Be the star of the party or bring the festive spirit of Mardi Gras home this year with colorful toppers for cupcakes or other sweet treats!
Using a variety of Fiskars punches, you can create these fun and easy paper-crafted toppers. You will need a variety of cardstock and pre-glittered paper, as well as candy/pastry sticks, to get started.
First, cut your candy/pastry sticks to size (if necessary) and set them aside. The Fiskars Craft Scissors (8") work well for this task.
The first topper is a festive spray with a star in the center. The spray is created by using a 2.5 inch (wide) by 12 inch (long) strip of cardstock.
Cut the paper to size with a paper trimmer and then begin to make vertical cuts along the length of the strip. Either the Micro-Tip Scissors No. 5 or the SureCut Deluxe Craft Paper Trimmer (12") make easy work of this task.
Keep the cuts approximately the same width. Do not cut all the way through the paper; maintain an uncut portion along the top edge (it will be the bottom edge once the cutting is complete) of the strip.
Once the cuts are all made, roll the strip of paper around the candy/pastry stick. The intact section will be at the bottom and the open fringy part at the top.
When the strip is completely rolled up, add a bit of adhesive on the bottom edge to prevent the strip from unrolling. Gently fan the fringe down and outward and then affix a star punched with the Twinkle Twinkle Extra Large Squeeze Punch from glittered paper to the top of the candy/pastry stick.
The next topper is very easy and can be created in three quick steps.
First, punch two circles from patterend paper (one should be slightly larger than the other). Then punch the moon and stars design from glittered paper using the Starry Night Lever Punch. Layer the circles and add the moon and stars in the center before affixing the assembled topper to the candy/pastry stick.
The last topper is designed to resemble Mardi Gras beads. Again, you will use two sizes of circle punches and cardstock.
Begin by punching eight circles of each size. Fold each punched circle in the middle.
Affix two folded circles together. The right side of one and the left side of the other will become attached. Repeat this step so that you have two of these pieces for each size of "bead".
You will then affix these pieces to the candy/pastry stick. They will be "sandwiched" on either side of the stick, so that a complete sphere surrounds the stick when the pieces touch in the middle.
To create a fuller "bead," affix the remaining folded circles in the middle of each quadrant of the sphere. This process is similar to putting the slices of an orange back together.
Once all of the pieces are in place, you should then have a multi-dimensional, bead-like topper. The larger is bead is on the bottom, the smaller on top.
Let the good times roll!

The former Vanderbilt estate that sits along the edge of Lake Champlain now belongs to a Manhattan couple who've used natural materials including reclaimed barnwood and local river rocks to create a rural respite quite reminiscent of the homes of American architect Frank Lloyd Wright.

Dominant Steaua take the points
Two quickfire first-half goals gave Steaua Bucharest a richly deserved 2-0 Europa League win in a game they thoroughly dominated against Molde.
Vlad Chiriches' spectacular opener was swiftly added to by Raul Rusescu as the Romanian side got the reward for their early dominance.
There was no let-up after the break but Molde keeper Ole Soderberg fought a lone vigil to keep the scoreline respectable for the outclassed Norwegians.
Iasmin Latovlevici set the tone with a shot against the post in the second minute.
And Soderberg had to be at his best to deny Cristian Tanase, twice, and Daniel Georgievski, still inside the opening 10 minutes.
He then tipped Alexandru Chipciu's free-kick over the bar and, from the resulting corner, Borre Steenslid's block denied the same player.
After nearly 15 minutes' respite, Molde's goal came under threat again from Tanase's corner but Lukas Szukala headed over.
When the dam finally broke, though, Steaua inflicted maximum damage with two goals in as many minutes.
Chiriches made the breakthrough with a moment of magic, conjuring an overhead kick from near the penalty spot to find the bottom corner after Rusescu's shot was deflected up in the air.
And Molde had barely recovered their composure when Rusescu added the second after being teed up by Latovlevici.
Soderberg saved from Chipciu as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team somehow reached the interval just two behind and he excelled himself again in the 58th minute, saving Tanase's penalty after Magne Simonsen fouled Chipciu and was booked.
Mihai Costea headed Alexandru Bourceanu's corner wide and Soderberg saved from Tanase before Molde finally mustered an attack worthy of the name, but Etzaz Hussain could not steer Magnus Stamnesstro's corner on goal.
Soderberg fielded Costea's free-kick and Chipciu shot wide as Steaua failed to give the scoreline a realistic look.

Six-Step Process in Creating a Technology Plan
Step 6: Disseminate, Monitor, and Evaluate the Technology Plan
|5 Develop and Implement Action Plans and Timelines
|4 Goals and Objectives
A well thought out plan for dissemination, monitoring and evaluation turns a good technology plan into a great technology plan. Without this last part, a technology plan is not an active living document that engages the community and shows the way for the district's future.
Communication and Dissemination activities should communicate the needs and plans of the district. These activities should alert interested parties to opportunities for cooperation that can grow into robust partnerships that increase the district's effectiveness.
Tips on writing the dissemination portion of a technology plan:
Evaluating Action Plans Kathel Cooper, Director of Media Services and Technology, Jefferson City Public Schools
Implementation is underway! Headaches galore? We hope not! If your well-written and executed technology plan has covered all the essential components then everything should be going smoothly. Implementation can be a breeze, but the evaluation phase can sometimes cause a snag if an evaluation procedure has not been written into the plan.
The importance of evaluation in technology planning and implementation is an on-going process for any school district. In every stage of planning and implementation, the district should be aware that it is accountable for the extent to which technology is helping to provide those strategies and resources that will inspire every student to do their best!
A technology plan and report should be presented annually to the Board of Education for their comments and approval. Assessments should be periodically given to staff and administrators for their input on technological instructional needs. The administrative staff needs to review and report issues affecting the district, technology related items should always be included on the agendas for their meetings.
Other on-going communication of progress to school and community stake-holders can be achieved through a variety of methods including:
To facilitate the monitoring and evaluating process, meetings of the District Technology Committee and the administrative staff should be held to address district needs. The groups can continue to review goals/objectives which contain some standard of measurement for progress. When written in this type of format they are much easier to assess.
Example: By the end of the first year, all students in grades K-1 will achieve an 80% mastery level on the committee designed technology assessment checklist, indicating competency in basic computer use. This objective is reflective of the JCPS action plan on Training/Staff Development - Ensure that all students and staff receive appropriate training to be effective and efficient in using various technologies.
It is of utmost importance to continuously monitor the implementation of the educational technology plan. Planning calls for knowing where you are, knowing where you want to be, and continually working to close the gap between the two. Continuously monitoring the development and implementation of hardware and software systems as well as evaluating the effects of an enhanced technological curriculum on students and staff must be an on-going process. Revision of the technology plan must be on going. While the mission and vision of the educational technology plan may stay constant, the implementation plans will change constantly, as new products and possibilities become available.
Do the objectives need to be rewritten or revised in the five Technology Focus Areas (TFAs)?

