Leading: Telling or Asking?+ Return to Blog Home
January 29, 2016
I attended a leadership facilitation certification program today and learned another lesson about my leadership (as my innovation colleague, Jonathan Vehar, says "Oh, goody, another learning opportunity.")
We were members of three divisions of one organization that needed to work together to create a best solution in product development. Timing was too tight for much preparation or planning, so our (my) leadership behaviors came out.
Now, in doing this work professionally, I know a thing or two about how experiential or behavioral simulations often work. Their designs routinely force the participants into action quickly, and, if you take the task seriously, your behavior comes out. Luck would have it that I was handed a slip of paper that directed our group to do something across the three divisions. And I, given my preference for taking charge, took charge. I thought I did this with some measure of control, but the clock was ticking.
Suffice to say, that we, as an organization, did not perform best of class. I'll say it wasn't just me; there were 15 other people interacting and none of us really knew how to "make it work" until it was too late. What I did learn was how others felt about our collective work.
What struck me most clearly in the debrief was a comment from a colleague across the room that what he heard mostly from all the members was more telling than asking.
Time pressures, tensions, high stakes, how often do leaders default to the pressures and resort to directing, taking charge or telling without taking the time to check in with relevant stakeholders? I'm certainly guilty at times.
In the organizational development world we have a saying: Slow down to speed up. A similar saying is: Take time for learning. How often do we think we don't have time to seek alignment or commitment now, but somehow we always have time to deal with the stalls, the breakdowns and the lack of commitment later? It's like saying we don't have time to be influenced while we are supposed to be doing the influencing. And people notice this about us.
What are we missing?
I think we fall into the trap of being too smart for our own good (and for the good of our organizations). Sometimes we are so sure we know the exact right approach, the exact right goal, mission or vision, and are unaware of the impact we're making on others – those on whom we must rely in order to get the work done.
There's a story that says Albert Einstein was once asked: If you had 60 minutes to save the world, how would you approach the problem. Reportedly he said: "I would spend 55 minutes defining the problem and 5 minutes implementing the solution." I'm not saying that works for every situation, but it's probably applicable more often than we are using it.
Slow down to speed up. I need to pay more attention to this. Do you?
BE BETTER NOW – A Leadership Call to Action – Take a moment right now to put your thoughts into action
- What is ONE ASPECT of your professional life that might benefit from more or different attention in this subject area (enhancing the impact you make on others)?
- What is ONE THING you could do TODAY that would move you more deliberately in this direction? The Behavior or action I could take (verb); I will…
- HOW will you ensure you are developing – WITH WHOM can you share this goal or add to your brain trust to hold yourself accountable?
- MAKE a 10 minute calendar appointment right now to check in with yourself on this topic next week (better yet – for each following week). Keep it practical – write brief notes on two questions only:
- What clear steps did I take last week for my own development?
- What will I focus on executing next week?

