Third Street
On one block in New York City, good design and readilyavailable materials trump fancy technology.
In a departure from the norm of trying to make a building energy efficient by adding fancy gadgets, two apartment houses just built in New York City achieve extreme energy efficiency by combining normal materials with better design. Each building features a minimum efficiency boiler,R- 11 wall insulation, standard aluminumframe windows, and concrete-block walls.The result: the first energy-efficient buildings built for the same cost as codeminimum construction.
One of the new apartment buildings is a six-story, 38-family building at 299 East 3rd Street; the other is a seven-story, 22-family building down the block at 228 East 3rd Street. They were completed earlier this year for $121 per square foot. The buildings were also designed to be healthy for the occupants and exceptionally durable.
The apartment buildings appear so similar to normal construction that the general contractor, Doron Resheff of Resheff, Incorporated, who has 30 years of experience as a builder and is also an engineer, didn't know he was building energy-efficient buildings until Green- HomeNYC's annual tour of green buildings.When he was asked for permission to have the public tour his job site, Resheff said "Sure, have the tour,but what will you show the people except for something different about the front and back walls?"At this point he had finished over one fourth of the job and didn't think he was doing anything particularly unusual.
The developer, Mary Spink, said, "The hardest part of managing new buildings is the complaints about noise between apartments and heating systems that never work."She hired Chris Benedict, a New York City architect known for quality design, to create buildings that would not have these problems. I designed most of the mechanical systems, continuing a long-term close collaboration with her (see "From Ruin to Rehab,"HE May/June '00, p. 24).
Benedict started by designing innovative walls (see Figure 1, p.26). She worked with building scientists and structural engineers to design the loadbearing front and rear walls with the usual combination of brick, concrete block, insulation, and gypsum board, but rearranged the materials so that the wall could include a drainage plane and an air barrier.The drainage plane manages rain that leaks into the wall, minimizing water damage.The air barrier prevents most of the heating and cooling loads otherwise caused by air leaking through the walls, helps the ventilation system work as designed, and prevents warm, humid air from condensing on a cool surface inside the wall.
Eight-inch concrete blocks support precast concrete floor/ceiling slabs, but that is where the similarity to normal walls ends. A normal wall of this type would have bricks on the outside, touching or almost touching the block wall, and 3 1/2 inches of fiberglass insulation between interior studs.The typical wall has no drainage plane to handle rain that penetrates the brick cladding, and is therefore vulnerable to water problems. Instead, Benedict's wall design has 3 inches of mineral wool insulation installed between the bricks and the concrete blocks. Gypsum board is mounted on studs just thick enough to hold electric boxes.This allows the insulation to be installed in a continuous layer, without the usual interruptions for floor/ceiling slabs, studs, pipes, and wires.This makes it much more effective than a thicker, but interrupted, layer of insulation.
Thoroseal, a cement paste, is brushed on to the outside of the blocks to act as a barrier to air and liquid water.Water that leaks past the bricks can drain through the insulation, which is hydrophobic, and any water that reaches the back side of the cavity can drain down the front side of the block wall. Weep holes and stainless-steel flashing at the bottom of the wall guide the water out of the wall.Any water that makes it further into the wall assembly can dry to either direction, because there is no vapor barrier in the wall.
Another advantage of locating the insulation closer to the outside of the wall is that the thermal mass of the load-bearing blocks and concrete planks is inside the thermal boundary. This reduces the peak heating and cooling loads while reducing thermal movement and cracking of the structure.
These walls fit in the general category of "cavity wall" because of the space behind the brick cladding. Cavities are included for many different reasons,some more sensible than others, and can be built in many different ways.The most common design in the New York City area involves supporting the bricks on steel shelf angles every one or two stories.
Benedict wanted to avoid shelf angles because they can be difficult to attach to precast planks, are notorious for rusting and needing replacement periodically, and are perceived as being very expensive. Instead, the whole height of her brick wall is supported from the foundation at street level.
