|My husband replaced my alternator about a month ago and this month my car needs inspection. When he went to get it inspected, they told him that it had not been driven enough since the alternator was changed. It needed to be drove for 75 miles for the computer to reset. I have driven the car about 200 miles, why would the computer not be reset and is there anything we can do to make it reset? Also, is there a way you can tell when it is reset before I take it again to be inspected?
thanks for any info you can give me.
btw, my car is a 1996 Chevy Blazer 4WD 6cyl. and has 132,000 miles. thanks again
Follow-Up Postings:
|Maybe there was trouble code set when the old alternator went out, and the code was not cleared when the new alternator was installed. I would have thought that the old code would have been cleared when the problem was resolved, but maybe not. Some codes require up to 50 starts to clear.
Why not have the codes read and if there is one associated with a failed alternator, clear it. A number of simple code readers have the capability to clear some, but not all codes.
In reading the codes, you may find the one the testing station is objecting to. Did they say which code was set, or that only a code was set and did not identify it?
|Your truck should pass the emissions test with two monitors still not set. Plus, your truck should easily pass all but one of the monitors in a single road test of fifteen to twenty miles that is performed under varying driving conditions.
The "drive cycle" is the routine that makes you operate the truck in each of the specific conditions that allow the individual tests which make up the monitors to run. You can google "drive cycle" and your trucks make, model, and year, and print out the routine yourself to follow. A monitor can consist of anywhere from one to a group of individual tests. If one of the individual tests does not run, then the monitor does not complete, and that's when you end up in the situation you find yourself in. Each individual test has its own operating criteria. Engine speed, engine temperature, vehicle speed, are all important details. But additionally, certain vehicle problems can cause specific tests to not run. These are known as "Blocking Conditions". An example would be if the engine temperature isn't high enough, then the fuel control monitor won't run. An engine missfire when detected could block the fuel control monitor, the O2 sensor performance test of the O2 monitor, and the catalytic converter monitor.
With all of this being said, the first thing we need to see now is what monitors are completing, and which ones are not. Then with the next key on we need to see if the completed monitors cleared, which can happen if a problem with the PCM's keep alive memory has occurred. If monitors that did complete did not clear, then the tech simply needs to concentrate on the monitors that did not complete and see if there is a blocking condition occurring, and if so repair that problem so the vehicle's computer can complete its self testing. Its not uncommon to find that once we get the blocking condition if one exists solved we often find the vehicle finally run all of its monitors, and fail one of them and turn the check engine light on and set a code.
Be glad you have a 96, take it from me this system is very forgiving and relatively easy for a properly trained and equipped technician. Today's cars are much, much harder to solve these kinds of problems with.
The reason I suggeested reading the trouble codes is that I did not know which state that truck was in, and that states have different testing requirements, futhermore, it would be good to know which trouble codes were set. My state has reduced the test requirement to first, reading the OBD2 codes and if one is set, they say "Go away, fix the problem, and then come back." And they do not necessarily tell you which code was set. Its an exesperating situation.
However, in this case, I do agree that it is a good idea to take this vehicle to a qualified diagnostic technican.
|Hi Jem.
Cindip did not specify that the check engine light has come back on indicating that there is a trouble code setting. That suggests that there is a condition that is either blocking a test, or a group of tests from completing which could potentially result in a code setting if they did, or the computers memory is simply being cleared each time the truck is turned off.
Every trouble code that can set actually relates to a monitor in the diagnostic system. Think of each monitor as a test, and the generation of a trouble code is the score that the vehicle got on a particular test.

An iconic structure from the 1964 World's Fair will be open to the public next month for a rare look inside thanks to a grassroots volunteer group that has been working hard to make it happen. NY1's Ruschell Boone filed the following report.
With some rollers, paint, brushes and scrapers a small group of volunteers has given new life to the New York State Pavilion.
After decades of neglect, they're getting it ready for a rare public viewing next month to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the 1964 World's Fair. It's been a five-year paint job.
"We have been working very hard and gaining the trust of the Parks Department and elected officials over the years. They are allowing us to open the gates and allow people to come in and take a little peek," said Mitch Silverstein of the New York State Pavilion Paint Project.
There will be limited access to view and take pictures of the Tent of Tomorrow and the famous towers. People can also speak with the volunteers known as the New York State Pavilion Paint Project crew.
"I got involved in this project with these guys in 2011. I just happened to be walking by and decided, you know what: I see these towers everyday. They were in 'Men in Black', They were in movies that I know. Why not take the effort," said Thomas Bleuzen of the New York State Pavilion Paint Project.
Mitch Silverstein and John Piro were a two-man crew before others joined in. Both attended the fair.
"I just loved this pavilion and as the years went on I saw this decay and it just like tore my heart," Piro said.
So they spent $3,500, some of which was donated, and a tremendous amount of time to paint it. The others come from as far as Pennsylvania. Only two volunteers are from Queens.
"Regardless of what my wife says, I'm coming down here and I'm painting when they need me," said Ed Gossett, a New York State Pavilion Paint Project volunteer.
But painting is not enough to restore the pavilion. That could cost up to $72 million, according to the Parks Department. The crew is hoping that by highlighting the structure, support for restoring it will continue to grow. There has long been support from Parks and now the Queens Borough President.
"This is history. It's drawing the interest for the masses," Piro said.
April 22 will mark the 50th anniversary of the day the fair started. The east gate will be open to the public from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and visitors have to sign a waiver and wear hard hats.

