Apricot Flaky Scones
This Recipe Is:
These not-too-sweet scones have a crispy exterior and a fluffy, buttery interior studded with dried apricots and pistachios.
3 cups
all-purpose flour
1/3 cup
granulated sugar, plus 2 tablespoons
2 1/2 teaspoons
baking powder
3/4 teaspoon
1/2 teaspoon
baking soda
6 ounces
cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 cup
plus 2 tablespoons moist dried apricots, finely diced to yield 3/4 cup
1/2 cup
unsalted, shelled pistachio nuts, coarsely chopped, optional
2 teaspoons
finely grated orange zest
1 cup
well-shaken buttermilk, plus 2 tablespoons
3 tablespoons
turbinado or other raw sugar
- Before baking: Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
- To make scones: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda and whisk to blend. Scatter butter pieces over the flour mixture. With a pastry blender, cut in the butter just until the majority of the butter chunks range in size from peas to coarse crumbs. Stir in the apricots and nuts, if using.
- Stir orange zest into buttermilk, and drizzle half of the buttermilk evenly over the surface of the flour mixture. Toss lightly with a fork. Then add remaining buttermilk and toss until mixture comes together in a shaggy mass. If any areas remain dry, gradually add more buttermilk, 1 to 2 teaspoons at a time, tossing lightly to distribute the buttermilk. With lightly floured hands, transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface, shape into a rough, semi-cohesive mass, and knead gently about three times.
- On the lightly floured surface, roll out dough into a 12 by 5-inch rectangle. Fold dough into thirds like a business letter; working from a short end, lift bottom one-third of the rectangle up over the center and then fold top third down to cover. This folding creates layers of dough and fat, so the scones will puff up slightly as they bake and will have a flaky texture. Roll out the dough again into a 14 by 5 1/2 by 3/4-inch rectangle. Transfer it to a baking sheet, place a piece of plastic wrap on top, and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes, to rest and to partially chill the dough.
- Carefully transfer the chilled dough to a cutting board. Cut small wedges with a sharp knife. You'll have 11 to 13 of them, depending upon how large you cut them. Place wedges, about 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. (Depending upon the size of your baking sheet, you might need to use two pans.) Gently press the 2 end pieces from the rectangle together to form a wedge, and add it to the others on the baking sheet.
- To glaze scones: Brush tops of scones with buttermilk and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake scones until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer scones to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature the same day they are baked.

On This PageSummary
This article contains information about how to troubleshoot and eliminate
invalid page faults that occur in module Kernel32.dll when you work with a
Microsoft Office program under Microsoft Windows 98. A Kernel32.dll message
will be similar to the following:
Program name caused an invalid page fault in module Kernel32.dll

More information
When an invalid page fault occurs, an unexpected event occurs in the
Microsoft Windows operating system. An invalid page fault indicates that a
program improperly tried to use random access memory (for example, when
a program or a Windows component reads or writes to a memory location that
is not allocated to it). When this occurs, the program can potentially
overwrite and corrupt other program code in that area of memory.
An invalid page fault may occur when parameters are passed between programs and the Windows 98 operating system. An invalid parameter may cause a program to run invalid instructions, which results in an invalid page fault. This behavior usually occurs because a program incorrectly passes data that Windows or a Windows-based program cannot interpret. Important Follow the steps in each of the sections in this article in the order in which they are presented. Because invalid page faults are typically caused when two or more programs interact, skipping steps may increase the time it take to identify the problem. Determine If the Problem Is DocumentedMany Kernel32.dll errors are already documented in the Microsoft Knowledge Base and have solutions. For more information, query on the following words in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
"invalid page fault" kernel32.dll Note It may be helpful to add the program name in which the problem occurs at the end of the query to narrow your search.

