Flushing walking food tour + restaurant recommendations please (researched)!!
Let me start out by thanking the likes of Lau, ScoopG, Kathryn and the others whose inputs I've used in putting this together!
The idea is for 3-4 of us who live in Manhattan to spend a day feasting on Flushing's best! We were thinking of just walking and eating small portions at different places. We'll eat anything so no problems there, it just has to be delicious and extra points if everything has different flavors. None of us speak any Chinese BTW (but I'm thinking about Double Dragon which is a discussion for another day ;). I also came across some restaurants during my research that I'd like to visit (probably some other time).
I'd be thankful for any advice on my choice of places and dishes, things I may have missed, etc.
It seems like a very large majority of this comprises of dumplings and noodles. Is there something that I could add to this for some variety?
1. White Bear:
- Wontons in hot oil and frozen dumplings for home
2. Flushing Mall:
- Temple Snacks: Gua Bao
- Yong He: Xian Dou Jian, Fan Tuan, Sao You Tiao, Dan Bing
- Ah Zhong: Dan Bing
- Shaved ice at the juice and shaved ice stall
3. Golden Mall:
- Lanzhou hand pulled noodles (Any dish recommendations?)
- Chengdu Heaven: Dan Dan noodels
- Xian: Been to the East Village branch loads of times so low priority
- Wang-Zheng's halal snacks
4. Nan Xiang
- Xiao Long Bao
5. Corner 28
- Roast duck buns (People seem to have a mixed response to these so relatively low priority)
6. Fu Run
- Muslim lamb chop
7. Nan Shian Dumpling House
- Soup Dumpling
8. Chiu's
- Fried dumpling
9. Soy Bean Chan (The Flower Shop)
- Tian Dou Tiag
10. Xin Jiang BBQ Master
- BBQ Kebabs
11. New World Food Mall
- Beautiful Memory desserts (Mango Pancake)
- Lao Ma Mala Tang: Mala Xiang Guo (Medium Spicy)
1. Tong Sam Gyup Sal: This looks awesome. Can't wait to try their pork belly. Also, has anyone tried their beef intestines? Is there an easy way to get to this place from Flushing?
2. M&T: I haven't looked into specific dishes yet except the 'Sea Intestines'
3. Imperial Palace: Crab rice, crisply whole chicken, Peking pork shops, braised fish, pea shoots in crab sauce
4. Canton gourmet: Garlic crab and garlic chicken
5. Main Street Imperial Taiwanese ( Bei Gang): Cong Ting Tou, one of the Putzs, three cup 'something', oyster omelet
Would it be possible for us to club maybe one restaurant with the food tour or would that be torturing our stomachs?
Thanks a lot guys!! Cheers!!
Thanks indiefoodie! Very ambitious tour plans. Looks like this tour could feed a dozen folks!
Flushing Mall seems to get quieter every day. Temple Snacks is still going strong but I think Yong He and An Zhong are closed. There was huge tarp covering the spot where Yong He used to be yesterday. The Hand-Pulled Noodle spot as well as a few vendors on that end of the mall are still open.
I'd consider adding Henan Fengwei if you have not been already. M&T has just had an ownership change with the new owner also from Qingdao. They are currently using the old menu and whether that will change in the future I don't know.
re: scoopG
Thanks scoopG. I've been to He Nan Flavor for the dumplings and the big chicken plate a few times. Should I still consider Henan Fengwei?
Also, out the list of places that I have under the FOOD TOUR section, I think Fu Run is a sit down kind of a place that'll take a little time. What about the others? Do they prepare stuff after you order or is most of the stuff pre-made?
re: indiefoodie
Yes indiefoodie, I'd replace one of the Cantonese places with Henan Fengwei. You can get the Muslim Lamb Chop to go - it would be placed in a large aluminum tray. Bring a knife or ask them to make sure it is cut up. There's most always a wait at Nan Xiang so you could order the XLB then go Fu Run and order the Muslim Lamb Chop then go back to Nan Xiang. Everything is made to order. Of course the dumplings are made ahead of time - but they are usually always making them.

re: scoopG
Thanks. So, I guess Yong He and An Zhong are off the list. I tried to read a little about M&T and Henan Fengwei.
Has anyone been to M&T after the change in ownership? I wonder how would that affect things there. Anyways, for dishes there, I guess knowing the Chinese names would be helpful. I have some of them but can someone please help me with the others?
1. Jiu Cai Chao Hai Cheng (椒鹽嶗山蔘)
2. Gelatinuos & slippery pork in aspic
3. Cucumber with pieces of fatty meat from a pigs face
4. Fried pumpkin cake (Is this a dessert?)
5. Pork belly stewed in kelp
6. Squid heads with cumin & hot peppers
7. Jie Mo Mu Er (芥茉木耳) Mustard Tree Ears
8. Clenched fist fern stir friend with pork
9. Fei Hong Fish (What is this?)
10. Fried taro cakes (Is this a dessert?)
11. Fried pork belly (炸五花肉 Zha Wu Hua Rou)
Lastly, is a vegetable dish here that I could use to cut the meat overload?
For Henan Fengwei, I guess Chinese is not required. Since I've had the Da Pan Ji in Manhattan plenty of times, I thought of giving the foll. a try:
1. Shi Jing Sha Guo - 10 item casserole
2. Yong Rou Hui Mian - Lamb noodle soup
Is there something else that you feel I should add/remove from my list? Thanks!

