I have decided to use the old mat from the kids trampoline. I figure it is pretty good for UV, and possibly stronger than the shade cloth. I spoke to my wifes' friend today, and she is happy to sew it for me. So I will get some UV stable thread and some new needles and see how we go.
Cheers Chippy :D

Boyds, MD — A recent survey commissioned by The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility, a national not-for-profit organization funded by America's leading distilled spirits producers, revealed that nearly half of all mothers think underage drinking is acceptable under some circumstances. The survey found that mothers of teenage daughters underestimate the occurrence of underage drinking among their own daughters and misjudge the seriousness of the issue.
To address this gap in knowledge and to fight underage drinking in Montgomery County, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility, the Washington Freedom, the Maryland Soccer Foundation, and the Montgomery County Department of Liquor Control sponsored the launch of Girl Talk: Choices and Consequences of Underage Drinking which was kicked-off at a press conference at the Maryland Soccer Plex today. Participants included sponsor representatives as well as Coach Jim Gabarra of the Washington Freedom; Johanna Lohman, a native of Silver Spring and a current Washington Freedom player; and elected officials. Immediately following the press conference, the Mid-Atlantic Dairy Association, Washington Parent and Washington Women magazines sponsored a free mother-daughter soccer clinic in honor of Mother's Day weekend.
"The Washington Freedom is committed to community involvement and has chosen The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility and the Girl Talk program as one of our causes this summer," said Coach Gabarra. "Washington Freedom Players have followed their goals and dreams of playing sports — this has kept them away from alcohol. My players feel they can wield their influence to encourage preteen and teen girls to say no to underage drinking."
"The data from our recent survey reveal that mothers start out viewing underage alcohol consumption as a serious problem, yet as their daughters grow older mothers switch their message from "don't do it" to "be safe"; this illustrates a disturbing misperception among moms about the seriousness of problems associated with alcohol consumption by their teenage daughters. I hope to encourage moms to have conversations with their teenage daughters about the negative effects and dangers of underage drinking," said Ralph Blackman, President and CEO, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility. "We are delighted to be here today to also highlight the Washington Freedom players as good role models and provide a fun and healthy opportunity for moms and daughters to focus on this important issue."
"Young girls need to be informed of the toll that underage drinking can take not only on their health but also on their grades and reputations. My teammates and I want all of the young girls out there who look up to us as role models to know that underage drinking is wrong. Teen girls need to know that their mothers want what is best for them and I encourage moms and daughters to talk about all the reasons why underage drinking is a bad decision," said Johanna Lohman, Washington Freedom Soccer Player. Significant survey findings include the following:
Mothers significantly underestimate daughter's experience with alcohol
• 16% of 13-15 year old girls say they drink with friends, only 5% of their mothers think their daughters are drinking;
• 30% of 16-18 year old girls say they drink with friends, only 9% of their mothers think their daughters are drinking;
• 51% of 19-21 year old girls say they drink with friends and only 32% of their mothers think their daughters are drinking.
Alarmingly, mothers say underage drinking is acceptable
• Nearly half (49%) of mothers of teenage girls say it is okay for their daughters to drink;
• 38% of mothers say it is okay for their daughters to drink on special occasions;
• 21% of mothers say it is okay to drink under parental supervision at home;
• 20% of mothers say drinking alcohol is a natural part of growing up.
71% of Girls Think Health Consequences Serious
When asked how serious they thought health risks were for teens that drink, 71% of the girls polled stated that they believe the health risks associated with drinking are serious. Putting a finer point on their concerns, the research also uncovered "the five strongest health-consequences that would keep teens from drinking alcohol" according to survey responses of teenage girls ages 13-18. Among the health consequences they identified are the following:
|Alcohol poisoning/overdose
|Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)/HIV-AIDS
|Unsafe/unplanned sex
|Harm to mental development
|Harm to physical development
|Weight gain or weight loss
Girl Talk: Choices and Consequences of Underage Drinking
In the face of these data, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility created Girl Talk: Choices and Consequences of Underage Drinking to improve dialogue among mothers and daughters. Developed in partnership with the Society for Women's Health Research and the National Alcohol Beverage Control Association, Girl Talk will help mothers initiate and sustain conversations about alcohol.
"Daughters report these conversations should continue through high school when, as the data show, underage consumption of alcohol increases. Sadly, many mothers appear not to be initiating these conversations. The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility is working to address that problem," said State Senator Robert Garagiola (D-15). "I am proud to bring this program to Montgomery County to keep our young girls safe and alcohol-free."
Girl Talk utilizes the data gleaned from the survey including those health consequences of most concern to the girls. Girl Talk also highlights the daughters' advice to their moms regarding talking about underage drinking. Girls participating in the survey responded that:
• Moms must be approachable, able to keep an open mind and must not lecture or overreact — "just because I am asking about alcohol does not mean I am drinking alcohol."
• Moms: Keep the conversation real and personal by telling about your own personal and real-life experiences, choices and consequences, and if you don't want to talk about yourself, share the experiences of people you know.
• Be my parent, not my friend. Share your values and set the rules and discuss the social risks of underage drinking beyond just drunk driving.
The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility has developed a comprehensive program tailored specifically for mothers and daughters including:
• A website, www.girlsanddrinking.org, for mothers and daughters with additional information on how to have the underage drinking conversation and links to additional national and local resources related to underage drinking.
• Booklets for mothers, detailing how to begin the conversation, sustain the conversation and have an impact as well as information explaining the facts about alcohol, and addressing issues such as peer pressure and creative ways to say "no" to alcohol.
• A Blog, hosted by the Society for Women's Health, for moms and daughters to discuss their experiences and connect with others on this issue. The Blog will be available in late May.
"We have a long history of working with The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility on educational programs and Girl Talk is just another example of an excellent program for Montgomery County. The Montgomery County Department of Liquor Control will facilitate the distribution of materials and messages related to this important project," said Director George Griffin. "According to the 2003 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (SAMHSA), nearly 17.1% of 12-17 year olds (boys and girls) reported past month alcohol consumption in Maryland, an increase over 9% since 2000. The entire community must make an effort to fight underage drinking."
Additionally, the US Women's National Soccer Team Players Association will partner with The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility on this initiative. The National Soccer Team Players Association will endorse Girl Talk through personal appearances at functions and schools, in print and online media, public service announcements and other integrated marketing initiatives. Through its official fan club alone, The Ponytail Posse, the US Women's National Soccer Team Players Association has the potential to reach millions of girls around the world.
About the Surveys
The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility commissioned Teenage Research Unlimited (TRU) to conduct a comprehensive research project to better understand the dynamics of underage drinking among mothers and daughters. TRU fielded a study April 2005 among a national on-line sample - a total of 875 respondents (496 daughters and 379 mothers, 322 of the matching) completed the questionnaire. Quotas were set to ensure that a representative number of daughters (and mothers) from each of the following age segments completed the survey: 13-15 year olds, 16-18 year olds, and 19-20 years olds. The mother-daughter results presented here reflect the matched mother and daughter data collected. TRU conducted an additional self-administered online omnibus survey, OmnibuzzTM, among 802 13 to 18 year olds in August 2005. The data were weighted for key demographic variables (gender, age, ethnicity, parent education, region and community-type of place of school) to reflect the national population. The margin of error for both survey samples at the 95 percent confidence level is + 3 percentage points. That is, if this survey were to be replicated 100 times, in 95 instances the results would be within three percentage points of the data reported here.
The Washington Freedom
The Washington Freedom, featuring Mia Hamm, was the 2003 Championship team in the WUSA, the world's premier professional women's soccer league. When the league ceased operations in the Fall of 2003, the coaching staff stayed together, and with the support of Discovery founder John Hendrick's they formed the Washington Freedom Soccer Club, with the mission of offering programming and development of soccer talent from 8-year-old girls up to the elite level of play. In anticipation that women's professional soccer will return when the WUSA re-launches in the future, 2006 will be the third season of exhibition games for the Freedom and last year the team was ranked as the 10th best club team in the world by an independent ranking service.Seven home games will be played at the Maryland SoccerPlex in Germantown, MD beginning with a match-up against the W-League's Ottawa Fury on May 20th. For more information, please call the Freedom office at 443-259-0020 or log on to www.washingtonfreedom.com.
The Society for Women's Health Research
The Society for Women's Health Research is the nation's only non-profit organization whose mission is to improve the health of all women through research, education and advocacy. Founded in 1990, the Society brought to national attention the need for the appropriate inclusion of women in major medical research studies and the need for more information about conditions affecting women disproportionately, predominately, or differently than men. The Society advocates increased funding for research on women's health; encourages the study of sex differences that may affect the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease; promotes the inclusion of women in medical research studies; and informs women, providers, policy makers and media about contemporary women's health issues. Visit the Society's website at www.womenshealthresearch.org for more information.
US Women's National Soccer Team Players Association
The US Women's National Soccer Team Players Association was created after the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup to represent all the players that comprise the US Women's National Soccer Team, and give the US Soccer Federation the assurance that the new Uniform Player Agreement and Collective Bargaining Agreement would govern its relationship with the players through the 2004 Olympics. The Association has primarily functioned as a representation and negotiating body, and is now making greater efforts to promote its constituent players. More information can be found at: www.unitedsoccerathletes.com and www.ponytailposse.com.
National Alcohol Beverage Control Association (NABCA)
It is the mission of the National Alcohol Beverage Control Association (NABCA) to support and benefit alcohol control systems by providing research, fostering relationships, and managing resources to address policy for the responsible sale and consumption of alcohol beverages. Established in 1937, NABCA is the national association representing the Control States - those political jurisdictions that directly control the distribution and sale of beverage alcohol within their borders. Headquartered in the Washington, DC area, NABCA serves its members as an information clearinghouse and as liaison to federal, state and local governments, research and advocacy groups, the alcohol beverage industry, and other organizations impacting alcohol policy.
Launched in 1991, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility is funded by America's leading distillers. The Foundation's mission is to promote responsible decision-making regarding beverage alcohol and discourage all forms of irresponsible consumption through education, communications, research, law enforcement and other programs.