Do Not Install Clip Art, Binder and Find FastOn some systems, cancellation of the installation of Clip Art, Binder, and Find Fast will resolve this problem during Setup.These components are installed with a Typical or Custom installation. You must perform a Custom installation and choose not to install these components. To do this, follow these steps:
Check for a Valid Temporary Folder and Excess Temporary FilesThere should be at least 10 megabytes (MB) of free space on the hard disk drive that contains the temporary folder. To check for a temporary folder and delete excess files from that folder, follow these steps:
Start Windows in Safe ModeWindows 98 has a built-in troubleshooting mode called Safe mode. It bypasses startup files and uses only basic system drivers, including basic networking. When you start Windows in Safe mode, Windows uses only the mouse, keyboard, and standard video graphics adapter (VGA) device drivers. This makes Safe mode useful for isolating and resolving error conditions that are caused by both real-mode and Windows-based drivers. Windows 98 also has troubleshooting features that may help you identify the problem. To start Windows 98 in Safe mode and make the additional troubleshooting features available, follow these steps:
For more information about how to install real-mode drivers for the CD-ROM, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
Protected-mode CD-ROM drive support in Windows
Installing real mode CD-ROM drivers for Office installation
Check the Hard Disk for Disk Errors and FragmentationUse the ScanDisk program to check the hard disk drive for lost clusters and other file allocation table (FAT) errors and test the hard disk drive integrity. You can also use the ScanDisk program to repair any of these problems. To run ScanDisk, follow these steps:
Disable the CD-ROM Drive CacheIf the error message appears while you are reading from a CD-ROM drive, try disabling the CD-ROM drive cache. This may make the drive more reliable but reduce performance. To disable the CD-ROM drive cache, follow these steps:
Verify That the Compact Disc Is Clean and UnscratchedIf the error message appears while you are installing from a compact disc, verify that the compact disc you are using is clean. You can wipe the compact disc with a soft, lint-free cloth. Also ensure that there are no large scratches on the compact disc. If the compact disc is damaged and unreadable, error messages may appear during installation.For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 174713
Troubleshooting installation from compact disc media
Check for a Corrupted Swap FileThe Kernel32.dll error may also appear if your Windows swap file is corrupted. To create a new swap file, restart the computer in MS-DOS mode, delete the Win386.swp file in the Windows folder, and then restart the computer. To create a new swap file, follow these steps:
Corrupted Custom ProfileCorrupted custom profiles have also been known to cause Kernel32.dll errors. Deleting and re-creating the profile can possibly resolve this problem.If you are using the Microsoft Office 97 system policy templates that are included in the Microsoft Office 97 Resource Kit, you must use the version of the System Policy Editor that is included in the Microsoft Office 97 Resource Kit or the Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Resource Kit. Use the Office 97 Templates for Windows 95 for Microsoft Windows 98. Note You can download Policy.exe, a self-extracting executable file containing Poledit.exe, from online services. Download this file from the following Microsoft World Wide Web site: MS Office 97 Resource Kit Tools and Utilities
Remove and Reinstall the ProgramIf the problem occurs after you run the Setup program, some of the dynamic link library (DLL) files may be damaged or corrupted. To troubleshoot this problem, completely remove the program.For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 133274
After you completely remove the program, reinstall the program.
