The adviser as missionary?
Peter Ellen offers you the best advice you never paid for.
May 6, 2013 3:06 by kippreport
For many years of my life, I have been employed in an advisory capacity. Sometimes, as an employee, I have trained and coached my colleagues, with the result that I have been lucky enough to be asked to mentor some of them, too. At other times, as a management consultant, I have been paid to advise companies about problems that fall within my particular, if limited, field of competence, as well as act as a personal coach to some senior managers and directors.
What has all this taught me?
First, I now believe that we value what we pay for more than what we don't. Advice that is given freely is, unfortunately, seen as worthless.
Secondly, in a business-to-business relationship (such as client and management consultant), the client is more often looking for a problem to be solved than advice as to how to solve the problem for himself.
Thirdly, unless the client (individual or organisation) specifically asks for advice, the chances that he will accept and act on it are quite low ("between slim and nil" as one client put it to me when I was much younger and keen to change the world).
Is there a more general message here for people in advisory positions?
Let's suppose we have dealt with the three points raised above – the client is prepared to pay; he wants advice; and wants to solve the problem. What is the key to being a successful adviser?
Professionalism – the one word that sums it all up. To be professional involves, on the one hand, being competent, and competence is a mixture of technical expertise (as an adviser, you have to have some solutions in your kitbag, and more importantly, you have to have diagnostic skills to work out the nature of the problem, in order to select the right solution) and professional qualifications (to reassure the client that your technical expertise is supported by external accreditation).
On the other hand, being a professional involves 'bedside manner' (the client wants to feel listened to, appreciated and recognised as an individual with a unique problem, even if the adviser has seen the same problem a hundred times before) and experience (no client wants to be an adviser's first client).
So, the equation for professionalism is (technical expertise + professional qualifications) x (bedside manner + experience). Through the astute application of these attributes, the adviser can build a trust-based relationship, allowing him to help the client to solve the problem…professionally.