Times are better, times are worse, business in getting better, business is still "interesting". Blah, blah, blah the drone goes on and on. Are things better? Is the business climate improving? What about season? It's over, ya know.
The fact is that the world is in an "economic setback". Another fact is that some have made a conscience decision not to participate in the "setback". To directly answer the questions above, it depends on who you ask!
Look around and you will see people and businesses that are doing well. These are the folks that are sitting this recession out. There are a number of companies that are breathing their first breath right now. What makes them different? Why in the world would someone choose to start a business now? My opinion is that the difference can be summarized in two words…."Creative attitude".
My career has allowed me the opportunity to work with quite a few start up companies and, in the beginning, they are all very much alike. One major difference, the one that will ultimately determine the difference between success and failure, is the ability to be creative. Thinking outside of the box is one of the keys to today's successful start up companies.
There really isn't very much that is completely new out there. The key is to present the old in a fresh, new, exciting way. This does not mean that old methods and ways need to go. It does mean that together with those old fashioned methods and ideas, there must be something fresh, something exciting, therefore something new. A new way to look at the old.
Excited people are the heart of today's start up companies. Actually, excited people are the heart of all successful endeavors. I don't know of anybody that wants to do business with a disgruntled grouch. Upbeat, energetic, excited people always find the way to present their product or service in a manner that attracts and holds customers as well as fellow employees.
Look around. Which of the people you see have their heads down and are full of doom and gloom. Now, which are going about their day with the effort to make it the best one so far? You will almost always see both types in any workplace snapshot. If you are able to make the decision, which do you want out in front of your efforts attracting and meeting potential customers?
There are those that will say that the only difference in money. I completely disagree because I know of companies that are very well financed but are on a long painful road to failure due to the "it's always been done that way" mentality.
Today's start up companies will have excited, happy, energetic, creative people at every level. Sometimes it is tough, but as someone once said, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going".

Phen375 tablets are expertly manufactured with components that aid in weight loss. This unique mixture has been tested by scientists to prove there are no extreme side effects associated. The main components used are Cleavers and bladderwack which were used traditionally as weight reduction remedies by the UK and Europe natives. Each and every substance used in the manufacture of Phen375 diet tablets has a specific use in the body as indicated below.
In order for the body to maintain the right size, the level of the thyroid stimulating hormones must be maintained. Keeping the required level of this hormone helps the body to sustain an active metabolism rate that aids to burn excess fats in the process. Whenever metabolic rates drop, the body fat accumulates resulting to weight gains, dry hair, rough skin and general body weakness. Phen375 diet tablets have a component named fucus which is a rich source of chelated iodine used by the body to produce Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) that aids to sustain active metabolism.
Cleavers is responsible for alleviating water retention and lymph obstruction in people who stick to an intake of calorie- controlled diets. This substance works by integrating lipids in areas with excess hard fat such as knees, ankles or cellulite. Cleavers has been in use by the other generations from time immemorial as the easiest way to loose weight. In modern times, scientists have also discovered that it aids to ease body water retention as well as bloat.
Cleavers also help in circulation of lymphatic systems as well as drainage of the lymph. Its stimulation effect is integral in improvement of the systems transportation of waste materials from their production areas to excretion organs. It is an integral weight reduction ingredient for transporting integrated waste since lymph accumulation in obese and passive people can lead to edema.
When all these substances are combined, a strong self-sufficient product known as Phen375 diet tablet is achieved. When faced with unwanted weight gain, an intake of these drugs works within the shortest time possible to give you the desired figure. You can purchase these amazing diet tablets at Phen375.com and read a review of phen375 here

Rap Sheet
What's up with hip-hop
Published: November 21, 2012
One of the more intriguing Baltimore rappers putting out music in 2012 has been Tombstone Da Deadman, a guy with an ominous name and grim reaper-themed cover art for Death Lives, the second album he's released this year. Death Lives was released on Halloween and features songs like "Ballad of the Non-Believer," which takes a thoughtful, incisive look at the rhetorical battles between religion and science. To hear Tombstone's music, visit tombstonedadeadman.bandcamp.com.
Brandon "BeaLack" Lackey, one half of the production team behind the great local rap label Mania Music Group, recently started a blog, Audible Mention, to delve into some of the methods and dilemmas of modern hip-hop production. Over the last few months, he's turned out to be an impressive writer, able to communicate incredibly detailed technological advice, with an eye on the ultimate impact certain production choices have on the listener. Lackey has also featured guest posts by another local producer, Ms. Tris Beats, who's similarly adept at discussing both the art and science of beatmaking. Check out the blog at audiblemention.blogspot.com.
Earlier this year, CP profiled Baltimore hip-hop veteran Tyree Colion ("Hustle And Flow," Music, May 9), who at the time had ambitious plans to release over 20 volumes of his Back For Good mixtape series in the space of a year. But he's slowed his pace and moved onto other projects. His latest mixtape, Raw Blow Music, is being celebrated with a release party on Nov. 30 at 5 Seasons. Another Colion-affiliated artist, female rapper PoisonIV No-Y, is also holding a release party, for her own new CD, on Dec.13 at Taste Lounge.
Members of the local hip-hop community have been patting each other's backs an awful lot this month: on Nov. 3, the sixth annual Baltimore Crown Awards were held at 5 Seasons, with awards going to Los, Dat Girl Kesh, and Lil Tae, among others. And a week later, on Nov. 10, the second Baltimore Music Awards were held at Security Square Mall, inducting the We Rock Crew into its hall of fame.

