Kia 2004 Optima Stalls when I put it in gear.
2004 Kia Optima 2.4l 16 Valves Problem :Car idle smooth but when I put it in gear it stalls and goes to backfiring.
The start of this problem the engine light came on to solve that problem I replaced mass air sensor ,Replaced ignition Coils, spark plugs,PCV valve, checked Timing Belt, replaced Fuel Rail and injectors.
3 Answers
My 2007 Kia Sorento is doing the same thing when I get on the highway it starts backfiring like crazy, I took it to the dealer who sees what it is doing but could not find the problem so they told me to come back when a light comes on...really I drive 90 miles a day to get to work I don't need to break down because they need a light on. It also stalled a while back and I put dry gas in it and that seem to work. The lights on dash also go off when put in gear.
Thank you, but mine is not backfiring (yet). However, I will try the dry gas. Good idea! I should have tried that first. Thanks again! Walt
It's backfiring when you put a light load on it... What codes did you get from the computer? Honestly, in my opinion, it sounds like maybe the camshaft position sensor maybe bad or messing up, maybe giving a wrong signal with the load of the transmission applied. But this is just speculation, pulling the codes and addressing the cause of whatever code you see is the best option.

Interview with Paivi Sutinen, director for City as a Service Development in Espoo
- forums
- knowledge society
- date
- 28-02-2019
We took a moment out to catch up with Päivi Sutinen, director for City as a Service Development in Espoo at the recent Nordic Edge Expo.
Share your own views and hear from other local leaders and city changers at our second mayors summit on 20 March.
Interested in the event? Please register here by 14 March.
How do you involve your citizens when you make decisions?
The first value of the city is that Espoo is resident- and client-oriented. Open participation and co-creation with our citizens are cornerstones of our city's strategy, 'the Espoo Story'. The strategy itself was produced in an innovative way with the active cooperation of our residents. For example, when we first started forming the Espoo Story in 2012, we collected nearly 20,000 comments from our residents, companies and other stakeholders. (For example, kindergarteners had a day as a mayor where they had a chance to tell how they would lead the city.)
The Espoo Story gets its name from the way the strategy is written. It describes where the city is coming from, where it is at the moment and what the vision and future goals are for Espoo.
Digitalisation and new technologies can truly help us to answer the future challenges in a sustainable way, but the change starts with the people, not with the technology. The real question is how we can build sustainable living environments for our residents and companies. Espoo has been for couple of years the most sustainable city in Europe and now we are part of UN's SDG leading cities programme.
In Espoo we include the whole community, companies, third sector, research institutions and citizens. Espoo's innovation community 'Espoo Innovation Garden' was chosen as the most intelligent community of the world 2018 by Intelligent Communities Forum.
We try to find new digital solutions through experimentation programmes, where we test new solutions and products with companies and citizens. Citizen participation and their feedback is very important not only for the city but of course for the companies.
Our libraries also do a great job providing residents an access to new technologies such as 3D printers, VR and AR glasses and so on. They also give guidance for customers how to use their own devices, for example how a grandmother can have a Facetime or Skype call with her grandchildren.
City as a service needs open data to fuel the development. We need to communicate openly and work together with citizens to answer ethical questions. Education is of course very important.
This Autumn Espoo's upper secondary school students will be allowed to hack the city's information systems. An ethical hacking course invites students to test the information security of the city's systems under development. The city of Espoo wants to show its social responsibility by providing young people with the opportunity to develop their hacking skills for a good cause. As a bonus, the city will receive valuable information about possible information security gaps and can utilise it in developing applications.
What are the three main challenges/ issues you had to fix in order to proceed towards your smarter city vision?
It always takes time to build understanding about new concepts and to form the bigger picture. The EU funded 'Six City Strategy', 6Aika, was a great way for us to solve the questions about what we mean when we talk about the 'smart city' and what it actually is, through cooperation with other big cities in Finland.
In Espoo we were able to move forward by connecting the smart city development to the bigger picture of 'city as a service', that sees development happening through different ecosystems. It's about smart community.
Getting the community involved is the key and sharing information. Our 'Make with Espoo' slogan welcomes everyone to join co-creation with the city and our Make with Espoo toolkit gives guidance and information for developers.
What would you recommend to other city leaders to consider before they start a smart city project or incentive?
Every incentive or project needs to be tightly connected to the city strategy. It's important that the focus is on essential strategical challenges and that all projects are resident and customer oriented.
Work together with other cities, find the best solutions together and share what you've learned.
Be brave and try to look more ahead to the future. Espoo wants to be a responsible pioneer and that's why we find our participation in the SDG cities programme so very important. It's not about what happens in this electoral term, it's about what happens 20, 30 years from now.

According to an article on our sister site Double X, The New York Times reported today that circumcision rates have declined drastically in the United States, from 56 percent in 2006 to 32.5 percent last year. What's the problem? Although the exact relationship between circumcision and the prevention of certain diseases — from AIDS on down — is not perfectly understood, it is clearly understood that societies in which the majority of boys are circumcised have lower rates of such diseases than other societies. If more circumcisions can lead to less disease, then why aren't more people having them?

Caught on Video: Suspect seen running away from Brown Deer Police after high-speed chase, crash
Posted: Oct 9, 2018 9:15 PM CDT
BROWN DEER, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Brown Deer Police are looking for one of two people who they say led them on a high speed chase last week.
Video from last Monday shows officers starting to chase a stolen BMW. After a few minutes, the car police are chasing pulls out of sight, only to show up on its side.
One person is then seen running away. Eventually, a second person climbs out of the car on its side with one hand up. That person is then taken into custody.
Brown Deer Police say they're still looking for the suspect who ran.

