"If the EU is to survive, it will need that sort of leadership. And its survival really is in question now."
I really liked the piece until that last, totally unfounded, sentence.
I would appreciate it if TE could do a cost-benefit estimate for countries potentially leaving the EU (and at that point thus severing all the treaties that are in effect between said country and the other member states within the framework of the EU, exiting the Euro, loosing political goodwill etc.). My feeling is that the cost of leaving the union would be so astronomical that while it's fun to shout about it to the masses, no state would seriously consider doing it.
It is immigration from subsaharan Africa and to a much lesser degree the middle east that annoys Europeans. The black faces in London and Paris are what dismay not the blond Poles or Syrians or South Asians. Pretending it is Eastern European is a PC dodge. Europeans don't want Detroits and Newark. The Israelis recently have fixed their problem under the radar--they have arranged a return of their 60,000 subsaharans to a couple countries--Chad and Uganda no doubt for a price. Israel has accepted fewer than 200 (Two Hundred) non jewish refugees in it's entire existence.
The US meanwhile is locked into its demise....accepting over 1 million new immigrants a year. Some 250,000 subsaharans.
Not appointing Juncker, the top candidate of the winning faction of the European parliament, will cause even bigger frustration among voters. The election was advertised as the first election where you could actually vote for a top candidate. Appointing a third person like Lagarde as chief of the commission will just show how useless that election was in the first place. It will kill the next election for sure. Who will want to vote - if all the important decisions are still being made behind the closed doors of the European council?
What a difference between a competent, intelligent, disciplined, courageous, honest, respected Merkel as compared to a shallow, bag of hot air, pretentious, useless, philanderer François Hollande! A combination of Sarkozy's arrogant impunity to Hollande's total irrelevance and indecisiveness has created a huge opening for the extreme right wing FN.
Electing Hollande over Sarkozy was a big mistake for which the French are paying a huge price. Hollande won the election on a surrealist platform: "I am not Sarkozy" nobody cared to verify if he was a leader competent enough to run a bakery, never mind a country, the fifth largest economy in the world.
Seems like a massive over-exaggeration to say that voters have rejected the EU, when 70% of elected MEPs are pro EU and when a majority of voters in France and the UK voted for broadly pro EU parties. UKIP got 27% of the vote in an election when only a third of eligible voters voted. How is that a resounding mandate to reject the EU?
One reason why ordinary people don't know by how much the EU has improved their lives is because national politicians don't mention them. And media that consistently present misinformation, disinformation and sometimes downright lies about the EU don't help.
One example: the UK, like most EU countries receives EU structural funds towards major infrastructure works (perhaps Crossrail?). In every other country this support is recognised and mentioned on signs detailing the works. On my visits to the UK I have never seen such mention.
More mundane matters such as mobile phone costs (eg roaming), passenger rights, etc get little media notice. More important cases such as taking on IT giants for various breaches (sometimes when the USA does not) gain a little more coverage.
There is a lot to improve in the EU but more also needs to be done nationally.
The best solution would be to disenfranchise the poorest 50% of the voters. Too many Europeans (and Americans, for that matter) think that politicians can actually deliver when they say that, if elected, they will be able to take steps that will reverse the decline in living standards faced by the majority of the electorate. Blaming immigrants, regulations, bankers, etc. is just a smokescreen to get them elected, so they can pander to their backers. The fact is that for an increasing portion of those in the lower two thirds of the economic spectrum, the work we do is less valuable than it used to be.
Whatever we do, there's a good chance that there's a machine, Indian, Chinaman, Mexican, Bulgarian or an app that can do it cheaper and well and fast enough that we are not competitive at our former rate of pay. Immigration is not really the problem. If we don't import the labor, the jobs can be exported or automated. Deglobalization is not the answer either. Globalization makes losers out of some members of society, deglobalization makes us all poorer. The cheap Chinese goods I buy at Wal-Mart allow me to maintain a better standard of living than if I had to buy American ones. An increasing number of the tools I buy are once again American, but the automated factories employ a tenth of the workers they used to.
The Germans get this. The German economy went through a near death experience after reunification and wages were slashed and labor regulations were relaxed. As a result, they are beating everybody else economically. The French responded to economic malaise by cutting the working week while mandating that pay and benefits remain the same and then wondered why so much of their manufacturing moved overseas. After that, they had the great idea that taxing the hell out of the fat cats, a great many of whom are responsible for what little job creation there is in France by running companies or at least spending their ill-gotten gains at the local salon.
It is political suicide for any candidate to level with the electorate and say "There is nothing I can do to make things better for most of you, the best we can hope for is to stop making things any worse, and we will be quite lucky if I can manage that." but that is what needs to be said by somebody in power.
On both sides of the Atlantic we hanker for the return of the days when the rich world had such advantages in manufacturing, finance and services that we could easily maintain the lifestyle that we struggle to maintain nowadays, but the two billion people that have been raised from poverty by their governments' adoption of capitalist principals are now competing with us for work and resources and there are another billion or so ready to join them in the next 20 years, so we had better get used to this.
The Economist's response to any problem bedevilling Europe is, of course, more free trade. Accordingly, your solution to the rise of extremists parties in the European elections includes a speedy adoption of TTIP, the free-trade deal with the United States.
