Perhaps this is a stupid question, and if so I apologize. We are getting a 36" 6-burner range oven. How many CFM do we need at a minimum for our blower/hood? Some people have told me 600 is OK, but others say 900 is needed.
Thoughts? If it helps, we don't cook like pros or anything, but part of the idea behind this kitchen we are building is to do more entertaining, including large family gatherings, which we've never been able to do in the past with our current tiny kitchen in our current tiny house. Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
As long as you don't have a grill, 600 CFMs should be more than enough. There is a rule of thumb that says 1 CFM for every hundred BTUs but that often overdoes it, unless you plan to run all your burners on maximum most of the time. Besides, in many locales if you go over 600 CFMs you need to worry about make-up air which can get very expensive - in some cold areas they require make-up air with even fewer CFMs. |

OK thanks! You refer to cold areas. I live in snowy Canada, so this is good to know. We just had a lousy blizzard today...April 5! Ugh... |

This is a rather hot topic, Lucybear. First I'd check my local code and state codes on make up air (MUA). When strong venting out of combusted cooking products is performed, it's important not to sequester your gas furnace and water heater exhaust by-products [one of which is odor-less carbon monoxide (CO)] through limiting their make up air system. Fireplaces, wood stoves can pose a similar problem too. Many states and localities have adopted mandatory MUA regulations. This poses a quandary for cooks with high BTU ranges and organic effluents needing venting. Some say get the 1000 cfm vent when you re-do your kitchen so you can use it on high when needed. If you put in a 600 cfm vent system you won't have the option to go higher. There lies the heart of the issue if code does not specify. I plan on a 36" range yet am not sure how BTU powerful it will be. I still want to put in a 1000 cfm vent system however, as that's what I have now and believe I'd like to continue to have the option of turning it to high on infrequent occasions. Our local and state codes are silent. My house is not tight. I know to crack a window if need be. I have many CO detectors up and check them regularly. I have the ventilation ducts in place already. I will vent again to the exterior of the house. But I won't use that high cfm without caution. And if I need to, I will add 400 cfms through my AC system, a relatively cheap and effective way to supply important make up air. These are some considerations. I hope they help. You ask a great question. |
- Posted by Lucybear05 (My Page) on Thu, Apr 5, 12 at 22:01
Thank you SparklingWater! I have e-mailed our builder and asked them to discuss this issue with the mechanical contractor, to ensure we have appropriate venting and CFM's for this range oven. I believe our current spec is 600 CFM, so we need to be sure that is enough. |
- Posted by Madeline616 (My Page) on Fri, Apr 6, 12 at 13:33
Just wanted to add one more thing. This likely isn't the case in your situation, but just in case it helps someone else... If your hood is mounted higher than the standard/code recommends--which is 30-36" above the cooking surface--you should figure in add'l CFMs, and possibly even additional ventilator width. Wolf can tell you how many--it's a certain number of CFM (maybe 100?) for every inch over 36" above the cooking surface. I have the Wolf DF 36" with an 1100 CFM blower, b/c mine is mounted about 42" above the cooking surface. That additional height is tricky to really compensate for, but the Best by Broan 58" ventilator with 1100 CFM in-line blower seems to be doing the trick. |
- Posted by SparklingWater (My Page) on Fri, Apr 6, 12 at 20:58
Madeline's point is well made: height of vent hood may impact need for speed to capture the produced effluent. Another consideration, if I may, is the "capture area" over your range. More depth to the vent, with a good blower, will capture that plume better than a narrower vent hood. Plumes (that burst of combustion) rise quickly, and if nothing is there to capture it in time, the lateral spread becomes more prominent. In venting, depth of hood over one's burners matters. |
- Posted by Madeline616 (My Page) on Sat, Apr 7, 12 at 14:06
Oh, great point Sparkling! ...and Lucy, ask your contractor to mount the hood as far out towards the front of the stove as possible. So, if there are 6" of lateral space (front to back) to play with, don't mount it flush up against the wall, mount it as far forward as possible for better capture. |
- Posted by Lucybear05 (My Page) on Sat, Apr 7, 12 at 15:39
Thank you so much for this! OK, so if recommended height is 30 to 36", we would definitely want to do the higher end, because my husband is 6 feet tall, maybe a bit taller. I don't want him to be constantly clocking himself! What are the considerations for height, other than adequate venting? Is it just aesthetics and how tall you are? |
We are in a similar situation. Not too extreme cooking and planning on a Wolf AG 36" range with a griddle (mostly for breakfast food - pancakes and such). While we would love the Modernaire type - the price quote was simply out of our price range. The appliance sales rep gave some advice: 1. If we go with a lower CFM unit place it as low as possible. 2. Get one deep enough (24"+) to be sure to have enough capture space for the front burners 3. Aim for a larger duct size - 8" (for noise?) 4. Turn on the fan 15-20 minutes before you need it We are looking at this model Zephyr. Hoping to get some feedback on it. It's only 715 CFM but meets the other requirements. |

