To remain active following retirement and to be continually associated in some way with Purdue
What is the most interesting or funny experience you have had at the kiosk?

What do you like most about volunteering at the kiosk?
I like directing prospective students and their parents to various buildings for meetings, and visiting with former colleagues passing through the Union.
Where is your favorite spot on campus?
There are several. The Union because it buzzes with activity plus it's architecture; Slayter Center and the hill for concerts, football pre-game events; the Memorial Mall between classes watching students walking to and from their next class.

What Would Your Friends Do to Promote Your Book?
It's not too surprising that Brad Meltzer was able to rope Joss Whedon, Damon Lindelof, and Brian K. Vaughn into appearing in the "book trailer" for his new novel, The Book of Lies, raising unsettling questions about Cain and Abel and the shooting death of the father of Superman's co-creator. (Yeah, I know; it makes a little more sense when you watch the film.) After all, Meltzer knows all those guys through the comic book world—I'm pretty sure I've even seen him doing panel discussions with some of them.
But Christopher Hitchens? A.J. Jacobs?
It turns out that Meltzer and Hitchens are both represented by Kneerim & Williams. And Jacobs? I couldn't piece together the connection through Google, so I shot Jacobs an email and asked him. He called back and said they've known each other for years—introduced early in their respective careers by their then-mutual editor, Rob Weisbach. After I confessed that the trailer had compelled me to pull my galley of The Book of Lies from a stack of other BookExpo giveaways, Jacobs confessed that he doesn't usually read thrillers, but he started this one to "get a taste" before shooting his scenes… "and I'll admit it: He got me hooked!"
(Update: Meltzer discusses the trailer's conception with Entertainment Weekly's Ken Tucker: "I had seen so many book trailers which were exactly like every other book commercial you see: scary-voice-guy tells you what it says on the back of the book jacket." Man, I wish. A lot of times, you don't even get scary-voice guy, just a bunch of title cards…)

An Encyclopedia of Claims, Frauds, and Hoaxes of the Occult and Supernatural

faith healing When organized medicine fails to supply a satisfactory answer, either through inadequate technology, the simple inability to provide a cure at that time, or the fact that not enough is presently known about the ailment, other modalities which promise miraculous results are often sought.
There are several religious sects who base their entire philosophy on healing modalities. It is found that the "cure rate" experienced by the believers is no higher than that of persons who receive no treatment whatsoever, and often much less. For example, the Christian Scientists forbid their followers to utilize any regular medical care or medication. A recent U.S. survey of students at the college level showed a significantly lower life expectancy for those who attended Christian Science schools than for those who did not. Faced by such revelations, the believers turn their backs on further examination of their convictions.
Faith healers have often answered, when asked for proper evidence of their claims, "God doesn't need to be examined or challenged." The healers say, when the disease doesn't go away, that the subject has lost faith and thus has failed to "hold" his or her blessing. The guilt is borne by the subject. Saddest of all is the realization that these people subject their children to these restrictions as well, often with crippling or fatal results.
Reformer Martin Luther, among others in the sixteenth century, took credit for spontaneous, miraculous cures while Paracelsus and other savants were attempting——with highly varying degrees of success——to bring out of the superstition of magic, what we know today as the science of medicine. The Mormons and Episcopalians established a history of faith cures as part of their theologies.
In the 1600s, one practitioner known as "Greatraks the Stroker" (or Greatrakes, b. 1628) was astounding England with his performances. A remarkable English author, Charles MacKay, who in 1841 wrote his classic Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, observed in that book that
Mr. Valentine Greatraks . . . practised upon himself and others a deception . . . that God had given him the power of curing the king's evil. . . . In the course of time he extended his powers to the curing of epilepsy, ulcers, aches, and lameness. . . . Crowds which thronged around him were so great, that the neighboring towns were not able to accommodate them.
(MacKay's reference to the "king's evil" refers to scrofula.)
One can be grateful that MacKay recognized that Greatraks was deceiving both his patients and himself. As with fortune-tellers, healers often begin to believe in their own powers because their subjects tend to give them only positive feedback. Thus they can excuse and forget their many failures, and their legends grow.
