Toyota Highlander Driving Vibration
can you provide more details?
what speed
forward or reverse
is it just a single 'thump" or a shudder?
I have a AWD LTD, and I notice if I shift from reverse to forward while the car is still rolling backwards at 1 mph, it does have a very slight shudder.
Trying to diagnose a problem over the internet is really tricky.
Also, from what you are describing, it seems that when you try to accelerate, the tendency is to down shift, but if you back of the accelerator before the transmission has had time to downshift, of course theres going to be a situation as to which gear it wants to be in.
It seems to happen in forward going 35mph or above. Also, I don't do any manual shifting. It's definitely a shudder, not a thump. I'll accelerate and then coast for a few seconds before it occurs. Of course this doesn't always happen, which makes the issue hard to pinpoint. I plan of taking it into the dealer, but was hoping someone else knew what this might be so that I could point them in a better direction. Thanks again.

I just bought a 2008 Sport trim ( with leather and 3rd seat) a month ago and have the same problem. Vehicle vibrates ( fine vibration but annoying enough to notice/ it wasn't there when i first brought it home) while driving at sporadic times. Usually it is when accelerating but most often at 50 mph +. . It ALSO started vibrating ( sporadically) on START UP in the mornings, (after a week of ownership). This vibration is more pronounced than the one during movement-- it is a dull humming vibration as soon as you turn the key. I don't even put my foot on the accelerator.
I am trying to decide whether or not to take it in to our dealer. I am very dissapointed with that prospect because I have heard so many bad things about Toyota's DECLINE in the service world. I spoke to my car rep. about it before I purchased and he said that they are making major changes and I should not have any problems with service- Toyota is working fast to rectify the issue because they have been taking huge losses with that issue- customers have gone to Honda. I hope he is not wrong. I did not think I'd have these problems so early.
What makes it hard to assess is that it is sporadic. It does not do this every morning.
Another issue that I am starting to notice ...The ride used to be quiet but there are times when it sounds like there someone left the back window down.
Has anyone noticed 2-3 second acceleration lag when accelerating? It just started doing this.
yorf Posts: 7We have only had our 08 Limited for a couple of weeks, but I too noticed a vibration coming through the steering wheel. Occurred around 100 kph and above to about 120 kph. Once again vibration may be not the most accurate way of describing the condition. More of a lower pulsating kind of high frequency shudder. I had the vehicle into the shop for another issue and informed them about the shudder. They reported back that a tire was slightly out of balance. They corrected the balancing issue and rotated the tires. I really don't think rotating the tires should have been necessary. They may have done that to make sure the problem front tire was moved back temporarily. Can't wait to it's rotated up front again. I won't be surprise if the shudder comes back. Just out of curiosity, what tires do you have on your Sport? I have the Toyo "Open Country" A20s and I don't think they are going to last very long.
Also noticed that on cooler mornings, as reported by other owners, the vehicle runs surprisingly rough when it is first started.
I have not noticed any acceleration lag. I did notice it on the previous incarnation of Highlander. In 2005 I test drove a Highlander and the lag was very noticeable. For that reason, I did not get a Highlander. Instead went to a Pacifica. So far no acceleration lag in the 08 Highlander but there are some other handling issues that are disappointing compared to the Pacifica.
shk_1 Posts: 1I bought a 2009 this weekend. I have been experiencing the pulsations/vibrations at ~45-50 MPH. Very similar to what has been described here - cannot reproduce, happens when I am cruising and stop if I accelerate of decelerate.
While picking the car, the dealer kept telling me not to use cruise control for the first 500 miles - not sure if this is related. Will check with the dealer today.
We have not been using the cruise control. We plan to take ours back to the shop tomorrow for the second time. It appears this is pretty common for highlanders but it is too bad they cannot pinoint the cause. I have done some research and found that it can be caused by a Mass Air? sensor or water in the transmission.
fernan Posts: 1I just bought a 2009 HL. The car also does what everybody is describing here. Dealership is clueless. It seems that only people with brand new vehicles are describing this problem. I wonder if it goes away as the vehicle breaks in. Ours is not as bad as when whe bought it (245 miles now). It seems like the transmission likes to stay in one gear too high.
I bought a new Highlander Limited with great expectations. The test drive was superb. After bringing home the vehicle, a feeble yet annoying vibration was felt and I brushed it aside as a figment of my imagination. But after a few days the vibrations are quite perceptible. I promptly took it to the dealer who checked the vehicle. The service adviser also told me he compared a similar highlander on the same roads and said they both drive the same. I drove the vehicle and it felt fine. This is happening sporadically and am not able to reproduce it at the dealer.
The vehicle now has about 400 miles and the problem is still there - it occurs intermittently. Is this bad choice, should i have finalized a CX9 / Murano?
Is anyone else having this kind of a problem?
I could not figure out the cause of the vibration on my 2009. It just stopped vibrating when I reached apx 500 miles. Some think it may have just been the transmission learning my driving habits or it had a breaking in period. I haven't had any issues since and have had it since Sept 2009. There is still a little worry in the back of my mind that it could happen again and possibly cause problems. Let me know if you find out anything on it.
Thank you ndl2napa and ccacta for your response.
The weather is getting cold here in Chicago and I thought it could be a reason. But as ccacta said, the vibrations have come down to a bare minimum as I crossed 500 miles. They gradually tapered off and are almost non-existent now. Hopefully this will not repeat.
Otherwise, I think the vehicle is good value for the money. Love the JBL sound system...
I recently bought 2012 Highlander SE. I have 300 miles; I noticed that after starting car, when I push brake paddle to put it in the drive, I hear small rattle kind of noise coming from under the hood. It goes away when start driving but if I keep pressing brake paddle and car is in the P gear then it keeps producing rattle noise for minute or two and then it goes away. I read manual and it says noise due to ABS, VSC, TRAC, EBD etc. I hope that is the case.
It is annoying to hear this in new 36K vehicle. Does anybody else have this experience?
I hope your symptom is because of what is described in the manual and goes away. I can understand how bad it feels in a brand new vehicle.
In my case - around 500 miles the car became super smooth - but the vibrations / grinding feel came back - more severe now. This roughness can be felt when the vehicle is parked or in motion. Unfortunately, I was not able to replicate the problem at the dealership - only a slight vibration was felt and the technician said it was normal and there is nothing that can be done. The complaint was documented.
I noticed that there is humming / vibrations even with the engine off - in the accessory mode! I plan to take it to a different dealership and see if they can diagnose the problem.
tototoo Posts: 1My 2005 which I owned without problems for 3 years has just started this vibration which I feel through the steering wheel. It's quite strong with a noise that sounds like a helicopter rotor. when I pull over and turn the wheel both ways all the way and start up again it stops. It does it sporadically at different times of day, at 25 mph up to 60 mph, all weather. We've had it to the dealer 3 times, the last time we left it for 2 days and they never felt it and have no idea what it is. At this point, I'm afraid to drive it and cannot sell it. Can anyone help?
roadrunner70 Posts: 241could be rotor run out. Or, a bad tire? a cord may have snapped in the tire. also, there might be something loose in the front suspension.
since it goes away when you turn the wheel all the way to the right and left, has anyone considered that the steering rack is going bad, or that the power steering pump is broken? hope that helps. RR70

