I made a partial mash that contained: 4lb Light DME 8oz Honey malt 8oz dextrin 1lb crystal 20 1lb Marris Otter 1lb of the DME was added at the start of boil, the other 3lbs were late additions. Got an OG of ~1.053. Fermentation was vigorous within 24 hours and has been sitting in the fermenter for 8 days. Used Safale S-04. I took a sample to test the SG and got just a hair under 1.02. Beer still tasted a little sweet and since I'm off the expected FG of 1.014 I swirled the fermenter and sealed it back up hoping to redistribute the yeast in case they went dormant on me. And hopefully it'll bring the SG down some more. It's possible I messed up the mash (was having some trouble getting the temp right) and got too many unfermentables out of it. Whatever. I'm transferring over to secondary and doing some dry hopping no matter what on Friday. It's still beer. But it got me thinking. I've seen the phrase "curse of the 1.02" said quite often around here recently, specifically in the case of people doing malt extracts. Is getting stuck at 1.02 a common issue, and what is the reason for it?
Well you've used a pretty good yeast. How old was the DME? After I went all grain I noticed I got better attenuation with all of my yeasts.
The very last extract IPA I made finished at 1.02 with Pacman. I haven't had that problem since I switched to all grain.
I encountered this curse on 2 of my first 3 batches. I ended up repitching yeast on both batches....I ended up hitting my target gravity on one, the other only came down a couple more points.
How is your fermentation temp control?
In my opinion, the 1.020 curse has to do mostly with malt extract and underpitching. First, extract usually contains unfermentables. For example, Briess malts already contain carapils. On top of this, you added dextrin malt AND crystal. As far as underpitching, one 11g packet is usually enough for a 5 gal 1.050 batch as long as you rehydrate it properly. Otherwise, use this pitching rate calculator.http://www.mrmalty.com/calc/calc.html
That can significantly hinder your fermentation progress. If you decide to re-pitch, be sure to get about 10 grams of Go-Ferm and follow the instructions on that when rehydrating the yeast. You might drop a few more points. The worst case scenario is that it changes nothing and you are out a couple more bucks.

Beast Of A Weed Creeping Across Midwest From South
It's a beast of a weed, creeping north into the Midwest from cotton country. Palmer amaranth can shoot up as high as 7 feet, and just one plant can produce up to a million seeds. Herbicide is increasingly futile against it, and the weed's thick stems and deep roots make it hard work to clear by hand.

30 Days in Sydney: A Wildly Distorted Account.
By Peter Carey.
Bloomsbury; 256 pages; $16.95 and £9.99
BLOOMSBURY'S new series of short travel books, the Writer and the City, is shaping up nicely. Peter Carey's "30 Days in Sydney" follows Edmund White's engaging book about Paris, "The Flâneur", which appeared last year. Like Mr White, Mr Carey writes about an adopted city, not his home town: he grew up in rural Victoria and has lived in New York for the past ten years. But Sydney still calls him. It is a place for which he harbours strong, if mixed, feelings.
Mr Carey touches down at Kingsford Smith airport with an idea of the form he wants his book to take. Tape recorder in hand, he will meet up with some old friends and ask them to talk about one of the four ancient elements: earth, air, fire and water.
His oddball pals oblige with often hilarious accounts of storms at sea, conflagrations on land and other hair-raising misadventures. These deftly link in with threads of narrative and history. Mr Carey's subtitle is "A Wildly Distorted Account", and, for all its apparent casualness, there's more than a hint here of the novelist's art.
"How can I hope to convey to any reader my idea of Sydney?" he muses.
This is disingenuous. "30 Days in Sydney" is the next best thing to, well, 30 days in Sydney.

Educated Workforces Spur Manufacturing Innovation
Ed. Note: At 11:00 AM EDT today, the President will deliver remarks on the need to focus on cross-cutting technologies that will enhance the global competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing and speed up ideas from the drawing board to the manufacturing floor. Watch live on WhiteHouse.gov/live.
While President Obama is talking about manufacturing in Pittsburgh today, cities around the country are working to link education and industry to create innovative products and high-tech jobs. This week, we heard from several cities about how an educated workforce is helping to grow the advanced manufacturing economy in their communities.
Cincinnati, Ohio Mayor Mark Mallory tells us about the importance of manufacturing in the local economy:
Advanced manufacturing is significant to Cincinnati's economy. GE aircraft engines are designed and built in the Cincinnati area and Cincinnatians created the cutting edge manufacturing techniques involved in the creation of Procter and Gamble paper products found in homes throughout the world. The advanced manufacturing sector will continue to be a key job creator for Cincinnati and I am encouraged by the President's continued focus on jobs.
In Atlanta, Georgia, Mayor Kasim Reed says:
Advanced manufacturing is a vital part of the Atlanta economy through its contribution to our tax base and creation of jobs for our citizens. A recent Georgia Tech study found that industrial employment accounted for about 15% of jobs inside the city of Atlanta. The cross sector partnership between Atlanta's manufacturing industries and educational institutions provides Atlanta with a competitive advantage for economic investment and growth. Investment in cutting edge emerging sectors is critical for expanding jobs and wages as well as preserving the competitive future of our national economy.
Greenville, South Carolina lets us know:
Greenville has one of the highest number of engineers per capita in the United States. This engineering pool coupled with one of the top technical schools, Greenville Technical College, along with Clemson graduates, allows our local industry to innovate at a faster rate. "Education and advanced manufacturing go hand in hand. A strong, linked education system is creating tomorrow's innovators, which is essential to the stability and growth of advanced manufacturing," says Mayor Knox White. "This has been proven in Greenville where the manufacturing sector led income growth during this year's first quarter."
In Huntsville, Alabama, Mayor Tommy Battle shares news of local manufacturing growth:
Raytheon will break ground soon on a new missile production facility. Another Huntsville company, Dynetics, is nearing completion of a new facility for the production of micro-satellites. This growth is happening in Huntsville, Alabama right now thanks to a highly-skilled, highly educated workforce – illustrating the importance that innovation and advanced manufacturing will always play in the growth of our local and national economy.

