Jeremy Irvine plays Albert
in Steven Spielbergs latest,
War Horse.
PICKS OF THE MONTH
These hits are now available
on DVD.
War Horse (PG-13)
This latest offering from Steven
Spielberg starts with an English
farm boy named Albert (Jeremy
Irvine) being tasked with raising
and training a colt racing stallion
called Joey. When the two are
separated by World War I, the
horse braves an odyssey through
ravaged Europe, making an
impact in the lives of humans
wherever he goes.
The bulk of the story stays
with the horse. While the majes-
tic creature makes its way
through the horrors of war,
everything has that classic-
movie sheen to it. While were
supposed to feel for the horse, it
seems like the mountains of
human suffering are being
glossed over.
We Bought a Zoo (PG)
Sometimes, you just have to
take a big, crazy leap and give it
your all. That seems to be the
syrupy message at the heart of
this based-on-a-true story.
Benjamin (Matt Damon) is a let-
go newspaper reporter who
recently lost his wife. While
looking for a new home where
he can take his young daughter
and teen son, he finds a run-
down country estate that also
happens to be a run-down zoo in
need of new, dedicated owners.

The payroll tax reduction has
been extended under the Middle
Class Tax Relief and Job
Creation Act of 2012. Two per-
cent of your deduction for
Social Security (4.2 percent,
down from 6.2 percent) has
been picked up by the govern-
ment again, and that amount
will stay in your paycheck. If
youre self-employed, your por-
tion of self-employment tax
drops from 12.4 percent to 10.4
percent.
Workers who earn $50,000
would have seen $1,000 in their
paychecks over the year the
reduction has been in place.
Divided by 24 (assuming twice-
monthly pay periods) and that
would have come to around $40
per paycheck. If your annual
pay is $30,000, your savings
from the reduction is $50 per
month.
Oddly enough, a poll by the
National Foundation for Credit
Counseling showed that 66 per-
cent of workers didnt know
their paychecks were larger,
even though the extra amount
had been in paychecks for a
year.
The poll shows what the rest
of polled workers did with that
money:
Saved most of it: 3 percent
Caught up on past-due bills:
8 percent
Increased retirement contri-
butions: 4 percent
Bought something special: 1
percent
Paid off debt: 18 percent
Be aware of the additional
amount in your paycheck. If the
reduction isnt further extended
next year, that amount could
vanish from your income. Then
decide how to spend the extra
cash paying bills, saving or
something else.

The Expats
By Chris Pavone
(Crown Publishers, $26)
Kate Moores life in
Washington, D.C., might appear
normal, but she is hiding a secret
life working as an analyst and
former operative for the CIA.
When her husband is offered a
lucrative job in Luxembourg,
Kate wel-
comes the
opportu-
nity to
start fresh
and leave
b e h i n d
her dou-
ble life.
She rein-
vents her-
self as an expatriate, or expat,
and a stay-at-home mother, who
fills her days with household
chores, afternoon play dates,
and lunch or coffee with other
expat mothers.
Books of Note
Reviewed By Rose M. Croke
As her husband works
increasingly long hours at a job
Kate has never understood and
for an employer she doesnt
know, her isolation and loneli-
ness grows and doubts arise
about her marriage. When a
mysterious American couple
arrives in Luxembourg, Kate
becomes convinced that they are
not who they claim to be, and
she fears her past life has finally
caught up to her.
Kate uses her skills as a spy to
uncover the secrets of the people
who surround her, including her
own husband, who harbors the
biggest secret of all. Kate soon
finds herself mired in layers of
deceit so deep and multi-lay-
ered, they threaten her family,
her marriage and even her life.
Author Chris Pavone is firing
on all cylinders in his debut
novel. No one is who she or he
appears to be. The plot twists
come fast and furious.

The American Kennel Club
recently released its registra-
tion statistics for 2011, which
revealed that among registered
pets, the Labrador retriever
was the most popular breed in
the United States. In fact, the
Labrador retriever has held
that top spot for 21 years.
Here are the top 10 breeds
for 2011:
1. Labrador retriever
2. German shepherd
3. Beagle
4. Golden retriever
5. Yorkshire terrier
6. Bulldog
7. Boxer
8. Poodle
9. Dachshund
10. Rottweiler
Now, this may or may not
settle any arguments among
dog lovers. Unregistered dogs,
of course, arent on there, nor
are many adopted shelter pets.
But its a pretty good barome-
ter of the type of dogs, in terms
of size, behavior traits and
other elements, that currently
are popular among owners.
Breed popularity tends to
jump around: Bulldogs ranked
No. 19 a decade ago, but today
sit at No. 6.
At any rate, no matter what
breed you like best, take com-
fort in knowing that the most
popular dog for you is the one
you choose (or that chooses
you).
For 21 years, the Labrador
retriever has ranked as the
most popular dog in the U.S.,
according to the American
Kennel Club.