It's official – Jamie Dornan is the new Christian Grey in the "Fifty Shades" movie.
"Stow your twitchy palms ladies… our man is here. Welcome to
#TeamFifty @JamieDornan1 x," E. L. James tweeted yesterday.
Dornan, 31, is a former Calvin Klein model and "Once Upon a Time" actor. Reports started to surface midweek that he would replace Charlie Hunnam after the "Sons of Anarchy" star dropped out of the film due to a busy schedule.
The studio declined to confirm the casting, but the author's tweet seals the deal.
Read: You May Already Know 'Fifty Shades of Grey's' Jamie Dornan – Here's How
James, the writer behind the very successful book series that inspired the movie adaptation, has been very active in tweeting castings that pertain to the film.
She tweeted, "I am delighted to let you know that the lovely Dakota Johnson has agreed to be our Anastasia in the film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey," when the young actress, 24, was cast.
And she tweeted when Charlie Hunnam was cast and even when he left the project.
"I wish Charlie all the best. x," she posted.

If you prefer your fun-times under cover when the weather outside isn't the best, then you'll discover an abundance of options for entertaining kids indoors throughout the island
Soft-play centres and pottery studios. Aqua-parks and aquariums…Exhibitions ranging from ancient hoards of gold to smart clothes and masterpieces by Yeats and Caravaggio. There's no shortage of indoor entertainment (with a side order of education) for kids in Ireland.
Why not start by taking a lie-detector test? By building your own racing car, watching a tornado form or comparing your hand to a gorilla's? Interested? With some 250 exhibits, not to mention daily science demos and shows, Belfast's W5 is one of the best family days out in the country. It may be designed for children, but adults will be smiling just as widely leaving this fun-tastic interactive discovery centre.

Dublin's Imaginosity makes a similar impact. Aimed at kids under nine, it terms itself a "museum", but any learning here is strictly of the hands-on variety. Can you see your little ones practising to be newscasters in front of a real TV camera and blue screen, shopping in a mini-supermarket, or tending to patients in a pretend hospital ward? A three-storey climbing structure leads to a rooftop garden too.
The real sign of a good children's attraction, of course, is the extent to which both adults and kids get a kick out of it. Imagine wandering through the mocked-up medieval streets of Dublin, or coming face to face with a Viking? That's the offer at Dublinia, near Christ Church Cathedral.
Or what about uniting young and old through the medium of... chocolate? There's a rapidly growing artisan chocolate scene in Ireland and families can take tours and get hands-on at workshops at Butler's Chocolate Factory in Dublin, or the Chocolate Garden in Carlow, to name but two. And yes, you get to take your product home.
You may know Belfast's Odyssey Arena as one of Ireland's top music venues. But did you know you can see ice hockey here? The atmosphere at a Belfast Giants home game is sensational.
Travelling with grandparents? No problem. Every generation will find something to treasure at Tara's Palace Museum of Childhood. Housed within Powerscourt House in County Wicklow, exhibits include Ireland's largest period dollhouse and a host of dolls, games and toys from yesteryear.
Likewise, older kids and grandparents alike will love the combination of history and hair-raising spooks at Dublin's Kilmainham Gaol – one of the largest unoccupied jails in Europe.
Kids may yawn at the prospect of a visit to a museum and gallery on holiday, but in Ireland you can turn grimaces into grins with a host of family-friendly programmes, maps and events.
At the Armagh County Museum, for instance, you could find yourself beavering away at a costume or drama workshop. At the Museum of Country Life in County Mayo, you can ask for a box of traditional yard and street games (complete with materials and instructions to play hopscotch, snatch-the-bacon, skittles and other games of yore). Book ahead, and you can organise to open it at a dedicated workshop.
Nor does education and entertainment have to be confined to Planet Earth. At Blackrock Castle Observatory in Cork, you can not only tour an historic dungeon and turret tower, but learn about life in outer space at the award-winning Cosmos at the Castle exhibition.
Best of all, on the first Friday of every month, the Castle hosts open house events, with access to the exhibits for free.

