Innovation Hub: 10 Years After the Larry Summers Controversy
Ten years ago, Harvard's then-president, Larry Summers, wondered why women are so scarce in elite math and science departments. Is it because they're less ambitious than men? Or, perhaps, they're less inclined to be extremely smart? His comments caused a national... Read more »

Market conditions in Australia are beginning to improve, albeit gradually. Following the conclusion of Australia's election process in September 2013, uncertainty over its outcome was lifted and a number of investors returned to the markets as a result. The real estate sector is benefiting from a large amount of inbound foreign investment from Asian countries, particularly China. Corporate activity has remained steady, largely underpinned by a noticeable uptick in equity capital markets transactions. Government activity is also driving a lot of work, notably in the TMT sector and on construction and infrastructure projects.
The resources space continues to underperform, with legal work in this sector focusing on existing projects, as well as on restructuring matters.
Thomsons Lawyers merged with Herbert Geer to form Thomson Geer, forming the seventh-largest independent firm by number of lawyers. In another notable development, HWL Ebsworth expanded its national coverage with the acquisition of South Australian firm Kelly & Co.
Although the pace of foreign firms' arrival has slowed, the impacts of these aggressive entries into the market over the past few years are still being felt. Notable hires include Beau Deleuil leaving his role of global head of dispute resolution at King & Wood Mallesons to join Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP, and Darren Fooks moving from Clayton Utz to establish Baker & McKenzie LLP's new Brisbane office.

Walking a fine line in China:Distinguishing between legitimate commercial deals and commercial bribe
China in the 21st century exemplifies an atmosphere of great opportunity and intense competition. Against this backdrop, it has become increasingly common for businesses to adopt a variety of practices in order to make their products and services competitive. Such practices may include paying middle-men to promote sales and giving incentives to buyers directly. However, whilst revenue spikes are undoubtedly welcome, businesses should bear in mind the potential backlash arising out of these commercial arrangements. The risk that such arrangements may not comply with anti-bribery and corruption laws and therefore cause business significant damage in the long term should not be underestimated. -

Degenerative Scoliosis
Symptoms | Tests for Diagnosis | Treatment | Prognosis
Scoliosis is a condition when the spine has one or more curves, measuring at least 10 (see SCOLIOSIS). The causes of both conditions can be congenital or be acquired, and the forms can be mild or severe as to how they affect stability and comfortable movement of the lumbar spine. Scoliosis occurs for different medical reasons, but all of them result in the spine acquiring a deviation from its normal vertical line and some degree of rotation. Degenerative scoliosis is caused by degenerative changes in the spinal discs and facet joints. The spine loses some amount of mechanical competence, which allows the deforming curves to develop.
Signs and symptoms include back pain, and sometimes leg pain and limping (claudication), due to nerve root irritation (radiculopathy) and spinal stenosis. There is also disc space narrowing, osteophyte formation and other signs of degenerative spine disease, or spondylosis. A spondylolisthesis, or forward slippage of a vertebra, may also be present (see above).
While many of the characteristics of degenerative scoliosis can be detected on X-ray, myelography and post-myelogram CT images can offer better anatomic detail, which may be important when spinal stenosis is also suspected. Evaluation of the spinal canal with MRI is of limited use with advanced scoliosis.
Nonoperative treatment consists of anti-inflammatory medications for pain, activity modification, and a prescribed regimen of therapy. A brace may be tried for relief of pain and if significant instability or deformity is present.
If these measures fail to improve the patientÍs condition or level of comfort and activity or back or leg pain becomes intractable over a prolonged period of time, surgical intervention is indicated. Surgery usually includes both decompression of compressed nerve elements and spinal fusion, with partial correction of the scoliosis using metallic implants.
Some of the risk factors for progression of degenerative scoliosis are an existing scoliotic curve of greater than 30 degrees, significant rotation of the spine, and severe osteoporosis.

