A Message From The Owner: Brian Oertel

Look What Happens When You Paint Your Stucco!

Is painting your stucco with elastomeric smarter? So, the companies that are promoting painting your stucco with elastomeric paint claim painting is Smarter not Harder! Lets do the math. These companies say their painting method elongates your repairs, is water proof and permeable (breathes). Elongating repairs is not fixing the underlying problems - its only a temporary band-aid. The elastomeric paint is water resistant and breathable, therefore it is NOT water proof. Remember your base (gray looking) coat is the moisture barrier in a stucco system. Your existing cement color coat is designed to absorb moisture completely through each layer of color to the base coat. When they get wet, the cement color coats need to breathe quickly. Putting a coat of elastomeric paint over them will trap moisture between the elastomeric and the base coat. In time this will break down your existing cement color coat, deteriorate your base coat and rust out the lathing wire which supports your base coat, therefore severely compromising your existing stucco system, then having to relath with a new base over your existing stucco system. So lets add it up. Save a couple of thousand dollars up front. Elongate, not fix and repair existing problems. Paint your stucco with elastomeric. Trap moisture and severely compromise your stucco system and pay tens of thousands of dollars more later. Does that sound smarter to you? Call me for a comprehensive estimate. My focus is to preserve your existing stucco system.

Would You Believe


It was, unsurprisingly, comedian and writer W.C. Fields who said, I am free of all prejudices. I hate everyone equally. The giant squid has the distinction of possessing the largest eyes of any animal theyre as big as pie plates. Evidencing a drastic change in the nature of the United States since its agrarian beginnings, today only a quarter of Americans live in rural areas. If you're like the average American, you'll eat nine pounds of peanuts this year. Those who study such things say you're more likely to be bitten by a mosquito if you've just eaten a banana. It was our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, who made the following sage observation: No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens. If you are a stay-at-home mom, you probably won't be surprised by a recent study that found lower levels of stress in mothers who work outside the home than in those who stay with their kids all day. Are you lissotrichous? If you dont have curls in your hair, you are. Of course, you may not be able to tell if you are atrichous (bald), a condition that may be caused by trichotillomania, the compulsion to pull out your own hair. It was British mathematician, philosopher and social critic Bertrand Russell who made the following sage observation: Every advance in civilization has been denounced as unnatural while it was recent.

Moments In Time
The History Channel On June 3, 1956, Santa Cruz, Calif., authorities announced a total ban on rock and roll music at public gatherings. Just two weeks later, Time magazine reported on similar bans enacted in Asbury Park, N.J., and San Antonio. On June 4, 1942, the Battle of Midway one of the most decisive U.S. victories against Japan during World War II begins. During the four-day seaand-air battle, the U.S. Pacific Fleet succeeded in destroying four Japanese aircraft carriers while losing only one of its own. On June 5, 1933, the United States goes off the gold standard, a monetary system in which currency is backed by gold. The Great Depression of the 1930s had frightened the public into hoarding gold. President Franklin Roosevelt ordered all gold coins and gold certificates in denominations of more than $100 turned in for other money. On June 6, 1981, more than 500 passengers are killed when their train plunges into the Baghmati River in India. The rail accident was caused by an engineer who braked too hard to keep from hitting a cow. On June 8, 632, in Saudi Arabia, Muhammad, founder of Islam, dies in the arms of Aishah, his third wife. In 610, in a cave north of Mecca, Muhammad had a vision in which he heard God command him to become the Arab prophet of the true religion. He began having revelations, which he collected as the Qur'an. On June 9, 1956, one of the worlds top-selling crime novelists, Patricia Cornwell, best known for her forensic pathologist character Dr. Kay Scarpetta, is born in Miami. Cornwells first novel was released in 1990.

NEED TO CROSS OFF A TO-DO OR TWO?

