It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Okay so obviously, a few days ago Netflix agreed to pay comcast for direct connections to deliver its content to customers.
Well now Verizon is dropping packets on Netflix to get the same payday.
This is going to be the beginning of a horrid downward spiral of greed, price gouging and of course . . . we the consumers getting screwed.
What's getting my spidey-sense tingling is if this hits the gaming industry, what will it mean for smaller companies/indies and their ability to release multiplayer games? Or for services like Steam?
I'm not entirely certain why this double dipping is allowed, "pay us for internet", "okay, now pay us more for it not to suck."
It wouldn't be as much of a problem if we (consumers) had choices, but most people are stuck with one ISP in their area (two if they're lucky) and they're usually one of the big ones.
On top of the cable companies charging content providers for using their traffic (while already charging them to use it in the first place), there's nothing to stop them from simply saying, "Now we are offering the "media package" in which Netflix/Amazon/Hulu/youtube/etc actually work on your connection instead of playing at dial-up speeds".
Anyone else a bit nervous about this?
It's my understanding that Comcast is legally required to embrace net neutrality due to the terms of their last big merger, regardless of what the actual law is, so if Netflix is paying them for a better connection, it's because they want better service than the standard Comcast gives to everyone, not to maintain the same level of service.
Which isn't to say you are necessarily wrong about Verizon doing something shady with dropped packets, but I'm a Comcast customer, so I don't care about that.
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.
It could also be an opportunity to take down the internet monopolies currently in place.
Netflix will most likely raise their prices to pay the ISP tolls, which will then encourage us to scrutinize our ISP.
I suspect this will be only a short term win for the ISPs.
No one likes being blackmailed.

They don't openly "enforce it", but behind the scenes they throttle you down by the end of the month if you've been data hungry.
I don't know about you and where you live, but Comcast happens to be the only option for me if I want anything close to these speeds and I don't like not having choices.
The thing against net neutrality is competition. ISP providers typically lease communication conduits/poles from the city and place in their own lines. They then connect these lines to a main national network. An ISP provider can only throttle connections through these neighborhoods, as the national lines are owned by the FCC or companies who primarily manage national networks like Cogent. Some companies pay to use a private companies national lines so they can get fewer jumps, and these like the FCC lines are throttled to the fastest they can provide.
So issues against net neutrality is something you will only see at the local level where competition becomes an issue. I have Cox and like many Cable Providers in the early 2000's they throttled packets on port 80 because it was flooding their network. This was quickly changed once they started losing customers to DSL. Of course now Cox offers consistently fast speeds and had that recent boost in the speed they provide. Right now I am getting 40mb/s which is 15mb/s more than it was last year at the same price level.
Now the main issue against this practice is as partially explained through the issue above. The only way for an ISP to increase the speed of Netflix is make packets in a particular port faster. If they filtered packets it would be drearily slow to the point its not worth it. Now if you make one port faster you make any packet in that port faster. It does not take long to understand what ports Netflix uses and baby back your packet on that port. This is actually already in practice even without ISPs asking for money. In particular Youtube and BitTorrent ports are speed up by many ISPs because they know they are major draws for existing customers.
Update, today AT&T is asking for their payout too.
As far as online games not using much bandwidth. Never, ever, ever underestimate greed. If they could charge you for sending a single email they would.
Most folks out there running servers for websites and games won't pay the protection money.
Even if your ISP isn't one of the one's asking for payouts, most of the backbone is owned by folks like AT&T and Verizon, they own the wires, so they'll slow the site/games/videos down anyway.
Soon we'll have the same internet speed as Canada, where every ISP uses Bell's wires and Bell slows everything down, except for the select few sites that pay up.
At the end of the day, the customer has to pay though the nose for what they want most, (Ex: Netflix, WOW, EVE), be pestered with even more adds (YouTube, Hulu, Facebook?), and then have everything else load very, very, s-l-o-w-l-y.

Technically most of the internet is controlled by Internet Exchange Points. If you are with a good ISP like Cox, the only time you will communicate with ATT or Comcast is when your packet has reached the internet exchange point and going to someone who is an ATT or Comcast customer.
Internet Exchange Points are carrier neutral for the reason people will not want to do business with them otherwise, or they are a government controlled entity.
Using "Bell Wires" is rather dumb for the internet. For signal travels slowly compared to Fiber Optic Lines. Most Bell Wires were laid out in Copper, and the communication infrastructure changed in the late 1980's to Fiber Optic after Bell was disintegrated.
I was talking about Bell in Canada, where it's still alive and has a monopoly.

