World TB Day is March 24. This annual event commemorates the date in 1882 when Robert Koch announced his discovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacteria that causes tuberculosis (TB).
In observance of World TB Day, the Bureau of TB Control (BTBC) hosted a Breakfast Seminar to launch the new TB Awareness Campaign and formally announce this year's World TB Day theme, planned activities and the revival of the "Coalition for a TB-Free NYC" (formally known as the NYC TB Coalition Project). The Breakfast Seminar was held at the Nice Restaurant in the Chinatown area. Guests included local media, partners, providers and community based organizations serving high-risk communities.

Thomas R. Frieden, MD, MPH
Dr. Frieden is Commissioner of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, one of the world's oldest and largest public health agencies. Since becoming Commissioner in January 2002, Dr. Frieden has, among other initiatives, overseen the merger of NYC's health and mental hygiene agencies, improving the coordination of mental and physical health promotion and protection; expanded data collection so that we know more than ever about the health status of New Yorkers; implemented a comprehensive tobacco control program that has resulted in nearly 200,000 fewer smokers and will prevent 60,000 premature deaths; established Take Care New York, a comprehensive health policy that targets the City's most critical health problems; and opened community-based District Public Health Offices in Harlem, Central Brooklyn, and the South Bronx to improve health in the City's sickest neighborhoods.
Dr. Frieden worked for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as an Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer in New York City from 1990-1992. From 1992-1996 he was Assistant Commissioner and Director of the Health Department's tuberculosis control program. In this role, he managed the City's successful tuberculosis control efforts, which reversed the epidemic of tuberculosis and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. Dr. Frieden then worked in India for 5 years, helping the national government establish what is now the world's largest effective tuberculosis program; India's program has now treated millions of patients and saved hundreds of thousands of lives. Dr. Frieden completed his medical, public health, and internal medicine training at Columbia University and infectious disease training at Yale University; he has written more than 100 scientific articles.
Zachary Taylor, MD, MS
Dr. Zachary Taylor is the Chief of the Field Services and Evaluation Branch, Division of Tuberculosis Elimination, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Dr. Taylor has authored multiple peer reivewed journal articles and book chapters on TB control related issues. Most recently, Dr. Taylor was on the writing committee for new guidelines for the control of tuberculosis published jointly by the American Thoracic Society, CDC, and the Infectious Diseases Society of America.
Javid Syed
Javid Syed was born and raised in a Muslim family in Bombay, India and came to the U.S. in 1989. He did his BSc in Biology at Bowling Green, OH and his Masters in Public Health at Columbia University, New York.
Throughout his career Javid has linked community organizing, service provision, and research to inform his advocacy around issues of health and social justice. He has worked primarily in the specific context of Asian and Pacific Islander immigrant communities and through that connected with the broader issues of race, gender, sexuality, and class both within the US and transnationally. He has worked through multiple strategies of community organizing, service provision, policy advocacy and philanthropy to address the core issues that impact a community's access to health and wellness.
In 1993, when he moved to New York City, Javid worked at the Direct Observed Therapy clinic at Harlem Hospital while completing his Masters. There he developed a proposal that involved treatment education with DOT clients to involve them to become advocates for DOT in their peer community. The majority of the clients at the clinic were HIV positive.
For the last seven years Javid has worked on Asian and Pacific Islander immigrant HIV and AIDS issues in various capacities. From 1995-2000 he worked at the Asian and Pacific Islander Coalition on HIV/AIDS, New York. There he ran a prevention program, and organized a policy network of Asian and Pacific (A&PI) Islander service providers on the East Coast to bring visibility to immigrant HIV-related needs and advocate for increased resources for immigrant communities. The last four years Javid has worked at the Asian and Pacific Islander Wellness Center in San Francisco building the capacity of A&PI community members and service providers across the U.S. and it's affiliated Pacific Island Jurisdictions. The goal of this work was to enhance the community's ability to get involved in policy advocacy and adapt and tailor effective HIV interventions. He worked closely with a consortium of Gay Men of Color capacity builders to collaboratively address the issues of increasing sero-conversion amongst men who have sex with men (MSMs) and transgender women of color. Linked with the capacity building work, Javid has also overseen the implementation of research projects in partnership with Center for AIDS Prevention Studies focusing on A&PI prevention issues of HIV positive MSMs and HIV negative youth. He has presented talks about the HIV needs of A&PIs at various regional, national, and international forums.
Besides his health-focused work, Javid has also been providing leadership in queer people of color and arts organizing. He helped found the Audre Lorde Project, a center for community organizing for queer people of color in Brooklyn and is a funding panel member for Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice for their International Fund.