NCCN Guidelines for Patients® | Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
45 NCCN Guidelines for Patients ® : Myeloproliferative Neoplasms, 2018 5 Myelofibrosis Initial treatment What are clinical trials? One of your treatment choices may be to join a clinical trial. Joining a clinical trial is strongly supported. NCCN believes that you will receive the best management in a clinical trial. New tests and treatments aren't offered to the public as soon as they're made. They first need to be studied. A clinical trial is a type of research that studies a test or treatment in people. Clinical trials study how safe and helpful tests and treatments are for people. When found to be safe and helpful, they may become tomorrow's standard of care. Because of clinical trials, the tests and treatments in this book are now widely used to help people with MPN. Future tests and treatments that may have better results than today's treatments will depend on clinical trials. New tests and treatments go through a series of clinical trials. These trials aim to ensure they're safe and work. Without clinical trials, there is no way to know if a test or treatment is safe or helpful. Clinical trials have four phases. Some examples of the four phases for treatment are: Phase I trials aim to find the safest and best dose of a new drug. Another aim is to find the best way to give the drug with the fewest side effects. These trials often involve about 20 people. Phase II trials assess if a drug works for a specific type of cancer. These trials often involve 20 to 100 people. Phase III trials compare a new drug to a standard treatment. These trials often involve hundreds or thousands of people. Phase IV trials test drugs approved by the U.S. FDA ( F ood and D rug A dministration) to learn more about side effects with long-term use. Joining a clinical trial has benefits. First, you'll have access to the most current cancer care. However, please note that it is unknown how well new treatments work if at all. Second, you will receive the best management of care. Third, the results of your treatment—both good and bad—will be carefully tracked. Fourth, you may help other people who will have cancer in the future. Clinical trials have risks, too. Like any test or treatment, there may be side effects. Also, new tests or treatments may or may not improve your health. In fact, your health may worsen during a trial. Other downsides may include more hospital trips, paperwork, and extra costs for you. To join a clinical trial, you must meet the conditions of the study. Patients in a clinical trial are often alike in terms of their cancer and general health. Thus, if patients improve, it's because of the treatment and not because of differences between them. To join, you'll need to review and sign an informed consent form. This form describes the study in detail. The study's risks and benefits should be described and may include others than those described above. Ask your treatment team if there is an open clinical trial that you can join. There may be clinical trials where you're getting treatment or at other treatment centers nearby. You can also find clinical trials through the websites listed in Part 6.

The owners of Tiger Martial Arts Academy express great gratitude to Grandmaster William T. Norton as well as Grandmaster Myung (John) Kim for sharing their knowledge and expertise.
Grandmaster William T. Norton has studied martial arts since 1980 beginning with three years of Zenkido Kickboxing. Judo training, Tae Kwon Do, Hapkido and Grappling. He holds a 7th Degree Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, a 6th Degree Black Belt in Hapkido and is the Founder and Head Master of Kunindo. His school, Norton's Martial Arts was in operation from 1996 until 2013. The owners of Tiger Martial Arts all studied under Grandmaster Norton. Prior to starting Norton's Martial Arts, he was affiliated with Kim's Martial Arts School in North Ridgeville for many, many years, studying under Grandmaster Myung Kim.
Grandmaster Myung (John) H. Kim (5/26/1944 – 5/25/2000). Grandmaster Kim was born and raised in Seoul, South Korea during the Korean War, initially learning martial arts from his father. His first love was the art of judo, becoming the All Asia Judo Champion. During the 1960s, Grandmaster Kim began preparing for his master's degree in martial arts in order to be able to spread the art of Taekwondo. This was a worldwide effort by the World Taekwondo Federation to spread the art and sport of Taekwondo across the globe. Grandmaster Kim came to Fairview Park, Ohio, and started Kim's Martial Arts School in 1970. In many years since Kim's was founded, Taekwondo has grown from his single school to many branches, affiliates and offshoots, one of which is Tiger Martial Arts Academy. Grandmaster Kim was an 8th Dan Black Belt in Hapkido, an 8th Dan Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do and a 7th Dan Black Belt in Judo.

When I worked in Cardiff I used to travel down the A470 from Tredegar and would take Caerphilly Mountain road towards Pentwyn. I passed a sign for the Mountain View Ranch every day since the sign went up and always wondered what it was. One weekend, while wondering what to do with BattleKid, I looked it up. And discovered the Caerphilly Mountain Ranch was somewhere to take kids, so off we went. One of our main reasons for visiting – hunting a Gruffalo at the Mountain View Ranch.

Brecon Mountain Railway – Brilliant for Train Fans
So, you've got a train-mad little boy, a nice sunny day in South Wales and nothing planned of a Saturday morning. What do you do? You visit the Brecon Mountain Railway of course.
The Brecon Mountain Railway is situated just a few minutes from Merthyr Tydfil and is a railway with a steam engine to thrill the hearts of any train fan. It is also located just 15 minutes from our South Wales home and was somewhere we had been meaning to visit but hadn't until last year.
Running from Pant to Torpantau, the Brecon Mountain railway follows part of the original route of the Brecon and Merthyr Railway which closed in 1964. It takes you into the Brecon Beacons, through Pontsticill and along the full length of the Taf Fechan Reservoir before climbing up to Torpantau high in the Brecon Beacons.
On the day we visited the Brecon Mountain Railway, we drove to the Pant Station, parked up and bought our tickets in the office before making our way to the platform. We passed the locomotive running shed and workshop on the way to the platform and the smell was lovely. Grease, oil and engine smells. There is also a model railway as you approached the platform which BattleKid loved.
We waited patiently for our train, boarded and handed the conductor our tickets. The train left Pant Station and started its journey through the stunning Brecon Beacons towards Torpantau. We saw the peaks of Pen-y-Fan and the Pontsticill Reservoir.
Although it had been sunny when we left Pant, the clouds got thicker as we ascended towards Torpantau. We alighted the steam train and a certain little boy wasn't too sure about the steam coming from the engine.
The engine spends a few minutes changing around before everyone gets back on for the journey back to Pontsticill. There, you have 25 or 30 minutes to enjoy the views, have a refreshment in the small café or spend some at the playground, as we did. You can even spend longer there if you want to, and get a different train back. We chose not to.
Back at Pant Station, we visited the traditional sweet shop and bought some rhubarb and custards for BattleDad, his favourites, before heading home. Although we had only been at the Brecon Mountain Railway for less than 2 hours, it was a fun filled 2 hours. BattleKid thoroughly enjoyed his ride on the steam engine and his time at the playground.
Things to note if visiting the Brecon Mountain Railway
- There are 3 or 4 train journeys a day, depending on the time of year. There were three the day we visited.
- Adult tickets cost £14, children cost £7 (up to 15 years of age), and seniors cost £12.50 return. Under 3's are free.
- There is ample parking at the Pant Station and it is free.
- The Brecon Mountain Railway is mostly wheelchair and buggy friendly, although wheelchairs are limited to manual ones and cannot leave the train at Torpantau Station.
- There are toilets at both Pant and Pontsticill Station and baby changing facilities.
- There is a tea room at both Pant and Pontsticill Stations.
- There is a gift shop at Pant, while the Steam Museum (which is free) is located at Pontsticill Station.
- A children's playground is located at Pontsticill Station, which we can highly recommend for young children.
- The Brecon Mountain Railway also holds special days throughout the year such as for Easter, Mother's and Father's Day. They also hold Santa Special Trains throughout the month of December.
- Trains run non-stop to Torpantau and return to Pontsticill for 25 or 30 minutes. Passengers are allowed to stay longer at Pontsticill and get a different train back to Pant station.
- For timetables and up-to-date news, it is best to check the Brecon Mountain Railway website.
We thoroughly enjoyed our few hours on the Brecon Mountain Railway and would highly recommend it for families as a day out in South Wales. It would particularly appeal to Thomas fans and fans of trains in general.

