Posted on 04/05/2013 10:30:55 AM PDT by Freeport
Apart from heating and cooling the house, water heating is one of the biggest energy drains in the average home. But what if you could literally use cold water to create hot water? Thats just what San Diego inventor Hal Slater claims to have done with the creation of a water heater system that promises to improve water heating efficiency by as much as 50 to 100 percent.
The system works on the basis that cold water supplied to households in temperate climates averages around 70° F (21° C), which the researchers say is 15° to 20° F (8° to 11° C) warmer than it needs to be. By using a small water-to-water heat pump, the system extracts this excess heat from water in a 20-gallon (76 liter) cold water tank and delivers it to a typical 50-gallon (189-liter) water heater.
With funding from a grant from the California Energy Commission, Slater teamed up with a research team from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), led by Dr. Jan Kleissl of the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department, to test the system. To test real-world performance and determine the effects of different incoming cold water temperatures, they installed three prototype systems in homes in coastal, mountain and desert climates. They also monitored each system for a year to compare performance over different seasons.
(Excerpt) Read more at gizmag.com ...
Just a guy, his idea, some parts & cash and a few students.
In St. George, Utah, they don't use furnaces to heat their homes, they use heat pumps. They work very well, even when the temps drop down into "zero" territory.
So the guy refrigerates his incoming water and sets the exhaust heat into the feed side of his hot water heater. No big deal.
He'd get better results if he tried to do the same thing with the waste water from shower, dishwasher and clothes washer drains instead of the incoming water.
However, I have my doubts that the efficiency numbers work out, or enough to justify the cost of the equipment.
If the cold water is already at 70 F, what colder water source would you transfer the heat to and why? Just fill the water heater with the 70 degree water. o.0 I must be missing something.
I know a guy who installed a drain-water heat-exchanger; from the temperature deltas and flow rates he said he was seeing, I figured he was getting an effective 7kw from it using the warm drain water to preheat the replacement water flowing into the water heater.
I insulate my pipes the the pelts of baby seals.
You got him with that one! :-)
Thanks for the laugh!
Extracting latent heat from one tank of water and transferring it to another is going to have a cost above and beyond the reduced heating expense in the hot water tank benefitting from the transfer. If you want colder tap water you might get it for "free," cost of the system notwithstanding, imho.
That's a good idea. I wonder if cat skins would work?
I've worked that idea in head many mornings standing in the shower watching the warm water go down the drain. My idea centers around a manifold to smaller drain pipes in parallel to increase the surface area. But I keep getting hung up on what a god-awful clog it would create in time. Next thought was to come up with a finned drain pipe similar to old school baseboard hot water heat. Then again if I switch to cold showers I won't be thinking about it.
I know that I have to use warm water for washing because cold water (as defined for washing clothes) is around 85°F while the cold water from my pipes is below 50°F in the winter and may be up to 60°F in the summer. That's not washing or rinsing anything well. If I get a new washing machine that only has a cold rinse, I'll have to premix hot and cold water before it goes into the cold washer intake.
Tankless water heaters work pretty well and save money. In three years, mine has just about paid for itself and the upgrade in electrical wiring. The wiring cost more than the heater.
I light my house with an arc welder.
Most residential users mix hot and cold to about 90-100 degrees. That is still 30-50 degrees of overall heating. I suppose it can be offset by toilets but those only use 1-1.5 gallons today.
Only the warmest places get 70 degree water out of the ground. That is far from typical in the USA. I did a project at the equator and it was 74 degrees from the ground.
There ARE already heat-pump water heaters that take heat from the air. I think those are far better. Especially if it sits inside a hot mechanical room.
I could heat my water with a few students (in shifts):
Ground source heat pumps have been around for over 100 years. They are hands over more efficient than burning fossil fuels or air to air heat pumps. Their drawback.....huge first costs.....
After a couple of test projects in the Reno area, the State of Nevada determined that they reached payback for the high initial (construction) costs in 3-5 years. Nevada now mandates usage of these type systems in many School and public buildings....
Radiant in floor heating systems are often designed with water to water ground source heat pumps to good effect......
nothing really new here as far as I can see......
I've found I can make money with just a cheap computer and an old color printer.
Heat pump type water heaters fail miserably in real life use; it might be a function of the number of duty cycles but I think they're just too complex for something that needs to be 100% reliable ,It shouldn't matter if it's a heat pump pulling heat from air like your A/C or it's a water to water system as this guy wants to build.
I've had 2 tankless electric heaters fail over a 5 year period BIG 3*60 AMP ones ,, with 3 chambers theres a lot of possible failure points and don't try to reason with the wife when she has to take a cold shower...
What works in any climate is/are GAS tankless water heaters ... my Aunts home in Brooklyn still has their original tankless water heater from 1926 ,, just updated to eliminate the pilot light... amazingly simple , just a copper coil about 6" in diameter and 2 feet in length(THICK COPPER) inside a tube that narrows to become the chimney/exhaust.
The 1970's/1980's solution was to capture waste heat from the A/C pressure/liquid side with a sealed heat exchanger box... WORKED GREAT and improved A/C efficiency also... don't know why it has fallen out of favor.
Best solution now in warm climates is passive solar heat with electric backup.
I would think that the parts of the world which have 70 degree ground water would also have plenty of sunlight and ambient air temps.
A solar hot water heater, or even just heating the pipes to ambient air temp would probably be a far better primary solution in these places.
Perhaps the groundwater heat pump could be used in the "cold" season in those areas to some effect...
Question! What kind of heat pumps are being used, air to air, or ground to air? Also do you have any data/idea on relative temperatures? We have an air to air heat pump for a home at 3600 ft. in northern CA and it holds house ,1500 sq. ft, temp at 69-70F down to about 32-35 degrees.
Don't ask ME! I live in Alaska! But when I lived in St. George, all the homes had heat pumps on the roofs. Very common. Look them up online and you should be able to find out everything you are interested in.
The way the one I referred to was described was that there was a central pipe (copper) 3" or 4" in diameter, through which the waste water flowed - spliced in to the existing drain line from the bathtub.
It, then, had another copper pipe - normal supply pipe, 1/2" or so, wound tightly on a mandrel so it was slightly deformed to increase the surface-area contact. The cold water flowed through that one on its way to the heater, and warmed significantly.
Worked well for showers, when the supply came in as the same time as the outflow; not so good for baths.
There ya go.
Effectively 7kw in free power while the shower is running.
"No big deal."
energy loss in both conversions, the guy is BS!
Improving hot water heating efficiency ... with cold water
Why is he heating hot water?
I'm still waiting on that E-cat water heater.
First thing I thought of. I was scrolling down looking to see if anyone brought it up. They might get some gains by capturing some of that ambient heat in the pipe water, but I highly doubt their efficacy numbers. A good amount of that ambient heat will be lost by warming the now too cold tap water. The dish washing machine is about the only thing that uses the fully heated hot water.
I'm in Florida. I heat my house with a heat pump, as do 90% of Floridians. However, the efficiency of a heat pump is quite poor once the outside temps dip below about 25F.
I do like using the outside coils of the AC to heat water. But I think you would get a surplus of hot water.
To preheat water, solar energy is the cheapest.
Best for non-freezing climbs, the pipes can be laid right below the roof. You'll get 150F water.
just not around anyone's necks, right. No mandela necklaces?
Damn near any proposal containing the word "green" can get funding these days.
Ummm... did you say your name was Ben Bernanke>
Works the same way as a home heat pump, air conditioner or even the refrigerator. Compress a working fluid, radiate the created heat then take a pressure drop. It creates a cold point below ambient.
>> "Best solution now in warm climates is passive solar heat with electric backup." <<
Warm climates, with soft water only!
Put it in a cold climate with hard water and the freeze valves will fail within a year. Warm climate with hard water, about two years.
For relatively low delta T, pumping heat requires relatively little energy. Going pumping from 70 degrees to 110 degrees wouldn't require a huge amount of energy.
I haven't done the math but going from 70 to 140 degrees might take twice as much energy. The lower the temperature delta, the closer you come to zero energy cost to pump heat. Now that I am rambling, the math is actually pretty cool as you approach 0 delta the amount of heat pumped per unit of energy expended approaches infinity. Ground source heat pumps are very efficient because they make delta T much smaller, both in the summer and the winter.
It was great while it worked, if the maintenance costs were ignored. I also just dumped the cold water. There was a convenient lake nearby. The deer liked the open water. BTW, the well water was a consistent 50 degree year round. Ground water is always at the average annual temperature (or warmer).

