The Real Story Behind Clay Aiken's Coming Out
The Real Story Behind Clay Aiken's Coming Out
JOSSIP REPORTS — The story behind Clay Aiken's coming out cover for People goes something like this: Lots of magazines were in the running for the photo exclusive, but People outbid them all for a cool $500,000. That's the way MSNBC's The Scoop reported it last week, and that's the story Page Six carried this morning.
Except as our sources tell it — and these are the type of sources who were, let's say, involved in the actual transaction — OK! didn't have a shot in hell at the pictures. In fact, no tabloid did. Not Us Weekly, not Star, and certainly not In Touch or Life & Style.
Despite what OK! might have you believe, the only way Clay's coming out would be told was in the pages of People. And that's exactly how it happened. Here's why:
Clay's publicist is Cindi Berger at PMK-HBH, the powerhouse PR firm. Berger's client roster includes names like Barbara Walters, and another famous gay, Rosie O'Donnell. Suffice to say, she hates the tabloids with a passion, and the idea of having a "working relationship" with them in a farce. Except for People. She's maintained a long and healthy relationship with the tabloid, and knew it was the only place for her client Aiken to come out. Additionally, People has a history of respecting coming out stories (see: Lance, Ellen).
Which meant that not only did Aiken's camp not shop the pictures around to all the tabloids, but the weeklies that did try to submit bids to Team Aiken were rebuffed. We're told Berger and PMK "did not entertain any interest" from other magazines. "They were all brushed off," says our knowledgeable source.
Further, this story was a two-parter: Clay came out and showed off his newborn celebrity baby. If he were simply unveiling his new child without coming out, maybe Aiken would've taken the photos to market to bid up the price. But combining the baby pics with his coming out story, Berger and Aiken knew People was the only logical decision.
The reports you've been reading, from MSNBC and Page Six, insist that OK! was bidding for Clay's pics, but that new topper Kent Brownridge pulled the plug because he's done with spending huge sums on exclusive photos. Which, to be sure, may be true: Brownridge is indeed cutting the fat at the tabloid to lower spending. But even if Brownridge decided to actually compete with People, OK! would've have snagged the pics. Insists our source: "Any editor who claims they had any real discussion with PMK about Aiken coming out is lying, plain and simple."
For what it's worth, the gossip mill is pointing its finger at exiting OK! executive editor Rob Shuter as the source of both the MSNBC and P6 items. Last week, when we heard rumblings about all this, we asked The Scoop's Courtney Hazlett, who used to work at OK!, whether she was fed the info from Shuter, but she insisted she had "multiple sources" on the item.
Meanwhile, ousted editor-in-chief Sarah Ivens has been the rumored source on last week's Brownridge-bashing in the Post.
These are all just pure coincidences, right?
Who really gives a fuck about this troll?
Oh well, at least the baby is cute.
Well someone still has their facts wrong- it was posted on Clay's official web-site over the week-end by someone in his official camp that NO money changed hands for the interview or pics.
Very interesting. MSNBC and page six also said Clay Aiken was paid $500,000.00 for his story and pictures.Guess they made that up too,because his EP said Clay Aiken insisted he NOT be paid for his story or any pictures.That story has been all over TV. Funny how they quote them selves as being the sourse of their own lies.
This story is getting old. Who cares how much he got paid?
Why don't you inveterate Clay apologists just say that it was Jaymes Foster who posted on the fan club message board that Clay received no money for the story? As to the truth, that would be the same Jaymes Foster who spent two days arguing with fans that Clay never lied. Still, I notice that this story doesn't actually say People paid. Not that it matters: the MSNBC story, which spread far and wide. is the one people will remember, especially without an official denial from Aiken's camp.
Jossip should correct the story to say that Clay didn't want to be paid for his story. Its the right thing to do.
Maybe they made a deposit to Unicef or his BAF foundation. I don't think Clay would have been on Intouch or USweekly or OK for that matter. People has a better reputation than the rest of the tabloids.
Thank you to those that don't care and yet post a comment to say they don't care. Also a big thank you to those that only care to report what they've seen by following his fans. I appreciate all of you that help make Clay stories popular. Thank you for not caring.
Strange that with Ivens and Shuter on the way out of OK! there's an almost daily leak to the New York Post.
Must be a coincidence.
You mean Clay Aiken actually… LIED? OMG!!
Who gives a shit about Gay aiken? He matters about as much as a fart in a hurricane.
The Gayken isn't even a has-been; he's a never was!!
I find it rather funny that some of you spout how he is a has been and yet you are compelled to post your opinions as if you are someone yourself.
bob and cracker you better watch your mouth and watch what you say,theirs no need to use that kind of language. and dont talk back to me because im 72 ill put you over my knee and spank you.haha.if you guys dont have something nice to say keep it to your self.marie

The Faculty congratulates Social Work alumna Jude Irwin who this year was promoted to Professor of Social Work and Social Justice.
The FESW in partnership with the Australian Education Union and the Australian College of Educators hosted an evening with Professor Linda Darling-Hammond of Stanford University at the Faculty on Monday 2 May 2011. As the US experiences significant 'educational reform', Darling-Hammond provided insights into lessons from the US which could potentially make all the difference to the future of education in Australia. Its a fascinating insight and of interest to the FESW Alumni & Friends and is available as a podcast on the Facultys site. Darling-Hammond is Charles E Ducommun Professor of Education at Stanford University where she has launched the Stanford Educational Leadership Institute and the School Redesign Network, and has served as faculty sponsor for the Stanford Teacher Education Program (STEP). She is a former president of the American Educational Research Association and member of the National Academy of Education. Her research, teaching, and policy work focus on issues of school restructuring, teacher quality and educational equity. She was education advisor to Barack Obamas presidential campaign and was reportedly among candidates for Secretary of Education in the Obama administration. "Bureaucratic solutions to problems of practice will always fail because effective teaching is not routine, students are not passive, and questions of practice are not simple, predictable, or standardized. Consequently, instructional decisions cannot be formulated on high then packaged and handed down to teachers." from Linda Darling-Hammonds award-winning book, The Right to Learn (1997) A podcast of the event is available on the FESW website.

