|this did not help me with my 2007 - either the cars are too different or this isn't complete enough
|I decided to replace the union nut aka quick release fitting aka 3R608 with the above method. I stuffed a paper shop rag in the HP line and carefully ground a ring around the old connector until the threaded end separated. I twisted off the retaining ring and the other half slid off. I managed not to ding the high pressure line during the operation. I cleaned off the end and installed the new 3R608. Reinstalled the pump and she's running great - no leaks!

I would like to add some info to this thread incase someone reads this one and not any others. If anyone feels this should move to it's own thread please make me aware. I do not wish to thread jack, just wanted to add more info. If you only have a leak at the pipe where it goes into the union nut, or the nut itself, then this lil novel is for you.
If your union nut and pipe ONLY is what leaks, then you can unbolt only that nut and swap the nut itself. Move the coolant expansion tank outta the way. Move the ps reservior out of the way. Use a 8mm on the tensioner and take your belt loose. You WILL need a 18mm crows foot (as the op mentioned) and a couple of long extensions to unbolt the nut from underneath, unbolt the line 'holder' from the motor on top, so the line will wiggle well enough for ya, then wiggle it out from under the pump, and pull it up where you can work with the nut end on the radiator support. To get the old nut off of the pipe, I had to very precisely and carefully use a cutting wheel to cut around it where the brass locking ring is, (observe your new nut to see where you need to do your cut all the way around) until I reached the ring, used a tiny flat-head to break it off, then both pieces of the old nut will slide right off. The new nut slides on and clicks in place like buttah, then just bolt'r back up.
You do not need an o-ring in the pump for the union nut to tighten 'against', as shown above in this great write up. (Thank you for it!)
Ford does not have that in their parts diag or the procedures. My leak was bubbling from between the pipe and the union nut, so I bought the nut itself from Ford for 8 bucks. (Miracle that they sell it by itself) It comes with all the rings pre-installed on it that it requires. Buying this will keep you from having to buy and replace the whole line.
I would recommend removing the belt. As bad as that sucks, you will waste crazy time and effort trying to get the nut to 'start' unless you take the belt loose. Then you can get a proper grip on the nut with your fingers.
I also would like to reassure ppl that have to drive home with no ps that my pump survived just fine even though I drove 20-30 minutes with it totally empty. It made quite a bit of racket, so I figured it would need to be replaced, but it is quiet as a mouse again. After the union nut job was done, it was still very loud and I discovered I had two leaks. The dang ps switch on the pump was leaking out of the connector also. I swapped that, and THEN the ps pump was totally quiet like new. So look for that if your pump is still noisy after the nut swap. Thank you FLZ for chiming in earlier before I did this gig today.
|The ATF fluid is cheap, fill and see what happens. The worst case scenario is getting a new PS and high pressure line (connects to the PS rack). I went to Autozone and paid less than $60 for a new pump and the line is close to $50 (I think that's the price...). After 30k miles, I'm impressed the AZ parts lasted......... for now.
|cheap sleeper
I apologize for revival of this thread, but may I ask if anyone out there had their pump live through a full dump of the fluid, to the point where you finished the drive home with no power steering?
Long story, but it dumped, I refilled to finish a small trip, it dumped again from full before I made it home. It was obviously making racket, but didn't sound like things were breaking, more of just a fine vibration. I have the leak from the ps line to the nut (upper black ring). I drove about 25 minutes with zero ps. Anyone else do that and the pump still work? Gonna put new ends on tomorrow, just curious if I HAVE to get a pump. Much thanks to everyone in this thread, great ppl on this whole forum!
|Lifesaver man, thank you very much.
|I found two options. First, you can order from the Ford dealer. They want $6.00 for one and $10.00 for the other. I was shocked that I would end up paying almost $20.00 with tax for two tiny orings. I know its not alot of money but its the principal of it. Thats just absurd!! The second option was to take off the two orings, and bring them to Napa auto parts. They had two large containers of orings .One was sae the other metric. I found two that were very close in size, ever so slightly larger than the stock ones. I did not record the sizes unfortunately. Removal is a pain but doable. I removed the dogbone mount for clearance. after puling the single bolt out of the mounting plate the lines pull right out. I made a small hook out of a large needle so i could remove the stock orings without tearing them. that way i could try to match them up better. Install is easier and just the reverse of removal. Leak fixed :) hope that helps.
I had new o-rings come with my new line. I would imagine you could get them at a ford dealer, if not out of a assortment kit at a autoparts store. If all fails check out a hardwear store.

Power Steering leak
Hi, I have searched the various threads to no avail. I need to replace the little o-rings on the pressure and return lines at the rack. Where to get these? What size are they? The how-to sticky shows this as an optional step but thats where my leak is. Any info would be appreciated.

