    The best smart thermostat of the year – CNET

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Smart thermostats do more than manage your home's heating and cooling. These app-enabled smart home devicesmake it possible to adjust your thermostat from your phone whether you're on the couch, at the grocery store or on vacation -- anywhere your phone or mobile device is connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Many smart thermostats also work with Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri now too, giving you yet another way to adjust your settings with remote access to your smart home systems.

    Some smart thermostat systems also use smart features like a motion sensor to determine if you're home or away and automatically change the temperature -- both heating and cooling -- for you, without you having to fiddle with your HVAC system. Others rely on a geofencing radius: Once you get a certain distance from your home, they automatically switch to away mode and then back to home mode when you return. Then there are features like remote sensors, a power extender kit, thermostats that work with existing infrastructures (in other words, that are compatible with Apple HomeKit) and, of course, thermostats that measure your energy usage so that your home can be more energy efficient. Truly, a smart home thermostat is an energy-saving smart device that's good for both the environment and your wallet.

    Subscribe to the Smart Home newsletter, receive notifications and see related stories on CNET.

    Even better, these options offer way more than a programmable thermostat -- you want a learning thermostat that gets better at regulating the temperature to suit your preferences.

    To accompany these modern features, many connected heating and cooling systems boast innovative designs. From a rounded shape to a responsive touchscreen, smart thermostats look a lot different than your traditional thermostat. They can also send you smart alerts, sync with the rest of your smart home devices and some even respond to voice commands.

    Let's explore the available options model by model. We'll highlight what makes each model stand out from the rest and ultimately pick an overall winner of the best smart thermostat from the pack. Here's a list of smart thermostats we've tested recently:

    The Ecobee Smart Thermostat is my favorite pick for best smart thermostat available today. Yes, it's expensive at $249, but it has the performance and features to back it up -- especially if you want to talk to Alexawithouthaving to buy an Amazon Echo. If you don't want or need an Amazon Alexa speaker, the $169 Ecobee3 Lite Wi-Fi thermostat is also a great option. Read our Ecobee SmartThermostat with Voice Control review.

    The Honeywell Lyric T5 costs less than$150, making it our choice for the best smart thermostat pick for those on a budget. I know that isn't exactlyaffordable. But it's a solid price tag for a Wi-Fi thermostat. Many models, including the Nest Learning Thermostat and the Ecobee4, cost $249. This makes the T5 a great "budget" option that works with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri (via Apple's HomeKit). Read our Honeywell Lyric T5 Wi-Fi Thermostat review.

    The Honeywell Home T9 is a $200 smart thermostat from Resideo. The T9 works with Alexa and Google Assistant and offers reliable performance and a solid app. The device also comes with remote humidity, proximity and temperature sensors, making it the smartest sensor accessory around. Nest's sensor only provides ambient temperature readings, while Ecobee's sensor only has temperature and proximity detection capabilities. Read our Resideo Honeywell Home T9 Smart Thermostat review.

    The Ecobee Smart Thermostat comes with Amazon's Alexa built in. Ask the speaker for the temperature, current weather forecast, to tell you a joke -- and to adjust the air conditioning of your smart thermostat, all without needing a separate Alexa speaker. This Wi-Fi programmable thermostat also offers mobile app integration with Google Assistant and Siri, so if you have a Google-Assistant-enabled smart speaker or a HomePod, you can control it with Google Assistant and Siri commands. Read our Ecobee SmartThermostat with Voice Control review.

    The Ecobee mobile app setup is straightforward and easy to install and navigate. That sounds simple enough, but so many apps make it tough to find the specific setting or feature you're looking for. Not so with Ecobee's smartphone app. And that's important because the mobile app is one of the main ways to interact with your Wi-Fi thermostat when you aren't standing directly in front of it (aside from using a voice command). Read our Ecobee SmartThermostat with Voice Control review.

    Let's talk about testing. Smart thermostats start with the installation. Installations can vary widely from thermostat to thermostat and between HVAC systems, but there are some basic steps required for installing these devices. As always, consult a professional installer if you have any questions about the setup process. Here are the general steps:

    Was the thermostat setup especially difficult to install? If so, why? Certain models require a C-wire, for example, which can complicate the installation if you don't have one. Not sure what a C-wire is? Start here.

    From there, I move on to the app. Every smart thermostat has one. I download the app and create an account if I don't already have one. Then I configure the thermostat following the steps in the app. This usually means connecting to the local Wi-Fi network, giving your thermostat a name like "Hallway" or "Bedroom" and then you can start using your thermostat.

