Calor Gas Vs Ashp Vs Oil Central Heating
Posted 17 November 2012 - 07:41 AM
Hoping we may have a few people on the forum who have experience of all of these types of heating.
I have bought a 1960's bungalow that currently has a tired old oil heating system with only partial centrl heating in the house. Effectively, it needs a total overhaul.
The bungalow is not on mains gas.
I see I have three viable options:
calor gas - can then have a combi and get a tank put in the back garden. Gives all the pros of mains gas but is msot likely the most expensive. That worries me quite a lot as everywhere i go people say "Calor gas? that's expensive..." been told even having a big tank the price is the same as mall bottles?
oil - I could just replace with a new oil system. But again this could well be quite expensive in the long run etc. Plus the oil tanks do get targeted for theft.
air source heat pump - Should be cheaper than the above two if set up right. Ideally you need to use under floor heating systems. Would still need a water tank and would no doubt have to top it up with elec heating for the water temp. Problem with this system is more expensive than the others to buy and get installed. When it gets really cold can be a problem Like under -10 C.
I rally don't know which way to go with it all. I quite like the idea of the heat pump especially if I could put some solar panels on the roof to supplement the electric use. Plus there are numerous government grants. But it would still cost me more I think, but in the long run cheaper.
I am planning on sorting out some cavity wall insulation and more in the loft. Plus I am building an extension for a bigger lounge so this will be further insulated with a log burner in there too. The floors are all solid concrete so this is better for under floor heating too I believe?
Basically, I have been on the web but I just cannot find out or work out what will be best for me. I have got the calor man coming on the 23rd for a quote and talk through the options plus i am going to arrange a local renewable energy person for a quote on the heat pump etc.
HPC help me with some wisdom.

Why don't you go with a system from a back boiler on the wood burner? I think A J Wells does one.
Fine if you are in a remote location but wood fired stoves with back boilers are very smokey as the circulating water cools the combustion chamber thus resulting in more smoke. If other houses nearby expect complaints!
To the OP. You could consider a wood burning stove. For hot water an oversized solar water heating system with economy 7 back up for winter time. Perhaps also install a small ASHP as back up.
Before doing all of this go insulation, insulation, insulation.

One of these should deliver about 3200kwh of hot water per year. You would also want a decent size hot water cyclinder - at least 150 litres and a heat dump - ie small radiator.

Especially as the heating oil market is a jungle.
Solar water heater is also likely to pay for itself...
Posted 17 November 2012 - 12:09 PM
We needed to change our boiler some years ago, but stayed with oil. It is expensive, but you curtail the cost by having good insulation. Is your existing tank in good order? That will save you quite a bit of cost if its OK.
I also installed a solar hot water array, similar to the one linked to by Kurt. It preheats our hot water, but the effectiveness is reduced by the overnight heat loss from the hot water tanks. You need VERY well insulated tanks if you want to maximise the use of the array.
i also have a small PV array (850 Watts) charging batteries - in the summer it can provide all our electricity in the daytimes via an inverter (not grid-tied). More importantly, it keeps the solar hot water alive in power cuts, and also the central heating if we need it.

Air Source Heat Pump
- When correctly installed a heat pump will offer the lowest unit cost heating solution
- No need for annual maintenance
- When installed and specified incorrectly you can end up with very high heating bills. Heat pumps can only raise the system water flow temperature by 30ºC or so before becoming inefficient unlike a boiler. If the heat pump cannot provide enough heat then an immersion heater will kick in and you will end up with high bills. See this example regarding Nibe Heat Pumps.
- Expensive to install about £10K typicallly. You will need to improve the insulation in the property. You will need to install underfloor heating or larger radiators. This is because of the lower flow temperatures
- They need to be run longer at lower temperatures than a boiler.
- If you switch the heat pump off the house will take a long time to warm up.
- Maintenance is expensive as it requires refrigeration expertise.
- They need a reliable electricity supply.
- They are not very good at heating up hot water. Take long time/expensive.
- Pumps supplied by the non-major brands are unreliable.
- They are expensive to run in cold weather. This is due to energy being required to defrost the coil unit.
LPG Boiler
- Cheapest installation cost. £1.5K if simple
- LPG supplier may do deal to install the boiler and tank. (however, you'll pay with a higher tank rental or unit cost.)
- Most reliable if you pick a good brand. Worcester or Vaillant.
- Takes up smallest amount of space in house
- Works well in cold weather.
- No need to improve insulation or radiators. (Although it is a good idea to do this if you've the budget)
- Low cost maintenance
- Highest unit fuel cost
- Need to pay for tank through rental or fuel price
- Long contracts with LPG suppliers
Oil Boiler
- Low installation cost (£2K if straight replacement)
- Can shop around for fuel
- Lowest fuel cost per KwH. (a heat pump needs to be well installed and specified to beat this.)
- Works well in cold weather.
- No need to improve insulation or radiators. (Although it is a good idea to do this if you've the budget)
- Last forever.
- Reliable if choose Worcester
- Easy to maintain
- May need to replace oil tank if not up to current regs
- Needs an annual service
- Fuel price can shut through the roof when we get a cold spot
- Risk of fuel getting nicked.