Borden-King feels a sense of community at MSU
When Lisa Borden-King arrived at Minot State University in 1997, a clinic that served kids with reading difficulties was well-established but had between five and 15 students attending.
Now, 15 years later, the clinic run by undergraduate and graduate students in MSU's education department is full and there is a waiting list of 50 to 80 kids.
"When I came we were getting mostly teacher referrals," said Borden-King, director of the office of teacher advisement and field placement at Minot State. She said the program grew after the department sent out letters to area schools advertising its services and more people started hearing about the clinic.
Borden-King said many kids have a real need for services but her ability to serve them is limited by the size of the classes. She has 25 students in her undergraduate classes and 10 in graduate classes who work with the reading clinic.
The reading clinic requires that the children being served receive one-on-one attention geared towards their specific reading problem, which limits the number of kids that the MSU students can work with.
"It's a very individualized program," said Borden-King, who said the reading clinic can help kids who might not be getting all the help they need at school. Some children are referred to the clinic by parents or teachers who aren't quite sure how to help a particular kid with a reading problem.
"There are always kids who fall through the cracks," she said.
Borden-King, a former kindergarten teacher who later moved into academia, said it is one of her dreams to expand the reading clinic at the university to serve even more people with reading problems.
"That's my goal in life," said Borden-King. "What I would truly love to see in the end is a community literacy center."
Barring that, she'd like to be able to expand the summer program to serve more people.
Borden-King said a literacy center might help people of all ages. Borden-King has served as a volunteer tutor for some of those people.
One of the people she tutored was a man in his 30s who was functionally illiterate but badly wanted to learn how to read, said Borden-King, who worked with him.
Reading is an important skill for the obvious reasons, such as passing a driver's license test or getting a better job, said Borden-King, but the man she tutored most wanted to learn how to read because he felt left out of the world.
Borden-King said he wanted to be able to read all of the signs he saw in the hallway and asked her to tell him what they said. In a print-rich world, a person who can't read won't be able to read instructions to put something together at work or the signs he sees in the community.
More adults in the Minot area have trouble with reading than people might expect, said Borden-King, who said illiteracy might be a problem if someone has dropped out of high school or had a reading difficulty that was never addressed when they were in school.
Borden-King works with adults who want to learn how to read because people sometimes approach her for help and because teaching is one of the things she's good at and likes to do.
Borden-King said she always keeps an eye out for funding sources that might help the university expand its services and help her meet her goal of expanding the program.
She said such a program should be self-sustaining once any grant or donation runs out, though. Charging fees for their services at the reading clinic is problematic because so many of the families they serve are low income. The program charges $10 for materials in the summer and probably only collected the fee from half of the families it served, she said.
Borden-King also often confers with teachers in area school systems and her education students work in area classrooms.
Borden-King won an award from the North Dakota Education Association Ready Child Community Based Award in 2009 for her work with reading.
"This is what I'm proudest of," she said, gesturing at the trophy she keeps in her office. Borden-King said it felt great to be recognized by teachers who recognize the work that she does.
Borden-King said she moved over to university teaching because she liked the idea of impacting future teachers. Each one of her students will go on to impact a class of more than 20 young kids each year.
Borden-King said she also likes to read as a hobby and enjoys science fiction and mysteries, but she usually only has time to read them when classes aren't in session.
The rest of the year she is too busy teaching others how to teach reading.