I found partsgeek.com when I did a google search to find a clutch kit for my beloved old '89 Honda Civic hatchback. I saved so much that I was also able to afford to buy 2 new struts for the hatch,...
I am very happy with the price and service. I got the parts much faster then expected and about $150 less (ignition coil and starter) then the next best price I could find. Thank you very much. ...

Barry's "The Great Influenza" is the story of the influenza pandemic of 1918, the worst pandemic in history. With upper estimates of the global death toll topping an astonishing 100 million people, the Spanish flu outbreak of 1918 made the Black Death of the Middle Ages, for example, look like a family outbreak of a cold that was difficult to shake over the weekend. The Spanish Flu killed more people than died in World War I and more than the tens of millions who have died, to date, in the AIDS pandemic. While his focus was primarily on the USA, Barry tries to tell us about the general context of history in 1918 and the specific state of medicine of the day, the madly rushed epidemiological research that took place as a result of the illness, the successes and failures of the efforts that were taken to stem the inexorable progress of the virus as it marched around the world claiming its victims and the heroism of the front line medical staff that attempted to deal with the immediacy of the dying and the dead that filled the halls of the hospitals and overflowed into the streets.
Interesting? Unquestionably. Frightening? You bet ... and down to your very toes. "The Great Influenza" tells us in all too graphic terms about the extent to which we are currently susceptible to a repeated global pandemic as a result of some new deadly strain of a mutated virus. But was it compelling page turning reading or great writing? I'm afraid not. Writing great history is a very special skill that requires an author to turn dates, facts and events into something that reads like a suspense novel. Pierre Berton can do it. Simon Winchester can do it. Ken McGoogan can do it. For my money, the list of authors that can achieve this feat is really quite short and, sadly, John Barry didn't make the cut. Barry's research was clearly extensive and his tale of the events were exhaustive but it was also, frankly, quite exhausting.
Highly recommended for the information value of its content but it was neither fun nor easy to read.

Hi I live on the MS Gulf Coast and am planning an extravagant english garden for spring, would love people in southern mississippi to tell me what grows well for them, I live just a block off the beach in Ocean Springs. I want to know what you grow sucessfully as far as perennials, and bloomers. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi, mississippibelle. I don't have my yard yet, but will be moving into our new house soon. Meeting the landscaper next week to see what he's got planned. We'll be in Pass Christian, but the house Katrina took was in Long Beach, MS. We were close to the beach, and I loved my yard. I had sago palms, crepe myrtles, Indian hawthorne, grey juniper, fatsia, holly, etc. During the summer, I had lovely yellow shrimp plants, impatiens, angelwing begonias, vinca/periwinkle, etc. Winter consisted of tall snapdragons of every hue, pansies, etc. After renting in a crummy complex for the last two years, I am so ready to get in my own yard and try new things, as well as old. What are you planting for fall bloom? Look forward to hearing from you. |

While I was watching Mitt Romney make up fantasy positions in the foreign policy debate, I had a fantasy of my own.
And given the electoral isthmus the two men are wrestling on, it doesnt seem like such a wild one. There is growing buzz that the dead heat could slide into a deadlock.
If Romney does suspend voter disbelief enough to tie President Barack Obama, with each getting 269 Electoral College votes, the Republican-controlled House would determine the president and give it to Mitt. And the (presumably) Democratic-controlled Senate would determine the vice president and give it to Joe Biden.
So the first election decided by Congress in more than a century would produce a Republican president handcuffed to a Democratic vice president.
I think we can count on Good Ol Joe to devote himself to tormenting President Mittens. When Romney begins his I, Willard ... at the inauguration, Joe can howl like a banshee, Thats a bunch of malarkey!
When Biden sits behind Romney at his first State of the Union address, in that familiar tiered TV shot, the vice president can guffaw and roll his eyes and slap his knee and put his head in his hands and wave a sign behind Mitts slick head that reads, Bunch of stuff. I think we can count on Joe to ignore an enraged Tagg shaking his fist from the gallery.
A historic tie, which would spur demonstrations that would make the health care battle look like the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade, seems a logical conclusion of the bitter partisan paralysis here and the bottom-feeding campaign, where hope has been chased out by lies on one side and character exaggeration on the other.
And why is the race so perilously close, given the dizzying fall of W. and the dizzying rise of Obama, a mere four years ago?
It is partly because of Obamas endless odyssey of self-discovery, where he rattles around in his own head, trying to figure out who he is and why hes stuck on a Denver debate stage, forced to justify himself in this clownish format against this shape-shifting chucklehead.
At the first debate, the president gave off such a feeling of ennui, he could have used a fainting couch. It suddenly made many voters who thought it only fair that Obama get another term, given the mountain of trouble W. had left behind, wonder if that second chance would be embraced with energy, imagination and zest.
And the race is vise-tight because Mitts a marvel. Never in modern memory has a presidential candidate so brazenly contorted himself, switching positions to suit the moment and pushing claims, like about Obamas imaginary apology tour, that have been debunked.
But as Bill Clinton warned the Obama team last year, attacking Romney as a flip-flopper, as the president did Monday night in Boca Raton, can help Mitt with centrist voters who like the idea that hes actually a sheep in Wolfowitz clothing.
Forgoing his Klingon rhetoric, Mitt played cling-on to Obamas Spock, suddenly clutching onto the presidents positions on China, Iran, the Afghanistan deadline, drones and ousting Hosni Mubarak. Romney was running so far to the left of Obama that he never even mentioned the tangled White House response to the Benghazi consulate slaughter, which Republicans on the Hill have been working tirelessly to tee up for him.
In the surest sign that Mitt had donned a more soothing costume, he even made a flattering reference to the United Nations, the bete noire of his hawkish neocon foreign policy advisers.
But it was no doubt the neocons who coached Romney to sheath the bayonet to neutralize Obama charges of warmongering. In The Weekly Standard, Bill Kristol urged Mitt to be pre-presidential. (Sort of like pre-emptive war.) He advised Romney to speak at the debate in a bipartisan way and appeal to the broad American tradition of international leadership, and to the actions of Harry Truman as well as those of Ronald Reagan. He advised praising our diplomats and finding something to praise in the actions of President Obama.
Very sneaky.
Obama blew the first debate because he cant stand the phoniness of jousts, and he seemed flummoxed by the mind-boggling phoniness of Romney. For the first time, we see President Cool unable to keep his feelings completely cloaked. In Boca, his dark eyes were glaring daggers at Romney, who was sporting his smarmy smile and mine-is-bigger-than-yours flag pin.
If Romney gets to the Situation Room, will we see Cipher Mitt, the vessel of the neocons? Or will we see Moderate Mitt, chastising the hawks who are eager to pick up where they left off bombing, in Iran and Syria with a variation on the line he used about al-Qaida at the debate: We cant kill our way out of this mess?
Its impossible to know. Mitt may have made so many compromises to get the prize that he doesnt have a true self anymore. And thats the scariest thought of all.

