[JURIST] The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit [official website] on Friday denied [text, PDF] a petition for rehearing in the case of Wadih El-Hage [GlobalSecurity profile] who was convicted of the 1998 bombing of two US embassies [PBS backgrounder] in Tanzania and Kenya. El-Hage's petition for rehearing contended that the circuit court's earlier decision [opinion, PDF, JURIST report] on Fourth Amendment challenges omitted any consideration of whether challenged searches were supported by probable cause and that the court failed to consider whether the searches could be conducted at all. In denying the petition, the court said:
Contrary to the petitioners claim, our reasonableness inquiry was not confined to the execution of the searches, but more broadly considered whether the searches comported with Fourth Amendment standards. As noted, the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review performed a substantially similar "totality of the circumstances" analysis, when faced with a similar challenge, to determine the reasonableness under the Fourth Amendment of the surveillance in question. That court's reasonableness inquiry, like our own, considered both the circumstances giving rise to the decision to conduct the surveillance and the breadth of the surveillance that was subsequently conducted. [citations omitted]
[JURIST] Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert [official website] on Thursday placed justice minister Daniel Friedman [official profile] in charge of defending Israel against war crimes charges stemming from the conflict in Gaza [BBC backgrounder]. Olmert appointed Friedman to head an inter-ministerial team to investigate [Ynet report] and form a legal defense against potential war crimes charges for the civilians and military personnel involved in Israel's 22-day assault on Gaza. The attacks have garnered international condemnation by the UN and the European Union [JURIST reports], and on Monday Amnesty International (AI) [advocacy website] accused Israel of war crimes [press release, JURIST report], citing the use of white phosphorous [GlobalSecurity backgrounder] in the midst of a dense civilian population. Following the advocacy group's accusation, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon [official profile] demanded [statement] on Tuesday that those responsible for bombing UN buildings in Palestinian territory be held responsible for using excessive force. Israeli defense minister Ehud Barak [official profile] explained in a statement that the government must give defense to those involved in the attacks, as they were following government orders in Operation Cast Lead.Last week, International Criminal Court (ICC) [official website] prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo [official profile] said that the ICC lacks jurisdiction [JURIST report] to investigate possible war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza. Moreno-Ocampo's statement came after calls by the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) [advocacy website] for the UN Security Council [official website] to refer Israel to the ICC for an investigation. Moreno-Ocampo said the court currently lacks jurisdiction over Israel because it is not a member state.
[JURIST] Both Russia and Georgia must investigate possible violations of the laws of war [HRW press release] during and after the week-long South Ossetia conflict [BBC backgrounder] in August 2008, according to a report [text, PDF] released Friday by Human Rights Watch (HRW) [advocacy website]. The report, entitled "Up in Flames: Humanitarian Law Violations in the Conflict Over South Ossetia," alleges that Russian, Georgian, and South Ossetian militias violated the four Geneva Conventions of 1949 [materials] and its First Additional Protocol of 1977 [text], to which both Georgia and Russia are parties. The report further claims that Georgia violated the Second Additional Protocol of 1977 [text] to the Geneva Conventions, to which it is a party. The alleged violations involve attacks on civilians and civilian targets, use of cluster bombs [JURIST news archive], poor treatment of prisoners of war and detained civilians, and the displacement of Georgian civilians. The report says that these violations flow from:
the indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks by both Georgian and Russian forces, ... the South Ossetian forces' campaign of deliberate and systematic destruction of certain ethnic Georgian villages in South Ossetia [and from] Russia's failure to ensure public order and safety in areas of Georgia that were under its effective control.
[JURIST] The prison formerly known as Abu-Ghraib [CBC backgrounder, JURIST news archive] will be reopened as soon as renovations are completed, and will be renamed Baghdad Central Prison, officials from the Iraqi Ministry of Justice in Baghdad announced on Thursday. Several Iraqi government officials, including Acting Justice Minister Safaaldeen Al-Safi have visited the site [KUNA report] to inspect the work in progress, which officials say will meet international standards once completed. The Iraqi Cabinet [official website, in Arabic] approved the Defense Ministry's proposal to reopen the prison [JURIST report] in September of 2008.The prison, which was the site of the US detainee torture scandal, was returned to the Iraqi government [JURIST report] in late 2006. In December 2008, the Senate Armed Services Committee [official website] reported [text, PDF] that senior US officials are responsible [JURIST report] for the use of abusive interrogation techniques against detainees held in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo Bay. Their bipartisan report explicitly rejected Bush administration claims that tough interrogation methods have helped keep the country and its troops safe and stated that the abuse of prisoners at Abu Ghraib, "was not simply the result of a few soldiers acting on their own" but grew out of interrogation policies approved by former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and other top officials. Earlier this month, US President Barack Obama said during an interview that he has not ruled out prosecuting officials for rights abuses [JURIST report] committed under the Bush administration.
[JURIST] US President Barack Obama [official profile] on Thursday ordered a review [text] of the detention of Qatar national Ali Saleh Kahlah al-Marri [NYT profile; JURIST news archive]. Al-Marri is the only individual currently being held on US soil by the Department of Defense (DOD) [official website] as an enemy combatant [JURIST news archive], and is unaffected by Obama's order to close [text; JURIST report] the offshore Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] prison facility. The order calls for the participation and cooperation of the Attorney General, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Director of National Intelligence, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and others in quickly resolving the matter. In December, the Supreme Court granted certiorari [JURIST report] in al-Marri's case to review a ruling [JURIST report] by the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit upholding his indefinite detention. Counsel for petitioner al-Marri filed a brief [text, PDF] Wednesday. On Thursday, Acting Solicitor General Edwin Kneedler requested an extension [text, PDF] of the deadline for the government's brief, currently due February 20, to allow for the government to resolve the matter in compliance with Obama's order. According to the request, al-Marri has consented to the extension.Al-Marri was arrested at his home in Peoria, Illinois by civilian authorities in 2001, and was indicted for other crimes. In 2003, then-President George W. Bush declared him an enemy combatant [CNN report] and ordered the attorney general to transfer custody of al-Marri to the defense secretary, claiming inherent authority to hold him indefinitely. Al-Marri has claimed abuse [JURIST report] while being held in a US Navy brig in Charleston, South Carolina, where he currently remains.
