Heres A Tip
by JoAnn Derson Glassware will sparkle if you add a capful of bleach to the rinse water when handwashing dishes. When you take your pet to the sitter, measure out each meal into a plastic zipper-top bag. This way, the sitter doesnt have to remember how much to feed at each mealtime. Place individual fabric softener sheets into sneakers to keep them fresh between wearings. Baking savory bread? Try substituting vegetable broth for the water in your recipe. It adds a deeper element of flavor to the bread. Just use lowsodium broth, so you dont add too much salt to your bread. To bring out the natural sweetness of corn on the cob, try sprinkling a little bit of sugar in the pot after the water has come to a boil. You can remove berry stains from your fingers with lemon juice. Got berry juice on your tablecloth? Pour a generous amount of milk on the spot, let it soak for 15 minutes or more. Then soak in cold water with soap for an hour or more. Wash, rinse and dry. Soak raisins in cold water before chopping so that they wont stick to your knife. Use lined-up celery ribs to create a base for your roast. This way, the juices move around more and the roast never sticks to the pan. Keep a spray bottle of fullstrength white vinegar by your laundry area. Use it to spray the underarms of shirts that have deodorant stains on them.

As such, Air Pro offers the full spectrum of Carrier systems, covering a variety of client needs and budgets. Obviously, the quality of our equipment is important, he continues.

GMX Systems Solve Scale Build-up Problems

Does Your Water Heater Make Rumbling and Popping Noises? Hard Water May Be The Reason.

Why Choose GMX Instead of a Softener?


Simplicity: GMX requires no bulky tanks or drains, no electricity. Installation usually takes less than an hour and usually requires no plumbing. It is about the size of a shoebox, so it doesnt take up all your space. Maintenance Free: GMX requires no maintenance and no operating expense, it never needs to be repaired or replaced. Healthy: Because GMX uses no salt or chemical, it is safe for plants, animals, and humans, even those with high blood pressure and heart disease. Environmentally Safe: Because there is no back flushing, GMX is the only treatment for hard water that does not waste 1000s of gallons of water. GMX is safe for septic systems, even in areas that restrict discharge of softener brine into septic systems. Cost: Hard water costs you money in plumbing repairs, appliance replacement, and expensive household cleaners. Softeners cost three times as much as GMX and require constant maintenance. GMX saves you enough to pay for itself in one to two years.

An engineer friend discovered GMX as an alternative to saltsoftened water. We needed soft water and had no room for a traditional salt-softened system so we called Larry. Were picky about our laundry and of course our drinking water and weve been very happy with the water our GMX system delivers and its perfectly compatible with our solar water heater.

You & Your Child


Whether theyre ready for it or not, getting kids prepared for the school year doesnt have to be a lot of work. Here are some tips to help find the best deals on supplies and prepare them for the first day back: Tackle the school supply list early. Review everything you already have on hand, and then create a list of the materials your children need. Take advantage of back-to-school sales and coupons, and dont be afraid to shop online. A site like CouponHeaven.com consolidates thousands of online coupons and discounts in one easy-to-use place. You can find coupon codes for everything from clothing to pencils and folders. Exercise their brains. Studies have shown brain drain frequently happens during the summer months, causing kids to have to relearn material when they return to school in the fall. If you havent encouraged your children to keep their brains active with reading, mind puzzles and other fun mental exercises this summer, start now to help them get a jumpstart. Plan social activities. Its been a long summer, and your children have plenty of stories to share with their friends. Help ease kids into the school year in by organizing social activities with your childrens fellow classmates. Set a school day schedule. Start waking the family up earlier in the mornings especially if you have older children who like to sleep in. Establishing a school day schedule before the year starts will help everyone manage the first day rush and chaos with less stress and anxiety. Before you know it, youll be packing lunch boxes and backpacks and kissing your children goodbye as they board the bus or enter the school building. But youll know that youve done everything you can to prepare them well for the first day back at school.

