Original Oil on Canvas, 76 x 76cm
Limited Edition Giclee Print, Edition of 50, Size: 60 x 60 cm
It's impossible to experience Barcelona without enjoying the architectural masterpieces of Antoni Gaudi! Vigorous lines, lively curvatures and an almost dancing composition reveal the artist's impression of this beautiful city. Gaudi is very subtly evoked in ornamental elements intercepting the canvas and the natural arches describing the piece. Palette is bright and leans toward sunny yellows, while contrasts follow the linear structure of the canvas. This semi-abstract piece can be seen as a visceral depiction of the great Catalan city, rather than its literal interpretation.

However, using the market just how it's as well as the truth that it's potential a corporation that released a gift-card may move out-of-business prior to the card can be utilized, below are a few tricks to make sure you never get caught because snare.
1. Select a well known very popular brand shop.
It's a substantially safer approach to choose, while that is no warranty. Smaller more local shops would be the types which are likely to be fighting therefore this can be a period when "larger is way better" ... and safer.
2. Pick a shop with national places.
You've more defense as long as they determine to shut specific places, by purchasing on-line gift cards from a national string. For instance, an important electronic equipment chain is shutting each of their divisions in my own metropolitan area ... an annoyance for me personally basically had 1 of their present cards, but nevertheless some thing I really could utilize were I prepared traveling to a different condition. Additionally, it starts up the chance for trading present cards with somebody in a different condition in the event that you went in to troubles with nearby divisions of a national string.

Welcome to Oracle's Second Quarter 2020 Earnings Conference Call.
Now I would like to turn the call over to Ken Bond, Senior Vice President. Ken?
Ken Bond
Thank you, Holly. And good afternoon everyone and welcome to Oracle's Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2020 Earnings Conference Call. A copy of the press release and financial tables, which includes a GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation and other supplemental financial information can be viewed and downloaded from our Investor Relations website.
On the call today are Chairman and Chief Technology Officer, Larry Ellison and CEO Safra Catz. As a reminder, today's discussion will include forward-looking statements, including predictions, expectations, estimates or other information that might be considered forward-looking.
Throughout today's discussion, we will present some important factors relating to our business, which may potentially affect these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are also subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from statements being made today. As a result, we caution you against placing undue reliance on these forward-looking statements and we encourage you to review our most recent reports, including our 10-K and 10-Q and any applicable amendments for a complete discussion of these factors and other risks that may affect our future results or the market price of our stock.
And finally, we are not obligating ourselves to revise our results or publicly release any revision to these forward-looking statements in light of new information or future events. Before taking questions we'll begin with a few prepared remarks.
And with that, I'd like to turn the call over to Safra.
Safra Ada Catz
Thanks, Ken. But before I start, I'd like to acknowledge and thank you all for the many, many sincere condolences we received upon Mark's passing. Thank you. They mean a lot to us.
As you can see we had another solid quarter. This quarter, we finished with total revenue growth within my guidance range and EPS at the high-end. Cloud Services and License Support continue to see material growth and given that it represents more than 70% of our total revenue, it more than offsets declines in some smaller non-strategic businesses.
We continue to be encouraged that our overall revenue growth will further accelerate, as we reach the final stages of this ongoing shift in business mix. Of late, I've been spending much more time with customers. The overriding theme I hear is the compelling nature of our technology and how it is critical to the success of their businesses, feature-rich, simple, secure, performance and priced right. They see Oracle is being strategic to their ongoing operations and they tell me repeatedly that Oracle is the right partner to run their mission critical assets, both in the cloud and on-premise. Their comments reinforce our conviction that our product strategy is right.
At Oracle, we've upgraded our internal systems to the cloud. And we are sharing our experience with customers by describing the stunning benefits and efficiencies that can be realized from the move. And though we have thousands of customers

