The Okanagan is a tremendously diverse wine region with numerous microclimates and soil types throughout the area. As a result, several grape varietals are able to do well so long as specific grape types are grown in appropriate vineyard locations. The evolution and maturation of the B.C. wine industry is due in significant part to winemakers and vineyard managers learning and understanding what grapes grow best where.
As you travel from Kelowna south to Osoyoos during the growing season, the temperature becomes gradually warmer. Grapes such as Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir tend to benefit from the cooler northern Okanagan, whereas the desert conditions and heat in the southern part of the region (literally just a stone's throw from the U.S. border) allow Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah to fully ripen. The entire valley benefits from an abundance of sunshine due to long daylight hours during the summer.
The vineyard where the grapes for the Cedar Creek Syrah are grown is one of the hottest vineyard sites in the Okanagan. Despite the heat, the region is still considered to have a cool climate as nightly temperatures drop considerably from the often 30 degrees-plus during the day. The result is a wine that possesses fully ripe and developed fruit expression and flavours, but also maintains a lovely savoury elegance and freshness. An extremely well-made wine and a great example of the quality that the southern Okanagan is capable of with respect to "warm weather" red varietals.
Tasting notes: Bright aromas of black cherries, black currants and a hint of pepper with flavours of plums, ripe blackberries and cherries, licorice, chocolate and spice, touch of mineral, soft, supple juicy tannins and a wonderful freshness on the uplifted finish.
Food pairings: Grilled lamb chops, grilled chicken, pork or beef or anything off the barbecue.

Case studies
5 Steps to effectively use case studies in your sales presentation
Dec 5th
By Steve Woodruff, {grow} Community Member
How many times have you walked away from a sales presentation muttering "I still don't have a clue what they do … or why I should care."
The biggest culprit is usually a sales pitch too dense with words, graphs and images to make any sense. That's why the most powerful explanation can be a story – particularly, a case study.
I was with a client a few months back and we were having a very difficult time defining their key client offering and message. They did so many different things for their clients that narrowing it down to something simple and memorable was a thorny challenge.
As they described the work they'd accomplished over the years, a key theme began to emerge – the fact that competitors may supply this or that, but this company actually provided the outsource capacity to get large projects accomplished. They were all about implementation. So we used a case study about a successful implementation to highlight what they do,
To stand in front of a potential client and say, "We do this list of 15 things" is to invite confusion, even if it's true. But if you say, "Let us tell you the story about how we took on a similar big initiative for one of other clients …" now, I'm all ears.
I think the case study is an under-used sales technique in many situations. Instead of receiving a resume with a blizzard of buzzwords, wouldn't you prefer to hear a story of what a person can do?
Instead of being overwhelmed by product reviews, wouldn't it be more effective to hear a story about what sets a product apart?
Wouldn't it be great to be able to get case studies in search results instead of just product descriptions?
So how do we make the most effective use of our case studies? I believe there are five key things to remember:
- Be sure the story is precisely tailored to the audience you're trying to reach. If your prospect wants to know how your platform is going to help them launch a small startup, don't go blathering on about how IBM is using it to cover all of Asia.
- Talk about the deepest client need, and how your solution can ease their pain. Connecting on a pain point will immerse listeners in your story.
- Be sure to emphasize specifically how your company uniquely addresses those pain points. You want the case study to reinforce your sweet spots.
- Results. Always highlight results.
- If possible, include an actual customer quote or testimonial.
It's always a challenge to present engagingly in a short window of time. So if you've got case studies – use them!
What other tips would you add to my list? How are you using case studies in the marketplace?

