Speed Queen? Whirlpool? which TLwasher to buy?
I saw the Speed Queen washer in a shop and I like it. It seems sturdy from what I can tell, and has features I want. The dealer highly recommends it. He also carries Whirpool and said it's "probably good enough". It doesn't seem as well made and I don't care for the agitator that much.
My trusty repairman said that Speed Queen was beset with problems and expensive and difficult to repair. He's ADAMENT I get Whirlpool. He said all washers today are junk- but Whirlpool is the best of them. He said the clip attached to the drive will break in 3 years, but is easy to replace.
I called a parts store for advice, they said the same and were surprised Speed Queen still exists. They said Whirlpool is fine if I don't overload it.
I hate knowing in advance something's going to break, but I don't know that the Speed Queen wouldn't either.
I don't want to insult my repair guy who has always been
great, I don't know if the issue is worth divorcing him over and I really don't have enough data about the Speed Queen. I learned the pre-2004 models were a problem but now they're being made in their original factory again.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
The Speed Queen resedential washers being sold today are not the units they used to sell in the 80s-90s. From what I have gathered which may be wrong Speed Queen units were rebadged Amanas for the home. Speed Queen is under a different company and went back to an older more proven design that is very close to what they sell commercially.
Everything I heard about the Speed Queens being sold today from dealers, repair people and even the delivery guys are that they are very reliable.
A few questions -
1) Have you gone to speed queen website for service centers nearby you?
2) Does the dealer selling speed queen service them?
3) They do have a 3 years parts/labor, so you shouldn't need to pay a service guy until the end of year 3.
I understand wanting to keep someone you trust in the loop but if he hasn't been brought up to speed on SQ design then he probably would not be a good bet to attempt servicing those products. Whirlpool and new Maytags are pretty standard builds that should have good parts availibity.
You will enjoy the SQ MUCH more. It has the spin drain instead of neutral drain like Wpool which for me means cleaner clothes. It also has a suspension system that keeps the load from banging and walking if off balance/Wpool doesnt, they just knock/bang and walk till you stop it.
I think the Wpool would be a good machine just not as much so as the SQ. The SQ is a heavier washer and also spins faster than the Wpool.
My sister has a SQ and has had no problems at all. They are just simple sturdy machines.
If they were so bad, how could the company give the warranty they do??? Whirlpool is 1 year on everythign as far as I know. SQ is 3 years on everything, then 10 years on the transmission, 5 years on rust, lifetime on the tubs. Also SQ uses a metal outer tub and a stainless steel inner tub where Wpool uses a plastic outer and a porcelain inner.
Dont think you will regret the SQ. Ask your dealer if you try the SQ and dont like it if he will exchange it for a Wpool. Dont worry about the repairman, he might be retired by the time the SQ quits!!
Thanks everyone, for all your helpful advice.
I called Speed Queen (Alliance-Ripon, WI). They couldn't have been nicer. Explained their history, tech. specifications, everything. EXCEPT.. they said they didn't have reliability data. I find that surprising.
However, when I asked about repairability and whether a talented homeowner could make repairs, if necessary, the answer was yes.
Not only is it servicable completely from the front- they do sell a repair manual and a DVD that shows how.
I'm going to take another look at SQ at the dealer.
It's true, although my dependable repair guy seems pretty robust now, I suppose he could retire in the future, or leave me for a better customer. But he's really been great.
Perhaps Speed Queen can fill in where Maytag left off.
For decades, buying Maytag meant paying more but getting something of high quality.
Around 1997 the bonehead management at Maytag discovered that selling junk with the Maytag name on it resulted in huge profits. And the company with a proud 100 year history was destroyed in just 10 years.
curiousshopper, it sounds like there may have been a change of ownership and/or management around that time. I've seen changes at Wal*Mart since Sam Walton died.
All I can say about Maytag now is that I love my HE TL Bravos washer and dryer. Whirlpool bought Maytag in 2006.
Speed Queen's current machines are simple, built like a tank, and easy to repair.
My parents own a cattle ranch in Montana. I went to visit, and Mom was glad I was there because her 6-month old Speed Queen (that I sold her) was"making a horrible noise" and wouldn't drain. Since she's about 50 miles from the nearest servicer, I popped the front panel off, and noticed that the belt was slipping on the pump, which appeared to be frozen.
I took the pump apart (a very simple process), and took out the nail that was stuck inside. Reassembly took about 5 minutes, and it's been flawless since. I know that everyone can't do this, but I was very impressed with the simplicity and heavy duty build of the machines.
It cleans well and is simple to operate. Of course it uses more water than HE models, but reviews say that HE doesn't always clean as well as full agitator models.
Had new SQ dryer installed last week. It works well on timed cyle. Test load took under 30 mins. Test load on automatic took over 75 minutes, at which time I stopped it.
Now my old reliable washer is acting up from the re-installation. The new serviceman came back and fixed a leak but replaced the tub off kilter. We had to shut the gas today because we think there's a leak from the new dryer. So I'll need to call service again.
I was researching cost of new washer parts and found that SQ parts ARE more expensive. SQ pumps are listed as plastic(!) and are one of the items SQ rep. said may require replacement from time to time (as well as belts). New pumps are over $200 without labor.
I miss my old repair guy- but I was unfaithful, and no longer worthy of his attention.
Hope the new guy is worth it!
Hi Suz,
I got a speedqueen washer last week (model 76) & like it very much. I think you will be happy with it.
After it came, it was making a little squeek with the agitator & I called SQ. They said there was a notice out about needing more grease on the agitator with my serial number (my luck). I called one of the service companies listed & the next day a very nice fellow came out & took off the agitator, added a little more grease & no more squeek.
I don't think it's any different repairing this machine than any other. I don't know about the prices after the warranty ends. I have a service company that I use with a contract on all my older appliances & I'm sure they can repair speed queens too.
I found out about SQ washers from this web site. After reading about all the new machines and the problems with them, I think I made the best choice for me from the regular top loaders out there.
Since I was getting a top loader I knew I didn't want any electronics. I like being able to stop it & add extra time,etc.
I do have a Miele dishwasher with all electronics that I love, but I got it because it did have lots of rinses on it. (Anyway it did 3 years ago, who knows how they're made today.)
I am having a problem with my SQ washer recently purchased(4-28-11) 4 times since i have used thewasher when I go back downstairs to get the clothes out of the dryer I notice that the washer time is making a humming noise and i have to pull? the timer out to stop the cycle. I realize once or twice could be human error,but 4 times there is a problem ..any susggetions on where I should go with this

