Whether you are a manufacturer, entrepreneur, industrial designer, prototyper/modeler, marketer, agency, printer, retailer, sign manufacturer, exhibit fabricator or architect, MyPerfectColor will help you nail the P 34-9 C color and produce outstanding results.
MyPerfectColor matches the Pantone P 34-9 C color based on Pantone color publications. The P 34-9 C color shown on this website are computer video simulations of the PANTONE P 34-9 C Color and may not match PANTONE®-identified Color standards. Refer to current PANTONE Publications to obtain accurate color.
The Pantone P 34-9 C color may vary from the PANTONE Color Standards based on lighting conditions, angle of view and/or due to differences in pigments, manufacturing process, substrate and/or limitations in the color capability of the paint. Refer to current PANTONE Publications to obtain accurate color.

Unfortunately, no.
Some manufacturers specify Pantone colors as touch up for their products, but Pantone does not work well as a proxy for a touch-up solution (for a litany of reasons such as it doesn't include sheen and Pantone color tolerances are not tight enough for touch up). When we match Pantone colors we are matching to a swatch in a Pantone book - not to your product.
The only way we can provide a touch-up solution for your product is for you send us a part. We would use the part to create a touch-up grade match. Unfortunately, there isn't an effective way to 'spec' the color well enough to produce a touch up without the part.

To make spray paint matched to Pantone P 34-9 C. MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish in any color in any sheen. It sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.
The 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat. Keep in mind that it is difficult to gauge how much spray you'll need as it is highly dependent on how it is applied. It is better to have too much than run short.
While MyPerfectColor can provide P 34-9 C in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, especially for a color collection like Pantone which is designed for bright colors and inks.

What three-letter Internet acronym best fits the bizarre news out of Iraq and Afghanistan that militants there have been intercepting US Predator drone video feeds using laptops and a $30 piece of Russian software: LOL, WTF, or OMG?
Actually, all three are appropriate for something this farcical, horrible, and brain-numbing. The reason that the transmissions could be picked up easily by a cheap satellite recording program? They were broadcast in the clear between the drone and ground control. That's right—no encryption was used.
Perhaps, you might be thinking to yourself in a mental bid to make the military seem competent here, no one could have suspected this would happen. But they did suspect it, because it had been happening for a decade already. The Wall Street Journal, which broke the story, included this tidbit in its report: "The potential drone vulnerability lies in an unencrypted downlink between the unmanned craft and ground control. The US government has known about the flaw since the US campaign in Bosnia in the 1990s, current and former officials said. But the Pentagon assumed local adversaries wouldn't know how to exploit it, the officials said."
After finding various laptops containing hours of recorded drone footage, the military has at last moved to encrypt the downlink between the drone and ground control, but there are problems. Not with encryption technology, which is robust, but with the fact the military 1) did not use encryption at the beginning and retrofitting is hard, and 2) the Predator's maker uses some proprietary communications gear, so off-the-shelf encryption tools don't all work.
The sad but inevitable comparison has to be drawn here with consumer electronics. Blu-ray discs, which use the AACS control scheme, feature a new DRM scheme of bewildering complexity in an attempt to thwart pirates.
But US drones, which spy on militants and rain down death from a distance, have none. The mind boggles, as it seems like the situation should be totally reversed: no encryption on legally-purchased content, more encryption on devices designed to watch and kill human beings.

All packed and ready to go! I think. First stop Scotland for a couple of short days. Then we will head over to Ireland and backroad our way to Belle Isle Cookery School for the 4-day workshop I am teaching there. To say that I am excited would be the understatement of the year. I have not been to that part of the world yet.
House sitter all set up. Dog sitter already thrown in the middle of a creek chase by Bailey. Raincoats. Rain boots. Layers. Maps and big giddy smiles. Yep. I think we are about ready. Oh and Elliott, our 6 year old beta fish (so not joking) also found a temporary pad with friends, becoming their kids' first official visiting pet. Everyone is pretty much set.
It's been such a long time we went abroad together. And the first real time off we have in a completely uncommon, unknown and foreign (to us) location. Pretty cool. We have been pouring over Google Earth for so many months checking the scenery and trying to figure out where his ancestors had lived that I am about as ready as can be to check things out.
I have no idea of what we will actually find, see and who we will end up meeting along the way. And we are completely open to that. I have learned to just learn and get familiar with things as much as possible and let thing unfold the way they do. There will always be something to come out of it, an improvement to be made, a lesson to be learned, another place to discover.
That's pretty much the motus operandi I have had these last few days as I was trying to empty out the fridge before our departure. Grab a few ingredients and spices agreeing with our taste buds, toss them up together and see where that gets us. Adjust attitude seasoning and keep going until dinner comes together.
And well…With an small peleton of heirloom tomates leading the race (yes, I may have the Tour De France playing in the background of my studio), we ended up with Heirloom Tomato and Rosemary Tarts one evening, accompanied by a few big spoonfuls of panzanella salad. And yes, tarts again. One of the easiest thing to do to clean out a fridge before a trip.
There are as many ways to make a tomato tart as there are cooks out there. And wait until you taste the quintessential Southern tomato pie. Oh dear. And well, there are as many versions of the panzanella salad as there are people having an opinion about it. That diversity is one of the many reasons why I love reading stories and anecdotes behind recipes. It's also one of the reasons that make me grab my camera to make an imprint of the moment and tell another story. Or the same one, with a different look.
Traveling is very much the same. You see the same things as the many people around you. With a different look. For all of us.
Have a fantastic weekend! I will try to post some pics and updates as the trip unfolds but if you want first hand thoughts and pictures, best is to read my Twitter feed, @helenedujardin or check my Instagram shots at helenedujardin.

