Mike Holloway
Florida head coach Mike Holloway, who was named the first head coach of the combined men's and women's program on June 19, 2007, has directed a clear course for success both on and off the track. In 2013, the Gators came up big once again, capturing their second consecutive NCAA Outdoor Championship.
Trailing Texas A&M by nine points heading into the final event, the Gators, with a lineup of Najee Glass, Hugh Graham, Jr., Dedric Dukes and Arman Hall, claimed the 4x400-meter relay title (3:01.34) and the 10 points that came along with it. A&M – in the same race – dropped the baton but rebounded to finish eighth, giving them one point and putting them in a tie for the national title with the Gators.
The Gator men's 4x100-meter relay was first on the track on Championship Saturday and started things off right, capturing the fifth 4x1 NCAA outdoor crown in program history. The foursome of freshman Antwan Wright, Graham, Jr., senior Leonardo Seymore and Dukes got it done for the Gators, edging out runner-up Alabama by a hundredth of a second, 38.53 to 38.54.
Defending his NCAA Championship was senior triple jumper Omar Craddock, who became the first Gator since Olympic gold medalist Christian Taylor to win back-to-back titles in the event (2010, 11). Florida has captured eight combined men's triple jump national crowns in the last five years.
For the team's efforts, Holloway earned his second straight and fifth overall USTFCCCA National Men's Head Coach of the Year honor.
Indoors, the Gator men were the NCAA runners-up, and as of the end of the 2013 season, the Gators have finished in the top three in 14 of the last 22 national meets (indoors and outdoors).
Junior Eddie Lovett etched his name in the record books on the second day of the NCAA Division I Indoor Track & Field Championships, setting a new meet record in the men's 60-meter hurdles with a new personal best and school record of 7.50. Lovett is now fourth all-time in collegiate history and brings home Florida's first 60-meter hurdle title in program history. It's the second hurdle crown in Florida school history, as Earl Diamond won the 55-meter hurdles at the 1989 NCAA Indoor Championships.
Sophomore Marquis Dendy captured his first individual NCAA crown, leaping to a new personal best and school record of 8.28m/27-2 to take home the title. The two-time SEC Champion indoors in the event, Dendy fouled his first two jumps before leaping 8.10m/26-7 on his third and final jump of the first flight to take the lead into the finals. On the first jump of the finals, Dendy improved to 8.23m/27-0 to extend his lead. Getting the crowd into it, Dendy got Randal Tyson Track Center on its feet and clapping, using the energy and one of his best approaches of the night to jump 8.28m/27-2.
Dendy is Florida's first-ever men's long jump champion and won the Gators' eighth horizontal jumps national title in program history, all coming in the last four years.
It could be argued that 2012 was the finest overall season in the history of the program.
The 2012 men swept the NCAA Championships for the first time in program history. They became just the sixth program in NCAA history to have completed the team title sweep. In winning their third-consecutive NCAA Indoor team title, the Gators became just the third different program in NCAA history to win three consecutive NCAA Indoor Men's Championships. The Gators swept the 2012 NCAA 400m and triple jump titles, as juniors Tony McQuay and Omar Craddock each took home two individual NCAA titles in 2012. The Gators totaled 21 All-America honors during the course of the 2012 season, with 24 first team and 12 second team members.
Senior Jeff Demps claimed his third consecutive NCAA Indoor 60 meter title, setting the school record of 6.52 in the preliminaries of the NCAA Indoor Championships. Demps became the first three-time indoor NCAA spring champion since 1988 and just the third ever in NCAA history. Demps went on to earn a silver medal at the 2012 Olympic Games as a part of the men's 4x100-meter relay, having run the opening leg in the preliminary round.
Junior Tony McQuay swept the 400 meter titles at the NCAA Championships, while anchoring the 4x400-meter relay to victory at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. McQuay was a finalist for the 2012 Bowerman and a silver medalist at the U.S. Olympic Trials (400 meters) and 2012 Olympic Games (4x400 relay).
Holloway was named the 2012 U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Men's Head Coach of the Year both indoors and outdoors, marking the third and fourth national coach-of-the-year honors of his career. He was the USTFCCCA's South Region Women's Head Coach of the Year indoors and the SEC Women's Indoor Head Coach of the Year.
The 2012 women took home their second SEC team title in three years and the seventh team title in program history. The Gator women won with depth, scoring 132 points at the meet with only one individual title. Florida turned in a runner-up finish at the SEC Outdoor Championships, scoring 138 points. The Gators' 4x400-meter relay earned All-America honors both indoors and outdoors at the 2012 NCAA Championships, while the women won seven individual conference titles, six of those coming at the SEC Outdoor Championships. Overall, the Gators earned a total of 23 All-America honors during the season.
The 2011 men claimed the 2011 NCAA Indoor team title, becoming just the fourth different program in NCAA history to win back-to-back NCAA Indoor Men's Championships .The Gators placed third at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, totaling 53 total team points to mark their third consecutive top-three outdoor finish. Florida jumpers took the 2011 NCAA triple jump titles, with Will Claye winning the indoor and Christian Taylor successfully defending his outdoor crown. The Gators totaled 36 All-America honors during the course of the 2011 season, with 24 first team and 12 second-team members.
Holloway was named the 2011 U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Men's Head Coach of the Year indoors, marking the second national coach-of-the-year honor of his career. He was also honored as the USTFCCCA Men's Indoor South Region Head Coach of the Year.
Sophomore Jeff Demps took home his second consecutive NCAA 60 meter title in 2011, setting a then-school record of 6.53. Demps also won the SEC Championship in the event and anchored Florida's SEC Championship team outdoors in the 4x100-meter relay.
The 2010 Gators, rallying behind the motto "Finish the Mission," posted four top-four national finishes for the first time in the history of the track and field program. The highlight of that season was the first NCAA Indoor Championship in the history of the Florida men's program, achieved at the Randal Tyson Track Center in Fayetteville, Ark. The Gators scored 57 total team points en route to the victory and defeated second-place Oregon and Texas A&M by 13 points.
The 2010 men, who claimed their first Southeastern Conference Outdoor Championship since 1987, capped off their season with a runner-up finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Over the course of the season, Florida captured five NCAA individual championships. The men's 4x100-meter relay squad, directly coached by Holloway, captured its second consecutive NCAA Outdoor Championship.
Holloway's pupil Jeff Demps was part of three individual NCAA Championships during the 2010 campaign. He anchored the winning 4x100-meter relay squad and won national titles in the 60-meter dash indoors (6.57) and the 100-meter dash outdoors (9.96). Demps' performances drew national attention, as he was named one of 10 finalists for The Bowerman, track and field's highest honor.
Holloway's dynamic relay corps set school records in both the 4x200m (1:20.38) and the 4x400m (3:00.31), both set at the 66th Pepsi Florida Relays. His 4x100, 4x200 and 4x400 quartets all won ACCUSPLIT relay awards for having recorded the fastest time in the nation over the course of the season.
Holloway was named the 2010 U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Men's Head Coach of the Year, marking the first national coach-of-the-year honor of his career. He was the USTFCCCA's South Region Men's and Women's Head Coach of the Year both indoors and outdoors. Additionally, he was the SEC Women's Indoor Head Coach of the Year and the SEC Men's Outdoor Head Coach of the Year.
The 2010 Florida women posted a third-place finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, the second-highest placing in school history next to a runner-up showing in 1992. With four athletes scoring all of the Gators' points at that meet, Florida tallied 40 team points and won three NCAA individual national championships. The Gators, who were fourth at the NCAA Indoor Championships, won the 2010 SEC Indoor Championships in February, scoring 110 total team points.
The 2009 campaign left added motivation for Holloway's squads in 2010. The Gator men charted second-place finishes at every major championship meet, an impressive feat that left Florida hungry for more. As an underdog, the UF women won the 2009 SEC Outdoor Championship and posted their second consecutive top-10 finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
Holloway is entering his 12th season as the head coach of the men's track and field program, which boasts over 500 All-America honors and more than 50 individual NCAA Championships in its history. In his five years directing the men's program alone, Holloway oversaw seven individual and relay NCAA titles, four runner-up finishes at the NCAA Championships and two NCAA East Regional titles. He is beginning his sixth season leading a storied women's program that won the 1992 NCAA Indoor Championship and has captured 12 SEC Championships in its history.
