Books of Note
Reviewed By Larry Cox Skyjack: The Hunt for D.B. Cooper By Geoffrey Gray (Crown, $25) The D.B. Cooper caper is one of the most baffling mysteries in American history. A man calling himself D.B. Cooper purchased a $20 oneway ticket from Portland, Ore., to Seattle in November 1971. Shortly after takeoff, he settled back in Seat 18C, lit a Raleigh cigarette and passed a note to the stewardess that he had a bomb in his briefcase. He showed the flight attendant a tangle of wires and what could have been a bomb, then demanded $200,000 and several parachutes. Later, the man leaped from the jet with more than 20 pounds of cash strapped to his body and was never seen again alive or dead. D.B. Cooper has become the stuff of folklore. Bars throughout the Pacific Northwest mark the anniversary with look-alike contests, and treasure hunters scour the woods in Washington in attempts to find some of the elusive cash or an important clue. Seasoned crime writer Geoffrey Gray has written a riveting account of the case. Based on extensive interviews, an examination of public records and even the confidential FBI file on Cooper, Gray details for the first time what actually happened in the air on that cold November night and the epic manhunt that followed. This is an exceptional piece of true-crime reporting featuring a narrative that is as gripping as an edge-of-your-seat suspense novel.

Hard Water Problems? Call GMX for the Solution!


By Robin Martinez Weve all heard the age-old axiom if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. While that may be true in most cases, it isnt the case 100 percent of the time. GMX Magnetic Water Conditioning is one of the exceptions to the rule. This convenient, cost-effective solution for hard water problems uses magnetic fluid conditioning to treat hard water an environmentally friendly, salt- and chemical-free alternative to conventional water conditioning. Traditional water softeners add salt and potassium to water, a fact that concerned retired Air Force Adjutant General, Mel Montao. Concerned with the possible effects of ingesting these additives, Mel removed his existing water softening system and replaced it with a GMX conditioning system. I didnt want to continue putting foreign matter in my body simply by drinking a glass of water, says Mel. Now, in addition to enjoying an uncontaminated glass of water, Mel also enjoys the lack of buildup on his faucets and the lack of sediment in his water heater. In fact, Mel is such a fan of his GMX system, his daughter, Kathy, bought a system for her home, and Mels church purchased a system for their parsonage. Kathy Montao, Mels daughter and an ultrasound technician at UNM Hospital, knew of her fathers change from a traditional system to GMX and she watched with interest to see what would happen. Six months later, Kathy traded out her existing salt and potassium system in favor of GMX, too. She, like her father, is pleased with the lack of mineral deposits on her tubs, sinks and fixtures and has enjoyed regaining the space

Larry Brown of GMX International (far left) with a few of his many satisfied customers. These proud owners of new water treatment systems will be happy to share their experiences with you including hotter water, sudsier soap and less crusty buildup on fixtures. Pictured with Larry (left to right) are Hazel Rivers (holding a GMX magnet), Mel Montao and his grandson Steven Covington, Kathy Montao and her daughter Yenenesh, and Kevin McLay (inset). from the closet formerly used to house the old system. The cost savings have also proven substantial. In addition to the significant savings from no longer purchasing bags of salt, Kathy is also enjoying savings on a smaller scale through the use of less shampoo and soaps. With GMX, Ive found I get more suds using less soap! Because of their added sodium or potassium salts, traditional water softeners are not recommended for plants, pets and people with heart conditions or hypertension. Salt-based softening systems are not advised for swimming pools, hot tubs, boilers or septic systems. But GMX systems are! Larry and Ruthie Brown first learned about GMX Magnetic Water Conditioning almost 18 years ago from an enthusiastic hotel owner. Ruthie wanted to try it out, but Larry, a former researcher for Colorado State University, was skeptical. To test GMX, the Browns installed the system in their home and saw immediate changes. Softer, more manageable hair, easier cleaning and hotter water were the first noticeable differences. Larry is now marketing director for GMX and has installed its systems in homes, hotels, schools, fire stations, and government and apartment buildings for customers throughout New Mexico for the last 16 years. Kevin McLay, chief engineer for the Albuquerque Convention Center, heard a lot about GMX through trade shows and insiders in his profession. His interest piqued, Kevin investigated further and finally installed GMX in his own home. Its exactly as advertised, Kevin notes, a fact that doesnt hold true for all products. Im still amazed at how clean my stainless steel sink remains, says Kevin, noting how easy it is now to clean tubs, sinks and showers. He continues, When I wash my vehicle, the water dries clean and clear with no water spots! Hazel Rivers, a recent convert to GMX, is especially fond of the maintenance-free nature of the magnetic system. It was difficult for me to manage the big bags, says Hazel, noting the time involved in system maintenance when using her former traditional softening system. Hazel has also noticed she gets hot water faster than before no doubt because of the lack of sediment build up in her pipes and hot water heater. Larry made the installation easy for Hazel, just as he does for each of his customers. Homeowners are fully protected with a 90-day, money-back, satisfaction guarantee and a lifetime product warranty. Larry meets personally with interested customers to give them accurate expectations and price quotes and does most installations and water heater flushes himself, usually in under an hour. Kathy Montao was pleased that Larry was able to install her system the same day he met with her to simply discuss the benefits of converting to GMX. Do you have hard water? Signs of hard water include the crusty, white buildup around faucets; low water pressure; spotting on dishes, shower walls and sinks; low sudsing and a noisy, inefficient water heater. Calcium buildup can lead to clogged water pipes and corroded plumbing fixtures and appliances. GMX is the solution to your hard water concerns. See for yourself that GMX is everything its advertised to be. Call 1-800406-0469 for an information package or to schedule an appointment.