Gross-out comedy kings Peter and Bobby Farrelly, the filmmakers behind classically stoopid fare from ''Dumb and Dumber'' to ''Shallow Hal,'' are taking their act to the small screen. According to Variety they're producing a ''Curb Your Enthusiam''-like sitcom for Fox built around Ricky Blitt, the screenwriter of the brothers' upcoming movie ''The Ringer.''
Blitt hopes to play himself, a telemarketer turned screenwriter whose bitterness is untarnished by his burgeoning career. As Blitt told Variety, ''It's about someone who's making money and meeting a lot of famous people, but he's still not getting laid.'' Peter Farrelly describes the show as '''Curb Your Enthusiasm' before Larry David made it. This is [David] coming up, and not as handsome.''
How did Blitt get a pilot commitment from the Fox network and producers 20th Century Television? ''I slept with [Fox and 20th executives] Sandy Grushow, Gail Berman, Dana Walden, and Gary Newman, all at the same time,'' he told Variety. ''Not to bite the hand that feeds me, but I was by far the most generous in bed.'' Actually, Blitt pitched his idea for the show, tentatively titled ''Who the Hell Is Ricky Blitt?'', to the Farrellys, who are producing ''The Ringer,'' his screenplay about two guys who try to pay off a debt by fixing the Special Olympics. Also, Blitt wrote scripts for Fox's ''Family Guy.''
The pilot script involves Blitt developing a crush on the Farrelly's ''There's Something About Mary'' star, Cameron Diaz, though Variety reports that the brothers haven't approached her yet about a guest spot. More likely, according to the Hollywood Reporter, the show's celebrity presence will be a '70s sitcom star like Henry Winkler, who actually once gave Blitt some dating advice. Hey, who wouldn't watch this show, just to get dating tips from the Fonz?

This demo video seems to take forever (and the music doesn't help), but the concept is interesting: The Bloomframe is a motorized balcony that appears and disappears at the touch of a button.
The Bloomframe isn't exactly new, in fact it started generating blog buzz in early '07; difference between then and now is it's finally in production, selling in Holland, France, Spain, and Portugal.
But I have to say, once I got over the "wow" factor, I started asking myself: How is this better than just having a regular balcony? If my apartment had a balcony, I can't see how making it disappear would improve things. Is it just me?

In the story done by USA Today about the Mega Millions jackpot, the reporter uses various facts and figures to get his point across.
The article talks about the total jackpot winnings and how much each of the three winners gets once the money is split and divided by taxes. It also goes on to discuss the odds of winning the $640 million jackpot. The reporter also incorporates how much money was spend on the lottery tickets and how that money will be divided by the lottery, state, stores, etc.
The numbers aren't very overwhelming because the reporter rarely uses more than one figure in a paragraph. It is also easy to read and interesting because everyone loves to hear about money and fantasize what they would do if it was their own.
From what I can tell it doesn't seem like the reporter did much math on his own but rather got his information from other sources. A lot of people throw numbers at the reporter, from the lottery officials to people talking about how much they spent. At one point it does state how much lottery ticket buyers spent across the country and I imagine the reporter did do some math to figure out the number.

