One of the three directions of a sheet. Items that you choose for a query appear in the axes. See: top axis, side axis, page axis, axis item.
An item appearing in either the top axis, side axis, or page axis of a sheet. In a table, items can appear only in the top axis or page axis; in a crosstab, items can appear in any axis. See: axis, data item.
A set of related information with a common business purpose, organized into folders. Defined in the End User Layer using Discoverer Administrator. See: End User Layer, folder.
A mathematical formula performed on one or more items. Discoverer Desktop enables you to build complex calculations.
To remove all levels of related items from below a selected item. In effect, to undo a drill-down. See: drill down.
Conceptually Identical Objects are elements in different EULs that refer to the same business objects, (e.g, folders, item-classes, hierarchies). When identifying Conceptually Identical Objects, Discoverer Desktop uses either Headings or Identifiers to match elements.
Criteria for filtering data displayed in a sheet. Discoverer Desktop enables you to combine several conditions.
A sheet layout that arranges items in a matrix of rows and columns. Items appear in both the top and side axes. Use a crosstab to display summary information and show how one item relates to another, such as sales by region by month. A crosstab is sometimes called a matrix. See: table.
The item expressing the relationship between a top axis item and a side axis item. Only items which have a data item in common can appear opposite each other in the top and side axes. Applies only to crosstab-layout sheets. A data item is sometimes called a measure. See: axis item, datapoint.
The value of a data item, as displayed in a cell of a sheet. A datapoint reflects the relationship between intersecting axis items in a crosstab. See: data item.
To expand an item to include items related to it. Discoverer Desktop may re-query the database. See: drill down, drill up.
To expand an item to include related items lower than it in the hierarchy. Discoverer Desktop may re-query the database. See: drill, drill up, collapse.
To expand an item to include the next related item above it in the hierarchy. Discoverer Desktop may re-query the database. See: drill, drill down, collapse.
A layer of information that Discoverer Desktop uses to hide the complexities and details of the underlying database. The End User Layer makes it easier and faster to create queries because it organizes the data to reflect particular business areas. The same data can also be used for more than one business situation. The End User Layer is defined using Discoverer Administrator. See: database, business area.
Formatting that highlights data meeting certain criteria you define. For example, you can highlight names of sales people exceeding their quotas in blue. Discoverer Desktop enables you to display several exceptions at once.
A collection of related items within a business area. Folders are defined in the End User Layer using Discoverer Administrator. See: item, business area.
Formatting that suppresses duplicate values for an item. Applies only to table-layout sheets. For example, if you group sort an item called Region, information will appear grouped under such headings as East, West, North, and South. A group sort is sometimes called break format.
Identifiers are unique names that Discoverer Desktop uses to identify business area objects (e.g. folders, items, calculations). When matching elements common to different EULs, Discoverer Desktop uses identifiers to locate elements in different EULs that refer to the same business objects (also known as Conceptually Identical Objects).
For example, a folder named 'Sales' in EUL 'A' may refer to the same folder named 'Sales Figures' in EUL 'B'. Both folders have the same identifier and can therefore be identified as referring to the same folder.
A particular category of information within a folder, defined in the End User Layer. Items you choose for a query appear in the top axis and side axis of the resulting sheet. See: folder.
A Materialized View is a summary mechanism used by Oracle Enterprise Edition databases. Materialized Views pre-compute and store aggregated data for use in SQL queries.
An item that enables you to view data from a particular perspective. Page items apply to a whole sheet. When you create a page item from an axis item or data item, one value appears at a time, such as 1997 for Year. You change the value of the page item—such as 1997, 1998, or 1999—by choosing from the list of available values in the Page item box. Items can be dragged to the Page item box from either the top axis or the side axis.
To drag an item from one axis to the other (crosstabs only), or from an axis to the Page item box. A side axis item becomes a top axis item or a page item or vice versa. Pivoting enables you to display the data more compactly and show relationships between items more clearly.
A search that retrieves information from a database according to criteria you specify. The criteria include items, layout, formatting, conditions, and calculations. Results of a query are displayed in a sheet.
An Discoverer Desktop feature that gives an estimate of the time required to retrieve the information in a query. The query prediction appears before the query begins, so you can cancel the query.
The axis of a sheet that runs vertically along the left side of the sheet. Applies only to a crosstab. See: axis, axis item.
To specify how data in an item should be ordered. For example, you can sort an item from low to high (A–Z) or from high to low (Z–A).
Acronym for Structured Query Language, the language used to define and manipulate data in a database. You can view the current SQL code for a particular sheet by choosing SQL Inspector from the View menu.
A sheet layout that arranges items in columns. Items appear in the top axis. Use a table to list all information that fits the query criteria, such as sales transactions for the last month. See: crosstab.
The axis of a sheet that runs horizontally along the top of the sheet. See: side axis, axis item.
The result of a calculation that summarizes data in a sheet. Examples of totals are minimum, maximum, average, and sum.

The Cultural Sustainability Institute of the Vermont Folklife Center offers training opportunities for community members, undergraduate, and graduate students, and other professionals interested in developing skills in ethnography, oral history and cultural documentation. Through this training we provide theoretical background and technical skills for participants to ethically and respectfully explore the cultural fabrics of their home communities and the broader communities of which we are a part.
The Cultural Sustainability Institute seeks to support and cultivate collaborative work with communities to document, interpret and present cultural practices so that these practices can inform larger discussions on culture and identity, civil society, planning, and economic development. The goal of the Cultural Sustainability Institute is to inspire and develop local practitioners, community scholars, and new professionals who will engage with their own dynamic cultural practices and the cultural practices of the communities around them.
Cultural Sustainability Institute workshops explore the concepts and methods of cultural sustainability, ethnography and oral history, and teach cultural documentation and media production skills from an ethnographic perspective.