The Ghirardelli company, now renowned worldwide for the fine chocolate it produces, originally was a purveyor of mustard and spices. Frank Lloyd Wright was an unusually prolific architect. During the 70 years of his professional career, he designed a whopping 500 buildings. Those who keep track of such things say that a professional ballet dancer goes through about 130 pairs of toe shoes in a single year. The yo-yo became popular in the United States after it was marketed by Donald F. Duncan Sr., a businessman from Chicago, but he didnt invent the toy. In 1928, Duncan was on a business trip to San Francisco when he saw Philippine immigrant Pedro Flores, who had gotten financing to manufacture the yo-yos and had trademarked the name, demonstrating how to use the toy. Duncan realized that the toy had the potential to be a huge success, so he paid Flores $5,000 for all the rights. Incidentally, the name

yo-yo means come-come in the native language of the Philippines. If youre like the average American, showers account for nearly one-third of your home water use. In 1826, the eastern part of Texas declared its independence

from the United States, calling itself the Republic of Fredonia. In Nazi Germany, it was illegal to name a horse Adolph. The worlds most popular fruit is the banana. In the United States, people consume more bananas than apples and oranges put together.

Real Estate Corner


By Tom Bruno Real estate is not rocket science. In fact, in some respects selling real estate is simple. However, there is a big difference between simple and easy. Someone once told me that refinishing furniture is simple. You remove the old finish and stain, and apply new stain and finish. It is simple in concept. But I know first-hand it is not that easy. For an experienced refinisher, it probably is easy. Ultimately, a good Realtors greatest value comes from being able to guide you safely and efficiently through the sale or purchase process. The average homeowner may only purchase and sell three or four houses in a lifetime. In the 10 years I have been in real estate, I have personally sold around 200+ homes representing buyers and sellers. Since every sale is a bit different and the market is ever changing, each sale has held valuable lessons that I use to help me to guide future sellers and buyers. For a quick analogy, I feel you could compare our job to an airline pilot. Our job is to get you

where you want to be, quickly and safely. It is not always a smooth flight, but an experienced pilot knows how to chart a safe course and when to turn on the fasten safety belts sign. Todays real estate market has a lot of turbulence, whether you are selling or buying. For homeowners that need to sell, your Realtor can help you understand market trends and values in your area, and can offer marketing suggestions to make your home stand out in a down market.

good Realtor can help you find the right home and get the most for your money. You would never think to try and pilot the plane on your next trip, because there is too much at risk if you make a mistake. Similarly, whether you are selling or buying, you should have a good Realtor. There is too much at risk not to. Provided by Tom Bruno, Realtor with MarketPlace Homes.

How much homework should the average student have? The National PTA recommends 10 to 20 minutes per night in the first grade, and an additional 10 minutes per grade level thereafter. For example: 20 minutes for second grade, 120 minutes for 12th grade. Heres some practical advice for parents to help them make homework a positive experience. Give Them Time to Unwind Unwinding is an important preparation step. Your kids have been sitting and learning all day. Give them 15 to 20 minutes to blow off some steam and run around outside before they start their homework. Positive Reinforcement A positive attitude goes a long way. Shower children with positive reinforcement. For larger homework projects completed over several days, reward each step as well as the overall completion. Keep Snacks On Hand Remember hungry kids are distracted kids, so offer them a wholesome snack while they work. Get Help When Needed Feeling stumped with your childs homework question? Youre not the first parent to feel that way. There are some great resources to help parents help kids: www.dadmath.com www.scholastic.com/kids/ homework www.niehs.nih.gov/health/ scied/students/homework Set the Stage for Success Set aside a space or corner that is the designated space for completing homework. All family members should recognize that when someone is sitting in that area, they should not be disturbed unless they ask for help. And remember, homework is about practice it will take some children longer than others to get the hang of it. With the right preparations and materials on hand, you can ensure that homework time in your household is effective and enjoyable.

Touring New Mexico


By Jon Knudsen

The historic Victorian-style Hotel Eklund and the nations bestpreserved dinosaur tracks await your exploration of Clayton and northeastern New Mexico. (Photos by Jon Knudsen)

The northeastern part of New Mexico is one of the lesser known regions of our state. Yet it was the first part of New Mexico to be annexed by the U.S.A. That corner of the state above the Canadian River was actually part of the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. Thats a full generation before Stephen Kearny planted the Stars and Stripes in Santa Fe plaza.