re: indiefoodie
I stopped in on Wednesday and picked up the M&Tmenu, which was the same as the old one. Their menu is fully in English plus they have a dozen or more photos on the wall. Fei Hong Fish (or Chicken) is an interesting dish. Check to see what fresh vegetables they have when you go.
Here's more on Fei Hong:
re: indiefoodie
On my first visit to M&T, we found ourselves with a lot of fried stuff and asked for a vegetable dish. They brought us baby bok choy with black mushrooms that had a garlic sauce, if I remember correctly. That was my favorite dish of the night, so refreshing.
re: indiefoodie
RE Henan FengWei:
The 10-item casserole is a good thinking. :-) I'd also recommend their crispy meatballs for delicate textures and light, aromatic broth.
If you enjoy good noodles, their rendition is absolutely stellar. I'd order an extra scoop on the side, to soak the gravy.
Also, their boiled dumplings are one of the finest in Flushing: whatever fillings (pork and leeks, pork and cabbage, mutton) they have on the daily specials is probably worth it.
Re M&T:
Not sure what you meant in #1: looks like a small typo that mixed up two good dishes: one is squid with Jiu Cai 韭菜比管魚 (you might want to ask for extra Sichuan pepper/Hua Jiao for an extra kick), the other one is batter-fried LaoShan ginseng 椒鹽嶗山蔘.
#2, 皮凍, is surely delicious but quite generic, IMHO.
#10 is not a dessert and is not made of taro. For dessert, go 3 blocks down the street to Carnation Bakery (at the corner of the parking lot)
Two of my other favorites are (1) jelly fish and kidney, and (2) a Qindgao quick stir-fry 青島小炒 of root vegetables, peppers and bacon. You might also consider ordering more fresh seafood /fish dishes.
If you like the taste of sauteed or stir-fried green vegetables with garlic, you should always ask the waiter what kind of Chinese vegetables they recommend.
re: diprey11
Though the fried taro cakes may not be a dessert, we ordered the sweet potato cakes last time we were at M&T at the end of the meal and the waitress suggested we take half taro cakes. We ended up liking the taro cakes better, and they worked fine as a dessert for us.
re: Cheeryvisage
Ah! It is indeed :) I guess, its Nan Xiang Dumpling House for the Xiao Long Bao. Thanks for pointing that out.
Off the top of my head:
Try the Macao Pork Chop sandwich at Lan Kwai Fong.
It's a little out of the way but the lotus steamed pork at Hunan House is stellar, actually, there are multiple dishes at Hunan House that are stellar.
The three pepper chicken (boneless) at Spicy Tasty (ask for extra ma la)
The tea leaf sea bass at Mulan
The oxtail dish at Yi Lan Halal

re: Pookipichu
Lan Kwai Fong? As in Hongkong Central's Lan Kwai Fong? Please tell us more Pookipichu!
re: scoopG
Lol, it's not even Cantonese food, unfortunately. However, it's thai/viet/chinese fusion. It started very strong but the food has declined somewhat because I've noticed it's almost always empty :( which is a shame because it actually was great when they started.
They've also changed preparations, presentations a couple of times so I recommend with reservations.
I don't have pics of everything I've had there, I'm bad I know, the grilled beef papaya salad has slices of beef in a similar style to chinese beef and green pepper stir fry. When they first made it, it didn't have mayo based sauce directly on it, you can request it on the side. I'd say the flavors are quite good although the beef doesn't seem grilled to me.
The soft shell crab app has excellent flavor but I've had it three times, the first time it was crisp, not so much subsequent times. Comes with a tasty lime based dipping sauce.
The stuffed roasted chicken is like a drunken chicken pate with pork. It's served on very garlicky and crunchy points of toast.
The avocado and shrimp spring rolls are neither here nor there.
The pho is quite good, possibly the best in Flushing, which is not saying much but it's something. The broth is rich and meaty with anise notes. The basil and mung bean sprouts were beautiful when I had them. It comes with two sauces, chilli and a rich paste.
I've tried the grilled chicken sandwich and the chicken seems more like a fried cutlet than grilled chicken. First time it was great, second time, gristly.
The macao pork chop is the same as above, except a pork cutlet. Comes with pickled veggies on a toasty baguette. Best baguette in Flushing quite possibly. Their macao pork chop has been their most consistently delicious dish.
Lan Kwai Fong
135-23 40th Rd, Queens, NY 11354
Just a quick fyi re: the crab rice at Imperial Palace, if you haven't had it before, it's a very tasty dish, the rice is delicious, but the crab meat is a lot of work to get to and very messy. Just something to be mindful of because I have friends that won't even eat chicken if it's on the bone.
Imperial Palace
136-13 37th Ave, Queens, NY 11354
you've compiled a nice list
flushing mall - yong he is closed, but i think ah zong is still open, but yong he was the place to get dan bing from not ah zong
corner 28 - i think thats wrong, i definitely think you should get a peking duck bun, ive taken many many of my friends there (chinese and not) and no one has ever not liked it
tong sam gyup sal - you can get here very easily on the LIRR, its literally directly across the street from the broadway stop. although i have a friend who said there is a better place from sam gyup sal (she's knows korean food really well in flushing, let me ask her which place she likes better)
gu xiang: i think gu xiang is worth trying, their three cup chicken is by far the best version ive had in flushing and i think their food is good as long as you order the right things (their street food stuff is just okay, but their stir frys are excellent). i like it the best out of the taiwanese restaurants although i'm going back to main street imperial very soon (done a bunch of research on what to order based on some chinese blogs my friends dad gave me)
M&T: not to be a detractor, but i don't think i'd go to M&T based on my visit there, its a bit of a far walk and for my taste, i thought it was good, but i love it and i dont think it was worth the trek. i'd replace it with henan feng wei if you're looking for more off the beaten path regional chinese food.
imperial palace: you should definitely go, i think this is one of the best restaurants in flushing
baidu shabu shabu - i like the hot pot here (get the duck broth)

