The pins and balls in duckpin bowling aren't as forgiving to beginners as the larger, heavier 10-pin bowling, but according to competitor Jerry Middleton it is what keeps him coming back to Shenandoah Bowling Lanes.

BERLIN (Reuters) - The co-pilot suspected of deliberately crashing an airliner, killing 150 people, had told his girlfriend he was planning a spectacular gesture so "everyone will know my name", a German daily said on Saturday.
(Asthmatic Kitty)In keeping with two of his previous albums, 2005's Illinois and 2003's Michigan, Sufjan Stevens's first album proper in five years was nearly named Oregon, the state where the Brooklyn-based indie hero's mother and stepfather – Carrie and Lowell – were based throughout Stevens's childhood. Eugene, a mid-album track named for Oregon's capital, lists long-ago sense impressions – lemon yoghurt, dropping an ashtray on the floor, and a swimming coach who called Sufjan "Subaru".

I am implementing Master/Slave architecture in my application.
Master polls the jobs from the database and then distributes jobs among the slaves. I am using socket connection to maintain the connection among the master and slaves and to send the job to the client.
As soon as the master initiates the process, one thread starts creating the job queue and another thread starts to get job from the queue and feed them to all the connected slaves one by one. Once the slave finishes the job, it will send some acknowledgement to the master that it is free and master again feeds the job to that client. If queue is empty master just sends some acknowledgement to the client after which client again sends some acknowledgement to the master and master again checks the queue and send the job if available. This process keeps on going until the master decides that all the jobs are done.
Acknowledgement is nothing but some constant value. Whenever client receives this constant value client sends the same value back to the master and if master receives this constant values it sends the job if available in the queue else send the same value back to the client. This way master and slaves keep on communicating until the jobs are all done.
I am working with c# windows server using asynchronous sockets.
My problem is while handling data being received on client side, some time client is getting overlapping values. It is happening in the following event of client socket:
public void OnDataReceived(IAsyncResult asyn)
SocketPacket theSockId = null;
theSockId = (SocketPacket)asyn.AsyncState;
int iRx = theSockId.currentSocket.EndReceive(asyn);
char[] chars = new char[iRx + 1];
System.Text.Decoder d = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetDecoder();
int charLen = d.GetChars(theSockId.dataBuffer, 0, iRx, chars, 0);
System.String szData = new System.String(chars);
if (OnDataRecievedFromMaster != null)
OnDataRecievedFromMaster(Convert.ToInt32(szData), theSockId.hostName);
//richTextRxMessage.Text = richTextRxMessage.Text + szData;
catch (ObjectDisposedException)
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Log(0, "1", "\nOnDataReceived: Socket has been closed\n");
catch (SocketException se)
if (se.ErrorCode == 10054) // Error code for Connection reset by peer
//string msg = "Client " + socketData.hostName + " Disconnected" + "\n";
// Remove the reference to the worker socket of the closed client
// so that this object will get garbage collected
on this event, the value of szdata is not the original value what master really sent. Most of the time the value is repeated. I am only sending integer values to client or server, no strings.
Any kind of input on why I am getting this will really be appreciated.

Prices of clay pot, oven, sugarcane, turmeric plant, and jaggery have shot up
The prices of Pongal festival items have registered a rise in both urban and rural markets. But, undeterred by the price hike, people are thronging Gandhi Market and other major marketing places for purchasing clay pot, clay oven, sugarcane, turmeric plant, and jaggery among others.
The sale of sugarcane has improved compared to last year. Retail dealers have taken precautionary measures in purchasing the produce from farmers in the villages commensurate with the demand. R. Ramachandran from Kallukuzhi, who has been in this business for the past six years, says he has bought 150 bundles of cane from Tiruvalarcholai at Rs. 200 each, and he sells them for Rs. 300.
The saving grace for him is that he transported the cane to the city by his own vehicle. Although he has been purchasing the cane from Tirukkattupalli in the previous years, he shifted it to Tiruvalarcholai this year to minimise the transport expenditure. Further, the quality of cane is better at Tiruvalarcholai.
Lakshmi, another trader, says she has brought the cane from Mayiladuthurai, but the demand is not up to her expectations till Monday evening because of high cost. "I had brought quality and fully-grown cane from Mayiladuthurai. Though the price of cane is high, many prefer low-priced cane," she says.
Pongal Manja Kothu is being sold at different rates. Each plant is priced anywhere between Rs. 10 and Rs. 30 depending on the marketing prospects. At Thillai Nagar, the plant is sold for Rs. 15 while at the central bus stand, it is Rs. 10. Thavamani, a dealer at the central bus stand, says although she had bought five bundles of manja kothu at a cost of Rs. 30 each, she could sell only two bundles till late Monday afternoon. She is worried about the few takers this season.
Clay pots too have become dearer. A pot sold for between Rs. 35 and Rs. 40 last year, now costs Rs. 60, while clay aduppu (stove) has shot up from Rs. 70 last year to Rs. 110. Lack of craftsmen and conventional potters has led to the present situation, says R. Periasamy (70), who has been selling Pongal pots and ovens for the past 18 years near Sethuraman Pillai colony.

