Seems solid, time will tell.
By TD
from Jacksonville, FL
Mine came with no mounting hardware to attach it to the bike. Reading the instructions its says you have to purchase the optional mounts. I went to the manufacturers webpage and the links to the needed parts did not work. An email to them didn't help. I made my own mounting bracket. I had to go to the hardware store to buy more lock nuts and washers because even though I didn't need them for my home made mount I still didn't have enough. Nashbar offered to get the parts for me but they were to late.

I bought this for a very beefy "sled"
By Tony L.
from Everett,WA
About Me Commuter
I bought this for a very beefy mountain bike. Had to force it to fit on one of the seatstays, but it went on quickly and seems very stable and secure. Will hold a TON of gear. Plan on using as a camping/fishing/commuting bike. Would buy again and recommend.
Nice rack for commuter/casual use
By Me the cyclist
from Washington
Nice rack similar to the Blackburn mountain rack. Solid shelf provides minimal protection on slightly wet roads and keeps the six-pack from falling through. Assembly was easy once I figured out it used a 5/32" not 4mm allen (who uses SAE any more?). I'll probably replace with metric hardware just in case I ever need to make an emergency adjustment away from home. I bought because of the price, but even at the same price I think I'd chose this over a similar Blackburn. It does not come with any extra hardware if you do not have seatstay braze-ons.

Pretty Good Deal
By Jim "the Redneck"
from Pomona, KS (aka God's country)
I bought this for my 29" GT mountain bike not knowing if it would actually fit. Well, kinda. I had to use a little redneck/farming engineering but a couple of drilled holes later I'm good to go. The vertical legs/supports adjust quite nicely and no problems there. The horizontal supports did not line up at all with the bike's threaded mounts. I had two choices, try to bend the supports to make it to the bike's mounts or what I ended up doing which was attach them to seat post with a carriage bolt and nut. Also, as a point of non-interest, the allen wrench that came with the rack is disposable at best, perhaps it's made of aluminum? Overall a pretty good rack but not quite worthy of 5 star rating.
Buy it!
By Kingmeow

One word: sturdy! Thick tubing! I was pleasantly surprised on how well built this rack is. I know ahead of time that you have to bolt it together given another person's review. Since I'm very mechanically inclined, I figured this bolt-together assembly would be more durabilty than welded joints. There is always a chance that a weld joint can let loose especially since I'm going to mount it on a full blown mountain bike and will be treating it roughly.The black coating on the aluminum is first rate and everything fit together perfectly. I had to use minimum (smallest) configuration to mount it to my moutian bike so if you have a road or commuter bike, this rack can "grow" much larger. It also has a "table top" so you don't have to strap on a piece of cardboard in case it rains to avoid the skunk stripe! :)Since no one has mentioned the hardware it comes with, it comes with all hardware to put the rack together obviously. But it also comes with 4 extra M5 screws that allows you to mount the rack to bosses on the seat stays and chain stays.It does NOT come with any "P-clamps" or rubber coated clamps if you do not have welded bosses. You can buy the clips at any hardware store or big box stores like Home Depot, etc. My bike does not have seat stay bosses so I had to get a pair.
Just OK

Trouble getting the rack to fit at the rear wheel hub. The "bolts" that screw in there actually create their own thread, so I will watch to make sure it holds. It's a little on the short side, I could use about 4" more overhang in the back. I bought it to carry a small gym bag to the beach with a change of lightweight clothes and flip-flops so I could go into a bar for a beer when I got there and come home later (42 miles round trip). I will have to pack light - nylon/polyester, because I won't be able to fit much more than that on this rack. If you want to carry groceries and larger loads, get a bigger rack. Otherwise it is lightweight and durable enough.
Had doubts at first
By Cyclebutt
from Memphis
At first look I thought, "One no..." Lots of parts usually mean a weak final product. Not so. The parts fit well and make for a strong, yet light rack. Just a reminder, go back later and check those bolts. You could use "LockTight" for final assembly and never think about it again. Good rack.
Works for me!!!
By gregjones
from West Georgia, USA
I ordered a rack that didn't work on my Trek. The Nashbar customer service lady said no problem, offered an exchange with free shipping. A example of GREAT customer service.I got it to fit great, I found a combination of adjustments that worked.It bolted a milk crate on it and several grocery bags ride great from the store. I can throw the u-lock and cable in the crate and they are ready in an instant so secure the bike.I am a newbie without any other experience but, this one works for me.

You are here: Home → Forum Home → Wynton Marsalis Discussion → Wynton Marsalis Discussion → Thread
you said my message is a little off thread Hmmmmm I thought the topic was about the rise and fall of jazz. these artist I mentioned are black one of them is doing wynton's tune. or do you want to talk about why there are more white people attending jazz venues in new york than blacks or do you want to talk about more than half blacck musicians date white or oriental men/woman to try and fit in with acceptance of the now white majority attended crowd at the jazz venues and bill board charts and grammy's. You talk about african american's and jazz but when you want to talk about the rise of jazz artist you don't want to address it. who are you to tell me to go find another thread or create one on my own like you own this sight.
Defintely this is a contribution to the fall of jazz what you had told me bone. Upon looking at pass commnets on this sight it seemed appropriate if you are going to discuss race you would not ignore a contribution of wynton's marsalis tune. its not about new artist its about the rise of JAZZ and the fall of jazz. just what is your preference with race when it comes to jazz if you close your ears can you tell if someone is balck or white or green these days. sometimes yes but many times no?
what about you miss karen you seem to always have some kind of an opinion I am suprised you have not said a peep.
peep. Yes, indeed, Ms. Marchelle is a talent worth taking note of. Her vocal techniques carry a great sound and range of emotion.
As for my opinions, expression is an art form in itself and all that comes with ebb and flow. I am still trying to get warm after my recent visit to the fair but chilly state of New York.
O.K., don't start a new thread. I want you to know that I wasn't trying to be combative, I honestly was trying to help you get more reponses regarding up and coming jazz musicians. If I came across as rude, please know that it was not intended.
I personally don't enjoy the two artists that you mentioned, so I figured "if I didn't have anything nice to say…."
Once again I am back because I need a release from my horrible reality. I just spent few hours in the Welfare office so I am a bit surly today. I really have difficult wrapping my head around the fact that intelligence does not protect you from tragedy. That is why as a woman with an Artist Philosopher's temperament, intellect must give way to raw emotion and my creative soul must be released from it's cage and crawl into the warm and soothing embrace of music ;)
That being said, debating jazz artists is seriously like shooting fish in the barrel for me. Although I give some serious kudos to Karen. I am about to lose my lunch saying this, but if it wasn't for Karen's contributions I was honestly beginning to think that Sean Jones was the most intelligent black jazz musician I have ever talked to. (Oops there goes my lunch). Though it was a very brief encounter, the young man seems to have a good head on his shoulders. However, my trumpet ego and musical pedigree refuses to acknowledge him as the best young jazz trumpeter. Most young bucks like Lee Hogan these days, are out touring with pop and R&B stars, so I think all the real black talent is being drained from jazz.
As for what Wyton would think about our conversation. Uhmm who cares. Should reason bow down to the tyranny of one carnal mind ? I don't know Mr. Marsalis but I am pretty sure he doesn't need anyone to speak for him. If he has something to say about this conversation I am sure he is quite capable to contribute significantly more intelligently than most people….. except me, lol. (Damn my trumpet ego, ROFL)

