What Do You Need In Your Cabinet Design?
Before you create cabinets you think will work well, there are things you need to think through to ensure the project goes just as you want it to. These items can help you consider the important details before you make a mistake you'll have to live with for way longer than you should.
When you purchase or create new cabinets, you have to think about your overall budget. You can break the budget down later, but you need to figure out a general budget before you begin. The total budget will help you with the direction you need to face when you are looking at the options. Some things may be out of your reach and it's best to know that upfront.
Whether you are working on a bathroom, kitchen, laundry room or even garage, you need to know what kind of space you have to work with. At some point, it's good to have a professional measure the space, but there's nothing wrong with taking measurements yourself so you can get estimates and ideas for your project.
Before you think about how you want the cabinets to look, you need to ask yourself what functions they will serve. In the kitchen, there may be a variety of needs you have to meet. In the bathroom, there may only be one. Think about dividers, shelves, pull outs and other options before you decide what functions are best for the space.
If you're getting a cabinet for storage in the garage, you may not be that concerned with quality. The cabinet will take a beating and won't be something most people will ever see. If you're looking into kitchen cabinets, on the other hand, you might want something well-built that will fit in and look nice for many years. There are a wide range of options in terms of quality and finishes will help you achieve the quality appearance you want as well.
If you go with stock cabinets, you only have so many options. Semi-custom and custom cabinets, on the other hand, give you endless solutions to whatever needs you face. You will need to look through the options and start to deice where you want what option so you can pick and choose based on your budget and your needs.
Most people aren't design professionals and it's not very often that you look for cabinets for any part of your house. When you need help with measuring, designing, or choosing cabinets, contact the professionals at Lampert Lumber. You can complete your cabinet project in the exact way you want, whether that's strictly functional or to make a grand statement or some sort. With professionals at your side, you are better able to make informed decisions among the trusted brands on the market to satisfy whatever vision you have in mind for the end result.