Very nice hotel, large condo, always friendly and helpful. Ski storage for ski etc. Right on the ground level. Breakfast is very good - fresh, quality and choice watch out. Dinner in the directly adjoining restaurant (very good steakhouse). Sauna is to 17 o'clock, afterwards on request/individually (surcharge). The children's playroom is available in the basement and rather simple. read hotel review

The hotel was in almost every respect the previous positive reviews, and our expectations - only the breakfast was a few days not ideal and as to the other days. The hotel is great, the food in the attached grill even very good. The staff is always friendly and courteous and at any time helpful and attentive. read hotel review

Although the hotel absolutely centrally located, one lives here very quiet. In the pre-season there were only a few guests there, which is a shame. The rooms are great and the staff good care of their guests. I have stayed here last year and i'm sure we will still often again. The local area is ideal for hiking, and attractions are the best with public transportation distance. In the 'old smithy' right next door i very tasty meal. read hotel review

What if it was your job to be a politician?
This month, former Wisconsin Congressmen David Obey and Tom Petri began a road trip around Wisconsin coordinated by one of our Working Lives Project partners, the Wisconsin Institute for Public Policy and Service (WIPPS).
When working together, the Former Congressmen did not always agree. David Obey is a Democrat and Tom Petri is a Republican. However, above all, they are dedicated public servants. They believe that, no matter how messy, politics is a better alternative to war.
And that is why they are hitting the road, talking with young people, encouraging others to consider a career in public service.
They acknowledge that current political partisanship is making the job appear somewhat undesirable for the next generation of leaders. And it worries them.
Keep reading here.

