iPod @ CES 2006 Part II: Early Announcements
iLounge CES 2006 Coverage Index: » Part I - Diamonds and Coal: Commentary and Expectations » Part II - Early Announcements from Alpine, Belkin, Shure, and more! » Part III - From the Show Floor » Part IV - Follow the iPod & Showstoppers » Part V - Show Floor Report Day 2 » Part VI - Hitch, and the Rest of the Show
As promised, here are a collection of new iPod accessory announcements from the 2006 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. We'll have considerable additional reporting from the show floor tomorrow.
Alpine: The aftermarket car accessory maker has announced the Full Speed Connection for iPod ($30, below), an iPod connection cable that is its "third-generation solution for integrated iPod use in the car." Full Speed is promised to be 200% faster than the prior Alpine solution, providing full ID3 tag details through one of seven 2006 model year source units, which range from $200 to $1200 in price. Quick Searching and Percentage Searching features enable the iPod to be scanned quickly for files, the latter feature only available in four of the source units.
Audio-Technica: The Japanese headphone and microphone developer has announced plans to release the Import Series, a series of Japanese headphones "available for the first time in the U.S." All of the headphones have been on the market in Japan for some time, and are being sold in the United States at significant premiums. Models of most interest to iPod owners include the ATH-CM7 SV ($249) and ATH-CM7Ti ($299) earbuds, ATH-EC7 GM ($249) earbud/clip-on hybrids (discussed on iLounge in last month's report from Tokyo) the clip-ons ATH-EW9 ($329), ATH-EM9r ($299), ATH-EM7 ($119), and foldable earcups ATH-ES5 ($169).
Belkin: Belkin is showing TuneFM ($50), the iPod FM transmitter previously highlighted in our Holiday Buyers' Guide, and TuneBase FM ($80), the FM transmitter and car mount system featured in the same Guide. Newly announced is TuneCommand AV ($80), a docking station that provides audio-video output to a television set, and a wireless RF remote control with promised control distance of 120 feet. TuneCommand AV works with all Dock Connecting iPods via a system of replaceable trays, and provides eight buttons on its remote.
The company has also announced the separate Belkin AV Cable for iPod ($20), which offers a 12-foot distance from your iPod's headphone port or dock to a television or stereo system for audio and video playback.
Denon: The home theater and audio company has announced two new S-Series all-in-one Home Entertainment Systems, models S-301 ($1599, shown below) and S-101 ($999), each providing 2.1-channel audio, "simple, convenient connectivity," and iPod control. They are "complete and compact, featuring integrated DVD/receiver units with a stylish remote, dual satellite speakers and high-performance subwoofers," complementing the company's previously released AVR-4306 Home Theater Receiver, which included iPod integration.
iPort/Sonance: iPort has unveiled iPort FS ($150 and up), a series of black or white "freestanding iPort music systems that let iPod owners stream audio and photos to their home entertainment system and sync with iTunes, switching between the functions at the touch of a button." The company also notes separately that these docks, and its earlier ones, are compatible with iPod video streaming, as well. More deluxe iPort FS units "offer expanded benefits including the ability to control volume directly from the iPort itself, as well as the ability to view the iPod's song, album, artist and playlist information on high-end touch-screen control systems." The new iPort FS systems are planned for release this month.
Harman Kardon/JBL: iPod speaker maker JBL's Audioaccess division has announced the Audioaccess iPod Docking Station (price TBA, release date this month), which as the name suggests is an iPod docking station for its W.H.E.N. (Whole-House Entertainment Network) multi-room residental AV system. The Station holds the iPod on a table, connecting via cable to the whole-home network so that you can hear iPod music anywhere the system's speakers have been installed in your home. It provides power input and both audio and menu information output, so you can view iPod menus on an optional Color Audioaccess Touchscreen Controller (CATC) mounted elsewhere in the house. Intriguingly, an optional Audioaccess Control Server (CS-IP) will let you control your iPod and the system from a PDA, cell phone, PC, or other Web-compatible device.
JBL parent Harman Kardon also announced that its premium AVR 740 7.2-channel AV receiver ($3499) - the highest-end version of its previously debuted iPod-compatible home AV systems (AVR 140, 240, 340) will be shipping in February, with new 440 and 640 models at lower price points yet to be announced. An optional accessory called The Bridge, previously shown on iLounge, is required to connect your iPod to these systems, with an attractive on-screen interface appearing on your television screen upon connection. Your Bridged iPod can also be controlled with a new Activity Based Remote Control (TC30), which features an integrated color screen.
Kenwood: The mobile audio company has announced KDC-X990 ($580, shown above), KDC-X790 ($350) and KDC-X590 ($260), new premium Excelon aftermarket car receivers with External Media Control, an integration system that lets the stereo control a connected iPod. X990 has a new 4,096-color Organic Electroluminescent display, and can make voice announcements of playlist, artist, and track data, while the lower-end models use less impressive displays and lack the voice announcement functionality.
Motorola: The maker of RAZR, ROKR, SLVR and PEBL is showing its most recent versions of each of these devices. ROKR E2, which as previously reported on iLounge no longer supports iTunes, appears to otherwise be a very significant improvement on the widely panned E1. A high-resolution display with all-new user interface, 1.3 Megapixel integrated camera, and terrestrial radio tuner are just a few of the new features, and the revamped black body looks less disposable (though thicker) than the prior model.
We also saw and were impressed by the thin, RAZR-like MOTO Q, the company's Windows Mobile-ready smartphone, as well as a variety of new Bluetooth monaural and stereo headsets. The stereo headset shown here is being shown as compatible with TEN Technology's naviPlay (below), and JBL's On Tour speakers are being used to demonstrate the musical output capabilities of certain new phones.
Nyko: Video game and iPod accessory maker Nyko is showing off Speaker Dock II, an iPod-docking speaker system that runs off of wall or battery power and looks like a second-generation iMac; a separate pair of slick non-portable iPod nano-specific speakers that run off of battery power and include a remote control; and a pocket-sized combination of distressed leather iPod nano case and stereo speakers (not available for photography).
The former two accessories will sell for under $100, and sounded generally impressive in our limited testing, while the latter will likely sell for under $50. Nyko also showed a collection of speaker-less distressed ("Vintage") leather cases for the iPod nano (below). All of these items will likely be available in the very near future.
Otter Products: Otter is publicly showing its OtterBox for iPod nano, which we've reviewed and very much liked (iLounge rating: A-).
Shure: The high-end headphone specialist has announced E500 ($499), "the new flagship for the award-winning E Series product line." Like Ultimate Ears' ultra-premium UE-10 Pro earphones, E500 uses a triple-driver design inside of a "tiny," over-the-ear "comfortable new bronze metallic" enclosure. One tweeter is paired with two woofers, and external sound isolation is listed as 30-37dB with soft sleeves. A new Push-to-Hear modular accessory is bundled with each E500 headset, allowing users to "alternate between complete immersion in their music or [have] a connection with outside ambient sounds," "activat[ing] an external microphone and mut[ing] the music." The accessory will also be sold separately for other Shure headsets for $59. Both will ship in May, 2006.
Targus: The vendor of excellent prior-generation iPod RF remote control RemoteTunes (iLounge rating: A-) has announced RemoteTunes for iPod with Dock Connector ($60) and RemoteTunes TX for iPod nano - Wireless Remote and FM Transmitter ($80), both scheduled for release in March. As with the first RemoteTunes, these devices appear to be identical to new iJet offerings recently announced by ABT and shown on iLounge. The iPod nano RemoteTunes includes both a remote control and FM transmitter, while the standard RemoteTunes works with all Dock Connecting iPods, including the 5G version.
Targus also announced the 9-Pin to 30-Pin Adapter ($20), also for March release, which sounds identical to the accessory announced by ABT to convert old iPod top-mounting accessories into ones compatible with current model iPods. When connected to discontinued iPods, the Adapter also allows two top-mounting accessories to be used at once.