Dragon Hunting at Chepstow Castle
Although BattleKid and I had visited once before, we had never been dragon hunting at Chepstow Castle until earlier this year. When my nephew and Dad were visiting when BattleKid was 4 months old, we took a drive to Chepstow Castle. However, I couldn't explore the castle as BattleKid was so small and I had his buggy. Fast forward three years and we, as a family, finally visited this wonderful castle on the banks of the River Wye.
Our sole intention this time was to not only explore the castle, it being BattleDad's first visit, but also to do a spot of dragon hunting at Chepstow Castle. We were sure there must be a dragon lurking inside as we'd found dragons in other Welsh Castles like Carreg Cennen.
Dragon Hunting at Carreg Cennen Castle
One of the things I wanted to do with BattleKid before we left the UK for Portugal was to visit as many castles in South Wales as we could. We love nothing more than getting out and doing a spot of dragon hunting while we explore old castles and forts. So, while BattleDad was away one weekend, I did a search for castles in South Wales and came upon one which looked great from the picture. And so it was that we went dragon hunting at Carreg Cennen Castle, just me and the boy.
35/52 My Sunday Photo: 27/08/2017
One place I really wanted to visit in Wales before we left the UK was St. Fagan's and not long before we departed, that's exactly what we did. I was so glad we did as it is an amazing place to wander around. We spent a full day there and didn't get to see all of it. I'll be writing all about our visit soon.
This cottage, with the smoke coming out of its chimney, really caught my eye. It reminded me of my parents second home in Galway, Ireland, before they sold it. The walls were white, and during the winter there was always a fire going in the house. But they were lucky enough not to have a thatched roof. I didn't spend a lot of time in that house but there was something special about it. It is now gone, replaced by a home in Portugal for their retirement instead. I'd say that's a good trade-off.

Where to Shop
Many clothing stores carry items that would work well for a boho chic look. Secondhand stores, in particular, often provide enthusiasts with a range of wardrobe materials and fit well with the origins of the style. Such stores often carry scarves, unconventional patterns, plaid skirts, and a variety of other items that can be used to create a unique style. The mixing of old and new is a common feature of bohemian fashion, and wearing clothing from traditionally different styles or eras can give each piece a new life and purpose.

Teradata Has Been Named One of the Wo . . .
It's a small world after all
It all Started with 'CARE' – Reasons . . .
What It Means To Partner With A World . . .
Now, before the punctilious amongst us zoom in to make the point that this is not an exhaustive list (and it isn't) it is safe to say that on any given day, a data scientist grapples with a good number of these functions.
Every analytics persona has or should have the same goal: How do we ensure that the organization we work for is better able to achieve significant business outcomes?
Not surprisingly, this is why Teradata created and delivered Vantage to the market. These pressures noted above that a data scientist routinely faces in his or her quotidian tasks are serious and ones that tend to exert a toll on his or her capability to produce impactful business outcomes. Vantage is the analytics platform that ensures:
Data connectivity ease through native data stores as well as a QueryGrid high-speed data fabric that provides connectivity to external data sources in a data lake, third party enterprise systems, and other records of choice. This makes a measurable salutary impact on the data scientist's ability to get access to much needed data.
All this said, Vantage is not just for the data scientist. Despite the fact that we use this term to indicate a laughable monolith that the profession is not, we also built Vantage precisely because not everyone is or wants to be a data scientist. There are a few others who have embraced the more populist version of this profession called citizen data scientists. Citizen data scientists, business analysts and pure business management types all have a common skein of character running through their professional work. They all want to make decisions that are driven by facts and data much like Sergeant Friday would prefer. Vantage is our effort to transform the investments in analytics that ultimately delivers answers that the business can consume, understand, and profit from. That is why we have a new tag line; one that is our creed and one that is our raison d'etre – "Invest in Answers".