PHILADELPHIA – Buried in the euphoria of the draft and Brian Dawkins' retirement as an Eagle was the running back position.
Eagles head coach Andy Reid indicated the plan going forward was for LeSean McCoy to be used less this season.
Should be interesting to hear how McCoy feels. He's in the market for a new contract, coming off a career and Pro Bowl season with 237 rushes for 1,309 yards and 17 touchdowns, and 48 receptions for 315 yards and three more scores.
The Eagles used a seventh-round draft pick on Bryce Brown, who according to reports basically gave up on his Kansas State teammates last year when the going got tough. And on Sunday the Eagles agreed to terms on a contract with undrafted rookie running back Chris Polk, projected to be a second or third-round choice.
Still part of the plan is Dion Lewis (5-9, 195), who had 23 rushes for 101 yards and one TD as a rookie fifth-round pick out of Pitt.
'With Dion, I would have liked to have gotten him a little more time last year as we went on,' Reid said after the draft. 'I didn't end up doing that and I probably overplayed McCoy a little bit, even though he doesn't want to hear that. As he continues to get older and have the number of reps under his belt that he does, you'll want to back off the number of reps that he does.'
Reid conceded Brown is a huge project. It's safe to say Brown isn't nearly the talent he was hyped as entering Tennessee. After the coaching change, Brown transferred to Kansas State where his brother, Arthur, is a standout linebacker. After sitting out a season, Brown bailed out after just three games, three carries and 16 yards. This was the guy rated ahead of Trent Richardson, the third overall pick in the recently concluded draft, coming out of high school.
'He's had kind of a wild ride here through college football since being the No. 1 running back coming out of high school into college,' Reid said. 'He went to Tennessee and played as a freshman and saw time, legitimate time, and had big plays for them. You're talking about a kid who is an inch under six foot and is 220 pounds who runs a 4.4 forty. You're talking tremendous, tremendous skill here. He catches the ball effortlessly and is a smooth, smooth runner. He has all the talent in the world but it's just a matter of tying things down here.'
Reid figures there's no one more qualified to get the best out of Brown than veteran running backs coach Ted Williams, one of the best in the business. The Eagles always have had standout running backs on Williams' watch, a list that includes Ricky Watters, Duce Staley, Brian Westbrook, Correll Buckhalter and McCoy.
Polk (5-11, 222) rushed for 4,049 yards in his career with Washington, which gave the NFL Corey Dillon.
This past season Polk rushed for 1,488 yards and 12 TD's, averaging 5.1 yards per lug and also contributing 31 receptions and three more scores.
Polk's deal is he's had multiple surgeries on his shoulder, most recently for a torn labrum. There also is an unsubstantiated report that he has a hip issue.
The Eagles agreed to terms with a dozen more undrafted rookies:
- Wide receivers McKay Jacobson (5-11, 199, BYU), Damaris Johnson (5-8, 170, Tulsa), Aaron Pflugrad (5-10, 182, Arizona State), Elvis Akpla (6-1, 190, Montana State) and Darnell Williams (6-2, 195, Louisiana College).
- Fullbacks Emil Igwenagu (6-2, 245, Massachusetts) and Jeremy Stewart (6-1, 218, Stanford).
- Long-snapper Matt Camilli (6-4, 245, UTEP).
- Tight end Chase Ford (6-6, 245, Miami, Fla.)
- Cornerback Cliff Harris (5-11, 180, Oregon).
- Free safety Phillip Thomas (5-11, 198, Syracuse).
- Punter Ryan Tydlacka (6-1, 190, Kentucky).

The two cheerleaders are intended to be foreshadowing as well as give off a creepy vibe by being normal and yet still almost caricatures. When I pitched the Operation to my players I told them I was going for Enemy of the State meets Stepford Wives.
Also, Atwood is too paranoid to leave his motel room, and the others are too paranoid to meet up with him.
Well, I don't blame you for a dry story, I just got to be fair on a writer I enjoy sometimes. Silly kitties ha-ha. The writing process is a craft and sometimes you got to stop and start again and again. Cheerleaders in fiction are usually either creepy or fetishes materials I have notice? Ha-ha. And I love senses of building paranoia. When people start experiencing mental health symptoms in Cthulhu's Mythos games then... fun and funny who knew?

Breeders Cup 2008
This weekend is racing heaven- the Breeders' Cup Races at Santa Anita, two full days of the best horses in the world competing against each other.
I've spent much of the past week scribbling names and figures, trying to choose my bets. Through the MIRACLE of high speed internet, I can watch these races in real time. I also did the totally reckless thing-- signed up with youbet.com. Anyone who bets $50 on the first day gets a free $50 for the second day. Notice I didn't provide an easy link, so you won't fall into the same trap! But hey, it's probably safer than the market, and much more fun.
Wish me luck! Remember the next egg scenes in "Lost in America"?

Defiantly safer than the world market. And probably more fun too.
You've probably seen the Ron Howard video where he recreates his old t.v. shows. Is it just me or was the Happy Days scene filmed at the Hollywood Park parking lot?

Have fun! Love Albert Brooks in the nest egg scene.

won about enough for two lunches-- let's see how today goes. I just read through a list of handicappers choices for yesterday and now I don't feel so bad.
Exquisite final race where the giant filly Zenyatta won the Ladies' Classic. She's raced only nine times and won every single race. She's four years old.
The rider held her at the back until right in front of the grandstands-- it didn't look as if he had enough distance left to pull a win, but win they did.
Today's big race horse is Curlin. I hope he wins. My bets are all in. I was able to watch all the races as a streaming feed on my computer.

Namowal, I saw links to that video last week but didn't click on them and now can't find them. Linda, we're down to appetizers on the lunch plan, or maybe just tea.

