    The foods we eat contribute

    directly to our overall

    health. From toddlers just

    getting used to solid foods to

    adults planning their diets, the

    foods we eat heavily influence

    how healthy or unhealthy we

    become.Some foods can even reduce

    our risk for certain diseases,

    including cancer. According to

    the American Institute for

    Cancer Research, numerous stud-

    ies have demonstrated that indi-

    vidual minerals, vitamins and

    phytochemicals have certain anti-

    cancer properties that can protect

    men, women and children from

    this potentially deadly disease.

    The following are a handful offoods the AICR says can fight

    cancer and help men and women

    improve their overall health.

    Apples: Apples are a great

    source of vitamin C, with one

    apple providing at least 10 per-

    cent of the recommended daily

    amount of this valuable vitamin.

    Apples also are a great source of

    fiber, which can help men andwomen maintain a healthy

    weight. Thats important, as

    excess body fat increases a per-

    sons risk for seven different types

    of cancer. A major portion of

    apples dietary fiber is pectin, a

    polysaccharide that bacteria in

    the stomach uses to produce com-

    pounds that protect colon cells.

    Cherries: Cherries are an-other great source of fiber and

    vitamin C, and sweet and tart

    cherries also contain potassium.

    Cherries get their dark color from

    anthocyanins, which are antioxi-

    dants that protect cells from dam-

    age. Studies have shown that

    anthocyanins inhibit the growth

    of cancer cells and even stimulate

    their self-destruction while hav-

    ing no negative effects on healthy

    cells. Anthocyanins also have

    been shown to reduce signs ofinflammation in adults who con-

    sumed two to three servings of

    cherries or cherry juice per day.

    Grapefruit: One-half of a

    medium-sized pink, red or white

    grapefruit provides at least 50 per-

    cent of an adults daily recom-

    mended intake of vitamin C.

    Though research into the poten-

    tial anticancer properties of

    grapefruit with regard to humans

    is ongoing, studies of animals andcells have shown that grapefruit

    powder as well as limonin and

    naringenin, two phytochemicals

    found in grapefruit, decrease the

    Foods that help fight cancer

    Never Again was the

    rallying cry of the

    early Jewish settlers

    in 1948 Israel, as they worked

    and toiled to turn a desert into

    an oasis; finally securing a

    world-wide recognized home-

    land and safe haven. It has also

    been in the hearts and minds of

    all Jews that they would never

    again walk blindly into the gaschambers. This Never Again

    cry still permeates Jewish con-

    sciousness today, as terrorist

    nations have risen to annihi-

    late Israel and Jews around the

    globe.

    But, this is a financial col-

    umn, not a political or a histo-

    ry column you might be think-

    ing, yet, certain parallels can be

    drawn from politics and history

    that relate completely to thefinancial realm and Never

    Again may be one of them.

    Never Again might be a

    rallying cry of investors who

    were blindsided by the demise

    of the stock markets in 2008,

    the three worst years for stocks

    in a row: 2000, 2001 and 2002,

    also remembering stock and

    bond investors alike were hit

    hard in the years 1994 and

    1990, not to forget that stock

    investors were punched square-

    ly in the face on October 19th,

    1987 as the Dow Jones

    Industrial Average dropped

    23% that single day.

    Never Again will I enter

    the stock or bond markets

    blindly without some form of

    protection, has been the state-

    ment made by millions ofinvestors, since these severe

    market corrections and crashes.

    Still I wonder, if it typically

    takes 40 years of toil and labor

    to build a substantial retire-

    ment portfolio, why is the

    Never Again cry not univer-

    sal amongst the public at large?

    The only answer I can

    come up with is ignorance.

    Either ignorance that a market

    correction or crash wont affectthem or they just dont know

    how to invest with a guaran-

    teed* income stream and/or

    principal protection from the

    next inevitable correction or

    crash!

