With only two weeks left in the 2013 regular season, the New York Mets are not going to the playoffs. The team looked a whole lot more competitive a few weeks ago, but the last month of action has exposed some of the team's uglier flaws for all to see. With the team awaiting word on whether Matt Harvey will need to undergo Tommy John surgery, it remains to be seen if Harvey will be a part of the 2014 mix. Either way, General Manager Sandy Alderson faces a critical winter to fix the 2014 Mets. Here are some of the biggest issues Alderson will face.
1. Addressing the Outfield
The outfield was expected to be one of the worst areas for the Mets coming into the 2013 season. That quickly changed. Marlon Byrd, who was signed off the scrap heap, had a career year and won the right field job while midseason acquisition Eric Young Jr took over the left field job and lead off spot, providing instant energy for the Mets. Center, which started off as a platoon between Collin Cowgill and Kirk Nieuwenhuis, now rests in the defensively gifted hands of Juan Lagares and Matt den Dekker. From late May until early August, the outfield was a definitive strength for the Mets.
Going forward, however, Alderson will need to upgrade his outfield again. Byrd was traded away before the end of August, opening up right field again. Young has come back to Earth after a very hot start, giving credence to the Mets' belief that he will be best served as a fourth outfielder next season. Lagares and den Dekker, while gifted defensively, both need to show they can hit enough to justify playing every day in a major league lineup.
The Mets need to pick up at least one, if not two, major league caliber outfielders in the offseason. The Mets can likely live with a platoon of den Dekker and Lagares in center field, but if they intend to go with Young as the everyday left fielder they will need to make up for the lack of power production somewhere else, like first base. Shin Soo Choo has been mentioned as a likely Mets' target, and he could easily slot into right field and bat leadoff. Choo is a free agent, and the Mets will need to pay up if they want to acquire his services. The Mets will also delve into the trade market for another outfielder, but a lot will depend on the cost in terms of prospects.
2. Add a Veteran Starting Pitcher
The starting rotation looked to be set for 2014 a month ago, but Harvey's murky injury status changes that. Even if Harvey gets unexpected good news and is able to pitch in 2014, the Mets would handle him and fellow starters Zack Wheeler and Jenrry Mejia with kid gloves. Innings limits appear in the coming for any of the Mets' young pitchers, so the Mets will definitely need a veteran starting pitcher to fill the gaps and get them through the 2014 campaign.
The Mets likely won't look for a multi-year commitment for a starting pitcher considering the depth the organization has on the farm, so look for the Mets to target high-upside starters on one year contracts. One name that has gotten some buzz of late is San Francisco Giants' pitcher Tim Lincecum. Lincecum is 10-13 with a 4.40 ERA this season and is eligible for free agency after the season, and the Giants may not bring him back given his struggles this season. Lincecum would likely seek a one year deal somewhere to re-establish his value and enter the market again in the following offseason, so a pairing between him and the Mets would make sense.
Another name who could make sense and come cheaper is New York Yankees' pitcher Phil Hughes. Hughes has had a miserable season with the Yanks, going 4-13 with a 5.07 ERA, and will likely be let go as the Yankees try and get their payroll under the 189 million mark. Hughes' poor performance has hurt his free agent value, but his biggest problem by far has been the long ball. Hughes has given up 58 home runs over the last two seasons playing in the band box that is Yankee Stadium, and a move to the pitcher friendly National League could benefit him. Hughes could end up on the West Coast with San Francisco or San Diego, but expect the Mets to at least do their due diligence on him. Other options include the cheap one year veteran pool such as Bruce Chen, Dan Haren, John Lannan, Paul Maholm, and Barry Zito.
3. Figure Out a Direction for First Base and Shortstop
Coming into 2013, many Mets fans assumed that they had their first baseman and shortstop of the future in Ike Davis and Ruben Tejada. That changed quickly. Davis had a lost season, getting off to a slow start again and getting demoted to the minor leagues for three weeks in June. Davis rebounded slightly upon his return before having his season ended early with an oblique injury. Davis finished the 2013 season batting .205 with nine home runs and 33 RBI's, a far cry from the 32 home runs and 90 RBI's of a year ago.
Ruben Tejada was also coming off a strong 2012, but he found his way into Sandy Alderson's doghouse very quickly. Tejada showed up to camp out of shape and got off to a terrible start at the plate before hurting his quad in late May. When Tejada recovered, the Mets quietly shipped him off to Triple-A Las Vegas and didn't bring him back until after the Triple-A playoffs concluded. Tejada, who is hitting only .198 on the season, has been publicly criticized by Alderson for not doing the extra work necessary to improve his game.
The Mets clearly need to solve both spots externally. The internal options at first, Lucas Duda (.239, 14, 31) and Josh Satin (.272, 2, 12) are not confidence builders, and the Mets will need to decide whether to tender Davis a new contract. Davis made 3.1 million dollars this year and is due for a raise in arbitration, so he could price himself out of the Mets' plans. Alderson has indicated he is willing to give Davis another chance, but it could be his last one.
Tejada, on the other hand, appears to be in deep trouble this winter. His replacement, Omar Quintanilla (.226, 2, 21) didn't set the world on fire but was never in jeopardy of losing the job to Tejada. The Mets' internal options at shortstop (prospects Wilfredo Tovar, Phillip Evans, and Gavin Cecchini) are at least a full year away from contributing. Unless Tejada goes on a tear the last two weeks, the odds are that the Mets will look to add a free agent at short and go with Quintanilla and Justin Turner as backup infielders. One potential target for the Mets could be Stephen Drew, who should be let go as the Boston Red Sox will need a spot for top prospect Xander Bogaerts to play. They may face competition for his services from the Yankees, who could look to pick up a caddy for injured 40 year old Derek Jeter and with Alex Rodriguez facing a steroid suspension.
4. Preserve the Bullpen
One of the pleasant surprises for the Mets this season has been their bullpen, which hasn't been a human gas can like previous years. Bobby Parnell emerged as a capable closer before having his season ended by a neck injury, solving a problem area for the Mets. The Mets also have some capable young arms (Jeurys Familia, Josh Edgin, Vic Black) who could all factor into the equation next season.
The Mets also have some veteran pieces they should strongly consider re-signing. LaTroy Hawkins has had a strong year at age 40 and does not appear to be considering retirement. Hawkins has been a very good influence on the team's young relievers, so if he is willing to return the Mets should bring him back. The Mets could also re-sign one of their veteran lefties, Pedro Feliciano and Tim Byrdak, to provide organizational depth behind Edgin and Scott Rice.
Assuming the Mets keep Parnell, Hawkins, Familia, Edgin, Black, and Rice, the Mets may have most of their bullpen addressed before hitting the market. This group has been one of the few positives for the Mets this season, so it makes sense to keep as many of the pieces together as possible.
5. Spend Money
This may be the most important item on the list. The Mets do not have much help on the horizon in the farm system next season, but they will finally have money to spend in the offseason. The Mets will be done paying Johan Santana and Jason Bay after this season, and they have only 33.5 million dollars committed to payroll at this moment. If you factor in about another 12 million dollars or so for arbitration raises, the Mets would have about 45 million dollars of payroll before even hitting the free agent market.
The Mets have long pointed to 2014 as the year they would make major reinvestments in their major league payroll. Alderson and CEO Jeff Wilpon have both said the Mets have the ability to add money to their payroll next season. If they would like to see fans in the ballpark next season, they need to actually spend the money and not just say they will.
The Mets essentially have played with a small market caliber roster the last three seasons due to a lack of production from players being paid a lot of money. There are options all over the free agent and trade markets to address their needs, but many fans are concerned that the injury to Harvey may give the Mets an excuse to cheap out and punt 2014 as well. If the Mets try and cheap out again, their fans will let them know about it through their wallets.
While the injury to Harvey is a setback, it should not be the only reason the Mets stop trying to improve the ballclub. Alderson indicated he had the resources to make a move last winter, and then sat on his hands and watched impact players sign elsewhere. While he did not feel the contracts these players received were worth it, the Mets will simply have to pay up if they want to attract a free agent hitter to their team. The Mets also should finish with one of the ten worst records in baseball, so they won't have to hide behind the excuse of losing a first round draft pick for signing a premier free agent.
Simply put, Alderson and the Mets need to put up or shut up. The Mets have talked about how this winter they can add pieces to the team if they need them. Their talk is the same as this article, but we don't have the checkbook to make any of these acquisitions happen. The Mets need to put their money where their mouth is, otherwise the fan base will feel deceived and start going to Citi Field even less than they have over the last five years. While Alderson has done a great job reviving the team's farm system, he needs to show he can make the big ticket acquisition to help turn the major league roster into a playoff contender.
Your man cave is your home field advantage for every game.