The European Commission estimates that TTIP will boost European GDP by 0.5%. Even on the unreaslistic assumption that this is fairly shared, it will only add 4.5€ to the average European weekly wage packet. In return, the Commission might well have to negotiate away a number of things Europeans like, such as protections against GMOs, chlorinated chickens or hormone-fed beef (irrational choices maybe, but democratic ones). And Europe's national Parliaments would, like the European one, be forced to accept the rulings of obscure arbitration panels that escape their control. Meanwhile, things most Europeans don't like - austerity, banks too big to fail, wage competition with cheaper immigrants - would remain in place. This is a recipe for the destruction of the Union, not for its salvation.
Those who would trade freedom for the price of a sandwich deserve neither. Unlike the Economist, most Europeans seem to understand this.
The demise of the US is due to immigrants? Specifically sub-saharan immigrants? That smells a lot like bigotry.
The UK is making a big mistake to retreat from the battle that is EU-politics. I cannot help but feel like the whole debate is extremely childish, governed by the sentiment "if they don't play by our rules, we won't play at all". How can a nation, that prides itself to be one of Europe's oldest democracies, fall victim to such a grave misunderstanding? Sadly, it is not only UKIP or the big tabloids, the Economist lacks basic understanding and insight into European integration as well.
"There are two solutions to Europe's problems: economic prosperity and increased democracy, ..."
So far, the analysis is right.
"... which basically means returning power to the states and institutions that voters trust."
And this is a huge misconception of how far integration has progressed and why the European Union is necessary. There is a host of areas, in which national governments cannot effectively govern anymore. Climate change, energy policy and especially immigration policy are just a couple of areas where the need for a European solution is obvious. This is the REAL loss of sovereignty! One little state can't cope with the big problems this world poses. But if the classical nation state can't govern anymore, but instead decides internationally or at least on the European level, there has to be proper parliamentary control and sufficient transparency of those decisions. "Democracy" therefore cannot be achieved by strengthening the nation states. Exactly the opposite: democracy has to be strengthened on the European level, i.e. the European parliament. Really, who does Cameron think he is, opposing Jean-Claude Juncker who won the vote of the European people! If he opposes is "pro-europeaness", he should have endorsed a candidate more to his liking!! This is politics! Get involved! Make your voice heard! Don't stand on the sidelines and pout!
By ignoring this European reality, by considering themselves above the whole muddy day-to-day business of EU-politics, the UK will lose. I really do hope it's not too late and change is still possible. But an important first step would be at least for correspondents of such respected newspapers as this one to report more in depth and with a better understanding of the European context.
"the countries mentioned are not known for producing anything of quality."
Well I'm not sure UK is a good reference for home grown industrialisation, thanks God there is still FDI to guarantee there is something productive other than services, banking and pubs (and Russian oligarch real estate).
I could have mention several other emerging economies as well in and outside Europe, but let's stick to my examples.
We're not merely talking about scholarly education here, we're talking about corporate education and training, where operational adjustments are being made, to supplement any deficiency - besides all education systems lack practicality, and after a few years, it is the personal career development and continuous education which matters. I've seen many western PhDs becoming irrelevant by their mid-40s because they couldn't ADAPT and EVOLVE.
- OCP in Morocco train 25,000 youngsters per year while Reanualt-Nissan group have recently doubled their Tanger factory production. Neighbour Tunisia supply competitive IT workers and some of their PhDs head the best European R&D teams.
- Slovakia is of course an active recipient of FDI as one of the recently added member and on the way up the ladder. The average GDP and adjusted purchasing power parity in Bratislava is now uperior to the same average in the jobless and immigrant loaded Grand Paris Region (city and suburb that is). That sucks, doesnt'it ?
- Turkish engineers are all over the map from German machinery industry to advanced tech such as global Japanese firms regularly training such people to put them up to speed with stringent quality standards.
- Indian engineers are fully deployed from the chemical industry to automotive (initially Suzuki, then new entrants), pharma signals emerging R&D beyond copycats generics etc, and of course there is IT and other industries/services. India has awaken, it's not anymore an ex-British colonial subject.
- Oh the cliche of cheap Chinese goods, that's the day before yesterday's story. China is of course all over the place in manufacturing through the whole tech spectrum, and most global firms have set up R&D centers there for global reach. It's climbing very fast the value and quality chain, while taking commercial positions both in developped and emerging economies. The state of the art of China Space and Defense industries show major advances and perhaps no more than a couple of decades before reaching full parity with the West.
The sheer number of engineers produced by China and at some point India, combined with western education and technology integration, has alreeady resulted or will result soon in these countries being net exporter of added value and FDI.
Emerging countries elite have American and European education, then put it at good use for the interests of their country. They never stop learning, adapting, evolving. That's only logical and human.
Wake up people, the world has changed. And all these guys are extremely motivated and hard working.
"DETERMINED to lay the foundations of an ever-closer union among the peoples of Europe…" proclaims the Treaty of Rome [1957]. [2014] ... was the year that Europe's voters told its leaders to abandon the noble aspiration ..."
Is this really what has happened? The goals of the Treaty of Rome are perhaps less relevant in a world where the confrontations between the mighty European powers, as they were at the start of the previous century, would today at most be squabbles between imperial has-beens. However, the popular sentiment that has driven the people of most of Europe to join the Union are surely still commonly shared.
