Why Do We Keep Making Big Failed Government Bigger?
Here's a heck of a point from the Troglopundit.
We don't trust politicians. We don't believe that they put the common good above their own political welfare.
We do believe that politicians are swayed like wheat grass in heavy winds by the smell of a nice big check. The highest bidder, we believe, gets his way. Not us.
And yet, we're handing these same politicians more and more power to spend vast amounts of money and create vast networks of bureaucratic authority that affect more and more aspects of our daily lives. These same politicians, whom we do not trust.
There's a question at the end of his post we really ought to consider. I'll ask one of my own.
Why do we continue to grow the size of government even though we know it's laden with corruption, waste, inefficiency, and incompetence? If our mechanic or plumber gave us the same service we get as a matter of routine from the federal government, we'd not only stop using that mechanic or plumber, but we'd probably sue them to get our money back.
Even so, we eagerly sign on to the next big program and bloat up the programs we already have despite what history and our own eyes tell us. And when government fails us, we don't seriously consider making it smaller. We buy the line, from the politicians who have a vested interest in the outcome, that what we really need to do is fix the program just a little.
Why do we act that way? Why do we lose our good sense when it comes to government?

Braves announce 4-year deal with Toscano
Club evaluated Cuban outfielder during November workouts in the DR
ATLANTA -- After aggressively scouring the international market over the past few months, the Braves opted to take a chance on Dian Toscano, a relatively obscure Cuban outfielder who might become a part of Atlanta's outfield mix after gaining some seasoning at the Minor League level.
The Braves officially announced their four-year deal (with an option for 2019) with Toscano on Wednesday afternoon. The two parties reached an agreement in early December, but it took nearly two months to complete the clerical requirements necessary to allow the 25-year-old to enter the U.S.

Interested in Siberia since a girl. Later found out out more and travelled there. Was interested in early timekeeping in Siberia, much of which has been published in articles in "Clocks" and other publications, in the 1970s and 1980s and 1990s, and updated since.
Since I could not travel to Siberia and around Siberia anywhere near as much and as often as I would have liked, I am extremely grateful to the many friends I have encountered over the years, who have helped me with information, and books. They have included Irina, Eddi, Tiina, Gertrude, Marguerite, Matriona and Maria, Sardana, Tanya, Albina, and many others.

Out of poverty: and into something more comfortableFrom East Timor to Timbuktu, John Stackhouse has met and lived with hundreds of the world's poor. When he set out on this journey in 1991, he was certain that the new age of global markets and economic reforms would end decades of extreme hardship in the developing world. But as the nineties rolled on, he found poverty still entrenched in dozens of countries -- except where people had some control over their lives. In an intriguing blend of travel writing and analysis, moving portraits and comic tales, Stackhouse tells the personal stories of some of the world's poorest people and shows howtheyare going to end global poverty in the next century. He provides haunting details of lives and communities destroyed by misplaced aid and government interventions. But more importantly he shows how individuals are finding the creativity and means to make their own lives better -- from women in the remote shea-nut forests of West Africa who are learning to bypass their corrupt government to cash in on rich international markets to a trade union of prostitutes in Calcutta that is actively demanding basic human rights. Stackhouse's journey proves that poverty is not an inevitable part of the human condition but a direct result of human actions. Poverty is something that people can change. |

Register today at
As with every new system there are growing pains, but so far things seem to be going smoothly. However, we have a few things we would like to ask our members to do for us. The volunteers that handle the registrations work full-time jobs and it is very difficult for them to spend time during work hours responding and adding people to site lists that "forgot" to register. Please try and remember to register before it closes. We rather you register and cancel later (if need be). Registration opens for each week on THURSDAY at 8 a.m. and closes on MONDAY at 5 p.m. This allows members 5 days to register for Wednesday night. Please mark your calendars and register within those five days.
Site Directors:
If you have to cancel then email email@example.com as soon as you know.
More information and registration links can be found on the club website at www.cnytriathlon.org – under the Club Training tab.
Cancellation Policy
If a site is going to cancel BEFORE 4:00 PM, we will send out an email and post an announcement on Facebook.
If we have to cancel AFTER 4:00 PM, it will be an on-site decision and it will only be posted on Facebook.
Members are to use their own discretion and won't be penalized if they don't show up due to the bad weather.
Also remember, the following people are the ONLY people who will announce a cancellation of the Wednesday Night Trainings on Facebook:
If you would like to bid to win one of the entries, send your best bid to firstname.lastname@example.com by Sunday June 2nd at 6PM. The two bids with the highest donation amount will each receive one entry and will be contacted next Sunday. Minimum bid is suggested at $70 and all proceeds will be donated to the Livestrong YMCA Cancer Survivor Program.

