Ford Expedition Noises
nalapombu Posts: 2Hey all,
I have a 2003 Expedition Eddie Bauer with AWD/4WD with the 5.4 engine. It has 60,000 miles on it and has ran great for a long time.
The other day it started making a sound that I have never heard a car make before. When you are driving down the road when you hit about 25 mph a pronounced SQUEALING or SCREAMING type of noise comes from what seems to be the FRONT end, DRIVERS SIDE tire area. It is a continuous noise and will not stop unless I slow down to less than 5 mph or stop. As soon as I accelerate, it's there again. It is EASILY heard by passing cars too.
My step dad and I have been trying to figure it out. He is VERY good mechanically. The vehicle shifts into other gears smoothly, revving the engine doesn't make a bit of difference in the noise. I have switched it into all the different 4wd modes with no change at all. I have switched on and off everything I can in the interior to see if it makes any difference in the sound and it does not. Today we replaced the front brake shoes and that didn't change anything. It was due anyway.
It doesn't really sound like a grinding, just a high pitched squeal. My Step dad said it reminds him of blowing up a balloon and then pinching the rim of the balloon and letting the air out. You know that sound right? Well that's what I have whenever I am over 15mph.
There are no other strange noises. The motor revs and runs great and sounds great. Neither of us can detect any problems what so ever with the tranny. It simply sounds like there is something right behind the front end drivers side wheel that is causing the horrid noise.
Can anyone help us figure out what is going on here? Any similar experiences with yours?
Thanks for your help and time.
clancemo Posts: 2This sounds very familiar. I have a 2004 and around 100k miles my left front wheel bearing went out. Shortly after that the right front wheel bearing went out.
To verify you could jack up the front driver side like you were going to change the tire. Spin the tire and you should hear and feel if the bearings are bad.0
bvolkmuth Posts: 1My truck has had a couple of on going symptoms that I can't seem to track down. The first one that showed up is what feels like a lag or resistance from the right side of the truck with a vibration when accelerating. Just yesterday this seems to have turned into a new problem. Now it feels like there is a very large gear that grinds only during about 1/2 of its revolution. I also have noticed that the AW4D never works and putting in it 4WD manually (throwing the switch myself) causes several other interesting noises and takes quite a bit of forward and reverse action to get it back into 2WD. Any help, hints or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!0
I had the rattling sound from the wheel area too. I took it in to the dealer and they rebuilt part of the transmission which did not solve the problem. The service manager took an interest in the problem and figured it out without lifting the hood. Seems that there is a vacuum valve that controls the 4WD hubs and when they get old they start to leak and the hubs are trying to engage at high speed which causes all the noise. I've got a 2005 Expo with about 50M miles on it. Until now I had never had a problem with it. Once they put the new valve in the noise went away and hasn't come back in a month.0
jamull79 Posts: 1i have a 2003 ford expedition, ive noticed lately that it doesnt have the same power it used to, esp up hills it slows down and then u have to put the pedal to the floor just to make it up the hill. Well, today my wife called me and said she went out and started the vehicle, and it made a loud rattling noise in the front end when she started it, so she turned it off and called me, anyone else have any prob like that, if so, what could it be??0
shangay Posts: 1Hi, i have a ford exp 2000 xlt i hear a bum when i press the gas pedal like to pass a car on the road (overdrive) i don't know is a trans problem or a bushing or suport
anybody can help me on that?0
w6g1p401 Posts: 1Did you figure this out??
I hope this isn't U-joints I just spent 650 a few months ago to get them fixed.
My truck has been doing this since I changed the brake pads.0
jeldridge Posts: 1I have a 1997 Expedition. Sometimes, not always, when I park and turn the engine off, the air suspension system in the rear will make a noise like air escaping from a balloon. I'm guessing this is the air being vented from the suspension, but why doesn't it do it all the time, and how can I stop it? Thanks0
myckelh Posts: 1Hi,
did you ever get an answer to this problem? I'm having the same issue.0
Our 2003 Ford Expedition (Eddie Bauer ed) 2WD with 105,000 miles just began making a grinding noise that sounds like wheels or front end. The noise got worse after towing a light trailer on a 4 hour trip...seems to be more profound on accelerating and more so on decelerating but is unnoticable on idle in park and less noticable at constant high speeds (60 or 70). Had the brakes in front replaced a few months ago and just one week past the oil change. After reading other messages, I am uncertain whether this is a bearing issue or transmission or ?0
nerdy1 Posts: 7Hi
I am having the same problem and i haven't towed anything.
I would be very interested in the answers you receive. Could you send them to me.
I owe a 04 expedition.
antman5 Posts: 1Probably the differential. Had my 03 in for a replacement @ 175K miles. $2K @ dealership to rebuild ( replace gears/bearings) $1200 @ independent shop but opted for one from a junker @ $800 parts and labor. Lots of issues with the Expeditions with the independent rear suspension diffs. Honestly though, I drove ours with a whine for about 60K miles before getting it replaced.0
Turns out, it was more than one thing...the wheel bearings were in fact bad...replaced for around $350...THEN at the same time, a spark plug blew completely out and took out the small coil attached to it (5.4L Triton V8) as well as the line to the washer fluid...the plug issue happened suddenly as I was pondering the scraping sound and was a load pop followed by loud sputtering as the engine limped on without that cylinder. After some searching, I learned that over 30,000 cases of this have happened and even law suits were filed for them...mostly to the benefit of the lawyers :/ Ford is not recalling though even though this seemingly is a defect in all models starting around 1997 through 2007!!! I won't ever but another Ford vehicle.0
follow the exhaust pipe. check those heat shields that separate body from pipe, muffler or cats. if those are loose, it will sound like the truck is falling apart.0
check wheel bearings.0
alwaysfords2 Posts: 339I'm guessing since that post was almost 5 years ago it is probably all set.0
fordexpo1 Posts: 1i have hade a persistant "WHOP,WHOP,WHOP" noise whenever i am driving my 2001 expedition. i have had the rear-end replaced and it is still there, just not as pronounced as before. they told me it may be the e-brake or a bent backing plate. the rear end was used with 60000 miles. any chance i got another bad rear end?0
ddale1 Posts: 1My 1998 Eddie Bauer Expedition is making a sound similar to what you describe. It is intermittent and seems to come and go and I haven't been towing a trailer with it. Differential sounds like a good possibility, but it has low miles. A wheel bearing would be constant. This "grinding" noise is most noticable at very low speed. any other experiences or ideas out there?0
I am re-posting this now since it was 2010 when I first solved my problem and posted it here. Following is the original post:
Jun 28, 2010 (1:43 pm)
I had the rattling sound from the wheel area too. I took it in to the dealer and they rebuilt part of the transmission which did not solve the problem. The service manager took an interest in the problem and figured it out without lifting the hood.

