Can sometimes be so damn erotic.
And just what the doctor ordered.
Can sometimes be so damn erotic.
And just what the doctor ordered.
When there are, I feel claustrophobic, and I have to get out.
I'm well aware that we are already five days into 2016, but when have you known me to do anything like this on time?
2015 Events
Goals for 2016
Earlier this week, I had to tell Ash that her aunt and uncle were killed. She took it pretty hard; harder than I expected actually. All I could do was hold her and let her cry it out. The Ex and I both knew I was better equipped to deliver the bad news to her, but if I never have to do that again, it will be too soon
The next couple of days were filled with discussions about how all the different emotions she was feeling were totally normal, but that life still goes on, whether we like it or not. And that her aunt and uncle wouldn't want her to be completely consumed by sadness, but would want her to focus on the good memories she had of them and keep them alive in her heart.
We are still waiting for the bodies to be brought back the US and find out when the memorial service will be held. There will be no true closure for anyone until that happens.
The driver of the SUV was injured in the accident, but he survived. Just days after the accident, he was charged with multiple counts of careless driving and was levied with a $4500 fine, which must be paid before he can leave New Zealand. I imagine the fine is really nothing compared to the constant reminder that his killed his wife and two friends. That is punishment enough to me.
Knowing The Ex as I do, though, I texted that he needs to forgive the driver. I doubt he will.
I'm feeling very crafty lately, for some reason. I have TONS of ideas floating around in my head, some of which I've researched and definitely want to do. The transition of those ideas to completed projects, however, still remains elusive. Notice I said completed projects. My latest start showed up on Instagram yesterday, and as of bedtime last night, was coming along nicely. I wish I could say that actually meant something. For now, I will just say yesterday was a good craft day.
A change is coming. One that I'm still struggling with. A LOT. I don't know if I'm ready to say it out loud just yet, at least not with any real conviction. I know that as soon as I do say it out loud, I will be thrown into the stocks and pelted with rotten vegetables until the Crown Prince comes to announce that I am descendant of an ancient royal line and therefore above this kind of treatment. Sheesh, my mind is such a volatile place.
My new camera has been an absolute BLAST. I can't believe just how quiet it is. AND FAST OMG. I may actually be able to take fewer shots of an image to make sure I get a good one. Then again, I may just keep shooting. And shooting. And shooting. I am hoping for really good weather this weekend, so I can try to get the shot(s) of Tim and me that I want. It's time to change Tim's FB cover photo, so his friends and family will stop thinking his BFF is his GF. [sigh] Sometimes I am just an overly awesome photog.
Will Social Media and I ever be able to repair our relationship? I really don't know. For now, I've been hiding over in the twitter corner, because I think I seem so much less pathetic at 140 characters or less. [shrugs]
Motivation. I has none. Is it 5 yet?
Not funny, ha-HA. Funny strange, if anything.
Acct Info Sys prof sent an email today saying that she added 10 points to our chapter 2 test scores because we only had 60 minutes to take the test, instead of the 90 minutes we were supposed to have. Which does me no good, because I aced the test.
She then went on to say that the averages scores on the tests for chapters 1 and 2 were 80.5% and 73.5%, respectively. A similar email went out today from my Int Acct prof saying that the average test score on the chapter 1 test was 85%.
These classes are major course REQUIREMENTS, and the average test scores so far are a B, a B-, and a C-? That's scary.
And it makes me wonder, what is so different about me? I honestly don't know. I am just doing my best. Isn't that what everyone does?
Apparently not.
I don't know if I mentioned this before, but two of my classes this semester are retakes, Intro to Photo and Acct Info Sys. I'm retaking those classes for two reasons: 1) to remove the "drop" from the calculation and get my GPA up from a 2.79 and 2) to actually finish those classes. Those E's on my transcript haunt me. Every. Day. To go from A's and B's to basically nothing? It's killing me. I have to fix it. After this semester, I only have one more retake left, Object Oriented Programming II (basically Java II).
Some might think it's weird for me to be taking an introduction to photography class. It's really not, though. Two years ago when I was enrolled in the same class, I was just starting out with my business. I was still shooting in Auto. I was still shooting JPG images. I was enrolled in that class long enough to have two assignments graded, before I dropped, and in those two assignments, I learned A TON. I haven't shot in any mode BUT Manual ever since. Shortly after that, I realized the benefits of shooting RAW, and have never looked back. (Side note: I've had to change back to JPG for this class, which I need to remember before I shoot my next session.)
The professor for this photo class is even better than the professor I had two years ago, and I thought he was pretty damn good. Tri has related really well with everyone in the class. This is a gen ed class, but I can tell that he really wants us to learn. He doesn't talk down to anyone when he answers questions and he explains the terminology in layman's terms. Plus, he clearly knows his shit. And when he not only described his wife as a "nerd," but showed pride in his wife's geek status, he moved up even farther on my scale.
We turned in our first assignment yesterday. It was the exact same assignment I completed two years ago, and it dealt with understanding how your camera worked. We did some images to understand aperture, some for shutter speed, some for camera shake, some panning (THOSE. ARE. HARD.), and some for color shifts from indoor lighting. I was interested to see the difference between the two sets of images, although I still haven't compared them side-by-side yet. I did notice that, while I certainly don't know everything about it, I am MUCH more familiar with my camera than I was back then. I was even able to help some of my fellow students figure out theirs. But at the same time, I learned something new. Good times.
When I got my assignment together, I felt pretty good about it. But then the thing happened that usually does with me, I started to panic. The images weren't good enough, not by a long shot. In my mind, I fully expected Tri to give them back to me and say, "Not even close, moron. Try again." Yes, I do know he would never actually say something like that, but at the time, my mind was going into negative overdrive. Logic was completely ignored.
Once everyone uploaded their images, Tri chose some (names redacted, of course) to give us a better understanding of what he's looking for when grading. His comments were very constructive, not hurtful at all, and yet I still sat in the back repeating the same phrase over and over in my mind. "Please don't pick mine. Please don't pick mine. Please don't pick mine. PLEASE DON'T PICK MINE."
He picked mine.
My first thought was, "Crap." Then as he went through them, I realized he wasn't tearing them to shreds. Then I looked more closely at the images on the screen. The exposure looked pretty damn close in most of the images. Since we were working on equivalent exposure, I started to relax about how well I completed the assignment. Tri laughed at the images of Ash doing jumping jacks (shutter speed images to show blur/freeze action), commenting on the things we ask our kids to do to get shots. A fellow student also told me they were good pictures. It will be interesting to see what my grade is on the assignment. Then I will have to dig out the old one and compare.
Next assignment due is on depth of field. Not as many technical components this time. Not as many images required either. Now I get to play.
I haven't written here in a while. Quite a while, in fact. My many unfinished posts didn't show any real signs of finishing, so here they all are in one big recap.
Tomorrow (Thursday) is a milestone. And a pretty big one too. I still can't believe it's here. Kind of crazy, huh? And yes, I'm being vague on purpose. But don't worry, you'll find out soon enough. You only have to wait a few more hours. Think of how long I'VE been waiting!
It's been over a month, and I still haven't found my go-to style for this haircut yet. That is why you haven't seen many pics of it. Well, that's one reason why anyway. An A-line bob should be easy to style, right? I guess it is easy to style, but none of the ones I've tried so far scream, "YES, YES, YES!" In fact, most of them scream, "MILE-HIGH FOREHEAD!" I have figured out that my conservative choices for an easier transition from long to short is just not cutting it (pun very much intended). My next appointment will be me telling my stylist, "Stack that shit! STACK IT! AH! AH! AHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Speaking of my hair, we've reached the start of the "visible root" phase of this latest color. Which means in about a week or so, I will post a pic holding it out, threatening to chop it all off and go for a brunette Susan Powter look. If you're old enough to know who she is, say it with me… "Stop the Insanity!" If not, Google people. If it's not your best friend yet, pfft!
So, mah boys. Pretty good showing in the first (season) game under new management, right? Well, I was pretty happy with it. And at least I got to watch most of the second half (gawd damned greedy college and their stinkin LHN). Unfortunately, the celebration was short-lived, though, because there is no rest for the wicked. Especially when next Saturday's game is against BYU. And your QB is out for concussion symptoms. And two of your offensive tackles are suspended for violation of team rules. What. The. Fuck. We are so screwed.
Oh, and by the way? I'm a Bruin again. I know that you know that I'm back in school this semester. And you know that I know that you know I'm back in school. But did you know that SLCC's mascot is a BEAR? Well now you know. Kind of fitting when you think about it actually. Especially during a certain time of the month.
School is going pretty well, even though it's only been a couple of weeks. I've gotten ahead in both of my accounting courses, so that I make sure to not get behind. What I mean by that is I have completed all homework due through this Sunday in those two classes. It was done over last weekend. But that's not enough. After two years of homework every weekend, I want more of them freed up. I will pretty much have photography homework every weekend during this semester, which is fine. I just want to stay way in the black on my accounting homework. I'm figuring out if I can work ahead even further. Just not sure yet if it will be possible.
We've completed step one of Move 2014. One notice to vacate has been submitted; the other one will go in at the end of this month. We know the areas where we want to live, or I should say the areas we need to live to keep the kids' transition to a minimum. Now it's time to start looking. By the end of October, we will all be in one place together, as a family. We're really here. Crap. Am I ready for this?
A friend of mine is going through a really rough patch right now, and is faced with making a very hard decision. I want so much to be able to hug her and tell her it will be ok. I hate the fact that she and I live so far away from each other. I will be there for her in anyway I can, though, just like she was for me when I went through it.
Lacy panties are totally the bomb. Enough said.
I keep dozing off while writing this, which probably means I should try and get some sleep. I keep reading what I've written so far, to make sure it sounds at least semi-coherent, and it does. I just wish it sounded as funny as it did in my head earlier today. Oh well.
P.S. I made pulled pork over the weekend. It was fantastic!
P.P.S. I also made coleslaw from scratch. Look at me, all Susie Homemaker and shit!
I'm home after being gone for days. Not because I want to be, but because I need to be. That said, I have hated every minute since I stepped through my door tonight. It's horribly quiet in here, even with everything going on around me right now.
It's been a week since we had Ash hospitalized. Unfortunately, she is still there, and we don't know for sure when she will be discharged. There was talk of possibly letting her out tomorrow, but her doctor let that cat out of the bag, against my wishes, which got in the way of the progress she was making. However, I have a feeling that the hospital is going to play the insurance card here sometime soon and she will come home.
A lot has happened this past week: I managed to piss Ash off during my first visit with her; I have spoken with her doctor and therapist quite a few different times; we have had two family therapy sessions; Ash, on her own, asked Tim to visit her up at the hospital; and Tim and The Ex physically met for the first time. So far, no one has died.
We all, the three "parents" in her life and her treatment team at the hospital, seem to be in agreement that the "voices" Ash claims to be hearing are not actually psychotic events, but more of the internal dialogue of thoughts in her head. We are all on the same page about not prescribing her any meds. We also all agree that she needs to focus on her coping skills, including getting better at identifying when she actually needs to use them.
I have been going through a number of emotions this week, as you can imagine. The most dominant ones right now are anger and fear. I am angry that she is still in the hospital. I am angry because I sometimes think she doesn't really want to come home and gets in the way of her own progress. And I am afraid of what will happen once she actually does come home.
I am not sleeping well, no matter where I am. Tim mentioned this morning that the tension is practically radiating off me at night. He has been worried about me, while also dealing with his own feelings for Ash. I hate that I have added more stress to him when he is already dealing with so much. For that reason, along with others, I left him a few hours ago to come home, even though I really didn't want to.
Things still need to be done, though. So I keep going, keep moving. I keep doing those inane things I must do: go to work, do laundry, keep my car running.
And one moment I'm fine, but the next I'm not. It's a shitty way to be, let me tell you. I don't wish it on anyone.