$3250 to cut RO for new windows
Hello, all
Can any one tell me if it is fair price to cut window opening on an stucco exterior? The window I want is about 29" wide and 47" tall. Pella charge $3250 to cut opening and will not finish exterior. So we have to hire stucco guy to finish job. Window only cost about $480.
I also wonder how much to pay for stucco repair per SF. in Seattle area. Thanks
The charge to cut out can vary depending on what area you live in. It is not out of line to pay $1000 or more for a cut out thru a frame up wall and about $1500 or more to cut thru brick. I don't know exactly what the charge is to cut thru stucco since stucco is mainly a West Coast project. However, the above prices DO include frame out inside and out, so make your own decisions about paying $3250. There may be something unusual about the cut out but, at the very least, I'd get a few more estimates.
thank you all for the response. The price is include the framing the rough opening, but not include cutting out of drywall inside and does not include the finishing the interior. We are doing a bathroom remodeling, and everything is out already, dry wall, etc, we also can frame the rough opening ourselves. So far we got 2 bids, this window cost $3000 to $3500 to install, according to those 2 companies. We are looking for other options. We have done some research, we maybe installation ourselves, and have stucco guy to patch what would be damaged. I believe I could replace this window every another year at this installation price.
But we still waiting for another bid to come in next week. Need some windows to be replaced at the same time.
The problem with cutting a new opening in stucco is that the water barrier will get cut and repairing it is just about impossible. We have been dealing with this rolling disaster at at customer's house. The water gets under the tyvek (or tarpaper) and soaks the sheathing, which of course rots. It doesn't stop there: rots the framing as well.
With the water membrane cut, you are relying solely on the perfection of the caulk joint at the window's edges to keep water out, and that is never reliable.
You need to ask how they plan on cutting only through the stucco/lath without damaging the paper immediately beneath it.
Of course, we are here on the damp east coast; maybe it never rains where you are located, or you have very large roof overhangs, etc., to mitigate.
And yes, I believe that the figure you were given for one penetration is ridiculous.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Sterling decision a sign of progress
The general consensus is justice has been done in the case of Donald Sterling, the controversial owner of the NBA team the Los Angeles Clippers. The decision announced by NBA commissioner Adam Silver to ban Sterling for life and fine him $2.5 million (and proceed with the intent to force him to sell the team) in response to his recorded racist remarks about African-Americans has been hailed as the only response NBA officials could have made.
Moreover, the tough punishment is a defining statement on how far the U.S. has come in the 50 years.
As far as can be determined, the first time a professional sports owner got into trouble as a result of racism was during the 1990s when Marge Schott, the controlling owner and CEO of the Cincinnati Reds baseball franchise from 1984 to 1999, was accused repeatedly of making racist and bigoted comments about African-Americans, Jews, the Japanese and gays. She was eventually banned from running the team and sold her interest. Yet while controversy engulfed her, there was no threat of a player or fan boycott.
Schott, born in 1928, was regarded a relic of another age. In fact, her racist opinions, like Sterling's (who was born in 1934), were a product of the world both of them grew up in during the 1930s and '40s. (Sterling's parents were Jewish immigrants who undoubtedly confronted anti-Semitism, but this does not seem to have had any bearing on his repugnant attitudes. As an adult, he changed his name from Tokowitz to Sterling, shedding his Jewish roots.)
The attitudes of that era, in which white Protestant supremacy was the accepted norm throughout North America, had endured for centuries, and continued to do so until well after the Second World War. Only then did American and Canadian governments gradually begin to institute anti-discrimination laws. The prejudice remained ingrained, however, and has not entirely vanished.
This racist reality was most evident in the segregated American south. Clifford Roberts, one of the founders of the Augusta National Golf Club and chairman of the Masters tournament from 1934 to 1976, once declared that, "As long as I'm alive, all the golfers will be white and all the caddies will be black." And, it was not until 1975 that an African-American golfer, Lee Elder, competed. But the racism also existed in a more understated, though just as prejudicial and discriminatory, way in cities like New York, Chicago, Toronto and Winnipeg.
Such attitudes did not change easily, which makes the near-universal condemnation of Sterling all the more meaningful.
Consider that 50 years ago, in July 1964, and a century after Abraham Lincoln had abolished slavery, the U.S. federal government passed the Civil Rights Act, which "outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin."
At the time, the owner of Washington, D.C.'s NFL franchise, the Redskins, was George Preston Marshall. He was one of the founders of the team and had come up with "Redskin," as racist a name for a sports team as there ever has been.
Marshall promoted the team throughout the south as "Dixie's team," and as late as 1961 absolutely refused to draft any black players, though African-Americans were playing for other NFL teams by 1946. It was only in 1961, after the city built the team a new stadium on federal land that Stewart Udall, the secretary of the interior, brought enough pressure to bear on Marshall, threatening to forbid the team the use of the new facilities, that he begrudgingly signed a black player the following season.
Despite his Donald Sterling-like attitudes, he remained the Redskins' owner until his death in 1969. In his will, he left the bulk of his estate, $6 million, for the establishment of a team foundation to help underprivileged children with one stipulation: That no money shall be used for "any purpose which supports or employs the principal of racial integration in any form."
According to Massachusetts historian Thomas G. Smith, the author of the 2011 book Showdown about the Marshall-Udall fight, within a year, the courts ruled the proviso was illegal so the foundation's work was never hampered by it.
On the other hand, the Redskins' current owner Daniel Snyder, has adamantly refused to change the objectionable name of the team, keeping that part of Marshall's legacy intact.
Now & Then is a column in which historian Allan Levine puts the events of today in a historical context.