Setup "Remove All" doesn't remove all files
Check for Software UpdatesOutdated and incompatible software may also cause error messages to appear. Check with the manufacturer of the computer for various software updates, such as BIOS updates, OEM Windows updates, and hardware driver updates (such as CD-ROM drive drivers). If you are using third-party partitioning software (for example, EZDrive, or Ontrack Disk Manager), verify that you have the most recent versions of these products.The third-party products that this article discusses are manufactured by companies that are independent of Microsoft. Microsoft makes no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding the performance or reliability of these products. For more information about hardware and software vendor contact information, visit the following Microsoft Web site: -
Scan the Computer for VirusesIf a virus is present on your computer and has damaged some files, Kernel32.dll error messages may appear when you use a program. Scan the hard disk drive and floppy disks with a virus detector. If the virus detector finds a virus on your computer, remove the virus before you run the Office program again. If a virus is found on your Setup disk, you must obtain a new set of disks.Note Do not run a virus detector terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) program while you run any of the Microsoft Office programs, including the Setup program. Run a virus detector before you run the Setup program, and then disable it. Check for Registry CorruptionWarning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.When you start Windows 98 in Safe mode, Windows does not read the entire registry. Therefore, damage to the registry may not be evident when you run Windows in this mode. It may be necessary to replace the existing registry (System.dat) with a backup to determine whether the problem is caused by a damaged registry. Use one of the following methods to troubleshoot a damaged registry. Method 1: Use Registry CheckerWindows 98 includes a tool called Registry Checker that can scan your registry for corruption, and, if necessary, restore a backup of the registry. Follow these steps to use Registry Checker to scan your registry:
For more information about Registry Checker, click the following article numbers to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 183887
Description of the Windows Registry Checker tool (Scanreg.exe)
How to customize Registry Checker tool settings
Description of Microsoft System Information (Msinfo32.exe) tool
Method 2 - Restore the System.1st FileWarning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk. To restore your System.1st file, follow these steps:
If replacing the System.dat file with the System.1st file resolves the issue, the problem may be related to registry damage. Note that you may have to reinstall programs and device drivers that you installed after you installed Windows 98 to update the new registry. If the issue is not resolved, restore the original registry. To do this, follow these steps:
Disable DMA for the CD-ROM During InstallationThere are unconfirmed reports that disabling Direct Memory Access in Device Manager for some CD-ROM drives may prevent Kernel32.dll errors.For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 190630
Kernel32.dll and other error messages when you install Office 2000 products with Direct Memory Access (DMA) enabled on Windows 95 or Windows 98
Reinstall Windows in a New FolderUse this method only after you try all of the troubleshooting steps in this article. If you reinstall Windows in a new folder, you must reinstall all Windows-based programs under the new Windows 98 installation.For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 190040
Installing Win 98 to new folder to t-shoot Office problems
Disable Enhanced BIOS FeaturesMost computers have several enhanced settings that allow the computer to fully use the computer hardware. These high-speed settings can cause the system to become unstable; disabling these features may make the computer more stable. Contact your computer manufacturer for information about entering the basic input/output system (BIOS) and changing the BIOS settings. You can enter the BIOS on most systems immediately after turning on the power. Usually a keystroke (such as DEL) is required to enter the BIOS. Below are the common features that can interfere with Microsoft Office programs:
Memory Shadow RAM
Newer chipsets may have more advanced features (such as memory wait states)
that may cause errors. Most BIOS installation programs have an option to
load the BIOS default settings. This option usually disables all advanced
Video Shadow RAM Internal Cache External Cache Built-in Virus Protection Warning Incorrectly altering hardware BIOS settings can cause serious problems that may cause your computer to fail to start or function properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems that result from the incorrect setting of hardware BIOS options can be solved. Alter the hardware BIOS settings at your own risk. Check HardwareIf you exhaust all other troubleshooting steps and you are still receiving error messages, it is possible that one or more pieces of your hardware are incompatible with Windows 98 or are damaged. To identify a problem with your computer hardware, contact your computer vendor.Badly seated memory or bad memory has been reported to cause Kernel32.dll error messages. Switching memory around in the motherboard memory banks has been known to correct some of these issues. Properties |

On June 14th I posted on Murdoch: Adopting a dog ...wrong breed or not???...To be brief he's a hunting dog (Griffon de Korthals) that my brother couldn't keep anymore and I decided to take him. He's not a dog for me as I was explaining in my previous post but I am doing well with him or so I thought.
I have 2 other dogs and 11 cats (all rescued animals). From the start I could see there was some 'friction' between Murdoch and Sushi (the female cat that was bitten) but I was severe with Murdoch to behave correctly and it always worked he left her alone when I scolded him. A week ago I heard Murdoch yelped in pain and I rushed to see what it was and he was rubbing his eye with his paw so I thought...a cat scratched his eye...I thought it was Sushi but I am not certain. Fortunately he was scratched on the outside of his eye. Now today I noticed Sushi has a wound on her neck and there was blood in the house here and there and I was very upset when I saw her neck.
