The Wettest Places in the World
Last week I blogged about a new potentially wettest location in the United States (and thus also Oceania). However, new data has come to my attention indicating that a site in New Zealand may be even wetter than Hawaii's wettest locations.
This is a brief survey of the wettest locations in the world. However, unlike Hawaii, it is difficult to find good up to date data for many of these locations. I have arranged the data by continents; from those with the wettest locations in the world to the 'driest-wettest' with the caveat of New Zealand.
A generalized map of global average annual precipitation.
Wettest locations in the World (Annual Average Precipitation)
Mawsynram, Meghalaya State, India 467.35"/11871 mm (wettest place in the world)
Cherrapunji, Meghalaya State, India 463.66"/11777 mm
Emei Shan, Sichuan Province, China 321.6"/8169 mm (wettest place in China)
Mawsynram (population about 350, elevation approximately 4,600') and Cherrapunji (population about 10,000, elevation 4,309' and also known as Sohra) are both located in the Khasi Hills on the Shillong Plateau of Meghalaya, India and are about 10 miles from one another. These are generally considered the wettest locations in the world for which there is measured data.
The Khasi Hills, wettest location in the world, are famous for the spectacular waterfalls that fall to the plains below. Photo source Wikipedia, photographer not identified.
The Khasi hills catch the full brunt of the southwest monsoon blowing off the Bay of Bengal between May and October. About 90% of their rain falls during this period. July alone averages over 120"/3050 mm, the highest monthly average rainfall in the world. Variability from one monsoon to another can be tremendous. Cherrapunji has had as much as 905"/22987 mm and as little as 282"/7163 mm in a single monsoon season (May–October) and as much as 1,041.78"/26461 mm in one year (August 1, 1860-July 31, 1861), a world record. What is amazing is that there was NO measurable rainfall that season (1860-1861) during November, December, February, and March (or the data was simply missing for those months—see table below).
Another world record, for monthly rainfall, was set here in July of 1861 when an astonishing 366.14"/9300 mm of rain fell (an average of 11.81"/300 mm for each day of the month!). The two-month period of June-July 1861 saw 502.63"/12767 mm of rainfall and the three-month period of May-July 644.44"/16369 mm (almost as much as the all-time annual record for Mt. Waialeale in Hawaii (683"/17347 mm)! An unverified source claims Mawsynram received 1,024.4"/26000mm) in 1985.
The mean of 463.66"/11777 mm at Cherrapunji is based on the POR of 1971-1990. Records here go back to 1851 (broken record) and the mean for the POR of 1851-1920 was 456.95"/11607 mm. For the POR of 2000-2010 Cherrapunji averaged 440.11"/11179 mm a year, and Mawsynram 477.88"/12138 mm.
This table shows the comparison of annual rainfall measured at Cherrapunji and Mawsynram between 1998-2010. Indian Meteorological Department.
For those interested in the actual raw data for Cherrapunji from 1851-1905 (there is a second page of data that continues to 1920 on page 247) I provide you with this table from 'World Weather Records', Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections Vol. 79, p. 246 published by the Smithsonian Institute in 1929.
South America
Tutunendo, Colombia 448.58"/11394 mm
Quibdo, Colombia 423.19"/10749
*(Lloro, Colombia estimate 523.6"/13300 mm)
The precipitation at Lloro is an estimated amount, the location being 14 miles southeast of Quibdo and at a higher elevation. Quibdo once recorded 781.06"/19839 mm in a single year, 1936. If the estimate for Lloro's wetter location is correct, one might assume that during 1936 over 1,100"/27940 mm would have fallen at Lloro, which would have constituted an annual world record for precipitation. A web site claims that Tutendo received 1,036.34"/26323 mm in 1974. This cannot be verified.
Detailed precipitation data, like periods of record, are very difficult to come by for Colombia. The Colombian meteorological service (Instituto de Hydrologia, Meteorologia y Estudios Ambientales-IDEAM) has an impenetrable web site that demands a complex and byzantine user access application form. So the record for Lloro or other wet spots in Columbia locations (like Tutunendo) cannot be verified by myself.
The Colombian meteorological service (IDEAM) posts this map on its web site of Columbia's average annual precipitation. Details are not available to the public.
Bahia Felix in Chile's Tierra del Fuego has an average of 325 days a year with rain, the most in the world for a permanently inhabited location (some of the wetter remote Hawaiian Island sites probably exceed this figure). Bahia Felix averages 166.33"/4225 mm of precipitation a year. It is estimated that the wettest locations in this region at elevated parts near the southern tip of South America may reach 200-250"/5000-6500mm per annum.
Oceania (excluding New Zealand—scroll down further)
Big Bog, Maui, Hawaii 404.40"/10272 mm
Mt. Waialeale, Kauai, Hawaii 384.35"/9763 mm
Kukui, Maui, Hawaii 365.87"/9293 mm
All of these locations are uninhabited near mountaintops on their respective islands. See my last blog for details on Hawaii's (and thus the U.S.A. and perhaps Oceania's wettest locations). The figures above represent the amounts measured for the 30-year POR of 1987-2007 although for Big Bog the data from 1977-1992 was estimated.
An old photo from 1933 shows workers next to the 900-inch (28860 mm) capacity rain gauge they set up near the summit of Mt. Waialeale, perhaps the wettest location in the U.S.A. Photo from USGS archives.
Ureca, Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea 411.42"/10450 mm
Debundscha, Cameroon 405.47"/10299 mm
The period of record for Ureca (also know as San Antonio de Ureca) was just 7 years during the 1930s or 1940s. Detailed precipitation data for Bioko Island (formerly known as Fernando Poo) in the Gulf of Guinea is no longer available. The wettest month is July when an average 86.81"/2205 mm of rain falls here.
Isohetyl map of Bioko Island (formerly Fernando Poo), a possession of Equatorial Guinea south of the coast of Cameroon. Ureca, on the southern tip of the island, is quite possibly the wettest location in Africa, and one of the wettest in the world. Map from 'Climates of Africa' World Survey of Climatology Vol. 10.
Debundscha, Cameroon is on the African mainland just north of Bioko on the coastline near Mt. Cameroon, a 13,435-foot peak (4095 meters). Deep moisture flowing in from the Gulf of Guinea and encountering Mt. Cameroon and the high peak of Bioko (Mt. Santa Isabel at 10,000 feet/3027 m) are what account for the extraordinary rainfall at these locations. Modern data is very hard to come by and the POR for Debubdscha is unknown. The figures I present here are from 'Climates of Africa' World Survey of Climatology Vol. 10, Elsevier Publishing Company, 1972 (pp. 284-289).