There's so much to think about here, trumpet egos aside. There's the American experience and history of sacrifice. The Civil Rights movement and its impact on subsequent generations… (What have we done to make anything any better? And how can our country end up in this mess when we have the most technologically advanced and most highly educated society of all time??).
Raising children. What are they being taught, anyway? Revisionist history? The role of mothers; is it not common sense that the more time and effort you put into your child, the better chances for turning out well? We're looking at colleges now. And it's an eye opener.
And then there's The Blues, which goes through this entire spinning thread.
Dr.Wahoo, when it all gets like this my mere logic says to keep practicing. The music will translate somehow. Whether it's jazz, blues or Granados. We all have creativity; Wynton wrote in his opinion everyone has creativity to some degree (makes one wonder, anyway). May as well use it and find ways to educate our children as well as adults, standing up for what is right. Exploring what is good and establishing common ground. Goes for everybody! Regardless of what nonsensical polls tell us or how the media barks. How is it different in Europe, etc? I agree with you about Russian music!
Best, Glo.
I spent another few hours today in Welfare office and realized that the only purgatory that in fact exist is earth itself. I really feel like I am in my own private cell guarded by the god of celibacy, imprisoned by my love for jazz ;) When I am totally stressed out my whole being desires jazz music. To hear it, smell it, taste it, play it, touch it, and feel it. True jazz is passion personified. There is nothing like melodic orgasms and harmonic body spasms, then to bask in the afterglow of perfect enharmonics. Instead my life has become a 12 bar blues that keeps hitting the 251 turn around and refuses to resolve. Clearly I am musically frustrated, lol.
I think I striated my artist side long enough to have a clear logical thought :) Thanks Gloria for your contributions to this discussion. I may be too emotional right now to give a lucid response but I will do my best.
1) Europe. My minor was is in Foreign Affairs (did I mention how much I hate UVA for killing my musical dreams, now I am simply a talentless geek). It is quite unfortunate that the media and the elite manipulate the masses. Europe is the breeding ground for racism, intolerance and imperialism. The way they point fingers at America and all other continents is quite laughable. Through my travels and education I am SO proud to be an American. Being born on the 4th of July may have something to do with that, but objectively we are still free and God has indeed shed our grace on us. This whole country was founded because of the tyranny European bigotry. On a global scale, Europeans have infected every single continent with their bigotry and materialism and Americans time and time again have been called to clean up their mess. The United Nations is the most corrupt and evil organization on the planet next to perhaps the International Olympic Committee or the World Bank.
2) I am reading this book called "Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No to Take Control of Your Life" and what I have learned from it is that to be separate and an individual does not negate togetherness. Out of fear do people deny their individuality in favor of a group identity. This creates stagnation and homogeneity in the group thereby stunting the creative spirit. Dissent and conflict is very important for the growth of anything. Hence why I created this thread in the first place. In fact when I went to see the J@LCO, before I fell asleep because I was bored, I remember Wynton saying if you don't like the music find a way to make it better. Clearly I took up the challenge, LOL.
3) Clearly this thread is completely theoretical and only meant to agitate jazz musicians to think in a different way. Like I said somewhere else, jazz and music in general is just an outward reflection of an inward reality. I just don't think music can communicate what the musician is not, no matter how long they practice simply notes and licks. And it has been my experience that most white jazz artists, while they respect the music do not respect the people who created it.
For example, I can recall in my high school jazz ensemble dating a white saxophonist and everybody in the band giving him crap about it. In fact my ex-white boyfriend on Facebook righ now talks about how he can channel the spirit of John Coltrane. While the young man is indeed talented with his mouth, he is clearly delusional because I don't think Coltrane would allow his girlfriend to be called "the jungle".

" And it has been my experience that most white jazz artists, while they respect the music do not respect the people who created it. "
How was the music, JuanMustard? Did they call it "Two in 3"? I bet it was beautiful.
Two in 3…killing. The band and MSU orchestra also did the Peer Gynt Suite (trading movements) and (JLCO alone) a couple of Wynton's arrangements, "Appointment in Ghana" and "Un Poco Loco" ..encore was the combined forces on his arrangement of "Afro Bossa" and then "Embraceable You" with the quartet…it was great evening of music…racists aside!!
"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery; None but ourselves can free our minds….How long shall they kill our prophets while we stand aside and look, they say it's just apart of it we got to fulfill the Book." -Robert Nesta Marley.
I don't know what the term "whitey" meant but want to reiterate the fact that I AM NOT A RACIST. In fact I am a Republican Jew (long story, lol) BTW, Shabbat Shalom, everyone !! The whole point of my arguement if it has been lost is: THE ROOTS OF JAZZ AND CREATORS OF JAZZ ARE BLACK. THEREFORE, TO TEAR AWAY THE ROOTS OF ANYTHING RELEGATES IT TO A SLOW PAINFUL DEATH.
As for the multicultural nature of MSU band. What do Hutus and Tutsis, German and Jews, Pakistanis and Indians, all have in common ? I am sure they all played music together at some point. Everyone is Kumbya until something goes down. As Langston Hughes said "we were the mask" or as the Good Book says "man looks at the outer man but God looks at the heart."
Get a young black or white jazz artist alone and then maybe you will hear the truth. No one has the balls to say what I am saying, simply because they make their money being nice to each other and it simply wouldn't be prudent. But thank God I make no money from music, it is simply a fun hobby so I can say whatever the hell I want, lol.
After watching the interview with Wynton and Geoffrey Andrews, I clearly saw what I am talking about in plain view. Even the interviewer talked about how culturally irrelevant jazz has become. It surely doesn't help jazz that stuffy academics care more about the music than the average person. Back in the day, Haydn and other classical composers played and wrote music for the common man as well as the elite. From a political and sociological point-of-view nothing changes top down, but from the grass roots level. While some institutionalization of jazz is good, to keep it going and to promote innovation some artists have to stay among the common people and not lose touch with the lower class.

