Product Story
Offices throughout history have revolved around where the work gets done. First the desk, then the support components that keep supplies at hand, light on the surface, digital information coming in. Passage is called a "desking system" because this completely freestanding system uses modular desks as the building blocks for the workspace structure.
Systems capabilities built into elegant freestanding furniture. Blending the advantages of both, Passage is a beautiful, high-tech solution for open spaces and enclosed offices, for individual and team settings.

What's In It For You
The Flexibility of Freestanding
While Passage workstations are fully modular, they are as flexible as freestanding furniture because they don't rely on panels, walls, or other workstations for support. Reconfiguring a workstation doesn't disrupt people working nearby.
Modular components: Desk modules come fully assembled, ready for individual or team use; modules plan without dimensional gain.
Mobile tables: Adjustable height oval, concave, and D-shaped tables.
High-Tech Support
Passage is tuned in to the high-tech needs of today's workplace. Large-capacity data and dependable power delivery is under the work surface and at work surface height, for ease and convenience. Lay-in cabling reduces extra workload and prevents possible damage due to cable threading.
Large cable capacity: The primary cable channel is a continuous, grounded metal barrier that holds up to 123 Category 5e 4-pair UTP cables at a 60 percent fill rate; 96 Category 6 at 60 percent.
Dependable power: The 4-circuit, 8-wire system supports heavy computer use and handles multiple specialized circuits.
Hard-Working Elegance
Passage makes a stylish statement. An extensive color palette lets you create virtually any look you want. And the system lets you eliminate hard edges in favor of a graceful curvilinear design. A number of curved work surface shapes with rounded edges are available and can be complemented by curving arc screens.
Passage components are made of 49% recycled materials and are 63% recyclable at the end of their useful life.

Over the past couple of years I have worked in K-1 and 1-2 multiage classroom settings. I also have three years experience teaching first grade, four years teaching second grade and one PreK year. I have been a K-2 Lead Teacher for five years. I have also been a Core Knowledge Curriculum Coordinator. I currently work as an elementary instructional coach - teaching teachers how to teach!
I feel teaching presentation and style must match the classroom dynamics and age level. Since I work with little ones, I prefer to do a lot of hands-on activities that break concepts down into simple manageable chunks and make learning fun. In my classroom, we get out of our chairs, laugh, sing, dance, work/talk in teams, maintain consistency, and drill the basics.
I have been awarded teacher of the month twice at my charter school and have received Model Classroom status from Reading Renaissance for two years. I have been nominated for a Disney Teacher award and won a Target Teacher Scholarship. But best of all....I get hugs and smiles from my students everyday!
I have a Master's in Curriculum Instruction from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA and Bachelor of Arts in Technical Journalism from Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. I hold professional teaching licenses in Colorado and Wisconsin. I am currently working toward my ESL license.

Berklee and High School Students Teach Music in Kenya, Donate Instruments, Laptops
Tuesday, 28 June 2011
Published in
Press Releases
Be the first to comment!
A group of Berklee College of Music students and alumni, and Newton North and Needham, MA, High School students are using the summer break as an educational opportunity. The students will participate in a cultural exchange program in Kenya (June 25—July 15) through local organization Global Youth Groove (GYG), whose mission is to transform the lives of youth through music, where they will teach, perform, study Swahili, learn about traditional Kenyan music, instruments and dance, and be immersed in Kenyan culture. The program is spearheaded by Berklee staff member Sam Lutomia, co-founder of GYG and co-founder of Acacia in Kenya, a fundraising effort that provides support for girls education. The GYG group will spend two weeks in Kakamega, Western Kenya, teaching music and giving workshops at the Matende Secondary School, founded by Lutomia's father Francis. They plan to bring a full ensemble setup—including donated guitars, bass, violin, alto saxophone, clarinets, drums, and keyboards—on which the students will teach and perform. The students will also give presentations in their fields of expertise. Berklee film scoring major Dave Chapman's demonstration of music production software using desktop gear will give people without access to recording studios the tools to self-produce on computers. Making technology more accessible, the group will bring eight MacBook Pros, donated by the college's IT department, loaded with GarageBand and ProTools. At the end of the trip, the laptops and instruments will be given to a community center in Kakamega, allowing talented local youth to continue developing their skills. Lutomia explains, "Unfortunately, we can't leave the laptops at Matende School because of security. The school is still struggling to buy windows and doors for their classes, which is the case for most public schools in Kenya." They also plan to visit other schools and orphanages in the area and will perform at the Kenya Schools and Colleges National Music Festival in Kakamega, June 29-July 2. GYG includes students from Kenya returning home for the trip, and students from the US making their first trip to Africa. "I am really excited because students from Berklee and local high schools get to come to my country and have a little taste of my culture," says Nairobi native Wambura Mitaru, who studies at Berklee on a full Africa Scholarship. "It allows me to share a part of my life that is close to me—my home. I hope to learn from both worlds and see musicians interacting and having a great time speaking the universal language of music." The group will also spend time in Nairobi meeting with Berklee alumni and other musicians, giving workshops, and performing in concert. After returning, the students will give a public presentation in Boston where they will perform, speak about their experiences, and show a documentary produced from the trip.