"Neutrality" is the point the whole argument hinges on, a good number of the IXPs are owned or part-owned by companies that were lobbying to get rid of the FCC's "Neutrality" rules.
Also the wires connecting the IXPs are mostly owned by the companies that laid them down, only a 3rd are owned by the government.

That's a big problem in most of the US. Most customers don't have a choice of ISP's unless they're willing to settle for dial up speed. Broadband providers aren't that concerned with their quality of service knowing full well they're the only game in town.
Local governments don't make the problem any better. Building the infrastructure for broadband internet is fairly significant. Local governments impose all kinds of restrictions and requirements that force broadband providers to service areas that will not be profitable if they want access to areas that will be highly profitable.
There are certain queer times and occasions in this strange mixed affair we call life when a man takes this whole universe for a vast practical joke, though the wit thereof he but dimly discerns, and more than suspects that the joke is at nobody's expense but his own.

Nothing is stopping another company from stepping in and creating another IXP in a profitable city. The reason companies use certain IXPs is because its profitable to do so. If the IXP for instance forces everyone to payout unfairly to one of the companies connected, than it just means most of the IXPs customers will disconnect and either use the slower IP pathing or go with a competing IXP. This is why IXPs typically have rules against one of their customers charging extra to take on packets since they will lose the rest of their customers.
Second there are no net-neutrality rules in the US at all. For the better part of 2 decades, any company could pay to have their connections take priority, but for some reason no company ever has. This is because its a relatively stupid idea to pull off. Even when it was logical to do something like this in the era of 12K modems no company found it cost effective to gain more priority in networks. Now with speeds going to 100 mb/s and companies not able to tap into the full 1.5 mb/s, there really is no point.
Third, who do you think runs the fiber lines from city to city. That would be an enormous cost for any private company, and an absolute bureaucratic nightmare negotiating with each township, city, and federal land to dig a trench several hundred miles long. I'm sure there are companies who would do that and sell access to these lines, but the main reason for this connectivity is through the government's investments in linking towns. These lines are controlled by the FCC who makes their own rules to use their lines like a private company would. One of those is often the connecting company has to offer access for data transmission along their networks at no or reasonable costs.

Flor Hazel
The fishing business has brought happiness to Flor Hazel's family. Because of its profits, she has been able to support her family's needs. Being a good mother, Flor has always wanted to support her children in whatever career they would be taking to better their own personal life. The fishing business is her way of saving money to support the needs of her family, especially to pay for her six children's education until college.
Her husband's support of her fishing business is Flor Hazel's motivation to continue expanding her business despite the trials of poverty. Over time, she has been able to purchase a fishing boat for her husband to manage and use for fishing. Meanwhile, Flor Hazel is the one who sells his fish directly to people in local community and nearby town of Tobias Fornier, Antique.
Flor Hazel is requesting a loan from Kiva lenders to purchase an additional fishing boat to catch more fish to sell. This would help their business grow, and make more profit, which will enable her to support her ambition in life.

I'd take McCoy over Bradford, but I think both have their issues. Bradford strikes me as the type who relies a little too much on being the best player on the field and having the most talent around him.
That will be different this year and will be VERY different at the next level. I'm not sure he has the ability to succeed when he doesn't have the advantage of everyone around him being less talented than he or his teammates.
Colt is the opposite, he's less talented physically, but in terms of leadership and mental aptitude, I see him being much more prepared for the NFL. But I'm not sure he has the physical tools as other pro QBs. But that can be developed more than the mental side of the game.
However, I'm also in the camp the in spite of what some critics think, Tebow may be the best of the bunch. The kid is just a gamer and it has nothing to do with gimmick offenses or trick plays. He can't be stopped. And you can't tell me that guys like Shaun Hill, Kyle Orton, and Chad Pennington (just to name a few) have arms SO much better than his that they can hold down starting jobs in the NFL and yet someone with his skills has no shot.