Family Fun
By Donna Erickson Join your kids outside this season and take a closer look at the flowers in your yard, neighborhood park or in the vase on your kitchen table. Discover the interesting shapes of the petals that compose a bloom. Then let your observations inspire you to make a bouquet of everlasting flowers from the most unusual of materials. Here are the materials for a flower with four or five petals: 2 sheer knee-high stockings in white or pastel colors A roll of 16- or 18-gauge wire Scissors Floral tape or green electrical tape Vase or flowerpot with florist foam inside Floral moss (optional) 1. Shape and twist the wire in a loop to form an outline of a petal that is about 1 inch in diameter. Think of it as the frame of the petal. Do not cut the wire at the base of the loop, but rather twist and turn the wire to form another similar-size petal next to the first until you have four or five petals. Do not cut off the wire. 2. Cut off the toe and the elastic end of a pair of sheer knee-highs. Stretch the stocking over a wire petal, then twist it in place at the base, stretch it a bit

more, and then twist again. Wrap the wire around the base to fasten the stocking in place. Cut off excess stocking below the petal. Continue with each petal. This can be a two-person project. Your child can stretch the stocking over the petal while you do the twisting. 3. Cut the wire, allowing for a stem. Give the stem a nice finished look with floral or green electrical tape. Arrange in a flowerpot with floral moss or in a vase. Tips: Glue miniature butterflies or bugs to the flowers, or add details with fabric paints in squeeze bottles.

With limited natural resources and an increasing population base, regard for the local environment is not just a fad, its a necessity. At least, thats true for Albuquerque ThoroClean. While lots of carpet cleaners advertise green cleaning, ThoroClean is prepared to stand behind their green cleaning methods. According to owner Thomas Conway, ThoroClean uses non-residue emulsifiers instead of detergents a difference setting them apart from most of the competition. These emulsifiers mean less water is required for cleaning, since much of the water used in carpet

Up-front pricing and an unconditional cleaning guarantee. Thats the way it works with ThoroClean. Owners Leslie and Thomas Conway (inset top) stand behind the companys green cleaning which requires less water and uses no harmful chemicals to pollute our water source (inset bottom).

Dont Just Sit There


By Matilda Charles Numerous studies have shown us two things: Its never too late to start being active, and a small amount of activity is better than none. Now theres an additional benefit: Being active helps keep depression and other psychological issues at bay. Not only that, but a recent study shows that those with psychological distress are four times more likely to be functionally limited. The study, done on 91,000 adults age 65 and older, indicates that onethird of us dont get regular exercise, and the number goes up even more for those over 75. Another study on the same topic came to a serious conclusion: Those who have depression had better results from exercising three times a week than those who took drugs. All it took was getting 20 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise. Other researchers have approached senior health from a different angle: A Psychological Bulletin news release from the Harvard School of Public Health reported on a study that compared psychological wellbeing to heart health. It found that psychological well-being reduces the chance of heart attack and stroke. Specifically, being optimistic, happy and satisfied with life can reduce the risk of a cardiovascular event. Somehow those emotions not only protect us, but can slow down existing disease. How then do we use this information? A simplistic look might be this: If we elevate our mood with exercise and gain a sense of emotional well-being, were also helping our heart. And looking on the bright side of life gives an additional benefit: Those of us who are optimistic cut our risk of heart attack in half.

Antique Answers
By Larry Cox Q: I have a Springfield Model 1863 rifle that was used during the Civil War. Can you tell me more about it? Steve, Rio Rancho, N.M. A: It was a percussion rifle musket made by the National Armory in Springfield, Ill. By 1863, Springfield was the only government arsenal under Union control, since Harpers Ferry had been destroyed by a Confederate raid in 1861. According to Warmans Civil War Weapons by Graham Smith, the Model 1861 was such a success that both Springfield and private contractors rushed to produce as many rifles as they could. Since the Union couldnt interrupt production to introduce a new design, they slightly modified it, and it was sold as a Springfield Model 1863. To determine its value, you should consult a competent arms dealer. Q: I have one of the first Barbie dolls issued. I would like to sell it. Carol, Albuquerque, N.M. A: As with most collectibles, issue date and condition are absolutely vital in determining the value of Barbie dolls. For example, mint condition means the doll has never been out of the