Charter Schools No Cure-All for Black Students, Says Study
Despite being promoted as a viable alternative to traditional public schools, privately owned charter schools in Texas have higher attrition rates for black students than comparable urban public schools, says a University of Texas at Austin study.

When President Barack Obama announced his Race to the Top program in the summer of 2009, the national conversation seemed to focus solely on one issue, teacher incentive pay.

I have recently developed really problematic skin. Like, it's really dry around my nose and on my forehead. But my chin and cheeks get super oily. Anyway, I had breaking out a lot recently, and a friend of mine recommended this. I was so excited to buy it because I've heard amazing things about it. Plus it's super cheap. But after a week of using it, it made my dry areas even worse! I had red spots all over, and it was so itchy. It didn't really help my acne either. So I definitely wouldn't buy this again!
I have only been using this for about a week so I didn't give it 5 stars..yet. I will update my review in about another week since that's how long it takes for my skin to react to a cleanser. I needed this cleanser after having countless bad experiences with milky cleansers. I had been using a gel cleanser by yonka which dried me out horribly, but the milky cleanser along with another high end coconut milk cleanser broke me out despite the fact it was gentle. The milky ones would probably be better suited for dry skin, but mine is dehydrated and I know the two need different types of treatment. ANYWAY I had a hard time coping with the fact that my skin just does not like or react well to all natural products, because even though they are organic and good for the earth, my skin still had adverse reactions to the ingredients or fragrances. Sad face. I liked the cetaphil gentle cleanser back in the day but decided I wanted to try something even more basic, so I decided to give this bar non-soap cleanser a try. So far I like it a lot because I can use it on my body and face, and it does not make my skin itchy like some bars (ahem Dove soap). I can't believe a bar cleanser could be so gentle and non-irritating, because even the cetaphil gentle cleanser a times could leave me red. I still can't be sure if cetaphil is just a marketing ploy by skin companies and derms but it seems galderma, manufacturer of differin, kind of knows what it is doing. For people who are put off by the ingredients, Kiehls is no different despite their claim to be using ingredients from natural origin. Point is, give it a try if you have reactive, somewhat irritated or blemished skin like me, it will not make anything worse and may even improve the situation.

More reviews by FrogPrincess1987
I'm having to rewrite a lot of my reviews because at the time of writing them I had just given birth and my skin was all out of wack. After using this for a while I have come to the conclusion that this is truly a gentle cleansing soap. At night to remove my makeup I use a cream cleanser and in the morning I like to use a soap. This doesn't overly dry out my already dry skin. I don't feel excessivley tight, just clean. At first I did not like the smell but I have come to actually enjoy it. It was an aquired preference. I like this soap only downfall is that its almost $5 a bar.
I adore this product. I have very sensitive, very dry skin. Cetaphil is one of the very few products that doesn't irritate my skin. I keep bar by all the sinks in the house and use it as hand soap as well as in the shower.
It's really gentle!
After I used a horrible cleanser that left my skin with aching rashes, I used it, and after a couple of days my skin was back to what it was.
I think I'd always go back to this soap, even though it's not one of the best and doesn't do much for the skin.
Nothing has controlled my acne AND eczema better than this product. It is gentle enough not to irritate my sensitive skin, yet cleansing enough to clear up my acne. I use it for my face and body and it works wonderfully for both. It's also a steal at less than 4 dollars a bar (or 3 for about $9 in a value pack). Amazing!
I used this to shave my legs tonight and underarms (I'm a shaving gel kinda person but I ran out D:) My legs are super smooth and soft. Definite rebuy.
Okay, so I used this product tonight for the very first time and I probably can't fully attest to how awesome it is just yet, but it is already making my very irritated skin feel so much better! I have hypersensitive skin and recently had a bad allergic reaction to some foundation. I started looking into products that may help heal my skin and so far, couldn't be happier with my choice. I used this product along with the original cetaphil moisturizer and once the lotion set it, my skin started to feel smooth, balanced, and noticeably less red. And that's saying a lot considering I have combination/acne prone skin too! I will update this review after I use this regimen longer, but it seems to be a miracle worker so far. If you're on the hunt for ultra-gentle, affordable products, this is a definite must-try for soothing finicky sensitive skin. :)
UPDATE: Been using this bar along with the moisturizing lotion for a few days now and have noticed that it has helped calm my skin- no more redness or irritation. But other than that, it hasn't helped heal my existing rough patches/pimples nor caused me to break out... it's just been extremely basic and the lotion is somewhat greasy. I started using witch hazel as a toner with it, which has helped somewhat. So, if you are using stronger acne medications and need something to help soothe your skin, I'm sure this works wonders. But I was looking for a supplemental, gentle regimen that can replace the Neutrogena stuff I was using previously and this has been kind of disappointing.
I have dry skin and this was WAAAAY too drying for me.Tthe lotion cleanser, on the other hand, works just fine wtihout drying. Good for mornings. Not effective for removing makeup imho.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
What else can I say, this stuff rocks. Doesn't strip my skin of moisture (I have very very dry skin). I have a lot of problems with eczema, and my dermatologist told me to use this as a cleanser. It doesn't upset my eczema either. For $3 a bar, which lasts half a year, you really can't go wrong with this cleanser! It's not flashy or fancy, just a basic white cleansing bar, but what it does for my complicated skin is worth it's weight in gold!