Controlling the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) in HF Pipe and Tube Welding
Dr. Paul Scott
Vice President, Technology
Thermatool Corp
East Haven, CT 06512, USA
During the 60 year history of HF pipe and tube welding, those responsible for pipe and tube production have almost totally been guided by experimental knowledge and empiricism. Because one knows that "such and such" tube can be welded at "so many" feet per minute with "that many" kilowatts, it can be expected that another tube, close to this particular setup, can be run with a similar, logically scaled setup. And, if this setup doesn't perform properly, it is reasonable to assume that something "key to successful operation" has been lost. Successful, repeatable pipe and tube mill operation as we understand it today, involves having a good data base for previously produced, high quality pipe and tube, together with the discipline to reproduce a previously successful mill setup in a sufficiently short, viably productive change-over time.
A serious improvement to the pipe and tube manufacturing process would be the ability to predict and control at least some of the characteristics of the HF weld. This would help to more accurately extrapolate our empirical knowledge to new product requirements and to productivity improvements, such as achieving faster mill speeds. It would also make possible on-line production monitoring that could advise mill operators whether the current production run is meeting the customer's quality standard.
Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) Control is a revolutionary new development that enables these desirable improvements for HF welding. This new technology allows our empirical process knowledge (what we already know "works" and "doesn't work") to be combined with the results of mathematical physics so that standard mill products can be run in a more predictable process environment, and new mill products can be successfully run with shorter setup development times. This paper will present how HAZ Control Technology can improve the productivity of mill operation and the quality of the pipe and tube produced.
What is the HAZ and How Does It Relate to Weld Quality?
Metallurgists define the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) as "the area of base metal which has had its microstructure and properties altered by welding. The heat from the welding process and subsequent re-cooling causes this change in the area surrounding the weld."۱ Differences in the microstructure of the HF seam weld and parent material determine how the results of Rockwell hardness or Charpy toughness testing, for example, will differ when these regions are subjected to material property measurements. The weld vee time-temperature distribution causes transformation of the metal's microstructure and affects the "grain" size of the weld structure. Both have significant influence on material test results.
The time-temperature transformation of the metal's microstructure leaves a signature that is visible to the human eye. It can be seen by looking at a cut and polished weld specimen under a microscope. This visible change in microstructure is the Heat Affected Zone and its geometry is the direct consequence of the weld's heating profile. An example of a weld from an API line pipe sample is shown in Figure 1.
The metallurgist can often predict the changes in microstructure knowing the time-temperature history of the metallic specimen. For example, the microstructure of steels with different chemistries can be predicted from Time-Temperature Graphs. These curves can be produced by computer programs such as SteCal2. They show the time at temperature necessary to form the Ferrite, Pearlite, Martensite, etc. structures observable in the micrograph. Because of the rapid formation of the HF seam weld, the HAZ is created by the spatial temperature distribution at the weld vee apex, where material elements have reached their highest temperature, which determines the HAZ.
The tube mill setup factors that influence the HAZ include:
• The tube material, diameter and wall thickness.
• The mill speed and welder's power level.
• Whether the weld is made by the induction or contact process, and the vee length of the weld area setup.
• The strip edge geometry when it passes through the weld area.
• The design of the weld box and the forge pressure it applies to the strip edges at the weld point.
While many mill setup parameters such as tube diameter, wall thickness and tube material are pre-established before the mill production run, there generally is some discretion over other setup parameters, such as weld power, welding frequency, vee length and mill speed. Through judicious selection of these "flexible" parameters, a weld HAZ, having the best material properties can be achieved for the pipe or tube's end application.
It is important to understand that there is no "optimum Heat Affected Zone (HAZ)". Having studied weld HAZs from a number of premium pipe and tube products, the author has concluded that the best HAZ weld depends of the final application for the pipe or tube. For example, it is easy to establish that manufacturers of API, Oil Country Goods Products strive for much wider and deeper HAZs than manufacturers of thin wall, coated tubes. Knowledge of what HAZ characteristics are necessary for the pipe or tube's end application will always be necessary to produce the most cost effective pipe or tube with the highest quality.
What Affects The Characteristics of the HF Weld HAZ?
So far, we have determined that many important material properties of the HF weld can be inferred from its Heat Affected Zone (HAZ), and that the HAZ results from the time-temperature changes that occur in the material while welding. Therefore, in order to study the characteristics of the HAZ, we need to know how the tube mill's setup affects the time-temperature profile in the vee edge.
In the mid 1990's several scientific papers were published, establishing for the first time, a mathematical basis for HF welding theory. One of the most significant results was the derivation of a mathematical theory3 that accurately predicts the relationship between mill speed and weld power as a function of vee length, the strip's material properties, and welding frequency. The theory has been successfully applied to determining speed-power relationships for HF welders, and has been used for several years at Thermatool Corp for weld rate prediction. It has been shown to predict weld power over a wide range of product sizes and mill speeds with reasonable accuracy.
The theory states that the temperature distribution in the weld vee is primarily due to the physical combination of the HF electrical current distribution which causes the vee to heat, and thermal conduction which determines how deeply this heat penetrates into the vee edge. The HF current distribution is characterized by the Electrical Reference Depth, and is a function of welding frequency. The thermal conduction process is characterized by the Thermal Reference Depth, and is a function of vee length and mill speed.
In practical HF pipe and tube welding situations:
- The Electrical Reference Depth can be larger than the Thermal Reference Depth. This circumstance results in one kind of temperature distribution.
- The Thermal Reference Depth can be larger than the Electrical Reference Depth. This circumstance results in a second kind of temperature distribution.
- Both the Electrical and Thermal Reference Depths can be of the same size. This results in a transitional temperature distribution.
This topic is discussed more fully in the reference cited below.
To summarize, the time-temperature profile in the weld vee creates the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ). The combined effects of HF electrical heating (described by Electrical Reference Depth) and diffusion of this heat into the vee edge by thermal conduction (Thermal Reference Depth) causes this temperature distribution. If the temperature distribution in the vee edge can be predicted from the Electrical and Thermal Reference Depths, and if these Reference Depths can be calculated from the principal mill setup parameters (tube diameter, wall thickness, weld power, welding frequency, vee length, and tube material properties), then a method can be crafted for predicting and controlling the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) of an HF welded pipe or tube.
Is it Possible to Predict the HF Weld HAZ?
In 1995, when mathematical results were first derived for determining the HF welding speed–power relationship, the author's major disappointment was the inability to invert the Laplace Transform of weld vee temperature. Had this been accomplished, the result would have given the complete description of vee temperature. Instead, a mathematical approximation had to be made and only the vee apex temperature could be obtained.
Recently, a mathematical theorem was uncovered that allowed the complete inversion of this Laplace Transform. The new result gives a mathematical description of the complete weld vee temperature distribution. For the purpose of determining weld HAZ characteristics, the new equation can be evaluated at the vee apex. The results needed for HAZ prediction are given below:
۱٫ The first result is a mathematical description for the shape of the temperature distribution that results in the weld's Heat Affected Zone (HAZ):
- With the variable, x, defined as the distance measured from the vee apex into the vee edge (See Figure 2), the non-dimensional variables, γπλx4= and ξγπη۴= are all that is needed to evaluate the equation in Result 1. The first number, λ, is the distance into the vee edge starting at its apex in units related to the Thermal Reference Depth, γ. The second number, η, is the size of the Thermal Reference Depth relative to the size of the Electrical Reference Depth, ξ.
- The Thermal and Electrical Reference Depths can be calculated from the thermal and electrical properties of tube material, and principal mill setup parameters – vee length, mill speed and welding frequency:
- The second result provides the absolute reference value for the temperature distribution given in Result 1:
- Finally, when physically characterizing a weld, it is sometimes more useful to solve the problem in terms of volumetric stored energy rather than temperature. In the theory of physics, temperature is the measure of the energy stored in a volume of material, so the two quantities really describe the same phenomena. In the linear theory, volumetric stored energy and temperature are related by the material's heat capacity and mass density. As there is no energy stored in a material (the stored energy is zero) when its temperature is at absolute zero, the relationship is given by:
The advantage of using volumetric stored energy in welding problems is that it better accounts for the Heat of Fusion in the material. When an element of material is raised to its melting point, it stays at this temperature while continuing to absorb the energy needed to perform the phase change from solid to liquid. Likewise, if an element is cooled from the melting state, this gained energy must leave the element while it completely returns to the solid phase, before its temperature will begin to drop. Weld zones often experience temperatures that bring them into the solid-liquid phase change region. When the tube material is at or near the melting temperature, volumetric stored energy is the preferred description because it is a monotonically increasing, continuous function. The temperature in this region is single valued, and thus can be mathematically ambiguous. For the equation in Result 2, we can convert temperature, when it is below the tube material's melting point, to stored energy per unit volume using:
Summarizing this section, the equation given in Result 1 accomplishes our fundamental objective in that it provides the ability to predict HAZ shape. Further, it shows that the shape of the HAZ can be described in terms of the Electrical and Thermal Reference Depths. Thus, the temperature distribution that creates the HAZ can be determined from basic mill setup parameters and the tube material's properties. Result 5 further extends this theory by applying the concept of volumetric stored energy. This gives a more useful description of the weld vee's properties, when the pipe or tube material is near its melting point.
Can the Weld HAZ be Controlled?
If it is possible to predict the basic features of the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ), then it should be possible to control it. Work is currently underway to take the theory put forth in this paper and develop an open-loop HAZ monitoring and control system. If this should prove successful, some day closed-loop control of the weld HAZ may be possible.
The open-loop control concept is based on identifying the "best" HAZ for a particular pipe or tube application, and then measuring "how far away" the HAZ being produced by the tube mill is from this point. As previously pointed out, there is no "Optimum HAZ" so this needs to be determined through empirical study, and "trial and error". Values representing the actual HAZ during pipe or tube production can be calculated while the tube mill is in operation. This process uses data provided by the tube mill operator for the tube diameter, wall thickness and vee length, and data obtained in "real time" from the HF welder for weld power, welding frequency and mill speed. A control panel that displays the input data for an open-loop HAZ Control is shown in Figure 3.
The HAZ Control can be used to monitor production. The quantities above are all that is needed to evaluate the equations given in Results 1 and 5. Both the "best" HAZ and the HAZ from the actual production run are characterized by a shape or "HAZ Width" that is calculated from Result 1, and volumetric energy level or "Heat" determined from Result 5. These values are displayed to the operator as a two dimensional graph, using the coordinates of "HAZ Width" for the x-axis and "Heat" for the y-axis. The "HAZ Width and "Heat" for the given product's "best" HAZ are used to establish the center of the operator's display graph, and portrayed on this graph as a "target" (See Figure 4). A "cursor" is then used to indicate the position on the same graph of the actual HAZ values obtained while the tube mill is in production. The operator then watches the graph and adjusts the welder's power and welding frequency so that the "cursor"
is over the "target", in the center of the graph. The inability of the operator to make acceptable pipe or tube and keep the "cursor" in the center of the "target" is an indication that an important mill parameter is no longer at its correct setting. This should signal the mill operator to investigate the cause of the problem. "Best" HAZ data that has proven to produce high quality pipe and tube with the HAZ Control can be stored in a library for recall at a later date. An operator screen for doing this is shown in Figure 5.
HAZ Control can also be used to find the best weld area setup for a new pipe or tube product, especially if "best" HAZ data is available from a similar product. The "best" HAZ data for a pipe or tube that is dimensionally close to the new product is loaded into the HAZ Control. The controller's dimensional data is then adjusted to agree with that for the new product. If this data is not available, the HAZ Control can make its "best guess" as to these starting values. This fixes the starting position of the "target" for the new product. The weld power, welding frequency, vee length and mill speed are then adjusted while the tube mill is in operation to bring the "cursor" over the "target". This has the effect of mapping the "best" HAZ from a known product or a "best guess" mill setup to a setup for the new product.
HAZ Control is an exciting "new frontier" for pipe and tube process development and many advanced products should be expected as this technology matures.
Historically, pipe and tube manufacturing has been driven by empirical knowledge and "cut and try" development. New process control methods, such as Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) Control, enable significant improvements for HF welding. This new technology allows our empirical process knowledge (what we already know "works" and "doesn't work") to be combined with the results of mathematical physics so that standard mill products can be run in a more predictable process environment, and new mill products can be successfully run with shorter mill setup development times.