An alternative view of what has happened is that the reality of the Union has been far more satisfying to politicians than it has been useful or andantagous for the person in the street. For example, it is certainly satisfying to be able to drive at 120 kms per hour from Belgium into France (and weather permitting accelerate to 130), without having to stop to show passports and to be subjected to the whim of one or another set of prima donna border officials. But in many other ways we are told that we have been disadvantaged. Our politicians, currying popular favour, aided by our media which is owned and operated by the powerful whose interests do not correspond with our own, have irresponsibly made much of the business of "European Red Tape". As if this is somehow more pernicious than the home-grown variety.
The people who have shown the least commitment to Europe are our leaders, in their behaviour and in their communications. Having now played the populist card of "them and us" far too often, they have created a monster in the UKIPS and in the Front Nationale and others, who are now cashing in on the free credits that this has created for them.
The European Union needs to have an objective look at what it can offer to the people who make up its current and future membership. And it must aim to deliver those benefits as a matter of priority. In the meantime, our political leaders need to take stock of what net benefits Europe has delivered to us, and what Europe could and should deliver in the future. They should then communicate this effectively to their populations.
If we have decisions to take, they should be about how far and how fast the process of integration should proceed. Petty nationalism, the interests of other powers opposed to the integration of Europe (including the influential and self-interested Press Barons), and self-seeking politicians, should not be allowed to derail the process.
Growing pain or terminal disease ...
Maybe UK and France should just leave the EU/EMU.
There is the third option which the Economist talk about early last year which is greater unification among the member states. In some ways the Economist predicted this would happen and I'm suprised they did not stay with that train of thought but rather left the "greater unification" talk. In short what would work, which MOST STATES WILL OUT RIGHT ABHOR, is the U.S.E/U.C.E, the United States or Untited Countries of Europe(minus Great Britian). Not that our two cents matters but that is how most Americans view Europe anyway, as a wanna be United States but keep soverign autonomy. The EU will countinually run into problems like this, continually have countries like Russia bullying them until they come to a unification so tightly knit it would pretty much be the U.S of Europe.
Though those definitely against the EU have obviously polled well, it is a mistake to assume that those who did not vote UKIP, FN etc. entirely support the EU. I suspect that there is a substantial proportion of voters who would like the EU's influence scaled back substantially, but who cannot bring themselves to vote for the likes of UKIP and FN.
The "pro-European 70%" might be wise to realise that they cannot in fact "continue in their usual consensual way" but do need to reform before they lose many of their remaining votes. Mrs Merkel's support of Mr Juncker suggests that this point has not been recognised.
In this reader's view, such a course is likely to lead to a much more brutal break up in a few years if no reforms are effected. More or less the opposite of what the EU pretends to stand for.
"The euro crisis showed that the euro zone needs a banking union, which centralises a lot of power."
True, but somewhat irrelevant. The point here is the EU, not the euro zone. If one was France, say (in both the EU and the EZ), one could advocate less power to Brussels, and also advocate a banking union for the EZ.
Second point: It's interesting to look at this reaction in Europe, and compare it to the Tea Party in the US. Both are saying very similar things about the central government being too intrusive, doing too much, and listening too little. As far as I can tell, Washington is far more democratic than Brussels, but the two cases do have their similarities.
Sorry, I've had enough of your europhobic, generalised comments. I'm out of this conversation.
"But the "four freedoms" of movement of goods, services, capital and labour underpin Europe's single market. To junk any one of these would not only call into question the point of the enterprise, but also reinforce the economic stagnation that is a big reason for the current discontent."
If we take the example of France (most Western Europe), where the feeling of belonging to one's native "terroir" is so strong among certain people, that relocating from Pau to Limoges feels more like a painful uprooting than your rank-and-file expat doing Paris-London-NYC-Tokyo-Shanghai over the span of one or two decades, what do you expect ? And that cultural and social feeling of having to belong somewhere unique and get one's butt stuck there for ever isn't even limited to France or Western Europe.
Someone forgot to explain to "the people" that the 4 principles infer that individuals are mere component of a supply chain, so that when the industrial or logistics value chain move from, say, a western european location to somewhere in Slovakia, if people want to keep their jobs, they either move together with the hardware, and accept Slovakian salaries and lifestyle, or they move up the value chain, but that still might entail a "painful" move.
Of course that's a global situation, not just west-east Europe switch issue. A corollary is that when the Slovakian technician comes to W-Europe and does a better job for half the salary and welfare cost, some call it social dumping, some call it honest competition.
This is where the whole bigotry unravels: it's not just the State guaranteeing a certain level of revenues to workers vs facilitating honest competition, it's the ultimate ostriches attitude that in order to move up the value chain, it has been ignored and left in a vacuum or limbo that people need lifelong education and training.
This has never been considered by an otherwise micro-managing welfare State, provided people have the personal will and mental capacity to learn more, improvise, train, adapt, overcome, and are willing to make the necessary sacrifices to "evolve".
And on top of this comes the ultimate bigotry that, because people are from W-Europe, they are entitled to a sacro-saint lifestyle, so that they may enjoy benefits from globalisation as long as their eastern colleagues are enslaved down the value chain, but as soon as these eastern colleagues evolve upward the value-chain, and compete, suddendly globalisation is bad and ugly.