The second course in the Core explores commonalities and differences in the "language of materials." Emphasis is placed on visual and conceptual aspects of materials and material process. This makes for interesting investigations and explorations within and across mediums. Historically materials and processes are connected with the evolution of function and meaning. The class will explore inherent physical properties that may bring content and depth to ideas borne of the medium itself. Students continue the process of research and ideation using these common themes, and explore through experimentation. Each student's individual voice begins to emerge. Fundamental techniques will be explored and practiced, stressing the practice of the maker. Idea books/sketchbooks will continue to be worked on as an important part of the creative process.

Beyond Incrementalism: The Case of Arlington, Virginia
Peter Garforth, Principal, Garforth International, LLC
I am going to talk about buildings as components of a community, as opposed to stand-alone energy objects. Rather than speak in generalities, I will present specific information regarding the development of a community energy plan (CEP) for Arlington County, Virginia, just across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C.—in many ways a suburb within the greater Washington, D.C. metro area.
The Arlington County process for developing a community energy plan kicked off in January 2010 with a workshop for a senior-level and very engaged community task force, whose ongoing role would be to guide the CEP process. The energy and greenhouse gas emissions baseline was already complete. In March 2010, a Community Energy Plan Technical Working Group (TWG) was formed. This group includes experts from both North America and Europe, allowing the TWG to look at the world from two different perspectives. The TWG subsequently met with representatives from a wide range of stakeholders, including county government departments, property developers, the Chamber of Commerce, local gas and electric utilities, Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, and federal representatives from the Pentagon. The task force endorsed some tough transformative goals based on global benchmarking. A first town hall meeting was held in April 2010. The TWG's preliminary recommendations will be presented to the task force in September 2010, with a completion target for the CEP of March 2011.1
Arlington County's effort is a response to a strong belief that communities will need to manage energy strategically to remain competitive in the face of rapidly accelerating global demand for energy.
On present trends, by 2030 the world's energy demand could double from its 2000 levels. The newspaper headline for July 20, 2010, is that China is now a larger energy user than the United States.2 However one looks at the issue of energy—whether environmentally, socially, economically, or from a foreign policy angle—it is a major challenge.

The Case of Arlington, Virginia

I am going to talk about buildings as components of a community, as opposed to stand-alone energy

of a community energy plan (CEP) for Arlington County, Virginia, just across the Potomac River from
Washington, D.C.—in many ways a suburb within the greater Washington, D.C. metro area.
The Arlington County process for developing a community energy plan kicked off in January 2010
with a workshop for a senior-level and very engaged community task force, whose ongoing role would
be to guide the CEP process. The energy and greenhouse gas emissions baseline was already complete.
In March 2010, a Community Energy Plan Technical Working Group (TWG) was formed. This group

public awareness of both the need for transformational changes around energy and the positive oppor-
tunities created.
The United States is spending roughly $1.5 trillion annually on energy. In terms of energy used to
create a dollar of gross domestic product (GDP), if the index is 100 for the United States, the European
Union is using 57 units of energy to generate the same dollar of GDP (Table F.1).
At a macro level, this gap represents a competitive disadvantage, or productivity opportunity, of
about $600 billion annually. It represents a major opportunity for the United States to use innovation to
close the gap or even leapfrog ahead of other major industrialized nations.
If we consider the three major sectors of energy use—industry, homes and buildings, and trans-
portation—and index the performance of the United States on a unit basis against the performance of
the European Union (they are comparably sized populations and economies: 310 million people in the
United States, 494 million in the European Union, and a slightly bigger economy in Europe), then we
see clearly different opportunities sector by sector (Table F.2).
Industry has generally done a good job of globalizing energy productivity. Table F.2 indicates that
an aluminum plant in the United States and in Germany are using about the same amount of energy
to make a ton of the same product. Industry seems to have already learned that global best practice is
a requirement to remain competitive and has developed approaches to manage sharing. In transporta-
tion, there is a larger gap when measured per passenger-mile or per ton-mile. This gap is mainly due to
heavier vehicles, less mass transit, and fewer high-performance diesels in the United States as compared
to Europe.
The most interesting opportunity for significant energy productivity gains is the 40 percent of all
North American energy used in buildings of all types and all ages, both residential and nonresidential.