Remove all props, subsidies, tax incentives, help to whatever, QE, and there will cease to be a housing crisis.

Stoves - Only economical if you have your own wood source. They cost £1000s to install and solid fuel is a colossal faff.
LPG - Massively expensive. At the mercy of cartels.
Oil - Will get nicked by pikeys.
Have you considered bog standard electric convection heaters? Yes, they're expensive to run but you'll save a fortune on engineers and plumbers when things go wrong and you'll never end up sitting in the cold for days on end waiting for the stuffing "emergency" response engineers to bother to fix the problem, as I am doing now.

As to gas and oil, having lived a fair part of my life in England with gas boilers, and a fair part in Ireland with oil boilers I can say that I have seen very few gas boilers give much trouble and haven't seen any totally trouble free oil boilers. In either case the fuel supplier has you by the short and curleys. If you can, solar water heating seems to make a lot of sense.
As someone, may have been Kurt again, suggested on another thread, combine solar water heating with a heat store and a heat pump. Would seem to make a lot of sense.
To me, an air source heat pump seems to be a pretty complex and expensive way of reversing the losses in turning oil or gas into electricity to use for heating as opposed to using the oil or gas to generate the heat directly. You need to look at the COP and the price per BTU (or whatever unit you choose to work in) of electricity Vs the price per BTU of oil or gas allowing for the boiler (in)efficiency.

It's pretty easy to configure under most Linux distros these days.
Some hints I've found:
Here's my XF86Config, though these differ easily.. This works for me with XFree86 4.0.2.
The LCD cannot go over 1024x768, but it's an ATI Mach64 LB controller.
I got mine in the UK from ajp.co.uk - they're pretty lame, but they do acknowledge Linux as an OS, which they claim to support (though they don't seem to know much about). Looks like they've updated their site, and offer BIOS downloads. The Drivers link (as at 30 Mar 2002) offers no links for the 8500C, but there you go ... I don't know what I'd expect; Linux supports everything in the laptop already.
I'm not sure what the story is with video in/out... under Windows, the ATI software can grab video to a weirdly formatted AVI file, but I've not tried anything else with regard to this feature of the laptop.
I find that the 128Mb Celeron 433MHz configuration of the laptop doesn't suit huge desktops like KDE and GNOME all that well; I use Linux from Scratch (Used RedHat 7.2 as a donor distribution) and IceWM as a Window Manager, which offers everything KDE offers, as far as I'm concerned. You are welcome to view my icewm config files.
Update July 2004: For the past few years, this monster has (with 64Mb RAM) been acting excellently as a firewall, with a 3COM 3c59x PCMCIA card connected to my internal 10Mbps LAN. It uses my SpeedTouchConf driver to configure the crappy Alcatel modem under any Linux distribution I can get to run on it (though recent distro's, like SuSE 9.1, Mandrake 10, etc, simply won't install on a 64Mb machine (it donated the other 64Mb to a twin, which is now unused).

A synonym for large (sometimes excessively large) breasts. A clever code word when in the presence of ignorant females--by switching the "b" of "big" and the "t" of "titties," one can now publicly state that a given female (or male for that matter) has Tigo Bitties (Big ol' Titties).

Now that I've got your attention, I'd like to comment on the recent day-long meeting in Washington, D.C., facilitated by our friends at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The "seat belt summit," as it's been dubbed, certainly didn't settle anything. It allowed for the airing of divergent viewpoints on the matter of improving occupant crash protection in school buses, but it didn't provide a verdict.
It promised much, however. According to NHTSA officials, the agency is going to publish a proposed rulemaking on improvement of school bus crash protection by early next year (see News Alert). This likely will launch an earnest effort to provide school bus operators with national guidelines for the implementation and use of three-point systems.
Texas turns the corner
I spoke out about this topic in my January 2007 editorial, "Clinging to the Past?" And I haven't changed my mind. I believe that three-point belt systems will become the industry standard in the next 10 years.
As you probably know, Texas recently joined California in mandating three-point restraint systems on all new school buses.
In the next year or so, I'm sure other states will follow the lead of Texas and California, two of the most populous and influential states in the country. After that, a domino effect will begin, and other states will follow suit. Why? Liability concerns are one reason.
Imagine you're a school district in Louisiana. One of your buses crashes, and a student is ejected and dies. Lawyers for the family of that student will need to look no farther than an adjoining state, Texas, for evidence that some states require new school buses to have three-point belts. That's a powerful argument in favor of the plaintiff and puts a lot of pressure on the school district to explain why it didn't equip its buses with a similar type of active restraint.
Now that the major manufacturers offer three-point restraint systems on their buses, large and small, there's no real excuse for a school bus operator not to have them installed in their vehicles. Yes, they can always argue that they're expensive and reduce capacity, but I don't think a jury is going to look favorably on these arguments when a child's life has been lost and his or her grieving family is looking on. Do you?
Complacency can be dangerous
But it's more than just a liability issue. This industry's longstanding argument about the effectiveness of compartmentalization has the tired ring of complacency: "It ain't broke, so why fix it?" Why? Because the highways are growing ever more dangerous, with inattentive motorists; bigger, heavier cars and trucks; and a decaying infrastructure that makes roads harder to safely navigate. We need to respond to these challenges with more than the status quo.
Our school buses are extremely safe, yes, but they can be safer. I believe three-point restraints are eventually going to be required nationwide, either through state action or federal intervention. Parents and schools will soon be demanding them.
Compartmentalization is a great passenger safety system; adding three-point belts will only make it safer.

