Yeah yeah, laugh it up. Clearly I had so much fun reviewing Strike Witches' first episode that I needed a full series dose of High Quality Anime. Dragonar Academy was roughly as terrible as you'd imagine it to be, possessing essentially no redeeming factors whatsoever. It earns the distinct honor of being the worst full series I've ever reviewed for ANN, beating out such luminaries as the Bayonetta movie, Looking Up at the Half-Moon, and .hack//Legend of the Twilight. Congratulations, Dragonar Academy. You are basically as bad as a show can be.
You can check out my full review over at ANN, or my despairing notes below.
Episode 1
Opens with a green dragon, unsurprisingly
A boy who sacrificed himself for a girl
Ash Blake is the boy
The dragon becomes a lady and restores the boy
Now he has a dragon-rune arm
Ridiculous balloon-boobs all over this OP, but the lead is a loli. I guess that's balance
And we're already into huge boobs on the MC in the first scene
Did Ash just have sex with the dragon-lady who's going to create his waifu?
"It's amazing he's made it to Senios when his parr hasn't even been born yet"
Ash is a troublemaker
"I'm not gonna stand here and let those jokes mock my parr" alrighty
Some great "as you all know" exposition about how they're all dragon trainers, and the political position of their country
"Why are you the only person who has the ability to ride other people's parrs?" And of course our MC is super-special
There's a princess, an ojou, etc
"Ice Blood Princess" Hitting basically every cliche note
"You're planning on riding in the big race, right?" my god
And then there's the class president, of course
Pretty standard techno music
The dragons shoot magic and create shields. Lots of beams
oh no, he gets in a fight with the princess
More sexy dragon lady times
This dialogue is sort of wandering around the most awful cliches in a really awkward way
The winner of the race gets a date with the class president
Ono, princess lady is suffering from family baggage
"Don't expect me to thank you" ughhh
Lots of still frames here. The show can't really depict a dragon race
Uh oh, mysterious guy in a mask
"I can see it. Because of the curse… the one that I bear"
Oh no, it's a loli ninja in lingerie
And of course he saves her, and she chucks him off the cliff. Lol
His arm activates!
His dragon loli arrives
The classic "MC finds a floating naked girl" opening
Episode 2
Aaand she punches him for watching her sleep
Welp, naked loli boobs
She's tsun and haughty as hell, of course
Woop, time for sleep-groping. "Could these be the play bites I've heard so much about?" oh my god
"The proud dragon race has no need for clothing!"
"I'm burning up. You have to help me." welppppp
Sneeze panty flash
Princess apologizes
Dragon getting jealous
Her name is Eco
Hahahahahaha, he even has a huge bandage on his chuuni starbrand. Amazing
Spirit butterflies lead Ash to Eco
This show has some nice backgrounds. Pretty sunset colors
And now Eco's naked in a cage
"Get over here and rescue me!"
Doctor Angela Cornwell of course turns out to be a crazy busty lady
Eco's voice is pretty dang shrill
And it's another grope-punch
Wacky comedy music!
And now the doctor's the homeroom teacher, because actions have no consequences in a story written this badly
Episode 3
Seems like today's episode focuses on the student council president, who wants Ash Blake to join the council
Princess apparently also trips the "childhood promise with MC" flag
Incredibly generic peril music here
Rebecca's the student council president
An "Arch" is basically a skintight battle suit
Tsun tsun dere dere tsun
Ninja girl reappears
Mask guy summons a giant monster
Annnd Eco gets grabbed by tentacles, and her clothes get ripped off. Wonderful
Giant dragon laser fight
"I'd love to lecture you about acting like a princess since you are one" gahhhh
And then Eco gets absorbed into the dragon zombie vagina
i hate my life
Yep, just tentacle groping straight-up now
Navi takes this opportunity to give some exposition on how Archs are made
"He sure is full of himself… for a mangy pet dog, that is" these lines are going to killllll meeeee
And Ash gets his power armor
"It's not like I made it just for you or anything!"
"As long as you're a dragon, I will ride you"
"Let us retreat"
And now he summons a giant sword and puts the dragon out of its misery
So now Ash is on the student council, which is all the important characters
Right, Sylvia is Princess's real name
Episode 4
Sylvia flashback
Sylvia, Ash, and Eco all join the student council
She's the school mascot now. Welp
Lots of scenes of just showing off Eco in frilly outfits
Ash now has his own fan club, because of saving the town
The Iron Blood Valkyrie!
The Silver Knight Fan Club makes their introductions, with the ojou Jessica as the leader
Cue ojou laugh
"I have one mission, and one alone – to bear the silver knight's children and be his wife"
This sequence is apparently trying to be funny
Apparently Jessica's family is actually in the service of Rebecca's, and just pretends to be noble
"What's essence? Is it tasty?" wonderful
A personal visit from Princess Veronica, Sylvia's big sister
Sylvia's scared of her
Yep, she's the Iron Blood Valkyrie
Time for some princess fanservice
Apparently she's got a huge magic airship
They're really slowrolling this entrance
Episode 5
"Ice Blue Princess" oh huh I wonder what will happen here
Sylvia getting bullied
And her sister cuts her clothes off, because that is the kind of show this is
And Ash of course gets himself involved
Shamara is the belts and scarf ninja
Ash meets Prim, a busty maid
Bath episode
These balloon boobs are so ridiculous. Do people actually find this appealing? They don't look anything like breasts
Sylvia's sister has a marriage proposal for her
Ash defending Sylvia, because he's the big damn hero
"Why did I have to be born looking like a stupid dummy dumb human?"
A friendly game of dragonball
Sylvia sucks
"Silence!" man this is awkward scripting
Eco referring to the MC as "bub" all the time sure is something
"How dare you pray about getting pregnant"
Episode 6
"Blue Brionac"
Avdocha takes the church hostage
Jessica's strung up in her underwear, of course
"You epitomize nobility moreso than these actual nobles"
Pretty much all the fanservice in this show involves embarrassing and groping the female characters
Eco's a "dragon," but all she really does is make armor for Ash and get captured
Aaand Avdocha cuts Sylvia's clothes off
"I've let my sister down, but I can't do the same… to him"
"I am reborn as a new Sylvia!" god I hate this show
Avdocha swings at Ash. His clothes stay on, of course. And then he gets a big hero moment stopping the dragon
And then he summons an ice bazooka
"So you're my future husband and father of my children, Ash!"
"Why does it feel like Ash has carried me this way before?" this show is soooo baaaad
Time for slapstick
Avdocha was actually just being used to punk Sylvia, because Veronica is a sociopath
"I guess doing something like that takes some real sisterly love, doesn't it?" NO IT DOESN'T. HOLY CRAP THESE PEOPLE
And then the takeaway is they… round up Avdocha-inspired agitators? That's… that's so… GAAHHHH
Episode 7
Oh great, starting off with naked Eco and tentacles. Very promising
Eco's naked at least half her screentime
The humor is "Ash gets punched"
New girl: Lucca, the student council secretary
Ash Blake is going to the special training camp?!? Whoa-a-a, how could we have expected that?!?!
Harem shenanigans time
Ugh, stupid faces and loud overreactions
Welp, now we gotta help loli Lucca learn to ride her dragon again
Time for lolis molesting lolis
Episode 8
Evil mask guy talks about evil mask things, then the team heads to camp
And Eco gropes Sylvia
Time for a beach episode
Still frame beach episode. No getting crazy
This Lucca conflict sure is tedious
And of course the dragon was trying to protect her blah blah blah
Episode 9
Welp, Ash slept through the whole training camp
Zombie dragons everywhere, and of course Sylvia ends up getting groped by tentacles
The show can't actually animate dragons fighting, so it just has them shoot lasers instead
Mask dude Milghouse appears
O no, Milghouse is Sylvia's shamed brother, noooo
Aaand now all the girls are getting tentacled
More laserbeams to avoid actual fighting
Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again
"When I'm with you I feel like I can give things my all"
Episode 10
Eco is such a complete non-character
And we meet Prim again, and she's in underwear
Sylvia's dad is a pervert, obviously
Sightseeing time
"I guess you can hold my hand if you want to." god I hate anime
Ash gets "knighted" as a Dragonar
Sylvia's thinking about having him marry her, of course. Everybody loves Ash
These shots set up for boobs
A masquerade ball
Scarf belts girl is sneaking into the castle too
Episode 11
Opening with naked maid and princess
Time to put Eco in silly outfits
Eco is insecure about Ash leaving her for a human girl
And Sylvia's insecure about Milghouse
And Sylvia gets frightened by lightning and leaps on Ash. what a heroic dude
She falls down on top of him, but the show apparently realizes its error, and then they awkwardly flip positions
They almost kiss, but then are interrupted wah wah
Eco goes on one of those despair-runs heroines do and then finds an ancient ruin and the bad guys
Bondage ninja has an actual modern gun, for some reason
Sylvia's ball outfit is like a half-melted spandex supersuit. She looks like the girl from Empowered
"I've never seen anyone dance so beautifully before, have you?" And then the show attempts to demonstrate Sylvia "dancing beautifully" by blurring the transitions between distant key frames hahahahaha
Eco just keeps getting captured, huh
"As I'm sure you're aware, Millenium is a special form of Fafnarite. It's made up of the mana-rich crystals said to come from thousand-year-old dragon fossils" gotta love anime
Aaand Eco's grabbed by tentacles again. Even when it's not actual tentacles, it's metaphorical tentacles
"The mana detectors picked up an unknown mana reaction" oh no the mana detectors
So what did they think would happen when they pumped a mega-dragon full of thousand-year-old energy? Did anyone think this plan through past the "wouldn't it be cool" stage?
Episode 12
The giant egg is attracting dragons. Now it hatches into a megadragon
Oh no, Ash's SCAR BURNS
"The Star-Branded Dragonar"
Milghouse takes off his mask, and beneath it is… a face!
oh my god he's monologuing
Aaand now big sis is getting tentacled
"Don't you know I'm a royal dragonar of the house of Latreaumont?!?"
"If these things keep getting tighter, I'll be broken" goddamnit
Julius is back
Ash's dragon girlfriend got big
"You're the only one who can save Eco" well yeah
So, uh, apparently the big sister is a siscon
Eco in a literal golden cage noooo nooot agaaaainnnn
Except this is Dragonar Academy, so she's naked
"An Arch's strength is determined by the strength of your feelings"
Suddenly the whole student council shows up
Oh crap Ash is naked! Ash is finally naked!
"You have to accept them, Ash. My feelings for you, okay?" ASH SHOW US YOUR JUNK
And he swipes off one of her horns, and that apparently beats the bad guy