Heirloom Tomatoes Tartlets:
Makes eight 4-inch tartlets or one regular tart
For the crust:
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour or Jeanne's all purpose gluten free mix
1 stick (115g) unsalted butter, kept very cold
1/4 teaspoon of salt
2-3 tablespoons ice cold water
For the filling:
6 to 8 heirloom tomatoes
2 eggs
1 cup milk
2 teaspoon freshly chopped rosemary
pinch of salt and pepper
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Prepare the crust: In the bowl of a food processor, (or follow the same instructions if doing by hand), pulse together the flour until incorporated. Add the butter and pulse until the butter resembles small peas and is evenly incorporated. Add the salt and pulse on more time. Gradually, stream in the cold water until the flour just comes together. Turn the mixture out onto your work surface and form into a 2-inch thick, round disk. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes (or overnight) before rolling out.
Flour your working surface with tapioca flour (if gluten free) or regular flour and start rolling out the dough to about 1/4-inch thick adding more flour as you feel the dough starts to stick. You can also roll it out in between two sheets of plastic wrap of parchment paper, especially with working with the gluten free version. Cut eight 5-inch rounds of dough and place them inside eight 3 to 4-inch tartlet pans. Place a small piece of parchment paper inside each of them, fill with dried beans and refrigerate for another 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350F (both convection and not) and position a rack in the middle.
Place the tart shells on a baking sheet and bake the tartlets for about 15 minutes (with the dried beans inside). Remove from the oven, let cool for 5 to 10 minutes and remove the beans and parchment paper.
Prepare filling:
Slice the tomatoes and lay them flat on a couple of sheets of paper towels to soak up some of their juices.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the milk until well incorporated. Add the rosemary, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Whisk again.
Divide the mixture in between all the cooled tart shells and arrange the tomato slices over the top.
Bake at 350F for about 20 to 30 minutes or until the center is barely set.
Panzanella Salad:
Not so much a recipe but more a big toss up according to your own appetite.
( for recipes, here is a good start)
Mine goes something like this:
some leftover bread
plenty of tomatoes
some anchovies
some olives
lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper
freshly chopped basil
fresh arugula
fresh minced garlic
Toss all the ingredients together and let sit for about an hour so the bread gets a good soaking…