It is no secret that Matt Ryan got beat up this season but you wouldn't know it talking to him. The Falcons QB has been the consummate professional he always has been not leaving teammates out to dry all while picking himself off of the ground. Only Joe Flacco and Ryan Tannehill have been sacked more than Ryan. Roddy White on the other hand is letting his opinion be heard.
"Next year, that's got to be something that we improve: We've got to keep our quarterback clean because he's not going to make it," White said. "You keep taking hits and hits and you're not going to make it. We're going to have to find ways to get him protected, keep him upright so he can do what he do and that's make throws and win football games."-ESPN.com
The Falcons will be picking 6th overall this year and could use an OT like Texas A&M's Jake Matthews. It will be very important for Atlanta to protect their franchise QB.

ASIA/VIETNAM - Authorities confirm the thesis of "suicide" for the Christian leader who died in prison
Dak Nong (Agenzia Fides) - "Suicide by electric shock": the Vietnamese police authorities, after conducting an investigation, have confirmed such version concerning the 38 year-old Hoang Van Ngai, Christian leader of the Vietnamese Evangelical Church, who died on March 17 while he was in police custody in the district of Dak Glong, in South Vietnam. The case caused turmoil in the Vietnamese community of Hmong for months (see Fides 11/04/2013). Hoang Van Ngai's family does not believe the suicide version and believes that the man died as a result of beatings by prison officers.
According to Hoang Van Pa, the victim's elder brother, Hoang Van Ngai had many enemies among government officials, because he had protested against the abuses of power, he refused to pay bribes and had strenuously defended his church, when the authorities had ordered him to close it.
Ngai was arrested on March 15 with his older brother, Hoang Van Pa, his wife and sister in law, without any arrest warrant. His brother heard noises and screams from the cell next to his and then saw his brother being led away by the guards "completely inert, as if he were dead, with purple marks on his throat." The photographs of Ngai's body show severe bruises that were not there before detention. After the protests, the authorities ordered an investigation which today confirmed the first version provided by the prison police, who spoke of "electric shock" caused by the victim.
In a note sent to Fides, the NGO "Christian Solidarity Worldwide" (CSW), said: "The man seems to have been targeted for his Christian faith and his determination to resist corrupt officials", stating that the case reveals the violation of the "International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights", including provisions against arbitrary deprivation of life (art. 6), arbitrary detention (Article 10), and the use of torture or cruel treatment or punishment, inhuman and degrading treatment (Article 7). CSW, along with other human rights organizations, call for "a new investigation accompanied by witnesses from other prisoners and photographic proof" to clarify the circumstances of the arrest, detention and death.

