If your machine is beginning to show signs of wear, KRC can disassemble it, scrape all of the bearing surfaces and restore your ability to cut good parts. This is not a statement to be taken lightly. Finding someone in a shop who can scrape critical surfaces has become next to impossible. In fact, hand scraping went the way of metalworking apprenticeship programs, where hand scraping was always the introductory handshake between future craftsmen and the metal of their craft. Yet, at KRC, we still place a high value on what others might consider arcane. KRC can repair or replace most wear materials. Weather the job call for Turcite, Rulon or Moglice KRC can handle the repair. Our scrapers can restore machine tool center height and geometry back to original OEM specification onsite at your facility.

Children use their knowledge of geometry to create personal versions of Samoan Siapo bark cloth.
Invite your class to learn about Samoa, a part of Oceania. This area of about 25,000 islands in the Pacific Ocean off of Australia is inhabited by the Samoans, known for an artistic style called Siapo. Bark from a mulberry trees is pounded into very thin sheets and dried in the sun. Artists mix plant dyes and other natural materials to paint stylized designs, primarily geometric shapes, on the cloth.
To make a replica of Siapo bark cloth, provide each student with a brown paper bag. Demonstrate how to tear a large section of the bag so the edges are a bit ruffled. Ask students to crumple the paper tightly, unfold, and flatten it. This can be repeated several times so the paper is very pliable, much like fabric.
Students will cover their work space with recycled newspaper. Ask students to take note of how most Siapo fabrics have black lines that divide the area of the cloth into several small areas. Using Crayola Tempera Paint, ask students to mark their division lines.
Inside each of these areas, students will use other colors to paint geometric shapes. Participants can dab the brush inside the paper cracks. Mix Crayola Texture It! Mixing Medium with some of the paint colors, or brush it on top of painted areas. Several coats of color can be added for a variety of effects. Encourage experimentation.
Invite students to create smaller shapes on top of larger ones after the first layer of paint is slightly dry. Also suggest leaving some of the bag showing through. Add lines, dots, or any design to make the fabric style unique. Air-dry completely.
Once artwork is dry, ask students to compose a paragraph describing how they designed the original Samoan Siapo bark cloth. Display each piece with student writing in a prominent place in the classroom.

a diagnostic with a therapeutic. The agency has indicated that it wants to be flexible in what is required of sponsors, and will sometimes accept preclinical data instead of extensive clinical testing of drug combinations. FDA welcomes pre-IND consultations, especially for innovative study designs. "We still will have to show the contribution of the agents, but the encouraging part is that how we do that is something that can be discussed," as Dr. Hohneker pointed out. More effort should be made to make FDA regulations compatible with EMA regulations so as to foster global drug development, some participants suggested.
To help tackle some of the other complex legal issues linked to developing combination therapies, such as IP and indemnification, there could be more reliance on NERFs and the development of standard clauses and core principles to make legal negotiations more expedient. Identifying key decision makers, who are knowledgeable about the legal issues, can also be helpful in legal negotiations. Antitrust issues are not likely to pose barriers to collaborations among companies, particularly if they will not limit competition; if the collaborators do not already have entrenched products; if the collaboration is limited to core research efforts; and if it is possible to show benefits that the collaboration will achieve that could not be achieved as easily on an independent basis. It is possible to obtain prior guidance with the FTC or the DOJ about antitrust issues. Antitrust lawyers can also advise research and development efforts.
There are several examples of collaborations in the early development as well as the clinical testing of combination cancer therapies. These collaborations show that barriers are not insurmountable and provide examples for others to follow. Particularly notable innovative clinical testing examples are the I-SPY 2 TRIAL and the BATTLE 2 trial. Several scientific tools to aid cancer combination therapy development are available in the public domain, including GSK's epigenetic toolbox and preclinical data, NCI's mechanism-of-action assays and preclinical models for combinations, as well as the investigational agents that NCI makes available for preclinical testing.
Several participants stressed the importance of doing whatever it takes to facilitate collaboration in the development of combination investigational cancer therapies. "There is really an urgency to identify solutions for the barriers because we have patients at stake," said Dr. Hohneker. Dr. Mendelsohn agreed with the urgency to speed up combination drug development, given that "one-third of our patients will not live 5 years—that's a half-million people a year." Dr. Hohneker concluded the conference by stating, "The takeaway is that for success and learning, it takes a team of people who are very committed and passionate, and willing to work together to come up with the solutions, as well as strong collaborations, persistence, good science, and the willingness to learn."