You obviously have a very limited experience in the jazz world, and really have no idea what you are talking about.
We should all see what Bill Evans (a white, non-racist jazz Master) has to say about this in 1966, over 40 years ago.
JmanLP Okay Bill Evans lost me at around second 45 when he connects jazz to classical music in Europe. You had to go back to 1966 to get a quote about jazz ?
Are you serious ?!!!
I actually know more about the jazz world than I care to, what you my friend lack is an understanding of the greater world in general. I don't know you but you do not sound like an innovator, simply a technician of music. A true innovator would understand how to look at an analyze jazz music from a sociological, psychological and historical perspective then synthesize original concepts instead of regurgitating what someone told them.
I actually met the former head of the DC Nazi and KKK party last night, thus officially making this the weirdest year of my life. Despite the fact he lived and worked with mostly black people all his life he used to head these parties. Bill Evans and this guy I met, and many white people I talk to, have subtle racist beliefs. At the same time alot of black people and people of color of all descents have subtle inferior beliefs.
In fact, I was eating lunch one afternoon with a very prominent black jazz artist who had a black pride T-shirt on under a jean jacket. He got up to go to the bathroom and when he returned he had buttoned up his jacket over the t-shirt. I asked him why he buttoned his jacket and he said someone made a comment about it. I said nothing, but I was quite disappointed with his obvious shame about being black.
I don't fault him or the majority of white people, it is the result of poor history. As they say history is written by the victors. I am sorry Bill Evans is a great musician but it does not make him a great historian or social scientist in general. But again I don't fault him it is not like people were writing great black history in the 60s.

St. Mary's County should be seeing a new 12-screen movie theater next year.
St. John Properties, owner of 140 acres across Route 235 from the Wildewood shopping center in California, announced Friday it has a letter of intent from R/C Theatres to build the 45,000-square-foot movie theater in the Lexington Exchange project now under construction.
The Baltimore-based theater is anticipating the opening of the 2,400-seat movie complex by the third quarter of 2014. An initial press release said that was contingent on obtaining a financial incentive from St. Mary's County.
However, Jerry Wit, senior vice president of marketing for St. John Properties, said Friday that is off the table. "The deal is struck with the movie theater," he said. "It's going to happen."
R/C Theatres intends to construct and operate the movie theater with wall-to-wall movie screens and high-back, rocking chair stadium-style seating, a representative of St. John Properties said.
Lexington Exchange would be the 10th location for the movie theater company, which operates 72 screens in Maryland, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Virginia. R/C Theatres was founded in 1932.
"R/C Theatres fills a pressing need in the California/Lexington Park marketplace, and attracting an entertainment use was among the top priorities in our leasing strategy," Wit said in a statement. "Multi-screen cinema complexes are high-traffic uses that bring immediate and long-term visibility to real estate projects, and provide excellent marketing opportunities for the entire tenant mix."
"It's obviously going to be a major anchor for their retail component," said Robin Finnacom, acting director of the St. Mary's County Department of Economic and Community Development.
"We consider the California/Lexington Park area an emerging demographic market that will support our high-tech theatre model," Scott Cohen, president and CEO of R/C Theatres Management Corp., said in a statement. "The area has demonstrated retail strength with the presence of several national chains and the population is projected to continue its significant growth in the long term."
"I don't think we could have gotten better news than a commitment to build a new movie theater in the Lexington Park area," St. Mary's County Commissioner Todd Morgan (R) said in an email. "We have listened for years about our residents' wants and finally it seems as if this is progressing. Believe me, there have been so many stops and starts on potential theaters that my head spins, but finally it looks like cement is going in the ground, folks will be able to sit back and watch first-run movies in a beautiful theater."
Lexington Exchange has approval for 902,820 square feet of commercial and office space. Online site plans once showed a Home Depot there.
Wit said there is still room for Home Depot, but the company hasn't signed a letter of intent. He said St. John Properties has been talking with restaurants as well, but no other leases have been signed yet.
The new movie theater would be built behind an asphalt plant on adjacent property along Route 235, with a sound wall and a planting buffer, Wit said. The asphalt plant will not be relocating as Lexington Exchange develops.
The last new movie theater to open in St. Mary's County was in Lexington Park in June 1986, and remains open as AMC Loews Lexington Park 6.
The First Colony shopping center in California was supposed to bring a new movie theater when it was built in 2000 as a condition of its approval by the St. Mary's County Planning Commission. The developer, Faison Enterprises, said the demographics of the county then didn't support a new movie theater.
The county commissioners, under President Julie B. Randall, intervened and the developer agreed to build a public swimming pool in Lexington Park instead, which cost the developer $1.6 million.

