Introduction: Repair a Broken Crock Pot Lid
I think everyone has broken a crock pot lid at some point, I am no exception. I called the company after I broke mine and found that they won't replace the lid if you broke it out of your own stupidity (and in this case, I did).
Then I searched the internet and learn that you can't purchase a replacement lid.
So, at the time we fixed it with foil, but it was ugly and I was never really happy with that fix. I got inspired to fix it differently when my husband brought home around 1000 zip ties last weekend.
With a few of those zip ties and little creativity, here is my crock pot lid fix.
Step 1: Tools
Here is the complete list of what I used:
- 5" Zip Ties
- 8" Zip Ties
- 11" Zip Ties
- 26 gauge Copper Wire
- 60 Square Jump Rings
- 2 Small Screw Drivers (one Philips and one Flat Head)
- Needle Nose Pliers
- Wire Cutters (for cutting zip ties and copper wire)
- Super Glue
- Metal Oval Frame from original lid
- Plastic Handle from original lid
To make this replacement I purchased a lot of different size zip ties. Lucky they are cheap. They come in bags of 100, but I didn't use that many. In total, minus the ones I scraped as my design advanced, I used 14 of the 5" zip ties, 32 of the 8" zip ties and 10 of the 11" zip ties.
A word to the wise, the zip ties say they can handle a heat up to 185 degrees. Check the ones you are using before going to all this work, and keep this in mind when you are using it, no one wants melted zip ties in their food. I will probably use this crock pot to keep bread buns and things like that warm just to be safe.
Step 2: Prep the Old Lid
The first good thing about this replacement is that we kept the original metal frame and handle from the broken lid. There is a channel all the way around on the inside of this frame, where the glass was held in the metal frame. This lip needs to be cleaned and any glass fragments removed. The glass used on my lid was safety glass, meaning that it is supposed to be less likely to break, or less likely to pose a threat when broken. This means I am less likely to cut myself removing the small chucks that are still in the metal frame. FYI, I did say less likely, this is still sharp and overconfidence leads to small paper cut like slices on your knuckles. Regardless of what the glass is, these cuts HURT. So take your time on this step and think about wearing gloves.
To remove the glass, I used a small screwdriver in the channel and chiseled away at the glass chucks. Probably not the best option but it worked for me with no special tools. Make sure to throw all those chunks away, as no one wants to step on them later.
Step 3: Creating a Hook and Loop Inside the Channel.
Once the channel is completely clean, you need some way to attach the zip tie weave to the metal cover. I found that the small 5" zip ties fit inside the channel and with a little copper wire, I could create a loop for the zip tie weave. I will call this the hook and loop, cause. . . well why not.
- Begin by cutting off the head and the tail of an 5" zip tie. This leaves only an even width chuck of plastic flat on one side and ratcheted on the other, that fits inside the metal channel. I used 6 of these total to wrap all the way inside the metal channel of my lid. Each lid will probably be a little different.
- I also, cut one extra to help wrap the copper wire and leave enough room for the jump rings to fit.
- Take two of the zip ties that you just cut and place smooth sides together. Wrap the copper wire around the zip ties as shown in the pictures, don't pull this tight, you don't want to be binding the zip ties together. I had no science to the number of wire wraps per zip tie, or how close they should be placed. I went with a gut feeling of about a 3mm to 6mm apart. The jump rings were 7mm wide and I wanted to have 2 loops of the wire to hold each jump ring. This seems to work well.
-As you come to the end of the first zip tie pull on the top piece of the zip tie sandwich leaving the metal wire and one zip tie behind, do not remove this second zip tie, it will help you continue your looping, only pull it about half way. You should now have a single zip tie with a loosely wrapped wire and room to add another piece of cut zip tie. You can see this in the pictures attached. I used a black and a white zip tie so they are easier to see.
If you were not already aware, there is a smooth side of a zip tie and a ratchet side. If you place the 2 ratchet sides together during the steps above, you will not be able to slide one piece forward and you will get frustrated, very frustrated. . . . Start over.
- You will now need to start pressing the single wire wrapped zip tie into the metal channel. I used a small flat head screw driver to help position the zip tie and push it into the channel. Press about half the length of the zip tie into the channel, then start wrapping the second cut zip tie with wire.
-After the second tie is wrapped about halfway, push the first zip tie all the way into the channel and the start of the second tie. The trick here is that you want to keep the zip ties butted up against each other in the channel, so it is like one long gasket. And you want to keep the wire wrapped so it isn't too loose. Continue until you have wrapped this all the way around and the channel is now full.
Your Hook and loop is now created and installed into the metal frame!
Step 4: Jump Rings
With the Hook and loop in place I decided to place jump rings on the loops so the zip ties would lay flat. This way, ideally the zip ties would attach to the jump rings and create a pretty flat weave.
One thing I learned, use thicker jump rings. The ones I used I found at Joann Fabrics and they work, but they are thin metal and easy to bend, thus in later steps when you are creating the zip tie weave, they flex and can come off the wire. This was very frustrating. Using a stronger square jump ring, would have allowed me to pull on the zip tie without constantly flexing the jump rings.
- Using a set of needle nosed pliers I opened a jump ring, placed it on two wire loops from the hook and loops we just made and tightened the jump ring back to square.
Since I didn't pay a lot of attention to the distance on the wire when I created the wire loops and pushed the 5" zip ties into the frame, each loop is at a distance of its own choosing. I tried to always have at least two loops per jump ring. This way they would assist the zip tie in being flat. Some jump rings were actually attached to 3 loops, others only 1. Just depended on where the spacing was.
Make sure in the end that you used an even number of jump rings. After all each zip tie needs two points of contact, so two jump rings each, preferably right across from each other, but hey that depends on how picky you are during the building of the hook and loop. Since there were 50 jump rings in a bag I used a complete bag, then counted out a few at a time of the second bag, I used a total of 60 jump rings. Again each lid will be different.
Step 5: Super Glue
At this point I tried to start the zip tie weave, but found that since the hook and loop gasket is just pushed into the channel, will not stay in place when you start the weave and annoyingly kept popping out. To resolve this issue I decided to super glue the zip tie connections in the hook and loop, a little glue on the metal frame helped too. This simple step will help resolve many head aches.
Make sure to keep the jump rings out of the glue or move them around as the glue dries so they are loose and pliable. Work around the entire channel and glue any spaces where two zip ties connect. In my case I used 6 zip ties, so I had 6 connections to glue.
Now impatiently wait for glue to dry. If it is cold in the garage that day, impatiently wait longer. . . .
Step 6: Vertical Zip Tie Lines
Now that the super glue is dry and the hook and loop is securely in place, you can begin the zip tie weave.
I chose to start in the middle of the longest edge. Depending on what design you are going for, you may want to start somewhere else. Take a little string and play with ideas on how you want yours to look, then when you have a plan, start using zip ties.
Here is how my plan played out:
- Starting on what looked to be the middle of one side of the longest edge I inserted an 8" zip tie down through the square jump ring and pulled it through, all the way to the ratchet head.
- Then I needed to count around the jump rings, to the half way point on the other side. In this case I used 60 jump rings, so half way was 30. I inserted the other end of the same zip tie up into the 30th jump ring. Now the zip tie spans the whole distance. And the ratchet head and open end both face up through the square jump rings.
- Taking a second 8" zip tie, connect it to the mounted zip tie, on top of the frame. Don't pull very tight yet, you can work on the shape of the lid in a few, start by just getting a few zip ties mounted.
A simple note, remember this is a lid, and that the lid must sit on the crock pot, thus these zip tie ratchet heads, must all be on 1 side of the lid (the top side). A the metal ring should rest on the crock pot when you put on the lid. I didn't think about this until after that fact on my lid.
- Next inserted a zip tie down through the jump ring to left of the one you just attached to the frame, staying vertical on the first zip tie. Insert the end of the zip tie up into the jump ring to the left of the one already mounted. Creating a second vertical line.
- Attach the second zip tie to the mounted zip tie, on top of the frame that you just pulled through.
- Now go one zip tie to the right of the first one you attached and install the next vertical line.
- Continue going one zip tie to the left and then right, until you have completed vertical zip tie lines all the way across the longest side of the lid. There will be a point when the curve is too tight to get the zip ties to lay flat. In my case I found that the smaller 5" zip ties were long enough to span the distance, and since they are not as wide, I could fit them on the edges. Thus I have 2 lines of the thinner 5" zip ties on each sides.
- After the vertical lines have been installed you can tighten the zip ties. Keeping in mind that this is a lid, I let the center of the lid be slightly taller and it curved down as it went out. The bottom lays flat.
You should now have something that resembles Shredders mask from Teenage Mutation Ninja Turtles, Well maybe not, but it does look weird.
Step 7: Zip Tie Weave
Now for the horizontal lines. Since my lid is not large I don't have many horizontal lines, In fact I could only fit 5.
- Using a long 11" zip tie, find the center of the unused square jump rings. I had 13 squares on each side, so center was 7.
- Insert a long zip tie down through the center square jump ring (my #7) and pulled it partially through.
- Now weave the end of the zip tie over the first vertical zip tie, and under the next. Continue the up and down weaving through all the zip ties all the way across the lid.
- When you reach the end, make sure to pull the zip tie up through the square jump ring. Remember that the zip tie ratchet heads, must all be on 1 side of the lid (the top side). Otherwise you lid won't work very well.
- I chose to weave all the top zip ties before connecting the base zip ties this time. Just so it would be easier to move things as I weaved each zip tie. So, insert the next a long zip tie down through the jump ring to the left of the newly weaved horizontal zip tie. Weave the opposite directions that you did for the last one. Under the first vertical zip tie, and over the next. Continue the up and down weaving through all the vertical zip ties all the way across the lid.
- When you reach the end, make sure to pull the new horizontal zip tie up through the square jump ring.
- Continue this process of weaving all the horizontal zip ties until you can no longer weave. There may be a few unused square jump rings, depending on space. I ran out of flexable movement after a few horizontal lines.
- For the bottom of my lid, I didn't weave the long zip tie, I just pulled it straight through the middle and attached the bottom zip tie to the top.
- Pull the long zip ties tight enough to keep your shape and secure your design.
You should now have something that resembles a weaved Shredder Mask with zip tie tails pointing our in all directions.
Step 8: Cut the Zip Tie Tails
The next step is to cut all the zip tie tails. I used small Wire Cutters. This worked well but hurts your hand a little as you have 50 or more tails to cut. I had to take a break at one point to rest my hands.
Cut the tails hanging out at close as you can to the ratchet head. You want to keep these cuts straight as you don't want sharp edges pointing out.
Step 9: Put the Handle Back on the Lid
Since we were able to save the original Plastic Handle with the screw and spacer from the old lid, This was easy to install. Just insert the screw through the bottom of the lid and screw the handle into place.
Voilà - your new lid is complete and ready for use!