We would like to thank the following companies for supplying and supporting us with our test system hardware and equipment: Intel, ASRock, Kingston, Mittoni, Noctua and Corsair.
When it comes to the lineup of boards we'll be looking at today, there's nothing you haven't really seen in our previous reviews with the ASRock Z68 Pro3 and Extreme4 both being present. We've also got the ASRock X58 Extreme3 and Sapphire Pure Black P67 Hydra for good measure.
When we looked at the Pro3 the main thing we wanted to know was by moving to a cheaper board, were we sacrificing performance or just some features that we maybe didn't really need when compared to the Extreme4. Today we want to know the same thing; by moving to a cheaper board again, and in this case a smaller one, are we just losing some features because of the smaller PCB, or are we also losing some performance?
The other thing we'll be looking at today when we compare the Pro3-M to other boards is the Pro3-M when we overclocked it. One thing we did find with the Pro3 was that our overclocking potential wasn't quite as strong. With smaller heatsinks on the board it didn't come as a surprise. Is moving to an mATX board going to impact out overclocking potential even further, though?
With a bit of optimism I set the multiplier to 50x hoping we could get up and running at 5GHz, which is just above what we achieved out of the Z68 Pro3, but a little lower than what we could get out of the Z68 Extreme4. While we got into Windows, as soon as we started our HyperPI run we got a BSOD a few minutes in.
Back to the BIOS, I moved the multiplier to 49x and we ended up again in Windows with no problems. Everything was up and running just fine and it was the overclock we settled on. This brought our CPU to 4.92GHz which was what we achieved on the Z68 Pro3 from ASRock. So with our overclock set and everything running smoothly, it's time to see what kind of performance we can get out of this mATX board.
Let's get started!

Classic Hamburger
From EatingWell.com
Slow-cooked onions add moisture and flavor to these lean beef burgers. A quick blend of mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, and vinegar makes a perfect tangy, sweet, and creamy "special sauce" for this burger. We love the dill relish here, but use sweet relish if you prefer it. Serve with sweet potato fries.

Ugh, so I finally got a new oven after 10 years. It has these new racks that have glides on the sides with ballerinas so the rack slides all the way out like a nice drawer. Its an Electrolux. I cannot figure out how to clean these things. What is the best way to do this without destroying the finish? I know one method is to leave them in during self clean but these new ovens have a sensor that will not let you do that. Self clean will not activate until the racks are out. Plus it will ruin the finish. I tried soap and water, soaking in a tub overnight in laundry soap and the ammonia in a plastic bag and Barkeepers friend. The problem is the glides. After soaking in the tub, it did knock off a lot of stuff, but it also made the glides squeak because it got rid of the grease put on by the manufacture. So I used a little cooking oil and they worked fine. That is until actually baked something. The oil starting baking on and dripping off creating a small mess. The glides are now yellow from burnt on oil. I the tried Ammonia. Tested it on a small toaster oven rack and wow! That stuff is amazing, sparkling clean chrome. So I did the same with my expensive oven racks and now what? Dull stained chrome. I tried polishing it up with some Bar Keepers Friend and it did help somewhat but nothing near new. Definably a lot duller then the untouched one. And to put insult to injury, I located the special high temperature lube for food grade part by the manufacture and a 4oz tube is almost $50! New racks are $150 each. Anyone have suggestions on how to clean these without damaging them? Not sure why the Ammonia made them dull. |