Work of a multitasker. Photo by totalAldo/Flickr, cc by 2.0
To be effective workers, many of us use learned principles of best workplace practices, even though they may counter our natural instincts. But this goes against a common sense idea that your personal tendencies could help you at work. In "Autism and Humanity" this week, Paul Collins cites psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen's research correlating autism with certain professions:
"There's been really fascinating research on this done by Simon Baron-Cohen at Cambridge University. And what he noticed essentially was that there seemed to be a lot of autistic siblings, in particular, of students of his who were in science-related majors and, you know, math students as well, and engineering students, and that kind of thing. And so initially, he simply looked at, just sort of did an informal study comparing English majors and the rates of autism in their families with a number of science majors. And the science majors that he was looking at had rates that were like five and six times that of autism in their families. Interestingly enough, the English majors had much, much higher rates of manic depression in their families…
Which is suddenly all makes sense. So, and then when he expanded to studying the broader population, he found that this held up. That actually, when you looked at the professions that family members of people with autism were in, they tended to be in things like accounting, engineering, computer programming, and had very low rates of employment in fields like sales, for instance."
Harvard Business Review recently made a similar point with seven personality traits of successful salespeople. The research took an organic approach to understanding what personality traits top salespeople happened to have in common, and in what ways it served them in their sales roles.
Many of us may have struggled less on the career ladder by choosing a career more suited to our personalities. But would you trade in the unexpected skills or experiences picked up along the way?

The nameless lake sits at 11,400 feet in Wyoming's Fitzpatrick Wilderness, tight up against a ridge known as the Brown Cliffs. This high in the Wind River Range, there is no gentle fringe of trees, no sprigs of wildflowers to soften the sharp angles of the rocks, nothing but a few wind-blasted banks of snow. The blue eye of water stares straight up from a cracked bowl of boulders into a remote, seldom-visited land of wind and rock and sky.
At 1 o'clock in the afternoon on August 2, 1998, a lone hiker with a black dog was making his way through the chaos of boulders along the eastern shore of the unnamed lake. He was a tall man with a gait that was used to eating up the miles, but here he was moving slowly under the weight of his pack, picking his steps carefully and sweating under a chocolate-brown floppy hat. It was day 4 of a 9-day hike, and the going was tougher than he had hoped for. Snow and ice in the passes had rubbed the dog's paws raw, slowing the pace. And now all this rock.
Nearing the lake, the hiker stepped onto a large boulder that shifted precariously under his weight. Instinctively, he leapt. The rock ahead was solid but tilted up at an awkward angle. His boots hit, and slid. The boulder behind kept coming, closing the gap. Just as his legs slipped off the edge, the boulders slammed together, catching the man above the knees, pinning him as if in the jaws of a trap.
There would have been pain, panic rising hot in the back of his throat, a swirl of dust in the air like smoke. There would have been the gunpowder smell of cracked rock and the ricochet of smaller pebbles clattering down the slope and splashing into the lake. And then nothing. As suddenly as it all had started, the rocks stopped rolling. The deep silence of the wilderness flowed back in like the water that closed around those few small stones settling without a sound on the bottom of the unnamed lake.
In the first moments following the rockslide, Mike Turner lay stunned. His breath came in ragged gasps choked with dust and fear, his heartbeat thumping against the rock. The dog, a Labrador mix named Andy, pricked up his ears at the commotion, waiting for his master to get up and move on.
Turner checked himself for injuries. Miraculously, his legs were trapped but not broken. With his bare hands and then using his tripod as a lever, he heaved against the tremendous weight of rocks, trying to pull himself free. At first, the boulder moved enough to ease the pain, though not enough to free him. A flicker of hope rose in him like a flame. He tried again, the tripod nearly snapping under the strain. Nothing. And again.
For more than an hour, he pried and shoved. But caught facing away from the boulder that pinned him, legs dangling in midair, even a big man like Turner could not gain enough leverage to move a piece of granite the size of a small car. The flicker of hope began to fade.
Exhausted, he rested, mind racing. This didn't make sense. People don't get trapped this way. How many thousands of times before had he stepped on boulders that wobbled? Perhaps he could dig himself out. He couldn't reach the ground. Maybe he could yell for help. The wind swatted the sound from his throat.
He looked around. His view was nothing but rock, sky, and a glimmer of lake. He had almost made it; a dozen more steps and he'd have been at the lake's edge, resting, filling his water bottles, the dog lapping happily at the water, nudging him to move on around the lake. Below, he noticed a few scant pockets of snow in the shadows. He needed to calm down, take his time, and think this through rationally. And so the Reverend Mike Turner reached for his journal and began to write.
"About 2 hours ago a large rock rolled upon me and trapped my legs," the journal entry reads in scrawling, jagged letters. "I was very careful, be sure of that, but I hurt… I am in your hands Lord…I don't know what I face."

