Ask Away...: How I Created My Perfect Bathroom With A Few Basic Tips

How I Created My Perfect Bathroom With A Few Basic Tips

My bathroom was without a doubt the most problematic room in the house. At first, I couldn’t put my finger on it because it came with all the necessary fixings and furniture. I didn’t need to buy a toilet or a shower or a sink; I just needed to give it a bit of a makeover. Other than that, though, it was good and ready to go. But, I realised that the little things make a big difference and I wasn’t concentrating on them enough. It took me a long time, but I soon got there in the end! So, to help you avoid the same mistakes, here are a few of the things that I learned along the way.

1.    Choose a good mirror

Mirrors work on a lot of levels, and they add a lot to your bathroom. The main importance, style wise, is the light. Because they reflect light at different angles they make the room look bigger than it is. Of course, size isn’t everything, but if your bathroom is small, you can struggle for functionality and storage space. If your bathroom is a little cluttered, a good mirror will make it look less untidy. Also, you need a decent mirror to get ready and make yourself look your best. You don’t want to go out looking like The Joker! Mirrors give a bathroom the perfect mix of style and practicality.

2.    His and Hers basins

If you have the room, two basins or sinks are a good choice for a little bit of luxury. His and hers are something you would find in an upmarket hotel or spa, not at home. By just adding an extra sink for you or your partner, you bring that sense of luxury to your bathroom and it doesn’t take much. Just take a look at web pages like and you will see what I am talking about. A nice sink costs less than one hundred dollars, which is a lot cheaper than the alternative!

3.    Shower accessories

I am not just talking about shower gels and lotions either. Of course, nice soaps and scented candles are a good addition to your bathroom because they give off a lovely atmosphere. Plus, they add a little bit of luxury, just like his and hers basins. But, there are also changes to the shower that you can make. Shower doors make a big difference, I swear that is not a joke, and the shower head is another alternative. If you choose doors and heads that are big and bold, it makes the shower more of a focal point, and they make your bathroom more functional.

4.    Reconsider furniture

You might think that once the fixtures are installed, there is no moving them. I mention this because a lot of people shudder at the thought of changing their toilet, sink or shower. To be fair, the idea of smelling for a couple of days is not one that fills me with joy! That is not necessarily the case, but more to the point it is also not that much of a deal. So, reconsider the fittings to transform your bathroom. For example, a walk in shower or a corner sink will help you maximise space in your bathroom. Not only does it look good, it makes your bathroom bigger and easier to use. Remember that a dream bathroom isn’t just pretty; it works!

5.    Cut a hole in the roof

That’s what I did! Okay, although I am telling the truth I am being a little facetious. What I mean by cutting a hole in the roof is installing a skylight. It is all about the amount of light your bathroom lets in. There might be a solitary window, but in the main they don’t tend to have lots of areas that let in light, which is why a skyline is a great choice. Light is important because it makes the room look bigger and brighter, which we have already discussed. But, it also gives your bathroom another vent to let the steam and moisture escape. Moisture is where bacteria reproduce and causes problems like mould, so you want to stop it at its source.

Like I said, it took me a while, but once I figured it out my bathroom soon transformed into one of the nicest rooms in the house. And let’s face it; no one wants a dirty looking bathroom. With these five tips, it definitely won’t be any of the two.

  1. Even though I'm selling my house, I do have a window in my bathroom and a skylight. But when it came to the mirror, I bought it online and really didn't pay attention to the dimensions too much. I've realized it is really important to pay attention to the dimensions of the actual mirror itself and not the mirror as a whole and if there are reviews, to read them and see if anyone said the dimensions listed were not accurate.

  2. Have a great weekend

  3. The Masterbath of our home came with two sinks. I LOVE it! It's great to have my very own sink and also all the counter space on the looong counter. What I don't love is that the bathroom isn't completely closed from the bedroom. I love that it's attached, but there is a large open space between the top of the dividing wall and the ceiling. I think it's weird.

Ask Away...: How To Wear Everything Curvy Girls Are Told Not To!

How To Wear Everything Curvy Girls Are Told Not To!

Pexels Image Courtesy Of: Unsplash

When it comes to plus size fashion there seem to be tons of rules that larger ladies are expected to follow or gasp, you’ll look, dare we say it, fat. Women are supposed to have curves, including a waist, hips, and chest, so one of the coolest outfits you can wear is confidence! If you feel beautiful on the inside then you’ll automatically look good on the outside. Being at peace with who you are is far better than an entire wardrobe of cute, flirty, designer fit and flare dresses.

Cozy Capes

Larger ladies are often told to avoid anything that’ll make them look bigger than they are, and voluminous capes and blanket wraps do have a lot of material. However, paired with the right jeans, top and skirt combo or dress capes look gorgeous and can really help pull an outfit together. Capes are also ideal for spring when the weather’s not quite warm enough to wear just a jumper but the idea of wearing a full on padded coat just seems crazy.

Striped Dresses

There hundreds of magazine articles out there on how to wear, and not to wear stripes which seems a bit like overkill to us. Instead of focusing on the pattern, be it stripes, dots, or wavy lines look at the fit and choose a loose, flowing dress with a little extra room in it. Plus size sites are great for finding clothes that not only give you a great silhouette but you won’t be worried about material pulling across your stomach. Don’t think that dresses are just for warm weather either! Why not pop a thin, roll neck jumper or blouse underneath to mix things up a little? You won’t be cold, plus you’ll feel like you’re wearing a pinafore dress which is currently one of fashion’s hottest trends.

Layered Bodycon

Embrace the athletic wear trend and wear a bright, bold bodycon dress with a thin hoody, leggings and high top trainers. The idea here is to layer your look, using thin light materials, so you don’t create a boxy or round silhouette and picking clothes that’ll highlight your best features i.e. your hips or waist without hiding the rest of you. Even when it comes to plus size fashion don’t be afraid to wear a crop top over a thin vest top and athletic trousers, like yoga pants or tight cycling gear as it’ll look very cool paired with the right jacket.

Leather Leggings

We know you probably don’t usually see curvy girl and leather leggings in the same sentence, but it’s entirely possible to wear them. The key to wearing tight trousers is to know what shape suits you and then find a pair with just a little extra give in them. Faux leather leggings can actually be quite stretchy especially if they've been made with elastane panels so don’t worry about squeezing them over your hips. If they’re the right size, they’ll fit you like a glove. Why not wear them with chunky, ankle boots? Critics say they’ll make your calves look bigger but again pick the right size and you’ll be strutting your stuff in no time!