Mohammed al Zawahiri rejects 'filthy market of democracy'
Mohammed al Zawahiri, the younger brother of al Qaeda emir Ayman al Zawahiri, and two other jihadist ideologues have released a statement criticizing the Democratic Jihad Party in Egypt. Ahmed Ashush and Jalal Abu Fotouh, both of whom are leading figures in Ansar al Sharia Egypt, are Zawahiri's co-signatories on the statement, which was translated by the SITE Intelligence Group.
"Jihad and Democracy are opposites and don't mix," the three jihadists argue in the opening lines of their statement. They add that democracy is "one of the greatest deceptions used by the enemies of" Islam and pushes people away from their obligation to perform jihad.
"So, we heard about America's agents founding the Democratic Jihad Party," SITE's translation reads. "Their Satan made it look good for them, to combine between light and darkness, and between tawhid [monotheism] and idolatry, but they failed and their goal was lost."
The Democratic Jihad Party was formed by former members of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ), a terrorist organization that was headed by Ayman al Zawahiri before its merger with Osama bin Laden's operation, and other former jihadists. Mohammed al Zawahiri headed the EIJ's military committee during the 1990s and was responsible for overseeing the organization's terrorist operations. Ashush was also a member of the EIJ, and admittedly consorted with leading EIJ figures in Afghanistan in the early 1990s.
Mohammed al Zawahiri and his two allies bristle at the notion that al Qaeda's emir would approve of the political party.
Some of the party's leaders "aren't known to have had any affiliation with jihad all their lives, and all of a sudden they have a title in the media such as the 'jihadi leader'," the three authors say. These same leaders "move every night from one satellite channel to another and attribute themselves to Dr. Ayman al Zawahiri, may Allah preserve him, and say: Our Emir al Zawahiri said such-and-such."
The authors of the statement argue that while the party is supposed to be the political arm of jihadist groups, the groups' military operations are nonexistent, meaning the party's leaders have abandoned jihad. Sarcastically, they write: "We don't know in which crypts the military wings of these political arms disappeared!"
Al Bayan Media Foundation and Ansar al Sharia Egypt
The statement by Mohammed al Zawahiri, Ashush, and Fotouh was published by the Al Bayan Media Foundation on the group's Facebook page and jihadist forums. Al Bayan's Facebook page is updated infrequently, but posts on the page are decidedly pro-al Qaeda.
On June 6, the Al Bayan Media Establishment republished Ahmed Ashush's statement blasting Tunisian Islamist Rached Ghannouchi. One year earlier, Ghannouchi had criticized al Qaeda emir Ayman al Zawahiri, whom Ashush openly praises. |
On June 6, for instance, the group republished a statement by Ashush defending Ayman al Zawahiri against criticisms levied by Rached Ghannouchi of Tunisia's Islamist Ennahda party. One year ago, Ghannouchi lambasted Zawahiri as a "disaster for Islam and for Muslims," adding that "al Qaeda's project is one of destruction and civil war."
Ashush responded at the time, claiming that Ghannouchi is a hypocrite who compromised his principles in the name of democracy. In contrast, Ashush argued, Ayman al Zawahiri should be praised for his "truthfulness and dedication" and for fully realizing the dawa (or call) of Sayyid Qutb, the intellectual godfather of al Qaeda and like-minded groups.
Ashush glorified Zawahiri, saying that he deferred to bin Laden's leadership because he "was not a man of the world, seeking a position or leadership, but rather a jihadist, who does his part wherever he is." Ashush even credited Zawahiri for the Arab Spring, arguing that Zawahiri was the one who "planted the seed of rebellion against tyranny" and supported the "Arab revolutions."
While denouncing Ghannouchi, Ashush praised Abu Iyad al Tunisi and his Ansar al Sharia group in Tunisia, as well as "all those who work for Islam in Tunisia." Ashush concluded by asking Allah to "protect our sheikh, Dr Ayman al Zawahiri, and all the mujahidin."
Ashush, like Mohammed al Zawahiri, is clear about his allegiance to al Qaeda. During an interview in late October 2012, for instance, Ashush said he was "honored to be an extension of al Qaeda."
In April, the Al Bayan Media Foundation's Facebook page advertised a then recent message from Ayman al Zawahiri that was disseminated by al Qaeda's As Sahab propaganda arm. Al Bayan also posted a link to the video.
In March, Ashush's eulogy of slain al Qaeda leader Abu Yahya al Libi was re-posted by Al Bayan.
In February, Al Bayan published a message by Fotouh calling on Muslims to support the jihad in Mali.
Mohammed al Zawahiri, who is featured at Ansar al Sharia Egypt's events, has also attempted to rally public support against France's role in Mali. In January, the younger Zawahiri hosted a protest outside of France's Embassy in Cairo and threatened the West with retaliation. Banners featuring Zawahiri's older brother and Osama bin Laden were featured at the event. One of Mohammed al Zawahiri's followers was also killed while fighting in Mali in May.
In September 2012, just days after the pro-al Qaeda rally in front of the American Embassy in Cairo, Al Bayan published a message from Ashush calling for the makers of the film "Innocence of Muslims" to be killed.
Ansar al Sharia in Egypt, like Ansar al Sharia groups elsewhere, is staunchly opposed to democracy, which it sees as inconsistent with its strict version of Islamic law. In their founding statement, Ansar al Sharia Egypt's leaders called for the implementation of sharia law. They also said they will work toward "the liberation of the Muslim lands from foreign invasion" and resist "modern colonialism, especially the Zionist-Crusader colonialism that is led by America and the West."
The latest statement by Mohammed al Zawahiri and his allies is cut from the same cloth as their previous missives.

When will this guy be turned to ash?
Posted by Jeff Edelman at June 12, 2013 8:03 PM ET:
The authors make an obvious, yet, powerfully truthful statement. I couldn't agree more. As they assuredly know the qu'ran well, they are qualified to make this statement. I'm certain they would say that jihad equals islam. This is an important message and should be an alarm for moderates and coexist adherents. But, what may miff these guys most is that this wolf of a political party cloaked in the sheepskin of the word democratic, well do more to establish the caliphate than they ever could. I believe the muslim term for this is: taqqiya.
Posted by Mr T at June 13, 2013 12:22 PM ET:
"Jihad and Democracy are opposites and don't mix,"
Of course they would say that. They want to be the dictators that make all the rules so they can be the ones in power. Their personal ambitions are greater than any religious idealism. They just don't want you to know that. Hypocrites.
Posted by Stephen at June 13, 2013 5:16 PM ET:
What sort of statements did they make about the 1.3 billion the Americans were going to give Egypt each year ...
I think "the Filthy" market should think again about it's taxpayer money...

True Islamists don't believe in democracy.
The WOT is about some people want Sharia Law Gods law whilst some people want democracy man made law.

how cute, an ideological 'cat fight.' May the Mensheviks or Brownshirts prevail. Then again who really cares because at the 'end of the day' a "Night Of The Long Knives" is fate awaiting all these beasts.