Belize fees list...
There has been a bit of chatting about the fees in Belize lately (especially here in the Rio Dulce, Guatemala). Here is a list of the fees in various areas:
Sapodilla Cayes ..$20 Blz per day or $50 Blz per week
Port Honduras .$10 Blz per day or $30 Blz per week
Gladden Spit ...$20 Blz per day or $50 Blz per week
($50 Blz per day at the whale shark zone)
Laughing Bird $20 Blz per day
Glovers Reef ..$10 Blz per day or $30 Blz per week
Caye Caulker .$10 Blz per day or $30 Blz per week
Hol Chan $20 Blz per day
Bacalar Chico .$10 Blz per day or $30 Blz per week
Blue Hole ...$60 Blz per day
The above are the government approved entrance fees. The persons collecting the fees are reserve rangers. You can ask for an identification but the rangers are now using a fisheries uniform with the government of Belize logo on the shirt pocket. Visitors are urged to obtain a ticket. The ticket is a receipt. However, when any company buys tickets in bulks they get another official receipt for accounting purposes of the purchasing organization.
The fees collected will be used directly for the management of the protected areas.
Also note that these fees are Per Person, not per vessel.
This is for those planning on going there and not getting blind-sided by unexpected (or planned for) costs.
Belize is beautiful and has great snorkeling and diving. It shouldn''t be passed up, but have this knowledge when choosing which are you wish to visit.
Fair winds,