    How well does the app work? Is it easy to navigate to the thermostat settings you need? Is it simple to create a schedule or enable geofencing? This factors into the thermostat's usability score, along with how simple the thermostat hardware itself is to control manually.

    I also test smart home integration, especially voice-enabled systems you can access through voice assistants like Alexa, Google Assistant or Siri. Most connected thermostats have compatibility with at least one voice assistant and some, like the Ecobee3 Lite and Ecobee Smart Thermostat, work with all three. Do the voice commands flow naturally, like they would in an actual conversation? Did the thermostat actually adjust the temperature -- heating and cooling -- according to your commands?

    All of these things determine a smart thermostat's overall score and how likely I am to recommend it.

    Flume 2 helps conserve water and prevent home flooding from burst pipes – Android Central

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Flume was already one of the best smart water monitoring systems around, but Flume 2 is set to bring that feature set to the next level. Flume 2 features the same easy installation as the original Flume, as it attaches right to your main water meter without the need to cut pipes or call in a plumber. It can also monitor for water usage both inside and outside your home, as it's smart enough to be able to tell where the water is going and help detect leaks when they happen.

    Flume 2's upgrades include the ability to read water usage faster and more accurately, as well as the ability to better identify and separate indoor and outdoor water usage and leaks. But that's not just good for finding a once-in-a-blue-moon type of leak Flume can more effectively monitor your water usage and actually help you save money along with saving water. The Flume app easily breaks down exactly how much water you've used and gives you tips to help lower your water usage, breaking usage down by indoor and outdoor components.

    Flume says that in early 2021 it expects to update Flume 2 with the ability to actually detect individual appliance water usage, which will significantly enhance Flume 2's ability to not only detect leaks more accurately but also to help you pinpoint which of your appliances is using too much water. Flume cites that 37% of Flume buyers were able to find a leak within one week of installing the original Flume and that over 70% of total Flume users were able to use the product to find a leak in their water system at some point during the ownership period.

    In addition, most customers are said to have reduced water usage by at least 10% year-over-year after installing Flume. Flume was originally designed after the significant water shortages in California over the past several years and was created to help its customers go green in a palpable way. Flume 2 is available right now at major retailers.

    Basloe Library in Herkimer awarded $73,000 state grant for improvements – The Times Telegram

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Donna Thompson|Times Telegram

    The Frank J. Basloe Library in Herkimer will add a handicapped accessible restroom with the help of a nearly $73,000 state grant, Assemblyman Robert Smullen announced.

    The $72,647 grant was among those Smullen, R-Meco, announced Monday for libraries in New York's 118th Assembly District as approved by the state Education Department and the New York State Library Association. The fundsare available through a $34 million capital fund appropriation in the state budget.

    Basloe Library Director Christine Fleischer said the library'stwo existing restrooms will be reconfigured. Athird restroom, one compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act,will be added.

    While the present restrooms are spacious and fitted with grab bars, they are not accessible to all persons in wheelchairs, she said.

    She does not expect the work to begin until next year, as the COVID-19 pandemic has slowed the timetable. The library applied last fall for the funding.

    Weve applied for another grant and planned on combining the two projects, she said.

    The library is also seeking $185,746 to construct a new childrens room.

    At the moment, the children's room is in the rear of the library's main area out of sight for any parents working on the computers, Fleischer said.One of the windowsinstalled on the building'sNorth Main Street side will be part of the reconfigured area, which will be walled off with large windows to provide easy visibility.

    Plans call for the current childrens room area to be used for quiet study, storage space andhousing the genealogy room.

    The state funding requires a local match, said Fleischer, who added that she does not expect the library to receive the full amount requested. She said the available state funds for library construction projects dropped from the $34 million inthe current round to $14 million for the next. An anonymous $30,000 donation will provide the local share of the restroom project.

    The library would haveto raise any portion of the funding for the next phase of the project that is not covered by grant money.

    The first phase of the librarys renovation project, completed last year, included new windows, security improvements, electrical upgrades, anew circulation desk, new staff work spacesand new carpeting and paint.

    I want the library to be a comfortable, welcoming place where people can make themselves at home, she said.

    Cardi B and Offset have an $8,000 Rolls Royce car seat for their daughter – Insider – INSIDER

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Last week, the internet collectively raised an eyebrow when rapper Offset shared a picture of an $8,000 Rolls Royce car seat that his daughter, Kulture Kiari, will be riding around in.

    "8 thousand dollar car seat and i bet it has peanut butter and jelly on it in 1 week," he captioned the photo.