[JURIST] Human rights figures and political leaders around the world hailed Thursday's executive order [text; JURIST report] by US President Barack Obama closing the Guantanamo Bay [JURIST archive] detention facility. UN High Commissioner for Human Rights [official website] Navi Pillay [official profile] welcomed the decision [statement; video] to close the prison, expressing hope that it would be closed soon and that the trials of detainees would take place in ordinary courts rather than in military commissions, which she said should be disbanded. Pillay called for accountability for those who controlled centers like Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo, and for compensation for those detainees found to be innocent. UN Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment Manfred Nowak [official website] similarly welcomed the news as a sign of goodwill, but once again alluded [JURIST report] to the administration's obligation to do justice by prosecuting the parties responsible for detainee abuses, and said freed inmates should be allowed to sue the US if they suffered harm. The European Union (EU) Czech Presidency [official website] issued a statement [text] welcoming Obama's order as a gesture of "great symbolic and practical significance [that] could facilitate strengthening transatlantic counter-terrorism and security cooperation, based on the respect of international law and human rights." In Cuba, Foreign Minister Felipe Roque [official profile, in Spanish] also welcomed the news, but called for the US to completely close the military base and return the land to Cuban sovereignty. President Hamid Karzai [official website] of Afghanistan said closing Guantanamo that it would help build international support in combating terrorism.Obama's order directed that the military prison be closed "as soon as practicable, and no later than 1 year from the date of this order." The order also instructed Secretary of Defense Robert Gates to immediately halt military commission [DOD materials; JURIST news archive] proceedings pending a comprehensive review of all Guantanamo detentions under the supervision of the Attorney General. The order did not specify where detainees would go upon release, but it did call for diplomatic efforts with foreign states in order to facilitate the closure of the facility.
[JURIST] Admiral Dennis Blair, nominated [press release, JURIST report] by US President Barack Obama [official profile] for Director of National Intelligence, on Thursday stressed his respect for civil liberties and lawfulness in intelligence investigations during testimony [text, PDF] before the Senate Intelligence Committee [official website] in anticipation of his expected appointment. Blair addressed the treatment of detainees by stating his opposition to the use of torture and agreement with Obama's order to close [JURIST report] the Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] detention facility. Blair said that he planned to:
carry out the mission of the Intelligence Community in a manner consistent with our Nations values, consistent with our Constitution and consistent with the rule of law. The intelligence agencies of the United States must respect the privacy and civil liberties of the American people, and they must adhere to the rule of law.
[JURIST] The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugolavia (ICTY) [official website; JURIST news archive] on Wednesday charged [text, PDF; press release] Volislav Seselj [ICTY materials; JURIST news archive] with contempt of court after it was alleged that Seselj authored a book revealing pertinent information about several key witnesses. The book is believed to have been published after a protective order was placed by the court [UN News Centre report] to keep the identity of the witnesses a secret. The book contains such information as the names of the witnesses, the names of their wives and children, and their addresses. The charge of contempt states:
Having reviewed the material provided by the Prosecution, the Chamber has reason to believe that Vojislav Seselj, the apparent author of the book, may be in contempt of the Tribunal by virtue of the disclosure of information that might identify or lead to the identification of protected witnesses and for disclosing parts of a witness statement, in contravention of orders given by the Trial Chamber conducting the trial of Vojislav Seselj. As indicated earlier, there is evidence the book was published after the relevant orders had been made. The chamber is therefore persuaded that it should initiate proceedings against Vojislav Seselj under Rule 77(C)(iii). The material before us satisfies the Chamber that there are sufficient grounds to proceed against Vojislav Seselj for contempt pursuant to Rule 77(D)(ii).

Garbanzo-Vegetable Green Curry Recipe
My son loves anything with coconut milk, so I always keep some on hand for weeknight meals like this one. For a milder version, I like to use red or yellow curry paste instead of green. —Marie Parker, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
- 3 cups frozen cauliflower
- 2 cans (15 ounces each) garbanzo beans or chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 can (13.66 ounces) coconut milk
- 1/4 cup green curry paste
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon cold water
- 1-1/2 cups frozen peas
- 2 packages (8.8 ounces each) ready-to-serve long grain rice
- 1/2 cup lightly salted cashews
- In a large skillet, combine cauliflower, beans, coconut milk, curry paste and salt. Bring to a boil; cook, uncovered, 5-6 minutes or until cauliflower is tender.
- Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually stir into the skillet. Stir in peas. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
- Meanwhile, prepare rice according to package directions. Sprinkle cauliflower mixture with cashews. Serve with rice. Yield: 6 servings.

This was a very quick dinner to prepare. My advantage is my pantry being stocked for foods I like best. My love for Thai food and curries means I usually have canned coconut milk and prepared curries on hand. I also keep a variety of frozen vegetables In the freezer and canned beans in my pantry. When I read the ingredients I didn't have to purchase any extra ingredients. My husband and I loved it for the great flavor and I also loved the convenience! It also has become a staple in our menus of no meat meals. Thank you!