Q: We have a 12x8 plot
that has been used to grow
tomatoes. Each year, our crop
has seriously dwindled. Is
there something we can do to
restore our soil? Dale C.,
Rio Rancho
A: The decline of a crop in
the garden is often due to
growing the same crop in the
same soil for several years.
This may result in the buildup
of plant diseases targeting the
crop grown repeatedly, or to
the depletion of nutrients that
the crop needs.
Diseases may be obvious or
subtle in the expression of
their presence. Fungal and
some bacterial diseases may
express themselves as foliar
symptoms. Fungal diseases are
more common in New Mexico
and result in necrotic (dead)
spots in the leaves, or yellow-
ing, browning then dying of
the leaves. You may also
notice a constriction and dis-
coloration of the stem near the
soil line. There may be vascu-
lar diseases that block move-
ment of nutrients and water in
the plant stems. This is made
evident by wilting and dying
back of the leaves. If the plant
is infected late in the season,
the result may be decline of the
plant and poor yield. The
longer a crop is grown on the
same soil, the more the disease
organism accumulates and the
earlier the plant is affected.
Eventually, there may be no
harvest.
Each crop has certain nutri-
ents that it needs in greater
quantities than other crops.
This depletes the soil of the
specific nutrient needed. The
longer a crop is grown on the
same soil, the greater the
depletion of the nutrient and
the poorer the plant growth
and yield. Soil tests allow
determination of the availabil-
ity of nutrients in a soil.
In both cases disease
accumulation and nutrient
depletion crop rotation
reduces the problem. When
rotating crops, its important to
choose a crop that has distinctly
different nutrient requirements
and diseases than the preceding
crop. Tomatoes and fruit-pro-
ducing crops need higher levels
of phosphorous. Corn and some
crops utilize more nitrogen.
Root crops often need more
potassium. Closely related
crops, such as tomatoes and
chiles, can harbor the same dis-
eases, so they are not good rota-
tional crops. Beans and legumes
are good plants for crop rotation
because, although they do have
some potential disease prob-
lems, they also supply nitrogen
to the soil.
In a small garden like yours,
crop rotation is difficult, but
still important. You can replace
depleted nutrients, but accu-
mulation of disease will still
occur.

Warner Brothers plans to
remake A Star Is Born for the
third time, with Beyonce as the
rising young singer. Clint
East wood
will direct. In
1953, MGM
star Judy
Garland had
a nervous
breakdown,
and while she
was recuper-
ating, MGM
fired her. When she emerged from
the sanitarium, her husband, Sid
Luft, hired George Cukor to
direct her in A Star Is Born.
In l932, Cukor directed What
Price Hollywood? which starred
Constance Bennett as a waitress
who falls for a washed-up movie
director. In l937, the non-musical,
black and white A Star Is Born
was made with Janet Gaynor
and Fredric March, which
Cukor refused to direct because of
its similarity to What Price
Hollywood? But the chance to
direct a Technicolor musical with
Judy Garland proved irresistible.
The results yielded Golden Globe
Awards and Oscar nominations
for Judy Garland and James
Mason.
In the l976 remake, Barbra
Streisand wanted Elvis Presley
to star with her, but his manager,
Colonel Tom Parker, thought it
was too close to his own life at the
time, so she settled for Kris
Kristofferson and an all-new
soundtrack, including Evergreen,
which won Oscars for Streisand
and Paul Williams.
As in Streisands version, the
male lead is an alcoholic rock star
on his way down. For the remake,
Leonardo Di Caprio, Russell
Crowe and Hugh Jackson were
considered until a Warner exec
showed Tom Cruises scenes
from the upcoming film musical
Rock of Ages to Eastwood. The
script is being reworked to add the
interracial romance. Will it add
new dimensions, as it did in the
Whitney Houston/Kevin Costner
film The Bodyguard (92), or
overpower the classic story?

Top 10 Reasons to Choose
Affordable Service Inc. for
Your New Heil A/C System
Most people have experi-
enced that uneasy feeling
when they lose something
valuable: a ring, a phone,
money, even a credit card. But
how would you feel if you
woke up one day to find that
youd lost your entire library
of photos, videos or the digital
music library youd spent so
much time and money
creating? It could happen. In
fact, if you ask the experts, it
will happen. All computers
will fail eventually. So what
can you do about it?
Digital storage devices, or
hard drives, are one solution
that provides great value and
reliability. In a recent survey,
nearly 55 percent of con-
sumers said they do not back
up or protect the digital con-
tent on their computer because
either they dont know how or
think its too difficult. What
makes this statistic more inter-
esting is that nearly 60 percent
of the same survey participants
said they would miss their
computers and its contents
most if lost or stolen.
Today, the process of back-
ing up important data on your
computer is a simple plug-and-
play process, so why take the
risk?
There are a variety of inex-
pensive, reliable and easy-to-
use solutions that are available
to suit your lifestyle. For active
and mobile consumers,
portable drives are an ideal
solution, small enough to fit in
your pocket but large enough
to store and protect thousands
of photos, dozens of movies
and your entire music library.
External hard drives offer
larger capacities (up to 3 ter-
abytes), sit on your desk and
copy all your files for protec-
tion against computer crashes
and general failures.
People insure cars, homes
and lives. Using a digital stor-
age device can be a smart way
to protect all your precious
digital assets as well.

Landscaping
Made Easy
By Mike Dooley
Is it a small tree or a large
shrub? You may be surprised
to find out that there is no clear
definition of the main groups
of landscape plants.
Thats right. A shrub that
only gets 18 tall can be either
a groundcover or a shrub.
Verbena in south Texas is a
perennial, and in Albuquerque
its an annual. The same con-
fusion is also true of trees. A
lilac can grow to 8 or taller
and most of us would call it a
large shrub. But a Crape
Myrtle that gets the same
height is most often consid-
ered to be a tree.
I consider a plant a tree if it
can have the lower foliage
removed and a canopy devel-
oped to give the plant that
bonsai look. This can be
accomplished with proper
pruning techniques not
shearing the top off the plant.
Pruning videos can be found
on my website at www.dooley-
landscapedesigns.com/mainte-
nance.html. These videos are
designed to be very basic, so
that youre not overwhelmed.
The following is a list of
my favorite small trees/large
shrubs for our area, starting
with the smallest.

bush?

