Rejuvenate your health with the right combination of vitamins and minerals
My Forward® Multi-Nutrient is an energizing vitamin and mineral complex that delivers peak levels of the essential nutrients you need for head-to-toe support. This includes a full spectrum of vitamins, as well as key minerals in highly absorbable forms. You get:
An essential mineral combination that can fire up your energy levels
Maybe you're tired and just don't have the stamina to do the activities you once enjoyed. As you age, your heart, brain, and muscles are forced to deplete valuable energy by fighting a growing attack of free radicals. As energy reserves get depleted, you're left running on empty. A key component of my Forward Multi-Nutrient is the combination of potassium and magnesium. True, in most formulas, these are routine minerals. But the secret to supercharging your natural energy reserves is to use them in their aspartate form and take them together in the proper ratio. My Forward Multi-Nutrient also includes chromium and manganese, two minerals that help you metabolize glucose—your body's primary source of energy.
High potency B vitamins to undo years of stress and tension
The B vitamins have a well-deserved reputation as "anti-stress" nutrients. But when you're under constant pressure, your B vitamins can quickly get depleted. This is especially true of pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), which plays an important role in supporting your adrenal glands, where your "fight or flight" hormones are regulated. B vitamins are also important for anyone dealing with, or at risk for, diabetes, as they are particularly susceptible to depletion.
Vitamin C plus bioflavonoids for advanced body repair power
Without a strong immune system, the health of your entire body is at risk. The state of your immune system can make the difference between doing all the things you love each day and wasting your time on the sidelines. Vitamin C is my all-time favorite immune booster, but most people don't get nearly enough of this vitamin each day. To fight off physical degeneration and boost your immune system, you need at least 1,000 mg of ascorbic acid vitamin C. And about half of that should be in the buffered form to protect you from stomach upset. Forward Multi-Nutrient gives you both buffered C and ascorbic acid in three times the amount of ordinary multivitamin brands. Plus, vitamin C is backed with 150 mg of powerful bioflavonoids, including quercetin, hesperidin, and rutin. This potent combination enhances the absorption of vitamin C so you'll get even more antioxidant power, immune system support, collagen-building ability, and nourishment for healthy veins and capillaries.
The best bone-building minerals in the right form and ratio
I recommend a specific blend of calcium in order to get true bone nourishment. Forward Multi-Nutrient includes carbonate and ascorbate. I also advise you to take a 2-to-1 ratio of calcium to magnesium, plus chelate forms of zinc, copper, and manganese for optimal calcium absorption. Forward Multi-Nutrient has all of these, in addition to silica and peak levels of vitamin D that you won't find in other multis or in calcium-enriched foods.
Targeted, age-defying nutrients to revive hair, skin, nails, and more
There are a select group of nutrients that can help revitalize virtually every cell in your body. The first of these is PABA, a member of the B vitamin family. It's a versatile and powerful antioxidant, but it's rarely found in ordinary multi-nutrients. For anyone over age 50, I strongly recommend 50 mg of PABA a day to help hair stay strong and youthful, to keep your skin soft and supple, and to support the production of healthy red blood cells. You also get biotin, a vitamin that helps produce fatty acids that are necessary for healthy, shiny hair and strong nails. And you'll get 10 times more of this important "beauty" nutrient than you'd get in the top three multivitamins. Plus, you get silica, a mineral that's been shown in studies to help dull, colorless hair, sallow skin, and brittle nails come back to life. Other top multi brands don't even bother with this nutrient.
Why Forward Multi-Nutrient is better:
- Provides an advanced B-complex for greater energy, including peak levels of folic acid for homocysteine support
- You get powerful, natural (non-synthetic) forms of vitamin E, with mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols, for outstanding support for your heart, cells, and circulation
- Includes full-spectrum vitamin A, with beta carotene and mixed cartotenoids, to fortify your vision, bones, and cells
- Provides vitamin C plus bioflavonoids for advanced body repair
- Includes 50 percent more vitamin D than typical multivitamins—a key vitamin now shown to be more important than ever for immune health, bone health and more
- Nourishes your brain with "smart" nutrients such as choline, inositol, and folic acid
- Includes targeted age-defying nutrients to revive hair, skin, nails, and more
- Fires up your energy levels with potassium, magnesium, chromium, and manganese
- Doctor-developed, cutting-edge formula means you benefit from the latest research and Dr. Whitaker's real patient experience during nearly 30 years at the Whitaker Wellness Institute
- Superior quality, potency, and purity guaranteed on every batch—dozens of quality and safety checks, including independent laboratory testing, are performed from the very beginning to the final product.