Halloween is "Busting" out
Several years ago I saw a decorated bust by Judith on the RMS site. I have looked for one ever since and found her last Monday at Unique TS.
Here she is in her Halloween finery:
The Poe vignette is created from a YS book, TS frame, candleholders, and raven, and a Poe portrait printed off of the internet and a Nevermore scrolled paper I printed on the computer.
The top of the hutch has mostly TS finds except the crockery floral holder and the silk arrangement in it that I made many yrs ago.
The hutch has some of my Halloween plates and decor, all of them are TS.
The top of the fridge with the 2 larger Jacks from the Hom. Gds. after Halloween clearance last year, the smaller one is TS as is the ghost cupcake, and the mini pumpkins in the apothecary jar. Also TS are the floral wreath, and the wire floral pumpkin.
Happy Halloween,
You are indeed busting out! Love the ladies bust all decked out for Halloween! And your hutch looks fantastic...so many things to look at and admire. I especially like the Halloween plates and mini pumpkin mugs. Really love the mini pumpkins in the apothecary jar too...I've looked for those this year, but haven't found any yet. TFS~
Candy, so happy you found your Bust!LOL It looks great all decked out for Halloween. I remember Judith's bust on one of her ts and it was NICE! Wonderful job on your Poe vignette.
I'm lovin' your china cabinet all decorated for fall and Halloween. You really put alot of time in on this and I for one Thank You. Oh and I love your Jack's and ghost on top of the fridge. It's all just so pretty.
"June is busting out all over ... all over the meadow & the dale..." Ohhh...I'm singing that song now! I love, love, love the bust! Your perserverance pd off! I know you will have her decorated all yr round...lovely!
The Poe vignette ...so Halloweeny ... simple & a bit on the dark side ...like Poe himself.
Your china hutch is wonderful w/all your TS finds ...you are a pro @that! & the decorated top of your hutch is pretty/Fallish...but I think the top of your fridge is a bit 'scary' ...fits the season...but those pumpkin people...IDK, candy...pretty spooky! ;-) You're ready for the season! TFS! Jeanne S.
Marlene, thank you so much. I was so excited to see that bust in the TS as I think she has a really sweet face and is just perfect for what I wanted! I have been looking for one for quite a while but they are rare creatures in thrift stores!
The mini pumpkin mugs were acquired one by one but I finally have a set of them. Both sets of plates in the hutch were still in their original boxes!
Good luck on finding your mini pumpkins.
Punk, thank you too! I pretty much have the entire lower level of the house Halloweened (is that a word? LOL) out!
Except for DH's office, I only get to decorate that for Christmas and then it is minimal.
This is my first time decorating the top of the hutch as I am running out of places to put things, so moved higher LOL!!
Jeanne, I bought the Poe book last spring at a YS in Sedona and wasn't even thinking Halloween, it was just a beautifully bound book. BUT....when I started to get out the Halloween decor - light bulb moment!! I had found the large black raven at a TS this year and the frame was from last year, so it all started coming together. The fact that I had that black cabinet, (GdWl several years ago) seemed like the perfect place to display it! Especially as you observed, Poe was dark and most of his work was as well!
The top of the hutch will stay after Halloween. All I have to do is exchange the Trick or Treat bucket for a different holder, and remove the little Jack O'Lantern.
The Jacks on the fridge top seem very vintage feeling to me and they are all smiling, : ) Maybe it was the Boo on the ghost cupcake that frightened you! LOL
Thanks again ladies for all your encouraging comments. This is definitely my favorite playground because of all the wonderful people here.
Happy Halloween,
I could have sworn I posted yesterday, but apparently only in my imagination. How neat you found a Bust to decorate.
When Judith use to post here, we'd see her lovely lady often in vignettes. She was especially pretty at Christmas. I also wanted to find one. Hunted and hunted but no luck, at least not at decent prices. Then a year ago I found one in Home Goods ($10) and decided she was coming home with me! She's on my desk in my study, just have pearls on her and haven't used her in decor...yet.
Funny how we never know we 'need' something, till we see it on here. ;o)
I LOVE, LOVE the top of your hutch! That is really striking!
Of course if I had it, Jazz-Trouble would be up there too!
LOL. The inside is also decorated so neat. (I'm kind of feeling like Jeanne about the Jacks on the fridge. Those things always freak me out for some reason. Too many horror movies as a child?)
I am so in awe of your "Halloweened" House. WOW.
hugs, Karen

1996 Acura TL 3.2 Premium 4dr Sedan
Excellent car. I bought a five-year
old '96 with somewhat high miles but I
got a very good price. Interior is
wonderful and the exterior is solid, if
somewhat conservative. The only nit I
have with it is that the driver's side
window sometimes comes unsealed at 75
or 80 and I get a lot of wind noise.
Dealer servicing was obscene so I am
finding a new mechanic.

