Government notifies 10 more chapters of new Companies Act
The government Friday notified 10 more chapters of the new Companies Act, primarily related to appointment of directors and powers of board.
Major part of the new legislation is now operational. The ministry of corporate affairs notified 183 new sections Wednesday, in addition to 100 sections notified earlier. The total of notified chapters now stand at 293.
The new chapters notified Friday primarily relate to incorporation, management and administration, directors and board functioning, prospectus and allotment of securities, shares and debentures, accounts, declaration of dividends, registration of charges, in addition to the CSR Rules released earlier this month.
"It is time for corporates to gear themselves to comply with the new law," said Sai Venkateshwaran, partner and head of accounting advisory services at KPMG in India.
He pointed out that the ministry has made several changes to the final rules especially in the area of rationalising the limits for compliance with various sections.
"It is heartening to note that the ministry of corporate affairs has taken into account several of the recommendations made by the corporate sector in finalising these rules, keeping in mind the practical difficulties that would have been faced by the corporate sector in implementing some of the changes," Venkateshwaran said.
With this notification, the key requirements of the new legislation relating to incorporation, management, board functioning accounts and audit, will now be operational with effect from April 1, 2014.
"One of the biggest challenges for India Inc. at this stage will indeed be compliance with the new law," said Sidharth Birla, president, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI).
"This is definitely a positive step in the overall implementation of the Companies Act, 2013 and we compliment the ministry of corporate affairs for the extensive consultative process adopted by them while finalising these rules," Birla said.

Worry Is A Burden That God Never Meant For Us To Bear.
I feel like I'm beating a dead horse with this topic, but I can't help and notice that my readers are constantly worrying. I run 7 private groups on Facebook. I watch over them very closely and read posts and monitor everything. Often when I post something about worrying, it speaks to many people. I […]
God Hears You.
After my recent sharing of this post – Season Of Stillness and how it went semi-viral.. I thought to myself how could I write another article similar to this one. So many of you resonated with it. God spoke softly in my heart, a small whisper.. "Tell them to trust me and that I hear […]
Season Of Stillness
Right now I'm in a season of stillness. To me and to the world my life seems hidden. This means that when I pray for my family or myself, I don't see any fruit. And so the wait begins. God is silent, not in a way that it seems He is ignoring me, instead He's […]
When Grace moves in..
Guilt moves out. I Choose Love… No occasion justifies hatred; no injustice warrants bitterness. I choose love. Today I will love God and what God loves. I Choose Joy… I will invite my God to be the God of circumstance. I will refuse the temptation to be cynical. I will refuse to see […]
Did you know that being alone is not a sin? You will go through seasons of loneliness. Everyone does. When you start isolating yourself then it becomes an issue. Whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire; he breaks out against all sound judgment.-Proverbs 18:1 If you find yourself in this season for whatever reason, seek […]
"Come Into The Abundance of My Love."
I hear the Lord saying, "Come into the abundance of My love. Do not believe the lies of the enemy, for they will steal from you the promises that I have made. Come fully into My love. Allow Me to lead you and guide you in this season. Allow Me to be one with you. […]
Enjoy Your Life
Did you know that it's okay to enjoy life and be merry? Many Christians feel guilty when God has given them a blessing or a peaceful life. They feel like they have to defend, explain or prove themselves to others. We really don't. The other day, a thought came to my mind about enjoying life. […]
Comfort Through The Word
Do you know how to comfort yourself using the Word? Let's think about this for a minute, are we quick to pick up the phone to call a friend, or worrying ourself to the point that we can't sleep or eat? Are you intentional about going to the Word to find the comfort you need? […]
Four Biblical Ways to Overcome Trials
I have been studying 2 Timothy and what it means to truly suffer for the gospel. I looked up the word suffer in the Greek and this is what it means, to suffer misfortune; to bear hardship patiently. Suffering means different things to each individual. I don't know about you but when I encounter trials […]
Keep Praying For Your Family
On Sunday, in church I thinking about my life as a Christian and my family's life, I got a revelation deep in my heart and felt like I needed to share this. Let me be a bit vulnerable here. My husband is a busy and productive man. He loves doing housework, car work, and he […]
Seek Him and You Will Find Him
Raising a child in a Christian environment doesn't automatically mean they will become a strong Christian. We do the best we can and God will do what we can't. My daughter who is almost 10 (summer) said that she doubted God. She wonders why God doesn't answer some of her prayers, this makes her think […]
Reaching For God's Hand
The moment I feel afraid or overwhelmed, I reach for His hand. I go directly to Him and pray. It wasn't always this easy. I used to just sit and worry. I would worry so much that I'd forget to pray and read the Word. Many times we get overwhelmed with life and forget how big […]
Three Things To Do When You Feel Like Quitting.
I know the feeling. You probably feel alone right now, but you're not. There are many who are struggling with the same challenges. God has given us the key to life. Sometimes there will be unanswered questions/prayers and that's when we simply trust God, knowing that He holds our future in His hand and that […]
Living a Life Of Success
How can our children succeed in life if we as parents aren't succeeding in our marriage and walk with God? If we want to set an example for our children and have them do well in life, they need to see our own success. I want to show my daughter how to succeed and that […]
Importance Of The Word
"Visit many good books, but live in the Bible." "A bible that is falling apart usually belongs to someone who is not." "Half our fears arise from neglect of the Bible." -Charles Spurgeon Do you read the Word often? I have a devotional/quiet time group on Facebook that will encourage you to get into the Word. […]
Don't Rely On Experiences to Feed You Spiritually
Don't rely on Christian experiences to feed you spiritually. Don't get me wrong, they are there to edify us, but it should never be the main thing we are searching for. The main thing is GOD, Himself. Let me explain, in life, there are going to be many seasons when you'll feel spiritually dry. A couple of […]
Problems Are Only Temporary
The other day, I was updating my journal and writing about the challenges that crept up in my life, perhaps, I should be a little more honest and say that I was complaining. As I was writing I stopped mid way, and the Holy Spirit spoke to me in a gentle voice, "it's all temporary." […]