Boston victims face huge bills; donations pour in
Monday - 4/29/2013, 5:50pm EDT
AP Medical Writer
Cost of amputating a leg? At least $20,000. Cost of an artificial leg? More than $50,000 for the most high-tech models. Cost of an amputee's rehab? Often tens of thousands of dollars more.
These are just a fraction of the medical expenses victims of the Boston Marathon bombing will face.
The mammoth price tag is probably not what patients are focusing on as they begin the long healing process. But friends and strangers are already setting up fundraisers and online crowd-funding sites, and a huge Boston city fund has already collected more than $23 million in individual and corporate donations.
No one knows yet if those donations -- plus health insurance, hospital charity funds and other sources -- will be enough to cover the bills. Few will even hazard a guess as to what the total medical bill will be for a tragedy that killed three people and wounded more than 260. At least 15 people lost limbs, and other wounds include head injuries and tissue torn apart by shrapnel.
Health insurance, as practically anyone who has ever gotten hurt or sick knows, does not always cover all costs. In the case of artificial limbs, for example, some insurance companies pay for a basic model but not a computerized one with sophisticated, lifelike joints.
Rose Bissonnette, founder of the New England Amputee Association, said that the moment she heard about the bombings, she knew immediately that her organization's services would be needed. The advocacy group helps amputees navigate things such as insurance coverage for artificial limbs.
Bissonnette shared one group member's struggle to get coverage for artificial arms as an example of the red tape some bombing victims could face. The woman "got a call from the insurance company and the person on the other end said, 'How long are you going to need the prosthetic hands?'" Bissonnette recalled.
Bissonnette herself was in a horrific car crash 16 years ago that left her with injuries similar to those facing the Boston victims. Her mangled lower left leg had to be amputated and her right ankle was partially severed. Her five-month hospital stay cost more than $250,000. Health insurance covered all her treatment, rehab and her prosthesis.
Health economist Ted Miller noted that treating just one traumatic brain injury can cost millions of dollars, and at least one survivor has that kind of injury. He also pointed out that the medical costs will include treating anxiety and post-traumatic stress -- "an issue for a whole lot more people than just people who suffered physical injuries," he said.
Adding to the tragedy's toll will be lost wages for those unable to work, including two Massachusetts brothers who each lost a leg, Miller said. They had been roofers but may have to find a new line of work.
Many survivors will also need help with expenses beyond immediate health care, including things like modifying cars for those who lost limbs or remodeling homes to accommodate wheelchairs.
Many survivors live in Massachusetts, a state that requires residents to have health insurance, "which should cover most of their required treatment," said Amie Breton, spokeswoman for Massachusetts' consumer affairs office. "The total cost of that treatment is impossible to calculate at this early stage."
Amputees may face the steepest costs, and artificial legs are the costliest. They range from about $7,200 for a basic below-the-knee model to as much as $90,000 for a high-tech microprocessor-controlled full leg, said Dr. Terrence Sheehan, chief medical officer for Adventist Rehabilitation Hospital in Rockville, Md., and medical director of the Amputee Coalition, a national advocacy group.
Legs need to be replaced every few years, or more often for very active users or those who gain or lose weight. Limb sockets need to be replaced even more often and also cost thousands of dollars each, Sheehan said.
Massachusetts is among about 20 states that require health insurers to pay for prosthetic limbs, but many plans don't cover 100 percent of those costs, Sheehan said. "Most are skimpy beyond basic prosthetics and they have not caught up with current available technology," he said.
"The insurer will use terminology such as 'not medically necessary'" to deny computerized feet or knees that can often make the patient better able to function and more comfortable and safe, Sheehan said.
Some insurers may be willing to make exceptions for the Boston blast survivors.
"We will work to ensure that financial issues/hardship will not pose a barrier to the care that affected members' need," said Sharon Torgerson, spokeswoman for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Massachusetts, one of the state's largest health insurers.

Oscar Pistorius indicted on murder charge
Oscar Pistorius has been indicted on charges of murder and illegal possession of ammunition for the shooting death of the double-amputee Olympian's girlfriend on Valentine's Day.
A Pretoria court on Monday set March 3 as the trial date for Pistorius, who says he shot Reeva Steenkamp by mistake, believing she was an intruder in his home. Prosecutors say he killed her after an argument. The prosecution submitted a list of more than 100 witnesses.
Pistorius was in court for the indictment, and was seen crying and holding hands with his siblings before proceedings started.
He faces a life sentence with a minimum of 25 years in prison if convicted of premeditated murder.

The Spotted Marsh Frog, Limnodynastes tasmaniensis, is a light brown to olive green frog with a series of fairly regular blotched green patches along its back. In the Melbourne area, most Spotted Marsh Frogs have a vertebral stipe that is sometimes reddish in colour. They grow to a maximum length of around 50 mm.
Spotted Marsh FrogPhotographer: Peter Robertson / Source: Wildlife Profiles Pty. Ltd.
This is a widespread species found throughout most areas of Melbourne. It usually shelters under logs and stones on the edge of swamps, ponds and lagoons.
The diet consists mainly of invertebrates. Eggs are laid in floating foam masses on still waters and hatch after a few days. Tadpoles grow to a maximum length of 60 mm and take up to 5 months to develop into frogs.