I have two questions. If I get these right, I think I know how to do the rest.
1. "George's father feels happy." Is "feels" a linking verb or an action verb? It seems like it is a linking verb.
2. "People pay ten times as much for sugar." Is the verb "pay" singular?
# 1. You're right -- "feels" is a linking verb.
# 2. No -- "pay" is plural.
Think of it this way --
He pays a lot for his shoes. (Singular)
They pay a lot for their shoes. (Plural)
So if the subject is plural, the verb is plural? And if the subject is singular, the verb is singular?
I am still struggling with this singular/plural verb assignment. I would like to tell you the directions on the sheet, type the sentences, and tell you what my brain is thinking.
Add s or es to most present-tense verbs when the subject is he, she, it, or a singular noun. Write the present tense verb in each sentence. Then write whether the verb is singular or plural.
Everything costs more nowadays.
My brain: "Everything" means more than one, so the verb "costs" is plural.
People pay ten times as much for sugar.
My brain: "People" means more than one, so pay is a plural verb. But that kind of confuses me because the previous sentence had a verb that ended in "s" and pay doesn't end in s. Does ending in s have anything to do with whether or not a verb is singular or plural?
They ride in cars to go to the next town.
My brain: They means more than one, so ride is a plural verb.
A trip by car takes only a few minutes.
My brain: It is only one trip so the verb is singular even though it ends in s.
Ahhh. I don't know why this is so difficult.
Your thinking on these sentences is excellent. Only singular verbs end in "s." Try using "he" or "they" as subjects when you get confused.
The problem is that a few of our pronouns are confusing as to whether they are singular or plural.
"Everything" is considered singular. So the plural verb "costs" is correct.
This site may help you.
To answer you last question, Lisa, yes.