Dear National Trust
Dear NT,
Handbook help please
We have recently been soft-hearted/daft enough to rescue/rehome a gentle young lurcher, who - as you can see - is a delight when asleep . . . and I have renewed my lapsed membership so we can take advantage of wonderful walks in Cumbria and further afield.
Unfortunately, Millie is not always a delight when awake and clearly does not yet appreciate the benefits of NT membership, this morning showing a complete disregard for the recently received handbook.
I'm really sorry - but please can I have a replacement which I promise to take much better care of and keep out of her way!
Many thanks in advance

What Millie actually has, is a hunger for attention - whenever she makes off with something she should not, it is because she wasn't getting the attention she wanted/needed. So I suppose it is our fault {{snigger}}
oh goodness, it seems the gorgeous girl needed a little snack- i sympathize because the slightly spoiled diva who rules my every moment has the occasional craving for books/paper/credit cards/etc and has never failed to locate and demolish such items- (getting sent to 'the naughty corner' has so far failed to curtail this behavior and after YEARS of trying I have learned that since I love her I accept lapses)- sigh ...ReplyDelete

Becoming a movie producer can be a very rewarding and exciting career choice. If you enjoy being a leader in the movie and film industry, traveling, meeting people, and more, this may be the right career opportunity for you.
However, a movie producer's job is not always so easy going, there are times when this job can become quite hectic, stressful, and very demanding as there will be deadlines to meet within short time frames, important decisions to make that can be very daunting when pressure is put on you for answers, and multiple failures since some movies and films will flop. The question is, will you be able to handle all this.
If you can withstand living a partly hectic, stressful life with some failures, combined with glamour, glitz, and success, then you are about to embark on a very rewarding career.
What Do Movie Producers do?
Movie producers are the guys and girls behind the scenes responsible for making everything run smoothly during production. They are also responsible for making all the selections and important decisions pertaining to the film. In addition, it is the producers' job to secure financing for movie projects. This does not mean that they must put up their own money — although some do — it means they must find investors willing to foot the bill and see a return when and if the film is successful.
Here is the rundown, when a movie is in the makes; it is the producers' job to:
- Locate, distribute, and budget, finances
- Write scripts or evaluate and choose which will be best to use in the film
- Hire and direct starring actors, a director, crew members, technical staff, and others
- Quality control, assemble and edit footage
- Distribution of the final outcome
Check out this movie producer profile to learn more
Education and Other Requirements in Becoming a Producer
While being a producer can be great for some, not everyone is cut out for this role as you must possess important qualities, characteristics, skillsets, and education to be successful in the movie industry.
Prospective movie producers need to have a strong knowledge of filmmaking and the movie industry, the ability to remain calm under pressure, a keen eye for detail, and critical thinking, communications, writing, and time management skills as well as be a team leader, very creative, business-oriented, headstrong, able to travel, work long hours in different settings, meet or beat deadlines, and more.
Finally, you should have at least a bachelor's degree in journalism, film, communication, acting, or a related field with 1 to 5 years of industry experience.
Earnings Potential
The salary for movie producers can be quite lucrative for some, especially when hit movies are concerned. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual salary for movie and film producers in 2018 was $71,680 where Payscale reports an annual wage of $85,988 for producers in Los Angeles and $103,434 for the producers in New York.

