Zach Stewart Rumors
Braves Acquire Zach Stewart
The Braves have acquired right-hander Zach Stewart from the White Sox in exchange for cash considerations, according to the Chicago Tribune's Paul Sullivan (on Twitter).
Stewart spent 2013, his age-26 season, with Chicago's Triple-A affiliate, posting a 4.25 ERA with 6.6 K/9 and 2.0 BB/9 in 167 1/3 innings of work. Originally a third-round pick by the Reds in 2008, the Texas Tech product has found himself included in trades for a number of high-profile players over the past six years. The Reds dealt him to Toronto along with Edwin Encarnacion and Josh Roenicke in 2008 to acquire Scott Rolen. He was then part of the three-team deal that sent Edwin Jackson to the Cardinals in 2011, and he was acquired by the White Sox to the Red Sox in June 2012's Kevin Youkilis deal. Chicago picked him back up on waivers last offseason.
Stewart has 103 Major League innings under his belt, but he's posted a 6.82 ERA in that time. He's whiffed just 5.6 hitters per nine innings, but has also averaged just 1.9 walks per nine to go along with a strong 50 percent ground-ball rate in the bigs. Both xFIP and SIERA feel his ERA to date should be just a shade under 4.00 rather than at its current level.
Atlanta's acquisition of Stewart isn't entirely surprising; the team looks to be adding depth with Kris Medlen's health status up in the air (he'll undergo an MRI on his right forearm today) along with the possibility that Mike Minor could miss a start or two in April. Of course, Atlanta has in-house options such as Alex Wood, Freddy Garcia and David Hale that would presumably be in line for big league starts before Stewart, who is most likely ticketed for Triple-A. Stewart was not on Chicago's 40-man roster.

White Sox Outright Zach Stewart To Triple-A
Today's outright assignments..
- The White Sox have outrighted Zach Stewart to Triple-A Charlotte, according to Dan Hayes of CSNChicago (on Twitter). The move removes the right-hander off of the 40-man roster, which now stands at 39. Chicago claimed Stewart just last week.
Hahn On Viciedo, Pierzynski, Stewart
Earlier today, the White Sox hosted SoxFest 2013, an interactive event where fans got the opportunity to participate in a Q&A session with General Manager Rick Hahn. Executive Vice President and former GM Kenny Williams couldn't resist joining in and closed things out when he asked Hahn if he'll do a better job than his predecessor. Hahn responded by saying that the last GM had a better support staff in place (via White Sox on Twitter) and drew laughs from everyone in attendance. Here's more on the White Sox..
- Hahn said that the White Sox haven't shopped Dayan Viciedo but added that no one is untouchable, tweets Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune. It was reported last month that the White Sox discussed deals involving Viciedo and Alejandro De Aza.
- The GM was asked about the departure of A.J. Pierzynski and he explained that the money that would have gone to the catcher was instead re-routed to Jake Peavy, Jeff Keppinger, and Matt Lindstrom, tweets Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune. Hahn also expressed confidence in catcher Tyler Flowers' abilities.
- A fan asked Hahn about the decision to claim Zach Stewart off of waivers from the Pirates. The GM explained that Stewart adds depth to the team's pitching, cost the team very little, and has big league experience, Gonzales tweets. The White Sox's decision to pick up Stewart yesterday marked the second time that they have acquired the right-hander in two years.

White Sox Claim Zach Stewart
The White Sox claimed Zach Stewart off of waivers, MLBTR has learned. The Pirates had designated Stewart for assignment one week ago to create 40-man roster space for Jeff Karstens.
This marks the second time in two years that the White Sox have acquired Stewart. They traded for him and Jason Frasor in July of 2012, sending Edwin Jackson and Mark Teahen to Toronto. Stewart posted an 8.58 ERA with 4.8 K/9 and 1.0 BB/9 in 35 2/3 innings for the White Sox and Red Sox this past season. The Red Sox traded him to Pittsburgh in November, but he never threw a pitch for the Pirates.

Pirates Designate Zach Stewart For Assignment
The Pirates have designated Zach Stewart for assignment, according to MLB.com's official transactions page. The move was made in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Jeff Karstens, whom they signed earlier this week.
Stewart was acquired from the Red Sox for a player to be named later in late November. In 103 career major league innings at the MLB level, Stewart has a 6.82 ERA with 5.6 K/9 and 1.9 BB/9. He's no stranger to the pages of MLBTR, having been traded four times since being drafted by the Reds in 2008.
Pirates Acquire Zach Stewart
The Pirates acquired right-hander Zach Stewart from the Red Sox for a player to be named later, the teams announced. The Red Sox had designated Stewart for assignment on November 20th.
Stewart, 26, has pitched at the MLB level in both of the past two seasons. This is already the fourth time he has been traded since the Reds selected him in the third round of the 2008 draft. The Blue Jays acquired him in the deal that sent Scott Rolen to Cincinnati; Toronto traded him to the White Sox in the three-team trade that sent Colby Rasmus to the Blue Jays; the Red Sox acquired him in the deal that sent Kevin Youkilis to Chicago. In 103 innings at the MLB level, Stewart has a 6.82 ERA with 5.6 K/9 and 1.9 BB/9.

Red Sox Designate Five Players For Assignment
The Red Sox have designated third baseman Danny Valencia, infielder Ivan De Jesus and right-handed pitchers Sandy Rosario, David Carpenter and Zach Stewart for assginment, according to a team press release.
All five players were acquired by the Red Sox within the last year and De Jesus, Carpenter and Stewart were small pieces of some of Boston's biggest trades of the season. De Jesus was picked up as part of the blockbuster deal with the Dodgers in August, Carpenter came from the Blue Jays as part of the John Farrell trade package, and Stewart as part of the deal that sent Kevin Youkilis to the White Sox in June. Valencia, meanwhile, was picked up in a trade with the Twins in August while Rosario was picked up off waivers from the Marlins last month.