Abily, who is currently on loan to Paris St. Germain, had eight goals in 2009 for the Sol, tying her for second place with Abby Wambach behind Sol teammate Marta.
"She has tremendous instinct on the field, her vision and decision making skills are right on point," FC Gold Pride coach Albertin Montoya said of Abily. "Based on her performance in 2009, I'm sure everyone is aware of what she can do on the field. Abily is a very dynamic player. I'm confident she'll be very successful here in the Bay Area."
Abily left at the end of the regular season to join the French national team in its preparations for the 2009 UEFA Women's Championship. Her absence was given as one of the reasons for the heavily favored Sol's loss to Sky Blue FC in the 2009 WPS championship game.

Hi all,
I just bought a new Citizen Calibre 4700 for my girlfriend from eBay and I want to see if I can verify that it is real. I know I should have probably done this before I bought it but I actually didn't think they made Citizen fakes since frankly most of them are just not that expensive. Anyway, here is a pic (sorry for quality, I took it with my phone) and I was wondering if anyone knew a way to verify by serial number on the back?

Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are Back Together
After a few weeks of speculation, it is obvious that Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are dating again.
The pair were spotted canoodling at Coachella...even though they obviously tried to stay hidden.
TMZ reports that Bieber stood by Gomez's side during Jhene Aiko's set -- apparently the two were hanging out together "all day." At one point, sources say Selena was even spotted sitting on Justin's lap.
For any speculation, TMZ says "it's definitely Justin in the photo -- earlier in the day, he was wearing the exact same humiliating outfit onstage with Chance the Rapper." No, really, Justin what is with the outfit...?
The photos below are said to be Selena and Justin.
What do you think? Are they back together?

This is the story of Kijuan Byrd – he was shot to death by a private security guard with a history of substance abuse, who later was diagnosed with psychological disorders.
CIR's study of the FBI data is among the first to measure how arming civilian guards affects public safety in the United States.
Lobbying by the security industry and big businesses has derailed attempts to require rigorous training standards for armed guards across the country.
CIR has identified dozens of armed guards who previously had been fired from or left law enforcement after being accused of offenses such as civil rights violations, excessive force and corruption.
Regulators have approved licenses for guards without conducting mental health evaluations or checking for evidence of substance abuse.
Regulators repeatedly ignore or fail to investigate guard-related shootings, leaving inadequately trained, traumatized or potentially dangerous guards on the job.
Across the U.S., a haphazard system of lax laws, minimal oversight and almost no accountability puts guns in the hands of security guards who endanger public safety.
Last week's shooting at Florida State University was at least the 42nd U.S. school shooting since 2000. Here's a look at the guns shooters used and how they got them.
Despite government efforts to stamp out abuses in America's visa program for highly skilled workers, unscrupulous job brokers continue to illegally sell visas – sometimes connected to jobs that don't exist.
This documentary investigates a terrifying aspect of the drug wars along the U.S.-Mexico border: the recruitment of child soldiers by the notoriously violent Zetas gang.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Beautiful pup. So excited for you. Our puppy started classes at 10 weeks after his second set of shots. Like below all dogs had to be vaccinated and if they didnt have their third set of shots yet , had to be carried into the trainers area, which was washed with bleach before we got there.
|Beautiful pup! I agree with blackshep- avoid pet stores, parks, even the floor at the vet's office until she's older. I took mine to puppy class at 10 weeks because I knew proof of vaccinations were required. Don't let her sniff or touch puppy poop. Have fun!
I brought my dog to puppy classes at 10 weeks. They require all the dogs to be vaccinated to take classes there, so I think you're ok. You will miss out on critical socialization time if you wait until 16 weeks, so take calculated risks.
Avoid places like pet stores and dog parks with a young pup, but training classes should be ok since you know all the dogs there have been vaccinated.
Beautiful pup. Like Shade said, post lots of pics.
I believe my dog first went to puppy classes at 16 weeks, as it was the youngest age my dog trainer would allow in these classes.
If it were me then I'd wait until she's 16 weeks. You can work with her on your own until that time, and play it safe until she has received all of her shots.
|That's great news, post lots of photos!
Finally, tomorrow is the day!
So, after our arduous journey to find a breeder we are finally bringing our girl home tomorrow! She'll be 9 weeks and looks like an absolute joy.
It was funny how it all worked out, as we were going to be putting a deposit on a litter that was born last week, however the day we were going to mail it out, we got a call from the breeder telling us some sad news, that she had lost her entire litter (9 pups) 3 days after they were born. After talking with her some more and sending my condolences, we started our search anew.
The following night, another breeder got back to me asking me if I was still looking for a pup as she had one available from the litter I had been interested in. She told me that it was kind of a fluke that she became available as it was only because one of the people that came in wanting a smooth changed their mind and decided to go with a plush, and two others decided they wanted different pups than they had originally chosen. We were getting ready to having to wait until mid/late summer before getting a pup, but things just kind of fell into place!
So without further ado here is our newest addition, Raven (Shiloh Shepherd).
As an aside question... she'll be getting her second shots early next week, so my question would be, do you think it would be ok to bring her to puppy social classes? Or should I wait until all of her shots have been completed. There is one training place that we found that has good reviews, seems knowledgeable and I spoke with them and their social/training classes start at 9/10 weeks and only allow up to 16 weeks in that particular class. After you jump up to the next level.