As in a normal masonry wall, a system of steel wires reinforces the block wall and reaches out with hooks to hold the bricks. The wire in Benedict's wall is longer to accommodate the thickness of the cavity. In most buildings, this wire is plain steel with a galvanized coating that is destroyed by rust, perhaps in a few decades. This is long enough for many people, but since the wire is in the structural walls of the building, it means major structural repairs to the building long before other parts have reached the ends of their lives. Benedict specified stainless steel wire throughout the exterior walls, which will presumably make the building last much longer than it otherwise would have.
One major problem with masonry walls is differential movement of the brick and concrete over the years.The concrete continues shrinking for years, which is known as creep, and bricks expand over time.The differential movement may be as much as 1/4 inch per floor, enough to cause big problems. But in these buildings the windows are mounted in the block walls only, not partly in each wall, as in others, and there are no hard connections between the two walls, so the reinforcing wires can accommodate the differential movement and let the two walls move independently over the years. A gap between the top of the brick cladding and the bottom of the coping stones on the roof, which rest on the top of the concrete block wall, prevents the movement from dislodging the coping, and will gradually close up over the years.
Since the windows are installed in the block wall only, they are not floating partway between the blocks and the bricks; this makes it easy to connect the windows to the air barrier. Caulk is applied on the interior of the block walls between the windows and the flashing to make the connection. The caulk is located where it is thermally stable, dry, and protected from UV light, and so is expected to continue functioning for the life of the building. No caulk is applied to the exterior of the building. This leaves an untreated joint between the windows and the bricks, which allows some air to leak through the wall cavity, which can dry the wall after a rainstorm.
The walls on the sides of the building are entirely different.They support only their own weight, not the weight of floor/ceiling planks. Since they are lotline walls, they have no openings for windows or doors. They are also built with 8-inch concrete blocks, but are finished on the outside with 3 inches of foam insulation covered with stucco.This general category of wall system, known as exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS), is notorious for failure. Delaminating of gypsum sheathing results from water entry at window openings.These walls have no gypsum sheathing or windows, which makes them much less vulnerable to failure. This type of wall is simple and inexpensive, yet has a continuous insulation layer.Thoroseal applied to the interior side of the concrete block sidewalls acts as an air barrier.
The air barrier at the exterior walls of the building continues to the walls between apartments, which are built using the airtight drywall approach.The gypsum board is caulked to the floor and ceiling, and the electric boxes are airtightened with duct mastic.This makes each apartment an airtight compartment. Blower door testing on each apartment showed that the median tightness is 1.2 ACH/hr at 50 Pa, considered very tight.The New York City building code requires soundproofing between apartments, which probably cannot be achieved without air tightening. Since this part of the code is routinely ignored, it is difficult to say whether air tightening is an extra or not.
When we have tours of the buildings, we play a boom-box radio very loudly in one apartment and take the visitors to the apartment on the other side of the wall.We love to watch the faces in the crowd because everyone who has ever lived in an apartment grins upon realizing it is difficult or impossible to tell whether the radio is playing.
We Built It Tight, Now We'll Ventilate It Right
Air tightening helps make the ventilation system work. Fans continuously exhaust air out of each bathroom and kitchen. Air is drawn through trickle vents located in the window above the hot water convector heater in each bedroom. If the apartments had air leaks all over, air would be fed to the exhaust louvers from the nearest leak without passing through any other rooms. Because of air tightening, air moves through each bedroom, through the common areas, then out through the bathroom and kitchen vents, providing continuous ventilation to all rooms at all times. The trickle vents and airflow regulators at each air intake are the only materials in the building that are not available from a local supplier.
In a typical apartment building, the ventilation system is a vertical duct connecting a stack of bathrooms or kitchens to a fan on the roof. Automatic fire dampers and thick fireproofing on the ducts are supposed to stop spread
of smoke and fire through the system. However, central ventilation systems are notorious for overventilating upperfloor apartments and underventilating lower-floor apartments, and Benedict didn¡¯t think it made much sense to build airtight compartments and then connect them with air ducts.
