Tigers limping entering showdown with ChiSox

Associated Press Sports

CLEVELAND (AP) - The Detroit Tigers lost their manager, catcher and a crucial game in the AL Central race.

Now, the Tigers are hoping to quickly rebound from their sour Sunday after twice blowing leads to the Cleveland Indians.

Lonnie Chisenhall singled in the winning run with one out in the ninth inning to give Cleveland a 7-6 win - the Indians' first at home when trailing after eight innings in more than a year.

Tigers manager Jim Leyland was ejected and catcher Alex Avila hurt in a collision with Prince Fielder as Detroit dropped two games back in the AL Central. The Tigers go to Chicago to face the first-place White Sox on Monday.

"It was a good comeback," Leyland said. "There wasn't anything cheap about it. It was a heck of a ballgame. Give them credit. That's the way it goes. Turn the page and move on."

Before the game, Leyland said the makeup of Thursday's rainout with the White Sox would be huge since it is the last meeting between the rivals.

It is even bigger for the Tigers after Cleveland's comeback.

Jason Kipnis doubled off Jose Valverde (3-3) and scored the tying run on a one-out triple by Carlos Santana. Right fielder Don Kelly nearly made a leaping catch, but the ball dropped as he crashed into the wall.

Valverde then intentionally walked both Michael Brantley and Ezequiel Carrera to face Chisenhall, who lined the first pitch to right-center.

"You've got to get the ball to the outfield there," Chisenhall said. "They weren't walking guys to get to me, I'd like to think. They were trying to get the bases loaded and have the force out.

"It's definitely exciting. You like to win games like that."

Esmil Rogers (2-1) pitched one inning for Cleveland, an AL-worst 17-45 since the All-Star break, and just 11-37 since July 26.

Miguel Cabrera, with visiting Detroit fans chanting "MVP! MVP!" hit a three-run homer in the seventh to put the Tigers ahead 6-5. Cabrera connected off Joe Smith for a 402-foot drive.

But Valverde got his fifth blown save in 36 chances as he worked for the third day in a row.

"We were asking a lot of Valverde," Leyland said. "He had better velocity than he had the last couple of nights. We talked to him before the game and he said he was good to go."

Valverde credited the Indians.

"I made good pitches, but they hit them," he said. "I want to be perfect, but I am not. Now, let's go to Chicago and win."

Cleveland scored two unearned runs in the fifth for a 4-3 lead after trailing 3-0. Leyland got tossed for arguing the play that put the Indians ahead.

With the score tied at 3, first-base umpire Brian Knight ruled shortstop Jhonny Peralta's throw trying for an inning-ending double play was too late as Brantley scored from third base.

First baseman Prince Fielder hopped off the bag and yelled and Leyland came out to disagree. Cabrera was restrained by other umps from going across the diamond from his third base position to join in.

Earlier in the inning, Leyland disputed a call by Knight that also kept Detroit from turning a double play.

"They were unbelievable bang-bang plays," Leyland said. "At this time of year with the importance, you get a little more excited. Obviously, I thought they were out. The umpire saw it differently."

Avila left in the sixth after colliding with Fielder. Avila was about to catch Santana's foul pop along the warning track in front of Detroit's dugout when Fielder, listed at 275 pounds, ran into him. The ball dropped and so did Avila.

"It looked like a knockout punch," Leyland said. "The elbow got him in the jaw."

Leyland said trainers told him Avila has a sprained jaw, no concussion, and could possibly play Monday. Leyland said he likely was going to rest Avila anyway against White Sox lefty Jose Quintana.

Given new life, Santana got an RBI single on another questionable call by Knight. With Asdrubal Cabrera on second, Santana hit a grounder between third and short that Miguel Cabrera snared with a dive. His high throw from his knees pulled Fielder off the bag, but the first baseman tagged Santana. Knight ruled safe as Asdrubal Cabrera kept running and scored.

Fielder and acting manager Lloyd McClendon both protested.