Courtesy: America East Communications Stony Brook Makes Historic Run To College World Series Release: 06/10/2012 Related Links Photo Gallery NCAA Bracket Highlights Box Score College World Series Central Sign Up For Free Email Updates BATON ROUGE, La.-- Stony Brook baseball won the deciding game three in the Baton Rouge Super Regional 7-2 over seventh-seeded LSU to punch the program's first-ever ticket to the College World Series in Omaha beginning Friday, June 15. Stony Brook (52-13) is just the second No. 4 seed in an NCAA Regional to advance to the College World Series. Fresno State advanced as a four seed in 2008 and went on to win the National Championship. The Seawolves are the first America East team to win a Super Regional and first to reach the College World Series since the league began sponsoring baseball in 1990. Current member Maine made seven College World Series appearances with two third-place finishes and a fourth-place finish, but all came prior to 1990. Sophomore right-hander Frankie Vanderka gave the Seawolves their second straight complete game outing by a starting pitcher after Tyler Johnson pitched a nine-inning three-hitter in Saturday's game two win. Vanderka finished with 9.0 innings pitched and five strikeouts, allowing LSU (47-18) just three hits and two earned runs in his sixth start of the season. Meanwhile, the Stony Brook bats belted out 15 hits led by America East Player of the Year Travis Jankowski's 4-for-6 night with a double and two runs scored. William Carmona, the MOP of the Coral Gables Regional, went 3-for-5 with a double, a walk, two runs scored and an RBI, while Maxx Tissenbaum drove in three runs with two doubles and a 2-for-4 night. Stony Brook struck for three runs on three consecutive two-out hits in the third. Jankowski, who had singled and scored in the first, started the rally with a double and scored on Tissenbaum's double. Kevin Krause and Cole Peragine followed with RBI singles that knocked out LSU starter Ryan Eades (5-3). Joe Broussard, LSU's third pitcher of the inning, struck out Sal Intagliata to leave the bases loaded. Tissenbaum's second double of the game, which was misplayed by Mason Katz in center, drove in two to make it 6-1 in the fourth. The Tigers never got closer than 6-2 after that, and at one point, about two dozen fans wearing Stony Brook red — surrounded by more than 10,000 LSU fans — could be heard chanting "S-B-U!" The Seawolves enter Omaha this week winners of 28 of their last 31 games and with the most wins (52) of any other Division I program.

Big Time Rush CD Signing at Mall of America Draws Thousands of Fans [PHOTO GALLERY]
Thousands of screaming teenage and younger fans stood in line for more than 3 and a half hours for the chance to have a brief moment with their musical heroes. The 4 members Kendall Schmidt, James Maslow, Logan Henderson and Carlos Pena Jr. are superstars in the television show created by Scott Fellows which is based on the Hollywood hopes of 4 young hockey players from Minnesota who become part of the boy band Big Time Rush.
The show is a cross between "Miracle" and "The Monkeys." Even though none of the band members are actually from Minnesota… As the boys entered the stairway, it didn't take long for them to stir the thousands of young girls in line at Nickelodeon Universe into a crazed, emotional frenzy with plenty of crying and deafening screams. On their way to entering the stage, they stopped briefly to shake hands, hug and greet some fans. Then the autographs began and there were chants from the fans of "I love you (which ever band member they said)" and signs held up adoring their favorite band member.
Logan Henderson explained "Our creator, Scott Fellows, always loved "The Monkeys" and old school shows in general." We've paid some homage to "The Monkeys" by doing certain shots- like Carlos in a bathtub and all of us pushing him in a lobby, a very classic Monkeys intro."
Afterwards some lucky MOA blog contest winners got to meet the boys backstage. The ones who got a chance to speak about the experience you could hardly understand. Margie Ainsworth shrieked and cried "I love them so much and I've seen them so many times" and "Kendall is my love!"
The show's 4th season just started and even with rumors about this being the show's final season… The boys made it clear if the fans want more… We'll keep going!

Power steering leaking
Hey guys, I've got a 05 SRX 4.6l that's leaking power steering fluid. It had this problem before and the dealer had replaced a line and problem gone. Fast forward to now and it's leaking again. I went out and tryed to find where the leak is coming from and it looks like it coming from one of two lines that go into the rack. I believe one line went all the way to the cooler by the radiator and the other must be coming from the pump. Theres a small bolt right next to the lines so I'm hoping it's just a gasket right there but wanted more info before I get into it. Anyone got info on this? Heres a pic of where I'm talking about
Re: Power steering leaking
There are O-rings on each line. Do "search this forum", long thread on them. You are right, 1 line is high pressure, the return line goes to the cooler.__________________________________________________ ________________

