I Grew Up in South Africa During Apartheid
I was born in South Africa, under apartheid -- a white child with every privilege. It was the year 1969, five years after Nelson Mandela was sentenced to life in prison. In my first year at Queen's University, in 1990, Nelson Mandela was finally released from prison. My classmates were euphoric about what this would mean for South Africa. My optimism was more cautious.

You've shown some good control of value... especially in the renders of the metallic forms (helmets, etc). You need to work a bit more on measurement and proportion.
The greatest help in the world for you would be working from a simple white plaster cast (the antique...) properly lit.
Try to find a white plaster cast to draw from... think about the "notional space" that your drawing will take up (if you had to fit it in a rectangle, that's the notional space)
Measure the width of that into the height. It may be a fraction. Get a rough rectangle of that size on your paper. Now you're ready to find the proportions of the nose and eye (if you're doing the cast of a head) or the head (if you're doing a statue).
Everything is measured. Use a sighting stick, not a pencil.
And use a strip of paper to do your measurements!! This is critical, when you're starting out.
Find the height of the head from the chin to the top... vertically. Then use your strip of paper for that... and use the head measurement to locate all major locations on the figure.
After a while, you'll find that you're going to know the measurement before you get your strip of paper out. And that's when your eye will start to see things in proportion. Exciting, huh? It works, too. And a cast doesn't have to take breaks like a model.

What kind of jobs did you make money on last year, and in which ones did you lose money? Price pressure is enormous in the highly competitive graphic design sector. That makes it even more important for graphic design businesses to know exactly where their value added comes from. Connex offers a complete solution from pre-press through digital printing to print finishing, thereby providing the necessary automation as well as important figures that are needed for company management.
With the increasing importance of digital printing, intelligent process and data management have become unavoidable. That's because it's only possible to produce products directly and cost-effectively in one operation if the entire process is totally automated and integrated. It's exactly here where Muller Martini serves as your reliable partner to ensure the security of your investments: whether offset or digital, every business determines the corresponding degree of automation and networking that is required. "Decisive factors in a production system include guaranteed high quality of the end product as well as flexibility, scalability and economy," says Bruno Müller, CEO of Muller Martini. "All our solutions necessary to optimally automate the workflow among various machines are bundled into the Connex process and data management system. We offer industrial solutions that optimally equip our customers for both offset and digital printing."
Reducing Manual Process StepsSmaller print runs mean frequent job changes. Two things are crucial when it comes to continuing to keep production costs down: reducing redundant data entry by consistently using existing data for a job through the entire work process, as well as reducing manual process steps through automation. With Connex, it is possible to optimally automate all Muller Martini systems, from a stand-alone machine to complex production lines. Thanks to this standardization, all machines can communicate with each other and, using Connex, can also be connected to a management information system (MIS). A prerequisite for this consists of JDF (job definition format) and JMF (job messaging format) data that is compatible with the CIP4 standard. Muller Martini offers a wide range of machines that are ready for integration, in other words they are "digital ready" and have already proven this ability in rugged real-world applications. Connex can also integrate machines that do not support this standard.
Lower Production Costs, Fewer ErrorsAs the key technologies, JDF and JMF ensure efficient production in graphic design companies. If a job has already been set up in MIS by creating a JDF and transferring it to Connex, key data from calculations, job planning, pre-press, printing and finishing can move along with the job through every process step efficiently and without redundant data entry. Integrating Connex into an MIS facilitates the media conversion and significantly reduces the manual planning steps.
At the same time, the necessary production settings for each job are created directly at the machines from the JDF data. During production, Connex provides JMF data with information in real time about machine status, materials consumption and production quantities. With it, jobs can be scheduled more simply, provide an excellent overview and, if necessary, be rescheduled. Faster job changeovers and a high level of process automation with Connex lead to considerably lower production costs, and input errors are reduced to ensure lean production. The printing press is controlled by Connex and makes up part of the Connex production planning process.
Also Fully Functional as Stand-alone VersionConnex has a modular design which enables it to be expanded to meet customers' needs, but it can also be installed as a fully functional stand-alone solution (without MIS). This is particularly significant for purely post-press operations or companies that are looking for a gradual entry into digital workflows. The highly automated system keeps personnel costs at a minimum, thereby providing a maximum return on investment.
At the drupa, Muller Martini will present the revamped Connex.Info for the first time. In addition to automated data collection from operational data, Connex.Info is also capable of providing long-term evaluations. This enables several advantages: secure data sources, no manipulation possible, automatic data collection, and no personnel costs. The collected data forms the basis for a subsequent evaluation of the various production runs. The resulting key performance indicators (KPI) are the basis for management by numbers that is becoming increasingly important.