Instead, she designed separate systems that exhaust the air out the sidewall of each apartment, using the existing holes in the concrete planks for part of the ductwork (see photo, p.28).This system violated three parts of the New York City building code, including the provision prohibiting mechanical exhaust out the sidewall of a building. On the sidewall venting issue, she argued that a bathroom or kitchen with a window is not required to have mechanical ventilation, but yet it vents out the sidewall. She got a special waiver for the system she designed, which uses a quiet inline Panasonic fan behind an access door in a closet ceiling, pulling air from the bathroom and kitchen, and pushing it through the hole in the plank and out through a louver on the exterior wall of the building.
This system uses much less electricity per apartment than a typical roof fan system uses, cannot move sound, smoke, or fire from one apartment to another, and is much cheaper than a typical system. It is so much cheaper that even the ventilation subcontractor admitted that it was cheaper. It also avoids the problems associated with roof penetrations that require the coordination of roofers, carpenters, duct installers, and electricians.We have 112 apartments in 29 buildings operating with this ventilation system, many for more than five years, with no complaints.
Avoiding overventilation, and cutting air leaks to a minimum, both help to reduce the peak heating load to a fraction of what it would otherwise be. If the heating system is sized by guessing, these reductions in load have no effect on heating system size, but Benedict does her own heat load calculations, and these, of course, take into account the low infiltration load.Thus, the money spent on air tightening yields savings by allowing smaller heaters, piping, and pumps and a smaller boiler, and the improved ventilation system saves money on both the ventilation system and the heating system.
Now Let's Provide Just Enough Heat
A convector heater that is supplied with hot water pumped from the boiler heats each room; a thermostat controls each heater. The thermostats are the nonelectric knob type, which have waxfilled capsules in the head, and last for decades.These capsules expand and contract in response to changes in room temperature, thereby varying the flow of water through the heater. The thermostats are limited to a high of 73oF, although the tenants can set them lower if they want to.
These thermostats prevent uneven heating or overheating, saving huge amounts of energy.They permit a smaller boiler because without thermostats, during the coldest night of the year the boiler would have to adequately heat the windward side of the building while overheating the leeward side of the building. But with thermostats, the boiler will never see a load higher than what will adequately heat each apartment on the coldest night of the year, so the thermostats pay for themselves on construction costs by allowing the boiler, piping, and heating water pump to be about 25% smaller than they would otherwise have to be.
The result is a 38-family building getting heat and hot water from a boiler—rated at 1,082,000 Btu/hr input and 872,000 Btu/hr output—so small that it has a 10-inch flue. To put this in perspective, a single- family house or a small row house in New York City might have a 10-inch flue.
The boiler heats domestic hot water in coils, and an electronic mixing valve accurately controls the temperature to within a few degrees of 120oF. A 100W pump continuously circulates domestic hot water through the hot water supply and return piping, all of which is insulated with 1 1/2 inch wall thickness fiberglass insulation.The first 3 feet of each branch off the mains is also insulated, minimizing heat loss from the piping—this is not a problem in winter because the heat lost from the piping stays in the building, but in the summer it increases the air conditioning load.
Locating the boiler room on the roof means using cheaper real estate than basement or ground-floor space, and saves the space and cost of a tall chimney (see "Why Install a Boiler in the Basement?"p.25). A tall chimney pulls lots of
air through the hottest part of the building—the boiler—all day and all night, including when the boiler is not firing.A short chimney pulls much less air when the boiler is not firing, saving perhaps 30%—C40% of the annual fuel bill.
I chose a normal cast-iron boiler with a fan-forced on/off gas burner, which runs at about 82% steady state efficiency.(Never mind that it is not a steady state device!) A high-efficiency condensing boiler might run at 97% on a good day, or 92% at other times, averaging perhaps 94% efficiency.The cost of fuel for heat and hot water for 299 East 3rd Street is expected to be about $410 per apartment per year, for a total of $15,600 for 38 apartments. A more efficient boiler might save about 12% of that, or $1,870 per year, plus whatever standby losses are avoided with sealed combustion equipment.However, there are reasons why I did not choose a more efficient boiler.