If you were to line the interior of your lid with foil, that would probably keep more heat in and keep the plastic from leeching into the foods. You could probably even make it with food-grade jute twine or bamboo with the same steps you have listed here.
Really creative way of repairing stuff! Now I can add it to my arsenal of things to do if "x" happens. Thanks!
Great ideas! Bamboo would be very pretty
the plastic will leak trace amounts of toxic chemicals into the food you are preparing for your family you would certainly want to consult an msds sheet for details but there is a obvious reason the lids are made of glass or metal
Fahking - sorry about miss spelling your name earlier, that was not intentional. And thank you for the data sheet. After reading it i can say i was actually surprised, the sheet states these are "practically nontoxic" and the melting point is much higher on these than the ones i used.
That being noted, as i stated in my instructable "A word to the wise, the zip ties say they can handle a heat up to 185 degrees. Check the ones you are using before going to all this work, and keep this in mind when you are using it, no one wants melted zip ties in their food. I will probably use this crock pot to keep bread buns and things like that warm just to be safe."
Your point reiterates the importance of knowing as much as you can about your product before use. And is tottal great advise!
I agree a metal or glass lid would be ideal, and i dont think the zip tie lid would ever be a comercial item, but since i broke my lid, this was my best attempt to make a replacement.
Faking - thank you for the info. I will definalty look into this further.
I accidentally broke our crockpot lid a while ago and although I have since bought a new one, I have kept the old one at the back of the cupboard because it was a nice large one and it seemed like a waste to dispose of it (I had the same issue as you with not being able to get a replacement lid) and I thought that I might find a use for it one day.
The only problem is that I didn't think to keep the metal rim of the lid and I threw it out along with all of the bits of glass. Oh well, I will remember this the next time I break a lid.
I had the same issue with throwing away something just because the lid broke. ProfMuggs had a great idea, about getting a piece of sheetmetal and cutting it to size, you could even find a handle at home depot or lowes.
My husband and I are now also looking at 3D print options. I have a feeling I will soon have more lids than pots. :-)
very helpful, but won't the zip ties melt with heat
The zip ties I used say they can handle up to 185 degrees, and yes melting zip ties are a concern. That is why I will use this crock pot as a warming bed and not turn the heat up. I would recomended checking the heat tolerances before making your lid. I talked more about this in step 2.
I like the basket weave pattern a lot. It's too bad it won't keep the steam in the same way, but it will cut down the spatters. Nice job!
Thank you for the compliment. I do agree that it is not steam proof and thus doesnt keep the bread as warm as the original lid. But still looks better than the foil technique. Maybe there is a middle range. . .
My mom broke a glass lid on a little chafing dish, but unfortunately it didn't have a rim around the edge to secure to. Now that I think about it, you could get a piece of sheet aluminum and cut it to the rough shape without too much trouble.
ProfMuggs, That sounds amazing. If you do this please let me know how it turns out. I would love to see the results as I am sure it will happen to me someday.
Think I'll just buy a new pot!
Ray, true, but this was a much cheaper fix, $3. and better than throwing away a nice appliance.

