need small fireplace
I have a small fireplace measuring 25" wide 24 1/4" high and 16" deep. so far I have only found the Sierra 5300 Cricket to fit..is this a good insert? are their others that would be better?
I'm not familiar with the Sierra, but I think Jotul makes a small insert -- a gas-fired direct vent design -- that might fit. Jotul has an excellent reputation for making high quality products that are manufactured in Norway but assembled in Maine. In my experience, there was just one reservation -- their 800 # is not designed to handle "retail" issues. It's really for the contractors who install their products. So make sure you can trust the expertise and competence of your installer. But you'd want to do that any way. Installing these inserts is complicated and takes about a whole day. You really need to make sure they know what they're doing.
One more thing: when you figure out whether a particular insert will fit, you need first to make sure that it will fit into your existing firebox. That's self-evident. But you also have to make sure that the "clearances" are right -- these are the distances between the hot stuff and the combustible stuff. If your clearances are not right you might have to make some additional modifications to your fireplace surround, hearth and/or mantle. And make sure you do not have a code violation, or else your insurance will not cover you if you have a fire.
Decisions,decisions. This isn't straightforward, and it does cost. But in the end it will be worth it.

People seem to think batman holds himself above the law. He believes in justice and the legal system. His goal is to bring criminals to justice, not exact his version of penalties like the Punisher. He is the best swat team/police detective in the world not juror/lawyer/judge. The traditional vigilante is one who takes justice into their own hands and punishes criminals without regard to the laws chosen by the people. Batman may use extreme measures to prevent the deaths the police couldn't prevent but stops once the criminal is in the hands of the people. Basically, he's a bounty hunter who wants to prevent deaths not collect money.
Also, the jokers kills are on the people of gotham's heads not Batman's. Arkham isn't a prison he owns and runs, it's the city's. Batman knows he doesn't have the right to tell gotham what to do with incapacitated criminals. To use a sentiment from the dark knight movie/long Halloween he BELIEVES in Gotham. He believes the people have a right to decide the fate of the criminals threatening them. If the citizens voted to allow capital punishment for the insane he wouldn't break into the prison and save joker. It would be what Gotham wanted and so justice would be served.

Three-time winter Olympian Tracy Evans was inspired by a volunteer trip she took to Africa. She experienced first hand the positive impact sport had on the impoverished youth with whom she worked. Seeing how little access these children have to sports, she returned to the United States determined to create a year-round community sports education program for kids in developing countries. Recognizing the power of sports from her own experience as an Olympic athlete, Evans wanted to start a nonprofit organization that would challenge gender norms through using sport and interactive discussion.

Has anyone tried the famous little tiller that supposedly turns even the worst garden soil into the "best"? With all the clay and rocks we have, does this little machine work here in Alabama? I'd do anything to have nice flower beds that didn't have to be raised beds.
I haven't tried one but you can't turn clay into loam with any kind of tiller. I have an 8 hp tiller that will turn almost any soil, but the clay still packed down from year to year. Just look at the commercial. That soil they are turning at such a fast rpm rate is as light and fluffy as used coffee grounds.
I love mine!!!! I'm 5'1" and have arthritis. The tiller cranks easily, is light enough for me to carry, and I could use my post hole diggers as a trellis, because I even use the tiller for that [digging holes]. It works on the soil like a blender- yes, it does make it light/fluffy. Got mine from an ebay store. Fine piece of engineering.
I've had the electric version for 18 months. I chose it since I've got a poor track record with performing timely maintenance. My property is wooded but cleared next to the house. Where it is cleared, it is primarily chert and clay. I have been very pleased with the tiller. There are times when it bounces due to the rocks but it also has the flexibility for me to pick it up and place it in the center of an established bed and mix in amendments or dig a hole for a new plant.
I live at the foot of a mountain, near a gap cut through by water. I don't have chirt, I have good soil and river rock. The tiller does bounce off the big rocks [think bronco riding!] [or what I imagine bronc' riding would be like] Mine was a birthday present to me!
The tiller's one step in making better soil from clay, but use it to work in lots of compost and some coarse sand (not fine sandbox sand which will turn it into concrete). Better yet, do a "lasagna" bed: cover the ground with a layer of sand, 10 layers or so of newspaper covered with wood chips, grass clippings, anything organic you have. Let that sit for a season or two and either plant right into it as is or, if it's pretty well decomposed, till it into the soil. Keep adding wood chips or other organic mulch every year and you'll have much better soil.
If your mountain property slopes enough that the organic matter washes away, make terraces with some of those rocks and fill them with good topsoil or lots of compost to work into your clay.
I haven't even looked at the Stihl!
I have done some lasagna gardening and was totally surprised at how well it really works! And it brings earthworms galore - BIG ones that startle me when I dig. I hadn't even thought about trying it for my new llloooonnnggg flower border/bed that I will not plant until next year anyway. Well, Fall at the earliest and then just the basics.
I will check on other brands of tillers. I really need one that I can handle myself - middle-aged, short, slightly over-weight female!
Chert/Chirt is clay that has mostly tiny rock particles in it. It is hard, compacted and impossible to garden. Imagine concrete that has been broken up into a million tiny pieces. You now have a semblance of chert (smile).

