By NOEY KUPCHAN
(AP) -- There doesn't appear to be any end in sight for the woeful Texas Rangers, who let one slip away last time out.
The Chicago White Sox are coming off a forgettable result of their own.
Again trying to regroup, Texas tries to avoid a seventh consecutive road loss in Monday night's series opener against the White Sox.
The Rangers (43-68) own the worst record in baseball and have dropped 33 of 41. They have hit .214 with runners in scoring position over that stretch and went 3 for 21 while being swept at Cleveland over the weekend.
After being outscored 14-2 in the first two defeats, Texas lost 4-3 in 12 innings in Sunday's finale. Yu Darvish staked the Rangers to a lead with seven strong innings, but Neftali Feliz served up a tying two-run homer in the ninth as they lost for the 19th time in 22 road games.
"We put ourselves in position to win, but we just didn't close the game off," manager Ron Washington said. "We got the ball to the ninth inning and didn't get it done. I'm giving guys opportunities because I feel at some point, they're going to take advantage, but you have to execute pitches."
Leadoff hitter Shin-Soo Choo has scored twice over his last 22 games while hitting .179, and rookie second baseman Rougned Odor is 3 for his last 28.
The White Sox (54-58) are looking to avoid their third consecutive defeat following Sunday's 16-3 loss to Minnesota, their highest run total surrendered this year. Chicago's 23 hits allowed were its most since 2011.
"First of all, it's never fun to lose, and it's definitely never fun to get your butt kicked," catcher Tyler Flowers told MLB's official website. "But baseball's a nice game, tomorrow it's a fresh start. I'm not going to think about it after I get done talking to you guys. It's over."
The White Sox will try to bounce back behind Hector Noesi (5-8, 5.21 ERA), who surrendered six runs and a career-worst 10 hits over six innings in Wednesday's 7-2 loss at Detroit. The right-hander retired just one of the first nine batters he faced, dropping to 3-2 over his last five starts.
Noesi, who was designated for assignment following a brief stint with Texas earlier this year before joining Chicago, posted an 8.18 ERA in losing each of his two starts against the Rangers in 2012 with Seattle.
He will be opposed by rookie Nick Martinez (1-7, 5.08), who is 0-6 with a 7.45 ERA over his last eight outings. The right-hander was tagged for six runs over 5 2-3 innings in Tuesday's 12-11 defeat to the New York Yankees.
"He's got stuff, he just has to figure out how to use it and figure out how to get out of tough situations by making pitches," Washington said. "It's all about consistency. Being able to go out and consistently do it. That's when you've arrived."
Rookie Jose Abreu, who hit safely in 21 straight before going 0 for 7 over the last two games, has not gone hitless in three straight games since going 0 for 14 over four contests from April 15-18. He went 5 for 13 with a homer, two doubles and three RBIs as Chicago dropped two of three at Texas from April 18-20.
Chicago is 7-1 in its last eight against the Rangers at home.
White Sox leadoff hitter Adam Eaton is batting .455 with 13 runs scored over an 18-game stretch, hitting safely in the last 10.

When Mike Bennett and Todd Ewing of Hollywood heard that there was a big fish swimming in a local canal, they decided to check it out.
They never expected to catch a potential world-record black pacu weighing 441/2 pounds.
Ewing caught the pacu Sunday morning fishing from shore with 20-pound spinning gear and a doughball. He fought the pacu, a native of South America that is related to the piranha, for nearly 20 minutes.

text: On September 11, 2004, about 1210 Pacific daylight time, a WSK-PZL PZL-104 Wilga 80, N10RN, registered to Northwest Skysport and flown by the pilot as a 14 CFR Part 91 glider tow/sightseeing operation, collided with the terrain following an aborted takeoff from The Dalles Municipal, The Dalles, Oregon. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time and no flight plan was filed for the local flight. The aircraft was substantially damaged and the commercial pilot and his passenger received minor injuries.During a telephone interview and subsequent written statement, the pilot reported that the beginning of the tow operation was normal. During the takeoff roll, the pilot stated that "the glider began an aggressive climb to the left raising my tail and pulling to the left." The pilot stated that he pulled back on the control stick to try and lower the tail as the airplane lifted off, however, he did not have elevator control and knowing that he was in trouble, tried to release the glider, however he did not think that the glider released. The aircraft began to decrease altitude and "skip" over the rough terrain off the side of the runway when he reduced power. The aircraft subsequently nosed over.The glider pilot in tow reported that the takeoff roll was normal and he held the glider on the ground longer than normal before lifting off. The glider pilot reported that just as the tow aircraft lifted off, a gust of wind from the left pushed the left wing of the tow plane up as the right main landing gear touched the runway. The glider pilot believed that the tow pilot was in trouble and fighting the controls as it went off the side of the runway. The glider pilot released the tow rope from the glider and aborted the takeoff, landing straight ahead on the runway. One witness reported both aircraft drifted to the right as a result of the 20 mph wind from 300 degrees, and that both were climbing slowly. The Wilga was not climbing and appeared to be fighting the crosswind. It lost flying speed and settled back to the right side of the runway.Another witness reported that in "crosswind conditions less than favorable..." the glider became airborne first and gained altitude rapidly and appeared to raise the tail of the tow plane. The glider released and landed without further incident, while the tow plane's right wing contacted the ground and subsequently flipped over.The takeoff was from runway 2. At the time of the accident, the weather reporting facility at The Dalles was reporting at 1153, a wind from 310 degrees at 19 knots, gusting to 26 knots.