Bible Review: NIV First Century Study Bible
Kent Dobson's NIV First Century Study Bible gives you all the cultural contexts and notes. Before now, the Chronological Bible (which requires a more steady reading plan) was the only Bible I could find with this kind of information. I only wish the NIV version used here had not been updated to include gender neutral terms. Unfortunately, Dobson's determination to give all sides of the story means a study Bible that lacks firm conviction on controversial issues. A passage in Romans about homosexuality, for example, is said to be possible referring to a specific cultural situation. The same goes for passages about women in the church. Therefore, I recommend that when using this study Bible, readers find other resources for tough topics and compare notes with other study Bibles and commentaries.
*Disclaimer: I received this book for free in exchange for my honest review.

Family Law
Our Promise:
Few areas of law are as emotionally taxing as family law and, in particular, divorce law. As a compassionate and experienced divorce lawyer, I will guide you through the process of obtaining a divorce and will assist you in setting realistic goals and expectations.
Examples of family law matters I handle include:
- Divorce (Also known as Dissolution Of Marriage)
- Separation
- Prenuptial Agreements
- Property Distribution
- Child Custody
- Visitation
- Child Support
- Complex Custody and Move-Away Cases
- Debt Division
- High Net-Worth Divorce
- Restraining Orders
- Spousal Support (Also known as Maintenance)
- Modification of Custody, Child Support, and Maintenance Orders
In Montana, a divorce is referred to as a "dissolution of marriage." Prior to entering a "Decree of Dissolution" (a court order that ends your marriage), a number of issues will have to be decided by the court. Those issues can include the following:
- How will your property and debts be divided?
- If there are children, how will residential time be divided between the parents?
- Who will remain in the family home?
- Will you get to keep your retirement account?
- Will your spouse be required to divide his or her retirement account with you?
- Will spousal maintenance (alimony) be required?
These issues can be decided by the court after a trial or the issues can be decided by parties through settlement agreements. It is possible to settle some issues and to go to trial on others. Every case is different, and you should select an attorney with the knowledge and experience to handle cases involving child support, spousal maintenance, contested child custody, business valuations in Flathead County and the surrounding areas.