There seems to be a trend on this forum that CFM requirements are strictly related to hood size, height and BTU of the cooking surface. While those are all important factors in the equation the bottom line is that no one can give a totally accurate response with out seeing your home. What is the diameter of your exhaust? How long is the run? How many turns in the run? There is a significant loss of CFM for every 90 degree turn or even a bend in the exhaust. A qualified installer should be able to help you factor your CFM requirement after they inspect your home and determine the requirements of your exhaust vent. Once that is done you can look at the information you have acquired and make an informed decision. We currently have 600 CFM over a smaller range than the OP is considering. I would want to start at 900 CFM for a 36" range and then consider the other factors that will affect the actual CFM before deciding if that is enough. Every home is going to be different even if ranges and hoods were equal. |
- Posted by Madeline616 (My Page) on Mon, Apr 9, 12 at 13:06
Lucy, the height decision was purely aesthetic for us. I really wanted it to be very high and open-looking. Of course, Docsknot is totally right, and clearly you're working with your contractor on figuring out exactly what's needed in your situation. I found the GW forum to be incredibly helpful, though, in educating me so that I could communicate intelligently with the contractors. No contractor cares about the details of your kitchen as much as you do! |

Dear Lucybear05 & Laurat88, We thought we could be of some assistance. Please refer to the Wolf Ventilation Guide linked below. As you can see on page 10, we recommend a minimum 900 CFM blower for 36" Gas Ranges, regardless of rangetop configuration. On page 9 we discuss the Equivalent Duct Run for our units. Using a 10" round duct is ideal, however smaller duct sizes may be adequate depending on the specifics of your particular run. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this or any other issue, please contact us directly. You can contact us via phone Mon-Fri. 8:00-5:00 CST at 800-222-7820. We can also be reached via email at firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you, Customer Care Team |

Hi Lucybear, I have great page on ventilation. It covers the real issues when venting your range... If you go with a range hood that uses a 6-7" round duct work, you need to read this... Lot's of mistakes are made in this arena! |

After a two week hiatus, NASCAR is coming back to FOX! It's Martinsville in Virginia. This tight race held on the Martinsville Speedway is going to be a blast. With enough width and distance to twist and turn, we may see a lot of pile ups and bumping-and-grinding as racers crucify each other for the top position at victory lane. All I know is that the race in California, almost two weeks ago, was spectacular; so I definitely cannot wait to see what will happen at this upcoming event!

The other night Flo and I got off the finally-renovated Cermak/Chinatown red line stop to dine at Ahjoomah's Apron. (Ahjoomah means older, married woman.) The round sign is relatively small and is hidden behind a tree, making the restaurant invisible among all the other restaurants along Cermak and Wentworth. Perhaps they would benefit from a sign that juts out perpendicular to the building facade and/or lettering to the right and left of the circle emblem.
Ahjoomah's Apron, which opened earlier this year, offers authentic and traditional Korean fare including bibimbop, soups, stews, meat, and noodle dishes with several banchan, or side dishes. We ordered the jjamppong and jajangmyun, which are actually popular Chinese-Korean noodle dishes. Since the noodles in the jajangmyun were overly thick and heavy, they were unable to hold enough black bean sauce to meet the desirable sauce to noodle ratio. Great Seas is still a better choice for both these dishes. However, I will be going back to Ahjoomah's Apron to try the various soups and stews in these cold winter months.

Flowering Trees
Everyone looks forward to the bright, fragrant flowers of spring that signal the end of winter and the arrival of the warm, sunny months ahead. What better way to welcome the spring season into your yard than with an eye-catching flowering tree? Select trees that bloom in your favorite color. From vibrant red and classic pink, to pure white and soft purple, there is shade to match any taste. Whether you're looking to work with an existing scheme, or find a showpiece to set the tone for a new one, there is no limit to what you can achieve in your landscape with a beautiful flowering tree. Plus, our flowering trees have some great advantages that make them even better. Many of these beauties are highly adaptable to various growing conditions, require very little maintenance, and will not be bothered by pests and disease. From the look of these trees, no one would guess you spend so little time on them! Crape Myrtle– Our most popular flowering tree! White, Pink, Purple, Red – there is a flowering Crape Myrtle for every landscape! In addition to being beautiful, the Crape Myrtle is adaptable to various soil types and disease resistant... also relatively drought tolerant. Beautiful flowers last for up to 4 months! Flowering Cherry Trees – One of the first flowering trees to bloom in spring! These versatile trees come in a variety of colors and forms, and are hardy and adaptable. Flowering Dogwood – These famous flowering trees are offered in a selection of stunning colors. Their relatively compact size allows them to find a place in even the smallest of landscapes. Disease resistance and adaptability only add to the value of this beautiful tree. Royal Empress Tree - The fastest growing flowering trees you can find. Fragrant lavender blooms each spring. Grows up to 18 ft. per year for dense shade. Grows almost anywhere in zones 5-11. And let's face it: you're not going to get this kind of color and beauty from a few border flowers.