Kevin Youkilis Trade Reactions
The Red Sox agreed to send Kevin Youkilis and cash to the White Sox for Zach Stewart and Brent Lillibridge in a deal that was announced earlier today. The trade provides the White Sox with much needed stability at the hot corner and gives the Red Sox the opportunity to play Will Middlebrooks on a daily basis. Here are some reactions to the deal:
- The emergence of Middlebrooks as a legitimate Rookie of the Year candidate made a struggling Youkilis expendable in the eyes of the Red Sox front office, writes Brian MacPherson of The Providence Journal.
- Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington told reporters, including MacPherson, that it was pretty clear Middlebrooks needed to be in the lineup every day (via Twitter).
- The White Sox are getting a player in Youkilis who was an All-Star third baseman last season in exchange for cash and two replaceable players, tweets Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports.com.
- The legacy of Youkilis was built upon his ability to will himself into a player who far exceeded his natural talents, says Scott Miller of CBSSports.com.
- The Indians, Dodgers and White Sox were the finalists for Youkilis as of Saturday evening, reports Rob Bradford of WEEI.com. The White Sox separated themselves Sunday morning with the inclusion of Stewart in the trade.
- By acquiring Youkilis, the White Sox are making the statement that the Tigers are vulnerable and not a guarantee to win the division, tweets Joel Sherman of the New York Post.
- White Sox manager Robin Ventura expects Youkilis to be a strong fit with Chicago given how the veteran plays hard and has a reputation as a good teammate (video link).
- A change of scenery for Youkilis may prove to benefit the former All-Star considering his strained relationship with manager Bobby Valentine and the series of injuries that kept him off the field, writes Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald.

White Sox Acquire Kevin Youkilis
The White Sox have acquired Kevin Youkilis and cash from the Red Sox in exchange for pitcher Zach Stewart and utility player Brent Lillibridge, both teams announced. Ken Rosenthal of FoxSports.com tweets the cash being exchanged is slightly more than $5.5MM.
Youkilis is hitting .225/.311/.359 in 41 games this season while appearing in 32 games at third base and 13 at first base. He will be an immediate updgrade at third base for the White Sox, who entered the day with a .466 OPS from the position, worst in baseball. Orlando Hudson has been manning third for the White Sox since Brent Morel landed on the disabled list. Hudson has produced a line of just .167/.247/.286 in his 27 games on the South Side.
Youkilis made his final appearance as a member of the Red Sox today going 2-for-4 with one run batted in. Youkilis was removed in the bottom of the 7th inning to a standing ovation from the Fenway Park faithful. This will not be his last game at Fenway, however, as the White Sox will play a series there on July 16-19.
Stewart, a right-hander, has appeared in 18 games, including one start, for the White Sox this year. Stewart has a 6.00 ERA, 4.8 K/9, and 1.2 BB/9 this season. The 25-year-old was acquired last year by the White Sox in the Edwin Jackson trade with the Blue Jays. Stewart will report to Triple-A Pawtucket.
Lillibridge has appeared in left field, center field, first base, third base, and designated hitter for the White Sox this year with a batting line of .175/.232/.190 in 48 games. Lillibridge is a .215/.283/.358 hitter during his five-year career with the White Sox and Braves. To make room on the 40-man roster for Lillibridge, the Red Sox designated left fielder Oscar Tejada for assignment.
Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com and ESPN's Jim Bowden first tweeted news of the trade. David Kaplan of CSNChicago.com was the first to report Stewart was going to Boston while Heyman broke Lillibridge's inclusion.

Trade Reaction: Rasmus, Jackson, White Sox
On the off-chance you missed it, the Blue Jays, Cardinals and White Sox announced a pair of major trades today. The Blue Jays acquired center fielder Colby Rasmus and pitchers Trever Miller, Brian Tallet, and P.J. Walters from the Cardinals for starter Edwin Jackson, relievers Marc Rzepczynski and Octavio Dotel, outfielder Corey Patterson, and three players to be named later or cash considerations. Before completing the deal with St. Louis, the Blue Jays acquired Jackson and third baseman Mark Teahen from the White Sox for reliever Jason Frasor and prospect Zach Stewart. Here's reaction to the trades from around MLB. Be warned, Cardinals fans, you might not like what follows…
- The price the Cardinals paid to acquire Jackson and bullpen help was "just too high," according to ESPN.com's Keith Law, who suggests St. Louis' internal emphasis is on manager Tony La Russa, not the players. Law loves what Toronto did and doesn't understand Chicago's move.
- Jim Bowden of ESPN says the Cardinals had better win this year "or they will really regret this one." He calls St. Louis' move the "worst trade of the year" and gives the Blue Jays an 'A.'
- Joel Sherman of the New York Post confirms that the Cardinals turned down the Rays' offer of Jeff Niemann and J.P. Howell for Rasmus (Twitter link). Sherman suggests the Cardinals would have been better off accepting Tampa Bay's offer.
- The Giants showed how to go for it today and the Cardinals showed how not to go for it, Yahoo's Jeff Passan writes.
- A longtime scout tells ESPN.com's Buster Olney that Rasmus has a chance to be a star. "I don't understand that deal at all," the scout said (Twitter link).
- Matthew Leach of MLB.com likes what the Cardinals got for 2011, but finds it hard to like the deal for St. Louis because of what it means for 2012-14 (Twitter link).
- Now that Rasmus and Carlos Beltran are off of the market, the list of teams with possible interest in B.J. Upton is taking shape, as Marc Topkin of the St. Petersburg Times explains. The Braves, Indians, Nationals, Phillies, Pirates and Reds are possible destinations for Upton.
- As Matt Eddy of Baseball America explains, Walters should qualify for a fourth option year in 2012 and Rzepczynski "might be the prototype" pupil for Cards pitching coach Dave Duncan.
- Joe Pawlikowski of FanGraphs explains that it's easiest to see the trade from the Blue Jays' perspective, since they gave up three relievers and a prospect for a player who can help them contend for 2012-14.
- At CloserNews, Dan Mennella wonders if Kyle McClellan could be in line for some saves, now that he's back in the bullpen.
- Tim Dierkes wrote earlier today that "it's hard to see this as anything but a win for the Blue Jays."
- I agree with Tim and many of the others above- it's a win for the Blue Jays. Let's not forget how much has to be in place for this kind of deal to happen: a creative GM who reads the market well, payroll flexibility (for Teahen's contract), willingness from ownership to take on salary, enough appealing prospects to be able to part with Stewart and enough bullpen depth to send three quality relievers packing on the same day. This trade doesn't seem simple and in some ways it may actually be more complicated that it appears.