To Bernie Sanders supporters, this article will come as no surprise. Dear Berners, I will not be offended if you roll your eyes on this one. But for others, especially Clinton supporters, take heed what is happening. If you think you can get Bernie Sanders supporters to line up behind your cherished Hillary Clinton, read this and think again.
The corrupting influence of money is what Hillary Clinton represents to us, the men and women who stand by Bernie Sanders. Take note now, that the mainstream media is complicit in this corruption by failing to report certain relevant facts about this election, another facet of what we see and oppose in Hillary Clinton.
I happened upon this article from the Washington Post, Rep. Chaka Fattah convicted in racketeering case, byline dated 2016-06-21. From the looks of it, it's just another case of a high-level politician finding a way sell access for money and going to the big house for doing so. But as I read through the article, I kept thinking to myself that I'd seen that name before. Fattah, Fattah...Where did I see it?
I don't remember where I saw his name before, but I know where to look. Here, Wikipedia has a fine list of Superdelegates with their declared voting intentions. They don't vote until July 25th, but the mainstream media has been polling them day and night for their intentions, so they can only declare what they plan to do. Fattah is a superdelegate who has openly stated that he plans to vote for Hillary Clinton at the Democratic National Convention. Isn't it nice to know that a convict will be voting for Hillary Clinton?
Perhaps the Washington Post didn't feel that that connection was a relevant aspect of the story. Neither did Politico. Neither did CNN. Not even NPR felt compelled to point that out. And I'm shocked, shocked, shocked! that FOX News failed to note that connection. I only have so much time to survey the field, but I suspect that if you go to any mainstream media site, you will not find a single major source of news reporting that Chakah Fattah is a Clinton supporting superdelegate who just happens to be going to prison soon.
I find Fattah's conviction ironic in the sense that he supports someone who has a well documented history of corruption. The irony goes deeper when I read those articles reporting his conviction to learn that he had been sold out by peers and subordinates who got also caught. They were able to get leniency for ratting out their friend for a lighter sentence, with what is known as a plea bargain. A plea bargain is a sort of a bribe to get perps to talk, yet another form of corruption.
I wrote this article not give you a survey of the bias in the media, but to show you how subtle the bias is in mainstream media. I believe that the vast majority of that bias in this primary season is by acts of omission. Bernie has been filling stadiums for his rallies, but did the mainstream media give any of them live coverage? They'd rather cover an empty chair at a Trump rally. When Sanders is still flipping counties in California as they count the remaining ballots, the press focuses on how dangerous Trump is. They dismiss any possibility that Clinton will be indicted for her private email server for espionage or racketeering, while focusing on the mounting pressure for Sanders to drop out. Who exactly wants Sanders to drop out and make nice?
You have to dig a little deeper to get to media sources that make the connection between the convict, Chakka Fattah, and his superdelegate status and his plans to vote for Clinton. You'd have to go to places like the Washington Free Beacon, and The Blaze (Associated Press), which wrote about the same story and referenced the former source, the Washington Free Beacon. Yet, every other organization that carried the story dropped the connection of Fattah as a Clinton-supporting superdelegate. They might be forgiven, except that the headline the Beacon ran with was as follows:
"Clinton Superdelegate Chaka Fattah Found Guilty on Corruption Charges"
It is now clear that most mainstream news organizations felt compelled to report the story to keep up with competing media sources. Yet they could not bring themselves to mention that all too important connection to Clinton's army of superdelegates. Curiously, all of those superdelegates who are known to be planning to vote for Clinton made their decision long before the first primary elections were held.
It is also well known that most of the top media organizations have made significant contributions to SuperPACs and PACs that support Hillary Clinton. This is the power of money in politics. Mainstream media is personified by Hillary Clinton and 90% of mainstream media is controlled by 6 parent corporations. They own a virtual monopoly, and if they have interlocking directorates where board members sit on multiple boards of directors for those 6 companies, then they have a monopoly.
For Bernie Sanders supporters, the overarching issue is to get the corrupting influence of money out of politics. This is why the fact that Chakkah Fattah is a superdelegate who supports Hillary Clinton is relevant to the story of his conviction. But mainstream media would like for us to believe that the corrupting influence of money is not the most important issue. To them, what is important is electing Clinton to defeat the evil Mr. Trump and electing Hillary Clinton as the first woman president in American history.
To know the story of American politics, we only need to follow the money. To restore our democracy, one person, one vote, we need to remove the money from politics. To make that narrative a mainstream media narrative, we must become the media. That's why I sit here most days writing about it and sharing about it. That's why I make time every day to share stories about people who support Bernie Sanders and Sanders himself. I support Bernie Sanders because he has made himself dependent upon the people and the people alone. Remember, he who pays the piper calls the tune.

IT Service Provider Customer care
The partnership in between the customer and also the supplier could make or damage the success of your system. It is inescapable that concerns will certainly emerge throughout the duration of application, and also daily use the system. Take the time to research the service model of your supplier.

19 January 2015
Teachers: Teachers at Merrill Academy Derby, members of the NUT and NASUWT, are taking a further two days of strike action on Wednesday 21st and Thursday 22nd January in response to management's refusal to negotiate over the imposition of an unachievable appraisal target and the resulting lack of pay progression for the majority of teachers. The strike on Tuesday 13th January saw the school closed for all but Year 11 pupils and a big, lively picket on the gates. The strikers are determined to win this dispute because they are fed up of being bullied and threatened and feeling that no matter how hard they work, nothing is ever good enough. The academy sponsor, Derby College, is at present refusing to amend the target or negotiate pay and appraisal policies which comply with the joint NUT / NASUWT checklist. If their position does not change then members of both unions will be out again for three days the following week.
Please send messages of support to email@example.com

The City of Albany is located 409 kilometres from Perth, on the southern coast of Western Australia. A regional centre, Albany is a thriving multicultural city with many attractions. Albany has a dramatic granite coastline and is surrounded by magnificent scenery and pristine white beaches. With some of the most spectacular coastline and sheltered waterways in the world, the area is ideal for a coastal holiday.
Albany is known for its natural attractions including those that are situated along the rugged coastline of the Torndirrup National Park. The two major highlights are the Gap with a 24-metre drop to the water and the Natural Bridge, a granite formation in the shape of a bridge.
From budget accommodation to five star resorts, the area caters for many different holiday adventures which include fishing, canoeing, boat cruises, whale watching, wildflower viewing, coach and off-road tours, scuba diving, sailing and hiking.
Whale Watching: During the months of July through to October, Southern Right and Humpback Whales arrive in King George Sound to frolic and play. Whale watching has become a major pastime in Albany since the whaling industry ceased in 1978. Whales can be viewed from the shore or visitors can get closer by taking one of the whale watching cruises available daily during the season.
Western Australia added to its reputation as one of the World's premier year-round dive destinations when the decommissioned HMAS Perth was scuttled in the pristine waters of King George Sound in Albany in late November 2001.
The sinking of the former HMAS Perth follows the highly successful scuttling in 1998 of the former HMAS Swan, which has attracted over 20,000 divers to Dunsborough in the State's South-West. Combining the former Perth and Swan dive sites with the world's largest dive wreck, Sanko Harvest in Esperance, creates a perfect wreck trail across Western Australia.
HMAS Perth
The former Perth is a 133-metre long guided missile destroyer with a distinguished service record. She came under fire on four occasions during the Vietnam War and remnants of shellfire will be visible to divers on the interpretive dive trail. The HMAS Perth was scuttled on the 24th November 2001 as a dive wreck. This dive site is just awesome for novice to "technical" divers. A visually impacting dive with much of the ships equipment and machinery left in place. The growth has surprised everyone. Sponges, mussels, oysters, scallops, cuttlefish, large kingfish, and a plethora of local fish abound.
Upon leaving the surface, the first structure that is seen is a large horizontal platform at 5M and again at 10M perfect for a safety stops and deco stops while surrounded by fish and marine life. From dive to dive you may be visited by an Australian Sea Lion who shows great interest in what the divers are doing. HMAS Perth is a "must dive" spot when you visit Albany.
Permits are required to dive this site. They are available from the Albany Visitors Centre, City of Albany or Local dive shops.