It is indeed remote from Albuquerque. However, let me give you a few reasons to spend some time exploring this country north of the Canadian River. The Capulin National Monument. There are over 100 volcanoes between Raton and Clayton along highway 64/87. Capulin Volcano is not the biggest, but it is spectacular. It is the youngest volcano in the

region, being only 60,000 years old, and is supposedly the most perfectly formed cinder cone volcano in North America. A good road winds around its steep sides to a parking lot located on a low point of the rim. A short trail descends into the center of the volcano. There is also a one-mile trail that circles the rim. Both are paved. The rim trail has some steep inclines, but the views from the 8,182-foot summit are well worth the effort. Dinosaur Tracks. In 1982, a flood washed away the top layer of silt from the spillway at Clayton Lake State Park. What it exposed was a massive dinosaur tracksite with over 500 footprints preserved in the revealed sandstone. Dating from about 100 million years ago, it is considered one of the best preserved and most extensive tracksites in the United States. A walkway lets the visitor get up close and personal. The park also features camping, fishing and birdwatching. Claytons Hotel Eklund. If

October camping on the high plains is not your cup of tea, you might want to consider staying at the Hotel Eklund. This threestory stone structure has been completely remodeled, but still retains all the Victorian charm of its turn of the century construction. Downstairs contains a comfortable lobby, a nice restaurant, and a saloon. The saloons huge bar was apparently won in a poker game somewhere and installed here by owner Carl Eklund in 1894. The two bullet holes in the tin ceiling are a souvenir of President Hardings 1920 election. Other local attractions include a fine local museum and the grave of outlaw Black Jack Ketchum.

Matsco Experts Give Your Car the Extra Care it Needs


By Page Turner Among the many components that make up your familys car or truck, perhaps none is as intricate as its transmission. This interlocking cluster of gears, joints, axles and bands transfers the energy created in your vehicles engine to the wheels. Without a properly functioning transmission, your car is permanently stuck in neutral. Because of this complexity, transmission shops have emerged as a specialized field in automotive repair. To use a medical analogy, think of them the way youd compare a cardiologist or a neurologist to general practitioner. And if your car is the patient, its important to take it to the best specialist you can one with experience, certified expertise, and the capability to handle even the toughest transmission repair or service need. With winter driving conditions around the corner, and gas prices continuing to edge up, keeping your auto in top condition makes smart economic sense, says Jerry Miller, owner of Matsco Transmissions & Auto Repair How do you know that you may need the services of a specialist such as Matsco? In the same way your body lets you know its feeling bad, your car or truck can give off tell-tale signs of possible transmission trouble. Over-revving, slipping, late or early shifts, delayed transmission engagements, harsh shifts, engine hesitation, whining or growling, and oil stains on the ground under the engine all may be signs of transmission problems. These are not things that can be handled effectively by a general auto repair facility or a quickie oil change shop. They demand the services of an expert. Miller and his staff of trained transmission specialists have been servicing the cars and trucks of Albuquerque area drivers since 1976. Their collective experience totals more than 100 years. From their wellequipped, six-bay facility at 9517 Central Ave. NE at the corner of Moon, between Wyoming and Eubank Matsco has the resources to handle all kinds of transmission needs. Automatic or standard, foreign or domestic, RV or SUV, 2-wheel or 4-wheel drive, sedan, or super-duty or diesel pickup, they fix them all.

Whats going on in the hearing aid business? Has everyone gone crazy? It seems you cant open a newspaper or magazine, or even turn on the television, without being bombarded with ads for the latest, greatest, (and most expensive) new hearing aids. Everything seems to be changing in the hearing aid business, including prices which are going up, says George Bourne, a National Board for Hearing Instrument Sciences certified hearing aid dispenser, and owner of HearMart Hearing Aids, Inc. In my opinion, there are no hearing aids worth the outrageous prices some companies charge, he continues. And if the price doesnt scare you, their service should. Bourne has heard patients horror stories about big companies charging $2,000, $3,000, $4,000 or more for a hearing aid. If you get a price quote that high, thank the person at the company, then get up and walk out, he says. Getting service after spending that much money can prove to be even worse. If one of these big boys charges you an arm and a leg for a hearing device, then closes up shop and leaves town, youre stuck without service, Bourne says. Hearing aids are better now than they have ever been, and they typically cost between $500 and $1,800. No hearing aid is worth $5,000 or $6,000,

Dont Overpay for Hearing Aids, Service


even if it is a tax-deductible medical expense, he says. HearMart doesnt push expensive hearing aids, or even the smallest or the most complicated. Spending more money on a hearing aid doesnt make your hearing better, and a smaller device isnt necessarily the best for an individual patients situation. Instead, Bourne evaluates a patients hearing during a free, no-obligation initial consultation. Only then can the most appropriate device be determined, whether thats an analog one that simply amplifies sound, or a digital one that makes sounds clearer. HearMart services all hearing aids, no matter where you bought them. We clean, program, re-program and re-fit as best we can, and we dont charge unless the hearing aids need to be sent away for parts, Bourne says. We offer free lifetime maintenance and cleaning of all the devices we sell, as well as conduct home or assisted living facility visits. Our patients come first. After more than 25 years in the business of helping people hear better, Bourne knows that service is what makes or breaks a company. HearMarts excellent customer service means that most of its new customers come as referrals from current patients. Bourne knows that, because HearMart helps patients understand how to use, keep and care for their devices, they have high levels

Dont live with the isolation that comes with hearing loss. Trust the caring professionals at HearMart Hearing Aids: (from left) Hank Wendland, George Bourne and Michelle Melero. of customer satisfaction. Bourne offers the following advice when youre shopping for a hearing aid: Beware of companies that want you to trade in your perfectly good hearing devices to upgrade to the newest technology. They may even tell you that yours are too old to fix. Dont buy an off brand hearing device that is exclusive to a particular company. You should be able to have your hearing aids serviced anywhere, he says. Dont be pressured into buying today. Call around for a second or third opinion. Remember that youre not only buying a hearing aid youre buying a relationship with a company. If you feel like the salesperson is a little slick, leave. You should be comfortable with the service youre getting. HearMart is confident they have the best prices and service in the state and offer discounts to veterans and senior citizens from their location next to ABC Cake Shop at 1820 San Pedro Dr. NE, Suite 5. Its this combination of value, honesty and service that has grown HearMarts business over the past years.