Is there any sub group of Islam for whom democracy is acceptable? Village elders, terror group leaders meeting in council...?
Posted by sundoesntirse at June 14, 2013 7:26 AM ET:
He will not be turned to ash until he shows up in a theater of war, something he probably will never do considering he feels comfortable enough to preach from the mosques and give speeches. He does not want to lose his life.
Taqiyya is a mostly Shia practice, although apparently some Sunnis feel they too have justification for it: The justification that lying is permissible a) if you are lying to disbelievers and b) if it serves the purpose of spreading Islam.
And as for Mr T said, well, some people believe the definition of "Dictator" should be a person, or group of people (council, body, union, etc) that rule without a legislature. The thing is though, is what if these guys eventually take full power and claim the Quran as their legislature, interpreted by councils of "approved" clerics? They would be unstoppable, in a society like Egypt speaking up against Islam is socially interwoven into them as a bad thing to do.
There is a secular opposition in Egypt but it has gotten almost nowhere in the past 2 years. They have the approval of more privileged urban youth, as well as a large portion of Copts. But they have no power when it comes to influencing law or politics. Judges continuously rule against Pres. Morsi but he just circumvents legal rulings by using executive decrees to push through what he wants.

its true (tho often denied) that ideologues & some societies are not developed enough for democracy.
for you see, a robust democracy must suffer ideologues while the reverse is not true.

Video Description
Robert Pattinson can act well in anything not titled 'Twilight', and it makes me very happy to see that he's chosen wisely to work with an excellent director like David Cronenberg for his next project. The film is titled Cosmopolis and by the looks of this trailer (and a previous teaser trailer that we never linked thanks to NSFW content), it looks like Cronenberg is back to his surreal thriller work again. Pattinson looks strikingly different in this adult role and the film itself looks very appealing in the bizarre quality of it all. There's a revolution, a limo, a dinosaur, people dressed in crazy costumes and some sex even. Looks like a movie not for the mainstream, but I'll dig it. It premieres at Cannes Film Festival next month. Plot - Riding across Manhattan in a stretch limo in order to get a haircut, a 28-year-old billionaire asset manager's day devolves into a odyssey with a cast of characters that start to tear his world apart.

The St. Louis man mauled in a chimpanzee attack in South Africa is returning home for treatment.
Andrew Oberle is expected to be transferred from a hospital in South Africa to Saint Louis University Hospital next week. Hospital spokeswoman Laura Keller says Dr. Bruce Kraemer, chief of plastic surgery, will oversee his care.
Oberle, who is 26, is expected to have extensive reconstructive facial surgery. Relatives have said Oberle lost both ears, his left arm and toes in the attack. He has been in a drug-induced coma while hospitalized in South Africa.
Oberle is a University of Texas at San Antonio graduate student in anthropology. He was leading a tour on June 28 when he was pulled under a fence by two chimps.

Hi! I am a stay at home mom to my sons, 5 year old Nolan, and 2 year old Blake. My husband works for a securities trading company, and in our spare time we enjoy trying new restaurants (which rarely happens anymore now that we're in parent land!), having friends over, and playing games. We recently moved from Kansas City to London...talk about a BIG change! I'm adjusting and really enjoying this new adventure. I'm trying to learn all the new brands and labels in the markets and figure out that darn metric system! I've enjoyed baking some of my favorite cookie recipes to cure homesickness, and look forward to trying some traditional English cuisine! Cheers!
My husband and I love to get Chinese take out from our favorite little place and spend a quiet evening watching movies and relaxing after our little ones are down for the night. I also love cooking for our family and trying new recipes. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, so when I can, I try to convince my husband to get up early and share some blueberry pancakes or scones with me over a cup of coffee. My mom (Zaar chef "Hazeleyes" ) is a fabulous cook and set the bar pretty high for me when I became a wife and mother. She continues to inspire me to try new things and shower my own family with love, home cookin style!

October 7, 2011
Jefferson City, Mo. – Attorney General Chris Koster today filed suit against Carthel and Sandra English, of Walnut Shade, Missouri, for violations of the state's Underground Storage Tank (UST) law.
Koster said the defendants have failed to remove three steel underground storage tanks located at their now-defunct gas station, the Walnut Shade In and Out. He said Missouri law requires the permanent closure of a steel UST system if that system has not been maintained for more than a year. The USTs located at the English's old gas station have been inoperable and not maintained since at least August 2007.
Koster said he filed the lawsuit after the Englishes failed to respond to correspondence from his office requesting that they close the tanks. He is asking the court to issue a permanent injunction prohibiting the defendants from any further violations of the Missouri UST law, to pay a civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day for each violation of the law, and to pay court costs.
"Underground storage tanks that are not in compliance with the law can pose a serious health threat to Missourians," Koster said. "This legal action is necessary because the defendant failed to voluntarily comply with the law even though given ample opportunity to do so."

My rosemary has flowered as does have the pods. Can I take the green pods off and let them dry? Will that work? Or do they have to stay othe plant to dry. |

Every seed I have ever heard of needs to be dry before harvesting. But new Rosemary plants are best gotten from cuttings. The seeds have a very low germination rate from all I have read. Not only are cuttings easier but much faster. But then the fun is in having success starting anything from seed so let the venture began |
This is a Seed Saving question and they have their own forum here. It is direct linked near the top of this forum's page. But the basic answer is no you cannot. The seeds will still be immature and non-viable. They have to mature on the plant. Dave |

New strike partners Michael Bakare and Tom Collins have already started to strike up an understanding at Tonbridge.
Bakare, who joined from Dover last week, scored on his debut in their 3-2 defeat at Farnborough on Tuesday.
He started alongside Hyde loanee Collins and Angels boss Tommy Warrilow liked what he saw. He said: "Considering it was the first time Michael Bakare and Tom Collins had met each other, there were some good signs. They're both pacy.
"I've been a fan of Michael's for a long time. I always looked at the (Dover) team sheet to see if Michael was playing or not.
"I know him from his Chelmsford days and what he can do, so I'm delighted to get him on board."
An ankle injury has ruled Ryan Watts out of Saturday's trip to Staines and Lee Browning is still suspended but Chris Piper returns after illness.