Love and Hip Hop Atlanta star Erica Dixon bared her enviable physique at the Hip Hop Weekly Style Experience in ATL in a $197 Mah Jing Wong Inku Dress:
Her tan, black, and bronze dress features mesh panels and a form-fitting silhouette.
Erica is drop dead gorgeous, but one wrong move in this frock and all your goods will be exposed!
What do you think? Hot! or Hmm…?
*Emily B also sported this frock on Instagram. It's a popular piece!
**Just for fun, see who else attended the Hip Hop Weekly Style Experience:
it looked better on emily, but erica is still #gorge
Something has to be said when Buckey is dressed better than Erica and Cynthia. and I love me some both of them.
and who's paying a hundred and ninety seven bucks for that crap. I mean really!
I'm just not a fan of these mesh dresses. A little mesh on the bust, okay, but all over near the crotch area. No
#SophiscatedRachet…she is so pretty, but this dress is a bit, dare I say, trashy.
(-_-) What kind of event is this that Cynthia felt comfortable showing up in Timbs?!?!? **sighs**
That dress is fugly.
Cynthia!!! Ma'am, why?!
TRASHY. Erica you can do better than that.
Yuck! Why am I even commenting? I'm out.
Looks very cheap and not flattering
Hmm…Looks better on Emily B.
Erica is a gorgeous woman amazing complexion, smooth skin, cheekbones to die for and a body to match. I hope that she is able to find a stylist that will uplift her day-to-day wardrobe. There is absolutely nothing flattering about that dress.
Something about her chest bothers me, in a star trek kind of way.
I find all of Mah Jing Wong's pieces to be quite innovative. A designer ahead of his time.
Erica's body is anything but enviable. I guess me and Anonymous are the only ones noticing her droopy boobs.
Her titties look like socks, Kirk is despicable, Cynthia can kick rocks…literally and Quad looks fab.
The dress looks like a masquerade. Check out fashionable tall fashions at chichisclosets.blogspot.com
Bucky looks basic. Shay is suffering from a bad choice of shoes and Cynthia **le sigh**
Love Erica, but the dress looks best on Emily B. I think its a dress made for a woman with curves. Also Quad looks amaze, I wish there were a full shot of her look.
That dress is a big hmmmm
the dress looks baggy on erica
Erica – OMG, that is the trashiest dress I have ever seen – of course Emily was seen in it. Why do yall keep taking pictures of Kirk? Shay looking stupid as usual. Cynthia – WTF! you can do better.
the dress is TACKY
Cynthia Bailey looks all kinds of crazy !
ummmmm what kind of made up in a hotel function is this?!
Can somebody plz tell Cynthia that she's to old to be dressing like that..and why is Buckey even around and
Clearly, there are some on here that are not here for the fashion. Please save your
Anywho, Mah Jing is not innovative at all. Stella McCartney is a designer. Mah Jing clearly just cuts out patterns, adds some see through mesh, and applique, adds some spanx material here and there, and done done.
Shay make actually look the best here, if she didn't have cut outs on the side of her dress. the color combo is fresh and clean.
Quad's hair looks great. Also her crisp white shirt, beaded skirt, and a simple clutch is quite chic.
Cynthia WTH is wrong with you.
Just No. She got a body, but this dress does not compliment her. WHO does she have in her circle??? Stop listening to Drake, some of yall NEED some new friends -out
its sad when a woman is criticized for her NATURAL boobs! Ericka looks flawless from the neck up, that dress is all kinds of messy. Looks bad on Em too. But seriously, where tf was Cynthia going like that? O_o
Erica is too pretty to be wearing that skank outfit. Come on girl…
Shay looks basic but pretty! She wins! Love the hair and makeup.
Damn shay dressed wayy better.. that's strange
When we talk about the sleek and stylish section in that case generally there are two important the situation is within target one is a compact design and style, whether Sport utility vehicle and also 4 door and second may be the diesel-engined lean, whether little or big.

Linux and Open Source in Scientific American 11
from the good-press-coverage 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).
we should all take the last paragraph to heart.
If the current stylistic distinctions between open-source and commercial software persist, an open-software revolution could lead to yet another divide between haves and have-nots: those with the skills and connections to make use of free software, and those who must pay high prices for increasingly dated commercial offerings.
This bothers me. Let's not forget that free (as in "speech" or "beer") software is meaningless if people can't use it.
(somewhere in tenn.)
Doesn't that figure?

He seems to imply that "programmers" should adjust their ideas to be more in line with those of "average consumers". Wouldn't the world be better off if the reverse happened, and the median computer literacy level permitted one to use Emacs productively?

Please select a date:
What was the highlight or most memorable moment of your tour?
Too many to mention but: Cycling in Bagan along sandy tracks from one temple/pagoda to another and avoiding the tourists; visiting a remote monastery school in a poor rural area...Read more
Tour Leader Name
How Was Your Explore Tour Leader
Excellent and I wasn't surprised that he had been voted best cycle tour leader in the previous year. He went out of his way to make this tour an experience to remember.
What Tips Would You Give To Someone Else Booking This Tour
1. Change your money at the airport on arrival. 2. If you travel in December/January, take some fleeces and long sleeved cycle tops: it's cold at night and cool early in the morning, but glorious sunshine and warm in the day. 3. Forget phones: they don't work in Burma and wifi is poor.
Do You Have Anything Else To Add
As well as Bagan and Mandalay etc, this tour takes you through remote rural areas where you will cross streams with oxen, cycle through a herd of cows or goats and where locals rarely see outsiders. The Burmese people are among the the most smiley and friendly you will encounter. The cycling is somehwere between easy and moderate but not too difficult. There were opportunities to continue riding for those who wanted. Be flexible. The itinerary is just a guide and the tour leader will vary it according to local events.

