Dodge Durango owners have reported 268 problems related to car stall (under the engine and engine cooling category).
The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. While driving approximately 20 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was able to restart after several attempts. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 74,000.
See all problems of the 2011 Dodge Durango.
Went out to my car to go to work and couldnt unlock door with key, noticed a red light on dash, tryed to start my car and completely dead. I took battery to auto zone they charged it and car started then stalled, did this twice and then stayed running. I drove it to work, came out of work started it and it started shook then cut off three times then started. Next day went out to go to work and would only start and shut off then smoke from the hood and a smell, I have made a phone call into tate Dodge they dont know anything about any on going problems. I have been down a car now for almost two weeks waiting to hear something.
This is the known issue with tipm failure, the car just stalled and lost all power and would not start back up. The engine would turn just fine when starting but would not start. Had it towed to my regular mechanic and he let me know today that it is the tipm which is currently unavailable with long wait times.
The 2011 Dodge Durango started having issues with failed starts. It would take multiple instances to get vehicle to start. Sometimes the the fuel pump would continue to pump even though engine was stopped. This causes a very smoky burning smell coming from exhaust and engine. Took car to dealership and they report the issue is a faulty tipm module. The part is on back order but vehicle is unsafe due to potential issues with stalling while running. Repairs estimated at $1200.
We attempted to start our vehicle, but the engine would not start. After several minutes vehicle started but stuttered, as if their was no fuel going to the engine. There had been no engine or service lights at the time. I researched the issue online and found that many Durango and cherokee owners have experienced similar issues, and the cause was the tipim. I took my vehicle to the dealership and they tested it, and found it was a problem with the tipim, which was failing to engage the fuel pump. Luckily our car was parked at the time the problem started. My wife generally drives this vehicle with my two small children. Our warranty ended at 36000 miles, so it was not covered. My options were to replace the tipim for 1200 dollars, or pay 428 dollars to have an external relay installed to bypass the faulty tipim (Chrysler star case #s1308000399). We chose to have the bypass installed. Vehicle is running fine at this point, but we are worried other issues (air bags deployed etc) will be a future problem.
The problem first manifested itself in an occasional difficulty starting the vehicle, typically after it sat overnight. Upon pressing the start button the starter would engage but the engine would not start. Pressing the start button again to stop the cranking and then re-pressing the button would get the engine to start. Weeks would sometimes go by without the problem recurring. Around the middle of July 2014 the problem started to get much worse, the car sometimes not starting multiple times during the day even after short stops. Around the end of July my wife had the problem happen to her, got the vehicle started, but as she backed out of a parking spot the vehicle stalled in the traffic lane. After that incident I took the vehicle to a Dodge dealership where they "cleared several fault codes" and sent me on my way. Three days later the vehicle once again wouldn't start, but the "reset and repress" tactic would work and the vehicle would run. Around August 7 2014 the problem got much worse. The vehicle took multiple attempts and 1-2 minutes to get running on several mornings, now though the vehicle would stall once started and before moving. Once running, in gear, and moving the car would run fine. Car failed to start then each morning Aug 15-17, taking 1-2 minutes each morning and multiple stalls. On afternoon of August 17, 5 minutes after making a dealer apt for next morning, I was driving at about 10 miles per hour and the engine died completely, power steering and brakes went out as well. Only after 3 minutes did finally using the remote start function on the key fob get the vehicle to start and run, this on a very busy roadway blocking a lane of traffic. Next day vehicle would not start at the dealer either, they diagnosed a bad tipm module and offered me a new module for $1200 or a "relay kit" for $587. New module cured problem for now.
The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that the vehicle would start intermittently and the stalled without warning. The vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 29,000.
On June 20, 2014, my Dodge Durango citadel stalled in traffic at 50 mph, almost causing a horrible accident. This was the 2nd time it had occurred. I coasted the vehicle to a side street.
When driving the car automatically stalls while in drive so I have to put it into neutral then back into drive and then it drives again. This has happened about 4 times I have taken the car back to the dealership and they seem to think and tell me they found nothing wrong. They say no warning lights were on. I explained to them that no warning lights appeared when this happens.
See all problems of the 2013 Dodge Durango.
Driving on the NJ turnpike the engine light suddenly came on and then the engine locked up. The truck is regularly maintained and has not had any accidents prior to this. The car is not even 7 full years of age yet. Called Chrysler and they refuse to help out due to age and miles. How does a car in great running condition just stall and die while driving?.
See all problems of the 2007 Dodge Durango.
While driving 65 mph on a highway, my Durango citadel stalled in traffic, almost creating a horrible accident.
I was driving on 65 hwy north in missouri and for no apparent reason the Durango stalled and I lost all power mechanical and electrical I could not steer or brake it was all I could do to maintain my lane I had just recently had an oil change and still had about 1000 more miles before I needed a new change it was a scary experience I could not restart the vehicle in neutral I finally got pulled over to the side of the road and got it restarted had to drive back home under 25 miles per hour or it would stall again it was very unsafe and endangered me my wife and my 3 children.
See all problems of the 2005 Dodge Durango.
The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving 35 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was restarted and operated as designed. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was not taken to dealer for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure and current mileage was 51,000.
Has occurred multiple times. Initially my 05 Durango would stall when pulling into parking spaces. Has progressed to normal driving conditions at around 35 mph while turning the engine will shut off. Occasionally the rpms will jump up and down too. Engine idles around 500rpm. When this first occurred there were no warning lights illuminated. I just don't feel like this is a safe vehicle at this point in time and based off of the other reports, Dodge should investigate and repair at no cost.
The contact owns a 2004 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while traveling at various speeds in the rain, the vehicle suddenly stalled. The vehicle was taken to a private mechanic where the failure could not be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000. Updated 4/28/cn.
See all problems of the 2004 Dodge Durango.
Vehicle stalled out on me during a heavy rain. I was going about 60mph on the highway, when vehicle started to shake. About 5 minutes after heavy rain, I lost all power and had to pull my vehicle off to the side of the road. I waited about 30 minutes and rain began to slow to a drizzle. Vehicle cranked right up after that. This is a very dangerous situation as I could have been rear ended on the highway. I have looked into this issue as I have had rough idles and stall outs when in automatic car washes. The issue seems to be with the cowl and a replacement cowl is available through the manufacturer at our own cost. If this issue has been addressed as a defect on an oem part then why should the consumer who has already paid for a vehicle be liable? I hope that this is more thoroughly investigated and it does not take the fatality of an unsuspecting consumer for issue to be addressed.
The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 mph, the vehicle stalled following the illumination of the no key warning message. The vehicle was restarted and proceeded normally. The contact indicated that the failure recurred on multiple occasions. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The failure mileage was 50,000.

