Here are some books I would recommend: By Carol Deppe Either "Breed Your Own Vegetable Varieties: Popbeans, Purple Peas, and Other Innovations from the Backyard Garden" OR "Breed Your Own Vegetable Varieties: The Gardener's & Farmer's Guide to Plant Breeding & Seed Saving" The 2nd listing is a sort of 2nd addition. Its more commercially oriented. It contains the first book as a first section. Another book I found quite good (finding it may be tricky) is: "Create New Flowers and Plants - Indoors and Out" by John James (it was printed in 1964, so find either used or through your library system). I know nothing about breeding herbs. If you want to breed carrots w/ herbs that is hybridizing outside the genus and is extremely difficult if not impossible through normal hybridizing (from what I know - others may have different opinions). Good Luck!!!

Lynn, I apologize for not replying sooner to your above post, but I knew that Owbist and RavenÂs answers were much better than mine would have been. If you would have seen me working on the pictures and text for the above post, you would have laughed and shaken your head at my floundering efforts! :) After reading through the Irfanview Tutorial that Bob gave, I think IÂm going to download it and give it a go. The tutorial indicated that screen capture (IrfanviewÂs name for print screen) does a much cleaner job than the Print Screen key on our computers. This is what I did: Opened All Programs, moved mouse up to Accessories, and selected Paint from the drop-down dialog. I found the place in the Computer Forum thread that I wanted to capture and hit my Print Screen key. I returned to Paint and did a Control V to paste the shot. Next I did a right click on my Taskbar and took a Print Screen of the Taskbar dialog box. I added that to screen shot of the Forum thread. My first attempts at adding text were terrible. Finally I did this: (I started saving the Paint image in My Pictures.) In order not to lose the Computer Forum thread in which I was posting, I opened a new internet window so that I could go to the VIDEO site that Raven posted. (I wanted to take a Print Screen to help the reader spot the Video play button.) I pasted the shot in Paint below the earlier pic. In the space between the two pics I typed some things for the reader to consider. Next I basically followed the steps outlined above and added text to the Video shot. Then I joined Photobucket (free). After you join you will see this window: CHOOSE FILES to upload. Photobucket says when the image has uploaded. Next click the HTML Code. Paste in Forum. (You could practice in Test Forum.) I've tried to make this brief--hope it's clear! :) Here is a link that might be useful: Test Forum

Hi, I went through this exercise two years ago to install a Cummins Onan 20kw Generator. You are correct in that there are lots of trades involved here: 1) Electrician 2) Plummer for Gas 3) Gas propane supplier 4) Builder for concrete pad 5) Generator / Tunner I did not buy my generator from a turnkey place because those places are expensive. I bought my generator from Costco. It took a bit of doing but I think it came out O.K. The first issue was when the generator was delivered it was missing a few parts. Small issue in that a hinge pin was missing. A bit of going back and forth between Costco and Cummins Onan. Costco in general had no clue, you get the usual customer serrvice rep more accustomed to handling pots and pan returns. Cummins Onan was another story. These guys although dificult to get to the right person via Costco. Once there they were very good. In total they came to my place four times. 1 came out to check over the genset, 2 replace ths missing pin (free both times). I paid for them to come out for on-site turn on and tuning, And one more time to fix on a Goverment recall notice (free). I paid only once for the turn on visit. They were prompt and responsive on the phone was good. I recommend them, The installation was handled for me by a Electrician who had generator installation experience. The Cummins Onan was over 1000 lbs in weight, so my electrician used a small back hoe to put it in place on concrete pad. He also did all the trenching for the gas lines. The propane gas tank we had to purchase from the propane company. They hooked up the tank and put in the gas line and installed a gas regulator for the generator. The propane company were NOT willing to hook up the gas regulator to the generator! So we had to get a plumber to do the final hook up. My electrician had a licensed plummer to do that bit. Took him all of 30 mins and was a buddy so the charge was not too high $US 200 I think, Final turn on was done by Cummins Onan. They came checked the wiring and the tuning, My electrician was also there to make sure no back feeding to the local utility side. My ATS came with the generator as a set. The ATS has a number of additional hookups for my genset. 1) Heater on 120v to keep the genset warm for fast start up reduced engine wear 2) Trickle charger cable to make sure car battery in gen set constanlly topped up. Something like a battery tendor / charger. 3) power cables for output power. (not switched neutral) 4) Various engine start etc controll cables. My supply is 400 amps coming into two panels. My electrician rewired one of the 200 amp panels to be the 'BACKED up' panel. All the circuits that we wanted genset powered was on one sub-panel. The ATS then controls power to that panel. The non-backed up circuits were moved off to the other not backed up sub panel. I would advise that you ask your electrician to also install a whole house surge supressor on the incoming power lines. That way a lightning strike will not take out your genset, or at least less likely to.... The whole exercise took about 4 months from start to finish. The electrician was the general contractor and I think did a good job in coordinating all the trades. The only bit that I did was the gardening, planted a new lawn over all the earth excavations :) so yet another trade ..... Best, Mike.

I hope this link works, Mudlady.. I'll test it before I leave this forum. But...if it doesn't...enter the "Kindle+Fire+for+Dummies" into any one of your search engines [i.e. Google, duckduck, Bing] and it should bring up a long list of "Dummy" books to assist you with the operation of your new Kindle. Additionally...there are a myriad of Dummy books explicitly for computers and their operation. To that...let me add...that you're doing far better...and are braver than me. :-) I don't own a Kindle [or any similar product] and my cell phone is still the flip up kind. I'm loosing my sight to macular degeneration and over the next several years...it's anyone's guess as to what, if anything I may be able to see/operate. But I do have your determination so I forge on...undaunted. Good luck with your latest project.