• What's New in Asthma Treatment Research?

  • Can't Catch Your Breath? Breathe Easier by Getting to Know Your Asthma Treatment Options

    Asthma is a long-term disease, and asthma treatment aims only to control the disease, not cure it. It is also a highly capricious illness, with symptoms changing from person to person or an individual’s symptoms worsen or lessen seasonally.

    Besides having individual symptoms, people with asthma also have individual ‘triggers’ which can set off or worsen asthma symptoms. Hence, it is important to identify and control these triggers. Some examples of triggers are pollen or air pollution which can be controlled by limiting the time spent outdoors when the levels of these substances are high. Different medications can also be triggers, for example Asprin (ASA) can trigger asthma attacks in 20% of adults, and therefore it is crucial to inform a doctor or health care provider when receiving new medication about being an asthmatic.

    Even though exercise can possibly be a trigger, it isn’t one that should be avoided as it is part of a healthy lifestyle. A doctor should be consulted should any problems with exercising arise as it indicates that some aspect of the asthma treatment is inappropriate.

    Therefore, in order to devise an asthma treatment the doctor must prescribe individualized medication to help minimize a person’s specific asthma symptoms.

    A doctor will also prescribe the lowest dose of medication possible to curtail possible side effects while, maximizing effectiveness.

    Finding an ideal dose may require experimentation with a variety of doses and medications. Regular visits to a doctor will allow symptoms to be monitored and the asthma treatment adjusted if necessary.

    Asthma treatments generally can be taken in two forms: either as a pill or using a device called an inhaler which allows the medicine to be transported directly to the lungs[1]. As was said earlier, the lowest amount of medication is used which leads doctors to prescribe more inhalers than pills, since the dose of an inhaler is in micrograms (one millionth of a gram) whereas a dose of a pill is significantly more being in grams. As not all inhalers are used in the same way, ask a doctor or other health care provider to demonstrate the proper way to use the inhaler.

    The majority of asthmatics take two kinds of medication, as each asthma medication treats only one aspect of the condition. The first type of medication is controllers, also called “preventers”. Controllers reduce inflammation in the airways through a daily dose. Controller medication ensures the lessening of symptoms over time. However, do not stop taking controllers once all symptoms have abated, for if you do the airway inflammation may return. Instead, talk to your health care provider to minimize your dose.

    The second type of asthma treatment is relievers. Relievers are designed to immediately alleviate symptom such as coughing or wheezing, but they have no effect on the inflammation. Consequently, a controller is needed to treat the underlying inflammation. It is also important to monitor your reliever usage in case of an increase indicative of the worsening of the general condition.

    Regardless of the asthma treatment, it is important to regularly contact a doctor or health care provider so ensure the asthma treatment is appropriately adjusted to each individual case.

Research Centers & Collaborations

Many efforts in modern Astronomy require the efforts of large collaborations. The age of survey science, fully established with the advent of the SDSS, has brought together hundreds of astronomers to create effective teams to tackle the challenges presented by cataloguing literally millions of objects with high quality spectra. Similarly, the intersection of particle physics and astronomy brings with it the approach of teams of hundreds of researchers designing large experiments.

Many members of the Astronomy Department at UW-Madison are participating in a number of collaborative efforts, ranging from ongoing participation in the SDSS to the planning of the next generation of radio telescopes in the SKA.

A New View of the Highly-Ionized Gas in the Milky Way

Type Conference Paper
Names Nicolas Lehner, W. Zech, J. Howk, B. D. Savage
Proceedings Title Bulletin of the American Astronomical Society
Conference Name American Astronomical Society, AAS Meeting #215, #415.12
Volume 42
Pages 262

Library Catalog NASA ADS
Abstract Using the highest resolution mode of STIS (R>114,000, 1.3-2.7 km/s), we provide new insight into the physical properties of the highly ionized plasma probed by the "high ions" (CIV, SiIV, NV). We use a high-quality sample of 38 sightlines probing both the Galactic disk and halo gas. Contrary to common belief, we find that 40-50% of the individual components of SiIV and CIV are narrow, implying cool temperatures of T<50,000 K. Very few of these narrow components are consistent with photoionization by OB-type stars; photoionization from radiatively cooling hot plasma or the remains of a hot radiatively cooling gas is a more likely scenario. The remaining 50% is consistent with >100,000 K plasma, but the contribution from non-thermal motions can be significant. Thus, the broad components may be hot, collisionally ionized gas, but some fraction may also be cooler gas with significant non-thermal components. We finally compare the properties of the highly-ionized gas with other gas-phase tracers (e.g., AlIII, SiII, X-rays) in order to decipher the relationship between the various phases of the interstellar gas.

Lenovo FRU 42T4785 Replacement Battery Tips

  • New rechargeable Lenovo FRU 42T4785 battery is usually in discharged condition. Therefore, you need to charge the battery before you use it. In addition, the new battery needs charge-discharge cycle two or three times.
  • When using the battery, lower the screen brightness, use the standby and hibernate features, try to turn off the wireless, bluetooth and infrared port. Also avoid enabling 3D programs, games, and more, in order to reduce battery consumption.
  • If your system has a removable FRU 42T4785 battery, take care not to damage the battery contacts. They connect the laptop to the battery, and if the contacts get dirty or damaged, it can reduce and disrupt the flow of power. You can clean the contacts with a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol, but damaged contacts might need to be professionally repaired.
  • Avoid using in very hot or cold temperatures. Extreme temperatures could affect battery's performance and even cause permanent damage. Try to charge at room temperatures

Automotive textile manufacturer recovers major energy savings from compressor waste heat

Automotive textile manufacturer Autofil Worldwide has achieved average cost savings of £37,000 a year and reduced annual CO2 emissions by 260,000 tonnes by adopting Atlas Copco’s energy recovery technology.

energy recovery equipment for automobile industry

Based in the UK, Autofil Worldwide is one of Europe’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of polyester yarns for the automotive sector. By recovering heat produced by the air compressor used in the manufacturing process, the company is able to raise the temperature of the process water it requires, which reduces overall energy usage.