Thanks for your reply jdrou. I already tried the 'save', 'save as' and 'create new file by right clicking' options, but they didn't work. After renaming the filename was 1936.eug and the type still said text document. You say that you create a new file type for .eug. Do you mean folder options-file types-advanced and then choose a new name for eug?Originally Posted by jdrou
Anyway, I searched the internet for creating new file types and soon found 2 easy solutions for my problem. The first one is a tool called Tweak UI (microsoft downloads/powertoys and add-ins). With this tool you can change the menu that appears after right clicking and choosing 'new'. After installing click 'templates'. From here you can add and remove file types. To add the eug file type click 'create', navigate to a folder with an eug file, double click on the file, click OK. Now you can create new eug files.
The other solution: modify your eug file, choose 'save as' and place the name of the file you're going to save between " symbols. Now the type will be file and not text document. Rename the file (name.eug) and the type will change from file to eug.
So now I know how to save a modified eug file, but there still are problems:
* No matter what enddate I choose, the game always ends in 2199 (even when I use the original eug file). Is that normal?
* There are no scientist (there is another posting about this problem but no answer).
* There are postings from people having trouble with liberating nations and leaders. Does that mean that you always have to change more files when you use the no time limit mod? If yes, is there a list of all the files that must be modified?
I hope you (or someone else) can help me with this problems.