Mods, I wasn't sure where the correct place for this is, as it will only touch on CCW issues. The CCW subject has been well addressed in other threads. Please move if needed.
I decided to take the time and type all this out because I have seen a few "what to do if pulled over" threads, and thought it might be helpful to others here. Nothing I say here is law, legal advice or double secret insider information; it is just my thoughts after a long day of making traffic stops. Other LEO's please add on, I am tired now and I am sure I haven't thought of everything.
What to do before the stop-
You know when you are going to get stopped, you probably even know why.
You look in your rear view and see that cruiser on your bumper.
1-Maintain your speed. If you are going mach 3, gradually slow to the limit and sit tight. Don't jam your brakes, it won't help you now. It also won't help if you go 15 mph under the limit after you have been noticed, it won't reduce the severity of your violation.
2- Don't just pull over because you know I'm going to stop you, wait for me to signal
OK, now we have traveled a few blocks, and the overhead lights come on. Heres how when and where to stop.
1- those lights on top of a police car are not Christmas lights. It means pull to the right... not the left... the right. Did I say not left? Yup, pull over to the right. You never know, I may not be after you, but need to get around you! Just pull over to the right!
2-you don't need to jam on your brakes, just ease on over and stop
3- You don't need to find a "safe" place to pull over. That is my job; I turned on my lights when I did for a reason. I am willing to bet I know the area and traffic patterns a little better than you do.
4- if you must pull off the road and into a driveway, remember that there is another car behind you that has to fit in that drive way too. Don't make me block the entire outside lane with my car. Also remember that we are now going to inconvenience the homeowner who won't be able to use his driveway for the duration of the stop. If it's at night, we woke them up too.
5- if you pull into a parking lot, please don't pull into a parking spot. This is very annoying to me. Just pull over. If you pull into a spot, I have to block an isle with my car, among other reasons I won't go into here, and it's just very annoying.
5.5- stay parallel with your orginal direction of travel.
6- now is not the time to put your seatbelt on
So now we are stopped, and your about to meet me.
1- if you don't have your papers ready, don't be digging around in your car for them. Wait, and tell me you don't know where your insurance card is, we will deal with it in a better manner. This is also the time to tell me if you are armed.
2- don't complain to me that my spotlight is blinding you... Duh! Why do you think I did that?
3- save your cutie pooh jokes... I've heard them a million times. They are not funny the 1st time around, and they are not funny 1000th time. A perfect example of this is; when an officer walks into the room, yell out "I didn't do it" or "Officer, arrest my buddy here for xyz" I have heard that stupid crap so many times it makes me want to puke.
4-Don't ask me "is there a problem officer?" Of course there is, I didn't stop you because I want to have tea and crumpets. 95% of the people I stop know why I am stopping them. I know, you know so drop the act. If you truly don't know why, wait until the officer is done talking, if he did not say why, then ask. I am supposed to tell you why, but I am human too and I do forget from time to time.
5- when asked for your D/L, just give it to me. Don't play games like "I am not going to until you do this or that" You are picking a fight you will not win.
6- If you are guilty, admit so. I don't care if you are late getting the kids to the pool. I care that you were speeding. Acknowledge your mistake, and I am far more likely to consider my job done with out giving you a invitation to a party at the court house.
If you are not guilty, court is not held on the side of the road. Make your arguments in the courtroom.
7- If you do not have insurance, don't lie to me. People lie to me all day long; I know when people are lying to me. You are fooling no one.
If you do have insurance, have the card that proves so in your car. I cannot look up some magic number to see if you have it or not. I need the current card from your company to prove so. No proof of insurance means a definite ticket from me.
8- remember that I am just a regular guy with a family, friends and few dogs. I am not a uniform, and I am not the cop that mistreated you 15 years ago in Boise.
9- if you are a passenger in the car, a great rule to follow is "do not speak unless spoken to"
10- hands on the upper part of the wheel, dome light on. It's a nice touch if you shut the car off too.
11- turn down your radio, don't be on the phone. That is an instant ticket from me too.
12-if you are a woman, crying does not help you. If you show me any body parts that I would not normally see, you will get at least one additional charge. Although you may be a great looking woman, you are not worth my career or my marriage. And no, I won't go out with you. I guess all that would go for guys too.:gah:
13- do not get out of your car for any reason, or open your door unless you are told to do so. That is viewed as a hostile move, and it will not be pleasant.
14- no, you may not see my radar. No, I am not required to show it to you. I will not bring anyone into my car without being secured.
15- watching TV does not make you a lawyer, or even knowledgeable about what my job is.
16- I dont care who you know. If you played golf with the chief last summer, good for you. He's the one who sent me out here to write you a ticket. Also, I play golf with him often.
I go back to my car for awhile, this is what I am doing; I am running out your history, both traffic and criminal. I am writing out a citation/warning and notes on my log card. This sometimes takes longer than I like due to radio traffic, and waiting on responses from other agencies.
Now we meet for the second time-
1-If I give you a ticket, don't argue. It's done at that point, your wasting both of our times.
2- you will be asked to sign the ticket. It is not an admission to anything. It is simply that you acknowledge the fact that you were issued at citation. Yes, I can and will jail you if you do not want to sign for the ticket. I can also keep your D/L as a bond.
3- keep in mind that you rolling a stop sign may not seem all that big of a deal, but it would be a big deal if we were on your street.
4-If I give you a break, it not because I like you, and we are not friends now.
5- sorry, nothing personal, but don't try to shake my hand. I am not going to reach inside your car, that is a great way to get killed.
6- When we are all done, don't sit on the side of the road putting all you stuff away. Move on down the road. I don't want to sit behind you while you call your momma to complain about me.
I am sure I will think of more but I am tired. Feel free to ask whatever questions you have, or if you're an LEO please add on.

BlackBerry once owned the U.S. mobile phone market. In 2008, the company was responsible for 46% of the market, a figure which plunged to only 2% last year according to IDC. Heins is eager to show the U.S. what BlackBerry 10 has to offer to get the market share moving back up. Meanwhile, the executive is resigned to the fact that U.S. carriers have a longer testing process than overseas carriers. He says, "It is what it is, we need to respect that."
third place behind Android and iOS in market share and despite his hopes for a strong start in the U.K. where the BlackBerry Z10 launched first, he said the results have been above expectations with the white version of the phone sold out, and the black model hard to restock. He said that many U.K. buyers are moving to BlackBerry from another platform which he considers a bonus since the company first targeted long time 'Berry users in the region.
While each carrier is different, the CEO said that 6 to 8 weeks after a carrier releases the all-touch BlackBerry Z10, the physical QWERTY equipped BlackBerry Q10 will launch. Responding to criticism suggesting that BlackBerry should have released the BlackBerry Q10 first because of the manufacturer's traditional emphasis on a strong keyboard, Heins said that the touchscreen model was more complicated and that he wanted to have that model finished first. In addition, Heins pointed out that BlackBerry had missed the BYOD trend in the workplace and since people were bringing their touchscreen phones to the office, he wanted the Z10 to be considered for both personal and business use.
With the BlackBerry Z10 launching in Canada on Tuesday, we should soon find out if the U.K. experience was a positive sign for the resurgent company, or just a fluke.

Google will be forced to change the way it presents search results in Europe or face sanctions from Brussels for unfairly manipulating its position as the world's biggest internet search engine.
The European Union's competition chief, Joaquin Almunia, said it is his conviction" that Google is unfairly promoting links to its own services above those of third party companies, and that he fears it is abusing its dominant position.
Google has been locked in a long-running row over whether it has changed its search results to give preferential treatment to links to its own services, at the expense of those from competitors.
Last week US regulators gave Google the all-clear, but Mr Almunia, who is heading up a Brussels' investigation into the matter, made it clear that he will take the opposite stance.