I would check with the place you bought the stove. If not them, go to the manufacturer and ask about the glides. The first place I look is the book that comes with the appliance....surely other people have had this problem. |
I think some people put them in a garbage bag with cold oven cleaner and leave them overnight. You could google that. On the other hand, I think you're overly concerned with oven racks sparkling like new. Obviously you want to get gunk and grime off them but once you start using any appliance, particularly an oven, it will show some wear and tear. I'll bet no one looks inside your oven except you! Learn to accept the patina on them. I've had my range for over 10 years and although I've self-cleaned the oven, I've never once bothered about the racks. The same was true for my previous range of 20 years. |
I would have no problem with a "patina" on the racks, but I'd definitely have a problem if gliding racks stopped gliding smoothly -- is that the case? |
Yes, I did check the manual from front to back, it just say make sure you remove the racks and clean them with soap and water. Went to the factory website nothing on it either other then soak a paper town with Amonia and let it sit on top of tough spots for 15 minutes. These are kind of newer thing to deal with. Any kind of soaking will eliminate the grease needed for the racks to slide. They have a factor lubricant they use for sale but like I said it $50 just for that. It has to be food safe and take temps of over 550F which most oils cant do. I looked for other brands but I cant seem to find an alternative since Electrolux has their brand name and part name on the bottle and nothing else. Dose not say what type of grease it is. If I call them I am sure the answer will be buy our product. It dose kind of smoke the first few times which they say is normal. But they will not tell me what kind of grease they use. As for clean, just curious if anyone else tried the ammonia in a bag over night trick and came out dulled finish almost like it was left in the oven during a cleaning cycle. It dose not seem like this should happen to chrome. |
FWIW, on my new Elux, I spot cleaned the gunk with 409 -- saturated a paper towel with it, and wrapped the gunky spots and left it on a couple of hours. Scrubbed it off with a ScotchBrite pad. Then soap and watered the whole rack and shoved it back in. Seemed to do okay. I don't care what my racks look like, but yeah, they have gotta glide. |
- Posted by EurekaChef (My Page) on Wed, Aug 14, 13 at 22:29
That's one of the advantages of the GE Monogram -- you can leave the racks in during the oven cleaning cycle. But the GE also comes with a small bottle of lubricant. I think it's graphite, precisely for the reason that it's very hard to get an oil that can withstand the repetitive exposure to high heat. Agree with other people's comments too that you can't expect the get the racks back to gleaming new. The goal should be just to remove caked on debris that might smoke or give off flavors to future foods being cooked. |
You're supposed to clean the racks? :-) One tip I can add is that if you want a liquid to stay on a strange shaped or tight place, try using toilet paper instead of paper towels. It gets mushy, takes any shape, and sticks well. I do this around bathroom faucets, saturating the toilet paper with vinegar to remove hard water deposits or soap scum. |
I don't know what type of grease or lubricant the manufacturer supplies, but Amazon has a number of products from Utlralube Food grade , it has a flash point of 583 F to 620 F depending on which grade you get. The website gives you the flashpoint temperatures http://www.ultralube.com/Products/H1FoodGradeProducts/H1FoodGradeChainCableLube I bought some from Amazon and used it for my door hinges on my oven and am quite happy.. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Ultra Lube Food Grade - Flash point 583 F
This is the Ultra Lube grease which has a flash point of 619F |
Here is a link that might be useful: Ultra Lube Grease
Thanks! That Ultra Lube is exactly what I was looking for. Most of the ones I found were not food grade. I am not paranoid but using some mystery chemical grease for car engines scares me because I sometime crank that oven up to 550f for pizzas. Burning mystery grease fumes is probably not a good idea. |

About Our Staff Angela Reitsma Bick, Editor-in-chief Angela Reitsma Bick began writing for Christian Courier in 2002 as a freelancer. After finishing an MA in English Lit from Queen's University, she taught English at Redeemer University College as an Adjunct professor and served as Director of its Writing Centre for three years. She became Editor of Christian Courier in 2009, having learned English grammar in Moscow, research skills in grad school and everything else on the fly. Her vision is for Christian Courier to give body to a Reformed perspective by exploring what it means to follow Jesus today in our homes, churches and schools; in our neighbourhoods and across this country. She hopes that the shared stories of God at work in the world inspire each reader to participate in the ongoing task of renewing his creation. Angela lives in Newcastle, Ontario with her husband, Allan, and three young children Email Angela Bert Witvoet, Contributing editor Bert Witvoet is a former educator and editor of various magazines, including the Christian Courier, who lives with his wife, Alice, in St. Catharines, Ontario. Email Brian Bork, Review Editor Brian Bork is CC's Review Editor and a CRC chaplain at the University of Waterloo and Sir Wilfrid Laurier University. Brian's email Cathy Smith, Columnist, Features Editor Cathy Smith is an involved member of the Wyoming Christian Reformed Church where she is the bulletin editor, mentor to the pastor, church education teacher, and jack-of-all-trades volunteer on a few too many lists.As a retired Christian schoolteacher, she thinks she should have time to indulge in extensive reading, blogging and writing, daily walks in her small town, choir, gardening, DIY projects around the house, family get-togethers and occasional travel. She does not, in fact, have the time to do all these things, but keeps trying anyway. She is both energized and humbled by Christ's call to apply his name to all these facets of everyday life. Cathy is married to Mark, a carpenter, and together they have raised three children. Presently they are empty-nesters and dotty grandparents to two little munchkins. Mark does not attend church or call himself a Christian. Cathy regards their unusual marriage, tried and tested for over thirty years, as a living and practical metaphor for the challenge of Christian discipleship in a world not yet fully redeemed. She feels privileged to be part of the CC team, participating in this unique community dialogue about following Jesus today in this advent time between the cross and the crown.

Danube River
Danube River
geographical name/
River, central Europe. The second longest European river (after the Volga), it rises in Germany's Black Forest and flows about 1,770 mi (2,850 km) to the Black Sea, passing along or through Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, and Moldova. Its many tributaries include the Drava, Tisza, and Sava rivers. It has been an important highway between central and eastern Europe from antiquity. The lower Danube is a major avenue for freight transport, and the upper Danube is an important source of hydroelectricity. A regulatory body that consists of its riparian nations was established in 1948 to oversee its use. A major hydroelectric and navigation complex was built in the 1970s at Iron Gate Gorge in Romania. A canal linking Kelheim on the Danube and Bamberg on the Main River, allowing traffic to flow between the North and Black seas, was completed in 1992.

