reply to Esther Lapin on 10 commandments

o: Esther Lapian <estherblapian@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Ten Commandments in Every Classroom: The Texas Bill Version

You probably will find this hard to believe but, although I read what was written, I did not have the time to get my thoughts in order so as to reply.

But here is my take on the 10 commandments old and new. When I write settlers I do not lump them into one conglomeration as I know that this is the extreme group. But I ask myself why, if the others do not approve , why do they not speak out about what is being done in their names.

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.......to the settlers the land has taken the place of God as something holy. It reminds me of an argument I once had with a young niece ....that ritual means nothing if you don't accept the rule that you should not do  unto others, etc. 

Graven images...... I feel that the trips to all the tombs of the Rabbis is also a form of idolatry.   I remember as a child telling my Catholic friends that we pray directly to our God and not through statues, etc. I don't know if you have ever been to Rachel's grave but Israel has turned a beautiful and modest tomb into a travesty.  It looks more like an army installation than a  revered tomb.

We were asked to go there to document some buildings and this is what my friend wrote......"Rachel's Tomb Complex.

 We have already written about the ugliness of the complex: the surrounding high walls; the long concrete structure that hides the picturesque dome; the small and crowded women's hall compared to the large men's area; The yeshiva and the settlement attached to it. Apparently, the settlement is expanding: prefab buildings are densely placed, garbage everywhere, discarded bicycles, a circle of older ultra-Orthodox and eager yeshiva students huddled around an old rabbi, huddled together. Ad for scanning a site for free special prayers, no money. And one boy is sitting outside alone and crying.  The father comes with a piece of cake and says that the child feels at home, they even sleep here. Why? Natanya asks and he answers with a defiant smile, perhaps ironically (I answer, I know you all think like that): we don’t have to work, we get the money  from the state. We are horrified at this Shtetl attitude. It saddens me that we feel this way" . I pointed out to her that in the Shtetl people worked.

Keep the Sabbath day holy..... the settlers on Saturdays going into villages and even to the Bedouin tents and terrifying and beating people, even th old,  and destroying the contents. One only has to think of Burka and Turmoes Aya. 

Covet thy neighbour's wife.......the settlers go into the fields where the Bedouin have sown their crops with their herds of goats and the flocks  eat everything in sight.  The livelihood of these people is destroyed. 

As for they shalt not steal,kill , bear false witness, how can a group of men go masked and armed into villages and attack homes and property and afterwards claim that they were attacked.

I feel that I and my friends, many of whom are in Machsomwatch and most of whom are not religious, keep the commandments more than these people do. 

 I promise that I will keep my mouth shut in class

[quotesfrommyreading]

Many of those seriously seeking a safe haven simply hire one of several prepper construction companies to bury a prefab steel-lined bunker somewhere on one of their existing properties. Rising S Company in Texas builds and installs bunkers and tornado shelters for as little as $40,000 for an 8ft by 12ft emergency hideout all the way up to the $8.3m luxury series “Aristocrat”, complete with pool and bowling lane. The enterprise originally catered to families seeking temporary storm shelters, before it went into the long-term apocalypse business. The company logo, complete with three crucifixes, suggests their services are geared more toward Christian evangelist preppers in red-state America than billionaire tech bros playing out sci-fi scenarios.

There’s something much more whimsical about the facilities in which most of the billionaires – or, more accurately, aspiring billionaires – actually invest. A company called Vivos is selling luxury underground apartments in converted cold war munitions storage facilities, missile silos, and other fortified locations around the world. Like miniature Club Med resorts, they offer private suites for individuals or families, and larger common areas with pools, games, movies and dining. Ultra-elite shelters such as the Oppidum in the Czech Republic claim to cater to the billionaire class, and pay more attention to the long-term psychological health of residents. They provide imitation of natural light, such as a pool with a simulated sunlit garden area, a wine vault, and other amenities to make the wealthy feel at home.