What a Difference a Week Makes: Kentucky Pioneers Healthy Baby Efforts
Ruth Ann Shepherd, MD, division director for maternal and child health in the Kentucky Department for Public Health, was an early pioneer in recognizing the critical public health problem of preterm births in Kentucky, and that the troubling trend was common to most states in the country. Dr. Shepherd's research revealed that babies born at 37 or 38 weeks had far worse health outcomes than babies born at 39 or 40 weeks. With support from the leadership at the Kentucky Department of Health, and many other organizations who have since taken up the cause of helping to create conditions for healthier babies, many states are beginning to make strides in preventing early births. Last week, Dr. David Lakey acknowledged her leadership in preventing preterm birth and infant mortality by awarding her the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) Presidential Meritorious Service Award.
Charles Kendell, MPA, chief of staff at the Kentucky Health Department, accepted the award on behalf of Dr. Shepherd, who was unable to attend the ASTHO meeting. NewPublicHealth caught up with Kendall to get his take on Kentucky's role in catalyzing a national movement around healthier babies.
NewPublicHealth: Tell us about the award Dr. Shepherd received and what it was for.
Kendell: The award today was given by David Lakey as President of ASTHO for the last year. The Presidential Meritorious Service Award is given at the ASTHO president's discretion for those he feels have contributed the most to the President's Challenge that he or she has championed for the year. This year, he awarded it Dr. Ruth Shepherd, who was one of the early advocates for doing something about the prematurity birth rates in the country.
Dr. Shepherd has long championed that concern, and it was through her efforts that much of the initial data and advocacy and publicity about the issue became apparent to a lot of people. Through the connection of Dr. Shepherd to David Lakey, he was able to put a voice and a voice to the issue through his presidency. It's really taken off from there, and connected with an awful lot of people.
NPH: What did the data Dr. Shepherd uncovered show?

The Problem With Conferences
Seth Godin takes conference organizers to task in his post, "How to Run a Useless Conference". He claims that conferences aim to satisfy the middle of the bell curve with a goal of "avoiding failure" by being "average" and relying on speakers relating a litany facts as opposed to emotional storytelling. True enough, but maybe not for the reasons Godin supposes.
Then, Marc Babej takes Seth to task for sloppy thinking in his response, "Getting Godin's Facts Straight". Agreed.
Facts are important at most, if not all conferences. In some cases, like conferences where gaining CEUs are the featured draw, facts are far more necessary than emotion. Although I can't think of a conference where a bit more emotion on the part of the presenters (and organizers) wouldn't hurt.
An exec from Blogweld, a software company, chimes in with a tidbit from his own experience - that conferences are much more valuable forums for discussion when the "facts" have been distributed to attendees in advance. Interesting point.
I care less about whether Godin or Babej is right and more about the fact that we're having the conversation at all. In the tens of millions of conversations happening in the blogospehere every day, discussion about the role and value of conferences in marketing and continuing education is virtually non-existent. So if top bloggers and thought leaders are bashing conference organizers... as they say, all press is good press.
This is the type of conversation we need more of. Enough with all of us on the inside comparing notes at our own conferences. Hopefully others will jump into this conversation and put in their two cents. I'd love to hear from top marketers outside our industry on the good/bad/indifference of what we do for a living.
I'd even promote the idea of getting Godin or Tom Peters or someone of their ilk to come in as a keynote presenter and bash our industry in front of everyone at IAEM. But... they'd then have to stick around for the whole event. Take in as many sessions as possible. Take notes on what they think would make us better. Perhaps even empower them to stop a session midstream and suggest, "I think we'd have a better conversation if we did this..."
Now that would be atypical.
I'll note one thing. In our industry, way back in the 80s, the legendary Anver Suleiman used to run a wonderful conference on event marketing. It was both fact-based and emotional. As were the examples of effective marketing he would showcase in his conferences. In the past 20 years we've stopped having engaging conversations on marketing at our events.
And not conincidentally, I believe our event marketing has suffered from it.

Then just do it!

I definitely think that the conference business is in need of some unconventional thinking. It's still undetermined, from my research, if business is up or down.
What is clear, however, is that there are any number of events cropping up that don't fit the traditional mold that also are delivering huge value to the attendees (and occassionally the exhibitors).
The real problem is not having these conversations, I think, but making them have an impact on the industry itself.
Posted by: Gregory Narain | Nov 14, 2005 2:31:23 PM
Hi, actually our company is called Frameweld and our blog is named Blogwelder.
It would make for a great event to have someone like Godin or Tom Peters critique your event in real time. And you would walk away with a lot of good feedback.
But you can get a lot of discussion and helpful advice from cheaper and more abundant resources. Check with vendors and attendees and the grunts who do the legwork. If you found my thought interesting, I have another 20 of them. People who are exposed to these events much more than I will probably have 10x the useful feedback.