Another location of potentially extreme rainfall is the volcanic highlands of Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean some 500 miles/800kilometers east of Madagascar. I cannot discern average annual rainfall amounts for the wettest locations and the intense rainfall here is almost always associated with tropical storms that occasionally traverse the island. For instance 212.60"/5400 mm of rain fell in one week at Commerson on February 24-March 2, 2007 and 73.62"/1871 mm at Cilaos in 24 hours on March 15-16, 1952. Both are world records for their respective time frames (not to mention the 52.76"/1340 mm in 12 hours at Belouve on February 28, 1964).
For a comprehensive look at all the extraordinary rainfall events on Reunion Island see my book 'Extreme Weather: A Guide and Record Book'.
Australia and New Zealand
Bellenden Ker, Queensland, Australia 321.46" (8165 mm)
Bellenden Ker is located at an altitude of 5226 feet (1593 m) some 40 miles south of Cairns in Queensland. This is the 2nd highest mountain in the state. February is the wettest month with an average of 56" (1422 mm) of rainfall. A tropical storm in January 1979, produced almost 100" (2540 mm) of rain in just three days here and the total 212.09" (5387 mm) for that month is a record for Australia. In the year 2000, 490.59" (12461 mm) was measured, an annual record for the country. The POR for the average annual precipitation is for 1973-2011.
New Zealand
Cropp at Waterfall, South Island 453.38"/11516 mm
Milford Sound, South Island 245.2"/6228 mm
The gorgeous fiord of Milford Sound is one of New Zealand's most popular tourist destinations and also long considered the country's officially wettest location. It once received 22"/559 mm of rainfall in 24 hours on April 17, 1939. However, portions of the western Fiordland and Westland of the Southern Alps are estimated to receive as much as 630"/16000 mm of precipitation a year. If true some location there could be the wettest on earth.
Recent data for a RAWS site known as Cropps at Waterfall in Westland on the South Island (see map below) reported an average annual rainfall of 453.38"/11516 mm for the POR of 1982-2011. The location is situated at 43° 04'S, 171° 01'E. In 1998 the site reported 654.21"/16617 mm and for the 365-day period of Oct. 30, 1997-Oct. 29, 1998 and an amazing 724.60"/18405 mm. Its 24-hour record was 29.84"/758 mm on December 27-28, 1989. The site elevation is about 3,200'/975 m.
Here is a map showing the approximate location of Cropps at Waterfall, New Zealand, perhaps the wettest location on earth aside from the Khasi Hills of India. Map courtesy of the New Zealand National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) from where the data for Cropps at Waterfall was also obtained. NIWA is the equivalent of the NCDC to the NWS in U.S. parlance.
Bowden Pen, Jamaica 307.9"/7821 mm
The recent POR for Bowden Pen is not known. This record dates from the 1940-1970 period.
Annual rainfall is estimated to be as high as 400"/10160 mm on the highest mountain peaks of the Caribbean Islands of Guadeloupe and Dominica. No actual weather sites have been established in these areas, past or present.
North America
Henderson Lake, B.C., Canada 261.8"/6650 mm
Little Port Arthur, Alaska, U.S.A. 236.59"/6009 mm
Henderson Lake, British Columbia is located in the southwest of Vancouver Island on the south shore of Henderson Lake at an altitude of 20 feet (6 m). Its location is specified at 49° 2'N, 125° 1'W. Its wettest year on record was 1931 with 319.80"/8123 mm and wettest month December 1923 with 79.49"/2019 mm. The measurements were made at a fish hatchery that is no longer in operation. I do not know its complete POR, or the POR for the annual average precipitation mentioned above.
The POR for Little Port Arthur, Alaska is 1981-2010 for the figure presented, the most recent POR available, and makes this the wettest location in the United States outside of Hawaii. The site is located on the southern part of Baranof Island in southeast Alaska. Records here go back to 1936 although nobody seems to know much about the place. Its coordinates are 56° 23'N, 134° 39'W.
The wettest location in the contiguous United States, according to the latest NCDC records (POR 1981-2010), is 122.28"/3106 mm at Langlois, Oregon. Greater amounts are likely at isolated locations in the coastal mountain ranges of both Oregon and Washington.
Crkvica, Bosnia-Herzegovina 183.0"/4648 mm
The POR for this site is 22 years according to the WMO (exact years not provided). This site is located at 4298 feet (1310 m) in a mountain valley about 40 miles southwest of Sarajevo. There are probably wetter locations in Europe but nobody seems to have made any real effort to find such.
Crib Goch in Snowdonia, Wales U.K. is reported to average 168.58"/4282 mm a year (POR 1941-1970) making it the wettest location in Britain. However, British weather historian Stephen Burt comments further:
"In England, the central peaks of the Lake District are wettest, with an average annual rainfall something over 4000 mm/yr (157"). The gauge at Styhead (335 m AMSL) averaged 3947 mm/155.39" annually over 1941-70; the surrounding mountains receive perhaps 4500 mm/177"yr.
In Wales, the wettest places are around the summit of Snowdon, where a smaller area receives > 4000 mm/157"yr. The average at Llyn Llydaw may be very close to 5000 mm/197"yr.
In Ireland, there are several spots in Co. Kerry where the annual average exceeds 3000 mm/118"yr. Based upon the Met Éireann 1961-90 averages, the wettest gauged locations in Ireland were Mt Torc (Mangerton No. 3), at 808 m AMSL, at 3230 mm/127.16"yr, and Mt Ballaghbeama (311 m AMSL) with 3224 mm/126.93" annually. Both monthly gauges have over 50 years records.
Wettest of all are the mountains of western Scotland, where there are several areas with an annual average > 4000 mm/157"yr. The wettest is probably Glen Garry, where several gauges in the notoriously wet Kinlochquoich area received 4000-4200 mm/yr at even moderate altitudes, and some spots receive well over 5000 mm/197" most years. There are inevitable problems with rain gauges in remote, mountainous areas, not least the effects of snowfall and wind, but the records are probably as reliable and accurate as they can be, given the circumstances.
Except where indicated otherwise, all of these are based upon 1941-70 averages, which are the most recent rainfall averages to be published and mapped in any detail by the Met Office. Since that period western Scotland has become considerably wetter, and it's likely that more recent averaging periods will show average annual rainfall totals 20 per cent or more higher than the 1941-70 averaging period. The wettest gauged spots in western Scotland probably now receive around 5000 mm/197"yr, and the very wettest locations around 6000 mm/236".