Case study: Building a social media career in 12 months
Oct 17th
In my travels, I meet many people who aspire to turn a love of social media and blogging into a career. This is the story of one person who did it. In 12 months!
I had the opportunity to meet Ana Silva O'Reilly during a lecture I gave at Oxford University last year and we have remained fast friends ever since. "I am intrigued by this blogging idea," she said. "I think I'll give it a go."
In just 12 months, she is travelling around the world for her social media career and has created a profitable and successful business by turning her passion into a business. Her blog Around The World with Mrs. O is growing exponentially and now receives 40,000 page views per month. She is contacted daily by leading brands and has leveraged her success into consulting and paid "influencer" engagements.
I recently had a chance to catch up with Ana and she shared the three keys to her success:
1. Don't conform to Internet expectations
"I am not doing anything special just to perform for the Internet," she said. "I have always loved to travel and so I have just turned my passion into my business. But I'm not doing anything differently. I'm not going to go some place or write something just because somebody wants me to. I travel the way I want to travel. I am staying true to myself, not a company's agenda and that makes a difference to my readers."
2. Engage tirelessly
"I have built my audience through tireless engagement," she said. "My greatest reward is when somebody writes me to tell me that they would have never found some great hotel or restaurant without me. I love hearing those stories and helping people in any way I can."
With her success, scaling engagement becomes more difficult. "I respond to every post, comment, and tweet," Ana said. "I think you build loyal readers one person, one connection at a time, But I find more and more engagement is happening now, which takes more time. Certainly becoming more popular is difficult to scale."
3. Do not compromise your integrity
"I will never, ever compromise my integrity," she said. "People will learn the truth about a travel destination from me."
Ana does take money from resorts for additional social media exposure. How does she align that with her need to stay truthful to her audience? "I will only provide extra social media exposure through my photographs," she said. "I figure photos don't lie. You see what you see. When it comes to my writing, I still say whatever I need to say."
The issue of monetization
In addition to getting money for limited social media exposure opportunities, Ana has been approached by brands as a consultant and social media advisor. She pointed to Four Seasons as a company that is transforming its image through social media. "This is a luxury brand and their core audience was literally dying," she said. "They needed to find a new audience and that is coming through the social web."
Ana certainly seems to be living the dream by turning her passion into a career but I think it is worth noting the fundamentals that got her there –
- Capitalizing on her own originality to carve a niche in a crowded market
- Being honest without compromise
- Consistent content creation and audience engagement
Seems to be a common theme among successful bloggers, right?
How do you use social media to promote a boring product?
Oct 7th
Is your business boring?
Here are some products that don't measure very high on the Schaefer Sexy Scale©:
Back-up cloud data services (cool plan via Marcus Sheridan)
And yet each of these links back to a highly successful social media case study. I'd like to point to another unlikely boring product success to walk you through a system to figure out how a social media strategy might work for your boring product.
This product is burritos. On the Schaefer Sexy Scale©, burritos rate a 1.3, somewhere above scissors and below blenders. Make no mistake, a little meat, cheese and beans wrapped in a tortilla is boring.
To give you some idea of how commoditized burritos are, you only need to walk down the main street of New Brunswick, NJ, the home of Rutgers University, where I teach. Within 50 yards, there are no fewer than four burrito-centric shops: Chipotle, Qdoba, Taco Bell and a mom and pop shop.
And while Taco Bell has a mega-hit with the Doritos Taco Loco, Chipotle has taken the marketing world by storm with its bold and original social marketing campaign, based on extraordinary "mini movies" loosely telling a story about their wholesome products.
I recently wrote a post called The Six Critical Questions Guaranteed to Drive Your Social Media Strategy. My view is that if you follow the path of these six questions, your strategy should more or less unveil itself.
Let's test that by walking through these questions to see how even a boring product like burritos might create social media power …
1. What is your "only we …"
Can you finish that sentence? Even boring companies probably have something distinctive to highlight. But finding that is not always easy.
For Chipotle, they focused on the fact that they are using natural and organic ingredients from local farms. Is that a good "only we?" It depends. Certainly it gets you attention, and it could even be a sustainable advantage … if it's true. A recent article stated that Chipotle is not all it claims to be in it ads. If they are a fake, they will be facing a social media backlash that could destroy the brand.
2) Can our culture nurture and sustain a social media transformation?
"Company culture" is the most important determinant of social media success. Chipotle is a relatively new company without a lot of cultural ties to decades of business practices. They have also aligned themselves with cutting-edge outside resources. Clearly this is a brave company.
Can you imagine the reaction if you went to the management of Pizza Hut and said, "Instead of a TV commercial, we want to spend millions on a YouTube video featuring a depressing dystopian world, robotic crows and a song from Willy Wonka." The reaction would probably be "let's just give out more coupons for our pizzas." Their culture couldn't handle it. In this case Chipotle's culture is a competitive advantage!
3) Are we a conversational brand … or could we be? At what cost and risk?
Let's re-visit the Sexy Scale. People love to discuss fashion, TV shows, music, and sports events. They generally do not normally debate burritos.
But could you make this product buzz-worthy? What would it take? Chipotle is trying to elevate the burrito by telling a bigger story of healthy living, animal welfare, and authentic food through a breath-taking visual treatment, beginning last year with the Willie Nelson/Coldplay scored "Back to the Start" (8 million views) and the new "The Scarecrow" (video is at the end). This is a risk, and an expensive one, but it seems to be working. They are creating a conversation where one did not exist. In fact, they are dominating the market for burrito conversation.
4) Where are our customers and competitors?
In addition to establishing a singular identity (their "only-we") and a compelling message, they also found an untapped media channel in the long-form video format. They created yet another point of differentiation by WHERE this content was being viewed because it was a wide open space. YouTube is now mainstream entertainment and a perfect venue for the hip, urban 18-24 year old target market who enjoy their food.
5) What is our source of rich content?
Could Chipotle have generated 4 million views in one week on a Facebook post? A tweet? Even a magazine ad?
Seems impossible. To fuel this opportunity for massive exposure, they needed something big, bold and rich … like a stunning video animation. For this kind of exposure, a company has to develop some form of rich content beyond the normal social media chatter. Their decision to go with a stunning YouTube video was brilliant.
6) What does success look like?
In this case, the measure of success seems pretty straight forward. The restaurant chain needs to sell more burritos. A LOT more burritos based on the cost of these videos. How is turning out for them?