Cover by Jim Lee.
Holy anniversary, Batman! Every knight needs to have a squire, and every Sherlock Holmes must have a Watson. So it has been with Batman and his partner in crime, Robin for seventy-five years. The Boy Wonder's spunk and color balance against the Caped Crusader's seriousness and gloom to create a perfect partnership, a Dynamic Duo.
Though Batman has always needed a Robin, it hasn't always been the same Robin. Many different crime fighters have taken up the name and costume, from jovial Dick Grayson to calculating Tim Drake to violent Damian Wayne. Each left his or her mark on the character, and today the Boy Wonder almost as recognizable and beloved as the Dark Knight himself.
Collecting stories from Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Carrie Kelley, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, Damian Wayne and more, ROBIN THE BOY WONDER: A CELEBRATION OF 75 YEARS compiles the best moments from seven decades of the Dynamic Duo. It includes Robin's first appearance by Bill Finger and Bob Kane, as well as tales from industry legends Jim Mooney, Sheldon Moldoff, Frank Miller, Chuck Dixon, Jeph Loeb, Marv Wolfman, Geoge Pérez, Jim Aparo, Grant Morrison, Andy Kubert and more.
Hardcover, 473 pages, full color. Cover price $39.99.

The flavor text about Steph in "Part V: Other Robins" reads: "Dick, Jason, Tim and Damian may have spent the most issues as Robins, but these four are not the only characters to take on the name and role as Batman's apprentice. In regular continuity and outside it, Batman has called upon a legion of diverse sidekicks... In addition to Helena, Batman has trained two other female Robins: Carrie Kelley and Stephanie Brown... Stephanie Brown was the only female to hold the role of Robin in regular continuity. Originally the vigilante Spoiler, she took over as Robin when Tim Drake briefly retired. Despite a fanatic fan following, Stephanie was fired after only a few months on the job. After a brief apparent death, Stephanie also had a two-year stint as Batgirl, before the New 52 relaunch and Batman Eternal returned her to her original identity as Spoiler."

This anniversary is noted by several media outlets today, although most focus on the iconic photos taken on location and its allegedly disastrous impact on Marilyn's marriage to Joe DiMaggio than its place in the movie. Most of the footage was unusable, due to the noise of the crowd who had gathered to watch. The scene would later be re-shot in Hollywood, and is surprisingly tame. Nonetheless, The Seven Year Itch became one of Marilyn's most popular films, and the original shoot remains one of the great publicity stunts of all time.

The KARE Foundation has helped our lives so much!! They helped us get an Emfit Monitor for our baby boy and now we have less worry when he is asleep. They are amazing and so very caring for others!
This is a great organization and have helped so many. They have helped to share my husbands story as an adult with epilepsy. They are always helping others and spreading awareness for epilepsy !!
My son, Chris, has epilepsy and this foundation was one of the first to reach out to him. They shared his story, so that others would learn what it was like for a child to live with epilepsy. They also gave him a community of support - they made sure he understood that he was never alone in this journey and fight against epilepsy. They have supplied him with the latest epilepsy equipment - which is a very cool looking watch to the unknowing eye. They support my son and that means a lot to me as a Mom. THANK GOD for this foundation!
I am very thankful to KAREFoundation for helping my daughter and I. I am a widowed mom of three daughters...two with various neurological difficulties. My youngest daughter was just diagnosed with complex partial epilepsy this past April. My daughters and I survive on the SS survivor benefits they receive from their father's death three years ago September 2. I have set up a very strict budget so as to assure that all bills are paid. With the bills and various medical appts one to two hours from home one or more times a month typically, we have very little funds to work with. For this reason, I have been unable to get a medical ID necklace for my daughter for her epilepsy and asthma. I posted a wish on Hero Network and KAREFoundation stepped up and donated the entire amount I needed to order it. I was able to order the necklace this morning and it should arrive in a couple of weeks. If not for KAREFoundation, I would not have been able to get it. I am very grateful for my help and offer my rave reviews in thanks. Thanks again KAREFoundation. You helped bring great relief into this worried mom's life :)
I am a teacher and knew Rose through MLM companies. I had a few students over the years with epilepsy and when I saw that she was starting her nonprofit my daughter and I stepped up to do the Philly Zoo walk. We raised over 1235 our first walk and my daughter was excited to help. We have donated our time, raised money and "gifted" some items to children with epilepsy. The organization has educated so many people-including me!-about the need for funding and research. I have learned more about the facts of epilepsy through this organization and share them with others. Their website and FB page have linked people with resources and made FRIENDS.
This organization was founded by Rose Stolarz since 2010 because of my grandson was born with epilepsy . We had a 5k walk & run @ the Philly Zoo had close to 1000 people for our first time, we also did a 5k walk & run @ mercer county park where we had a 100 people or so, it is a small organization but we are growing in leaps & bounds we just want to bring awardness to others who suffer from epilepsy!