To Brine or not to Brine? That is the question...
This is a blog post that I put up today, but thought I would bring it here, in its entirety to get some discussion going.
Brining is becoming more and more popular, particularly with poultry. There is little debate as to whether or not to brine a chicken or a turkey. Most people agree that it improves the flavor of the bird. But what about other meats? Pork or even beef? I recently did side by side, blind taste tests on both but will focus on the pork here, and in this case ribs
First a little about brining. What is a brine? In the simplest term its salt water. But doesnt salt dry things out? Normally it does, but in this case it does the exact opposite. See, the salt forces water out of the salt water solution and in a situation when that solution surrounds a piece of meat, the only place for the liquid to go is into the meat. So it makes meat juicier. Salt water also breaks down connective tissue and thus makes meat more tender. If you stopped there you would be ahead of most people. But theres one more step to take to another level. What if that fluid moving from the salt solution into the meat wasnt water but something like root beer, pumpkin ale, or apple cider? Then it also adds flavor.
To summarize, brining moisturizes, tenderizes and flavorizes the meat. Its hard to argue with this as these are facts, but still its something that is hotly debated. Many argue that there is no need to brine as the rub is all one needs to add flavor to meat. I agree that rub adds a lot of flavor. But that doesnt preclude a brine from adding flavor. Adding granulated garlic to ribs adds a lot of flavor, doesnt mean I shouldnt also add brown sugar or paprika or pepper or all three to add even more.
If you still dont believe me, then keep reading about the somewhat scientific experiment I did where I had 7 guys each taste two ribs, cooked identically except for one detail, one was brined. I didnt tell them until after they sampled which rib was brined.
First the brine
1 quart apple cider
2 tbsp minced garlic
1/4 cup table salt
10 turns black pepper
10 turns white pepper
The basic idea here is 1 gallon of fluid per cup of salt. This is plenty for 2-3 slabs of ribs. If you plan on doing more or less than that, just remember to keep the ratio of 1 gallon of water to 1 cup of salt. Get creative with the fluid. Ive used pomegranate, apple juice, sprite, root beer, and plain old water.
You can use whatever rub you want for this experiment as long as the rubs are identical. In this case I used my pumpkin rub.
1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tbsp granulated garlic
1 tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tbsp paprika
5 turns black pepper
5 turns white pepper
This is enough for a slab of ribs, if you want to make more, keep the ratio the same: 1 part each of pumpkin pie spice, granulated garlic and brown sugar to a half part paprika. No salt is listed in this rub as I will get to that later.
I had 7 guys coming over for this massive home tailgating session I did for the opening of the NFL season so I cut off the last few bones off a slab to make it only 8 ribs (one for each of my guests and one for me). You can see the small remainder of the slab on the left and me pointing to the 8 bone slab on the right:
I did the same thing with another similar slab of ribs for the brined slab.
For the 8 bone slab above, I applied the rub liberally the night before to both sides, always bone side first so the rub doesnt stick to the cutting board when I flip them over to rub the other side:
The natural concave of the ribs allows the rub to be elevated over the cutting board and not stick to it.
I placed the ribs in a ziplock bag.
I combined the brine ingredients and put the 8 bone slab and a couple other half slabs into the brine:
Heres a closeup of the rubbed ribs in the bag:
The next day, I removed the brined ribs from the bag and rinsed the brine off and patted them dry with a paper towel and applied the rub:
I added no salt to the ribs above as the brine handled that for me. For the ribs I rubbed the night before, I gave them a liberal coating of coarse salt before going on the grill manufacturer that shall not be named:
I went with the high heat method which is indirect grilling of the baby back ribs at 275-300 for two hours with pear wood.
Here are the ribs on the grill, the arrows indicating which two are part of the experiment:
After two hours I pulled the ribs, let them rest for about five minutes and sliced:
And then these guys tried one of each:
From left to right thats Brian, Arthur, David and Shane. The other three were Scott, Erik, and Roy (not pictured) as well as myself. Of the blind taste testers, the brined rib got all 7 votes as well as one from me, but I knew which was which.
How is the brined rib different? It has a certain sweetness that is not in the unbrined rib. Its got a couple more levels of flavor and is juicier. If you still have doubts, all you have to do is try this experiment yourself. You dont need to have a bunch of people do it blind. All you need is taste them yourself and you will never go back to rub only. This is the third time Ive done this blind experiment on others and have yet to have a single person prefer the unbrined rib.
I have never tried brining anything yet but it's on my agenda. I will try it first with a chicken. As for beef and pork, I'm not as likely to try it because I think it, as with marinades (which is basically the same thing as a brine) tends to change the flavor of those meats. In my humble and uneducated opinion, I believe that pork and beef stand well on their own without much help where chicken and turkey seem to benefit from some added flavor.
I expected more discussion on this. :shrug:
Ah well...
OK, I will take a stab at getting more discussion going.
Not to put to fine a point on it but brine is salt suspended in water. Marinade is a flavored liquid, which may or may not contain salt.
Brining makes the meat juicier. Marinade makes the meat more flavorful.
I think what you are describing is marinade.
Don't forget fish, brine them suckers too! especially salmon.
Copied from somewhere, probably here or someone's blog from here :-)
Brine For Oily Or Strong Tasting Fish
1 cup kosher salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 Tbs garlic powder
1 Tbs onion powder
2 quarts water
1 Fill a large container with 1/2 quart of warm water. Add ingredients. Mix thoroughly until well dissolved. Add the remaining 1 1/2 quarts of water.
2 Immerse prepared fish chunks, filets or small whole fish completely in brine solution. Refrigerate fish in brine solution. Brine chunks of fish of fish 1" thick for about 5 up to 8 hours, 1/2" thick for about 4 hours, and for thinner filets or pieces 2-3 hours.
3 After brining, always rinse your fish with plenty of fresh water. Pat the fish dry, and allow them to air dry for about 1 hour. This will cause a "pellicle" (a tacky glaze on the fish) to form indicating that it is ready for the drying and smoking process
