When will this look good?
Hi all,
I am just starting to learn about edible landscape and am hoping to install a potager garden.
I saw this bag of strawberries on Park Seeds, and the idea appeals to me, but the bag is very ugly to my eye. How long would it be before the bag is covered with berries? I don't want to be looking at the bag for long--it will probably be in my front yard, where it is sunniest. Is there any other kind of container like this, that I can grow them off the ground, but is more formal looking--maybe out of wire or aluminum/iron? Thank you so much for any pointers.
There are terracotta strawberry urns you can buy. These have side holes with lips to allow the plants to protrude out the sides. They come in several sizes and maybe a plastic terra cotta version too. The bags at most are a gimmick and I doubt if you will get many berries unless they are a really good producing plant type. Besides that, if they are June bearing types, the most you will see is green leaves and only a short time of berries. If its an everbearing type, you might see a longer season. Either can also send out runners that will just hang there if the bag is suspeded. They will never survive or root, because the runners have no way to root into soil. Rotting can also occur near the bottom of the bag due to the settling of moisture unless there is good drainage. Strawberry plants, to be healthy and good producers need about a foot of space between each plant, and this is something you cannot offer when they are all bunched in a bag.
You may do better with just a few hanging pots with one or two plants in each. They do like to hang over the sides, but if your looking for decent berry production, they will not off that. In any event, add bone meal to the soil mix, so that it will increase blossoms and fruiting.

I don't need No stinking signature.
EAA did have issues with Slides cracking on the 10 mm. I'd be willing to bet that it in part because of their decision to put 14 lb springs in them. I run a 18 lb spring in my .45. From what I've seen, the 10 mm should probably run a 20 or 22 lb spring.
Frame cracking did occur, though it's comparatively rare.
Pretty good info:http://gunwiki.net/Gunwiki/RefWitnessIssues
A loaded 10mm steel framed is a lot of weight to lug around.
I just got a e-mail from guns americas coverage of the shot show. Rock island arms is building a 10mm in a 1911 version. I surfed the net couldnt find any imformation on them so they are not released yet.Might be a affordable option to look into.They are definately not a colt but have a pretty good reputation and are way more affordable.
Yes, the RIA 10mm guns have been out since Thanksgiving. There are a number of reviews on the dedicated 1911 forums. So far they've been pretty mediocre and mixed reviews. Not enough to convince me to take the gamble. I'd recommend looking for one that already has the kinks worked out.
I have the Kimber Eclipse in 10mm (also have a Colt DE). It's a great shooter and I've had no problems with it at all.
You can even find cheap(er) 10mm ammo now while 9mm, .40, and .45 are all out of stock.
"Cheaper" = ~US$200 / 500 rnds PPU 180gr SJHP.