I have a 2005 HL 40cyl that is not garaged. I recently hit the 141,00 mark and needed a complete brake job (new rotors, pads, caliers, hoses, etc. on all 4s). Now I am hearing/sensing the vibration that is being mentioned here. I've been told that the struts need to be replaced but was wondering if the strut wear is related to the noise, or if the vibration/noise is related to the new (ultra expensive brakes).

To all Highlander Owners there is a very simple and cheap fix to this issue... my car hasn't been this smooth since I bought it!! I was always complaining about engine noise, vibration, on and off and sometimes and then not other times.... here's the answer!! There is a graphite like gasket in the exhaust that wears out. You buy the gasket and the spring bolts from Amazon for $20 and you'll find that the gasket is gone and the vibration which will just get worse is due to the two pipes rubbing against each other. http://www.carid.com/2008-toyota-highlander-exhaust-parts/walker-exhaust-gasket-18144288.html, the bolt is part 36454

United Nations INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY ~ MARCH 8
Yogi Bhajan spent much of his time and energy teaching classes for women. His saw the great need for women to understand their true identity. He taught women to claim their birthright—to live as 'eagles'—not as 'chicks.' Summer after summer, women of the 3HO Global Community gathered—and continue to gather in New Mexico at International Women's Camp to have the opportunity to renew themselves and experience their sacredness, their dignity, and their excellence. Yogi Bhajan's vision was always to see women grow in their empowered collective spirit into noble, invincible women of consciousness and grace.
3HO© whole-heartedly supports and celebrates the United Nations International Women's Day. The simple act of prayerfully holding the world together is our greatest virtue. We are the creators and we have the power to change the world by changing ourselves.
Join 3HO in collaboration with the UN's International Women's Day, as we continue to practice and share these sacred teachings dedicated to all women. Gather together in community to celebrate and empower women around the world. Consider joining in the Global Meditation, participating in a service project, or teaching the International Women's Day Curriculum on this very special day.
Men can do this meditation too, by saying, "I am in the Grace of God" instead of "I am Grace of God."

