Brenda Tucker thinks many people know about Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks.
She hopes the annual open house at the Black History Gallery on Gallery Place in Elizabethtown allows area residents to learn more about other important black figures such as George Washington Carver and Fredrick Douglass.
The gallery, at 100 Gallery Place in Elizabethtown, hosts its annual open house from 1-4 p.m. Saturday. The Delta Sigma Theta sorority has hosted the open house for about 20 years, said Tucker, a caretaker for the gallery.
Caretakers hope the gallery is open every other Saturday during Black History Month from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The gallery is free and open to the public.
The gallery is full of newspaper clippings, magazines and other items depicting important people and moments from black history compiled by Elizabethtown native Emma Reno Connor, one of Hodgenville's first black preschool teachers, Tucker said.
"Anything that she could get her hands on, she found it to be an artifact that would help to tell the story a little bit better," she said.
Emma Reno Connor's husband, Charles Connor, used those materials to further community education about black history by continuing the gallery until his death.
The couple's niece has kept the gallery going following Charles Connor's death, and has worked with Tucker and her husband to renovate the gallery.
Tucker said Charles Connor would have wanted them to continue the gallery.
"In honor of that dream that she had and in honor of Mr. Connor's legacy, we want to do everything that we can to keep that legacy going," she said.
People have to learn about their past to create a better future, Tucker said.
She is proud to be surrounded at the gallery by examples of people who have continued the long journey toward equality and a better society.
"We are not a forgotten race," she said. "We may have been disenfranchised because someone said it, but that did not define who we were, and certainly not who we have become. I am proud."
Tucker hopes visitors this month will each learn one or two things that they can apply to their lives and give them hope about the future.
"You have to know about it," she said. "You have to know what occurred on that journey in order to continue that journey."

Published March 1, 1997.
When developing our Irish soda bread recipe, our first tests focused on flour. A loaf made with all-purpose flour produced a doughy, heavy bread with a thick crust. To soften the crumb, we added some cake flour to the mix, and this made a difference. With only the four basic ingredients of flour, buttermilk, baking soda, and salt, our soda bread recipe was lacking in flavor and still a little tough; we turned to sugar and butter. The sugar added flavor without making the bread sweet and the butter softened the dough just enough with out making it overly rich.
Dear Friend,
These days, it's pretty easy to get free recipes on the Internet. I'm sure a search for "roast chicken recipe" will turn up thousands and thousands. But, as with so much on the web, you should tread lightly if you don't know the source.
In America's Test Kitchen, our motto is, "Recipes that Work," and our mission is to be your trusted source for recipes that work every time you use them. Our test cooks spend their days obsessively testing recipes until they offer consistently great results. As we like to say here, "We make the mistakes so you don't have to."
CooksIllustrated.com is the only place you can find not only 20 years' worth of our foolproof recipes, but also objective ratings of cookware, and blind taste tests for hundreds of everyday supermarket ingredients (hey, without the proper ingredients and equipment you can still run into problems — no matter how good the recipe).
Let me make a simple, no-nonsense offer. Try out our website FREE for a 14-Day, No-Hassle Trial Offer. I'm pretty confident that CooksIllustrated.com will quickly become an invaluable resource for everything from quick, weeknight suppers to huge, holiday feasts for family and friends.

Rectangular tray suitable for use with the other Programma 8 components. Size: 4 modules X 6 modules. Mirror-polished finish. Design: Franco Sargiani and Eija Helander for Alessi, 1975.
This project of small modular and stackable household items originally designed in the 1970s retains its timelessness today. Based on the same premises of the "international-style" architecture of the period, this design concept radically overhauled the implements used for table and kitchen service, oriented towards maximum practicality and flexible use.
Dimensions: 20.8" X 11.5"
Designer: Eija Helander

Alessi is a family owned Italian design company, founded in 1921. Giovanni Alessi, a talented sheet metal worker, produced items by hand for the table and home out of copper, brass and nickel-silver. He was later joined by his son Carlo who was responsible for many of the designs produced in the 1930s and early 1940s. In the mid 1940s Alessi began to work with outside designers. The current Alessi catalog is the result of a collaboration with over 500 designers from all over the world.
"A true work of design must be able to move people, to convey feelings, to trigger memories, to surprise, to go against the grain. From this point of view, design intended to conjure up images in people's minds, which makes them a bit happier, still has tremendous potential." — Alberto Alessi