When Badgroove.com was presented with an opportunity to meet with one of NASCAR's most controversial drivers and talk to him about the sport that he is so passionate about, we welcomed the opportunity. Little did we know that we would get to take part in one of the coolest sponsor promotions for fans that I have heard of in quite some time. Early Friday, Miller Lite sent some reps out to talk to fans in the campground and gauge their interest in Miller and Coors. The reps promised they would return with some free beer later that evening, but what they didn't know was that the beer would be delivered by the driver of the Miller Lite Dodge, Brad Keselowski. Badgroove got to ride along for the surprise deliveries and it was a blast.
In total we surprised three lucky camp sites and Brad met with numerous fans, some stunned, some amorous, but most impressed and excited to get a chance to talk to the driver, get some free beer and a memory that will surely, last a lifetime.
At the first site, as Brad held court in the center of the make-shift camper quad, one older man, approached and whispered with what can only be described as both awe and disbelief, "Is that Brad Keselowski?" Yes, sir, it is. Things heated up at the second site, when an amorous and adoring lady took a liking to Mr. Keselowski and wanted to show him that "rubbing is racing", but the last site was the ultimate, as fans from other camp sites poured in to see what was going on and get a chance to talk to Brad and take part in this unique experience. The excitement level was off the charts and even as the cart pulled away, fans continued to run over asking for a picture. Brad was more than accommodating to everyone and impressed me with just how personable and open he truly is with the fans.
On the way back from the event, we did indeed get more than a few minutes to talk with Brad and what I learned is that this young man is in the right profession. His love of the sport comes through in every answer he gives, and even more impressive to me was how he described his competitors. Read for yourself and I think you, too, will be impressed by a driver that is sure to make a lasting mark in NASCAR.
Misty: Tell us a little bit about what you thought about doing this [the Miller Lite promotion for the fans]?
Brad: Well, it's fun you know. This is like the grass roots of the sport. People that come out to races and camp out, just hang out and enjoy it as a weekend. Have some fun with the guys, or girls, the family and watch a great race, ya know? Racing has a huge allure to it because of just the campground lifestyle, so it's great to kinda rejoin it and have some fun with it.
Misty: You get to see some fans and be a part of it?
Brad: Absolutely! The fans are the life blood of our sport, without them we are nothing.
Misty: You have the new sponsor, new number this year. We heard Kurt say earlier that for him it's a whole new vibe this season. Do you feel the same way?
Brad: Oh yeah, absolutely! Lots of changes, and I think they are mostly good (chuckle). So hopefully we will continue to pick up on the performance side. I think that is the heart of the sport and uh, from there we will see where it goes, but I feel good about everything and the way we are going, and we will just kinda play it one day at a time.
Misty: Absolutely, and we heard a lot today in the media center about how drivers are surprised at how aggressive it has gotten in just the early part of the season, and early on in the races. What do you attribute that to?
Brad: We are all just ready to race. No testing, no off season, we are all just hungry. The competition level is unprecedented. You know, there are so many drivers, the same age, the same talent level, that the only way you are really going to make a mark in this sport is by being extremely aggressive, because you are not going to out talent anyone. Ya know, you are not going to out work them. You just have to be more aggressive, and make smarter decisions. So that is really, really tough and when people get really aggressive that is when accidents happen.
Misty: We have seen the slogan on the back of the car, "Have At It Brad"…
Brad: Yeah, yeah (laughs) that was cool, wasn't it?
Misty: Yeah, definitely. So it sounds like that is a characteristic you are willing to embrace and run with?
Brad: It's a core, uh, it's part of the core of the sport…the whole boys have it and basically we kinda got away from it the last few years and now we are kinda coming back to it, and I think it is starting to pay dividends and I think the fans are starting to recognize just how fun racing is.
Misty: Yeah, that was my next question; do you think the fans like this a lot more?
Brad: I think so; I like it a lot more. Hell, a couple years ago I wouldn't even watch one of our races and now I watch 'em all. So, that's cool.
Misty: Alright, and last question is what would you want our readers, or NASCAR fans in general, to know about you?
Brad: Oooh… what would I want them to know about me…uh, well…you know basically that the biggest thing and the message that I try to get across whether verbally or non verbally is that I am all in to the sport, I eat it, drink it, sleep it, and leave everything there is on the table on the race track, and uh, that is what I am all about. That's why I love this sport; it has that ability to get that out in me. And sometimes different people might disagree with different things I have done, but they are all done in the name of the sport and trying to honor it and the opportunity that was given to me.
Misty: Alright, I actually lied 'cause I have one more question for you, what's your primary goal this season?
Brad: Just continue to get better, and everything I do, everything we do as a team affects the racing.
Misty: Alright, well thank you very much.
Brad: You got it!

Cadillac CTS/CTS-V Brake Problems
tetedepierre Posts: 62
edited February 2018 in Cadillac
My March build 2004 with 1SC equipment group began having a mild brake problem at about 6000 miles. (I purchased the car in July). It stopped OK no problem there, but the brakes just felt sort of spongy. Eventually I realized that if I exerted enough pressure over time I could force the pedal to the floor.
The service writer tried to convince me that this was normal but finally suggested that I try another CTS and I would see it was the same. So I did and it wasn't. Long story short there is a service bulletin 030525009A which deliniates the proper way to bleed the brakes to eliminate this behavior. They did this and problem solved. Also the windshield wipers were chattering in any condition except a blinding rainstorm a condition I have only encountered on GM cars. They replaced them and chattering has stopped.
One thing I like about the CTS is the dealer is 12 miles 15 minutes from my house and so far has been very good. The closest Lexus dealer is about 75 miles away. Everyone says how good the Lexus is. In my case it could never be good enough.

There are several Cadiilac dealers close by for me to choose from, which is nice. Luckily for me, the Lexus dealer is a half mile down the road from the closest Cadillac dealer, so both are very accessible. I just visited my lexus dealer in fact to buy a set of all weather floor mats. Winter is coming and I'd hate to get thsoe nice carpeted mats all messed up with snow and slush. The dealer had the set specifically made for my GX right in stock.
Regarding the windshield wiper chattering. I encountered the same problem on several Corvettes that I owned and could never figure out what the reason was. I finally did. I had been using a fancy glass cleaner on it specifically designed for auto glass. It must have made the window just a bit less slippery when wet, resulting in the chatter. I began to have the problem on my CTS, and then for the heck of it tried regular Windex for cleaning my windshield, and before long, no more chatter. It was that fancy auto glass cleaner that was causing it all along.0

