Heavy Duty Work Truck, carries a payload, pulls a trailer loaded with ease with the four speed, ( High and Low 4 wheel drive
Back Seats could allow for more leg room
Work Horse — There's nothing really that I don't like about this truck, it is what it is a HD work truck with a 5.4L V8 300 HP engine, Great for just driving to work or the grocery store, real comfortable inside with all dash controls within easy reach. Pull's a trailer with ease and you really forget that you have one hooked up. Great all around truck and while it has 223,230 miles on it. It has been under a disciplined structured maintenance program and is still in great running condition and could run for another 200,000 miles with proper maintenance
Primary Use: Commuting to work

I love it! It's such a sexy truck! Best purchase I've ever made.
Gas mileage could be a little bit better
2007 Ford F-150 — White Chocolate...what more can I say? I have never owned a truck before, but when my coworker Brandon let me know that THE truck to own was White Chocolate F-150...it piqued my interest. The cost of ownership is a tad higher than I expected with gas prices the way they are now, but it's a super super truck. I don't have any regrets about purchasing it. The color and the chrome package is really what makes it. And it's all factory. I'm not an aftermarket kind of guy. It's great with the stock equipment. Totally satisfied Ford Customer!

Solid truck, great styling, and power to tow.
Great Truck, Fun To Drive — Great truck, fun to drive, and very flexible. I purchased this RWD truck in California and only need to take the 22" 305 tires off, put on the snow tires and 17" allows for winter and I'm set. I've never had any trouble with this truck in ice and snow of Wisconsin.

This truck does everything I need it to do. As a daily commuter to hauling a 8,500 lb travel trailer from northern Ohio to Cincinnati. Great power and awesome ride.
Gas mileage of course. It's a truck so can't complain.
Love. Love My Truck! — I love this truck. Maintenance cost has been low. Very reliable. Now has 75 k miles on it. Already had those pesky spark plugs changed out. Other than than and the oil changes no big issues. 1 set of brake pads on front. Occasional growling noise when AC is on and towing. Great truck.

2007 Ford F-150 King Ranch Review
Great looks. Quiet ride. Creature comforts. Wonderful stereo.
No Built-In Bluetooth
Great Truck - Versatile And Fun To Drive — It's a great truck, yet has all the comforts of a car. I was looking for an everyday driver that I could also take to decent restaurant without being embarrased. The King Ranch is a truck, but one that cleans up extremely well. The things that have surprised me the most are the quiet ride and the great stereo. No kidding! I got the nav setup with audiophile stereo and I thought it would be mediocre at best. It's really a great car stereo, with pounding bass from the subwoofer beneath the rear seat, as well as good voice and musical clarity. I've put aftermarket systems in other cars that didn't sound as good. I wish it had come with Bluetooth built-in, but I didn't have any difficulty installing a Parrot. The ride is smooth. Reasonable acceleration. Plenty of room for four adults. Comfortable seats. Gas mileage isn't great, but then I didn't expect anything better. I am getting about 14.5 mpg on average - and better than that on the road. I test drove a Toyota Tundra and also looked hard at the GMC Sierra. I'm glad I went with the King Ranch. No regrets.

Great Overall Truck
The gearing is a little high between 1st and 2nd
Ford F-150 — When towing our 25' camper the truck is stable and smooth. The truck brakes considerably well under tow also. Since owning the truck I have not had to repair anything. I put a K&N intake with a Jet Chip to give it a little more performance at peak horsepower and better throttle response.

Good solid truck
Poor mileage
Good Truck!would Buy Again! — This has been a good truck, nothing to major in the repair department. Typical maintenance. Good power and towing capabilities. Good handling, and traction. Brakes are good,stops in a resonable amount of distance . Interior is comfortable and spacious, ample storage, and amenities. Could of used a stain resistant material for seats,door panels, handles, and steering wheel.hard to clean and keep that way . Overall it has been a good tough solid truck. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another. Doesn't have the best mileage , but resonable.

2007 Ford F-150 XL Long Bed Review
Spacious, powerful, and plenty of cargo room and towing capacity.
Lack of back seat, extremely long so hard to park in some lots.
2007 Ford F-150 Xl — This car is extremely useful but it is hard to get past the fact that the XL is a very basic model. No power seats and no power windows, 2 very big drawbacks. However it more than makes up with its towing capacity and cargo capacity in the long bed. Gas mileage is actually very good; only wound up having to fill it up about once a month with daily driving.