Obviously, the above information would indicate that it is quite possible that there may be locations in the British Isles that are wetter than the currently accepted Bosnian record for such in Europe.
Melchior, Antarctic Peninsula 46.81"/1189 mm
This is actually a group of small islands located off the very northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula at 64°20' S and 62°59'W (about as far north as the frozen continent extends). The POR is for 1947-1960 and made by an Argentinean base that was located there at that time.
The small island group of the Melchiors (various spellings) is located near the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula, the continent's most northerly possession. The heart of the Antarctic continent is one of the driest locations on earth. Photo from Wikipedia, photographer unidentified.
The list below comprises all the wettest locations on earth that we have actual data for. This does not mean these are, in fact, the absolute wettest locations in the world. One may assume that there are even wetter spots beyond the reach of direct scientific observation and that over time certain places may become drier whereas others may become wetter.
The Top Ten Wettest Places in the World
1. 467.35"/11871 mm Mawsynram, Meghalaya State, India, Asia
2. 463.66"/11777 mm Cherrapunji, Meghalaya State, India, Asia
3. 463.40"/11770 mm Tutendo, Colombia, South America
4. 453.38"/11516 mm Cropp at Waterfall, New Zealand
5. 411.42"/10450 mm Ureca, Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea, Africa
6. 405.47"/10299 mm Debundscha, Cameroon, Africa
7. 404.40"/10272 mm Big Bog, Maui, Hawaii, Oceania
8. 384.35"/9763 mm Mt. Waialeale, Kauai, Hawaii, Oceania
9. 365.87"/9293 mm Kukui, Maui, Hawaii, Oceania
10. 321.60"/8169 mm Emei Shan, Sichuan Province, China, Asia
*(estimate 523.6"/13300 mm Lloro, Colombia, South America)

Next up for Ewan McGregor, currently starring in "Angels and Demons", is the "The Men who Stare at Goats", a new film from director Grant Heslov. We had the chance to ask McGregor about the movie, which also stars George Clooney and Kevin Spacey, at the press days for the abovementioned "Da Vinci Code" follow-up.
Says McGregor, "I play a journalist, at the beginning of the film whose wife, who's also a journalist in this small newspaper in Ann Arbor – The Ann Arbor Daily Telegram-cheats on him with her one-armed editor, Dave. And I see her flirting with him. But then she comes clean, and she's going to leave me for this one-armed man, Dave. And I, in my misery, take myself to Iraq. It's the beginning of the Iraq War. And I go to become embedded, but all I do is end up in a swanky hotel in Kuwait, and can't get into Iraq. I'm not embedded with any troops, so I'm stuck in this four-star hotel, having wanted to prove my manhood by going to war, you know? Where I meet George Clooney's character, and we embark on a kind of road trip through Iraq, looking for his buddies in this strange and secret section of the American Army. It's a very funny film, and I had such a lovely time working with George, and with Jeff Bridges and Kevin Spacey. And it was the four of us, and it was just hilarious. It was great fun."
The movie was shot in "Puerto Rico", the actor laughs, "Because it looks so much like Iraq."
Next for McGregor, "Will be a story with David Mackenzie set in Glasgow, which is meant to be Glasgow. And then a story with Mike Mills in LA, which is meant to be in LA. I hope. I mean, you know, you never quite know until they give you the go-ahead. LA can very easily become New Mexico, or very easily become Vancouver, you know? Before you know it. But hopefully it's going to be shot in LA."

You "aggresively" are Tcing to find new sports to get an insight
in what is happening. I had thew same question a few years ago. I
solved it by colecting all sports as published. The direct parent

You can believe in your heart but you need to move with your feet. If you're believing in your feet but your feet aren't moving, then your faith isn't going anywhere. You have a Secret Service kind of faith, a privatized kind of faith, not a public kind of faith. I like to say that everybody else is coming out of the closet. You might as well come out too. Everybody ought to know where you're coming from. When elections are held, we hold placards in our yards, on our cars. We go door to door to ask people to vote for our candidate. We discuss it around water coolers because we believe in a particular party, a particular candidate.
We want people to know why we believe what we believe about that particular person or that particular policy that that person holds. If we can do that for human candidates, what about the king of kings and the lord of lords? Doesn't he deserve to be advertised in our action, not just in our talk, but in our walk, not just in our lips but in our lives? He deserves to be broadcast in our daily conversations. Now I know there's an appropriate time, an appropriate place and an appropriate way to do it but it shouldn't be vague. It shouldn't be hidden. It shouldn't be unclear. It shouldn't be fogged over. It shouldn't be cloudy in our walk, how we related to people, treat people, how we try to serve people, pray for people and most importantly how we seek to share the gospel with people.
All of that are ways that we put our faith in action. Let me ask you a question. Who are you going to talk to today at home, in work, in your neighborhood, in your family, who are you going to serve today in any of those contexts that will show that you believe in Jesus Christ, that you are a committed Christian and that you want to show the love of Christ while giving people the opportunity to come into a relationship with Christ? You don't just want to show the love without the relationship but you don't want to talk about a relationship without showing the love because the two walk hand in hand. It's called word and deed, not just either or.
We're going to join you in putting your faith in action. I don't think I could be telling you something that I'm not willing to do or that we're not telling our own church to do. That is to put our faith in action. God bless you as you walk the talk, as you talk the walk, as you put your faith in action.
Dr. Tony Evans' newest book is titled, Destiny: Let God Use You Like He Made You. In it Dr. Evans shows us the importance of discovering our own God-given purpose and helps us discover the reasons why we are here.
God has ordained a custom-designed life for every believer that leads to the expansion of His kingdom. Until people discover the reason why they were uniquely created, they will be empty and frustrated. But a clear understanding of their personal assignment from God brings about their deepest satisfaction, God's greatest glory and the greatest benefit to others.