Well, if you ask me, in global industries stricken by that kind of value chain musical chair games, if I have to choose between people with a sense of entitlement, nanny State protection, no learning, no training, no evolution but still job security and an array of paid vacations and sick-leave days in weeks and months, and a an army of Morocan, Slovak, Turkish, Indian, Chinese technicians, engineers, logisiticians, and profit centers managers, who are willing to work their butt off to learn, train, progress up the value chain, and succeed along the healthy principles of personal responsibility and drive, I do not hesitate one second whom to hire or fire.
That's why if the western European masses do not wake up to the reality that there are millions and billions of smart and hard working people out there, willing to rise and take over, that western European civilization which will number for a few % of the world by 2050-2100, might start to ask itself a couple of hard existential questions.
Dinosaurs thrive, meteorites fall, insects survive, mammals take over, a darwinian world, it is what it is.
I can(t see France voting to leave the EU. The vote for the FN was a vote against the present government and its policies. We tried to give the government a kick via the local elections and nothing much has changed (maybe too early). The French accept that change is needed but don't want the pain that goes with it.
To adapt a Jean-Paul Sartre saying: "People who complain of hurt are not hurt enough to want to change".
it really annoys me how "pro-EU" is without second thought used as a synonym to "pro-Europe". Some things are proEurope but anti EU - like stripping EU of basically everything except the 4 freedoms.

"Beautiful spot.....lovely host"
We spent a week in Angela's beautiful bungalow. The four of us had a bedroom each, two with ensuite. The most fabulous views and such an unspoilt location.
Everything is provided - towels, bedding, coffee and tea. Plus, kitchen drawers have everything you can think of from a safety pin to an envelope - just like being at home.
We took two spaniels with us and they felt very much at home, lots of places for them to run around safely.
Fifteen minute walk gets you down to a gorgeous bay with a natural river stream joining the sea.
Waterville is 5 minutes by car and is a charming little seaside community. Full of warm and welcoming people. Plenty of nice pubs and places to eat, plus good shops to stock up on essentials when you are self catering.
The setting is the perfect base for exploring the Ring of Kerry and is only 2 minutes walk from a well preserved fortified settlement. Lots of history on the doorstep.
Valencia Island has a fabulous chocolate factory and a charming bookshop that is packed to the rafters with well priced second hand books.
We would recommend this as a holiday venue to anyone who wants a nice week enjoying Ireland, being in a location that is ideal to go and do water sports, countryside walks, shopping in big towns and quaint villages - just something for everyone.
Plus, Angela is the most charming of hosts and a delight to meet.

The VISION
The evolution of Ben E. Keith Company has occurred through visionary management. No one knew our humble beginnings in 1906 as a produce company would lead to one of the nation's largest broad line food service distributors. In 1906, Ben E. Keith was known as Harkrider-Morrison Company and was a wholesaler of groceries and sundries. Within a few years of its founding, Ben E. Keith's knowledge of routing, operations, and sales pulled him into a leadership role, and, by 1931, the company was renamed after him.
While Keith accomplished many remarkable achievements, none are more valuable to the Beverage Division as his decision to venture into the selling of ice cream syrups to offset the summer loss of sales of vegetables and fruits. In 1928, Keith visited St. Louis and met with Adolphus Busch, whose brewery was making syrups, baker's yeast and other products since it could not brew beer during Prohibition. When Prohibition ended, Ben E. Keith Company became a wholesaler of Anheuser Busch beers. Mr. Keith's assistant was also instrumental in creating the "Fresh From Keith's" slogan. This slogan helped market and advertise the fresh fruits and vegetables sold by the company and the slogan is still used to this day. But Ben E. Keith will always stand out in his employees' eyes for establishing the Company's pension and profit-sharing plan. This was one of the first companies to establish an employee relations program in the 1940's.
Then enters Gaston Hallam, the father of Robert and Howard, our current owners. Gaston began his career with the company in 1924 and later became a major stockholder, president and chairman. He was witness to the evolution of refrigerated, package trucks, the advent of frozen foods, which had been available on an institutional basis long before they came to the consumer market after World War II, and the creation of the first electronic fork lift. When Gaston decided to step down from his Chairman position in 1979, he announced his son Robert as his successor.
It was under the leadership of Robert that many things began to change. Under Robert, the food division went from being a produce distributor to one of the largest full-service institutional distributors in the country. Ben E. Keith Foods reached over $100 million in sales. The Beverage Division achieved a milestone in December of 1982 when it was the second distributor in the country to sell a million barrels of beer in one calendar year. Both Food and Beverage continued to grow over the next several decades but the next large milestone for Food did not come until 2004, when the company reached over $1 billion in sales.
Although the company has received many awards over the past century, the best award achieved has been the milestone of reaching 100 years in business. Successfully partnering with suppliers and employees to service wonderful customers and helping their business to grow and succeed. It is the continued vision of our leaders throughout the years that has made Ben E. Keith Company a success.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Trending that caught Doug's eye... naughty words
If you ever become rich and famous, you might want to take a pass on dating Taylor Swift.
Because when the breakup comes -- and you know it will -- there's not much doubt the vengeful songstress will let her fans know what a jerk you were, either in a hit song or by dissing you while the cameras are rolling.
Last Sunday night, for instance, Swift apparently dropped the F-bomb when boy band One Direction and former love interest Harry Styles took the stage at the annual MTV Video Music Awards.