Please enter a valid mileage
By KBB.com Editors
KBB Expert Rating: 6.7
A thorough overhaul last year brought a new look to the somewhat stoic MKS, but whether it will be enough to compete with sleeker designs from Cadillac, Lexus and even Hyundai is yet to be seen. Because it is based on the Taurus platform, there are still plenty of thinly veiled crossover parts from the Ford sedan, and no V8 engine or rear drive platform. However, for those not bothered by such trivialities, the MKS for 2014 has plenty to offer. From its standard continually-adaptive suspension and available all-wheel drive (AWD), to its 365-horsepower EcoBoost V6 engine and myriad of cool electronic interfaces such as climate controls that operate at the swipe of a finger, the MKS is luxury done Lincoln-style.
If you're a modernist who equates luxury with technology, the Lincoln MKS for 2014 should more than pique your interest. It is plush and roomy and quick, but it is also the automotive equivalent of a rolling iPad.
With its full-time adaptive suspension and available AWD, the 2014 Lincoln MKS will no doubt satisfy most drivers, but the hardcore enthusiast will always opt for rear drive, a traditional manual transmission, and a powerful V8 engine.
out of 41Fuel Economy
out of 40Horsepower
Changes to the 2014 Lincoln MKS are minor, the most notable of which is the addition of a standard rear-view camera. An aggressive new pricing strategy lowers the price of a 2014 model by about $2,000 compared to the 2013 car.
Driving Impressions With 304 horsepower pumping from its standard 3.7-liter V6, the 2014 Lincoln MKS turns in a strong performance by any measure. A smooth shifting 6-speed automatic manages both uninterrupted bursts...... of acceleration and fairly respectable fuel economy. But, it's the turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine that really makes the MKS feel like a street brawler looking for a fight. With standard AWD the MKS with EcoBoost can run with the best V6s in the class and even some V8s. It's no Audi RS, but the MKS does feel stronger and more adept than a Lexus ES. The MKS's adaptive suspension vastly improves its cornering and emergency response reflexes without significantly disturbing the car's reputation for delivering a smooth and quiet ride. The steering feels more precise as well and on the stopping side, the new larger brakes are powerful and secure.
Does the thought of parallel parking strike fear in your heart? This optional system can help. With aid from ultrasonic sensors, Active Park Assist measures an available parking space and then does the bulk of the work to park the car.
When outside temperatures are extreme, there's nothing like getting warmed or cooled from the bottom up. The 2014 Lincoln MKS comes standard with heating and cooling supplied by the front seats, while rear passengers get treated to heated seats, also standard equipment.
If simple and straightforward is your style, the complex controls and multiple screens that make up the MKS's instruments might at first seem overwhelming. Most functions can be controlled via steering-wheel control pads with information displayed on two LCD screens next to the analog speedometer (part of the MyLincoln Touch system) or through the large LCD view screen that displays audio, navigation and Bluetooth functions. Standard heated and cooling seats are a nice touch, as is the expensive and ever so soft Bridge of Weir leather seating surfaces.Exterior
The 2014 Lincoln MKS wears the new face of Lincoln, with an expressive exterior dominated by a prominent winged grille with vertical louver-like slats filling most of the car's front-end acreage. Adaptive HID headlights and a deeply contoured hood round the MKS's sleek good looks. As the car's smooth lines flow rearward, its shape is more modest and not as visually striking. Twin tailpipes do help give the big sedan a notion of power. EcoBoost versions receive 19-inch wheels and can further distinguish themselves with an appearance package that includes 20-inch wheels and darkened grille and headlights.
A 2014 Lincoln MKS comes with the SYNC connectivity and communication system, the SecuriCode keyless entry keypad (some folks love it), adaptive HID headlights, 12-way power front seats, leather seating surfaces (with front-seat heating and cooling), automatic high beams and automatic climate control. For a taste of sportiness, push-button start and 19-inch cast aluminum wheels also come standard. On the safety front, blind-spot monitors, rear-view camera and Lincoln's Forward and Reverse Sensing system are also standard.
Among the upgrades you can make to the 2014 Lincoln MKS are: Active Park Assist, AWD, a navigation system, heated rear seats, 20-inch wheels, an HD Radio, remote-start system, power rear sunshade, a heated steering wheel, power-adjustable pedals, multi-contour massaging front seats, adaptive cruise control, Lane Keep Assist and Alert, THX II Certified Audio with 16 speakers and a 10-inch subwoofer, and a dual-panel moonroof.
Power for the 2014 Lincoln MKS comes from a choice between two V6 engines. The base version is a 3.7-liter good for 304 horsepower and 279 lb-ft of torque. Models with the 3.7-liter V6 come in front-wheel drive (FWD) or AWD. The second option, for EcoBoost models, is a 3.5-liter V6 with two turbochargers. This powerplant makes a robust 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque, and puts power to all four wheels. Proving that you can have your cake and eat it, too, the turbocharged EcoBoost engine that's mated to an AWD system has nearly the same fuel-economy ratings as the less powerful 3.7-liter engine that is in a front-drive MKS. Both engines can run on regular unleaded gasoline and are teamed to a SelectShift 6-speed automatic that can be manually shifted.
3.7-liter V6
304 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm
279 lb-ft of torque @ 4,050 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 19/28 mpg (FWD), 18/26 mpg (AWD)
3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 (EcoBoost)
365 horsepower @ 5,500 rpm
350 lb-ft of torque @ 1,500-5,000 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 17/25 mpg
A base 2014 Lincoln MKS with the standard V6 engine and FWD has a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of around $41,500, including destination and before incentives. Adding AWD pushes the price to roughly $43,500. A top-of-the-line EcoBoost model with a turbocharged V6 and standard AWD starts just shy of $48,500. At these prices, Lincoln's 2014 MKS sedan costs less than the Cadillac XTS, Acura RLX, BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Audi A6. However, the Chrysler 300C and Kia Cadenza cost significantly less. The Lincoln offers a lot of features for the money, but its 5-year residual value is lower than its German and Japanese competitors.