The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled on several occasions while attempting to start the engine. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis where it was stated that the tpim needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 43,000.
My vehicle stalls with no notice. No rpm loss. No warning lights. Just stalls. This is going to cause a serious accident. The first time this happened I was making a left turn into my drive way. The next time while slowing friom 35 mph to make a left turn onto a side street. The last 2 times I have been in heavy traffic having it stall when merging into the turn lane. I have serached the internet and find numerous complaints of this very same issue. Not sure why Chrysler has not stepped up and addresssed this issue.
See all problems of the 2006 Dodge Durango.
Vehicle stalled at 60mph. Speed and tach went to zero. Vehicle wouldn't start. Would start after cooling down about 20 minutes. Would stall again. Same thing over and over again. Finally it stalled for good. Had it towed to Dodge dealer. Dealer said the problem was the pcm. Paid $2000 to have pcm installed with a new ignition coil. It lasted about 4 hours and 200 miles and it stalled again. Samething over again. Had it towed to another Dodge dealer paid an additional $260 had another ignition coil installed and it still doesn't run right. The dash warning lights come on intermittantly, the security system engages for no reason and continues to stall. Dodge can't seem to find the cause of the problem, can't fix the problem, or simply doesn't care. My vehicle currently won't start and is grounded. All this after almost $2500 repairs from Dodge that didn't fix the problem. I have all the repair invoices from the dealers.
See all problems of the 1999 Dodge Durango.
The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Durango. While driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle stalled. There were no warning indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but was not diagnosed nor repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.
Engine hydrolocked due to excessive water pouring from the windshield onto the engine causing water to penetrate the cylinders. Vehicle would stall when driving in the rain or in a carwash. Well maintained and oil changed frequently. Now vehicle is worthless due to Dodge design flaw or faulty parts.
Just got my Durango on 1-14-2013 coming home and the engine light came on and it just cut off coming down a busy highway when it cut off there is no power stalls hard to get off the road the cars behind me don't know what gone on just in front of them so they don't know to stop. When I got this Durango no one told me about this . .
The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while activating the turn signals, the hazard lights would activate instead. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent. The contact also mentioned that on multiple occasions while driving at various speeds, the vehicle would suddenly stall. In addition, while attempting to stop the vehicle by depressing the brake pedal, the brakes had malfunctioned increasing the stopping distant needed to stop the vehicle. Also, when the vehicle was in park, the vehicle would roll away. The dealer repaired the brakes but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 80,000.