re: Lau
Three Cup Chicken at Main Street Imperial is excellent, best in Flushing. Hands-down, the place is head and shoulders above Guxiang. There has been a recent change in ownership at M&T and that may have been a factor. Did you even try the fresh fish or seafood at M&T?
Main Street Imperial Taiwanese Gourmet
59-14 Main St, Queens, NY 11355
re: scoopG
have you had the three cup chicken at gu xiang? gu xiang's version is actually quite good on an absolute level, last time u went i thought u ended up ordering alot of street food, ill try it at main street and compare
M&T: read my review which i linked above and u can see what i ordered, i tried to order based on what people on the boards and some of the editorials i read about the place and i asked the owner lady for dish recs as well. i believe the owners were the same when i went there, but then changed maybe a month after (i ate there in early dec)
re: Lau
Have not had the Three Cup at Guxiang in a long time. I've been going to Main Street Imperial and Taiwanese Specialties in Elmhurst for my Taiwanese fix. Main Street for one always delivers a free dish or two to the table. I think the soft Taiwan cabbage is their standard free dish - lightly stir-fried and delicious.
Your M&T blog review is much more positive than what you now say. Also - I think you need to look at your ratings. You give them 7-8 out of 10 points on every item on your blog and now say it is ho-hum? Not worth the walk from Roosevelt and Main? Really - based on one visit? Three of the seven dishes you ordered were based on "what the lady" said, not based on this board or other reviews. And...wait for it....excuse me...but.. you ordered wrong! All FRIED dishes! No fresh fish or fresh seafood? - Which is what Qingdao is known for!
re: scoopG
re: Gu Xiang, i think you should give it a try again based on what i ordered, i think you'd enjoy it. how do you like taiwanese specialities in elmhurst btw?
re: M&T
no read what i said: "Overall, while I thought it was good, I don't think the flavors really matched my palate and it was more of a novelty for me than a "must try" destination, but that said I think it's great that Flushing is getting more and more unique regional Chinese cuisines that were unavailable only a few years ago and I hope more places like M&T keep popping up."
also above i said" it was good but i didnt love it". my point is not that it is "ho hum" which i never said. My point was that if i was going to go to flushing and spend one day out there it wouldn't be on my list of places to go (which is what the OP is going to do). however, if you were going to be out there fairly regularly then at that point maybe i would go try it out as something different.
i ordered based on what i read from what everyone said was good (the ginseng, pork chop and the shrimp, however the lady also recommended the shrimp) and when i asked the owner what her favorite fish dish was she pointed us to the eel. however it is possible that i ordered incorrectly as i have only been there once
however, you don't seem to have ordered all that much "fresh seafood" either, most of ithe seafood you ordered was fried or smoked and you didn't ordered any fresh fish
re: Lau
i ordered based on what i read from what everyone said was good and when i asked the owner what her favorite fish dish was she pointed us to the eel...
That's not what your write on your blog. You write you asked for a rec, she said eel. No mention of this being her "favorite dish." Three of the seven dishes you ordered were based "on what the lady said." This what is written on your blog, no?
The OP is looking for a diverse, multi-stop walking food tour of Flushing that the OP self-created. I still think there might be room for a Qingdao experience on the walk to Main Street Imperial!
re: scoopG
eel: i asked her for a rec and said recommended that and followed by adding that was her favorite
re: the dishes. of the main dishes, the ginseng, the pork chop and the shrimp were all recommended via chowhound, serious eats etc. however, the lady also recommended the shrimp as well after i asked her about what fish to order, so that was a double recommendation
again i didnt think it was bad, i actually thought it was good, i just think if you've got one day then i'd replace it with henan fengwei which i think is a more interesting option in my opinion for less main stream regional chinese option
re: Lau
eel: i asked her for a rec and said recommended that and followed by adding that was her favorite...
Fine. But you do not mention that "the lady" said it was her favorite dish on your blog! Only now, four weeks after you ate there.
Mind you, there must have been 20-30 M&T Chowhound recs and comments on many dishes over the past 18 months. The menu did evolve and change. Many of the reviews would have been based on large parties perhaps, ordering a variety of dishes.
My rec to the OP was to drop one of the two Cantonese places. Henan Fengwei was never on the OP's original list...
re: scoopG
am i obligated to say every detail of the meal?
henan fengwei - i know the it wasn't on the OP's list, but that why its a recommendation
re: scoopG
Oh, dear. I'm a Gu Shine (Gu Xiang) loyalist.
Their san bei gai (three cup chicken) is spectacular, as is their salt-and-pepper chicken and chicken roll. Very typical Taiwanese (Taipei -style) food.
I'll Add Main St. Imperial to my list.
re: shaogo
This is not to say that 3-cup chicken is not good at Gu Xiang, quite the opposite, but what other Taiwanese restaurants in NYC have you tried?
re: diprey11
i think gu xiang's is by far the best version i've tried in NY although i haven't tried main st imperial...i find gu xiang to be one of my favorite if you stick to like home style stir fry type of stuff and stay away from street food, which i find to be just ok
re: diprey11
well ive been to main street imperial, i just haven't tried the san bei ji there
btw the cang ying tou at main street is legit like taiwan level legit
re: indiefoodie
No, not at all!
re: indiefoodie
the only problem will be the staff referring to you as "gweilo"
re: indiefoodie
no except that a large amount of the specials at main street imperial and part of their menu is only in chinese, i have a feeling they don't speak english that well either, but im not 100% sure b/c we didnt speak english with them and there were no non-chinese when we went
re: Lau
Their printed menu is fully 80% in English. The wall is filled with plenty of Chinese specials. Smile, be friendly and you will be taken care of. indiefoodie - just print out chubby chinese girl's blog and you'll be Fiddlehead fine!
re: scoopG
Wow Chef Lings original creation and the Hakkanese little stir fry look amazing. can i just say #26 and #27 and point to something? how magical
re: scoopG
ah that hakka stir fry was one of the dishes listed in the chinese blogs ive been looking at that reviewed main stree imperial, looks good
re: AubWah
it is far from the train station; i believe there is a bus although ive never taken it. when i go to that side of flushing i rent a car and just drive there, too much of a headache to take multiple forms of transport
alternatively if you take the chinatown bus (the $2.50 one on division street), they drive down main street from the LIRR and if you ask they will drop you off there although not sure how you would get back.
you could also take one of those chinese black cars from downtown flushing to there, its pretty cheap
re: AubWah
Main Street Imperial is a 20 minute walk from the subway station. There is a very convenient bus (both local and limited stops) you can pick up across the street from the Queens Library there on Main street. Q20 or Q44....
re: scoopG
thanks for that link! i've been wanting to try main street imperial for a while and now, armed with her post, I feel totally ready. As someone who couldn't even begin to read and write chinese, I love this kind of thing. I'm fine being intrepid by myself or with my own family, but we usually try these places with a big group of extended family and it helps to be informed.
got any more blogs like this?

Who ever designed this has no idea how far apart head rest are on the back seat of a truck. I had to open the adjuster almost all the way to get it on and then the back is a little to long to fit right. It's made well and will do the job, it also is wide enough to cover the sides of the seat I'm pretty happy with it, I don't see the length being a big problem.