The essence of photography is being ready for any situation, and no compact digital camera achieves that better than the Panasonic Lumix FZ200. A constant aperture lens with an unprecedented zoom level, high sensitivity sensor and an extra-speedy operation help the Panasonic FZ200 rise to the occasion, regardless of your subject or environment.
Many cameras today boast superzoom lenses, but none as impressive as the Panasonic Lumix FZ200. With a range of 25-600mm, you can capture a wide scenic vista in one shot, and just as easily zoom in to capture the details in a far away bird. The FZ200 lens has a 14-element construction that includes aspherical and Extra Low Dispersion Lenses, which improve image quality by cutting down on optical aberrations. But most impressive about the Lumix FZ200's lens is its constant F2.8 aperture. Unlike any other lens in a compact digital camera, the fast lens of the FZ200 can be used at F2.8 up to 600mm, giving you extra light-gathering ability and the fastest shutter speeds possible even at long zoom lengths. With such an advanced, versatile lens, the Panasonic FZ200 is the perfect camera for everything from vacations to the sidelines of a youth soccer game.
Behind the lens of the Panasonic Lumix FZ200 is a 12.1 Megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor, powered by the Panasonic Venus Engine. This combo lets the FZ200 take vivid images in all lighting conditions, thanks to an ISO range of 100-6400 and an Intelligent Noise Reduction system. For scenes with contrasty lighting, the Lumix FZ200 can employ Intelligent HDR (High Dynamic Range), which takes multiple exposures and combines them for a perfectly exposed photo. The advanced Venus Engine gives the FZ200 pro-level operational speed as well. Flip the power switch and the FZ200 is ready to shoot in under a second. Carefully compose your images and snap them one at a time, or capture fast-moving action at 12 frames per second, in full resolution. For truly high-speed shooting, a special mode lets you take 60 photos per second at 3.5 megapixel resolution.
For all its advanced features, the Lumix FZ200 is also designed for total ease of use. If you prefer the feel of a traditional camera, compose your photos through the 1,312k-dot electronic viewfinder. Or find a creative angle for your photo with the 3-inch free-angle LCD screen, which tilts and rotates through a wide range of motion. A zoom lever is positioned for easy operation with your left hand, while you trigger the shutter with your right. And a wealth of creative modes ensures that even if you don't know the science of photography, your photos will still turn out great. With a Panasonic Lumix FZ200 digital camera at your side, you'll record all your life's moments in unprecedented clarity.

The FZ200 is an excellent advanced point & shoot - or "bridge" - camera, albeit one that may (UNfortunately) find a somewhat limited audience. Cons are a fairly high price tag, awkward menu system, and a reasonably steep leaning curve (required to take best advantage of the many features) that is not all all helped by the lack of a Printed Manaul. An entry level DSLR, with a kit lens (or even 2!), can now be had for about the same purchase price as the FZ200, and, of course, there are a number of other less expensive SuperZooms, featuring longer zoom ratios, higher MegaPixels, or both. And it can be a hard sell to convince the Casual Buyer that LESS Zoom Range, and a LOWER MP Count can still result in BETTER Photo quality. BUT: none of the above combine the feature set of the FZ200, with a (relatively) Fast F2.8 lens (across the entire zoom range!), a physical size & form factor that manages to be both significantly smaller than the typical DSLR, while still being Large Enough for a steady grip & comfortable handling. Also, Panasonic's "iA" setting does a remarkably good job for those times when one doesn't want to "think too much." This is our 4th digital camera, and second Advanced P&S: as much as we loved the earlier Advanced model, the FZ200 runs circles around it in every performance characteristic that comes to mind. (Ignoring User Manual, Menu system, and the odd times when a Slightly Smaller physical body has some advantage.) If you fit the target market [that is, if you do not want or cannot afford a decent DSLR, but are still looking for a quality piece of gear, capable of VG - Excellent photo, AND are willing to ignore the Numbers Hype...] the FZ200 comes highly recommended, both from personal experience, as well as from every "professional" Review seen to date.