I want it so much to work for him and for me. There's no problem with the dogs and the 10 other cats...Just an hour ago, Boots one of my male cats was lying down next to Murdoch and some cats rub themselves on his legs. My question is this: should I take the chance to work with him and keep him or do you think being a hunting dog he might one day just kill one of my cats? I know once I'm settled over there, he will get plenty of exercise so when he'll come in the house, he will be tired Sorry for the long post, kind of exhausted and a bit shaken by what has happened. I was very surprised he did this to the cat. I have a vet appointment tomorrow. For the time being I flushed the wound several times with a serynge of lukewarm water and put Proviodine. I had some Clavamox so I gave her one pill today and the vet will probably prescribe some of that or Baytril or gave her an injection and shave her around the wound. I rescued cats that were bitten by cats and usually that's what the vet did. Never thought it would happen to my indoor cat. Thank you, Anicee |
Follow-Up Postings:
I think you'll see personality clashes in pets just as much as in people. But when you add a dog with a prey drive to the mix, and you're too busy to provide exercise and play, then you're asking for trouble. You have a LOT of pets already. Now the dog knows that it can attack a cat-whether you punish it or not-it won't be able to connect any punishment with its attack-your cats are in danger. Do the cats a favour and get that poor dog into a foster home where it's given the care it needs without endangering other pets. You can't be responsible for every homeless animal, let someone else have a turn. Good luck. |
Thank you harebell for your input. I am so not neglecting this dog. I actually chose a house for my pets because I can't live without them and I am not a hoarder. I bought a big farmhouse on 5 acres and I am moving next week. It is hard right now because I am packing, once over there I will have time. I am retired and have all the time in the world for my animals, I don't travel. All my money goes to the welfare of my animals. As for my cats, I was fostering them and was not able to find good homes so I kept them. My intention is not to get more cats or dogs. Murdoch was my brother's dog and he was to bring him at the SPCA at the worst time ever in the year in July when the shelters are overcrowded. I am not trying to defend myself but wanted to clarify some points. Anicee |
Here are some things you need to consider. I have 5 acres also but even with the one cat and one dog I can't let them out to run free. I have neighbors close enough that I don't want the dog being an unwanted visitor plus, if my dog was caught chasing their livestock they have the right to shoot him. I also have coyotes....some large as wolves so I know my dog, not to mention the cat, don't stand a chance if they came across a coyote. With a sight/scent hound such as your dog, you're going to need to keep control of him on your property. If you have the means to fence the property, then that's great, but if you can only fence the yard, then you're back to square one with a dog not getting the exercise he needs. Another thought is how are you going to house them in the dead of winter? Will the dogs be able to get out and will you be able to get out with them for the exercise? At the moment, I wouldn't trust him with your cats. |
Those are all very good points to make. However......just because a dog is bred for the hunt, it does not make him necessarily aggressive toward smaller animals like cats. Pointing and retrieving are not the same as bred to fight or kill. My son's labradors and daughter's beagles are all very cat friendly. My little lurcher, however has come from a line of dogs with both sight-hound and terrier instincts. I'll never trust him around cats if I am not present and when I had adult cats, had to put them in another part of the house if we were not right there with him just to be sure. We don't know what other interactions you have seen between the cats and Murdoch. Both of these sound like you are drawing conclusions. You are not for sure Sushi nailed Murdoch in the eye, and you didn't witness the cat being injured. Were there other instances you've had with him where you have seen him express aggression with your cats? It sounds like there may have been. A dog who has not been around cats will usually test the waters to see where he fits in socially and often a swipe or two by an indignant cat will resolve the pecking order. All that being said, if this dog really does have aggressive tendencies he may never be safe to be around a cat. Some dogs are just not cat friendly....period whether it's breed related or not. Until you have resolved that question beyond any doubt, the dog should be crated if you are not in attendance and you've got to be really honest with yourself if you're putting your other animals in danger. There are good home situations for dogs like Murdoch and he'd fit in well. Given his unusual breed you may not have as hard a time as you think finding him a good fit with a responsible family. If you took him to spare him from a possible euthansia and give him a chance........he's not getting a fair shake if you put him in circumstances where he can't control his actions. When push comes to shove, if he does maim or kill another of your pets it won't be his fault........do you see what I mean? You put him in that situation as well as all your other pets and safety is just as important as food, shelter and love. |