"It was a weird game," Tigers starter Rick Porcello said. "Whether we get those calls or not is tough to say. It was frustrating, but you have to deal with it and push on."

Detroit took a 2-0 lead in the first off Ubaldo Jimenez. Both runs scored as Brennan Boesch was safe with a bases-loaded infield single when Jimenez fielded his slow tapper, but threw low and late to first for an error.

Cleveland loaded the bases on three walks in the first, but Porcello got Russ Canzler to hit the ball back to him and made the play for the third out.

Delmon Young, hitting .167 (5 of 30) in the Tigers' previous eight games, hit an RBI single to make it 3-0 in the third.

Porcello gave up three hits in the fourth as Cleveland got within 3-2. Shin-Soo Choo's two-run bloop single to left drove in Canzler, who had singled and came after a two-out double by Jack Hannahan.

NOTES: Cleveland won the season series, 10-8. ... Tigers CF Austin Jackson was a late scratch because of a sore left knee. He got hurt trying to make a catch Saturday when he ran into the center-field fence. "I definitely anticipate playing (Monday)," Jackson said. "We'll see. It hurt too much today." ... Peralta played his 73rd straight game without an error, longest streak by a Tigers shortstop since at least 1957. Eddie Brinkman had a 72-game streak in 1972. ... Miguel Cabrera has hit .369 (7 of 19) with 2 homers and 7 RBIs off Smith. ... Jimenez, 1-9 in 13 starts since the All-Star break, still has a 9-16 record and avoided becoming the first Indians pitcher to lose 17 games since Tom Candiotti went 7-18 in 1987. ... Indians 1B Matt LaPorta was twice shaken up after crashing into a railing while trying to catch foul popups in the same at-bat by Tigers 2B Omar Infante in the ninth. He stayed in the game.

Why Gambling Can Be More Destructive to Your Health Than Drugs or Alcohol

When you think of physically destructive addictions, gambling probably doesn?t even make your top five. With the world?s abundance of bath salts, pharmaceutical pills and white powders, gambling can seem almost harmless in comparison. But according to a recent article on Alternet, gambling is one of the most physically dangerous addictions that exists. How can that be?

The? problem lies in the fact that gambling, unlike drug or alcohol addiction, comes with no physical precursors to alert the user that he's in serious trouble. According to Alternet, addicts remain unencumbered by physical ailments, so their ability to cause financial devastation is infinite. And therein lies the heart of the problem; that unfettered financial destruction is a motivating factor for the addiction?s most dangerous characteristic?an exceptionally high suicide rate.

Alternet reports that the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) estimates that about 80% of those with a gambling addiction consider suicide, while one in five actually attempts it. That's roughly twice the rate of other addictions.

Though gambling often comes with a high incidence of secondary issues such as as depression and anxiety, the NCPG has concluded that the most telling precursor of an addict?s impending suicide attempt is the size of their debt.

NCPG reports that compounding the issue is the drive addicts feel to keep their problems a secret, further isolating themselves from their loved ones. With gambling, it's not just the addiction they need to keep under wraps, but the financial deceptions they've most likely perpetrated against their family, such as gambling away their kids? college funds, or draining their spouse?s retirement account. And though there is recovery, it?s not the same as it is for other addictions.

Keith Whyte, NCPG?s Executive Director explains to Alternet, ?If you stop drinking, you can still go get a job. But once you?ve got a gambling debt twice your annual income, it?s hard to come back from that. In our society, living without money is a lot harder than living without alcohol.?

Still, recovery does happen and help is available. Breaking the cycle of deception and secrecy is key, according to the NCPG. If consumers are looking for help, the agency can refer those in need to local treatment programs as well as provide ongoing support for those recovering?from the disease.

Ecologist: Genetically engineered algae for biofuel pose potential risks that should be studied

Ecologist: Genetically engineered algae for biofuel pose potential risks that should be studied

Monday, August 20, 2012

Algae are high on the genetic engineering agenda as a potential source for biofuel, and they should be subjected to independent studies of any environmental risks that could be linked to cultivating algae for this purpose, two prominent researchers say.

