This list will take about 3-6 weeks to complete, if you are working the business full time. During that time, we suggest assembling and disassembling a couple of practice turbines, we provide, per week for practice.What is the normal progression of the business in the first few years? For most of us, there is probably a common progression in this business. The first year is always the hardest. I always say if you just keep your head above water the first year, marketing constantly in the beginning, the second year gets a lot easier, and in the third year you will feel like you are coasting. First, it is all about having a strong first year, growing your business through a combination of mailings and visits back to back to increase your number of accounts, and getting to know your accounts("schmoozing the gate keepers"). In the beginning, this mass marketing will grow your account base, however, over time, I believe most of us will settle into a comfortable level of accounts, and will back off some on the mass marketing, to instead focus on increasing sales to your existing accounts. Each and every dental office uses someone to repair their handpieces with most national companies either being located in New York or California. What we do is offer a local alternative to these national companies. Through a combination of speed, price, and service we are able to provide a better handpiece sales & repair service than a national competitor. It is up to each of us what level is a comfortable level of accounts. As you reach a comfortable level of accounts, most of us will back off of the mass marketing some, and will focus instead on taking good care of our individual accounts. Then, as you increase the total number of handpiece repairs completed each week, you will begin to sell other items to your dental accounts such as disposable prophys, small equipment, and other products. At the same time, your accounts will begin to offer you other items for repair such as sterilizers, cameras, and ultra-sonic cleaners. Since, they see you as a repair company they will offer you other items as they break down in the dental office. In conclusion, the business is all marketing in the beginning to grow your accounts to a comfortable level, and then over time, you may not do the mass marketing as much as in the early years, but will instead focus on increasing your sales, service, and product mix to your existing accounts who at the same time will offer you other business in their office. This business is very profitable, and simple to operate after you have grown your account base. Once you have a mature product mix, the parts costs are about 25 percent of gross sales, after that you would pay your office/marketing expenses, and your salary and household overhead. A mature product mix would include sales and repair of a broad range of makes and models of handpieces, selling some disposable items such as disposable prophys, sales and repair of various small equipment such as sterilizers, cameras, and ultra-sonic cleaners, and sales of dental air stations, purge units, and other equipment. As your business matures, you will do more than just handpiece sales and repair. Once, you have operated the business for a while, it is not very labor intensive, and can provide a good quality of life. It is not a get rich quick business, but can provide a good income with hard work while providing a needed service to customers in your local area. Would you suggest doing dental handpiece repair in a mobile vehicle? We would never suggest doing repairs in a mobile vehicle, nor have we ever done repairs in a mobile vehicle. Occasionally, people will ask me what we think about trying to do this in a mobile vehicle, and I will give them these 4 reasons why we would not suggest it. Comfort--You would need to have everything secured, good lighting, air compressor, generator, computer, printer, all of your tools/parts secured, etc. I think it would be extremely difficult to make your work space in a vehicle comfortable, not to mention the unnecessary costs of this vehicle and its preparation. Customer reaction--The average highspeed with practice will take about fifteen minutes to repair. Here is a common scenario; you go to a dentist's office, and pick-up 3 highspeeds, then you go out and sit in there parking lot to do the repair. You go back inside there office 45 minutes later, and present them with a $450 plus bill. I will just about guarantee you will get comments, like wow you never left the parking lot, and you want $450 plus dollars.Limiting of your capacity--Trying to drive around and pick-up and repair all your handpieces will prematurely max out the amount of handpieces you can repair in a day. We suggest personal pick-up and drop off in the beginning, but as you become busy and your account base grows, you will be able to repair more than 5 to 10 times the amount of handpieces if you were not trying to do all of them in a mobile van. Over time, you can begin to do your pick ups or return deliveries, as you are too busy, through FedEx and US Postal Service Priority Mail. To us, the goal over time is to have the handpieces mailed to us and for us to mail them back to the customer. You would not be able to repair anywhere near the number of handpieces mobile, as you would by managing pick-ups/returns through couriers, and repairing the handpieces in your home. Double shop tooling--Lowspeeds are more complicated and some require glue set time, therefore, I would assume you would want a repair office in your house to do the more complicated lowspeeds in a more comfortable setting. Then, would you buy 2 sets of tools for the mobile shop and the home shop, or would you be carrying them back and forth each time? We offer next day service on highspeed drills and 2-3 day service on lowspeeds, and if we need extra time for some reason on a particular handpiece, the dentist offices are not concerned. In most markets, traditionally over many years the only source for handpiece repair has been the manufacturers and catalog companies, who have gotten better with increased competition, however, they have usually taken 2-6 weeks for a repair. What you would offer as an independent sales and repair center to the dentist is a local alternative which through a combination of speed, price, and service would be a better option than the manufacturers and catalog companies who now do the majority of the business. Most dentists who are currently using a national competitor would be trading someone who takes weeks to someone who takes days.Also, dentists are not stopping their work due to a single handpiece going down. Each chair or station could have up to 15 different handpieces including highspeeds, lowspeed motors, nosecones, prophys, and contra angles. The sterilization cycle in the Autoclaves and Chemclaves will take about 30 minutes to cycle fully. It is extremely rare that we pick up a handpiece and a dentist says he is hurting for that single handpiece. In conclusion, I bet you would find that anyone who starts doing this business mobile does not continue to do it mobile for the reasons I listed above. Plus, one of the issues I did not stress enough about trying this mobile was lighting. We do not deal with micro size parts, but we are dealing with very small parts, such as putting o-rings inside the handpiece turbine chamber, sometimes beneath ledges. Bringing good strong light from multiple directions is important to making handpiece repair comfortable for your eyes, particularly as we age. I am in my second decade of doing handpiece repairs and from my experience I would truly dread trying to do this in a van. For these reasons, we would never suggest doing handpiece repairs in a mobile unit. This business can easily be run as a home based business, which will reduce your overhead costs initially and over time. The business can be run from a small bedroom or other space. We have trained people from all over the world including the USA, Canada, Mexico, England, Ireland, India, Puerto Rico, Thailand, and other locations. None of our trainees do this business in a mobile vehicle, and we would not recommend it.Who is my competition in this business?Manufacturers of the handpieces including Midwest, Star, Kavo, NSK, etc. Their average repair time is 2-6 weeks, and they charge 100% or more than we charge. Catalog or Mail order companies such as Sullivan-Schein, Patterson, Darby, etc. Their average repair time is 1-2 weeks with shipping, and we under price them on repairs and equipment. Local independent companies, and franchisees. Wherever you go in the world, the competition is generally the same. The different sources of competition are; the handpiece manufacturers, the dental catalog companies, and local competitors including franchisees and independents. Most dentists will mail their handpieces to a national company usually in California or New York, and what we do is offer a better local alternative whereby we can outperform national competitors through a combination of speed, price, & service. With the local competition, most of us will grow our business to a certain number of accounts, and will tend to take care of the accounts after that by increasing sales and service to those accounts. We suggest focusing on providing a good product, a good service, at a fair price to the dentists in your local area, and we like to "schmooze the gate keepers." What type of handpieces and models will I learn to repair?Highspeed Dental Handpiece Drills Lowspeed Dental Handpieces Ultra-Sonic ScalersNosecones, contra angles, and other attachmentsWe have chosen various makes and models for our intensive hands on training courses that are representative of all makes and models in the handpiece repair business. The handpieces you will repair during training will include a broad range of makes and models from American, European, and Asian brands including Midwest, Star, Kavo, and NSK-the major worldwide manufacturers. Can you describe the products and services offered to dentists?We offer dental handpiece sales and repair to dentists in our local area. Each and every single dentist office uses someone to repair their handpieces, and usually it is a national manufacturer or a national catalog company. We offer the service locally while competing with the national competitors, but by being in the local market we can offer;A much quicker repair serviceA higher level of customer service with a local company including quick and easy pick-ups and drop offs.A lower price or similar price depending on which of the national competitors the dentist is using. You are also, free to market the business statewide, nationally, internationally, or through the Internet. We do not restrict you in any way as to how you grow your business. We also can sell and repair various other items to dentists including small and large equipment such as sterilizers, cameras, ultra-sonic cleaners, dental air stations, flush/purge units, cavitrons, lights, dental chairs, etc. We also sell various supplies such as handpiece lubricants, handpiece cleaners, disposable items such as prophys, and other supplies.Can you describe what Orion Repair is offering to open this business?We are offering an independent option to open this business rather than a franchise for a one time fee. We encourage everyone to compare us to the rest of the companies offering this training including the franchises such as Hayes Handpiece and The Dentists Choice. We are offering a similar package to the franchisers, but at a much better value initially and over the long term. We are turning over all of the nuts and bolts of our business including; the parts suppliers, how to set up your wholesale accounts, our preferences for parts and suppliesour marketing flyers, brochures, catalogs. We provide those to you on computer CD and train you how to use the small business publishing program we use in order for you to remove our information and replace it with your company information, as well as, how to create your own marketing material.a hands on intensive training course that is taught one on one with a factory trained instructoraccounting and marketing training and set-up3 years of Free telephone/e-mail/retraining support instruction in shop and office set upinstruction in how to solicit Federal business including military bases, VA hospitals, and prisonspractice motors for use at home3 Training ManualsComputer CD with digital graphicsDiagramsShop tooling and parts inventory can be purchased with training courses or we provide a list of the suggested itemsCan you describe a typical transaction for this business?A typical transaction for our business would be an office manager or hygienist would call us, and leave us a voice message that they have a handpiece or several handpieces to be picked up at their office. It depends on the office some offices will call you as soon as one handpiece breaks down, and some offices will wait until they have 2, 3, 4, or 5 handpieces to be repaired. Also, very rarely do we deal with the dentist directly. Most dentists, unless it is a very, very small office have delegated the handpiece responsibility to an office manager of hygienist. Then, the office manager or hygienist will leave them at the front desk for us to pick-up. My wife and I work our business together, and she would go pick-up the handpiece at the dental office and bring it home for repair. I do most repairs in the afternoon after she has completed the pick-ups in the morning. To repair the handpieces;We take the handpieces completely apart, to clean, flush, and polish the handpiece both internally and externally.We repair and replace the dental turbine including various parts including bearings, orings, gaskets, washers, chucks, spindles, etc., We run various tests after completion to ensure the handpiece is running like new again.The next morning, my wife would make an invoice and call the dentist office with the total. The dental office would pay by a check or credit card. If it was a credit card, we would take the credit card information over the phone and print the credit card receipt out first, then staple it to the invoice. Then, along with the handpiece and invoice, we would take a few additional items out to the dental office including;A Service Requested Form which is the form next time they have handpieces to be repaired they can put the make, model, serial number, problem encountered, and the doctor's information.A Maintenance Form which gives the office some tips on lubrication and handling in the office.Various goodies or freebies including logo pens, logo note pads for their desks, logo rolodex cards, candies, and various other promotional items.What if I get something odd to repair, like an ancient belt driven handpiece, or if I only came to you for highspeed handpiece training, how would I repair lowspeed or odd models?You would always offer Free estimates on all makes and models. You would be able to repair any handpiece either in house or by mailing them off to various companies we recommend depending on the handpiece or equipment. If you came to us for only the highspeed training course, you would still be able to accept and repair all makes and models for your customers. You would not reject any handpiece from your customer, but instead offer Free estimates on all makes and models. You would repair the highspeeds in house, and you would send the lowspeeds off for repair. Lowspeeds generally take longer than highspeeds to repair, and your customers would not need to know that you send out some models, while doing some models in house. We still mail off some handpieces for repair, for various reasons from discontinued lines, to some surgical models, and some other specific need handpieces. Any handpiece or equipment you mail off would receive a wholesale repair price, that you would then mark up to a retail price. Will I be able to repair or sell small equipment or dental chairs?Yes, you will be an authorized distributor for many vendors including DCI, the premier dental chair and equipment manufacturer. We provide a source to repair every handpiece made. If you can't do it in house, we have a source that can repair any odd model. We give you everything we use to run our business, and show you how to set up your relationship with many companies in this industry from original manufacturers, parts companies, repair companies, and other related companies that you may use occasionally over time.Can you come to my location to offer training?Yes, we can travel to your location to offer training. For an additional $5,000 fee we will travel to a mutually convenient location in your local area, such as a hotel conference center to conduct your training courses. Also, for an additional $1,000 we can provide design and set up assistance for your shop and office.How long is the training day?Paul will meet you in the lobby of your hotel the first morning of training at 8am to give you an orientation on the town, and some lunch/dinner suggestions. We will begin training each day, after the first day, at 8:30am.If your arrival is delayed or late the day before training, we can begin at 9am on the first morning of training to accommodate for jetlag and/or international travel.If you need to leave on the 6th day of training a flight can be scheduled for the mid to late afternoon. The last day is a review day, and can be cut short if needed for travel arrangements.We provide refreshments including bottled water, beverages and snacks during training. There are bathrooms available. An outdoor walking and break area is, also, available during training time.What countries have people come to Orion Dental Sales, Training & Repair from for training?The United States of AmericaCanadaMexicoEnglandIrelandItalyBelgiumIndiaThailandSouth KoreaGuyanaDo you provide any turbine motors for practice at home after training?Yes, we provide 15 highspeed turbine motors to be used for practice at home after the completion of training. We provide a checksheet of things to do before opening which is a list of common items needed to open the business.

The injection system is located around the automotive engine and it contains the gas pump, rail, relay, and sensors like pressure regulators and the gas induction system, which periodically injects an atomized gas spray into the engine, during its functioning. Guaranteeing that the suitable strain and volume of gasoline is provided and then injected into the engine, in accordance with RPM demand, is another process.
How to Clean Fuel Injectors
There are two ways of cleaning fuel injectors. One is to use a fuel injector cleaner, available in the market and do it yourself. Another method is to have it professionally serviced and cleaned. While the latter may be more expensive and time-consuming, it also can be the best process. This process is better, because in addition to cleaning, repair is done (if needed) on the injector at the same time. It should be undertaken approximately once a year, or according to your dealer's instructions.
The fuel injector is a small engine part, that injects fuel at a rate that is controlled by the ECU (Engine Control Unit). The fuel pump supplies pressurized fuel to the injector, which is then atomized and sprayed into the intake valve of the engine, according to the air-to-fuel ratio requirements. It allows the filtered fuel to be used by the engine correctly. Cars run properly and get the best mileage, when the fuel injection system works properly and stays clean. The fuel injector cleaning process works best if you can find the optimum fuel injector cleaner for your particular car.
How to Clean Fuel Injectors
Step #1 : Disable Fuel Pump and Block Fuel Line
You will need an injector cleaning kit. After you have bought a kit, first read the instructions. You will need to locate the injector and make sure that fuel will not go through it, while the engine is operational. This can be ensured by using tubing, to bypass the fuel injector (making the fuel return to the tank) or removing the fuel pump (along with blocking the fuel return line) and preventing fuel to enter the injectors.
Step #2 : Disconnect the Fuel Pressure Regulator
Before continuing with connection of the fuel injector cleaner kit, you must disconnect the fuel pressure regulator.
Step #3 : Connect Cleaning Kit
Now you can connect the cleaning kit to the fuel input port, which is part of the fuel rail. Before going ahead, remove the fuel cap from the tank, to release the pressure that may be built up by the cleaning kit.
Step #4 : Set Cleaning Kit Valve Pressure & Start Engine
Check your car manual for the precise injection pressure value and open the kit valve till the pressure value matches the recommended value. Now you can start the engine, which will send the cleaning solvent through the injectors and clean out any debris that's preventing proper operation. The complete passage of the cleaning fluid will take a few minutes.
Once the fluid has done its job, you can switch off the engine. Restore the fuel pump and fuel line, back to working condition and reconnect the fuel pressure regulator. At this point, you are done with the job. When you attempt to start the engine, without the cleaners hooked up to the engine, you will notice a significant change in performance. If you do not notice any difference, you will need go to a fuel injector cleaning service at your local mechanic shop.
Cleaning vs. Replacement
Today's fuel standards are much better than what they used to be, and so are the fuel injectors. That said, fuel injectors are still not all that easy to replace, because of their cost. But you can't keep using a clogged injector either; the fuel sprayed into the engine is irregular in this case, which reduces fuel efficiency.
DIY cleaning kits are good, although they are no real substitute to a good mechanic. Products like BG 44K do improve the fuel injector's spray a little, but not so much as to eliminate mechanical assistance altogether. It is still suggested to use the cleaner twice a year - once after winter fuel stops and once after summer fuel stops.
Replacement is no minor thing either. Good injectors cost quite a buck, so it's not wise to keep replacing them every time one goes bad. But with the advantage of good technology, you don't have to replace for a long time anyway.
Other options include using seafoam, which creates quite a bit of smoke for a few minutes. The basic principle is always the same: if you're going for a DIY method, that method will most likely involve cleaning fluids or detergents that clean out the entire system instead of attacking a specific problem. And it does take some qualified effort to completely clean out the dirt caked up inside the injector's nozzle at high pressures.
Be sure to take your car to a mechanic if you have finished cleaning the injectors and you do not notice any improvement in the way the engine runs. Cleaning fuel injectors is a bit of a chore, but it can end up saving you money and time in the long run.