The primary manufacturing operations at Autofil’s 10,000sq m UK plant require a substantial volume of compressed air, which is supplied via an Atlas Copco system. The system is controlled by an ES 360 optimiser, and comprises 12 compressors, including three GA 160+ units and a GA 250 compressor connected to a stand-alone ER-S5 energy recovery unit.

As well as the considerable demand for compressed air on site, the dyeing processing has an equally large requirement for process hot water. A 50,000 litre tank stores water for several dyeing process operations in the factory and the by-product heat from the GA 250 compressor is used to pre-heat this water to around 50°C, rather than relying on additional gas power to heat it at point of use.

This is made possible by the ER-S5 energy recovery unit, whereby hot oil from the compressor’s air end is diverted through a stainless steel plate heat exchanger. Heat from the oil is transferred to cool water on the opposite side of the exchanger, producing a continuous flow of hot water from the ER outlet. The water circuit between the tank and ER unit takes cooler water and replaces it with the heated water. After a few hours, this circuit reaches its optimum inlet/outlet temperature: inlet water from the top of the tank to the ER at +/- 30°C; outlet water fed back from the ER to the bottom of the tank at +/-55°C, achieving a temperature rise of 25°C.

Based on the compressor running for 8,424 hours per year, the combination of the GA 250 and ER-S5 unit is recovering more than 1.4 million KWh of energy a year. The savings are self-evident: to increase the temperature of the same amount of water with a gas-fuelled heating source would have cost Autofil £37,096 annually and would have generated 260,000 tonnes of CO2 Commenting on this substantial reduction in his company’s carbon footprint.

Commenting on this substantial reduction in his company’s carbon footprint, Steve Charlton, Autofil’s Engineering and IT Manager, said:

“We are an energy conscious company and constantly strive for improved efficiency and energy saving solutions in the way we run our operations. Atlas Copco’s Compressor Technique Service team have been able to provide sustainable energy-saving solutions over recent years to help us reduce our compressed air energy consumption, notably the introduction of their ES 360 optimiser controller which matches supply to demand, allowing us a 360 degree visualisation of the compressed air installation in terms of pressure, supply and demand. Now, we have added an energy recovery unit to further optimise the installation.”

Steve Charlton, Autofil's Engineering and IT Manager
GA built-in energy recovery system for GA 30-90/GA 37-90 VSD oil-injected screw compressors

At its plant in Sherwood Park, Nottingham, the company manufactures coloured air-textured (ATY) and false-twist textured (DTY) polyester yarns with a natural appearance. Using these yarns, Autofil’s customers weave or knit fabrics which form the basis of interior trim for seats, door panels, pillars, parcel shelves and headliners.

With a continued focus on environmental responsibilities, including industry standards such as ISO14001 and the recently-introduced ISO50001, Autofil is keen to focus on managing and monitoring its energy usage, and the environmental impact of its process operations. For many manufacturers, producing compressed air is neither cheap nor energy efficient, with as much as 94% of the electrical energy used to compress air delivered in the form of heat. This heat has to be removed via the compressor cooling system and is often wastefully vented into the atmosphere − along with a substantial amount of energy and cost associated with the production of compressed air, a proportion of which may be surplus to the required amount.

By recovering this heat for another practical purpose, the potential for savings is obvious, as is the performance of Autofil’s ER unit. To provide evidence of this, inlet/outlet temperatures from the ER-S5 are continuously monitored via the temperature sensors provided and can be visualised in a number ways − on the compressor controller and on Autofil’s ES360 optimiser controller, which allows for trend readings and can be continuously monitored via the company’s BMS.

With Atlas Copco SMARTLINK-Energy, the values can be monitored at any time anywhere via the SMARTLINK website. These monitoring and display solutions allow the creation of reports, essential for ISO auditing requirements, as well as for internal management and performance systems.

    “The small town of Badolato Borgo is a little off, but very idyllic on a hill (hill tuff) and can only be reached by car, in the village itself is only 2 small dining venues. In the high season more options. A car is needed. For us the choice of the small pretty medieval town was an ideal base for hiking trips in the surrounding area. Historically, worth seeing is also Stilo (Byzantine church), Gerace and Locri (Roman excavations).”

La dolce vita – discover the sweetness of live

Whether in Tuscany or at Lake Garda, the Ligurian Riviera or the Adriatic Sea, sunny Calabria or snowy South Tyrol: Italy has always been the epitome of wanderlust, travelling and relaxation. No matter where in Italy you are, it is always the open-hearted people with their original Italian love for life and the busy and colourful flair in the Italian villages and small cities that make this Mediterranean country that attractive and unique. Take a stroll along the small alleys to piazzas, refresh yourself in a typical Italian bar, discover ancient treasures from the renaissance or just bathe in the sun – you will soon understand the meaning of Italy and the “dolce vita” – the sweetness of latraveo offers you across Italy an exceptional choice of more than 44,500 holiday apartments and houses. From Tuscan country manors to cosy city apartments like in Venice or Florence ife.

Worth a culinary journey

Whilst enjoying a holiday home vacation you can also have a try at preparing typical Italian food. Eventually the uniqueness of the country is also down to its culinary specialities. With fresh produce bought at the local market even a simple pasta sauce with a glass of wine tastes that much better than at home. Alternatively you can pamper yourself in one of the many Italian restaurants.

Explore Italy’s cities from your holiday apartment

One outstanding highlight is of course Italy’s renowned cities. Rome, the Eternal City, leads the way with its ancient treasures and architectural master pieces such as the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon or St. Peter’s Basilica. Venice is world-famous and unique for its setting in the lagoon and its canals which stretch through the city. Florence, Verona and Siena impress with their cultural sights. And while Milan in the north made its name as the fashion capital Naples in the south attracts tourists with its spectacular location between the sea and Mount Vesuvius. Choose a holiday apartment in one of the Italian cities or at least plan one or two city day trips – you won’t regret it.

By plane, car or train to Italy

Depending on your travel destination and starting point there are several journey options available. The most flexibility is guaranteed by travelling with your own car. However one must consider that travelling to south Italy takes a long time. There are international airports all over Italy and flights to popular holiday destinations are provided all year round. Travelling by train is also a good option when visiting the country south of the Alps.