"I've owned this vehicle for 2 years now and I can honestly say it was a great choice. Having purchased it used, I saved a lot of money and purchased a 100,000 mile extended warranty on it which at this point I think will not pay off in the long run because I haven't had a single issue with the vehicle. I love the acceleration of this vehicle, the ecoboost is definitely a must have when purchasing this model vehicle. The white Nappa leather worried me a little because of teenagers in the household but it's actually very easy to clean with the right products. My wife loves the self parking feature and the active cruise control and collision warning are great also."

"My family has been driving Lincolns since Lincolns existed. Some were awesome, some were not. This is by far the best Lincoln I have ever owned. It does everything right. My only complaints are a minor rattle that is no doubt a loose bolt in the back and that ugly steering column cover that never sits right. These are very minor things. Now, is it going to hold up like my wife's bulletproof Honda? No, I'm sure. But I can't think of one luxury car that will. This car is the way to travel. PS: The subwoofer needs a better cover. You can blow that thing to pieces with some deep bass and then it rattles. I guess Ford never saw that one coming, but they are trying to get a younger audience are they not?"

Leaf releases 56MP Aptus-II 10R digital camera back
By Paul Ridden
April 5, 2010
Leaf has just announced a new professional-level 56 megapixel digital camera back with the world's widest medium format internal rotating sensor, touchscreen display, 16-bit color and 12-stop dynamic range. The Aptus-II 10R is compatible with most of the Hasselblad V series as well as other camera systems from the likes of Mamiya and Fuji via an adapter.
The Aptus-II 10R 56 megapixel camera back from Leaf has a hermetically sealed 56 x 36mm CCD sensor with 12 f–stop dynamic range and a sensitivity range of ISO80 to ISO800. Its Leaf Verto internal sensor rotation dial changes the orientation of the image from portrait to landscape without the need to re-mount the camera or remove the back (previously seen on the company's AFi 10 medium-format digital camera).
Also featured is a 16-bit color depth with 65,536 levels per channel for consistent and accurate color reproduction in files up to 345MB in size. Frames are captured in open RAW format at a rate of one every second to either a CF card or high volume portable FireWire disk. The large 3.5in touchscreen LCD allows users to handle settings and post-shot image manipulation, including the ability to crop on the fly with Leaf SensorFlex technology.
The company says that "Leaf Aptus-II digital backs produce images that have been compared to film-like quality - superior to any capture device available in the industry, regardless of resolution." Unlike the non-rotating Aptus II 10 camera back which slots onto the Phase One 645DF digital SLR body, the Aptus-II R10 is geared towards professional-level cameras such as the Hasselblad V series (except the 200 and 2000 versions), Mamiya RZ67, RZ67 Pro II, RZ Pro IId and RB67 and Fuji's GX680II and GX680III (although for some, users will need an adapter).
More detailed information can be found in the product datasheet. The cost: €24,995 (about US$33,700).Share

Before going to Lawrence Livermore, Steven Chu was a professor at Stanford Univ. where he was working when he received his Nobel Prize.
So it is both fitting that Dr. Chu is back in this area and great news that Tesla is getting funding to produce affordable electric cars.