High Pressure Cleaners, Excessive Pressure Cleansing Tools, Excessive Strain Cleaning Machines
When making an attempt concrete cleansing the problem level relies on what strategies are utilized. Most Karcher client-sort cleaners include cleaning agent suction, telescopic handle and quick join couplings. Medium-responsibility and industrial models: Medium-duty and skilled Karcher strain cleaner models are constructed with high-performing pumps and engines that enable residence users and businesses to clean average to heavy dirt and take away stains on a regular basis. The cleaners can then get to work, conducting any level of companies that the business wishes.
When utilizing your stress washer for cleansing, there are specifically formulated detergents that can be utilized, relying on what job you are carrying out. Compressed air is filtered into use for respiration fuel for the diving cylinders, so often there are two sorts - surface equipped diving (low strain) and compressors used for scuba diving cylinders (high pressure). Specialist air compressors are used on this trade as there are various components to fulfill the security of divers - e.g. fuel mixing, warmth and the strain required. The primary nail gun utilizing air pressure was launched in 1950 to hurry up housing construction.
We may have bought a gas powered power washer with far greater pressure and water circulate however in our expertise this ratio is about proper. You may always turn this pressure washer right down too if this stress is simply too great, as an example, in case you are washing your own home. The Simpson pressure washer additionally comes with 5 clip on spray tips of various degrees, plus it has a detergent tank. Initially we observed that once you released the set off on the Simpson PS3228-S strain washer it brought on the pump to cease dispersing water that the Honda would backfire. This is the second Honda powered strain washer I've owned and so they've yet to let me down.
Just as there are a selection of various sorts of dirt sediments and stains, there are additionally totally different kinds of stress washers. For example, if your cleansing situation includes clearing up things like heavy grease, oil and grime, then steam pressure washers are the machines to use. Other than the facility of high stress ranges, these machines additionally use excessive temperatures, preferrred for dissolving and removing difficult oil and grease deposits.
How to Get Rid of Weeds in Cracks Without Using Herbicide
Any landscape with hard surfacessidewalks, stone walls, brick borders, paved driveways, etc.is sure to have at least a few weeds in cracks. Here a some organic solutions to the problem, some more permanent than others.
TEMPORARY SOLUTIONSBoiling Water
Pouring boiling water in cracks will kill weeds if their roots are shallow. After treating, simply pull or scrape the scalded plants out by hand. (You may have to apply the hot water more than once. Weeds are real survivors!)
Although boiling water won't actually kill mature weeds like dandelions, which have deep taproots, it will offer a temporary respite from them.
Flamer Weeders
Flame weeders work similarly to boiling water, killing weed growth above ground.
Flame weeders produce the best results (weed death) when used in dry conditions on small weeds. If used on larger, deeply rooted weeds, the results will be temporary, much like treating the weeds with boiling water.
High-Pressure Washers
A high-pressure washer, like the ones people use to clean their pavement and siding, is another way to remove shallow weeds effectively from cracks in sidewalks and driveways. Of course, power washing won't work on gravel, and it could blast away the hardscaping as well as the weeds if used on cracks between small stones or border pavers.
MORE PERMANENT WEED SOLUTIONS
Removing weed roots and fleshy roots (like the bulbils on pink oxalis, a.k.a. pink shamrock) is a more permanent solution than killing the weed growth above ground. For prying roots from cracks, weeding knives and hand forks work well.
Karcher reports significant growth in Qatar.
Quickly becoming a high-growth market for Karcher, the cleaning technology provider reported 20.8% yearly growth in Qatar for the period 2012 - 2015.
Additionally, the company sold over 45,000 machines and spare parts in 2014, and is expected to reach 50,000 by the end of 2015.
Commenting on Karcher's success story in Qatar, the firm's managing director for Middle East, Richard Nouira, said: "Our high-pressure cleaners, vacuum cleaners, floor scrubbing machines, accessories and our chemical detergents have gained year-on-year market share."
[[banner]]
Elaborating further, the managing director explains the company has seen a great number of hot and cold water high-pressure cleaners adopted by the nation's construction sector.
These units have proven ideal for cleaning mix vehicles, backhoes, bulldozers and any heavy equipment. Additionally, the high-pressure cleaners are also suited for cleaning drain lines, tanks, heat exchanges, sewer lines and cooling tower components.
Outside of construction, Karcher products have been deployed across a variety of sectors. This includes petrochemical, aviation, infrastructure and retail. Some of Karcher's prominent clients include Qatar Petroleum, RasGas, Qatar Foundation, Qatar International Airport, Qatar Airways and Qatar Rail.
The company has been active in Qatar's market for the last 35 years through dealers and partners. It wasn't until Febuary 2015 however, when Karcher opened a dedicated service centre in Doha with its dealer, Qatar Trading Center (QTC).

Keolis Announces Best October On-Time Performance for MBTA Commuter Rail Since 2006
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Keolis Commuter Services, which operates the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) commuter rail system, finished out the month of October with an unadjusted on-time weekday performance rate of 90.44 percent, the best performance for that month in nearly a decade.
A significant number of delays for the month were caused by trains that had to be operated at lower speeds for safety reasons because of slippery rail conditions. When adjusted for slippery rail and other conditions or incidents not under the control of Keolis, on-time performance was 94.44 percent.
Were pleased to have delivered the strongest OTP for October since 2006, but we also recognize that these results dont mean much to passengers who did experience delays this month for whatever reason, said Keolis Commuter Services General Manager Gerald C. Francis. I want our passengers to know that every member of our team remains committed to providing them with a service that is safe, reliable, and on time, each and every day.
Keolis officials said October and November are typically challenging months because of falling leaves which compact against the tracks creating slippery rail conditions.
When the rails are slippery, locomotive engineers operate the trains at lower speeds to ensure the safety of passengers and crews, much the way drivers slow down when road conditions are icy. To combat slippery rail, Keolis crews use high power washer trains to clear the tracks and spread sand and a gritty silicone gel to keep the tracks safe.
While we cannot eliminate slippery rail entirely, we know these delays are very frustrating, and we do everything we can to keep the tracks clear when the leaves start falling, Francis said. But getting our passengers to their destination safely will always be our first priority.
The October results were in keeping with the Service Improvement Plan approved by the MBTA this summer in which Keolis pledged that trains would be on-time (adjusted) an average of 92 percent for the remainder of 2015, with no single month falling under 90 percent.
About Keolis
For more than a century, Keolis has been a global leader in managing passenger transportation systems throughout the world, transporting 3 billion passengers a year via trains, buses, shuttles and taxis, while providing fleet management and maintenance, logistics and routing services.

Wedding registries: What to scan, what to skip
That KitchenAid mixer you just never sprung for, or that dinnerware set for the "adult" dinner parties you may finally throw -- or perhaps a canoe. Yes, a canoe. These days, couples' registries are all over the map. But there are some guidelines to keep in mind when choosing all those gifts that will help you and your sweetie down a path of "together."
"The whole purpose of a gift registry is to have your friends and family help you in your future life together -- whatever that means...It's very wide and flexible these days," said Nancy Lee, president of MyRegistry.com.
And with many couples getting married later in life, brides- and grooms-to-be may already have many of the typical items that come to mind when you think of a wedding registry. But that doesn't mean you should go forth into wedding bliss without registering.
"Today, the majority of couples move in together before the wedding, so they start buying some of their basic necessities sooner, and then feel like they actually don't need to register," said Elizabeth Graves, editor-in-chief of Martha Stewart Weddings. "But it's important to register for a few reasons -- your guests will want to give you something, and better it be something you want. The tradition of a registry is also a nice one, it's for your loved ones to help you set up your new home together. And while you might not think you need fine china or serving pieces this very second, you'll be happy to have these items later on when you need to host your first Thanksgiving with the in-laws."
The first thing you should do before getting gift-happy is to assess what you have as a couple -- see what voids needs to be filled and outline your needs. According to TheKnot.com, the average couple registers for 153 items. That of course will vary based on your wedding size. But how do you know what to pick?
If you still need those good old basics, then go for it. Storage containers are extremely popular, specifically the OXO Pop 10-piece set, Lee said, who noted that many couples, for example, will register for that KitchenAid mixer. "They're expensive. They start at $259 and they go up to $559. It's one of those items, maybe you'll use a few times year, but your wedding is a great time to get your hands on it because you might not have sprung for it on your own," she said. "You need to go into your kitchen and ask, 'Do I have a great knife set?' Do I have a great blender? Do I want a juicer?' --- You may want those specialty electrics like a panini maker. Now's the time to get those items that you missed and you're always thinking, 'Oh, I need to get one of those!'"
Graves said it's also an opportunity to upgrade what you own. "Get rid of your college duvet, pots and pans, and get high-quality items that you'll use and cherish for life. I get a lot of joy out of using the things people gave us for our wedding, too -- it may have been five years ago, but every time I use my Le Creuset covered casserole I think of the O'Brien family because they gave it to us and I'm glad we have it!" she said. "At the very least, outfit your kitchen with everything you will need and load up on towels and nice bedding."
Larger serving pieces are also very popular. "People tend to get larger servings pieces because when you're living with fiance you may not have done that much entertaining, but once you're husband and wife, Thanksgiving and bigger holidays may become your responsibility. So there's bigger serving platters are a must-have," said Lee.
And if you're not ready for that fancy china set (Lee sees a lot more casual dinnerware than china), it's possible to choose chic modern dishes that can go both ways. "So if you have that big dinner party of 12, you can pull out the rest of the dinner ware and be fine," said Lee.
Overall, a 2011 survey from TheKnot.com found that the most popular registry items were bakeware, kitchenware and appliances, kitchen accessories, cookware, bath items and bedding.
Once you have the basics out of the way, it's time to think about some fun things to add into the mix -- like a grill for entertaining, a waffle maker for lazy Saturdays, or even a margarita maker or fondue set for those raucous Saturday nights, suggests Graves. "Or, maybe you want to start a garden together and will need tools, plants, and seeds to get going," she said.
"In this day and age, many brides get married much later in life. They've been living with their fiance for however long or they've been living on their own," said Lee. "They have a KitchenAid mixer, they have a toaster, they have a blender. They like their bedding. But what they really want is a fabulous honeymoon, or maybe they want to put a down payment on a home, pay off student loans." According to TheKnot.com, 12 percent of couples in 2011 registered for their honeymoon.
It's also important to pay attention to the number of items on a registry. "You definitely want to make sure there are at least as many items on your registry as couples...You must register in every price range," advised Lee. "What you think is appropriate and what your Aunt Bertha thinks is appropriate and what your college roommate from 10 years ago thinks is appropriate is completely different."
Studies show that people spend money according to two things: their relationship with the couple and their financial wherewithal. Lee says it's important to include items starting as low as $25. It's a reality -- those distant friends and relatives may not want to shell out a ton of money for your wedding.
But it's OK to put pricier items on the bridal registry menu, too. Jamie Miles of TheKnot.com says she's seen an uptick in guests teaming up and going in for gifts at higher price points. According to TheKnot.com, 77 percent of brides say they have received 1-3 group gifts.
Which brings us to the next step: where to register. The Knot.com recommends at least three retailers, noting that half of couples register at three or more places. The top three registry retailers at TheKnot.com are Bed Bath & Beyond, Target and Macy's.
"You want to make it more convenient for people coming to your wedding -- so they're not struggling to get to a store that's really remote," said Miles. "Allow them to easily to purchase something for you."
With a global registry site, such as MyRegistry.com, for example, couples can register practically anywhere, with access to online retailers -- all in one place. They're no longer tied to a few stores and a scan gun. Lee says she's seen a lot more groom participation this way. It's not uncommon to see couples pick gifts from Loewe's or Home Depot. You name it -- some couples are registering for drills, power washers, tool kits, lawn mowers, weed wackers, his and her mountain bikes and exercise equipment.
"It's very common to see guys' things on gift registries," said Lee, who noted that brides and grooms who use MyRegisty.com are also opening up cash funds to help them pay for their wedding or honeymoon. Brides and grooms can set up a cash fund online that directly connects to their savings account.
Finally, you'll need to inform your guests about how to get those lovely presents.
"Don't send out the information for your registry on your wedding invitation," said Miles, who suggests building a wedding website and include where you're registered on there.
Not surprisingly, social media is finding its way into the registry mix, too. In 2011, 11 percent of registered couples shared their registry details over a social network, compared to 5 percent in 2009, reports TheKnot.com.
No matter what registry and stores you choose, in the end, the registry list needs to reflect you, experts say. "No two registries are going to look the same because no two couples are the same. No two couple's relationship -- or what they want out of the future -- are the same," said Lee.

Power Washing concrete driveway, sidewalk, patio and porch
The larger end of the spectrum, for homeowners in my humble opinion anyway, we find the butt kicking entry-level professional sized pressure washers. Professionals need machines that are extremely easy to set up, take a no nonsense approach to power washing, that get the job done quick, fast, and in a hurry.
The most important thing to remember, when comparing lesser-powered pressure washers to more powerful machines, we need to understand what and how GPM effects the way a pressure washer works. GPM is simply the measure of how many Gallons of water per minute a pressure washer pumps through the high-pressure nozzle on the end of the cleaning wand. The more water pumped through the nozzle at a given pressure, the more cleaning power, or cleaning units a power washer will have, and the harder it will be to control.
Imagine for a moment, getting behind the wheel of a small gas sipping compact car. Start the engine, put the car in gear and put the gas pedal to the floor. What happens, it takes off no excitement, no smoking the tires or any white-knuckle experience. Conversely, jump behind the wheel of a 600hp Viper, fire that puppy up, put her into gear foot on the floor and enjoy the drive, if you dare. Now I know there are some of us that will enjoy the experience, still others of us might just soil their under pants.

Are you toxic? | Examiner.com
Toxins are everywhere in our world today. Pollution, pesticides, chemicals in the food we consume, chemicals in our dry cleaning, womens makeup, and the list goes on and on. When our bodies absorb too many toxins, it can't function as well as it should. Combine that will poor eating habits and a lack of movement, you have a formula for disaster. It may not happen today, next month, or even next year but it will eventually catch up with you.
YouAreWhatYouEat.com
In my research and education, I found a link between fat loss and toxicity. The fat on our body acts as a storage area for toxins. Internal fat, known as visceral fat, is the most dangerous of all fat as it wraps itself around our organs. Think about you being shrink wrapped and having to walk around all day. Not too comforting, is it? Increased fat and the toxins it stows may cause an increased risk for type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, fatty liver, and high triglycerides to name a few.
I was in that exact scenario. Obese, minimal exercise, and eating all the wrong foods. Everything took precedence over my health. Sure, Id hear tie bits in the news and periodicals about toxin this and toxin that but didnt really pay much attention to it until I was diagnosed with diverticulitis.
As I started working out and eating better, some of the fat came off but it was an uphill battle. I later learned that my difficulty in losing my body fat was primarily due to my toxicity. Once I began detoxifying my body and my organs, my liver and pancreas could do their job more easily. Following a healthy diet with exercise, I was then able to see the pounds shed more easily. To date, Ive lost 67 pounds of fat and toxins!
There are so many cleansing products on the market today that you really have to be careful about their quality, ingredients and safety. Many of them are like drinking carpet cleaner. Not good for the body! If you have a medical ailment, I highly recommend talking with your doctor before starting a full body cleanse. The cleanse I use is made up of all natural ingredients - berries, herbal supplements, and minerals, and is not just a colon cleanser. It cleanses at the cellular level - releasing free radicals and toxins from my body and allowing the cells to do their job more efficiently. In my opinion, this cleanse is the fountain of youth!
Cleansing is great but what if you consistently eat sugary, salty and high fat foods? I still believe that the cleanse is a start to better health and nutrition but in a future article, I will explain that losing the fat is a process of mental conditioning. Weve been abusing our bodies for so many years that it makes eating the right foods a more difficult task. Many people suffer from emotional eating and find themselves back in the same place (or worse place) than they were before they started.
I hope that this information is eye opening to some of my readers. I know that this information has been around for quite some time but when youre overweight or obese, you just dont take this information to heart until youre mentally prepared to plant your stake in the ground and make a commitment to improve your well being.

Briggs & Stratton Introduces AMPLIFI Hose Powering and Storage System
Briggs & Stratton, a leader in yard and outdoor power equipment, introduces AMPLIFI, a new hose powering and storage system for faster and easier everyday, outdoor cleaning and watering projects.

The first of its kind in the market, AMPLIFI is a versatile watering and cleaning system featuring an electric motor and pump, a five-setting spray nozzle with Detergent-on-Demand capability, and an attractive, durable hose storage container. AMPLIFI can supercharge a garden hose and deliver three times the pressure, 4.5 times the force and two times more flow than a typical garden hose.
It is the only system that has gentle nozzle settings, ideal for completing routine watering of plants and flowers and powered settings for frequent washing of picnic tables and patio furniture. The power jet nozzle setting features laminar-like flow technology, which means water flows out smoothly and in a streamlined manner. The powerful spray enables homeowners to tackle difficult tasks most standard garden hoses cant handle, such as cleaning gutters, awnings and second story windows.
Unlike a gas or electric pressure washer meant for heavy-duty, infrequent cleaning tasks, AMPLIFI is designed for everyday cleaning and watering jobs. Pressure washers specialize in deep cleaning with high water pressure and low flow to remove years of accumulated dirt and grime. AMPLIFI uses a high flow of water with less water pressure making it ideal for more frequent watering and cleaning tasks. The AMPLIFI system can also apply soap or detergent in any setting with the Detergent-on-Demand feature, saving time when washing vehicles or patio furniture. And, because it can be stored outside, AMPLIFI is always ready for routine projects or spur-of-the moment outdoor cleaning tasks with no set-up time.
AMPLIFI is the worlds only hose powering and storage system made for homeowners looking for a step up from their standard garden hose, said Eric Loferski, Briggs & Stratton director of marketing. More than three years of research in the outdoor cleaning and watering category revealed consumers were looking for an always-ready, easy-to-use product that could accomplish both activities on the fly. We also found a group of consumers who werent interested in using a pressure washer because it had more power than they needed to tackle everyday cleaning tasks, but they wanted more pressure from their standard garden hose. AMPLIFI delivers on those needs, while also providing attractive hose storage and minimal upkeep.
AMPLIFIs low-maintenance electric pump and motor are housed neatly in the bottom of the hose storage container. They work in concert with the nozzle, turning on and off automatically as the nozzle settings are adjusted. AMPLIFI also neatly stores up to 75-feet of heavy-duty garden hose. The Detergent-on-Demand system requires four AA batteries and can be used with any pressure washer safe detergent.

Lawn and Garden - Discussions - Garden Hose
Yes - I agree with Leslie!! TUFF-GUARD is great. AND it's made in the USA!!!
I bought a 50ft. hose from QVC and tested it out and was very impressed. I went back to order 2 more - to attach together for the back yard but they had sold out - and I was placed on a waitlist. After 45 days, still nothing back in stock - so I went online to Ebay and other websites comparing prices. I ended up getting a 100 ft. hose off of EBay and now have it in the back yard.
Yes - it does NOT kink. And because I have river rock around scrubs in front of the house - I find when I'm dragging it over them - it moves little rock as it passes over them. The only problem I'm finding in the front yard, is the large black open pot I place the hose in to store it. It first wants to curl one way, then after a few turns, wants to curl the other way. It's not a design flaw - it's just the nature of how it's made. I am currently on the look-out for a hidden hose reel storage for the front faucet area. I don't want a big looping hose hanging down to spoil the look of my landscaping in front of the house.
Tuff-Guard hoses are light weight and easily shuffle along in the grass and sidewalk areas.And because of the non-kink nature, it rarely gets tangled when I'm pulling it out to use. It's almost like there is an inner spring inside - built inside the hose. I don't think you'll be disappointed - but shop around - some places have sky high prices!!