Greatraks made a huge impression on the public and accumulated a fortune in the process. In this respect, he helped to establish the precedent for modern faith healers. And in several other important respects he mirrored the modern faith healers, as evidenced in an account written by a contemporary in 1665:
A rumour of the prophet's coming soon spread all over the town, and the hotel . . . was crowded by sick persons, who came full of confidence in their speedy cure. [Greatraks] made them wait a considerable time for him, but came at last, in the middle of their impatience, with a grave and simple countenance, that shewed no signs of his being a cheat. [The host] prepared to question him strictly, hoping to discourse with him on matters that he had heard of. . . . But he was not able to do so, much to his regret, for the crowd became so great, and cripples and others pressed around so impatiently to be first cured, that the servants were obliged to use threats, and even force, before they could establish order among them. . . . The prophet affirmed that all diseases were caused by evil spirits. Every infirmity was with him a case of diabolical possession. . . . He boasted of being much better acquainted with the intrigues of demons than he was with the affairs of men. . . . Catholics and Protestants visited him from every part, all believing that power from heaven was in his hands. . . . So great was the confidence in him, that the blind fancied they saw the light which they could not see——the deaf imagined that they heard——the lame that they walked straight, and the paralytic that they had recovered the use of their limbs.
To anyone who has actually witnessed a modern faith healer in action with crowds of worshipers around and about, that scenario will be familiar.
Sometimes psychics who do the usual ESP, reading, prophecy, and clairvoyance demonstrations eventually turn to claims of healing powers.

The original recipe called for the mixture to be spread among 4 separate dishes, however I made it in one big casserole dish - which worked just fine. I actually used small cans which did not quite equal the three large cans. I attribute that fact to the super spiciness. Next time, I will use the big cans.
This recipe is definitely a keeper!
Tyler Florence's Ultimate Baked Beans
(very slightly adapted)
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 canned chipotle chiles in adobo
3 big (28-ounce) cans cannelloni beans, drained and rinsed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 slices of pancetta
Leaves from 4 fresh rosemary sprigs
Extra-virgin olive oil
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Put the molasses, ketchup, mustard, and chiles in a blender and puree. Scrape that into a big bowl, add the beans and season with salt and black pepper, and gently toss so that the beans are coated with the molasses mixture. Divide the mixture evenly amongst individual crocks. Top with pancetta (trying to cover most of the surface), sprigs of rosemary and drizzle extra-virgin olive oil all over.
Bake in the oven until the bacon is browned and fat is rendered, about 40 minutes.

DETROIT (WKZO) -- The U.S. Capitol Police and Detroit police are investigating a burglary at the Greektown office of Congressman Hansen Clarke overnight on Wednesday. Thieves tampered with the front door lock and stole government-owned laptops, cameras, and office supplies once inside. Clarke says it's suspicious because neighboring offices were not hit.
Clarke, who was defeated by Congressman Gary Peters in a Democratic Party primary, told "The Hill" newspaper that no sensitive information appears to have been compromised.

Constance Bay, Ontario is a village of approximately 3,000, part of the municipality of Ottawa and is situated 20 minutes from Kanata. As of 2005, the village consisted of 30% cottage/seasonal housing; 70% year round. The community surrounds the Torbolton Forest (a protected and managed green-space) and Constance and Buckham's Bay along the Ottawa River.
The village has services of a (licensed) general store, 2 restaurants, a bar/lounge, and a chapel. The Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 616 is also located in the village.
During the summer months the bustling village offers all the fun in the sun activities - Recreational boating, Water skiing, Canoeing, Hiking, Horseback riding, and Cycling.
During the winter months there is Ice fishing, Snowmobiling, Cross-country skiing, Ice skating and Horseback riding.
A Community Centre is located in the centre of the village, the Centre's operation is overseen by the Constance & Buckham's Bay Community Association. The Community Centre includes a free skateboard park along with 2 baseball diamonds (both fully illuminated for night play), soccer fields (full and mini), play-structure, outdoor ice rink, and a concession stand operated by community volunteers.
The actual bay was named by French Fur Traders after Simon Constant who was a member of the Algonquin First Nation and who was in the area before white settlers arrived.
T.W. Edwin Sowter, a hobby archaeologist from Aylmer, Quebec, first identified the presence of archaeological sites at Constance Bay in the late 1800s. However, details of these sites were not available until Gordon Watson excavated a site in his Constance Bay cottage yard in the early 1970s. Watson's documented his findings in "A Woodland Indian Site at Constance Bay" available from the Ontario Archaeological Society. One item in the Watson collection is a large reconstructed ceramic vessel dating to about 2,500 years ago.
In 1946 St. Gabriel's first chapel opened for services. Father J. Lorne Reynolds appointed parish priest.