A day in the life of Ken Block: Video
Ken Block is back, not with Gymkhana Five but with a video that follows the rally driver and DC Shoe cofounder through a day in Los Angeles.
That day includes some errands, a morning car shoot and some track work for Gymkhana. He does all of this while listening to his own playlist in the Hybrid Function Hoon Vehicle Ford Fiesta.
Block starts at the crack of dawn heading to the Cars and Coffee weekly event in Irvine, Calif. After a few pictures for fans he heads off to the Terrace Caf� in Venice.
Later, he returns to Universal Studios to finish up the Gymkhana Four video, including some practice runs around the fake cityscape and filming of the Sasquatch sequence.
After the studio, Block goes to Willow Springs Raceway to do some testing for the Gymkhana World Tour with pro BMX rider Kelly Bolton.
It's just another tire-smoking, fuel-burning day in the life of Ken Block.

President Barack Obama praised rescuers and volunteers helping clean up after Hurricane Isaac on Monday and offered federal help to beef up flood protection in the stricken area.
Obama viewed storm damage in St. John the Baptist Parish, west of New Orleans, which suffered extensive flooding after Isaac struck the northern Gulf Coast last week. Thousands of residents were driven from their homes when the storm drove water over the banks of Lake Pontchartrain, but there were no fatalities in the parish.
"I want to commend everybody who's here for the excellent work they've done in making sure that lives were saved -- that although there was tremendous property damage, that people were in a position to get out quickly," Obama told reporters after viewing the damage Monday afternoon.
He praised authorities who carried out rescues despite their own losses and the "resilient" people of Louisiana and Mississippi, many of whom still face the threat of flooding.
"We are going to make sure at the federal level, we are getting on the case very quickly about figuring out what exactly happened here, what can we do to make sure that it doesn't happen again and expediting some of the decisions that may need to be made to make sure we've got the infrastructure to protect people's properly and protect people's lives," Obama said.
Authorities have blamed eight U.S. deaths on Isaac, six of them in Louisiana. The latest came Monday, when a 90-year-old man was found dead in his home in suburban New Orleans, Jefferson Parish Coroner Gerry Cvitanovich said.
The home was equipped with air conditioning, but the system didn't work with the electricity out, Cvitanovich said. Temperatures in the area were in the low 90s on Monday.
"It's the very young and very old and chronically ill people that are affected," he said. "The folks in my office are urging everyone to please check on family and get them in air conditioning or get them to a shelter."
Isaac struck the Gulf Coast south of New Orleans as a Category 1 hurricane early Wednesday, the seventh anniversary of the devastating Hurricane Katrina. It had already killed 19 people in the Caribbean nation of Haiti, where it struck before moving into the Gulf of Mexico.
The storm posed the first real test to New Orleans since a $14.5 billion federal effort to reconstruct the city's flood control system after it failed during Katrina in 2005. Katrina killed nearly 1,800 people, most when the storm overwhelmed the levee system and flooded the city.

Nice try, but world aids day was a total bomb!speaking not as a politician, but as something who's worked in a gay mens health service, and who wore his red ribbon proubly, World Aids Day recieved almost no advertising before the day, which had no benefit on getting people to notice it.To add more to this shamble, almost none of the major highstreet stores had ribbons on sale, all but Virgin megastore, no one was out in the streets promoting world aids day.To add insult, on the day itself, almost none of the t.v presenters wore a red ribbon on the day, on any of the channels. The one place you expected to see someone having a ribbon for the thousends of aids sufferers in the world, and not even on t.v was it made clear the importance.So don't convice anyone here that it made a difference when it clearly did not!

Alta URL has been attempting to expand and we are proud to enter into a partnership with a divorce lawyer singapore based and wholly trustworthy. Now singapore law can be confusing at times given the sheer number of papers to file and procedures that must be observed. Affidavits by the score are required simply to facilitate trust!
Divorce lawyers in Singapore are required to have extremely high standards and expertise as Singaporeans are accustomed to having nothing but the best. Lawyers typically spend up to ten years studying in preparation for entry into the field of litigation and even longer fighting small time cases to build experience.
Divorce in Singapore is a tricky business to get right because of all the papers and legal hoops that must be jumped through. On average, it takes up to 6 months and $5000 for a single divorce to go through successfully. Having said that, we feel we are fully up to the challenge. We will keep you posted!