Splendid splurge: Dyson DC59 Motorhead cordless vacuum review
In addition to an assortment of brush heads, the DC59 Motorhead comes with a charger and a wall hanger for out-of-the-way storage.
Dyson claims that its DC58 and DC59 Motorhead models with their digital V6 motors offer three times more suction than any other cordless vacuum, and having thoroughly tested the DC59 Motorhead, I believe it. Dyson also gave the DC59 Motorhead 75 percent more brush bar power than its cousin, the DC59 Animal.
I have never seen a cordless vacuum that comes close to the level of suction in the DC59 Motorhead, and it vastly out cleans my regular upright corded vacuum, too. I've seen Dyson's Cyclone Technology in action in other Dyson vacuums, but encountering such performance in a cordless vacuum simply blew me away.
Dyson as a company says it spends over $2.5 million each week on research and development and employs more than 1500 scientists and engineers working on its technology. Dyson subjects its prototypes to 636 different validation tests, punching on/off buttons 20,000 times, dropping them 10,000 times and slamming cleaner heads into iron table legs.
The Dyson DC59 Motorhead comes with a two-year parts and labor warranty and sells for $427 at last check on Amazon.com as well as at select retail stores and Dyson.com.
Some may consider that a large chunk of money to spend on a vacuum, but consider that you get a vacuum that's not only built to last but is also versatile enough to function as your main vacuum, plus a cordless vacuum and hand vac for cleaning stairs and vehicles.
Parents who named children 'Adolf Hitler' and 'Aryan Nation' won't receive custody of newborn son Hons
ByDaily Mail Reporter
Updated: 00:58 EST, 23 November 2011
A New Jersey couple who named their children 'Adolf Hitler' and 'JoyceLynn Aryan Nation' have lost custody of their newborn son.
Heath and Deborah Campbell were told to hand over their baby Hons to welfare officials immediately after she gave birth at Hunterdon Medical Center on Thursday.
A New Jersey judge ruled on Monday that the baby would stay in the state's care.
'Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler!': The five-year-old's parents say their three children were taken away after purchasing a written birthday cake for their oldest son, Adolf HitlerThe Campbells, who have denied they are neo-Nazis, made headlines in January 2009 when a supermarket refused to decorate a birthday cake for their son Adolf Hitler, now five.
Adolf, and siblings JoyceLynn Aryan Nation, four, and three-year-old Honszlynn Hinler Campbell - believed to be a reference to Nazi leader Heinrich Himmler - were also taken into care shortly afterwards and remain in foster care.
Authorities maintained it was done because of violence, not their Nazi-inspired names.
Pasquale Giannetta, an attorney for the couple, said state child services representatives took custody of the Hons at the hospital nursery.
A court hearing was scheduled for Monday in Flemington, New Jersey to determine whether the agency would keep custody.
According to FOX News, Heath Campbell claimed outside of the courtroom his son was taken without a court order.
'They kidnapped my kid,' he said. 'I've been sleeping with his little blanket from the hospital.'
Chilling court records: The oldest child, Adolf (shown with a sister), was reported in court documents to frequently threaten to kill people'They look at you because of what you wear. So what? I'm German. Who cares? Is that right to judge someone?' he asked.
In court filings, child services says the children were in danger because of previous violence in the Campbell home.
Last month, the parents were found not guilty of child abuse but they have yet to receive their children from protective custody.
Evidence of abuse: A New Jersey appeals court ruled in 2010 that there was sufficient evidence of abuse or neglect in the home because of prior domestic violence which the Campbells have deniedThe pair said they gave their children their names simply because they liked them and they were unique, not equating to child abuse.
Keith and Deborah Campbell get to see their children for two hours every week and contend that the only reason their children were removed was due to their children's names.
Mr Campbell has said that the names of his children will not be changed.
'I dont sleep, I dont eat much. I miss my kids. Miss their pitter patters on the floor,' their mother told NBC 10 in October. 'Its hard. I fall asleep with their pictures.'
Following the judge's decision last month, the family were told the children may be home by early December.
'Can't wait for the decision,' Mr Campbell said after hearing the news. 'Can't wait for them to come home.'
Mrs Campbell says her children were removed after she requested a birthday cake for their son at a local grocery store to read, 'Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler.'
While the first store refused the request, Mrs Campbell says a Walmart's bakery in Pennsylvania obliged.
Only their names: The father of the three children claim a judge admitted that his kids were taken away only because of their names and not because of abuseBut immediately following the boy's birthday the parents were summoned in reports of child abuse or neglect.
In 2010 a New Jersey appeals court ruled that there was sufficient evidence of abuse or neglect in the home because of prior domestic violence - the Campbells have denied despite a gag order - causing the children's removal into foster care.
The authorities had said it had nothing to do with their names.
'Actually, the judge and DYFS told us that there was no evidence of abuse and that it was the names!' Mr Campbell said after last month's hearing. 'They were taken over the children's names,' he insists.
But court records last year stated that both of the children's parents had been victims themselves of childhood abuse and while unemployed, were suffering from unspecified physical and psychological disabilities.
Court records also show that Adolf, five, frequently threatened to kill people.
The mother reportedly had also once given a note to her neighbour saying she was terrified of her husband who had threatened to kill her.
'They beg to come home all of the time,' Ms Campbell said to NBC10 last month. 'They beg to see their dad, they want to see their dad all the time.'

Tips for natural stone cleaning at home
To ensure longevity of your natural stone it is important to keep it well maintained.
Because stone is more porous than other ceramics, it requires a much more intricate approach.
Certain cleaners are specifically designed for natural stone because they are acid-free and concentrated neutral pH cleaners. These ensure the stone is unblemished during the cleaning.
Prior to the stone cleaning, the stone needs to be dampened to make the cleaning solution work better.
Allow the stone cleaning solution to settle and then carefully clean the surface with a sponge or harder utensil.
After it has been cleaned, you can apply a wax to enhance the stone.

Sauropods found to have high tooth replacement rate
Sauropod dinosaurs were found to have a high rate of tooth replacement and a set of replacement teeth growing in their mouths in a new study conducted by Michael D'Emic from Stony Brook University and colleagues from other institutions that was published in the journal Public Library of Science on July 17, 2013.
doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0069235.g001 Michael D. DEmic et. al.

The authors estimated tooth replacement rates in Diplodocus and Camarasaurus, two distantly related sauropod dinosaurs of similar giant size. Camarasaurus had up to three "baby teeth" lined up in each tooth socket, and replaced about one tooth every 62 days. Each Diplodocus tooth socket held up to five replacement teeth and one functional tooth, and each tooth was replaced once in 35 days. The volumetric rate of Camarasaurus tooth replacement was 10 times faster than in Diplodocus because of its substantially greater tooth volumes.
Sauropod dinosaurs were the largest terrestrial herbivores known, and would have required huge food supplies. Eating large amounts of plant foods likely caused extensive tooth wear, requiring this constant growth and replacement. Differences in the rates at which these species replaced their teeth could reflect differences in their feeding strategies or food choices.
Sauropods differ from mammals in that mammals exhibit a quality over quantity tooth replacement strategy.
How To Wash a Wooden Boat
With boating season fast approaching or even if we are in it the middle of boating season, your boat deserves a good washing. Washing removes built up grime, dirt, slime and all the other residue left on boats from being in the water or being stored for the season. Typically, a boat that you take out of the water and trailer back home or wherever you store your boat, should be cleaned after each outing. It is good practice to clean it before the next use. Just make cleaning a part of your boating day and won't get to be such an overwhelming chore. Boats that are docked for the season require heavy duty washing once the boat comes out of the water and most definitely before you cover it or shrink wrap it for the winter.
Washing
Rinse it with fresh water to remove layers of salt if you are boating in saltwater. Even if you are on fresh water, rinse the boat to remove slimy residue. Use a hose with a high power spray nozzle to blast the slime and debris off the boat's surface.
Choosing Detergents and Washes
Choose a mild detergent specifically made for wood hulls. Avoid harsh abrasive cleansers, steel wool, stiff metal brushes, scouring powders and harsh chemical washes. Abrasives can damage the coating or remove it in spots, which allows water to come in direct contact with the wood. Exposed and unprotected wood can absorb the water causing the wood to swell and eventually it can become a breeding ground for mold and mildew. Mold and mildew leads to wood rot. Once wood rot creeps into the wood, the fungus will destroy the wood, which will require heavy duty, costly repairs. All of which are bad for the boat. Boating stores carry specialized washes for wood and they can also be found online.
Choose a bio-degradable detergent and pour 1 cup into a bucket of water. If you are using a specific boat cleaner, follow the label direction for amounts of cleaner to use and the correct amount of water.
Scrubbing the Boat
Dip a long handled sponge mop into the cleaning solution to satuarte the sponge mop head. Rub the mop head vigorously over the surface of the boat from top to bottom and stem to stern. Dip the mop in the cleaning solution several times while washing the exterior of the boat. Rinse the mop often with plain water to remove residue from the mop and prevent redistributing over the hull and other boat surfaces.
Rinse the boat well with plain water from a hose with a high pressure nozzle. Use a nylon scrubbing pad or a nylon scrubbing sponge and the cleaning solution to scrub away tough build-up.
Cleaning the Teak
Wash the teak parts of your boat with a specialized teak cleaner or mix 1/2 cup of household ammonia into a bucket of water and scrub the grimey, slimey area with a sponge or soft bristled scrub brush. Rinse the boat thoroughly.
Avoid
Do not use scouring powders, steel wool, bronze wool or anything that will abrade the finish. Stick to elbow grease, sponges and nylon scrubbers to keep you boat looking good and clean for a long time.

My Experience with Aquashield (Protex Thermal/Energy Solutions)
Around 10 days after signing the contract an Aquashield "Surveyor" Joseph Bradley arrived to measure up my house. That took less than 2 minutes as all he did was run an old style tape measure from one side of my house to the other. When I asked if he needed to go around the rear of the property he said "no" and that was it, he left. The following week workmen arrived to begin the work; pressure washing my roof to remove any dirt and moss, and replacing missing and damaged tiles. That seemed to go okay and I was told that they would return "on a dry day" to complete the work. The next day however I noticed that they hadn't cleaned all of my roof; I live in a mid-terraced property and at the front of my house, to one side they had missed a strip from the ridge tiles right down to the guttering, about 18-24 inches wide. I called the office and was told that the workmen would return to assess the problem. Eventually they arrived and straight away said that they couls see what the problem was. The house to my left is a council-owned property and when council workmen had painted the guttering on my neighbour's property, they had inadvertently overlapped 18-24 inches onto my property. When Aquashield washed my roof, they used the painted guttering as a guidline for where to stop. The workmed tried to tell me that it "would look stupid" if they coated that strip of roof because the guttering was a different colour to my own and that it would be better to leave it as was! I pointed out that the strip of roof was mine, it belonged to my property, it was my house below that piece of roof and I was paying to have it washed, treated and coated. They agreed to wash the missed section when they returned to complete the work.
Another week passed before they returned, but true to their word they washed and coated the section of roof they had missed first time around. I inspected the work and pointed out a couple of broken tiles they had failed to replace, refusing to pay until it was done. I was told that they had no more tiles in the van but after a phonecall to the office I was told tha they would return the next day with replacement tiles.
The next day I had two job interviews and although I wasn't overly happy paying the company without being there myself to inspect the work, with the pressure of the interviews I rather stupidly left a cheque for payment with my neighbour and asked her to pass it on to the workmen if they should arrive while I was out. When I arrived home, my neighbour greeted me and confirmed that the workmen had indeed been. I checked my roof and the broken tiles had been replaced.
The next day my sister came over to visit. Although it was raining very slightly, I took her outside to have a look at my 'new roof'. You can imagine how shocked I was to see that, just two days after the coating was applied, it had almost completely washed off of the section the workmen had failed to wash when they came initially. I telephoned the Aquashield office straight away and was told that someone would call me back. After waiting several hours, and being that it was a Friday afternoon close to 5 O'clock, I called back myself to ensure that I got to speak to someone and voice my complaint before the weekend. Finally I was told that the workmen would be sent to assess the problem. Over the next several days I took photographs of my roof - putting the photos onto my laptop revealed more areas where the coating had been missed, was patchy or was wahing off and it was getting worse each time that it rained.

Removing Algae from Boats
Algae growing on the hull of your boat not only mars the boat's appearance, but it can also impact your boat's performance negatively. Algae are microscopic aquatic plants that live in water and feed on sunlight. They like to cling to solid surfaces, such as boat hulls, to help them reach more light.If you've got a green hull and need help, the experts over at Bass Pro, have a few tips for removing algae. If one of these methods below doesn't work, move on to the next one. Or try a combination. You'll soon have your boat looking brand new again.
Algae cling to the surface of your boat's hull and start to colonize that location. One of the simplest and easiest things you can do to help prevent algae buildup is by rinsing off your boat after use. This method is useful for when you are storing your boat in an off-water location such as a storage space or warehouse.
Once the boat is on the trailer and out of the water, attach a spray head to a garden hose connected to a clean, fresh water supply and spray the hull thoroughly.
There are a number of marine hull and pontoon cleaners out there on the market specifically formulated for removing algae and other pests from your boat's hull. You can purchase aluminum cleaners for use on aluminum hulled boats and pontoons, as well as cleaners for fiberglass hulls. Although there are a wide variety of chemicals, the application is more or less the same: apply them to the surface of the hull, wait a specified amount of time, then wipe or scrub the algae off with a nylon brush. Follow up the treatment with a rinse from a fresh water supply.
For removing those stubborn algae stains, you can try a plastic putty knife. These are typically used in drywalling. Purchase the plastic type, and not the metal type, which can damage the hull. Simply scrape the putty knife gently across the surface of the hull, removing any algae growth and buildup. Follow with a standard hull treatment and then a rinse with fresh water.
Finally, a power washer can be a big help in cleaning a boat. Mix up the power washing fluid according to instructions and spray the algae off the hull. Take care not to use too high a setting with the power washer to avoid damage to the hull.
Once you're done removing the algae from your boat, try one of the above steps regularly to keep it clean and free of the dreaded green tint throughout the year.
How to Write a Complaint Letter
Average:
Your rating: None Average: 4 (2 votes)
Dont be a crazy person. That is the number one rule for writing a complaint letter. Im not kiddingthat simple idea will go a long way toward getting your problem resolved. Its simple: If you come across as having your act together, you have a good shot at getting the complaint dealt with quickly. If, on the other hand, you come across as out of control, your letter will be ignored.
As a consumer reporter I receive more than 1,000 consumer complaints a week. I have been on the job for well over a decade. Do the math. I have read thousands upon thousands of lousy complaint letters and a handful of good ones. Heres what Ive learned:
By the time most consumers are ready to sit down and write a complaint letter, they are fed up. They also know every single detail by heart. The problem has taken on gigantic proportionsif not in real life, then in the consumers mind. This is completely understandable. The consumer feels wronged and has worked hard to get the problem solved. Yet nothing is resolved. Because of that, consumers end up writing exactly the wrong complaint letter: a letter that is too long and too complex.
Advice
If you must CC your letter, CC it to only one organization. Although most consumers are convinced that it helps to CC a letter to a host of agencies and individuals, it does not help. Usually it shows that you are an amateur. Those of us who receive CCs tend to ignore them. If the letter is being CCed to a half-dozen organizations, I assume that everyone else is reading the CC and I can ignore it guilt-free.
One consumer wrote me a letter about her experience with a leaking faucet. She wrote about the decision to buy a new sink. How she had shopped for a faucet. Why she had bought the faucet shed decided upon. How much the faucet had cost and the store where she had made the purchase.
She explained how the faucet was installed and who installed it. She described her mistreatment by the company that made the faucet. Whom she spoke with when she complained and what she was told. She explained, in detail, why she felt the customer service representative was snide.
The letter went on for ten pages before she stated the problem: the faucet leaked. In journalism thats called burying the lead. Thats when the most important factthe faucet leakedis overwhelmed by less important facts.
Because the consumer had been dealing with the problem for so long, she knew too much. If you find yourself in a similar situation, heres all you need to know to write a complaint letter that will get read and acted upon.
1.You get four paragraphsthats it. No more, no matter how complex the problem. This letter may be the first in a series of contacts; you will offer more information later, if requested, but you cannot force it down their throats.
2. The paragraphs must be short and to the point.
3. Dont be snide or condescending.
4. Dont complain about the complaint process. That is a different letter.
Advice
Dont send a letter addressed to a major corporation and expect a response. The letter must be addressed to a specific person. Telephone or go online and look for the name of the person in charge of complaints, or at least the person in charge of the product or service you are complaining about. If you cant find the division managers name or the consumer-complaint persons name, then send the letter to the president of the company, using his or her first and last names in the salutation.
I called the woman with the leaking faucet and suggested that she rewrite the letter into my four-paragraph style. She took my advice, and the company took care of her problem.
E-mail is an easy way to complain, and thats why e-mails tend to get ignored. With e-mail, consumers dont have to put forth much effort to write the complaint. In return, companies dont put forth much effort to fix the problem. The more you put out, the more you get back. Dont expect some company employee to jump through hoops to solve your problem when you arent even willing to stamp a letter.
A shorter letter is easier to write, and heres your proof.
Sample Complaint Letter
Sally Smith
Director of Consumer Services
XYZ Company
123 Main Street
Anywhere, CA 94111
Dear Ms. Smith:
I am writing to complain about a recent problem I have had with a faucet manufactured by your company. It is the Aireator 5000gf.
The faucet was installed in August 2003 by a professional plumber and worked wonderfully for 12 months. In September 2004, the faucet began leaking while I was out of town traveling. Water damage occurred.
The faucet comes with a No questions asked lifetime guarantee, and that is why I am requesting that XYZ pay the costs associated with the damage caused by your faucet.
My total out-of-pocket expenses came to $854.00, as you can see by the attached receipts. I look forward to hearing from you within two weeks.
Sincerely yours,