Numbers like those put the Gators on the level of one of the most dominant programs in NCAA history, and Holloway is a tremendous reason why Florida is synonymous with the top teams in the nation. Those figures don't even take into account his seven seasons as one of the top sprint and hurdle assistant coaches in the country.
In his 18 seasons at Florida, Holloway has guided athletes to the following accomplishments:
- Indoor 400m world record holder (Kerron Clement – 44.57)
- Collegiate 400m hurdles record holder (Kerron Clement – 47.56)
- Collegiate indoor 4x400m relay record holders (3:03.51)
- No. 2 all-time American 4x100m relay (38.35)
- No. 2 all-time 200m indoor and No. 3 outdoor collegian (John Capel – 20.26, 19.87)
- No. 3 all-time 100m American collegian (Bernard Williams – 9.99)
- No. 4 all-time collegiate shuttle hurdle relay (54.76)
- No. 5 all-time collegian 110m hurdler (Josh Walker – 13.32)
- No. 5 all-time collegian 400m hurdler (Rickey Harris – 48.16)
That's a lifetime of coaching honors and Holloway has accomplished those feats in a decade-and-a-half.
Holloway, who was named Florida's men's track and field head coach in 2002 after serving as an assistant at UF since 1995, is one of the premier sprint coaches in today's track and field world, and has developed the Florida men into one of the top collegiate sprint programs in America since he took control of the reins in 1995.
The list of accolades and accomplishments Holloway's athletes have earned at both the professional and collegiate levels is staggering and continues to grow with each successive year. He has coached seven athletes to a total of 13 Olympic or World Championships medals, seven of which have been gold.
Most recently, Holloway was with Team USA in London for the 2012 Olympic Games, coaching the men's sprints and relays for the United States. Holloway coached three-time NCAA Champion Tony McQuay to a silver medal in the men's 4x400-meter relay and five-time NCAA Champion Jeff Demps to a silver medal in the men's 4x100-meter relay.
Holloway is currently the head coach for the U.S. men as they prepare to compete at the 2013 IAAF World Outdoor Championships.
Holloway was in Osaka, Japan, with former Gator Kerron Clement for the 2007 IAAF World Outdoor Championships when the latter won gold in the 400mH, claiming just the second individual world track championship by an athlete with ties to the UF men's program. In 2005, he guided Clement, then a 19-year-old phenom, to a world record in the indoor 400m (44.57), as Michael Johnson's 10-year-old record fell. Later in the year, Clement won the U.S. Outdoor Track & Field Championships title in the 400m hurdles with the fastest time run in the event since 1998 (47.24) before he claimed his second-straight U.S. 400m hurdle title in 2006.
In 2004, four current or former Holloway-coached athletes competed in the Olympics, with former Gator Bernard Williams earning a silver medal in the 200m. In addition, Clement set a record in the 400m hurdles at the 2004 World Junior Championships. In all, nearly 15 athletes who have trained under Holloway participated at the U.S. Olympic Trials.
After being named head coach of the Gator men's track & field program following the 2002 season, Holloway quickly set out to instill in the rest of the athletes the same philosophy and work ethic that has made his sprinters so successful. As a result, the Florida men won the 2003 NCAA East Regional team title, finished second at the 2003 SEC Indoor Championships and were sixth at the 2003 NCAA Outdoor Championships. For his efforts at the East Regional meet, Holloway was named the East Region Coach of the Year.
In 2004, Holloway coached UF to runner-up finishes at all five championship meets (NCAA indoors and outdoors, SEC indoors and outdoors and the NCAA East Regional), while his athletes claimed six SEC titles, three NCAA titles and earned 31 All-America honors that year. Things kept chugging right along in 2005, when the Gators duplicated their efforts from 2004 by taking second at all five championship meets. Florida racked up 27 All-America honors, four NCAA titles and seven SEC crowns along the way.
In 2006, Holloway mentored a pair of Gator freshmen, guiding them to monumental achievements, as Jeremy Hall became the first freshman in more than 30 years to claim the SEC 60m title and Calvin Smith earned indoor All-America honors in the 400m before going on to achieve the same feat outdoors. The latter also became just the second athlete in school history to win the SEC outdoor 400m crown as a freshman.
Holloway's tenure as an assistant coach, however, was no less decorated than his time at the head of the men's program. He added the first individual national title to his list of accomplishments in 1999, and by the end of the 2000 season, he had added two more national championships in events Florida had never been able to win before: the 100m and the 4x100m relay.
In 2001, Florida was one of only two schools to have at least one athlete qualified for the NCAA Championship meet in every event 800m and lower. This all came just months after freshman Rickey Harris ran a then-school-record 45.78 to win the NCAA Indoor 400m championship. Harris' time was the third-fastest in the world during the season and claimed Florida's first indoor individual national title since 1990.
In 2002, Harris won the 400m hurdles championship at the NCAA outdoor meet, giving UF its first-ever title in the event and becoming the first double NCAA champion under Holloway. Harris set a then-school record in the process and his time of 48.16 ranked as the third-fastest final time in meet history. He then went on to finish second in the 400m dash, becoming the second male athlete in NCAA history to earn All-America honors in both events in the same year, and the first to do so since 1963.
Holloway's reputation as a sprint coach was solidified before then, though. One need not look further than his squad's performance at the 2000 NCAA Outdoor Championships, when his athletes won two national titles and scored a school-record 42 points by themselves. The Gators' 4x100m squad cruised to the fastest time ever by a collegiate squad that included a lineup comprised solely of American citizens, and earned the school's first national championship in the event. Bernard Williams capped an astounding first season at the NCAA Division I level with Florida's first 100m national title.
Earlier in the year at the 2000 NCAA indoor meet, sophomore John Capel equaled the American and collegiate record of 20.26 in the 200m. He was the only collegian to break the 20-second barrier that year and finished with the second-fastest time in the world before eventually making the 2000 U.S. Olympic Team.
Holloway began setting the foundation for the Gators' emergence on the national sprint scene from his first year as a coach during the 1996 season. Since then, sprinters have earned 150 of the 214 All-America honors bestowed on the Florida track and field team, including an award in every sprint event - indoors and out.
Also boasting international experience, Holloway served as the head coach of the U.S. team at the NACAC Under-23 Championships in 2004, where American athletes guided by Holloway combined to win 27 of the 40 events.
In addition to how his athletes fared at the 2004 Olympics, Capel won the gold medal in the 200m and was the leadoff leg of the gold-medal winning 4x100m relay team that also included former Gator Bernard Williams at the 2003 World Championships in Paris.
At the 2000 U.S. Olympic Trials, Holloway-coached prodigies won both semifinal heats of the 200m before Capel grabbed the victory in one of the most anticipated track match-ups in the preceding four years. Capel defeated world-record holder Michael Johnson and "the fastest man in the world," Maurice Greene, not only in the finals but also in the preceding semis to earn the top 200m spot on America's team for the Sydney Olympic Games.
Florida alumnus Dennis Mitchell was working under Holloway's direction when he captured the 100m title at the 1992 and 1996 U.S. Olympic Trials. During the summer of 1997, Florida alumnus Mark Everett posted the second-fastest all-time 800m performance by an American when he clocked a 1:43.20 at a meet in Line, Austria, while working under Holloway.
Having served as the girls and boys head coach at Buchholz High School from 1985-1995, Holloway was no stranger to the tradition-rich Gainesville track & field community prior to being named a Florida assistant. During his 11-year tenure, Holloway guided the Bobcats' programs to a total of 19 county, 17 district, 14 regional and eight state titles, (including cross country).
In all, 18 of 20 boys' school records and 14 of 19 girls' records were broken during the Holloway Era. Among the long list of accomplishments Holloway contributed to the Buchholz program, the school's 1995 milestones could arguably be his most lasting achievements. Holloway led both the boys' and girls' Buchholz teams to state titles in 1995, marking the first time such a feat had been accomplished by one coach.
At the beginning of his coaching career at Buchholz, Holloway worked as a graduate assistant for two years (1986‑87) under then-Florida women's head track & field coach Lyle Knudson. During this time, Holloway coached UF's 4x800m foursome of Sandra and Sonja Braasch, Chris Crowther and Susan Nash to a world-record time of 8:29.35 and a U.S. National indoor title.
Holloway is married to the former Angela Fitts. They have a daughter, Michele, a son, Michael II (MJ), and three grandchildren.

