IUP::Manual::05_DialogLayout - Dialog layout composition
IUP::Manual::05_DialogLayout <<< this document
Abstract Layout
Most interface toolkits employ the concrete layout model, that is, control positioning in the dialog is absolute in coordinates relative to the upper left corner of the dialogs client area. This makes it easy to position the controls on it by using an interactive tool usually provided with the system. It is also easy to dimension them. Of course, this positioning intrinsically depends on the graphics systems resolution. Moreover, when the dialog size is altered, the elements remain on the same place, thus generating an empty area below and to the right of the elements. Besides, if the graphics systems resolution changes, the dialog inevitably will look larger or smaller according to the resolution increase or decrease.
IUP implements an abstract layout concept, in which the positioning of controls is done relatively instead of absolutely. For such, composition elements are necessary for composing the interface elements. They are boxes and fillings invisible to the user, but that play an important part. When the dialog size changes, these containers expand or retract to adjust the positioning of the controls to the new situation.
Watch the codes below. The first one refers to the creation of a dialog for the Microsoft Windows environment using its own resource API. The second uses IUP. Note that, apart from providing the specification greater flexibility, the IUP specification is simpler, though a little larger. In fact, creating a dialog on IUP with several elements will force you to plan your dialog more carefully on the other hand, this will actually make its implementation easier.
Moreover, this IUP dialog has an indirect advantage: if the user changes its size, the elements (due to being positioned on an abstract layout) are automatically re-positioned horizontally.
The composition elements includes vertical boxes (IUP::Vbox), horizontal boxes (IUP::Hbox) and filling (IUP::Fill). There is also a depth box (IUP::Zbox) in which layers of elements can be created for the same dialog, and the elements in each layer are only visible when that given layer is active.
$dialog = IUP::Dialog->new( TITLE=>'Title',child=>
IUP::Hbox->new( MARGIN=>"15x15", GAP=>10, child=>[
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Ok", SIZE=>"40"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Cancel", SIZE=>"40"),
Following, the abstract layout representation of this dialog:
Layout Hierarchy:
+-> IUP::Hbox
Layout Visualization:
Native Sizes (Window and Client)
Because of the dynamic nature of the abstract layout IUP elements have implicit many types of size. But the native elements have only two types of size: Window and Client. The Window size reflects the bounding rectangle of the element. The Client size reflects the inner size of the window that excludes the decorations and margins. For many elements these two sizes are equal, but for many containers they are quite different. See some examples bellow.
The IUP sizes (User, Natural and Current) described bellow are all related to the Window size.
The native Client size is used only internally to reposition the elements in the abstract layout, but it is available using the CLIENTSIZE attribute.
IUP Sizes
Natural Size
IUP does not require that the application specifies the size of any element. The sizes are automatically calculated so the contents of each element is fully displayed. This size is called Natural size. The Natural size is calculated just before the element is mapped to the native system and every time Map is called, even if the element is already mapped.
The Natural size of a container is the size that allows all the elements inside the container to be fully displayed. Important: even if the element is invisible its size will be included in the size of its containers, except when FLOATING=Yes.
So consider the following code and its result. Each button size is large enough to display their respective text. If the dialog size is increased or reduced by the size handlers in the dialog borders the buttons do not move or change their sizes.
use IUP ':all';
my $dialog = IUP::Dialog->new( TITLE=>"IupDialog", FONT=>"Helvetica, Bold 14" ,child=>
IUP::Vbox->new( child=>[
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Button Very Long Text"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Mid Button"),
Current Size and User Size (SIZE or RASTERSIZE)
When the application defines the SIZE or RASTERSIZE attributes, it changes the User size in IUP. The initial internal value is "0x0". When set to
undef the User size is internally set to "0x0".
By default the layout computation uses the Natural size of the elements to compose the layout of the dialog, but if the User size is defined then it is used instead of the Natural size, except for containers (not including the dialog) where the User size will be used only if bigger than the Natural size. For the dialog, when the User size is not defined, the Natural size is used only if bigger than the Current size, so in this case the dialog will automatically increase its size to fit all its contents, but if the Natural size is smaller then the dialog size will remains the same, i.e. the dialog will not automatically shrink its size.
The returned value for SIZE or RASTERSIZE is the Current size in IUP. It returns the native Window size of the element after the element is mapped to the native system. Before mapping, the returned value is the User size defined by SIZE or RASTERSIZE attributes if any, otherwise they are
Defining the SIZE attribute of the buttons in the example we can make all have the same size. (In the following example the dialog size was changed after it was displayed on screen)
use IUP ':all';
my $dialog = IUP::Dialog->new( TITLE=>"IupDialog", FONT=>"Helvetica, Bold 14" ,child=>
IUP::Vbox->new( child=>[
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Button Very Long Text", SIZE=>"50x"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"short", SIZE=>"50x"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Mid Button", SIZE=>"50x"),
So when EXPAND=NO (see bellow) for elements that are not containers if User size is defined then the Natural size is ignored.
If you want to adjust sizes in the dialog do it after the layout size and positioning are done, i.e. after the dialog is mapped or after Refresh is called.
Another way to increase the size of elements is to use the EXPAND attribute. When there is room in the container to expand an element, the container layout will expand the elements that have the EXPAND attribute set to YES, HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL accordingly, even if they have the User size defined.
The default is EXPAND=NO, but for containers is EXPAND=YES.
Using EXPAND in the example, we obtain the following result:
use IUP ':all';
my $dialog = IUP::Dialog->new( TITLE=>"IupDialog", FONT=>"Helvetica, Bold 14" ,child=>
IUP::Vbox->new( child=>[
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Button Very Long Text"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"short", EXPAND=>"HORIZONTAL"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Mid Button", EXPAND=>"HORIZONTAL"),
So for elements that are NOT containers, when EXPAND is enabled the Natural size and the User size are ignored.
For containers the default behavior is to always expand or if expand is disabled they are limited to the Natural size. As a consequence (if the User size is not defined in all the elements) the dialog contents can only expand and its minimum size is the Natural size, even if EXPAND is enabled for its elements. In fact the actual dialog size can be smaller, but its contents will stop to follow the resize and they will be clipped at right and bottom.
If the expansion is in the same direction of the box, for instance expand="VERTICAL" in the Vbox of the previous example, then the expandable elements will receive equal spaces to expand according to the remaining empty space in the box. This is why elements in diferent boxes does not align perfectly when EXPAND is set.
To reduce the size of the dialog and its containers to a size smaller than the Natural size the SHRINK attribute of the dialog can be used. If set to YES all the containers of the dialog will be able to reduce its size. But be aware that elements may overlap and the layout result could be visually bad if the dialog size is smaller than its Natural size.
Notice that in the example the dialog inicial size will be 0x0 because it is not defined. The picture shown was captured after manually resizing the dialog. So when using SHRINK usually you will also need to set the dialog initial size.
use IUP ':all';
my $dialog = IUP::Dialog->new( TITLE=>"IupDialog", FONT=>"Helvetica, Bold 14", SHRINK=>"YES" ,child=>
IUP::Vbox->new( child=>[
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Button Very Long Text"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"short", EXPAND=>"HORIZONTAL"),
IUP::Button->new(TITLE=>"Mid Button", EXPAND=>"HORIZONTAL"),
Layout Hierarchy
The layout of the elements of a dialog in IUP has a natural hierarchy because of the way they are composed together.
To create a node simply call one of the pre-defined constructors like IUP::Label, IUP::Button, IUP::Canvas, and so on. To create a branch just call the constructors of containers like IUP::Dialog, IUP::Frame, IUP::Vbox, and so on. Internally they all call Create to create branches or nodes. To destroy a node or branch call Destroy.
Some of the constructors already append children to its branch, but you can add other children using Append or Insert. To remove from the tree call Detach.
For the element to be visible Map must be called so it can be associated with a native control. Show, ShowXY or Popup will automatically call Map before showing a dialog. To remove this association call Unmap.
But there is a call order to be able to call theses functions that depends on the state of the element. As you can see from these functions there are 3 states: created, appended and mapped. From created to mapped it is performed one step at a time. Even when the constructor receives the children as a parameter Append is called internally. When you detach an element it will be automatically unmapped if necessary. When you destroy an element it will be automatically detached if necessary. So explicity or implicity there will be a call to:
$elem->Create ->>> $elem->Append ->>> $elem->Map
$elem->Destroy <<<- $elem->Detach <<<- $elem->Unmap
A more simple and fast way to move an element from one position in the hierarchy to another is using Reparent.
The dialog is the root of the hierarchy tree. To retrieve the dialog of any element you can simply call GetDialog, but there are other ways to navigate in the hierarchy tree.
To get all the children of a container call GetChild or GetNextChild. To get just the next control with the same parent use GetBrother. To get the parent of a control call GetParent.
You can access any child of the element using the notation "$elem->[n]->[n]....", where n is the index of the child. For example:
my $dialog = IUP::Dialog->new(child=>
my $cancel_button = $dialog->[1]->[2];
Layout Display
The layout size and positioning is automatically updated by Map. Map also updates the dialog layout even if it is already mapped, so using it or using Show, ShowXY or Popup (they all call Map) will also update the dialog layout. The layout size and positioning can be manually updated using Refresh, even if the dialog is not mapped.
After changing containers attributes or element sizes that affect the layout the elements are NOT immediately repositioned. Call Refresh for an element inside the dialog to update the dialog layout. To force a redraw of an element without layout update call Update.
The Layout update is done in two phases. First the layout is computed, this can be done without the dialog being mapped. Second is the native elements update from the computed values.
The Layout computation is done in 3 steps: Natural size computation, update the Current size and update the position.
The Natural size computation is done from the inner elements up to the dialog (first for the children then the element). User size (set by RASTERSIZE or SIZE) is used as the Natural size if defined, if not usually the contents of the element are used to calculate the Natural size.
Then the Current size is computed starting at the dialog down to the inner elements on the layout hierarchy (first the element then the children). Children Current size is computed according to layout distribution and containers decoration. At the children if EXPAND is set, then the size specified by the parent is used, else the natural size is used.
Finally the position is computed starting at the dialog down to the inner elements on the layout hierarchy, after all sizes are computed.