"New Europe going strong": article from Milano Finanza
Two years ago the banks of Central and Eastern Europe were seen as an unknown for UniCredit. Now they account for over 90% of the Group's profit. And they are a bridge to the East for 3 thousand Italian companies.
Two years ago, when Federico Ghizzoni took over the reins at UniCredit, the countries of Central and Eastern Europe appeared to be the Group's Achilles' heel. The crisis in 2008-2009 had had a severe impact on some of the economies in the region (Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria and the Baltic countries in particular) where UniCredit, as a result of the vast network of established under Alessandro Profumo, was (and still is) heavily exposed. Analysts feared that the economic slowdown would soon also have an impact on the Bank's finances. Only a few weeks before Ghizzoni was appointed to head the Bank, Fitch had lowered UniCredit's rating due to its "growing vulnerability to potential severe strains in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and the Community of Independent States (CIS)". Some had even gone as far as saying that, since he had been assuming growing responsibility for years over the countries of the New Europe, Ghizzoni had been chosen to the head the Group in order to sort out the eastern provinces of the empire. However, the CEO was very clear on this issue at the time: "The East is not a problem". And the results, at least up to now, are bearing him out. The CEE Division, which has been headed since December 2010 by Gianni Franco Papa, has not only ended the last two years with solid and steadily growing profits, but it is also helping to sustain the results of the Group (which is still in the midst of the reorganisation of its Italian operations) that have been affected by the deterioration of the macro economic environment in Italy, and more generally by the general slowdown in banking business in the mature markets in Western Europe. In the first nine months of 2012 the CEE Division, despite only accounting for 19% of revenues for the entire Group, contributed € 1.4 billion to UniCredit's profit, around 70% of the total. A proportion that rises to 92% if we also take into account the results of Pekao and UniCredit's Polish operations, which are not part of the CEE Division, but are one of the Group's four core markets together with Italy, Germany and Austria.
However, the successes achieved by the Bank to date in the markets of the New Europe have not created any tensions or jealousies between the various members of the Group. On the contrary, according to Papa, who in addition to heading the CEE Division is also deputy chairman of Bank Austria, which heads up the Eastern European Network, the strong results are attributable to membership of a pan-European group like UniCredit, which allows the Group's international banks to offer their customers the products, expertise and professional services of the Parent. Resources that have been made available not only to the local customers of the 18 banks of UniCredit's Central and Eastern European Network, but also to Italian companies that have established export markets or set up production facilities in those countries. "A banking group like UniCredit, with a strong, widespread presence in the markets of Central and Eastern Europe, is an important asset for the Italian economy", explained Papa "because the Group can help Italian companies that already have a presence in or want to enter those markets. Currently the banks of UniCredit's CEE Division have around 3 thousand accounts held by Italian companies operating in numerous different sectors to which we are able to offer a full range of products: from commercial to investment banking, to cash management, through to leasing and factoring". And demand from Italian companies for assistance for their businesses in those markets is growing steadily, as reflected by the 450 new operations and relationships set up there by UniCredit in the last two years. Understandable, considering that, while Western Europe and Italy in particular are suffering from the impacts of the sovereign debt crisis on the real economy, there are markets in the region growing at a rate of 4-5% per year.
In Russia, for example, where UniCredit has a network of 105 branches under the UniCredit Bank brand and is present in all the administrative regions of the Russian Federation, there are around 350 Italian companies operating, of which around 250 are UniCredit customers, with 70 managed directly by the Moscow International Desk and the remainder split between large, mid-corporate and retail.
But Russia is not the only country driving UniCredit's growth in the East, which is also being eyed by the most dynamic Italian companies. In Turkey, for example, where UniCredit operates in a joint venture with the Koc family, under the Yapi Kredi name, and has a network of around 1,000 branches, the Group, which ended the first nine months with a net profit of € 285 million, has achieved the milestone of € 6.8 million customers. These customers include a large number of Italian companies, primarily operating in the infrastructure sector (which is in strong demand in this Eurasian country), but also in other manufacturing sectors.

Ever since my recent chickpea salad post I've been thinking about making more. I am still amazed at how delicious mashed chickpeas are. I like chickpeas but have never been a huge fan of eating them as the main component of my meal. That is until now. Seriously chickpea salad is so good! Josh shares in my excitement too, being just as surprised at how yummy these salads can be.
Here I opted to make a mediterranean styled salad. I always have typical Mediterranean ingredients on hand – capers, kalamata olives, and sun dried tomatoes. I love the salty flavor of capers and olives. As a child I would eat spoonfuls of capers. I have vivid memories of using a small espresso spoon, since it would fit in the narrow jar, eating bite after bite. For sun dried tomatoes I prefer to use oil packed. They are softer in texture and add a bit of olive oil to my recipes. Along with these three ingredients I used a bit of fresh lemon juice to add some acid and a bit of vegenaise for an extra touch of richness. You can easily omit the vegenaise though. And lastly some crumbled sheep's milk feta cheese. I let the salad marinate in the fridge for a few hours before serving over a bed of greens, pea shoots, cucumber, and tomato. This is a perfect summer salad! Light with plenty of protein and fiber.
Mediterranean Chickpea Salad
- 15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 2 tablespoons capers, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons kalamata olives, roughly chopped
- 4 oil packed sun dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1 tablespoon vegenaise
- 2 oz feta
- s&p
- Place chickpeas in a bowl and smash using a potato masher until they have a flaky consistency. You could use a food processor for this too, just be conscious not to puree.
- Mix all ingredients, season with s&p, and chill until serving. If desired use olive oil in place of the vegenaise, I was going for a richer flavor and creamy texture.

Want to cut your energy costs or your energy usage?
Start your journey to energy efficiency with IU Energy, the UK's top energy consultancy.

Considering gas boiler replacement? In the first place, if a green energy option isn't right for you, we can help you choose the right gas condensing boiler for your need. By and large, the type of boiler you'll want for a public swimming pool is very different from a guest house or cafe.
It's important to realise that all new gas boilers are condensing, even domestic combi boilers. This technology makes better use of the heat generated from fuels such as gas or oil.
Gas condensing boilers are highly efficient and work by extracting heat from exhaust gases. They reuse it and indeed, this makes them up to 25% more efficient than non-condensing boilers. Your new boiler could reach up to 99% efficiency.
If you also consider taking a green gas or mixed green gas tariff, then you'll also be reducing your production of greenhouse gases.
They are also considered a lot safer than older systems.
Certainly, Landlords, or those responsible for managing student accommodation, have serious legal obligations to ensure that gas boilers are safe. If they aren't, replacement is necessary. In fact, safety obligations apply to anyone responsible for gas boilers.
On the other hand, if you want to reduce your energy costs and reduce your emissions, now is a good time to think about alternatives to polluting natural gas.
Furthermore, with not only national net-zero carbon legislation in play but also many Councils pledging to be carbon net zero by 2030, you should above all consider a different approach to your boiler replacement.
Specifically, in 2019, 270 councils had already declared a climate emergency.
To put it another way, could you find room outside for an Air Source Heat Pump or Ground Source Heat Pump? If not, should you consider a green gas tariff or mixed green gas tariff?
How about a biomass boiler? In fact, both these options are particularly good if you're not on mains gas. In commercial applications, Heat Pumps and Biomass boilers will both give you 20 years of income from the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI).
As an illustration as to why you should consider alternatives to gas boilers, there's Energiesprong / ZEBCat (Zero Energy Buildings Catalyst). This is the net-zero carbon model from the Netherlands, which is being applied to social housing stock by councils. They are ditching gas boilers in favour of newer, energy-efficient and renewable technology. In fact, gas is completely out, altogether.
In reality, if you invest in a fossil-fuel technology now, you could find yourself replacing it years ahead of time. To clarify, Councils are replacing gas boilers in their own housing stock. How soon before they make your business do the same to meet the UK's legal climate obligations?
If you're in two minds, IU Energy can help you understand the options and help you with net zero carbon transition. You may also end up benefiting from that 20-year government renewable incentive funding we referenced, not to mention the enhanced capital allowances (ECA) which may be available. This can really add up and may improve your profits.
However you decide, IU Energy is qualified and highly experienced in surveying and installing all types of commercial gas condensing boilers. Equally, we are especially good at energy-efficient and renewable technology installation. We are trusted by clients in –
You can download a gas boiler replacement Technology Information Sheet here.
Below are some of our case studies for projects we have conducted using efficient gas boiler replacement, followed by FAQs.
All modern boilers use condensing technology.
A combi-boiler is a specific type of heating system. It combines water heating with central heating in one unit and takes up much less space than a traditional boiler installation. A combi-boiler works by heating water directly from the mains outlet (as opposed to feeding in from a water tank). It also means that your water is always delivered with mains pressure.
This technology is only suitable where the demand for hot water is low.
'Condensing' boilers use technology that improves the efficiency of modern boiler systems. It collects the heat or vapour from flue gases and reuses/recycles it, something which makes some condensing boilers as much as 25% more efficient than non-condensing boilers, reaching up to 99% efficiency. It is increasingly fitted in combi boilers.
Most commercial applications benefit from a full system boiler where water is stored in a tank. System boilers provide space heating directly, whilst also supplying hot water to a storage cylinder. They have most of the individual components of a heat and hot water system built into the boiler unit, so whilst they do require a separate cylinder, unlike a conventional boiler they don't also require a cold-water tank.
Hot water is pumped through the radiators and the hot water cylinder, delivering a faster response, which could be more economical and mean lower running costs than a conventional boiler.
We recommend a service package which includes annual servicing. This is necessary for both reliability and the safety of the plant.
If you're in Food, Healthcare, Beverages, Paper, Packaging, Pharmaceutical, Petrochemical, Feed Mills, Agriculture, Laundries or Textiles, please contact us for a more detailed conversation as your system will necessarily require more planning. 01252 26 26 26
The general lifespan of a boiler is around 10 to 15 years. While this is an average, your boiler may last longer if you take good care of it.
You should decide to replace your boiler when repairs become too expensive or start mounting up. Opting for a new boiler at this point should save you money in the long run.
To find boilers that are economical, look for their ENERGY STAR rating. A well rated boiler should run very efficiently, whereas a poorly rated model may be more cost effective to replace in the long run.
You should find that all modern boilers are more economical when compared to older models.