Tech Talk
Gone are the days when back-to-school shopping meant only buying new notebooks and backpacks. For most high school and college students, some form of technology is on the must-have list. With so many options, its important for parents to shop smart and choose the tools that will really meet their students needs. Shopping Tips Do your homework. No matter what electronic device youre looking into, make sure it will do what you need it to do. When shopping for a laptop or notebook computer: Check the processor speed. A good laptop should have a speed of at least 1 gigahertz (GHz). Look for RAM. RAM, short for random access memory, is what laptops use to store temporary data. The more RAM, the less time it takes to get information, and you can do more tasks at one time. Compare hard drives. The storage capacity of a hard drive is measured in gigabytes (GB), and youll find laptops that range from 40 GB to 500 GB. Get as large a drive as you can afford. Do a reality check. Sure, students may want the newest gadget out there, but will it

really meet their needs? eReaders and tablets are popular ways to get regular books but will you be able to get the required textbooks on these devices? Do some research before deciding. Get a realistic wireless plan. Teens spend more time using their cell phones than just about any other age group. Make sure your data plan will cover their needs. With every electronics purchase you plan, ask yourself what else you need to budget for. Does the laptop need software? Is your college students apartment set up for wireless Internet? If not, what else will you need? Little addons can add up, so be realistic about your shopping list.

Books of Note
Reviewed By Ealish Waddell Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children By Ransom Riggs (Quirk Books, $17.99) Growing up, Jacob loved to listen to the stories his grandfather told of his own youth. A refugee from war-torn Poland, he spent the war years in a pleasant orphanage on a remote island in Wales, surrounded by friends who could literally do wonders levitate, walk around invisible, lift boulders, talk to animals. He even has photographs of them, tiny portraits of solemn-eyed children doing very weird things. And he always insisted they were real. Then Jacobs grandfather dies suddenly and horribly, and in the aftermath, a traumatized Jacob begins to question what exactly is true. He is determined to see the legendary orphanage and its remaining residents for himself. But in Wales, he finds only a crumbling old pile atop a hill, an abandoned wreck destroyed by a bomb in the early days of the war. No one has lived there for a very long time. And then he hears voices ... Thus Jacob finally meets the peculiar children and discovers that the truth of his grandfathers tales is even stranger than he imagined. And it becomes clear that his new friends are in grave danger from a doom that Jacob has unwittingly led right to their door. Now, he may be the only one who can save them. The atmosphere of this novel is exquisitely weird, blending the musty oddness of an oldfashioned childrens tale with a contemporary energy, tinged with an underlying creepiness that gives the reader shivers. And, the vintage photographs that Jacob describes are sprinkled throughout the pages. It isnt difficult to believe that maybe, just maybe, they arent simply a story.

Horoscope
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A misunderstanding tests your temperament. Instead of blowing your top, take time for a pleasant diversion while things cool down. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A workplace problem could make the divine Bovine see red. But talk it out before you consider walking out. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You face a choice between ignoring your uneasy feelings about your relationship with that special person and demanding explanations. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A change youd been hoping for carries an unexpected complication. Stay the course, and things will work themselves out. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Aspects favor spending time with loved ones. On the job, new ideas are generally welcomed. Be ready to defend your choices. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Good news: That workplace problem is close to being resolved. Take time off to indulge. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Usually you are the most unflappable person around. But be ready to be thrown off-balance when Cupid takes aim. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Its not often when someone tries to sting the sharp-witted Scorpion. But it can happen. Continue to be skeptical. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your strong sense of self-esteem helps you serve as a role model. Your efforts pay off in an unexpected way. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Someone close considers revealing a painful secret. Withhold judgment. Instead, open your generous heart. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Your talents as a peacemaker are called upon once more as an old problem reemerges. Move cautiously. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your artistic side is enhanced with the reception given to your new project. Use this success as encouragement.