I bought my 2046 when they first came out and have had it ever since. I use it for making garments, repairing-altering jeans, and some quilting. I have always had an issue with the zig zag stitch and the overlock stitch. I like to use the overlock stitch to finish my seams. And of course the zig zag to repair jeans. I can only go so far and the machine locks up and I have to rethread, untangle and start all over. I always use metrosene or gutterman thread. I waste a lot of thread and time. I had the machine checked when I needed to replace the threaded and the guy told me it was fine. So when it did that I quit sewing for the day and tried again the next day. It usually worked. About a year and a half ago, it started acting up more. I took it in and he checked it out good, and he made minor adjustments. I couldn't tell any difference. A month ago it seized & the entire bobbin case moved and I was unable to move the needle all the way down. It hit he bobbin case because it was in the wrong spot. A part was broken and he replaced it. Now I just the machine back today and started sewing, it jams up and same thing. Bobbin case moves all over the place and I can't put the needle down. Very frustrating. I know I have the metal hook assembly but is it possible that is the problem?? I have read it is an issue in this model but my tech says no. It has never worked right with those stitches so something isn't right!! Thanks!
Take it back he's not fixing the problem he's just Adjusting. On my machine I had it jam the needle
Broke part of the bobbin case off . It caught that part all the time. I took the piece of material in that I was sewing on and showed him. I also showed how it was sewing on the stitches.
Problem solved.
I would take it back show him that piece of fabric
He's taking the short cut.
------Ecclesiastes 11:7,8 Nothing on earth is more beautiful than the morning sun. Even if you live to a ripe old age, you should try to enjoy each day, because darkness will come and will last a long time. (CEV)
I'm taking I to someone else next week. The guy argued with me on the phone today that I was using the machine for more than it was meant to. What??? I can't make garments and repair jeans on a pfaff 2046??? Sounds like an excuse to me... I'm tired of the same issue and want to get it resolved. The machine doesn't do much good just sitting there.
When I owned a 2056 the bobbin hook assembly started having problems. The same thing happen to my dd 202x model. This assembly had to be replaced and at that this many of the Pfaff machines were having the same problem. Check to see if it is silver metal looking or black. The black one is the newer one and fixed the problem. You may need to change it. Hope this helps.
------There is no easy way! quote from my Grandfather
Sharing is caring!
Mine is the silver one. I have had problems with this machine since I got it. I have never been able to use the decorative stitches because it always jams up, thread breaks, etc...very frustrating. Now to get the tech to listen to me. They always comment how clean and well maintained my machine is, charge me an arm and a leg and never fix anything. The position arm finger is what broke last time, and it just did it again. My nearest tech won't be back in town until after Jan 6th, so I'll just have to wait and research and probably frustrate the tech even more by then
above is link to someone who was having the same problems I had link -- Edited on 12/29/13 11:22 AM --