My mother and cousin are done with their shopping. They finished weeks ago - and both are far behind my aunt who finished in August.
That's not me. I never even make my list until the day after Thanksgiving - which the stores have christened Black Friday, but when I look at all the names I have to buy for, everything goes red.
With shopping early you always run the risk that the person you're buying for will have bought the item for themselves, or not be into that style anymore.
My early-shopping relatives are not concerned with unwanted or outdated items, because returns are the problem of the recipient. They ease their conscience by always including the receipt.
I've never minded last-minute shopping and being out with the crowds - probably my city girl roots. I kind of like the hustle-bustle of festively decorated shopping malls and I've met some pretty nice people while standing in long lines.
There is the stress squeezing such marathon shopping between work, family, life and television - but, for me - that's part of the fun.
I've always held to the philosophy that Christmas shopping itself is a piece of cake - chocolate fudge with a creamy mousse filling - I could get everything done in a day or so if not for one small problem: money.
Though Christmas comes the same time every year, I've never planned for
A few years ago I added another layer of stress to my holiday season by doing part of my shopping online.
On the surface, this seems like it should remove stress - just point, click and buy.
However, then I'm in a panic about things. Will it get to me - or to whomever we sent it - on time? Will it arrive at all? Will the right item be sent - unbroken with all the pieces included? Will a passerby liberate the valuable package sitting unattended on my front porch, leaving me to fight with the sender about not receiving it?
All those worries have been for naught - I've never had a problem with items ordered online.
About 10 years ago Dan and I started exchanging gifts with this couple in Colorado.
Dan and Chris had worked together and got along really well - enough to socialize after work - a real rarity for Dan and, from what I hear from Chris's wife, unheard of for him as well.
After they moved we started to send each other Christmas gifts, trying each year to find something as unique as this friendship.
They've sent us candy, teas, jam, Omaha steaks and some rustic wall art.
We've sent them some Southwest seasonings I bought at a local craft fair, Graber olives, bird-watching books from Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, these cool soaps from a street vendor and the most delicious Salt Water Taffy from Upland's Aunt Bee's Antiques and Confections.
This year I wanted to send them something I discovered while in New York visiting my family.
My Uncle Sonny took us to this farmers' market where "he knows da own-as and gets every-ting half-price."
Besides produce they sold salsas by Jake & Amos, a Pennsylvania company boasting its use of Amish recipes in their canned fruits and vegetable products.
I tried the corn salsa and loved it so much I brought back six jars in my suitcase for friends and co-workers - yes, it weighed a ton.
And yes, they do have a website that I could have ordered from online, but then it wouldn't be bringing them back something from New York.
But now I needed to order more, so I went online. It was just the perfect thing to send to our Colorado comrades.
I logged on and was delighted with the selection; a minimum of six jars needed to be ordered to have them shipped - no problem.
I ordered corn, pineapple and bean salsa, something called Amish Peanut Butter Schmier, some pickles and a jar of relish.
I tried to time it perfectly to get the order about 10 days before Christmas.
Last night our doorbell rang and when we went to answer it we saw a good-sized package on our porch.
It was from our friends in Colorado. We hurriedly opened it, wondering what cool thing they sent this year.
We were stunned when it was six jars of edibles from Jake & Amos - not only that, but the exact thing we sent them.
Weird, it was like we were connected somehow. That is until I read the invoice - the one that explained all.
I had switched the "bill to" and the "ship to" addresses.
Ho, ho - no!