All this has been disruptive for execs who want to advance their own careers and those of their employees. Amidst all this turmoil and the distractions from career focus, something else has come to my attention lately in my own professional back yard. Life.
That's right – Life. At our small company (less than 100 employees) – just since the disappearance of Lehman Brothers and the troubles at Merrill, AIG, Fannie and Freddie – we have had two births; several pregnancies (employees and spouses); a couple of engagements; and some not-so-pleasant happenings as well.
Let's focus on the good stuff, especially so close to Mother's Day. Life will happen, even if it leads to "career interruptus." At our company and in my career, we've always tried hard to accommodate parenthood and family for our employees. It's inevitable in any productive work force that at least some employees will choose marriage and parenthood. While those life happenings often create disruptions (honeymoon vacations, parental leave, etc.,) they are inevitable and the accommodations can come with a silver lining.
By meeting employee life challenges with flexibility and creativity, retention of top workers increases and better morale is often a by-product. These events – while inconvenient for the employer – are extremely meaningful to employees. Our company has employees on flexible schedules and in some cases a certain amount of work is permitted to be done at home. That doesn't work for all companies and even in our case – not for all employees – but when it's possible it's an important perk.
Even in hard economic times, top employees have choices. And even those who stay put now might defect later if stung by inflexible policies and unfair treatment. Our advice: embrace your employees and their joy by making accommodations and listening to their needs. You can't always compromise when Life happens – and you won't always want to embrace Career Interruptus – but success begins with awareness.