Q: Is it true that caffeine-containing drinks have a diuretic effect and result in a loss of fluid?
A: No. Despite the popularity of this long-held belief – even among some health professionals – research does not support it. While it's true that caffeine in large amounts can temporarily increase urinary fluid loss, studies show that beverages containing moderate amounts of caffeine, like coffee, tea and soft drinks, hydrate our bodies just as well as drinks without caffeine. When it comes to calculating daily fluid intake, caffeinated drinks should be counted along with other liquids.
Q: How accurate are scales that claim to measure body fat percentage?
A: These scales merely estimate body fat by measuring how much resistance your body provides to a tiny electrical current. The scales rely on bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA), which evaluates how current is slowed or stopped as it passes through various materials. More body fat equals more resistance. Based on that resistance and other information you enter (including height, gender and age), the scale uses predetermined formulas to calculate an estimate of your percent body fat. While these scales can produce results close to the "gold standard" method of underwater weighing, studies reveal that the estimates can vary. In general, the scales tend to be better for watching changes in body fat over time, rather than for pinpoint accuracy in identifying body fat or for measuring short-term change in body fat.
Results are affected by anything that changes your fluid balance, including consumption of alcohol or caffeine, medications, hormonal changes, recent exercise, drinking or urination. For best results, test yourself at the same time of day and try to keep all of the above influences consistent. Also be sure to follow directions for cleaning and standing on the electrode spots. When purchasing a body fat scale, choose among models carefully. Since the body fat figures are based on standardized calculations, people who exercise even a few hours a week should get a model with an "athlete" mode that uses an adjusted calculation.
Q: Are beets a nutritionally sound choice?
A: With a low calorie content despite their sweet taste, beets are delicious and nutritious. They are an excellent source of folate, a B vitamin that is essential for producing and repairing DNA and may play a role in cancer protection. In addition, their red hue results from the presence of betacyanins, a type of phytochemical with antioxidant properties that may provide additional heart and cancer protection. Animal studies suggest that beets may also prevent carcinogen formation and increase production of immune cells and enzymes that help fight cancer development. To best preserve the nutrients, eat beets raw (for example, simply peel them and grate into salads). While canned beets are still nutrient-rich, gently home-cooked beets are almost three times higher in folate and twice as high in potassium. Cooking beets at home is easy. To start, leave about one inch of the stem intact to minimize color loss while cooking. Next, roast them in the oven or steam them lightly. Finally, pop the beets out of their skin after cooking and enjoy; you might want to wear rubber gloves at this point to avoid temporarily pink-stained fingers.
The American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) is the cancer charity that fosters research on the relationship of nutrition, physical activity and weight management to cancer risk, interprets the scientific literature and educates the public about the results. It has contributed more than $100 million for innovative research conducted at universities, hospitals and research centers across the country. AICR has published two landmark reports that interpret the accumulated research in the field, and is committed to a process of continuous review. AICR also provides a wide range of educational programs to help millions of Americans learn to make dietary changes for lower cancer risk. Its award-winning New American Plate program is presented in brochures, seminars and on its website, www.aicr.org.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I am trying to filter some of my high-coverage samples based on a minimum depth and have found that the value stored in the DP INFO field and the AD genotype tag changes depending on whether or not I have run VariantAnnotator. The call I have used for VariantAnnotator is:
java -jar GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -T VariantAnnotator -R ucsc.hg19.fasta -I example.bam --variant example.raw.vcf --out example.annotated.vcf -G StandardAnnotation -L example.raw.vcf -rf BadCigar -dcov 15000
Here are the differences for some test cases with HaplotypeCaller:
No MarkDuplicates, did IndelRealigner & BQSR, nightly build 12/04/2013
Annotated: DP=2745, AD=4,2729 Raw: DP=957, AD=1,907
MarkDuplicates, IndelRealigner and BQSR, nightly build 12/04/2013
Annotated: DP=20, AD=0,20 Raw: DP=10, AD=0,8
Raw BAM, nightly build 12/04/2013
Annotated: DP=2745,AD=4,2729 Raw: DP=868, AD=1,864
Raw BAM, version 2.4-9
Annotated: DP=2745, AD=4,2729 Raw: DP=616, AD=1,611
I suspect what is happening here is that VariantAnnotator is taking the depth information from the provided BAM and replacing the depth information reported by the variant caller. Anyway, just wondering- which value is a better reflection of the depth used to make a given variant call? (i.e. which could I use in hard filtering?)
Thanks for your help!
That's right, these field values get updated to match whichever bam file you pass in when you run VariantAnnotator. You should use the ones corresponding to the bam that was fully processed in accordance with our Best Practices, i.e. "MarkDuplicates, IndelRealigner and BQSR". At the very least, do not trust values corresponding to a bam where duplicates were not marked, because those are artificially inflated.
Geraldine Van der Auwera, PhD
Great, thank you for confirming! In this case, I suspect we are seeing more genuine duplication (because of small, targeted areas and high coverage) than PCR duplication, so I'll have to do more testing to determine whether I should run MarkDuplicates.

Flying start for Francie Molloy Mid-Ulster by-election campaign
"Clearly, retaining the Mid-Ulster seat will be a challenge to the party and one we must face resolutely and with determination," Mary Lou said.
THE campaign to get Francie Molloy elected to replace Martin McGuinness as MP for Mid-Ulster got off to a flying start on Sunday 3 February.
Activists from across Ireland travelled to Galbally, County Tyrone, to hear outgoing MP Martin McGuinness endorse Molloy as "the right man for the job" as he addressed hundreds of party members and supporters.
Elected representatives from all of the Six Counties were present, including many from Counties Derry and Tyrone, the heart of the Mid-Ulster constituency.
Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams TD was also there.
Lending her support to the campaign, Sinn Féin deputy leader Mary Lou McDonald TD spoke and warned against complacency in holding the seat against a unionist challenge.
"Clearly, retaining the Mid-Ulster seat will be a challenge to the party and one we must face resolutely and with determination," Mary Lou said.