Calcutta, Dec. 2: Lanka was burnt because Ravan stole Sita; now millions of Sitas are being lost, why is Lanka not being burnt'
Do or die. Can Hinduism survive
this sea of Islam'
If theres any doubt in the readers mind about what burning Lanka actually implies, things will be sorted out pretty soon.
A bilingual (Hindi and English) fortnightly published from Delhi by a former BJP Lok Sabha MP is now doing the rounds in far-off and secular Calcutta, reaching the citys more sensitive spots, and, surprisingly, even police stations.
A copy of the late-October issue of Abhay Bharat (a photocopy of which is available with The Telegraph) official organ of the Akhand Hindusthan Morcha found its way to Kasba police station recently, state government officials said. The magazine was sent by registered post, going by the address and the crossed-out stamp, and we are worried about the intended fallout of this new occurrence, a senior official said.
The West Bengal Minorities Commission said the matter has been brought to its notice We intend to inform the state government accordingly, commission chairman Justice K.M. Yusuf said.
It is unfortunate that Bengal and Calcutta, perceived to be communally much less volatile than some other parts of the country, are now being targeted by forces that want to destroy the countrys essentially secular fabric, he added.
Senior officials said they were worried by the timing of Abhay Bharats circulation. Bengal, like the rest of the country, may celebrate Id-ul-Fitr on December 6 (depending on the sighting of the moon), the 10th anniversary of the demolition of the Babri Masjid.
The tenor of the issue doing the rounds has immense potential to lead to undesirable incidents, especially with some of the articles being deliberately targeted against a particular community.
Much of it, for instance, deals with the explosion of the Muslim population in India. Taking to task Hindu intellectuals, Leftists and the secular nobility of India for deliberately ignoring the imbalance between the Hindu and Muslim rates of growth, the article warns that several states could have a Muslim majority in the near future.