You Vs. Flu: Be Prepared


Flu season is here, and there are simple, everyday actions you can take to help you and your family stay healthy. Wash your hands frequently with soap and water, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue or your sleeve when you sneeze, and avoid contact with those who are sick. But the most important thing you can do to prevent the flu is get vaccinated each year. Here are four things you may not know about flu vaccination. 1. Even if you were vaccinated last year or early in 2011, you still need to get a flu shot this fall. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that anyone ages six months or older should get a flu shot, including those who were vaccinated last season. The flu vaccines ability to help protect you declines from one year to the next. So even though the vaccine has the same ingredients as last season, you still need to get a flu shot. 2. You should get a flu shot as early as possible. It takes about two weeks for your body to develop full protection against flu symptoms. Seasonal flu can be unpredictable, and even healthy people can get seriously ill from the flu. For best protection, its important to get a flu shot as soon as it is available. 3. Flu vaccinations are easier than ever to obtain. A CDC report released in June 2011 shows that retail pharmacies are becoming an increasingly popular destination for flu vaccines. Flu vaccinations are available every day with no appointment necessary. 4. You may be able to get a flu shot at no cost. Many insurance plans cover flu vaccinations. With the expansion of health care coverage under the Affordable Care Act, many preventive health care services, including the seasonal flu vaccine, are available to even more individuals at no cost than ever before. For more information on the flu, call (888) FLU-SHOT.

Se l e c Tin g Th e pe r f e c T flooring for any room in your home isnt easy. c hances are a visit to your local flooring retailer might leave you wandering through a sea of samples, evaluating them for different materials, designs and overall durability and function. h ow do you choose from all of the options to find the right flooring that not only will provide comfort and durability but also complement your homes style all within your budget? To start, set a price range and begin evaluating the design and performance features of each option. if youre not planning to install the floor yourself, dont forget to factor in the installation costs, which are often in addition to the squarefoot cost of the floor itself. Selecting a Style Whatever flooring you

Modern Flooring
choose should blend effortlessly with your homes style, whether its Victorian, country, traditional, contemporary or eclectic. The size of the room where you plan to install the flooring is important for the overall design equation. Tiny tiles will be too busy in a large room, while a large-scale design will overwhelm a smaller space. While natural materials, such as slate, stone, bamboo and hardwood catch many homeowners attention, consider the variety that modern flooring technology has to offer. The latest advances in laminate flooring offer the best of both worlds fashionable colors and realistic textures, combined with unsurpassed durability, comfort, easy maintenance and affordability.

that will make your kitchen decor pop. Not sure where to get inspiration? Take a cue from the color experts and designers at Pratt & Lambert paints, who just released their 2012 color trends with a palette titled Echo that features classic, bold colors. Luxurious Lighting Shed new light on your kitchen by forgoing the fluorescent and replacing with stylish and functional pendant-style fixtures above task areas, such as the kitchen island or countertops. Chandeliers can be an ideal addition above table areas to create a focal point. Customized Cabinets No need to splurge on new cabinets when you can very easily customize your own. With just a few materials and hours, you can refinish or reface your kitchen cabinets. The process is quite simple, just remove the old finish by sanding the fronts of the cabinets and then either stain or repaint them to achieve your desired look. Or, replace wood panels with glass inserts for custom-looking doors that will show off your favorite dinnerware pieces. Update Appliance Appearances A stainless steel finish can instantly transform and upgrade the look of your kitchen. If purchasing new kitchen appliances isnt in the budget, a coat of paint may be just what the doctor ordered. Krylon offers a stainless steel spray paint with real flecks of metal to offer an authentic match for an upscale look. Remember to remove handles from the appliance and place masking tape over areas you do not want painted, and the end result is a new look that tailors to your kitchens color scheme. While it may seem like a daunting task at first, these easy, one-day kitchen pickeruppers can provide a refreshing expression that you and your family are sure to love.

Preventing injury. If your garage isnt organized, you risk injury to yourself and to your items. Piles can topple, breaking items, or someone can trip over items on the floor. Preventing water damage. If your belongings are sitting on a floor that retains moisture, the items in the box may be holding that moisture, as well. Additionally, many people

say it just feels better to have an organized garage in which everything is in its place. Here are a few tips to help you guide your family in the cleanup: Gather your supplies. The right tools make the job easier. Gather a variety of bins, and mark them for purging (garbage, donate, etc.) or sorting (electronics, holiday and other categories). Use a label maker with waterproof labels to help your team easily ID your bins. Begin by assigning chil-

dren easy tasks. Small children can go through toy boxes, selecting items that can be donated to charity. They can also go through their off-season clothing, trying on items to see what fits and what doesnt and placing items they dont like in the donate bin. Formulate your plan of attack. Start at one side of the garage and work toward the other side, sorting everything into the bins. These are not their permanent homes. Theyre simply your first step

of organization. Once you have your items in boxes, you can better see what youre keeping and think about the best organizing system for those items. When you are finished filling the bins with items you want to keep, place them on shelving units in a manner that suits your familys needs, for example, placing kids bins on the bottom shelves. When your task is done, admire your work and load your donation items into the car.

