LOGAN — A second-half goal enabled the Logan Chieftains to tie visiting Gallipolis 1-1 in a Southeastern Ohio Athletic League soccer match Thursday night in Logan Chieftain Stadium.
Gallia Academy's Zach Stewart scored with 23:25 left in the first half when the Blue Devils got a ball to the end line and cut it back deep, where Stewart was poised to score from 18 yards out to the back side of the goal.
Stewart "hit a great shot," said Logan coach Ian Riddlebarger. "It was disappointing, as they hadn't really threatened us and we had had the better of play. We continued to have more of the ball but failed to generate any real good shots on goal."
It was more of the same in the second half as Riddlebarger noted the Chiefs (1-3-2 overall, 0-1-2 SEOAL) possessed and moved the ball very well but had trouble converting.
"We possessed and moved… better than I can think of too many Logan teams doing," Riddlebarger noted. "The final third of the field was our letdown. We tried to play through balls but kept putting too much on the pass, just like (against) Jackson.
"It's a fast-moving field and kind of tricky to put the proper weight on the pass,' he added of the Logan Chieftain Stadium surface. "The guys are used to grass at practice but we have to do a better job of adjusting to playing on turf."
The Chieftains finally broke through with 12:33 remaining when Gallia Academy goalkeeper Alex Greer fell down when pressured by Alex Keith and Logan's Peyton Quier was johnny-on-the-spot for the cleanup goal from the top of the box.
Ninety seconds later, the Chiefs had another great scoring chance when the ball was played into the GAHS 6-yard box. The Blue Devils blocked a couple shots and Zach Williams had a point-blank attempt saved by a diving Greer.
"There were a lot of things we did well tonight, what we wanted to do," Riddlebarger noted. "You have to generate and convert scoring chances (Logan had 16 shots, but only five were on goal) to win in this game and we aren't doing enough of that."
Logan goalkeeper Cody Wilson played well and made four saves for the Chiefs.
Kyle Cassady had a hat trick, scoring three goals in the Chiefs' 7-0 junior varsity victory. Caleb Keck scored twice and Riley McCabe and Nathan Kudlapur both added one. Parker Bungard (two), Keck, McCabe and Charles Bowlby all added assists.
Craig Dunn is the sports editor at the Logan Daily News in Logan Ohio.

Drawing a crowd of hundreds that spilled onto Beacon Street on Saturday afternoon, firearms advocates waved Revolutionary-era flags, hark back to historic battlefields, and quoted founding fathers as they decried legislation filed last week by Governor Deval Patrick that would place limits on certain firearms transactions and high-capacity cartridges.
"The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed!" yelled Yang Li, 42, an engineer from Canton who was the first speaker at the 'Guns Across America Rally' in front of the State House, drawing up to 700 people. The rally was conceived through social media that spawned similar noontime rallies in other cities across the country, according to organizers.
This comment has been removed.
HHK: Yup, it is all in the pictures, well, at least the ones that are chose to be shown, anyhow. I have looked at about 200 pictures from that rally, and video. I saw women, children, mothers and fathers. Oh, I did see one anti gun protester, driving by in a van screaming at the top of her lungs like a lunatic. The gun owners just ignored her.
In another comment you mention being protected by Police. Great idea, when it works. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Police actually have no legal obligation to protect you, SC ruled on that long ago. But all this theoretical talk about Police protection, limiting guns, passing laws, mental health registries is just a bunch of theory when someone starts attacking you with a club or fists and there is no else to help you.
As one of the signs at the rally said yesterday, carried by a lady, "I would carry a cop, but they are too heavy".
Mr. Linsky, you speak of knee jerk reaction by the pro gun people? Really? What is more knee jerk than what you and your ilk have been doing for the last month? A seven round magazine is ridiculous. The responsible gun owner that is protecting his family or his business against armed individuals will be at a distinct disadvantage for surely the suspect(s) will be armed with high capacity weapons. Even the best trained police officers hit their targets 15% of the time in a gun fight. A citizen, with a revolver or a 7 round mag, up against two suspects armed with semi-automatics with high capacity mags has no chance. Did you see the video of the armed robbery in Lawrence the other day? You think your law will stop those suspects from carrying their high capacity weapons? You're alright with that I guess.