Meet Whisper, the secret-sharing juggernaut that is taking over teenage confessionals.
The Washington Post briefly screwed up its own breaking news.
Accidentally, with a shotgun.
Not an occupational hazard we would have predicted.
"The Secret Service is mourning the loss of a valued colleague," said the agency.
Including the childhood tales the world is clamoring for.
In his defense, he was high at the time.
Smells like trouble.
The man also made threats about explosives in his apartment.
This will be more exciting when it ends up on Law & Order.
What happens when the "Secret Circus" comes to town doesn't always stay there.
The accident occurred in Bed-Stuy.
"I'm not going to give you a blow-by-blow of what's involved in the review."
The Hilton in Cartagena.

Police have arrested a man who they say was involved in a sex trafficking operation out of an apartment in East Harlem.
Taye Ellerby, 35, is charged with sex trafficking, promoting prostitution, criminal trespass and endangering the welfare of a child.
Police say he was holding three women - a 17-year-old, a 21-year-old and a 24-year-old - in an apartment in the Taft Houses at the corner of 112th Street and Madison Avenue in Manhattan.
They say at least one of the three females was forced to engage in acts of prostitution.
A 2-month-old and a 4-year-old, both believed to be children of one of the three girls inside, were also found in the apartment, according to police.
Police say Ellerby was caught after an outside party set up a fake rendezvous to get one of the women out and take her to a hotel on Long Island.
Police say that the two people went to the 17-year-old's mother's house, and the mother then called 911.
Ellerby was then identified as he was exiting the apartment, according to police, and the other girls were removed from the apartment.
Police say the three women were given keys to come and go from the apartment but were under some sort of control to stay in the apartment.
The 17-year-old was a runaway from Connecticut who had been missing since December, according to police.

From the time Jamie and Maureen Cannalte were married, they were reaching out to children, throwing birthday parties for neighborhood kids and working in the children's ministry at their church. But when they tried to start a family, they faced the heartbreak of three miscarriages, a stillbirth and the loss of a baby born prematurely. Adoption had always been part of their family plan, but though they tried twice to adopt a baby in the U.S., both birth mothers eventually changed their minds.
Despite their devastating grief, the couple's faith in God and love for children led them to pursue international adoption and foster care. Charisma covered the story of their journey to China in 1998 after they traveled there to adopt their first daughter, Amber.
Fast-forward 16 years, and today you'll find their quiver is full. Now a multiracial family of 10, the Cannaltes have "expanded their tent" through almost every kind of adoption experience there is—international and domestic, infants, older children, a sibling group of three, and even an adult adoption. They've also provided refuge for older teens who needed a place to stay as a result of difficulties with their adoptive families.
"When you open up your home and just say, 'It's yours,' God just does miracles," Maureen Cannalte says.
Sure, it's not always smooth sailing, but the Cannaltes' deep love and commitment for their children carries them through the tough times.
"With God's help, we don't just survive, but we thrive as a family," Maureen says. "We are in this together."
A Global Crisis
In a perfect world, no child would be left alone and every family would be an anchor, providing lifelong stability and a safe harbor for each child. But in reality, experts say we now face a global orphan crisis. UNICEF estimates between 143 and 210 million children worldwide are orphans, depending on how you define orphan status, and this figure continues to be impacted by the AIDS epidemic.
But it's hard to talk about the problem. The word orphan conjures images of tattered children whose parents have died or abandoned them, yet that's a narrow definition of the term today. From the glue-sniffing street child in South America to the straight-A student who sits next to your kids in school, many children considered orphans do, in fact, have one or two living parents—but because of poverty, war, incarceration, illness, drug addiction or a host of other reasons, their parents are unable or unavailable to take care of them.
The Bible refers to the orphan as "the fatherless." Some say our nation's unprecedented 62 percent of young unwed mothers contributes to the problem. Without a spouse to fall back on, a mother who faces a crisis—whether medical, emotional, financial or legal—is more likely to lose custody of her child, at least temporarily.
"We're at epic proportions," says Jay Mooney, director of the Assemblies of God's Compact Family Services in Hot Springs, Ark. "We've never faced this proportion of fatherlessness in the history of our nation."
A Quiet Movement
Despite such grim reality, a movement grows—largely under the radar—that has the potential for a cultural shift. Like the awakening of a sleeping giant, the church is becoming more intentional about what's being called the "adoption mandate," which translates into a commitment to caring for the fatherless. James 1:27 states, "Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world" (NASB).
The world's largest Pentecostal denomination, the Assemblies of God, is one example of the church's growing response. The denomination, taking a strategic approach, aims to build a task force through the church to alleviate the need. In 2012, an extensive national survey of AG congregations revealed that 68 percent of church attendees and almost half of pastors surveyed are willing to participate in orphan care in some way.
"The church has hundreds of thousands of people sitting in pews wanting to do something," says Glenn Garvin, vice president of national camps for Royal Family Kids, a year-round program for foster kids developed by the AG. "They just don't know how."
But some places have sprung up to provide the church with roadmaps. FaithBridge Foster Care in Atlanta is one such organization. Its "Community of Care" model, developed in partnership with the AG, invites volunteers within a church body to come alongside families serving foster children in the system. This support model provides respite and support to families that often feel overwhelmed by the bureaucracy and demands of the system and provides them with a type of extended family, thus enlarging their capacity to make a quality difference in the lives of the children under their care.
Christian Alliance for Orphans, led by Jedd Medefind, is another organization seeking to grow the impact of the local church's commitment to caring for the fatherless and equipping Christians for an effective response.