Framing A Bathroom Mirror
This is the first mirror I've added trim around, and was a bit (very) nervous about how it would all turn out. The hardest part was making sure I had accurate measurements, before heading off to Home Depot to buy strips of primed MDF baseboard to be cut down to size. (Tip: double check the measurements of the cut pieces before leaving the store...just in case!)
Once home I laid out the cut lengths on the kitchen island. I was going to work on this project after the kids went to bed and had no desire to be stuck in the garage into the late night hours!
Earlier, on a trip to my local Sherwin Williams store, I got these recommendations to help the project go smoothly. X-I-M, a paint extender to help minimize brush strokes while painting, and their new Handy Paint Pail. I was skeptical about the pail, but the salesman talked me into giving it a try. It has a handle, removable liner and a magnetic brush holder providing a handy place to set the brush while working. I have to say, it really was a help and certainly tops the random plastic containers I've used in the past. (And no, I'm not getting paid to write any of this!)
With all my materials on hand, the painting began. As opposed to the chalkboard frames, which I painted after they were built, here I decided to paint the pieces first. I thought this approach would be easier than trying to paint the frame once it was in place around the mirror.
First the back sides of the baseboards were painted. A thin sliver of the back will be reflected in the mirror, so they definitely needed to be painted.
After the paint dried the strips were turned over and the fronts painted. The paint extender was very helpful in minimizing the appearance of brush strokes.
After the paint dried an extra fine sanding pad was used to sand away a few paint drips and areas that were a little rough.
The next step was to glue the three pieces, which form the top of the frame, together with extra strength wood glue.
Later in the day, after the glue dried, a bead of caulk was run down the two joints...
and smoothed out....then more drying time. (Lots of periods of drying time in this project!)
An hour later a quick coat of paint was brushed over the caulk.
And while I was at it, a second coat of paint was applied to all the pieces.
After more drying time, the frame was then installed around the mirror using Liquid Nails-Paneling. This is a wood molding adhesive that claims to create a strong instant hold. Trusting this information several dollops were applied down the length of the wall above the mirror.
The top of the frame was positioned in place over the adhesive. After checking to make sure the ends were flush with the mirror on each side, it was taped into place. I admit I did stand there holding and pushing it into place for a few minutes before stepping away. I had visions of it crashing down, damaging walls on its way down to the vanity to crack a sink or two. Luckily that didn't happen as the product lived up to its promise.
Next the same steps were taken to attach the side pieces and finally the bottom strip.
DIY Challenge: hold and apply adhesive with a caulk gun using your right hand while taking a clear picture with your left, and you must be right handed.
The last steps were to caulk a couple joints...
and touch up the areas with paint.
You've basically seen the finished result, but I'll post a few shots tomorrow with all the pretty and colorful accessories in place. I am seriously excited about how well this turned out and realizing with this and the chalkboard project "under my belt" I can move on to some other fun projects using similar products...like crown molding? The rooms of my house are going through my head as I write, which room do I start with?!

As always, your project turned out perfectly! I have had carpenters frame out several mirrors for clients and it really transforms the bathroom. The only thing they did differently was to rout out a cut out in the back to lay over the mirror, but yours works just as well. Thanks for instructing everyone to paint the back....very important and not a step to be missed. Great tutorial, Janelle, and a wonderful result!

Totally love it!!!! My husband will kill me for wanting to start yet another project. Anyway-how would you compare ease and cost of DIY framing mirror vs. using mirror mate? Thanks so much. p.s. I am addicted to your blog. I check every morning before I leave for work!

beautiful janell! I'm seriously contemplating trying this in my guest bath! you make it all look so easy...
- August 5, 2010 at 5:42 AM
- Janell @ Isabella and Max said...
The total cost was well under $100 for all the supplies, including paint, glue, caulk, extender and mdf...so definitely less than Mirror Mate.
With that product you can get a lot of fabulous finishes, which you could replicate yourself I guess. It just depends on the look you are going for. This was more work, I thought Mirror Mate was a pretty easy install.
Thanks for asking! Janell - August 5, 2010 at 5:46 AM

Another thing to add to my "to do" list! I LOVE this, Janell! And your doing this to mimic the trim in your house right? That means you have some FAB trim!

I have been wanting to do something just like this with our master bathroom mirror, and now that I've seen you do it, I'm going to give it a go! Looks fantastic!!!
- August 5, 2010 at 5:53 AM
- Janell @ Isabella and Max said...
Yes Lakeitha! Obviously a frame could also be made with four pieces and mitered corners...I'm afraid of mitered corners, but if I am going to try crown molding I will have to get over it!
Also, good point Sally J, depending on how a mirror is attached to the wall the pieces may require routing. Mine did not. The mirror was attached with two clips at the top, which I removed after adding a bit of construction glue behind the mirror at the top edge. - August 5, 2010 at 5:53 AM

I've always wanted to try this so thanks for the tutorial. And, I love those little paint pails--definitely worth the extra few dollars.
- August 5, 2010 at 6:30 AM
- Laurel @ Ducks in a Row said...
My mirrors have the clips, also, and I've always wondered how I could do this with the clips - so you just removed them and glued the mirror to the wall?
- August 5, 2010 at 6:40 AM
- Janell @ Isabella and Max said...
Laurel, yes...the mirror had two of those little glass clips attached with a screw at the top of the mirror. I unscrewed them just enough to be able to pull out the mirror from the wall to "inject" some of the adhesive back behind the mirror. The mirror also sits in a clip running the length of the bottom of the mirror. I just attached the wood over this clip (because it was flush with the tile and mirror) and positioned the bottom length of trim over the tile, clip and a bit of mirror. I hope this answers your question, I should have included this in the post. I may do a follow up! Janell

Janell, I really love this method of framing a mirror too. I've done one similar with corner blocks & reeded trim, but this one is really pretty and looks easy as well, using primed MDF. Nice job, it looks beautiful!
- August 5, 2010 at 8:22 AM
- michiganhome said...
As always, Janell, you've done a very thorough and "professional" job. I was going to ask the same question as Michele about the comparison to Mirror Mate. But despite the extra work, another benefit here, (besides the cost savings and the satisfaction of having done it yourself), is that you've been able to customize the style to match your trim. I'm guessing Mirror Mate doesn't have something that looks like this! Can't wait to see the finishing touches tomorrow...

