host file/ loopback address broken cannot update AV/loginto WLM
Hi guys, this has been going for a couple of days now,
I cannot loginto windows live messenger and cannot update my avira free edition anti virus
So I tried updating my AV one night and found that I could not - kept coming up with an error... I could browse the web and torrent etc and so I believed that it was an issue with the AV (which the free edition does not contain a firewall btw) so i did a virus scan, came back clean, hit the forums, everything indicated a change to my host file. ipconfig /flushdns and /renew, reboot modem etc did not fix the issue.
I do not have a static IP, default windows 7 firewall etc
I ignored the issue for the moment, but found a couple of days later that this was not just Avira but also Windows Live Messenger...
troubleshooting windows live messenger came up with an error Error 80048820: Cannot Sign-in to Windows Live Messenger
so I performed all the steps as technet suggested: Error 80048820: Cannot Sign-in to Windows Live Messenger
this has not worked, my Host file remains unchanged and there have not been any recent changes - please note that I am using a netbook without a DVD drive and i really dont want to create a bootable windows usb to fix this issue... ideas anyone?

Please note that I can ping my loopback address, my default gateway, google and public dns addresses, I can browse the web fine, WLM and Avira dont update.
Eventlogs show nothing crazy for the last week and AV scan comes clean with latest manual update. everything works fine.. but obviously not...

You certainly seem to have the proficiency to check for everything possible.
But have you looked at the actual hosts file itself? It's located in C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc - it has no extension but is a plain text file you can edit in Notepad.
There should only be one single entry for 127.0.0.1 and localhost. See if any others were added that are causing your access problems on the Internet.

yep, my hosts file only has the loopback address (127.0.0.1 localhost)

|10 Nov 2011
okay, tried a system restore and this failed too - today I logged onto my computer to install MW3 (my desktop) and I found that the same thing was happening to my desktop... I updated from avira 2011 to avira 2012 either on the same day or roughly a day apart... Not with the same download. I can only assume that the downloads avira provided had a broken package or did not have all the info. Regardless - reinstalling windows on both my laptop and desktop (please not uninstalling on my desktop did not fix the issue) .... The only other thing could have been a windows update... either way they both dont update avira / windows update (found that out recently too) / loginto wlm Backed up and now reinstalling thanks guys...

Thanks so much for offering your opinion on your doctor.
With more detail about your experience - such as tips for getting good results, pros/cons, before & after photos - our team can add your story to the facelift community.
As a community manager, I'm asked all the time to keep encouraging people to share more details, which is so helpful for others considering procedures. So please accept this as a well-intentioned request from thousands.
Dr. Wang has an amazing manners with his patients. He put me at ease & assured me that things will go smoothly. True to his word, he did a great job & I came out of surgery looking like the young woman I was once. Not a an iota of skin is over stretched & the there is no scar that I can detect. Nobody could tell I had a facelift. Everybody kept asking me about the creams & solutions that I use for my face. I even travelled internationally to meet my extended family & not one of them suspected I had a facelift. I hope he will still be in Portland when I need another facelift in the years to come

Famous for Books
254 South Main Street
Salt Lake City 84101

This is the most famous bookstore in Utah and offers much more than books. Upstairs you will find a section dedicated to LDS books, rare reads and more delicate papers. Downstairs resembles a regular bookstore, but the selection is much more diverse. Visiting authors come here to read from their newest manuscripts and are available for a question and answer time afterward, as well as booksigning. Tourists find the location convenient, right in the center of downtown on Main Street.

text: Her name is Kim Yejin and she's an SM trainee. She was also featured on SHINee's Amigo MV if you want to check that out. Apparently she's around Baekhyun's height? Also it's rumored that Chanyeol has never asked a girl out so it's speculated she asked him first. Apparently she was supposed to be a SNSD member but she got cut lol and she was dating Chanyeol pre-debut. This is what shocked me the most thought: rumors are going around that not only does Kai have a girlfriend but she's the one and only Kim Yejin who is also Chanyeol's ex?! I don't know where that sprang off from since I just remember reading it somewhere but it's just a rumor. Here's some of her pictures and her with other SM artists. Her birthday is January 5, 1993. She also modeled with DBSK for smart uniforms. Yejin was also in KBS Children Choir and was also rumored to have been a member in f(x) but as you can see she didn't make it haha. There's also a pretty good info post about here you should take a look at hehe.

A new study says despite rules in place to prevent surgical mistakes, operations have still been performed on the wrong body part, or even the wrong patient.
The study looked at errors reported by doctors to the Colorado Physician Insurance Company between 2002 and 2008.
Of the more than 27,000 incidents reported, the study found 25 surgeries were actually performed on the wrong patient, and 107 operations were on the wrong body part.
The Chief Medical Officer at Penrose Hospital here in the Springs says they have several procedures in place to keep mistakes like that from happening.
For example, he says, they require patients to show two forms of identification before any procedure.
Surgeons are also required to put their initials where the incision will be. And once in surgery, the operating procedure is read out loud and they make sure the correct patient in is the room.
Jeff Oram-Smith of Penrose says "We are paying much more attention to it now than previously and it is because of national, actually world wide statistics of some of the errors that have occurred, our entire industry has become more safety conscious."
He says that all hospitals are now required to report any incident that happens, so while statistics may look like surgical mistakes are increasing, it may just be because they are now reported regularly.