Benefits of Using an Automatic Pool Cleaner by Alex Fir
How do you clean your swimming pool? A great number of pool owners clean their pools by hand. However, there is a better way - the use of an automatic pool cleaner.
There are numerous benefits to owning an automatic pool cleaner. In order to understand those benefits, you should first learn about automatic pool cleaners and how they work.
As with many other pool accessories, you will find that automatic pool cleaners come in a wide variety of different makes and models. Regardless of different styles, all automatic pool cleaners achieve the same goal - keep your pool clean and free of debris.
There are two main types of automatic cleaners. These cleaners are frequently referred to as a vacuum cleaner and a pressure cleaner. They work in different ways. Before making a decision as to which type of cleaner you would like to buy, you should quickly familiarize yourself with each.
Automatic pressure cleaners operate in a way that is similar to a pressure washer. High pressure water is used to stir and bring dirt and debris up from the bottom of the pool. Once this debris has been brought up to the surface of the water, it then can be removed through the pools filter.
Automatic vacuum cleaners operate in a way that is similar to traditional vacuum cleaners. Special hoses create suction that is used to lift dirt and debris up from the bottom of the pool floor. These hoses can be connected to the pools filtration system or a special bag can be used to collect the debris.
The pool vacuums that include their own filter bags are frequently known as robotic cleaning systems. This is because they can work without the help of a pools filtration system.
No matter which type of automatic pool cleaner you buy, you will be satisfied with the results. As we said, there are many benefits to using an automatic pool cleaner versus doing it yourself. The most important benefit includes the amount of time you will save.
If you manually clean your own pool, you know that it is a long and hard process. In addition to saving yourself time, you will save yourself money by using an automatic pool cleaner.
Lots of pool owners hire outside help to clean their own pools. This is an excellent way to clean your pool, however, the cost can quickly add up. For a reasonable price, an automatic pool cleaner will do the same job. In actual fact, overtime, an automatic pool cleaner will pay for itself.
The Space Needle Gets a Shower: Karcher to Clean Seattle's Famous Landmark.
NEW YORK, May 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Seattle's best-known landmark and popular tourist attraction is due for a bath. Now, thanks to the cleaning specialists Karcher GmbH & Co. KG, the Space Needle, which hasn't received a professional cleaning since its 1962 World's Fair opening, is expected to be squeaky clean in five to eight weeks' time, assuming Seattle's weather cooperates.
(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080515/NYTH050 )
"We are thrilled that Karcher has generously decided to lend us their environmentally friendly and highly respected services," said Peter Beck, acting CEO at the Space Needle, LLC. "The Space Needle is an important icon and is recognized around the world as a symbol of Seattle -- we are excited to make it shine!"
Karcher, which cleaned Mount Rushmore in 2005, is donating its services in the "green cleaning" of the Space Needle, which opened in 1962 and receives 1.3 million visitors per year. The German-based company's first high-profile cleaning project was the Statue of Christ in Rio de Janeiro in 1980. In 1985, Karcher made its initial foray into the U.S., working with the restoration team at the Statue of Liberty to clean the granite base of the statue with high-pressure washers.
The ecologically friendly cleaning method Karcher developed for Mount Rushmore will also be used at the Space Needle. "The process is one-hundred percent green," says Frank Schad, press officer for Karcher. "The cleaning process, accomplished with very hot water and high-pressure washers, replaces the need for detergents and ensures that the Space Needle is restored to its shining glory when we're done."
A team of three highly qualified rappelling professionals descendsfrom the top of the Space Needle, using only very hot water shot fromhigh-pressure washers as they go. A rope-access safety supervisor mansthe ropes and rappelling equipment from above. Karcher contracted therappelling team, based in Reno, Nevada, from Skala, Inc., whichspecializes in rope-access services throughout North America.
Cleaning via the rope-access technique, Schad notes, was refined when Karcher cleaned Mount Rushmore and avoids having to erect costly scaffolding around the Space Needle, as was done in 1998 when the landmark was last painted. The cleaning is to take place at night, from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. each day, so that the Space Needle can remain open to the public for the duration of the cleaning.
Supervising the entire cleaning project is Karcher's Thorsten Mowes, "an expert who knows everything about dirt," according to Schad. Mowes rappels down behind the team and inspects the cleaned surfaces, thus guaranteeing consistent results for the 605-foot structure. Assisting Mowes in the care of the machines during the cleaning are two Karcher-USA colleagues based in Camas, Washington, near the Oregon border.
The challenges the Karcher team faced in their advance planning, testing and analysis included the unique shape of the Space Needle, the dense cityscape and the proximity of important buildings nearby, particularly the Experience Music Project museum designed by Frank Gehry. Because there are no harmful particles in the excess water, and disposing of the water is in complete compliance with local, state and federal regulations, there is no need to process the water any further. High-pressure washers actually use less water than an ordinary garden hose. Although the spray looks like a lot of water, reducing the diameter of the tube means the water runs thinner yet faster.
"We're using pure water," Schad explains, "so it will drain just fine, even with the dirt it carries away." The surface grime on the Space Needle is comprised of pollution from the city's carbon emissions, bird droppings and plain old dirt.
Another big challenge, Schad says, is cleaning in the dark, the first time the Karcher team has ever done that. Seeing the difference between the cleaned and yet-to-be-cleaned surfaces requires additional light in the form of headlamps. The risk of rappelling in the dark is minimized by using the redundant system of gear in place for all cleaning professionals.
The family-owned Karcher was founded in Stuttgart in 1935 by theentrepreneurial engineer Alfred Karcher. The company first producedelectric heaters and specialized in industrial heating equipment. Withthe development of a submersible heating element, the company'sfuture was sealed, and by 1950 Karcher had designed and patented hisfirst hot-water high-pressure cleaner. The company, which has maintainedits headquarters in Winnenden, near Stuttgart, since 1939, has 6,591employees and a sales volume of 1.38 billion Euros per year.
Coincidentally, Seattle's Space Needle was also first conceived in Stuttgart. In 1959, inspired by Stuttgart's tall TV tower, the first ever of its kind, the World's Fair Commission chairman made a sketch on a coffeehouse placemat; the Space Needle was brought to fruition by the time the 1962 World's Fair opened in April of that year. Constructed by the Howard S. Wright Construction Company, the Space Needle quickly became an internationally known monument.
Karcher decided early on to donate its services in the cleaning of monuments and landmarks both as a goodwill gesture and for the opportunity to receive valuable feedback from workers, officials and scientists involved in the cleaning process. This feedback in turn enhances Karcher's research, development and manufacture of new products, their primary business.
In addition to Mount Rushmore and now the Space Needle, Karcher has donated its services to the cleaning of some 80 historical monuments, including the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin (1990), the Colonnades of St. Peter's Square in Rome (1998), the National Library in Athens (2004), and the more than 3,300-year-old Colossi of Memnon in Luxor, Upper Egypt (2002).
"Cleaning the Space Needle is an honor," Schad adds. "The people of Seattle are rightfully proud of such a national treasure in their midst. Now it will be sparkling clean once again."

Weather definitions - high pressure
A high pressure area is a region where the atmospheric pressure at the surface is higher than surrounding areas. Winds in a high pressure area flow outward from and clockwise around the center in the northern hemisphere. The center of a high pressure area is characterized by subsidence, or sinking air, which aids to restrict the development of precipitation.
High pressure areas are often associated with sunny and dry weather, which can either be cool and dry or hot and dry depending on the season and location of the high. High pressure areas in the northeast and the Capital Region are often associated with cool and dry air, especially when they move south out of Canada.
In the summer months, an area of high pressure can sometimes cause the air to become very stagnant and stale. There is very little wind associated with the center of a high pressure area and when they stay over the same regions for several days, pollution from car exhaust and factory output can cause air quality issues, which can have a negative impact on the population, especially those with breathing difficulties.
High pressure areas are normally a good sign because they often steer away storm systems, especially hurricanes in the summer and fall months. An area of high pressure can often have a significant role in the track of a dangerous hurricane and sometimes works as a savior to keep the storm out to sea and away from any land impacts.
Wind flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure due to density differences between the two air masses. The stronger the difference in pressure between the two areas, the stronger the winds are in between them. This is called the pressure gradient.

The Dolfi Ultrasonic Washing Machine Could Change The Way You Do Laundry
Ah, delicates -- the bane of every person's laundry life. You either have to wash garments by hand, which is rarely a good time, or you run the risk of harming your items by throwing them in the washing machine.
Fear not. A new, portable device called Dolfi has got you covered. At least that's what the creators of the ultrasonic laundry device claim: All you have to do is put your clothing in a sink, fill it with water and detergent, add the Dolfi and turn it on. In 30 minutes, your delicates will be clean. This should definitely help out Millennials, who, according to one study, have the least knowledge of any generation when it comes to laundry skills.
According to its IndieGoGo page, Dolfi uses ultrasonic technology to create sound waves that move through the water and create "miscroscopic high-pressure bubbles." These bubbles then implode to create "millions of micro-jet liquid streams" that wash away dirt. Apparently Dolfi's technology has been developed and tested by engineers at MPI Ultrasonics in Switzerland.
Lena Solis, a lifestyle entrepreneur and the founder of Dolfi, thought of the idea after "a few terrible experiences with laundry" during her travels. "I was desperately looking for a solution to hand washing [garments]," Solis told The Huffington Post. "I've visited most German and Swiss ultrasonic engineering labs and not a single one of them had ever developed consumer products. At that moment, I was all over the idea to redefine the ultrasonic technology for consumer use. And thus the Dolfi was born."
Saving energy was very important to Solis; the Dolfi uses 80 times less energy than a regular washing machine and it is named after dolphins, so a part of the campaign proceeds will go towards dolphin research and welfare.
The early supporter price of the Dolfi is $89 and its estimated delivery is August 2015.
Check out the video below to see the Dolfi in action.

Hidden Hazards of Road Salt: Car Corrosion Can Take a Toll
Published February 04, 2014
With winter in full-force across much of the nation, salt crews have been on the go prepping roadways before, after and during inclement winter weather. Although road salt is essential for safe winter driving, it can also lead to numerous car troubles.
Road salt lowers the freezing point of water, according to Manager of Vehicle Services at Firestone Complete AutoCare Joe Roger.
"It chemically turns that ice back into water so that the car tires can then reach the pavement for traction, instead of just sliding on top of the ice," Roger said.
While road salt is imminent to safe winter driving, it is also extremely corrosive and over time it can cause extensive damage to vehicles.
The biggest threat salt poses to a vehicle is rust, which is accelerated by repeated exposure to salt. Rust on certain parts of a car can create a slew of problems ranging from hydraulic break system leaks to subframe damage.
Due to the construction of a vehicle with most of the underbody being wide open, most salt damage occurs underneath the car and as a result can be difficult to detect visually.
"Underneath most cars is wide open and subject to everything and all of the elements," Roger said. "All of the water and salt that can be kicked up and sprayed up underneath the vehicle are just going to stick, sit there and corrode."
After driving on salt treated roads, many drivers then pull their vehicles into a garage, which allows the ice, snow and salt from the roadways to sit underneath the car and rot away at the car's under components.
This rotting or corrosion can harm the car's exhaust and muffler systems, coil springs and the frame of the car. Damage to the subframe of a vehicle is common in the snow belt areas in the Northeast, according to Roger.
The necessity of road salt makes it hard to avoid these issues but visiting a car wash frequently during the winter months can help car owners battle salt's detrimental effects.
"Go through a car wash that has an under-spray," Roger said. "That will try to reduce the chances that all that salt and salt water will get on the vehicle and start to corrode."
Vehicles can also be taken to a collision shop prior to the winter season to have their vehicles pre-treated with an oil solution under-spray to help fight winter road salt damage.
As driving on road salt is fairly common during the winter months, drivers should be aware of potential damage and never drive a vehicle with a red brake warning light on. This light indicates a low fluid condition and can lead to severe consequences if driven without immediate consultation.
If drivers experience any other maintenance issues involving the brake system during the winter months, immediate attention should be sought after.
While all damages are not necessarily visible, the best way to ensure that a vehicle is and will continue to function properly is to have it checked by a professional before the winter season or whenever it is also due for an oil change.

Elon Musk Moves Forward With Multi-Billion Dollar Hyperloop Idea
Elon Musk's dream of catapulting humans through pods inside a high-speed transportation system called the Hyperloop is one step closer to becoming a reality.
The Tesla and SpaceX CEO tweeted that he plans to build a test track "most likely in Texas" where student teams and companies can test out designs for possible Hyperloop pods.
The billionaire first unveiled his futuristic idea in 2013, calling it "a cross between a Concord, a rail gun and an air hockey table."
He published the 57-page design plan on both Tesla Motors' and SpaceX's blogs as a PDF available for download.
According to Musk's concept, the Hyperloop could carry travelers from Los Angeles to San Francisco in half an hour, easily beating out a costly high-speed rail project.
The Hyperloop is a large pneumatic tube, similar to the system used by some hospitals to transport documents, samples and medications in a more efficient manner. New York City also relied on a network of pneumatic tubes to transport mail during the first half of the 20th century.
Hyperloop sketchFor human travel, Musk plans to mount a large fan to the front of a pod, which would re-direct high pressure to the rear of the capsule, facilitating even higher speeds.
The cost of the project has been estimated to fall between $6 billion and $7.5 billion.
Musk has not only spent his week re-imagining how we may travel in the future, but he is also doing his part to keep humanity safe from a potential robot uprising by donating $10 million to the Future of Life Institute for research on how to keep artificial intelligence safe.
He has previously expressed his concern about robots, saying artificial intelligence has the potential to be "more dangerous than nukes."

Components corresponding to motor measurement, water stream and pump strain distinguish one mannequin from another.
Blood pressure readings typically embrace two numbers given in millimeters of mercury, or mm Hg. The systolic strain reflects the strain during heart contractions, whereas the diastolic stress happens in between heartbeats. Because there's much less have to conserve water, your small blood vessels open up, and blood pressure goes down. It is not the kind, however, the amount of alcohol consumed that impacts the blood pressure.
Microsoft Partially Takes Back Changes To OneDrive’s Storage Caps
Microsoft Partially Takes Back Changes To OneDrives Storage Caps | TechCrunch
Microsoft announced changes today to OneDrive's storage limits, partially undoing unpopular amendments it detailed this November. The new rules include refunds for unhappy customers, more storage for select free users, and in some cases, a free, one-year subscription to Office 365 Personal.
In November, Microsoft made two key changes to OneDrive. I quote from the original announcement [emphasis TechCrunch]:
We're no longer planning to offer unlimited storage to Office 365 Home, Personal, or University subscribers. Starting now, those subscriptions will include 1 TB of OneDrive storage. [...]
Free OneDrive storage will decrease from 15 GB to 5 GB for all users, current and new. The 15 GB camera roll storage bonus will also be discontinued. These changes will start rolling out in early 2016.
As you can imagine, the new policies were roughly as popular as Diet Sprite at a NASCAR event.
Ars Technica was blunt: "Microsoft drops unlimited OneDrive storage after people use it for unlimited storage." Users, excited to have access to a strong free storage tier, and unlimited storage if they were paying Office 365 customers, were disappointed to see their plans change. Perhaps 'disappointed' is too soft a phrase. Read for yourself.
Here's the new language, as quoted from a post from Microsoft on its user forums, concerning OneDrive, storage and the like [emphasis TechCrunch]:
Office 365 Home, Personal, and University subscriptions will continue to include 1 TB of storage. Any subscriber who received additional storage as part of our unlimited offer will keep it for at least 12 months. For anyone unhappy with the decision to not offer unlimited storage, we will offer a full refund.
For customers of our free service who have over 5 GB of content and who are directly impacted by the storage change, we will offer one free year of Office 365 Personal, which includes 1 TB of storage. These customers will receive an email with redemption information early next year.
In addition, for our biggest fans who have been loyal advocates for OneDrive, we are adding a new offer that lets you keep your existing 15 GB of free storage when the changes happen next year. If you also have the 15 GB camera roll bonus, you'll be able to keep that as well. You can sign up to keep your storage at the link below.
So, unlimited is still out, but there are concessions in place for both paying and free users. It's not ideal, but at the same time, Microsoft is working to make amends. Whether the above changes are enough will be a question that its users have to answer.
I suspect that not all will be assuaged.
Cloud Paper, Cloud Losses
There are three competing trends at play in all of this: The declining price of storage; the increasing clip at which we can, as users, accrete data; and competition in the storage market. Lower storage costs allow companies to offer more for less, but as users can now collect data in increasingly dense formats like 4K, we are all generating more data.
That puts tension onto lower-cost storage -- if costs decline as quickly as the amount of data increases, is storage cheaper for companies to provide?
Perhaps not. Microsoft must have gauged its original choice to limit OneDrive storage for both paid and free users because the economics weren't great. I always have a hard time generating pity for companies with tens of billions in cash, but those reserves and future cash flows belong to shareholders, and so other concerns retain weight.
Regardless, Microsoft, instead of announcing changes that might have been palatable, dropped the ban hammer on its own users and is now in repair mode. All companies fuck up, but here Microsoft should have better anticipated consumer reaction. Today's moves, while welcome, are a bit late.
I suspect, and this is merely my view, that Windows 10 is the key driver of OneDrive adoption at the moment. Given that, the growth curve of the storage service may not be too desiccated by this particular brouhaha. The situation, however, remains sticky.
Microsoft, for all its progress on the consumer side of its business, still sometimes treats the hoi polloi as if they were business customers. Something to think about.

Aside from dirt, such high-pressured water also removes fungus, grime, and in many cases deteriorated tile components.
After pressure cleaning is done, the next thing is to switch broken tiles.

Once the pointing procedure is done, the primer coat (often known as the roof shield sealer) is applied. This type of coat is created specifically to stick and penetrate the tile surface of the roof. Moreover, it also serves as a solid base for the succeeding colored membrane coating.
The protective membrane coating, often known as the very first color coat, will then be applied to the tile surface. Usually, an airless spray will be used in using the first color coat, to be able to apply adequate coating basically control over spraying of coat. After the first coat, the second, final colored coat is then applied to the tile surface. It is an additional protection of the roof, besides the fact that it makes one's roof look like brand new.