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be wary of a deal that could result in compromising your independence. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) New facts emerge that help put an irksome workplace situation in perspective. Pay more attention to a family member who needs your wisdom and strength. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A slight setback is nothing to worry about. Use this delay to deal with a number of matters you might have ignored. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Youre entering a period of stability. Use it to straighten out any outstanding problems. LEO (July 23 to August 22) You might well benefit from staying out of the spotlight for a while. You need time to reflect on some upcoming decisions. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A difficult family situation improves. You can now start to focus more of your attention on a possible career change. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) An on-the-job change works to your benefit. Meanwhile, a stalled romantic situation starts up again.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) An unusual period of indecisiveness is a mite frustrating. But things soon clear up. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Its not a good idea at this time to try to force your opinions on others. Inspire change by example, not by intimidation. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Some setbacks could affect your plans to fortify your financial situation. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Show that often-hidden steely spine of yours as you once again stand up to an emotional bully.

Tips for a Healthy Heart


High cholesterol is one of the major controllable risk factors for coronary heart disease, heart attack and stroke, according to the American Heart Association. This makes getting enough fiber in your diet an imperative and smart step towards better heart health. Everyone can take small steps to improve their health. Pencil in exercise Theres always a reason not to exercise, whether its a crazy work day, family obligations or a never-ending to-do list. Find time to pay your body back for all that it does in your busy day; exercise in the morning before the kids are awake, during your lunch hour, or as a night cap before bedtime. Its great for keeping the heart healthy. The heart is more than a muscle to be truly healthy, you need to be happy its physical and mental. Make time for your passions in life and do what makes you happy. Get a fiber boost Getting the right amount of fiber in your diet is so important for your heart health and its easy too. Make sure to get 25 to 38 grams of fiber every day as recommended by the American Dietetic Association, but remember that not all fibers are created equal. Diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that include 7 grams of soluble fiber per day from psyllium husk may reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol.

Touring New Mexico


By Jon Knudsen Who knew that Enchantment could be spelled with one A, two Is, and two Us. Yet Abiquiu sits in some of the most enchanted scenery in the state. The red and yellow bluffs to the north shine in the afternoon sun. The purple mesa top of the Pedernal looms in the distance to the south. The Rio Chama glistens as it winds its way down the valley. Just look at the paintings of Georgia OKeeffe (one O, two Fs, three Es), who first visited in 1929 and made New Mexico her permanent home from 1949 until her death in 1986. These shapes, colors and textures are the basis for many of her paintings. OKeeffe started out living at Ghost Ranch, about 10 miles north of the village of Abiquiu on Highway 86. She eventually bought a house at Ghost Ranch in 1940. Then in 1945, she bought a large adobe compound in Abiquiu. Dating back to the Spanish colonial era, the house

and grounds required a lengthy restoration. She lived and worked there for almost 40 years. In 1984, two years before her death, and with failing eyesight, she moved to Santa Fe. Her Abiquiu house, which stands right behind the gorgeous church of Santo Tomas el Apostol, is available for guided home and studio tours. For more information, you may visit www.okeeffemuseum.org. But one doesnt have to know a lot about OKeeffe and her work to appreciate the country that inspired her. There is a stunning highway view of those shining red and

yellow rocks a few miles north of Ghost Ranch. A little further on is Echo Amphitheater. Besides offering great viewing and hiking possibilities, Echo Amphitheater also has a small campground tucked among the junipers and pions. There are three reservoirs that are close by on Highway 84 Abiquiu, Heron and El Vado Lakes. They all have campgrounds with showers, boat ramps, fishing and hiking/biking trails. Heron Lake also has unforgettable sunset views of Brazos Cliffs in the distance across the lake. Ghost Ranch has its own wellequipped campground. It has overnight lodging available as well. For more details about Ghost Ranch, visit www.ghostranch.org. Also, there are other lodging options in Abiquiu and further north in Chama. This is definitely an area that could take more than one day to explore. Or perhaps, as Ghost Ranch suggests, take time to paint, read, write, bird-watch or simply bask under blue New Mexico skies.