Why Can't A Singer Sing A Cover? I'm Stumped!
Craig York replied to Craig York's topic in General DiscussionsI agree and disagree. If I hire you to demo a song and tell you I want a Al Green sound then that is what I expect. If you cant do it, then respectfully say you cant do it or wont do it. Now if we are writing a song together and its YOUR song, then by all means, do your thing and make it your own. It depends on the situation.
Why Can't A Singer Sing A Cover? I'm Stumped!
Craig York replied to Craig York's topic in General DiscussionsThanks for all of the replies. I have recorded a lot of artist and I have never seen anything like this before. I wish I could post the session - but due to legal reasons I cant. Not only was his timing off, he repeatedly added words that were not on the lyric sheet. It was like he had a stuttering problem. If any of you are golfers - it was like watching Charles Barkley's swing ...LOL He had over 2 weeks to learn the verse/song so he had more than enough time to learn it. He had the track and scratch vocals. I ended up getting someone else to do the song. They came in, heard it one time and killed it! We were done in a whopping 30 minutes. I spoke to the young man today and he was very apologetic. He said he was really nervous. He also said he has a problem singing other peoples songs (I wish he would have told me that before hand). I am still going to work with him because he has potential. Thanks again for all the replies. I have been reading through the forum and it looks like it has a lot of useful information. And regarding the Avatar/Profile Pic - funny, very funny! Take care and thanks again.
Why Can't A Singer Sing A Cover? I'm Stumped!
Craig York posted a topic in General DiscussionsHi, I am working with a pretty talented young man that can sing reasonably well, I mean, he can sing his own songs well. We were in the studio over the weekend working on a song he did not write and it was one of the worst sessions I have ever had. His tempo was off, pitch was off, he was a totally different person than I worked with before. After several agonizing hours I decided to take a break. We was embarrassed and I was frustrated. I left the track playing in the back ground and he started singing one of his songs. It was perfect. Thinking he found his mojo I immediately jump back on the boards and told him to sing the verse to the other song ............ terrible! I know he wasn't faking it because there was too much money at stake. But he just couldn't get it. I have never seen anything like this before. I even had him try singing one sentence at a time hoping I could piece something together, and still nothing. Has anyone ever experienced this? If so, How did you correct it? At the end of the session I had him sing the song he wrote and it was incredible. The songs weren't that much different from each other. When he left I was stumped! Any suggestions?

Dental for Disabled sign now
To better enable people with disabilities, health benefits were established through medicaid because of the limited income a disabled person is allowed.
The webster-britannica dictionary defines health as : the condition of being sound in body, mind, or spirit; especially : freedom from physical disease or pain b : the general condition of the body.
This definition would include gum disease, cavities that could lead to, and anything relating to the oral fixation of a persons hygiene.
The Americans with Disabilities Act promotes training and teaching disabled people how to be independant and self-sufficient to their greatest ability, but in doing so, a huge gap was overlooked by another health profession that also bears the same initials of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the ADA, or better known as American Dental Association.
A typical office visit to your local dentist will cost you about 178.00 depending on your oral health. Disabled americans have no such affordability, or insurance that would help in paying that amount.
For that reason I am asking for your signature on this ballot that I will personally send to the governor of South Carolina.
If you, or a family member has a disability, or has a friend with a disability, please send this petition to them so that we may fill this gap that was conveniently overlooked by your local dentist.
To dispel your thoughts of a local health center providing access, my research has shown me that useless referrals will be made, and the result will be denied unless you have the money or insurance to pay your way in. If you have a life threatening disease, you may qualify, but to who's benefit ?
The only way to develop a condition of being sound in body, mind, or spirit is through your mouth !
From what you eat, to how you brush your teeth. Your livelihood starts up under your nose. Thank you for signing this important petetion.

There are 2 ways to read these, the first is each 4 lines is it own separate mini poem or you can read it as one giant poem that means....something or other.
The inukshuk stands between us
16 stones and an ancient legend
supposed to tell me where to go
but all it wants to do
is keep me away.
I was led to the alter
for the worship of water
Rushing around over the rocks
twisting my head and losing the plots
Urban sprawl
a dead motif
too many crows for a murder
might as well be 10 000 feet deep.
I was lead to the water
but was not forced to drink
the priests gulp it down
and piss out forgiveness