Bob Vila maps road to home recovery after Sandy
Story highlightsSuperstorm Sandy victims should check for structural damage, Bob Vila says Vila recommends inspecting for flooding, roof damage, mold and yard debrisConsult local and FEMA authorities about home repair guidelinesContact professionals for big repair jobs after assessing the damage to your homeSuperstorm Sandy brought an assault of historic proportions to millions of homeowners in the Northeast this week. Damages are estimated at between $30 billion and $50 billion. As the recovery process begins, residents of the hardest-hit areas should follow the advice of local and state authorities and Federal Emergency Management Agency representatives. As you return to your homes, here are some structural issues to look for and how to address them.
If your home suffered slight to moderate damage -- basement flooding, broken windows, missing roof shingles the storm cleanup may be a little easier but no less urgent. A compromised roof makes your house vulnerable to more serious issues, while anything flooded becomes a potential breeding ground for mold, mildew or rot if not addressed quickly.
Downed power lines are perhaps the biggest risk after a storm of this size. Avoid wading into standing water or going anywhere near ground wires. Just because you have no power in your house doesn't mean there isn't a live current.
Before you do anything, take pictures of any damage, however minor, in case you need them for insurance purposes.
7 health risks after Sandy
Flooded basements
If basement flooding has left 2 or 3 feet of standing water, your first impulse will be to pump the water out quickly. But if you had that much water, the ground around the house may still be fully saturated, increasing the pressure on your home's walls and foundation. This is especially dangerous in old houses with loose stone foundations as opposed to poured concrete. Pump the water out slowly, a foot a day to be on the safe side. Anything that is water-soaked is already damaged, so a day or two is not going to matter. For those with moderate flooding, let your sump pump do its job; pick up additional units if necessary. A wet vac will also offer a handy assist.
Once the water has been extracted, remove everything that you can: water-soaked boxes, furniture and especially carpeting. Open vents and windows and set up fans to promote air circulation through the space. The sooner everything dries out, the lower the potential for mold, mildew and permanent damage. Invest in a dehumidifier to fight dampness and facilitate the drying process.
Floodwater can be filled with any number of contaminants, from sewage and sludge to chemicals, gas and motor oils, so be sure to wear gloves and a mask when you start cleaning walls and floors. You can purchase a disinfectant or create your own solution of to 1 cup bleach per gallon of water. Use a mop and broom to clear out any mud or debris and be sure to remove any obstructions to drains.
If you had drywall in the basement or any room of the house that experienced flooding, it will need to be removed and replaced (same goes for any water-saturated insulation). The chances of it drying out thoroughly are slim, and its potential to foster mold and mildew growth is considerable.
Roof damage
With high winds comes the potential for serious roof damage. The roof is your home's greatest defense against the elements, so even minor damage can create serious problems. Inspect your roof for damaged or missing shingles. They will need to be replaced as soon as possible because the exposed roof deck will be subject to further dampness and moisture, which you don't want as winter approaches. If you had more serious roof damage, consult with a roofing contractor to see how you can protect the interior of your home until a professional repair can be made. Blue tarps offer a temporary solution and may be available through government agencies.
Roof issues can also be evident from inside the house. Check the ceilings for water spots, particularly in rooms upstairs and near chimneys. The presence of water spots suggests that there may be additional roof problems.
Trees and yard cleanup
Major tree damage? The municipality, power company, or emergency services in the area may help clear the way. If you are able to remove fallen branches safely, you should. Leave anything more to a qualified tree removal specialist. He or she will help you determine whether a damaged tree that's still standing can be saved.
If you have shrubs and hedges, they no doubt took a beating, which means pruning may be in order. Most plants are resilient and will be no worse for wear come summer. Clear up any debris that might have collected in the yard, disposing of refuse in accordance with local regulations.
It's going to take a good long while for everything to dry out. But, when the time comes, it will make good sense to power wash the exterior of the house.
One of the most heartening things to come out of any disaster is the support and help of volunteers, neighbors and community organizations. If you weren't personally affected by the storm, think about volunteering to help those in need, particularly the elderly, or support relief organizations such as the American Red Cross.

Troubleshooting Pressure Washer Problems
Pressure washers are highly versatile appliances that are used for various purposes, right from cleaning sticky molds and grease from the walls, to removing dust and mud from vehicle surfaces. Nevertheless, like any other device, they are prone to several problems that requires proper remedies. If you own one, then understanding the main pressure washer parts will help in easy maintenance and repairing of problems.
The three major parts of a pressure washer are - a motor or pump (for drawing water), a pressure hose, and a trigger gun. Proper coordination of these components impart smooth functioning of the pressure washer. A defect in any of the components may result in failure of the machine's operation. In such a case, proper repair at the right time is better before the defect becomes too difficult to handle.
Troubleshooting Pressure Washers
Prior to repairing a pressure washer, always go through the detailed guidelines provided by the manufacturer to understand the working mechanism. The associated problems and repair methods may vary based on the configuration of the model. For example, some machinery generate hot water for better cleaning, some may be fixed units, while others have movable wheels. In addition, the source of energy (gas, petrol, diesel, electric type), pressure levels and nozzle type also differ from one model to another. Following are common problems and tips for troubleshooting a pressure washer.
Low Pressure: This is a major complaint associated with pressure washer appliances. Low pressure may be caused due to many reasons, such as a restricted inlet, worn nozzle, air leakage in inlet, improper fixation of valve seal, limited water, dirty inlet or discharge valves, and leakage in the discharge valve. You can check these parts and diagnose the defective part. Accordingly, you can troubleshoot the problem to increase flow the pressure.
Rough or Fluctuating pressure: Rough or fluctuating pressure is usually a result of either air entering the inlet pipe, or limited water through the inlet or a stuck inlet. For fixing this defect, you can check for any blockage in the inlet pipe and clean the inlet strainer. If the discharge valve is worn out, replace it for increasing the pressure.
No Water Discharge: If the machine operates without discharging water, then there might be obstructions in the discharge valve or nozzle. In such a case, you can remove the nozzle, clean and install it. Exchange the nozzle if it is not working properly. Another possible cause for no water generation may be due to defects in the trigger gun. You can fix it by substituting with a new trigger gun.
Low Pressure at the Nozzle: Low pressure in the nozzle can be a result of inadequate water supply, plugged nozzle, dirty inlet screen strainer, blocked discharge hose, or at times, a lengthy discharge hose. Remove the parts and clean them properly, if necessary replace the nozzle, inlet hose, or other defective parts in order to solve this problem.
Loud Noise in Pump: Loud noise from the pump is caused due to worn out or broken bearings and connecting rods. You can troubleshoot this problem by replacing the bearings and/or rod. If this does not solve the problem, you can consider installing a new pump.
If there is water leakage from the pump manifold, you can repair the pressure washer by replacing either the plunger or packing. This was the process of troubleshooting pressure water problems in brief. Before trying your hands on these repairs, it is advisable to bear in mind, that it is a dangerous appliance that should be handled with care. Regular servicing is advisable to minimize the problems and prevent frequent repair.
Excessive Pressure Cleansing Companies
Power pressure washers are water jet cleaners that might develop into 50 times extra powerful than your garden hose for cleansing numerous forms of indoor and outside surfaces like sidings, driveways, patios, decks, deck furnishings, grills, and even automobiles. These two measurements will provide help to to benchmark and discover the suitable energy stress washers. We shall categorize the strain cleaning machines into three major types, specifically mild weight utilization, medium utilization and heavy usage machines. Apart from the velocity with which you'll be able to complete your cleaning jobs, pressure washers might help the environment too. Even though they deliver water at a stress that may be 20 or extra times that of a garden hose, you'll likely use less water than if you tried to make use of an everyday hose to complete the work. A powerful and reliable electric pressure washer can help you handle numerous forms of cleansing duties effortlessly.
Low water pressure within the kitchen sink is usually a very annoying downside, especially when you are cleansing or cooking. This can generally cause low water strain in a single outlet when other taps are turned on and correct pressure when only one outlet is on. It is because distribution of water additional lowers the pressure. The same can't be said a couple of industrial pressure washer that runs on electrical energy.
I do not think I've seen a football recreation on TELEVISION all season with out seeing a Karcher advert on a invoice board along with the pitch. My local town counsel additionally use high strain washers to take away graffiti and for use as gutter cleaners. Sizzling water high pressure cleaners pressure washers clear faster and extra completely utilizing considerably much less both water and chemical compounds, whereas. Typically, nevertheless, the more pressure the machine delivers, the extra energy it has to raise grime.
Because of our fragmented and turbulent past, when the large industries that outline the South African economic system, like mining, development and manufacturing, largely ignores the nicely-being of their work force, South Africa lags behind the remainder of the world as far as industrial cleanliness is worried. By merely utilising dedicated industrial cleansing tools, corresponding to steam cleaners, excessive pressure cleaners and even vacuum cleaners, potential risks can and will likely be controlled and even averted. The skilled cleaners have in-depth knowledge of cleaning residential and industrial bins.
So, you'll find that an electrically powered stress washer can be restricted to about 2000 PSI (Kilos per sq. inch of compressed water) whereas a gas powered energy washer for business use is perhaps as high as 10,000 and even 20,000 PSI. What I am saying is that to get the job carried out sooner and with cleaner outcomes, buy a machine that has as much water stress and water circulation as you possibly can. I've owned this Simpson PS3228-S PowerShot Pressure Washer for only about eight months, however to this point its stood up to the cleaning tasks we give it most days, very nicely. One of the best factor of all about this pressure washer was its value of only about $500.
It includes a new range of petrol and diesel drive pressure cleaners and a selection of accessories which maximise efficiency and reduce the amount of water, gasoline and time used. When you've tried to take away the dirt out of your partitions, floors and paths earlier than and haven't had any luck with chemical substances, do not surrender- let the professional pressure cleaners in Sydney at Fast Strain Cleaning serve you. While one possibility is to have staff eliminate their very own trash and divide up the rest of the cleansing tasks, many places of work turn to business cleaners to handle the problem for them. Nonetheless, always avoid using floor pads, high pressure cleansing products and high-alkaline cleaners on stained concrete.

You can check these parts and diagnose the defective part. Accordingly, you can troubleshoot the problem to increase flow the pressure.
Rough or Fluctuating pressure: Rough or fluctuating pressure is usually a result of either air entering the inlet pipe, or limited water through the inlet or a stuck inlet. For fixing this defect, you can check for any blockage in the inlet pipe and clean the inlet strainer. If the discharge valve is worn out, replace it for increasing the pressure.
No Water Discharge: If the machine operates without discharging water, then there might be obstructions in the discharge valve or nozzle. In such a case, you can remove the nozzle, clean and install it. Exchange the nozzle if it is not working properly. Another possible cause for no water generation may be due to defects in the trigger gun. You can fix it by substituting with a new trigger gun.
Low Pressure at the Nozzle: Low pressure in the nozzle can be a result of inadequate water supply, plugged nozzle, dirty inlet screen strainer, blocked discharge hose, or at times, a lengthy discharge hose. Remove the parts and clean them properly, if necessary replace the nozzle, inlet hose, or other defective parts in order to solve this problem.
Loud Noise in Pump: Loud noise from the pump is caused due to worn out or broken bearings and connecting rods. You can troubleshoot this problem by replacing the bearings and/or rod. If this does not solve the problem, you can consider installing a new pump.
If there is water leakage from the pump manifold, you can repair the pressure washer by replacing either the plunger or packing. This was the process of troubleshooting pressure water problems in brief. Before trying your hands on these repairs, it is advisable to bear in mind, that it is a dangerous appliance that should be handled with care. Regular servicing is advisable to minimize the problems and prevent frequent repair.

High prices, missed areas, and a tendency to close doors behind them have given robotic vacuums a reputation for being novelties more than necessities. Our tests of three new robotic vacuums show that robovacs are getting better, though one is clearly the best of this trio.
iRobot Roomba 760
The $450 iRobot Roomba 760 is the only model that picked up every piece of paper, all the cereal and sand, and virtually all the rice we laid down on our test carpet. It also found its way out of tight spots and around extension cords. And like the others, you can program it not to run when guests or children are around. A random pattern with more passes over the same spot helped account for its cleaning, though that also meant the Roomba roved around our 12x16-foot test area four to five times longer than the other two before it returned to its charging base.
LG Hom-Bot Square LRV790R
The LG proved to be the quietest and, at $800, the most expensive by far. Instead of cleaning in a random pattern like the Roomba, the LG Hom-Bot Square LRV790R goes back and forth and typically covers a spot just once. A turbo mode kicks in on carpets, while a spot-cleaning mode lets the LG circle over a 4- or 5-foot area for several minutes. But it cleaned less thoroughly than the Roomba, picking up most of the rice and sand but simply pushing around some of the cereal. It couldnt pick up the paper we dropped on bare floors. And it had trouble sidestepping power cords and narrow objects.
Neato XV-21
Contrary to its name, the $400 Neato XV-21 left the most litter behind while making the most noise. Its straight-line pattern picked up all the cereal from bare floorsand most of it from our carpetand got most of the rice and sand. But the Neato couldnt pick up paper. It also tended to trap itself between chair legs and could end up stopping short of its charging base as it ran down.
The bottom line. No robotic vacuum can match the deep cleaning youll get with the best upright and canister vacuums. We also suggest thinking twice about any robotic vacuum if you have shag carpeting or area rugs. Otherwise, consider the iRobot Roomba 760 for its less-lavish price. And consider it only for maintenance between primary vacuuming, not as an alternative to an upright or canister.

Summer Internships: 6 Best Ways to Get One
Last Updated Mar 29, 2010 9:52 AM EDT
The summer internship and summer job outlook looks bleak for college and high school students. Recently, the Wall Street Journal reported that the percentage of 16- to 19-year-olds who'll get summer jobs this year will be even lower than last year's record low 28 percent, according to the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University. Just a decade ago, nearly half landed summer work.
But just because the odds are tough doesnt mean you and your kids should be discouraged it just means you need to have a good strategy and work a little harder. An interns foot in the door can be a giant step toward a real job post-college, and unless the economy picks up speed in a hurry, your children are going to need any advantage they can find as they enter the workforce. The pressure is on and competition is fierce, says Ellen Gordon Reeves, Harvard graduate and author of Can I Wear My Nose Ring to the Interview? Finding, Landing and Keeping Your First Real Job.
Some internships pay, some are unpaid, and some youll pay for, since many colleges now require tuition in exchange for course credit for internships in students chosen fields. We grilled employment experts and recent grads to find out how to beat the odds and land a position. Here, then, is the college students six-step action plan for landing a summer job or internship.
1. Network Strategically
Stop sending your resumes into cyberspace. Its a black hole, says Reeves. To help zero in on the right contact at a place you want to work, figure out who you know who can give you a leg up. Given the competition, you need to make actual contact with a human being to have a fighting chance. Cant think of anyone? Heres where cyberspace can help out: Tweet and post on Facebook: Id love to intern at Sirius Radio. Does anyone know someone who has worked or interned there?
Your web of relationships is the single most powerful tool you have at your disposal when it comes to landing this job and every other job you get for the rest of your life.
University of Michigan senior Corey Friedberg brainstormed with housemates to exchange contacts and skillfully worked his various networks. It has helped me to leverage my relationships, says Friedberg. Ive used every contact, from my father to the recruiters I met on campus. His diligence paid off. As a junior, Friedberg landed a summer internship at Bloomberg Financial in New York City. The company offered him a job after he graduates, but so has an investment bank. Hes going with the bank.
(Parents of teens should network, too. Ask your eighth-grade daughters friends dad if he could talk to your son about internship opportunities at his company. Its just a conversation, not a commitment.)
2. Push Your Passion
Ive always been a political junkie, says Hannah Lloyd, who graduated from Washington University in St. Louis last spring. Lloyd knew she wanted to get into politics after college, so in February 2009 she started applying for House of Representatives internships online and then spent her spring break in Washington, D.C., handing out resumes. I wasnt connected in Washington, but Im very driven and motivated, she says. Lloyd landed an unpaid internship the summer after graduation with Rep. Russ Carnahan, a Democrat from Missouri. The internship led to a paying job as a staff assistant for the Senate Armed Services Committee.
3. Mine the Web
One way to use the web for an internship search is to hone in on the most targeted Web sites for the field you hope to pursue. Alexander Altvater, a Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management major who graduated last year from Clemson University, logged onto the Student Conservation Association site to apply for his summer internship at Congaree National Park in South Carolina. The internship helped propel Altvater into becoming a park ranger for the National Park Service.
The other way is by using a broad database site such as Internships.com, Indeed.com, or, if you want to spend your summer overseas, GoAbroad.com. With these, after you type in the type of internship you want and the location, the site pulls up every match it has. If youd prefer to intern at a nonprofit, try Jobs.change.org, an offshoot of the social entrepreneurship site, Change.org.
4. Research All Your Options
Make a beeline to Web sites of all the companies youd ache to work for, read every word in their job and internship opportunities areas, and then pursue a few prospects relentlessly. Piggyback any networking possibilities and remember: Persistence and virtual pavement-pounding pays.
John Conte, a Penn State senior and captain of the hockey team, began scouring NHL team sites in November of junior year. At the bottom of Tampa Bay Lightning site, he found a lead about an internship. A family friend who worked for the team told him the right person to speak to (see, strategic networking works); Conte ultimately snagged the unpaid gig, along with 19 other interns. The internship ended up costing me money, but this is a business I would love to pursue, he says.
5. Study Up
Before an internship interview, learn how to walk the employers walk and talk the employers talk. At the interview, youll want to look as though youd fit in and dazzle the recruiter with your knowledge about his business and industry.
For his financial firm interviews, Friedberg always wore a black or navy suit, a shirt with French cuffs, and a tie, keeping the campus dry cleaner busy. Lloyd knew she had to dress conservatively to be taken seriously for a Capitol Hill internship, so she wore dark pants, a turtleneck and a jacket.
Friedberg always crammed the week before an internship interview, reading the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times to track the markets and get news about prospective employers. It was definitely very time consuming, he says. But theyd ask you, Where do you think the price of oil is going and why? You either had to nail it on head or look like a fool.
6. Last Resort: Buy One
This may sound ridiculous, but for a fee of $5,000 to $10,000, an outfit called University of Dreams will guarantee to find an unpaid internship in one of eight U.S. cities or six international spots, or it will refund your tuition. The cost includes housing, meals, transportation (other than air travel), weekend trips, seminars, and resume-building instruction. Its almost like a study-abroad program with an internship. Pack a suitcase and fly to London and well cover your entire time there, says Scott Bergner, vice president of marketing. Seventy-five percent of our candidates are being offered positions or being asked to come back and work for the company again, he says.
While the idea of buying an internship sticks in the craw, think of it as an investment. If it results in a job come the spring of 2011, youll have earned a pretty good return.