Are you getting a jump start on planning 2013 content and marketing? Before you do, check out our 6 SEO predictions for 2013 and what they mean to your business.
2013 SEO Prediction 1: SEO will focus on content and data
"Content marketing" and "big data" are two of the key buzzwords we hear over & over as 2012 ends. More people are producing content (infographics) based on this big data. Our first SEO prediction is that these two search marketing terms will make their way into the mainstream and most businesses that succeed in 2013 will have a "content marketing strategy" even if they call it something slightly different.
Content marketing works because it is real and it relates to what you are doing. Creating content is not always the "easy" way out, but that's why search engines prefer it. If you rehash, curate and don't create anything new, what have you contributed to the conversation? Search is about finding what's new and relevant, unique and powerful (social influence.) Search is always about content in some way, but our prediction is that everyone's content will start moving away from social sites and back to the main sites the info used to be on. Resurgence in blogging (tumblr included) will help content get seen. Growing your audience on your own branded site will help businesses move away from Facebook.
2013 SEO Prediction 2: Authorship, Guest blogging will change for the better
Right, so Google hates when anyone spams and ruins a good thing, right? They then figure out how to counter it. On page keywords, anchor text, linkbuilding, now guest blogging. SEO will start to focus on authorship – claiming that you wrote a piece and linking it to your overall online profile. Sure, spammers will keep doing this, in a way, but we expect Authorship results to increase in 2013, as well as guest blogs nearly always being linked to your author profile on G+. You can write for High on SEO, Moz or Search Engine Land, but eventually all your profiles should link back to one authorship link, one G+ profile.
Guest blogging does not have to be spammy. We had guest bloggers in the past who we know from other sites and they've written excellent articles. We've also been inundated with spammy requests for guest blog posts. One of our main goals in 2013 is to publish guest blogs on YouMoz, Marketing Pilgrim and a few other select places. Interesting, relevant articles by guest bloggers will always be a bonus for your site. Based on this SEO prediction, that will be a useful goal for our business.
2013 SEO Prediction 3: Google+, Finally
Are you following High on SEO or Matt on Google+? Go do that first.
While many people expect G+ to never catch Facebook or Twitter, we would suggest that Google isn't going away. Google+ isn't a side project like Buzz or Wave. It's not an acquisition. Google has invested a lot of manpower into G+. As Guy Kawasaki said in "What the Plus?," "It's not an experiment or project buried within another business unit. The guy who runs Google+, Vic Gundotra, reports directly to Larry Page, the CEO of Google."
Why use G+? Instant indexing, for one. Many of our G+ links are instantly indexed on Google after the bot comes to visit. These hits happened immediately after we published a new post. You can customize these links and associated words, and the words on all the posts you make should contribute to the "what you talk about" portion of any possible search help. We already know that posting a link on Facebook gets an instant hit from their search bot. G+ shows a 3 minute delay to get indexed into Google. We've seen it faster before. Many of our G+ links are indexed in the main database within minutes unlike a post we don't put on G+ that may take a day or two.
2013 SEO Prediction 4: Link Disavow Tool and Negative SEO
This year has certainly seen a rise in "negative SEO" talk. Is negative SEO possible? Yes, very possible. Given enough time and resources, a low quality domain can be beat up pretty badly by a savvy SEO company or your competitor.
Google created the Link Disavow Tool to collect data & links. SEO prediction 4? They will use it in 2013 to release an algorithm using the links that have been submitted. Think of the Google engineers rubbing their hands together with everyone's spammy link profiles. "Oh, you think all these are bad. Good to know." We have to disavow in order to recover, we end up giving away all this valuable information to Google. Now, they'll use that information in 2013 to improve spam reporting and poor quality backlinks. In the past, having a healthy link profile meant some low, some mid, some high quality links. Will that change? We'll see. The death of forum profile spam, blog comment spam and article spam would be a huge benefit to the entire www. except those few people who run businesses based on spam.
2013 SEO Prediction 5: SEO ~~~ Digital Marketing
We saw this one coming and actually changed our own SEO and digital marketing services earlier this year. Digital marketing is slowly becoming its own "thing" encompassing content creation, Adwords & ppc marketing, SEO & search engine marketing, conversion rate optimization and social media. We have tools to measure CRO, analytics to track on-site metrics, and sites like TwentyFeet and HootSuite to help us with social media in a professional capacity.
The next evolution of this digital marketing is for more big brands to jump on board. Our 2013 prediction is that many more brands and small businesses will jump into this media with both feet. We'll see more C-level digital marketing jobs open up and more influence by the digital team for branding, content and direction of entire companies. SEO will join the mix and teams will change from web+seo // marketing + social = brand to web + seo + social + sem + ppc + marketing = brand.
2013 SEO Prediction 6: Other Marketing Growth Predictions
This one's easy. Other areas of increased importance and use will include: Mobile (tablet SEO, iphone ecommerce, etc.), Local (G+, Foursquare, Yelp, citation based SEO), and video/multimedia. Dai.ly, Youtube, and even more video ads. As users continue to evolve how they search, SEO and marketers will focus on being in those places and picking up on that new traffic.
So those are our six SEO predictions for 2013. Do you think we're right? Way off base? Do you have your own predictions?

What issues are important for candidates to address?
albertclawson (2660357) writes | more than 2 years ago
albertclawson writes "My name is Albert Clawson and I am running for the Michigan State House of Representatives in the 39th district. There is a primary election in August, 2012 with the general election in November.
In all elections there is much focus on jobs, the economy, fiscal policies — as it should be — but I feel that candidates often ignore the technological issues that are so important in today's digital age: I feel like I am the only candidate who takes these issues seriously enough to make them a part of his campaign. I would like to present my thoughts and am asking you, readers of slashdot to help me add, subtract and refine my positions.
First, I must say that many issues that are important to me are beyond the spheres of state candidates. I oppose SOPA and CISPA for example, but as these are issues at the federal level I'm not sure what — if anything — can be done at a state level. I favor net neutrality (but am also in favor of keeping things deregulated — a suitable carrot must be found). I have a major problem with patent trolls, object to DMCA takedown abuse, Any thoughts or suggestions on what can be done at the state level on these issues will be greatly appreciated.
In the interest of brevity in my posting here I give a brief sketch of issues that are important to me and will open the post to any questions that you might have:
* Any and all obstacles to an increase in broadband penetration must be removed. Any broadband provider currently receiving any subsidies for rural development must produce results or lose those subsidies. Providers who refuse to provide services to various areas yet take action to block anybody else from building out in those areas should be thwarted in their efforts.
* Modern schools should teach modern classes. Any student who has the interest should be able to graduate high school with CCNA certification (or others). For that matter, the educational system should be revamped to allow students to graduate HS with certifications of LPN, journeyman plumber/electrician/carpenter/other or other backgrounds that allow them to immediately enter the workplace should they deem college as not a viable (or desirable) option.
* State laws must keep up with modern technology. It is an absolute embarrassment that Michigan still has not addressed the question of autonomous vehicles while Nevada is already issuing test/experimental licenses for them to operate on public roads. Zoning laws may need to be updated to allow for microfabrication processes that are appropriate for commercial districts where they might technically be required to be performed in industrial districts.
* Emergency response plans must include specific plans to utilize the best and most modern technology that is reasonably possible. The use of location-aware emergency alerting technology (to issue explicit warnings to display on cell phones that are directly in the path of a storm or chemical spill for example),
* We must look toward revising energy policies. I am a fan of thorium technology, advocate residential solar and low-head hydroelectric and believe that residential building code should be revised to ensure that new construction has the wiring roughed in place to allow for painless installation of charging stations in the garages/driveways as homeowners buy vehicles that need charging.
* We must consider new and novel solutions for all problems, no matter how unorthodox. A prime example is the recent development of what is essentially silly putty to patch potholes.
There are many other issues, this first post can only scratch the surface — I want to open everything up for discussion. I don't have all the answers, but I believe that we can find all of the answers together."