PS. The truck now has 90,000 miles on it and the rattle has never come back.0
Can't believe it's been over 3 years since I posted that. I had been living with this very annoying resonance (and RPM jump that made driving in traffic somewhat jerky) for the last 30,000 miles, but since it wasn't getting any worse, and nothing blew up, I let it go.
Finally had the time today to act on a hunch -- I solved this by making sure that the tube running from the air filter housing to the hard plastic inlet at the throttle body was pulled taught against the filter housing before cinching the large hose clamp. My clues were 1) the RPM jump that accompanied the buzzing noise -- that seemed to me (coupled with where the sound seemed to be coming from) to point to the inlet tract; 2) sometimes after checking or replacing the air filter, the resonance would be reduced for a couple of days. I took it for a very brief drive with the air filter housing top loose today and could hear a change in tone when the resonance was taking place as compared to with the filter housing in place.
There are several resonance chambers built into the inlet tract, so apparently having the right stiffness and/or geometry of the assembly is important.
Hope this helps someone else someday.0
kegel0216 Posts: 1I have a 2007 Exp Limited EL with 70k miles on it. I recently put new tires on it (July 22) and I have a very noticeable vibration once I hit 75mph. I had a vibration before, but we thought it was because the tires were definitely ready to be replaced. The new wheels have been rebalanced and I've taken it to Ford. I had them check the tie-rods, steering box, and nothing. They took it for a test drive and the mechanic didn't feel anything. I've taken it to some friends of mine that are mechanics and they felt it easy enough and said something is definitely wrong. The said the vibration feels more side to side instead of like a rumble strip vibration. The wheel bearings have also been checked. We're at a total loss. Any ideas? It seems to feel like it starts in the back and works its way up. Not sure what else to look at, could it be the drive shaft?0
Does the vibration come and go, i.e. is it smooth for a short while and then increase? That's often the way it goes with tires out of balance.
Where did you get your tires? Hate to say it, but I've had rotten luck with places like Walmart, or even discount tire places. My theory is that they get 'seconds', with hard spots in the rubber etc.
Also, tire balancing is an art, especially with big, heavy tires. The shop should index the tire to the wheel (find th high and low spots on each and set them up so they cancel out.) If it seems like you're not getting anywhere with one shop, try another. I finally found a shop that was able to make a huge difference with my Expy -- The local Ford dealer had no clue, nor did the Big-O tire shop. A road-force balancing machine may help.
Driveshaft issues will be different, much smaller in amplitude but higher in frequency, 2000 hz or so, same as the engine RPMs in 4th (the six-speed in the Expy actually doesn't have any gear with a direct 1:1 ratio, but close enough) and not tending to come and go. If that's it, either replace or balance (you can try indexing it as well by matching the high spot of the driveshaft with the low spot on the engine and/or diff flanges.
Very frustrating thing, I know!0
priestly49 Posts: 1Hey there, i have an '04 expo, and until recently has been running fine. within the last two to three months, things seem to be going down hill quickly.
My acceleration is very poor, there is a strange knocking in the rear of the vehicle. overall power is almost non existent. and i have no idea where to even begin when trying to fix the situation. can any one please help me with this one.0

Make Hardware Jewelry
Nuts, bolts, washers, and screws aren't just for building furniture and equipment anymore. Scrap hardware can also be wired together to make punk-style jewelry in just a few simple steps. Your child can let her own personal style shine with a unique necklace or bracelet, and she'll be helping out the environment at the same time! Who knew it was so easy to recycle everyday objects into cute, trendy accessories?
What You Need:
- Nuts, bolts, washers, or screws
- Thin craft wire
- Claps, necklace chain, or earring hooks (found at craft stores)
- Scissors
- Paper and pencil
What You Do:
- Collect and clean hardware that your teen wishes to use in her jewelry.
- Next, encourage her to sketch a design that creatively combines different hardware pieces. Invite her to come up with a cool pattern or a unique way of overlapping the different pieces. Coming up with a plan beforehand will make the later stages easier.
- Now, ask her to lay the hardware out to match her design.
- Have her use the craft wire to hold the hardware pieces together. She can do this by cutting a piece no more than 6 inches in length and wrapping it around two separate pieces of hardware. This should create a tight attachment.
- After wrapping the wire, twist the loose ends together and trim any excess wire.
- She should repeat this process, attaching additional pieces of hardware until the piece is complete.
- Have her attach the finished ornament to the jewelry chain by threading the chain through part of the hardware, or creating a loop of wire and using that as a hook.
An alternative method to wiring the hardware together is threading it onto a necklace chain or string (like beads), and creating a unique pattern in this manner.