Seamless currently serves New York, Washington DC, Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Houston, Austin, Seattle, Portland, Miami, London, and other US cities. Just enter your address on Step 1 to view all Seamless restaurants that deliver to you. We are updating our restaurant network each week with your favorite neighborhood eateries, so if we're missing something, suggest a restaurant now.
Your order is sent electronically to the restaurant the instant you click "Submit Order". Your order prints automatically at the restaurant with a random two-digit confirmation code located at the bottom of the order print out. The restaurant then determines the estimated delivery time for your order and then types the two-digit code. This generates your order confirmation email, so you can be sure your order has been received and is being prepared.
The Seamless Food Tracker is a way for select restaurants to let you know more details about your order status, such as when your food has left the restaurant for delivery. We know that Seamlessers love information, and we hope to give you as much of it as we can.
Once you click on "Submit Order", you will see the Seamless Thank You page. You can rest assured that your order has been sent electronically to the restaurant. To review your order, simply click the "View Order Summary" link on the Thank You page.
You can also check the status of your order by viewing your Order History. If your order is still pending confirmation, then by opening the receipt it will say under estimated delivery time "Not Yet Determined". If the restaurant has confirmed your order, then you will see the estimated delivery time that they set for your order. Orders appearing in your order history guarantee you that the order was indeed received by the restaurant.
You can also always check the status of your order by viewing your Order History. If your order is still pending confirmation, then by opening the receipt it will say under estimated delivery time "Not Yet Determined". If the restaurant has confirmed your order, then you will see the estimated delivery time that they set for your order. Orders appearing in your order history guarantee you that the order was indeed received by the restaurant.
To change or cancel an order, please call the restaurant directly. The restaurant's phone number can be found on your email confirmation or by logging back onto the Seamless site. Once you have canceled or changed the order with the restaurant, please notify Seamless of the change or cancellation by responding to your order email confirmation.
Please call the restaurant to find out the status of your order. The restaurant's phone number is provided with your email confirmation and on the "Order from the Menu" page of the website (step 3). Of course, Seamless Customer Care Representatives are always standing by to help. You may contact them by calling 800.905.9322, option 2 (US) or 020 3318 1875, option 1 (UK).
If you have an email confirmation, then the restaurant did indeed receive your order. Your email confirmation is generated by the restaurant typing a two-digit confirmation number located at the bottom of your order print out. Please contact Seamless immediately by calling our customer service at 800.905.9322, option 2 (US) or 020 3318 1875, option 1 (UK) for help.
If you received delivery and there appears to be a problem with your order, please call the restaurant directly for an immediate resolution. The restaurant's phone number is provided with your email confirmation and on the "Order from the Menu" page of the website (Step 3). Of course, Seamless Customer Care Representatives are always standing by to help. You may contact them by calling 800.905.9322, option 2 (US) or 020 3318 1875, option 1 (UK).
The most accurate way to locate restaurants that deliver to your specific location is by entering your address on Step 1. This will display the list of restaurants that only deliver to that address. Just click the "Find Your Food" button after entering your address and you will be directed to the list of restaurants.
To save a favorite, put an order together as you usually would, but when you get to Step 4, check the box labeled "Save as favorite," then submit the order. You can also save favorite meals on Step 1 by reviewing your Recent Orders and clicking "Save Favorite." Your favorite will then be listed on the "favorite meals" tab located on step 1. To re-order a favorite, simply click on the name of the saved favorite on step 1 or via the favorites page within "My Account".
You can also save any of your previous orders in your Order History as a favorite.
Visit the Saved favorites page to manage all of your favorite orders in one handy location.
Note: A saved favorite may not be available if the restaurant is currently not open at the time of order. A favorite may become unavailable if the restaurant updates their menu by removing or changing an item you have.
To view all orders placed through Seamless, just click on "My Account" in the upper-right of the screen, then select "Order History." All of your Seamless orders will be housed here.
On Step 2, you may specify a delivery time in the future by clicking on the time or date dropdowns located at the top of the page. On steps 3 and 4, you may specify a delivery time in the future by clicking the "Edit" link located to the right of the delivery time in the "Order Information" box. Please note that you may only specify a future delivery time that is more than one hour from the time you are ordering. For example, if you start your order at 11:10am, you will not be allowed to specify any delivery time that is less than 12:15pm.
There is absolutely no fee for using Seamless.
The restaurants are contractually required to offer the same prices as they provide on their printed delivery menus. In fact, many restaurants actually offer you 20% off your first order from them on Seamless, meaning ordering through Seamless is often less expensive than ordering over the phone. If for any reason you believe the prices you see on Seamless are not consistent, please notify us at email@example.com and we'll reach out to the restaurant to make it right.
For many restaurants, there is a minimum to order for delivery. That way, the restaurants can make sure that the delivery they are bringing to you is worth their effort. These delivery minimums are set by the restaurant, and may be calculated based on where the restaurant is located and other considerations.
When you reach Step 4 on your first order, you will be asked to enter your credit card information. To save your credit card information that you enter, you must check the box that is labeled "Save Credit Card." Then, when you place the order, that credit card information will be saved as the default credit card for future orders paced under your account.
You can also go to "My Account" located on the top of the screen and enter your credit card information there. If you already have information but would rather use a different card, click "Delete Card" then enter the new information and click "Save Changes."
To change your credit card info, you need to go into "My Account" and click the delete credit card link, and then enter the new information.
Seamless will process your credit card when you place your order.
You can safely enter your credit card number via our secure server, which encrypts all submitted information and transmits and stores such information in an encrypted state. Seamless uses Verisign, the leader in SSL encryption, to ensure all credit card data is transmitted and secured securely. Your credit card information is processed by Seamless and never shared with any restaurants.
It is customary in the US that delivery people are paid anywhere between 10%-20% of the food/beverage total. In the UK it is not customary to tip, but is certainly always appreciated.
For the majority of restaurants and caterers (in the US), the tip for the delivery person defaults to ten percent (10%) of your total, rounded up to the nearest $0.25 increment. For orders less than $20.00, the tip defaults to $2.00. You may adjust the tip amount by selecting from the tip dropdown in the Order Information section. Some restaurants do require minimum tips. In this case, the option to adjust a tip lower will not be allowed.
In the UK, the tip defaults to £0.00, but you may apply a tip if you so wish.
If you received a special promotion code, you can enter your promotion code in the Promotion Code box on Step 4 the right hand column of the website and click "Apply." The website will display the promotional price in the upper right corner.
Discounts and promotion codes on Seamless are not stackable - only one discount may be applied per order.
Your username is generally the email address that you first registered with.
To reset your password, click on the "Forgot Password" link. You will need to enter your registered email address and then you will receive an email from Seamless that allows you to reset your password.
To receive a username reminder, click on the "Forgot Username" link. You will need to enter your registered email address and then you will receive an email from Seamless with any username(s) associated with your email address.
If you are a Seamless corporate member, you can still use your company email address for your personal Seamless account, even if it's not linked to your corporate account.
No. Since the email address serves as the login name for your account, you are only allowed to have one Seamless account assigned to an email address. To have another account, you need to register another email address.
Yes, as a returning user, simply click the "Enter a new address" link under the address pull-down menu to enter a new address. Upon checkout, the new address will automatically save to your profile and display in the address pull-down on Step 1.
To manage your saved addresses, visit the Saved Addresses page.
Yup! When you are checking out your order, you'll have the option to save your instructions for later. If you do this, these instructions will always appear on all delivery orders to that address until you edit or remove them. You can also add special instructions to any of your saved addresses via the Saved Addresses page.
The restaurant service areas are determined by each individual restaurant. When browsing by neighborhood instead of a specific address, there is a chance that a restaurant does not deliver to your specific address. If you enter a specific address and zip/post code on Step 1, then you will be brought to all the restaurants that do deliver to you.
Select restaurants are offering Delicious Discounts. Every time that you order from one of the hundreds of participating restaurants for the first time on Seamless, a discount (either 10%, 15% or 20%) is automatically applied to your order. Just browse the list of restaurants on step 2 and look for the icon. The discount appears for all restaurants participating in the discount program that you haven't ordered from through Seamless yet.
Seamless' MenuPLUS restaurants have each provided enhanced menu content including photos, featured dishes, and more information all designed to help you make a more informed ordering decision. When you click to the step 2 restaurant list, just look for the restaurant photographs to find our MenuPLUS partners.
Logged in Seamless members can now like specific menu items from any restaurant. Simply click the little grey thumb icon next to the dish you like and the icon will become more prominent , serving as a handy reminder of what's good the next time you view that menu. Your vote also factors into calculating the "Most Liked Items" for that restaurant, another way of empowering the wisdom of the Seamless community to make a more informed eating decision.
We also created a new Liked Items page that keeps track of the little thumbs you've clicked on Seamless. From there you can start a new order with any of your favorite dishes, rate and review restaurants containing items you like, and even unlike items if you have a change of heart.
All of the restaurant ratings and reviews come from Seamless users just like you. If you have opinions about any restaurants listed on the site, be sure to rate and review them to help your fellow diners! Selected reviews will be posted to the site.
By default all restaurant star ratings appear in yellow and are based on the collective star ratings provided by our Seamless members. Once you rate a restaurant your star rating will appear in red so you can keep track of your favorite (and not-so-favorite) restaurants.
Every restaurant review submitted to Seamless is manually approved before it is published. Most reviews are published to the restaurant's page within 48 hours.
Tips for getting your reviews published:
In addition to the actual review that you write, we also publish supplementary information about you. This helps provide context to other members who are reading your review. This includes:
Your information will look like this:
Is a Favorite for breakfast on Saturday mornings at work. Food is always fresh and delicious--you'd think you were sitting at the restaurant. Highly recommend. Delivery guy is always smiling and very friendly.