Schwartz's energy bill: What he said
Sen. Gail Schwartz's energy bill is on its way to the House after an interesting vote among Republicans.
Schwartz, of Snowmass Village, is one of the key Democratic incumbents the GOP is trying to unseat in November. When her measure, Senate Bill 100, came up for a final vote on Monday, lawmakers were asked if there were any "no" votes.
A recording of the vote makes it sound as if the "no" votes came like dominoes. Dave Schultheis. Greg Brophy. Josh Penry. Scott Renfroe. Shawn Mitchell. Nancy Spence. Ted Harvey. Mark Scheffel. Keith King. A pause and then Kevin Lundberg.
But watching the vote was another matter, as it often is. Lawmakers in the Senate frequently look to see how their caucus members are voting before raising a hand. Senate Democrats do this just as much as Republicans but I happened to be seated at the press table when the Schwartz bill came up and had a clear view of the Republicans.

Judd Apatow Tribute
Now available for sale HERE
I'm really excited to be participating in Gallery 1988′s tribute to Judd Apatow (who will also be hosting), which opens December 4th. I decided to go with one of my all-time favorite shows, Freaks and Geeks. I remember watching it when it first came out and I was in high school (I'm old), but have since rewatched the entire series while working in my studio probably a dozen times. If you've never seen it, do yourself a favor and watch it on Netflix immediately.. It's brilliant.
My miniature piece, Careful Not to Pull Their Bra Straps, is inspired by the episode, We've Got Spirit, and portrays McKinley High's finest cheer team & mascot.

Leveraging Multiple Analytic Frameworks to Assess the Stability of Students' Knowledge in Physiology.
Abstract When a student explains a biological phenomenon, does the answer reflect only the product of retrieving knowledge or does it also reflect a dynamic process of constructing knowledge? To gain insight into students' dynamic knowledge, we leveraged three analytic frameworks-structures-behaviors-functions (SBF), mental models (MM), and conceptual dynamics (CD). To assess the stability of student knowledge, we asked undergraduate students to explain the same physiological phenomenon three times-once verbally, once after drawing, and once after interpreting a diagram.