A high pitched steady ringing is the usual effect of tinnitus. Another symptom is buzzing in the ears and this sound can vary in intensity when changing the body's position.
The clicking sound might indicates a nerve and muscle abnormality. In all situations you need medication.
It is vital for the person suffering from tinnitus to be evaluated to ensure they are not suffering from another more serious problem. This will also ensure that you will not make use of the wrong medication.
In addition, he should be evaluated and other specialized tests could be recommended.
A hearing test can help give more information about the possible cause of tinnitus. Brain imaging by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as well as computed tomography (CT) scan may also help, depending upon the reports of the medical history as well as the physical examination. If it confirms tinnitus then you should go for medication.
Supportive Methods
The good news is that there are many remedies anyone can do themselves that will help stop ringing in the ears.
The Relaxing Method is simple. There are situations in which the tinnitus is caused by stress. In this scenario, you simply relax yourself so you can stop noisy sounds.
Using Maskers you can easily deal with the buzz in your ears and drown it with another sound. Wearable sound generators are small electronic devices that fit in the ear and use a pleasant and soft sound to help mask tinnitus.
Seeking doctor's advice is really useful. It is recommended to get in touch with the doctor when the sound starts following a concussion.
Tinnitus doesn't have a cure yet but treatments that help many patients cope better with the condition are available.
Types of Medication
Medication for Tinnitus comes in different forms although their key intentions are to deal with other conditions.
First off, you should understand that though some drugs count under the tinnitus medication, they are not mainly for the said condition. Meaning, they are meant for something else; they just occur to indirectly lessen the symptoms of tinnitus.
Here's a quick list of the common tinnitus medication:
As you know, Benadryl is an antihistamine. This can be bought without prescription to treat allergies. Compared with other medication, Benadryl has fewer side effects. Some doctors recommend taking it when they suspect the person hears ringing or buzzing due to an allergy.
Klonopin, Valium, and Xanax are all drugs which were originally formulated to treat anxiety and depression. However, sometimes they are prescribed to lower the volume of irritating noises in the ears. The problems with these drugs is that they are like antihistamines. They may as well encourage drug dependency. They are absolutely not good for people who need to stay attentive for their jobs.None of them can definately make tinnitus go away.
Phenytoin, Tegretol, Valporic Acid, Primidone are collectively recognized as anticonvulsants. All these have shown some efficiency when it comes to tinnitus. However, may also come with risky side effects that can badly put your health at risk.
These are the drugs commonly used as medication to treat tinnitus. Having learned of brief descriptions, you already have an idea whether the profit of taking them outweigh the risks.
Instead of wasting your time and money on something synthetic and harmful, why not go natural instead?

Swiss Study Suggests Sugar Is the Root of Various Health Problems
Obesity levels have reached their historically highest point--surpassing hunger as a global problem--and type 2 diabetes cases could triple by 2050, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
That prediction of a threefold increase--and diabetes levels right now account for more than 10 percent of all healthcare spending--is making doctors take another look at the reason behind the rise in diabetes and obesity--and sugar seems to be the likely culprit.
Not only detrimental to global health, sugar is ultimately having a big impact on the economic welfare of the world, as well.
According to a Swiss study surveying doctors worldwide, almost 90 percent believe obesity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and related nutritional issues--and the rising health care costs that accompany such health concerns--are tied to sugar consumption.
"Although causality is difficult to prove in this area, with such a high percentage of doctors in our proprietary survey confident of this strong link, we cannot ignore the significance and the implications for society and our economy," says Stefano Natella, co-head of the Credit Suisse Research Institute's Securities Research & Analytics department and an author of the study, "Sugar: Consumption at a Crossroads."
The report, in part aimed at prepping businesses for future consumer trends away from sugar consumption, surveyed general practitioners, consumers, and industry experts in the United States, Europe, and Asia.
The survey found that globally, the United States, Brazil, Argentina, Australia, and Mexico consume the most sugar--almost twice the world average of 17 teaspoons a day--and significantly more than the American Heart Association recommendation of six added teaspoons of sugar a day for women and nine for men.
"Although consumption varies considerably from country to country, current intake of added sugars is well above these recommended levels in several developed and developing countries," Natella said.
Those added sugars, almost half from sweetened beverages, now make up about 17 percent of a normal U.S. diet, and play a big part in our dubious distinction as the country with the highest rate of obesity.
A majority of doctors surveyed said that sugar is addictive, putting it in a category similar to alcohol and tobacco, and experts suggested taxing sugary snacks and drinks in the same way as cigarettes or booze as a way to help pay for escalating health care costs.
But even as the numbers seem completely dire, the sugar study found that consumers are slowly waking up from their sugar comas and are beginning to look at healthier choices to meet their sweet needs.
"Within certain segments of the population, we are already seeing a reduction in consumption," Natella said.
In response to consumer demand, companies are beginning to self-regulate as well, and are looking toward other sweetening options in advance of both regulations and public shifts away from sugar consumption.
The process, though, will be slow, experts say, especially given that doctors worldwide are not always on the same page when it comes to the dangers of too much sugar.
"We expect growth in sugar consumption, which has paralleled that of the growth in the world population at around two percent a year, to come under pressure," Natella said, "even though it may take a few years."