The first spring lecture of Columbia University's New York City Business History Forum will be given by communications historian Richard R. John on Wednesday, March 9 at 7:00pm in Butler Library, room 523. Professor John, of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, will present an illustrated lecture on "Antimonopoly: The Commercial Origins of an American Obsession." The talk is open to the public and a reception will immediately follow.
Big business critics have long warned of the dangers of economic consolidation, but so, too, have business leaders. Since the Gilded Age, vilified financiers like Jay Gould set the tone that prompted historians to term an entire generation of business leaders "robber barons." Professor John's lecture will show how in the nineteenth-century, American merchants, promoters, and industrialists popularized an antimonopoly tradition that still retains relevance today.
Professor John is a historian who specializes in the political economy of communications in the United States. He is the author of many essays and two books-- Spreading the News: The American Postal System from Franklin to Morse (Harvard, 1995) and Network Nation: Inventing American Telecommunications (Harvard, 2010). John has been a fellow at the Newberry Library in Chicago and the Smithsonian Institution's Woodrow Wilson Center in Washington, D. C., and has served as a visiting professor at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) in Paris. He is currently the president of the Business History Conference, an international professional society dedicated to the study of institutional history.
The Business History Forum is co-sponsored by Columbia Business School, Columbia Journalism School, the Herbert H. Lehman Center for American History, and the Rare Book & Manuscript Library. The Forum features speakers who address the past, present and future of industries that have been and, in many cases, continue to be important to the development of New York City, including accounting; finance; law; media; real estate/development; theater; and trade. It brings together academic experts, industry practitioners, students, and the public.
For further information, contact Eric Wakin, Lehman Curator for American History, email@example.com. To RSVP, please email email@example.com.
The Herbert H. Lehman Center for American History is dedicated to supporting and enhancing the study and teaching of American history at Columbia University. It places special emphasis on political history, the history of New York City and State, human rights history, and comparative and interdisciplinary work. The Center also promotes the study of the accomplishments of Herbert H. Lehman, the former governor of and senator from New York, whose papers are held as part of the Lehman Collection at Columbia University's Rare Book and Manuscript Library. The Director of the Herbert H. Lehman Center is Professor Kenneth T. Jackson, the Jacques Barzun Professor of History and Social Sciences at Columbia. For more information, please see: http://www.columbia.edu/cu/lehmancenter/
The Rare Book & Manuscript Library owns over 500,000 rare books in some 20 book collections and almost 28 million manuscripts in nearly 3,000 separate manuscript collections. It is particularly strong in English and American literature and history, classical authors, children's literature, education, mathematics and astronomy, economics and banking, photography, the history of printing, New York City politics, librarianship, and the performing arts. Individual collections are as eclectic as they are extensive. For more information, please see: /content/libraryweb/indiv/rbml.html

Should Barrington Hills, East Dundee mayors debate IAA?
Barrington Hills Village President Robert Abboud has taken to the airwaves to challenge East Dundee Village President Jerald Bartels to debate the merits of the Insurance Auto Auctions proposal.
This week, Abboud called into East Dundee Trustee Allen Skillicorn's AM radio show "Left Right and You" to talk about his trip to the IAA facility in Wheeling, his observations there, the complaint he filed against that location with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and the village's ties to East Dundee. Barrington Hills borders East Dundee.
Skillicorn and Abboud oppose IAA coming to East Dundee, saying they fear leaking fluids from vehicles will contaminate the local groundwater.
They also have talked about holding a town-hall meeting to better explain the project to East Dundee and Barrington Hills residents.
Skillicorn's co-host, Jeff Ward, invited Bartels to call in and talk to Abboud about the issue. Abboud also said he'd be more than happy to talk to Bartels on the radio -- Bartels doesn't listen to Skillicorn's show and wasn't aware of the invitation until after the fact.
Even so, Abboud, who owns a nuclear engineering company, says he's still more than happy to debate Bartels on the science of the IAA proposal.
"I do think that Mayor Bartels needs to focus less on his own politics and more on the science of what's going on here," Abboud said in a later interview.
But Bartels, who has a background in computer science, was a manager at an engineering firm and now sells engineering software, is not interested in matching wits with Abboud.
"It's obvious from his correspondence that he's implied we're moronic, that we don't have the expertise," Bartels said. "Mr. Abboud is not the authority on all facts, on all information and all science. He may not agree with that, but that's how it is."

Driver arrested in crash that hurt 1, blocked Business 40
Driver arrested in crash that hurt 1, blocked Business 40
A driver was arrested Wednesday following a crash that injured one person and blocked Business 40 east for about an hour.
Xavian Gerrod Byers, 26, was charged in the crash, which happened around 8:15 a.m. near the Forsyth/Guilford County line.
Byers' Ford SUV crashed into the back of a Pontiac G6, Kernersville police said. The car hit the embankment and flipped over, police said.
The Pontiac driver was taken to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. There is no word on the driver's condition.
Speed and weather conditions appear to be factors in the crash, police said.
Byers was charged with driving while license revoked and failure to reduce speed. He was held under a $1,000 bond.

Happy nearly Wednesday..... :) I posted this on lookbook on Sunday, but here is another outfit post from the weekend! I mentioned in my last post that I bought a few items from Zara when I went shopping on Oxford St. and this green jumper is one of them. These photos do not do it justice, it's like kind of a velvety material, I'm not really sure but it's so soft and lovely haha. I don't usually wear green but this was an exception, even though I kind of look like a walking Christmas advert or something, bit late for that in February. The shorts are vintage and I bought them a couple of years ago, still come in useful though. Let me know what you think. Oh and 400,000 page views has been reached........ what?! thank you! xx

Aloha! Was meaning to post this last night but fell asleep! Yesterday I spent the afternoon in London and went shopping, and managed to take some photos of my outfit before I went out :) I bought a few cute items from Zara which will probably be making an appearance on the blog soon. Anyway here is the dress (technically my sister's) but I bought it for her as a present haha (well, bought in terms of donated my store credits) but yeah it was hanging in her wardrobe and I couldn't resist. I love the detailing on the collar! It's definitely one of the better Romwe pieces in terms of quality and it's a pretty good fit too. I'm being lazy with the amount of photos, sorry! I promise to have more up next time, but I am too stressed and tired about exams to even bother ;P xx

Evil Twin
Heya!! It's officially half term, sorry for the lateness of this post! I had to post on lookbook a bit later too as it still has a few errors going on or something. But yeah, here is my new look, with a dress/cape thing by the brand Evil Twin. I didn't really capture the back of the dress in the pictures unfortunately, but basically it's a plain black dress with a cape that buttons up at the back :) It's quite different from anything I'd normally wear, but it's a really unique piece which is perfect for a nearly all black ensemble... complete with hat. London finally had some sun yesterday yay!! Which meant that I could finally resume to taking photos outside for a bit, it does get a bit tedious and boring when having to pose inside by a wall all the time. Hope you like the photos! xx