As Styles and his bandmates presented an award onstage, the cameras showed Swift -- known for writing those infamous breakup tunes about former boyfriends -- sitting in the audience, turning to close friend Selena Gomez and mouthing the words: "Shut the f - up!"
Was the potty-mouthed zinger aimed at Styles? No one really knows and it's even less likely that anyone really cares. While the caught-on-video moment likely will have zero effect on the 23-year-old superstar's career, she can still take solace from the fact she is far from the first famous person to have their salty language inadvertently captured by a TV camera or broadcast on a microphone they didn't realize was switched on.
With a bow in the pop star's general direction, here are five of our favourite embarrassing on-air gaffes that have been preserved for posterity:
5) Ron Jaworski -- As critics noted at the time, it is entirely appropriate that a man nicknamed "Jaws" landed in hot water for his big mouth. In September 2011, the popular ESPN analyst accidentally dropped the S-bomb while critiquing a replay during a broadcast of a Miami Dolphins-New England Patriots game on Monday Night Football. The verbal slip came after Dolphins QB Chad Henne overthrew a receiver in the end zone, prompting Jaws to observe: "That's one Chad would love to have back ... S , you have to get rid of this ball just a split-second quicker." The former NFL quarterback quickly apologized for the gaffe, but considering Miami was blown out 38-24, we think his analysis was (bad word) spot on.
4) Joe Biden -- If you watch Saturday Night Live, you know it's not exactly news when the U.S. vice-president, a one-man gaffe machine, says the wrong thing at the wrong time. In early 2012, after introducing President Barack Obama at a ceremony for the signing of a health-care bill, Biden pulled the president close and a microphone captured this whispered blue-collar endorsement: "This is a big f deal!" Always quick on his feet, Obama responded: "Thank you everybody." Then, after a tiny dramatic pause, drew big laughs from the audience by quipping: "Thank you, Joe."
3) George W. Bush -- You just knew the silver-tongued former U.S. president had to make this list, didn't you? In one of our favourite open-mic moments this side of Ronald Reagan, the younger Bush didn't realize he was being recorded by official Russian TV during a working lunch at the 2006 G8 Summit and could be overheard sharing his unvarnished views on Mideast violence with then-British PM Tony Blair. After politely thanking Blair for the gift of a sweater, George W. offered this simple solution to the crisis: "See, the irony is what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this s , and it's over!" Apparently Blair let him keep the sweater.
2) A.J. Clemente -- The phrase "There but for the grace of God go I" was invented for this unfortunate young man. Just 15 seconds into his very first broadcast as the new weekend news anchor for NBC affiliate KFYR in Bismarck, N.D., A.J. dropped an F-bomb and an S-bomb on air. The hapless newsman's career was over almost before it started in April of this year as the first words he uttered on air were the last most viewers want to hear. It seems the broadcast went live seconds earlier than expected and A.J., now a viral video star, was venting his frustration over being unable to pronounce three names in an upcoming segment. He apologized profusely but was promptly fired. On the upside, he got to appear on the Today Show and Late Night With David Letterman. At last check, he was tending bar in Delaware. We'd swear to it.
1) Ernie Anastos -- We have nothing but sympathy for the Emmy-winning news anchor with New York City Fox affiliate WNYW, who was bantering on air with weatherman Nick Gregory in 2009 when he made an unwitting slip of the tongue that became an instant Internet catchphrase. In an odd attempt to offer his colleague some encouragement, Anastos said ... well, we can't actually tell you what he said. But what he MEANT to say was this: "Keep on plucking that chicken!" And don't try to tell us you don't know what he ACTUALLY said. It's a remark that has since been immortalized on T-shirts and coffee mugs.
The last (bad) word:
Taylor Swift is above this sort of thing, but poor Ernie Anastos has repeatedly apologized for his innocent barnyard blunder. And we have forgiven him. As we always say: No harm, no fowl!

1. Field of the Invention
Solar heating, particularly methods for collecting solar energy for heating an office building during the winter and cooling during the summer. Buildings have been designed to maximize shielding of vision areas from the sun's rays, while utilizing a series of collecting panels, exposed to the sun's rays to transfer solar energy to heating and cooling systems.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The prior art includes U.S. Pat. Nos.:
The Newton U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,342,211 and 2,396,338 disclose systems utilizing a radiation unit to transfer heat for desired heating and cooling purposes. Independent heat and cold storing means are heated and cooled by a single radiation device. Gay suggests storing heat in the earth or ground beneath a building for subsequent usage. Lof provides a solar heat trap containing a plurality of zones or passages within which a fluid is circulated to adsorb heat for subsequent transfer, and means are provided for limiting heat radiation within the confined zones and for storing excess heat released through the zones. Bremser discloses a solar operated refrigerating system illustrating a conventional absorption cycle type of cooling system, which itself is a per se known manner of effecting refrigeration from solar energy. Such a conventional absorption cycle may also be advantageously used within the teachings of the instant invention, along with any other known refrigeration cycle of the prior art. The Hay patents show a system wherein exterior insulation is moved over different liquid areas for the purpose of storing or rejecting solar energy. The Benedek patent discloses a heat storage accumulator system and equipment for operating the same.