From simply adding a new faucet to completely gutting a bathroom, there are many ways to revitalize any home. h ere are the top trends to know: 1.

Todays Top 10 Bathroom Trends


From Page 34

Homeowners are looking for ways to decrease clutter and increase organization in their bathrooms. Vanity pullout shelves create storage with space-saving design. 5. Walk-In Showers: Many homeowners are replacing the conventional tub and shower with walk-in showers. Large glass doors and earth-tone tiles are being combined with luxury showerheads and water jets for a spa-like feel. 6. Satin Nickel Faucets: From 2009 to the end of 2010, the percent of NKBA designers who specified a satin nickel faucet in the bathroom rose from 45 percent to 57 percent. Brushed nickel faucets in the bathroom fell from 66 percent to 38 percent. 7. Recycled Flooring: With the increased focus on sustainable materials, tiles made from recycled ceramic, glass and metal are in. Look for companies that use recycled materials and sustainable manufacturing practices to create their tiles. 8. A Hint of Nature: Wood and stone are in-demand materials for bathroom design. Wooden soaking tubs and stone tiles and bathtubs retain heat well and add a natural feel to any bathroom. 9. Fine Furniture: The right vanity can transform a mediocre bathroom into a luxurious escape. Standard bathroom cabinets are being replaced by cabinetry with rich finishes and detailing. 10. Quartz Countertops: According to the NKBA, 54 percent of designers are incorporating quartz into their bathroom designs, compared with 48 percent in 2010. The lowmaintenance mineral boasts a higher durability against cracks and dents than marble. Whether you enjoy following the housing trends or prefer the tried-and-true styles, there is a variety of new products to add beauty, value and functionality to any home. (Courtesy: Family Features)

Clean Gutters Protect Home


By Mark J. Donovan ITs IMpo RTAn T To pe Rf o RM periodic gutter maintenance on your gutter system to keep it working smoothly. Clogged or damaged gutters offer little aid for channeling roof water away from a home, and they can lead to water damage to the fascia boards, the attic area and even your basement. n on-working gutters also can lead to erosion around the homes foundation. Gutter maintenance should be done at least twice a year. Inspect and clean your gutters in the spring and late fall, at a minimum. If windstorms and other weather conditions occur or if there are trees near your home, perform gutter maintenance even more regularly. Leaves, pine needles and twigs can clog gutters. Also, if you observe poor water flow through the downspouts or water pouring over the sides of the gutters, its a sure sign that you need to check the gutters. In addition to cleaning the gutters out, inspect them for any holes, cracks or loose mounting brackets that may have pulled away from the fascia board. Check the nails and screws that are holding the mounting brackets to the fascia boards to make sure they arent sticking out. Replace any damaged gutters if they are unrepairable. Also, check for any mold or mildew growth on the fascia boards, and remove it. In some cases, there is little choice but to remove the gutters temporarily to clean and repair any damage to the fascia boards. To check the downspouts, use a garden hose to spray water from the top of the gutter. In some cases, you may need to use a wire brush to push through or pull out any debris clogged in the downspout. You may have to disconnect the downspout from the gutter if a clog is particularly difficult. When performing gutter maintenance, make sure you use a quality ladder that is wellpositioned on the ground, and wear gloves and eye protection. To reduce the frequency of gutter maintenance, consider installing a gutter guard over the top of the gutters. Gutter guards prevent the infiltration of leaf and twig debris into the gutters. That said, gutter guards are not foolproof, so you still should inspect your gutters a couple of times a year. Leaf debris that breaks down can eventually work its way through the gutter screens and into the gutters themselves. Most gutter guards are very easy to install and are reasonably priced, so it may be worth investing in them to save yourself some time down the road.

Eliminate costly drafts around your homes windows


By Sharon Naylor Wh e N y o Ur WINDo W Se Al S arent a tight fit, they let cold air into your home and waste energy when your heating system has to work harder. That will cost you. So assess the seals on all of your windows, including bay windows, to see whether you have any problems to fix. A simple way to test each of your windows is to move your hand around the outside borders and middle pane edges to feel for cold spots or breezes. Some experts recommend slowly moving a lit candle or incense stick around the rims of your windows, but be sure to keep curtains and sheers clear of any flame or ember as you do so. If your candles flame flickers or your incense sticks smoke blows in a different direction, thats the site of a seal issue. What Causes Window Seal Failure? Most often, age is what causes window seals to fail. Weather seals installed several years ago may have dried out and become inefficient, or they may have become damaged. you may just have a buildup of dirt or leaves or a dead bug stuck in the window tracks, pushing the seal out of position. Cleaning Your Seals Vacuum your window tracks and seals regularly to remove debris, dirt and dead insects. Next, spray your window tracks with an all-purpose cleaner, and let it sit for a few minutes as it works on dirt and grime. Then take a specialized window track cleaning brush and scrub away all buildup. Wipe the tracks completely clean, and dry them with a paper towel before closing the window. Repairing Window Seals Some seals do need to be replaced for example, old seals that absorb water, causing mold issues, and completely dried-out or flat stripping. As a weekend project, you can repair old or damaged seals on your windows. To do this, know which type of seal youre replacing or repairing. Do you have weatherstrips, or is it caulk? Full and complete removal of either is essential to creating a complete seal with new product. Use a putty knife to remove any existing seal or caulk around the interior trim of the