Erick Silva blessed us with a Wallid Ismail translation by choking out Charlie Brennemen
If not for the DQ loss to Carlo Prater back in January we could've had two 'Happy Wallid' interviews so far this year. That sucks but damn this Erick Silva is fun to watch, and he's probably going to be responsible for some sort of MiddleEasy T-shirt if he keeps up his handsome winning ways.
Tonight at UFC on FX 3, Erick Silva and Charlie Brennemen bounced around the cage like a pair of five year olds after blowing a line of pixie stix. Somehow after a myriad of takedown attempts mixed in with some wildly fun standup, Erick Silva somehow ended up on the Back of Charlie Brennemen and choked him from the rear until he tapped.
Afterwards an elated Wallid Ismail took the mic to translate for Erick Silva while Bauzen pumped his fist and jumped onto his coffee table.

The official Chelsea website checks on the progress of some of our players out on loan and looks forward to the week ahead…
Loan highlights
Lucas Piazon scored a brace as Vitesse Arnhem strengthened their grip at the top of the Eredivisie with a 3-2 win over Stipe Perica's NAC Breda.
The Brazilian, at the heart of much that was positive from the home side, scored the first of his two goals from the penalty spot 10 minutes before the break, and added a second five minutes into the second half.
Patrick van Aanholt, Christian Atsu and Gael Kakuta all featured, while Sam Hutchinson was an unused substitute.
Vitesse currently sit two points ahead of second-placed Ajax.
In Spain, Thibaut Courtois kept a clean sheet as Atletico Madrid beat Oriol Romeu's Valencia 1-0, with both players completing the full 90 minutes.
Patrick Bamford's fine run of form continued when he scored his 14th goal of the season as MK Dons recorded an impressive 2-0 win away at Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Milan Lalkovic, meanwhile, scored the only goal of the game as Walsall beat Shrewsbury, the Chelsea loanee pouncing nine minutes into the second half.
Josh McEachran returned to the Watford fold after illness but was an unused substitute in their 1-0 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday.
Former Blues
Andre Villas-Boas was dismissed as Tottenham manager earlier today (Monday) following their 5-0 home defeat by Liverpool. The Portuguese had taken charge at White Hart Lane at the beginning of last season. The defeat was the second time they'd suffered a heavy loss, with the north London outfit losing 6-0 at Manchester City last month.
He became the second manager with Chelsea connections to lose their job following the weekend's results, with Steve Clarke also dismissed by West Bromwich Albion after they were beaten 1-0 at Cardiff City.
The Scot had been in charge since replacing Roy Hodgson in June 2012. Saturday's defeat was their fourth in a row.
Late on Monday afternoon, Gianfranco Zola resigned as manager of Watford, stating that the decision had not been made quickly. He had joined the Championship club in July 2012 and led them to the promotion play-off final in May.
Yossi Benayoun, meanwhile, has joined Queens Park Rangers until the end of the season. The Israeli midfielder had been without a club since leaving Stamford Bridge in the summer and signed for the Loftus Road club after impressing during a two-week trial.
The Chelsea week ahead
It's another busy week for the Blues, starting today when we find out who we will face in the knockout stages of the Champions League.
On Monday evening, Dermot Drummy's Under-21s return to league action with an away game at Bolton Wanderers and then on Tuesday we head north to take on Sunderland in the Capital One Cup quarter-finals, with Jose Mourinho's side looking to secure a second win in the space of a fortnight at the Stadium of Light.
Our Spanish trio - Fernando Torres, Juan Mata and Cesar Azpilicueta - will be taking part in a Facebook Q&A on Friday which is also the day for a Christmas Party for our junior members at Stamford Bridge.
Later the same evening, Frank Lampard and Ben Ainslie will be appearing on Chelsea TV's Friday Night Live.
There is no game for the first team next weekend, with Mourinho's men facing Arsenal on Monday, but our Under-18s take on Reading at Cobham on Saturday, kick-off 11 am.

La Tarasque Wines
2010 Côtes du Rhône
Red Blend
France: Rhône
Mission Briefing
Winemaker of the Year
We are honored, today, to be showcasing a very exciting wine from 2012 Winemaker of the Year, Aaron Pott. His made-in-France La Tarasque 2010 Côtes du Rhône is a stellar blend that reflects Aaron's life-long love affair with the Rhône.
Named for an ancient mythical creature that plagued farmers and ate rural peasants, today's very highly recommended offering is one sexy beast of a wine. La Tarasque is an elegant and beautiful wine that straddles new world style and old world sensibilities. This exceptional wine is neither overly fruit-driven nor overly austere. Rather, it strikes a harmonious balance.
Aaron Pott is a Napa Valley legend who has made wines for Quintessa, Blackbird Vineyards, Quixote, Seven Stones Winery, St. Helena Winery, Fisher Vineyards, Stagecoach Vineyard, Bello Family Vineyards, Jericho Canyon Vineyard and his own Pott Wine - to name just a few.
When not honing his craft in America, Aaron spent ample time working in France, developing his love for French wine while learning the winemaking skills of the country.
His delicious and balanced La Tarasque wine, a blend of Grenache and Syrah, is made from vines that are as old as 30 years old. This food friendly (and very highly recommended) wine can be paired with nearly anything, but if you are an ancient Gallic peasant… RUN!
(Don't worry, no peasants were harmed in the making of this wine)
Tasting Profile
Beautiful translucent crimson with bright ruby edges. Dark garnet hues through the heart of the wine.
Wild strawberry, black currant, dark chocolate, black cherry cordial, and dark French roast coffee all combine to give the wine a layered and complex nose. Underneath these, the wine shows off a soft toastiness.
Perfectly balanced with concentrated black fruits of braised plum, black currant and black cherry. Caramel, ground French roast coffee beans, and a hint of toasty vanilla round out the flavors.
Very lush and very persistent, with red fruit and earthy flavors dwindling in even proportion. Integrated tannins don't rip the moisture from your mouth. Instead, the tannins provide a lovely texture that leads to a wonderful mouthwatering sensation.
We'd love to enjoy this French beauty with a traditional ratatouille or a rich beef Bourguignon.
What the Winery Says
A sensual, old-vine Grenache-dominated blend of elegance and structure, named for the notorious beast that ravaged the medieval countryside of the Côtes du Rhône. According to legend, the dragon was a reluctant tyrant, gladly saved by the soothing hymns and prayers of Saint Martha.
I've crafted this wine inspired by the creature coaxed by St. Martha's hand; unmasking the beast for a spirited wine of complexity and suppleness.