How Was Your Explore Tour Leader
Sai busted his guts for our tour. He had a bigger than should have been (17) group to contend. Luckily everyone was pretty easy going.
What Tips Would You Give To Someone Else Booking This Tour
I would not say it was easy cycling. We are both experienced cyclists and have ridden in many countries under many conditions and this wasnt easy. It was OK for us but for less experienced cyclists it was a tad hard and probably the pace was a bit much as well.
Do You Have Anything Else To Add
Overall good. Hotels were adequate and as good as I expected them to be. Overall I was disappointed that the group was more than it is stated that it would be. This should have been communicated to us prior to leaving home. From comments within the group it appears that communication is a problem with Explore at the moment. There were several people who had done over 10 tours with Explore and they commented that this appears to be a recent problem and they suspected that the company had grown a bit quickly.
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry you were unhappy with the group size; it should not have been 17. We get occasional requests on all tours to go one or two over the stated numbers, and sometimes this is possible. But the Cycling Manager would not have accepted a request to do so on this trip; we can only think that a system error at the time of that final customer booking allowed an extra customer to slip through. We are confident that this is very unlikely to happen again. Thank you also for your comments about the pace; we are reviewing this.

Lumberjacks: Dangerous weather conditions force officials to cancel, postpone events
BEMIDJI -- Another weekend of frigid temperatures and dangerous wind chill readings prompted activities directors in northern Minnesota to alter their athletic schedules.
The changes at Bemidji High School began Thursday night when the boys basketball team and the swimmers stayed home instead of hitting the road.

It all started with a mom and her son.
A fear of the dark and of nightmares had left Debbie Glickman's son a little uncomfortable as he was transitioning from his crib to a big bed. Aware of the calming properties that lavender holds, Debbie went looking for a spray that she could use on his bed before he went to sleep at night. It was during this search that she soon found that there was nothing geared directly towards children and their anxieties on the market. So she created her own, Fairytale Wishes.
Tell us a little about Fairytale Wishes, inc. and what inspired it.
Fairytale Wishes is a line of all natural aromatherapy sprays for children developed to help them with common childhood fear and anxieties. I have two children who are now 10 years old and 7 years old. When my youngest was very small and we were switching him from his crib to a big bed, he had terrible fear of having bad dreams and of the dark. I knew of the calming properties of lavender so I went to a bath and body store and found a lavender spray for about $20/bottle and told him it was a spray to have "Sweet Dreams†and it completely conquered his fear.
I did some research and found there was nothing out there specifically targeted to children for fear and anxiety, both of which are extremely common for kids. My wheels started turning and I got to work.

A Little Bit of History Repeating?
If we look at today's horror output from major Hollywood studios we must ask the question "Is Hollywood making the same mistakes it has before?" A quick glance at movies currently in production shows a terribly high number of remakes and sequels, (monikered as 'franchises' by production companies) much to the dismay of many horror fans. It seems like major studios have bombarded us with unoriginal ideas for many a year now. Yet, we know … Continue reading

Curry College Students See "Eye to Eye" With Pierce Middle School Students
May 2, 2014
(Pictured Above: Curry College students Michaella Nisbet, Maya Rovner and Michelle Currier volunteer their time with Abby Fay as part of the Eye to Eye program at Pierce Middle School in Milton. The program matches college-age students with younger students with LD/ADHD, acting as tutors, role models, and mentors.)
Each Wednesday throughout the academic year, students from Curry College visit Pierce Middle School in Milton, mentoring younger students through art as part of the Eye to Eye project. Eye to Eye is a national program that matches college-age students with younger students with learning disabilities and ADHD, with the older students acting as tutors, role models, and mentors. All of the Curry College mentors have learning disabilities and/or ADHD themselves, and are registered with the Program for Advancement of Learning (PAL) or the College's Office of Disability Services.
The Curry mentors and Pierce students have worked together on decorating plaster handprints, and drawing pictures. The art room is designed to be a welcoming space, allowing the younger students to discuss their abilities and build their self-esteem. The experience empowers young leaders and learners to become advocates for their needs.
To prepare for their roles, the College mentors go through a special training at the beginning of the academic year. This year, two students, junior community health and wellness major Michelle Currier and senior psychology major Annie Rutter, attended a week-long training session at Brown University.
Currier says she enjoys being able to give back to students in the Milton community.
"Growing up, I didn't have a mentor," recalls Currier. "To know that you have support from someone who has the same thing that you have, struggled with the same thing that you have struggled with, and who has succeeded, it kind of gives you hope, like a light at the end of the tunnel. You see that you can do something great, you just do it at a different level, different speed-but everyone can accomplish anything that they want."
Senior psychology major Annie Rutter believes the Curry students are having an effect on the Pierce Middle School students.
"I think that it's really empowering for them to be able to see a college student who has similar differences," Rutter says. "I hope they're thinking, 'I can be in their shoes too.'"
Dr. Karen Spaulding, Principal of Pierce Middle School, agrees that her students are benefiting from the partnership with Curry College.
"Our students have learned about themselves and developed important self-advocacy skills that they will carry with them through life," says Dr. Spaulding "The partnership that Curry forged with us is built on respect for the work we do and rooted in compassion and care for the community in which they are situated. We are grateful to them for this opportunity and for the lessons they have taught us about embracing who we are and seeing those unique characteristics as strengths."
Seventh-grader Abby Fay is among those enjoying the interaction with her Curry mentors.
"I like to talk to the other people about life and school. It makes me feel pretty good, and I have something fun to do after school."