It's A Mystery to Me
I put my resume on Monster, just because, you know, someone may contact me about a writing job. Or a museum job.
I've been getting emails asking me to sign up as a Mystery Shopper.
Because over twenty-five years of writing experience and a pending certificate in Art Museum and Gallery Studies qualifies me to go shopping. Which I hate. I mean dislike. (My husband tells me not to hate.)
While I do enjoy thrifting and antiquing, I do not like most other types of shopping, particularly the department store variety. I can, however, be mysterious at times, but that generally involves lack of sleep, a cold gifted to me by my grandson and his preschool germs, and half the adult dosage of Nyquil, which is all I can tolerate. Thus, the mystery becomes what it is, exactly, I'm trying to convey to the people who live here. My children mock my inability to complete a sentence, which doesn't even require the foggy trinity of insomnia, a virus and medication. I often finish a thought in my head instead of aloud, while only under the influence of myself. It drives everyone I know crazy.
Anyway, here's one of the emails in its entirety, except for the name of the guy who sent it to me, even though it may be a pseudonym for Automatic Email Generator. I left in the company's name, because I suspect they send out a million of these emails to everyone who has a resume on Monster, from freelance writers to nuclear physicists, so it's not as if I'm defaming anyone. (Note that their company name is a registered trademark. That's legitimacy right there, I tell you.)

RV Having Fun Yet?
Just got the news that another of my editors is leaving my newspaper.
I'm sad. Again.
I blame the Internet. Curse you, Internet!
See, what happens is people want their news RIGHT NOW, so they go online and read a jumble of inaccuracies that end up being corrected in about the same time as it takes to get tomorrow's newspaper.
I know, right? But that's how it goes.
My duties as a freelancer are allegedly not going to be affected, but I'm thinking my opinion column may be coming to an end. No one has actually said this to me. Still, I'm a big girl and am completely prepared for it when it happens. Because it likely will. I mean, why buy the stringer when you can get the wire story for free?
It is not a secret that I have been considering a post-midlife career change. You already know I'm working toward a certificate in Art Museum and Gallery Studies. And that my final project in the program is a feasibility study about the creation of a brick-and-mortar vintage purse and fashion museum.
Because I tend to get over-involved with non-tangibles in order to change them into real things so I can compulsively touch them with my ridiculously tiny hands, here's how that project has evolved:
Check it out and let me know if you think this is frying-pan-into-the-fire or totally awesome. Either way, I'm still gonna do it.
Because I can't just sit here and wait for more "workforce reductions." I simply don't have the energy to do air quotes anymore.
I'm sad. Again.
I blame the Internet. Curse you, Internet!

Reduction Junction What's Your Function?
There was another round of layoffs at my newspaper. And by layoffs, I mean "a reduction in workforce."
21 people were workforce reduced, including one of the editors I worked with. I mean with whom I worked. Whatever. Screw it. Who cares about grammar?
OK, I do. But not right now.
I'm not a real journalist anyway. That is, I know that many newspaper staff writers see freelancers as wannabes, unless the freelancer was once a staffer. That's fine. I don't have the college degree or the beat-the-streets-get-shot-at-and-live-through-it background that most real journalists do. Often, when I interview someone for an article (or, more often, an advertorial) and they want to email photos, I tell them to send them directly to the editor because "I'm just a freelancer who works outside the main office."
"Just" being the operative word. "Outside the main office" meaning part-time, at the cluttered desk in my home office, with no makeup on and my dog at my feet. Not exactly Lois Lane, Girl Reporter. Even though I have the wardrobe.
Vintage Pendleton suit. Fake bun. Haven't had that much real hair since the '80s.
My lack of inner sanctum/newsroom experience does not mean I don't sympathize with those who've lost their jobs. It is particularly distressing to know that at least one person who was laid off had been there 25 years. He has good skills and some connections, so my hope is that he finds another job soon.
But the reality is that if you look at writing jobs now, most organizations aren't looking for seasoned professionals to whom (good grammar, right?) they have to pay a living wage. Nope. I've seen ads for "writing interns," which means recent college grads who live with their parents and will take any crappy job that pays their car insurance.
I'm sorry this isn't one of my wittier posts. I'm just not feeling it today. Please forgive me. To make it up to you, here's a key chain slogan I wrote and sold (for $75, I think) to a social expression company about fifteen years ago, when I used to be fun.
"Just" being the operative word.

Have Some Thinks Before You Call
I have complained way too many times about people not calling me back. For this I apologize.
But I'm once again sharing this cartoon thingy. (IT'S NOT A MEME, because "meme" means something else, says My Daughter Who Has A Bachelor's Degree in English. What do I know? I'm just a little ol' freelance writer with a degree in Bullwinkle Studies from Whatsamatta U.)
Here's when you don't have to call me:
Three or more days after I have spoken to you, because it's highly likely I have finished the article and turned it in already and have moved on to the next article or two or six. I am sorry if you forgot to tell me something during our interview, but I won't be able to add it because it is usually too late. Also, I will generally call you within a day of our interview if I feel the article is missing something or if I need to do any fact checking.
Oh, yeah, and don't call me after 5:00 p.m., because even though I work at home, I would prefer you not call me in the evening (or on weekends)—unless we have a prearranged time for a return call—because I am doing family stuff, like making dinner and giving the grandkid a bath and putting him to bed and reading him "Oh, The Thinks You Can Think."
It's a very good book. I highly recommend it.

