I love the sparkle and shine metallic thread gives to my fabric art, but the hassles--shredding, the curling, the broken threads-give me such a headache. I always approach metallic threads with trepidation, and I could swear the spool can smell my fear.
Around the Quilting Arts Community, people with "tension problems" don't need relaxation techniques--they need a stitching specialist. Fortunately, we know several, and Susan Brubaker Knapp is one of the best.
Few machine stitching
problems vex quilters as much as thread tension troubles. Skipped
stitches, loops forming on the top or bottom of the stitch line,
puckering always seem to arise at an inconvenient time.
In keeping with my goal this year of making art every day, I'm keeping my eye out for quick sewing and quilting projects.
One of the perks of living in Colorado is having ready access to the amazing number of highly talented fiber artists that live and create in the Front Range area.In Boulder alone, there are so many textile and mixed-media fiber artists that when I attended the annual open studios tour last fall, I couldn't even get to them all.

I have a ton of vintage textiles that I like to incorporate in my artwork. I have been using many of my more fragile pieces in my Prayer Flag Project, stitched to sturdier pieces of muslin or linen.
Most of the time when I'm not at work, you'll find me in my studio, conveniently located in my home (which is five minutes from the office--see how it all works together?). I made over my studio in the spring of 2008, with the results shown in the premiere issue of Cloth Paper Scissors Studios, and ever since I have been very happy with how it flows and functions.
This weekend, I took a little break from my usual quilt making to sew Halloween costumes. My fiancé and I decided to dress up as gummy bears (well, I decided and he has somewhat reluctantly obliged), so I stitched up some very basic hats and bought...
There is something about crafting the items you use around the house that elevates them from just functional to both fabulous and functional.
Right now, I'm looking for quick quilting projects to make. Running through the file of quilting ideas I keep in my head, I remembered these sweet little free-motion stitched stockings by Diane Rusin Doran from Quilting Arts Gifts 2011.

A note from Vivika: Today our topic is mixing fiber art with wet media (specifically watercolor) to use in surface design. So, I called in my mixed-media colleague Cate Prato, Editor of Cloth Paper Scissors Today, to serve as guest blogger. Take it away, Cate!
When it comes to creating quilting designs, one of the most useful tools to have is a design wall. I know I'd be lost without mine (or at least, I would make good design decisions less consistently). There is something about taking your fabric pieces and other elements off the table, putting them on a wall, and stepping back from them that helps you see color and pattern combinations in a new way.
Everyone knows the saying "April showers bring May flowers." Well, it's most certainly raining here in Massachusetts and I'm ready for the flowers! Yesterday I saw a few courageous daffodils in my yard. I was overjoyed by the burst of...

Into the Fray
Topics: Chuck Colson, Colson Center, Politics & Government, Video, Worldview
@Jason. Studies I have seen by Poynter and others - on the effect of commenting on various media online - is that it has more effect on the readers (who do not themselves comment) than on the commenters themselves. Few other, 'opposing' commenters (or Trolls) get converted. But Many people who simply read and watch are affected. Think of Jesus, when He confronted the Pharisees, or the Sadducees, or others. Few of them converted then. Even Nicodemus snuck back to Him at night, when no one could see. But the effect on the crowd of observers was tremendous. That is how we Christians have to engage. And we must be fearless about it.
My experience is that it usually causes a pointless flame that leaves everyone thinking the same thing they did before.
Troll Baiting
@Jason. We are trying to turn this from a Troll festival into a genuine discussion. It seems to be moving in that direction. My experience, both online and in real gatherings (going all the way back to witnessing at SDS rallies on campus in the late 60's - yes - that dates me) - is that if you stand your ground and speak the truth steadily and with kindness, you have a MUCH bigger effect on the crowd than you would ever imagine.
The Discussion rages on
It is interesting the tack this discussion has taken. There are many more supporters now, but also still many opponents. It is, of course, much more bare-knuckled than most we have on The BreakPoint Blog. (Note - I just posted a new direct link to the comment section at the end of the original post above).
Trollbaiting just wastes time and leaves you feeling lousy, Lee. I've done it to many times to want to do it again.
Alan, Gregory (the Gre...y?) was thread weaving:
It's from an existentialist poem written by the main character's father in the film The Grey. The first two stanza of "The Charge of the Light Brigade" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson:
Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
'Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns' he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
'Forward, the Light Brigade!'
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldiers knew
Some one had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
Hey! The discussion has gotten a lot better over on YouTube.
@LeeQuod - Hip-Hip- Hooray! you are one of the best! The cavalry has arrived, or air cover, or whatever! Yes, many are spoiling for a fight, and,to quote Dr. Dobson's book, The Strong-Willed Child: "...we dare not disappoint them!"
@Gregorius - I resisted the temptation to look up the quote - guessing - Tennyson? Charge of the Light Brigade??
I am sure it is not the "Onward Sufragettes" song from Mme. Banks in Mary Poppins. "Onward and onward, into the fray..." That one is still on my mind because we showed the dear old film to Samuel, finally. He loved it.
Alan, it appears to me that most of the comments are from people spoiling for a fight, rather than (as at this blog) discussing. But since you asked, I figured out how to sign up for YouTube, and I posted some comments as well as rating some. We'll see how it goes.
Not again...
Once more into the fray
Into the last good fight I'll ever know.
Live and die today,
Live and die today.
More good comments
More good comments ....great!!!
A couple of comments
We have gotten a couple of comments on the positive side since this went up. That is good, and thanks! We need more and we also need ratings on comments. The highest-rated comments there are pretty negative.

