GT Heating--Do I need to insist on a schedule J Calc.?
I talked to a GT heating sales guy today, and when I spoke with him, he said he could size a unit for my home with just some climate data (which he has), and the natural gas therm usage for the past year.
Does this sound right? Is this typical? Is this the typical, ballpark way to size a unit for a bid, and if so, should I expect and demand that a schedule J be completed before I sign off on the bid, as a part of the system design?
Dan in Mpls
He can size it for the bid using any method he wants (though you could be unpleasantly surprised later) since you're not paying him for the bid, but you should insist on a Manual J calculation as part of the contract. Just put in the right to back out if final cost is more than X% of the estimate so he doesn't low ball the bid to get the job. Get at least 3 estimates if you can find 3 contractors in your area who know (at least somewhat - some may be better than others) geo. Get lots of references - try nearby town building depts, they may be able to tell you who has geo. Most owners are thrilled to share their experiences and prob. wouldn't mind you contacting them (though I don't know if building dept would give that info to you). Tax records often don't show GT b/c they are so new still - our tax record shows electric heat and no AC - we haven't tried to correct it. That's another thing - here in CT, GT systems are exempt from property taxes.
We got 3 "estimates" or I should say bids on size of our unit based on house plans alone (new construction) but we did provide details on insulation, windows and fiberglas front door we had. We went with company my builder had worked with (conventional system but he vouched for neatness in running ducts to maximize attic space, quality of ductwork) who gave detailed estimate. Other 2 people highly recommended by acquatances didn't get back to us after initial verbal contact b/c I guess they had more than enough work. Another company gave detailed estimate but I believe oversized system - again, didn't do calculations. But I knew from talking to the "experts" who were too busy to actually bid (or do calculations, but had so much experience that I trusted their recommendations, esp. since they agreed on 4 ton unit) what the right size for us would be.
Good luck.
Bingo. Thanks very much for the information. I'm a dedicated DIY guy, so I have little to no experience dealing with contractors.
Geothermal is out of my DIY league though, so I know I need a competent designer/installer. Your info will help me to pick one. Thanks.
It wasn't too hard to make a choice once we found the 2 experts weren't responding to our RFPs, though talking to them they said w/o seeing the house they'd say prob. 4 ton would be enough. Our builder had a 3 ton for same size house and was supplementing with woodstove, complaining about system so we didn't even ask people he used to bid. But rejected the detailed estimate that said 3 ton right away. Then the person who wanted to put a 3 ton for downstairs (app. 1500 sf) and 2 ton upstairs (1200 sf) we thought would be oversized. So we went with the neat, well-laid out ductwork guy who bid on 4 ton unit, talked to some of his GT references (though I prefer to ask around and find out from building dept, GC's who best subs are now that I've been burnt from tile layer who provided me with glowing references but clearly didn't know how to prepare subfloor). I could have gone back to other contractors and asked them to bid 4 ton unit but I felt that if they couldn't get it right the 1st time, who was I to tell them - any problems with the system and they'd say it was what I picked.
The 4-ton guy did say in his bid "The heating and cooling loads will need to be designed on Manuel (sic) J software and will be designed to meet the energy star guidelines. This will require the home to pass an energy star blower door test for maximum energy savings."
I don't know if they ever did the blower test (guess I should call them) since it was new construction and I wasn't around the whole time but I can tell you that we don't even turn on the breaker for the Aux heat until late Nov (2007 & 2008). We have only 18 months experience living with this system but so far we think it's good. Just looking for a way to reduce our energy usage during the long NE winter. Maybe next year we should try keeping the heat at 65 instead of 68, but we get so used to being warm in Oct/Nov we hate to turn it down for Dec-Feb!
vespadaddy - He didn't run blower test, suggested I ask electric co. about blower or thermal imaging. Since his contract says he'd need a blower test to do calcs, I don't know if he just based them on house design data (window ratings, etc.) but he is going to get me the numbers. I will post them if small enough, I can email them to you if larger and you're interested.
klaire - I would be interested too, he suggested waiting til all our casing is up b/c it does make a difference. DH checked last night and all plumbing (vent) penetrations in attic are firecaulked just like the bathroom fans are. Of course all the ductwork is insulated and taped. So I think windows and doors are the only things we can make tighter. Resale value not an issue - we built on family land and my dad would disown me if we sold!