A more efficient arrangement would be a single high-efficiency sealed combustion boiler and an indirect water heater (tank with a coil), which I would specify for a small building, but these buildings are too large to be supplied with hot water from a single tank. Multiple tanks are expensive to buy and complicated to pipe properly, as are multiple small boilers; thus, I thought they would add too much cost and complication to justify the savings.
Four years ago, Mary Spink built a building around the corner at 535 East 5th Street, with a similar low-efficiency cast-iron boiler.The cost for repairs during those years has been only $300 for a new ultraviolet sensor on the gas burner. This is another reason I did not choose more complicated heating equipment—because of parts that are hard to replace, a lack of familiarity among service people, and other reasons, for instance that complicated equipment costs more to fix! Fifth Street is a good comparison building because it was built with normal construction methods but a welldesigned heating system. It uses only 22% of the energy an average New York City apartment house uses for making heat and hot water (see "A Useful Comparison"). This shows that the biggest area for savings in buildings of this type is in the heating system.This is because it is harder to deliver heat evenly to large buildings, which increases the chances of people's controlling temperatures by opening windows.More panes of glass in a window save no energy if people open the windows, so improving the windows and walls is useless unless the heating system works really well.
Fifth Street is also useful for predicting how much energy Benedict's buildings will use. Since her buildings have better insulation on the hot water piping, the energy used to heat water is expected to drop below 15% of the New York City average. How low the space-heating energy will get is harder to predict,but it will probably be well below 20% of the city average.
Benedict's design for the building envelope could have been improved by specifying better windows and more insulation, but paying for these improvements by saving a portion of the $142- per-apartment-per-year projected heating cost is a hopeless proposition.
Electricity Use Is Important Too
The owner's electricity bills will also be very low. I designed a water pressure booster pump system that costs less to install than a normal system, while using less than 5% of the electricity of a normal system, and specified an elevator that is slightly slower than what would normally be used for a building of this height, but which uses much less electricity than a normal elevator would use. Benedict specified stairway lighting that automatically dims until motion sensors detect people coming and turn it up to full power, and energyefficient lighting throughout the rest of the building.
The outdoor lighting control design I worked out, which should be commonplace, is something I've never seen done elsewhere. Automatic photocells built into fixtures can turn the lights on and off at the right time, but are notoriously expensive to replace. Cheap hardware store photocells mounted separately have a reputation for short lives. Therefore, many apartment house managers prefer time clocks. The problem with time clocks is that pins need to be constantly reset as the times of sunset and sunrise change, which often causes the lights to be on when unnecessary or off when they should be on—unless you know someone who can figure out how to reprogram one of those astronomic models after every time the power goes off.
The solution I worked out, which is cheap and logical,was to have the electrician wire a cheap hardware store photocell to the coil of a $30 switching relay, and wire the relay to switch all the outdoor lighting on and off.This produces the best of both worlds.The cheap photocell is as reliable as a time clock because the photocell sees only the load of the relay coil, but also switches the lights on and off at the right times.
What Next?
This project was completed without any additional money or grants subsidizing the energy efficiency goals for the building (see "Extra Costs for Efficiency and Comfort"). People ask,"Why not get a grant to do what you are doing?"
Chris Benedict and I feel that every time someone gets a grant to do something better in a building, it sends subtle messages that without grant money you can't be energy efficient.
Other people ask if we use a checklist to find out whether the buildings are energy efficient or green. No, we have not, nor do we plan to.The most toxic materials are the floor finishes and latex caulking, the apartments are ventilated better than almost any others and have radon mitigation strategies, they are durable enough to stay out of the landfill much longer than other buildings currently being built, and they will use a small fraction of the energy other buildings use. Ironically, they would perhaps not qualify as energy efficient because the walls are insulated to only R-11, because there is no slab or perimeter insulation at the ground floor (because the small energy loss will help dry the masonry walls where they are perhaps most vulnerable), and because the owner doesn't like double-door entrance vestibules. But as soon as we have a utility bill history,we will be glad to compare energy use to that of buildings that pass the checklists.