Sorry Mikey. Didn't mean to rub salt in an open wound.
My only point was that these H.S. and collegiates are in
the game for the game and not a pay check.
Fuck dude........if I could pull off a WWF or similar I sure as shit
would. Visa, Mastercard, American Express and the bank that
holds my paper don't care where the money comes from...just
so it comes every month.
super hot!!!!!!!!!!!
super hot!!!!!!!!!!! i love it
Here is some more footage from the video that was posted here earlier. Look at the guy in blue at around 2:34 and you will clearly see he popped a woodie! lol... I love all the close-ups on their asses, too!!
The best part of the whole video, is that the guy in blue didn't seem the least bit embarassed about it. He's proudly struting his stuff showing off his hard cock!!
I, personally, love wrestling!! I'm not into the John Cena-type of wrestling (although some of the guys are hot), I prefer this!! It's like gay sex with clothes and without intercourse.
Oh wow his hung! Such a turn on another wank for me
Damn! Maybe I should have gone to some of my college room mates wrestling matches! If only I had known what I might have seen!
Very famous clip of a wrestler with a boner
Clip with slow motion re-runs of the important parts:
One of them pushes his cock in the face of the other
He gets a boner after it, watch closely
At the end of the match, the other guy is so pissed off
He refuses to shake his hand, but the ref makes him
I had a friend on the wrestling team in high school. We actually asked him if he ever got a boner while wrestling (which wouldn't be surprising, he was a massive horn-dog). He said no, but we didn't really believe him.
Ask him if he ever gave or received one. Sometimes the answer
is dependent upon how the question is asked.
WTF watch the whole lot it's fuckin hot..... Guaranteed boner!
Well I don't doubt it is but still I'd rather get straight to the good part.
I have been in Mac Donalds and seen guys get hardpons just leaning against the counter its a norman reaction to contact.
I just wish that when they said you want fries with that they offered what the guy in front of me has
I guess this thread is as good as any for this vid.
one of the worst tragedies in life is being forgotten by some one you can never forget!
Damn Peter.................
Fake as hell, they all were. but the bodies well,
lets not tell e. Joan about these clips, her computer time is
budgeted right now and we don't want to share her
Anyone remember James from Road Rules? James Orlando....he did a few Challenges, too....on his season, they did a wrestling event and James was in a singlet- without underwear- and you see his cock plain as day- I used to have the pics on my old computer- it crashed and I haven't been able to find again....Anyone have these pics/ James Orlando- mega babe, did some Abercrombie/Finch modelling, too....
This is one hot thread!!!! And I wrestled in hs and college... was always a hot time on the mats.
I went all through the academic years thinking the
boner was part of your grade and if you got a wet
spot........EXTRA CREDIT......
Guess the equipment wasn't to blame for my grade after all.
One other time I recall was at a meet. I was wrestling some dude- heavy, sweaty, rough match. He ended up getting me and won the match. Very sexy guy I was thinking too. Midway through the second period I was starting to get really aroused from all the testosterone, rubbing, being young shit like that. My singlet wasn't doing much to hide my stuff and I think my opponent started noticing too. Anyways...fast forward to the locker area where the guys went in and showered, changed. I trotted back there to shower and change and a few moments later my opponent came walking in- big macho walk and I noticed maybe he was walking that way because he had a major bone now too. He came over to me I told him nice match, you're a good wrestler... yada yada yada. He said yeah you're good too. And he came over and patted me on the ass and I noticed he gave a little squeeze so I did the same to him (I could sense some sexualness in the air I guess) and he looked me straight in the eyes and said I've got something better and more fun you can give a squeeze to. And he turned around and put my hand on his wood. I told him we couldn't do it right there so I took him to a secluded area out of sight upstairs to a classroom (the stairs from the fieldhouse went right up to the main levels of the school). We blew each other and he gave me a good 10min I'm horny/animalistic fuck and it was great- we were both so horny after wrestling.
I saw a lot of play shit stuff go on in high school especially... guys that congregated in the back of the lockers would sometimes have circle jerks to "blow off steam". And I saw some jerking off in the showers. The guys on the high school team I wrestled with were pretty uninhibited which was great. And I really think we had quite a few guys that weren't exactly straight.
Love wrestling guys
I love in this clip how at the end the guy blatantly wants to exit the floor as quick as possible but the ref holds his hand high and parades him round for everyone to see his junk
Hot guy struggling not to pop a boner in training
Looks like a hefty one.
Worst part is he does flop
and drop the top
most the way down
I can see his clown
I want to be in up
more than just his cup
It happenes i wrestled in High School BUT i didnt look like this guy here lol i was only 119-125...damn he looks good! But weird i never got boners till after the match ups
And man id get aggressive as hell all worked up and afterwards i was a bit uncontrollable
Tell you what Rico, Donnie and Ronboy and I
will stop by your crib. They will bring the wine
and I'll bring some smoke. You can slip out of
your singlet and show us you big boy kicks..OK?
These guys get my cock stirring that's for sure.
i would let thm wrestle me any day of the week
Great pics.
As for when you have a bunch of horny, uninhibited, worked up teenage athletes standing around in the showers things can happen and sometimes the guys on my team would have balls. One guy would just start jerking and before you know it just about everyone was jerking. Someone would say something like lets see who can cum the most, who can cum the longest, who can hold out the longest, and on and on... just horny guys doing what seemed innocent teenage guy stuff. It probably happens more than you think. It never, ever resulted in the whole team doing a gang bang or the team fucking one another...which is very pornesque...that just wouldnt happen. I just found a lot of the guys on our wrestling team to be pretty open sexually and very uninhibited when it came to our bodies- I mean we were wrestlers and our sport basically requires us to be almost naked and leave little to the imagination when we do our sport. Some guys wore compression shorts but most guys it was a singlet and nothing else..that doesnt hide your junk really at all, especially when you start boning up.
My last mate was a wrestler in high school. He admitted he did it for the contact with other men--boys. If he liked the guy, he would loose the match, but get a boner. A couple of the guys felt his BIG cock, and met up with him later, and got fucked by him.
Unlike sports where they, the high school/college jock, has a CUP to
not only protect his specialties but disguise what some might consider
his inadequacies. Wrestlers and competitive swimmers don't have that
edge or 'advantage'. See what I'm trying not to spell out? Coming up short
in the showers is bad enough but fuck all if the teen age ego can handle that
and pimples.
Absolutely, guys.
But for me it's not all about having to lead to sex, jack off or whatever like that. The sight of a (straight) wrestler with an accidental boner to me is just great enough as it is. I like the high school/college wrestlers and just looking at their junk moving around in their singlets has always been enough for me.
I don't feel the need to jump on him immediately. Especially not when it's a straight guy. I just like to watch him move around. It's best when he is not embarrassed and just acts like nothing is going on. It's hormones and a natural response to the intense sport.
Well and simply said.
i think this guy has a boner lol
Wrestling is just a variant of sex, that's all. Of course guys get aroused by it! I remember seeing a picture in our town paper of a high school wrestling meet and the picture showed a boy with his legs wide apart and the other boy all over him. The first boy had a very big and obvious boner -- I was amazed that the newspaper published the photo! Perhaps they knew that "wrestling" is just a cover for sex for everyone: "gay," "straight," or "whatever."
I sure wish I had that picture to post! Even a grainy newspaper photo would be just fine!
This is a beautiful thing I tell ya.
When I was in High School, my best friend was a wrestler - and damn was he cute. HE had the cutest little bubble butt and furry too (wanted to bury my tongue down it.) But I would go with him to the matches and afterward, if we had a sleep over- which I would always try to arrange- Whilst he was in the shower (which he would always leave the door wide open to the bathroom and his bedroom was across the hall) I would see him get naked and climb in the shower- then I would sniff his sweaty singlet. I loved when it had the musky ass smell all over it, it made me almost cum just burying my face in it :P
I got some more stories bout wrestlers in high school and good times with my buddy Ben. Lets keep this post going guys, this is hot.