Writing in the August 2012 issue of the journal BioScience, the researchers argue that ecology experts should be among scientists given independent authority and adequate funding to explore any potential unintended consequences of this technological pursuit.

A critical baseline concern is whether genetically engineered algae would be able to survive in the wild, said Allison Snow, professor of evolution, ecology and organismal biology at Ohio State University and lead author of the paper.

"If they're grown in big, open ponds, which is mainly what were talking about, could the newer types of microalgae get out into nature and mingle? We need to know if they can survive and whether they can hybridize or evolve to become more prolific when they get out of a controlled environment," Snow said.

"If they can survive, we also need to know whether some types of genetically engineered blue-green algae, for example, could produce toxins or harmful algal blooms - or both," Snow noted.

And because algae are so small and could be dispersed by rough weather or wildlife activity, biologists worry that any transgenes they contain to enhance their growth and strength could be transferred to other species in a way that could upset a fragile ecosystem.

"The applications are new and the organisms are less well-known. They range from being very tame 'lab rats' that won't survive in nature to wild organisms that can presumably cross with each other unless some measures are taken to prevent crossing. It's a very new situation," Snow said.

Snow co-authored the article with aquatic ecologist Val Smith, a professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Kansas.

Snow has a history in this area of research. She led a study in 2002 that was the first to show that a gene artificially inserted into crop plants to fend off pests could migrate to weeds in a natural environment and make the weeds stronger. She also has served on national panels that monitor and make recommendations about the release of genetically engineered species into the environment.

There are a lot of unknowns about this area of research and development in microalgae, and that's largely because algae don't have the breeding history that, say, corn and soybeans have, Snow said. In addition, few details are publicly available because much of this information remains confidential as businesses compete to be the first to commercialize their genetically altered algae.

"We're hoping to reach several audiences - including ecologists, molecular biologists and biotech business owners - and bring them together. There's a community of people like me who study genetically engineered crops and how they interact with the environment, and we need to get this started with algae.

"There's a lot of hype and speculation about algae as a biofuel source, and it's hard to gauge exactly what's going on. We see many indications, especially funding, that private companies and the government have decided this is important and worth pursuing," Snow said. "So much will depend on the economics of it. Whether you can get a lot of energy out of algae depends on these breakthroughs with biology, technology, or both."

In the same way that certain crop plants are bred with genes to help them repel pests and tolerate harsh conditions, different species of algae are likely being genetically engineered to grow rapidly because mass quantities of these tiny species will be needed to produce adequate fuel supplies.

The authors recommend, for starters, a comparative examination of genetically engineered algae strains intended for large-scale cultivation with their natural counterparts to determine the basic differences between the two. They also acknowledged that genetically engineered algae might be equipped with so-called "suicide genes" that would make it impossible for the algae to survive a release into the wild.

"If such precautions are taken in lieu of thorough environmental assessments, more information should be required to ensure their long-term success and to prevent (genetically engineered) algae from evolving to silence or overcome biological traits that are designed to kill them," the authors wrote.

Snow also noted that before genetically engineered crop plants can be commercialized, they are grown in various outdoor environments to test their endurance under different conditions. The permitting process for these plots helps inform the government and the public about these agricultural efforts. Even if the exact genes used to engineer these crops are protected as proprietary information, the species and new traits they carry are made public.

"With algae, this can all happen in a greenhouse because they're so small. That means they're not really accessible for scientists to find out what companies are working with, and it's going to be like that until very late in the process," Snow said.

And to be clear, Snow said she and Smith are not looking to hinder these efforts.

"We're trying to be constructive and get the word out, to get the conversation going," she said.

Managing Paper Clutter for Greater Productivity :: Thinking Home ...

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I?ll admit I?ve lost my share of productivity to paper clutter. When my desk gets overtaken by bills and memos, it becomes hard to find what I?m looking for and to be focused.