Re: Power steering leaking
Lower line is the return to the reservoir and the top line is the pressure line. I replaced the lower line on my wife's car and it is leaking now at that spot as well. There is an o-ring on each line and that is about it. The bolt has a 10 mm head I believe and the plate secures the lines. The lines have a flange that fits into a recess so the plate holds everything flat. My plan is to clean everything up, degrease and then apply some RTV to the O-Ring and let it all set up for the lower line. To change the lower line if it is really bad:
You need to pull off the plastic skid/air protector. Then you need to drain the engine coolant and remove the lower rad hose ( just take off lower clamp, drain and push hose out of the way) Then you can change the lower power steering line. It takes some effort to wiggle it into place and make sure you protect the o-ring end and you need to use some muscle to complete the task. It is not easy.
Re: Power steering leaking
Thanks guys. I'll pop that cover off and check the orings out and go from there.

UPDATE 2-Oil firm files lawsuit against Arctic protesters
* Cairn seeks fines of 2 mln euros/day as deterrent
* Greenpeace involved in campaign to halt Arctic drilling
* Cairn hopes to open up multibillion barrel oil province (Updates with Cairn statement)
By Tom Bergin
LONDON, June 2 (Reuters) - UK-based Cairn Energy (CNE.L: Quote) has filed a legal action in the Netherlands, seeking fines of up to 2 million euros a day ($2.9 million) if Greenpeace protesters again disrupt the explorer's drilling plans offshore Greenland.
A Cairn spokesman said on Thursday the action was intended as a deterrent after Greenpeace ended a four-day protest which involved protesters hanging suspended from a drilling rig in a plastic pod.
It was also intended "to ensure the safety of those involved in its operations," Cairn said in a statement.
Last year, Greenpeace activists also launched similar action against a Cairn rig offshore Greenland.
Cairn is leading a charge into offshore Greenland, which explorers believe could hold billions of barrels of oil. Exxon Mobil (XOM.N: Quote), Husky Energy (HSE.TO: Quote) and others also plan to drill there. Continued...

Why did Discount Tire switch from Windows to RedHat Linux?
AntonySatyadas 1100009CNT Tags:  redhat windows tire notes lotus linux discount domino 3,526 Views
Any takers?
"The IT team originally tried building a new e-commerce system based on a Windows platform, but the solution did not meet Discount Tire's performance, reliability and stability needs. Additionally, Discount Tire's use of IBM Lotus Domino Server was a critical aspect of its daily ability to meet business demands. Previously running on Windows, the lack of reliability and consistent downtime of its Lotus software was critically impacting its day-to-day operations.
After extensive testing and load balancing, Discount Tire selected Red Hat Enterprise Linux for its critical systems. Since, the Red Hat Enterprise Linux platform has run Discount Tire's entire e-commerce operation, as well as numerous internal applications, including its Lotus Domino application" Check out http://www.lotusonredhat.com

Such is the enigmatic message which ushers us into the kaleidoscopic new album by incomparable Berlin-based band OY, aka Swiss-Ghanaian vocalist & musician Joy Frempong and drummer & producer Lleluja-Ha. A collection of colourful songs weaving OY's own strains of electronica, whirling drums and captivating & humorous storytelling, laced with distinctly African musical and lyrical elements, "No Problem Saloon" is driven by Joy's soulful, melodic and arrestingly versatile voice. Joy and Lleluja-Ha then started exploring the songs on stage, injecting further ideas into the pieces before finalizing the production. This quasi-alchemical process worked wonders, and resulted in a mesmerizing and thoroughly engaging album, which OY have managed to masterfully transpose to the stage, as their exhilarating, dynamic live show has already electrified crowds at prestigious events such as Transmusicales, Les Eurockéennes, Sonar, SXSW, Montreux Jazz and more.

It's too hot outside. Come on in... In a Murakami world, the mundane and the fantastical live side by side in peaceful yet jarring harmony, and usually the world doesn't end! In that spirit, come for the air conditioning but enjoy the unexpected with Rob Schwimmer, master pianist, composer and thereminist. Now a leading exponent of the amazing Continuum, Schwimmer plays as if his life depended on it as he tries to escape the oppression of comedy... or perhaps not. A founding member of the legendary comedy music group Polygraph Lounge, curator of The NY Theremin Society and a well-known personality and solo artist on his own, Schwimmer will guide you through the narrows of his unique outlook on music and life. Playing in such diametrically opposed settings from Carnegie Hall to CBGB's, and for strippers at trucker conventions, somehow his continuity survives in this harsh Murakami-esque environment. Schwimmer's show is a place where deep artistry and a sense of humor can still be friends.

This album, Miller's third, is the defining musical portrait of her career as both composer and musical artisan. Miller blazed a trail in the 1970s as one of the first female Musical Directors for Natalie Cole from 1975-80. Miller's many talents have flourished everywhere from Broadway to the Professional Performing Arts School where Alicia Keys was among her many talented students. In 1997, she received the Presidential Scholar Distinguished Teacher Award from President Bill Clinton. She played in the orchestra for Oprah Winfrey's The Color Purple and was Musical Director for Rain Pryor's Fried Chicken & Latkes. She has also authored a book called The Divanary: A Dictionary for Divas, which was inspired by her interactive musical piece Divas Don't Apologize.