We regulate cars. We regulate drivers. We even have places where no cars are allowed at all.
In 1952, there we 7.2 fatalities per millions of miles driven in the US. In 2010, there were 1.1 fatalities per millions of miles driven.* Common sense calls for rules in society that make everyone safer.
If you just think "car" instead of "gun" we might eliminate some of the emotion and make rational progress towards reducing gun deaths the way we reduced traffic fatalities.
We didn't make cars illegal, but we came up with regulations that made everyone safer. Imagine how many fatalities there would be today if the same hostility from a small number of people and the same power in a lobbying organization (NRA) we see towards regulating guns was in place about regulating cars and drivers!
Proposed laws will do absolutely nothing to affect criminals and everything to disarm licensed gun owners, who had to take training, pay substantial amoutn for thair gun license, have interview with local police, adhere to strict storage requirements, etc, etc, etc already. MA has 3rd strictest gun laws out of 50 states, we don't need to make normal citizens defenceless agaist heavily armed criminals who will laugh to the new laws same as they laugh at current ones.
You don't like guns - don't buy them.
This comment has been removed.
@HHK, I read your response below. I appreciate that you do not feel you have a need to protect yourself. Great. I know you do not have a right to deny anyone else the right to protect themselves.
The Supreme Court specifically stated in the Heller v. DC decision that the "Arms" in Right to Keep and Bear Arms are not military weapons or weapons designed for the military. (see http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/07pdf/07-290.pdf top of page 8)
"The term was applied, then as now, to weapons that were not specifically designed for military use and were not employed in a military capacity.
Term here means "arms".
Even though this case was hailed as a victory for the gun lobby, in reality it makes clear that military and military-design weapons are not in cluded in the 2nd Amendment Right. Semi-automatic handguns for example, were invented for military use, which standardized on John Browning's early 1900's side arm. Specific military research and test work was done to settle on the .45 caliber to insure penetration on human targets. The performance of semi-automatic versions of the AR-15, AK-47 and similar rifles is consistent with their military forebearers.
The ban on these weapons should be easy to leg to make it effective and enforceable, that's another story.
Interesting, that is YOUR interpretation of the SC's decision. You conveniently ignored their use of the word the "specifically". The AR15 is "specifically" not designed for military in that it is not capable of burst or full automatic fire. The same is true of the AK47 that is sold to civilians, it is NOT the same weapon that is sold to armies around the world, no full automatic capability. It was "specifically" redesigned for the civilian market. Contrary to popular belief, these weapons are not easily converted to full automatic fire. Indeed, an expert from the FBI testified before congress that after examining over 50K confiscated weapons of this type, not one had been altered to full automatic.
As for the 1911 sidearm you referenced, the US Government sold those as surplus into the civilian population, John Browning developed that sidearm and THEN began work with the government, who added some modifications to it. Therefore, it was not "specifically" designed for military use.
I believe any such attempt would come up against the Heller decision which contains some language to the effect of "entire class of "arms" that Americans overwhelmingly choose for the lawful purpose of self-defense. "
One of the reasons the decision was hailed as a victory is the following:
"Some have made the argument, bordering on the frivolous, that only those arms in existence in the 18th century are protected by the Second Amendment. We do not interpret constitutional rights that way. Just as the First Amendment protects modern forms of communications, e.g., Reno v. American Civil Liberties Union, 521 U. S. 844, 849 (1997), and the Fourth Amendment applies to modernforms of search, e.g., Kyllo v. United States, 533 U. S. 27, 35–36 (2001), the Second Amendment extends, prima facie, to all instruments that constitute bearable arms, even those that were not in existence at the time of the founding."
Yet even after this ruling, I constantly see people on here arguing that the 2A means we should only have the arms that were in existence at the time. Of course, all the folks who comment here are much, much smarter than Supreme Court Justices.
This comment has been removed.
@HHK: To reply to your reply "You have purposely mis-represented my posts and my view. So, riddle me this: How would YOU go about diminishing gun violence in the USA today?"
First, I did not think I was misrepresenting your point of view, if so, I apologize.
More importantly, solving the gun violence problem. I have read suggestions from several people, one of them a state rep, Paul Heroux, that suggest a multiple faceted approach because it is a multi-faceted problem. First, school shootings are one category. Secondly, violent gun crimes. Third, accidental shootings. Fourth, suicides. But let's only discuss homicides since you asked about gun violence. Not that the others should not be addressed.
The premise is that a "one size solution does not fit all the problems". I agree with that. School shootings could be prevented by increased security, possibly the video games are influencing the incidents, mental health definitely plays a role. The shooters come in two varieties, students and those who are not in school, but enter a school to murder. Other mass shootings have different components, media plays a role, people talk about "one upmanship" fueled by 24/7 media coverage and instant celebrity. Weapons, a Forensic Psychiatrist was on "The View", he stated that "We had guns and mental health problems long before we had mass shootings in schools". he also discussed how video games can aid with a "disconnect" enabling shooters to become murderers. There is something new in the mix. President Obama wants to study the problem, I agree 100%. Heroux wrote a long description about how finding a "causation" is very convenient, but rarely accurate.
Violent crime? The UK went ape on banning guns, yes, their violent crime rate with guns has gone way down, however, their violent crime rate is now 5 times ours. Is it caused by disarming the people? I will stick with what Heroux wrote about, without a real study, no one can be sure. Lots of things changed in the UK at the same time they disarmed the people.
All that said about violent crime, what we do know what works is what happened in NYC in the 90's, more police work. It was a concerted effort to reduce crime, it produced measurable results. The murder rate dropped dramatically along with all other crime, not like in the UK.
I am eagerly waiting to see what a real study by the CDC tells us about the influence of video games.
The argument about gun "rights" and cars is interesting. As I understand it, gun rights folks don't like it because gun ownership is a constituional right. Our constituion, they correctly observe, is silent on car ownership. Therefore, owning a car is a privilege, not a right. OK, fair enough. I'm absolutely a fan of being precise. However, I think that arguing about rights and privileges sort of misses the boat. The reality is that gun ownership is a privilege in the US. We have laws that prevent people from owning guns if they have committed a felony. There are efforts to keep weapons out of the hands of folks who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. You cannot own a nuclear device, or perhaps more relevantly, machine guns (unless you are a collector). If we take the 2nd Amendment literally - these types of laws interfere with the "right of the people to keep and bear arms".
The other way in which this argument falls short is that it if often premised on the idea that individual rights are sacrosanct in the US. Again, I think this is far too simplistic an interpretation. There are limits on free speech (pornography laws, protest bans aimed at groups like the Westboro Baptist Church, etc). There are also legal limits most of the other Amendments. Furthermore, these limits have changed over time as American society has changed as well. So we do not have a legal tradition of treating "rights" as beyond reasonable regulation.
I think this debate would be better served by dropping the pretense that Constitutional "rights" are absolute, and that they are static. Screaming loudly and arguing that the right to bear arms "shall not be infringed" ignores the real and useful ways (IMHO) in which we have decided as a society that there are situations where it is reasonable to infringe on this "right".

People come to see my show with Cirque du Soleil, "KOOZA" and they Tweet before,during, at intermission, and afterwards. I am one of the three clowns in the show and we often read what people are Tweeting about the show for a laugh. The show is phenomenal so most comments are positive. We also use audience members in our act and our volunteers sometimes tweet their experience or post pictures on Twitter. It's weird, to me, randomly picking a person out of 2,500 people and when you've sent them back to their seats and the show has finished, reading their Tweets or knowing their names! (I'm still adjusting to this- I like the anonymity..) Recently someone who was watching the show put up on Twitter how incredible it was during the show. We read it and saw his other Tweets were entertaining and passed it around. This guy has a small group of friends, (under 30 followers) obviously close friends from school, and now he has opened himself up to a huge network of circus performers and artists only because he typed something about the show. In some cases people don't "Follow" you they just read what you write by bookmarking your page. (So be-careful what you posting to an "intimate" group...because with Twitter the world may be watching. By the way, in the second act of the show in the clown act I quoted one of his funny Tweets word for word at a silent moment in the act. I still wonder if that one random guy heard my direct interaction for him out of 2,500 people watching that night. Truly interactive technology and state of the art comedy.