Landscaping Made Easy


By Mike Dooley When I go out on a design consultation I am often told I dont want gravel everywhere and I dont want grass. My response is, Then you want mulch? The answer is usually NO. I dont want mulch because it will blow away. Some of that is true, but gravel and grass have their own problems. If youve traveled to other parts of the country, youve noticed that the Southwest is alone in its negative attitude toward bark mulches. In the rest of the U.S., mulch is heralded as the answer to improve the soil, prevent weeds, hold in moisture and give the landscape a pleasant, organic look. After 30 years of installing mulches, here are my conclusions. Large bark nuggets will not blow away, but they look very coarse. (Theyre ugly.) Free city mulch is free but its extra ugly. Small bark nuggets look nice, but they can blow away. Shredded bark, especially cedar, will stay in place. The stringy nature of shredded mulch keeps it from blowing. It looks better than gravel, has lower maintenance than grass

Shredded bark mulch will improve the look of your landscape while retaining moisture.

and improves soil moisture. Finally, a word on heat retention. I laid a thermometer on my porch in the shade and the temperature was 84 degrees. Then I placed the thermometer on an area of mulch and the temperature was 98 degrees. Finally I put the thermometer on gravel and it couldnt give an accurate reading because it maxed out the thermometer at 125 degrees! Happy Gardening!

Handy at Home
By Samantha Mazzotta Small areas of stained or damaged carpet can be repaired yourself, without too much trouble. If you have some leftover scraps or sections from when the carpet was installed, you can replace that stained section with the exact same type of carpet, which usually creates the best match (as long as the rest of the carpet isnt too old, stained or faded, in which case you may want to consider replacing the entire carpet). If you dont have extra scraps, never fear take an unstained scrap of the carpet to a carpet specialty store to find the closest match. You may also need to replace the padding underneath the section, especially if the stain is a pet urine stain. If the stain is less than three inches in diameter, consider getting a carpet patch kit that includes a circular cutter. This will allow you to cut out the stain and then cut a patch that is exactly the same size and shape. If the stain is bigger, use a box cutter to trim the stained section plus an inch or two beyond the stain. A metal or wood ruler will help you make a straight cut. Cut away the padding in the section as well.

Repair small areas of stained or damaged carpet yourself with just a few tools.

Take the padding and carpet section to the carpet store to match both the color and type of carpet, as well as the correct type and thickness of the padding. Back at home, measure and trim the new padding and carpet to fit the cut-out section as closely as possible. Tack the padding in place with either a bit of carpet glue and/or staples. Double-check the fit of the new patch, then spread carpet glue over the bottom of the patch, as well as a light bead under the edges of the carpet surrounding the hole. Carefully press the carpet patch into place. Making sure no glue is on your fingers, rough up the carpet pile to hide the edges of the patch. Allow the glue to dry for about half a day, then vacuum.

Pet Corner
A nationwide survey of more than 5,000 veterinary hospitals was recently completed by the American Heartworm Society (AHS) to gauge the incidence of heartworm disease in the United States. The sad news: the survey documented heartworm in almost every county and parish in the country. If youre a pet owner, here are facts you should know about heartworm disease: 1. Blame the mosquito. Pets dont infect each other, they require a go-between: the mosquito. More than 20 species of mosquitoes are known to spread heartworm. And while mosquito repellents are a good idea, they dont take the place of monthly heartworm preventives. 2. Your pet cant escape the threat of heartworm disease. Heartworm incidence has been documented in all 50 states. Thats why the American Heartworm Society guidelines recommend that all U.S. pets be given heartworm preventive on a monthly basis, and dogs be tested annually for heartworm. 3. Cats get heartworm disease, too. Dogs are more susceptible than cats, but cats can become seriously ill from just a few worms. 4. Prevention beats the cure any day. Dogs with heartworm disease can and should be treated, but the cost is significant; treating a dog can cost more than $1,000 and dogs need careful monitoring and cage confinement for a month or more. Meanwhile, there is no effective medication for treating cats with heartworm disease. Only a veterinarian can ensure your pet is getting optimal protection from heartworm. For information, talk to your veterinarian or check out www.heartwormsociety.org.