On closer analysis, however, the probability of a fortified bunker actually protecting its occupants from the reality of, well, reality, is very slim. For one, the closed ecosystems of underground facilities are preposterously brittle. For example, an indoor, sealed hydroponic garden is vulnerable to contamination. Vertical farms with moisture sensors and computer-controlled irrigation systems look great in business plans and on the rooftops of Bay Area startups; when a palette of topsoil or a row of crops goes wrong, it can simply be pulled and replaced. The hermetically sealed apocalypse “grow room” doesn’t allow for such do-overs.

Just the known unknowns are enough to dash any reasonable hope of survival. But this doesn’t seem to stop wealthy preppers from trying. The New York Times reported that real estate agents specialising in private islands were overwhelmed with inquiries during the Covid-19 pandemic. Prospective clients were even asking about whether there was enough land to do some agriculture in addition to installing a helicopter landing pad. But while a private island may be a good place to wait out a temporary plague, turning it into a self-sufficient, defensible ocean fortress is harder than it sounds. Small islands are utterly dependent on air and sea deliveries for basic staples. Solar panels and water filtration equipment need to be replaced and serviced at regular intervals. The billionaires who reside in such locales are more, not less, dependent on complex supply chains than those of us embedded in industrial civilisation.

Could prefab homes solve Canada’s housing crisis? ‘It’s like an orchestra’

Canada is facing a housing crisis — the number of homes needed in the country keeps growing but not the number of people needed to build those homes. As homebuilders and policymakers grapple with this problem, some may find answers in “prefabricated” houses, according to experts.

“Prefabricated (or prefab) housing is a form of housing where the building blocks are built in a factory rather than on-site,” Matti Siemiatycki, director of the infrastructure institute at the University of Toronto, told Global News.

“By manufacturing in a factory, it means construction can be done more precisely and it saves energy costs,” he said. Not being constructed on-site also saves labor costs, Siemiatycki added.

Prefab homes have been quite the rage of late. This is from tiny homes being flaunted on Instagram to being the popular choice for an Airbnb stay, to Elon Musk living in one himself.

As of last year, the billionaire was known to be residing in Boca Chica, Texas, in a 375-square-foot, energy-efficient prefab home from the company Boxabl. The model of home, known as the Casita, starts at around US$45,500 and is delivered to the customer on the back of a semi-truck.

Some companies, like Roombus, are even integrating software into their designs to make smart prefab homes. Roombus’ Nest homes are equipped with the company’s RoomOS software that can be used to unlock your house, adjust the lights and control the climate — all with a phone.

Prefab homes have been popular in waves throughout history, like in the U.K. after the Second World War following a housing shortage, according to Siemiatycki.

“There’s a long history of prefabricated homes. You used to be able to buy them from a Sears catalog,” said Siemiatycki, who is also a professor of geography and planning at the University of Toronto.

Between 1919 and 1928, Sears, Roebuck & Company sold home kits from its “modern home program,” according to the James A. Garfield National Historic Site. One home was even named “The Garfield” after the 20th president of the United States.

In Canada, many houses are typically built using the “stick construction” method — in contrast to prefab homes, where the home is delivered after it’s constructed, according to Siemiatycki. It is a construction method in which materials are assembled on-site.

“Interestingly, we’re returning to (prefab) now because we’re in a housing crisis,” he said. “You’re hearing a lot of emphasis on prefab housing, and it’s becoming more popular.” With increased demand, there has been a rise in companies creating prefabricated homes, though one hasn’t exactly dominated the market as of yet, said Siemiatycki.

“These companies have struggled to find a foothold. There’s a lot of talk about this. However, if this is going to catch on, who’s going to become the dominant player is still really up for grabs,” he said.

For 28-year-old Sasha Weekes and her boyfriend, moving into a 608-square-foot prefab home in central Prince Edward Island helped to “cut our expenses back by a lot.” “On the East Coast, they’re quite common, especially now with the housing crisis,” she told Global News.

Weekes’ home qualified for a mortgage through Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. The biggest hiccup, however, was the delay Weekes faced in actually getting her prefab home delivered amid construction setbacks.

“People think that a prefab house will be a quicker option, but you have to do a lot of site preparations and then you have to wait for the house to be built and you have to wait for it to come,” she said.

When her home finally did arrive, two months were spent getting the septic dug and electrical installations done, before they could move in. “I think a lot of people around our age on the East Coast that have been priced out have had to use this option,” she said.