"God is the father to the fatherless," Medefind says. "But God expresses His love through us. ... As a Christian community, we must take special care of those children who are deprived of a normal family environment, deprived of parents who are not there for them anymore for different reasons. We must take care of them with our love and attention."
A Visible Gospel
More than a social safety net, the adoption mandate makes the gospel visible.
"This is a spiritual trauma as clearly as emotional trauma," says Joanne Feldmeth, vice president of Royal Family Kids' national clubs and mentors. "The church has always been called to do this job."
That's because the orphan represents a broken parent-child relationship, not unlike our separation from God as a result of sin. The restoration of that relationship, which faith in Jesus Christ offers, is clearly called "adoption" in Scripture (Rom. 8:14-16).
"Nothing has been more profound in pulling back the invisible veil than adoption," says Steven Curtis Chapman, top Dove Award recording artist who with his wife, Mary Beth, already had three biological children when they adopted three daughters from China. After their first daughter, Shaohannah, joined their family in 2000, he says it was like an epiphany hit him.
"[It showed] the reality that this is what God has done for us—this is as tangible as it gets," he says. "Here's a little girl who had no hope, no future, no name—and in a moment, she's our child, she's got our hope, she's got our name.
"For fathers, we are entrusted with this incredible gift of revealing—as we trust God in our struggling, bumbling way—who God the Father is. We have a great responsibility with that. ... We are called and invited to reveal [God] to our children and the world."
Jamie Cannalte agrees, saying, "When all the world sees from the church is what we stand against, this is an amazing opportunity for the world to see love flowing out of us."
An Opportune Bridge
Yet without the moorings a permanent family offers, children often drift into dangerous waters where they are easily exploited. According to a Fox News report, the majority of victims snagged into sex trafficking in the U.S. are foster kids or runaways between the ages of 13 and 16. In many cases, nobody even notices they go missing.
It's a danger the Cannaltes know all too well. About 10 years ago, while living near the Mexican border in Texas, a stranger tried to kidnap one of the Cannalte girls from her own front porch. Just as the stranger was trying to lure the 6-year-old into his car, someone opened the front door of the house and the man sped off.
"He would have been in Mexico [with her] in minutes," Maureen says with a shudder.
Thankfully, as most adoption agencies offer pre- and post-adoption support, the Cannaltes received counseling and play therapy from their agency to deal with the trauma of the event. Yet there were certainly other times when, feeling overwhelmed as a new mom, Maureen says she reached out to churches for help but nobody responded.
"That was one of the roughest points in my motherhood," she says.
But better days may be ahead, as public and private nonprofit agencies have begun, more and more, to link arms with faith-based organizations that want to provide practical volunteer support for the foster and adoptive communities. With increased needs and decreased funding, it's time for all hands on deck, and there's something everybody can do, from fundraising and diaper drives to mentoring and respite care.
"The need has far outgrown the capacity," Mooney says. "What is emerging as meeting a need is wraparound services—you wrap the church around the need."
In the U.S. alone, more than 400,000 children flood the foster system, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. While adoption is now more acceptable and open than it once was, only 52,000 children were adopted in 2012, partly because adoptive parents are less equipped or less willing to take in sibling groups, older kids and those with special medical or emotional needs. The average child stays in foster care for more than three years, and half live in three or more homes during that time, waiting to be reunited with their families.
"What every foster kid knows when you walk in the door is that you're leaving," Feldmeth says of the challenge.
"The nature of foster care is temporary," echoes David Jordan, executive director of Agape Child and Family Services in Memphis, Tenn. "But over a long period of time, you are in temporary status. The child thinks, 'I don't have a place that's home. Who is going to walk me down the aisle?'"
Even the label foster kid is problematic, Jordan says, as it carries the stigma of a troubled youth.
"When you say, 'I'm a child in foster care,' it's a place in life. Singling them out [as a social class] identifies them as though there's something wrong with them," he says. "The child feels at fault because he is the one removed from the home."
According to Mooney, the traditional approach to foster care is focused on the child, but the modern approach is ministry to the birth family as well—so that if the child returns home, they don't run into the same mistakes.
"We need to redeem the family for the sake of the child," he says.
And creating an intentional support system through the church can make all the difference in a positive outcome for all involved.
A Way In
Although men sometimes find it hard to talk about personal relationships, fathers particularly have a lot to offer to shipwrecked families.
"We work really hard to recruit males," Garvin says.
And it's a win-win situation because the experience taps the hearts of the men as well as kids.
"Once they meet the children in this community, that child and that faith and that story gets embedded in the adult's life," Garvin says.
Organized programs, like Garvin's Royal Family Kids camps, can be a great place to start, but simply befriending foster and adoptive couples—offering to babysit or attend the kids' recitals and sports events—is another practical way to show support.
Individuals and churches can also seek to wrap around families by providing transitional services, as up to 30,000 kids "age out" of foster care each year after they turn 18 unless they continue their education. But with only a 50 percent high school graduation rate among them, few go to college, and high unemployment rates contribute to their becoming homeless or turning to crime.
As one solution to this transition challenge, Compact Family Services manages a 24-apartment home for aged-out foster kids who need a place to live while learning about life skills and job training.
"[The program] is replicable," Mooney says, "but you have to have a facility for it."
And then there are the college students catching the vision for the adoption mandate. Show Hope, an orphan care ministry based in Nashville and started by the Chapmans 10 years ago, hosts the "Red Bus Project," a mobile thrift store housed in a double-decker bus. It rolls onto college campuses with a festival atmosphere and an invitation for students to shop, learn about the ministry of Show Hope and donate gently used items to be resold. Proceeds are used for adoption grants.