5 Tips On Finding The Best Products At Ethnic Markets
Ethnic markets are fabulous places. You can find offbeat ingredients that are integral to making authentic dishes that you can't find anywhere else. But what happens when you walk in the doors and find 25 kinds of fish sauce and you can't tell which is the superior product? You can't read the label and you're left standing clueless, confused and overwhelmed. What to do?
We've been there and trust us, it can be a little scary. Ethnic markets usually smell a little different than the smells we're used to in an American grocery store. There's a hustle and bustle around you and there is often a language barrier, too.
So how do you choose between aisle after aisle of what can sometimes seem like the same thing? We have 5 tips below to make you feel a bit more confident in your shopping and by result, hopefully you're cooking as well!
1. Don't Buy Dusty Things: It sounds pedestrian, and there's probably a more glamorous way to say it, but dusty products have been there for at least a week and most good markets see enough foot traffic to warrant a minimum of every other day stocking.
2. Snoop In Other People's Baskets: Of course if you're brave enough you can always ask, but that defeats the point of being a foodie elitist right? We aren't saying we're snobby or better than anyone else, but dang it, we like to be the one's who are on top of the game and get asked the questions, not the other way around. Anyway, see what people who look like they are regulars at the market are buying. Chances are they're using a product that came by reference or is one they have been using for years. Always a good sign!
3. Read Cookbook Intros: Now this may sound silly, but when we get a spare moment with the husband, we like to head to the local bookstore and camp out with a beverage and a stack of magazines and books to flip through. During these times, we've taken notice that many chefs will tell you in the intro to their books, or to specific chapters, their preference for certain ingredients.
With the invention of product placement on TV, it's not as easy as just paying attention to what the chefs on TV are using; most of their products don't exist in markets as someone has the task of creating fake labels for all their products, although you can watch for specific bottle shapes and sizes.
4. Look For Overstock: Some markets will keep their extra stock above the shelves. Check for large amounts of a product waiting to have its turn on the shelf; usually it means it sells quickly! You can also check for double facings of a product (how many are side by side on the shelf); assuming they were stocked correctly, it can also mean a better selling product. In regular supermarkets, companies pay for prime shelf location, eye level, how much space it takes up and so forth, but in smaller markets where most of the goods are imported, this rule of thumb goes out the window and they are just trying to make the most money, which means selling the most stuff!
5. Trust Your Instincts and Don't Be Scared: Chances are if you're brave enough to tackle a new dish or food, you're brave enough to make an educated guess as to which product will be a winner. If you choose one that isn't a winner, make sure you make a note of it and keep the note in your phone, purse or wallet so next time, you can try again!
Have fun with it and when all else fails, ask for help!

Three Crabs Fish Sauce is what I had recommended to me at a Thai Cooking class I took!
Why not also look at price?
Stay away from brands have been tweaked to suit the American tastebud (read: can't handle it) like La Choy, Thai Kitchen, and Chun King. They tend to have too much sugar and are too bland.
While growing up, I've always seen these brands in the kitchens:
Fish Sauce: Tiparos (yellow, red and blue label). I'll have to try the 3 Crabs brand
Sriracha: The famous standard by Huy Fong with the clear plastic bottle, green cap and the white ink.
Various sauces and salted soy beans by Koon Chun.
Coconut Milk: Aroy-D (which translates into Yummy!)
I found this website. I think it would come in handy:
i don't like 3 crabs --- hydrolized wheat protein in my fish sauce? no thanks.
i like tra chang and tiparos.
Shark Brand Sriracha
Cook-Do and House Food Pi dan tofu sauce (or pidan dofu if you speak Mandarin) is great. Use both to make shortcut dinner that tastes authentic every few weeks.
If buying ramen, splurge and spend $1.00/pkg (or sometimes $1.50) on the ones with fresh noodles in the refridgerated section. No comparison. Or buy miso paste, fresh noodles, scallions, kamaboko (white/pink fish cake) and make your own!
Also, don't be afraid to ask the people around you for advice. Just be sure to tell them you don't American-ized versions of anything.
Can't remember the name of the fish sauce I always get (it's green and white and has a picture of a shrimp on it) but I was laughing when I saw it be used in Iron Chef.
Along with looking for dust, look at the expiration dates.

Welcome to the Social Development Lab at the University of Nebraska at Omaha!
Research in the Social Development Lab in the Department of Psychology at the University of Nebraska at Omaha uses a developmental framework to study various forms of aggressive behavior and victimization, interpersonal relationships (broadly defined) and other social behaviors.
Specifically, our research team and collaborators have been investigating the etiology of relational aggression in early childhood and beyond. In addition, recent investigations have been concerned with electronic aggression and victimization, including examinations of the overlap between traditional schoolyard aggression and victimization and electronic forms. Our projects also study the formation of friendships, peer relationships, prosocial behavior and adjustment problems in different developmental periods. Our focus on interpersonal relationships has also led to some fruitful collaborations with colleagues on inter-ethnic group perceptions and relations. Welcome to our web page, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Combination preparations containing one or more of the above drugs, sometimes along with pain and fever reducing drugs (aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or naproxen sodium) are common. These are available in both tablet and liquid form. The liquid preparations are particularly useful for children who may need smaller doses. Combination decongestant/antihistamine medications can be well-tolerated since the stimulant effect of the decongestant and the sedative effect of the antihistamine often offset each other.
Remember to read the labels and note which active ingredients are contained in any medications you are taking. You should not take additional pain or fever reducing drugs if you are taking a combination medication that includes them. Your pharmacist or doctor can guide you to appropriate preparations for your particular symptoms and condition.

Anybody out there wanna play with a brand new blog app? Lemme know via the message form which hopefully is around here somewhere. Intelligent and articulate is required, but a nice set of knockers can make up for a lot of dumb I figure if you want to play as a user I'll set you up a blog here, and if you want to play as a contributor then I'll get you in the game. A nice rack doesn't get you in the game though. For that you need to be geeky enough to be excited by contributing to an open source app and willing to actually do it.

FIFA 12 on Xbox
Posted by: The Organ Harvester on Jan 06, 2012
Tagged in: Untagged
My girlfriend bought the EA Games FIFA 12 for my birthday. I like sports sims. Except this is EA and I am a fan of Konami's Pro Evo franchise.
The graphics are fantastic and now if you play on a Pro level you can accumulate points for your chosen club. This is important if you play online. Since Telkom can't install an ADSL line in my area it is practically pointless.
Overall I like the game. the gameplay is familiar without being stale. But typical EA, there are a few glitches. Like when your striker scores a goal and goes for a french kiss/head butt/eskimo kiss with a team mate. That's his celebration. He gets stuck there and you have to skip that.
My favourite is playing Manchest United at Old Trafford. Not only have they bought Gareth Bale and Luca Modric but they dive and get penalties. I use Chelsea and Torres is shocking in front of posts. I swapped Petr Cech and Torres. The Spaniard is not a bad keeper.
But back to Manure Ted. The game is pretty authentic. The ref plays extra time when they are behind and every fall in your box will result in a penalty and will result in a goal. Other teams are crap. Not Manure Ted. Wayne Rooney's hair blowing in the wind, delivers a devastating shot to leave the posts rattling.
Overall I would recommend the game. I just started playing it and I am very happy with it. There are the obvious glitches. Like not finding your saved games in the saved careers folder and the french kissing strikers but overall the game is pretty enjoyable. Warning though: this game can break up relationships if one partner is not into it. (Chicks) My suggestion is learn to play the game or forever choose to lead a life of misery because you will known as She who hates Xbox. There was a movie about it once. Had Demi Moore in it. She had to wear the letter A on her chest for behaving like an A... you get the picture.