For example, Chalkley gives a parenthetical note for one record indicating that he couldn't tell from the original source whether the person meant was "Hugh Keyes" or "Hugh Hayes". In this particular case, the record is probably for "Hugh Keyes", but has been included with the listing for Hugh Hays for the sake of the possibility that it really does refer to a Hugh Hays.

Looking for yarn, can you help?
A few years back my mom gave me a bunch of yarn that she no longer wanted. It was a fat chunky 100% cotton yarn, like a heavier version of the kind you make dishcloths with. I'm pretty sure she got it on clearance at Walmart, but I forgot to save a label, so I don't know the brand. I have used it all up in a rug, a bath mat, and a dish drying mat(which we use daily and I love). I want to make some more(maybe to sell or for gifts, but I need to find the yarn).
Here is a pic of the rug I made while it was in progress....
And here is the bath mat...
Has anyone seen this yarn before? Anywhere on line sell it? And do you know what weight it would be? It's not the normal 4 that cotton dishcloth yarn is, like I said, it is very chunky(works up quick). I've looked everywhere, including Hobby Lobby(which I supported today!).

I installed the daily build testing-om-gta02-20081125.rootfs.tar.gz onto my SD card.
The bootup hangs after the message "Starting portmap daemon portmapportmap: fork: no such device"
I was also getting messages about tar being unable to write to a read-only file system.
It looks like S03udev is trying to write to the root filesystem but it is still mounted read-only. It doesn't get remounted till S10checkroot.sh
When I renamed S10checkroot.sh to S01checkroot.sh I was able to boot the phone (but this may not not be the correct fix)

Obviously I do.
Co-Author me now.
Or I will sue you for the rights to my name.
James Earl Jones is the best
He's one of those rare voice actors who's vocals are so superior to that of the average man you would pay the price of an entire CD just to get a few tracks of him stating ordinary things. Morgan Freeman is also a bitchin' narrator.
What an outstanding tale.
James Earl Jones does have a bitchin voice. Your work is the greatest ever.

John McLaughlin & Paco de Lucia: Paco and John - Live at Montreux 1987 it's truly a shame that, all too often, artists with diverse careers become pigeon-holed, defined by the primary genre in which they first achieved notoriety. Take guitarist John McLaughlin, for instance. Ask most jazz fans about him and what will first come out of most of their mouths will include either the words "fusion," "jazz-rock" and/or Miles Davis, in any permutation/combination (not that there's anything wrong with that). Those a little further in the know might also be aware of his longstanding investigation into the nexus of eastern and western music with his Indo-collaboration, Shakti.
ESSENTIAL MONTREUX is a special edition, five CD box-set, by Northern Irish, blues rock guitarist and singer, Gary Moore. The box-set features five out of the six performances Gary Moore made at the Montreux Jazz Festival. His live performances at Montreux that feature in this box-set are Live at Montreux 1990, 1995, 1997, 1999 and 2001.
Features 24 bit remastering and comes with a mini-description. Recorded live at the 1971 Montreux Jazz Festival, the blistering Mongo at Montreux captures Mongo Santamaria in the absolute prime of his career, embracing all facets of his expansive musical vision for a set that is far more than the sum of its parts. Spanning from soulful Latin boogaloo grooves like "Come Candela" to psychedelic jazz renditions of pop hits like the Temptations' "Cloud Nine" to straight-up funk excursions like "Climax," Mongo at Montreux is relentlessly energetic music genetically engineered for dancing – most impressive of all is "Conversation in Drums," a virtual primer in Latin percussion.
Surprisingly, no hits surfaced when The Montreux Album was released. The great "For a Few Dollars More" is here, and along with the original "The Girl Can't Help It, " they should have had much more success than they did. This is a solidly played and recorded work…
Van Morrison has performed many times at the Montreux Festival from the early seventies to the present day. This two disc set brings together two of his finest performances from 1980 and 1974, featuring classic tracks such as "Wavelength", "Moondance", "Street Choir" and "Tupelo Honey". With carefully restored footage and sound newly mixed from the original masters, this DVD shows Van Morrison at his very best.
With one of the most successful tours of 2008 behind it—and the two-CD set Returns (Eagle Records, 2009) released to document the event—the reunion of fusion powerhouse Return to Forever—keyboardist Chick Corea, guitarist Al Di Meola, bassist Stanley Clarke and drummer Lenny White—appeared to be over. No surprise, however, that the group's triumphant performance at the Montreux Jazz Festival was also recorded, and now sees release a year after the tour began. Impeccably recorded with a multi-camera crew, and featuring a number of audio options, it's the perfect document of a tour that brought unexpected mass popularity back to fusion.