Name: Gina Pauline
Tell us about yourself.
I have lived in Syracuse since the summer of 2006. I am originally from Yonkers, NY (about 15 minutes outside NYC) but have had the opportunity to live in many places thanks to my education and career in the sport sector! I currently work at Syracuse University as a faculty member in sport management.
I have a great family that includes my husband of ten years Jeff, our three kids Gabriella (7), Dominic (4), and Tyler (4), as well as our newest addition, a chocolate lab puppy, Bailey who is 6 months. Being a mom of three young children, and working full time, certainly is a balancing act, and keeps me on the go at all times but I wouldn't change it for the world!
How long have you been involved in Triathlon and what made you take it up?
I have been involved in triathlon for about 2 years now. When I was in college, I had always wanted to do a triathlon but never had the opportunity to do so. One of my research lines as a faculty member focuses on volunteer management. In 2010, I decided that I was going to do a research study on volunteer motivation and satisfaction at triathlon events. As a result, I ended up going out to Syracuse 70.3 and once I saw the event, spoke to the volunteers, it reignited the interest in doing a triathlon and more importantly, getting back into shape. After having three kids and not working out at all (for almost 4 years) when our twin boys turned 1, I decided that I was going to do a sprint triathlon 9 months later. In looking back on it, this was one of the best decisions I made not only for my own personal interests but also to be able to keep up with my kids, especially the boys as they are in constant motion!
What is your athletic background?
My athletic background has truly revolved around swimming! While I played a little tennis and the typical soccer, as a child, the pool is where I spent the majority of my time growing up! I have been swimming competitively since the age of 7. I started swimming just for a summer club and by the time I turned 10 I was swimming year round and dragging my family to swim meets all over the place! I swam competitively at Binghamton University and was blessed to earn 4 All-American honors in the 100 and 200 butterfly. Interestingly, I swam very little freestyle (less than ¼ of each practice), until I started doing triathlons, which now is pretty much all I do! Not sure I could even do a 200 butterfly right now! After finishing up my swimming career, it took me 10 years to get back in the pool and start swimming laps again!
What are your Triathlon strengths and weaknesses?
Certainly the swim is by far my strongest leg of the sport. As far as the weakness, this is a moving target still. In my first year it was definitely the bike, and last year, it was the run so it is a toss-up! And of course there is always room for improvement in the transitions J Certainly, lots of room to improve still, which is why I love the sport.
What was your first triathlon and what do you remember most?
My first triathlon was 2011 YMCA Livestrong Green Lakes. I had thought I was so well prepared for the race as I had been running, swimming (in a pool), and had been mostly riding spin bikes at the gym. I had not gotten on my road bike until about 2 weeks before the race nor had I ever done a brick workout. The race started, and I took out the swim pretty hard, which that year was based on seed time so I was battling to stay in the front with the men. Of course I got hit several times! I got out the water more winded than I had expected and realized that this was going to be harder than I thought. My transition was fairly slow (another thing I didn't practice). I got out on the bike, and about ½ mile out of the park, went into the gravel and went flying off my bike! I remember a few of the guys passing, and saying, "You're doing great, just keep going". As I got back up, I was pretty scraped up, and realized that I had lost my water bottle. I kept going yet questioning why I was out there doing this. I ended up finishing the bike, and off on the run I went. At that time, I was really winded and had to just keep talking myself out of stopping. When I got close to the finish, I saw my husband and kids, which helped me finish. I crossed the finish line, where I was then escorted over to the medical staff to treat all of my cuts and bruises from the fall. I left Green Lakes very sore, all bandaged up, and for about 2 days, I wasn't sure I would ever do a triathlon again. J.
What is your favorite race and why?
This is a tough question as I have several favorite races that each have their own meaning to me. I think the one that always stands out in my head, has nothing to do with a PR or how I felt during the race but rather the experience of completing it. After having a terrible first race, somehow, I convinced myself that I was going to do Ironman 70.3 Syracuse in September 2011 (yes, only three months after my first race ever and having no clue what I was doing). After putting Green Lakes behind me, I signed up for a half ironman! I worked hard to get myself ready to race and certainly logged many more bike miles before that race. The morning of the race it was FREEZING but I will never forget how excited I was to embrace the journey of completing my first long race. My husband and daughter as well as my parents were there to watch me start the race and cheered me on as I came in from the swim. They were then there at different points during the run and the bike. During the entire race, I was very calm, soaking it all in, and truly enjoying the experience. As I finished the race I will never forget seeing my friends, husband, and mom at the finish line, all ready to embrace me with big hugs! It meant the world to me to have them there. The feeling of accomplishment after completing that first 70.3 was incredible as I felt that I had reached a goal that I would never dream possible after having three young children and certainly from where I started just a few months prior.
What was your worst race and why?
2011 YMCA Livestrong Green Lakes (See above)
What races are on your race calendar for 2013?
This year is pretty low key for me as I have been really limited with my training the last few months due to work and family life. Currently I only have two races on my calendar but hoping to add a few more: Musselman sprint and Toughman (70.3 distance). Both of these are favorite races of mine so certainly excited to be part of them again!
What are this year's goals?
My goals are just to continue to improve my fitness level, work on my weak links in the sport, and most importantly to have fun out there!
In five years you hope to … :
Still be competing, improve on my age group rankings and hopefully by then (or sooner) do my first full Ironman.