According to Winona Deputy Police Chief Tom Williams, the attack stemmed from a disagreement between the boy and two alleged victims, both 10 years old, during a physical education class at the school.
Williams said the assailant found the two boys in a hallway after the class ended and proceeded to punch and shove one of the boys. After he beat on one, Williams said he turned his focus to the other victim and punched him in the face.
Winona Middle School Principal Mark Anderson declined to comment on the situation. He said he must withhold information regarding the incident and any disciplinary actions.
This is the second student assault that occurred on the property of a Winona public school within the last month.
The first occurred at Winona Senior High School on October 4, when a 14-year-old high school girl was charged with fifth-degree assault after she physically beat a 16-year-old female student in an attack that was recorded on a cell phone video camera and posted on Facebook.

An Oakland-based group is urging federal regulators to ban menthol in cigarettes, noting that such products are especially prevalent in the African-American community and appeal to beginning smokers.
"Menthol allows the poison to go down easier," said Phillip Gardiner, co-chairman of the African American Tobacco Control Leadership Council, during a Thursday news conference.
Menthol is a highly aromatic compound derived from mint oils. It creates a pleasant taste and a cooling sensation that masks the harshness of tobacco products.
For those reasons, it is a popular "starter product" that helps entice young people to smoke, Gardiner said.
More than 80 percent of African-American smokers use menthol cigarettes, compared with 24 percent of white smokers.
Gardiner and co-chairwoman Carol McGruder accused the tobacco industry of "predatory marketing" tactics that include lower pricing and heavier advertising in African-American communities.
A representative of R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. declined to comment. Leaders of Lorillard, which sells the popular Newport brand of menthol cigarettes, could not be reached.
An industry report in 2011 argued that putting menthol in cigarettes does not increase health risks and that it has not been proven to lure more people into smoking. Banning such products could dramatically increase the illegal cigarette market, the report said.
In 2009, the Food and Drug Administration banned 13 flavorings in cigarettes, including strawberry, grape, orange, cinnamon, vanilla and coffee. But menthol was exempted from the ban.
In April, the American Lung Association and other health groups filed a citizen petition with the FDA asking it to reconsider and prohibit menthol along with the other flavorings.
Gardiner and McGruder said they support the petition and have set up a link on their website at www.savingblacklives.org for people to tell the FDA what they think about the issue.
"It's about local people talking to our national institutions about what our communities need," McGruder said.

Printing Employee On the Mend —Cagle
June 2010WAIST OF PAPER: As the aforementioned sectional header error suggests, there is a simple reason why a computer's spell checker application is not a silver bullet for the publishing industry or any writing purpose: it doesn't spot misused words, only incorrect spellings. Just ask the Australian arm of Penguin Books, which paid through the nose to find that out.
Not long ago, Penguin had to pulp 7,000 copies of a cookbook due to an editorial gaffe in one of its recipes. The actual recipe called for "freshly ground black pepper." What did the printed version say? "Freshly ground black people."
One has to wonder what would've been included in a similarly twisted recipe book for Watergate Salad...perhaps a pinch of Liddy or a dash of Nixon. Perhaps Cobb Salad would've called for some Georgia Peaches (Ty Cobb was the Georgia Peach. Sorry, I couldn't resist a baseball reference).
Carelessness and short cuts can provide a swift kick in the pants. Or the wallet. So stay alert.
SPEAKING OF BASEBALL: Allied Printing defeated Dairy Queen 17-5 in Manchester (CT) Little League action back in April. The power of printing rules on the baseball diamond. The same day, the Lions Club defeated the Lawyers, 22-5. And who doesn't like the idea of throwing the Lawyers to the Lions?
C-NOTE MAKEOVER: While U.S. currency still doesn't look as FAB-u-lous as the euro, its much-needed makeover culminates with next year's release of the spiffy new $100 bill. Ben Franklin is back, but now he's accompanied by an ink well with a disappearing Liberty Bell.
Included on the C-note is a bright blue security ribbon that is made up of thousands of small lenses that magnify objects in odd ways. The blue ribbon will provide a 3-D effect to the micro images that the thousands of lenses will be magnifying. As the note is tilted back and forth, the images move side to side. If it's tilted side to side, the images move up and down.
Ben's ink well turns from copper to green as the $100 is tilted, and the Liberty Bell will play peek-a-boo during the same movement.
These enhancements round out a monetary makeover that began in 2003 with the $20 bill getting a splash of color, followed by the $50, $10 and $5 bill. The changes, of course, are aimed at curtailing counterfeiting. Interestingly, foreigners counterfeit the $100 bill more than U.S. citizens, who favor faking the Andrew Jackson.
Apparently, the $1 will not get a face lift, so counterfeiters are urged to move in that direction. As for the new Franklin, it debuts next February. PI