About the Winery
My love affair with Rhône wine and thus the story behind La Tarasque begins with my first trip to France when I was 9 years old. That first night I was in Paris with my father and I ordered a glass of milk at a bistro, the waiter looked at me and said, "milk is for babies" and instead brought me a glass of wine mixed with water and this sort of odyssey of mine with wine started at that very moment.
- During that trip I also went to Avignon and where in the 14th century, Pope Clement V, who was originally from Bordeaux, moved the Roman Catholic Papacy. My father was a minister, so wherever we went the itinerary included visits to cathedrals and religious relics in the area. And here we are in Avignon, wandering through the Palais des Papes and I learn that Pope Clement V started some of the great wines of the Rhône to be used by the Church for sacramental wine. We now know he was instrumental in establishing the Rhone as one of France's iconic wine regions. The movement of the Papacy brought wealth and commerce to Avignon. Pope Clement V put the Rhône region on the map from a wine perspective. I saw France through this lens of wine. I was introduced to the cultural history but the story really came back to wine and my early memories of discovering this area with my father.
- The Tarasque is a sort of a monster that was lurking around the countryside in the 1st century eating anything it came across, goats, sheep and a few local peasants. Legend has it that the creature inhabited the area of Nerluc in Provence, France, and devastated the landscape far and wide. No one can quite describe this beast; it has the head of a lion, the tail of a scorpion and the body of a hippo with six short legs and was covered by scales.
It is said that the king of Nerluc had attacked the Tarasque with knights and catapults to no avail. But in 48 AD Saint Martha found the monster and charmed it with hymns and prayers, and led the tamed Tarasque back to the city. The people, terrified by the beast, attacked and killed it. Martha was saddened that the people had killed the tamed beast without giving it a chance. She preached tolerance to the people and converted many of them to Christianity. Sorry for what they had done to the tamed monster, the newly-Christianized townspeople changed the town's name from Nerluc to Tarascon. It still bears that name today.
Legend of St. Martha dates back to Biblical times – she was Lazarus' sister and left Judea around AD 48, and went to Provence with her sister Mary and her brother. Martha first settled
in Avignon. Martha moved to and eventually died in Tarascon, where she was buried. Her tomb is located in the crypt of the local Collegiate Church. It is one of the medieval churches I visited with as a boy with my father.
- I've wanted to make this wine for a long time. Back in the late 90's I was working near Avignon (again Avignon) as the for Beringer on a wine called, Rive Fort De France, Beringer's brand in France. All major US wine players were there. The crazy thing was because these wines were being made for the American market, we were all over there in the Southern Rhône trying to make wine with the American consumers' preferred varietals – Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Those grapes don't grow well and were in limited supply which was driving the price up. We were all chasing the same rare, expensive fruit and passing right by these gorgeous old-vine local varietals like Grenache. It made no sense to me. I started hanging around with the local winemakers and learning about these Grenache dominated blends. I fell in love. Grenache wines are rich and jammy. They are supple with lush tannins and age well. I met all these growers – farming small little vineyards dotting the country side. It was magical. So I started playing around with a blend and got this idea that I'm going to get Beringer to market a true Côte du Rhône. The next time the big guy is in from America I bring out my little wine that I am wildly excited about and pour him a glass. He says "is this Cabernet?" I say no it's Grenache. He says "I don't want it – I want Cabernet", put down the glass, and that was it – end of story. I never stopped wanting to go back to the Rhône to make a Grenache. And now here we are. So you see this wine has been in me for close to two decades waiting to for the right time to re-emerge. When the idea for this wine came up I went back to the same growers I'd kept in touch with all these years I ultimately selected lots from 10 distinct vineyards in the region – all from local families who have been growing some of the best Grenache in the area for decades – in some cases centuries.
- Syrah gives the wine complexity – it is more serious. Think of Grenache as that fun person you meet at a cocktail party. Grenache is interesting, bold and sexy. That is perfect as a first date. But you need a little more; you need some intellect and structure. Syrah is that person, more grounded but austere. The Grenache fruit invites you in, but the hint of Syrah ensures our La Tarasque Côtes du Rhône isn't a just one-night stand. The blend makes this wine something you can have a long term relationship with! ost importantly that is where the best Grenache grapes grow. I wanted the best expression of a classic Rhône wine and to me that is Grenache. But also because to me, the Southern Rhône speaks to my love affair with French wine like no other place. From my earliest journey through medieval castles of Avignon to falling in love with the Grenache wines of this region, I had to make La Tarasque here. And of course, because of the monster himself – I had to try my own hand at taming this beast! Taste it and see what you think.
- So this idea of La Tarasque is an appealing story to me, it is one you always hear about in the medieval world. But more importantly, it is legend throughout the Côte du Rhône – it conjures a sense of pride in the local people. Everyone in the Rhône celebrates La Tarasque. Festivals and parades are dedicated to the story. Tucked away in some corner of almost every town in the region, you will find a museum with a display about the creature, or artwork depicting the beast. Festivals and parades are dedicated to the story. To me – it was the perfect image for our label. The story is really about seeing beyond the surface and bringing out the best in something (winemaking is a little like that too). Also, I like that Martha's journey began in Avignon – the very place I had first experienced as boy. The town of Tarascon is only 14 miles south of Avignon and in the heart of the Southern Rhône. All these connections are important to me.