Citation: Reno v. ACLU 117 S.Ct. 2329. 1997. Cornell Law School. 4 April 2009. <ttp://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/96-511.ZO.html>.
This source is a Supreme Court decision that curtailed the federal government's ability to prohibit that could be harmful for children. The laws in question were provisions of section 223 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996 that prohibit knowingly transmitting "indecent" and "patently offensive" material on the Web to minors. The Supreme Court ruled that these provisions were unconstitutional, and upheld the ruling of a lower court, because they violated the first and fifth amendments of the Constitution. The court believed the terms "indecent" and "patently offensive" were too broad, and could restrict content that is actually not harmful. Additionally, the provisions were struck down because the court felt there was no good way to specifically target and identify Internet users under the age of 18, making this law difficult to violate or enforce. The portions of the law that prohibited knowingly transmitting obscene materials and child pornography to minors were upheld, because obscene content warrants less free-speech protection than indecent content. In the decision, written by Justice Stevens and agreed to by a large majority of the justices, there was also an overview of the history of the Internet and an explanation as to why cases upholding government laws monitoring commercial interests to protect children did not apply to this case.
Reno v. ACLU relates to my paper because it is a court case imporatnt to the ongoing battle to determine how best to protect children from harmful content online. If free speech bars the government from protecting children from certain types of potentially harmful content, then government regulation is not going to be the only solution needed to help shield children. However, since the government can pass laws regulating obscenity and child pornography, this case does demonstrate that there is a place where government regulation could potentially be helpful and useful. Stevens' decision would support my thesis, because the difficulty he acknowledges in detecting the age of Internet users makes it difficult for any organization to properly filter content. In order for children to be protected from some content, there will need to be intrinsic motivation for indecent websites to self-regulate and to try not to reach children.

Five-star Darlington back on top
5:42pm Saturday 8th September 2012 in Sport By Craig Stoddart, Deputy Sports Editor
Darlington 5 Consett 0
Darlington returned to the top of the table in comprehensive fashion thanks to a 5-0 win against Consett that included what's thought to be the club's quickest ever goal.
Amar Purewal netted after only 15 seconds at Heritage Park at the beginning of a comfortable win that saw Quakers respond in perfect fashion to the midweek 4-1 loss at Guisborough.
Purewal netted after collecting a long pass by right Stephen Harrison.
The second goal on 37 minutes was provided by Chris Emms as Quakers quickly took a grip. He fed the ball forward to David Dowson who poked the ball beyond Consett's Peter Jameson, despite colliding with keeper just outside the penalty area.
Although he hit the deck, the ball rolled into the net and referee Mr D Markham gave the goal and within two minutes it became 3-0 and again Dowson netted.
This time it owed more to trickery with Adam Nicholls the provider. He attempted to work an opening in the centre of Consett's penalty area and evnetually laid the ball off to blast home.
The fourth goal came just after the break was the best of the day.
Scored by Emms after receiving a Nicholls pass, he played a first-time chip from 20 yards that dropped sweetly over Jameson.
That 50th minute goal killed the game as a contest as Consett knew there was no way back while Quakers took their foot off the pedal.
It was not until the 81st minute that Shaun Reay added the fifth. He had been dropped, but after coming off the bench the striker netted his sixth goal in as many matches and again Nicholls was the provider.
He played a pass up to Reay who, with one sublime touch, brought the ball under control and rounded Jameson.
The goal completed the scoring in a comprehensive Darlington display in which keeper Jack Norton was rarely tested. After the break he had to make a low stop to deny Michael Mackay and also pawed away a Stephen Callen effort on an otherwise comfortable day.
Darlington gave a debut to Joe Tait who started at centre-back after signing yesterday and he put in a solid show.
Quakers are next in action at Heritage Park on Wednesday when they play Newton Aycliffe while Consett are at home to Shildon on Tuesday.

Now the club is firmly in the hands of those fans, who actually bought their shares and who now have a 1 vote per share voting rights, we can start looking at righting the wrongs done in Darlington.
There are lots of potential locations for a new ground of a sensible size in a far better location than George's folly within the town, so let's hope the council can pause from selling off playing fields and can start doing their part in the CIC.

The cost of a college diploma
Posted at: 01/31/2013 6:43 AM
A study by the Center for College Affordability and Productivity finds that nearly half of recent college graduates are working in jobs that don't require a college diploma.
According to the findings, about 48-percent of college students who graduated in 2010 are in positions that don't need a bachelor's degree, while 38-percent are working in gigs that don't require even a high school diploma.
It's a sobering statistic for young people heading into the workplace, especially those saddled with thousands of dollars in student loans.
The prospects are brighter for those who went to well-regarded private colleges, who on average make more than graduates of state universities.

The Jewish establishment is in rage, because they won t have it like they had it under a jew-friendly neocommunist 8 year regime - wich by the way destroyed Hungary! And the so called european values are non other than the untangible financial rights within the uncontrollable free market. May the resistance go ahead!