Commercial – Fayettville GA Fences
Fayettville is home to many commercial businesses. Commercial fences, much like residential fences tend to serve a dual purpose – enhance perimeter security and add some style to the property. Also, Fayettville GA commercial fences tend to be put under heavier use that residential fences, so the right type and style of fence can make a big difference. Choosing the right materials and design can ensure your commercial fence serves both purposes just like you intend.
Farm – Fayettville GA Fences
Like commercial, Fayettville GA farm fences tend to serve two purposes – keep livestock in and set the boundary lines. They can also add style and elegance to a property. When you choose a fence style for your farm or perimeter, let Precision Fenceworks work with you to figure out the best fit for your needs.
Aluminum Ornamental – Fayettville GA Fences
Aluminum fences bring elegance and beauty to every property they reside. Fayettville GA aluminum fences are similar to more expensive steel or wrought iron fences in appearance, but not in cost. If you are budget minded but want that impressive style, aluminum fencing is the way to go. With strong yet lightweight material, aluminum fencing give you added security and style to any property – whether it is a residential home or a commercial business. We have a wide selection of styles and colors to choose from when it comes to aluminum fences. Aluminum finishes will almost never have to be repainted like iron fences will, and won't show signs of rust or tarnish.
Picket – Fayettville GA Fences
Because their variability and cost, wood picket fences are among the most commonly sought after fence options for homeowners. Fayettville GA wood picket fences are usually less expensive than other materials and offer a unique and natural finish that compliments landscaping and the natural colors and textures of your yard. At Precision Fenceworks, you get to choose the flavor of your fence based on needs, styles, and budget. Tightly spaced wood picket fences offer more privacy and a better boundary for pets and animals. Loosely spaced wood picket fences offer a little more style and visibility. Whatever your needs and your flavor, we listen to help you get the fence you want and need.
Steel Ornamental – Fayettville GA Fences
Are you looking for a low cost, beautifully designed fence for your Fayettville GA home? If so, let the steel ornamental fences from Precision Fenceworks be your perfect solution. Fayettville GA steel ornamental fences are a unique blend of style and maintenance-free design.

When Should I Start Treating Floating Algae In My Pond?
Jacquelyn – Pottsville, PA
Spring is just around the corner and in some areas, algae is already growing. But the question we hear quite often around this time is, "When can I start?" or, "Is it too early to treat?" The answer really depends on what the weather is like at your pond.
Getting a jump start on algae early in the season can help control growth as the season progresses. Fortunately, treating floating algae and preventing its build up is rather easy and really only one factor may stop you…temperature.
Is your pond above or below 50 degrees? This is important because aquatic algicides become less effective when temperatures fall below 60° Fahrenheit. However, understand that treatments will still work, just not as well. If you have an abundance of algae growing when the water temperatures are below 60° Fahrenheit, it's worth a quick treatment to get it under control early. If the water temperature is too low, wait to use any treatment and instead use a lake rake to remove excessive algae if you are not able to chemically treat it. Another up-and-coming product that works very well to skim floating debris is the PondSkim™ Debris Skimmer. The PondSkim™ is a tool that contains a float and debris catcher. Simply drag across the surface of the water to collect debris.
If you have algae already growing in your pond we suggest that you get a jump start on it and you'll be happy you did.

�Keilen Family� � Tami and Shaun Keilen are living the American dream. This former Navy SEAL and his beautiful wife have a successful family business and four gorgeous children. However, this dream becomes a nightmare when the parents return home from work, as four-year-old twin terrors Maile and Malia run roughshod over Shaun and Tami. Well-behaved big sister Haeley (six) and docile baby brother Leighton (one) are lost in the shuffle, as the twins habitually take three entire hours to get dressed, screaming all the while. Tami devotes much of her home time to compulsively housekeeping, and Shaun, who can face any military challenge, can�t hold his ground to the demanding twins. Even Supernanny concedes that, in this house, if she wants to talk to the head of the family, she�ll turn to Maile. Can Mom and Dad regain control and find harmony with their brood? �Supernanny� airs MONDAY, JULY 17 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. (Rebroadcast. OAD 11/11/05)
Hailed by the New York Times as �fascinating� and �required viewing;� praised by Oprah Winfrey, David Letterman and Kelly Ripa; acclaimed by such publications as Newsweek, Hollywood Reporter and The New Yorker; and lauded by parents and nannies across America, �Supernanny� is a hit. Jo Frost, as Supernanny, can tame the wildest toddler, soothe the savage six-year-old and get the most difficult child to overcome problems with behavior, sleep, mealtime, potty training and other challenges that have vexed parents around the world for centuries. After just three episodes of the show aired in the U.K. in summer 2004, Jo Frost became Britain�s hottest new TV star and godsend to desperate parents who were dazzled by her amazing results with misbehaving children. She debuted in America in early 2005 and captivated Americans as well with her practical, no-nonsense style, honed over 16 years of nannying. �Supernanny� is now an international phenomenon; it airs in 47 countries, almost all of them with Frost as Supernanny. Her book, Supernanny: How to Get the Best from Your Children, was a No. 1 New York Times bestseller.
On the show, Jo observes how the parents handle their day-to-day obstacles with their children. Once she�s assessed the pitfalls, she works with the parents, instilling her tried-and-true methods for transforming unwanted behavior. Then, after demonstrating just how well the new style will work and getting unbelievable results from the children, the parents must fly solo with the Supernanny techniques. For several days they try to implement Jo�s suggestions, and she revisits them at the end of the program to help keep them on track for the future. When parents witness Jo�s results and -- even better -- achieve them on their own, they are truly believers in the Supernanny way. Best of all, children and adults alike can enjoy the lasting benefits of a more harmonious family life.
Nick Powell is the creator and executive producer of both the American and British versions of the show. Craig Armstrong is executive producer and Tony Yates the co-executive producer, of the American version. �Supernanny� is produced by Ricochet, Ltd.
�Supernanny� is broadcast with Spanish subtitles via secondary closed captioning. This program carries a TV-PG,L parental guideline.