$917 Million in Refunds for Unfiled 2009 Tax Returns
The IRS issued a press release late last week indicating an estimated 984,400 taxpayers who did not file a tax return in 2009, are entitled to a slice of $917 million in tax refunds! The IRS estimates that half the potential refunds for 2009 are more than $500.
There is a catch though. To collect the 2009 refund, a return must be filed, properly addressed, mailed and postmarked to the IRS no later than Monday, April 15, 2013. Also, the IRS is informing taxpayers that checks may be held if they have not yet filed their 2010 and 2011 tax returns. Refunds could also be applied to other debts such as the following:
- IRS back taxes
- Tax debt to a state taxing authority
- Unpaid child support
- Past due federal debts such as student loans
It's hard to imagine being entitled to a refund after not filing a tax return for three years yet every year, millions of dollars go unclaimed. The IRS believes some people don't file because they earned too little income to require filing a tax return. Note: If a taxpayer earns under $9,600; they are not obligated to file. However, if taxes were taken out or they made quarterly estimated payments, it's in their best interest to file a return to collect the refund. Additionally, many low-and-moderate income workers who did not file may not have claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) which in 2009 was worth as much as $5,657 in credit.
However, don't think for a minute it's a good strategy not to file your tax returns because it's not. Here are some facts you may want to consider:
All taxpayers (with a few exceptions) are legally required to file a tax return. If they don't, they are subjecting themselves to major IRS tax issues including IRS penalties of $10,000 per year and possibly one year in jail. (Check out this post about non-filing/tax protester Randall Blair Johnson, who will spend 41 months in prison for willfully failing to file tax returns for three years).
It's no secret the IRS has been more aggressive than ever about going after non-filers, and wealthy U.S. citizens with undisclosed assets in offshore bank accounts. If you have delinquent tax returns, you will want to hire a certified tax resolution specialist or tax attorney to help to get you back on track with the IRS. These tax experts will file your latest tax return, and any prior delinquent unfiled tax returns quickly for a proper reckoning of what you truly owe. These steps will help you become IRS compliant and can go a long way to avoid tax problems in the future.

text: Hey, guys. Angie here. Welcome to week 7 of the Wedding Dress Challenge. This week's workout is designed to engage your whole body in new ways which is the best way to build muscle fast, and building muscle is key to burning fat and getting back to the size you were as a bride. So here's how it's done. Let's start with 7 single leg squats on each leg. Stand in front of a chair or bench and balance on one leg. Push your hips back first keeping your chest lifted. Use that bench as a guide so you know how low to squat but don't actually sit down. Stand back up again and repeat with the other leg until you've done 7 reps each side. Need to make it a little easier? You can tap your heel to the floor to keep you stabilized. Talk about a fantastic booty boost. Next step you'll do 7 dips which are great for your arms, shoulders, and chest. Have a seat on your chair putting your arms at your sides with your hands gripping the chair. Keep your back close to the bench and lower down bending your arms until your elbows create a 90-degree angle. To make it easier, just bend your legs. Your last move is the plank row, a great exercise for your back, balance, and entire midsection. Start in the pushup position with your legs wide and your hands on the floor directly beneath your shoulders. Before you begin the row, gently shift your weight to one side keeping your hips aligned. Alternating sides, bring each hand up to tap your shoulder. Tighten the muscles in your midsection as much as you can to help stabilize your body through the movement and again do 7 on each side. Make it harder by adding dumbbells. This exercise requires stability so take your time and do it right, paying attention to your hips so they don't drop from one side to the other. Now that you've done 7 each, it's time to do this whole round 6 more times for a total of 7 rounds. That's 7 rounds of 7 single leg squats, 7 dips and 7 plank rows. To make it easier, you can go through the whole routine just 5 times. Good luck. Okay, 3, 2, 1, go. Great work today, guys. I know that was a challenging one, but you did it. As always I'm here for you in a Wedding Dress Challenge Community, so ask me any questions. Now here's your fit list. See you next week. Here's your fit list for the week. This week, I want you to walk or run 2 miles or 20 minutes whichever you can complete first. You'll burn more calories if you push yourself to go faster for 1 minute then slow down to moderate pace then back to fast, continuing like that and alternating 1 minute intervals until you're done. If you don't have a stopwatch, just make a playlist with alternating fast and slow songs and change speeds when the tempo changes. Next, pick another day this week to do the workout from week 5 of the challenge. And your sneaky exercise is all about abs. At work, just getting home, anytime you can think of it, focus on tightening your abs. Pull you belly button in, roll your shoulders back and breathe in and out deeply. Yes, this counts as an ab workout too. Finally, find time to sit in a yoga class, DVD, or free workout online.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best way to clean hardwood floors?
Whats the best way to clean hardwood floors? What commercial or natural product do you use?I think I used to use vinegar and water, is that good? What are your methods, whats the best way to remove grease from hardwood floors? Do those steam cleaners work well? If so what brand do you recommend?
My entire house is is hardwood floors and I am well…. NUTS! when it comes to things being clean and shiny!!
I have used most of the stuff out on the market. Do not use the Swifter wet stuff it just leaves a film and the steam cleaners really just pushes the dirt around at least that is what I have found. The best method vinegar and water and a good clean sponge head mop. The true method to bringing out the shine is to wipe the floors dry, I have a bunch of old towels that I just throw on the floor and with my two feet and sometimes hands buff the floors dry. I have a very light wood in my home and when the sun streams through the glass doors off the back of my house you see a brilliant shine. Best of luck
Best way to clean hardwood floors?
What is the best way to clean hardwood floors? It seems I have tried everything and there is always a film left over the floors taking away the shine. My floors are original bamboo floors. Thank you.
Most wood floors can be kept clean by first sweeping or vacuuming with a floor nozzle to remove most of the surface dust and dirt, then damp mopping with clear water (dip a sponge in clear water, squeezing it out so that the mop is barely damp, almost dry). Use very little water and rinse your mop thoroughly after each use since excess water can dissolve protective coatings, alter the color of the wood and raise the grain to roughen the surface.
If your floors are not dirty enough to need mopping every week, then you should not do it, as it will wear the floors faster, not to mention waste your time. Simply sweeping is often all they need.
If need to restore the shine to your wood floor after you get it clean, try damp mopping it with 1/2 cup vinegar and 2 tablespoons furniture polish in a gallon of warm water. Vinegar is also useful for removing any soap residue or build-up, but should not be necessary every week.:)
Any tips on cleaning hardwood floors besides the high priced cleaners in the stores?
Those cleaners were prolly not around years ago, so what did our parents, grandparents use to clean hardwood floors?
Vinegar and water cleans almost everything under the sun. If you would like a commercial product, try Murphy's Oil Soap. It's designed to clean wood without damaging it.
What is the Best way to clean Hardwood floors??
Anyone know the best way to clean hardwood floors without stripping them??
Hot water and vinager
What do i use to clean hardwood floors?
My family and I just installed hardwood floors. I was wondering how do i clean my house? Whats the best simple way to clean hardwood floors?
Wood floors are not meant to be washed down. Murphy's oil soap is the worst thing you can use on your floor. If ever the floors need to be refinished there is where you will see the problem. Once the sealer is applied it will separate like oil and vinegar. Solution for this? Floors will have to be re-sanded. So save yourself the trouble in the future! What i recommend to all my clients with very expensive wood floors is a product called Bona X http://www.bonakemi.com/shop/products.asp
It is the only thing that you should use on your floors. Never use vinegar or anything that has a ammonia base. Your floors will bleach and ruin the sealant
What's the best way to clean a poly-stained hardwood floor? Are there any "natural" methods that work well?
Years ago I read about using black tea to clean hardwood floors. I'm wonding if anyone has tried this? I would like to use products I may already have at home such as: tea, vinegar, etc.
I've never tried anything that I already have on my hardwood floors. I always just use Murphy Oil. It leaves my floors looking and smelling so clean, with just a little bit of shine. AND it's not sticky or slippery.
What is the best thing to clean hardwood floors with?
I need something that will clean my hardwood floors without leaving a nasty streaky look!! Any suggestions??
I use Apple Cider Vinegar and water. Mix the two in any ratio you want. Then mop and scrub with this mixture. Don't over-saturate the mop…you want damp, but not dripping wet.
Apple Cider Vinegar contains tannins, which condition the wood while it cleans. It makes hardwood floors absolutely glow. Plus it's non-toxic and can be used as often as you like.
Once in a while I also add a couple teaspoons of Lemon Oil to the mixture…but you could use just about any Essential Oil. If you do add oil, stir the mixture often to keep the oil mixed.
I used to use Murphy's Oil soap, but it left a dull residue, so I switched to this method after hearing about on HGTV.
You might consider using a Microfiber mop, too. Microfiber + apple cider vinegar will get rid of those streaks you've been getting. You can buy microfiber mops just about anywhere…Target, Walmart, Home Depot, even Dollar General.
Good luck.
what is the best way to clean hardwood floors?
we are tearing up the carpet and refinishing the natural oak floors in our new home and since i have only ever had carpet i need to know the best way to clean the floors because i am a neat freak lol…i would like to go with some sort of vaccum because i am afraid a broom with scratch the floors, doesnt swifer make a small vaccum? would that work? also i know you cannot mop them so how do you actually clean/disinfect a hardwood floor?
I would use a shop vac to vacuum up whatever the carpet left. Then I'd dust it with a microfiber dust mop. There are various cleaners for hardwood floors. I do not like the oil soap ones. Lowes and Sams sell some industrial hardwood floor cleaners–I'd mop the floors using one of those following directions. Then I'd use the Orange Glo Every Day Floor Cleaner and mop that you can buy at Target, Bed, Bath and Beyond, etc.
How should I clean my hardwood floors?
I've been doing online research trying to find out whats the best way to clean my hardwood floors. I'm getting all kinds of answers like "use vinegar" and then at another site I get "don't use vinegar!" I just want to know what people are using. This is for like a weekly cleaning, not a major wax job or anything like that. Normally I mop my vinyl and slate floors with water and Pine-sol; is this a save option for my hardwoods? Wet mop or slightly damp? Help! Thanks!
Do not use vinegar! Murphys Oil Soap is for wood. Never use products on wood unless it says safe for wood. Murphys cleans great and smells good too.