Acclaimed Jamaican deejay and producer, Imperial has called on disc jocks in his native Jamaica to stop showing bias and prejudice after insisting they slighted a song he produced for Dancehall artist, Mr. Peppa, that has since been remixed by Payday Music Group.
The song in question is Gangster Gorilla, a song written by Imperial that Mr. Peppa voiced in 2010 on the Motion Picture Juggling rhythm, for which a medley video promoting it topped local charts. However, the song received little airplay back home, to his frustration. An alleged remake of the song, which sees Mr. Peppa team up with Bounty Killer on the Party Spree Riddim, has been garnering regular rotation on radio, something he noticed when traveling to Jamaica earlier this month to promote his new album, Dancehall Knowledge: Volume 3.
Speaking on Thursday, Imperial accuses disc jockeys in Jamaica of playiing the political card too often, making it hard for wide-ranging talents like himself to gain mainstream traction.

Ford Ranger Starting Problems
98rangerv6 Posts: 1
donnap1 Posts: 1I am glad that I found your forum. We purchased a 2008 Ford Ranger 3 months ago, everything was good until it got cold outside. As soon as the temperature is around 0% C. the truck turns over but won't start. (usually have to try 3-4 times before it finally starts, then runs well, as soon as the engine gets cold, same thing, won't start)
It has been in the shop more in the last month then at home.
The dealership so far has replaced the fuel pump, fuse panel, a few relays, new computer and still when it is cold the truck won't start. We took it back again today. The dealer seems to be running out of options.
We are starting to think we truly have a lemon, any thoughts?
Thanks Donna -
j_denison Posts: 1hey i have a 99 ford ranger 3.0 v6 flex fuel that is doing the same thing, not starting and i replace the crank sensor , checked the coil pack, the battery is good,,,, i have no clue what it is i'm about to try a new key and see if that works. did you ever find out the problem with yours? please respond
stoner007 Posts: 1It is getting worst as it is getting colder out... Would just not start but crank.... Almost doesn't seem like its getting fuel or something... It would take me about 15 mins to 20 mins at times to get it started.... Attempting to crank and waiting... At first ... I'd smell alot of gas when I'd get it started ... but not so much anymore... Sometimes pressing down the accelerator helps.... Sounds like its beginning to struggle every time now starting up and the idle seems a bit low.... Any suggestions on getting this fix?? What should I try first?
Thanks -

hubbles Posts: 3The key buzzer is problem in many rangers including the 2000, the catch is you can't check it till you get the lock cylinder out which you can't do without turning the key. Take a normal metal key (not one of the plastic PATS keys) but one that is 100% metal and put it in the ignition. Then take a hammer or wrench and tap the key (not too hard) from lots of different angles, and try turning it occasionally, once it turns either start the truck or switch to your PATS key that you need to start it. You can then follow the rest of the procedure in the service manual for removing the lock core/buzzer switches.
bolivar Posts: 2,316Fords are notorious for jamming the ignition so the key will not turn. Assuming this is an automatic transmission.
Do you know what I am talking about? If the car is stopped while parked on any incline at all and allowed to roll forward or backwards, the next time you put the key in, it may not turn.
You will have to pull strongly on the steering wheel in one direction or the other to make the steering wheel lock-up linkages free up enough to turn the key. Usually you need to turn the direction where there is no 'play' at all in the steering.
If you already knew about this, and have already tried this, I think you are going to be going into the key and lock cylinder in the steering column. -
mtnjim Posts: 2Last Friday I drove my 98 Ranger (5 speed manual trans) to work. After work, I ran a couple of errands then drove home. And parked in my driveway right behind my car. Sunday I go out to move the truck so I can drive my car to work Monday. Stick the key in and....nothing. The dome light doesn't come on, no starter, no headlights. The first thing that crosses my mind is someone stole the battery, but I open the hood and it's sitting right there. Stick a multimeter on it and it is fine, plenty of juice. I checked the fuses and they are OK. So the question is what could cause a truck sitting in a driveway to loose all power? :mad: Any ideas??
harryp44 Posts: 1I have a 2003 Ford Ranger XLT with 45,000. In the last week my mechanic has installed 2 fuel pumps and a new battery. He thought the first pump he installed was bad since it died at 65 mph on a busy interstate so he installed another one along with a new battery. After having it one day, it left me stranded again after only driving 10 miles.It wont turn over. Any ideas?
dawui Posts: 1Came home from work on Wednesday night, the truck ran fine as always. Came out Thursday morning to go to work, turned the key, and it was idling as if someone had crossed all the spark plug wires. I checked them, they are all right. cleaned the contacts in the distributor cap and the rotor. Put new plugs in and nothing changed. Any suggestions? 1986 Ranger 2.9L 6 cyl Thxs in advance