FAQ Hot Tubs
FAQ about our wooden hot tubs
Add text here
How do wooden hot tubs hold water? +
At Zen Bathworks we use high quality clear cedar and our tubs are made with care and precision. Just like a wooden boat, the wood swells in the presence of water to form a tight seal.
What is the best way to heat my tub? +
The answer depends on your situation. That is why we offer three types of heating systems. Electric heaters (most popular), Gas heaters (for very cold climates), and Wood heaters (for economy). Find out more about heaters.
What is the heat rate of the various types of heaters? +
Electric heaters: 6-10 degrees per hour, Gas heaters: 20-40 degrees per hour, Wood heaters: 10-20 degrees per hour. The electric and gas heaters keep the tub hot continuously, so heat rate is generally not an important consideration unless you plan to turn the tub temperature down between uses.
What is a safe temperature for hot tub water? +
Most people will find that 100 to 104 is about right. The factory setting on most tub heaters has a limit of 104 degrees Fahrenheit. There is some room for adjustment, but temperatures higher than 104 can be hazardous to your health. Children should use a tub that is no hotter than 100 degrees.
How much does it cost to operate a hot tub? +
There are three factors that effect the cost to operate a tub: Size of the tub. Climate. Cost of energy or fuel. Our simple Chofu wood heater is the most economical to operate. Our electric and gas heated tubs run between $1.50 and $3.50 per day to keep hot. Not bad for a spa in your backyard!
How do tubs ship and how much does shipping cost? +
All of our tubs are professionally packaged and crated for safe transport to your door. Your tub is shipped by trucking service. We ship to most USA addresses for FREE. There are some exceptions to this rule such as Hawaii, Alaska, or difficult to access locations. Our rates to HI and AK are low - please call for a quote.
How hard are tubs to assemble? +
Our tubs are designed to be easily assembled by the owner. Each tub comes with a detailed step by step illustrated instruction manual. Typical assembly time is about 3-4 hours and requires minimal tools: a couple of wrenches, a level, and a rubber mallet. The heating system will take 2-4 hours to install. If you are not comfortable setting up your tub, you can hire a contractor or handyman to do it. If you have an electric or gas heater, these connections will need to be made by a qualified professional.
What do I need to do to prepare my site for a wooden hot tub? +
The three most common sites for a wooden hot tub are on the ground, on a patio, or on a deck.
On the ground: Site should be level and compact. Use fine gravel or coarse sand to prepare a well-drained level base.
On a patio: Existing patios or a poured concrete pad are a good place for installing a tub.
On or in a deck: Deck installations are a great choice. You use a deck to provide easy entry into a wooden tub. If the tub is to be placed on a deck, be sure it is engineered to handle the weight. Have a professional check for proper support. A tub full of water is very heavy - refer to the tub specifications for actual weight of each of our tubs. Filled weight for an average tub is over 4000 lbs.
Can a wooden hot tub be installed below ground? +
Our tubs are easiest to install above the ground. Below ground tubs will require a retaining wall and cannot be backfilled. We recommend above ground installations.
Where is the best location for my tub? +
There is no definitive answer to this question of course, but there are a few things to keep in mind. The closer your tub is to your house, the more you may use it. A deck with a tub right outside the bedroom is very convenient. Proximity to power or gas sources may be a requirement. Privacy and setting are important. If you want to set your tub in a secluded spot away from it all, consider how to get power to the site for the heating system.
Can I install my tub indoors? +
Indoors is generally not the best place for a hot tub because of the large amount of water vapor they release into the air. Outdoors is best and is what we recommend.
How heavy is the tub when it's full of water? +
Our tubs range in size and weight. You can find full details on approximate capacity and weight here.
How hard are wooden tubs to maintain?
Cedar tubs are easy to maintain. Unlike tubs made of artificial materials, wooden tubs don't blister or fade. We recommend brushing on an occasional coat of teak oil on the outside only to keep the cedar looking glorious! Cleaning the inside amounts to an occasional washdown with a soft brush, a little soap and a good rinse.
Is maintenance difficult? +
What is the recommended way to keep the tub water clean? +
Fresh clean water is what you want in your tub. Warm water in a hot tub will get dirty quickly unless steps are taken to keep it clean. Our recommended method involves three things working together. A filter, a UV water purifier, and limited use of a special type of chlorine. When you purchase a tub kit from us we include what you need to get off to a good start. The details are included in the instructions that come with your tub.
What size tub do I need? +
Do you make custom sized tubs? +
Yes we do. Different size? Different type of wood? Contact us to discuss your plan.
What about freezing temperatures? +
Cool and cold weather was made for hot tubbing! It is crucial to have a good thermal cover and a floating blanket. Cedar is a good natural insulator - and our tubs have been performing very well from Alaska to Maine. Our SmarTouch (electric or gas) heaters have a thermostat and freeze protection that keeps the water warm and moving during cold weather. In some areas bitter cold winter weather makes use of the tub impractical during the coldest times. Heating costs will be higher in winter because of the additional heat times required. If you expect to be away or don't intend to use your tub during freezing temperatures the tub can be drained and shut off. Refer to your owners manual for details on how to drain and winterize your tub.
How does the tub drain? +
Each of our tubs includes a floor drain. With a simple fitting, you can attach a garden hose to the drain and dispose of the water into your landscape or down a storm drain. We recommend draining and refilling the tub every 6-10 weeks or as needed. The water is safe to use for landscape plants, but not for your vegetable garden.
How do Zen Bathworks chofu wood heated tubs compare to inside-the-tub wood heaters? +
The exterior Chofu heater has many advantages over submerged inside-the-tub heaters such as the snorkel stove. Inside heaters can take up as much as 1/3 of the interior space of your tub! The Chofu does not take up any room inside the tub. This means you have 1/3 more space in the same tub - or you can get a smaller tub and have the same space. Inside heaters prevent the use of a full coverage insulated top so heat is lost. The Chofu heated tub can use a full coverage thermal blanket and cover so less heat is lost. Water level must be kept over the tube of a snorkel heater to prevent warping the metal box - an approach that is prone to problems and wastes water. With the Chofu, water level can be set much lower to eliminate wasted overflow. Unlike interior wood-fired heaters the Chofu introduces no wood debris or ash into the water - helping to keep things nice and clean.
Do you have a guarantee? +
Our tubs and equipment have a limited warranty for a full 2 years against defects in material or workmanship. Because of the natural resistance of Western Red Cedar, your tub will give you up to 25 years of service. Covers have a limited 4 year warranty.