Top 10 Las Vegas Casino Hotels

MGM Grand

Address: 3799 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109

The MGM Grand is the strip's hotel and casino of superlatives. It is the largest casino in Clark County, so bring your time, chips and plenty of luck if you plan to stay there. When it opened it was the largest hotel in the world. Although it no longer holds this title, it still maintains its status as the largest hotel resort complex in the United States. Not bad! So, if the MGM is your choice, you're in for numerous spas, waterfalls, pools, shops, nightclubs and restaurants- AKA nonstop fun.

The Luxor Hotel & Casino

Rate this attraction:
Address: 3900 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89119

The stunning black pyramid that everyone sees on the Las Vegas strip is indeed the Luxor. Named after Ancient Egypt's city of Luxor, the pyramid tower design is an ironic contrast in its modernity. Nonetheless, the Luxor is your ticket to everything Vegas, from spas and pools (there are four large ones), shopping stores (there are 29 of these), and even a wedding chapel. You've also got five different shows to choose from such as Criss Angel's or Carrot Top's comedic act.

Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino

Rate this attraction:
Address: 3950 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89119

Mandalay Bay's exterior derives its stunning colors from the gold leaves used on its windows during construction. The shows at this hotel and resort have always been high quality and have included Mamma Mia!, Cirque du Soleil, and the House of Blues. This is an excellent place to go when the weather is extra hot, as Mandalay has gone to great lengths to provide its guests with plenty of options for staying cool. There's Mandalay Beach for starters, which includes a wave pool and a European-style pool called Moorea. If you're not feeling the water scene, head to the Shark Reef Aquarium featuring its tunnel-shaped walk-throughs and a stingray petting area.

The Mirage Hotel and Casino

Address: 3400 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109

It appears the Legislature is headed for another special session to try to settle some complicated issues. Reporter cartoon/Frank Shiers

Lawmakers brace for overtime in Olympia | The Petri Dish

The countdown to special session is underway.

Truthfully, it’s been going on for awhile among those in the fraternity of lawmakers, lobbyists and legislative staff toiling in the Capitol. They’re all used to not finishing on time – which this year means by Sunday, April 23 – and a few don’t know any other way.

The special session will be here soon. Just depends on what day Gov. Jay Inslee decides he wants to kick it off.

Who or what is to blame this year? There are plenty of perspectives.

It’s the House Democrats fault: They are the majority. They passed a $44.9 billion two-year budget. It relies on $3 billion more in taxes. House leaders refuse to vote on their package of new capital gains and carbon taxes, and higher business taxes. They say the votes are there but it’s a waste of time to cast them since the package is D.O.A. in the Senate. Republicans say pass the tax bill then we’ll negotiate.

It’s the Senate Republicans fault: They are in control. They’ve steadfastly refused to seriously negotiate until House Democrats vote on their tax bill. They know it has no chance of success in the Senate yet are determined to stand their ground. They say they took the hard vote when they approved a new statewide property tax in their $43.3 billion budget. They insist House Democrats take the hard vote, too. That’s not expected to happen.

It’s the Supreme Court’s fault: Justices are demanding the Legislature fix an unconstitutional public school funding system and pay the full cost of a basic education of its students. They’ve set a deadline and are imposing a $100,000-a-day fine to keep up the pressure on lawmakers. Any solution is expensive, complicated and taking longer than anyone expected. Meanwhile, the high court’s decision in the Hirst case rewrote the rules on water and property rights. It’s driven a wedge between urban and rural lawmakers on how best to respond, if at all.

It’s the feds’ fault: Federal officials are monitoring safety and security improvements at Western State Hospital, the state’s largest psychiatric hospital. Millions of dollars in federal funding will be lost if those officials aren’t satisfied. Complying with all their demands is not cheap or easy. Lawmakers are debating the pace and path needed to prevent losing the money.

It’s the economy’s fault: Washington’s economy is one of the hottest of any state in the nation — even with layoffs at the Boeing Co. It’s producing a lot of money from existing sources of taxes. This is a political problem. It’s hard to argue for new and higher taxes when the budget reserves are bulging with a couple billion dollars. It’s hard for any lawmaker in either party to say no when the state is sitting on all this dough. It’s so much easier to say “Sorry, we can’t” in a recession — though everyone agrees they don’t want to see one of those for awhile.

It’s the governor’s fault: Gov. Jay Inslee isn’t to blame for the impasse between the House and Senate. Nor is he responsible for ending it. He is the state’s chief executive. He does share responsibility for ensuring compliance with those court dictates and federal demands. That means he’s no innocent bystander.

It’s Sound Transit’s fault: Isn’t everything Sound Transit’s fault?

It’s kind of our fault: Nearly every one of the 147 men and women serving in the Legislature are there by the choice of voters. None ran on a platform of compromise, concession and voting on whatever gets the Legislature out on time. Rather, some pledged to make wealthy individuals and big businesses shoulder a greater burden of those education and social service costs while others vowed to provide those same guys with greater tax relief. Some lawmakers campaigned on expanding the social safety net and broadening environmental protections while others promised to pursue reforms ensuring the neediest are served and any new rules aren’t too restrictive on the private sector. Conflict is an inevitable byproduct.

Just like special session.

Sweet Grape Tomatoes, Tiny Shells Baby Pasta

The Autumn light is here, soft, subtle, dissipated. It makes us feel at ease. Here in the south the first turning leaves begin to show. The glimpse of the new season. A prominent exhibition of fall tones foliage with the touch of colder winds. Naturally transforming in front of us. This phenomenon many still can’t explain, and yet we love it.

Baby Pasta | Au Petit Goût

Who doesn’t want to capture every detail and photograph it all. I admit it, I do. We feel so lucky to live in a place where seasons keep coming back, reminding us that this time we must dress up with heavier layers. When the days begin to shorten and our little ones are eagerly awaiting the festivities and celebrations October holds.

Some schools will be stopping for a week the first days in October. School fall break. We’ll do too. We are headed to the west coast. It seems that we just arrived from beautiful Seattle, where we spent a few days this summer. Fortunately, we are going back. Inspired by some of the recipes from the book Cooking for Baby, by Lisa Barnes, pasta of different shapes and sizes enhance the ingredients we choose to dress it with.