I know it's been forever since I've posted something up here… the HDR blog has been my main priority and only now am I finding the time to dig back and touch up the images that I have been meaning to post on this section. I want this to be mainly a place for me to upload photos that I've taken in the past, although occasionally I'll put more current stuff up. For now, let's go to a bit south…
Back in the summer of 2008, I took a trip to Lima, Peru, to do some volunteer work at a school there. The school itself was located 30 minutes outside the city, in a district called Villa el Salvador. 'Villa' (as we called it) had started as a shantytown in the 1970′s, when immigrant people from the countryside of Peru settled and needed a place to live. They created a mostly self-sustaining environment, growing their own food, creating their own form of government, etc. For this reason, unlike many other areas of extreme poverty, the residents of Villa have a very distinct pride in where they live and what they have, despite living in conditions that were frankly alien to a Westerner like myself and those who were working with me. I was asked to assist at a school, to help a teacher in a classroom with 17 3 year old kids. The school was set up for children from around Villa who came from families of four or more earning less than one american dollar a day. The school, Deporte y Vida (Sport and Life, I think, it translates to?) became my second home during that month, and I got to know the teachers, and especially the kids. My lack of spanish put a severe damper on my ability to connect with the teachers and adults, but I was able to communicate basically with the kids because, well, I guess I know about as much spanish as a 3 year old Peruvian. I spent my time making copies (manually, with ink and tracing paper) and entertaining the kids in any way possible, which I soon found out usually meant throwing them up in the air, spinning them around, generally doing all the things their teachers wouldn't do for them!
I was advised by the staff at the volunteer headquarters in Lima not to even bring a camera outside of the city, but after spending a single day in Villa I knew I couldn't leave without pictures. Most of the people there had never even seen a camera before, and did not even have running water or electricity. I tried my best to communicate my desire to bring a camera to the school, and when the teachers finally realized what I was saying their faces lit up and they began chattering amongst themselves with huge smiles on their faces. That was enough for me. The next day, I came with my 40D and 10-22mm, with no battery grip or lens hood to try and make the thing as unassuming as possible. The initial reaction was of puzzlement, but when I took a picture of one of the children and then turned the camera around to show him, the room completely erupted and I could quickly see all hopes of getting any learning done that day being tossed out the window. I started to apologize to the teachers but they were just as enthralled as the kids! They just couldn't get enough of it, and constantly looked up at me smiling, waiting for me to raise the camera and make it click so they could see their faces. It was truly unlike anything I've ever experienced before, and doubt I'll ever experience again. I'll post a few of the kids, the school, and Villa el Salvador itself here. Most of the ones I'd taken of the kids were done without being able to look through the viewfinder, due to the fact that there was almost always a kid on my back, and in my other arm… luckily the 10mm is vastly wide, so if you aim it in the general direction of what you hope to capture, it will probably end up somewhere in the frame!
We had our weekends free to travel, and I took two trips into the Andes. The first was to Machu Picchu, but for various reason I won't post any shots from there… mainly because, no matter what kind of camera you have, what cool angle you think you found, or how great the weather is that day, your shots look EXACTLY like those of the millions of other people who have been there and found the exact same cool angles as you… it honestly is a place you just have to visit. Photographs do not do it near justice. The second trip I took, however, was to the town of Huaraz, which is over 10,000 feet above sea level in the Andes. The town is famous for the glaciers that surround it, and me and a few others from my group were lucky enough to be able to take a hike up into these glaciers… it may have been one of the hardest things I've ever done, hiking 5000 meters up a steep glacier when you are ALREADY oxygen deprived at 10,000 feet, but, as the pictures show, it was worth it and then some.