Nothing can be more daunting than someone forces you to lose weight. This is something like if you feel to lose weight from inside then you can do it. But, if you're forced, you won't give your 100%. This is exactly what happened with the British actress. And, this is the reason for her being trending among the media and her fans.
She has faced an intense level of scrutiny – and not just from her fans but while filming too.
The English actress has started her career from HBO fantasy television.
Yes, you've guessed it RIGHT!
We're talking about Sophie Turner only.
Sophie Belinda Jonas (born 21 February 1996), who known professionally as Sophie Turner is an English actress. Turner has made her professional acting debut as Sansa Stark on the HBO fantasy television series Game of Thrones (2011-2019). Game of Thrones is what got Sophie international recognition.
Turner has acted in the television film The Thirteenth Tale (2013) she made her feature film debut in 2013 (Another Me) only. Turner is a daughter of Sally, a nursery school teacher, and Andrew, a pallet distribution company worker. She has been a member of Theatre Company (Playbox Theatre Company) since she was 3.
View this post on Instagram
A post shared by Sophie Turner (@sophiet) on
Her first filming (Game of Thrones) began in 2010 when she's 14. Sansa is Sophie's first television role. In 2012, Turner was nominated as Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a TV Series – Supporting Young Actress. She was nominated for her performance as Sansa.
Sophie Turner has essentially grown up on-screen for better. Turner is now the most recognizable faces on TV –and for worse.
You've got to know everything about her but what is the reason for Sophie Turner Weight Loss?
Read on to know….
Turner suddenly started to get spotty and gain weight. This is exactly why people were telling her to lose weight. On screen 'Game of Thrones' star Sophie Turner (aka, Sansa) has been through a lot over the years. And, as it turns out, Turner went through some not-so-great moments on setting herself.
Though, Sophie's killing it as Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones, she didn't always feel like the lady of Winterfell. In a recent interview with Marie Claire Australia, Turner disclosed that she's struggling with mental health while filming Game of Thrones. This was just because she had pressure to lose weight.
"I have experienced mental illness firsthand and I've seen what it can do to the people around (the sufferers) as well," she said. My metabolism suddenly decided to fall to the depths of the ocean and I started to get spotty and gain weight, and all of this was happening to me on camera.
"Then came pressure from film and television studios to lose weight," the magazine noted. Turner turned to a professional for help dealing with the pressure – specifically a therapist.
"Everyone needs a therapist, especially when people are repetitively telling you you're not good enough and you don't look good enough, "Sophie said. " I think it's necessary to have someone to talk to, and to help you through that."
Interview with Marie Claire is not the first time when Sophie has candid about her mental health. In a recent interview with Dr. Phil for his podcast, Phil in the Blanks, about the impact of negative comments about her weight and appearance.
"People used to say, 'Damn, Sansa gained 10lbs' or 'Damn, Sansa needs to lose 10lbs' or Sansa got fat. It was just a lot of weight comments, or I would have spotty skin because I was a teenager – and that's normal. And, I used to get a lot of comments about my skin and my weight and how I wasn't a good actress," she said.
Turner added that while filming, she would request that they "tighten my corset a lot" as she became "very, very self-conscious," and said that the dive in her confidence affected her work.
"It would just affect me creatively, and I couldn't be true to the character because I was so worried about Sophie," Turner added.
The "Dark Phoneix" star said "I had no motivation to do anything or go out, "she said of the impact of the condition. "Even with my best friends, I wouldn't want to see them… I would cry and cry and cry. Just having to change and put on clothes, I said, I can't do this. I can't go outside. I have nothing that I want to do."
Thankfully she's now in a better position, all thanks in her part to a relationship with her now husband Joe Jones.

"I feel much better. I've been doing therapy at CAST centers, actually. I'm on medication," she said. "I love myself now, or more than I used to, I think. I don't think I loved myself at all. But I'm now with someone that makes me realize that is do have something redeeming qualities, I suppose. When someone tells you they love you every day, it makes you really think about why that is and I think it makes you love yourself a bit more. So yeah, I love myself."

Seems to me I read somewhere there is a fixed (?) amount of time a hole can be expected to produce - was it 20, or 30 days (?) from when tapped?
I seem to recall this as the amount of time before all the cells are 'healed' (closed off) - ????
Does anyone out there have information on this?
- Do the freezing temps extend this time? If so, is it that all the time below freezing does not 'count'?
- Do the 'check valve' taps extend this time? If so, how much?
- Do the vacuum systems extend this time?
With what looks like to be a drawn out season here in Aitkin County (just got 12" of snow and high temps in the low 30's forecast for the next week) ---- just wondering about the merits, if any, of delaying tapping.

Exercising in winter can be a challenge. Colder temperatures, winter darkness and other extremes can all make winter a difficult time to get physical activity. If you're a physically active person who likes to be outside in winter, these 4 tips can help you exercise safely outdoors.
1. Wear Bright Colors
Winter is a time of darkness. It's dark until late every morning, and it gets dark early at nightfall. Wearing bright colors at dusk and in the early morning is important when you're exercising on the sidewalks and near streets. Bright colors, like neon yellow, will help you stay visible, so drivers are more likely to spot you as they're driving past.
Know when to wear reflective clothing. If you're out in dusky conditions, bright clothes are enough. If you're in total darkness, wear reflective clothing.
2. Warm Up Before Heading Out
Warming up before you head out on a cold day will help get your blood pumping. Do stretches indoors in your living room or basement. If you don't know any warm-up exercises, do some jumping jacks, then run in place indoors.
3. Use Lotion
Winter air can be very drying, especially if you're out running. Use lotion generously on the parts of your body that are exposed to colder winter air. Check your skin regularly for dryness. If you often suffer from dry skin, carry lotion around in a purse or a handbag, so you can use it when it's needed.
4. Dress in Layers
Dressing in layers is important because you'll get warmer as you become more physically active. Wear layers that are lightweight and are designed to wick sweat away from the body. You can buy specialized exercise clothes for this purpose at the local gym or local sporting goods store.
Have a plan to wrap your extra layers around your waist or carry them in a backpack as you shed clothes throughout the workout.

Rozmarzony, popowy breakbeat i tech house od producenta znanego z labelu londyńskiego sklepu Phonica. Wokale, sample, trochę smyczków, atmosfera jest raczej niewinna.
After his last release on Dirt Crew in 2017 we are more than delighted to bring back the talented Harry Wolfman.
With impressive records on labels like Phonica, Omena, Outplay and Toy Tonics in the last years he has drawn up a fine new selection of music that spans across many genres and moods. This is also the first release for us in the new year after a lil break and it continues to explore the more eclectic approach we are following for a while now since the outings of artists like Dampé, S3A and Dan Only.
Harry presents an exciting opener for his new EP, together with vocalist Christian Crow he has made the blissful and breaks laden "poppy" good feel tune "A Way You Come Home to Me" that shines a bright light in these darker months. Followed by the deeper club tune "Step by Step", building around yet another vocal recording. This time it's Harry sampling his own voice and looping it into a repetitive piece of good feel House music.
We are getting deeper on the B side with "Speaking Raman", one of these signature Harry tunes, a playful dusty lo-fi piece of music build around a piano theme and embedded in deep bass and driving beats, his sound trademark on all of these more floor orientated tracks on the EP. To close out the record we added two of his cinematic, ambient electronica works that we personally love so much. The haunting "Always 3" is a deep sphere that sucks you in a meditational and soothing womb of sounds. Ending with the electroid cut "Green Trees", it's broken and fragile and gives this indie-tronica track a warm and gentle touch.
We hope you enjoy these tunes and that they may be your soundtrack to the upcoming warmer months.