Love that you matched it to the existing mouldings throughout your home. It's crazy, but the frame really does make it look bigger.
- August 5, 2010 at 10:44 AM
- Janell @ Isabella and Max said...
I know, I had the same reaction! This also happened when I framed the mirror in my master bath with a frame from Mirror Mate, suddenly the mirror had presence and looked much larger!

- Susie @ Maddie's Nest said...
Inspirational as usual....I don't know if I could have done this....and I for some reason thought the mirror would have to come down....you ALMOST made it look easy. Definitely makes a huge difference and gives the custom look that is lacking in builder bathrooms these days!

I think this will be our next project. great job!
- August 5, 2010 at 9:11 PM
- Janell @ Isabella and Max said...
One suggestion ~ consider attaching the bottom trim piece first, let it dry and then proceed to the sides and top. This approach would provide a strong base/foundation on which the sides and top could rest, while they dry.
Just a thought upon reflecting on the project and what I might do differently next time!
Janell - August 5, 2010 at 9:21 PM
- Rebecca said...
I have been contemplating doing this project for both of my bathrooms. I have seen several people to the mitred corners, but they scare me as well. I need to get over the fear at some point though.
I have one question for in regards to mdf sizes you used. What is the depth of the pieces you used? Are the pieces that are installed directly on the mirror the same depth as the wide center piece that is installed directly to the sheet rock? Does this make sense?
Beautiful job and keep up the great blogging.
www.mypaintedperfection.blogspot.com - August 6, 2010 at 8:02 AM
- Janell @ Isabella and Max said...
Yes it does make sense. All the pieces are 5/8" thick.
I definitely need to do a follow up post and talk about removing the 2 clips at the top of the mirror and applying adhesive behind the mirror and the fact I added a 1/4" thick "block" on the back of the top frame piece along its top edge. This allowed this piece of the frame to be attached on the same "plane" as the side pieces applied directly to the mirror and the bottom piece applied directly to the tile.
Sometimes I am not sure how detailed to get in a tutorial, they could easily become books! But great question, thanks!! - August 6, 2010 at 8:24 AM
- Jane Ellen said...
it seems like the top piece and bottom piece would set back farther than the side pieces that are places on the mirror....did this not create a problem?
jane - August 8, 2010 at 12:58 PM
- Janell @ Isabella and Max said...
Hi Jane Ellen,
Great question...the tile below the mirror is virtually flush with the mirror surface and the bottom piece extends over the mirror about an inch, the top frame piece extends down over the mirror about two inches, so all the trim pieces do end up flush. The only thing I did not mention in the post, but talked about in the comments, is a couple 1/4" thick block pieces were placed behind the top trim piece at the top edge to help "hold out" the part of the trim that was attached to wall rather than the mirror.
Does that answer your question? I am going to do a follow up post covering all the questions I was asked and their answers...and as I said in another comment, each mirror will present its unique set of problems to work out for a successful result.
Thanks for asking! Janell - August 8, 2010 at 1:14 PM

Yes, I did! The clear seeded glass made a big difference. I also used round clear bulb, which are kind of retro looking. I found both at Home Depot...