The best way to clean a hardwood floor?
I'm buying a home which has hardwood flooring covered by carpeting. I'm going to tear up the carpeting and inspect the flooring. If the flooring is in decent shape, what should I probably be prepared to do? Are there any tricks to thoroughly cleaning hardwood flooring? Thanks.
A mop or swiffer will usually do the trick. But once you clean it you'll want to protect it with a clear epoxy coating such as one of those on this page:
How do i get streaks of my hardwood floor?
I cleaned my hardwood floor with clorax bleach . And since I have done that u see all these streaks on it . I have mopped over it a million times with water and I dry it will a towel afterwards. So any suggestions on what to use to get rid of the streaks .
Unfortunately, the bleach has probably eaten away at your floors finish. Your only hope now is to have what is called a buff and recoat done on the floors. This involves buffing the floor and applying a fresh coating of a wood floor finish. It usually costs about per square foot.
What is the best cleaner for hardwood floors?
I have hardwood floors throughout my house and I would like your opinions on what the best hardwood floor cleaner is and what makes them really shiny. I use orange glo and the shine doesnt last long at all.
Hi, It is important to regularly remove dirt and debris from your wood floors as it can wear the finish. I usually vacuum with a hard floor brush. If I don't feel like pulling out the vacuum I use a broom or swifter.
I damp mop only when it looks like it needs it with only a slightly damp mop rinsing the mop regularly. I just use warm water as we like going barefoot and I like natural products. Do not use ammonia based or oil based soaps as they dull the finish of your floor. Once in a while I use a 1/4 cup vinegar to 1 gallon water. I attach a towel to my swifter and quickly dry mop it if it is cold out and it is not drying quickly.
It is also good to use preventative maintenance such as felt pads on your furniture. Area rugs should be placed in high traffic area and at entrances to help trap dirt. An area rug placed by your sink helps with water being splashed. Any spills should be wiped up right away. Hope this helps.

