1995 Ford Escort Question: Engine Stalling

Answer #1rdude135 April 12, 2009, 12:11Journeyman
The guys that are looking at the car will have to experience the stalling issue before they can diagnose it. If this is an intermittent issue then it's important for you to give the technicians as much information as possible to help them diagnose it. If you can duplicate the problem consistently for them then that will help them to find the problem. If the car is stalling for the techs and they are not finding a problem I would suggest finding new technicians.

Finding 'freedom' through flight
Most high school students spend their summer vacations lying on the beach, maybe working a summer job, or just enjoying their time off of school. However Woodbury resident Evan Janochoski spent his 2010 summer vacation soaring to new heights in Alaska, where he learned to fly.
"I enjoy flying up in the air, it's a whole different feeling up there from being down on the ground," the Hill-Murray High School senior said. "There's kind of a freedom sense to it."

Elephant in the Skyby Heather A. Clark
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A testament to the healing power of unconditional love.
Widely acclaimed for her emotionally powerful stories that capture the real lives of women, Heather A. Clark, bestselling author of Chai Tea Sunday, tackles the subject of childhood mental illness and the impact it has on a close family.
The story begins from nine-year-old Nates point of view, etching the details of an unbalanced mind struggling to make sense of rampant thought patterns and heightened paranoia. Enter Ashley, Nate's mother, and a hardworking advertising executive concerned that shes not giving her family enough of her time — especially now that she senses something might be wrong with her son. As the story moves deftly back and forth between the two perspectives, the narrative converges to reveal one family's journey of discovery as they strive to find balance in their lives.
Based on a true story, Elephant in the Sky articulates a complicated, real-life subject with grace, wisdom and sensitivity, and beautifully explores the distance a mother will go to protect her child.
"Ashley Carter seems to have it all, a loving husband, two children, a big house, and a job she loves, but her world is turned upside down when her nine-year-old son Nate begins to act strangely. Following Clark's successful debut novel Chai Tea Sunday, her second novel is a magnificent story about mental illness and the unwavering love of a mother for her son. The book delves into the effects and impact of bipolar disorder on those affected as well their family members by splitting the narration between Nate and Ashley. The effect is to bring readers into a close-up experience of both Nate's episodes of fear and delusion and a mother's pain as she tries to help her son through something she doesn't understand. Clark's brutally honest narrative follows their journey through Nate's psychosis: pre-diagnosis, hospitalization, and post-diagnosis. Clark expertly presents Ashley as someone who fears and lacks understanding of mental illness but who, with guidance, learns to accept what she cannot change and begins to deal positively with the situation. The result is a story about love, strength and the struggles those with mental illness and their loved ones face in a society in which many stigmas about mental illness persist.

Widely acclaimed for her ability to tell emotionally powerful stories that capture the real lives of women, bestselling novelist Heather A. Clark tackles the subject of childhood mental disorders. Elephant in the Sky is told from both nine-year-old Nates point of view and that of his mother, Ashley, an overworked ad executive who struggles with a demanding workload and the worry that shes not spending enough time with her family — especially as her sons battle with mental unbalance and paranoid delusions escalates. The two narratives converge in a deeply moving tale of a family dealing with mental illness.
Elephant in the Sky is a story about unconditional love, and it articulates a complicated, real-life subject with grace, wisdom, and sensitivity. It looks at what it means to be different in our society and beautifully explores the distance a mother will go to protect her child.

I Have Finally Jumped On The 'Duck Dynasty' Boat – Season Finale Tonight!
It's taken me a few months, but I have finally watched this season's episodes of the Robertsons in A&E's 'Duck Dynasty', and I loved it.

You may not have asked for it, but here it is: A year's worth of goofy outtakes from the City of Midland's, award-winning informational program, 'Monthly Shorts'.
I'm ok with April Fools Day only once a year, because there are some pretty good pranks to do roommates, classmates or co-workers! Check out the video above for easy pranks!
A few years back, I played a pretty awesome April Fools Day Prank,I bought some jelly filled donut's I sucked out the jelly with a turkey baster and then filled them with mustard! I replaced the out edge with jelly-know had a clue! It was pretty funny when one of the sales people took a big bite of a mustard filled donut!
Farting in public is often frowned upon and yes we all probably have snuck a few toots out at parties, in the bar or even outside your parents back door -- guilty as charged! But do you "social fart" all the time or just sometimes?
Guaranteed, this one is going to make the rounds.
An armed Ukrainian hit squad has escaped from a government installation and is now somewhere near the coast of Crimea. Oh, and they are dolphins!