Yes I am privileged enough to have the means to fence 2 acres of field and some workers are already building the fence so it will be up when I get there. I also registered to have him start agility classes and this will start in October. My cats will have their own outside enclosure too. Like I was saying I'm retired and am always at home with them. My pets don't sleep outside. I was talking to a friend tonight who told me her dog bit one of her cats 3 years ago (she never told me) and it never happened again. I want to give the dog and myself a chance, it's too easy to just give the dog away to a hunter who might not be satisfied with him and the dog will end up tied up to a tree for the rest of his life. Anicee |
That's why I asked if you'd witnessed other acts of aggression. What happened may not have even involved sushi or murdoch. Being retired and at home doesn't always translate to being 'there' though does it because you didn't witness either incident happen. It can happen right under your nose as well. It only takes a few shakes of a powerful dog to break a cat's neck. It's over before you can even intercede. The nervousness and excitement of the move might be upsetting him. It's hard to tell but I don't see how fencing and enclosures are going to ensure anything other than giving them all exercise and I don't know if that is the issue or not. I've done musical animals before and it's exhausting keeping certain ones apart. It's your call if you don't mind doing that. I really feel for you because I know you're trying to do the right thing. You know that you don't have to necessarily find a home for him for hunting purposes, just because he's a hunting dog. I don't use my hunting dog to hunt. Neither do my kids use theirs for hunting. They're pets. I don't think you want opinions either, just want to get it out of your system, maybe. The outcome is all going to hinge on your making the right choices, and I certainly hope you are and all works out well. I would be very concerned however if a cat received enough of a wound to be seen by a vet. If it was dog bite, it wasn't a warning nip. |

OK, I was just going to read this and not comment, but I have to. I have a mini schnauzer that just one time snapped at my cat because he thought the cat was going to take a bone he was chewing on. I gave him a serious hollering at and he completely understood that he was in the wrong. He has not bothered that cat again - even though the cat will sometimes annoy him. He knows better now. I think your new place sounds ideal and you should give it a try. You are probably anxious about this move, with good reason, and maybe the animals are picking that up. It will all be over soon. Don't make any permanent decisions until you have moved and you can assess the situation. Because you are retired, they all have your full attention, even when you are busy. Give it a little time. I hope Sushi is ok. They will both have learned from this. |
Your best bet is to teach the dog basic training ASAP, and know once you get to the farm house you will need to leash walk your dog every day at least an hour a day. In the mean time keep them seperated and if you can not do that easily while in the house - Leash your dog to you. That will help in a number of ways. |
Murraysmom and Mazer, thank you so much for your replies. I was almost afraid to look at the posts and regretted posting in the first place. People thinking I was ignorant or without a heart. Sushi is doing o.k. but she did require stitches and some antibiotics. I explained to the vet I always had cats and dogs and it's the first time this happens to me and he told me: "see it as an accident, you have many pets, these things happen but keep an eye on them and he also told me to try to live in the present like them, not to anticipate anything bad, that it was a stressful period for all of us, that move etc... My cats are all old..Sushi is the youngest at 6 but after that they range from 10 to 17. I realize 11 cats are a lot of cats and as they die, I will not be rescuing more or fostering more. Very hard to find good homes for older cats. Thanks again...I shall be vigilent, more ascertive with Murdoch and of course he will get plenty of exercise and discipline. Anicee |

Atta girl!! I'm sure things will work out for you. Your heart is in the right place!! Hopefully Murdoch has learned that this is a very bad thing and won't do it again. |