For official reasons the characters in Robert Muchamore's award-winning Cherub and Henderson's Boys series don't exist. The man behind these worldwide bestsellers certainly does, and here he talks to Graham Marks about writing, research and how he came to create the shadowy, sometimes savage and very real world of Charles Henderson…
Once again forced to flee from the wicked Octopus Emperor in their junkyard spaceship, the four Starstormers crashland on the planet of Moloch - otherwise known as the planet of the Evil Eye. They soon begin to wonder if this unwelcoming planet as its terrifying - yet somehow almost familiar - inhabitants, hold anything for them except death. Then strange voices reveal to Vawn that the hostile planet is linked with an early space experiment from Earth that went horribly wrong. The Starstormers may be able to help restore a balance between good and evil - but can Vawn convince her friends that she is not imagining things? And have they really arrived in time to destroy the evil of Moloch?
The Starstormers - Vawn, Ispex, Tsu and Makenzi - hurtle through space in Starstormer, the spacecraft they've built themselves, seeking their destination Epsilon Cool. Under constant threat from the evil Octopus Emperor, whose immense powers reach throughout the galaxy, their senses are alert to all dangers. In the depths of space they come across a huge abandoned spacecraft - a ghost ship with a chilling signal: Plague ship! Keep away! But the Starstormers desperately need spare parts for their own stricken craft. Despite the warning, they must venture aboard. But too late, they discover the ship's chilling secret - and they are destined for a terrifying journey towards the centre of the sun . . .

The unforgettable second novel in the acclaimed Covenant series from #1 New York Times bestselling Jennifer L. Armentrout. Includes a special bonus scene from Seth´s point of view.
Enter the world of Covenant...
For Alexandria, being destined to become some kind of supernatural electrical outlet isn´t exactly awesome - especially when her ´other half´ is everywhere she goes. Seth´s in her training room, outside her classes, and keeps showing up in her bedroom - so not cool. Their connection does have some benefits, like staving off her memories of the tragic showdown with her mother, but it has no effect on what Alex feels for the forbidden, pure-blooded Aiden.
When daimons infiltrate the Covenants and attack students, the gods send furies - creatures determined to eradicate any threat to the Covenants and to the gods... and that includes Alex. If that and hordes of aether-sucking monsters weren´t bad enough, a mysterious threat seems willing to do anything to neutralize Seth, even if that means forcing Alex into servitude... or killing her.