Oxoid Launches New Rapid Culture Method for Salmonella in Food
New Oxoid Salmonella Rapid Culture Method offers simpler methodology
and faster results
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new culture method for the improved isolation, differentiation and identification of Salmonella species from foods. The Oxoid Salmonella Rapid Culture Method has been developed to ensure excellent recovery of Salmonella, providing presumptive positive colonies in just 42 hours – some 24 to 48 hours earlier than by traditional culture methods.
The Oxoid Salmonella Rapid Culture Method combines the features of two Oxoid products – ONE Broth-Salmonella and Oxoid Salmonella Chromogenic Medium Mark II (OSCM II). ONE Broth-Salmonella is a highly nutritious enrichment broth containing a specific growth promoter to ensure excellent recovery of stressed and damaged Salmonella cells, whilst inhibiting the growth of competing micro-organisms. This highly effective medium allows enrichment to be performed in a single 18 hour incubation, eliminating the need for a secondary enrichment.
Following enrichment, the sample is plated onto OSCM II - the first in a new class of chromogenic culture media to utilise Inhibigen™ technology. This new technology improves the recovery and differentiation of Salmonella by selectively reducing background flora, allowing clearer visualisation of target colonies in mixed cultures. Chromogens within the medium then enable differentiation of Salmonella colonies (bright purple) from any remaining organisms that are able to grow, such as Klebsiella and Enterobacter, thus reducing the number of false-positives requiring confirmation.
In a recent evaluation, OSCM II demonstrated enhanced sensitivity and specificity when compared to traditional Salmonella culture media (XLD and HE) and a commercially available chromogenic medium1.
Oxoid's new Salmonella Rapid Culture Method allows presumptive positive Salmonella colonies to be obtained with minimal delay and without the need for specialised equipment, making this method accessible to every food microbiology laboratory.
Cheryl Mooney, industrial applications manager, Oxoid, commented, "The identification of Salmonella contamination is a critical function in food microbiology laboratories and delays can have an enormous impact on the efficiency and economy of businesses. Not only will the Oxoid Salmonella Rapid Culture Method save time by providing presumptive positive colonies in just 42 hours, but it also saves on resources by reducing the number of colonies requiring confirmation."
For further information about the Oxoid Salmonella Rapid Culture Method, please speak to your local Oxoid representative, telephone +44 1256 841144, fax +44 1256 329728 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

The No. 15 MSOE Raiders scored three times in the third period but the No. 7 Adrian Bulldogs took the MCHA contest 4-3 Saturday afternoon at the Kern Center in Milwaukee.
The Raiders trailed 3-0 entering the third and freshman forward Cody Gancher scored 30 seconds into the frame from junior defenseman Michael Thompson and senior forward Bradley Tierney. At the 5:55 mark of the third, Gancher scored again, this time on a power play from senior defenseman Carl Lindblad and senior forward Jordan Keizer.

Less than 30 seconds later, sophomore forward Kevin LoGiudice brought MSOE within one again. His goal was set up by junior forward Kevin Media and freshman forward Evan Wilson. Josh Ranalli also scored for the Bulldogs.
Freshman goalie Nick Kohn made 30 saves for the Raiders. MSOE (11-7-1, 8-5-1 MCHA) will host Concordia-Wisconsin Friday at 7:05 p.m. at the Kern Center.

Homeowners in Georgia do not enjoy the same protection from foreclosure that those in other states have. Here, depending on the lender, the foreclosure process can begin one day after the grace period if an owner is late with the mortgage payment.
State Rep. Billy Mitchell is looking to change that. Mitchell, who represents the 88th District that includes Lithonia, Tucker and Stone Mountain, has pre-filed legislation that would require a 90-day notice and a right to cure the debt before the foreclosure process can begin.
The proposed bill, HB 899, will be introduced when the 2010 legislative session begins on Jan. 11, Mitchell said.
"Georgia is in a minority of states that have non-judicial foreclosure, (which is) a process where a home is taken away without going to court to show just cause," Mitchell said. "In most states you have to appear before a judge where a homeowner can explain their situation."
Georgia has the seventh-highest foreclosure rate in the nation according to RealtyTrac, the leading marketplace for foreclosure properties. Georgia's foreclosure rate is up 25.06 percent from last year and up 6.69 percent from the second quarter of 2009 to the third quarter. There were 11,820 homes in DeKalb County foreclosed on in the third quarter of 2009, according to the Web site.
"In Georgia, your home can literally be taken away if you're one day past the grace period," Mitchell said. "Once the foreclosure process starts, you can't come out of foreclosure even if you have the money. It's up to the banks to allow you to make payments."
Under HB 899, homeowners have a chance to get caught up on their mortgage payments without the immediate threat of losing their homes.
"DeKalb County has been hit among the hardest in the state in foreclosures," Mitchell said. "As legislators," we have the ability to bring about a law that will help people who are going through hard times."
The bill has been endorsed by the Rev. Jesse Jackson and a number of politicians.
Ken Hatcher, a senior political consultant with the Georgia Association of Realtors, said his organization will be watching the progress of the bill closely. Hatcher said the group's 24-member board will meet every Monday during the legislative session, but he has not yet looked at all the pre-filings.
"Billy's a good friend. He's reasonable and a fair-minded person. We get involved with any legislation that affects the lending industry," Hatcher said. "We have a long history of following closely any legislation that affects the lending industry."
Once HB 899 is formally taken up in the House, it will be assigned a committee, Mitchell said. It will then be presented to the entire House for a vote and then the Senate. Mitchell said he expects the proposed bill to be considered right away. If it passes both the House and the Senate, it could become law by July 2010, Mitchell said.
"Ninety days is a moderate period of time, and we don't want to harm the banking industry," Mitchell said. "We would be putting into law the best practices of better banks, anyway."
Mitchell said he believes lawmakers will see the benefits of the proposal for all homeowners, not just those who fall behind on their mortgages.
"The bill would protect all consumers, even those who pay on time," Mitchell said. "If people have homes being foreclosed on in their neighborhoods, their property values may go down. This will keep homes from being foreclosed on so quickly and keep property values stable."