Even when adjusted for climate and service levels, this index is between two and three times higher in
the United States than the average level in the European Union.
It is easy to forget how dysfunctional the energy supply chain is, especially when we look at it at a
community level, not at a building level. Some round numbers: 60 to 70 percent of the potential energy
of a fuel is used up getting the energy services to a building, whether those fuel sources are wind, coal,
uranium, or wood. Then, we put the energy itself through the buildings into the building systems for
heating, cooling, lighting, and appliances, such as the computer and the coffee machine. If we're lucky,
we get 5 percent of the primary fuel calories as heat in the cup of coffee. So, that means we are basically
spending $1.5 trillion to get about $150 billion to $200 billion worth of services.
So, what does all this have to do with the community? Well, the community is the lowest level at
which all these things come together and where it is possible to influence the energy outcomes as an
energy system spanning fuel to final service—something that is hard to do effectively on an individual
building basis. The Arlington County CEP is being built around three goals: competitiveness, security,
and environment. Competitiveness is measured by energy cost, employment, and inbound investment.
Indicators for security include supply reliability, supply quality, and flexibility. Environmental impact is
measured by the reduction of energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. The county is looking at these
three issues as balanced necessities to retain both competitiveness and overall quality of life, while
significantly contributing to mitigating wider environmental issues.
The 2007 baseline energy requirement of Arlington County was approximately 76 megawatt-hours-
equivalent for every resident. Commercial buildings use half of the county's energy, and residential
buildings are using about 25 percent. Half of the energy going into commercial and residential buildings
is from the conversion losses in generating and transporting electricity incurred outside the community.
The energy used to get electricity to the community accounts for the largest single portion of the total use.
Energy-related greenhouse gas emissions in Arlington County total about 14.6 metric tons per
resident. That number includes emissions generated by the ground operations of Ronald Reagan Wash-
ington National Airport, the Pentagon, and Fort Myer, which are located within the county. And, again,
non-residential or commercial buildings account for half of the carbon footprint; residential for about
one-quarter. Transportation accounts for about 25 percent of the carbon footprint, of which 14 percent,
is generated by visitors and only 11 percent by local residents.
At a national level the greenhouse gas emissions for the United States are at about 22 metric tons
per person, and the European Union at about 10.5 metric tons per person. At a local level, 3 Arlington
County is at 14.6 metric tons per person. Nearby Loudoun County, Virginia, generates about 14.2 metric
tons of greenhouse gas emissions per person, and in 2009, set a challenging long-term goal of 6 metric
tons per person. Similarly, the community in Arlington County has declared its support for breakthrough
goals as opposed to a more incremental approach. The global benchmark is arguably that of the city
of Copenhagen, with a carbon footprint of 3 metric tons per person, which has recently set the goal to
become carbon neutral (Table F.3).
Community solutions require integration. Integration includes building, renovating, and operating
both new and existing buildings at least 30 to 50 percent more efficiently than today's average build-
ing is built, renovated, and operated. Typically, the premium to reach these levels is no more than 1 or
2 percent of the design and construction costs. As an aside, my team recently calculated the cost for a
40 percent above-code improvement in energy performance and a 70 percent reduction in greenhouse

gas emissions on a project in Ohio.4 We found it would cost an additional $1.50 per square foot on
a development of 2,500 homes and 2 million square feet of non-residential space, which equates to a
premium of about 1 percent.
There are other energy components that need to be integrated. If we look at Copenhagen, we see
not only highly efficient buildings, but also widespread district energy systems that provide for district
heating and cooling to most properties. District energy systems provide centrally managed supply and
delivery of heating, cooling, and domestic hot water to many homes and buildings. Through a network
of highly insulated pipes, district energy optimizes both the investments and efficiency of various heating
and cooling supplies. A major benefit is the flexibility of fuel choice that it offers, allowing heating and
cooling from both fossil and renewable energy sources to be easily and flexibly combined.
Even in Copenhagen, a significant portion of the electricity comes from coal, yet it is still the global
benchmark for greenhouse gas emissions. This is largely due to the ability of the district energy system
to use much of the heat that is typically wasted in more conventional systems. This underlines the basic
truism that it is important to look at how efficiently we use resources, not just what form those resources
take. As has been the case over many years in Arlington County, benchmark communities like Copenha-
gen have an urban design and transportation strategy designed to encourage walking and biking, efficient
trams and trains, and ultimately city-wide infrastructure to support the wider use of electric vehicles.
Copenhagen has a low unemployment rate, high-value employment, and solid inbound investment. It
was recently voted the second most livable city in the world.5 In other words, from an economic and
competitive standpoint, it has not done Copenhagen any harm being green!
So, what are we looking at? In a sense we are looking at what we knew 25 to 30 years ago. All
community energy plans should be prioritized top to bottom, following what is normally called the
"loading order" (Box F.1).
The first priority is energy efficiency: Have you done everything that you possibly can to avoid
needing the energy in the first place? This includes constructing and operating buildings as efficiently