Trend Alert-Mixed Materials in the KitchenWe've been championing the Mixed Materials Trend during 2016 in a lot of our Kitchen images and we believe this trend will only grow in strength during 2017. By bringing natural materials into our home we add a connection to a lifestyle that celebrates and embraces nature and its unique imperfections. Below are some of our favourite examples.
Surface design that mimics nature
The Stone Blue facia utilises the latest technology in surface design. The textured surface of the wood grain effect makes it a great solid wood replica with all the benefits of a laminate. This has been layered with tonal marble and cool greys for an elegant and refined look.
By using the textured Walnut facia in the industrial style kitchen, warmth has been added to the palette. The tactile mix of textured Walnut, embossed tin wall tiles with textured slate lends personality to the clutter free kitchen.
Exposing and unifying the look
The skylight in the Oak Shaker kitchen is divided by textured wooden beams and exposed sandstone, creating contrasts with the slick finish of the painted plaster. What we choose to expose and hide creates an interesting commentary for any contemporary kitchen.
Mixing materials doesn't always require contrasting textures. The matt doors, matt walls and semi-matt floor tiles combine the same texture but still allow to stand out in the kitchen. The use of one grey hue ties the look together.To keep update with our latest trend alerts by joining our mailing list.

A Chinese man decides to move to Australia after 50 years of living in Shanghai. He buys a small piece of land near the outback. A few days after moving in, the friendly Aussie neighbour decides to go across and welcome the new guy to the region. So he goes next door, but on his way up the drive-way, he sees the Chinese man running around his front yard chasing about 10 hens. Not wanting to interrupt this "Chinese customs", he decides to put the welcome on hold for the day. The next day, he decides to try again, but just as he is about to knock on the front door, he looks through the window and sees the Chinese man urinate into a glass and then drink it. Not wanting to interrupt another "Chinese custom", he decides to put the welcome on hold for yet another day. A day later he decides to give it one last go, but on his way next door he sees the Chinese man leading a cow down the drive-way, pause,and then put his head next to the cow's bum. The Aussie bloke can't handle this, so he goes up to the Chinese man and says "What the hell is it with your Chinese customs? I come over to
welcome you to the neighbourhood, and see you running around the yard after
hens. The next day you are pissing in a glass,and drinking it, and then today,you have your head so close to that cow's bum,it could just about **** on you."
The Chinese man is very taken back and says "Sorry Sir, you do not understand, these aren't Chinese customs I am performing, but Australian customs."
"What do you mean mate" says the Aussie, "Those aren't Australian customs."
"Yes they are", replied the Chinese man,
"for you see, in order for me to become a true Australian,
I must Chase Chicks, Drink Piss, and listen to bull-****.

Now back on topic. :D
Why were proud to be Aussies.
1) Only in Australia... can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.
2) Only in Australia... is "you awake" the standard concept of foreplay.
3) Only in Australia... do Supermarkets make the sick people walk all the way to the back of the store to get their Panadol's etc while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
4) Only in Australia... do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries...and a Diet Coke.
5) Only in Australia... do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counter.
6) Only in Australia... do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway, and store our junk in the garage.
7) Only in Australia... do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place.
8) Only in Australia... do we use the word "politics" to describe the process of Government. "Poli" (poly)in Latin meaning "many" and, "tics" meaning "blood sucking creatures".
9) Only in Australia... do we live by the saying "you're never too pissed if you can still find the floor".

