Home & Garden - 28 June 2006

The only reason I ask, is because I opened up a Yahoo! store with things I like, such as reproduction art of spiritual and religious icons, amongst other things. But I had never thought of decorating my home with it as well. Thank you.

I decided to plant a Blackberry bush in my yard this year and was wondering if anyone had any good tips to help it grow to bear as much fruit as possible.

We had a structural engineer look at a large crack in the basement floor near a center bearing wall. The crack is approx. 6" to the west of the center bearing wall and has opened approx 3/32" - 1/8". The engineer said that the crack was caused by the bearing wall not being centered on the footing and lack of adequate control joints. This would cause the load from above to crack the concrete floor because of inadequate support directly under the bearing wall. Engineer believe that construction loads and general furniture load should not cause it to crack anymore. Should we continue with the purchase? What should we ask the builder to do about it? Please help. We like the house but don't want to get stuck with something that may need repairs.

I'm about to buy my first home (condo) and do not plan on living there more than 7 years. I decided to buy because I'm sick and tired of throwing money away renting.

I have narrowed my loan choices down to either a 30 year fixed and a 7 year interest only. The 7 year interest only mortgage is $120 less per month than the 30 year fixed, which is a lot of money for me.

I am also aware that I'd be able to write off a greater amount in taxes by going with the interest only mortgage, yet most people are still advising me to go with the 30 year fixed instead.

Please help.

Thanks

I have tried to dig them up, but the roots go too far and any little splinter of root creates new chutes.

The 20+ year old foundation has a poured-concrete bottom and "concrete block & motar" walls. There is a seepage problem (through the "concrete block & motar" walls only) when the ground is soaked in heavy rain.

Will the foundation (concrete or motar) crumble if it is periodically attacked by standing rain water? if so, other than regrading the surrounding to get better water-drainage, do you have any suggestion for rehabilitating or reinforcing the damaged "concrete block & motar" walls?

Thanks!

I've tried shocking and yellow out. It seems to be imbedded on
the sides...brushing won't budge it.