Blogging for Dollars
For those of you who are too young to remember "Bowling for Dollars," it was a TV show I watched when I was a wee lass. I believe the host was the inimitable Chick Hearn. There's also a "Dialing for Dollars," which I only knew about from this song.
I'm a little depressed right now. It probably doesn't help to listen to Janis. But, oh, that voice. Those bracelets.
I'm in my last quarter of CSU, East Bay's art museum and gallery studies certification program and am now doing a feasibility study. Meaning, I'm trying to figure out if it's feasible to open a vintage purse and fashion museum in Southern California. Part of this study involves creating a business plan, so I hit up an organization that offers start-ups free advice from retired execs.
Yesterday, I put on my 1940s mustard-colored silk blouse and a gray pencil skirt that looked better about ten pounds ago and some uncomfortable-yet-fabulous heels and met these guys at the local chamber of commerce.
Here are the heels.
Fabulous, am I right?
The execs talked to me about the pros and mostly cons of opening a museum, which was very good advice and which I appreciated. It was also very discouraging. I'm not going to get into that part, because I still have to write my business plan, no matter how discouraged I am. But this is not the point.

I'm not going to get into that part, because I still have to write my business plan, no matter how discouraged I am. But this is not the point.
Because this is my writing blog, the point of this post has to do with writing. When the two retired execs—gentlemen I liked very much—found out that I am a professional freelance writer, they encouraged me to stick with it. One of them said I can make good money blogging. Which is probably true. For some people. Not me. (Note: I do make a little money on Google ads, mostly on my vintage purse sites, Vintage Purse a Day and The Vintage Purse Gallery. I am not trying to sound ungrateful. I am, in fact, very thankful for those clicks. It's just that it's not make-a-living income.*)
He was quite adamant about the blogging, but also mentioned ghostwriting. Also not for me. I know these things from over two decades of experience selling my writing. The other gentleman felt I should expand my writing business, even though I explained that I've written everything—from articles to button slogans to press releases to novels to... everything.

I want to do something different. I want to take my vintage fashion hobby and turn it into a business. Which I now believe needs to occur on a much smaller scale than I envisioned. Which is also not the point.
The point is that I know all about being a writer and these guys don't. They don't know that it's extremely competitive and it's very hard to break into other aspects of writing because even an established writer doesn't get consideration. For instance, I've registered on several different freelance sites and bid on jobs, only to see some grad student (note: nothing against grad students) charging a lot less—or worse, just doing it for a byline—get the job.
As for blogging, that's changed so much in the last ten years that to make money at it you have to pretty much have a *full-fledged commerce site—not just a simple blog.
But what do I know? I'm just a writer. With fabulous-yet-uncomfortable shoes. Which is kind of an analogy for where I'm at right now. I wonder if Janis had a song about that.

The Price of History
I've been doing my regular freelance newspaper work, plus newsletter and magazine writing gigs as they come up. Occasionally, I'll get people asking me when I'm going to write the next book, but that's not on the horizon. Not the immediate horizon, anyway.
My huge, time-consuming project lately has been working on the unpaid* (more about that below) internship portion of the CSU, East Bay certificate program in Art Museum and Gallery Studies.
This quarter, I took notes from videos and films that were archived at the Strathearn Historical Park & Museum in Simi Valley, where I live.
Thanks to the intrepid (also very cool and awesome) park coordinator who applied for and received a grant, a number of films and videos were digitized and put on an external hard drive. Most of the videos, which started out in 1980s VHS format, were oral histories from members of pioneer families. These "old-timers" shared their earliest memories of life in Simi Valley, from picking apricots to riding to school in a surrey to performing in amateur operettas at the community center to plowing through an angry farmer's haystacks in a Ford Model A to... you get the idea.
I took the drive home, plugged it into my laptop and watched all the films and videos, while taking notes in MS Word on my desktop. Some of these films were three hours, and took me all day to look at, mostly due to sound issues (the videos' and my failing hearing—thank you, 1970s punk rock concerts). I'd have to start and stop and restart and stop and listen carefully, over and over. I wrote down what was on the tapes—usually general things, but some transcription, including what I felt were useable quotes, should the museum ever decide to do a compilation of the area's history in a modern video.
Here's the deal: I live in a very stereotypical Southern California suburb. Seriously. We now have three Walmarts and a population of about 127,000. I moved here in 1988 when there were no Walmarts and fewer than 100,000 people and I was pregnant with my first child. Yeah, it was different then, but it's an understatement to say Simi Valley was a lot different a century ago, when there were mostly farms and ranches in the area and no tract houses or strip malls. I heard one early resident say there were 5,000 people living in Simi Valley when she was here in the 1920s.
So, what did I get out of this?
An enormous education about Simi Valley history.
A huge curiosity about my surroundings. For instance, my house is where Patterson Ranch used to be. I wonder if the avocado tree in my back yard and the walnut tree in my neighbors' were part of that ranch.
An understanding as to why the folks who grew up here in the 1910s and '20s were so unhappy (on those VHS tapes) about the city's "progress" in the 1980s.
A profound sadness. Yeah, it's the circle of life and all, but most of the people on the tapes are gone and that makes me sad. I can't help it.
Gratitude. I'm happy these tapes were made and you can figure out why. I don't have to tell you.
This was the best *unpaid job I ever had because it paid so very well.