Twitching marabou, zonker strip, and hoochie-skirted jigs for fall coho has proven to be a deadly technique on the rivers of Western Washington for fickle, lock-jawed silvers. 1/8 to as large as 1/2 ounce jigs in sizes 1/0 and 2/0 are optimal and effective colors span the spectrum. When most other techniques fail to draw the attention of silver salmon the jig twitching method will usually grab the eye of wary coho.
Unlike fishing jigs under a float where the current imparts all the action to the jig, in "twitching" the motion of the rod gives the jig its action. There's no float, either, just you, your rod, and a small jig. A simple flick of the wrist is all that's necessary to make the jig dance and drive fish into striking. After each twitch of the wrist a small amount of line is reeled in to keep slack out of the line and the action is repeated over again all the way back to the boat or shore.
The twitch itself is perhaps the most important aspect of this technique and too long a stroke on the rod will usually produce less strikes than a short, compact twitch. Moving the jig vertically anywhere from 6" to 18" is ideal.
A medium to fast action spinning rod is ideal for this method, matched with the appropriate spinning reel and 8 to 12 lb mainline. For twitching jigs in deeper water with heavier current it's best to run a leader of lighter test to a small barrel swivel and then apply however many split shot are necessary to get the jig to the desired depth. The barrel swivel will keep the split shot from sliding down the line.
Though color isn't as important as presentation, some colors that have been super effective for me over the years are black, purple, cerise, pink, or orange. They've been known to hit just about any color, however, and mixing colors can often produce strikes.
Another deadly addition to the jig is an 18 count sand shrimp tail. If tying your own jigs or buying them at the store it's important that the jigs have enough marabou or rabbit strip tied in to give them sufficient action. Jigs with more material in the body and a tail take on a life of their own in the water and impart much more action than a short jig with less material.
Jigs for fall falmon are best fished in areas with very low current or what's often referred to as "frog water". Side channels or low gradient, deep pools, where salmon congregate are great places to start. Current seams and drop offs with heavier current can be fished by using the split shot rig mentioned above.
Jump on over to the VIDEO page to watch Forks, Washington guide Bob Kratzer demonstrate how to properly fish a jig for fall salmon on the Olympic Peninsula. Add this technique to your bag of tricks for catching fall salmon on the Pacific Northwest rivers.

Glenn McConnell left the College of Charleston after graduating in 1969, but he's returning to campus Tuesday as the school's president.
Glenn McConnell
Age: 66
Hometown: Charleston
Family: Single
Previous occupations: S.C. lieutenant governor, former state senator and president pro tempore of the Senate, retired attorney and business owner
Education: College of Charleston, bachelor's degree in political science in 1969; University of South Carolina, law degree in 1972
Hobbies: Personal watercraft riding, Civil War re-enacting, snow skiing
He has strong support among members of the school's Board of Trustees, but he'll also face many challenges over the next few years. Despite a rocky hiring process, the former lieutenant governor has said he's ready to hit the ground running. Here's a few things you need to know about him and what comes next.
Why was he selected?
Greg Padgett, chairman of the college's Board of Trustees, said the board chose McConnell because he has decades of experience as a state leader. And "McConnell has shown he's a visionary leader," Padgett has said.
The board hired him, despite strong opposition from faculty members, some students and the local, state and national branches of the NAACP.
McConnell, 66, had many strong supporters on the board and in the state Legislature, where he previously served in the Senate for 32 years, the last 11 as president pro tempore. In that role, he built up a great deal of goodwill, and earned a reputation for being able to work well with other legislators across party and racial lines.
State Rep. Jim Merrill, R-Charleston, has said McConnell will be able leverage his experience in the Senate to forge a strong relationships between the college and the General Assembly. "The last few presidents have not been very attuned to the General Assembly and the politics of the state," he said.
State Sen. Larry Grooms, R-Charleston, a colleague and personal friend of McConnell, said, "As long as they give him a chance, they'll see what a gem they have as president."
Why was his hiring so controversial?
McConnell faced strong opposition at the college because he had no academic experience, and because some people thought his support of flying the Confederate battle flag on Statehouse grounds and participating in Civil War re-enactments might make it more difficult for the school to recruit minority students, especially black students.
That's important because only 6 percent of the college's students are black, while blacks make up about 30 percent of the state's population.
The percentage of minority students enrolled at the college is one of the lowest among the state's higher education institutions. School leaders have been trying to turn that around in recent years, but it's slow work.
Opponents also thought state legislators, with close ties to McConnell, may have pressured board members to hire him.
What will he bring to the job?
Supporters say McConnell is fair and talented and will win over opponents when they begin working with him. During his decades in the Legislature, he was able to build coalitions across racial and party lines.
Grooms said McConnell is a brilliant strategist who always is looking four or five steps ahead. He will use that skill to improve the college.
McConnell also has the state-level experience to help the college expand to a comprehensive research university that offers doctoral degrees needed by area businesses.
What challenges does he face?
McConnell first will have to win over faculty members and students who were opposed to his hiring.
He also will have to overcome resistance among some legislators to the college expanding to become a comprehensive research university, or get approval from the state's Commission on Higher Education to move forward with the plan.
He will be expected to increase minority enrollment, which has proved to be a tough job in the past.
And, like other college presidents statewide, he will have to find creative ways to bring in more money.

