Beam for Load Bearing Wall
Hi all, I am trying to determine what size beam and end supports for the beam I will need to expand a doorway from 3 to 14 feet on a load bearing wall. I am looking to open my kitchen to the dining room. The house is a 2 story with a full attick that is not built out (it is open except for the roof support structure) which has 3 beams including the beam at the apex of the roof than run the full lenth of the house. There are several cross braces, and there also is 2 x 4s supporting the two beams that are not the apex beam. The attick is a simple A shape the length of the house. All walls on the first two floors are 8 feet. I have attached some rough sketches of the attic supports and the first floor layout. The second floor appears to distribute its weight on the outside walls and the same load bearing wall on the first floor that I wish to alter. The attick does not appear to rely on the first floor load wall. The drawings do not show every rafter in the attick nor all of the cross braces but i hope you can tell from my color coated drawings the layout. I want to expand the 3 foot door to 14 feet where I have noted the question of whether it is a support wall i look to alter. I have better resolution drawings but the website would allow me to load. Thanks in advance

Beam for Load Bearing Wall
Hello and welcome jstein69, to the best DIY'r site on the web.
And that is exactly what this is a DIY'r site, the problem with your question, it is not. This forum is constantly being asked, what size beam for this and what size beam for that. The way I look at it, if you have to ask, then you are not qualified to evaluate the answer, if you are not qualified to evaluate the answer then the answer is really not of much value. Good luck with the project and keep a positive out look on some of the answers I am sure you will get. The best thing to do is bring a qualified engineer or designer in to size a beam for you and draw up the connections and temperary supports. Mark

Beam for Load Bearing Wall
This is a pretty common request on this forum, i.e. I want to replace (part of ) a load bearing wall with a beam, how big does it need to be?
You can do a search on this forum and find dozens of similar posts in the last two years. I am not going to repeat the majority of my comments, people on this forum are probably pretty tired of hearing them. Let me make it short and sweet. Sizing a beam, preparing the required drawings, and detailing the connections is not DIY work in my opinion. It requires a hands on visit by a trained professional, either an architect or engineer. The risk due to improper design is very high. There have been suggestions in the past that a lumber yard might size the beam for you as part of their cost for the beam. Maybe they will. In my town, and in most towns in the United States, in order to pull a permit for a job like this, you need a stamped plan from a registered professional engineer or architect. An opinion as to the proper size from an internet chat group is not gonna cut it in most of the U.S. But maybe you don't need a permit, or don't plan to pull one. Are you really going to trust someone who has never visited your site, whom you have never met, and about whom you know nothing, to size a beam which could kill you if it collapses? Anyone on this forum with the necessary knowledge and appropriate license to design a beam for you is legally barred from doing so without a contract with you, and MUST under the licensing requirements of every state I am familiar with (I a licensed in six states) make a personal site visit to design a structural element. So anyone who is skilled enough to size the beam, and licensed, is not going to risk their license by designing a beam for you over the internet. That leaves the remainder of the crowd to comment, specifically those not licensed, and perhaps not knowledgeable enough, to size your beam. Conclusion: Hire an architect or engineer to design your project. |

The thing is findlib's official current version just doesn't.

I don't know what Gerd's workload is like at the moment, but with luck there may be a new official version that correctly supports Windows soon! David