The FZ200 is a nice all around camera. I carried it around all the time when I didn't feel like carrying my heavy Canon DSLR and it's very heavy L lenses, until I purchased the awesome LF1. The Leica lens with its 25-600mm, and constant, f2.8, aperture all the way from 25-600mm is the camera's best feature. It does a good job when shooting birds, or wildlife in general, or maybe spying on the neighbor while sunbathing for some folks! I attach a Canon video extender (1.4x) to the front of the lens for shooting birds, and that makes it even more powerful. I have captured some great videos of hummingbirds using this setup on a tripod from a distance. The ability to shoot video at 120 and 240 frames/second is a very nice feature as well, and I have used it while taking videos of hummingbirds. What I don't like is the sensor size, but I understand that it wouldn't be possible to package such a lens with a large sensor without making the camera considerably larger and heavier. The ability to shoot RAW is a wonderful feature, but the lack of firmware updates, and no pocket-size (printed) manual is quite annoying. A firmware update would be greatly appreciated so the camera can recognize newer SDXC (64GB) formats. I don't carry the FZ200 nowadays as much as I used to because I bought the Panasonic LF1, which fits nicely in a shirt pocket, has a larger sensor, WiFi, control ring, and an adequate Leica lens. I love the LF1. In addition to the above, the high-speed shooting capability of the FZ200 is a very helpful feature, especially for fast-moving objects. I love this feature. All in all, the FZ200 is a welcome addition to Panasonic's point-n-shoot fine cameras. I highly recommend it for those who are NOT looking for a shirt-pocket size camera. This camera does not fit in a shirt pocket, or even a larger pocket!

A versitle and high quality camera
By Estero
from Estero Florida
I was very happy with my previous Panasonic camera but wanted a little more updated camera. I am an armature that takes a lot of pictures of scenery, wildlife, family and macro shots. The FZ200 can perform all the things that I needed in a camera that does not need a bunch of extra lens. I carry it with me when I go fishing, walking, and to family events. I am amazed at the detail and image quality of this type of camera with a long reach lens. This purchase was one of the best I have made.
Awesome camera

Totally satisfied!
By SonoraDick
from Tucson
After over three years using the DMC-FZ200, it's still my "go-to" camera which is always in my bag, even though I have since purchased a DSLR. I still use it for its extended zoom, and it's great in lower-light situations as well. I appreciate the all-in-one function; no need (or ability) to change a lens, or to carry around another heavy lens. Photos out of the camera are near the quality of my DSLR, and there are so many shooting options I still haven't tried them all. This camera was a great purchase!

The lens is awesome
By O Holandês
from Rio Azul, Parana, Brazil
I use this lens (camera) a lot for Macro (pictures of orchids) and for general landscapes. I bought it for the aperture 2.8 at full zoom. Pictures are amazing. Although I own the camara for a long time allready, it continues to surprise me in such a way, that I wanted others to hear about it. The Buzz is always about MP, but should be on lenses period, this lens is awful. At my home we view the pic's on a 60" TV and quality is amazing.
great in 2012

Should have got this much sooner!
By Sanat
from Virginia
I bought this while in India because my SLR was left home in U.S.A. However, lens cap turned out broken right out of the box (must be a rare occurrence). However, completed my trip to India and Vietnam, and just returned home. Pictures are stunning; don't need an SLR anymore! Impressed by the f2.8 across entire zooming range, which is unrivaled. Would heartily recommend to an enthusiast who is willing to spend on more than just travel camera. This is truly do-anything camera. I am trying it out for macro, but do wish I had a manual focus ring, which is my only gripe...

One fantastic camera
By warpten
from Philly
I've had this camera for over a year, take it everywhere I go. Five trips to Europe, weddings, parties. Especially good for videos including the best wildlife videos and images. I keep looking at all of the alternatives out there and none come even close to the FZ200.

Cant wait to take more pictures
By Ace
from Minneapolis, MN
Still learning about this great camera. I did purchase an external flash and an external microphone which improve light and sound. I am used to an older DSLR with many lenses and no video, so its nice having to use one camera for both. Got some great video of our group sledding down a hill in slow motion. The facial expressions are great. It appears you cannot change the zoom while recording slow motion so that is a negative.