Small shells made of pasta, nicely grasp the flavors of grape tomatoes. These tiny shells do it all. Perfect for little fingers and mouths. Bite-sized deep red organic tomatoes are sweet, grape size, with a color that make them plainly irresistible. Melting in your mouth. This is a very basic baby pasta recipe and it takes no time to prepare. The combination of natural tomatoes, a swirl of olive oil, finished with freshly cut thyme (or any organic herb of your choice) is a great meal for our young ones (and us). This recipe is simply great year round.

You need:
1 cup uncooked tiny shell pasta
2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh, organic grape tomatoes
2 tbsp fresh thyme, basil (or any fresh herb of your choice)
A pinch of salt to taste

Combine the grape tomatoes, olive oil, herbs in a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Just when you’re ready to serve, bring a medium pot of water with a splash of olive oil to boil and add the pasta. Cook ‘al dente’ according to the direction on the package. Drain the pasta well and add to the bowl with the grape tomatoes. Toss and serve. 10 months and up

Enjoy it together!

Valerian -Seeds

Valerian -Seeds Image

Valerian is an eminently useful plant to have in the garden as well as the medicine cabinet.
It is an herbaceous perennial but although it slows down over winter, it rarely goes to ground.
The scent of the leaves, flowers and root is quite unique and not altogether unpleasant.
Valerian seeds itself well and the seeds are quite easy to strike. Once established it will spread modestly, via underground runners.
Dotted in and around the garden we have found that it improves the soil quality and once removed from an area of garden, the garden soil is much improved.
It must be remembered that Valerian root must be dried for at least one year before it is ready to use and only the root should be used, not the leaves.

25 fresh seeds $4.50

Degree of difficulty in germination.....3/10
(1 is easy - 10 very difficult) Seasonal

Seedlings and Potted Plants and Dried Herb often are available on our Nursery website

Your Price:AU$4.50

We wanted a mud flap/splash guard system to protect our 5th wheel RV we haul with a Ram dually. A few trips with the camper in tow convinced us it would be a big improvement to add some type of mud guard. The Rock Tamers look great on the truck and keep the camper from being bombarded with stones, mud, and dirty water. Great design, quality materials, and great looks. Super easy to remove if you want to use only while towing. Worthwhile investment.

North Carolina Auto Insurance Coverage

Every state requires you to have the right amount of car insurance to cover you, your family and your vehicle. Mandatory coverage and minimums are set by the state and it is illegal to drive on the streets and highways in the state of North Carolina with at least the required coverage.

Some states give you other options to cover potential damages and injuries through means other than auto insurance. North Carolina does not allow that optional coverage and you must obtain auto liability coverage through an insurance agency.

If you are a driver in the state of North Carolina you must carry the following liability insurance: $30,000 bodily injury for one person in one accident; $60,000 bodily injury or death coverage for two or more people in one accident; and $25,000 property damage coverage. These are the minimum levels required by your state and are the maximum amount that your insurance carrier will pay out in case of an accident. You may want to increase your limits to further protect you and your family.

Bodily injury liability will take care of the other people who were involved in the accident if you were at fault. It will pay their medical bills, compensation for lost wages, legal representation, rehabilitation, or nursing care, pain and suffering, and funeral expenses in the case of death. It does not cover you or any passengers in your vehicle.

Personal injury protection, or PIP, does take care of you, any passengers in your vehicle as well as you and member of your household who may be passengers in another vehicle that has been in an accident.

You should have property damage coverage in place to take care of the repair of the property that you damaged. It will also replace the property including any other personal items that may have been damaged as a result of this accident.

There are other areas of coverage that you may wish to add to your policy. If you have a vehicle that has been financed your lender will require you to carry collision coverage to protect their investment. If you have an older vehicle it usually doesn’t pay to carry collision but if you have a car that has substantial value, financed or otherwise, you should consider collision coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects the value and replacement of your car in the event that it is damaged as a result of anything other than an accident, for example if your car is stolen, someone breaks into it or it suffers flood damage.

And uninsured or under-insured motorist coverage protects you if you get hit by someone who does not have insurance or doesn’t have enough coverage or if you are the victim of a hit and run accident.

You must carry proof of insurance in case you are stopped by a police officer. If you cancel your insurance, your carrier will notify the DMV. If the DMV determines that you do not have car insurance, they will send out a verification form for you to fill out. If you do not provide proof of insurance you could have your license suspended until you secure insurance coverage.

    2002 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class Review

    This car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
    2002 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
    Advanced technology in a luxurious package.

    The Mercedes-Benz CL-Class features marvelous technology in an amazing package of leather, walnut and sleek sheetmetal. You could argue all day about the perfect car, but for those who want a luxurious yet athletic coupe, the CL-Class is as close to perfect as you're likely to come.

    Three models comprise the CL-Class: CL500 ($90,750) is powered by a 302-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 engine.

    CL600 ($118,950) has a 362-horsepower 5.8-liter V12 engine that saves fuel by running as a six-cylinder powerplant when cruising down the highway.

    CL55 ($103,500) is customized by AMG, a team of racers turned car tuners. Its hand-built 5.5-liter V8 produces 355 horsepower. This high-performance model grips the road with wide, low-profile tires mounted on special 18-inch wheels.

    Every CL comes with advanced technology such as active body control suspension, a navigation system and much more. New for the 2002 model year are a Max Cool setting for air conditioning systems and a third memory setting for the front seats.

    As if those three models don't provide sufficient exclusivity, Mercedes offers customized Designo versions ($9,300-$10,000) with striking paint, leather and wood combinations. A Sport Package ($4,900) is available for CL500 and CL600 and adds AMG monoblock wheels, high-performance front tires and a color-keyed AMG ground effects treatment.

    The Mercedes-Benz CL is a coupe with fluid, graceful lines and an aggressive stance that suggests an iron fist in a velvet glove.

    It used to be that full-size Mercedes coupes were basically two-door versions of the company's flagship sedans. No more. While this latest-generation CL is based on the S-Class sedan platform, its chassis is heavily revised for coupe duty. And it gets a unique body style.

    Doors on coupes are usually long, massive and unwieldy. To address this, Mercedes uses lightweight magnesium for the door frames, and mounts the doors on articulating hinges that slide them forward as they open. So ingress and egress is much easier than in comparable cars.