I have had this car for six months now with no problems whatever. I am so happy. I researched a million cars before buying and I am defintely a satisfied consumer! It handles well with good pick up. It's so quiet which is a MUST with me. It's roomy but not too big. Jumping from a Nissan Sentra to this I was a little worried feeling like I was driving "too" big of a car but I don't feel like that at all. The only downside I had to that is getting used to the lower miles/gallon.

I am 16 and this is my first car. From the first time that I saw it, I knew it was the one I wanted. It has the Acura/Honda name so you know it is reliable and luxurious. There aren't that many performance parts and stuff for it out there, but you can do a lot of stuff to it and make it look really nice. check out www.acura-tl.com if you want to see some of them fixed up!

My wife & I bought our TL used from a Honda dealer in suburban Seattle. For what we were spending (~$20k), it was the best deal in a 4-dr sport luxe sedan. It's extremely reliable (Honda!), very practical (Honda!), and quite upscale (Honda?!). For a long car, it handles well. Not BMW precise, and it's too softly tuned, but good. The turning radius is astounding. Passengers love the interior for its simplicity yet elegance. I feel the same about the exterior styling, tho it's conservative.

Supernova Secrets Seen In X-Rays 23
from the check-it-out 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).
Universal, no, but physicists agree, and, really, who else matters? X-rays are emitted by electrons (atomic transitions or bremsstrahlung); gamma rays by nuclear transitions. Those definitions have been pretty well agreed upon by physicists for at least the last 15 years.
Astronomers, however, seem to characterize photons only by energy, which kind of makes sense if you realize that they frequently don't know the origin of the observed photons and build instruments for energy ranges instead.
But nonetheless it is still incorrect to characterize these photons as "x-rays."

Big Brother 13 Cast Announcement Soon, Says BB Casting Director| June 27, 2011 at 10:15 AM EDT
We've been expecting the Big Brother 13 cast news and now we know we'll get it soon, very soon, says Robyn Kass. Kass, the casting director for Big Brother, announced on Twitter yesterday, "BB13 cast announcement almost here!!! Woo Hoo."
As I mentioned on Friday, we're hoping to start getting some solid Big Brother news this week with cast and house details revealed Tuesday or Wednesday. As soon as the news hits, it will all be posted here so be sure to keep checking back.
While the soon-to-arrive Big Brother 13 premiere is great news, it also signals the end of the preseason sale on the Big Brother Live Feeds. Starting premiere day, July 7th, the price of watching the uncensored feeds goes up from $9.99 to $14.99 for monthly access. You've got ten days left to lock in the season pass rate so don't wait any longer.
Big Brother 13 Preseason Roadmap To Premiere Night| June 24, 2011 at 9:48 AM EDT
We're getting a lot of "when is this, "when is that" questions for the upcoming season of Big Brother so I thought it'd be best to let everyone know what we know and when we can expect to know more (you know?). These dates are based on information we've gathered and past seasons which has been a reliable pattern to follow.
Big Brother 13 Roadmap to Premiere Night:
- Big Brother Live Feed Early Bird discount starts – June 17
- Big Brother 13 finalists sequestered – Estimated: June 19
- Big Brother Press Day (BB13 HG interviews) – June 27
- Big Brother 13 house reveal – June 28
- Big Brother 13 cast reveal – June 30 @ 9AM
- BB13 HGs enter the house – July 2
- Live Feed preseason discount expires – July 6

- Big Brother Live Feed Android App available – July 7
- Big Brother 13 premieres on CBS – July 7 @ 9PM ET/PT

Schedule updated with the latest info and dates.
The Big Brother broadcast schedule will be Sundays (8PM ET/PT), Wednesdays (8PM ET/PT), and Thursdays (9PM ET/PT). So the same days as last season, but a different, later time for Thursday's live eviction shows.
Big Brother 13 Preseason: Happy Hour Live Show Today On SuperPass| June 23, 2011 at 9:29 AM EDT

Big Brother Live Feed Preseason Discount Expires In 15 Days| June 22, 2011 at 8:24 AM EDT

On BB13 premiere day the price goes up from $9.99 a month with the season pass to $14.99 with the monthly rate. When the sale is gone, it is gone until next preseason.