The Arlington Loading Order
1. Energy Efficiency—If you don't need it, don't use it.
• fficient buildings and vehicles
• rban design for transpor tation efficiency
• ixed use development for commuting efficiency
2. Heat Recovery—If it's already there, use it.
• se existing "waste" heat
• istributed combined power and heat
• lan commercial sites to maximize use of "waste" heat use
3. Renewable Energy—If it makes sense, go carbon free.
• enewable electricity—photovoltaic, wind
• enewable heat—solar thermal, biomass, geothermal
• enewable heat and power—waste-to-energy, biomass
4. Energy Distribution—Invest where it makes sense.
• lexible energy distribution (electric, gas, heating, cooling)
• ccept multiple fuels and energy conversion technologies
• ptimize local/regional energy choices
as possible, encouraging efficient vehicles, urban planning for transport efficiency, and ensuring that
jobs are available locally to reduce unnecessary commuting. The second priority is heat recovery: If
you already have a lot of heat, use it. One of the largest sources of incrementally carbon-free energy on
Earth is the wasted heat side of the U.S. electric system. Local distributed generation, along with various
heat recovery strategies, can put this and other waste heat to valuable use. The third priority is to move
to renewable energy. If it makes sense, go carbon free, but only if you've done the first two things. And
then the fourth priority: Team with existing networks to optimize investments between the systems. Do
not fight the grid with high-priced renewables. Instead, work with the grid to optimize grid quality and
things like avoidance of peaks. It's a classic model that requires an integrated approach among many
community players for a sustained period of time. We tend to forget these priorities under daily pres-
sures and end up with inefficient, sub-optimized urban energy systems.
So now we come to the community energy plan for Arlington County. From the outset the consul-
tants encouraged the county leaders, who were part of the task force, to establish a framing target up
front before embarking on the development of the plan. The CEP TWG needed to know whether the
county wanted to develop a breakthrough plan or an incremental plan. If the plan was to be incremental,
it would include community outreach supporting multiple efficiency and clean and renewable energy
supply projects. Most of these efforts would focus on individual buildings, and generally would not rise
to the level of the sometimes uncomfortable conversations where planning practices, local norms, and
even policy may have to change. If a plan was to be transformative, it would need to look into scale
projects that cover entire neighborhoods, where it is expected that there would be new norms, or even
policies, created. As enough of these scale projects were implemented, they would ultimately define a
OCR for page 105
new business as usual. It would take 20, 30, or even more years to get there, but it is important to know,
before writing the plan, what the goal is.
A comment by one of the employees of Arlington County helped frame the conversation over
transformation or incremental goals. When the then-county board chairman Jay Fisette (whom I should
publicly thank for allowing me to show work-in-progress material) began to understand the kinds of
new challenges that the CEP could represent, he commented, "This is not going to be easy." In response,
the employee referred to said, "In Arlington, we don't do easy!" This became the backdrop catchphrase
that helped lead to the task force directing the TWG to develop a plan to achieve "breakthrough targets."
Arlington County already has tremendous community activity around energy-efficient buildings and
lifestyle and other aspects of sustainability such as recycling, water conservation, and urban tree cover.
It is a very motivated community. I will not spend much time today on these admirable efforts. Strate-
gically, these are measures that 10 years from now we probably won't even be thinking of as "green."
In other words, the things that we already know we need to do to make a high-quality, efficiently built
environment will be normal practice. Similarly, on the transportation side, many decades ago the county
started to integrate transit planning into its urban design. It is arguably one of the best-integrated systems
in the United States today, and by the way, it shows in the numbers of the actual energy performance
and carbon footprint from the transportation sector.
It is one thing to plan for efficient buildings; it is quite another thing to actually deliver them. This
brings us to energy performance validation, where there are real opportunities. All of us have heard the
longevity statistics for buildings over and over again, but all too often we focus on the efficiency of
new construction and overlook existing buildings. By 2040, nearly 90 percent of all of today's homes in
Arlington County will still be standing. Sixty percent of the nonresidential property will still be stand-
ing. The county will also have gone through quite a bit of economic growth, adding yet more incoming
workers during the day. If existing buildings are not renovated and operated to higher levels of efficiency,
there is no way the breakthrough targets will be achieved.
Energy performance validation of all buildings is important for several reasons. First, transparent
energy usage when buildings are bought or leased creates a market pull for efficiency, ultimately reflected
in sales prices and rental values. Second, understanding ongoing energy performance tends to affect
home and building operation practice, because users are more aware of the impact of their behavior.
Third, energy performance validation is a potential marketing differentiator for new construction and
major renovations. The CEP has the recommendation that most of Arlington County's buildings will
have Energy Performance Labels. These labels represent a low-cost tool for validating actual energy
performance. The Energy Performance Label would be available whenever a building is sold or rented.
It would typically also be publicly displayed in buildings regularly used by the public. Actual energy
performance would be independently certified. Both voluntary and mandatory approaches are possible;
the county is opting for a voluntary program supported by the community at large. The specific labeling
approach is not yet defined, but will probably use something like the emerging ASHRAE Energy Quo-
tient approach,6 which in turn is an adaptation of the European Union performance labels. 7 The schools
and county buildings, along with some early adopters from the private sector, will be the first buildings
to be labeled. Some of the property owners have already volunteered to be part of such a program. Again,
this is a case of adopting and adapting a proven practice and using it for a number of things, including,
potentially, as supporting documentation in a commercial transaction.