Visit the open-air market of Caltanissetta
Take a drive to the small historic city of Cantanissetta in the center of Sicily. We'll visit the open-air farmers market and walk through the town as the market streets come to life with old vendors shouting out to promote their beautiful artichokes, eggplants, and fava beans. At the end of the market, you'll follow Fabrizia up a small cobblestone street to a family-owned pastry shop to taste one of Cantanissetta's specialties. The "ravioli dolci" is a deep fried spiral pastry made with lard then shaped like a raviolo, filled with sweet ricotta cream and smothered in honey.

Why Otis Died
A little over a year ago, my pet cockatiel, Otis, passed away. Otis and I had only known each other for a couple of years (I was his 3rd owner), and he was quite a neurotic bird, already quite damaged by living in so many different locales with so many different owners.
I still wondered exactly why Otis died, though. He had plenty of food and plenty of water. I cleaned his cage out regularly and took him out to play with him often. He wasn't super old or anything… So what, exactly, did Otis die of? I feel like I have now discovered the answer…
My alarm clock.
Yesterday I came home from being away for a day, plopped down on my bed to go to sleep and realized that my alarm was still set for the insanely early hour I had woken up a few days before. But when you turn my alarm off, instead of disabling itself entirely, it just reset itself for the next morning.
So what happens when my alarm clock goes off and no one is around to hear it? (A tree falls in the forest?) It goes off for AN HOUR and then turns itself off.
After thinking about this for a while, I realized that I left home a lot during the time Otis was at my house. Then I put myself in Otis' shoes, and have come to the conclusion that Otis died from excessive alarm clock buzzing. (yeah, it's a pretty annoying alarm clock)
R-I-P, Mr. Otis.

News Briefs
• AGC warns materials prices going up sharply. The Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) is warning owners, budget setters, and contractors to expect greater materials and labor cost increases in 2008 than they have experienced in the past 12 months. "The worsening slide in homebuilding and turmoil in the credit markets threaten some types of nonresidential construction. At the same time, some materials costs are beginning to turn up again, and labor costs have started to accelerate," said AGC chief economist Kenneth Simonson.
• London could lose almost half of planned office buildings. CB Richard Ellis, the world's biggest property agent, says the current financial crisis could lead to a major downgrade in the number of office buildings built in London's financial center. The report estimates that instead of the planned 4.5 million sf of new offices completed in and around the city per year, just 2.5 million sf will be built. That's like losing two to four skyscrapers a year between 2009 and 2011.
• Schwarzenegger signs a slew of green building laws. Environmental groups are pleased with the number of bills California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed last month as the 2007 state legislative session came to an end. Schwarzenegger signed 18 of 25 bills on the Sierra Club's priority list, or 72%—the highest in the four years since the Republican took office. One new law will require more energy-efficient indoor light bulbs by 2009. Another will require toilets to use less water. Schwarzenegger did, however, veto a bill that would have imposed the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED Gold rating standard on commercial structures of more than 50,000 square feet in California.
• Silverstein plans another Ground Zero project. World Trade Center developer Larry Silverstein is planning to build luxury condominiums, a five-star hotel, and restaurant just a block from the trade center site. Silverstein has selected architect Robert A.M. Stern, dean of the Yale School of Architecture, to design the hotel and residential tower on the site.
• Swastika-shaped Navy barracks to get makeover. The U.S. Navy will spend as much as $687,000 to modify the appearance of a 1967 barracks in Coronado, Calif., that resembles a swastika from the air. The Navy approved the spending for changes to the four L-shaped buildings' walkways, landscaping, and rooftop solar panels after satellite images from Google Earth revealed the swastika-like aerial view.
• Green Building Initiative releases new version of Green Globes. The Green Building Initiative has released an update of its Green Globes environmental rating system that will streamline design entry and review. Green Globes users will be able to see changes to their scores during the entire process. The interface also has a new project dashboard. www.thegbi.org For more: www.BDCnetwork.com.
• Mesirow Financial to offer green building insurance.Mesirow Financial is offering green insurance to help green building owners deal with an evolving set of risks that are specific to sustainably designed buildings. Mesirow is the second company to offer green insurance. A year ago, Fireman's Fund started giving 5% discounts on property insurance for LEED-rated buildings.
• Orlando pays $500,000 to make sure its new arena is toxin-free. The city of Orlando will pay a consultant $500,000 to make sure there is no pollution lurking under the sneakers of the Orlando Magic when the team moves to its new home court. The Orlando City Council recently voted to hire Geo-Cleanse International of New Jersey to clean up chemical contamination in underground water and topsoil at the site of the city's future downtown arena.
• Nonresidential construction adds 10,000 more jobs in September. Nonresidential builders and their subcontractors added 10,000 more jobs in September after two months of no net hiring, according to the latest jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Homebuilding jobs fell another 20,000 bringing the decline in the last three months to nearly 50,000. For more: www.BDCnetwork.com.