Wow the posting has really dropped off and is heading in a negative direction0
luxosport Posts: 22I replaced my original Goodyear tires with Yokohama Avids, had them before on my wife's Buick Regal and liked them. What surprised me was upon replacing the tires, we discovered that the front brakes were just about down to nothing after only 23,600 miles. I definitely do not stomp on the brakes....I gradually "take the steam out" of the car as I approach a light or traffic up ahead so this was not what I expected. My mechanic tells me the brakes are softer to reduce stopping distance, consequently they wear down faster. I would advise that for those of you in that range of odometer reading, if you haven't already checked, it would be wise to do so before you take any long road trips. Great car though...I enjoy the ride, the smell, the luxury, the performance and its good looks.0
ayk Posts: 2I have a 2005 3.6L CTS that i purchased about a year ago. At 9300 mi I had brake problems. They replaced the master cylinder. about a month and 2000 mi later, I had problems with the brakes again. They fixed the brakes. I have 2 different problems with radio, which has been replaced twice and now they say that I have a problem with my tires and/or alignment. My front tires are basically bald and I am only at 17,700 mi. Has anyone experienced this many problems with a brand new CTS? Would you trust Cadillac/GM again?0
I also have an '05 CTS. Get ready on the tires! This car chews them up. I am putting a new set on the car this week. I purchased wheels and tires which were new on ebay. These are wheels and tires off an STS. From some of the other posts, I don't think it makes a lot of difference whether you rotate them or not. Mine started the roaring at 15,000 and now I have 26,000. I have not had your other problems but it is in part relective of GM's sloppiness.0
I have a 2003 CTS and there was a recall on the tires back in 2004. I had a Cadillac Service Department replace all 4 tires and they were all put on backwards! I just found this out, 2 years later! Although I know my gas mileage was affected, does anyone know what else this may have affected. It didn't seem to wear the tires down sooner but I am sure that having directional tires put on backwards has an effect on something. I believe the traction control was also effected but I am having alot of issues with this car and just looking for some advice. Thanks.0
I am surprised that you are talking about the roaring. I have an '05 CTS with 26,000 miles. At this point, I have not had any repair problems but it is early yet. At 15,000 miles, my tires were cupped and roaring. I am replacing them the next week. I am going to try the recommended rotation every 5,000 and the alignment every 15,000 and see if the second run is better. It is ridiculous that a car would be designed with this type of alignment problem. I am not sure what the directional issue would do. My son had the same thing as you on a 2005 Civic and it affected the handling. If you have gotten 25,000 miles plus out of your tires, then I would not say you have worn them any more than normal. A guy was in the tire store here with a CTS-V and he has to replace his tires every 12,000. No wonder General Motors is in trouble. The Cadillac dealer is the one who has advised me on the rotation and alignment. He says the car has a very aggressive suspension. Wow!0
The CTS does not have "directional tires". Someone must be pulling your leg.
I have an 03 CTS and had the tires replaced at 18K miles due to a "Goodyear" recall. It was not a Cadillac recall, Cadillac just handled the recall for Goodyear.
Currently my CTS has 32K miles on the replacement tires and the tread looks good for at least another 20K.
The Goodyear tires on my CTS make noise on concrete pavement. Sometimes it depends on how the pavement has been "grooved" for traction and water runoff. They do not make the noise on asphalt pavement.
The CTS has been my wife's daily driver for over four years and has been an exceptional vehicle with only a few small problems, which were taken care of by Cadillac under warranty.
Although retirement limits my spending somewhat, I will buy a next generation CTS when it's time to trade this one in.0
Au Contraire richw5.
The tires on my CTS had arrows showing the direction in which the treads should run. In my book that means they are "directional tires" I am not sure what it means in your book.
As far as the recall on the tires, I never stated that it was a Cadillac recall, I just stated that there was a recall and that a Cadillac Service Center replaced the 4 tires.0
I'm sorry. I didn't realize you had the "special" directional tires.
I did check my CTS and there are no arrows. Infact, the tirerack web page has a picture and I still don't see an arrow, but maybe I need to change my contact lens prescription.
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/BigPic.jsp?sidewall=Blackwall&tireMake=Goodyear&ti- reModel=Eagle+RS-A
Anyway, I'm sorry that you had a problem with your tires. I'd go back to the dealer and complain.0
I have a 2005 CTS, just went to the dealer for my annual NY State inspection, he advised me that I will need new brakes and tires soon. I thought that this was very unusual since the car only has 16,4000 miles and is 24 months old. Regarding the tires for some time I was able to hear a slight whooping sound, I will ask Goodyear if there is any warranty on what I think is premature wear. I did have the tires rotated three times already plus an alignment.
Is this a normal problem on the CTS?0
As I just reported I have 16,000 miles on my 2005 CTS and was astonished to learn that I need brakes and tires.
My Cadillac dealer always tries selling me service I don't think I need, this past time nitrogen filled tires. I tend to be a skeptic now.0
acbkc Posts: 1I have a Cadillac 2006 CTS 2.8L V6 . It has 35,184 miles. The Dealer qouted me $615 to replace front brake pads and rotors. I called around other Brake shops like Tire Kingdom and they qouted me $354. Should I trust that Tire Kingdom qouted me the right parts for my vehicle and that they would be just as good as the dealer parts? I priced the brake pads and rotors from the dealer parts depart at $149 and $300(for both rotors total). The dealer needed my vin# in order to price the brakes. Tire Kingdom only asked for the engine size information. He said he did not need the Vin#. If I went with Tire Kingdom would I get good service from their parts?0
pao Posts: 1,867Tire Kingdom and the like.....get their parts from local autoparts stores....in my area that usually means NAPA....so you arent using Tire Kingdom branded parts..but rather other aftermarket parts.....dealers usually are higher across the board for parts.....labor runs the same I have found...shop around...ask questions....get the best deal.....
recently had a brake service done....fluid flush, two rotors replaced...pads all around and turn the rear rotors.....was just under $500.....for an 04 Chevy Malibu Maxx...at my local mechanic0
What mileage are you getting from both front and rear brake pads on the CTS0
I had a 2006 cts and when it got to about 28,000 miles off and on when I turned into a parking spot and put on the brakes it would make a grinding feel and would be hard to stop. It only did it once in a while. The dealer could find no problem and could not repeat it. The lease ended and I turned it in. NOW my 2007 is doing the same thing. It is only when I am turning sharp and going slow and it has done it turning both ways never going straight. Has anyone else ever had this problem? The dealer says they have never heard of the problem and this is the second cts to do the same thing at about 28,000 miles. They say the brakes and everything look ok. Anybody else have this problem?0
elegantwomen Posts: 1My husbands car is a 2006 CTS, I am not sure of the milage but when i pulled in to a parking place I almost could not stop the car. It was as if my brakes did not work and were grinding.( the dealership has said the brakes are good). I do not drive the car often and this has happened to me 3 times. Two times in a parking lot and once at the stop light. I told my husband about it and he bluffed me off. It has now happened to him. Please reply if more people have the same problem.0
They never fixed my 2006 and the lease ended but they did fix my 2007 after they had it a second time, the first saying the brakes were fine. It is a problem with the wheel spin sensor and the anti lock computer. On the 2007 the dealer could see the problem codes when they checked the cars system. I asked about why they could not find that on the 2006 and they said those codes where new in 2007. Since it was fixed it has not done it again. It was all covered under the 4/50,000.
Its not a fun problem. My wife never drove the 2006 again after it did it and she almost hit a pole and they said there was no problem. She has a BMW now and loves it. Good luck.0
This just happened to my 2007 CTS today. Pulling into parking space at about 3-4 mph and riding the brake. Suddenly the brake pedal goes to the floor and pulsating of ABS comes on and the car freely coasts into the car parked in front of me. Only damage to my license plate as it was so slow. Took it right to dealership, no problems on the way there. They said the computer would only tell them if it was a sensor if they could get it to happen while hooked up to diagnostics. Interesting to see what there conclusion will be. I cannot take the car back if they can't tell me they fixed the problem. Would be a more than a little scary while trying to stop at an intersection or for kids in the crosswalks while picking up/ dropping my kids off.0
This 'sounds' strange. Please keep us posted.0
Hello I am from GM Customer Service. I see that you have the vehicle at the dealership currently. Can you please keep me posted on how it goes with the dealership? Thank you,
Mariah GM Customer Service0
Dealership has stated that "cannot duplicate or identify the problem" and says probably just a one-time-thing. The vehicle is ready to be picked up. I informed them that I will not take possession without a signed statement from the service manager stating that the vehicle is safe for operation relative to this issue. Of course, they will not provide this and offer no other solution. Told them I will not be irresponsible and reckless (as they want me to be). I have called the customer assistance number that they provided, but after 25 minutes on the phone have little faith in that process as well. A "manager" is supposed to call me back.
At this point, it looks as though they may force me into a course of action that I really don't want to pursue. My requests to them have been simple: either fix the car, give me certification that it is safe, or take it back. Fear a long process from here.0
Thanks for keeping us posted. Do I understand that when the brake pedal went to the floor, the ABS pulsated and yet no code was stored?0
Has the dealership fixed the other concerns on the vehicle? What I can do is have an agent look into this for you. In order to do that I will need the VIN, dealership, current mileage, and contact information. You can private message me all the information. Please also include when all the concerns did happen, and how long they have been going on for. Thank you,
Mariah GM Customer Service0
With respect to the stored code - I was told that it would only store the code relative to the ABS being activated if it was involved in a more significant collision. This was probably only 3mph. The only way to tell what it was doing was to have it happen again while they had it hooked up to their computer.0
Well the dealer (Taylor Cadillac) and GM customer assistance have both proved useless on this issue. They both keep repeating "we cannot identify or duplicate the problem, therefore, there is nothing to fix. Yet neither will provide a statement declaring the vehicle to have safely operating brakes. I spoke to an Attorney that told me despite Ohio's tough Consumer protection laws, GM has been refusing to address serious issues hiding behind their recent bankruptcy. My wife and I have purchased/leased 4 new GM vehicles since 2001. We were about to purchase a 5th when this one comes off lease. We will never own another. Good luck rebuilding your brand GM.0
They ran me around on my 2006 and never fixed it. It was leased and I turned it in. On my 2007 they said it was either the ABS antilock unit or the wheel spin sensor. They replace both because
I just drove the car in circles hitting the brakes and it kept doing it about every forth time around. All the ABS problem codes it logged right together showed a problem and that is why they did something.
Try that. I leased a 2010 last week, Red, It's a beautiful car and is still the most car for the money.
We'll see how it goes.
Good Luck.0
We have had the same issue with our CTS (not stopped while turning sharply at very slow speeds - ie, into a parking space) and have been told it is a speed sensor issue.
The left wheel front hub/bearing/speed sensor on our CTS was replaced 4 times with the same issue (only found this out when we went over the records). Finally after the dealer recommended we do it a 5th time we pushed and now it sounds like it has been the computer all along. GM refuses to reimburse us for the 4 previous times or the computer (which failed under 20,000 miles while under warranty) because my in-laws were the original owner. If anyone can offer any ideas or help, would be much appreciated. I have been ridiculously disappointed by my Cadillac experience.
ctsken, sounds like that makes 3 cars at least.0
Hi Mariah,
I am so glad to see you here and I hope you can talk some sense into your company.
We have been dealing with our dealership and GM directly and honestly it seems like they could care less. Despite the fact that one can find multiple reports of brake failure on the CTS at slow speeds in these circumstances and despite the fact that no repair seems to fix it (pointing toward a faulty computer from the beginning), we can't seem to get anyone to take this seriously.
I am paying for a new computer out of my own pocket because GM has no interest in fixing this problem and we are out of warranty, but even that I don't have a guarantee will fix things. But I have reported this to the NHTSA (last time the brakes failed after replacing the hub and having the dealer tell me it should be fine there were children in front of me) and I hope that they can look into this issue before there is a loss of life on the back of GM's inaction. I just want the company to take these complaints more seriously than they seem to at this time.
Thank you.0
I apologize for the concerns that you have with your vehicle. Do you have a case number with GM? If so, what is the case number? Has the issue occurred after the dealership fixed your vehicle? Thank you,
Mariah GM Customer Service.0