Protests break out in Ahwaz (Arab area of Iran) as deadly dust storms plague the area
Thousands of Ahwazis on the 10th 11th and 12th of February took part in massive organized rallies outside the governor's building in the Ahwaz capital. The protests were an attempt to express the deep discontentment of the Ahwazi people with Iran's occupying policies that intentionally target the environment and the water resources in Al-Ahwaz. The plans for stealing the water of the rivers and dehydrating the wetlands have resulted in severe damage and destruction of Ahwaz's climate and the emergence of toxic dust storms.
The dust storms have been disturbing the lives of Ahwazi citizens and their persistence is triggering fatal respiratory disorders that more likely will develop into cancerous diseases.
Two weeks ago the dust storm caused thousands of Ahwazi citizens, especially the elderly and children, to enter hospitals and clinics after having suffered from suffocation and shortness of breath due to inhaling air containing a high quantity of dust particles.

Enjoy the freedom of outdoor living safe from UV danger
Solasafe is often referred to in a number of other ways such as Corrugated Polycarbonate roofing, sky lights and sky lighting; Solasafe clear sky lights, Polycarbonate sheeting and plastic sky lights; Tinted sky lighting, sky lights; Clear Polycarbonate sheets, sheeting; Tinted Polycarbonate sheeting, sheets.
Sheeting Information
Correct installation is important
Solasafe is fixed and flashed on similar principles as steel roofing. Minimum fall is 5 degrees. Start by fixing the first sheet at the end farthermost from the usual wind direction. If end laps are necessary, start at the bottom corner.
Solasafe is UV protected on one side only. Please read the label on the sheet prior to installation and check each sheet label thoroughly to ensure that the UV protected surface faces the correct way. Sheets incorrectly installed will not withstand the weathering, and discolouration will result.
When used vertically, face the protected side of the sheet in the direction of the most intensive sunlight or exposure to weather.
If sealing is required at side or end laps, use Ampelite lap-seal tape. Incompatible sealants weaken the sheeting and void the warranty.
Allowance needs to be made when drilling screw holes so that the sheet can move freely as it expands and contracts. Screw holes must have a minimum diameter of 10mm for sheet lengths up to 4.2m. Lengths over 4.2 and up to 8.1m require 12mm diameter holes
Clearfix Drills and Oversizes all in one - An alternative method of fixing which also speeds up installation is to use Clearfix combination drill/cutter and weather-proof seal assemblies. These fasteners self drill and create correct clearance hole in the sheet in one operation.
Store Solasafe on a flat surface, in a dry area avoiding contact with chemicals paints and solvents.
If cutting of the sheet is required use a fine tooth handsaw or a power saw fitted with a masonry type cut-off blade. Support the sheet close to where you are cutting. It is good practice to wear protective goggles when cutting any material with a power tool. Ampelite sheeting can be custom cut to length on order, your supplier can arrange this if required.
To reduce noise caused by friction due to expansion and contraction we recommend using Ampelite Anti-noise tape, a 25mm x 3mm white self adhesive tape along the top of battens.

Rated 4 / 5 stars
Started off incredibly strong. The ocarina playing, followed by the lightly chorusing voices and temple bells was a legendary combo.
HOWEVER, if you cut it at 2:45 you would've had a stronger song (in my opinion).
The middle carried on for too long. It semi-killed the mood for me (at around 4:00 I think the song collapsed for me). I applaud you for adding on relatively original work; in another frame of mind I would've enjoyed the addition from 3:00 onwards. But as it is, I definitely would've preferred the song to go from 0:00 to 2:45.
I think from 3:00 you could make a brand new tune, with some modification.
I enjoyed the simplicity of the ending. It reminded me of the Spirit Temple.
Good job, all in all! Keep up the nice work!

Went to see my buddy today who owns a Beverage store. I used to work with him years back when I was younger and been a loyal customer ever since.
When I asked him if he would sell me a keg - figuring it might be a big hassle for him he said "yea sure - 10 bucks is what they charge me" I simply said "done."
When he heard what I wanted the keg for he offered me to save any Grolsch bottles that came through. I said sure but would really prefer all his Sam Adams bottles. He said he would set them all aside for me as they come in and gave me close to 10 cases (with boxes and 6'er holders!) that he had in the bottle room now. I am gonna go through them and discard anything that even looks remotely scummy and then just soak the rest in a bleach bath for a few weeks then do the regular cleaning / sanitization recommended on these forums.
Just curious why you guys don't try this route as well. Now getting the keg might not be as simple - but I dont see why getting the bottles would really be a hassle if you offered to pay the deposit on them or something. Might be an easy way to get bottles.
duck and cover....duck and cover.....
Please do not discuss how to break the Law on HBT.
<shaking head>
Well I feel like an idiot.
I understand the ethics with the keg - but how am I "breaking the law"
I sorta felt it was too good to be true - that's why I made the post asking why more people didn't do this.