Happy Birthday, Kitty!
4 comments:
Hi Marj,ReplyDelete
Firstly many thanks for your yelp on the hocus locus cake.. It came out well. Have been trying to upload a picture to show you... But it doesn't seem to allow it!!
Love all your creations:)
Could you please tell me how did you model this Hello kitty? Is it gum paste of fondant?
Do you start with the face? Then pink arms and then the red dress? Please advs? Do you put a stick through it?
Are all the flowers fondant?
Many thanks
Are both the tiers in buttercream?ReplyDelete
Are the green stalks fondant? How many days in advance did you make them?
Was there a particular way in which you put the strips on the bottom tier?
Thanks a ton Marj.
Hi, ruchi! I always start my figure models from the bottom and work up to the head and I do use a skewer to support the figure. This kitty was all fondant and gumpaste - I mix them together about half and half. The flowers and letters were all fondant too and the stems had wires iside to support them. I make everything a day or two ahead so it is hardened up nicely when I put it on the cake. You can always email me a picture of your cake at mpjenkins5 at gmail.com. (I have to write it out that way so I don't get robo-spammed!)ReplyDelete
Happy caking!
Oh, and yes, both tiers were buttercream. I find that fondant strips like that stick really well to room temperature buttercream. I just smooth them on with a light hand!ReplyDelete

Serves 2
Cuban sandwich shops make these sandwiches using a sandwich iron. This technique, adapted from the Joy of Cooking, allows home cooks to create the same effect in an oven, using two cast iron skillets. If you have an electric grill with two flat, heavy hinged cooking surfaces, you can use that as well.
1 loaf Cuban bread or French bread (about 10 to 12 inches long)
Butter, softened
Whole-grain mustard
4 ounces thinly sliced ham
4 ounces thinly sliced roast pork
4 ounces thinly sliced Swiss cheese
Sliced dill pickles
Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Slice the bread lengthwise. Generously butter one side, and spread mustard to taste on the other. Over the buttered half, layer on the meats, cheese and pickles. Top with the mustard-coated bread. Slice the loaf in half to make 2 sandwiches. Wrap each sandwich tightly in aluminum foil. Place sandwiches in a large cast-iron skillet and weight them down with another cast-iron skillet, or other heavy, oven-proof pan. Bake until the cheese melts, about 20 minutes. Unwrap and serve (careful: they're hot!).