Mikheil Saakashvili, the cyclist
Dmitry Florin
In May 2016, it will be a year since Georgian ex-President, Mikheil Saakashvili first moved to Odessa. In his words, he has become the city's 'new landmark'. At the same time, his appointees have failed in local elections – but Saakashvili's popularity is continuously growing outside of Odessa. Is there anything wrong in Ukraine like there is in Georgia?
Since his very first day in office, Saakashvili declared the fight against corruption a priority of his in Odessa. Below is the list of his major achievements with regard to this:
Downsizing the personnel of the Odessa regional administration office from 800 to 500 people. The ultimate goal – to have only 400 fulltime employees.
The establishment of a new patrol police, which would replace the entire militia in the region. Giorgi Lortkipanidze, Saakashvili's ally and ex-Deputy Interior Minister of Georgia, was appointed the region's chief militiaman-policeman. Whereas another Georgian national, Konstantin Mchedlishvili, was appointed the Head of the region's MoI Internal Security Division.
The scandalous dismissal of the Director of Ukraine's largest sea port in Ilyichevsk (now renamed Chernomorsk) near Odessa.
Yulia Marushevskaya, Maydan activist, was appointed the Chief of Odessa Customs, though she has never had anything to do with customs before.
Replacement of all heads of districts in the Odessa region.
Opening of Ukraine's first Administrative Service Center, which was set up based on a Georgian prototype – allowing anyone to obtain a certificate in the shortest time possible without paying bribes at the center.
"Crusade against illegal fencing on beaches on the sea coast. He built machines that destroyed fences installed around the oligarchs' villas constructed on the sea shore. The gates of ex-Minister of Environment of Ukraine (during Yanukovych' presidency), Nikolay Zlochevsky and Ukrainian business tycoon, Vasily Khmelnitsky, were also demolished. Having looked at the situation around them, Odessa border control and Ukrainian Security Service local division administrations removed the gates to their long-closed beaches.
"Pops embargo'. On Saakashvili's demand, Odessa canceled all the concerts of Russian pop singer, Stas Pieha, who turned out to be the Russian President's, Vladimir Putin's, confidant, as well as those of rapper Timati, who starkly criticized the new Ukrainian government, referring to all of Ukraine as 'the younger brother, who has gotten hooked on drugs.'
Based on locals' complaints, Saakashvili launched an investigation into regional authorities' actions with regard to the distribution of coastal land. In the Kryzhanovka village near Odessa, it was revealed that the entire coastline was owned by next-of-kin and friends of the local rural administration. Contrarily, local residents could not obtain a single meter of land from the authorities. Saakashvili kicked up a fuss and promised to 'jail the guilty parties.
How things have turned out so far:
Administrative staff could not be downsized to 400 people. Perhaps what former Georgian President has realized is that under Ukrainian legislation, it is not that easy to dismiss a person from a public post, unless he is on record for having committed some violation.
In the course of operation, the new patrol police have encountered problems interacting with the old militia. So far, their role is limited to patrol and inspection service (PIS) duties. In other words, the downsized militia has maintained its former powers, including the right to investigate, begin criminal proceedings and submit a case to a court or prosecutor's office.
The scandal at Ilyichevsk (Chernomorsk) sea port has died down just as quickly as it flared up. No one has seen Saakashvili's promised results of the Ukrainian Prosecutor General's Office inspection into the sea port's activities. Meanwhile, the enterprise is still headed by the ex-deputy of the former director.
The most notable result of Yulia Marushevskaya's activity as Chief of Odessa Customs Service have been the media reports that she is the wife of Markiyan Protsiv, commercial director of one of the largest Ukrainian TV channels – '24' TV and friend of the leader of the Ukrainian "Samopomosh (Self-Reliance) Party and Lvov city mayor, Andrey Sadovoy (it was Sadovoy, who established the TV channel in 2006). However, her rapid career growth could be attributed to an agreement between the Ukrainian President and 'Samopomosh'.
The Administrative Service Center, which was opened in Odessa on October 16, still has no legal status. In order to ensure it operates to full capacity, Ukrainian legislation needs to be amended. Thus, the only thing that the huge modern center does now is simply accept applications from citizens and provide consultation.
Demolition of gates on Odessa beaches has been put to a halt. Whereas at the locations of demolished gates, security guards of the oligarchs and state agencies have put up 'temporary fencing' that still block the sea from citizens.
Ukrainian music channels, such as M1 and 'Euromusic' still allot 80 percent of air time to Russian pop artists, including Timoti.
Saakashvili's other crusade against the illegal distribution of coastal land to the next of kin and friends of the heads of local administrations has lost its momentum. As Saakashvili promised, the Head of the Kryzhanovka administration was arrested on suspicion of embezzlement of 2.7 million UAH (about $119,000 US) the day after Saakashvili's visit. However, he was released on 1.5million UAH (about $66,000 US) bail the same day. There haven't been any other reports from the Odessa regional prosecutor's office with regard to the case against the Kryzhanovka administration.
But the most serious doubts about the effectiveness of the 'Georgian model' of reforms in Odessa have emerged following the regional elections in October.
Despite a huge number of parties and candidates, it was mainly a struggle between two camps – former city owners and new Ukrainian government officials. The first secured a landslide victory.
Saakashvili's entire activity received just 46.6% of the vote in regional elections. More than half of Odessa population did not turn out for the polls, despite the appeals of Saakashvili's team.
Is the ultimate goal nothing and the movement everything?
'For Purification' – under this title Odessa governor, Saakashvili, started touring with his 'anti-corruption forums' across the districts of Ukraine. Talking about corruption and detailing flaws of the existing state system, he is gaining large popularity. He traditionally starts his speech in Ukrainian, then, apologizing, he switches into the Russian language.
Saakashvili talks about a sore subject in simple human language, rather than in a 'political, bureaucratic' language, touching upon the issues that an ordinary citizen of the country is facing. His main argument – examples from Georgia from his presidency.
'My political ambitions in this country are much more than just holding the prime minister's post. I want to set new game rules and bring a new political elitein Ukraine to power, Saakashvili claimed in one of his most recent interviews.
At the same time, he supports Poroshenko, claiming that the Ukrainian president's key advantage is his 'readiness for reform.'
It is too early to talk about the effectiveness of Saakashvili's new movement, 'For Purification.' However, his growing popularity outside of the Odessa region cannot be ignored.
On the eve of the anniversary of his move to Ukraine, for many people Saakashvili has become sort of 'outsider', who is not linked to the local oligarchic system and who will probably be able to deal with it.
As for former the Georgian President, he seems to be acting like a cyclist, who knows that stopping is equal to falling down.