Standoff With Veteran Ends Peacefully on Table Rock Road
The Medford Mail Tribune is reporting that a police standoff Thursday with a suicidal Iraq War veteran ended peacefully. The 33-year old, whose name is not being released by Medford police was reportedly intoxicated at the time of the incident.
Police negotiators enlisted help from a V.A. counselor to talk with the man. No one was hurt, and the man was taken to the Moore Center to sober up. He would be taken to a hospital for a psychological assessment.

What about these burdens?
To the Editor:
In his recent letter to the editor, state Rep. Bob Gunther, R-Fairmont, opposes the sales tax plan on services, saying it would burden businesses. However, he didn't mention the burden that was created in 2011 by the Republican-controlled Legislature and Gov. Dayton. Called the 2011 Family Deductible Cost Sharing Requirement, this law cuts $2.55 from payments to Medical Assistance providers, which they in turn pass along to people with disabilities to pay.
Given the income earned by my two sons with disabilities, this is a 3 percent to 4 percent fee. This fee may be called cost-sharing, but it is really a tax on people who are low-income and don't have extra money to spare from their budgets.
If we are concerned about creating burdens, we should remove them first from those who are least able to bear them.
Rep. Gunther also says Gov. Dayton has not explained why Minnesota needs to spend $2.5 billion more over the next two years. People with disabilities, their allies and direct care staff here in southwest Minnesota could cite at least two reasons: 1) There shouldn't be any more cuts to services that help the poorest of the working poor and help people with disabilities contribute to and be part of their communities, and 2) it is time for a pay raise for staff who provide crucial support for people with disabilities and our nursing home residents.

Skip to comments.Current deficit plunges 32%
Posted on 05/11/2013 10:02:35 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
The annual deficit has fallen 32% over the first seven months of this fiscal year compared with same period last year, according to Congressional Budget Office figures released Tuesday.
A major reason: A big jump in tax revenue.
Tax collections rose by $220 billion -- or 16% -- between the start of the fiscal year on Oct. 1 through April 30. Individual and payroll taxes accounted for $184 billion of that increase.
The tax haul rose sharply primarily because wages and salaries were higher, the payroll tax cut of the past two years expired on Jan. 1 and the fiscal cliff deal brokered over New Year's raised tax rates on high earners.
Spending, meanwhile, fell 1.9% year over year, the CBO estimated.
The biggest percentage drop occurred in the payment of unemployment benefits, which were down nearly 25%, or $15 billion. Defense spending fell 5.3%, or $20 billion, and "other activities" -- primarily spending on nondefense programs -- fell 8.6%, or $58 billion.