This is out of Consumer Reports.
Heating water accounts for up to 30 percent of the average home's energy budget. Some makers of gas-fired tankless water heaters claim their products can cut your energy costs up to half over regular storage heaters. So is it time to switch?
Probably not. Gas tankless water heaters, which use high-powered burners to quickly heat water as it runs through a heat exchanger, were 22 percent more energy efficient on average than the gas-fired storage-tank models in our tests. That translates into a savings of around $70 to $80 per year, based on 2008 national energy costs. But because they cost much more than storage water heaters, it can take up to 22 years to break evenlonger than the 20-year life of many models. Moreover, our online poll of 1,200 readers revealed wide variations in installation costs, energy savings, and satisfaction.
With the help of an outside lab, we pitted Takagi and Noritz gas-fired tankless water heaters against three storage water heaters. EvenWe didn't test electric tankless heaters because many can't deliver hot water fast enough to replace a conventional water heater if ground*water is cold. in areas with warm groundwater, most homeowners would need to upgrade their electrical service to power a whole-house tankless model.
Our tests simulated daily use of 76 to 78 gallons of hot water. That's the equivalent of taking three showers, washing one laun*dry load, running the dishwasher once (six cycles), and turning on the faucet nine times, for a total of 19 draws. While that's considered heavy use compared with the standard Department of Energy test, we think it more accurately represents an average family's habits. We also ran more than 45,000 gallons of very hard water through a tanked model and a Rinnai tankless model to simulate about 11 years of regular use.
Here's what else we found:
Water runs hot and cold
Manufacturers of tankless water heaters are fond of touting their products' ability to provide an endless amount of hot water. But inconsistent water temperatures were a common complaint among our poll respondents. When you turn on the faucet, tankless models feed in some cold water to gauge how big a temperature rise is needed. If there's cool water lingering in your pipes, you'll receive a momentary "cold-water sandwich" between the old and new hot water. And a tankless water heater's burner might not ignite when you try to get just a trickle of hot water for, say, shaving.
Nor do tankless water heaters deliver hot water instantaneously. It takes time to heat the water to the target temperature, and just like storage water heaters, any cold water in the pipes needs to be pushed out. And tankless models' electric controls mean you'll also lose hot water during a power outage.
Up-front costs are high
The tankless water heaters we tested cost $800 to $1,150, compared with $300 to $480 for the regular storage-tank types. Tankless models need electrical outlets for their fan and electronics, upgraded gas pipes, and a new ventilation system. That can bring average installation costs to $1,200, compared with $300 for storage-tank models.
Tankless units might need more care
During our long-term testing, an indicator on the tankless model warned of scale buildup. We paid $334 for special valves and a plumber to flush out the water heater with vinegar. Many industry pros recommend that tankless models be serviced once a year by a qualified technician. Calcium buildup can decrease efficiency, restrict water flow, and damage tankless models. Experts suggest installing a water softener if your water hardness is above 11 grains per gallon. Ignoring this advice can shorten your warranty.
Efficient storage models are pricey
We also tested the $1,400 Vertex, a high-efficiency storage water heater by A.O. Smith. The manufacturer claims its installation costs are similar to a regular storage model. But its high cost offsets much of the roughly $70 per year the Vertex will save you. Instead, we recommend buying a conventional storage water heater with a 9- or 12-year warranty. In previous tests, we found that those models generally had thicker insulation, bigger burners or larger heating elements, and better corrosion-fighting metal rods called anodes.
Posted: September 2008 Consumer Reports Magazine issue: October 2008
So basically Consumer Reports is verifying pretty much everything those of us that have been screwing around with these things have been saying. Believe me, we have seen these products 25 years ago and had allthe same issues with them. In fact, most of those have long since been scrapped for more conventional heaters.
Indirect heaters use a boiler to heat a quantity of hot water. The storage tank is super insulated and has very very low standby loss. The recovery of these units if properly sized will allow you to virtually run hot water all day long.

Your Tech Questions Answered
Gear Lube or ATF for NP205?
I've always been told to run 80W-90 gear oil in my transfer case (NP205), but recently I've had my transfer case rebuilt, and when I went to drain it and put some fluids in it, tranny fluid came out. It seemed to be the same Dextron 3 I run in my transmission, so I called around and got people who were sure it was tranny fluid and people who were sure it was gear oil, but I wanted to ask some fellow four wheelers who know from trial and error.
Which should I run: transmission fluid, or 80W-90 gear oil? It is the original transfer case on my '72 Chevy . . . yeah, it's old.
Chim Chim
Via fourwheeler.com
The NP205 and NP200 take just what you have been told to use—75W-90 gear lube, about 4.5 pints. The same goes for any of the Dana-series cases like the 18, 20, and 300. The NP203 with its chain drive, however, is designed to use 10W-40 engine oil, and I always recommend using a synthetic lube.
For those of you wondering about other transfer cases, most all of the New Process/New Venture cases take ATF. Here again, I recommend a synthetic lube. Rebuilders tell me a better lube is 5W-30 engine oil, and that is what I use.
Oh, and you may find some factory reference to using 50-weight engine oil in the NP205 as well as the Bronco version of the Dana 20. I've have even had people tell me that all Dana transfer cases can run 50W engine oil. In reality, it has about the same viscosity as a 90W gear lube with a different additive package.
Wants Ranger Torsion Key Lift
I was looking at a torsion key leveling kit for my '06 Ranger 4x4 Sport. I want bigger tires, but I don't know what the ride would be like afterwards. Rangers are kind of rocky from stock (side to side). Has anyone done this to their Ranger? I was thinking of 32x10.50 BFG tires.
Via fourwheeler.com
Yes, the torsion bar key leveling system will work on your Ford Ranger. You're thinking right by using a 32x10.50-size tire. Put it on an 8-inch-wide rim that has 4.5 inches of backspacing. ReadyLift has what you will need (www.readylift.com).
As to ride quality, well, it will suffer due to limited downward wheel travel. To control the "rocky" ride, I suggest a gas-pressure shock like a Bilstein 5100 or perhaps some adjustable shocks like the Pro Comp MX-6 or the Rancho RS9000.
Death Wobble Mystery Solved Forever! Or Not
In the Mar. '11 Techline, Lou Keller of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, asks for help with a "death wobble." This event is more common than is realized. Mechanics have been chasing this problem with altered vehicles for a long time, and spend lots of the customer's money experimenting to see if they can solve the issue, often leading to less wobble but seldom to no wobble. The problem always shows itself after a lift kit is installed. Sometimes, changing the tire size or pressure will reduce the problem, but not entirely solve it. Toe-in is not the problem—this will cause premature tire wear and wandering, not wobble. Camber will not cause it, though it does have some effect due to the changing of tire size that usually accompanies the lift. Changing tire size changes the point at which the line between the upper and lower ball joints intersects the pavement in the tread pattern unless careful attention is given to the offset of the wheels to keep the line where the factory designed it to be.
Out-of-balance tires and wheels do not cause it. Worn-out parts do not cause it—you can drive a vehicle with worn-out unitized hubs, worn-out ball joints, worn-out steering linkage, the wrong camber and improper toe-in, and all that will happen is poor steering control and premature failure of tires.
The root cause of "death wobble" is always related to the caster angle of the front axle. Too much or too little can cause it, and the speed at which it occurs upon hitting a bump in the road is determined by the amount it is off. Remember the days (if you are old like me) of extreme choppers with very long rake angles? They often experienced the same problem. Even a shopping basket at the grocery store will experience some degree of wobble after the front wheel has been hit enough to change the angle of the caster. Trucks with lifts are notorious for having this problem because we like to lift them to make room for bigger tires.
Not all lift kits are created equal. Not all manufacturers put the time into engineering the proper caster into the kit. Many simply design the kit for lift and clearance without thorough testing with different wheels and tires. It is often assumed that the factory specs are good enough, but that is sometimes not the case. Caster has a limited range in which it works; again, too much or too little, and you have problems. Yes, it is important to have everything else correct as well for the safety of all involved, but it is caster that is the root cause of the problem. Find the correct caster angle for the combination of lift, wheel width, and tire diameter, and the problem will go away. Been there, done that many times. Hope this helps. I've been reading queries like this for years in many magazines, and the expert always takes a shotgun approach to the problem when surgical-precision rifle shots are what are needed.