North African-Style Fish with
Couscous
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 red onions, sliced into thin
rings
2 tablespoons raisins
3 tablespoons salted, roasted
cashew nuts
1 red bell pepper, seeded and
sliced into thick rings
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded
and sliced into thick rings
1 green bell pepper, seeded and
sliced into thick rings
4 fresh, firm, ripe tomatoes,
blanched, peeled, seeded and
sliced into thick rounds
1-1/2 cups fish or vegetable
stock, mixed with 3/4 cup
water
1-1/2 pounds catfish, tilapia,
cod, or salmon fillets, cut into
1-1/4 inch cubes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley,
chopped
Couscous
2 cups quick-cooking couscous
2 cups vegetable stock or water,
boiling
2 teaspoons whipped butter
1/4 cup diced carrots
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup dried currants
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
1. Heat half the oil in a large,
heavy skillet, and saute half the
onions on medium to high heat
for 6 to 8 minutes, or until very
dark golden, stirring constantly.
Using a slotted spoon, remove
fried onions from the oil, place
on paper towels and set aside.
Fry raisins in the same hot oil
until they plump. Remove and
add to fried onions. Fry the
cashews for about one minute.
Remove and add to raisin-and-
onion mix.
2. Add the remaining oil to
the skillet and fry remaining half
of onions until golden. Add bell
peppers and continue cooking
for about 10 minutes, or until
peppers are soft. Add the toma-
toes and stock, partially cover
and cook for about 10 minutes
on medium to low heat.
3. Stir fish through the onion
and pepper mixture. Taste and
season with salt, pepper and
cayenne pepper. Continue sim-
mering for 10 minutes, or until
the fish is tender. Stir periodical-
ly to prevent sticking.
4. To make the couscous,
place the couscous grains in a
large, deep dish with a lid. Pour
in the boiling stock and stir in
butter, carrots, scallions, pine
nuts, dried currants and salt.
Cover and set aside to keep
warm for about 15 minutes so
the couscous can absorb liquid
and swell up. Fluff couscous by
raking through it with a fork.
5. Carefully pour the fish
mixture over the couscous and
gently fold it through to mix
thoroughly. Sprinkle with onion
rings, raisins, cashew nuts and
parsley. Serve immediately.
Serves 6.

22) Your willingness to be part of

been shut to you. Keep them open

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Congratulations. Youre really
getting things done to purr-fec-
tion. Dont forget to relax, though.
VIRGO (August 23 to
September 22) Sometimes sharp
words can leave painful scars. Be

gy levels make it easier for you to

Look to an adviser for guidance.
CAPRICORN (December
22 to January 19) Spiritual
aspects are strong. Take time to
reflect on the path youre on and
where you hope it will lead you.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) You could be
assuming far too many responsi-
bilities, whether its at work or in
personal matters. Dont get
weighed down by them.
PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) Youre getting closer
to your goals. And since nothing
succeeds like success (or the
promise thereof), dont be sur-
prised to find new supporters
swimming alongside you.

A Message From The Owner: Brian Oertel
This is Why You Shouldnt Paint Your Stucco!
By the law of physics, the only way to enhance/strengthen stucco is to fortify when mixing. Once cured the stucco is as strong
as it can get.
Painting traditional cement color coat(s) will eventually trap moisture. All stucco systems, regardless of finish coating will crack. A
residential stucco system typically has a concrete base over a block or framed structure. The stucco system endures constant structural and
ground movement, which causes cracking. No finish coating, concrete or elastomeric can completely endure this movement. Elastomeric
products are designed to allow elasticity, least likely to crack. However, if the wall faults past its elasticity, it will tear, allowing moisture
behind it. Also, elastomeric is moisture resistant. Not Water Proof! Therefore, with a heavy concentration of moisture, it will penetrate the
paint/coating. Elastomeric was originally designed for application over a new base coat.
Traditional cement color coats are designed to absorb moisture through its layer(s) to the base coats. Hence the need to evaporate quickly.
When paint/elastomeric are applied directly over cement color coat(s) and moisture gets behind it (which inevitably will happen), this causes
the moisture to be trapped between the paint/elastomeric and the base coat. During freeze and thaw cycles the underlying cement color
coat(s) and original base coats freeze, causing delamination. This compromises the entire existing stucco system! Once compromised, the
only sure remedy is to relath with a new base coat to eliminate the risk of the paint/elastomeric. A relath with a new base is typically
double the cost of a regular restucco! Call me for a comprehensive estimate. My focus is to preserve your existing stucco system.

A little black dress, a great
pair of jeans and a leather jack-
et some styles never go out
of fashion. Some elements of
home decor share that same
sense of timelessness, and none
more so than a simple floral
theme.
Flowers are always fashion-
able, stylish and on-trend, says
Dani Nichols, a trend-watcher
for MuralsYourWay.com home
decor website. Whether youre
looking for just the right touch
of elegance and life for pat-
terned upholstery or modern
floral murals to make an accent
wall pop, flowers are always
appropriate.
Nichols points to hot trends
in floral decor this spring and
summer:
Floral walls
Flowers have always
inspired paint makers to create
colors that pay homage to both
the boldness and the delicacy of
floral inspirations, Nichols
says. This year, paint manufac-
turers are offering a diverse
palette of floral-inspired colors,
from dusty roses and iris blues,
buttercup yellow and daisy
white, to frothy lilac and pop-
ping peony.
Floral wallpaper and floral
murals are also great ways to
incorporate flowers into a
rooms decor. A subtle pattern
of small, delicate flowers can
create a gentle, peaceful feeling
in a room. Or, go bold with an
accent mural that depicts a sin-
gle, showy bloom. You can find
Let Your Creativity Bloom at Home
Modern floral themes add style to your decor
a plethora of floral options
online at websites like Murals-
YourWay.com.
Sustainability
One of the most enjoyable
ways to decorate with florals
cut flowers is also one of the
most fleeting. Few beautiful
things are as short-lived as cut
flowers. This season, look for
cut flower designs to trend
toward sustainability, as every-
one looks for ways to get more
Modern floral patterns can make a fun, bold statement on your homes walls and furnishings.