Hydro (electric service) was brought into the community in the summer of 1951.
In the spring/summer of 2005, Enbridge Gas Distribution brought Natural Gas to the community.
Torbolton Forest[edit]
The 147 Hectare Torbolton Forest is a managed greenspace and home to rare plant life, animals and birds. The forest has been designated by the Province of Ontario as a Provincially Significant Area of Natural and Scientific Interest (Life Science).

Sunset House lives up to the name!
This was exactly what we wanted! Three couples that enjoyed everything this home had to offer. The guys docked our boat at the dock and took it out fishing everyday. The girls enjoyed the pool and shopping was near. We enjoyed cooking and eating together each evening. Needless to say, we definitely would come back to the Sunset House!
Nice property for a great three generation family vacation. Beach was close and the pool was just right for late afternoon in the shade relaxation. The bedrooms are large and beds are comfortable. Very nice home and location for a sunny Florida vacation, and we saw the dolphins daily!
Great one bedroom
We stayed at the end of May into June. Very close to the beach, just walk across the street and through an empty lot and you are there. However the beach it self is very long so it takes a bit to get to the water. We enjoyed the pool every day as we ended up being the only guest in the four plex! Only complaint is the vacuum in the pool is always there, so sometimes the hose gets in your way. Owner followed up via email while we were there to see if we had any questions extra. Security deposit was returned quickly. Would recommend this place to others, great location, clean, and quiet area.

A mother and her son were rescued from a Glenview high-rise overnight after a small but intense blaze in a ninth-floor apartment.
Heavy flames could be seen shooting from the ninth-floor apartment at 3925 Triumvera Drive before the two people scrambled down a 100-foot ladder.
The fire was first reported at 12:27 a.m., Glenview Fire Chief Wayne Globerger said.
"I was like 'I have to be alive, I have to be safe. I have to do what the fire department said,'" said Sungwon Choi, 14. "Survival — that was the only thing on my mind."
A "couple" people suffered minor injuries but did not require hospitalization, Globerger said.
While flames were quickly extinguished, smoke filled the ninth floor and several other residents were evacuated, Globerger said.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Red Carpet Manicure Gel Polish - Simply Stunning
Based on 1 Review
TaniSaint Paul, MNHairMedium BrownFine or Thin HairLove This Gel Polish & Simply Stunning Color!I have always struggled with keeping polish on my nails for more than 2-3 days at a time - not to mention keeping it chip-free - regardless of the products I've used. The Red Carpet Manicure gel polish system is amazing (and surprisingly easy to use) and my nails look great for at least a week! After a week the polish starts to lift up around the cuticle, however the fact that it lasts an entire week with no-chips is huge for me. I also I like to change the color each week so I don't feel the need for polishes to last 2-3 weeks. I also adore the color Simply Stunning - it is a beautiful nude shade that works well with casual, professional, or dressy looks. I have relatively light skin and the color does not look washed out. It truly is Simply Stunning!

My company specializes in cedar roofing and siding here on Cape Cod, where cedar has long proven its durability even in severe coastal weather conditions. Correctly installed, a premium cedar roof can easily last 25 years — and typically much longer. In this article, I'll talk about the specific cedar products and installation procedures we use to ensure a long service life.
Although the terms "shingle" and "shake" are often used interchangeably, they are in fact two distinct products. Shingles are always sawn on both faces and are thinner, usually with a 7/16-inch butt. Shakes have 5/8- to 3/4-inch-thick butts and are split — rather than sawn — from the log, resulting in a rough, uneven face. (Taper-sawn shakes are unique in the category in that, like shingles, they are sawn on both sides. However, for all intents and purposes, I consider taper-sawns to be nothing more than thick shingles. Generally, the thicker the shingle, the longer it lasts.) Whether split or sawn, roofing application calls for a product with least 90 percent "edge grain," meaning grain oriented perpendicular to the surface. Edge grain produces better stability and minimizes the cupping and splitting that wood undergoes in the wetting and drying cycle.
Grading. Manufacturing members of the CSSB, the Cedar Shake & Shingle Bureau (604/820-7700, www.cedarbureau.org), rely on a standardized "Certi-label" program, adopted by the major code agencies, to identify various shake and shingle grades. Grading rules are listed on the CSSB Web site. This is important information because building codes stipulate certain minimum standards for wood roofs. Using the wrong shingle could spell big trouble. The IRC (905.7.4) defers to CSSB grading rules for approved shingles, which include grades 1, 2, and 3.