I understand you rescue your animals and want to love and help them so they have a home, but please trust me having 2 or 5 acres of land isn't going to solve any animals behavioral issues. I rescue and pet sit animals myself. October 3,2010 I rescued a chihuahua which thank god he has survived and living a happy life as my service dog now. May 2011 I rescued a 8 month old chow which the dog owner said he was pet and human friendly so my husband and I said ok. At the time of rescuing him we had 3 chihuahuas, 2 adult dogs and a puppy not including the chow. First few days the chow was great with the other animals. Fourth day came a bunch of older kids walked by our fence and was teasing our animals. I decided to let out my chow/boxer puppy so he could bark them away from the fence. My chihuahua ran out with him barking and running towards them instead the 8 month old chow grabbed him, threw him to the ground, and just kept attacking him and the noise from the kids kept getting louder and they were laughing and saying the most cruel comments. My husband ran outside had to kick the dog off so my chihuahua could get loose. When he did get loose the dog kept going at him so my husband kept trying to keep him away until we got inside. My chihuahua and I sat on the floor he laid in my lap my mother in law came over. Carefully she took care of his wounds and made sure he was wrapped up warm in my lap since he doesn't go to anyone else. Called the shelter spoke with them we had to immediately put down the chow because he kept attacking everyone after he attacked him. Got him in the van took him to the shelter and he tried to bite them as well. They do use the gas chamber and Euthanizing shot, but since he kept biting we got him in the chamber. When opening the door it didn't work on him until the 3rd try. If my husband hadn't got him off my chihuahua in time he would've killed him his tooth was very close to the rib. Having a huge yard is great and fun, but unless if you plan to train and socialize every animal with the ones you have you will end up with a problem just like I did. My chihuahua has survived, but since being attacked he's not the same dog and he only allows and feels safe around my Anatolian shepherd that we have which protects him from everything. We do have two cats they will play with him, but I'm very cautious about what happens outside and inside. If you believe your dog bit your cat you need to work with him one on one and I'm sorry, but at this time I'm moving as well and having furniture packed and boxes around doesn't make a dog attack another animal. I recently, just pet sit 4 dogs that weren't my own and two were aggressive towards mine, but it had nothing to do with me moving. I'm sure even with moving you could take the dog on a short walk twice a day, play with him inside for a bit, give him attention. If your going to rescue then you have to do it right not just build up a yard or house with a bunch of pets. It's unfair to them and truthfully I would consider you neglecting them. I am a cancer patient I at least take my dogs on one walk a day no matter if it's short long or even in the yard. My cats I spend at least a few minutes during the day several times petting them, hugging them, even talking to them so they know their important and loved. If you had a child would it only be sitting in front of a tv all day? Animals are just like our children maybe with four legs, but they deserve the same treatment love, patience, good health, and support always. |

Your right finding homes for older pets is the hardest thing ever and not knowing what to do is even worse. At this my husband and I are moving in with my mother in law which I have four old pets which all have health issues from being neglected and abused. My older dog were not able to find her a home and all rescues and shelters turned her down because she's injured and old. My Sadie is 10 years old almost, but the energy she has is like a 2 year old puppy. My vet has agreed to euthanize her peacefully and bury her on her farm land. I couldn't do cremation I feel putting my pet in a stove makes it as if I'm putting her threw hell when she hasn't done anything wrong. I tried so hard to find a home that would allow me to keep her, but it's hard with a low income since my husbands losing his job, and no vehicle. I rescued Sadie from a family who rescued her from a shelter at 4 months old, during the time of having her they placed her in a fenced yard and kept her there while they had another large dog that lived inside the home and went on trips with them. Once they had a child they felt Sadie wouldn't be safe around the child. Sadie, knew not one command, jumped on people immediately, would try to escape on leash, overweight, hip dysplasia, and arthritis in her legs at 5 years old. Since my husband worked day after day with her she has learned commands, no longer jumps on people, walks on leash like a perfect dog, protects little animals in the home, and takes medication like a big baby so she's not in pain. What she loves most of all is she lives in the home, sleeps wherever she wants, and goes on all trips with us. I was expecting to live with her until she decided to go not having to put her down because I can't find her a home that will love her. So I know your pain and after this I'm done rescuing as well because I can't handle the pain of putting down a pet that is loving and deserves a family. |

The Magician Curry Wash Horse Grooming Products
Permirus Pets LLC has introduced The Magician Curry Wash, a tool for bathing dogs, horses, and other animals in less time than conventional bathing. The Magician Curry Wash attaches to a standard garden hose. It comes with three different rubber tooth curry heads for different types of coats. There is a reservoir for any type of shampoo. Once attached to the hose, there is a dial in the center that can be turned to suds or rinse. With the dial initially set to suds, there is no need to wet the coat down prior to shampooing, which can save time and water.
