How often have you heard decorators say
to "picture" or "envision" some
idea or design they have in mind? Sometimes, if you are lucky, you might
even get a small swatch of fabric and a paint chip so you can "imagine" what
your window treatments will look like.
However, this is
no longer your only option. Our "Virtual
Room Designer" tool allows you to design your drapery or curtains, valances,
and hardware in the comfort of your own home. You can recreate your
Living Room, Dining Room, and Bedroom décor in just a few moments
by selecting the wall color, flooring type and color, and furniture.
Then mix and match any stunning drape and valance style, texture, and
color option to see exactly what the window treatments will look like
in your home. You too can become your own decorator and enjoy it. Creative
and ingenious design for your window treatments is an easy click away.
Direct Drapes'™ Virtual Room Designer has
made ordering quicker and easier. After choosing from the many styles
of drapery and curtains available
in the Virtual Room Designer,
our vast inventory of fabrics can be assessed in a variety of different
décors. You
even have the ability to match the décor
to your own home by choosing from the most popular wall colors, flooring
and furnishings on the market. With one simple click of the Buy Now
button, you can place your order online, which will typically
ship to your home in a few weeks depending on the season. This significantly reduces
the delivery time when compared to ordering from
large home improvement centers and retailers. You won't find a company
online that will manufacture custom size, made-to-measure drapery,
curtains and valances any faster making us your choice to help finish
those home improvement projects in time for the Holidays.
We deliver
high quality drapery, valances,
curtains and rods
that no one else can match. By purchasing drapery and curtains directly
from our factory, you can typically save 50-80% off most standard
retail prices. How can we do it? By eliminating the middlepersons we
can then pass the savings on to you. Try our Virtual Room
Designer today!

Biological engineering
Channel | updated December 03, 2014
Advances in basic biology at the molecular and cellular levels during recent decades have dramatically increased the foundational information available on mechanistic underpinnings of biological systems. Indeed, the genomics revolution has accelerated the pace at which reductionist data is being generated. It is widely agreed that a crucial challenge for the coming decades is how to integrate information from the genomic level to higher levels of system organization, for both fundamental scientific understanding and development of innovative biotechnologies. Engineering disciplines are predicated on the complementary principles of analysis and synthesis, combining to elucidate quantitative "design principles" for the dependence of system behavior on component properties. The "measurement, modeling, and manipulation" approach that has characterized engineering disciplines based on the sciences of physics and chemistry is now finding the molecular and cellular life sciences accessible and amenable as well. Thus, a new discipline of biological engineering is emerging, directed toward analysis of biological systems in terms of key component properties and consequently toward synthesis of technologies that can beneficially modify and control such systems for societal benefit across many, diverse application areas including human and environmental health.

DUBAI, U.A.E., 1st December 2012: Emirates' A380 destination list has flown past 20 today, with Singapore and Moscow joining the airline's double-decker network.
With the world's largest fleet of A380 aircraft, at 27 and another four to be delivered up to the end of 2012, Emirates continues to set the pace for A380 deployment. In the four years since the A380 has been in operation over 11.5 million passengers have flown on the aircraft, covering 169 million kilometres.
"Singapore and Moscow are both strategically important routes for Emirates," said Tim Clark, President Emirates Airline. "Deploying larger capacity aircraft, such as the A380, is central to helping us meet growing passenger demand in these markets.
"The Emirates A380 continues to peak customer interest. Setting a new standard for aviation both in terms of customer comfort and environmental efficiency, the Emirates A380 continues to deliver strong load factors for us wherever it flies," added Mr. Clark.
Emirates' inaugural A380 service to Domodedovo International Airport in Moscow marks the first time a commercial A380 flight has touched down in the city reinforcing the airline's long-term commitment to Russia. In addition to the launch of the A380 to Moscow, Emirates will also upgrade its daily St. Petersburg service, launching a Boeing 777-300 on the route today adding a further 688 seats per week on the route.
"In Moscow the new A380 service will further drive demand for passenger and cargo services and the current buzz in the market certainly reflects this. As Emirates' South East Asian hub, Singapore will also benefit from the higher capacity aircraft which will further support the country's international trade agenda," added Mr. Clark.
With the addition of A380 services, Emirates' total capacity across four daily services from Dubai to Singapore increases to 1,659 seats daily. In Moscow the total capacity across two daily services from Dubai to Moscow increases to 775 seats daily.
Continuing with its swift A380 utilization from December 10th Emirates will operate all five daily services from London Heathrow with an A380. New York and Paris will also benefit from the upcoming A380 deliveries, each receiving their second daily A380 service from 1st January 2013. The extensive Emirates A380 network enables many customers to now travel onboard the A380 for the full length of their journey.
Passengers in all classes can enjoy Emirates' award-winning 'ice' Digital Widescreen, the industry's most sophisticated video and audio system, offering 1,400 channels of on-demand entertainment - the largest selection of programming in the sky.
Emirates now operates to 21 A380 destinations with new cities to be announced in the coming months.
Aircraft timings
Moscow - The new A380 service EK131, one of two daily Emirates flights to Moscow, departs Dubai at 1750hrs and arrives at Domodedovo International Airport at 2305hrs. The return flight departs Moscow at 0105hrs arriving in Dubai at 0620hrs.
Singapore - The new A380 service, one of four daily Emirates flights to Singapore, departs Dubai at 0325hrs and arrives at Changi International Airport at 1440hrs. The return flight departs Singapore at 2135hrs arriving in Dubai at 0100hrs the following day.