This post comes from our Analytics Channel Sponsor iJento whose mission is to help marketers turn fragmented data into unified, actionable customer intelligence that accelerates their business.
Clearly Big Data is one of 2013's biggest topics.
It's all we hear about at every conference. It's all vendors seem to want to talk about. I was at a marketing conference a few weeks ago and there were so many Big Data references that presenters actually started to apologize for overusing the term.
Despite the rampant overuse, some marketers are still confused.
If you asked 20 marketers the question, "What is Big Data," you'd probably get 20 different answers. Its enough to make us want to bury our heads in the sand, and dismiss Big Data as just the latest buzzword.

Kinsey, the film about the entomologist-turned-sex researcher Alfred C. Kinsey, pays tribute to the man who shocked America in the 1940s with his frank talk about human sexuality. He died in 1956, but his findings from Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948) and Sexual Behavior in the Human Female (1953) are still cultural reference points.
Few people today believe that "frigidity" is the root of all female sexual issues or that masturbation is unhealthy, thanks largely to Kinsey. We live in a seemingly hang-up free society in which politicians hawk erection drugs and college co-eds vie for spots in Girls Gone Wild. PT asked the new guard of sex researchers what Kinsey would think.
On Teen Sex: He was certainly not for 14-year-olds having sex. But he offered his car to engaged couples to give them an opportunity [to have sex]. June M. Reinisch, director emerita, Kinsey Institute, Indiana University in Bloomington

Solstice construction not perfect
This was our eleventh cruise. The ship is huge and beautiful, and the performers/entertainment is clearly the best we have ever been exposed to, with the capability of doing Circue De Soleil-esque difficult performances, Broadway, and 70's rock performances. The Cruise director, Patti, must have made outstanding selections.
As customary for Celebrity, the food is aft and the theater/gym in front. You have to walk at least 300 yards to get from one to the other.
We had chosen a cabin on the forward port side on Deck 8. On the first night, after the ship left Settle and was moving around 18 kts in the open sea, Our cabin experienced creaks and groan sand kept us from getting a good night's sleep. The next day, I complained to the Customer Relations staff, and they apologetically gave us a different room midship.
I have never experienced this on my 10 previous cruises, but the crew tell me that it occurs somewhere on every ship. Less

Eurodam Cruise Review by sam52: sam52

Compare Prices on Eurodam Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruises
First time on HAL was dissappointed.
It was out first time on HAL and 3th cruise overall.
Embarkation was smooth and easy. We were on board by noon. We immediately went to the Lido for lunch. My grilled Reuben sandwich was cold inside.
Food was average. The deserts were poor and plain. We had early dining. The menu choices were nothing special and the food quality was average.
Food in the Lido never improved. Subsequent grilled sandwiches were cold in the middle. The made to order omelets were very good but limited tin choices for ingredients. Even pancakes were slow in coming. I did like the fresh squeezed orange juice.
Dining options outside regular meal times were limited. Only the pizza station was open late. The burger grill was not even open for all dinners.
Our room steward did a good job keeping the room clean but unlike other cruises we never got to know him. The art work in the room should be burned. It bordered on obscene. I More did like that our cabin had a bath tub instead of the usual micro shower.
Entertainment was mixed. . The Eurodam Singers and Dancers were very poor. The dancing was good but all the music and singing was pre-recorded with them lip syncing. It was so obvious that the piano kept playing while they were changing players.
in the piano bar was fun and very good.
The public rooms on the ship were plain and signage as to which side of the ship you were on was almost non existent.
Bottom line: I'm sticking with Princess. Less

Initially I was told that finding a nanny for the one day position with my family was going to be very difficult to fill but I received 4 cv's very quickly. 1 then changed her mind about the position & we had one false start with a nanny who was unsure about her employment rights using the Tinies contract! However, we were found a new nanny very promptly.