J Bradford Delong says this based on his recent book on role of public policy ideology in decline of US economy:
Since the mid-1970s, the US has ramped up spending on health-care administration by about 4% of GDP and increased expenditure on overtreatment by about 2% of GDP. Countries like Canada, the United Kingdom, and France have not followed suit, and yet they do just as well – if not better – at ensuring that their citizens stay healthy.
Meanwhile, over the same period, the US has redirected spending away from education, public infrastructure, and manufacturing toward providing incentives for the rich – mostly in the form of tax cuts. The US spends 10% more than it used to on making it easier for the rich to accumulate wealth, but it has cut public investment in physical and human capital by roughly 4% of GDP, compared to what would have been expected if spending patterns had followed historic trends.
Forty years ago, for example, the US spent roughly 4% of its GDP on finance. Today, it spends twice that. And the results have been catastrophic. Despite the plutocracy's claims that the heads of financial companies and other CEOs deserve their increasingly outsized compensation packages, there is no evidence that they are doing a better job than they used to at running their companies or allocating capital more efficiently. On the contrary, the lion's share of the responsibility for the economy's continuing struggles can be comfortably laid at the feet of America's hypertrophied, dysfunctional financial sector.
This reallocation of investment is usually attributed to efforts to boost growth. And yet, regardless of how much one tortures the baselines or massages the benchmarks, it is clear that it has failed. Indeed, it is difficult to see the decisions of the past 40 years as anything other than a profound failure on the part of the public institutions responsible for shaping the country's economic progress.
This is a surprising development. Until around 1980, these institutions were clearly world-class. For more than 200 years, the US government was highly successful at expanding opportunity and nurturing economic growth.
What explains this?
It is only relatively recently that the bets have started being misplaced. The past 40 years of policies have failed to produce a richer society; they have produced only a richer elite.
Not surprisingly, ideologues of the left and the right disagree over what went wrong. The left, quite credibly, blames the idea that the free market is always right and needs to be unchained, and that those it rewards are always deserving. Those on the right, less credibly, attribute the decline to the survival and expansion of America's (comparatively meager) social-welfare system. Programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, the Earned Income Tax Credit, unemployment insurance, and disability insurance, they argue, have turned the US into a country of takers, not makers.
In a new book, Concrete Economics: The Hamilton Approach to Economic Growth and Policy, my co-author Steve Cohen and I show that the problem is even more fundamental. Poor US economic performance is not the result of any particular ideology, but of allowing ideologues to guide public policy.
The real-world purpose of an ideology is not to provide understanding, but to offer its adherents a sense of certainty as they navigate a complex world. An ideology becomes successful not by suggesting policies that work, but by helping people feel comfortable, happy, and sure of what they are doing.
Cohen and I argue that there is a better alternative to the ideological approach: pragmatism. Rather than searching for overarching rules or a grand theory, look instead for what is likely to work – and make policy accordingly.
We have named this approach after the US founder who was most adept at adjusting his policy prescriptions to reality. But it is a method of decision-making that has had numerous champions throughout the country's history; US Presidents Dwight Eisenhower, Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln all placed pragmatism ahead of ideology.
As a contribution to popular culture, Concrete Economics is sure to prove less popular than the hip-hop musical Hamilton. But for policymakers seeking to turn around the American economy, we hope it will offer some much-needed guidance when approaching the challenges facing the country.
It is surprising and ironic how late people are realising the importance of pragmatism over theory in public policy. In quite a few cases, India (and other Asian countries) have ignored the economic theories and advices of the so called western experts. This was simply based on the idea that certain theories no matter how elegant they are, just don't work in the practical world.

A firefighter who battled the horrific Grenfell Tower blaze for hours has talked of the hell he and other brave colleagues were faced with.
One of the 250-strong crew of firefighters called in to tackle the Latimer Road fire said they were faced with a challenge like 'the Towering Inferno and 9/11 rolled into one'.
Terry, who has worked as a firefighter for 27 years, said the fire was the largest that London had seen since the Blitz during World War II.
He said: 'I was at that fire from 2am until 10am,' he said. 'When we turned up we could only see one side on fire but in a couple hours that whole building was engulfed.
'It was like The Towering Inferno and 9/11 rolled into one. To get in the building we were running a gauntlet of flying debris, and the police were using their riot shields.
'Me and my crew were involved in rescues. On the stairwells, on the way up to certain flats we were detailed to go to by fire survival guidance, people were coming down the stairs in smoke.'
'I don't know how they were breathing. We had breathing apparatuses on and we were basically carrying them down the stairs,' he told LBC.
'How a building can go from a fire in a flat, which we believe was on the lower floors, to literally 100% of the building on fire,' he said. 'It's unbelievable.'
Terry said he had never seen anything like the Grenfell Tower fire, comments echoed by London Fire Commissioner Dany Cotton.
She said: 'This is an unprecedented incident. In my 29 years of being a firefighter, I have never, ever seen anything of this scale.'
While Matt Wrack, the Fire Brigades Union's general secretary, said: 'This should not be happening, that's the horrible aspect of this incident.'
Many, including London Mayor Sadiq Khan, have already praised and thanked the selfless emergency services following the tower block fire which has claimed at least 12 lives.
Firefighters have not been able to conduct a comprehensive search of the 24-storey block of flats in west London that went up in flames because it is not safe for them to walk to the edges of the building, the fire brigade chief said today.
Authorities have confirmed 12 people died in the fire, which engulfed the Grenfell Tower at 1 a.m. on Wednesday, but the death toll is expected to rise.
'Some of the internal structures are not regarded as safe at the moment, however the central core is, so my firefighters have been up to the top floor last night, they have done the initial brief search from the doorways,' London fire chief Dany Cotton told ITV.
'So although we've been up there we haven't managed to do a comprehensive search and until we can make the building safe then I really don't want to risk the safety of my firefighters at this moment in time,' she said.
Cotton said structural surveyors and urban search and rescue specialists would inspect the building on Thursday and once it was declared safe a full search would take place.

Ormonde Mining plc is a mineral resource company with interests in Spain including a 30% interest in the Barruecopardo Tungsten Project.
The Company's vision is to be a successful, reputable natural resource company, committed to the responsible development of mining projects and the creation of value for our shareholders, employees and host communities.
Ormonde's core investment is its interest in the Barruecopardo Tungsten Project, and its primary short- to medium-term strategic goal is the delivery of steady-state production to provide the platform for future growth.
Ormonde's other interests include a joint venture participation in several prospective areas of gold exploration in western Spain, new gold permit applications in another area of western Spain, and its legacy interests related to the La Zarza copper-gold project which are currently being divested.
Ormonde's shares are traded on the Alternative Investment Market in London and Euronext Growth market in Dublin. The Company's headquarters are in the Republic of Ireland.
Barruecopardo Tungsten Project
Barruecopardo is a low cost tungsten project located in the safe and stable location of western Spain. Ormonde acquired Barruecopardo in 2005 and since then successfully defined, designed, permitted and arranged funding for the Project. This was agreed with Oaktree Capital Management in 2015 and consisted of a robust package of equity – US$44.4 million, and debt – $55.5 million. Ormonde retains 30% of the Project with Oaktree holding 70%.
Having developed and commissioned the mine, together with our joint venture partner, Oaktree, the Project is now transitioning into a one year ramp-up period, following which it is forecast to produce ~260,000 metric tome units of WO3 per year at steady state production.
Tungsten is an industrial metal with critical properties which include having the highest melting point, lowest vapour pressure and highest tensile strength of all metals. These and other properties result in there being limited or no substitutes available for most of its key applications, which include its use in the high speed cutting, drilling, pressing and moulding of materials of all types and strengths.