The other question we get is "Why not put up solar panels?"We have nothing against solar, but feel that it doesn't pay with current low, subsidized energy prices in the United States. Instead of getting grants to bring the price (but not the cost) down to levels at which it pays,we think it would be better for the government to stop subsidizing energy.
Since we can't do anything about that,we are doing what we can: making an honest living proving that over 80% of the energy used by an average apartment house is wasted, and that this waste could be eliminated while making the building more healthy and comfortable to live in, all at no extra construction cost.We encourage people to copy from us and to find ways to beat us by making buildings even more efficient at no extra cost. After that,we can talk about spending extra money on buildings.

Anyway, whatever it is, try a small flat driver, as in 'Watchmaker S'Driver' set, and select the largest one that will fit inside of, or around the driver slot.
It may not fit centrally, but it may give enough purchase to free the screw. Sometimes I may file a notch into the Driver blade to overcome the 'Post in the middle' problem.
The hot metal is softer, allowing you to simpley drive your screwdriver into it and (hopefullly) create a new screw hole.
Hope this works. If not, let me know, ok?
But like I've said before, be careful not to melt the plastic on the laptops casing, because that may cause problems in the future with the circuitry inside and the case.
i dont really feel comfortable sticking a hot screwdriver in it at this point. How hot are you recomending?
How how? Well, the metal of the screwdriver would need to be red-hot. I'm guessing you don't want to do that, either.
I was thinking you could go to a craft or hard ware store, and look for a knife with a long handle. You can stick it into the hole and chip away at the metal on the screw. I suggest you wear protective gloves so you don't chip away at your hands, instead.
If that doesn't work, again, let me know. I have a few more things up my sleeve.
The Flush mount screw
Today i used it for removing an engine from an old calculetor, of those whitch had someting that printed in a paper what you've been calculating...
And this method worked exelently...
Thanks a lot!

Just outside the bright lights, bawdy shows, and grandiose structures, there's a Vegas that stretches beyond that dense, 3.5-mile-long line of hotel-casinos on Las Vegas Boulevard known as the Strip. Slightly removed from the incessant hustle are a number of hotels -- located anywhere from a five-minute walk to a five- to 10-minute taxi or shuttle ride from the center of the action -- that offer closer proximity to the Las Vegas Convention Center, a quieter night's sleep, or, at times, a bit more bang for the buck.
But the downside to any off-the-Strip property is -- you guessed it -- its distance from the Strip. Walking under the Nevada sun is no easy feat, and many of these hotels are surrounded by long, shadeless roads and empty lots. Some hotels offer a shuttle service to the Strip during the day, but you're likely to get stuck taking cab after cab if you want to drink and dine and play on the Strip all night -- and that can get expensive quick. But then again, a few select hotels, such as the Hard Rock or the Rio, are large enough and wild enough that many guests never bother to leave.
Many off-the-Strip lodging options are time-share hotels or condo-hotels (some with fully-stocked kitchens) or just your average, bland business hotel. In general, these are places with a decreased emphasis on fine dining, posh pool scenes, swank design, fun entertainment, gambling, and many of the other things that draw people to Vegas in the first place. But what they do have, occasionally, is value -- especially for a family or a large group. Check out the Las Vegas Hilton (featuring Barry Manilow) or the Marriott Suites, both right by the Convention Center, or try the Gold Coast, which is typically dirt cheap, but plenty clean.
Some of the more traditional, outrageous Strip-style hotels can be found about a five- to 10-minute drive from the Strip. The Palms and Hard Rock hotel-casinos, for example, are two of the most infamous party hotels in Vegas -- just take a look at these photos of the Hard Rock pool -- and both have great spas, gyms, and restaurants (though, maybe not as great as some of the other leading hotels on the Strip). For an even more affordable party hotel, check out the Rio or the Hooters hotel-casinos.

Barrow Borough Council to take bigger share of tax
Last updated at 16:25, Wednesday, 27 February 2013
BARROW residents can expect a 1.9 per cent hike in the proportion of their council tax paid to the borough council after councillors voted through their 2013-14 budget last night.