ENG 226 Gender Roles in Literature
This course examines how authors throughout history and across cultures have used imaginative literature not only to portray the roles of men and women in society, but also to call attention to the boundaries of those roles. The course texts raise questions such as: What is biological sex, and how does it differ from gender? What does it mean to be male, to be female, and to be interest? How do we define "masculinity" and "femininity"? Through reading and discussion, students will explore the ideological roots that inform these texts while simultaneously connecting their themes to contemporary life and society.

The Benefits of Plugging Your Grass
Plugging is one of the simplest and most economical ways to establish a new lawn, convert a troubled lawn, or repair a damaged lawn. Grass plugs have a complete root system and are easier to establish than sod. Moisture is probably the most important consideration immediately after planting. Adjust watering to climatic conditions. Without rainfall, grass plugs should be watered daily for the first 7 to 10 days. Soil and plug moisture must be maintained. Consult with your gardening expert about the desired amount of water. Root-in will occur in approximately 14-20 days during cool months and 7-14 days during warm months.
Don't be afraid to mow a new lawn. After the turf begins to grow, mow at recommended heights. By mowing early and not letting excessive grass accumulate, the texture will be finer, many upright weeds will be killed, the turf will become more dense, and lateral spread will increase.
Operating Instructions
1. Water the area before digging and planting. It makes the soil easier to work with and makes the ground a moist host for the sod plug roots.
2. Position the Sod Plugger where new plug is to be placed. Step down on side foot bar to cut hole. Lift up tool to remove soil core. Remove soil core by pressing down on ejector handle.
3. Cut transplant plug from existing lawn or from new sod. Leaving the grass plug in the tool, position the Sod Plugger in the prepared hole. Press on ejector handle to insert new plug into hole.
4. Tap the plug firmly into place by stepping on it.
5. Keep plugs moist until they are well established.
6. Plant in a checkerboard pattern 12″ apart.

It has been a while since we have seen the rotund yellow chomper in his own game. However, the fine folks over at Namco Bandai are bringing him back in PAC-MAN and the Ghostly Adventure!

Earlier this year, we followed the progress of the JOBS (Jumpstart Our Business Startups) Act as an example of how business should get done in Washington, DC. Most of the attention has been--and continues to be--focused on crowdfunding and how it can help startups and small businesses raise capital to launch and grow their businesses.
A tip of the PDE cap goes out to Innovation America and Venture Beat for spotting a new infographic from Fundable that attempts to explain the JOBS Act and crowdfunding. Fundable, a startup focused on helping other startups acquire capital by crowdfunding, takes a look at the key provisions of the legislation, typical sources of funding and even some interesting milestones in the history of crowdfunding.

Dark Star Orchestra
In association with Point Entertainment
Tue. May 19, 2015 at 7:30 pm
*This is a general admission event.
erforming to critical acclaim worldwide for nearly 15 years and over 2,000 shows, Dark Star Orchestra continues the Grateful Dead concert experience. Their shows are built off the Dead's extensive catalog and the talent of these 7 fine musicians. On any given night the band will perform a show based on a set list from the Grateful Dead's 30 years of extensive touring or use their catalog to program a unique set list for the show. This allows fans both young and old to share in the experience. By recreating set lists from the past, and by developing their own sets of Dead songs, Dark Star Orchestra offers a continually evolving artistic outlet within this musical canon. Honoring both the band and the fans, Dark Star Orchestra's members seek out the unique style and sound of each era while simultaneously offering their own informed improvisations.
Dark Star Orchestra offers much more than the sound of the Grateful Dead, they truly encapsulate the energy and the experience. It's about a sense of familiarity. It's about a feeling that grabs listeners and takes over. It's about that contagious energy... in short, it's about the complete experience and consistent quality show that the fan receives when attending a Dark Star Orchestra show.
Dark Star Orchestra has performed throughout the United States and Europe. They continue to grow their fan base by playing at larger venues for two and even three night stands as well as performing at major music festivals including Bonnaroo, All Good Festival, Gathering of the Vibes, Mountain Jam, Summer Camp, Wakarusa and 10,000 Lakes. In addition, Dark Star Orchestra hosts its own annual gathering, Dark Star Jubilee, where they headline three nights and are joined by a mix of established and up and coming national touring acts.
Fans and critics haven't been the only people caught up in the spirit of a Dark Star show. The band has featured guest performances from five original Grateful Dead members Bob Weir, Bill Kreutzmann, Donna Jean Godchaux-MacKay, Vince Welnick, Tom Constanten and even toured with longtime Dead soundman, Dan Healy. Other notable guests have included Mike Gordon and Jon Fishman of Phish, Keller Williams, Warren Haynes, Steve Kimock, Peter Rowan, Ramblin' Jack Elliot and many more.