New King James Version (NKJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now I, Paul, myself am pleading with you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--who in presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you. | 1 By the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you--I, Paul, who am "timid" when face to face with you, but "bold" when away! |
2 But I beg you that when I am present I may not be bold with that confidence by which I intend to be bold against some, who think of us as if we walked according to the flesh. | 2 I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold as I expect to be toward some people who think that we live by the standards of this world. |
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. | 3 For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. |
4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, | 4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. |
5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, | 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. |
6 and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. | 6 And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete. |
7 Do you look at things according to the outward appearance? If anyone is convinced in himself that he is Christ's, let him again consider this in himself, that just as he is Christ's, even so we are Christ's. | 7 You are looking only on the surface of things. If anyone is confident that he belongs to Christ, he should consider again that we belong to Christ just as much as he. |
8 For even if I should boast somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord gave us for edification and not for your destruction, I shall not be ashamed-- | 8 For even if I boast somewhat freely about the authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than pulling you down, I will not be ashamed of it. |
9 lest I seem to terrify you by letters. | 9 I do not want to seem to be trying to frighten you with my letters. |
10 "For his letters," they say, "are weighty and powerful, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible." | 10 For some say, "His letters are weighty and forceful, but in person he is unimpressive and his speaking amounts to nothing." |
11 Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such we will also be in deed when we are present. | 11 Such people should realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present. |
12 For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise. | 12 We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. |
13 We, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appointed us--a sphere which especially includes you. | 13 We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the field God has assigned to us, a field that reaches even to you. |
14 For we are not overextending ourselves (as though our authority did not extend to you), for it was to you that we came with the gospel of Christ; | 14 We are not going too far in our boasting, as would be the case if we had not come to you, for we did get as far as you with the gospel of Christ. |
15 not boasting of things beyond measure, that is, in other men's labors, but having hope, that as your faith is increased, we shall be greatly enlarged by you in our sphere, | 15 Neither do we go beyond our limits by boasting of work done by others. Our hope is that, as your faith continues to grow, our area of activity among you will greatly expand, |
16 to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's sphere of accomplishment. | 16 so that we can preach the gospel in the regions beyond you. For we do not want to boast about work already done in another man's territory. |
17 But "he who glories, let him glory in the Lord." | 17 But, "Let him who boasts boast in the Lord." |
18 For not he who commends himself is approved, but whom the Lord commends. | 18 For it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends. |

Splendour of the Seas Cruise Review by cost61naz: Was surprised at what RCL call refurbished?
Member Rating
Compare Prices on Splendour of the Seas Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruises
Was surprised at what RCL call refurbished?
We have just returned from a 7 night cruise on the Splendour of the Seas sailing from Venice. First of all I will mention the very good things on this cruise.
embarkation was first class and on the ship in record time. The Windjammer food was excellent and catered to all needs.
Dining room was, in our opinion OK. As usual steak every night in different forms. For the formal night we had 2 large shrimps, which the head waiter said gave more meat than lobster? The problem we unfortunately had on our table was that our waitress had a new assistant, and he was not very helpful in that she did most of the work, thereby forgetting orders etc.
Entertainment was good and the ships singers and dancers very good. The staff were first class and very helpful. The ship was spotlessly clean. There was music in the centrum every evening and people really enjoyed themselves.
Unfortunately on this trip we encountered very bad weather with very high winds and rain. More
The Captain could not dock in Livorno because he said the pilot could not get on board, so we made for Toulon. This is where there was a problem in that people on the ship for the second time were not catered, so it was a scramble to find things for all the passengers to do bearing in mind that you could not go on deck because of the weather.
The thing that surprised us the most were our cabins. We have cruised on lots of different lines, always in balcony rooms and they have all in all been much the same, but not on the Splendour. This is where apparently it was refurbished. We found that this room was smaller than normal, had no fridge because "fridges were not on this floor". No sofa, coffee table. No cupboards just cubby holes. On entering our room we found on the very tiny desk, coca cola cans, bottles of water and nibbles. There was no room to put these in the cubby holes. If we wanted ice we had to request it. Our room steward was superb and did everything he could to help us. When I went to Guest Services, they said they would sort out the problem and sent us up a bottle of wine "for the inconvenience".
I have been on many Royal Caribbean cruises, but on this cruise the cost cutting was very apparent. Less