The increase is the maximum an authority can levy without triggering a referendum and comes after the council declined a government grant to freeze tax levels.
The council has budgeted for an overall reduction in spending from its general fund of 15 per cent from £13,163,698 in 2012-13 to £11,168,690 in 2013-14.
Among the expected savings are a 4.6 per cent reduction in staff wages, a 23 per cent drop in supplies and services and a 25.6 per cent decline in transport costs.
But the budget will see the cost of a number of council services rising when the new financial year begins in April.
Car parking charges will rise by 10p to £1.30 and £2.30 for one and two-hour stays respectively, and monthly staff parking permits will increase by £2.
The cost of many activities at The Park Leisure Centre – including swimming, fitness classes and children's play sessions – will all rise by 10p.
Conservative opposition councillors put forward their own budget based on accepting the government's grant to freeze council tax, but the proposal was rejected.
Under the opposition's plans, a government grant to freeze council tax would be accepted and the cost of services would also be frozen.
The alternative budget would have seen car parking charges frozen as part of the package.
Other suggestions included funding for the Neighbourhood Management Team and Dalton and Askam Rural Projects' Support Officer being retained and funding for dog fouling bags increased to £5,000.
A further £20,000 would have been promised to the Dock Museum to allow it to extend its opening hours.

Have your say
Why are they allowed to reject government money in favour of raising council tax by 1.9% just under the referendum threshold (democracy dodging) and increase other charges when the alternative budget sounds like the better deal for residents and council tax payers. Is it because the alternative threatens there inflated salaries and pensions in favour of spending the money on services the one thing the council is supposed to provide!
Any guesses what level the governments refereundum trigger on council tax rises is bearing in mind the trigger is set by the Tory/Lib Dem coalition and Barrow Borough Council is run by a Labour majority...?2%

Rated 5 out of 5 by ole granny Awesome dryer. My best ever! Great dyer. quiet dries good. steam cleaned a neck tie and some dress pants to freshen them up and worked well. save on dry clean bill. a little expensive but top of the line product. May 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MAW2013 Best dryer I've ever had I've never had an LG before and I was a little skeptical of trying such a big name, but wow. Seriously, this is a great dryer. It uses hardly any power. It's quiet, easy to use. I love it. Highly recommended. May 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by kylecait92 Great steam dryer Love the dryer and matching washer!! The steam feature is great! We throw my husbands dress shirt and pants for church on the quick steam fresh setting and it takes all the wrinkles in about 20 minutes. Dries great, seldom have any issues with something not drying all the way. Have owned for over two months with no complaints. April 22, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Ed Worked great for six months We bought this dryer with our wedding money and within six months the heating element stopped working. When it works, it's fantastic--the steam fresh option is great for getting shirts "work ready" in a pinch. We bought it for the steam sanitation option for our newborn's clothes but it has broken three times in the past four months. For the number of headaches and trips to the laundromat we've taken, I'd say look elsewhere for a dryer. May 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by 1stHome10 Really happy! I have a small laundry room/entry from garage so I was excited to get my pair of front loading washer/dryer so I have room on the top to fold clothes. The dryer has worked very well so far. Nice and quiet, easy to use, and I like the steam option. The only thing that didn't dry all the way was a thick rug, so I should have used timed dry because the censor thought it was dry too soon. Other than that it has done great with heavy loads like jeans and sheets and towels. It even has a cute chime at the end of the cycle that my mom thought was so neat! April 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mary63 Great dryer! Very quite, dries clothes with very few wrinkles and the steam fresh works great! April 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by jodimari54 great dryer we bought this with the matching washer and both are super. we stacked ours due to lack of space and ther look great. we did have to buy the lg side vent kit and my husband put it on in 10 minutes, everything works perfect. March 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Suzanne Love, love love this dryer!! This is the perfect dryer for my family! It thoroughly dries loads of jeans, has the wrinkle free steam feature and is very quiet. It evens plays a little tune to let you know that your clothes have finished the drying cycle. It is a quality item at a great price! April 12, 2014

very true
This outstanding video provides a beautiful reason that rings true about our recital of Vidui on Yom Kippur. Has-hem does care about every nuance of our actions, and our recital of vidui ten times takes us more in depth each time into the nuance of our negative actions and causes of our negative actions.