The Erie Blizzard will join the Midwest Junior Hockey League, a new Tier II Junior A league sanctioned by the American Athletic Union, in the 2012-13 season. But first, Curtis Prue, the club's owner and general manager, will focus on putting a roster together.
The Blizzard will hold a pair of two-day tryout sessions at Ice Center of Erie – Aug. 11 from 3-4:30 p.m. and Aug. 12 from 9-10:30 a.m., as well as Aug. 25-26 from 3-4:30 p.m. The cost for each session is $75. The league's inaugural season, which runs from Sept. 14 to March 17, features 16 teams separated into two conferences (American and National) and four divisions (North, Central, East and West).
The Blizzard are in the National Conference's East Division with the Dayton (Ohio) Aeros, Lake Erie Steelheads (Cleveland) and the Northwest Ohio Grrrowl. Teams will play a 50-game regular season, with the top two teams in each division advancing to three rounds of playoffs. Member teams will play in the Veterans Memorial Cup playoffs. The Veterans Cup champion will qualify for the AAU national championship April 8. Prue said the league should release the schedule in the coming days.
The Blizzard played in the much-maligned Continental Junior Hockey League in their inaugural season two years ago. The CJHL had two teams in 2010-11. As Prue said in December 2011, the Blizzard left the CJHL a season ago because it had one team and the AAU, a national sanctioning body for multiple sports, refused to sanction the league. Prue hastily co-founded the East Coast Jr. Hockey League last season, since the team needed a sanctioned league to register players in order to insure them. But they were a Tier III Junior A independent team.
It looks like the Erie Blizzard will be back for another season in 2012-13.
Curtis Prue, who's now the junior hockey club's owner and general manager, said this week that the Blizzard has joined the Midwest Junior Hockey League. According to juniorhockey.com, it's a Tier II Junior A league that's sanctioned by the American Athletic Union.
The Blizzard, who joined a month ago, didn't have to pay an expansion fee because they are a founding member of the league. Prue said the MJHL has 14 teams, primarily made up of teams that left the USA Hockey-sanctioned Great Lakes Hockey League. They will play a 50-game schedule. Juniorhockey.com said the MWHL's inaugural season is set to begin on or around Sept. 15.
Prue said he has four players returning from last year's team. Prue hasn't determined what it will cost players to play next season, but he figures it will be between $3,500 and $4,500.
Prue has six undisclosed applicants for the vacant head coaching position.

Photo Camp 2011
Photo Camp LA: Friday March 31st – Sunday April 3rd
Photo Camp NYC: Friday April 8th – Sunday April 10th
Thank you to the 72 students that participated in Photo Camp, presented by Aperture and Sony!
Earlier this month, select students from various universities around New York City and Los Angeles were invited to attend hands-on photography workshops hosted by Aperture Gallery and D.A.P. | Art Book Press, respectively. Held over two consecutive weekends, each workshop consisted of a day of shooting with a Sony Artisans of Imagery as well as a day of editing, including a one-on-one review session with Aperture's editorial staff.
During the first day of Photo Camp, students met in small groups, each led by a Sony Artisan of Imagery, to review portfolios and learn about the Artisan's process and approach to photo assignments. The students then went out and shot around LA and NY in an attempt to capture what the theme "The Culture of NOW" meant to them and express that through their pictures. Sony also generously allowed students to borrow and use some of their newest equipment as they went out to shoot.
The work created during this 24-hour period was a challenge but also a good lesson, according to the Sony Artisans. As professionals within their field, they felt it was a valuable experience to have a time constraint and learn how to work with the current environment as well as the available light.
On the second day of Photo Camp, the students worked with their fellow participants and group leaders to start the editing process, culling through the images they had taken to choose 20 to show Aperture's staff during their one-on-one review session. Each student then selected their three strongest images. From these, one image from each student will be included in an exhibition at the Aperture Gallery & Bookstore, June 28th–July 9th. Paper and ink for the exhibition is being provided by Epson and Gotham Imaging is doing the printing.
A special thanks to Kayla Lindquist, the Director of the Artisans of Imagery program, and Michelle Dunn Marsh, who were instrumental in developing Photo Camp, and to all the Artisans who enthusiastically shared their experience and knowledge with the students: Cristina Goettsch Mittermeier. Andy Katz, Brian Smith, and Matthew Jordan Smith; plus Sylvia Plachy, an "Aperture Artisan" who graciously and generously taught at Photo Camp in New York City.

An epic question
You guys probably get questions like this all the time, but I couldnt find the answers I was looking for going back through the forum, so I thought Id just ask myself.
My wife and I bought a townhouse in a Minneapolis suburb less than a year ago. Weve had a lot of fixes in that year, but we now have a problem with the AC. It appears to be leaking refrigerant, and the charge to find and repair the leak was higher than I expected. The house was built in 1995, but a tag on the furnace panel notes that at least the furnace was actually constructed in 1990. Given the age of the system we believe replacing the AC is probably the best choice.
Weve had 5 estimates so far and they are all fairly close, but I had a few questions. If anyone can be of any help on any or all of these questions, that would be helpful
1.The furnace still works fine. It does have some rust in the system; dont know how long its been rusty. Wish our home inspector had caught that at closing. The big question for us is this: Should we replace the furnace at the same time we replace the AC? Obviously, the contractor will give us a sizable discount to buy together, but if the furnace lasts a few more years why replace a system that still works?
2.Should my proverbial panties be as bunched about the difference between r22 and r410? Most contractors have offered us the choice. We plan to be in the home at least 5 more years, but resale of the home is important.
3.Its a two level townhouse with an unfinished basement. Do I really need a variable speed blower? A two-stage furnace?
4.My wife and I are both reasonable healthy, neither of us have any allergies, we have a standard 1 filter. Again, most contractors have given us a choice. How much do we need a media filter?
Those are some of my basic questions. The biggest one being whether we should replace the furnace at the same time. If the economy tanks more, could we get a better price if we waited a little while on the furnace?
Thanks for any advice!
Oh! One more thing. My dad claims he read about a system that could use r22 or r410. I say no system can do both. The old mans on drugs, right?
1. replace both(get a system warranty of 10 yrs(if they don't offer it on their system don't buy it)
2. go 410
3. variable speed, multi-stage is the only way to go.
4. 5" media is the best filter to keep your system clean(thats what a filter's main job is for, to keep the equipment clean and operational)
and last, yes the old man is on drugs!!You can't fix stupid