The Redford Theatre in Detroit, Michigan has served as an entertainment venue since it opened on January 27, 1928. It is owned and operated by the Motor City Theatre Organ Society (MCTOS), a 501(c)(3) organization. Architects Ralph F. Shreive along with Verner, Wilheim, and Molby designed the 1,581-seat Redford in Exotic Revival style with Japanese motifs. On January 31, 1985, the Redford Theatre was accepted into the National Register of Historic Places. In January 2006, the Redford was proclaimed to be one of the city's ten best interiors by the Detroit Chapter of the American Institute of Architects.

At its opening, the theatre was hailed as "America's Most Unusual Suburban Playhouse".  The Redford Theatre, with its three-story grand foyer, Japanese-inspired decor and full-size stage, has been in continuous operation ever since.

This was fortunate, since it enabled the Redford Theatre and its 3 manual, 10 rank original Barton theatre organ, built by the Barton Organ Company, to escape the ravages of neglect that resulted in the destruction of many movie palaces throughout the Detroit area.

In 1931, The Redford Theatre's facility became more famous when its four furnaces were converted to oil fuel by Mobil Oil. Redford Theatre and Mobile Oil used this on their promotional brochures which proclaimed, "Largest structure in area converts to oil fuel." Ramon C. Bolf, who was also known as Ray Redford contributed the heating machinery and oil from his locally owned Mobil Oil fueling stations.

The Redford Theatre originally opened as part of the Kunsky chain of movie theatres.  Later, it became part of the Goldberg Community Theatre chain.

In 1977, the owners felt that the theatre was no longer viable as a commercial operation and offered to sell the building to the nonprofit Motor City Theatre Organ Society (MCTOS) (a chapter of the American Theatre Organ Society), which had been leasing time at the theatre to present concerts and silent movies with organ accompaniment.  MCTOS purchased the theatre and continues to own and operate the theatre while restoring the interior designs that had been obliterated during World War II.

Out of over a hundred theatres in the Detroit area that contained pipe organs when they were built, the Redford Theatre is the only neighborhood theatre with its original theatre organ.

Programming

Because of its location on the outskirts of Detroit, the spacious Redford often has not been a first-run movie theatre.  However, like many current second-run theatres, it has shown films that were market-tested at other movie houses. For example, on May 16, 1956, the Redford presented two prominent 1955 films - The Rose Tattoo and The Trouble with Harry.

When most of the movie theaters in the Detroit area were in the city of Detroit, the Redford Theatre screened many films that were first shown at one of the large theaters in the Grand Circus Park area of downtown Detroit.  Cimarron opened at the Redford on April 19, 1931, after its Detroit premiere at the Fox Theatre on February 5, 1931. In 1956, The Searchers opened at the Palms on May 18 and arrived at the Redford on August 15.

In the early 1930s, the Redford often showed three movies in one week (usually starting on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays). During one week in 1931, patrons enjoyed Joan Crawford and Clark Gable in Laughing Sinners (July 12–14), Lew Ayres in Iron Man (July 15–16) and Spencer Tracy in Six Cylinder Love (July 17–18).  Accompanying Redford films of the 1930s were comedy shorts (Laurel and Hardy, Charley Chase and Our Gang), cartoons (Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny and Mighty Mouse), golf instructional films with Bobby Jones and vaudeville acts.

In the 1950s, the Redford often showed double features, along with "Kiddie Matinees" on Saturday afternoons that included cartoons and special movies.  Occasionally, the Redford hosted Detroit area premieres, such as the December 25, 1956 opening of Friendly Persuasion, which was crowded out of the larger theaters by blockbusters like The Ten Commandments.

When movies started opening outside of downtown Detroit in the 1960s, the Redford was a first run theater for many prominent movies, including One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961), Hud (1963), Von Ryan's Express (1965), You Only Live Twice (1967), Cool Hand Luke (1967), and The Graduate (1967).

In the 1970s, when socioeconomic forces closed many Detroit theaters and opened many others in the Detroit suburbs, the Redford went into decline and later was reborn with a still-running series of classic Hollywood movies. The Redford is one of the few remaining theaters mentioned in a September 11, 1981 Detroit News article about film repertory houses in the Detroit area.

Current film programming at the Redford Theatre consists of a bi-weekly movie series that ranges from silent films through the musicals of the 40s, 50s and 60s to some films from the 2000s.  Spring and Fall festivals featuring films of the Three Stooges have grown in popularity.  In addition to the classic film series and organ concerts produced by MCTOS, the theatre is available for rental by community groups wishing to produce their own shows.