Good morning, I received a great quote from A J Madison on an Electrolux double oven--but ratings for them on reseller ratings are grim. Wondered if anyone has had experience with them, or has another to recommend. The savings were about $1,000--seems too good to be true Thanks John |
Follow-Up Postings:
There have been several recent threads. Search this forum and the Kitchens forum. My own experience has been positive so far but it is not over yet (waiting for a defective part to be replaced), so I do not want to report prematurely. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Recent AJ Madison review
There are negative reviews too (see link). But AJM might have changed their carrier since 2009. My delivery service was nothing like that. I actually had a nightmare delivery experience with a different and very high-end company just a few weeks before that, so I was surprised and extremely pleased with AJM delivery. No muss, no fuss, they brought the stuff inside and waited till I unpacked and carefully examined the stuff. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Older negative review
I bought an Electrolux range from AJM, delivered in August 2011. No issues (just plugged it in for the first time last week -- this remodel has taken forever). My neighbor bought a Dacor fridge from them, no problems. |
I always buy from a local appliance store. My choice was affirmed when my new Advantium oven had a broken door hinge out of the box. I can't imagine what would've happened if I had bought online. The local store sent a guy to fix the oven and he didn't have the right tools. He scratched the door of the oven and the store manager replaced the oven, no questions asked. We took the scratched oven back, picked up the new one, and re-installed it ourselves. Appliances are not as well-made or reliable as they used to be. Buying locally is my insurance policy in case of issues with purchases. |
Mostly true but what if you want something not sold locally? |
With more sleuthing, the $ difference is much less than I thought, and for a few Hundred $, I agree that a local store is the wise choice Thanks for you input |
- Posted by homeimprovementmom (My Page) on Tue, Apr 23, 13 at 16:45
is AJ Madison selling only used items? is that what you mean by reseller? |
Reseller ratings is a website that tracks performance of online merchants. AJMadison has a score in the high 4's (out of ten) which is not good |
It comes down to what your priorities are. For some saving hundred if not thousands is worth the risk that you might have to spend a little more effort getting something corrected if there is an issue. Others would rather just spend more money from the start for convenience. Personally I think its a waste of money to pay for the ease of returns to a local store. Dealing with AJ Madison is not all that difficult. Inspect the item when it is delivered. If there is an issue reject delivery and AJ Madison will contact you to solve the issue. |
I've ordered 2 times from AJ Madison and both times I was satisfied with the customer service and delivery. One time one of the appliances needed service under warranty and it was not a problem getting it service. |

I purchased a new security screen door to replace the old ugly one on our home. I also bought the special tool that claims to remove as well as drive in the one way screws. Of course, it doesn't work at all, even if I press very hard. I have read so many tips on the internet but so far can't budge these things! It doesn't help that they have been painted over at some point and have been there for some time. I tried - vice grips and various pliers. The edge of the screws do not protrude enough to get any grip. There is also almost no room to work in the area between the adjacent wall and the door jam. - filing 2 opposite sides of the screw head to create flat areas to use vice grips - same problem as above I couldn't effectively file. So now I am left with the remaining 2 options: A. use dremel type tool to create a slot on the screw so I can back them out like a normal screw B. drill the screws out using appropriate drill bits Either of these options would require me to purchase some tools - either a dremel and attachments or special drill bits. I don't mind adding to my tool collection but I'd like to choose the right approach. I am concerned that with A the screws may still not budge and with B that when I go to install the new security door if the screw areas overlap I may have problems. Has anyone successfully accomplished this and what do you suggest? |