This sucker's been getting passed around the Internet more than Betty White's sex tape (kidding! kidding! but, seriously, if you do have it, send it our way) but, as a man, I would be remiss to not at least mention it.
A fan (or a pre-fan, I guess, seeing as the movie's not out yet) made the following "call to action" for all the men out there to take back our theaters on August 13th when "The Expendables" comes out. If not, then the fucking broads out there are going to win! No more "The Astronaut's Wife"! More "The Astronaut's Wife Fucking Blows Up The Moon"!
The fan-made trailer poses a good question. On August 13th, what is going to be the higher-grossing movie? "Eat, Pray, Love" or "The Expendables." Looking at the two trailers (I'm not going to embed a trailer for "Eat, Pray, Love" mainly because I don't want to add to any of the pussification of this website.) Now, really sit and think about the question for a moment. What's more likely? For a moment, let's forget about the couples out there who split up for the night and go to their own movies. Those folks cancel each other out. But let's consider the folks out there who HAVE to see movies together. Will the female win out and get the man to see "Eat, Pray, Love"? Or will the man persuade the female to head out to "The Expendables"?
How about a shorter question instead: Who can go the longest without sex?
Hence, right now, I'm calling that the wussy "Eat, Pray, Love" wins out. But, as the plea above points out, YOU can change that!

I've posted from time to time about the 20 million (or so) businesses in the United States with no employees. I like to think of these as the core, the bedrock foundation of entrepreneurship, the home-office and one-person businesses of today that will generate the growth businesses of tomorrow.
While that's a nice notion, Steve King of Small Business Labs has an interesting post picking up on some SBA statistics that bring me quickly back to reality. If you rule out the businesses that report less than $50,000 in annual revenue, that number goes down to only about 4 million, not 20 million.
The SBA study is from 2002, six years ago, so the numbers don't match exactly; their total is less than 18 million, while the more recent total is more than 20 million. Still, you can apply these percentages: 43 percent of the personal businesses had sales of less than $10,000 and 37 percent had less than $50,000. That's 80 percent–that would be 16 million of the 20 million–that are probably more like hobby businesses, tax-related businesses or part-time businesses. That's a good thing to keep in mind, for me at least, because I keep thinking 20 million.
True, the $50,000 cutoff is artificial, and there might be another 2 million or 3 million businesses that sell less than $50,000 per year but are still full and complete businesses. Some of these businesspeople make minimum wage or near that now but still hope for the future and keep going. Others undervalue revenue in tax-related tax planning–I don't mean cheating, just, for example, living in the motel and drawing a wage that might seem lower than average wage because it includes food and shelter.
There's also the phenomenon of tax-related businesses; businesses that spring up and last for a while and disappear, motivated more by tax law than by normal business practice.

TEAMS: Cincinnati Reds
Reds outfielder Ryan Ludwick has become a free agent after declining his contract option for $5 million next season. Ludwick was the Reds' top hitter while first baseman Joey Votto missed 48 games with a knee injury, batting .340 with 12 homers and 36 RBIs. Ludwick made $2.5 million last season and got a $500,000 buyout on the 2013 option. Relief pitcher Ryan Madson also became a free agent Wednesday after declining his contract option. Madson needed reconstructive elbow surgery after tearing a ligament during spring training and missed the entire season. Left-hander Aroldis Chapman moved into the role and saved 38 games in 43 chances. Madson, who had a salary of $5,897,691 this season, would have made $11 million next year under the mutual option. He got a $2.5 million buyout.

St. Paul, MN (SportsNetwork.com) - Zach Parise potted a pair of goals and Josh Harding posted a season-high 37 saves, as the Minnesota Wild edged the San Jose Sharks, 3-1, on Sunday at Xcel Energy Center.
Mikko Koivu also lit the lamp for the Wild, who have won three of their last four games.
Patrick Marleau scored the Sharks' lone goal, while Antti Niemi allowed two goals on 12 shots in the setback, which extended San Jose's losing streak to a season-high three games.
After a scoreless opening frame, the Sharks peppered Harding with 21 shots in the second period, but Minnesota notched the only two goals of the stanza despite managing just six shots.
Parise got the Wild on the board at the 3:55 mark when a long rebound off a left point blast from Marco Scandella ended up between the circles, where Parise backhanded it home for a 1-0 lead.
Minnesota doubled the margin under five minutes later when Koivu was given room to work above the right circle and made his way to the slot before rifling a wrister past the blocker side of Niemi for a 2-0 lead at 8:11.
Marleau made things interesting with his 13th of the season at 18:19, but Parise put home an empty-netter in the closing seconds to account for the final margin.
Game Notes
San Jose fell to 9-5-3 on the road, while Minnesota improved to 13-3-2 at home this season ... Minnesota has won six straight at home against San Jose ... San Jose's Joe Thornton had his point-streak snapped at eight games ... San Jose went 0-for-4 on the power play, while Minnesota finished 0-for-2.