I would agree Godel's theorem's do not explain the steep learning curve for Mathematica. I believe the steep learning curve for Mathematica is due to the richness of the tool set made available.

But Godel's theorems were statements about mathematics. And Mathematica is clearly intended to encompass mathematics, to allow the user to do any valid mathematics. Consequently, Mathematica must either inherit any inconsistencies existing in mathematics or restrict the user from performing certain mathematics.

Bearcats Take Over in Fourth Quarter
September 21, 2013
OXFORD, Ohio (AP) - Hosey Williams' 1-yard touchdown run broke a scoreless tie with 4:55 to go and Cincinnati beat Miami of Ohio 14-0 on Saturday for its eighth-straight win in the rivalry.
Cincinnati (3-1) put together a 16-play drive that culminated in Williams' score. Quarterback Brendon Kay ran through a tackle to convert a third-down play and set up the touchdown.
After an interception, Kay went 1 yard on a keeper to put it away with 2:05 left.
Miami (0-3) managed 1 net yard in the second half. The RedHawks' best play was Zak Murphy's school-record 84-yard punt in the second quarter.

President Obama stepped directly into sensitive budget negotiations today, inviting key members of Congress to the White House to a meeting on Tuesday, three days before the government is scheduled to run out of money.
"The president will urge leaders to reach final agreement and avoid a government shutdown that would be harmful to our economic recovery," said White House spokesman Jay Carney.
A spokesman for one key participant -- House Speaker John Boehner -- said the House Republican wants to "discuss the need to keep the government open while making real cuts in spending, and we're working with the White House to schedule that meeting."
In addition to Boehner, Obama also invited Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Neva., to the White House. The guest list also includes the chairs of two key appropriations chairmen, Sen. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii, and Rep. Hal Rogers, R-Ky.
The continuing resolution that is funding the government runs out Friday; the government will shut down -- save for "essential personnel" -- unless Obama and lawmakers can strike a new budget deal.
That won't be so say -- Obama and House Republicans disagree on a starting dollar figure for talks, and even whether one exists.
"The president has made clear that we all understand the need to cut spending, and significant progress has been made in agreeing that we can all work off the same number, $73 billion in spending cuts in this year alone," Carney said.
The Boehner spokesman, Brendan Buck, said no $73 billion figure has been agreed to.
"There is no deal or agreement on a final number, and (Boehner) will continue to push for the largest possible spending cuts," Buck said.
Budget analysts point out that $73 billion figure includes items that have been approved by Congress; the cuts from an actual budget are close to $33 billion -- a number Boehner cited in a statement claiming that Democrats "are just not serious yet about enacting real spending cuts."
"Many of the cuts that the White House and Senate Democrats are talking about are full of smoke and mirrors," Boehner said.

Moving Tips And Checklists
Moving might not exactly be fun but it can go smoothly if you do a little planning.
Cupertino is a mid-sized city in Santa Clara County, California that's most recognizable as the home to the worldwide headquarters of Apple, Inc. At the heart of Silicon Valley, Cupertino is predominantly white-collar with a very high percentage of its residents involved in the computer industry. A safe and well-rounded city, Cupertino welcomes many new residents every year and while its housing is dominated by single family detached houses, there is still a nice selection of apartments to choose from in the city for those looking to rent. If you're moving to Cupertino, find Cupertino moving companies and California moving companies at Moving.com.
Cupertino is home to many high-tech companies, many of which form the foundation for the city's strong economy. Top employers include Apple, Inc., Symantec, Oracle, Hewlett-Packard and ArcSight. While the high-tech sector is definitely the driving force in this town, the local rock quarry and cement plant is also one of the area's top employers.
Cupertino, for all of its high-tech focus, still provides those who live here with the quaint comfort of small town America. All year long the city hosts a wide array of festivals and events to bolster the community feeling. Favorite events include the Cherry Blossom Festival in April, the Summer Concert Series in June, the West Valley Community Annual Barbeque, the Cupertino Fall Festival and the Diwali Festival among many others.
The city also places a high priority on the arts, with numerous public displays and grants available to individuals and groups.
Residents who live in Cupertino get to take advantage of the peace and quiet of this lovely suburban setting while also having the benefit of being just minutes from San Jose and everything that city has to offer in terms of culture, entertainment and recreation.
Cupertino is divided up into nine constituent neighborhoods, although each one is affluent in its own right. Thanks to the lucrative nature of Silicon Valley, Cupertino enjoys a very good economy and higher than average income levels, which parlay into higher than average rental prices when compared to state and national levels.
Nestled up alongside million dollar estates, luxury apartments can be found in each of the city's nine neighborhoods; however, your best chance for finding something truly opulent lies in the western part of the city around Stevens Canyon Road, Regnart Road, Bubb Road and the neighborhood of Monta Vista.
As you make your way eastward through Cupertino, the apartment rates gradually decline with the area around Stevens Creek Boulevard, Homestead Road and the neighborhood of Rancho Rinconada being home to some of the more affordable apartments in the city.