The recommended modernization plan is to renovate and expand vertically the existing building while reducing the risk associated with a major earthquake. The structural components of the building will be retrofitted to better withstand a major earthquake. Additional concrete columns, beams, heavy timber framing members, and metal connectors are needed to strengthen the building. Expansion options may include removing the roof and adding a floor. Existing stairways, restrooms, staff room, electrical room, mechanical room will be modified or relocated to conform to accessibility requirements, life safety related code requirements and owner improvements.
The basement level is built of concrete box frame while the upper two stories are concrete and wood construction. The community rooms and restrooms on the second floor are ADA inaccessible. The partial second floor is built half a story above the roof of the lower floor. This provides for the opportunity to expand the buildng without increasing the number of stories or blocking existing views.
New or alteration construction will meet State (Title 24) and Federal (Americans with Disabilities Act) guidelines. These guidelines detail minimum requirements and standards for improvements and the corresponding physical dimensions of construction work. The scope of disabled access work anticipated includes: the addition of an elevator; reconfiguring existing restrooms and adding new restrooms; new fire stair; modification of counters, bookshelves and table spacing at the reading room areas; and modification of doors and stairways. Application of the California Accessibility Code and conformance with the latest life safety related code requirements will include: new elevator, and elevator machine room; providing new accessible restrooms, and wider library aisles.
Building code impacts involve the updating of the heating, ventilating, plumbing, fire protection, electrical and other building control system to bring it up to code requirements for life safety.
Current law requires removal of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), including plasterboard walls, floor tiles, and roofing related to the anticipated construction activities associated with seismic retrofit and disabled access construction work. The removal of ACMs will require relocation of the building occupants because floor areas will be affected and there is significant health risks of exposure to airborne particulars associated with the removal of ACMs. Lead that is impacted shall also be abated.
The recommended modernization plan will involve an expansion, possibly of the second story over the reading room at the north end of the building. The interior of the building will be completely remodeled, and office space will be reconfigured to make more efficient use of the space. The interior remodel and seismic work would trigger conformance work on the American with Disabilities Act (ADA). The modernization work will reduce the public area on the first floor of the library, but would recover that loss by expanding. The existing library has no room to expand horizontally. Therefore, expanding the second story maybe the most cost effective solution to make the facility fully accessible.
The expansion space will accommodate an elevator, create additional space for collections, programs, services, reading area, increase staff work area and add restrooms to 1st floor. The elevator will be accessible from inside the building and during closed hours, this will require a secure lobby area be developed.
Improvements include replacing the flooring, adding data/electrical outlets, and update of the meeting room. Work includes remodeling the existing staff lounge, restrooms, and storage. Also included is window replacement, and new lighting.
- The existing wood structure over a box-frame concrete foundation provides for a less than ideal construction for library use.
- Although there are many structural weaknesses, there are also many opportunities for seismic upgrade. Special attention should be placed on the concentrated loads placed upon the structure by a new architectural layout.
- All point of connection must be evaluated and strengthened as required to resist lateral forces.
Non-Structural Deficiencies
- Acoustic tile ceiling finishes could potentially become falling hazards.
- Any high windows could potentially become a falling glass hazard.
- Reconstruct second story roof and first story roof diaphragms.
- Add continuous shear walls from basement to roof.
- Add concrete foundations to support new shear walls and other structural elements.
- Add shotcrete to strengthen basement foundation.
- Add collector beams, and steel moment frames to transfer loads between perimeter walls and interior load bearing walls.
- Anchor or otherwise seismically brace all ceiling finishes.
- High windows should be replaced with tempered glass or other type of safety glass.
- Handicap parking and curb cut are needed in front of the building.
- The entire second floor, which holds the public restrooms and the meeting room, is inaccessible.
- The existing layout does not allow access into some areas.
- Work areas, staff lounge, and other public amenities are not accessible.
- Provide accessible parking in front of the library.
- Add an elevator to reach all building levels including the basement.
- Reconfigure the existing layout to make a more efficient use of space.
- Make all work areas and public areas accessible.
- The exiting HVAC equipment is in need of replacement. It is anticipated that the proposed renovation will necessitate replacement of all mechanical equipment, and air distribution systems and upgrade to accommodate new space.
- Replace all mechanical equipment and distribution system with an updated energy-efficient system.
- The main electrical service panel is in poor condition. It is anticipated that the proposed renovation will necessitate replacement of all electrical equipment and the power distribution system.
- The building lacks adequate telecommunication and data lines for a flexible layout.
- Replace all electrical equipment and the power distribution system with a system of sufficient capacity for the proposed expansion.
- Provide telecommunication and data line panel and distribution system.
- It is anticipated that the proposed renovation work will necessitate the replacement of all electrical life/safety equipment such emergency lighting, exit signs, fire alarms, and smoke detectors.
- The building lacks adequate number of fire extinguishers.
- The building needs security lighting, and security grilles.
- Replace or add life safety equipment as required.
- Add fire extinguishers as required.
- Provide new security lighting, and security grilles in the existing design.
- Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM's) are identified throughout the building.
- Abate asbestos if found in the domestic hot water piping and fitting insulation, aircell insulation on ducts, and HVAC duct joint tape.
- Where impacted by construction, abate asbestos in plaster walls and ceilings, caulking/glazing putty on windows, exhaust flue, vinyl sheet/tile floor and mastic, stucco walls, and built up roof.
- Lead that is impacted by construction shall also be abated.
- Interior finishes need refurbishment.
- The current meeting room lacks multi-purpose multi-media capability.
- Study rooms are not provided.
- Replace all interior finishes.
- Expand the use of the existing meeting room to include a amenities for multi-media\ multi-purpose activities.
- Provide study room(s).
- Replace existing windows with energy efficient operable windows.
- Existing trees need maintenance.
- Existing plantings in front of the building need to be refurbished and reconfigured to increase visibility.
- Prune trees in front of the building.
- Restore planting areas in front of the building after construction.

Kevin Vaughan and the Crimson will host Princeton on Senior Day April 21 (Gil Talbot).
PHILADELPHIA – Kevin Vaughan scored two goals, dished out an assist and collected five ground balls, while Jeff Cohen amassed five points with a hat trick and two assists, but the Harvard men's lacrosse team dropped a road conference game at Penn by a score of 13-11 Saturday afternoon.
Will Walker also added two goals for the Crimson, which falls to 6-6 overall and 2-2 in the Ivy League. Goalie Jake Gambitsky finished with eight saves, while Keegan Michel won nine faceoffs for Harvard. Brian Feeney stopped 13 shots, and Anthony Adler and John Conneely contributed three goals apiece for Penn, which moves to 2-8 overall and 1-4 in the Ancient Eight.
Up next, the Crimson will host Princeton in the final home game of the regular season Saturday at 1 p.m. Prior to the game, Harvard will hold a Senior Day ceremony.
Cohen got the Crimson on the scoreboard with an unassisted tally to the right of the net at 9:50, tying the game, 1-1. Harvard added two more goals, as Cohen found the back of the net again at 7:22, and Daniel Eipp fired for a score on the break at 6:35, as the Crimson extended its advantage to 3-1. At 5:42, Cohen found Vaughan for a man-up goal, as Harvard opened up a 4-1 lead in the opening quarter.
The Crimson scored again on the transition with 1:58 in the first stanza, as Jack Breit handed out a pass to Will Walker for a tally, making it a 5-3 game in favor of Harvard. The Quakers evened the game, 5-5, with two tallies late in the second quarter, as the contest headed into the intermission tied.
After Harvard won the opening faceoff in the third, Breit fired for a goal only 35 seconds into the frame, putting the Crimson back on top, 6-5. At the 13:03 mark, Andrew Pataki broke a 6-6 tie with a shot into the top right corner of the net, as Harvard reclaimed the lead, 7-6. Penn responded with a 4-0 run to move ahead, 10-7, but Cohen sent a pass to Will Walker for a Harvard goal with 4:51 remaining in the third to get back within two goals.
With one second left in the third, Cohen fired for his third goal of the game, coming off a quick clear down the field for the Crimson, cutting the deficit to just one goal, 10-9. The Quakers tacked on two more goals to go by up three, 12-9, but Harvard got back within two scores with a tally by Will Walker off a pass by Vaughan with 2:51 to go.
Vaughan capped Harvard's scoring with a goal with six seconds left, making it 13-11, as the Crimson could not close the gap.
Penn outshot Harvard, 48-41, and owned an edge in ground balls, 31-26, and faceoffs, 15-11. The Crimson was a perfect 15-of-15 on clear attempts, while the Quakers went 12-of-13.