This video was excellent! Perhaps the lesson this associate learned was that one should work smarter as opposed to working harder. Was he treated shabbily by the senior partners? Of course he was. However, if he learned something from this traumatic experience then it was not wasted. Sometimes we operate according to what we THINK our bosses, spouses, etc. want without checking to see if our perceptions are accurate. Yes, in the workplace we always need to see if what we are doing is in alignment with what our boss wants us to be doing.

And to add on in response to Rahel's comment, G-d does care, and He did care about that young lawyer, but we just dont know the whole story bec Charlie Harary was only bringing in a tiny bit of the mans story to teach us a lesson, but you are right that it could seem like G-d is leading him on for 10 yrs for nothing, but actually G-d cares about him and every person more than we can ever imagine, and there is a reason that man had to go though that, we dont know the reason, maybe he learnt the valuable lesson of life from it which later on in life helped him out, or maybe something else good came from it. we dont know. but garanteed there was a reason, G-d is taking care of every single one of His children

When Egbert Neuhaus visited the U.S. as a German exchange student in the '70s, he came across an aluminum household trashcan—and fell in love. He brought the idea home Wesco, his father's metal manufacturing company in Germany, which got to work redesigning the device. The distinctive, industrial-strength result inspired an entire family of products, including this Kickmaster Junior rubbish bin.

I used the following as a general reference, and for the names of the parts (several of which I did not previously know):
Step 1: Breastplate and Backplate
For the front and back plates (together these are called a cuirass), I first drew a flat shaped based on my body measurements. For the front I used these:
- front of the waist (a little more than half my waist measurement)
- length from waist to shoulder across bust
- length from waist to bottom of neck hole
- front of the bust (quite a bit more than half my bust measurement)
- width from arm to arm, above the bust
- length from waistline to underarm hole
- back of the waist
- length from waist to shoulder
- length from waist to bottom of neck hole
- width from underarm to underarm
- width from arm to arm across the shoulder blades
Cut out the pieces with a knife of some kind - a utility knife or box cutter works well. Cut only the lower side of the dart marking all the way through. The upper side, cut through only the top layer of cardboard. Then peel the top layer and the corrugations off, revealing the inside of the corrugated sheet. It looks like a small flap. To construct the darts, bend the cardboard so the dart edges meet, and hot glue the flap down to the outside of the front plate.
It's easier to bend the cardboard if you score the inside first, just run the cap of a pen firmly along the line you want to bend on. A stiff ruler helps a lot for scores that run diagonally to the corrugations. In addition to the bust area, score and bend the shoulders and sides.
so fun!
I'm using your pauldron tutorial for part of a Halloween costume... granted I'm going to embellish a bit more, with spikes and whatnot, but overall a really good tutorial on basic pauldron shapes!
We were working in a stores then and Saturday mornings were really quiet so we made cardboard armour and some would guard the mezzanine while others tried to capture it. At one time we were using the forklift as a siege engine.
Forklifts are the ultimate siege engines!
I'm making paper armor that takes me 100 hours.
My 9yr is almost finished with his costume and I basically just supervised (and did the exacto knife work leaving him with the scissors stuff).
To give it a nice finish we decided against paint but rather are using aluminum foil with a dab of glue and he will call it the SilverNight.
As well, a shield will be attached to one of the arm vambraces.
What's missing though is gold paint and a dragon design on th breastplate. Still, really cool...
For the 3D pauldron bit :D I started with a 13"x13" square and scored the diagonal... I cut the score halfway to create a triangle and curled/trimmed the corners... Hrmm.. probably hard to picture from that description - so yes, instructable coming soon (along with everything else waiting - including meatloaf cupcakes :p).
I made the chest and back plate with mostly 2D planes - which solves the 3D issues of faulds. But, in my case, it makes the butt piece stick out funny (so I cut it a little shorter). Yes, there were a few "Assless Chaps" jokes - but the cape covered that up :p
More images here - but that's before I curled the pauldrons down properly...