Cat Parents Connect with Their Felines


Cat parents share a powerful bond with their furry friends only they understand. For most cat parents, cats are confidants, friends and even part of the family. This deep connection fosters a strong sense of understanding. So much so, that one-third of cat parents revealed they communicate better with their cat than their significant other, according to a survey. In fact, 31 percent of cat owners would rather speak with their cat after a long day than their best friend, children or parents. Felines are also great at listening, providing fun entertainment and just being there. Many cat parents even report their cat can sense their change of mood faster than their spouse. This communication isnt just from the cat parent. For cats, the communication comes through tail twitching, blinking, purring, hissing and of course vocal meows. Many cat parents say they get a great deal of information from the tiniest gestures or sounds that felines make. Cats are also happy when purring, and are angry or scared when they hiss. Cat parents report their felines respond to words. Seventeen percent of the respondents report their cats understand five words, while nearly a fifth say their cats know 11 words or more.

Quick FAQs
What is LAser Lipo? Laser lipo is new technology using the power of FDA-approved lasers to shrink unwanted fat. Who Is It Appropriate For? Men and women of all ages and all sizes who are interested in body contouring and/or fat reduction should consider laser lipo. Does It Hurt? It is completely painless. How Long Does It Take? The standard treatment protocol for most individuals is 9 laser lipo treatments, generally scheduled 3 times per week for 3 weeks. Each standard session takes about 1 hour. What Areas Can You Treat? The most commonly requested area is the abdomen. Other popular treatment areas are love handles, thighs, upper arms, back of knees, back bra strap area, upper chest in men, muffin tops, complete waistline, chin and neck, and face.

Laser lipo treatments are significantly lower in cost than traditional liposuction. At Albuquerque Laser Lipo, we also offer multiple financing options so that cost is not a barrier to getting treatment.

Hollywood
By Tony Rizzo Arnold Schwarzenegger, The Gubernator, is returning to action movies now that hes no longer governor of California. For his comeback, hes chosen The Expendables 2, alongside Sylvester Stallone, Jason Arnold Statham, Schwarzenegger Jet Li, Dolph Lungren, Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis and Thor, Chris Hemsworth. It will be released Aug. 17, 2012. In a continuing effort to create a new Wizard of Oz, Summertime Entertainment will release the animated Dorothy of Oz in 2013, in IMAX and 3D, with a screenplay by L. Frank Baums great-grandson, Roger S. Baum. The story takes place the next day and has the voices of Glees Lea Michele (Dorothy), Dan Aykroyd (The Scarecrow), Kelsey Grammer (The Tin Man), Jim Belushi (The Cowardly Lion) and Bernadette Peters (Glinda the Good Witch). In addition, there are new characters such as China Princess, voiced by Megan Hilty; Marshal Mallow by Hugh Darcy; Wiser the Owl by Oliver Platt; Tugg by Patrick Stewart; and the villain of the piece, The Jester, by Martin Short. Want more of The Hunger Games? Francis Lawrence (I Am Legend and Water for Elephants) will direct the sequel. Original director Gary Ross turned it down because it has to be finished by January so star Jennifer Lawrence can shoot the sequel to X-Men: First Class. Ross felt it wasnt enough time.

Advice on Hiring a Contractor


By Samantha Mazzotta There are several things you can do to make sure a contractor is legitimate, that the work will be done on time and to your satisfaction. Here are a few tips to keep in mind: Take your time deciding: Unless the repair is an emergency, you have the luxury of getting more than one estimate from more than one contractor. Get at least three quotes before deciding. Check with the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints were lodged against the contractor and how the contractor responded. Ask the contractor if you can contact past customers. Ask for the contractors license and proof of workers compensation insurance. Get everything in writing: A statement of when the work will begin and end, how much materials will cost and what materials will be used, how much labor is involved and what that will cost, whether permits will be required, and whether the work must meet building codes. Do not allow work to begin until you have signed a contract. Never pay in advance. When paying, write a check or use a credit card. Insist on inspecting the work before providing the final payment. If a problem crops up during or after the repair job, try to resolve the issue with the contractor first. If you cant resolve the problem or cant find the contractor, contact the BBB or your state or citys consumer protection department. HOME TIP: Word of mouth is still the best way to find a good contractor. Ask neighbors, family and friends if there's a contractor they can recommend.

