Room layout1/31/2024 ![]() Again, you can adjust manually to get your exact sizes needed.įrom there, you’ll move to the Furnish tab, and can search for products in the various stores’ product listings or SKUs. There is also an Add-Ons option to allow you to drop in some basic window and door options. Under the Build tab, you can select pre-made room shapes and adjust the wall sizes manually. But essentially, you’ll start by creating your room with the dimensions you took in the step above. I’m not going to offer a full tutorial because I’m still learning the process (and it’s fairly simple to use once you play around with it). There are some limitations (and not all products are available to drop into the 3D view), but I could quickly tell where I need to make adjustments in my mental plans. Not necessarily super lifelike 3D renderings.īut, if you prefer another retailer, that’s okay! Simply find something from their expansive offerings that has a similar vibe (or even just similar dimensions) to help visualize how furniture and accessories will fit in a space. Since this tool is much more simplified, I find it great for quickly figuring out placement, sizing, spacing, etc. I felt like I struck gold because you can quickly throw in a room’s dimensions and then drop in furniture directly from all the Pottery Barn and Williams Sonoma brands (including kid’s items and West Elm)! As most of you know, we have a lot of Pottery Barn furniture so it made it super easy for me to drop in the exact furniture we already own to see how and where it would fit. Over the weekend, I found this free room planner. You’ll want to collect all of these measurements and notes before moving on to the room layout planner step. That includes the overall room size, but also placement and size of things like doors and windows or other important room features. I like to walk around each room with a notebook and grab helpful measurements. It’s now Kurtis’ favorite little gadget, so it would probably make a great Father’s Day/Mother’s Day/birthday gift for anyone that likes projects! It was perfectly accurate (down to 1/16th of an inch) and in some cases with longer walls, even more accurate because you didn’t have to account for a drooping tape measure! I also love that you don’t need two people to quickly get accurate measurements. That is, until this past weekend, and it may very well be one of my favorite finds ever! That might be a bit dramatic, but it certainly makes grabbing room measurements quick and easy! Kurtis was a skeptic at first, so we had to verify our first several measurements with a “real” tape measure. I actually ordered this laser tape measure shortly after we moved to Florida and never used it. Rather, when it comes to general layouts, it’s helpful to get as close as possible, but I wouldn’t stress about it being perfect and just know there is a small margin of error. I would argue they don’t need to be 100% accurate (unless you’re ordering something like inside-mount window treatments or need furniture sized perfectly for a wall or niche). So, it becomes more critical to do some planning before selecting furniture! For example, two of our upstairs bedrooms (mirror images of each other) have windows on two walls and doors on the other two walls, for a total of three windows and three doors in a 12′-ish by 13′-ish room! I’ll be using this example to walk through some helpful tools I’ve used recently to help with planning a space! Where To Start With A Furniture Layout Floor Planįirst and foremost, measurements of the space(s) you’re designing are critical. One of those similarities is that, although the rooms are decent size on paper, many have a number of windows and doors that really limit furniture layout options. Our new build has a lot of similarities to our Omaha home, on a smaller scale. You can read my full disclosure policy here. This post contains affiliate links for your shopping convenience. With that, I love to use free and easy room layout planners that help me visualize (and make sure items will fit)! Today I’ll walk through a few I’ve used to give ideas on how you may find them helpful too! Now that sheetrock is going up at our new build, I was able to get official measurements of several of the spaces so we can begin planning furniture layout. This can especially be beneficial before ordering a large piece of new furniture or during room renovations or the building process. I’m jumping into with a rather impromptu post about a really cool (and free!) tool I found Sunday night! It got me thinking that now may be a great time to share a few tips, tricks and software that I use to help with room designs. Details on using a few free and easy room layout planner options to help you plan and design rooms in your home!

Google trends 20211/31/2024 ![]() It continued to gain global attention-by 2006, Hurricane Katrina was still in the top five trending news searches. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina ranked second in the most searched category across the globe. Hurricanes are a particularly trendy word, showing up almost half the time-in eight of the 20 years. Natural Disasters are a key trend throughout this data set as well. This transition nods to a larger shift in media, as digital has gradually overtaken traditional media as the dominant form of entertainment. And in 2014, Meme emerged as a top trending category. ![]() In the early 2000s, pop culture icons like Britney Spears, Eminem, and Jennifer Lopez flooded the trending searches, and traditional media forms like TV shows and Movies dominated the mass media categories.īut by 2011, YouTube stars like Rebecca Black started to make their way on the trending search lists.