There's only one thing to do, there can be but one—to say the thing your soul says, to live the life your heart wills, to die the death your imagination approves and your spirit sanctions!
in Anthony Overman.
Their blouses were of pink silk, and their trousers of pale lavender. They wore gay head-dresses, and were indeed beautiful to look upon.
Sai Gee, a little-footed playmate of theirs, lived a few doors from them, and they had no difficulty in finding her home. Sai Gee was also dressed up in her gayest attire. * * * Sai Gee could play the flute. It was really wonderful. She sat upon a stool, over which an embroidered robe had been thrown, and played to them. Her hair was done in a coil back of her right ear, and her little brown face was sweet and wistful as she brought forth from the flute the most wonderful sounds.
in Little Almond Blossoms.
She was only a little yellow woman from Asia, with queer, wide trousers for skirts and rocker-soled shoes that flopped against her heels. Her uncovered black hair was firmly knotted and securely pinned and her eyes were black of color and soft of look. * * * She saw the morning sun push its way through a sea of amber and the nickel dome of the great observatory on Mount Hamilton standing ebony against the radiant East. She heard the Oriental jargon of the early hucksters who cried their wares in the ill-smelling alleys, and with tears she added to the number of pearls which the dew had strewn upon the porch.
in The Ape, the Idiot and Other People.
Sing is not included in the category of "goody-goody" boys. He is full of fun, and play, and willful pranks, and he sees the ridiculous side of everything quickly, but he seems naturally to accept only the good and to shun evil in any form. He is pure and innocent by nature and seems attracted to every person of similar characteristics. He has discernment and watches the faces of people closely, seeming to care more for their motives than for their deeds.
in A Chinese Quaker.
Obsidian is a beautiful, translucent volcanic rock, usually black, with cloudy flecks, as are seen in jade; like jade it is so hard as to be capable of taking an edge like a razor. Flaked on its flat surface and often beautifully serrated on the edge, an arrowhead or a spearhead is in itself a thing of beauty and a work of art, whether the Indian manufacturer knew it or not.

A cell phone to a teenager can bring a sense of freedom similar to driving a car on their own for the first time.
But a police officer who witnessed a teenager who was texting and walking get hit by a truck is issuing a warning to others: watch out.
An Ohio State University study said injuries involving pedestrians on cell phones more than doubled between 2005 to 2010.
A Pew Research study also found that 53 percent of all adult cell phone owners admit they were involved in a distracted walking encounter (like walking into a pole).
Albany Police said 17-year-old Jazarus Fuller was texting on his cell phone while crossing Sylvester road and walked in front of a Ford F-350 and was hit.
Students say they know it's dangerous walking through the parking lot and checking texts on the campus of Darton State College, but admit they don't think about the risks much.
Others agree that while texting and walking can be dangerous, they believe their skills at doing both are higher than others.
Albany Police say walking and texting can be just as dangerous as driving and texting.
In a brief poll of students at Darton, almost all admitted they walk and text and check messages going across parking lots and streets. They said most of their classmates do too.
Because of these tendencies, police are urging people to stop in a safe place to check messages or text, and hope that everyone will consider safety more often.
For Fuller, he was said to be in fair condition at a hospital. The truck that hit him was driven by 55-year-old Randall Bentley from Sumner.
No charges have been filed.

Six months ago, I braced myself for an emotional rollercoaster. I sat back, strapped myself in, pushed the big green button, and propelled myself into the highs and lows of my quarter life crisis-ing adventure.
It was last year when I made the courageous decision to step out of my comfort zone and figure out what life has to offer out there. At that time, when I shared my plans to some friends, they asked - why? I would always tell them, "it's now or never."
I admit, I have no idea what I'm going to do with my life (not then and certainly not even now) - but I'm not about to say I regret my decision. I was at a point in my life where money and comfort were not what I was looking for. I was looking for something new, something bigger, something that will inspire and challenge me. I knew then that if I don't do it now, I might never have the opportunity to do it in the future.
For so long, I was living in a bubble. A comfortable world that I was blessed to be a part of. I had a great job, working for a great company, earning, and still have just about enough to reward myself from time to time. But I was craving for something else. I wanted something more.
If this is the textbook definition of having quarter life crisis - experiencing emotional highs and lows, depression, a sense of being lost, constantly evaluating yourself, asking what your worth is or how much of a person are you, having so many plans that you don't even know where to start, and thinking about where are you going with your life - then I guess, this is it. Welcome to adulthood express! Where all your dreams are about to be crashed into the towering wall of reality.
These past few months, I have made a lot of plans, decisions, life altering moves that may or may not be based on sound judgment. But it was all about the experience. That's the game of life. It's about taking risks and putting yourself out there. It's about stepping out of your comfort zone and looking out into the real world with big, hopeful, excited eyes.
So no. Don't ask me what I'm going to do with my life. I don't even have a solid answer at this point. All I know is, I am living for the experience. I may not be where I imagined myself to be 5 or 6 years ago, but hey, I know I'll get there. Just you wait.
See you all on the other side.
Carlo Santos. Unemployed. Living. Enjoying life.