You should never use one of those liquid self-shine products on hardwood floors.After awhile there will be a build-up especially in the corners.
The best way to clean the wax buildup is with Tri-Sodium-Phosphate – TSP – and then use a good paste wax put down with a buffer."Butches
Paste Wax" is a good one. 9/25
How do I remove streaks from my hardwood floor?
Tried everything over the course of the last 6 weeks. Cleaned with hardwood floor cleaner (Holloway House), vinegar/warm water, Murphy's Oil Soap. Still streaks! What can I do to remove the streaking?
The first thing you need to know is what type of finish you have on your floor. If the floor was purchased sometime in the last 7 years it is most likely a urethane/aluminum oxide finish. If this is the case the first thing you need to do is stop using any polish, oil, soap, or water on the floor. All of these products will ruin the finish of your floor. What you need to do is go to Home Depot and buy some large pails of acetone. Pour some acetone on a clean white cloth and wipe down the floor with it. Repeat this process over the entire floor, the acetone will not damage the finish of the floor. You may need to do this several times in order to completely strip the floor of all the other products you have been using. After you have completely cleaned the floor start using Bona Cleaner for your regular cleaning. This is a product that is specifically made for urethane finish floors and should remove the streaks. It can be purchased at Home Depot, Lowes, or any specialty Flooring Store.
What is the best way to clean hardwood floors?
I have dark hardwood floors and cannot get them clean! I recently tried Orange Glow and it did nothing… so today I tried Murphy's Oil and now I think I stripped the floor! Please help.
The quickest and most effective way to clean hardwood floors is with a damp mop. Before mopping, make sure that you have removed all surface dust from the floor. This can be done with a soft broom or lightweight vacuum cleaner.There are many hardwood floor cleaners available, but a neutral cleanser (neither too low or too high a pH level) and water will do the job just as effectively
When I cleaned dog poop off my hardwood floor, why does it still smell?
I cleaned the hardwood floor by picking up the dog poop and cleaning the area with a combination of clorox cleansing wipes and mr. clean floor disinfectant cleanser. Why does the room still smell a little like dog poop?
Either there is still poop stuck in very small crevices of your floor or it's simply that lovely odor that's lingering in the air. Try opening up the windows, airing out the room and see if it still smells after a couple/few hours.
Good luck! Seriously!
What is the best thing to clean hardwood floors with?
I am renting a place that was built in 1912, it has the original hardwood floors in it. The clear coating I guess its sealer has flaked off in quit a few spots. What would be the best thing to clean the floor with that would be safe for my animals. Ive worked in an old building that I had to clean the floors with vinegar and water but it left it dull looking. Any suggestions Thanks
Try using Apple Cider Vinegar and water, instead of white vinegar. Mix the two in any ratio you want. Then mop and scrub with this mixture. Don't over-saturate the mop…you want damp, but not dripping wet.
Apple Cider Vinegar contains tannins, which condition the wood while it cleans. It makes hardwood floors absolutely glow. Plus it's non-toxic so it won't hurt your animals.
Once in a while you can also add a couple teaspoons of just about any Essential Oil. This will add extra glow. If you do add oil, stir the mixture often to keep the oil mixed.
I used to use Murphy's Oil soap, but it left a dull residue, so I switched to this method after hearing about on HGTV.
You might also consider using a Microfiber mop, too. You can buy these just about anywhere…Target, Walmart, Home Depot, even Dollar General.
Good luck.
What is the best product to use to clean hardwood floors?
I have hardwood floors throughout my house. My dog has started having accidents due to his age. What do I use to clean them that will not destroy the poly/shine finish?
One cup of vinegar to a gallon of warm water is the safest and best way to clean your hardwood floors. The vinegar will also neutralize the urine.
Murphy's Oil Soap is to be avoided as it does nothing to neutralize the dog urine and leaves a residue that may make a buff and recoat impossible in the future.
Having been the owner of an older dog (Boxer) I have been through this too, hardwood is infinitely easier to clean than carpeting for accidents.^
What's the best way to clean hardwood floors?
We recently had our hardwood floors refinished and want to preserve them. Is there one particualr cleaner/polisher that is recommended? I checked at our local hardware store and there seems to be a pletheora of products but not sure which one to use for general cleaning that won't cause build up or cause the finish to erode. Thank you
I just found a product that works well. It is Bona Swedish Formula hardwood floor cleaner. You spray a small area of floor with the cleaner, then wipe it with a swiffer-like floor cloth. I bought a kit that included the swiffer-like item (the cloth can be removed for laundering) and the cleaner. Its is recommended for finished floors, with a unwaxed finish.
What is the best way to clean hardwood floors?
I have two puppies, one is in the proccess of being potty trained, he does well during the day, but at night, he tends to urinate and poop upstairs on my hardwood floor. I know not to use bleach on hardwood floor, but I don't know any other way to clean them. I also need to get rid of the animal smell in my house, any suggestions?
Glenn is absolutely right.. The cleaner MADE for hard wood flooring is the best.. Along with the dust mop those type need.. Bruce and Bona put out a good kit for 20$… NEVER soap and water… soap will leave a residue on the floor unless rinsed well. And you do NOT want to use excess water on wood. The residue left will attract dirt.. You don t use soap and water on your fine wood furniture why on your nice hard wood? A kennel for the pup will help potty train them and keep messes contained. My dogs love a nice quiet spot of their own GL
Floor cleaner that will clean tile & hardwood floors?
I'm looking for something that will clean tile and hardwood floors — are there any products like that? Will Pine Sol be okay or are there better products? Not looking for anything super expensive, just need to clean the floors!
Thanks Dana — personally, I like the smell of Pine Sol and it's made with Pine Oil… so, it's pretty natural, IMO.
I don't like the "all-green-clean" stuff, either, and I have a B.S. in Environmental Science & Studies.
Pin Sol, Spic and SPan, or you could be a moron and buy a "Green" Cleaner if you like to pay more for a product just as toxic and worse on the environment. Then there will be the idiots that tell you to use vinegar and water, but since vinegar is a toxic acid it will damage your floors and poison your family! SOrry I just wanted to save you from all the uneducated, misinformed "Natural" cleaner crowd that frequents Y/A!!
Hey I have the same degree! Any luck finding work????
What's the best tool to use to remove dog/cat hair from a hardwood floor?
Our dog and cat shed everywhere, and the only places that we aren't able to keep clean are the hardwood floor in the living room and the Pergo floor in the kitchen. We've tried everything from our vaccuum cleaner to a Swiffer to a dust mop, but we can't ever pick up all of the hair. What has worked for you?
i bought a type of mop at home depot last year. the handle is bright yellow and the head is black. the head is just made of rubber, one side like a squeegie and the other side is rubber teeth. it picks up everything off of a hardwood or tile floor. i use it every day… they were sold on tv with a goofy name like magic mop… or something. i just checked ebay and found one… same color as mine… check out : http://cgi.ebay.com/Original-Dutch-Broom-Great-for-Pet-Hair_W0QQitemZ130061328933QQihZ003QQcategoryZ46305QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