Kirsten Dunst is happy to be bridesmaid
KIRSTEN Dunst isn't feeling any pressure to get hitched after spending her summer going to weddings.
"I was a bridesmaid, a maid of honour, went to another wedding … This was definitely a heavy wedding year for me."
As her school friends walked one-by-one down the aisle, the 30-year-old claims to have felt no pressure to get her own marital act together.
"Not at all, no. All in the time that it should come," Dunst says.
"I'm not worried. When you do worry, when you fixate on those things, that's when it doesn't happen. Like when you hear about couples who adopt a child and then they get pregnant, you know? That kind of psychology.
"When you're not thinking about it, that's when it comes your way."
So Dunst is happy to remain a bridesmaid – for now, at least – even in her new movie, "Bachelorette".
Riding a post-Bridesmaids appetite for female-led comedies, "Bachelorette" is an indie production focused on three emotionally-stunted women (Dunst, Lizzy Caplan and Isla Fisher) who go off the deep end when the fourth wheel of their old high-school gang – Becky, the one they called "Pig Face" (Rebel Wilson) – is the first to get married.
Family enjoy moment of movie magic
HOLLYWOOD actress Kirsten Dunst gave one little boy a treat during a visit to Crete arranged by a Whitley Bay charity.
Joshua Mann had his picture taken with the Spider-Man actress after meeting her while she was on the island filming her latest movie, The Two Faces of January, co-starring Viggo Mortensen.
Joshua and his family, from Spennymoor in County Durham, were enjoying a break in the sun laid on by the Sara's Hope Foundation, founded to offer respite breaks to children and young people battling cancer.
The charity was set up in memory of Whitley Bay teenager Sara Hoburn after she died in 2001 at the age of 16 from a form of colon cancer.
Joshua's is one of 22 families to have visited the retreat since it was opened last summer.
Charity founder Ged Hoburn said it was a pleasure to see the young patients and their families enjoying quality time together.
He said: "We spend a lot of time with the families out there, and we see them blossom.
So, the U.S. trailer for "On The Road" was released yesterday. Watch it below:
"On The Road" will hit theaters next December 21st.
Millennium sees 'Upside'
Millennium Entertainment has acquired U.S. rights to Juan Diego Solana's sci-fi romancer "Upside Down," starring Kirsten Dunst and Jim Sturgess.
The company will release the film in both 2D and 3D in 2013. Aton Soumache, Dimitri Rassam, Alexis Vonarb, Claude Leger and Jonathan Vanger produced and Phil Hope and James W. Skotchdopole serve as exec producers.
"Upside," penned by Solana, centers on a man kept apart from the girl he has loved his entire life. He must risk everything to access the forbidden world of affluence that exists literally above him while manipulating the gravitational force that physically pulls him back to his world.
Millennium Entertainment's Tristen Tuckfield negotiated the deal with Gregoire Melin from Kinology, who also coproduced the film alongside Frederique Dumas from Studio 37/Orange.

I had the opportunity to watch "Bachelorette" on VoD on its release, and was excited to do this update for you. I have added over 1000+ high quality screen captures in our gallery, you can see the previews below and the full captures in our gallery. Will be sure to add special features as soon the DVD is launched!
Finally I was able to find high quality and untagged pictures of Kirsten and Viggo on set in Athens last October 15. The pictures are really gorgeous! The shootings will be done in Athens and Plaka, and soon they will be moving to Turkey. Check the previews below, and the full set in our gallery:
We know On The Road is out everywhere but USA – which will be open next December 21st – and you can already buy the DVD through Amazon.fr. It's set to be released TOMORROW in both DVD and Blu-Ray format. So if you didn't see it yet and can't wait, just order your copy!
I have up 250 beautiful blu-ray quality screencaptures of Kristen's breathtaking performance as Camille, the Dean Moriarty's wife. Her appearance isn't as long as we wanted to, but it worth watching nonetheless. Check the previews below, and full captures in our gallery:
I have a little update today. Added some pictures of Kirsten, Lizzy and Isla on Good Morning America last month, plush a portrait Kiki did to NY Times last year. Check it:

False advertisement.
Posted Dec 8, 2014Room appeared clean which was good, but wasn't made clear that hotel is right by freeway with thin cheap windows, and when we called front desk to perhaps make our stay more comfortable we where told we couldn't try a different room because our beds where "unmade", and breakfast from 6 to 9am?? Sounds like a scam from miser managers to provide less breakfast to guest who may be on a trip and not a early work schedule, and beware they lie about having a cafe restaurant which provides "Americana food".

He recently expressed to me online that he's basically had enough with the Marines and wants to go home. Is there any way he can do that simply and legally? Would he have to get a dishonorable discharge. Seriously, I know nothing about the military having come from a long line of cowards. Can he just leave or is there some special process?

Goosey Goosey Gander, why do you march like that?
When you see military parades of countries that we would consider to be either potential or old enemies (Iran, North Korea, China, Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, the Soviet Union, etc.), the troops march using the "goose step", but you never see that style of marching used by NATO or other friendly nation armies.
I understand that western countries would probably not want to be seen goose-stepping due to the whole WW2 Germany connection, but why is it so popular with communist and other regimes? Just because it looks so bad-ass scary or because it gives an impression of complete discipline?
You pay for our safety, so we don't have to.

Help with the text of a poem about the disparity between funding for education and the military?
I'm looking for the text of a poem/ statement that was printed on tea towels (where I saw it but could very well also be elsewhere) about how governments are willing to spend millions on armies and navies but schools have to hold cake stalls to provide basic services. The tea towels were popular among my friends' hippy parents in Canberra, Australia in the early- to mid-80s and were possibly printed by the Nuclear Disarmament Party, but just as likely found elsewhere. I've searched with all the terms I can think of but can't find the text. Can you help? Thanks.