Harvard Law School's Susan Crawford and GSA Administrator Dan Tangherlini were among the experts discussing ways to attract top IT talent to government at a recent New America Foundation event.
Salary is only one obstacle to attracting technology experts to the federal workforce. Integrating IT employees into broader agency cultures and being willing to adopt innovations might be just as important, according to panelists at a New America Foundation event on the technology deficit faced by government.
Dan Tangherlini, administrator of the General Services Administration, said bringing IT employees out of the data center dungeons is essential to attracting others to work in government technology.
"You need to convince folks that they're not just a bolt-on, that they're not going to be a mechanic, they're not going to be sitting downstairs with the boiler," Tangherlini said. "They're actually going to be part of the process."
He added that acquiring tech gurus and harnessing 21st-century technology are especially important in the federal government because of technology's potential to alleviate the pinch of budget constraints.
"We're struggling with the ability to deliver the basic services that we're required to deliver," he said. "Demand is not going down, but resource constraint is coming way up. The possibility of being more efficient and effective at delivering the services by leveraging smart technology is very clear."
A report released late last year by Freedman Consulting and commissioned by the Ford Foundation and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation validated what federal managers have known all along: Government salaries make it hard to attract techies. The report states that the salary discrepancy between the public and private sectors is one of the biggest reasons why the government can't land IT professionals.
But it was not the only impediment.
"Among the most common barriers mentioned were those of compensation, an inability to pursue groundbreaking work, and a culture that is averse to hiring and utilizing potentially disruptive innovators," the report states.
Susan Crawford, visiting professor of intellectual property at Harvard Law School and former special assistant to the president for science, technology, and innovation policy, said such a culture could prevent the government from achieving Digital Age literacy.
"We're at this inflection point, a very interesting point in the history of governance, using technology and being more responsive to citizens, and it may actually enrich...democracy," she said. "So it's a great opportunity, and we're at risk of losing it because of the internal structures and obstacles."
Another issue is the divide between those in IT and all other employees. The government could not function without technology, but it has yet to be ingrained in policy-making and governing.
"We're still thinking of technology as a tool that implements policy, and what I'm hoping for is that we get way beyond that, that these things are deeply integrated," Crawford said.
Anne-Marie Slaughter, president and CEO of the New America Foundation and a politics professor at Princeton University, said that although it is clear that the government needs to neutralize the lost salary battle with the private sector, its culture is also not making federal work attractive.
"Part of it, of course, is that [IT professionals] have lots and lots of options in the private sector, and neither government nor civil society can match those salaries or anything like it, so we have to be able to offer something else," Slaughter said.
But bureaucracy and a change-averse culture tend to bury the "X factor" that comes with doing something meaningful as a public servant, she added.
"The presumptive 'yes' is the culture of Silicon Valley, it's the culture of technology," Slaughter said, while the federal government keeps "no" on the tip of its tongue.

The spy agency wants to better integrate cybersecurity into its traditional human intelligence operations.
Certainly, this comment is based upon my experience but after 22 years serving 4 different departments / agencies I have found that if those in middle management cannot understand it or use it to their advantage any new or transformative technology idea is squashed regardless of its potential support of the mission.
We in Government IT are tired. Tired of being picked on by congress for "cost savings" in our salaries, benefits and retirement. Innovation? We'd love to do that, but unlike the private sector, great innovations become government intellectual property, little recognition and no financial incentive. In the private sector it is all about money - good ideas, good products and process, yield successful organizations and profit, which is also used for compensation. In the public sector it is all about doing more with less, which is exactly what congress is pushing each and every day, so you know there is no money to risk on innovation. Of course that could be remedied with a full audit of every government dollar spent especially in DOD...
Trying to implement CAPS, DHS and SANS security priorities to cyber in agency and senior management will not provide money to cyber program to implement. Too many competing missions for funds and IT and cyber is viewed as support mission not prime. This results in crumbling infrastructure and a haves vs have nots programs. Losing both federal and contractor technical people that are not being replaced.