A name like Jeremiah Attaochu is sometimes difficult to say, and it's a lot different from the average name and that represents the type of player that Attaochu is quite well. No other 6'3″ 242 lb defensive force is going to play with the toughness that Attaochu will, and push as much he pushes himself on every single down that he plays.
Attaochu has been a force for this Georgia Tech defense for quite sometime, or at least it seems like we've heard his name be thrown around for quite sometime.
The Yellow Jackets' senior defensive end has an interesting story to go along with his name and character on and off the field. He is originally from Nigeria, and started playing the sport of football for the first time in the 9th grade because he said he was tired of just watching it. And boy wasn't that a great choice to make in his life.
Attaochu burst onto the scene in 201o as a true freshman, appearing in all 12 games. That season he finished the year with 23 tackles and also got the first 3 sacks of his career. Also to add to his stellar freshman year, in the Independence Bowl against Air Force he recorded a career high 6 tackles but the Yellow Jackets fell short by the score of 14-7.
His sophomore season would be his coming out party. It was his way of showing everyone that's he's here and he's here for a while and you can't stop him. He received his first award of many, an All-ACC honorable mention selection. Appearing in 11 games and starting 10 of those 11 he led the team in sacks led the team in tackles for loss and ranked third on the team in total tackles with an impressive 59. Attaochu made a huge statement and showed his presence can be dominant in the season opener where he racked up five tackles had a sack and even recovered a fumble.
The next year, Attoachu started and played in 13 games out of 14, was yet again an All-ACC honorable mention selection. The same season he recorded 69 tackles and had 10 sacks on the year that were tired for seventh most single season sacks in Georgia Tech history.
Attoachu started this season with high expectations by making the switch to defensive end in the spring, and was also featured on multiple preseason award lists. Attaochu will make an outstanding NFL player. Several scouts have been raving about his grit and how hard he plays out there. Attaochu will make an impact with any NFL team that drafts him at either defensive end or linebacker or really anywhere they put him on the field.

some douche just came into my store, and asked me which headphones were good for running. i pointed out about 4 pairs that looped over the ear and said "these loop behind the ear and are advertised as good for running" and he said "oh. great. so these are good for running?" me: "yup" him: "ok, so if i buy these and they fall out when i'm running i can bring these back?" me: "no. absolutely not. i doesn't work like that." him: "well that just sounds ridiculous to me" me: "if you want to return these after you them and the only problem with them is that they fall out when you run, then i can't take them back" him: "but you said these were good for running" me: "i'm telling you right now, those are made for running. but i'm also telling you that if you buy those and want to return them cause the fall out when you run, i will not accept that return" him: "well that doesn't sound right, but okay"
i quit. i hate people.

BYU receiver Skyler Ridley says other guys will have to step up in the wake of a shoulder injury to starting WR Mitch Mathews that will require surgery and end Mathews' season.
The Cougars won't slow their tempo, so Ridley, Cody Hoffman and Ross Apo -- the three mainstays -- will probably need a little bit of help. The candidates to get more reps are Kurt Henderson and walk-on Colby Pearson.