I brine almost everything I smoke, and a lot of what I grill. Especially all wild game, I just don't like a strong wild game flavor, and it truly helps it out. But I also brine all pork, chicken, turkey.....never tried it with beef though, never thought beef needed any help. But I agree, it makes a big difference.
Very interesting. I've never considered brining ribs. I've only brined chicken and turkey. I will def have to give this a try. Thank you for the post! :thumb:
Great post. Glad to see someone try a side by side comparison. I am definitely in camp brine when it comes to poultry and lean cuts of pork. I'll have to try brining ribs sometime. A lot of times though its nice to keep prep to a minimum. I have done pork butts as well, but I usually don't feel the extra work pays off.
I do think brining makes a big difference. I have not tried brining beef as everything I have read and the chefs I have discussed it with do not recommend it.
to me, brining beef is a waste- you want some blood in the muscle it makes a lot of the flavor.that's why you never find "enhanced" beef in a store unless possibly a packer brisket or corned brisket.
brining ribs & then rubbing overnight definitely makes for a "hammy" rib in my experiences.
if you buy your avg. "enhanced in 12% solution" meats then they are in effect already brined.
when it comes to most poultry or pork, if all i can find is "enhanced in solution" products i give them a fresh water soak & change the water a couple times-just like you would w/ a regular brine.
disclaimer-these are just my personal experiences.
i have done this also, and the ribs do have a hammy taste and texture unless your brine is flavored like the above recipe. this is a good way to impart flavor and moisture into the cells not like a marinade that flavors the surface of the meat. i have done ribs numerous times. a good example is kosmo q pork soak mix with peach necter or aj. if you foil your ribs for texture and tenderness you really dont have to with brinned ribs. it does speed up the tenderness process because the ribs are steaming their self from the inside out. if you try this please start checking them earlier than your normal times. if you cook them low and slow you might not even have to spritz them. you will notice they have moisture on the surface most of the cook. experimenting is the key
GREAT post. It's kind of hard to argue whether brining helps or not, when you've had a blind taste test and 100% of the testers voted for the brined ribs! Not that I intended to argue the point. I think it's just plain science, brining that is. It's osmosis at work.
There have been a couple of comments about marinades, even that what you've used in your experiment was a marinade. I wholly disagree with this. Just to make sure I'm not crazy, I looked up both brine and marinade.
According to Webster's:
MARINADE: Mixtures of vinegar or wine and oil with various spices and seasonings; used for soaking foods before cooking.
BRINE: Water containing salts.
This reinforced what I thought I already knew about marinades....that they contain oil and vinegar. Now, I'm not sure about the science or reasoning for this, but what you have used was definitely NOT a marinade, but a brine since it contained no vinegar or oil.
IN MY OPINION marinades only really work for small cuts (steak, chops, chicken parts, etc). A marinade typically has very strong, intense flavors that only require a relatively short time to work, typically less than an hour. In fact, there are many 10 minute maridades out there. A brine, however, requires much more time to do it's magic. As I understand it, the salt literally does extract the moisture from the meat and THEN, by the basic law of equilibrium (sp?), since there is an absence of liquid in the meat, but it is completely surrounded by the brine, the liquid (containing salt and whatever other flavors are in it) is then forced back into the fibers of the meat, not only replacing the amount of liquid in the meat, but putting MORE moisture into it than was originally present. THEN, when cooked, the moisture remains in the meat.
Now, the only thing (IN MY OPINION) that is really up for debate, is whether the salt flavor is too intense. I propose that it has to do with not only personal taste and preference, but also the amount of salt in the brine. Most everyone will agree that the reason salt has been used for centuries in cooking is that it enhances the already present flavor of whatever it is added to. TOO MUCH salt, in any circumstance, just makes the food taste salty, so to me, it's about balance. Let's face it....many brine recipes even offer a sort of disclaimer. They say, "Don't brine for too long or the meat will be too salty or hammy."
There have been many comments made in past threads about brining that it makes a red meat taste "hammy". Personal preference aside, of course, I would propose that there was too much salt in the brine used or the meat was brined for too long. The perfect balance, then, can only really come from lots of practice and trial/error, which kind of sucks.
Others will argue that there's no need to brine meats with a lot of marbled fat, such as ribs or pork shoulder. They'll say that brining, while working well with lean meats such as chicken and pork loin, is just a waste on a pork shoulder roast that uses rendered fat as a flavor and moisture enhancer. While I personally think that brining can only help, I also understand this argument. The benefit may be negligible. To me, I like brining chickens and turkeys because it's really easy to overcook and dry out the birds. It's pretty tough to dry out and ruin a pork butt. Most every butt I've done turn out real juicy and flavorful.
Bottom line? For me.....given time and planning, I will ALWAYS brine poultry. Period. I have yet to try a pork shoulder or other red meat, but I cannot see why it wouldn't enhance the flavor if done properly.
Still, I appreciate your efforts here and posting the results. Again....a blind side-by-side taste test is pretty much the definitive contest on an issue like this.
That's my 2 cents.
......OK....I guess that was more like 3 or 4 cents...:roll::becky:
great post, very thorough test given your available resources. After reading this post I WILL TRY BRINING RIBS. Of course with the caveat that I will give it a try and if I like it, I'll keep doing it, and if I don't, I won't :) The beauty of cooking for ones self! Everyone has their own preferences with taste so everyone will have a slightly different experience. Just ask the comp cooks if they normally get identical feedback from six different judges sitting at a table lol. But again, excellent post.
To me, I only brine to help keep moisture in or very low fat meats (ie poultry and pork chops).
So it never dawned on me to use it on ribs.
I find a lot of the commerical rubs already too salty, so I would hesitate on brining ribs.
And yet, this thread has me rethinking and I have yet another experiment to try.
I like the idea of another subtle layer of flavor. And I have the feeling that the extra moisture might help achieve that elusive balance between having bite that will leave teeth marks, and yet will pull off the bone cleanly.
Just gives me another excuse to experiment