One of the sixty-two moons of Saturn, Enceladus, has been found to have an underground ocean of water that's at least as large as Lake Superior, the largest of North America according to researchers. The research was led by Luciano Iess from the Sapienza University of Rome and was based on data from NASA's Cassini spacecraft, which has been floating among Saturn's moons for a decade now. Interest has grown around Enceladus since 2005, when researchers detected plumes of water vapor ejecting from long fractures in its surface known as tiger stripes.
The supposedly discovered ocean was found at the south pole of Enceladus, a tiny moon about as wide as Arizona, putting the moon among the ranks of Saturn's Titan and Jupiter's Europa, which are also believed to hold oceans of water beneath frozen ice.
According to what researchers told The Verge
These are among the most interesting objects from the point of view of astrobiology. This moon was believed to be geologically inactive — essentially a dead body, The fact that there are these geysers which eject more than a hundred kilometers over the surface was surprising."
From the results are being published yesterday in the journal Science, Researchers found that the ocean of water is about 8 Km deep and covers at least from Enceladus' south pole to around half way to its equator. It may actually go farther than that — potentially even reaching the equator — though they can't say either way.
The lead scientist of the project, Less further added that After Europa, Enceladus is the second body in the solar system that we've discovered to have rock and water in contact.

Well – that was quite a break wasn't it!
10 months since my last post – the longest break by far that this blog has taken during the last six and a half years. Thank you so much for the comments via email, twitter and in person from people asking when I was going to start writing again. Well I am happy to say that the answer is now!
There will be quite a change though to the normal dribble that I usually type out as our circumstances have changed quite a lot.
Living or spending lots of time in Thailand are no longer part of our plans.
We have moved 4,000 kms clear across the other side of the country so living in the outback in the far north of Western Australia is also gone although both places have and will be visited regularly.
Homeschooling my kids has also changed quite significantly.
New businesses have been started and old ones have changed direction.
And that is just half the stuff that has been going on! I look forward to slowly bringing you up to speed over the next few weeks.

STEVEN Davis has declared himself ready for international duty and keen to help Northern Ireland getting off to a winning start tomorrow in their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign.
The Villa midfielder sat out the warm-up victory against Finland in Helsinki because of a thigh strain.
Davis, 21, has recovered from that setback and looks certain to face Iceland at Windsor Park.
He said: "At the time the injury was disappointing because the new manager at Villa (Martin O'Neill) had just come in.
"I only had a couple of weeks' training before the season started but the manager has shown faith in me. It has been good to play in the last three games and I have got my fitness back."
A new era is in its early stages at Villa, with O'Neill taking charge of the players and new owner Randy Lerner taking control of the business side.
Davis said: "Personally things are going well. For my part, I know I just have to keep expressing myself on the pitch."
Manager Lawrie Sanchez believes the player is a future captain of the national side.
Davis, however, is focusing on giving the Windsor Park crowd something to shout about.
He said: "We are moving in the right direction and people are feeling positive. There is a lot of optimism around the place but we cannot be complacent. It is important we go out and do our best on the pitch."
With Blues' Damien Johnson sidelined through suspension, Nottingham Forest midfielder Sammy Clingan looks set to retain his place in the team after an assured display against Finland.
"I have played alongside Sammy with the Under-21 team and know he is a good player," said Davis. "We had an understanding then and worked off each other."

Teenagers are expected to be undisciplined, moody, and rebellious. It is part of growing up and growing away from the restrictions of childhood. Most adolescents manage this period of transition successfully, emerging with grace into adulthood. How much more difficult it must be to manage the transformation while confronting a life threatening illness. In this Everyman documentary we were shown how some young people were coping with life, friendships, and a variety of serious diagnoses.
The programme opened with Catherine, a 16 year old girl with cystic fibrosis. Catherine has friends her own age, and …

Tyndale House is giving away a free PDF download of the very first book in the series, Voyage with the Vikings. Here's the summary: "Beth and Patrick find a mysterious letter while in the Imagination Station requesting a Viking sunstone. The letter is old and says that someone named Albert will be imprisoned if the sunstone isn't found. Mr. Whittaker sends cousins Patrick and Beth to Greenland circa 1000. On their quest for the sunstone, the cousins meet Vikings Erik the Red and Leif Eriksson and find the sunstone as they join Leif on his first voyage to North America. But the adventure is just beginning, for when they return to Mr. Whittaker's workshop with the sunstone, there is another note waiting for them, requesting a silver goblet. Join Patrick and Beth as they continue their travel to various lands and time." You can download it here.