Why valid HTML code is crucial to SEO?
by Roseanne van Langenberg
Why valid HTML code is crucial to your web site's search engine optimization efforts and subsequent high rankings:
Many webmasters and newcomers to web page design overlook a crucial aspect of web site promotion: the validity of the HTML code.
What is valid HTML code?
Most web pages are written in HTML.
As for every language, HTML has its own grammar, vocabulary and syntax, and each document written in HTML is supposed to follow these rules.
Like any language, HTML constantly changes. As
HTML has become a relative complex language, it's very easy to make mistakes ... and we do know by now the favorable weight the new msn.com beta search engine places on proper coding practise ... see a recent article on msn.com coding requirements.
HTML code that is not following the official rules is called invalid HTML code. Why is valid HTML code important to search engine optimization and your whole
Search engines have to parse the HTML code ofyour web site to find the relevant content. If your HTML code contains errors, search engines might not be able to find the content on the page, and there ends your seo efforts and quest for high rankings of that page.
Search engine crawler programs obey HTML standards. They only can index your web site if it is compliant to the HTML standard. If there's a mistake in your web page code, they might stop crawling your web site and they might lose what they've collected so far because of the error.
Although most major search engines can deal with minor errors in HTML code, a single missing bracket in your HTML code can be the reason your web page cannot be found in search engines.
If you don't close some tags properly, or if some important tags are missing, search engines might ignore the complete content of that page.
How can you check the validity of your HTML code? Fortunately, there are free services that allow you to check the validity of your HTML code.
The search engine optimization community's HTML validator is the W3C HTML Validator.
It is the service that checks HTML documents for conformance to W3C HTML and XHTML recommendations and other HTML standards.
Just enter the address of a web page at the free W3C HTML Validator and the Validator will tell you what errors are on that page.
Although not all HTML errors will cause problems for your search engine rankings, some of them can keep web spiders from indexing your web pages and spoil your search engine optimization efforts.
Valid HTML code makes it easier for search engine spiders to index your site so you should make sure that at least the biggest mistakes in your HTML code are corrected.
.. run your web pages through the W3C validator, make the recommended alterations and the new MSN.com beta search will love you .. the MSN search engine places a high value on proper coding practise.

Tapping the hot asphalt jungle for energy
Pavement, it turns out, is a pretty good place to look for free energy.
A handful of Massachusetts researchers on Monday published a paper detailing a technique for using water-carrying pipes to convert the built-up heat in asphalt roads into usable energy.
Released at the International Symposium on Asphalt Pavements and Environment in Zurich, Switzerland, the paper argues that asphalt roads have a number of advantages over solar-electric panels as a source of distributed energy.
"The significance of this concept lies in the fact that the massive installed base of parking lots and roadways creates a low-cost solar collector … Read more

"We will be posting these women very soon, according to this order, by diverting staff from other places and making them available in Delhi," police spokesman Rajan Bhagat said. At present, women comprise 7% of police forces, he said.
Candidates will be recruited within four months, and training will take an additional nine months, he said.
Bhagat denied that the directive was issued solely because of the rape, but said it is aimed at helping women.
"We need overall more women in the police station as other women feel more comfortable with female officers," he said. "If all women complaints are attended to promptly, situations like that of the gang-raped medical student may have been avoided."
The interior minister said he is working with security officials to strengthen laws regarding rape and assault.
In the state of Haryana, about 80 miles northwest of Delhi, officials plan to publicize the profiles of rapists. The state will publish the names, addresses and case numbers of convicted rapists on a website.
"In doing so, we hope to curb crime against women," said Laik Ram Dabbas, director of the state crime records bureau.
The website could be active this month, Dabbas said.