From warm woods and cre-
ative colors to tailored textures,
interior designers and industry
experts predict 2012 will offer a
multitude of options for those
interested in giving their homes
a fresh look. Even better for
todays cost-conscious con-
sumers is that many of the
trends are easy and inexpensive.
The facts about furniture
According to Emmy Award-
winning home design expert,
author and TV/radio personality
Christopher Lowell, upholstered
furniture coverings are being
driven more by texture and less
by prints. Yesterdays bulky, sta-
tionary pit sofa will be replaced
by lower backs and seats along
with smaller footprint pieces
clustered into conversation
groups for more flexibility and
ease of interaction. Stacy Garcia
of Stacy Garcia Design Studio
sees a movement of woods from
very dark mahogany and espres-
so to lighter and mid-toned
woods, with raw, natural walnut,
cherry and white oak being
especially prevalent.
The right touch
According to Lori Dennis,
interior designer, author and
upcoming star of HGTVs new
show The Real Designing
Women, this years textures
and fabrics will include irides-
cent metallic woven within fab-
ric; strong patterns and bold
prints; modern floral; tailored
woven fabrics like tweed, her-
ringbone, plaid and hound-
stooth; velvet/velour, sumptu-
ous dupioni silk, and faux fur.
Natural fibers such as bamboo,
jute, eucalyptus, cotton, silk,
wool and cork will remain pop-
ular.
A splash of color
Deborah Wecselman of
DWD Inc. suggests starting with
neutral hues of taupe, beige,
cream, grey, black and white,
and then adding unexpected
pops of color with bold acces-
sories from bright yellow paint-
ings to royal blue vases. Dennis
echoes this vibrant color spec-
trum, with rich jewel tones like
emerald, amethyst, sapphire,
ruby, garnet and citrine along
with deep teal, fuchsia, honey-
suckle, coffee and gold.
Light up your life
According to Bradburn
design team manager Martin
Lucki, lighting options will
include linen shades with clean
tailored lines and a play toward
texture. Lamp bodies will be
made of carved reclaimed
woods deftly finished in soft,
neutral tones that showcase the
Hot Decor Trends for 2012

natural wood grain. Beverly
Hills designer Christopher
Grubb of Arch-Interiors Design
Group, who considers decora-
tive lighting the piece of jewel-
ry in a room, recommends
architectural sconces for apply-
ing makeup or shaving to avoid
the shadows cast by overhead
lighting.
Please tread on me
Kitchen designer/blogger
Susan Serra sees a renewed
interest in woven or knotted tex-
tures on rugs with back to
basics motifs that harken back
to simpler times. These rugs are
easy and cheerful to live with,
make a design statement, and
serve as interesting foundations
for rooms with upholstered or
casework furnishings most often
seen in neutral colors. Lowell
also sees a trend toward invest-
ment area rugs on tiled floors or
those resurfaced with wood or
faux wood veneers for better
wear and tear and a greater per-
ceived home value.
Decorating on a dime
According to artist/designer/
Design trends for the year include linen
lampshades on lamps made of reclaimed
wood (left). Also, large, conversation pit
sofas will be replaced with smaller pieces
(right) that can be clustered into groups.

Rain, snow and ultraviolet
rays can wreak havoc on a wood
deck. If left unchecked, deck
boards will begin to fade, cup,
warp and crack. Mold and
mildew growth is also a com-
mon problem on frequently wet
deck surfaces. Consequently, its
important to regularly weather-
proof a wood deck to keep it
looking beautiful and ensure its
structural integrity.
To restore and weatherproof a
deck, you first need to clean the
surface. A pressure washer with
a commercial deck-cleaning
solution works best but great
care needs to be taken when
using the washer. Hold the noz-
zle approximately 18 inches
away from the deck surface, and
always keep it moving to ensure
that you do not damage the
decking boards. Also, make sure
to clean the deck railings.
Power-washing a deck does
not always restore it to its origi-
nal color. Sometimes the boards
can still look a little dark. To
lighten them up, apply a com-
mercial deck wash and brighten-
ing solution to the surface using
a sprayer or long-handle stiff
brush. This type of solution typ-
ically includes bleach of some
percentage that will help lighten
the wood and give it a more
even color tone.
If youre weatherproofing on
a sunny day, first hose down the
deck with water before applying
the wash and brightening solu-
tion. After spraying on the solu-
tion, use a long-handle stiff
brush to scrub the deck and
remove any residual stains.
Then allow the solution to soak
into the boards for 15 to 20 min-
utes. Afterward, rinse off the
deck with a hose.
Once the deck has been
cleaned and had time to thor-
oughly dry, you can then begin
to weatherproof it in earnest by
applying a water sealer. A deck
waterproof sealer is specially
formulated to repel moisture and
protect the wood deck boards
from ultraviolet sunlight. Deck
waterproof sealers are available
in both clear and tinted shades.
Before applying a waterproof
sealer, make sure you check the
weather forecast first. Typically,
a deck sealer needs 24 to 48
hours of rain-free weather to dry
thoroughly.
There are a number of ways
you can apply a sealer to weath-
erproof a wood deck surface. I
use a roller and a 4-inch-wide
brush, as it is the most econom-
ical way to apply it. Initially, I
Restore, Weatherproof Your Deck
Tips for bringing a wood deck back to life
roll the deck sealer onto a small
section of the deck, and then use
the brush to work the sealer into
the wood.
I find this method works best,
as the deck sealer really gets
pushed into the wood grain.
Alternatively, you can use a
long-handle paint pad or buy or
rent a sprayer to initially apply
the sealer. As with the roller,
work in small sections at a time
when applying the sealer with
either of these two alternative
tools. Also, youll still need to
work the sealer into the wood
with a brush after initially apply-
ing it.
To apply a sealer to the deck
railings, a sprayer works the
fastest but you waste a lot of
sealer. The most cost-effective
way to weatherproof wood deck
railings is to apply the sealer
with a brush. Unfortunately, it is
a slow process. The water sealer
will hold up best with this
approach, however, and youll
save money because youll need
fewer cans of water sealer.