How can I REALLY clean hardwood floors that have not been cleaned in years?
I just moved into an old house that was recently renovated. The all original hardwood floors had not been cleaned in years prior to us moving in. We've Swiffer-ed multiple times, vacuumed, and mopped with Murphy's Oil Soap (and immediately hand dried with a towel) to remove the layers upon layers of dust and grime. But no matter what we do, the floors are still noticeably dirty from the years of build up and renovations. What can I do?
You will probably have to have them refinished to get that glow back.I know when I use to use the products you mantioned my floors looked worse and also had streaks.After talking to many floor specialist the only way I clean them now is with a Steam cleaner made just for hardwood floors..It's made by Shark and sold at Lowes.I use just Distilled water and my floors are perfect everytime.They do sell Rejuvinators but once you use this you'll never be able to clean them again the regular way as it leaves a wax coating,so be careful
how to clean hardwood floors?
I have old hardwood floor and after I clean them, they still look dirty, how can I go about cleaning them and making them healthy enough for two small children.
That dirt may well be just the patina of the floor. As wood ages it takes on a different look from new – the wood becomes more ruddy and the shine is a bit fuzzier. Dark spots appear in various crevices, etc. Antique collectors and lovers of old homes find this to be quite attractive. The only way to get ride of it is to strip. Don't do that…old floors are beautiful!! If you are using a wood cleaner that contains silicone (like Pledge) your floors will look dull. The more silicone that is added, the duller they will look. Forget about that. Clean them well with a fresh mop and plenty of warm soapy water. Scrub them GOOD! The water will be grey and need to be changed often. After they dry, get another clean mop and a heavy dose of wood oil (a good brand with no added color or citrus) and apply this to the floors with your mop. Buff to a high shine. They will look great. Think about sweeping and polishing wood floors, not mopping them with a harsh liquid.
Good luck!!
What's a sure way to clean AND shine hardwood floors?
With two kids and a dog our hardwood floors are looking somewhat dull. When I use any of the commercial hardwood cleaners they seem to make it even duller. Vinegar is a great cleaner but does nothing for the shine.
Does anyone have a great recipe to clean AND shine hardwood floors?
If they're real hardwood floors, it's the finish (most often polyurethane) that makes them shine. Cleaning with vinegar is great but, you're right, it won't shine them. If they were shiny at one point, you'll need to reapply the semi or high gloss finish. Products like Pledge, Murphy's Oil or other waxy cleaners will not give you the results you're looking for. It will make them appear dull. (and actually trap dirt.)
How to clean a stove with out using toxic?
I have a small cleaning service and i am trying to find out how to clean a oven with out toxic oven cleaner and would to also find out the best way to clean hardwood floors. http://www.completelycleanhomes.net

how do i clean my click hardwood floors?
i think its laminate m not sure lol … its the stuff that looks like hardwood but its like 4 pieces and clicks together..see i bought pledge hardwood floor cleaner and now i have a white residue on my entire floor how do i clean it? how do i get the residue off and what product do i use to mantain it?
Honey save yourself a ton of time and money. All you need for hardwood or Pergo is white vinegar and water. Combine half and half in a spray bottle and you have the very best cleaner for wood floors or any floor really. You may have some residual streaking as the buildup from the Pledge comes off but don't worry – after about 3 cleanings it should be totally gone.
The smell goes away in like a half hour – less if you open the windows.

Spotty snowfall in the Upper Midwest is making some business owners happy and hurting others.
Snow accumulation is below normal across the region for the second consecutive winter. It's picked up over the past week as temperatures have fallen dramatically. But some areas are having a feast and others a famine.
Sarah Long says bare ground caused her resort in Michigan's Upper Peninsula to lose nearly three weeks' worth of reservations. But heavy lake-effect snow in recent days has turned things around.
In much of Wisconsin and Minnesota, snowmobile rental companies and plow truck drivers are getting little demand. Chicago got its first inch-deep layer of snow Friday.
Some resorts have begun offering winter activities that don't require snow, such as wine tasting and ice fishing.

text: Although the title of the film (and book, and TV series) soon became a synonym for sex and sin, the largely orchestral score to the movie is far less sexy than you'd expect. Franz Waxman handled the scoring of the film in pretty much the same way as he'd handled a lot of his other classic Hollywood work – with poise and sophistication. The orchestrations for the soundtrack are very complex, with many romantic and dramatic themes running through the entire album – and the overall effect is strong, but very traditional. Titles include "The Rape", "Chase In The Woods", "After The Party", "Rossi's Visit", and "Swimming Scene". (Mono pressing.

WHI-1159 | Is Christianity the Only True Religion?
Is it true that all the religions of the world are simply different paths to God, or is Jesus the only way? If Christianity is the only true religion, does this mean that other religions are completely false? What about those who have never heard about Jesus? Joining us to discuss some of these questions is Dr. John Stackhouse, Professor of Theology and Culture at Regent College in Vancouver, BC. (originally aired June 21, 2009).

It's a decision that many may not agree with, nor completely understand.
Tuesday night, an elderly St. Joseph County man shot his wife multiple times and then turned the gun on himself. In this case, police say no foul play was involved and it's a homicide and not murder.
Out of respect for the family and the deceased couple, NewsCenter 16 decided to not release the names of the man and woman involved.
Family members found the couple in their home on Layton Rd., just east of US 331, shortly before 8:30 p.m. St. Joseph County Police as well as County Metro Homicide were called to investigate--as a matter of protocol--and quickly concluded their investigation.
Autopsies conducted Wednesday determined the woman died as a result of multiple gunshot wounds, her death was ruled a homicide. Her husband's death was ruled suicide by gunfire. Both victims suffered from numerous health issues, which appeared the be the motivating factors in this mercy killing.
The victims' children told investigators they understand why their parents did this, attributing failing health and agreement to not enter a nursing home.
Officials said the wife's health was rapidly deteriorating and she needed a significant amount of medical assistance.
REAL Services, which helps families with quality of life treatment and programs said more than 80 percent of older adults would rather die than leave their homes for an assisted living facility.