By Eric Wearne
In Teacher in America, Jacques Barzun writes that, "In theory, the printed book should have technologically annihilated the teacher, for the original 'lecture' was a reading from a costly manuscript to students who could not afford it." Clearly, that has not been the case. Barzun was talking about new educational technologies (decades ago), and while teachers are not likely to be "annihilated" by new technology in the near future, schooling will likely look very different, and very soon.
In his 2011 book Getting Smart, venture capitalist and a former school superintendent Tom Vander Ark makes a case for changing our views of schooling to keep pace with new technologies. He argues for a blend of online and classroom learning, and provides vignettes of schools, companies, and other organizations that are currently working on this transition.
Throughout the book, Vander Ark makes predictions about what various aspects of U.S. education will look like in five and ten years. For example:
He believes that in five years:
• "The Common Core State Standards and Race to the Top assessments will frame this decade of U.S. education the way NLCB did in the 2000s."
• "All U.S. students will have access to online courses for AP, high-level STEM courses, and any foreign language."
• "Half of states and districts will stop buying print textbooks and will shift to customizable digital texts and open education resources."
•"Several states will use performance contracting, charter schools being an example today, to authorize and manage the relationship with all schools and education providers."
•"Fifty of the largest one hundred districts will, on a regular basis, close struggling schools and replace them with blended charter or contract schools, expand access to online courses, and embrace school networks."
•"Budget woes will cause hundreds of districts and most charter networks to move to blended models, shifting to online instruction for a portion of the day to boost learning and operating productivity."
•"Those learning at home through homeschooling and virtual charter schools will double to six million students, or about 10 percent of all students."
Some of these are stronger bets than others. Many, such as states choosing to use performance contracts, the ability to drop textbooks for electronic resources, or closing struggling schools, are possible now. No group of states or districts wants to be the first to make such big changes, but it is very conceivable that at least some of these could all come to pass within five years.
He may be on less firm ground regarding his hopes for the Common Core Standards and Race to the Top – if anything, a proliferation in online choice at the course level, which Vander Ark advocates, could very arguably lead to pressure for less common standards, not more. And while the Race to the Top assessments may prove to be a step forward, the program itself is getting bogged down as states and systems are working with a willing U.S. DOE to water down the promises they made in their applications. And, unfortunately, he uses federal support for green energy as an example of the right way to do public-private investment partnerships (though thankfully he doesn't mention Solyndra).
Those are relatively minor missteps. The book on the whole is on target, and is in practice useful for several audiences. Vander Ark has sections on what practical steps aspiring educators, nonprofit leaders, state policymakers, and philanthropic investors can do to enhance online learning. He is spot on when he talks about technology as an "equalizer." In a huge country like the U.S., technology is probably the only way to scale up our need for excellent teachers to the level required.
And his predictions get better as he looks farther out in time. He thinks that in ten years:
•"Most U.S. students will attend a blended school where students report to a physical space and most learning happens online."
•"With a decade of data, second-generation recommendation engines will drive tutoring applications that are more effective than one-on-one sessions with a live tutor."
•"Despite generally flat funding for education, the U.S. K-12 instructional materials and related technologies market will grow by more than 50 percent – an explosion of digital services will offset the decline of print."
•"More than $10 billion in school facilities will be sold for redevelopment because major remodels of antiquated buildings will become cost prohibitive."
•"There will be several DIY high school options with an engaging merit badge sequence that will allow students to take ownership of and direct their own learning – with lots of teacher support, but when, where, and how students need it."
I think these are all very likely to be the case in ten years. Vander Ark mentions higher student achievement possibilities, but he barely touches on some of the corollaries that would follow – the potential for massively higher pay (and social status) for really excellent teachers; the savings states would realize through efficiency; and, maybe most importantly: all of the other benefits we can't predict, but which always follow major breakthroughs.