Emergency Flotilla
Emergency Flotilla
As an island community, we are susceptible to being completely cut off from resources should an event take out the Agate Pass bridge and suspend the ferry service. The City's Emergency Operations Plan allows for the use of an emergency flotilla to help with the following:
- transport critical supplies and essential staff on and off the island
- to assist with coastline surveys in the event of a mudslide or other natural disaster
- to assist with oil spill response
- to assist with any other emergent event requiring on-water support
The flotilla is an asset, managed by the Harbormaster and composed of a volunteer corps of citizens who utilize their private vessels to assist the City when activated.
It is important to note that the flotilla will not provide direct service to citizens during an emergent event. If you work off-island and wish to establish a private flotilla operation that would assist citizens, the Harbormaster can assist you with that process.
The City accepts all sizes of vessel and operators with any level of maritime expertise, including non-motorized options. Operators must be residents of Bainbridge Island. Vessels must be legally allowed to operate on Washington waters, seaworthy, and ready to be underway before accepting an assignment. Flotilla vessels moored wet, dry and off-island are eligible to participate in the flotilla providing the above criteria are met. The City will reimburse fuel costs for flotilla volunteers when activated and when participating in City-sponsored training. Operators must fill out a volunteer application and complete basic Incident Command System (ICS) 100 and 700 training in order to join the flotilla. If you are ready to join, please fill out this form.
When flotilla activation is deemed necessary, active members will be contacted by the Harbormaster or member of the City's incident response team. Members who are available and ready to deploy will be given assignments that are appropriate for their particular skill level and vessel capacity.
Emergency Flotilla - Access to Private Docks
The City is currently working to identify deep water docks on the island, to be used in conjunction with the emergency flotilla. If you have a private deep water dock, and are willing to make it available for emergency response vessels during an incident, please contact the Harbormaster.

Be prepared for a 3 hour dinner that you will never forget. We sat on the patio, watched little neighborhood kids tottle around, devoured amazing prosciutto and pasta, and drank perfectly matched Lambrusco. Don't miss this!
Our innkeeper down the street recommended the restaurant - and, especially, the delicious savarin as our first plate. This was followed by braised veal and a delicious warm chocolate torte. We enjoyed the local wine that was suggested to us.
The please is not easy to reach, simple and familiar. Food is good , local traditional food inspiration but proposes different things than the huge majority of other restaurant in the area. It worth to try travel few KM by car to try it!

If you've ever seen clips of Halo avatars discussing how they are stuck in a canyon with the enemy camp, or watched the South Park episode where the main characters play World of Warcraft, then you've experienced a genre of film called "machinima." The term "machinima" (machine + cinema) generally refers to animated filmmaking within a real-time virtual 3-D environment. To accomplish this, a "machinimator" (machinima + animator) pieces together video game footage to create an independent production that is distinct from the video game itself. Essentially, the machinimator is a digital puppet master who utilizes the environment, design, and characters of a video game to create a separate story. Machinimators normally record their productions in real time using a capture card (hardware) or video capture program (software). Additionally, many video games now provide an in-game video capture ability, which allows users to easily record their own game footage.

With so many new faces on the team's current roster, anticipation is high. The Nov. 8 game vs. the Clippers will be the first time that national audience gets a look at Damian Lillard. Watch for a Brandon Roy in the Rose Garden in 2012 again too.
Victoria BC's Steve Nash goes Hollywood-signs with Lakers
NWSB Insider and Northwest basketball blogger Steve Lee brings us his thoughts on his beloved LA Lakers getting his favorite NBA player Steve Nash, also a BC – Canada boy.

NBA Draft analysis: Gonzaga's Robert Sacre to the Lakers
NWSB insider Blair Thomas brings us his analysis on the Gonzaga Bulldogs newest addition to the NBA, and more specific, the Los Angeles Lakers family. British Columbia, and Gonzaga product Robert Sacre was taken with the 60th pick by the Lakers, in a move that could be more benefitial to the Lakers depending on what happens with Pau Gasol.

On the road again… Jamal Crawford trade rumors
NWSB Insider and Portland Trailblazers blogger Steve Lee chimes in with a some destinations he sees fit for Jamal Crawford's talents.

The Northwest sports record books are made to be broken

Tommy Ton
Famed and beloved street style photographer Tommy Ton left Condé Nast to launch his own eponymous site just in time to chronicle the SS16 collections, which begin next week.
And there's that skinny scarf, looking fabulous. Now I'm convinced!
Alissa September 3rd, 2015 8:36 AM -
Tres chic!
Regarding Tommy Ton breaking out on his own, I continue to be fascinated in what is going on with fashion as an industry and the related media associated with it. It would appear that the road is slipping right out from under the traditional bricks and mortar stores as well as the fashion magazines. I see ongoing adjustments in how they go to market, but can they keep up with what the market expects,?All the while the market is changing rapidly too! For me, personally, iI appreciate a culled offering from style experts I respect. I have no interest in wading through "pages" either in print or web format. But in the market as a whole, there is space for many business models. It would appear that Tommy Ton's Jack &Jill website is going for the Macy's business model. This is not for me.