Convergence Q&A: Let IT be your force multiplier
Expanded online version
Here are some common IT project elements and what they can relate to for security technology deployments:
- High-level business requirements: short and long term strategies, future concept of operations (CONOPS in the military), regulatory compliance fall into this category
- Business case: the business case captures the risk mitigation aspects, as well as TCO (total cost of ownership) for the technology, and the hard and soft ROI for the technology investment
- Functional requirements: these are requirements relating to security operations functions such as specific reports needed, interaction between access control and video systems, performance requirements (such as turnstile throughput, full duplex rather than half-duplex intercoms, access control elevator button activation time), as well as DR/HA requirements
- Technology requirements: these include industry standards, corporate standards, support for legacy devices, integration and interoperability requirements, expected product life cycle, as well as system and application architecture
- Network requirements: Quality of Service (QoS), subnetworks, VPNs, Virtual LANs, Power over Ethernet (PoE), and bandwidth requirements are in this category
- Security requirements: as critical systems, there are physical and logical access requirements as well as computer and network security requirements; usually there are corporate information security policies and standards that apply
- Deployment staging: will a staging platform be required to test the initial deployment and upgrades before they are put into production use?
- Testing: proof of concept, initial acceptance (readiness for deployment), operational acceptance (30-day ongoing test), and ongoing testing often apply
- Risk assessment: what are the risks to the IT infrastructure posed by currently installed technology and candidate technology being considered?
If IT is providing support, then there may be two service level agreements (SLAs): one with the security systems integrator and one with IT.
Most successful collaborations with IT begin in exploratory mode, and then become oriented around specific needs or projects. For small projects, see if there is an "IT Lite" mode that can be applied or developed. IT can offer a wealth of resources, some at no cost and some for less than it would cost for an outside firm or systems integrator to provide. When IT becomes Security's force multiplier, a few people in Security can in effect accomplish the work of many, and to an appropriately high standard.

Physicians Regional seeks patients for clinical studies, including heart, spinal conditions
NAPLES, FLORIDA (October 22, 2011 by Naples Daily News) -- Physicians Regional Healthcare System is looking for a few good patients to enlist. In the past year, the hospital system has ramped up the number of clinical studies that physicians with its group practice are involved in and also in enrolling local patients.
To date, the group is taking part in about a dozen clinical studies aiming to reduce side-effects and symptoms of various conditions, to improve patients' quality of life. "Patients understand participating will help improve medical knowledge," said Dr. Arnold Alexander, an internist who is enrolling patients in three studies involving arthritis, diabetes and nuclear stress tests. Patients also have a sense of philanthropy that they will help others; for some patients they are getting medical care at no cost to them.
The studies at Physicians Regional are all in advanced stages, so risk already has been screened out in earlier stages. "I think we can say they are relatively safe," Alexander said. He first became involved in clinical trials at Cleveland Clinic Naples, which became Physicians Regional after it was acquired by Naples-based Health Management Associates.
Last year, Physicians Regional hired a research director, Rachel Barry, to help select which clinical studies to take part in. The research department now has two study coordinators, along with Barry, who helps to launch the local participation in studies and screen patients who could potentially meet criteria to take part.
"Doctors like to be at the forefront of (developments) and they like their patients to have access to new drugs," Barry said. "Do patients need a referral? The answer is no and they don't have to be a patient of our group, and we share some of the lab results with their primary-care doctor." Local participation isn't intended for patients to give up their relationship with their existing doctors outside of the Physicians Regional group, she said.
One of the studies that Dr. Richard Gelb, a cardiologist, is overseeing locally involves heart attack survivors and a drug that may reduce an inflammation that is an identified risk factor for another heart attack. One of the studies that Dr. Richard Gelb, a cardiologist, is overseeing locally involves heart attack survivors and a drug that may reduce an inflammation that is an identified risk factor for another heart attack. The drug that Novartis has developed, which is injected, may block the interaction of that protein to a cell receptor to reduce the inflammation in the bloodstream.
"It (the drug) is given every three months, under the skin, like insulin," he said. "But at this point, we don't know if it is effective at all and for how long." The clinical trial is in the third phase of studies so it's been tested in animals and in small human trials and it's safety already is determined. So far, just three people locally are enrolled but Novartis will allow the group to enroll many more patients as long as they meet criteria, Barry said.
For patients who have suffered spinal compressions due to osteoporosis, cancer or falls, Dr. Michael Lusk, an orthopedic surgeon, is involved in a surgical study where a small pouch is used to undo a compression fracture in the spine rather than a balloon that is the traditionally used. Instead of using dye to inflate the balloon, which gets removed so that cement can be inserted to keep the compression fracture open, the pouch is inserted and the cement goes in the pouch. After the cement has set in about five minutes, the pouch is removed.
"The pouch comes out at the same time as the procedure (is done)," he said. The goal is that the cement stays in place better than what's been the experience at times when the balloon is used, Lusk said. So far, he's used the pouch with 14 patients. "It may indeed be a better tool than the traditional approach," he said.