Things to check on delivery
Much of the list has been gleaned from the experiences of others on the forum, in addition to what we found on ours.
Credit to everyone who has posted their findings from their vehicles.
1. Paint bubbles on inner lip of front fender under the hood. Need to assess level of paint coverage/bubbling and decide if a sand/touch up is necessary
2. Spring clips under hood to the left and right of hood latch might need to be seated.
3. Check all underhood connections (vertrkr had one for the electric power steering loose - pics here - http://www.jeepgarage.org/f177/items...rol-65700.html)
4. Inspect joint tape seams around tailgate (when open) to ensure there are no gaps to the body
5. Inspect interior trim around A-pillars to ensure they are uniformly flush with the surrounding trim
6. Inspect trim cap at rear of interior ceiling and rear glass for uniformity of installation
7. Check that all outside door handles are properly mounted to door panel
8. Inspect paint in daylight for any defects or imperfections. Keep in mind that you have to decide what is acceptable if any issues are found.
9. Confirm appropriate tire pressure in all 4 tires. Tire pressure is on the tag on the drivers door jamb (18" is 36 psi all around)
10. Body panel alignment and fit
11. Test drive the vehicle and listen with the radio off. Does anything sound amiss?
12. Battery contacts tight (ask them to show you where the battery is if you don't know).
More to come...
Re: Things to check on delivery
Great list!
I would also add:
* Test drive at highway speed to assess if there are any wheel vibrations.
I have read several grand Cherokee owners having to either get tires rebalanced or even replaced due to the odd defective tire (20 inches Goodyear forteras). In fact I have test driven one grand Cherokee that had noticeable tire vibration at speed myself.
Re: Things to check on delivery
I really love this shop, they have all the latest Hunter equipment and I have become friendly with the owner where we work together road force balancing and aligning. I've learned a bit working with him over the years.
I wonder if the factory does a matched road force balance. These machines will tell you which location each wheel should be mounted after it's done checking all four to get the best tracking as each tire will have an inherent tendency to pull left of right.
If you ever have balance/alignment problems, use this site to find a shop that has a Hunter GSP9700 with StraightTrak:

Thanks again, and any updates on your vehicle's delivery?
My dealer is expecting delivery today but I'm skeptical. Still, I am hoping to pick it up Friday. Thankfully it's 0% through next Monday. My fear with the 199-inch Durango (which "goes on for inches" ala Ron Burgundy) is fewer parallel parking spots in Manhattan as if there were any anyway.
Re: Things to check on delivery
Parsec, Great job putting this list together. I think item 13 was determined to be the transmission coolant line, not oil. Either way it should be connected. Good luck this week with your D.

Q. Our company is looking to revise and update its employee handbook. This will be the first update in several years. Is there anything specific that we should focus on to make sure that we are up-to-date?
A. It's good that you are updating your employee handbook. Typically, we recommend that employers update their handbooks at least every three years, and make sure the revision date is clearly stated in the handbook itself.
Because each company is different, it's difficult to state what any individual handbook should include. Nevertheless, all handbooks should include the following:
- A statement that, unless otherwise specified, all employees are considered at-will. Of course, in a unionized environment, one or more groups of employees are subject to specific bargaining agreements. Nevertheless, there should be an at-will statement covering the rest of the work force.
- A workplace harassment policy. While the policy should specify that while law prohibits harassment and discrimination on the basis of protected categories (i.e., age, race, sex, etc.), company policy prohibits all forms of workplace harassment.
- If your company has at least 50 employees, you must include an up-to-date FMLA policy. Make sure this policy includes the recent changes to the FMLA, including the caregiver and active-duty military family leave provisions.

Power up: Porsche Cars Australia has its eyes on Porsche's new electric vehicle based on the Mission E concept revealed at the 2015 Frankfurt motor show.
11 February 2016
By RON HAMMERTON
TRUE to its mantra of under-promise and over-deliver, Porsche can be expected
to wheel out an all-electric production Tesla rival that is even more potent
and more practical than the Mission E concept, that the German luxury
sportscar-maker unveiled at last September's Frankfurt motor show.
With a driving range of more than 500km, 440kW of power, zero-to-100km/h sprint
time of less than 3.5 seconds and an 80 per cent battery charge time of just 15
minutes on a fast charger, the Mission E concept sedan already looks sharp.
But Porsche Cars Australia (PCA) public relations director Paul Ellis said he
would not be surprised if the final production version - due by the end of the
decade - exceeded those target figures.
"By the way that technology is evolving, we should be able to meet and possibly
exceed that," Mr Ellis said at this week's Porsche 911 Carrera facelift launch
in Tasmania.
Mr Ellis also confirmed that PCA will have its hand up for the vehicle for
Australian sale once it goes into mass production, possibly in three years.
"Absolutely," he said. "We are assuming it will go into right-hand drive
The limited-edition hybrid 918 Spyder - holder of the fastest lap of Germany's
Nurburgring - was not made in RHD and so never made it here, but the new EV is
expected to be a global vehicle.
While the final name of the production version is yet to be confirmed, Porsche
has stated that a vehicle based on the Mission E will go into production at its
Stuttgart plant by the end of the decade, creating 1000 jobs.
The factory is set to get a €700m ($A1b) expansion and renovation to make the
new electric motors - two per vehicle - and new-age bespoke EV platform
developed in-house by Porsche.
Britain's Autocar reports that development of the vehicle has started
under the code name J1.
The concept, sporting familiar Porsche design cues, is a four-door four-seater
with rear-opening "suicide" doors for back-seat access.
Performance wise, it is hard to see Porsche giving away any advantage to Tesla,
whose current Model S - in 90kWh P90D flagship guise - boasts 568kW of power, a
supercar-like 0-100km/h sprint time of just 2.8 seconds and a top speed of
249km/h in Ludicrous mode.
Coincidentally, that 0-100km/h time is about the same as Porsche's hybrid 918
The Porsche Mission E apparently can be charged to 80 per cent battery capacity
in 15 minutes on a high-voltage charger, while the Tesla S takes 30 minutes.
The Tesla's range is up to 430km on the American EPA test cycle, while Porsche
is promising "at least" 500km.
Engineers working in the electric vehicle industry estimate battery performance
has been improving about 8.0 per cent a year, while 'light-weighting' advances
and electric motor gains also could contribute to Porsche's first EV.
Porsche promises a wireless charging option with induction loop technology
available for installation in an owner's garage.