Today was the New York City Marathon Lottery. So, I logged in at 12:00pm during my lunch break at work to watch the coverage on the NYCRR site. The coverage was pretty bad, but at least I got to see Meb and Al Roker. They were calling people out of the crowd there to win prizes, and it was kind of silly. Then, they blew a big horn (after a plug for UPS) and names started scrolling across the screen in New York, and on the screen where the video was playing.
Immediately, checking the Facebook site for the Marathon, people started complaining. I mean, are we supposed to sit through 30,000 names scrolling down the screen? I used my web programmer savvy to view the page source and find the URL for the feed that was feeding the scrolling names (don't worry if you don't know what that means), but they were putting the feed out there in chunks. Soon, it was 1:00pm and I still didn't know if I'd gotten in.
I left my desk and went to help a new employee, and when I returned, the scrolling list had magically converted to a search box. And... My name came up. I managed to get in through the 10% chance of getting in, and I did so on my FIRST TRY. YIKES. I proceeded to search FIVE times, and then I searched for every other person I could think of who entered the lottery. NONE of their names appeared. Just mine.
This morning, I'd been drafting a blog post in my head about Columbus and Wineglass, and my decisions on which one I'd pick after I'd found out my results for the lottery... I guess that post is of no use now.
If you remember, I had started to become less than excited about this race. I'm sure I will get more excited. I'm kind of shell shocked on the subject, because I really, truly did not expect to get in. Meanwhile, my brain for the last few hours has been like this:
So... YAY! I am excited. I am excited. It will be fine. I'm just stressing over losing my non-committal bliss.

Hooray! Congrats! I love NYC :) I was irritated about the scrolling names too so I just didn't watch. (hubs had entered the lottery). Surely there is a better way to do it? Anyway, congrats!