My last covers as Art Director of GQ Brasil #09 (December 2011), featuring Men of The Year awards. Selton Mello was the cover for newsstands, photographed in São Paulo by Mauricio Nahas (one of the best ones I've worked with during my consultancy at GQ). I think there is too much text on int, what reduces the impact of a special issue suck as Men Of The Year, but it was a editorial decision. The other cover, with Isabeli Fontana photographed by Vincent Peters, was only for subscribers. In that case the board decided to remove all the other headlines. Both were printed with gold pantone.

Cover of GQ Brasil #08 (November 2011). Grazi photographed by J.R. Duran, in São Paulo. In my opinion, the best cover I've done at GQ. Grazi is naturally beautiful and spontaneus, and I think this can be perceived on the photo shooting. It's a doble cover (with gate folder), but it works perfectly only with the front cover.

The pedestrian signs in Paris are made with small dot lights that together create the shape of the pictogram. They are very distinguished from most of the pedestrian signs around the world.
During the week I was in Paris I spotted four different shapes for each sign. Three of the red ones are almost the same, they just present slightly differences in the placement of the dots (sorry for the 2 blurred images, they are the best I have). On the other hand, the green ones are really different from each other.
Which ones do you like most?

October 31, 2014 There's a chill in the air and we're cool with that, because you know what else will be in the air in the very near future? Snow. We're shooting to open T2 for skiing and riding on Monday, November 3. Of course, this is weather-dependent, but with temperatures expected to drop on Sunday there are flakes in the forecast - both natural and Sunday River-made. This year we have even more snowmaking firepower, so get ready for some epic early conditions. Before you know it, you'll be shredding all 870 acres. Happy Place? Yeah, you'll have no problem finding it. If all goes according to plan we'll be spinning the Locke Mountain Triple at 9 a.m. Monday for a full day of skiing and riding with downloading service from the midstation. Just remember that conditions can be variable the first few days of the season and T2 is an expert trail, so we suggest that only advanced skiers and snowboarders hit the hill. After Monday, we'll temporarily suspend operations for the rest of the week to preserve the snow with plans to re-open for the weekend.
Bummed about missing Halloween on the slopes? So are we, but we'll make it up to you on Monday: If you ski in your Halloween costume, we'll give you your lift ticket for free. Lift tickets will be $29 for everyone else, available at Barker Mountain Lodge, along with all other skier services. Note: Season pass pick-up is at South Ridge Lodge.
Now's a great time to get your mitts on a New England Pass if you haven't done so already, and the College New England Pass is just $359 if you get it by November 30. Won't be skiing enough for a season pass this year? Pick up a Frequent Skier Card or buy lift tickets now and save big.
Be sure to check in here for the latest updates between now and Monday. See you soon!

Puys please help me with this question :
A city has a circular wall surrounding it. The wall has 4 gates located at the east, west, north and south points. A temple stands at a distance of 1 km to the east of the east gate outside the city. It can be seen by a person standing sqrt(3) km directly to the north of the west gate, but if any closer to the west gate, the wall obstructs his view of the temple. Find the radius of the wall which surrounds the city (in km).
I tried solving it, but couldn't find the answer in the options..
2) for y=5, x^3-4x^2 = 100^2*96 only one power of 3
so the highest term must have only one power of 3. and the minimum power of 2 is 3 for y=3....so it should be 24
Didnt understad this part..could u pls elaborate..