Imagine relaxing on a comfy sofa with a plate of cookies while listening to local readers and writers tell their stories. Real stories. Intimate stories. The kind of stories that move you to tears one moment, laughter the next. This weekend, you can do just that when the inaugural session of "The Living Room: Eagle River Writers Read" opens from 7-9 p.m. on Friday, Jan.10 at Jitters.
King salmon are the lynchpin of the Cook Inlet fishery. Other runs of other salmon species are far more abundant, but the health of king salmon affects all users. Alaska is currently experiencing historic low runs of king salmon returning to major systems throughout the state. It affects Alaskans who have fished for kings for years in these rivers and creeks, and the visitors thousands of businesses depend on every summer.
It was a dark and foggy night back in July 2013 and visibility hovered around zero when Lt. Cmdr. James R. Kenshalo maneuvered his U.S. Coast Guard MH-65 Dolphin helicopter above cliffs outside of Point Reyes, Calif.
Anchorage Police detectives are seeking to speak with Brett William Hopper as they continue their investigation into the death of Eagle River's Andrew Conn. Conn, 32, was found dead at his home on Mountain Vista Drive on Dec. 7, 2013.
It's early Sunday morning and I'm sitting in the front of an SUV, creeping around Eagle River with a team of people I've just met: Tracy Lohman and her son, Lucas, 11, and his teacher, Kelsey Chalker, all who have driven in from Anchorage.
Achy muscles? Sore throat? Tight and raspy chest? Uh-oh, sounds as if you're catching the flu. According to Donna Fearey, State of Alaska nurse epidemiologist, we're thick in the middle of flu season.
I don't usually make New Year's resolutions. It's not that I don't believe in them. It's that the idea of carrying through on selected promises for 12 consecutive months scares the heck out of me. Last year, however, I managed to tweak out a few. And I'm happy to report that I failed on every one.