Yeah, to me, its a definite separate but equal vibe, and I dig it. I have always respected a paladin's AoE tanking abilities, and have always been a little envious, and even though I don't think we will be quite on par, I think if we are on the ball, we as warriors should have no difficulties with the multi mobbing, and I think that the single target tanking on paladins is increasing quite a bit, isn't it?
I did put "iffy" in there as a caveat, but having AoE tanked as long as I have, it rarely happens that I fully block all of the attacks, unless you are referring to AoE farming stuff like Black Morass trash and the regular mobs on the top of BT. I guess it depends on if you are talking about raid AoE tanking or AoE farming regular stuff (it also depends on what AoE style trash hits for in WotLK)

The assumption should be that, if you're talking about raiding, you're going to have both Demo Shout and Thunder Clap available to you. It's not fair to assume otherwise, particularly since a lot of the theorycrafting being done is assuming much more restrictive things (like having a Paladin w/ BoSanc in every raid).
If you're talking about Heroics and 5-mans and AOE grinding, yeah, you're blocking for full. That hasn't suddenly changed in Wrath.

Dovie'andi se tovya sagain - it's time to roll the dice
By introducing raid content, here's the logical change:
Raid Paladin:
TC + Ardent Defender + Redoubt + Holy Shield
Raid Warrior:
TC + Critical Block + Shield Block
Solo/5-Man Paladin:
Ardent Defender + Redoubt + Holy Shield
Solo/5-Man Warrior:
TC + Critical Block + Shield Block
In the raid, the Paladin's weaker AOE mitigation (while Blocks are fully effective) is accounted for because the Warrior can give the Paladin the full buff. In the 5-man and solo situation, the extra SBV from Critical Block and Shield Block is not effective to the point it imbalances the classes, strictly in mitigation.
Paladins have holy shield + redoubt and ardent defender, which warriors don't. Warriors have TC, Shield Block, and Critical block. I wasn't saying a paladin wouldn't get TC, just that a paladin doesn't provide it. I was just listing what class brought what.
I know things have been on edge in the recent past, but not a single brain cell in my mind was thinking "oh no, warriors get AoE TC and we don't" or "warriors have better AoE mitigation than paladins, QQ". Honest. I was just listing out abilities, nothing more intended in that statement. I think both sides are pretty decent. I have no complaints about it.
That wasn't meant as an insult. I am sorry if it sounded that way. I was trying to say I wasn't thinking those things at all, so you didn't misunderstand my posting.
This post is about AE! tanking, not MTing a boss!
If I'm AE tanking, the AE debuffs can be applied by bestiality druids or any warrior, DPS or tanking.
If you're raiding 3.0.2/TBC - well, your BV just doubled - and AE tanking was already easy from a mitigation perspective unless you're tanking ALL the aboms in MH (I've done it - we had two tanks - me and a bear)
Anyway, for overall AE tanking of big piles of small crap, anyone can do it, but:
Paladins have very good mitigation - close to warriors, maybe ahead, depends on size of pack and how fast they die. Call it "equal first".
Paladins have best threat in TPS terms, second best in "round them up" terms.
So tankadins would be your first choice for "MH mk 2" where there's a lot of relatively tough stuff to AE tank that's going to take a while to kill.
I actually think 2nd choice would be DK (unholy or frost)
Mitigation is decent - that can chain mitigation/avoidance CDs for 30-40 secs, depending on spec. Then there's 20-30 secs of getting face ripped off... kill mobs before that, KK?
TPS second only to pallies
Strongest ability to "round up and control" the packs. Targetable AE, personal freezy-AE-thing if frost, or pedo-hands-snare-thingy if Unholy.
Warriors have demo/tclap/shockwave, lots of mobility. AE taunt, Shield Block. If the mobs can be killed in under 15 secs, very powerful. Four-dozen Murlocks with 5k health? Have the warrior tank it. MH mk 2? Pally/DK - warrior should pick up an abom (or two).
Bears kinda suck. Swipe = front only, no block. Weak TPS. I mean, they can do it, but it's the more work for a bear than any other tank, and they have the worst mitigation and the lowest threat. Use someone else.
I am curious. Has anyone taken the time to actually do a TPS comparison of the various tank classes AoE TPS values? We do a lot of off the cuff orderings and stuff, but it would be interesting to have some real world numbers. What is a paladin's avg consecration ticking for at 80 in Naxx 10? A warrior's damage shield, shockwave, TC? A warlock or mage's AoE threat (for vigilance transfer)? A druid's swipe? The various DK AoE abilities?
I might have missed a few abilities (not feeling well atm). I am not sure if raid wide things should or should not be added (ret aura, thorns, etc.), but they could be if desired.
Anyone ever done this or have access to the numbers needed to? It would be an interesting project to say the least.
As a druid that usually raids on WOTLK with a Paladin Prot (sometimes a Warrior) I see myself as the worst AOE tank of the 4. Not by much, but all our AOE skills are directional and if we are the best for "snap" aggro generation, we are the worst for aoe "snap" aggro generation unless we use Berserk (and is directional too).
For example on Shartarion I never tank the adds for this reason, leaving the work for any other tank in the raid.
Anyway I'm ok with this, we're better AOE tanks than before (and capable of doing the same but with more work).
Follow the Moeko Principle.
That's another thing, the raid buffs have gotten spread out and are now shared among the entire raid, which means in a diverse raid you can get a lot of beneficial buffs that you didn't before (and debuffs as well). There are DPS classes who can reduce attack speed the way Tclap used to be the key buff, and the Lock/Moonkin/Unholy DK buff that increases spell dmg done to the target is now 13% instead of 10% you got only from imp CoE, which will be nice for Pally threat.
Blessing of Sanc now makes your whole tank squad nastier for having a prot pally along no matter who's tanking. If you have a strong threat margin then a warrior could even drop his Vigilance on another tank and grant more mitigation (and put himself at a comfortable second threat).
No one is here to represent the serious bears though? I'm quite interested in hearing how Bear tanking feels now.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
Blood DK's do fine, actually Frost was the last to come to the table for survival, it was spikey, to say the least. It ranks below Frost and Unholy for AOE threat, but it certainly won't lose anything, with a reduced CD on DnD from t1 Unholy and plenty of Death Coils to throw around there's certainly no one coming loose.
I expect Blood will be one of the scariest specs to accept from traditional tanks because the spec buffs healability and self-healing more than direct mitigation. You'll get hit a bit harder, but you are easy to heal and you can heal yourself in your standard rotation for pretty remarkable amounts.
Frost actually may outperform Unholy aoe threat in burst situations. It won't beat Unholy's sustained aoe threat, but I can spike a HB very early in the fight for 6k-7k or so damage (and my gear is still mostly 80 blues) and repeat that every 6 seconds. I can also do that at range once I set up diseases (which no other tank can do). Unholy Knights essentially use old Afflic style threat, you stack DoT's on everything, that with deep Unholy really burn, but they don't spike. Unholy will slow and steady past Frost in a longer fight/pull.
I do <3 DK tanking, I wish I could be leveling my DK to 70 pre-expansion so I could hit some 70 endgame and be ready to level with the front lines instead of having to play catch up.
The (Old) Book on Death Knight Tanking
The New Testament on Death Knight Tanking
See! I didn't kill the discussion!.... I'm still watching though!
READ THIS: Posting & Chat Rules
I've seen an interesting debate in the DK beta forum, on how much some enemies in WoLK will have Frost or Shadow resist, that seems to hinder two out of three type of DK, which gives an unseen advantage to blood as they rely more on pure damage and less on disease.