Hartford's homeownership rate is among the lowest across the country for cities, but one project in the Sheldon-Charter Oak neighborhood is chipping away at that dismal standing.
The Corporation for Independent Living, a non-profit that develops and builds housing for low- and moderate-income families, has sold two of the eight, single-family attached houses in a redevelopment near the old Capewell Horseshoe Nail factory.
Another two units are under contract, and CIL is working with four more potential buyers. The first phase of the redevelopment eventually will have 16 houses.
"We are hoping to raise the level of commitment to homeownership in the city," Martin M. Legault, president of CIL, told me today.
CIL has renovated and constructed dozens of houses around the city, including some in the 1990s on nearby Wyllys Street.
The purchase prices are $155,000 for a 1,600-square-foot, two-bedroom house and between $165,000 and $175,000 for a slightly larger, three-bedroom house. Each house comes with a two-car garage.
The houses cost far more to construct — closer to $200,000 for each house not counting other additional costs such as paying off back taxes that were owned on the property.
But subsidies, including nearly $4 million from the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, are keeping prices down and encouraging urban homeownership, Legault said.
To qualify for a shot at purchasing, families must earn 80 percent or less of the median income for the Hartford area. For a family of four, annual income would have to be $65,000 or less a year.
Applicants must also complete an 8-hour homeownership training program.
One of the first things you notice walking into the houses is that there is unexpected attention to details: wide window moulding, six-panel interior doors and oval windows.
The houses must be owned by low- and moderate-income families for 15 years. If they are sold before that to buyers who don't meet the income guidelines, those buyers would be required to also pay off a portion of the housing subsidies, Elaine Schmidt, CIL's senior housing developer, told me.
Another phase of the redevelopment — another eight units — also is planned. But standing on the sidewalk outside the completed houses, Legault also has his eye on the massive, decaying Capewell factory just down the street at the corner of Charter Oak Avenue and Popieluszko Court.
He hopes that the old factory will become housing one day, too. Perhaps for condos, he says.

Harry Potter is 34 today, so here's my Throwback Thursday to my Harry Potter logo cross stitch. It's one of the favourite things I've made, but not my favourite thing TO make as the metallic gold thread drove me mad!!!!
A Bit of an Update
I've just come back to work today after a week off. I took the time off to go to a festival but we didn't end up going this year due to monetary issues (!) so I thought I'd have loads of time to craft, get some more stock in the shop and do a lot of online stuff. I was wrong!
I can now reveal the reason is that I have a new job! I had my first interview for this job a couple of weeks ago, the morning of the crafty catch up club, hence why I was so sleepy! Then last Friday I had to go for a second interview because it was between me and another person and they let me know I had the job last thing on Friday. Only got my confirmation letter yesterday and have handed in my notice at work so it's a bit of a stressful time but I'm excited! I will let you know more about it when I start, I just feel like I am going to jinx it if I talk about it too much.
It doesn't leave me with any more time for crafting but I will continue doing this in my spare time I promise!

Make It Yourself- Fabric Covered Noticeboard
Welcome! To the first of my new series of blog posts called #MIY- Make It Yourself!
Ideas on how to customise or up-cycle simple things into something a bit more special while at the same time looking after the pennies!
A couple of weeks ago I turned our garden summer house into a craft work shop. I did this without spending any extra money, just moving my craft things out there, and using old furniture from around my house. My first #MIY was featured in that post, and it is my fabric covered noticeboard. Amongst the things I found stored in my shed were a few unused noticeboards, but if you don't have one lying around, these are pretty cheap to buy. I also have stashes of fabrics that I have never gotten round to using, this one I had bought with a dress pattern, but still have no idea how to make clothes! So I thought I would make use of it.
You will need:
- Noticeboard
- Fabric of your choice (the size of the board)
- Fabric scissors
- A screwdriver/ plastic knife/ plastic model making tool or anything else with a flat but blunt edge.
- Drawing pins
- Picture hanging kit and hammer
Cut the fabric slightly larger than the size of the noticeboard, including the frame. If your fabric has a pattern make sure you cut it straight so it won't look wonky! Iron the fabric to take out any creases. Place the fabric on top of the board, the right way up, and use your flat screwdriver or plastic tool to start pushing the edges of the fabric under the frame. Make sure it is pulled tight.
When you have done this the whole way round, place a drawing pin in each corner to hold it in place. If the fabric seems loose, or the frame isn't holding it so well, you can create a border the whole way round with your drawing pins.
Et voila! Simple!
Hanging the board is easy as it is fairly light so doesn't need much to hold it up. I just used a pin from a picture hanging kit, and hammered it lightly into the wall, and then balance the frame of the noticeboard on top in the middle, so that it is hanging straight. If the noticeboard is heavier or won't hang straight, you can use two pins to hold it up at each corner.
This is my finished board! There's more on it now, nothing in my life stays this tidy for long!!
I hope you enjoyed this first edition of #MIY Make It Yourself, and enjoy customising your own notice board. If you do make this yourself, let me know by instagramming or blogging and tagging it with #MIY and #josiemakes!
Happy making,
Josie xxx