Securing Seals to Save Money


window and clean the surface. If you are removing caulk and choose to re-caulk your window edges, use a caulking gun to apply new silicone or silicone-impregnated latex caulk, which is readily available at home improvement stores. If you prefer the look and process of weatherstripping over caulk, consider the two main types of weatherstripping used around windows: Self-stick tapes: Made of rubber, foam or vinyl, these strips are backed with adhesive covered with a peel-off backing. Simply cut the strips to length, peel the adhesive, place them and press them to secure them. Nail-on strips are ideal for wood windows because they dont depend on adhesives, which can lose their sticking power over time or in heat. Where gaps are large, use a vinyl tubular gasket or rubber tubing with a metal-reinforced flange for nailing.

crete or uneven paving? How secure are your doors and windows? Are your entrances and pathways well lit? Upgrading these areas will make your home safe for your family and help alleviate concerns for any potential buyers. Get Energy Efficient: Making energy-efficient additions and repairs helps reduce the homes operational costs. Improvements, such as added insulation and upgraded HVAC systems, could reduce cooling costs by up to 30 percent, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Home appliances account for about 20 percent of your utility bills, so efficient choices can cut your costs while helping the environment. What home improvements are not worth the money? Room additions can be costly and risky, especially if the space added is customized, such as a sauna or wine cellar, which may not appeal to future buyers. Marble countertops may look nice in the beginning, but the porous stone needs constant maintenance. Marble can be damaged by water, burned by hot pans and eroded by cleaning products. High-tech systems for the Internet or sound are a nice luxury, but because technology is continuously improving, updates will become outdated rather quickly.

items or add some new ones. Add colorful new lamps or lampshades, and bring in new pillows that have a graphic pattern and a pop of color. Be sure to update the walls with new artwork, but skip the expensive art prints. Create a designer look for less by shopping at home. Collect maps from your favorite travel destinations; photocopy a few pages from your favorite book; or have your family photos reprinted in black and white. Keep the look cohesive by painting all the picture frames the same color, and look for other wall accents in the same hue. Another way to change a boring room quickly and inexpensively is through the addition of a large wall mirror. Youd be amazed at the depth and beauty that mirrors can add. They have the innate ability to intensify light, add dimension and attract attention like no other decoration. They can open up any space and maximize light in the room.

Modern Flooring
From Page 28

Defined Durability When choosing flooring, consider how it will stand up to factors like direct sunlight, water spills, furniture scrapes, tracked-in dirt, ongoing foot traffic and cleaning. Natural materials, such as hardwood or ceramic tiles, can be more fragile than other options. Easy Installation Installation is another factor to keep in mind when youre

shopping for flooring, with hardwood and tile floors being among the most difficult to install. These generally require costly professional installation to look their best. Resilient and laminate flooring can easily and affordably be installed by a weekend DIYer. And because of its layered construction, these types of flooring will not expand or contract. They lie flat and stay flat by floating in place, eliminating the need for glue or nails.

Professional Coatings: Guaranteed Stucco Work


By Page Turner Workmanship thats how we stand above, says Brian Oertel of Professional Coatings, a 28-year old company specializing in complete stucco restorations of homes and yard walls, as well as new windows with coordinated installation. An approved applicator of all exterior coatings, Professional Coatings workmanship can be seen on thousands of homes in the Albuquerque metro area. Oertel, Professional Coatings owner, makes no bones about his work ethic. I was brought up in the construction industry to do the job right the first time, he says. That starts with the communication between Oertel and his clients. In talking with customers over the years, Oertel says he has learned that if a homeowner has been unhappy with a restucco job by another company in the past, it is because the contractor, a) did poor work; b) provided no one for the customer to communicate with; c) the company owner was unavailable; or, d) problems were not addressed.

stucco products and application methods. To begin with, there is traditional stucco, a cementbased, concrete-like product; and synthetic stucco, a 100-percent acrylic/elastomeric products. Synthetic stucco is a great product, says Oertel, but its not right for everyone, or each Business Profile application. Professional Coatings Its absolutely essen (505) 228-4568 tial that homeowners be aware of the potential pitfalls of stucco restoration.