Westwood up 2; Tiger, others in hunt
GULLANE, Scotland -- Nobody expected it to take this long, certainly not him.
Through scandal, scorn, injury and athletic redemption, Tiger Woods has re-emerged as the No. 1 player in the game, with only a major championship keeping him from a full return to glory. That is now within his grasp at the game's oldest tournament, a 15th major championship one day away in the land of golf's birth.
More 2013 Open Champ. Coverage
Lee Westwood has a chance to erase the talk about never winning the Big One. He says the pressure won't get to him. Ian O'Connor asks: Do you believe him? Story
Let's count the reasons why Tiger Woods won't win at Muirfield. Now let's throw all that into the North Sea, Rick Reilly writes. Story
The stakes are high in the final round of the Open Championship for many big names. Bob Harig asks: What's on the line for each of them? Story
• Rd. 3 Grades | Rd. 3 Scores
• Experts' Final-Round Picks
• Stats & Info: Sunday Schooling
Woods has not been this close through 54 holes of a major since his life imploded nearly four years ago. An excellent opportunity awaits Sunday at Muirfield.
But he will have to chase down third-round leader Lee Westwood, whose own journey to major glory has been longer and far more painful. And he'll have to hold off those around him, including Hunter Mahan, who along with Woods -- and recently Westwood -- employs Sean Foley as coach.
Mahan matched the best round of the day with a 3-under 68. He is two strokes behind Westwood and tied with Woods, who will play his final round with Masters champion Adam Scott, who employs Woods' former caddie, Steve Williams.
"I'm looking forward to it,'' said Woods, whose 1-over 72 included a bogey at the par-5 17th, the same hole Westwood birdied to take a two-shot lead. "I'm looking forward to the challenge of it. I've been in this position before in the past five years, and I've been in the hunt. And I'm in it again. Hopefully tomorrow I can play well and win the tournament.''
Each of Woods' 14 major titles has come when he's held at least a share of the 54-hole lead, a trend he hopes to break Sunday. Of his 78 PGA Tour titles, 14 have come when he was two strokes or more behind the leader entering the final round.
Perhaps of more concern is his recent weekend play in the majors. Although his third-round 72 came on another treacherous day on the hard, fast-running links at Muirfield, it was also the 13th straight weekend round in a major that he's failed to shoot in the 60s. But seven of the last 13 majors winners have come from multiple strokes behind, including last year's Open winner, Ernie Els, who was six back.
In truth, given the severity of the test and the possibility of danger lurking, any number of players have a chance to hoist the Claret Jug. Some 17 players are within six strokes of the lead, including major winners Angel Cabrera, Zach Johnson and Phil Mickelson.
Second-round leader Miguel Angel Jimenez shot a 77 and dropped into a tie for 11th, six shots back in a group that includes Sergio Garcia, Jason Day, Dustin Johnson and Brandt Snedeker.
Celebrating 40?
With a win on Sunday at the Open Championship, Lee Westwood would become the fourth player since 1970 to claim his first major championship after turning 40. Here's the list he'll be looking to join:
|2011 Open Champ.
|Darren Clarke
|1998 Masters
|Mark O'Meara
|1992 U.S. Open
|Tom Kite
|-- Westwood turned 40 in April
-- ESPN Stats & Information
This will be the sixth time Tiger Woods has entered the final round of a major either 1 or 2 shots back. Here's how he's fared on Sunday:
|2007 U.S. Open
|2007 Masters
|2006 Masters
|2003 Open Champ.
|1999 U.S. Open
|-- Never won a major while trailing
-- ESPN Stats & Information
Westwood forged ahead with a 1-under 70 that was buoyed by a crucial 12-foot bogey putt at the 16th followed by the birdie on No. 17. The No. 1 player in the world for a time, the 40-year-old Westwood has 22 European Tour victories. He moved to Florida earlier this year in hopes of giving himself better preparation for the majors.
"You try to picture yourself winning the Open Championship tonight, but forget about it tomorrow and go and tee off down the first and focus on it in the middle of the fairways with the first tee shot and then go from there,'' he said. "The way this golf course is set up, it is a very strategic golf course. You have to plot your way around it. Most major championships are like that. They grind you into the ground. Mentally and physically, it's draining, and you just have to focus on the job at hand and pile the pars up and try to make birdies whenever you can.''
Mahan made five of them Saturday en route to a 68 that ultimately put him in the final group with Westwood. Last month at the U.S. Open at Merion, he was also in the final group along with Mickelson, but he shot 75 to finish in a tie for fourth.
"I'm just trying to play golf,'' Mahan said. "I'm not trying to add to anything or make it more than it is, just enjoying kind of the opportunity of playing in a major, playing in a British. I enjoyed it playing in the U.S. Open. I enjoyed playing with Phil. I didn't think that was a distraction or a hindrance or anything. You just kind of accept things and appreciate them.''
Scott was the hard-luck loser at the Open a year ago, bogeying the final four holes at Royal Lytham & St. Anne's to lose by a stroke to Els. He bounced back to win his first major in a playoff over Cabrera at the Masters, and now is in position to become the first player since Woods in 2005 to win a green jacket and a Claret Jug during the same year.
"It's a good feeling to sit here in this position, absolutely,'' Scott said after a 70. "It's completely different. I think I go out there not carrying the weight of the lead or not having won a major. So it's a different feeling. Hopefully, I can play enough quality shots to give myself chances to be in the hunt right at the end.
"But it's a long way off. The course, it can turn around on you in a heartbeat out there, if you're not careful. I'll be treading cautiously tomorrow.''
Who will hoist the Claret Jug? Catch final-round action live on ESPN, WatchESPN and ESPN Radio beginning at 6 a.m. ET.
That appears to have been Woods' game plan from the start. He's hit just one driver in the tournament and has done his best to stay out of trouble. He hit 12 of 14 fairways and 14 of 18 greens on Saturday and probably should have gotten more out of the round for as well as he struck the ball. He needed 33 putts, but the crucial error came at the 17th, where he hit his second shot into a bunker and had to play it out sideways, leading to the bogey.
"I'm pleased where I'm at; I'm only two back,'' Woods said. "There's only one guy ahead of me, and we'll see what they do.
"I've got 14 of these things and I know what it takes to win it. He (Westwood) has won tournaments all over the world; he knows how to win golf tournaments. He's two shots ahead, and we're going to go out there and both compete and play.
"It's not just two of us. There's a bunch of guys who have a chance to win this tournament. And all of us need to really play well to win it.''