Order Standard by 2 p.m. ET 12/19 for 12/24 delivery. Standard $25+ orders ship free
I have very dry skin during winter. This cleanser did not dry out my face like other cleansers. Definitely recommend for people with dry skin.
This is a great facial cleanser for when your skin is a little too dried out to use something stronger. I use it with my ultrasonic brush so it cleansed my skin really well but also left it feeling soft. Perfect for the winter time!
This didn't cause me any problems at all with sensitivity or fragrance. My skin felt soft after using. I agree with others that it's not enough for a full face of makeup. I only used it for a BB cream & some blush. I don't think it would get the whole work days worth of makeup off.
I did like the wash, it was gentle on my face. Smell of product is nice and not overbearing. Soap did not dry out my face.
This is a really cool idea and great to use when I don't have time to wash my face with water. It smells really great, but I am not sure that it really cleans that well. My face does feel refreshed after using it!
I have sensitive skin and a lot of face washes do a number on me. This product is great and I'm thrilled it was part of my box so I can get the full-size bottle.
I really loved it made my skin soft didnt have a strong smell...its nice
I have used this product before- it is good for sensitive skin for someone who does not use a lot of makeup. Unfortunately, I use a lot of waterproof eye makeup and foundation, therefore this product was not 100% effective (I used a toner after it, and a separate eye makeup remover). It is a good travel product, but not exactly what I was looking for. If you have sensitive skin (prone to redness and flare ups) it is ok to use.
I honestly didn't think that I would like this product, although I used it last night and my skin felt clean and very soft. I'll definitely bring it along when I travel, go camping, etc.
It's a great cleanser. It doesn't leave my skin extra dry or tight.

Sravya -- Guess Who Came............

A real Native American came to our school to teach us about his culture. We watched a movie showing how they were treated and we played fun games. I think the most important thing that we learned is that Native Americans had a very hard life when they were young and we should be thankful to have things much easier now. If the Native Americans did have things that we have now, each family would have to make them, but we can go up to the store and buy it. For example: they had to make their own knives, but we can buy one at the store. To educate people the most I would tell the world that we waste food that can feed the world for a day! The Native Americans never even wasted a bit of their animal meat or any other food. They ate every single part of the animal. They made tools and necklaces out of animal bones. The Native Americans used the fur for clothing, blankets etc. I would recommend that this experience be brought back next year because you really get to learn a lot about Native Americans and their culture and mostly because it was really fun. Challenge Answer: I would like to mostly learn about the Greek culture from a guest speaker.

I think the most important thing that we learned was that Native Americans prefered to be called Indians believe it or not. I would want to tell the world most that of how they prefer their names and also about how they got taken away from there families at the age of 4. There is also one more I would like to tell them is that they wear all animal fur and feathers and they only eat fish, meat, and the three sisters which is corn beans and sqaush. I would recommend for them to come next year because the museum was amazing and wayons stories. I think next years class will really enjoy . If I were to choose another person to speak with us from another culture would be an Irish person because i'm Irish and I love learning about Ireland even if I already know it.

Hi! The most important thing that I learned is that some parts of books don't have the right infromation. I want everybody to go to a school that makes them happy.I would recommend the Native American man should come back next year, because you can learn a lot and have fun at the same time. You can make claypots, smash corn, touch furs, see Native American clothes, and hear a story from the Native American man!

We learned about how many of the Indians went to boarding schools. They also had drums that were filled with water and played music. The world should know that terms native American or Indian both desribe the same people. I would recommend this experience so other students can learn about their culture. One example of this culture is that the Indians like making clay pots. Maybe we can have a visit from an African tribe member. I would want to know if their is still cannibalism among many tribes.

My class, on Monday was visited by a real Native American! I didn't get to see him because I was absent, but if I did I know what I would have asked him. file:///C:UserssrlabAppDataLocalTempmsohtml11clip_image001.jpg" o:href="http://www.google.com/images?q=tbn:wgKZKLRudj-YeM::laureltarulli.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/native_american_girl.jpg">
I would have asked, first, "Where did you grow up?", "Were you in a clan?", "Did you have to hunt for living?" I would be really excited to meet a Native American. I'm kind of depressed because I really was looking forward to meeting him, but still I'm glad the rest of my class got to see him.
When I told my mom and brother about the Native American man my brother came up with the idea that maybe I can have a Native American come to my birthday. He can show us how to make tools and 'Dream Catchers'. The birthday would be themed like Native American days. It is a good idea, but I need to think about it first.
If we studied a type of culture I would pick cultures from the countries India and China. These two cultures, I think, are very interesting. The modern times in both cultures are very interesting and they are popular. The past is something amazing to learn. These would be good cultures to talk about.

This year we learned about the Native Americans. The most important thing we learned was about their culture and how they took care of their children. The way they took care of their children is by carrying them on their backs when they were working. I would tell the world that these people were very hardworking. Next I would like to learn about the Native Australians, Alborigians. I think that would be fun!!!