D=ogen (1200-1253), the founder of the S=ot=o Zen sect in Japan, is especially known for introducing to Japanese Buddhism many of the texts and practices that he discovered in China. Heine reconstructs the context of D=ogen's travels to and reflections on China by means of a critical look at traditional sources both by and about D=ogen in light of recent ... Read More »

Like Cats and Dogs: Contesting the Mu Koan in Zen Buddhism
Koans are dialogues that stand at the center of Zen Buddhist literature and are often used to provoke the "great doubt" in testing a trainee's progress. The Mu Koan consists of a brief conversation in which a monk asks Master Zhaozhou whether or not a dog has Buddha-nature. According to the main version, the reply is "Mu": literally, "No," but ...

Sacred High City, Sacred Low City: A Tale of Religious Sites in Two Tokyo Neighborhoods
In Sacred High City, Sacred Low City, Steven Heine argues that lived religion in Japan functions as an integral part of daily life; any apparent lack of interest masks a fundamental commitment to participating regularly in diverse, though diffused, religious practices. The book uses case studies of religious sites at two representative but contrasting Tokyo neighborhoods as a basis for ... Read More »
White Collar Zen: Using Zen Principles to Overcome Obstacles and Achieve Your Career Goals
It is said that in traditional Japan the samurai embraced Zen because it helped them to be fearless in adversity, to act quickly and decisively, and to keep focused on their ultimate goal. In White Collar Zen, Steven Heine shows how, by applying Zen principles in our working lives, we can achieve the same results for ourselves. Heine describes the ... Read More »
Zen Skin, Zen Marrow: Will the Real Zen Buddhism Please Stand Up?
Since Zen Buddhism first captivated the attention of Western seekers the dominant discourse about this sect has been romantic, idealistic, and utopian. The essence of Zen has been described as ineffable, holistic, and promoting social harmony. In recent years, however, some scholars have begun to examine Zen through the lenses of historical and cultural criticism, producing a sharp challenge to ... Read More »

The Phoenix Coyotes have signed left wing Mikkel Boedker to a two-year contract. Terms of the deal were not released Saturday.
A restricted free agent, Boedker did not file for arbitration because he believed a deal with the Coyotes would get done before the start of training camp.
The 23-year-old from Denmark had seven goals and 19 assists during the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season. Boedker has 34 goals and 61 assists in parts of five seasons with the Coyotes.

It can be difficult to remove Sharpie from your computer screen. Abrasive clothes and certain cleaners cannot be used on your screen. This is a guide about removing permanent ink from a computer screen.
Here are questions related to Removing Permanent Ink (Sharpie) from a Computer Screen.
My 3 year old daughter decided to get artistic with a black Sharpie permanent marker! I freaked because it was on a LCD computer monitor which has a plastic screen. After reading some of the suggestions, I tried non-acetone nail polish remover. Much to my surprise and relief, it removed it completely and did no damage to the screen. If you have a similar situation, try using non-acetone nail polish remover and you won't be disappointed!
Source: Primarily from your website, but there wasn't any specific posts stating non-acetone nail polish remover as being used and being 100% successful.

Editor's Note: Test a small corner first before cleaning the entire monitor.
By Billy S.05/25/2013
Magic Eraser seems to work rather well with no apparent damage to the computer screen.
My 4yr old sister put brown Sharpie on my movable mouse that's built in my laptop and on my screen. Please help!

Nail varnish/lacquer/polish remover containing acetone will usually get Sharpie off. Be sure to test in a small, inconspicuous area in case it removes the finish along with the Sharpie.
Rubbing alcohol (non-mentholated) will usually work too. Again, test a small area first.

This item has been sold. Do you want to find another copy?
First edition, first printing, first state of the text, first issue dust jacket. The copy is the correct first printing, with "chatter" on p. 60, line 16, "northern" on p. 119, line 22, "it's" on p. 165, line 16, "away" on p. 165, line 29, "sick in tired" on p. 205, lines 9-10, and "Union Street station" on p. 211, lines 7-8; the jacket is the first printing, with lowercase "j" in "jay Gatsby" on the back at line 14 hand-corrected in ink. An excellent example of the famous dust jacket designed by Francis Cugat (1893-1981). Charles Scribner III ("Celestial Eyes – from Metamorphosis to Masterpiece") argues that not only is the jacket recognised as the most eloquent in American literary history, but that Cugat's artwork demonstrably had an effect on Fitzgerald's evolution of his literary masterpiece, as the author responded to sketches and artwork shown to him before the book was complete, a perhaps unique occurrence in literary history. Fitzgerald wrote to his publisher sometime in August 1924 from France: "For Christ's sake don't give anyone that jacket you're saving for me. I've written it into the book." Though artistically superb, the jacket included a misprint on the back panel that required hand-correction and it was left a little taller than the book itself. As a consequence almost all of the small number of examples that do survive have wear of some description at the edges.
Octavo. Original green cloth, titles to spine gilt and to upper board in blind, top edge trimmed others uncut. With the dust jacket. Housed in a dark green quarter morocco solander box made by The Chelsea Bindery. Foxing to page edges and the first and last gatherings, mild browning to the endpapers but an especially bright copy, tight and square in the slightly chipped dust jacket with a little professional repair. The folds have been internally strengthened and several tears repaired with retouching to the creases and rubbing. A very attractive copy; the brightness of the blue is especially good.