; trad.]
Douglas Morling sang The Foggy Dew in a recording made by A.L. Lloyd for the BBC at The Eel's Foot in 1938/39. In was included in 2000 on the Veteran CD of traditional singing & music from The Eel's Foot, Good Order! Ladies and Gentlemen Please.
Luther Hills with Mark Fuller sang The Foggy Dew in a recording made by Peter Kennedy in Luther's smithy at East Denn, Sussex, 2 December 1952. It was included in 2012 on the Topic anthology of songs by Southern English traditional singers, You Never Heard So Sweet (The Voice of the People Series Volume 21).
Phil Hammond of Holt, Norfolk, sang The Foggy Dew in a recording made by Peter Kennedy for the BBC on 3 November 1952. It was published on the anthology Songs of Seduction (The Folk Songs of Britain Vol. 2, Caedmon 1961; 12T158, 1968).
Harry Cox sang The Foggy Dew in a recording made by Peter Kennedy in Catfield, Norfolk in October 1953 on the 1955 HMV album Folk Song Today, in 1965 on Cox's eponymous EFDSS album Harry Cox, and in 2000 on his Rounder anthology What Will Become of England?. Another recording made by Peter Kennedy at The Windmill, Sutton, Norfolk was released in 1960 on the EMI/HMV EP The Barley Mow: Songs from the Village Inn.
Patrick Galvin sang The Foggy Dew in 1956 on his Topic 8" LP Irish Songs of Resistance Part 2.
A.L. Lloyd sang The Foggy Dew in 1956 on his Riverside album English Drinking Songs and on his Tradition album The Foggy Dew and Other Traditional English Love Songs, on the 1961 Topic reissue EP of English drinking songs, All for Me Grog, and on his Fellside anthology Classic A.L. Lloyd. He commented in the first album's sleeve notes:
This true-life story is known in many forms. Sometimes the girl is frightened by a ghost: the "bugaboo". Sometimes she seems disturbed by the weather: the "foggy dew". Some say the foggy dew is a virginity symbol; others say the words are there by accident or corruption, and all the girl was pretending to be frightened of was ghosts. Whatever the case, she creeps to the roving bachelor for comfort, and gets what she came for. The Irish have it as a sentimental piece of blarney, the Scots as a brief bawdy guffaw; students have coarsened the song, and Benjamin Britten has refined it. The East Anglian country-folk have it straightest, and sing it without a laugh or a tear or a nudge in the ribs, just as it happened. The Foggy Dew is known all over Britain, yet rarely seen in its full form in print, which is odd, for the song is eminently decent in its best traditional forms. It's not a drinking song, but it's often sung in drinking places.
Shirley Collins recorded The Foggy Dew twice in 1958/59. The first version was published in 1960 on False True Lovers and in 2004 on her anthology Classic Collection; the other is the title track of her 1959/60 Collector EP The Foggy Dew and was also included in 2002 on her anthology Within Sound. Alan Lomax commented in her original recording's sleeve notes:
From Cecil Sharp's English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians, Volume II, [this] is one of the few of the frankly erotic songs so common in Southern England to survive more or less uncensored in American tradition. Its centre of dispersal seems to have been the Suffolk-Norfolk area, where it still can be heard being roared out in remote country pubs…And ev-er-y time she cocks her leg,
I thinks of the fo–o–ggy de-ew.
This ribald variant has been frequently broadcast over the BBC, which in spite of its occasional stodginess, makes our American radio and television networks seem old-maidish. However, Miss Collins prefers the version that Sharp found in Calloway, Virginia. I quote her: "I think that this is the most beautiful version of the song to be found anywhere. To me, it's the only version that doesn't have a sneer behind it; it's truly tender and loving." But James Reeves, the author of The Idiom of the People, says, "it has a rough coherence, but surely none of the subtlety or the emotional and psychological interest of English versions."—and "it is an example of the hopeless confusion resulting from evident misunderstanding of traditional symbolism." However, I'm sure for girls everywhere, the Virginian variant wins hands down…
Bob Roberts sang The Foggy Dew in yet another recording made by Peter Kennedy on his 1960 Collector EP Stormy Weather Boys! and in a recording made by Tony Engle at Ryde, Isle of Wight, in August 1977 on his Topic album Songs from the Sailing Barges.
Hedy West sang The Foggy Dew in 1967 on her Topic album Ballads. This album was reissued in 2011 as part of her Fellside anthology Ballads & Songs from the Appalachians.
Packie Manus Byrne sang The Foggy Dew in 1969 on his eponymous EFDSS album Packie Byrne.
Bob Hart sang The Foggy Dew in 1969 in a recording made at home by Bill Leader. It was included in 2007 on his Musical Traditions anthology A Broadside.
Marie Little sang The Foggy Dew in 1971 on her Argo album Factory Girl.
Tom Gilfellon sang The Foggy Foggy Dew in 1972 on his Trailer album Loving Mad Tom.
John Roberts and Tony Barrand sing The Foggy Dew in 1977 on their Folk-Legacy album of ballads of the supernatural, Dark Ships in the Forest.
Ewan MacColl sang The Foggy Dew in a live recording from St. Louis, Missouri in April 1986 on his Cooking Vinyl album Black and White.
Fred Jordan sang Foggy Foggy Dew in a recording made by Ian Russell on his 1991 EFDSS cassette In Course of Time. This track was also included in 2003 on his Veteran anthology A Shropshire Lad.
Graham Moore sang Foggy Dew on his 1995 album Tom Paine's Bones.
Martin Carthy sang a much longer version than Lloyd with a tragic end—and which only shares two verses with Lloyd—in in 2004 on his album Waiting for Angels and live in December 2004 at Ruskin Mill. He commented in the former album's sleeve notes:
Mike Waterson will occasionally sing The Foggy Dew to the tune which he learned from a recording of the stentorian Norfolk singer Phil Hammond. Mr Hammond was a country boy who had risen to the rank of Major in the British army and had learned this beautifully complete way of the song from an unnamed forestry worker and who, having forgotten the man's tune, had colonised the better known Britten/Pears version, and made it his own. It's not so much misunderstood as a song as utterly "not" understood—really because the standard version is so truncated. The tune here is from the incomparable Harry Fox who sang The Barley Straw to it. Harry Cox's singing in exquisite (always) but the sentiments of that song leave me not feeling too good, so I burgled its tune and this is the result.
Damien Barber recorded The Foggy Dew in 1995 for his album Boxed (which wasn't released before 2000).
Jim Moray sang The Foggy Dew on Concerto Caledonia's 2001 CD Revenge of the Folksingers and on his 2016 CD Upcetera. He noted:
The tune here is the same as used by Benjamin Britten in his book Folksong Arrangements Vol. 3. I see it as a far sadder and less comedic song than Britten and Peter Pears did though, and I've altered the tune to fit.
Magpie Lane sang Foggy Dew in 2002 on their Beautiful Jo album Six for Gold.
Both Bill Whaley & Dave Fletcher and Martyn Wyndham-Read sang The Foggy Dew in 2003 on the 2 CD anthology Song Links: A Celebration of English Traditional Songs and their Australian Variants. In both of these versions the girl gets pregnant too but they both have a happy ending.
Danny Spooner sang The Foggy Dew on his 2008 CD Brave Bold Boys. He noted:
This beautiful old English song was given the 'nod, nod, wink, wink' treatment by Peter Piers the counter tenor in the 1930s, which reduced a tender, loving folksong to the joyless bawdry of a late-night rugby club and it did the rounds of the Melbourne folk revival in the 1960s. Fortunately, the folk tradition also kept the song alive in this glorious version that I learned from the singing of Dave Fletcher and Bill Whaley, two fine English singers. Most areas of the British Isles boast a variant of this song.
James Findlay sang Foggy Dew in 2011 on his Fellside CD Sport and Play. He noted:
And this is the cheeriest 'death by childbirth' song on the album! The theories surrounding the title and its meaning are legion, but I'll leave that to the academics. I first heard a version sung by a good friend of mine, Graham Moore. However this is his tune, with the words taken from the book The Seeds of Love.
Rob Williams sang Foggy Dew in 2012 on his CD of songs collected by Henry and Robert Hammond in 1905 from Jane Gulliford of Combe Florey, Outstanding Natural Beauty: Songs from around the Quantock Hills.
Ye Vagabonds sang The Foggy Dew in 2019 on their River Lea album The Hare's Lament. This recording won the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2019 in the category Best Traditional Track. They noted:
Brian [Mac Gloinn] learned this version of the song first from a recording of A.L. Lloyd, but over time the words changed a little, and a few lines were swapped out from the version sung by our friend Mick O'Grady. There are much more complete versions of the song, which tell a lot more of the story's details in many more verses, but this one leaves more to the imagination and Brian preferred to keep it that way.
Nick Dow sang The Foggy Dew on his 2020 album of love songs from the British Tradition, In a Garden Grove. He noted:
Collected by Nick Dow from Dick Corbett, Broadwindsor, Dorset. Dick was the landlord of the White Lion Pub. He called the song The Batchelor Song. The 'Foggy Dew' is a corruption of the 'bugaboo' or Bogie Man, hence the terrified and ill fated maiden. Dick considered The Foggy Dew to be a racy song. Burl Ives was thrown into jail for thirty days for singing a very close variant to the one included here. It did not stop him singing it, he included three verses in a Hollywood movie in 1946. Dick said he learned the song "somewhere down the way". Interestingly the eighteenth century title for the song was The Batchelor Song the same as Mr Corbett's title. Dick Corbett's ashes were spread over Lewsdon Hill in Dorset, a carpet of bluebells in the summer and no doubt a bit of Foggy Dew in the winter.
|A.L. Lloyd sings The Foggy Dew
|Martin Carthy sings The Foggy Dew
When I was a bachelor young and bold,
Oh, when I was a bachelor early and young
Well, I got that tired of living alone,
"Well, I don't think much to your old shack
It was all on one night about twelve o'clock,
One night she come to my bedside,
Well all the first part of that night
"Oh lie down there, you silly young girl,
I never told nobody her name
"Oh lie down there, you silly young girl,
One night I laid there, good as gold,
That night she started to moan and cry.
I'm a bachelor now, and I live with my son,
|Shirley Collins sings The Foggy Dew
I courted her all of the winter,
One night she came to my bedside
She layed in my arms till broad daylight,
Towards the first part of the year
Along towards the end of the year,
I loved that girl with all my heart,
Martin Carthy's version was based on the text posted by Laura XX to the Mudcat Café thread Lyr Add: The Foggy Dew (from Martin Carthy) but changed quite a bit to the actual singing of Martin Carthy. Thank you!