Mountain 2
Hiya guys :) Today I had to get up at like 7 or something ridiculous for a trade fair, so admittedly I am not in the best mood/ over tired when writing this, Saturdays are meant for sleeping!! :( I got this new crop top from ebay which was really cheap, only about £4 or something, but yeah I always love wearing them with highwaisted skirts/shorts and because it's long sleeved it's really versatile for the winter/spring which is a bonus. This mountain skirt was from Motel last year, it's one of those pieces that you can't wear too often as it's quite a statement, but nevertheless I am rewearing it on my lookbook ;D It's half term now, although I have some revision to be getting on with, I will definitely be blogging more often in the next week, so keep an eye out for more posts xxx

Jour (Deux)
Heya :) Just finished putting these photos together, I actually took them at the weekend (twice actually), I decided to reshoot them as the lighting was so bad the first time, but luckily it was find the second time round :) Anyway enough of boring you with my 'photography' troubles, here is the cutest jumper in the world *LINK* which is from In Dress Me. I don't even particularly like cats, I'm definitely more of a dog person - however the glasses just stole my heart and I had to order it! I decided to just wear it with some jeans, these are the highwaisted ones from Primark and I would really recommend them as I said ages ago, so much cheaper than topshops and basically the same thing :) These are a recent purchase because I decided to buy them in black too. Hope you like the photos and I tried to post on lookbook but there is a bug I think, lost 50 hype in a minute #sadtimes xxx
Sunday, 10 February 2013
Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend!! Just a quick outfit post to update the blog and can't believe I have nearly 1,500 followers on google connect now, so crazy haha. Thank you all for your support!! Here are just a few photos of my outfit consisting of a chiffon shirt with clouds on it and a yellow/gold velvet skirt. This velvet skirt arrived on Saturday and it is one of my favourite new additions!! I haven't seen one like it, I already own a red one like it but yeah, you can never have too much velvet anyway. I decided to pair it with a black shirt, just because I love wearing yellow/gold and black together, something that always works in my opinion :) Anyway enjoy and more posts coming sooon xxx
Wednesday, 6 February 2013
As you can tell I am lacking inspiration for titles... I have resulted to 'Hayer'. Here are the last two photos that I will post from the shoot, I decided to make the last one black and white, idk why I just never have any black and white photos, so there you go :) I am currently sipping my orange squash comtemplating whether to start my german homework or not... probably will never, I am far too preoccupied with biscuits and lookbook for now, old habits die hard. Anyway enjoy the photos, thanks for your comments in advance!! xx
Monday, 4 February 2013
Hiya everyone :) It's so weird blogging on a school night but here you go, earlier I received these images from a shoot I did a while back, and thought one of them would make a cute lookbook :) It was the shoot that I won from that modelling competition and it was really fun and I am so pleased with the results. I don't want to post too many images at once because I am planning to post another one to lookbook some time soon! So for now here are two photos (probably my favourites) Let me know what you think and hope my huge face doesn't scare you in the second one ;) xx
Sunday, 3 February 2013
Hola ;) I managed to take some outfit photos yesterday before anticipating to leave the house... until I stepped outside and realised it was not weather appropriate. This outfit reminds me of what I wear to school on a daily basis with a shirt underneath the jumper, we are forced to wear 'suits' so this skirt is my solution for this :) It's also a really nice shape I think and is perfect for tucking in my jumpers which are always a bit too big for me. My parents have been away in Morocco for the past week so I have had to fend for myself.. involving taking public transport to school (the horror of waking up at 6:30 still haunts me) and actually having to cook myself food. Haha anyway they returned today and I have survived! Yesterday was my best friend Ann-Marie's birthday so we had a little celebration thing in the evening so that was cute too. Anyway here is my outfit and excuse the second photo,thought it was quite amusing, happily adjusting my hair ;) xx

Local real estate investor and developer Henry Rodriguez has been elected the head of the Sarasota Manatee Airport Authority.
Rodriguez, who was appointed to the authority board that governs the Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport in 2010, will serve as chairman until November of this year.
He replaces Bob Waechter, who was charged with a felony late last year after allegedly stealing the identity of a political rival.
"I am very happy to be selected to serve as chair and look forward to continuing my service to the airport and our community," Rodriguez said in a statement.
Other members of the board include Leslie Wells, vice chairman; Jack Rynerson, secretary; together with Dr. Gary Kompothecras, Peter Wish and homebuilder Carlos Beruff.
In addition to the airport authority, Rodriguez serves on the boards of Enterprise Florida, the state's economic development agency, and Space Florida.
He was chairman of Gov. Rick Scott's transition team for policy and economic development and was a member of former Gov. Charlie Crist's transition team for economic development.
A graduate of Broward Community College, Rodriguez is the chairman, founder and CEO of Woodmere Capital Group, a Sarasota-based real estate investment firm.
In all, Woodmere has sold more than 1 million square feet of commercial space and 2,500 residential units, according to the company's website.
Among its more notable projects is the Walmart Supercenter in Osprey.