Recent wreck not a normal one
What usually happens following a fender-bender? Trouble with insurance companies and body shops? Local columnist T.J. Ray tells the story of a recent wreck that went about as well as anyone could hope for – for a change. (January 26, 2012, Page 4)
School attendance incentives change
Years ago, the incentive to go to school was what you'd face if you stayed at home. Now, Editor Don Whitten points out, the incentives include meals, tickets and, yes, cold hard cash. (January 25, 2012, Page 4)
Justice Will Be Served
Local columnist Jimmy Reed sees a comparison between some of today's politicians and Old Testament king Rehoboam, noting that sometimes their actions are rejected and justice is served in the end. (January 24, 2012, Page 4)
I found William Faulkner at 30,000 feet
Sometimes, guest columnist J.W. "Jay" Mitchell, writes, it takes a little longer for you to appreciate those you see every day. That was the case for William Faulkner, who Mitchell saw while growing up in Oxford. Mitchell writes how years later he discovered the genius of the man he had little good to say about decades earlier. (January 23, 2012, Page 4A)
The past remains present in 2012
Anniversaries come and go, and are often forgotten or ignored. In 2012, there are a number of anniversaries to be celebrated locally, statewide, nationwide and around the world, including two big events right here in the L-O-U community. News Editor Jonathan Scott takes a look at those events – the death of William Faulkner and the integration of the University of Mississippi – and how they affected the community and its view from others. (January 19, 2012, Page 4)
Historical 'shames' should be shared, not censored
With Martin Luther King Jr. Day this week, local columnist Deidra Jackson takes a look at her feelings about that history, the iconic Lorraine Motel in Memphis and how some schools are glossing over parts of our past that should not be forgotten or overlooked. (January 19, 2012, Page 4)
The ol' Royal still serves its purpose
Editor Don Whitten writes about a long-time, reliable old friend – the manual Royal typewriter he's been using in his office for, literally, decades. And, yes, it's still in use – despite the special challenges his particular model presents. (January 18, 2012, Page 4)
Neither Should He Eat
An initial assignment in one of local columnist Jimmy Reed's classes eventually led to Reed being a mediator as his students discussed Occupy Wall Street. In the end, Reed added his own thoughts about hard work and production. (January 17, 2012, Page 4)
Pardon controversy has all kinds of angles
A wide range of emotions – surprise, anger, disappointment, concern, et cetera – have surrounded the news that former Gov. Haley Barbour pardoned or otherwise dealt with sentences for more than 200 people in his final days in office. Editor Don Whitten takes a look at some of the issues that have citizens up in arms. (January 16, 2012, Page 4)
Where did all the owner's manuals go?
One thing that's missing, more often than not, in boxes and packages containing new products is an instruction or owner's manual. Editor Don Whitten keeps looking for them and wondering how you're supposed to know all about a gadget, game or whatever without those little booklets. (January 13, 2012, Page 4A)