Water and Bath - inseparable concepts.Stones watered, are in the oven, it is done for "light" steam, and in the shower it is indispensable.To enjoy the bath, it must be present furnace and water tank.Accordingly, the bath tub must be made of high quality material.
- main characteristics of the tank
- settings bath tub
- type tub baths
- material for the bath tub
main characteristics of the tank
Before you make a tank for a bath, it is worth to staythe main question: what parameters to give preference to the bath tub;How to choose the type of tank: a built-in oven, tank pipe, remote;the material from which to make the tank: iron, steel or stainless steel?Let's define what should be the parameters when it is selected.
settings bath tub
If you can do everything with your hands, try to make the tank for a bath with his hands.First you need to think about what you install the tank in your steam room, which is the principle of the
Next you should decide how you will heat water - using the oven or by PETN, built-in tank.In order to determine that we are profitable - use the stove or use a tank with electric, you need to think about how many people will be attending both the bath.An essential factor is how much water is planned to be heated and, accordingly, allowed time heating to the desired temperature.
If the landlord will bathe alone, it is quite enough for a tank capacity of 50 liters.And to please a large group of friends or the whole family, you need a tank with a capacity of not less than 70 liters.It is important to pay attention to the thickness of the walls of the water tank for a bath, since this parameter will depend on how well will warm the tank, as well as how much longer it will retain heat.Also be aware that the greater the thickness of the tank wall, the higher its cost and weight.The thickness of the tank up to 50 liters should be 0.8-1 mm, and the thickness of the tank with a volume of more than 50 liters.It should be at least 1.5 millimeters.
must not forget what material would not have been made tank to do the required number of conclusions as well as entering the water.How would you not choose tank, buying it in the store, ordering in a workshop, or of making the own hands, you should doderzhivatsya parameters of which we spoke above.Then a visit to the bath for you will be a pleasure.
type tub baths
you need to know that the selection of the bath tank for hot water you need to compare the main parameters of three types: a conventional tank, which is built into the furnace, remote tank and the tank on the pipe.Even in the recent past, there was no doubt that the best option - it is a tank that is built into the oven.The lower part of the boiler is placed in the upper part of the furnace, it is one of the hottest parts, therefore accumulates a larger amount of heat to maintain the optimum temperature of the water and its heating.
If the tank is integrated, the flame directly comes into contact with its bottom, with the construction does not depend on how the output of smoke.In order to take the water tank built into the furnace, it is necessary to scoop water through the tank cap or through the valve integrated in the tank where the water falls by gravity.
If we equip the furnace heat exchangers, which are connected to the tank copper pipes, it allows us not to tie bath tank to the location of the furnace and enables set in a convenient location.According to the laws of physics, cold water to go down into the heat exchanger, and the water is heated to a certain temperature, it will be returned to the tank.One of the best options - setting a tank to wash in the bath, which usually occurs parsing heated water.
The important point is not only a fast heating of water, but also to maintain the desired temperature with minimal energy consumption.Therefore, many tanks bath placed on the tube which is intended to the fumes from the furnace.In the process of combustion smoke is released, the temperature reaches 500 degrees, so the water in the tank, which is located near the pipe is heated quickly.
The above suggests that if you place the device on the tube, you can choose a pot large volume because the heating element can be used during the entire length - from the bath-house stove to the ceiling.The water thus heated quickly and uniformly.This occurs because the tank is made elliptical, so it will be heated quite rapidly when the heating element is located in the middle of the tank.
scheme for the bath tub, which is located on the tube, has a number of advantages.The main one - the elimination of a situation such as carbon monoxide from entering the premises, because the tank is a fuse in case of leakage of smoke.
If you have decided on the type of tank now is to determine the fuel by which this will be heated oven.In our modern environment to replace the wood stove, electric heating elements come because it is a faster and cheaper way of heating as compared to the firewood.However, until now, many are of the view that the smell of burning wood is no substitute.
Well, if it really wanted to breathe the smell of burning wood, not to shell out for the furnace firewood bathhouse, after the steam room, you can sit in the lounge near the fireplace that burns wood.
material for the bath tub
In the good old days of commonly used cast iron bath tank.On heating the water took a long time and do a little wood, but the advantage is that for a long time hot water is stored, so have time to warm up the whole family The advantage of cast iron - that he is not afraid of high temperatures, corrosion resistant, and the major drawbackis quite a lot of weight.
great demand and popular for bath water tanks of stainless steel.First - do not need this capacity to protect from moisture.Second - stainless steel has a good coefficient of thermal conductivity, such water is rapidly heated tanks.The third - a very small coefficient of deformation under the influence of sharp fluctuations in temperature, compared with ferrous metals.
is considered one of the best stainless steel, which is used for the production of pottery.Such brands as steel 8-12X18H10 (304) and 08X17 (430) have the following properties: heat resistance, dimensional stability at high temperatures, corrosion resistance and hygienic.
If you purchased a stove with a tank at a very low price, it is necessary to be ready that soon you will have to bother such a question, how to get rid of the rust in the tank and the paint in the bath tub.Also, do not be surprised that you will not find at a low cost stainless steel tank.To avoid unpleasant sensations in contact with "rusty" water is necessary after draining the tank wipe dry.
save you can also enamelled tank from rust.A significant disadvantage, which is inherent in enamel tanks, is the possibility of chipping on the enamel.Metal cans are also exposed to corrosion, if they are not treated with a special heat-resistant paint.
Painted tank can not be used if it is incorporated into the furnace.Therefore, the most durable and practical bachek is stainless steel.Recent modern design tanks are often outriggers.These tanks have a very good aesthetic appearance and allow the pleasure of the healing hot steam and recovery of the organism as a whole.
In our modern time, the tank for a bath is a solid welded construction, which serves as the material for the thin stainless steel sheets are also made to supply water input and output in the form of ball valves for intake heated water from the tank.Very simple care of such tanks, it does not cause any particular difficulties for the hosts.Buck of chrome or stainless steel does not absorb light and helps to further illuminate the room, and also increases the brightness in reflection.
Finally, remember that the most important thing during the installation and operation of the tank - to observe the features of the installation, as described in the instructions for the bath tub.You must also adhere to all safety measures for self-production of the tank.If all this instruction manual tank will last for a long time, without causing trouble.

I ordered flowers for a friend's engagement living in Germany (from the UK). I placed the order and got a confirmation. Then, after a week of no "Thank You For the Flowers" from my friend, I got in touch and it turned out they were never delivered. When I emailed iFlorist, they said that they couldn't find the address. There's nothing wrong with the address and they never tried to get in touch with me to verify anything. Then, they REFUSED TO REFUND MY MONEY. So basically, they lied about their services, didn't actually do anything, then kept my money. Kinda sounds like THEFT to me.