New Mexico water is too hard
to remain untreated. Although
you may leave your water untreat-
ed and get by, it will cost you far
more to live with the damage and
inefficiencies than to treat it with
GMX and prevent costly losses.
Just like planting a tree, the best
time to install hard water treat-
ment was when your home was
new the second best time is
today!
It takes a lot to come up with
$1,000 to $1,200 for home
improvements today. I wouldnt
ask anyone to make this invest-
ment if I didnt know with certain-
ty that it would return the invest-
ment several times over. says
Larry Brown, owner-operator of
R&L Enterprises, Inc., one of the
most experienced individuals in
the country for treating hard water
with magnetic technology.
I have the benefit of hindsight
in my own home, says Larry. I
spent about $1,000 on a GMX
system 18 years ago. It hasnt cost a
dime in operating expenses or
repair since, and it has saved me at
least $4,000. The de-scaling of
the water heater resulted in imme-
diate savings in electricity, approx-
imately $10 per month or $2,160
over the years. Larry still has the
same water heater! Laundry and
dish detergent expenditures were
cut in half. And as the father of
two daughters, at only $5 savings
per month each, Larry estimates
that the increased efficiency of
shampoo alone saved him $1,500!
And GMX is the least expen-
sive technology to own and oper-
ate, Larry says. If he had spent
$1,000 on a water softener instead
of GMX in 1993, Larry would
have purchased salt bags for 18
years, would have had to replace
either the resin bed or the soften-
er once, and it would soon be due
for replacement again. Larry
would have spent approximately
$4,500 by now. And if he had
rented a softener at $40 per
month, he would have spent a
whopping $8,640.
Larry adds, There are other
physical water treatment devices
showing up on the market. They
are decent, but I believe they are

where we were 18 years ago in
learning how to control New
Mexicos hard water. We now
know, from thousands of installa-
tions, that effective treatment
requires booster treatment after
the water heater to maintain con-
sistent benefits. I dont see any
other company recommending
that yet.
Among Larrys 6,000 cus-
tomers are Boyd and Linda
Kleefisch who had GMX installed
after having used salt softeners in
the past. As a healthcare executive
for more than 35 years, Boyd had
heard claims of using magnets for
therapeutic relief and didnt origi-
nally take the GMX assertions
seriously. But after becoming fed
up with the calcium deposits on
faucets and fixtures, he and his wife
determined to try GMX. Were
using less shampoo yet getting
more lather, we have less staining
in the sinks and toilets and the
dishwasher is operating more effi-
Because GMX requires no
chemicals, sodium or potassium, it
is safe for plants, pets and people
with health issues such as hyper-
tension. Daniel and Fleta Jones
purchased a GMX system, after
prior disappointing results with a
salt-based softener. With a house
full of plants, the Joneses were
seeking a safe, salt-free alternative.
Larry and his wife, Ruthie, are
business owners. Ruthie runs their
independent garden center while
Larry operates the GMX busi-
ness. Larry still does all the instal-
lations himself. Larrys dedication
to his customers includes post-
installation reviews. Every cus-
tomer deals directly with Larry.
He puts his reputation on the line
with each installation, a commit-
ment he takes seriously.
Larry is also intent upon edu-
cating his clients on water heater
maintenance. As minerals build
up in a heater, these deposits act
as an insulator, significantly
reducing efficiency, he explains.
Homeowners still get hot water,
but dont realize their water
heater is using 20 to 40 percent
more energy than it should to get
the water hot through the miner-
al layers. A proper water heater
flush requires changing to a larg-
er capacity flushing valve to allow
the large sediments to exit. We
are the only company I know of
that provides this service, says
Larry.

ciently, says Boyd. And the
Kleefisches are equally impressed
with the customer service theyve
received. Larry does what he says,
notes Boyd, who has recommend-
ed Larry and GMX to neighbors
and co-workers.
Greg Keney, a man with a
strong technical background, was
very thorough in researching
GMX before purchasing. He
wasnt interested in a traditional
softener, not wanting to add salt
or potassium to his water or to
his septic system. After chatting
with Larry, he decided that, with
the 90-day money-back guaran-
tee, he had nothing to lose. Since
installation, Greg has noticed
that his water heater operates
more quietly and the sinks and
toilets are easier to clean. And
the service couldnt be better,
remarks Greg, noting that Larry
has made several follow-up visits
to optimize the efficiency of the
GMX system.