"'Kyrie eleison,' the congregants intone, while at the altar, a retired cop-turned-Orthodox priest performs rituals as old as Christianity. When he steps down to face the crowd, he delivers a sermon like a country preacher, sweat beading on his forehead. 'Some of us here are former Methodists,' says the Rev. James Hamrick, wearing white vestments over a black cassock, addressing two-dozen worshippers scattered sparsely through the pews. 'Some of us were former Lutherans. Some of us were former Episcopals. Evangelicals. Non-denominational Christians. Pentecostals. But the one single factor that is common to all of our journeys — no, not where we come from — is that fact that we pursued the truth of God's self-revelation.'"

SVS Press Releases Book by "The Opinionated Tailor," Kh. Krista West
July 2013
Khouria Krista West, owner of Krista West Vestments and an Ancient Faith Radio podcaster ("The Opinionated Tailor"), has released a new book with St. Vladimir's Press titled The Garments of Salvation. The first comprehensive book on this topic in the English language, the text invites readers to explore the fascinating and colorful world of Orthodox Christian vesture and church adornment. Wife of Fr. Alban West, the rector of St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church in Portland, OR, Kh. Krista is unveiling her new book at the 51st Annual Archdiocese Convention in Houston throughout the week of July 21-28. The Orthodox Christian Network (OCN) is also airing an interview with Kh. Krista about her book on the podcast "Come Receive the Light."
Praise for Kh. Krista's book:
The Garments of Salvation will fascinate anyone who loves "the beauty of Thy house" with its insight into the meaning and making of liturgical vestments and fabrics. Most importantly, it returns to us our own holy tradition, a tradition of great beauty, which threatens to be lost to the temptations of cheap materials and hasty production. Beauty matters, and The Garments of Salvation will make you hungry to see it in your own church. ~Kh. Frederica Mathewes-Green
Works of the Order in Action: Project Mexico
A ministry supported by The Order of St. Ignatius and many individual Antiochian parishes, Project Mexico is in the midst of its busy summer in Tijuana, Mexico. Home building crews have been working each week since May.
Two types of homebuilding groups participate each summer: small groups, and Orthodox Basic Training (OBT) groups. During small group weeks, teams from one, two, or three parishes construct a single home for a needy family and spend the afternoons interacting with the boys of St. Innocent Orphanage. During OBT weeks, larger groups travel to Tijuana to construct between four to seven homes in one week, and evening speakers each evening discuss a variety of Orthodox Christian topics. Two of this year's presenters are Antiochian priests Fr. Michael Nasser from Bowling Green, KY and Fr. John Bethancourt from Santa Fe, NM.

Operation: Lace Up is FOCUS Summer Project
June 28, 2013
The Fellowship of Orthodox Christians United to Serve (FOCUS) writes:
Imagine if you or your children could not attend school or stay healthy because you did not have a sturdy pair of shoes. Children should be able to have the freedom to run and play with durable soles and their feet protected. Throughout the country, children who are experiencing homelessness and poverty have inadequate or no shoes at all, which leads to being unable to go to school, participate in sports, play on the playground, and pose numerous health risks.
In response, FOCUS is launching Operation: Lace Up, a national shoe distribution program that will begin in the summer of 2013. Hundreds of thousands of children affected by homelessness and poverty will receive two new pairs of high-quality shoes each year. The goal of the program is to ensure that all school-age children have comfortable, properly-fitting shoes and are able to attend school. Operation: Lace Up will work with public school districts in 28 metropolitan areas across the United States to reach kids in need.
The first shoe distributions will begin in August 2013, in preparation for the new school year. Details are available on the FOCUS website.

Memory Eternal! + Dorothy Elizabeth Rothman Fluty
By Dr. Doreen D'Angelo
Dorothy Elizabeth Rothman Fluty passed away on June 16, 2013 at the age of 96. She was a member of St. Mary's Orthodox Church in West Palm Beach, FL. Dorothy was pre-deceased by her loving husband, Nicholas Michael Fluty (Flutie), who was born in Lebanon and passed away in 1984.
She was born in the Bronx, New York in 1916, where she lived with her parents, Nathan & Carrie-Ethel Rothman. Most people didn't know that our mother Dorothy was of Jewish background (both parents). One day she and I sat down and had a serious discussion. She wanted what I had, and I said, "Momma, what do I have that you want."? She said she noticed that I could handle situations that were coming my way with a godly attitude, something she never experienced in her life up till that point. I told my momma, that we can talk with Dad and see about her taking lessons and being baptized into the Orthodox Church Dad belonged to. I was Catholic, and my Dad was Orthodox, so it only seemed fitting to choose my Dad's church.
Mother, for the first time in her life, belonged, and she soon volunteered for everything she could possibly do for the church. Momma gained many friends who are still remembering her and the wonderful selflessness she put forth in all she did. Dorothy (Momma) has two children: her loving daughter Dr. Doreen D'Angelo, and Fred, her younger child. Both have been married for many years to their loving spouses: Doreen's husband is Joseph D'Angelo, and Fred's wife is Ann Fluty. Doreen and Joseph have four children. Fred and Ann have no children. She also had two Grandchildren, Stephanie, and Stephen. Two Great Grandchildren, Joey and Nina (from Canada). A Great-Great Grandchild named Talia (from Canada). Dorothy also has two step-Grandchildren named, Darlene & Francene D'Angelo (son, Chris).