As it known there is no sea in Armenia, but it doesn't matter that a holiday on the beach is impossible in Armenia. On the contrary, it is possibble to swim in the water and suntan on the sand of shores of the most famous and the biggest mountain lake – Sevan. This wonder of nature is situated among the mountains on the height of 2000 meters above the sea level.
Today Sevan with its surrounding is a beautiful resort with hotels, motels, holiday houses, tourist centers and restaurants for holiday makers with different financial means. Lake Sevan is beautiful in any season and in any waether, but of course, most of the holiday makers visit the sight in summer season.
For the inhabitants of Armenia Sevan is a place where one can escape from heat and problems; for numerous tourists from abroad it's a place to go on piligrimage and on opportunity to enjoy the wonderful natural panorama of the blue lake. By the way, this lake has a special light-turquoise color which greatly impresses everybody who sees it for the first time.
St. Astvatsatsin (Mother of God) monastery overlooking Sevan Lake. Erected in 874 AD on orders of Princess Mariam of Sunik, daughter of King Ashot Bagratuni.
The mountains sourrounding Sevan, its mineral resources, clear air and unique natural environment make it even more charming (there is an artifical food of pine-tees and see-buckthorn of the lake's shore).
Much has been done for the last few years to make Sevan an international tourissm center: it has been developed the infrasttructure, a lot has been done to raise the level of service in hotels and holiday houses built around the lake for the present. There are also luxurious villas among them.
One can make a trip around the lake by quite different transportation means – by bycicle, motorcycle or by car over the ring road or by rowing boats or sailing vassels along the shore. The length of the trip by all the means of transportation makes no longer than 200 kilometers. People come here to have a rest, swim, sunbathe and to taste the excellently cooked trout, crawfish, and other gifts of the lake.
Swimming season opens in mid-June and lasts till mid-September. In summer the temperature of water on the lake's surface makes 18-20 ºC. The temperature of air falls down in the evening and one needs to have warmer clothes with him.
As Sevan is a mountain lake, it is very easy to get sunburn here, so do yourself a favor don't stay in the sun long the first few days not to suffer later.
In comparison with other resorts, Sevan is also famous for many numerous cultural and hstorical monuments on its territory.

Hello, December! This month will be all about the holiday recipes at The Bikini Experiment. Dishes with holiday flare are some of my absolute favorites. I hope to inspire you to whip up some healthy dishes to spread seasonal cheer. However, it is also kind of awesome to multi-task and make our lives a little easier.
How is that possible you might ask? This recipe for herb and honey green beans is the perfect side dish. Enjoy it as part of your upcoming celebration dinners or with a week night meal. With minimal ingredients, this creation just so happens to be a very easy vegetable to make. Herbs and honey? Be prepared to have everyone think you are getting a tad fancy.
Herb and Honey Green Beans
Getting creative with vegetables is very important. Otherwise it is easy to get bored and who wants that? The seasoning take center stage here. There is a tiny bit of sweetness due to the honey. Plus just a touch of butter to add taste and healthy fat.
Nutritious Choices
Wait just a minute! Butter is how healthy? What will they think of next?
Yes, they have changed all the studies* on butter being evil. However, you want to make sure you are buying butter from grass-fed cows. Not to worry – it is very easy to see if you look closely at your labels. The fat is still very dense so you will want to be mindful of your portions. In moderation, just a little butter can really add pop to any dish.
Getting a little hungry? I thought so.
The Recipe
- 16 oz Green Beans
- 1 Teaspoon Dried Rosemary
- 1 Teaspoon Dried Thyme
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- ½ Tablespoon Grass-Fed Butter
- Pinch of Himalayan Salt
- 1 Teaspoon Coconut Oil
- Wash and rinse the green beans.
- Add a steamer to the bottom of a pot with about an inch of water at the bottom.
- Once the water starts to boil, place a lid on the pot, and allow to simmer for 5-6 minutes.
- In the mean time, melt the coconut oil in a pan over the stove.
- Drain the green beans and add to the pan with coconut oil.
- Add the herbs, salt and honey and sauté for 3-4 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and add the butter to the green beans.
- Once the butter is melted, transfer to a serving dish.
I hope this tasty dish finds its way to your table!
Coming Soon
I am excited to share more seasonal recipes with you this month! I have some ideas up my sleeve, but I am always open to suggestions. Please let me know if there is a favorite of yours that you'd like to cook or bake in a healthier way.
Santa's helpers will make it happen for ya!

Question about 1995 Buick Park Avenue
Posted by randyfritsch on
Do you mean a VALVE in the TEMP Control apparatus? My heater core is fine, but only cold air blows on the passenger side.
I have a 95 lesabre and am expereancing the same problem. The core is fine and a shop tried to reset it. It stating to look like the 500 dollar module. Do you have any suggestions/ Could I convert this to manual controls?
99 buick park avenue has no actuator rod behind glove box now what?
blows colod on passenger side hot on driver side has dual climate control
As snowbird said, it's most likely your passenger climate control system. Could be a short in a wire or a burnt acuator that moves the passenger door open and close. If you don't have the money or time to troubleshoot the problem you can pull down the glovebox and you'll see a metal rod about 8 inches long connected to the acuator. If you pop it off by the white connector, you can move it to full hot or cold. If it was the heater core it wouldn't matter where the air is comming out, it'd be the same temp.
It'll take you 5 minutes tops to simply check it by moving that door.
Good Luck
Posted on Oct 30, 2008
Passenger side climate control may have a burnt out actuator, happened on my 95 park avenue. If you pull your glove box down past it's stops it's right behind it. Also if you're low on cash or time you can easily pop off the bar (6" thin metal rod) from the white connector on the actuator and move the blend door to full cold or hot. Sure annoying if you need to go cold or hot often but if you're strapped for cash it's a easy fix. It'll take ya 1 minute tops.
Good Luck
Good for the summer not so good for the winter. Do you have auto climate control. That's the one that you can set your side hotter or colder then the other side of the vehicle. If this is the case then it could be the oh I can't think of the correct name of it but all it is, is an value with in the temp control. Or the other thing that it could be is the your heater core is gone. A good way to check this is to get the car up to operating temp fine were your inlet and outlet hose are for the heater turn on you heater with the controls in the high temp. Then touch the inlet hose that will be hot then touch the outlet hose that should be hot also, if not hot then the core requires replacement or you can try an coolant flush first to see if that works.
Posted on Aug 21, 2008
I have the same problem on my 99 park. I had it fixed two years ago ($300), but its doing it again. They said it was the "switch" that controled the blend doors. When I went back to the shop, they said the part was only warranted for 90 days. I'm going to a junkyard and get a used temperature actuator and put that one on. Don't have $200 for the part thats only going to last a year and a half..