Kenny. He could be leading tavia's group . You are probably going to say "but radio guy's voice was different" yeah but so was Campman's voice . Seriously compare his voice in ep3/ep4 to ep5. Waaay different
Kenny. He could be leading tavia's group . You are probably going to say "but radio guy's voice was different" yeah but so was Campman's voice . Seriously compare his voice in ep3/ep4 to ep5. Waaay different
That's because the Stranger was played by two different voice actors. In episode 3 and 4, it was Roger Jackson and, in episode 5, it was Anthony Lam. They wouldn't do that with Kenny.
How do you know if they wouldn't do the same with kenny ? They want to left his fate in secret. Having him voice radio survivor would be stupid.
Yeah, and there's the whole "Nick looks like Kenny" fiasco. I just thought he was too well known and people would feel cheated. I guess I forgot we are talking about Telltale :). It's a long shot, but who knows?
That's just... Wow. That actually kind of makes sense. Sort of. I can't be the only one who thought it was Roman, though, can I? I know Roman's dead, but I just thought...
I don't think TT will pull something like this, I mean come on we didn't knew who the campman was or even heard his voice till ep3 he still remained a mystery till the final episode, while Kenny we know him very well and I think it's unlikely that it'd be him on the radio.
Hm I don't know about that, If I had to put my money on someone it had to be Carver I mean It will bring 400 days right into the Season 2 mix
The Walking Dead - The Walking Dead: Season 2 - Episode 1: All That Remains
The person on the radio in 400 days, was the same person who voiced Winston who was after Clementine.
It would prove mt point right , I've been saying all Along Winston and those guys were looking for CArver and they thought she was in his group
.. let's just say EVERYONE WAS KENNY. You know Carly, SHE WAS KENNY.. You know Lilly, SHE WAS KENNY TOOOO! And Katjaa.. no.. that was KENNYY!!!! EVERYONE IS DAMN KENNY!!!!
What if the radio guy has been with Tavia's community up north since before we lost Kenny? See, it just doesn't make much valid sense. Plus the guy on the radio sounds so not like Kenny, as opposed to the similarly creepy nature of both of Campman's voices...


text: What at first seems a narrow, eccentric subject six massacres involving the Army, white settlers, and Native Americans in the late 19th century is, in fact, entirely universal and topical. Man's inclination to perpetuate ''a perfect butchery,'' as Kit Carson described the 1846 Sacramento River Massacre, lives on, as do the motivations for the savagery: apprehension, the coveting of land or mineral rights, and the affliction of thinking ''the worst about those who are not as we are.'' Ferocious violence has played a role in Larry McMurtry's fiction (Lonesome Dove) and nonfiction (Crazy Horse), and as always he approaches the topic with measured gentility and weary humor: ''Massacres may be many things, but they are never neat they might be considered the very antithesis of neatness.'' Among those many things is, especially in McMurtry's deft hands, a riveting cautionary tale found in Oh What a Slaughter.

I have a Fiddle Leaf Fig that I will be repotting into gritty mix mid-June. In the mean time, it has sprouted some new leaves. Two of them look nice, but two of them have me concerned. They are located at the tallest part of the tree and have large holes in the leaves. Does this indicate an insect or disease issue? Should I cut off the leaves or leave them alone? A little background... I bought the FLF in February of this year and it sits right in front of a large north-facing window. It gets bright indirect light and when it is warm enough I move it outside for a few hours in the shade. It has adjusted pretty well and has not lost any leaves or shown any signs of distress to this point. I flush the soil around once every 7-10 days. It is quite root bound, which is why I am planning to repot it and trim the roots in June. There are a few roots growing out of the bottom, which I am not sure if I should go ahead and trim now. The only other issue is that every time I water, I see a few small insects - millipedes, I believe - coming out of the bottom of the container. Again, I am repotting in June, so I am hoping that the bugs won't create a problem in the interim. As for fertilizing, I haven't fertilized yet. The pot has what appears to be green pellets in it, which I assume are fertilizer, and I don't want to add too much. I do have FP on hand though for after I repot. If you have any ideas about the holes in the leaves, I very much appreciate your help. Thanks. I hope these pictures post. Haven't posted pictures before. |
Follow-Up Postings:
looks like mechanical damage. May have occurred prior to the leaf unfurling. Definitely not an insect or disease. |
Here is a link that might be useful: one of your images
to get rid of millipedes - submerge the whole pot in water if you can - in a bucket. they will crawl out and drown. but the whole surface should be under water - or else they'll crawl up. another trick is to put some water in a container without holes and put your pot into it tight (same diameter) with bottom above water - they'll crawl out towards water and drop and drown in it. i'd cut off the damaged leaves - the plant should produce new healthy ones and may be even branch. |