ClassicsOnline Home » RUSSIAN OBOE (The) > Review List
This recording offers a fascinating survey of Russian oboe music spanning over 150 years. Though now widely neglected, Johann-Heinrich Luft held an important position as an oboist in 19th century Russia and was the acknowledged founder of the Russian school of oboe-playing. From music by Rimsky-Korsakov, including a dazzling transcription of Flight of the Bumble-Bee, to the more nearly contemporary, all these compositions bring to the fore the lyrical qualities of the instrument and the virtuosity of the performer.

Henry Winkler, best known for his 1970s and '80s portrayal of the character "The Fonz," or "Fonzie," on the sitcom "Happy Days," issued a curious tweet in the hours that followed the March on Washington celebrations in Washington on Wednesday.
The rally marked the 50th anniversary of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech.
Mr. Winkler's tweet: "I HAVE a dream / I DREAM that one day this great country does not shoot its DREAMERS."
The tweet was ostensibly a jab at the George Zimmerman-Travyon Martin fiasco and a simultaneous wish for amnesty for illegal immigrants of the type included in one of the Dream Act versions granting citizenship for certain immigrants that's wound through Capitol Hill corridors for years.
Social media commentators were quick to respond.
"Good dream Henry xxx," tweeted one.
And another: "The only people shooting DREAMERS are other DREAMERS and a few Trayvons. Feel free to call a cerveza summit."
And one more: "Hey Fonz, you just re-jumped the shark. WHOA!"
That last was a reference to Mr. Winkler's waning years on "Happy Days," largely pinned to an episode in which he switched out his trademark motorcycle for a pair of water skis and staged a dramatic ocean jump of a cordoned-off shark. The episode was widely mocked. The phrase "jumping the shark" has been used since to describe the period of time in a television series that marked its ratings descent.

Cygone's Intrepid Build
View Single Post
Join Date: Jun 2012
Posts: 22
# 140
I made a similar build with a sci captain flying Recon Sci Vessel, using 2 photons and romulan torp front and 3 tetryon turrets aft for additional kick to shields. With 3 projectile doffs giving almost 50% proc chance and procing for all torps on cool down, I get torps shooting after global cool down almost all the time. I'm using 2-piece Adapted MACO (KHG-equivalent) set for torpedo damage bonus and the nice science skill bonuses from the deflector. My boffs are not efficient, and I don't cycle boff abilities. I use High Yield and Spread on tac, and also Gravity Well and Polarize Hull on sci boffs. My flow capacitors also aren't buffed up as much by consols because I also use one for Graviton Generators and one for Particle Generators to buff up my Gravity Well. I use higer rank tractor beam, though, since it lasts longer thus giving more of a total shield drain.
I do 3-4k dps in stfs which is not great but it is without shield drains which are not logged by the game. Not a killer ship or anything, especially with my high-dps team that wipes the mobs in seconds, but still able to contribute necessary effort to a quick elite stf.

'1600 Penn': Josh Gad Reveals Secrets Behind NBC's White House Comedy (Exclusive Video)
In a new behind-the-scenes featurette, the co-creator/actor and creative minds share little-known facts about the half-hour show, premiering Jan. 10.
Who are the minds that make NBC's new White House comedy 1600 Penn tick? One of them is co-creator/actor Josh Gad.
The Hollywood Reporter has an exclusive four-minute, behind-the-scenes featurette spotlighting the writers and producers behind the half-hour sitcom. As Gad brings us through the writers' offices, he can't help but bring on the funny.
"I think they look to me as a father figure although I'm much younger than pretty much all of them," Gad deadpans.
PHOTOS: '1600 Penn' Set Visit: Hollywood's Version of the White House
What does co-creator Jon Lovett, who worked for three years in the White House as one of President Obama's speechwriters, do when he sits behind his desk? Well, according to Gad, "he sits at his two computers and he says, 'Ooh, I'm funny!' " before writing to Obama (not really) and asking if "he needs funny jokes" to use.
Jason Winer, co-creator and director of 1600 Penn, called the show one of the "more realistic sitcoms" on television "because this family actually has a reason to be in the house all the time."
Executive producer Mike Royce, who worked on Everybody Loves Raymond and Men of a Certain Age, shared a little-known behind-the-scenes story. "Every time [Josh] sees me, he kisses me on the head," he said, with Gad lurking behind and granting him his wish. "That's it."
1600 Penn, from Gad, Lovett and Winer, centers on the dysfunctional Gilchrist family who live in, you guessed it, the White House. Gad, Bill Pullman, Jenna Elfman, Martha MacIsaac, Amara Miller, Andre Holland and Benjamin Stockham star.
1600 Penn premieres 9:30 p.m. Thursday on NBC.