RYA and marinas: Berthing without embarrassment
By Sail-World Cruising/RYA, ,
7:17 AM Sun 6 May 2012
I've heard it said that sailing across an ocean is sometimes not as nerve racking as getting into a difficult berth without embarrassment. Just the fact that other boat owners are watching nervously is enough to put you off, not to mention the other marina wanderers who have nothing else to do but watch the berthing skills of the latest arrival. So one UK marina, with the RYA, has taken action ...[more]
Keep the romance in sailing with 10 common sense tips
By John Jamieson (and anonymous delivery skipper), ,
12:30 PM Mon 16 Apr 2012
Cruising sailing is not all about electronic gear, navigation, even sail plans...and the sailing won't go on being romantic unless backed up with practicality. These common sense tips come from a delivery sailor, who, like a cruising sailor, is not backward about wanting the magic of sailing without stress. The tips have developed over many years of passage sailing ...[more]

Don't like the ellipses or the phone-fingers?
And everyone here got an A in English, right?
"Aime la vérité, mais pardonne à l'erreur." - François-Marie Arouet (Voltaire)
I'm sure I did. Phones kill me on the typing at work.
And your 2 exceeds my 1.
My math is right.
Supposedly at the Super Bowl luncheon:
Benson: "what's the name again?"
Rita: "Hornets"
"Oh yeah we changin dat as soon as possible"
A in English. No way Jose. I am terrible in English, and I am sorry for all of you who have to read my thoughts.
I'm really going to miss seeing the Fleur-de-Bee on the hardwood.
With purple and pinstripes from days gone by, I trumpet Hugo's name to the NOLA sky. When rebranders and posers abuse their might, beware my power, TEAL LANTERN'S LIGHT!
Forever hating the nickname, the logos, and the colors. Still backing the team I've loved since 1994.
Stolen name. Stolen colors. Stolen identity. Still the same old worthless Slobcats. Suck sludge, Charlotte.
I know I'm an outsider, and I really do try to limit my posts here, but I thought y'all might be interested.
For the first time since all this craziness started, Jordan has specifically addressed a willingness to switch the name of his franchise to 'Hornets' when Benson pulls the trigger. The front office has offered vague/veiled implications that they'd be open to the change in the past, but never have they referenced Benson, NOLA, or the Hornets.
I think it's safe to say that he wouldn't be so forthright unless a deal was, for all intents and purposes, done. We're all ready to throw down up here
We Beelieve: Charlotte...Take Back Your Hornets! links:
I'm sure Benson's people have contacted them about a possible price tag on the brand. At the very least you just transfer the costs associated with rebranding on to Charlotte.
It will be a huge mistake if Benson pulls the trigger on a cheesy name change. Charlotte will jump on the Hornets brand so quick, and their fan base will double in seconds.
And the reason Charlotte taking back the Hornets name is bad for New Orleans is simple. The Hornets are a popular brand, and most national fans will jump ship back to Charlotte I presume. New Orleans will lose thousands of fans immediately from their fan base. I don't think calling them the Pelicans is going to turn locals from New Orleans into rabid basketball fanatics. To me, there doesn't seem to be any benefit of a name change.
Nothing to see here, just another generic fan whose allegiance is tied to a logo. You guys can feel free to go back rooting for the Charlotte Hornets. You won't be missed. Not by the other fans or by Benson and his piles and piles of money. Pretty sure an 85 year old couldn't care less about losing a few million on the margins and that's assuming his new brand doesn't sell like gangbusters throughout the Gulf South (which it probably will).