Hi Maite, the Water Dragons will most likely make short work of the frogs when they wake up, so adding the frogs to the dragon enclosure is not a good idea. Also, if they've been reared indoors under warmer conditions they will be more advanced than frogs reared outdoors, and may not be able to cope with the outdoor climate at this time of year. It would be worth waiting a few more weeks until the outside temperature is more consistently above 20 degrees.
Hi Jasmine,
Thank you for your question, you were correct in asking for help and not releasing the tadpoles! All frogs, tadpoles, and spawn are protected in Victoria, but some species can be kept under licence. The collection of frogs from the wild or the release of frogs to the wild is prohibited. The release of frogs to your backyard or the raising of tadpoles for the purpose of release is also illegal, and this is mainly to stop diseases potentially picked up in captivity from being spread to wild populations.
The Licensing Unit of the Department of Environment and Primary Industries is responsible for the Victorian regulations, if you require more information. The only option open to you is give the tadpoles away to a pet shop. Many pet shops are licensed to trade in frogs and most of these will welcome new stocks of tadpoles, particularly if they are offered for free.
Good luck finding them a new home!
Hi India - here is some information for you from our Live Exhibits staff.
The easiest way to sex Spotted Marsh Frogs (Limnodynastes tasmaniensis) is that the males call audibly. During the breeding season males also have dark-brown nuptial pads on the fingers to aid during amplexis (mating).
When the frogs are still young, both sexes may have white under the chin but males later develop a dark olive patch under the chin. If the frogs were bought as tadpoles six years ago they will all be well and truly mature by now.
This species is particularly variable in colour and pattern, and yellow spots under the legs are nothing to be concerned about.
Hi Denise, it's hard to say what the reasons might be without knowing more about your set-up and what conditions may have changed recently. She may be responding to a change in environmental conditions that may even be too subtle for you to notice. However, as a general rule any change in an animal's behaviour can mean something is wrong with the animal, so if you're concerned at all the best option is to take your frog to a vet.
Hi Julie - we ran this question past our Live Exhibits team here, and they have provided the following response:
The eggs will get sucked up by the filter unless you take steps to protect them. Some breeders move the eggs to a new tank to keep them separate from the adult frogs and from feed crickets, but eggs often don't do well after moving so it's generally safer to leave them where they are. You can cover the filter inlet with mesh, or for a more complicated setup you can build a mesh box around it to ensure a constant flow of water.
Once the eggs hatch, the tadpoles should be separated from the adults if you want as many of them to mature as possible.
We hope this helps!
Hi Julie, crickets, cockroaches and mealworms are the standard food for frogs in captivity, but any insects of a suitable size will do. Worms, maggots and waxworms may also be available from pet shops, and it also helps to collect insects from the wild if they're available. The more variety the better.
Because most people get their insects from pet shops and because there often isn't a great variety, calcium dusting has become standard to make up for any potential dietary deficiency. The frogs may well survive without it, but it's an added insurance for healthy frogs.
Hi Leanne, as far as we know spotted marsh frogs don't require a licence but taking them out of the wild is illegal. So the best thing to do is put it back where you found it or in the safest water body nearby. If you have it in captivity legally, ie you bought it from a supplier, then you need to aerate the water with a water stone or pump and change it completely every week if it is a small body of water or every second week if it's a medium amount of volume. You need to feed it pinhead crickets with calcium and reptile/amphibian vitamin powder dusted over the crickets. It also will require a UV light that is attached above the tank and on for maybe 4-5 hours a day. Provide shade for it during this time in case it needs to escape the light or they can burn.
Change the water only with rainwater or with tap water that has sat in a bowl for 20 hours. This allows the chlorine to evaporate. Don't forget the calcium and vitamin powder on the crickets, its really important or they get brittle bones.
Hi Lucy, this question was referred to our resident frog expert in our Live Exhibits staff here at Melbourne Museum, who has the following reply for your query:
An accurate response to your questions would require more information, such as - How old/big are the frogs? Are they kept together? Enclosure size and set-up? It is common when you start with any group of animals that some will do better than others. One will be outcompeted by the others and will quickly fall behind. As the others grow, they are stronger and can further outcompete the straggler causing him to fall further behind. Separating the straggler and intensively target feeding him is probably the best thing. Usually when they catch up to the others they can be re-introduced.If it is a recent metamorph it may just not be meant to survive. Even in the best set-ups with the utmost care there can be a certain amount of mortality when raising frogs. This is one reason they produce such large numbers of young. Spotted marsh usually do fine at normal room temps. Without more info on the husbandry conditions all i can suggest is maintain all the usual things such as clean enclosure, fresh water and good food. The crickets should be dusted every second feed or so with a good quality calcium and vitamin supplement such as Repcal and Herptivite.
All this is assuming it is not something more sinister such as a disease or infection. As with all animals if unsure, a visit to the vet may be the best option.
Hi Lucy - we checked with one of our keepers on this, and they have said the following:

Hi Gabi, There are some frog friendly species of fish, but only to a limited extent. The best three species would be Murray River Rainbows, Whiteclouds or Zebra Danios.
If it's a large frog, it's probably not had trouble eating, unless it has a water retention issue or some other condition. The most important thing is to offer it the right kind of food, and then it's health should be fine.
Hi Ashley, the vertebral stripe is a common morphological variation in this species and is unrelated to sex. Determining sex in this species is a little tricky, males may have a dark yellowy-green throat patch. Also, if they are calling, you can hear the call here on the Museum Victoria website, then it is definitely a male. If it is breeding season, males will also have dark-brown nuptial pads on fingers.
Hi Gabriele,
As it says above, a good place is under logs and stones on the edge of swamps, ponds and lagoons. Hope this helps!
Hi there, Millie. According to the "Field Guide to Australian Frogs," the larval life of this species is 3-5 months. Hope this helps!
Hi Gabby - Spotted Marsh Frogs may have trouble getting back out of the water in the situation you have described as they do not have enlarged toe pads like the tree frogs, and therefore cannot climb well (pardon the pun). In this case a ramp or some other object that gives them easier option to leave the water would be a good idea.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.