Bipartisan Heat is Power Act is Re-introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives
Press Release | Sep 09, 2011
Washington D.C., August 29, 2011- Representative Paul Tonko (D-NY) led an effort of bipartisan Representatives including Ron Paul (R-TX), Jay Inslee (D-WA) and Shelly Berkley (D-NV) in re-introducing the Heat is Power Act, H.R. 2812.
The Heat is Power Act will provide an investment tax credit or production tax credit for new innovative technology that produces clean, emission free electricity from waste heat generated by industrial processes which will help stimulate growth in the waste heat-to-power market and create new jobs.
The Heat is Power Act would modify sections 45 and 48 of the U.S. tax code to include waste heat and provide a 30% investment tax credit for the installation of the technology in industrial settings. American companies have created technology that can harness waste heat from smokestacks and other industrial processes such as oil and gas production and turn that energy into emission free electricity. The tax credit will put this technology on the same footing as other renewables such as wind and solar power, and help develop a new, American clean energy industry that will lead to job growth.
"Due to the U.S. tax code providing incentives to all other sources of emission free electricity, without equal government recognition, our market is hindered. We are thankful for Congressmen Tonko, Paul, Inslee and Berkley's efforts and look forward to seeing the development of this market, creation of new American jobs, and increased clean energy for our country," said Kelsey Walker, Executive Director of "Heat is Power," the waste heat-to-power industry trade association.
The development of a domestic waste heat market will also position the U.S. to capture the global market in clean energy exports and create manufacturing jobs here in America for decades to come.

Sudoku is a logic-based (not a mathematical) number puzzle that took the world by storm in 2005. Sudoku means 'single number'
Crossword puzzles are said to be the most popular and widespread word game in the world, yet have a short history. The first crosswords appeared in England during the 19th century.

"This was a super tasty meatloaf! I had to use real mustard instead of dry but that was my only sub. I loveeeeee horseradish & have been looking for recipes using it. This didnt disappoint & even my 10 yr old scarfed it down. Thanks for posting! / original review 7/10/12 - edited to add stars"
"I made these Saturday for my sisters & I as we decorated her place for the holidays. Essentially, they're just frozen cookie dough balls and not truffle like at all. I mean, they were tasty but its pretty much just cookie dough. I thought they'd be good cut up and put into vanilla ice cream. Very easy!! Thanks for sharing."
"I made this for work as we had a Diversity Day and our team had the country of Belize. Coconut is popular there so I took a chance on this. I wasnt disappointed. Even though I'm not a big coconut fan, I found this bread sweet & tasty. Thanks for sharing!"
"This recipe was so easy to make & very tasty! I used half & half instead of milk bc I had some I wanted to use up before it expired. It made about 14 good size meatballs. I also sub'd oatmeal for breadcrumbs. I will do again. Thanks for sharing!"
"I made this for myself but halved it to use one egg. I used 1/4 tsp of the onion salt & next time will use 1/8 bc it was a teensy bit too salty but that was my fault. I absolutely loved the seasonings in this recipe!! Thx for posting!!"
"I used canned green beans & had to use onion powder instead of onion flakes ( I thought I had some!) but these were very tasty and simple to make:) I would definitely use real onion & bacon next time though. Thanks for sharing:)"
"I made this for our 4th of July BBQ @ my aunts and it was eaten up by everyone:) I thought the seasoning was perfect but next time may add some cayenne to spice it up a bit. I thought it also would be good baked at 350 for about 30 min or so. Thanks for sharing a super easy recipe!"
"Classic appy dish that never goes out of style! I made these for an 80's party & they were all eaten of course:)"