Thirty days after his regime signs the international Chemical Weapons Convention that bans their use he will start handing over data about Syria's stockpile, President Bashar Assad told a Russian TV channel Thursday.
But Assad also said, according to the RIA Novoti new agency, that Syria will only fully fulfill its promise to hand over such weapons if the U.S. stops talking about possible military action against his regime and "ceases arm deliveries to terrorists."
"It's a bilateral process aimed, first of all, at making the U.S. stop pursuing its policy of threats against Syria," Assad said, according to Russia's RT.com.
By "terrorists," Assad means the rebel fighters battling his forces. As we said earlier, The Washington Post is reporting that "the CIA has begun delivering weapons to rebels in Syria." The commander of the Free Syrian Army, however, told NPR on Thursday that his fighters have not received any arms from the U.S.
Whether Assad's timetable and conditions will be acceptable to the Obama administration, of course, isn't yet known. Secretary of State John Kerry is in Geneva today to negotiate with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrof.
Update at 5:07 p.m. ET. 'A Full Member Of The Convention?':
At the United Nations in New York, the Syrian ambassador said Syria had submitted and the U.N. had accepted the documents needed for the country to join the Chemical Weapons Convention, which compels signatories to destroy its chemical weapons stock.
"Legally speaking Syria has become, starting today, a full member of the convention," Ambassador Bashar Jaafari said.
A little after 5 p.m. ET., the United Nations said it received a letter from Syria saying Syrian President Bashar Assad had signed a "legislative decree providing for the accession of Syria to the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction of 1992."
The statement from the spokesperson for the Secretary-General continued:
"In their letter, the Syrian authorities have expressed their commitment to observe the obligations entailed by the Convention even before its entry into force for Syria.
"The Secretary-General welcomes this development, noting that, as depository of the Convention, he has long called for universal accession to the Chemical Weapons Convention. Given recent events, he hopes that the current talks in Geneva will lead to speedy agreement on a way forward which will be endorsed and assisted by the international community."
Update at 1:52 p.m. ET. Kerry Rejects Timetable:
Right off the bat, during the first press conference Kerry held in Geneva, he rejected the Syrian timetable.
He said that after what the Syrian regime has done, there is "nothing standard" about this process.
"The words of the Syrian regime in our judgement are simply not enough," Kerry said.
Standing alongside Lavrof, Kerry said that the United States is serious about this proposal, even if the technical difficulties of removing chemical weapons during a civil war are untested.
"We do believe there is a way to get this done," Kerry said, right after giving Lavrof a warning that "this is not a game."
When it was Lavrof's turn for a statement, he declined, saying President Vladimir Putin's piece in The New York Times speaks for itself.
Our original post — 'U.S. Threats' Did Not Influence His Decision, Assad Says:
Though the U.S. and its allies say the threat of military force has led Syrian President Bashar Assad to endorse a Russian plan for ceding control of his chemical weapons, the Syrian leader says "U.S. threats did not influence the decision."
Russia's RT.com newssite says Assad has told another Russian news channel that "Syria is handing over its chemical weapons under international supervision because of Russia," not any pressure brought by the Obama administration's talk of missile strikes.
We reported earlier on Secretary of State John Kerry's arrival in Geneva for talks with his Russian counterpart about the potential diplomatic solution to the chemical weapons crisis. As we wrote, the commander of the Free Syrian Army has told NPR that "the Russian initiative is just a lie."

Three Princeton University students with diverse interests in computer networks, machine learning and the basic physical processes of the brain were among 15 recipients of this year's Hertz Fellowship for graduate studies in the sciences.
The students — Amy Ousterhout and Aman Sinha, seniors, and Daniel Strouse, a first-year graduate student in physics — were selected from among 700 applicants nationwide, the Fannie and John Hertz Foundation said. The fellowship, which provides support for up to five years, is valued at $250,000 and is awarded for studies in the applied physical, biological and engineering sciences.
Ousterhout, a computer science major from Palo Alto, Calif., began to pursue her interest in computer networks in her junior year after hearing of the widespread communications blockade instituted by the Egyptian government in response to the Arab Spring social movement. She developed a system that relies on short-range telecommunications methods to circumvent widespread censorship. Ousterhout built and tested a small prototype system, working with Jennifer Rexford, the Gordon Y.S. Wu Professor in Engineering, and Michael Freedman, an assistant professor of computer science.
The system uses Bluetooth or Wifi devices to quickly disseminate short "tweet-like" messages among users. Because the communications do not use conventional cellular networks or the Internet, they are far more difficult to block.
"The goal was to create an application that enabled communication without depending on any centralized infrastructure," Ousterhout said.
Ousterhout, who has also been offered a fellowship by the National Science Foundation, plans to pursue a Ph.D. in computer science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, continuing her work in networks and distributed communications. A member of the engineering honor society Tau Beta Pi, she served as co-president of Princeton Women in Computer Science, executive web editor for The Daily Princetonian student newspaper, and as a leader for Princeton's Outdoor Action program.
Two years ago, Ousterhout's sister, Kay, a member of the Class of 2011, also received a Hertz Fellowship and is currently studying at the University of California-Berkeley.
Sinha, a mechanical and aerospace engineering major from Ivyland, Pa., also was named one of this year's Churchill Scholars. After spending a year studying at the University of Cambridge as a Churchill Scholar, he plans to pursue a doctorate in electrical engineering at Stanford University.
At Princeton, Sinha has worked with Naomi Leonard, the Edwin S. Wilsey Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, to study the ways that large groups of individual actors come together to make complex decisions. He explores the techniques that groups as disparate as flocks of birds or managers of power districts on an electric grid use to make collective decisions. The methods become particularly interesting, he said, when information among members is limited and the degree of uncertainty about the correct solution is high.
"The problem I am looking at, specifically, is how a group comes to a consensus," he said.
Sinha, who will be the valedictorian for the Class of 2013 at Commencement, has won several academic awards as an undergraduate. Among others, he was the recipient of the George B. Wood Legacy Sophomore Prize, given to a junior for outstanding academic accomplishment the previous year, and the Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship, which is given to outstanding undergraduates concentrating in mathematics, the natural sciences and engineering.
Strouse, from Newark, Del., is concentrating in theoretical biophysics for his doctorate in physics.
"I use tools from mathematics and physics to study the computations brains do and why," Strouse said.
He received his bachelor's degree from the University of Southern California (USC). He was a recipient of the Churchill Scholarship and spent a year studying in Cambridge before coming to Princeton at the start of this academic year to work with William Bialek, the John Archibald Wheeler/Battelle Professor in Physics and the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics.
Strouse said his goal is to uncover the general rules that undergird biology in the same way that the laws of classical and quantum mechanics, electrodynamics and thermodynamics frame modern physics.
"We are searching for basic principles," he said. "How are biological systems designed, and why are they this way?"
Strouse has worked on the role that a neuron's dendrites play in learning and computation, how olfactory information is represented in the brains of mice, and how to optimize neural networks to respond quickly to new stimuli. His current work at Princeton is shifting more toward studying how animals make predictions and decisions in the face of uncertainty.
Strouse is a recipient of the U.S. Department of Energy's Computational Sciences Graduate Fellowship.