Analyst projection (Barron's) on growth and marketshare:
Today, the ability to create content that moves is a legitimate source of power on the web. Even for burritos.

B2B Social Media Case Study: How I made $47 million from my B2B blog
Sep 18th
By Sander Biehn, {grow} Community Member
It's true.
I helped my company get $47 million in new business through a blog-centered social sales strategy. Here is our story.
Late in 2011, my company, AT&T, put together a new sales team to re-build business relationships with a Fortune 100 company in Atlanta. We decided to take an entirely new approach that heavily favored building relationships through social media. We HAD to try something new. Our relationship with this client had suffered in the past five years, creating strain between our executive offices. All sales had dried up.
With training from Mark Schaefer and support from our internal team, we began implementing a content strategy aimed at strategic "persons of interest" from our former customer.
This created unique new opportunities to discuss and connect away from the heat of the emotion between our companies. Slowly, we saw a thaw and a major shift in the relationship started. This led to productive conversations about the business solutions that were being discussed in the targeted content.
Inside of 18 months $47 million in brand new business was awarded to AT&T, directly attributable to our social media outreach.
Did that get your attention?
Good. Now let's cover how it actually worked — a successful social sales strategy.
The Social Sales Strategy
To make this work, we knew from the onset we would have to place exceptional content related to potential solutions in front of them. But what would that content be? To do this the sales team first looked at available AT&T solutions that were best suited to the customer's vertical market. There were a total of 10 solutions targeted. We needed to teach our customers about these unique opportunities in a helpful way.
We decided that the primary source of this new content would be AT&T's B2B blog, called Networking Exchange.
Of course putting content out there was not enough. We also had to let them know it was out there and build an audience. Making sure the content was viewed by "persons of interest" at the client was the next part of the strategy. To do this, we settled on leveraging two social sites that customers most likely frequented: Twitter and LinkedIn. By placing original content in front of budget owners we reasoned that AT&T would be viewed as a thought-leader and we would not only be invited to bid, but we would be pre-disposed to win these RFP's.
Content — One initial hurdle was finding exceptional content to put our technology in the right light. The content that existed was targeted at technologists, not business people, and often had too much of an AT&T sales slant. Our new effort needed to be focused more on the customer's business and discuss their problems in their vernacular.
To better align with this target group, we wrote entirely new posts customized to the customer and their roles. The content was not only approachable and business-focused, it was also personal to help us build relationships and encourage engagement with the authors. No ghost writing. We did the work.
Moving the Content — As Mark Schaefer preaches, content is only powerful if it moves. We needed to build a relevant network.
Our first move was Twitter, probably the fastest way to build a network. I first had to connect with Twitter users in our customer base. We used many of the tools covered in The Tao of Twitter to help us find relevant Twitter users and we employed many of these tactics.
I looked to connect not only with customers who had job functions in areas where I believed there was budget for our solutions, but we also targeted industry specialists. Routine engagement with this targeted group included re-tweets and replies to tweets that they sent. Additionally, when there was positive press about the customer I made sure to tweet that and mention key contacts congratulating them on their work to get on their radar screen.
I also tweeted relevant articles and blogs from the Network Exchange and elsewhere. Finally, I tried to engage these customers with the customized content from the blogs I wrote by not only tweeting it but also asking specific questions related to the content and mentioning the customers and people of interest from Twitter. I received engagement from the customers, who began to ask questions or agree or challenge points we made in the blogs.
I approached LinkedIn in a similar fashion by using well-established methods to find people in our customer base who performed the functions most likely to hold budget for the solutions we were targeting. I then examined the LinkedIn Groups that these people belonged to and correlated the groups between customers to find the groups most likely to have the largest base of potential customers attached. Sometimes these were industry groups or groups associated with the job functions or the even a group dedicated to employees of the customer.
The employee LinkedIn group for our customer had more than 5,000 members. After joining the groups I began to interact there. I joined discussion groups and posed questions and tried to bring in helpful solutions whenever possible. Also, I posted relevant articles and ideas from the industry and even from our competitors. Of course I was sure to post positive news about our customer and mention group members by name if they were involved with the news items.
Occasionally I dropped in our targeted blog content, which also elicited engagement when we asked questions and solicited opinions and ideas.
The reaction to our authentically helpful content and engagement was palpable. I began getting questions — and then requests to bid for projects — that mirrored the information we were providing on our 10 strategic solutions.
This was an enormous breakthrough. Remember that relations between our companies had been icy and not exactly conducive to business, Our social media presence was changing the relationship with the customer.
We were being regarded as an expert resource and we were building relationships with people from new departments that had been out of contact with us. They told us our approach was "refreshing" because we were building relationships without bombarding them with phone calls, emails and meetings (like the competition).
The ultimate proof of the power of social media marketing was that when these precious bids came to us, we were no longer outsiders. We had the inside track to win these bids because the RFPs appeared to have been written based on the proprietary information they were gleaning directly from the blog posts I had been putting into the information eco-system.
In less than 18 months from the moment we started our social media strategy, we were awarded $47 million in new business, all of it directed to the 10 target solutions we had strategized from the beginning.
I'd love to hear your comments on our case study in the comment section!