The consequences of years of such repetitive work surfaced in October 2012, when her hands would go numb and a painful cyst formed on her left wrist. She told her supervisor about the problem, but he said he couldn't do anything about it — Dora was a temporary worker hired through a staffing agency and so Great Kitchens wasn't responsible for addressing her injury.

Searching for safer chemicals – but safer for whom? New EPA flame retardants report highlights the dilemma
When a widely used chemical is identified as an environmental health hazard and targeted for phase-out and elimination, among the most challenging questions for those involved with making such a chemical are: What to use instead? and Will the replacement be safe? The US Environmental Protection Agency's report identifying alternatives to the flame retardant hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) illustrates how difficult those questions can be to answer.
Second 2014 worker fatality at Suncor Alberta oil sands facility highlights alarming industry death rate
Today is Workers Memorial Day. This post discusses one of the thousands of occupational fatalities that occur every year around the world. – On Sunday, April 20th, Shayne Daye, a 27-year old electrician and technician, died as a result of an injury sustained while working at Suncor's Oil Sands site about 15 miles north of Fort McMurray, Alberta in western Canada. Daye's death is Suncor Oil Sands' second workplace fatality of 2014. A look at the industry's record in Alberta suggests an alarming rate of occupational fatalities.

Expressive lines add character to the classical approach, making the glasses a must-have for women. Eyewear is in. Full rim is extremely popular, because you feel that you get more eyeglass for your money. It is not just about their resilience, but also about the visibility of material and design, which are of the highest quality. Rectangular models are particularly suitable for round and oval faces. The rectangular shape also builds a bridge to corners and edges from an image aspect. Plastic is a very lightweight and flexible material. This ensures a long life and a high level of comfort. Black is one of the undisputed classics. It can be combined with any outfit and simultaneously radiates elegance and naturalness.
With the help of our digital dispensing optician, your prescription lenses can be configured according to your own requirements. Anti-reflective and cleaning coatings, antistatic and lotus effect are included as standard for plastic lenses.

Exterior Design
The Flying Spur offers a spectacular presence from every conceivable angle. The combination of its bright, upright chrome grille, large jewel headlamps, sharp fender wing vents and athletic design lines deliver an unmatched road presence.
Definitive Differences
Step back and its performance capabilities shine through the classic Bentley power line that runs from the front wheel arch down the car's flank. Note the crisply defined bonnet crease and muscular rear haunches.
These singular lines are formed by employing the most advanced production techniques. Superforming, for instance, uses a combination of superheating and air pressure to form the metal, giving sharper definition to curves and clearer silhouettes.