Heat loss through the exterior walls is minimized by using maximum insulation in the opaque area and double glazing vision areas. Radiant energy is collected by means of a series of heat collectors prominently displayed on the east, west and southern facades of the building. Chilling loss during the summer months is minimized by orienting the vision glasses on the north side facade, northeasterly on the east facade and northwesterly on the west facade. On the south facade the vision glasses may be shaded by superposed heat collecting panels. A heat responsive fluid is circulated in radiant contact with the heat collector panels and thence to the desired heating and cooling systems. The circulating fluid is blocked sequentially in those areas where the adjacent panels are not exposed to the sun. The heat may be used to operate a low temperature absorption or other conventional type of refrigeration system, as well as a building heater. Forced air may also be preheated by means of the heated circulating fluid which may be stored wihin the building basement.
As a consequence, the system is a net exporter of heat throughout the year.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a proposed building, showing the southern and western facades with shading collecting panels exposed to the sun;
FIG. 2 is a perspective of the north and west facades, showing the vision glass oriented respectively north and northwesterly, the north facade being without heat collecting panels;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary enlarged view of the west facade, showing angular orientation of the heating panels and north-northwesterly orientation of the double glazed vision areas;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged rear elevation, showing the south facade and adjacent west facade with opaque solar energy collecting panels used complementally as shading for the vision areas;
FIG. 5 is a top plan showing the northwesterly and northeasterly orientation of the west and east vision areas;
FIG. 6 is a fragmentary section taken along section line 6--6 of the south facade and showing the opaque roof-top heat collector, as well as lower collectors superposed at a 45� angle as a shield or shade for the vision areas;
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary vertical section, taken along section line 7--7 of FIG. 5 and showing angular orientation of the heat collecting panels on the east facade, as well as the northeasterly orientation of the vision glass;
FIG. 8 is an enlarged transverse section taken along section line 8--8 of FIG. 7 and showing the positioning of the double vision glass, the collector plate and circulating liquid channels, as well as back-up insulation.
FIG. 9 is a schematic view of suggested building air and piping system;
FIG. 10 is a schematic view of suggested building condensor water system;
and FIG. 11 is a schematic view of a suggested building heat recovery and storage system.
In FIG. 1 a multi-story office building generally designated as 20 is illustrated as having inclined southern rooftop opaque collecting area 26, southern facade 25 and western facade 24. In FIG. 2 the building northern facade 28 is illustrated as having conventional double pane vision areas 34 and opaque insulated panels 32.
In FIG. 4 the southern facade is further illustrated as having double pane horizontal vision areas 46 shaded by angularly superposed disposed opaque collector panels 44.
FIG. 5 the building layout is generally illustrated. West facade 24 has its vision areas 38, north-northwesterly disposed with adjacent opaque collector panels 36 exposed to the prevailing sun.
Similarly in the eastern facade 30 the vision areas 40 are north-northeasterly oriented intermediate opaque, angularly disposed or staggered collector panels 42. In the south facade vision areas 46 are shaded by horizontally disposed opaque collector panels 44. Manifestly, the angle of the windows on east and west facades, as well as the angle of the collector panels may be varied, according to the sun'latitude. Similarly, the angle of the shading collector panels 44 may be varied so as to prevent the winter sun exposure to the vision area.
FIG. 6 the rooftop collector panel 22 is illustrated fragmentarily and superposed with respect to collector panels 44 which shade the respective vision areas 46. The rooftop and east-west collector panels may be constructed similarly to include a clear and insulated clear glass cover 51, a collector plate 52, with integral liquid channels 53 and a back-up insulation member 60. Insulation 48 may be interposed intermediate the bottom of the collector panel and the building wall, so as to enclose a circulating plenum or duct 50.
In FIG. 8 the east-west facade collector panel is illustrated in enlarged detail. The collector plate may have a selective surface coating and may be a flat metal plate clad with formed metal plate. Alternatively, the collector panel may include a flat metal plate with welded attached tubes or other combination.
In FIG. 7 the collector panels on the east facade are disposed at a 30� angle; however, this angle may be varied, according to latitude. The individual panels may have disconnect zones I, II, III or the like which may be circuited to cut out of the system when shaded from the sun.
In FIG. 9 the air and piping diagram is illustrated, as including individual air supply boxes 61 and 63, respectively representing a variable volume interior room air supplies as well as exterior room air supplies that are also illustrated for heat exchange as interposed between the low rise supply air conduit 58 and the reheat water supply 62 conduit and return 64. As illustrated in FIG. 9 air in the low rise supply conduit 58, for example, is directed into interior supply 61 and also into the exterior room supply 63 with reheat exchange to reheat water from reheat coil pump 91. This air is schematically illustrated to return to the low rise air supply 72 through air return 59. As shown, the reheat water from 63 is returned through 64 upwardly past all such reheat boxes 63 and finally returned by reheat water reverse line 71 to hot water storage tank 86. A high rise air supply unit 70 and a low rise air supply unit 72 may be employed adjacent the reheat water reverse return conduit 71.
As illustrated in FIGS. 9 and 10, chilled water cooling coils 74 and 78 may be positioned above chilled water supply and return conduit 76 communicating respectively with the storage tank 86 and chilled water pumps 84 chillers 82 and hot water pumps 80. Reheat coil pumps 91 may be positioned, so as to have access to storage tank 86 and the reheat water supply and return conduit 62, 64. Manifestly, a series of valves may be employed to block off circulation in vertical segments, of those panels on the southern facade, as well as lateral and vertical segments of those panels on the eastern and western facades. These valves to selectively control heat recovery by admitting the solar heated water supply, for example to certain liquid channels 53 in zones I, II, and III of FIG. 7 are schematically illustrated as VI, VII and VIII.