"We need to put efforts forward to the next generation, raising awareness ... so the orphan cause is in their DNA," says Show Hope's executive director, Scott Hasenbalg.
Show Hope's grants have helped more than 4,000 people adopt children to date, though they've had to turn away more than 6,000 others because of limited funds. The ministry encourages students to find creative ways to raise support for the cause.
"Part of that entrepreneurial spirit ... is created for [students] to have an on-ramp and get a taste of what it means to help facilitate a life-changing event for others," Hasenbalg says.
More than 14,000 students have participated in Show Hope's programs to date. But like any cause, it's hard to tell if students and adults will adopt the mandate for the long haul.
"It'll go through a fad phase, but it'll separate itself out," Hasenbalg says. "The emotional response will only last so long. It'll take time for the mandate to truly seep in."
Only time will tell how this wave of volunteerism and cooperation will impact the culture of orphan care. But for every child and family who is touched by it, it creates whole worlds of change.

I recently had a similar problem where I got intermittent "Immobilizer" messages.
According to my mechanic (20+ years of Volvo experience) the connector between the antenna ring and the wiring harness sometimes causes problems - taking it off, spraying it with contact cleaner, and re-seating it fixes these. It could be that the vibrations from hitting the ...
That is usually caused by a tired ancilliary belt (the one that drives the alternator etc) - as the rubber ages, it grips less well and slips more against the pulleys, especially when cold and damp. After a couple of minutes it dries out and warms up, and so stops slipping.
The timing belt itself is toothed, and so cannot slip (it would cause a catastrophic ...
There are four possible culprits:
The vehicle speed sensor which plugs into the back of the differential
The wiring from the speed sensor to the back of the instrument panel
The printed circuit board on the back of the instrument cluster
The speedometer itself
As always with electrical problems, test the simplest/cheapest component first. In this case, ...
One answer is simply to wait - according to the manual, after 5 hours the immobilizer will reset, and in fact the next morning the car started fine.
I took it into a independent Volvo shop today, and was told that the connection on the antenna ring sometimes goes bad, but the ring itself rarely needs to be replaced - taking off the connector and spraying ...
Firstly, I'm going to asume the bodyshell is sound, as there is no point doing anything if it is rotten (and Volvos of that age can rot very badly) - You'd end up spending hundreds on getting it welded back together...
I'll give an idea of prices in Sterling, obviously costs vary depending on where you are...
Creaks and groans are often a ...
I've owned several FWD cars and the clicking, especially while turning or accelerating, is a pretty sure sign of a CV (constant velocity) joint going. So if your mechanic told you "joints," +1 to that.
Further info:
You can usually drive a ways (5000mi/8000km) before the sound becomes unbearable. I never got past the clicking phase, but I'm told you ...
Having owned several of that generation Volvo ('93 965, '94 964, '94 965), I will start by saying "The US delivery Volvo headlights of that era are terrible!" The light does not go where it needs to go, and even adding more light will not help that much.
I have had some success putting the Sylvania XS bulbs in. They have a slightly different spectrum from ...
I'd be very concerned. It sounds like the wastegate may possibly be stuck closed, preventing it from bleeding excess pressure, which would allow the car to overboost. Higher than normal boost will provide better performance, but is likely to do engine damage unless the car has been otherwise modified to accept the higher boost. Some cars have overboost ...
First step, remove, clean and reinstall the battery terminals.
Check the fluid level in the battery (if possible)
Slow charge the battery on the lowest setting (not the "maintain" setting) overnight.
See my answer here for more information on how to check the battery.
The 92's are known for their speedometer failures.
I bought a replacement speedometer from www.techbargains.com. Kinda.
It's made by Garmin, and when I put it on the dashboard it tells me how fast I'm going. And where I'm at, and what direction I'm going, as well as my elevation from sea level. AND I can enter an address and it tells me how to get there.
The solution I found was using GROM Audio (http://www.gromaudio.com/) and bought their iPhone package. Got it installed in 10 min or so, quite simple. However, sometimes I have to power on and off the radio a few times for the Grom audio box to understand it is connected.
Tutorials can be found on their website!
Might be the CEM, if it has anything to do with the instrument cluster. Might just be the wiring, as was the case here. Though not being able to flash your powertrain controller due to the key position seems to point to the ignition cylinder or some of the wiring to it.
If you really do have a CEM fault, you can see if you can find a wholesale source ...
If you had given that description without the screwdriver part, it would sound to me like your car is one of those that has a chip in the key where not just any key matching the physical cut will work, it has to be in combination with the car reading the chip. The goal being more security to keep someone from getting a hold of your key and making a copy of ...
Old, tired wiring will often cause dim headlamps as halogen bulbs are very sensitive to low voltages. As Jaime says, a lot of older cars didn't have relayed headlamps (although I would have expected Volvo to do so), so if you've not got them, the full current for the lamps is runnning through the entire wiring system.
The best way to test this is to check ...
Have the lenses become cloudy? This can happen over time and you can buy kits to polish and clear them up. If they're not cloudy, check how many volts are getting to the lights themselves with a volt meter.
I'm not sure how the circuit in your car works, but if it doesn't use relays to power the lights, your light switch can be absorbing some of the power.
The tailpipe and silencer assembly is what you have pictured. The tailpipe and silencer is at the end of your exhaust system. Because of its position in the system it gets hotter and colder more often, and corrodes more quickly then any other part of the exhaust. Exhausts tend to rust from the inside to the outside first. This is what has happened, and it ...
I don't know why he would beat on your car, as the problem will likely just return. The problem likely lies in one of these places: The tag in the key itself (RFID) read by the computers, the ring that provides the field required to read the tag, or the computer that recognizes the tag. Beating it fixes nothing.