VIENNA — If the Logan High School softball team is going to advance to Thursday's Class AAA state championship game they are going to have to do it the hard way.
The Lady Cats dropped its state tourney opener to Parkersburg South, 8-3, on Wednesday afternoon at Jackson Memorial Park in Vienna.
Logan, making its fourth straight trip to the state tournament but looking for its first state title since 2006, dropped to 27-6 on the season and fell into the loser's bracket.
Parkersburg South, a red-hot team late in the season, improved to 24-11 and moved into the winner's bracket. The Patriots gained a measure of revenge on Logan, a team which hammered South 10-2 earlier in the season in the Best of the Best Tournament at Buffalo.
With Wednesday's state tourney win, Parkersburg South won for the 11th time in its last 12 games.
Logan coach Randy Robinette had said earlier in the week the key for his team was to go 2-0 in the first day of the state tourney, which is in a double-elimination format.
With the loss, that's not going to happen.
Instead, the defeat dropped Logan into an elimination game on Wednesday night against Robert C. Byrd, which lost its state tourney opener on Wednesday morning to John Marshall, 10-3. RCB fell to 22-14, while John Marshall improved to 33-3. JMHS split with Logan in last year's state tourney.
In the Logan-Parkersburg South game, Coach Jennifer Null's Patriots wasted little time in getting on the board by plating four runs off Logan starter Morgan Aguirre in the bottom of the first inning to lead 4-0.
South tacked on two more in the third and one in the fourth to make it a 7-0 ballgame.
Logan got back into the game in the top of the fifth as senior catcher Katie Chryssofos drilled a three-run homer to right center off South starter CeCe Bailey to make it a 7-3 game. For Chryssofos, it was her 11th home run of the season and her 33rd in her last three years with the Lady Cats.
But then in the sixth, the Patriots added an insurance run to push the margin to 8-3.
Bailey then got Logan out in order in the top of the seventh to ice the win. She pitched all seven innings and allowed three runs and five hits with two strikeouts and two walks.
Aguirre took the loss as the senior hurler allowed eight runs and nine hits with two strikeouts, two walks and one hit batter in a six-inning worksheet.
To Aguirre's defense, the Logan defense behind her was suspect at best as Logan committed four errors. Parkersburg South had two for the game.
The Patriots scored all four runs in the bottom of the first inning with two outs. Bailey got it started by helping her own cause with a two-run double to right center to put South ahead for good 2-0.
Alex West then followed with an RBI double to right center to increase the lead to 3-0.
No. 9 hitter Jenna Daugherty then finished off the scoring by executing a successful squeeze bunt with the bases loaded to put Parkersburg South on top 4-0.
The Lady Cats tried to rally in the top of the second as Aguirre singled and Shana Hall reached with a bunt single to put runners at first and second with no out.
Antonia Hill then sacrificed both over into scoring position with a nice bunt. Bailey then walked Sheby Hale to load up the bases with two out but got leadoff hitter Rachelle Toppings to pop out to second to kill the rally.
Parkersburg South then made it 6-0 in the third as Morgan Trippett laced a two-run single to right center.
In the fourth, the Patriots added another to make it 7-0 with shortstop Taylor Wittekind's solo homer to center over the 210-foot sign.
Logan came back in the top of the fifth with the three-run shot by Chryssofos but South was able to score another in the sixth as leadoff batter Katelynn Hamilton singled and later came around on Kristen Hamilton's bunt and errant throw to third by Logan.
West Daughterty were each 2-for-3 with an RBI for South.
Rachelle Toppings and Lara Sedlock had singles for Logan. Both had their hits in the fifth prior to the blast by Chryssofos.
Logan and Parkersburg South last met in the 2001 Class AAA state tourney at Summersville with the Lady Cats defeating the Patriots 2-1 in the state championship game.
Logan won back-to-back 3A state crowns in 2001 and 2002. First-year assistant coach Lindsay Noe was the starting catcher on both squads.
The Lady Cats also took state titles in 1986 and 2006 — the latter when Logan had a brief stint as a Double-A school.

We purchased a Amana central air conditioning unit 10 years ago. We live in CO. and only use it two months out of the year. After the first year we began having problems - including many electrical components, the fan needing to be replaced and adding freon numerous times. Now, the compressor went out and we need to either replace it which is 2K or purchase a new unit. I called the compliance center which basically said there was nothing they could do. If you want to make a large investment only to continue to pay your HVAC person a few hundred every year to then have to purchase another unit after 10 years- AMANA/Goodman is your company! Save your money and time- purchase a different make

"Not Sure WHat to do with this thing"
I purchased an Amana 3-1/2 ton system in September of 2008. Since that time, the contractor has gone out of business. The contractor that took over his customers (franchise) has been out 5 times this summer alone for various issues (not cooling, freezing, supposedly dirty compressor). It's hot here in Oklahoma and the system I purchased I believe is a piece of crap, that I seem to be stuck with. If a company offers you a no lemon guarantee on these units, run!!!!!

"Will never buy Amana again"
We bought a new house with 2-5 ton Amana a/c 14 seer units. Supposedly, their best units. We closed in January 2007 and have had nothing but expensive trouble with the units. One entire unit has been replaced and rebuilt (compressor, fan motor, cooling vans, etc.) and now we are starting to have trouble with the other unit with failed cooling lines to the compressor. The Amana scam is that warranty is for replacement parts only and you get stuck with all the labor and coolant recharge costs. The unit that had the cooling vane replaced cost us almost a $1000 in labor, coolant and testing. The unit today with the failed line will cost us about $570 to replace a warranty part that failed. This set-up is criminal! What happened to building a quality product and standing behind it?

"ammana exterior air conditioner condenser package"
Base of the exterior cabinet is rusting away in chunks. Contacted Amana and sent them photos. Their determination is caused by salt water corrosion as we are next to a canal. The picture I sent showed a pipe mast that telescopes and is all rusty. That mast is 30 yrs old and was used and rusty when I put it up but that's their excuse. My question is why are the 10,000 competitive units not rusting out. Those are mounted the same way next to the salt water canals. The local dealer/installer that put it in originally says it is from a water softener. I have lived in this house since 1988 and we do not have a water softener. You are faking to back out of the responsibility for inferior steel in the units fabrication.

Every summer, it's the same thing. Top unit goes out. Then 1 week later, bottom unit goes out. I have replaced the capacitor every other year. Recharged the system every other year.

This thing is horrible! I paid $7,000 for new unit last summer. It made tremendous banging sounds when it switched on and off and ran very loudly. They replaced the whole thing within the first month, and this unit does exactly the same thing. It now appears to have fully died, as it is doing nothing in the Memphis heat, not coming on at all. Lemon, Lemon, Lemon!

I am very disappointed with our Amana heating and air conditioner. We have 2 units; 1 for the downstairs and 1 for the upstairs. We have had Amana 3.5 years now. We have had to replace the coils every year since our home was built. The bottom units always fails at the beginning of summer and the 2nd units usually goes about about a week later. When they are working, they cool all of the rooms except the master bedroom and bath. We are now considering getting rid of these 2 lemons.