Step 3. Ice. Man.
In light of the Tour de France season, the recent post from Noah Hoffman, and a general inclination towards pushy opinions, the following is a rant on doping submitted by one of the oldest and most loyal JK readers. The American ski world has been very quiet about doping, doping culture and doping history. Perhaps that should change.
The doping problem is crushing my soul, and most of us are now desensitized to the depression of the news. Doping control agencies fight honorable battles in the rat race of keeping up with the cheaters (War on Drugs, anyone?), but every positive B sample sparks assumption and rumors among the masses, fear and doubt among leaders, and most importantly is like stealing the halloween candy from every young person that idolizes the accused. It is a jab at the spiritual heart of sport.
But why do we want to participate in a sport where doubt hangs over a stand-out performance? Are we really OK with downgrading the roles of our athletic heroes by secretly questioning the validity of their victories, the very same silver-tipped heroes who wield the almost magical power to inspire and motivate us toward the possibilities our own dreams?
Ever since I was a kid I have felt a thrill whenever an underdog overcomes all odds to win a race. Sometimes it brings me to tears. It feels like my own destiny is being lifted up with theirs, like I could win that race too, and it makes me want to win it. The thrills of their victories weave the very fabric of soul that drives me to sport. Heroes are the root of my inspiration to be an athlete.
For me, that thrill is the life-blood that reminds me that I am alive and playing a part in the drama of being a living thing. Everyone can easily accept that life has obstacles, and for those who's bodies are awakened by the thrill of that primordial tension, sport is the best tool in the shed to begin the work of carving out a meaningful life from the stone block of that struggle.
And what heroes we have! Spillane and Demongs' charges in Vancouver, Hoff and Legkov in the Sochi 50K, Bjornsen's charge in the Sochi team sprint, and Caldwell dishing fresh-served depth after Kikkan's Sochi disappointment. These thrilling moments are absolutely priceless. They serve as the mythic Gods of the present, modern symbols of perfection with the angelic prowess to prove to our kids back home that they can also win that race.
But what happens to the potency of these heroic deeds when the slightest shadow of doubt is cast over the purity of their sport? How crushed and confused are the young Italian, Finnish and Russian fans when their idols are diminished by desire and deceit? And would our heroes have pushed themselves over the line if they doubted the authenticity of their competition?
As long as we think about doping in terms of management, we will remain in a sort of survival mode defined and limited by the damage control that we are able to conjure up against it. If we really want to finally remove this old splinter from the heart and soul of our sport, we have to stop aiming the fire extinguisher at the flames and target the root of a far more painful problem:
The moral integrity of the athletes.
Cheating is not the problem. Cheating is nothing but the pathological result of a decaying self-image just as much in the collective culture as in the doping racer. This problem exists only because we have all forgotten why we are athletes in the first place, and the challenge to reclaim our core values rests on the shoulders of every last man, woman, and child. We have to remember that winning medals alone is not the highest honor, and that the burden lies on all of us, right now.
We have to start remembering that sport is at its core a method to practice the art of living as a human being. It is a means of understanding ourselves and our place in the world by directly confronting necessary hardships, and to selflessly pass on what we have learned to those that follow after us.
Sport exists because it models the realities of life, and this model is the vital life-blood that validates our tireless pursuit of success. It cements meaning under our fund raisers, and volition behind our demand for recognition in a country obsessed with "bigger" sports that lost touch with this purpose long ago. Any skier who understands this will never tire of rollerskiing in the rain. In fact, nothing will keep them from it.
But what can we do?
This is an invitation to take a more mature and intelligent approach to sport, and see it first and foremost as the life path that it is. The arena of competition is nothing other than a pure space - hallowed by leaving our pride at the gates - in order to practice the art of living with each other. It is primarily a place to learn that we are no better than our peers, and to purify our minds of this useless egoic rate-race. The true gift of competition is the lesson that all of life's challenges can be summed up in the burning pain of lactic acid; that they are nothing but ephemeral illusions waiting, nay begging to be metabolized.
All we have to do is remember that we are all here to perfect the art of skiing - to become utter and absolute masters of the sport, not just of the medals, and to leave a legacy of inspiration for our successors by honoring the purity of the deeds of our heroes. This is a quantum leap for the ego, and the result is that we are ALL IN in terms of blood sweat and tears, but ALL OUT in terms of expectations, judgement, and ego.
So what's the yard stick to measure if we are doing it right? It's simple: If the pursuit of our dreams generates any kind of negativity within ourselves, we have lost the path. Disappointment with a performance, looking for approval from others, abandoning humility and the search for the truth when a skier jumps into your lane, are all forms of negativity. We can still fight hard without negativity, because fighting with negativity only requires abandoning our core values.
Living by this code doesn't limit our striving for gold medals. It just means we have to master the art of striving, to pursue the medals to the ends of the earth with the same boundless conviction while also mastering the extremely delicate balance of effort and humility; burning the engine hot but clean, without a trace of judgement, with an experiential understanding the natural forces and values that fuel the fire within.
And the fire must burn bright! The defense must let the dogs out! The ab-sweat-drenched-beast must hunt! Unleash hell in the tracks and leave it all on the course! HEIJA HEIJA HEIJA!!!
The trick is to simply to stop fueling this fire with even the smallest shred of desire, and start fueling it with the the wisdom of the values that bind us all together. It means developing real and lasting faith in ourselves and our true potential still yet to be revealed, giving birth to a whole new process of wisdom, honesty, integrity, and all the other passé catch-phrases that lost their value through sheer overuse back in our childhood.
This change is free, requires no governing bodies or controlling agencies, will have a profound impact on all areas of the sport, and starts with you and me, right here, right now. All we have to do is upgrade our message from this crude and over-simplified mantra:
"We are here to win medals…"
…to this more evolved and intelligent version:
"We are here to perfect the art of discovering and unlocking our individual and collective potential, only so that we can pass it on to the generations to come…"
…medals or no. The mission? To refine our vision of success, rise up to meet the rest of the world, and then lead by example through the qualities we have developed within us.
Cheating is the most controversial topic in sport because even the deceit of others has the power to shame every single drop of sweat falling from our own foreheads. I challenge you to pick apart everything I have said and to prove me wrong in the forum comments of your own mind, to choose a position on this topic, and to decide what you are going to do about it. Don't say anything to anyone, but just own it, and live by it.
Peace out!