New XMAS Additons
The lovely friend of my sons who made me a Christmas cross-stitch last year, surprised me with another one this year.
Also, my little counter vignette got a new cinnamon bun candle (Michaels on clearance $1) and a cute candycane tree (local drugstore $1) almost forgot the cupcake candle, (Gordman's for $3.99)
Then that naughty Karen surprised me AGAIN with another gift!!!! I had mentioned here how much I liked Jeannespines Woodland Santa's and Karen surprised me with one of my own!!!
She also sent along a "friendship jar" that just is adorable, all the little things one needs when having stress!!!
I don't how to thank her, she is just too sweet & giving to everyone!!!!
My sunroom happens to be decorated in Northwoods, so I made a small vignette with my new Woodsy Santa.
Sorry about some of the blurry pictures, busy trying to get house in shape for Christmas & just had a few seconds to work on a few pictures.
I wish I could send everyone here a Friendship Jar!
Maybe someday I'll get that accomplished. Some of you might have a special friend that could use one, so here's the 13 things they contain and the note to go with them.
Friendship Jar
A Candle meant to light your way
A Flower brightens every day
A Tiny Sponge to dry your tears
and soak up all those needless fears
A Band-Aid meant to help you mend
your feelings when they ache
Erasers come in handy when
you've made a big mistake
A Paper Clip reminds me of
how close I feel to you
A Candy gives you something sweet
when you are feeling blue
A Rubber band - a great big Squeeze
A Chocolate Kiss is sure to please
A Button - cause my lips are sealed,
your secrets all inside
A Golden Thread that's in a knot
to say our hearts are tied
A Magic Star to wish upon
to make your dreams come true
A Little Heart - cause that's the place
where I shall cherish you!!!
The jar used is fairly small by the way! The heart and
star I put in mine are tiny wood ones from craft store,
The flower is a tiny silk one, and the candle can be little one like you put on a cake or a mini tea light.
I saw this idea some years ago and thought it was a 'keeper'.
Yacht, I'm glad you got the jar and little Santa safely.
hugs, Karen
I miss crosstitching, that is so sweet of your friend to do that for you. I love your Santa chef with the new candle, too cute, but the rolling pin Santa is my favorite.
That "sexy" Santa chef of yours is really, really looking "SWEET" with all the new treats you added! LOL! I think it's the "white tee" he is wearing...needs the sleeves rolled a bit like my DH's teenage days! LOL! Well...your Santa does have such a cute face!
Looks like you found a happy home for your Santa Purplemoon's gifts, too...love it! TFS! Jeanne S.
Yachter, your new additions look wonderful together. Beautiful coss stitch picture your friend made you. Your cupcake candle is the perfect under your dome. I just bought one of those domes for DGD birthday that has Happy Birthday and some presents painted on it today at Ross. Great buys on your new candles.
So sweet of Karen to fill your wish with an adorable Woodland Santa. It looks great in your Northwood collection. The friendship jar sounds like a fun thing to make. Thanks for the poem and help to make these, Karen.
Thanks all for looking, I love the fake pastries in candles, and was so surprised to find some this time of year.
I also love the things Karen has sent me this year, I treasure all of them...
Hope everyone has a great Christmas & not too stressful!
Yacht, I meant to tell you how delightful that counter vignette is with your Chef Santa, and all the other goodies. It would make ol' Scrooge smile!
By the way, I personally liked the way spelled additions.
Your version is PERFECT for us here...Add it ons! LOL
Hugs, Karen

Tracheal intubation (commonly known as intubation) is the placement of a flexible plastic tube into the trachea in order to maintain an open airway or to serve as a conduit through which to administer oxygen or other drugs. It is commonly performed in emergency situations and critically ill or injured patients, but intubation is also used in patients who will be undergoing a lengthy surgery that requires them to be under anesthesia for a significant number of hours. In order to intubate,...

ECMO comes with many serious risks and is only used in severe cases of cardiac or respiratory failure...

Duck Dynasty star to run for Congress in LA-5?