Still not very awake but working on some rough sketches... They're a secret for the moment, but they will involve snap fasteners! These vintage lovelies came from my grandmother's stash (complete with original price labels).
memake, nichole anne, sanickels, and 10 other people added this photo to their favorites.
You knew I'd add this to my faves didn't you
6p :D :D
memake - yes indeedy! I would have wondered if you were ill if you hadn't :D
I love seeing these old cards. I have some of my Nan's which have old money labels still on them (shillings and pence). Not sure I would use them though? Or even if they would separate!
Good luck with the new ideas.
You're right, they don't separate! I'm so use to being able to use vintage supplies - silly me!
Luckily I have rather fallen in love with the packaging, so I'm going to have to display them somewhere in my house insead and just use modern ones. The snap fastener plan was this:
Lol - Obviously didn't read that one =D
What about looking at proper jewellery findings? I recently made some crochet bracelets and used some of the toggle fasteners from here ... www.spellboundbead.co.uk/category/52/Toggle
Cost a bit more, but would look stunning on your felt bracelets.
Oooh, I never thought of something like that! I opted for elastic in the end, but I may have to investigate those for the future :)
I'm actually a little relieved that you're keeping them just as they are - I LOVE vintage sewing packaging - have lots of it dotted around my sewing room. I love your things!!
Yes, the more I looked at them the more I fell in love with them! :)

Following yesterday's news that a new vulnerability had been found in the Apple iOS mobile platform, one security company has predicted that hackers will exploit it via Twitter.
The vulnerability was discovered and used by a hacker known as Comex to build a jailbreak app for the latest iOS version.
The jailbreak enables users of Apple's mobile devices to download tools that haven't been approved by Apple.
Security company F-Secure said on its blog that hackers could use microblog site Twitter to exploit the vulnerability, but that hackers were more likely to use the vulnerability to annoy users than infect them with malware.
"We can easily imagine hackers tweeting links directly to jailbreak PDF files. When somebody clicks on such a link from their Twitter app, it would open Safari – as Apple doesn't allow for other default browsers – and then Safari would attempt to view the PDF. And then... jailbreak."
With the iPhone and iPad devices in particular seeing a greater level of penetration into the enterprise, these security concerns will come as bad news to IT departments.
Once jailbroken, the iOS is considered by security analysts to be more at risk from malware.
F-Secure advises Apple users to be cautious when visiting Twitter until Apple patches the vulnerability.
"You might want to be very careful what you click on between now and the time Apple releases iOS 4.3.4."
There is a lot of attention being paid to how business leaders can use the mobile computing preferences of employees and customers to be more responsive, efficient and successful. This white paper runs through five security considerations for the mobile age.

