The ceilings throughout our home are 95 inches or 2.4 meters high. Low indeed. Most of the house has wooden ceiling beams. I am trying to figure out a way to better “light up the house” and am in need of good suggestions.
In one room we've solved the problem with two floor lamps and a halogen lamp on the upright piano.
In another room I've 4 wall lamps (total eight 40 what bulbs) – but it still isn’t enough. But more importantly, it's in the kitchen that we need to have more light. The ceilings have wooden beams about 10 / 12 inches apart and I've put sheet rock between the beams. I've incased 3 decorative halogen lamps (transformer hidden above the sheet rock). They give off light but it’s not enough and in any case the lamps burn out at least once a year and cost nearly 10 US dollars each to replace. I’m sure they also consume plenty of electricity.
Ah, finally – I do need to mention that we’ve neon lighting under the cupboards – above the sink, the burners and above two work counters.
Please let me know if you need more (precise) information so to give me a detailed answer.
Thanks in advance for you help.

first of all id like to point out that i have googled the problem. ive looked at all the forums and so forth and i did read the manual (wich is toatally pointless. why do the make it? its a waste of paper! havnt they heard of global warming?)
ok heres the deal. i have a program called poser. everytime i run it the computer restarts.
this is what ive done: virus scan (avast). malware scan (adaware). thingy scan (programs found on forums where answers were given to people with similar problems). oh yeah and then apparently it can get too hot. ive downloaded "speed fan". it used to be at 89 C now its at 75 C and it still restarts.
it restarts every now and then with other programs (like adaware) and every now and then it works. however i have yet to identify the happy winds of fate which allow it to work. otherwise i would have made sure they were in effect all the time...
dont make your answers too advanced please. and if you can include links... liks rock
PS kicking it dosent help.

I used to eat a good amount of food and actually want to eat, but lately I have had no appetite and I have to force myself to eat, I just don't get hungry, so I generally try to eat two bowls of cereal a day a small snack, I am more willing to eat in the morning and it is harder for me to force myself to eat later in the day I am also gaining weight, not alot but my weight is slowly increasing, the only medication I am on is birth control for medical reasons, has any one else ever had this happen to them, could this be caused by the birth control? any thoughts?

I do not think that citizens having guns is wrong...in fact, there have been studies that show, in states where concealed firearms are evident, there are lower crime rates and less violent crimes because people protect themselves more. Also, the thought that you do not know who has a gun on them is scaring off criminals, period.
As for all of the guns being sold to the psychos, I think that there does need to be a more thurough, strict background search, as well as a pyschiactric evaluation to ensure that you are normal and can own a firearm.
I have always loved shooting; I love the sport and just find guns, well...cool. If you are trained and know what you are doing, then guns are okay and everyone is safe. Accidents are usually caused by the wielder, not the weapon itself.
What is your standpoint on private-ownership of firearms?

Who should start the season for the Oakland Raiders? Should they throw Russell right away into the mix to see if has a Vince Young's season, or should they wait and try McCown since he has the professional experience that could mean improvement to the bay area????

Yes, I'm happy. I am two and a half weeks along. It hasn't sunk in just yet. And I am beginning to wonder what to expect within the next few weeks...
So far, I am just really tired, and I have this sorta of 'tight' feeling at the bottom of my stomach, slightly feels like cramps before my period. I also have been up since 4 am with this dull headache that WILL NOT GO AWAY!
I am apprehensive and excited at the same time about what's to come....oh yeah, and this baby was very much planned by the way:)