Coastal Florida has been seeing a pretty big real estate boom, which is no surprise considering the sunny weather and cultural scene — not to mention it being a short flight away from The Bahamas.
After losing his Fifth Avenue penthouse (worth $44 million) during a divorce from his third wife Wendi Deng (after a 14-year marriage), Rupert Murdoch had two things to remedy. First, he needed a place to live.
When we're in the market for a new home, we want to know about the area, not just the building we'll be living in. A lot of luxury residences do a great job with selling their rentals, but they tend to forget about the actual experience of living there.
Last month the penthouse apartment at 250 West Street, which is found in the middle of TriBeCa's landmark historic district, went on the market for $39.5M. With views of the Hudson River (nearly 120 feet of frontage, to be exact), this residence has its own private entrance on Hubert Street — complete with your own personal loading berth and lobby, where you're an elevator exclusive to the penthouse takes you right up to the 7,250-square-foot home.
Tel Aviv may not be the oldest metropolis on the Mediterranean, but in the hundred years since its founding the White City has developed into one of the most vibrant. (Take it from this writer, who spent two years living there.) And as the hub of a burgeoning high-tech industry, not to mention a vital center for the world's diplomatic corps in the Middle East, the city that sprung out of the sand dunes north of the old city of Jaffa has become a must-visit destination for travelers from the world over and the choice location for Israel's emerging upper class.
Lionheart Capital will soon be adding to Miami Beach's residential neighborhoods with the new Ritz-Carlton residences slated to begin selling mid-November when the on-site sales office opens. The property will cover seven acres and will be located on the shores of Surprise Lake. Combining Italian architect and designer Piero Lissoni's modernist ideas with The Ritz's refined elegance, the new property will be one of the select few stand-alone Ritz-Carlton Residences in the world and only one in Miami Beach.
If it's to-die-for views you're after while living in London, Canaletto — the new luxury skyscraper development — could be for you. The 31-story tower on the banks of the Regent's Canal opened its doors to the public last week, with the marketing suite showcasing the latest in five-star waterside living.
Most children have some kind of playhouse, whether it be a pink plastic eyesore or a magnificent three-level tree house (maybe that was just me), and even though we grow older there's still a small part of us that wants to maintain that playful feeling in our own home. The Residences at W Hollywood in Los Angeles must know that feeling well, because they chose interior designer Christopher Grubb to give one of their luxury urban penthouses a "playhouse" liveliness fit for a CEO's inner child. If you're thinking this would be a good place to tuck in for the night, think again because instead of a bed, the master suite has a custom gaming table!... Read More

Hollywood's reputation is all about appearances, with many putting on airs regarding their wealth and status.

This section contains publications about InstaForex Company released in print and online all over the world. Numerous articles dedicated to the activities of InstaForex international broker indicate the interest of mass media and their audience to our company.

Before approaching to its midpoint, the year of 2014 has already demonstrated an intense economic and political activity worldwide. While some countries are still trying to get through the crisis aftermath; the others are struggling to take control of inflation and GDP playing with the interest rates; still others struggle for the world supremacy. All that cannot but affect the exchange rates, which sometimes lag behind the events, but sometimes anticipate them. Most of analysts and experts are of the opinion that 2014 is going to be a bumpy ride for currencies, or, speaking in professional parlance, it will be a year of volatility. The Fed will continue winding down the stimulus measures; the ECB is likely to cut the benchmark interest rate bringing it into negative territory. Meanwhile, the emerging markets are expected to take drastic action to maintain the economic growth. That guarantees pretty lively and rich year to be continued in terms of speculative maneuvers for the forex market.