CBO shows decline in budget deficit
The Congressional Budget Office reported Tuesday that the federal budget deficit is declining this year compared to fiscal 2012.
For the first seven months of 2013, the deficit was $489 billion. That is $231 billion less than the budget shortfall for the comparable period last year.
The decrease is almost entirely due to revenue increases. Revenues rose $200 billion and spending decreased only $11 billion.
Individual income tax and social insurance payroll taxes are up 16 percent this year compared to last year.
In January, Congress and the White House agreed to allow income taxes on those making more than $400,000 per year to rise and to end a 2-percentage point payroll tax holiday for all workers.
That has contributed to $132 billion more in income taxes and $52 billion more in payroll tax revenue, CBO estimated.
On the spending side, major discretionary items like defense saw notable decreases, but the mandatory entitlement programs continued their relentless march upward in cost.
Whereas defense spending has fallen by $20 billion, spending increased by $25 billion for Social Security and $15 billion for Medicare as the baby boomer generation ages into retirement.
*sigh* Talking points in the making. Reducing our budget deficit, while nice, means absolutely nothing in regards to our debt, and less than nothing in regards to our unfunded liabilities.
This means precisely nothing.
Fewer people working and more people receiving government entitlements. I'm not really sure we should be celebrating this. It sounds like more theft of other people's money might be going on.
How many days or weeks before they tell us this was a mistake? Sorry! Some low level govt worker put a decimal in the wrong place...
CBO: Are you gonna believe us or your own lyin' eyes?
Translation: Even with the Sequester cuts and massive tax increases, we are still on track to spend nearly a trillion more than we are taking in this year on top of the $16 trillion dollars in debt that our country is in and $80 trillion dollars in unfunded liabilities.
I'm not sure you read the story correctly.
In 2005, under Bush administration, there was a huge infilux of cash into the budget because tax cuts kicked in and economy grew at robust rates. This current trend is temporay, because of higher taxes the economy will go down and budget deficits will start to grow again.
Sounds like the deficit for the year could fall to about $650 billion — just a wild guess.
Whoever said 'crime doesn't pay' didn't work for the taxman.
My paycheck is supporting my family and how many others who leach off my hard earned money? There's barely anything left to pay bills after Uncle Sugar steals his share.
A major reason: A big jump in tax revenue. Tax collections rose by $220 billion... Individual and payroll taxes accounted for $184 billion of that increase... Spending, meanwhile, fell 1.9% year over year, the CBO estimated.
Take more money out of the Oconomy by raising taxes and tax revenues go up.
Who woulda' thought?
Probably only a 32% reduction if the didn't have to pay the inteerst back. We know how the supreme lar in chief spins things, if you decieve the people usin spin it's still a lie and dishonest.
Neither of you read, or grasped, the article.
Try again.
A lot of the big jump in income is special dividends by companies trying to beat a possible jump in the dividend tax rate from 15% to 43 %.
Although the tax never happened, many companies jumped their dividends to the last part of 2012.
On a personal level, I took about 100K of cap gains in 2012 just in case the cap gains tax jump. This was a one time event for me as I sold stock I held a long time and bought it back the next day (the wash sale rule applies only to losses, not to gains.)
Did certainty replace uncertainty?
For as long as we are shipping US jobs to China and buying a bunch of imports, we will run a deficit and our children will be suffering.
Bring back US jobs, and stop importing everything.
Sounds like the GOP's "obstruction" to cut back on Obama's spending is starting to have a effect.
Doesn't work that way, sorry. We can have a trade deficit, and our government can still spend money it doesn't have.
RE: Sounds like the GOPs obstruction to cut back on Obamas spending is starting to have a effect.
The liberal explanation is Obama's tax hikes on the wealthy has started to take effect.
Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner!
In FY 2007, the budget deficit was $160 billion, while the trade deficit in 2007 was $696 billion
The FY 2012 budget deficit was $1086 billion while the 2012 trade deficit was $540 billion.
Is that the relationship you felt they should have?
What's a few hundred billion when it's been running in the trillions for years.
Still allergic to facts, I see.
Maybe you can buy some cheap imported ones?
Our budget is in constant deficit.
Companies source more and more, from Chinese workers. Whose work benefits one government:
Bring back American jobs now.
Because government spends way too much. How is doubling the cost of oil, and crushing our economy, going to fix that?
Companies source more and more, from Chinese workers.
I wonder if cutting our highest in the world corporate tax rates as well as some of our idiotic regulations (Obamacare anyone?) would make domestic sources more viable?
You do not get it.
China is soaking up money and trade. Chinese trade laws are extremely one-sided, requiring local content and more importantly, ensuring a one-way flow of ever more money into the country by requiring goods be made in China with a majority ownership also, Chinese.
The cost difference was so great, that a huge number of American firms sold out, and now a majority of our "goods" are cheap imports.
More all the time.
It is time to push back.
Bring American goods home, and stop importing so much.
I do get it. You want to give the government more power and more control, I want the opposite.
and now a majority of our goods are cheap imports.
More than 50%? You need to buy some math, your math is lacking.
Bring American goods home, and stop importing so much.
By reducing government interference, not by doubling the cost of oil.
End your economic idiocy.
Either way one might choose to paint the picture...the US is being stripped of it's resources by other nations and leaderships in these trade deals....be it people, companies, and talent being shipped out to other nations....and if they can't or won't leave leave then those nations come here, buy them up, and put them under their roof.
Buy American.
Buy an American education in economics. You can start cheaply by reading Sowell and Williams.
I am not talking about oil, though that is a valid criticism.
I am talking about bringing back American manufacturing.
More. And more, "American" companies make all their things in China. In effect becoming Chinese companies.
We need our own businesses again.
We need taxation on imports, we need to perhaps even do something to require local content.
We have been on the wrong side of "free trade".
It is time for us to look out for America, and American businesses.
Not slum for American companies, which make money by sending jobs overseas.
American jobs.
Glad you realized the idiocy of your original tariff idea.
More. And more, American companies make all their things in China. In effect becoming Chinese companies.
You said more than 50% of our stuff is imported.
You don't help your cause when you make ridiculously inaccurate claims.
It is time for us to look out for America, and American businesses.
I agree. But your fix of ever bigger, more intrusive government is wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
Well we just flat-out disagree.
I do not accept any of your premises. You do not accept mine.
So. We disagree. Emphatically.
You disagree with my prescription of smaller, less powerful government.

One Killed In Route 60 Bus Crash
'Find Your Passion And Pursue It'
The first day of summer also proved to be the first day of post-high school life for the Jamestown Public Schools District's Class of 2013.
On Friday, the districts' 146th annual commencement ceremony was held at the Chautauqua Institution Amphitheater, where 261 seniors received their diplomas.
The ceremony featured a variety of speakers who addressed the graduates with bits and pieces of advice, as well as performances by the JHS concert band and A'Cappella Choir. Superintendent Daniel Kathman, who will be retiring at the end of July, kicked off the ceremony by addressing graduates for the last time as district superintendent.
"Members of the class of 2013, my message is really pretty straight forward," he said. "It comes from my own experience in how I stumbled through my senior year of high school, and in fact, the first couple years of my college experience. My message is: find your passion and pursue it. Follow your interests, chase your passions and chase them hard. You'll get past all the obstacles and tripwires that life throws at you if you keep that force."
Salutatorian Annie Dyatel followed Kathman with her own address that centered on breathing techniques she had learned as a competitive swimmer.
"If I may share a word of advice, take life one breath at a time," she said. "Don't ever confuse your life and your work. You will walk out of here this evening with only one thing no one else has. There will be hundreds of people out there with your same degree, and there will be thousands of people doing what you want to do for a living. But you will be the only person alive who has sole custody of your life."
The Valedictorian address was given by Zachary Eklum, who discussed the meaning of success from a variety of perspectives.
"We typically get caught up in life by defining words according to others rather than according to ourselves," he said. "The truth is, we all can be successful and we all are successful. But you are only as successful as you push yourself to become, and as you define yourself to become. And for all of us, we will run into many obstacles along the way-which will attempt to deviate us from success.
"My greatest advice to you is to do whatever it takes to overcome such obstacles that hinder your path to success, and to achieve personal greatness," he added.
Mike McElrath, JHS principal, began his address by recognizing Kathman, and wishing him well on his impending retirement. McElrath then turned his attention to the graduates.
"It's only fitting that today is the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, because this class certainly deserves to have the light on them as long as possible," he said.
Other speakers included: Kelsey Abbott, who provided the invocation; Olivia Zabrodsky, who presented a tribute to parents; Rae Lynn Reimondo, presenting the100 Member Club awards; class co-president Ryan Salemme, who gave the presidents' message; and class advisers Paige Anderson and Jean Brink.
The keynote speaker was Raymond Fashano, a class of 1966 JHS graduate and former district superintendent, who stressed the importance of achieving a post-secondary education and employing courage on the path to success.