However, by finding a system that works for me, I have been able to dramatically straighten things out keep clutter within reason. I?m going to share some tools and tricks I?ve incorporated.

Prohibit Loose Papers on your Desk

I keep all papers on my desk within a two-tiered paper sorter.

The top holder is my inbox, where things go before I know what to do with them. I?m free to dump anything here if I?m especially busy or don?t want to organize just yet.

The other level holds my ?Current Papers,? which are papers I need to complete tasks.

Papers I need to keep, but which aren?t immediately necessary, get digitized or filed in a filing cabinet.

To make this system work, I?ll comb through my inbox each day. Everything I process is disposed of, addressed right away (e.g. paying a bill), moved to my current box, or filed away. Nothing ever goes back into the inbox.

Reduce External Paperwork

You keep things neater for yourself by reducing the paperwork that enters your house or that you simply don?t need to keep.

Remove yourself from junk mailing lists with tools like the iPhone/Android app Paper Karma. Or check out this tutorial on how to stop junk mail. http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-501083_162-20061441.html

Consider incorporating a document scanner into your workflow. While you may want to keep paper copies of tax records and signed documents, you can digitize handouts, fliers, and business cards.

If replacing your paperwork with digital tools sounds intimidating, you may want to consider making yourself a Windows or Mac expert. You?ll find that once you?re familiar with these systems and their so-called ?advanced? shortcuts, they?re far better to work with than analog tools.

Eliminate Paper for Lists, Reminders, Notes

If you?re using post-it notes and legal pads to take down ideas, reminders, and notes, it?s time to kick the habit.

Instead, make the conversion to a note-taking app like Evernote or Microsoft OneNote, and perhaps a to-do app like Remember The Milk or Outlook.

These tools make it easier to create notes, to store them, and to retrieve them. It?s the best of all worlds.

That said, consider a reusable writing surface like a board made of glass for writing down information you want to keep highly visible.

And if you really love your post-it notes, you can place them here instead of the edges of your computer monitor.

Make it Easy on Yourself

Use a system that works for you.

If you?re right-handed, make sure your paper sorter is on your right-hand side within reach. And if your trash and recycling aren?t where you can super easily reach them, you?ll be less diligent about using them.

Play around and rearrange if need be. The one-time investment of optimizing your work space can pay off over the following days, months, and years.

Raising Kids The Green Way | Comunicate de presa

Vegans exempt animal items from their way of life. This is simple enough for committed older vegans, but how to raise a kid with no milk, ice cream, chocolate, or candy? In todays, predominantly meat-dependent and animal style crazed world, it is surely a challenge for vegan parents to raise their children. Fortunately, the years brought an abundance of details about vegan style, vegan shoes, vegan recipes, vegan lifestyle, and veganism. All that vegan parents need right now are determination and creativity to encourage their young children to take up the vegan way of life. The first hurdle vegans have to face is the query of feeding their young children. There are lots of obtainable food selections in the market place today for vegan fare. Vegan recipes are not just salads they extend to casseroles, baked dishes, and even desserts. Vegan ice creams, smoothies, and candies are now offered in the market. These items taste just as great as the classic dairy products minus the animal abuse. Children getting raised on vegan diets wont really feel any different from non-vegan children. The trick is to incorporate substitutes for well-liked kiddie treats so vegan youngsters wont feel out of spot with their non-vegan peers. Vegan dieticians advocate substituting tomato sauce with meat substitutes for regular meat sauces. There is a range of soy cheeses and flavored soy milk drinks that are totally vegan without having sacrificing flavors. Fruit waffles and juices are most welcomed treats. Meat substitutes in pork, beef, poultry, or fish flavors are accessible. Vegan youngsters would not miss out on the joys of junk food, except that theirs wont result in them acne and make them healthier. ?Junk? foods like popcorn, baked potato and vegetable chips, sweetened dried fruits, raisins, and fruit chips are well-known alternatives. Beverages like fruit smoothies and fruit juices are deliciously sinful enough to be thought of junk food. Nonetheless, children are less complicated to manage than teenagers, more so when theyre vegans. There are the fashion trends to reckon with: that trendy leather jacket, the fur scarf, or the chic leather boots everybody is talking about. A teenager must have them. Remind them if theyre genuinely up to wearing dead animal skins on their body and then get them some enviable vegan style items. There are boutiques that sell exclusively vegan apparel. Vegan online shops also have substantial, not to mention, affordable and chic choices for vegan shoes, vegan clothes, vegan jackets, and even vegan accessories. Vegan cosmetics are also available and they have been confirmed to be much better than the ones that are animal-tested and made with animal oils. After all, slim and fit vegan bodies deserve fashionably gorgeous vegan clothes. natural moisturizer Vegan family assistance groups assert that proper education and information about animal rights and abuse is critical. Understanding the vegan lifestyle tends to make managing and raising vegan kids easier. When they are aware and informed, children are surprisingly easy to deal with. They do make their own options, but with info, they usually make the correct choice. So they strongly advise starting vegan families to encourage each and every other and educate their children to make them understand why is it very good to be vegan. With understanding, the kids grow to be cooperative and healthier, and the family members stays together longer. natural moisturizer