The room you spend your
time in the one you relax in,
entertain in or run your business
from should be a reflection of
you, the owner. Filling your
space with custom-made pieces
will help make the room more
personal and unique.
You can spend hours search-
ing through store inventory and
still not find that special piece
that speaks to you or fits your
space properly, and if youre
shopping for stock furniture,
youll always get something
thats mass-produced. But many
stores carry furniture that can be
bought ready-made and die-cut
in prescribed sizes and designs.
Custom-made furniture is
unique and crafted to your spec-
ifications, however exacting.
Sometimes the need or desire
for custom pieces is practical;
maybe the area needs a specific
size or a match is needed for
another existing piece.
Awkward spaces require cus-
tomized pieces to fit comfort-
Finding Furniture that Fits
When considering new pieces, custom-made may be the way to go
ably. Personalization can also be
a compilation of hobbies, spe-
cial interests or individual
necessities. Current design and
fashion trends often factor into
what youll find available in the
stores.
As far as furniture goes,
says Michael Salguero, CEO
and co-founder of
CustomMade.com, the bed-
room (beds, dressers, lighting,
bedside tables) seems to be a
place where people want high
levels of customization. Those
Continued on page 35
levels of personalization can dif-
fer. There are items that are
more on the personalization
side, other items are what we
call blank-page customization.
This is where the customer and
artisan work together to co-cre-
ate something out of the clients
needs/wants/tastes.
The most common materials
used in North American furni-
ture are metal and wood; some
mass manufacturers may spe-
cialize in one specific type of
material. Other materials such as
plastic covers, metal hinges and
glass panels may be used as
accents. Custom designers will
also find ways to use specialty
woods; merge woods and tex-
tures; use carvings; and combine
wood and metal sculptures. If
you can dream it, a designer can
make it happen.
Salguero also explains that
custom pieces are more afford-
able than you would think.
Custom is certainly on par with
mid- to high-end retail stores.
Plus, you can get something
locally made and handcrafted to
your exact specifications.
Kitchen cabinetry is another
area where custom pieces often
come in handy. Stock cabinets,
doors and shelves will fit stand
sizes. Custom-manufactured
cabinets are made to the buyers
specific needs and dimensions.
This may be a perfect solution to
fit a corner or to accommodate
different sized appliances than
the original. Custom cabinets
also offer more options in terms
of shelving, accessibility and
storage spaces.
Unless youre purchasing a
stock piece from a floor display,
the time between ordering and
delivery is often no different,
even if you order a custom
piece. Since retailers often order
from the manufacturer, it may
take weeks until the customer
has the furniture in place in his
home. According to Salguero,
ordering custom furniture typi-
cally takes about four to eight

Turning your patio into luxu-
ry outdoor living space is easier
than you think. With some seri-
ous planning, new and afford-
able all-season materials, equip-
ment, furnishings and acces-
sories, you can convert that tired
concrete slab into an attractive
getaway, just steps out the back
door!
Its not a job for amateurs,
experts say, if you want to do
more than spruce up what you
have with some flowerpots or a
new chaise lounge. A real
makeover such as adding an
outdoor kitchen, new stone
flooring, an outdoor fireplace
and/or other upscale amenities
requires forethought and
detailed plans.
In addition to underground
utilities, rethinking seating
needs and/or redoing landscap-
ing, homeowners wanting to
upgrade outdoor living space
need to consider future expan-
sion or existing structures such
as a pool. Nothing is worse
than finding out a few years
after you spend thousands of
dollars on your patio that you
didnt leave enough room to
expand for additional seating, or
that part of the patio has to be
removed to install a pool or hot
tub because of site constraints.
Plan for future site amenities
even if you dont plan to build
them for some time, advises
architect Christopher Colby.
Typically, the construction
of these projects is not for the
weekend warrior. Items such as
gas piping for grills or fire pits
require the expertise of a
plumber. Lighting and electrical
outlets would require the expert-
ise of an electrician. Depending
on the code requirements,
inspections for such items may
be required by a licensed con-
tractor as well, he points out.
Some local municipalities also
may require site plans and/or
drawings.
While there is a lot of infor-
mation and do-it-yourself TV
shows out there to assist the
average homeowner with
designing outdoor space, there
are also a lot of pitfalls if you
choose to do it all on your own.
Contact an interior designer or
landscape architect, because it is
too easy and too costly to make
huge mistakes simply because
you didnt know better. In the
end, youll be happy you con-
sulted a team of skilled profes-
sionals.
A cosmetic upgrade can be as
little as a few hundred dollars,
but be prepared if youre doing

Enlist help of experts to do major remodels
Dreaming of an outdoor living space? While there are plenty
of DIY television shows to assist, you may want to enlist the
help of professionals especially when gas and electricity
are required.

any sort of contracting work
such as gas lines, electrical,
hauling or excavation. These
projects will price out just like a
home remodeling project.
Manufactured patio pavers
for example can cost as little as
a few dollars a square foot at
big-box supply stores to $15 to
$20 a square foot for higher-end
brick/stone pavers, notes
Colby. Typically, the most
expensive items will be related
to specialty items that require
infrastructure such as gas piping
and electricity. Usually associat-
ed with these installations are
the higher priced items such as
custom stainless steel grills and
other cooking equipment, fire
pits and torches. Basic outdoor
kitchen patios with manufac-
tured pavers or stamped con-
crete, such as a stainless grill set
in a masonry counter system can
start at $7,500 to $10,000
depending on styles and finish-
es. After that, the sky is the
limit!
Some higher-end patio
kitchens include wine coolers,
crisper draws for fruits and veg-
gies, trash compactors, built-in
icemakers, bars, cocktail carts
and blenders. These upscale
patios may have special heating
and cooling equipment
canopies, misters, gas-powered
tiki torches, fireplaces and even
outdoor television sets.
No matter where you live,
natural materials, such as stone,
weather the best, Colby
believes. Man-made materials
like brick and concrete work
well, too. Stainless steel is an
obvious choice for grills and
refrigerators. Woods that weath-
er well such as mahogany
and teak are good choices for
pergolas and decking, he points
out.
In climates prone to harsh
weather, homeowners should
remove and store away furni-
ture, cushions and any other
decorative items. The best way
to approach what materials to
use is to remember that they will
be exposed to the weather
24/7/365 and select only materi-
als that can withstand the test of
time, Colby says.