High-energy coal to help Australia miners steam ahead in Asia | Reuters
* Paris talks to push for cleaner energy, carbon cuts
* But Southeast Asia coal demand expected to triple inlong-term
* Appetite in India also seen growing rapidly
* Australia coal has higher energy content than many rivals
By Sonali Paul
MELBOURNE, Nov 13 As debate swirls around thefuture of coal, Australian miners are counting on the higherenergy content of the coal they dig and proximity to growingAsian markets to give them an edge over rivals and defy a globalpush towards cleaner energy.
With around $35 billion in projects in the pipeline, theworld's No.2 exporter of thermal coal is relying on Asianmarkets using the cheapest source of power even as they try tocontain soaring emissions and choking pollution.
That growth in coal demand comes despite climate changetaking centre stage internationally ahead of U.N. environmentaltalks that kick off in Paris this month, with governments comingunder pressure to do more to cut carbon emissions.
"Eighty years from now when the world's last coal-firedpower plant shuts its doors, it'll be burning Aussie coal," saidMorgan Stanley commodities analyst Joel Crane in Melbourne.
Increased dominance of regional exports would be a boon forminers operating in Australia such as BHP Billiton andGlencore Plc, along with Asian companies that haveinvested heavily in the country like China's Yanzhou Coal MiningCo, India's Adani Enterprises and Japan'sMitsubishi Corp.
Australia's export coal typically has an energy content of6,100 kilocalories per kilogram, compared with 5,130 kcal/kgfrom top global thermal coal exporter Indonesia, making it thebest quality coal located near Asia's growing markets.
That is particularly appealing for Asian buyers looking tofeed newer, less-polluting coal-fired power stations.
"That is why Yanzhou sees this as a strategic long terminvestment, because it is not beholden to what happens inChina," said Reinhold Schmidt, managing director of YancoalAustralia, which is controlled by Yanzhou Coal andoperates nine mines in Australia.
The International Energy Agency expects India to overtakeChina as the world's biggest coal importer in the next fiveyears, projecting Indian coal demand will nearly triple to 1.3billion tonnes a year between 2013 and 2040. It sees SoutheastAsian coal demand more than tripling to 446 million tonnesduring that period.
NOT AN OPTION
The Philippines wants to increase the use of cleaner fuelsbut accepts that rejecting cheap coal is not an option as itseconomy develops, illustrating how Southeast Asia relies on thefuel.
"Market forces dictate how it goes, so you cannot say, 'Oh,don't do coal,'" Philippines energy undersecretary Loreta Aysonsaid in October.
Australia's new prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, hasrejected calls to ban new coal mines, saying it would be betterfor the environment if developing nations that rely on coal forpower-generation use Australian exports rather than dirtieralternatives.
Australia's Greens have described this as a 'drug dealer'sdefence' and want the country to push for global warming to beheld at 1.5 degrees Celsius instead of 2 degrees at the Paristalks.
"We won't do it if (the main political parties) push aheadwith new coal mines," Greens leader Richard Di Natale said in astatement this week.
Australia's overall thermal coal exports are forecast torise 11 percent to 223 million tonnes between 2014 and 2020,according to the country's Department of Industry.
"Although thermal coal prices have been under pressure dueto global oversupply, we believe demand will grow in the medium-and long-term, led by India and Southeast Asia," said anofficial from an Asian company operating in Australia, decliningto be identified due to the sensitivity surrounding rising coaluse. Prices have been mired at eight-year lows.
But others are sceptical about the prospects for coalproducers in the country.
"There will be a market for Australian coal exports for sometime to come, for sure. But it will be at an ever lower priceand profit margin," said Tim Buckley, a director at theInstitute of Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA),which promotes renewable energy.

How to Clean a Deck, with the Power of the Pressure Washer
In order to understand the pressure washer features, it is important we first understand the terms used to rate their cleaning power.
PSI, simply means (pounds per square inch), and is the units of measurement that the industry uses to rate cleaning force of a pressure washer. To help understand exactly what the PSI rating means, look at how it works for us.
1. 1,000 - 1,500 PSI: is a good choice for washing our cars, pick-up trucks, bicycles, lawn mowers, patio furniture and our barbeque grills
2. 1,400 - 1,850 PSI: appropriate to use when cleaning a brick patio, small deck and wood fence.
3. 2,000 - 3,000 PSI: more power for cleaning a large wood deck or washing aluminum or vinyl siding.
4. 2,800 - 4,000 PSI: is by far the best choice for cleaning stained concrete driveways, sidewalks and patios or stripping loose, blistered and flaking paint off the concrete wall, porch and garage floor.
GPM, (gallons per minute) in therating of a pressure washer, is the measurement used to tell us exactly, how much water the pump on the power washer uses every minute we use it when cleaning. The experts agree, the higher GPM rating, the better an electric pressure washer will clean.
CU, (cleaning units) is calculated by multiplying a pressure washers PSI by the GPM. The more CU (cleaning units), a pressure washer cleans much more efficiently. For instance, consider an electric powered pressure washer rated at 1500 PSI and .7 GPM.
To calculate the CU (cleaning units) of a pressure washer, use the 1500 PSI and multiply it by the .7GPM, which equals 1050 CU (cleaning units); now let us compare that to a similar power washer with the same 1500 PSI, but increase the GPM to 1.5.
After we do the math, WOW we discover the CU (cleaning units) increases to 2200 CU, which has more than doubled the cleaning units of the pressure washer with the higher GPM rating, subsequently doubling the pressure washers cleaning capability.
Garden Hose, consider this little fun fact, city water comes into our homes anywhere from five to seven GPM, and somewhere between forty and fifty PSI, rural county water is more often than not less than that. This relates to a whopping, 280-350 CU (cleaning units) available, maximum, if you live in a rural area your water may be less than half that. To check your GPM, use a five-gallon bucket and fill it with your garden hose, see how long it takes to fill the bucket. If the 5-gallon bucket has filled in 60 seconds, you have five GPM (gallons per minute).

Safety and Cleaning Tips for a Pressure Washer
There are some things that may be obvious when using a pressure washer but, there are some things that you just need to know so that you don't hurt yourself.
1. Bleach: Never put bleach of any kind in your pump. Pouring a little bleach directly on a tough spot on concrete is good idea. Keep a push broom with quality bristles ready to scrub the hard to get dirt or stains off of concrete. When working with bleach,please use goggles. The bleach can splash you in the eye and it has the possibility to bleach your eye and you won't be able to see.
2. Wood: When cleaning wood, such as decks and fences, make sure and keep the sprayer at least three feet from the surface to prevent the wood from splitting. Also, use a weaker tip on your wand and spray a small inconspicuous area of the surface your are going to clean to make sure you have the right tip and water pressure before doing the entire job. Always wear goggles just in case the wood splinters and hits the eyes.
3. Windows: When cleaning windows never use a hot pressure washer on them at all during the colder months because, you will risk cracking a window. When cleaning a window spray it down first with the black tip and soap first.
4. Concrete: When cleaning concrete make sure the washer is at least 3,000psi and pumps at least four gallons a minute. Also, when cleaning concrete a hot water cleaner is better for the tougher stains such as oil or grease. Using the correct chemical for the job is also helpful when cleaning this type of surface. Remember, there will be little rocks that can come off the concrete when you are spraying. You might want to wear blue jeans or old work pants and closed toe shoes.
5. Run Water First: Do not turn on or attempt to use a gas pressure washer without first turning on the water. This will keep you from ruining your pump. Also, you will need to press the wand in before you crank the pressure washer so, that it doesn't ruin the pressure washer.
6. Use a low pressure power washer when cleaning siding on a house. It is amazing how much better a home will shine after being pressure washed.
7. Remove all shutters when cleaning a home so, that you can get rid of mildew and any nests that may have formed. Wasps and yellow jackets love to nest behind shutters.
8. Use a gutter cleaning extension, it makes cleaning out gutters a cinch. It has a curve in it so, all you have to do is walk along the gutter and watch the leaves and dirt fly.
9. Avoid spraying plants, flowers, mailboxes or any lighting fixtures. Also, use plastic such as painter plastic to cover bushes, plants and things that you wish to keep away from chemicals. You will especially want to cover bushes and plants if you are pressure washing for a customer.
10. When spraying a house, spray the chemicals from bottom to the top then wash it off at the top and spray it downward. This will help prevent streaking and also allow the dirt and grime to flow downward and off of the house. The surfaces will look cleaner when they dry. Then, if there's rain in the near future that's even better, it can wash the dirt even further away.

How To Use High Pressure Cleaning Safely And Effectively by Shane Austen
High pressure cleaning is the most effective way of cleaning your home, factories and equipments when properly executed. It is able to remove stubborn dirt and grime that normal cleaning procedures are not capable of. It is also an economical cleaning method as its not very wasteful on water and chemical usage is greatly reduced. The following are tips on how to maximize high pressure cleaning benefits safely and effectively.
The safety of the person or persons doing the cleaning must have the foremost consideration. Appropriate safety equipment and harnesses such as goggles, steel-toed safety boots, long pants, and long sleeve shirts must be worn. This is to ensure the body; especially the eyes are protected from harm when using high pressure cleaning equipment. Before starting with the job, protect or cover up nearby electrical equipments, electronic devices and other items that are prone to damage when wet. Ensure all lighting fixtures, electrical outlets and jacks are either removed or completely covered & sealed to make them waterproof. Always remember that the water jet from pressure washers are powerful enough to hurt or even kill, so avoid pointing your pressure washer tip to anyone. Follow the recommendations of the manufacturer when using chemicals or detergents and make sure that they are suitable for pressure washer use. When working on high places, never pressure wash while standing on a ladder.
When working on brick, mortar or concrete walls, initial preparations must be done before it can be pressure washed. Ensure that all nearby windows, doors and openings are tightly closed to avoid water entry to indoor spaces. Cracks must be repaired and electrical wall outlets and fixtures must be sealed or protected from water to avoid damage and electrocution. Some owners might also want their plants, flowers and vegetations to be protected. In areas with very hot and humid weather, mold, algae or mildew growth might be present. A concrete cleaner with anti-mold and mildew properties is effective in removing and preventing future re-growth.
For asphalt driveways, stubborn stains like tire marks, oil and grease are common and the usual surface cleaners might not be able to remove them. Commercial chemicals and detergents that are specially formulated for use in a pressure washer and designed specifically for asphalt must be used.
When cleaning wooden decks and fences, keep in mind that wood can be easily damaged by using too much water pressure, so proceed with caution. Choosing the right detergent or chemical is important for proper cleaning without damaging the wood.
Keeping your gutters and eaves clean and free of debris is very important as clogged and dirty gutters can be costly to repair once damaged. Gutter cleaning is simply a matter of getting on your ladder and scooping out the debris and rinsing. Again, please be reminded not to use pressure wash when working on high places or on a ladder. Use extension poles that will enable you to clean high and hard to reach places. While youre at it, check and ensure that your gutter system has no standing water as this can serve as a breeding place for mosquitoes.
FUEL PROBLEMS WITH 2000 CHEVY IMPALA...?
I'm having problems with my wife's 2000 Chevy Impala. For a few weeks the car has been sputtering or idling weak, and the other day it finally broke down. The engine will turn over but it dies as soon as it cranks up. Acts like the car is out of gas. However, if I give the car gas while I'm trying to crank it and hold the gas down after it turns over, it will spit and sputter, but stay on for a second.
I left the car alone for a few hours and came back and it cranked right up and I drove it about a mile or two with no problems. It's been driven a couple times since then, and today it broke down again. I replaced the fuel filter on the car. It took me about an hour and a half. I cranked the car up and seemed to be running fine, but it may have just been because it sat for an hour and a half. On the way home, it stalled while I was driving down the road and would not crank back up.
So I've eliminated the filter as the problem, unfortunately. I also checked the air filter to see if I had a problem there and it was fine..
Wondering if there are any other possible solutions. I've read that when the fuel pump is going out, letting it sit for a few hours and cooling down will make it start working again for a while. That is one option. Or, I've also read the fuel pump regulator could be the culprit.
Plugs and wires were changed about 4 months ago..
No check engine light or anything. Car just acts like it's out of gas. (It's not lol) But it spits and sputters like it is unless I let it sit for an hour or two, and then it runs fine for a while, which is what lead me to believe it was a problem with fuel getting to the engine.
My father in law has the Car MD device and he plugged it up and it gave us 3 or 4 new possible problems.
The Error Code was P0303.
It said:
"Definition -- Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected"
"This fault code indicates the Misfire Monitor has detected that a misfire in Cylinder 3 was detected. The vehicles computer continuously checks for engine misfires and identifies the specific cylinder or cylinders in which the misfire occurred. The Misfire Monitor continuously checks for engine misfires. A misfire occurs when the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder does not ignite properly due to the absence or incorrect proportions of spark, air and fuel in the combustion chamber."
Possible Causes:
* Air leak in the intake manifold, or in the EGR or PCV system
* Base engine mechanical fault that affects only Cylinder 3
* Fuel component fault on Cylinder 3 (e.g., restricted fuel injector)
* Ignition system problem (coil, plug) that affects only Cylinder 3
However, this doesn't really feel like an electrical problem. That's why I feel like the fuel injector is the most likely answer to this problem out of these listed..
They include:
plugs and wires (which we've ruled out)
the ignition coil?
and the injectors.
The injectors are a decent possibility because I've noticed she hadn't kept her engine very clean before we were married. A lot of leaves and debris had gathered around the fuel rail and injectors. and a lot of it had been burnt up and turned almost to dirt. I took a shop vac to it and got as much as I could, not sure if any of it could have seeped into the injectors.
Maybe i should just try taking the injectors apart and spraying some carb cleaner down there first? Would that fix it?
I am by no means a mechanic. And I've found so many different possibilities to this problem, that I don't even know where to start. Any insight would be helpful.. Thanks guys..

Baroreceptors are physiologic units that measure the pressure in your aortic arch and carotid arteries.

Natural Alternatives to Treat Seasonal Sneezing
Average:
Your rating: None Average: 4 (3 votes)
While most of us enjoy the green grass and flora of the summer months, about 20% of the population will struggle to some degree with watery eyes and bouts of sneezing. Hay fever, or allergic rhinitis, is caused by an allergic reaction to tree and/or grass pollens, and the accompanying symptoms are usually experienced with the change of seasons. If you begin to experience symptoms in early spring, chances are you're reacting to tree pollens. If you acquire a sneezing habit during the summer months, you're probably allergic to grass and weed pollens. If hay fever attacks begin in mid-March and last through late November, you're probably allergic to airborne fungus particles.
An allergic response is driven by excessive amounts of inflammatory agents (referred to as "mediators") being released from tissue mast cells. When an allergen is introduced, its offending particles bind to antibodies produced within the mast cells which promote a defensive response. The mast cells then produce and release inflammatory chemicals, such as histamine, which cause bronchial constriction, mucus discharge, and other familiar symptoms, in an attempt to rid the body of the allergen. One might be tempted to think that a person suffering from hay fever has a faulty immune system, but actually it's a sign that the person's immune system is working overtime. In fact, according to Andrew Weil, M.D., an allergy is really an example of "misplaced immunity." Dr. Weil also believes that an allergic reaction to airborne particles is a learned response of the immune system. In his book, Natural Health, Natural Medicine (Houghton Mifflin, 1998), Dr. Weil contends that, "The goal of treatment should be to convince the immune system that it can coexist peacefully with these substances. Conventional medicine does not achieve this goal."
Antihistamines (and sometimes steroids) are the conventional course of treatment for seasonal allergies. However, antihistamines merely suppress physical symptoms and fail to address the underlying cause. Allergy, and asthma for that matter, can often be attributed to common food allergies, a malfunction in fatty acid metabolism, or even low stomach acid. Many people are under the impression that antihistamines inhibit the production of histamine, as the generic name suggests. But according to Michael Murray, N.D., "Antihistamines do not block the release of histamine. Instead, they block the action of histamine at receptor sites." They also perpetuate a cycle of immune over-responsiveness, allergic reaction, and a need for more medicine to alleviate symptoms. Furthermore, these powerful synthetics invade the brain and nervous systems to produce unpleasant side effects ranging from drowsiness to depression. For some people (as is the case with this writer), antihistamines can cause even more alarming and potentially dangerous symptoms, such as extreme excitability and heart palpitations.
Are there natural alternatives to treating seasonal allergies? There are indeed. Adhering to a healthful diet, making any necessary lifestyle changes, and implementing the following herbs can help bring the relief you seek in a safe and effective manner. As with any medication, botanical or otherwise, before pursuing a course of self-treatment, always consult your physician if you are pregnant, nursing a baby, or being treated for any serious condition.
Nettle (Urtica dioica): Many people swear by nettle for relieving hay fever, including Dr. Weil, who uses the herb himself. In 1990, the National College of Naturopathic Medicine in Portland, Oregon, conducted a double-blind study of the efficacy of a freeze-dried preparation of stinging nettle on allergic rhinitis. The group treated with the nettle preparation fared moderately better than their placebo-treated counterparts. A decoction made of the leaves or roots is said to ease bronchial constriction.
Oddly enough, another species of nettle (U. urens) is quite the allergen in itself. The plant and stinging hairs of this species contain high levels of both leukotrienes and histamine.
Ephedra (Ephedra sinicia): The Chinese species of ephedra, commonly called mahuang, has been used to treat various inflammatory disorders for more than 5,000 years. The active constituent of the herb is ephedrine, an alkaloid proven effective in treating hay fever and even mild to moderate asthma. Today, a synthetic version of this alkaloid, pseudoephedrine, can be found in numerous non-prescription cold and allergy preparations. Prolonged use of the herb, however, can interfere with adrenal gland function and its therapeutic benefit will decline. For this reason, ephedra is best used in combination with one or more of the herbs suggested here, or under the careful watch of a qualified health care practitioner. It should also be noted that ephedrine raises both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and may be unsuitable for certain individuals.
Angelica (Angelica sinensis): Angelica, also known as dong quai, is another popular herb in Chinese medicine and has a long history of use. Studies on the effects of angelica extract on antibody production reveal a decrease in allergic antibody production levels, which can be up to ten times greater than normal in allergy sufferers. Fewer antibodies result in the reduced production and release of anaphylaxis from mast cells, another mediator akin to histamine. It is believed this action is due to the presence of coumarins.
Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra): In the late 1950s, researchers determined that the action of licorice is comparable to cortisone in that it stimulates the adrenals, inhibits inflammation, and relieves symptoms of allergy, but without the harmful effects from commonly prescribed steroids. Another mechanism of licorice is to increase the half-life of cortisol (a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands), thereby increasing its anti-inflammatory action. Like angelica, licorice also contains coumarins, agents with a demonstrated ability to suppress mediator release from mast cells.
Habitual use of licorice can result in a loss of potassium, and it may be necessary to supplement the diet or increase the consumption of potassium-rich foods. Another consideration is that the habitual intake of licorice can promote the retention of sodium.
Chinese Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis): This herb contains high levels of flavonoids that behave similarly to disodium cromoglycate, a drug often prescribed for asthmatics. The principal action of these flavonoids is to deter the production of leukotrienes, the presence of which promotes bronchial constriction 1,000 times greater than histamine.
Flavonoids (sometimes called bioflavonoids), are a group of compounds common to most plants and to which many fruits and vegetables owe their color. Of particular interest is quercetin, a flavonoid that prevents the production of histamine and other inflammatory agents. Flavonoids offer the added benefit of protection from free-radical damage. Flavonoids can be found in significant levels in many herbs (including licorice), onions, garlic, parsley, legumes, citrus fruits, and berries.
If you consume animal products, you may want to consider eating less meat or, if possible, switching to an all vegan diet during the months ahead. At the very least, cutting down on dairy products during this time will help. As previously mentioned, leukotrienes produce a good deal of allergy response, even more so than histamine. Leukotrienes are synthesized by the presence of arachidonic acid, a fatty acid derived exclusively from animal products.
One last word... If in spite of trying every natural avenue to eliminateor at least reduceyour seasonal allergy symptoms, you may benefit from a visit to your health care practitioner to discuss the possibility of having insufficient stomach acid. The presence of enough hydrochloric acid (HCI) and pepsin are crucial for proper digestion and mineral absorption, and may play a direct role in overcoming allergies. Studies have shown that asthma and allergy sufferers tend to have low levels of HCI but show improvement with supplementation. Note: supplementation of HCI should only be administered by a qualified health care practitioner.
The following dosages are recommended:
Ephedra: 1 to 2 tsp dried herb steeped in boiling water for 10 minutes and taken as a tea 3 times per day, or the capsule equivalent of 12.5 to 25 mg ephedrine.
Licorice, angelica, nettle, and Chinese skullcap:
-1 to 2 grams dried root, prepared as a tea
- 1/4 to 1/2 tsp fluid extract in 1 cup water
- 250 to 500 mg in capsule form

