Cheers to Billy Patterson of Patterson's Heating and Cooling. After a few days without heat, our home warranty company finally called Mr. Patterson to fix my heater. He had no problem coming to my house as soon as he found out, at 9 p.m. after working all day, to look at and fix our heater so my wife and grandchildren would stay warm. He had a great positive, caring and honest attitude when he arrived and conducted the repair. He did not try to scam us.
We highly recommend Patterson's Heating and Cooling to anyone who needs maintenance or repairs. He restored our faith in honest repairmen.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 13, 2014
Bardi Heating, Cooling and Plumbing, an Atlanta HVAC repair company, will be open during normal business hours on both Saturday, February 15 and Sunday, February 16 to assist homeowners in need of plumbing or heating services as a result of the latest winter storm. The storm lashed Atlanta with snow, ice and sleet. The wintery mix weighed down trees, snapped power lines and the low temperatures caused pipes to freeze and burst. Bardi will waive all emergency fees and offer repair services for furnaces and home heating systems, as well as plumbing.
The city has been in a near standstill since Tuesday as we wait out the worst of this storm, said Gresham Ard, Residential General Manager at Bardi. Many people have lost power and heat due to the accumulated ice. We had to respect the governors rule, however, and keep our trucks off the roads during the storm. We know homeowners are still hurting and need help, so were working through the weekend to help them and were waiving our emergency fees to make sure that extra cost doesnt keep people from seeking the services they need.
Bardi phone lines are open for homeowners to schedule appointments throughout the weekend. To request a technician, call 770-263-5355 or schedule an appointment online. Based in East Norcross just outside the city of Atlanta, Bardi services the entire metro-Atlanta area.
Bardi Heating, Cooling and Plumbing is a family-owned HVAC and plumbing company in Atlanta. Founded in 1989 by Alex and Susan Bardi, the company has been providing the Atlanta area with quality HVAC services for almost 25 years. Bardi also offers plumbing repairs and services, and is home to an experienced management team as well as an outstanding team of NATE certified technicians, whose number one priority is to keep their customers satisfied by always, always, always doing the right thing. For more information about furnace repair, visit bardi.com or call 770-263-5355.

While some people are trying to forget Januarys subzero temperatures, power bills are providing a chilling reminder of this winters record cold weather. According to Daviess-Martin County REMC, temperatures in January 2014 were approximately 28 percent colder than last years.
Those extreme temperatures directly affect power bills. As a cooperative, were always looking out for ways to help our members, said Janet Chestnut, manager of communications/member relations. Through Team Up To Save, we offer programs to help co-op members use energy more efficiently and manage their power bills. For example, we offer rebates on heating and cooling system upgrades and an energy management program. Were here to help people use electricity more wisely.
In addition, Daviess-Martin County REMC, suggest these winter energy-saving tips:
Lower your water heater thermostat to 115 degrees;
Limit showers to 5 to 7 minutes;
Repair dripping faucets;
Wash clothes in cold water and do only full loads of laundry;
Make sure the dryer vent is cleaned regularly and not kinked;
Use countertop cooking appliances instead of the range;
Use the microwave when possible;