Greetings Phoronix-team!
Do you plan to extend that benchmark-testing to other hardware-setups and/or other distributions?

Phoronix: Ubuntu 7.04 to 8.10 Benchmarks: Is Ubuntu Getting Slower?
With the release of Ubuntu 8.10 coming out later this week we decided to use this opportunity to explore how the performance of this desktop Linux operating system has evolved over the past few releases. We performed clean installations of Ubuntu 7.04, Ubuntu 7.10, Ubuntu 8.04, and Ubuntu 8.10 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T60 notebook and used the Phoronix Test Suite to run 35 tests on each release that covered nine different areas of the system. After spending well more than 100 hours running these tests, the results are now available and our findings may very well surprise you.

Hi MacSlow,
Yeah there's plans to at least run the same set of tests on Fedora on the T60. Possibly other distros too depending upon time and what the results are from Fedora. Other hardware setups too are planned. Ideally the Fedora results would be out by week's end.
I believe that canonical have a large set of machines that run automated tests of development releases. Maybe you could talk them into including performance tests.
The sooner the regressions are spotted, the easier to find which change caused them. The dramatic change in RAM speed must surely be some kernel bug.
Have you tried 64 bit tests? A lot of the optimisation in GCC is not enabled in 32bit ubuntu to keep compatibility with i586.
Cool work on these tests.
It looks like these might be kernel regressions. You can try the kernels from the older distros on the newer ones to check if that's the case.
Also, trying out the 64-bit distros helps. As ssam noted, the kernels and packages are not compiled with several optimizations enabled. Also, most of the newer distros will be installed on newer hardware, which means it's 64-bit capable. There's really no reason to run 32-bit distros these days.
Interesting results.
Phoroix should also do a similar tests on some server(http, db, file etc) versions (both between releases and distros if possible). There will be lot of interest regarding this aspect.
And ofcourse, great work. These are the reviews which we actually need.
that is no problem of canonical...it's a problem that affects the kernels...since 2.24 the kernels are getting slower and slower...I've heared that from sidux users, from fedora users and from Debian users...they are all saying the same: since 2.24 they are loosing frames in first-person-shooter like ET:QW and UT2k4
so, maybe someone should talk to the kernel hackers and say them, that a sleep function after each function is NOT necessary...
It might be possible to locate these regressions by running a newer backported kernel on ubuntu 7.04 (or possibly run the older 2.6.20 kernel with 8.10).
This could isolate the issue to the kernel, or otherwise to another component, such as GCC. From there, it should be possible to further bisect the kernel to find the source of these performance regressions.
Keep up the excellent work!
Eh, it didn't look like such a huge loss to me overall :-/
The cause for the bad performance is the CFS (Completly Fair Scheduler), I think. It's standard since 2.6.23/24.
World of Warcraft on Wine lags terrible and freezes every some seconds since the introducing of CFS.
I hope OpenSolaris supports my hardware completly soon, so that I can change to this OS.

ALBANY - The $137 billion state budget that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo proposed today would increase spending about 2 percent without tax increases, but New Yorkers would feel some fee hikes.
Cuomo's budget proposal to the Legislature provides 4.4 percent more aid to schools and would fund his proposal to improve instruction, including longer school days and school years. State aid to municipalities outside New York City wouldn't increase at a time when many counties and smaller local governments worry about insolvency amid rising costs and shrinking tax bases.
The budget doesn't include another $6.1 billion that is expected from the federal government for relief from Superstorm Sandy. That would have pushed the total budget to more than $143 billion.