A lawyer and bankruptcy attorney, Ballentine knows well human behavior as is relates to money.
"If we all come together and just open up accounts - not give your money away, but just open up accounts so that the Banks will have the position to be able to lend of the money to help the community - then people will have accountability because they have ownership and they're tied into it. And once they have an ownership, they're going to treat it so much differently than they're treating it right now," he said.
In a nutshell, the NBA and Ballentine will officially announce "The People's Economic Movement," on August 28, coinciding with the unveiling of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. memorial in Washington. Ballentine will encourage people to open accounts in Black banks, which will in turn establish community programs to enrich their customers and neighborhoods.
NBA President Michael Grant sees the self-help movement as a catalyst to the stimulation of "much-needed economic development at our nation's urban core."
He said in a statement, "By depositing our money in minority banks, getting mortgages, small business loans or loans for college tuition from banks in our communities, consumers begin a process of harnessing the economic strength of the masses in a way that creates direct benefits to their communities which are still suffering from the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression."
Big banks have gotten a bad name during the economic downturn, largely due to their receiving bailout money while record numbers of people lost their homes due to predatory mortgage loans and unemployment. But, Black-owned banks are in a different category.
"Literally, the predatory lending, it wasn't from the small community banks. That was from the big banks...The banks that we're dealing with, the members of the NBA, were responsible and conservative and accurate in what they were doing as far as their lending practices in comparison to other banks," Ballentine said.
Blacks have suffered most in the economic downtown, including unemployment rates that are consistently nearly twice the national average.
The "People's Economic Movement" will bring hope, Grant said during the press conference. "This campaign is allowing us to give folks something to rally around that they can believe in...This is an opportunity for us. We've decided that the NBA can and should play a galvanizing role to pull together elements of our community to start making economic development and finance an issue of importance to our communities."
Ballentine's vision has already been put to the test.
Kim Saunders, president and CEO of the 103-year-old M&F Bank in Durham, was applauded by her colleagues at the press conference when she said her bank established more than 60 new accounts in one day as Ballentine used his radio show to encourage people to open accounts during a National Community Reinvestment Day. "In our Charlotte Branch, we had standing room only," she recalled.
She said her bank has a strong relationship with faith-based communities, does hundreds of financial literacy workshops a year, has more than 1,000 new accounts, including 225 youth savings accounts and have garnered more than a million dollars in deposits.
Saunders is now on radio every Friday featuring customers talking about their M&F experience in learning about banking and establishing relationships that put them in homes and their own businesses.
Small banks teach people everything from how to write a check, balance a check book or pay their bills, Saunders said. "It's been an amazing campaign...I think this is really what we are called to do."
The "People's Economic Movement" is also expected to benefit community development overall. There are approximately 38 Black-owned banks in America. Because of limited deposits, none of them has a lending capacity of more than $3.5 billion, but, in the past, they have pooled their resources in order to fund major projects.
The Rev. Deforest B. Soaries, Jr., senior pastor of the First Baptist Church of Somerset, N.J., underscored the importance of the involvement of churches in the campaign.
"After you come to God, the second thing you do in our church is get out of debt and develop a budget and live within your means and pay yourself first," Soaries said at the press conference. "This is not just the role of the church, but the responsibility of the church. My lifestyle depends on people putting money into the plate, which means that my responsibility is to help them with the money they don't put in the plate."
A long time civil rights and community advocate Soaries said people need an option to institutions that set up in neighborhoods to rob people of their money.
"The unbanked and under-banked are using check cashing joints, rent to own, money orders and pay day lenders," he said.
He also quoted statistics that say one out of five African-Americans don't have a bank account and another 33 percent have bank accounts but don't use them. He calculated this to mean 54 percent of Black people in the U.S. are "unbanked or under-banked".
The NBA - with African-American, Hispanic-American, Asian-American and Native-American owned banks in 29 cities across the nation - is uniquely positioned to partner with Ballentine to change these conditions, Grant says. Yet, Black banks receive little support from potential customers.
According to an NBA statement, "Economists have estimated that while the African-American community has over one trillion dollars in disposable income a year, it has been estimated that African-American owned banks manage less than 5 percent of the wealth in the communities that they serve."
That's about to change, said Grant, referring to the partnership between M&F and Ballentine: "We've got to take this model of success and build on it."