In FIG. 10 a condensor water diagram is further illustrated as comprising chillers 82, condenser water supply 94 and condensor water reverse return 92 communicant with condensor water pumps and an optional cooling tower 97 with associated condenser water pumps 99 positioned in the building roof. Typical lighting fixtures 98 are illustrated as cooled by conduit 96 leading from the condensor water supply. As illustrated in FIGS. 9 and 10 taken together, the representation of "chiller" 82 is firstly schematic of a heat pump system wherein hot water pumps 80 supply an energy source to effect chilling of the chilled water return from 76. As hereinabove disclosed, any other type of thermodynamic heat removal may be used to supply chilled fluid to interior cooling coils 78. The cooling circuit from 84 together with the heated liquid at 80 also schematically illustrate interconnections such as are conventional in solar operated absorption refrigeration systems. In this respect the U.S. Pat. to Bremser, No. 2,030,350, herinabove incorporated, represents a conventional solar operated absorption circuit which may be the operative fluid circuit 76 between a heat source at 80 and the cooling or evaporator coil at 78.
In FIG. 11 a heat recoverage and storage system is illustrated as including storage tank 86 having median baffle 88, heat recovery pumps 110 and auxilliary stand by heater 108, communicating with solar heating water return 106. The heat recovery pumps communicate with solar heating water supply 100, as well as solar heating water reverse return 102. An expansion tank 104 may be positioned at the building rooftop.
In a typical 35 story office building, a controlled interior climate may be achieved by the following:
1. Minimization of heating and air conditioning requirements by respectively minimizing heat loss in winter through the exterior wall by means of maximum insulation in opaque areas, double glazing in vision areas, and by minimizing solar heat gain in the summer by orienting vision glass to the north on the north facade, north-northwest on the west side, and completely shading vision glass on the south side by means of angled solar collectors and;
2. Collection of all solar energy striking the building facade and roof by means of double or triple glazed clear glass covered collectors made of coated copper or aluminum plates, with integral or attached fluid carrying channels, connected to pipes, containing a liquid (e.g., water or water and ethylene glycol) which is heated to optimum temperature, returned to a central location at the base of the building, then redistributed through the building where needed for heating in the winter, and used to operate an absorption cycle or other such known system operable upon heat exchange with a heated fluid, amply illustrated by the prior art for a refrigeration equipment in the summer. An insulated storage tank in the basement stores excess hot liquid for night time cooling or heating, any excess hot liquid can be sold to neighboring buildings;
3. The integration of the above two principles results in a novel design which, with the exception of energy for lighting, can be a net exporter of energy, meaning that the excess of solar energy collected on sunny and mildly overcast days vs. that needed for heating and cooling the subject building can be exported in a quantity greater than that needed to be imported (gas, oil, steam or electric backup) on a day or days when solar energy is not available in adequate quantities to heat or cool subject building.
As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the particular chillers 82 and 90, respectively, for air conditioning or cooling purposes may be a conventional low temperature (200� to 245�F) "water fired" unit such as that manufactured by Arkla-Servel and designated WF-1200.

12 inch Jonas Brothers doll taller than 2 out of 3 Jonas Brothers
LOS ANGELES - This week's launch of the action figure likenesses of the popular Jonas Brothers has exposed surprising news regarding the diminutive stature of each member of the boy band sensation. Reporters learned two of the Jonas Brothers are actually smaller than their action figure counterparts.
During a recent press conference the Jonas Brothers appeared alongside their newly released doll counterparts, and reporters had difficulty differentiating the real Jonas Brothers from the dolls. Rolling Stone Magazine reporter, Gavin Edwards commented, "These guys are a lot smaller than anyone realized. We always knew they were little fellas. That's probably what makes them so cute but I never dreamed they were this tiny."
Industry watchers say until now the tiny size of the Jonas Brothers has been concealed in their videos using a system of miniature stage props and computer generated imagery. Additionally, experts say live concerts represent a difficult logistical challenge for performers this small. Creating the illusion of larger scale requires sophisticated magnification technology.
The small size of the performers also presents additional safety concerns. Reportedly, all three of the Jones Brothers was seriously injured while rough housing with the newly released Hannah Montana doll which is considerably larger than the Jonas Brothers both in size and weight. Tour Manager, Daniel Kreps, commented, "While on tour, we try to keep the brothers limited to playing with toys no larger than plastic army men and to use caution even with items that size. A mishap with a seemingly innocent toy could easily result in the loss of Jonas Brother and that is something the world doesn't need right now."

I can leave this little Clementine in its pot for a while, right?
Just picked it up today. I'm still learning my way around container citrus gardening. From the size of this dwarf, I think it should be OK in the same pot for another year. Does it need any fertilizer now? I see some green pellets in the soil.