1950s wood kitchen, "Before":
… Cabinets painted black, "After":
… But then: 50 hours of stripping later, "After" returns to "Before"… back to the natural wood:
Yes, haven't we all done it — made a *big* decorating *mistake* that then takes hours to unwind. After he bought his 1950s house, Uncle Atom tried to dial up the retro in his original kitchen by painting the cabinets black, to coordinate with the black-and-white floor he also installed. But, it was just too dark, he said. So, some 50 hours of paint stripping later — he has returned his 1950s Scheirich kitchen cabinets to their original natural wood glory. A lesson here, maybe: Wood is good — especially much of the stuff used for kitchen cabinets back in the 1950s and 1960s…. So think long and hard before painting over it. As an alternative: Maybe a good cleanup and a fresh coat of shellac (or another product — I know readers have different favored methods) and the cabinets will be like new again for another few decades?
Continue on to learn about Uncle Atom's process for removing the paint and then restoring an original finish to the cabinets… Dental picks, anyone? –>
I asked Uncle Atom to tell me what it took to remove all that black paint. He said:
Hi Pam,Our kitchen cabinets have a total of 18 doors, 7 drawers, and a lazy susan. I chose to tackle the job in sections so we could continue to use the kitchen throughout. I used pieces from a large roll of construction paper to protect countertops and floors while I stripped the cabinet faces.
On average it took a few minutes to remove a door and seal the hardware in a ziplock bag to keep from losing any screws or other pieces. It also took a few minutes to apply the stripper. Then I would wait about an hour on average for the stripper to do its work.
I used a standard razor blade holder for scraping off the loosened paint and it usually peeled off easily. Since there was white primer under the black paint, if I started scraping away the black too soon, the primer would not easily come off. A few times I had to apply more stripper to break up the primer, wait another hour and then scrape again. Then I used steel wool to remove any remaining paint or primer. I pulled the razor blade scraper through the routed channel on the door edges to get the paint out of the corners and crevices, then I followed with coarse steel wool and sandpaper. For tiny stubborn areas on doors and cabinet faces, I used dental picks I keep in my workshop.I probably spent a total of about 1-2 hours on each door panel (applying stripper, scraping, rubbing with steel wool and/or sandpaper, wiping everything down with mineral spirits, and finish sanding.) in a couple of cases the razor peeled back a piece of the wood, and then I had to glue and clamp the wood down. Once the glue dried I sanded the glued section to smooth that area out. Drawer fronts took about one third of the time that went into a door panel.
Before I shellacked a piece I wiped over it again with mineral spirits to remove and sawdust or specks of dirt. I didn't think I needed to condition the wood, and after I shellacked one door as a test, I chose to skip a conditioning step.I gave each drawer front and door panel two to three coats of amber shellac on all surfaces and edges. The shellac dries very fast (less than five minutes). If the dried shellac had some rough areas I used very fine steel wool to smooth things out. I used the time I had while waiting for the stripper to work to clean, prime and spray the door and drawer handles with metallic copper paint.Once each door panel was done, I reattached the hinges and handles and reattached the door to the cabinet face. I chose to wait on reattaching the door catches and did those at the end of the job all at one time. (It takes a little adjusting to get each door catch to line up so it will correctly function to keep the door closed.)I used about four large containers of the Citrus Strip and a couple of quarts of Bullseye Amber shellac.It took me about six weekends and some evenings of work to get everything done. We're very happy with the results, and now I'm motivated to tackle the countertops next although I haven't decided what kind of Formica to use. I wish I could find something close to the mint green with gold specks Formica we have now. It's in pretty rou shape with some burn marks. Soon I hope to get our vintage Frigidaire Flair double oven installed in the 40-inch wide space where we have a smaller oven right now.
I forgot that you asked for a photo of me. Here's one of me in the wayback of my old station wagon, a 1969 Mercury Colony Park I restored a few years ago. I sold it to make room for another project.
Thank you, Uncle Atom. What a tenacious DIY-er you are — very impressive. Readers, remember, if you are stripping old paint be sure you know what's in it… consult with a professional. Barry is the one who painted his cabinets black — so he knew there was no lead in the paint.