    We bought our first home

    in 1987 and sent in the liquida-

    tion order to our mutual fund

    companies to receive the

    money necessary to close the

    following week. The order was

    sent to the company on

    October 14th and they liqui-

    dated us on the 19th. Our

    money was in an aggressive

    growth fund that lost 43% on

    the very day that they sold our

    shares! The exact day of the

    crash! I guess that happened

    so I could share the story with

    you, today, 27 years later!As for me, I still have

    some of my capital un-protect-

    ed and at risk from the poten-

    tial negativity of the stock mar-

    ket and that money is labeled

    disposable and discretionary or

    Double D as I call it. What is

    there I can afford to lose. But,

    not so with the money I cannot

    afford to lose; the money my

    wife and I are counting on to

    provide us with an incomeguaranteed* for the rest of our

    lives. Nope! Thats the serious

    money, our retirement portfo-

    lio, where I have invested both

    in and on the stock market.

    In each case, we have the

    added protection of an income

    guarantee* that will never

    reduce or cease for as long as we

    live, regardless of who dies first

    period! The portion allocated

    on the market does not

    reduce when stock valuations

    do, but, does increase when the

    market increases; albeit to a

    lesser extent due to the nature

    of the interest crediting formu-

    la that protects your principal

    on the downside.

    The percentage in the

    stock market has no such limi-

    tation during upward move-ments or protection from loss

    with any downward movement

    of the portfolio, just as if I were

    in actual stocks or stock mutual

    funds. The difference though is

    the ability to purchase a benefit

    that guarantees* the income to

    my wife and I along with a

    return of premium (original

    investment) guarantee* upon

    my death if that is a better

    option for her as opposed tocontinuing the lifetime

    income.

    Yes, I can proudly say

    Never Again as it pertains to

    my retirement portfolio; losing

    43% in one day, the week I

    needed to close on my first

    home was lesson enough for

    me! The rest of that 1987 story

    is, in order for me not to lose

    the 50% of the deposit I put

    down with the initial contract

    ($15,000), I had to purchase

    the house. Without receiving

    the amount I expected from

    the mutual fund liquidation, I

    took a cash advance on my

    three credit cards, to make up

    for the short-fall and was able

    to close. Cant use your VISA

    or Mastercard to do that with

    your retirement portfoliothough so I decided then as

    well as now to Never Again

    put my retirement at risk.

    Perhaps you might take

    and implement the same

    advice, as a lifetime of accumu-

    lation is too important to gam-

    ble with. To learn more about

    the techniques, products and

    strategies to do the same, please

    call me for a no cost or obliga-

    tion appointment. The timeyou invest may prove to be

    invaluable! In my opinion its

    better to say Never Again as

    opposed to Woulda, Shoulda,

    Coulda!

    People who suffer from

    an eating disorder arelikely to develop dental

    problems. Bulimia is an eating

    disorder in which a person

    vomits frequently after eating,

    often several times a day, as a

    way to avoid gaining weight.

    Frequent vomiting causes

    dental problems, especially onthe backs of your teeth as the

    acids wear away the enamel. It

    can severely damage the struc-

    tural strength and appearanceof the teeth immensely

    People with anorexia

    nervosa have an eating disor-

    der in which a person severely

    limits food intake and loses a

    dramatic amount of weight.

    These people become defi-

    cient in nutrients that pro-mote oral health, such as cal-

    cium, iron, and B vitamins.

    Insufficient calcium promotes

    tooth decay and gum disease,

    and even if you do consume

    enough calcium, you need

    enough vitamin D to help the

    body absorb it. Insufficient

    iron can cause oral sores and

    insufficient amounts of vita-min B3 (niacin) can con-

    tribute to bad breath and the

    development of canker sores.

    Walnuts: Nuts are often

    cited when discussing foods

    with anticancer properties,

    but the AICR notes that wal-

    nuts, in particular, are the

    most heavily researched.

    Despite that research, the

    AICR remains hesitant to

    draw any conclusions with

    regard to walnuts and their

    potential link to lowering can-

    cer risk. However, several

    studies of mice found that

    consuming walnuts decreased

    the growth of breast and colon

    tumors among mice who ate

    walnuts as opposed to those

    who did not, while other stud-

    ies in mice indicated that wal-

    nuts reduced the growth of

    prostate cancer. Studies into

    the impact of the

    Mediterranean diet, which

    includes walnuts, have shown

    that such a diet can help peo-

    ple lose fat and lower their

    blood pressure and triglyc-

    erides. But the AICR still

    notes the need for more

    research into walnuts before

    they can be considered foods

    that fight cancer.