Shell takes big writedown1/31/2024 ![]() Shell also said it intended to set a stricter target to reduce the net carbon footprint of its energy products by 30% by 2030, from 20% currently, and aim for a cut of 65% by 2050, from 50% at present. BP made a similar announcement in February. The Anglo-Dutch company told investors in April that it intended to stop adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere by 2050. “While neither Shell nor BP will be going anywhere soon, their importance as dividend payers will likely diminish relative to other sectors, and yield-hungry investors need to be prepared for this eventuality.'' “In a world of falling oil demand and a bigger push towards renewables, these energy titans increasingly look like creatures from another era, something which should give investors pause for thought,'' said Chris Beauchamp, chief market analyst at IG. Shell profits drop on shale write-down and Nigerian woes Royal Dutch Shell profits dropped 60pc to 2.4bn (£1.6bn) in the second quarter after drilling of its shale oil assets in North America. Shares in the company dropped 2.5% on the news. On Tuesday, it was trading near $41 a barrel. Shell predicted prices for Brent crude, the international oil benchmark, would be at $50 dollars a barrel in 2022, having earlier predicted a price of $60 a barrel. price of oil went below zero in April for the first time ever. With storage facilities filling up, the U.S. Supply of oil and gas was particularly high when the outbreak began, creating a perfect storm for the industry. There is little need in aviation for fuel, for example, since most planes are grounded. Shell said it will continue to adapt to ensure the business remains resilient, as the industry seeks to shift its focus away from fossil fuels.The pandemic has hit the wider energy industry hard because it has placed onerous limits on business, travel and public life. The change to the Anglo-Dutch behemoth's outlook comes amid a sweeping review of its operations after chief executive Ben van Beurden in April announced plans to cut greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. Shell expects fuel sales to have slumped 40pc in the three months to the end of June due to a sharp fall in consumption as a result of global travel restrictions. Mr Parker said: "Within this writedown, Shell is giving us a message about stranded assets, just like BP did a few weeks ago." Royal Dutch Shell Plc said it will write down between 15 billion and 22 billion in the second quarter, as the company gave investors a wider glimpse of just how severely the coronavirus crisis. Earlier this month, BP announced that it would write down the value of its assets by between $13bn and $17.5bn. ![]() The announcement brings Shell's forecasts for the industry in line with a similarly beak outlook from major rival BP. "It’s about fundamental change hitting the entire oil and gas sector." Foxconn reported a 56 per cent drop in net profit to NT12. ![]() Luke Parker, of consultant Wood Mackenzie, said: "The impairment Shell has announced is about more than an accounting technicality, or an adjustment to near-term price assumptions. Shell does not expect prices to return to $60 a barrel until 2023. International oil benchmark Brent crude has collapsed by more than a third to under $42 this year, triggered by a worldwide economic shutdown that forced factories to close and kept millions of drivers indoors. Analysts said the bumper blow is a sign that the oil and gas market is changing permanently.Ī Covid-19 collapse in demand has forced prices far below the levels needed for most North Sea firms to turn a profit, and is speeding up a wider push into renewable energy which threatens the existence of previously rock-solid businesses. It raises the spectre of many thousands of job cuts in addition to a voluntary redundancy scheme which launched in May. The energy titan said on Tuesday that it would take an accounting hit of between $15bn and $22bn in its second-quarter results as the pandemic hammers all divisions of the sprawling business. ![]() Shell has written off up to $22bn (£18bn) after warning that the coronavirus oil crash has triggered a long-term price slump - sparking speculation that the sun may be setting on a golden age for fossil fuel firms.

The results of the eight-week training blocks are promising, too. Looking at acute impacts of one 60-minute TRX class, researchers found participants burned an average of almost 400 calories per session. Part two involved investigating the effectiveness of an 8-week TRX program in relation to improving the following areas of fitness: Researchers initially set out to quantify the acute cardiovascular and metabolic responses to a single session of TRX Suspension Training. The overall purpose of this study was twofold. The American Council on Exercise commissioned a study to investigate the benefits of TRX and found benefits after just one 60-minute TRX training session, with steady improvements over an eight-week TRX training program. According to the study, all participants noted positive effects whereas strength gains were the most. Using a TRX program adapted for older adults, participants focused on strengthening the core while working on bodyweight rows, chest presses, tricep presses and squats. But in this small study, 85 percent of participants stuck with the TRX program, including 91 percent who said they were motivated to continue with the program. With so many get-fit-in-30-day gimmicks out there, it can be hard to sell moderation and common sense. ![]() The first, and this is a biggie, is compliance. When you put that all together, this decreased mobility results in a huge quality of life issue that often leads to less independence and happiness.īut when German researchers at the Institute of Movement and Sport Gerontology put older folks on a modified TRX regimen, promising results emerged.

Building a log cabin1/30/2024 ![]() Eventually, I plan to use an inexpensive chainsaw mill to cut slab siding to cover the outside of my small cabin. For us, it provides shelter from the weather, and that’s all we need. For some, this type of retreat doesn’t sound like fun. We also have a dandy portable toilet, which my wife appreciates. To see at night, we depend on the soft glow of a Coleman lantern. Given the fact that my family only visits the shack in the woods a few times a year, the 200-square footer is just big enough to be comfortable for a long weekend. I thought about building something larger, but it would have cost more money and required more trips north. Three friends and I built the cabin in less than two days. I have more time than money, so I work on the cabin every fall. The cabin isn’t finished on the inside-it is a work in progress. I built a 14-by-14-foot, one-room stick-built cabin with a loft and a small wood-burning stove for heat. A few years ago, I purchased a lot on a small river a few hours north of my home. It goes up quickly, is inexpensive, and beats camping in a pup tent. The easiest cabin to build is a simple stick-framed cabin with T1-11 siding. If you aren’t afraid to get a little dirt under your fingernails and a little sweat on your brow, you may be able to build the cabin in the woods you’ve always wanted without having to give up your spouse, your favorite dog, or the Harley in your garage. Even small, stick-built cabins can cost more than most average folks want to pay. A small log cabin with one bedroom and a fireplace is often over $100,000, while a high-end log cabin can cost over $500,000. Most log cabin companies charge several hundred thousand dollars to build a log home. Expert Round Table: What Are the 3 Most Important Survival Skills? How to Build Your Own Log Home |