Spread the love all year long. Textured Heart Decor from Tiffany Windsor goes great with any set up and makes a great gift. You'll love this fantastic home craft tutorial.
- Paper (for pattern)
- Marking pen
- Scissors
- Craft knife
- Canvas (finished example is 4" x 4")
- Plain plastic for stencil (I used shrink plastic)
- Texture paste
- Palette knife
- Stencil paint creme (I used pink, purple, yellow, copper)
- Stencil brushes (I use one brush for each color)
- Background design stencil
- Wet wipes
- Paper towels
- Fold paper in half and draw heart.
- Cut heart pattern from paper.
- Place on canvas to determine if right shape and size. Cut down to size if needed.
- Trace pattern on to shrink plastic or stencil plastic.
- Cut inside heart pattern. I like to use a craft knife to start my cut and then finish with scissors.
- Remember that you are cutting the inside of the cut from the plastic. This will create a stencil. Be sure that you leave plenty of stencil plastic around the outside of your heart. This will help to keep the extra paste off your canvas.
- Place stencil on canvas. For the next step, I just hold the stencil in place but if you like, you can also add double stick tape to the back of the stencil to help hold it in place on the canvas while you apply your texture paste.
- Squeeze a generous amount of texture paste on canvas.
- Use your palette knife to spread around.
- Keep hold of your stencil so it does not move around the canvas while you continue to move your paste with the palette knife.
- Carefully lift the stencil straight up to reveal the textured heart pattern. Set aside to dry overnight.
- Load stencil paint creme onto stencil brushes. I like to have my brushes pre-loaded with color before I start painting my project.
- Re-align stencil pattern back over dried texture paste.
- Apply stencil paint creme with stencil brush in a swirling motion in desired areas changing to new colors and blending the paint as you go.
- Remove stencil.
- Apply background color to canvas (I used copper in my example. It may take two coats of this color to get a rich copper color. Be sure to color the dimensional sides of the heart.
- Let project set overnight. Stencil on background pattern with yellow paint creme. Let dry (this may take several days before paint is dry to the touch.

text: Home > Medical > Colds and flu > Treatment Updated 11 July 2014 Go the oseltamivir route Down with the flu? While there are many over-the-counter drugs you can try, there's really only one effective solution if you live in SA: oseltamivir, marketed as Tamiflu. 0 Down with the flu? While there are many over-the-counter drugs you can try, there's really only one effective solution if you live in South Africa: oseltamivir, marketed as Tamiflu. This drug belongs to a class of medicines known as neuraminidase inhibitors, which work by preventing the proliferation of the flu virus in the body. Oseltamivir can be used to treat the flu and can also prevent people from becoming ill after being exposed to a sick person. Neuraminidase enables the virus to continue infecting host cells. When neuraminidase is inhibited, the virus is no longer able to enter host cells and dies. The virus is therefore no longer able to spread. In studies on animals, oseltamivir was successful in treating H5N1 (bird flu). The drug successfully treats and prevents flu (A and B strains) in humans older than one year. The 75g Tamiflu capsule needs to be taken twice a day for five days and has to be administered within 48 hours after the appearance of symptoms in order to be effective. After a person has been exposed to someone with the flu, one capsule should be taken daily for ten days. Research is currently being done on intravenous administration of the drug. – (Health24, Elsabé Brits, Die Burger) From our sponsor Those training for Cape Argus Cycle Tour at risk of colds and flu Keep colds at bay while travelling Read Health24's Comments Policy Comment on this story 0 comments Add your comment Thank you, your comment has been submitted.

I am 42 years old and have been living with HIV for 17 years. I discovered I was HIV positive after running a fever for a long time. I went to the hospital; the doctor said that I had a lung infection and ran some X-rays. The fever went on so doctors conducted a series of tests to find the cause, and that's when they checked for HIV.25 Nov 2012 - 10:42am
An 11-month-old boy from the mainland has been diagnosed with a deadly and drug-resistant superbug, the seventh such case in the city's hospitals.
Although none of the patients have been infected in the city, medical experts warn that the highly contagious NDM-1 could spread rapidly as more victims come to Hong Kong. None of the patients locally has died.15 May 2012 - 12:00am

Reese Witherspoon | Reese Witherspoon pics in Designer Jeans
Reese Witherspoon in Black Orchid Boyfriend Jeans in Splash
Back from promoting her film at Toronto Film Festival, Reese Witherspoon was seen grabbing lunch with a friend. She wore a pair of Black Orchid boyfriend style jeans in Splash with a button down blouse and Valentino flats.
We used to see Reese out in Black Orchid quite often, so it's nice to see her in the brand again. I attended the brand's press day back in April and am excited to see the fall styles out finally. The denim jacket in freshwater wash is still one of my favorite pieces and I could definitely see Reese wearing it.
Reese Witherspoon in a Denim Shirt
Reese Witherspoon grabbed some lunch in Venice Beach and went for some massage therapy at her friend's house after.
Reese wore a denim shirt with a stone coloured skirt and heels for the day. I think she looks really pretty here! I especially love those heels! Not many celebs choose to wear denim shirts in this way, so it's a nice refreshing change.