To begin with, the correct parts are not included. Instead of returning it to the store, I purchased the correct parts and put the mower together. This model has no wheel adjustments. I have never seen one constructed this cheaply. On the box it touts that there are four cutting heights which is misleading. There are four holes on each wheel location and you can take your pick. Every time you would want to change the wheel height, you have to take all four wheels off and reinstall them. I positioned the wheels to drop the mower down as far as possible. Having not mowed my lawn for two weeks, the grass seriously needed cut. After mowing a strip, I could not even tell I had been over the grass except for the tracks the wheels left. Since I have used it, I cannot now take it back which is what I wish I had done when I discovered the parts were missing. Do not waste your money on this mower. I am going to Lowe's to buy another mower.
The mower is certainly worth the money. As for pros, the mower is LIGHT (I love that), has a very gas efficient engine, and simply cuts well. I like the simple, economical design; there isn't all this extra junk that weighs down the mower and creates the opportunity for more things to breakdown. Installation went very well; it was easy and straight forward; took no more than 30 min. Also, the engine turns on very easily. Here goes the cons: 1. NO choke, NO automatic adjustment for wheel height; you have to remove the bolts each time. Speaking of which, the bolts that came with my mower would go on REALLY tight (had a unique design); so I would recommend using your own since you'll be adjusting the wheel height. Also, it appears that for the first several minutes that the mower is own, lifting it, or going up an incline causes the engine to choke, perhaps due to a lack of gas feeding into the engine. Also, tilting the mower over on its side with the exhaust causes gas to leak out, so avoid that. So far I've mowed several times, and the mower has been running great. Note: it's important to keep the blade nice in sharp because the engine isn't that strong.
I bought this lawn mower and after getting it together I put oil in it and found out that there was a leak in the oil tank. After draining the oil I took it back to Wal-Mart and exchanged it. I brought the second one home and set it up and found that oil was not included - oil was included in the first one. I had to go back to the store and buy oil.
The second mower also had obviously been put together and returned because it had scratches of green paint (it's a grey mower) on the base and the nuts had paint stripped off. But it worked well and cut the small part of the lawn that I needed it for without a problem.
I agree with other reviewers that this was a little intense to put together. It wasn't horrible and only took about fifteen minutes, but I think it required more tools than the average person buying a cheap lawn mower will have around the house and the directions had diagrams that were backwards and included a lot of instructions for other models. I would not try to put this together without using the correct tools.
Sorry, no matter what others may post/review here, mine and other's experiences seem similiar. IF you are one the purchasers of this mower and had little to no problems assembling it, then great. I bought mine 06/15/2012, and it sits in my garage, probably waiting to be returned. Cannot get the wheels bolted on; I would strip the hex bolt if I continue to to try to "force" it to turn w/ the wheel screw. Agreed w/ one reviewer; very confusing instructions, combining several models in one manual. WHAT?? Parts do not seem to fit together, and I suspect some parts may be missing. IF an option was to buy an already assembled mower, then sure, great, I'd take it/buy it, etc. But having to assemble this? Those wheels have thwarted my enthusiam, and if I have any further issues, it goes back. Dissapointed, as I was looking forward to using it. Hmm...Murray Co. wonder how many customer complaints you've received on this model. Overall, I would not recommend this one, unless it was already assembled, or you had the option of having it put together by a employee.
I did not have a problem putting this mower together. Then again I did look at all the manuals before I started. In one of the smaller ones it gave instructions on putting it together. Granted it depended on which model you had, but was not hard to figure out...that is if you stopped to think about it and read the manual. The mower was impressive and was just what I needed, simple and cut grass....even wet grass. Which I done on purpose just to test it out. On my mower I do have to press the primer about 6 times for it to start, but when it does I have a hard time bogging it down. If you want a great basic mower grab one. I am happy I did. Take Care!
I really don't understand why people are complaining about how hard this mower is to put together. My 13 year old brother and I put this together in 30 minutes. It's narrow enough for me to fit between our flower beds, and lightweight enough for me to mow the gigantic bank out in front of my house. I could care less that it's simple and you have to propel it, if I want something that propels itself I'll just get on my riding mower.
Purchased this mower on March 15, 2012, assembled myself with some difficulty, but pleased with end result. Mower started right up, and ran great, doing good job cutting. After using for 7 hrs total running time, since couple days after putting mower into service, without warning, or any previous problems, will start with minimal priming, but stops after only about five seconds. Mower will start, but will not run, at all now. I have been using same basic model mower, different brands sold by different stores since the mid 1970's (last couple mowers were sold by Walmart#, getting an average of about ten years out of each mower, without problem. This one is the first one to refuse to run at all, after only less than 8 hrs of use. All previous mowers I've ever used had Briggs & Stratton engines. We still have a Weedeater mower purchassed in 2009, and it's still running good #recently had maintenance pulled on it, but that's expected, especially after about two years of constant use (several times per months during cutting season)) Will be taking back this Murray to the store today.
this mower is great, lightweight, and easy to maneuver. i bought it this month because my murray from 2001 croaked on me and so far i have only used this once because most of the grass is still dormant here.
the instructions was not in the box but it went together with a snap i didn't have no problems out of it i filled it with oil and gas and it started 1st pull with 3 primes.
i recommend this mower to anyone wanting a basic lawnmower who has a small yard or needs something to trim around the house with.
I bought this mower at WalMart last night, put it together this morning, just got done mowing the grass. I've had better assembly instructions before ... a more model-specific manual would help, or just a picture of the assembled mower (found online). Someone mentioned ill-fitting bolts. I'll bet these are the wheel bolts. They offered incredible resistance to the nut - so much that I thought I had it cross-threaded. But no, all the bolts & nuts are like that - they just go on rough. Everything else snapped into place fine. The mower takes the full bottle of oil provided. It started on second pull & mowed just like it was supposed to. Of course the jury's still out on the long-term, but for now I am quite satisfied.
I bought one of these mowers today not expecting much of it but I was surprised it cut alot better then I thought it would .
The instructions threw me off some but I figured it out after about half hour or so .
It came with enough oil to fill it up and i fill up the gas tank ,,, primed the carb. a few times and started mowing .
Overall i am pleased with it being a cheap mower . I even tryed it out in tall grass and was surprised it never bogged down or cut out .
So if your looking for a Inexpensive mower I would recommend this one for the price and cutting ability .
I was looking for the least expensive mower I could find to cut the trim in my yard. This mower is great for that (though I wouldn't recommend it for a much larger area). As usual, the manual was for several different models, so the exact directions were a little difficult to find, but using a little logic helps. The mower started right up and cut evenly. I'm assuming that it's just a characteristic of these mowers (since I've experienced the same thing with a very similar mower), but the engine seems to vary in speed when you're mowing. Also be aware, the adjustable cutting height is a very manual thing. You have to take the wheels completely off and move them to a different hole to adjust the cutting height. It took me a couple of tries to find the height I wanted. But I'm satisfied - the mower does what it should and at a great price.
I have assembled one of these Murrays in the past, and frequently put together products at home, but Seldom have as much Trouble as I did with this thing. The Instruction manual, for Multiple Mowers with various options, was ridiculously Confusing. Worst of all were the nuts for the wheel bolts which Seemed like the Wrong Size. I finally Forced them on, since it would have been a Headache to Repackage & Return.. Then, I had to come to the Walmart website just to see a full picture of this mower, as a point of reference for the handle details, etc, And to see that Many Others had the same Issues. Hopefully it will work great, or it's going back!
When looking for a cheaper mower for our small yard we decided to check out the online review for this product first and after sorting out the people that didn't like the packaging or weren't good at self assembly we felt like this product really was a 4 out of 5 mower. our only issue was that to lower the mower you have to remove the wheels but besides that its a great value, easy to put together and all metal.
After owning and returning a $300 Swisher Wheeled Trimmer to mow around my pond and under some cedar trees and other trimming areas, I decided to try this mower.
- Very Quiet
- Nice Cut
- Starts and Runs Easily
- Pretty Lightweight to push
- No where on the box, machine, or item description does it tell you the cutting height lengths
- Wheels have to be removed to change the cutting height
I purchased the 3 yr. extended warranty because it was cheap and being a single lady, I don't want to mess with another headache like I did with the stupid Swisher I bought. So far, I've owned this little mower about two months and use it regularly. It usually starts on the first pull and cuts very nice. Just make sure to push in the primer bulb at least 3x, as instructed, before you start it the first time, though I have had to push a few more, but it still always starts quite easily. Very happy with this purchase and have no hesitations about recommending it to others with small yards, tight spaces or those in need of a trimming type mower.
Got this home from Walmart. Opened it up and read thru the instruction manual and like other reviewers on here, agree the manual is quite confusing as it is generic for their various brands of mowers.
One of the harder things to do was to tighten the nuts for the wheels. I then Remembered what other reviewers said about it, I accepted this situation. Otherwise, I might have thought about returning the mower. I wish the manual would have just added a note to tell the customers it was normal to be hard to tighten the wheel nuts.
The other parts got installed okay though I had to skip some parts of the manual where it did not seem applicable to this particular model mower. Instructions should have been updated when parts get changed.
Still I was able to assemble it with all the pieces provided, I believe.
Filled it up with included oil bottle, filled up the gas tank.
Primed the button three times and was able to start it with one or two pulls.
Motor seemed to run weak/slow, but it seemed strong enough to cut the damp grass okay. Or the blade was sharp enough to do the job even with a slow motor.
I will need to adjust the wheels later to make it lower to the ground as I put it n the upper middle hole which now is too high for my grass.
After done mowing, I tilted it on its side (side catcher up) to clean the blade and inside. After I set it upright, noticed gas leaking on that side. Then remembered a reviewer saying this and knew I should have rememered this point better. After cleaning off the gas again and trying to start it again, gas kept coming out that side.
I hope eventually the gas will clear out and I can re-mower again in the coming weeks.
For now I will just store it and hope for the best.. we'll see...
So, notwithstanding these issues, the mower did seem strong enough to cut the grass and not die on me.. time will tell.
We bought this, and the starter wouldn't even pull out properly from the mower. It had dings on it, and the instructions were atrociously confusing. Also, parts were missing. I would strongly recommend you buy something else.
My husband and I were looking for a reasonably priced mower for our small lawn. Unfortunately, we had problems from THE VERY beginning. First of all, the assembling process was terrible: had a manual/instructions for a different model, had incorrect parts, etc. After using it twice, it began to stall after 10 seconds of starting it. And when it did work and was usable, it seemed to be at a very low power, as if it was clogged. At that time, I replaced the filter and spark plug thinking that this would solve the issue. It worked well for 5 minutes and would then just turn completely off.
I would not recommend this to anyone. Spend the extra few dollars to get a more durable, efficient lawn mower....It will save you time & energy!
Returned to store because parts were missing, or wrong for mower. Asked associate to open new box to make sure it had the right things, and it was exactly the same. Nuts that wouldn't fit with the bolts.
Don't waist your time!!
Hadnt bought a new push mower in yrs. Things have changed for the worse. I saw mowers with half plastic bodies bolted on. Geez..Then i saw this murray with a metal body. Put it together in the order of the instructions & at the end discovered theres no throttle control. I knew it didnt have a throttle cable but i assumed it had a control at the carb (I had a mower like that once). Some newer junk mowers have a gov but his one is fixed throttle. Was gonna return it right then but my wife talked me into putting oil & gas in it & givin it a try. Ha! There i was with a mower running about wide open with no way to control it & the slightest pressure upward on the handle caused the blade hit the frame. The more pressure i applied to the handle the worse the blade hit the frame. I watched the frame as i added pressure & i could see the frame flexing where the handle connects. CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG..Rapidly too because you cant turn it down. Shut it off & looked underneath & could see where the blade had been beating the frame. Flimsy junk. I dont care if Murray calls it an "economy", who wants a flimsy mower with the blade hitting the frame & who wants a mower without a throttle control? I want a rugged 20" to do trim, ditchlines & in gravel driveways but theyre all junk nowdays for less than 200$ or more, wheather its Murray or another brand. Returned this one 2 days after purchasing it.