From the Back Cover
This comprehensive book covers both long-standing results in the theory of polynomials and recent developments which have until now only been available in the research literature. After initial chapters on the location and separation of roots and on irreducibility criteria, the book covers more specialized polynomials, including those which are symmetric, integer-value or cyclotomic, and those of Chebyshev and Bernoulli. There follow chapters on Galois theory and ideals in polynomial rings. Finally there is a detailed discussion of Hilbert's 17th problem on the representation of non-negative polynomials as sums of squares of rational functions and generalizations. From the reviews: "… Despite the appearance of this book in a series titled Algorithms and Computation of Mathematics, computation occupies only a small part of the monograph. It is best described as a useful reference for one's personal collection and a text for a full-year course given to graduate or even senior undergraduate students. […..] the book under review is worth purchasing for the library and possibly even for one's own collection. The author's interest in the history and development of this area is evident, and we have pleasant glimpses of progress over the last three centuries. He exercises nice judgment in selection of arguments, with respect to both representativeness of approaches and elegance, so that the reader gains a synopsis of and guide to the literature, in which more detail can be found. …" E. Barbeau, SIAM Review 47, No. 3, 2005 "… the volume is packed with results and proofs that are well organised thematically into chapters and sections. What is unusual is to have a text that embraces and intermingles both analytic and algebraic aspects of the theory. Although the subject is about such basic objects, many tough results of considerable generality are incorporated and it is striking that refinements, both in theorems and proofs continued throughout the latter part of the Twentieth Century. […] There is a plentiful of problems, some of which might be challenging even for polynomial people; solutions to selected problems are also included." S.D.Cohen, MathSciNet, MR 2082772, 2005 "Problems concerning polynomials have impulsed resp. accompanied the development of algebra from its very beginning until today and over the centuries a lot of mathematical gems have been brought to light. This book presents a few of them, some being classical, but partly probably unknown even to experts, some being quite recently discovered. […] Many historical comments and a clear style make the book very readable, so it can be recommended warmly to non-experts already at an undergraduate level and, because of its contents, to experts as well."

In 1982, DAS BOOT took moviegoers on an unprecedented journey. Audiences set out to sea with the patrol of U-96 - one of the famed German U-boats that prowled the North Atlantic challenging the British Navy at every turn - and faced an astonishing series of life-and-death struggles as the scared, exhausted and desperately courageous crew blasted away in battle, dove to untested depths, and were evading depth charges in an all-out effort not so much to win the war as to return home to their families and loved ones.
Over the next 15 years, DAS BOOT remained on many "top films of all time" lists and has been cited by many filmmakers, including Steven Spielberg, as a primary influence on the intensity, technological superiority and visceral excitement of the contemporary action-adventure film. So why try to make a classic better?
In this case, the answer is because it was clearly possible due in part to the unusual way in which the motion picture was originally shot. Back in the early 1980s, director Wolfgang Petersen wrote and filmed DAS BOOT with two aims in mind: to create a major motion picture for international release and to simultaneously create a six-hour epic for German television.
Under the distribution constraints of the time, Wolfgang Petersen and editor Hannes Nikel produced a cut for international theatrical release that went on to win critical acclaim and break box-office records. But Petersen always felt the film could be even stronger. And the more than a million feet of footage originally shot gave him an unprecedented opportunity.
Says Petersen: "I always thought that even though the film version I delivered worked well it would be wonderful to one day go back and cut my own ideal version -- to ask what is the best way for me tell the story of DAS BOOT based purely on creative rather than commercial considerations. The fact that we had all this material in our hands made this a very rare possibility."