peloquinac Posts: 4Have a 2003 4L V6 Automatic with new battery that won't hold a charge. Truck has been in storage for the last couple years, but it was started and made a few short trips while being stored. The alarm system is what killed the old battery but it is now disarmed. I've recharged the new battery and can go about a day and a half without losing enough power for it not to click the solenoid but not start. The alternator will charge the battery. Any idea what might be drawing down the battery?
bolivar Posts: 2,316Is this an aftermarket security system? If so, 'disarming' doesn't take it out of the system. I would try to totally remove it.
Problems like this is why I would never install an aftermarket security system or remote start. Their components and/or crappy connections break down and cause lots of problems as time goes by.... -
peloquinac Posts: 4No, It was installed when the vehicle was new. I've charged the battery and have pulled the fuses for the alarm to see if that makes any difference. I've also found where all the wires on the security system lead to except the door unlock. Any ideas?
I also agree not to instal a security sytem. I've had two vehicles with them and had nothing but trouble with them. Never again. -
bolivar Posts: 2,316Was it a factory install or dealer install? Dealer install is just as bad as getting one at the local electronics or sound store.
Otherwise, you are going to have to go into the 'usual' search for a power drain.
Get a ampmeter that can handle 2 or 3 or more amps. Pull a fuse and put the ampmeter across the fuse contacts until you find the circuit that is pulling a big amp load. This just narrows the problem down to one circuit.
Or get a Test Lamp that can also handle a couple of amps thru it. Pull one cable from the battery and wire the test lamp in series from the loose cable to the battery. The lamp should light up. Start pulling fuses until the light goes out, or dims down a lot. Again this just narrows the problem down to a circuit.
To do further testing may just be guesswork of unplugging various things in this questionable circuit. Looking for pinched wires, etc.
Finding what is draining a battery can be one of the toughest problems in a car. In may cases, a factory shop manual with wiring schemetic will be necessary.
A tech that is a 'mechanic' and knows little about electronics may not be able to do this.
P.S. If you have a sticking relay, the above testing may not work. Removing the power to a stuck relay, when you pull a fuse or remove battery cable, might cause it to reset correctly and then you will not be able to see the drain on a meter.
Good luck. Finding a power drain is tough. I had a Caddy that would kill a battery in 2 days. Dealer did find it - replaced the radio/cassette/CD player. This probably was a thousand dollar part. Happy it was under warranty. -
peloquinac Posts: 4Thanks, great info. The alarm is a ford vehicle alarm but installed by the dealer. I had pulled all the fuses and looked for arching across the positive terminal on the battery. That didn't reveal anything so I've pulled the fuses on the alarm and left it hooked to the battery to see if I get the same drain. Thanks again for the help.
P.S. Any idea where to find a wiring diagram for a 2003 Ford Ranger. I'm thinking of yanking the security system. -

The Future of the Murdoch Media Empire (Video)
March 26 (Bloomberg) -- Rupert Murdoch's eldest son, Lachlan, is back in contention for control of the family's global media empire, propelled by closer ties with his father and insulation from a business scandal that tarnished the reputation of younger brother James two years ago. Edmund Lee has more on the future of the Murdoch media empire on Bloomberg Television's "Street Smart." (Source: Bloomberg)

16th May, 1929
(Due to arrive Canberra 15.6.29)
My dear P.M.,
I am almost entirely immersed in a flood of business Connected with the Antarctic Expedition. J.K. Davis [1] is a pleasant fellow but he has left all the business to me, other than that connected with the outfitting of the ship. The negotiation of the press rights alone has involved my seeing a dozen people to learn my way about through the pitfalls.
I send another letter by this mail on Reparations. A good, brief summary of the position up to February of this year is given in the R.I.I.A. Journal for May, in the form of an address by the Hon. R. H. Brand. [2] This is on file in the External Affairs Department.
The practical position, as I see it, is as follows.
Apart from the inhuman proposal of Owen Young [3] that Great Britain should forego some part of her share under the Spa percentages [4], it appears to me that there has been rather an academic atmosphere about the Experts' meetings.
Until a year ago, America was lending money to Germany at a rate greater than Germany's reparation payments under the Dawes Plan.
[5] Hence no exchange difficulties with regard to transfers were met. American money practically ceased to enter Germany about a year ago, and Germany has had, in consequence, to export gold and to raise her Bank rate, and the mark began to tremble until outside support was sought.
No solution to the great difficulties of transfer, according to the people with whom I have talked, has yet been proposed, unless the functions of the proposed International Bank are to achieve this in some hitherto unknown manner.
The reason for the slackening off (and eventually practically ceasing) of American loan money to Germany is a matter for conjecture. It is probably a combination of domestic American reasons due to high money rates in New York, together with a certain uneasiness on the part of the United States as to the German position.
The letters and papers of Sir Joseph Banks, connected with the very early days in Australia, were sold for over 7,000 at Sotheby's this week. I found that the Mitchell Library and the Commonwealth had jointly sent a representative to London for the sale and he secured practically the whole lot. I only discovered this at the last moment, as I had discussed with J. M. Niall [6] the necessity, in the interests of the Commonwealth, that he should secure them in the absence of any accredited Commonwealth buyer. He was willing to do so but I was able to 'call him off' at the last moment. It was a big price to pay and I don't know where the bidding came from as the British Museum had generously agreed not to compete. I cannot imagine any other collection of a few dozen letters of only 120 years old that would have brought such a price.
The fortuitous coincidence of the Queensland election surprise and the launching of the Commonwealth-Queensland Loan in London was fortunate. [7]
I had to speak after Dougal Malcolm [8] at a private Dining Club dinner this week, on Australia-but he spoke for 1 1/2 hours and reduced everyone to pulp. He is rather humourless, although a pleasant fellow.
The question of the simplification of departmental control over the Middle and Near East is being investigated here. It has got rather broadcast, as the Foreign Office, Colonial Office, Air Ministry and India Office all have fingers in the pie, with the result that no one quite knows the limits of responsibility of each department.
Poliakoff ('Times' Diplomatic Correspondent) came to see me this week. His contribution of the moment towards the betterment of Angle-American relations and the naval situation is that Great Britain should voluntarily give up her naval bases in the Caribbean Sea. The suggestion of giving up anything more makes one, at first thought, rather hot under the collar, but on second thoughts it isn't so bad as it sounds. I haven't had time to think about the implications or talk to anyone-but just give it to you as the brainwave of the moment.
I enclose a short but delightful series of articles in the 'Times' (6th to 10th May) by Walter Elliot [9] on the Empire, in the Kipling manner. It may not be entirely fortuitous that he takes a colonial topic at this time.
I saw a good deal of Wilkins [10] while he was here, and, to my great surprise, was able to be instrumental in getting him a virtual promise of 10,000 from the 'Discovery' Committee [11] towards the funds for his coming season's operations in the Antarctic. Before I started work on them, I should have said that there wasn't a hope of squeezing anything appreciable out of them- but they fell for the idea, and morally committed themselves in quick time. This will mean that instead of doing the long flight (2,000 miles) from Graham Land to the Ross Sea in one jump and with no support, he will now be able to have a ship in the offing to come to his aid if necessary -in other words, he is able to assure himself of another chance of life.
Even if I were not so taken up with Antarctic work, there would not be much to tell you in this period, as the impending election has paralysed everybody and very little is going on otherwise.
I am, Yours sincerely, R.G. CASEY