Why Use this type of Heat Lamp. A couple of years back a large barn in Culpepper, Virginia burned down, killing a lot of sheep. The cause of the barn fire was the old style heat lamp that a ewe knocked around, the bulb shattered, and started the fire. Consider using these Premier brand heat lamps.
Call Kathy Gordon, Sheepman Supply, 301-662-4197, with your questions and to order any special items in advance, so they arrive in time for the Open House.
Sheep and goat producers — you can join the Frederick County Sheep Breeders (FCSB) at this event. The FCSB's has members from 6 counties, and a few members from PA, VA, and WVA. Even have a few members who don't have any sheep or goats — they are into fleeces, wool, spinning, yarns, and woolen products.
Also, pick up your 2015-2016 Frederick County Sheep Breeder Directories — and meet fellow shepherds.
Go to the Sheepman Supply website for their full product line. And if you don't see what you need, contact Kathy Gordon, 301-662-4197.

@ the Howard County Fairgrounds, barn 7-8
May 2 @ 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm
Are your genetics producing the well-muscled lambs you want, and improving your breeding stock?
Enter your best well-muscled lambs (ram lambs, ewe lambs, and wethers) in the 2015 Carcass Contest. This is a live lamb evaluation where ultrasound technology is used to determine the size of a lamb's loin eye.

Carcass Contest info. and entry forms are in the 2015 MD Sheep & Wool Festival catalog, and on the MS&WF website. Minimum weight is 80 lbs. Best lamb weights are the 115 to 130 lb. range. Make sure your lambs have decent back-fat. Most lambs are disqualifed due to low a back-fat measurement of less than .10 inches.
Every entry that meets the Carcass Contest criteria receives either $50.00, $35.00, or $25.00. Make sure your lambs have "good cover" — this means decent back-fat at a minimum of .10 inches.

5 Health Care Stocks Triggering 'Buys' This Week
You don't have to be an expert technical analyst to see what's going on in Pfizer (PFE - Get Report). Shares of the drug giant have been climbing higher in a well-defined uptrend for the better part of the last year -- and shares are up more than 14% year-to-date alone. Clearly, PFE is a relative strength leader in the healthcare sector right now.
So how do you trade it?
There's a glut of buyers sitting underneath that trend line support line in PFE -- and it's spurred reversals the last four times shares approached the trendline. Those support and resistance levels give us a high probability range for this stock to trade within. And as you might expect, the ideal time to be a buyer is on a bounce off of support.
When you're looking to buy a stock within a trend channel, buying after a bounce off of support makes sense for two big reasons: it's the spot where shares have the furthest to move up before they hit resistance, and it's the spot where the risk is the least (because shares have the least room to move lower before you know you're wrong). While that means that some patience will be required for an entry in Pfizer, that patience will pay off.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I've discussed in the past our family's evolution from throwing picture perfect birthday parties to establishing birthday traditions instead. Recently C turned four and this year was no exception.
We celebrated him by sharing dollar store trinkets with his preschool class, embarking on a special outing to the Space Needle and Seattle's monorail, having dinner at his favorite restaurant with the grandparents, and letting him help make his birthday cake. There was a present or two thrown in there for good measure as well.
Today I wanted to share with you guys the DIY birthday cake we made him – which was a repeat of last year's cake per his request. Honestly, he loves it so much I wouldn't be surprised if there's a three-peat showing next year too. The fabulous thing about this cake is that it looks amazing with VERY little effort and if you happen to have a construction vehicle fiend at home like I do, he (or she) will absolutely love it.
To make your own construction cake, you'll need two things:
- A plain cake from your local bakery in the flavor of your little one's choice. (If you have a Costco nearby, I highly recommend the chocolate version shown above. It's very big and rich so it will feed a ton of people. Plus the height is perfect for this kind of cake and I think the large chocolate shavings kind of add to the demolition zone look. Plus it's a total steal at only $17!)
- 3 – 5 mini construction vehicles. Last year we ordered these from Amazon. This year I just picked some up at Toys R Us.
To assemble, simply cut a chunk out of the cake and arrange the construction vehicles on it to appear as though they're working on it – dig down with the shovels, plunge in with the fork lifts, etc. If you're not looking to surprise your little one, it's fun to let them help set up the scene.
And there's one more added bonus to this cake. Because of it's disheveled appearance, you can use it for more than one party and no one will ever know! Last year, on C's birthday we went to a sensory art class with a few friends and shared this cake after. The next day we just cut a bigger section out of the cake, rearranged the vehicles a bit and we were all set for our extended family celebration.
Will you guys try this? Have any birthday recipes of your own that you fall back on year after year
P.S. Looking for more ways to simplify and save time so you can connect with your family this year?