NAGOYA – A small, low-cost satellite developed by a group of companies in the Chubu region and Daido University will be sent into space in December, according to Nagoya University.
ChubuSat-1 was developed by Nagoya-based Daido and a group of small businesses engaged in the aerospace industry. It will be launched on a Russian rocket and conduct space debris observation under the supervision of Nagoya University, officials said Wednesday.
The joint development was proposed by professor Hiroyasu Tajima at Nagoya University's Solar-Terrestrial Environment Laboratory. Tajima said the group hopes to launch more satellites to bring costs low enough for private companies to enter the commercial satellite business.
If the launch succeeds and the group can expand its knowhow, costs could drop to less than one-hundredth of the current figure, Tajima said.
The 50-kg satellite is a cube measuring 50 cm per side and equipped with solar panels and a high-definition camera, they said.
The small businesses group, named Meiyu Aerospace Support Technology Team, began developing it last May with free technical support from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd.

Right in the middle of the controversy over whether easily concealable GPS devices let federal law enforcement agencies negate the Fourth Amendment at the discretion of individual agents, the tech press has stepped up to show you what the police or FBI would like you to carry for it, and how to hack the thing if you find one.
In mid-April the D.C. Court of Appeals ruled that police aren't allowed to put a GPS in your car to track your movements without either telling you or getting a warrant.
Pesky, I know, but pretty clearly covered by the don't-illegally-search-and-seize portion of the Fourth Amendment, though the TSA apparently gets a pass on the part that requires probable cause before security staffs can grope around to discover whether there's something dangerous in your pocket or if you're just happy to be there.
The Justice Dept. asked the Supreme Court to reconsider the case, which it contends would make it illegal for a police car to cruise behind your car for too long – even by coincidence -- lest it be thought to be following you.
Appeals Court Judge Douglas Ginsberg certainly doesn't hold it. Following someone persistently – especially when you do it using a planted bug so you can see their whereabouts all the time is not at all the same as just cruising in close proximity to someone, or even to following them purposely for a day or two.
"It is one thing for a passerby to observe or even follow someone during a single journey," Ginsburg wrote in his decision."It is another thing for a stranger to [dog] his prey until he has identified all the places, people, amusements, and chores that make up that person's hitherto private routine."
The Obama administration also asked the court to look at the question, not because it's for or against GPS tracking, apparently, but because the decision as it stands is too vague.
U.S.-born college student Yasir Afifi is suing the FBI for putting a GPS on his car to track him because some investigators were suspicious about his ethnic and political background.
He discovered the device in 2005, when the economy was good mainly because the Global War on Terror had extended the need for highly focused surveillance operations that half the people in U.S. were being paid by the FBI to spy on the other half.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) filed a civil-rights lawsuit against the FBI on Afifi's behalf.
Fortunately, many citizens were up to no good, but the vast bulk were just incredibly boring and all but a very few of the rest were up to no good in a way that wouldn't terrorize anyone. Not anyone who mattered to the people allowing the surveillance, anyway.
The GPS tracking mechanisms are custom made, but look in general like inch-thick, foot-long metal cylinders.
They're often easy to find, if you're looking.
"I think I must have found it right after they put it on, because there was no grime on it at all," an animal-rights activist told Wired.com.
Wired got ahold of one, and dismantled it.
It's not the most interesting thing Wired has ever dismantled and posted.
Again from Wired is a list of the most common types of covert GPS, though it didn't mention the iPhone or iPad or (only a little more relevantly) de facto malware law enforcement might try to install on a smartphone, or device it might use to extract data from one.
PCWorld's iFixIt also disassembled one of the systems, concluding the device, which includes a battery pack , magnetic mount and gps transmitter/receiver unit , is simple because more complex devises would be too easy to find.
Street criminals and panicky victims of attempted traffic stop started complaining a decade ago that having a police helicopters overhead made it almost impossible to get away during a high speed chase.
Covert GPS tracking has the same drawback for skulkers but has the added advantage of violating the criminal's right not to be treated like a criminal before being proven to be one.
Like the iPhone's covert location tracking, Flash-cookie activity monitoring, almost everything Google does, and a dozen other efforts by IT vendors and their customers to get as much previously private data on end users as they can, GPS tracking is an invasion of privacy government or private agencies should have to ask permission to commit.
If you choose to be watched, fine. If not, you should be able to know when your iPhone isn't tracing your movements and the end result of an open policy of warrantless GPS tracking is to set a precedent that no matter what the drawbacks to either the individual or civil rights as a whole,

Campuses as Beacons of Change
University campuses are increasingly becoming beacons for public values, contrary to the many critics who seem to believe that the Dark Ages are upon us in higher education.
There are many different campuses that are leading society to a better place by setting an example themselves. In the past, they were on the forefront of battles over gender and racial equality. But the story doesn't end there. I see progress recently in four other important areas: gun control, sustainability, community outreach, and global health.
In the United States, the most recent instance is the campaign by many college and university presidents to take on the gun lobby and reassert the need for gun-free campuses—against considerable pressure from state legislatures in some cases. Five states now permit the concealed carry of firearms at public institutions. As other state legislators introduce bills to allow concealed firearms on campuses, higher-education leaders are stepping into the fight to prevent the proposals from becoming law.
Then there is the issue of sustainability. Many universities are in the forefront of the battle to produce sustainable campuses and they are often signatories to the 2012 United Nations Commitment to Sustainable Practices of Higher Education Institutions. Particularly noteworthy are the University of California at Los Angeles, which is able to reel off a list of wide-ranging sustainability initiatives, and the University of New South Wales, in Australia, which has similar efforts.
Again, there is the issue of community involvement. Every campus interacts in all kinds of ways with its community. That has been the case for a long time, but what has changed is the scale of the ambition. Take, for example, the recently opened Penn Park at the University of Pennsylvania: 24 acres of community facilities. Or take the way in which many universities are expanding their arts centers to serve larger communities.
Perhaps the best illustration of my idea is the issue of public health. Global public health has become a matter of pressing concern. There is still much to do. Although many infectious diseases are coming under control, noncommunicable diseases like cancer and heart disease are big and increasing killers and also have devastating effects upon dependents (medical treatment is one of the chief causes of impoverishment in many parts of the world, not to mention the loss of a breadwinner). Many of these noncommunicable diseases are the result of adverse lifestyles like obesity or alcohol abuse or smoking. It follows that, if lifestyle changes, so will the incidence of these diseases. Preventive medicine is the way forward.
By one estimate, there are going to be 262 million students in the world by 2025, of which eight million will be studying abroad. If just these students were to adopt healthier lifestyles, then a significant part of the battle could begin to be won, since students are significant influencers. Add in university staff, and here is a cohort of people who can really make a difference through example and by proselytizing. Of course, many students and staff already follow healthy lifestyles. But others do not. So changing their habits can make a real difference.
University leaders are beginning to realize this. It is not about promoting sports, although that is an important ingredient. It is about getting a modicum of physical exercise, about appropriate diet, about spotting early signs of disease. For example, nonsmoking campuses are spreading. An interest in sports is turning into a more general interest in exercise. Early testing for susceptibility to noncommunicable diseases is becoming a regular campus event, often helped by student-run charities.
One way of helping to foster these kinds of commitments is by signing up with U.N. Academic Impact, a recent effort aimed at aligning higher-education institutions with the United Nations to actively support universally accepted principles in areas like human rights, literacy, sustainability, and conflict resolution. Another is to align each higher-education effort with ventures like the Clinton Global Initiative University. There are numerous other means of demonstrating why campuses are more than campuses, but hopefully the point is made. When it comes to their role as public goods, campuses are, in many ways, becoming more rather than less focused on public benefit.Return to Top

