Lift-All
Replaced the hydraulic hose yesterday. 6 quarts of hydraulic oil, and we have lift! Yay! It only took $30 and two trips to town! The hose itself was easy, but when I tried to hook it up, I found out I needed an adapter. The old hose had a fixed male end, like a garden hose, the other end was also a male end, but it could swivel. The new hose had two fixed male ends. Just needed an adapter with a swiveling female end in order to hook it up. Also needed to pick up a long flexible funnel in order to fill the lift-all reservoir. So, now I can use the loader on the tractor.

kinetic • \kuh-NET-ik\ • adjective
1 : of or relating to the motion of material bodies and the forces and energy associated with them
2 a : active, lively
b : dynamic, energizing
3 : of or relating to kinetic art
Did you know?
"Kinetic" comes from the Greek word "kinētikos," meaning "of motion," which in turn traces to the verb "kinein," meaning "to move." Compared to some other English words that have their roots in Greek, "kinetic" is a relatively young English word; the earliest evidence we have of its use is from 1864. Although it deals with the motion of images rather than material bodies, the word "cinema" can also be traced back to "kinein." The verb "kinein" is the source of the Greek "kinēma," meaning "movement," to which the French referred in the coining of their "cinématographe." "Cinématographe" is the word that gave rise to the English word "cinematograph," of which "cinema" is simply a shortened form.

Word of the Day for Monday August 5, 2013
contraband • \KAHN-truh-band\ • noun
1 : illegal or prohibited traffic in goods : smuggling
2 : goods or merchandise whose importation, exportation, or possession is forbidden; also : smuggled goods
3 : a slave who during the American Civil War escaped to or was brought within the Union lines
Did you know?
"Contraband" first appeared in English in the early 1500s as a borrowing of Italian "contrabbando." This Italian word can be traced to the Medieval Latin word "contrabannum," a combination of "contra-" ("against") and "bannum" ("decree"). "Bannum" is Germanic in origin and is related to Old High German "bannan" ("to command"). "Bannan" is also related to Middle English "bannen" ("to summon or to curse"), the source of the English verb "ban" (which now means "to prohibit" but which once also meant "to curse").