Attention FM transmitter manufacturers: If you can't broadcast at 87.9 FM, then I won't consider buying your product.
If my iTrip works near-perfectly at 87.9, why would I even consider a different transmitter and pray it works at other frequencies.
Posted by Likelife on July 11, 2005 at 4:16 PM (PDT)
I have the older, screenless version and it is great. with all the noise from driving, the sound is indistinguishable from a cd. it may even be a little better because the ipod as an eq and my car stereo doesn't. I've listened to people using other things (itrip, airplay) and every so often there will be a some static—I have never heard static with this. I got it for $40 from amazon.com a few months ago and am very satisfied with my purchase.
Posted by jmaurand on July 11, 2005 at 6:37 PM (PDT)
I heard 87.9 can be achieved. I read in another forum that if you hold down the two right pre-sets, you can tune the transmitter to 87.9!! A little easter egg from Kensington.
I can't wait to pick one up and try it out in my car.

I hope you're right and thanks for posting.I have one in the mail along with my first ipod, agent 18 case, nyko universal car holder and itop, and griffin italk. I'm an over the road trucker who drives 5 to 700 miles every day so I figured I deserve the best. I wanted a charger and transmitter together for the dock connector so I would have the top available for the itop and italk. I ordered it last night before this review hoping it would be OK. What a pleasant surprise to read the glowing comments. This site has been a lot of fun and very helpful.

As for this device sounding appreciably better than any of the other plugin transmitters, this may well be down to it using the line level output from the iPod's dock connector.
I have a Belkin Tunecast 2 that I have been using via the iPod's headphone socket and it wasn't all that good. Very quiet (or distorted when I turned the iPod's volume up) and the reception frequently breaking up.
I recently bought a Sik Imp though (line out and built in car charger for the iPod) and the difference is immense.
The volume is now comparable with broadcast FM or the CD player and the sound quality is MUCH improved (loads more bottom end for example).
Before stating that this device as reviewed above is so much better than the others, you should compare like with like (ie: a line level feed into the FM transmitters).
I must admit though that a self powered FM transmitter that charges the iPod and uses a line level ticks most of MY boxes.....

I too have used the no-screen version of the Kensington FM tuner/auto charger. I was wondering if the better performance was due to the fact that it pulls power from the car. Most of the other FM tuners draw power from the iPod/batteries, so maybe they were designed to be less powerful. The kensington, being able to draw juice directly from the car, maybe was able to be made more powerful without have to worry about power constraints?

I have a relatively new Griffin iTrip which I've tried to use with my iPod Photo (4G), but with sub-standard results. No matter what station I tune to, and no matter how hard I attempt to balance the volume on the iPod and the car's head unit, I still hear a high frequency whine in the background, especially when accelerating.
Will this new Kensington unit fix my problem, or do I need to go direct into the aux, and forget FM transmitting?
Posted by scottstudio on July 12, 2005 at 7:22 PM (PDT)
The reason why the Kensington works better than the iTrip most of the time is probably this simple: because the Kensington is always plugged into the car electrical system, it properly grounds the transmitter to the chassis, thereby greatly increasing the efficiency.
Don't believe it? Try this: use an iTrip + iPod running on batteries only. Now plug the iPod into a car power adaptor and try again - you have grounded the iPod and the reception is improved several fold.
The same stunt works in the house. If you plug your iPod into an AC adapter than then use the iTrip, the signal will be much stronger due to the HF coupling of the iPod ground with the house wiring.
I used to do RF noise reduction work for audio gear and am an EE - I am pretty sure that is what is happening.