"poor unit"
This is not a central air but I bought a 8000btu room air conditioner 3years ago at Boscov. Last year, the blower stopped working. This is poor quality and a waste of money.

Amana rce prestige 14 air conditioner LEMON! LEMON! LEMON! LEMON! We have spent close to $1000 in service tickets on this piece of crap since being installed. My AC installer stated this unit has been a major problem and Amana/Maytag is not working with the installers. WARRANTY means nothing! We still have to pay for the service ticket on the labor to replace the warranty part. It has had 6 major components replaced. Today, we are replacing a part that was replaced less than two years ago. AMANA - you are FIRED - no more dishwashers, dryers, washers from this family of 5. Remember, the rules of 20 x 5 = 100 lost customers!

Afraid to admit but I am afraid to fly
Yes I have said it I am so afraid to fly. I try and try to tell myself it will all be fine. But I am such a control freak it doesnt work. Does anyone have any comforting words that I can think of so I dont think the worse.
Afraid to admit but I am afraid to fly
Well, not really comforting words but I understand because Im terrified of flying, to the point where I dont sleep 2-3 nights before
What helps is to just meditate, do yoga, take some deep breaths and focus on the wonderul time we will have when we reach our destination

I work with someone who hates flying, he normally takes relaxing medication before he gets on the flight. He finds this really helps him.

Re: Afraid to admit but I am afraid to fly
My DW was the same way. Terrified of the thought of flying. But when her son said he was getting married in Las Vegas, she knew she had to do something as we were going.
So, she researched around the web and found this free online course setup by an airline captain. The website doesn't look that hot but the course materials are first rate. (He does offer a DVD for sale but you don't have to buy it. The course materials are right on his site and completely free.)
I was so impressed with the results from this course that I did something I never do. I wrote a lengthy email to Captain Stacey Chance (who provides the course) extolling the virtues of his course. Here's the verbatim text of what I said to him:
Many, many thanks!
My wife and I were invited to travel to Las Vegas from our home here in the Atlanta area for her son's wedding. While I used to fly extensively, my wife had only been on an aircraft once before and it terrified her to death. But, seeing as it was her son's wedding, she was bound and determined that we should go. She spent many hours working through your course and your book. She quizzed me endlessly on what things would happen, what she'd hear, how it would feel. When the time came to purchase tickets, we opted for Business Class just so that she wouldn't feel crowded and so it wouldn't create another bit of anxiety for her. We also had our doctor prescribe a couple of "happy pills" for her just in case.
Well, the big day arrived and we showed up at ATL ready to go. She was remarkably calm. So, bags checked, we manage to successfully negotiate the TSA adventure and make our way onto the concourse. On the way, we stop to get her a drink so she can partake of a bit of the chemistry our doctor provided for her. The flight is called and we board. Just a wee bit of trepidation at this point. I show her where we're sitting, point out the video games in the cockpit to her (the cockpit door was still open at this point). I called them video games for her benefit as she has no clue what a VSI, HSI, or EFIS display is. Anyway, I digress. I then ask her if she'd like the aisle or the window. She chooses the aisle. She's a bit more nervous now that it's real. We get situated and belted into our seats as the flight attendants provide the requisite pre-flight refreshments.
Thump. The doors close. The safety briefing starts on the video screens, and we feel the slight jerk as we start push back. She's remarkably calm now. Not at all what I had expected. As we push back, she hears a noise and I have to explain to her that it's just the engines spooling up. Ok, she's happy with that. Now, onto the taxiway and join the traffic jam headed for the active. We're number 3. A few moments later, we turn onto the active, line up, and then it's time to go. The whole time she's sitting there calmly. We accelerate past V1, V2, then VR and just like that we're airborne. Gear up. Flaps coming up. I look over at her and she's sitting there with this angelic smile on her face. She's actually enjoying this!
We climb out smoothly from ATL on our way to LAS and as we climb, she's leaning over me so she can see out the window better. Once we get to cruise altitude and get settled down, she makes a quick trip to the bathroom and, as she comes back to her seat, asks me if we can trade. Can she have the window? Of course, I agree and she settles into the window seat and, with a twinkle in her eye and wonder in her voice, starts pointing out all the interesting things she's seeing. This is exactly what I had hoped for! Between you and me, I had chosen our seats for this flight leg and had taken the starboard side of the aircraft hoping that 1) she'd want the window seat and 2) the weather would be clear enough for her to see some things. The Grand Canyon springs right to mind. I wasn't disappointed. Sure enough, we're soon passing over farms (she liked the circular crop plantings), and then the Grand Canyon comes into view. She's beyond fascinated. Shortly thereafter, we begin our descent into LAS and pass over Lake Mead. Again she's fascinated that she can see the boats as they traverse the lake.
Landing is a smooth non-event and, as we deplane, she hugs my arm, declares that our flight was indeed fun for her, and that she doesn't believe that she'll need her other happy pill for the trip back home. And indeed she doesn't. The trip home is as smooth and uneventful as the trip out. And she's now a convert to flying.
In large part, her success with this is attributable to your program. She's happy. I'm happy. And I thank you for that.
Tom (... maybe it could help you too!)
Re: Afraid to admit but I am afraid to fly
Tom that truly sounds like a remarkable course. Glad that it helped your wife get over her fears. I've been flying now for so many years (I started as a child) that it no longer concerns me. We were on one of the first flights out of DC after 9/11 and never felt safer. Donna doesn't like to fly but will if she has too.