Reese Witherspoon in Frame Le Garcon Jeans in Berkley Square
Reese Witherspoon was photographed while out shopping wearing a pair of Frame Le Garcon jeans in Berkley Square. She wore them with a blue silk tee and matching red belt and pumps.
I like how this pair has a slim fit on Reese and the slouchy style isn't too overwhelming on her petite frame. I am not surprised to see Reese in Frame since she tends to favor classic, well fitting styles and everything she wears is well tailored. You can buy these jeans online from Shopbop.com for $199.
Who Wore It Best: Paige Kylie Crop in Bicycle Print
Paige's Kylie Crop pants are a fun take on the printed denim trend and feature a quirky bicycle print all over. We've seen three celebrities with very different styles wearing them.
Anne Hathaway chose the red pair, which she styled with a black tee shirt and flats, while Reese Witherspoon opted for the white pair, but styled them similarly, and Olivia Wilde chose the light blue color and wore them with a graphic print tank top and sandals.

Debt Settlement
If you owe a large amount of money on unsecured debts, you may require the services of a debt settlement lawyer. Unsecured debts include medical bills, student loans, credit cards, store and gas cards, personal loans, collection accounts, and bounced checks. For these sorts of debts, lenders will usually accept less than the full amount if it's clear you don't have the money to pay them (especially if the original amount has continued to grow with interest, late charges, and collection costs). A debt settlement attorney can negotiate with the lender and objectively present the facts in your case. Oftentimes, unsecured debt lenders would rather settle with you than take a chance on getting nothing if you file for bankruptcy. If the negotiation is successful, the creditor may even be convinced to take the settled debt off your credit history.

I would like to know is how the owners of the quarry were allowed to clearcut and level a mountain top unchallenged and mar the once green, lush and beautiful view to the south of Black Mountain that we all see from the valley?? It left nothing but a huge, horriable horizontal scar for all of us to 'enjoy'.
Is this part of the 'vision'?
a resident of Whisman Station
on Mar 27, 2013 at 10:28 pm
Chuck, is the quarry located on land owned by the MidPen OSD?
Then you gripe is located elsewhere. Its valid, but does not pertain to this story.

I can't bear to go through with it I "need" (there opinion, not mine) to get all four out, under general anesthesia. But I would like to know what my options are...and I would like to find a really good surgeon...
I'm thinking of switching dental providers first. And then asking my new providers about it.
It really freaks me out, can I have a family member in the room with me? My teeth aren't hurting me. They said my teeth may get crooked...but still ugh!! I'm looking at other threads on here, and some are using ibuprofen instead of the vicodin they give you. What are the downsides of vicodin?
Did anyone not do it? I don't want to be X number of years down the road, and have it bite me in the a**. How do I get over this fear?
P.S. I need to go in for a cleaning, but don't want them bugging me about the surgery.