On our roofs, we don't use anything but premium grade, which is 100 percent clear heartwood and 100 percent edge grain. It's the best guarantee that the roof will perform without any problems for the longest period of time. The shingles we consider suitable for roofing include 18-inch "perfections" and 24-inch "royals." Sixteen-inch "fivex" (5-inch exposure) shingles are also available and are allowed by code, but we never use them on the roof.
Finally, while shake roofs are common in the West, I have yet to install one here in New England. (There are a few differences between shingle and shake installation, which I'll touch upon later.)
Warranties. Although it's ending this year, the CSSB has historically offered a warranty program on behalf of its manufacturing members, made available through CSSB-approved installers (of which I'm one). In the future, warranties will still be available directly from the individual manufacturing members.
A wood roof is an expensive roof. Two or three years ago, in a red-hot market, I was paying $300 per square for premium red cedar shingles. In today's flat economy, prices are well under $200 per square, helping to make red cedar a more attractive alternative to 50-year asphalt shingles. That's not to say the two are competitive, exactly; I generally quote a replacement roof in asphalt at around $375 per square and cedar starting at $600 per square. New-construction costs are slightly lower.
Wind resistance. Wood shingles are rated for wind pressures equal to 173 mph, and shakes to 245 mph — a certain advantage over asphalt shingles in hurricane zones. Insuring a wood-roofed home can still cost more, though, because it's perceived as having a higher value. Presumably, that perception can also mean a higher asking price when it's time to sell.
The drier, the better. Steeper roof pitches shed water more rapidly, reducing absorption and making them the best candidates for wood roofing. Cedar shingles are not recommended for roof pitches below 3/12, nor shakes for pitches less than 4/12. On 3- and 4-inch slopes, I reduce the course exposure to about 4 inches. On 3-inch slopes, we always fully cover the deck with self-adhering underlayment. Steeper than that, 30-pound felt is sufficient.
On this waterfront roof, the builder covered the entire roof with self-adhering membrane, eliminating the use of standard #30 felt underlayment. With a self-adhering membrane and reduced course exposure, cedar shingles may be installed on roof slopes as shallow as 3/12.
In the Northeast, red cedar is far more common than Alaskan yellow cedar, a relative newcomer to our market. Nonetheless, I prefer yellow cedar; it's slightly denser than red cedar and has better resistance to cracking and splitting. Also, it's dimensionally stable and has natural oils that make it highly decay-resistant. While red cedar weathers to a dark, sometimes uneven shade of gray, yellow cedar turns a softer silver-gray that closely matches the color of the white cedar shingles commonly used on sidewalls. When it was first introduced, yellow cedar was considerably less expensive than red cedar. However, while prices vary from one region to another, yellow cedar in this neck of the woods now costs about 20 percent more than red cedar.
Pressure-impregnated red-cedar and yellow-cedar shingles are also available, — either preservative-treated (Certi-last) or fire-retardant-treated (Certi-guard), but not both at once. Preservative treatment can really extend service life and offers significantly better material warranties, up to 50 years in some cases. These shingles are recommended for use in high-humidity regions; we recommend their use in particularly shady locations where the shingles are likely to remain wet for extended periods of time. Preservative treatment costs about 7 percent more than nontreated shakes or shingles — a good bargain when weighed against the extended service life.
Fire-retardant treatment comes in Class C and Class B ratings; a Class A rating can be achieved by installing a Class B shake or shingle over a 72-pound mineral-surface fiberglass cap sheet. Design specifics are best obtained from the specific treatment company (Chemco, 360/366-3500, chemco.us; or F.S.R. Treatment, 800/663-8301, firesmartroofing.com).
The CSSB cautions that white cedar shingles are intended for siding use only. White cedar is softer than either red or yellow cedar. The shingles are also predominantly flat-sawn, which practically guarantees that they'll curl, cup, and split under rooftop exposure.
Width and grain rules. A good roof-grade shingle will split straight along the grain when cut with a utility knife. Generally, if the grain looks too wavy — as if the shingle had been cut close to a knot — I toss it. Wavy grain means the shingle is likely to cup or warp and need replacement. Lower grades permit a certain percentage of flat-sawn grain and knots above the exposure line, both dubious qualities on a roof.
The straight grain of a premium-grade cedar shingle slices cleanly with a utility blade. Excessively wavy grain can contribute to cupping or warping.