State Parks for Bargain Vacation


By David Uffington State parks can be a bargain for a tight vacation budget: Once you pay the entrance fee, most of the activities in the park are free. One of the best online park finders is the one created by LL Bean, the outdoor supply experts. Visit www.llbean.com/ parkfinder/search and type in the location your interested in visiting. If you search by location, youll see a number of flags on the map, each indicating a different park. You can filter your search by activities or by distance from you. Mouse over each flag for the name of the park, and click for more information. If youre going to be a frequent visitor to your states parks, consider getting a seasonal or yearly pass instead of paying day-use fees each time you go. Read the fine print: You might be able to purchase an annual vehicle pass thats cheaper than the per-person rate youll pay. Some parks sell a discount punch card thats good for a certain number of visits. Check fees for children and seniors theyre less, and in some locations seniors are free, as are disabled veterans. If youre camping, your dayuse fee is likely included in the camping fee. Note whether the park is open all year or only during warm weather months. Check, too, whether pets are welcome. Some parks have cabins and cottages available for the night or by the week. Youll need to make reservations in advance. Whether you want the occasional weekend away this summer or want to get away for a whole week, state and locals parks can be a bargain. To explore any of the 35 state parks in New Mexico, visit www.emnrd.state.nm.us. Click on State Parks for a list.

Theres always something new at the market, so its best to browse and buy what looks fresh and delicious to you. Try something new. If something is unfamiliar to you, ask the farmer what it is, how they like to prepare it and whether any special storage needs are required. Talk to your farmers. Getting to know the people who grow, raise and produce your food is part of the fun of farmers markets! Bring your own bag. Be eco-friendly by bringing your own bag and baskets. Putting your fresh produce in a cooler for the drive home will ensure that it stays fresh. Come early. If you want the best selection, try to be at the market when it opens.

Southwest Gardener
By Curtis Smith Q: I have a fig tree in my garden. When first planted, a car tire was placed around the tree base to hold and direct irrigation water. Recently, we were advised that the tire would/could pollute the dirt around the base as it degrades over time, thus, rendering the fig fruit unsuitable to consume. I have doubts regarding the accuracy of this statement. Initially, this fig gave sweet and plentiful fruit. For the past five or so years, it has produced considerable foliage and new sucker branches, but no fruit. Is it time to give up on this tree/bush and start over? John S., via email A: I agree that there is very little potential for pollution from the tire around your fig tree. Tires decompose very slowly. Some of the chemicals that may be released are large, organic chemicals that cannot pass through the plants membranes into the roots. Several factors may contribute to lack of fruit production. Cold winters that kill the productive branches can result in less production. Some fig varieties produce fruit on new growth. If a fig tree is frozen and branches killed, varieties that produce figs on new wood will produce the first year after the fig tree regrows. Varieties that produce on old wood will not produce figs for at least two years. Over fertilization with nitrogen fertilizer may result in excess growth and little production of figs. Balance the nitrogen with applications of phosphorus into the soil. You may need to punch holes with a spading fork or auger in the soil beyond the drip line and place the phosphorus fertilizer into these holes. Fig trees are tolerant of arid conditions, but do need some moisture. Regular irrigation through the growing season will help maintain tree health and its ability to produce fruit.

Several factors may contribute to lack of fruit production by fig trees.

Residential & Commercial Specialists Roofs Applied Right Last Longer

So-called fig trees do indeed grow more as a large shrub. Training to a single or few large trunks increases the risk that a cold winter will kill the tree. Allowing a fig plant to grow with multiple trunks helps it to survive and regrow after extremely cold winters.

By Mary Girsch-Bock Does the idea of shopping for new flooring fill you with dread? You remember the last time you shopped for flooring; multiple visits to cavernous warehouses, hundreds of samples to look through and vying for the attention of a sales clerk. Its not something youre looking forward to, but its becoming more difficult to ignore the worn, faded, stained carpeting in your home. Relax, theres another solution: Carpet Source.