run power to my shed
I would like to run power to my shed. Shed is was built in June and was approved by the home owners association
and I did the proper permit steps and it was inspected and signed off on by the city so I'm all legal and stuff...
shed is 12 X 20...
I jumped ahead of myself and bought some stuff from home depot...
then I realized that I cant really do any of the work, has to all be done by an electrician. Even mounting
the box etc... makes sense I guess so here goes...
my shed is about 55 feet from the back of my house. when I had the house built about 15 years ago I had
an outside outlet installed on the back of the house. It runs off a 20 amp breaker in the garage
labeled "garage gfi". I turned off the breaker and it looks like the gfci outlet in the garage and
the outside outlets are the only thing controlled by it. (and im never using both at the same time
either working in the garage OR in the shed)
I purchased a green box with a cover on it from home depot that has a gfci outlet and a switch to
turn it off and on. supposed to be for use outside but I figured it would be perfect for the the shed.
I only use 1 tool at a time and this has 2 gfci outlets so 1 for the lamp and 1 for the tool (drill, saw, dremel etc....)
I have been getting by with running a 100 ft 15 amp extension cord from the back of the house off the
outside outlet I'm talking about, no problems has all the power I need...
sorry for the long post, but want as accurate info as I can get form you all :)
on to the nitty gritty:
1. What I want to do is run power from the outside outlet to the green GFCI outlet box/switch in the shed.
green box says "This device must only be connected to a circuit with GROUND FAULT PROTECTION". I think I'm ok
cause the outside outlet that I want to run it off of is gfci right??? basically remove the outlets,
wire in the shed and cover the box with a cover plate/gasket...
2. next question is do I need a permit? seems like a simple question but apparently not...
When I look on the permit site in my area it seems to indicate that I do need a permit
and that the contractor is supposed to get the permit???
"A permit will be required when any construction work is conducted. Electrical, plumbing
and mechanical permitting should be acquired by the contractor. Permits are required for
all sidewalk and driveway approach work."
however the electrician I was thinking of using said that I did not need a permit to
hook up an outlet in the shed???? I know it may vary from location to location but what is the norm???
3. I bought 100 ft of 3/4" liquid tight flex conduit (carflex, non metal kind) and would like to
dig a ditch and run it from the left side of my house to the left side of my shed, would like to run
it up through the floor and mount the green box about 4 ft high on the left side of the shed about halfway down the wall.
door is a big double door 4 ft wide. Is the liquid tight ok to make the full run? or do I have to transition to something
stronger coming out of the ground at the house and into the shed??? is it ok to run the
conduit up through the floor in the shed or does it have to come through the outside wall?
4. What kind of wire do I need to buy to make the run?? I read 12/2 would do but seems like there
are so many different kinds... 21/2 UF will pull through the conduit but seems a bit tight and would be hell
should I need to have a maintenance done on it later... I read I can just do UF but would rather
have the piece of mind of a conduit in case something goes wrong later... only wanna do this once
and I already bought the carflex.
5. we have a number to call so that the city can come out and mark the utilities before I dig.
If they approve the area, my plan was to dig the ditch myself to save a little money. Is this
OK??? surely the electrical contractor does not have to dig the ditch lol... HOW DEEP??? HOW wide???
the electrician I talked to first said 24 inches then he said 11 inches then I saw 18 inches on line..
just trying to gather info before I talk to the next electrician/city.... soooo confusing!
A starting point would be to load up everything you bought and take it to returns at home depot (: Sorry, couldn't help it but that just reminds me of all the customers I've had with a bag full of blue boxes, switch plates, and random fittings saying "I've got all the material for you". Your job is somewhat difficult as far as the correct materials. The maximum length for the liquid tight flex is 6 feet which you are a bit over for your run. It would be very interesting to see much of any wire make it through ~70 feet of liquid tight. The burial depth is 12" if it is a GFCI protected circuit. 18" would be for conduit without GFCI protection, 24" would be for UF with no GFCI protection.
Not sure about the little green box but it sounds like something that is made to be cord and plug connected? Really do not need it. Just use a metal 4x4 box with a mudring for a GFCI or a mudring with GFCI/ switch.
You will need to buy some thwn wire (the individual black, white, and green) in whatever length, if you decide to run pipe. 3/4 or 1" pvc would be good. UF is really not supposed to be used in pipe except to protect it as it comes out of the ground. The individual wires will pull easy and be suitable for underground. Into the shed you will either have to pipe directly in with an LB fitting heading to your box. Or if it gets tricky, end the pipe and wires in a weather proof junction box outside and come into the shed with MC, indoor NM cable, or some liquid tight (6 ft !) At the house, just stub the pipe up to your outdoor outlet and put a weatherproof outdoor box over the existing outlet box (the kind with an open back). That is unless your outdoor outlet already has an exterior box (sticking out from the house).
I believe most cities would be happy to sell a permit for as little as changing a light switch. In my area it seems that permits are pulled for remodels (except for non-permited remodels like 50% of them are) or for anything involving the power company (such as a service upgrade), or of course new construction (whole house, large addition). I suppose everyone is breaking rules but I really don't know of anyone that goes to pull a permit when someone is putting in a new circuit for their freezer or adding 10 recessed lights to their ceiling.
"I've got all the material for you". bwahhh ha ha.. yeah tell me about it...
thanks! so HOW DO I KNOW THAT THE OUTSIDE
receptacles (and in turn the wires run to the shed) are in fact gfci protected??? breaker in the garage is labeled "gfi garage" and the outlet in the garage is a gfci outlet.
but the one on the outside of the house that is also controlled by this breaker looks like a normal outlet...
I think the green box would still work, its meant to be wired in not plugged in has a 1/2" or 3/4" knockout on the bottom... and instructions tell how to wire it up... after its wired in you have 2 gfci receptacles and a switch to turn it off and on (and heck I did pay 30 bucks for it lol)
the extra liquid tight will be good for drainage for my landscaping later I guess :)
I like the 3/4 pvc pipe and the individual thwn wire (the individual black, white, and green) run should be easy if the burial debth is 12 inches and it's ok to come up through the floor of the shed. straight then 90 degrees up the floor to the box, straight out the other end to the box on the house up 90 degrees... piece of cake...
thanks! I pushed test on the GFCI outlet in the garage and it turns power off to the outlet outside. So looks like I would only have to bury the cable 12". thats good cause 12" I can do myself, 18-24 I would have to hire someone... too much limestone here...
Rigid or intermediate metal conduit only requires 6 inches of depth.
It runs about $1 a foot, but only needing a trench 7-8 inches deep (the burial depth is to the top of the conduit in the trench) makes it often easier and faster to install (even with a ditch witch).
You might want to consider just putting a sub-panel in the shed.
That would allow you to have more than a single circuit.
ahhh so the burial depth is to the top of the conduit...
that rigid sounds even better... worth the $1 a foot if it saves me from digging 13-14 inches....
going to call the city and have them come out and map my utilities first so I don't hit anything white digging and then I'll go from there...
thanks to everyone that gave me info! really helped allot, now I can talk to an electrician with some idea of what I want to do...
Finished up a rental house repair a few months ago.
About 35 feet from the house to the light pole.
While digging for plants a previous tenant cut the UF cable that the previous owner buried about 6-8 inches deep.
It took about 2 hours to trench out, install rigid, pull wires, and have everything back up and running.
Only needing a 7-8 inch deep trench makes short work of things.
No ditch witch rental, two people, two hours, done.
The plugs of grass were put along the trench (if you can really call it that) on one side and extra dirt on a tarp on the other side.
Everything went right back into place.
If you look now you cannot even tell were the work was done.
no grass seed, no sod, nothing special except telling the tenant to water the area every evening.
Since I pay the water and trash anyway, they did a great job.

I've used Jim for 2 closing's over the past 5 years. I'm a young adult and have learned a great deal about closing from Jim. Both times, there was a last minute issue in the closing room and Jim advised and handled it, which led to me saving a great deal of money. My last closing was so convoluted from the builder that I was beyond frustrated, however Jim was the solidity that I needed. He infromed me of my options and the probability of which direction it would go. In the end, the builder and I reached an agreement, but it was because of Jim that we got there. I plan to work with Jim for my next closing as well.