Where oh Where Have the Fireplaces Gone?
We are buying an 1875 Classic Farmhouse (I am told) style in Western PA. Though the house has three chimneys, and is a massive 3600 square feet, there is but one small fireplace in the living room.
Home has a total of 13 rooms and there are Victorian cast iron radiators throughout, but I find it hard to believe a house built in 1875 has only this one fireplace. I want to go looking for more in the walls and restore them, but am I on a fool's errand? Could this really be all there is?
Here is a link that might be useful: Pics
It's a tough call OHL, being that age, the parlor would have the best fireplace, but it is late enough that steam heat was the latest technology, and having a fireplace would probably be seen to take away from the latest trends. It depends also on where the chimneys go through the house--one or more could have just been used to vent a monster furnace.
My house built in 1908 has two chimneys, but only one fireplace--the second chimney vented the kitchen stove and some gas heaters in the rooms above. My parlor chimney serves the single fireplace and the old furnace--and also a heater which was in the main bedroom. My house had a gas heater in every room, and for lighting as well judging by the piping coming through the floor and walls.
Look for where there may have been stove pipes entering a chimney in a room close to the where the "unused" chimney's are on the roof. My 1910 home had three chimneys but only one fireplace. I did a little sleuthing and I found openings where there were stove pipes entering the chimney in the wall. The chimneys service free standing wood stoves in each of the upstairs rooms as well as a few rooms downstairs. The stoves were all long gone and the stove pipe openings were all sealed up and plastered over.
Perhaps in the kitchen behind the paneling?
We bought a 1910 cottage and the chimney had 3 outlets. There was a stone fireplace in the living room and the other outlet was for the boiler. DH suspected we may find another behind paneling, and we did in the master bedroom.
Best of luck restoring that home, it will be gorgeous when it is done. Not many folks would be brave enough to tackle that.
Thanks all. Then I will not get my hopes up to find fireplaces but will keep my eyes peeled just the same.
Yes, Polly this is going to be a monster but the price was too good to pass up and once it is habitable it will get my family 19 hours closer to my mom, lol! I have always wanted to do a restoration, I have experience fixing up houses but nothing like this. The place just called to me and I heeded! The structure itself is very solid and level but it needs just about everything else. Luckily many of the old touches are still present like the brass operators on the transoms and shockingly, a house that's been empty most of fifty years has just a single broken pane.
Nonetheless, I expect y'all will see a lot of me on here in the coming years... Thanks in advance for all the wonderful advice!
I look forward to your pics.
My husband and I took on a huge renovation when we bought our cottage home. It is not quite as majestic as yours, but it is quaint and charming and what I always wanted in a home.
Nice to "meet" you.
Before you go busting out plaster, do careful measured drawings (as-builts, they are called) which may be more helpful in revealing large chimney masses in the walls than a sledgehammer, and less messy. The as-builts are going to have an enduring value as you upgrade the mechanicals and plan kitchen and bath reno's, too.
ps your house has great potential.
Sombreuil - I don't plan on taking out the plaster at all. I am hoping that we can trace the chimneys and maybe detect non-original walling, but my priority is keeping the plaster as a shocking lot of it is in good condition. Except the ceilings. The POs ripped out all plaster and lathe ceilings on the first floor and I swear I almost fainted but I have since recovered with the promise of pressed tin to replace them ;)
I do like the idea of as-builts, thank you! I think the blueprints are in the attic and it will be interesting to compare!
Casey, I never heard the term 'as built' before but it's wonderful advice. I did the measured drawings as a common sense approach & it's amazing how obvious it was to see the additions, fake walls, & hidden spaces on paper rather than just looking around.
By 1875 there would likely have been solid fuel (probably coal rather than wood) burning stoves rather than the, by then, old-fashioned fire places. This would be particularly true in western PA where coal was plentiful and where access to cast iron stoves would have been cheap and easy through canals or the Great Lakes.
My northern NY house built before the Civil War never had a single fireplace, only stoves for both heating and cooking. The earliest stoves were wood-burning; then there was a coal phase, but by time we bought it in the 1980s all the heating and cooking had gone back to wood burners.
With stoves you need only chimney stacks not the massive masonry that a fireplace needs, so you may not find large voids where hearths were. Keep an eye out for circular marks on walls about the size of gallon paint can lid. These are evidence of stove pipe thimbles as they passed through walls.
If you can get up on the roof, you may be able to detect places where chimneys have been removed to below the roof surface. Look in the attic for circular holes in the attic flooring.
It was quite common to have long (by modern safety standards) runs of nearly horizontal stove pipe from one room to another to get the chimney.
It was also common to remove the stoves seasonally, and only keep in the house during cold weather.

Bath Sheet
The quality of the towels appears to be good but I am returning the towels because I don't need the bath sheet. It is enormous. I think it is much larger than a beach towel. It is ideal for someone who wants or needs a gigantic towel.Read More

Bath Sheets vs Bath Towels
Most bathroom decorators are accustomed to purchasing conventionally sized bath towels. Standard-sized bath towels are usually included as part of a set. Buying a set is often easier on the pocketbook, and there's no need to worry if your bath towels will match your hand towels and wash cloths. Don't scrub the notion of incorporating bath sheets into your bathroom sets, however. Bath sheets, due to their size and volume, add considerable luxury whenever you step outside of the shower or tub.

The weight of wet towels combined with the action of pulling towels off the bar puts additional pressure on the towel bar. Improper installation of a towel bar can result in the bar separating from the wall and damaging the wall's surface. Follow these simple steps to be sure your towel bar is properly installed.
How to Keep Towels Fluffy and Soft
Have your towels become stiff and scratchy? Don't throw them away just yet. Hard water and fabric softeners can diminish softness, but after following a few of these tips, your towels will be fluffy, soft, and even more absorbent than they were before.
Bookshelf Essentials
Whether you want a place to store books or simply display collectibles, bookshelves are the perfect solution. A bookshelf is a versatile type of furniture that goes with any room or decorating style. Aside from using them for books, use the space for storage by placing baskets for magazines, games, or videos in the living room. Place bookshelves in the bathroom to store extra towels and bath items. Take this list of bookshelf essentials into account before you purchase a set of shelves.