LU Holm Memorial Scholarship honors educational icon
Family and friends of Belle Mead Holm have established a Lamar University scholarship that pays tribute to the pioneering educator, administrator and advocate for women's athletics. The Dr. Belle Mead Holm Memorial Scholarship will be awarded to dance or kinesiology students at the university.
"Dr. Holm was an inspiration to everyone who knew her – friend, student, colleague. Her vision was extraordinary, and that guided all of us to pursue our personal goals as well as those of her programs in dance, kinesiology and athletics," said Pat Park, a former coach of golf, tennis, basketball and softball under Holm's leadership at Lamar. "The recipients of this scholarship will be challenged to attain their highest educational goals."
After Holm's death in January 2010, Park and Regina Myers, a former student of Holm, headed efforts to raise funds to create an endowment in the Lamar University Foundation.
Holm's leadership skills led her to become Lamar University's women's athletic director and department head for health, physical education, recreation and dance for 19 years. When she arrived at Lamar in 1964, Holm found a young, yet budding women's athletic program that she cultivated and grew into teams that could compete on a national level. She started the highly successful women's tennis program and guided the team to a state championship in 1965.
A strong advocate of women's athletics, Holm held positions in state and national organizations, wrote articles and presented lectures. In 1971, she served as board chairman of the Texas Foundation of Intercollegiate Athletics, the forerunner to the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women.
Holm was chairperson of Dance in Higher Education for the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance; co-founded the Maureen Connally Brinker Foundation for Junior Tennis Foundation; and worked with Eunice Kennedy Shriver in the development of Special Olympics.
She was instrumental in the formation of the Southland Women's Conference, serving as president of its executive committee. The conference began competition in the fall of 1983 and merged with the Southland Conference a year later.
Holm earned numerous awards and recognitions during her tenure at Lamar, including induction into the Southland Conference Hall of Honor, 1999; Cardinal Hall of Honor, 1996; Southeast Texas Women's Hall of Fame in Education, 1985; and Kitty Magee Lectureship Honor Award as an outstanding Texas Woman's University alumna in physical education, 1989.
She was a patron of the arts, a student and scholar of Texas history, collector of artifacts, student of archaeology, a lover of nature and an avid fisherperson. Her expertise in Texas history, archaeology and geography became so well known that she became a lecturer at elder hostels throughout Texas after her retirement in 1987.
As an artist, Holm hand-carved masks decorated with artifacts that depict ancient man; the masks have been shown in galleries and have received national accolades.
Holm was born Aug. 29, 1925, in Fruita, Colo., to Mae Fellows Mead and Perry Avery Mead of Odessa. A graduate of Odessa High School, she attended Lord Belmont Finishing School and earned her bachelor of science at Peabody University. Holm earned her master of science from Vanderbilt University and was the first person to receive a doctorate in dance and related arts from Texas Woman's University.
Holm began her professional career as a teacher at Odessa High School and later began building an intercollegiate sports and activities program at Odessa College. Her success was evident with a national title in men's tennis and nationally recognized women's golf and tennis teams. In addition, Holm formed the Odessa College Senoritas de las Roses Drill Team.

June 18, 2018 - By Maria Brooks
Shares of EKORNES ASA NK 1 (FRA:EKF) last traded at 14.38, representing a move of -0.69%, or -0.1 per share, on volume of 100 shares. After opening the trading day at 14.38, shares of EKORNES ASA NK 1 traded in a close range. EKORNES ASA NK 1 currently has a total float of shares and on average sees 16 shares exchange hands each day. The stock now has a 52-week low of 10.75 and high of 14.48.
According to the World Trade Organization (WTO), Germany is the largest exporter worldwide. What plays a big role in this feat is the German equity market. And this fact allows EKORNES ASA NK 1 to survive any economic crisis.
Germany is Europe's largest economy and without a doubt, the German Stock Exchange is also one of the biggest and most influential stock exchanges in the region. The economic success of Europe over the past decades can mostly be attributed to the German Stock Exchange.
EKORNES ASA NK 1 ability to show constant income gives it a lot of trust among German market players. The major components of the German Stock Exchange are the BÖAG Börsen AG, the Börse Berlin-Bremen, Frankfurt Stock Exchange or FWB Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse, and the Stuttgart Stock Exchange or Börse Stuttgart.
The BÖAG Börsen AG, overseeing trade in Hamburg and Hanover, was established in September 1, 1999 following the consolidation of the Hamburg Stock Exchange and the Hanover Stock Exchange.
On the other hand, the Börse Berlin-Bremen, overseeing trade in Berlin-Charlottenburg, was established in 2003 following the consolidation of the Berlin Stock Exchange and the Börse Bremen.
Meanwhile, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, overseeing trade in Frankfurt, is the largest among all components of the German Stock Exchange. Roughly 80% of the total market capitalization in the country is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
Lastly, Stuttgart Stock Exchange is the next biggest component. Most of the prominent financial companies in Germany are listed on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange. There is also a space for EKORNES ASA NK 1.
The German Stock Index, commonly known as the Deutsche Aktien Xchange (DAX) 30, is the benchmark index in the country.
DAX 30 weighs 30 German blue chip stocks in terms of market capitalization. Because it tracks the 30 biggest companies listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, DAX 30 is one of the most valuable economic indicators in Germany. Not only does it attest to the health of national economy but it is also very telling of investor sentiment. It is an efficient tool in predicting equity market movements as well.
DAX 30 has a base value of 1,000. Its movement is in 0.50 increments. The margin requirement is usually 2% while the trade size requirement is always at least one index. The main trading currency on DAX 30 is euro.
Presently, XETRA, an electronic trading calculator, computes index prices after every second.
There are two versions of DAX 30 quoted in the present— the price index and the performance index.
The price index had reached its all-time high of €8,736 in 2013. Meanwhile, its all-time low of €3,589 had been recorded in 2009— shortly after the onslaught of the Global Financial Crisis of 2008.
In March 2015, the performance index had hit the 12,000 mark. By the following month, it had posted its best intraday high of 12,390.75. During that session, it had closed at its all-time high of 12,374.73. The performance index has an all-time low of 372.30, a level not seen since 1974.
With the DAX 30 being the future of the European economy, it only makes sense for investors to invest in DAX 30 stocks. That is why EKORNES ASA NK 1 sees its bright future with DAX. Betting on a global economy giant is definitely a key to success.