With its glittering spire firmly attached, the new World Trade Center became the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere on Friday morning. The building at One World Trade Center now stands at 1,776 feet.
"It will give a tremendous indication to people around the entire region, and the world, that we're back and better than ever," Steven Plate, the head of construction at the World Trade Center, said last week when the spire was hauled to the top of the building.
Measuring 408 feet tall and weighing 758 tons, the spire includes a bright light at its tip that is sure to become a new landmark for lower Manhattan. While parts of the spire were assembled on the World Trade Center's roof last week, the final sections were bolted into place early Friday.
The building rose near the site of the old World Trade Center, whose twin towers were destroyed in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and other construction at the site is underway. The new building is the result of a collaboration between the Durst Organization and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
"The tower is slated to open for business in 2014," reports NBC New York. "Tenants include the magazine publisher Conde Nast, the government's General Services Administration and Vantone Holdings China Center, which will provide business space for international companies."
At 1,776 feet, the building is the tallest in America — provided those who make those designations see Friday's addition as a spire, and not as an antenna. The structure will broadcast TV and radio signals.
The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat has several criteria for measuring the height of buildings, with the first among them being "height to architectural top" — something that doesn't include "antennae, signage, flag poles or other functional-technical equipment."
The council is based in Chicago, home of the Willis Tower (the former Sears Tower), which stands at 1,451 feet, and the Trump International Center, at 1,389 feet.
As Chicago Real Estate Daily reports, a group of architects, engineers, and builders will convene in November to decide the official status of the World Trade Center's spire — and its standing among tall buildings.
You can explore the world's tallest buildings at the Skyscraper Center's website.

Tenormin is used to treat angina (chest pain) and hypertension (high blood pressure). Tenormin is used for decreasing death due to heart problems after a heart attack. Tenormin is a beta-blocker. Exactly how Tenormin works to decrease heart problems after a heart attack is not known.
Use Tenormin as directed by your doctor.
- Do not take Tenormin in larger amounts or for longer than recommended by your doctor.
- Take Tenormin with a full glass of water.
- Take Tenormin at the same time every day.
- Do not skip doses or stop taking Tenormin without first talking to your doctor. Stopping suddenly may make your condition worse.
- To be sure this medication is helping your condition, your blood pressure will need to be checked on a regular basis. It is important that you not miss any scheduled visits to your doctor.
- If you need to have any type of surgery, tell the surgeon that you are using Tenormin. You may need to briefly stop using Tenormin before having surgery.
- Tenormin is only part of a complete program of treatment for hypertension that may also include diet, exercise, and weight control. Follow your diet, medication, and exercise routines very closely if you are being treated for hypertension.
- Hypertension often has no symptoms, so you may not even feel that you have high blood pressure. Continue using this medicine as directed, even if you feel well. You may need to use blood pressure medication for the rest of your life.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Tenormin.
Store Tenormin at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep Tenormin out of the reach of children and away from pets.
Active Ingredient: Atenolol.