A Message from NSF - Scientific Ocean Drilling
- Details
- Published on Monday, 14 November 2011 15:48
Message to the scientific ocean drilling community
Next phase of scientific ocean drilling: the "International Ocean Discovery Program"
In August 2011, NSF informed the scientific drilling community of its plan to modify the funding and managing model for the JOIDES Resolution, generating a lot of questioning on the future organization of scientific drilling at the international level. Since then, representatives of NSF (USA), MEXT (Japan) and ECORD (European Consortium for Ocean Research Drilling that includes 16 European countries and Canada) have worked on a new framework that takes into account the new NSF position. We are pleased to announce that we have made substantial progress. At a recent meeting held in Granada (Spain) on November 3rd, we have agreed to the following essential points that will shape the new framework:
- IODP will remain a truly international programme committed to the delivery of the new science plan (http://www.iodp.org/Science-Plan-for-2013-2023/). At the international level, IODP will have only one face to communicate with other major science initiatives, potential new members, etc
- IODP will continue offering access to the JOIDES Resolution, Mission Specific Platforms and the Chikyu to all members. However, the platforms will be managed independently.
- IODP will continue its policy of open access to all data and cores collected during drilling expeditions
- MEXT, NSF and ECORD have agreed that a common international SAS will evaluate all proposals for all platforms
- Under the new programme, the structure will be streamlined and simplified, resulting in the acceleration of project implementation to the benefit of the science community
- The new programme will be extremely flexible and encourage co-funding on a project or partner basis for all platforms. Co-funding for specific projects is expected to come from member or non member countries, industry, the European Commission, etc.
- We are committed to an increased collaboration with other major science initiatives, for example the International Scientific Continental Drilling Program (ICDP)
The "International Working Group Plus" (IWG+) will work out the final details of the new program architecture. As soon as they are available, they will be communicated to the international science community.
While a decision on renewed funding by NSF and most funding agencies currently participating in IODP will not be made until sometime in 2012, anticipatory plans for a transition from the current phase, ending September 30th, 2013 to the next phase, starting October 1st, 2013 must be in place should support continue. Therefore, we encourage all scientists worldwide to continue submitting drilling proposals.
Proposal submission guidelines can be found at:
November 9th, 2011, the co-chairs of IWG+

Foodies in Turks & Caicos
Headed to Turks & Caicos later this week and looking for restaurant suggestions. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Not a lot to choose from there, at least not when we went 9 or 10 years ago. We had to go to a resident's house to purchase fresh baked bread. There were very few "restaurants" around then, mostly places to get fresh (delicious) fish and beans and other local fare. Probably has changed a lot since then. Back then, it was mainly used as a diving place (my husband is a certified open water diver). I'll watch this post to see what people have to say who've been there recently.
re: bamgordon
There are. Where are you staying, and will you have a car? Remember it's LH driving there. Taxi's are not a practical option.
re: bamgordon
You are in the Grace Bay area. About 2 miles west on what's called the bight road, in Turtle Cove, there is a marina and a few waterfront restaurants where locals and dive operators eat. There's Italian (decent pizza) and grouper sandwiches. There is a car rental place there, too, if you want to do a day rental and explore the island, which I recommend. In the Blue Hills area, you will find Bugaloo's and a few other great native places for fresh conch in every form, and other seafood. There is a lobster packing plant (actually 2) near the south dock toward Sapodilla Bay where fresh lobster is available at about 4 in the afternoon when the boats return, and is one of the best and delicious values on the island, if you have a kitchen(ette). The main E-W road is called the Leeward Highway, and there a few small plazas with interesting restaurants. It is about 1/2 mile north of your hotel. Keep doing your homework and let us know about other questions. I used to have a house there which I sold 4 years ago, but I know the lay of the land pretty well. Grace Bay is truly one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. You'll enjoy!
P.S. Beware Anacaona -it's beautiful with good food, but it will clean out your savings account.
re: bamgordon
I'm heading there tomorrow (!!) and I've found a lot of discussions about the various restaurants on the Turks and Caicos message board on tripadvisor.com. Not sure I'm allowed to reference another website on this site but I'll try. Enjoy your trip. I am counting the seconds until I leave!
re: cookiezim
We've posted the 'Best of Turks & Caicos' - Food & Drink category posted here http://www.discovertci.tc/foodanddrin...
Report written by us who have been living here in Provo for the past 12 years.
You'll love it down here!
re: bamgordon
Take a look into Aqua in turtle cove. For the money, it has the best food. Was there a couple of weeks ago and had two appys, two entrees, split a dessert and wine and beers for about 100.
If you want to splurge, IMO Anacoana at the Grace Bay Club is the best restaurant on the island but will also cost the most...our bill eclipsed 300 for 2 people.
Hi Bamgordon! How was the trip? Please post your reviews here. I'm on my way in ten days & would like to hear fresh takes on the current spots. thanks
A quick note on the food we ate on Provodenciales. Best meals were at Smokey's on Da Bay and Lemon Cafe. Smokeys is out in Blue Hill. Totally local scene but bad decor. We went Wednesday for their fish fry. DH had grilled lobster & I had a grouper fillet. They were both amazingly light & flavorful. The sides of cole slaw, corn, fries & bread fit the bill. Also, Smokeys was the least expensive meal we had on the whole island (lunches included!). Lemon Cafe is Moroccan/Med food. The owners are from Montreal. Chef, too. Lovely little free-standing restaurant in Grace Bay Village. He took such care with the decor & mood. Service was great and we really enjoyed our meal. Had lunch at Bernie's Cafe. Not sure why all the fuss. I thought $16 for four friend shrimp and some fries was overpriced. My caesar salad dressing tasted like flavored mayo:(
Lunch at Pizza Pizza in Grace Bay was fine but no great shakes. They make the kind of pizza where everything just slides off the crust when you pick it up. Not my favorite. We had lunch one day at Plunge at the Regent Palms hotel. It was good and probably a safe bet especially if you are staying there or close by. We recommend the open-faced crab sandwich and the sweet potato fries. Was pleasantly surprised by the the options for buying food. Graceway IGA and the Gourmet Food Market in Grace Bay were both gorgeous and offered great stuff. Caicos Cafe was highly recommended to us by some long term vacationers. We went and were disappointed. The conch fritter was nice and we liked the dipping sauce but our main courses tasted very Holiday Inn/industrial. Somehwere on the Beach is a great casual spot. Our dinner of quesadillas, fajitas and happy hour Red Stripes and Turks Head beers hit the spot. Wandered over another day after snorkeling and enjoyed bloody mary's on the deck.
We just got back from Turks and here are the restaurants that we went to:
Hole in the Wall
We went twice. Had oxtail, fried fish (this was the best of the places we went to, good seasoning and very crunchy but still moist and fleshy without being dry), jerk chicken, codfish. came with rice and beans, mac and cheese one day, mac salad another. All excellent. The mac salad was soooo good. I normally dont even like mac salad. Hubs ordered some carrot juice drink that the waitress told us had beer, rum and some other "stuff" in it that the churchgoers like to drink but not ask what's in it. It was good, like carrot cake.
Pink Hut Chicken Place
Someone else mentioned this on the board so we decided to check it out. Pretty good fried chicken wings. We ordered 5 dollars of chicken and skipped the fries. They brought out a load of chicken.
Carribean Cuisine
Not too easy to find, it's on Airport Road with a little hot pink sign that you can easily miss. It's not right on the road, but a little bit in a small plaza bit visible from the road. Curry Chicken roti was yummy. And cheap. Very limited daily menu, 6 or 7 things.
Middle Caicos Cafe
Right by Beaches on Grace Bay. We stayed at the Alexandra so we were here all the time for lunch. We had oxtail, baked chicken, fried fish (grouper). Came with rice and beans, mac and cheese, salad. All very good.
Da Conch Shack
Had the conch combo and fried fish. the fish was grouper. It was pretty good. The conch fritters were good. The cracked conch amazingly fresh and yummy.
Smokeys on the Bay
They were closed for about 5 months before reopening by Turtle Cove right above the Players Casino a week ago. We were bummed that it wasnt on the beach, but oh well. Had the fried snapper, ribs and conch chowder. The conch chowder was awesome and very hearty. We got a small and it was a mini meal in itself. Fish was good. Ribs were average.
The Vix
We broke down and had nonlocal food on our last night because I don't think my body could take any more fried food. Hubs had grilled snapper and I had pasta. It was decent. Relatively reasonably priced in comparison to the other more "high end" restaurants (we refused to go to because if I'm dropping that much money on dinner, I'll do it at a 5 star in NY). The creme brulee was to die for though. OMG.
We didnt do dinner here but thought it was worth mentioning. We decided to go to the bar and have appetizers and watch the sun set. This place is sooo sick. it is gorgeous and very very secluded. It was a bit rough driving here and the place was almost empty. We sat and had drinks and apps which were good, but definitely not worth the money. We think it would be the best place to watch a sunset (it was cloudy the day we went), either here or Ananconda's lounge/bar.
re: winsy
I smile every time Anacaona is spoken or printed as "Ananconda" or "Anaconda", it makes the most elegant (and expensive) place on Provo sound like a snake! Happens all the time. Sounds like you ate well there without going broke, an accomplishment on that island. The lunches and the beverage service by the pool at the Alexandra where you stayed are pretty good, likewise both of the Ocean Clubs, which are all accessible to non- guests.
Opus (near the Golf Club and Leeward Marina) has excellent fresh seafood, and live music some nights. Lovely backyard seating. Great ambience. Lovely owner, who was very helpful and informative.
Seaside Cafe, right on the ocean at the Ocean Club West resort, is owned by the same guy, Tony, who owns Opus. Also great food, but a bit different from the Opus restaurant in that the Seaside Cafe is more casual and the prices are lower.
Tried Coco Bistro, but didn't love it. Lovely setting, and pretty good lobster, but not worth the rave reviews I hear from people. Maybe something changed recently, because all the other travelers we met there in Provo had also heard great things about Coco and were disappointed.
The best food we had on our week-long trip was definitely at Bay Bistro at the Sibonne resort. We went there for lunch, and returned that same night for dinner. The coffee rubbed tuna is really unique and delicious, and their curry sauce was phenomenal. Really excellent seafood, picturesque seaside dining and very friendly service. Definitely try the homemade coconut icecream!
If you stay in a place with a kitchenette, the grocery store across from Seven Stars resort is expensive, but has a really nice selection. I spent about a hundred bucks and the beginning of the week there, and managed to save quite a bit of money by making lunches at "home".
Some nice 'local restaurant' recommendations to review on this thread http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/826346