The funnyman was a guest on breakfast show Today when host Gifford began probing his personal life and praising Short's long marriage to tragic Nancy Dolman, clearly unaware she had died two years ago.
Short handled the uncomfortable chat with grace and skirted over the questions on air, prompting a mortified Gifford to take to her Twitter.com account to acknowledge the insensitive blunder later that day.
And owning up to her mistake after the show, she took to Twitter.com and wrote, "I send my sincerest apologies to @MartinShort and his family. He handled situation w/ (with) enormous grace and kindness and I'm so grateful."
And the Father of the Bride star has since made peace with Gifford over the incident, insisting he knew she meant no harm.
He tells E! News, "I think that it's live television and people make mistakes and there's no ill will intended."

The teaching fraternity owes much to Prof. G.N. Chakravarthy
Opposite the famous Banni Mantapa in Mysore, in huge, sprawling premises, St. Philomena's College got on its feet in 1947. From the very first day of its existence, I served the college as a teacher of Kannada. It was perhaps in 1948, that the college had a Sanskrit Department. G.N. Chakravarthy was appointed as Sanskrit teacher. It was only after he joined college that I met him. Sparkling white dhoti, a beige close-collared overcoat, a Mysore peta with a golden border and a long, red naama (a religion marker) on his forehead… his persona radiated dignity and seriousness. Soon he had a big following in college. In fact, he was looked upon with awe and respect by one and all, especially for starting a free canteen for poor students.
By the time Chakravarthy joined college he was already a scholar in Sanskrit literature, of the Vedanta and Vedic philosophy. He had studied all the philosophical texts of the West and it was evident in his erudite discourses. When the Mysore Palace published 36 volumes of Rigveda, Chakravarthy supervised the entire series. The subject was complex and it required tremendous amount of study, and we were so proud that 'our' Chakravarthy was part of the project.
Chakravarthy and I shared an intimate relationship. We kept each other's company, talked, discussed and went out together; almost like Kannada and Sanskrit couldn't bare to be separated. A man of great conviction and integrity, nothing ever prevented him from right action. This is something that I want to share, something for which the entire teaching community must remember him for. When the college management failed to sanction DA as per their promise, teachers of the college went on a strike. The architect of the Navya movement, M. Gopalakrishna Adiga was in the English department of our college. Chakravarthy along with Adiga met the Syndicate members and explained the crisis; they also called a press conference and briefed the press about it. They left no stone unturned and ensured that the future of teachers in private colleges was made secure. K.V. Puttappa who was the vice-chancellor of the Mysore University then, framed rules and regulations for the smooth and effective functioning of private colleges. I distinctly remember the mercurial zeal of Chakravarthy who ran from pillar to post – he even met members of the legislative council. In fact, he was largely responsible for the University to take notice of the problems of private colleges. He met the UGC chairperson and ensured that language teachers got UGC pay scale too.
Chakravarthy and I shared a close bond for nearly three decades. Even in times of great crisis, he never failed a promise. My trust in him was always implicit. I cherish the days…