“They’re built well, and they are a better option (price-wise),” she said, but one must be prepared for the wait. Part of the solution to Canada’s housing crisis could be an increase in supply and according to Siemiatycki, “this is where prefab housing can have a big opportunity.”

Prefab homes can be constructed faster than regular houses, according to Adam Dumond, designer at Royal Homes in Ontario. “It’s like an orchestra,” he told Global News. “The home is built pretty much all at the same time. Framing, windows, and roofing — all of that can be done simultaneously in a manufactured prefab home.”

“It’s a cool alternative to stick framing. The crews are happy your home is indoors being built while the weather’s doing whatever it’s doing,” Dumond added. After the house is constructed, it is delivered in modules to the customers’ property to be assembled.

“A crane comes in and then we pick the home up and put it on the foundation one module at a time,” Dumond said. On average, Royal Homes sees about two and a half modules per house for something in the 1600-to-1800-square-foot range. Each square foot ranges roughly between $350 and $450, depending on where you live, said Drumond.

That means a 1,600-square-foot home could cost between $560,000 and $720,000 and an 18,00-square-foot home, somewhere between $630,000 and $810,000. “We have some homes that are a little bit less (in price) and some homes that are a little bit more. It just really depends on where you want to build,” he said.

In Ontario, the average price of a home sat at $829,934, as of Nov. 2022, according to the Canadian Real Estate Association. Though a prefab home may be cheaper than the average price of a home in the province, purchasing land for it to perch on is also a factor that needs to be considered.

“Every site is a little bit different,” said Dumond. It is necessary to be mindful of properties near water-shedding areas or rock formations, he cautioned. Siemiatycki agrees. “We need to be very careful that people are not buying in places that are prone to flooding or prone to wildfires. We need to be very careful that we’re not building in low-lying areas or areas that are right at the urban wildlife interface.”

In Ontario, nearly two-thirds of residents spend over 30 percent of their household budget on housing, according to a recent poll from the Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA).

Despite the rising cost of living putting pressure on Canadians, seven in 10 non-homeowners in Ontario identify as someone who “really wants to own a home,” the poll found.

And in Ontario, as well as B.C., high-interest rates are expected to continue to hold back homebuyers into the new year, according to a recent report from RBC. When it comes to architecture and design, prefab homes tend to be “repetitive,” according to Siemiatycki.

Putting personal touches on a home can also prove tricky. “There’s always a trade-off with prefabrication about how much customization you want to do before you lose the benefits — the economies of scale of building it in a factory,” said Siemiatycki.

For prefab homes to make their mark on Canada’s housing market, it is necessary to ramp up production, Siemiatycki said. “If a part of the supply is going to be provided by modular, either for single-family homes or multi-units, there’s liable to be a need for a huge amount of capacity in the market that isn’t even available right now,” he added.

Durability can also differ when it comes to prefab homes, according to Siemiatycki. “It does vary depending on how it’s built and what its lifespan is estimated to be,” he said. They need to have a history of being sustainable in places “vulnerable to environmental conditions.”

“We continue to need proper planning and making sure that where we’re building is safe to build and it’s not vulnerable because otherwise, you’ll just be creating real further challenges down the road for everyone involved — the municipalities, the first responders, and for the people that are ultimately living in these homes,” he said.

It’s wise to look for a reputable company, according to Siemiatycki. “This is thinking through (not just) who’s manufacturing, but also who’s assembling it,” he said.

Also thinking about whether the property can be rented out or resold down the road is something to be mindful of, Siemiatycki added. “There’s a lot of research that is involved in buying a home. For many Canadians, this will be the largest purchase they make in their life,” he said.

Container Homes Gold Coast - 40ft Container homes.

What Are the Advantages of Shipping Container Homes?

Shipping container homes are durable, cost-effective, and customizable:

They can be more cost-effective than traditional housing. You can purchase a container home for as low as $10,000. They are typically more cost-effective than conventional housing because they require fewer building materials and labor to construct. You can lower the cost of customizing your container housing by renovating the dwelling using your DIY skills.