Find huge discounts on the complete new 2021 Audi RS6 Avant range direct from UK main dealers
We hope to have discounts in place on this model shortly, please check back with us in a few weeks.
The RS6 is one of the most powerful and most expensive estate (or Avant in Audi corporate speak) cars you can buy, with list prices starting at over £80,000. Under the bonnet there's a 4.0 litre turbo pertrol V8 engine that generates a huge 560 horsepower, though if even that's not enough then you can opt for the RS6 performance version that gives you 605 bhp instead for an extra £7,000... and Performance is the right word - it's staggering, with the brand's Quattro permanent 4 wheel drive system to transfer all of that power onto the tarmac, and propel what is a two tonne car fron 0-60 in a supercar beating 3.6 seconds. What is remarkable about the RS6 is not the power though, it's the efforless way it puts it down, and also how much of a useable everyday car it is - despite the sports suspension it rides comfortably and quietly when you want it, hardly any different from the rest of the A6 executive range, but when you need to go chasing Ferraris everything the engine can give you is at your right foot instantly and you are catapulted towards the horizon - it's an intoxicating experience that makes it hard to go back to lesser cars. The full range of new Audi RS6 deals are shown above, just click on the model you are interested in to see Orangewheels best deals and special offers from our franchised UK main dealerships, to get a low cost PCP finance quote or part exchange valuation against a brand new 2021 RS6 for sale.

An Armed Services Readiness Subcommittee hearing Thursday went from being a Aaron Sorkin teleplay, written by a high school sophomore honors English teacher, to an explosive drama in which the Air Force brass was taken to task for its proposal to mothball the A-10.
Unexpectedly, Senator John McCain was the protagonist in Thursday's fight to save the A-10. Senator Kelly Ayotte, who has been a fearless defender of the plane, opened the melodrama with the same steady delivery of the facts about the slow and low flying aircraft that has saved the lives of so many troops on the ground.
Ayotte led Thursday's hearing with Senator Shaheen, the subcommittee chairman. Deborah Lee James Secretary of the Air Force, and Chief of Staff of the Air Force General Mark A. Welsh III, testified as to the posture of the Department of the Air Force in review of the Defense Authorization Request for Fiscal Year 2015 and the future of defense programs.
The duo attempted to sell the senators on the idea that in order to adequately fight "a full spectrum fight" the Air Force not only had "a lot of other airplanes that do close air support that can do those other important things" but the costly and repeatedly delayed F-35 is an adequate replacement.
McCain left the chamber during the testimony of Welsh, and returned after the questioning by his fellow Committee members. McCain appeared to be very angry.
In front of the room of A-10 pilots and current and retired Air Force members, McCain whose silence on the matter had been deafening spoke loud and clear, "We are going to do away with the finest close air support weapon in history?" he said at the news conference. "And we are then going to have some kind of nebulous idea of a replacement with an airplane that costs at least 10 times as much — and the cost is still growing — with the F-35? That's ridiculous. That's absolutely ridiculous," snapped McCain.
After the hearing, Arizona Congressman Ron Barber joined Senator Ayotte, his republican challenger Chuck Wooten, a USAF Command Chief Master Sergeant (Retired), USAF, House members representing other A-10 bases, and the A-10 pilots for a press conference.
Noticeably absent was the remainder of Arizona's Congressional caucus. Barber has been unable to lead his fellow Arizona House members in the fight for the A-10.
Still, Barber has been a staunch advocate for the Warthog and Davis Monthan Air Force base which is located in his Tucson district.
On Thursday, Barber called the president's proposal to retire the plane an "irresponsible" threat to the safety of American ground troops.
"The retirement of the A-10 would be an irresponsible move by the president because it would endanger the vital mission of close air support." Barber, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, said " I look forward to continuing to work with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to fight the administration and keep the A-10 flying."
Wooten said, "It was a privilege to attend the Air Force's posturing hearing with the esteemed members of the Senate Armed Services Committee. I attended so I could get first-hand, factual information on this critical issue to our community. Now that I have heard from both sides, I am well-qualified to lead and energize Tucson to lend a collective voice to our legislative proponents and stop the divestiture of the Warthog."
Lt. Col. William E. "Smitty" Smith Jr., USAF/ANG (Ret.), who had more than 3,000 hours as an A-10 pilot including 128 combat sorties, Chief MSgt. Russell B. Carpenter, USAF (Ret.), who served 30 years in the Air Force and controlled 67 combat air strikes, also spoke in praise of the A-10 .
Also on Thursday, Barber hosted a briefing on close air support detailing the A-10's superior capabilities for his colleagues on the House Armed Services Committee.
Before the press conference Barber questioned Gen. Larry O. Spencer, vice chief of staff of the Air Force, about the proposal to retire the A-10. Barber's aggressive defense of the plane came during a hearing of the Readiness Subcommittee of the Armed Service Committee.
Barber focused on last year's National Defense Authorization Act, in which Barber worked with Hartzler as well as other Republicans and Democrats, to prohibit the Air Force from taking any steps to retire the A-10 during 2014.
"It has since been reported that the Air Force may have not allotted any flight hours for the A-10 weapons school, canceled A-10 modernization and ended the normal sustainment process for FY2015, which begins October 1," Barber told Spencer. "This would clearly demonstrate complete disregard for the congressional intent of the law."