A Question About Fasting. 1In the fourth year of Darius the king, the word of the LORD came to Zechariah, on the fourth day of the ninth month, Kislev.* 2Bethelsarezer sent Regem-melech and his men to implore the favor of the LORD 3and to ask the priests of the house of the LORD of hosts, and the prophets, "Must I weep and abstain in the fifth month* as I have been doing these many years?" 4Then the word of the LORD of hosts came to me: 5Say to all the people of the land and to the priests: When you fasted and lamented in the fifth and in the seventh month* these seventy years, was it really for me that you fasted?a 6When you were eating and drinking, was it not for yourselves that you ate and for yourselves that you drank?
7Are these not the words which the LORD proclaimed through the earlier prophets,* when Jerusalem and its surrounding cities were inhabited and secure, when the Negeb and the Shephelah were inhabited? 8The word of the LORD came to Zechariah: 9Thus says the LORD of hosts: Judge with true justice, and show kindness and compassion toward each other.b 10Do not oppress the widow or the orphan, the resident alien or the poor;* do not plot evil against one another in your hearts.c 11But they refused to listen; they stubbornly turned their backs and stopped their ears so as not to hear.d 12And they made their hearts as hard as diamonde so as not to hear the instruction and the words that the LORD of hosts had sent by his spirit through the earlier prophets. So great anger came from the LORD of hosts: 13Just as when I called out and they did not listen, so they will call out and I will not listen, says the LORD of hosts. 14And I will scatter them among all the nations that they do not know.f So the land was left desolate behind them with no one moving about, and they made a pleasant land into a wasteland.
* [7:1] The fourth year of Darius…the ninth month, Kislev: December 7, 518 B.C., the last chronological heading in Zechariah.
* [7:3] Weep…fifth month: a mourning ritual commemorating the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple on the seventh day of the fifth month in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign (ca. 587/586 B.C.; see 2 Kgs 25:8).
* [7:5] Seventh month: the time of a fast in memory of the murder of Gedaliah, the governor installed by the Babylonians after they conquered Jerusalem (see 2 Kgs 25:25; Jer 41:1–3). Seventy years: see note on 1:12.
* [7:7, 12] Earlier prophets: see note on 1:4.
* [7:10] Widow…orphan…resident alien…poor: four categories of socially and economically marginalized persons. Concern for their well-being is commanded in both pentateuchal and prophetic literature.

President Obama has commuted the sentences of eight people convicted of drug crimes, saying their terms were unusually harsh due to a system that treated crack cocaine as a more serious offense than powder cocaine.
The president also pardoned 13 others convicted of various other offenses.
The commutations come after the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010, which is aimed at reducing disparities in the way the law treats cocaine possession.
"If they had been sentenced under the current law, many of them would have already served their time and paid their debt to society," Obama said in a written statement.
"Instead, because of a disparity in the law that is now recognized as unjust, they remain in prison, separated from their families and their communities, at a cost of millions of taxpayer dollars each year."
Reuters says:
"The eight have each served more than 15 years in prison. A White House official said their sentences had been unduly harsh and helped contribute to 'an expensive and ineffective overcrowding of our prisons.' "
The Associated Press writes:
"Previously, Obama had commuted only one sentence in the five years of his presidency, involving another drug case. He previously had pardoned 39 people. A pardon forgives a crime and wipes out the conviction, while a commutation leaves the conviction but ends the punishment.
"In August, Attorney General Eric Holder announced a major shift in federal sentencing policies, targeting long mandatory terms that he said have flooded the nation's prisons with low-level drug offenders and diverted crime-fighting dollars that could be far better spent."

Homer Bell was 54 years old when he killed himself in April in a very public way — he laid down his head in front of a stopped bus in his hometown of Hartford, Conn. It was the last act in a life filled with struggle, as Bell and his family endured his schizophrenia.
At a time when there are calls to strengthen the mental health system, Bell's story shows how hard coping with mental illness can be.
Harold Schwartz, the psychiatrist in chief for Hartford Hospital's Institute of Living, describes some of the difficulties for a family: It's hard to get help, provide a home, and give the right kind of support. Bell's struggle to deal with the frightening voices in his head led to outbursts of anger, and even some run-ins with the police.
Rosalind Scott, Bell's mother, says he was living on the streets and had gone to a hospital for help. In the days after his release, he showed up repeatedly on her porch. One night she let him into the hallway to get warm. But it was hard to let him in farther. Homer could be loud, he could be angry, he could be paranoid. His illness had exhausted her.
One or two nights later when Homer came back, his mother was tired and, wanting relief, she didn't let him in. She explains why:
Laura Bell, Homer's sister, jumps in to comfort her mother. "It wasn't your fault," she tells her.
After the death and the funeral, Scott went through her voice mails. She had dozens. And then she heard Homer's voice and stopped. "That's when he apologized to the family," she says.
Scott says she has a particular regret.
Psychiatrist Schwartz has been a part of the conversation about Connecticut's mental health system that has gained new urgency since the school shootings in Newtown. He says a lot of attention is now being paid to identifying young people with emotional struggles who need help, but when it comes to helping people like Bell — the homeless, chronically mentally ill adult living in the community — he sees less movement.
And in some cases wisdom, patience and compassion aren't enough. He says sometimes suicidal intent is a terminal disease.
It's a reality, Schwartz says, that for Bell's family — and for many others — can be hard to hear.