For the past several months, the United States has been busy promoting its "pivot" toward the Asia-Pacific and Indo-Pacific regions. Free from conflict in Iraq, and with the winding down of its involvement in Afghanistan apparently accelerating, the U.S. now has more freedom to focus its strategic muscle on this dynamic part of the world. Through pronouncements in the press, and with some carefully crafted diplomatic and strategic jockeying, the United States is gradually reasserting itself in the region.
Such a shift is no surprise to anyone who has been following recent geopolitical events. Militarily, the United States made its intentions clear in the 2007 Maritime Strategy report under the George W. Bush administration. While still engaged in two wars in the Middle East, U.S security planners were still crafting a change of strategy well before the withdrawal of forces in Iraq and Afghanistan had been finalized.
In March 2011, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton all but declared that a new game was afoot. "We are in a competition for influence with China," she told the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee. "Let's put aside the humanitarian, do-good side of what we believe in. Let's just talk straight realpolitik. We are in competition with China."Enjoying this article? Click here to subscribe for full access. Just $5 a month.
Such a shift makes sense for a number of reasons. The Asia-Pacific and Indo-Pacific regions are home to some of the world's fastest growing economies. With America's precarious economic position, gaining access to such markets offers the prospect of more American jobs and a boost to a still sluggish economy.
But it's hard to escape the reality that China is the key reason for the U.S. refocusing. With the United States having spent the better part of the last decade fighting conflicts in the Middle East, China has meanwhile gone to great lengths to enhance its strategic position in East Asia. Beijing has steadily increased its armed forces budget over the last decade. With its advances in anti-access weapons and asymmetrical arms, U.S. forces are, according to one scholar, "On the wrong side of physics." While U.S. military forces outgun their Chinese rivals, recent studies suggest China's military budget will double by 2015, meaning a China-centric strategy makes sense.
Still, it's important not to overstate the speed with which the U.S. pivot – and the associated China concerns – have taken place. The fact is that U.S. -China tensions aren't exactly new. Indeed, seemingly lost in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks is the fact that the United States and China faced off in the Taiwan Strait in 1996 and in 2001 over an aircraft collision near Hainan Island. In The Diplomat last May, Frank Ching correctly pointed out, "Bush himself had already repudiated the Clinton administration's policy of forging a strategic partnership with China, calling Beijing a strategic competitor, rather than a strategic partner." Several days after the return of its EP-3 surveillance crew, the U.S. offered Taiwan a massive arms package. With tensions brewing "shifts in attitudes in both nations seem to be pointing to a showdown."

Support the UCL occupation
November 28, 2010 Leave a comment
The wry protest songs, satirical posters and occasional smiles on the faces of students involved in the occupation of UCL, Jeremy Bentham room, does not take away from the fact that the room is a place of constant work, intense planning, sporadic meetings and tweeting (something which Channel 4 have now congratulated the occupiers on).
One moment there is an English Literature lecturer admitting his flaws as a protestor and his dislike of filmic depictions of Maoists, and then even before you have time to put on a second jumper in the bitter cold, a group has formulated to discuss the next way of attracting media attention and capturing the hearts and minds of the public.
A call is made for Lib Dem members to raise their hands in order to get hold of local contact details, of activists who perhaps feel betrayed by their ministerial representatives, but nobody raises their hand. When I was at university, every left wing protest that took place, be that opposition to fees (somewhat cheaper then than they are now, but no less disgraceful) or the Iraq war, was overrepresented by yellow banners. Now, signatories opposing fee increases such as Nick Clegg are the figures of mockery – and for good reason. This a sign of things to come.
Later on tonight there will be comedy provided by Mark Thomas and Chris Coltrane, but as that takes place banners will be created, and pasta made for hungry revolters. The lights will dim and the cans of cheap booze will come out, Jaffa cakes will be passed around and hashtags will be created, but all the time people congregate to ensure leaflets are created to hand out in the week, that Parliamentary offices are contacted, press releases are sent out on time and solicitor support numbers are added to. While there is room for Dionysus, it is married with work unparallelled in many campaign offices – and more makeshift beds than I've ever seen.
Michael Sayeau who is just finishing up a talk mentions how unique it is walking into the room and seeing laptops on the tables; it is the level of communication that is keeping this occupation successful, the action finally has the support of Aaron Porter (who did quite enough dithering, but decided he supports all non-violent protest) and praise is increasing from the pens of journalists. But the work is unceasing, in fact the positivity creates motivation for the activists. Tomorrow is another day, and the efforts are really paying off.