Getting the Point
At the end of 2008, I made it a goal to send out a query, submit an article, come up with greeting card ideas, or enter a writing contest every day of 2009. I wrote a journal documenting this fiasco, which I think is a fair representation of the life of a real working freelance writer.
I tried to sell my experiences as a book. This endeavor didn't pan out. Naturally. Because these things are either ironic or expected, and occasionally both.
I've been periodically sharing these stories in this blog and decided it's time for another tiny tale from that year of writing dangerously.
A movie came out in 2009. It was a romantic film/chick flick/date movie about a 19th century poet. Exactly the type of movie I would never, ever go see. Or buy. Or watch by accident. (For the record, my all time favorite movie is Die Hard. The first one. The ONLY one.)
A contest was run to publicize the movie about the poet (who was not played by Bruce Willis). You could enter via mail or Twitter. As part of my goal of sending out something writing-related every day, I tweeted my "love letter." As of today, four-and-a-half years later, I couldn't find the winners' list, but this tweet still exists: https://twitter.com/KeatsTweets/status/6764927037
I was one of the winners. It took me about thirty seconds to write the love letter and a few more to tweet it.
I won a $400 Mont Blanc fountain pen. It looks like this.
Not mine. I got this pic off someone's unsold eBay auction.
I kind of wish they'd sent me the four hundred bucks instead of the pen, so I could say I make $48,000 an hour.
I tried selling the pen to one of those We Buy Gold and Fountain Pens places, but the young woman who worked there had no idea what it was and had to call her boss, who did know what it was, which I figured out because she got very weird during their conversation. Like, when you're listening to one side of a phone call and the person knows you're listening and says, "mmmm hmmmm" a lot so they don't give anything away.
Also, she was trying to get the pen to work (it didn't have any ink in it) by pressing the tip very hard on her desk blotter, which made me cringe.
I think they offered me $50. Or maybe it was $100. I don't remember. I only remember it wasn't $400. So I left.
The pen sat on a shelf in my office for four years.
The pen sat on a shelf in my office for four years.
And now for the happy ending to this YAY I WON A WRITING CONTEST FOR DOING VIRTUALLY NOTHING BUT I DIDN'T GET ANYTHING OF VALUE WHICH IS MY DESTINY story: My daughter learned to love schmancy fountain pens while in college and studying abroad and being all cultured 'n' stuff 'n' junk.
She graduated from college last June and I gave her the fountain pen, which I think she likes even better than her graduation gift, which is a 1930s vanity with mirror. (She knows all about schmancy makeup, too. I get my cosmetics from CVS.)
This ending makes me even happier than winning the contest. How's that for unexpected?