    Many factors, such as

    family history, that increase

    our risk for developing cancer

    are beyond our control. But

    the foods we choose to eat can

    play a significant role in

    reducing our risk of develop-

    ing various cancers. More

    information about the link

    between diet and cancer is

    available at www.aicr.org.

    Vitamin D has long

    been a friend to men,

    women and children.

    Obtained primarily through

    exposure of the skin to sun-

    light but also procured in cer-

    tain foods and dietary supple-

    ments, vitamin D helps the

    body use calcium and phos-

    phorous to improve bone

    health and build healthy

    teeth.

    But as valuable as vita-

    min D can be to your bones

    and teeth, it also may play a

    role in reducing your risk for

    certain cancers. The National

    Cancer Institute notes that

    many studies have suggested

    that higher intake of vitamin

    D or higher levels of vitamin

    D in the blood are associated

    with a reduced risk of colorec-

    tal cancer. To understand this

    relationship, it helps to first

    understand vitamin D.

    What is vitamin D?

    A group of fat-soluble

    prohormones, vitamin D

    comes in two forms that are

    important to humans.

    Vitamin D2, also known as

    ergocalciferol, is made natu-

    rally by plants, while vitamin

    D3 is produced naturally by

    the body when it is exposed to

    ultraviolet radiation in sun-

    light.

    How are vitamin D levels in

    the body measured?

    When vitamins D2 and

    Our pets are living

    longer than ever

    before due to

    advanced veterinary medicine

    and the improved quality care

    of pet owners. With that comes

    an increased incidence of geri-

    atric-related illnesses and dis-

    eases. One senior pet condi-

    tion is Cognitive Dysfunction

    Syndrome (CDS). This is simi-

    lar to Alzheimers in humans.

    Though we see this only in

    older pets, CDS causes behav-

    ioral changes that are not a

    normal part of the aging

    process.

    There are some basic cat-

    egories of clinical signs associ-

    ated with CDS. These must be

    differentiated from what a pet

    owner may interpret as their

    pet just getting old. The cate-

    gories are as follows:

    1. Disorientation. Your pet

    may display obvious signs of

    disorientation if it looks lost in

    familiar places, or gets stuck

    behind furniture or in corners.

    It may walk in circles, pace, or

    stare off aimlessly at walls and

    objects. Your pet may fail to

    recognize common commands,

    not respond to its name, and

    not recognize familiar people.

    These behaviors should be dif-

    ferentiated from hearing/vision

    loss and neurological condi-

    tions by your veterinarian.

    2. Changes in interaction.

    These changes may mean your

    pet no longer seeks attention or

    enjoys being pet. It may not be

    as excited to greet family mem-

    bers and visitors.

    3. Sleeping pattern changes.

    Dogs with CDS may sleep

    less during the night and

    more during the daytime.

    They may also stay up at

    night vocalizing or pacing.

    4. Accidents. Pets with CDS

    that were perfectly house-

    trained may begin to have acci-

    dents in the house, even if they

    have recently been outside.

    Simply, they forget to ask to be

    let outside and when they are

    outdoors, they will often forget

    why they are there. These

    changes should also be differen-

    tiated from common medical

    conditions by your veterinarian

    before treatment for CDS is

    begun.

    The key to diagnosis is

    based mainly on the pet

    owners observation and

    description of behaviors. There

    is no diagnostic test for CDS.

    Therefore, if your pet exhibits

    any behavioral changes, keep a

    journal of what, when and

    where.

    These changes are not

    part of the normal aging

    process. They can be very dis-

    ruptive and upsetting for pet

    and the household. Unfort-

    unately, as with humans, a

    specific cause is unknown and

    there is no cure; however,

    there are treatment options

    that may help reduce clinical

    signs and improve your pets

    quality of life.

    One option is medication

    that is specifically approved for

    CDS. To learn more about this

    product and disease, visit

    www.cdsindogs.com. There are

    several supplements that have

    been shown to be helpful, such

    as antioxidants, omega-3 fatty

    acids and B vitamins. There are

    also prescription diet options

    that incorporate these supple-

    ments.

    Other ways to improve

    your geriatric pets quality of

    life is to keep it mentally stim-

    ulated with playing, walks, pet-

    ting and interaction. Minimize

    stress by sticking to a daily rou-

    tine and rearranging furniture

    as little as possible. These

    basics will help improve the

    quality of life for all senior pets,

    and will especially have an

    impact on the happiness of pets

    suffering from CDS.