1. Do it all at once if you can afford it. You'll be happier in the long run and cheaper.
2. 410 definitely. It's already cheaper than R22.
3. A variable speed furnace is nice if you can afford it as is a 2 stage. Don't overspend your budget to get it. Otherwise it will never work right.
4. Same with media filter, very nice to have. Don't overspend the budget. Plus keep in mind filters are a lot more expensive to buy once or twice a year than 1" ones are.

I agree. I believe in keeping it simple. Go with a descent single stage furnace, and regular A/C, or even a heatpump for the duel fuel set-up. If your in the middle of the row of townhouses, you probly won't use as much heating and cooling as a normal house or end townhouse. The heatpump will save big on milder winter days....my 2 cents. Besides, the regular equipment will last just as long as the fancier stuff if put in correctly.
Does it work fine? Then explain to me why its rusted out. Sounds like improper venting and combustion to me. Did anyone bother to perform combustion analysis? Did anyone bother to calculate the ACTUAL efficiency? No, of course they didnt, why on earth would anyone take critical measurements that can aid you in the decision making process.
Youre going to want a furnace and an A-coil that are the same size. Heres where I see a problem. Lets say the furnace you have now isnt as wide as the furnace your going to get in a few years, which is very likely. But right now youre just doing the air conditioner so the contractor will likely buy a coil thatll fit nicely on the old furnace. Then in a few years when you get a new furnace the coil will be to small and restricting air flow.
Also, there are savings by doing them together and youll get it all done in one day rather than being unconvinced a second time to replace the furnace. Not to mention that the guys that get sent out to install the furnace may do damage to the A/C when they are tearing out the old furnace. They shouldnt but realistically the installers out there do a lot of things they shouldnt.
Straighten out your panties and go with the 410A, or your gay. 410A is where its at brother. The days of R-22 are over and it makes absolutely no sense to buy an R-22 system. Although you may want to hold onto some R-22 since the price is going to continue to double again and again and again.
YES! Pay the extra green for the variable speed and heres why. Static pressure is a critical factor that will determine how your furnace and air conditioner perform. If you go down to your furnace right now and read the data plate/sticker that is located in the upper compartment, you will see that your furnace has a maximum of .5 inches of water column (.5 w.c.). The same goes for all the multi speed blowers youve been thinking of buying, theyre all .5 w.c. Now a variable speed blower is 1 full inch of water column. Thats DOUBLE of what the multi speed blowers are.
Id love to go into system design with you but since 95% of the people in this trade cant even grasp something as simple as static pressure why bother trying to explain it to a home owner. Let me guess, none of the companies that came out to give you an estimate took static pressure readings to diagnose how the new system will perform when connected to your existing duct system? Thats because theyre all to preoccupied with selling boxes with names on them and making false claims about efficiencies that youll never see. You can buy a 16 SEER air conditioner and 95% efficient furnace from these clowns and what youll end up with after they slap it in is a 8 SEER air conditioner and a 65% efficient furnace, IF YOURE LUCKY!
But maybe I shouldnt be so hard on them. I mean after all most of them are really nice people. They just havent invested the time and money into educating themselves.
Good air filtration is always a good idea but if its going to break the bank this is an area where cuts can be made. Just make sure theres enough static pressure available for the pressure drop across the air filter you choose.
The price of furnaces will continue to rise. Finding someone to put it in dirt cheap is an "epic" mistake. Unless of course they know what they're doing and just don't know their own worth. I see that every once in awhile mostly one man shops. But the bottom line that you'll most likely pay more down the road.
Youre welcome.
No idea if your old man is getting high or not. But I can tell you with absolute certainty that R-22 and 410A use different oils which cannot be mixed.

Here's another reason to go with a VS blower or a 2 maybe a 3 stage furnace. First off most VS blowers today use a ECM motor which when sized properly to your existing duct work will only cost you pennies a day to run 24/7 vs. a PSC motor which is what your furnace you have in your home now probably has and is costly to operate than a new VS blower with a ECM motor. A 2 or 3stage furnace will save you more money over the life of the furnace as in milder weather your frunace will run in low fire about 75 to 80% of the time and when the weather really gets cold or hot then it kicks into the 2nd or 3rd stage's of heat giving you more BTU's to heat your home. Bottom line is buy the best you can afford and just make sure you get a VS minium 2 stage, with a good 4" media will pay for itself in short order with fuel price's on the rise generally within 5 or 6 yrs payback. Also oyu may want to take a look at your insualtion in your home prior to having someone come out to give you estimates and do a load calc to size the equipment will help save you more money in the long run as well, look at your windows, attic insulation, your door's for proper seal as well as windows. All this will keep your operating cost at a minium. Good luck !!! Oh, one more thing check your duct work for sizing as well as seal it up and insulate it will save you there as well, these are things you can do with before the new install or soon after the install of the new equipment.

Why pull the trigger so soon. First off why don't you get another pro (who is less of a salesman and more of a technician) to find the leak or at least give him 1 hour to do so and if he finds it, you are probably good to go for some time. In Minneapolis, youir A/C usage is minimal and so I see no reason why you couldn't get at least 10 more years out of that A/C unit if the leak is repaired. If you opt for any of the high performance furnaces and split A/C, it will take the better part of 7 years for payback; not very cost effective.
Moreover, if , in the end you opt for changeout, DO NOT HIRE anyone who doesn't, at a minimum, do heating and cooling load calculations and duct analysis of your existing ductwork before sizing the unit.