"Robin Spielberg has an undeniable melodic gift" says New York Concert Review of Ms. Spielberg's Carnegie Hall debut.
A prolific composer, Spielberg has sixteen recordings to her credit and appears on over 40 compilations around the world. Her discography includes albums of original piano solos, arrangements of American standards, original pieces for piano/ensemble, recordings for the holidays, a CD of Americana melodies, and a CD of lullabies.

An Evening with DaNica Shirey
Featuring Shrimpboat
Fri. Feb 6, 2015 at 7:30 pm
America met York County local DaNica Shirey on NBC's "The Voice" and she will now return to The Pullo Center to perform a full length concert. DaNica will be performing with the band Shrimpboat (www.shrimpboatband.com) during this February concert.
DaNica inherited her love of music from her father, who was her manager and best friend. After his passing three years ago, DaNica took some time off from music, got engaged and had a child. She auditioned for The Voice in hopes of honoring her dad and getting her music career moving again. After being featured on the second audition show of the hit NBC series, DaNica landed a spot on team Pharrell. This was quite the achievement for the now 25 year old stay-at-home mom. Finding herself back in the spotlight after three and a half years, DaNica has continued to receive praise from all of The Voice judges and impress audiences all across the country.
with special guests Sir Sly & Colony House
Sat. Feb 14, 2015 at 8:00 pm
The brothers KONGOS -- multi-cultural, multi-faceted, multi-instrumentalists -- craft a unique and irresistible sound spawned from shared DNA, diverse influences and spot-on melodic and lyrical sensibilities. On "Lunatic," their 12-song Epic Records debut, the band's talent shines on "Come With Me Now"; the title an impossible-to-resist aural summons, the rock-alt crossover tune kicking off with the accordion, jumping into foot-stomping, staccato rhythms, slide guitar, and soaring epic soundscapes reminiscent of U2. "I'm Only Joking," whose lyrics hint at the album's title, hits the mark with decisive tribal rhythms and Pink Floyd-esque mysterious modern rock. Thanks to an earlier self-release of "Lunatic," KONGOS are already stars overseas, playing their numerous hits off "Lunatic" for crowds of up to 65,000 at South African festivals and touring the Republic with Linkin Park, and the UK and Europe with AWOLNATION and Dispatch. With a Feb-March North American tour with Airborne Toxic Event and alternative and rock radio hot on "Come With Me Now" and "I'm Only Joking," (not to mention "Come With Me Now" in promos for NFL, NBA and ESPN), 2014 is quickly shaping up as the year the U.S. catches KONGOS fever.

Chester FC's Ryan Higgins sets sights on play-off chase
Right-back reckons Blues can challenge top sides after Lincoln win
Chester FC is a supporter-owned football club based in Chester. The club was founded in 2010 after Chester City FC was wound up in the High Court. The club, which plays its home games at the Swansway Chester Stadium, began its inaugural season in the Northern Premier League First Division North following a successful appeal to the FA against its initial placement in the North West Counties League. Since forming, Chester FC has been successive league champions of the Northern Premier League First Division North (2010–11), Northern Premier League Premier Division (2011–12) and the Conference North (2012–13).