Real Estate Corner


By Tom Bruno Have you ever taken a Sunday and paid a visit to any of our local builders to look at the model homes, even if you were not in the market? If you have, did you say, Wow, this is nice, when you walked in? (Assuming the home was a decorated model.) If you did, think of that experience when it is your turn to sell. Suppose the builder took all the dcor down, and all you saw was plain walls and carpet, and the usual light and plumbing fixtures? Itd look pretty basic. So, when you decide to sell, and you want your home to POP above all the other homes in your area, Id suggest you get a stager. If you still live in the home, a staging expert can help you de-clutter and use what you have to help the home show better. If your home is vacant, stagers may even provide you with furnishings and decorator items to use. Consider this. If your home for sale is vacant, would you rather sell within 30 to 60 days by spending some money to make it look good, or would you rather keep making payments for months, while it doesnt sell? I have had sellers tell me that they are not about to remove anything, and that is their prerogative to show their home as it is. But, the question remains. Do you want prospective buyers to look at your home, or your stuff? Buyers may not even come by if the pictures on the Internet/MLS look cluttered. Remember, they need to visualize their belongings in your house. It is up to you. But, I can tell you from experience what my buyers say after we leave cluttered houses. Its not pretty.

By Sam Struckhoff PICKS OF THE MONTH These hits are now available on DVD. Source Code (PG-13) After a mysterious bomber destroys a train full of innocent people, Capt. Coulter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) has to find out who did it and how before the next attack. The title refers to the top-secret sci-fi technology that is being used to place Stevens in the mind of one of the deceased passengers to relive the last eight minutes of the victims life until he can discover the bombers identity. I know. It sounds a little hokey. However, Source Code is an intense thriller that respects the strain of suspending that much disbelief, and by focusing on the action, the drama and the characters, it wields the goofy premise surprisingly well. Its not a perfect thriller. Some of the subplots feel like

Hollywood
By Tony Rizzo Weve received mail from devoted All My Children fans who dont know how theyll manage without the long-running soap. Cheer up! Word is that the wonderful Carol Burnett, a devoted AMC fan herself who appeared as Verla Grubbs in 83, 95 and 2005, will be in several episodes in September. In 83, Carol made the TV m o v i e Between F r i e n d s Carol Burnett with Elizabeth Taylor, and they arranged their shooting schedule around their favorite soaps (Carols was AMC; Lizs was General Hospital), and they watched them together. Liz appeared in GH leading up to and including the marriage of Luke and Laura, which was the highest-rated show in daytime TV history. Debbie Reynolds recent auction at the Paley Center for Media grossed a record $26 million, and she is now preparing for round two of the three-part auction extravaganza. The new exhibit will feature costumes, posters and props from Gone With the Wind, Showboat, The Yearling and John Hustons Moulin Rouge, as well as costumes worn by Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis and Doris Day as centerpieces. The Paley Center had so many visitors come to see the opening round of the auction that officials put most of the items for the second auction on display on July 23 for the early-2012 auction, adding items as they go along so people will come back again and again. Word is that the first auction greatly exceeded Debbies expectations.

A Message From The Owner: Brian Oertel

We Are The Experts in Rebuilding Parapets


Lets talk about parapet repairs. Many companies are using a fiberglass mesh with a new color coat. This method doesnt last much more than five years. Typically within two to three years, this type of rebuild will begin to have problems with de-laminating. The next method used is a stucco netting 20-gauge wire (chicken wire) with a new base coat. Better than the fiberglass mesh system, however, this system is likely what you already have. Adding more wire with a new base doesnt fix the problem. Also, some companies are using synthetic stucco without the waterproof membrane applied prior to it. When moisture sits on your parapets, it seeps through the synthetic stucco and lodges in your existing color coat. Therefore, blistering and peeling occur, taking the existing color coats and base coats with it, usually within two to five years. The method I use is 1/8" thick diamond coned metal lath, to hold the new base coat, which is approximately 3/8" to 1/2" thick, creating a new moisture barrier. The new base coat stops the moisture. The color coat lasts longer because it bonds best to a base coat on flat surfaces better than color to color. We rebuild all parapets, take care of all deteriorated areas, then re-color coat the entire home. Our parapet rebuilding system has a minimum of 95 percent success rate over an 11- to 14-year period. So, if you want the job done right the first time, call me. Ill take care of your homes stucco the right way.

in front of you with the shells on the bottom. Set an 8- to 10-inch piece of driftwood, a small branch or a dowel across the top. Tie the loose ends of the lines around the driftwood and knot, making sure that when the shells dangle, they will touch each other when a gentle breeze blows. Or, intersperse several more shells on the length of fishing line or twine. Knot each one evenly in place and end with the final shell dangling. Chic Decorator Shells Display larger and selfstanding shells on your windowsill, around your bathtub or in your garden. Conch shells make lovely mini planters for potting plants, while clam and abalone shells can make interesting soap dishes. Shell Jewelry String a variety of shells with small holes in them on a chain or string to wear around your neck. Shell Prints On a newspaper-covered table, apply acrylic paints with a sponge brush to the outside of a flat shell, such as a scallop shell.

