xpostech: Something I always do after a machine is broken in is Duralube the engine and gearbox. Another brand is Slick-50. They both embed a microscopic layer of Teflon in the metal surface. The FAA believes in it so I do too. Slick 50 is snake oil, and you've fallen for the "Slick" marketing. At best, you're wasting your money, at worst, you're doing a disservice to your engine. DuPont, the inventors of Teflon, disavow any usage of Teflon as an engine oil additive. They themselves say there is no proof that provides any benefit, and in the past have tried to prevent its use as an oil additive. As for the FAA certification, so what? If it is indeed certified as claimed, don't read that as an endorsement. The FAA certifies things to not cause your plane to fail catastrophically. It doesn't certify it to mean that Slick 50 does what it says it does. It just means that it won't wreck your engine that is a 40 year old design, as is typical in piston engined aircraft. It makes no sense to put suspended solids in your engine to provide lubrication. What prevents wear in your engine is the thin film of oil that coats the bearings. Sticking solids that don't belong in there alters the performance of this thin film, and could also clog oil passages. Save your money and stay away from Slick 50.

terriks, There are lots of great recipes at the joe cross website. These are some of my favorites: Carrot Apple Lemon Juice This recipe makes 2 servings. Ingredients: 4 apples 4 carrots 2 lemons, peeled Directions: Rinse all ingredients and cut to size for your juicer. Add ingredients to juicer. Enjoy! A lot of times I sub a grapefruit for one of the apples Green Lemonade Juice Ingredients: 6-8 kale leaves (Australian Tuscan Cabbage) 3 handfuls spinach 1 green apple 1 cucumber 2 celery stalks 1 lemon Directions: Rinse all ingredients and cut to size for your juicer. Add ingredients to juicer. Enjoy! Green Citrus Juice This recipe makes 2 servings. Ingredients: 2 green apples 2 oranges, peeled 6 big handfuls of leafy greens (kale, chard, spinach, romaine, etc.) Directions: Rinse all ingredients and cut to size for your juicer. Add ingredients to juicer. Enjoy! I usually sub out an orange for a grapefruit in that too. Mostly those make about 32oz. Gazpacho Juice 4 plum tomatoes ( I usually use 2 tomatoes and 2 carrots) 1 large cucumber 2 celery stalks 1 red bell pepper 1 small red onion 2 cups parsley (leaves and stems, roughly chopped) 1 lime the site below is also great. you can plug in your ingredients and it will give you recipes. I started out buying a juice a couple times a week from a juice cafe, then every day, then I got a juicer. trying it out when someone else makes it is easier and cheaper at first. :) there are also a lot of juicers out there and you have to figure out your goals before you buy one. We have two. a centrifugal and a masticating. one is MUCH easier and faster to use than the other. once you start making them every day you start subbing and come up with your own recipes. I try to use cabbage, kale, bock choy, broccoli, romaine, spinach, swiss chard, etc in the green lemonade. I just use two each day and switch it up. I usually have two 32 oz of the green lemonade a day. Here is a link that might be useful: recipe site

It is necessary to drain the water that remains inside the machine in order to access the drain filter and clean it. If you wish to properly maintain your machine, you should periodically remove the filter and clean it out. I usually don't find anything other than the occasional piece of plastic or bits of sand in mine, but I like to check it quarterly. This filter and drain isn't unique to LG washers. Most front loaders that I know of have them.

Years ago we used Quest -- not since our hospital group has taken over most aspects of health care. There are now four or five hospital groups in the Chicago area that own *everything*. There was a long battle over which group would acquire our local independent hospital with its' well-insured population. There are very few independent physicians' practices now. The group that nabbed my internist's practice just gobbled up my GYN's group too.