Did he say why you needed new lower control arms? Usually the bushings just need to be replaced not the entire control arm.
If he was talking about the CV joints needing to be replaced, they have seals and rubber boots that cover them. If the rubber boots or seals have cracked due to being old, it could let the grease escape from the CV joint. Then as the ...
They will absolutely fit, there are a few things you will need to do before running them, one is you are going to need or should use hub-centric rings to make that center bore the same size, otherwise expect vibrations at high speeds.
Also you may want to run a spacer, because of the difference in offset with the volvo wheels. You should be able to source ...
You have a 9.5mm difference in offset between the two, and a 1.8mm difference in centre bore - so they will physically fit, but it is not recommended.
The difference in offset means that the wheels will sit further in towards the centre of the car. This could lead to rubbing against the suspension or arches, although you should be able to check this to ...
The ABS diagnostic port is under the hood, in the same assembly as the OBD port. I have never been able to get information from it, however. The best instructions I've been able to find did not work when I tried them.
I asked a question about this previously, but so far it does not have an answer:
Reading ABS diagnostic codes on a Volvo 940
The first thing you should do is check for a blown fuse, it's very easy to blow a fuse when taking a battery out or installing a new battery.
There is an ABS sensor near each of your four wheels, if one has gone bad or is disconnected, that will cause your ABS light to stay on. It's a 1992, so the garage may have to forego using any diagnostic readers and ...
Before investing in new switches, you might consider testing the wiring as well. Run your own, known-good wires from the switches to the window motor (this will require removing the interior trim from the door), and see what happens.
While you have the door apart, you could also try lubricating the window mechanism. It might just be sticking.
Make sure you have completed all the routine maintenance specified by your owners manual or a repair manual. Specifically Replacing:
Spark Plugs, Plug Wires, Distributor, etc.
Filters (Air, Fuel, Oil, Transmission Fluid)
Drain and fill your Transmission Fluid and Coolant
When your coolant has been drained, check and possibly ...
Had a similar problem with my 2006 1.8 petrol s40. Immobilizer stuck on, "immobilizer, see manual" error message. I checked all fuses, wiring etc, lock unlock 5 times myth and disconnected my battery for half an hour!
I was on the verge of calling an auto electrician out when I stumbled upon a post that advised me to turn the key all the way to the firing ...
Most of the model specific nature of an exhaust system is not the muffler itself but the piping and how it attaches to the underneath of the car.
It has to be sized and bent properly to work its way through from the front to back.

► Oncogenic c-Myc occupies promoters of most active genes in tumor cells ► Oncogenic c-Myc increases RNA levels within cell's existing gene expression program ► Oncogenic c-Myc is an amplifier, not a specifier, of gene expression in cancer cells
Elevated expression of the c-Myc transcription factor occurs frequently in human cancers and is associated with tumor aggression and poor clinical outcome. The effect of high levels of c-Myc on global gene regulation is poorly understood but is widely thought to involve newly activated or repressed "Myc target genes." We report here that in tumor cells expressing high levels of c-Myc the transcription factor accumulates in the promoter regions of active genes and causes transcriptional amplification, producing increased levels of transcripts within the cell's gene expression program. Thus, rather than binding and regulating a new set of genes, c-Myc amplifies the output of the existing gene expression program. These results provide an explanation for the diverse effects of oncogenic c-Myc on gene expression in different tumor cells and suggest that transcriptional amplification reduces rate-limiting constraints for tumor cell growth and proliferation.

My favorite is Heracross.
Last edited by Midorikawa; 18th August 2012 at 11:23 PM.
Mine is a little bit out of the box, and it may be because it's from the current generation but, Maractus is my favorite Pokemon without an evolution. I love cactii and Maractus seems so fun and festive.
Absol. I love its design. I've seen some people say that it could use a pre-evolution, but I think it is just fine on its own. I've never actually used one in the game, but I would consider training one sometime if I could be bothered to play the games more often.
Castform because it can change forms! XDD
Out of all those, I like...
-Heracross. It has high Attack, it's one of the most powerful Bug-types, and it's adorable.
-Skarmory. Very bulky, easy to use, and cool-looking.
-Audino. Also resistant, has much more movepool options, and kinda cute.
-Sigilyph. Has neat Sp. Attack and Speed, and it's creepy cool. Looking forward to train one in BW2 as well.
i can't choose just one... not even gonna touch legendaries, 'cause i'd be here all night.
corsola -- it's hella kawaii. what other reason do i need B)
tropius -- dude, it's like a flying tropical brontosaurus or some'n. idk how any could dislike it.
kecleon -- love that color change ability! so unique & cute~
absol -- tight design, yo. any pkmn that can predict disasters is cool in my book.
sableye -- ghost + gemstones for eyes = awesome. there is no denying it.
lunatone -- one of my hoenn pokebros. levitate & earthquake all the way, son!
gen 3 was the best when it came to no-evo pokemon.
My favourite Pokemon of all is also a Pokemon without an evolution.
The OP [which I quoted above] states that this thread's topic doesn't include legendaries. You four should probably try to read the first post of threads before posting in future.
My favourite non-evolvers are:
- Absol. Seems this is also a lot of people's favourite. My favourite pokemon.
- Torkoal. It's just cute! Also my [joint] favourite pokemon with Absol.
- Bouffalant. Hilariously cool design and it's very strong. It's grown on me a lotlike its afro
- Heracross. Just a badass bug type (also cute).
- Volbeat. aksjfksdkasjd it's just too cute! I love its design.