Youth movement a boon for Mount Anthony
BENNINGTON — Mount Anthony Union High School swim team coach Anna Swierad has in spades what coaches all over want — youth and experience.
Usually that means a lot of seniors and freshmen, with not many in between.
That's not the case here, where there is youth and experience in most of her swimmers, regardless of age. Out of 27 swimmers total, 13 are freshmen.
Swierad, along with assistants Ann Webster Lang and MAU swim team alum Ashley Dunican, hope that 2015-16 can be better than both teams' 5-5 finish a year ago.
"I'm very excited about this, I'm going to have a team for the next few years," Swierad said. "More freshmen came out than expected."
There's also a good amount of leadership from the older swimmers. There are 18 on the girls side and nine are freshmen. They're led by seniors Bridget Ahearn and Phebe Hall, the captains, and classmate Shelby Haynes, another returning swimmer.
"Bridget and Phebe are strong returners, I've been fortunate to have them since middle school," Swierad said. "I can put them in any event and they'll do it. Bridget is a fast freestyler and Phebe just missed the breaststroke [time] by .01 second for all-Berkshire [league]. She wants to bring the breaststroke record to MAU."
Four juniors don the caps for the Patriots, including Summer Lampron, Jami Mathers, Munroe Ports and Jena Staab. All have been swimming for years, all the way down to the middle school level.
"Jami battles injuries and still swims and she's the team's biggest cheerleader," Swierad said. "Munroe has been swimming since middle school, although she'll miss the first meet and Jena comes from Arlington and everyone loves her. Watching them, you'd never know which kids are from Arlington or Mount Anthony, they all get along."
A handful of Mount Anthony swimmers are in a cooperative agreement as the Patriots are the only swim team in Vermont.
There's only two sophomores, foreign exchange student Aibeka Mamasaldova and Ashley Steinhoff, and nine freshmen — Emily Calder, Chloe Gore, Hayleigh Loomis, Raven Realmuto, Savannah Robson, Hanna Sanderson, Lily Spencer, Shaana Staab and Caroline Worthington.
Calder will be a long-distance specialist, while Robson can enter any event. Spencer will focus on individual medley and breaststroke.
"Emily will be good right away. Chole and Hayleigh have taken to the sport. Savannah has a lot of talent and Shaana and Lily have been swimming for a while. Raven and Hanna will be a part of the relays and Caroline has really stepped up for us in the freestyle," Swierad said.
There's nine swimmers on the boys side, but that's a pretty good number, Swierad said, because it gives Mount Anthony at least three relay events in which they can compete.
"A lot of the other teams don't have enough for a relay," Swierad said.
The top male swimmers is sophomore Zach LaForest, who made the all-Berkshire League team with a near-record effort in the freestyle. Seniors Kevin Gorry and Andrew Spencer are the senior captains — each has swam for the Patriots for a number of seasons.
"Zach was so close and the ones ahead of him graduated," Swierad said.
Sophomores Owen Denue and Morgan Flynn will make their mark in the relays, although both will race individual events as well.
Four freshmen round out the list, including Adam Sampsell, Tristain Thomas, Caden Watson and Luke Williams.
Swierad said that Monument Mountain will be one of the tougher teams in the Berkshire League, but past that, it's anyone guess.
"I'll know more after the first meet, we have to take each meet as it comes," Swierad said.