Aluminium Window Restoration by Chris Vernon
If you have old aluminium windows and you want a colour change but don't want to replace them, don't worry, there is a cost effective solution to achieve the colour change you want without replacing them. That's aluminium window restoration.
There are two steps to the aluminium window restoration process. First, painting your aluminium window frames in the colour you want, and second, carrying out a complete mechanical overhaul so that your old windows doesn't only look new but also work like new that glides easily upon opening.
The Aluminium window painting process creates a highly durable finish that resembles the factory finish of new powder coated aluminium window frames. However, this process can only be achieved by employing a highly knowledgeable, skilled and specialized painter in spray painting using HVLP spray gun equipment and poly urethane two pac paint application.
Simply painting your window frames with acrylic or oil based paint enamels using a brush will not achieve the same quality finish as spray painting does. The use of single pac paints is also an issue due to durability.
The 3 steps in the aluminium window restoration process are:
1. Preparation. Preparation is what takes the greatest amount of time and there is the temptation from tradesmen inexperienced in two pac spray painting application and the DIY home renovator to take short cuts. Often the short cuts are a result of lack of knowledge rather than being lazy. However the end result of not carrying out the correct amount of preparation is a less durable poor quality finish.
2 Paint application For two pac paint application, it's important that the substrate is free from any dirt, grease or grime build up. The outside of your windows frames can be cleaned using a non-salt based soapy water and a sponge. To be carefully rinsed with fresh water or water pressure cleaner. But, this can't be done on the inside so you can use a solvent wash such as prepsol. A solvent wash can be used on both sides. Use a commercial grade scour pad to apply the solvent. Before you wash down the inner frames, it is best to vacuum the inside tracks first to remove any dust or bug build up.
The wipe on wipe process of cleaning is important. Apply the solvent with a clean cloth in small sections because it evaporates quickly. The problem though is that the residue containing dirt and grime will remain unless you quickly wipe it off using another dry, clean cloth.
Keying up the surface by sanding is probably the most tedious part but very important. Use 120grit for chalky powder coated surfaces, 240 grit for non chalky powder coated surfaces, and 60 grit for anodized surfaces. It is imperative that the anodized surfaces are aggressively attacked and keyed up properly. Using 80 grit and lighter on anodized surfaces is a waste of sand paper and your time.
Mask and protect of all rubbers that hold the glass in place. Protecting the glass itself and all surrounding finished surfaces from overspray during paint application is critical. Skip on this process and you will have an expensive cleanup bill.
A three coat two pac paint application is recommended by the major paint manufacturers. The first coat is a light primer coat (single pac etch primer is recommended) which should be left to dry for at least 30 minutes more or less depending on the temperature and humidity. When dry, apply two medium to thick top coats. However, it is recommended to apply four light coats consecutively, having time intervals between coats for tack off to occur. This allows solvents to evaporate and the paint starts to go tacky to the touch.
3. Mechanical overhauling. Once painted and all masking is removed, the mechanical overhaul can begin. This includes replacement of all window and sliding door rollers, installation of new weather felts to stop window rattle at the openings, and checking of window latch springs and installation of new springs so that latches can be centred. Complete replacement is done when no replacement springs are available. Sliding door handles can also be replaced.

In janitor contract talks, ABM takes the lead in placing profits over people - Columbus Community Issues
After promising negotiations between Columbus janitors and cleaning contractors ended a strike at the Lazarus building last week, contract talks broke down again on Monday when ABM Industries took the lead in refusing to support full-time, family-sustaining jobs.
Steve Palm-Houser
The Columbus Area Service Contractors Association, which represents seven companies who clean downtown office buildings, want the majority full-time workforce to be slashed to majority part-time. This would drastically cut janitors' wages and disqualify most of them from company-provided health insurance.
A Columbus Dispatch editorial blames the janitors' predicament on the Affordable Care Act, which increases some employers' obligations in providing their workers with health insurance. The Dispatch also attacks SEIU Local 1, arguing that the janitors' union is hurting its own members by supporting the ACA.
Melanie Harvey exposes the Dispatch's specious reasoning in her letter to the editor: "Cutting full-time workers to part-time to avoid buying health insurance is not a decision forced by the Affordable Care Act. It's a choice made by companies that want to have profits safely in their pockets rather than provide for basic needs of the people who perform the labor so the company can keep making money."
ABM can well afford to share some of its high profit margin with its workers in the form of health care benefits. Its refusal to do so reflects on its corporate values, not on the health care law.
The Fortune 1000 companies who own or lease the buildings where the janitors work are also complicit in their struggle. These corporations are in a position to pressure the cleaning contractors to treat their workers fairly. They could also make this easier for the contractors by paying them more for their services. That fact that they haven't can only mean one thing: they care only about keeping their costs low and their profits high. The janitors be damned.
ABM provides cleaning services for Nationwide, Fifth Third Bank, and PNC Bank.
"We work hard. All we want is respect and better jobs for our families. We came to the table hoping to reach an agreement with our employers," said Claude Smith, an ABM janitor and member of the bargaining team. "But we left disappointed that ABM, a rich corporation, refuses to support good jobs for our city."

Wash the Metal with SoapBefore beginning, wear safety goggles. Clean the metal free of any grease first, by loading your pressure washer's soap injector.

Best Wood Cleaner for Decks and Cedar Siding
Eco Paint Specialist's Painting Contractor of Denver/Aurora, painting the Front Range of Colorado with over 32 years exp. recently learned something new & exciting wishing to share with all.
Not only painting, but cleaning, power washing, pressure cleaning decks, fences, and Cedar Sided homes is a key area of expertise with most painting contractors, especially in the Colorado market. Many homes in the Colorado market have either or a deck, a wooden fence, and or wood in a semi-transparent stain. Leaving untreated, this wood will grey and blacken to later deteriorate over time, in that order. Getting grey out of the wood is and has been quite easy over the years with a wide variety of deck and wood cleaner products available on the market today. Most cost an average of $12.00 per gallon, some being concentrate, making 5 gallons of wood cleaner which can be sprayed out of a garden sprayer, or as we've administered, out of our power washers using a low pressure siphon. All products require a bit of elbow grease, after applying, scrubbing into grain, then pressure cleaning off after approx. 15 minutes.
We contracted with a homeowner in Littleton Colorado recently, doing the same thing. Our customer informed us they ran off and fired previous painting company, as they could not get Cedar Siding clean enough for the owner's acceptance. Walking the exterior, I could see uncleaned portions, and others extremely clean, where the homeowner told me the very clean lower, small sections, testing out Oxi-Clean. Somewhat embarrassed seeing a homeowner doing a far better job than a paint company, he told me the other company refused to use what he had suggested. Suggesting Oxi-Clean, I too thought, we'll give it a try if all else fails. Not coming out short handed, we brought out a full array of wood cleaners from Sherwin-Williams to Behr. Power washing 3 and 4 times, nothing would clean near as good as one time with Oxi-Clean. Applying as normal, then scrubbing into wood with a large floor sweep broom, letting it stand, you could watch the black oozz out of the pours of the Cedar, then hitting with high pressure, cleaning like no bodies business. Homeowner called me after work the first day with extreme pleasure and gratification.
This Cedar home, quite large is a great undertaking no matter what type of exterior work is involved, being well over 4500 sq. ft. Thinking how much money was saved on cleaners, bleaches, labor hours, and other chemicals getting the black out of this Cedar Siding is anybodies guess, we used approx. 8 boxes of Oxi-Clean ($9.99 per.bx) Detergent over the complete exterior over one day, making this like a brand new Cedar Sided home, ready for stain.
Oxi-Clean states it has 101 uses on box, being very "Versatile", one of them cleaning decks and fences. This was not known until now, wishing to relay my findings to all in the Cleaning of Decks, fences, and Cedar Siding getting the black out, making like new once again, with the least amount of effort and material costs.
Inspecting after cleaning, we f0und a small section of siding that was beyond repair, having curled up, leaving gapeing holes where snow, ice and rain could find it's way behind siding, next to roof line. Replacing a section approx. 12' X 12'
Letting this home dry back out over 3 days, we applied a Sikkens SRD Translucent Cedar Stain, spraying and back brushing into grain for an even uniform finish. Keeping up the maintenance with a re-coating of stain on a regular basis, this Cedar will never undergo an intense cleaning again.
Is it better to pressure-wash moss off a roof when it is wet, or dry?
Should I do it after it's been raining hard for some days? Or after a week of dry weather?
I am aware of the risks of using a pressure-washer on an asphalt-shingled roof, I will be careful, low-pressure, and only aiming downhill (not uphill nor sideways which would damage the roof).
I am aware of other solutions (zinc strips, zinc powder, bleach, hydrogen-peroxide, detergent, etc.), and I will be using them as well, later. But for now, my mind is made up to use the pressure-washer.
Is it better (easier to remove) when the moss is soaking wet, or dry? Thanks!
5 Things to know about the House-Senate No Child rewrites
5 Things to know about the House-Senate No Child rewrites - Yahoo News
WASHINGTON (AP) -- No one thinks it'll be easy, but the House and Senate are embarking on negotiations to merge two differing education bills that would rewrite the nation's much-criticized No Child Left Behind education law.
On Thursday, the Senate overwhelmingly approved its version of the education legislation, a week after the House passed a more conservative measure.
For years, Congress has tried to update the law. It expired in 2007, though its mandates remained in place. Critics have complained there is too much testing and the law is too punitive for schools deemed to be failing. The Obama administration began issuing waivers to dozens of states to get around some of the law's strictest requirements when it became clear they would not be met.
Here are five things to know about congressional efforts to replace No Child Left Behind:

FILE - In this July 8, 2015, file photo, Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., looks to members of the media a ...
THE SIMILARITIES
Both the House and Senate bills seek to significantly lessen the federal role in the nation's public schools.
Both would maintain the federally required annual tests in reading and math in grades 3 through 8 and once in high school, as well as science tests given three times between grades 3 and 12. The bills return to the states the power to determine whether and how to use those tests to assess the performance of schools, teachers and students -- instead of having federally prescribed school improvement plans.
Another area of agreement: the Common Core academic standards.
The bills say the Education Department may not mandate or give states incentives to adopt or maintain any particular set of standards, such as Common Core. The Common Core standards were drafted by the states with the support of the administration but have become a rallying point for those who want a smaller federal role in education.
____
THE DIFFERENCES
The biggest difference in the two bills has to do with school choice and funding.
The House measure, sponsored by Rep. John Kline, R-Minn., includes so-called portability. It allows federal money to follow low-income children to public schools of their choice instead of current law, which has those dollars remain at the struggling schools.
Democrats do not support the idea, and the Obama administration has made clear it won't back the House bill. Lawmakers voting on the Senate bill, sponsored by Republican Lamar Alexander of Tennessee and Democrat Patty Murray of Washington, rejected the idea of adding portability to their measure.
____
THE WHITE HOUSE
The White House has threatened to veto the House measure. After the Senate version passed Thursday, Education Secretary Arne Duncan offered lukewarm praise for the Alexander-Murray bill.
Duncan and several civil rights groups had urged lawmakers to strengthen the accountability measures in the bill, but an amendment that aimed to do that was rejected by the Senate. It would have required states to identify the lowest-performing 5 percent of schools, public high schools where two-thirds or fewer students are graduating on time, and public schools where poor, disabled, minority, or English-language learning children were not meeting state achievement goals. States and schools would then have to design plans to turn around the schools.
Duncan pressed for changes once the bill goes to conference "to strengthen the bill before it reaches the president's desk."
____
THE VOTES
The Senate voted overwhelmingly for its education rewrite, by a vote of 81-17.
Fourteen Republicans voted against it, including presidential hopefuls Ted Cruz of Texas, Marco Rubio of Florida, and Rand Paul of Kentucky.
While it had the support of almost all Democrats, three voted against it: Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, New Jersey's Cory Booker and Chris Murphy of Connecticut.
The House vote was more partisan, 218-213. No Democrats supported the measure and 27 Republicans voted against it.
____
NEXT STEPS
Negotiating a compromise. The Senate and House will have to find consensus and merge the two bills.
After the Senate vote, Alexander, who chairs the Health, Education, Labor and Pension Committee, said, "There are some issues that are different, but I foresee a successful conference."
Said Kline, who chairs the House Education and the Workforce Committee, "There is a lot of work that lies ahead, but I am confident we will find common ground and send a bill to the president's desk."

Why Choose Laminate Flooring?
Rotary flooring floor cleaners are a preferred alternative for a lot of strain cleaning contractors. The commercial cleaning tools has a stress degree of seven hundred PSI and movement price of 3 GPM. The ability rich cleaning gear has a pressure stage of one thousand PSI and a flow price of four GPM. Contemplating a stress stage of 1500 PSI, a movement fee of 5 GPM, and steaming temperatures as high as 330°F, the equipment delivers superior cleansing power. The Tremendous Max 15800 is a robust pressure washer that's powered by http://www.its-africa.co.za/karcher-professional-high-pressure-cleaners.php an electric motor and could be heated utilizing no. 1 or no. 2 heating oil, diesel, kerosene, pure gasoline, or propane. The electric pressure cleaning system offers a stress level of 2000 PSI and a move charge of four GPM.
When the trigger of the siphon blaster is pressed, the nozzle is activated, and the high stress and quantity passing by means of the venturi of the deal with, results in the suction of media and air by means of the hoses. Though siphon sandblasters are low-cost and simple-to-make, there are some key disadvantages related to it. The siphon blaster nozzles are bigger than strain blaster nozzles. There is a massive quantity of air that's required for sucking the abrasive materials from the hopper which in turn makes it a lot slower than a regular stress sandblaster. In contrast to siphon sandblasters, stress sandblasters, blast 4 occasions sooner, and are thus more practical for giant productions.
Stress washers can be utilized for something from cleansing your car, to cleaning your patio, to eradicating dust and paint from ironwork as preparation for re-painting. The two predominant uses of pressure washers are cleaning (every part from patios to cars to garden instruments to driveways) and paint preparation (helping in eradicating old paint from iron and wood work). How portable you need your stress washer to be. Whereas most models do include inbuilt handles, high specification models can get heavy.
Add to that their wonderful status for customer service and assist after the sale and I'm offered on AR Blue Clear. Will likely be buying the stress washer and fittings by you so you get the fee.... and I NEVER do this. Using ear safety is highly advisable when working around gasoline pushed strain washers. An injury to the physique by stress better than 100 psi (kilos per sq. inch) is taken into account an injection harm by the CDC. It is usually argued that solely certain forms of alcohol drinks cause the blood pressure to rise.
Stress cookers manufactured without adhering to sure definite standards are potential explosive gadgets and must never be used. Rotary Jet cleaners restore block paved, tarmac, flag stones, slabs or concrete, driveways, paths or patios to appear to be new. Along with a really powerful stress jet washer they'll take away the most cussed grime from any surface. Often all it needs is stress washing (blast cleansing) to return it to as good as new. Excessive strain sizzling water dispersed from a single lance will remove gum bit by bit. That is one other strain washer that falls into the electric stress washer class.