    D3 enter the body, they are

    converted to 25-hydroxyvita-

    min D in the liver before trav-

    eling through the blood to the

    kidneys, where the 25-hydrox-

    yvitamin D is modified to cal-

    citrol, which is the active

    form of vitamin D in the body.

    When a person has their vita-

    min D levels measured, the

    most accurate method of

    doing so is to determine the

    amount of 25-hydroxyvitamin

    D in their blood.

    How do I get enough

    vitamin D?

    The NCI notes that most

    people already get at least

    some of the vitamin D they

    need through sunlight expo-

    sure. In addition to sunlight

    exposure, many people get

    plenty of vitamin D from their

    diets, including foods such as

    fatty fish, fish liver oil and

    eggs that naturally contain

    vitamin D. But foods fortified

    with vitamin D, such as milk,

    juices and breakfast cereals,

    also ensure many people get

    adequate amounts of vitamin

    D. For many people, the com-

    bination of exposure to sun-

    light and diet is enough to

    produce strong bones and

    healthy teeth and reduce risk

    for colorectal cancer.

    But people who are diag-

    nosed with low levels of vita-

    min D can look to supple-

    ments to ensure theyre get-

    ting enough. Recommended

    daily intake guidelines vary

    depending on age, but those

    interested in learning these

    guidelines can find them on

    the Institute of Medicine web-

    site at www.iom.edu.

    Why study the connection

    between vitamin D and can-

    cer?

    While studies have pre-

    viously linked higher levels of

    vitamin D with reduced risk of

    colorectal cancer, research is

    ongoing to determine if vita-

    min D plays a role in lowering

    a persons risk of developing

    other types of cancers as well.

    Driving this research are early

    studies that discovered inci-

    dence and death rates for cer-

    tain cancers were lower

    among people living in south-

    ern latitudes than those living

    in northern latitudes. Thats a

    significant distinction, as lev-

    els of sunlight exposure,

    which is a chief source of vita-

    min D, are relatively high in

    southern latitudes and consid-

    erably higher in such areas

    than in northern latitudes.

    Studies are ongoing into this

    particular link and if vitamin

    D is, in fact, behind the lower

    cancer incidence and death

    rates.

    Another reason to study

    the connection is that experi-

    mental studies conducted on

    cancer cells and tumors in

    mice found that vitamin D

    may play a role in slowing or

    preventing the development

    of cancer.

    Does vitamin D definitively

    lower risk for certain can-

    cers?

    Though evidence has

    suggested a link between high

    vitamin D intake and lower

    risk of specific cancers, the

    NCI notes that, thus far, stud-

    ies have been inconsistent.

    While numerous studies have

    concluded that vitamin D

    reduces a persons risk for col-

    orectal cancer; even that

    widely acknowledged link

    remains open to debate. For

    example, a 2006 study pub-

    lished in the New England

    Journal of Medicine found

    that healthy women who took

    vitamin D and calcium sup-

    plements for an average of

    seven years did not have a

    reduced incidence of colorec-

    tal cancer, though some scien-

    tists questioned if that study

    was extensive enough to sup-

    port its ultimate conclusion.

    More information about

    the relationship between vita-

    min D and cancer is available

    Venous Reflux is

    often the underlying

    cause of varicose

    veins and frequentlyforces men and wo-

    men to dramatically change their

    lifestyles, especially when they are ac-

    tive and can no longer tolerate being

    on their feet. The valves in the veins

    are damaged and the veins near the

    skin surface are stretched and dis-

    torted from the increased pressure

    caused by blood flowing in the wrong

    direction. Although the condition is

    rarely life threatening, it is oftenpainful and unattractive. If your con-

    dition qualifies, we utilize an office

    based treatment that can have you

    back on your feet in no time!

    Seek treatment sooner than later.

    Because vein disease is progressive,

    this can lead to symptoms like

    swelling, cramping, leg heaviness,

    itching and fatigue. Left untreated,

    vein disease can lead to skin discol-

    oration and even ulceration.