Use a circular motion while bathing the animal, immediately loosens dead skin, loose hair and dirt, and shampoo is evenly distributed in the coat and is easily rinsed out.

Cal 20 keel bolt nut replacement.
I changed out my keel bolts on two different cal 20s. Do one at a time. In your case, it sounds like you just need to remove and replace the nut. I would first try penitrating oil and let soak for a couple of days, then try a socket and see if it the nut will come off. If not you may consider using a torch on the nut, this will expand the nut and hopefully allow you to uninstall the nut. You can cut the nuts off the bolt, with either a sawzall or an abrasive cut off wheel. In either case, when you do get the nuts off use SS replacements and put some grease on the bolt threads. If you find that you need to change out the bolts, do one at a time. I used a sawzall and wacked the bolts at bottom of the nut. Then used a long drive punch and the impact caused the filler to pop off of the bolt head at the bottom of the keel. I hope this helps.

My spouse and I have two anniversary dates: when we first met 16 years ago and when we married in Toronto almost six years ago. Being married to us is very important both for legal and symbolic reasons. Marriage conveys a level of commitment that, rightly or wrongly, civil unions or domestic partnerships don't. That's why the word is being fought over. It's terribly important!

Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE - Keeping little boys and ghouls safe while trick-or-treating this year can help ensure everyone has a happy Halloween, not a fright fest.
Experts offer a handful of tips that may prove especially helpful for parents who are uneasy about sending little ones out into the night. When outfitting children, keep in mind that costumes should fit properly, allowing free movement and vision. Baggy sleeves and billowing capes can be cute, but they could cause tripping and they are a fire hazard, said Thomas Rutledge, spokesman for the Gwinnett County Fire Department. "It's easy for children and adults to get caught up in the excitement of costumes, candy and trick-or-treating," Rutledge said. "Planning ahead will make Halloween a safe and enjoyable time for all ages." Also consider using makeup instead of masks, which can obstruct a child's field of vision, suggests the National Crime Prevention Council. Experts also recommend carrying a flashlight or glow stick and using reflective tape on costumes. Adults should feed kids before sending them out to forage for candy, thus cutting down on late-night snacking. Decide who will accompany the children and pick a route on well-lighted streets away from busy intersections, said Todd Post, spokesman for the National Crime Prevention Council. After hitting the streets, warn children to walk - not run - from house to house and avoid busy intersections. Also, stay on the porch or in the doorway of homes while accepting candy. Children should never enter a residence without permission from a chaperone, Post said. When all the festivities are done, let the children enjoy a treat trade, swapping candy with their friends to get their favorites. Check out the goodies for any sign of tampering, paying special attention to homemade ones if you don't know the source. Local fire officials offer some additional tips to avoid fire hazards: don't overload electrical outlets with holiday lighting or special effects, use flashlights in jack-o-lanterns instead of candles and keep paper and dry fall decorations away from open flames or other heat sources.More like this story

Zac Posen's Fall 2010 Answer to His Growing Pains: Out with the Gowns, In with the Minidresses
Zac Posen's Fall 2010 Answer to His Growing Pains: Out with the Gowns, In with the Minidresses
>> After the New York Times article two weeks ago extensively covering Zac Posen's recent financial struggles, needless to say, eyes were peeled this morning bright and early at the Altman building for Posen's Fall 2010 plan of attack. Glenda Bailey, which the aforementioned article noted was not in attendance at Posen's show last season after they had a confrontation last April, was front row this time around, as were Posen's advertising photog Ellen von Unwerth, Patricia Field, Anna Wintour, Grace Coddington, Joe Zee, and Robbie Myers.
