  1. I did. Somebody is comming next Thursday, but they told me that my findings are 99.99% impossible. This is a reason why I'm looking for some advice
  2. The toilet is not my concern. It is practically not used, so I did not change it yet. The other 3 in the house use 1gal/flush
  3. Is it possible that water meter register higher water usage then actual? O.K. Let me explain. Today I had a phone call from my water company to check my water meter reading, because my usage was somewhat higher then normal. I’ve checked it and is really, really HIGHER then normal. There is no leak (leak indicator is not moving ). So I did experiment. I would like to follow my way of reasoning, because I could be wrong. My meter counts cubic meters of water, one full turn of the dial is 100 litres. There is a toilet close to the meter. I’ve flushed toilet 8 times (closing the supply valve each time) to get full turn of the dial (100 litres). Math is pretty simple 100/8=12.5 litres = 3.17 gal Now I’ve used jug from windshield washer fluid ( 1 gal or 3.78 l) and I needed only two gallons of water to fill the tank to the same level. So, my 2 gal of water shows as 3.17 gal on the meter. Another thing. I’ve filled the same jug twice ( approx 7.5 litres), my meter registered 10 litres of usage. I know that defective meter shows lower usage ( due to wear & tear) but higher. Please share any ideas In mean time I will start looking for the in ground pool on my property I’m sure it is not in a living room.
  4. I do it every year for as long as I can remember Some of them
  5. some info about woods for smoking here: http://bbq.about.com/cs/cookingtips/a/aa051097_2.htm?rd=1
  6. I have no idea what it is. At a first glance I think that questioning of former M. Jackson's plastic surgeon is in order.
  7. I have no idea, but in my opinion it looks ........"vegetarian"
  8. Could you please translate this to English

  10. Paint job is only small part of the equation, but still important. Much more important is the action of the lure and weather you can replicate it consistently. I'm following the work of this guy for at least three years now and in my opinion his job is worth every penny. Some time ago I've tried to replicate his ideas ( after about 1 year of learning ). These are my attempts Like I've said before. Paint job is only part of this. I've used "rattle cans". It is not bad, but nothing to compare with his job. Interesting thing is that two of the lures from pictures did O.K. (in regards to action ), one of them was like piece of 2X4 and one ( which I try to replicate unsuccessfully - 23 times already) has an action called "hunting" in lure builders community.. From one point of view is worthless ( I cannot replicate it), from another is priceless ( my piont of view ). O.k enough for now. If somebody wants to make a living of it PM me. I have a lots of info for free
  11. I had a good laugh looking at this. In PDF format there is about 200 pages with 51 names on page. Due to limited time I've checked only few pages from top ( alphabetical order by last name). I've found few position ( very demanding, time consuming, stressfull...... just the worst government jobs you can imagine) for little bit short (in total) of 1,000,000.00 $ . I do not know how we can survive without them? Ajax Public Library NIE GEOFFREY Chief Librarian/Executive Officer $127,859.64 $23.65 City of Barrie BOYD MONA Parks Horticultural Co-ordinator $107,776.66 $293.96 City of Barrie DAVIS AL Director, Library Services $113,409.25 $470.25 City of Brampton RAINEY MIKE Technical Stage Hand $133,080.99 $396.28 City of Brampton SADIQ AFTAB Data Base Administrator, Oracle $104,782.15 $578.16 City of Brampton - Public Library Board KOSTIAK ADELE Chief Executive Officer $149,307.1 $1,506.50 City of Greater Sudbury HENDERSON RONALD Director, Citizen Services $115,561.39 $4,865.49

  13. Slowly coming from canadian MSM National Post http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/f...limategate.aspx
  14. After reading comments to my post, I have to apologize for not being precise enough with my intentions in regards to posted links -( lack of time ). Just to clarify the misunderstanding. The links are not about:….. 1. “beating a dead horse” 2. “Northwest Passage” 3. “cows that produce methane” 4. “ harsh winters, mild winters or ….no-winters” 5. “lots of snow or no snow” 6. “human off gassing” and other unexplained events The links were about this ( I will put it in bold to avoid future confusion ) Apparently computer hackers get access to server of CRU (Climatic Research Unit) of UEA (University of Eastern Anglia) and downloaded e-mails and documents created by scientists at CRU. CRU is a major supplier of scientific data to IPCC ( Intergovernmental Panel on Climat Change ) of UN. Mentioned documents show that Phil Jones, director of the center and other scientist in his team were falsifying, destroing, hiding, misrepresenting scientific data ( supplied to IPCC )in regards to climat research. Some documents indicate that this was happening since 1999 at cost of approx 25,000,000.00 in grants provided to CRU That’s all nothing more, nothing less. I did not find any info about climatic events listed in 1-6, but if you wish to continue discuss them , please feel free to do it
  15. See yourself http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environme...nipulation.html http://bishophill.squarespace.com/blog/200...uttings-33.html http://globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com...ng-is-scam.html Lots more on the WEB
  16. If your knowledge about HST and understanding it is represented by the sentence in bold/italic (quote from your post) you deserve to pay HST X 2.
  17. Difficult to say 100%, but in 99% I think it is Amanita pantherina (Panther Cap) It is one of those, that can be eaten only once. I prefer different kind for the table Some of the “catch" from last 3 weeks
  18. "FISHING- the complete guide to basics" by Craig Ritchie
  19. good one, but honestly some of the comments (without the foreign accent ) are even better
  20. I'm just surprised that 6 lb Walleye ( not pickerel) can get so much attention
  21. Magical ???? what kind ????? I do not pick m-rooms that make ( after eating them)1.5 lb bass looks like 6.5 lb bass ( wrong kind of magic) , but there is some magic in it, if you compare the taste and smell ( particularly dried) to store bought m-rooms (what I personally call "toilet paper shaped like m-rooms", you will notice the difference. After 40 years of enjoying them I know the difference
  22. To prevent "gunshots" I stop fermentation process after about 7-10 days ( depends on temp) by putting jars in big container with water, then bring the water to the boiling point, remove jars and cool them down in upside-down position. This prevent the air going inside and make a very tight seal.