BRIDGET EVERETT: ROCK BOTTOM (special preview performances)
Wednesday & Thursday, July 9 & 10 at 9:30 PM
In Rock Bottom, Bridget Everett, who The New York Times has called "a pure id on the rampage," barrels through life tip-toeing toward disaster, wine bottle by wine bottle and man by man. Instead of succumbing to her chardonnay-induced stupor, Bridget embraces a series of revelations that lead this voice of an angel to redemption. Rock Bottom is what happens when you're too passionate to give up, and too big to fail. The show will feature new original songs plus a few old favorites from Everett's wildly popular monthly showcase at the Pub with her band the Tender Moments. These performances are special preview performances preceding the full theatrical run of Rock Bottom, which opens The Public Theater's 2014-2015 season.

Recession the fashion at major Indian couture show
By David Lalmalsawma
NEW DELHI (Reuters Life!) - India's biggest fashion event started on a dark note in New Delhi with designers using the global recession and emotional depression to set a somber trend for their autumn/winter collections.
Models draped in black, grey and deep purple sashayed down the catwalk at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, a five-day event in which 103 designers vie for the attention of 175 domestic and international buyers.
"We are in the heart of recession, and it's fashionable," said designer Kiran Uttam Ghosh, whose "Frugality is the new Black" collection was inspired by the global downturn.
"I've combined high-street cheap leggings with luxe jackets, T-shirts with luxury shawls," she said. "You can be frugal, sensible, spend less and yet you can be fashionable."
Designer Nitin Bal Chauhan's "Condition Apply Part II" showed the underbelly of fast urban life, especially in India's capital, in a follow-up to an earlier collection.
Models acted out themes such as vanity, divorce and depression on stage wearing predominantly grey pleated dresses, trousers and skirts.
"It's inspired by the urban life, the flip side of urban life far removed from the glowing city life," said Chauhan, who added he is influenced by TV and newspaper stories of urban misery.
Models wore headgear made from junk such as spectacles, which the designer said represented lonely senior citizens left behind in a bustling city, or a study lamp, in reference to students who commit suicide because of work and social pressures. Continued...

ABC refuses to run We Campaign ad
Blog ››› ››› JAMISON FOSER
ABC is refusing to air an Alliance for Climate Protection ad criticizing "big oil" for "spending hundreds of millions of dollars" on lobbyists and ads to "block clean energy."
I wonder how much of that ad money has gone to ABC?
More than 100,000 people have already sent a message urging ABC to air the ad.
UPDATE: Apparently this is ABC's excuse for not running the ad:
"Per our Guidelines, national buildings may be used in advertising provided the depictions are incidental to the advertiser's promotion of the product or service. Given the messages and themes of this commercial, the image of the Capital building is not incidental to this advertising. Please replace the image with one that is not of another national building or monument."
"Not incidental"? The ad is 30 seconds long. The Capital building is on-screen for less than two of those seconds.