I'm looking for snowboarding pants for my two boys 6 and 8 for next year. The prices are a little steep for my budget, so I'm wondering if you offer any good sales. I'm aware that they offer "room to grow" but wondering if/when would be a good time to check back on some great sales? Thanks!
David Thiel
I have two boys (now 8 and 10) and over the years I keep going further and further down market for snow pants. This year they each got a pair of closeouts that were $29. For next year, we already picked up some closeouts at Target for $7 a pair! They beat the hell out of them, so new pair each season works anyway.
Bottom line is that their long johns and socks will matter a lot more than the ski pants themselves. Spend there (long johns are cheap, but the socks will cost you!) and then just get cheap stuff for the outside layer. Buy black and no one will know whether they are brand name or not...

Bill, Thanks for your response. As I read your message, I wonder about some descrepancies between our records. The list of children from James Samuel and Elizabeth we each have has some difference. My Aunt Elsie gathered most of her information from other much older family members (some of them in-laws), and of course it is very possible that their memories were not quite correct. My Aunt Elsie lived in Wisconsin for several years, and did research some records of some kind, but I don't know what. Most of the information I have I cannot prove. As I mentioned to Joan in my e-mail to her yesterday, My Aunt Elsie gave me a picture of Captain James Samuel and a woman my mother told me she thought was his second wife, name unknown. On the back of the picture it says: "Civil War Capt. James Samuel DeGroff came from France to Waldo Wisconsin with 3 brothers in early 1800. Went to Striker, Ohio where he married Elizabeth Sours. This picture is taken in K.C.K. around 12th & Bunker. Woman is 2nd wife. Name unknown." I also have a picture (of two pictures) of him with his first wife, Elizabeth (Sours/Sowers). I would be happy to scan these pictures, but first have to learn how to send attachments to e-mail. I also sent your mother all the information I have from the copy of the family tree my Aunt gave me before she died. I am sorry I have no other information. My mother and all her siblings are dead now, and I don't have anyone older in the family to ask more information. Regards. Sharon