She lives off Red Bull and Ensure. She openly admits to avoiding solid food altogether and recently told a reporter 'she'll eat when she's dead'. She claims she dresses for old people who look at her funny in the airport but she is one of the most revered and inspired fashion icons in the world. Her aesthetic has been described as "often futuristic, but she also appears to have come from a bygone age when getting dressed was considered a demanding form of self-expression, rather than an opportunity to wallow in spandex-enabled comfort." She inspires me in both design and fashion especially after running into a client at Trader Joe's in my workout clothes.
Fashion designer Tom Ford describes her as possibly the most stylish woman living, Karl Lagerfeld claims her as a muse and The New Yorker lovingly described her as "a slightly deranged fairy invented by C.S. Lewis." She's such a wildly creative style icon that the museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology is currently devoting one of its galleries to almost 100 pieces from her closet. Who is this style maven known to make an entrance in 10 inch heels? Daphne Guinness, the heir to the Guinness beer fortune, close friend of Alexander McQueen and epic collector of haute couture.
Obviously, Daphne Guinness belongs in my moxie file since she literally wears it on her sleeve. I admire her boldness, her authenticity and, of course, her mindblowing style but I also draw inspiration from her unabashed embrace of beauty and her reverence for its creation. One of my favorite quotes is by Daphne Guinness: "We need better things, not more. We should not pollute the world with meaningless, unused things when we can make and support things of rare and precious beauty."
Guinness, a regular in both the upper realms of artsy bohemians and wealthy socialites, travels between her homes in Europe and New York City. Her closet must follow separately with a recent estimate of 2,500 pieces in her wardrobe by some of the biggest names in the business including Chanel, Dior, Givenchy, Lacroix and Valentino, not to mention her 450 pairs of shoes.
Guinness herself is not just a clothes junkie. She has designed clothing with Dover Street Market and worked with fashion label Comme des Garçons to create a fragrance but she's also writing a novel, painting, modeling and has produced and acted in films. Her legacy, though, is rooted in her personal choices and her closet which includes the entire of wardrobe of her friend and fellow fashion icon the late Isabella Blow.
One of Guinness' most prized pieces is a gold and diamond arm glove from jewelry designer and friend Shaun Leane. Building on her love of armour, the diamond drenched glove is entitled 'Contra Mundum' or 'Against The World' and took 5 years to create. It is thought to be one of the most technically intricate jewelry pieces in the world with 18K platinum and encrusted with 5000 pavé diamonds.
If you're wondering if her interior design choices are just as daring as her fashion, here are a few photos of her NYC apartment which is packed with large scale contemporary art including works by Damien Hirst and photographer David LaChapelle:
Daphne Guinness is a couture collector but as noted by most designers and fashion writers, Guinness doesn't just look good in clothes, she creates an inspired look with the tools of high fashion. She wears risky clothes from dangerously teetering heels to winged capes draped in feathers. Slightly less theatrical than Lady Gaga, there is an elegance to the style of Guinness that balances and softens the extreme fashion she loves. She often talks about how clothes and accessories give her insight into herself and her experiences which she then fearlessly applies to her daily life.