There is much ass-kickage in this thread, thanks one and all for the info.
I have a follow up or two.
Our town house has other units on three sides, so we get no cross ventilation at all (no back windows). The bedrooms are also on the 2nd floor, and we have a loft layout with vaulted ceilings. This is nice in the Minnesota winters as we get the heat from the other units, but not terribly pleasant right now. When the AC went out in the first place we called a technician out. I know I cant quote, but his price to find the leak and repair it was about a third of his price to replace it. The system, as mentioned, is at least 13 years old and is a builders grade Tempstar system. The AC is also too small for our house. Having another diagnostic on the system would not be cheap (first technician was going to use a dye kit), and Im not sure sinking any more money into this machine is a wise investment.
All 5 contractors took measurements to assess the size of the equipment we would need (and they all ended up with the same size equipment across the board).
WILD-Does it work fine? Then explain to me why its rusted out.
Im not an HVAC guy. I turn the thermostat, the house gets warmer=system is working fine
WILD-Let me guess, none of the companies that came out to give you an estimate took static pressure readings to diagnose how the new system will perform when connected to your existing duct system?
I believe this is true, though Im not sure what that diagnostic would look like, so maybe someone did it. It seems unlikely as no one mentioned it.
Weve got a bid we like from a company we like. Basically, we are down to one more decision. He gave us three possible system options. Weve tossed the cheapest one, because it was a r22 based system, a single stage furnace and not much of a savings.
The differences between the other two are:
A variable speed blower
A 2 stage AC
A fancy thermostat necessitated by the 2 stage AC
And a 15 Seer rating against a 13
The difference in price is about what other companies wanted for the variable speed blower alone. My wife wants to go with the cheaper one. We are going to have finance this regardless (just moved into the house a year ago, and a lot of stuff has had to be fixed), so she thinks we should save the money. The cheaper system still has a two-stage furnace, an r410 based AC and both come with the media filter. They are both Lennox brand systems if anyone cares.
Should I try to convince her to go with the more expensive model?
You guys rock.
Compare the warranties of teh 2 models.
Unfortunately, just because something is new. Doesn't mean it won't break down some time. And a good part/labor warranty is nice when it does.
pennies saved now could be dollars spent later.

The price is a little cheaper than you will find anywhere else. The product is worth the price and is much better quality than cheaper brand flat irons. The variable heat setting is nice and works in one swipe without burning hair, which is a problem with low quality products.
I had a CHI for over 5 years that was finally bitting the bullet. It was making funny noises and I needed something reasonable and similar. I found this CHI on Overstock for, not only, cheaper but better quality. I started looking on websites and this one seemed to meet my budget and was overall a better CHI. The CHI I had only had an ON and OFF switch, but this one has a temperature roller; and it was pink (!) , versus my black one that had skulls all over it. Though it has a normal plug in on it, versus my old one with the surge protector, that would be the only flaw of this product!
The product is exactly what I expected although shipping was a little slow. I would recommend the chi to all hair types. This one in particular gets up over 400 degrees which I need for my thick hair. The only thing I don't like is that the temperature gage gets hit a lot (so I constantly have to move it back to where I want it)
I received this item at an event held for hairstylist in the Bay Area. I brought it home, coudl not wait to use it on my hair- very good quality, held heat and a smooth finish to my locks. Its actually very cute and portable. I recommend using a Thermal protector as well as a smoothing gloss when using this product, especially if you have color- treated hair. Great for short hair (think Lisa Rinna) adds a glossy flip and hold. Worth it!
This product was bought for my granddaughter. She uses it every day. It actually has held up through two people using it regularly, as her sister borrows it frequently!
Chia flat iron is the only iron that works on my hair. My hair is super curly & this Chia iron really works.
This is a really good quality straightener. It leaves your hair pin straight and shiny. This is the best flat iron i've ever owned.
Iron works as it should. I like the variable temperature button and the long cord. My stylist has told me that 375 degrees is sufficient for my hair type (straight/thick), so this iron is more than sufficient to get the job done. Wish it came with a stand, but otherwise a very good iron that I would definitely recommend.
This flat iron is amazing, I use it to curl my hair and what used to take me 1+ hours on my old flat iron now only takes me about 30 mins to curl my hair!! I love how smoothly my hair runs through it and the swivel cord is great! Great quality product and so much more then I was expecting. heats up quickly and the temp control is great and does'nt get in the way.

Burned Body Found Thursday Was 20- to 40-Year-Old Woman
Police are investigating a body found burned at the Unami Gun Club in Salisbury Township.
A body found burning near Unami Fish and Game Club off Chestnut Hill Road in Salisbury Township Thursday morning was a white or light-skinned Hispanic woman age 20 to 40, according to the Lehigh County coroner.
An autopsy will be performed Friday to determine the exact cause of death.
The woman's identity will be revealed once investigators know for sure who she was and notify her next of kin.
Emergency responders were called to the scene around 9:30 a.m. when a resident driving on Chestnut Hill Road saw something burning near the Unami Fish and Game Club in Salisbury Township not far from the Emmaus border.
Deputy Coroner Ray Anthony pronounced the woman dead at the scene at 10:20 a.m.
Unami is a private shooting and social club, according to its website. The property includes pistol, rifle and archery ranges and a clubhouse with a bar and banquet room.
Neighbor Tim Bollinger told Patch he left his home around 7:45 a.m. to get an oil change and all was quiet. When he came home about two hours later, he saw flashing lights from police cars and emergency vehicles. Bollinger thought there had been a car accident, which is not uncommon on the road.
This is the second time this year a body was found in the township. In July, the body of Kimberly Cardona of Whitehall was discovered by a man walking his dog. Cardona's killer is accused of cutting her neck and dousing her body with bleach.
In 2011, a hunter found skeletal remains in the township. The remains were later identified as a Doylestown man.
Also in Lehigh County, police are still searching for the killer of a Brooklyn man whose burned body was found shortly after Halloween 2011 in South Whitehall Township.