I think we learned a lot from the Jacolope story, how it lost it horns nad how it became a rabbit. I would tell them about how Native Americans were treated in the past and how they survived and fought. Yes because you would get a lot of hands on experience and kowledge and fun! I think we should learn about Korea not just because it is my country, but because a lot of people forget that country when they think of east Asia

Hey, I was soo excited when I heard that the Native American Dude was coming. My class has been waiting since the cavemen appeared . I think the most important thing I learned from him was that when you were in school and you were talking for even less than 30 seconds you eather get hit with a ruler or... RRRRRRUUUUUUNNNNNNN the guy was talking one day and he did not want to get hit so he ran 3 MILES! and the teacher was running beside him. Did you know that when you did somthing bad/wrong instead of your parents hitting you they would tell you a folktale of what you did rong. Yes I would recomend this very important experience be brought next year because they told us that in most of the books that you read they are wrong or they stretched the truth. So they tell you the real thing because they have a video of them with people.

This is your tour guide speaking. We will take a journey to the history of America. The whole forth grade in my school got to meet a Native American. My class learned many things, but I think the most important thing we learned is that we should follow their example and live in peace, share everything, work together, and don't compete with each other. I think everyone should do the same thing and praise nature for giving our home, the Earth. Well this tour is over. Bye!

We chose this location as we was driving through to go to Big Sur, in the south. The bottle of water upon arrival is truly an excellent detail that they offer. The room is very average. It was a convenient location to stay and get some sleep. We attempted to go to a convenience store to get more drinks, but... More

Formerly "French Kitchen in America," this kitchen is located on the outskirts of an old French Canadian neighborhood in the Upper Great Lakes. The menu is eclectic and the topics are varied.

My France Notebook: Apricot-Walnut French Toast and a Visit to Albas
Growing up in Frenchtown (which felt like home to us in a way our neighborhood on the other side of town did not), we felt closest to our French roots on Sundays. Perhaps it was the crow of the neighbor's rooster at sunrise, or the chatter of old folks in French after mass, or the long family meal at midday, or the feeling of lassitude that came over us in the afternoon.
In France, I find that feeling again, in the quiet of a rural afternoon. Sundays are nearly always the time for a late breakfast, a brief nap and a drive in the country.
One sunny Sunday last September, we set out to follow the meandering River Lot as it made its lazy way west.
First we conquered Douelle with its narrow streets. We have experienced Douelle often enough to know that Sundays are quiet there and we don't have to hold our breaths or cross our fingers or pray that we do not meet any traffic from the opposite direction.
We breezed through and set out for a more open road that took us past prosperous vineyards. Here the land looked more like Wisconsin, save for the houses and barns. We wound our way through Luzech, charmed by the feel of it. The wine country is prosperous, and Luzech seemed so. We stopped along the river, and took pictures of two well-dressed children down at the river's edge.
It was Albas that caught my imagination, with its narrow winding streets and its welcoming view. The sight of a village clinging to a cliff above a river is not something I see in my everyday life. My husband stopped the car at a small lookout over the river so I could take the photo above.
Apricot-Walnut French Toast
6 slices apricot or cinnamon-raisin bread
3 eggs
1/4 cup cream or milk
tablespoon brown sugar
teaspoon vanilla extract
dash cinnamon
pinch salt
For the sauce:
1/2 cup apricot preserves
tablespoon melted butter
1/3 cup walnuts
Beat eggs, cream or milk, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in large bowl. Soak bread until it is thoroughly moist, but not falling apart. Place in buttered skillet and brown.
While bread is turning golden brown, heat preserves in a small saucepan over a medium burner. Add butter and walnuts.
Remove bread from skillet and smother in apricot-walnut sauce. This is delicious when served with vanilla yogurt and apricot nectar.
Like any other French toast recipe, this one is a good way to use up bread that is growing stale. Since I cannot resist buying bread while in France, French toast or pain perdu is a pretty typical breakfast for us when we travel.

Oh for heavens sake! That is taking ordinary french toast to a whole new level! A lazy Sunday brunch, perhaps?

Yes, indeed, and everything about this particular Sunday was lazy, from breakfast to the wandering River Lot.
Oh, and we had French Fries for supper. - 18 January, 2009 19:15

I just discovered your blog via Country French Antiques... I can't wait to read more! - 20 January, 2009 14:51

Thanks, Alice. This is really a pretty eclectic site. It was supposed to be about food and all aspects of it. I found it tiring to do a recipe a day, which so many bloggers seem able to do! So I have to hope readers will find I have something to say...

Oh my, oh my... I can't decide which photo is better- the mouthwatering French toast or the luscious green foliage of the French countryside.