I have had 2 contractors here so far, a company that installs Waterfurnace, and a company that installs Econar.
The waterfurnace guy sized everything based on our natural gas use for the past year, using a program called Geolink Design Studio, IIRC. Given that this is a retrofit, might that be as accurate as a Manual J calc, given the R-value of the walls would have to be estimated? He said he wouldn't do a manual J, as the design program was accurate.
The Econar rep just pulled a number out of the air as we sat together, as far as I could tell.
I have more contractors coming out next week. I'll post up what I hear then.
I would also rely more on the NG data than the Manual J. Actual usage data is always preferred to estimates. Of course, you need to correct for heating degree days and programmeable thermostats/life style issues. Personally, if I was considering a new heat source, I would have been closely monitoring my heat usage during the previous winter. I think this is even more important in the case of a heat pump, where heat load vs temperature is useful design info. This also provides a baseline and a way of making useful comparisons. If you said my heat load is 30 kbtu/hr for a 2 story 2000 sq/ft at an average temp of 30, we would know you could use some more insulation/air sealing.
A proper Manual J calculation takes into consideration such variables as the exterior color of the structure, The color of the roofing shingles, elevation above or below average terrain, the presence of trees or other nearby structures and how they will effect wind Wind and solar loads, the orientation of the structure to determine how much frontage it presents in the direction of the prevailing wind and solar load etc.
If one were to build ten identical homes from the same set of prints and material specifications he/she would still get ten different results when conducting a manual j calculation on each structure.
While there are contractors out there who will dismiss the manual J calculation as an unnecessary expense, in the end over the life of the structure you will pay far more in wasted energy to operate a miss-matched system.

A few standout farmers and ranchers proud of what they do and eager to share their stories will be selected in a competition just announced by a newly formed coalition of farm organizations.
The U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (USFRA) says its Faces of Farming and Ranching contest will "help put a real face on agriculture and shine a light on the heart, personalities and values that are behind today's food."
"USFRA has started a movement to bring more farmers and ranchers together to answer people's questions about how their food is grown and raised," says Bob Stallman, USFRA chairman and American Farm Bureau Federation president. "We need to find the best people to be part of these conversations and represent the real farmers and ranchers of America."
Entries will be accepted through Sept. 8, then 10-15 finalists will be announced in November. Winners will be announced in January 2013 following a public online voting period. They'll each receive a $10,000 stipend and a $5,000 donation to their preferred ag-related or local charity in their names.
Entrants will be required to submit an online application and include a home video of less than three minutes that describes themselves and their farms or ranches. More details are available atwww.fooddialogues.com/.

UV Data
Name: aniketh Status: student Age: 13 Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 2000-2001
I am a class 9 student studying the UV light concentrations in different parts of world. Do you have any data on UV light concentrations,as measured by a photometer, in different countries.
Like so many inquiries, the answer depends upon how sophisticated an answer one is looking for. For example, the website http://www.geog.ouc.bc.ca/physgeog/contents/6i.html discusses the effect of [insolation], the angle of incidence, the length of the day, and the annual changes in solar radiation [of all wavelengths] striking the earth. In addition, the altitude of the site, the number of sunny/cloudy days per year, the wavelenth of U.V. radiation. So the response can be pretty involved.
With that caveat, there are two other websites [with many links] that address this question directly:
The acronym SUMER stands for Solar Ultraviolet Measurement Emitted Radiation. I think that Aniketh can browse these sources and with her teacher decide just how sophisticated an answer is needed.

Bending of the 3'-end of tRNA upon binding of synthetase, the assembly of mammalian tRNA synthetases as a multi-enzyme complex, channeling of tRNA from synthetase to the elongation factor, and binding of tRNA by peptide from the extension of mammalian synthetases have been elucidated in our laboratory using fluorescence spectroscopy, circular dichroism, single-turnover kinetics, and recombinant DNA.