Furthermore, many choices when it comes to

painting over your stucco is never a good idea because paint will eventually trap moisture and cause the color coat and outer surface of the base coat to weaken. There are certain products and application methods that we have learned dont work well, says Oertel. Professional Coatings prefers the oldfashioned method of applying stucco with a hand trowel. Though the process is labor intensive, hand troweling provides the tightest bond between the stucco and substrate in contrast to other methods such as spraying. These other methods also allow the thinning or stretching of stucco, a no-no in Oertels book. We exceed New Mexico state codes and manufacturers highest specifications, he explains. We do not cut corners, and we do not stretch the materials in any way. Professional Coatings specializes in complete stucco restorations of homes and yard walls with exterior wall space ranging in size from a minimum 1,500 square feet to well over

18,000 square feet. While many stucco applicators focus mainly on the bid, Oertel takes a consultative approach with clients. Unlike many others in the business, I wont just tell you what you want to hear, says Oertel. I propose what is needed for a lasting restucco. In determining the scope of work, Oertel discusses goals and visions with his clients. Why are you looking at restuccoing? Are you installing new windows? Are your homes parapets damaged? Is your stucco faded? What are the landscaping considerations; does the property contain numerous, high-moisture areas such as: flower beds, sprinklers and roof

drains? If so, these areas are important considerations in creating the work plan. Moisture can cause significant damage to the stucco. These kinds of questions help Oertel ascertain how Professional Coatings can best serve its customers. The next step is a thorough inspection of your home. The key to restoration is all the prep work, explains Oertel. A com-

plete walk-around and inspection of your home includes the examination of all the walls, roof lines, parapets and chimney caps. On a flat roof with parapets, Professional Coatings rebuilds all parapets, not just where it appears to be necessary. I want the parapets to last the life of the restucco. We have a minimum of a 98-percent success rate over a 15-year period with our parapet rebuild system, says Oertel. Likewise all the chimney caps are redone. Professional Coatings also

rebuilds around windows as needed. If new windows are being installed, Professional Coatings will rebuild around your new windows with a method that prevents shadow cracking. Heavy watering of newly restored areas ensures proper curing and is critical to the success of the restucco. This kind of careful attention to detail is the quality Oertel demands. Professional Coatings warranty in most cases is transferable to the next homeowner. According to Oertel, provided

there is proper drainage around the building, a restucco job should last 15 to 18 years or more if done properly. If youre in the market for a stucco restoration or new windows, Professional Coatings is the company for the job. We are competitively priced for the workmanship and the quality of products used, says Oertel. The job is done right the first time, guaranteed. Oertel will provide an on-site proposal with your consultation. Call 505228-4568.

At Axiom, The Job Isnt Done Unless It Is Done Right


By Melissa J. Sais Chris and Kathy ODonnell needed a hero. When problems with the $8,000 heating and cooling unit installed in their home became apparent, they needed help. An original erroneous load calculation led to a contractor installing an over-sized unit in their home. That unit had been overheating and using its emergency shut off mechanism consistently, and unknowingly, the ODonnells were in constant fire danger. More than a year into the effort to get the original contractor to take care of the problem, the ODonnells found Mario LoPrinzi, owner of Axiom Home Services. Mario came out of the blue and was the guy in the white hat for us, Chris ODonnell says. He did a calculation and contacted the manufacturer about the problems we were having. He got their rep involved and from there we got a lot of attention. He must be highly regarded with this particular manufacturer, Chris adds. He met with them, explained the danger and they replaced the unit for us and covered the installation by Mario. In the heating and cooling industry for 35 years, Mario holds an MM98 the highest certification for air conditioning and plumbing and is wellrespected in the mechanical community. While certified for both residential and commercial servicing, Axiom Home

Mario LoPrinzi, owner of Axiom Home Services, replaces a 30-year-old furnace (seen in the background) and air conditioning coil upgrading it with an efficient Trane system.

Services specializes in residential applications. Its services include the installation and repair of heating and cooling systems, ductless systems, tankless and standard water heaters, radiant heat, load calculations and duct work. Mario wants his customers to know that Axiom is the last word on their home care when it comes to heating and cooling. I am the first one on and the last one off of every job, he says. I am there until it is done, and it isnt done unless it is done right! Deeply disappointed by the number of homeowners who

106 Stores with Senior Discounts


By Matilda Charles Sometimes the key to getting a senior discount is just getting up the nerve to ask for one. If we get in the habit of asking for a discount every single time we spend money, think how much we could save. Someone on the Internet has compiled a long list of stores that give discounts to seniors. You can find that list by going to Google.com and searching for 106 Stores with Senior Discounts. Theres even a handy PDF version you can print out to make sure you dont miss anything! Categories include Restaurants, Retail and Apparel, Grocery, Travel, Activities and Entertainment, Cell Phones and Miscellaneous. Not only is the amount of the discount noted (either the percentage of the total purchase or a dollar amount), but the day of the week or date during the month, as well as the age it applies to. Some consider us seniors at the age of 50, while others go with age 55, 62 or 65. If youre a member of AARP, there are dozens of discounts built right into the membership. On the website, www.aarp.org,

click on Member Benefits, then Discounts. To name just two of the new discounts, Walgreens offers savings if you show your card, and Michaels has discounts on Tuesdays. There are 15,000 restaurant locations that offer discounts, and travel discounts can be found on car rentals, hotels, cruises and tours. Seniors Discounts, www.seniordiscounts.com, has more than 150,000 businesses listed that give discounts to seniors. There is a fee, however, either $7.95 or $12.95 per year, depending on the level of services you want. Start carrying your AARP card in your pocket! Remember to use the plastic one with the magnetic strip and bar code on the back.