Reminiscence of Jian River

Hanging scroll: ink and color on paper
Without mounting: 125.3 x 47.1 cm (49 5/16 x 18 9/16 in.), with mounting: 259.1 x 62.4 cm (102 x 24 9/16 in.), rolled: 5.4 x 62.39 x 6.35 cm (2 1/8 x 24 9/16 x 2 1/2 in.)

Dong Qichang constructed this landscape around a powerful sense of movement that begins with the twisted evergreen that dominates the foreground and thrusts upward into the conical hills above. The pronounced diagonal slope of the hills, trees, and buildings at the upper left provides a dynamic counterforce to the vertical composition. This contrast—vertical against diagonal, straight against twisted—is continued throughout the composition and seems to reflect a long-standing involvement with a constructivist approach to landscape that Dong derived from Huang Gongwang, a Yuan dynasty master. Dong's forceful landscape paintings were paralleled by equally forceful critical writings on art, allowing him to dominate the history of later Chinese painting.

In Hinduism, Saraswati is the goddess of knowledge, music, arts and science. She is the consort of Brahma, also revered as his Shakti.
Saraswati is known as a guardian deity in Buddhism who upholds the teachings of Gautama Buddha by offering protection and assistance to practitioners.
According to write Sailen Debnath, "Saraswati is the Goddess of learning; and the meaning of the goddess in association of all the symbols with her signifies that if a learner really understands and pursues the connotative and denotative meaning of the goddess, he or she can easily advance in acquiring knowledge. The realization of the Goddess makes the learner ready to embark on the world of knowledge and wisdom.Debneth identifies seven primary characteristics and symbols of the goddess that relate to her role as a goddess of knowledge.
1) Saraswati is the goddess of learning, and not a god; and this feminine aspect signifies creativity, as a woman can originate a human being in her womb.
2) White colour of the goddess signifies spotless character and immaculate mind.
3) Seated on an inverted white lotus meaning to be in search of the light of knowledge.
4) White swan is the vehicle of the goddess; and this is indicative of inquisitiveness.
5) The Goddess is playing the lyre; and this signifies harmony of all mental strings, agencies and attitudes.
6) The goddess is worshipped with Palash, a red odourless flower; and this symbol is indicative of being free from putrefied preconceptions.
7) Inkpot with pen and books as symbols.
The wallpaper has been created with beautiful Box2D Physics animations. Since the wallpaper has images of Gods, thus it will always remind you that we must follow the Gods principles and motivates us to do good things and avoid bad things, thus it keeps our mind and body in healthy state.The whole view is enchanting and takes us into the world of pure spiritual love.