PEMBROKE — Two candidates filed this week for seats on the 21-member Lumbee Tribal Council, and no one new filed for the chairman's seat.
In District 5, which encompasses the communities of Oxendine and Prospect, Ruby B. Locklear filed for the seat currently held by Kernice Locklear, who is ineligible to seek a third consecutive term.
A Robeson County native, Ruby Locklear is a certified school social worker with the Public Schools of Robeson County.
"My vision for the Lumbee Tribe is unity and perseverance. The Lumbee Tribal Government guided by our constitution must collaboratively deliver educational, social and economic programs to the tribal members," she said in a statement. "As your district Tribal Council board member, I will bring a new image of fairness, cooperation and justice as I fulfill my duties to the Lumbee people. I solicit your vote on Nov. 13 to ensure each tribal member has equal representation."
Locklear graduated from Pembroke High School, and holds an undergraduate and graduate degree in social work from The University of North Carolina at Pembroke.
While at the university, Locklear received the Faculty Scholarship Award and graduated cum laude. She was a university marshal, received the Outstanding Leadership and Service Award, and is a member of the Alpha Delta Mu National Social Worker Honor Society.
Currently, she serves as a member of Robeson County Public Library's board of trustees. She is also a member of Prospect United Methodist Church, where she has held numerous positions.
Locklear is married to Paul Locklear Jr. and lives in Prospect. They have four children.
Locklear is the second candidate to file as a candidate for the District 5 seat, joining Millicent Strickland Collins.
Collins has 20 years of local government experience and is the grants administrator for Robeson County. Shesays she has helped to win $6.5 million in grants for the county that have created 250 jobs.
Jimmy Hunt, a former member of the Tribal Council, filed this week as a candidate for the District 14 seat currently held by Homer Fields. District 14 encompasses East Howellsville, Wisharts and Britts.
Hunt did not provide The Robesonian with any biographical information or a photo.
The candidate filing period continues through Friday. Candidates for any of the positions, all of which are for three-year terms, can file at the Lumbee Tribal Housing Complex on N.C. 711 in Pembroke on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The filing fee for tribal chairman is $500, while the fee for those wishing to win a seat on the council is $250.