By Jon Knudsen I hope Jemez Springs is high on your list of must-see places this year. Despite the tremendous acreage lost to fires in these mountains, Jemez Springs, as well as Jemez Pueblo, escaped fire damage. However, economic damage continues. I know many of us would like to help these folks. How about a day trip? Let me suggest some reasons to go there. Jemez State Monument. The Monument consists of the remains of Guisewa, an ancestral village of the present day Jemez Pueblo which is located in Walatowa, 12 miles south. The most striking feature is the church, Mission San Jos de los Jmez. Thought to have

Marias Interiors Adds Custom Touches to Your Home


By Robin Martinez New beginnings. August seems to symbolize new beginnings almost as much as the beginning of a new year in January. New clothes, new teachers, new schedules, new activities. Kids are often a whirlwind of excitement as a new school year begins. But why should kids have all the fun of new beginnings? August is an excellent time for a homeowner to experience his or her own new beginnings with a refurbishing of their homes interior. And by starting now, the changes will be in place in time for the holidays! Maria Baca is just the person to help with your new beginning. A licensed interior designer and owner of Marias Interiors, Maria has been sharing her expertise and personal style with Albuquerque-area homeowners for more than 35 years. Whether providing custom made window treatments for one room or suggesting design tips for an entire house, Marias knowledge and experience continue to make her a sought-after name in the local design community. Marias primary focus is creating quality, custom-made window treatments a craft she first began learning at the age of 12, originally under her mothers instruction. With an eye toward todays budget-conscious homeowners, Maria points out many cost-saving measures she can implement to still help a homeowner work toward their dream home. We can often remake a homes current draperies, says Maria, if they are clean and of good quality. Maria can incorporate new fabrics into an existing design, combine prints and solids, or add components to your existing draperies, such as sheers, valances or under draperies. Maria even suggests completing one room of the house at a time, as your budget allows. Some clients are even completing their homes bottom story now, with plans to refurbish the upper story bedrooms as time and finances allow. Since Maria has her own shop, she manufactures everything herself, passing the cost savings on to her customers. Each client receives a hand-produced item of outstanding quality, without having to compensate an outside manufacturer. Once someone has had custom draperies, he or she will never return to factory made, Maria states. Not limited to designs in a particular catalog, Marias expertise has given her the ability to produce a desired design based only upon a picture. She can even modify a chosen design to fit a particular window or area of the home.

Let Maria Baca, of Marias Interiors, help you choose the right styles and fabrics for your homes custom window treatments.

Among the many areas it covers are auditory short-term memory, spatial perception, visual scanning, eye-hand coordination and response time.

Lee-Sure Pools Will Build your Backyard Dream


By Mary Girsch-Bock Its no secret to Albuquerque residents that summer tends to run a bit longer than three months. During those hot summer months well into October, one of the most refreshing things you can do is to jump into a pool. Just a few minutes in the cool, clean water revitalizes both body and soul. But what if your pool is now a pile of leaves and cracked concrete? Or maybe theres no pool at all; just a large space in your back yard where you envision your pool. Whatever the case, take a little time to visit Lee-Sure Pools, Inc. Offering a full line of Viking fiberglass and custom Gunite pools, Lee-Sure has been serving New Mexico since 1976. Its never too late to enjoy your own pool, thanks to Albuquerques temperate climate, says Jake Poper. Jake, together with his brother Jeremy Poper, co-manage the business with their father, Lee Poper. Lee