Yankees finalize Ellsbury, Kuroda deals
Bronx, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - The New York Yankees finalized two deals on Saturday, signing outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury to a seven-year pact and veteran pitcher Hiroki Kuroda to a one-year contract.
Ellsbury's contract is believed to be worth $153 million and includes a club option for 2021, while Kuroda will reportedly be paid $16 million in 2014.
The 30-year-old Ellsbury finished last season with a league-best 52 stolen bases, along with nine home runs, 31 doubles, 53 RBI and a .298 average for the World Series champion Boston Red Sox.
Ellsbury, who gained his only All-Star selection three seasons ago, a year in which he finished second in AL MVP voting to Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander, is a lifetime .297 hitter who has collected 65 homers, 155 doubles, 241 stolen bases and drove in 314 runs over 715 games with Boston since 2007.
Kuroda was the Yankees best starter for most of last season, going 11-13 with a 3.31 ERA in 32 starts. However, he lost his final six decisions of the season and pitched to a 6.56 ERA over his last eight starts.
The 38-year-old has been an innings-eater his entire career, as he has exceeded 200 innings in each of the past three seasons, including a career- high 219 2/3 innings in his first Yankees campaign in 2012.
After a prosperous career in Japan, Kuroda came to the Dodgers in 2008 and pitched to a 41-46 mark with a 3.45 ERA in 115 games. In two years with the Yankees, he's 27-24 with a 3.31 ERA.

Obama gets letters. Several Senate Republicans on Tuesday urged President Obama not to sign an executive order on cybersecurity, The Hill reports. In a letter to the president, "Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas), Dan Coats (R-Ind.), Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.), Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) and Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) said an executive order would fail to address the nation's cyber vulnerabilities."In-Q-Tel invests in cloud startup. In-Q-Tel, the venture capital firm that is funded in part by U.S. intelligence agencies, has invested in Cloudant, a cloud services startup that manages a distributed data layer on top of Apache CouchDB, an open-source "NoSQL" database. GigaOm reports that the "strategic stake means that IQT will vet and promote the use of Cloudant's NoSQL-based Cloudant Data Layer as a service by U.S. government agencies." InformationWeek reports that Coudant's "data layer as a service" can run on "servers hosted by Amazon, Joyent, Microsoft Windows Azure, and Softlayer." The size of In-Q-Tel's investment was not disclosed. Majority expect sequestration "punt." Seventy-nine percent of "national security insiders" think Congress "will punt sequestration for a few months" when members return for a lame-duck session after the November elections, National Journal reports. That publication surveyed 52 experts from government, academia, media and the think-tank world as part of its regular Insiders Poll series. "A mere 13 percent said members would make a grand bargain on the deficit—but only 9 percent believed sequestration would actually go into effect on Jan. 2 in its full capacity." Sprucing up the 404. "File not found" pages on websites are normally utilitarian affairs, possibly including a search box or link to a site map. But some sites, like Twitter, have taken a more conversational tone, and now House Speaker John Boehner's office has used a site redesign to bring politics to the Error 404 page. Roll Call reports that the speaker's recently redesigned site "cyber slaps Obama" with its message: "We recently upgraded our website and moved some things around to better highlight our focus on job creation and economic growth. Unfortunately, that means some links - like jobs in the Obama economy - are missing. Please click below to get back on track."None dare call it crowdsourcing. DARPA is not calling it crowdsourcing, but the Pentagon's research agency is nonetheless "gambling that you can build a swimming tank for the Marines in a fraction of the time it takes the military's lumbering acquisitions process," Wired.com reports. The FANG challenge – the acronym stands for Fast, Adaptable, Next-Generation Ground vehicle – has created a detailed "online library of data — called the Component, Context, and Manufacturing Model Library" to inform would-be designers — and a virtual foundry called VehicleFORGE." The design challenge, announced Oct. 2, is broken into three distinct phases, and offers winning teams a total of $4 million in prize money.