Southwest Gardener
By Curtis Smith Tree-form cacti that are grown indoors can reach heights that require them to be pruned. Most cacti can be cut back. The lower portion will probably develop new branches, and the upper portion (the part that was cut off) may be induced to form roots. First and foremost, I advise caution. Handling a cactus can create a hazard for eyes and flesh. I would suggest you have large kitchen tongs (appropriate to the size of the cactus) available. It may also be wise to take some newspaper rolled diagonally to create a long, flexible tube that can be wrapped around the cactus stem to provide a handle. The spines may pierce the wrapped portion and spear the gardener, so use caution! Goggles or safety glasses (or at the very least, regular glasses) should provide eye protection. Take the cactus outside or to

Prune with care. Tree-form cacti can be pruned if they get too large for their space.

an indoor area where you can lay the pot and cactus on its side (not essential, but it makes the job easier). If indoors, lay a sheet of plastic under the pot and the region of the cactus where you will make the cut. Several thicknesses of newspaper may

also be put on top and/or under the plastic for additional protection for carpets and flooring, and to facilitate cleanup. Have a large knife and a saw handy. The inside of the cactus stem may be quite woody and require a pruning saw. An assistant will be useful to hold the cactus steady, with rolled newspapers and tongs, while it is being cut. Cut the required amount from the top of the plant. You may cut several segments, if necessary, to reduce the size of the original plant. Each segment that was cut from the original plant may then be set aside in a cool, shady location for a few days to allow the cut surface to close the wound. These pieces may then be put into a moist (not soggy), well-drained potting soil and allowed to form roots. Do not put them in direct sunlight, but in a bright location until roots form. As the soil dries, add water, but high moisture is not needed for most cacti. The base of the cactus, from which the top has been cut, may

be returned to its usual growing location and managed as before. If the base is healthy and receives adequate light, it should produce branches from one of the nodes (locations where the spines are produced). This may take months. Watering can be as before, and nutrients may be provided occasionally. Dont try to rush growth by fertilizing, but do provide some nutrients. Cacti are not heavy feeders. Curtis W. Smith, Ph.D., is an Extension Horticulture Specialist emeritus with New Mexico State Universitys Cooperative Extension Service.

Landscaping Made Easy


By Mike Dooley I hate gravel! Yes, I finally said it out loud. The Southwest is hooked on gravel and Im not sure why. Ground covers are good alternatives to gravel for part of your yard, if temporarily surrounded by finely shredded

mulch until the plants fill in. Ground covers include any plant under knee high that will cover the ground. Yes, they are more expensive to install than gravel. But they really add to the look of the garden. My favorite ground covers are as follows: Dwarf Plumbago. This is my new favorite because it is one of very few plants that will

bloom throughout the year. This plant has stunning cobalt blue flowers, but in winter it loses its leaves. Space 18 on center. Vinca Minor. A true vine that can be used in sun or shade. Bluish blooms plus its ability to spread to cover large areas make this evergreen a winner. Space two foot on center. Wall Germander. This sub-shrub has it all. Evergreen, drought tolerant, lavender blooms and insect resistance make this the perfect plant for those hard-to-plant small areas. Space 18 on center. English Ivy. This is the ground cover of the South. Evergreen, surprisingly drought tolerant and great for shade areas, this versatile plant can also grow in part sun if it is planted in early spring or fall so it has a chance to acclimate to the sun. Space two foot on center. Blue Chip Juniper. We spend more time removing juniper than planting it in my business usually, but this is one variety that I like. It stays under six inches tall, is very drought tolerant and evergreen, and one plant will spread to at least eight feet. Space one gallon plants two foot on center.

I had my home listed with a full service agent for six months and had very few showings. When that expired, I listed with MarketPlace Homes. I had five showings within the first week of my ad, and sold my home at the full list price! My MarketPlace Homes agent, Carol, was very professional and experienced. She went above and beyond in service and courtesy. I will recommend MarketPlace Homes to anyone selling their home. ~Nancy, of Albuquerque

Matsco Transmission
From Page 19

While handling transmission and major auto repairs is Matscos particular competency, wed rather head off problems before they occur, says Miller. To do so, he recommends a transmission service every 12 months or 15,000 miles to avoid the expense and inconvenience of major transmission or general auto repairs. This, along with regular oil changes, can go a long way to ensure that your vehicle gets the most effective fuel performance possible. This type of regular maintenance can also help spot wear and tear that might cause trouble down the road. Transmissions work hard, and if just one electronic sensor burns out, the entire transmission can be ruined in a very short time, says Miller. Regular maintenance enables us to prevent this in most cases. Using the coupon in this months New Mexico MarketPlace, this routine trans-

mission service and filter change is only $59.99, a 50-percent savings off the standard price. A total transmission flush is just another $59.99. Miller and the Matsco team are also experienced with all types of general auto repairs. Brakes, steering issues, engine coolant systems, tune-ups, hoses, oil changes and regular maintenance Matsco can do it all. Miller and the Matsco staff are certified by ASE (Automotive Service Excellence), ATSG (Automatic Transmission Service Group), and ATRA (Automatic Transmission Rebuilders Association). All repairs come with a warranty. Major repairs come with a one-year warranty. Transmissions come with a one, two-, three- or five-year warranty up to 100,000 miles. Towing is available for major repairs, as is financing under a broad array of programs. We all rely on our vehicles more than ever these days. At

Matsco, you can trust that your vehicles service and repair needs are in the hands of specialists. When you think of caring for your car, think of Matsco, Miller says. You cant afford not to keep your vehicle in the best possible shape.