I have been asked to find a computer setup for our lobby.
Basically they want an all in one piece of furniture with a computer in it so the parents can use services such as parent pay and look up information on the school website in the lobby area. Has to be pretty much bullet-proof and stylish.
I went to an education ICT event at the Hilton in Manchester last year and saw a bit of kit there that would be perfect but can for the life of me remember the name of the company that made it. I remember it was about 7ft tall, had a metal keyboard and trackball set in a glass shelf at standing level, through the glass shelf you could see the actually motherboard ect. which was lit up blue.
If anyone can point me in the direction of getting a similar bit of kit that would be most helpful

When we enter this world we are surrounded by love, comfort and care. When we leave, don't we deserve the same?
Olathe Health System has provided hospice services for more than 30 years. We believe the end of life can be a meaningful time for patients and their loved ones. When staying at home at the end of one's life is not an option, there is a peaceful care alternative-inpatient hospice care at Olathe Medical Center's Hospice House. The home-like environment provides medical and nursing care, plus emotional and spiritual support, not only for the patient, but also family and friends. This "home" will be dedicated and uniquely equipped to provide modern medicine and compassionate care to terminally ill patients, enabling them and their families to live fully and comfortably while coping with end-of-life issues.
The Hospice House at Olathe Medical Park is being built and managed as a service to the community. Programs like this rely heavily on contributions from the community for the initial construction and ongoing sustainability of services. The community came together and helped OMC raise $3.7 million for the initial construction of the Hospice House. There is now an ongoing need for additional funds for future operations and services. Opportunities to support the endeavor can be designated to: equipment, furnishings, operations and/or endowment.
Donations to the Hospice House may be made in either a lump sum, or pledged over multiple years. If you would like to discuss a donation of stock, insurance policy, land or other assets, or if you are considering a donation via your Will or estate, please contact the Charitable Foundation at 913-791-4216. You may also donate online through our convenient, secure donation tool.

