I have tried gathering up all his droppings & putting them in one corner of the yard & hosing off the rest of the lawn, but that didn't change anything at all. He continues to leave piles all over the back lawn. He is a fairly large dog (pointer) & is very smart, but also very stubborn. I also tried catching him "in the act" & taking him to where I want him to go, but then he won't go at all until I leave.

Two years ago I installed a new concrete driveway. Living in a freeze/thaw area of the country, I used gravel for drainage and installed 4 inch fiber reinforced concrete. Now I am seeing hairline cracks across the width of the driveway. At first I thought it was curing cracks. However, since the cracks are becoming wider, I attribute this to settlement. Any suggestions on how to fix, repair, or mitigate the cracking before it becomes worse and unsightly?

The tassels are similar to what you would find around curtains, etc. I do not know how to attach them, however. Please give me any advice you have. Thanks!

Looking for information about evaporative coolers. Fans that use the evaporating water to cool a room. Has anyone used one before? How well did it work? I've also heard of some that use ice as the cooling medium, does anyone know of one?