Udo's Choice was started in the 1980′s by Udo Erasmus who holds a PhD. Dr. Erasmus started to give speeches about the value of Omega 3 Fatty Acids. Flax Oil was the primary topic of his lectures. He then wrote a book called "Fats that Heal, Fats that Kill" in an effort to educate the public about essential fats. After the book was written, Dr. Erasmus designed his own blend of oils for the public. He claims that Omega 3 Fatty Acids can increase the brains functioning, help the user maintain a healthy weight, aid in digestion, and provide more energy. The doctor also believes the substance will help heal the skin, hair and nails as well as improve sleep and reduce inflammation. Dr. Erasmus claims the lack of these oils can lead to cancer, heart disease and diabetes.
List Of Ingredients
Udo's Choice product ingredients vary depending on the specific oil used.
Product Features
Udo's Choice offers many different products that are claimed to be the authentic oil formulas. The company also offers other food products. Some of the popular products are:Oil Blends – Udo's Choice 3 6 9 Oil Blend, Udo's Choice DHA Oil Blend, Udo's Choice Flax Oil; Food Blends – Udo's Choice QH Plus, Udo's Choice Beyond Greens, Udo's Choice Digestive Enzymes Blend, Udo's Choice Wholesome Fast Food Blend, Udo's Choice Probiotics Blend, Udo's Choice Phytonutrients Blend; Pet Products – Udo's Choice Pet Essentials for Dogs, Udo's Choice Pet Essentials for Cats
- Udo's Choice products have a variety of formulas.
- Udo's Choice also has products to help pets achieve better health.
- The products in the Udo's Choice line are supposed to be the same formulas as in the original formulas.
- The ingredients appear to be all natural however, they are not all released.
- Udo's Choice Oils do not have scientific data to support their claims.
- The company makes many claims that seem too good to be true.
Udo's Choice was started in the 1980′s by Dr. Udo Erasmus. The Doctor began his company after writing a book to let the public know about his beliefs in the use of fatty acids. The company offers blends that are formulated for humans and pets. They also offer several foods that are supposed to provide the user with a variety of benefits. There are no independent research studies to support Dr. Erasmus's claims that the products will provide the promised results.

Jewish Hospital
Louisville Hand Transplant Program Celebrates 15th Anniversary |
Louisville, Ky. (March 20, 2014)—The Louisville Vascularized Composite Allograft (VCA) program, a partnership of physicians, researchers and healthcare providers from Jewish Hospital, part of KentuckyOne Health; the Christine M. Kleinert Institute for Hand and Microsurgery (CMKI); the Kleinert Kutz Hand Care Center; and the University of Louisville, marked the 15th anniversary of its first and the world's most successful hand transplant today. Matt Scott, a New Jersey native, became the first patient to undergo a hand transplant at Jewish Hospital in 1999. Scott lost his dominant left hand on December 23, 1985 in a blast from an M80 firecracker. He has remarkable function in his transplanted hand, which he uses for everyday living activities. He is the director of the EMT and paramedic school operated by Virtua Health. "The last 15 years have been nothing short of spectacular," said Scott. "In that time, life goes on. I'm doing everything with much more mobility and ability and I'm taking on things I didn't think I'd ever be able to do again. Things are exactly as I'd hoped, my team put me back together and put me back on track." The success of Scott's transplant has impacted the future of both transplantation and reconstructive surgery around the world. Since his procedure, the Louisville VCA program has performed eight more hand transplants on seven patients, including a double hand transplant in 2010. Donnie Rickelman, Louisville program's seventh hand transplant recipient, joined Scott at a celebration marking the milestone. "We are very pleased with Scott and the good attention to his transplant," said Dr. Joseph Kutz, MD, primary investigator and partner with Kleinert Kutz Hand Care Center. "He has proven to the world that transplantation can be successful and allow people to get back to their normal activities." "It's an ongoing effort by everyone involved to make sure these patients, like Matt Scott, do well physically, but also mentally," said Michael Marvin, M.D., transplant surgeon, Jewish Hospital/University of Louisville. "But we wouldn't be here today without the generosity of organ donors and donor families who make the decision to choose organ donation to save and enhance the lives of others." "I'm struck by the awe and wonder that such an amazing procedure can take place. This success story is a wonderful example of how creative ideas, commitment and courage come together to make amazing things happen. The pioneers and partners here in Louisville have had an impact worldwide," said Toni Ganzel, M.D., Dean, University of Louisville School of Medicine. The success of the Louisville VCA program is promising and has lead to additional funding for ongoing transplantation and research. Early funding for research on composite tissue allotransplantation and immunotherapy from the Jewish Hospital & St. Mary's Foundation, also part of KentuckyOne Health, helped