45,000 Mile Service
Greulich's Automotive Repair is the leading 45,000 mile service shop in Scottsdale, AZ, Cave Creek, AZ, and Phoenix, AZ. We pride ourselves on ensuring that your vehicle is running at its optimal performance level. The safety of you and your family is our top priority. Due to the conditions in the Cave Creek, AZ area it is important that the Preventative Maintenance be performed at the recommended level. At the 45,000 Mile Service Interval the Vehicle Manufacturers require certain preventative maintenance evaluations. Our trained mechanics focus on only performing the services and repairs your vehicle requires, the safety of you and your family, keeping your vehicle running at its top performance, and ensuring that your factory warranty stays intact. We are able to bring you the highest level of service and properly maintain your vehicle at a fraction of what a dealer would charge. Our 45,000 Mile Service Interval includes the following: Before every 45,000 mile service we perform a Quality Assurance Road Test to ensure that your vehicle is handling and performing at its optimal level. If our Mechanics hear or feel anything out of the ordinary they will be able to look at your vehicle more in depth once they place it on the lift. If our Mechanics do not find what they heard or felt during the 45,000 Service Interval Inspection list we will inform you what we experienced during the Road Test to inquire if you would prefer further Diagnostics. Our 45,000 mile Service Interval consist of the following services:
Engine Coolant – Your vehicle's engine coolant is one of the vital fluids that are important to maintaining the engine. Most vehicles require that the Engine Coolant be replaced every 30,000 miles. Vehicle Manufacturers consider Cave Creek, AZ to be rated as a harsh driving area. Manufacturers are upgrading to longer lasting Engine Coolant. Even though they are starting to install Extended Life Coolant it is still extremely important to periodically check on the condition and level of the Engine Coolant. Even Extended Life Coolant breaks down over time. Ensuring that your vehicle's Coolant System is maintained at its proper level and free from leaks will make the Coolant last longer and perform at its proper level.
Replace Engine Oil and Filter – Due to the climate in the Cave Creek, AZ area Vehicle Manufacturers consider us to be in harsh driving conditions. They require more frequent Oil and Filter changes. Routinely changing your vehicle's engine oil per the manufacture's guidelines is an essential part of properly maintaining your vehicle and keeping the warranty intact. The oil keeps the internal components of the engine lubricated and the filter collects any debris preventing it from damage. This is an essential routine maintenance item to ensure performance and longevity of your vehicle.
Steering Linkage and Boots – We inspect the Linkage and Boots in your Steering. Excessive play in your steering can be dangerous. It can inhibit the speed of your response in an emergency situation and cause issues like excessive tire wear.
Drive Shaft Boots – We ensure that your vehicles Boots are properly sealed, do not have any damage or tears, and are not dry rotted. This ensures that the drive shafts stay properly lubricated and can save an expensive repair of replacing the Drive Shaft.
Ball Joints and Dust Covers – Excessive play from the Ball Joints can cause excessive tire wear, poor performance and handling. If not caught early enough can result in failure, cause further suspension damage and leave you stranded on the side of the road. Ensuring that there is no excessive play from the suspension can save the cost of a very expensive repair and prevent a break down.
Brake Linkage/Drums/Pads/Disc – It is extremely important to keep your vehicle running at its top performance when driving in the Cave Creek, AZ area and wherever the road takes you, for the safety of you and your family. A properly working Braking System is essential. Routine and thorough inspections of your braking system will ensure that you are able to safely stop your vehicle each and every time. Brake failures also can cost a lot of money to repair. A brake pad that is getting too low and not able to make it to the next Service Interval if not caught can wear into your Rotor and become a very expensive repair.
Reset Maintenance Reminder – If your vehicle is equipped with a Maintenance Reminder System we will reset that during your service to ensure you are properly notified for your next Service Interval.
Cabin Air Filter and Engine Air Filters – Air Filters are sometimes able to be cleaned. They also need to be replaced periodically. The Engine Air filter keeps debris out of the engine and ensures proper air intake through your engine. Depending where you live in the Cave Creek, AZ area your Air Filter might need to be replaced more frequently. If your Engine Air Filter is clogged it will dramatically reduce the engine's performance and fuel mileage. Cabin Air Filters are also important to maintain. This filters the air in the passenger compartment. Keeping the Cabin Air filter clean is important to ensure that you and your family are breathing clean air. Failure to keep this clean and debris free can also cause stress on the vehicle ventilation system. This can cause a foul smell and undue stress to the vehicles blower motor and ventilation system.
Chassis Bolts and Nuts – During the 15,000 Mile Service Interval we thoroughly inspect the chassis and suspension for irregular wear and loose components. Most vehicles are driven 15,000 miles on average so this is an important safety check that is performed once a year. Preventative Maintenance saves you money because potential issues are caught early and keeps repairs at a minimum.
Tire Inspection, Rotation, and Inflation – The roads in the Scottsdale, AZ area sometimes are not always in the best condition. Proper Tire inflation is vital for optimal handling and safety. During each Service Interval our Mechanics will inspect your tires to ensure proper placement for the best performance and longevity of your tires. Tire rotations are performed periodically so that all four tires wear evenly. If you do not rotate your tires they will wear unevenly and will require replacement more frequently. Proper inflation of your tires is essential for proper wear and performance. Properly inflated tires also improve fuel mileage.
Exhaust Pipes and Mountings – Leaks in the Exhaust System can not only be noisy but also dangerous. Your Vehicles Exhaust System has dangerous fumes than need to be properly expelled away from the passenger compartment. Leaks or restrictions in the Vehicles Exhaust System can also cause performance problems. An Exhaust System that is not operating as designed can dramatically reduce your power from the engine and restrict your fuel economy. Periodic inspections of manifolds, seals, gaskets, catalytic convertors, and pipes will ensure the safety of you and your family and keep your vehicle running as designed.
There is more to servicing your vehicle than just changing your oil and rotating your tires. Proper Preventative Maintenance will save you money and also your time. We are part of the Cave Creek, AZ community. If you are in the Scottsdale, AZ, Cave Creek, AZ, or Phoenix, AZ areas and looking for an honest and dependable mechanic please contact us. We value your time, save you money, and gets you back on the road as quickly and safely as possible. Call us at (480) 751-3553 to setup a convenient appointment to ensure the safety and reliability of your vehicle.