I think you get good quality nannies and don't have to sift through dozens of fairly useless candidates via a gumtree ad - even though you do get suitable and experience nannies via adverts obviously. I personally do think the service is expensive and do understand why a lot of people try not to use an agency but you have saved me time as you have only put forward candidates who are good and suitable and that is worth paying for and I know they are all who they say they are which is vital

As one of the most respected and sought after photographers in the world, here is what clients and industry professionals have to say about Otto Schulze:
"Wedding photography can really begin to all look the same after you've looked at over 30 photographers. You start to see the same posed shots over and over and see certain photography trends that could look dated in a few years. Just when I was starting to think we'd have to settle for someone who just took pretty photos, we found Otto and I immediately knew we'd found someone in a different league than most wedding photographers working today. Otto clearly works in a photojournalistic style, which was a must for us, but more than that, every single photo told a story that went so much deeper than the picture itself. I found myself staring at each photo, mesmerized by the moment Otto had captured, feeling like I was getting to share a little bit of the joy and love of the day. Otto's photos were so very full of life and love that we couldn't imagine finding a better person to capture our big day. When Otto made me tear up the very next day after our wedding with a photo of an incredibly intimate, touching, and short-lived moment that we didn't even know had happened, we knew that Otto was the single best decision we had made for our wedding day. Otto was a professional through and through, and his quiet self confidence put us at ease throughout our planning and during the wedding day. He knew exactly when to be an invisible and silent fly on the wall, documenting our every move, and when to take charge, unapologetically giving us direction to make his vision come to life while making sure we got back to the party in time. His clear enthusiasm and love for his craft was infectious as we watched him grow giddy when the clouds parted and gave us magical light just in time for our portraits.
But more than any of these things that make him a skilled photographer, our lasting impression of Otto is that at the end of the wedding day, Otto felt more like a friend that had come to celebrate with us than a vendor we'd hired. Otto may be a documentarian, but he's far from being a detached and uninterested observer. He takes a genuine interest in his subjects and seemed as invested in our happiness as our closest friends. It felt as though Otto and his team were laughing, crying and dancing the night away with us and just happened to have a camera attached to their eyes at all times. I think it's this ability to connect emotionally with his subjects that gives Otto such an adept eye for catching those subtle, elusive moments that we all wish we could capture forever - it's because he is as in the moment as his subjects are. They say that you spend more time with your photographer than with your spouse on your wedding day so you should choose wisely; we feel privileged to have worked with such talent and to have gotten to spend time with a great human being."
"He shoots weddings with the deft eye and casual air of a classic photojournalist..."
" Dramatic, dreamy, and distinctively gorgeous, the work of Otto Shulze speaks with a voice all it's own. As a fine art photojournalist, Otto is an expert at unobtrusively capturing life through his lens and creating stand alone images of truly authentic moments and deeply felt emotions. His sincere passion for celebrating the essence of each couple and their family shines through in every aspect of his work, and his eye for beauty and gracious personality make him one of the most sought-after wedding photographers anywhere."

" Artistic, elegant, creative, timeless...among the best in the world."
erick danzer, best of wedding photography.com
"Otto is one of a kind. He captures moments and emotions in a way that is so unique, embracing the atmosphere and energy of the event perfectly. He's a pro, too. He shows up early, brings extra staff, follows up right on time, and has an amazing way of making you feel like he's not only there to capture the wedding, but he's there to celebrate with you as a friend. He's the best and we couldn't be any happier."
"Otto Schulze not only is a truly talented and genius wedding photographer, he does it with grace, ease and so much lovability that you will want him there as a guest as well. We still hear from friends from all over the world some who were able to attend and many who weren't, say "those were the most incredible wedding photos they had ever seen"
"Otto is truly an artist. We noticed two main differences between his photographs and those of other photographers we researched. First, each and every one of Otto's photos stands on its own. We had a hard time choosing which ones to frame in the end because each of them is unique in its own right - even the photos from the reception where everyone is just out on the dance floor show a careful eye. They're not your typical party pictures. A lot of that has to do with his style - the second differentiators for us. Otto's style is definitely that of a journalist. His strength is in capturing the feeling of a moment. He doesn't like to pose you or force anything (if you are looking for that, you can certainly find that in a million other wedding photographers). If you're looking for very specific shots, you can always let him know. In our opinion, Otto and A.D.'s best shots of our wedding were the "action shots". The more you just enjoy yourself, the better the photos will turn out. We had an amazing time at our wedding, and the photos reflect that. We truly enjoyed working with Otto and A.D."
" Otto Schulze channels Cartier-Bresson to capture the decisive moment in both his wedding work and on the streets."
"Otto took a photo of me that I truly believe only an artist like him could have captured. With my head slightly lowered, I was wiping away a tear and smiling as my lovely sisters were toasting Anthony and me. A moment like that is very subtle, a bride tearing up at her sisters' touching words. Otto noticed and caught it on camera. He is more than a photographer; he is a storyteller. His ability to document beautiful and meaningful images throughout a wedding day will take your breath away. Anthony and I knew from the moment we met him that he was special, and we are thankful for his wonderful work."
natalie pigliacampo
"Otto's ability is unmatched and his documentary approach captured the energy, humor, style and elegance of our wedding through his exceptionally well composed photography and his artistic eye. His unobtrusive style and personality made it a joy to work with him. The entire process, from our initial introduction to his involvement on our wedding day, was as calm and relaxed as we could have imagined. It was as though he wasn't even there, but he somehow managed to capture every spontaneous moment of joy and happiness. Our pictures are phenomenal!"
"Otto's work is amazing! His photographs so perfectly captured the emotions of our wedding day. Just by looking at the pictures you can feel the love and fun that made the day so special. Otto was wonderful to work with, taking care to get to know us and working closely with us to go above and beyond to meet our needs. We would without a doubt recommend Otto and his work!"