Another simple and clinically proven technique for lowering blood pressure without drugs is called "hand grip isometrics." Isometrics are when a muscle is tensed but without moving. For example, if you make a fist with your hand and squeeze - that's an example of an isometric exercise.
In the late 60's, the US Air Force commissioned studies to find ways to combat the "tunnel vision" and "blackout" experienced by pilots during high G-force maneuvers. One technique researched was the use of isometric hand-grips. When the test subjects squeezed a control stick, their blood pressure would spike, thereby increasing blood flow to the brain and preventing loss of vision and consciousness.
One of the researchers, Dr. Ronald Wiley, a cardiopulmonary physiologist at Miami University (Oxford, OH), made a very unexpected observation when looking over the data after the study: While blood pressure spiked during the isometric exercises themselves - overall resting blood pressure went down.
In research published in the American College of Sports Medicine, people that did hand-grip isometrics had average blood pressure reductions of 12.5 systolic and 14.9 diastolic.
Science aside, isometric hand-grip exercises are also really relaxing - and so easy to do. One trick is to take a face cloth or hand towel and roll it into a "jelly roll." Make two of them, one for each hand.
Next, squeeze hard on them for a second and get a feel for your "100% squeeze pressure." Now, try squeezing at about 30% of that 100% pressure - that's the "sweet spot" for best results - 30% of your "max squeeze pressure." The goal here is to allow your forearm muscles to work - but not to overdo it to the degree that your blood pressure spikes.
Now, you simply alternate squeezing (always at no more than 30% of your full strength) and relaxing, squeezing and relaxing. There are many variations on how long to "squeeze" and how long to "relax." In the study cited above, the participants would: squeeze for 2 minutes; rest for 3 minutes; and repeat this four times, for a total of 20 minutes per session; 3 days a week.
In most people, it takes a few weeks to get the deepest benefits from isometrics. Also, when you quit doing them, your overall blood pressure will tend to creep back up to where you were before - you have to stick with it for it to work.
Another powerful technique is to mix Guided Breathing with these isometric exercises. For example, you can slowly squeeze as you inhale, hold the squeeze while you hold your breath, and then slowly release your grip during your exhale.
You can get free Guided Breathing audio samples to try this right now at: www.LowerBloodPressureDrugFree.com.
Beyond lowering blood pressure permanently in the majority of people, this technique is also great for cutting stress, migraines, and more. I can't resist the chance for a pun here: The secret to natural blood pressure control is... in the palm of your hands.
As always, check with your physician before doing this or any other form of exercise - especially if you have any cardiovascular issues.

Amped, New Synthetic Drug Used to Get High
Amped, a new type of synthetic drug that falls into the street category of "bath salts," is being used by people in Virginia to get high, and likely in other parts of the country as well.
The drug is touted as a ladybug attractant, but at least six cases of people ingesting the chemical compound have been reported in Eastern and Central Virginia, according to Dr. Rutherfoord Rose, director of the Virginia Poison Center.
Amped is only the latest of these bath salts to hit the web and convenience stores. Others, such as "Zoom," Cloud Nine," and "Ivory Wave" are similar recreational drugs that have amphetamine-like qualities. They increase blood pressure and heart rate, and many people have experienced paranoia, violent behavior, hallucinations and delusions while high, Rose said. Some users have even committed suicide while on the drug.
"Despite laws that have outlawed certain chemicals within these drugs, chemists easily change a chemical or molecule within the compound to give it a similar or more potent property, and, because it is a different chemical entity, it is no longer illegal," said Rose.
The drugs are often disguised as incense, plant foods and cleaners. They carry warning labels that caution against human consumption, and the label notes the illegal ingredients that are not in the compound, but it does not actually list the ingredients that are in it.
People can smoke, snort or even inject the bath salts. On one website that sells the bath salt, a one-gram container costs $34.95.
In 2011, the American Association of Poison Control Centers said there were 6,138 calls regarding exposure to bath salts, up from 304 in 2010.
"This is becoming a public health problem," said Rose. "These street chemists are probably getting three or four more products ready to come out for when the other ones go off the market or get outlawed. Unless we get smart enough to outlaw all the chemicals at one time, this is just going to continue on."
What the people taking these drugs don't understand, Rose said, is that the chemicals can easily put a person in the emergency room or even kill. Unless patients can articulate exactly what they took, it is difficult for emergency department physicians to figure out what exactly has been ingested. And even with the name of specific bath salts, the brands often test differently with different chemical compounds in different parts of the country.
"These drugs are a time bomb," said Rose. "It's like playing Russian Roulette."
How to Remove Wine Bottle Labels
Recycling the bottles from last year's home wine kit and reusing the interesting and beautiful bottles from various purchased vintages both cuts the cost and adds to the fun of a new wine making kit.But vintners use several types of adhesive to fasten their labels, and some of them are difficult to remove. Some wine bottle labels are made of paper, while others are vinyl, foil, or plastic film. According to International Paper's Knowledge Center, there are three basic types of adhesive used on labels:
Dry gum or water-based adhesives. This is the type usually found in wine making kits; they must be moistened before application. When the adhesive dries, it sticks.Rubber based adhesives. These have "good quick tack and initial peel but will break down under extended exposure to UV light."Acrylic based adhesives. "Generally repositionable when the label has been first applied to a surface but will form a bond after a period of time."The latter two adhesives are often pressure-set (peel off the backing and press in place) or heat-set adhesives. Dry gum and pressure-set labels are commonly used in home wine making kits.How to Remove Wine Bottle LabelsThe wine bottles should be soaked for about 15 minutes in hot water with a little dish soap. This will soften the label and adhesive.Labels fastened with dry gum will simply float free. Any remaining adhesive residue may then be washed off with clean soapy water.

While household tip books and cleaning web sites recommend everything from nail polish remover (acetone) to paint thinner, the following three products have consistently produced good results for wine bottles. All require a little "elbow grease" but they do work.
Rubbing Alcohol (isopropanol) - Probably the most effective solvent (and safer than acetone and paint thinner) for removing wine bottle label gunk. Use in a well-ventilated area. Wet a cloth or paper towel with alcohol, press wet cloth against the adhesive for a a few seconds, then rub.Goo Gone - This commercial cleaner from Magic American Products of Cleveland, Ohio is designed to remove grease, gum, stickers, crayon and much more. It does a decent job on many types of adhesive used on wine bottle labels.WD-40 - Although mainly used as a lubricant, this well-known product contains solvents that dissolve many adhesives. Spray on, allow to set for five minutes, then wipe off. Works, but leaves the bottle slick and slippery, so handle with care.Cut Costs and Recycle Wine Bottles

Clean your way to a thinner waist - National heart health
Memphis, Tenn. (Jan. 21, 2015) - This February, Merry Maids, the nation's leading home cleaning company and part of the ServiceMaster (NYSE: SERV) family of brands, is encouraging consumers to "get moving, start cleaning and be heart healthy" by showing some love to their homes and to themselves through the physical activity of cleaning. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), one of the best ways to reduce the risk of heart disease is through regular physical activity, which provides multiple benefits for women, including: stress and tension relief, increased immunity, prevention and management of high blood pressure, as well as a 30-40 percent reduction of coronary heart disease. Merry Maids is partnering with the AHA's Go Red For Women campaign for its third year to show people how to get active and get their hearts pumping from the comfort of their own homes through cleaning and maintaining a tidy living space.
"Consumers may not realize that scrubbing the bathroom floors and vacuuming are great ways to stay active, while helping to maintain a healthy home and heart," says Debra Johnson, home cleaning expert for Merry Maids. "Merry Maids is excited to partner with the American Heart Association's Go Red For Women campaign to raise awareness for a cause that affects millions of women in the U.S. every year."
By tackling basic cleaning activities, including vacuuming, washing the floor and scrubbing the shower, consumers can break a sweat and even burn calories, according to Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, cardiologist and spokesperson, American Heart Association's Go Red For Women. Merry Maids also put this to the test with its own "Get Moving, Start Cleaning, Be Heart Healthy" study in which it armed several Merry Maids team members with wearable fitness trackers to estimate how many calories they burned during routine cleaning chores.
Below Johnson highlights some of these daily cleaning activities that can help get the heart pumping:
Va Va Voom Vacuum Routine:
If the thought of choosing between going to the gym and vacuuming the living room stresses you out, you'll find comfort in knowing you can burn up to 170 calories in just one hour of vacuuming. Merry Maids team members who participated in the "Get Moving, Start Cleaning, Be Heart Healthy" study and wore fitness trackers during the workday burned an estimated 191 calories in an hour of vacuuming. While an hour may seem like a long amount of time, Johnson recommends vacuuming slowly in order for the vacuum cleaner to do its best work.
Bathroom Wipe Down Workout:
Scrubbing the tub and washing the bathroom floor are easy tasks to put on the backburner. Before procrastination sets in, consider that with a little bit of elbow grease and a microfiber cloth, cleaning the bathroom can be a workout of its own. The Merry Maids "Get Moving, Start Cleaning, Be Heart Healthy"
study estimated that Merry Maids team members burned more than 200 calories in one hour of bathroom cleaning. And if cleaning the bathroom makes you break a sweat, what better way to reward yourself than by calling first dibs on the freshly cleaned shower?
Mopping and Bopping:
It might seem silly to turn your mop into a dance partner or a microphone, but having a little fun while you wash the floors is just what you need to take your floor-washing chores from mundane to exciting. Getting your groove on with the mop for just 60 minutes will increase the number of steps you take, increase your heart rate and result in approximately 170 calories burned1. For best results, use a microfiber mop and a bucket of warm water with a little dish soap.
A Little Tidying Goes a Long Way:
Everyday cleaning activities such as dusting, sweeping and folding can equate to some serious heart-healthy activity. In that crucial hour of straightening up before bed or getting organized before weekend guests arrive, you can get your blood pumping and burn approximately 102 calories.
To celebrate the third year of its partnership with the AHA, Merry Maids is encouraging consumers to spread the love, or the "likes," in support of the cause. For every new "Like" of the Merry Maids Facebook page during the month of February, Merry Maids will donate $1 to the AHA's Go Red For Women campaign, and will match all donations up to $75,000.
"We are grateful to Merry Maids for its continued support to raise funds and awareness for cardiovascular disease as we work to build healthier lives," says Bernie Dennis, Chairman, American Heart Association National Board of Directors. "We truly appreciate Merry Maids' commitment to the cause, and we're excited to work together to promote simple and fun ways for families to stay active while cleaning at home."
A local Merry Maids team is ready for the workout and can create customized cleaning plans for every homes' needs to ensure a consistent, reliable and thorough cleaning process every time. To find the Merry Maids location nearest you, visit http://merrymaids.com.
Do spoilers actually do anything for regular cars on the street, or are they just for looks?
Most of this is in response to Bob Blaylock, who has a misguiding answer.
Your stated function is not correct. The function is not to give the drive wheels more traction! Spoilers provide aerodynamic stability. For example, by having some downforce on the rear end, you increase braking stability, as the car wouldn't tip forward as much, helping to keep the rear end planted.
You extremely exaggerate "simple, obvious facts". The facts that you present are anything but obvious.
1) The front-wheel drive argument is wrong. You don't want the downforce at the front wheels. At highway speeds, most street cars can't exceed tire traction limits by accelerating or slowing down. So it's pointless to add downforce over the drive wheels to aid traction. Instead, downforce stabilizes the car: it reduces the wavering of the suspension and helps keep the car planted. Furthermore, if you did add more downforce to the front, you would further unload the rear end of the car. Given that most front-wheel drive street cars are heavily weight-biased to the front, shifting that weight further forward will make the rear end more likely to loose traction and cause a spin.
2) I have sat on car spoilers, and while I am not proud of the fact, they have sustained collective weights of our friends in the high 300 lbs range just fine. Also consider that the downforce builds gradually. The trunk lid is actually pretty strong, and mount points for spoilers distribute weight appropriately. So it's OK and the trunk lids don't crumble: that's why you see touring cars (e.g. SCCA World Challenge) running with monstrous-looking wings that are screwed on to an otherwise stock trunk.
3) You fail to quantify what "significant" is for the downforce. 5% can be significant if it means that the balance of the car is shifted that much to the back. I don't have numbers on what is significant.
Now, the real argument is that most OEM spoilers are for looks and not performance. This is because of their shape: they are not angled appropriately and not positioned to create a surface for downforce. There's a reason why racing spoilers sit higher on the trunk and have adjustables angles.
So while you may get some improvements on the highway from a large spoiler (usually not OEM) it won't make a difference around town, and so you should save yourself the trouble.

How to Clear a Clogged Sewer Line
Beware
Using high pressure cleaning methods might damage the pipes permanently, along with their attached fixtures. Make sure that the line can handle heavy pressure before using such techniques.
A clogged sewer is a problem which needs immediate attention as it can lead to a stinker of a situation, if not taken care of in time. The water drained from sinks, toilets, showers, and every other water outlet in your house is ultimately channeled through a sewer line to a cesspool or a bigger sewer. Sometimes, due to the creation of blockages in these lines, by objects which aren't normally supposed to be forced through the drain, they tend to get clogged. Water may start regurgitating from all the drain holes in the house due to such a blockage.
The obstruction can be of various types. Most common is the accumulation of food items, soap residue, toilet paper, or the growth of tree roots inside the sewer. The blockage due to food items can be avoided by the use of a strainer at the drainage outlet and by avoiding the forcing down of non-perishable objects like plastic. Some of the major causes of blockage are cooking oil and coagulated grease.
How to Fix a Clogged Line?
There are many ways of clearing a clogged line. The technique to be chosen, wholly depends on the kind of obstruction that is blocking the line. Unclogging a drain is one of the most fundamental of plumbing jobs. Here are the standard techniques used by plumbers.
Use a Force Ball Plunger
Firstly, the easiest way is to use a force ball plunger to push the obstruction down and clear the line. Pour some hot water down the line and then apply the plunger several times. The pressure this simple tool generates can drain out obstructions quite easily. Keep repeating the plunging action until the obstruction clears out. You can buy one in any retail store for about USD 2 to USD 5.
Use a Chemical Cleaner
If that doesn't do the job, pouring a drain cleaner chemical may work. These are acidic chemicals that can effectively clear out any organic obstruction by dissolving it. These chemicals are generally available in hardware stores. Follow the directions provided by the manufacturer and pour the chemical down the clogged drain. Small organic obstructions are generally cleared this way. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes for these chemicals to take effect, after which, pouring hot water down the drain is recommended. In most cases of mild blockage in bathroom, sink, or shower drains, these cleaners should do the trick for you.
You may use a caustic drain cleaner (that uses lye and caustic potash), an oxidizing one (nitrates, peroxides, and household bleach), or acid cleaners (concentrated sulfuric or hydrochloric acid). Be careful when using acidic cleaners and make sure that you make no skin contact with them. Use protective gloves and eye protection while pouring them into drains. Drano, ZEP, Instant Power, and MrGreen are some of brands that offer a range of cleaning chemicals, ranging in price from USD 5 to USD 50. They work in most cases, when the obstruction is near the draining point.
Using A Snake Tool
If the obstructions are in the form of grown tree roots, they are unlikely to yield easily to simple methods. In case of root growth causing obstruction, you need to use a snake tool (a long steel cable that is wrapped around a spool), which is normally used by plumbers and is available in hardware stores. You can buy a cable auger for USD 10 to USD 25. It comes equipped with a hand crank, which is used to push the cable into the pipe for clearance.
First, you need to locate the clean out plug which can provide access to the drainage line. This is generally located in the basement. Once you locate it, you'll need a wrench to loosen and open it.
Place a bucket below the plug and loosen it slowly. Some waste may leak out, which you can collect in the bucket. Once the leakage has stopped, remove the plug fully and insert the snake tool inside and push it in, as much as you can. Rotate clockwise, as you insert it in and push until it hits an obstruction. Keep pushing and rotating until the obstruction is cleared out. Remove the snake and then seal the plug back in place.
The snake tool, also known as an auger, comes in many varieties and depending on the degree of blockage, you can use one that suits the requirement. Generally, most of the hand augers have a reach up to 25 ft or 8 meters. Use a closet auger, if you need to clean a toilet drain. Heavy-duty drum augers or electric augers are the most powerful plumber weapons to wage war against powerful obstructions like heavily grown tree roots.
Use of a Power Rotor/Rotating Saw or Jet Hydrovac
If none of the above methods work, you may have to use some high power tools, to get the obstruction to clear out. Tools like power rotors and rotating saws, available in hardware stores, can effectively be used to clear out any kind of obstruction.
These need to be inserted in the drain line, like the snake tool and they help in clearing out the obstruction by grinding it out. Another power tool used, in case of extremely clogged lines, is the jet hydrovac, that uses a high vacuum to pressurize any obstructions out of the clogged line. These devices are costly and are generally used by professional cleanup companies. So in case of extreme clogging, it is best to take help of professional plumbers or cleaning companies.
Some of the other options that can be used are sewer jetters (devices that spew out high pressure water to clean the drain by force) and enzymatic drain cleaners (powders that can effectively dissolve blockages with low environmental impact).
Your primary line of attack should be the plunger and the chemical cleaner. If those do not work, it is best to call in a professional plumber to handle the job.
Preventive maintenance in the form of avoiding the pouring of food items (leftovers, grease, and cooking oil), fitting of sewer hole strainers, and regular periodic cleanups will ensure that you do not face a clogged line situation.

Fashion is in my blood. When I was a kid, my mom would drive me two hours through crazy LA traffic for photo shoots. I used to hang out with the stylists, try on clothes, get advice. It was a great way to grow up. Eventually, I started giving my friends fashion advice, and never looked back.
After 20 years as a stylist for photographers, I was ready to start a business that would let me evolve my own fashion and consulting style. More than anything, I wanted to share my passion for fashion, and watch as my clients discovered the transformative power of a knock-out look.
Today my clients are CEOs, celebrities, corporate and creative people -- men and women who want serious input on their clothing style, advice on what to wear to an event, or how to put together and pack the most versatile travel wardrobe. I also do styling for fashion shoots, including art direction, makeup, hair, clothing and accessorizing. I’ll make you look great. I promise.