Gunman in Texas shootout fired more than 65 rounds

Associated Press

Posted on August 18, 2012 at 1:03 PM

HOUSTON -- Police say a gunman who was among three people killed in a shootout at a home near Texas A&M University earlier this week fired more than 65 rounds during the incident.

New details about the shooting in College Station were made public Friday as police released a timeline of Monday?s deadly incident.

Police found four weapons in the home of the gunman, Thomas Alton Caffall III, after he was killed. They included a handgun Caffall removed from a constable who was killed. Also found in the home were a sniper rifle, an assault rifle and a bolt-action rifle.

Police say Caffall fatally shot Brazos County Constable Brian Bachmann and bystander Chris Northcliffe. He also wounded three officers and a female bystander.

Funerals for Bachmann and Northcliffe are set for Saturday.

Financial Tip of the Day:Read Your Monthly Credit Card Statements

By Drew Kessler

If you are using a credit card you should read your statements when they arrive every month.? It?s a good habit to keep all charge receipts.? Put them into a folder when you get home from shopping. When your statement arrives, check the statement against the receipts. This way you can make sure that all of the charges are yours. You also can account for the charges by categories in your budget rather than by having one large expense called ?credit card.?

If there are charges that you are certain neither you nor anyone else in your family have made you should dispute the transaction as described on the back of the statement.?The law requires that disputes be submitted in writing to the financial institution that issued the card.?You can usually request to see a copy of the transaction slip as a starting point.? You should not be charged interest or late fees for that item while the situation is being resolved.

Your monthly statement also provides information such as your interest rate and fees that may have been assessed on your account.?Check these out. You may be paying a higher rate of interest than you thought you were.?

If you purchased something at a promotional interest rate, make sure you check the bottom of the statement to find out what interest is being charged on what portion of your charges.? Make sure the card issuer is applying the promotional rate correctly.?If you have questions, call the card issuer at the number provided on the statement.

Houston tribute, obscenities highlight BET Awards

With all the star power at the BET Awards ? Kanye West, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Beyonce and Samuel L. Jackson, to name a few ? the most stirring moment came not from a superstar, but from the mother of one.

Whitney Houston's mother Cissy provided the emotional highlight of Sunday's ceremony as she sang "Bridge Over Troubled Water" in tribute to her late daughter, leaving audience members like Beyonce and Soulja Boy in tears.

Mariah Carey opened the tribute, and her voice wavered as she told stories about Houston. She recalled the last time she saw Houston last year, and how the two laughed and gossiped together.

"I miss my friend," Carey said. "I miss hearing her voice and laughter."