Surely it is Bill Gates. I think he has one of the most efficiently running charitable institution in the world and he actively involves in the functioning of it. Warren Buffet's endorsement of Bill Gates Charity is a proof of his confidence.
Bill Gates will leave a legacy that outlasts all others.
Mostly Americans who have given away such large sums, yet I would venture to guess that theolist of 793 Billionaire's is no longer mostly Americans.. What does that tell you about the character of the people our great country. I am sure tha the same holds true of charitable contributions of the not-so-wealthy.
God Bless America
Another vote for Bill Gates. He's donated more than the people in positions 2..7 on that list together. He's also paid billions more to those thieves in the European anti-trust commission. Hopefully some of that cash will make it to the poor people in Europe and not just to politicians and lawyers. He has also generated an incredible number of jobs (including mine, as a Microsoft.Net programmer), which in turn generate an even larger number of jobs (I do have a home, eat, buy books and DVDs, etc.). All in all, Bill has made the planet much nicer.
I'd like to see where they give their money TO!! THAT would be equally as telling as what they gave.
Chuck Feeney
Donations are not just altruistic. They are also used to employ your friends and to pay back favors. Never-the-less, let's not look a gift horse in the mouth.
What about Chuck Feeney of Duty Free, he gave away billions and the most on a percentage basis; he has my vote for the most "generous" on the planet.
Mr. Soros has been particularly political in the target of his donations. Moveon.is an example of his donations.
You can find out where the Gates donate at http://www.gatesfoundation.org
My mom is the most generous person on the planet, for having me.
F1rst m0m post!!!!111
Where is Steve Jobs? Poor guy.
Mother Theresa. She gave up her entire family fortune and donated her time, heart and soul to the poor. There is more than just writing the check. Bill and Melinda commit to intelligent/ trans formative donations. There's something to be said to give in order to change ever having to give.
"…think is the most "generous" person on the planet?"
Why do people give to charity ? Especially those like Gates, Buffet, Soros and the likes with hard noses for business, why give their hard earned money away? I am just curious.
Your Parents
Why isn't Oprah on that list? She's always talking about charity. But maybe it's that she wants everyone else to give.
Qstars in TX…
How foolish. 1. Oprah probably doesn't have $1B+ to give away. Being WORTH $2B doesn't mean she HAS that much cash. 2.The woman gives serious amounts of money away-Most I'd venture to say isn't publicized. 3. Why on earth would she need to give it away now, when you'd like her to do it? Perhaps since she has no children she plans to develop a philanthropic organization that's funded by her wealth when she dies. Something that will live on forever. Don't try to spend someone else's money for them. Just make and spend your own.
Educate yourself.
Wealth Advisor
Another vote for Mother Theresa, and for anyone who "feeds the hungry, clothes the naked, shelters the homeless" without a single thought of leaving a foundational "legacy" behind.
I'd like to see a list based on inflation adjusted dollars. In that case I would think (but I'm not sure) that J.D. Rockefeller would make it, right?
Gates charitable giving is commendable, for sure, but let's not forget that he built his wealth as a monopolist and plagiarizer of other people's work. One should actually thank his wife for turning him around, because he went from a charity "miser" to this after he was married.
These guys are generous but the most generous people are the ones who give away their whole lives to help others like Mother Teresa. Frankly, its easy to give away billions when you have billions left over.
I think that we should question the word "Donate". Is the receiving entity or "Charity" Organized by the donors? Is the nature of the donation merely to create a tax shelter? In my opinion this is a confusing article.
14/793 is a shame, BUT I dont expect someone who just made the Billionaire list to give it away either. What impresses me are the names on here I have never heard of. Anone want to convert this into % of net worth? I think anyone who gives away to charity more than they pay in taxes to be among the most generous.
It would be interesting to see who the "charitable" recipients were. In Soros case, I suspect that a good portion of his was to various entities promoting his political agenda.
I really wish some other rich person's face was the cover of this story rather than that ugly-ass-currency-destroyer-anti american Soros.
The most generous person would have to be none of those listed, because – admirable as it is – their giving does not involve sacrifice. Whatever they give, they will still be wealthy enough to have whatever they want for themselves.
Some say (cf. Maimonides eight degrees of charity) that the most sincere charity requires anonymity. Putting these ideas together, we can say that the most generous person in the world is a poor man or woman whose name we cannot know.
Maybe some of these folks should direct their donations to the Nationl Debt! :-)
Still waiting for Warren Buffet to adopt me.
I know how to spend his money,trust me.
Buffet gave each of his 3 children $1B to give away. I read the article on Wednesday while flying. They spoke about the charlatans who wanted the money and how difficult it was to give it to someone where it would make a long term difference.
I have a challenge for all of you — make a donation to the university/college or other school that you attended. They are really hurting for funds right now. Education is one of our countries most valuable resources. I have donated about $200K to mine so far in my life. We are going to give most of our money away, not give it to the prince and ruin his life. He will survive and do just fine — I expect him to be wealthy on his own. He has the right kind of ethic to accomplish this.
Robert — how about an article about how the rich are abandoning Florida because of the high taxes, etc?
Great stuff. It's either you go directly into helping others, or make a boat load of money and help this way.
Gotta be Barak. He's been giving away my money like it's going out of style.
Does it count that Soros gives money to anti-American organizations that later promote his interests and investments? He gives money to Serbian radio stations that are known to be anti-US and mysteriously support things he likes, like wherever his money is going.
Also, where is accountability? Who says this money was actually given?
And does it count that he ruined Malaysia and Indonesia in 1998 to get the bread?
He is a louse.
Should #1 be Bill and Melinda Gates? Since it's the Bill and Melinda gates foundation that makes the donations?
Number Seven- The people who started the sub-prime mortgage bubble. To Wong Fu, thanks for everything.
Isn't it remarkable how many individuals are US citizens or residents?
Does this mean that billionaires in other countries are not charitable, or just reflect poor data?
Barry has been watching too much Bill O' Hypo
Where is Mr Carlos Slim?? second wealthiest in the world
It is a shame that he has made so much money in part to the monopoly that he controls in Mexico where the telecomunications rates are considered as one of the most expensive ones in the world. Shame on you!!
People in that country need a break for something as basic as the use of a telephone line, Why accumulate so much wealth for yourself ? I have no admiration for people like him at all.
If there are so many millionaires and billionaires who donate to various charities, then why we the poor American citizens constantly asked to donate money? By the way I see it, all of these charities should be rich by this point because by the way it looks, none of the "money" being donated to these charities are ever documented as being used. Who's truly donating to what charities? And what charities are truly distributing the donations? Bottom line – these rich people are just that -RICH! They have no intentions of spending their own money to donate to what I feel as being a make believe charity. I would love to see some documentation of such donations being respectfully distributed. Guess what people, YOU WILL NEVER SEE THESE DOCUMENTS. It's all A SCANDAL.
how to get it
Need at least a minimum $65000 to buy land in Bandung, Indonesia for planting woods cutting trees, I'd love to see who's generous enough in helping me on this project. Thank you firstname.lastname@example.com