Food porn or French countryside porn? Yes, tough choice.
Erika, I think you would like the toast! - 22 January, 2009 20:06

Digging Mars
- ‹ Previous program
- 317 of 2174
- Next program ›
Martian soil might not make your garden tomatoes grow plump and juicy, but it probably wouldn't hurt them, either. That's the early conclusion from the Phoenix Mars lander, which has conducted the most thorough analysis of Martian soil ever.
Mission leader Peter Smith explains what its instruments have found:
SMITH: We're seeing that there's nutrients in the soil in the way of sodium, potassium, and magnesium. We see chlorides, which leads you to think that there's sodium chloride or magnesium chloride, different kinds of salts. And we're seeing an interesting and unexpected material, perchlorate. On the earth, we used to get our fertilizer from Chile. They have vast nitrate deposits, so they make ammonium nitrate, which we use for fertilizer. Because perchlorate is often formed in the same place as the nitrate, you often get perchlorate mixed in with your fertilizer, so we put it under our plants as a fertilizer and it really doesn't hurt anything. So perchlorate doesn't necessarily mean that you can't have life.
During its first few months of operation, though, Phoenix found no evidence of the chemistry of life. But its analysis is still going on, says mission scientist William Boynton.
BOYNTON: So the important thing is to just see if the conditions are such that the organic molcules can survive. If organic molecules can't survive, then that says ... that at least in this particular environment, it may not be so good for life. But until we get those data, we won't really know for sure.
More about Phoenix tomorrow.

Abstract: (399G)
Session Topic: Organizing the 'Big' Communique (399H)
This is our 7th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by NIST, Ontolog, NCOR, NCBO, IAOA & NCO_NITRD with the support of our co-sponsors. The theme adopted for this Ontology Summit is: "Ontology for Big Systems." The event today is our last virtual session prior to the OntologySummit2012 (F2F) Workshop and symposium at NIST next week. (399I)
The principal goal of the summit is to bring together and foster collaboration between the ontology community, systems community, and stakeholders of some of "big systems." Together, the summit participants will exchange ideas on how ontological analysis and ontology engineering might make a difference, when applied in these "big systems." We will aim towards producing a series of recommendations describing how ontologies can create an impact; as well as providing illustrations where these techniques have been, or could be, applied in domains such as bioinformatics, electronic health records, intelligence, the smart electrical grid, manufacturing and supply chains, earth and environmental, e-science, cyberphysical systems and e-government. (399J)
As is traditional with the Ontology Summit series, the collective results of this extended discourse will be captured in the form of a communiqu�, with expanded supporting material provided on the web. (399K)
The goal of this session is two fold. We want to spend some time on preparing participants for and answering questions relating to the Apr. 12&13 workshop and symposium. The rest (and the bulk) of the session will be devoted to reviewing the OntologySummit2012_Communique/Draft that the co-Lead Editors have crafted (and published 4-Apr-2012), based on the inputs of all track champions and participants of last week's session. Any "request for change" to this draft received today and prior to the closing of the comment period (which is set at end-of-day tomorrow, 6-Apr-2012) will then be considered for inclusion by the Lead Editors, who will then come up with a final draft of the Communiqu� that they will publish by Apr. 9, 2012, getting all of us ready for the OntologySummit2012_Symposium. (399L)

CloseLegendary Machu Picchu, hidden city in the clouds, is just one highlight on a trip steeped in Peruvian magic. Led by guides with a deep passion for their land and its people, your adventure begins in the high-altitude city of Cusco, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Wind your way through the sacred Urubamba Valley to age-old burial sites built into steep cliffs. Visit mountain villages for traditional meals and dancing with local families. Hearty lunches and savory dinners fuel you for browsing Andean markets and exploring the 900-year-old Maras salt mines. With every footstep, you travel deeper into a land of snow-mantled peaks, lush forests, and dramatic valley vistas. Step back in time among ancient Incan ruins that are yours to wander. If you choose, accept the challenge of the spectacular Inca Trail. You'll experience mystical Machu Picchu fully by visiting at off-peak hours…on a journey that consistently takes the path less traveled.

Harold Smith took over Edwin's father's pigment business in 1885.

My almost-2-year-old just discovered coloring and she is a huge fan. We had some crayons for her, big chubby ones that came attached to her first coloring book, and when she discovered she could color the walls, you can imagine what happened. And the stuff would not come off, not with Magic Eraser or anything. So when we saw these, with the "washable with soap and water!" disclaimer, we decided to try them. My daughter loves them - and when she colors something other than paper, the color comes up easily with a diaper wipe if that's all I have available! A little more expensive than regular crayons, but genius and I won't buy anything else.

The color payoff is great compared to other toddler crayons,however they break way too easily. We just bought the crayons and they pretty much all broke into pieces after only coloring with them one time. My son loves crayons and coloring but i wish there was a great toddler crayon out there that's non-toxic and washable. The extra money you pay for them you would expect the quality to be higher. I am going to try the ALEX triangle crayons next and see how that goes.