My cat has swollen and hard areas under her teats. Should I be worried?
My 2 year old female Moxxi is letting the new kitten I adopted try to nurse. But... Moxxi is not pregnant, and has never been pregnant. She now has the swollen and hard lumps under her nipples now. Is this threatening to her health?

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
No, but the kitten is wearing her out and she may be frustrated from the experience. You should stop the behavior when you see it, and then distract her with a treat that is crunchy and soft like a Greenies SmartBite. Eventually they will both figure out that no milk is on the way, and you should encourage the kitten to eat with her. However, kittens need kitten-only food, so feed them both at the same time. Try MaxCat kitten in dry and wet, until the kitten is chomping solidly at 2x a day feedings and can receive the wet as a treat-only. Feeding only canned food (wet) can lead to peridontal disease rather quickly. ^_^

Bathroom lights not fully powered
I am working on a relatives bathroom and I am having some problems with the electrical. There is a 20 amp breaker in the breaker box, a 12-2 wire comes off to a combination switch in the bathroom. From there it goes to a recessed light with a 30 amp bulb, then to another recessed light with 30 amp bulb, then to a 30 amp light with a exhaust fan above the shower and then to two 60 amp light bulbs in the middle of the bathroom. The old switch that was in the bathroom worked fine, but I took it out and replaced it with a new combination switch and now the bulbs are all dim and the fan will start up and then shut off. The lights will brighten a little and then go dim and keep cycling like that over and over. I am not sure if it is just too much hooked up. Is there something that I can do without running all new wires? Thank you for your any help.
In the course of that note how the the room has (had) DIFFERENT wires (14ga) at that old switch and old light compared to what is at the receptacle.
Look for how the power for that old light comes to the fixture
and NOT the switch (as it will in 99,875% of old homes); and how the
"switch leg" is what you have at the switch itself.
Then look into how the exhaust fan/light was powered.
This is the likely gremlin depending on how competent the installer was.
The fan/light should ALSO be on the 15A (14g) lighting circuit but often isn't. It can be on the 20A (12ga) receptacle circuit (if wired correctly) but the two circuits should never be mixed as you have probably have with the "combination" added.
That should keep you busy for a while.
The power does come from the box straight to the switch, because I have tested it. The light fan combo is just fed off of the second recessed light. They are all just connected to the last switch and I was suspecting it is pulling too much power and is just killing the rest of the lights. Will I have to run another line from the breaker box to a switch and then to the fan light combo in the shower?
As you know you have made a wiring error at the new switch you installed, this is assuming you didn't do anything at the light fixtures.
BTW the bulbs are watts not amps ..... :)
Or was there a problem your trying to figure out ? You said everthing worked until you replaced the combination switch.
Is this a switch and receptacle combination or is the switch two switches ?
There is the wire coming from the breaker box and the wire going to the first recessed light. That is all that is in the switch box. On the switch I have both neutrals going to the silver screw, I put two pig tails on the black(hot)cable, one is going to the brass screw and the other is going to the black screw for the recepticle on the combo switch, and the black cable going to the light is on the other black screw. I did break off the tab, so that I could have constant power going to the outlet. I am not sure how the old switch was hooked up, but I did see he had a wire connecting the neutral and ground together, I am not sure why it was like that. I haven't messed with any of the light fixtures. Sorry I meant to say watts on the bulbs.
You didn't need to break the tab but since you did .. connect the two hot pigtails to the black screws and the switched hot to the light on the brass screw leave the whites but you should only have one white wire under the screw so a pigtail will work. See if this helps you ....
BTW you should consider not working on other peoples wiring relatives or not....
30 amps at 120v = 15600W.
Thats not a light, thats a light house !
I hope you mean 30 w bulb ?
A bathroom outlet without a GFI. Hmm.
14 Attachment(s)
This is a DIY site, but sometimes DIY'ers need to have basic knowledge to do tasks....
I should add that if you don't own the house, you should not be doing electrical work........but, that is your decision and call, your liability. I know I would wire my grandmothers house myself before I let her touch the wiring.
Electrical can cause devastation and fires......vs. plumbing that can can just make it a little wet........
Have fun with plumbing, try it yourself.......but electrical, you should be 100% sure what your doing before attempting......
I do suggest you.............
Sorry I did mean to say 30 watt light. It is actually my mother-in-laws house. I was just wanting to help her out, because the person who did it also connected a new front loading dryer with a 12/2 wire to a 20amp breaker. He connected the black and white to the hot and the ground to the neutral. The black wire melted at both ends. I know a couple electricians that work for the same company as I do, so I am going to give them a call to look at it. Thanks for the help.
Did you get the problem sorted ?
No I have tried it the ways that were suggested but the lights just stay really dim. I am going to just get an electrician. It just bugs me because I am sure it is something simple that I am missing that will end up costing me. Thanks for all the help.
What do you have in the way of test equipment ?
Do you have a non contact tester ?
Better still a volt meter ?
Have you tested the voltage on the hot line
at the switch ?
What does it read with the light on ?

