Michael Moore is not a fan of Obamacare. (Justin Sullivan/Getty Images) Like Moore, Iâd prefer a more nationalized health-care system.

Staining western red cedar. After priming western red cedar siding, shingles, and shakes, you can stain the woodâs surface. A stain protects the cedar from weathering, discoloration, and moisture damage. Walk into any home do-it-yourself paint and supply store and youâre bound to be inundated with finish-stains.
Watch for curling or yellow leaves. This is often a sign that your cedar tree has been infested with aphids or scales. Spray the foliage, especially the undersides of the leaves, with a strong spray of water from a garden hose to knock the pests off.edar apple rust usually won't kill the tree, but it can cause the leaves to turn brown and fall off. Remove the galls by pulling them off the affected areas. Wear gloves to do this. Apply a fungicide to prevent the galls from spreading or returning.