July 29, 2013 in Nation/World
BATON ROUGE, La. – An East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office task force arrested at least 12 men since 2011 under a sodomy law invalidated a decade ago by the U.S. Supreme Court, a newspaper reported Sunday.
The most recent arrest was July 18 when a man discussed or agreed to have sex with a male undercover agent, the Advocate reported. The task force was trying to deter sexual activities at public parks.
Although sex in public and sex solicitation for money are illegal in Louisiana, neither was part of these 12 cases, and most were arrested after agreeing to have sex at a private residence, District Attorney Hillar Moore III told the newspaper.
"The sheriff's office's intentions are all good," Moore said. "But from what I've seen of these cases, legally, we found no criminal violation."
The Supreme Court ruled in 2003 that a Texas law against oral or anal sex was invalid. Louisiana was among nine states with such laws. Richard Ieyoub, then attorney general, said the high court's ruling made Louisiana's law unenforceable.
The sheriff's office sent a statement Sunday to the newspaper saying it "should have taken a different approach" to worries about park safety, the newspaper reported.
Metro Councilman John Delgado said Sheriff Sid Gautreaux owed an apology to the men arrested and the entire parish.
Delgado said he will file public records requests to determine when the district attorney's office told the sheriff's office that the men targeted had committed no crime.

Historical Traveler Reviews Stone Canyon Inn Tropic
Stay here!!!!!
wow....it was more than we expected
if you are travelling to Bryce Canyon, you MUST stay here....
it is located in Tropic, a 20 minute drive from the enterance to Bryce Canyon, but from the location, you can see the "hoodoo's"
it is spectacular...
we stayed in one of the cabins, and it was clean and quiet...it is located on its own property in the wilderness....deer and rabbit all around....just stunning
i wouldn't stay anywhere else!

Super cute cabins
Labor Day trip to Utah and stayed at Stone Canyon the first night. The cabin was sooooo awesome....it was clean, cozy, and had an kewl fire place. Seemed like it was just built and the furnishings were new. We cooked breakfast the next morning and I didnt have to bring any utensils, frying pans or anything because it was all there already. It had 2 queen beds and a pull out sofa bed. Only bad thing was that the jacuzzi had dirty water in it but we were so tired from activities that it didnt matter. BTW: water rafting in Marysvale and ATVing in Bryce canyon is a MUST!
Wonderful B&B
A little more expensive than some of the other motels on our grand tour of the South West but well worth it. A lovely place to stay. This is a very comfortable,well appointed and maintained bed and breakfast. The young hosts are very friendly and really make you feel at home. The breakfasts were superb and set you up for the rest of the day. All facilities such as the patio, lounge with library are available for all the guests. It is only a tree mile walk into the quiet part of Bryce Canyon.
Highly recommended, a great place to stay.
The Nicest Place to Stay in Bryce
We finished our grand circle trip at Bryce Canyon and loved our stay at the Stone Canyon Inn. We stayed in one of the brand new cabins which had a deck with a private hot tub. The inside was extremely well decorated, brand-new kitchen, very private. During the short drive to Bryce Canyon, I patted myself on the back for my inn choice every time we passed another hotel closer to the park.
The inn-keepers were fantastic - extremely nice, great breakfast, very knowledgeable.
You could hike into the park from just down the road - definitely ask the inn-keepers for more details.
We got to see two of the rooms in the inn - and they looked gorgeous as well.
I wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else in Bryce.
If heaven were a B&B ...
My partner and I recently spent just one night here, and how we wish we had been able to spend more. After having passed through a few tiny towns in Utah that made us want to press more firmly on the accelerator of our rental SUV, we were a little afraid as we approached Tropic after a day of hiking at Bryce Canyon. Access to the Stone Canyon Inn is via a dirt road, surrounded by absolutely nothing. It was hard to believe there'd even be a B&B out here. But then the inn came into view, and we knew our fears were unfounded. The inn itself is a magnificent stone and post-and-beam construction, surrounded by wilderness that I believe is part of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The owner, and designer of the inn, Dixie, showed us to our room, and we hope we didn't look too much like hicks as our jaws dropped at the sight. The Ivy room was the most spacious and elegant room we've ever stayed in. A whirlpool tub with a window looking out onto a beautiful butte was the centerpiece of a bathroom that was bigger than some other motel and B&B rooms we've stayed in. This also has to be the quietest inn we've ever stayed at: although it was full the night of our stay, we didn't hear a sound and could have easily thought we had the place to ourselves. Even though we weren't able to stay for long, having to set out for Moab the next day, we think this would be a prime spot from which to explore Bryce and some of the other unkown hikes and bike rides nearby. Our one and only breakfast here was superb. The only downside we can think of is that if fine dining is an important part of your travel experience, the town of Tropic doesn't offer much. Still, with the Stone Canyon Inn to lay your head down at night, who cares!
Stone Canyon and Bryce Canyon, both incredible
What a beautiful place... 10 miles from Bryce Canyon National Park, near Dixie National Forest, Escalante State Park, and Cedar Breaks, it was just lovely. The Inn has 6 rooms and my husband and I opted for the Cedar Room with huge double doors, a king size bed, a fouton for just sitting and relaxing and it's very own deck overlooking some of the most beautiful country I've ever seen in my life. The bathroom suite was huge with a small room with the toilet, a walk in closet, a huge 2 person jacuzzi and shower with windows looking out at the countryside so you can shower and see the sunrise or set while you shower. It was really lovely. A homemade breakfast was also included in the price. We stayed 2 nights in October and loved it. Since most places in Tropic closed early it was great to come back and sit on the deck a while or watch one of the many satellite TV channels available (yes there's something for everyone). The only reason not five is the matress felt a bit saggy and the shower, without an individual curtain, though refreshing was a little cold in October. Wish we had stayed longer. Would go back in a heartbeat. Thanks to the owner Dixie and her staff for a truly magnificent experience.
Tropic Delight
Kudos to the Stone Canyon Inn. Thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay. Rooms were clean and comfortable; bath area was spa-like; breakfast delicious. And the views...sunrise from our room, sunset off the deck. Wow!
Wonderful place to stay and worth the price
My husband and I recently stayed at the Stone Canyon Inn for 3 nights, and it was a great experience. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. They were able to recommend activities to do, and gave us a map with very detailed directions to get to the hikes they recommended. The breakfasts were incredibly tasty and provided a great time to talk with the other guests. Our room was huge and well-maintained, with a very comfortable bed and great view of the sunrise. The location of the Inn was great for exploring both Bryce Canyon and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. I would highly recommend staying at the Stone Canyon Inn. If we are ever in the area again we definately stay there.
Fantastic Accomadation and Fantastic Hosts
I can highly recommend staying in one of the cabins; they are tastefully furnished to a very high standard and are fully equipped. The Loge looked wonderful as well
Dixie and her family make you feel most welcome; the cabins are suitable for Honeymooners and families. We spent a few nights star gazing from the Jacuzzi on the outside deck. The location is ideal for Bryce Canyon
Great setting
In Tropic but on a piece of property that seperates it from town and any neighbors so it feels more remote and private. Great views- better than what you would get from inside or closer to Bryce. The deck is great for star gazing. Rooms are modern and very well furnished. Reminded me of staying in an expensive condo in Aspen. Hosts are genial. Breakfast, sinful.