Company Name: Butters and Bars
Product Name: Conditioning Hair Masque
Ingredients: 100% Australian Pink clay and Moroccan Mud (Rasshoul clay), aloe vera juice, hemp seed oil, olive oil ,raw honey and silk protein, grapefruitseed extract, and germall (formaldehyde and sulfate free preservative)
Consistency: Muddy, moist
Price: 6 oz-$6.99 (also available in 12 oz and 16 oz)
Purchase from: Butters and Bars
I have to admit it.
I just bought this because I wanted to put mud in my hair.
And that's what this looks like. A container of mud with a reddish hue.
I purchased the 6 oz jar and that was enough for my whole head. Let me start with the positives. My hair felt super soft and springy afterwards. It was moisturized without feeling heavily weighed down or oily. It also gives your hair a cool red look while it's in. I felt like a Himba lady for a minute There was not much of a scent and you can't beat the price for the ingredients. Overall, it's a wonderful treatment.
Unfortunately…it was hard to wash out. It wasn't as hard to wash out as cassia or ZSC but I had to go back several times to rinse because I'd find a patch of it here or there, mostly near my scalp. I can usually rinse out my conditioner while it's in big twists but I had to undo them to make sure I'd gotten it all out. Truth be told, I still had a small patch in my middle part and it made my scalp look red.
It also had very little slip. I like to detangle while I apply my deep conditioner. I was pretty much not able to do that. From reading the website, I gather this mask is supposed to be a henna-like treatment. If you think of it that way, then I should not have expected slip in the first place.

I have the pressed powder version of this. I love the packaging, the mirror and brush are both really good. I also really like the powder. It's not as good as foundation or anything like that, and it only lasts a few hours, but it does cover redness pretty well. It is very easy and quick to apply and blends really well despite being yellow. I wouldn't recommend it for and big event or night out, because for that I would think you would want a foundation and even concealer. What I mainly use it for are those days I wake up late and am rushing out to get to class or if I'm just running out to the store and I just need something quick to even out my skin. Overall it is a good product but it doesn't quite take the place of foundation or concealer. Its best layered over other makeup or on days you want lighter coverage.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I've owned this for well over two years and have tried to use it many times. It does nothing to cover the redness around my nose and and on my chin, it wears off almost immediately and is generally not a pleasant powder to use. I just never reach for it and I'm tired of it taking up space so today I'm throwing it out. I've tried using it on its own, under make-up, over make-up and as a setting powder (it doesn't blend as well as others), and nothing works. A waste of money and space.
Gotta say, this is my life saver. I have rather pale skin, and I blush at anything. Anything. And it doesn't go away - if I get all flustered or hot but then calm down, my face stays beetroot for a good 20, 30 minutes or until I can go sit down somewhere by myself for a while. It's always been rather embarrassing, and I'm a musician so I'm always under hot lights. I got a sample of this off ebay a few years ago when it just came out, and I've loved it ever since. I've since bought another sample size, and more recently a full size one and I don't anticipate it running out anytime soon. The sample sizes did me for half a year, and the full size is BIG.
Pros: instant effect, doesn't show up yellow on your face, discreet, very effective
Cons: wears off after a while, and in extreme circumstances doesn't work so well. If you apply too much over very red skin you just end up looking bizarre, as the red will still shine through.
I wear very little makeup, just a bit of concealer, this, and a dust of mineral foundation over my cheeks. If I'm using liquid foundation for a night out, I'll put this powder over the top of that.

Powder goes on but it does not do much for redness besides making my skin look "yellow" and red. Think it would work better if they made it a green powder instead. I also think the color is too vibrant and bright.

Aaagh! I was so happy to be able to purchase this powder (especially since I got a GWP at Clinique), but this is my second day wearing it and I literally want to claw my skin off, it itches so much. I keep looking in the mirror, expecting for my face to be red and blotchy from this reaction I'm having to it, but it isn't really -- I guess that's a plus :). If this product worked, I really wouldn't mind paying the price for it, even though it's definitely the most expensive powder I've ever purchased. I had a similar reaction to a Physician's Formula mineral bronzer from the drugstore, but had expected that a Clinique product marketed to those of us with sensitive/easily-irritated skin would have a better formula--no such luck. :(

Oh my goodness, i got a sample of this product from sephora and i thought it really canceled out the redness in my tan skin. It is the BEST discovery I made in loose powder. The reason I have NC40 with very yellow undertones and this powder is the perfect setting powder after my foundation, it doesnt darken up my foundation and actually makes my skintone look healthy and natural. I got this in full size in loose powder form. I know this powder is for rosacea, but it is a good knock off of t.clerac banane powder. I was actually going to buy in ben nye banana powder online but most sites selling ben nye dont look legit to me. when I got the sephora sample, I knew I had to get this rather than ben nye. I will continue to use this because clinique is readily available and affordable.

I recently just started using the Clinique Redness Relief Pressed Mineral Powder and I'm loving it! When you pair this with the Redness Relief Foundation it really helps to cover up my persistent and moderate rosacea, and it's perfect for touch-ups during the day. I have tried everything from MAC,Origins, Aveda, and Bare Escentuals to try and cover my redness. None of these companies have helped my skin and I ended up wasting my money for foundation and powder that never covered all of my redness and increased my skin irritation.
The combination of the Redness Relief Foundation and the Redness Relief Pressed Mineral Powder has worked the best for me so far. If you go to Nordstrom's they will let you try it and return or exchange it if it doesn't work for you-so it's definitely worth a try if you have been suffering from trying to cover your redness from rosacea and/or acne. If you're debating please try it, it may help you as much as it has helped me!