QNAP's TS-119 Turbo is a 1-bay NAS device that provides iSCSI and media server capabilities in a small package. At first glance this NAS device looks like an external hard drive enclosure with a few add-ons, but the extremely quick throughput speeds and QNAP's redesigned remote administration interface justify this price point.
The TS-119 Turbo NAS device has a sturdy aluminium construction in similar fashion to the Iomega Prestige Desktop Hard Drive. Since the device itself is just an enclosure, you must supply your own 3.5in SATA2 internal hard drive. Inserting the drive is a simple task of pulling the enclosure apart from each end. The drive fits snugly into a metal bracket with screw holes; these aren't necessary to secure the hard drive but they help to prevent vibration and excess noise during drive operation.
Connectivity options include an eSATA port, two USB ports and a Gigabit Ethernet port, all present on the back panel of the TS-119 Turbo NAS device. An additional USB port on the front is accompanied by a one-touch backup button that in our tests automatically backed up data from USB flash drives and external hard drives with no fuss.
QNAP has embedded a 1.2GHz CPU and 512MB of RAM into the TS-119 Turbo NAS device making this the most powerful single-drive external hard drive we have seen to date. This power is put to good use, as the TS-119 NAS device also functions as an iSCSI target, so the drive can be attached to an iSCSI server.
The beefy processor certainly delivers fast throughput speeds. We tested the TS-119 Turbo NAS device with a 750GB Seagate Barracuda ES hard drive by conducting a range of file transfer and media streaming tests. It streamed 720p videos at an average rate of 16.9 megabytes per second (MBps) in Intel's NAS Performance Toolkit high-definition playback tests. Simultaneous playback and backup operations also returned a strong result, performing at an average of 21.3MBps. These benchmark tests are good, but do not match the Western Digital My Book World Edition results.
However, in our real-world file transfer tests the TS-119 Turbo NAS device outperformed the Western Digital My Book World Edition. Transferring 20GB worth of 3-4GB files from a 300GB Western Digital VelociRaptor, the TS-119 Turbo read at an average of 50.6MBps, wrote at 30.3MBps and performed a simultaneous read/write operation at 18.3MBps. Our small file write test — transferring 3GB of 1MB files — was still surprisingly fast. The NAS device wrote to the hard drive at 20.7MBps, read at 39.5MBps and performed a simultaneous read/write at 9.1MBps. For file transfers, the TS-119 Turbo NAS device is faster than other 1-bay NAS devices we have tested to date.
Remote replication and scheduled automatic backup functions are available to secure the data stored on the TS-119 Turbo NAS device. QNAP's Q-RAID 1 function is also available, which provides a software RAID 1 configuration between the internal hard drive and an external drive connected via the USB or eSATA ports. When the external drive is connected, file transfers are mirrored on both devices. If it isn't connected at the time, the NAS device will automatically sync any missing data to the mirrored drive once it's reconnected. This configuration is a one-way system, so you can't use it to automatically backup external hard drive data to the NAS device. We managed to set this function up fairly easily using a Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus over USB 2.0.
A TwonkyMedia-powered UPnP media server is built in to the QNAP TS-119 Turbo NAS, and it can be configured to stream movies, music and photos to DLNA-compatible devices; there is also a built-in iTunes server. The TS-119 NAS device can interface with any of QNAP's surveillance products as a hard drive recording device, and the download station allows you to schedule BitTorrent, FTP and HTTP downloads.
Though the Web interface of QNAP NAS devices is usually a barrier for technical novices, the TS-119 Turbo NAS device's new AJAX-based interface is much easier to use. File browsers have been revamped and the administration page's two-pane layout makes it much easier to navigate. Using this page you can administer user groups and quotas, share folder permissions, volume management, and a host of multimedia and file sharing protocol settings.
Despite its price, the QNAP TS-119 Turbo NAS device is a fantastic way to back up your data and serve small media libraries. The iSCSI and Q-RAID1 features really make this NAS device stand out from the crowd.

C.S. Lewis was born in Belfast, Ireland in 1898 to a middle class family doing what they could to get by. He had an older brother and a dog named Jacksie. When Lewis was only four years old Jacksie was hit by a car.In only a few days, the understandably and clearly disturbed Lewis insisted to his family that they call him Jacksie. His family resisted little Clive's insistence because of how ridiculous it would sound to call their son after the name of the dead dog. Yet, Clive refused to answer to any other name and would go long stretches of time in silence as his parents called to him by the name "Clive." Perhaps to humor him, they compromised and started calling him Jack. As is the way of things, the nickname stuck and soon everybody was calling him Jack by habit.
Jack spent the majority of his childhood and youth at various schools. These times had an incredibly formative role in the development of his personality and identity. He was a good student but suffered from various maladies and illnesses. Though he had been born into the Church of Ireland and baptized as an infant, he soon fell away from the faith at the age of 15. He would later describe himself as a boy furious at God for not existing. There was a deep and passionate hunger for the spiritual within Jack but he found it snuffed and crippled within the confines of the walls of the Church. So, he went looking for it in the occult and in Celtic and Norse mythology. He was unsatisfied in his findings but he was satisfied with the freedom to explore.
It was only after receiving his education at Oxford and becoming a professor, he began having regular conversations with J.R.R. Tolkien and a few other friends at the university. When they made overtures about the Christian faith he brushed them away by insisting that he was an atheist and had no desire to think of the Christian God he had never experienced. They were persistent in their kind conversations and he trusted them as friends--even if he refused them--but he still responded with the words of Lucretius: "Had God designed the world, it would not be a world so frail and faulty as we see." Despite his rejections, his Christian friends continued to love him and socialize with him. He was not simply the target of their evangelistic machinery. Rather, he was their friend and because of their deep love, they could not help but mention the Faith that had changed their lives. Eventually, the persistent God that led Tolkien soon gripped Jack. Jack insisted that he came"kicking and screaming" into the Faith and later wrote about that night: "You must picture me alone in that room in Magdalen, night after night, feeling, whenever my mind lifted even for a second from my work, the steady, unrelenting approach of Him whom I so earnestly desired not to meet. That which I greatly feared had at last come upon me. In the Trinity Term of 1929 I gave in, and admitted that God was God, and knelt and prayed: perhaps, that night, the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England." At the age of thirty-five, Jack found a home in the Faith. At first he only admitted theism but it was not long before he was won over to Christianity.
Lewis' conversion is a story told by many Christians to this day because of the nature of it as the pursuit of a man by an unrelenting and loving God. Jack's life had its share of suffering--from the abuses suffered as a child in boarding schools and his service and wounding in the British army during World War I to the death of his beloved wife (inspiration for perhaps his most beautifully personal book--A Grief Observed) and his own suffering with renal failure at the end. In spite of this suffering and pain, Lewis was never again persuaded to reject the God that had so eagerly pursued him. He wrote many books and articles that have been an inspiration to countless Christians for many years. Jack's life was a life defined by flight and chase.He fled from the God he so desperately wanted. As he did, he looked over his shoulder to make sure God would follow. Eventually, he was caught once again by the God of his mother, father, and childhood.