Separate temp/flow bathtub controls
My current bathtub/shower has one control for turning on the water, and it starts with cold water, then a mixture of hot/cold, and lastly just hot, but I cannot get a small trickle of hot water - only a gushing stream. I want to be able to control both the temperature and the flow and be able to turn on the hot water separately from the cold water. My current controls are broken (I've tried to fix them with no luck), and now the controls go from gushing cold to gushing scalding hot with nothing between and no option of a slow stream of hot water.
What kind of fixture do I need to get in order to have this kind of control? In 1988 I redid my mother's bathroom and used a Delta faucet that was one handle that you lift up to turn on the water and move to the left or right for hot and cold. This way she could have a slow stream of hot or warm water. I have not seen this type of fixture recently, and mainly I have seen the type that I already have and hate.
I am not far from faucetdepot.com, which is located in Commerce, CA, about a 40 minute drive from my house, but they are closed today. Home Depot has a horrible selection, and Lowes' appears to be similar.
You are in CA, so you won't be able to get a new valve that allows more than 2.5 gal per min. If you wish to change that, you will need to do it thru the shower head, where you can adjust to a softer stream, but not greater than what goes thru that valve. (2.5GPM). The new ones insure that you won't scald yourself. I don't know how they work, but perhaps a plumber can explain. The term is pressure balanced, and I have a thermostatic valve that works that way. I can still get all hot and all cold, if I wish. "Gushing" water is only something we get in our guest bath, which still has the old Moen valve from the 1960's, and a "modified" shower head.
I ended up buying a Hansgrohe faucet control that has separate controls for volume and temperature, and so I can get the control that I want. Now I just have to schedule the plumber to install it, and I have to move everything out of my linen closet for him to be able to access the plumbing from the removable panel that is hidden in there. My brother and I are going to try to install a new toilet ourselves in my bathroom tomorrow, and if we are unsuccessful, I will call the plumber sooner rather than later.
We have a Hansgrohe thermostatic. If I had seen your message earlier I would have responded with that info (sorry!). We've had it for four years and have been happy with it. (The best thing is that, if nobody changes it on you, your temp stays set from one shower to the next and you don't have to mess around with finding the right temp each time.) One quirk is that when you change the temp, first it overshoots the change for a few seconds, then comes to where you want it. But it's not a big deal.
But, I have to say that we're redoing another bathroom and I'm not even bothering to get another thermostatic valve. No one has ever wanted a trickle of hot water, and we never get such a strong flow that we want to reduce it. (And there's no chance my temp will stay set there!)
Anyway, enjoy!
We just put in thermostat valves (separate temp and volume control) in two bathrooms during the remodeling. So far we love it. The one we used for the hall bath for the tub/shower combo is a Grohflex valve and that works with many of their valve trims and faucet styles. You can choose things more traditional or modern depending on the rest of the room. It is a one box installation for the valve but since we have a complete remodel I can't say how easy it is to retrofit.

18 year old Shanaynay had never done anything like this before, in fact she claimed to have never given a blowjob before but that was hard to believe for someone from the hood. She certainly took her time getting into it though, after stripping her off they tried to face fuck her but a face fucking is hard when the girl is stopping your cock going in.
They cured that by making her lick ass and after that she was happy to try harder. They had her impale herself face first onto cock balls deep. Once she had managed that though, with the help of a hand on her head and much puking, it was easier and the face fucking started in earnest.
After much more puke they bent her over and took turns fucking her pussy. They sat her on the couch so they could get deep enough to hear her squeal. After that they sat her down and took turns leaving cum on her face and in her hair then topped it off by throwing flour on top to make it harder to wash out. You can see Shanaynay take her first face fucking at Ghetto Gaggers.