How to Clean a Chenille Throw
Soft and warm, chenille is the perfect fabric for luxurious throws. Chenille yarn is made from short pieces of fiber twisted around a yarn core. The fiber then stands away from the yarn, which gives chenille that soft texture. If you have a chenille throw at home, you may be wondering how to clean it. Owners of chenille throws can clean them gently in a washing machine or carefully by hand. Check out the following steps to help you learn how to clean a chenille throw.
Best Bathroom Ideas for Kids
Make bathroom decorating a creative and enjoyable experience for your children. Use their favorite hobbies, colors and critters as inspiration for their bathroom decor. If you are decorating a kids' bath on a budget, use paint or bright towels to give the old bathroom a new look. Start with an attractive bathroom accessory such as a vibrant shower curtain and choose bathroom decor to match. If several children will be sharing the space, choose gender-neutral themes and colors.
How to Choose a Mattress for Your Student
A mattress? Why would your student need a mattress? You've bought toiletries, bed linens, folders, a desk lamp, bath rugs, towels; the list goes on. Your child doesn't need a new mattress, right? Dorms provide mattresses, right? Sure they do. They're thin and lumpy and have been slept on by 100 strangers. Ensure that your son or daughter stays healthy and gets the rest every student needs by sending them to college with a quality mattress.
How to Choose the Right Dog Kennel Size
One of the first things you need for a new dog is a quality dog kennel. The right dog kennel can help potty train your puppy, make traveling and vet visits with your dog easier, and give your dog a cozy place to curl up at night or to keep out of mischief while you're away. The wrong size dog kennel, however, can make things uncomfortable for your pooch and a pain for you. As a rule of thumb, kennels and crates should be at least 4 inches taller and longer than your dog and allow him to stand, sit, and turn around easily. You'll also want to make sure there is water and a blanket or towel in there for him. These guidelines can help you find the right fit for your pup when shopping for dog kennels.
Best Skirts for the Office
It is important to find a comfortable skirt to wear to the office that is appropriate yet stylish. Skirts are a staple of any wardrobe; they are also one of the most versatile pieces of clothing and can be worn with sweaters, blouses or jackets. Depending on your office dress code, conservative or casual styles may be appropriate, so choose styles and colors that fit into your existing wardrobe. Wear long skirts for cooler weather. While the most popular women's skirts are hemmed around the knee, cold winter months are a great time to wear longer skirts. Formal long skirts, especially those made of silk or velvet fabric, are probably out of place in the office. Stick to cotton, twill or even wool fabrics for a professional look. Ruffles and pleats can also give long skirts a feminine touch. A-line skirts are the best shape for most women because they create a waistline and widen at the hem, balancing out larger hips. Select flattering skirt sets. To ensure your skirt looks as professional as possible for the office, find a skirt set with an accompanying jacket. You can pair the skirt set with any type blouse, including silk, cotton or polyester. For a clean look, wear a skirt and jacket with a blouse that easily tucks in and does not create a bulge or pull around the skirt waist. You can also pair women's skirts with separate jackets if you want to mix up the wardrobe. Choose a slimming pencil skirt. One of the most common and fashionable skirts to wear is the pencil skirt. It pairs nicely with a variety of blouses, sweaters and jackets, making it a versatile part of the wardrobe. The pencil skirt is flattering to all body types, from very thin to curvaceous women. The skirt's silhouette is straight at the waist and narrows at the knees, allowing it to hug all of the curves of the body. Look for a pencil skirt that has a slit or pleat in the back near the hem to allow for increased movement while walking. Find an appropriate casual skirt. Casual skirts can be professional and dressy enough to wear to work. For the office, look for skirts made of cotton, khaki material, linen or even wool to provide a comfortable option. Keep casual skirts mid-length, allowing them to fall either slightly above or below the knee cap. View All Skirts Back to Guides Directory View All Skirts
Hardside Luggage vs Softside Luggage
There are some very obvious differences between hardside luggage and softside luggage. But there are also a lot of more subtle differences, and knowing all the differences between the two types of luggage can help you find a luggage set that is right for you and makes your travels easier. Materials: Hardside luggage is usually made of aluminum or polycarbonates. They are chosen because they have a good strength-to-weight ratio. Softside luggage is made of a variety of materials, including vinyl, cotton, polyester, leather and other durable materials. These materials are chosen because they are lightweight, flexible and durable. Features: The features offered on softside and hardside luggage are nearly identical. They both often offer wheels and extendable handles for convenience when carrying the luggage. Inside, they can have an array of pockets for holding toiletries or preventing clothes from getting wrinkled. What can be different is that softside luggage typically has several pockets that are accessible without opening the suitcase. Also, softside luggage almost always uses zippers to hold it close, but hardside luggage will have some type of latch to secure it. Price: Many factors determine the cost of luggage; one of which is the materials it is made of, but features, size, brand and other factors play a part as well. Not all hard materials are the same and not all soft materials are the same, but on average, the initial cost of hardside luggage is going to be higher than the initial cost of comparable softside luggage. One thing to consider though is value. If you are a frequent flyer, the initial cost of hardside luggage might be offset by its longevity. Use: If you are someone who keeps their luggage close to them and will only take a carry-on with you, the lightweight, flexibility of softside luggage might be better for you. The rigid shape of a hardside case doesn't always conform to the shape of an overhead bin; however, if you like to check your bags, hardside luggage is less likely to be damaged when thrown around in the holding area and will keep its contents from getting crushed when another bag gets thrown on top of it. Bottom line: When it comes down to it, both softside luggage and hardside luggage do the same basic thing. But the choice is about you and what you want. Do you want something that is incredibly durable and will protect everything inside of it? Or would you rather have luggage that is more flexible and lightweight?