We go out of our way to carry every major line of Ford Ranger lifting block kits, so that whether you are looking for cheap lifting blocks or a high-end rear lift block kit or anything in between, we've got it for you. Andy's Auto Sport is the ultimate shopping destination for your Ford Ranger lift block kit needs!
Video Description:Lift Kits Buyer's Guide on Andy's Auto Sport TV!
There are lots of reasons to install a lift kit on your truck or SUV, including aesthetics and performance. In this video, we'll show you the basics of how lift kits work, as well as typical lift kit components. Highlights include:
*At 0:43, we explain the benefits of increased ground clearance and suspension articulation.
*At 1:10, we talk about lift blocks and how they can raise the rear of your truck.
*At 1:48, we go over lifted leaf springs and add-a-leafs, which essentially convert your existing leaf springs into lifted springs.
*At 2:09, we explain lift crossmembers, which essentially lower the mounting points of your suspension, effectively raising the front of your truck or SUV.
*At 2:17, we talk about how lift spindles/knuckles raise the front of your truck by changing the location of the front hub mounting points.
*At 2:22, we talk about how lift springs are a simple way to raise a truck or SUV with an IFS or IRS suspension.
*At 2:28, we explain how lift torsion keys replace factory torsion keys to raise the front of your truck or SUV.
*At 2:37, we talk about coil spacer kits, which are an economical way to lift many trucks and SUVs.
*At 3:09, we talk about other options when lifting your vehicle, including straight axle conversions and coilover conversions.
*At 3:30, we discuss upgrading your wheels and tires to complement your new lift, and how installing a taller tire will give you even more ground clearance.
*At 5:02, we talk about how to determine what type of lift components to buy for your vehicle, and we begin the installation of a RevTek coil spacer lift kit on our project Toyota 4Runner.
*At 6:33, we install a Fabtech eight-inch lift kit on our project Ford F250.
*At 9:42, we explain how to shop for lift kits here at AndysAutoSport.com.
*At 10:07, we finally get to have some fun with our F250 and 4Runner by running them through some mud and tough terrain!
A lift block is a simple device that can raise your vehicle's ride height by acting as a spacer between the leaf spring and the axle. Aftermarket lift block kits have some big advantages over other forms of lift. They are simple to install, inexpensive, and they retain your original springs so that you do not get a harsh ride like you would from severely arched leaf springs. So if you are on a budget but dying to add some larger meats, a lift block setup will let you achieve your goals without spending a lot of money. And if for some reason you want to restore your ride height back to stock, lift block kits are easily removable as well.

Personally my favorite chair offered on site. Inspired by the human vertebrae, the Verte combines ergonomics, form and function to produce the ultimate in seating posture and comfort.

All you need to do is flip a lever, put each 'rib' right where you want it, and flip the lever again to lock. If you need a little more pressure at one spot, simply push that one 'rib' in a bit further, or out if you need less pressure!

Aside from the pocket, Pink has included an extra fabric loop to keep wires out of sight and close to your body.

Yesterday there was news that OpenACC 2.0 parallel programming support was coming to GCC complete with GPU acceleration support for NVIDIA GPUs. While it was exciting on the surface, it appears that this work may be poisonous and could have a very tough time making it upstream...
Linus doing his thing to Nvidia is, once again, relevant.
Uhh oh. Just days after NVIDIA sends Michael a few thousand bucks worth of high-end GPUs, already he's sailing them down the river with this kind of FUD.
I can't even tell what, exactly, has this "trusted contact"'s panties all bunched up.
And the comment about Nouveau was especially amusing. Who would use that driver for OpenACC and CUDA work? Who thinks this stuff up?
It reminds me of that one story everyone runs around and loves to quote, about how NVIDIA lost a big deal in China and AMD won it because they have open drivers... and yet there isn't a single shred of factual evidence to actually support the story. (Like, maybe, an AMD SEC filing indicating massive income?)
Well, it was a mistake to send any hardware to a shameless Michael Larabel, he repays in kind by backstabbing Nvidia with lies from "trusted source". BULLSHIT. Michael Larabel, please return all of Nvidia's GeForce 700 cards, you don't deserve to test or benchmark them, period.

Thread: Space Opera recommendations?

Space Opera recommendations?
I'm kind of new to the science fiction genre, and while the ideas interest me, the books usually seem to be lacking in character depth. Do you know of any really good Space Opera books/series that feature strong characters and character development?
Also, I don't want any books that are overtly sexual.

