Cement Fiber Structural Insulated Panels (SIP) Gain Florida Product Approval

(PRWEB) May 11, 2014

Innova Eco Building System, LLC. has obtained Florida Product Approval FL16712 for its James Hardie Board Structural Insulated Panels (SIP). Innovas CSIP panels are available in lengths up to 12. Structural Insulated Panels are high performance building panels used to construct single, multi-family and light commercial buildings. A study conducted by environmental impact experts Franklin Associates, quantified the energy savings and greenhouse gas reductions of the fast-growing technology called SIPs. The study shows that building a home using Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) produces up to 10 times more energy savings. This results is an energy payback period of just 5 years. And, SIPs reduces global warming potential by 13 times more than conventional framing measured by equivalent carbon emissions, recapturing greenhouse gases in just 3.8 years. The results present a powerful life cycle analysis showing that structural insulated panels make homes more efficient, comfortable, and environmentally sustainable. As a result of the insulating efficiency of SIP, air conditioning sizes can be reduced by as much as 50% in the hot Florida Climate. With the use of low voltage lighting and energy efficient window selections, a home constructed with SIP panels will result in savings to homeowners of 50% to 70% on monthly power bills.

Innova manufactures its high performance Structural Insulated Panels in its state of the art manufacturing facility located in Miami Florida.

Texas Reads: A beach book about beaches

Usually when we use the term beach book, were talking about a novel or other interesting book intended for reading at leisure while looking out at the beach or lounging by the pool.

Beaches of the Gulf Coast by Richard A. Davis Jr. (Texas A&M University Press, $35 flexbound) is not that kind of book. Rather, its a book about beaches in general, and Gulf of Mexico beaches in particular.

The first part of the book deals with general characteristics and dynamics of beaches, then segues into the specific beaches along the Gulf Coast, from Florida to Texas, as well as Mexico and Cuba. Texas beaches get 30 pages and more than 50 color photos.

Certainly an informative and interesting book, but one to read before going to the beach.

Local History: The Shackelford County Historical Commissioned has produced a pictorial history, Shackelford County (Arcadia Publishing, $21.99 paperback).

Arcadia specializes in local pictorials and has published books about Abilene, Sweetwater, Haskell, Stamford, Ranger and many other Texas towns through its Images of America Series.

Shackelford County is a little different from most of the other Arcadia books that Ive seen in that, in addition to dozens of archival photographs, it includes short introductory essays to the various sections by Sunday Tidwell, Jane Lenoir, John A. Matthews, A.V. Jones, Jon Rex Jones, Wilma Jo Tucker Mitchell, Duston Brooks, Melinda Lucas, and the late Lawrence Clayton.

Bottom line is: Readers in Albany and Moran will find plenty of good reading as well as wonderful old photographs in this 128-page collection.

Two new Texas books from The History Press:

Painting the Town Orange by Pete Gershon ($21.99 paperback) tells the stories behind Houstons eclectic visionary art environments, such as the Orange Show and the Beer Can House.

STARGAZERS: Cornwall marks International Astronomy Day

Published on May 11, 2014

By Adam Brazeau CORNWALL, Ontario - Eyes were on the skies as fans of the planets and stars celebrated International Astronomy Day in Cornwall Saturday morning.

SD&G BackYard Astronomers (BYA) members Dan Bobka (left) and Ray Lalonde (right) stand with a visitor at the BYA astronomy display.

The SD&G BackYard Astronomers (BYA) set up a variety of telescopes at the Second Street entrance of the Cornwall library for public viewing sessions.

Traditionally, most viewing is done during the night sky since darkness enhances the view. But local residents were able to see the unique surface of the sun in daylight through BYA's powerful telescopes.

Many attendees seized the opportunity to learn more about the world of astronomy from the area's most active stargazers.

"The BackYard Astronomers were happy to share the wonders of the night sky, the moon, and the sun with visitors," said Dan Bobka, BYA member.

Museums, astronomy clubs, and planetariums across the world took part in the annual event, which was founded in California in 1973 and started in Canada in the '80s.

BYA meets monthly and also when the sky is good for viewing. Anyone interested in astronomy locally can contact http://www.ca.groups.yahoo.com/Groups/BYA.

Great view of Saturn this weekend; see it in the sky or online

Saturn lovers, listen up! This weekend is your best chance to view the most gorgeous planet in our solar system for all of 2014, and you don't want to miss it.

On Saturday Saturn will be in opposition, which means it will be directly opposite the sun from the perspective of Earth. The ringed planet will rise into view just as the sun sets and will dip beneath the horizon just as the sun rises.

At the same time, Saturn will be closer to the Earth than any other time in 2014, so it will look bigger and brighter, and its rings will be visible in heightened detail compared to the rest of the year.

Saturn will be shining brightly in the night sky near the constellation Libra, but you will need a telescope to make out the planet's iconic rings.

According to Alan MacRobert ofSky and TelescopeMagazine, a telescope with an aperture just 2.6 inches wide should let you see the rings quite nicely, as well as Saturn's giant moon Titan. Larger telescopes will reveal more detail in the rings, and allow you to see more of the planet's many moons.

If you live in Los Angeles, and you don't have your own telescope, consider heading over to the Griffith Observatory, where you can look through public telescopes on the lawn for free until 10 p.m. PDT.

If you prefer to do your sky watching on the computer, the astronomy website Slooh.com will live stream a view of Saturn from its telescopes in the Canary Islands beginning at 6:30 p.m. PDT.

Happy Saturn watching!