Don Lovato (top and above at right), owner of Carpet Source, brings his mobile flooring showroom to his customers homes, where they can match colors and styles to their own dcor. No more shopping in cavernous warehouses and lugging heavy samples back home.

absentee home owners, providing them a video of how flooring samples look in their home.

Heres A Tip
by JoAnn Derson Many people have sent in the tip to use two bowls, one larger than the other, to serve cold salads at picnics. You add a few cups of crushed ice to the larger bowl, then nestle the smaller bowl into it, making it chilled. In any case, remember: Dont leave food out longer than two hours. If youre planning food platters for your barbecue, consider making several smaller platters instead of one large dish. The large ones are harder to store when you prep beforehand, but a better reason is that the items will not go stale/too warm/too cold quite as fast, and its easy to switch out plates throughout the party. Using plastic cups for a crowd? Remember to put out a permanent marker, colorful rubber bands or some other way to mark each persons glass. Purchase a small cooler to use for large quantities of side dishes. For example, a cooler advertised as fitting a six-pack of drinks is perfect for holding macaroni salad at a summer gathering. Do not use it for anything else, and it retains its cold temperature despite the heat (when everyone remembers to keep the lid closed, of course).

Johns Hopkins Study Links Hearing Loss to Dementia


By George Bourne of HearMart Even with the recent studies, I do not believe that hearing loss is the cause of dementia. But as your hearing level goes down, you quit paying attention and quit being a part of life. The easiest thing to say is, Its dementia. Instead, I feel its actually a lack of sensory stimulation. Hearing aids do a lot to help with that. At our age, we are interested in anything that might excuse our memory difficulties. We make a list, but leave the list at home. Where did I put that hammer? Why did I come in here? What did she tell me to buy? These alone arent reasons to purchase hearings aids even though some hearing aid salesmen disagree. Instead, these are reasons to pay better attention and try to listen. You can usually hear better than you think you can. First, get a good hearing evaluation. They are free at most places. A hearing loss specialist should be able to thoroughly explain your hearing loss and

Fortunately, HearMart offers makes and models to offset each area of concern. We dont push expensive hearing aids, or even the smallest or the most complicated. Spending more money on a hearing aid doesnt make your hearing better, and a smaller device isnt necessarily the best for an individual patients situation. After our free hearing evaluation, the most appropriate device can be determined, whether thats an analog device that simply amplifies sound, or a digital one that makes sounds clearer. We service, clean and program most models of hearing aids no matter where you bought them. We even provide a money-back guarantee and a one-year warranty for the mechanical component on our hearing devices, along with a lifetime warranty for cleaning and adjustments. At HearMart, were confident we have the lowest prices in the state, and we offer discounts to veterans and senior citizens.

Landscaping Made Easy


By Mike Dooley Occasionally, its necessary to voice horticultural opinions that cause controversy. This article will cause an indignant reaction among some and total agreement from others. There are always gardeners who can grow anything and arent put off by losing plants or having to do maintenance that others would find annoying. This list is for the rest of us. Russian Sage. This is a perfect example of a plant that does too well in our area. When I moved here 11 years ago, I even fell for the trap of thinking that it must be a good plant it grows everywhere. Wrong! Its too invasive. Spanish Broom. I know you love the fragrant and profuse blooms. The question is how will you like the plant when large portions of it are dying as it grows 8 feet tall and 12 feet wide? Aspen. Everyone loves Aspen until they realize that youll probably lose 50 percent of the ones you plant. Lavender. I dont like plants that are woody in the winter. Why not plant its look alike catmint and have a much longer bloom cycle? In the winter simply cut it to 3 inches, leaving a much nicer winter presentation. Ocotillo. Folks that like desert plants love to install

Spanish broom is a plant with fragrant and profuse blooms. However, you might be put off by its potentially large size.

Ocotillo. Plant them beside the Aspens so that when 50 percent of them die, you can remove both plants without walking too far. Globe Willow. This plant is loved by everyone who doesnt have one. They look really nice in someone elses yard. Yes, they grow very fast, but a lot of the root growth will try to get into your sewer and water lines. As you are trying to dig the roots out of the pipes, youll notice that they also leave lots of debris on the ground. I hope I havent ruined your gardening day. Happy gardening!