One of the top fine art wedding photojournalists in the world
Otto's photos are truly amazing, stunning, creative, and everything that one could ever want when capturing their wedding day. His talent really is incredible. On top of that, he is incredibly easy to work with. Several guest commented that they did not even notice him being there, yet he seemed to capture every important moment. He was early to EVERY shoot, which is astounding, since we were always late. Otto documented our large engagement party at a hotel, and our smaller wedding on a farm property. Both events were captured with great care and all of our guests and friends keep asking who our photographer is, and where we found him. I would recommend him to anybody, and we would pick him again if we had to do it over! All you need to do is look at his portfolio!

"... a rare gem. His perspective on weddings, love, marriage and life is the real deal."
lara casey, editor in chief - southern weddings magazine
"Otto was an absolute pleasure to work with. Besides being a wonderful person, he has an incredible eye and talent for taking beautiful and artistic photos. His work reminds me of the great photographer, Henri Cartier Bresson, and since we wanted more of a documentary style and approach to our wedding photos Otto was the natural choice. I know we'll be seeing a lot more from Otto in the future as his work is too good to not be noticed."
" The most unobtrusive wedding photographer I have ever seen."
peter k, rangefinder magazine
"Over a year ago I met Otto in Aspen when I was working a wedding as a hairstylist/makeup artist and he was the photographer. Instantly I knew that he was going to be great. Not only a pleasure to be around but a very professional man to work with. We exchanged cards that night and talked about working together. Right about that time, I got engaged and starting planning my own wedding. Although I never thought I would spend much money on pictures, I couldn't stop thinking about what I knew Otto could capture on the most special day of my life. I knew that he had a very talented eye for finding the most special candids. I was blown away when I got the sneak preview of my wedding day pictures. The light, the color, and the details that I totally forgot about were all there in the most beautiful form. My family even mentioned that they don't even remember seeing Otto that much that night at the wedding. That is a talent, to take all of these great pictures while being invisible and letting families and friends not be disturbed. His eye for capturing moments is unbelievable and the product that you end up with is some of the best I have ever seen. Colorado is lucky to have this man working here! Thankyou Otto for helping me have some of the most beautiful memories of my life!!"
"Otto's style and unrivaled creativity has made him one of the most sought after wedding photographers"
A Baja Romance Wedding, Cabo, Mexico
Among the elite group of photographers worldwide interviewed by Crash Taylor of the UK.
" Otto's work shines. His treatments are beautiful, he uses light and focus like a fine artist."
"We just received it and we're blown away by the album. I have never seen anything like it. We opened it in the lobby of our apartment and had a crowd of people gather around to admire it. We had to escape to see it ourselves for the first time. It is beautiful and displays the talent you have for capturing the magic of the moment. I love way you used the natural light in the church to create an artistic effect that displays in print what we felt in our hearts that day. The reception images are so much fun. We are both perfectionists and you exceeded our expectations in every area!
Thank you so much! I will try to share your work here on Maui and maybe you and your wife and (soon to come) new baby will have an excuse to visit this beautiful island.
We can't wait to show our families!
"When you think of your wedding day, you want to be able to remember every moment and every detail for the rest of your life. that is what otto did for us. his work is so unique and so beautiful every shot brings a tear to your eye. he captured moments in our wedding that we thought we could never re-live again. the best part of all is you never even knew he was there! although, when you did know he is there, his kindness and professionalism cant help but make you feel comfortable. thank you otto for giving us the most beautiful memories that we can treasure forever!"
"Breath-taking and beautiful, we look at our photos and say, "is that really us?" Otto's ability to capture the Colorado Mountains that were the backdrop to our ceremony, as well as many candid moments that occurred throughout the day was exceptional. The thing that mattered most to John and I was having a great photographer, we also didn't want your standard wedding photos that look like your aunt could have taken. When we found Otto we knew that he was just what we were looking for. His great eye for light and all his time he puts into the editing was very apparent looking at his photos. The photos look like magazine photos, not just your average wedding photos. Otto was very professional, non-obtrusive and a joy to work with! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer that goes that extra mile and provides one of a kind images."
"As a wedding coordinator for Table 6 Productions, I have worked with photographers from all across the country and yet upon working with Otto Schulze, it was evident that his work was in a league of its own!
Otto first began working with a client of ours in March of 2009 and from the initial consultation, he demonstrated a commitment to personally know and understand their style, personalities, and vision prior to shooting their wedding. In addition to meeting and understanding our clients' needs, he visited the venue, (despite the fact that it was not close by) so that he was well prepared on their wedding day. In the days leading up to the wedding, he was immediately available for any questions or concerns that I or my client had. On the wedding day, he arrived earlier than schedule so that he was sure to capture every detail of the Bride and Groom getting ready. During their Ceremony and Reception he was completely unobtrusive, allowing the client and guests to enjoy every second of the celebration and yet captured every element of their day.
I believe Otto is the vital element to any wedding day. He preserves a couple's memory by capturing every moment, personality, detail, and emotion on their wedding day. His beautiful and chic imagery, paired with an unobtrusive and lighthearted approach, creates wedding photography that is as refreshing as it is unforgettable! Otto's ability to capture raw beauty in a photojournalistic fashion brings a new twist to wedding photography which is why I believe he is one of the best photographers that I have ever worked with. I just hope everyone gets an opportunity to work with him, because it will be the best decision one would ever make."