Narrow shingles, or "paint sticks," don't make the cut, either. With shingles less than 4 inches wide, there's simply not enough surface area to cover adjacent keyways and nails. The best range is between 5 and 9 inches wide. Shingles wider than that will move too much during wetting and drying cycles and may end up splitting around the nails.
We cull the 10-inch-wide shingles and resaw them to 5 inches. The very widest ones — those around 12 inches — we put aside to use for one-piece valley shingles, which saves time and materials.
The author culls shingles more than 10 inches wide from the bundle and uses them to make one-piece valley cuts.
After establishing an accurate pattern, we cut all the valley shingles at once, using an adjustable angle fence on the table saw. On a hip roof, the offcuts can always be used to complete hip courses.
Because cedar shingles readily absorb moisture, it's important to provide a means for air to circulate and speed their drying. Otherwise, they'll cup and support fungal growth and decay.
Many wood roofs today are installed directly over felt underlayment and plywood sheathing, but that's not the best way to go. Although preservative-treated shingles may hold up well in direct contact, there's still the possibility that moisture will be trapped against the sheathing. Traditionally, wood shingles were installed over spaced boards, or "skip sheathing," a practice that allowed air to circulate under the shingles. The problem with skip sheathing is that it's more labor-intensive to install than plywood sheathing and doesn't provide the same racking resistance.
A hybrid approach, where spaced boards are placed over solid sheathing, is sometimes used, but the continuous ventilation product Cedar Breather (800/346-7655, benjaminobdyke.com) provides a good, economical alternative without all the fuss. I always recommend it. A 200-square-foot roll of the random-matrix mesh costs about $110 and is easy to staple down with a hammer-tacker. Installed, it adds $80 per square to the roof price. The mesh should run all the way from the edge of the eaves to the top of the ridge. At rakes, we hold it back about an inch so that the shingles can be nailed down hard along the edge to close the roughly 1/8-inch gap. The roll-off is imperceptible. If we're replacing the roof trim, it's a simple matter to raise the rake edge enough to cover.
Ventilating Cedar Breather mat installs quickly and provides critical air circulation under the shingles.
Using Cedar Breather does introduce a thin, springy void under the shingles, bringing with it some concern for cracking the shingles underfoot. We take extra care when walking on them and add staging brackets and planks as needed to minimize direct foot traffic. With thicker, taper-sawn shakes, this is not as much of a concern.
Cracked shingles have to be replaced. The good news is that they're fairly easy to remove piecemeal, especially if the roof isn't at the end of its service life. But that's typically when I find myself making temporary repairs and recommending a new roof. The majority of the wood roofs we replace are about 25 years old, while roofs 40 and 50 years old aren't unusual.
Shingles require a three-ply application. Thus, a 51/2-inch exposure calls for 18-inch perfections to ensure triple coverage. A 7 1/2-inch exposure will require 24-inch royals to create a three-ply surface. Unlike shingles, thicker shakes may be installed in two-ply coverage. For example, a maximum exposure of 7 1/2 inches is acceptable for an 18-inch shake, and a maximum of 10 inches for a 24-inch shake. Exposure tables for shingles and shakes on steep and shallow roof slopes are found in IRC 905.7.5 and 905.8.6.
Wood shingles must be installed in three-ply application. Shakes are typically installed in two plys, but require an interlay course of #30 felt to prevent wind-driven moisture from penetrating.
Note that when installing split shakes, there's an important added step. The irregular, corrugated surfaces of shakes prevent them from lying tightly against each other, which helps with ventilation but makes them susceptible to wind-driven snow and rain entering under the courses. To prevent this, shake courses are interlaid with 18-inch-wide strips of #30 roofing felt. The interlay laps the tips of the shakes no lower than twice the distance of the exposure up from the butt and runs up onto the sheathing, effectively creating a third ply and a baffle against snow and water entry. However, felt interlay should never be used under shingles or taper-sawn shakes, which have no inherent ventilation space between the layers. The felt is absorbent and can hold water, potentially leading to buckled shingles and early roof failure.
Nails. Although hot-dipped galvanized nails are acceptable, we use only stainless steel ring-shank nails. Considering the overall cost of the installed materials, it's cheap insurance against failure. In any case, we never use electroplated fasteners of any kind. The CSSB discourages their use, and I have to agree. I've seen cedar shingles literally slide off a 7-year-old roof after these nails rusted away. Whether this was due to corrosive salt-laden air or a chemical reaction with the natural oils in the cedar wasn't clear — but regardless, these nails aren't worth taking a chance on.