I love the cabinets restored back to their original state – I grew up with these very cabinets and they looks just as good now as they did in 1964 when they were in my folk's brand new house.
I made that mistake several time at our old house. I did 3 or 4 paint jobs I was never happy with. Then I stripped and stained, but the wood just wasn't the same. THEN I painted them lavendar, which was actually pretty awesome until we decided to move and I painted them white for staging.
I will never paint a set of stained cabinets again. But I am pretty awesome and stripping and refinishing my flea market finds now.
Hello we have recently moved into a old house and when we moved into it the previous owner an older lady had painted the cabinets and trim around them white only the fronts and the trim tho and it was god awful my hubby has been stripping and sanding the cabinets we recently just found out they were scheirich kitchen cabinets. And wow what a transformation they look amazing couldn't be happier. And yes it is very tedious but worth it. They look great.
Since my previous comment we bought a house with original but poorly painted cabinets. I'm stripping, sanding and restaining them. It's a messy, tedious job, but if you take your time and do it properly it's worth it.
We can't afford to replace the cabinets, and if we did I know they wouldn't be as good quality.
Sorry, but I don't like the old wood either, still dark. I think white would be better, nicer with the vintage floor
I'm amazed at this Citrus Strip. If they ever need a spokesperson I volunteer. I'm currently stripping off about five layers of paint off a hand made bookcase I picked up off the side of the road. After picking it up six years ago I painted it an awful shade of taupe that I found in the bargain spot at the local hardware store. Turns out not only was it an ugly color it was the wrong kind of paint. Everything set on the shelves would stick to the surface.
Now that I have learned a bit of patience the removal is going smoothly. Goodbye taupe, red (one of those DIY sponge paint jobs) pink, blue and green.
I know this is an old post, but I tripped over it and thought I'd help out- SCHEIRICH was a cabinetry company out of Louisville, KY. It went out of business in the late 80s-early 90s. My grandfather worked for them in the fifties and sixties; the cabinets from that period were extremely well built, and the drawer design was patented until the 80s. (It was designed so that the drawers pulled out smoothly, and didn't tip over with weight shifting.) I checked into adding to my own Scheirick cabinets some years ago and was told that building comparable ones today would exceed the cost of most modern custom cabinetry- apparently birchwood of that quality is expensive. I seem to recall my papau telling me they begun as a freestanding cabinetry/furniture company in the early 20th century; he always wanted one of their old "hoosier" cabinets, with the built-in flour sifter cabinet, but never got round to picking one up. Anyway- looks like you did a great job refinishing yours; Papau would be proud. (He loathed people who painted over good wood finishes! But he would, since he finished cabinets for a living!)
Thanks for the background on the cabinets and your grandfather!
Hello Uncle Atom! I just wanted to tell you that you have really inspired me with your kitchen. It is gorgeous by the way! We just moved into a 1955 ranch home and someone painted over everything!We are in the process of stripping paint off of wood paneling and then we will be moving into the kitchen. After reading your article I feel inspired to do it. Thank you so much for sharing your project!
You mentioned Shallac, but did you use a stain? I have tha exact same cabinets in an 80+ year home. The cabinet doors need some help. Can you tell me what color this stain is? thanks
I did not use stain, just Zinsser Bullseye Amber shellac.
I have the same Sceirich cabinets and am looking for the wavy copper pulls. Any sources? Thanks, Janet
I have the same Scheirich cabinets and am looking for the wavy copper pulls. Any sources? Thanks, Janet
I have those same cabinets. I painted mine white. They looked ok but I've always wanted white cabinets. The original pulls had been removed. I didn't like the ones that were on there so I found some I liked at a ReStore and replaced them … apparently with ones just like the originals!
Pamela, Could you post a picture of your painted white cabinets? I too have these cabinets and wondered about painting them white, always wanted a light kitchen, but am starting to doubt myself. Maybe I should just clean and shellac them. The inside of all these cupboards are so dirty and dark looking. I thought of just painting them as well. I seem to have all the door pulls as well.Thanks.
Hi Uncle Atom! We are starting the kitchen after refinishing painted over paneling. I have a question about the shellac. I used it on the paneling, but how is it holding up on the kitchen cabinets? Do I need to put a protective coat on it?
I am looking for the Scheirich door fronts. Any ideas who to contact?
I have these cabinets in my kitchen and I love them, they have never been painted, they just desperately need to be restored. Now that I've seen your pictures it has given me inspiration! Can I 'strip' the shellac off or do I need to sand it? Also one of the earlier posts said her shelves were fixed, mine are not. There are two repositional shelves in each cupboard, some of my lesser used ones still have the original shelf paper in them! And Janet if you ever find the handles let me know, I have a broken one!
Lorraine, I found some on Craig's list and now have more than I need. I would be glad to send you one, but I don't know how to go about it. Janet
And, BTW, we refinished several doors. We found denatured alcohol takes off the grime esp on the top edges where its thick. Then we sanded with 100 grit followed by 220, and applied 3 coats of Zinsser amber shellac thinned down with the denatured alcohol. Use tack cloth before each coat. We're very pleased.

