Prayers to those in the path of the winter storm & in need 1/21/2016

January 21, 2016 they tell us that in the Washington DC area, where I reside, we can expect between 12 - 24 inches of snow.

Since it has been my experience, since 1991 in this area, that if there is one snowflake falling traffic, which is already the worst in the nation, comes to a halt as the world's worst drivers flood the streets and highways.

Fortunatley, unlike Washington DC which had to apologize for NOT being ready for a winter snowstorm even though it has been predicted from the Farmers Almanac to Weather.com to the local news for weeks/months, there are many hard working profesionals who are prepared to not only clear the streets but to help those in need (i.e. food, shelter, clothing, etc.) but there are also good people/neighbors who go above and beyond to help.

My prayers go out to the sick, elderly, and poor not only in this area but across this nation and beyond.

As is the case every moment of everyday I think of, love, miss, pray for, want the best for, etc. my beloved children. No matter where you are, or where you go, I love you....always. Dad.

Take care and may God bless you.

Microsoft Edge not working or showing up Windows 10 SOLUTION FIXED

Please use the following steps:

Open an Administrator CMD window.  If you can't find a way, use these steps:

Make sure you have a check mark beside "Create this task with administrative privileges"
Type CMD
Type the following commands at the CMD prompt:
    dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    sfc /scannnow

This step worked for me and I had been trying for months to find a solution and it was frustrating x 1,000,000. Let me know if it works for you.

Run these commands:
1) Type in "powershell"

2) Cut and paste this EXACTLY and include the { & the }

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Check to be sure this command ran, showed a blue progress indicator and then returns to the prompt.

If you see a red error, then the command may have been typed or pasted incorrectly, or there may be an larger problem with Windows 10.  Try again.

Check to see if the issue is resolved.

If not, restart the PC.In this case try as a new administrator user account.

If the new user also fails, go up to the steps for "3. If EITHER command does not show." above. We need to repair Windows.

Great song from the 1970s and memories of days gone by

Eclectic.

Yes it is a real word that I have used occasionally.

No I didn't misspell it (though I am guilty of many misspellings and violations of the rules of grammar in many of my blogs, posts, etc. but I try) pertaining to "electric".

Yes I am an Elvis Presley fan and I enjoy so many of his songs from the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. Some of which are well known and many others (the vast majority) are exceptional but not widely known by the general public including man Elvis Presley fans.

Back to eclectic. That is how I would describe my musical preferences. If it is of quality, sung with passion and real vocal talent, then odds are I would like it...as my song collection/playlists affirm.

The video of the song "don't pull your love" is one of the songs from my teenage years/youth that I enjoy. Not only do I listen to this song but I have some great memories associated with it. Music, and songs, have the ability to "move" us. To take us back to a certain time, place, event, etc. as is the case with this song.

Though I consider myself, and the IQ tests confirm YIPPEE, intelligent I still (after 52 and soon to be 53 years upon this earth) can't grasp that one's voice can be transferred by a microphone unto vinyl records, online streaming, cds, dvds, etc. Nonetheless I am glad that Edison gave this world, among many he achieved in his lifetime, the gift of recordings.

To think that someone, individually and/or collectively, wrote the words and then added a melody thus creating a song that is associated with a time long ago AND that still is enjoyed is remarkable. Hats off to every song writer, musician, singer, etc. Job well done.

Before I end this post, and thanks for reading, I was captivated by an hour long restoration project involving the largest pipe organ located in Atlantic City (I spend the weekend there once and I have special memories of her - of us - what once was). Here is the trailer via YouTube:

Eclectic.

It applys to my taste in music, among other things, as well as my interests outside of; God, family, friends, passions, everyday life, etc.

The two videos contained in this post are interesting, and involves talented and passionate people, and I hope you concur.

Take care and may God bless you and yours...always.

How to easily replace the belt to a Maytag electric dryer

If you dryer is working, but it is not rotating/moving, odds are that the belt is broken or come loose. To cover your bases you can get a new belt at retail stores like Sears and also online for about $ 12.00.

The tools you will need are a screwdriver (phillips and non-phillips head) and a ratchet with sockets. The "screws" have small heads to them FYI.

Here is a great video that covers 90% of "step by step" instructions and the other 10% (i.e. additional 4 steps) I have outlined in writing below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FV6Cvw-ysfk

The first is to make sure that the belt is around the drum in the right place (i.e. look for a grove or use the black scuffs around the drum and put the belt exactly where the prior black scuffs were). Mine did not have any groove to put the belt on but it went in the middle of the drum and I used the black scuffs as a guide. This step must be done first because if you try to first attach it through the roller pulley, and motor, you will never be able to get the belt around the drum. Second is that you will need to put something under the drum (i used a shoe box) so it is in it's proper place, is level, and wont fall forward. Without this it is almost impossible to thread the belt to the pulley roller and motor. Third is to put the roller pulley (it has a yellowish roller with a black metal "z shaped" design) aligned with the two slots on bottom of dryver and HOLD IT DOWN to the floor of the dryer with your right hand at all times. Then put the belt through the roller pulley (this part is in the video) with your left hand and then put the belt on the motor. Last is to use your hands to slowly turn the top of the drum for about 30 seconds so that you know it works before you reinstall the front and top.