NEW! Fight Farage on your doorstep!
Keep your letterbox clear of UKIP election material with our new letterbox sticker. £1 each plus plus 80p p and p
Or splash out and get them for your neighbours too with a pack of 5 for £4 plus 80p p and p
The stickers are 160mm x 45mm so should fit nicely onto most letterboxes.
Here's another design if you didn't like the first - or get both!
Daily Mail sticker montage poster - Mark's slightly odd appeal
The slightly odd appeal was launched in Christmas 2014 but its going to continue running throughout the year. Here's the story:
In April last year a Daily Mail journalist posing as unemployed and hungry approached a food bank run by the Trussell Trust, saying he was facing financial difficulties. The food bank gave the reporter a bag of groceries worth £40 and the Mail ran a major article criticising the Trust for not checking if people were really unemployed. It was an ugly and unjustified attack upon food banks and those that use them as a result of austerity.
Fortunately as a result of the Mail's mauling the Trussell Trust received a significant boost in donations.
Mark would like to do his bit.
Greg Matthews, the designer on the 100 Acts of Dissent, has created a collage of the Daily Mail Free Zone stickers that have been displayed on trains around the country, ALL PROFITS from the collage will be donated to the Trussell Trust.
So every time you buy a Daily Mail Free Zone collage you know that all profits go to a necessary home.
Price is £8:00 plus £4:00 postage and packing
Farage Fridge Magnet
In a bid to warn people of the build up of fridge-farage we have a special fridge magnet.85mm x 40 mm Price is £2:50 plus £1:50 postage and packing

As followers of the 100 Acts know there has been a campaign to find a new definition for the word 'farage', here is the winning definition.
farage: (noun) the liquid found at the bottom of the bin or waste container.
(pronounced fah-ridj in the south and fah-radj in the north)
To celebrate here are some handy stickers for your bins - 235mm x100mm. Cost is 3 for £5 plus £1.50 p and p.
The Farage EP by Johnny and the Baptists
There has been a competition to find a new meaning for the word "farage" (pronounced fah radj) and Mark commissioned Jonny and the Baptists to compose a song for the winning definition.
Composed and performed by the songsters UKIP tried to gag. It is very good. The Farage EP - Jonny and the Baptists £3 plus £1.50 p and p

I have tried this product(in addition to the other RTF seed) and am very pleased with the results so far! some patches were in shade and some in sun. every patch covered has grass growing now. this is very easy to use and easy to keep moist. I hope I will continue to see growth for a little while and then return in the spring.

So, I was bored and decided to make a simple system for playing Wow, or D3. I kept it cheap, but didn't compromise where it counts (Mobo,PSU). I tried to stay away from deals that won't be around at a later time. This is by no means the cheapest you can put this system together, and, one or two of the items (HDD n DVD burner) can be bought as a bundle. I stayed away from SDD, since it's double the price of an HDD.
The case I chose is by no means the only choice, I picked it because it's just big enough to fit an after market cooler, has modern options, and ranks right up there with the Antec 300 when keeping your system cool at 10 bucks less. This is more of a guide to go by if you want to build a system that can handle most games you throw its way. Don't expect running everything at max, I mean, you get what you pay for, but, this system should keep the average gamer happy (If you're not average make your own system :). The PSU I picked is 80 rated, but only 500W. This should be more than enough for what's in the system, and doing some Over clocking. Want to add a *2nd GPU, I'd suggest a 650W card, 80 rated. The after market cooler I picked is the standard goto, CM Hyper 212 evo. This is optional, if you don't plan on over clocking, you won't need it. It just barely fits in the case I selected, but it fits. Want a bigger case? There are some good options for 20 - 30 dollars more, Cooler master Storm scout 2 can be bought on sale for 70ish here and there, I like the RoseWill R5 myself, it's large and can be found on sale for 59.99 at times. *The motherboard I picked is 8+2, the cheapest you'll find one, basically. It has 1 PCIe x 16, and one PCIe x 4. This means the Mobo is less than ideal for running duel cards, the x 4 will take a 2nd card, but, it will bottleneck. If you want the most out of your card, go with 990, and not 970. Just make sure it's 8+2 if you plan on over clocking. So, here it is. Case Rosewill Challenger http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147153 PSU Corsair CX500 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139027 CPU Fx-6300 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113286 Mobo GB 970A UD3 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128519 GPU PowerColor HD 7850 2Gb http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131473 Ram Team Vulcan 8Gb (2x4) DDR3 1600 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313355 HDD Seagate Barracuda 1TB 64MB 7200 RPM http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840 DVD Asus DVD/Burner http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135204 *Aftermarket CPU cooler CM Hyper 212 Evo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099 Total in cart: 690.91 There are discounts, and bundles that would lower this price, I'm not taking that into consideration. Once again, the Aftermarket cooler is optional, also, if you want a blu-ray player, it's going to cost more. You might notice I didn't add a OS (aka windows 7) this will add 90 - 100 to the cost of the system. I also didn't add in a monitor, or keyboard and mouse, Assume at least another 150 if you need these also. Anyway, this is not the best deal for the money you can get right now, this is simply a system which will work well, and the general price of items right now. Good luck. |
This should run D3 at 1080P.
If you wait around for deals, you should be able to make this system for at least $100 less that the 690 stated. The Mobo was on sale the other day for 84.99, this sale is common. PSU (or the CX500M) is on sale at times (w/mail in) for 34.99 The GPU is 6% off right now (150). The *Ram was 52.99 a week or two ago. Common sale. So, this system can be put together for less than 600 if you buy on sale over say 2 months. *Don't believe the BS, Team Vulcan Ram is quality ram, only people who seem to have problems with it are friends of friends.