I bought this product for my neice in Germany. She is 14 months old. I like that it was designed for her age group. It also comes with a nice variety of colors and it is non- toxic. I can definitely see myself buying these again.

The triangle grip makes it easy for toddlers to grasp as they are learning to hold writing instruments correctly. It seems like the triangle crayons are more prone to breakage - the points break off (sometimes even in the box), and also are more fragile than the traditional round crayons.

My daughter, almost a year and a half is a lefty. She loves to pick up penciñ and things to write, so I decided to buy these crayons. She grabs them pretty well for her age. I really love them.

My kid had problems writing and coloring with round pencils. This crayons are ideal, comfrotable and easy for him to handle.
Best crayons EVER
By Grams
from Huntsville, AL
These crayaons are flat on three sides so they don't roll away. It is such a simple idea but now it is a product. I have purchased 10 boxes so we can use them for a while. I don't care how old you are, rolling crayons, pens and pencils are annoying. THIS is the answer!! Thanks Crayola
1yr old & coloring
By Roxy

perfect for her little hands, easier to hold & already coloring at 1yr old!! Triangle shape keeps them from rolling but they are a little harder to shave when the points grow dull.

HGTV.com HGTV Message Boards Decorating General Decorating ADDITIONAL ?'s regarding tv in the corner...PIC of possbile stand. |
Go | New | Find | Notify | Tools | Reply |
need input on this corner cabinet. The size is right, I like the it isn't super low like most tv stands these days. It is overpriced in my opinion, but I want to talk about the style. To me it looks a little craftsman style...sorta out of the box media cabinet. Dont know if doing something different with the knobs/pulls would help any. What do you think? Link to CL ad. and I will post a couple pic's http://sandiego.craigslist.org.../fuo/3492896029.htmlThis message has been edited. Last edited by: Always1StepBehind, | |||
Do think it's TOO craftsmanly looking? | ||||
ok. the straight on view doesn't look too bad to me. It may be worth going to take a look at. It is local. | ||||
I love the looks of that stand. Would it give you more space in your room with the TV in the corner? Wanda | ||||
Always, It looks like a nice solution for TV. Do you have the cable hook-up near the corner? Don't forget a coat of paint is "always" fun too. Black, white, terra-cotta, or turquoise would look great on that piece. Woven cane could be added to the doors for accent. You might even find some of those wood decal rosettes for the corners and change out the hardware for a different look too. Keep us posted and show us the "after" pics! ~Like sands through the hourglass ~So are the days of our lives | ||||
Yes, my cable hook up is in the corner. I had my tv armoire in the corner previously when I had my old style box tv but when I upgraded to a flat screen I went a little bigger and my flat screen wouldn't fit in the armoire. Now I have my tv on a wider cabinet flat against a wall in the corner. I've tried angling the current cabinet but it looks kinda funny to me. Here is an old picture of the current cabinet I had put on an angle. It looks to big to be angled don't you think? It is 51.5 inches wide and the craigslist corner cabinet is 42.1 inches wide. | ||||
This is how it is currently against the wall. The CL cabinet would be as tall as where the handle is on the drawer of the current black cabinet. | ||||
Thanks for the pics of LR. Hard to tell the fit of angled pieces. Would it stick out on the curtain side? Love Mr. Teddy Bear! ~Like sands through the hourglass ~So are the days of our lives | ||||
Looks like a good fit to me (based on photos). As is, the cabinet fits well with your finishes - tile, sofas, etc. Worth looking at if you can go see it. | ||||
I remember when you purchased the flat screen. Didn't you buy a 42" screen? If you did then the TV stand that is for sale would be wide enough. If your comfortable viewing the screen at an angle then you would gain two advantages with the stand that is for sale. One, the TV wouldn't be flat against a wall of southern facing widows. Two, you could hide the clutter behind the cabinet doors. As far as the color goes it is red oak and the orange hue goes with floor tile color. You also have an oak piece of furniture, (the armoire), on the opposite wall from the TV in its current position. Are you going to be comfortable with a black TV atop a light oak stand colorwise? It's not that it won't work, but more a matter of how you personally feel about it. | ||||
Be sure you like the looks of the TV in the corner..and will be able to see it comfortably from all seating that you have...Personally I do not like any furniture (TV or otherwise) across a corner. Our TV is in front of a double window (only place to put it for several people to watch.) and I really like it that way. I do have double windows on another wall so have plenty of light. I like the TV against the wall like you have it now....seems it can be seen from the chair AND the sofa. love life | ||||
I LOVE it> We have our tv in a corner, only possible place for it, but I want a nice stand. That one is perfect!! You happen to know the brand?? I'd pay retail for that stand.. Life is GOOD!! | ||||
My previous tv was angled in the corner so I know the viewing will be fine. I am trying to figure out how far out the stand would be from the back corner..it's hard to figure with the angles. But I'm figuring if the widest part is 42.1 iches, I'd pull out the measuring tape to 42.1 and back it in to corner to see where that middle corner would land right? Still tryin..you have a good memory. I wasn't sure if it was a 40 or 42 inch. The overall meausurment of the tv is 41.5 inches wide. Kathy-I can't read the tag in the pictures but I am going to try to go see it today. I will see where it's from or who it's made by. The more I'm looking at other corner cabinets online, this on is looking even better. | ||||
And you can't hang the TV on the wall because? I like your current configuration, and the TV mounted to the wall would allow you to angle it for perfect viewing without altering the type cabinet you need. Why change the furniture if you can just change the way the TV is attached? Also, when not viewing, it can be pushed back flat against the wall and look as neat as it does in the photo you posted. | ||||
