fireplace insert size guide: Restoring Your Historic House Scott T Hanson, 2023-06-01 Although there are other books about renovating old houses, this is the first that prioritizes the identification and preservation of the historic, character-defining features of a house as a starting point in the process. That is the purpose of this book: to describe and illustrate a best-practices approach for updating historic homes for modern life in ways that do not attempt to turn an old house into a new one. The book also suggests many ways to save money in the process, without settling for cheap or inappropriate solutions. Scott Hanson is a historic-building preservation professional and has 40 years' experience rehabilitating historic houses. He has illustrated this authoritative book with hundreds of step-by-step photos, illustrations, charts, and decision-making guides. Interspersed throughout are photo essays of 13 restored historic houses representing a range of periods and architectural styles: Italianate, Victorian, Queen Anne, Federal, Colonial, Colonial Revival, Greek Revival, Ranch, Adobe, Craftsman, Shingle, and Rustic. With interior and exterior photography by David Clough, these multi-page features show what can be achieved when a historic home is renovated with a desire to preserve or restore as much historic character as possible. |

fireplace insert size guide: The Complete Guide to Old English Sheepdogs Malcolm Lee, 2020-11-23 The PERFECT guide for any new Bobtail owner! Learn everything you need to know including: Preparing your home for a Sheepdog Training during the first few weeks Proper Nutrition and Diet for a Sheepdog Avoiding the common mistakes most new Old English Sheepdog owners make Exercise tips and Socialization ideas See an Old English Sheepdog in the show ring with its immaculately-groomed, flowing coat and it’s hard to imagine the hard knock life for which they were originally bred. Beneath all that fur and abundant fringe, there lies the heart and soul of a working dog. Big-boned and robust, the Old English Sheepdog is never happier than when at the center of attention or in the middle of the action. First appearing in the mid 1700’s, this comparative newcomer to the canine world was originally bred for the tough life of a drover in Southwest England. Here, they were responsible for driving sheep and cattle to market. It was at this time that they picked up the nickname Bob-Tails because of their docked tails which identified them as working dogs and allowed their owners to avoid paying pet tax. Tasked with guarding and moving sheep and cattle across windswept moors and dales, they are doubly blessed with brain and brawn. Their loyalty and companionship are beyond reproach, but it is the breed’s sense of fun that is as strongly imprinted in their DNA as their instinct to herd. The Old English Sheepdog is often called the clown prince of dogs, which is a great indication of the indelible imprint he leaves on owners and breeders alike. A large breed, adult Old English Sheepdogs reach around 21-22’’ at the shoulder and weigh as much as 80 pounds. Hugely affectionate and attention seeking, they will never be far from their owner’s side. So, if personal space is high on your list of priorities, this may not be the ideal breed for you. As long as an OES is part of the family, it doesn’t matter if you live in a penthouse or a farmhouse. What does matter, though, is exercise and lots of it. Be aware, this love of human company also means that your new best friend will not make a good yard dog. Everything about this breed is larger than life, from their abundant shaggy coat to their outgoing quirky character. They also live to around 12-years of age, so making this affable breed of dog a member of the family is a long-term commitment. For all these reasons, knowledge of this large breed is essential before committing to welcoming one into your family. Are you intending to go down the puppy route, or maybe offering a loving home to a rescue dog? Then the chapters of this guide will provide you with all the information you need to get the best from your big bouncy bob tail. |

fireplace insert size guide: The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind Julian Jaynes, 2000-08-15 National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry |

The purpose of this book is to ease the problem. Better start learning now.Experience is the best teacher, but you need help before you can acquire experience on your own.Next best is to benefit from anotherżs experience. This book collects the relevant material from most of the authorsż over 50 books. They were written for people who want to help themselves. Does that include you?This book contains over 50 years of ways we have used to conserve energy. We started early: The message of energy shortages to come wasnżt widely publicized, although itżs coming was announced and published in the 1950's.We hope that rolling blackouts are the most with which we will have to cope. In todayżs culture, even that is a minor disaster. Electricity is the hinge upon which our lives swing. Most of us canżt even tell time without electricity, or when it comes back on, how do we reset the clocks? In fact, every floating automatic device in the house will need resetting.We depend upon electricity for all the niceties of living. What about the necessities?Food Preservation and SpoilageHeatLight- both to see and for securityWater-. No hot water without electricity. City and Rural water is supplied by electric pumps.Enjoy air conditioning? A hot tub, Hot water? These are things we can live without if we must, although there are energy efficient ways to have these things. Otherwise, either the cost of having them or the need to use a minimum of electricity may make them unavailable. Solar Energy will heat your home and provide hot water. It will even heat a hot tub.We use what is in this book ALL the time. |