Whenever I tell people I am
an interior designer, invariably
they say, I know what I like,
but I am completely confused
about how to pull it all togeth-
er, or, Oh, one day when I can
afford to hire a designer, I will
call you. Creating a room that
feels designed isnt rocket sci-
ence. Its actually quite simple. I
am going to share with you my
1-2-3 rule for the basic design
of any room.
No. 1: Select a beautiful
color for the walls. Everyone
down deep inside knows what
colors he generally prefers. Take
inspiration from anywhere and
everything. It can come from the
color of a favorite shirt, your car
or the color of the sky at a par-
ticular time. My suggestion is
this: Whatever that color is,
select a pale, light version of it.
For example, if the color you
love is orange, consider using a
soft peach or light apricot color
for the walls. This will introduce
the color palette of your prefer-
ence into the room without over-
whelming it. Of course, any
woodwork or millwork in the
room can be painted in another
color. My favorite color for mill-
work is a soft white that is not
too stark or bright. As with most
things in life, the novelty of
painting a room in a color that is
too vibrant will wear away, and
youll be left with the desire to
repaint the room.
No. 2: Stick to two main
upholstery fabrics. The colors
and prints should be comple-
mentary. One fabric can be a
solid, whereas the other fabric
might take on a print, such as a
floral, plaid, animal spots or
stripes. If you like a simpler and
more tailored room, use the
solid on the principal upholstery
items, such as the sofa or a pair
of club chairs. The other printed
fabric can be used on smaller
chairs or benches. If you prefer a
bolder look, do the opposite; use
the printed fabric on the larger
Design Rules as Easy as 1-2-3
Choosing the right colors, adding personality make decorating easy
main upholstered items, and
keep the occasional pieces solid.
No. 3: Bring in up to three
other colors/prints/motifs to
the room. This is your opportu-
nity to personalize and jazz up
the style of a room. Select other
colors e.g., a stronger version
of the wall color that will
enhance and underline that orig-
inal color you loved. These
additional colors can be intro-
duced in pillows, rugs and
accessories. You also can spike
interest in a room by selecting a
motif that you repeat over and
over in different ways, colors
and sizes.
Following this simple 1-2-3
rule should take the mystery out
of designing a room. Creating a
successful room doesnt neces-
sarily mean that every item in
the room has to match. As a mat-
ter of fact, there is something to
be learned from slightly mis-
matched or quirky pairings. This
is what gives a room personali-
ty. Be confident, and select what
you really love. Your room will
shine with your personality and
style.
Bringing a spaces design together doesnt have to be difficult. Simply choose a wall color that
makes you happy, in subtle hues, and pair with a zing of color on accents.

Refinishing
Spring is a great time to
clean the outside of your
homes windows, if you dont
do them more frequently.
First, inspect all your
homes windows to make sure
theyre undamaged, including
screens. Next, remove screens
and place them on a clean,
sunny spot.
Take a look at the homes
windows from the inside.
Newer double-hung windows
can be unhooked and either
lifted out of the frame or
swung inward to access the
outside of the glass. Older
windows are sometimes held
in the frame by a thin strip of
wood, which should be care-
fully removed. Then the bot-
tom sash can be lifted out of
the frame. Being able to swing
out or remove the bottom sash
makes cleaning the outside of
upstairs windows easier and
much safer than climbing a
ladder to reach them.
To clean windows, brush
away loose dust and debris
first. Then fill a bucket with
warm water and mild deter-
gent. Place a waterproof liner
(like a tarp) underneath the
window to protect the floor
and walls. Dunk a clean
sponge in the soapy water and
wash the windowpanes,
repeating as necessary to
remove built-up dirt. Once the
window is clean, grab a lint-
free cloth, a chamois or some
newspaper. Dry the glass com-
pletely; for your final pass,
wipe back and forth, then
straight up and down, to mini-
mize streaks.
I usually start cleaning the
outside of windows first. It
gets the hard work out of the
way first. I can clean the
sponge and refill the bucket for
the inside of the windows.
Finally, clean the screens
that were set aside, brushing
away cobwebs and loose dirt
before using soap and water.
Close up all of the windows
and reset the screens.

When guests come to visit,
make them feel right at home
with a well-appointed, newly
designed guest room. Its
become a growing trend for
family and friends to stay in the
homes of those they visit, rather
than stay in a pricey nearby
hotel, and homeowners are tak-
ing that clutter-crammed extra
room and turning it into a space
that welcomes all. Empty
nesters say their adult childrens
former bedrooms, as well as
craft rooms and rooms intended
as home gyms (but became a
dumping ground for holiday
decor, clothing and other items)
have long been on their trans-
form this space list.
You dont need a $10,000
budget to make a comfy, cozy
guest room. With just a few new
purchases and a coat of paint,
your spare room can rival the
nicest bed and breakfast suite.
Here are the top tips for your
guest room creation project:
First, clear everything out
of the room. Follow profession-
al organizer and author Julie
Morgensterns advice, and set
up large plastic bins labeled with
donate, recycle, sort and
other instructions that work for
you, such as move to the attic
or give to my children for stor-
age in their homes. As youre
sorting through everything in
the space, you might find decor
treasures to display elsewhere in
your home.
Focus on the flooring. A
professional carpet cleaner can
steam the rooms carpets, mak-
ing them look like new. Or you
might wish to tear up old, out-
dated, worn carpets to reveal the
hardwood floor beneath. With a
simple coating of oil soap, these
floors can look new. An oversize
Designing a Gorgeous Guest Room
The keys to making your visitors feel right at home
area rug can be purchased new,
perhaps on sale, or you can use
an area rug that you have in stor-
age. The Freecycle Network is
an online source of free trades,
possibly leading you to find the
perfect area rug for this room.
Visit www.freecycle.org.
Paint the walls and ceiling.
A pristine white ceiling gives a
polished look to the room, as
does matching white crown
molding that you or a handy
friend can install. Choose a
soothing wall color, such as a
cappuccino, a darker pink or
even a Tiffany blue, to work
with your existing decor items.
Decorate your walls. Pick a
few pieces of coordinating art-
work, new or existing in your
home, and invest in new, match-
ing-color frames such as all
white, all brushed nickel or all
black. When frames match, the
room looks more unified.
Sabrina Soto, professional room
stager and guest expert on the
television show HGTVd,
says of decorative vinyl cling
wall decor, Those old-fash-
ioned, Home Is Where the
Heart Is kind of sayings in
script are a little cheesy.
Instead, perhaps apply just a few
Subdued colors, comfy bedding and an uncluttered space
make guests feel welcome in your home.