Alone In A Foreign Land, Syrian Refugees Face New Fears And Sacrifices
International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) marks World Refugee Day in remembrance of the sacrifices made by refugee families all over the world.
June 19, 2013
Baltimore, MD (IOCC) — When violent clashes suddenly erupted in his Aleppo neighborhood, Faruk, 33, his pregnant wife, Mona, and their three children left their home in Syria and the only life they had ever known to make the exhausting, 160-mile trek to Lebanon's Bekaa Valley. Arriving safe but penniless and alone in a foreign land, the former construction worker fashioned a small shelter out of scavenged scrap metal for his family. The long and difficult journey made Mona seriously ill. Faruk took her to several hospitals in search of help, only to be turned away from each one because he couldn't pay for her care.
With his wife's life at stake, he pleaded with strangers for any help they could give and eventually scraped together enough money to cover the hospital fees. Mona gave birth to a little girl, but the long journey and harsh living conditions in their makeshift home took their toll on her weakened body and she passed away four days later. A devastated Faruk, who left Syria out of fear for the safety of his family, was now a widower filled with a new fear – how to care for a newborn and three more children with no means to support them.
Christian Churches Together Urges President to Support Abducted Syrian Bishops
Letter sent to President Obama
June 11, 2013
President Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Mr. President:
We write you as leaders of Christian Churches Together in the USA, an organization comprised of 43 denominations and organizations representing the full spectrum of Christian faith - Catholic, historic Protestant, Evangelical/Pentecostal, Orthodox, and Historic Black churches. We wish to share with you our deepest concern over the kidnapping of two prominent archbishops in Syria, Greek Orthodox Archbishop Paul Yazigi of Aleppo and Syriac Orthodox Archbishop Yohanna Ibrahim of Aleppo. As you know, they have been missing since April 22, and the driver of their car, a deacon in the Syriac Orthodox Church, was killed.
The members of our churches and organizations deeply lament the ongoing and horrible tragedy in Syria, with the deaths of tens of thousands, the displacement of millions, and the bitter sectarian hostility which seems to grow daily. Our prayers for comfort are with all who suffer, and our prayers for wisdom and courage are with all who are working for peace.
But we are addressing you in particular about the fate of these two courageous and well-loved Archbishops in Syria because of what they mean to the Christian community in that country and around the world. While we understand that there may be limitations on what the U.S. government can do directly to secure their release, we also know that the U. S. and its allies have considerable influence with a number of governments and factions on the ground who could make a difference in the fate of these two kidnapped church leaders. The fact that they were traveling on a humanitarian mission makes this matter all the more tragic and horrific.
International Conference on Orthodox Church Music and Icons Held in Finland
Presentations addressed relationship between liturgical music and iconography
Joensuu, Finland – The Fifth International Conference on Orthodox Church Music was held 3-9 June 2013 here, at the School of Theology, University of Eastern Finland. The conference, hosted by the International Society for Orthodox Church Music (ISOCM), featured participants from fifteen different countries presenting papers on a variety of topics related to the conference's overall theme of "Church Music and Icons: Windows to Heaven."
"This year's conference built on the four previous, and also expanded our range, in linking the discussion of church music with iconography," said the Rev. Ivan Moody, board chairman of ISOCM, "Not only were musicians discussing their work and its relationship to icons, but we also had a number of joint sessions in which musicologists and iconologists presented their work together."
The week-long gathering affirms the mission of ISOCM as a place in which like-minded people can come together and share their vision, and learn from others. Conference participants included musicologists, singers, directors, graduate students, composers, researchers, iconographers, iconologists, and those who have an appreciation of the liturgical arts. "One of the highlights of conferences hosted by ISOCM is the gathering of participants from around the world," said Deacon Petri Nykänen, vice-chair of the ISOCM board. He added, "The presentations were of the highest caliber, and coupled with the divine services provided each of us with the opportunity to worship, learn, and sing together."