Oh cool, they're giving away a free $20 silicon case with the purchase of the transmitter. It's posted on the kensington website.
It also seems like grounding the iPod isn't the only reason why the sound may be better than the iTrip. Their features state that they have patented fm transmission technology with a company called Aerielle.
Posted by cellphonejunkie on July 12, 2005 at 11:39 PM (PDT)
The typical consumer won't make the distinction on HOW the signal gets from the iPod to the speakers, only on how GOOD that signal sounds. Horwitz's comparison, as I see it, is fully justified because it's really coming down to comparing the final product: the quality of the audio signal any given FM transmitter is capable of delivering. Besides, it's not like any of these devices typically give the consumer the choice of using line out or headphone jack out.
Moreover, there's been an ongoing debate on whether there really is any sonic benefit of using the dock port line out over the headphone jack as the feed. I, like you seem to indicate, feel there is but others who I greatly respect dispute that claim.
Posted by flatline response on July 13, 2005 at 10:58 AM (PDT)
Thanks for the tip. I'll plug the iPod into the car charger and listen for the difference. I've already shelled out $30 plus on the iTrip, so I'd like to get some satisfaction out of it before I go and spend another $80. Thanks again, your comments are appreciated.
Posted by scottstudio on July 13, 2005 at 7:38 PM (PDT)
What's a "typical consumer"?
Someone who goes into their local electrical store and buys whatever's cheapest, there, the nicest colour etc?
If so then they won't be reading this review anyway. And you're right they probably won't notice or care about any difference in sound quality.
If these consumers are reading this review then I'd guess they ARE interested in sound quality etc and that's why I was making the point about the line out sound better with a given FM transmitter than the headphone out - in case anyone reading this thread might be interested to know.
All I know is that the Tunecast sounds markedly better when using the line level output from the dock connector via the Sik Imp adapter. With or without the Sik Imp being connected to the car charger.....
Posted by PugRallye on July 14, 2005 at 2:03 AM (PDT)
This one was a thumbs down for me. My car antenna is in the back so I have gone through many FM transmitters, and have had zero luck in finding one without static. I read many reviews and comments about this transmitter and decided to try it. The "s" sound they are talking about in the review was a clencher for me. I tried 10 stations and they all sounded very staticy when it came to any word with a "s" or "th" sound. 80$ is not worth that to me.
though there was light in the tunnel...
I decided to try the Monster icarplay, as a last resort. Low and behold this one works like a dream. Its the same money, and worked ( seriously ) 100 times better!!! If this one doesn't sound really good, try the Monster one, because it will.
Posted by tmkc on July 16, 2005 at 5:20 PM (PDT)
I just bought one of these the other day. I hope mine is defective, and this is not some kind of 'feature'. When I pause the iPod, after about 30 seconds the Kensington transitter seems to stop transmitting. First, I hear an annoying whine over my car stereo, getting stronger and stronger. Then the transmission stops completely. Is it supposed to do this? If so, why? What's the advantage?
It's really annoying when you get a phone call, or you just need to pause the music temporarily, and then the transmitter shuts off and your stereo starts blaring static or whatever. Then, to get the music going again, you un-pause the iPod, but it takes the transmitter about 10 seconds before it starts transmitting again.
If this is really the way this unit is designed to work, I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned in the review. So far, the sound is great, but the pause issue is a major drag for me.
As for the 87.9 Easter Egg, I've tried it a number of times, but mine won't do it. I think it's BS.
Posted by b0sco on July 19, 2005 at 11:37 PM (PDT)
The following is cut and paste from a forum thread I started. Thanks for replying over there b0sco. So for the benefit of others:
I got my first ipod and had a blast all night with it. The Kensington transmitter is another story. Sounds great but the worst part is what you already discovered. What the hell were they thinking? After thirty seconds of no music to the transmitter, it shuts off, but not before emitting a shrill feedback through the radio, followed by static snow of course now that your radio is broadcasting the "empty" channel. I was hoping there was some way to get around it but I haven't found it.
Oh and the easter egg thing is real. Hold the two right preset buttons down and with your other hand (yes this takes two hands) press the tuner past 107.9. It will now go to 87.5 and 6,7,8,9 and then on to 88.1. It works the same going back from 88.1 instead of to 107.9 it goes to 89.9, then 7,6,5, and then 107.9. It broadcasts fine on these frequencies but when it shuts off during a pause, it turns back on to 107.9!!! You can't preset it while it is on 87.9. If you try it just goes back to 107.9 again! There's another easter egg, or rotten egg or something in Denmark or whatever. If you push and hold the first preset button and push tuner button up, a battery charge level icon appears in the top right corner of display. Each successive push "lowers the charge" by a notch. One more push and the icon disappears totally. What this means I haven't a clue. Maybe something to due with the rate of charge applied to the battery? I would email Kensington again but their answer to my easter egg question was a firm "NO". I was then told it only tunes to 8 frequencies total. This is the case with their cheaper transmitter of course but the person replying didn't know the difference. My question asked about holding down the preset buttons, and only this model has them. Oh well. I may trade down for the cheaper one if it doesn't have the auto shut off. Anyone know? And the cord shoud be coiled. Looks too sloppy... Too bad cause it does sound good...
Posted by galavanter on July 20, 2005 at 4:36 AM (PDT)
gee forgot to gotta thank you cellphonejunkie for starting the easter egg hunt!
Posted by galavanter on July 20, 2005 at 5:18 AM (PDT)
About the whole problem with the "s" sounds becoming staticy or slightly distorted...I found a simple way to kind of downplay it. In the review for this transmitter, it says that problem may be caused by a treble enhancement due to Aerielle. Now what I do is change the EQ settings on my iPod when I use it in my car to Treble Reducer and it seems to help the problem a bit if you are willing to change the sound of the overall music slightly. It also helps to have a really clear station, such as 87.9 (thanks to whoever discovered that easter egg). Let me know if this helps anyone else who has the "s" problem.
Posted by JMD1014 on July 21, 2005 at 10:46 PM (PDT)
What I have: 60GB iPod, 2005 Ford Mustang, and an innability to connect the two.
What I bought: After looking at the DLO Transpod (black) for several weeks, I decided on the Kensington Digital FM Transmitter.
Why I chose it: The 2005 Mustang has 2 outlets - the dash front-and-center, and inside the console. I decided to go for the "hide it" approach.
What I like: The transmission seems pretty good. I compared it to an iTrip, and they seem very comparable as far as sound quality. I did prefer that the Kensington's base connection because I ordered the RemoteRemote 2 for the top. The stations are easy to tune on the fly, and presets are easy to select and "save."
What I didn't like: Though I didn't really notice sibilance, the "easter egg" is just dumb. Put the lower tunings on there! I live in North Houston, and the easter egg tunings seem to receive the best signal... and of course, you can't set these as one of the presets either. Why? Why? Why? I also wish it came in black. Call me Batman, but I think all car accessories should come in black.
Overall: Happy with the purchase. I am still wondering how the DLO TransPod compares as far as transmission quality, though.
Posted by ScoopMichael on July 26, 2005 at 11:02 PM (PDT)
BradPDX is correct. I have an Itrip, which I had all but written off as unusual. The difference when using the car charger is striking. Line out is another serious audio upgrade.
Posted by Moltar on July 29, 2005 at 8:45 AM (PDT)
I just bought this from the Apple Store ($85). It works all right, but I'm disappointed. A "slight sibilance" of the music described by the reviewer was more of a "definite sibilance" to me. The S's on almost every song had static attached to them. Even when I tuned it to the easter egg dial of 87.9, those S's were still definitely static-filled.
Another disappointment was orchestral music sound quality. I have some 256kbps classical/soundtrack MP3s that didn't sound all that hot through the transmitter...as if it everything was a bit muddled.
I really wanted to use something like the TEN Flexdock (car charger, gooseneck, and a line-out port), run a 1/8" into the aux-in of a CD head unit (like the Aiwa CDCx204) for cleanest possible sound, but that solution would've cost me about $160, twice as much as thg Kensington digital transmitter. Maybe when I have some more cash.