Second Reading: Impress. As you read (Romans 1:1-15) for the second time, notice what word or phrase jumps out at you or makes the biggest impression. Ask God to "impress" upon you what he want you to see in this passage.
Third Reading: Pray. As you read this passage of scripture (Romans 1:1-15) for the third time through, spend a few moments in prayer thanking and praising God for His holy word. As you read, be prayer fully asking God what he has for you in this scripture.
Fourth Reading: Live. In this final reading of the passage (Romans 1:1-15) ask God to show you how he wants you to live based on this scripture. Is there something he would have you start doing, stop doing or continue doing?

June 06, 2013
The City of Tallahassee's Underground Utilities took home first place Friday, May 31, in a rigorous statewide competition sponsored by the Florida Sterling Council. The City was named 2013 Team Showcase Champion by the Council for its outstanding achievement in implementing a nitrogen reduction program as part of the City's commitment to move to a higher treatment level known as Advanced Wastewater Treatment (AWT).
The prestigious Team Showcase Award recognizes the City for excellence and exemplary practices among all public and private organizations throughout Florida. The City received the top honor for its commitment to integrating the Sterling approach for process improvement to achieve the highest level of customer service, operational performance and environmental protection.
In addition to achieving the top honor in the Team Showcase, the City received the Council's People's Choice Awards for Best Use of Data and Greatest Customer Impact. Winners were announced at the Council's 21st Annual Florida Sterling Conference, held May 28-31 in Orlando, Fla.
"The AWT project has been extremely successful and is a true testament to Tallahassee's environmental commitment to protecting our drinking water and natural treasures, such as Wakulla Springs," said Mayor John Marks. "By significantly reducing nitrogen levels, we're helping improve the water quality of the region's lakes, streams, underground waters and springs because nitrogen fuels the growth of algae and other noxious plants.
"This award also demonstrates that City employees are industry leaders," Marks said. "As strong advocates of advanced technology and innovative solutions, we're working efficiently to save time and money. That means our citizens are the ultimate beneficiaries with more efficient operations and higher water quality. In addition, hundreds of jobs were created during AWT construction."
This initiative involved multiple coordination activities that led to the City meeting state nitrogen limits a year earlier than scheduled. The process included providing additional training to utility team members on new technologies, increased monitoring, using historical data to produce computer modeling that enhances decision making, keeping costs down through value engineering, team brainstorming sessions, and visiting utility operations in other areas to exchange best practices.
Underground Utilities General Manager Mike Tadros credited City leaders for their vision and staff for its hard work.
"This is a great tribute to the dedication of our employee wastewater treatment team, as well as the continued support from City leadership," Tadros said. "It is just one more example of what makes us the #1 Public Utility in America."
Established in 1992, the Florida Sterling Council is a public/private not-for-profit organization supported by the Executive Office of the Governor. Its annual conference serves to highlight the award winners as industry role models and to teach participants how to elevate business performance and increase productivity. This year's event attracted nearly 1,000 executives and professionals from throughout the Southeast region.