Would a school counselor have detected the shooter's mounting frustrations before he attacked? Should students have reacted more forcefully in their own defense?
As more details trickle out about the shooting rampage Monday morning that claimed the lives of six students and a receptionist at Oikos University in Oakland, criminologists, behavioral experts, and others are trying to glean possible patterns and lessons from the episode.
Police say they have established several ostensible motives – from the suspect having been teased for bad English, to his despair over the recent deaths of two family members, to a combination of factors.
Oakland Police Chief Howard Jordan told reporters Tuesday that the suspect – a South Korean national, 43-year-old One Goh – had recently been expelled from the university, for his apparent inability to curtail his own anger. He said Goh was being congenial with police interrogators but showed no regret for the murders.
Several students, interviewed on NBC, said that Goh, being from South Korea, didn't fit in because of the language barrier.
Six of the victims were women, foreign nationals from Nepal, Korea, the Philippines, and Nigeria.
"This shooting does seem to be a rather typical 'going postal' killing, [with] many similarities to other shootings … indebtedness, depression, alienation … [a] sense of injustice and hopelessness," says Emil Chiaberi, director of the 2010 documentary film, "Murder By Proxy: How America Went Postal," via e-mail.
"The frustration tends to build up over a period of time. Like other mass killers, this person didn't just snap, but had meticulously planned the shooting," he says.
Mr. Chiaberi and others say one factor that has not been given much attention in America is bullying among adults.
Chiaberi says bullying tends to be the main driving factor in most mass killing incidents, quoting a Zogby poll that found close to 50 million people experienced bullying in the workplace.
"It's a huge problem. It's really a hidden epidemic. Workplace killings are just a tip of the iceberg, because only a very tiny percentage of people who experience bullying resort to violence," says Chiaberi. "Same could be said about schools. The real problem is that somehow our culture produces a lot of depressed, powerless, alienated, angry, and hopeless individuals who blame others (employers or society) for their problems."
Jesse Klein, assistant professor of criminal justice at Adelphi University and author of "The Bully Society: school shootings and the crisis of bullying in America's schools," says of 191 school shootings from 1979-2011, 30 percent that were related to expulsion or suspension were directed at administrators, and 50 percent involved challenges to masculinity.
"Students picked up guns to protest being disrespected," she says, noting it is quite common, as in the Oakland case, to have more than one reason.
Dr. Chuck Williams, director of the Center for the Prevention of School-Aged Violence at Drexel University, says the growing number of such incidents points to the dramatic need for counseling programs.
"Not in the history of this country have we had as many of these incidents as in the past several years," he says. If the school had had a counselor to advise Goh, it might have made all the difference, says Williams, because the counselor would have picked up all the signs of Goh's reasons for anger and depression.
"The counselor needs to make sure someone who is let go like Goh has a transition plan. They need to ask about future plans and goals and if the person is OK with his termination," says Williams. "We are finding out too many times after it's too late that they are not OK and are coming back to kill to make a point."
Spurred by the growing numbers of such incidents, police at Otterbein College in Ohio have begun taking a proactive approach. It includes threat assessment teams that meet every other week to discuss any issues with students such as anger management and mental health issues that hopefully will be able to detect a potential danger before it becomes an issue.
The approach includes training courses several times each year for students, faculty, and administrators in how to deal with a shooting attack, demonstrating the options of running, hiding, barricading – and attacking the shooter if no other option exists.
In the Oikos University killings, the victims were lined up and shot execution-style, meaning the attack-the-shooter option would perhaps have been the most effective, says Larry Banaszak, the Otterbein chief of police.
"No matter if it's high schools or colleges and universities, we need to have training to be able to respond to these incidents as they happen," says Mr. Banaszak, via email.
"Prevention is good and fine but these incidents have happened in the past, are happening in the present and will continue to happen in the future," he says. "We can't keep putting our heads in the sand and pretending like it can't happen here. The shooter lined people up along the wall. There needs to be training for people to react as soon as the threat is recognized."

If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: Toward the end of the summer, the CSA allots everyone with 10 lbs. of apples. It's difficult to find red apple recipes, because their sugar content makes them better for apple sauce. Also, our apartment doesn't have an air conditioner, thus the oven isn't turned on for baking apple desserts. However, this summer, besides making apple sauce, I loved tossing them in salads. Of course, a few were given away to friends. —SanuraJamila
Serves: 4 to 6 people as a side dish
4 to 6
ounces Gorgonzola cheese; roughly chopped
pound baby green or bitter salad leaves
1/8 to 1/4
cups toasted pine nuts
2 to 3
Crisp and fresh Macoun Apples; sliced
small red onion; thinly sliced
2 to 3
strips of duck or turkey bacon; fried to a crisp, roughly chopped
1 to 2
lemons; cut into quarters
Olive oil
Fig vinegar
Salt and fresh black pepper; to taste
- Gently toss gorgonzola cheese, greens, pine nuts, apples, red onion, salt, fresh black pepper, and bacon in a large bowl.
- Allow guests to help themselves to their share of the salad, and drizzle their own ratio of olive oil, fig vinegar, salt, fresh black pepper, and juice from the lemon quarters.

Patterns Game
Party games are just plain fun. But, they can also provide a rich learning environment where your child is gaining new skills alongside his friends. This circle game practices patterning and flexes your child's memory. It works best for 4 to 6 kids, but it can be adapted for larger groups.
Click to find similar content by grade or subject.
What You Need:
- Nothing — just a group of active kids
What You Do:
- Once seated in a circle, review with kids the definition of a pattern — something that happens over and over again. Then explain that you are going to play a memory game with patterns.
- You start: choose an action or a noise, such as slapping your knees twice. Now, it's the person to your right's turn. He must slap his knees twice, as you had done, and then add his own funny action, let's say he flaps his elbows like a chicken. That, then, is the pattern: I slap my knees, I cluck like a chicken, I slap my knees, I cluck like a chicken, etc...
- Then the third person goes around and adds his own action to the pattern. Everyone will go around the circle and pick a funny action or noise, but they must remember what comes before it.
- Once everyone has gone around the circle adding to the pattern, everyone must do the complete pattern at the same time together.
- Do another round with a different pattern. Running out of ideas for funny actions. Here are some suggestions:
- Wiggle your nose
- Mime shampooing your hair
- Shake your head
- Jump straight up in the air
- Bark like a dog
- Whistle the first line of "Mary Had a Little Lamb"
- Do a funny dance move
- Because this game is so physical, kids most likely won't even realize that they're learning about patterns!