Trane XR12 1.5 ton-Too small for my house?
We are entering the second summer in our house and I'm starting to wonder if our AC unit is undersized. Usually we try to not let the house get too warm in the first place by keeping the shades down and turning the air conditioning on in the late morning when the house is about 70 degrees. In order to keep the house at 70 though the unit seems to run continuously. Recently we had a family gathering and with lots of people in the house we couldn't get the temperature down from 74.
As stated in the title the unit is a Trane XR12 (build date 1/2003) 1.5 ton as verified by dividing the 7th and 8th digits of the model number (18) by 12. The house is a simple rectangular ranch, about 1100 square feet with 8 foot ceilings, 2x4 walls with fiberglass insulation (no idea on the R-rating), 6" of fiberglass insulation in the ceilings, fairly new vinyl windows, one picture window with a wooden frame that's a bit drafty, and three exterior doors that are a bit drafty. The house was built in the mid-60s with forced air oil heat so the AC uses the existing ductwork. The coil sits at one end of the house and feeds into the trunkline which runs the length of the house (about 45 feet) with 6" delivery ducts branching off. We have attic fans but ventilating the roof doesn't seem to help. To address the obvious we change the filter religiously every 30 days due to allergies. Finally, the rear of the house faces directly south. There are only 3 south facing windows, but we don't have any shade so the rear roof (simple a-frame) and rear wall get a lot of sun. So, given all of that, does it sound like my unit is undersized? If so, how much will it help to tighten up the house, add insulation, etc...?
I would guess that the a/c unit is not keeping up with the heat gain. You will probably want to put money into insulation as it will benefit you greatly in the heating season as well as cooling. It is not uncommon to have 30+ inches of fiberglass in the attic. Six inch insulation is generally what you would use in exterior walls. Adding insulation and tightening your house up will probably cure your cooling issues. 1.5 tons should be adequate to cool that size of a house. You may also have a refrigerant charge that is adequate which will need to be checked by a competent tech..
I'm wondering if you live in the hot south like me. I just replaced AC's at my house and had done a lot of research on this subject. The Trane might be a variable speed model. Have someone hopefully honest to check dip switches, pressure check, duct seals, vents, whatever you can think of! And these new thermostates can be trickey too. If all that checks out, insulate insulate, insulate. Try a radiant barrier. The foil not the spray. And make sure your attic is vented. When it's in the upper 90's to 100 you can only hope to be around 76 inside probably.
I have a old home too
one thing I found that help me was I had single glass window I put new window in with 2 glass and the gas in them or you can use storm window they will help some I have used them before
replace the rubber around the doors and under the doors it is a cheap fix
with the fan in the attic make sure that it is getting air from out side or it will pull the cold air from in the house and make your a/c work harder
I put a vent on the other end of my house to make sure that air flow was good
one last thing I did that helped is plant a tree on the south side of your home it will take some time to help but in time it will
best of luck
From the limited information you have given it is impossible to tell if that unit can handle your house, but given your homes age and other things you said it could be a little small. But that is simply a wag. The best way to model your heat gain is with a Manual J using a program such as HVAC-CALC. For the price you can model your heat gain given your locale and other factors. I would also have a pro come in and verify your system is running at peak efficiency. Be sure they check the delta T across your indoor coil.
Let us know what you find and we can make some recommendations from there.
Coil leak
I had the same problem this summer. When I had a tech come and check my unit out he found a small crack in the coil in the XR12 unit itself. He said that the vibration of the XR12 caused the coil to vibrate and rub on a grommet that that wore down. That wear has caused a small leak of coolant.
Apparently my XR12 is still under warranty and the part will be free from Trane. However, I have to pay a delivery fee of $75.00 and $500 to a technician to install the coil and recharge the coolant.
In the meantime the technician recharged my coolant and that helped to get the house cooler in the hot months.
hey one more thing if you put in a new ac go and buy if your self do not let the ac man get for you let him tell you what you need and go get it your self save about 3 to 4 hundred $ you can get it because it has no freon in it but the ac man marks it up to make money pleas no email from the ac man thank you we all trying to get by in this world that is why we are on DIY
A. New A/C units do indeed contain refrigerant.
B. Purchasing an A/C and having a contractor install it for you, is NOT DIY. Its providing your own equipment, and loosing labor warranty(not always a big deal). But that is not the definition of DIY.
As posted earlier. Improve your attic insulation.
If you have powered attic fans. Seal your attic access(access tent), and make sure you have enough vents in the attic. That those fans don't draw air from the house. And cause even more fresh unconditioned air to enter your home.
Sealing your doors, windows, along with receps and switches, will help a lot.
1.5 tons is probably the correct size.
A/Cs are not sized to handle a large gathering of people. That may only occur once in a while.
Depending on activity of those people, you add anywhere from 450 to over 1000 BTUs per person.

No work around as far as I'm aware to get those to work. 2.) Have crossover games, allowing Windows games through wine. 3.) Install Steam and Wolfenstein. 4.) Game loads up, changed some visual settings, now this.. I do not want to buy a crossover games license until I know that this can work, since it's about the only game I would use it for. I can't post on their help forums unless I am registered. (have purchased it) Any ideas of how to fix?? I understand this requires some Windows knowledge as well, but there are plenty here that know Windows like the back of their hand too.

text: Sherlock fans are officially record-breaking 443 fans dressed up as Arthur Conan-Doyle's super detective last weekend to land a Guinness World Record... ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW By Susanna Lazarus Monday 1 September 2014 at 2:52PM How do you become a Guinness World Record holder? It's Elementary, my dear Watson. One simply dresses as Sherlock Holmes, joins over four hundred others and descends upon Temple Newsam near Leeds. That's exactly what happened yesterday when 443 fans of Arthur Conan Doyle's super sleuth donned their deerstalkers and set a record for the most people dressed like the world-famous detective, as played in the BBC1 series Sherlock by Benedict Cumberbatch. The event easily surpassed the 250 fans required to land an official Guinness World Record, as each participant paid £15 to receive a pipe, magnifying glass and replica of Sherlock's iconic tweed hat. All funds raised from the bid were donated to the Leeds Teaching Hospitals to contribute towards a new Yorkshire Brain Research Centre. The centre's appeal director, Clair Challenor-Chadwick, said, "Sherlock was the perfect fit for brain research as the brainiest detective of all time was born in Yorkshire. He helped us raise awareness of this much under-funded area to help patients with dementia, epilepsy, Parkinson's and MS." Supporters and Sherlock fans are being encouraged to TEXT BRAIN to 88811 to donate £5 and nominate a friend to take part in a #sherlockselfie. Sherlock creator Steven Moffat and his wife and TV producer Sue Vertue were unable to attend after returning from the Emmys (where Sherlock won seven awards) but the pair sent in a special video message for fans. They also donated a script from BBC's Sherlock signed by all the cast to be awarded to the best-dressed attendee. The event was hosted by actor and comedian Neil Grainger who took to Twitter to share a snap of his record-breaking Sherlocks... We did it! We broke the record!!!! Well done everyone who helped make it happen @sherlockrecord #sherlockselfie pic.twitter.com/MqTxtyafio — Neil Grainger (@GraingerNeil) August 31, 2014 continue reading