    Car seats tend to cost between $70 to $600, with many options costing between $250 and $350. So some people were understandably shocked, especially given the fact that Kulture's seat didn't look much different from car seats that have price tags that are a fraction of the price.

    "That's a Graco with a leather cover," one Instagram commenter wrote.

    The Rolls Royce car seat isn't the first time that Kulture has been spoiled with super-expensive gifts and baby gear. When she turned two, Kulture was gifted a Birkin Bag, worth roughly $9,000.

    In an Instagram Story that she also shared on Twitter, Cardi B clapped back at people who say kids only care about toys and candy.

    "Yeah, kids only care about toys and candy, but the thing is that kids also go outside. You know what I'm saying? Kids go to restaurants, kids go to fancy places, celebrity kids, they go do red carpets," she said. "And if I'm fly and Daddy's fly, then so is the kid. If I'm wearing Cha-nay-nay, my kid's having the same same."

    Ultimately, the brand name accessories and car seats aren't about Kulture, but about the family's image.

    "It's not up to what the kids like. If it was the kids, they would be outside in diapers," Cardi said. "No. 'Cause if I was looking like a bad bi--h, expensive bi--h, and I have my kid looking like a bum bum, then y'all would be talking s--t. So I'm not mad that Daddy bought baby a Birkin. She gonna match Mommy."

    No matter how much parents spend on a car seat, the key to safety is making sure the car seat is installed correctly.

    "A higher price does not mean the seat is safer or easier to use," according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.

    Children can be safe in the car no matter how expensive their car seat is.What's most important is to have a car seat that fits well with the vehicle and can be installed tightly, according to the AAP.

    Since Cardi drives a custom Rolls Royce, the Rolls car seat might be the best fit for the car. But it's unlikely that it offers significantly more protection than Kulture would have in a mainstream car seat.

    Price isn't necessarily indicative of a good car seat, but you want to find a seat that is easy to install. Especially if you'll be moving your child's seat between vehicles, it's good to have a car seat that you can quickly and safely install each time. But no matter what your budget, the rules of choosing a safe car seat are the same:

    While having an easy-to-wipe down leather car seat might be nice, there's no need to worry if your car seat budget is much lower than Offset and Cardi B's. Like Offset said, the seat is just going to get covered in PB&J anyway.

    Project Title:

    Comprehensive Watershed Management Planning for all Sub-Watershed River Basins

    The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians Natural Resources Department is requesting separate sealed proposals for the services of a qualified engineering firm with experience in providing comprehensive watershed management plans for the purpose of updating our current watershed plans for all sub-watershed basins. The purpose of the comprehensive watershed management planning is prioritizing watershed-based projects across the landscape throughout all sub-watershed basins. The primary objective is to develop a watershed-level planning document by which The Tribal Office of Environment and Natural Resources (OENR) and other partners can initiate future natural resource management and source water protection strategies and identify potential stream restoration activities.

    The comprehensive watershed management plan will be used to guide monitoring and conservation strategies, stream restoration efforts, BMP implementation and other nonpoint source pollutant related activities occurring in all sub-watersheds throughout the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) territory. Our objectives are to evaluate land cover and soil erodibility factors across the basin to rank sub-watershed for risks to water quality at multiple spatiotemporal scales and link land cover change over time to water quality and aquatic biota. Specifically, land cover percentages (impervious cover, agriculture activities, etc.) and landscapes features (soil types, % slope, etc.) at multiple spatial scales to categorize attributes and rank sub-watersheds from least to most susceptible to sedimentation. Additionally, landscape-level stressors within each sub-watershed will be ranked for targeting restoration activities.

    This research will specifically address research to quantify effects of impervious cover, development and agricultural activities on water quality and aquatic life to identify and evaluate existing restoration activities and augment macroinvertebrate and fish recovery efforts due to non-point source pollution. Furthermore, research will be addressed by determining sediment sources and transport and elucidating hydrological and biological dynamics to promote community resilience and enhance watershed restoration and management. Site visits and field assessment opportunities will be provided to any qualified contractor upon request.

    Contact Dylan Rose at (828) 736-0578 or by email at dylarose@nc-cherokee for further questions. Proposal packages should be addressed to Mr. Rose at the address above and must be received by 11:00 AM, November 9th, 2020 at which time bids will be opened in accordance with TERO procedures. Any bid received after the time and date specified shall not be considered. Please be advised that Indian Preference (TERO) regulations apply for award and execution of this contract. 10/28

    Kituwah, LLC is searching for qualified construction professionals to participate in a preferred network of on-call construction service providers. This network will be used by Kituwah Builders for construction sub-contracts, finish work, etc for residential or commercial projects using Cardinal Home products.