Researchers on a £3 million research programme called "Cleaning Land for Wealth" (CL4W) are confident they'll be able to use flowers and plants to clean soil of poisonous materials (environmental remediation) and to recover platinum (phyto-mining). From the Nov. 21, 2012 news item on Nanowerk,
A consortium of researchers led by WMG (Warwick Manufacturing Group) at the University of Warwick are to embark on a £3 million research programme called "Cleaning Land for Wealth" (CL4W), that will use a common class of flower to restore poisoned soils while at the same time producing perfectly sized and shaped nano sized platinum and arsenic nanoparticles for use in catalytic convertors, cancer treatments and a range of other applications.
The Nov. 20, 2012 University of Warwick news release, which originated the news item, describes both how CL4W came together and how it produced an unintended project benefit,
A "Sandpit" exercise organised by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) allowed researchers from WMG (Warwick Manufacturing group) at the University of Warwick, Newcastle University, The University of Birmingham, Cranfield University and the University of Edinburgh to come together and share technologies and skills to come up with an innovative multidisciplinary research project that could help solve major technological and environmental challenges.
The researchers pooled their knowledge of how to use plants and bacteria to soak up particular elements and chemicals and how to subsequently harvest, process and collect that material. They have devised an approach to demonstrate the feasibility in which they are confident that they can use common classes of flower and plants (such as Alyssum), to remove poisonous chemicals such as arsenic and platinum from polluted land and water courses potentially allowing that land to be reclaimed and reused.
That in itself would be a significant achievement, but as the sandpit progressed the researchers found that jointly they had the knowledge to achieve much more than just cleaning up the land.
As lead researcher on the project Professor Kerry Kirwan from WMG at the University of Warwick explained:
"The processes we are developing will not only remove poisons such as arsenic and platinum from contaminated land and water courses, we are also confident that we can develop suitable biology and biorefining processes (or biofactories as we are calling them) that can tailor the shapes and sizes of the metallic nanoparticles they will make. This would give manufacturers of catalytic convertors, developers of cancer treatments and other applicable technologies exactly the right shape, size and functionality they need without subsequent refinement. We are also expecting to recover other high value materials such as fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, anti-oxidants etc. from the crops during the same biorefining process."
I last mentioned phyto-mining in my Sept. 26, 2012 post with regard to an international project being led by researchers at the University of York (UK). The biorefining processes (biofactories) mentioned by Kirwan takes the idea of recovering platinum, etc. one step beyond phyto-mining recovery.
Here's a picture of the flower (Alyssum) mentioned in the news release,From the Wikipedia essay (Note: I have removed links],
Alyssum is a genus of about 100–170 species of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae, native to Europe, Asia, and northern Africa, with the highest species diversity in the Mediterranean region. The genus comprises annual and perennial herbaceous plants or (rarely) small shrubs, growing to 10–100 cm tall, with oblong-oval leaves and yellow or white flowers (pink to purple in a few species).

Pulsations (5.18.12)
Here are the latest Pulsations, links to fresh stories and visuals about Japan, shout-outs to fellow bloggers, and highly clickable stuff that we think you might enjoy.
In no particular order, they are . . .
- Why do gaijin clash on the issue of racism in Japan? (From Loco in Yokohama): The "micro-aggressions" discussion, started by the notorious Mr. Debito, has been tearing up the expat community for the last couple of weeks, leaving some of us feeling like the child of a soon-to-be divorced couple, standing in the middle of the room screaming "STOP FIGHTING!" If that's you, let Loco explain to you why everybody's mad.
- How to dress like Lady Gaga in Tokyo (from Tokyo Telephone): This week Tokyo was graced by the presence of her monster-ness Lady Gaga. No big surprise that she looooves shopping in Tokyo. Tokyo Telephone shopped in her footsteps.
- Taboo Tattoo: The current state of ink in Japan (from Spoon & Tamago): Osaka's rebel mayor Toru Hashimoto felt compelled to point out that Lady Gaga wouldn't be able to get a job with the Osaka government. Of course, Ms. Gaga's credentials as a bureaucrat are impeccable, it's just that Mr. Hashimoto doesn't like her tattoos.
- Japanese web design: Why you so 2003? (from Tofugu): "Tonight we gon' be coding like it's nineteen ninety nine," sang the designers while they filled their web sites with text.
- The history of the Gyaru (from Neojaponisme): Yes, we know it's Friday and you're a little tired for something long and thoughtful. For now, go check out the redesign at Neojaponisme. You can save the long-read about the history of the gyaru female sub-culture for a lazy Sunday.

Well said by Allan R. Coletta, author of a new book The Lean 3P Advantage: A Practitioner's Guide to the Production Preparation Process. Development of the 3P process is attributed to Chichiro Nakao, a former Toyota group manager and the founder of Shingijutsu company. The accepted meaning of 3P is Production, Preparation, Process.
Allan is a chemical engineer with an extensive background in manufacturing operations, supply chain and engineering, gained while working in the chemical process and healthcare diagnostics industries. Allan is a practitioner more so than an author, and I believe you will enjoy that perspective in the podcast.
Toyota delivers product designs on schedule 98% of the time (as stated by @flowchainsensei on twitter). Now, I am not sure how I can confirm this statement except that I believe this source to be accurate and even if Bob was 50% wrong, it would mean Toyota still exceeds the majority. However, after interviewing Allan and reading the book, I can understand and believe that statement. This is an excerpt from the book:
Lean 3P is a powerful enabler for invention and innovation because it creates a structure and a process for people to create both independently and collaboratively. However, 3P is not presented as a "one size fits all" means of creating brilliant new products that takes us from "blue sky" to product launch. It might work like that in some instances where a new product is a variation of an established product or in organizations where the same team is inventing, developing, and working together to launch a new product. With additional experience the role of 3P in the full product development will likely expand. For companies new to Lean 3P, the question might be how 3P will integrate into existing product development processes.
A recent blog post, Applying Lean in the Lean 3P Design Process contains a written excerpt from the podcast.

I talked to Allan for a rather long time and had to shorten the podcast. I chose to cut his acknowledgments of several people that include Andy Johnson, Maria Stopher, Ken Rolfes and two former Business901 podcast guests, Drew Locher and Ron Masticelli. I apologize to any that he mentioned and I failed to here.
Allan's Lean experience started while serving as Site Manager for ICI Uniqema's largest Specialty Chemicals plant in North America and continued to expand is his role as Senior Director of Engineering for Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics. His passion for manufacturing and engaging people in continuous improvement continues to grow through personal application of Lean principles. Allan serves on the Delaware Manufacturing Extension Partnership's Fiduciary and Advisory Boards, and is a member of the Delaware Business Mentoring Alliance. He is also a member of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers and the Association for Manufacturing Excellence (AME).