Vertical color stripes and black blotches on white screen
I replaced my cracked screen with one from amazon (OEM planet). Prior to replacement the device, other than the cracked screen, was working fine.
After replacement I have a white screen with colored vertical lines and three black blotches at the top of screen. I did a reset a number of times and then a restore in itunes but still got the same screen. Itunes recognizes the device so logic board seems intact.
I rechecked the two connections and the copper shields and they appear to be attached correctly.
Any thoughts? Is my replacement screen defective or do I have a more serious problem?
You always want to test the screen before hand that way you know if it came lIke that or not. Unfourtanatly it's kinda hard to test the 4th gen digitizer, but you can always check the LCD pretty easily. Just make sure the cables are connected and then turn it on before putting it all the way together.
That was meant to be a comment. Oh well.
Yes I would say your screen is broken, but you can always try your old LCD again given that it's still in one piece
Thanks for your comment. I thought about putting my old screen back in but the glass is too shattered to be safe to use. Luckily I did test the screen before I put it back together as you suggested. The vendor responded in record time and will be sending another screen. Guess they considered my description of the problem with the one they sent to be sufficiently damaged to warrant the expense of sending another. Still curious to determine what the vertical colored stripes are the result of.
its probably the LCD is messed up. because when i was messing around with my ipod and i took off the Digitizer and LCD, i pressed it too hard and it popped up with black spots and a white screen
Interesting that pressing too hard will cause the blotches. I did not apply any pressure at all to the digitizer during installation. This would lead me to believe the item was defective prior to my receipt. Any idea what has caused the vertical colored stripes?

Hi! Thank you for looking at my profile. I recently moved to Az from Michigan. I am ultimately looking for a good man who I can spend the rest of my life with! I am a nurse and I absolutely love my job. I am a trauma ICU nurse. Helping people and making a difference in someone's life is so rewarding to me that I cannot express it in words. I am going back to school to further my education and ultimately be a nurse practitioner . Yes, I love school and I am a nerd :) I LOVE volunteering in the community. I have so much to be grateful for and being able to help those who are in need makes me feel really good.

I hope to find someone who shares in my love for traveling and an added bonus if you like warm tropical places. I am the kind of girl who can get all dressed up and go out for a fancy night on the town and the next night pack up and rough it for a weekend camping trip. I am not looking for a casual relationship or a fling. I want someone who is educated, stable, has a good career and is grounded and basically has a good head on their shoulders! Someone who is positive, has a caring heart, and sees the beauty in life. It is important to be with someone who is honest and faithful and has a caring heart. You musy love kids!