    Front seats slide up automatically when the seat back is folded forward, providing easier access to the back seat; that adds to the practicality of this coupe. Despite the rakish styling, the CL maintains adequate rear headroom, in part because of the low rear seat bottoms.

    Crisply lighted electro-luminescent gauges anchor the sweeping instrument panel. At the center of the dash is a wood-trimmed stack that includes the COMAND display, which manages the navigation system, stereo and cellular telephone systems. Steering wheel-mounted buttons control some COMAND functions. A small panel in the center of the speedometer displays some of the COMAND information.

    CL packs all of the features Mercedes buyers expect, such as multiple air bags, stability control, on-board navigation, and Tele-Aid emergency response. But it offers even more: Distronic adaptive cruise control ($2,875) uses radar to automatically maintain a safe distance from other cars. Standard Xenon lights are used for high beams as well as for the usual low beams.

    Keyless Go ($995) lets drivers open locked doors and start the car when carrying the card key, without getting the card out of their pocket. Parktronic ($1,015) warns of objects below the line of vision to ease parking maneuvers.

    Driving Impression
    The Mercedes-Benz CL-Class coupes offer very sharp, precise handling on twisting mountain roads. The lack of body roll in corners is uncanny and inspires confidence. The active suspension system keeps the CL on an even keel. One driver said he wished his racecar handled as well.

    Automatic Body Control system is an active, hydraulic suspension system that keeps the car level under acceleration, braking and cornering. Hydraulic cylinders at each corner support a conventional spring and damper, providing adjustments to ride height without intruding on the car's comfortable ride. Mercedes engineers say they could tune this system to lean into corners, but they thought drivers might find this stance unnerving.

    Charging through the twisties, the antilock brakes, traction control, and electronic stability control systems all work unobtrusively. The brakes are powerful enough, and the tires grippy enough, that extremely heavy braking is possible without triggering the ABS. We found the brakes easy to modulate and fade free after a lengthy blast through the mountains. The front brakes are ventilated and drilled for better cooling. Brake Assist comes standard to help reduce stopping distances in panic-braking situations, while the ABS allows the driver to maintain steering control.

    With the active suspension switched to normal mode, the CL's ride is downright plush, and handling is excellent. Switch to sport mode and the CL hones the edge on its handling, and ride suffers so little that no enthusiast is going to care. In sport mode there is less body roll and the car feels more responsive on turn-in. Side-to-side transitions in switchbacks are also better controlled in sport mode.

    On Interstates, the CL cruises serenely. Top speed is electronically limited 155 mph, according to Mercedes.

    The 2002 Mercedes-Benz CL600 is about 400 pounds lighter than the previous-generation (pre-2001) V12-powered coupe. Mercedes accomplished the diet by making the roof, hood, door panels and rear fenders from lightweight aluminum and using plastic for the trunk lid and front fenders. The V12-powered CL600 is about 200 pounds heavier than the V8-powered CL500 and CL55 models; and the CL600 does feel heavier than the CL500 when hustled along winding mountain roads. But while the difference is detectable, it is not intrusive, thanks to its excellent active suspension system.

    CL600 accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in less than 6.0 seconds, which edges both the Jaguar XK8 and Aston Martin DB7. CL500 accelerates from 0-60 in 6.1 seconds, while the CL55 AMG performs this in just 5.7 seconds, according to Mercedes-Benz.

    On the road, the CL500's aluminum 5.0-liter V8 is as smooth as you'd expect from a Mercedes and feels every bit as strong as its 302-horsepower rating. The V8 left us wondering why anyone would want the CL600's V12.

    The answer: more power. The V12 leaves the V8 feeling sluggish by comparison. The CL500 is by no means slow, but the CL600's V12 makes the car feel even faster and even smoother, thanks to the perfect primary balance inherent in V12 (and inline six-cylinder) engines.

    That means that when the CL600 switches off half its cylinders to save gas, the driver cannot tell, because when running on six cylinders, the CL600's V12 remains just as smooth. Mercedes-Benz's Active Cylinder Control system in its V12 is nothing like Cadillac's long-ago failed experiment with V-8-6-4, but it does switch off cylinders. When driving in the third, fourth or fifth gear below 3000 rpm and with the throttle only partly open, the cylinder-control system deactivates the driver's-side bank of cylinders. A computer adjusts ignition timing and throttle position to make the transition seamless. And it works: the driver cannot tell when there are six cylinders running. The benefit is a 20 percent improvement in fuel economy, which lets the CL600 match the CL500's EPA highway rating of 23 mpg.

    Acceleration comes in a steady rush with no perce.

    For the first time, the Mercedes-Benz CL-Class offers exterior styling to compete with the other exotic European models from Jaguar, Aston Martin and Porsche. And it does this in a uniquely Mercedes package of high technology, convenience, comfort and safety.

    2005 Jeep Liberty Review

    This car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
    2005 Jeep Liberty
    Rugged, outdoorsy alternative to the urban cute-ute.

    The Jeep Liberty offers a good balance for someone who enjoys the outdoors. Day in and day out, it takes the place of a car or wagon. The Liberty seats four comfortably and can carry up to five people and their gear. Fold the rear seats and it can move two people and some serious cargo. Turn off the pavement and it's able to negotiate most trails with confidence.

    True to Jeep heritage, the Liberty offers legitimate off-road capability. In this respect, it stands apart from the herd of compact sport-utility vehicles, few of which offer true off-road capability. The Liberty gives up some refinement and road agility to do this. On the road, it does not ride or handle as well as some of the other small SUVs. But the Liberty is among the best of the small sport-utilities for drivers who need serious off-road capability on the weekend yet need practicality and affordability during the week.

    For 2005, the Liberty gets a new engine and two new transmissions. With the addition of an advanced, 2.7-liter common-rail diesel engine, Jeep becomes the first midsize SUV available with a diesel engine in the U.S. The Diesel is backed by a five-speed overdrive automatic transmission. A new, six-speed manual transmission replaces the previous five-speed manual.

    The Liberty Renegade has seen the most change for 2005, having been fitted with a flatter hood, taller grille, off-road foglamps and taillamp guards. The Renegade now has functional rock rails, four skid plates, and new options, such as taller P235/0R16 all-terrain tires, a GPS navigation radio and an overhead light bar.