GMC Sierra: Problems & Solutions
obyone Posts: 8,065HID bulbs? Do they actually make such a thing or is it a marketing ploy. I thought HID had to be bought as a complete system often costing close to $1000 +
Yeah and watch the brightness cause I had a light melt down the fog light housing on my Silverado. Course on the Denali, the fogs are made of glass and not plastic therefore are able to handle the hotter bulbs. -
firefly5 Posts: 9I own a 2004 gmc sierra 2500HD duramax diesel with the allison trans.I have had the same intermitted problem for a year. The truck started with a hesitation problem .I took it into the dealership at which time the dealership recalibrated my computer. Ever since then the engine started stumbling. when this happens it won't go over 25 mph.If the excellorator is fully depressed the engine feels like it's going to die off.Anyone experience this problem or know the fix would appreciate the help.
firefly5 Posts: 9My 2004 gmc 2500HD 6.6 liter diesel allison trans ext.cab has interrior rattels at the dash and between the doors or armrest area. The dealership says they don,t hear anything.I think they should turn off the radio and A/C then they might hear it. The truck has a little over 11,000 miles.It,s driving me crazy? anybody got the same problems?(answers & sollutions)
firefly5 Posts: 9I have had problems with the steering on my truck from the 2nd. month of ownership, I was told I needed to brake in the truck.The problem persisted and got worse, I could feel it on my steering wheel.Finally a friend of mine who owns the same truck advised me there was a bulletin out on the intermediate shaft.The truck in question is the 2004 GMC Sierra 2500HD 6.6 liter duramax diesel ext. cab.The shaft was replaced which caused another problem, a groaning noise in the steering when making left turns. I was told that the coil spring in back of the air bag on my steering had to be replaced. It was replaced but the problem wasn't solved. They then replaced the steering gearbox which caused another problem, This problem still persists today. What certain dealerships are doing is they have devised an adapter which is attached to a grease gun which is then pumped into the intermediate shaft. This has proved to be a temporary fix as the grease comes out and dries up. let me know if this has happened to you?
shiftless Posts: 40This won't solve all the problems you have with the truck but if you have a grease fitting on the intermediate steering shaft spline this would be an easy fix. Use a heavier grease typically used for wheel bearings. I used this method several years ago and the system is still working as it should.
firefly5 Posts: 9Thanks shiftless, I did Explain to the area Rep that if a grease nipple was installed to the intermediate shaft it would help solve this problem.Trust me they don't want to address this problem as it's been going on for years. Makes you wander whats going on with General Motors could this be why their profits are down. Good point that heavier grease does make a lot of sense.( thanks)
geo9 Posts: 739MAIL........Those prices are about "right" for a stealer
brake job.................
Of course they are gonna want to replace the pads, rotors,
calipers and poss. the brake hose(s) and just about
anything else that MAY be "marginal" !!!!!!!!!!!!
Remember that word LIABILITY ? It rears its UGLY head
where safety items are required.............
While any brake job is NOT for the inexperienced. It is
easily done in a short time by a experienced "shadetree"
A set of good pads are under $30. A rotor "cut" is $10
bucks each, a replacement rotor on a 4x4 is anywhere from $50 to $150 each and a set of rebuilt calipers is under $50!.............
Where are you getting these prices and what is included ????????? -
geo9 Posts: 739GUYS.....take a peek over at ridglineownersclub or
GM is NOT the only automaker with steering shaft
or cold start knock problems.............
But to be FAIR......."THOSE" vehicles NEVER have problems!
Just ask any of their owners here in "fantasyland"!!!!!
Did I mention the titan? Thats another "perfect one" too!
mailman2 Posts: 15
obyone Posts: 8,065There are rotors and then there are rotors. There are also rotors that warp. There are ceramic pads and there are metallic pads which will make your rims look like a BMW's. I'd ask what kind of rotor and pads that both will be using cause it will make a difference in the price. Geo9 said $50 to $150 on the rotors. If garage B was using $150 rotors X4 and a quality ceramic pad...well then he'd be charging for parts with free installation.
Personally, if you could just call around and ask how much they would charge to install pads and rotors with you providing the parts to get a better idea on their labor charge. And if opting for that route, I'd definitely would pick up my own parts and watch them install it.
One last thing...try to stay away from Midas....lol. -
2000z71blk Posts: 2I agree with you I have a 2000 GMC Sierra the transfer case just emptied out. Not sure what the issue is. If it's cracked I'm gonna be bull----. If it's the seals I can deal with it. I had no warning at all the fluid just dumped out of the tranfer case when I parked it. I had it put up on the wrecker with the rear facing the pavement and it completly dumped out....
2000z71blk Posts: 2I had slight vibration on the highway pulled into work. Put it in park and all the Transfer case fluid dumped out of the truck. The truck has 83K on it. Is this happening often with these truck. I hope I don't have a cracked transfer case if it is I'm gonna be heated. I've never towed or plowed with this truck ugggggg!!!
geo9 Posts: 739BLK............ I know EXACTLY what you are gonna find !
A wear thru hole in the case itself. It wears from the
inside OUT !!!!!!! This is a known NPG tran. case prob. and is well noted on a few GM truck sites along with
pics and cures...............
Some guys use JB Weld, another guy used a pan screw along
with a washer and sealer. Will dig up link for ya ! -
geo9 Posts: 739Heres a link to pics of the GM trans. case link.
Is yours there? There are others posted elsewhere
with fixes but this is the most common area for the
wear thru leak.........
http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=40876&hl=transfer+case+link -
firefly5 Posts: 9Hey keefe1, each time they cut your rotors and drums it lessens the life of it. Also too much cutting of the front rotors will cause them to heat up and warp a lot faster. I'd contact the GMC Consumer Relations Manager at 1-800-426-8782.If this doesn't help contact the Better Business Bureau. Just stick to it and be persistant.(Good Luck).
mailman2 Posts: 15Had rotors and pads all around. Cost $700. I was there when they took everything off. Could not believe that GM would allow such crap to be installed on their trucks. The rotors were pitted and rusted and the pads were chewed up. I am light on the pedal so it's not abuse. Only 40,000 miles 2001 Z-71. The pads are lifetime and rotors are 1 year but if they rust up, he'll replace them free. GM's rotors rust up in the lot. Looked at a new truck and the rotors are rusted. Salesman said the rust will come off when you start to drive it. YEAH RIGHT
geo9 Posts: 739Mail.....ALL rotors on a lightly driven vehicle will
show some sort of "rust" on the wear face. Water or
moisture will show "rust" on ANY untreated iron or steel
surface. A bit of driving will wear the "rust" off.
Here in snow and salt land severe rust will form between
the front and back wear surfaces in the heat "slots".
Are your brakes pulsing or giving you any other problems?
Rotors????...yea the price varies greatly. Just put a
set on my girls s-blazer.........$39 bucks each.
Made in china of course................ :P
Full sizer 6 or 8 bolt rotors get $pendy quick !!!!!!! -
noobie1 Posts: 326You're right to point that out about HID. I think George and I are confusing HID with Halogen. A quick look at the McMaster-Carr catalogue shows there are four types of HID (High Intensity Discharge); Mercury Vapor, Low-pressure Sodium, High-pressure Sodium, and Metal Halide. They all have a long restart and warm-up period so, if they're actually used in automotive applications someone here may be able to inform. Their use is mainly for area lighting, and yes, they are pricey; You can easily pay $100 for one bulb. And as far as the 'no touchy rule' for Halogen, I've seen it on 120V applications, but I'm not sure if it applies to low voltage applications. There's no warning on the Silvania packaging.
I'm intrigued about your comment on the Denali fogs. Not being familiar with there look, do you know if the 2002's are interchangeable with the same year Silverado?
-David -
akenaten Posts: 122My owners manual says to change the engine oil when the DIC tells me to. It also says I should change the oil at least once a year. Is that really enough? On my other vehicles I change oil and filter every 5000 miles. Since this is my first diesel(2006 Sierra 2500HD)how often should I change it and why would a diesel need it less often than a gas engine? :confuse:
good_dog_scout Posts: 1Are there any other option as to replacing the windows on my 2000 GMC extended cab to get rid of the wind noise? I am actually considering gluing them shut with silicon. Any other ideas out there?
I wished the had made the back quarter windows that roll down. Anyone ever see a truck converted that way? -
gmctruck Posts: 186GM was replacing them under warranty years ago with a redesigned window that supposedly fixed the wind noise problem. There was also a window latch modification that would pull the window in tighter, but I don't remember the exact details since it's been so long ago. A web search might help you find more information on that. The windows can be replaced, but I'm not sure what the cost would be since it's out of warranty.
You would not be able to convert them to roll down windows without major modifications which wouldn't be worth the trouble. Keeping the windows shut all the time seems to help so I don't ever open them on my '99 Sierra.