For shingles, we use 13/4-inch nails, while thicker shakes call for 2 1/4-inch nails. Stainless steel staples are allowed, but we don't use them because I just don't like the idea of doubling the number of penetrations. Also, staples are more difficult to remove should we need to make spot-repairs or retrofit a skylight. Whichever you use — nails or staples — don't overdrive them. Doing so risks voiding the manufacturer's material warranty. We adjust the gun pressure so that the heads are driven just flush with the surface.
The first course is always a double layer. We nail the first layer a little low, about 5 inches up from the butt, and the second layer an inch above the exposure line. Metal drip edge can be eliminated, but the felt underlayment or self-adhering membrane should always be carried onto the top of the fascia. The shingles should overhang both eaves and rakes by 1 1/2 inches.
To start, we nail shingles at wide intervals along the eaves, overhanging by about 4 inches to catch a chalk line and establish a straight, 1 1/2-inch overhang. We then tack-nail lengths of strapping to the line to guide the first course. The projecting shingles are later sawn flush.
To start the first course, the crew nails a guide strip to a chalk line snapped at the 1 1/2-inch overhang.
Fence boards ripped to the exposure width guide the successive courses.
To guide subsequent courses, we rip fence boards to the exposure width — typically 5 1/2 inches — and tack-nail them to the face of the previous course with 1 1/4-inch box nails. These nails don't fully penetrate the shingles, and the holes self-heal. Every 10 courses or so, we'll measure back from the ridge at both ends and center to make sure the courses are remaining parallel. If need be, we'll snap adjusting lines. Don't use red chalk for this or you could be looking at an accidental line for a long time to come.
Side laps over "keyways" — the joints between shingles — must be at least 1 1/2 inches and thoroughly cover the nails. Nails should be driven about 1 1/2 inches above the exposure line and no more than 3/4 inch in from either edge of the shake or shingle. We're extremely careful about placing and covering the nails, since this is where shingles are most likely to split. If a split lines up with a keyway, a leak is pretty likely to develop.
For the same reason, it's also important to make sure that no two joints align vertically within three successive courses. According to CSSB standards, a maximum 10 percent alignment is permissible — but to the experienced eye these stacked keyways tend to stand out like a sore thumb. We don't allow them at all.
To accommodate expansion, we maintain a 1/4-inch spacing between shingles. (Between shakes, keyways should be about 3/8 inch wide.) However, if the shingles are noticeably wet coming out of the bundle, we tighten the spacing on the assumption that the shingles are as swollen as they're likely to get. Those keyways will only widen, not buckle.
Valleys. A wood valley can be installed closed, with the two sides cut to fit against each other, but I feel that this makes it more difficult to keep nails far enough away from the center line and prevents the butts from drying promptly. On open valleys, we snap guide lines between 3 and 4 inches off-center, depending on the length of the valley and the expected volume of water. We always line valleys with a 36-inch-wide self-adhering membrane first. I buy preformed W-valley 12-ounce copper flashing in 10-foot lengths from a local sheet-metal fabricator. We overlap all joints by 6 inches and solder them tight.
A time-tested waterproof valley is made from preformed W-valley copper flashing.
Hip and ridge caps. While a ridge board is the fastest method for finishing the roof, a woven cap using shingles or shakes really puts the icing on the cake. We save considerable time by buying ready-made hip and ridge units through our roofing supplier. These are made to order to suit specific ridge and hip pitches. Since the joint orientation should alternate from one cap to the next, the caps come in left- and right-hand units. This helps prevent the possibility of a running seam developing over time.
The author buys these made-to-order hip and ridge caps through his roofing supplier, greatly speeding installation. A strip of self-adhering membrane adds another layer of protection under the cap.
Before installing the caps, we cover the hips and ridges with a 6-inch-wide piece of self-adhering membrane.
Maintenance. Ensuring that the roof will stay as dry as possible is critical to long service life. Wood fungus leads to rot and forms most aggressively in areas where the roof stays wet for long stretches of time. Valleys, gutters, and downspouts should always be kept clear of debris. Overhanging branches should be trimmed back and shade trees minimized. A simple way to help prevent moss from gaining a toehold is to install a narrow strip of lead or copper under the ridge board or cap, leaving about an inch of metal exposed. Then, when it rains, trace amounts of the metal will leach and wash over the roof, killing mold spores before they become established.