There are many opportunities throughout the ordering process to add your rating and review of a restaurant. Wherever you see a restaurant's rating displayed, logged in users will be able to click on it to add a rating and write a review.
Yes! Head over to the new Ratings & Reviews management page, where you can view all of the restaurants you've rated and reviewed. You'll be able to edit your reviews, see which reviews have been published to the site, and start a new order from the restaurants listed.
Yes! With our bookmarked restaurants feature, you can now save any restaurant on Seamless to a private list that only you can see. To start bookmarking, head over to the Enter Your Info page (step 1), select an address, and click the view restaurants button to view a list of all restaurants that delivers to your address. Every restaurant will have a grey bookmark icon next to their name, which you can click to bookmark it. The icon will become more prominent , letting you know that your bookmark has been saved. You can access and manage the restaurants you've bookmarked on the Bookmarked Restaurants page.
Seamless is a demand-based system designed to bring you a wide variety of the best delivery restaurants in your area. If you know of another restaurant that you think would be a good addition, just suggest it to us and we'll do our best to add them on.
Submit a restaurant suggestion, of course! You can also tell the manager at the restaurant that you would love to be able to order from them on Seamless.
The ordering process is the same as a standard Seamless delivery order - enter your starting address (where you'll be picking the order up from), choose from the restaurants available for pickup, add items to your order from the menu (no need to worry about delivery minimums!), checkout and pay with your credit card, then go get your food (that means no delivery tip necessary!).
Important: You will need to bring your ID when picking up your order.
If your address doesn't fall into a walkable distance from any of the restaurants that offer pickup, you won't see any restaurants on Step 2. Not to worry, you still may be able to place delivery orders. If you'd like to request that Seamless start pickup ordering in your area email email@example.com and let us know.
Pickup orders will not be delivered - you have to pick up your food in person at the restaurant. Just arrive at the time listed in your confirmation email with your ID, sign the slip, and the food is yours. If you'd like to confirm that your food is ready before heading out, please feel free to call the restaurant.
Remember that you will need to bring your ID when picking up your order.
Catering is ideal when ordering for large groups of people. Whether for a group meal, an office meeting, holiday party, or special event like a birthday celebration or the big game, catering menu items and packages are designed to make group ordering easy and cost-efficient.
If you would like to change the delivery time simply click the "Edit" link that appears in the "Order Information" box next to "Delivery Time." You can also type in special instructions for an individual menu item in the "Special Instructions" box (e.g. include utensils or bring a tablecloth). Please also note any special delivery instructions in the "Special Delivery Instructions" box that appears on the step 4/Checkout page.
If you know of another restaurant that you would like to see, please suggest it to us and we'll do our best to add them. We are adding new caterering restaurants every week, so check back for updates.
At participating restaurants, you will have the option of making your Seamless order more eco-friendly at checkout. On the Checkout/Step 4 page, simply check the box that says "I'm eco-friendly! No plastic utensils or napkins, please" and the restaurant will exclude all extraneous packaging from your order.
You can also set your personal preference to make ALL of your orders to a saved address eco-friendly, when applicable. Navigate to the Saved Addresses page, available via the My Account link at the top of every page, and look for the Eco-Friendly section available for each of your saved addresses. Simply check this box and all of your future orders to that address will default to the eco-friendly option (when ordering from a participating restaurant). Either way, you will always have the option of changing your preference right before submitting your order.
All Seamless plastic delivery bags are "greener" than your average plastic bags (even the red ones). Since 2008 we've been distributing eco-friendly bags produced with an EPI additive, which makes the bag 100% biodegradable.
Please contact us by emailing email@example.com.
If you are having trouble navigating the website or have any other questions, please email customer care at email@example.com.


text: At present, the department's interpretation of T.C.A., Section 45-2-1102 requires that a bank's legal lending limit be calculated on the date a loan is made. The department recognizes that the frequency of a daily calculation places an unnecessary regulatory burden on the management of our banks. Thus, to simplify the calculation of capital for lending limit purposes and alleviate the burden of daily calculations, the department is changing its interpretation of said statute to permit banks to calculate their legal lending limit on a quarterly basis using Report of Condition data. Accordingly, the calculation should be performed at the end of each calendar quarter to determine the legal lending limit for the next quarter. For purposes of this Bulletin, the effective date of each calculation will be the earlier of the following dates: a) The date on which the bank's Consolidated Report of Condition and Income (Call Report) is submitted; or b) The date on which the bank's Call Report is required to be submitted. This Bulletin takes effect immediately. If you have any questions regarding this Bulletin, please contact either Assistant Commissioner Derek Carrier or Chief Administrator Jim Douthit at (615) 741-6013.

Some help with indexing please?
Hello. I am trying to understand indexing and i'm a bit stumped when it comes to joins.
I have two tables
A website table (Primary Key here is website_id)
A links table (Foreign Key here is website_id)
And every link in my links table belongs to a SINGLE website in the websites table so I perform a join on it
SELECT website.website_id, website.name, links.url FROM links INNER JOIN website ON website.website_id = links.website_id
Is that correct? If not what else would I need to index everything properly here in order to run the above query? Thank you

Wander through the Ramblas, visit the Sagrada Familia or enjoy the Spanish nightlife: Barcelona is the place to be for any tourist.
Barcelona is the perfect destination for art-lovers. After all, it is the city of Miró, Picasso and, above all, Gaudí. He changed the face of Barcelona more than anyone ever did, by building the Sagrada Familia, a magnificent church that is beyond description. In 1883, Gaudí started to build this architectural masterpiece, but it has not yet been completed due to lack of funds. Entrance fees to the church are being used to finance further construction.
Other sights in Barcelona include Park Guëll, which was designed by Gaudí and offers a marvellous view over the city; the Camp Nou Stadium, the most important football stadium and home of FC Barcelona; and Montjuïc, a hill with a large number of museums and the Olympic stadium. You can really soak up the Catalan atmosphere in the Ramblas, the beating heart of Barcelona.
After a long day of sightseeing in Barcelona you can definitely go and refresh at the Barceloneta, one of Barcelona's best-loved beaches. If you have been dreaming of a long break on a beach then you can choose to head north to the Costa Brava or south to the Costa Dorada. The best beaches of Catalonia are awaiting you and we promise you won't be disappointed.