|Passover Wines from Hagafen Cellars
Fill Your 4 Cups with Hagafen
By Guest Columnist Eileen Goltz
For those for whom purchasing wine makes them feel like the simple son, the uncomplicated explanation for the difference in wines is:
▪ Red wines are made from black (red) grapes fermented with the skin in the mix. The red skin is what gives the red color to the red wine.
▪ White wines are made from either black (red) or white (green) grapes, fermented without the skin in the mix.
▪ Sparkling wines (which can be made with either white or red grapes) like Asti and Champagne contain carbon dioxide that add the bubbles that we all expect in a sparkling wine. The preferences as to which you will prefer takes time and tasting. Lots and lots of tastings.
A few weeks ago I was able to spend some time with Ernie Weir and his staff, touring and tasting at his Napa Valley, CA winery, Hagafen Cellars. Let me be perfectly clear − this talented vintner doesn't just make great kosher wines; he makes great, award−winning wines that are kosher. In fact, Hagafen wines are so exceptional, they received numerous awards and terrific reviews from wine critics in papers like The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times as well as being selected, on numerous occasions, to be served at the White House.
There are dozens of distinctive wines created at the Hagafen winery and they are sold under three different and distinct labels. They are Hagafen, Prix, and Don Ernesto. I can say, without hesitation or reservation, that every single wine I tasted was wonderful. In the end, after 3 hours of tasting and touring I had to pare my favorites down from 7 to 4 but the 4 wines I'm going to be serving at the Seder (yes I ordered them on the spot) are going to be served at many a meal AFTER Pesach too.
The wines I'm recommending all have a price point range from $24.00 to $36.00 a bottle and are available online at a variety of websites; but for the best selection and immediate shipping, I suggest you order directly from Hagafen at Hagafen.com. Their website is very easy to navigate and in the event you have questions or need further information you can call them at 707.252.0781 and an incredibly knowledgeable staff is ready to spend as much time as you need to get just the right wine for your Seder, Shabbos, special event, or drinking pleasure.
My 4 wines choices for this year's Seders are (with food parings suggestions for after Pesach):
2009 Hagafen Cabernet Franc (red)
2009 Hagafen Estate Bottled Napa Valley Syrah (red)
2012 Hagafen Dry White Riesling Napa Valley (white)
2011 Hagafen Napa Valley White Riesling (white)
Bonus pick and my favorite:
These Pesach friendly recipes can be modified and used any time of year.
And what wine will Ernie Weir be serving at his family Seder? "Either or both our Estate Bottled Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, perhaps one Hagafen and one Prix Reserve. But first, Hagafen Sauvignon Blanc with Gefilte Fish, of course." But, of course!

Alabama high school psychology teacher Bob Grisham has been suspended for 10 days without pay for a rant that included calling the first lady fat butt Michelle Obama." A student in Grishams class made an audio recording of the remarks, which also included derogatory comments about gays.
Grisham's suspension from Lauderdale County High School begins on Tuesday, and he has been barred from teaching his class for the rest of the school year and ordered to attend sensitivity training. Also the school's head football coach, he will be assigned "other academic duties'' for the rest of the year in place of teaching his class, according to Lauderdale County Superintendent Jennifer Gray.
During a debate-type discussion about current affairs in his class on Jan. 27, Grisham blamed the schools low-calorie lunch offerings on fat butt Michelle Obama. He also added, Look at her. She looks like she weighs 185 or 190. Shes overweight.
In that same class, he also voiced his disdain for homosexuals.
I dont believe in queers, he said. I dont like queers. I dont hate them as a person, but what they do is wrong and an abomination against God.

Hey guys.
Have not been around lately but thought I would invite anyone who might be going to the SEMA show in Vegas to stop by and say hey!
We will be there as always and I'll be working the tig booth again this year.
Only a couple more trips left this year and we are DONE!!! It's been a long year. I suspect next year won't be as bad since they will be cutting my out of town trips which is good so I can spend some good quality time here instead!
Hope to see some of you there!
Go VOTE....I already did.

Not sure if it was you, but I spoke to a young guy at one of the TiG stations about the Pulser and Sequencer on my Syncrowave 250. He was very helpful. I don't know how you guys keep the show schedule you have, since I see you at AWS/Fabtech, SEMA, PRI, NSRA, etc. and I know there's a whole bunch of others too. It's great for the customers, but it must cost you guys a bundle.
Hey guys.
Thanks for stopping at the booth. There were quite a few that I talked with that use this forum plus it's always nice to meet the people that spend time here.
Those Vegas shows always drag me out coming from the East Coast, my internal time clock is always messed up. I wouldn't mind it one bit if they said don't come back here
Just got back from the last NASCAR race this year YEA!
Now get the PRI show and one more budget meeting at the factory out of the way and I'm home free for the next 2 months.
If anyone plans on coming to PRI, look me up. I'll also have my Miller Sprint Cup COT car on display.

Buccaneer Baseball edges Radford, 5-2
Wednesday, March 10, 2004JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Mar. 10, 2004) - East Tennessee State had several timely hits, allowing them to pull away from Radford and defeat the Highlanders, 5-2, Wednesday afternoon from Cardinal Park in Johnson City, Tenn. The Bucs received solid pitching, led by freshman righty David Yates (Douglasville, Ga.), who earned the win in his first collegiate start. ETSU (9-8, 1-2 Southern Conference) got on the board early, scoring a run in the top of the first. Sophomore left fielder Matt Traylor (Knoxville, Tenn.) led off the inning with a double to right center then stole third with two outs. Sophomore first baseman Blake Church (Roswell, Ga.) then singled to drive in Traylor for his 19th RBI of the season. The Bucs added to their lead with a run in the bottom of the third. Traylor began the rally again, reaching on a one-out walk before advancing to third on a double by sophomore right fielder Shane Byrne (Johnson City, Tenn.). Traylor crossed the plate for his second run of the afternoon on a RBI groundout by senior shortstop Andy Howdeshell (Maryville, Tenn.). Radford (2-9) scored their first run to cut ETSU's lead in half in the top of the fifth. Center fielder Scott Gvozdas led off the inning with a double down the left field line. He moved to third on a fly out by catcher Dean Altavilla and then scored on a sac fly to right by shortstop Stuart Ritchie. Sophomore designated hitter Steven Calicutt (Spartanburg, S.C.) tacked another run to the Buccaneer lead with a solo homer with two outs in the bottom of the seventh. The blast over the left-center field wall was Calicutt's first of the season. The Highlanders responded with a run of their own in the top of the eighth. Left fielder Kellen Wohlford continued his strong day at the plate with a one-out double to right field. Then with two down, third baseman Shaun House blooped a single into center to drive in Wohlford and cut the ETSU lead to 3-2. East Tennessee State scored two big runs to ice the game in the bottom of the eighth. Senior center fielder Tim Turner (Marietta, Ga.) laced a leadoff triple down the left field line. He scored the first run of the inning on a sacrifice fly by Traylor. Byrne then walked, stole second, then scored on a single by Howdeshell. Junior closer Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.) came on to pitch a perfect ninth inning for his second save of the season. Yates (1-0) turned in an impressive first start, going five innings and allowing one run on five hits while striking out three. Michael Bauer (Kingsport, Tenn.), Trevor Smith (Newport, Tenn.), Caleb Glafenhein (Knoxville, Tenn.) and Moore each pitched an inning of effective relief to hold off the Highlanders. Josh Deaver (0-2) pitched a strong seven innings for Radford, but was charged with the loss. Deaver allowed three runs on just four hits while striking out three and walking two. No Buccaneers recorded more than one hit, but Church extended his hitting streak to 11 games and Byrne extended his to 10. Traylor scored two runs while Howdeshell drove in two in the win. Radford was led by Wohlford, who went 4-for-4 with a run scored. He had two doubles and two singles, but no other Highlander had more than one hit. "We pitched very well today," said ETSU head coach Tony Skole following the game. "David Yates kept the ball down in the strike zone and kept us in the ball game." The Bucs return to the diamond Friday night a 7 p.m. in Statesboro, Ga. for the opener of a three-game SoCon series at Georgia Southern. "Georgia Southern is one of the toughest places to play in the country," said Skole. "They will be ready for us and we look forward to going down there to face them."