Equality for Women is Progress for All
For over a century, March 8 has been the international day to honour the women in all countries who strive to achieve full equality. On IWD 2014, the Communist Party of Canada and the Young Communist League of Canada send our warmest greetings to all women in the fight against poverty, austerity, violence, misogyny and war. As the United Nations has declared for this year's IWD, "equality for women is progress for all."
Here, the ruling class claims that Canada is a country of equality, fairness and social justice. Yet recent years have seen huge struggles around issues such as access to education, pay equity, union rights, jobs, devastation of the environment, deportations of migrants. Women have played a leading role in the Quebec student strike, the Idle No More movement, grassroots environmental struggles, and defence of labour and social rights.
IWD is particularly significant for working class women, oppressed by the "double burden" of exploitation in the workplace and the major share of domestic labour. Women's unequal status in Canada is reflected in a 30% "wage gap" and other indicators.
Aboriginal women and girls suffer the racist burden of higher rates of poverty, unemployment, and incarceration, and dramatically shorter life spans. Hundreds have been murdered or disappeared, and appalling conditions in many First Nations communities have been condemned internationally.
The rights of all women to a decent job, education, child care, employment insurance, etc. are increasingly undermined by the corporate/government neoliberal agenda. Across the capitalist world, women are paying the price for bailouts of the banks and major corporations, austerity cuts to social programs and public services, and massive tuition increases.
Yet the Harper Conservative government dares to pose as "defenders of women's equality rights", internationally and at home. For example, the Tories say they want to "protect" women, yet they have slashed virtually every federal agency or service which supported women's equality, closed Status of Women Canada offices, eliminated funding of women's organizations which engage in advocacy, and blocked legal avenues to fight for pay equity. Governments refuse to provide adequate funding for emergency shelters and support services for victims of violence and abuse.
Women are disproportionately affected by changes to prevent unemployed workers from accessing EI benefits, and the "restructuring" of Canada Post will cost thousands of jobs now held by women. If the Conservatives win another majority in the 2015 election, the growing power of the most extreme anti‑women forces in Parliament could pose a serious threat to reproductive rights.
The attack on equality extends to the provincial arena, including cuts to welfare, health care and legal aid, abolition of women's equality ministries, tuition increases, and unaffordable child care.
The unequal status of women has been condemned by virtually every United Nations body that reviews Canada's human rights performance, including the CEDAW Committee, the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the Human Rights Committee, and the Human Rights Council.
On a global scale, women and children are the most frequent civilian victims of war and armed conflicts. From the Middle East to Afghanistan to Colombia, wars fuelled by transnational corporations, western imperialist powers and local elites increasingly create health catastrophes through the destruction of power plants, water supply systems and hospitals. Trillions of dollars are wasted on militarism instead of providing education and economic opportunities, clean water, health care, and more human rights protection, including personal security, choice in marriage, and reproductive choice.
Global environmental devastation impacts women and children, from those near Alberta's tar sands, to millions living in drought stricken sub‑Saharan Africa. Changing material conditions goes hand in hand with changing social attitudes.
We express our full solidarity with all women involved in the struggle for survival under difficult conditions, such as the heroic women garment workers of Bangladesh, who are fighting for a living wage, safe working conditions, and the right to organize into trade unions. We demand that Israel abandon its apartheid policy of territorial expansion, violence and economic strangulation of Palestine, which imposes terrible hardships upon the women of Gaza and the West Bank. We condemn the drive for new wars against Iran and Syria, and the U.S.‑backed attempt to launch a coup against the progressive and democratically elected Bolivarian government of Venezuela.
A united fightback can win
In recent years, the popular fightback against the Harper/corporate attack has been hampered by the lack of a truly pan‑Canadian voice for women's rights. The organized women's movement has been deeply wounded by systematic cuts to funding.
There have been important struggles by women's and pro‑equality movements, and the Canadian Labour Congress's Women's conferences have helped keep the fight for women's rights alive. But the re‑establishment of an organization like NAC, to bring together women from labour, youth and students, and Aboriginal and racialized women, and from organizations that fight for legal rights, reproductive rights, disability rights, and child care, would be an important advance.
We welcome the development of initiatives to identify barriers and current issues relating to women in the labour movement. Moving these findings into action can help to reinvigorate a more democratic and equity‑ driven labour movement.
The response to the economic crisis by working people of all genders and backgrounds must be to build a People's Coalition to demand a genuine alternative to corporate greed. Led by the labour movement and its allies, such a Coalition could fight to win sustainable jobs, improve social services and gain increased opportunities for women. To protect jobless workers and their families, EI payments must be set at 90% of previous earnings. Evictions and utility cutoffs against all families affected by unemployment must be banned. The labour movement must focus on organizing unorganized women, the most important way to combat poverty and income disparity.
But while capitalism survives, it will always generate poverty, inequality, exploitation, environmental degradation and war. These outrages are inherent in a system based on maximizing profit in private hands. Only socialism, based on democratic, collective ownership and working class power, can liberate the enormous creative and productive potential of the people for human needs.
The real alternative for gender equality and human survival is socialism. As the tiny island of Cuba demonstrates, when social equality is a priority, huge advances in the status of women can be achieved. Unlike Canada, for example, Cuban women are elected to almost 50% of seats in their National Assembly.
For a century, since IWD was adopted by a Socialist International women's conference in Copenhagen in 1910, the full participation of women has been essential for the success of working class and democratic movements.
On March 8, the Communist Party of Canada and the Young Communist League of Canada extend our warm solidarity to all those who stand for peace, equality, democracy and social progress. A better world is both possible and necessary ‑ the world of socialism, which can guarantee full equality and a future for humanity!

Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
Ok here goes... Hi all! I have been lurking around your wonderful Forum for a week or so now trying to track down the problem with my PT Cruiser, I have really learned alot, but I'm kinda at a loss for direction now so I hope ya'll can help!
I drive a '08 Turbo, with about 55K miles, I am the Second Owner it was a rental car before I bought it about 15K miles ago.
I was driving in a neighborhood (under 25 mph) for about an hour, it was a really hot day and we had air on, we were delivering newspapers and then the engine just died. I popped the hood and it was VERY hot, no steam or smoke but the yellow arm to hold hood was almost to hot to touch. The temp gauge hadn't moved from the almost horizontal position it usually maintains and Coolant looked to be at the ADD line, but not empty, so I had it towed home.
It sounded like it wanted to start just needed a lil gas but wouldn't turn over. I poked around online and learned the codes it had were P0302 and P0688. The 0302 - misfire code has haunted me since I bought the car, the dealer replaced plugs and wires but "couldn't find a mechanical problem" last year. The 0688 was for Auto Shutdown, I found a blown fuse, the 30amp ENG ASD Control Feed 1. I replaced it and it started up. Joy of joys! Sadly short-lived though, as I was naive to think replacing the fuse had fixed the problem.
I took her to get oil change, they put about 1 qt coolant in and a new air filter. I went out on a short trip, about 25-30 miles away, mostly highway speeds and it died again, when I was turning on my street. Temp gauge hadn't moved, but VERY hot again, let it cool overnight, replaced the fuse and brought it home again. It has the P0668 code but not the misfire code this time.
I checked all the other fuses, but they look fine. I let it run about 20 mins in driveway, the radiator fan came on twice for a few mins and also when I ran A/C. I noticed a small amount of fluid under engine. Looks pinkish, kinda watery I'm thinking its coolant (?). The "puddle" is not under the coolant holder area, or by radiator cap, it's on the driver's side almost under the air filter area.
Is there anyway I can tell what I'm dealing with before I take it to a shop? I am not working with any regularity and can't afford a long fishing trip to diagnose the problem or to throw a bunch of the wrong parts at her (probably can't afford the fix right away either!) but I'd like to know whats going on so I can try to save as much as possible.
Sorry for the long post, I don't know what matters and what doesn't so I thought I'd better paint the whole picture! Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
Did a lot of searching but couldn't pin point the ASD problem. It seems it runs a whole host of different things on the PT and anything could be shorted out that would cause the fuse to blow. Something of course is being affected by the heat in your turbo engine, but what, I don't know.
The pinkish fluid is almost definitely coolant and if it's on the drivers said, it could be coming from the radiator or lower radiator hose.

Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
Pinkish fluid under the air filter sounds like transmission fluid to me... that would be right where the transmission pan is.
Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
Also what kind of coolant was used. Pts are picky!

Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
The fluid is definitely closer to the transmission dipstick than to the coolant/radiator, but it doesn't seem thick enough to be transmission fluid, it's pretty watery in viscosity.
The coolant is Zerex G-05, well about a quart is anyhow, that's what they added when I got my oil change.
Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
Transmission fluid isn't particularly thick, especially when hot. Crawl under and and see if you can see where it's coming from, or get it to a shop and have them throw it up on a lift and walk around underneath it.
Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
My neighbor saw me *trying* to crawl underneath and came over to help. Thank goodness cuz I prolly would have got stuck like Winnie the Poo in the honey tree. These babies are looooow!
Anyhow he tells me its transmission fluid, not coolant, that is drip dripping. The dipstick reads at the ADD dot, which is a bit strange seeings how Vavoline said they checked it and it was OK when I got my oil change, I've only driven maybe 60 miles since. Its not leaking that bad! ("puddle" is about 2 quarters in width)
I suppose I should try to track down what maybe blowing the fuse and what is causing the excessive heat, after I have Vavoline add transmission fluid, any suggestions?
Thanks so much for taking the time to help me troubleshoot this problem, I really appreciate it!
Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
Not saying your not low, in fact you probably are if there's small puddles under the car, but the trans should always be checked at normal operating temperature with the engine running and make sure the car is on a level area.

Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
If the trans shows low when it's not running, it's probably fairly low. With the engine running, fluid gets pumped into the torque converter and valve body and the reading on the dip stick goes down. When the car is sitting, that fluid drains back into the pan and the reading goes up. Confusing matters is heat, as with the engine running and the transmission at operating temp, the fluid expands a little and the reading goes back up.
If it left a 1" puddle on the ground from sitting a day, that's a good leak. You need to find out where that's coming from since transmissions do not do well when they are low on fluid.
I don't think this leak could be related to the blown fuse, but it's certainly somewhere to start. For the most part, a leak like this should not be expensive to fix, so that's a plus. Maybe wrap it into a transmission filter change, since 55k is a good time for that, and you'll probably only add $15 to the bill.
Re: Engine died while driving, Blown ASD fuse & VERY Hot
I appreciate the link for checking the transmission fluid, I knew the engine had to be running, but didn't consider temp and level ground.
Vavoline was nice and topped off the transmission fluid, they said it was a little low but not alarmingly so. I will definitely have the transmission filter changed and leak addressed, thanks!
Do you think the Zerex G-05 coolant they used is ok for my PT? Just want to know if it needs to be changed out... obviously not the most pressing issue at hand, but it would feel good to fix something!!!
If anyone has some ideas about the ENG ASD Control Fuse I would be interested...
Thanks again for all the info and suggestions, I appreciate your time!

Oil from algae
Appeal Staff Writer
Gasoline prices over $3 a gallon, dire warnings about greenhouse effects and increased pollution bringing about global warming are causing some folks to think more about energy alternatives.
Claude Sapp, principal for Infinifuel Biodiesel, is one of those folks, and now he is working to turn the oldest geothermal plant in Nevada into a biodiesel processing facility, where camelina oil seed and even algae is becoming diesel fuel.
Sapp said any plant that produces high oil yields can someday power a vehicle.
"Biodiesel is made from vegetable oil instead of petroleum," he said. "We can get it from crambe, canola-type plants, oily seeds, even algae."
He expects to have the first crop available in July, when a crop of camelina oil seed will be harvested and sent to a Lovelock plant to be crushed.
Eventually, he hopes to have the plant at 15 Julian Lane in Wabuska ready to grow its own algae, which he said can be harvested monthly.
"It (algae) starts out in a test tube and replicates itself," he said. "We can grow it in our test ponds. It is about a thousand times more productive to grow algae than growing oil seed in the dirt. We have plenty of land to expand. We can grow acres more than our test ponds."
Sapp said government researchers were initially skeptical about algae growing in Nevada's desert climate because of the cool nights, but with the geothermal, Infinifuel can maintain a constant temperature.
"We can grow more algae and harvest it more often than we can dry crops," he said.
That doesn't mean dry crops don't have a future with Infinifuel. Sapp said he has distributed oil seed to farmers from Eureka to Tonopah and hopes to have enough to crush by summer.
"We'll have some at 4,000 feet and 6,000 feet, so we'll get a good idea on what grows where," he said. "Farmers from across the state have told me they can't keep planting hay and alfalfa."
The plant, which Sapp hopes puts out its first batch of biodiesel in July, is almost entirely self-contained, said Sapp, and fits in nicely with the ranching and farming environment around Wabuska and Yerington.
It begins with algae or oil seed being nourished by the sun, fertilizer and carbon dioxide, then crushed or pressed in a special facility to become vegetable oil and biomass. The biomass is added to alcohol, where it is mixed with the vegetable oil and heated with geothermal power in a biodiesel plant, where it becomes finished biodiesel.
Glycerine, a byproduct of geothermal processing, can be used in dust suppression and the biomass, left over from the crushing and pressing process, becomes fertilizer or fish or animal food.
The geothermal facility Sapp is using creates enough to power the biodiesel plant and even sell some electricity.
"The water at the geothermal plant comes out of the ground at about 220 degrees," Sapp said. "The plant makes electricity, with any excess sold back to Sierra Pacific, so it is all self-contained. We're trying not to use any petroleum products at all."
The plant used to produce ethanol, back in the 1980s, Sapp said.
"They tried to do corn ethanol," he said. "But when gas got cheap again, they abandoned it."
He doesn't expect that to happen again.
"We got all the cheap stuff (crude oil)," he said. "All what's left is the stuff that's hard to get to. There could be hundreds of years of it, but it won't be easy or cheap."
Sapp gave a tour of his facility last month to researchers from Desert Research Institute and engineers from Summit Engineering, hoping to partner with each in the future to improve his operation.
"DRI is the research powerhouse in the state and Summit is the engineering and building powerhouse in the state," he said.
Del Fortner, energy and mineral manager for Summit, was impressed with the concept.
"The whole thing about renewable energy is it is so compatible with other things around it, like agriculture," he said, pointing to cows grazing nearby. "They're putting a dairy across the street and he can get fertilizer from local ranchers."
Kent Hoekman of DRI said the institute is interested in all types of energy research.
"Making fuels from plants and the environmental impact of making geothermal and biodiesel we find interesting," he said.
Sapp said he has expansion facilities planned in Hazen and Valmy, near Winnemucca and expects to grow thousands of acres of algae and oil seed.
"Valmy for sure," he said. "We have already secured land near the power plant to grow algae and oil seed."
He also doesn't plan to limit himself to Nevada, having picked up additional investors and land in North Carolina as well.