and no, not the kind that goes on in CDT's garage.
Anyone do this? I am looking to buy my first smoker and I am leaning heavily towards propane for the ease of use. Not sure I want to deal with the expense, mess or maintenance of charcoal. Is this a mistake? Anyone use electric? I am thinking of starting off small and going with one similar to this http://www.homedepot.com/Outdoors-Grills-Grill-Accessories-Smokers-Fryers/h_d1/N-5yc1vZbx92/R-100661410/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053 I have seen it in person and it appears to be big enough to handle 2 pork shoulders.
Oh and I should add, I am a cheap bastard. I am not buying the Big Green Egg yet. I need to make sure I use this consistently enough before I drop that type of cash.
Advice anyone?
Really trying to lure Boston Butt in to this conversation.

"Doubt" by Bensh is a good song: moody, folksy indie pop with a loping bass-line and a chorus that, while catchy enough to sing along with, still provides the appropriate dosage of angst.
But, when you add a video (filmed in Berlin and directed by Lynn Kossler) that's influenced by M.C. Escher: now that was the extra ingredient that grabbed my attention!
Bensh's LP Clues is out now.

Rated 4.5 out of 5�by 23 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by Joy02 This product is very durable This is our second pair. My 8 year old grew out if her previous pair. Durable and comfortable. ...she loves it and great for skating outside. February 1, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Mom Fun! Purchased for 4-5 yr old. She's in heaven! Wheels are great and learning curve is minimized with ice skating experience December 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Ellie Granddaughter Favorite My 6 year old granddaughter had a rollerskating birthday party! She has wanted her own skates and is thrilled with these cute skates! December 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by peewee Great First Skate The skates are perfect for a seven-year old's birthday present. The shipment arrived earlier than promised. Thank you! The package was practically destroyed - crushed, torn with a hole large enough to see inside. The skates were protected by the plastic bag they were in. I didn't complain to UPS because the skates were not damaged, but thought you should know. May 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Roler Skates Sidewalk roller skates Amazing my daughter loves them, more balance for beginners than Roller blades. Had them shipped to store then picked them up as they don't deliver to Canada. Very helpful staff. Better price than competitors. Bought them for 2 kids and myself April 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by twins Good starter skates I bought these for my twins' sixth birthday. They've never been on skates before, so I like that these have low, wide wheels. I think they work great, with good stability, and my girls love them... plus the low price is a bonus. They are nicely adjustable with the laces and velcro, although the leather is pretty stiff (seems normal for skates?). I would say they run slightly large, size-wise. April 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Debbie5grands Great Deal for Quality I bought these for my granddaughter. Compared to rink rental skates, these seem to be of comparable quality for the price paid. Picture and ad was very well representative of the actual product. March 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Camogirl Great skates My daughter just loves these skates! They arrived very quickly! Very satisfied! January 16, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Zehow great skates My daughter is 6 and loves these skates. They are good quality and fit true to size. Definitely would recommend these to a friend. January 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Rambo1 Good price with quality My daughter is just beginning to learn to skate. Very nice product. Well built, Worth the price. January 1, 2014