I recently attended an informal industry meet-up themed 'Brands as Online Publishers'. The conversation was around some of the considerations for brands that want to enter into the fairly well-trodden space of content marketing.
From the outset, it's important that businesses decide what role they want the brand to play in the creation and delivery of content. Based on various factors – the structure and capability of the organisation, budget, time, objectives, audience, the nature of the content – brands need to decide whether they want to be content creators, commissioners or curators of entertaining and engaging content for their audience.
They have the option to work either independently or in association with a content producer or publisher, choosing to develop and create or co-create original content. They might alternatively choose to naturally integrate the brand into existing properties, partnering with a publisher or media partner. They need to consider who the retail or distribution partners for their content will be.
Brands need to acknowledge that all of these are significantly different approaches, with both practical and brand-related implications.
How To Deliver
Another important consideration will be whether to use a single media channel or multiple platforms to deliver content to audiences across a variety of channels: radio, magazines, events, gaming, video, music, mobile, books, social media, blogs, events and so on. What's most important, however, is that there is synergy and consistency in the message across paid, owned and earned media, that it supports the overall brand objectives, and that it is born from genuine consumer insight.
People are driven by passions – so brands as online publishers must develop and package their content around those passions. As with any form of brand communication, it's essential to research and understand your audience. In the world of brands as content platforms, it's also enormously important to show your audience a healthy level of respect. Trust is very easy to lose when brands get it wrong. They need to take very seriously their obligation to behave in an honest and open way in the realm of branded content.
Finally, it's important for brands to grasp the need to build an audience for their content, through focussed work and drivers. This can, to some degree at least and then be used to predict ROI.
In summary, the five key points to takeaway were:
- All brands are now content publishers.
- Brands are turning into media companies – for example, is Red Bull a product or media company?
- People care about their passions – it's essential to package content around these passions.
- Brands must decide whether they want to create, co-create, curate or integrate into content.
- Content should be liquid (shared) + linked (to the overall brand strategy).
One final note: 2012 sees communication industry stalwarts, the Cannes Lions, recognise the importance of branded content by the introduction of a new awards category for creativity in 'Branded Content and Entertainment'. We're waiting with bated breath to see who will shine in this year's judging.

text: CHICAGO, Dec. 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Tribune Company announced that it will successfully emerge from its Chapter 11 restructuring process tomorrow, December 31, 2012, and that distributions to creditors will be initiated at that time. The company's plan of reorganization was confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware in July, and the Federal Communications Commission granted Tribune the necessary transfer applications and waivers in November. "Tribune will emerge from the bankruptcy process as a multi-media company with a great mix of profitable assets, strong brands in major markets and a much-improved capital structure," said Eddy Hartenstein, Tribune's chief executive officer. "The company's greatest asset, however, is its employees who, individually and collectively, have remained focused on serving our viewers, readers, advertisers and communities with a single-minded sense of purpose and dedication. I want to thank all our employees for their talent and effort throughout this four-year process." In connection with emergence, Tribune will close on a new $1.1 billion senior secured term loan and a new $300 million asset based revolving credit facility. The term loan will be used to fund certain required payments under the plan of reorganization, and the revolving credit facility will be used to fund ongoing operations. In addition, Tribune's pre-petition credit facilities and outstanding notes and debentures will be cancelled and extinguished, and its pre-petition common stock will be cancelled. Upon completion of all distributions under the plan of reorganization, Tribune will have issued to former creditors a mix of approximately 100 million shares of new class A common stock and new class B common stock and new warrants to purchase shares of new class A or class B common stock. Former creditors entitled to receive a distribution of Tribune's new common stock or new warrants are encouraged to review the information and documents which will be posted to Tribune's website at www.tribune.com relating to such securities, including Tribune's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws, the warrant agreement setting forth the terms of the new warrants and other information, including FAQs with respect to distributions under the plan of reorganization. "In accordance with our restructuring plan, Tribune's subsidiary creditors and vendors will be receiving payment in full—100% recovery of what they are owed," said Hartenstein. "These long-term relationships are very important to the company and we are pleased to be successfully resolving these obligations."

CHESTER – Departing from an historical strategy of purchasing computers outright, the Chester school board has authorized administration to begin a leasing program instead.
At its June 5 meeting, the school board authorized the lease of 82 computers at a price of a little over $28,000 per year for three years. The decision comes after a discussion at the previous monthly meeting about how to move forward with technology purchases at the school.
As previously reported by the Tri-Town Times, principal Leslie Leahy and superintendent Jim Gaylord had proposed using surplus funds from the current year to purchase three classroom laptop computer carts, but school board members questioned the wisdom of continually buying computers, something members said would keep the school playing catch-up and would create a replacement cost bubble in the future.
Member Mike Romick was vocal about leasing instead of buying. Benefits of the leasing program lauded by members and administration were the ability to keep budgeting level from year to year while keeping technology up to date, and the fact that maintenance on the machines would be handled by the leasing company.
Leahy, together with the school's information technology (IT) specialist, Ryan Frazier, presented bids for leasing for multiple companies and brands. A long discussion about which computers to move forward with and how many should be purchased took place.
The funding for the computers will come out of next year's technology budget, not from surplus.

It's June 1, and the Nats are 26-26. After a major beat-down of the Astros on Memorial Day, 14-4, they are 3.5 games behind division-leading Atlanta in the NL East.
(Of course, anti-Nats could point out that they are trailing that division, but that's just because Washington comes after Florida in alphabetical order.)
The NL East is arguably the strongest division on baseball, with all teams at .500 or better and the last-place teams in very easy reach of the lead with just a simple combination of someone heating up and someone else cooling off.
So life is good in Nats Town–even without Pudge Rodriguez, Scott Olsen, and not even having seen Chien-Ming Wang yet. (What's up with him anyway?)
And Strasmas is just a week away. Strasburg debuts on June 8, and as it happens, I have tickets for that day. Just by accident, not by plan.

Good evening, Father Gunsmith.. this is my first confession....
I have made many many divots on both hemispheres of my own posterior section with my own foot, along with a few well-placed strikes on the Prime Meridian thereof.
I do this because over the last few decades I've owned a great many interesting firearms...learned as much as possible about them....and then went and sold them or traded away for newer guns. Now, I *never* lost money AT THAT TIME.... but I highly regret not keeping them!
Also, I freely confess that I sporterized a couple military rifles. They were NOT, say, all-matching K98's or Enfields or 1903's.... but that only lessens the consequences of those particular sins. It doesn't expunge them.
I had a Colt Delta Elite H-Bar with case. Sold it!
I had the Auto-Ordnance Thompson with 50rd drum and a real guitar case for it. SOLD IT!
I had two fixed-stock and one underfolder AK. Traded 'em off.....within a couple months the Import Ban went into affect. (I loved those Chinese AKs!
I had a WW2 1911, Colt, that had bloodstains. Traded it!
I had an opportunity to buy a Class III M2 Carbine for $800. Missed it!
In other news, I had an opportunity to buy an M3 Halftrack, everything was there, and operated flawlessly, but it just needed painting. Even had a spare track set. I killed too much time and that deal got away, and this was just a couple months before the Blizzard of '93!
Is there any way I can get this stuff forgiven or mind-melded out or something????
Maybe a Men-In-Black flashy-thing application???