Emotions connected to memories can be rewritten, making bad events in the past seem better and good things appear worse, scientists from Japan and the United States have found.
The discovery of the mechanism behind the process helps to explain the power of current psychotherapeutic treatments for mental illnesses such as depression or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), they said, and could offer new avenues for psychiatric help.
"These findings validate the success of current psychotherapy, by revealing its underlying mechanism," research leader Susumu Tonegawa told AFP in Tokyo.
The team, formed from a collaboration between Japan's RIKEN institute and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US, used optogenetics -- a new brain-control technology which utilises light -- to better understand what happens when we reminisce.
They found that warm feelings or intense fear triggered by the interaction between the hippocampus -- the brain's diary room -- and the amygdala -- the place believed to encode positivity or negativity -- are more flexible than previously thought.
"It depends on how strongly the (good or bad aspect) dominates... there is competition between the two circuits' connection strengths," Tonegawa said.
The researchers injected two groups of male mice with light-sensitive algae protein.
This allowed them to identify the formation of a new memory as it was happening and then use pulses of light to reactivate it when they wanted to.
One group of rodents were allowed to play with female mice, creating a positive memory. The other group were given a small but unpleasant electric shock through the floor.
Researchers then artificially reactivated the memory using the light pulses -- effectively making the mice remember what had happened to them.
While the mice were "remembering" their event, they were given the opposite experience -- the mice with the nice memory got a shock, while those with the painful memory were introduced to females.
Tonegawa said his team had discovered that the emotion of the new experience overpowered the original emotion, rewriting how the mice felt about it.
"We did a test in the original chamber and the original fear memory was gone," he said.
However, the over-writing of a memory was only possible by manipulating the hippocampus, which is sensitive to context. The same result could not be achieved by manipulating the amygdala.
Tonegawa said the connection between the contextual memory in the hippocampus and the "good" or "bad" emotions in the amygdala became stronger or weaker depending on what was experienced.
The researchers hope their findings might open up new possibilities for treatment of mood-affecting disorders such as depression, or PTSD, a condition found in people such as soldiers who have undergone life-threatening or particularly horrific events.
"In the future, I would like to think that with new technology we will be able to wirelessly control neurons in the brain, without intrusive tools like electrodes," said Tonegawa, who won the Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine in 1987.
"We could possibly augment good memories over bad ones," he said.
The research paper is published in Nature.
In a commentary, also carried by Nature, cognitive researchers Tomonori Takeuchi and Richard Morris at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland said the study broke new ground in exploring the mechanisms of memory, although optogenetics had limitations as a tool for doing this.
"Molecular engineering is nonetheless shedding light on our understanding of the underlying physiological networks of memory," they wrote.

A five run outburst by the Louisville Bats, helped by two Indianapolis errors, propelled the Bats to a 5-4 win over the Indians Saturday night at Louisville Slugger Field.
Going into the fifth inning, the Bats were being no hit by Indians starter Jeff Karstens, who is on rehab from the Pittsburgh Pirates. With one out in the fifth, Danny Dorn broke through with the Bats' first hit of the afternoon. Dioner Navarro was then hit by a pitch. Felix Perez followed with an RBI single scoring Dorn to tie the game at 1-1. Miguel Rojas then grounded into what looked to be an inning-ending double play, but a throwing error by Karstens allowed Perez to reach third and Navarro to score, pushing the Bats to the lead.
Karstens then tossed a wild pitch allowing Perez to score, making it 3-1. After walking Bats pitcher Sean Gallagher, Karstens was lifted for Rick VanderHurk. The first batter VanderHurk faced, Joey Gathright, laced an RBI single to right field scoring Rojas. Gallagher scored when Gathright stole second and Brian Friday missed the catch, allowing the ball to roll into center field.
Going into the inning, the Bats had scored just two runs in their previous 45 innings and were 0-for-29 with runners in scoring position in their previous three games.
The Bats (16-34) won for just the sixth time when their opponents score first. Indy got on the board first in the fourth on an RBI groundout by Friday. Indy got a solo homer from Jeff Clement to trim the margin to 5-2 in the sixth.
Those were all the runs the Indians got off of Gallagher, who turned in the Bats' 22nd quality start of the year. Gallagher, who pitched a perfect seventh inning, gave up the two runs on just five hits while walking two and striking out five. Travis Webb pitched a perfect eighth inning to pick up his fifth hold of the season.
Jordan Smith closed it out for the Bats and picked up his fourth save of the year but not without some drama. After an RBI triple from Brandon Boggs, the tying run was at the plate with one out. Smith got Friday to groundout and pinch hitter Jake Fox to pop out to end the game and Louisville's four game losing streak.
The two teams conclude their four game split series Sunday. Chad Reineke (1-3, 4.91 ERA) is set to take the hill for the Bats opposed by Daniel Cabrera (1-1, 3.14 ERA). First pitch is set for 6:05 p.m.

1/6 Photos of Mohammed's Tagine Kefta
Prep Time:
Cook Time:

Morocco is one of my favourite countries and after several trips there we now have good friends in the southern city of Zagora. It was there that I first learned how to make a tagine kefta, or in other words a Moroccan version of a meatball stew. Now I know there are almost as many versions of a tagine kefta as there are chefs. This one was taught to me by Mohammed in his kitchen in Zagora. For the oil, he used mostly olive oil but with a couple spoonfuls of vegetable oil mixed in. Also, the spices in Morocco are very fresh. Buy the best you can and add more if needed.