Gilles Villeneuve
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Luc Harvey Louis-Hébert, QC
Mr. Speaker, on May 8, 1982, during the second day of qualifications at the Zolder Grand Prix, in Belgium, Gilles Villeneuve left us. On that day, this Formula 1 pioneer in Canada was trying to beat Didier Pironi's time.
We lost a friend and a role model.
Gilles Villeneuve was our pride, because he showed, throughout his exceptional career, that he was an outstanding champion, and an unforgettable Formula 1 figure. Gilles Villeneuve showed that he was the stuff of champions during his very first race, in 1967. His sole objective was to take the top spot on the podium.
This is why I hope the House of Commons will remember this great Canadian, who remains a most prominent figure in Quebec and in Canada.
Court Challenges Program
Statements By Members
May 8th, 2007 / 2:10 p.m.
Jean-Claude D'Amours Madawaska—Restigouche, NB
Mr. Speaker, this morning, francophones and minorities in Canada were faced with a Conservative government that has no respect for the committees of this House, and even less for all the minorities in this country.
This morning, witnesses were to appear before the Standing Committee on Official Languages, which was undertaking its study of the court challenges program and its impact on minorities. Mere minutes before the meeting was to begin, the Conservative members unilaterally decided to cancel the meeting and, as a result, to send home witnesses who had gone through the trouble of travelling hundreds of kilometres to come and explain the merits of the program.
While the Conservative members did vote for a review of the court challenges program, it has become obvious today that the Prime Minister, his ministers and his members of Parliament are oblivious to the work we on the committee have to do, not for them, the Conservatives, but for the people of this country.
We have here a government that is asking us to believe what it says. But we have had yet another opportunity today to see the true colours of this Conservative government which does not pay any attention to the minorities, to the people. This government has no respect for the people of Canada. It should start showing us some respect.
National Nursing Week
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Steven Fletcher Charleswood—St. James—Assiniboia, MB
Mr. Speaker, May 7 to 13 is National Nursing Week in Canada. This year's theme, "Think You Know Nursing? Take A Closer Look", calls on Canadians to challenge their perceptions of the role of nurses in our health care system.
Nurses are at the heart of our health care system. Nurses are leaders, innovators and pioneers in all areas of the economy, from research and the military to technology and advocacy. Nurses' knowledge and skills contribute to the well-being of individuals, groups and communities in a variety of settings.
Daily they can be found working in emergency rooms, intensive care units, visiting new mothers at home, teaching in community centres, or providing end of life care. Nurses are a critical component of inter-professional teams of health care specialists.
This week, please join with me in recognizing and honouring the invaluable contribution that nurses make to our health care system and the health of citizens in communities across Canada.
The Economy
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Penny Priddy Surrey North, BC
Mr. Speaker, the NDP is working to remind the Conservatives and Liberals that there is a growing prosperity gap in Canada.
My constituents tell me every day that they are having a hard time making ends meet, and too many people in Surrey North are having trouble making ends meet because they have recently lost their jobs. The Conservatives and Liberals were silent when 700 Air Canada maintenance workers lost their jobs in the Lower Mainland. The Conservatives abandoned mill workers with the softwood lumber sellout and invested nothing in their budget to fight the pine beetle. Last fall the government even cut workplace skills programs.
It is clear that the Conservatives and Liberals do not understand the needs of everyday people.
We need sectoral strategies for keeping jobs in Canada. We need the government to play a leadership role in preventing job losses and in helping unemployed Canadians find new work. We need a real action plan to close the prosperity gap.
I am proud to be an NDP MP from Surrey North and I am proud to be a member of the only party that works to make life more affordable for Canadians.
VE Day
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Rodger Cuzner Cape Breton—Canso, NS
Mr. Speaker, today, May 8, is the anniversary of victory in Europe. Sixty-two years ago, Germany's unconditional surrender was announced. In an hour of victory tempered by sorrow, the war in Europe was over.
Today we honour those who made the supreme sacrifice and we honour the veterans of Canada.
From the San Francisco conference that founded the United Nations, Prime Minister Mackenzie King addressed the nation. He said:
--our fighting forces have written glorious pages of history for which Canada will remain forever in their debt....
--you have helped to rid the world of a great scourge. For all time it will be yours to claim a share in the triumph of right...you, one and all, are entitled to be numbered among the benefactors of mankind.
Today we recommit ourselves to that remembrance, knowing that the love of honour never grows old. For the sacrifice of Canadians in that terrible war, we shall forever be grateful, and we shall forever remember.
Corporal Benoît Chevalier
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Robert Bouchard Chicoutimi—Le Fjord, QC
Mr. Speaker, last Sunday, Corporal Benoît Chevalier died in a plane crash in the Sinai Desert in Egypt. He was part of a contingent of 28 Canadian soldiers on a peacekeeping mission. The 25-year-old from Macamic, in the Abitibi region, had been a radar controller with 3 Wing Bagotville since July 2003. Colonel Pierre Ruel of 3 Wing Bagotville said that the young man was a radar controller without equal and was involved in the military community and social life of Bagotville. In addition to tributes from the commanding officer, Corporal Chevalier received a number of others from his friends and family, who remembered him as a likeable, dynamic person who was always up for an adventure.
The Bloc Québécois would like to extend its sincere condolences to the family, colleagues and friends of Corporal Benoît Chevalier at this very difficult time.
Red Cross and Red Crescent
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Keith Martin Esquimalt—Juan de Fuca, BC
Mr. Speaker, today we honour the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, the largest humanitarian network in the world, comprising 185 member national societies and over 100 million volunteers.
By coordinating partnerships between governments, NGOs and the private sector, the movement saves lives and reducing suffering in communities devastated by war, disease and disaster.
From Canada to the Congo and Iraq to Afghanistan, the movement rehabilitates the disabled, visits detainees, restores family links, provides essential health care and promotes humanitarian law. From reducing measles deaths by 75% in Africa to combating malaria, the movement has saved millions of lives.
On behalf of the Liberal Party, I salute Dr. Pierre Duplessis, the secretary general of the Canadian Red Cross, and the extraordinary volunteers, here in Canada and around the world, who help the dispossessed. They are true heroes.
Marine Environment
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
James Moore Port Moody—Westwood—Port Coquitlam, BC
Mr. Speaker, I am proud to inform the House that today our government announced the enactment of new and enhanced marine regulations. The new national regulations demonstrate our government's zero tolerance toward the discharge of pollutants, garbage and sewage in our coastal waters and inlets.
The new regulations apply to all boats in all waters in Canada and will help eliminate the deliberate, negligent, or accidental discharge of waste and toxins from ships into the marine environment.
This is a major step forward in our efforts to ensure that Canadians have clean water, and that our oceans and lakes are protected. Under our Conservative government, Canada is becoming a leader in the prevention of marine pollution.
The village of Belcarra in my riding has spent over 10 years calling on Ottawa to ban the dumping of sewage and chemicals into our coastal waters.
Our Conservative government has taken action. From Bedwell Bay to Burrard Inlet, Indian Arm, all the waters surrounding my community and all our coastal waters in Canada, we are going to keep our coasts clean and preserve the beauty of our environment.
Oral Questions
2:15 p.m.
Stéphane Dion Leader of the Opposition
Mr. Speaker, on behalf of Canadian workers and families who work very hard to earn a living, I am asking the Prime Minister to bring the Minister of Finance back to his senses and ask him to stop penalizing Canadian companies that want to strengthen their position in the global economy and expand abroad and that are asking him to put a stop to this ill-conceived policy and make interest deductible once again.
Oral Questions
2:15 p.m.
Calgary Southwest
Stephen Harper Prime Minister
Mr. Speaker, under this Minister of Finance, Canada has the lowest unemployment rate I have ever seen in my life. That is proof that the Minister of Finance is doing a good job. He has indicated that he will soon announce the details of this policy to ensure that major corporations pay their share of taxes in this country.
Oral Questions
2:15 p.m.
Stéphane Dion Leader of the Opposition
Mr. Speaker, the overwhelming majority of experts and business leaders asked the Prime Minister to say that to his Minister of Finance.
Allan Lanthier said, "The single most misguided policy I have seen out of Ottawa in 35 years".
Nancy Hughes-Anthony said, "It's a real step in the wrong direction".
The chief executive of the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan said, "I cannot believe any sensible person would do this".
Will the Prime Minister stop working for Wall Street and abandon this harmful policy right now?
Oral Questions
2:15 p.m.
Calgary Southwest
Stephen Harper Prime Minister
Mr. Speaker, it is interesting that the only taxes the Leader of the Opposition ever complains about are taxes on big business.
The Minister of Finance announced the framework in the budget. He will shortly be announcing the details of that policy.
Let me assure the Leader of the Opposition and all members of the House that the Minister of Finance will continue to make sure that Canadian industry is competitive, as it is, and at the same time make sure that all companies, including big companies, pay their fair share of tax in this country.
Oral Questions
2:20 p.m.
Stéphane Dion Leader of the Opposition
Yes, Mr. Speaker, it is a matter of fair share. American, Japanese and European companies benefit from interest deductibility.
Why is the Prime Minister giving the green light to foreigners taking over companies in Canada and the red light to Canadian companies trying to win abroad?
Why does the Prime Minister not understand that in penalizing Canadian companies, he is hurting Canadian jobs, families and workers?
Oral Questions
2:20 p.m.
Jim Flaherty Minister of Finance
Mr. Speaker, in the budget we said that we would crack down on corporations that use tax havens. We said we would improve information agreements with other countries. We said we would provide more resources to the Canada Revenue Agency to strengthen its audit and enforcement activities.
I hear from the Leader of the Opposition today that he is against those steps. In 2005 when he was revenue critic, the finance critic for the Liberals said this:
I am committed to ensuring a level playing field for all Canadians, and that is why I take the issue of tax havens seriously.
He just--