Additional Information
Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

This is more aimed towards the bay area.
Alright, San Francisco.... Critical Mass. I understand, the city isn't very good for cyclists. Actually, it's terrible for a a city that's trying to be so energy efficient. I understand your movement. Does blocking traffic once a month solve that? I don't think so, because people see it coming.... and it's gone the next day. Business as usual. IMO, it's more for fun than it is for some sort of movement. Not saying I'm right, that's just the way I see it.
Alright, Berkeley? We have bike lanes, bicycle boulevards, and pretty well lit streets. Why do we have a critical mass? I stay off Shattuck, San Pablo, University and sidewalks. Every other street is pretty damn biker friendly. So.... what exactly are you fighting for? Do you just want to block traffic? Yes, the drivers are downright terrible... blame the DMV for that.
Does anyone just ride their bike not only for commuting, but just because it's fun and enjoyable? No agenda, no politcal statement, no feeling to block traffic to get a point across to a community that bikes exist, but just biking because you actually like biking more than driving?
I dunno, I just have this feeling that even if a city were to surrender to a Critical Mass, the Critical Mass would still exist... just with a different agenda of some sort.
Drunken ramble... but just how I see it. Bicycle safety and education about the laws of riding and wearing helmets... hell yeah. All for that. Maybe Critical Mass in a way encourages people to join some sort of bicycling community. I'd be down with that movement... it's just advertised poorly.
Edit: I hit something funky and discontorted the text. Yes, I just used "discontorted" in a sentence.

FORT SUMNER, N.M. {AP} A battle is brewing over a small monument in northern New Mexico that recognizes one of the darkest periods in American Indian history.
Some say the 50-acre Fort Sumner State Monument doesn't explain well enough the story of the thousands of Indians who were driven from their home in the 1860s by U.S. Army forces.
Officials with the state Monument Division concede that the current facility is inadequate.
Officials for the last decade have tried to get enough money to build a new museum and interpretive center that would attempt to show a more balanced view of the Indian wars.
Supporters of the monument's expansion said they haven't given up hope on getting the $3.6 million for construction. The state Office of Cultural Affairs has ranked the Fort Sumner project No. 8 in priority.