On the scene in front of Buckingham Palace, a sense of restrained joy from passersby.
LONDON -- The news of a thoroughly modern royal pregnancy spread in a thoroughly modern way: via Facebook accounts, TV screens in pubs and train stations, news alerts sent to mobile phones.
And Brits reacted with thoroughly modern sentiment: happiness for an appealing young couple, rather than satisfaction that the royal family has another heir. The front of Buckingham Palace was deserted except for a few news correspondents. There were no national flags flying or happy honking of horns, as sometimes happens after big soccer victories.
When she heard the news, "I did become quite excited," says Bev Isherwood, an assistant shop manager from North Yorkshire who was visiting London. "They seem like a very genuine and happy couple, and it just feels very right. ... I feel more happy for them as a couple than for the lineage going on."
"It's hard to think about the child in the future when his dad isn't even king," added her friend David Smith, a North Yorkshire firefighter.
"It's a happy event," said Janet Simm, who was visiting London from Leeds. "On the whole times are hard, and any pregnancy that is wanted is a good thing." She said she's not feeling particularly relieved or excited about another shoot on the Windsor tree; if the pregnancy is successful, "it would be another person in line for the throne, but there are plenty of people in line anyway."
"I wish them all the best. I like the royal family, they're an asset to the country, and William and Kate enhance it," said security guard Peter Smith of Kent, a suburban district of London. All the same, "I'm not going to go around jumping up and down and screaming and shouting. They're a nice couple — good luck to them."
Though delighted by the news, Brits do not seem to feel that it was Kate's highest obligation to get pregnant, and there's no sense of relief that she had managed to conceive. "It's not everything if you don't get pregnant," said London musician Tim Steemson. "I'm sure everyone would've felt the same about her if she didn't get pregnant. I think we've moved on from the 1890s."
What made the news especially welcome, Isherwood said, is that during her childhood the news out of the royal family was usually sad — the death of Diana, the death of the Queen Mother. "This is the total opposite. This is a very upbeat thing."
Most Brits were not concerned about Kate's health problems, shrugging off her morning sickness as part and parcel of pregnancy. "Morning sickness is natural, isn't it," said Peter Smith.
But those with some knowledge of medical matters were less sanguine.
"It's too early to announce it, because lots of things could go wrong," says Simm, a retired physician. "Having to be admitted to hospital for acute morning sickness is not a good sign. ... I hope it's perfectly all right, but I'm guarded about it."
No one had strong feelings about names, "as long as it's not a silly one," said Linda Rowley, a shop assistant visiting London from Middlesborough.
"I reckon it will be a strong historical name of some sort. It could be George or a Victoria or an Elizabeth. I just hope they get to choose what they want to choose."
Headlines from Britain's tabloids ranged from ecstatic ("Baby Joy for Wills & Kate," said the Sun online) to concerned ("Worried William spends hours at pregnant Kate's hospital bedside," said the Daily Mail online) to nonchalant ("Duchess of Cambridge Expecting A Baby," said the liberal Independent, which also ran a congratulatory letter from an anti-monarchist advising the couple to "lose the titles" and move out of the palace).
The happiest people in Britain may have been the editors of HELLO! Magazine, whose current cover bears a photo of Kate and the headline "Baby Talk — William and Kate Spark Rumours." "HELLO! got it right," gloated the headline on the magazine's website.
But a sizable minority was determined not to be excited.
"To be honest, I don't care," said Londoner Phi Iudwick, an unemployed musician. "Whether she's pregnant or not, you couldn't find a less concerned man. I feel more passionately about a cup of tea than I feel about this."