to bring about the nation's first hand transplant. Other hand transplants were funded by the Department of Defense. In late 2012, the Jewish Hospital & St. Mary's Foundation allocated $1.5 million for the Louisville VCA program to be used specifically to bring potential hand transplant recipients to Louisville for screening, performance of the hand transplantation surgery and patient therapy and rehabilitation after surgery. In 2013, the Louisville VCA program was awarded $850,000 to fund a clinical trial of a new treatment that will help prevent rejection of hand transplants as part of the Armed Forces Institute of Regenerative Medicine (AFIRM) research program. AFIRM II is a five-year, $75 million federally funded project that will focus on applying regenerative medicine to battlefield injuries. The clinical trial will be led by primary investigator Dr. Kutz and will take place at Jewish Hospital and Kleinert Kutz with research taking place at the CMKI and the Cardiovascular Innovation Institute, a partnership of Jewish Hospital and the University of Louisville. The AFIRM II funding will enable Louisville VCA researchers to explore the potential for a cell-based therapy to improve the immune system's response to a hand transplant, and ultimately lessen or eliminate the need for immune-suppressant drugs. Results of this trial will be far-reaching and benefit not only military patients, but all hand transplant recipients. Photos and b-roll of all eight patient hand transplants including Matt Scott's can be found at http://www.handtransplant.com. ### About Jewish Hospital About the Christine M.

Ashley Young feels Manchester United are now in a great position to win the Premier League after going top of the table with a 2-0 win over West Brom on Sunday.
As rivals Manchester City have stuttered in recent games, United came through a tough sequence with victories against Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham, as well as fighting back from 3-0 down to draw at Chelsea.
And the winger feels the Red Devils are now on course for a successful finish to the season.
"We felt if we came through those tough away fixtures we would be setting ourselves up for the rest of the season," said Young.
"We have managed to do that and now our home form is key.
"A lot of people might not have thought we would be in front of City but we have that belief."

Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
The Cuisinart Compact Juice Extractor offers only average juicing abilities and was among the worst performers when it came to juicing leafy kale. The feed chute was on the small side too, meaning you may need to cut some produce before juicing. This model is relatively simple to assemble and easy to clean by hand, but you can do much better for the money.

MWV Introduces InterceptTM - Security Packaging Solution Boosts Sales And Deters Theft
MeadWestvaco Corporation (NYSE: MWV), a global leader in packaging and packaging solutions announces the launch of Intercept, a groundbreaking security solution that promotes open merchandising while protecting products against theft throughout the supply chain. The Intercept lock utilizes ProTeqt Technologies' proprietary security technology. MWV is introducing Intercept during the 2013 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas from Jan. 8 – 11, 2013.
Shoplifting, employee theft and organized retail crime are epidemics that have far-reaching effects on retailers, brand owners and consumers. Retail "shrink" (loss) equates to $120 billion globally, including over $35 billion in the U.S.
"For decades, retailers tried to stop loss by using cameras and exit alarms that both employees and thieves have learned to ignore. Retailers then turned to limiting access to products, putting them in plastic boxes, locking them on peg hooks or in cabinets," states David Miller, global director of MWV's Security Packaging Systems. "These solutions annoy customers, reduce sales and cost retailers millions of dollars to operate. Retailers and brand owners have been challenged to find a solution that balances security with the need for open merchandising. MWV's Intercept is that solution."
Intercept features a wireless-enabled lock placed on the product, such as in the micro USB port on a mobile phone. The Intercept lock disables the product's functionality until the lock is deactivated utilizing ProTeqt Technologies' system during check out. If the product is not legally purchased, thieves end up with a worthless product.
Intercept is the only solution that provides retailers and brand owners with the security they need to combat all forms of theft, including shoplifting, organized retail crime and employee theft. It allows consumers to fully interact with the products in-store, and take their purchase straight to the check-out register. This solution is particularly helpful for retailers and brand owners that offer high-value products that are the target of thieves, such as consumer electronics, office supplies, video games, pharmaceuticals, jewelry and accessories, fragrances and other personal care products. The system's flexibility allows it to protect almost any category of product offered at retail.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

A guide to essential minerals including information on calcium, iron and zinc.