South Africa President Cyril Ramaphosa has called on whites who to a large extent operate in the private sector to invest in the youth and offer them job opportunities.
Ramaphosa addressed asset managers in Johannesburg on Wednesday.
The president said he'll pick ministers who will help grow the economy.
His administration is under pressure, with more than six million people unemployed.
The requirement of experience for job applicants is a major contributor to rising unemployment figures, according to the National Youth Development Agency.
South Africa's unemployment rate increased to 27,6 percent during the first quarter of 2019.
Ramaphosa said the unemployment rate "keeps me awake at night," adding: "The key mandate I have as president is to make sure that our focus is on jobs."

Sharky Products
Sharky Cleaner is an innovative screen cleaner for anyone who owns a smart phone or tablet (or laptop).
Please visit http://SharkyProducts.com to view the product. Sharky needs a new display for the cleaning stick. It is currently packaged in a blister pack (see https://copy.com/z8EOSoltIBAw) and we're moving for counter top display (there will be multiple products in one box).
We are posting two boxes as an example of where the artwork would be used. You only need to propose graphics for one of the box but please keep in mind we will need to adapt the graphic to the other box.
Both boxes have a front, two sides, and top artwork. Obviously, the top artwork is the one that needs to tell the story. The graphic need to convey AT A GLANCE what the product does. We are looking for three main key elements: (1) one line in a large font that reads "Clean your Screen" (2) a graphic showing that the device has a sprayer built in and (3) the Sharky branding (see https://copy.com/fMcyMPmds2f8). Obviously the previous image is NOT what we are looking for :-)
The box also contains sides and a front. On the larger box (https://copy.com/VydFvJDtUsGY), the sides can be used to repeat the story on top. On the smaller box (https://copy.com/CGQlIzVigRvi), the sides are often not visible and will likely only contain a unifying background and the brand. On the smaller box however, the front is as visible as the top.
We are providing two usage pictures you may use if you wish (https://copy.com/prJYijkp0NRD and https://copy.com/z7361sHsPSJc).
The following files are also available:
- product: https://copy.com/eNGPKnwvEsxk
- Logo: https://copy.com/SHudluCyHqDL
Finally, The logo is not final. we are currently working on making the shark a bit more hip but it won't be much different. (Feel free to propose a hipper shark logo for an extra $ if you get bored).
Just as written earlier, the box must tell the story with as little clutter as possible. You may use pictures of smart phones and tablets if you wish but the eyes need to be drawn to the one thing that explains the product the best. What is it which is answered by a phrase by "Clean your Screen" and how it works (show that it sprays and that the body is the cleaner).
As you can see, our original packaging is a bit "cluttered", we would like something cleaner (no pun intended) for this new packaging.

In Georgia, you have two years from the date of your injury in which to file your car accident claim. This is called the statute of limitations. If your case is not filed within those two years, it is no longer valid; however, there are situations in which would warrant an extension, allowing you to file after the two-year date. You should seek an Atlanta car accident attorney as soon as possible to evaluate your case and determine what legal options you have.
The first type of extension is due to Georgia's "discovery rule." Many injuries may not be immediately apparent after an accident; they could take months or even years to develop or mature to a point where the victim notices it. This is where the discovery rule comes into play. By this rule, if you discovered your injury after the two year mark, or if your injury could not have reasonably been discovered in two years, you may have an additional period of time with which to file your claim.
The second extension type, called "tolling," could lengthen the amount of time you can file your claim in the event the victim is incapacitated, under age, or undergoing bankruptcy. Unfortunately, the discovery rule and tolling are not cut and dry rules that may be applied in any situation.
If you've exceeded the statute of limitations, your best bet is to enlist the help of an Atlanta car accident attorney. With legal counsel on your side, it can be determined how the statute of limitations affects your particular case.
Planning to file a car accident claim? Read our free eBook, "10 Mistakes that can Ruin your Georgia Wreck Case," and call 770-487-8999 or 404-513-5415 to discuss your case with an attorney at the Law Offices of Shane Smith today.

This is the dream of many a diesel technician, a clean, quick oil change. This video shows one such system at work, which featured in a series of stories which have appeared in Diesel Workshop in recent weeks about the workshop at Blenners Transport in Tully in North Queensland.
Blenners' shuttle trucks running up and down the East Coast on staged runs are doing the most kilometres, well over 330,000 km each year. The line haul trucks heading over long distances to other destinations do a little less, at around 280,000 km each year.
Running at these kinds of numbers means the maintenance team need to keep on top of the game and minimise any breakdowns. Most of the trucks will return to Tully every seven to ten days, although the road trains to Perth have a 12 day turnaround.
"We use oil sampling 100 per cent of the time for all prime movers," says John McKnight, Blenners Fleet Maintenance Manager. "We sample at every B service, when the oil is dropped. We do the sample through our ESOC (Environmentally Safe Oil Capture) device.
"We have two of these machines and we connect them using fast fill connectors fitted to inlet and drain points, they are fitted to every engine in the fleet, including fridge motors. We connect to the fast fill connectors and it drains all of the oil out under suction. It will purge the filters ready to be changed. Then it will prime the oil filter and fill the compartment up to the appropriate level, automatically.

Gold Coast [Australia], April 7 (ANI): Multiple-time national champion Joshna Chinappa crashed out of the ongoing 2018 Commonwealth Games after slumping to straight-games defeat against New Zealand's Joelle King in the quarter-final of the women's singles squash event here on Saturday.
The World No. 14, who picked the women's doubles gold with Dipika Pallikal-Karthik in the last edition of the quadrennial sporting event, failed to capitalize on her good start in the Games and slumped to a 5-11, 6-11, 9-11 defeat at the hands of fourth-ranked Joelle in a clash that lasted a little over half-an-hour.
Earlier in the day, India's Dipika Pallikal gave a walkover to Samantha Cornett of Canada in the quarter-finals of the women's squash classic plate.
However, the reason behind Pallikal's decision is still unclear while her opponent Cornett will now lock horns with Australia's Tamika Saxby in the last-four.
Elsewhere in the day three of the prestigious multi-sport event, Indian swimmer Srihari Nataraj missed out on 50m backstroke final berth after finishing ninth in the semi-finals of the while Sajan Prakash finished a disappointing last in the men's 200 metre butterfly final.(ANI)