cling Victorian roses in the

Treat your windows.
Insulation is your first task, to
remove drafts and keep the
room warmer or cooler, depend-
ing on the season. Clean all
parts of the windows, and add a
modern curtain rod with decora-
tive finials, as well as fresh, new
shades and curtains. Add the
pretty touches of coordinated
curtain tie-backs that hook onto
hardware easily installed next to
the window frame, behind the
curtains.
Make a comfy bed. Guests
want to sleep on a newer, sup-
portive bed, so test yours out.
Then choose stylish bed linens
that coordinate with the rooms
and curtains colors. Soto says,
In the guest bedroom, be sure
to use bedding that is machine
washable for easier preparation
and cleanup before and after
your guests visit. Add plenty of
supportive sleeping pillows and
decorative throw pillows in
coordinating pillowcases.
Set out a linens and toi-
letry basket. In a large basket,
provide freshly laundered,
fluffy rolled towels and wash-
cloths, along with a selection of
aromatherapy body lotions and
other pampering products for
guests enjoyment as they make
themselves at home.
Clear the air. Guests appre-
ciate having clean, allergen-free
air to breathe, so place a small,
portable air purifier in the room
a few days before their arrival.
Be sure the filter is cleaned and
the machine works silently. An
air purifier is far preferable to
scented candles, potpourri or
room sprays, which can bother
some guests allergies or sensi-
tivities.
Provide a nightlight. They
cost less than $5 at home decor
stores, and the slight glow of
light in their room, or in the con-
nected bathroom, allows your
guests to get up and move
around safely in the middle of
the night if they must.

A privacy fence is often one
of the key components in creat-
ing an outdoor living space.
Privacy fences are ideal for
patios and decks that enable
homeowners to decompress
from the hustle and bustle of a
hard days work. There are a
number of off-the-shelf privacy
fence design options to choose
from, including wooden and
vinyl fences. In addition, ever-
green shrubs can serve as priva-
cy fencing; however, they may
need a few years of growth to be
effective if you buy them small.
The height for an off-the-
shelf vinyl or wooden privacy
fence is typically about six feet.
However, you can sometimes
customize them a bit to extend
them higher. In addition, you
can come up with your own
design to achieve your own par-
ticular style and height. Often,
homeowners who come up with
their own design use a combina-

Privacy Fence
tion of solid material along the
lower two-thirds of the fence
and lattice on the upper third.
When building a wooden pri-
vacy fence, use material that
will not rot or decay over time.
In addition, regardless of the
wood type, the wood should be
sealed in some way to prevent
moisture penetration. If you
elect to paint the fence, make
sure to paint all sides of the lum-
ber, including freshly cut ends.
Another major concern when
building a privacy fence is wind.
A large vertically standing solid
surface is easily susceptible to
wind damage. Consequently,
make sure to install the posts at
least a couple of feet down into
the ground, and preferably set
them in concrete. In addition, by
using lattice or coming up with a
privacy fence design that
includes adjacent/staggered ver-
tical lumber pieces that are at
angles to each other, wind can
flow more easily through the
privacy fence and reduce the
risk of it being blown over.
The use of evergreen shrubs
is also a great way to create a
privacy fence, particularly if you
are building a fence around a
patio or deck. Though evergreen
shrubs can be expensive, using
them in a small area limits the
damage to the wallet.
Whatever your plans and pri-
vacy fence design ideas are, you
should first check with your
local building code enforcement
officer to see whether there are
any restrictions on installing a
fence, even a small privacy
fence. Evergreen shrubs are typ-
ically exempt from local ordi-
nances and covenants for fence
construction.
Privacy fences can be constructed from wood, vinyl and
even evergreen shrubs. Be sure to check city and neighbor-
hood ordinances before building this type of fence.

When you think of floral

and deep, saturated purples and
blues that almost appear black.
A touch of silver or gold
matched with pure white cre-
ates an upscale, classic effect. A
dash of bronze or copper mar-
ried with vibrant yellows or
blues is an unexpected and
delightful decorating twist.
And while bright or light col-
ors are as intrinsic to floral
decor as the background green-
ery, dark blooms impart an
almost mystical aura, whether
the hue is natural or dyed.
Youll see these daring pairings
pop up everywhere from throw
pillows to centerpieces, this
year.

experiment with one floral pat-

Dear Esther,
A Reverse Mortgage is a loan for senior
homeowners (age 62 and above) that uses a
portion of the homes equity as collateral. The
loan generally does not have to be repaid until
the last surviving homeowner permanently
moves out of the property or passes away. At that
time, the estate has approximately six months to
repay the balance of the reverse mortgage or sell
the home to pay off the balance. All the
remaining equity is inherited by the estate. The
estate is not personally liable if the home sells for less than the
balance of the reverse mortgage. The federal government has
established a few basic requirements that everyone must meet in
order to be eligible for a Reverse Mortgage:
You (and your spouse) must be at least 62 years old
Your home must have enough equity to consolidate all
existing mortgages
The type of home must be FHA-approved, such as a single-
family home
A senior can also utilize a Reverse Mortgage for the purchase of
a home. It will require a larger downpayment, but they will never
have to make monthly payments on this mortgage as long as they
live in that home. This program works best when a senior decides to
downsize and uses their proceeds from the sale of the current home
as the downpayment for the reverse mortgage home purchase.
We work with Reverse Mortgage experts, who have been doing
these types of transactions for over 30 years combined. If you
would like more information on Reverse Mortgages or how you
can avoid ever making another home payment, give us a call.
Call or email Brian at 363-8358 or
brian@bsquarerealestate.com
to have your questions answered.