When you snap, the sound isnt produced when the tip of your finger hits the tip of your thumb. The sound actually occurs when the tip of your finger makes contact with the base of your thumb. If youre like the average American man, over the course of 10 years youll shave off a full pound of whiskers. The vast nation of China is home to half of all the worlds domesticated pigs. You may be surprised to learn that President Abraham Lincolns son, Robert Todd Lincoln, was on the scene of three presidential assassinations. The first time was in 1865, when he was with his father after he was shot at Fords Theatre. In 1881, Lincoln, who was then serving as Secretary of War, arrived at Union Station shortly after President James A. Garfield had been shot. Finally, in 1901, he was at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, N.Y., when President William McKinley was assassinated. If youre planning a trip to Iowa anytime soon, you might want to schedule a stop in the town of Walcott. There you can visit the Iowa 80 Truckstop, the worlds largest. With a whopping 220 acres, the truck stop is 1.5 times the size of Disneyland. In a traditional Hungarian wedding ceremony, the bride wears a headdress made of woven wheat, thought to help ensure the couples fertility. Historians say that famed German composer Ludwig van Beethoven was quite particular about his coffee. It is claimed that he counted out exactly 60 coffee beans for each cup that he drank. The longest mountain range on Earth is located underwater in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, to be specific. Its nearly 25,000 miles long, and the only part of it that's above water is the nation of Iceland. If you are an American of a certain age, you likely remember the 1960s sitcom I Dream of Jeannie. The iconic bottle where the genie lived wasnt actually created for the show; the set dressers used a Jim Beam holiday decanter from 1964.

Home Run Construction


From Page 40

If you decide that Home Run Construction is right for you, Baillio will ask plenty of questions to make sure his vision for the job matches yours. Hell find out what you like and dont like, so that he ultimately delivers work that meets your needs and expectations. And once youve agreed on a price, he will do everything possible to stick to it. Hell even go shopping with you to find the right materials and supplies for the job. Ive found thats the best way to do it because that way I see what the customer likes I can write down the description or the item number, so once weve done that process they dont have to worry

about it anymore, he says. Once Baillio knows what you want, all you have to worry about is seeing the finished product. For no added cost, Baillio will even use his interior design skills to help you make better use of your space. I enjoy the design part, and taking something that doesnt function well and making it work better can really make a difference in your home, he says. Throughout the process, Home Run Construction will make sure youre an educated customer. By explaining to you the benefits, disadvantages and cost-effectiveness of every material you might use, Baillio will help you get the most value for your money. Id rather take the time and explain everything and let the customer ask plenty of questions, he says. never had to return a customers money, theyve never even had an issue. In addition, Air Pros 24/7 emergency technicians ensure that if your cooler goes out at 2 a.m. on a Sunday, youll never hear that they cant get to it until Tuesday. While evaporative cooling has long been the norm in our desert climate, Air Pro is helping more and more customers convert to refrigerated air. Miller is happy to dispel some of the myths associated with this conversion, the first and foremost being cost. Todays industry standards have increased efficiencies by over 30 percent, he says. Besides, even the best evaporative cooler will only make a

On the job site, Home Run Construction will continue to take care of you. Baillio wont cut corners to win a bid, nor will he take shortcuts on the job. He demonstrates by pointing out an on-the-job example: metal brackets hes installed to shore up 2x4s in a ceiling hes rebuilding. Once Im finished, that is something that no one is ever going to see, he says. But in three or four years, if we didnt use those brackets, their ceiling will be cracking. At the end of the day, Home Run Construction wont leave you dissatisfied. Im not going to leave a customer unhappy, Baillio says. I couldnt sleep well at night if I knew they were unhappy. Home Run Construction stands behind its work with a one-year warranty on parts and 20-degree difference their efficiency is entirely dependent on whats going on outside. Which means if its 95 degrees outside, inside air temperature will be around 75, ensuring the cooler has to run continually all day, every day, just to maintain that temperature. And thats only as long as the air is dry. Once the humidity increases during our summer monsoons, you may as well head to the home improvement store and buy some floor fans. In a nutshell, says Miller, what you get with a new Carrier heating and cooling system is, Total control over inside air temperature at the push of a button, regardless of what the weather outside is doing. That saves money in the long run.