DECATUR, Ala. — Bassmaster Elite Series pro Charlie Hartley of Grove City, Ohio, qualified Saturday for the 2008 Bassmaster Classic — his first — along with two-time Classic qualifier Todd Auten of Lake Wylie, S.C., and Bobby Lane of Lakeland, Fla., who will join his brother, Chris, in the Classic field.
Hartley, Auten and Lane qualified through the Bassmaster Southern Open circuit for the Feb. 22–24 Classic on South Carolina's Lake Hartwell. The three pros finished first, second and third, respectively, in the season-long points race, which ended Saturday at the Open's final 2007 event on Alabama's Wheeler Lake out of Decatur.
Points-race winner Hartley entered the Wheeler event in second, thanks to his third-place finish at the Kissimmee Southern Open in March and his second at the Santee Cooper event in May. With a solid 13th-place finish in Alabama, he skated to the win by a 27-point margin.
"It's wonderful. Points winner is a great title to have on my resume — and I'm going to the Classic, a lifetime dream," said the 43-year-old Hartley, a veteran Elite pro who's been competing in BASS events since 1996. "I fished my first bass tournament when I was 8 years old, so I'll be the proudest person there."
He said he felt the turning point in his Classic bid was on the second day of the Wheeler competition.
"With about 15 minutes to go, I ran up to a dock and caught a really big fish, and I thought at the time that I might've made the Classic with that fish," he said.
Auten, 41, a two-time Classic qualifier has scored a 13th-place finish in 2003 and a 34th in 1999 at fishing's most major event.
"I feel good, but of course I wanted to win the points," said Auten, who also finished second at the Wheeler tournament. "I can't wait for the Classic. Lake Hartwell is only two hours from my house. It's a great fishery, and I've done well in the past there."
Lane, 33, will be competing in his first Classic alongside his brother, Elite Series pro Chris Lane of Winter Haven, Fla., who qualified on the strength of his position in the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year Standings.
"I'm very excited to see Chris in there, and I know he is to see me there," said Lane, who's about a year older than his brother. "But I was nervous today. My nerves haven't been this racked in three years. But I made the Classic, qualified for the Elites, so life's good."
Only seven of the 50 Classic contenders are yet to be determined. Six will be BASS Federation Nation anglers who will qualify through their championship, Nov. 8–10 on Florida's Lake Tohopekaliga, an event that will air on ESPN2 at 9 a.m. ET, Feb. 16, 2008.
The 50th Classic qualifier will be the winner of the Nov. 14–17 championship of the Bassmaster Weekend Series Operated by American Bass Anglers. That tournament will be on Georgia's Clarks Hill Lake.
Elite Series Qualifiers
In addition to their Classic berths, Hartley, Auten and Lane earned eligibility next year for the top level of competitive bass fishing, the Bassmaster Elite Series.
Hartley qualified in September through the Elite Series, but he now takes his eligibility through the Southern Open. Auten and Lane secured first-year Elite status.
Also receiving an invitation to join the Elite Series was the fourth-place finisher in the points race: Mark Davis, 44, of Mount Ida, Ark. Davis is a three-time Bassmaster Angler of the Year (1995, 1998 and 2001); he also won the 1995 Classic.
Elite Series pro Terry Scroggins, 38 of San Mateo, Fla., took the fifth Southern Open Elite spot. Already qualified for the '08 Elite Series, Scroggins' eligibility now channels through the Open instead of through the Elite Series.
DECATUR, Ala. — Bassmaster Elite Series pro Charlie Hartley of Grove City, Ohio, qualified Saturday for the 2008 Bassmaster Classic — his first — along with two-time Classic qualifier Todd Auten of Lake Wylie, S.C., and Bobby Lane of Lakeland, Fla., who will join his brother, Chris, in the Classic field.

Whooping cough vaccine

Not sure where to put this so here it goes.
When Husband was vaccinated as a kid, he had a bad reaction to the whooping cough vaccine, and therefore never finished the course. He had the rest of his injections on the regular schedule, just excluded the whooping cough one because of the reaction.
I'm now 7 months pregnant and his mum just told me this the other day.
Can/should he get it done now? Or is it too late? Also is this something that might be a concern when it comes to our baby having vaccines administered?
Posted 24 January 2013 - 05:32 PM
Reactions to the DTP vaccine used to be quite common, as a result a new vaccine was developed in the 80s. It has been used here for 15 or so years now. Speak to your GP, it's definitely worth looking into because there's every chance he'd be fine with the new vaccine. (of course I have no idea how or why he reacted, so that all needs to be taken into consideration by his doctor)
Good luck .