The floating temple gate.
... turned away in a pose. I think one of the things that really stood out to me was that the man of the couple was obviously a complete yoga novice, and was only expending all of this substantial time and energy to please his very flexible female friend. Kudos to him! I hope he was rewarded handsomely for his efforts. I'm leaving Japan mid next week, so I have to make my way back to Tokyo in the next few days in preparation to fly out. Speak to you again soon! ...
Hiroshima (Day 5)
... in the process of being renovated by the city, so there wasn't a heap to see. But in the rain on the wood smelled absolutely divine. I wish I knew the difference between the types of woods as I might have been able to explain it, but you'll just have to use your imaginations instead. Sorry.
It didn't take long to look at the castle. We took a couple of pics and we were back on the road again soon after. The rain had eased up ...
... platform area through a staffed ticket gate, since the automated turnstiles can't process a Rail Pass. When I left Hiroshima, there was a Japanese man at the staffed gate angrily shouting at the rail staff. They were visibly upset, as were the Japanese passersby. It is very very unusual in Japan to see anyone act this angry, and it's considered disruptive and extreme behavior. In New York, this would be rather routine.

... but there were in balls, out balls, dropping balls etc. Very difficult.
Food here was another variety of noodles or pancakes. The pancakes were pretty good. Cooked on a big hot plate in front of you - well in front of you if you were facing it. A batter, piles of cabbage, bean sprouts, bacon, cheese, egg ( they were all double yoke - how do they know this?), noodles ( always noodles) and a few other things, topped off with a sweet sauce. Very filling and all for 700 ...

"This Fitness Tracker Puts Everything Else To Shame" - Fast Company.
"Atlas Wearables Takes On Jawbone And Nike With A Smarter Exercise Tracker" - Techcrunch
Atlas is a wearable device designed to track and identify your activity. The Atlas can automatically identify exercises, count reps, and organize sets with close to zero user action. Our mission is a seamless and effortless user experience.
Essentially, if you do 10 pushups, run a mile in 6 min, take a 30 second break and then do 3 sets of 12 squats, Atlas will automatically record all that for you – with no user action.
See us pitch to the CEOs of Indiegogo, Ouya, and Fitbit:
TechCrunch - "Atlas Wearables Takes On Jawbone And Nike With A Smarter Exercise Tracker"
CNN - "Atlas wristband was probably the coolest piece of hardware on display"
Gigaom - "Can actually tell what a person is doing based on the biometrics"
Venture Beat - "Atlas is probably the coolest startup from the demo day"
Austin A List - "Intelligent wristband for fitness enthusiasts looking for a complete solution, not just a pedometer."
Bisnow – "Atlas knows this person is doing a regular push-up rather than a triangle push-up."
Silicon Hills News – "the biggest splash was Atlas Wristband"
All wearable technology products available today are incomplete. They normally only track a subset of metrics such as steps, sleep, and heart rate. Current solutions try to derive valuable insights based on only a couple of metrics without knowing what specific activity was performed – they are essentially guessing. What if we knew the exact activity, how fast and how well it was performed, and how it affects your heart rate? This data will not only generate specific workout and personal insights, but will enable new methods of meaningful analysis over the span of a work out and entire athletic career.
Atlas develops technology capable of identifying discrete features from real-time streams of accelerometer sensor data. The initial application of our powerful software and algorithms is for the athletic consumer. We can identify different exercise types, count reps, and organize sets to track the effect on your heart rate, and ultimately on your fitness. This technology can also be applied to tracking other repetitive activities such as swimming, tennis, or golf.
Atlas Concept Sketch B
Atlas is riding along two major trends: the rapid adoption of wearable devices and the growing interest in health and fitness.
The wearable device market is estimated to be $4 BB in 2013, with a projected 40% CAGR over the next 3-5 years. This CAGR is based on the assumption of a 15% to 25% attach rate to the smartphone user base, equivalent to a 6% share of all consumer electronic spend in the US. ABI Research estimates the global market for wearables in health and fitness could reach 170 million devices by 2017.
Our main competitors include other wrist wearables, like the Nike Fuelband, Fitbit, Amiigo and Push Strength. Unlike our competitors, Atlas has developed embedded algorithms to provide live feedback on the type, speed, and quality of exercises. We are focused on improving the technology further to maintain our competitive advantage.
The desire to stay fit and healthy is an international phenomenon. The health club industry generated around $75.7 billion from 153,000+ clubs globally, serving 131.7 million members. (IHRSA Global Report) Along with this increasing trend of spending on one's personal health and fitness, gyms and trainers are seeking more ways to add to the member's experience.
Our main competitors are Nike Fuelband, Fitbit, Amiigo and Push Strength. Unlike our competitors, Atlas has developed embedded algorithms to provide live feedback on the type, speed, and quality of exercises. We are focused on improving the technology further to maintain our competitive advantage.
All team members are passionate about sports and have been involved in varsity athletics. Beyond our shared personal interests, the founding team combines talent from Johns Hopkins University, and Philips Healthcare. While at Johns Hopkins, Peter developed a motivational platform for college students and faculty to lose weight and gain muscle. He realized how valuable tracking the right data and the subsequent analysis was, yet he was frustrated by the lack of adequate solutions. Mike had a similar experience but in a different context. At Philips Healthcare, he learned how data could be used to literally save lives when designing circuitry for defibrillators.
A Techstars Company.
Prior to co-founding Atlas with Mike Kasparian, Peter was a graduate student studying biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins University.
While at Hopkins, he co-founded Sound Body Challenge – a motivational platform that leveraged team and competition to enable health and fitness improvement. Previously, he co-founded of Froots & Company (www.froots.co) – an internet based fruit delivery company that makes health and nutrition convenient.
Prior to co-founding Atlas with Peter Li, Mike previously worked at Philip Medical Division as development engineer. Mike was a key contributor to Philip's health and life saving devices. Mike brings first hand experience on how health data effects people's lives.
He also brings useful reference of processes and practices from established and well-run corporations.