Pentax X90 superzoom bridge camera
Telescopic sights
Appraising the images taken with Pentax X90, I had mixed feelings. The camera performed incredibly well in certain scenes, while rather disappointing me in others. Colour reproduction in particular can be quite inconsistent, with colours resulting often a bit too cold.
A good all-rounder for those wanting more than point and shoot
Exposure though is almost always spot on. The only complaint is a little overexposure of the highlights in low light situations. The main issue with image quality is noise. Despite a broad ISO sensitivity range, from ISO 80 to ISO 6400, Pentax relies too heavily on noise reduction processing to keep levels of noise down, with the result that even at ISO 400 images show some blurring of fine details and general softening.
From ISO 800 noise starts to creep in badly and at ISO 3200 and ISO 6400 the speckles of colour appearing on the pictures are overwhelming. As a consequence, the X90 would not really be well-suited for serious night time photography.
Compared to the previous superzoom model, the X90 has significantly upgraded the video mode, which is now able to record video footage at 1280 x 720 pixels and 30fps. Unfortunately Pentax has not improved the mic that stays mono and over-sensitive, picking up all sorts of background noise. The movie mode comes with its own Movie Shake Reduction system that I'm afraid is not as effective as the sensor-shift one used with still capture. The camera has an HDMI interface and Pentax has gracefully included a HDMI cable in the camera box.
The other major improvement from the X70 is battery life. The X90 gives you a very respectable 255 pictures per charge. The camera supports SD and SDHC memory cards and it is compatible with Eye-Fi wireless LAN SD memory cards.
Overall, the X90 is a very good all-in-one camera that thanks to its brilliant superzoom lens that covers a wide range of photographic situations. Although at times it handles and behaves like a DSLR, the image quality and noise performance are more in line with other CCD based compacts. While it might not live up to DSLR standards it surely is a good choice for any compact camera user looking to upgrade and at the current asking price it is very good value for money. ®

Ted Williams missed the start of the 1955 baseball season, which was a gloomy one for the Red Sox. Boston was never really a factor in the pennant race and during the middle of the summer, first baseman and hometown hero Harry Agganis fell ill and passed away, in only his second year with the team. In August, the Harlem Globetrotter returned to Fenway Park and in the fall, Boston College took the Fenway gridiron and went undefeated in four football games.
Record: 84-70, 4th in American League
Manager: Michael F. Higgins
Attendance: 1,203,200
On March 18, sticking with his plan to retire, Ted Williams said "my mind is so filled with other things I can't think of returning to baseball right now." Williams didn't return to the Red Sox until his divorce settlement was finalized, and when he did suit up in late May, Boston was already 12 games behind the Yankees. From Ted's return onwards, the Boston actually played better than New York but they could never catch the Bombers.
The day before Williams returned, rookie first baseman Norm Zauchin hit three home runs and drove in 10 runs in a 16-0 victory over Washington at Fenway Park
Another gifted youngster, Harry Agganis, fell ill during a Midwest road-trip in early June and tragically died of complications from pneumonia on June 27 at age 26.
Persevering through this tragedy, the Red Sox pulled to within 1 1/2 games of the Yankees in August, but losses in 14 of their final 18 games left the Red Sox 12 games out at season's end.
Jackie Jensen hit 26 home runs and a collected a league-leading 116 RBIs. Along with Jensen and Zauchin (who hit 27 home runs), Williams ranked among the team's home run leaders despite his early absence. In 1955, Williams actually struck out less often than he homered (24 Ks vs. 28 HRs) and hit .356, though he did not qualify for the batting crown.
Frank Sullivan led Red Sox pitchers with an 18-13 record and Higgins was named AL Manager of the Year after the team improved by 15 wins and finished 84-70.
One particularly memorable moment in the season came before the Red Sox game on May 7, when 19 Hall of Famers - including Red Sox legends Jimmie Foxx, Lefty Grove, Harry Hooper, Duffy Lewis, Tris Speaker and Cy Young - worked out on the field as part of Hall of Fame Day at Fenway Park.
The Georgia Chain Gang returned to Fenway Park in 1955 for the Mayor's Charity Field Day and defeated a local team of Park League All-Stars, 3-2. The following month, the all-scholastic teams in the William Randolph Hearst Sandlot Tournament game played to a 7-7 draw.

I made this granola a week or two ago, and I couldn't wait to share it with you guys! If you haven't had homemade granola, you're completely missing out — the store-bought kind tastes so processed and not nearly as yummy in comparison! Truth be told, I'd usually pick cereal over granola in the supermarket, but homemade? It beats anything, hands down.
And the best part about granola is that you probably have all the ingredients on hand! We have so many bags of dried fruit, nuts, oatmeal and sweet syrups in our house, it's a wonder I don't make this every week. Maybe I'll start!
One trick that made this recipe so much better than my earlier attempts: not adding the dried fruit until after the granola had cooked! I hated having extra-dry, overcooked raisins in prior tries, and this made so much of a difference. Everything just tasted fresher and better!

3 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup coarsely chopped raw almonds
1/2 cup coardsely chopped raw walnuts
1/3 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup honey
2 tbsp flaxseed
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Water, if necessary
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Mix together the oats, almonds, walnuts, sugar, olive oil, honey, flaxseed, and vanilla in a large bowl. Stir well so that everything is mixed through thoroughlt (if you don't have enough liquid to cover everything, you can add a tablespoon or two of water to the mixture).
Spread the mixture in an even layer on a baking sheet lined with Silipat or parchment paper. Bake until golden, about 30 minutes, stirring the granola every 5-10 minutes with a spatula so it will cook evenly. Remove from the oven and stir in the raisins and cranberries. Serve warm or at room temperature, with milk or yogurt.