The hon. member for Etobicoke—Lakeshore.


text: Officialy got under way this past weekend. Excellent start for Chelsea, torn Portsmouth a new one from start to finish. Deco was excellent. Arsenal were decent but should have had more than the one goal, United had a patched up team and were frustrated by Newcastle. Newcastle should have had a penalty aswell but once again the ref doesn't have the balls to give one at United, in particular one of their fans Mike Riley. We were poor but still ground out a result. Keane needs to settle down and it will come but he's never a 20 million pound player. Can't wait till Mascherano and Babel come back.

Hi Christian, Raffaele Vassallo who used to work with Stefano Ferrara uses unistara STARMAX firebricks in his oven. Quality: alumina <35%Refractory brick pressed dry and is widely used in the production of fireplaces, grills and barbecues. Available in two colors.chemical composition Al2O3 + TiO2 [%]: 19-21 Fe2O3 [%]: 1.5physical Properties Bulk density [kg/dm3]: 1,850 Apparent Porosity [%]: 20 Resistance to cold compression [kg/cm2]: 320 Refractoriness under load [° C]: 1210
Not only does vacuum forming increase the density it also decreases the size of the pores.
This is true, but there is little to no knowledge of Neapolitan ovens there, and little to no knowledge of the importance of thermal conductivity for the floor there. If you want to build a Pompeii style SUV of an oven it is a great place, but if you want to build an oven to cook 60 second Neapolitan pizza there is a bit of a knowledge gap there.
Bonjour Monsieur, Voici des valeurs typiques de conductivité thermique pour des réfractaires denses silico-alumineux (température °C/lambda en W/K.m) : 30% Al2O3 : 200°/1.15 ; 600°/1.25 ; 1000°/1.340% Al2O3 : 200°/1.20 ; 600°/1.3 ; 1000°/1.3560% Al2O3 : 600°/1.6 ; 1000°/1.65
I guess this forgoes the whole concept of the floor being a heat sink doesn't it?
But these are in the dome, he is using Biscotto for the floor. The conductivity of the dome is irrelevant since it doesn't transfer heat to the pizza by conduction.
I don't know who else you can contact for the biscotto
Great find Nachtwacht. Wanneer vertrekken we?
Thermal conductivity 1,0 x 10-5 m/mK
Sub, earlier you posted the link to aversaforni who seem to be the manufacturers of biscotto, is Izzoforni a different manufacturer or is their another reason to pass through them?
Finally, please note that by direct observation, owner comments, and most importantly suppliers direct info, many of these people above do not use the Biscotto di Sorrento (used at Forno Napoletano) which cost 8 times more of the cheaper alternatives, and does indeed have unique properties, however is produced in such low quantities and with Long ead times that is impossible to produce hundreds of ovens in a year or two.
Nachtwacht, it says on their website, I gather that would be a bit high?
Looking good!