Did you notice in my last post that the income gap between rich and pooror actually rich and everyone elseis at its highest point since the ominous year of 1928?
Yes, indeed. Total reported income in the United States increased by 9 percent in 2005, but average incomes for all but the wealthiest 10 percent of Americans were down by .6 percent.
So who got more money? Why, the top 1 percent, of course. Their incomes rose by 14 percent to an average of more than $1.1 million per household. Sweet! The top 10 percentthose who make more than $100,000also lived off the fat of the rest of us. Nicely done, lads!
The New York Times reports:
[T]he top 300,000 Americans collectively enjoyed almost as much income as the bottom 150 million Americans. Per person, the top group received 440 times as much as the average person in the bottom half earned, nearly doubling the gap from 1980.
That sounds seriously messed up, right? Well, yeah, but it's probably even worse for two reasons. First, the wealthiest Americans are the most likely to file late, so the data may be slightly skewed. Secondand this is my favoritethe IRS claims to "find" 99 percent of all wage income but only about 70 percent of business and investment income.
Maybe if they stopped wasting their time auditing the poor and starting auditing the richyou know, the ones with big bucks to hide and tax advisors to tell them how to do itthey might find the untold billions of unpaid taxes on the 30 percent all profits and capital gains.

for ways to improve my coaching, and I wanted to learn what part of each successful project had to do with my coaching and what part had to do with the community or our use of agile methods.
It was quickly clear that many of my producing skills had transferred to my coaching. While the mediums differ, the work of the coach and the producer are quite similar. Both coach and producer help people create their best product with the time, money, and technology available. Where the producer helps the musicians turn songs into recordings, the coach helps project communities turn product owners' dreams into working software. Both follow a process (or journey) which has enough structure to allow for innovation.
|Fig. 2: Agile products flow through an innovative delivery process.
My reflection also showed me that, named or unnamed, many projects begin with some kind of preproduction. Preproduction creates the time and space for a community to get ready to produce. As I introduced this idea more formally, I found it offered the same benefit as it did in the music world. I now had a name for a tool that allowed me to get to know the people, their product, and the tools and technologies in play.
Now, I commonly add four preproduction practices to each coaching gig:
- Project Chartering-starts building community and a common vision
- Creating an Initial Product Backlog-helps people see product value and start to build a common language
- Informative Workspace-creates a place where people can bond around the product/project
- Iteration 0-gets the technical house in order; design ideas emerge through early architectural spikes (time boxed investments used to better understand a technology or a possible technology solution)
I try to make sure that the amount of preproduction rigor is appropriate for the community I am coaching. For instance, a small community that is already very adaptive may complete these four practices in a few days. Conversely, a larger and distributed community that is replacing a complex system may need a bit more preproduction time.
Project Chartering
To better see the coach's value, let's take a coaching view at project chartering. Before we dig in, you should know (if you do not already) that project chartering is not new. Many managers create project charters; sadly, few people read them. Why? Maybe the charters are buried or simply not shared. Or, it could be that people lack ownership.
As is so often the case, the agile community simply took an existing tool and made it better by making it a collaborative tool. Agile charters are created by the community for the community. The charter is a way for the community to get to know each other, the purpose for the project, and the strengths and risks that lie ahead.
Like hang time (time spent) in a rehearsal room, chartering helps me (the coach) get to know the community. As we discuss project goals and potential roadblocks, I quickly see the communication skills of the individuals and the community. For instance, when the members of a project community are new, I see where I can grow existing connections and where I may need to make new connections. The chartering discussion draws people into a shared discussion around their commonalities and differences.
My time as a producer taught me the importance of fostering strong interaction during preproduction. As a coach, I use preproduction time (and practices) to connect communities. I often use this time to start connecting the technologists and the business players. Similar to getting the drummer to understand the horn section, I help the community

Ganciclovir is also sometimes referred to DHPG.
Ganciclovir (Cytovene®)is an antiviral medication used to prevent or treat infections caused by Cytomegalovirus (CMV). Liver transplant recipients are susceptible to CMV due to immunosuppressant drugs. Ganciclovir will not cure CMV eye infection, but it may help prevent the symptoms from becoming worse.
Gancyclovir is taken by mouth or given by injection. The oral medication is available in 250 or 500 mg capsules.
Ganciclovir capsules should be swallowed whole and taken with food. Do not open or crush the capsules. Your child should drink plenty of fluids while taking ganciclovir.
If your child misses a dose, it should be taken as soon as you or your child remembers. If you remember within two hours of the time for your next dose, however, skip the missed dose and resume your child's usual dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.
Your child may experience headaches and dizziness, or feel nervous or confused while taking ganciclovir. You may notice your child has less interest in eating than usual. Sometimes, people taking ganciclovir have stomach upset that ranges from mild upset to nausea and vomiting. Other side effects include tremor, weakness, and swollen ankles or feet. These side effects are all relatively common with this medication, and not cause for alarm.
In rare cases, some patients experience these side effects when taking ganciclovir:
If any of these side effects continues or becomes bothersome, inform your transplant doctor or transplant coordinator.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about any prescription or over-the-counter medications your child is taking, so you can be informed of interactions and prevent them.
Ganciclovir may cut down the number of blood cells in your child's blood. Blood cells are needed for clotting, so the decrease may cause your child to bleed more easily and heal more slowly. When taking ganciclovir, your child should (as much as possible) avoid activities where bruising or injury may occur.

Well the trac-bar has finally become a severe issue....
The Jeep started sounding weird and I noticed the engine leaning to one side.
Broken passenger side engine mount was the culprit.
After removing the mount I found to my excitement that the weight of the engine busted a nice hole in the distributor.
The trac-bar has a severe bend in it now.
I was emailing a tech at rustysoffroad about it and he offered to send me the straight one for $130 and I felt that since they had changed the design they should cover part of it. He asked for my info and sure enough an hour later I received a call from Rusty himself. I was surprised at first that he would take the time to call me but he said he had never seen anything like it before and that they jump their 6.5" kit 6 feet off the ground with no issues.
He told me I could go measure what I needed to have and they would build it for $60. That seemed very fair and once again I am extremely satisfied with their service.