Our first time at the Vortex...wonderfully quaint! The play and cast of The Seven Year Itch was wonderful! Definitely worth it and it won't be the last show we see here.
We were in Albuquerque just for the weekend and happened to find out about the Vortex Theatre's Shakespeare festival going on at the time. What a great find! Took us a while to fine, as you can't see it from the main road, and when we got in there and saw how small of a place it was, with a... More
The two man show was outstanding. The staff was very friendly, excellent seating arrangments. Snacks and drinks were available. Parking on the street.
Every time you go it's like a different theater as they rearrange then seating for each production. Often have a fresh approach to classics, fun with comedies, and three great Shakespeare's each summer never a ho hum evening.
Found out about a production of Romeo and Juliet through one of the local free artsy papers at the Vortex theatre. It was a little tough to find but we did. We also purchased our tickets ($15 each) online. The theatre is very very small I don't think it seats more than 100 people. The production was well done and... More
We are from out of town, but go to the Vortex whenever we visit. This small theater puts on cutting edge plays, with terrific local actors at a very low admission cost. Recently we saw a great producation of King Lear (with modern dress) and years ago saw Sondheim's Assassins--a very off beat musical. The theater is just off Central... More

Monku no Tsukeyou ga Nai Love Comedy [Manga/Light Novel]
Summary: Kanaruzawa Sekai, "The God Who Lived A Thousand Years", is a beautiful girl with silver hair and red eyes. She's pompous and does not know much about her surroundings, and despite her childish appearance, she can tolerate alcohol and tobacco, and spends her day in her mansion reading books. Offered to her as a "living sacrifice" is high school student Kirishima Yuuki. As he was told she'd grant her one thing in exchange of being the sacrifice, Kirishima said: "Kanaruzawa Sekai-san, marry me." And so, they start to live their life together---but their days without peace nor love became disrupted, as the world began to be disordered due to a terrifying secret concerning the whole world. A comedically pure love, and a never-ending story begins here! The comicalization of the light novel "Monku no Tsukeyou ga Nai Love Comedy Chapter 1 just came out today. Seem pretty interesting. Despite being named a "love comedy", there seems to be quite a bit of dark tone in here. The main girl is pretty interesting, too. For a moment I thought I'm looking at a gender-bent version of King Pin. |