LATEST GIG: Stars as a married man with a mysterious past (and a taste for brunettes) on AMC's acclaimed series
• THOSE WERE THE DAYS: Set in 1960, Mad Men harkens back to an era of three–martini lunches and wide–eyed secretaries. Hamm's character, New York City advertising hotshot Don Draper, and his colleagues take full advantage of both. "Men absolutely had it better" back then, Hamm says with a laugh. "The dream of success and happiness was coined by these guys. If you drive this car, smoke this cigarette or use this cologne, you will be happy. It was a sexy and alluring time. It was like being a kid in a candy shop if you were a white Anglo male."
• MAKING AN HONEST MAN OUT OF HIM: Unlike his philandering counterpart, Hamm's a one-woman man. "I've been with the same girl for 10 years," he says: actress Jennifer Westfeldt (Notes from the Underbelly), 37. "We're incredibly happy. We have a great life together, a beautiful dog, a house. I'm a very lucky guy." Marriage? "We'll cross that bridge when it comes up ... and I can't say it hasn't come up!"
• SMOKING SECTION: On the show, everybody smokes–everywhere. "I quit smoking when I was 24," Hamm says. "It's glamorous on film, but it's not glamorous waking up and smelling like an ashtray." On-set, "There's no nicotine in what we're smoking. It's herbal. The taste is a cross between lawn clippings, mint and pot."

WARREN -- Despite media reports that a wild Sunday morning shooting resulted from a fight at the Sunset Lounge, police said they do not believe the controversial business is connected to the episode.
Reginald F. Baldwin, 21, and Dale A. Hatch, 25, both of Detroit, have been booked into the Trumbull County Jail on felonious assault charges. They are scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday.
According to reports, Marco Dukes, 32, 866 Swallow St., died Sunday after being transported by helicopter to a Cleveland hospital.
Another man, Larry Smith, 29, 2305 Jackson St., S.W., Warren, was also shot. He remains in Trumbull Memorial Hospital.
Warren police Sgt. Jeff Cole, department spokesman, said police are still trying to put the pieces together and to determine a motive for the shooting. This morning he repeated what several Warren detectives said on Sunday, that the feud did not originate at the Sunset Lounge.
Witnesses said a large crowd was milling about outside the Sunset, at the corner of East Market St. and Elm Road, shortly before the shooting. Local media outlets connected the lounge to the shooting.
The Sunset entered the news in June when Trumbull County Common Pleas Court Judge W. Wyatt McKay sentenced LaShawn Ziegler to seven days in jail for violating his parole terms, which stipulate that he never enter the premises of a liquor establishment. The Sunset opened in May.
Two years ago, Ziegler was sentenced to five years' probation, ordered to pay $5,000 in fines and forfeit more than $13,000 after pleading guilty to nine felony counts in connection with automobile fraud and illegal drugs.
City officials in April 2008 boarded up Ziegler's Benji Brown's, a North Park Avenue bar and later an after-hours club, labeling the site a nuisance. A lawsuit against city officials over the after-hours club is pending with another judge in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court.
Ziegler was also the past owner of the now-closed 77 Soul on Youngstown Road that became notorious for frequent visits by police. The club was ordered closed by city officials in 2004, for improper usage.
On Sunday, officers said, more that 40 shots were fired on Elm Court between Market and High streets. Police recovered numerous shell casings in a parking lot behind a daycare in that area and the windows of a building, occupied by several people including children at the time, were shot at.

Ancestral Appetites: Food in Prehistoryby Kristen J. Gremillion
This book explores the relationship between prehistoric people and their food - what they ate, why they ate it and how researchers have pieced together the story of past foodways from material traces. Contemporary human food traditions encompass a seemingly infinite variety, but all are essentially strategies for meeting basic nutritional needs developed over millions of years. Humans are designed by evolution to adjust our feeding behaviour and food technology to meet the demands of a wide range of environments through a combination of social and experiential learning. In this book, Kristen J. Gremillion demonstrates how these evolutionary processes have shaped the diversification of human diet over several million years of prehistory. She draws on evidence extracted from the material remains that provide the only direct evidence of how people procured, prepared, presented and consumed food in prehistoric times.