They’re quick to construct. Some contractors can build a shipping container home in under a month. However, hiring a professional to build your container dream home can be pricey. To avoid hefty construction costs altogether, you can purchase a prefabricated container home from a growing list of companies specializing in building prefab homes off-site.

They’re modular homes. Shipping container homes are easy to modify. You can build a home with a mix of 20- and 40-foot containers. You can also combine multiple containers to create a larger home with a living room, dining room, extra bedrooms, a second floor, or even a container guesthouse.

They’re durable. Manufacturers typically use corten steel to build shipping containers. This self-healing steel protects cargo during transport across bodies of water. Shipping container homes made from weathering steel can likely withstand inclement weather conditions better than traditional housing.

They can be mobile. You can use a dedicated shipping transportation service to pick up and relocate an off-the-grid single-container house anywhere in the world.

What Are the Disadvantages of Shipping Container Homes?

Shipping container homes have a few notable disadvantages:

Obtaining building permits can be difficult. As a relatively new phenomenon, it can be difficult to obtain the necessary permits to build your shipping container house in some regions. However, there are several places in the United States (including Texas, California, Colorado, and Oregon) and abroad (including China, New Zealand, and Costa Rica) that host shipping container homes and have regulations in place. Ask your local city planning office for more information about building codes, zoning restrictions, and permitting requirements for container housing.

Shipping containers are not always eco-friendly. Many proponents tout container living as a great way to recycle old containers, but some home buyers prefer to convert new containers into housing. Used shipping containers are more eco-friendly, depending on the history of use. Used containers can incur damage while transporting goods, or have a history of transporting dangerous chemicals. These factors make repurposed shipping containers a less ideal option for some potential container home buyers.

Modern appliances can be difficult. Unless you plan to live off-grid, you’ll need to find a reliable licensed electrician who is familiar with shipping container architecture to design and install custom electrical setups for your house. You’ll also need to hire a plumber to install the necessary plumbing work. If your location doesn’t have access to electricity, you may need to hire a contractor to install solar panels onto the roof.

They often need reinforcements. While storage containers are built out of durable steel, you can compromise their structural integrity with certain modifications—for instance, cutting holes for a door or large windows. While shipping containers can withstand certain weather conditions, the weight from heavy snow can cause the roof to bow if the corner castings aren’t strong enough. You will need to hire a contractor to reinforce load-bearing walls or install a sloped rooftop.

5 Ways to Prepare for Your Shipping Container Home

Here are some tips to prepare you for purchasing your first shipping container home.

1. Be prepared for the costs. Many people begin container building projects because they think it will be inexpensive. Shipping containers alone cost thousands of dollars, not including the labor costs for complex and custom construction. High-end shipping container homes or larger homes can cost as much as traditional housing. Keep your budget in mind before you begin shopping for container home designs.

2. Contact your city planning office. While traditional houses have zoning rules and building regulations, your local government may not have set regulations in place for container homes. Contact your city planning office and request information regarding regulations for non-traditional homes. Find out if there are any special considerations you need to make when designing your own container home plan.

3. Design with natural light in mind. Steel shipping containers do not have access to natural light. When designing your floor plan, consider installing glass doors or skylights to make your interior space look bright and open. If the space is too small, consider purchasing a high-cube container, which is slightly taller than a traditional shipping container.

4. Inspect your container before purchase. As with any big-ticket purchase, it’s important that you see your container home in person before you buy it. Look for dents in the siding, rusting on the exterior, and leaks, which can be expensive to fix during construction.

5. Note the limitations. Shipping container structures are made from heavy steel to transport goods, so they don’t feature the necessary accommodations for a traditional living area. Door holes, window holes, and snow on the roof can compromise the structural integrity of your container. Understand the limitations of the structure before making a purchase.

Tips For Choosing A Good Floor Plan For New Jersey Prefab Homes

Choosing the right floor plan for New Jersey prefab homes can be easy if you know the right steps to take. Before you part with your hard earned money to invest in prefabs, you need to know exactly what you need in modular homes. The following are some of the most important questions to nail down at the beginning of your modular home journey.