NOTE: This review is for the Redness Relief Mineral PRESSED Powder.
I use this mainly as a powder for touch-ups throughout the day, although it works well as a finishing powder too!
First off, let me say this doesn't have a dramatic power in reducing redness. You do need to pair it with an effective primer and/or green concealers etc. So I would say that the correcting effect is really mild, not suitable if you have serious redness issues, such as rosacea, bad acne etc.
However, I only get red cheeks and nose especially with the cold weather or dramatic temperature changes (inside/outside), and this works just fine!
A list of pros:
- mild corrector of redness
- very finely milled, so it looks transparent and 100% natural on skin
- possibly it has some calming effect
- really handy to keep in my purse for touch-ups
- it can be layered and the yellow never shows off too obviously
- consider buying something else if your redness is very obvious
- quite pricey
- I don't understand the open holes on the back of the packaging. It feels like it lets bacteria in so easily!
One final consideration:
a) this does NOT mattify. Don't buy this if you need oil control.
In sum: do buy this if you have mild redness, normal to dry sensitive skin and need a compact powder! I like it!
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
It now comes in a pressed powder..woohoo. I love the Clinique stay matte but have found this does the same job..keeping my makeup in place and keeping my oil at bay. The one thing I noticed however is that because it is a "yellow" powder and I'am so pale that it really evens out my skintone lovely. No matter the amount of touch ups I do its nice because it doesnt DARKEN my foundation. I love it! I do use my own brush because the one it comes with is a joke LOL!
More reviews by brightcrystal10
The main reason why I wear face makeup is because I have a lot of redness in my cheeks, and I like to cover it up. This product teamed with L'oreals Anti-Redness primer makes my skin look almost flawless, enough so that I feel confident going out with just these two products on and no foundation or tinted moisturiser. If I am going to wear foundation with this product, I apply it before so that if there's any yellow tones showing through the foundation can cancel them out.

Right Said Fred would be proud.
An Ohio woman thinks she's sexy enough to legally change her name to, well, Sexy.
Pataskala resident Ranea Crabtree refuses to use the name her parents gave her -- Sheila. And she hates it so much, she's threatened to ground her 15-year-old daughter Bethany if she uses it, according to the Columbus Dispatch.
She's now petitioning a court in Licking County (no lie) to change her first name to something she feels is more suitable.
"I wear Victoria's Secret clothes all the time," Crabtree told the newspaper. "I was like, 'Shoot, I'll just go for Sexy.'"
A decision is expected during her court appearance on Feb. 11.

Shaun Rogers looking to make impact the Giants missed out on in 2012
Shaun Rogers is usually one of the biggest anythings. Last year, as I've said before, I thought he was one of the most underrated losses of the season when his campaign ended before it began due to a calf injury in the preseason.

Ramses II is considered the most influential of the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs and is often called "Ramses the Great." The Giants hope their sequel will be just as productive.

MISHAWAKA — Bellmont's John Mahlan tripped LaPorte's Alex Stewart at the edge of the mat as the final seconds ticked off the clock in the 160-pound match to advance, and he latched onto Stewart's leg, earning the buzzer-beating takedown to secure one of five BHS spots in the semi-finals in the Al Smith Wrestling Classic.
The Braves have four more wrestlers on the consolation side and led the 32-team tourney after the first day with 128 points to the 123 of Penn and 121 of host Mishawaka.
Did you feel it?
Many Adams County residents did, starting their day with an event of seismic proportions as the rumblings of an earthquake were felt locally. A spokesman with the U.S. Geological Survey organization confirmed a magnitude 4.2 earthquake occurred in Indiana at 7:55 a.m. today and was felt in Adams County and the surrounding area.
The brief event was highlighted by a mild rumbling. And then it was over.
Charlie Abel, coach of the Bellmont High School rifle team throughout its 50 years of existence, was honored at halftime of Tuesday's boys baskeball game with the presentation of a plaque.
An open house was held at the range following the game.
An estimated 40 to 50 current and former members of the rifle team were on hand for the presentation of the plaque which noted Abel's 50 years of dedication to the sport and the school.
Herman E. Fox, 74, of Fort Wayne, died on Monday, December 27, 2010, at Parkview Hospital in Fort Wayne.
Born on August 24, 1936, in Berne, he was the son of Milo and Mary Fuchs.
He was a registered certified public accountant and owned and operated the Dairy Queen at Clinton St. and Washington Center Rd. in Fort Wayne, retiring in 2004. He was previously head controller at Industra Products and had been an accountant at Peter Eckrich and Sons, both in Fort Wayne.
Joan F. Fuhrman, 74, of Payne, Ohio and formerly of Decatur, died on Monday at Dallas Lamb Nursing Home in Payne, where she had resided for the past year.
She was born on September 6, 1936, in Monroeville to Noble and Cecil Burkhead Comment.
She is survived by two sons, Mike Fuhrman of Monroeville and Frank Fuhrman of Decatur.
Graveside services will be held at a later date.
Arrangements are by Zwick and Jahn Funeral Home, Decatur.
Clayton A. Shuck, 4, of Geneva, died Wednesday at home.
Funeral arrangements are pending at Haggard and Sefton Funeral Home, Decatur.
Charles H. "Chuck" Edgar, 83, of Decatur, died Tuesday in Woodcrest Retirement Community's nursing center.
He was born to Roy and Lillian Whitacre Edgar.
Survivors include a son, Doug Edgar of Monroe, and a daughter, Mrs. Dan (Fay) Schwartz of Middlebury, Indiana.
A memorial visitation will be held from 4-6 p.m. Thursday at Haggard and Sefton Funeral Home in Decatur, followed by a 6 p.m. funeral service.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — In a legal victory for victims' families, Ohio's highest court ruled Tuesday that a university's insurance coverage extended to a charter bus that crashed in 2007, killing five student baseball players and two others.
After five years of meticulous planning and aggressive fund-raising, spearheaded by the Berne Community Development Corporation, the Muensterberg Plaza clock tower in Berne became a reality in 2010, making it the No. 8 story of the year as chosen by employees of the Decatur Daily Democrat.
Ground was ceremoniously broken in mid-March and work on the 160-foot clock tower, funded exclusively by private donations, began almost immediately.
Bellmont guard Joe Baker drilled in two three-point shots on consecutive possessions to start the second period to give the Braves a 24-21 lead Tuesday night and the Braves never trailed thereafter enroute to a 70-63 triumph over county rival Adams Central at the Teepee.