Ultimately, though, many things have to be aligned to create successful implementation of commu-
nity energy plans. Those that succeed have many common features, including the following:
• Leadership and community engagement,
• Transparency and outreach,
• Necessary planning policy changes in place,
• World-class energy efficiency,
• Integrated utility approach,
• Early implementation of "scale projects,"
• Magnet for business and academic excellence,
• Continuous improvement (raising the bar!), and
• Consistent execution over decades.
It is important to get serious quickly and take advantage of the benefits of scale. If you are going
to do a military base, don't do one building, do the entire base. If you are going to do a home and there
are 500 homes in the neighborhood that look the same, do all 500.
The TWG has identified potential scale project opportunities for early implementation, based on a
number of criteria, including these:
• High probability of being implemented;
• Manageable number of participants;
• Large enough to implement integrated energy;
• Solutions within its boundaries;
• Possibility to apply different energy supply and efficiency than surrounding norms;
• Potentially economically, environmentally, and operationally attractive; and
• Future possibility to link to other community projects.
Typically, scale projects are high-density urban villages, core or downtown renewal, sport and rec-
reation centers, academic campuses, military bases, and so on. The task force is looking for anything
that, from an energy standpoint, looks like a small village, yet with relatively simple ownership or
decision-making structures.
The CEP process has declared four high-priority areas in Arlington: Crystal City, which is adjacent
to the Pentagon territory; Columbia Pike, which is a mixed-use development along one main highway;
Rosslyn, which is a high-density, mixed-use urban environment with many buildings dating back to the
1960s that are rapidly going into refurbishment; and the transit-oriented development around the East
Falls Church Metro station. Each one is different, with its own characteristics, and each one will be
planned differently. But each one will have its own integrated energy master plan as a first step. The
integrated energy master planning for Crystal City is in the initial development stage.
The energy use for Arlington County was modeled in 20 specific areas, each representative of the
different kinds of neighborhoods. The sample areas represented 70 percent of the county's greenhouse
gas emissions from buildings, 67 percent of energy use, and 35 percent of the land area. For each of
the 20 areas, the consultants estimated the needs for heating, cooling, and other uses. From this the task
force began to see the picture of the possibilities for sharing infrastructure, or where it could be pos-
sible to start sharing heating and cooling between buildings, ultimately leading to the development of
neighborhood district energy systems. As building renovation proceeds, and where the energy density
OCR for page 105
is sufficient, one can start inter-linking where it makes sense. Based on the analysis, about half of the
county's energy use could be amenable to district energy.
There are potential benefits from district energy systems for just about everybody: the community,
property users, property owners and developers, the district energy utility, and the incumbent gas and
electric utilities. These are summarized below:
• Community
—Reduced environmental impact
—Increased supply security
—Fuel flexibility
—Possibility that peak load reduction may reduce tariff increases
—Migration of district energy (DE) benefits to lower density areas
—Investment opportunity in district energy utility
• Property user
—Equal or lower overall energy costs
—Less volatile energy costs
—Equal or greater supply quality
• Property owner/developer
—Reduced building investment
—Freeing of investment for enhanced efficiency
—More marketable space
—Reduced operations costs
—Investment opportunity in district energy utility
• District energy utility
—Profitable retail sales of heating and cooling
—Grid sales of clean and renewable electricity
—Fuel flexibility—extension to biofuels, fuel oil, and waste heat recovery
—Greenhouse gas credits
—Saleable expertise for similar projects elsewhere
• Gas utility
—Familiar business model
—Business diversification
—Higher sales volumesheating, cooling, grid sales
—Higher than average margins
—Greater knowledge of customers' requirements
• Electric utility opportunity from district energy utility
—Business diversification
—Low-carbon electricity to meet requirements
—Higher than utility margins
—Greater knowledge of customers' requirements
In the low-density areas of Arlington County where district energy is not feasible, the CEP calls
for differential energy strategies based on energy efficiency, clean and renewable energy, local shared
solutions, and transport efficiency. In other words, one completes the energy picture appropriate to the
neighborhood, supported by activities that deliver results in line with the overall plan goals. The CEP
for the county recognizes that "one size" does not fit all needs.
OCR for page 105
If done well, the CEP will create new business opportunities, reduce business risk, and increase the
attractiveness of the community. The bottom line is that for the $1 billion to $1.5 billion that Arlington
County spends every year on energy at today's prices, these efforts could reduce their total costs by
$300 million to $500 million—revenues that can then be used for other purposes. Energy prices are
unpredictable, but most observers expect them to rise in the coming decades, further increasing the value
of successful implementation to the county.
I want to finish with one additional comment. When discussing these issues at the building level, we
often say that productivity is the hidden benefit. We do all these incredibly detailed calculations on the
energy bill, but in fact the real benefit is the productivity in efficient, well-managed buildings. The value
of this productivity financially is far greater than the energy cost savings, which are not insignificant
in themselves. The energy plan that the City of Guelph, Ontario, Canada, completed in 2007 became
a planning role model for the entire country. We have recently heard that companies are investing in
the City of Guelph as a direct result of its commitment to an integrated long-term approach to energy
planning. This will bring many hundreds of new jobs to this city of 110,000 people. In other words,
that approximately $300,000 which the city spent on the plan has already been handsomely repaid, even
before it starts reaping the other benefits of the long-term implementation of the plan itself.
And one last comment on Copenhagen: The achievements there did not happen by accident, and
it was not a historical peculiarity. In the early 1970s, Copenhagen had buildings of average efficiency
and a relatively small downtown district steam system not unlike that of Indianapolis, San Francisco, or
Manhattan today. Copenhagen made a conscious directional decision in 1973 to redesign the efficiency
and energy system of the city. Today, it is a global benchmark of both efficiency and energy system
integration. That was not an accident. That was a community decision: one that has been systematically
and successfully implemented over decades.
So, I thank you very much, and I apologize for going through a wonderfully complex story quickly.
I also want to publicly thank the people of Arlington County. I have never had so much fun working
with a group of people. They keep us on our toes, but they never come in telling us why things cannot
be done. They come in saying, "We want to understand it, but once we understand it, we see no reason
why we can't get on with it and do it." And I think that is the absolute key to what we should be talking
about today.

Convert .vcf to .csv for email contacts
Sometimes when you export contacts from an address book they will be in .vcf or vCard format. In this guide I'll show you how you can convert these .vcf contacts to a .csv file instead.
This method works if you're trying to export contacts in RoundCube, since it can only export to the vCard format. The .csv or comma separated values format is more widely used, so can be imported into more applications.
Convert .vcf to .csv with Windows Explorer
- Open up Windows Explorer, you can hit (Windows key + E) to do this
Navigate to your user directory followed by /contacts
- Click on Import from the top menu
- Select vCard (VCF file) from the import list, click Import
- Browse to the location of the RoundCube address book your exported, then click Open
The contact file should open, just click OK on each contact in the address book to import it
Once you're done importing all the contacts, click on Close
- Click on one of your imported contacts and then hit Ctrl-A to select them all
- Now click on Export from the top menu
- Select CSV (Comma Separated Values), then click Export
- Click Browse..., name your file, then click Save followed by Next >
- Now select the fields you'd like to export and click Finish
You should now hopefully have all of your email contacts that were in vCard .vcf format converted over to .csv.
We value your feedback!