I ordered and received a D. Capensis Red about a week ago.
It came in a plastic "dome" (it was a transparent, plastic cup) in which contained my new CP. When I lifted the cup, I could smell the aroma from all the dews and it made me delighted. But being a total newbie, I did not know anything about plant shock back then and could only wonder why the plant wasn't producing any mucus. How long will my plant be in shock? (It has been about a week so far) I have been constantly giving it distilled water and placed it under three lamps (one 16 watt coiled fluorescent lamp and two 60 watt "plant lights" that use incandescent bulbs). Also, is my lighting appropriate?
Lastly, what would help my CP to produce some mucus? Will simply overcoming the humidity/shipping(it was in a box for three days) shock give rise to mucus? I will post some pictures.
The CPL light I'm looking at:

It usually can take a few weeks for a plant to over come the shock. Your plant looks pretty healthy and I would think the reason why it isn't producing any dew is because the humidity is too low. I would see this in my grow tent in my house over the winter when my 600Watt MH light turned on and zapped the humidity level. After I installed a sealed air ducted hood they wouldn't lose their dew. Try putting the pot on some pebbles to increase the humidity. If that doesn't do it then I would hope the new traps that grow will be adapted to the environment to give off dew. -Best Wishes- |

We downsized years ago and converted 3 season lakeside cottage to a 4 season dwelling. Had the opportunity to install whole house HVAC system then but didn't think it necessary as we didn't see this as a long term living option. Have decided this will be the place for as many years to come as possible. Currently have: Wood stove in main living area, Dilemma is that our insurance provider is telling me to get wood stove to code or remove it within 90 days then fire insurance is null and void after that date, my choice. Cost will be approximately $5000.00 and higher to upgrade to code The current heating is adequate 95% of the time. When hurricane force winds blow off Lake Erie I need to keep that stove going at full capacity which is not great as I am getting closer to collect my Canada Pension. As well electrical auxiliary heaters are cranked to 1500w. Even then might need to wear a Toque. I will need to get ductwork into walls and herein lies the problem. The municipality is telling me I need a minimum 4" duct work to supply the registers, exterior walls are a full 4" 2x4 which is fine but tight, all interior wall are dimensionally 1.75 " x 3.5". A 4" duct won't fit. Contractor tells me to bring the drywall out to accommodate the ducts across the entire wall(s) or create bumpouts where the lines will go! Heat loss calculations tell me I need about 80K BTU without the NG fireplace on. Don't have much space for a full size furnace which will go in the upper level horizontal mount. If I use the NG fireplace (30,000 Btu) Can I get away with a micro furnace as seen in southern applications? Had one in a closet in South Florida. There aren't many smaller furnaces available up here. I'm only 2 hours from Buffalo but warranty issues are a huge hassle when taking products from US into Canada. Hope I have given enough info here and after reading back sorry about the lengthy post. Any suggestions folks. Thank you Johnny D ( I know, what's a toque?) |

Toque is a brimless hat. If you want to use a micro furnace, you'd need to significantly improve the insulation. Think along the lines of a passive house. Compressing flexible duct will reduce the air flow. |