In general, if the NFP wants to "lend out" the trademark and logo, I guess the contract should state that the recipient cannot run away with the name and logo to start his own shop completely separate from the Gentoo project (hostile fork). > If you have any suggestions for improvement or for coordinator/project lead > structure, try to see if you can suggest it so that it can work in the > context of what I've just outlined above. At the outset, I trust you and the board to ratify a reasonable project structure based on feedback and past experience. In order to speed up the transition to NFP, I would suggest keeping much of the current structure as-is, then spending serious thinking time on the board, in public, how to do any necessary reorganisations. Imho, earlier suggestions to -core where the projects are created by the board, and each project gets an active lead (ie, a working lead, who is also the de facto lead in everyday operations) appointed by the board is a good suggestion. In selecting the lead, the board should also look at his lieutenants; when running for a project lead, the candidate should be open about who he'll initially want as support crew. As a side note: My view on the board is as a piece of infrastructure. It is a necessary component in the production pipeline of Gentoo, but in and of itself, the board doesn't produce any code. It should support and try to appease the Gentoo Community by being as non-intrusive as possible. Finally: I am extremely happy to see that we are at a stage where we formalise our intended goal of making Gentoo NFP in form as well as in spirit. So many heaploads of kudos as is shovelable to the people involved, and especially to Daniel for sticking it out. "... for better and for worse", one should think you married the project;) Kind regards, Karl T

AD permissions error issues
For the second Domain Controller, I get event log error 13508 -- "frs problem sysvol not shared." The same error as above shows up running dcdiag. Both DCs are global catalog servers and run DNS. The problem first occurred after a UPS failure caused both servers to shut down. The problem is that I can add new objects to the AD, but if I try to give user permissions on, say, a new PC, I get the error that the domain does not exist after choosing the user from a list.
Additional information from frs log files:
DC1 - error invalid partner
DC2 - error access denied
This obviously looks like a permissions problem but I have checked these and they appear OK. Also, I tried to run adsiedit on DC1 and got error "name not available CLSID:"

Fix to Dell Laptop Excessive Throttling and Performance Problems
A good friend of mine, (Paul Adare) had a major performance problem with his Latitude E6500.
So Paul asked me if I would re-post the following post to the MCT Newsgroups. I said no worries
Now Paul is not much of a blogger, but replies to a lot of questions on the Microsoft Public Newsgroups as he's an MVP for Identity Lifecycle Manager. So I asked if he wouldn't mind that I blog his post. He replied, Absolutely!
So here it:
Subject: Having Performance Problems with a Dell Laptop?
I have an E6500 which I otherwise love, but I've been hit with this problem and it has been very frustrating to say the least.
In a nutshell, if you've got one of these Dell laptops:
- Latitude E4200
- Latitude E4300
- Latitude E5400
- Latitude E5500
- Latitude E6400
- Latitude E6500
- Latitude E6400 ATG
- Latitude E6400 XFR
- Dell Precision M2400
- Dell Precision M4400
- Dell Precision M6400
You're likely going to hit the same problem with is excessive throttling at operating temperatures that are far below the rated specs for the hardware involved. I most frequently run into this problem when running a video (as reported by most users in the Dell forum).
Dell finally officially acknowledged this issue yesterday (well, they tried to explain it away) and have posted new BIOS versions that are supposed to mitigate the problem. I tried A18 on my e6500 and while it does take a little longer for the problem to appear, it still is a problem. Here's Dell's blog post on the issue:
Here's a long thread on the issue from the Dell forums with the solution that worked for me on page 9 from a forum member named ankaro:
Just an FYI for those who may be hitting this issue. If you have any questions about implementing the solution, post them to the Dell forum and ankaro may be able to help you out. I'm not an expert in using the RightMark tool, I've just managed to find settings that work for me.
Many thanks for the tip Paul !!