R&B singer Monica was vocally top-notch as she sang "I Love The Lord," a gospel song once sang by Houston; Brandy sang two upbeat Houston hits, "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" and "I'm Your Baby Tonight." Chaka Khan blazed the stage with "I'm Every Woman," which Houston remade. Gary Houston, Whitney's brother, also performed; and Houston's "Waiting to Exhale" cast mates ? Angela Bassett, Lela Rochon and Loretta Devine ? also honored the singer.

But it was Cissy Houston's soaring performance that brought the audience to their feet, and had many dabbing their eyes. The tribute came five months after Houston's death: She died the night before the Grammy Awards of an accidental drowning complicated by heart disease and cocaine use.

As compelling as that moment was, the show was also defined by its low points: Entire segments of performances, from Nicki Minaj to Rick Ross, were muted out due to foul language and obscenities, though several vulgarities were heard on air.

It started during the opening number by West's G.O.O.D. music group, which included Big Sean, Pusha T and 2 Chainz. There were long moments of censored silence when the rappers performed "Mercy," though not all the offending words were bleeped out. Moments later, Jackson, the show's host, was joined by Spike Lee as they did a comedic version of Jay-Z and West's hit song "... In Paris," to laughs.

"Two distinguished Morehouse men," Lee joked after the performance, referencing the alma mater of the two.

The censor police also worked overtime when Rick Ross performed with his Maybach Music Group and during Minaj's performance and acceptance speech for best female hip-hop artist. Minaj's win was her third consecutive time taking the prize.

"I really, really appreciate BET for keeping this category alive, and I appreciate all the female rappers doing their thing, past, present and future," she said, before uttering an obscenity.

Best gospel winner Yolanda Adams, who also performed, gently took some of her peers to task, urging them to act mature and use their fame wisely.

"We need all of y'all," she said onstage. "I'm saying the world needs everyone in this room. Please make sure that you use your gift responsibly, 'cause we're watching. Our babies are watching, and they want to be like us."

West, the most nominated act of the night with seven, and Jay-Z won the ceremony's top prize, earning video of the year for "Otis." They also won best group.

Beyonce was the second most nominated act with six. She won video director of the year (along with Alan Ferguson) and best female R&B artist and thanked the genre and her female influences.

"I fell in love with music by listening to R&B. It's the core of who I am," she said, giving special thanks to Lauryn Hill, Mary J. Blige and "Whitney Houston, my angel."

When she lost video of the year to Jay-Z and West, she playfully hit her husband and laughed. The joking continued: Moments later, as West was giving his acceptance speech, Jay-Z interrupted him and said: "Excuse me Kanye, I'm gonna let you continue, but ...," and the audience erupted with laughter, recalling West's infamous interruption of Taylor Swift's MTV Video Music Awards speech a few years back.

Chris Brown was also a double winner, picking up his second consecutive win for best male R&B artist, and the "Fandemonium" award for a third time.

Brown also performed in his first televised appearance since the New York City nightclub brawl between his entourage and Drake's. Brown, his girlfriend, his bodyguard and NBA star Tony Parker were among those injured in the June 14 encounter, where bottles were thrown.

Drake didn't show, despite being nominated.

The tone of night fluctuated frequently, as the show shifted from hotly anticipated performances to solemn moments to irreverence. Usher performed his groove "Climax," and Minaj sported a blonde wig with pink tips as she performed the songs "Champion" and "Beez In the Trap," which featured 2 Chainz.

D'Angelo returned to the television spotlight with his first performance in years as he attempts a comeback.

The night also featured some tributes to deceased greats: Chante Moore performed a medley of Donna Summer's hits and Valerie Simpson sang a song in honor of her husband and writing partner Nick Ashford. Don Cornelius, Dick Clark and Hal Jackson were remembered. Even West offered tributes: after his performance, he name-dropped Rodney King and Whitney Houston in a verse that got cheers from the crowd, including his girlfriend, Kim Kardashian.

Presenters included Taraji P. Henson, Tyler Perry, Kerry Washington and Jamie Foxx, who wore a T-shirt that had a picture of Trayvon Martin, the Florida teen killed by neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman.