First of all, you need to ask yourself if you will need any additions such as a balcony, basement, deck, garage or attic space. It is important to determine your storage as well as parking needs early on.  Bringing items from your vehicle inside your home is important for safety as well as efficiency. It is also important to consider storage for items such as sports equipment, holiday decorations, and lawnmowers. Of course, among the best things about living in the New Jersey is the beautiful summer weather, so you will need a deck with large patio doors and then a basement to help keep cool during the hot summer months.

Another question you need to ask yourself when choosing a floor plan for New Jersey prefab homes is if you would like an open concept or dedicated rooms.  You need to prioritize your family needs and plan accordingly so that your prefab home fits with your family dynamic. If you would like to keep an eye on the kids while cooking dinner, you may want a large great room. But if you are looking to create intimate spaces or have a lot of art to hang on the walls, you will be better off with separate dining rooms and living rooms. The most important thing is to choose a plan that is a better fit for your family.

Reasons Behind The Popularity Of Maine Prefab Homes

So you have decided to become a homeowner in Maine. This is a very important step in your life, so you need to make sure you know how to navigate it well.  You can either go the traditional site-built homes, or you can opt for Maine prefab homes which seem to be attracting the attention of many people lately.

There are various reasons why prefab homes are being preferred these days. The first one is that they are better for the environment. Since these homes are constructed in one central place before they are assembled on site, workers can settle close to the factory and commute a short distance instead of traveling to a potentially distant site every day. This results into less CO2 emissions. Prefabricated homes are also better for the environment since fewer materials are used in their construction and because they disturb the site less compared to the conventional construction.

Another reason behind the popularity of Maine prefab homes is that they are healthier. Since materials on construction sites are subjected to rain and snow, they can get covered in nasty environmental toxins such as mold, mildew, and rust. Even though it is possible for materials to get affected by these toxins indoors, they are less likely to get affected.

Prebuilt homes are also better for remote locations. If you come from a remote region, a prebuilt structure is a good option because it is built in one central location and then delivered. This alleviates the difficulty in finding contractors willing to travel a long distance to build a home. You simply need to find a good manufacturer near you to build for the prefab home of your dreams.

Annie Residence. South Congress Ave. Downtown Austin Modern Home

The house was built for two families in Austin and therefore is split into two living areas. The house consists of two pavilions connected by a glass hallway.

 The design was greatly influenced by different regions and cultures. Both the use of the roof as an outdoor living space and the shading devices are derived from Moorish architecture. The body of water and the spatial continuity between inside and outside was inspired by Asian architecture. while the structural transparency of the volumes and the minimalist aspect of the interior was derived from Japanese pavilions.

 The house is constructed of a modular steel frame. The frame is infilled with prefab thermasteel panels to minimize construction on-site waste. The structural frame is exposed, showing the construction process and articulating the house’s facades. The repetitive modular method, as well as the prefabrication allowed for greater efficiency during construction.

5 Things to Know When Choosing Your Modular Home Company

Your new modular home is too important to purchase blindly.

You’ve done your research and have concluded that a modular home is exactly what you want. They are faster to get into, you get to choose where to put them, they are less expensive, and easier to customize specifically for your lifestyle. Yes, a new modular home will be the perfect fit for your life.

Now, it’s time for the really important decision.

Who is going to build your new modular home?

Choosing the right company to build and place your modular home is just as important as choosing a builder for a stick-built home. In addition to the importance, there are many manufacturers out there and they are not all equal when it comes to building your modular home. Texas homeowners or soon to be homeowners, need to take this part of the process the most seriously and consider these 5 things before deciding on a company to go with.

1) Pricing Your Modular Home

Before you decide on a company to go with, get quotes. Most importantly, make sure you are comparing the same design of home, square footage, quality, and customizations. Don’t get quotes for two homes, only to find out later that the cheaper home you went with has lower quality materials.

Also, have your quote broken down, so you know exactly what you are getting for the price. You don’t want to have surprise charges you have to pay for later.  Start the process by getting a quote for one company and then take that quote sheet and start shopping around for prices on other modular homes. Texas is a big state and there are plenty of companies to look at.

2) The Process of Building Your Modular Home

Ask lots of questions of the companies you are getting quotes from, most especially about their process. What kind of timeframe are you looking at from contract signing to finished process? Are they backed up on their orders? Do you need to be doing anything at a specific time during their process? What are the steps of your new modular home’s creation inside the factory? What is done at the property site after your new home ships?