Have you tried a airokroll or a lubricant that will break rusted or seized threads? The screws are most likely hardened which may make them tougher to drill out as well |
millworkman, no I haven't heard of those products - I will pick some up when I go to the hardware store. It will be very difficult to get it into the affected are since the screws are tight up against the metal jamb, so working any material in to where the threads are may be difficult. Do you recommend the "make a slot" method then or are you saying that this stuff may do the trick on it's own - and the methods I already tried? The screws are definitely hardened into place and probably rusted in there, too. |
Just use a fine file to cut slots. Get a needle file that only has teeth on the two thin edges to cut the slots. A Dremel with a cut off wheel will work also, but requires VERY careful handling to cut the slot. if you try this use the highest speed the tool has ad make repeated shallow cuts. Small screws like this are very difficult to drill out. What are the screws driven into? If they are in wood the various lubricants rarely work. The wood swells up and grabs the screw even tighter. You may have to resort to a cats paw and brute force to pry things apart and then repair the damage. |
- Posted by Geoffrey_B (My Page) on Tue, Apr 9, 13 at 13:24
How about a screw extractor? These are left hand thread. You drill a hole in the center of the screw head, then insert the extractor, which tightens as you turn counter clock wise. No matter what - it's not an easy job! |
"How about a screw extractor? " They rarely work well on small screws. |
What is the purpose of the existing screws? Can you drill the heads out and remove what they are holding in place, then remove the shafts with a visegrip? You don't need special tools to drill out screw heads: just a center punch and a succession of regular drill bits. |
- Posted by bus_driver (My Page) on Tue, Apr 9, 13 at 17:14
While many homeowners do not have gas-shielded MIG welders, welding a washer or nut to the screw head affords something to be gripped with a tool and the heat breaks the grip of the rust. You could explore hiring someone to do the welding. My equipment is semi-portable. |
To answer some questions here: 1. the screws are not very small, the heads are about 1" diameter and look the same as the new screws that come with the new door, which are about 1/4" threads. But, maybe too small for an extractor? 2. the purpose of the screws is to hold the existing security door to the door frame, obviously they are doing their job well! 3. the screws go through a metal door frame of the security door into the stucco exterior and under that into the wood door jam/studs. So yes they are probably stuck into the wood. Maybe I will have better luck in drier weather? kudzu9, drilling out/removing the heads seems like the most likely solution at this point... |
tinan- Good luck. I just used that method to remove a grill around a microwave where someone had screwed up the heads driving them in. Just make sure to center punch them so your bit doesn't wander off-center when you start in. |
"the heads are about 1" diameter" That would be huge screw. Like 1/2 inch plus shank. |
They are large, 3/4" heads now that I am home I measured them. I can't see the shank, of course. I bought a set of drill bits/extractors at the hardware store, I drilled a pilot hole and attempted extraction, the tip of the extractor tool broke off inside, and the screw didn't budge! I have been able to get a few of the screws out with vice grips alone, but some of them are really stuck. I'll try those loosening lubricants, they could be stuck/rusted to the metal door frame they pass through. So far the best success had been the vice grips on the screws in more accessible spots. Others are hard to grip because of the tapered dome head, so if I can file away enough metal on opposite sides I may be able to get those too. The problem is the screw heads are very flat and shallow - to prevent burglars from doing just this! I do not have welding equipment or experience, so welding a nut on is out. I just found this video, this looks like it will really work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_B4iRpBe7U Off to the hardware store to return the crappy extractors they sold me (I told them what I needed to do and they recommended those) and get some tile nippers to try the youtube method. |
Here is a link that might be useful: One way security screws
Buy a cheap harbor freight or ace hdw angle grinder, and a fiber metal cutting blade and cut a grove for a strait blade screwdriver, back the screws out. |

The YouTube video is interesting but a pair of Vise-Grips isn't going to cut it on a severely rusted bolt. I just tried with some carriage bolts and ended up cutting a slot. If you go with a right angle grinder, you'll need what's called a "slicer" wheel. A Demel might be a better choice for a novice. Then a big screw driver with a square shank. Put a wrench on the shank for additional leverage. They do sell tools to remove these screws although I don't know how well they're going to work with rusted bolts. I do like the idea of welding a nut onto the head of the bolt. Obviously not everyone has a welder but your local rental shop probably does. |
No I don't have a welder and I don't have experience with one so I do t feel confortable renting one. If it came to that I'd have to hire someone. The screws I could grip came out nicely with the vice grips so I think the issue is less rust/binding and more just lack of grip. |
- Posted by bus_driver (My Page) on Wed, Apr 10, 13 at 11:32
While my technique is a bit different, this shows the concept. This video uses stick electrodes which I also use for 1/2" or larger bolts. Notice that the time actually involved is quite short- most of the video is explaining things. Fast and it works about 99% of the time. For bolts/screws on vertical surfaces, I tack a little "handle" on the nut or washer for holding it in place with pliers or glove and for the initial rotation of the bolt/screw. Then break off the handle and it will not interfere with turning the bolt/screw in tight places. |

Just an update - the tile nippers would have been great but the jaws did not open wide enough. I got some cutting pliers but the beveled edge on the outside prevented getting a grip on the flat head, flush with the frame. Finally I just went back to my trusty old vice grips and with some patience each day after work for an hour or so, I was able to get all but 1 of the screws turning and partway out (I can't remove them until all are loose as I don't want to have a half-off door!). Just one very stubborn screw left, but I got it to move a bit today so I have hope! I just hope that the installation of the new door is easier than the removal of the old :) |
It's off!!! I ended up getting all the screws out with vice grips except the last one, I finally gave up on it and took the rest out, then used the leverage of the metal door frame to pull the last one out a bit so I could get a hacksaw blade in behind the frame and cut the bolt off there. Now I touched up the paint and ready to install the new door this weekend - hope it's easier to put on than it was to take the old one off! |
I ran into the same issue with trying to remove a security door and window. The screws had been in the house for >60 years and painted several times, so in addition to being rusted, they were especially sticky. I tried many things that didn't work and found one approach that worked really well. What worked: What did not work: |