Advice needed on a Replacement System
I am limping along with a 100K Bryant 90+ furnace and a 4 ton 10 SEER AC unit. The house is ~ 4300 sq ft. with three zones of similar size. The furnace has a bad secondary HX and the compressor was making bad sounds at the end of the cooling season. Located in Michigan. Since the house was new in '94, the outside walls have been re-sided with 1" foam (taped) added, windows properly sealed, additional ceiling insulation added, etc. to minimize air infiltration and improve insulation. I have just received three quotes with multiple options in each and am overwhelmed with the choices of Bryant, Amana, and Lennox and a huge range of manufacturer rebates, tax credits and Utility rebates. I have been on a steep learning curve in the past few days and stumbled across this site which appears to contain excellent advice.
One of the contractors has performed a load calc (do not know result yet) but the other two have just responded with 100K and 110K for 90% - 98% AFUE furnaces.
On the A/C side, the options range from a 13 SEER to an 18 SEER two stage 4 ton unit with significant increases in price. We typically only use the A/C for 4 months a year and are on the boat for two to three of those with the thermostat set at 80 deg. F. On the heating side, only the main floor is heated to 70 deg. F consistently. The other two zones are maintained at ~60 deg. F with mostly damper bypass and the occasional damper opening from observing the system. These two zones are used at 70 deg. F about 25% of the time.
Our zones are configured with a total of five dampers on the duct runs. There are no dampers on the returns. The dampers and control board are Honeywell Trol-a-Temp. We have three Honeywell Chronotherm III thermostats
Our "Best" Lennox quote is for a SLP98 110K and an XC16-48 with icomfort Wi-Fi thermostat; the "Next Best" is an EL296 110K and an XC16-48 with a CS5000 thermostat.
Another "Best" quote is for a Bryant 987MA Evolution and a 187B Evolution AC with the option of a Wi-Fi thermostat and and new zone dampers at a huge upgrade cost.
Another "Better" quote is for an Amana AMVM 96% and a ASXC18 AC again with the option for a Wi-Fi thermostat and new zone dampers.
Does anyone have any input to help me make a choice? I am particularly interested in:
1) Should I get an load calculation for each quote? I am a bit concerned about going with a 110K when the existing 100K 90% unit has worked well and I have made some improvements to the building envelope.
2) Will a two stage A/C give me significant improvements in my circumstances?
3) Will the best Lennox system with a Harmony III control work with the existing zone dampers and maintain all of the features/capabilities of the furnace?
4) Do I need to install new dampers, etc with the Bryant and Amana systems?
5) What thermostats/sensors would be the best choices for each proposed system?
Obviously up front cost is a factor in my ultimate decision but we plan to be here for the life of the system (15-20 years). I want to end up with a high quality, efficient and reliable system that takes into account total ownership costs. I do not want to end up with the "ultimate" system that can never pay back its increased cost over its life.
I probably have not asked all the right questions but hope to learn from your expertise so I can ask some more of the right ones.
Thanks for any advice you can give me.
Great questions.
1) Should I get an load calculation for each quote? I am a bit concerned about going with a 110K when the existing 100K 90% unit has worked well and I have made some improvements to the building envelope. I highly recommend getting a Manual J from any contractor. One you have made some adjustments with your insulation and other improvements. Each of the three brands you have bids on do not all produce the same amount of cooling; close, but a manual J & S will be the first start to verify if the equipment selected is the correct fit.
2) Will a two stage A/C give me significant improvements in my circumstances? 2-stage equipment is nice, but if it is not in your budget look at a single stage system, but I do recommend the variable speed furnaces they seem to be quoting. However, if you are going to keep 3-zones then the Lennox Harmony will require a 2-stage condenser. Another unit by Amana would be the ASXC16
3) Will the best Lennox system with a Harmony III control work with the existing zone dampers and maintain all of the features/capabilities of the furnace? I like this option in that it does not require a by-pass and yes the honeywell ARD's (2-wire) will work with Harmony. The Harmony board will even work with your existing thermostats. ** another reason to get a manual J is so the technician can properly adjust the dip switches for the zoning board. Hopefully it was your Lennox contractor who is running the manual J.
4) Do I need to install new dampers, etc with the Bryant and Amana systems? I am not 100% on Braynt's model #'s, but if it is similar to the Carrier's Infinity yes new dampers. 3-wires. Amana will most likely be using a 3rd party zoning like Honeywell or something else. You can go back with a new Honeywell zoning.
5) What thermostats/sensors would be the best choices for each proposed system? Most of those quoted are good. Will you be using the Wi-Fi feature for your thermostats? A good programmable thermostat is all you need. On the Lennox the Icomfort is great, but I like the CS7000 over the 5000. I believe Amana has a new stat from Emerson that is good too.

1) I suspect that heat capacity required is << 80,000 BTU/ Hr with ALL heat zones at 70'F.
_ What is your current usage of natural gas per month?
_ Does your current system run more than 40 minutes out of an hour when it is 0'F outside?
_ ... No, .:. 80,000 BTU/Hr is More than adequate.
_ I doubt that selecting lower capacity would provide the needed air flow for A/C.
_ I believe that the Bryant model 987MA will provide the efficiency and Comfort that you're looking for.
2) NO, not in MI. Does your current A/C system consistently provide < 50% Relative Humidity?Designer Dan

i would want a load calculation, i would also want a 2 stage furnace .as for the ac 2 stage ac systems do work better with zone controled units .i would also upgrade the trol a temp the bryant evolution with the zone control is a very nice set up

Made the decision and now the proud owner of a new furnace and A/C
Thanks for the advice, particularly to get a load calc.
The guy doing the load calc came up with a 70K 96% 2 stage unit which provided some margin and a 4 ton single stage A/C. and decided to go with him. Was just not happy with others who seemed to oversize the furnace. Contractor did an expedited install of the furnace Thursday as my existing furnace had died completely, working until 6:30pm to get it wrapped up after finding some zone problems. Very pleased with the quality of the work done by the two installers and a service tech.
Even got a "free" energy assessment Friday with blower door test, etc. that lasted over four hours.
I suspect the 100 and 110K units proposed by others would never get out of first stage or would never modulate.
After a night of 4 deg. F temps, furnace ran fine and had no trouble keeping up with demand so sizing looks OK. Will look even better when I get my ductwork sealed and air infiltration reduced.
Thanks again for the feedback provided by the forum members.!