Sounds like a serial killers on theloose. They forgot about the burning body in Allentown alont the rail rroad tracks by the Tilghman st bridge laast year.

Sounds like we need more police in the township, instead of an extension to a walking path in the park.
10:41 am on Friday, December 28, 2012
The proper name of the club is Unami Fish & Game Protective Assoc. Inc., or as the sign says Unami Fish & Game, Inc. Did you change the name of the club in the headline just to get reader's attention with the word "gun"? Yes, they have gun ranges there, but that has absolutely nothing to do with this story.
11:34 am on Friday, December 28, 2012
It is a gun club, have you never heard of rod and gun clubs? Don't think the name of the place has anything to do with the story, the main point of the story is that there are sick people out there and even grown people are not safe anymore. It is sad we are coming to a point we cannot even protect ourselves let alone our children. Hopefully they find the person that did this and hang him and burn him also.

Posts tagged Cornel West
Posts tagged Cornel West
… Race Matters [was] written by Cornel West back in 1993. West's analysis of the state of American politics was so spot-on that it still applies today, go figure. I'm going to disregard how discouraging I find the fact that liberals and conservatives are still making the same arguments twenty years later. West spends his first chapter addressing another issue that also persists today.
West's first chapter is entitled "Nihilism in Black America," and it covers precisely that. To put it succinctly, blacks have had to deal with nihilism since first arriving in the New World and are as in danger of succumbing to it now as ever before, if not moreso.
I'm aware of the feeling of black hopelessness; it has persistantly creeped around the periphery of my life. In my immediate family, hope is strong. Hope got my parents a brick home and their son into college. Hope, hopefully, will land me a job straight out of college. But at the same time, my grandparents' neighborhood has steadily declined since my mother lived there, affecting the young family members still raised there. Politicians still avoid talking about these issues. Enough has remained the same that growing up in the 90s and into the new millenium, I still heard the sentiment that the white man doesn't want the black man to have anything.
What West does is provide a reason for this hopelessness. Yes, "racism" still exists, but in a more abstract way. When blacks complain about being harassed by cops or overlooked by taxi drivers, whites respond by bringing up all the whites that don't exhibit such behavior, as if this somehow erases the racism that was still present in the initial experience. Blaming the white man was easier when racism was not only systematic, but explicit; it was written in textbooks, preached in churches, and displayed on street corners. Now, when even conservatives emphasize the adoption of colorblind professional and educational practices, pinpointing the problem is more elusive. Blacks still see it, but it's much more difficult to articulate it, and even more difficult to organize against it.
The social bonds that have held together black communities are losing strength. When blacks had no where else they could turn, they could rely on the church as an escape from the social hierarchy forced upon their daily lives. Now, blacks have other outlets. With white kids all over the country immitating Jay-Z and idolizing Michael Jordan while their parents elect Barack Obama, blacks have come to expect a cetain degree of racial tolerance in most places that they go. The problem comes in talking about the places that they can't. They still exist, but now that the places black people can't go are outnumbered by the places that they can, there lacks a single institution that can reach and organize black people, and there isn't a clear institution to organize them against. The movement for civil rights has become diluted ever since equal rights became something that most white Americans hold in high esteem. Whites defined what equality meant to them, and the country has been moving towards that ever since.
Yet despite how similar the definition of equality may be, the experience remains different. The problem is, how? And after that, why?
This is where West's analysis comes in. He describes the way capitalism has altered American values and values within the black community. As social bonds have weakened, they have been replaced by an increasingly relentless wave of marketing. But the values of love, patience, and caring are not values pushed in the marketplace. Conservatives are right in pointing out a deficit of values in parts of the black community. Where they drop the ball is that they refuse to acknowledge why. Liberals are at least right in wanting to provide the economic programs and incentives necessary to begin to alleviate the problem, but they, too, skirt around the root cause.
Black America isn't suffering solely because it is disproportionately poor or adversely affected by prison, drugs, and discrimination. Black America is losing hope because it exists within a country that thinks its eyes are wide open and refuses to open its eyes wider. Broader America refuses to see that it still makes blacks feel not that they are afflicted by problems, but that they remain the problem. America still has yet to view all Americans as Americans and to help one another as such.

Coast Guardsman reappears after 3 months
HONOLULU (AP) — A Coast Guardsman has reappeared after vanishing and being declared a missing person more than three months ago, Honolulu police and the Coast Guard said Tuesday.
Petty Officer First Class Russell Matthews returned home Sunday night, police said. Police say he was incoherent and taken to a hospital for observation.
Coast Guard spokesman Lt. Gene Maestas said the service doesn't know where Matthews, a Hawaii-based rescue swimmer, has been and what he's been doing since his wife reported him missing on Oct. 9.
Coast Guard investigators dispatched to see him confirmed his identity after he called his command from Castle Medical Center in the Honolulu suburb of Kailua, Maestas said. He's now being evaluated at Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu.
Coast Guard investigators looking into his disappearance won't question him until he's released by doctors, Maestas said. But the service will probe the incident.
"We'll try to find out why he disappeared and all the details surrounding his case," he said.
Police found the 36-year-old guardsman's car abandoned at Kaena Point, a remote area of Oahu, when Matthews was reported missing in October.
Crews from the Coast Guard, Navy, state, county lifeguards and Honolulu fire and police departments together searched more than 10,000 nautical square miles — on land and at sea — for Matthews. The search was called off on Dec. 13.
Honolulu Police Sgt. Kim Buffett of Crimestoppers said Matthews isn't giving the police a statement because he's in the hospital. Detectives have no reason to pursue the case as it's not against the law to be missing, she said.
The police case is closed now that Matthews has been found, she said. Continued...
It's unusual for a Guardsman to go missing for months and then reappear, Maestas said.
"This is not the norm for the Coast Guard. In my 28 year career in the Coast Guard, I have never come across a case like this," he said.
Matthews, an aviation survival technician, has been in the Coast Guard for 15 years. He's been assigned to Hawaii since 2007.