- Mawile. Just another favourite of mine.
- Girafarig. Always had a soft spot for it since Gen II.
- Heatmor. Badass flamethrowing anteater. Awesome.
- Emolga. Another cutie. I also like the design + colour schemes (plus Iris's in the anime make me laugh)
- Skarmory. Very cool.
- Dunsparce. Another mon that I've grown to like. I love its design and colours.
- Zangoose. One of my favourite mons without a doubt.
- Kecleon. Cute!
- Solrock. I have no idea why but I just love this poke.
So after a huge list xD my favourites are Torkoal and Absol. I can't choose between those two. But I love all the non-evolvers I've listed above really.
Zeb: 0361-6364-1279
Thunderbolts and Lightningrods!
My XY trade shop: offering IV breeding leftovers, special Pokeball females and egg move parents!
Hey, people make mistakes. We're not morons. Also, maybe YOU should consider that perhaps that rule wasn't there when we posted. Because I'm sure the OP was edited after I did. I read the OP before posting and that rule was not there.
Anyway, I don't have a favorite non-evolving Pokemon outside of legendaries because I generally don't like them.

(Relaxnews)—Researchers from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore recruited 75 men and women who were non-gamers to play five different games on their smartphones for an hour a day. Randomly assigned to groups, subjects played spatial memory games such as "Bejeweled," hidden object games such as "Hidden Expedition," or action games such as "Modern Combat: Sandstorm." After a month of game playing, the researchers found that subjects who played action games boosted their ability to track multiple objects in a short amount of time. Meanwhile, those who played spatial memory and hidden object games improved their performance on visual search tasks. Their results are published in the open access journal PLOS One. Another recent study from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston in the US revealed that gaming high school and college students have better hand-eye coordination and control than medical residents when it comes to surgical simulations.

Hallo everybody,
When generating a Folio in InDesign CS6 I get the messagge: "Error generating content. [Error: Impossible to find the resources of one or more layers. Check that the resources utilized are available on the disk, then apdate the article.]
The preliminary check shows a green light, all the links are connected.
I started this project with a trial version of InDesign CS6 in English, then my company gave me a registered copy in Italian. Could this be the reason of the problem or there is something else?
Run the "AdobeContentViewer.air" installer found in the following location:
Mac OS: /Applications/Adobe
Windows: C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe
Note: If you do not see that file there, you can download the latest Folio Producer component updater from the following locations. To avoid this issue, click Yes when prompted to install or update the Content Viewer.
Windows : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5376
Mac : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5377
Thanks everybody for your answers.
- What I wrote was an error message translated from Italian.
- I'm pretty sure all the updates are installed already.
- When I was working with the English Trial version everything was working fine. The proleblem started when I got a registered version in Italian.
- I pinned the mistakes down but I'm still not able to solve it. In the layout there are some audio files and when I have to select the audio controller folder from the File Controller of the Folio Overlays, I receive a ! warning thas says:
"The folder is missing or doesn't contain images. Select a folder containing resources of supported images."
That folder, called "risorse_audio", actually does contains two .png files that I created for the audio control, so I don't understand where the mistake is.
Any idea? Thanks so much.

► fMRI-based spelling device for potential communication with locked-in patients ► Each letter of the alphabet can be hemodynamically encoded by a single mental process ► Evoked single-trial fMRI responses can be decoded in real time with high accuracy ► Requires almost zero pretraining; methods can be readily used at standard MRI sites
Human communication entirely depends on the functional integrity of the neuromuscular system. This is devastatingly illustrated in clinical conditions such as the so-called locked-in syndrome (LIS) [1], in which severely motor-disabled patients become incapable to communicate naturally—while being fully conscious and awake. For the last 20 years, research on motor-independent communication has focused on developing brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) implementing neuroelectric signals for communication (e.g., [2,3,4,5,6,7]), and BCIs based on electroencephalography (EEG) have already been applied successfully to concerned patients [8,9,10,11]. However, not all patients achieve proficiency in EEG-based BCI control [12]. Thus, more recently, hemodynamic brain signals have also been explored for BCI purposes [13,14,15,16]. Here, we introduce the first spelling device based on fMRI. By exploiting spatiotemporal characteristics of hemodynamic responses, evoked by performing differently timed mental imagery tasks, our novel letter encoding technique allows translating any freely chosen answer (letter-by-letter) into reliable and differentiable single-trial fMRI signals. Most importantly, automated letter decoding in real time enables back-and-forth communication within a single scanning session. Because the suggested spelling device requires only little effort and pretraining, it is immediately operational and possesses high potential for clinical applications, both in terms of diagnostics and establishing short-term communication with nonresponsive and severely motor-impaired patients.

MO AG suing Walgreens for allegedly overcharging customers
Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster says the drugstore chain Walgreens is overcharging customers on about 20 percent of the items it sells.
Koster has filed a civil lawsuit against the Illinois-based retailer after undercover investigators in his office visited eight stores across the state, including two in the St. Louis area.
Koster says in some cases, the price posted on the shelf was for a sale that had long expired. In other cases, the retailer promised discounted prices for rewards members, then charged the regular price at the checkout.
Koster says anyone who feels they were overcharged, or who witnesses deceptive pricing should call the Missouri Consumer Hotline at 1-800-392-8222 or visit his website.
In response to the lawsuit, Walgreens issued the following statement:
"We have a 112-year history of acting in our customers' best interests, and that will continue to be our focus. While we won't comment on the complaint itself, we were disappointed and disagree with the attorney general's comments. However, we are prepared to have a constructive dialogue about the issues he raised and address any appropriate concerns."