Cuomo proposes to suspend the driver's licenses of people with big, overdue tax bills. He also would make it harder to plea down some speeding charges to avoid bigger fines and insurance premium hikes - a process he says costs $58 million a year and makes roads unsafe. His measures, however, would include Saturday hours at some Department of Motor Vehicles offices.
The bulk of his new proposals focus on upstate jobs programs and tourism. The budget proposal that details his revenue and spending plan, however, doesn't include mention of the potentially lucrative drilling for natural gas using the contentious process of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. Cuomo has said he won't indicate if he will support the process that is opposed by environmentalists until a state health study is completed.
"He's funded a number of initiatives in a pretty responsible framework, and spending isn't going up by too much," said Elizabeth Lynam of the independent Citizens Budget Commission.
She said several small fees will touch New Yorkers, including the extension of a utility surcharge paid by ratepayers. The budget also extends a kind of tax on high-income New Yorkers by limiting deductions to charities.
In the budget, Cuomo is putting dollar commitments to the proposals in his Jan. 9 State of the State speech, which was filled with progressive and often costly ideas. After the state passed tough new gun control laws last week, there were questions about how to pay for them. Cuomo proposed $35.9 million to implement key components including registration of assault weapons, re-registering of pistol permits, new databases to keep track of guns, and defensive and safety measures at schools, including at entrances.
The budget he proposed today will go to the Legislature where a series of hearings will be held. Cuomo and legislative leaders then traditionally meet behind closed doors to negotiate a final plan by the April 1 start of the fiscal year.
New York's budget is watched closely nationwide because of its early fiscal year and because it often identifies trends in other states' budget proposals that come out over the next several months.
Cuomo and economic forecasters had expected fiscal times to be better by now after his first two budgets that had to contend with deficits totaling more than $10 billion because of drastically reduced tax revenue during the recession. This year's projected deficit of $1.35 billion is an improvement, but state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli warns that tax collections continue to remain below the state's latest estimates.
"Tax collections are still not growing at the rate needed to meet year-end projections, and the boost in personal income taxes in December likely won't continue," DiNapoli said.
Cuomo's budget addresses the deficit through a variety of cost-cutting measures and some revenue initiatives.
"So far the budget has been balanced by spending less and taking advantage of one-time windfalls," DiNapoli said. "With the budget process about to begin again, revenue projections should be realistic so that the budget is not balanced with revenues that won't be there."
DiNapoli said the Cuomo administration in November estimated tax growth at 2.9 percent, but it has come in at 1.2 percent. That would mean tax receipts would have to be an unlikely 7.1 percent in the last three months of the fiscal year to meet projections. He said sales tax receipts have also been flat so far this fiscal year.

There are good reasons why Cape Wind has struggled to get off the ground for the past 13 years. Not only is the project outdated, but its location in the heart of Nantucket Sound has now been determined to pose significant risks to a variety of endangered and threatened species. These environmental impacts are the basis of a recent federal court decision that sent both the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service back to the drawing board to conduct more scientific reviews.
But Cape Wind's impacts extend far beyond the environment. The controversial project would also jeopardize public safety, put fishermen's livelihoods at risk and desecrate sacred tribal lands. As a result of these impacts and the choice of a highly conflicted location, Cape Wind continues to face litigation and opposition.
Likely the single biggest reason Cape Wind is no closer to being built today than it was 13 years ago is simple economics: its cost is exorbitantly high. Any electricity Cape Wind would produce is guaranteed to be some of the most expensive in New England and the nation.
Cape Wind's contracted electricity prices start at roughly 20 cents per kilowatt hour (kwh) and would increase by 3.5 percent each year to reach an exorbitant 34 cents per kwh in the final contract year. To put these numbers in perspective: Cape Wind would cost $3 billion more than electricity bought at market rates. It would also be more than three times as expensive as competing land-based wind projects that sell electricity at a flat 8 cents per kwh — with no annual increase. Cape Wind's high rates would burden families, businesses and communities all throughout the commonwealth.
Leading business groups in Massachusetts — organizations that clearly support renewable energy — have sounded the alarm about the high cost of Cape Wind. Groups such as the Associated Industries of Massachusetts and the Massachusetts Competitive Partnership have warned that the state's energy costs, already far higher than most other states, would become even less competitive. Cape Wind's billions of dollars in added costs would make a difference on where businesses choose to locate and expand.
While Massachusetts businesses and residents would get saddled with the bills, the Commonwealth wouldn't have any new jobs to show for it. Middleboro's Mass Tank worked tirelessly for two years meeting milestones for Cape Wind after being promised the job to manufacture its turbine foundations. The result? Cape Wind spurned Mass Tank in favor of a European competitor in Germany.
The National Electrical Contractors Association of Greater Boston has a similar story. After years of touting the economic benefits of the project for the commonwealth, Cape Wind signed a contract with a Maine-based company for an electrical service platform — breaking another promise and leaving thousands of Massachusetts electricians and contactors out in the cold.
Page 2 of 2 - At the end of last year, in an attempt to qualify for $800 million of expiring tax credits, Cape Wind signed a contract with Siemens to manufacture its turbines in Denmark — meaning the outsourcing of even more jobs.
Cape Wind's long-time struggle to secure financing — even with overpriced power contracts in hand — is another strong indicator of just how much of a financial boondoggle the project is. For years the developer has asked the Department of Energy for help by having U.S. taxpayers guarantee its loans. In 2011, Cape Wind was denied a $2 billion loan guarantee from DOE — an amount nearly four times that lost on the now bankrupt Solyndra. Today, Cape Wind continues to seek hundreds of millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars from the same agency under a different loan program. And while promises of Danish employment may have helped Cape Wind attract conditional foreign investments from groups like EKF, Denmark's export credit agency, Cape Wind has yet to receive financing from a single U.S. entity.
Massachusetts is a hub for energy innovation. With all of this talent and creativity, the commonwealth could do so much better than be saddled by an industrial relic with high costs and few benefits. After 13 years, it's becoming increasingly clear that Cape Wind shouldn't be built and it won't be.

Maintain your fence this fall
Published On: Oct 31 2012 11:36:59 AM EDT
Updated On: Nov 14 2012 12:28:30 PM EST
Make sure you are maintaining your fence this autumn.
During the fall, leaves tend to pile up near fences. These leaves need to be removed from around the fence before the colors of the leaves stain your fence.
Also, remove any dead plants from your garden are along your yard's border that may be touching your fence. These plants can scratch or stain your fence.
To prevent stains on vinyl or glasses fences, an oxygenated bleach can stop leaves and plants from staining your fence.

On this episode of Chat with the Experts, we talk with Ralph Ford of Deckmasters about choosing a new deck for your home and what options are available.
Keep your home clean inside and out by hiring a pro to pressure wash your home's siding and get your deck ready for spring.
Ready to tackle some deck maintenance? There are a lot of terms to understand, from joists to ledger boards. Here is a glossary of deck terms you should know.
Angie's Answers
That being said, a legitimate contractor still has operating cost which vary by area and how they run their business. I break even at $150/day not including labor and materials so I've got to charge more than that to make money. To keep the math simple, if I'm paying $250 for a pne day job in labor plus another $300 in materials and $150 operating costs I've got to charge $700 to the customer to break even. That's if I'm only doing one job a day which is why most of us manage several at a time. The point I'm trying to make is that someone with the necessary knowledge and experience to build you a safe deck is not going to be cheap. Knowledge accompanies success which costs money.
I've repaired or restructured several decks built by handymen who should find another profession. Ask yourself this question when hiring someone for this project: Would I trust this person to build my house? If the answer is no you need to find someone else. The deck is just as important. It's where your family, friends, kids are going to gather and interact. If it isn't structurally sound it can collapse causing injury or even death. One last word on decks: Always screw a deck together, don't nail it.

I agree with Jim Casper - after about 50 years of dealing with weathered wood finishing both in my homes and in the construction business, it comes down to about 90% preparation, 10% the finishing. If you do not prep the wood right, any moisture, mold, etc in the wood will destroy whatever you put over it.
High-build finishes like paint and epoxies and, from reading the Rustoleum flyer on this new product that too, work by trying to make an impenetrable surface and depend on a very good bond with the surface, AND no water getting under them. Because they are thick and are designed to provide a waterproof surface, unfortunately where water gets under them they are just as good or better at keeping it from evaporating, so you get fungal growth, blistering, and peeling.
Unfortunately, on deck and most outdoor applications except siding the surface will get nicked, scratched and otherwise develop leaks in short order. Water will therefore get into the underlying wood, and because it entered through small cracks and scratches, does not have any airflow to make it evaporate, so it sits there and breaks the finish bond to the wood (causing peeling and blisters), and promotes decay. That is why new deck boards and siding and trim that have been heavily or multi-coat painted on all 4 sides, thinking that will give the best protection, only last a few years versus the usual 10-20 years or so for boards that are painted top and sides only.
The full sun and hot conditions will, of course, cause more thann normal heating of dark colored painted decking. I had one instance where I was doing an independent appraisal of a very large commercial deck at a government facility, and in 85-90 degree daytime temps, in the sushine the chocolate brown deck surface temp was 150 degrees, and the paint was softening so much it stuck to the bottom of your shoes a couple of months after application.
As Jim said, the studies pretty clearly show that a breathable penetrating stain gives the best life, after plain ACA/CCA (copper chromium variations - the green stuff) treated wood. Penetrating stains, properly applied, do NOT seal in the moisture, they inhibit its entry and (when dark colored) help protect against sun damage to the wood and finish, but still breathe enough to let moisture escape on dry days. For my money, I will only use petroleum distillate (paint thinner cleanup) products, as they penetrate into the wood much better. Water based ones immediately start swelling the wood pores, so it blocks further penetration of the stain, which while cleanup is a bit easier, totally defeats the purpose of a PENETRATING stain or sealer.
I would recommend against any sort of waterproofing sealer, as they trap the water just like paint, and I have never seen one that is effective for 2 years.
My personal preference, though it limits the architectural coloration possibilities, is ground-contact rated copper compound treated wood (NOT the Wolmanized brown product), which comes green initially but can be retreated with either green or brown solution or can be liquid colorized darker (though not easily to a specific tone) using either of those as a base. My practice is to redo the treatment before installation to ensure thorough treatment, as from the mill it commonly has skips where boards contacted each other or where stacking seperators laid on it, and the ends are commonly very poorly done. This is done after cutting to length, as cut ends have to be retreated anyway. A simple short deck cleaner soak followed by a light pressure washing and brush or roller re-treating of ONLY the TOP surface every 10 years or so has, for me, reduced visible weathering of the boards and beams to negligible.
Assuming you buy the right size door to fit the rough opening, and that your old door is not a size that is no longer made, and that you get the correct depth and transition adapters and sills and flashing and trim and seals and such, and that you transport it home without distorting and damaging it, then removal and disposal of old one and install new one probably about $250-400 depending on how well it fits, number of transition and similar pieces that have to be assembled (from 1 or 2 for some doors to as many as 30 on others).
The laundry list of things at the start WAS intended to intimidate you - I would say not 1 in 25 homeowners who buy a new patio door have bought it the right size for the rough opening and have everything needed to install it - the contractor almost invariably has to go get materials or parts to complete the installation - sometimes waiting weeks for factory adapters that are needed or missing parts AFTER the original door has already been taken out.
I would question why you are going to probably spend as much installing a door that may not do the job for you as the cost of the door. I would hazard at least half of people who go buy a $250-400 cheap door at a box store are sorely disappointed within months - due to poorly fitted parts, bad or non-existent seals causing drafts or water leaks, fogging or breaking glass, etc.
I would recommend you assess your needs, in conjunction with your installer find a decent and reputable brand unit to fit that need and that fits the loction right, and probably pay 50% more installed but have something that you might actually be happy with. Oh - BTW - your best installers generally will not install the cheapest box store units because they do not want the callbacks, so many times the quality of the installer who will actually do the job for you at a price you are willing to pay gives you a job that is - you guessed it, worth what you paid for it.
The product has evolved considerably since the lawsuit.
I would still do your own research and give you contractor your feedback. At the end of the day, the cost for whatever board you want will be similar.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid, shown during the first half of an NFL football game against the New York Giants Sunday, Dec. 30, 2012 in East Rutherford, N.J. , will interview for the Kansas City Chiefs job oN Wednesday. / Peter Morgan, AP
From a sure thing as Arizona Cardinals head coach to an interview with the Kansas City Chiefs before he even meets with the Cards. That's the way it's gone for Andy Reid in the past day.
The former Philadelphia Eagles' coach will meet with the Chiefs Wednesday in Philly, according to a person informed of the interview. The person, who spoke to USA TODAY Sports on condition of anonymity because the Chiefs haven't confirmed the meeting, said Reid will then fly to Arizona for his meeting with the Cards on Thursday.
It was reported by multiple outlets on Tuesday Reid was near an agreement with Arizona and would be introduced as the new coach by the end of the week. The Cardinals shot down that report, though they confirmed Reid is one of their candidates. ESPN, which was first to report Reid's meeting with the Chiefs, indicated there was a "95 percent" chance Reid would be the Cardinals next head coach but has since backed off of that report.
"I'm 99% sure that reports of a deal being 95% done are 100% incorrect," Cardinals VP of media relations Mark Dalton tweeted.
The Cardinals are also meeting again on Wednesday with current defensive coordinator Ray Horton, who had the first portion of his interview with management on Tuesday. As previously reported by USA TODAY Sports, Horton has interviewed with the Cleveland Browns, who are in Arizona to make a push for Oregon's Chip Kelly after his team plays in the Fiesta Bowl.

Auditory processing disorder is a condition where something is adversely affecting the way someone processes or interprets the information that comes from the sounds around them. It involves difficulties with listening, or with recognzing differences in the sounds within words. Advances in technology have enabled specialists to better explore and understand various types of difficulties involving hearing. If you suspect a listening or hearing problem, a comprehensive hearing test may be necessary. Ask your doctor or school about a referral to an audiologist. This could be part of a comprehensive evaluation for ADHD.

Military Records
Military records dating back more than 62 years are made publicly available under the Freedom of Information Act (though some information may still be kept private).
Historical Newspaper Archives
Historical newspaper articles are usually maintained by the individual publications that originally distributed the content. Newspaper articles are open for public access and can usually be obtained by following these steps.
Obituaries and Death Notices
Obituary records, which are newspaper announcements that discuss a person's life and death, can be helpful research tools for a genealogist. Should a death certificate not be accessible, obituary records can provide similar information, if not more. Information typically not discussed in death records, such as details about the person's life, family, career, and accomplishments, are outlined in obituary records. These can be accessed through library microfiches and online resources.
Immigration & Naturalization Records
As a land comprised of immigrants, America's immigration records can help a researcher find invaluable information about generations past. Starting in 1819, immigration records were kept for all individuals arriving on American soil. To find out more about an ancestor's family members, overseas birth place, and details surrounding their arrival in America, you can begin at the National Archives and Ellis Island's official records.
Census Records & City Directories
Starting in 1790, the US government has kept census records which can be an excellent tool in the genealogist's research box. While family information can be discerned from census records, a researcher can also create a socioeconomic image of each generation. While census records are only made available after 72 years, they are an excellent way to research the earlier generations of your family tree.
Cemetery Records
Genealogists seeking information about the life and death of their ancestors can find valuable information from cemetery records, especially if a death certificate is not available. In addition, cemetery records may provide greater insight into a person's life, including their religious belief, social class, family relationships, and community involvement. Online resources can provide information on cemetery records, but an in-person visit may be worthwhile for research endeavors.

Comments about Icebreaker Oasis Crewe (Women's):
I had never experienced merino wool base layer until early this past fall, and though initially skeptical of wearing wool to exercise or do anything besides itch, Icebreaker quickly changed my views. The smooth silky material glides on like a second skin, and consistently works with your body to keep your temperature regulated. I've used this piece as a base layer on snowboarding trips in frigid temperatures, for running when it is cool, and for working and lounging regularly. Two things about this shirt stand out as particularly impressive:
1) It really is EXTREMELY odor resistant and re-wearable. I was skeptical, being a runner who actually sweats a decent amount, but I have found that the material airs out extremely quickly and thoroughly allowing for multiple re-wearings without feeling smelly. I've ended many workouts and a couple days of snowboarding with a nearly dry shirt, due to its superior wicking power.
2) There is a very wide range of temperatures in which this 200 weight shirt is comfortable. It breathes so well that you can wear it when it's getting warmer without overheating, but it is also a good insulator at cooler temperatures. Even when its damp from precipitation or sweat (ex. on a run when it's cold and misty) it continues to insulate!
Altogether, this is an awesome piece and a very worthwhile investment. You won't want to take it off!