In the latest cover story for the National Review, writer Kevin D. Williamson argues that, based on "evolutionary biology," Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's wealth, status, and proven ability to produce male offspring should make women more inclined to vote for him over President Barack Obama.
Here are some of the best lines:
- "What do women want? The conventional biological wisdom is that men select mates for fertility, while women select for status...Age is cruel to women, and subordination is cruel to men."
- "Check out the curriculum vitae of one Willard M. Romney: $200 million in the bank (and a hell of a lot more if he didn't give so much away), apex alpha executive, CEO, chairman of the board, governor, bishop, boss of everything he's ever touched."
- "It is a curious scientific fact (explained in evolutionary biology by the Trivers-Willard hypothesis — Willard, notice) that high-status animals tend to have more male offspring than female offspring, which holds true across many species, from red deer to mink to Homo sap."
"Have a gander at that Romney family picture: five sons, zero daughters. Romney has 18 grandchildren, and they exceed a 2:1 ratio of grandsons to granddaughters (13:5). When they go to church at their summer-vacation home, the Romney clan makes up a third of the congregation. He is basically a tribal chieftain."
- "Professor Obama? Two daughters. May as well give the guy a cardigan. And fallopian tubes."
- "From an evolutionary point of view, Mitt Romney should get 100 percent of the female vote. All of it. He should get Michelle Obama's vote. You can insert your own Mormon polygamy joke here, but the ladies do tend to flock to successful executives and entrepreneurs....We don't do harems here, of course, but Romney is exactly the kind of guy who in another time and place would have the option of maintaining one. He's a boss."
- "You have a ton of money? R-MONEY has 200 metric tons of money if he decides to keep it in cash."
- "There are lots of children of rich and powerful men who do not turn out to be 0.01 percent as successful as Mitt Romney has. Meghan McCain's father is a rich guy and a failed presidential candidate, just like Mitt's. Anybody think Meghan McCain's life is going to turn out like Mitt Romney's?"
- "Hillary Rodham Clinton told us that it takes a village, and Mitt Romney showed us how to populate a village with thriving offspring."
- "Look at his fat stacks. Look at that mess of sons and grandchildren. Look at a picture of Ann Romney on her wedding day and that cocky smirk on his face."

There was a dust-up last week between the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and Boeing over the Japan Airlines 787 battery fire in Boston.
NTSB said that during Boeing's March 15 press briefing on the company's comprehensive battery fix for the 787, Boeing executives improperly offered conclusions about the Jan. 7 fire aboard a parked aircraft. The board said such conclusions should be left only to NTSB to express during an ongoing investigation. Also, any technical briefing touching on an incident subject to an ongoing NTSB probe should be cleared in advance with NTSB, the board said.
Beyond Boeing perhaps going outside NTSB's rules for a party to an investigation, I believe the heart of the dispute is a difference of opinion that has been simmering below the surface throughout NTSB's investigation of the Jan. 7 incident. Boeing appears to believe the Boston event was largely contained and did not pose a serious threat to the rest of the aircraft while NTSB believes the fire was on the verge of spreading out of control and did pose a serious threat to the rest of the aircraft.
Boeing VP and 787 chief project engineer Mike Sinnett's slides from the March 15 briefing include one that notes that in the Boston incident "no major airplane structure was damaged" and there was just "minor damage within 20 inches of battery." The fire, he said, was limited to "two three inch flames." Ultimately, all "airplane systems functioned as intended," he said.
Contrast that with NTSB's interim report on the Japan Airlines incident describing how difficult it was for firefighters to put out the lithium ion battery fire, based on direct reports from the firefighters: The fire "appeared to be rekindling" even as measures were being taken to control it. A firefighter "reported that the battery was emitting white smoke, creating heavy smoke conditions," NTSB said, adding that the firefighter "also reported that the battery was hissing loudly and that liquid was flowing down the sides of the battery case." One firefighter "received a burn on his neck when the battery, in his words, 'exploded,'" NTSB said.
Sinnett and NTSB chairman Deborah Hersman also are in conflict on a key point. While he said the 787's systems "functioned as intended" in the Boston incident, she has said the fire event "should not happen as far as the design of the aircraft. There are multiple systems that are in place to prevent [a battery failure from escalating to a serious event]. Those systems did not work."
This split is worth noting as NTSB's probe of the Boston incident continues and Boeing endeavors to convince FAA to lift the 787 grounding.