Meeting in the European Council on 26-27 June, EU leaders decided on their candidate for President of the European Commission. They also discussed a strategic agenda for the EU, the peace plan proposal in Ukraine and congratulated Greece on the main achievements of its presidency.
The European Council adopted the decision proposing to the European Parliament Jean Claude Juncker as President of the European Commission after a formal vote by qualified majority.
The decision follows the extensive discussions Herman Van Rompuy had with the main European Parliament parties and member states' representatives to identify the best possible candidate for the job .
The European Council decided to meet again on 16 July to discuss the nominations for the other top EU positions .
At a specific event in Ypres on 26 June, to mark the centenary of the outbreak of World War I, EU leaders discussed the future of the EU, its priorities and purpose in the years to come .
They agreed on a strategic agenda which focuses on 5 main objectives and the means to achieve them:
Leaders repeated their commitment to reforms and fiscal consolidation, but also their will to carry out the investments needed for the future. To balance fiscal discipline with the need to support growth, the EU's existing fiscal framework offers possibilities which should be used.
President Van Rompuy said: "We are all committed to the Stability and Growth Pact and that it is a matter of making best use of the flexibility that is built into the existing Stability and Growth Pact rules ."
"We are all committed to the Stability and Growth Pact and that it is a matter of making best use of the flexibility that is built into the existing Stability and Growth Pact rules", saidPresident Van Rompuy.
EU leaders welcomed President Poroshenko's peace plan . But the European Council regrets that the cease-fire has not led to the full cessation of military hostilities.
Regarding sanctions , the European Council is committed to reconvene at any time to adopt further significant restrictive measures if a detailed list of concrete steps are not taken by Russia and the separatists by Monday 30 June :
In summary, while on the face the
media feature may look useful for authors, in practice the information that an author can get from querying this feature is limited (in the case of
) and only applicable in some very specific situations (for
The more I've played around with high contrast, the more I am convinced that the best way to think of it is as a "custom colors" media query or "accessible colors" media query. Basically, a warning that the user is over-riding your color scheme. It could be used to turn off custom colors or graphical effects, but should not lead to any assumptions about what color scheme is preferred. If you're going to use it to colors, such as in an SVG or canvas graphic, I think the best approach is to use the CSS System Colors keywords ( https://www.w3.org/TR/css3-color/#css-system ) to match the colors that the browser will automatically apply to the rest of your page. The following CSS system colors are updated in MS Edge Firefox to match the corresponding colors in the Windows High Contrast Mode (WHCM) dialog:
There is no CSS named color that corresponds to the Hyperlinks text color in WHCM. MS Edge applies the WHCM to hyperlinks regardless, but Firefox uses the default blue color. CSS System Colors test case with SVG color swatches for each color:
Ariat Maxtrak UL Bungee Lace Trail Shoe Womens 2Tvju3
Unfortunately, Firefox does not respond to the (-ms-high-contrast) media query, and does not have their own -moz- media query for custom color modes. If you're using the media query to fix color schemes or images, they won't see any of your adjustments.
"It could be used to turn off custom colors or graphical effects" however – if we're talking about the HTML/CSS side here – these are already turned off /overridden by virtue of the high contrast mode itself being active.
CSS system colours were brought up in discussions leading up to this blog post. Though officially deprecated in CSS 3 (something which I incidentally questioned all the way back in 2005
Madden Girl Effiiee eIKUAQ179
), these do indeed still work in IE and Edge.
Greg Whitworth has written up a response to this blog post: How to use -ms-high-contrast Some excellent information about and the use of the (deprecated, though still working) CSS system color identifiers. And the main take-away for me is: use the media query as a high-level indication that the user is indeed in high contrast mode, and if needed use CSS system colors to ensure certain colors are applied.
But I still stand by the fact that / are mostly pointless since they only apply to two very specific scenarios.
For , I guess the reason for them is that these are the two most popular schemes among the users of High Contrast theme. You can provide optimised image resources for these users. My personal blog uses them extensively. For most screenshots exhibited in my entries, I provide four versions — non HC, BoW, WoB, and a fall back version. Usually the fall back version is generated by taking the screen shot of HC#1. But recently I have been using my own scheme.
Having available implies you are using a browser that should provide the colours to you, therefore it is safe to use CSS system colours.
The same logic applies to Windows app development — the XAML framework supports themed dictionaries, which includes 6 themes – light, dark, BoWHC, WoBHC, CustomHC and AnyHC. Most of the time one only has to use light / dark + AnyHC.

Sectional draws rematch of rivals
INDIANAPOLIS — The brackets were drawn up and the postseason road was paved Sunday night for the 36th annual IHSAA girls' basketball state tournament.
Amongst 397 teams, three Whitley County teams are looking for a March 5 date at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne for the state finals. It began with the sectional draw Feb. 8-12.
Two area rivals will have to go through one another to reach the final game of class 3A.
Columbia City (10-9) and Whitko (9-10) opened the season against one another and it will end for one of them in the first round of the Columbia City sectional.
The two rivals are the third of three first-round games.
Columbia City has won the last three meetings against their southern county rivals. The last came Nov. 12 when the Lady Eagles won at home 65-59.
Wawasee (13-5) drew a first-round bye while first-round games include: Tippecanoe Valley (4-14) against Lakeland (3-14) and NorthWood (11-8) against West Noble (9-10).
Farther north, the class 2A Prairie Heights sectional will have Churubusco (5-13) watching the first round while awaiting the winner of the hosting Panthers (7-11) and Fremont (10-8).
The other half of the bracket has Central Noble (3-15) also picking up the first- round bye with a match-up against the winner of the Garrett (18-2) and Eastside (9-8).
'Busco has played all five sectional opponents with a 1-5 record against them.
Sectional game times and ticket prices will be announced later this week.

So you really like the HTC EVO 3D, but you just can't stand the thought of owning yet another bland black phone? We may have some good news for you! RadioShack, Sprint, and HTC have teamed up to bring you a white HTC EVO 3D on September 9th. We're assuming that the white HTC EVO 3D specs have not changed and that RadioShack will be offering the phone at the same $199 price point with a new two-year agreement.
The news of the white EVO 3D follows the release of last weekend's white HTC DROID Incredible 2 at Best Buy. Last year's white EVO 4G was a huge success, so we won't be surprised if this new EVO 3D is in short supply for the first few weeks after its debut.
How many of you wish you had a white HTC EVO 3D? If manufacturers offered more color options for their phones, which color would you choose?