The violet wave
[La vague violette] 1895-96
oil on canvas
canvas 73.0 (h) x 92.0 (w) cm
Musée d'Orsay, Paris , Purchase 1988

Lacombe visited the coastal village of Camaret-sur-mer in Brittany every summer from 1888 onwards. First taught to paint by family friends such as Gervex, Lacombe's career was galvanised by meeting Sérusier in 1892, then by seeing Gauguin's woodcarvings in Paris in 1893. Although primarily a sculptor and decorator in wood, he joined the Nabis—who dubbed him the 'Nabi sculptor'—and painted in an individualistic style in the 1890s.
Instead of painting the picturesque costumed Breton peasant women favoured by other artists, Lacombe often depicted unpeopled scenes: landscapes of brooding, druidic forests or rocky caves. He used the bright, restricted palette favoured by Sérusier and others: 'Three or four colours, carefully chosen, are enough, and quite expressive. Any more colours would only lessen the painting's impact,' Sérusier wrote in 1892.1 In The violet wave, the artist employed purple-black for the rocks, white tinted violet for the raging surf, and orange to yellow hues for the cliffs and sky. Such an artificial colour scheme reinforces the 'scientific' colour theories current at the time, and particularly the idea of complementary opposites. Yellow, one of the primary colours, is intensified by violet, made by mixing red and blue, the other two primaries.
The violet wave shows a rocky cave under the cliffs of Toulinguet, a peninsula near Camaret in Brittany. But instead of portraying the cave from outside, Lacombe looked through the mouth of the cave out onto the sea and sky. Swirling, rhythmic strokes of paint mimic the arabesque lines and shapes used in Japanese woodblock prints, which came to haunt, even define, Art Nouveau. Interlocked dark purplish-black rocks dominate the central view. The stifling interior is accentuated by the power of a wave rushing in to fill the cave, replacing air with seawater. It is as though we, the viewers, are inside a whale, swallowed like Jonah in the Bible.2
The strange power of the image is reinforced by its decorative forms and anti-naturalistic style:
Lacombe, by his refusal of realism, introduces us into a symbolic world: a kind of flux and surge of life, where the two contemplative forms, fusing with nature, stretch towards the sky, the only point of exit in the painting. The violet-mauve monochrome, precious and rare in this case, and the golden rose of the sky give this work an almost mystical meaning, and we can enter a world of musical correspondences.3

seems i missed last weeks chapter, time to read over it
Hey baby, wanna take a gander at some Adam West penis?
"A stand alone that isn't a stand alone".. so this might be one strategy Kishi and Oda are using to make it appear that they have already thought of certain turning points way ahead of time when in fact they're just using an inductive approach and not the deductive approach in writing. I'm not saying that it's always like that but there are times when I feel certain revelations seems to be forced in some Mangas especially the long-running ones.
Great chapter.
A great idea by Saiko to write a stand one story.
Manga reading list: Bleach, Naruto, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, One Piece, Code Breaker, Gamaran, Kuroko No Basket, Fairy Tail, The World God Only Knows, Kimi No Iru Machi, Good Ending, Medaka Box, Nisekoi, D.Gray-Man, Ao No Exorcist, Freezing, Magi - Labyrinth of Magic, Soul Eater, Rosario Vampire Season II, Iris Zero, Ubell Blatt, Bloody Cross, Sun-Ken Rock, and Infinite Stratos,
Seems so monte. Nanamine really had that Kira look going in last weeks color page.
Hey baby, wanna take a gander at some Adam West penis?
Nice to see our heroes are using a different tactic than their usual"we'll ramp up a 5 parter to have a banger conclusion!" Also... re-reading your own series to pick up on plot points and ideas you haven't thought about in a while? Good call.
And also a shame to see that Nanamine hasn't learned his lesson at all about using his own skill or trusting his editor. Even worse then before, when his editor was "the 51rst person", now he's the "221" person.
But, I can't really root for the editor since he has no spine and isn't arguing the point. Not even bothering to learn his name.

|In response to Re: damaged faucet valve seat
: You can try to save the valve and repair the faucet washer seat by using what is called an "easy out" in the stripped out area where the hex shaped whench flats were, but you'll probably crack the valve. You could try to have a welder braze a raised face onto the seat, and grind it down (that is if the valve is brass, and not plastic). You could try to stuff a fatter softer washer into the place of the worn out washer, but you'll be replacing it every three to nine months. You could try calling a Licensed plumber, and benefit from the experience and knowledge. If you really are determined to fix it yourself, you probably need to remove the faucet set, and replace it with new. If you want follow up information on how to do that, e-mail me at email@example.com
: : : Dear Terry,
: : : One of the compression faucets in my shower has a valve seat in which the notched interior (the area normally adapted to a valve seat wrench) is gone - probably due to poor original installation. I'm left with a nearly smooth interior & a very stuck seat. The faucet is leaking due to a damaged seat surface. In addition, a close elbow just beyond the seat makes the use of standard seat wrenches impossible even if the interior was not stripped. Any suggestions?
: : : P.S. Great site!!

