Has the hit counter always been at the bottom? I just noticed it there.
I am surprised that there are only 4 contributors. I hope our homeowners are checking in from time to time for any updates.

Fountain
Just an update.
It took me a while to get the paperwork mailed off with the deposit, sorry this is my fault. Cinci Fountains has already ordered the fountain, so we can expect installation any time.
Lastly for anyone who has wondered. They have agreed to dispose of the old fountain for us. He said he may be able to use it for parts. I said if you want it you can have it, just get it out of here. I really didn't want to have to find a way to dispose of the thing.
More updates if needed.

LCOH Opens soon!
The LCOH is opening this summer/fall off of Old Western Row Rd.
My understanding is that they will not have any "criminal " holds. Since I work in the ER that accepts all the mental illness in Warren County I'll be able to see what clients are placed where.
Oh and they are hiring.................and accepting new patients ................I'm not applying for either position, so don't suggest it Rick.

Lindner Center of HOPE
The Craig and Carl Lindner Families presented the University of Cincinnati (UC) with a generous gift of $30 million to establish the Craig and Frances Lindner Center of HOPE. This comprehensive behavioral health care facility will be designed to provide inpatient and outpatient state-of-the-science diagnostic and treatment services integrated with primary medical care and clinical research. The 86,500–square-foot world-class facility will be located on 35 acres in a private setting in Mason, Ohio, with 56 beds serving adolescents, adults and older adults. It will be staffed by UC College of Medicine physicians and will be jointly operated by The Lindner Foundation and The Health Alliance of Greater Cincinnati. Individualized treatment plans will be based on patients’ physical, psychological, social, cultural, educational, spiritual and vocational backgrounds.
The Center will be a center of excellence, incorporating evidence-based treatment in all modalities of care with access to the latest scientific advances in clinical neuroscience. Additionally, it will serve as a community resource for consultation, referrals, education and research. The Lindner Center of HOPE is slated to open in 2008.

beating a dead horse

Kill Visible Crabgrass
Crabgrass gets its name because it sprawls from a central root low across the ground. It can become a problem quickly because it is able to grow vigorously in hot, dry conditions. Before dying in the fall, a single weed can distribute thousands of seeds which will be ready to germinate in spring. Crabgrass is a problem, but you can rid your lawn of the weeds easily with our plan.
Prevention and Maintenance
Set mowing height to high
Higher mowing encourages lawn grasses to shade and prevent the germination of crabgrass seeds. A deep, thick lawn seldom contains much crabgrass. You can discourage crabgrass by mowing at the proper height for your grass type.
Deep water your lawn
Weeds are better adapted to adverse growing conditions than most lawn grasses. Shallow and infrequent watering will only weaken the roots of your grass, while allowing the crabgrass to thrive and take over. Water lawns deeply and less frequently. When you water, wet the soil to a depth of 4-6 inches. This usually requires the equivalent of ½-1 inch of rainfall.
Prevent crabgrass seeds from taking root
Apply Scotts® Halts® Crabgrass Preventer or Scotts® Turf Builder® Fertilizer with Halts® Crabgrass Preventer in early spring (before temperatures reach 65°F) to feed your grass while providing a barrier that prevents crabgrass seeds from germinating. Use our Annual Program Builder™ to create a complete lawn feeding schedule.

fountain update
Just a quick note for those of you keeping track; it will be roughly three weeks for the new fountain installation. We'll make another post if we hear anything different than that.
If you see John Conyers, thank him for his diligence in researching this and getting the ball rolling. And thanks to Dale Rook for his technical input ... and feel free to encourage Dale to sponsor a christening party.
I hope Chicago doesn't miss their fountain ... just kidding ... ours won't be quite as big.

get your lawn treatment now
This is not a plug for Home Depot nor Scotts brand products - it is only a reminder that unless you are Mike Ellis, you are probably procrastinating regarding your lawn treatment.
Now is the time to get that crab grass preventer down. I just went to Home Depot where I picked up 15,000 sq ft worth of the following:
Of course I forgot my Round-Up to kill that grass popping up in the mulch beds ... but I can always go back to get that (and stop by Graeters on the way).
Speaking of mulch, the Boy Scouts Troop 750 has a great deal on mulch. If you did not get your flyer on your mail box, call Michelle at 398-2019 for details. Orders need to be received by March 21 and they deliver April 12&13.