When the Truth Hurts
Wednesday, September 8th, 2010Terrible staff attract a lot of [unwanted] attention!
Only a fool would purchase a million dollar race horse and then hire a fat, washed up jockey to race it. So why do so many business owners invest countless dollars into building restaurants and then employ miserable jerks as hosts, bartenders or servers!?
A client called the other day and asked what they should do about the horrific feedback there are getting on YELP. While on the phone with him I reviewed the comments posted by angry (former) customers and replied, "FIRE the knuckleheads that work for you who are offending your customers!"
Honestly, no training program, pep talk or team building exercise is going to transform a person who HATES their job into being a "A Player" who thrives to deliver happiness 300 times a night, 5 days a week. Like they say, you can't polish a turd!
I know… YES, they seemed very sweet at the interview. YES, you have invested months of time into them. And, YES it causes short term pain and uncertainty to "free up someone's future". But in most cases it is the only choice, so get over it, and get it done!
Have you ever wondered how the top restaurants in your city manage to employ all of those great staff…you know, the venues that are FULL on a Tuesday night?!
They do 2 things that most restaurants simply DON'T DO: 1. RECRUIT (find GREAT people); and 2. TRAIN (I mean a real induction, not just a couple of shadow shifts).
#1. RECRUITMENT: You encounter A-Players every week (if you are looking for them) working at the grocery store, the woman that lives five doors down or even at your bank (a client recently hired his bank manager as his restaurant AGM). Top restaurant owners approach these folks, offer them a career in our industry ("no experience needed – WE TRAIN") and to their surprise, many jump at the chance and opportunity. Business cards are cheap and recruitment needs to be a DAILY FOCUS if you wish to find the best operators in our industry.
#2. TRAINING: In a transient industry like ours, YOU MUST employ a manager who loves to train and is good at it (hint: bring one in from another industry). Don't be afraid to cut staff after 2 weeks if they don't have what it takes. Employ people who will invest 8 weeks learning "YOUR WAY to do business".
I know this is harder than it sounds but it is a hell of a lot easier than devising a plan to stop the army of angry amateur restaurant critics that now have a HUGE voice on social media sites.
The restaurant business has changed – it got tougher. Have you?
In your corner,

7. | Binghamton | ||
A bleak, bleak place. And i'm not a SUNY BInghamton student. I grew up right outside of Binghamton, and I must say that all the people who complain about the weather (and the lack of culture, and the declining economy and general feeling of soul-crushing despair) are quite right. This place is worse than Utica, man. Driving around and looking at people I see walking death. People walking their dogs look as if they're only moving as a result of being pulled by the animals-they don't seem to have the will to do anything. So they drink, and rot.
Like much of upstate new york, the city of Binghamton has been in a steady state of decline for the better part of three decades. But it was never all that great to begin with. I think the city of Binghamton should adopt "Binghamton-because living isn't everything" as a catchphrase on whatever half-assed advertisments for the area they manufacture.

1) The place that will make you glad to be anywhere but there for the rest of your natural life.
2) A city in Upstate New York whose only reason for existence is the State University situated there. This sad fact is not widely recognized by residents and causes a great deal of animosity toward the students whose money keeps the shit-hole from becoming a ghost town. 3) The Forsaken Lands. I may have a debilitating brain disease, but at least I don't live in Binghamton.

An industrial wasteland where parents send their spolied Long Island Kids to get a NYU comparable education, but the kids are too fucking bratty to accept anything other than going to Boston University and having their balls powdered while their new BMW's get a new pair of rims.

An overpopulated truck stop. I go to Binghamton University.
6. | binghamton | ||
A small city in upstate New York located near the New York - Pennsylvania border, approximately 60 miles south of Syracuse. Binghamton is situated in a bowl shaped valley at the confluence of the Chenango and Susquehanna Rivers and is home to Binghamton University of the State University of New York system.
After a mild turn-of-the-century presence as a manufacturing center of shoes and cigar materials, Binghamton suffered a precipitous decline in fortunes beginning with the loss of its core manufacturing base in the years following the war and consummating in the closing of its high-tech industries in the late 1980's and early 1990's. From a post-war population high of about 80,000, Binghamton has now shed nearly half of its population. Binghamton was the home of Rod Serling, host of the 1960's now cult-status television series "The Twilight Zone". The city and region suffered a devastating flood in the summer of 2006. After years of misfortune, mismanagement and neglect, Binghamton has apparently instituted an audacious program modeling such cities as Camden NJ, Youngstown OH and Gary IN as examples of what it strives to become. This policy is achieving its goals with great success. The very second I graduate from high school I will be moving away from Binghamton.

Locals brought out 75 trees this year for the annual collection program, down from last year, according to Mary Hardin Thornton, director of Keep Rome-Floyd Beautiful. She credits that to when Christmas fell this year, giving families plenty of time to take down their trees before this year's event.
"I feel like people have grown to love and expect the event every year," she said. "And to be honest, the fishermen are probably the most excited of all about this."
And for good reason: all the trees brought out this weekend will end up in local lakes and ponds to be used as fish habitats. But it wasn't always this way with the 23-year-old event.
In the years before Home Depot took over hosting "Bring One for the Chipper," Thornton said Georgia Power simply brought one of their chippers used for clearing trees to help process the load of all the Christmas trees.
"And for as long as fishermen have been fishing, they've probably been grabbing trees to do this," she said. "Christmas tree sinkings really came into vogue probably in the last 15 years."
Thornton said Keep Rome-Floyd Beautiful typically has sponsors who will help them give away small items in exchange as a "thank you" for the trees, and this year was no different. Originally planning on giving away seed packs, Thornton was able to keep up her tradition of giving away trees in exchange for trees when Mike Brunson from the Georgia Forestry Commission donated 1,500 Virginia Pine tree seedlings at the last minute for Saturday's event.
"And we like to hear about how our seedlings are doing when people bring their trees year after year," she said. "One man told me that he moved his 10-year-old dogwood tree with him when he moved that he grew from a seedling we gave him."