What is the solution to the phenomenon of divorce.
Why always problems between the couple and the solution is divorce.
Is divorce is the only solution or is there other solutions.
Is the solution is divorce or reform.
What is the solution to the phenomenon of divorce.
We are looking for the truth to see all forms of impulsive divorce.
Is it a lack of respect between the two parties.
Or laws that give the right to women more than men
.This appeal to know the grounds for divorce.And not to give an opinion on to marry or not marry.
Mar 8 2013: There is no simple answer. Marriage is a religious act that has become controlled by civial laws. Cultural shifts have re-assigned roles. we enter the marriage like it was a fast food drive in ... instant marriage .. instant divorce ... we have made it all to easy. Relationships take work and are under constant maintenance.
The Catholic church which held marriage as high as could be expected ... but if you are rich and famous you can see the pope and get a divorce with the churches blessing.
I had a secretary who went to a marriage counselor who had been divorced six times .... he didn't know squat about marriage but he sure knew about divorce.
In summary: The right answer for you may not be the answer for anyone else. For me the answer is that marrage is never 50 / 50 .... it is 100 / 100 plus. Their is no his and hers only ours. It is not a mans job or a womans job it is a job that needs to be completed. You should marry your best friend and work to keep that friendship alive. Above all there must be mutual respect and trust.
I wish you well. Bob.
Barry Palmer
Mar 7 2013: Here is my proposal:
- +2
First, remove all mention of marriage and marriage relationships (wife, husband, spouse) from the law books.
For those couples who want their personal relationship to also be a legal relationship, let them draw up a contract that specifies EVERY aspect of their relationship. The very first section of the contract would be the consequences of divorce. The second section would detail a method for conflict resolution. If they want a monogamous relationship, the contract must specify the consequences of cheating. This would be a partial list for the rest of the contract:
Residence location and any limitations on future residences (city/country, sun/snow etc)
Residence limits with respect to size, yard size, traffic, distance to work, etc.
Finances - contributions and spending limits, a budget or a specific process to develop a budget
Division of labor at home; who does which chores and how often; standards for cleanliness etc.
Diet expectations - who cooks, how often; how often do you dine out or get pizza delivered
Sexual expectations
Intimacy expectations
Time budget - time spent with just each other, time with friends, time with each others' family, time alone, TV time, sports, etc.
Who gets to control the TV remote, how often
Physical fitness expectations and consequences
The contract would not take effect until both parties appear before a legal authority (who would have a law degree) and can demonstrate that they have a mutual understanding of every clause of the contract.
When people understand what they are actually doing when they get married, there will be far fewer divorces. I suspect there will be fewer marriages too.
Mar 7 2013: This is little more than a list of the things you personally, and perhaps selfish, find to be important to a relationship. Conspicuous in its absence is the very ingredient that many would incude at the top of their list, mention of children. Marriages produce families.Mar 7 2013: Thanks for your comments
Gail .
Mar 8 2013: The obvious solution is to make marriage a thing of the past.

But to look to your question of "why" divorce, look at yourself. Are you the same person you were 10 years ago? No, you are not. Neither are you now the person you will be in 10 years. If you marry today, your spouse will be a different person in 10 years. Sometimes we grow in different and incompatible directions.
Don't discount the role that our stressful, complex, money-centered social system has in the ability of marriages to be sustained. This has brought down a lot of marriages. The reasons given are many, but they all boil down to a marriage's being incompatible with expectations.
Also, don't forget to look at why some people choose to marry. Some fall in love with love. Some don't have a sense of self, so they expect a partner to complete them. Others want to "fix" someone who doesn't really need fixing - except in his/her eyes. Some want the economic advantage, and when economic disparity goes away, so does the purpose of the marriage. Some don't know the difference between an infatuation and love. Some think that life is always supposed to be carefree like it was before marriage. Some want to give their baby those things that our culture says is important, even if both parents know that marriage to one another is not a good fit. Some want to get out of their parents' house in a culturally acceptable way. Some want the respect that they think they will have when they enter into a culturally approved institution. Some believe that God wants them to marry someone of the same faith, and a selection from a narrow field is made, but age and maturity changes the underlying understanding.
I suspect that all divorces have their own reasons, as do the marriages that precede them. A strong marriage is hard work where work comes with rewards. Too many are not willing to do the work. IMO, our culture promotes both marriage and divorce because our culture promotes fear.
Mar 8 2013: I really enjoyed reading your insight into marriage.....having said that, I don't think the solution is to make marriage a thing of the past.

Most of us have enjoyed having parents who cared for us and were there when we needed them. Some of us are still enjoying our relationship with our parents and value the commitment they made to each other over half a century ago. Many today are succeeding at wonderful marriages because, like Bob says below, the marriage is like a friendship, and both individuals are working hard to keep it alive.
I don't think we should be too quick to get rid of marriage.Mar 7 2013: Being sold on romantic love and not unconditional love. Lets start selling unconditional love
Mar 7 2013: Thanks for your comments
Mar 7 2013: You are welcomeMar 7 2013: I used to be involved in a large number of divorces as a lawyer. I got to hate them - the divorces and the people getting them except the real adults. Some people grow apart and are smart enough to know it. To get a divorce and still be on talking terms is the sign of adults who are ready to move on in their lives. I respect those people. The sad thing about the others is they marry someone else and move on to make more lives miserable. Divorces are sort of like some snack chips - you can never have just one. There are ways to check for compatibility before you marry. Study Myers-Briggs personality tests. You can get guidance there. Look at some of the people you like being around, and after awhile you will realize that most of your other friends have similiar personalities. Thank you Carl Jung.
Mar 7 2013: Thanks for your commentsMar 7 2013: I somehow disagree with Pabrita and agree with Kate.
I disagree with Pabrita, because I don't think the institution of marriage itself is the problem. Yes, it has many flaws. Marriage rests on a historical foundation of ownership and transferal of property. There are high divorce rates, especially when women are able to leave a marriage that isn't working for them. And there is the U.S. controversy where right-wing conservatives define marriage in a way that disenfranchises the GLBT community.
But these flaws do not belong to the institution of marriage, they belong to us, the people who wield it. Speaking from a U.S.-perspective, marriage has improved significantly throughout our history - we now can have interracial marriages, women can leave unhealthy marriages, and in some states, GLBT people can also marry. We have decades (maybe even centuries) of research and wisdom to help strengthen our relationships. WIth these tools, even relationships that suffer massive betrayals can survive and grow into healthy relationships.
I agree with Pabritas in that the best solution is to not get married; at least, not until you're ready. Many couples who end in divorce (especially Kate's 65%) married before the age of 25, before they had the emotional maturity to handle the responsibilities of marriage. Many approach marriage as a way to force their partner to commit, or some other insecurity. Probably more in the spirit of Kate's comment, you can have a relationship that is just as legitimate and committed without jumping through the political/religious/social hoop that is marriage.
The solution to divorce isn't eliminating marriage, it's correcting our approach to marriage. We need to teach the next generation to hold off on marriage until they are ready for it, and to marry for the right reasons. And we need to teach them that when they run into those inevitable problems of marriage, to try to resolve them using all available tools *before* resorting to divorce.

