Some times, just powering off the phone, and restarting will restore prior settings.

So what exactly is the problem that you're trying to solve? The whole surface if the earth including its atmosphere is not sterile. I'd suggest it...

Once a year at beginning of AC season, and a couple of quick rinses during cottonwood season.

Bill George, it seems like cold, late springs are the new normal for north Missouri and Iowa. I heard it predicted several years ago at an...

So. I just did my absentee (two weeks early) ballot at my county election board. I asked the question about ballots of the dead. They confirmed...

Sorry Barry. I missed that you're in Canada. In the US I think almost every county has an office (an extension) to advise farmers and non-farmers...

Call your county extension agent. Thats what they are there for.

For heavy stuff I like to use these metal french cleats to save time: ...

Maybe Dawn dishwashing liquid?

That's the one I have. My tip is to add wing nuts on the end of those long threaded rods. When I'm handling them, you can whip the clamp around,...

I think thats why the exact wording of the laws of each state allowing early ballots has to be looked at carefully. We have an election coming up in...

I have to wonder if it can be cost effective. Maybe for high dollar items, but then the aerial pirates will have figured out how to snatch them out...

Jim I wouldn't use CA glue for this. CA is strong in tension, but has no shear strength. So a sharp rap, like falling on a corner, can more easily...

Sometimes, it's not that they think it's something dangerous, they just cant see through it on the x-ray, so it could be concealing something that is...

What a clever idea! Hats off to him for thinking of that.

Regarding ownership of a house and putting children on deeds. In our state, we have something called a Beneficiary Deed, which is effectively a...

My experience was of a bank closing access to a jointly owned safe deposit box after seeing the obit. On my first visit to the bank, they had me...

What I heard was that they couldn't get commercial users interested enough to support the business. I had one piece and thought it was fine to work...

Dave, I have been advised that bluebirds along with other birds need those birdhouses in the winter too, as a place of shelter. So I put some up...

Not a cold frame, but I have seen people use upside down containers and five-gal buckets, as small compost bins. The material is in contact with the...

Ballots are not numbered in my state. All the identifying info for validation is on the envelope. Once the envelope is validated and opened, the...

OP says no aprons: a box on four legs. I have thought about a similar project and can only think of using mechanical connections. Slab tables with...

But they have to know the voter is deceased, before the ballot could be rejected. There is no system in place requiring any person or office to...

My recollection is that they prefer the opening to face East, but I could be confusing birds. I had never ever seen any in my yard until January,...

Yes, I have bought some flowering plants and shrubs from them too. Their printed catalog is a great resource for identifying wildflowers.

I have a couple of patches of buffalo grass established in the back yard. It grows low and slow. It just looks kind of gray-ish green in indirect...

There is a paint with applicator sold in big box tile departments. When we had bath remodel, the tile guy used beige grout when it was supposed to...

As someone once told me, health care in the US is a business helping you live long enough to get as much of your money as they can.
