1993 Mercury Tracer Q&A
1993 Mercury Tracer Question: Car has no get up and go
Overdrive wouldn't shift right then started smoking from under the hood. Now car has no get up and go won't shift into gears properly. Goes no more than 30mph now. Parked it tell we can figure out whats wrong with it. - MissyAlman
Answer 1
MissyAlman, I am sorry to hear about your car troubles! Unfortunately, it is hard to determine what happened specifically with your car without being able to check the basics - spark, fuel, air coming in to the engine, exhaust is free flowing, emissions controls are working well, transmission fluid full and clean, running characteristics and so on. From the clues you shared, you indicated a transmission shifting problem. This tells me that you may have some kind of internal transmission problem that needs attention. Start by checking your transmission fluid and seeing if it is full and red. If it is low and/or dark in color with a burnt smell, you probably have major issues. You can always start with a fluid and filter service, but issues may already run deeper. The 4EAT transmission from Ford does not have very many areas where a repair can be made with symptoms like yours, so you would probably be looking at an overhaul or replacement of the unit. Your smoking under the hood -- now I start thinking of overheating issues, coolant leaks, oil leaking on exhaust, etc. My suggestion is to see a qualified technician who can be of help. Here is a directory of shops in your area: http://repairpal.com/directory?address=78611&car_brand_names=Mercury Good luck! - DaveJHM

I had some minor issues with the shuttles which were somewhat frustrating. On the way to the airport, a shuttle that was there when I was getting out of my car said that he was leaving but there was a shuttle right behind him who would pick me up. Despite the fact that I was standing behind my car with my luggage ready to go, the second shuttle drove right past me without even slowing down to stop, so I had to wait for a third shuttle. On my return trip, I had to wait about 10 minutes for a shuttle to arrive. While I was waiting for 1 Park & Go shuttle multiple shuttles for the other parking options came and went. It wasn't terrible, but I will probably opt to park elsewhere in the future since there are many options at the $9/day rate.
The drivers was ver nice
For $9 per night, you would think they could pave the lot once in awhile!!
The shuttle was ready upon my arrival and the driver kindly drove me back to my car before leaving the lot because I had left my cell phone in the charger. That was kind of him. However, he left me (a disabled person who needed a wheel chair that was already reserved) stranded with a heavy suitcase FAR away from an entrance to the terminal or any person who could help. On the trip back to my car, once I was home in Detroit, two virtually empty Park N Go shuttles went right past me at the pick up point even though I was seated in a wheelchair at the curb and waving my arms for them to stop. Nothing was obstructing their view. The third driver who finally stopped for me was relatively pleasant.
Very easy, pleasant helpful staff
We were unhappy with our experience using Park N Go. Will never do that again! Our plane was delayed for 1 1/2 hours due to storms/weather and the attendant insisted he must charge us for another day. We booked parking from 11 am Tuesday until the following week Wednesday evening at 6PM. He argued that because we didn't pick up at 11 am on Wednesday, he had to charge another day and then top it off with another day charge for being late because of weather delays. Not a pleasant experience.
We were picked up in less than a minute in the parking lot and within 2 minutes at the airport. We satisfied with our experience and will use park-n-go again.
Our plane was delayed getting in and we arrived four minutes after midnight and was charged for a full day!!!! The person serving us was the rudest person I've ever encountered in a long time. I wish I would have gotten her name!
Van driver was excellent
It would be helpful in the FAQ section you mentioned that you just need to return to the ground transportation area and shuttles will come. I wasn't sure if I needed to contact anyone to let them know I had arrived. Overall, very simple to use!
sehr guter reibungsloser Ablauf - sehr guter Service nur zu empfehlen
Very impressed!
Very pleasant experience! Friends recommended Park N Go and it was exactly what they said it would be.
Sooooo great! Thank you!
Only the price was a little high.
If the drivers want to receive any kind of courtesy tip they need to provide a sign and a tip container like the shuttles in Arizona. I feel in my opinion the drivers deserve a tip from every one even if it's 50 cents or a $1.00.
It was a very pleasant experience and we will use it again if we fly out of Detroit.
Everything worked out great.
Using the parking and shuttle arrangement made it very convenient and easy to get to and from the Detroit airport. I would highly recommend it.

For many people, news coverage of drought, low water tables, and increased pumping of aquifers are just words. The average American lacks full understanding of how the drought in the Western states affects them and the businesses they patronize. After all, when news outlets publish articles exclaiming "5 Ways to Reduce Water Usage," that's just a friendly guide, not an advisory warning, right?
U.S. federal and private interests have built infrastructure to better capture melting snow, store reserves in aquifers, improve irrigation and divert excess water into areas that traditionally would have inadequate reserves to respond to a years-long drought. Despite our best efforts, San Diego, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Salt Lake City are facing water scarcity issues unlike anything they have previously encountered.
USA Today reported recently that, "The situation in California may well be the most problematic of any state. The entire state was suffering from severe drought as of last week, and 75 percent of all land area was under extreme drought."
Adequate water is equally necessary to business as it is to individual lives. Our grocery bills are an apt demonstration of that fact. As farms spend more energy accessing irrigation water and shifting production from some crops in favor of less intensive ones, the U.S. departments of Labor and Agriculture expect food prices to grow 2-3 percent during 2014, according to The Wall Street Journal. And investing in areas with limited water supplies is as wise as investing in stocks guaranteed to tank.
Scientific American goes on to report that "Water-use efficiency improvements may slow down the growth in water demand but, particularly in irrigated agriculture, such improvements will most likely be offset by increased production. Similarly, water storage and transfer infrastructure improve availability, but allow further growth in demand as well."