"…this is an extraordinary debut album that's going to have a hard time staying regional."
-Wildy's World
"The Jekylls reach back to an era of 60s pop that is undeniably made for long drives with the top down."
-Chris K., Colorado Sound
"All surfy guitars and sassy harmonies, the band rocks through the record's 10 tunes with the carefree swagger of musicians who have nothing to prove and who are pursuing this particular lark for the fun and love of it."
-Eryc Eyl, Denver Post
"… we'll do our best to refrain from referring to [ The Jekylls] as a 'supergroup' (aw, crap — we just did!). Judging from the lineup …
there's about zero chance we'll be disappointed."
-Dave Herrera, Westword
What happens if you mix two Hollyfelds, two Railbenders and a Sunday Girl?
You get The Jekylls, a 60's style pop group from Denver.

The Jekylls have opened for national acts including Los Straitjackets, Allison Krauss, JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound, and Clairy Browne and the Bangin' Rackettes. They've also shared bills with illustrious Colorado acts like the Railbenders, The Hollyfelds, Mama Lenny and The Remedy, New Ben Franklins, Sunday Girl, The Patti Fiasco, and many other fabulous bands.
The Jekylls released their debut full-length album The Sweet Factory

There are dozens, dare I say hundreds, of film projects that consistently get updates but never actually make steps towards production (I'm looking at you Ghostbusters 3 and the Arrested Development movie). We have updates on two of the most talked about tonight, but will they finally make the turn towards completion (a la The Hobbit), or continue in purgatory? Signs point to the latter, but let's dive in.
First up is Joe Johnston's Jurassic Park 4. Earlier this summer, Steven Spielberg was reportedly exploring possibilities for the film less than a month after Sam Neill said the franchise was done. While on the press tour for Captain America: The First Avenger, Johnston spoke to Screen Rant and said the following:
"We are in discussions about 'Jurassic Park 4.' The most important thing I can tell you is that it starts a new trilogy that will go off in a different direction — a completely different direction that is very exciting, and different from anything we've seen. It starts with the history of the first trilogy, but it spins it off in a completely different direction. That's all I can tell you."
That sounds almost verbatim from what the director previously said, but with the trilogy coming to Blu-ray this fall and Spielberg's supposed talk, could he actually be telling the truth this time? We'll have to wait and see. As for "different from anything we've seen," I don't know what to think. We've seen what happens when dinos exit the island and come to America, could they be headed to space?
In the meantime, The Playlist spoke with Ruben Fleischer while on the press tour for his upcoming comedy 30 Minutes or Less and they, of course, had to bring up Zombieland 2, the oft-rumored successor to his hit 2009 film.. We've heard opinions from just about everyone involved, but here is what Fleischer had to say:
"The thing is that we've all said is the only reason to do it is if it's better than the original and i don't think anyone wants to do it, just to do it," he told us today. "And certainly no one is going to do it just for the money— it's not like any of us could get rich off it anyway so I think, without trying to sound arrogant, the bar is super high. And we've been holding it to that."
He also mentioned that Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick's script is done and they "wrote something and it was really great." He wrapped up saying, "we all are excited of the prospect of making the movie, but I guess we all haven't found the perfect story to tell yet."
I thought that Zombieland stood fine on its own, and taking into consideration where Fleischer is headed I sincerely don't see this one happening after his upcoming Gangster Squad. If I directed a crime film starring Sean Penn, Ryan Gosling, and Josh Brolin, I couldn't see myself headed back to a sequel to a zombie film. But, the ball is in Fleischer's court and we'll provide updates as they come.
Do you see either one of these projects actually getting made? Which one are you more interested in?

2008 Heitz Cellar Zinfandel Ink Grade Vineyard

Community Tasting Notes 6
wbduval Likes this wine: (89 points)
January 6, 2014 - A bit tight at first, but opened up after some air. Getting to the end on this one - would suggest drinking this year.

August 1, 2013 - Not bad, but I don't see why this is that great for the price.
austinbeeman Likes this wine: (90 points)
May 16, 2013 - Nice flavors of chocolate, bramble, and cherry, but with enough acid to keep the wine from being flabby.
$27.99 OH retail
tarheel17 Likes this wine:
May 1, 2013 - very much enjoyed, as this is my style of zin. Not heavy or over-oaked or headily alcoholic - just pure, sweet fruit with touch of bramble. not as complex as geyserville, but with similar weight and presentation.
neurovino Likes this wine: (91 points)
February 8, 2013 - This is a lighter Zinfandel, a little more typical of what used to be produced more widely in California 15+ years ago, and definitely more characteristic of those produced in northern California, rather than the beasts from places like Paso Robles or high heat areas of central California. This wine has a lighter color, and brighter fruit, and isn't heavy handed with the alcohol. The fruit and acidity are balanced nicely so that they work with food without over powering it. More like a Carlisle (but generally not as good) than a Turley. Very nice wine for many occasions.