This plugin will check your posts, comments and other content for broken links and missing images, and notify you if any are found.
Second review of this plugin, over 135k links were scanned.
The good points : almost everything. The plugin does its job well, will update posts properly. These results are nothing short of praiseworthy.
I know I'll list many more bad points than good points, but I also see the latter as constructive criticism, and the good points are, simply, massive, the plugin did its job and did it damn WELL!
The bad points :
- the plugin BADLY needs a "bad domains" feature. Some domains expire, and are bought by other companies and then put back online for advertising unrelated stuff, and in such a case, the broken links checker believes these are good links, it won't even list them for checking.
Sadly, they are now dead links not pointing anymore to the initial pages.
It would be GREAT if we could tell the broken links checker which domans are to be considered as bad and listed among the broken links.
(Updating : the plugin author answered arbout this, apparenty this isn't going to be implemented, but we can go to the links management section in Tools > Link Checker, and manually search for the bad domain names, and tick have them all unlinked. Decent enough workaround.)
- Sometimes I write text with a part between double quotes or with a superior sign in the descriptions of images, and I occasionally found the plugin had problems with & quot ; and & gt ; (I'm adding spaces, not sure if the present form formatting won't take them for double quotes otherwise) in the alt= and title= fields of images, it believed it was broken code. That's not always happening, oddly.
- it's not a really bad point, but, still, when we talk about thousands, hundreds of thousands of dead links, the only solution is to always keep a tab with the blog admninistration open, otherwise, only hourly checks, it would take forever to scan all the links.
It would be nice to have an option to "repeat every minute", so that we don't need to, first thing in the morning, open again our blog admin, and leave it open all day, haha.
- in the Admin > Tools > Broken links, the broken links plugin creator has added on top of a page a tab with a green background called Admin Menu Editor. It took me five full minutes to realize it was a suggestion to add this other wordpress plugin; I had first believed this was an additional plugin that had been added alongside the broken links plugin. And I wasted a crazy time searching where this unwanted plugin was hidden so that I could - in vain, I understood later - uninstall it.
Exactly what you would want it to do. Helps fix links, shows broken links as broken if you want and is smart about it.
However, on two of my blogs it seems unable to see links in posts - which sort of defeats the object, obviously.
I installed it on my website [ link redacted, please do not post links in reviews ] It's good I don't have any broken links on my website. I think the plugin will work as like as I expected. Thanks for this.
Been using for 2+ years without problems.
It's a very useful plugin when your site becomes old and you have to check all these dead links. But it can slow your site and it creates a hudge database table you have to clean after use. As it's not a "every day usage plugin", it's not really a problem.
This plug is pretty close to a gotta have, once your site gets sufficiently large. Link rot is a constant fight and Broken Link Checker is your weapon to combat it. Thanks.
working fine
Good plugin! I just tried this on a blog and am pleasantly suprised at how many dead links it found. Very cool. I like the fact that it let me "unlink them" instead of deleting the posts or just putting a line through the link.
The plugin makes all my admin pages go blank as soon as it is activated, and the only solution I've found so far is to manually delete it (using FTP). Also, there is apparently no support in the forum.
I have the feeling that the plugin (probably) places too much stress on the server, at least in my particular case.
I want to be fair and correct my previous comment:
After my bad previous experience I decided to give it another try, and installed the last version (1.9.2). This version works correctly in my site - or, at least, does not give me the problems that a previous one did, and that I mentioned in my other message.
I have used this plugin for years and it has always worked great. However in the last few weeks this plugin finds hundreds of supposedly broken links which are working just fine. The message is always the same 503 error. Anyone know what is causing that? I hope it's just a temporary glitch that will be fixed soon.

Although cattle are often collectively referred to as cows, the word cow specifically refers to females of the cattle species that have given birth to at least one calf. Young female cattle that have not yet given birth to a calf are referred to as heifers.Know More
The word calf is used to refer to young cattle of both sexes until the point at which they are weaned. After weaning, they are known as yearlings until they reach the age of 2. At that point, the females become known as heifers until they give birth and become known as cows. Male cattle ages 2 and older are known as bulls. If a male is castrated, it is called a steer.Learn more in Barnyard Mammals
Adult size for cows can vary significantly due to breed and sex, although large breeds can weigh 1,400 pounds or more. Smaller breeds weigh between 600 and 1,000 pounds. Bulls can grow over 3,000 pounds in rare occasions.Full Answer >
There is evidence suggesting that cows do have feelings. As herd animals, they have extensive social relationships and may experience emotions such as stress, fear and pleasure.Full Answer >
Cows go into estrus for four to 30 hours, which is indicated by swelling and redness of the vulva and general restlessness. During this time they are ridden by other cattle, both male and female. The full estrous cycle lasts between 14 and 24 days. Ovulation occurs approximately 12 hours after estrus ends. Gestation lasts between 240 and 330 days.Full Answer >
According to Texas Natural Wildlife, coyotes are a severe threat to cattle and tend to attack both adult cows and calves when their forage supplies are low, such as during the winter months. Additional predators include black bears, grizzly bears, crows, wolves, dogs and mountain lions.Full Answer >

