Thanks Bernie. Our trees and shrubs have never looked so good. We have been so amazed at the turn around the maples have taken since cutting away the girdling roots and air knife work 3 years ago. We were close to loosing all of our azaleas before you started treating them. The most important thing is all of your products are organic and will not harm the environment. -- Diane S., Norwalk, OH

I should have done this before now but circumstances prevented it. This is what I must tell you. My trees are beautiful. The crowns on the Norway Maples are full and green. The two trees, Red Maple and Crimsom King, that had no root flares to speak of, are larger and fuller. I don't see any bugs on any of the trees and shrubbery. -- Frances D., Lorain, OH

MONTH-long police hunt ends after dramatic three-hour stand-off.

A MONTH-long police hunt for Rowan Weaver came to an end yesterday after a dramatic three-hour rooftop standoff in Lavington.

More than 50 people watched on as 18 police officers and two negotiators talked the 24-year-old Weaver down from a Schaefer Street house.

Witnesses said Weaver was chased by police through several yards before he climbed onto a roof about 12.45pm.

The street was blocked for three hours as Weaver paced the tiled roof with his shirt tied around his head and his sunglasses on.

He ripped tiles from the roof, which he smashed and threw at police.

Weaver who had been wanted over traffic offences, intimidation offences, assault, aggravated break and enter and other charges remained in police custody overnight and will face Albury court today.

Resident of a neighbouring house, Colleen, said she heard the chase from inside her house.

TAVARES Mayor Robert Wolfe and fellow City Council members Norman Hope and Lori Pfister are seeking re-election to two-year-terms.

Races are nonpartisan and council members, who make $5,557 annually, are elected citywide. Each year in November members select the mayor, who is paid $6,557 annually.

Early voting prior to the Nov. 4 general election continues through Nov. 1.

Here's a rundown of the candidates:

Seat 1

Wolfe, an eight-year council member, said his hands-on approach, work ethic and ability to listen to residents will help the city continue to thrive.

"I want to continue to be on the City Council and continue to lead this city in the right direction," he said. "My qualifications and what I've done in the past should let voters know their vote is good with me."

As the owner of a tile business for 17 years, he said he wants to continue to work on city projects, including the city's stormwater initiative. In addition to improving the downtown district, he said the city's new $6.3 million wedding and special-events facility on Lake Dora will benefit residents.

"The extra money being spent on it just moved it to the next level to hold events," he said. "I believe the money spent will be brought back to the city and the city residents and the businesses and the downtown area alike."

Challenging Wolfe is Lisa Johnson, owner of a health and nutritional business for seven years. Johnson said she wants to keep taxes and government spending to a minimum. As the owner of E-Z Nutrition101 on Alfred Street, she said she thinks the community would benefit from a "fresh face."

TIME U.S. cities Eight Firefighters Were Injured Battling a Los Angeles Blaze The fire occurred in a storage building full of combustibles but without a sprinkler system

A huge blaze in a death trap of a building in Los Angeles led to eight firefighters sustaining injuries, local fire officials have said.

The building, a storage facility, was packed with flammable materials, including vinyl records and furniture, yet it had no sprinkler system, was organized like a mouse maze, and had poor ventilation, Reuters reports.

More than 360 firefighters were called in to fight the extremely hot and stubborn major emergency blaze on Saturday overnight, the Los Angeles fire department said in a statement. Though much of it was contained within six hours, putting the fire out took just over 14 hours in total.

Firefighters battled until they were low on air, and had to exit to get new air bottles, then rejoined the fight, the department says. Firefighters also had to slice through the buildings metal roof to let smoke escape.

Five of the eight injured firefighters, all of whom suffered non-life-threatening injuries, required hospital care but were released, the fire department said.

About one-third of the building was damaged in the blaze, and loss to the buildings contents, which included many family heirlooms, is inestimable, the department says.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Eight Firefighters Were Injured Battling a Los Angeles Blaze

The simple act of watering your lawn is not always so easy. In hot climates, for example, you might use a timer thats hard-wired into an irrigation system to trigger sprinklers all over your yard at optimal times. But while these systems seem advanced, theres often no way to disable one remotelysay, during a rainstorm, or if watering restrictions are put in place. Also, if you do have to adjust your settings, one glance at the control panel on an Orbit or Rain Bird system, with its multiple knobs and switches, is enough to make you want to go back to watering by hand with a hose.

The Rachio Iro is a device that aims to greatly simplify things by allowing you to set up and tweak complex lawn irrigation schemes via a mobile app. Its a $250 box you install, and it takes the place of your existing controller module, so the only requirements are that you have an electronically controlled system already in place, and that you have an iOS or Android device to run the show.

I installed my test unit blind, without any prior knowledge of how sprinkler controllers even work other than the obvious (e.g., there are zones arranged across a yard). Installation could not have been easier. Most sprinkler controllers are connected by wires to the sprinkler system itself. At a home in California, I unplugged an Orbit unit, disconnected the wires, and pulled it off the wall by pushing up off the screws. The Iro lets you screw through the unit itself directly into the wall, which saves you the trouble of matching up screw holes. For wiring, it was easy to see the main common wire that controls the water valves. The three other wires (black, red, and green) I quickly deduced were used to control the three existing zones. I connected the common wire and the zone wires into the Iro. The install guide is well-written, and everything on the unit was clearly labelled.

Now for the challenging part. Once you finish installing any wirelessly-enabled hardware in your home, it can be tricky to add it to your wireless network. How do you connect securely when theres no LCD screen? Well, Rachio solved this issue using BlinkUp, a pairing technology made by a company called Electric Imp. During the setup, I found the home Wi-Fi network in the Rachio app and typed in the password, then held my phone up against a small opening in the Iro. My phone flashed quickly for about 15 seconds, transmitting the network information.

Within 15 minutes, I had a working app-controlled sprinkler system.

After a few seconds, the app connected to the Iro controller and I was ready to setup my zones. In the app, you trigger a zone and wait to see if the sprinklers start running in that area. Once they do, you label the zonesay, front yard or bushes. Within 15 minutes, I had a working app-controlled sprinkler system.

Right away, I was able to manually trigger sprinklers for a set period of time. I watered each zone for three minutes. (The Iro does this in succession.) I also set up a watering schedule to trigger the sprinklers at noon each day. One day, a notice popped up in the app that said there was a rain delay and the watering would be postponed. The Iro had checked weather reports and postponed sprinkling automatically. I never had to configure this.

You can also employ a rain sensor from companies like Hunter and Toro, which will also discontinue watering even if the Iro doesnt delay sprinkling due to a weather report. The sensor attaches into one of the ports on the Iro next to the watering zone ports.

Rachio offers apps for iPhone and Android, and theres a beta for a web app. All the apps offer charts to break down your water usage by hours/minutes, gallons, and cubic feet. Its a great way to monitor how much watering youve been doing. The company also tells me it plans to offer additional insights about watering, including data from other Rachio users in your area who are sharing their reports. Conceivably, a neighborhood could water on set schedules.

Rachio does have some competition. The Rain Machine (not to be confused with the band started by Kyp Malone from TV on the Radio) also costs $250. Its easy to install and has a front panel touchscreen, but the rain sensing data is hard-coded based on historical weather patterns (e.g., it rains more in the spring). The Sky Drop ($300) has a mobile app, rain-sensing features, and a touchscreen controller, but it costs a bit more.