The NBA trade deadline is approaching and the Eastern Conference looks to be the hone of a host of unconventional buyers this year. While the Charlotte Bobcats appear serious about making waves, the Washington Wizards are in the market for a backup point guard and appear to have eyes set west on Denver.
While no official word out of Wizards' camp has indicated they're in hot pursuit of embattled Nuggets guard Andre Miller, Marc J. Spears from Yahoo! Sports suggests that it would make a lot of sense.
The Wizards are desperately seeking a veteran backup guard. Denver's Andre Miller could be a great fit behind John Wall.
The Wizards aren't a lock to make a deal at the deadline but they're certainly keeping their options open. As Spears points out, Miller makes a lot of sense for the Wizards and the Nuggets need to get rid of him. This could lead to a trade and one the the Wizards find very affordable.

How to check manual transmission fluid
How to check manual transmission fluid
manual 1.9
I just bought this car for $250 and the old owner said he was sitting at a red light and when he went to take off he felt a big jump and he drove it home and parked it. Later moving it he saw a huge puddle under the car. I towed it home and drove it up my drive way and it ran fine. I wanted to check the trans. fluid to see if thats what the problem is. I CANT FIND OUT HOW TO DO IT!!! I dont think there is a stick like a auto trans., so how can I check it....and if the car drives fine, then does that even sound like the transmission. Help me please. I would like to check it out as much as possible on my own, and if I cant fix it, then I want to know as much as possible so nobody tries to screw me over when I take it to them to fix....thanks so much
To check the manual trans. fluid, you must take out the speed sensor. Follow the speedo cable to the transmission, you'll see a picture stamped in the case, cant exactly remember what it looks like, but you'll get the point. Unfasten the bolt that holds the sensor in, and pull it STRAIGHT OUT. The fluid should be at the top of the gear on the sensor when full. Remember to use ATF fluid in this transmission. And don't bang your hands up too much.
Q: Where is the manual transmission fluid level checked on a 96 Ford Escort?
A: With the hood open looking at the engine, stand just to the right of center. Lean forward and look down behind the throttle plate assembly but in front of the firewall. Just above the passenger side drive axle on the transmission, you will see the vehicle speed sensor and speedometer cable. To inspect the fluid level in this transmission will require removal of the speed sensor from the transmission. The level indicator is the gear on the bottom of the speed sensor. If the oil level is below the gear, oil is needed. Ideally, the oil level should be in the mid to top area of the gear. This is also the point that you add oil if needed.
Is this accurate? Any more pointers on how to find it. I want to make sure it is not empty before moving it. Thanks
sounds good to me. just replaced my sensor since it broke when i tried to get it out. ended up bring to a shop so they could chesel out what was left. so good luck with it.