Financial Resources —Did you know that there are many financial resources that can help people living with breast cancer? Find out more
Voices of Impact™ — Join us here as we continue to share stories that celebrate the women and men who inspire us all.
Susan G. Komen fought breast cancer with her heart, body and soul. Throughout her diagnosis, treatments, and endless days in the hospital, she spent her time thinking of ways to make life better for other women battling breast cancer instead of worrying about her own situation. Moved by Susan's compassion for others and commitment to making a difference, Nancy G. Brinker promised her sister that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer.
Though Susan lost her battle with the disease, her legacy lives on through the work of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, the organization Nancy started in her honor. Komen for the Cure is the global leader of the breast cancer movement, having invested more than $1 billion since its inception in 1982. Komen's promise is to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
Across the country, that promise is upheld by a network of 122 local Affiliate offices. At the heart of each Affiliate is a person or group of people who, like Susan, wanted to make a difference.
The Arkansas Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure was incorporated in 1992 by Terri DeSio, Pat McClelland and Pat Torvestad. Since its founding, the Arkansas Affiliate has held 18 Komen Races for the Cure ® in downtown Little Rock, welcoming women, men and children from throughout the state.
The Komen Arkansas Race has had 18 races and has distributed more than $11 million throughout the state, funding grants and educational programs which have provided support and information (focused on early detection) to thousands of Arkansas women and their families.
The Race provides an opportunity to honor breast cancer survivors and to remember those who have lost the battle. Of the money raised through the Race, 75 percent stays in Arkansas to fund educational programs, while the remaining 25 percent funds national research grants.
The Arkansas Affiliate has become a powerful voice for change through the passage of the Breast Cancer Act of 1997 which provides funding for the promotion of breast cancer awareness, mammograms, and treatment. A member of the Arkansas Affiliate Foundation board of directors serves as a member of the state Breast Cancer Advisory Board which oversees the funding provided by the legislation.

To show me the real Testaccio, my friend Flavio takes me to the kind of place that used to proliferate throughout Rome—an "old man bar" where a euro-and-a-half will pay for a mezzo litro of the most common Frascati wine. In this much too bright Formica canteen on Via Galileo Ferraris, senior Testaccini with the kind of features that used to inspire foreign painters (one missing an eye, the other a slice of nose) and who speak only the local dialect, play cards and scarf down prosciutto. Like most of Flavio's own family, they are retirees from the slaughterhouse, and one can certainly say these gentlemen are rooted in place. I literally have to climb over a patron, muttering "Permesso, permesso," to get to my seat.
The slaughterhouse is gone, but its spirit lives on in the Testaccio covered market, acknowledged by many to be the best in Rome. The tomato man with the ponytail and corncob teeth will explain which tomatoes go with which kind of pasta. At the Pasta all'Uovo shop there are ravioli and tortellini di zucca (with pumpkin), which are like little wrapped gifts you give yourself. The fishmonger at La Boutique del Pesce serenades his tuna, "Tonno bello, tonno bello," while a neighboring stand shows off anchovies with blood-red heads and live eels kicking their last. "How good is my fish?" asks the fishmonger rhetorically. It's not bad at all.
Flavio's uncle Cesare and aunt Delia run a butcher stand in the northwest corner of the market. Chummy, smiling Cesare in his butcher's smock and woolly cap is a huge Beatles fan, and keeps a magnet depicting the group and a picture of himself as a youngster in a Beatles-esque band behind the counter. The family stand has been around since 1918, he tells me over a display of little skinned rabbits and a glossy, beautiful lamb's head. The loose, fatty salsicce he sells practically dribble over the tongue. For a helping of vegetables, I head for the nearby stands stacked with perfectly shaped lunar-domed mushrooms and fresh zucchini flowers, which look like giant tulips and taste like paradise after a short bout of frying.
A dedicated aficionado of Roman cuisine would do well to rent an apartment near the market, supplementing the fresh produce with trips to the famed Volpetti deli on Via Marmorata. Inside Volpetti's cramped premises, meats, cheeses, olive oils, and other edibles gather from across Italy to tantalize and overwhelm the casual visitor. On this trip, we assemble a sweet-and-peppery basket of gorgonzola piccante, boar sausages no bigger than my thumb, and a spicy 'nduja, a salami from Calabria that tastes like an angrier, in-your-face cousin of the French andouille.
After gorging is complete, a walk to the pleasant grounds of the Cimitero Acattolico (better known as the Protestant Cemetery) is in order. Built outside the city walls in accordance with Vatican strictures against burying non-Catholics within the city, the cemetery is a peaceful collection of souls of all denominations, a quiet, sun-dappled oasis of palms and cypresses where the diversity of the entombed speaks of Rome's centrality to the world. Here are the graves of prominent Americans, Russian royalty, Rome-besotted Muslims and Jews, and, of course, the daisy-strewn grave of Shelley in the shadow of the outlandish Cestius pyramid. Lovers of Keats can also bid their farewell here, while leftists should, against their better judgment, take the path to the right, where they will find the simple grave of Antonio Gramsci, the father of Italian communism. Wherever you turn, cats glower at you from their tombstone perches, and the sweet rot of flowers and serenity reign. This is the only place that I've ever visited—other than the Garden State Mall in Paramus—that has made the cessation of life seem appealing.
But dinner approaches, and it is time to rejoin the living. This is where the vegetarian reader may want to part company with me for a while. Testaccio's trattorias will not win any awards for ambience and décor, but these noisy, overlit places offer an encounter with an animal that you will find in few places. I spend an entire week eating in almost every restaurant in the neighborhood and grilling, so to speak, the natives on their favorite choices. The talk of the hood is Da Felice, which once looked like a cafeteria with fluorescent lighting but is now a typically Euro-smooth wood-and-brick joint. The owner used to be ridiculously selective, refusing entrance to anyone who didn't look as if he or she had just tussled with an ox or happened to be Roberto Benigni, who lives nearby. Now Da Felice is no longer selective and the food has gone south. Only Roberto Benigni remains, eating quietly with his wife, his trademark goofy face floating above his pasta. The one bright spot is the creamy, voluptuous artichoke. As for the dry veal roll, I almost choke. "Benigni's gonna beat you up if you don't finish," the waiter scolds me. It's a chance I'm willing to take.