we will have one dining room for casual and formal dining. We will also have porcelain tile floors. initially, I was thinking we'd have a rug under the dining table but it just occurred to me that it may not make sense for cleaning purposes. anyone out there have a rug under your dining table? and if so, how do you manage? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Patterned. I defy anyone to find a stain in my 60-year-old Persian rug's flowers, animals, swirls, etc., although there must be some. Wool. For washability and so chair feet won't leave impressions. BTW, dining is such a clanky, noisy business, and the typical home these days doesn't have nearly enough soft surface to tone it down into a fairly genteel range. And you have tile to boot; happily tile and rugs set each other off really nicely, a win-win. So I'd personally do a rug and make it a graciously big one (i.e., enough that no one ever wonders if a pushed-out chair is going to fall off the edge). |

In our last home, I had a wool Karastan in the DR. Also had wool Oriental in this house, but it has been replaced with a Soumak. I also have a Soumak in the breakfast room (guest room, foyer and great room too!) They are extremely hard wearing and easy to clean spills (liquid or solid). |

More observations from Specialized's BG Fit Camp, day two. Tired blogger = fewer words.
The big jump today was transitioning from a two-dimensional fit to a 3D one. Often, we think of bike position as taking place in two planes, an X and Y axis as viewed from the side of the rider. You've got your back-and-forth plane (X) and your up-down plane (Y). The 3D approach adds a frontal plane (Z), viewing the rider head-on. I guess then you could think of training as a fourth plane, as it describes your place on the X axis at any given moment (time). And I'm sure that Brian Greene or Stephen Hawking could add up to five more dimensions on top of that, all explained by the fact that carbon fibers are not actually straight fibers at all, but instead are tiny strings vibrating in ninth-dimensional space.
Right-o. Fit Camp has warped the ol' brain.
Anyway, the point is that the Z plane is every bit as important to fit as the X and Y. Here are some examples of what you can see on the Z plane that you can't when looking at the rider from the side:
-Does he rock back and forth in the saddle?
-Do the knees describe proper up-down motion while pedaling, like a piston, or do they oscillate back and forth, describing a kind of elliptical motion path? If so, does the knee move inward, toward the top tube, or out, away from it (valgus or varus)?
-Is the handlebar too narrow or wide?
-Does the rider sit crookedly on the bike?
All of these aspects are essential to truly fitting a bike to a rider. For example, my pedaling style looks just fine from the side, but I pedal slightly knock-kneed, and in response to some weirdo tight iliotibial band thingie, my body twists slightly in the saddle so that one knee is a few millimeters in front of the other. You wouldn't know this looking at me from the side, but from the front it's very apparent. I've never noticed it, of course. And when we shimmed my footbeds in my shoes, it went away.
A few other notes:
-A stationary trainer is about the most uncomfortable ride you'll ever have. First, the bike doesn't move naturally underneath you, since it's bolted stationary. It's also hard to get the right height on the front wheel - wind resistance while riding actually takes a few precious pounds of force off of our upper body, which we support with our hands. That's why riding a trainer always feels better with a climbing block under the front wheel. The corollary to this is that if you can get a position that's comfortable on a trainer, it'll probably be even better on the road.
-You get a better fit if you're riding a little harder. Your legs push the pedals against several forces; one of them is gravity. If you spin along easily, you're not really riding at the same intensity you are on the road; you're not pushing yourself away from the bike like you do in real life. So, the saddle feels a bit more uncomfortable, the hands get numb more quickly and the feet develop those hot spots faster. Ride at about 60 percent effort level. It'll also bring out quirks in your form that may not be there when just spinning.
-If you're going to tinker with your bike fit, start with simple, easily reversible things. Put a shim inside your shoe before moving your cleat around, for example. In my case, because I ride twisted in the seat, one option would be to offset one cleat - moving the cleat on the forward leg a little forward, to push my knee back and even things out. Instead, we decided to chuck a forefoot varus wedge under my footbed to see if it helped. Presto-chango, it did. No need to bust out the hex wrenches and ruin a nicely aligned cleat.
-If you are going to mess with cleat position, go get a silver Sharpie pen and mark the bolt position on the cleat, and the outline of the cleat on the shoe. It makes it easier to switch back if you screw up.
-Triathletes are the craziest people in the world. They deserve their own entire magazine. Magazines, even. Wait, they have that already? Anyway, as Scott Holz, one of our instructors, put it, there are more mis-fitted triathletes on the road than any other group of cyclists. We'll be spending a good portion of tomorrow learning how to help these poor, misguided souls who think it's fun to go for a run after a long ride where they're not allowed to draft.
The thing is, proper fit for tri is important not only for comfort and power, but for speed. On a flat road, up to 95 percent of a rider's power is spent overcoming aerodynamic drag. Of that, 80 percent is the rider. Aero helmets, deep-dish wheels, skinsuits, frame design and all the high-dollar geegaw stuff we drool over in the sales catalog make up just 20 percent of the total aero drag on the average rider. A really good fit costs about $300, but could end up saving you vastly more time than a $2,000 set of wheels or a new TT frame.
In fact, if you buy new multisport gear and DON'T get fit, you could end up making things worse. If you find yourself reaching for the aero extensions, if you have pain in any of the following areas while using those aerobars (shoulders, neck, triceps or hamstrings/glutes) then your new setup doesn't fit.
If you get a good fit on a standard road bike that makes you as aerodynamic as possible without sacrificing comfort and power production, you'll go faster in that position than on an aerodynamic wunderbike on which you have bad aerodynamic technique. Look for a special time trial/multisport section in Bicycling in the coming months, where we'll cover tri gear and fitting.