Arizona Diamondbacks
D-backs' Didi Gregorius silencing critics with hot start at the plate
Rookie shortstop Didi Gregorius has gotten off to a quite start at the plate for the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2013.
Gregorius, who was acquired from the Cincinnati Reds as part of a three-team trade this offseason, came to Arizona with a reputation for being a solid defender but was not expected to contribute much offensively.
The 23-year-old, who boasts a .333 batting average, .531 slugging percentage and a .922 on-base-plus-slugging percentage, has certainly silenced his critics.
"I am here trying to put the ball in play as much as I can and get an opportunity for our team and try to get on base every time I go out there," Gregorius told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf on Friday. So for me, I don't really care what people say about me. But I know who I am and what I am capable of and everything.
"I am only 23 years old so I am still learning and growing so if they say that about me well they said it, but I can't say anything it's their opinion. I know I work hard every time I go home so I work hard and I am trying to get better every time I go out there and play the game."
D-backs' general manager Kevin Towers was one person who never doubted Gregorius' offensive ability, and even compared the young shortstop to one of the game's best after watching him play in the Arizona Fall League.
"I was just taking it like �oh wow he really likes the way I play the game if he compares me to Derek Jeter' so I know then for sure that I opened some eyes for the way I play the game," Gregorius said. "So for me it was a great opportunity and a good experience and everything and I liked it, but I am here to play the game and be me."
While Gregorius said he wasn't surprised by his impressive start, he did say that he will continue to work with D-backs' hitting coach Don Baylor on his approach at the plate.
"I came in with a hot start but I am trying to keep it up, but I got to listen to whatever they tell me and then try to put it all together and still go out there and try to play the game," Gregorius said.

"I think we're all getting pretty anxious," wing Darius Miller said Thursday. "He's a great player and he'd be a huge help and asset to the team. We're all waiting like everybody else. Really, I don't have a clue when we'll find out," Miller said Thursday. "Hopefully, we do find out today."

|Since the NCAA reconsidered it's decision on Cam Newton's eligibility, it could conceivably do the same with Enes Kanter's.
One family purposefully does wrong, shredding the NCAA's most obvious rule, and the son prospers and excels.
One family mistakenly stumbles outside the more ambiguous pages of the NCAA's rulebook, and the son sits with the weight of permanent ineligibility draped across his shoulders.
If the NCAA wants its operation to be perceived as serious, and certainly it does given the billions at stake, there can be no option other than to order Kanter's family to repay the amount in question and restoring his eligibility immediately, counting the six games missed as time served.
The Kanters would gladly write that check. Unlike some, they are not looking to be enriched by their son's time as an NCAA athlete.

text: Jun 12, 2014 16:48 Through a Glass Darkly: Valentine's risks are elementary Through a Glass Darkly: Valentine's risks are elementary by bob anderson June 12, 2014 Comments In elementary school everybody brought a shoebox to class for Valentine's Day. Most of the boxes were decorated in some fashion, and we marked all of them with our names. Each box had a slit in the top so that other students could slide in valentines. Looking back at my days at Labadieville Elementary School, I realize my class was a close-knit group. Fewer than 30 of us started first-grade together. We marched up the hall, year by year, from one grade to the next. Almost 60 years after that progression began, I think I can still name the kids with whom I made that march. We lost a few who got held back in the old room or moved to some other town. Likewise, we occasionally picked up a straggler from an older class or gained someone who moved in from another school. By the time we reached eighth-grade, more than 20 of us were still together. We existed in a tiny universe and may not have shown affection for each other often, but Valentine's Day was an exception. Each year my mother bought a bag of valentines, and I would sort through them. They were simple cards with colorful drawings and a few words on one side and room to write a note or just sign your name on the back. The sorting involved picking out images and words to go with how you felt about your classmates or to give them something you thought they would like. The boys got the cards picturing sports or something adventurous. Ones picturing a pirate lancing a sword through a heart while holding a flint-lock pistol might not be socially acceptable today. The girls generally got the cards showing puppies or kittens, but valentines for girls could be problematic. In elementary school, boys declared that they didn't like girls, but in truth there always were exceptions. The girls who embodied those exceptions got the valentines that showed the prettiest girls on them. Some years there was a special girl — a Becky Thatcher — and the question was whether to just give her the best valentine from the bag or to buy one especially for her. Buying her one was a risk. It would stand out among the others, and she would examine the words. When she opened her shoebox and went through the stack would she look up at you from a row away and smile? Would she show it to her friends, giggle and whisper words you wished you could hear? Would she just treat it like all the others as she went through her stack, making you wonder why you had spent your nickels? Valentine's Day in elementary school provided a tenuous step onto the ice over the River of the Heart. With a look, the girl whose face you watched could whisk you over the waters or plunge you into cold depths on a February day. Contact Bob Anderson by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals QB Carson Palmer calls two drives against Vikings
Carson Palmer and the Arizona Cardinals' first-team offense looked like their week-ago selves when they took the field Saturday at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minn. against the Minnesota Vikings.
The unit needed nine plays to march 93 yards down field in 3:26, ending their opening drive with a one-yard Jonathan Dwyer rushing touchdown on 3rd and Goal.
Palmer completed three of six pass attempts on the drive, targeting Larry Fitzgerald on three occasions and hooking up with him for a 20-yard pass down the right sideline.
In the following play, receiver Jaron Brown broke the drive open with a 51-yard run after a screen pass to the left, which featured some key blocking from fellow receiver John Brown.
Palmer's day was done following a four-play, 25-yard second drive, which ended in a punt. In all, he completed 4 of 8 pass attempts, accruing 91 yards thanks to a 91.1 passer rating.
Running back Andre Ellington, meanwhile, grabbed just five yards on two rushing attempts.
Both Fitzgerald and Jaron Brown retired for the day having reeled in a pair of catches on four targets. John Brown also had a 22-yard reception.