Of mice and men
Van muizen en mensen
Geef dit een cijfer
Omdat je geen profiel hebt kan je stem niet aangepast worden.
Maak hier een profiel aan.
Lenny Small is very tall and simple minded. He is incredibly strong but he does not want hurt anyone. Lenny is actually very nice. He doesnt know his own strength and that is very dangerous. Lenny loves to touch soft things like the fur of a rabbit or a mice. Lenny is incredibly strong so he can kill animals by accident because he is simple minded. Once Lenny thought that he could bounce a puppy so he grabbed the puppy and smashed it on the ground and of course with his strength the puppy died. When the puppy died he did not realise that the puppy was dead or that he was the one that had killed the puppy.
No I would not want to be Lennys friend because he is simple minded so he doesnt know what he is doing. He could shake hands with you but he could crush your hand because he doesnt know his own strength. Besides because he is mentally retarded it takes a lot of patience to learn him something and I dont have as much patience as George has, so I could never get along with a person like Lenny.
George Milton is not very tall, a lot smarter than Lenny, and George is the one who tells Lenny what to do. George is a very nice person and he is very patient, but George can sometimes lose his temper. George tells Lenny what is wrong and what is right. George is like a father to Lenny. He looks after him and makes sure Lenny stays out of trouble, which is a very hard job because Lenny is simple minded. In the beginning of the story George and Lenny were together, George made fun of Lenny by telling him to jump in the river. Lenny did jump in the river although he could not swim and then George got Lenny out of the water and Lenny was very thankful to George because Lenny thought that George had saved his Life.
Yes I would like to be Georges friend because he is nice, patient, helpful, loving and caring overall he is a really good guy. When you are reading to story you feel sorry for Lenny that he is simple minded because in reality he is a good person who doesnt want to hurt anyone but again you are very happy that a guy like George is taking good care of Lenny.
Name two items that are of great importance to the story and explain using as many details as possible.
The first item is Carlsons Luger a Luger is a gun. When George found out that Curlys wife was dead he and Slim noticed that her neck was broken and the only possible of doing that was Lenny because he had the strenght to do such a thing. Curly and the men of the bunkhouse wanted to kill Lenny so George went to get Carlsons gun so he could kill Lenny in a less painfull way instead of Curly killing Lenny painfull. When Lenny and his men wanted to get the guns Carlson noticed that his Luger was missing so they thought Lenny took it to protect himself against Curly and his Men. So they now were even more determined to kill Lenny. What they didnt know was that George had the Luger.
The second item is a deck of cards because after work during week days there is no form of entertainment so the men in the bunkhouse play cards and tell each other the new things they heard about Curly and his wife. In the weekend there is a form of entertainment they men go to town except for George, Lenny and Crooks the negro man. Everbody is spending their money in town on girls and alcohol and when they come back they are broke then they have to work a month for money and then they spend it again. George and Lenny dont go out because they want to buy their farm with rabbits and mice so they have their own little place that they call home.
Think of two questions wich you would like to ask to the author of the book make sure the questions deal with the story, so no questions like: Why did you write this book?
Why does George lose his temper so quickly when Lenny doesnt understand something the first time?
Why does Curly hate big people?
Write a summary in English of the book and also give your own opinion together with an explanation use at least 300 words in total
Lenny and George were on the run, because Lenny touched a ladies dress. He touched the ladies dress because he likes soft things. Lenny and George hope to find work on a ranch. If they save enough money they want to buy a house and make it their own farm and they want to keep rabbits, mice and other animals. They slept near a pool of water for one night.
The next day they came to the bunkhouse of the ranch. They got work there and soon met the other guys who work on the ranch. There was a man called Curly he was very mean and small. He hated big people. He was very insecure. He was the son of the boss and he could do anything he wanted to do on the farm. When he saw Lenny he looked very aggressive. He was very rude and mean against Lenny. Curly also has a wife, she walks around, and comes in the bunkhouse although she isnt allowed over there. She was flirting with Lenny. One day Curly was very aggressive and had a fight with Lenny. Curly punched Lenny on the nose and in the eye and it was bleeding. In a attempt to stop Curly, Lenny took Curlys hand and crushed it because he was so incredibly strong. Curly went to the local doctor and said that his hand was trapped in a machine because he didnt want to look stupid because he was known as the strong man which nobody could beat during fights. When Lenny sat in the barn, Curlys wife came to him. Lenny said: If I talk to you I cant have the rabbits anymore. He tries not to speak to hear. Curlys wife gets closer to Lenny. He touched her hair, but he touched it too hard. She started to scream. Lenny tried to stop her from screaming by holding his hand in front of her mouth. He kills her because he pulled too hard and broke her neck.
Lenny went into the woods because Curly and the others wanted to kill him. George goes along with the others into the woods. He found Lenny first and het told him about the farm, their perfect world. Then he shot Lenny because otherwise the others would have killed him much more painfully. This was the best George could have done for Lenny.
I have read this book with great pleasure. There are more than one meanings behind this story it is not only about dumb Lenny and smart George. The story also tells about racism the difference between black and white Crooks the Negro has to sleep apart in his own shed next to the bunkhouse away from the other men because he is black. I really loved this book not only for the simplicity of the language of George and Lenny but also for the different meanings behind the story. On my scale for fun I would give it a 8.5 I also really enjoyed making this report and I am looking forward towards making my next book report for English.