The 1886 season continued where the 1885 season left off--with the long-running hit, The Harbour Lights, starring William Terriss and Jessie Millward. Harbour Lights, which had been given its 241st performance of the 1885 season on 4 September 1886, was given its first performance of the 1886 season on the following Monday, 6 September. The play continued to draw audiences until the end of the 1886 season.
The explanation for such a success is not written in the text of the play. The Harbour Lights, by George R. Sims and Henry Pettitt, represents little more than a competent piece of hack-work. But Adelphi audiences loved it--primarily because they loved William Terriss. Terriss's was not a new face on the London theatrical scene; he had first unveiled it at the Prince of Wales's in 1868, and he had continued to act successfully on London stages and American ones from 1868 on. In 1880, he had joined the Lyceum's company under Henry Irving, and by 1885, had established himself as a popular and competent second lead. It was not until he starred at the Adelphi in The Harbour Lights, however, that Terriss became what he remained until his death in 1897--the matinee idol of the melodrama.
In Theatre in the Age of Irving, George Rowell explains why the move to the Adelphi changed Terriss's image:
At the Adelphi he was ideally cast as a man of action, often in the services, whose honour was usually impugned but whose bravery was overwhelmingly displayed and credit ultimately restored (p. 143-4).
Women in the Adelphi audience, it seemed, loved him for his good looks and the brave and honourable roles in which he was cast. But the male audience also liked him: "Terriss had served briefly at sea, and sailing and swimming were his chief occupations, so 'Breezy Bill' was an apt and affectionate nickname for him" (Rowell, p. 144).
In a comparison between melodrama at the Lyceum, Drury Lane and Adelphi theatres, Rowell gives another clue to Terriss's sudden success: the Lyceum "elaborated on the sinister and sardonic vein in which Irving excelled;" at Drury Lane, "heroes were comparatively minor figures, and the villains numerous and variegated;" but at the Adelphi, "the play's impact derived from the athleticism and forthrightness of Terriss's acting, and from Jessie Millward's quiet appeal opposite him" (p. 146). In Forty Years on the Stage, J. H. Barnes calls some of Terriss's roles prior to his Adelphi years, merely "splendid" or "admirable." However, says Barnes:
as the hero of the dramas at the Adelphi, such as Henry [David] Kingsley (Harbour Lights), and indeed in the whole series of the plays done about then at that theatre, he was absolutely unapproachable, and up to now unapproached (p. 218).
Thus, the actor, the actress, the theatre, and the melodrama itself were already in existence--the proper ingredients--waiting to be combined to create a popular success. The Gattis' success with Harbour Lights may be explained by their willingness to experiment with different combinations of ingredients until they found the recipe that most satisfied the palates of their audience.
Saturday matinee performances of Harbour Lights were a weekly practice at the Adelphi from 11 September 1886 through 19 February 1887. Family Jars continued as the accompanying farce at evening performances (there was no farce for matinees) until 27 May 1887. On 28 May, A Kiss in the Dark by J. B. Buckstone replaced Family Jars, and remained on the bill with Harbour Lights until the end of the season.
Mary Rorke, who played the original Lena Nelson, left the cast on 10 January, replaced by Miss Achurch. Miss Achurch, in turn, left the cast on 26 March. Daisy England, who played Emily in Family Jars, played Lena for one night, and then the role was taken by Annie Irish, who remained Lena until the end of the run. The other major cast change occurred during the week of 16 May (Monday) through 21 May (Saturday) when Jessie Millward was replaced by Miss May Whitty (later Dame May Whitty, who was married to Ben Webster, grandson of old Ben Webster long associated with the Adelphi). This week-long engagement was the first appearance by Whitty at the Adelphi (she returned in 1897). Millward returned to the production the following Monday, 23 May.
On 14 June, the Gattis donated their theatre as the site of a complimentary matinee for the benefit of J. A. Cave. There were a variety of presentations: Cool as a Cucumber was presented by Charles Colletre and his company; Charles Warner and Alma Murray appeared in the second act of Held by the Enemy; The third act of The Red Lamp starred Beerbohm Tree and Lady Monckton; the fourth and fifth acts of Heartsease were performed by Grace Hawthorne, Maurice Gally and the Olympic Theatre Company; the cast of Mr. and Mrs. White included Miss M. A. Victor, and J. A. Cave himself. There were also several short "incidentals" (Times, 14 June 1887).
On 21 June 1887, the Adelphi held a special early performance
(6:00 p.m.) to commemorate Queen Victoria's Jubilee. There
was no accompanying farce. On 25 June, the Gattis announced
the 512th and final performance of The Harbour Lights,
and thus ended the 1886 season (Times, 25 June 1887).

Previous Day's Reflection Next Day's Reflection Go to Today's Reflection
"Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division." (Luke 12:51)
Father Michael Casey, a Cistercian monk of Tarrawarra Abbeyin, Australia, in commenting on this Gospel stated, "Standing firm is a struggle. We are called to stand up for our faith, to proclaim the Good News, positively and proactively."
As I reflected on what Father Michael Casey said, I looked at the people who have given me a foundation on which to stand firm in my faith. My great-grandfather was killed in a hunting accident and my great-grandmother raised her five daughters for awhile on a farm and then in town. She was one of the early members of the Christian Mothers and served as their treasurer for twenty-five years. She was a rock of faith. When I was in grade school and went to visit, she told me stories about the saints, and she walked to Mass daily.
When she died my grandmother took over the prayer list. When any of us had a special request, we called grandma and asked for her prayers. We used to tease her that she had to go to Mass an hour early so that she could get in all of her prayers. My mom has kept that tradition going and now her grandchildren call her with their special requests.

There is an anger in this land
One that is not to hard to understand.
It comes from a lack of trust
Of those we elected to represent us.
This nation was created as one under God
It was built by workers of the sod,
People from all walks and faiths of life
Coming to a land free of strife.
From the humble beginnings of an early time
When a people who came with a yearning to be free
Throwing off the shackles of tyranny
Established a government elected to represent the many.
As time went on the government grew
Until it reached the point where it was run by a few.
Lost in time was the point of view
That the government is designed to keep the people free.
Full circle we are coming in this land that was free
To once more subjected to a form of tyranny.
Now that banner our forebears flew
Is again unfurled with its message for all to see:
"Don't tread on me".