"Otto was an exceptional photographer. He captured incredible shots, but was not intrusive when attempting to capture those moments. Plus, he has such a lovely demeanor and was liked by all who attended our event. I would highly recommend him. You will not be disappointed. His style and artistic eye is bar none! "
"You are the best!!! We are so happy with your work. It was such a magical day for me and your artist style captures just that. "

"Otto was more of a phantom than anything else. He would appear at a spot one moment and was gone the next. Yet he did not miss a beat in capturing wonderfull images"
peter kotsinadelis, RANGEFINDER MAGAZINE
"Otto was a fabulous photographer to work with – absolutely the easiest and most professional of our vendors. He was very patient and open, and really listened to our ideas about what we envisioned for our pictures. His work not only captured the events of the evening, but also the unique expressions and emotions of our guests, which is something we feel so lucky to have documented. We've shown his pictures to our friends and family, and everyone is simply blown away at the unique beauty and creativity of his work. These aren't your standard 'straight' shots that you'd get with most photographers. With Otto you get much more; all the magic and wonder of your wedding day, preserved to enjoy forever. Thank you so much Otto!"
" Otto truly captured the joy and energy of our wedding. He has a real artist's eye, even for moments which pass quickly, and produced truly oustanding work. He is positive, easy to work with, and his work is one of a kind."
"Otto was a joy to work with. His professionalism & easy going attitude helped the day go off beautifully. His camera finds the little moments and captures them with truth and humor. Otto's sense of aesthetics marries nicely with his sense of real people and real moments. I'm so grateful he helped make the day what it was..."
"You are brilliant! you are such a pleasure to work with and your photos are every bit as beautiful (and then some!!) as we remember our day! we adore them!"
"Great photographer, great pictures, great attitude, great personality, non-invasive... awesome! Would definently use again and reccommend to anyone who adores artsy stills. "
"The pictures are WONDERFUL!!!!! You did a FANTASTIC job! Everybody commented on how great you were thank you so much for all your help and doing a PHENOMENAL job! I'm just glad you were able to have you capture our wedding...
Thanks again you were AWESOME!!!"
"Otto, we absolutely loved your work. It is exactly what we wanted and the photos turned out beautiful. Everyone has just loved the joy, excitment, and wonderful moments you caught on film and we look forward to putting pictures up in our house to share and enjoy the rest of our lives. You truly were a pleasure to work with !"
"Thank you so much for being our photographer. The pictures are absolutely GORGEOUS!!! We could not be happier. You are so talented and we love the creativity of your shots. Thank you so much for being so easy going and making the whole process a lot of fun. You have captured so many wonderfull memories."
"We feel so lucky to have found you..."
"We had the pleasure of having Otto to as our wedding photographer.The best part of his work is that he is able to capture the intangible. We were so overwhelmed with love and pure joy on our wedding day. It is unbelievable how Otto's work captures these raw emotions. When we look at our photos its like reliving our incredibly beautiful day over again. Otto has a great gift in being able to capture moments. He is a true artist. It is easy to work with him because he is very friendly and professional."
"Fantastic work!"

