Inside the Jonestown massacre. (CNN) -- Thirty years ago, 909 Americans were led to their death by the Rev. Jim Jones in a mass murder-suicide pact in a South American jungle, shortly after Jones' gunmen killed a visiting U.S. congressman and four others at a nearby airstrip. One-third of the victims were children.
Ideal Lamp Height. A bedside table lamp should not be too large or too small, but a happy medium. The size of your lamp should be based upon the size of the bedside table it sits upon and the height of the headboard. If your nightstand is 24 to 30 inches tall, the ideal height for a lamp is 27 to 32 inches tall, advises the website William Miller Design.
Lamps on bedside tables for example can have a scale and size that is proportionate to the height of the ceiling and the headboard or treatment on the bed wall. If your nightstand is 24â to 30â tall, Lamps should be at least 27â â 32â tall. Shorter nightstands, such as a low profile modern style that is only 18â TO 20â off the floor, call for a taller lamp to equal the visual proportion if the headboard is higher than 36â above the nightstand top. Ultimately, this will depend on the height of the headboard, and or architecture of the bed wall itself.