NFC West: Jeff Otis
Rams add Boller, putting Frerotte on the outs
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
Looks like the Rams won't be signing Gus Frerotte anytime soon -- or after the draft. The Rams announced Kyle Boller's signing in a move that could leave Frerotte without a team.
The Rams and Frerotte were close to a deal that would have made Frerotte the second quarterback for ongoing minicamp practices. Frerotte reportedly backed out because he was afraid the Rams might draft a quarterback. Boller's addition addresses the position for St. Louis heading into the draft.
The Rams' depth chart at quarterback now includes Marc Bulger, Boller, Brock Berlin and Jeff Otis. Boller has started 42 NFL games, all with the Ravens. He spent last season on injured reserve with a shoulder injury. If healthy, Boller should serve as a viable backup. He is also relatively young -- 27 -- so he has more upside than the 37-year-old Frerotte.
Comings and goings: Rams since the Super Bowl

A quick look at 53-man rosters from Feb. 1, date of Super Bowl XLIII, provides a reference point for seeing how NFC West teams have changed so far this offseason.
I'll continue with St. Louis.

Roster glance: Seahawks loading up
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
The 49ers added safety Lewis Baker and linebacker Mark Washington.
The Cardinals added running back Jason Wright.
The Rams signed offensive lineman Mark Setterstrom, defensive end Eric Moore, quarterback Jeff Otis, defensive back Marcus Brown, tight end Eric Butler and center Tim Mattran.
Those moves, announced by the teams Monday, are reflected in the chart at right.
The Rams' signings bring their numbers in line with division averages.
The Seahawks' numbers on both lines are heavy. They also have more receivers than any team in the division.
Seattle tends to load up on players before the draft, seeking maximum flexibility and security. The Seahawks have 65 players and seven known draft choices, plus a few compensatory picks. Unsigned draft choices do not count against the 80-man offseason limit, allowing teams to carry additional players through minicamps.