Why does self-confidence come easily to some while it eludes others? As with many things, the answer rarely lies in the here and now, but its roots can be traced back to early successes achieved in childhood. Think back to your earliest childhood memories. When you began reading, did your parents express exuberance when you read aloud a word correctly for the first time? Now recall the first time you rode your bike from one end of the block to the other and didn't fall off. Did you see your mother's expression change from hands over her open mouth, eyes expressing utter fear to clapping audibly as she yelled, "Yay honey! I am so proud of you!" as you triumphantly stepped off your two-wheeler? Each time you brought home your report card and you "aced" all your classes, did your grandpa give you a little extra in your allowance?
Whether you knew it at the time or not, you learned that as you did something well, your cheering section rooted for you! With each clap, reward or words of encouragement, you built up the courage to take the next step and achieve bigger and better things. At some point you may have become almost fearless trying new things. This is what having self-confidence is all about.
Maybe your recollections are different and don't conjure up such good feelings for you as you read this. Does this mean you are doomed to failure? Not in the least bit, it means that as an adult you must now learn how to gain the self-confidence that you need to succeed in life. Surprising though, it isn't going to be as much of a challenge as you think.
What you will need to gain self-confidence:
That's it, you ask? That's it! No need to spend endless amounts of money on self-help books. No matter your age, your sex, your education – or even lack thereof – or your whether you are gainfully employed or not, self-confidence is within your reach.
Whether you are four and learning to read or 44 and have decided that after a lifetime of working for someone else, you want to start your own business or finally believe that you have a talent for art, music or writing, whatever it is, you need people in your corner who can rally around and yell "you go girl!" or "you rock, dude!" The wonderful thing about a support system is that it's already in place! Your spouse, best friend, parents, siblings and children are perfect for holding your hand. Don't be afraid to ask for it. And when someone isn't supportive, hard though it may be to do, tune that person out.
A Positive Attitude
We all have one – the ugly looking ogre who sits on our shoulders telling us we can't do it, that we lack the drive, the talent, the education, the chutzpah and of course in this economy, the funds to succeed. Pick him or her up and physically throw that nasty thing in the garbage. If it comes back, you didn't throw it far enough. Go to a far off place, all by yourself and have a ceremonial burning of this creature. It has no place in your quest to build self-confidence!
Previous Successes
Whether your previous "wins" are relevant to the thing you have decided to do or not, they are wholly relevant to building self-confidence. Maybe you won 1st place at the Science Fair 20 years ago. Place it on your desk or wherever you will see it every day. Maybe your best friend (now or when you were in grade school, it doesn't matter) gave you an award that reminded you why she or he was/is your best friend in the whole wide world. Get it out and frame it. Whatever it is, surround yourself with it. While it might seem as though you are becoming a braggart, you aren't. Just because you threw the ugly gremlin away, doesn't mean you can't fall back into bad habits of self-doubt. By waking up each day to positive things around you that YOU achieved, eventually it will sink in that you are the amazing person that others see when they see you.
Goals That are Attainable
If you ever saw the movie, "What About Bob?," which starred Bill Murray (as Bob) and Richard Dreyfuss, you will surely remember the line, "baby steps, Bob," which Richard Dreyfuss (Bob's therapist) repeatedly reminded Bob of as he tried to gain self-confidence. Of course the plot took viewers through twists and turns, but the sentiment is important. Don't audition for American Idol until you have had a few singing lessons, gotten the praise from your vocal coach and done a few music gigs. Everything in life requires baby steps. You have to start at the bottom and with each success you gain the self-confidence to move to the next level. Eventually the judges of American Idol will be ready for you.
Social Media
Contrary to what you might suppose, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. aren't just for wildly successful people. Get a fan page on Facebook. Get some followers on Twitter and connect with as many people as you can on LinkedIn. With each little success – a gig in your local town, a travel article sold to any publication, be it large or small, the purchase of one of your paintings, etc. Tweet it, post it and let your connections know. Whether your connections, friends and followers are truly friends, friends of friends or colleagues, seeing their comments will brighten your day and give you the continued encouragement you need to continue doing it. What is it? Whatever you have set your mind to accomplish that will result in building self-esteem.
Blog It!
A final step on your road to building self-confidence might include starting a blog and writing about your journey. Because you are going to live this journey day in and day out, you may not see the progress. You may have to look back and see your own growth. Don't forget to give yourself a hug! You go girl and you rock, dude!