    The fresher appearance extends across all 2005 models. All receive a new front fascia, grille, foglamps fender flares, and body side-moldings. Interior refinements include relocated power window switches, new instrument panel cluster graphics, and improved seat comfort.

    The 2005 Jeep Liberty is available in three trim levels: Sport, Limited Edition, and Renegade. Each is offered with two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive (4WD).

    Three engines are available: a 2.4-liter inline-4, the 2.8-liter turbo diesel, and a 3.7-liter V6. The new diesel engine is available on both Sport and Limited models. The four-cylinder engine is only available with a six-speed manual gearbox. The V6 is available with a heavy-duty five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic that was revised last year for smoother, quieter operation. A five-speed automatic is standard on the diesel.

    Sport ($19,190) and Sport 4WD ($20,700) are entry-level models, but receive visual changes for 2005 that add the look of custom details. Both Sport and Sport 4WD come standard with the four-cylinder engine, six-speed manual transmission, cloth interior, wind-up windows, manually operated mirrors, and 16-inch tires on steel wheels. Command Trac, a part-time 4WD system, is standard, as is a six-speaker stereo with CD player. Air conditioning ($850) is optional, however. Power windows and other features can be added as options. The optional V6 is available with manual transmission ($850) or an automatic ($1,675). The Common Rail Diesel, or CRD, is available for the Sport 4x4 ($24,515).

    Limited Edition models offer upgraded interior amenties and a better grade of cloth upholstery. Limited ($23,525) and Limited 4WD ($25,035) come standard with the V6 engine and automatic transmission. Air conditioning is standard. Limited 4x4 is available with the diesel engine ($26,734).

    Leather is available as part of a big Customer Preferred option package ($1,576) that also includes a programmable overhead console, power seat adjusters, deep-tint glass, power heated side mirrors, a security group, and an AM/FM/cassette/CD stereo with steering-wheel-mounted audio controls and Infinity speakers.

    On 4WD Limited models, the same package ($1,690) includes Jeep's SelecTrac full-time four-wheel drive. The diesel version includes a bigger battery, P225/75 tires, 6x7-inch aluminum wheels, four-wheel antilock brakes, and an engine block heater. Other options include the Trailer Tow Group ($285), a Trac-Loc locking rear differential ($285), power sunroof ($700) and Sirius satellite digital radio ($195). While the tire pressure monitor and simple warning signal are standard, a roof-mounted tire pressure display, which shows the actual pressure at each wheel, is optional ($75).

    Renegade 2WD ($22,910) and 4WD ($24,520) models come standard with the 3.7-liter V6, six-speed manual transmission and Command-trac part-time 4WD system. Renegade comes standard with air conditioning; cruise control; tilt steering; 16-inch graphite-painted aluminum wheels; power windows, mirrors, and locks; illuminated keyless entry; side rails; and many other features. Renegade 4WD models include rugged tubular side rails and rock rails. Automatic transmission ($825) is optional. A premium package ($1,240) adds the automatic, power leather seats, and upgraded door trim panels, along with an overhead vehicle information center that allows the customer to program automatic locking, lighting, and other features.

    Side-impact airbags ($490) are optional on all Liberty models, and we highly recommend them. Serious 4WD adventurers may want the optional Off-Road Group ($765 for Sport, $520 for Limited), which includes skid plates for the front suspension, fuel tank and transfer case; a locking rear differential; heavy-duty engine cooling; P235/70R16 all-terrain tires; and tow hooks.

    With its seven-slat grille and round headlights, there's no question the Liberty looks like a Jeep.

    The Liberty's body is tall, providing the driver with a commanding view of the terrain ahead. In terms of exterior dimensions, the Liberty fits between the Jeep Wrangler and Grand Cherokee. With an overall length of 174.4 inches, the Jeep Liberty is slightly longer than the Ford Escape. It's longer than the Wrangler, but significantly shorter and lighter than the Grand Cherokee.

    2005 Liberty Sport models get a new body-color grille, provisions for optional fog lamps, and higher turn lamp locations for more protection from road debris. The front bumper runs across the bottom of the grill with a twin-tube design.

    Renegade appeals to a slightly different type of buyer than the basic Sport and more sophisticated Limited models. A flatter hood complements the traditional round Jeep headlimps for a distinctive Jeep appearance. A new body-color grille is part of the re-styling for 2005, as are large freestanding fog lamps with black bezels, and a new sill to protect the body sides from road blast. Tow hooks and a bright silver metallic applique across the new molded-in color front fascia are standard features. Bolted flares are also molded-in color for more durability and have chrome-plated attachment details. A new luggage side rack with beefieer molded-in color end pieces, and a brushed silver metallic tubular side rail combine to suggest a rugged appearance. The black off-road light bar, standard in prior years, is now an optional feature. Fender flares, combined with the off-road light bar and taillamp guards give the Renegade a look that stands apart from the Sport and Limited models.

    A neat feature on all models: Yanking hard on the outside door handle causes the glass hatch to swing up as the door itself is swinging out, which saves time and effort. Pulling on the handle with less force causes just the glass hatch to swing up. Also, the door swings open from the right, better for curbside pickups at the airport.

    The Jeep Liberty debuted as a 2002 model. 2003 brought enhancements aimed at improving on-road stability. 2004 brought upgrades in safety equipment, and in comfort and convenience options. Among them: Chrysler's Enhanced Accident Response System, which unlocks doors and turns on interior lights five seconds after an airbag deploys.

    The Jeep Liberty comes with a roomy interior that can accommodate five passengers and a generous amount of cargo, with 29 cubic feet of usable space behind the second row of seats. Sitting in the Liberty gives the driver a sense of spaciousness with 40.7 inches of headroom, best in class, according to Jeep. Door panels are scalloped out for elbow rests, and a grab handle is provided on the passenger's side of the dash. Sit in the Liberty, and the first thing you'll likely notice is that it feels tall in the saddle.

    The seats have been an issue in past models. Sport seats we tried in '04 felt firm in the middle, but the side bolsters were too mushy to provide much side support. For '05, they have been noticeably improved through the use of dual-density foam. Also, there's no seat-height adjustment. The side bolsters are still soft, a signal that the Liberty is set up more to absorb vibration than sling around corners. The cloth upholstery, with a diamond-plate inspired fabric, feels like it'll hold up well. The Renegade front seats are tailored with unique cloth center panels and vinyl bolsters. The front seats in the Limited are more comfortable. They are chair-like buckets, softer and more contoured than the seats in the Ford Escape.