    Artist and his wife open gallery at their homestead near Berryville – The Winchester Star

    - October 20, 2020 by Mr HomeBuilder

    BERRYVILLE Keith and Kelli Patterson have turned a guest house at their five-acre homestead on Lewisville Road into a showcase for his decorative paintings. With the COVID-19 pandemic, its been harder for artists to find venues to display their works, said Kelli Patterson. So they decided to create one of their own inside the structure, which is nearly a century old and first was used as a tack and harness room for horses. The property originally was part of Charles Preston Carrolls land holdings. Carroll sold the property to his sister, Olivia Carroll, and her husband, Hugh Nelson Ritter, in 1924. The home and carriage house were built a year later. We did a little bit of a makeover on the carriage house which later became the guest house to make it suitable for a gallery, said Kelli, who recently retired as executive director of the Long Branch Historic House and Farm near Millwood. For instance, they installed overhead beams on which lights were placed and trim moulding on which hooks were installed for paintings to hang on. Most of Keith Pattersons works currently on display in the recently-opened Cosmic Harvest Gallery are nature depictions, including mountain scenes and flowers and trees in fields. There is one of birds sitting on the edge of a birdbath in a yard, as viewed through a window. A couple of paintings feature flowers in vases on tables. Were trying to concentrate on bringing a little beauty into the world, Keith said, to counteract negativity stemming from the pandemic and antagonistic political campaigns. While he has enjoyed painting for most of his life, Keith has been doing it professionally for only about nine years. Previously a home improvement specialist, he also has written short stories and songs and was a member of a band called Primal Virtue. Natural settings across the Shenandoah Valley inspire his artistry. Theyre some of the most beautiful he has seen, and theyre constantly changing as the life cycles of flowers, trees and plants evolve, he reasons. Everyone wants a painting of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the fall depicting the different, vibrant leaf colors, said Keith, who has sold about 400 of his paintings. More and more, Keith is using acrylic house paints in his works instead of traditional paints developed for artists. I can dribble it, splatter it, mix it with water and make it do different things, he said. Sometimes when the paint absorbs into wet canvases, the back sides look more visually appealing than the front sides, he mentioned. Keith uses brushes to create special effects, such as by splattering paint, but he doesnt use traditional brush strokes in his paintings. Rather, he relies on techniques such as dipping a twig into paint and then dragging it across the canvas, as well as using parts of a four-inch-long household paint roller to apply colors. Dripping and splattering are more like what nature does, he said. Nature doesnt go in straight lines. Keith describes his artistry as trying to use abstract techniques to pull off impressionist paintings. He paints daily, both for enjoyment and to keep up with demand for his works, some of which are commissioned. Ill get in a little bit of a trance occasionally, he said, and paint for up to 16 hours, or until Kelli tells him its time to stop for the day or directs his attention elsewhere. Having become friends while attending George Mason University, Keith and Kelli became a couple about a decade ago after she provided him space on the homestead to use as an art studio. They married in 2015. Kelli keeps me alive in so many ways, Keith said, holding her hand during an interview. If it wasnt for her, he said, Id lose myself in painting. Nathan Keith Patterson III, who signs his works as NKP3, surmises that he enjoys painting because he gets inspirations that grab hold of his emotions and wont let go until he portrays them visually to share with other people. He admires many other artists, ones who lived in the past and ones alive today, both professional and amateur. Perhaps he underestimates his own talents. Sometimes I see other peoples art and it crushes my spirit, Keith said. I see how middling my talent is, to his perception. When that happens, I have to ramp up my spirit, he said. For an artist to embrace his or her inspirations, you have to have some belief (in yourself) that borders on conceit. I sort of careen between having an incredible sense of self-worth and wondering what Im doing by attempting to earn a living as an artist, he admitted, gently beating on his chest in frustration. But I couldnt be more content in life, Keith said, doing what he enjoys and spending time with a partner he adores. Ill be painting on my final day on this earth, he assumes. Im expecting that, Kelli chimes in, smiling. We look forward to the post-COVID world where we dont have to do appointments only and can open the gallery full time, and perhaps hold parties and community events there, Kelli said. For an appointment to visit Cosmic Harvest Gallery, call Keith at 571-235-5786 or Kelli at 540-431-8320. They also can be emailed at nkp3art@yahoo.com and cosmicharvestllc@yahoo.com.