Hot Pursuit Party Rolls Into LA
The last time a snazzy rap duo from Philadelphia hit town, the result was a 1990-1996 hit sitcom for NBC. Who's to say something similar won't start to materialize for Chiddy Bang, the headliners from the City of Brotherly Love, at tonight's free 9 p.m. launch party at the Avalon in Hollywood for Electronic Arts video game Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit.
The EA caravan comes to LA after pit stops in New York, Miami, Austin, Chicago, Seattle and San Francisco. Just in case you think video games are not a generational thing, consider the rest of the night's entertainment. If you have heard of any of them, you may continue to hang out with your kids. There's Peanut Butter Wolf, Mayer Hawthorne, DJ Skeet Skeet and Adam 12.
Also on display tonight at Avalon will be some of the cars featured in the game including a Lamborghini Gallardo and a Mercedes McLaren SLR. Since actors Kevin Dillon and Jerry Ferrara from Entourage starred in the game's ad campaign, chances are they could be there tonight as well.

It's now late afternoon in Riyadh, the capital. Thousands of miles away, Americans are already gathering on the National Mall as dawn breaks in Washington. But here, Obama's inauguration is not generating much public excitement.
None of this morning's Arabic newspapers noted the inauguration on their front pages. A couple had short stories inside, noting that Obama had pledged to remove U.S. troops from Iraq. Another ran a piece suggesting Obama will only be different in "Packaging" and "Style" from his predecessor.
Only one, Okaz, noted that history was being made today in Washington.
To be sure, some Saudis are quite happy and hopeful about Obama. Almost all are grateful that the Bush administration is over because they see it as having been disastrous for the Middle East. But for the most part, any revelry that might happen will be in private living rooms when families gather around their TV sets at 8 pm local time for Obama's noon swearing-in.

Comments about Baboon Flower Bulb Mix:
Last year I ordered these and they did grow but no flowers, so this year I will try again the bulbs did not survive a mild (zone 5) winter the warmest on record.I ordered another set so I can try them again and we will see, If they are really hardy to zone 4 they should be fine. Will post a follow up in the fall/will not recommend yet
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This is my second attempt growing these in Zone 5. They've been in the dirt now for a month and a half and I still haven't seen signs of foliage. I really want to succeed with this flower but it seems tricky to grow.

Seriously, I've been willing to be flexible with all of the changes that have been made to the HUD in the past. And, hell, most of the changes have been actual improvements. But the current UI is counter-intuitive to anyone who has played an MMORPG with it sticking enemy information in the severe upper left corner. A UI should not induce a cognitive disconnect between clicking on a unit and providing a scrap of information on that unit. And yet by sticking that **** into the upper left with zero thought given to any aesthetic spacing between the box and the corner of the screen, the information is less accessible that it would have otherwise been when it appeared beside the player portrait in past versions.
I hate to nerd rage about dumb **** like this, but this is actually impacting the playability of the game. I don't even need to go into how overdesigned and cluttered the tab-select team information is and how badly it needs to be streamlined down to being readable without a second thought. The entire overhaul feels like either someone was thinking way, way too hard or the project was handed off to a couple of interns.

Taking his cue from Detroit techno icons Kevin Saunderson, Derrick May and Juan Atkins, Tejada is best known for gritty dance singles like "Sweat (on the Walls)" and "Mono on Mono," but he has also embraced the album form to a greater degree than many of his contemporaries, releasing regular full-lengths starting with 1999's Little Green Lights and Four Inch Faders.

Standard Register Optimizes Operations With New Digital Print And Distribution Center
Standard Register (NYSE: SR) has announced plans for a new national Center of Excellence for digital printing, kitting and distribution in Jeffersonville, Ind., which is in the greater Louisville, Ky. metropolitan area.