a crooked trans shop in vegas broke by tranny case a year ago. before i JBwelded it shut (!!) it leaked about a cup of fluid every 30 minutes, and i had to drive it 300 miles to do anything about it. hence, i filled the transmission up every 30 minutes for a while, worrying i would run the fluid low and ruin the gears. now i consider myslef the grandmaster blackbelt of trans fluid checking in the escort.
this is what i do
1. find it. i find it most easily accessed not from the front of the car, leaning over the radiator, but from the right side of the hood, (according to driver)
2. take needlenose pliers, and pull spring clip out which retains speedo cable.
3. pull cable out
4. pull electrical connector off.
5. put a 10mm socket on a *long* ratchet extension and unscrew retaining bolt. you could do it with no extension and more contortion.
6. pull sensor straight up and out, wiggling a little.
to get it back in, you may need to do a lot more wiggling to get the teeth in the sensor to mesh with the transmission again. if the cable doesnt slide back in, turn the cable a bit with your fingers and reinsert.

Is this accurate? Any more pointers on how to find it. I want to make sure it is not empty before moving it. Thanks
oops, you were asking for more tips on how to find it, not how to remove it..
get on the driver's right side of the hood. get a flashlight turned on if youre in a garage. lean over. about in the middle of the car, left to right, and near the rear of the engine compartment (by the firewall), about two feet down from the hood in depth is the speed sensor. it has a speedometer cable (black plastic) that goes straight down into it from above, attached with a spring clip. it is attached to a big aluminum casting- the transmission- below, by a metal bracket and a single 10mm bolt on the driver's right side. there is an electrical connector on the driver's left side. the little picture cast into the transmission that tells you how to check the fluid is hard to see, i find.
if you need to fill it up, and dont have a funnel with a long extension (i dont), i use a tiny dixie cup in my left hand, thread my hand through the heater and other hoses behind the intake manifold and pour it in by hand.

13. Although an older design intake, bridging the gap between the intake runners is a Weiand X-celerator intake manifold, part number 7545. More could be had if using a newer-design intake, but this is what we had. The small-runner Weiand single-plane intake received extensive porting, but was still short of the optimal size for the cylinder heads when maxed out, with the small cross-sectional area proving to limit peak power rpm. We suspect that a similarly modified Edelbrock Super Victor or Holley Strip Dominator would have added a few hundred rpm to peak.

Using Janitorial Services In Medford OR
Many companies and schools need janitorial services in Medford OR because they need their classrooms, desks, bathrooms, and the main areas of the buildings to be cleaned on a regular basis. Every elementary school, junior high, and high school has a crew of janitors that works every day so that they can maintain the school's cleanliness.
Some of the janitorial services in Medford OR that can be performed at a school include mopping, waxing, buffing, scrubbing toilets, cleaning carpets, dusting, emptying trashes, cleaning windows, and cleaning up messes in the lunch room after students are done eating. Janitor are really useful when it rains or when there is snow because children tend to track in mud and water that has to be cleaned up and that has to be cleared away so that other children do not slip and fall.
Many janitors are full-time employees, but some can be hired on a temporary basis if a school or business needs additional janitorial services. By having full-time janitors at a school, a school should never look messy or gross because someone will always be there to take care of the mess. These are just some of the things to know about janitorial services.

In his letter, "Armed citizenry could stop terrorists in public places" (Sept. 26), the author believes the Kenya mall tragedy would've been less deadly if Kenya's citizens carried weapons. There is a video of an undercover policeman trying to convince a hesitant woman to follow him to safety in that mall.
In the U.S., if a young man approached wearing traditional Muslim head wear (or any other minority) and brandishing a gun what would be the outcome? Policemen receive considerable training to know when and when not to shoot. The outcome could have been more tragic in the panic.

The TomTom Runner Cardio gives rival fitness trackers and smartwatches a run for their money with built-in GPS and heart rate monitoring.
TomTom completely redesigns its GO series of portable navigation devices with a slick new interface that puts the focus on the map instead of the menu.
commentary Getting lifetime map updates with a TomTom GPS sounds great until you actually try to get a new map. Then you might feel lost.
The GPS hardware provider gets serious about fitness tech with the announcement of the TomTom Runner and Multi-Sport watches and accessories.
Foursquare fans gain another tool for racking up check-in points and mayorships with TomTom's new app integration with this social network.
A smallish version 1.13 update to the navigation app makes your data as mobile as you are.
A Netherlands-based analyst says there's a 30 percent chance that Apple will attempt to acquire the GPS and mapping company.
To achieve independence, Apple and Samsung need to leave Google behind.
The company, best known for its auto navigation systems, wants developers to build map apps. And thus it's opening up map display, routing, and traffic details for use.
[commentary] The sportswear giant had a good run with the FuelBand. Now, though, wearable technology is a whole new footrace.

