If you have win8 onedrive is built in. Don't download and install it on windows 8 or 81.

maybe my referral link :)
Refer OneDrive to a friend and both of you will receive +500 MB. Refer up to 10 friends.

Looks like it's drying out. When you water, how long do you water? I'm guessing you are not giving the grass the deep soak it needs. If you had deep roots before, those roots are dying from the frequent, shallow watering and the grass is showing you what that looks like. You can get the same look from the frequent watering if you are saturating the soil. That cuts off air to the roots and the roots die off. This time of year you should be watering once every 2 weeks. Since you have been watering 2x per week, you should wean your grass down from that. Put out some cat food or tuna cans and turn on your sprinklers. Time how long it takes to fill all the cans. That is how long you should be watering, but only once every 2 weeks with temps in the 80s. This gives the soil surface a chance to dry out completely while the deep roots are still getting moisture from the deep watering. I have a lawn in the Texas desert which I did not begin to water for 2014 until mid July. We had some accidentally well-timed and deep rains, but other than that, the grass was relying on deep roots. When you set out the cans to time your sprinkler, consider that day 1. Then watch the grass and the calendar. When the grass shows signs of wilting, water it again. If that has been less than 1 week, then water for half the time. The grass should soon begin to go longer before looking wilted. Keep stretching it. Fall is a good time to begin the change to deep and infrequent watering, because the weather is cooling off. Watch the grass, not the soil. The soil will get dry and hard, but the grass will remain fresh looking for many days. By the density of the lawn I'm guessing it is Kentucky bluegrass, but it could be a fescue. Even experts have trouble telling those apart. It's easier to look at seed heads or at symptoms of problems to tell what they are.

HELP! Something is digging up my lawn...

Or skunks. Any of the above can be guilty of digging in lawns. Squirrels are hiding things for winter. Skunks are going after grubs or worms. Raccoons just dig for the heck of it sometimes, but also to feed. On the down side, it causes some damage. On the up side, it means you have a healthy enough locale that they're comfortable poking around and happy.

The boxes should have covers even if they're hidden behind appliances. It's not "better" nor worse to remove an unused receptacle. There's no requirement that there this circuit be dedicated (provided the installation instructions for the appliance didn't specifically call this out). There's not any particular place that matters if you're going to put it behind the oven, make sure the cord for the oven can reach it. While nothing precludes a cord and plug connected wall oven, most these days tend to just have appliance whips that mount to the box directly.

One Drive and One note.
Q

One Drive is an over-the-internet, centralized server-based storage. The initial free tranche - 5 GB, is pretty small and not all that useful in my opinion. Someone on one vacation trip taking a moderate amount of photos of what's now normal quality (5-10 megs each) would exceed that amount easily. The lowest paid tranche is 100 GB at $7/month, which is very expensive compared to the alternatives. For example, one could buy two 64GB SD cards for $40 or less, that would give 128 GB of storage. Or a hard drive, 500 GB (5 times as much) for $50 or so. It's true that One Drive does provide a sync and access between devices but I personally don't think that's of much value. Removing photos from a camera and moving or copying them from one storage location or device to another is simple and something everyone needs to know how to do. One Note is a note taking program that's integrated with OneDrive for online storage and manipulation.

Sometimes the Microsoft and related websites act bratty when you're not using Internet Explorer.

The image you posted, big al, looks like Firefox. Do you get the same response when you try the same thing using Internet Explorer as the browser?

Wish I had gotten here earlier, but I am out of town. Mikie hit a home run with his referral. You needed the download to utilize OD. Once you got it you are all set. It will also need to be added to any devices if you intend to utilize It on them.

Usually I put a folder within my Pictures folder, then Right click and press share.
It will give you the option to email the share, probably the best way,,, or get a web link to it.

I think if you email the share to another user with OneDrive and use their Microsoft OneDrive Account email. They will have the option for sort of automatically seeing the pics and can mark them if they wish Online-Only so as not to actually download tons of files to their hard drive.

Lots of OneDrive info . on their forums..