The Last Roof Youll Ever Need to Buy: BAC Enterprises


By Robin Martinez Imagine never having to spend another dime on your roof. No service calls for loose shingles. No buckets catching drips while you wait for a repairman. No need to paint the roof to spruce up the appearance after years of sun damage. Youre in luck! BAC Enterprises offers guaranteed lifetime roofing for your home, whether flat or pitched roof. Bill Satterfield first began contracting in Roswell over 40 years ago. Then in 1982, he joined with his son, Clint, to form BAC Enterprises. With offices in Roswell and Albuquerque, they strive to cover and protect homes and businesses across New Mexico, offering the last roof customers will ever need to buy. Having discovered what they believe are the best systems in the industry, BAC offers only two products the IB Roof System for flat roofs and the SteelROCK system for pitched

system includes a high performance PVC membrane, doublesided clad metal, corrosionresistant fasteners and pre-fabricated flashings. All seams are heat welded using specialized robotic welding equipment. The IB Roof System is fire resistant and is uniquely formulated to withstand ponding water. Moisture will not pass through the IB membrane, Clint notes. All accessories, flashings, IB vents, roofing membrane and even the fasteners that attach the roof are covered with the same lifetime warranty for your home. In fact, since the start of IB Roof Systems in 1977, every

need for messy demolition. The white IB membrane reflects up to 90 percent of the heat that normally enters a home through the roof, lowering your utility bills and increasing your homes energy efficiency, Clint says. With substantial energy savings, your roof could actually pay for itself! And while other roofing companies may offer a similar-looking product, BAC Enterprises is the only company in New Mexico authorized to sell and install this high-performance system. For pitched roofs, BAC offers the equally impressive SteelROCK roof system. Every SteelROCK panel is formed from 26-gauge steel, stamped into profiles including Business Profile shingle, wood shake BAC Enterprises and tile. The steel is 4201 Hawkins Rd.

Kitchen Diva
By Angela Shelf Medearis If youre searching for the perfect graduation or bridal gift, wok this way! You can purchase a wok and use it as a gift container. Fill it with a beautiful pair of chopsticks, curry and spices, sesame oil and wooden stir-fry utensils. Stir-Frying Tips Prep all the veggies in advance in similar-sized pieces for even cooking; Vegetables should be rinsed and drained ahead of time; If using a non-stick wok, pre-heat on medium-high to high heat for at least a minute before adding oil; Drizzle the oil down the sides of the wok so that it coats both the sides and the bottom of the wok; When adding sauce to vegetables and/or meat, form a well in the middle by pushing the ingredients up the sides of the wok. Add the sauce in the middle and stir to thicken before combining with the other ingredients. WOK-FRIED SALMON AND VEGETABLES For the Sauce: 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 1 tablespoon sugar, honey or stevia 1 tablespoon grated ginger root 1 tablespoon cornstarch 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce 1 to 2 teaspoons roasted red chili paste, to taste For the Stir-Fry: 2 tablespoons peanut oil 1 medium yellow onion, peeled and chopped 2 cups broccoli florets 2 medium carrots, sliced in ribbons 3 bunches baby bok choy, rinsed and sliced in quarters 6 green onions, cut in half, roots removed and discarded 2 cups chopped purple cabbage

Wok-fried salmon and vegetables can make a quick, easy and delicious meal.

1/4 pound salmon fillet 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil 1. In small bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, ginger root, cornstarch, hoisin and fish sauce, and red chili paste. Mix well and set aside to allow flavors to combine. 2. In large wok (or skillet), heat oil over high heat. Add in

onion, broccoli and carrots. Stirfry, stirring constantly, for 34 minutes or until vegetables begin to soften. Add bok choy, green onions and the cabbage, stirring constantly. Immediately place salmon fillet on top of vegetables. Reduce heat to medium, cover wok or skillet and cook for 45 minutes or until salmon flakes when tested with fork. Flake salmon and stir into vegetables. 3. Make a well in the center of the wok or skillet. Stir the vinegar mixture and add it into the wok or skillet.