Make sure the 70K Furnace has a 4 ton blower drive on it. Many contractors will not match up the airflow of the furnace to the AC. I know a lot of brands do not have a furnace that small that has a 4 ton blower on furnaces below the 80K size.
If you go with a modulating furnace the new thermostats may not work with your existing zoning or not provide all features. Most modulating furnaces communicate and do not use 24V systems.Check out my YouTube channel - http://www.youtube.com/user/skyheating1 We have customer testimonials, product reviews and more!

I agree with Baldloonie. Something is missing here. Doubt if this is last time forum hears from OP.
I would be interested in knowing exactly what models were installed and scope of work.

Hi BaldLoonie:
Can you tell me what does not make sense?
Some info on house: 4350 sq ft. on three levels, 1900 on each of two lower levels, balance on top level. Lowest level is at least 50% below grade with full exposure to west. House is 2x6 construction, R-19 walls with 1" taped foam over 5/8" OSB, fully taped Tyvek, low E Pella windows. Attic space is heavily insulated ~ R-50. No windows on N, three on E, two on S and W wall is about 30% glass.
Blower on the furnace can handle a 4 ton A/C per my contractor.
Thanks again for the responses.

20 yr old house in Michigan. Installed a Bryant 986T, two stage furnace with a Bryant 116B A/C with the recommended coil, new lines, Aprilaire MERV 10 filter and Aprilaire 600 bypass humidifier.. Currently using old Chronotherm III thermostats with a Honeywell Mabs II control board for three zones.
Blower door test shows about 4 ACH 50 pascals if that helps. Can drop this to less than 3 by taking care of three or four big air leaks.

To your south, where it is a tad warmer in the summer and warmer in the winter, I don't think I've ever seen a combo like that sold. If a house is so well built that despite its size can heat on 70K, sure ought to cool with less than 4 tons. I'd expect to see your combo much further south. Just seemed strange...

So Far So Good
The 80K furnace handled some recent sub zero weather with no problems heating all three zones and did not run at high stage continuously. I would have to conclude that it is sized OK. I guess I will have to wait for the warm weather to see how the AC performs.
Thanks for your input.

Pinot Noir
Suitable for vegetarians
I thoroughly enjoyed this wine. Lovely flavour and depth. So much so I ordered more!
How others rated this review
Report this review
Very average and unusually harsh and tannic for a Pinot. Not much fruitiness coming through at all. Definitely a one off purchase on this one!
Very pleased with this bottle, a little heavier than other Pinot's I have had but in a good way. Nice Jammy flavours, I opened a good 2 hours before drinking with great results.
Smooth and classy, but maybe something lacking - compared with Burgundy at 2-3 times the price! One-dimensional?? I'm getting over a cold! Don't let me put you off.But it doesn't inspire the urgency to have the next glass.
This was my review. I have changed my mind; my taste buds must have been numbed by my cold. I now find it as good as a lot of Burgundies at twice the price and very acceptable. I would give it four stars.
This is one of my favourite French wines for under a tenner. It's light and fruity enough to drink on its own but is equally comfortable with a roast duck. For me it's less of a Burgundy and more a Marlborough Pinot, probably because it's sweeter (not sweet!) than most burgundy's. It's worth a shot if you're a fan of new world Pinots - many of which are more expensive. Never had the '09 which people tell me was even better. Must've been excellent.
The 2009 was, like other reviewers have said, a belter. Having just tried the new stock of 2010 I am disappointed to find this vintage nowhere as good. The 2009's fruit intensity, grip, and tannic structure is not there and it is more dilute. I've tasted a lot worse sub £10 pinot, but the new vintage is a bit of a let down.
Gorgeous Pinot Noir at a bargain price
"This wine is, without a shadow of a doubt, my favourite Pinot Noir under £10. On the nose it offers ripe cherry and strawberry fruit alongside a smokey sweet spice. This wine does not disappoint on the palate. The cherry and strawberry on the nose carry through to the palate along with fresh plum, juicy raspberry and a hint of rose petal. It has a great mouthfeel and a fantastic finish. Perfect with guinea fowl, cold meats and salads or equally fantastic on its own!"
Keep up to date with top offers and new arrivals, you could win £100 worth of wine!