Capital Culinairian Rangetop vs. Blue Star Rangetop Series 48"
I am wondering if anyone as any first hand experience with either of these range tops? I have read other posts on here, but none that directly compare the two. I would love to know about pros, cons, maintenance, customer service, or any other pertinent information.
Also, did you purchase yours locally or online. (We do not have a local dealer.)
This will be a new construction and we have never had a professional gas range top.
My wife and I have been reading and visiting dealers for both the CC and BS for some time. We finally decided we wanted a 48" rangetop with 24" grill. Here's what key things we found (of course our opinion):
1. Appearance:
CC has a really nice high-end residential finish
BS has more of a commercial heavy appearance
2. Burners:
CC: has open burners and all are the same size and big (23k)
BS: has open burners with 3 different sizes standard (2-22k, 1-15k, and 1 simmer). BS also allows for custom burner sizes and locations (at a cost)
3. Grates:
CC: one piece cast iron per burner (wok will need a wok ring)
BS: 2 piece cast iron per burner (no wok ring needed - remove the inner grate)
4. Burner Cleaning: (both have drawers at the bottom of rangetop to collect spills)
CC: also has stainless shields under grates to prevent spills from dropping down into rangetop
(if spills drop past shields - all 4 grates may need to be removed to clean)
BS: remove a single grate to access spills that drop into the rangetop
5. Grill:
CC: 30k with ceramic rods over burners cased in stainless and has cast iron grates
BS: 30k with stainless shields over burners and cast iron grates
6. Costs:
7. Service & Support
Neither has an authorized dealer close by where we need it installed.
(However our local BS dealer put in writing they would support it even if they needed to drive the long distance)
8. History (this may not be exact but how it appears based on all the research)
CC: some people have issues with simmer (adjustments may fix this) - others have stated they need a smaller burner
BS: Garland is a long time commercial range and they sold the residential part which is now BlueStar. A few years back, BS seemed to have some quality and support issues, especially with the ovens. It seems these issues may have been corrected.
9. Reliability
Overall both seem to be good.
So what did we do and why:
We purchased the BS 48". The key determining factors for us were the burner sizes, grill design, and support. We really liked having different size burners since we have a variety of items we cook, especially the small burner for lots of delicate simmers. The CC burners may be fine for simmer but with this amount of money, it was just too much of a gamble for us - especially since BS had a variety of burner sizes. Also, when I look into our outdoor Weber grill, which really does a good job, it has shields over the burners similar to BS instead of ceramic rods. Maybe others have rods or the rods may even be better - I don't really know but liked the similarity of the BS to the Weber.
Both CC or BS would probably been fine for us. The CC looked better but we liked BS having variable size burners, a grill setup similar to our outdoor Weber grill, and the support our local BS dealer offered.
We ordered the BS a couple weeks ago and 11 days later it arrived. Hope to have it operational in about a month. Maybe I'll post details and pics later.
Here's a few threads I started when I was making that decision.
I ended up ordering the BS rangetop with 6 burners. It was mostly the look that decided it for me, honestly. I was a little bit worried about the simmer, too, because it would be a big headache for me to go through multiple adjustments that some CC's seem to need to get a good simmer.
But really, I think it's splitting hairs and they are both good.
Here is a link that might be useful: other thread
Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your research and opinions. We are still trying to decide, but thankfully have a few months to do so. We are in Chattanooga, TN. Closest dealer is 2 hours away. Prices we got on internet so far:
48" range top with griddle
Does that seem about right?
Thanks again!
I've read sooo many threads at this point that I've totally lost any timeline. Has the CC fixed their simmmer issue with a smaller burner....less holes etc..? Totally confused :((
I'm really leaning towards the BS as it seem there are really no complaints about simmer and any issues seem can be fixed by my DH since there are no local dealers.
Anyone have any good websites I can order a BS from?
Now I've got to get educated on ventilation and MUA...no clue.