Thanks for the quick response davidtay. What I need to research is what I can purchase here in a smaller unit or just go ahead and install the unit that will do the job properly, which I really know is the correct decision. Grasping at straws hoping you were going to tell me there is a new nuclear powered unit that would fit in the palm of my hand. Thinking clearly today I know drywall is coming off and there are going to be challenges regardless of duct size to install ductwork insitu. I know my design oriented dear wife will be none to happy. Simply pulling Roxul out and putting ductwork into a cold exterior wall is going to give me a huge temp differential on that wall defeating the entire task at hand. Had 3 young lads out and each were weak in certain answers and solutions. We are rural here and I was lucky to have more than 2 HVAC guys out. Business is booming in construction in the urban areas and there are slim pickins rural. Didn't have wear a toque today, 54°F. |
I have noticed that the preferred method of heating in Ontario is forced hot air. The HG channel runs programs produced in the Toronto area, all of the houses are hot air. Friends in NB have steam or forced hot water, much like 75% of the houses in the Boston area. I can tell you it much easier to run and regulate a zoned forced hot water system than duct work, but the cost of the equipment is the killer. I grew up in a house in with forced hot air extremely dry and dusty. Curious , why is hot air so prevalent in your neck of the woods ? Is it quick recovery time ? |
- Posted by SouthernCanuck (My Page) on Fri, Mar 29, 13 at 21:20
Hello jonnyp, The quick answer to your question of the prevalence of forced hot air the preferred mode of heating here is the readily and relatively cheap Natural Gas available. Some rural areas have not yet had the infrastructure to supply NG, in those areas liquid propane is primarily used. Oil is almost extinct. It is very rare to see steam used but in the older cities it still can be found, mostly in old institutions and high and low rise residential. I've noticed on my travels east NB, NS, hydronics is seen most often, again I believe it may be the availability of NG or lack thereof. I had the option of forced hot water here when I remodeled and had the power vent hot water heater installed that was compatible with the As far as comfort, we grew up with forced air NG fired furnaces and it is very clean burning and dust has never been a problem even with first generation forced air NG or Propane. Oil when I was a kid and I know Mom hated it. What do you do for central air without duct work? I'm more concerned with getting rid of the portable AC units and being cool and dry from May to mid October, last hyear was mid March to November. I know how hot and muggy it can get in the Boston area without central air, spent many a summer in Revere Beach and Lynn Mass. |
Canuck I am from Lynn and still spend quite a bit of time there, although I no longer live there. I am in the process of converting from oil to NG. I have no gas in the house, utility is charging $500 to bring the line to the house. I currently have a 4 year old oil fired boiler at 85% efficiency with 4 zones. It is much more efficient than the original circa 1956 unit w/ 1 pump and three loops. Those oil bills are real killer, especially when I see a .20 cent increase per gallon month to month. We run about 1800 to 2200 a year for fuel (includes HW). I am going to a gas fired unit w/ 98% efficiency. Initial out lay is pricey , but it should pay for itself in 3 to 4 years. Typical gas for the year about 800. I do recall , as small child we had coal with a gravity fed hot air system. That unit was replaced w/ an oil furnace w/ a fan. I have been told that oil was much more economical than gas. My first house, circa 1870, had a cadillac 2 pipe steam system that was originally coal and converted to oil in 1955. I know this because of the date on the fuel oil permit. It also was built w/ gas lighting , city water and sewerage. As far as AC goes I have window units that get used a total of a week. I am 6 miles inland and still get the cooling effects of the ocean. Usually hot spells last no more than 3 to 4 days. My neighbor is getting quotes for central air, 5 grand is the typical price for a ranch, I cannot justify this expenditure for 7 to 10 days a year and my house is not a ranch. It's funny no matter where I go I run into someone from Lynn or with a connection. My accent is a dead give away that breaks the ice (pahk the cah Mahk). My wife and I were in Venice last year and sure enough somebody we met was quite familiar with the area. |
There are high velocity systems available which utilize 2" flexible duct work. This old house did a segment on it some time back. Nuclear power? If only Thorium reactors were available - no chance of a meltdown, should be small enough to fit into a closet... |

Thanks all, some great info. Lynn Mass, brings back some great memories like Crab Rolls on the beach for $1.50. I left a few brain cells behind at a place in Lynn called Jacob's Ladder in the 70's. Watch a Reno show Boston Flippers up here, always yelling to dear wife, I've been there honey, I know dear, go back to your program. |
- Posted by SouthernCanuck (My Page) on Sun, Mar 31, 13 at 14:04
Davidtay, What a unique solution the Spacepac system might be for me. I see I can get a 60k BTU unit. There is a rep in Toronto and will be definitely talking to them soon. I'm sure it's not the least expensive solution but need to know before dismissing them. Considering a single heat register is going for as high as $160.00 the least expensive being unfinished Maple at $25.00. Thank you again. |
Check out the high velocity systems carefully and speak to owners before proceeding that way. I've heard far more negatives than positives about them, I don't know if that's representative or not. Many installations result in an octupus structure of cheap flex ducts that leak like mad and are hard to balance. |
I agree with snidely. Two friends have the high velocity system, nothing but problems. One is sick of dealing with the issues he has resorted to window units. I also ran this by our HVAC design engineer, he gave me the hairy eyeball and shook his head, I heard him loud and clear. I work with tin knockers and I can tell you most jobs we layout the duct work. They have a habit of going from point A to B the easiest way possible, not very pretty . And they love flex duct, not efficient at all. Have you looked into ductless units, this maybe an option. There are several manufacturers with different sizes. Google it. The Ladder was in Revere. Flippers has done several episodes in Lynn, I drive by one of the houses every day . TOH has filmed several episodes in this area, the resident plumber is a clown. A close friend worked with him on the Salem reno, not a nice person and not as swift as he comes across. |