The Robins sit just one point above bottom placed Barnsley in the Championship, and have reportedly offered £200,000 for the Scot, who is believed to be keen to return to England.
Kelly's contract expires at the end of the season, and while the former MK Dons player has not rejected the offer of a new contract, Shiels is hopeful he will stay.
Speaking to STV, Shiels said: "Liam is happy to stay with us. I'm sure he'll get plenty of offers but hopefully we can keep him at the club.
"In fact we would be keen to tie him to a new deal."

Parallel CommentariesMatthew Henry's Concise Commentary
1:24-29 Both the sufferings of the Head and of the members are called the sufferings of Christ, and make up, as it were, one body of sufferings. But He suffered for the redemption of the church; we suffer on other accounts; for we do but slightly taste that cup of afflictions of which Christ first drank deeply. A Christian may be said to fill up that which remains of the sufferings of Christ, when he takes up his cross, and after the pattern of Christ, bears patiently the afflictions God allots to him. Let us be thankful that God has made known to us mysteries hidden from ages and generations, and has showed the riches of his glory among us. As Christ is preached among us, let us seriously inquire, whether he dwells and reigns in us; for this alone can warrant our assured hope of his glory. We must be faithful to death, through all trials, that we may receive the crown of life, and obtain the end of our faith, the salvation of our souls.
Pulpit Commentary
Verse 25. - Of which I became a minister (2 Corinthians 4:5; 2 Corinthians 6:3-10; 2 Corinthians 11:28, 29; 1 Thessalonians 2:1-12; Acts 20:28; 1 Peter 5:1-4). His sufferings are, therefore, matter of duty, as well as of joy. As the Church's minister, he is bound to toil and to suffer in whatever way her welfare requires. Elsewhere he styles himself "minister of the gospel" (ver 23; Ephesians 3:7), "of God," "of Christ," "of a new covenant" (2 Corinthians 3:6). (On "minister," see note, ver. 7. According to the stewardship of God, that was given me to you-ward (Ephesians 3:1-13; 1 Corinthians 4:1-4; 1 Corinthians 9:17; 1 Timothy 1:4, R.V.; 1 Timothy 3:15; Luke 12:42; Luke 16:2-4; Hebrews 3:2-6; 1 Peter 4:10). Οἰκονομία ("economy") is first "house-management," then "administration" generally the οἰκόνομος ("house-steward") was a confidential upper servant, frequently a slave, who controlled the general arrangements of a large establishment, and was responsible immediately to the master. Such an office the apostle holds, along with others (1 Corinthians 4:1), in the Church, "the house of God" (Ephesians 2:19-22; 1 Timothy 3:15; 2 Timothy 2:20: this conception, like that of "the body of Christ" - comp. note on ver. 18 - is fully developed only in the later Epistles). In this office he "administers the gospel" (1 Corinthians 9:17, 18), "the grace of God" (Ephesians 3:2; 1 Peter 4:10), and here more especially "the mystery" of vers. 26, 27 (comp. Ephesians 3:9, R.V.). In Ephesians 1:10 and Ephesians 3:2, the οἰκονομία is referred to God himself, the supreme Dispenser in his own house. This office "was given" him, and specifically as "toward the Gentiles" (for "you" points to the Colossians as Gentiles, vers. 24, 27, notes; Ephesians 3:1, 2; Romans 11:13), when he first became a servant of Christ (Acts 9:15; Acts 22:21; Acts 26:16-18; Galatians 1:15, 16; 1 Timothy 1:11-15; Romans 15:15, 16). Some interpreters connect "to you-ward" with the word "fulfil," but less suitably (comp. Ephesians 3:2; Romans 15:16). To fulfil the word of God (Romans 15:16-19; Romans 16:25, 26). "To fulfil" (see vers. 9, 24, and "fulness," ver. 19; also Colossians 2:9, 10; Colossians 4:12) is either "to complete," to give full development and extension to the gospel message (vers. 5, 6; 2 Thessalonians 3:1; 2 Corinthians 2:14-17; Romans 15:19; Acts 20:20, 21, 27); or "to accomplish" the prophetic word (Romans 9:24-26; Romans 15:8 - 12; Acts 15:15-17), as in Acts 13:27, and frequently in the Gospels. This verb πληρόω, however, is not used by St. Paul elsewhere in the latter sense, and the former precisely suits the context (compare parallels from Romans). Other interpretations - "to preach abundantly," "to continue Christ's preaching" (Ephesians 2:17; Hebrews 2:3), "to execute the Divine commission" - miss the sense of the verb. The word which it is the object of the apostle's ministry to fulfil, and in regard to which he had a special stewardship, is none other than -
Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
Whereof I am made a minister,.... Not of Christ, or of the Gospel as before, though both were true; but of the churches for whose sake he endured afflictions; and which carries in it a reason of his suffering for them: he was not a saviour of the body, nor a redeemer of the church, nor Lord of it; but a minister, a servant of it, that ministered to it in holy things, in the word and ordinances; not a deacon, as the word, sometimes signifies, nor an ordinary minister, or a pastor of a particular church; but a minister of the church in general, being an apostle sent to preach the Gospel everywhere: he was made a minister of it, not by men, or anything he received from men; nor by himself, not by usurpation, he did not thrust himself into this office, or take it upon him of himself; but was put into it by Christ, who counted him faithful, he appeared to him, and made him a minister, qualified him for this office, called him to it, and sent him to perform it: and which he executed
according to the dispensation of God: or divine economy, which denotes such an authority and administration as is used in a family. The church is God's family, it is called the house and household of God, and the household of faith, part of which is in heaven and part on earth; God is the householder or master of the family; Christ is the Son over his own house; ministers are stewards in it, and their work is to give to everyone their portion of meat in due season; their authority from God to do so, and the exercise of it, are the economy or dispensation of the Gospel committed to them: this is of God and not man, for none but God can give them a power to dispense it, and which is purely of his grace, called therefore the dispensation of the grace of God, Ephesians 3:2; and here said to be given,
which is given to me for you; not according to any merits of his, who was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an injurious person to Christ and his Gospel; but according to the pure grace of God, and that not for himself, but for the good of others, for the Gentiles especially, and so for the Colossians:
to fulfil the word of God; either the promises and prophecies contained in the word of God, respecting the preaching of the Gospel to the Gentiles, and their conversion by it; which had in a great measure their accomplishment through the ministry of the apostle: or to fill all places with the word of God and Gospel of Christ, as the apostle did from Jerusalem, and round about to Illyricum, diffusing the savour of the knowledge of Christ in every place; and sinners being converted, churches were planted and daily filled with such as should be saved; or to preach fully and faithfully the Gospel, keeping back nothing that was profitable, but declaring the whole counsel of God, continuing faithful to it to the end, as he did: to fill up or fulfil words is an Hebraism, and signifies to confirm them, or act according to them; see 1 Kings 1:14 and the Septuagint there.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
25. am—Greek, "I was made a minister": resuming Col 1:23, "whereof I Paul was made a minister."
dispensation—the stewardship committed to me to dispense in the house of God, the Church, to the whole family of believers, the goods of my Master (Lu 12:42; 1Co 4:1, 2; 9:17; Eph 3:2).
which is given—Greek, "which was given."
for you—with a view to you, Gentiles (Col 1:27; Ro 15:16).
to fulfil—to bring it fully to all: the end of his stewardship: "fully preached" (Ro 15:19). "The fulness of Christ (Col 1:19), and of the times (Eph 1:10) required him so to do" [Bengel].
Colossians 1:25 Additional Commentaries
Paul's Suffering for the Church
24Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I do my share on behalf of His body, which is the church, in filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions. 25Of this church I was made a minister according to the stewardship from God bestowed on me for your benefit, so that I might fully carry out the preaching of the word of God, 26that is, the mystery which has been hidden from the past ages and generations, but has now been manifested to His saints,…

Best 36" duel fuel gas ranges?
My dream kitchen plan would have a 36" range. I liked the GE Monogram, mostly because of the easy glide racks inside. It's a little steep. Lesser expensive models don't necessarily have easy pull-out racks. Anyone recommend other brands?

danakscully64 5 years
You know why the kids don't eat much of their food? Note that they were throwing away a lot before Jamie started cooking. They're filling up on sugary milk. I have 7 nieces and nephews... if you give them a high sugar or any calorie drink with their meal, most of their food doesn't get touched. I know that 1 cup of milk has 12g of sugar, which = 1 tablespoon. Add chocolate to that, you're looking at 25g-30g or so. But it doesn't stop there, those bottles that were served to them, they held about 2 cups. Most of the kids don't drink it all, but most of the bottles being tossed were half full. That's a lot of sugar. Water should be the only option served at lunch. Kids don't get enough water these days, too much sugar juice, milk, and soda.

jessvogel85 - I think the kids were just going along with it. Jamie made it sound exciting to eat the nasty parts of the chicken. Also, one kid raised his hand, the other boys saw it and raised theirs, then the girls saw and raised theirs. It was more like monkey see, monkey do.

If anyone missed one or both of the episodes, they're available on the ABC web site. I'm watching the 2nd one now.