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
The good, the too bad and the ugly
It eats up the biggest piece of the civic tax pie, yet it took until last week for the Winnipeg Police Service to release its annual report for 2010 -- providing the public with police-related information that's immediately dated.
That rant aside, it was good to read about the hard work of our city's finest and some of the awards presented in 2010. One went to constables Lana Borroughs and David Aitken for their life-saving efforts after they rescued a baby born face down in a toilet.
Const. Michael Laberge was praised for his efforts to save a young boy from the high and fast waters of the Red River.
The diligent work of counterfeit cop, Kathryn Antymis -- recognized as a top Canadian in her field -- was worthy of mention as was Staff Sgt. Bud Guest, founder of the busy and zealous street crime unit.
With science becoming increasingly important to policing, Sgt. Karen Tymchuk received a nod for her work in forensic investigation and her leadership in developing procedures and fleshing out issues that significantly contributed to the continued level of excellence in her unit.
Sgt. John Burchill was invested into the Order of Merit of the Police Forces by the then-Governor General Michaelle Jean for his hard work over many years researching and bringing about best police practices. An educator, speaker and published writer, some of his work meant putting charter issues and new law into plain-speak and then putting it into practice -- work that's been welcomed in departments across the country.
But that award is so 2010. Unexpectedly, the Winnipeg Police Service was unable to find a place where Burchill could put his police training and law degree to work. A big loss, the officer, who spearheaded the investigation that led to the full exoneration of Thomas Sophonow years after his conviction for the 1981 murder of Barbara Stoppel, has moved on and now works in a university setting.
There was chit-chat about helicopters, new logos on cars and the cadet program but, as usual, the meat-and-potatoes -- the crime numbers -- garner the most attention.
And 2010 was celebratory in the sense that police report a decrease in violent crime -- down nine per cent overall.
Now, about that nine per cent. The already-old data may not be as positive as the spin doctors would have us believe. It's difficult to measure violence with the numbers supplied by the service. The lion's share of violent crime is tied to assaults, but the service doesn't differentiate between a push-and-shove bar dispute and a vicious attack with a tire iron. National statistics suggest that minor assaults are increasingly being written off, leading to a drop in the overall rate of violence that overshadows a general upward trend of the more serious attacks.
Winnipeg police do, however, track domestic violence and note that crimes involving domestic matters were up three per cent in 2010 and incidents where both parties were charged jumped by 36 per cent.
If crime numbers have any relevance (and do they really?), it's only when they are compared over extended time. And if that's the case, the first decade of the new century really is nothing to celebrate. Homicides in 2010 were up almost 40 per cent over 2000.
Sexual assaults were up 21 per cent during the same period, as were robberies (18 per cent) and firearms offences (26 per cent.)
The 2011 annual reporting from the police may not come until 2013, but the service's CrimeStat computerized reporting of some specific crimes for 2011 is hardly encouraging.
Homicides spiked savagely in 2011 -- up 86 per cent -- and set a new, dubious record. Almost half of the 39 killings were set in the beleaguered North End.
Shootings were up nine per cent in 2011 over 2010, almost a third of them in the North End.
But while robberies were up 18 per cent between 2000 and 2010, the good news is that CrimeStat reporting tells us that business and non-business robberies were stable with no increase in overall numbers for 2011.
That good news didn't hold in District 1, which includes our struggling downtown, where the numbers say that commercial and non-commercial robberies were up (six per cent and eight per cent respectively) in 2011.
Sexual assaults remain a priority. They were up in 2010 and the trend is continuing, according to CrimeStat -- up 12 per cent citywide with a 38 per cent bump in District 1 for 2011.
It's clear that the Winnipeg Police Service will have a lot of frontline work in the coming 12 months. And it's the kind of work that piques the interest of academics, social justice advocates, policy makers and the ordinary taxpayer.
Many organizations produce quarterly reports letting stakeholders know the lay of the land and very few of them carry the heavy profile that the police do.
Hopefully, the tardy arrival of the latest annual report from police is just a blip and not a new practice.
Robert Marshall is a retired Winnipeg police detective.

while many may understand your plight (and yes i prefer to play Sci toons as well), what cmdrskyfaller is spot on for the most part.
pigs will fly before the Sci class ever gets to the point it once was.
trust me, ive been eager for new ships to explore sci toons with in hopes of finding a really nice combo, but alas, it has not happened.
i will admit, even thought it is not perfect, but i broke down and purchased the caitain carrier. ive had fun with it, and even had some learning curves, but it brings back the fun (to a degree) of relying on sci skills and some creative tools to win, verses pure dmg output.
we shall see what these new ones bring, but dont expect much.

From MSDN Search the mask data from most significant bit (MSB) to least significant bit (LSB) for a set bit (1).
unsigned char _BitScanReverse ( unsigned long * Index, unsigned long Mask );
Parameters [out] Index Loaded with the bit position of the first set bit (1) found.
[in] Mask The 32-bit or 64-bit value to search.
Return Value 0 if the mask is zero; nonzero otherwise.
Remarks If a set bit is found, the bit position of the first set bit found is returned in the first parameter. If no set bit is found, 0 is returned; otherwise, 1 is returned.
Please tell me how to implement a safe and fast _BitScanReverse() function on OS X? Do I have to use assembly or is there more simple way?