Minerals are nutrients found in foods, which are similar to
and which are just as essential for good health. They are a part of all cells, tissues, muscles and fluids in the body and are needed for a variety of chemical processes that take place within the body.
Most people are aware of the importance of a diet that is rich in vitamins and even know which foods contain certain vitamins and what the function of those vitamins is in the body. However, people are not so knowledgeable about minerals and their purpose towards keeping the body working well and maintaining good health.
Minerals such as calcium, zinc and potassium are needed by the body for a number of processes such as breaking down, digesting and releasing energy from food, strengthening bones, nails and teeth and regulating fluid and cholesterol in the body.
There are 16 essential minerals required by the body, which are divided into macrominerals, or minerals that are needed in fairly large quantities, microminerals, which are needed in smaller quantities and trace elements, which are needed in minute quantities but which are still vital for the body's well-being.
The benefits of some minerals cannot be seen without the presence of certain minerals and vice versa, for example, vitamin D is required in order to absorb calcium and when foods containing vitamin C are consumed, iron is absorbed more efficiently.
It must be noted that the quantity of minerals contained in certain foods depends on the amount of minerals present in the soil where these foods were grown or where the animals grazed.
Essential minerals and vitamins can be lost through transporting foods over long distances, poor storage and through cooking.
The following outlines the function of these essential minerals, from which foods they can be obtained and the effect a deficiency of these minerals could have on the body.
: Calcium is a macromineral that is needed to maintain strong and healthy bones and teeth. It is also involved in normal blood clotting, muscle and nerve function, lowering blood pressure and is thought to prevent colon cancer.
: Dairy products such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, kelp, broccoli, almonds, sardines eaten with the bones and sesame seeds.
Symptoms of deficiency
: Muscle weakness, spasms and cramp, softening of the bones, which could lead to osteoporosis, back pain, brittle bones and fractures.
: Required for the formation of acids in the stomach as well as regulating fluid in all blood vessels and cells.
: Table salt and foods that contain sodium chloride.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A deficiency is very uncommon but may cause excessive amounts of potassium to be lost and low blood pressure.
: A very important macromineral that is contained in our bones. It is needed to convert blood sugar into energy, control muscle and nerve function, maintain a normal heart rhythm and blood clotting. Research has proved that magnesium protects and treats heart disease, lowers high blood pressure, can ease asthma attacks and PMS in women.
: Whole grains, green leafy vegetables,
, nuts and bananas.
Symptoms of deficiency
: The risk of heart disease and diabetes is increased and can also cause heartbeat irregularities, confusion, muscle cramps and kidney stones.
: Phosphorous is another important mineral involved in the formation and maintenance of strong and healthy bones and teeth. It also helps to supply energy to every cell in the body and is needed to absorb a number of vitamins.
: meat, poultry, fish, milk, cheese, nuts, seeds and whole grains.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A deficiency in phosphorous is fairly rare, however, symptoms would include weak and painful bones and teeth, stiff joints, tiredness and a loss of calcium from the body.
: Potassium, along with sodium, works to regulate fluid in the body. Potassium also helps to maintain a regular heartbeat and low blood pressure and enables glucose in the body to be converted to glycogen, a storable form of energy.
: Fresh fruit and vegetables, particularly avocados, bananas, oranges, potatoes. Also dried fruit, nuts, seeds, meat, poultry and milk.
Symptoms of deficiency
: Muscle weakness, nausea, confusion and feelings of being really thirsty.
: Helps to maintain muscles and nerves in good working order and works together with potassium, regulating the fluids in the body.
: Salt, shellfish, anchovies, dairy products especially butter, yeast extracts, processed meats, avocados and offal.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A deficiency is very rare but is possible through sweating, diarrhoea or vomiting and symptoms include sickness and dizziness, muscle cramps and dehydration.
: Chromium is a trace element that is important in the body. It is able to stabilise blood sugar levels, which could prevent diabetes, by using insulin efficiently. It also aids the break down of fats in the body and is said to increase the good cholesterol in the body while lowering the bad cholesterol.
: Shellfish, red meat, liver, egg yolks, cheese, molasses, brewer's yeast, mushrooms and whole wheat bread.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A lack of chromium could bring on the onset of diabetes as well as raise blood cholesterol levels and could lead to heart disease.