Andy Goode kicked all of Worcester Warriors' points as they held on to a 12-3 victory over Saracens in the Aviva Premiership.
Andy Goode kicked all of Worcester Warriors' points as they held on to a 12-3 victory over Saracens in the Aviva Premiership.
All of the action came in the first period as Goode added three penalties and a drop-goal to Nils Mordt's solitary three-pointer. Both team's pivots missed chances in the second half but Worcester deservedly came away with a third league victory of the season.
With few players away on international duty, the hosts were able to field a near full-strength team and their cohesiveness showed early on in this encounter when Goode slotted his first three-pointer.
But Saracens, who had a severely depleted squad, showed impressive resilience to level the scores almost immediately through Mordt.
It was Worcester who were the more composed side with their former England international controlling operations neatly from fly-half. And his penalty after 24 minutes regained the hosts' advantage.
Goode then struck just before the break with a drop-goal – having missed an earlier attempt – and a third penalty extended the lead to nine points at half-time.
If the first period was uneventful then the second was even worse. Although the respective fly-halves had an opportunity each to add to the score, both failed to find the target as it remained the same with an hour played.
Sam Stanley then had the chance to rescue a losing bonus-point for Sarries, but another effort missed the uprights as the Warriors took away the four points.
The scorers:
For Worcester:
Pens: Goode 3
Drop: Goode
For Saracens:
Pen: Mordt

Ship Weight:0.10 Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm Tube - 0.15 oz. (4.25 g) Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm gives your lips the soothing feeling they deserve. Burt's Bees' natural lip balm is loaded with coconut and sunflower oils, rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids, to nourish, condition and soften lips. Beeswax seals in hydration. They've even added peppermint oil for a refreshing tingle. Take your pick of an old-fashioned yellow tin or a recycled plastic tube. No wonder it is their most popular product. Featured IngredientBeeswax: A natural wax made by bees in the cell walls of honeycombs, this substance is a natural emulsifier used in cosmetics. It adds a wonderful natural smell and color to products and helps to seal and protect the skin when used in moisturizing formulas. Collecting Beeswax On Nature's ScheduleBees know how to do their job, so Burt's Bees leaves them alone and minds their own beeswax until the time is right. That's how they ensure their beeswax cultivating process protects their normal production cycle. Bees produce a wax honeycomb where they raise their young and store honey and pollen. When it's full, they cap off the honeycomb and move on to build another hive. Then, and not before, is when Burt's cultivates the beeswax, ensuring the normal cycle of nature. Burt's Bees Frequently Asked QuestionsAre your products hypoallergenic?There is no defined methodology to test for allergic reactions in beauty or personal care products, nor does the FDA regulate use of the term "hypoallergenic." Consequently, Burt's Bees does not position their products as hypoallergenic. A list of ingredients for each product is available on individual product information pages on this site. Are your products safe for pregnant women to use?Burt's Bees recommends that any expectant mother check with her physician before changing her skin care routine with their products, or any other line of products. How long will my Burt's Bees products stay fresh and what is the best way to store them?Burt's Bees products are made with natural ingredients. They purposely present our products in smaller portions so you finish them while their ingredients are still fresh and providing their maximum effectiveness. As such, we recommend you store creams and oils in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat. Creams may be stored in their cartons for extra protection. Where are Burt's Bees products made?Over 95% of Burt's Bees products are made right in their own manufacturing plant in Durham, NC. The rest are made by other respectable American manufacturers. Do you test on animals and do your products contain animal-derived ingredients?Burt's Bees does NOT conduct product or ingredient tests of any kind on animals. A few of their products contain ingredients derived from animals such as beeswax, royal jelly, milk and carmine. I am allergic to bees. Can I still use your products?Burt's Bees does not use actual bee venom in their products – only bee by products such as honey, beeswax, royal jelly and honey powder. However, if you are allergic to bee by-products, then Burt's Bees does not suggest using their products. They recommend that you contact your health care provider when changing your skin care regimen to find out which products are best for you. What Burt's Bees is All AboutYour well-being is affected every single day by the personal care products you use. Burt's Bees' goal is to create and educate people on truly natural products that have a positive effect on both you and the world you live in for the good of your well-being, for the good of the environment and for The Greater Good. Simply put, they strive to make people's lives better every day — naturally. The Story Behind Burt's Bees BrandBurt's Bees has come a long way from selling home-made beeswax lip balms and hand salves at local craft fairs, but their belief in creating truly natural products that are good for you and the environment hasn't changed.