    Signs of Vein Problems

    The symptoms are similar for vari-

    cose and spider veins, but are typi-

    cally more severe for varicose veins.Spider veins may cause minor burn-

    ing or itching at the site. Varicose

    vein symptoms include leg aches or

    cramps, a feeling of leg heaviness,

    burning, throbbing or tingling. Skin

    ulcers, especially in the ankle area,

    are not uncommon when varicose

    veins are particularly severe.

    Dr. Ghassemi uses state-of-the-art

    laser and radio frequency therapy to

    treat problem veins in as little as anhour. Procedures are minimally inva-

    sive or non-invasive and patients

    walk out with a healthier outlook.

    Autumn marks the

    time to transitionfrom the hot days of

    summer to the chilly weather

    of winter. As people remove

    sweaters and long pants from

    storage, cleaning up their

    yards also may be on their

    minds.

    Fall is a season of beauti-

    ful foliage, but once that

    magical color show is over,

    thousands of leaves have fall-

    en to the ground, necessitat-ing a few weekends worth of

    yard work. Some homeown-

    ers may be on the lookout for

    environmentally friendly

    ways to handle autumn yard

    work, and thankfully there

    are plenty of eco-friendly

    ways to tackle such tasks.

    Leaves

    The tallest task with

    regard to fall yard work is col-

    lecting the leaves that fall to

    the ground. Some homeown-

    ers prefer to wait until all ofthe leaves have fallen before

    starting the collection

    process, while others handle

    the task in stages to make it

    more manageable. Regardless

    of your timing, skip the noisy

    gas- or electric-powered leaf

    blower in favor of a reliable

    rake. Raking not only col-

    lects the leaves but also helps

    men and women burn calo-

    ries while ensuring they arenot creating any noise or air

    pollution.

    Invest in a durable,

    ergonomic rake to get the job

    done quickly and without

    injury. Innovators are con-

    stantly reinventing the rake,

    and now there are designs

    that do not trap leaves, sav-

    ing homeowners from the

    time-consuming tasks of

    cleaning the rakes teeth.

    Rake on a calm day so the

    wind isnt thwarting yourefforts.

    When it comes time to

    bag the leaves, use

    biodegradable paper bags or

    look for mesh-like bags that

    are made from cornstarch.

    These are more eco-friendly

    than plastic bags, which can

    take much longer to decom-

    pose.

    You wont need to dis-

    pose of all the leaves you col-lect. Shred some to use as

    mulch, which can prevent

    soil erosion during the win-

    ter. Some leaves can be

    added to compost piles or

    used as a soil amendment in

    planting beds.

    Compost

    Autumn is an ideal time

    of year to get started on

    building a compost bin. Take

    advantage of the cooler tem-peratures to make outdoor

    work more comfortable.

    According to the Audubon

    Society, American yards gen-

    erate two tons of clippings

    each year. A lot of that waste

    ends up being bagged and

    thrown away. Instead of pro-

    ducing waste, compost leaves

    and grass trimmings to use as

    valuable fertilizer come the

    spring planting season.When choosing a loca-

    tion for your compost bins,

    be sure to place them a good

    distance away from the house

    but near enough to garden

    beds. Most yard waste and

    food debris can be added to

    the compost pile. Just avoid

    animal products, which can

    produce harmful bacteria.

    Keep the compost damp

    and turn it periodically tofacilitate the decomposition

    process. Soak finished com-

    post in water to create com-

    post tea. This liquid mixture

    can be sprayed on lawns in

    the fall to give the yard a

    nutrient boost that promotes

    healthy regrowth when the

    warmer weather returns.

    Eco-friendly lawn care

    can save energy, money and

    natural resources.

    Gluten is a general name

    for proteins found inwheat that help foods

    maintain their shape and can

    also be found in cereal grains

    such as rye and barley. Gluten is

    not unhealthy, but if a person

    suffers from celiac disease they

    are gluten-intolerant and the

    consumption of gluten may trig-

    ger an immune system response

    that can damage their intestines

    and prevents them from absorb-

    ing proper nutrients.

    If hosting a party, you may

    want to ask your guests if theyare on a gluten-free diet, which

    typically forbids the consump-

    tion of bread, beer, french fries,

    pasta, salad dressing, soy sauce,

    and certain soups. However,

    many food manufacturers have

    begun to produce gluten-free

    alternatives to popular foods

    and beverages, making it easier

    than ever to cater to gluten-

    intolerant guests.