You probably don't want to think about summer forages and grazing with all of the talk about dangerous wind chills, the polar vortex, and lots of snow. However, you should be because spring and summer are just around the corner.
This is a good time to study new developments in forage varieties and pasture grass species.
The 2014 seed and forage guides are out, and varietal test results have been published. If seed is not yet ordered for frost seeding, planned renovation, new pasture development, or for summer annuals, it should be done before supplies are reduced. Key points in pasture and forage development include choice of adapted varieties and species that will persist for several years and adding legumes to provide nitrogen. Some research has recommended diversifying pasture and forage systems to include warm season species in the summer and annual cool season species in the fall. Why should summer annuals be considered by all dairy producers? They are very drought tolerant and can fill a gap in feed when other species experience the "summer slump". They are great emergency forages during dry weather and are multipurpose, so you can be use them for grazing, silage, or for baling.
During the summer of 2013, we planted two summer annuals for grazing for the first time at the University of Minnesota West-Central Research and Outreach Center dairy in Morris. BMR sorghum-sudangrass and teff grass were planted to create a more uniform and extended forage supply. These grasses were seeded with a drill on May 28, 2013, but because of the late spring, this was about 2 weeks later than what we had planned.
BMR sorghum-sudangrass has increased in popularity due to the BMR gene and increased NDF digestibility (5 to 10% higher than regular sorghum-sudangrass). The plants have thick stems and are very leafy. Sorghum-sudangrass has moderate regrowth potential, but you should not graze or cut for forage until the plants are at least 18 inches tall to reduce prussic acid concentration. The ideal height for forage is 18 to 36 inches tall. When grazing sorghum-sudangrass, animals should be moved so they leave 6 to 8 inches of stubble, but they might waste 20 to 30% of the forage through grazing. Lastly, sorghums and sudangrasses are luxury consumers of potassium, so they should not be used for dry cow forages. For seeding rate, we seeded our fields and pastures at 20 pounds per acre.
Teff grass is native to Northern Africa. Teff is drought tolerant and can be seeded into many different soil types. With this grass, you will have high yield with competitive forage quality, and will have rapid growth for 9 to 12 weeks. The seed is very, very small, and we seeded our pastures at 8 pounds per acre.
Both of these annuals should be planted at 60 to 65 degree soil temperature and planted 1 to 1.5 inches deep. Perhaps manure should be added as a fertilizer before planting because they have nitrogen requirements that are similar to corn.
The table shows averages for forage quality of BMR sorghum-sudangrass, teff grass, and cool-season grasses during 2013. The cool-season species consist of mixtures of smooth bromegrass, orchardgrass, red and white clover, and alfalfa. The dry matter of the sorghum-sudangrass was low because the cattle grazed the fresh forage in the early vegetative state. The summer annuals were not as high in crude protein as the cool-season grasses. However, with lower crude proteins, we probably improved nitrogen utilization of the milking herd. The ADF values of the grasses were very similar and are within the range of low 30s to mid-50s. All of these grass species were high in digestibility. The NDF levels were higher for the summer annual grasses compared to cool-season species. However, the total tract NDF digestibility (TTNDFD) was lowest for the teff grass. The TTNDFD is a measure of how much of the fiber is digestible, how fast the fiber digests, and how long a cow holds the fiber in the digestive system. The summer annuals were similar to the cool-season grasses for sugar and non-fiber carbohydrates, and they provided similar net energy for lactation and milk per ton as the cool season grasses.
Remember, sorghum-sudangrass and teff grass are not replacements for cool-season forages, but should be added to a forage program to complement the cool-season grasses. If there is a drought or dry weather, these two forages may prevent you from having to buy expensive hay during a drought. If you need any assistance with these unique forages or would like more information please contact me at 320-589-1711 or hein0106@umn.edu.