You need not ever add me, or respond to this message. I don't want you to respond. Just give yourself some time to read it all the way through, even piece by piece through a day here or there.
No matter what you would or ever could say, I know you will always feel incomplete without me at some level of your being. You will never be able to hide from it and you will never be able to get away from it going to anyone else. I have loved you more than anyone else ever could or ever will. You know it inside. It doesn't mean I am better or worse than anyone else.
But there is only one solution for this hole you feel in yourself with me. It just seems like one solution really, but here is something needed to be said - We are not suppose to be together this lifetime and who knows maybe never again for this creation. There is something that you do need to do which all comes down to your own choice. Realize that it isn't about relationships at all really. Relationships can come and go. It is about enjoying life.
How are we suppose to enjoy life when it constantly seems so painful or unfulfilling at times? There is one solution which is hard to hear for a lot of us, but it isn't even hard really. Many people have "created" many rules about it, which is spirituality. Spirituality isn't about being a monk. It is realizing we all have a special unique purpose. There isn't one religion to turn to because we are (created something that worked for us at that time) "the religions" (but it can be good to study from time to time to obtain some insight).
The only true thing that can free the soul and bring an ultimate freedom is to find (It don't like the word we use for it) God in yourself. God is every where. God is all duality of life.
Here is a thing to think about. Ask God any question.... Anything..
Why are you making things hard on me?
Why me? Is there really a God?
Am I just creating my reality every day?
How can I calm my nerves?
How can I find the ultimate peace? Or ultimate love of everything in the universe?
Can I be connected to everything in the universe even now? Can I ever allow myself to surrender to god?
Or must I always feel alone and have to do it all myself and not trust anyone? Is anything really ever permanent anyways? yada yada yada
Now you can ask God to show you things in your dreams before you go to bed, because I know you hated meditation. You could experience something profound, or nothing at all. If there isn't anything, then just means you probably really need to really "want" it. You have to want it enough, to be connected to spirit in some way. You are testing yourself.
Our emotions are like a ball of emotion and you may feel a rush when you throw it up, but it always comes down (and we never like the downs in life). Emotions and thoughts tend to be like waves. We create them all, so why would you hate any of your created emotions and thoughts? Even about others or our self?
Something I have learned about problems - we create them, especially if we are creating our own universe we live in. So we can start saying and believing "there are no problems". We may just get a rush of problems to overcome our old beliefs.
You could dismiss this whole email, but there is somewhere in your intuition a whisper about it. We tend to reject a lot of things in life. Spirituality is different for everyone, but the key is to be it and want it (and it doesn't mean you have to follow any one elses foot steps, but there have been others who have tools you could use). It is living it and allowing yourself to be free in yourself. You are god and you need to just sometimes to say "no matter what is happening in my life or how I respond, I love myself right now".
Anyways... Dismiss this whole email. Never listen to a word I say. Never ever miss me. Never love anyone. Never, Never, Never - lol But in the end it is great to find peace and a real true love in yourself (if the outside world is the illusion if the senses then why do we cling on to it so much?). Why are we addicted to what others say or how others feel about us. We may eventually see that perhaps they are another aspect of God in us.
If I would ever want anything for you it is that - Find true love and peace in yourself. It doesn't come easy but the more it is practiced the more you can feel it in yourself and possibly see it in reality. We can then feel a Joy which we have forgotten we have. Why would God be anything but love for us all? That's all I have wanted to say to you.
Love you much - everything changes every day (the only thing guaranteed in life is change),