Just came to search around for some too. I've been in a space opera mood and just ordered Leviathan Wakes, I'm looking for some other titles.

Nevermind, I somehow skipped over the part where you want to avoid anything overly sexual

How was the characterization in Leviathan? Was there any character development? Also, was it well-written? Sorry. I'm just looking for a well-written book; seems like SF gets too carried away (for my tastes) with the technology of it all. Just give me a well-written story with good characters.

Just my opinion, but Hamilton's space opera is in another league vs. Levian Wakes in my view. Leviathan Wakes may not even make the top 5 sci-fi books of the year in the ongoing poll, whereas we still talk about Hamilton long after his stuff came out.
Leviathan Wakes is a well written book with A- level mystery (for part of the book), B+ charachters, B Space Opera (in system faction fighting), B+ pacing/action, and C- for the very unoriginal and silly science fiction idea underlying the reveal. I enjoyed the book, but will not automatically buy the sequel without reading reviews because it seems the unoriginal (and silly) sci-fi idea is going to play a much bigger role in the sequels. The what is really going on reveal is roughly as realistic as Umbrella Corporation's work on the T-virus.
In fairness though, the book may still be on sale for 2.99, AND it works as a stand-alone, even though sequels are planned. I do recommend it, just not to the same degree as Pandora's Star/Judas Unchained or the Reality Dysfunction.

Scottish Tasting
- Written by Super User
Flavor of Scotland in Salado
While you are here in Salado for the Highland Games and Gathering of the Clans, The Range invites you to two events that will feature some of the best flavors of Scotland.
Owner and executive chef Dave Hermann has planned a special selection menu for this weekend reflecting the flavors of Scotland. The Scottish Menu dinner is $34.95. The menu includes a Scotch egg appetizer -- a soft cooked egg wrapped in herbed pork mince, fried crispy with garlic Aioli. Entree will be a choice of pan-seared Scottish salmon served over braised greens, green onion potato pancakes and herb beurre blac or a rack of lamb with fresh root vegetables and potato scones. Dessert will be Cranachan, a double cream with Jameson raspberries and toasted oatmeal.
If your taste of Scotland is a little more -- spirited -- then you will want to take part in the Scotch tasting at The Lounge at the Range throughout the weekend beginning at 2 p.m. daily Nov. 9-11. The Scotch tasting will feature the finest from Glenmorangie. Tickets are $30 per person. The Scotch tasting will include a flight of three scotches from Glenmorangie: Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban, Glenmorangie Lasanta and Glenmorangie Nectar D'or.
Reservations for either can be made here or by calling 254-947-3828.

Volunteers paint Families in Transition House during day of service
Sunday, January 20, 2013
DOVER — On Saturday, local volunteers took out their painting clothes, paint brushes and rollers, and dove into a daylong project that will benefit the Families in Transition House, which is slated to open as early as next month.
"It needs to be done," said Traggis, when asked about her reasons for participating in the project. "It feels like people are really motivated."
In the mid-afternoon, Hull told fellow volunteers, "It's incredible, the amount of work we've accomplished today."
She said the group of about 21 volunteers had finished painting about 12 rooms, a hallway and bathroom.
The house, said Bodell, "is massive."
Hull said that after Saturday's work, volunteer efforts will still be needed for painting additional rooms, the ceiling, and the trim.
Those wishing to volunteer painting the Families in Transition House can email firstname.lastname@example.com.