When they were waiting for the test results to see if that boy had diabetes was so incredibly sad. I was fighting back tears. Simply because he was young and clearly did not do this to himself. So sad to see the pain in the parents eyes knowing that they have contributed to their sons declining health.

I saw parts of both episodes and hope to catch up on the full versions soon. I was amazed and disgusted and somewhat hopeful, that some, maybe many, will change their ways and make better choices to live healthy. Changing the school offerings is just a small part of the picture; look at the parents, they need to understand it's not too late for them to turn their own lives around too ... do they not get NBC/The Biggest Loser? That show is the best example of how with a little effort and a big commitment to yourself, major things can happen. Go Jamie!
danakscully64 5 years
I watched the first episode, missed the 2nd. I was irritated how up on their high horse the lunch ladies were. When they went head to head serving baked chicken vs pizza, the ladies didn't give a dang about the nutritional aspect, they just wanted to win. I can't believe how unconcerned the ladies were about the ingredients list on the boxes of the food they were serving. Even if Jamie didn't change anything in that school or that town, then maybe parents who watch the show will demand change in their children's schools. They could still serve pizza, but not for breakfast and maybe one with pure ingredients (whole wheat crust, low-sugar pizza sauce, low-fat mozzarella, vegetables on top). Kids are picky and need a chance to warm up to change. No wonder they wanted the pizza, it was heavily processed and that's what they're used to.

This show sparked a huge discussion at the lunch table at work. A small minded co-worker said "They should just buy fruits and vegetables and eating fast food is way more expensive." To say something like that ignores all of the socioeconomic and lifestyle factors that contribute to these people's eating habits. It really bothered me that she couldn't look beyond her own choices.

Yeah, that Alice woman is SCARY.

you'd have to see the show before you judge it for what it's saying. the children who were in elementary school could not identify a potato. they knew what french fried were though, and it went beyond. they couldn't name any vegetables. it was horrifying. i'd seen food inc the day before and i'm distressed. the show was great, if you can stomach it.. and i don't have much hope for his success (the lunch lady attitude sums it all up: convenience and cost over healthy food.)

I don't think Jamie Oliver is saying there is a fatty foods addiction. Its just more convenient for people to pop frozen food in the oven and call it a night, so he wants to show people that there are much better options out there, and even though they may take longer to prepare its better for your health in the long run.

I saw his presentation at Ted. I like the idea, but I'm, I guess, a little pessimistic right now about it. It's difficult to change eating habits of thousands of people.
AmberHoney 5 years
No, and this whole food thing is getting outta hand. Now fatty foods are an addiction, what's next? Give me a freaking break..this country has an addiction for everything. Tiger Woods sex addiction, but lookout here comes Jesse James with this tattooed babe addiction, then there's Donald Trump with with money addiction and dear, sweet Heidi with her plastic surgery addiction. I could go on and on and on, but I gotta go puke from all the BS that being crammed down my throat.

I didn't see it but I would really like to. I saw him on Oprah and the show looks really interesting. Somehow, someway we've got to do better for our kids!
5 years
I hope he can get the ball rolling. If nothing else, maybe fewer households would have freezers full of frozen pizza and not much else. Horrifying!

Watched it and the chicken nugget experiment was able to disgust and disappoint me at the same time. How could the kids still want chicken nuggets?!?!

Great Day of Soccer
The Great Day of Soccer is an event that was started over 20 years ago. It originally was only a skills competition for the players of SMSC to test themselves against their peers. Today, the Great Day of Soccer still has the skills events for all ages and genders of registered soccer players but is also a Division III only tournament for Girls and Boys, drawing teams from around the south. Through all of the years Coca-Cola has been the sponsor and organizer of the Great Day of Soccer. Coca-Cola determines the results and ranks the top ten individual players in each age group/gender, the top team scores based on the cumulative individual scores within a team and the overall highest scorer for Boys and Girls. Coca-Cola then holds an awards ceremony where the individuals and teams receive certificates for their accomplishments, shirts, plaques, and trophies dependant upon the level of achievement. SMSC has been the proud host of the Great Day and will continue to work with Coca-Cola for as long as we exist to ensure that the Great Day of Soccer remains an event that is fun for all the participants.
The Great Day of Soccer Events will be scheduled for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, February 7. The Great Day of Soccer tournament is on the weekend of February 21-22, 2015. The tournament is for all recreational teams, ages u10 – u16 .