Quote comparison Bryant vs Carrier in NJ
I received the following quotes for my 2500 sq foot, 2 floor house. I live in Morris county, NJ and am replacing a Lennox builder's furnace and a/c. Quotes look high, but they are from reputable dealers. What do you think?

New PVC flue to outside.
One (1) Carrier Infinity Control included.
One (1) Aprilaire Electronic air cleaner model #5000 is included.
A chimney liner will be installed as per code.

Carrier evaporator coil CNPVP4824.
48,000 BTU/H or (4 tons) S.E.E.R. 16.5.
All wiring / refrigerant piping / condensate piping is included.
No Cooling Temperature Guarantee on second floor.
Existing equipment will be removed.
Price: $11,600
Bryant 4 Ton Super N Coil � Model Number � CNPVP06124
Bryant 4 Ton Condensing Unit � Model Number � 127BNA048 � 2 Stage � 17 SEER/13.1 EER
Bryant 100,000 BTU Furnace � Model Number � 353BAV060100 � 2 Stage � 92.5% Efficiency
- Evolution Control Module
� Honeywell Media Air Cleaner
� Install customers humidifier
� One (1) � 60 Amp disconnect
� One (1) � 4" Chimney liner
� Change condenser breaker
Total Price � $9,300.00
NOTE: These prices don't include any rebates, tax credits, etc..
Is it normal not to guarantee cooling temps on the 2nd floor? I understand during the summer, heat rises and the 2nd floor is furthest away from the furnace.
Was a proper heat calc done?
I'm in S. Jersey with 23 year old 2500 SF home. Heat loss: around 59,000 BTU; heat gain under 3.5 tons. You probably need more heating and a little less cooling.
Re: 2nd floor: yes, heat does rise, but a well designed duct system (zoning helps)CAN eliminate (if you have) a heat problem.
Is your contractor addressing your duct system?
well, the 2nd quote isn't as bad as the first. Very nice equipment. Whats the chimney liner for? High efficiency condensing furnaces don't vent thru the chimney. They vent thru the the pvc outside a side wall.
The Carrier quote is on the high side for the equipment quoted. You should be able to do better.
I am not sure the Carrier models you provided are a valid match. I tried the find the match on the AHRI directory but could not find it. Ask the contractor to provide the AHRI number.
The Bryant furnace model 353BAV060100 is a 60,000 BTU input. Are you sure the contractor said this is a 100K BTU unit?
It is difficult to achieve even tempatures on both floors on a 2500 square foot house without zoning. Do you currently have temperature variations? Has the contractor made any suggestions to resolve this.
Do you need an electronic air cleaner? A 4 inch media filter is less expensive and will serve you well. I would also get a quote on a 10 year labor warranty from Carrier or Bryant.
New Jersey offers the Cool Advantage rebate. A Manual J calculation must be submitted with the application. Ask the contractors if they will applying for this rebate.
At the very least, I would want a two stg var speed furnace 95%+ efficient.
Nothing less and I suspect an 80 KBTU model would be more than satisfactory.
And for the previous poster Mike, that furnace is a 100 KBTU model with a 5 ton rated blower motor.
Thanks for all the advice so far. BTW, the house is 28 years old and currently, the coldest (winter) and hottest (summer) rooms are the 2 bedrooms on the 2nd floor where my kids sleep. It so happens, these are also the furthest away from the furnace. Will adjusting the dampers help? The other bedrooms, including the master, are fine.
BTW, here is a 3rd quote, which will include a manual J.
Bryant condenser 127BNA048 2 stage 4 ton
furnace 353BAV060100 2 stage 92% eff.
coil CNPVP06124
honey well filtration
4 inch chimney liner
high voltage
gas piping
low voltage high voltage
install homeowners humidifier
$ 9,200
Evolution system
condenser 187BNA048
furnace 355cav060100 95% 3 stage, variable speed
coil CNPVP6124
thermostat evolution control
$ 11,700
He is pretty close to my original post, option 2 above with his first quote. Is the Evolution system worth and extra $2500? I do plan on staying in this house for a while.
I am surprised to see a $2500 differece between the Preferred and Evolution quotes. In my experinece the equivalent Carrier Performance and Infinity models are closer in price, but my information could be out of date.
The Evolution set up should qualify for an additional $500 rebate from Bryant. The rebates usually begin in March. The Evolution may also qualify for additional NJ and utility rebates. I would have expected the final rebate prices between these system would differ by $1000 - $1500.
I also don't understand how you can configure a two stage condenser with a furnace which is not variable speed. Make sure you are being quoted valid matches.
It makes sense to investigate the possiblity of zoning the second floor. I have read postive reviews about the Carrier Infinity zoning controllers. I assume Bryant has the equivalent product. Ideally you want to improve the comfort in the house after spending this amount of money.
I agree pricing in NJ is higher than the national average. What doesn't make sense is the Evolution system is 27% higher than the Preferred. The labor costs should be about the same. The bulk of the difference is the equipment cost.
There are many HVAC dealers in northern NJ. Talk to additional Bryant or Carrier dealers to determine if the pricing is consistent.
being in north jersey and a bryant dealer,The upgrade to an evolution system is $ 1100.00
I agree the mark up from 9200 to 11,700 is heavy.