fingernails and marriage
When I lived in Israel in the 1970s, there was a central laundry. We'd drop off our laundry once a week. There was one woman who worked there. I must have not prepared my laundry properly and she took me aside and chastised me. She said that unless I learned how to do laundry, I would not be a good candidate for marriage. I had since heard the same thing from some Jamaicans.
Why? Long fingernails! Men would actually examine you and judge your character based on the length of your nails. How could you wring out the laundry with long nails?
There weren't laundromats in Israel at that time. And I don't remember individuals having laundry machines. So, you had to wash by hand. The climate was good and within a few hours, everything was dry.
I was thinking about this yesterday as I washed some clothes 'by hand.' Luckily, I'd learned a thing or two from the Chinese. Soak the clothes overnight in the tub, if you had one, or in a bucket. The next day, pour out the water, add fresh water, then stomp on the clothes, then wring them clean. My clothes came out cleaner than in the washing machine.
I didn't wash my fingers to the bone! I remember when we didn't have a washing machine at home. We had a washboard. Using that washboard did make your fingers raw. I don't understand how mother did it. What did mother have against Chinese laundry? Curious how we limit our imagination by our unexamined habits.
I did break one of my nails yesterday. But, my clothes are clean!

New product
Fights muscle breakdown and boosts recovery
Warning: Last items in stock!
Availability date:
The minimum purchase order quantity for the product is 1
Fitness Authority Xtreme 3R has been engineered to equip the athlete/bodybuilder with a recovery system predicated on the notion that recovery can be supported by mitigating the degree of trauma muscle experience during training. In other words, it's been suggested that damage to muscle can be modulated through the use of glutamine and BCAA. As a result, recovery time is optimal, but timing of consumption and ratios among constituents are critical.
Intense weight training results in an enormous metabolic demand for protein – as much as 300% higher than basal requirements where it concerns structural protein mechanics. Banging iron in the gym as well as other forms of intense training is a catabolic event. Intense training causes a negative nitrogen balance increasing cortisol, adrenaline and glucagon. This is normal and necessary, but these hormones are indeed catabolic and drive nitrogen to a negative state. The ingestion of branched-chain amino acids and glutamine during this high stress environment has been suggested to promote the maintenance of lean muscle.
By directly supplementing glutamine and branched-chain amino acids during intense exercise, both the signal and the amount of skeletal muscle breakdown are optimized, minimizing the amount of micro-trauma experienced. The latter is supported particularly when sipping Xtreme 3R in between sets throughout the first half of the workout. Glutamine consumed when training will elevate glutamine plasma concentrations, which has been suggested to prevent the premature release of glutamine from skeletal muscle back into circulation.
Fitness Authority formulators firmly hold that heavy supplementation with both glutamine and BCAA during periods of intense training and muscle stress will promote an optimal nitrogen balance and support recovery during/after training. Xtreme 3R may be the only sports supplement to promote all three stages of energy metabolism; ATP / CP Pathway, Glycolytic Pathway and Oxidative Pathway. It is no wonder that Xtreme 3 R® supports an individual's training capacity far into the oxidative pathway. Fitness Authority recommends that all hard-training athletes ingest an approximate dosage of 0.2 grams per pound of body weight. That means that if your current body weight is 200 lbs, use 40 grams. One intake strategy is to take all of it during training, sipping it in between sets. Another would be to take half prior to training and the other half immediately after. Xtreme 3R should be consumed every day!
Contest training bodybuilders and anyone on a diet should use 2 doses a day starting 8 to 12 weeks prior to the event to minimize muscle losses associated with calorie reduction. BCAA promotes muscle retention during periods of restricted low caloric intake. WARNINGS: Keep out of reach of children. Before beginning any program, consult your health care practitioner.

How To Treat Norovirus
The norovirus, or what is commonly known as the stomach bug,is probably the most infuriating illness to treat. Why? Because unlike bacterial infections, norovirus cannot be treated by antibiotics. So, if there's no meds to be taken, how do you treat norovirus? I know it's not exactly what you want to hear right now, but the only way it can be thoroughly treated is by drinking lots and lots of fluids.
Let's back up: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the norovirus is caught through contaminated food or water, or by touching contaminated surfaces. The virus causes stomach and intestine inflammation, and leads to nausea, stomach pain, vomiting, and diarrhea. Ugh. Sounds completely awful. And here's another fact — norovirus is also commonly known as the "winter stomach bug," so beware people.
The difference between the norovirus and influenza is that vaccines and anti-viral drugs can help to fight off influenza (which is known as the flu — symptoms including fever, sore throat, runny nose, headaches, coughing and fatigue), but not norovirus — unfortunately, that virus can only be lived out through lots of liquids. Since norovirus causes you to throw up, the losing all those fluids will leave you dehydrated, which is why it is so crucial to keep hydrated.
Now here's the unlucky news. Just like influenza, a person can catch norovirus more than once in their life. The CDC says that "being infected by one type of norovirus may not protect you against other types." Norovirus is commonly caught by eating food or drinking liquids that are contaminated, touching surfaces or objects that are contaminated, and having contact with someone who is infected. A person will be contagious of norovirus while they are sick, and even a few days after you recover from the illness.
However, here's the lucky news: There are a few lifestyle changes you can make to ensure that you are staying safely away from norovirus this winter. The first is the most common — wash your hands, especially after using the bathroom. Always wash your hands while preparing, eating, or handling any type of foods that you consume. Sure you can carry a hand sanitizer on you, but it isn't a full proof substitute from thoroughly washing your hands. Make sure to always disinfect and clean surfaces (with bleach, if possible), and make sure that anyone who was sick with norovirus keeps a distance from others (even if they want to take care of people right after being sick). Give them at least a week.
OK, so maybe a lot of this sounds dramatic, and we are going to turn into some crazy germphobes over the next few months. But after looking at the horrific side effects that come with this nasty viral disease, I have a feeling it will be well worth it.