It's surprising how this comic, created by John T. McCutcheon over 100 years ago, is still completely relevant today. Titled Things Don't Seem Wonderful If You've Seen Them All Your Life, it stars a boy who is completely blase and unimpressed with the cutting-edge technology at the turn-of-the-century.
But while his parents marvel at the automobile, the gramophone, aeroplanes and motion pictures, it's a goat hitched to a wagon that really gets the boy's attention.
And, to be perfectly honest, sometimes we feel the same way walking the halls of CES every year. Sure, there's a lot of neat innovation and the occasional new product, but for the most part it's all stuff we've seen for years that fails to get us excited. But if a company were to demo a goat hitched to a trailer, well that right there would be front-page news. [Reddit via 100 Years Ago Today]

Federal tax issues are taking the forefront for small businesses, including campgrounds and RV resorts, according to consultant David Gorin, former CEO of the National Association of RV Parks and Campgrounds (ARVC).
"The last few years, you can imagine most of the activity here in Washington has been centered around defense, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the war on terrorism," Gorin told state campground leaders attending ARVC's 2009 National Issues Conference last week in Washington, D.C. "While all that continues … tax issues are becoming more and more important, and they affect small business in a lot of ways."
Gorin said the IRS, in particular, is attempting to close what is known as the "tax gap" — the amount of taxes the IRS expects to receive each year versus what is taxpayers actually send to the government.
"(The IRS) claims a good part of that gap is directly related to small businessmen … who under-report income and over-report their expenses," said Gorin, who operates David Gorin and Associates and oversees the Best Parks in America marketing group.
"As you deal with large deficits and the need to generate more and more revenue to cover all the initiatives that are on the table now being paid by stimulus money going forward, how do we raise tax revenue? One of the ways, of course, is to increase taxes. The other way is to reduce the tax gap, and make sure there is increased compliance with tax laws."
Besides increasing the tax burden, IRS efforts to close the tax gap will result in more paperwork, he said.
"There are some very scary discussions about what they are planning on doing to track down the tax-gap individuals, Gorin said. "It has to do with huge amounts of paperwork for small businesses, particularly.
"Instead of giving (IRS form) 1099s just for people who work for you, you will have to give 1099s to everyone that you make payments to, no matter who it is. Having, for example, FedEx send to you a 1099 for every nickel you spend with them, they are then going to report that to the government so there are ways to match expenses to reports.
"There are a lot of things going on in that area. We really have to be careful."

People with asthma can do more than play sports: They can be really good at them. Lots of elite athletes have asthma, and some have won Olympic gold medals.
Even if you don't want to be a professional athlete, you benefit from being active and playing sports. Sports keep you fit. They help you to stay at a healthy weight. Exercise also strengthens the breathing muscles in your chest. If you have asthma, this is very important because it can help your lungs work better.
Sports have great emotional benefits, too: Exercising causes the body to produce endorphins, body chemicals that can help people feel more peaceful and happy. Exercise helps some people sleep better. It can even help with problems like mild depression: People who feel strong and powerful can see themselves in a better light.
Some sports may be better choices for people with asthma. Golf, yoga, and gentle biking are less likely to trigger asthma flare-ups. Sports like baseball, football, gymnastics, and shorter track and field events tend to be good for people with asthma, too.
Some sports may be more challenging for people with asthma. These include endurance sports like long-distance running or cycling or sports that demand a lot of energy without a lot of rest time (like soccer and basketball). Cold-weather sports like cross-country skiing or ice hockey also can be difficult. But that doesn't mean you can't do these sports if you truly enjoy them.
Many athletes with asthma have found that with proper training and the right dose and use of medicine, they can play any sport they want.
Before playing sports, your asthma must be under control. In other words, you shouldn't be having lots of flare-ups. The best way to get asthma under control is by following your action plan and taking all asthma medicines that your doctor prescribes.
If you take long-term control medicine, you'll need to use it even when you feel OK. Skipping these daily medicines can make symptoms worse. Forgetting to take your medicines before exercise can lead to severe flare-ups. You may even need to go to the ER.
Have your quick-relief medicine with you at all times, even during workouts. That way you can take it if you have a flare-up.
Talk with your doctor about your plans to play sports or work out. Your doctor might add some workout strategies to your asthma action plan. These may be things like:
Make sure your coach and teammates know about your asthma. That way they'll understand when you need to stop working out or have a flare-up. After a while, you'll become good at listening to your body so you'll know how to avoid or handle asthma problems at a game or practice.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) The latest black eye for college sports belongs to the NCAA.
In an embarrassing blow to its watchdog image, the NCAA said Wednesday its enforcement staff had botched the high-profile investigation of the University of Miami by improperly conducting at least two depositions while working with an attorney for disgraced booster Nevin Shapiro. Miami has been under investigation since the convicted Ponzi scheme mastermind said he had provided improper benefits to Hurricanes recruits.
President Mark Emmert said he was disappointed and angry with the misstep, acknowledging he had not seen anything like this since taking the NCAA job 2 1/2 years ago. He said some ``people'' involved in this case were no longer working for the NCAA, though he declined to say who they were or whether they had been fired.
He said none of the evidence collected improperly would be used against Miami and that the long-awaited notice of allegations would be delayed until after an external review is completed in approximately two weeks.
It was an ugly stumble for the NCAA, coming less than a week after its annual convention resulted in another round of reforms intended to firm up recruiting rules and other guidelines. And it comes as the organization faces more than a half-dozen lawsuits that could reshape how it does business, including one challenging the $60 million in penalties levied against Penn State for the Jerry Sandusky scandal.
``Of course it hurts, any nick to a public perception that's not favorable to begin with is a problem,'' said Jo Potuto, former chairwoman of the NCAA infractions committee and a constitutional law professor at Nebraska. ``The public perception has never been really favorable to the process or the infractions committee and so this is another hit.''
Emmert tried to reassure schools that the principle of playing by the rules extends into NCAA headquarters in Indianapolis.
``We can't just say it, we've got to do it,'' Emmert said. ``While I have great confidence in the vast majority of cases, when you have something as candidly dramatic as this, you can't just offer words, you have to demonstrate that you're getting this right. The reason I wanted to get this out is to make sure that this is right. We want to hold ourselves to the same standards we hold others to.''
What happens next is anybody's guess.
The external review, which will be conducted by former Justice Department official Kenneth L. Wainstein, a Washington attorney perhaps best known in sports for representing Gilbert Arenas after he brought guns to the Wizards locker room and confronted a teammate.
Wainstein will focus on Miami's case, but he will have the authority to investigate the NCAA's actions in additional cases, too.
The potential list could include the suit brought by former Southern California assistant football coach Todd McNair, who claims the NCAA was ``malicious'' in its investigation into his role in the benefits scandal surrounding Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Frederick Shaller has already said he was convinced the actions of NCAA investigators were ``over the top.''
Wainstein also could look into the UCLA case involving freshman Shabazz Muhammad. In December, The Los Angeles Times reported that NCAA investigator Abigail Grantstein had been fired after her boyfriend was allegedly overheard discussing the case on an airplane. The NCAA has not confirmed the firing. The outside review could have potential ramifications, too, in a lawsuit brought by Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett in the Penn State case.
This is not unfamiliar ground for the NCAA, and it could be that Emmert fears a lawsuit from Miami no matter how the investigation turns out. Former Washington football coach Rick Neuheisel won a $4.5 million settlement from the NCAA and university in 2005, saying he was wrongly fired for gambling in an NCAA basketball pool and failing to be forthright about it with NCAA investigators. Among other accusations, Neuheisel's attorney said the NCAA failed to provide Neuheisel's legal team with an updated version of its bylaws during discovery.
In this case, Emmert concluded something was wrong in the Miami case last fall when bills for an outside attorney showed up on an expense list, a hiring normally approved by the NCAA's general counsel. Emmert said it was not, and that's what initially caught the attention of those inside the Indy headquarters. He also said the person who had hired the lawyer was no longer working at the NCAA, making it more difficult to get information.
The fallout could lead to additional personnel moves, too, Emmert said.
Miami President Donna Shalala said she was ``frustrated, disappointed and concerned'' that the NCAA may have compromised the investigation. Potuto said she was surprised, describing the enforcement staff she dealt with as ``open-minded'' to investigations.
``I don't know about a rogue one or two people, but it is not at all representative of my experience with the enforcement staff people that I dealt with over the years,'' Potuto said. ``Generally we found them (the enforcement staff) to be exceedingly fair to the point that we sometimes thought it impeded forceful investigations.''
Just last week, Emmert told The Associated Press he was pleased that the number of salacious and high-profile cases that dominated 2011 -- a list that included the football programs at Miami, Ohio State and Penn State -- had dissipated, though he was cautious about another big scandal popping. Within days, the hoax about Manti Te'o's girlfriend broke, and Emmert was briefing two NCAA committees on the Miami case.
``The NCAA Executive Committee expects the enforcement program to operate within approved procedures and with the highest integrity,'' said Lou Anna K. Simon, the NCAA's executive committee chair and Michigan State president. ``Although we are deeply disappointed in this turn of events, we strongly support the actions President Emmert is taking to address the problem.''
What Emmert wants now is answers about how this ``severe issue of improper conduct.''
``My concern is that the policies and procedures are consistent with our values,'' Emmert said. ``Whether it produces good information or no information, there's no way to cut corners on this. It's a very difficult task, but you don't do things inappropriately.''