**- Cagnin is very much a part of the show for the lineup that visited the Weidner. His mop-top head of hair is that of a flashy maestro – suitable for tossing like a mane. His moves, gestures and mannerisms are that of a music man with top-shelf musical/showbiz flourishes. He looks like he is having a great time whether attacking the piano or coaxing just the right sound (mostly) out of the boys with myriad nuances of the wrists, arms, hands, fingers or nod of head. When a song finishes, up Cagnin springs from the Steinway, turning with flair, flashing a radiant smile and acknowledging applause as he conducts a bow from the group and/or an individual boy. Clearly, Cagnin knows how to make it seem like he is enjoying himself. And why not? Touring around the
Saturday night, the deal included performing in a hall meant for such a concert. No microphones (except for Cagnin's announcements). Stage set up with the huge acoustical wood wall in place. No adornments. Just a piano, two risers, 23 boys and one man. Okay, sing. Prove why the Vienna Boys Choir name has been around so long. It happened.
Now, to some extent, the Vienna Boys Choir is a cover band. Saturday's concert included two original songs, "The Choir" and "Tradigister Jodler," written top to bottom for the Vienna Boys Choir. "The Choir" is a beauty, with layers, nooks and crannies of sound meant to show off the abilities of the boys with sophisticated elements of singing. The other songs were borrowed and adapted to feature a sound, an era, a style, a mood or a tempo. The variety was wonderful.
Announced program
(Consider this a sampler because not all the songs were sung, and not necessarily in this order. Also – hello? – why weren't enough inserts printed for Saturday night's audience? Ushers ran out of inserts, and audience members had to share or go without).
"O Fortuna/Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi" from "Carmina Burana," Carl Orff (1895-1982)
"Omnes de Saba venient," Joseph von Eybler (1765-1846)
"Insanae et vanae curae," Joseph Haydn (1732-1809)
"Ave Maria," Tomas Luis de Victoria (1548-1611)
"Der 23 Psalm," Franz Schubert (1797-1828)
Solo to be announced from the stage: It was "Pie Jesu," Andrew Lloyd Webber (born 1948)
"Easter Hymn," Pietro Mascagni (1863-1945)
"Tod und Liebe," Raoul Gehringer (born 1971)
"The Choir," Gerald Wirth (born 1965)
"Jubilate Deo," Heinz Kratochwil (1933-1995)
"Eljen a Magyar," Johann Strauss, Jr. (1825-1899); arranged by Uwe Theimer
"Oh Happy Day," Edwin Hawkins (born 1943)
"Gabriellas Sang," Stefan Nilsson (born 1955); arranged by Lars Wallenas
"Thank You for the Music," ABBA-Benny Anderson (born 1946) and Bjorn Ulvaeus (born 1945)
"Volare: Nel blu dipinto di blu," (Domenico Modugno (1928-1994)
"Nella Fantasia," Ennio Morricone (born 1928)
"Tradigister Jodler," Gerald Wirth (born 1965)
"Leutl, miassts lustig sein," folk songs from Austrian
"Wien, du Stadt meiner Traume," Rudolf Sieczynski (1879-1952); arranged by Gerald Wirth
"Fruhligngsstimmen," Johann Strauss, Jr. (1825-1899); arranged by Gerald Wirth
"An der schonen blauen Donau," Johann Strauss, Jr.; arranged by Gerald Wirth
"Tritsch Tratsch," Johann Straus, Jr.; arranged by Gerald Wirth
Encore 1: Medley starting with "Oh Maria" and ending with "Shout"
Encore 2: "Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord" from "Godspell"
The boy often featured in soprano solos received much applause and sometimes cheers. He was excellent for what his singing was, a step away from the mustard and color an experienced adult can throw into the sound. I have a feeling I'm swimming upstream here, but that is what it is.
"Jubilate Deo" was amazing. In the glorious song is a section with the boys' voices sequenced perfectly to not only imitate but seem for-real the sounds of church bells chiming. That was world class for sure.
For American ears, it was a treat to hear the treatment of Paul Simon's "The Sound of Silence" taken into a sweet, church-like setting. And Edwin Hawkins' gospel-adapted old hymn "Oh Happy Day" taken to a classier level.
Gerald Wirth must be The Man for the Vienna Boys Choir. His songs and arrangements set up the choir for luster, and all the songs leading up to the finale were arranged by him. Saturday, those songs were received with ever-growing audience admiration. Excitement was stacked higher and higher. It was fascinating to witness. Once the audience was completely enthralled leading into the conclusion, the Vienna Boys Choir could do no wrong.

In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the linguine until al dente. Drain and transfer to a large bowl.
Meanwhile, remove the papery particles from the fiddleheads. Fill a medium bowl with cool water; add 1 teaspoon salt and the lemon juice. Add the fiddleheads, and push them down into the water several times to clean them. Transfer them to a steamer rack in a saucepan and steam, covered, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, until soft. Add the fiddleheads and cook 1 to 2 minutes more, until warm and golden. Stir in the dandelion greens. Toss the mixture with the pasta, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

Alitalia has signed an agreement with US bioenergy group Solena to look into converting biomass from municipal waste into biofuel to power part of its fleet of aircraft.
The Italian carrier has signed a letter of intent with Solena to begin a feasibility study examining the possibility of building a plant to convert household waste that would otherwise have gone to landfill into a gas. The gas will then be turned into liquid biofuel through the Fischer-Tropsch process.
No site has yet been identified for the proposed plant. A spokeswoman for Solena Italia says that discussions are taking place with national and local authorities over where to locate the facility.
"The identification of the amount of convertible biomass, the quantity of jet fuel deliverable, price and delivery period are the scope of the study," adds the spokeswoman.
British Airways last year signed a similar agreement with Solena, under which the airline agreed to purchase all of the fuel produced by Solena's planned GreenSky conversion facility in east London to use on part of its fleet from 2014.

President Obama's order on Wednesday to curb government waste is the latest echo in a year of announcements calling for government agencies to watch their spending. In September, Vice President Joe Biden called on Cabinet secretaries to hold agencies accountable through a series of auditing programs. Biden's announcement was the result of his work on the "Campaign to Cut Waste," the creation of which earned its own executive order by Obama in June. The latest order attempts to extend the waste campaign into a few specific areas.
"I'm announcing an executive order that will build on our efforts to cut waste and promote more efficient spending across the government—we're cutting what we don't need so that we can invest in what we do need," Obama said in a statement before signing Wednesday's order.
Agencies will be required to submit plans in the next 45 days that will reduce in five areas (most of which, by the way, are taken straight from California Gov. Jerry Brown's playbook): excessive travel and conferences, unused technology, unnecessary printing, superfluous motor fleets, and frivolous promotional handouts.
If all goes according to plan, the White House estimates the order will cut waste in federal agencies by 20 percent.

Tradition and monotheism in eastern Indonesia
Nusa Tenggara Timor, a south-eastern province of Indonesia, is populated mainly by Christians. The Alor-Pantar Archipelago has a majority of Protestant inhabitants who were baptized by Dutch Calvinists in the first half
Nusa Tenggara Timor, a south-eastern province of Indonesia, is populated mainly by Christians. The Alor-Pantar Archipelago has a majority of Protestant inhabitants who were baptized by Dutch Calvinists in the first half of the twentieth century. In addition, there are some coastal enclaves that have been inhabited by Muslims for centuries. In some areas, such as in the headland of Muna (Tanjung Muna) forming the northeast of Pantar Island, there is an even greater diversity of monotheistic religions, with some Catholic families living next to Protestants and Muslims. All adherers of the three religious faiths living at Tanjung Muna share core elements of the local adat, which consists of core rules relating to social behavior. It is believed that the ancestors will notice transgressions of these rules, and may use their supernatural power to punish their human descendants. In Indonesia, the term adat was first used by Muslims to distinguish the non-Islamic practices from Muslim faith (Keane 1997:260-261). This is definitely not the case in the village of Pandai at the coast of Tanjung Muna, where Islam tolerates ancestral worship.