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tropicalorchids Service excellence at its best! As part of our Mercedes Benz European Delivery Program, we selected a hotel near downtown Stuttgart. Our first choice hotel was unavailable and we're so glad it was. We would have never been able to experience the first class customer service provided by LeMeridien. From the moment we exited our taxi, we were thoroughly impressed. The kind African gentleman at the door, the front desk staff and the Front Office Manager, Stefan H., were all profeesionals and exemplified customer service at its best. If you have an opportunity to meet Stefan, you will indeed say that he should hold the title of 'Best Hotel Manager' throughout the World. He displays a genuine concern for your personal stay and makes every effort to customize your visit within his control. The rooms were well fitted and quite comfortable. The beds were not the most comfortable we've slept. There was an occasional emergency vehicle siren but the walls were fairly soundproof beyond that. Now to the disappointing part of the stay... We picked up our new MB and had to leave to start our Black Alps Rally! We would have certainly extended our stay and enjoyed more of the downtown area, which was steps from this well-run establishment. Again, Stephan and staff could start their own Hotel Service Training Academy and make millions!! October 19, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by carloscplo check in debacle I checked in fairly late on arrival as I had meetings as soon I got into Stuttgart. I requested a smoking room and found out that it wasnt available. It wasnt my first time at this hotel and also I have stayed at enough hotels throughout the year that a smoking room can never be guaranteed. Being a Platinum member, I would expect a better recognition in a sense that measures will be taken to meet my needs. I was greeted with a we dont have any smoking rooms and of course I was disappointed, and slightly speechless and after 5 seconds the check in receptionist simply followed up with a 'do you understand me?'. That to me is putting oil on fire. I of course accepted the room as it was late but then it left me fairly annoyed. I am a Platinum member of SPG and that means loyalty. I would expect the same. At least to acknowledge the fact that there might be a chance that a smoking room will become available the next day and you can change me into one. No, there is no smoking room available and thats it. There are many hotels in the area and this incident did make me think why not try another one next time. I go to Stuttgart fairly often and have not stayed anywhere else because of loyalty and the level of service I expect from SPG hotels. I am not saying that I am upset because I didnt get my smoking room (of course I was slightly disappointed) but the point is the treatment, or lack of that I was given. Anyway, this is what I had to say and my advice is to treat your customers, especially your loyal customers better, or at least make them feel they are valued by the hotel. August 13, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by praise232him Debit of the Card Card This is the issue, when I checked in 2 Dec, my credit card did work, the manager allowed me to stay. I called my bank and explained to them what happen; the card was placed on restricted because somebody tried to charge against the card, I got that cleared up. Once I was settled after a few days I went back to present my credit card, it was accepted. A balanced was placed on hold for the $3400 on the credit card, I understand the procedure…I had left the Sheraton in Tel Aviv Israel, a few days earlier the same practice there as well. However, on two different occasions, authorizations for smaller amounts were levied against the card that caused it to be restricted, twice in a 6-day period. Each time, I was embarrassed because I use my credit card for routine business. My concern is this if the practice of your hotel is to reauthorize the room for the full balance required to pay at the end, and then I believe the front desk representative should inform the customer of the hotel practices. I have safeguards on my credit card; I call and let them where I am traveling, the hotel name and the amount for the expected hold for pending charges. Anything out of the original causes the credit card to go inactive, creating problems for you and me. Here is the rub, the hotel is trying to reauthorized charges against my credit card, I checked Friday, 13 Dec, and I paid in cash! I am patient, and I plan to stay at your hotel in January and June 2014. In the future, please consider the customer, and let them know up what the procedures are for staying longer than a few days. Sincerely Yours, Mr. Tony Williams December 14, 2013

These cleansing wipes are steeped in a fairly gentle formula that typically is seen in liquid eye-makeup removers. Although these wipes can be considered inexpensive, formula-wise you'd get more mileage from buying a bottle of makeup remover (Almay, L'Oreal, and Neutrogena have good ones).
Assuming you're keen on cleansing cloths, these remove most types of makeup without much effort, but they aren't ideal for taking off waterproof formulas.
The gentleness of this formula comes in part from Leontopodium alpinum leaf (edelweiss), a plant extract with potent anti-inflammatory properties (Sources: Mediators of Inflammation, October 2012 ePublication; Journal of Applied Toxicology, January 2009, pages 7–14; and Journal of Ethnopharmacology, May 2006, pages 421–426).
These cloths would be rated higher if they did not contain fragrance because fragrance isn't refreshing for the skin; rather, it can be irritating, and the edelweiss extract shouldn't have to work to keep the product from irritating your skin.
Elements Refreshing Cleansing Wipes are suitable for all skin types except sensitive.
Formulated with an extract of nature's pure and delicate Edelweiss flower, this gentle cleanser leaves your skin feeling fresh and fabulous.