SAN DIEGO – The future of Qualcomm Stadium hangs in the balance after the Chargers were taken off the lease after the NFL team announced they were relocating to Los Angeles.
A group of local investors, led by FS Investors founder Mike Stone and former Qualcomm Vice Chairman Steve Altman, have a plan for the Mission Valley site and they will reveal details on Monday.
The group claimed to have exclusive negotiation rights with Major League Soccer for San Diego. They hinted at proposing a state of the art, joint-use stadium that would be the home of a future MLS expansion team and could also serve the San Diego State football team.
The new stadium would be a mixed-use sports and entertainment complex, setting aside land for an NFL stadium.
The group said they would not need taxpayer dollars for the project.

The History of Federal Government Shutdowns
You and the Government Shutdown
Is the Government Shutdown Affecting You?
Many people are flustered and upset.
It is the year 2013 and our Federal Government has now been shut down for 11 days.
This has caused much controversy and bewilderment.
I have heard so many people claim we need less government and now that we have it, many of those same people are screaming.
You would think that this is the first time in history this has ever happened. Not so.
The Federal Government has shut down before. Prior to 1996, government shutdowns were actually mild. Most employees kept working.
This shutdown scheme started when the modern congressional budget system started in 1976. Maybe we need to go back to a prior budget system.
Let's tale a look at the history of Federal Government shutdowns.
Gerald Ford who was Republican was President of the United States.
Democrats controlled both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
The issue was a funding bill for Departments of Labor and Health, Education, and Welfare.
On September 30th, Ford vetoed the bill which sent the government into a partial shutdown. On October 1st, Congress overrode the veto, but it took until October 11th, for all funding gaps to take place.
Here is the link to this resolution.
Jimmy Carter was the Democrat President.
Both the House and the Senate were Democrat controlled.
The Democrats in the House of Representatives wanted to keep a ban on medicaid paying for abortions. The Democrats in the Senate wanted to loosen this and allow and allow it for rape cases.
This caused another partial shutdown on Sept. 30th. The shutdown was over on October 13th. The House won with the ban standing until Oct. 31st to keep the government running.
The dispute on this abortion raged on with Democrats against Democrats. On October 31st, another partial shutdown occurred. Jimmy Carter signed a temporary bill giving time for the leaders to figure it out. The partial shutdown was over on November 9th.
Shutdown #3
Wow, Democrats made themselves look bad in 1977. Yes, the issue kept rolling on medicaid and abortion. On November 30th, partial shutdown happened again. It took a lot of hotheads to figure it out, but finally on December 9th, it all came to a close.
A woman could use medicaid to pay for an abortion if raped.
Jimmy Carter was still President and the Democrats also controlled both the House and the Senate.
Proposed was a bill that included funding for a Nuclear powered aircraft carrier. Carter wouldn't have it.
"Foolish government spending," exclaimed the one time peanut farmer.
Carter vetoed the bill sending the government into shutdown from September 30th until October 18th, when Congress agreed to take the carrier out of the bill.
It seemed these Democrats liked government shutdowns.
Vacation time for them?
Jimmy Carter was President and the Democrats still controlled both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Back in the forefront was the abortion issue and also Congress wanted a pay raise.
Shutdown happened again on September 30th.
The pay raises came with the other side giving in allowing abortion in rape cases.
The government was back in order on October 12th.
They made President Ronald Reagan angry.
He told the Democrat controlled Congress that he would veto the spending bill if it did not have the budget cuts he insisted on.
Senate agreed, but not the Democrats in Congress.
On November 20th shutdown happened but a bill was quickly signed giving more time. The shutdown only lasted until the 23rd.
The same players as 1981.
The shutdown was because of tardiness.
Reagan had the Republicans from the House and Senate eating barbeque. The Democrats had a $1000 a plate fundraiser and they were all late voting on the spending bill.
Shutdown was on September 30th. It all fired back up on October 2nd.
Veto Power
Shutdown again happened on December 17th when the House passed a jobs funding bill. Reagan wanted the MX missile so a compromise was reached when he let the jobs bill go through if the MX one passed.
The shutdown was over on December 21st.
Same players as the prior year.
Reagan was strong on defense and aid for ally Israel.
The House passed a bill with a major amount going to education. They cut defense spending which Reagan just couldn't handle.
On November 10th another shutdown was the result. Compromises were made and reopening came on November 14th.
Again we have President Reagan with a Republican Senate and a Democrat House.
Shutdown was forced on September 30th. Congress wanted a water package and Reagan wanted a crime package. Neither budged and Reagan signed an extension opening the government on October 3rd.
The extension was over and still no compromise. On October 5th the government reopened with a very victorious Ronald Reagan. The water package dropped and the crime package stayed.
Same as before; Reagan at word war with the Democrat controlled House.
Shutdown occurred on October 16th and was over very soon on the 18th.
The sale of government owned Conrail resulted from this.
Here we still had President Reagan, but he was up against Democrats in both the House and Senate.
The Contra affair in Nicaragua was the primary focus.
On December 18th the government shutdown, but not for long. Funding came for the Contras and all was in working order on the 20th.
George H.W. Bush was our Republican President.
All of the House and Senate were Democrat controlled.
Bush wanted deficit reduction and vetoed the bill that crossed his desk.
Shutdown came on October 5th. On October 9th Congress fixed it so Bush would pass it.
The government opened back up.
Here is where Government shutdown caused some serious issues.
Bill Clinton was the Democrat President and Republicans controlled both the House and Senate.
This whole shutdown we are having now is very similar to the one Clinton had.
It was about medicaid and the budget.
The first shutdown came on November 13th when Clinton vetoed the budget. On the 19th, a deal was brokered for 75% funding for four weeks.
The four weeks up, heads butted again. On December 15th the Federal Government went into the longest shutdown in history.
Congress wanted the budget drawn on a 7 year timetable from their budget ideas and Clinton wanted it from his budget ideas.
Finally, on January 6th, after 21 days, the compromised.
Same Drill?
Our current shutdown is so very similar to the Clinton fiasco.
I, personally think that all the players...President, House and Senate members should all lose pay during this.
We have people that are losing pay--we have National parks and monuments closed, but all these people will get their normal pay.
Doesn't it make good sense that anytime a shutdown happens, all of them lose what would be their daily pay for each day it is down?
The following poll may get some people fired up, but I am curious to views.
Let's hear your views--two polls and probably some hard comments.
Lets keep it civil.
The Blame Game
Which Party Has Been The Biggest Culprit Behind Government Shutdowns?
2013 Shutdown
Who Is The Biggest Culprit In The 2013 Government Shutdown
© 2013 Greg Boudonck
I believe the Democrats want to make the Republicans irrelevant and along with them all Americans who did not vote with them. This is a very dangerous game they are playing. The President claims to be president of all Americans but I learned as a child that actions speak louder than words. His actions make him a liar. I do not believe any of them on either side. There is something going on behind the scenes that none of us know about that is placing all of us in danger. Thanks for this hub. Enjoyed reading it.
This shutdown would be over quickly if for 2 things: 1) House Republicans would stick to one issue, that being a one year delay in the individual mandate 2) Senate Democrats admitting that giving industries a one year waiver on the requirement to provide health insurance to all full-time employees, while at the same time requiring individuals to buy insurance or be penalized is unfair and wrong. Shutdown over.
Ohhh political issues are the same, same and same. They are roller coasters. I do not believe in "Politics". To me everything is fake, messy and history for them is like a fairy tale, or a fiction story.
Good search Greg, that says how these political people try to lead walking in sand. This is so absurd....I don't like politics. but very informative hub!