Need advice selecting a Water Softener, justalurker and others?
Hi All!
I'm a homeowner with no plumbing experience (or much plumbing knowlege at all!). We just moved in a new construction that has hard water from the private well. We already have a RO system in the kitchen for drinking and cooking (builder installed because of a high nitrogen level). Plan to have a water softener installed to remove the white scale I see all over the sinks, faucets and granite countertops (they are hard to get rid of!). I am also noticing sediment in the water coming out of the RO system. I find this a little perplexing since I thought RO was supposed to get rid of everything including any sediments. Anyway, we had Culligan out couple weeks ago and the guy did a water test and gave us a quote of $2245 for a HE 10" Water Softener. Thinking that's a little higher than what I would be willing to pay, I researched on buying my own equipment and having a local plumber install it. I've heard some postive things on this forum about OhioPureWater so I started with filling out their evaluation form online and getting a quote. Below is the information I filled in the form:
> People in Home: 5
> Number of Full Bathrooms: 3 (one jacuzzi)
> Hardness Value: 25
> Hardness Unit: gpg
> Iron Value: 0
> Iron Unit: ppm
> pH Value: 7.5
> Flow Rate: 8 (not sure about this)
> Raw Water Color: yes
> Raw Water Odor: no
> Raw Water Clear: no
> Raw Water Is Clear but turns color overnight: no
> Sediment present overnight: yes
> Slimy buildup in tank: yes
> Iron stains on fixtures: no
> Water Line Size: 1"
> Pump Type: Submersible
And their sales emailed me back with these recommendations:
Based on the information in your evaluation, here are the items I would recommend for your application......
1.) Our 1.5 cu/ft ChemSorb sediment removal filter, with the Automatic Backwashing, Fleck 2510 - 12 Day Timer valve....that will help remove color in your water caused by sediment.
The unit would be set to automatically backwash every 6 days with 5 people in the home, and should be installed in the main water line after the well pressure tank, before the softener unit, and can be located at this link on our website...
1ea Fleck 2510 Auto Backwash ChemSorb Sediment Filter 1.5
10x54 resin tank
1.5 cubic feet of mixture
10 gpm service flow rate
7 gpm backwash flow rate
Selected options:
Fleck Valve Connection: 1 Inch Stainless Bypass Valve
Tank Color Option: Blue
2.) Our 48,000 grain water softener with the Fleck 2510SXT Metered valve, for whole house filtration of hardness from your water, and can be located at this link on our web site..... http://www.ohiopurewater.com/shop/customer/home.php?cat=181
I would recommend this softener be installed after the well pressure tank, and be set to regenerate every 1300 gallons, which would be an average regeneration of about every 4 - 5 days, with 5 people in the home....
1ea Fleck 2510SXT - Metered On Demand Control Valve Water Softener 48000 Grain Capacity
10x54 resin tank
1.5 cubic feet of resin
12 gpm service flow rate
2.5 gpm backwash flow rate
Floor Space Required is 26x15x62
Selected options:
Fleck Valve Connection: 1 Inch Stainless Bypass Valve
Tank Color Option: Blue
Brine Tank Size: 15x17x36 Rect Brine Tank
Softening Resin (1.5 cuft): High Capacity Resin
My question is: Are the products he recommended the right ones for us? Regarding the sediment filter, I told him we already have a small one (with the yellowish stuff inside) installed by the builder and he said theirs self-wash and will never need a replacement cartridge. It'll cost me an additional $600 installed. Is it worth it and will it get rid of the sediment I'm getting even from the RO system?
I've read from Justalurkers posts that a Noryl bypass is preferred but it seems like there is no 1" Noryl bypass option. They only have 1" Noryl yoke. So I guess I'll have to use the stainless steel 1" they recommended. I've also learned that I should ask for a top basket from the seller and ask my plumber to put in a 3 ball valve bypass using 1/4 turn ball valves (even though I have no idea what that is).
Anything I'm missing here?
Based on the info you provided IMO a 1.5 cube softener is too small. A 1.5 cube softener would be operating at the least efficient salt dose and costing you a lot of money.
No RO should be operating of water that has a hardness of 25 gpg. More than likely you've already hosed the RO membrane. Since the builder installed that and the sediment filter don't listen to anything he says regarding water treatment as he has proved he knows nothing about the subject.
"....sediment I'm getting even from the RO system? "
I'm reading this to mean you're saying you see sediment coming out of your RO drinking water spigot. If that's the case, either your membrane's trashed or your post-filter or something downstream of it is disintegrating or both. You do have filters in there, right? Needs inspection and correction. Also recommend getting yourself a TDS meter so you can measure quality of RO output.
Your RO stands alone. Even if sediment comes to it, it will not flow out of it. Something's wrong right there. Don't mix that up with some idea of a sediment filter upstream solving the problem. The problem is within the RO system itself.
Hi Justalurker, I will get a 2.0 cubic feet then. Just curious, is your recommendation for a larger resin based on the hardness level or number of people in the house and usage? How should we set the regeneration frequency for it to be most efficient?
What's the reasonable cost for installing just the softener in an unfinished basement in the Greater Washington DC area? The OhioPureWater guy told me roughly $200-250. But the quotes I've been getting has been much higher (I've called a lot of plumbers). The lowest I can get is around $300-$450, and they won't give me a fixed price.
And to Asolo, too, I first saw the sediment in the RO water when I moved in two months ago. Just observed the water again yesterday and no sediment was found either from RO or the untreated water. Not sure what changed but I guess I won't need an expensive sediment filter as the sales guy recommended. Thanks!
Water softeners are sized based on the water conditions, # of people, # of bathrooms, and other variables.
Based on what you posted you should be looking at around a 3.5 cu ft softener and with it setup to operate at an efficient salt dose will regenerate every 7 days.
You might get by with a 2.5 cu ft softener but it will not operate as efficiently (will use more salt) and have a lower SFR.
As for installation... if the water service is accessible in the basement and there is a drain and an electrical outlet you're basically looking at local plumber rates and materials. Plumbers can install softeners, and some install them backwards, so an install by a water treatment pro is preferred.