Avon At-A-Glance
Strengths: Broad-spectrum sun protection from most of the SPF products; a selection of good cleansers, moisturizers, and serums; a phenomenal concealer and a handful of other excellent makeup products at bargain prices; the company provides complete ingredient lists on its Web site and offers some of the most helpful Customer Service associates in the industry.
Weaknesses: The Clearskin products are mostly irritating and poor choices for anyone battling blemishes; the Anew Clinical lineup isn't as impressive as its made out to be; an overreliance on jar packaging diminishes the antioxidants found in many Avon moisturizers; endless, unnecessarily repetitive moisturizers with exaggerated, outlandish claims; some of the foundations look unnatural.
The last few years have been an interesting time for the world's largest direct seller. Avon is sold in 120 countries and has an enormous range of products that goes beyond skin care and makeup, all sold by five million Avon representatives racking up annual sales of over $8 billion (Source: www.avoncompany.com). Yet due to several quarters of lackluster or poor financial performance, the company announced a multiyear restructuring plan in 2006. The anticipated cost of these changes is upwards of $500 million, which includes downsizing underperforming areas and focusing on remarketing their star products. In recent years, those key products have had "cosmeceutical" appeal, with claims that have gone beyond reality (but overexaggerated claims sell big in the cosmetics industry).
The Anew Clinical line ushered in several products claiming to work like (or, in some instances, better than) cosmetic corrective procedures. Whether you are considering laser treatments, Botox, Thermage, collagen injections, or even liposuction, the ads for Anew Clinical were designed to make you rethink that decision.
It is definitely impressive that Avon invested $100 million on a state-of-the-art research and product development facility in New York, but despite some innovative products that compete with the best of the best (typically for much less money), no cosmetics company has (or will) produce skin-care products that rival or beat the results obtainable from medical procedures. It's admittedly easier to slather on a cream or stroke a pad over your face than to make an office call and shoulder the expense for a cosmetic corrective procedure, but in this case convenience and savings don't equal—or even come close to—comparable results. And lest we forget, despite the onslaught of so-called cosmeceutical products claiming to mimic the results such procedures provide, the number of these procedures being performed increases each year. If any of these works-like-(insert cosmetic corrective procedure here) products did work, the number of procedures would be declining, not rising.
The National Advertising Division (NAD) took issue with several claims Avon made in ads for their Anew Clinical products (Source: www.nadreview.org/default.asp?SessionID=1149178&DocType=1&CaseType=1). In some cases, Avon reworded their claims in ad reprints, while in others they "respectfully disagreed" with the NAD conclusions but agreed to take their comments into consideration for future ads. We'll see how this turns out, but, based on their current ads, the message remains that Anew Clinical products are at the forefront of making cosmetic corrective procedure results as easy as calling your Avon representative and reciting your credit card number.
As a major international cosmetics company, Avon has several initiatives in place that prove its commitment to women and the environment. Whether donating to women's health concerns (most notably breast cancer), surpassing environmental regulations, or financially supporting alternative methods to animal testing, Avon's principles are responsible and admirable. If you pay attention to the best of what they have to offer, you will not only be supporting Avon's mission to improve the lives of women but also gaining some wonderful products, making it a win-win situation.
The bad news is that unless you know what you want and order from Avon's Web site, dealing with an Avon representative tends to be a frustrating experience. Try as they might, most of them are mere order-takers. They cannot keep up with the product assortment, sales, and changes that occur between Avon's "campaigns." One of the representatives we dealt with was quite frank about how much she didn't know, and mentioned that they are not kept as up-to-date as they should be, not to mention the haphazard assortment of testers or samples available. On the flipside, Avon is a wonderful mail-order company should you need to return or exchange products. Unlike companies with a similar business model (Arbonne comes to mind), Avon makes the process smooth and hassle-free, with a "if you're not happy, we're not" motto that epitomizes outstanding customer service.