How can footfall and transport be used innovatively to generate income and improve environmental sustainability in the City?
The Challenge 4 team would like to say heartfelt thanks for all the fantastic contributions that were received on this Challenge. We knew from the wide and varied responses that whittling down the ideas for our first workshop, held last Thursday would be a challenge in itself. The ideas which were initially shortlisted down to 10 led to fabulous presentations from the idea generators themselves and a real chance for us to start visualising some of these ideas in and around the City!
If choosing a shortlist of 10 ideas was difficult, then narrowing these down even further has become near on impossible. So now we need your help! Of our 10 shortlisted ideas we would like you to vote for your top 3. You will find further information on the 10 below, which we hope will give you a further insight into what the ideas are about and how they will work.
The closing date for the vote is Friday 6th April.
Once the closing date has been reached and the votes have been counted, the top 3 will then be taken forward for further consideration, with the aim of bringing these ideas and solutions to life. A workshop will be held to refine the preferred solutions and explore any possible challenges that may prevent the solutions development. With the help of the original idea generator, and those interested parties who can assist us, we hope to implement the 'winning' solutions in the next stage of this exciting journey.
The Shortlisted Ideas
Based on an initial evaluation of all submitted solutions the following 10 solutions were shortlisted (for more details on the shortlisting process visit the Challenge 4 workshop presentation attached).
To take the challenge to the next phase of development (detailed project feasibility, deliverability and resources needed), we need you to vote for your top 3 solutions to challenge 4.
Here are the 'top 10' ideas for you to choose from:
1. Sponsor a street
This solution is about increasing the number of pedestrainised streets in York and paying for it through sponsorship opportunities – similar to sponsored roundabouts. The pedestrianisation of a street is paid for by sponsorship from individuals, tourists and local businesses with some visual recognition of this contribution – i.e. paving slab with names on. It would be supported by a website.
Pros: Promotes ownership of a street; Could support the financing of more pedestrian streets in York;
Cons: Possible maintenance costs of the scheme after the initial work is carried out; Vandalism;
2. Energy generating pavements
This solution identifies innovative technology that can capture and generate renewable energy from the motion of walking in busy areas. The technology, embedded in pavements, can harness energy as you walk over it walk to generate electricity to light up local street lights, pavement lights and even information boards – perhaps with data that makes energy and environmental sustainability more visible. It can even save on lighting bills. In Parliament Street alone footfall was 8.4 million in 2011 – think of all that wasted energy we could use.
Pros: Powerful and visual education tool to highlight the need for renewable energy sources in a fun way with added health benefits; Trial-able, and if successful could link to planned regeneration works and new developments across the city;
Cons: Maintenance costs; How long will they still work for;
3. Cycle counters and Air Pollution real time displays
This solution is about visually highlighting information to demonstrate the impact of 'journeys' in the City. The proposal contained two ideas, signs to show many people cycle in the city, and signs to show the air quality at certain points in the City (using green if below 30 mgm3, amber if 30-40 mgm3 and red if over 40 mgm3, the EU limit). These are not currently instantly visible across the city and such displays will raise awareness of these important environmental sustainability issues and encourage people to take action.
Pros: Powerful, visual and positive educational tool; Trial-able way of changing behaviours through positive 'nudges' such as celebrating the number of cyclists in York or air quality improvements;
Cons: Lots of signs can be confusing; Advertising poor air quality could have a negative impact on the city and local businesses;
4. Energy generating exercise bikes
This solution is about using people to sit on exercise bikes and generate electricity that could generate income and help improve health across the city. The solution could also utilise an existing asset (see challenge 1) and provide a lower cost alternative to private gym memberships.
Pros: Straightforward, energetic, good for all, cheaper to use than sports centres and with a social aspect; Pilot-able in energy bikes but could be applied to libraries, schools, internet cafe and to power laptops / other electronic devices;
Cons: Not sure people would be motivated to use it and motivated to change behaviour; Ethics of using people as power;
5. Open Data Sharing
This solution is about a website to collate and publicly make available detailed information on transport, air quality and carbon emissions across the city so that we can use this data to highlight, target and solve issues. It can also be used identify cost effective improvements to change local behaviours across the city.
Pros: Data is good in order to understand a problem and solve issues; Like the web site idea as a tool for educating people on environmental issues (could link with solution 1 - counters and displays above);
Cons: Difficult to coordinate; Management of the site and data quality;
6. Low emission Mini-Bus fleet for schools and community groups
This solution reflects a current problem for schools, which have to sometimes use many private cars or old, highly inefficient, polluting vehicles to transport children on field trips and visits. The idea is to have a low emission minibus that could be hired (for a charged) to ensure school travel is easier for teachers and parents and it is environmentally friendly. As there is a charge, the scheme may create revenue to support itself and to be financially sustainable. When schools do not need it, it could also be offered to communities for use.
Pros: Council could operate as a company enterprise and could centrally manage this and the maintenance; Sharing a bus is a good thing economically and will save schools money;
Cons: Competition and pressure with private firms; Cost;
7. Road Trains
This solution relates to an environmentally friendly road train system linking the city's major attractions and key services such as the rail station. The modern, lightweight road train, inspired by the NRM's road train, would be powered by electricity or other sustainable fuel and be a fun and practical service for residents, tourists and people with limited mobility to use. The idea suggested could be branded the Little Green Train and it would offer an enjoyable and people-friendly alternative to the car/large buses, capitalise on York's railway history and acumen and has the potential to deliver an transport solution that would be economically and environmentally sustainable.
Pros: Keep big buses out of the city; Road train (perhaps entitled Little green trains) – is very appropriate to York. York is a railway city and this is a fun way for people to get around. It could create a tourism brand and is suitable for the small narrow streets in York;
Cons: The train idea which will mix with traffic will affect traffic flows and speeds in the city; Would need to cover costs;
8. Digital Display signs
Similar to idea 3 (above), this solution is based on the use of 'smart signage' to influence the behaviour of the City's residents. Information that could be displayed for this purpose at various locations across our transport network includes vehicle counters (by type), countdowns to traffic light changes, journey times and alternatives, and 'promotional' messages for more environmentally friendly transportation.
Pros: Powerful , visual and positive educational tool; Trial-able way of changing behaviours through positive 'nudges' such as promoting quicker transport methods/routes.
Cons: Lots of signs can be confusing; Advertising congestion levels could have a negative impact on the city and local businesses;
9. Free City Centre Shuttle Bus
A frequent, free, low emission bus service linking the main rail station, car parks, shopping areas, businesses, hotels, York Hospital and any other appropriate and notable city locations. Cities such as Manchester, Bradford & Cardiff already use a version of this solution which would include low floors and easy access for wheelchairs, pushchairs etc.
Pros: Free travel throughout the City Centre area; Reduction in city centre congestion if becoming a preferred method of transport.
Cons: Costs to run; Negative impact on current bus provider(s);
10. Smart Parking Tickets
The introduction of 'smart' parking tickets which would be used to gather user information such as postcode travelled from, reason for visit and number of passengers. Along with derived data such as arrival & departures times the information can then be used to optimise car parking provision, predict parking revenues and predict traffic patterns.
Pros: Easy method of capturing data; Increased intelligence to be used when making traffic/city centre policies.
Cons: Increase in time to obtain parking tickets for customers; Perceived 'big-brother' intrusion.