How to File for Divorce in Midland County
If you are thinking about divorce in Midland County, divorce law requires you to be a Texas resident for at least six months before filing for divorce and a Midland County resident for at least three months. If you bring your paperwork to the family court, this will legally begin the divorce process.
Hire a Midland County Divorce Lawyer
Even if you and your spouse are anticipating a friendly divorce, you should still consider hiring a Midland County divorce lawyer to represent you. An experienced divorce attorney will be familiar with the local courts, will know where to file for divorce in Midland County, and can offer you legal advice throughout the process.
Types of Divorce
If you and your spouse have agreed on how to divide your marital assets or custody of any children, you can file for a no-contest divorce. If you cannot reach agreement on the major issues, this is known as a contested divorce. A no-contest divorce is usually a shorter process, but if you're unable to reach decisions, a judge will make them for you.
Your next decision will be whether you want to file for a no-fault divorce or an at-fault divorce (also known as a fault-based divorce). A no-fault divorce blames neither party for the end of the marriage. A fault-based divorce says that one spouse was responsible for the marriage's failure.
How to File for Divorce in Midland County
During your divorce process, there are many forms you will have to fill out, but the Petition for Divorce is the main for you'll have to file with the Midland County divorce court. It asks the court to legally end your marriage. The person who files the form with the Midland County Clerk is referred as the petitioner. The other spouse is referred to as the respondent.
For your Midland County divorce to be legal, the respondent must know that the petitioner filed for divorce. In Midland County, if you cannot find your spouse, you can notify him or her via an announcement in a newspaper, though in-person notice is preferable.
Grounds for Midland County Fault-Based Divorce
Whether you live in Greenwood, Odessa, or anywhere else in Midland County, there are several legal reasons, also called grounds that the court will accept if you're requesting a fault-based divorce. These include:
- Adultery: If your spouse has had voluntary sexual intercourse with someone else, you may be able to get a divorce on the grounds of adultery.
- Abandonment: If your spouse left and doesn't plan to return, the court may grant you a divorce on the grounds of abandonment.
- Felony: You may be able to get a divorce on the grounds of felony if your spouse has been imprisoned for more than a year or committed a felony.
- Cruelty: If your spouse is attacking you mentally or physically, the court may grant you a divorce on the grounds of cruelty.
- Confinement in mental hospital: If your spouse has been in a mental hospital for more than a year, you may be granted a divorce on the grounds of cruelty.

Хорошая обувь, очень качественная. Немного тяжеловата, но это не проблема. (Translation from Russian: Good shoes, very high quality. Bit heavy, but it's not a problem.) Сейчас эта обувь очень дорогая, а качество желает быть лучше. (Now these shoes are very expensive, and wants to be better quality.) Full review
1569 Shoe
The New Balance 1569 is a midweight hiking boot designed to take on rugged terrain. A well-made, solid shoe, it comes in wide widths, runs small. I purchased the New Balance 1569 ("Mens Walking" MW1569BR) at the first of the year. I was looking for some hiking boots that were more than just 'sneakers with off-road tread' and less than 'serious' backpacking boots. I wanted something I could comfortably wear on the hiking I do in the local mountains, but versatile enough that I could wear… Full review
Minimus Vibram Sandal
Nice quality, light and airy. They just feel great after a long hike. I use these around the campsite. The footbed is very comfortable with or without socks. The Vibram sole offers enough support and protection for my feet, and they just feel good after kicking around in my boots all day. I guess they'd work well as water shoes too, as the perforated polyurethane upper sheds water very well, but I've only used these while backpacking. At 7.4oz for the pair, they're light and easy to justify carrying… Full review
Great trail running shoe. Lightweight, flexible, and breathable. Highly recommended for trail runners or just those who want athletic shoes with stronger grip. For those with narrow to regular feet. Bought these shoes from an online retailer. Fits true to size. I actually tried them on in store, then purchased online elsewhere as it was about $10 less expensive. I use two options when hiking: boots and trail running shoes. For those hikes with less elevation or less rocky surfaces, I go straight… Full review
Minimus Trail
Lightweight and comfortable for moderate hiking and wearing around camp. No major complaints after a week of hiking in Moab. Worth the $ in my opinion. I bought these for hiking for a week in Moab. The weather started off cooler and I really wanted warm socks on so I started the trip with my old running shoes and thick socks. Once temps reached 50+ degrees, these were my go-to, do-anything shoes for the rest of the trip. I put about 20 trail miles on these shoes with no discomfort. The hike down… Full review