Avon Makeup
If you've been noticing more magazine and television ads for Avon recently, it's no accident. According to an article in the November 21, 2005, issue of The Rose Sheet, Avon's ad spending through 2008 will reach "historical heights" due in part to the brand's flat performance the past couple of years. Avon's CEO Andrea Jung admitted that the company's makeup business has struggled due to increased competition, a point we wholeheartedly agree with. Avon may be viewed as a skin-care innovator, but when it comes to makeup they're more follow-the-leaders than trail blazers. Admittedly, their foundations, powders, blush, and lipsticks have smoother, more state-of-the-art textures than ever, but with few exceptions none of them are setting a precedent that other, more innovative companies are likely to follow.
You will find some outstanding Avon makeup products to consider, but perhaps due to the sheer size of the collection there are far too many mediocre products, especially among the eyeshadows, pencils, and mascaras. Given that Avon isn't as easy to obtain as comparable products at your local drug or department store, many of the makeup items end up being a tough sell. After all, who wants to go out of their way for average products? Turning to what Avon does really well, you'll find their loose and pressed powders have amazingly silky textures and natural finishes. Their blushes are wonderful, and a few of the lipsticks and foundations are definitely worth talking about with enthusiasm. Another positive point is that Avon regularly discounts their makeup, often upwards of 50% during any given campaign (Avon's campaigns run for two weeks and the specials change each time). If you shop at the right time, the best of Avon color can be yours for less than you'd pay for most low-cost drugstore makeup.

A beautiful backdrop to celebrate a 3rd & 30 something birthday. Thank you thank you!
This house was perfect for our group of three adult couples and could easily have accommodated two more. I appreciated the previous reviews that mentioned the stairs and brought two smaller ice chests rather than one large one ... ditto with suitcases. We are all in our 60's and the stairs really were fine. Views from all rooms were wonderful! We hiked three different trails in the park, all within a 30 min. drive. Buses were also nearby & frequent. I especially appreciated the owner's flexibility with my changing plans and addition of reservation dates. We will return.
We could not have asked for better place to stay than The Drake for our week at Point Reyes. The house is beautiful, the views stunning, and Kim could not have been more accommodating. It was the perfect base for our vacation! Thank you Kim - we loved our week at The Drake.
my family stayed there for a wedding in the area. the house is beautiful, and in a great location. easy to find. there are many amenities. the two car garage is a great help when 8-10 people are staying. the deli and grocery down below are very convenient.
the views are spectacular.
however, we had a few issues, and were not able to get a response from the owner after multiple calls.
namely, we couldn't figure out how to get the heat going. there are thermostats in every room, but it didn't seem that setting the temp made any difference. there were no apparent vents in the house.
the clothes dryer start button was broken. so we couldn't dry laundry. the front doorknob kept falling off.
note to future guests, the home is set on a hill, which provides great vistas, but for those who may have a difficult time with climbing stairs, it is quite a steep walk from the parking area to the top. pack lightly, or in multiple lighter luggage items in order to transport luggage up into the house.
This house was beautiful and great for a large group. The kitchen was very modern and all the bedrooms were very nice. The bathroom in the master room was gorgeous. Great view from all the decks. There were a lot of stairs to get up to the house which made it a little difficult with a baby and carrying groceries but it wasn't bad. Only drawback was no hot tub but would highly recommend this house and would rent again.
The Drake is true to the pictures - a beautiful, clean, well laid-out home in a great location. Only about an hour drive from San Francisco, it was a great escape for a long weekend.
Within 10-15 minutes we were hiking, eating oysters at the Tomales Bay Oyster Farms or getting food from the farmer's market. Amazing!
Only suggestions for the place: maybe some drapes for the bedroom windows to allow people to sleep in a little ;) some more kitchen supplies (deeper bowls, salt/pepper, etc.) to go along with the fabulous kitchen, and some toiletries for the bathroom (shampoo/conditioner). Minor things though for such a wonderful place.
It looks like the owners are trying to sell which is too bad. I hope the new owners will continue to rent out The Drake. I would definitely recommend staying here and would stay there again.
The Drake was fabulous. The beds were very comfortable, there were plenty of linens available, the kitchen was well stocked, and there was plenty of space for all of us -- 6 adults and 4 kids! We really enjoyed our stay.

Is there a way to send text messages for free or cheap with Perl? I see a lot of things on CPAN, but they all cost quite a bit. Is there anyway to send an email as a text message?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Stack Overflow is a question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Some providers have email addresses that are formatted like so: firstname.lastname@example.com.
I did a Google search for 'text message gateway', and http://cardboardfish.com looks cheap. They provide explicit Perl support.
Most if not all mobile phone providers do have email to SMS gateways set up. The problem, of course, is that you must know which provider the person you're texting is using, and have a list of the providers' email addresses built in to your application; it's much more convenient (though non-free) to use a commercial gateway that can send to any mobile phone number.

High definition live stream from the Manton Bay nest
We're currently waiting for the first Osprey to return to the Manton Bay nest. Last year, the Manton Bay female, Maya, arrived on 17th March. Her mate of the previous four years failed to return and instead Maya spent summer 2014 with a young male Osprey, 33(11). Hopes are high that they will breed together for the first time this year.
The nest cameras have been kindly funded by the Martin Lawrence Memorial Trust. We have also received valuable support from Western Power and BED Electrical Distributors.