Guardians of Eternity Book 1
January 2007 Zebra Historical ISBN 0-8217-7856-0
*RT Reviewer's Choice Award Nominee*
It's been a hell of a day for Abby Barlow. In just a few hours, she's survived an explosion, watched her employer die, had a startling dream, and now she finds herself in a seedy Chicago hotel with the sexy, unearthly Dante, a man she both desires and fears.
For 341 years, Dante has stood as guardian to The Chalice, a mortal woman chosen to hold back the darkness. A terrible twist of fate has now made Abby that woman. Three hours ago, Dante would have used all his charms to seduce her. Now she is his to protect. And he will do so until his very death.
A terrifying plan has been set in motion, one that will plunge Dante and Abby into an epic battle between good and evil—and a desperate race to save their love...
"A sizzling paranormal romance...an affair so hot it burns up the page." --Savannah Russe, USA Today bestselling author of Beyond the Pale
"Alexandra Ivy is already in a league of her own." --Lynn Viehl, author of Dark Need
Chicago 2006
"Oh god, Abby. Don't panic. Just...don't...panic."
Sucking in a deep breath Abby Barlow pressed her hands to her heaving stomach and studied the shards of pottery that lay splintered across the floor.
Okay, so she broke a vase. Well, perhaps more than broke it. It was more like she shattered, decimated, and annihilated the vase, she grudgingly conceded. Big deal. It was not the end of the world.
A vase was a vase. Wasn't it?
She abruptly grimaced. No, a vase was not just a vase. Not when it was a very rare vase. A priceless vase. One that should no doubt have been in a museum. One that was the dream of any collector and...
Freaking hell.
Panic once again reared its ugly head.
She had destroyed a priceless Ming vase.
What if she lost her job? Granted it wasn't much of a job. Hell, she felt as if she were stepping into the Twilight Zone each time she entered the elegant mansion on the outskirts of Chicago. But her position as companion to Selena LaSalle was hardly demanding. And the pay was considerably better than slinging hash in some sleazy dive.
The last thing she needed was to be back in the long lines at the Unemployment Office.
Or worse...dear god, what if she were expected to pay for the blasted vase?
Even if there were such a thing as a half price sale at the local Ming outlet shop she would have to work ten lifetimes to make such a sum. Always supposing that it was not one of a kind.
Panic was no longer merely rearing. It was thundering through her at full throttle.
There was only one thing to be done, she realized. The mature, responsible, adult thing to do.
Hide the evidence.
Covertly glancing about the vast foyer Abby ensured that she was alone before lowering herself to her knees and gathering the numerous shards that littered the smooth marble.
It was not as if anyone would notice the vase was missing, she tried to reassure herself. Selena had always been a recluse, but in the past two weeks she had all but disappeared. If it weren't for her occasional cameo appearances to demand that Abby prepare that disgusting herb concoction she guzzled with seeming pleasure Abby might have thought that the woman had done a flit.
Certainly Selena didn't roam the house taking inventory of her various knick-knacks.
All Abby needed to do was ensure that she didn't leave any trace of her crime and surely all would be well.
No one would ever know.
No one.
"My, my, I never thought to see you on your hands and knees, lover. A most intriguing position that leads to all sorts of delicious possibilities," a mocking voice drawled from the entrance to the drawing room.
Abby closed her eyes and heaved in a deep breath. She was cursed. That had to be it. What else could possibly explain her unending run of bad luck?

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Islamists are poised to do well in elections this month in Tunisia, the
first of the Arab Spring countries to choose new representatives. But the
nation's prime minister has a message for the West: Don't worry.
"All Islamist parties are not the same," Beji Caid Essebsi said in an
interview Wednesday.
Opinion polls indicate that an Islamist party, Ennahdha, could get the
most votes in the Oct. 23 balloting, in which voters will choose an
assembly to rewrite Tunisia's constitution.
"There's a red line on which we all agree," Caid Essebsi said, which is to
maintain the 1959 constitution's definition of Tunisia as a Muslim country
- but "not an Islamic republic."
The head of Ennahdha, Rachid Ghannouchi, recently told Reuters that his
party "will not retreat" from modernizing reforms instituted after Tunisia
became independent. He says the party respects democracy and women's
rights. Some secular groups, however, are worried.
Caid Essebsi, 84, was a longtime senior official in Tunisia's
authoritarian governments, which were strongly opposed to Islamist
movements, although he was seen as something of a reformer. During his
visit to Washington this week, Caid Essebsi plans to thank President Obama
for his support of the January revolution that ousted President Zine
el-Abidine Ben Ali.
But Caid Essebsi also is hoping for more support, particularly to help the
ailing economy.
"The revolution in Tunisia has to succeed in order to serve as an example
for others in the region," he said.
The Obama administration has proposed economic "enterprise" funds to help
small businesses in Tunisia and Egypt. But it is still unclear whether
Congress will sign off on the idea.
In addition, a major U.S. aid agency, the Millennium Challenge Corp.
(MCC), announced last week that Tunisia will be eligible for one of its
"threshold" grants, which are usually between $10 million and $20 million.
But the country did not qualify for the agency's higher-level "compact"
grants of $200 million or more.
"It wasn't nice news," Caid Essebsi said.
Sheila Herrling, vice president for policy evaluation at the MCC, said
Tunisia hadn't met the requirements for democratic governance.
"But we are really, really excited about the opportunity that the
threshold program will bring for engagement in Tunisia," she said.

Here is the situation:
1. Cavalry approach.
2. Infantry form square.
3. Cavalry innitiates melee (can't "charge" as infantry is in square so low rate of success) and fails.
4. Infantry (stays in square so as not to risk getting caught in line) fires at cavalry (at low effectiveness because in square formation).
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 over and over again with no resolution.
Other than artillery which is not around to alter things, am I missing something?