Air Duct Cleaning
When cleaning your home, air ducts aren't always top-of-mind, but just like the rest of your house they can build up with dust and debris.
Blackmon Mooring recommends cleaning your air ducts regularly so you aren't breathing in that dirt and grime. Our crews use special equipment to reach throughout the vents, back to your main HVAC unit. No part of the duct system is left untouched, and all debris is extracted and collected back into our equipment for disposal.
Blackmon Mooring's air duct technicians will access each duct to ensure the entire system is clean. That is how committed we are to getting your home pollutant-free. Other air duct cleaners may only reach as far as their equipment will allow them to, which does not make for a thorough clean. Just cleaning the vents and ducts but ignoring the HVAC unit can leave your system cleaning incomplete. Be sure to ask our certified air duct cleaning professional about the advantages of cleaning all HVAC components.
Key Benefits of Air Duct/HVAC System Cleaning
Indoor air quality and energy savings are the two biggest concerns when it comes to air duct cleaning and maintenance. Serving as the lungs of your home, your HVAC system takes air out of the interior, but when the system starts getting clogged up with dirt, or its filters are in need of replacement, the air quality in your home will decrease as a result. After all, even during normal occupation of any home, between 20 and 40 pounds of dust are created each year. Additionally, other pollutants and allergens, such as animal dander, mold and other microorganisms also present a threat to your air quality, and a typical HVAC system has to recirculate the air upwards of five times per day.
Another key reason for having your air ducts professionally cleaned every few years is to maintain the energy efficiency of your HVAC system. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, up to forty percent of the amount of energy used for cooling or heating a home goes to waste, and this figure can quickly increase if your HVAC system is not operating at optimal condition. A clean system with new filters doesn't have to carry out as much work, meaning that less energy is consumed, leading to a more cost-effective home.
When to Have Your Air Ducts Cleaned
Although a light amount of everyday dirt, such as household dust, in your air ducts poses no significant threat, there will eventually come the time when you need to have them professionally cleaned. Following are some things to consider when deciding whether or not it is time to have your air ducts cleaned:
- The ducts are infested with bugs or vermin.
- The ducts are clogged up with dirt or debris to the extent that they end up getting released into the interior of your home.
- There is any visible growth of mold in or around your HVAC system.
- If your home has recently been renovated, there may be a buildup of pollutants in the duct system.
- If you find that your furniture and other surfaces in your home are collecting a lot more dust and dirt than usual.
Since conditions are different in every home, it may be hard to tell whether your air ducts need cleaning, but if anyone in your household starts suffering from allergies and other unexplained symptoms, it may be time to have your HVAC system checked by a qualified professional, particularly if it hasn't been tended to for a few years.
How Air Duct Cleaning Works
The air duct cleaning process involves several steps to ensure that the whole system is thoroughly cleaned:
- A pre-inspection to review the systems level of contamination to design the most appropriate and thorough cleaning and disinfectant procedure.
- Cleaning of the interior surfaces of the A/C unit and coil using specialized equipment.
- Cleaning of the blower unit, the supply and return registers, ducts and grills.
- Installation of a new air filter to help kill odors and maintain a cleaner, higher quality of air inside your home.
Our technicians start by cleaning the vents and register covers before using a dust sweeping machine to reach the very back of the ductwork. This allows us to remove things like dust mites, animal dander and other dirt that would otherwise be impossible to reach. We use a high-powered vacuum system to extract dust that gets trapped inside the equipment. Also, we can apply a disinfecting agent to treat for mold, fungi, mildew, bacteria and other organisms after cleaning the system's mechanical components.

If you disagree with anything that is written in your child's assessment, or if they have been refused services that they have asked for, you can make a complaint.
It is important to remember that if you do make a complaint, this won't affect or compromise the services that they already receive.
There are three main stages to making a complaint:
1. If you are unhappy you should first speak to your child's care manager and ask them to look into the situation.
2. If the care manager cannot help, you should put your complaint in writing and send it to social services. You should also keep a copy for yourself. You should receive a reply within three months.
3. If the problem has still not been solved, your complaint will go to a review. Here three people will discuss your complaint, and write to social services to tell them what they think. This should take about four weeks.
There are also two more serious circumstances in which you can make a complaint.
- Maladministration – If you think social services have handled an assessment badly, for example if they failed to follow proper procedure, or unreasonably delayed an assessment, you can contact your local government ombudsmen, or the Public Services Ombudsman in Wales.
- Unlawful behaviour – If you think social services have acted unlawfully, for example if they have refused to carry out an assessment or have failed to reach a decision, you should seek legal advice immediately, especially if you or the person you care for are in urgent need of services.
Making a complaint can be a complicated process, so it is a good idea to get professional help at this stage. You may want to get independent support from an advocate, or from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau. You can also call the Learning Disability Helpline on 0808 800 1111.
What next?
- Contact your local authority to find out about their complaints procedure.
- Read the step-by-step guide to making a complaint on the Carers UK website
- Get advice from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau
- If you live in England, contact the local government ombudsmen advice line on 0845 6021983 (Monday to Friday 9am to 4pm)
- If you live in Wales, visit the Public Services Ombudsman website or call 0845 601 0987 (local rate).