Targeted Support
For districts assigned with Priority Improvement or Turnaround plans, CDE provides a variety of supports. The department focuses on a partnership approach to identifying the best solutions to strengthen school and district performance:
- CDE assigns a dedicated Performance Manager to serve as the point person between the district and CDE. IT is the goal of the office to establish and maintain partnerships with districts over a period of multiple years.
- Technical assistance may include:
- the analysis of performance data
- the design of Unified Improvement Plans
- academic-performance diagnostic reviews
- training to districts with academic performance challenges in their schools, as well as to higher performing districts to ensure successful implementation of performance objectives toward improving academic growth, achievement, closing the achievement gaps and enhancing postsecondary/workforce readiness.
- The Performance Manager will work through the Superintendent and may work with other district leaders, as well as identified school leaders.
For schools assigned with Priority Improvement or Turnaround plans, CDE seeks to prioritize and offer limited targeted support in conjunction with the school's district, regardless of the accreditation rating of the district.
- CDE seeks to support low performing schools through providing technical assistance to school leaders and through building capacity within districts to support their low performing schools.
- For identified schools, the Performance Manager or Field Services Manager will work through the Superintendent in collaboration with the school leader.
CDE encourages the use of third-party diagnostic reviews for districts and schools, in order to identify challenges, prioritize, and plan for dramatic change. CDE will determine eligibility lists for funding for such reviews and will facilitate their implementation. CDE has revised the district and school standards and indicators for successful practices - these will be used in the diagnostic reviews.
Upcoming Priority Improvement & Turnaround Orientations
This orientation is designed to provide school and district leaders with an introduction to CDE's support for districts and schools with Priority Improvement and Turnaround ratings. Participants will gain an understanding of the data used for identification, additional expectations as a result of identification, and mechanics and implications of the accountability clock timeline. Principals, building leadership staff, and district level staff with schools with a Priority Improvement or Turnaround plan types are highly encouraged to attend this orientation. The orientation presentation can be found here.

Resource: Engaging External Service Providers (PDF)
CDE developed this resource guide to support schools and districts that engage external service providers as part of their school improvement process. Regardless of whether services are purchased with grant funds or per pupil revenue, spending public money requires the highest level of transparency and prudent decision-making when it comes to purchasing processes. This guide is designed to inform best practice when it comes to identifying potential providers, issuing a request for proposal based on identified needs, evaluating potential providers and their proposals, contracting with an external provider, and evaluating and monitoring the provider's ongoing performance.

She has received attention from the Boston Globe as well as The Library Journal, who named Cascade a "best bet" among upcoming first novels, and Publishers Weekly, who highlighted the novel in its Gallery Talk section. They praised it as "tightly woven" and that it vividly captures "the conflicting emotions that churn behind the human face."
Cascade's protagonist is Desdemona Hart Spaulding, daughter of a theater owner who dreams of being a member of the New York art world. Conflict arises when her father's theater is under threat of being torn down to make room for a man-made lake. Art and the possibility of destruction are themes O'Hara is fascinated by. She says, "I liked this idea that you're in a place that might be destroyed, and at the same time, you're trying to create art that you have no idea what will happen to once you die."
In her time at Emerson, O'Hara was a fiction editor for literary journal Ploughshares. Since then she has published many short stories in magazines and anthologies. Given the positive reviews of her first novel, it will be exciting to follow this Emerson alumna's career in the future.