: Copper helps to form collagen, which is essential for healthy bones and connective tissue. It is important for the production of red blood cells and is needed to absorb iron more easily. Research suggests that copper may prevent heart disease and high blood pressure and that it protects against damage from free radicals and the development of cancer.
: Offal,
and shellfish, whole grains, nuts, seeds, avocados, potatoes, garlic, bananas, mushrooms, cocoa, tomatoes, prunes and soya products.
Symptoms of deficiency
: Weakness, skin and breathing problems, although a deficiency is not common.
: Fluoride is important for healthy bones and teeth and protects teeth against tooth decay.
: Toothpaste, tap water and tea.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A lack of fluoride will cause tooth decay.
: Iodine plays a major part in the manufacture of certain hormones by the thyroid gland, that are responsible for regulating metabolism, converting fats into energy and stabilising blood cholesterol levels.
: Table salt, seafood, saltwater fish and seaweed.
Symptoms of deficiency
: This is extremely rare but a deficiency would lead to an enlarged thyroid gland, dry skin and tiredness.
: Iron is required for the production of haemoglobin, the component of red blood cells that transports oxygen around the body. It is also needed to produce myoglobin, which carries oxygen to our muscles. Iron can prevent fatigue, protect against illness and disease and promotes a healthy looking skin.
: Liver, lamb, beef, oysters, shellfish, clams,
, beans, peas, yeast, dried fruits, fortified breakfast cereals, molasses, wheat bran and green leafy vegetables.
Symptoms of deficiency
: It is not uncommon for people to have an iron deficiency in their diet. This could be the case particularly for women with heavy periods, vegetarians and athletes. Symptoms of a lack of iron include tiredness and fatigue, poor concentration, prone to infection, shortness of breath, anaemia, brittle hair and heart palpitations.
: Manganese is important for the protection of the body's cells particularly against damage from free radicals. It is required for the process of metabolism and digestion and helps to break down fats and cholesterol. Manganese is also vital for the formation of healthy bones and tissues.
: Nuts, brown rice, cereals, whole grains and pulses.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A lack of manganese can lead to digestive problems, dizziness and loss of hearing.
: Necessary for the production of DNA and is also known as an antioxidant. It helps to break down sulfites in foods, where if a toxic build-up occurs, it could lead to an allergic reaction. It is also known to prevent tooth decay.
: Liver, whole grains, yeast, pulses, leafy green vegetables.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A deficiency could lead to breathing difficulties and other allergic reactions.
: Selenium is an important antioxidant, as it is known to block free radicals in the body. It fights cancer, heart disease and prevents cataracts from forming. It may delay the development of AIDS and reduces the severity of common infections and illnesses.
: Seafood, eggs, offal, dairy products, citrus fruits, brazil nuts, avocados and lentils.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A lack of selenium in the diet could lead to a higher risk of cancer, heart disease and skin problems.
: Sulphur is an important component of several amino acids, which are needed to form
in the body. It is also very good at detoxifying and eliminating any toxins from the body. Sulphur may delay the ageing process and the onset of any age-related diseases.
: Animal and vegetable proteins such as meat, poultry, beans and pulses and shellfish.
Zinc is present in every cell in the body and also in hair, nails and skin. It is needed to maintain a healthy immune system, which can help in keeping colds and flu at bay. Zinc is necessary for a healthy reproduction system, normal growth and can also be taken to treat a number of problems such as fatigue, skin problems and sore throat.
: Oysters, red meat, poultry, eggs, shellfish, cheese, nuts, sunflower seeds, beans and wheat germ.
Symptoms of deficiency
: A lack of zinc in the diet is quite uncommon, however, symptoms include more cold and flu bouts, longer healing of wounds, a lesser sense of taste and smell, skin problems, loss of appetite and night blindness.

Final home games for Tigers
Published on -4/18/2014, 10:14 AM
Printer-friendly version
E-Mail This Story
By CONOR NICHOLL
Coach Steve Johnson had his customary postgame meeting with his Fort Hays State University baseball team down the third base line following Wednesday's 14-12 home victory against NAIA Bethany College at Larks Park. Then, Johnson dismissed the team, but talked briefly with the seniors by the third base bag. FHSU has just five seniors after having seven, 16 and 13 in Johnson's first three seasons.