I was educated in Aberdeen. I had an Interior Design Practice in Glasgow, but decided that I preferred painting canvases to houses. For the past six years I have been the Course Co-ordinator and tutor for the Seasons Art Classes in Scotland and have taught classes in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Stirling and Perth. I love sharing knowledge with people people who are interested in learning to draw and paint. When not teaching, I work from my studio in stunning Perthshire
Working predominantly in oils, but I also use acrlyics, pastels, gold leaf, and water colours.
I am inspired by people, places and animals. I love atmospheric or dramatic images and cannot resist a pop of cerise pink!
My joyful, quirky landscapes are often inspired by Carole Kirkwood, the BBC weather forecaster and her descriptions of the weather.
I have always loved observing and painting skies, and that is evident on my landscapes and seascapes. My other passion is figurative work, whether that is people or animals depends on what captures my imagination.

They're fatter than footballs, fanning the Atlantic Ocean depths with red-and-white stripes and huge, spiked fins capable of delivering a deadly venomous punch to underwater prey.
These are lionfish – the name fitting because, like lions, they're ferocious predators – and they infest the waters off the Bahamas, the Keys and even Fort Lauderdale. They're killing entire coral reef systems, native Florida fish and, with them, the local fishing industry.
But 15th Street Fisheries in Fort Lauderdale has a rather delicious solution for the lionfish invasion off South Florida's coast: If you can't beat 'em, eat 'em.
"They taste really, really good," says Clark Drum, the 18-year-old grandson of 15th Street Fisheries co-owner Ted Drum. "It's white meat, tastes almost like a hogfish, and they look pretty funky on a plate. Lionfish aren't sport fish, but anyone who dives in our saltwater fishing community sees them all the time, tons of them."
Together with 15th Street chef Lenny Judice, the Fort Lauderdale fisherman created an event to combat lionfish with culinary means. Next Friday night, the dockside restaurant off the Intracoastal is hosting "Lion Eyes – Eat the Enemy," a predatory-sounding title by its own right but one that carries a sustainable cause: ridding South Florida of the nonnative menace by inviting hundreds of people to chow down on platters of lionfish seviche. The lionfish eat-off, of sorts, is expected to draw north of 100 eaters, and proceeds will benefit the Reef Environmental Education Foundation (REEF), a Key Largo-based organization that conserves marine ecosystems.
"Lionfish are gluttonous eaters, and eat prey in excess of half their body size, and eat a variety of recreationally and ecologically important species, such as juvenile grouper and snapper, and crabs and shrimp, which we depend on for our commercial market," says Lad Akins, who'll lead a discussion of the lionfish threat during the feast with Alexa Elliott, whose PBS documentary "Changing Seas" documented the invasion. "More importantly, they eat small parrotfish, which graze on algae to keep it from overgrowing on the corals. It surprises people to hear this, but it's the first time an invasive marine fish has become establishing in our waters.
"But they taste good," he adds with a chuckle, "and this is a great incentive to remove them."
"Lion Eyes – Eat the Enemy" is part of a larger lineup of environmental-themed events next week – and 50 in total – that are collectively called Sustainatopia, a weeklong festival and conference running next Thursday through April 25. John Rosser, a Fort Lauderdale freelance sustainability consultant, created Sustainatopia three months after the Haiti earthquake in 2010 to corral speakers from more than 40 countries to tackle, among other things, Haiti relief efforts, urban core poverty, world recycling and water distribution in rural Colombia.
"The first conference was successful, but, afterward, I just had this weird, empty feeling like we were preaching to the converted," Rosser says. "We had to have a broad-ranging festival, like an Art Basel, to be a tremendous catalyst. It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor. This allows for the celebration of art and environmentalism, for young, cool people to be saving the world in fun and intricate ways, with film and fine art and eco-fashion."
Rosser's comparisons to Art Basel may sound like wishful thinking, and, indeed, he expects to draw 15,000 people this year, according to the event's website, compared to the 50,000-strong glut of art fans who descended on Miami Beach last December. Rosser even mirrored Sustainatopia after Basel's fragmented layout, hosting its three-day conference at Miami Beach Convention Center but staggering its art events across the sprawl of Miami, with the exception of "Lion Eyes" in Fort Lauderdale.
Sustainatopia kicks off next Thursday with "Revolution!" a party for young social entrepreneurs at Miami Event Space, 7610 N.E. Fourth Court, with proceeds benefiting nonprofits Net Impact, the U.S. Green Building Council, and Young Women's Social Entrepreneurs. On April 20, the University of Miami is hosting Green U, a day of panels about social justice and Earth Day, with a screening of environmental films and a display of alternative vehicles. That night, the Miami-based Rhythm Foundation is presenting its monthly Big Night in Little Haiti, a Caribbean-themed concert and display of arts and crafts at Little Haiti Cultural Arts Center, while Cafeina Wynwood Lounge, 297 N.W. 23rd St., is displaying "Reclaiming Miami," a showcase of environmental works by Lucinda Linderman.
On Saturday night, revelers head to 17th Street and Lincoln Road for Carnivalia, a green-themed parade featuring Brazilian drum music, a procession of marchers covered in black garbage bags to resemble a giant oil slick and circus performers decked in blue body paint (and tails, no less) like Na'vi from "Avatar." Elsewhere, Miami club Villa 221, 221 N.E. 17th St. is partying like it's 2099 with décor that envisions an underwater Miami.
Sunday finds bikers pedaling for the environment at Tour de Grass, a cycling event at Everglades National Park, an EarthFest gathering from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. outside Coral Gables City Hall and Rant @ Sustainatopia, where environmentally minded activists can mount a literal soapbox (made of organic materials, of course) at ArtCenter/South Florida and wax strongly about America's unfriendly eco-practices. The Impact Conference caps off Sustainatopia from April 23 to April 25.