As I was putting together the latest roundup of horrible ObamaCare news, I found myself wondering how Congress could reconcile a failure to repeal or defund this disaster with their basic fiduciary duty to the American taxpayer. I know this will sound hopelessly quaint, but the government is supposed to be a careful steward of our public treasury. The treasury is filled with property confiscated | Read More »

In other words, Republican Leaders have agreed the NRSC will not use this | Read More »

The United States Government stores a bunch of silly documents written maybe 230 years ago. I'm not sure why. The writing is well-nigh illegible and Ezra Klien assures us that people just don't get documents written over 100 years ago. They should recycle the paper. The US Government certainly doesn't believe all the silly things written in the Declaration of Independence. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,…" Seriously?
Bill S., a fellow Frontpage Writer at RS.com, offers us a flagrant example of just how much of a joke our current Presidential Administration considers the words from the Declaration that I cited above. Apparantly, if the government official in question works for a member of The United States Congress then implying that any of them are created equal will get you served with a Writ of YAFKM.* They certainly are not created equally when OPM bills them for their health plans. As you can read below, some people are created more equal and will be receiving a discount that the rest of us just aren't getting.Read More »

Ariel Detergent (Mexico) What say you?
I'm a huge fan of Persil and still have yet to find anything that lives up to it's performance. However I decided to grab a bag of Ariel today. One load deep and I kinda like it. Since it was not labeled has HE I worried about the suds. I used the same amount as I do Persil and there were no problems, low suds cool! Still to early to tell and I'm on the fence with the sent, but maybe it's not that bad. I know there are endless threads on this detergent but what do you guys think?
Just today I found Ariel at Wallmart and it's different from the pack I got at the grocery store. This pack says Ariel USA and it is a white powder with blue speckles. The pack I got at the grocery store is a light blue powder with red a dark blue speckles, it even has a warning label stating " Contains Sodium Sulfate, Sodium, Polyphosphate an Alkyl, Ariel Sodium Sulfate". The Ariel USA bag has no of that. What's the difference? How best are these detergents used, for colors or whites, or both?
Mieleforme, I have not tried Ariel yet, but a Walmart I frequent has the Ariel USA version. The bag says that it contains no phosphates (which are illegal in most if not all states). I was going to try it as I tried and really like FOCA detergent, but I haven't yet. It seemed to have a really strong scent, and I don't really care for that.
Thanks izeve!
I grabbed a bag of FOCA also, washing whites with it right now. I'm thinking the bag of Ariel that is the real Mexican product is going to be better than the American Wallmart product. The sent doesn't bother me because it's all but gone after the clothes are dry. Even when I neglect to select extra rinsing detergent smells are faint after the wash. Test time!
I use 1/3 cup of FOCA for a full load in my front loader (4.2 cf). By a full load I mean that the dry items fill the drum completely and get compacted to 1/2 or 2/3 when wet. The version of FOCA I got has instructions in English and does not contain phosphates.
Great, thanks for the responses. I think 1/3 cup would be a good starting point for me then, with heavily soiled loads getting 1/2 cup. Mine are also the full mexican version, with phosphates i believe. I also picked up a container of "LA's Totally Awesome Oxygen Cleaner" was really cheap ($1.20 for 16 oz). I'll report back with results.

My wife and I were both raised in the Northeastern US. After moving south we missed the type of Italian Restaurant that we used to frequent in New York or the North End of Boston. This place took us back immediately, the food, service and friendly atmosphere were so good we had to return a second time in our short visit to Seattle. One more tip, if you don't see it on the menu, just ask, we received 3 different items that were our favorites that were nowhere on the menu.

Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Thy song tis inspirational, one that lifts many spirits when one feels deep sorrow. I like this song, but one complaint i have. One not too major, but my one request is that you make this song a tad bit longer.
(i suck at attempting to write medieval, but oh well)
Good enough for me!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I really can feel this music.
Thy words dost go deep to my heart.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Okay, I'm not going to pretend I know music really well enough to judge, because I don't.
But, I do know what I like and I LOVE this.
This could be used for so many things by creators and it's nice enough to listen for fun.
I love it.
Thou dost know the truth.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
An inspiring and delightful piece, and aptly titled at that! My praise and gratitude are thine, good Bosa, for this fine work. Truly, thou dost us honor in gracing Newgrounds with thy music.
May thy melodies be always sweet, and thy instruments always in tune. :D
My eternal gratitude, my lady.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
That's pretty neat I always enjoy medieval music in general.
So do I! It is an excellent form of music.