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Police now know the shooting took place in 2400 block of East 8th Street. The shooting took the life of 36-year-old Angela Holt and left 34-year-old Trent Johnson in critical condition.
But other than that there are still a lot of unanswered questions surrounding this fatal shooting. The shooting happened just after 4:00 Thursday morning in the 2400 hundred block of east 8th street.
Roxane Jordan lives on this street. "I heard three shots and then I looked out the window and saw the car hit that pole right there," said Jordan.
Police say after shots were fired, the car backed into the utility pool and drove a few streets up to the 1700 block of East Cornell to get help from a friend and ended up in Carl Giddens yard. "The police showed up the same time I was coming outside because he was making a whole lot of racket, he saying, help me I'm dying," said Giddens.
Police say shortly thereafter Johnson collapsed. He was shot multiple times, and one was to the head. He remains in critical condition at UMC. "The male victim is unable at this point to provide us any information so we don't have a whole lot to go on there is some physical evidence that we've been able to review and look at the crime scene as well as the vehicle," said Captain Greg Stevens with the Lubbock Police Department.
Inside the car was Holt who was shot and killed. "It's been very difficult to positively identify her and in order to get that one percent of sureness all the way to 100%, we've had to wait on fingerprint identification evidence to come back," said Stevens.
Police say they are still searching for answers of whether or not the victims knew the suspect, and a possible motive for the shooting. "The investigation is wide open at this time and it's just too difficult to narrow down to anything right now because we don't want to exclude any possibilities right now," said Stevens.
Police need your help to figure out some of these unanswered questions. They have no suspects at this time, or any descriptions. So if you know anything about this shooting, please call CrimeLine the number is 741-1000.

Business Ideas in the News / March 3, 2010
Nestlé Toll House Café by Chip, a premiere dessert café, announces the opening of its newest franchised café at Watters Creek at Montgomery Farm in Allen, Texas. This opening marks the sixth franchised café in the Dallas Metroplex.
Located in Watters Creek, a resort-style shopping center, the new café opened for business on February 23, and had an strong pre-opening weekend as customers sampled a taste of the "Very Best" cookies the café offers.
"It is a great opportunity for me to expand into multiple stores with this successful concept," says franchisee Faisal Khan. "The support team is very professional and helpful to us. Our decision to be a franchisee with this concept is one of the best decisions we've ever made." Khan and his wife Beenish are seasoned multi-unit Subway franchisees.

News: Boyd Gordon is expected to serve as the Oilers' No. 3 center to begin the season, ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun reports. Analysis: Though filling the hole at the second-line center spot is the more pressing need for the Oilers, it appears that rookie Leon Draisaitl or Mark Arcobello will be given the opportunity to do so before Boyd Gordon does. Gordon is serviceable two-way depth center for the Oilers, but he doesn't offer enough offensive upside to keep up with the likes of David Perron and Nail Yakupov on the wings. Look for Gordon to finish with another season where he hovers around the 20-point mark.
News: Minnesota has approached Ilya Bryzgalov about coming into training camp on a tryout, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Analysis: With Josh Harding suffering an ankle injury this summer and Darcy Kuemper unsigned and threatening to play overseas, the Wild may bring back Ilya Bryzgalov to serve as Niklas Backstrom's backup.
News: Josh Harding has been ruled out indefinitely with a fractured right foot sustained in an off-ice incident Sept. 14. Analysis: Josh Harding will fortunately be able to avoid surgery on the foot, but the injury more than likely dashes his chances of playing in the Wild's season opener. More details surrounding the nature of Harding's injury should become available in the coming days, but expect his stock to fall considerably in drafts as the season approaches. Harding already came with plenty of built-in health risk due to his complications with multiple sclerosis that have prematurely ended each of his last two seasons, so the injury only further damages his standing. Look for either Niklas Backstrom, Darcy Kuemper or perhaps a currently unsigned goalie to compete for No. 1 duties in training camp.
News: Max Domi, who had a brilliant 93 point campaign for London in the OHL in 2013, is being looked to crack the Coyotes' lineup and add scoring, according to Sarah McLellan of the Arizona Republic. Analysis: Max Domi's offensive ability is not in question, but coach Dave Tippett will need to be assured that he can handle his defensive duties in order for Domi to get the kind of ice time he needs to reach his potential.
News: Jaden Schwartz, a restricted free agent, remains unsigned with one day left before camp opens, reports Andy Strickland of Fox Sports Midwest. Analysis: Reports suggest that Jaden Schwartz and the Blues remain far apart. The 22 year-old had a break out season with 56 points and a plus-28 rating. It is unlikely that he will miss time in the regular season and hopefully any time he misses in camp does not cause him to get off to a slow start.
News: Justin Braun, who set career bests with 17 points, four goals, and 13 assists last season, has inked a five-year, $19 million extension with the Sharks, which will begin in the 2015-16 season. Analysis: Justin Braun's strengths for fantasy lie in his 20:59 of average ice time last year, but his value in other categories is generally limited. Though he occupies a prominent place on the Sharks' penalty kill, the aforementioned career-highs are nothing that will get you drafting him in early rounds. It's a great signing for the Sharks, but strictly from a real-life perspective.
News: Though he's fully recovered from his abdominal and shoulder injuries, Nathan Horton will be limited in the early stages of training camp due to lingering back issues, Shawn Mitchell of the Columbus Dispatch reports. Analysis: Nathan Horton appeared poised to enter his second training camp with the Blue Jackets at full health, but it didn't take long for him to succumb to another injury. While this latest ailment doesn't appear nearly as concerning as the abdominal and shoulder injuries that both required surgery over the last 14 months, it's difficult to rely on Horton staying upright over the course of a full season. If he's somehow able to dispatch the myriad health concerns that have plagued him the last several seasons, 50-point potential exists here. For right now, however, that projection probably appears overly optimistic.
News: Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekalainen dropped strong hints that the club would stop negotiating with Ryan Johansen's agent once training camp begins on Thursday, the Columbus Dispatch reports. Analysis: Meanwhile, club president John Davidson described agent Kurt Overhardt's contract proposals as "embarrassing" and "absurd", and said that while the Jackets are using Matt Duchesne's bridge deal as a reasonable point of comparison, Overhardt has been tossing around names like Stamkos and Toews. Public statements like these are clearly a negotiating tactic, but the Jackets do have enough depth at center that they could try to survive the loss of Ryan Johansen, last season's top scorer, by shifting Boone Jenner into the middle or possibly giving a prospect like Alexander Wennberg a long look.
News: Kris Letang, who suffered a stroke nearly eight months ago, has been working out without any complications this summer and should be a full participant for the start of training camp, Josh Yohe of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports. Analysis: In addition to the stroke, Kris Letang was limited to 37 games last season due to a knee injury and an elbow infection. Though he's the ultimate health risk after missing 99 games over the last three seasons, but few blueliners possess as much skill offensively as Letang, who still accumulated 11 goals and 11 assists in limited action in 2013-14. Letang compiled 50 points in his last full season in 2010-11, and that peak could be in reach again if he can avoid any long-term health complications.
News: Penguins coach Mike Johnston said Tuesday that Derrick Pouliot (shoulder) likely won't be ready for training camp, Josh Yohe of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports. Analysis: Johnston said that Derrick Pouliot, one of the team's top prospects, would likely be able to take part in some skating at the start of camp, but he'll be held out of contact drills until further notice. The former No. 8 overall draft pick accumulated 17 goals and 53 assists over 58 games last season with the WHL's Portland Winterhawks.