Plan now for summer forages and grazing
As the February 28 deadline approaches for Fairview-area farmers to insure their pasture and hay land this year, above-average to normal snow cover across the Peace region and much of the province has livestock producers feeling hopeful about the potential growth theyll get on their hay and pasture once the snow melts this spring.
We had a relatively dry fall so all of the snow weve gotten so far this winter should definitely help kick-start growth on forage crops in the spring depending on how slow or fast it melts and how much of that moisture soaks in. There is very little frost in the ground so that should help in terms of snow melt moving into the ground this spring, says Calvin Yoder, a forage specialist with Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development (ARD) in the Peace region. He adds the thick blanket of snow should also help insulate perennial forage plants, reducing the risk of winterkill this year.
Dry Soil Conditions Beneath the Snow
In the M.D. of Fairview, provincial moisture maps show that soil moisture beneath the snow as of late January is generally moderately low to low. Snow cover is generally moderately high.
Perennial hay and pasture crops depend on plenty of moisture early in the spring for healthy growth, says Yoder. So in the end, it always comes down to spring moisture and rainfall in late May and early June. Thats what really makes or breaks our forage production across the region every year, he says.
Last year, dry conditions in early spring and late summer triggered more than $4.4 million in hay and pasture insurance in some areas across the province, including the M.D. of Fairview, says John Kresowaty, with Agriculture Financial Services Corporation (AFSC). AFSC is the Crown corporation that provides crop insurance to Alberta farmers on behalf of the provincial and federal governments.
When the rain finally came in late May and June, we ended up with strong growth on hay and pasture in most regions, says Kresowaty. He notes last years total payout is among the lowest in more than a decade due to favourable precipitation and good growing conditions in June and July. The highest payout years for hay and pasture insurance were during the droughts of 2009 when $56 million was paid in claims, and 2002 when $89 million was paid out.
Of course, nobody can predict what will happen this spring, says ARD provincial soil moisture specialist, Ralph Wright. It could be wet or the snow could melt quickly and things could turn hot and dry. If its a cold spring, the snow could linger, delaying hay and pasture growth. Theres still two months of winter left. Anythings possible. Its really a wait-and-see game because weather is so random, says Wright.
7.5 Million Acres Insured
Unpredictable weather is the biggest reason Alberta producers insure about 7.5 million acres of hay and pasture across the province every year through AFSC Perennial Insurance programs, says Kresowaty.

SANTA CLARA -- At 80 percent complete, Levi's Stadium is approaching the cosmetic-touches stage, some seven months until the 49ers' official home opener in what's expected to be a Week 2 matchup on "Sunday Night Football."
"We're right about where we expected to be," project executive Jack Hill said Wednesday as he ushered select media on a stadium tour.
Most of the heavy lifting appears done, and now it's as if they're putting lipstick on, well, a newly discovered supermodel.
Six months remain before the stadium hosts its first event: an Aug. 2 soccer game between the San Jose Earthquakes and Seattle Sounders FC.
The 49ers will play two exhibition games there in August before a probable two-week break ahead of its regular-season unveiling. (The NFL schedule typically is released in April.)
Two years after the stadium's groundbreaking, sod will be placed down in April, a strand of Bermuda called "Bandera" that's supposedly "shade tolerant" and able to "rebound quickly." The grass is being grown two hours east in Livingston, which is some 10 miles away from quarterback Colin Kaepernick's childhood home of Turlock.
Also in April, the final seats are expected to be installed, and team and stadium staff will begin moving into offices inside the stadium, which is a mere 13 feet from the 49ers' long-time training facility.
Here are other notes gleaned from the two-hour tour:
That behind-enemy-lines entrance conceivably could happen just for pregame warmups when the teams follow hallways adjacent to elite clubs so fans can see them. Both teams likely will come out through tunnels at opposing corners of the stadium, however, in pregame introductions, team president Paraag Marathe added.

Worried about your wedding dress being damaged before the big day, your cake supplier going bust or your wedding day being rained out? Theres insurance for that.
With the cost of the average Australian wedding reaching $54,000, brides and grooms are increasingly taking out insurance.
The products insurers are selling protect the wedding party against such events as severe weather, the bride or groom being struck down with a sudden illness, loss of wedding documents and damage to gazebos, staging, flooring, chairs, tables and so on.
Some products will also protect the bride and grooms home contents while away on their honeymoon if the home is burglarised and their wedding gifts are stolen.

Sejal Patel, who moved to Australia from England three years ago, spent about $200 on insurance to cover her destination wedding in Thailand in April.
In England theres insurance for everything - wedding insurance is much bigger, says Patel, who is preparing for her wedding in Phuket.
I probably got it because of the large cost of the wedding and Id heard of it. I assumed it was the normal thing to do.
In Thailand we have the hotel where we are having the wedding and there are multiple suppliers, so in case anything goes wrong we want to be covered.
We were also thinking about weather and if something happens to the hotel before we get there wed need to be covered.