    Getting in and out of the Liberty is more difficult than it is in some of the more carlike SUVs. The door openings are relatively narrow, the step-up height is a little higher, the seats have side bolsters to get past, and your feet must clear relatively high side sills. The grab handle, located on the A-pillar above the steering wheel, is not in the perfect position to help shorter people swing inside.

    The Liberty's rear seats are comfortable, capable of holding three people. Two adults should be happy here. There is even more rear headroom than in the front, and lots of space to slide your feet under the front seats, but knee room is limited. Sliding out of the back seat requires a bit of a stretch down, and your legs drag across the fender. So be sure to clean that area before sending any well-dressed guests back there.

    The Liberty offers a generous amount of cargo space behind the rear seats. Caesar the 160-pound mastiff was happy to ride behind the rear seats. Two full-size garbage cans fit side-by-side back there, a feat we haven't seen duplicated in many SUVs. Grocery-bag hooks and cargo tie-downs are provided to keep things from rolling around. An optional cargo organizer opens to a shelf with compartment dividers to keep packages in place, and can be folded flat when not in use.

    Fold the rear seats down and the Liberty offers a lot of cargo space (69.0 cubic feet), virtually the same as the Escape offers. Dropping the split rear seat is a one-hand operation in the Liberty; the rear seat bottom stays in place. The cargo floor isn't perfectly flat when the rear seats are folded down, however, and that's our biggest gripe with this vehicle. Nor are the rear seats readily removable as they are in the RAV4. Also, removing the rear headrests requires pressing two buttons at once to release them.

    Overall, the interior presents a round motif that looks contemporary, with round door handles, round instruments, round air inlets, a round horn pad. Textures and finishes are nicely done. Big gauges use black-on-beige graphics. The Limited adds attractive satin chrome highlights to the instrument panel and doors. We felt the interior on the Limited was nicely designed and executed with qualilty materials. The Renegade gets real brushed aluminum highlights on the instrument panel that give it a machined look consistent with the exterior theme.

    The manual shifter is on the tall side, but works well. The available leather-wrapped steering wheel is comfortable and features well-designed cruise controls.

    The accessory controls work well and intuitively. The power window switches are located on the center console, however, more awkward tha.

    Driving Impression
    The 3.7-liter V6 works well with the automatic transmission, delivering good reponse. The V6 is rated at 210 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque. Fuel economy is EPA-rated 16/22 City/Highway mpg with the manual, 17/21 mpg with the automatic.

    The 2.4-liter twin-cam four-cylinder engine comes standard on the Sport model, and is only available with the five-speed manual gearbox. We found the four-cylinder with manual transmission to be a smooth combination, though we suspect it may struggle at higher elevations. Besides the lower initial cost, the 150-horsepower four-cylinder gets 20/24 mpg.

    We've also had the opportunity to drive a 2005 Liberty with the new 2.7 Turbo diesel. The engine is surprisingly satisfying, combining the horsepower of a V6 (160) with the torque of a V8 (295 pound-feet) and the mileage of a four-cylinder. During a recent week of testing, we averaged about 21 mpg, including a fair amount of time offroad in low range. On the highway, the diesel Liberty becomes an easy cruiser, showing just 2000 rpm on the tach at 70 mph. Our highway mileage was close to 24 mpg, some 30 percent better than the gas V6. The Diesel is rated to tow up to 5000 pounds with the optional hitch.

    The new diesel seems to suffer few of the tradeoffs associated with oil-burning engines of the past. There is practically no smoke, and very little noise or vibration. The technology is European, with a very high pressure fuel injection system that burns much more cleanly than earlier designs. There is no warm-up period before starting, because the glowplugs are electronicaly controlled. The turbocharger is an advanced design with variable-geometry vanes that delivers significant induction improvements at both low rpm and high rpm, and at high altitudes.

    The Diesel gets the stronger five-speed electronic automatic, which benefits from advanced logic. The transmission, depending on throttle input, can deliver two separate second-gear ratios, a lower ratio for quicker acceleration, a taller one for smooth downshifts.

    The Liberty doesn't ride as smoothly on the road as a Ford Escape, particularly over bumps and other irregularities where it bobbles a bit. Nor does it handle as well as the more car-like SUVs. Steering effort is relatively easy at low speeds for a 4x4, nice when parking. On the road, the steering is reasonably on-center, a benefit of its power-assisted rack-and-pinion design. But the long-travel off-road suspension, set up to absorb impact without being overly harsh, makes for lethargic transient response in lane-change maneuvers. That said, the Liberty rides reasonably well for a short-wheelbase 4x4. It doesn't beat the driver up as much as a Jeep Wrangler does. The wider tires of the Limited and Renegade models seem to offer more stability than the narrower tires of the Sport. We've found the Liberty handles winding Virginia backroads well and feels fine on the crowded freeways around Los Angeles.

    We've found the Liberty capable of handling fairly gnarly trails. We've crossed steep ditches and gullies, where its short front and rear overhangs paid off. Its tight turning radius is helpful where space is limited, something we discovered while weaving through a stand of tightly spaced trees. We clambered over big rocks and fallen trees and slowly forded boulder-strewn creeks with 18 inches of rushing water. (Jeep says it can handle 20 inches at 10 mph.) Its traction up steep, muddy banks was impressive, with no wheelspin.

    Keep in mind, however, that the Liberty is limited by just 6.4 inches of front ground clearance, about the same as a Subaru. Rocks will contact the skid plates, a sound we experienced although we suspect no harm was being done. Another aspect serious trailblazers should note is that the Liberty platform is less upgradeable than Jeep's other 4x4s, such as the Wrangler or Grand Cherokee. However, a locking rear differential is available as a factory.

    Jeep Liberty strikes a balance between off-road capability and on-road sophistication. It's a good choice for drivers who like to venture into the backcountry, but need comfort and practicality in a daily driver. A higher degree of off-highway capability separates the Liberty from other small SUVs. Though less agile on the road than the so-called cute-utes, the Liberty is superior once you leave the pavement.