Published: January 11, 2014 - 10:03 PM | Updated: January 12, 2014 - 12:37 PM
MELBOURNE, Australia: One by one, Serena Williams is matching the feats of tennis' greatest legends.
Her next challenge comes at the Australian Open, which starts Monday with Williams seeking her 18th Grand Slam title — an accomplishment that would match Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert.
"It would mean a lot to be on the same level as such great players," Williams said in a news conference Saturday, quickly adding a dash of humility. "I still have a lot of work to do. I obviously want to reach that level, but I'm not there yet."
"Hopefully, I'll get there," she added.
The No. 1-ranked, No. 1-seeded player is entering the new season after a spectacular year. In 2013, Williams won 78 of her 82 matches including the French Open and the U.S. Open. She earned more than $12 million in prize money, a record for women's tennis.
At 32, an age where most pro players are in decline, Williams is playing the best tennis of her career, says Navratilova, who predicts that Williams will win in Melbourne and go on to eclipse Steffi Graf's 22 major titles in the Open era.
"If she can stay healthy, there's no doubt she can go into the 20s. The sky is the limit," Navratilova said.
In terms of Grand Slam titles, no woman playing professional tennis today comes close. In a distant second place is Williams' big sister, Venus, who won seven major titles during a career that is waning because of age, injuries and an autoimmune disease. Venus' last Grand Slam win came at Wimbledon in 2008.
No. 2 Maria Sharapova, a four-time Grand Slam winner, is coming back after playing just one post-Wimbledon match in 2013 due to hip and shoulder injuries.
She sat out the last two months of the 2013 season and says she is nursing her shoulder with "precautionary" anti-inflammatories at times.
"I'm happy to be back playing a Grand Slam," said Sharapova, who tore her rotator cuff in two places in 2008, requiring surgery that sidelined her for a year. "I'm happy to get myself back in form and really start well here."
The player who is considered the greatest threat to Williams is No. 2 Victoria Azarenka, the two-time Australian Open defending champion. Williams has defeated Azarenka in 14 of their 17 matches — but Azarenka has excelled recently in Melbourne where Serena has won five titles but none since 2010.
Asked why she has stumbled in Melbourne in recent years, Williams half-joked: "I just wasn't able to stay on two feet. Literally."
Last year, Williams tumbled to the court in her first-round match after turning her right ankle. She was then upset in the quarterfinals by Sloane Stephens.
Williams got a strong start to the new season, with back-to-back wins over Sharapova and Azarenka this month in Brisbane. She beat Sharapova in the semifinals and overcame Azarenka in the final.
In Melbourne, Williams will only get the chance to play one of them. Azarenka and Sharapova are on the opposite side of the draw from Williams and could end up playing in the semifinals.
Sharapova's first-round match is against Bethanie Mattek-Sands on Tuesday, when Azarenka faces Johanna Larsson of Sweden.
Williams has 2011 U.S. Open champion Sam Stosur and two-time Australian finalist Li Na in her half of the draw.
On Monday, she plays 153rd-ranked Australian Ashleigh Barty, 17,who was trying to look on the bright side.
"I'm just going to go out there and enjoy it," Barty said. "Not every day do you get the opportunity to play the No. 1 player in the world and one of the greatest champions of all time. I'm really excited for the challenge."