Ford Expedition Stalling Problems
Posts: 5
in Ford
I have 2001 Expedition that the enigne will occasionally surge while coming to a stop. It seems as if you were stepping on the accelerator when you actually aren't.
It also has an intermitten vibration at medium speeds. The vibration feels as though you are driving over groves in the road.
Any ideas?
It also has an intermitten vibration at medium speeds. The vibration feels as though you are driving over groves in the road.
Any ideas?
bbrebner Posts: 7My 03 Exp. has suddenly started shutting down while I'm driving! There's no warning, and it starts right back up again, but I loose all power, and have to coast off the road to restart it. I took it to the dealership, and they found nothing. Told me to just keep driving till I break down!!! (Seriously????) I've seen several posts on different sites about the same problem, but no real answers. Any ideas???Thanks!!
bbrebner Posts: 7So, just to answer my own question... The car crapped out again yesterday. Made it into the delership (barely!) and it had finally tripped the computer. They were able to trace it to a bad wire harness. Apparently they've been having problems with them on Expeditions. (Would have been nice if the word had gotten out to some of the dealerships!!) Anyway, they have my car now, and hopefully replacing this will solve my problem!
stine Posts: 4WE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH OUR 2003 FORD EXPEDITION. THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING TWICE. THE FIRST TIME WE TOOK IT IN, AND FORD SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. THE SECOUND TIME, IT HAS BEEN AT FORD FOR OVER 1 WEEK, WITH THEM DRIVING OUR EXPEDITION AND PUTTING ON 200 MILES OR SO, ON IT. WE GOT A CALL BACK, SAYING THAT THEY STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG, AND THEY ARE DONE LOOKING FOR THE PROBLEM, AND TO COME PICK UP YOUR VEHICLE. SO WE ARE NOW DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE, AND THEY DO NOT CARE. WE ONLY HAVE 40,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. WE TOLD FORD ABOUT THE WIRE HARNESS PROBLEM, THAT WAS REPORTED, BUT THEY DO NOT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT. PLEASE HELP. WE NEED TO FIND THE DEALERSHIP, WHO FIXED THE OTHER 2003 EXPEDITION. PLEASE HELP SOON, WE ARE DRIVNG A TICKING TIME BOMB, WITH 4 KIDS.
stine Posts: 4HELP. MY WIFE, AND 4 KIDS ARE DRIVING IN A TICKING TIME BOMB. THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED TWICE WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AN BOTH TIMES, CLOSE TO SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. FORD SAYS THEY DO NOT WANT TO SPEND THE TIME FINDING THE PROBLEM, AND WE ARE FORCED TO DRIVE IT. HWLP IN APPLE VALEY
guest Posts: 774It took some time to figure out what was causing my Expedition to stall, because it never triggered the computer. I brought it in, and they couldn't figure it out. I was told to just keep driving it, until it really started acting up, and hopefully triggering the computer. I hated it, but had no choice. I kept driving, and sure enough, it kept stalling. Finally, it stalled 3 times in one morning, while driving. The last one, right in front of the dealership, triggered the computer. They were able to diagnose a "bad wire harness", which Ford apparently has a warning out on, and they replaced it. They even paid for all but $100, because I had low mileage on the vehicle. I took it to Pacific Coast Ford in Federal Way, Wa. 800-644-1021. Good luck. I know how scary it is to drive your family around in an unsafe car!!
stine Posts: 4THANKS FOR THE INFO ON THE DEALERSHIP, ETC. I CALLED AND GOT ALL THE INFO. THE FORD DEALERSHIPSUNLAND FORD IN VICTORVLLE CALIFORNIA, DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ANY INFO THAT I GAVE THEM FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I GAVE THEM THE CODE THAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR WIRE HARNESS. I GAVE THEM ALL THE INFO. THEY DO NOT CARE. THEY SAID TO KEEP DRIVING IT. I SO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO, AND HOPE THAT WE DO NOT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE FORD DEALSERSHIP IS NOT INTERESTED IN FIXING THE PROBLEM. IF THEY DO NOT GET A CADE THEMSELVES, THEY WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE DETERMINED THAT WE WILL NO LONGER BUY ANYTHING TO DUE WITH FORD AGAIN, CARS, ETC. CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NOT WORTH IT. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE INFO. I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED.
tripletmom1 Posts: 1I am having the same problem of stalling with my 2003 Expedition I see where you say it is a bad wire harness. What does this mean? Where is it? We were told it sounded like a dirty air mass flow sensor.
I was driving 65mph the other night and it just shut off. I coasted to the side of the road. Put car in park, turned key off and it started right up. -
bbrebner Posts: 7I'm not exactly sure where the wire harness is, but Ford know's that there is a problem with it. They've not had enough reports to call a recall on it, but enough that they replaced mine for free. I would go to your local dealership and have them do a search on the faulty wire harness, and they certainly should be able to pull up some data on it. The situation you described sounds exactly what was happening to me. It started out sporatically, and then started to happen more frequently. On the day that it finally tripped the computer to come up with a diangostic code, it stalled 3 times in a 30 minute period, on being right in front of the dealership. I took it to the Ford Dealership in Federal Way Wa. (Pacific Coast Ford 800-644-1021) You could call there and see what information they could give you. They were very helpful.
Good luck! -
pr_4lyfe Posts: 3I've been having the same problems for several months. I've taken the Expedition to Ford several times and all they tell me is to rotate and balance my tires and do an alignment. Well I've done all the above and still feel the vibrations. I also took it to Good-Year to see if they could figure it and they said the vehicle was fine. Mine vibrates at the 40-50 speed.

pr_4lyfe Posts: 3Well, the engine light came on last week. I took it to Advanced Auto Parts and the machine said that the error code was a misfire on cylinder 6. I took it to Ford and they gave me an outrageous quote so I took it to Goodyear. Apparently, the coils needed replacement. I've been driving the Expedition for 5 days and there hasn't been vibrations or shuttering.

pr_4lyfe Posts: 3Well, if you go to Advanced or Goodyear, they will only be able to pull up the current Check Engine Light... not previous codes that are stored. I heard there might be an overlooked issue. The radiator hose above the coils/spark plugs might crack and slowly leak onto the coils causing them to go bad... if your coils are bad and you get them fixed... try looking for a crack in the hoses... you might have one.
orlando32817 Posts: 9Can you tell me what the diagnostic P code was. I seem to be having a similar problem with mine and had replaced the fuel filter and plugs. It works better now because the filter was partially clogged and the plugs were worn. After I did that the truck would still hesitate but does it less often. I did try to force the issue by hard acceleration and found it seems to happen more often when I try to do a U turn. In that case it actually stalled. I then was able to restart right away and keep driving. In my case I am wondering if the problem is the harness where the left U turn shifts/stretches the harness to make it intermittant or there is still dirt in the fuel tank clogging up the inlet screen sometimes on turns. I pulled the new fuel filter off the truck again and blew thru it and found that was clear still with a full tank of gas.
bbrebner Posts: 7I don't know what the diagnostic code was. You can call the dealership that I used, (number in previous posts from me)and they might be able to tell you. I also replaced the fuel filter, etc. but it did not fix the problem. And, like you, my car seemed to stall more after making a turn. It sounds pretty similar to the same problem I was having.'
It had to get pretty bad before it finally triggered the computer though. When it finally did, it had stalled 3 times in a one hour period. That was the worst it had ever been, and that's when it finally came up with a code they could read.
Best of luck~