A Side Note
What I am Looking at: Paul Charles Pallaro
Paul and I went to graduate school together in the early 1990s at Indiana University. "A Mark In The Sand" is documentary by Flynn Donovan about the art of Paul Charles Pallaro. Flynn Donovan does a fantastic job capturing Paul and his work.
A Mark in the Sand (part I)
(part II)
Caravaggio fascinated me throughout my student years. Not only for his heightened representation and pushing the forms out into the viewers personal space, but also the way he pushed a censored spirit into that space. Despite the grandeur of light and form, his works are very intimate. The image of Thomas poking around in the wound of Jesus reveals, only to Thomas' touch, some sort of mystery beneath the fold of Jesus' skin. This image has always been a startling image for me. The encounter between Jesus and Thomas is a physical encounter. Thomas seems almost like a blind man focused on the tactile touch at the end of his finger along with Jesus' restraining grip around his wrist. Thomas is orientated to be from the viewers space. He is our entry into the painting. By probing jesus' wound he is modeling how we are to poke into the painting – we doubters.
It's all visual, but I am left with a tremendous tactile sensation on the tip of my index finger.
And it is very sexual. From the mid 1980's to the mid 1990's there were many artist exploring this very orientation of the roles of the sexes.
I just realized we haven't heard much about Caravagio lately.
It was a strong influence on the blue draped elephant (the top image) in the previous post.
Pattern Language
I am posting this as a placeholder for the use of the term "Pattern Language." I used it in my last post in referring to the built environment in the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. It is a term made popular by Christopher Alexander in his book by the same name (Amazon.com). You can explore more at www.patternlanguage.com.
Because of my interests in planning I have a tendency to think in terms of how we move through the world and know. This is a good stepping-off point into a discussion about my own work and how I reference and build a painting.
Missing Paintings
In my first attempt to get my work seen, two of my paintings were stolen from a group show I participated in with Uncle Freddy's Gallery. When I first heard they were missing I was not so upset – I didn't feel terribly invested in them. But now that a month has gone by and I am looking at these images, I am much more upset.
If you have any information regarding the location of the these works, please contact the Hammond police department. 219/852-2906
Hammond Gallery Paintings Swiped
Times Correspondent | Friday, December 19, 2008 |
HAMMOND | Four monumental paintings collectively valued at $51,000 are missing from a temporary gallery in the former Mercantile National Bank building at 5243 Hohman Ave., police said.
The sheer magnitude of the crime — the largest piece stolen measures 8 feet by 12 feet — has left detectives scratching their heads, and the artists hanging theirs.
"You hope that some of your better work can be around so people can see it," said well-known local artist Tom Torluemke, whose enamels "Hide & Seek" and "Between Two People" were among the pieces stolen.
The paintings were part of a fall exhibit which reunited some two dozen artists to celebrate the original downtown location of Uncle Freddy's Gallery, which Torluemke founded with Linda Dorman in 2002.
After the show ended, some of the larger pieces were left at the site with permission from the building's owner, the Hammond Development Corp., Dorman said, until weather conditions improved.
And then the paintings, including two by East Chicago artist Thomas Frank, were discovered missing on Wednesday.
"We just want them back," said Torluemke, best known for his 12 foot by 25 foot tile installation, "Jesus Speaks to the Children," at Andrean High School, terrazzo flooring in Indianapolis International Airport and murals at the Indianapolis-Marion County Central Library.
Torluemke and Dorman said they promise not to press charges if the works are returned or can be recovered undamaged. They ask that anyone with information about the artworks call their gallery at (219) 923-1909.
Police had no suspects as of Thursday afternoon. Detective John Murks can be reached at (219) 852-2906.
Images of some of the missing paintings can be seen at www.tomtorluemke.com.

Question about Maytag SAV2555A Top Load Washer
I have a MayTag washer model# PAVT244AWW. The belt broke and needs replaced. I looked at the bottom where the belt fits, and noticed a pulley was broken.

SOURCE: Maytag washer Model MAV6000
this is my experience repairing the maytag washer Atlantis mav series 9750 aww, I had to replace the spin bearing since it was making a jet engine noise when it was spinning out the water. its not an easy job for my 1st time taking this machine apart, you literally take it all apart to get to this bearing, but now I can show how to do it with pictures making it easier for you to do it. even if you have to replace something other than the spin bearing, this how to tutorial will show you how to get to most of the parts in this machine, parts are not that expensive, 50-80for bearing kit, here is my site on how to do it
there is also a download for the repair manual

SOURCE: Maytag Performa PAV2300AWW screaching noise, belt problem, pulley broke
My Maytag Performa was making the loud squealing noise. I changed out the water pump/bearing, took care of the problem.
Putting a new belt on just help burn up the bearing (they needed replacing) and probably ruined the new belt. Probably seized the water pump bearing and the belt jumped and broke the motor pully. A washing machine motor is very strong, when that h20 pump bearing seized (or possibly some bearings jamed up) the motor kept on turning that belt and the plastic pully gave in. You'll need to replace that also. If the h20 pumb bearing is turning freely, likely the bearings jammed up but or now loose. That bearing should be tight, no slack or play in it. You can probably wobble the pully on it all around while turning it. The slightest slack is too much.

i am instructing on the motor pulley.it is plastic,get it off any way you can with out hurting the motor shaft.i think somtimes i would use large channel locks.you dont need to save any of it.

SOURCE: Maytag washer has black gunk underneath on pulleys and belt
replace the transmission
Posted on May 26, 2009
SOURCE: broken e-clip
This is not an easy clip to put in. If you have purchased the thrust bearing kit (part number 12500036) to get the clip it will be helpful but may still be hard to get the clip in. The kit comes with another washer that is thinner, making it slightly easier to install the clip. The reason it is hard to get in; your brake (part num. 35-2948) has worn and as your brake wears the shaft raises and puts more pressure on the clip (which is probably why your clip has broken). I would advise to change the brake and thrust bearing kit. Even after changing both of these the clip can still be a problem to getting on. You will need to use a small screwdriver to pull the transmission shaft down and get one side of the clip in at a time. It is slightly easier with 2 people, one pulling the shaft with a screwdriver and the other putting the clip on. The only problem, changing the brake requires a specialty tool which is about $100. The tool relieves the pressure of the brake spring which is somewhere between 200-400lbs pressure. You may want to call the local repairman on this one unless you don't mind spending this much on a tool and take precautions to relieve the spring correctly.

The Tasmanian Pademelon is only found in Tasmania although it was once found in the southeastern part of Australia.
They dig tunnels in long grasses and bushes in a swamp biome.
The Pademelon is also called the Genus Thylogale.
The Tasmanian Aborigines had well-established communities over the length of Tasmania thousands of years before the island was discovered by Europeans. Most of the oldest known settlements are in the northern half of the state.
In 1642, a Dutch explorer named Abel Tasman was the first European to sight Tasmania. He initially named the island Van Diemen's Land after his employer, but parliament changed the name to Tasmania in 1856.

people believed Tasmania was connected to Victoria before they went exploring and discovered that it wasn't.