Looking Back with Aurore Eaton: A Civil War tragedy - Elinus Morrison of Manchester
During the dramatic raid, one unfortunate civilian found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. This was Elinus J. Morrison of Manchester, New Hampshire, who was the only person killed during the incident. He was shot by a Confederate soldier, and died two days later, on October 21, 1864. Elinus is buried in the Morrison family plot at the Valley Cemetery in Manchester. In the center of the plot is a white marble obelisk that bears his name and the name of several close family members.

Kenny will play the Jupiter Bar & Grille near the campus of the University of Alabama. "They're always absolutely insane at the Jupiter Bar & Grille," says Kenny. "They set the bar pretty high. They really get us digging into our memory banks for songs." From Tuscaloosa, the tour swings over to Tallahassee, Fla., on Feb. 27, then to the University of Florida campus in Gainesville the following day. "Out here, with all these kids anything can, and sometimes does, happen!" Kenny says.

Mequon — Thinking of raising a baboon? Or maybe an ostrich? Well, think again.
Those animals, alongside a list of other wild critters, were banned Tuesday by the Common Council, which delivered a unanimous vote to institute a stepped-up exotic pet ordinance in light of a recent incident with a domesticated African wild cat.
In June and July, Mequon police responded to calls of a "cheetah" prowling in the area near Wauwatosa and Donges Bay roads. The animal was actually an escaped domesticated serval, a spotted African wild cat which can weigh between 25-40 pounds. The serval both puzzled and frightened neighbors for days before it was struck dead on a nearby road by a passing driver.
Servals are included in a lengthy list of wild animals banned by the new ordinance, which will go into effect this week when signed by Mayor Dan Abendroth.
However, if city residents already have a pet on the list, which includes snapping turtles, pot-bellied pigs and crocodiles, they have 90 days to register the animal. According to the ordinance, owners have to provide paperwork to prove they have complied with any state and federal regulations on ownership or importation, and must provide clean and secure housing for their pets.
"We don't want to create any homeless pets from people who legally have them here (already)," Alderman Andrew Nerbun said. "We didn't want to, if someone does have a pet like this, being forced to kick them to the curb."
The ordinance includes exemptions for animals under the care of veterinarians, agricultural fairs, 4-H shows or projects, animal shows, carnivals and circuses, public or private schools, pet shops and zoos.

New Republican Demands Getting In The Way
Republicans are demanding that Chained CPI be part of any temporary solution. This would be a reduction in Social Security benefits, as Greg Sargent explains:
At the same time, Republicans are not willing to raise the debt ceiling. They want to retain the leverage the debt ceiling gives them when the longer term "fiscal cliff" talks resume next year.
And so the current Republican demand, as I understand it, is that Dems must agree to Social Security cuts and a higher income threshold for the lower tax rates (either $400,000 or $500,000, depending on the source), in exchange for an extension of middle class tax cuts (which Republicans also want) and an extension of unemployment benefits. If Dems don't give up those things, while allowing Republicans to retain their debt ceiling leverage, taxes go up on everybody and unemployment benefits expire for over two million Americans.
Why would Democrats agree to Social Security cuts and lower tax rates on many wealthy households even as Republicans hold on to their leverage to extract still more in spending cuts later? No wonder a Dem aide described this as a "serious setback."

No, ARM Didn't Open-Source Their Full Mali Linux Driver
Published on 02 May 2014 11:12 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
6 Comments
A few Phoronix readers have written in with excitement thinking in recent weeks - including this morning - that ARM open-sourced their Linux/Android graphics driver... But in reality, nothing has changed.
A few links have been sent in to our news tip box with
this page
, which reads, "Open Source Mali-200/300/400/450 GPU Kernel Device Drivers." While the page mentions open-source drivers, it's only about the kernel portion of the driver and it's always been that way with ARM -- and most other ARM-based graphics vendors. The kernel portion is open, the user-space components are closed. Without an open user-space, having an open kernel driver is only of limited use, and will not be accepted into the upstream Linux kernel.
ARM makes available the kernel driver for some easier porting to different kernel releases, but it doesn't really allow users much. It's the user-space binary blob that's feeding the kernel driver all of its magic when running OpenGL ES, etc. The
Lima driver
that's been in the works for a few years by Luc Verhaegen is what's being attempted as a reverse-engineered user-space driver for Mali to replace this blob.
Qualcomm was in a similar boat when
started for open-source Adreno support where the Freedreno Gallium3D driver was written against the open Qualcomm kernel blob interfaces and over time is when Rob Clark of Freedreno also ended up writing his own proper DRM driver (called "MSM") that's since been mainlined.
So long story short, that ARM Mali Developer Center page isn't new, and their open kernel driver isn't worth too much without an open user-space driver. The latest Mali 400/450 driver release is even from last November.