(Based on a scoring system of 1st choice = 3pts, 3rd choice = 1pt)
Our commitment was to pursue the development of the top 3 ideas, as voted for by the public. The Challenge Team will now work on investigating further into the feasibility of each idea and developing a business case. This will aim to outline options surrounding each solution (whilst remianing as close to the original proposal as possible) and the associated financial and resource implications.This will be done over the coming weeks. The team will work closely with Council experts from relevant departments and any other key stakeholders in the development of these business cases. It is envisaged that once these have been completed the business cases will be made public and feedback and consultation on the implementation of the solutions will be sought. Please keep checking the GeniUS! web platform for further updates.
Once again, thanks to all those involved so far.

There are spaces in communities that are safe and welcoming, that are free and open to everyone. Spaces where communities can come together, spaces that are trusted by the public. They have free wifi and free internet access
These are called public libraries and we have 15 of them in York, and 1 on wheels that travels around.
They all have trained staff who support people accessing information and services in life-critical areas such as careers and job seeking; health;…

Pruning the forum database.
I can't install any OS to VB. I upgraded to 4.1.20 (Non-OSE) thinking that might help but no luck. The biggest problem describing this is each different OS doesn't install for a different reason. The first two OSes aren't supported by this forum but I think the problem is VB so I'm posting here.Gnome MMXII: Live CD (using Virtual CD from ISO on HD) worked fine but when I clicked "install" the installer opened for a few seconds then closed if I tried from Desktop. If I tried from boot menu it just booted into the live CD.Gnome Zen: Thinking the Gnome MMXII download was bad I tried Gnome Zen (using Virtual CD from ISO on HD). This time the installer started but froze and everything went to black. In one attempt it actually froze the whole computer.Latest Minime: Mouse doesn't work. When I click anything the icon clicked doesn't open and I loose the cursor. I have to click Host+I twice to get it back. MiniMe installed using Virtual CD.Just for kicks I tried a three year old Live CD of Minime and it wouldn't even boot.Host OS for VB is PCLOS KDE fully updated. I am using the non-OSE version of VB.
Try PC --> More Applications --> Emulators --> Get Oracle VM VirtualBox - VirtualBox Installer.
Quote from: Old-Polack on August 30, 2012, 09:53:46 PMTry PC --> More Applications --> Emulators --> Get Oracle VM VirtualBox - VirtualBox Installer. And that is how I got here. See the thread below this one. http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,108602.0.html
Host machine has 2 GB of memory and I have never had any problem installing an OS before. Just suddenly started on my old install of VM so I wiped everything and did the fresh install. Honestly it is such a weird problem I didn't expect a solution but wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something obvious. For now I'm just going to mark this answered. Will try Memtest and if okay then the OSE version. Thanks for your replies.