SECURITY screw not door! |

SARANAC LAKE — Winter Storm Nemo prompted many North Country schools to announce Friday closures today, a rare measure in a region accustomed to snow and cold.
Preparations were under way in every community for impending Nemo, a name that seemed to go along perfectly with the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival "Under the Sea" theme this year.
In keeping with the tradition of toughness, the outdoor movies on the carnival schedule, set for 6 to 7 p.m. today in Saranac Lake's Berkeley Green, would roll regardless of the weather, organizers said Thursday in a press release, unless "it is snowing so hard the videos can't be projected onto the screen."
"It's a crazy idea," Village Trustee and Carnival Committee member Barb Rice said of outdoor movies in February, "but we thought that if there is one place where a winter outdoor movie would actually work and people would actually brave the cold, it's Saranac Lake."
Planned are a collection of short family friendly videos instead of a full-length movie so the audience can drop in for short intervals. An open fire will be handy for roasting marshmallows, and hot chocolate will be served to help ward off the cold — the forecast for today is a high of 18 degrees.
"Despite rumors swirling about like a tidal whirlpool, all Saranac Lake Winter Carnival events will go on as planned, even with Winter Storm Nemo lurking in the Atlantic waters," Winter Carnival Chairman Jeff Dickson said in a statement.
"Yet we certainly caution people to travel with care. We want everyone to arrive in Saranac Lake safely."
Nemo is poised to drop anywhere from 8 to a possible 16 inches of snow throughout the North Country, with higher amounts possible.
The National Weather Service sent alerts saying snow would start falling in northern New York at around 10 p.m. tonight and spread east. Area roads are expected to become hazardous after midnight and remain slick, especially during today's commutes.
Snow could fall as fast as 1 inch per hour.
Add to that winds blowing at 10 to 20 miles an hour with gusts to 35, and there was potential for white-out driving conditions. Visibility would be less than half a mile in heavier snow, the Weather Service advised.
A concern in the Adirondacks is that wind chills could drop air temperatures to minus 17 Fahrenheit on Saturday, meaning the threat of frostbite is high.
But in Lake Placid, the Empire State Winter Games were on and no delays announced as of Thursday. The Luge World Cup races also would also be held as scheduled, organizers said.
The mountain crews at Whiteface Resort and other nearby ski areas were jumping for joy, this being the first major powder of 2013.
The Titus Mountain website posted "Snow is Coming" in giant letters across the top page.
But elsewhere, organizations, state offices, schools and other groups were adjusting to expected wild weather.
Numerous cancellations and postponements flew via email on Thursday, among them, on Friday, Project CONNECT, the after-school program in Plattsburgh City Schools and the Bluegrass Gospel Project concert at the Peru Community Church Coffeehouse.
All Civil Service exams set for Saturday, including at Saranac Lake High School were postponed, with the date changed to Feb. 16.
SUNY Plattsburgh canceled the Omicron Delta Kappa Circle Leadership Society conference slated to bring students from 14 area high schools on Saturday.
The Wild Center in Tupper Lake won't put on its Saturday Adirondack Ice presentation, but the museum would remain open, a press release said.
And North Country Cultural Center for the Arts in Plattsburgh canceled the "Encore" senior citizen/Girl Scout exhibition opening for this weekend. There will be a closing reception at 5:30 p.m. March 8 instead.
In Saranac Lake, while Dickson remained confident that the carnival would weather Nemo unscathed, he did say any cancellation of carnival events would be posted at www.saranaclakewintercarnival.com.
New York State Electric and Gas made storm preparations throughout the region Thursday, including sending out reminders for safety should people lose power.
▶ Keep flashlights, a battery-powered radio or TV and fresh batteries handy.
▶ Have at least one telephone that is not dependent on electricity, as cordless phones won't work during a power interruption.
▶ Keep a supply of nonperishable food and bottled water on hand.
▶ Make sure cellphone batteries are fully charged.

The management of pain is a continuing public health problem. Pain of all descriptions is one of the most frequently encountered complaints in physicians' offices, hospitals, chronic care facilities, and nursing homes. Virtually all health care professionals encounter patients with pain, whether it is acute or chronic; is due to trauma, surgery, arthritis, cancer, or other illnesses; or occurs as part of daily life or at the end of life. According to a World Health Organization study involving numerous countries, 22% of primary care patients reported persistent pain.1 Schnitzer2 reported that 75 million US adults experience chronic pain. Pain is difficult to document or study in some groups, such as children3,4 and neonates5 and older persons, but it does occur.6