Global dimensions for fusion categories of type (G,k)
GAP Seminar
Meeting Details
For more information about this meeting, contact Mathieu Stiénon, Nigel Higson, Ping Xu.
Speaker: Robert Coquereaux, CPT Marseille / CNRS
Abstract: The global dimension of a fusion category, or of a module over a fusion category, is the sum of squares of quantum dimensions for its simple objects. It is a quantum analog of the order of a finite group. This number also possesses an interpretation as the value of a functional integral over S3, associated with the Chern-Simon action for the group G, at level k (a non-negative integer). After recalling a few notions about fusion categories associated with a pair (G,k), and about the notion of quantum dimension in that context, we shall introduce, for every simple Lie group, a quantum super-factorial function that allows one to express global dimensions in a closed form.

No at-home viewer really knows what to do after the Oscar hosts say goodnight and thanks for watching.
The dip bowl is empty; so is the bottle of wine. Does one watch the various party follow-ups? Or go to bed? Feeling slightly sad, if you're a cinephile, that the hoopla has wrapped for another year?
The Oscar people helped with the post-show ennui this year, courtesy of the Thank You Cam. Washing the dip bowl could wait.
You heard about it, surely; the backstage camera set up so winners could go through all the people they know, the agents, the producers, the cousins, the cousins' agents.
Of course, some winners still went to the tried-and-true name roster on stage; old habits, etc. But several used their moment for heartfelt anecdotes and ruminations, saving their people-thanking for backstage.
There are a lot of clips, and a goodly chunk of them are pretty engrossing. There is also a Backstage Cam, in addition to a Thank You Cam, so we can confidently call the whole 2010 Oscars well-cammed-out.
Fans, more than ever, got to share in those backstage moments, rather than hearing about them via secondhand press reports. You can watch now.

Firstly, I am interested in any information about Andrew Howard Garven who was a Guardian of Minors in 1913. My research thus far has led me to believe that he was in fact the Guardian for Aboriginal children in the Clarence River district of NSW. My interest is in any records he would have had to have kept in regards to these children and if anyone could advise me on where I would need to go to access these records.
Secondly, I know that my Grandmother was fostered by a…Continue

My last post "Small Stuff" was on April 8.
"Small Stuff" was about a handful of smaller FO's that I made mostly in the first 3 months of this year. In April, I finished some "Bigger Stuff".
I finished stitching the zipper into my Taiga #2 on April 12, 2014. (I noticed when I entered this date on Ravelry that my finish date for the project was exactly 1 year after the start date.)
Pattern: Taiga by Svetlana Volkova
Yarn: Berroco Blackstone Tweed Chunky
Yarn: Berroco Blackstone Tweed Chunky
Some of you may remember that in my sleeve post on this project, I mentioned finding two different zipper insertion tutorial-type posts. I ended up using neither, but bookmarking them for the future.
The first, for me, has a great idea for pinning in a zipper -- but with a selvedge edge being attached to the zipper. It does also show using a hand stitched back-stitch to actually sew the zipper in place. This is the stitching method that I do use most often; however, I hate the way it looks on the inside of the garment, and I usually end up adding a facing of some sort to hide the stitches. My Taiga #2 already had a folded front facing made from a partially steeked edge. Pinning the zipper to a selvedge edge was in no way possible, but also out of the question, was applying any sort of additional facing to hide the ugly hand stitching.
The second zipper post was, surprise!, in Swedish, but do scroll down to see it translated into English. Now this is a zipper insertion I love for not having ugly uneven hand-stitching show on the inside! But, I could not see using it on my Taiga, because of the Taiga's bulk and a little bit because it would be so very time consuming. I know that I will use this on another sweater someday.
My final decision was to, surprise!, machine stitch the zipper in place. Machine stitching with a thread closely matching the zipper color would certainly show the least on the wrong side. First, I carefully replaced my "pin-basting" with a hand-stitched basting in contrasting white thread.
The white stitches were made exactly where the machine stitching would go through the knitting on the facing fold line.
|I blame the bad lighting effect on my sewing machine light.
If you look very closely in the next photo you can see the cranberry color machine stitches.
After removing the white thread, I folded the facing back and sewed it in place for the length of the neck ribbing, and from the lower edge of the sweater up to the top of the pocket facing. Except for the yarn ends used at the very top and very bottom, I used the cranberry colored sewing thread so as not to add any more bulk.
A close-up photo may show why I like the stitching to look good on the inside. If the top of the zipper is worn a bit opened, this stitching will show.
I consider my zipper application to be the best possible for this particular project. A very important point I like to make about making (anything) is that what is best for one project might be very different from what is best for another.
Happy knitting (and finishing) to you!

Five Rules for Recording Great Acoustic Tones
For Birdsong at Morning's latest, A Slight Departure [Blue Gentian], guitarist/producer Alan Williams didn't just craft beautiful acoustic textures. He orchestrated his acoustic tracks into a 5.1 surround mix for a deep, compelling listening experience. Here, Williams details some of his studio strategies.
—Matt Blackett
1 Always start with a nice instrument. This should be obvious.
2 Be vigilant about tuning. However, the instruments with the most interesting tones may also possess idiosyncratic intonation. You can address these issues with modern studio techniques—such as tuning the guitar for certain positions, adjusting the tuning for other positions, and then editing between the two. Pitch correction plug-ins are very effective at single-note material, and slightly less so for polyphonic passages.
3 Record the part with a clear sense of how it will live in the final mix. If the song is driving and aggressive, try a single guitar part recorded in mono with a fair amount of compression. But if the acoustic guitar is going to command more of the musical focus, recording in stereo might be a better approach. For A Slight Departure, I conceived the mixes for 5.1 surround from the very beginning. I'd record a core guitar track in stereo, and then record different left and right takes in mono, allowing me to place some of this "icing" in the rear speakers.
4 Be mindful of the performer's comfort level. Some fingerings feel really good when I'm lying back on a couch, but are far more awkward when I'm standing or sitting upright. In the end, find the way of playing that feels most comfortable, and then let the recording process conform to that, rather than the other way around. This can present challenges for keeping mic placement consistent, but it may result in more musical performances.
5 Use fresh strings. They will have faster response in the high frequencies, and will do better with fluctuations in energy and overtones—something that EQ adjustments can't quite account for.

ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, MD -- As the second generation of the Army's tactical communications network backbone prepares to begin fielding in October, the third generation of the network also moves ahead, becoming a formally chartered program.
Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T) Increment 2 provides an initial on-the-move communications network down to the company level, while Increment 3 builds on previous increments, providing advanced capabilities including an air tier that will extend connectivity across the battlefield and improve network availability for "full" networking on-the-move.
"Today the Army and the OSD [Office of the Secretary of Defense] recognized the criticality of WIN-T Increment 3 as a formally charted ACAT [Acquisition Category] 1D program," said Lt. Col. Robert Collins, product manager (PdM) for WIN-T Increment 2, and outgoing PdM for WIN-T Increment 3. "It is certainly a rewarding and exciting time personally and professionally, and I look forward to many exciting times ahead."To commemorate the historic event, incoming PdM for WIN-T Increment 3, Lt. Col. Joseph W. Roberts, assumed the PdM WIN-T Increment 3 charter from Collins during a change of charter ceremony held at the Myer Auditorium in Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md. on June 29. Collins will continue with his ongoing position as PdM for WIN-T Increment 2.
"Rob has been managing two ACAT 1D programs for the Department Of Defense over the last two years; normally programs that size would each be led by an O6 [colonel]," said Col. Ed Swanson, project manager (PM) for WIN-T, who hosted the ceremony. "He has done a phenomenal job."
Similar to a home Internet connection, WIN-T Increment 1 provides Soldiers with high-speed, high-capacity voice, data and video communications down to battalion level units "at-the-halt." WIN-T Increment 2 introduces networking radios; enhances Network Operations (NetOps) for network planning and monitoring; pushes capability to the company level and supports operations while "on-the-move." It is a vital piece of Capability Set 13 -- the first integrated group of network technologies that will be fielded to Army brigade combat teams starting in October 2012.
The capabilities of WIN-T Increment 2 were recently put to the test in harsh realistic operational environments during its three-week Initial Operational Test and Evaluation (IOT&E), which wrapped up on schedule at the end of May. The test was conducted in conjunction with the Army's Network Integration Evaluation 12.2, the third in a series of semi-annual evaluations designed to rapidly integrate and mature the Army's tactical network. The bulk of the IOT&E was held at White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), N.M.; however, to truly stress and test the network, WIN-T Increment 2 nodes were spread across 2,000 miles of the United States and the test involved more than 4,000 Soldiers and civilians.
"Rob recently completed a very large complex challenging test of the WIN-T Increment 2 program down at White Sands Missile Range, and now he is standing in the door ready to start fielding that capability, the Army's first on-the-move capability for their tactical network," Swanson said. "Well done."
The third generation of the network, WIN-T Increment 3, is still in the development phase, but it will continue the further development of "full" on-the-move networking capabilities. WIN-T Increment 3 is making advancements in NetOps, the communication officer's tool to command and control the network. It also continues developmental testing on the JC4ISR radio, which combines a number of WIN-T waveforms into one Software Defined Radio. The radio makes great strides in improving throughput range and capacity, while reducing size, weight and power requirements.
One of the premier components of WIN-T Increment 3 is the addition of an air tier layer to the WIN-T architecture to extend connectivity across the battlefield and improve network availability. PM WIN-T continues to develop and test a communication package to attach to an aerial platform that will offload network communications from satellite transponders to the aerial tier, enhancing the reliability of the network. With the addition of the air tier, the Soldier will then possess a three-tiered communication network (terrestrial, air and celestial) providing maximum flexibility and connectivity in support of full spectrum combat operations.
"This is a phenomenal program with a phenomenal team running it," said Roberts, incoming PdM for WIN-T Increment 3. "Rob has left some big shoes for me to fill."
In his previous position Roberts served as the Operations Officer for the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Procurement).
Currently on schedule for a fiscal year 2015 Milestone C decision, WIN-T Increment 3's limited user testing is scheduled for early 2015, with its operational test and fielding projected for the 2018 timeframe.
"What this combined team has done over the past several years has been nothing short of remarkable," Collins said to the PM WIN-T workforce during the ceremony. "All of you on the team should be proud of your accomplishments and what we have done in support of our nation and our Soldiers. The most rewarding part of my job has been getting to know and getting to work with each one of you -- the folks that make it happen."

"I was standing in the back of Beerland one night, drinking beer, and there was this band onstage that people seemed to be looking at like there was something wrong with them…They were great musicians, but it wasn't like any kind of music you could identify. I was just blown away by them." -- Charles Aaron, SPIN
"…the music is a channeling of the best in vintage power pop and rock, kind of like an imagined jam between Television, the Flamin' Groovies and Tommy James & the Shondells with some Who wattage thrown in for good measure. Crafting one of the year's most joyous, retro-embracing records in new release 2 Over Ten, the act gets further points for making the album in Memphis at Easley-McCain Studios with the Reigning Sound's Greg Cartwright co-producing." -- Commercial Appeal

Iris Keyboard Typing
I've decided to start doing typing videos of all my new keyboard builds. Every keyboard I've built or used has its own unique sound. Some are very 'pingy', others have a low chock sound, others are more crisp. Every keyboard feels different, every keyboard sounds different. It's worth documenting.
This board, my Iris with Alps SKCM brown switches produces a mostly low thock sound, with light pinging from some of the outer edge keys.