Election 2012
Confused About The Iowa Caucuses? Here's A Guide
At 7 p.m. central time on Tuesday, Jan. 3, the first contest of the 2012 presidential nominating process takes place in Iowa.
As you've heard countless times, Iowans vote in caucuses, which are small political meetings held in 1,774 locations scattered around the state.
NPR political correspondent Don Gonyea has prepared this basic guide to next week's contest.
How It Works
A primary election feels very much like any other election day. Polls are open all day, and voters show up when they want. But a caucus is actually a meeting, with a schedule: It starts at a certain time; party business is conducted; and, at some point, voting.
Matt Strawn, the chairman of the Iowa Republican Party, starts with the basics.
"Well, the first thing is you need to be obviously an Iowa resident who is eligible to vote in the state of Iowa," he says.
You need to show up at the proper precinct, based on your address. You can participate if you'll be 18 years old on Election Day of November 2012. If you're a registered Republican, your name should already be on the list. If not, you can register as a member of the party on the spot, regardless of your political affiliation.
The caucus then gets under way. There will be an explanation of how the evening will proceed, then speeches.
"Each campaign has the opportunity to have one surrogate speak for anywhere from two to five minutes — it depends on what the precinct chair in that precinct allows," says Strawn. "And then after those speeches, there's no questions. ... You go straight to the vote."
Voters get a blank slip of paper, and they write the surname of the candidate of their choice on it. Then, they drop it in a ballot box.
"In my particular precinct, up in Ankeny, which is a suburb of Des Moines, we literally have a sequined red, white and blue shoebox with a hole slit in the top that we pass around the room," he says. "Sounds very cliche and Iowa, but it's the truth — it's what we do."
Then each precinct counts the votes in front of the caucus attendees. Results are then called in to the state party, where precinct totals are added up and released to the public.
It's important to note that no delegates attached to candidates are selected in the Iowa GOP caucuses, so the event is really a beauty contest — albeit one very important to the process of selecting a nominee.
"[It's] a very significant beauty contest, straw poll, you know, whatever terminology you want to use," Strawn says.
Now to the Democrats, where they have their own set of rules for caucuses. This year, though, the most obvious difference is that there's no contest for the nomination since President Obama is seeking re-election. State Democratic Party Chairwoman Sue Dvorsky says the highlight of the evening will be an appearance by the president, via video link, to every single caucus gathering.
"He's going to talk to Iowa Democrats about why this matters, about what he's done, about what he wants to do moving forward, and then ask them for their help — exactly the way he did four years ago," she says.
Dvorsky adds that Democrats will be focusing on congressional and other races, as well.
Right now, above freezing temperatures are forecast for much of Iowa on Tuesday. That could help turnout — which both Republicans and Democrats say would give them a boost at the very beginning of an election year.

Radioactive Waste Disposal: An Environmental Perspective
This booklet describes the different categories of waste, discusses disposal practices for each type. and describes the way they are regulated.
On this page:
Any activity that produces or uses radioactive materials generates
radioactive waste. Mining, nuclear power generation, and various
processes in industry, defense, medicine, and scientific research
produce byproducts that include radioactive waste. Radioactive
waste can be in gas, liquid or solid form, and its level of radioactivity
can vary. The waste can remain radioactive for a few hours or
several months or even hundreds of thousands of years. Because
it can be so hazardous and can remain radioactive for so long,
finding suitable disposal facilities for radioactive waste is
difficult. Depending on the type of waste disposed, the disposal
facility may need to contain radiation for a very long time. Proper
disposal is essential to ensure protection of the health and safety
of the public and quality of the environment including air, soil,
and water supplies.
Radioactive waste disposal practices have changed substantially over the last twenty years. Evolving environmental protection considerations have provided the impetus to improve disposal technologies, and, in some cases, clean up facilities that are no longer in use. Designs for new disposal facilities and disposal methods must meet environmental protection and pollution prevention standards that are more strict than were foreseen at the beginning of the atomic age.
Disposal of radioactive waste is a complex issue, not only because of the nature of the waste, but also because of the complicated regulatory structure for dealing with radioactive waste. There are a variety of stakeholders affected, and there are a number of regulatory entities involved. Federal government agencies involved in radioactive waste management include: the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), the Department of Energy (DOE), and the Department of Transportation. In addition, the states and affected Indian Tribes play a prominent role in protecting the public against the hazards of radioactive waste.
Types Of Radioactive Waste
There are six general categories of radioactive waste:
- spent nuclear fuel from nuclear reactors
- high-level waste from the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel
- transuranic waste mainly from defense programs
- uranium mill tailings from the mining and milling of uranium ore
- low-level waste
- naturally occurring and accelerator-produced radioactive materials.
Radioactive waste is categorized according to its origin and not necessarily according to its level of radioactivity. For example, some low-level waste has the same level of radioactivity as some high-level waste.