The ignition module or crankshaft position sensor may fail causing the engine to die and not restart. Diagnoses will be necessary to determine if the module or crank sensor is causing the no start condition.
Problems for specific Chevrolet Celebrity years:
Car problem reports
Problem with your car? See what our experts say or submit your own.
Newest reported 1990 Chevrolet Celebrity problems
Steering rack can fail
The steering rack may fail causing the steering to become hard to turn.
Oil-soaked spark plug wire rubber boots can cause misfire or rough idle
Inside Door Handles May Break
The inside door handle may break causing the door not to open from the inside.
Wear In Outer Tie Rod Ends Can Cause Steering Problems
The outer tie rod ends on the steering linkage may wear causing excessive free play in the steering and uneven tire wear. If the worn tie rod ends are replaced, the wheel alignment should be checked and adjusted as necessary.
Unperformed "Idle Learn" Procedure May Cause Stalling Issue
Rich-running engine due to oxygen sensor failure
The oxygen sensor can fail causing the engine to run very rich or use more gasoline than normal. Black smoke may be emitted from the tail pipe and this can also accelerate failure of the catalytic converter.
Rough and/or High Idle Due to Engine Vacuum Leak
The upper intake manifold gasket and/or a PCV vacuum lines/hoses can develop vacuum leaks with age. This type of leak can result in a higher that normal or rough idle.
Coolant Leak From Water Pump
A coolant leak and/or engine overheating may be caused by a failed water pump. Replacement of the leaking pump should correct this concern.
The Engine May Stall After Extended Freeway Driving
The torque converter clutch can stick "on" after extended freeway driving causing the engine to stall when coming to a stop. Our technicians tell us when this occurs, the engine usually will restart and stall when put into gear. After allowing about twenty minutes for the engine and transmission to cool down, the engine will start and the transmission will operate normally. Replacing the torque converter clutch solenoid, transmission filter, and fluid will generally correct this issue.
Engine Oil Leak From Valve Cover Gasket
This engine may leak oil from the valve cover gasket.
Front Brake Rotor Wear Can Cause Pulsations
Front brake rotors can wear causing a pulsation felt in the brake pedal. Our technicians tell us this condition is best corrected by replacement of the front rotors and brake pads.
Engine Stall Or No Start Condition
The fuel pump may fail causing engine to stall and not restart.
Transmission Fluid Leak From Cooler Line
The rubber section of an automatic transmission cooler line may develop a fluid leak . In some cases the leaking section of hose can be replaced. In others, the complete cooler line must be replaced to correct this concern.
Stalling or Low Engine Idle Speed Due to Dirty Throttle Body
Body: A dirty throttle body may cause a lower than normal engine idle resulting in a stalling condition. A stalling condition may also result if an idle learn procedure is not performed if the battery goes dead or is disconnected.

The good news is that most major players: Intel, Red Hat, AMD, etc. are working on a solution for this problem.
If I'm not mistaken, Nvidia's only contribution to this joint effort was to try to relicense other people's code. They don't want to take part, just use other people's work. That's what this article is about.
I bought a notebook yesterday. It had an option of having an Nvidia GPU (Optimus). I avoided it in a wide arc and went with Intel graphics.
- I happen to have an onboard RS780 (r600g) chip. The closed driver for this HW has been discontinued, so xvba is no option anymore.
- XvBA only partially worked with special xbmc builds. Even the devs themselves complete to AMD for not releasing what they need to fully implement everything
- non-existent ELD support (what's /proc/asound/card0/eld* on your system)
- Xv is the only decent video acceleration. Not so great for h264 content. To be discontinued in MythTV in the not-to-far future.
- OpenGL video? Eats even more CPU than Xv. Impossible to get judder free.
- VDPAU video? Eats even more CPU than Xv. Impossible to get judder free. Only partial VDPAU, eg. no deinterlacing
- partial ELD support, but nowhere near what nvidia has, leading to the fact that you can only either
use stereo PCM _or_ 6ch PCM and needing sw upmixing, cause media software is unable to properly understand the audio HW capabilities. Yes, I tried .asoundrc to fix this but it never really worked.
Now take that aging NV GS8400 I finally bought for like 20EUR: everything just works. No magic needed.
As of today, AMD is nearly irrelevant in any of the major media center/DVR camps (mythtv, vdr). Everybody there will tell you to buy nvidia. I learned the hard way why they are right.