China's armed forces had supposedly become adept at developing safeguards down the length of their fringe linking North Korea which agree to notices by the American president about how he's been thinking about armed forces activity around Pyongyang's atomic weapon advances.
A WSJ's account, referring to an audit for authority armed forces as well as administration locations as well as meetings involving specialists, revealed how china had assembled dugouts towards securing in opposition to atomic impacts, built up another outskirt unit as well as the everyday reconnaissance for their hilly boondocks.
These arrangements were proposed towards reacting to most pessimistic scenario situations, similar to a monetary crumple, atomic defilement or the contention, the specialists revealed to this publication.
This china's administration didn't stand up towards these reports of arrangements. The authority for their safeguard service stated during an announcement on how their strengths "keep up a typical condition of battle preparation in addition to preparing."
"Military abilities shouldn't become the alternative towards tackling this Korea's neck of land issue," the china's overseas bureau representative stated.
The motives for the Chinese military activities along the border remain uncertain
"In case you will cause us to put down wagers upon when we believe America. Also, the Chinese will initially initiate the contention, it's never the Taiwanese, Southern Chinese waters or the Eastern Chinese waters: I believe it's this Peninsula," the spokesperson stated.
American presidency as well as organization has been looking towards additional successful approaches to increase weight up Pyongyang on their atomic weapon agenda. Pyongyang's current effective trial for the inter continental missile rocket — an original from the nation — did make for much additional desperation as America looks towards stopping Pyongyang ahead of their acing this mind boggling procedure for placing an atomic war head on this rocket fit for affecting the American nation.
The American leader had communicated dissatisfaction for this underlying methodology — enrolling China's assistance and impact towards crushing Korea financially as well as carefully — was yet to yield any real outcomes. Trump's organization was additionally taking into consideration additional financial strides counting "optional assents" which might mark organizations in addition to banks — for the most part within Beijing.

37: Jonathan Merritt | Learning to Speak God
On today's episode we're chatting with our new friend, Jonathan Merritt. Jonathan is an incredibly gifted faith and culture writer whose published more than 3,000 articles for outlets such as the New York Times, USA Today, Washington Post, and CNN.
We chat with Jonathan about his journey moving from the Bible Belt to New York City and how he found himself struggling to engage people in spiritual conversations who didn't speak the "christianese" he was used to in the South. If you've ever found yourself in an "in between" season, wrestling through difficult questions, or maybe walking closely with someone who is, this conversation is for you. We were so encouraged by the truth that Jonathan shares and cannot wait for you to hear it. Enjoy!
"There are times in life when you hear a whisper, and you have every practical reason in the world to say no to the whisper. But if you do, that whisper will go away and never come back and you'll miss out on that adventure."
"In NYC the people who go to church are those who mean it."
"It is one of the most stunning things to be in a city that is so pluralistic and post christian and to get together in a room of people who are so fired up and sold out to Jesus. You can just feel it when you walk in the room and it rubs off on you."
"Familiarity breeds unfamiliarity and unfamiliarity breeds contempt." – Dallas Willard
"You can talk about something so often you don't know what it means anymore."
"The mystery of God is not a code that you crack."
"Jesus asked over 120 questions."
"The life of faith is not about having all the right answers, but also about embracing the right questions."
"Questions are just as divine as answers."
"God is in the wrestling, not just in the figuring out."
"God shows up in the 'I don't knows and in the journey between the question and the answer."
"When we give people permission to wrestle, it liberates them to have conversations they might not otherwise have."
"A lot of times the Spirit is speaking, but we have our fingers in our ears."
"In Western Christianity, when we want to encounter God, we make a lot of noise- we have a spiritual conversation, we preach a sermon, or pray a lot of words. Eastern Christians do the opposite, when they want to encounter God, they stop making noise, they get quiet and listen."
"If you don't have the intake you can't have the outflow."
"Do not rush past the gift of today to live in the fear of what may come tomorrow."
Learning to Walk in the Dark, Barbara Brown Taylor
Remembering life is a gift. being present to the gift of today.
"It gets better."

It has been three weeks since I've started my internship at the US House of Representatives. What is the recipe for success? Coffee and news, news, news, and more news. Also, enough storage space on your phone for all the podcasts that analyze everything that has happened in the past weeks, from the Supreme Court nomination to the 'new NAFTA' or USMCA.
The range of my responsibilities has throughout these three weeks exponentially grown from getting to know my way around the buildings on the first day to being an important part of the office—not only in terms of legislative research but also constituent relations—as I am writing this post. As you might already know the US House of Representatives is the lower chamber of the US congress. Its members, elected directly by the people, are representatives of congressional districts that are apportioned among the states according to their population.
Constituent relations and communication is therefore crucial. One way I take part in this is leading Capitol Hill tours that are offered to the constituents directly by their representative's office. I welcome them at the office and then take them on a two-hour long journey, where I explain the story behind the Capitol Hill and show them beautiful places such as the Rotunda. By now, I have done this tour several times, but the inner side of the Dome never ceases to amaze me.
Leading these tours has been educational in two ways. Firstly, the Capitol is a fascinating building rich in terms of history and architecture. You learn about the first Supreme Court Chamber where historical decisions like Dred Scott v. Sandford were made. You see the original Senate and House Chamber, where people like John Quincy Adams worked. You get to see how the building itself was growing and adapting to the development of the US as country. In addition, you also learn fun facts, such as that Samuel Morse sent the first telegram from the Capitol to Baltimore.
Secondly, it gives me an intricate look into US political culture. This is not only in terms of meeting constituents, listening to their opinions about current domestic affairs and, yes, confirming that I do come from the same country as the First Lady. It also gives me the opportunity to observe their fascination and sense of pride while they walk around the Capitol building. There, all the partisan politics seem to fade away, as people are just overwhelmed by all the history and symbolism of the building that is such a central part of their American identity.
For some such a task might be dull and repetitive work—having to always tell the same story or explain the same painting. For me it turned out to be a great opportunity to better understand the American identity.