In December 2012, EGPAF launched a research study comparing approaches to continuing care for children exposed to HIV in Kenya. The study, which compared follow-up results when HIV-exposed infant services were provided within Maternal and Child Health (MCH) clinics and in specialized Comprehensive Care Clinics (CCCs) in Kenya, shows that the MCH clinic model provides better follow up to HIV-exposed children compared to the specialized CCC model. These photos were taken at the launch event as well as EGPAF/Kenya's headquarters, where EGPAF President and CEO Chip Lyons met with staff members later in the day. (Photos: EGPAF, 2012)
EGPAF started supporting vital HIV prevention services in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) in 2001. Currently, we provide prevention of mother-to-child transmission for HIV (PMTCT) services to the majority of the country's population through clinics and hospitals across the country. Additionally, EGPAF is credited with introducing PMTCT to DRC in 2001. As a result of our HIV prevention and treatment work, 600,000 women have been tested, counseled, and treated to prevent the transmission of HIV to their children. As one of the main providers of PMTCT services in DRC, EGPAF has saved the lives and improved the livelihood of thousands of people in the country, and spreads hope that the future of DRC will be brighter without HIV.

After he and his sister took part in Dance Marathon at UCLA – a popular annual fundraiser benefiting EGPAF – Adam Moine knew he wanted to do something big to help eliminate pediatric AIDS. He was inspired by hearing the stories of Elizabeth Glaser's son Jake and other young people affected by HIV, and he knew that he could make a difference. After six months of strenuous training, Adam swam the 20-mile Catalina Channel in August 2012 without swim fins or a wetsuit – and raised over $5,000 for EGPAF. Finishing with a time of 9 hours, 14 minutes, and 11 seconds, Adam accomplished a feat fewer than 300 other people have ever completed. We at EGPAF extend our heartiest congratulations and deepest thanks to him! (Photos: Adam Moine, 2012)
The XIX International AIDS Conference was held in Washington, D.C. on July 22-27, 2012. It is the world's premier gathering for those working in the field of HIV, as well as for policy makers, persons living with HIV, and other individuals committed to ending the AIDS pandemic. EGPAF was well-represented at the event, joining HIV and AIDS researchers, professionals, and policymakers in assessing the current global response, evaluating recent scientific developments; and charting a course forward.
On June 3, 2012, EGPAF's annual A Time for Heroes Celebrity Picnic brought 1,000 Angelenos together to hang out with stars of the stage, screen and stadium; play old-fashioned carnival games; get creative with arts and crafts; dance to some great music; and enjoy a banquet of unbelievable food — all while helping to end pediatric AIDS worldwide. A Time for Heroes has raised close to $34 million since 1990, including nearly $1 million this year alone, to fund pediatric AIDS research and EGPAF's international medical programs to prevent new HIV infections in babies and to keep HIV-positive mothers alive through lifesaving treatment. (Photos: EGPAF/Getty Images)
Today, in collaboration with the Uganda National AIDS Control Program, EGPAF is increasing access to a broad range of comprehensive quality HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis (TB) services for children, women, and families. EGPAF works in 13 districts in Southwest Uganda in support of the Strengthening TB and AIDS Response in Southwest Uganda (STAR-SW) project – a five-year, USAID-funded project. Pictured here are scenes from the STAR-SW launch in Ntungamo district; the family support group and home visit support initiative in Ibanda district; and the client-focused work of peer counselors at Rugazi Health Center IV in Rubirizi District.
At colleges and universities across the country, Dance Marathon season is in full swing! These events seek to empower campus communities in the fight against pediatric AIDS, raise awareness about the importance of HIV education and testing, and help young people make a difference in halting the spread of the virus. By dancing for up to 36 hours straight, students put on amazing displays of energy, enthusiasm, and an ongoing commitment to the fight Elizabeth Glaser herself started! Click the pictures for a look at Dance Marathons coast to coast – and be sure to send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com if your school would like to host its own Dance Marathon.
On December 1, as people everywhere commemorated World AIDS Day, EGPAF offices around the world were busy recommitting themselves to the fight Elizabeth Glaser started years ago. As the pictures below prove, the worldwide momentum for ending pediatric AIDS gets stronger by the day. (Photos: EGPAF)
The young and the young-at-heart gathered in New York City once again on November 5, 2011 for the 18th annual Kids For Kids Family Carnival, which raised nearly $1 million for EGPAF! Years ago, Elizabeth Glaser imagined a world where children living with HIV and AIDS would lead long, healthy lives. Kids For Kids attendees raised their voices and renewed their efforts to continue to fight the good fight Elizabeth started – and by all accounts, had a terrific time doing it! (All photos: Neilson Barnard/Getty Images for Kids For Kids, except where indicated in captions)
EGPAF Ambassadors are a community of children and adults living with or affected by HIV/AIDS. This extraordinary group travels around the United States and the world sharing personal stories, educating communities about pediatric AIDS, and advocating on EGPAF's behalf. In our third Ambassador photo gallery, we introduce you to three of our terrific spokespeople as they talk about how they contribute to the fight to eliminate pediatric AIDS.

5. | dumbshit | ||
A vague insult hinting at the target's mental inability. Since nearly all insults are used interchangeably as expressions of overblown fury designed to humiliate or provoke retaliation, the exact meanings of any and all insults (as well as their applicability) are completely irrelevant, although they commonly make jabs at either the subject's difficulty managing cogent thought processes or his sexual performance/orientation. The common suffixes "fuck" or "shit" are often appended in the form of a surrogate adjective denoting the seriousness of the offense. A "dumbshit" person is therefore more dumb than a merely "dumb" person because of the presence of the "shit" modifier. As such, all you idiots inventing and quibbling over precise definitions are wasting your time and mine. Worse still are the dumbshits giving thumbs up and down. Look at that dumbshit. Look at that dumbshit dance.

a person who, by nature or by the cause of an event, displays an incredibly narrow, shortsighted, strange, or just outright wrong view on a topic.

Godammit!"