    F

    ew things are more syn-

    onymous with a particu-

    lar culture than its cui-

    sine. Dining at an ethnicrestaurant or experimenting

    with regional flavors in the

    comforts of your own kitchen

    are great ways to experience

    foreign cultures.

    When it comes to

    Hispanic cuisine, familiar sta-

    ples like tacos and burritos may

    be most familiar to non-

    Hispanics. But traditional

    Hispanic delicacies are much

    more than tortilla-wrappeddishes or fried dough. Take, for

    example, Corn Souffl from

    The Complete Mexican,

    South American & Caribbean

    Cookbook (Metro Books) by

    Jane Milton, Jenni Fleetwood

    and Marina Filippelli. Souffls

    may be instantly associated

    with French cuisine, but this

    Latin American take is just as

    tasty. It wont rise as much as its

    French counterpart, but thetexture will still be light and

    airy.

    Corn Souffl

    Serves 6

    6 tablespoons butter

    11 ounces sweet potato, peeled

    and cubed

    11 ounces pumpkin, peeled

    and cubed

    2 cups frozen corn kernels,

    thawed3 scallions, roughly chopped

    5 ounces cheddar cheese,

    grated

    5 eggs

    Salt and ground black pepper

    1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.

    Using 1 tablespoon of the but-

    ter grease an 11x7-inch baking

    dish. Cook the sweet potato

    and pumpkin in a pan of light-

    ly salted boiling water for 10

    minutes, until tender. Drain

    and set aside.

    2. Put 1 cups of corn kernels

    into a food processor. Add the

    chopped scallions and process

    until smooth. Melt the remain-

    ing butter in a pan and stir inthe corn-and-scallion mixture.

    Cook, stirring, over a low heat,

    for about 1 to 2 minutes.

    3. Add the cheese, stirring until

    it has melted. Season generous-

    ly with salt and pepper.

    Remove from heat.

    4. Separate 3 of the eggs and

    add the remaining 2 eggs to the

    bowl containing the yolks. Mix

    lightly, then stir the yolk mix-

    ture into the pan. Add thesweet potato, pumpkin and

    remaining corn. Whisk the egg

    whites until stiff, then fold

    them into the souffl mixture.

    5. Transfer the mixture to the

    prepared dish and place thedish in a roasting pan. Pour in

    hot water to come halfway up

    the side of the dish and bake for

    35 to 40 minutes, until golden.

    If the souffl still wobbles when

    shaken gently, cook for another

    5 to 10 minutes. Leave to cool,

    then serve.

    Tip: For the best results,

    whisk the egg whites with a

    pinch of salt in a clean glass or

    metal bowl. When they arevery stiff and no longer slide

    around the bowl when it is

    moved, they are ready for use.

    iting a home. Taking up a

    good portion of the front

    acreage of the home, a drive-

    way can add visual appeal to

    the property. But when drive-

    ways are stained, cracked or

    pitted, they become eyesores

    that can rob a home of its

    curb appeal.

    Concrete driveways arenotorious for absorbing stains.

    Anything from automotive

    fluids to fallen leaves can

    affect the appearance of a

    concrete driveway. And while

    cleaning the driveway can

    take a little effort, the end

    result is well worth the effort.

    Asphalt driveways may

    not show stains as visibly as

    concrete driveways, but thatdoes not mean they cannot

    benefit from some TLC. The

    following cleaning methods

    can give a tired or dirty drive-

    way a good-as-new look.

    Pressure washing

    Pressure washing

    machines can be used to

    remove ground-in stains from

    driveways. The power of the

    streaming water and a combi-nation of mild cleanser may

    be able to remove a number of

    stains, including those from

    leaves, mold, spills, dirt, fun-

    gus, and bird droppings.

    Proceed with caution

    when using pressure washers,

    as they can be powerful tools.

    If the nozzle is set incorrectly,

    it is quite easy to pit out por-tions of the driveway or create

    a streaky look. Widen the

    spray and pass over each area

    several times to remove

    ground-in stains.

    Pressure washers may

    come equipped with various

    attachments to make the

    process easier and eliminate

    stripping. Beginners may

    want to consider an attach-

    ment to make the job less

    arduous.