Johnnyp, I said I left behind some brain cells, I guess so many I forgot where I left them. As for the high velocity systems not much good feedback unfortunately, and very expensive to boot. |

They are demanding 4" duct. 4" X what? It doesn't make sense. There are various sizes of metal oval wall stack and a range of fittings that fit sometimes tightly but will fit in the common space a 2"X 4" provides on interior walls. Always avoid exterior walls if you can and fir them out to accommodate insulation behind the duct but only as a last resort. The objective is air delivery, not the "depth" of the duct. If you have 3.5" to work with in depth, typically you have at least 14" to work with in width. And oval stack delivers air with less turbulence than square or rectangular duct anyway. I would check again and get that "rule" clarified. Sounds bizarre to me. |

Thanks Snoringcow, I put a call in to talk to the one and only building inspector 2 weeks ago, and stopped by his office that is 30 miles away last week, no one home other than a receptionist that looked at me like I had 3 heads when I asked why he didn't get back to me. Her answer " jeez it's Maple syrup season ya know eh. He'll be back when he's boiled all the sap, eh " |

why does the ductwork need to be in the walls? if you put ducts in an exterior wall you lose no attic? no basement/crawlspace? what about building fur downs in the house could the hvac co run the ducts & you build the where will furnace be located inside the house? in these parts when sheet metal ducts were sheet metal is very leaky. every joint, every never have seen a sucessful high velocity minisplits are usually used in areas where best of luck |
I might be too cold in that region for air-to-air heat pumps to be economic compared to gas heat. If they will work at that outdoor temp, mini-splits might solve the problem. |
- Posted by SouthernCanuck (My Page) on Fri, Apr 5, 13 at 4:48
Energy Rater, I was hoping you would contribute, I find your posts very informative. I was told by one HVAC rep that it is important to have registers on the exterior walls, and yes I questioned the contradiction in so far as the insulation would be lost here and the delta T would be significant I believe. That is why he suggested boxing in the ductwork. I'm not familiar with the term "fur downs" is this what that term means? No attic, there is a loft 2/3 rds of the main living space, then vaulted for the balance. Space here is scarce. That's where I was planning to install the furnace either the smaller unit similar to one that is in a closet in south Florida. or a horizontal unit. No basement or crawl space. If I had a basement it would be done by now, maximum space under the floor is 24". Not an option. This new tablet I have is Windows8RT and I'm lucky to have just learned to download an image, no mouse no right click left click, let alone getting a image posted, it is on my things to learn list. A photo yes but nothing I would create in word. I have something up my sleeve thinking about it. will work on it. I do know that sealing ductwork is import. If I am able to put a hvac duct system in where I do not have to run ducting in an exterior wall (which I will be checking with the building dept. as soon as he's finished his maple syrup). I will start as soon as I determine the smallest furnace, by physical size not capacity , I can get away with. There are closets where I will box the lines in. I have access to the floor in the loft to run between the existing 2x8's and run returns. Install registers in the soffit above the cabinets and would use existing linen closet in kitchen to run a register to the floor if I can get away with only one more. And yes ionized, based on both return on investment and the poor performance of heat pumps in our area I don't think it's an option. I can get all the traditional forced air hvac equipment at wholesale. Believe it or not my kid brother has been in the HVAC business for over 30 years but has always refused to do business with family which he has always stuck to his guns on. That includes consultation. it was a bone of contention years ago but it's probably a good policy. I will buy the best product available to him for his invoice price at least. an after thought if I can find the highest blower I can get maximum cfm could I get away with all ceiling registers? again we are only talking about 1100 ft2 maximum. thanks again |
- Posted by energy_rater_la (My Page) on Fri, Apr 5, 13 at 12:50
two things... we both live in extreme climates. 1)we don't put ducts in exterior walls because of heat gain, you for cold gain. 2)we install ductwork on interior walls and blow the air to the exterior walls. old school (25+ years ago) locating supplies putting ductwork inside conditioned space having that simple drawing of the layout would would a mitisibushi mini split heat pump meet your requirements? "an after thought if I can find the highest blower I can get maximum cfm could I get away with all ceiling registers?" how's the temps there today??..we are in mid 60's.. best of luck. |
I don't know what your outdoor air temps are in winter, but check newer heat pump performance if you have not done it lately. http://www.mitsubishicomfort.com/media/226509/h2i_brochure.pdf Fur-downs and fur-outs would refer to building out enough space in a ceiling or wall to contain ducts. It is commonly done. Depending on your current lay-out, you might be able to design it so it is visually pleasing. That sometimes means using your imagination to make it look like it belongs there as a design element rather than a clumsy add-on for holding your ducts. A fur-down would include the soffit space you are considering. |