What I have been up to lately... Fighting spider mites and rain.
Spider Mites:
I noticed the tips on my original coconut palm are turning colors and turning brown. I looked under the fronds and behold pesty spider mites!! I tried misting but that doesnt seem to do much. Any ideas with out damaging my coco?
I am thinking about using some dish soap and water mix. I would have thought they would attack during our dry summer.
As I thought; the wind came from the south heading north, bringing the rain to my outside coco. So I put up a quick plastic barrier over her. It will rain hard for the next few days. All I can do is hope and pray :P
These challenges make growing coconut palms rather interesting. Every challenge makes them stronger and me wiser. Wow, almost 3 years of growing my original coco. I have learned alot from you all, thanks!!

Red Hat Makes a GPL-Compatible Patent Deal 59
from the step-one-agree-that-the-gpl-is-about-copyright dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
If I understand this rightly, this is a veritable gift to the Open Source community. Kudos.
And gosh, some clever truck manufacturer will find a way to claim the design out of a GPLed car to fit into his truck,
Since the GPL was considered to be incompatible with patents, I'd say this was more than simple sharing.
Several companies have shared their patents with the Open Source community -- or at least promised never to sue for infringement (yes, I know there is a difference), but nobody has ever done that with someone else's patent.
This alone makes it a gift; showing that it is possible is another gift, as now we can expect more of the same.
That was FUD, though. The GPL wants some of your patent rights, just enough to protect GPL software from patents. You still have lots of room to license them commercially.
We can certainly call this an achievement. But really, this sort of legal innovation is what any company that wants to be a sincere partner in the Open Source community to the extent Red Hat is would be expected to do. We're not upset with Novell because they "didn't give us a gift". We're upset with them because they didn't do what is expected of anyone in their position. Red Hat just made that especially clear.

By Robert Hall

First - There are several routes on East Ledges, just check WEBSTER or the new North Conway Guide, although these list only climbs on the "upper" cliff.
Second - At the top of the most popular climb (Ringwrath, see photo), on climber's LEFT side of the cliff (right side facing out), there is a new 3/8" SS Bolt, plus an excellent crack to add a back-up piece. At the base is a dbl bolt chain anchor to rap the lower cliff. Both raps require two ropes, even a 70m doesn't make it single.
Third- On the right side (again, left side facing out) of the upper cliff, on a jutting buttress-like block is an old 1/4" bolt. (photo) Directly below this is/are climb(s) not mentioned in either guidebook.
My GENERAL IMPRESSION of East Ledges " A nice place to visit, but you wouldn't want to live there." A bit longer of a hike than to places like Rainbow and Table Mts, and less to do once you get there; but the climbing is slightly steeper and less slab-like.
The TRAIL has had a MAJOR relocation due to wash-out of the old trail, which is still passable but officially closed.