Wow, these are great for us aviation geeks and they sure are cheaper then the vintage (used) ones out there for sale. My guess is, if they last through all of the banging around the flight attendants give them, they should last a lifetime for someone like me.
I just saw these carts and I absolutely loved them! You can get them on http://www.flightstudiostore.com/ I am definitely buying one for my husband this christmas :) He works for an airline and he really is an aviation freak! That website has a lot of really cool aviation related items and they give you free shipping! (I love free shipping!!) If you like these type of products and aviation, this site is a MUST! I promise you'll love it! :)
I've got a vintage one (Canada 3000) on sale right now Ebay.
$500 for the buy it now. Unlike the Alcarts, this one has all aluiminum trays. But they are "naked" (undressed). Using em as tool carts, but with some fun, I'm sure they would look quite amazing.
All the best!

Small Kitchen Space Makers: Corner Kitchen Drawers
Corners are important places in small kitchens. They are often the awkward spots, where drawers pull out and bump into each other, and they hold potential for wasted space. We showed you a cutting board to make better use of your counter corners.
Now, corner drawers from Heritage Custom Cabinetry designed for that corner sweet spot.
All of these drawer setups are from Heritage Custom Cabinetry's Zona Cucina line. Check out their site for information on dealers. Here are some of our favorite aspects:
• Deep corner drawer with space for bowls and canisters.
• More divided spacers for bottles and boxes.
• Drawers with removable spice racks so you can lift your spices up on the counter while you're cooking.

Oh heavenly! Who could resist a corner drawer and why did it take so long to come up with this? [Also with the freezer-goes- on-the-bottom-of-the-fridge revolution - what took THAT so long?]
That's exactly what I though, Kyla! Corner drawers - hello!
they are the ones to come up with it. it's manfuctured by a company named 'blum'
But what happens with the space on either side of the corner drawers? Is it utilized at all?
These are certainly fun, but I don't see how they actually improve anything.
You don't solve the drawer-bumping problem, but instead just pass it along to the next set of drawers. If anything you make it worse, since when the corner drawer is open, there are two other drawers that you can't open, rather than just one.
And you don't actually gain any space. Rather than wasting a square-shaped corner space, you waste two triangular-shaped spaces on either side of the drawers. Back-of-the-envelope math says that the area is the same: you just trade in two rectangular drawers for one awkward chevron-shaped one.
But at least they're expensive :)
i love em but damn i KNOW i'd hurt myself on those sharp corners!
cute idea, we have a lazy susan in our corner.
I'm a little rusty on my geometry, but I don't think this utilizes any more space than normal drawers, in fact it may leave more wasted space under the counter depending on if the back of the drawer is straight or triangular
Here's the back-of-the-envelope math I did, which for simplicity's sake ignores offsets, gaps etc:
A 12" drawer that's 24" deep gives you two square feet of storage. Two 12" drawers will give you four square feet of storage.
If you replace the two 12" drawers with a corner drawer, you now have a drawer that's sqrt(1^2 1^2) feet wide. From what I can tell, the back is triangular-shaped, so the notch in is compensated for by a notch out. In other words, you end up with an effective depth of sqrt(2^2 2^2). That gives you a drawer with area sqrt(2) * sqrt(8), or four square feet.
This ignores the various offsets associated with cabinet-making, but for all intents and purposes, you haven't gained anything; you just get to cram everything into one long and awkwardly-shaped drawer instead of two standard drawers.
While it's not a ton more utilized space I think you do get a bit more storage... if it was 2 drawers perpendicular to one another you'd have the corner post area with 2 or 3 dead inches (unused space) and skinny drawers that may not fit a wide variety of things. In my apartment the drawers next to the stove were just skinny things before the corner in the counter. This corner drawer is nice and wide on the inside which makes it more usable for most stuff and you get to use that space that otherwise was dead space.