I had 30 radiation treatments for a tumor in my neck, which ended 6 weeks ago. Since that time, my hearing has gotten worse and I had to have a tube inserted to drain that ear. Also, I still have ulcers in my mouth, which come and go. One doctors told me I would be fine by now - another tells me it is a rebound effect. Has anyone had this problem and how long did it take to resolve itself. I don't know what is worse -- the muted hearing or the mouth ulcers? No improvement has come and I am wondering if I will be partially deaf forever? No doctor wants to touch the answer to that question. Any help in what to expect would be desperately appreciated. Thanks, Karen
Apr 23, 2004 - 5:37 pm
During and after radiation, my hearing was the other way. Any noise above a whisper bothered me. This went away over time, maybe 2 or 3 months. I don't know if it was a side effect of just the radiation or a combo of the radiation and chemo.
As far as the mouth ulcers, those took several months to go away. Foods high in sodium and spicy foods bothered them the most. So I would stick with relatively low sodium (salt) foods to see if eating is any better.
Apr 27, 2004 - 12:38 pm
I had cancer 6 years ago and had tubes placed in both ears 5 1/2 yrs ago. I have had them replaced a few times (they can fall out depending on the type) Did your ENT check your hearing after the tubes were put in. I can usually tell there is dramatic improvement right away. Occassionally (the last few day most recently) I have some fluid build up that makes it hard to hear. It will last a few days (with draining) and then go away. If is persist or hurts I'll see the ENT and get ear drops (antibiotics) to clear it up.

nckaren.......I had 9 weeks of radiation; will be 6 years ago this Fall. We all seem to have different problems from the radiation. I had no ear problems, but lots of mouth and throat issues. It is so destructive! amr2662 is right about recovery taking a long time. It took me over two years to gain back the 40 pounds I lost w/ the treatments. Be patient; things will get better, but it will surely take some time. I will never be without some problems caused by my radiation, but those problems are quite managable. The big issue is getting rid of the cancer. Things will get better for you. I wish you the best. Steve
May 24, 2004 - 10:58 pm
I have a friend that I met here at Cancer Survivors network who has the same identical cancer as I. He said that after he was radiated, his hearing was really bad. I believe that it took him about 7 to 8 months for that problem to correct itself. You may visit my website at Penny2001 here on the network. You have thrush mouth ( yeast infection ). It comes and goes many times during the radiation process. It has been 3 years for me, and still, once in awhile, I will get it. You have to take diflucan ( not sure of the spelling ), but your doctor will know what to give you. Usually after only 4 pills, it will go away.
Aug 25, 2004 - 1:55 pm
What is the "magic mouthwash" you are refering to. My husband is in the middle of his radiation treatment and is having lots of mouth sores. Thanks for the info.
Sep 11, 2004 - 9:01 am
Some doctors and dentists call it magic swizzle. It really works, I work for a dentist we use it all the time for mouth ulcers!Good luck & God bless
Mar 07, 2013 - 10:13 pm
I as well have had problems with my hearing either being muted or at times super sensitive. I get the darn mouth blisters or now I have a mouth that feels on fire after or during eating. Ugh I do wish this part would get better. I was eating more but have gone back to drinking protien drinks again. I think it is hard for doctors to give a time frame on the healing part. Things are different for everyone and we won't get the answers to that unfortunately. Sondra