Mar 8 2013: The benefits of divorce have been oversold.
- 0
While divorce may eliminate some problems, it can also unleash a series of traumatic events over which you may have little control.
Those contemplating divorce should ask themselves if their expectations regarding marriage are realistic. The media have pushed the image of a romantic relationship that culminates in a lavish wedding with a fairy-tale ending.
After the wedding, when high expectations go unfulfilled, the resulting disappointment can fuel conflict. As tensions build, a drama unfolds in which hurt feelings dominate emotions.
Love withers and, in time, is replaced by anger and hatred. Under such circumstances, some may feel that the only option is divorce. When this occurs, however, it is not because of some lack in the marriage arrangement itself; rather, it is because of the failure of one or both mates to live up to their wedding vows.
No marriage is perfect. There is alot to be said of individuals who stick to their wedding vows and try to work out their problems.

"The solution to the phenomenon of divorce"
is to recover our instinct of primary symbiosis!
Invalid happiness is mostly the culprit of divorce.

Do not forget that 40/100 families are the families of the province and sanctify marriage.Mar 7 2013: Where is the evidence that humans should mate for life?
Monogamous means one partner at a time.
See Pair bonding: "In biology, a pair bond is the strong affinity that develops in some species between a pair consisting of a male and female, or in some cases as a same-sex pairing, potentially leading to producing offspring and/or a life-long bond. Pair-bonding is a term coined in the 1940s[1] that is frequently used in sociobiology and evolutionary psychology circles. The term often implies either a lifelong socially monogamous relationship or a stage of mating interaction in socially monogamous species. It is sometimes used in reference to human relationships."
In other animals, such as praire voles, who mate for life, sex can still occur, although infrequently, outside the relationship. (I'll add a reference for this) This often is the cause of break up in modern human relationships.

Mar 7 2013: Thanks for your commentsMar 7 2013: The solution is striking down the institution of marriage.
Marriage is a social contract that has conditions not compatible to modern day aspirations of people. It has ceased to define relationship between two adults, trust and interdependence. Love and respect are possibly the least virtues in modern day marriages. It has necessities with regard to heir-ship of offspring and in some cases maintaining dynasties.
The most important aspect of marriage, that is starting a family demands some sacrifices of individual liberties that we are not ready anymore to commit. Even for India, which is deeply family oriented culture and traditional believer of holy union between couples, this is the reality so marriage in lot many cases are potential sources of suppressed debauchery and is just a license to keep on being disloyal to each other. I think that's a shame.

This story was updated at 6:40 p.m. on July 22, 2013.
Montgomery County Council and Executive Isiah Leggett will get a raise this fiscal year, along with county employees, but the next council and executive could be paid even more.
Every four years, a seven-member compensation committee convenes to evaluate the salaries of the council, the executive, the county sheriff and the state's attorney and to recommend how much those who will hold office after the next election should make.
The citizen committee's recommendation — if approved by the council — would not change pay for current county leaders, as that is prohibited by state law. But it will establish salaries for those elected in the November 2014 general election.
Regardless of what the committee decides for the future, the current crop of elected officials is slated for a pay raise this fiscal year, which started July 1, according to a council news release.
Currently, members of the all-Democratic council earn $104,022 annually. The council presidents receives an additional salary, for a total of $114,425.
Leggett (D) earns $180,250. Sheriff Darren Popkin (D) earns $154,000 and John McCarthy (D), the state's attorney, makes $199,000, according to a county news release and county salary data.
For council members, Leggett and McCarthy, their pay will go up at different points this fiscal year by whichever is lower, the average regional Consumer Price Index for a 12-month period, or 3.25 percent — which is the same amount the county approved as a cost of living increase for members of its general employees union, United Food and Commercial Workers/Municipal and County Government Employee's Organization local 1994.
At most, council members' salaries could increase approximately $3,381. Leggett's salary could go up as much as approximately $5,858 and McCarthy's as much as about $6,468.
Popkin also will get a salary bump this year. His pay will increase 2.1 percent — the amount approved for members of the police union, Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 35 — or the index, whichever is lower.
Popkin's salary could increase as much as $3,234.
The compensation committee is scheduled to issue its recommendations no later than mid-September. Residents have until Aug. 9 to comment on what their elected leaders will make next term.
Residents can e-mail comments to email@example.com or mail comments to Jean Arthur's attention at Compensation Committee, Montgomery County Council, 100 Maryland Ave., 5th Floor, Rockville, MD 20850.
Every member of Montgomery's current elected leadership either plans to run for re-election or is considering a different county office.
Popkin and McCarthy have filed to run again for their present posts, according to the Maryland Board of Elections.
Leggett has announced that he will seek re-election as executive. Councilman Philip M. Andrews (D-Dist. 3) of Gaithersburg has filed to run against Leggett for executive. Councilwoman Valerie Ervin (D-Dist. 5) of Silver Spring had formed an exploratory committee to run for executive, but has not publicly detailed her plans.
Other members of the council have indicated plans to run for their seats in 2014.

Posted in Dr. Ying Competition
Collin currently attends Cocoa Beach High School in Brevard County and is anything but your typical high school senior. Participating in the International Baccalaureate Program, Collin has had the opportunity to do and present scientific research since his middle school days. As a Melbourne Beach resident, he developed a love for the ocean and that love has inspired the research that he has entered in this year's Dr. Ying Science Competition.
His entry focuses on research into karenia brevis, the organism responsible for the Florida red tide. He has investigated and invented a new, simple and inexpensive method of detection for the most harmful brevetoxin in the red tides, PbTx-3. His ultimate goal is to stop the damage to our ecosystem from these harmful red tides. If successful, he could one day save millions of species of marine life plus positively impact Florida's fishing and tourism industries.
Collin has won numerous awards for past research, including the Discovery Channel Young Scientist Challenge's "Planet Green" Award in 2007 and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's "Taking the Pulse of the Planet" Award in 2009. He received a scholarship from the U.S. Navy in 2009 and in 2010 he completed an internship during the summer with the NOAA Center for Costal Environmental Health and Bimolecular Research in Charleston, NC. Collin won the Ying Competition in 2009 and 2010, and is looking forward to another exciting competitive experience.