Know exactly what you and they will be doing for the next few months to get you into your new modular home.

3) Practicality of Your Modular Home’s Design

Just because a company can build you a modular home mansion, doesn’t mean you should. You decided on a modular home because it was cost-effective and you could get into it quicker than a stick-built home, going with a company that does only huge, ornate modular homes starts to negate a lot of the benefits of why you chose a modular home in the first place. A more complicated modular home is costly and also will take longer to build.

Yes, you could probably get a nicer modular home for the price of a plainer stick-built home. But, ask yourself these 3 questions:

1. Why did you choose to go with a modular home in the first place?

2. What timeframe are you looking at that you want or need to be in your new home by?

3. Are you taking into account the additional expenses of items like landscaping, putting in a driveway, and having a garage built after your modular home is delivered when you are looking at the price of a specific modular home?

4) Reputation of Your Texas Modular Home Builder

Before you make a final decision on a modular home company, check their reputation. You don’t want to go with a company that has a reputation of bad customer service, poor workmanship, and constantly not making deadlines during the building process of a modular home. Texas homeowners that have had bad experiences are usually very vocal about them, so you should have no problem being able to find customer reviews on any of the Texas modular home companies you are considering.

5) Support After Your Modular Home is Built

Just because your modular home has been delivered and you have moved in, doesn’t mean the company that built it is done. While you are asking questions about price and the process of building your new modular home, make sure to ask about their customer support for after you have moved in.

You want a company that will be there for you if you find anything wrong with your new home after you have started living in it.

Choosing the right Texas modular home company is important for this new chapter in your life, so take your time and find one you can trust.

Before you decide on a company to go with, get quotes. Most importantly, make sure you are comparing the same design of home, square footage, quality, and customizations. Don’t get quotes for two homes, only to find out later that the cheaper home you went with has lower quality materials.

Also, have your quote broken down, so you know exactly what you are getting for the price. You don’t want to have surprise charges you have to pay for later.  Start the process by getting a quote for one company and then take that quote sheet and start shopping around for prices on other modular homes. Texas is a big state and there are plenty of companies to look at.

2) The Process of Building Your Modular Home

Ask lots of questions of the companies you are getting quotes from, most especially about their process. What kind of timeframe are you looking at from contract signing to finished process? Are they backed up on their orders? Do you need to be doing anything at a specific time during their process? What are the steps of your new modular home’s creation inside the factory? What is done at the property site after your new home ships?

Know exactly what you and they will be doing for the next few months to get you into your new modular home.

3) Practicality of Your Modular Home’s Design

Just because a company can build you a modular home mansion, doesn’t mean you should. You decided on a modular home because it was cost-effective and you could get into it quicker than a stick-built home, going with a company that does only huge, ornate modular homes starts to negate a lot of the benefits of why you chose a modular home in the first place. A more complicated modular home is costly and also will take longer to build.

Yes, you could probably get a nicer modular home for the price of a plainer stick-built home. But, ask yourself these 3 questions:

Why did you choose to go with a modular home in the first place?

What timeframe are you looking at that you want or need to be in your new home by?

Are you taking into account the additional expenses of items like landscaping, putting in a driveway, and having a garage built after your modular home is delivered when you are looking at the price of a specific modular home?

4) Reputation of Your Texas Modular Home Builder

Before you make a final decision on a modular home company, check their reputation. You don’t want to go with a company that has a reputation of bad customer service, poor workmanship, and constantly not making deadlines during the building process of a modular home. Texas homeowners that have had bad experiences are usually very vocal about them, so you should have no problem being able to find customer reviews on any of the Texas modular home companies you are considering.

5) Support After Your Modular Home is Built

Just because your modular home has been delivered and you have moved in, doesn’t mean the company that built it is done. While you are asking questions about price and the process of building your new modular home, make sure to ask about their customer support for after you have moved in.

You want a company that will be there for you if you find anything wrong with your new home after you have started living in it.

Choosing the right Texas modular home company is important for this new chapter in your life, so take your time and find one you can trust.