"Ghost Adventures" host Zak Bagans has taken on his most terrifying project yet -- he just bought a house in Indiana ... believed to be the site of one of the most terrifying demonic possessions ever ... a rumored "portal to hell."
The house rose to fame in 2012 ... after a mother who lived there reported her 12-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son had been possessed. Shockingly, there are even docs from child protective services that back up her claims.
Among the many scary incidents ... the mother says she witnessed her daughter levitating above her bed.
She also said she saw her son walking on their ceiling ... an account corroborated by several other witnesses. The mother did everything she could to de-demonize the house -- including building an altar and hiring an exorcist -- but nothing worked and she eventually moved.
Zak tells us, he caught wind of the horrifying tale and made an offer to purchase the home for $35,000 -- the owner was all too willing to sell.
The photo shown above is an actual police photo of the house ... and it's hard to miss what looks like an apparition in the window.
Zak says he's going to live there and document his experience -- "If it's true this home is a portal to hell, then I want to go there and see what happens."
Balls of steel.
Check out the CPS report (below) ... detailing the family's frightening claims.
He's such a douche..
I believe in ghosts and can't watch him. Ughh
How much did they pay you this time TMZ? These "stories" are just thinly veiled advertisements for TV shows that are clearly given to you by the show's publicists. You do this so often it is ridiculous.
That "figure" looks EXACTLY like a Halloween skeleton decoration I have that was filmed out of focus.... hmm, hopefully Zak will be a dokumented case of death and/or murder at the house, he deserves to have his douche bag life ended... he's such a ****y arrogant, *******, all I can think of or picture when he is mentioned is the time he was "possessed", shaking and hitting the wall while yelling at the "demonic spirits" possessing him, lmao... "HEY YOUR A PHONY, YOUR A BIG, FAT PHONY!!" -Family Guy
Glad it's him and not me.
LIES THIS IS MY OLD HOUSE IN OCTAVIA NEBRASKA MY AUNT LIVES THERE NOW... LIERS!!!!! I must be a demon. Lies lies lies lies!!!!!
Gasp! Unless it's another portal! o_O whatevs
My Dad used to live in that house when he was a little boy in the late 30 s and he claims there was nothing scary
OMG that seriously looks like a ghost in the freaking window!
What a load of crap. For the record, I actually do believe in literal, Biblically-defined demons... but this is pure garbage, and I can't believe the hype that this idiotic story is getting. I won't be seeing the movie.
Every time I watch this show I hope some entities kick his ass .major D Bag
These guys are great at marketing. Obviously there is no such thing as ghosts....lol I laugh when people tell me they believe in this sort of thing.
Sad really....very sad...that people buy into this crap
Kind of makes me think he is a non-believer. If the story is true and he is willing to live there, it is no different from putting a loaded gun in your mouth and pulling the trigger.
There's so much more to these types of houses than things that go bump in the night. I wish some serious mediums and other highly spiritual people would get on this case. As for the location all I heard was that it's "near Michael Jackson's childhood home in Gary Indiana". According to Inside Edition. The world is filled with haunted houses like these so I don't know what makes this one stand out...
Can Justin Bieber move in?
I read the Indiana State DCFS report. Pages 3 and 4 are especially terrifying.

New York City's public school teachers have voted to approve a new contract with the city.
The United Federation of Teachers announced the vote results Tuesday evening on its Twitter feed. The UFT says the contract had passed more than 77 percent of the vote and that around 90,000 votes had been cast.
Negotiators reached a deal May 1 after a nearly five-year labor dispute.
Teachers will receive back pay equivalent to nearly 8 percent of their salaries and a series of additional small raises through 2018 under the nine-year contract.
It offers bonus pay for well-reviewed teachers and aim to save the city $1 billion in health care costs over the length of it.
The deal also revamps the teacher evaluation system.
Teachers also will receive one-time $1,000 ratification payments.

Department of Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA, USA
Abstract. Organic aerosol from primary semivolatile and intermediate volatility compounds is estimated using a global chemical transport model. Semivolatile organic compound (SVOC, saturation concentrations between about 0.1 and 104 μg/m3) oxidation is predicted to be a much larger global source of net aerosol production than oxidation of traditional parent hydrocarbons (terpenes, isoprene, and aromatics). Using a prescribed rate constant and reduction in volatility, the yield of aerosol (defined as the net mass of aerosol formed divided by the total mass of the parent hydrocarbon emitted) from SVOCs is predicted to be about 75% on a global, annually averaged basis. Intermediate volatility compound (IVOC, saturation concentrations between about 104 and 106 μg/m3) emissions and oxidation are highly uncertain since they are not typically measured. The use of a naphthalene-like surrogate with different high-NOx and low-NOx parameterizations produces an aerosol yield of about 30% or roughly 5 Tg/yr of aerosol from IVOC oxidation on a global basis.
Estimates of the total global organic aerosol source presented here range between 60 and 100 Tg/yr. This range reflects uncertainty in the parameters for SVOC volatility, SVOC oxidation, SVOC emissions, and IVOC emissions, as well as wet deposition. The highest estimates result if SVOC emissions are significantly underestimated (by more than a factor of 2) or if wet deposition of the gas-phase semivolatile species is less effective than previous estimates. Compared to a traditional non-volatile primary organic aerosol model without IVOCs, the global estimate of organic aerosol production is at most roughly 10% higher than previous studies.
Additional information is needed to constrain the emissions and treatment of SVOCs and IVOCs, which have traditionally not been included in models. Comparisons to winter organic carbon observations over the US indicate that SVOC emissions are significantly underestimated by the traditional POA inventories. The degree to which IVOC emissions or other parameters are uncertain is unknown.