The Student Farm has been a center for research in sustainable agriculture and food systems for over 30 years. With approximately 20 acres of land (including greenhouse space) under organic management, the farm's research fields and greenhouse facilities have proved to be ideal for agro-ecological experiments in areas such as biological control of insects, cover cropping, composting, crop resistance to pests and other aspects of sustainable agriculture.
Undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty are welcome to conduct experiments at the Student Farm. These range from relatively simple short term experiments for students wishing to get a sense of field research to multi-disciplinary, multi-year projects looking at complex agro-ecological phenomena under different management practices. Student Farm staff can assist students and faculty in diverse ways. One distinct feature of the Student Farm is that students conducting field research are encouraged and supported to participate directly in the management of the crops and systems that they are studying (e.g. students typically participate in all phases of growing the crops they are studying).
Current Research:
Current research at the Student Farm includes projects examining competition between weeds and three cover crop species, using California native plants to attract native pollinators to agricultural field and developing methods for in-season nitrogen assessment and management in organic vegetable production.

The CyberKnife is a non-invasive radio surgery system.
In some cases, the CyberKnife is a viable alternative to open surgery. That means no incision or scalpel. That means no blood loss and no anesthesia required for treatment. The CyberKnife presents fewer complications than traditional surgery such as infection, hemorrhage or nerve damage. The ease of treatment allows for a better quality of life during and after treatment.
The CyberKnife operates with incredible accuracy.
When receiving radiation therapy, surrounding healthy tissue may be damaged throughout the course of treatment. The CyberKnife utilizes intelligent robotics and targeted radiation beams to treat tumors anywhere in the body with pin-point precision. The ability for the system to automatically track, detect and correct for tumor and patient movement throughout the treatment minimizes the damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
The CyberKnife gives people a new hope.
Often times, a patient is faced with a tumor that is in a difficult-to-treat location or has a medical history that rules out surgery as an option. The CyberKnife allows for better access to hard-to-reach, larger or previously inoperable tumors. It can also be used in the treatment of lesions that have previously undergone the maximum allowed dose of traditional radiation therapy. The CyberKnife gives people a new hope in cancer treatment.
Schedule a Second Opinion Appointment
Advancements in technology have allowed physicians to approach the treatment of different medical conditions in various ways. It is very common and widely accepted to seek out a second opinion for your medical treatment. Treatment with the CyberKnife is often a useful compliment to existing tumor or lesion therapy planned for and provided by your current doctor. You can schedule a Second Opinion Appointment to evaluate whether or not CyberKnife treatment is a viable compliment to your existing therapies. Worried about having to switch from the care of your current doctor? CyberKnife treatments with Saint Louis University Hospital's CyberKnife Systems are operated under the guidance of SLUCare physicians. SLUCare CyberKnife physicians will work closely with your current doctor to provide CyberKnife treatment, while the primary navigation of your cancer care is still managed by your current doctor.

Sometimes a family member you chose to be unbiologically related to. They are there to create bucketlists with for planning what you are going to do over the summer. The relationship between you two doesn't matter on how long you have known eachother or whether you were born in the same hospital at the same time. It consists of whether that person is willing to walk into your world when the whole dang world walks out. Friends are the ones who notice if you're sad and ask you why; then they'll give you a hug and walk away. But a BEST BUD is one that asks you why your upset and keep bugging you on the subject until you are all sun-shiny again:D They call eachother names, crash quineneras or wedding parties with eachother, and just sometimes talk about how growing up sucks butt!!! They think of solutions of how they are going to be together in the same high school classes, near eachothers colleges, and being neighbors when buying a house. They just want to be there to hug eachother and laugh at the randomest things in a life that is utterly boring.
WARNING!!! BEST BUDS, come and go. Sometimes you have to be ready for the heartbreak.

After building a couple smaller RGB lamps, I decided I wanted to see how far I could take the concept. The control circuitry is basically the same, it's just a matter of using a beefier LED driver!
My finished lamp measures 30"x30" square and is 3.5" tall. It hangs 5.5" off the ceiling, and uses 9x 3W RGB LEDs controlled by a PIC 16F1829 microcontroller.
Originally the lamp had an attached control panel for color and speed adjustment. Then one day I found a perfect IR remote control with Power, R/G/B, and Up/Down buttons and even a built-in switchable backlight! I decided this would be a fun and functional addition so I wasted no time hacking the IR output signal and interfacing it to the controller.
The lamp starts out in white-light mode (like a normal ceiling light). At the press of a button, it switches to RGB Color Fading. From here, you can adjust the speed with the Up/Down buttons or even pause the color at any point in the RGB fading cycle.
Hopefully this instructable will give you some construction ideas or inspiration for your own large-scale RGB LED project!
Thanks, Tobias
Hi, Thanks for looking! To answer your question - the light from my lamp is pretty "sterile", although I didn't spend a lot of time trying to optimize for color temperature. I use this daily in a 14x16 ft. bedroom for getting dressed, etc and it works well. When it comes to reading, though, I prefer a desk lamp. I think it could work for a living room with more time/care spent on tweaking the color temperature more LEDs or better positioning. You can also use two sets of LEDs - buy some nice "Warm" ones for white-light mode, and use cheap RGB oness for different colors.
Again, thank you.
One uses LED strips (multicolor) : Rs.100 /meter
IR Remote + its receiver : Rs. 250
LED Strip Driver : Rs.250
Total Rs. 600 (padding amount to Rs.400) total Rs.1000
We can Get these Lighting Except the frame for $20 MAX isnt it ?
Awesome skill!
Corrugated cardboard actually did work well because it is fairly rigid and also very lightweight. To reduce heat concerns, the LEDs were each mounted on to heatsinks and elevated above the cardboard on plastic spacers to allow for airflow (see pics in Step 6).
I'm guessing in total you'd be looking at around $100-$125, not including the remote. (There is one of these GE remotes on Ebay right now, but it is priced at $84. That seems a little steep...)
I ended buying a power supply from Mouser (www.mouser.com). It is:
Part# 418-CFM60S300
Price: $34.25
(Instructable edited with this info)
Most of the supplies out there are 28V or 32V, but this one was right in the middle. Plus, it was very lightweight.
I would love to do this, great one! But, Im not sure if I know enough about micro controllers and circuits to attempt such a project yet
The lamp is capable of individual 10-bit brightness control for each color, so it can potentially produce millions of colors. Currently, though, the lamp color fade routine uses only 2 out of the three primary colors at any given time (see "PWM Control" section of step 5).
nerd1701 - you got me to thinking... I could potentially add another 10-bit counter to the code that will cycle the third color through the full 10-bit brightness scale. This would unleash the full potential of individual 10-bit RGB brightness control. I might just do that... I'll be sure to update the instructable if I do!
This should do a good job explaining the current color fade routine:
