The Associated Press E very so often a revolution transforms something truly basic, rendering the status quo somewhat, well, primitive. First came covered sewers, then indoor plumbing and flush toilets. Now, one bathroom at a time, another major shift in toilet hygiene is quietly underway. A new generation of toilets may one day make toilet paper — and the need to put one's hands anywhere near the unspeakable — seem like chamber pots and outhouses: outdated and somewhat messy throwbacks reserved for camping trips. Unlike traditional toilets, the high-tech version washes from behind and — if desired — in front with water. Better models allow for temperature, direction and pressure control, and have retractable spritzing wands and automatic driers as well. The best feature warm seats, automatic motion sensors to raise Toto shows the Actilight Bowl for the Neorest 750H. the lid, buttons to raise the seat, nightlights, self-cleaning mechanisms, music to mask unpleasant sounds, deodorizer spritzers and other conveniences. "Paper just distributes the problem," said Lenora Campos, a spokeswoman for Georgia-based Toto USA. Toto, the Japanese company that pioneered the modern electronic toilet seat, has sold 34 million of them globally. "We wash most things with water and wouldn't dream of wiping a dish or anything else with a piece of paper and calling it clean. So why should personal hygiene be any different?" Toto began marketing the Washlet in Japan in 1980. Now 74 percent of Japanese households have toilets of the high-tech persuasion, making them more common there than home computers. The concept of electronic toilets that cleanse with water — widely known as bidet toilets or Washlets — has spread internationally over time, and dozens of companies around the world, including Inax, Brondell and Kohler, are producing them. Although most popular in Asia, basic versions are becoming standard in much of the Middle East and South America, where cleansing with water has long been preferred to paper. They are finally becoming more popular in Europe, mong the various questions we receive in the Extension Office, one of my least favorite comes from residents who have homes in northern climates, where they spend half a year during the summer months. My dislike for this question has nothing to do with the fact that they are away, but rather the impossibility of responding with an easy solution. The question is an old one: What should I do to prepare my lawn for a sixmonth absence? But the answer is complex, particularly for St. Augustine and zoysia lawns. If you are a six-month resident who is contemplating this question and you have not yet selected a grass for your home, might I suggest bahia grass? Of the residential choices, this type is among those that require the least attention. While it doesn't thrive on neglect, it requires much less attention than St. Augustine or zoysia. If you have a lawn already, and need to be away for an extended period, you need to find someone who understands management of these grasses; someone who will actually follow through on the watchful care these cultivars require. Whether you are going, or for those of us who are staying for the summer heat, there are some principles that would be good to review for your own management or for those who you will be hiring to watch over your lawn. A first factor to consider is the soil type. Many of these residential properties are built on imported soils commonly referred to as "builder's sand." This material is great for houses because it is an affordable option, and it drains well.

Q: A: TOILET: Some basic water-cleansing models now sell for less than $40 Continued from 4H where "boudoir paper" was introduced in the 19th century, and in equally paper-centric North America. They have been a long time coming. In the U.S., "bidets were always seen as European, and an oddity of the French," said Rose George, author of "The Big Necessity: The Unmentionable World of Human Waste and Why It Matters" (Metropolitan Books, 2008). In addition to general squeamishness about discussing the way we clean ourselves, some in the U.S. worried about the high-tech toilets' requirement that a grounded electrical outlet be nearby, or thought the early control panels made the toilets look clumsy. That said, the predecessor to modern high-tech toilets was actually invented in the United States, by Arnold Cohen of Brooklyn, who patented a pedal-operated seat he'd designed as a sort of sophisticated sitz-bath to help his ailing father. He founded the American Bidet Company in 1964, marketing his product as an "American way to bidet" and "the first wash and dry toilet." But the subject was considered too vulgar for ads. "I installed thousands of my seats all over the suburbs of New York, and we had offices all across the country," said Cohen, whose company still exists. "But advertising was a next-to-impossible challenge. Nobody wants to hear about Tushy Washing 101." The place where his invention really took off was Japan. "I licensed to the Toto company and sent container after container to Japan," said Cohen, whose patent later expired. Toto came up with a more sophisticated version and by 1980 had trademarked the Washlet. Sleek, electronic and no longer marketed as primarily a bidet, it became available in the U.S. in 1989. But it took another 20 years for mainstream American vendors like Home Depot and Lowes to embrace the technology and for prices to come down enough for average consumers. Toto's top-of-the-line Neorest toilet, a tankless wonder with all the gizmos, comes out this fall priced at around $10,000. Most high-tech seats with important features such as a retractable wand and a drier cost between $450 and $1,800, and some basic water-cleansing models made by lesser-known companies now sell for less than $40. So far, the seats seem most popular in larger cities on the East and West coasts, and in areas with large Hispanic populations. They seem to be gaining ground quickly among baby boomers and those who care for the elderly, as well as those interested in high-tech and environmentally friendly products. Scheer said the new type of toilet uses much less water and electricity than is required to produce toilet paper. One high-tech seat adds around $50 to $60 to the average household's annual electric bill, but saves much more than that on the cost of toilet paper, the companies say. 6 H | SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 2014 BIG SUN HOMES ■ Shawn Adam Mowry to Jennifer Rogers.

HOLMES: Soil test recommended Continued from 4H However, these sands are largely free of any organic matter that might contribute to the health of turfgrass. The inability of these sands to hold moisture, a desirable trait during storms, is a problem for thirsty grasses like St. Augustine and zoysia. This is especially a problem during late May, which is typically the second driest month of the year in North Central Florida. As summer approaches, temperatures move above 90 degrees which, combined with the dry conditions, requires supplemental irrigation for both St. Augustine and zoysia, particularly in sand soils. Allow these grasses to dry and damage will occur. A second concern relates to the nutritional needs of these grasses. The University of Florida recommends 3 pounds nitrogen per 1,000 square feet of turf per year for St. Augustine and zoysia grasses. This might be applied in three 1-pound doses in late March, late May and early September, or better, six applications of one-half pound beginning late March, about six weeks apart. Choose a nitrogen source that offers a slow-release option. If a soil test has not been conducted, it would be good to submit a sample to the University of Florida Soil Testing Lab. Test kits are available at your local Extension Office. The next issue is mowing. It is important to keep mower blades sharp, and the builder's sand discussed earlier creates rapid blade dulling. Length of cut also is very important. For fine-leafed zoysia varieties, allow grasses to grow to 3 inches, and cut them to 2 inches. For the wider St. Augustine, allow grasses to grow to 4 inches, and cut to 3 inches. Frequency of cut will vary during the season, depending on temperature, rainfall, soil type, sun or shade location, and general turf health. This is a problem for those who are away because they have a commercial firm cut grass, and commercial firms often operate on a schedule, which fails to account for the management factors just mentioned to determine when grass should be cut. Moreover, there is a temptation for commercial firms to overload the schedule, and grasses often are cut shorter than recommended in order to keep up with the schedule. The consequence of the "scalping" results in added stress for the grass, a condition that often doesn't manifest until the following cold season. As you can see, there are many factors that create the need for decisions during the growing season. These decisions are hard to make when one is away. So what can be done to take care of turf when one is away for so long? Consider the option of bahia grass if you are making a turf choice. Next, see if there is someone dependable who will perform the checks of your grass every two or three days that are required for optimal — or even acceptable — performance. Finally, eliminate as much turf as possible, using landscape beds, if you are going to be away every year for extended periods. David Holmes is Marion County extension director.

How to reduce humidity levels inside the home McClatchy-Tribune News Service home has an Q:My 18-by-8-foot insulated frame addition with five cheap single-pane windows approximately 25-by-53-inch each. During freezing temperatures, a large amount of frost and ice form at the base of these windows inside. Two open doorways of the main house provide heat to the addition, which is not independently heated. The outside walls of the addition are warm to the touch, while the temperature varies from 5 to 8 degrees below the main house, which has ad- equate furnace capacity to heat the entire home. Could insulated windows cure this problem? The existing windows are well-caulked, but north facing. When it's below freezing outside for several days, even a double-pane window can form moisture and frost on the interior glass. It would be wise to install storm windows just to conserve energy, but DWIGHT BARNETT A: you need to reduce humidity inside the home. A home that is well-insulated and air-sealed cannot move moisture from the inside to the outside without an air-to-air heat exchanger or a fresh-air intake system. This is a recommended add-on and is a necessity for the newer energy-efficient homes. For an existing home, you can remove the moisture by installing a timer for a bath fan and set the fan to operate for 10 to 12 hours every day. Make sure the bath fan is vented all the way to the exterior of the home. The fan will remove excess moisture and bring in fresh air through cracks or voids in the walls, ceiling and floors.

Shown here is the San Raphael lowprofile toilet from Kohler. KOHLER Spring forward with pillows McClatchy-Tribune News Service E Low-profile toilet concerns alleviated McClatchy-Tribune News Service MARY CAROL GARRITY with a low-profile toilet tank that needs to be replaced. Since we have a built-in shelf just above the tank lid, we need to install a new toilet with a very short tank as well. But, I've heard that the new watersaving low-profile toilets lack flushing power because of the short tank, and the reduced amount of water. Can you please address this issue? — Jack, California A toilet is one of the most used plumbing fixtures in a home. Switching over to a highefficiency toilet, or HET for short, is one of the easiest ways to save a lot of water. New HET's have been redesigned to flush with increased power, but use less than 1.3 gallons per flush. The extra HET flushing power can come from taller toilet tanks that generate more "head pressure" for a faster flush, or "assisted flushing have an old Q:We water-guzzling toilet A: systems" also can be used to make less water flush with more power. So, if you're looking for a water-saving low-profile toilet, I would look for one that operates with the new "pressure vessel" technology. Pressure vessel flushing systems store air pressure and water inside a closed vessel located under the toilet tank lid. When this type of toilet is flushed, the compressed air pressure helps deliver the extra flushing power wanted for a HET. Bottom line: Even with a low-profile toilet, with an assisted flushing system you can still get a high-profile flush. very spring, as the first crocuses push their way through the frozen ground, I whirl through my home switching the heavy layers of my winter decor to the lighter, brighter colors and patterns of spring. One of the first spots I hit? My accent pillows. Adding a few spring pillows to your sofa or bedding is one of the fastest, easiest and most fun ways to hit the "refresh" button on your interior decorating. Here are three ways to MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE spring forward with pilAdding a few spring pillows around your home is one of the fastest, easiest and lows: most fun ways to hit the "refresh" button on your interior decorating. ED DEL GRANDE 1. Embrace new spring colors Emerald green, navy, white — they are big, big, big this season. There is something so springy, so crisp and clean about navy, and when it's paired with the brilliance of white and the vibrancy of emerald, it's magical. When you pull in the colors of the season, don't be afraid to mix up the shades. I toss together all pigments of greens and blues, just like Mother Nature does. I think it adds more depth. Another wildly popular spring color scheme is preppy pink and green. It's a classic combo, but looks brand new when re-envisioned using today's cleaner, more saturated patterns. Don't be afraid to layer up lots of bold colors, like lime green, fuchsia and goldenrod. 2. Explore new spring patterns Some of this year's popular spring patterns are electrifying and make my heart thump with joy. But spring patterns don't have to include a rainbow of peppy colors. Pare down to two or three colors, such as a wonderful green and white, found on a freshly patterned pillow. Toss it on a chair, including your dining host and hostess seats, and you are ready for the season. Spring is also the perfect time for quiet color palettes. The soft blues and tans in the pillows above are dreamy and light and serene, like a spring day. Florals have made a big comeback in the past few years. But today's flower power is cleaner, less busy, utilizing strong color blocks and empty space. 3. Experiment with new pillow shapes When you add your new spring pillows to your sofa, chairs or bedding, experiment with different shapes. Instead of just tossing matching square pillows on each corner of your sofa, incorporate three different sized pillows in a variety of shapes. For example, if your sofa came with two 18-inch square pillows, as a lot of them do, add in a larger sized set of pillows, in from 21 to 24 to 27 inches square. If you are tired of the upholstery on your sofa, or the pillows that came with your sofa are getting worn down, have a new pillow cover made to replace the old. You will be amazed by how this easy switch instantly updates the look of your sofa. Then, strategically add a variety of pillow shapes to give your furniture that unbeatable custom look.

The 1924 Spanish-style home, featuring vaulted beam ceilings and stained glass, has been fully renovated. A rough-hewn wooden door serves as the house's portal, so to speak.

The more than one-third of an acre of grounds has patios, lawn and mature trees. Padalecki, 31, has starred as demon-hunting brother Sam Winchester on the fantasyhorror series since 2005. The Padalecki CW recently renewed the show for a 10th season. Before "Supernatural" he spent five years on "Gilmore Girls." The actor bought the property in 2009 for $1.775 million, public records show. He spends much of his time in Vancouver, Canada, where "Supernatural" is filmed.

First Steps Taken In Creating Diamond Transistors
Lee Rannals for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
Researchers from Ohio State University have demonstrated for the first time that information can flow through a diamond wire.
Scientists are working to develop "spintronics" in order to make computers simultaneously faster and more powerful. Spin could be used to help transmit data in computer circuits, and the latest research shows just how viable of an option diamonds could be.
The team wrote in the journal Nature Nanotechnology that they found electrons did not flow through the diamond as they do in traditional electronics. They discovered that electronics stayed in place and passed along a magnetic effect spin to each other down the wire.
"To a scientist, diamonds are kind of boring, unless you're getting engaged," lead investigator Chris Hammel, Ohio Eminent Scholar in Experimental Physics at Ohio State, said in a statement. "But it's interesting to think about how diamond would work in a computer."
The cost for the diamond wire didn't reach engagement ring proportions, however. At a cost of only $100, the researchers opted for synthetic, rather than natural, diamonds.
The team's finding represents the first step along a road that could eventually lead to diamond transistors. The discovery also could change the way researchers study spin, according to Hammel.
During the study, the team placed a diamond wire in a magnetic resonance force microscope and detected that the spin states inside the wire varied according to a pattern.
"If this wire were part of a computer, it would transfer information. There's no question that you'd be able to tell at the far end of the wire what the spin state of the original particle was at the beginning," he said.
In order to get the diamond to carry spin, the team had to seed the wire with nitrogen atoms for there to be unpaired electrons that could spin. The wire contained just one nitrogen atom for every three million diamond atoms, but that was enough to enable the wire to carry spin.
The researchers set the magnetic coil in the microscope to switch on and off over tiny fractions of a second, which generated pulses that created 15-nanometer wide snapshots of electron behavior. They knew the spin was flowing through the diamond when the magnet moved minute amounts as it was alternatively attracted or repelled by atoms in the wire.
The team also found that the spin states lasted twice as long near the end of the wire than in the middle. They suspect this effect was due to how closely they were able to zoom in on the wire. Hammel said their discovery challenges the way researchers have studied spin.
"The fact that spins can move like this means that the conventional way that the world measures spin dynamics on the macroscopic level has to be reconsidered—it's actually not valid," he added.

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Nalin Kohli said on Tuesday that the ongoing Four Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUP) tussle between the Delhi University (DU) and the University Grants Commission (UGC) seems to be because of lack of applications and absence of stakeholders' involvement.
"We have been continuously opposing the four year course because I think the three year course is something that serves the university students better. I hope UGC and DU solve the issue soon so that the admissions can take place smoothly and the interest of the students are met," Kohli told ANI. "DU situation needs clarity soon because the students shouldn't suffer. With regard to FYUP there have been controversies since its inception across the political spectrum, student bodies, students themselves and also among the teaching faculty. There seem to have been a lack of application or there seem to have not been involvement of the stakeholders and that is why we are in this issue," Kohli added.
The University Grants Commission (UGC) had on Sunday issued a directive to DU asking it to scrap the FYUP. The order fueled criticism from some quarters that the UGC was trying to overstep boundaries.
DU students as well as aspiring students have been facing a lot of difficulties due to ongoing tiff between the UGC and the university over the FYUP.
Some academicians are even planning to go on a hunger strike today against the UGC although the HRD Ministry has so far refused to comment on the issue.
Don't have the liberty to speak on FYUP tussle, says Smriti Irani
Human Resource Development (HRD) Minister Smriti Irani on Tuesday refused to comment on the ongoing Four Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUP) tussle between Delhi University (DU) and University Grants Commission (UGC). "I am not in the liberty to speak," said Irani. The statement came amid criticism from the DU executive council, who are also planning a hunger strike against the UGC directive. Read more
Student's suffer, Smriti Irani's ministry watches from sidelines
Tuesday should have been admission day in Delhi University (DU). But Monday ended that hope. DU was forced to go back on its word. The war over '4 years or 3 years' was at its gates. Human Resources Ministry (HRD) refused to intervene. This at a time when six international universities are waiting to enter India. And students are becoming the casualty owing to the uncertainty. They hung around colleges, knowing that they could do nothing. The move affects the lives of 80,000 students, who took admission in the Four Year Undergraduate Program (FYUP) in the last academic year, and another 54,000 who hope to be shortlisted this year.

Why the $5 minimum for credit cards
Posted By Paawan Posted On Friday, 6th MarAdd A Comment
We use Square as our POS system and credit card processing service. Square charges a flat 2.75% fee for every credit card transaction (if a credit card is swiped, else it's more). Many of you know this and some of you are reasonably upset that we now have a $5 minimum for paying by credit card. So why are we imposing a minimum when Square does not charge extra for small transactions?
Here's why:

1.Peel the cucumber and onion.
2.Cut the cucumbers into medallion.
3.Slice the onion into roundels. Add them to the cucumbers in the bowl. Make sure that the rings do not break.
5.Season the cucumbers and onions with 1-1/2 teaspoon of salt.
6.Season with black pepper and crushed red pepper flakes. Let it sit for 30 mins.
7.Drain the liquid from the bowl and discard.
8.Pour in the apple cider vinegar and the water.Stir to mix well.
9.Refrigerate for 3 hours.
10.Serve on the side with any entree.
•You can leave the skin on if you like the taste.
•You can retain the liquid that separates out from the vegetables to use in other recipes.
•White onions are fine but if you like a stronger taste, you can use red onions.
•This dish tastes best after two days in the refrigerator.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Perfect Save the Date
We ordered this Save the Date magnet and it was perfect! Our order took two weeks to receive, and when it arrived it came in a cute box that has magnet closures (could be used to store cards in the future) along with a book containing anything you need to know about ordering invitations. The magnets are made of great durrable quality, the design was flawless. It was just what we were looking for! It can be personalized to your taste and color scheme which was also a huge plus as we have Navy and Ivory as our wedding colors. You won't regret ordering this magnet and your guests will love looking at this reminder on their fridge!
Beautiful and Compact Save the Dates
I ordered these beautiful save the dates in red and grey which are my wedding colors, they came out very beautiful and they are very compact magnets. They are for the person looking for something cute, they don't look very formal or extremely romantic when you receive them although they look that way on line I think they may just require a Font adjustment to look more romantic in style, but other than that these are beautiful save the dates.
The Perfect Save-the-Date Magnet
The process of designing and ordering was great. After placing our order we were able to view what stage in the process our order was in, which is a great feature. Once we received our magnets we were absolutely pleased with how they turned out. Great Quality!!!
I was very upset when receiving my product the sample was so cute and when I got the 125 magnets that I ordered the picture of my fiancé and It was totally messed up half his head was missing! I wanted to send them out today and now I have to wait to talk to someone until Monday I am hoping they will overnight a new batch to me!
Heart Shaped Magnets
My fiance and I are very happy with the Save The Date heart magnets we personalized, and received. We just sent them out today. They look exactly like how we designed them on the website, and the colors were perfect. The silver lining envelops are very nice. I also really am happy with the size, like a small "thank you" note. It's not too big, and not too small. I highly recommend these. (and fast delivery too!) 2-28-2015