Why The Other Woman Doesn't Matter
By GalTime .com
He is the one who was married, the one who took vows, the person who lied, cheated and sometimes, even steals to see his unfaithfulness through. Why aren't we looking harder at him? And why aren't we seeing below the surface?
If someone cheats, it is a symptom of a much bigger illness. It's not just because he's married to a size 14 and a size 6 comes along. It is because something else is fractured and it can feel relatively easy to heal (or at least numb the pain) to wedge a new and exciting person there. This doesn't make it OK. It just shows it is a more massive thing than sex with someone else. Even if it is sex with a very hot someone ele.
The marriage may not survive the symptom of infidelity nor the critical illness that is a part of for the couple. Sometimes, the married people work it out. Sometimes the relationship with the other woman lasts. Regardless, the mistress matters very little. It's the bigger diagnosis more of us should examine.
What do you think?

Clear and cold this morning, apple and plum blooming and pear trying to finish up.

Not good news at all. You can cut open pears in a couple days and see if they are brown in the center. The fruit in bloom may be able to take 26. |
Harvestman - my earlier pears aren't brown inside and they're growing, but they have a lot of external damage - cracks and frost rings. Do you think they'll be edible? Or should I get rid of them now? |
- Posted by harvestman 6 (My Page) on Fri, May 11, 12 at 13:19
It, I have no idea- this is my first experience in 23 years of fruit growing in the northeast with this kind of frost damage. I've never had frost rings and didn't get them this year. This is, by far, my worst fruit year ever. Nearby neighbors in spots usually as cold didn't suffer my damage. My wife thinks it's vodoo, my son suspects Karma and I ask "why can't it be both?". |
I can't tell what's going on yet, but first appearances is that almost nothing has changed. Many blossoms still look fine, although a few on the pear are dark in the center. Much of the apple has yet to bloom, and the blooms that are there seem happy enough. Similarly on the plum. Best case scenario? I might not have to thin much. Worst case? I don't want to think about it. So it goes. At least I didn't quit my day job ... |
Um, yeah, it was 26 here two weeks ago this upcoming Sunday morning. Results are NOT pretty. I found one peach and one pear growing so far, and a handful of sour cherries. I haven't found a viable apple yet. One thing I wonder -- my shellbark hickory that was badly hit on the lower limbs is considerably greener with far less damage high in the canopy -- overall height at this age is about 1 1/2 times the height of the utility poles. I am curious to see if some fruit was spared on the highest limbs of standard apple and pear trees? They aren't nearly as tall as this hickory, but perhaps there is a little hope. I am still going to spray this weekend, just in case .... |

President's narrative
"We began in Vietnam to help inaugurate the new class of Shidler EMBA students and to appear on two APEC workshop panels, one in Hanoi and one in Ho Chi Minh City promoting business and investment opportunities in the APEC region. These were each attended by more than 150 to 180 of the top local business people in the respective cities and provided some preparation and context for APEC and how these CEOs might benefit from attending. There was extensive media coverage in print, on TV and online throughout Vietnam of these events and all considered them extremely successful.
"It was also my high honor and privilege to, along with Gov. Neil Abercrombie and Maui Mayor Alan Arakawa, lead the Worldwide Uchinanchu Festival Eve Parade—the largest gathering of Okinawans in the world; receive an honorary degree from the University of the Ryukyus in Okinawa; and plant a cherry blossom tree along with Ryukyus University President Teruo Iwamasa on university grounds as a gift from the University of Hawaii. Former Regent Ed Kuba and fellow Okinawan Goodwill Ambassador Bob Nakasone were a tremendous help to us during our trip!
"We presented a beautiful small glass-enclosed replica of the Hawaiian voyaging canoe Hokulea to President Iwamasa, as a gift signifying 'One Ocean, One People' for the people of the University of the Ryukyus.
"Our Hawaiian protocol team traveling with us offered moving oli and hula presentations at the appropriate places we were guests. Thank you to Keawe Lopes, Kekai Avilez and Kaiulani Kanehailua of the Hawaiinuiakea College of Hawaiian Knowledge at UH Manoa for accompanying us and representing our host culture so movingly!
"We also met with the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology officials to foster a relationship with this new institution and to provide for possible exchanges with our faculty, students and researchers in areas where we can collaborate."
The president also
• Congratulated Vice President for Student Affairs Lui Hokoana, named state Manager of the Year.
• Thanked regents for their time and Executive Vice President Linda Johnsrud and her staff for their efforts in development and passage of the new tuition schedule.
• Recognized her APEC advisor Denise Konan and assistant Keala Monaco for their part in coordinating with the Hawaii Host Committee on volunteer training and communication activities.
• Announced plans to sign a statement of intent with PACOM and other key players in the R-3 Initiative to promote improved risk, recovery and resiliency throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
• Provided an update on progress of the Kuali Financial Systems project.
• Announced award of a contract for construction of the $41.6 million Information Technology Center, which will house critical enterprise IT resources in a sustainable and secure manner, create the university's first true emergency situation room and free desperately needed surge space on the Manoa campus to help address the deferred repair and maintenance backlog.
• Welcomed nine members of the first-ever Community College Faculty and Administrator Exchange program with Indonesia, hosted by Kapiolani Community College through an award from the U.S. State Department's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.