How the 1970 Detroit Lions Broke a Seven-Year-Old's HeartMay 7, 2009
I remember becoming a Detroit Lions fan early in the 1970 season. Naturally, it didn't take long for something to happen that, had I possessed more clairvoyance than what's normally ingrained in a seven-year-old, might have caused me to run for the hills, screaming like a banshee.
I have a few scattered memories of the team's games prior to Nov. 8, 1970, a date that shall live in infamy in my little world.
For that was when the half-footed, stumped arm kicker named Tom Dempsey put himself into the record book and the Lions into the loss column.
I was a follower for less than two months, a rookie seven-year-old, as I indicated. And already the team moved me to tears.
Not tears of joy, natch. These were the Detroit Lions, after all.
The game was on the tube, beamed from New Orleans. My dad and I watched from our family room in Livonia, a suburb of Detroit.
The Saints were awful in 1970. They won only two games all year.
The Lions, on the other hand, were pretty good. They had been improving every year under coach Joe Schmidt, still the last man to coach the team to leave with an overall winning record in Detroit.
And Joe's last season was 1972.
The Saints had fired coach Tom Fears earlier that week, and replaced him with assistant J.D. Roberts. The Lions game would be Roberts' baptism by fire as an NFL head coach.
But the 1-5-1 Saints played the 5-2 Lions tough. In fact, they led the Lions, 16-14, late in the fourth quarter.
Detroit quarterback Greg Landry, though, led the Lions toward a go-ahead score with a late, against-the-clock drive. Errol Mann kicked a field goal, putting the Lions ahead, 17-16.
There were less than 20 seconds left.
Those are the facts, culled from my almost-manic obsession with this piece of NFL history. It's like my Kennedy Assassination.
But as a seven-year-old, my only remembrance was my dad chuckling. I wondered why.
The Saints, after a kick return and a short pass, were going to try a game-winning field goal.
From 63 yards away.
My dad laughed. According to DT Alex Karras, the Lions laughed, too. No joke. Some of them were giggling as they lined up for the kick, according to Karras's many re-tellings of the story.
Dempsey, born with half a foot and a stub of a left arm, was an erratic kicker throughout his NFL career. But he had booted three FGs in this game, and was being called on to shatter an NFL record by some six or seven yards.
The snap was good. The placement was precise. And the kick was better than any in league history, turns out.
My dad and the Lions weren't giggling when the ball went end-over-end and landed just over the crossbar, with perhaps inches to spare.
Saints win!
I think I cried. I did that a lot when the Detroit teams lost. Now I do that when I stop for gas.
So that was my introduction, my first real introduction, to Lions football.
What a way to find out about the team, eh?
Anyhow, that 1970 team remains my favorite in Lions history. Maybe because it was the first season I can actually remember.
But maybe also because the '70 Lions rocked. They finished 10-4, winning their last five games. They had the distinction of being the very first Wild Card team in NFC history.
The AFL-NFL merger made its debut in 1970, and back then only one Wild Card was allowed into the playoffs. And the Lions made a mad rush to the finish line to be that team.
Then, in the playoffs, more Lions-ish behavior.
The 1970 Lions were a high-scoring club with a shutdown defense. A good combo, hence the 10-4 record.
They went into the playoffs against the Dallas Cowboys, in the Cotton Bowl.
And the Lions lost, 5-0.
You heard me.
The Cowboys' offense could only manage a field goal, and the defense chipped in with a safety. And that's all they needed to beat the Lions, who were shutout for the only time all season.
I DEFINITELY cried after that one.
Who loses a playoff game, or any NFL game for that matter, 5-0?
Why, the Detroit Lions, of course!
The Lions barely crossed midfield all day, but they had one last gasp drive in them. Landry had been replaced by Bill Munson in an effort to shake things up.
Munson led a gallant effort in another against-the-clock, frantic drive.
The Lions crept closer to the Cowboys' goal line. They made it to around the 35 yard line.
But Munson's pass to Earl McCullouch near the 20 was a tad high, and the ball went off Earl's fingertips, to be intercepted by Mel Renfro, I believe.
Yep, I'm sure I cried.
One of my prized possessions is a 1971 Lions Media Guide, procured by my dad from someone at his work.
Inside is a game-by-game recap of that 1970 season.
I'm embarrassed to tell you how many times I've cracked that tiny media guide open and read those game capsules.
Suffice it: a lot. That's 38 years now, you know.
I remember reading once how Hall of Famer Lem Barney maintained that if the Lions could only have gotten past the 'Boys, they would have won the Super Bowl.
I tend to agree, mainly because the 49ers upset the Vikings in the other playoff game, and the Lions had big time trouble beating the Vikings back then.
Come to think of it, they don't fare too well against the Vikes today, either.
So the 1970 Lions will forever remain close to my heart. Despite the 63-yard field goal and the 5-0 playoff loss.
They were one of the few "might have been champions" Lions teams that have ever existed, post-1957.
Another was the 1962 club, but that's another story. Literally.

I was thumbing through my family cookbook the other night ... and ... there this recipe was. Just staring me in the face saying, ...
"Hey! Remember me?? Make me! Make me! I'm easy and really yummy ... remember????"
Well, yes, I do remember. But I don't know why I go so long between the times I remember.
My sister-in-law gave me this easy Baked Chicken Cacciatore recipe years ago, and it's one of her family's go-to meals. Served up atop cooked pasta, it's a deliciously satisfying (and pretty!) one-dish meal. Okay, well maybe it's two dishes ... you do have to cook the pasta, after all.
But the chicken-and-vegetables part is just one dish. So I was kinda right.
To make this easy dinner dish, you roast some seasoned chicken in a pan. Then add in onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms ... and roast a bit more.
Mmmm hmmmm ... see those golden chunks of chicken? They are cut-'em-with-a-fork tender. But my favorite part are the mushrooms. I love me some roasted mushrooms.

People wanting to lose weight and if these are low fat high fiber then they would be good to incorporate in your eating plan for your weight loss program
if you know anything about past any weight watchers you'd see that vitatops did have a 1 point value....this article was written before the points plus plan came out
I don't know how the points value was figured but on the new plan most come out to 3 points not 1 ... this I found out after purchasing them ....
The best "diet" dessert I have ever had!
The brownies were good BUT it's kind of difficult to portion them out. So if your looking to eat exactly 100 calories the muffins will be your best bet.
These are the GREATEST! I got the Vita-Muffin Deep Chocolate flavor. My 5 yr old son and I are true chocoholics and I can't get him to eat many veggies. These muffins have SOOO many vitamins and minerals and are low in sugar, fat and calories. I thought they may taste "vitaminy" like the orange juice that has the added vitamins/minerals; but it tastes like deep, rich chocolate muffins that I would make from scratch!! These were in the freezer section and I just thawed for 20 seconds in the microwave....instant YUMMO!!
The brownie's are my fav as I am a nighttime sweet cravin' snacker. The products really take the edge off of the craving and they're packed with vitamins. Love it!
yum! yum! yum! my kitchen, purse and office are always stocked with vita muffins.