Thanks again have read replies and will get organized and post back as soon as possible to clarify my layman thoughts. Today temperatures ranged from 30F to a high of 45F.

so you could fur down the hallway & serve all downstairs rooms. This can be done nicely..it doesnt have to be ugly. I've seen fur downs used as nice detail, but it takes carpentry skills & the want to do it. do you have carpentry skills, or know a good finish you'd have to create space in closet or some other area gotta tell you...this is how I'd do it. it takes some time to I save 25% of cooling costs (hot humid climate) by best of luck. |
We don't know the nature of the finish detail or your preferred decor either so naked ducting of some sort might work better than hiding it! |
- Posted by energy_rater_la (My Page) on Mon, Apr 8, 13 at 17:26
I wouldn't want to have to clean it! I like the look..but it is easier to clean the fur downs. I'd rather cut grass than sweep the house! |
- Posted by SouthernCanuck (My Page) on Tue, Apr 9, 13 at 22:23
I just lost a post, my fingers are too big for touch screen, man! Too lengthy anyway. er Are you saying I only need registers in the hall where entrance is? I may be misunderstanding. ionized Naked duct. I can't wait until I google that. I can't thank all that have helped enough. |
No, nrg is saying that, since the hallway touches each room, the space in the lowered hall ceiling can carry air to each room. You can put a register in the walls that each room shares with the hallway. The lowered hallway ceiling might hide ducts or might be the plenum. I can not hope to advise on that kind of design details. Depending on what space you need, I'd be tempted to make the hall ceiling an architectural detail rather than evenly lower the whole ceiling if that is possible. That does make it more like naked duct and more cleaning-intensive, I suppose ;-) |

An emotional day at Sunny Acres as more than a dozen people find out they will have to find a new place to call home. They could be living in their cars or on the streets after this weekend.
The 70-acre ranch and sober-living facility has long been at odds with San Luis Obispo County code enforcement. Owner Dan Devaul says a judge ruled Thursday morning that all residents living outdoors or in unsafe structures must vacate the property. If not, he says the county will appoint a receiver, which means Devaul would lose control of his ranch.
Emotions were running high Thursday and many people told KSBY News they have no idea where they are going to be come Monday.
One by one Devaul told about 13 people they would need to leave the property. Devaul says he has been trying to comply with the county's orders by having people sleep outside rather than in makeshift sheds. It was a tough choice to make but when it comes down to it, Devaul said keeping control of his ranch is most important.
As for where his residents will go, one couple said they will have to live in their car. Others are just trying to avoid going back to the creek or the streets.
"I'm nervous because I don't know really what do do," said Robert Jenkins, who lives at Sunny Acres. "I haven't really had time to sort things out but I'm trying to just trust my God."
"I'm just numb, I'm forcing my way through it," said Devaul.
There is a large home on the property that can house about eight people so some residents will be able to stay. However most will have to leave. The last meal for them will be served Saturday at 5 p.m. and Devaul has said they must be off the property by Monday morning.
Sunny Acres is also in the process of trying to build a 14-bedroom home to use as a sober-living facility but the county says the project will only move forward once all of the code violations are taken care of.