Before you make any decisions may I suggest...
Hit the Yellow Pages and call at least three local water treatment pros. Make sure you call at least one of the big dogs like Kinetico or Culligan for comparison and at least a couple independent pros.
Give each an opportunity to offer suggestions and provide you with a quote to meet your water treatment needs. IGNORE ANY THAT DON'T TEST YOUR WATER THEMSELVES as they can't speak intelligently to water treatment without knowing what needs to be treated.
Ask lots of questions. Softening the entire house or just the water heater (IMO a bad idea)? Warranty, parts & labor or just parts, how long and on exactly what? Install, permits required, licensed plumber? Routine maintenance and costs? Do they stock parts? Response time for emergency (water leak) calls? If they don't explain things to your satisfaction that is a good indicator of how you'll be treated after the sale.
Are all your treatment needs being addressed?
Ask your neighbors if they have any water treatment experience. They might tell you who's good or who to avoid.
Come back here and post the specific recommendations and hardware components with the costs and we'll give you our opinions.
About the RO....you should NEVER have seen sediment from the RO at ANY time or under ANY circumstance. It is a completely stand-alone separate system with components specifically designed NOT to pass sediment (or much of anything else). Since you've seen that it has, I would advise your checking it out or having it checked out.
The pipe is 1". I did consult with many local well and pump professionals as well as plumbing companies. It seems to me that purchasing my own equipment and having a plumber install in my unfinished basement would be the most cost effective, with between 1/3 to half cost savings. I just want to make sure that the equipment sold by OhioPureWater is a good price for the quality.
Is it true that for the same amount of water regenerated, the higher the grain capacity of the softener, the more efficient (less salt needed) it is? So in essence, even if I am paying $100 more for each additional 0.5 cubic feet of the equipment, my annual savings on the salt consumption may be even more than $100?
Sorry about these entry-level questions :P
You have 1" plumbing and the recommended control valve is 3/4"? I'd be looking at 1" valves, but that's just me.
The aim is to size the softener to regenerate every 7 days or so with an efficient salt dose while providing adequate SFR (service flow rate) to accommodate the number of people, bathrooms, appliances, and fixtures... like a Jacuzzi. It can be a difficult balance to achieve and that's why so many softener sellers don't bother and the customers ends up with an appealing price and an under sized softener and spends far more money on salt than they should.
If you under size then hardness leaks through at peak flow... if you're paying for soft water you ought to get it.
If you're looking for the cheapest solution bear in mind that buying online you get no service by definition... regardless of the seller and OPWC is a reputable seller. You will have a plumber hook up the softener (right or wrong) and then you get to learn how to program it and I guarantee you that OPWC will not give you efficient settings so where will you get them?.
It will cost you nothing to investigate local independent water treatment professionals and you can learn a lot. You might find that local pros are price competitive and install, program, and service what they sell.
Thanks, Justalurker. I researched online and found many calculators for the right effiency level and you are absolutely right that I need something like 2.5 or even 3 cubic feet. I'll bear that in mind when I order.
Looks like the 1" valves are much more expensive and doesn't include bypass configurations as part of the package, at least on OPWC. This is from their website: Fleck 9000 1" Meter On Demand Control valve (Note: the Fleck 9000 1" valve is directly connected to. If you need to bypass the water softener, you must construct your own plumbing bypass configuration). They also don't come with electronic meters (which I assume would be easier to comprehend for homeowners, but I may be wrong and they can be harder to fix in case broken). But I will again, bear your advice in mind.
Culligan recommended a 10" softener and the cost is $2,250. And another local well and pump company quoted $1,950 for Master MP-CLR-45UF. That's 45k grains so smaller than what I actually need. By the way, their specifications referred to a 1" Service Pipe and 3/4" Drain Pipe. Is this the best configuration for my situation? I have seen only 1" pipes in my near the pressure tank in my basement. The plumbing company that is actually going to install my own softener equipment also quoted me for their equipment (a 60k grain two tank unit from CSI Model MS64) plus labor, at $1,500. I don't think their equipment has the Fleck valves though.
I understand I'll bear the risk of no service. But at $885 for a 80k grain equipment and $400 max for installation labor, that risk is probably worth it. I suspect if I were to get the same capacity with the local companies, the price is going to be prohibitive for our budget.
I can't stress the importance enough of involving a water treatment professional even if just for consultation. Plumbers and well companies are not water treatment professionals and don't know what they don't know about water treatment.
As for service size, where are you seeing 1" pipe? Your service size is the pipe from the well to the storage tank.
Buying softeners online can be really confusing...
FYI, The Fleck 7000 is an 1.25" valve and comes with a bypass and is less money than a 3/4" Fleck 2510SXT... see how easy it is when you know what you're looking for?
Guessing what the local companies will charge is not the same as knowing what the local companies will charge.
So go out there and price a 3 or 3.5 cu ft softener with a Fleck 7000SXT with top basket and bypass, Fleck 2310 safety float, and standard resin. Make sure you're getting the top tier quality components and not second best. When you find what you think you want buy it and have the local plumber install it. If all goes well up to that point then program it correctly and for efficient operation.
The best deal around is a dollar's worth for a dollar. Many people want to pay 75 cents and get a dollar's worth but almost always they end up spending 75 cents and getting 50 cents worth. Water treatment equipment is an area where many spend more than they have to to get what they don't need. Lots of people buy softeners that end up as door stops.