NEW YORK (AP) — Hickory just might like the big-city life.
A Scottish deerhound that loves to chase deer and rabbits on a 50-acre farm in Virginia did more than fine at Madison Square Garden this week, winning best in show at the Westminster Kennel Club on Tuesday night and the title of America's top dog.
"She's not used to lights, camera and noise," handler Angela Lloyd said.
Big crowd shows up for Isotopes job fair
More than 1,000 jobseekers were at Isotopes Park in Albuquerque Saturday for the Isotopes' annual job fair.
The Isotopes, the top farm club of the Los Angeles Dodgers, hosted their ninth annual fair, seeking seasonal, game-day employees for the 2011 season.
The team said in a press release all employees who were interviewed will be contacted within two weeks by the team or Ovations Food Service. Those who were unable to attend the job fair can still apply for positions at Isotopes Park.
SANTA FE — A 9-0 run spanning nearly four minutes set the tone early for the Los Alamos Hilltopper girls basketball team Tuesday.
In its final regular season District 2AAAA contest, the Hilltoppers held the Capital Jaguars to just two points in the opening quarter and just four in the final quarter to win going away, 52-28 at Edward Ortiz Gymnasium.
Los Alamos never trailed in the game, scoring early and often in the first quarter while confounding the Capital offense for most of the contest.
PHOENIX (AP) — Henry Morello prayed to Saint Anthony, the patron saint of lost things. But as the 84-year-old spent a fifth night stuck in a ditch in the Arizona desert, he started to lose hope.
"My phone went dead, my battery went dead, and I went dead," Morello said.
WASHINGTON (AP) — A showdown looming, Defense Secretary Robert Gates urged Congress to cancel a costly alternative engine for the Pentagon's next-generation fighter jet Wednesday and vowed to explore "all available legal options" to stop production if lawmakers won't.
"The president, the military services and I continue to oppose this extra engine," Gates said in testimony before the House Armed services Committee.
FEASTERVILLE, Pa. (AP) — A high school English teacher in suburban Philadelphia who was suspended for a profanity-laced blog in which she called her young charges "disengaged, lazy whiners" is driving a sensation by daring to ask: Why are today's students unmotivated — and what's wrong with calling them out?
NEW YORK (AP) — Strong earnings results and another round of corporate deals led stocks higher Wednesday.
Family Dollar rose 24 percent in early trading after activist investor Nelson Peltz's firm offered to pay up to $60 a share to take the discount retailer private. That was a 36 percent premium from Tuesday's closing price. Family Dollar rose the most of any stock in the Standard & Poor's 500 index.
WASHINGTON (AP) — More than a dozen U.S. veterans who say they were raped or assaulted by comrades filed a class-action suit in federal court Tuesday attempting to force the Pentagon to change how it handles such cases.
The current and former service members — 15 women and two men — describe circumstances in which servicemen allegedly got away with rape and other sexual abuse while their victims were ordered to continue to serve with them.
MANAMA, Bahrain (AP) — Protesters demanding sweeping political reforms from Bahrain's rulers held their ground Wednesday in an Egypt-style occupation of the capital's landmark square, staging a third day of demonstrations that have brought unprecedented pressure in one of Washington's most strategic allies in the Gulf.
NEW YORK (AP) — Bookseller Borders, which helped pioneer superstores that put countless mom-and-pop bookshops out of business, filed for bankruptcy protection Tuesday, sunk by crushing debt and sluggishness in adapting to a rapidly changing industry.
The 40-year-old company plans to close about 200 of its 642 stores over the next few weeks. All of the stores closed will be superstores, Borders spokeswoman Mary Davis said. The company also operates smaller Waldenbooks and Borders Express stores.

Temps got down to 30F for my ride in this morning. Head, face, upper body were all nice and cozy. Two problem areas I had were feet (I didn't use the booties, I guess still in denial about winter coming) and my shorts. I wear regular spandex bike shorts with leg warmers. The leg warmers did fine, but the bike shorts clearly didn't keep my upper thighs warm.
Anyone have recommendations for long pants to go over bike shorts, for temps between 0F and 35F? (It's a long ride, I'm not giving up the bike shorts, and I don't want to start any arguments over bike shorts versus regular shorts.) Also, any recommendations for SPD compatible winter boots for same temp range? (I really don't like the over-shoe boots).

I wouldn't say the Burgmans (Burgmen?) are cheap. I paid 4150 2 years ago for my 400 K8 and have just this week bought a 650 ALO which cost me just over 8 grand.
The downside is its not a motorbike.
The upside is its not a motorbike. Electric windscreen, electric heated grips and seats, electric mirrors, plenty of storage, plenty of weather protection. And none of that cocking your leg over it or changing gears up and dowen all the time.
I commute every Monday and Friday 140 miles each way and when I get off the other end I don't have a stiff back, nor do I get covered in road muck.
Brilliant machine, even though its not a motorbike.

I have a server-config Mac mini set up at home. When I had Snow Leopard on it, I had started setting up a mail server, but left it in a half-configured state of some kind. I've since upgraded to Lion. The mail server seems to be working fine; that is, I can send and receive mail, but my admin account is getting a copy of every message received by the mail server. I do remember checking a box in Snow Leopard server admin that seemed to be intended to set up this behaviour. Now that the server is running though, I'd like to disable it. How can I turn off this behaviour in Lion Server? The check box to handle it isn't in the Lion server admin app.
I'll give you two choices:
First, you can edit the file /etc/postfix/main.cf, and delete the line that starts "always_bcc=". You'll need root access to edit it; if you're comfortable using a command-line editor like vi or nano, you can just use that with
Second, you can install the Server Admin Tools (10.7.2 version is here). It includes Server Admin, which includes advanced mail server settings, like enabling/disabling the always_bcc option.