Environmentalists sue MO over renewable energy
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - An environmental group is heading to court in another attempt to overturn the way Missouri officials have implemented a 2008 ballot initiative about renewable energy.
The initiative requires investor-owned utilities to tap renewable energy sources for at least 5 percent of their electricity by 2014, with that amount gradually rising to 15 percent by 2021.
In 2011, the Legislature blocked part of an administrative rule that would have required the electricity from renewable energy sources to be produced or sold in Missouri. The result is that utilities have been able to purchase credits for renewable energy produced by others.
A lawsuit filed this past week on behalf of the Missouri Coalition for the Environment challenges the legal basis for the Legislature's action.
Missouri lawmaker files suit over health insurance requirement
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - A Missouri House member and his wife are going to court over what they say is a requirement that their group health insurance include coverage for contraception.
The Thomas More Society filed a federal lawsuit in St. Louis on Wednesday on behalf of Paul and Teresa Wieland. Paul Wieland is a Republican from Imperial.
According to court documents, the family previously opted out of coverage for contraceptives, sterilization or abortifacients. The lawsuit contends the Wielands have been told their coverage must now include contraception and sterilization because of the federal health care law.
The Wielands contend their religious, free speech and parental rights have been violated. The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment and an injunction.
Jack Clark hires attorney, stands by "PED" accusations
The former Cardinal who is in hot water for his comments linking Albert Pujols to performance enhancing drugs has hired a noted St. Louis attorney.
Jack Clark has retained Chet Pleban to represent him in any litigation started by Pujols.
Clark issued a statement Tuesday saying, "I stand by my previous remarks regarding Pujols and will rigorously defend any lawsuit that he chooses to file. Litigation is an intense fact finding process and I welcome the opportunity for a jury of 12 unbiased people to judge the credibility of my comments."
Clark was fired from his radio job after saying on air that he knew for a fact that Pujols had used PEDs.
Pujols says he will take legal action against Clark, station
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Albert Pujols says he's taking legal action against Jack Clark after the former St. Louis Cardinals star accused him of taking performance-enhancing drugs.
The injured Los Angeles Angels' slugger released a statement Friday night, saying: "I am currently in the process of taking legal action against Jack Clark and his employers at WGNU 920AM."
Clark said Pujols' former trainer, Chris Mihlfeld, told him 10 years ago that he "shot him up."
Pujols is sidelined by a partially torn plantar fascia in his left foot. He's in his second season with the Angels after 11 years in St. Louis.
No lawsuit planned against Mehlville School District
One group says they have no plans to sue the Mehlville School District.
The Children's Education Alliance of Missouri had been discussing filing a lawsuit on behalf of families in the Riverview Gardens School District.
In a news release Thursday, CEAM said the Mehlville and Kirkwood Districts have not identified spots for all students who wanted to transfer. They believe Mehlville and Kirkwood officials have been negotiating in good faith and are trying to find a positive resolution for all parties involved.
After lawsuit threat, Mehlville says they're trying to comply with transfer rules
Mehlville Superintendent Dr. Eric Knost says the district is making every effort to place students transferring in from Riverview Gardens without compromising the education of any student in the district.
Knost released a statement Monday evening in response to a lawsuit from the Children's Education Alliance of Missouri on behalf of three Riverview Gardens parents.
Mehlville has limited the number students it will accept from the unaccredited district in an effort to retain current class size limits and staffing levels, but the school-choice advocacy group says there's room for more than the 216 the district has accepted.
Knost says the District will work with legal counsel to respond appropriately to the court action.
Illinois judge to decide next month on same sex marriage lawsuit
CHICAGO (AP) - A Cook County judge is hearing arguments on whether to dismiss a case challenging Illinois' ban on same-sex marriage.
The lawsuit being heard Tuesday before Circuit Judge Sophia Hall involves 25 couples who filed for marriage licenses in Cook County and were denied.
However, Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez has refused to defend the state's ban, which defines marriage as between a man and a woman. She says it violates the state constitution's equal protection clause. Attorney General Lisa Madigan has argued against the ban because the case brings the constitutionality of state laws into question.
Clerks from downstate were allowed to intervene and defend the ban.
Illinois approved civil unions in 2011, but attempts to legalize gay marriage have stalled.
Former MoDOT employee alleges age discrimination
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) - A former employee of the Missouri Department of Transportation is suing the agency, claiming age discrimination.
A lawsuit filed in Buchanan County says 64-year-old Elaine Justus worked at MoDOT's northwest district from 1997 until early 2013, largely in community relations.
The complaint says MoDOT developed a cost-cutting plan that included lists identifying employees by age and tenure. The lawsuit also says a northwest district manager created a similar list sorted by retirement eligibility and called it the "Buzzard List."
The St. Joseph News-Press reports the lawsuit says in 2011, a manager asked Justus her age. Justus says she was told a month later she wouldn't be reappointed. She says she was later demoted and was terminated in January.
MoDOT spokesman Bob Brendel says the department doesn't comment on pending litigation.
Former patients allege treatment center workers implanted false memories
BALLWIN, Mo. (AP) - The founder of the Castlewood Treatment Center for eating disorders is no longer leading the center in St. Louis County or its facility in California following lawsuits by former clients.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Mark Schwartz and his partner, Lori Galperin, stepped down from daily operations in December, though the change wasn't confirmed until Tuesday.
Castlewood director Nancy Albus is now CEO.
Four women have filed lawsuits since 2011 against Castlewood and Schwartz alleging they were hypnotized into believing they were members of satanic cults, and implanted with false memories of sexual abuse. The center has denied the claims. Schwartz is scheduled to give a deposition in July.