All three of us have our birthday this month, For Brandon's birthday he wanted snow crab and a big cookie. We gave Annie hers before she left, and I needed a pump for my pond so that is what I got.
We have also made two recycling bins for the garbage men to pickup. The city wanted us to rent the recycling bins from them can you believe that! Now that is going to get people to start recycle charge them an extra fee for it. We made our own, just our way of sticking it to the man, Ha.
Annie go's for her visa in just 5 days we are all looking forward to her return so she can start Collage. I miss her so much, but I hope she is making the most of the short time she has with her parents and grand parents in China. We hope to be able to visit Annie's parents and grand parent's when we go to china next year. When I last talked to her she was studying hard for the SAT's so she can apply to a different collage more geared towards Med schooling after her first semester or year.
Good luck Annie we love you, miss you, and will see you soon.

Streaming video games have become incredibly popular over the last few years thanks to platforms like Twitch and Youtube. In fact, it has been reported that Twitch gets as many viewers as TV stations like ESPN, CNN and MSNBC. This number is only going to grow in the coming years as more and more people begin to watch streams on the platform.
This popularity has not only increased the number of people viewing streams, but also the number of people streaming video games for others. There are now over 175,000 people making money from streaming on Twitch alone, and many people can make a ton of money if they grow their audience enough.
As a result, many people are getting into streaming and starting their own in hopes of either making money, growing a brand or simply just having fun. However, getting started with streaming doesn't just happen overnight and there are a few different things that you will need to consider.
When you are looking to start streaming, the first thing to think about is getting a good computer, with a good graphics card to be able to handle the games. In addition to that, you will need things like streaming software, headset, microphone and more.
However, one important aspect of streaming video games or any other sort of content that often goes unnoticed, is having a quality webcam. While you can stream without a facecam, almost every popular streamer has one and you should to.
If you want a little more information on some of the actual options you are considering, as well as some reviews, GameAuthority's guide is worth checking out. It is a great place to start if you are looking to get a webcam for streaming, but are not sure which option out there will work best for you.
This article is going to look at some of the reasons why you should have a facecam for streaming, and what to look for when trying to find the right webcam to use.
What to Look for in a Webcam for Streaming?
Of course, in order to add a facecam to your stream, you need a camera. When most streamers are looking for a camera to use, they go for a webcam. They are widely available and very affordable. But with so many options out there, what should you look for in a webcam for streaming. Well, there are a few things to look for, and they include:
- A camera that is affordable. You likely don't want to spend hundreds and hundreds on a webcam when you are just starting out, so look for deals if possible.
- You want to find a webcam with a high resolution to be able to capture you are clearly as possible. In addition to that, you should look for a camera with other features such as focus, digital zoom, light correction, high frame rate and more.
- You want to make sure that it is compatible with the computer and operating system that you will use for streaming.
Also, if using a webcam isn't your thing, there are other options too. For example, you could use a camera on a tripod or mounted on your desk. However, a webcam will be more inexpensive, while still offering you high quality, so it is a great place to start if you don't have a ton of capital when you start up your stream.
Why Is It So Important to Have a Solid Webcam?
So now that you know some of the things to look for in a webcam for streaming, why is it so important to have one? Well, first of all, it simply enhances the quality and professionalism of your stream. A high quality facecam, along with other information and overlays can show people that you take pride in your stream and are putting in a lot of hard work to make it as successful and high-quality as possible.
It also makes your stream unique to you, and won't allow anyone to steal and/or rebroadcast anything you put out, as your face will be on it. Stealing content is unfortunately quite common in gaming, and having your face attached to it can help ensure no one tries to pass off your gameplay or commentary as their own.
Next, and perhaps most importantly, it allows your viewers and fans to connect with you on a deeper level than if you were just playing a game. Not only will they be able to see your face and put a face behind the commentary or gameplay, but they will also be able to see your reactions, what you're wearing and so much more.
Body language is an absolutely massive part of communication, and without a facecam, you are simply missing out on that aspect of communicating with your viewers. Think of it like talking to your friends and family with your eyes closed. Sure, the words are there and you can sort of make sense what's up, but visuals are a huge part of communication, so don't underestimate the power of having a facecam while streaming.
All of this helps you appear more personable and helps people relate/connect to you more than other streamers who just have their own gameplay on screen, with no facecam. Of course, if you are a little bit camera-shy, that is totally fair and no one will ever force you to use a facecam. However, the more you do it, the more comfortable you will get in front of the camera. And remember, this isn't a beauty pageant, so even if you aren't a model, viewers will generally appreciate a facecam.
Hopefully, this article (and the guide we linked to) can help you figure out what is the best webcam for streaming and what you should be looking for. While your webcam isn't the only thing to focus on if you want to start streaming, it is one of the most important. Without a solid webcam, becoming a popular streamer will be a tall task.