Historic Mansion Kitchen Gets Asian Makeover
Beverly Hills, CA— Much like the famous Hollywood sign, the private, 1928-era English Gothic-revival mansion known as the Greystone Estate subtly overlooks Los Angeles. Originally designed by renowned Southern California architect Gordon B. Kaufman and owned by the city, this historic 46,000-sq.-ft., 55-room home was recently renovated as part of the Garden and Design showcase by the Beverly Hills Historical Society and Friends of Greystone.
Judith Wilson of Studio City, CA-based Judith Wilson Interior Design Group and assistant designer Sara Weller were charged with giving the 1,000-sq.-ft. kitchen a Hollywood-style makeover worthy of the city's renowned glamour, but adding an Asian-inspired twist. That's because the inspiration for the design was to come from Michael Schulson, celebrity chef for Asian Cuisine in New York and host for Style Network. As a result, the design had to incorporate Asian-style design elements while facilitating cooking by a top chef.
Kitchen Quartet
According to Wilson, the kitchen is part of a four-room quartet that encompasses some 2,000 square feet. The first of the four rooms is a small vestibule area that has access to the dining room, the main hallway, the servants' quarters and the main kitchen itself. From the vestibule, there is access to the butler's pantry, the main cooking kitchen and the plant room (which also doubled as the baker's work area years ago).
For Wilson, the main challenge of the project was to keep the structure of the home the same, while incorporating the desired Asian nouveau design style.
"Designing for the Greystone showcase house is different from designing for a typical showcase house," says Wilson. "Since the mansion is a historical site, designers are not allowed to alter any of the main structure of the mansion, unless it is to restore specific areas back to their original state. We can't move walls or tear out flooring or old tile."
For that reason, among the biggest challenges for Wilson was keeping the integrity of 20th Century architecture intact while incorporating Asian antiques and the ancient art of Feng Shui into the kitchen to create a more contemporary feeling.
Using a Zen approach to the design, the pair created the eclectic design theme for the kitchen by incorporating antiques from various Asian countries, spanning as far back as the 17th and 18th centuries.
Wilson continued this theme with a custom-designed aquarium in the dining area showcasing a golden Buddha statue and baby Koi fish, framed by window treatments that add striking daylighting effects.
All about Cooking
The main kitchen area was originally designed to be all about cooking, Wilson notes, since it was created for a prominent family that had an on-call chef with assistants available at all hours.
This continued to be the case with the celebrity chef-inspired remodel. To that end, both the appliances and the prep space were critical. However, in both cases, Wilson realized that new isn't always better.
The main cooking range in the kitchen, though it was installed in 1928, "has an amazing likeness to the large commercial ranges we use in today's most sophisticated kitchens," explains Wilson.
Originally the Magic Chef range was all gas with three ovens, four burners, two pancake griddles and two Salamander broilers sitting above the range, but it was updated with four additional electric burners during a previous renovation. It also includes a warming oven to address additional kitchen tasks, making it well suited to a chef-friendly kitchen.
In a previous renovation during the 1940s, the 40' of asphalt sheeting countertops were updated to stainless steel, and these became key to the current design.
Wilson explains: "In planning the kitchen, I was so taken by the beauty of the patina on the stainless steel and it's in amazingly good condition. I chose to leave it exposed since the countertops held up so beautifully, even with all of the years of hard use." She notes that stainless steel is also a good choice for its sanitary, durability and "green" qualities.
A short stainless backsplash and molded stainless double sinks create a uniform feel, while a 1928 faucet adds authenticity.
The pre-existing, table-height island was also surprisingly large and modern, Wilson notes, making it another "keeper."
However, to create a larger work space and incorporate additional eating space, Wilson installed a slab of flame-finished marble on top of one side of the island, using the other side as an eating area. "The flame-finished marble has a similar durability to limestone counters, however, since it has been flamed, it gives more texture to the surface," she notes. "The more you use the counters, the more character and patina they acquire, much like the stainless steel ones."
With approximately 80 linear feet of upper cabinets, the kitchen offers plenty of storage space. In the cooking part of the kitchen, all the upper cabinets feature glass-front doors, making it easier to find various cooking ingredients. Cabinetry below houses metal-lined drawers for storing food.
The 600-sq.-ft. butler's pantry also features abundant cabinet space, with two walls of upper and lower cabinets as well as a long wall of built-in cabinets to provide additional storage.
Light and Color
The original kitchen was poorly lit, and high suspended ceilings made incorporating additional lighting a challenge. Wilson explains: "I could not add hanging fixtures as the weight might very well pull down the ceiling." Even with the lighting in the tile hood above the range, the kitchen remained tremendously shadowed. To address this, Wilson used "a series of up lights, including torch lights and accent lights to illuminate the kitchen, butler's pantry and potting room."
Wilson also brought the Asian art nouveau design to life using a red, teal and yellow color palette, painting the ceiling with these colors to add warmth. Bamboo valances and a hand painted art silk panel in red and gold, designed specifically for the window treatment, finishes off the look.