Filmmaker Prefers to Ignore 'Lesbian Lena Dunham' Label
From Down Under comes a fun interview with Desiree Akhavan, an Iranian-born actor-director who made waves this year at Sundance with her comedy Appropriate Behavior, in which she stars as Brooklyn bisexual Shirin.
Gay News Network Australia editor Rachel Cook asked Akhavan what it's like to be saddled with the media label of being the "new lesbian Lena Dunham" (as opposed to the old?!). Here's Akhavan's answer:
"If I took that shit seriously I would spend the bulk of my time in the fetal position at the foot of my bed."

Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation:
Structural Problems Limit Agency's Ability to Protect Itself from Risk

(202) 512-4800
More than 34 million workers and retirees in about 30,000 singleemployer defined benefit plans rely on a federal insurance program managed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) to protect their pension benefits. However, the insurance program's long-term viability is in doubt and in July 2003 we placed the single-employer insurance program on our high-risk list of agencies with significant vulnerabilities for the federal government. In fiscal year 2004, PBGC's single-employer pension insurance program incurred a net loss of $12.1 billion for fiscal year 2004, and the program's accumulated deficit increased to $23.3 billion from $11.2 billion a year earlier. Further, PBGC estimated that underfunding in single-employer plans exceeded $450 billion as of the end of fiscal year 2004. This testimony provides GAO's observations on (1) some of the structural problems that limit PBGC's ability to protect itself from risk and (2) steps PBGC has taken to forecast and manage the risks that it faces.
Existing laws governing pension funding and premiums have not protected PBGC from accumulating a significant long-term deficit and have exposed PBGC to "moral hazard" from the companies whose pension plans it insures. The pension funding rules, under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), were not designed to ensure that plans have the means to meet their benefit obligations in the event that plan sponsors run into financial distress. Meanwhile, in the aggregate, premiums paid by plan sponsors under the pension insurance system have not adequately reflected the financial risk to which PBGC is exposed. Accordingly, PBGC faces moral hazard, and defined benefit plan sponsors, acting rationally and within the rules, have been able to turn significantly underfunded plans over to PBGC, thus creating PBGC's current deficit. Despite the challenges it faces, PBGC has proactively attempted to forecast and mitigate its risks. The Pension Insurance Modeling System, created by the PBGC to forecast claim risk, has projected a high probability of future deficits for the agency. However, the accuracy of the projections produced by the model is unclear. Through its Early Warning Program, PBGC negotiates with companies that have underfunded pension plans and that engage in business transactions that could adversely affect their pensions. Over the years, these negotiations have directly led to billions of dollars of pension plan contributions and other protections by the plan sponsors. Moreover, PBGC has changed its investment strategy and decreased its equity exposure to better shield itself from market risks. However, despite these efforts, the agency ultimately lacks the authority, unlike other federal insurance programs, to effectively protect itself.

PHH Corporation Announces Completion Of Its Tender Offer For 9¼% Senior Notes Due 2016
PHH Corporation (NYSE: PHH) ("PHH" or the "Company") announced today the final results of its previously announced tender offer (the "Tender Offer") for up to $350 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 9¼% Senior Notes due 2016 (the "2016 Notes"). The Tender Offer expired at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on September 3, 2013 (the "Offer Expiration Date"). The Company has been advised by the tender agent that as of the Offer Expiration Date, a total of approximately $280 million aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Notes (representing approximately 62% of the 2016 Notes outstanding as of the commencement of the Tender Offer) had been tendered.
The Company previously announced the completion of its solicitation of consents (the "Consent Solicitation") for certain proposed amendments to modify the covenants in the indenture governing the 2016 Notes to conform them with the covenants in the indenture governing the Company's 7.375% Senior Notes due 2019. The Consent Solicitation expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 19, 2013 (the "Consent Expiration Date"). As previously announced, the Company received the requisite consents and, as a result, entered into a supplemental indenture, dated as of August 20, 2013, to effect the proposed amendments.
Holders of 2016 Notes who properly tendered after the Consent Expiration Date and on or prior to the Offer Expiration Date received $1,180 per $1,000 in principal amount of 2016 Notes (the "Total Consideration"), plus accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the final settlement date, which occurred today. In addition, holders of 2016 Notes who properly tendered and delivered consents on or prior to the Consent Expiration Date, but a portion of whose tendered 2016 Notes were not purchased on the early settlement date, which occurred on August 20, 2013, due to proration, also received the Total Consideration plus accrued interest for all of such prorated 2016 Notes. Following the Tender Offer, approximately $170 million aggregate principal amount of 2016 Notes remain outstanding.