Getting the full range of services from one provider, supplier, seller, or broker is the most common desire of consumers. In other words, they want to be a part of a certain segment of a market. Of course, the best thing is when a provider offers exclusive, high-quality, and advanced set of services for a fairly reasonable price. Today, a forex trader has to look for the key service —access to the market — at one broker, to watch financial information on a website of some news agency, and to follow forex analyses in various blogs and forums. It is utterly inconvenient to use and manage these resources in one browser, one monitor, and combine all these information in the way it brings a wishful result to a trader helping him to take correct and efficient decisions in trading.
For the recent 10 years, the Forex market has been truly considered the most attractive and rapidly evolving financial market for private investors around the world. The currency market is indeed available to everyone who has a few dollars and access to the Internet. All you need is to open a trading account and deposit $5. Voila! You are an eligible private investor operating on the Forex market. However, before you open an account with a random broker or dealing center, it worth spending some hours or even days to pick the right brokerage firm which will enable you to become not only a Forex investor and speculator, but a profit-making trader. The decision to become a trader is not enough.
In today's world, it is getting more and more difficult to live without information about business and politics. In some cases ignorance of politics can be winked at, but being unaware of major financial laws can weigh on efficiency and result in losses not only for companies and households, but also for individuals. Anyway, almost every employed person keeps some savings at home, in a bank, or invests them in various assets. It can be precious metals, shares, and works of art. However, the most popular saving and investment instrument rolled into one is a currency or a basket of currencies.
It is crucial to find a reliable broker that can provide solutions for investors with different levels of competence. Through supreme customer service and diverse financial instruments, InstaForex delivers on all counts.
When all global financial platforms are easily accessible, you can break new ground in profit-making. From ECN forex to the markets of derivatives and commodities, InstaForex gives free rein to its customers in choosing the most convenient trading instruments and terms. This allows clients to work with classic currency instruments, forex options, shares, indices, and futures CFDs. In addition the company has four types of account tailored to suit each and every trading strategy. This includes cent accounts that can be chosen for small deposits, as the minimum volume equals 0.0001 of a trading lot. To optimise trading and arrange the working process, a trader can set the required leverage individually from 1:1 to 1:1,000.
In the saturated market of retail forex, it is not enough to offer a good service. Brokers need to maintain originality to provide the best service possible. World Finance speaks to Vladimir Syrov, Director for Business Development at Instaforex.
Through the creation of its PAMM system – which allowed traders to manage not just their own funds, but joint capital as well – InstaForex managed to position itself within the forex industry in 2009, back when retail forex was still an emerging market. "We were among pioneers," says Vladimir Syrov, Director for Business Development of Instaforex. "It was a case of whatever innovation we brought, we would increase the customers' base significantly because we were among the first to understand the potential of retail forex, especially in Asia." Instaforex facilitates exactly what its name implies: instant forex trading. The PAMM system permits the transfer of funds under the company's control to entitle an investor to share in a trader account proportionate to their investment.
Efficient online management means that all users are provided with control and report on all operations, shares and returns automatically. But it is all very well and good to be considered innovators when the market is still fresh. Unfortunately, this is not the case anymore. Four years on and a very different landscape presents itself. The market density is close to 100 percent, representing a major paradigm shift in the way in which retail forex operates.
Forex trading is no longer currency rate speculation. The essence of investment in Forex market has become closer to the conventional idea of investment and even moved beyond its borders.
Today anyone having a computer connected to the Internet can either trade on Forex and be responsible for the result or employ experienced and successful traders through the PAMM and ForexCopy systems.
Despite both systems are related to money management and Forex market, the trader's role and the very philosophy of trading differ.
What does Instaforex offer?
Being registered with the PAMM system, an investor transfers money to the account of a chosen trader and, depending on the efficiency of a trader's strategy, receives profit exclusive of the commission. After registering with the ForexCopy system, an investor enjoys the opportunity to open the same trades as a chosen trader does. It means that an investor trades on his own yet following the model of a successful trader.
Forex has already proved itself as a really independent and effective business platform with a serious approach, of course. Nevertheless, the main advantage of the market is perhaps absolute accessibility of Forex. If you have an electronic device and an access to the Internet, you are a potential trader. And further on, you can be called either a lucky or a non-successful trader, which at first sight will depend only on yourself. However, not only on yourself… In addition to a computer, Internet provider and a wish to trade, it is of high significance to find the right gate to the world of private currency investments, meaning to select a reliable and a respected broker.
Forex has not reached the ceiling. It is expanding with regard to key indicators of the market. The number of brokers is enhancing along with the quantity of traders, taking into account not only today's traders, but also potential ones. It still should be noted that not all companies can fully satisfy the needs of the clients and offer them something worthy. Brokers differ.
Though it is important to find a guide to the currency market – a broker of ideal reputation and maximum transparent structure. In fact, InstaForex broker fully conforms with the aforementioned description for a long period of time.
InstaForex equips and educates traders with excellent online instruments for a successful Forex trading.
More and more people around the globe prefer investing in Forex. Nevertheless, only a few of them enter the market with professional skills of investing. Forex is mostly considered as something very simple and easy to understand. In a measure it is so, because to get involved in currency trading one needs an electronic device with the access to the Internet, an uploaded trading platform and a certain deposit. However this is enough to begin the journey only, with no respect to the result achieved. To be sure of the outcome, add learning to your experience. Even those who are totally green on Forex realize it, thus driving up the demand for education related to private investments.
Absolutely all education projects are holding out promises to instantly teach a newbie how to earn on Forex, which actually is possible, though not for every education program. The "intolerable" burden can be shouldered only by the education projects, that are launched on the basis of large brokers and delivered by guru of trading and experienced analysts with reliable reputation; others are obviously availing of the "the magic words" with the mere purpose of marketing.
Find out how you can trade on the market with less time and effort yet take as much profit as experienced traders do. Nowadays information and time cost more than money, so private investors may face a challenge of finding high yield investment solutions that do not take too much time. Though some people associate Forex market with spending a lot of time and effort, modern Forex is ready to offer something completely different. Leading Forex brokers keep pace with not only time and its companion technological process, but also with expectations and needs of traders, regardless of how much effort and money they are ready to spend on it. At present, traders do not have to waste their time in front of the screen waiting for a trend or learning fundamental and technical analyses. Forex market comprises people, a huge number of people, with different levels of knowledge and experience, trading both less and more effectively. At the same time, Forex is a boundless trading floor, a community, or even an organism. If someone is successful on Forex, he can share his knowledge with novices and those who have not succeeded in receiving stable profit yet. Now no one needs to find a Forex guru and try to learn something from him. It is much simpler. Brokers with extended client bases are able to provide their customers with new services of a higher rank.