"Fite me irl bro!!"
For years, internet troll and scrawny loser Charlie Zelenoff has been insulting and stalking heavyweight boxer Deontay Wilder. Zelenoff has insulted and hurled racial slurs at Wilder, Wilder's wife, and Wilder's handicapped daughter on social media. Basically, he's the pinnacle of a classy gentleman.
Zelenoff also took jabs at Wilder's boxing career, claiming that he was the better boxer even though he had never won a single registered match, while Wilder has won his last 31 consecutive decisions by knockout. Naturally, Wilder called Zelenoff out on his crap, saying that if you're the better boxer, why not prove it?
Surprisingly, Zelenoff agreed to a match. The two met at Hollywood Boxing Gym in Los Angeles, and what followed was three glorious minutes of Zelenoff getting his face pummeled into a pulp.
Make that 32 consecutive decisions by knockout...

Three people are now in custody following a standoff with Pueblo police at a home at 320 Alma Avenue.
Pueblo police tell NEWS5 that suspect, 21 year old Joseph Carillo, wanted on a parole violation, was spotted by police in the neighborhood. Police say Carillo went in to the home at 320 Alma.
Multiple police units were called in, weapons drawn. After about three hours, Carillo was taken in to custody without incident along with two others. Crystal Gallegos was wanted on a parole violation, and Rosemary Hernandez, was wanted on a municipal warrant.
Police searched cars left at the house for evidence.

Recent Hiking/Camping Product Reviews
Deuter Futura 32
Great pack! Very comfortable and functional. My back stayed pretty dry, despite some warm conditions on long day hikes in the Grand Canyon, recently. Purchased this pack recently to use on some long day hikes, with a few overnighters on occasion. I just came back from a week of camping at the Grand Canyon, with some long day hikes taken every day. Each day I packed a full hydration bladder, a liter of Gatorade, snacks, first aid kit, and a light jacket. Everything fit perfectly, though when the… Full review
Ozark Trail 40F Mummy Sleeping Bag
I used this bag two nights last weekend and found it was too cold on its own—lowest temp was 51 degrees each of those nights. I agree with almost everything commented by Eric. I prefer a cool sleeping environment. However, I used this bag two nights last weekend and found it was too cold on its own—lowest temp was 51 degrees each of those nights. I was in a large tent (admittedly, a smaller tent would have been better) with one other person. I had to add a fleece sleeping bag for more insulation. Full review
Eureka! Timberline 2
We have purchased Timberline tents for our Boy Scout troop in the past and found them useful, easy to set up, and good quality (lasting many years). However, the last purchase of eight tents in 2013, was a disaster. Eureka changed the zippers — and they won't stay closed. The teeth on the zippers don't hold, and if you pull the zipper just right, and manage to close the zipper, it pulls open with a very light pull (even the wind will open it). Simply, they won't stay shut! We're now looking for… Full review
Mountain Hardwear Snowtastic 28 Backpack
The Mountain Hardwear Snowtastic 28 pack is a good idea that just wasn't executed very well. Some of the flaws can be fixed with very little time and money, others leave me scratching my head and asking "why did they choose to do it that way?" As far as carrying capacity, I'd say it's great for day trips, but accessing your stuff isn't the easiest. I bought the MH Snowtastic 28 because I want to get a little more adventurous in my snowshoeing this year, and my Camelbak pack doesn't hold much more… Full review
The Instaflator
Simple, easy to use, human powered tool for filling sleep pads or other inflatable gear. Packs light and small, no batteries required. Would probably work to inflate a pack raft, but definitely a great way to save some breath when making camp at the end of the day. My first reaction when someone here on Trailspace posted a link to The Instaflator was to laugh. Then I got to thinking about the advantages of not having to blow up my sleep pad manually and the idea didn't seem so silly. I ordered two… Full review

Beautiful bracelets
By Lorraine
from Red Deer, AB
Was so excited to get these but so disappointed, I have a large wrist - size 8- but could not get them over my hand. I was soooooo disappointed to send them back. The quality was beautiful and the color was very soft and feminine. Wish they had fit.

Loved these bracelets
Oh my goodness!!! Loved these bracelets!! They were so beautiful and the quality is superb. Unfortunately I had to return them as I have a large wrist but could not even get them over my hand. I was soooooo disappointed. !I wish they came in a bigger size. So sorry RJ, your stuff is gorgeous and no way would I have ret'd them if I could have gotten them on.

Love these bangles....
By Ann
from Kingston, Ontario
I recently purchased three different sets of the Graziano bangles and for the price, I was amazed with the quantity, quality and style of these bracelets. I love bracelets and wear them most of the time, so versatility is very important....depending on the occasion, I can wear one or two at a time, or several at once.
Beutiful Braclets
By Stormy

I love these bracelets which make a lovely clinking sound when I walk and people can hear me coming but they complete my pale pink suite for summer and I love them!

