900 in the Austin area versus $213,600 during the same month last year.
In the office leasing business, the Texas markets of Austin, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio accounted for 17.3 percent of occupancy gains year to date, or 4.1 million square feet, according to Jones Lang LaSalle Inc.'s third-quarter report.
Meanwhile, the commercial real estate market continued to tighten in the second quarter of this year as vacancies decreased and rates moved up.
Oxford Commercial completed a report that indicated a stronger market across most classes and locations. The overall vacancy rate decreased to 19.08 percent, down from 21.45 percent during the same three months in 2010. It is at its lowest since the third quarter of 2008.
The southwest market experienced the greatest year-over-year tightening, with vacancies falling to an average 13.85 percent in the last quarter from 20.84 percent last year. The vacancy rate in the Central Business District actually increased to 17.39 percent from 16.13 percent in the second quarter last year.

I just ordered this book from play.com looking forward to reading it and finishing the trilogy just hope it lives up to expectations
I'm about 2/3 of the way through. Feist's strength is his ability to draw his characters and settings and bring them to life.
Raymond has a good writing style that makes his books easy to read even when they are long. In this book we get answers to most of the questions raised through the series. The plot lines borders on standard fantasy fare but this is well worth reading.
Does anyone think raymond feist went too far over the line with fantasy in his last couple of books?
Yeah, his last few books are not great. After Arutha died, the books are not as good. It almost seems like the Feist is getting bored with his work. And trying to make Pug the main character was a mistake. He's kind of a boring character. That saying, still one of the best series out there. It's hard to top characters like Jimmy and Arutha!!!

text: PERSONAL AND TAILORED SPELLCASTING AT A.S.H Spell casting has had a very long history and there have been times during history when people were punished severely for attempting to cast spells, but this did not stop the art of spell casting and while some may use this power and knowledge for dark magic for the most part it is used for good. There are many spells that include love and other parts of life that with a little help could be made better and there is nothing evil about doing this type of spell casting. Today that has changed and people that one would never expect is casting spells, there are many people today that seek people out that can cast spells for them as this is a true art that takes much practice as well as education in the art of spell casting. This is also no longer a hidden art, there are many websites on the Internet that explain how spells are done and what a person that has this power is able to do to help in all types of situations. There are many places where spells and learning how to cast spells can be found today, there are many books in book stores and libraries as well, there are many sites on the internet that have spells on them as well as explaining this art and with education comes the knowledge that this is not an evil practice but a rather special one and that it takes much knowledge, work and preparation in order to cast a spell, which makes this a true art form. In order to practice magic spells there are items that will be needed to do the spells and there are also directions almost as if using a cook book recipe, not only are there certain items needed but certain chants that are used in each spell and to have the spell work it will take practice until it is done properly. Some of these spells are done one time and some must be repeated for several days in order to cast the spell properly. All throughout history there have been people who have cast spells and during some points in history they were put to death because of the spells they cast put fear into the citizens of their villages and towns. Even in movies these people have been made out to be evil for the most part, which is completely untrue and should you see a person who has the power to cast spells in the store you would never know this person was capable of this art. In other words people who cast spells look just the same as everyone else there is no mystery or evil look about them because this is an art form that uses, faith, and materials that are of plants and stones as well as other things from the earth. Today there are many people who have honed their skills and are able to cast spells with accuracy and they offer to cast spells for others. To find a person who can cast spells they are often found by word of mouth and for many years it has been difficult to even find someone that has the real ability to cast spells. Welcome then to AL Angel Sourced Resident Spellcaster, please read more about AL on our Meet the Team page under About Us. |