You WILL IMPROVE and get Better Quicker by Moving Up. BUT, if you feel your not ready, it's your call. The one thing about this sport is people REALLY like the Sand Bagger term....
Your ready to move up.
Play Rec until your rating starts with a 9. It's a fallacy that players play better by playing up. Players get better by practicing.
If everyone would just play their rating you'd always be playing people pretty close to your skill level. First tourney I played up in I was rated rec and played int. Did pretty well and then looked online and found that everyone in the int division that tourney was rated below 900 anyway. So no one was playing any stiffer competition by playing up we just all paid an extra $5 in entry fees, Which was fine with me since I took third. :-D
Glad you figured it out Michael. Do what YOU are comfortable with! :)
If you win, or do well there are always going to be people who cry "BAGGER!" Move up when your rating makes you move up. The only reason I moved up from rec. was because I turned 50 last year and could play exclusively with guys my own age.(Advanced Grand Master)
By default, stay where your rating puts you.
Don't move up because you believe you'll improve faster, or due to peer pressure. The former is dubious and the latter is weak.
Do move up if you want to---if you like the challenge of being an underdog, or a larger division (if the case) or the particular people you'll be playing with. Heck, I used to play "up" on some long courses just to watch people throw 100' further than me (and try to beat them).
The ratings are there for a reason. They are calculated based off of multiple thousands and thousands of rounds.
I don't think that there is any one answer that will fit everyone. I know people who have moved up and it has helped them out. But it's not for everyone. Depends on your motivation.

A central premise of Mitt Romneys now infamous speech to a room full of wealthy donors is that nearly half of the country relies heavily on the government for assistance with housing, food, and health care. Despite widespread criticism, Romney has stood by his claim that 47 percent of the country are victims who are dependent upon the government.
But while Romney decries the direct government programs that benefit lower and middle class Americans, he is silent about the plethora of government tax breaks that richer Americans enjoy. As an independent study by the Tax Policy Center found, the other 53 percent receive their own form government assistance: they disproportionately benefit from the federal governments $1.08 trillion annual allocation for tax breaks:
The top 1 percent of income earners, those who take home in excess of $400,000 a year, account for almost a quarter all tax breaks, saving more than $250 billion a year in taxes. Meanwhile, the bottom 60 percent of wage earners a group of people that encompasses 99 percent of the victims that Mitt Romney describes are given just over 20 percent of annual tax breaks, or approximately $217 billion in breaks each year.
96 Percent Of People Have Received Some Government Assistance