As the lights dimmed and runway photographers scrambled for their places, Israeli "hip-hop violinist" Miri Ben-Ari stepped from backstage to the left side of the runway, where she played her electric violin throughout the show, backed by a thumping bass. Despite the fact that Posen is still going with a pared-down runway in general, the performance added the energy of his elaborate productions of yore. The models, too — including Alek Wek, Hana Soukupova, Anne Vyalitsyna, Posen's muse Anna Cleveland, and Coco Rocha, who closed — were clearly told to smile and work the runway; Sessilee Lopez, hands on her waist, swung her hips with satisfaction. Posen's boyfriend, Christopher Niquet, styled the show.
The clothes, however, were telltale that Posen is making an effort to resituate himself: there were none of his signature gowns whatsoever. In their place, short skirts with flounce, '40-style trousers, and plenty of fur. "I'm playing with clean fabrications and upping the luxury level," he said backstage after taking his bow with Rocha and Kinee Diouf.

by James Slater - Currently one of the most talked about fighters in the world, reigning WBC super-middleweight champion Carl Froch has a number of attractive options when it comes to who he should fight either next or in the near future. In taking a huge gamble by going across to Connecticut to defend against former middleweight king Jermain Taylor, "The Cobra" proved he is willing to take a risk so as to fight the best.. Speaking today on The Setanta Sports Boxing Hour, the unbeaten 31-year-old made it clear he wishes to have further fights that are of a risky, or as he put it, a "spicy" nature. Froch has had rival 168 pound champ, Mikkel Kessler of Denmark, in his sights for a while now, even since before he defeated Jean Pascal to win his world belt. And now, if he gets his way, Froch says he will fight the current WBA ruler in his next fight - and he says he would be more that willing to travel to Denmark to take the fight. "I'd fight Mikkel Kessler in my next fight. To add a bit of spice to it I'd travel to Denmark to do it, I really would," Froch said. "I took the risk [against Taylor] and it paid off. I'm in pole position now. T.V broadcasters are queuing up for me and rightly so." It's undeniable that Froch is in a good spot right now, after doing what he did to "Bad Intentions" in that amazing final round last Saturday. And surely when he next fights there will be no repeat of the U.K T.V networks passing up the chance to show his bout live. Froch is that exciting he is must-see entertainment, he really is. And a battle with the superb Dane would be an truly un-missable affair. It is this type of fight that gets Froch "up" and ready to rumble. Indeed, though he would be entitled to have a relatively safe opponent come over to his native Nottingham for his second title defence, Froch says such a fight would not provide him with the necessary motivation. "It would be nice to have a simple fight in Nottingham, to earn a few quid and give the fans something back," Froch said. "But I can't get up for those fights. I like to put myself under pressure - like my friend David Haye. He puts himself on the line but he goes out there and does the business." So, will Kessler take the challenge? Or will Froch wind up going after someone else? The name Bernard Hopkins is beginning to crop up when it comes to who will fight Froch next, and maybe "The Cobra" will clash with "The Executioner." Either way, and for as long as he's fighting, the WBC super-middleweight champ is sure to give us value for money.