Sociology Graduate Program
Areas of Study
The Ph.D. degree in Sociology is offered jointly with the University of Akron (Ohio) located approximately 8 miles from Kent. The degree offers specialties in four areas:
The Sociology of Health and Mental Health
- Social Psychology
- Social Inequalities
- Criminology and Deviance
Students wishing to pursue a doctoral degree in the joint doctoral program must be admitted to either Kent State University OR the University of Akron. While the degree is earned at the university of admittance, once admitted to the program, students, faculty, and courses are treated as a single graduate department. Coursework is offered at both campuses and faculty and students interchange freely.
Doctoral Program
Admission Requirements
Applications for admission are accepted from those who will have a completed baccalaureate or master's degree upon starting the program. It is limited to students whose records clearly indicate both scholarly and research potential to do doctoral level work. For applicants who will have a completed master's degree from another institution upon starting the program, the master's degree/thesis and up to 12 credit hours of relevant coursework with a grade of "B" (3.0 on a 4-point scale) or better from accredited institutions may be accepted for transfer towards the doctoral degree, subject to approval by the Sociology Department and college dean.
All applicants must submit official transcript(s) indicating at least a 3.2 overall undergraduate GPA (on a 4-point scale) from an accredited institution. That is the department's expectation. At the university level, students cannot be unconditionally admitted into graduate programs in the College of Arts & Sciences without an undergraduate GPA of 3.0 or higher. For applicants with a master's degree, a GPA of 3.5 (on a 4-point scale) for all graduate work is required for admission to the doctoral program. In addition, all applicants must submit scores from the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) taken within the last five years (ideally above the 60th percentile in all three areas), three letters of recommendation from current/former professors who can adequately evaluate the applicant's past work and potential, and a 1-2 page statement describing the applicant's current academic interests, research interests, long-range career goals, and how admission to the Department of Sociology at Kent State University will facilitate the achievement of these goals.
Degree Requirements
Doctoral program aspirants who do not hold the M.A. upon starting the program must complete all the requirements for the (intermediate) master's degree, which amount to 32 total credit hours, including 14 hours of required courses, 12 hours of electives, and 6 hours of Thesis I (62199) toward completing and successfully defending a master's thesis.
Requirements for the Ph.D. degree include 14 additional semester hours of required coursework and 14 additional hours of elective coursework, passing the doctoral candidacy examination (involving an evaluation of theory, methodology, analysis, and other topics relevant to the student's specialty areas), and 30 credits hours of Dissertation I (SOC 82199) toward completing and successfully defending a dissertation. In total, the Ph.D program involves 90 hours of required and elective coursework, thesis hours, and dissertation hours. Students entering the program with a B.A. can complete it in five years. Students entering with an M.A. can complete it in less time.
Funding Opportunities
A Ph.D.-level teaching fellowship or graduate assistantship carries an award of $15,500 per academic year, a remission of tuition, and health benefits.
Master's Program (only as part of Ph.D. program)
Admission Requirements
The Department of Sociolopgy at Kent State University no longer offers a terminal master's degree (i.e. students do not enter our graduate program with the intention of earning an M.A. only). Rather, for students who will enter our program with a B.A., the Master of Arts in Sociology is an intermediate degree required of students in our department as they work towards a Ph.D. in sociology.
Doctoral program aspirants who do not hold the M.A. upon starting our doctoral program must complete all the requirements for the (intermediate) master's degree, which amount to 32 total credit hours, including 14 hours of required courses, 12 hours of electives, and 6 hours of Thesis I (62199) toward completing and successfully defending a master's thesis.
In short, all students interested in our graduate program should apply to the doctoral program. As mentioned above, students accepted into the program that enter with a B.A. will earn an M.A. along the way toward completing the doctoral degree.
See our Doctoral Program page for more details, including admission standards and basic program requirements.
Funding Opportunities
An M.A.-level graduate assistantship carries an award of $14,500 per academic year, a remission of tuition, and health benefits.