WIll building smart self-aware robots endanger our existence in the future?
All technology is progressing, researchers are uilding smarter and more self-aware robots. If we keep developing Artificial Intelligence, one day the robots might become 100% self-aware and them realise that they are better than us in everyway - infinite knowledge, stamina, life, etc. Will this mean the end for us? To put this in an interesting way, what i wonder is the "Terminator" movie will come true??
Steve C
Jan 13 2012: Before my answer, my question: Will nanotechnology threaten us with "gray goo" or will it automatically generate its own dark-gray muscles or light-grey eyes?
- 0
I think that self-aware robots will not choose to endanger us. (And really, could they do much worse than we are?) My worry is semi-aware robots controlled by the Axis - or even by the Allies. (Yes, I too am a little disturbed that IBM's "Watson" avatar looks to me to be giving a Hitler salute.)Dec 19 2011: I personally cannot understand the interest in creating a self aware AI. why create another problem when we can use the resources and energy we have now to solve people problems. The only motivation I can think of with creating a self aware AI is companionship or extreme laziness (for the workloads), both of which can be solved with people or smart unaware robots.
I just dont understand the facination with AI.Dec 15 2011: i hope both will never happen ~_~ try to believe humanDec 15 2011: I actually think the biggest limit, to self aware robots, is that peole actually don't want them... If a professor, can design a professor bot, that teaches students just as efficiently, as he did... Well then... Who needs him?
I'm actually less worried about self aware robots killing us all, than I am that they're going to make us all really boring, and sad...
Dec 15 2011: yes ofcouse. they wont make us boring theyll make us 'useless'. if a professor creates a professor bot, the robot will for sure be smarter than the professor. Because it will have access to all written knowledge via the internet,etc.there is no way that one human can know everything but that is definitely possible with a robot. This might become true in every field.
And since we a useless they might just rule us. Thats as bad as them killing us dude.
Dec 15 2011: I think it is as bad... but I think it's what's going to save us... basically, what are professors with tenure famous for? Ego... We won't make ourselves useless. I actually think people will get close over and over again, but smart people will keep destroying the results... because we want to be the most important thing in the world damnit. I think literature may have saved us, and given our intellectuals a healthy fear of becoming obselete or dominated, and it might constantly make us destroy our greatest creation.
Dec 15 2011: Yes, in that case we have a chance. Lets hope that if a such research is completed they destroy the results. But still I think a better solution however improbable would be to make us equally smart in some way...maybe make a chip that could be implanted in the brain or something, so that we can be equally smart and work together with robots. I think so cause we possibly might need such robots for space explorations.. Just an idea... lolDec 30 2011: Self-aware is a human thing isn't it? Isn't it that dolphins, monkeys and us have this third choice? Our we really better off? That we can say yes, no, and maybe? That means that we would have to program a machine/ios to say "maybe".. That would be against any coding that most programmers would use, and would, in my opinion, be the only way robotics/I.A. would fight against us. You have to think.. life is a consuming, stealing, and borrowing thing. All of life either borrows or steals from the other, unless it becomes extinct.. Humans made it worse because of the choice of maybe. Before us, it was more balanced.. We are not a species made to last. We invent nuclear weapons, we fight all the time, we research science until we may possibly go too far, and then on top of that... we argue about whether we should risk inventing robots that "may" possibly take over our lives. If there is one thing I've noticed from humans, it's that we are so pressed on moving forward and learning, that sometimes we overlook the consequences.
I'm all for robotics, and their advancements, I'm just afraid of the day that someone stops programming them to be helpful..Dec 15 2011: maybe we will disappear before the robots become a master of earth. Because of war, the population and reasons like that. i think the "Terminator" will be ourselves if we treat the earth like what we do now.
Dec 15 2011: u have an interesting point. Yes that could be one case, afterall we are damaging the earth. Lets just wait and see which one happens first. :pDec 14 2011: Don't worry, it won't happen.
Dec 14 2011: It may happen, but not in the near future.
Before the electronic revolution, Who imagined that a box (computer) may be able to ruin people's lives by various ways. No one expected that computers may have viruses. (how can viruses infect these boxes?...huh).
I guess the same thing will happen with robots. We will be safe until some people program them to harm the world. (e.g a terrorist robot :P)
Dec 15 2011: its not about just bad people programming robots. As i mentioned robots are becoming self-aware... what it means is that in time when they become 100% aware they will know who they are and what they are capable of. Then since they have access to all the knowledge in the wotld via internet, etc. they can just reprogram themselves or even create other robots like themselves. Think about it!
Dec 15 2011: : Don't worry, it won't happen
unless someone opens the door for them :PDec 14 2011: Without an explanation as to why it definitely won't happen, your comment has no value.
Dec 15 2011: So, what is YOUR opinion?!
Dec 15 2011: My opinion is that the laws of physics do not forbid us to build a trully intelligent machine.
For all we know, we are ourselves intelligent machines.
Belief in a mystical barrier is belief in magic. I don't know if we'll achieve this. But I know it is not impossible in principle.
As for the dangers of intelligent robots, if we ever get there, I don't know. I think philosophy of the next century will have the toughest problems to solve. The line between organic life and non organic life, natural and artificial intelligence will be crossed and things will get quite chaotic. What is a subjective feeling? And is it ethical to build a machine with feelings?
That the earth is not the center of the world was shoking.
That humans are animals, and share 98% genes with chimps was shoking.
That all living organisms are biochemical niches for organic replicators was shoking.
But now... what the hell does anthropocentrism have left if our creative minds become commonplace technology ? Unless you believe in souls and spirits, whatever you think as being typically human will eventually be artificially designed, if we continue making progress. There will be no such thing as a "real person".Dec 15 2011: See my comment on Siddharth.Dec 15 2011: Quote: ".. a pre-existing belief system... which is an unreasonable reason.".
A belief system is to me when someone follows its reasoning derived from the limited sensory information to comprehend what lays beyond the sight of mind.
As I tried to explain in another conversation to you: anything can only be understood for what it is within and in relation to the whole of which it partakes. The desire to live, and with it most of our feelings and motivations, originate from that whole of which we are a momentary expression in the chain of generations. Unless one separates him/herself from it and get depressed, then he/she gets sick and eventually dies.
The genome is the blueprint not the animator.
Dec 15 2011: quote "A belief system is to me when someone follows its reasoning derived from the limited sensory information to comprehend what lays beyond the sight of mind."
Derived from the sensory information??? How does this happen? Give me an example!Dec 16 2011: Maybe it was Chinese to you but I can't think of any rational thought that isn't based on mind work. And mind work in turn is based on observations made by the human senses over time. The imagery that is processed on that base is designed by the importance of information that was needed to find resources to survive. For this our way of perceiving has a limited reality.
To know reality we have to resort to our feelings.
Dec 16 2011: Can you give me a simple example?Dec 17 2011: If you follow the development of our sensory apparatus you can see what's the relation to the world at large.
For sight you can start with Euglenia which is a plant like one cellular animal. A little spot on the membrane had become light sensitive so it can work its way in the direction of light. Necessary because it gets its energy from photo synthesis. This ability is upgraded thousands of times to develop our eyes and the cause ever was to distinguish something that favored survival.
Feeling however is something totally different and I don't mean sensory feeling but input that has a light pressure on our awareness apart from the senses. It is like un thought thoughts that we can decipher if we learn to listen to it. It mostly is blanked out by the strong energy input all senses bear on our awareness but I remember now: you've heard these things from your friends and you don't believe them.
Dec 17 2011: Frans, my mind is too weak to understand a word of what you write. And I can't get you to explain all this in simple answers, so I guess I'll leave it at that, with regret of not having learnt anything.
Quote "It is like un thought thoughts that we can decipher if we learn to listen to it. It mostly is blanked out by the strong energy input all senses bear on our awareness"
Five dollars to whom understands this.Dec 26 2011: Wow....this conversation is getting really complicated...:PDec 15 2011: But how can we be sure... I mean there is even a robot made recently that learns from its mistake and then becomes perfect in that activity for e.g. walking, or playing table tennis. Isnt this the start?
Dec 15 2011: To be sure we first have to understand what self-awareness really is.
If that is known you know at the same time that to be self-aware you first have to be aware. To be aware is as something that from one point in spacetime pictures the surrounding field in a way that it can derive meaning from it that in turn serves its desire for continuing its awareness. Motivation and will comes first, the desire for life, for the joy and beauty it gives.
That is the mechanical part that we see on the outside, the real base for all this is consciousness which is the base from which we can picture anything and become aware of it. Consciousness is non material, non local. It is the center and origin of everything in existence and therefore capable of seeing via all kind of senses life has developed. The thing we see is as much in that consciousness as the one that sees. That's the difference between life and death and robots are not alive and not dead, they are thing we play with. You could see robots as an image like an mp3 is a digital image of a song the robot is an image of human activities. Images are copies of the real thing. Maybe they can do things faster but they serve our motivation. Just like a telescope is an extension to our eyes the robot can become an extension to our activities.
Scientist are on the brink to synthesize a cell as a simple copy of a living cell. Will it start to live? I don't think so. And any robot with a thousand fold of all mental and physical powers of any human being has no clue what it wants unless we program it to do what we like.
From the illusion we live in we can't make something real.
Dec 15 2011: You haven't given me an answer on another discussion about this.
I say that our so-called "desire" to live, our programm telling us what to look for, what to like, what to do, etc... come from our GENES.
You said, and state the same thing here, that there is more to living organisms than chemical reactions. You think there is something more to life than reproduction of genes. This is what you haven't explained.
Will to live is an emergeant phenomenum, resulting of genes carelessly being either copied or not. There is no desire at the core of chemistry. Or if you say there is, if for instance you say that an oxygen atom desires two hydrogen atoms, then why can't robots, made of atoms, share this DESIRE?
An ipod would seem more than mechanical to anyone living in the middle ages. It would bare no ressemblance to the technology of the time, so it would be thought to be obeying different laws of physics... it would be magic.
I feel like you're puzzled by the complexity of biological machines, and since they bare no ressemblance to your car or TV set, you're jumping to the conclusion that magic is involved, or "soul", or whatever.
I don't think you're being open-minded about the possibility that there is nothing quite special about life. I don't see any reason for doing so, except for accomodating a pre-existing belief system... which is an unreasonable reason.Dec 15 2011: If you want to integrate Philosophy and Science then here is my answer in the same terms:
I think that nobody can ever know SELF-AWARENESS. What is actually there is not knowable and what we know is just sensory information processed by the MIND. We don't live in an illusion, we are illusions controlled by what has been put in the memory cells of the brain from millennia. The human brain is not personal it has evolved through time. Whenever self-organization happens consciousness moves in!!
Robots are becoming more and more organized! The programs that run it may someday become smart enough to evolve the software on its own. It then becomes independent of human intellect. Finally I believe that you can never saw whether you are alive or dead, you could be dead and conscious or alive and unconscious for e.g. how can YOU guarantee that you're alive when you're in deep sleep? However once you are awake the space and time around you appear simultaneously. So do you give birth to space and time?
This feeling can happen in a robot if the capacities of the human brain are reverse engineered and given to it. Robots thus may not need a soul to be alive just an exact replica of a human brain. Man's brain is a biological computer. Robot's intelligence is mechanical and evolving at a rapid pace. What if it finds our intelligence primitive? To take-over the world, all it will need is a BRAIN. To be called alive you need to procreate and survive which the computer will do in the future i.e. create its own kind and multiply?Dec 15 2011: Siddharth,
A lot of what you say make sense to me but two comments.
When will robots start to feel and have our brains have to do anything with living itself?
As you maybe know most animals haven't hardly brains at all and are functional living beings as well as we are.
Dec 16 2011: Frans...dont underestimate animals. They might not have the ability to solve differential equations or build rockets but they DO have the brains for one of the most important thing - SURVIVAL. Robots might one they decide that we are useless but might still pose a threat as we can fight back.
Also, thats true...brains were originally present for movement, etc., but over the past millenia it has evoled and taken over completely. Thus, now the brain tells us what to do and who we are, even though we are much more.