Air Pro 26 years ago still own and operate the company today, says Miller. That longevity, stability and commitment by the owners to provide quality to our customers is the reason I think weve enjoyed such success. We truly hold ourselves to a higher standard. The kind of standard that also won the company Carriers 2010 Presidents Club Award for superior customer service and satisfaction. It all starts with a personal, on-site visit, during which Miller does a thorough inspection of the house and its current systems, explaining in detail to the customer exactly what needs to be done and why. Once scheduled, installation can take anywhere from one to three days. In addition to the warranties that come with Carriers equipment (10 year parts for A/C units, 20 for furnaces), Air Pro inspects their systems twice in the first year after installation and offers a 100-percent satisfaction guarantee. That means if youre unhappy and Air Pro cant make it right within one year, theyll refund your money. Miller says that, as far as he knows, not only has Air Pro

custom draperies, Maria has found that the materials last longer and homeowners take better care of the coverings, usually keeping the same treatments from five to ten years, or even longer. When the costs of custom coverings are prorated over the life of the product, custom window treatments are much more cost effective than one might assume.

By Larry Cox Q: I have an Ernest Borel wristwatch with a spiral design movement. It is from the 1940s or earlier. Is it worth anything? Ellen, Rio Rancho, N.M. A: The Ernest Borel watch company was founded in 1859. Some of the more interesting watches manufactured by Borel were the work of Adamir Debrot, a designer who was responsible for many of its innovative technical solutions and original time pieces throughout the 1940s,

50s and 60s. I suspect that the watch you have is one of Debrots designs. I also think it is what was marketed as a Cocktail Watch, which featured a kaleidoscope dial. That particular dial featured five different patterns, namely flower, sun, arrows, star and wheel. The Cocktail was launched in 1953 and soon became one of the most popular designs marketed by the Ernest Borel company. As with most collections, the value of a vintage watch depends on three major factors: rarity, condition and desirability. I contacted several dealers who specialize in vintage watches, and they seem to agree that your watch would retail in the $150 to $350 range. Q: I have a set of four 78rpm records of General Douglas MacArthurs Farewell Address to Congress in April 1951. Would these be considered collectible? M.F.E., via e-mail A: The MacArthur recordings were issued by several companies, including RCA Victor. Although your recordings are interesting, they are not necessarily rare. I contacted several serious collectors and they seemed to agree that, in excellent condition, the set of 78s would probably sell in the $25 to $35 range.

Southwest Gardener
By Curtis Smith Many New Mexico gardeners are reporting troubles with their tomatoes, chiles, cucumbers and melons this year. The problems range from small fruit to no fruit on the plants. There are many factors that may be contributing to the problems, but the most likely culprits are the high temperatures, low moisture and soil mineral problems. For tomatoes and chiles, the primary problem seems to be a combined effect of the factors mentioned above. Low water, coupled with high heat and, often, high mineral salt content has caused stunted plants and reduced fruit size. The cold weather slowed tomato plant development, and then the heat prevented proper development of the size of the fruit. Fruit size development results from water filling the cells that form the fruit. Heat and drought prevent adequate water from reaching the fruit, even when the plants are well irrigated. Protection from drying winds and some shade during the heat of the day can help retain water in the plants and allow better fruit development. Salts in the soil, water and amendments added to improve the soil compound the problem. Many people having problems mention adding manure or compost to the garden. In the presence of adequate rainfall, this is good. However, when water is inadequate to leach mineral salts

What Our Customers Say:

from the soil, plants and fruits have problems. The monsoon rains should help with this. However, take care that the rains do not create a water-logged situation, resulting in root diseases. Cucumbers and melons first produce staminate (male) flowers that only produce pollen. The female (pistillate) flowers are produced later. High temperatures and low moisture conditions can delay the formation of the female flowers. The heat will also interfere with proper pollination of tomatoes and other vegetables, so even though they flower, the flowers will fall away due to failure of the pollen to function properly, or due to the fact that the heat killed the pollen. Cooler temperatures that come with the monsoons should solve this problem, too. Curtis W. Smith, Ph.D., is an Extension Horticulture Specialist emeritus with New Mexico State Universitys Cooperative Extension Service.