These are some quotes after game 3 at the Palace last night.
May 25, Detroit Free Press: Celtics forward Paul Pierce: "I think the loss rejuvenated us. We really wanted to come out and get this one."
Celtics coach Doc Rivers, asked about his team's health: "Pretty good. (Bill) Belichick told us not to talk about injuries anymore."
Pistons' Rodney Stuckey: "First of all, we can't let a team start out with two straight dunks. That gives them momentum right there. We didn't give no effort at all starting the game and that killed us. Trying to come back against a team like this is very difficult because they play really good defense as well. We just lost, point blank."
You have to love a rookie that will call out his teammates for lack of effort in the playoffs.
Boston columnist Tony Massarotti of the Boston Herald:
"I think the loss (in Game 2) rejuvenated us," Pierce said. "We were upset about giving up the homecourt. Some way, somehow, we were going to come out and get this win."
So they did it the old-fashioned way.
They wanted it more.
And they ripped the Pistons' lips off.
They ripped the Pistons lips off? Wow. That's a phrase that isn't heard that much.
"Chauncey Billups, if you told me he was injured, I wouldn't know," Celtics forward Kevin Garnett said. "How hard he's coming off pick and rolls, the other night he was stroking threes. He had his one-on-one game going. Paul can tell you this, probably one of the best one-on-one and one of the strongest point guards in this league."
"I don't think anybody is 100 percent at this point. Only he knows how his health is, but for the most part, as the opposing team watching him, he doesn't look too injured."
"Rodney Stuckey's performance was unbelievable."
"He(Stuckey) should have been out there until he got tired," Billups said. "It wasn't like I was lighting it up."

Business Cycle Fluctuations, Large Shocks, and Development Aid: New Evidence
Camelia Minoiu
International Monetary Fund (IMF)
Luis-Felipe Zanna
International Monetary Fund (IMF)
Era Dabla-Norris
International Monetary Fund (IMF)
October 2010
IMF Working Paper No. 10/240
We examine the cyclical properties of development aid using bilateral data for 22 donors and over 100 recipients during 1970-2005. We find that bilateral aid flows are on average procyclical with respect to business cycles in donor and recipient countries. However, they become countercyclical when recipient countries face large adverse shocks to the terms-of-trade or growth collapses-thus playing an important cushioning role. Aid outlays contract sharply during severe donor economic downturns; this effect is magnified by higher public debt levels. Additionally, bilateral aid flows are higher in the presence of IMF programs and are more countercyclical for recipient countries with stronger institutions.

Checklist: 9 tasks that will get you ready for ICD-10 implementation
If you're trying to figure out how to start planning ICD-10 implementation, there are plenty of resources to help.
Hugh Kelly rounded up the "The 5 ICD-10 tasks you should have done by now" for Government Health IT. It's based upon the American Health Information Management Association's (AHIMA) ICD-10-CM/PCS Transition: Planning & Preparation Checklist. While the checklist is built for large healthcare providers such as hospitals, it still has relevance for smaller medical practices.
In that spirit, here's this list from Pat Schmitter's webinar, "Are you ready for ICD-10?". It is similar to the AHIMA checklist so it's not better. I'm offering it as another way to give you some sense of the planning needed.
"Identify Current Systems and Work Processes"
Create an inventory of everywhere your ICD-9 codes are used. Places such as:
- Paper and electronic medical records
- Clinical documentation
- Superbills
- All internal and external reporting
- Contracts
While you're at it, look at who is responsible for all those documents and processes. Those people will need training too.
"Communicate with Practice Management System Vendor"
First thing, find out if regulatory updates are are part of the maintenance they will perform. Next, Schmitter says to ask these questions:
- Can the current system accommodate the ICD-10 data format? (The answer should be yes if it's HIPAA 5010 compliant)
- Can the vendor upgrade the current system?
- Will the vendor charge for the upgrade?
- When will the upgrades be ready?
- When will the upgrades be completed?
[See also: Choosing Healthcare Vendors: Four things healthcare providers and payers need to consider]
"Communicate with Your Billing Service, Clearinghouse and Payers"
Some questions to ask:
- Are they upgrading their systems?
- When will their upgrades be complete?
- When can you start testing claims and other transactions with ICD-10 codes?
"Communicate with Your Payers about Your Contracts"
Some payers are rewriting their contracts. For example, they may pay differently - or require - the highest specificity be reported in ICD-10 coding. Payers also may change payer medical review, auditing and coverage.
"Identify Changes to Practice Work Flow and Business Processes"
That inventory in step 1 is going to come in handy. That's going to help you figure out what needs to change after Oct. 1, 2013.
"Identify Staff Training Needs"
Just about everyone needs some sort of training. Yes, your medical coders need the most. But your clinical staff needs to understand ICD-10 coding too. And codes aren't the only thing that staff members need to know. They need proper training on workflow changes. Especially if this means you got new or upgraded systems.
[See also: ICD-10 Training: Reducing education costs for medical coders]
"Test - Test - Test"
Everyone who receives claims, bills and reports needs to schedule testing with your practice. Remember you won't be the only one trying to get their time and attention. Many other healthcare procrastinators will be bidding for time and services.
"Budget for Implementation Costs"
Practices need to account for more than just the cost of new and/or upgraded systems:
- Training and continuing education
- Workflow changes
- Reimbursement delays
Start Now
OK, that's my step. There's more to this than just selecting software. Training and testing are going to take more time than you want. So the longer you take to get to those steps, the more trouble you're going to experience. And watch the "Are you ready for ICD-10?" webinar. It's a 56 minutes well spent if you're looking for strong background on ICD-10 codes.