Frankie Beverly featuring Maze were honored with the lifetime achievement award, and they were serenaded with performances by Tyrese, Faith Evans and Joe. Rev. Al Sharpton received the humanitarian award, and urged the crowd to vote this November.

"This election is not just about Obama, this is about your momma," he said.

Kitchen Style for the Serious Cook | At Home with Kim Vallee

photo:?Deulonder Domestic Architecture?(kitchen 1)

You see plenty of pretty kitchens in magazines and online. Unfortunately, some kitchens are more beautiful than useful. I am interested by kitchens that are practical and beautiful. I found several ideas when I looked at the portfolio of Deulonder Domestic Architecture. They are?is a Spanish interior design studio that cater to passionate cooks. Their kitchens fill the needs of people who really cook in their kitchen and who love to have guests over while they cook.

photos: Deulonder Domestic Architecture (kitchen 2)

One common denominator in their design is how they juxtapose three main areas: the kitchen, the dining room and the butler?s pantry/serving area.

The English Home Restaurant-Style Kitchen

photo:?Deulonder Domestic Architecture?(kitchen 1)

This is unusual kitchen and dining room layout works if you like to entertain or have a large family.?The kitchen itself is a mix between a galley-style kitchen and a L-shaped plan. Deulonder?imagined a kitchen for a large family living on the outskirts of London or Boston.?Let?s look at the ideas to steal in this stunning kitchen and dining area designed by?Deulonder?for?Casa Decor Barcelona 2011.

photo:?Deulonder Domestic Architecture?(kitchen 1)

For one thing, the fact that the kitchen/ prep / serving areas are wrapped around the dining room means that you can hire staff without?jeopardizing?the intimate mood of your dinner.

Secondly, you have to admire the efficiency of this kitchen.?It is equipped for serious cooking. You have one big sink per prep area; which means you are never on someone else toes. There is a?two-oven, four burner Viking stove with a grill and a?teppanyaki. And there are plenty of the storage shelves or holes to store your large platters and baking sheets! I?m jealous!

photo:?Deulonder Domestic Architecture?(kitchen 1)

The third great feature are the glass walls. Without them, the dining room would be very dark. On a bright sunny day, I imagine myself serving brunch in winter and feeling warm. Another advantage is that they cook can see what is happening with the diners. If you need to keep a wall divides your dining room from your kitchen, you could examine how you can?incorporate?a big window inside your wall.

If you are still convinced that it is an amazing space, look at this view from the dining room.

For Outdoor Entertaining

I like the room interactions?of this outdoor entertaining heaven space created by Minim, another Spanish interior design studio. This project was also presented at also presented at?Casa Decor Barcelona 2011.

photos: Luis Sanchez for Minim

Here a wine pantry is located between the kitchen and the terrace. You can bypass the wine pantry to access the terrace from the kitchen.?This means that you can prepare your wine service out of sight and keep everything at the right temperature if you lounge outside.

Who is the Highest Paid Actress in Hollywood?

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the richest of them all? The answer might surprise you.

In its annual list of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood, Forbes has revealed that the new Snow White herself sits atop the rankings. Come on, Kristen Stewart, there's a reason to smile!

According to the magazine, Stewart has pulled in $12.5 million for each of the last two Twilight Saga films, the same amount as co-stars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.

Combine that figure with her turn this summer in Snow White and the Huntsman and Stewart made $34.5 million between May 2011 and May 2012.

Factoring in upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work, here is a look at the top 10 highest-paid female stars in that time period:

1. Kristen Stewart, $34.5 million
2. Cameron Diaz. $34 million
3. Sandra Bullock, $25 million
4. Angelina Jolie, $20 million
5. Charlize Theron, $18 million
6. Julia Roberts, $16 million
7. Sarah Jessica Parker, $15 million
8. Meryl Streep, $12 million
9. Kristen Wiig, $12 million
10. Jennifer Aniston, $11 million