Full Day at Bryce, 80 percent chance of rain
We woke up and got out fairly early as flash flood warnings were threatening. We of course picked yet another strenuous hike. This time we would go down Bryce point and then make our way through peek a boo loop back up to the top on Navajo trail.

... made his day. Bryce has a different feel altogether and all the good rock formations (hoodoos and spires) were concentrated in a small area between the 'Sunrise' and 'Sunset' points (our hikes encompassed both), so although the Rim drive stretches for 18 miles, the best section is the first 5 miles.

Then we went through a slit in the rocks when the trail turned sharply to the right. We were really up in the air and it looked like the trail ended! We did have a lot of going up and going down on this trail, but it was a good way to see this part of the park. I cooked dinner tonight for the first time here. It was a bit cool, but not ...

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
12 Jan 2012 19:38 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Canada, Iran, Israel
Jasmin Ramsey is an Iranian-born journalist.
Vancouver, Canada - Here's how it goes. On Tuesday morning, the Washington Post published an article, now revised, titled "Goal of Iran sanctions is regime collapse, US official says". Regime collapse would inevitably lead to "regime change", something that the Obama administration has publicly rejected for its Iran policy.
Thus the article quickly became a talking point amongst analysts and media professionals from all over the political spectrum on mailing lists and in the Twittersphere. Many on Twitter noted that the ramifications of working to implement regime change are potentially disastrous.
The Atlantic's pro-Israel journalist and pundit Jeffrey Goldberg tweeted that: "If I were an Iranian leader and read that the goal of sanctions is regime change, I'd race to build and test a nuke". Yahoo's foreign
Thus the article quickly became a talking point amongst analysts and media professionals from all over the political spectrum on mailing lists and in the Twittersphere. Many on Twitter noted that the ramifications of working to implement regime change are potentially disastrous.
The Atlantic's pro-Israel journalist and pundit Jeffrey Goldberg tweeted that: "If I were an Iranian leader and read that the goal of sanctions is regime change, I'd race to build and test a nuke". Yahoo's foreign policy reporter Laura Rozen wondered whether this would "validate Iran regime paranoia about US?" and from Tehran the Washington Post's Thomas Erdbrink noted that the "US remarks will confirm hardliners obsession with regime change - now confirmed - and strike out against dissidents & dig in deeper".
Then, right before many people's eyes, the headline of the article changed two times in the evening, along with the removal of the first two paragraphs and other revisions in the final version. This was the sequence of the headlines:
Headline #1: Goal of Iran sanctions is regime collapse, US official says
Headline #2: Goal of Iran sanctions is to get nation to abandon alleged nuclear programme, US official says
Headline #3: Public ire one goal of Iran sanctions, US official says
The final version includes the following notice at the top:
An earlier version of this article incorrectly reported that a US intelligence official had described regime collapse as a goal of US and other sanctions against Iran. An updated version clarifies the official's remarks.
An earlier version of this article incorrectly reported that a US intelligence official had described regime collapse as a goal of US and other sanctions against Iran. An updated version clarifies the official's remarks.
The fuss over the article revolves around this passage from the original version (now completely removed):
The goal of US and other sanctions against Iran is regime collapse, a senior US intelligence official said, offering the clearest indication yet that the Obama administration is at least as intent on unseating Iran's government as it is on engaging with it.
The official, speaking this week on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters, said the administration hopes that sanctions "create enough hate and discontent at the street level" that Iranians will turn against their government.
That passage was essentially replaced with the following in the final version:
The Obama administration sees economic sanctions against Iran as building public discontent that will help compel the government to abandon an alleged nuclear weapons programme, according to a senior US intelligence official.
In addition to influencing Iranian leaders directly, the official said, "another option here is that [sanctions] will create hate and discontent at the street level so that the Iranian leaders realise that they need to change their ways".
As Foreign Policy's Blake Hounshell pointed out, there was no direct quote about "regime collapse" in the original version. Rather, an anonymous senior US intelligence official told reporters Karen DeYoung and Scott Wilson that the administration hoped sanctions would "create enough hate and discontent at the street level". The second part of that statement, "to get Iranians to turn against their government", was not a direct quote.
Importantly, further on in the original version, an anonymous administration official contradicted that assertion with this passage:
A senior administration official, speaking separately, acknowledged that public discontent was a likely result of more punitive sanctions against Iran's already faltering economy. But this official said it was not the administration's intent to press the Iranian people toward an attempt to oust their government.
"The notion that we've crossed into sanctions being about regime collapse is incorrect," the administration official said. "We still very much have a policy that is rooted in the notion that you need to supply sufficient pressure to compel [the government] to change behaviour as it's related to their nuclear programme."