This Memorial, which replaces a wooden structure, was unveiled on
13 December 1925 and initially commemorated those Tasmania's who served in the Great War. The inscription on the monument employs the dates 1914-1919 rather than 1914-1918. This anomaly was not uncommon and was presumably influenced by the date of the Versailles Treaty (28 June 1919) and the period of active service rather than the actual cessation of hostilities in November 1918.

Teachers union to go ahead with NAPLAN boycott
The Queensland Teachers Union (QTU) has voted to proceed with a boycott of the National Assessment Program Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) tests.
The QTU says it will not supervise next month's NAPLAN tests unless the Federal Government makes changes to its MySchool website.
The Industrial Relations Commission (IRU) last week directed the QTU to lift the ban and administer the tests.
But QTU president Steve Ryan says the union's executive voted on Tuesday night to leave the moratorium in place.
Gillard meets union
Federal Education Minister Julia Gillard says she used a meeting with the Australian Education Union (AEU) on Wednesday afternoon to urge them not to boycott NAPLAN.
She says she had a respectful discussion with the AEU but does not know if they will change their minds.
"I made it clear to the executive members that I wasn't there to negotiate about the MySchool website," she said.
"I wasn't there to engage in a confrontation either.
"I went to them to put my view to them about how important MySchool is and how vital it is that this year's national tests go ahead."
Mr Ryan says the meeting did not make any significant process.
"I still remain hopeful that we can get a way through this, because from our point of view, we want some resolutions to the problems with the MySchool site, and I'm sure the Minister wants the children to do the NAPLAN test as we do," he said.

I'm not going to talk about the recent horrific event. I'm not going to talk about the sadness, the fear, and what feels like acid burning in my stomach when I drop my boys off at school. I'm not going to talk about the spontaneous tears that are shed at any given moment throughout my day. I'm just going to share some funny tidbits I've had with my kids over the past few days. Because, after something like this you just wanted to embrace and remember every single moment.
At my observation that the boys' christmas lights in their room were suddenly all working. Deacon – "That means someone must have defeated the Death Star so now they are all working." I never realized the Death Star had the "force" to make only half the strand of lights work. Who knew? Congratulations to the Jedi that defeated it.
Playing with clay. "What are you going to make?" Logan – "I'm going to make God's dad." "Do you mean Jesus' dad, God?" "Oh yeah, silly me." "So you know what God looks like?" contemplating… "Um, no. I'm just going to make baby Jesus."
Asking the three year old what he wants for breakfast. "Waffles, pancakes, cereal, or a banana?" "I want marshmallows." Sorry, not happening buddy unless you sneak them…which he did. Priceless moment walking into the kitchen to find your child on the counter with a bag of marshmallows, feeding his 7 year old brother. At least he shares, right?
Their thoughts on the Grinch. "He needs a mommy just like Captain Hook does."
Enjoy your babies everyone. Hug them, kiss them, and smell their hair. Watch them sleep. Laugh with them. What funny things have they said lately? Please share. Go ahead, have some marshmallows for breakfast.

How To Prepare Your Home
No homeowner looks forward to fumigating their home, but termites happen, and fumigation is oftentimes the most effective treatment. If your termite inspection has revealed a termite infestation and your home has a date with a pretty striped tent, then make sure the fumigation is as successful as possible by preparing your home correctly. You want to make sure you keep your family and food safe while ensuring that the termites have nowhere to hide.
Family and Pets
Termite fumigation utilizes toxic chemicals to kill the colony of termites infesting your home. This fumigant will eventually disperse leaving your home absolutely safe to re-enter. However, you must make sure you and your family are out of the home during the fumigation. Your pest control contractor will tell you exactly how long the fumigation will take, but expect to be out of your home for at least a few days. All people, pets, and plants need to be removed from the house for their safety.
Food and Medicine
The fumigant is extremely effective at killing termites. Before the fumigation begins, your pest control company will give you special Nylofume bags that will be able to protect your food from the gas. You'll want to double-bag all food items that have been opened. Plastic, metal, or glass jars and cans that are still manufacturer sealed (i.e. have never been opened) do not have to be bagged.
Make sure you also double bag all medicines.
Cosmetics, lotions, hygiene products, body wash, shampoo, and other toiletries do not need to be bagged. If you have any questions on whether something should be bagged, give us a call or simply bag it just to be safe.
Drawers, windows, and cabinets
To make sure that the fumigant can get into every nook and cranny, your pest control company will instruct you to open all cabinets, drawers, and doors in your house. You will also need to remove waterproof covers on beds, open blinds, and unplug all heating sources in your home. You don't want anything flammable to activate with all that fumigant in your home.
To allow a proper seal between the fumigation tent and the ground, please trim back and remove all plants and storage at least 1-2 feet away from the exterior of the structure. Also be sure trees are trimmed and not touching the roof.
Before the fumigation starts, you'll be asked to hand over your keys to the pest control teams. These keys should open all areas of your home, including drawers, doors, windows, and safes. Bring any important documents or valuables with you if you would prefer not to leave them unsecured in your home.
The Review
This may seem like a lot of preparation, but it's important to be cautious when dealing with potent chemicals. Don't feel worried that you might miss something. Your pest control company will review your home before releasing the fumigant to make sure your food sources are safe and all pets and plants have been removed.
If you need termite extermination services and live in San Diego or San Diego County, contact Best-Rate Termite to schedule a termite inspection.