I totally disagree with bringing in a veteran to compete with Sanchez for the job. Sanchez does not seem to respond positively when you try to "motivate" him.
Jets Management should spend their time trying to make the team better (ie Wideouts and RBs), instead of constantly testing their QBs mettle. Just let him be, worry about developing an offensively philosophy, sign and draft some players.
They spend way too much time focusing on who their quarterback is, this is ridiculous.
No GM in the right mind will trade for Mark Sanchez and take responsibility for the 17 million that Sanchez will represent next season (irregardless of being cut or traded), especially for anything of value.
Let's face it. Sanchez is a very very expensive backup at best.
Thank Tenenbaum, the engineer for the current state of the Jets. What was he thinking with the Sanchez recent contract?!?
Thank Rex Ryan for sticking his job security with a failure that everyone knew Sanchez was. After last game, Rex Ryan finally had the realization that Sanchez is not an NFL quarterback (looking at his reaction at the end of the last game and starting McElroy next game).
Thank Sporano for taking credit for his QB coach's wildcat design and utilizing a system/understanding that might not work in college ranks. What was Sporano thinking with the Jets around 25 yard line, running game had decent results, slightly under 2 minutes left...lets allow Sanchez to make one more turnover to seal the miserable season as a failure. Analysts were questioning that move.
Thank Sanchez for being the miserable QB that he is. No excuses. The Jets limited the range that Sanchez threw, knowing that Sanchez will not be able to complete long passes with efficiency. Decision making questions were exemplified last game in the last pick that Sanchez threw, staring down a receiver...pump fake...throw 20+ yards without planting...and ask (in sideline) where the safety came from to intercept the pass. Combine that with the current inept running game (result of stacking as they do not respect Sanchez) and it is a recipe for a disaster of an offense.
P.S.I do not blame Tebow at all. Tebow chose Jets over Jags with the belief that the Jets will utilize him in their system. It was probably inferred from conversations with Jets faculty before attaining Tebow.
Tebow has not been a success, but it is not like he had a chance. The guy is supposed to come into games with animosity/indifference from fans and some teammates to lead an offense that ran the ball vast majority of the time (by him or RB). With the understanding of the Jets has used Tebow, opposing defensive coordinators played for the run (with short pass coverages). Combine that with the inability to get consistent and consecutive snaps will not allow almost any QB to get rhythm (six completions in eight attempts this entire season).
Though the analysts seem to excuse Sanchez for not being in rhythm due to Tebow getting a few reps, it does not seem to apply backwards for them. Try being on the bench 95% of the offense, and be called into do wildcat with premise that Tebow will not throw majority of the time. Do you really think that was a recipe for success?
Gotta agree with your assessment of the offense. I wrote in another thread that this offense has an identity crisis. It has to decide what kind of offense it's going to be before settling on your QB.
Until they make that decision, the QB question will always be unsettled.

Springtime in ItalyFriday, May 10th, 2013
Kristine (Kris) M. Trego is an assistant professor of classics at Bucknell University who received her Ph.D. in classics from the University of Cincinnati. Kris has been working in Turkey as an underwater archaeologist with the Institute of Nautical Archaeology for the past eleven years, and her archaeological research focuses on the crews' equipment aboard ancient Greek and Roman ships. Additionally, Kris lectures and publishes on narrative and rhetorical techniques in ancient Greek and Roman authors. Kris looks forward to sharing stories of history, adventure, and discovery in Turkey with tour members.
Springtime in Italy: Is there anything that can so delight all the senses? Cool breezes fragrant with intoxicating citrus blossoms, verdant hills covered with bright poppies, sunlight twinkling over the blue waves, and melodic bird song fill each day. The sun glimmered brightly off the beautifully carved limestone churches of Velletta, Malta and made the sandstone temples of Agrigento, Sicily glow like hot embers against the blue sky. The days were filled with natural and architectural landscapes that summoned from us small gasps and serene sighs and the evenings were spent in convivial conversations over fine dinners aboard the Tere Moana.
While one day would offer us the opportunity to walk the ancient streets of Pompeii before cruising over to the isle of Capri to wonder at the sapphire light within the Blue Grotto, the next would bring us to the vertical towns that cling to the cliffs along the Amalfi Coast, where we were at leisure to explore the cobbled passages of Positano, lined with galleries and cafes. Whether the pathways we travelled were millennia or centuries old, each brought us to timeless vistas and cultural immersions that enrich far more than the days on which the paths were traversed, but will forever leave traces within ourselves.