The group of starting outfielders Jordan Miller and Clayton Garland, starting first baseman Horace Johnson and relief pitchers Nathan Briar and Drew Martineau has struggled through a tough spring. Fort Hays stands at 14-24, easily the program's worst record since a 9-33 mark in 1991, the last season before the Tigers moved to NCAA Division II. The biggest issue has been starting pitching, which is a cumulative 7-19 with an 8.68 earned-run average and averaged just four innings a start. FHSU has three quality starts -- at least six innings, no more than three earned runs -- with two by Austin Unrein and one from Tyler Patty.
"They are all quality guys," Johnson said of the seniors. "They come to work every day. A few of them are probably disappointed in some of their results this year."
On Friday and Saturday, FHSU completes its home portion with the penultimate series of the year against Lindenwood (Mo.) University. The Tigers will play a doubleheader starting at 2 p.m. today and 1 p.m. Saturday.
The Lions stand at 15-24, 12-16 MIAA, a spot above Fort Hays in the standings. FHSU is 12th in the 14-team league at 11-21 MIAA. Top eight reach the conference tournament.
Garland is delivering an outstanding season with a team-high .428 batting average with four homers, 30 RBIs and 35 runs scored. Johnson carries a .273 mark, but has flashed power with seven homers and a team-best 36 RBIs. Miller has played in just 26 games because of injury and bats .320. Against Bethany, Miller was thrown out on a steal.
"It's tough to look at Jordan Miller, knowing that he had to go through the season not being 100 percent," Johnson said. "He got a great jump today and got thrown out by three feet on a steal and that just wouldn't happen if he is healthy and able to run."
Martineau is 0-1 in nine games, while Briar has been the best relief pitcher with a 2-1 record and 6.65 earned-run average in a team-high 14 appearances.

I got Xfinity wireless about 6 weeks ago. It was working fine until a few weeks ago and now my wireless connection to my netbook is unstable and keeps disconnecting. To my knowledge I did not make any changes to it but it won't stay online. I do not feel I should have to pay Xfinity tech support by phone to correct the problem. Does anyone have suggestions for how to fix this problem so I return to having a stable wireless internet connection?
I am using Vista 7, and have no other wireless devices on Xfinity. Thanks.
Have you tried loging into your router and changing the default channel the wifi broadcasts on? If not open your browser and goto 10.0.0.1 in the address bar, the login info will usually be admin for the user name and the password is usually what they wrote on your install paperwork, if not look on the router for the login info. Change the wireless channel from 1 sometimes it's 0 for automatic, to channel 6. there's a lot of interferrence on the lower channels that will cause lots of disconnects, I had to change mine from 1 to 6 because everytime someone used the microwave it would kick me offline. Yes those can do that, so can cel phones, stereos, tv's basically anything that puts out RF can cause wifi drops.
You'll also notice better speeds wireless and a little more range on chann 6. Channels 6 and 11 are usually really good to use since very few devices will be broadcasting on these channels.
Hi thank you for your answer.
I did go to the address you directed but I was not able to find where I change my wireless netbook to channel 6 and will check it with clear eyes another time.
Meanwhile I am online by wireless now - I also appreciate that my cell phone might have something to do with the connection being unstable.
Thank you again.

FWIW, that's not necessarily so. These particular devices operate on different bands than the 2.4 or 5.8 GHz bands that wireless routers operate on.

The channel gets manually changed in the router. The clients will automatically follow suit and change to using whatever channel the router is on.

Populous is a global design practice with offices throughout the world specializing in creating environments that draw people and communities together–particularly at major sporting facilities and related events. The team consists of architects, designers, technical experts and event specialists.
The company designs some of the world's most prominent sporting facilities, including arenas and stadiums for the London 2012 Summer Olympic & Paralympic Games, Yankee Stadium, Citi Field, Wembley Stadium, and Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. Additionally, Populous' event group, headquartered in Denver, Colorado, also designs and plans large-scale events such as the NFL Super Bowl, NCAA Final Four and NHL Winter Classic.
Event Operations on a Global Stage
For Populous' event group, designing and planning major events on the scale of the MLB All-Star Game or Super Bowl involves managing literally millions of details and anywhere from 20-100 vendor teams to create a successful, memorable experience.