Major paving work to begin mid-June on Ashby Avenue
For any and all Berkeleyans who live close to Ashby Avenue, it may be time to get stocked up on earplugs. Starting soon — mid-June is the official date — Caltrans will begin resurfacing Ashby (otherwise known as State Route 13), from Hiller Drive west to San Pablo Avenue.
As requested by the city, all construction work, which includes grinding and resurfacing, will take place on weekdays only during the daytime hours of 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Night-time work will be limited to digout repairs at the intersections of Ashby and Telegraph, and Ashby and Shattuck, according to a statement released by Caltrans. All final striping for the project will be done during daytime and nighttime hours.
The work is expected to be completed by early fall 2012.
The first stage of the work will be on the Tunnel Road section, with the intention of completing all construction there as quickly as possible to accommodate emergency responders as we head into the fire season. … Continue reading »

Berkeley library welcomes back yarnbombing on racks
Some stories do have happy endings. Readers may remember in April when something of a brouhaha erupted over the "yarnbombing" of a bicycle rack outside Berkeley's North Branch Library.
Local yarnbomber Streetcolor had decorated the circular racks before the grand reopening of the library, but the knitting was removed by librarians concerned over the distraction it might cause when they wanted all attention to be focused on the beautifully remodeled building.
Donna Corbeil, Director of Library Services, said at the time that it was important for the community to experience "the completed project fully, without anything covered up or altered since it was the grand reopening."
She also added, however, that the library would be glad to talk to the anonymous street artist about putting the yarn back up at a future date. … Continue reading »
Ojai North: A jewel in Cal Performances' crown
By Jason Victor Serinus
In only its second year, the artistic excellence of Cal Performances' Ojai North festival already rivals anything that San Francisco's venerable Opera and Symphony produce in late spring.
Ojai North opens today, June 11, and runs through June 14, less than a week after the annual Ojai Music Festival (OMF) concludes its 66th season in its idyllic open air Ventura County setting. Berkeley's Ojai North offshoot will reprise a good chunk of the performances that … Continue reading »

Derby Playing Fields set to open for baseball season 2013
On Saturday, a crowd of committed Berkeley High School athletes and parents, along with neighbors and public officials, came to Derby Park for the groundbreaking ceremony of the new Derby Field sports complex.
Construction is set to begin in early July and be completed by February 2013, just in time for baseball season. The new facilities will include a baseball field, a soccer field, and a basketball court to be used by the Berkeley High baseball team, students at B-Tech, and members of the community.
In the works for 15 years, the project was finally made possible by the passage of bond Measure 1, which will provide the funds to curve Derby Street and build the multi-sport complex. Extra amenities will be financed by donations, including a $10,000 contribution for a new scoreboard by The Lonely Island, a music-comedy group made up of three Berkeley High alumni: Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer. … Continue reading »

How It Works
Wonderful as always!
she is the best
Unfortunately her predictions did not come to pass on the dates she gave :(
So good a reading, so detailed and straitforward, clear, fast typing, and no fluff.. Thank you!!!
Very good session..was my first and she was definately on point...***Highly recommended***
Psychic Reading
My abilities have ALWAYS been with me! It's just something that's become so incredibly natural to me. So I think it just gives me the laid back approach to situations people tell me I have. I feel it gives me an advantage to be able to quickly connect to clients and get the reading off and going without wasting anyone's time or money.
I'm going to tell it like I see it.. I feel it is my responsibility to present you with the insight and information you need in order to have the clarity in the situation you're asking about, whether it be good or bad at the moment. Life will ALWAYS have its ups and downs, but how you navigate it will be dependent on ANY outcome!
So, what abilities do you have?
Clairvoyant - I "see" the past, present, and future.
Clairaudient - I "hear" information from my guides.
Clairsentient or Empathic - I "feel" energy; from people, situations, etc..
Claircognizant - I "know".. this just seems to happen out of nowhere.
Medium - I "talk" to spirit; human, animal, angelic, etc..
Lightworker - This one's a little hard to explain.. but I walk the path with a pure heart and clear intentions.
I have worked in the public at numerous metaphysical shops and festivals all over the country and am available at various online and phone based agencies. I have been a Liveperson expert since 2002! I write on my blog and am also on many prominent web forums and social networking sites where I write about my views, experiences, and provide general help within the metaphysical and spiritual community!