This is a cut 'n paste job from an email (<022501c1c529$f63a9550$7f00000a@KOJ>) and only reformatted for better readability. It's not up to date but may be a good start for further research.
There are three basic filter types (each of these is actually broken down into two categories, but that comes later).
, but internal redirects and sub-requests can change
the content without ending the request. (AP_FTYPE_RESOURCE
)It is important to make the distinction between a protocol and a resource filter. A resource filter is tied to a specific resource, it may also be tied to header information, but the main binding is to a resource. If you are writing a filter and you want to know if it is resource or protocol, the correct question to ask is: "Can this filter be removed if the request is redirected to a different resource?" If the answer is yes, then it is a resource filter. If it is no, then it is most likely a protocol or connection filter. I won't go into connection filters, because they seem to be well understood. With this definition, a few examples might help:
The further breakdown of each category into two more filter types is
strictly for ordering. We could remove it, and only allow for one
filter type, but the order would tend to be wrong, and we would need to
hack things to make it work. Currently, the RESOURCE
only have one filter type, but that should change.
This is actually rather simple in theory, but the code is complex. First of all, it is important that everybody realize that there are three filter lists for each request, but they are all concatenated together:
(corresponds to RESOURCE)r->proto_output_filters
(corresponds to PROTOCOL)r->connection->output_filters
(corresponds to CONNECTION)The problem previously, was that we used a singly linked list to create the filter stack, and we
started from the "correct" location. This means that if I had a
filter on the stack, and I added a
filter, the CONNECTION
filter would
be ignored. This should make sense, because we would insert the connection
filter at the top of the c->output_filters
list, but the end
of r->output_filters
pointed to the filter that used to be
at the front of c->output_filters
. This is obviously wrong.
The new insertion code uses a doubly linked list. This has the advantage
that we never lose a filter that has been inserted. Unfortunately, it comes
with a separate set of headaches.
The problem is that we have two different cases were we use subrequests. The first is to insert more data into a response. The second is to replace the existing response with an internal redirect. These are two different cases and need to be treated as such.
In the first case, we are creating the subrequest from within a handler
or filter. This means that the next filter should be passed to
function, and the last resource filter in the
sub-request will point to the next filter in the main request. This
makes sense, because the sub-request's data needs to flow through the
same set of filters as the main request. A graphical representation
might help:
Default_handler --> includes_filter --> byterange --> ...
If the includes filter creates a sub request, then we don't want the data from that sub-request to go through the includes filter, because it might not be SSI data. So, the subrequest adds the following:
Default_handler --> includes_filter -/-> byterange --> ... / Default_handler --> sub_request_core
What happens if the subrequest is SSI data? Well, that's easy, the
is a resource filter, so it will be added to
the sub request in between the Default_handler
and the
The second case for sub-requests is when one sub-request is going to
become the real request. This happens whenever a sub-request is created
outside of a handler or filter, and NULL is passed as the next filter to
the make_sub_request
In this case, the resource filters no longer make sense for the new request, because the resource has changed. So, instead of starting from scratch, we simply point the front of the resource filters for the sub-request to the front of the protocol filters for the old request. This means that we won't lose any of the protocol filters, neither will we try to send this data through a filter that shouldn't see it.
The problem is that we are using a doubly-linked list for our filter stacks now. But, you should notice that it is possible for two lists to intersect in this model. So, you do you handle the previous pointer? This is a very difficult question to answer, because there is no "right" answer, either method is equally valid. I looked at why we use the previous pointer. The only reason for it is to allow for easier addition of new servers. With that being said, the solution I chose was to make the previous pointer always stay on the original request.
This causes some more complex logic, but it works for all cases. My concern in having it move to the sub-request, is that for the more common case (where a sub-request is used to add data to a response), the main filter chain would be wrong. That didn't seem like a good idea to me.
The final topic. :-) Mod_Asis is a bit of a hack, but the
handler needs to remove all filters except for connection filters, and
send the data. If you are using mod_asis
, all other
bets are off.
The absolutely last point is that the reason this code was so hard to
get right, was because we had hacked so much to force it to work. I
wrote most of the hacks originally, so I am very much to blame.
However, now that the code is right, I have started to remove some
hacks. Most people should have seen that the reset_filters
and add_required_filters
functions are gone. Those inserted
protocol level filters for error conditions, in fact, both functions did
the same thing, one after the other, it was really strange. Because we
don't lose protocol filters for error cases any more, those hacks went away.
The HTTP_HEADER
, Content-length
, and
filters are all added in the
phase, because if they were added earlier, we
had some interesting interactions. Now, those could all be moved to be
inserted with the HTTP_IN
, and
filters. That would make the code easier to