Art resembles life and son resembles father
Well, this is something you may want to have a look at. Didn't think photographs, family trees and relatives would ever have something to do with art? Think again!
Bobby Neel Adams, a sensitive photographer residing in New York, has focused much of his work on the transformation of the human body by ageing and life's circumstances. Among other projects, he features one called FamilyTree, which is a series of portraits of immediate family members sized into one, allowing viewers to discover how they resemble each other.
Have a look at his projects, the findings are stunning. All of us are using family trees, pictures... comparing, searching... and here's someone who took the artistic path to express visually an important part of the genealogical process; we think it's a very interesting piece of work.
And because we understand it's about finding similarities, you can always use our own face recognition technology that helps you organize your family photos or allows you to have some fun playing with our look-alike widgets. It's not art, but it works.
Write history with us
It's almost the end of the summer, people are starting to migrate back to their homes, back to their jobs, schools, desks and computers. Thankfully, they come back filled with sunny happy memories of holidays spent with family and loved ones.

Within the few hours people get back home they can now upload all their holiday pictures and videos, all these pretty souvenirs, and share them online with their families! Nowadays, family albums get a second life, hopefully a longer one too, a life where negatives don't get mixed up and family albums don't get lost when moving house!

The MyHeritage Interview Series: educational blogger Susana Galeano
Politicians, stay-at-home dads, academics or businesswomen...they all know the value of family and the joys of staying in touch with them. But what is on their family photos? How often do they call their mother and what celebrity do they secretly admire? Get ready to find out through the MyHeritage interview series!
How far can the maternal instinct go? Susana Galeano Jordan knows that it goes a long way, dedicating her whole life to children.
A professional graphic designer from Mexico, she's also a Montessori guide and has been a children's caretaker since she was 12 years old. Her love for children is related to her position in the family. She's the youngest of many brothers, whom started to have kids when she was still very young. She learnt how to take care of them and to teach them.
Later, with kids of her own, she ended up working as a Montessori guide at her daughters' school, teaching, among other, computer lessons to disabled children.
Through that experience she got interested in working with children and to help their parents in the process of bringing them up. That's how she started her own blog, "kuttykids", focused on education related issues. It's her way to express her disposition and passion to help parents educate their children.
But let her tell us more about her:

Your Family Events Just Learnt to Talk
You know those balloons that appear, if you hover over names? They look like a speech bubble and give you the key info about the person they are talking about. We've recently added them to our events as well - on the home page and the event section - so without a single click you'll know what's going on. But that's just the most visual way in which the new event features have started talking.
Building upon our recent refurbishment of the main event section we have made your family events more interactive:
Your MyHeritage calendar can now talk to Outlook
Clicking on any event name in the balloon or elsewhere will take you to the new event details page.

The Breakfast Social Club
I'm French and in France people like to go for lunch for hours! Eating is more of a social gathering rather than the mere need to feed your body. Thus, moving to the UK and seeing that most people in the office come in with their sandwiches and munch them alone in front of their screens was somewhat of a depressing discovery. After a few discussions with the My Heritage team we agreed that it would indeed be nice to take a break at lunchtime and open up to one another. It was decided we'd attend a restaurant called The Breakfast Club which happens to be inspired by the late 80's teen movie of the same name. As soon as we sat down, the place made us share childhood memories, tastes in film and music and I guess, we started to get to know each other better...

The Phoenix Volunteer Fire Company of Hollidaysburg has a simple but powerful reminder for all members of our community this weekend.
When you change your clocks for daylight saving time, change the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors, and please remind your friends, family and neighbors to do the same.
Twenty-five years ago, Energizer and the International Association Of Fire Chiefs recognized a disturbing trend that many home fire fatalities were taking place in homes without working smoke alarms. The Change Your Clock Change Your Battery program was developed to help reduce and hopefully, one day, eliminate this number.
Along with thousands of fire departments nationwide, Energizer and the IAFC have been reminding communities to check and change their smoke alarm batteries and to make sure their alarms are working when they set their clocks.
Working smoke alarms cut the risk of dying in reported home fire structures in half.
As a 55-year fire service veteran, I have witnessed firsthand the tragedy and devastation of home fires. It's even more heartbreaking when a young life is cut short. Thousands are injured and killed each year from home fires.
Overall, almost 66 percent of home fire deaths in this country occur in homes without working smoke alarms.
Considering that residential fire deaths peak in winter months, it is critical to check and change your smoke alarm batteries each and every fall.
Robert E. Kerns
Fire Marshal, Hollidaysburg


text: Zooko, all: I wrote a set of strong opinions on the defense in depth issue, and I wrote them in haste. In the process, I probably worded them more strongly than I should have. My apologies in particular to Zooko. The discussion, I think, is a productive one. I would simply like to see it be more productive by recognizing that multiple different things are being discussed as though they were the same. I believe that if we clearly separate our discussions of policy and mechanism the entire discussion about defense in depth will be clearer. > I'm sorry if my small contribution (reminding David Wagner to include the > cost of complexity in his argument) seemed like partisan bickering. I did not take Zooko's contribution in any such way. I was responding to the thread as a whole, and not to anything in particular that Zooko said. Jonathan

Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Make a reusable Easter bag that stuffs into its own carrot pocket for easy storage. This reusable Easter bag is made from bed sheets and is a great alternative to purchasing plastic bags or baskets this Easter. Project designed by Cristin Frank.
- Bed Sheet
- Fabric Pencil
- Sewing Machine
- Ribbon (1" wide) or Double Bias Tape
For the Carrot Pocket:
- Small draw string bag + orange and green markers
- OR orange and green fabric and thin ribbon for drawstring
- Cut a 40" x 14" square out of the bed sheet & fold in ½ to be 14"x20.
- Make a template for the bag handles using a piece of cardboard. Trace on fabric using a fabric pencil.
- Cut out bag handles.
- Prepare carrot drawstring pocket by coloring an exiting bag or by making one with fabric. Bag height will be about 7."
- Turn the carrot inside out so raw edges are exposed on the outside of the reusable bag. When the bag stuffs into the carrot pocket, the carrot turns inside right. Sew the carrot along its sides (triangle with open top) to the outside of the bag.
- With bag folded to 14"x20" with the right side facing out, place a pin 2" up on each side from the bottom fold.
- Fold the front of the bag down, letting it catch on the pins. Pick it up at the pins so the back will fall down as well. The bottom of the bag should have 4 layers of fabric accordion folded. Now sew up the sides of the bag.
- Pin a double hem (iron down if you'd like) and sew around the top opening of the bag.
- Iron the 1" wide ribbon in half and sew around the inside circular bag handles.

Contract Law and Morality
Nathan B. Oman
William & Mary Law School
William & Mary Law Review, Vol. 48, 2007
This brief piece introduces the contract law section of a symposium on law and morality. I argue that notwithstanding the empirical turn in recent scholarship, moral reflection remains important for the study of contract law for two reasons. First, because without normative theories we cannot construct what Hart called internal interpretations of the law. In the absence of such interpretations, we are left with a basic puzzle about the purposes and coherence of the law that we already have. Second, contrary to the claims made by some empiricists, there are genuine conflicts about the merits and implications of our normative commitments. Indeed, when moral claims are stated at a level that commands universal assent, they tend to become banal.

The authors very modestly called their book a "compendium"; it is, in fact, a very detailed discussion—in German—of fluid and electrolyte metabolism. Basic physiology is reviewed admirably, and the terminology is carefully defined. One example is the discussion of acidosis and alkalosis: the central position of the hydrogen ion concentration is clearly stated, and such misleading terms as "hyperchloremic acidosis" and "hypochloremic alkalosis" are never mentioned. The chapter on renal function contains all the pertinent information as well as a discussion of modern theories, such as Wirz's "counter current loop multiplier" (with regard to sodium reabsorption).
It is pointed out in the introduction that some disagreement among readers is to be expected in a field that is continuously in flux. This reviewer wants to record one such objection; it is in regard to the handling of phosphate in vitamin D-resistant rickets. Increasing evidence is being presented that the tubules handle

Try as we might we are finding it difficult, if not impossible, to suggest a design improvement. The GO is perfect. Our GO came through a 35 mph wind storm and flooding rains without any problem
—Jim and Donna, Berea OH.—
You didn't buy your ride because of it's fuel economy. Freedom and good times, that's what a bike truly embodies: your head to the wind mile after mile. But let's widen the scope a bit: what about weather? What about passengers? What about sleep? SylvanSport's GO motorcycle camper is the perfect tag along. Lightweight, super-versatile, and heavy duty, the American-built GO motorcycle camper was designed for the intrepid spirit. Immerse yourself in a long haul ride with confidence knowing you've got your own back in the face of practical obstacles like rain, flat tires, and No Vacancy signs.
Whether you're hauling to the rally, a killer music fest, the big race, or should misfortune strike on the road, the GO motorcycle camper will handle it all with gusto. This ideal and small towable motorcycle camper will hold a payload of 1000 pounds despite weighing only 840 lbs, which translates to improved towing gas mileage. The light weight of the GO motorcycle camper also means that almost any car can tow it (even a Prius!). SylvanSport recommends that all GO owners follow the guidelines put forth by their tow vehicle manufacturer. We do not recommend doing anything that would either void a warranty, create an unsafe condition on the road, or put anyone in an uncomfortable situation. SylvanSport also designed the GO motorcycle camper to be as universal as possible, so odds are if it's got a hitch, some doors, and four wheels, it'll tow the GO.
Sure, the GO motorcycle camper sounds all engineered and scientific, but that sleek aluminum frame houses more than purpose-driven ingenuity. Forged from all-aluminum aircraft grade extrusions with all seams tig-welded for maximum strength and durability, SylvanSport made the GO motorcycle camper adjustable not only to accommodate a variety of gear but to transform into the best above ground tent on the market. Offload your ride with ease back down the ramp, unfurl the Kelty tent structure from its own storage compartment, and set up your luxurious tent complete with king-size (and a half!) self-inflating mattress, zip-on awning, and stargazer windows.
Use the GO motorcycle camper to supplement your countrywide roam in comfort even in small groups or to bring your favorite ride along to the big event for easy coming and going. It only takes one person to hitch it onto a vehicle and operate the control-tilt cargo bed with pneumatic dampening system to lower the lip for easy, ramp-free loading and unloading. Not only can the GO motorcycle camper handle your small to mid-size bike, it can stow whatever else you can fit in the waterproof lockable storage box, safe from the weather as well as passersby.