Nice tree!!
how well does the soil drain. I would say that the size of the pot would be just fine for a year, my concern is that nursery soil, while good for temporary, is usually not good at all for long term. Have you pull out the roots and looked at them. If there is still room for them to grow you should be ok. Painting the pot a light color will help keep the roots from getting burned up in the hot sun.
spring is always a good time to re-pot. I have done citrus in spring, early summer, late summer, fall. The key is to give it a week of rest in shade then gradually into filtered sun then full sun and extra water after you re-pot is good too.
if are planning to use one of AL's mixes or another soiless mix then the best thing you can do is try and remove all of the nursery mix as best as you can. Some people use a strong stream of water to blast out the existing soil and some people will use a bucket of water to help loosen the dirt. Citrus rebound well so dont be to afraid to get in there and dig out the old stuff.
If you aren't totally confident in citrus gardening using containers, I would suggest you leave it in the current mix until next spring. We have this privilege living directly in the citrus belt.
During the 1st year you learn watering, root temp protection, fert, and pests. More importantly, you learn a baseline behavior for a container citrus. Like what is normal and not for your tree.
Then when you repot completely into a new mix in a larger container, you have so many fewer issues to contend with.
Container trees are different than in-ground, I always suggest this to my family and friends when they purchase a fresh tree from a retail nursery.
I have a couple other citruses in containers since last year, and I've noticed that the soil stays wet too long. They're showing new growth now, but I think they should be showing more than what I'm seeing. I want to do it the "correct" way, now,with regards to the soil mix, rather than wait to see weak or no growth at a later time.

Ivy Question
I have an old house with poor soil and a lot of shade in back. I have some bare areas where it is on a small slope and is shaded (bright, not heavy shade.) I wonder if ivy would do to try to fill in so it's not just bare ground?
I think the soil is bare because there is nothing growing there except shrubs and no plants that would creep like crab grass, so nothing grows on the small slope. I'm wondering if I plant ivy at the top of the slope if it will grow downward to fill it in.
I've seen an excellent example of periwinkle ground cover just this spring, full, lush and bright green color.
I never saw ivy do well on the ground except the 5 leaf ivy, that may be the one called, Virginia Ivy.
Bolax, is another ground cover that grows well, almost anywhere.
I'm originally from zone 5 (Ill.) and English ivy--Hedera helix--barely existed. It would not have made a good ground cover there. Later, I lived in Georgia and it was THE major groundcover for large shade areas. It survives in dry shade. (No matter what you plant, you'll need to provide water while it becomes established.) So ascertain whether English Ivy grows well where you live. If you use it, since it's a vine, you'll need to have some plan for containing it at its edges. In the Atlanta climate, once established, the leading edges advanced about 3' per year. In in my own yard, I trimmed the leading edges twice per year. At back edges, if they won't be seen, can be sprayed with a 2 or 3' band of Roundup as an easy way to trim. This won't kill the plant; it will just "burn" the edge and vastly slow the growth. You wouldn't want English ivy to grow on structures--unless maybe you wanted it on a fence and were willing to sacrifice the fence to a shortened life. An exception is chain link. It can't do much to that except turn it nicely green. Eventually, it will "eat" part of the chain link, but not tear it down. Since it will climb trees, you can easily remove it once per year if you don't want it on them. I let it grow waist high on some of my trees as I liked the look and it made maintenance easier (no bending.) If you allow it to climb trees, it will advance to the mature state, flower, breed and produce seeds which might cause it to spread by means you can't control. In Georgia this wasn't really a problem, but I understand some places, it is. Check locally to see if it's considered an aggressive weed that shouldn't be planted or if it's just something to use with reasonable caution. Most vines (many of which are groundcovers) need some vigilance as to their "extracurricular" activities.
You mentioned also Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia). This has a wider range of habitat and grows farther north than Hedera helix so I'm sure it would work where you live. It can be used as a groundcover and can also be rampant. The main practical difference between it and English Ivy is that it's not evergreen. From what I've seen, I consider it a faster grower than H. helix. The same cautions apply. It will produce seed more prolifically.
Vinca minor can be a nice groundcover IF it will grow well where you live. You might check with the local garden center for advice on what other groundcovers work well in your area.
Pachysandra is another great ground cover for shade, very commonly planted in the northeastern USA. If soil fertility is really low, and you also have lots of tree roots at the surface, you may need to amend with compost or top soil and provide regular periodic irrigation to get any ground cover to establish in this area.
In all too many cases I find the planting of ivy to be the default plant of the unimaginative.
For your CT climate you might want to give gallium ( sweet woodruff) a try or epimedium , convallaria, and or bergenia.
As mentioned above, pachysandra does extremely well in your climate and makes a beautiful groundcover. There are some lovely variegated varieties too.
If you have a trip planned to Massachusetts it would be worth your while to visit the ground cover display garden at the Case Estates in Weston MA. This property was , until just a few years ago, part of Harvard University's horticultural holdings for teaching and research. The ground cover exhibition area is quite large with dozens of 8x8 panels of live groundcovers with detailed cultural information at each panel.
The rest of the grounds are quite beautiful and just as horticulturally rich with detailed cultural information.
Thanks for the replies I will do a search for ivy. I have some out in front and our climate seems to contain it. I imagine that in GA it can really take over.
I'm not unimaginative. I happen to love ivy, have it both growing in my kitchen and on my curtains. I love the shape of the leaves and the grace of the vine. I also have 5 large dogs and whatever I plant has to be able to take a beating -- hence my choice of ivy. :)