Wiki Page Templates
(since 0.11)
The default content for a new wiki page can be chosen from a list of page templates.
That list is made up from all the existing wiki pages having a name starting with PageTemplates/. The initial content of a new page will simply be the content of the chosen template page, or a blank page if the special (blank page) entry is selected. When there's actually no wiki pages matching that prefix, the initial content will always be the blank page and the list selector will not be shown (i.e. this matches the behavior we had up to now).
To create a new template, simply create a new page having a name starting with PageTemplates/.
(Hint: one could even create a PageTemplates/Template for facilitating the creation of new templates!)

Slow Cooker Creamy Tacos Recipe
This is a compensated post by BlogHer and PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese and is part of the Real Women of Philadelphia project. This is the first out of four recipes.
Raise your hand if you're a pretty lazy cook.
Raise your hand if you don't really like to cook.
ME! I'm raising two hands! pick ME! ME! ME!
Whenever I speak to groups of people, the audience acts surprised when I admit that I don't really like cooking.
Don't get me wrong--- I cook daily, read cookbooks faithfully, watch Food TV constantly, and enjoy exploring new recipes and flavor combinations.
But the actual act of cooking? The dicing, slicing, preparing, and handling?
not my favorite. *
This is why I like love my slow cookers so much. I love that I can toss food in, push a button and walk away.
And when you pair PHILADELPHIA's new Cooking Creme with the slow cooker, you've got the ultimate in lazy cooking.
Life just couldn't be better.
* much of this probably stems from the fact that I've got a toddler firmly attached to my leg while I'm trying to chop, and can usually overhear the other two arguing in the living room.
Zen Cooking? it just doesn't happen in our house.
The Ingredients.
serves 4-6 2 pounds chicken breast pieces (mine were frozen solid)
1 (14.5-ounce) can fire roasted tomatoes (you can use garlic-seasoned, or plain in a pinch. I wouldn't do tomatoes with chiles if feeding kids)
1 (10-ounce) container PHILADELPHIA Cooking Creme--- Santa Fe flavor
taco shells or corn tortillas
optional fixins': sour cream, avocado slices
optional add-ins to stretch the meal to feed more people: 1 cup frozen corn, or 1 can corn, drained, 1 can black or pinto beans, drained and rinsed
The Directions.
Use a 4-quart slow cooker (if adding the optional add-ins, a 6-quart might be a better fit).
Put the chicken into your cooker. Add the entire can of tomatoes. Scrape out all the Cooking Creme (lick the container. It's GOOD!)
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until chicken shreds easily with a fork. Stir well and serve in taco shells or corn tortillas with your favorite toppings.
The Verdict.
Okay. These are delicious. I love, love, love that I can get dinner done within 6-and-a-half minutes in the early morning without needing to put on my contacts.
This seriously couldn't be easier to throw together and I love not dirtying up a cutting board. The kids ate everything on their plate and my nine-year-old had seconds (Adam had thirds).
The Santa Fe Cooking Creme has a fantastic flavor--there is no need to add any additional seasoning. There's definitely a kick, but not enough to bother kid tongues. I do think it would be too much for us with added chiles (if you wanted to use tomatoes and chiles).
I will make this again. Happily.
Here's a snaphsot of the ingredient label (click on the photo to make it larger).
All of the finalist recipes are available to peruse/test out online at the Real Women of Philadelphia's Recipe Page.
Which looks good to you?