I purchased the Summer Chocolate mimosa tree from Home Depot early this spring. I planted it in the ground on the south side in full sun. Winter is around the corner, and I know the tree will have to be protected. What can I do to help its survival? Anyone had any experience with this tree?

I couldn't justify going anywhere else. Plus, my results have been nothing short of amazing - beautiful and natural.

geothermal hvac with dsh
I am about to install a Geo system with a desuperheater. I understand that I need to install a buffer tank and supply the regular hot water tank. Am I right in thinking that I Marathon with better insulation qualities is better, or should I save a lot of $$ and get a brand name whatever 85 gallon tank with a decent warranty? Also, if the tank is not powered, will the water still destroy the anode?
Not sure if this question is better handled here or in plumbing....
Paul Johnson
A Buffer tank will provide more available hot water, and the desuper heater will be utilize more than connecting it directly to the water heater.
The amount of money you save heating water installing a Marathon I believe is not worth the expense. The cost to rise the temperature of 80 gallons of water 70 degrees is about 41 cents at 10 cents per kilowatt during the heating cycle. Compared to $1.31 using electric resistive heat. Heating water during the cooling cycle is free.
Last, Water quality 'I believe' effects the anode rod.
Here is a link that might be useful: Modern Geothermal
so, a marathon tank is a waste when I just need a storage tank? As long as the AC runs the DSH keeps the water up to temperature -- right? we will run the AC 10+ month a year (in Mississippi) We need the heat today, could have used the air conditioning last week...
The marathon has a lifetime tank warranty... its plastic/poly... there is no anode and no need for one. So its not a decision of 'payback' time in this case is in many others. Its a case of do you want to lug it out and replace it in 10 or so years. My electric coop will sell me a 85 gallon for 875.00 or a 50 for 713.00. Home depot wants 1003.00 for the 85 marathon and doesn't list regular 80 but a 12 year warranty 50 gallon is 435.00.
Doing a cost evaluation.. if your doing geo you probably plan to stay in the house for more than 10years.
lets compare 50 gallon models
initial install GE 435.00
13 years not counting inflation 435.00 and my bad luck missing the warranty
thats 870.00 not counting labor inflation and possible mess clean up for 13 years.
My water heater is coming up on time to be replaced and I will replace it with a marathon... I don't care so much about the efficiency as I do the 15 steps up from the basement and breaking my back in a fourwheeler accident in 2000.
I will gladly pay the 713.00 bucks.