2009 PTR Member of the Year: Ken DeHart
There are some people in this industry you just can't avoid. Ken DeHart is just such a person. He's involved in so many aspects of tennis — as a director of tennis, teaching pro, coach, teacher of tennis teachers, presenter, author and so much more.
"Ken's spent nearly 40 years educating tennis teachers and coaches around the world," says PTR CEO Dan Santorum. "He has a true passion for teaching tennis. But he not only shares his knowledge with others, he also takes the time to learn more and more about how to teach the sport. He sets a tremendous example for others." And for the example that he sets, DeHart is RSI's 2009 PTR Member of the Year.
DeHart has been the director of tennis at the San Jose Swim & Racquet Club in California for eight years. "We teach a lot of lessons, and a lot of my lessons are for non-members," he says. "If I can convert one out of every five or six to memberships, I add a lot of value to our club. So much of my time in tennis has been on how do you market or create added value."
For more than 20 years, DeHart has presented at the annual PTR Symposium and always received top marks, says Santorum. He's a great clinician, hosted and helped produce three of the PTR's most widely distributed DVDs, is committed to community and charity events, and is one of only a handful of pros who are Master Professionals in both the PTR and USPTA.
Continuing education has always been huge for DeHart, who has a master's degree in education. "I attend as many continuing ed opportunities as I can," he says. "And since I get to speak a lot, it forces me to have new things to talk about all the time."
Tips for success
- Drop-in clinics let non-members test-drive the club and your instruction, and let members see new faces.
- Get involved in professional development — never stop learning and sharing what you've learned.
- If you pay enough attention to continuing education, writing articles, running events, etc., you'll never get burned out.

Full disclosure - I have the old version of these poles, without the secondary grip and releasable straps. Love them though, and the new updates look even better. A little long when collapsed on an alpine pack, but still prefer a two piece for weight savings and fewer moving parts. Easy, smooth adjustability and the fliplock is super solid. Dig them.

Dr. Enuf's origins date back to 1949, when a Chicago businessman named William Mark Swartz was urged by coworkers to formulate a soft drink fortified with vitamins as an alternative to sugar sodas full of empty calories. He developed an "energy booster" drink containing B vitamins, caffeine and cane sugar. After placing a notice in a trade magazine seeking a bottler, he formed a partnership with Charles Gordon of Tri-Cities Beverage to produce and distribute the soda.

Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort And Spa

Huge and Wonderful
I generally don't like staying in large hotels, preferring more atmospheric hotels. That being said, I loved my stay at the Grand Hyatt in Poipu, Kauai. Its a very large hotel (600+ rooms), yet it maintains a charm that exudes a luxury tropical feel. Upon walking into the huge open air atrium and reception, you realize you're in a wonderful property. At sunset, the deck bar is the perfect place to enjoy a drink and end your day as ukulele's strum. After dinner, Stevenson's Library has live jazz and is one of my favorite bars I've been to. I don't really are for scotch, but Stevenson's Library, with live jazz playing made me crave it. Ha. The pool area of the hotel is part pool/part lagoon and is superb for families and kids of all ages (a lazy river, water slides, etc). In addition to the pool and lagoon area, the hotel is situated on a great beach that has good surf and body surfing. The hotel also has a high end spa and there's a championship golf course associated with the hotel. Near the hotel, there is some very cool hiking trails where you can walk along the cliffs and is well worth taking a walk.
The towns of Koloa and Poipu have some good options for dining that are nearby (Roy's, the Beach House, etc.) and the little main street of Koloa is very charming and only a few minutes away by car.
Overall, I love this hotel.
Luxury Resort Vacation
The Grand Hyatt is one of the mega resorts near Poip'u Beach. It's huge and beautiful and a great place for families. The pool is the largest in the area and includes a waterslide, lazy river and a saltwater pond. There are several dining and drinking options on the property including a traditional luau. The rooms are beautiful and clean. There is a small beach on the property (although like all beaches in the Hawaiian Islands it is open to the public) and Shipwreck Beach is adjacent. There are plenty of amenities and attractions at the Grand Hyatt so you don't ever have to leave the property if that's your thing. If you are looking for the typical resort vacation, this is definitely your place. The Grand Hyatt has it all. If you are not staying here it's worth checking out the facilities but be advised they patrol the pool area and will kick you out immediately if you are not a hotel guest and a day pass to the pool carries an absurdly hefty price tag of $250 US a day. (Yes you heard me correctly! That's highway robbery!) And that's just a reflection of the prices you'll shell out to stay here.
Unique Quality: Multiple restaurants and bars, an amazing pool area, beautifully manicured grounds, shopping, full staffed business center, spa, golf course with clubhouse, babysitting, beach.