The increased rate highlights a trend towards discouraging unnecessary admissions. Meanwhile, the agency announces a pilot project to cut down appeal waits for long-term care providers.
Bloomberg: Hospitals To Get 2.1% Pay Boost On Medicare Outpatients
Medicare payments to hospitals for care they provide on an outpatient basis would increase 2.1 percent under an Obama administration proposal highlighting a trend toward discouraging unnecessary admissions. ... The proposed increase for 2015 was released yesterday in a regulation from the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. ... The Medicare agency already proposed trimming payments for admissions at hospitals next year by about $241 million. Those cuts are in part due to the Affordable Care Act, which ordered reductions in Medicare costs to help pay for its expansion of insurance coverage, in a deal with the hospital industry (Wayne, 7/4).
McKnight's: CMS Announces Medicare Appeals Without Administrative Law Judges
Long-term care providers will be able to appeal certain Medicare claims decisions without utilizing an administrative law judge, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services announced Friday. Settlement Conference Facilitation is an alternate dispute resolution process that would bring providers and CMS representatives together to negotiate and settle Medicare disputes with the help of a third party. ... This "settlement conference facilitator" would be an employee of the Office of Medicare Hearings and Appeals, which is a separate agency from CMS, according to a fact sheet on the pilot program (Mullaney, 7/7).

Does Anti-Money-Laundering Work?Posted on April 9, 2014, 7:46pm | Source: blogs.wsj.com | Join the conversation
Bitjuice Editor's Note: A recent independent report found serious shortcomings in how the IMF and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) have been policing money laundering. The report examined the recently concluded third round of assessments under the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) program. Rick McDonell, executive secretary of FATF, addressed criticisms in an interview with Risk & Compliance Journal.
Two questions of particular interest to Bitcoin supporters are regulations regarding Virtual Currencies and regulatory abuse in the form of political surveillance and repression. An edited version follows:
Q: How do new technologies, such as virtual currencies, affect the picture, and do you anticipate further challenges from technological innovation?
A: I can say we are ...discussing it in depth with the private sector. Money launderers are always looking for a way around the system and will use whatever is available. In each of these ways of transferring money, can you put in place effectively a system that identifies who is sending what to whom? In terms of virtual currencies that remains the same. We leave the handling of regulation or non-regulation to each individual country. That's their prerogative provided they can show the misuses of such electronic tools are covered adequately and they don't leave loopholes.
Q: Some suggest that the mechanisms put in place ostensibly to police money laundering can also work as instruments of political surveillance and repression. Is there adequate attention to this risk at FATF, and if so how is it operationalized?
A: Yes, these sorts of concerns have been voiced specifically with respect to the operations of NGOs (Non-Governmental Organizations), for example, and transfers of money through or with them. The FATF standards are aimed at trying to deal with a public bad: money laundering and terrorist financing. All we are looking for is for a country that puts these recommendations in place to aim them in the right way. If they use them in the wrong way, there is nothing we can do as a group to stop that.
A recent independent report by the Center on Law and Globalization found serious shortcomings in how the International Monetary Fund and the Financial Action Task Force have been policing money laundering. The report examined the recently concluded third round of assessments under the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) program. Rick McDonell, executive secretary of the Financial Action Task Force, addressed criticisms in an interview with Risk & Compliance Journal.
Is there evidence that fighting money laundering makes a difference in crime reduction or terrorist financing? Critics say that is merely a "plausible folk theory".
Mr. McDonell: The FATF has proceeded on the basis that there is a problem, demonstrated, with proceeds of crime and terrorist financing entering the financial system and not being identified. The FATF is a consensus body of all of its members. That means that all of them have signed up at a top ministerial level to do something about money laundering. The financial intelligence work in connection with money laundering has led to prosecutions and seizure of criminal assets.
The report criticized the third round of assessments for focusing on processes rather than impact, and failing to tie processes to results. Is that a fair shot, and how will the fourth round be different?
Mr. McDonell: I think the third round did work for the purpose it was set up to do. What we are looking at is a pretty massive global effort. One of the things the report says is that it will take years to achieve the outcomes we are aiming for in the fourth round, and I do not dispute that at all.
The main distinction between the third round and the fourth round is that the third round was almost entirely looking at technical compliance. In the fourth round we will still look at technical compliance but will be able to use the database from the third round to focus on areas where countries had deficiencies identified, rather than a total rerun from scratch. But the majority of reports in the fourth round will look at effectiveness. Does the country understand its risks? Is there international cooperation? Are supervisors doing their jobs? Are financial institutions reporting adequately? Are legal persons covered? Each country will be given a rating as well as a detailed report on its effectiveness. So we won't be looking just at technical compliance but at what is it producing.
Will we see more of a move to so-called "problem oriented policing," and if that is the intent, how will FATF make that shift?
Mr. McDonell: There is a complaint in the report that I accept, that calculating how much money is being laundered hasn't been done scientifically. But money laundering by nature is a hidden thing. Proceeds of crime is what it deals with. What we do need is for a country to demonstrate it has a good understanding and has in place a written national risk assessment that covers the areas of crime prevalent in that country. It could be drugs, trafficking of humans, offshore financial center misuse, or other. What we will expect of countries ...