Adam Booth and David Haye have always been a little difficult to negotiate with, but I always blamed the Klitchkos, some days in the past it felt like I was by myself. But now it seems people are waking to their ways. They are extremely dirty businessmen, Boente is a piece of garbage.
I can't wait until these kinds of promoters are gone from boxing, they all seem to belong to previous generations when the boxing was less transparent, but the Internet has changed the game, it is much easier now to see the BS.
Haye would in my opinion take the fight, but he is not going to bend over either. This has always been the problem. People say he ducked the brothers but there were always reasons...Setanta, poor purses, options on his future fights, rematch clauses, etc. He did the right thing fighting Valuev, he made huge money from Valuev, Ruiz, and Harrison, the last by all accounts was a little bit of a farce, but the guy was the European Champion and Haye himself told everyone what was going to happen, he never duped the public, casual fans just didn't know what they were looking at. All of this allowed him the leverage to warrant a 50/50 agains Wlad.
I don't feel Vitali's camp are ducking the fight, it was kind of poor timing. But they could make the fight now if they really wanted it. But I believe Boente's hate of Haye will stop that happening.

A catenary line went down just after southbound Penn Line train #415 passed BWI about 7:24 am. This affected all three tracks near BWI and shut down most Penn Line and Amtrak traffic for almost 5 hours.
We are working with our partners at Amtrak to determine what caused the problem. We recognize that this was a significant inconvenience for many of you today and we sincerely regret the disruption in your travel plans. However, when such incidents occur your safety has to be our top priority.

Just got back from my first cruise ever and the Island Escape was the ideal ship to cut your teeth on. Yes, the ship may be a converted ferry but it was fabulous. The crew worked so hard to make sure everyone was looked after - from the housekeeping staff right up to the entertainment team. The cabins were adequate, our steward, Satpal, kept it spotless - coming in 4-5 times a day to tidy up. There was plenty of storage/drawer space although a few more coat hangers would have been nice.
The food was gorgeous, there were salads, cold meats, hot meals, soups, breads etc and the desserts were fab. All the food was displayed so colourfully. There were some people who ate like complete pigs but you will get that on any all-inclusive deal. The entertainment was excellent. We played bingo and enjoyed the quizzes every night. The game shows were hilarious. Special mention to Tony Mack, Lucas, and the fab Ross - really enjoyed your shows. The excursions were a bit expensive but if you weren't too confident in going on shore on your own then then were ideal. The swimming pool is tiny but there were lots of sunbeds on most of the top decks, they were close together but you could move them if you wanted to. The bar crew came round often to take drinks orders so you could stay in one spot if you wished. The décor on the ship was really great and everything was kept spotlessly clean.
Overall I think that it was real value for money and would definitely go on this ship again. Don't listen to the moaners, they obviously would be more at home on the QE2.

Businessman jailed after asbestos roof death
A businessman has been jailed for 12 months after his company illegally supplied roofing panels containing asbestos, which were so fragile that a construction worker fell through one of them and later died.
Company director Robert Marsh's offences came to light after a 56-year-old construction worker from South Staffordshire, who was roofing a barn using the panels, fell through the fragile material.
An investigation by the Health and Safety Executive found that 64-year-old Marsh, sole director of RM Developments (2005) Ltd of Newport, had supplied pre-used roofing sheets containing white asbestos to a farming partnership building a barn in Frankley, Worcestershire. During a three-day hearing at Worcester Crown Court it was heard that after Marsh supplied the roofing sheets, the partnership hired steelworker Tony Podmore to use the materials to build the barn.
But during the final phase of its construction on June 8, 2011, Mr Podmore, of Calf Heath, near Wolverhampton, fell through the fragile asbestos cement roof sheets, landing on the concrete floor more than six metres below. He later died of his injuries in hospital.
The farm partnership had agreed to pay £4,000 for what they thought would be substantial roofing material.
However Marsh supplied poor quality, second-hand roof panels that had cost him nothing.
As he had paid just £250 for transport, he stood to make a profit of £3,750 on the roof alone.
The court was told that after the fall, Marsh tried to persuade witnesses to hide the sheets that he had supplied telling one: "We'll all take the fall for this."
He also told Mr Podmore's daughter that her father had fallen from the roof edge rather than through the fragile roof sheets and later tried to persuade Mr Podmore's relatives not to report the incident to the HSE.
Marsh, of Station Road, Hornet, near Market Drayton, changed his plea to guilty on the first day of his trial to a health and safety charge and a charge relating to the safety of using white asbestos.
As well as the 12-month prison sentence he was disqualified from being a director for six years and ordered to pay £10,000 costs.
Passing sentence, Judge Michael Cullum said Mr Marsh's actions were 'wholly reprehensible' adding that he acted out of 'selfish self-interest' to maximise profit at the expense of health and safety.Subscribe to our Newsletter