Today's guest post comes to us from my fellow gringa and telenovelera, Amanda of Spanglish Aventuras.
When I became addicted to Telemundo's Herederos del Monte and encouraged others to check it out – many of you did, and like Amanda, became totally enamoradas – not only with the hermanos del Monte, but with the quality of the production and storyline. It's been excellent Spanish practice and I've picked up a few new catch phrases. (I love saying, "Por Dios Santooo!" and "Válgame" with the same intonation as José. I've also learned a dozen ways to tell someone to go away and leave me alone from Paula.)
Herederos, amongst some of the drama, (and yes, cheesiness) common in telenovelas, touched on some serious issues such as alcoholism, rape, mental illness, and spousal abuse.
Some may say telenovelas are mindless entertainment but as Amanda explains, telenovelas can be educational whether providing a fun way to learn a second language, or by teaching some serious real life lessons.
Let the Truth be Known … on Los Herederos del Monte
by Amanda of Spanglish Aventuras
I mentioned in a previous post that my kids and I are watching a novela, Los Herederos del Monte, as part of our "language learning" this year. As the soap opera is drawing to a close, I have been reflecting on some things, other than Spanish, that we can learn from their story. It all comes down to telling la verdad and not hiding it. That's a good lesson for our lives too, right?
It seems to me that during Los Herederos del Monte, most of the characters have been hiding something from their friends or familia. Many times, by simply sharing the information they were trying to disguise, the character could have avoided much of the angst and agony they endured…but then we would not have had a novela to see, would we?!?
It does seem a good rule for life though, "telling the truth and making life easier". I thought it would be fun to post about the characters and their truths (though oftentimes hidden at first) as a way to provide a summary for this intriguing "language learning tool" which has entertained so many these past few months.
(Warning….if you have not been keeping up with the storyline, details follow!)
Here goes…
Emilio: Although the father of the herederos was kidnapped and left for dead, he did not actually die. He later had plastic surgery on purpose, to not appear as he once did, and with the help of his trusted Modesto, Emilio returned to his familia y pueblo as "Pablo".
Emilio also did not disclose until the end that he knew that Juan was his only biological son and that Paula was not his biological daughter.
It is difficult to keep up with how many amantes Emilio has had throughout his lifetime, but those were secrets too.
Juan: The eldest of the "adopted" sons refused to admit to the other characters at first and even to himself at times later that although at one time (in the beginning) he thought he loved Julieta, he later only stayed with her out of sense of obligation (because at one time she was carrying his child, which she later lost and then Julieta had a terminal medical condition). Juan really only loves Paula.
Julieta: The eldest daughter of Rosa and Miguel hides her true medical condition and tries numerous methods to make Paula (the supposed biological daughter of Emilio) leave "La Arboleda" and Juan's sight. (Remember the scorpions, the shot to make the horse throw Paula, and those chickens let loose in the bedroom?) Julieta has been very sneaky and conniving and there appears to be more coming at the end from her too.
Jose: One of the adopted sons of Emilio finds out early in the show about Paula maybe not being a real "del Monte" AND that Pablo is really Emilio. Jose also later kidnaps Emilio, Adela, and Paula because he wants Emilio to change the paperwork to say Paula does not get any of the inheritance, to leave more for Jose himself!
Pedro: Another of the adopted sons of Emilio refused to admit for quite a while that he had a serious problem with alcohol. It is admirable of this character however that he goes after what he wants whether it be Julieta or Berta!
Gaspar: Yet another of Emilio's adopted sons, who hides for a while that he was the one that left Emilio for dead after the accident (because Gaspar was angry with his father for not having been faithful to Gaspar's mother). Gaspar has an "attraction" for Adela, whom he later blatantly persues meanwhile he abuses his sweet wife Lupe.
Lucas: The youngest adopted son of Emilio refuses to admit to himself that Nacho is a bad guy. He also has trouble accepting that he has a biological family that desires a relationship with him, including Amador.
Consuelo y Rosario: Julieta's younger sisters, the daughters of Rosa and Miguel, do not want to admit that they were each raped by Nacho. Consuelo also does not want to admit to her husband Johnny that the baby she is now carrying could possibly be a result of the rape.
Sofia: Paula's mother and an amante of Emilio, refuses to share with Paula in the beginning that there may be a possibility that she is not actually a "del Monte". Sofia also hides her affair with Miguel for a while.
Lupe: At first, Guadalupe hides her relationship with her then-boyfriend Gaspar from her father, Eluterio. Next she hides details about her mom, (who abandoned her at an early age but later returns) from her father. Finally Lupe hides the abuse that she is receiving from her now-husband, Gaspar.
Sidenote….here's hoping for resolution on the story with Lupe's mom Ines, who disappeared from the pueblo again after reuniting with Lupe.
Beatriz: In the beginning she hides that she suspects that her son Simon's actual father isJose del Monte and not her husband Efrain. Later she refuses to admit to even herself that Jose is abusive.
Miguel: This father of three daughters and husband of Rosa does not admit his affair with Sofia in the beginning. He also hides that he and Rosa later decide to hide medicine in their daughter Rosario's food, at the request of her boyfriend Lucas, who got the pills from the evil Nacho.
If they could just tell the truth…..
Of course there are more characters who were important to the novela and also hid things from the other personajes. Who else would you add to the list? Which story is the most intriguing for you?
Who says language learning can just teach you a language? I say it can teach you life lessons in the process as well!
Here's hoping for a happy resolution in the Gran Finale on Telemundo at 9pm, this Friday night!

Carl Zollo, a well-known Rochester metal sculptor and longtime friend of MAG, died November 6, 2009.
At MAG, Zollo lent his artistic expertise to a number of major fund-raisers, including the 1974 Medieval Faire (a joint venture of the Gallery's Women's Council and the Junior League) and the 1988 "You Take the Cake" celebration of the Gallery's 75th anniversary.
One of his sculptures, from the 1969 Rochester-Finger Lakes Exhibition, was purchased for the Gallery's permanent collection.

Ted Hart bought a Tag Heuer T-shirt on souvenir row to match the watch on his wrist. A few feet away, Bill Sparks eyed Porsche and Ferrari model cars inside a vendor's tent.
DAYTONA BEACH — Ted Hart bought a Tag Heuer T-shirt on souvenir row to match the watch on his wrist. A few feet away, Bill Sparks eyed Porsche and Ferrari model cars inside a vendor's tent.
When it came to souvenir shopping inside Daytona International Speedway's infield Thursday, many of the sports car fans said they'd rather buy Ferrari or Porsche gear than a T-shirt with the face of a racecar driver. The items being sold in the infield include sports car brand T-shirts, model cars, jackets, flags and driver memorabilia.
"I think it all depends on whether you like sports cars or stock cars," Hart said about souvenir preferences.
And that preference might be one of the main distinctions between NASCAR and classic car fans, said Amy Markle of People Kars, who is selling vintage model cars and books this week. While NASCAR fans might be searching for a Dale Earnhardt Jr. or Danica Patrick shirt, sports car fans are more likely to gravitate toward sports car brand apparel or collectible items.
"It's not as driver driven as NASCAR is," Markle said about the types of souvenirs that appeal to Rolex 24 fans.
While Markle and her partner Frank Konisky only sell vintage and sports car memorabilia, several vendors of souvenir row sale souvenirs that cater to NASCAR and classic car fans.
By selling many out-of-print books about sports cars and drivers, Markle said "People Kars," differs from other vendors.
"This is not something you can find on Amazon.com," she said.
Ohio artist Steve Petrosky and his partner Roger Warrick found their niche selling paintings and prints of classic and model cars. The artists plan to paint during the race to capture the cars in motion.
Petrosky said he travels to 15 races a year, and none of them are NASCAR. That's because his customers are looking for vintage sports and road-race cars. The Rolex 24 is where his sales are highest, especially last year during the 50th anniversary of the race, he said. But selling art is also a way for the artists to enjoy their favorite pasttime.
"We are both race fans and love coming to races," Petrosky said. "We get to meet a lot of people and we enjoy the interaction."
Bill Sparks, 75, and his wife, Juanita, 71, traveled from North Carolina to watch the Rolex 24 at Daytona. They had both bought Daytona International Speedway jackets and were looking for a model car for their grandson.
"We have a house full of model cars," Juanita said. "We love them that much."