Him having been "blown up" all those years back at Grey Terminal would make a plausible reason for his steampunk-like cyborg fashion/body.....
yeah i would not mind. im more interested in why sabo is with flamingo if it is him. i just feel that the why will make or break it you know .
Sabo being with Dofla makes no sense.
And whats the reason to asume that the masked guys is Sabo in the first place?There's nothing indicating that,its just that OP fans want everyone to be Sabo.
Sabo being with Dofla makes no sense, until it is explained and then makes perfect sense. Of course, you are right; according to One Piece: Green, Sabo lost his life. How could it be Sabo if Sabo is dead?
^ You know, I never get that One Piece: Green argument, yes it says he dies in it, but we had Iva-chan close by, who has been shown to bring people back from certain death. Plus, its just One Piece Green, Oda could have just put in "he died" because if he didn't it would hint to hardly at Sabo being alive.
Anything is 'possible' ...
But it's clearly much .. MUCH more likely Sabo died, and was only made as a crutch to help Luffy get over Aces death.
I know people love to theorize/daydream when it comes to comics/books/shows, but don't let you're own fantasies clog what is more and less likely to happen.
hal can you please show us that page and let us read it for our selves. plus we are not sure where the translations came from. nor do we get the context that it was written. context matters... it just does !.
also i was reading another conversation some where else and some one brought this up.
that the 3 cups could have been sabo's doing. since you see the paper nailed to ace's grave. the 3 cups is like when luffy sabo and ace drank together. now that theory has more than a few holes in it but still.

EAC maintains the National Mail Voter Registration Form, which voters can use to register to vote and update their registration information. The form is available in seven languages.
EAC also provides voter guides in 11 languages and a variety of links to helpful resources for voters relating to registration, military and overseas voting, accessibility, and volunteering as a poll worker.
HAVA mandates that EAC accredit voting system test laboratories and certify voting equipment, marking the first time the federal government has offered these services to the states.
EAC is committed to running the program in a transparent manner, releasing voting system test plans and reports for the public to review and posting detailed information about the voluntary voting system guidelines, program policies, and related correspondence.
One of EAC's top priorities is providing assistance to election officials. We do this by issuing guidance, advisories and best practices to help officials comply with the Help America Vote Act and make other election administration improvements and enhancements.
EAC administers federal funding to improve the administration of U.S. elections as authorized by the Help America Vote Act. The commission also manages discretionary, competitive grant programs authorized by HAVA, including the HAVA College Program to recruit college students to serve as poll workers and the HAVA Mock Election Program, which supports activities to educate secondary students in the electoral process.
EAC is responsible under the Help America Vote Act for collecting information about election administration issues and sharing that information with Congress, election officials and the public.
This section contains completed research and reports commissioned by EAC, information about EAC research in progress, and additional elections research issued by other organizations. Datasets are also available to download.
Voters can use the National Mail Voter Registration Form to register to vote, update registration information due to a change of name, make a change of address, or register with a political party.
The National Form also contains voter registration rules and regulations for each state and territory. For more information about registering to vote, contact your state election office. Read our Frequently Asked Questions for more information about the national form.
Flu season is here, and for the second year EAC is collecting flu season contingency plans from election officials. EAC is gathering and sharing this information because election officials expressed an interest in learning what their peers are doing to prevent the spread of the flu at the polling place. It's my experience that the best solutions in elections come from those in the field. EAC is collecting these contingency plans as part of its role as a national clearinghouse.
Election officials should submit their plans to email@example.com. Thank you to Bristol, Virginia for the first submission! Read contingency plan submissions here. We look forward to sharing these ideas as officials prepare for the 2012 election cycle.
Officials can also sign up to be experts or search for expertise in the Election Official Exchange.