"We still very much have a policy that is rooted in the notion that you need to supply sufficient pressure to compel [the government] to change behaviour as it's related to their nuclear programme."
- Anonymous US official
But the Washington Post included "regime collapse" in their headline anyway. Hounshell wrote that he suspected that the unnamed intelligence official "may have misspoken, or been somehow misinterpreted". That may have been the case, but there are other possibilities and the effects will likely be far-reaching regardless.
Jamal Abdi, policy director of the National Iranian American Council, tweeted after the final headline change that with anonymous sourcing "one person can shift the entire policy (or at least perception of that policy)". Furthermore, even if intelligence officials do not determine policy, they can certainly influence it.
During a phone conversation he told me that the "cat is now out of the bag" about the aim of some administration members who want to steer Obama's Iran policy. Abdi said that this event, coupled with spokeperson Victoria Nuland's declaration last week that the US' latest sanctions against Iran "will be an important next step in the global effort to tighten the noose on their regime", suggests two schools of thought exist in the Obama administration:
The policy laid out by the president when he took office, which officially remains the administration's policy, is aimed at achieving a diplomatic resolution with Iran based on shared interests. But a second school of thought persists, largely a continuation of the Bush Administration policy, that the US can only deal with a different regime in Iran.
He also noted that public revelations which make it appear like some in the administration view regime change as the objective of the sanctions "puts the president in a box", making it "far more difficult now to convince Tehran to come to the table" and effectively "kneecapping the diplomatic option just weeks before expected talks".
Losing sight
Former intelligence official Paul Pillar reflected on the counter-productive path of Obama's Iran policy in December when he noted that the US "has made it almost impossible for Iran to say yes to whatever it is the United States is supposedly demanding of Iran".
If the intent is to bring Iran to the negotiating table to change its nuclear ambitions, there should be an understanding that the pressure will be lifted if Iran concedes to US demands. But "[w]e seem to have lost sight of what all those sanctions and pressure were supposed to achieve in the first place", wrote Pillar. "They have come to be treated as if they were ends in themselves."
News of a second US rescue of Iranian sailors this week (the first of which was publicly welcomed by Iran) is a positive development amidst usually icy relations. Now we must wait and see how the Iranians will react when talk of "regime collapse" is in the air, intended or not, while more of their citizens are being assassinated.
Like every other government, Iran's ruling elite are interested in self-preservation and those that are bellicose are always looking for reasons to justify their hostility toward the US and its allies. The only thing that's almost certain now is that Iran's hardliners will feel emboldened by more punitive US measures and rhetoric as they work to consolidate power ahead of March's parliamentary elections.
Meanwhile, Iran's pro-democracy movement, not to mention the alleged Iranian-American "spy" Amir Hekmati, will likely bear the brunt of the Obama administration's slip-ups as they are scapegoated or used as playing cards to deflect attention from the worsening state of Iran's economy and its isolated position abroad.

LOOKING for: Recipe for sweet pickled red cabbage
I'm looking for a good recipe for sweet pickled red cabbage. It's a common dish in German restaurants and quite tasty. Need one that can be canned up. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Pickled Red Cabbage
1 firm head red cabbage(about 2 pounds)
1/4 cup coarse pickling salt
4 cups white vinegar
1 cup sugar
Shred cabbage with a sharp knife. Add salt, mix well. Cover and let stand 12 hours or overnight. Drain in colander and rinse well with cold water. Combine vinegar and sugar; bring to a boil. Add drained cabbage and bring back to the boil (cabbage will turn bright pink). Pack into hot steralized jars and seal.
Yield about 4 pints.
This looks good! I think you would want to boiling water bath this to be sure you get a good seal. And another recipe called for topping off the jar with vinegar if there is not enough of the cooking liquid to cover the cabbage in the jar.
A boiling water bath is enough boiling water to cover the top of the jars by one inch. A 20 minute boiling time in the jar was recommended by another recipe. Also, it is recommended that you open the jars for use no less than 3 weeks after canning for the best flavor.
Thanks for the replies. Yes, I would waterbath it. One recipe I found on the web only needed to be processed at 5 minutes for pints.
I tried the recipe in the Ball Book one time and it was awful, so wanted something better.
Oilpainter, your recipe is more like I was looking for. Thanks so much!
Yes minirose---I would only give them a hot water bath for 5 min.. 20 minutes would cook the cabbage and make it limp. You only want to seal the jars not cook the contents. Often I don't even water bath pickles. I meticuously wipe the jar tops with damp paper towel and always use new snap lids and if they pop and go concave the jar is sealed. In all the many years I've been canning I can count on one hand the number of jars that have spoiled and they are usually jars that are old.
I do raw pack tomatoes and hot water bath them for 35 minutes and the tomatoes boil and cook in it. My quarts of tomato juice with the contents cooked calls for 10 min.