masinils Posts: 1Orlando32817,
Were you able to find the diagnostic code. Mine did the same thing today when turning onto a ramp off of a highway, but no light came on. I lost all power and had to coast to the side. Put vehicle into park and turned it off. Then turned it back on and it started right up. No lights or error codes came on... please help ! -

kevarn Posts: 1I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY EXP. STALLS & LOSES POWER LIKE ITS RUNNING ON HALF THE CYLINDERS. STALLS WHEN I'M DRIVING, SO I POP IT IN TO NUETRAL TURN THE KEY OFF & BACK ON QUICK TO START IT BACK UP & IT RUNS FINE FOR THE TIME BEING. THANK GOD THIS HASN'T HAPPENED TO MY WIFE YET! I LIVE ON LONG ISLAND & HAVENT CALLED A DEALER YET, BUT AFTER READING EVERYBODIES POSTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM I WILL BE TO LET THEM KNOW. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND FORD NEEDS TO BE INFORMED MORE AND ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS IMMEDIATELY. I DID HAVE CODES P0354,P0355,P0356,P0358 PULLED UP BY AUTOZONE. DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT THESE CODES MEAN?
bbrebner Posts: 7I sure don't know what the codes mean, but Ford would know. I would just put some heat on your local dealership to do a search on the information that I've posted already. The problem exists, and they know about it. Why they haven't just posted a recall, I have no idea. I was in several unsafe situations with my car when it would just shut off on me. I tow a 3 horse trailer, and it quit on me once while doing that!! I think at first they just thought I was a neurotic woman, but soon realized that it was the car that was crazy, not me!!
Best of luck~ -

here what daves1955 said
I got a call from dealer two this afternoon. Apparently there is a TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) that covers this problem. According to the TSB there is an electrical lead that runs around the power steering pump and oil pressure sending unit. The electrical lead may rub the power steering unit and cause a short to ground.
According to the service adviser they put some heat shrink on the electrical lead and ran the vehicle over the past two days. They did not experience the cutting out at idle.
Also according to the service advisor the problem with the electrical lead can cause any of the following.
Hard starting condition.
No starting condition.
Rough idle.
Cut out at idle.
Cut out when cornering.
The total repair bill is 79.00 for one hour of labor.
Since I am out of town this week and next, my wife will pick the vehicle up this weekend and take it for a ride to deterrmine the outcome. Hopefully the problem is solved.
he later said that fixed it. I am going to try to find what TSB that is and get more details. But i think i can find where the short is now based on that info above. -

orlando32817 Posts: 9Ok guys I finally figured out what was the hesitation cause for my 2003 expedition 4.6L. In my case it turned out to be bad coils. Since it didnt throw a code which one was bad I replaced them all. That fixed it. It would be to expensive to have the dealer troubleshoot which ones are bad (lot of time) or replace them all (at over $60 each dealer price) so I elected to get an aftermarket set of 8 units from ebay for $110 (130 with shipping). After I put them in the problem finally went away. I will however let you all know what I did before that to troubleshoot the problem.
0)checked the check engine light code (was P0430 bad converter?) Yea right!!! dealer repair $1800. I didnt do that yet.
1)Changed fuel filter (was slightly plugged anyway after 90,000)
2)Changed spark plugs (looked good but fairly worn)
3)cleaned idle control valve (idled smooth before and after)
4)removed butterfly air plenum and EGR valve and cleaned EGR VALVE and AIR passageways (slightly clogged passages)
5) I added a fuel pressure monitor gage to verify the fuel pressure stayed constant during the hesitation. (it avererages 30-40 psi with vacuum hose connected to fuel regulator and nearly 60 psi when removed)
6)I tried "capping" the vacuum tubes to the fuel regulator,egr,evaporaative control valves to verify that none of them add or cause the hesistation. (they did not)
7)Checked throttle control sensor restance was smooth and constant. (no dead spots)
8)even dropped the gas tank to check for dirt on pump pickup filter screen( no dirt was clean)
9)replaced PCV vlave and rebuilt pcv hose assembly with plastic elbows since origianal rubber ones were collapsing (no improvement on hesistation)
10) did the TSB where the oil sending unit cable is covered with plastic tube and had the PCM reflashed with later firmware (no improvment but was supposed to help with hesistation due to alterantor/pcm interaction)
11) Replaced all coil on plug coils with aftermarket substitutes. (problem solved!!!!!!) check ebay.
So besides doing the easy stuff (PCV and hose, gas filter,plugs,firware,etc) I would go put the coils with the plugs since I now find that they fail in a very soft way where they tend to fool you with that intermittancy when they cut out sometimes once in 50 miles or more. I measured the restance of my old coils and new ones and they all meaure about 5500 to 6500 ohms on the secondary and old ones looked perfectly fine go figure.