High-Voltage Fences For Zapping Would-Be Copper Thieves 363
from the Cu-on-the-other-side dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
But this isn't a booby trap.
The fences have to be properly signed, and are only allowed in industrial zoned areas.
Frankly, I think it's a bit overkill, but I totally understand. A local yard was robbed of commercial sized spools of copper wire, had to cost a ton. Even worse, thieves have been opening the access panel on street lights and using their cars to pull the wire out.
Rancho Cordova (where this passed) has long been seen as a higher crime area, not surprised they're going to these lengths at all.
That is the law in my state. Businesses not following it was rampant. But then, the state police started doing stings where they do things like bring multiple faucets or huge amounts of piping and the like. All it takes is one bust and you lose your recycling license for the business and the employee who doesn't report the suspicious transaction can be charged as well, which means they can be unhireable in that business and many others with the felony conviction. Lets just say that that cut into the problem quite a bit in the major cities.
Oh yeah, it would be so hard. I guess that's why every pawn shop manages to survive even though the keep sale records.
All you do is take a picture of the person bring into the copper. Or copy an ID.
Cheap and quick to do. If this means the price I get for recycling goes don a dollar a ton for copper,, the so be it.
If you don't want to participate in society, then you aren't getting the benefits of society.
Someone shows up with pounds of copper material, keeping track of where they get it is reasonable.
Or do you think tons of stolen copper has no cost on business and government?
There was an area in Russia where thieves cut down a high-tension wire. They shot a steel cable over the line, shorting it out and causing the breakers to pop. They then cut out a HUGE section before it could reset. They got nearly 2 miles of cable.
The local power company replaced the cables. They finish working at the other end, and give the okay to turn on the power. Two miles downrange, see a huge flash, then they hear *BOOM!* The power goes offline again, and the repair team goes back to where the first cut was made.
They find a grass fire. After putting it out, they find that the cable had been cut again, and was in the process of being coiled up by the thief.
The thief had been standing in the middle of the coil when the power was turned on.
All they found was a pair of boots, with feet inside them. Everything else had been vaporized.
There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX. We don't believe this to be a coincidence. -- Jeremy S. Anderson

Stephanie Quayle Performs at St. Jude Kickoff Concert [Watch]

A packed house, a festive atmosphere, and great music were all apart of our St. Jude Kickoff Concert Wednesday night at the Rockin' TJ Ranch.
The Brick in Bozeman is the place to be this Saturday. Both the MSU Bobcat men's and women's basketball teams will be at home hosting the University of Montana in the Brawl of the Wild.
Everyone keeps asking us: are those guys going to shave their heads again for St. Jude? Yes! Bryan Barnhart and his buddies are all set to go under the razor again during our annual St. Jude Country Cares Radiothon.
Carrie Underwood and husband Mike Fisher delivered their baby boy into the world last week.
XL Nation, we want to get social with you! Have you liked us on Facebook? Are you following us on Twitter? Have you checked out our videos on YouTube? We're not just on the radio, anymore.
A short but potent storm is headed for the Bozeman area. 2 to 4 inches of snow are expected in the valley, while 4 to 8 inches of snow could land up in the local mountains. The good news is it will push out of here by Wednesday.
Respected songwriter Charlie Robison may not have been looking to start a feud with country duo Florida Georgia Line, but his comments about country radio and a statement made by a top label executive were sure to draw a response.
This March, 63 college basketball games will fill up the college basketball championship tournament bracket – it's your job to figure out who wins each one.
Keith Urban is well-known for his prowess as a guitarist, but the singer-songwriter and instrumentalist is also talented at playing other instruments, as he recently demonstrated.
Amy and I can't wait to see all of you out at our FREE concert this coming Wednesday night at the Rockin' TJ Ranch with Stephanie Quayle! The special evening is a kickoff to our St. Jude Country Cares Radiothon that will be Thursday & Friday from 6a-7p on XL Country.
The 'Playhouses on Parade' are now on display at the Gallatin Valley Mall thru March 20th. They will also be on display and given away at this year's SWMBIA (Southwest Montana Building Industry Association) Home Expo, March 21-22 at the Brick.
When Leonard Nimoy passed away on Friday morning (Feb. 27), he left behind a vast legacy as an actor and director. But the entertainer was significantly lesser-known for a brief stint as a country singer.