Reagan at Reykjavik
Forty-eight Hours That Ended the Cold War
"A dramatic account of the historic 1986 Reagan-Gorbachev summit in Iceland--the turning point in the Cold War--by President Reagan's arms control director, a key player in that world-changing event. In October 1986, Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev met for a forty-eight-hour summit in Reykjavik, Iceland. Planned as a short gathering to outline future talks, the meeting quickly turned to major international issues, including SDI ("Star Wars") and the possibility of eliminating all nuclear weapons. Both men were at the height of their powers, and they had a rare opportunity to move toward peace. The meeting laid the groundwork for the most sweeping arms accord in history, adopted the following year, and the end of the Soviet Union half a decade later. From his position as a participant and his skill as a historian, Adelman is able to reveal the motivations, relationships, and conversations that led to the breakthroughs. Scrupulously researched and based on now-declassified documents, Reagan at Reykjavik tells the gripping tale of that weekend, and provides an honest and up-close portrait of Reagan at one of his finest and most challenging moments"--From publisher description.

4.14.14: The Age Of Radiance, The Girls Of Atomic City, Russian National Fitness & Poetry Out Loud
By Word of Mouth
Happy Monday, everyone! Halfway through April and the nice weather is finally here. There's a little bit of every subject on today's Word of Mouth. We start with science, move to a look into women's history, and even have lesson in physical fitness before concluding with poetry. Put on your headphones and listen today's show, then join the discussion on our Facebook page!
Listen to the full show and click Read more for individual segments
Age of Radiance
- At the beginning of the atomic age, Albert Einstein and Marie Curie became heroes to millions around the world. Their discoveries heralded a new era of possibility for humankind. Instead, writes Craig Nelson, that sweet hope has been battered by a history of thermonuclear-winter terrors and run-amok power plants. Nelson narrates that sweeping arc in vivid detail in The Age of Radiance: The Epic Rise and Dramataic Fall of the Atomic Era.
The Girls of Atomic City
- The story of the development and deployment of the atomic bomb is generally told as a narrative driven by powerful men like Oppenheimer, Truman, and Stimson, operating at the highest levels of government. What few people know is how many women played a crucial role – albeit unknowingly – in one of the most significant turning points in history. Denise Kiernan interviewed several women who worked in Oak Ridge, Tennessee – a secret, government-built town created as part of the Manhattan Project. Their stories, combined with detailed reporting, come together in her new book called The Girls of Atomic City
Russian National Fitness
- Last month, Putin signed an executive order to revive the Stalin-era fitness program called 'ready for labor and defense'. Since details of what the fitness program would look like have been hard to come by… there are rumors action star Steven Seagal is somehow involved. We decided to take a look at what Russia's fitness program looked like in the 1930's. Our guest is Robert Edelman, he's a professor of Russian history and the history of sport at the University of California, San Diego.
- One of the great joys for me as host of Word of Mouth is getting out of the studio to moderate and emcee community events. One of my absolute favorites is the annual Poetry Out Loud state finals in Concord, where high school students from around the state bring their favorite poems to life in front of a live audience. Because April is National Poetry Month, we decided to bring a taste of the event directly to you. We invited some of the participants into the studio to recite poems.

Time waits for no one
It's one of those emails that is passed along. But I loved it and wanted to share it.

Who doesn't have one.

Ask a newly
Divorced couple.
To realize

Ask a graduate.

Who has missed the train, bus or plane.
To realize

Ask a person
Who has survived an accident.
Time waits for no one.
Treasure every moment you have.
Sometimes you have to wait, like when you come home from a day of routine doctors appointments for husband and myself out of town and find that the street to your house is dug up on account of the umpteenth water problem. Husband can't make it on foot through front yards up the hill and you don't have water anyhow. So you spent the next 38 hours at a motel down the road.
Yes, I am back. I had no problem scrambling back to get husband's laptop, pjs, something to read, meds and other necessities and feed the cat. Look at the bright side: no need to cook and wash dishes, eight fast food joints within 1/4 mile and the same distance to walk home in the other direction to check on the progress.
They replaced water and sewer pipes and we hope that now the 30year problems is solved. Since years they dug up and poked around at least twice a year somewhere along our short dead-end sidestreet.
anneliese, glad to see that you are back in your house, and comfy. Home is best. But it seems to me that you spent the 38 hours the best possible way. You did not let the "water company" take over your priorities. You took care of your business during the ordeal.
And I like your: " Look at the bright side: no need to cook and wash dishes,".
I like that.
The subject of the post is:"Time waits for no one". The 38 hours would have gone by no matter what you did, but you chose to put the time to work. You did a super job.