This bird house is so great - it is large enough to hold a 20 pound bag of birdfood. It looks nice and was easy to install on our 4 x 4 post. The birds are thrilled - there is room for 4 birds on one side of the feeder! The last feed I had lasted 16 + years. I think this one go longer than that. I had been looking for a new feeder for a couple of years and this was exactly what I wanted.
This feeder will hold a 35 pound bag of bird seed. The quality is very good. Great value for price and size.
I was looking for a high capacity bird feeder that would hold enough feed to last a couple of months between filling. This wood feeder holds a lot of black oil sunflower seed ~ 12 ibs. It is well made with screws vs staples. I put a couple coats of outdoor poly on it before filling it and hanging for the birds. The birds, squirrels, and chipmunks all enjoy their new feeder.
This birdfeeder should get me and my bird friends through many, many seasons. I feed year round and the birds have plenty of room to share, plus the squirrels which we don't mind at all. We enjoy watching them too and what they throw on the ground our ground feeding birds enjoy. I am hanging mine and I only wish that they would have included a strap to hold it up securely. I have mine hanging by a bungee cord and I screwed hooks on each end for the cords to hang by. This works fine. It would be really great on a post because of the weight once filled. I haven't had to fill it the whole way yet as it holds a lot of food which lasts a couple of weeks without even filling it a third of the way full. Enjoy!
YES, it is definitely XL ! But, the construction is good and we mounted ours on a post so other animals wouldn't bother the bird food and so far it's working. It holds a LOT of food so you don't have to fill as often. I'm liking it more every day. It looks nice in our yard and will feed many birds for a while!
The birdfeeder I got is just great. I'm from Wisconsin, moved to Florida 8 years ago. I needed a new feeder and couldn't find one suitable anywhere. Thanks to Overstock came through. I'm very pleased. Thank you. June

Rip and insert into my body
Even if to flash before the eyes

Even the trembling of the body form the cold.
Holding the dreading heart
Holding the dreading with trembling
The wonderful life will open up today
Although I am starring in a ditch
You are living a completely different life.

Don't demand me
Now please step over and pass my thy dirty body
Don't look down anymore
Look forward to the life you're living
Just step over me and pass my.