I don't know that I would want the tv mounted on the wall. Where it sits now on the current black cabinet is pretty much the max viewing height for me. I sometimes look at the bottom of the cabinet to see if I could cut the bottom to bring it down a couple inches. In theory and if it was wall mounted...I like the idea of it looking nice and neat kept flat againt the wall when not in use, but reality is it would always be pulled out from the wall and angled for viewing especially when I get new LR furniture, so I figure it may as well just sit on an angle. Plus if it was wall mounted I know it would drive me nuts to see it most the time pulled out from the wall mount and angled for viewing and the cabinet flat against the wall. Does that make sense?This message has been edited. Last edited by: Always1StepBehind, | ||||
Yes it makes sense because you are the one using it and having to maneuver it. Just curious if you had considered that arrangement. Also, hanging does not mean hanging higher, it can be mounted at height it is now. Good luck with your choice and then relax and watch TV! | ||||
always, I haven't posted in some time but you and I seem to have such similar tastes and have had the same décor items over the years. With that said we bought that exact corner table...we paid full price at a shop, but I love it. It is craftsman in style but with a rustic feel to it. I think it would work well with your furniture style. | ||||
I like it alot. | ||||
ok. I went to look at the cabinet today. I am interested but tell me what you think in regards to how far it will come out on the window wall (referring to above pictures) The wall space to the window opening is 36-3/4 inches. The cabinet will overlap the window area about 1 inch. I currently don't have those cream colored panels up pictured in the above pictures so the panels are not a factor or worry. I don't think 1 inch in front of the window will matter right?This message has been edited. Last edited by: Always1StepBehind, | ||||
Next question, providing that one inch overlap isn't an issue...If I decide to get the cabinet, how much should I offer. Personally I think $200. is way too high..I don't think I would want to pay any more than $150. and even that I feel is still high for craigslist. | ||||
Personally, I wouldn't be happy with an overlap. Believe it will appear unbalanced. (Yes, you can correct for the imbalance but still -) Don't know why you removed the panels. Assuming you have the same furniture, I believe they provide softness and wouldn't want to remove them permanently. In addition, $150 feels far too high for that piece. Have you thought about building a simple corner unit (or having a handy pal assist) and mounting the flatscreen so it can be angled around the room, if you so desire? Anyway, JMHO and good luck - P.S. Oops, just saw your comment about wall mounting. BTW, if you build something custom, you can make it slightly lower and also mount the TV at the optimal viewing location. They're usually not pulled out significantly, at least in my experience. If/when you change out the furniture, it s/b easy to adjust the mounting to the (new) optimal spot.This message has been edited. Last edited by: AguaBella, | ||||
I think the tv looks really nice angled in the room. Anxious to see new piece. | ||||
Either way, it is going to be unbalanced because of wall space on each side. Now I just need to figure out how much to offer without offending the seller. | ||||
Custom definitely takes care of the window imbalance. It could be done as a straight corner unit or as both a corner and wall unit. Either way, any imbalance on the other side can easily be corrected with plants, accessories, art, etc. if necessary. Plus, if/when you sell this home, a custom unit may be a selling feature. How long as the CL unit been on the market?This message has been edited. Last edited by: AguaBella, | ||||
She listed the cabinet on the 20th. I really don't want to pay any more than $125. I feel it is overpriced so I feel like me offering $100-$125. is going to come across like I'm trying to low-ball them. Do I say I think it's overpriced or just say this all I'm in looking to pay for a used tv cab. | ||||
ok...I just texted saying I was getting back to her on the tv cab, that I was interested but looking to pay no more than $125. for a used tv stand. that I didnt want to come across like I was tyring to lowball but personally I thought it was a little overpriced. let me know if she was interested or wanted to wait for a better offer... BALLS IN THEIR COURT NOW!!! let's see what happens. | ||||
That's right - you set a minimum. I would also set a maximum. If/when the price exceeds your max, you won't care about someone else purchasing it. Don't know your plans for the new furniture but curious if you considered painting this unit? Good Luck! | ||||
I haven't been around in a while. But Always, your space is looking great. I really like the tv stand, and i think the style would work with what you have. Good luck of your offer! | ||||
Either my text didn't go through, or I offended them. They never replied. | ||||
Thanks boo. You may want to check back in a few weeks..I have a new addition to my living room coming hopefully by the end of January!! | ||||
Could the new addition be the new sectional you have been l-u-s-t-ing after?? | ||||
Tuesday...Not the one I've been l u sting over..I would have had won the Lotto or rob a bank...so I am getting "what I can afford" and getting the one at Macy's. It was on a really good sale again, free delivery and zero percent financing for a year. I had almost $400. in Macys gift cards to put it too!! I should be able to set up a delivery date after 1/12. | ||||
Sellers have that corner tv stand back on CL. Same price of $200.00 though. I still like it, but will have to wait now till I get my sectional and make sure of the layout before I decide to change tv stand and angle. | ||||
Had wondered previously if it was relisted. Good idea to get your sectional in place and go back. They'll come down. Checking for someone else recently and happened to notice that cheapy, new TV stands start at $20 at Ikea. Makes it tough for other sellers to compete - Congratulations on your sectional and good luck - | ||||