why do they call it a "pony" wall?
figured someone here would know. It could be a half wall or short wall, etc. but why pony?
My interpretation? it's the height of a hitching post where you tie up your horse (or pony) :)
I thought it was similar to a dutch door where the top opens like a window but the bottom can be shiut to keep the livestock and the ponies out :)
My understanding is it's an old english reference. Horses used to be kept away from the main house in the stable, but I think it was around the Victorian era when ponies became cute little pets to be kept closer to the house.
A "pony wall" is a half-height wall, a wall just high enough to keep a pony outside of the formal gardens. Low enough to preserve the view through the gardens, but high enough to keep the "pets" out.
True? False? I have no clue.

With the addition of Kiket Island, which is not physically connected to Deception Pass, but is within visual line of sight, Kiket is the latest "jewel in the crown" of the State's park system. Formerly privately owned, much of the 84 plus acres is a pristine natural reserve for fish habitat and habitat diversity. (read the 3/16/2009 Washington State Parks...
This is my "neighborhood" park and is my favorite local place to hike and walk the beaches. There is a freshwater lake in the park for kayaking and canoeing (bring your own). There are miles of lovely trails along beaches and into the old growth forests. Hanging out on North Beach in the summer is truly wonderful and a unique...
Nice park but the Jets NOISE and Pollution was more than human capability's. I don't advise going visit or camp if the NAVY is flying it is very LOUD
Great camping, spectacular views, hikes, kayaking and fishing. Close to local merchants and other attractions
Nothing special about this park Lake was Closed due to some outbreak, trails to sound, are not to friendly for older ones.
We were here on a brisk but sunny Sept day. Made a stop at the Deception Pass bridge, but not brave enough to walk across. Tremendous views even from the side. Easy little hike around the beaches. Only difficult part I found was signage. Would love to visit again and take a kayak or boat tour.
took great grand son to north beach and he had a ball building sand castles and climbing on the logs. the only charge is the state park fees of $10.00 per car.we got year long pass for $30.00
This campground has all you need! Toilets, views from beach and bridge, salt water swimming or fresh water swimming, hiking, tree climbing, beach combing, fishing, safe places for kids to ride bikes too. There's many a great camp site! During summer months there's a snack bar on the beach.
So many different beaches in one general location. Camping, hiking, sunrises, sunsets, ancient Douglas Fir trees, sand, shells, kids' delight to disvoer so many different things. Romantic. Awesome viewpoints and vistas. Walks that take you deep into an old-growth forest and end up on a beach. A place where there's lots of people but you don't feel crowded. Scenery that...
Beautiful beyond belief. The bridge is dangerous, as is crossing the road. I loved the beach portion and took some amazing pictures there.

I have always just wove the newest shoot of a particular hop vine around the stringer that is holding the others. It dawned on me late this summer, should I only let 1, 2, or maybe only 3 shoots take to each stringer and cut all additional shoots to concentrate the energy into the initial one(s)?
2-3 bines is optimum on a stringer. As the plant gets older, you can run more than one stringer.