Toyo Auto Services Keeps Your Car Running Optimally


By Rena Larraaga Does your heart sink when a warning light flashes on your cars dashboard? Do you dread taking your car to the dealership for regular maintenance because of the high cost? Put your fears aside and know that there is a reputable auto repair shop that has the same diagnostic equipment, tools and parts as a dealership as well as an honest, trained professional staff. Its Toyo Auto Services. Over a dozen years ago, Robert McKnight and Nick Munger met while working as master technicians at American Toyota. Together, they decided to go into business opening Toyo Auto Services to give their customers what they thought big dealerships were lacking personalized service. If you bring your car to Toyo Auto Services, youll know that either Nick, Robert, or technician Bill Beck will be working on your car. All are factorytrained ASE Masters, with certifications from the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence. While theyve been trained to work on most cars, including hybrids, they choose to work on the following Japanese makes: Toyota, Honda, Scion, Lexus, Nissan, Infinite, Acura and Subaru. If youre driving around with the check engine light on, youre likely wasting fuel and causing your car to run inefficiently. But you may also be doing damage to your car. Instead of waiting for something to go wrong, take your car to Toyo Auto Services for routine maintenance. Its better to be proactive than reactive, says Nick. Theres no reason you cant have a reliably performing car with over 200,000 miles on it. The key is regular maintenance. Each service begins with a multi-point inspection, ensuring that the technicians at Toyo Auto Services know exactly what the issue is before beginning any work. We pride ourselves on taking the time to explain to customers just what

Taking good care of your vehicle will make sure your vehicle takes care of you. Dont wait for something bad to happen that leaves you stranded. Trust your routine maintenance and all types of repair to Toyo Auto Services. Pictured from left are co-owner Robert McKnight, coowner Nick Munger and technician Bill Beck.

repairs are necessary, Robert says. Our reputation was built on this level of honesty. Toyo Auto Services uses the same parts youd find at the dealer. We use original equip-

ment (OE) and quality replacement parts because we have learned from experience that not using them means trouble in the long run, says Nick. In addition to regular manu-

facturer-recommended maintenance, Toyo Auto Services also works on brakes, air conditioning, electrical components, radiators, timing belts and more.

Each employee shares our vision and they take the time to do things right. In the end, SmartScapes customers are provided with a completely customized space that is an extension of their needs, desires and lifestyle.

There are many different types of loans available. Each loan is dependent on where the home is located, price and other determining factors. I work with lenders that specialize in each specific type of loans to make sure my clients are given the best loan for their situation. The three big considerations the lender looks at when you purchase a home are credit, debt and income. For most of the following loans the Brian Ortiz minimum required credit score is 620. Below are Realtor the most common. MFA loan: The buyer can purchase a home with as little as a $500 down payment. The buyer is getting a second lien loan of up to $8,000 for their down payment and closing cost for 100% financing. FHA Loan: Buyers need to put down 3.5% of the purchase price as a down payment. Your down payment may be given to you as a gift from a family member or significant other. FHA 203K Loan: Buyer needs to put 3.5% of the total amount borrowed as a down payment. The lender can give the buyer up to $35,000 for repairs, which can include appliances. USDA loan: This loan is a 100% financing loan. The home has to be in a 'rural' area. Areas that qualify are Southwest Albuquerque, Valencia County and certain areas of Sandoval County. Conventional: Not as popular as it was several years ago. The minimum down payment is 5%. Requires Private Mortgage insurance, which is typically higher then FHA loans. VA Loan: Veterans qualify for zero down, 100% financing. Requires a funding fee if not more than 10% disabled. Other loans include: Manufactured and Modular Housing Loans, 186 Native American Loans, Traditional HUD Loans and the HUD Good Neighbor Next Door Program, Home Path Loans from Freddie Mac and New Construction Loans. For each of the above loans you are able to put more down if you desire. Interest rates for each loan is dependent upon the individual buyer. Each loan is specific to the buyers situations. Call me to let me know your situation and I will have the right mortgage expert call you.