Ah yes all of us have made similar mistakes at one time or another, took original sights off a 1903 Springfield and replaced them with target sights, big difference in price compared to an original unaltered 1903.

For that reason alone I have a large, self-inflicted bruise on my right buttock.
The size of said bruise varies over time, sometimes shrinking almost to nothingness.... and then something will remind me and I'll give it a booster shot or three.
I was 22 and ignorant of the ways of the Force, but By Browning I've been cultured since :)
I did love that SP1 though, but it had a problem I couldn't fix then and unfortunately it had to go too.
I *did* do two things correctly though.
1. I special-ordered a Polytech Legend AK - Serial number P47-000xx.... I KEPT that baby.
2. I married an awesome woman. Mrs Cat saw how I was pining over certain gone firearms. Our second Christmas together, she bought me a PRISTINE Enfield #4 Mk1, hugged me, and said "Dave, we're gonna rebuild your collection."
Now, I'd never be able to find that WW2 1911, but I do have a fine 1911 that more than fills that 1911-shaped hole in my heart....
I have an AR-15 that is everything I ever wanted in an AR and MORE - because I had had 15 years of figuring out exactly how I wanted it, and so I built it like I wanted....
She found me an Underfolder AK that I like way more than the Chinese ones I had, because it's much closer to AKM specs and that's what I wanted all along...instead of the chinese Hybrids that were available.
She bought me a peachy K98 - all numbers match, bluing's fine and it has a pretty laminated stock.
I used to have one of those Korean refurb/reimport Garands... it worked okay but the metal was pitted and nasty and that's how they spray-painted it. SOOO - last year she finds me a GREAT 1942 Springfield. Refurbed in '65 with new ('64) barrel and rear sight, parkerizing's fine, and looks like it was put into storage before it arrived at its FINAL home :)
I used to smoke. I also used to have a Luger. It got sold too. My wife, who cares about how long I live, got me to quit smoking. My last cig was smoked on the bow of USS North Carolina - BB55.... and after one year, she bought me another Luger (Black Widow LOL) on the condition of if I ever smoked again, that Luger was going to be a suppository.
For the last couple weeks I had been gazing at a 1937 Mosin refurb. She took time off work to get it for me and surprise me with it!!!
She's also financed a number of carbine and defensive handgun classes, is encouraging me to do what I need to to be a bona-fide instructor!
That woman is a PEACH!
Friends Don't Let Friends Buy Century!
NO!!! Now suffer quietly with the rest of us that the years have made wiser...but no less regretted.

Nov. 19, 2012
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. ---- The UAB baseball program recently announced the signing of infielder Tim Anderson to a National Letter of Intent to compete for the Blazers in 2014.
Anderson, a native of Tuscaloosa, Ala., is currently enrolled at East Central CC (Mississippi) and will transfer after the 2012-13 academic year. He played at Hillcrest High School and following graduation, enrolled in junior college.
Head coach Brian Shoop feels that Anderson's speed is a difference maker and will follow the footsteps of past speedy Blazers on the base paths in Jamal Austin (2008-10) and Brint Hardy (2007-09). Austin finished his career 74-for-88 on stolen base attempts, while Hardy led the nation in swipes during the 2009 regular season with 46 and was only caught three times.
"Tim is an incredible sign for our program," head coach Brian Shoop said. "First off he is a great person along with being what we believe is one of the better players from the state of Alabama. His plus running speed will fit perfectly into how we like to play, but Tim is more than a speed guy. He has the ability to hit in the middle of our lineup as well."
Anderson showcased his speed at East Central CC, going a perfect 30-for-30 on the base paths last spring. His stolen base total ranked in the top-15 amongst junior college players in the country.
In addition, Anderson hit .360 and launched four homers and knocked in 37 runs in 45 games as an ECCC Warrior.
This past summer, Anderson played for the Dodge City Athletics in the Jayhawk League where his rated the No. 2 prospect in the conference by Baseball American and Perfect Game.
As a member of the Athletics, Anderson hit .352, connecting for eight homers, 14 doubles, knocked in 39 runs and was 32-for-39 on stolen bases en route to earning first team all-league accolades.
Anderson also earned first-team all-state honors at Hillcrest HS and was named a first-team all-state and all-region pick while at ECCC.
"Tim is well schooled having played for Todd Agee at Tuscaloosa Hillcrest High School and has continued to develop his baseball skills under Neil Holliman who has don a remarkable job at East Central Community College in Decatur, Miss.," Shoop said.

Garage Wall Board
I got samples of this new interior exterior wall board material that looks excellent. It sells direct to consumers by full pallets delivered to anywhere in North America when there are no stocking retailers in an area. I want to use it to do my garage interior using a brad nail gun. Has anyone used it?
Joe J.
How much?
...using a brad nail gun?
Can you do that w/drywall?
Its about twice the cost of drywall to buy (comparing 5/8" vs 3/8"). But with the labour savings from being much easier to install with a nail gun, avoiding taping, corner bead and sanding, it should be a cheaper, faster and cleaner way to do wall boarding.
I tried my nail gun on samples and they hold much better than in particleboard. You can pry the board off the studs with a crow bar but the nails stay in the board not in the studs. The brad nails hold stronger in the magnesiacore than they do in to the wood studs you're nailing it to.
When I try that with particleboard the nails get pulled through the particleboard and stay in the wood studs instead.
Also there is no nail hole to fill afterwards. Only a small dint and slit that painters putty can fill as you do the primer. But I like the look of it and would leave it unpainted and not bother filling the nail holes. They blend in to the surface patern of the boards.
You came on this forum for the sole reason.....to speak about this product that you haven't actuallu used anywhere.....but, claim that you tried nailing a sample.....????
That's alot of effort to put into a product that you 'discovered', but have not actually ever installed anywhere .......:whistling2:
BTW- Anyone like processed meat?
I am looking to see if anyone else has gotten samples and used the product. It look's like great stuff and much better quality wallboard than drywall. Cost more than drywall but so does everything else. If it saves time and labour and gets a better quality job done that lasts longer, its worth looking into.
Yes I got sample 9" x 12" that are 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" and 5/8". I also got a small corner piece that is made up with brad nails that is filled without any taping or corner bead. I tried nailed the samples on studs with my own brad nail gun. I took a crow bar and pried the samples off the studs. The nails stay in the magnesiacore. The nails did not pull through the board (like they do with particleboard paneling). The nails pull out of the wood studs and stay in the board. The board was not damaged by prying them off with a crowbar and I could reuse them by sniping off the nails.