Since I have been recovering from a stress fracture in my foot and wearing a boot, Maryellen has been helping to get Henry up the stairs to daycare this week. Today, Henry took initiative and climbed all the way up himself. The stairs are pretty steep, so it was somewhat scary for me to see. I was also very proud and so was he. It is amazing to watch him get more confident and try something new every day.
5 thoughts on "Milestone in the Morning"
Since I have been seeing all these pictures/videos of Henry, I can see him growing up each and every day. He is a beautiful child.
oh man that looks so intimidatingly high! He is super motivated like his mama!
Oh, can't he just stay a baby? I hate that they all grow up, but not. I just love the age he is and would love to be spending this baby time with him.

Policies have been set to ensure persons are not helped; laws are in place to hinder human progress and happiness; and persons acting as bureaucrats and organizational persons have been locked in to decisions to help the few and harm the many; computer technology ensures that this is so. But as difficult as this is to bear, the greatest harm to our humanity lies in the increasing world acceptance of anti-Semitism, thinly disguised as legitimate criticism of Israel and Zionism, but in reality a harsh and unreasonable critique of a nation, which is bad enough. No legitimate state has received more venom, more vitriol, more animus and more hate directed its way than Israel. The canary in the mine is Israel; my firm conviction is that how we view Israel says much about our moral condition. By now, you can guess how low is our collective moral goodness. Very low.
The world focuses all of its collective energies on one nation: Israel. As it does so, it ignores the gross human-rights violations in dozens of other nations, duly noted but given little importance; and, it shrugs its collective shoulders with a nod and a wink when doing so. Israel has become the chief problem for humanity; decades ago, it was the Jews. Same thing; different words. Israel and the Jewish People represent a morality that few want. Have people's consciences' been seared? That's a question that few want to ask, let alone address.
What would have happened if such persons as Raoul Wallenberg (Sweden), Chiune Sugihara (Japan), Fengshan Ho (China) and Hiram Bingham (U.S.) decided to not follow their conscience? In doing so, such men defied the orders of their superiors and the laws of the land, which were then unjust, despite the seal of authority. Their actions saved tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of lives—yes, Jewish lives. Were they exceptional persons? Were they risk takers? Were they acting morally? Compared to today, the answer is an unequivocal "yes."
Today, it's greatly about policy, shrouded in legal codes, laws, resolutions, regulations, forms, documents, official stamps & seals and policies. The idea is to remove the human from the decision-making process; after all this makes it more humane and fair. And legal. Do policy-makers see the irony in this statement? I doubt it—such persons lack the ability to laugh, except at the most crude and vulgar jokes. But that is a private matter that you wish kept locked away in the dark chambers of your heart.
Primo Levi, a survivor of Auschwitz, remarked that when open communication is impeded, all other liberties wither and imposed opinions becomes the norm; Elie Wiesel, another Holocaust survivor, said that the opposite of love is indifference, and that neutrality in the face of immorality is not an option. Both men are right.
It all start with an individual. To the policy-makers of such inhumane thinking, I say this: You might feign surprise, even mock shock—after all, you are all fine, upstanding, hard-working and "good and moral" persons; you are kind to animals and your parents and your children; you dutifully recycle and show concern for the environment; you go to church, synagogue, temple or mosque; you are leaders in your community. You work by consensus and use the latest models and theories, even those that you don't particularly understand. But the experts, consultants and policy analysts have said these are the best. So, they must be. You think it shades of grey and that defines your moral views. When you do decide to take a position it is the safe and popular one, even if it's the wrong decision morally.
Yes, you have a good job and you draw a good salary, and you wine and dine around the world, but you deserve it; you have earned it by dint of who you are. Your favourite word is "no"—denying others makes you feel like a god—powerful, capricious and unloving. You say that if others are poor or in desperate situation, or suffering unfairly, let them go to the community or governmental organizations for aid; they are there to help.
But you and I know that is not always true, is it? Pushing aside those bothersome, nagging thoughts really does nothing to develop your morality. It's very simple you see. In the same way that Israel's existence—Givers of the Torah, People of the Book, Leaders in Arts, Culture & Science, etc.—irritates "the world" and prevents it from living the way it desires, free from any moral obligation, persons like me, individuals, by dint of his words, remind you of your moral obligations to humanity.
Now, to the policy-makers, please go back to your coffee or to whatever strong drink you inbibe to calm your nerves. And forget that unpleasant business. Repeat after me: "I am a good person."

For those wishing to try something beyond the four-wheeling or hiking experience, the Twin Peaks Lodge & Hot Springs invites guests to soar up into the clouds on a memorable hot air balloon experience.
Ouray, CO -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/15/2018 -- True to its name, hot air ballooning drifting through the winds in a massive, inflatable hot air balloon enjoying the sights. It is perhaps among the safest air sports, so travelers can rest easy. For those that are frequently prone to motion sickness, there is little need for concern as hot air balloons fly slowly enough that the movements can barely be felt, making motion sickness practically impossible.
A hot air ballooning is a wonderfully relaxing and scenic experience partly due to the serene silence. There is no noise from vehicle traffic, people yelling, or other noises to distract from what's going on. It can be considered something of an escape from the urban jungle and a relief from whatever may be causing stress. The pictures taken during a hot air balloon experience are stunning due to the elevated views that provide panoramic vistas of Ouray and beyond.
Hot air ballooning is a thrilling experience definitely worth considering.