One of the biggest challenges Populous' event group faces is keeping all of the vendors and contractors (both those under its control and those working separately for the client or owner) up to date on aspects of the project. Additionally, with events occurring in different cities around the world, Populous' event group deals with significant vendor turnover from project to project. Hundreds of workers, including volunteers, have to quickly come up to speed on how to interact with Populous' event group and other members of the team to provide updates. Project management of this nature, both in size and scope, can be quite a challenge.
So Much To Do, So Little Time
These large-scale events involve months of tireless planning, a tremendous amount of coordination, and ultimately, superior project management skills and pinpoint execution. The Populous event team, its vendors and the other vendors involved in the project must focus their efforts on a wide variety of issues including:
- Organizing planning meetings
- Reviewing budgets and construction timetables
- Managing athletes, spectators, VIP access
- Producing signage and managing hospitality areas
- Coordinating crowd management and security
- Conducting event tear-down and recap/review
Trying to keep the project contributors–the hundreds of vendors, contractors, volunteers and Populous' event team members–updated as tasks change, problems arise, or milestones are completed can be difficult.
"Coordinating all of the different activities that were going on simultaneously was becoming a big headache for our team," said Marc Klein, senior associate at Populous. "We simply had so many activities going on, and were looking for a better way to keep track of everything and keep the entire team up to date. What we needed was a tool that could improve our project management capabilities, but it had to be easy to use, cost-effective, and wouldn't require a lot of user training."
<NOTE: Here are some related templates to kick-start your next event.>
Minute-By-Minute Management
The months leading up to these types of major events are quite challenging, but coordinating activities the day before, during and after the event are especially difficult. "During a typical event, we need to have minute-by-minute updates of what's going on in each area throughout the venue," said Klein. "We've got vehicles arriving and leaving, athletes getting ready to compete, spectators milling about in the stands, concourses and in hospitality suites, plus personnel who need to be kept informed throughout the day."
"In the past we'd used a combination of Microsoft Project, Sharepoint, Excel and Outlook to manage these types of large events. While those technologies have their strengths, we were looking for a technology to provide better real-time access and horsepower. What we needed was a new solution to an age-old problem."
The Solution Emerges
After the 2011 Final Four college basketball tournament in Houston, Klein and his colleagues realized it was time for a change. "Looking at the whole process, we knew one of the larger costs of designing and planning these types of events happens in the very beginning phase– the travel time and expenses involved in the planning meetings," said Klein. "All of the vendors involved fly into the event city to meet periodically to review the status of the project. We began looking for a good document sharing system that could offer real-time updates and reminders for open items, to help make these meetings as productive as they could be, and to take minutes from the meetings and make sure everyone had access to them to review."
"We felt that we needed to find a cloud-based project management tool that was very easy to use, could be updated and viewed in real-time by outside vendors, could send large files electronically without crashing the entire system, and could serve as a repository for important documents."
Populous' event group had already been using Smartsheet for scheduling purposes. When Klein started investigating solutions that could help them improve the overall project management process, he first took a look at Smartsheet for all of their needs. After diving in and learning more about what Smartsheet offered and reviewing feedback from clients and vendors about the tool Klein was on board.
"We implemented a system whereby each vendor could add their agendas and meeting notes from our monthly meetings. We created an 'issue tracker' for any outstanding items to track the problem and make updates as the months moved on. The system automatically highlighted outstanding issues and shared updates with the entire team. This meant that any vendor that was behind schedule would be called out in front of the entire team which put a lot of pressure on them to get things right. Accountability and transparency have definitely been enhanced by using Smartsheet."
A Mobile World
Klein's team has started using Smartsheet's mobile solution, and quickly found it a must-have, especially because many of the workers are dispersed onsite. "We have a lot of mobile users on our system," said Klein. "Personally, I use both my iPhone and iPad each day when I'm onsite at an event. The new user interface is very user friendly and I can now download documents from links directly on my mobile device. In the past we used an FTP site for document sharing and updates, but we couldn't access those from our mobile devices."
The Big Winner
From planning to onsite execution, Smartsheet has become an important tool for the collaboration and workflow solution for Populous' event group.
"Smartsheet has definitely improved our productivity, impressed our clients and vendors, and made project management for major sporting events much easier."