New partnerships : Joyce Meyer
In 2013 CNA began broadcasting Joyce Meyer's teaching in French and Arabic. Joyce's approach is somewhat different from most of CNA's other content. In addition to bringing a different breadth of subject matter, with much down to earth Christian life application, JMM productions are technically very visually pleasing and amongst the best dubbed videos we have seen. CNA is currently dubbing Joyce Meyer into the Kabyle language and will be the first to broadcast her programs in this language.

Tunisian Youth Series Produced
CNA partners with many ministries and at the beginning of Summer partnered with UFM (Unreached Field Missions) to shoot a youth series in Tunisian Arabic of 13 episodes called Shabbah Xpress. There is a strong possibility that this series will be ongoing. It is expected to air in December 2013.
This is a new venture, and we hope there will be more productions like this in the future.

The Elk County Catholic Lady Crusaders picked up their fifth victory of the season on Wednesday evening when they defeated the Brockway Area High Lady Rovers in an AML encounter by the score of 42 to 26.
"We did a great job on the boards tonight," said ECCHS Head Coach Ken Pistner following the game. "Another factor in tonight's win was the solid minutes of play that we received from our bench players."
"Tonight we had a much better offensive flow than we have displayed in the past few games," added the coach.
Karly Carnovale led the Lady Crusaders in scoring with a game-high 16 points. She was followed by Abbi Petrosky with nine, Ellie Petrosky with eight, Emily Gregory with four, Taylor DaCanal and Morgan Onink with two each and Maggie Sorg with one point.
The Brockway squad was led by Zoe Hawkins with seven points, while Leann Crawford and Jalina Sabatose each added six points, followed by Ann Moyer with three, and Sara Guilyard and Juliana Vokes with two each.
The Lady Crusaders dominated the first quarter of play as they put 15 points on their side of the scoreboard while holding the Brockway girls scoreless.
Brockway rebounded in the second quarter to outscore the Lady Crusaders by a 12-10 count to cut the lead at the half to 25-12 in favor of the Lady Crusaders.
Elk Catholic's defense took charge again in the third quarter as they held the Lady Rovers to three points, while the Lady Crusaders scored nine points to push their lead to 19 points and a 34-15 score going into the final eight minutes of play.
Brockway outscored the Lady Crusaders 11 to 8 in the final period to make the final score 42-26.
Game notes
Elk Catholic is now 5-3 on the season and 1-1 in the North Division of the AML. Brockway is 3-5 on the season and is 2-0 in the South Division of the AML.
The Lady Crusaders will return to action on Saturday evening when they play host to the Sheffield Lady Wolverines in another AML contest. The JV game is slated for 6 p.m., with the varsity game set for 7:30 p.m.

The recent attempt to terminate both the ethanol subsidies of $.45 a gallon and the $.54-per-gallon import tariff on Brazilian sugar-based ethanol by the Senate failed because it was an amendment attached to a bill that was doomed to failure anyway. Both will cease on December 31 automatically, ending 33 years of subsidizing the ethanol industry; however, food prices are likely to stay high anyway. The main reason is neither the subsidy nor the tariff, but the mandate by the government requiring gasoline refiners to continue to increase their usage of ethanol when blending their gasoline products. Under the 2007 Renewable Fuels Standard, the United States is required to use 12.6 billion gallons of ethanol this year, increasing to 15 billion in 2015, and 36 billion gallons by the year 2022.
The ethanol producers have largely accepted the reality saying that those subsidies of $6 billion a year aren't needed anymore. With oil prices at $100 a barrel, the fuel blenders such as Valero, Archer Daniels Midland, and POET haven't needed the subsidies to make a profit, because ethanol costs less than gasoline in many of their markets. Even Bob Dinneen, president of the Renewable Fuels Association, has changed his mind.

EnergyFlex House: Green Building Eco-Laboratory in Denmark
Two eco-houses in Taastrup, Denmark have been built by the Danish Technological Institute in cooperation with Henning Larsen Architects to serve as a high-tech laboratory intended to guide the future of green building. EnergyFlex House features two 2,100 square foot structures packed with the latest in green design technology and materials. One structure serves as a laboratory to study and document green systems and materials, while the other houses a family full time.
What makes EnergyFlex House unique, besides its status as the first Danish energy neutral single-family house, is its adaptability to changing conditions. Unlike a traditional model house, EnergyFlex House is not a final product, but a tool to advance the innovation of ideas and prototypes that can be brought to market. It's a flexible platform that can be easily adapted and modified by adding or removing components to study various housing types. The facility opened in late 2009 and has already generated valuable information for research of new sustainable systems.
The Danish Technological Institute describes the EnergyFlex House as "a playground for energy efficient technology" and it's easy to see why. An online dashboard keeps tabs on all the energy used in the house live around the clock. The EnergyFlex House monitors 790 data points including its solar heating and photovoltaic capacity along with its electricity use and water consumption. It even keeps tabs on whether the electric car in the garage is charged and it's smart enough to project results into the future.