Click here for Giants' midseason awards »
The New York Giants' title defense has gotten off to a strong, and perhaps fortunate, start.
They are 6-2 at the halfway point and are riding a four-game winning streak. They have dominated at times, such as in their wins over Carolina and San Francisco.
They've needed dramatic fourth-quarter comebacks against Washington and Dallas. They've had controversy, such as the kneel-down episode with Tampa Bay, and they also laid an egg in their season opener.
The Giants look like a team that can win it all again, but they are definitely a team capable of lackluster starts and head-scratching losses.
In other words, the Giants are where they usually are at this point in the season.
The Giants believe they are a better team than what they've shown thus far. They'll certainly get a chance to prove just how good they can be with games remaining against Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Green Bay, Washington, New Orleans, Atlanta, Baltimore and Philadelphia.
By the time the toughest schedule in the NFL is complete, we'll know just how good the Giants really are.
"We've still got a long way to go," co-owner John Mara said. "And you earn your money in the second half of the season."
Giants' midseason awards
Offensive MVP: Manning. Even when he struggles, the league's most clutch quarterback can deliver a 77-yard game-winning bomb at any point.
Defensive MVP: Pierre-Paul. Something tells us he is just starting to get warmed up.
Special-teams MVP: Tynes. He has nailed four or more field goals in a game four times already, and his only misses are a blocked field goal and a 54-yarder.
Most improved: Andre Brown. He has five touchdowns and has shown he can handle the load if Bradshaw gets hurt.
Least improved: Jernigan. Failed to capitalize on opportunity in camp and might have to wait for a chance next season unless there are injuries.
Biggest surprise: Stevie Brown. Former seventh-round pick of the Raiders leads NFL in takeaways.
Biggest disappointment: Rivers. When healthy, has shown glimpses of potential and athleticism.
Best rookie: Wilson. Electrifying on kickoff returns, and we still want to see more of what he can do on offense.
Best offseason acquisition: Locklear. From backup to full-time starter.
Worst offseason acquisition: Adderall. This banned performance-enhancing substance has claimed two safeties and nearly Andre Brown, too.
Best-kept secret: Joseph and Hynoski. Unsung yet key cogs.
Biggest concern: Health. The Giants can't afford too many more injuries to the secondary.
Key to the second half: If there is another annual midseason swoon, the Giants must contain it and not let it spiral out of hand.
Best coaching move: Motivational tactics aside (remember nobody giving them a chance to win in SF?), Coughlin's preparing Locklear to play both right and left tackle in camp has been essential.
Worst coaching move: Even Coughlin confessed he should've run one more play in Philadelphia to get a closer crack at potential game-winning FG.
Game to watch: All eyes will be on their game against Atlanta, but something tells us there will be plenty on the line in the season finale against Philadelphia with the Cowboys and Redskins also playing each other that day.
Giants will win the division if: They win four to five more games and beat the Eagles at home.
Only way they miss the playoffs is: If the Giants suffer a serious injury or a second-half meltdown, they could fall behind in the ultracompetitive NFC. Dallas, Washington or Philadelphia could get hot as well.
Player ready to emerge: Canty. Ready to provide the defensive front with much-needed muscle and size.
Player least likely to return in 2013: Umenyiora. Not because the Giants wouldn't want him back, but because the defensive end will be looking for one final payday.

Hi, I have the simplest question to which I cannot find the answer to
When adding label
import qnx.fuse.ui.text.Label;
var label:Label = new Label(); label.text = "Hello World"; label.width = label.textWidth; addChild(label);
I know that the width = 0 since textWidth doesn't return the actual width of the text right after it have been set. However, if I simply addChild(label), the text is cut off since the label doesn't automatically resize itself... How would I go about auto sizing the label?
Merry Christmas Eve everyone!
12-24-2012 01:14 PM - edited 12-24-2012 01:52 PM
yes, it seems a slightly bizarr implementation - by default a label seems to have a width of somthing like 90 and since it will truncate your text, the textWidth it returns will never be more than this default width ...
Here is a way around that:
var label:Label = new Label(); // give it all the space you can, to let it do the initial layout without trunkation label.width = stage.stageWidth; label.text = "Hello World"; addChild(label); // force rendering label.validateNow(); // now shorten the label to what is really needed label.width = label.textWidth;
There might be a more elegant solution, but this seems to work.
The last line assumes that you can reasonably expect the label to be shorter than the availalble width.
I guess, something like this would be better - just to be safe ...
// now shorten the label to what is really needed or truncate to available width
label.width = Math.min(myLabel.textWidth, stage.stageWidth);

Authorities identify victim in Fond du Lac County accident
Fond du Lac County authorities have released the name of the 59-year-old man who died when a teenager backed a vehicle into a garage in the town of Ashford on Saturday night.
The Fond du Lac County Sheriff's Office said Monday that Robert M. Stahl of Campbellsport died when the 17-year-old boy, also of Campbellsport, attempted to back a vehicle out of a driveway and instead hit a closed-door garage at 7:48 p.m. Officials said alcohol was not a factor in the crash, which remains under investigation.
Three people gathered inside the garage were injured and taken to St. Agnes Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The driver wasn't injured.
No information was immediately available on whether the driver had been charged.

Rated 5 out of 5 by alwaysatassimofan from Best of the Earl Grays When I drank Earl Grey tea made with loose tea or teabags I used to get a bit of indigestion sometimes and now I am thinking that it just steeped too long, this Earl Gray made for Tassimo machines is smooth, not heavy, and just the right strength and temperature for sipping since the water it is made with comes out of the Tassimo steamy but not boiling. No more waiting for water to boil or heating water in the microwave (awful). This t disc makes the best Earl Grey ever and it is super fast, too.

I have 2 types a Earl Grey Tea
I have 2 types of Earl Grey Tea, 1 disc says on the front of is "Earl Grey Tea" and the new one says "Artificial Flavor Tea". Did Tassimo change the formulation of the tea and what prompted the name change on the disc. Is the tea itself artificially flavored or is the substance flavored to taste like tea but not really tea? Thank you
Hello John. The formula for Twining's Earl Grey Tea has not changed. The ingredients are: tea and artificial flavoring. Thanks for asking.

Artificial items
I've been using your machine for over a year. This is my last shipment, I plan to go back to making lattes & teas, although yours is easier, I want drinks that are natural. All my food is natural/organic. It's past time Tassimo caught up and at the least offered a line of these products. People who spend this much money on coffee one has to make are usually well educated, as such, we expect to put healthy natural products in our bodies, coffee/lattes/teas too
Hello, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. I'll be certain to share your comments with our Team. Have a great day!

artificial flavor?
Hi I'm new to Tassimo and I saw some comments about the Earl Grey being artificially flavored. If that's true, it's quite disappointing. I do not like artificial anything in my foods/drinks. Why would you choose to do that? I see the Suchard Chocolate is also artifically flavored. I"m a bit baffled and not pleased to hear this.
Hello LoveTeaLynn, thank you for reaching out to us. Although chemical names of synthetic flavorings are complex, the vast majority of these substances are chemically identical to naturally occurring flavor substances in foods. The only difference is that they are man-made. In some instances, extensive consumer taste tests showed that artificial flavors were preferred. All colors and flavors added to our products are used consistently with the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) and Canadian Food Inspection (CFIA) regulations. Colors and flavors are used at the minimum amount to achieve the desired effects. Our Twining's Earl Grey T-Disc uses both natural and artificial flavorings. We hope that this information has been helpful and have a great day!