CHIANG MAI: -- Chiang Mai is currently suffering a surfeit of paedolphiles and others of a similar disposition, according to the city authorities, so much so that police have announced their avowed intent to stamp out the menace. A Department of Special Investigation (DSI) source recently revealed the existence of a child-sex ring organized by a wayward monk and a layman; the two subsequently having been prosecuted along with one of their British clients.
The two, Phra Vissanu Tejdhammo of Wat Pa Lan and Surasak Keawman, 51, have been arrested, charged with sexually exploiting children. The monk apparently was wont to venture out into the territory of the hill tribe villages in Chiang Mai and neighbouring provinces, without his robes. Finding suitable victims, largely young boys, the monk would entice them, perhaps using the ploys described below, and then, having beguiled the poor innocents take them back to Chiang Mai where Keawman would sexually seduce them; softening them up, so to speak, before farming them out to foreign paedophiles, who had come to Thailand for that specific purpose.
The layman, Keawman, was nabbed first, as six boys were found in his house, and evidence found on Tejdhammo's phone showed Keawman having sex with the boys, as other evidence as well like lists of male and female teenagers, a baseball bat, an electric prod and condoms. Keawman then informed on his colleague, Tejdhammo, who was subsequently arrested. The two offenders were charged by the DSI with six counts each of child molestation and six counts of depriving a child of parental care. One of their foreign clients, an unnamed 67-year-old British national, was also arrested, charged with the same offences.
SE Asia is a favourite happy hunting ground for sex tourists, in general, and paedophiles in particular. The ideal conditions of abject poverty, statelessness (as in the case of refugees and hill tribe people), lax or ill-defined laws, corrupt police, bribery and corruption among the authorities, abandoned children, low education and a lack of specific training in law-enforcement all make for exceptional opportunities for such individuals, leaving young victims irreparably damaged and the perpetrators rarely reported or prosecuted, or frequently if they are, miraculously reappearing on the streets after supposedly having been imprisoned, as has been the case in several instances in Pattaya.
Indeed, extreme vulnerability is a decided turn on for these individuals, apparently. In one well recorded incident, 20 convicted Australian paedophiles attempted to travel to Indonesia and Thailand immediately after the Boxing Day tsunami, evidently to prey on vulnerable, displaced children. Quick thinking by the Australian authorities prevented their entry into either of these countries because their names were red-flagged, being child sex-offenders, and notice of their presumed intent transmitted to the Thai and Indonesian authorities who barred their entry.
Paedophiles are not normally so easily identifiable, however. They can be of any nationality and any age, particularly since the introduction of Viagra, as the recent conviction of a 78-year old male paedophile from Pattaya showed, as he was caught in flagrante delicto with large supply of the medication.
Although all socio-economic groups contain paedophiles, as do all occupations, certain ones are favourites, such as school and foundation volunteers, teachers, clerics, policemen and missionaries, again another prime example being from Pattaya. These positions put them in the ideal situation because they firstly, gain the trust of their victims and secondly, rely on their personas as authority figures, making resistance difficult, particularly in societies where respect for authority is highly regarded.
They may be single or married, couples having been known to indulge in the same victim. However, they rarely have an extensive peer group, other than those of the same ilk, frequently sharing victims. An overriding characteristic, which seems to hold true in many cases, however, is that they are inordinate collectors, who never throw anything away.
They will frequent the obvious procurement areas, such as Sunni Plaza in Pattaya, or the poorer areas where street children congregate. The bait that they use for enticement includes offering money, (to either the child or its parents), buying presents and providing shelter and food, appeals for assistance, and enticements such as, 'come inside, I have something special to show you'.
The penalty for sex crimes of this nature range from rehabilitation, various terms of imprisonment to chemical castration and in extreme cases, the death penalty as is current in certain US states, e.g. South Carolina, where the death penalty is mandatory for the second offense of raping a child under age 11, or in Oklahoma, with a death penalty provision for raping a child under age 14.

Goody ColourCollection Ouchless Headwrap
Based on 2 Reviews
TarekaHairBlackThick or Coarse HairMy Head Is Too Small For This HeadwrapThe headwrap is beautiful and of good quality; however, it is a little big for my head. I do have a small head though and I have not tried wearing it with my hair out it a fro. Hopefully it will fit better when I fro my hair out, but I was hoping to be able to add a little something extra to my plain Jane ponytail or bun.

M G.NYCHairMedium BrownNormal HairBrown Color Is Off, I Wish I'd Gotten It In BlackI have medium brown hair and ordered this is brown. The band is kind of bronze and lighter than my hair. I now realize that matching to your hair color isn't a great idea. This color would coordinate well with some of my clothes, but I'd get more use out of a black one4 out of 4 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

NFPA 3: Recommended Practice for Commissioning and Integrated Testing of Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems and Handbook Set, 2012 Edition
|Item # 3SET12
Maximize safety with the tools you need to complete the commissioning and integrated testing process. Succeed with NFPA 3 and its full-color Handbook.
Today's sophisticated buildings require proper commissioning and integrated testing of fire protection and life safety systems to ensure the systems can function as intended. This Set prepares stakeholders and building owners with NFPA 3: Recommended Practice for Commissioning and Integrated Testing of Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems and NFPA®'s first edition, full-color NFPA 3: Commissioning and Integrated System Testing Handbook.
Save 15% on resources that help you ensure commissioning and integrated testing are handled correctly:
- Developed in response to a request from the National Institute of Building Science (NIBS), NFPA 3 outlines a process for the commissioning and integrated testing of interconnected safety systems, to help stakeholders verify systems are optimized to function as intended. NFPA 3 covers procedures, methods, responsibilities, and documentation, and is adaptable for all types of systems -- fire protection suppression and control, fire alarm, emergency communications, smoke control, power, fire doors, commercial cooking operations, elevators, and more. (Softbound, 52 pp., 2012)
- NFPA 3: Commissioning and Integrated System Testing Handbook provides step-by-step guidance from NFPA 3 experts. It combines the complete text of NFPA 3, Annex A, and commentary explaining how NFPA 3's recommendations provide the building owner with documentation that the buildings systems have been installed correctly and will perform as intended in accordance with the owner's project requirements. The Handbook addresses all types of systems and identifies tasks to be done within each phase. Work flow charts depict team members, their qualifications, and their roles and responsibilities throughout the commissioning process. Includes full-color photos and graphics, plus sample forms with a web link for easy downloads. (Hardbound, Approx. 300 pp., 2012)
The 2012 NFPA 3 and Handbook Set is essential for anyone responsible for building construction and management or involved with commissioning and integrated testing, including architects, designers, contractors, engineers, building owners, managers, insurers, and inspection authorities.