It is not official yet, but the recent comments to the D.O.W. about the new 5 year plan for the hunting seasons do not want non resident hunters and wants to severely limit them as far as allocating licenses to the non-resident hunter for the next five years in Colorado. http://wildlife.state.co.us/ is the website to check out and then click to Hunting and the 5 yr. plan. Any comments??
I supported the status quo across the board.
I tossed my two cents to the wind back here on the draft policy.
I don't see why the DOW (and the majority that left input) feel the need to move to an 80/20 split. The bottom line is that residents alone will not get the job done on elk and fewer NR's will leave more elk in the field year after year.
There is no reason for this NR reduction other than the yammering of the small but vocal anti-NR crowd. Its about politics, not game management.
The DOW has already taken steps to reduce NR participation in recent years:
-> Doubling the bull tag cost in 2001.
-> Locking out NR's from RFW draw tags in 2003.
I agree with you. It does not make sense to me how they can make decisions like this on the NR.
Not to mention the simple and obvious fact that NR tags are CONSIDERABLY more expensive than resident tags. I see no reason/benefit to limit the numbers of NR hunters.
Well, let me say that I think resident hunters should have first dibs on hunting opportunities.
As an example, the opportunities to hunt moose here in Colorado are extremely limited, simply because the herd is very small. As such, every year, all available tags are sold out and there are more people who WANT to hunt moose than CAN hunt them. In this circumstance, I think it is only right and proper that residents get almost all of the tags. The opportunities should be going to them, not to non-residents.
Having said that, the situation is completely different as regards elk. It has been several years since hunters have taken the target number. Herds are large and getting larger. The DOW needs MORE elk taken than hunters are taking. In this circumstance it only makes sense to open up the hunting to almost as many people as possible.
Like bitmasher said, though, there are still a lot of Colorado residents who are essentially anti-non-resident. They really don't care about managing the herd. In a perfect world the DOW would only consider objective, scientific data and manage the herd appropriately. There isn't a wildlife department anywhere in this country, however, that isn't affected by politics and this is all about politics.
I have just a couple things to add, the first is that where NR tag are available and the state says the will issue say 27 NR tag for an area I expect to see 27 camps not 50 or 60.
I am sorry I just believe that some places should be left for resident only
The second is
The issuing of NR tags to help control a herd population is all well and good as long as the management doesn't turn to trophy hunt program dictated by the NR hunter populations or NR revenues.
I as a resident could care less if a buck is BC class; I would just as soon eat a doe or a forky
For to many resident and non residents the quality of the hunt is based on the size, not the experience
What always seems to get lost in this debate, and a disagree with you captcee a bit, is that the big reason you hear about people wanting a bigger animal is BECAUSE they have to pay an arm and a leg to get the opportunity. I guarantee you there are a lot of guys like me who would love to go to many of the western states "just for the experience" and personally I still do. But when someone has to pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars-JUST FOR THE TAG-it becomes a vey expensive "vacation" if you don't get a larger animal. Personally, I think, and some states may be doing part of this, that the states should lower the NR tag costs in some parts of the state and charge the higher rates in the "trophy" sections of the state. That DOESN'T preclude the other sections from having nice sized animals since you still control the number and type of tags available. I think this would make more people happy and accomplish the states goals. Just a thought...
"...the big reason you hear about people wanting a bigger animal is BECAUSE they have to pay an arm and a leg to get the opportunity."
You're absolutely right. I think the approach that Colorado has taken recently, where the fee for an NR cow elk license is half the cost of a bull license, is a good way to go. The plain fact is, if you want NRs to NOT be strictly trophy hunters then you have to offer them enough licenses at a low enough cost that they'll be willing to view the hunt almost the same way residents do.
I agree with you 100%. This method would work I beleive and would benefit all hunters, NR and R's.
75% of Wyoming's Game and Fish revenue comes from NRs money. I would bet NRs pay a sizable chunk of Colorado's bills also.
Lower the opportunities for NRs and you can bet you will see an increase in your own permits.
The number of hunters is dropping in my state (and probably yours) so I welcome all NRs to help share the costs and keep my permits reasonable.
There are NRs drawing our hard to get moose tags here also, but the fact that they will spend a small fortune to do so means I can afford to take my kids hunting.
Happy Huntin
.The number of hunters is dropping in my state (and probably yours) so I welcome all NRs to help share the costs and keep my permits reasonable.
I find this interesting because Idaho fish and game tries to pull the wool by saying the same thing when in reality it is not true.
Hunter numbers are up in fact way up compared to past years, however the hunter% to population is down do to large population growth in the cities.
So is hunter population really down? No
Are NR hunter populations down? No
Has the quality of our hunts changed? Yes.
I can remember hunting back in the 60, 70 when they say hunter populations were at there highest
You were lucky if you seen 10 people in a week. Now days you see that many in an hour
Many disrespectful louts that should stay in town

My Story? Well let see I'm a regular guy, I'm your typical successful business owner, financially and emotionally stable The philosophy I live by is if it gives you that adrenaline rush, in or out of bed, it was worthwhile. I've reached the point where I can look back and say I've done well... but there's more to do. I tend to be pretty normal and down-to-earth. I look forward to whatever life brings. I'm not changing my life, I'm celebrating it by moving on to bigger and better things. Well lets be honest isn't that the typical bland stuff everyone in here pretty much writes? well in this case it is all true lol But honestly i am far from typical and not one for writing my life story online either. But i will say that if someone is interested they will ask and i will answer so there goes the beginning of getting to know each other. But unfortunately we have become too fast food like in life where we glance over a profile and don't look deeper to the person then what they choose to write. But in all fairness i am going to say the person that is really interested can ask all you want I'm a open book. Or you reach me via I.M Latino_in_miami73 at the yh00 This would be the best way to really get to know me first hand. My Perfect Match? Someone that is real and not ghetto or living in fantasy land. A woman that is just that a woman but can have a little girl inside I believe we all need to still have our inner child living in us. But what it all comes down to is a sexy inside and out, intellectual, honest, and most of all a loving romantic. And someone that works out or at the very least take care of them selves . I'm not looking for a super model but i do go to the Gym about 5-6 days a week and take care of myself. So i would like someone that could go with me or at the very least not be insecure about me going. " lol this has been a issue in the past and i don't like stumbling over the same rock again lol " My Ideal Date? we can talk about about that once you qualify to the above standards. i know that if she with me it will be ideal.