Ordnance Survey has made its Web 2.0 platform OS OpenSpace available to all developers, following a successful closed launch last December.
OS OpenSpace is a free service that allows users to build mash-ups of Ordnance Survey mapping in scales ranging from the whole of Great Britain down to street level.
94.4% of cloud apps are not secure enough for enterprises
Access this e-guide with 6 key articles on cloud security and learn how to protect your organisation and its data on the cloud.
By submitting your personal information, you agree that TechTarget and its partners may contact you regarding relevant content, products and special offers.
You also agree that your personal information may be transferred and processed in the United States, and that you have read and agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.
The OS OpenSpace application programming interface (API) had been undergoing testing by a dedicated set of developers since a "closed alpha" launch on 14 December.
Since then, 12 developers have put data from OS OpenSpace on the internet. The service is now available to anyone wanting to develop experimental applications on the web using Ordnance Survey mapping.
The government minister responsible for Ordnance Survey, Iain Wright, said, "In launching OS OpenSpace, Ordnance Survey is taking a lead in providing greater access to public information. The launch will allow others to innovate using geographic information, with confidence in the national consistency and currency of the data they use."
Anyone who registers at the OS OpenSpace website can access as many as 30,000 "tiles" or extracts of data and perform as many as 1,000 place-name look-ups a day.
Users can add markers, lines and polygons on top of Ordnance Survey mapping, search for place names with a gazetteer and display other location data from elsewhere on the web.
The platform is a JavaScript API that uses "slippy map" technology, so users can grab and move images in different directions. As well as the API itself, OS OpenSpace will include a community website so developers can discuss, review and collaborate on projects.
Enjoy the benefits of CW+ membership, learn more and join.

America's Godly Heritage - DVD
Out of Print:
This has been discontinued or is no longer available for purchase.
An excellent primer for those who want to know more about what was intended for America by the Founders.
America's Godly Heritage clearly sets forth the beliefs of many of the famous Founding Fathers concerning the proper role of Christian principles in education, in government, and in the public affairs of the nation. The beliefs of Founders like George Washington, John Adams, John Jay, Thomas Jefferson, James Wilson, George Mason, John Quincy Adams, and many others are clearly presented.
America's Godly Heritage DVD Details:
America's Godly Heritage - DVD – Rebecca W, 08/29/2011
Great resource for information HOWEVER I hope that if this film is updated, the speaker will slow down and give more information about who the individuals he was talking about are. My daughters and I watched fifteen minutes of this and I had to stop it because they just were in over their heads. We really enjoyed seeing the original text books (primers) of our country. I highly recommend this as a basis for personal or scholastic research on the subject, but be prepared to pause often to take notes. He talks very quickly and graphics don't stay on screen very long!
America's Godly Heritage - DVD – Joseph Grady I, 03/19/2009
This is an excellent DVD. It was extremely well researched and informative. I think that anyone with an interest in American history will find this fascinating. I had thought that I was very informed about American history, but I sure never read about this at Indiana University.
America's Godly Heritage - DVD – Lance G, 08/16/2008
There is a ton of info on this DVD. I really enjoyed it except for one thing, the narrator speaks way too fast and it is hard for a slow person like myself to grasp everything...
America's Godly Heritage - DVD – David S, 06/03/2008
Great information on here ! Wallbuilders now has a 12 disc set available. I didn't see it on this site to rent, so I may have to buy it :(
America's Godly Heritage - DVD – Matthew C, 04/15/2008
This was an excellent presentation, though it was made in either the late 80's or early 90's. I am hoping that they will make an updated version of this. Despite its oldness, it is still worth watching especially if you are not aware of the basics of the godly heritage of America. This would not hold the attention of children but it will hold your attention.
America's Godly Heritage - DVD – Vic Z, 02/07/2008
Absolutely phenomonal lecture. Very packed with information. You have to listen carefully to catch it all--we played it several times. The stats towards the end of the film are eye-opening. The stats are an at-a-glance revelation of the deterioration of our culture and its immediate parallel to the ending of prayer in school. The treachory of those Supreme Court Justices is mind boggling as they totally ignored all precendents of prior Supreme Court rulings of our nation.
America's Godly Heritage - DVD – Jackie R, 11/22/2006
Very much a talking head documentary, but also extremely interesting! My kids found it a little dry but it was so full of information!

The history of exploration in the Northwest Passage comes to life in Baffin Bay, named for the English seafarer William Baffin, who came here in the 16th century on the search for a possible passage. Once you have visited Pond Inlet on Baffin Island and gotten to know a small, hidden Inuit village, the HANSEATIC will travel to the Lancaster Sound. The excitement will grow as your own chapter in the history of Northwest Passage exploration approaches.

Thread crochet "wheels" pattern I've started back working on in these times of stress. I hope to make a table runner.
Also, I need advice. Can any crocheter here help me with the following:
1) Super easy child's hat pattern using super bulky yarn?
2) Either a pattern or ideas for crocheting a child-sized scarf using the same yarn?
I have 4 balls of Lion Brand Landscapes....yarn is very chunky. I kind of wanted to make something quickly enough to finish by Christmas.
There's a beginner pattern on the wrapper for a knit scarf but I'm not sure I have the right needles and not willing to buy any right now. Many thanks to whoever can help me out.