"Simple ingredients turn into a quick and absolutely delicious meal! I always buy the bix box of stuffing from Costco for Thanksgiving, and used the leftover pouches for dinner one night and it's been a favorite ever since! I have a big family of 9, so I double the recipe and use 2 baking sheets lined with foil. I use 2 packs of thin cut pork ch..."
"Really great garlic bread! I used only butter, didn't use salt because all we had was salted butter (as a pastry chef, this drives me nuts!), added some fresh rosemary (because we have a shrub that grows like crazy), a few splashes of lemon juice, and a pinch of pepper.
I mixed the spread 2 days before I needed it. I didn't want to stor..."
"I'm not a fan of crisp sugar cookies, I'm not a big fan of sugar cookies period, but I have been using this as my standard Sugar Cookie recipe. I don't recall seeing anyone else having this problem, but even after being refrigerated for a full 24 hours, my dough was very sticky! This was surprising since it has 4 cups of flour, so I assumed ther..."
"Simple, yet oh-so-satisfying! I didn't use it as is, because I wanted to drizzle this over a cold dessert, but chose this because of its great reviews. I didn't have any lemons on hand, so I just substituted with an equal amount of water. I cut up the strawberries into smaller chunks, cooked it for a few minutes to break down the strawberries, ..."
"I just had two of these for breakfast! Forgive me, I didn't use your cheesecake recipe (but I will try it soon!), but I was experimenting with a dessert idea and had leftover cheesecake batter. I baked em up in a muffin pan and used about half a piece for one strawberry. I haven't tried the other "cheesecake-stuffed strawberries" that are more ..."
"I've never had banana pudding before, so I wasn't sure what to compare it to, but it was very similar to my Banana Cream Pie. I picked up a box of Mini Chessmen at Wal-Mart, and they were very cute on top! I used 2 boxes of vanilla pudding and 3 cups milk. The steps seemed kinda weird to fold in the Cool Whip, and then add something like the co..."
"UPDATE: I found an easier to foolproof the frosting! Start with the milk first, then sprinkle the flour on top. Whisk continuously! Seriously, don't walk away from it! Just stand and whisk for a few minutes. Another tip, if you have a small food chopper or Magic Bullet, give your granulated sugar some quick pulses, and voila! Superfine sugar. If o..."
"Words can't describe how AMAZING this bread pudding is!!! It's silken and custardy with that slight crisp on the top. I first made this with a loaf and a half of cinnamon bread that has a great cinnamony syrup on the bottom. The brown sugar sauce did seem a little sweet, so I drizzled very little on each slice. This has become my default bread..."
"This is the exact same recipe as the original Toll House cookies, just in bar form (so if you lose the recipe or can't access the Internet, just look on the package of chocolate chips). They are consistently amazing and are soooo easy to make. These were one of the first 'from scratch' items I taught myself how to bake. My BF loves the blondie ..."
"This is the BEST banana bread recipe! I had no idea it would take so many bananas to make 2 1/3 cups, so I used 3 containers of my daughter's baby food, and it still wasn't enough! It was only 1/3 cup, so I threw in some canola oil and vanilla. Unlike most banana bread recipes, you can REALLY taste the banana flavor. I divided it 3 ways: plai..."

After 6 months abroad in Florence, Italy, I couldn't be more excited to be back in Washington Square for my senior year at NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized Study. My concentration is in Visual and Performing Arts Production, which means my time is spent living and breathing how to operate, and participate in, live entertainment. I am a dancer by passion, having performed in national and international showcases, but I also enjoy photography, gardening, snowboarding, wandering around strange places, and more recently, obsessing over photos posted on NASA's photo archive. I am thrilled to start my most recent and exciting endeavor as a Global Editor Intern at HashtagNYU, and look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead.

Has anyone used this brand of windows in their home? I have heard of Pella, Andersen, JELD-WEN, Milgard, Marvin, etc., but I am not familiar with Quaker. The lumber company that is bidding on my home carries this line of window and is giving me an estimate on them, but I would like any comments from anyone regarding the quality of these windows. I am specifically looking at their metal clad wood casement windows. They had one on display and it seemed like a nice window, but I am wondering about the long term quality of this line of windows.
Thank you |