The rumours about Christy Clark's imminent political death have been -- and continue to be --greatly exaggerated.
Clark became leader of the B.C. Liberal Party and then premier last year with the support of just one of the 47 member Liberal caucus.
Many of the cabinet minister heavyweights, including Prince George area MLAs Pat Bell and Shirley Bond, lined up behind Kevin Falcon.
Despite her solid Liberal credentials and her senior role in Gordon Campbell's cabinet before she departed politics for parenthood and radio in 2004, Clark was able to play the outsider card in the leadership race against longtime Campbell stalwarts Falcon, George Abbott and Mike de Jong.
She campaigned hard among card carrying Liberals around the province, convincing them that she was better positioned than Campbell's boys to turn the page on the hated Harmonized Sales Tax and the rest of the Campbell-era miscues.
Despite the fact that nobody wanted her in the room except for backbencher Harry Bloy, Clark stepped in as the new leader of the Liberal caucus, keeping Falcon and Abbott in senior roles, while asking Bell, Bond, de Jong and others to take on more responsibility.
Clark's continuous efforts to hold this group together, particularly at the cabinet level, paid off and the mass defections didn't come until this week with the departure of Falcon, Abbott, John Les and Mary McNeil. They join a host of others who announced earlier this summer that they wouldn't be seeking reelection.
The timing has nothing to do with Clark and everything to do with party politics. With the Liberal convention coming in October, the party needs to do some recruiting and new faces need to be unveiled to win riding nominations.
Falcon and Abbott not running again will hurt Clark but not too much, particularly in Abbott's Shuswap riding, which leans firmly to the right. A reputable Liberal candidate there shouldn't have too much of a problem keeping that riding.
Far too much has been made about these departures and their significance. Somehow, Campbell kept his seat in the premier's office, despite the departures during his reign of high-fliers like Gary Collins, Carole Taylor, Geoff Plant... and Christy Clark.
Clark's caucus remains deep with talent and there are more Bells and Bonds standing by their leader than Falcons and Abbotts making their way to the exits.
Furthermore, the arrival of Jim Shepard in Prince George on Thursday and his unveiling of the Concerned Citizens For British Columbia offers a glimpse into Clark's election strategy.
Shepard, the retired CEO of Finning and Canfor, who served for a year in the premier's office for the princely fee of $1, will be rallying business and civic leaders across the province with a simple choice.
If you don't throw your money and your vote behind Clark, then you might as well support the NDP, because that's who will govern for the next four or five years.
Like similar political advocacy groups in the U.S., Shepard's Concerned Citizens will spend money and time in attack mode, nipping at NDP leader Adrian Nix's heels.
With the Concerned Citizens hard at work, Clark will be free to take a more statesman role in the election, focusing on the simple message of her leadership and her free-enterprise vision. Dix, meanwhile, will have the much more difficult job of playing both defence against the Concerned Citizens, while also simultaneously attacking Clark.
This exact same tactic worked well for Stephen Harper and it's no accident that Clark has courted some of Harper's team to work for her.
And don't believe a word of the opinion polls.
In the months leading up to the election, voters express their dissatisfaction with the government of the day to pollsters. It's a powerful way to put the ruling party on notice that more is expected.
Then, on election day, even if those same voters are still somewhat dissatisfied with the premier, they will still vote for the Liberals because the NDP alternative isn't so attractive when the price is an X on a ballot and a five-year lease on the reins of power.
Clark's hardly done.
In fact, she's just getting started.
Shepard's mission should make that loud and clear.