Primary / Secondary BasicsHi all ,
I have a question regarding the attached sketch. Since the loops are " hydraulically disconnected " won't the secondary heat exchanger loop flow like a Ferris Wheel regardless of which pipe is entering first ? Even it is reversed from the flow in the primary pipe it should flow backward in the main. I have all of the books but when talking with others on this issue they act as though the fluid needs to " slinky " in the first pipe and if it can't do that than it must be wrong. I say that either way the only thing that matters for their purpose is to cool the fluid between the branches and either way the result is the same , if not better the way that we have it. Thanks for replies.

I'll take the picture on the right.I'm not sure what you mean by "slinky" and "ferris wheel".
You have it piped backwards.

What Goes Into A TeeMust leave a tee. Yes you will have a mix water temp in pic one..
Say the Main loop is flowing 8gpm of 180 degree water. The secondary loop is taking 4gpm of X...For design purposes we designed for a 20 degree delta-t on the secondary for a 180 supply and a return of 160 degree water.
(8*180) + (4*160) = 12X in the primary loop
1140 + 640/12 = 148 Degree Water blending in the primary loop before the secondary could takes its needed under these design conditions.
So you wouldn't have 160 degree water returning in the secondary because you can only make 148 degree water to supply the secondary. In other words, you'd never get the supply water temp you needed through the heat exchanger. You'd get the flow you wanted but that's about it.
Don't confuse flow with btu/hr because your just moving it. What the HX can emmitt/transfer is based on the water temp/flow that btu/hr is flowing in."The bitter taste of a poor installation remains much longer than the sweet taste of the lowest price."This post was edited by an admin on August 13, 2013 8:09 PM.

Common PipingIf the tees were 20 ft apart it would be easier for me to see the discharge of the secondary loop being swept away into the building. These tees are 8 inches apart ( 6 inch steel pipe ). Since we can't have less in the common piping than we do on each side of it I say that the common pipe has to be used by the secondary loop during it's operation regardless of flow in the primary. I'm thinking that there would be a " mixed temperature " entering the secondary loop either way. The application is cooling , but no need to flip the math. But if we started with 8 , lost 4 , go back to 8 gpm I say that can't happen. That 4 is still there and in use by the secondary is my thinking. I'm sure I'm wrong on this Chris.
The welders piped correctly to the piping drawing and did not see the controls diagram that the engineer is hanging on to ( go figure ). But thanks for the help Zman.This post was edited by an admin on August 14, 2013 4:58 AM.

In Diagram 1You have 8 leaving the primary circ. You pick up 4 at the secondary return so you have 12 flowing in between the tees, 4 leaves to the secondary supply tee leaving 8 flowing back down the primary return.
In diagram 2. You have 8 leaving the primary circ. 4 Enters the secondary supply so you have 4 left flowing in between your tees. 4 comes back at the secondary return and 8 flows back down the primary return.
Always remember. What enters a tee must leave a tee.
Either way you have the same 4gpm flow into the secondary. The question again is what is that water temp? You are move 4gpm of x piped either way. Diagram 1 is going to get you in trouble from a water temp standpoint not from a flow standpoint."The bitter taste of a poor installation remains much longer than the sweet taste of the lowest price."This post was edited by an admin on August 14, 2013 7:18 AM.

WellI'll be on floor 2 with the 2 inch fire hose if anyone needs me.

In Diagram 2Your mixed water temp is going to happen where the secondary return enters the primary return. In diagram 1 your mixed temp is going to happen after the secondary return which is going to drop the temp entering into the primary supply before the secondary supply.. Not a good thing..Your secondary is always going to consistently see cooler water. Might not be a bad thing for radiant cooling.. All depends I guess. What is the design water temp flowing out the primary circulator? What was the water temp design flowing to the secondary? GPM design for both would also be help. It's just simple math."The bitter taste of a poor installation remains much longer than the sweet taste of the lowest price."

It's a repipeAnd I am almost certain that I will see a lower temperature entering the secondary versus leaving the pump ( mixed temperature ) after we correct the piping to the controls diagram. But I have no numbers to support my suspicion so that means drain , cut , weld.
Just so you know the main is 10 inch and the secondary is 6 inch weld pipe. The purpose is free cooling of the main chilled water loop using condenser water as the primary cooling medium. It is not going to work regardless of how it is piped so I'll be on the second floor dumping the 10 inch main down so that we can open the system .
Chris August 15, 2013 @ 5:45 PM

Based On Diagram 2You won't see a mix in the secondary. The mix will happen where the primary return and secondary return intersect.
See if I can make this easy for you to see
10gpm 100 degree water leaves Pri Circ Pump
5 gpm of 100 degree water enters the secondary
5gpm of 100 degree water flows down the primary between the two tees
5gpm of 80 degree waters leave the secondary return
10gpm of X is now in the primary return
(5 x 100) + (5 x 80) = 10X
500 + 400 = 900/10 = 90 Degree Water is in the primary return at the point both the primary return and secondary return intersect.
Do you know the water temp and flow rate leaving the pri circ?
Do you know the flow rate entering the secondary?
Do you know the design delta-t in the secondary?
Answer these and I'll give you the temp the math is here for you if you want to do it yourself."The bitter taste of a poor installation remains much longer than the sweet taste of the lowest price."This post was edited by an admin on August 15, 2013 5:49 PM.