Tucked northwest of Sardis Lake just above John W. Kyle State Park, Mallard Pointe Golf Course showcases undulating bermuda-grass fairways that offer sweeping views of the area's towering trees. Designed by Bob Cupp, the course's layout challenges players with back-to-back par 5s on the lengthy 6th and 7th holes, as well as on the 10th and 16th holes, requiring players to break at least once for s'mores while trekking from tee to green. Before hitting the fairways, swingers can take advantage of an extensive practice area consisting of a 350-yard driving range with six target greens and 100 hitting stations, a 10-acre grass-tee area, and a practice fairway bunker.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par-72 course * Length of 7,004 yards * Course rating of 73.8 * Slope rating of 131 * Four tee options * Scorecard
Country Club of Canton's 18-hole course wraps snugly around a 22-acre lake, allowing it to incorporate water into play on most of the holes. It's been the central characteristic since the layout was first strung around the lake in 1923. Other previous occupants included the old pine forests, still in existence, as well as the lake monster, forced to relocate through eminent domain. The golf club's social scene revolves around the 12,000 square-foot clubhouse, where a driving range and putting green skirt the clubhouse grille and banquet space.
Course at a Glance * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 6,322 yards from the back tees * Rating of 69.5 from the back tees * Slope of 114 from the back tees * Three sets of tees * Scorecard
Hale Irwin recognizes that most golf courses have only one signature hole. But you don?t win the U.S. Open three times and rack up 87 professional victories in a storied PGA career by doing what everybody else does. So when Mr. Irwin unveiled his design for The Links at Cottonwoods in March of 1998, he included two signature holes: the 13th, a par 5 extending to a whopping 600 yards, and the 16th, a par 3 with a nerve-racking island green. In 2012, readers of Golf Digest presented Mr. Irwin with a 4.5-star rating in the magazine?s ?Best Places to Play? section for his audacious design and willingness to flout convention.
His distinctive pair of holes highlights a pristine, 18-hole stretch of Scottish-style links, complete with wide fairways pestered by strong seasonal winds but free of wandering sheep that chew on argyle socks. As players chase dimpled orbs across the Meyer Zoysia fairways and tap them over the Champion Bermuda greens, they?ll encounter water-bordering play on more than half of the holes.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 6,989 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 72.3 from the back tees * Course slope of 119 from the back tees * Five sets of tees per hole
Whisper Lake Country Club's verdant course encompasses 4,645 yards of kempt bermuda-grass fairways into a compact-but-challenging par 64 course. Golfers can prepare for rounds with swing-loosening stints at the driving range. There, wise players will focus on mid-length shots and keep drivers securely covered so they don't recognize rounds of golf are being played without them. Various short, drivable par 4s line the course, eschewing the longball in favor of pinpoint long irons or fairway woods, encouraging duffers to direct orbs to hospitable landing areas and set up favorable angles to approach fast, tifdwarf greens. Four sets of tees make the course surmountable for golfers of all abilities, and its compressed yardage—the 18-hole course only features two, relatively short par 5s compared to nine par 3s—allows duffers to complete rounds in about three hours or less, freeing up valuable time to tend to workday obligations or mow basement shag carpets into in-home putting greens. Cart rental is included in all options.
In View Golf renders rainchecks obsolete by virtually teleporting patrons to more than 30 famed golf courses—including Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hill—via 12'x9' high-def projection screens. As golfers take to the cyberlinks, video analysis software, previously available only to touring PGA and LPGA pros, records every swing, capturing such statistics as shot distance, club-head speed, and the golf ball's potential earning value. During a 45-minute private lesson, In View's professional instructors analyze the videos to make individualized adjustments to patrons' natural golf swings. Or forgo in-person tips on chips and grips, and instead opt for a round of 18 holes in the golf simulator with a fellow iron-wielder, using the instant video feedback to see and measure the results of tweaks to techniques and tempers.
Wedgewood Golfers' Club and North Creek Golf Course integrate the scenic landscapes of northern Mississippi into their par 72 layouts, taking golfers across rolling hills and rippling waterways.
The North Creek course's bermuda-grass fairways weave along the edges of Horn Lake Creek with a relatively open layout and mounded terrain that channels the links-style charm of golf's Scotch-Irish forebears. Slightly easier than its counterpart, North Creek caters to clubbers of all stripes with four tee options and optional bumper greens.
North Creek Golf Course at a Glance:
Cleaved through a combination of dense tree lines and intervening ponds, The Wedgewood course's bermuda-grass fairways sprawl across 6,863 yards of arduous terrain. With trees hugging most holes, and water hazards kissed against the underside of two doglegged fairways, the course frequently forces players into tough course-management decisions, such as when to smash a driver, when to play lay-up with a three-wood, and how to coerce fellow golfers into giving you unlimited mulligans. Though challenging from the back tees, the course's inventive layout is forgiving enough for players of all abilities.

Caterpillar Marine Power Systems and Caterpillar Emissions Solutions announced that the United States Environmental Protection Agency has certified Cat 3500 Series Marine Emissions Kits according to EPA Rule 40 CFR Part 1042. This Marine Remanufacture Program applies to many commercial engines flagged or registered in the United States, and the requirements include a 25 percent particulate matter reduction at overhaul. By replacing the mechanical unit injector (MUI) system and other associated components on the engine, the upgrade kits offer vessel owners an in-hull solution that exceeds the requirements, and offers operational benefits.
Offering sustainable solutions to customers and the market at large is a driving force within the Caterpillar enterprise. Caterpillar is powering change by leveraging technology and innovation to increase efficiency and productivity with less impact on the environment and helping our customers do the same – enabling their businesses to become more productive by providing products, services and solutions that use resources more efficiently.
Reducing emissions is a key imperative within the Caterpillar sustainability strategy and the 3500 Emissions Upgrade Kits are an example of aligning sustainability with innovation to help our customers. Aside from the compliance and environmental benefits, an upgrade from a mechanical to an electronic EPA Tier 1 or Tier 2 configured engine can also result in numerous operational improvements. These benefits include improved diagnostic and display capabilities as well as smoother overall operation. As confirmed by multiple customers, an upgrade solution during the overhaul can result in lower vibration and noise levels, and a significant fuel savings. A lesser known advantage of electronic fuel injection engines is that they offer superior brake specific fuel consumption in the midrange versus a traditional mechanical fuel injection engine. "In many cases, we observe that our customers operate a significant percentage of their time below the rated power and speed, meaning that this upgrade kit will translate into both emissions reduction and operating cost savings over time," Tetrault noted.
Emissions upgrade kits for Cat 3500 Series marine propulsion engines are currently available for order from Caterpillar. The kits are also available internationally for customers but compliance will depend on local acceptance. Customers should contact their local Cat Dealer to determine applicability based on existing engine serial number and operation profile. For more information, please visit http://marine.cat.com.

Weekends are rough on fans of Xiao Bao Biscuit, which has long kept its hours limited to Saturday dinner service.
But now the popular Spring Street restaurant is adding Saturday lunch to its regular schedule. Starting this weekend, Xiao Bao will serve a slightly tweaked-version of its daytime menu from 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m.
"The menu will include a few additional items, as well as a slight return to more breads," chef and co-owner Josh Walker writes.
The new breakfasty items include banh mi op la, a Vietnamese sandwich with soft scrambled eggs, and a "Hong Kong-style French toast."
"Think peanut butter and condensed milk," Walker advises.
Oh, we're thinking about it alright.
Xiao Bao is located at 224 Rutledge Ave.

Quoted from Victoria Sugar isn't helping at all .. but I see the dilemma you are in.Maybe give Clematis (Bach) a try.
Quoted from ruthiegirl In the meantime, she's ignoring the world around her. She needs to learn how to tune in to the world around her even when she's feeling tired, and it takes more energy to do so.