- - Eating too Fast? (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/feeding-our-puppy/442377-eating-too-fast.html)
Eating too Fast?
is it harmful for a dog to eat too fast?
our 4 month old pup Rambo eats twice as fast as our 1 1/2 year old Julie. twice as fast as she did when she was 4 months. he doesn't vomit. vet says his weight gain is normal. he goes to his 3rd visit in 2 weeks so hopefully vet says the same thing. Julie is tiny at 60lbs but vet says she's a healthy weight for her height, even more so than the majority of the dogs he sees. he's already 40lbs. his arms are twice as thick as hers.
when he finishes his bowl we (wife or i depending on who's feeding) have to guard her bowl while she finishes or he will stick his face in her bowl and eat the 2nd half of her food and she'll let him. neither have food aggression and both automatically down stay and look at us 'till we say OK before rushing to their bowls.
so i'm not worried about aggression, weight, getting sick, knocking the bowl out of my hand. just the speed at which he eats. it blows my mind how fast he eats. is there anything wrong here?
Rambo the one closer to the camera.
Worms? Is he hungry all the time? Vet bill clear ?
There are plenty of ways to slow him down. A fist size rock in the bowl helped my guy...
I have a competition eater that's now 5. He's been that way all his life. We have tried special bowls, softball size aluminum ball in the bowl, everything. We still feed him twice a day so he's not getting so much at once, and use a muffin pan with 6 holes. He still eats like it's his last meal but at least it's a little bit slower.
if i knew how he would eat before we got him we could have named him kobayashi or joey chestnut.
I know how you feel...
You are restricting water and exercise before and after meals, right?
I use water (soak) in the food to slow mine down and other reasons. There are also
"brake fast" feeders, muffin tins like above, scattering the food, food toys.
Most of mine ate like that--if it is so fast they choke I step in and do things to slow it down. Eating fast, they can swallow a lot of air which can lead to bloat.
thanks for the tips. i'm not concerned about having to guard one's bowl from the other 'cause one eats too fast. he doesn't choke so at least there is no immediate health risk. also glad to her he isn't the only one that eats like a monster.
You're doing what you can do. I've tried everything I can think of too!

I made lot's of good experiences through HospitalityClub. Hospitality really is one of the most importent things for the members there and I really was astonished when I've been a guest for the first time.
My HC-Username: danimue
I abanndonned HC because of some technical problems it experienced about 3 years ago. Personally I always prefered HC thanks to his sober interface. Already back then I thought CS was too much of a social network. Recent developpement makes me go back to HospitalityClub. People who contact we on my HC profile will be hosted preferedly.

Teach, Learn, Share
I love talking about languages, and having learned french quite intensely the last two years I found my self correcting other french learners quite often.
Same is valid for german, of course.
Otherwise, I'd call myself not necessarily a good, but in any case a pationated cook, and it's a pleasure to show you some good traditonal Bavarian meals or bakery.

text: Each year, more than two dozen career and technical education schools from several states come together for a conference to make sure their students are receiving the most up-to-date education in their technical fields. The Maine Administrators of Career and Technical Education, along with the United Technologies Center in Bangor, played host to the conference this year. This year, the state of Maine was chosen to host the region one conference for the national Administrators of Career Technical Education. Region one is made up of 15 states from as far west as Michigan and as far south as Delaware. The three basic themes for the conference are green energies, composites and technologies, all of which are touched upon by the school's students. One of the speakers at the conference was Dr. Habib Dagher, the Director of the Advanced Composites Center at the University of Maine…he talked about energy potential in Maine.

I sent the initial email off 2 weeks ago, when I found this thread. Very useful by the way!
They (BMWNA) contacted me by phone Monday of this week, dropped the car off this morning, it's already done. Pick it up tonight.
BMWNA picked up the parts, I pay for labor only. They estimated 1/2 to a full hour.
I'm very happy with the way they handled it. This is/was the only flaw in my car and was just one of those things that picked away at me every time I looked down at the instrument cluster.
The guy that called me from BMWNA said that my car as a 2000, with 41K miles, shouldn't have had this issue and that's why they would fix it. Not sure if they handle it differently depending on mileage.

UPDATE: Beaver Creek Fire Now 95% Contained
EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. - Storms Saturday night helped die down the Beaver Creek fire. U.S. Forest Service officials said the fire burning on Green Mountain iis now 95 percent contained.
The fire has burned 100 acres since it began Friday afternoon in northern El Paso County near Baptist Road.
Officials said 144 were working to get the fire out Sunday night.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
Friday afternoon the fire came within a quarter mile of some homes.
Green Mountain Ranch Estate residents said they were worried about things getting out of control due to a lack of water to fight the fire.
"It's always in the back of your mind if you have a fire they have to truck water in and it's kind of dangerous because we only have wells," said Patricia Olson, who noticed flames around 2:30 pm Friday.
"When I came out it had just burst into flames at the top [of the mountain] and it had not gone that way yet," said Olson. "We didn't have that much wind [now] if did we'd have been in trouble."
Fire crews did an effective job of playing defense, and the situation never got bad enough to order evacuations.
Firefighters have been literally fighting an uphill battle. One firefighter said footing was a big concern. He said making fast runs uphill can be tricky.
Homeowners acknowledged that firefighters are in a tough spot trying to put out flames on a such a steep slope.
"If you look at the side of the mountain it's a 50 degree angle straight up," said Dan Meylan. "I've done a couple of climbs. They were as tough as any climb in Colorado."

Teenagers Hope to Curb Dating Violence
Published February 10th, 2011
Loading Video...
Emotions are at their height when it comes to relationships. For most, the desired outcome is a lifelong connection but for some the outcome is violent. A group of Gainesville teenagers is working to change that with one lesson at a time. They say communication and understanding is key to a healthy relationship which they hope to teach to younger children.
"That's the most exciting part of the program the kids and the feedback that they give to us and letting us know how we are helping them," said mentor Richard Brown.

FLORENCE, S.C. – Paintings by Wanda Steppe and works in glass by Nikki Barnes will be on display at Francis Marion University as part of FMU's Art Gallery Series, Jan. 7 through Feb. 27.
The exhibits will be on display in the Hyman Fine Arts Center gallery on the FMU campus. The exhibits are open to the public, free of charge, and may be viewed between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Steppe's exhibit is titled "Dark Nights of the Soul." "'Dark Nights of the Soul' is a series of paintings that express my feelings of fear and hope that encompass the healing process," Steppe said. "After a devastating diagnosis and intense recovery period, I began to create work that expressed rather than repressed the fear. I found that this had a very healing effect."
Barnes' exhibit is titled "Secret Images." "Wanting to find out how far a material can be pushed, and how light and color can be formed to express not only a visual, but visceral response, has been my goal since I started working in glass seriously five years ago," Barnes said. "Every day in the studio is fraught with fear and exhilaration as I continue to try to portray the universe and life at both the cosmic and the infinitesimal levels."