    A rotary turbo nozzlewill focus the water in a fine

    stream but constantly rotate

    that stream to cover a wider

    area. A water broom willclean a wider area in one pass

    and some have castors that

    keep the nozzles the same

    height over the driveway sur-

    face. According to the

    Pressure Washing Industry

    Resource Center, pressure

    washing a driveway will go a

    lot faster and becomes easier

    if you use a water broom.

    A surface cleaner is

    another attachment that

    enables you to push a rotary

    arm over the driveway forfaster cleaning.

    Non-chemical cleansers

    Cleaning driveway stains

    may only require a few itemsyou already have around the

    house. Sometimes stains can

    be minimized simply by

    absorbing spills or residual

    oils and fluids.

    Sawdust, cat litter and

    baking soda are ideal,

    absorbent materials. Sprinkle

    these substances on oily stains

    in the driveway and allow

    them to sit for a few days

    before sweeping away the

    residue. After a few days, the

    oily stain will most likely beminimized.

    Laundry detergent and

    dish soap also can break

    through some greasy stains.Try making a solution of

    water and the detergent of

    choice. Use a stiff-bristle

    broom to work the cleanser

    into the stained driveway,

    then rinse away the suds with

    a hose. Repeat until the stains

    have lifted.

    Commercial products

    Auto supply and paint

    stores typically sell driveway

    cleaners. Always read themanufacturers instructions

    and guidelines prior to pur-

    chase to determine if the

    product will work to remove

    your driveway stains. Some

    products may be too harsh to

    use on asphalt, which is more

    malleable and porous thanconcrete and paver driveways.

    Only use products that are

    recommended for your partic-

    ular driveway surface. If you

    dont, you may cause even

    more damage.

    Muriatic acid, also

    known as hydrochloric acid,

    is used in swimming pools and

    for different applications

    around the house. It is a

    strong solvent that can cleansome of the more stubborn

    driveway stains. Always exer-

    cise caution when using

    chemical cleansers. Wear eye

    protection, gloves and be sure

    to mix properly, as many

    chemicals are flammable.

    Preventing stainsAllowing fluids or other

    substances to sit on a driveway

    may contribute to soaked-in

    stains. Being proactive can

    mean less scouring later on.

    Routinely examine the drive-

    way for automotive fluids and

    take your car in for a tune-up

    to remedy any leaks.

    Rinse away leaves and

    other debris before they affect

    your driveways appearance.Keep cat litter on hand to

    soak up minor spills and stains

    before they grow into larger

    problems.

    Picture this

    Circa 1985. I am in

    New York City with

    my girlfriend at the

    time, who is now my wife. It is

    159 degrees and I am carrying

    about 80 pounds of baseballcards I just bought on

    Columbus Avenue.

    Even though I was 23 at

    the time, and had lived 20

    minutes outside of the city all

    my life, I had never visited.

    So, of course, it was all new

    and exciting to me.

    As we were walking, I

    looked up and there I saw the

    fabled Twin Towers. They

    were so big and appeared to bevery close. I said to my girl-

    friend, Id really like to

    go see them. She replied,

    No problem theyre not

    far away at all. That

    statement sure made

    sense to me because I

    could see them clear as

    day. But after walkingaround 30 minutes in the

    now 189 degree heat, we

    didnt seem to be much

    closer!

    The 80 pounds I was

    carrying was feeling more

    like 180 pounds and I was

    tempted to just drop them

    and leave. But once

    again, my girlfriend

    assured me we were very,

    very close.As I recall, we

    NEVER made it to the

    Twin Towers that day.

    Instead we grabbed a cab

    or bus or train or whatev-

    er, and went back to

    Jersey.

    Sometimes something

    that appears so close isactually quite distant.

    Dreams are like that.

    They will never be fully

    realized, in most cases,

    without a slow, hot,

    painful walk.

    Think about it

    Is there a dream that you

    have had that you never

    pursued, even though

    every fiber of your beingtells you to move forward?

    You dont because, in most

    cases, you are fearful. Fearful

    of failing or of what others will

    say. Remember: ITS YOUR

    LIFE!!!!! Maybe this will help.

    Take that dream of yours and

    ask yourself this question, If I

    do this what is the worst thingthat could happen? Write

    down your answer and if you

    can live with itGO FOR

    IT!