Discuss this movie. Filmed April 29-June 30, 2008
Available on DVD and Blu-ray.
Oh my, it's just terrible. No kidding, this is so wrong. The art-work sucks. It's that simple. But beside that problem there's the fact this looks like a flat stupid random comedy that makes fun about gay people. That's not what Phillip Morris is about,not at all. I hate this poster, I realy do.

text: The title says "88", but the album's from 1978 – and it's one of Sergio's great sets from the 70s that mixes older Brazilian roots with sweeter American soul! The sound is really wonderful – almost more LA than Rio, but still with plenty of Brazilian elements filtered into the mix – not just in the choice of tunes, which is great, but in the freer, looser jazz styles employed with the vocals. Sergio plays some especially wonderful keyboards on the album – further enforcing a sense of jazzy warmth – and vocals are mostly by the team of Carol Rogers and Marietta Waters, singing together in that twin-female approach that Mendes used often over the years, but also with Waters stepping out solo a bit too. Musicians include both American jazz talents like Bud Shank and Frank Rosolino – plus Brazilian artists who include Nana Vasconcelos and Nelson Angelo. Titles include a great version of "Waters of March (aka Agua De Marco)" – done at a fast clip, with English lyrics, and a very nice groove that makes the cut a real dancefloor groover – and other tracks include "Bridges", "Misturada", "That's Enough For Me", "One More Lie", "Life Goes On", and "Tiro Cruzado". © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

The vision and prescription plans are tied to the medical insurance plans and include full family coverage. For a side-by-side comparison of the plan details for the above medical/vision plans, see the MCLEA Health Plan Summary (for Law Enforcement Association employees). Employees also have the option of waiving health coverage if they desire. The county does not offer a financial incentive to waive coverage.Dental PlansThere are two dental plan choices for MCLEA employees:
Employees may choose either dental plan with any of the medical plans. For example, the Kaiser HMO medical/vision plan may be paired with the Moda/ODS dental plan.
Monthly Premium CostsMarion County pays 95% of the monthly health insurance premiums. Employees covered under MCLEA pay 5% of the monthly health plan premiums. Premium costs include all eligible family members. Please refer to the chart at the end of the Health Plan Summary for premium share amounts.Waiving CoverageMCLEA employees may choose to waive medical/vision and dental coverage. If employees have other medical coverage, they are eligible to waive coverage and can do so at any time during the year. Proof of other coverage must be provided.
Website Resources and Tools for Health Plan MembersMarion County's health plans have excellent resources on their websites that allow members to search the provider networks, review their health plan booklet, and access helpful information such as health resources and medical encyclopedias.

The first submarines were tiny, cramped and noisy. Today's missile subs approach 600 feet in length, carry a crew of hundreds and are capable of running virtually silently beneath the world's oceans for months at a time. Many military strategists feel that they are the most effective and powerful weapons ever developed.
MISSILE SUBMARINES is an extraordinary look at these incomparable ships. From the first ships of the "George Washington" type, launched in 1959, to the stunning Soviet "Typhoons" and the U.S. "Lafayette" subs, trace the refinements and breakthroughs that made these ships into the undisputed masters of the seas.
Find out how these vessels influenced the course of the Cold War and continue to shape policy to this day. And go aboard a modern "boomer" as it patrols deep beneath the waters on its silent, vital mission.

We Are All Connected
Combining his love of science and music, musician John Boswell uses the audio processor Auto-Tune to sample lectures, television shows, and interviews with scientists.
In "We Are All Connected," Boswell remixes the words of Carl Sagan, Richard Feynman, Bill Nye, and Neil deGrasse Tyson with music and images from sources including Powers of Ten, Stephen Hawking's Universe, and Cosmos. It is one of four videos in the Symphony of Science project, which combines scientific knowledge and philosophy with music. His first video, "A Glorious Dawn," went viral on YouTube in the fall of 2009.
Neil deGrasse Tyson:
We are all connected;
To each other, biologically
To the earth, chemically
To the rest of the universe atomically
- Richard Feynman:
I think nature's imagination
Is so much greater than man's
She's never going to let us relax
- Carl Sagan
We live in an in-between universe
Where things change all right
But according to patterns, rules,
Or as we call them, laws of nature
- Bill Nye:
I'm this guy standing on a planet
Really I'm just a speck
Compared with a star, the planet is just another speck
To think about all of this
To think about the vast emptiness of space
There's billions and billions of stars
Billions and billions of specks
- Carl Sagan:
The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it
But the way those atoms are put together
The cosmos is also within us
We're made of star stuff
We are a way for the cosmos to know itself
Across the sea of space
The stars are other suns
We have traveled this way before
And there is much to be learned
I find it elevating and exhilarating
To discover that we live in a universe
Which permits the evolution of molecular machines
As intricate and subtle as we
- Neil deGrasse Tyson:
I know that the molecules in my body are traceable
To phenomena in the cosmos
That makes me want to grab people in the street
And say, have you heard this??
- Richard Feynman:
There's this tremendous mess
Of waves all over in space
Which is the light bouncing around the room
And going from one thing to the other
And it's all really there
But you gotta stop and think about it
About the complexity to really get the pleasure
And it's all really there
The inconceivable nature of nature
John Boswell is a musician based out of Washington state. In January 2010, he released the electronic music project Colorpulse.

32nd annual School Days
Tuesday, May 6 and Wednesday, May 14, 2014
School Days is an opportunity for school children to ride a full-sized diesel powered train and see displays of America's railroad heritage. Students will take a round trip train ride on vintage coaches for approximately 30 minutes. You can see an optional Operation Lifesaver presentation as well as tour railway cars which may include post office car, sleeping cars, and caboose.
Please allow approximately 1½ to 2 hours to ride the train and view the exhibits. Since many school field trips require parents to pay admission costs, teachers are advised that no student should be excluded because of inability to pay the cost of admission. To make your visit more enjoyable, we are limiting the number of passengers per train. Please make your reservations early.
Costs: Students $3.00
Teachers, Chaperones, Bus Drivers Free
Facilities: Restrooms, gift shop, and shaded picnic area on Museum grounds.
Location: Museum is located on Iron Horse Place just south of Interstate 72, exit 166 at Monticello, Illinois, 20 miles south-west of Champaign and 20 miles north east of Decatur.