things to watch out for in CRM job ads-hiring 10 warm bodies for an archaeology dig...
Jennifer Palmer
Since archaeologyfieldwork.com is my website, I do have the discretion of deciding what gets (and remains) posted on the site. There are ads from a handful of companies that I refuse to pass on for various reasons. There are also ads I've seen posted elsewhere that just somehow seem a little bit shady (a lot of them seem to end up on places like Craiglist or web bulletin boards). An example of this is an advert is calling for field crew without asking for even the most basic experience (like time as an anthro student or a field school). Do they ever care if someone knows how to hold a shovel? I know I would be nervous sending in my resume (and personal information). Personally I'm also not a big fan of adverts where companies like to remain anonymous. I can understand why this may happen for some senior level advertisements, but I think it's a bit odd for hiring field crew.
Without naming CRM company names (please!), please share your experiences with running across any of these questionable ads. Have you ever responded to a sketchy job ad? Have you been hired after responding to one of the ads basically asking for warm bodies, and if so, how did it turn out? I've always been curious to hear from someone who responded to and was hired by one of these firms.
Post ID#19491 - replied 4/2/2012 5:30 AM
I have a different angle on this to provide for you - as a reviewer I get to visit many projects in the field - and see a wide variety of skill sets among the field crews I get to see working. In most instances there is a range of abilities with more seasoned folks working with less experieinced. This is a great way for a company to a) keep payroll under control and b) train folks for future work. From a techs view - being the less experienced worker this is a great way to gain knowledge and experience. This setup allows the Pd/Crew Chiefs to have more freedom to work on specific tasks as they do not have to oversee every minute of crew work.
I have seen other crews where everyone is well experienced and able to work on their own. Needles to say such crews typically can work on their own freeing the PD/Chiefs even more - and often lead to the best resutls, field notes, etc.
But then I have also seen crews where it is clear that there is little to no experience for any of the crew. Situations like this are tough to work in, tough to learn from, and can be very exasperating for the PD/Chief as they need to spend most of their time overseeing the little things. Working on crews like this are not fun for anyone that needs to work with the data produced.
But the worst situations I have ever seen (and I have - from a few companies that must remain nameless here) are ones where they have hired a full crew with nearly no experience, and the PD/Chief is not working with the crew! The absolute worst I ever encountered was the day I visited an urban dig, found the PI sitting in his truck and a single crew person in the trench monitoring a backhoe. Walking to the trench it was clear the crew person had no real idea what she was doing, how to control the backhoe (hand signals, etc.) or even what she was seeing stratigraphically (complex fill levels). I spent several hours working with her - pointing out some basic things about working in urban settings, what different artifact types meant etc. By the time I left she had a much better understanding and ability to work than she did a few hours earlier - but I was still concerned that she was basically left alone while the PI did other things. I never thought to ask her about her experience that day, assuming that she had simply never worked an urban/hisotric site before. Imaging my surprise when the next summer I visited a local college's field school and found the same woman there. she thanked me for the help I had given her the year before and we chatted a bit - during which I asked if she was back to the field school for a special project, or to do Master's work - she laughed and said no, this was the first field school she had ever been on. Apparenlty the day I had first seen her alone in trench in a complex urban site - was the first day she had ever put trowel to dirt!!. I was more appalled to hear that than I had been that first day in the field. (I was also more impressed with how quickly she had picked up what I was able to show her that first day- some real innate skills there).
So, my advice to anyone starting out - beware those folks Jennifer is talking about - they do exist and will be happy to take you on for minimum pay and provide you with no real help in bettering your skills. Always look to get partnered with someone with some experience who is willing to teach you. Now I'll sit back and see what other horror stories get shared =).
Post ID#19492 - replied 4/2/2012 7:24 AM
After spending more days then I care to think about analysing job postings I would add one caveat to the shady job postings. That is sometimes someone drops out of a project mid-way though, night before, etc. in this cases you will get some shady sounding job postings like "need someone for dig contact me at 555 – 555- 5555". Sometimes no company name or even name of the person to contact.
You can usually tell these as they say emergency hire, backstory about someone dropping out, etc. but they can come off as shady because the person is in a hurry and really will take most anyone.
Though I wouls still echo Jennifer and say becareful about jobs.
Post ID#19494 - replied 4/2/2012 4:34 PM
One thing I look for is companies that seem to be perpetually hiring for the same project. I take it as a red flag if a company can not keep their projects staffed and continually need to bring in new people. On a big project their is always some turnover and the scope of work can increase as time goes on requiring new hires, but if the same job posting seems to be coming up month after month their is usually a reason people aren't sticking around. I've taken jobs that I've seen advertised over and over and once I got there the working environment was so bad it was easy to see why so many people had come and gone from that job. I find most companies worth working for try to hire same people again and again for their experience and quality of work, and do their best to try and keep those people around.

@DougRM - Oh sure, a lot of those "quick need to fill a slot" jobs have been posted. I've responded to a few of those myself. Sometimes you don't find out the particulars until you initially respond to an advertisement. What is troubling is when a company still won't cough up information even after you've talked them. Instant red flag.
@Ro-Ro - an excellent point about companies that always seem to be hiring for the same position. Makes you wonder what is going on. Are they unable to hold onto their crew because of low pay, conditions, lack of work?
On a general note, I would add that it's important to obtain feedback from your friends/fellow archaeologists about a potential employer. I know there are exceptions to this, as some reports of "bad" companies may stem from a particular experience with one individual (field supervisor, PI, whoever) that may no longer be employed at the firm. However, if you've heard several negative reports about a company, it's a good idea to exercise caution. There are a few times I've taken work against my better judgment (because I needed a job!) and have come to regret the decision.
Some of the best companies I've ever worked for have rarely, if ever advertised open positions. Just something else to consider.

I know there is always a certain amount of settling on a newly formed crew (especially on a large project), but what really grinds my gears as a relatively more experienced tech is that I usually end up having to train someone who is completely green, but getting paid the same amount as me, and maintain my own performance level, or worse still, have to babysit an incompetant crew chief who was hired on the basis that they were "RPA eligble" and always wants to ask what I think we should do.
Some companies hire at a single rate for techs on the principle of equality and some hire on a graded scale based on an HR decision made off of what they see on paper which is seldom thoroughly verified. Somehow it seems a little unfair either way.
I don't mind helping newbies and giving a few pointers, but it is not in my job description and I am certainly not paid any extra for doing it. This is most upsetting when you realize that a field school is the minimum gold standard and it almost neber includes how to do basic transect of shovel tests (including my own). When these field schools are "acredited" does that mean they meet a checklist of criteria or they are just run by an acredited institution?