Counted Cross-stitch artists to show their work Sunday
WESTVILLE – Arlene Olmstead of Danville and Sharon Latoz of Georgetown had to share honors at last year's Vermilion County Conservation District Counted Cross-Stitch Show.
Visitors for the 17th annual show will get to see why, in a display of former best-of-show winners as well as new entries from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday at the air-conditioned Gannett Outdoor Learning Center in Forest Glen Preserve, seven miles east of Westville.
"There really aren't 'winners' because no judging takes place," said Lorna Konsis, one of the show's organizers. "But the people that visit the show vote for their favorites."
Konsis, along with Claire Biggs and the late Van Sheets, started the show in 1992 because they were "stitching buddies," Konsis said.
"They joked that since I knew the boss, wouldn't Forest Glen be a perfect place to host a show for counted cross-stitch?" said Konsis, who is married to Ken Konsis, Vermilion County Conservation District executive director. "It was supposed to be a one-time thing. We called our friends that did cross-stitch and put a notice in the paper. It worked so well, we've kept it going."
Over the years, Konsis has seen a wide variety of items, but thinks her biggest surprise was a queen-size quilt stitched by a man in his 80s.
"I just don't know many men with that kind of patience," Konsis said of the tedious work.
The art ranges from using a printed pattern of "X's" on fabric to kits with patterns and threads to books with patterns where the stitchers buy their own fabric and thread colors.
Konsis got involved with the intricate work by accident.
"I had done stamped patterns, but one day I bought a kit and when I opened it, there was nothing on the fabric," she said with a laugh. "I took it back to the store and said, 'What's this?' That's when I learned where the counted part comes in."
Konsis' habit is to measure the design from top to bottom and side to side and determine where it should fit on the fabric. She then always starts at the top, working her way down.
"Different kits have different directions. That's just what works best for me," she said.
Her biggest challenge has been a nativity scene consisting of several panels.
"It has a special frame available just for it," Konsis said. "I've probably been working on this for 15 years off and on. Ken told me if I could get three panels finished, he'd buy me the frame. He thinks I'm getting close."
Konsis saw the finished product in a shop in Indianapolis and was told it took the stitcher 20 years to complete, so she's right on target, she figured.
This year's show is expecting 25 exhibitors. The number is down from an average of 30 to 35 exhibitors in the past.
"Gas is an issue for some people," Konsis said.
Still, about 100 items are expected to be displayed.
Olmstead's creation "Cinderella" and Latoz's "Roses" will be among other show favorites returning. Konsis has show favorites in a separate display because people actually call and ask to see certain items again.
"They may just appreciate them or want to take a closer look because they are now working on the same kit," she said.
Olmstead likes to vary her projects. Having just finished a Thomas Kinkade painting re-creation, her second, she tackled something much simpler next. "I like to have a time to relax before I start another more complicated and intense project," Olmstead, 77, said.
She has created counted cross-stitch names for all her great-grandchildren using animals to form the boys' names and angels to form the girls' name letters, and usually does a wedding sampler for each of her grandchildren's weddings.
"I give some away like that or for other gifts and I keep some that I worked so hard on, I can't bear to give them away," she said.
Her husband thinks she should sell them. So, just to see what she put into a project, she tracked the creation of a Christmas bow featuring cardinals.
"I had 122 hours in that one project," Olmstead said. "How do I value that?"
Olmstead keeps at the craft because she feels it is good for the mind.
"And when you're finished, you have something to show for it," she said.
Latoz, 64, is currently working on a pattern for the painting "The River" by Claude Monet.
"I like that sort of thing. There are no bare spots," she said. "It'll take me several months to finish."
One of her favorite creations was a yellow school bus with children hanging out the windows.
"I gave it to my daughter to hang in her classroom," she said. "It was just great fun to work on and see it come alive."
Latoz likes the show because it's fun to see what everyone else has been working on.
There is no admission charge to the show. Items on display include painting reproductions in thread, Christmas ornaments, special subjects and quilts.
Call the conservation district office for information at 662-2142.