A summertime pattern remains well-established across South Florida Monday, carrying more thunderstorm chances with it.
Afternoon storms continue in the forecast for the next few days before tapering back by Wednesday and Thursday.
Monday will be mostly cloudy with afternoon showers and thunderstorms and highs around 89. Tuesday will remain mostly cloudy with highs again in the upper 80s.
Tropical Storm Humberto has formed in the Eastern Atlantic, just south of the Cape Verde Islands. This is the eighth named storm of the season and is not a threat to the U.S. While we have yet to see a hurricane form this season, it's possible Humberto could become a hurricane by Wednesday.

Examines the evolution of the modern Afghan state in the shadow of Britain's imperial presence in South Asia during the first half of the nineteenth century, and challenges the staid assumptions that the Afghans were little more than pawns in a larger Anglo-Russian imperial rivalry known as the 'Great Game'.

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.—Junior Danny Biega and senior Alex Killorn of the Harvard men's hockey team were named to the ECAC Hockey All-League first team and Biega was recognized with the league's Best Defensive Defenseman award Thursday night at the ECAC Hockey awards banquet, held at the Atlantic City Convention Center.
Patrick McNally's third-team selection gave the Crimson three all-league picks. He was also named to the ECAC Hockey All-Rookie Team, along with fellow freshman Steve Michalek. Harvard earned three all-league selections for the first time since 2003-04, placed two players on the first team for the first time since 2002-03 and had two all-rookie honorees for the first time since 1997-98.
Biega, one of three finalists for ECAC Best Defensive Defenseman, was also a finalist for the ECAC Hockey Player of the Year Award. A standout on both ends of the ice, the Montreal native led all defensemen with eight goals and 23 points in league play and was on the ice for just nine even-strength goals scored by Crimson league opponents. He mans the point on the Harvard power-play unit—the top-rated man-advantage group in the country—and led the league with 14 power-play points in ECAC games.
An ECAC second-team pick last year and preseason all-league selection this season, Biega ranks second nationally among defensemen with 1.06 points per game, thanks to his 10 overall goals and 34 total points in 32 games. He leads Harvard with a +12 rating and was a team-high +10 in league play. He and Killorn were both unanimously named to the All-Ivy League first team.
Killorn leads Harvard with 20 goals and 42 points, including 10 goals and 14 assists in 22 league games to rank fifth in ECAC Hockey with 24 league points. The center from Montreal was twice named ECAC Hockey Player of the Week during the season. He ranks 11th nationally with 1.31 points per game and eighth with 0.62 goals per contest.
McNally led ECAC freshman defensemen with 15 points on four goals and 11 assists in league play. That point total tied him for fourth place among all defensemen and fifth among all freshmen. The Glen Head, N.Y., native has five goals and 21 assists for 26 points overall to rank second in the nation among rookie defensemen and seventh among all defensemen with 0.81 points per game.
McNally was also a finalist for ECAC Hockey of the Year, and Crimson coach Ted Donato '91 was a finalist for the Tim Taylor Award given to the ECAC Hockey coach of the year.
Michalek, the youngest goaltender in the nation, has started 22 games in goal for the Crimson, the third-highest total ever by a Crimson rookie. He made 30 or more saves in half of those starts. The Glastonbury, Conn., native started 16 of Harvard's 22 league games, helping lead the Crimson to a third-place ECAC finish with a 2.77 goals-against average and .906 save percentage against league opponents.
The Crimson (12-9-11, 8-5-9 ECAC Hockey), ranked 19th nationally and seeded third in the ECAC Hockey Championship, will meet 13th-ranked, second-seeded Cornell in Friday's league semifinals. The winner will advance to Saturday's final. Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com.