Shire gets FDA approval to make Gaucher treatment in Lexington
The Food and Drug Administration has approved production of Shire's Vpriv treatment at the company's manufacturing plant in Lexington.
The facility had already been approved for production of Vpriv, which is used to treat Gaucher disease, in Europe.
"FDA approval of Shire's manufacturing facility in Lexington provides greater assurance that Gaucher patients will receive consistent and uninterrupted access to enzyme replacement therapy for the treatment of type 1 Gaucher disease," said Rhonda Buyers, CEO of the National Gaucher Foundation.
Shire said the Lexington plant is the first commercially licensed facility in the world with a single-use bioreactor and disposable technology throughout the cell-culture processing, designed to reduce manufacturing risk.
Shire now has two approved facilities to manufacture Vpriv, the Lexington plant and a plant off Alewife Brook Parkway in Cambridge.

General Ashcroft
Justice goes to war.
Dec 17, 2001, Vol. 7, No. 14 • By TERRY EASTLAND
ON NOVEMBER 29, Attorney General John Ashcroft introduced President Bush to an audience of the nation's 94 U.S. attorneys. Bush began his remarks by commending Ashcroft for "principled" and "steady" leadership. "I guess we call you General," he said. Then, turning to the U.S. attorneys, he added, "That means you all are in the Army. And I am glad you are."
Attorneys general long have been addressed as "General." But to say that those supervised by an attorney general are "in the Army" is an odd play on the title--or would be, except that the nation is at war, and the Justice Department is playing a major role. And so it was that the president found himself commenting to his audience not only on the ordinary work of federal prosecutors, but also on "the front line" where U.S. attorneys are now engaged--and General John Ashcroft commands.
Not everyone, of course, is glad to have General Ashcroft commanding. The former Missouri senator's efforts against terrorism are drawing objections from the libertarian right and especially liberals, some of whom have fired rhetorical cruise missiles. NAACP chairman Julian Bond has said that Ashcroft "knows something about the Taliban, coming as he does from that wing of American politics." Bill Goodman of the Center for Constitutional Rights has called Ashcroft and his Justice Department the nation's "main enemies." Osama bin Laden is, presumably, a minor enemy.
As it happens, bin Laden and his al Qaeda network will have to contend with Ashcroft if their operatives are inside our borders, as will all other terrorist groups who attempt to reach into the United States and kill Americans. The president has sent Ashcroft and the Justice Department into battle to fight an unconventional war.
The president thinks about the war on terrorism in terms of "two fronts"--one abroad, fought through the Defense Department, and the other at home, waged through Justice. The latter department isn't uninvolved in the war being fought overseas with aircraft and soldiers. One of the original duties of the attorney general's office, created in 1789, was to provide legal advice to the president, and Ashcroft has offered Bush counsel on the use of military tribunals to try captured terrorists. Bush authorized such tribunals a few weeks ago, and the attorney general has not shied from defending them before the public. His main assignment, however, is to fight terrorism at home.
He has moved swiftly to do that. Before September 11, fighting terrorism wasn't even among Justice's top five priorities. Afterwards, it shot up to No. 1. The goal includes investigating and prosecuting crimes of terrorism, Justice's traditional role. But in light of bin Laden's designs on America, the department now is far more preoccupied with preventing further terrorist acts. As Ashcroft explained at a Senate hearing in late September, "The new terrorist threat to Americans on our soil is a turning point in America's history. It is a new challenge for law enforcement. Our fight . . . is not merely or primarily a criminal justice endeavor--it is defense of our nation and its citizens. We cannot wait for terrorists to strike to begin investigations and make arrests. The death tolls are too high, the consequences too great. We must prevent first, prosecute second."
THE ORDER to prevent terrorism came straight from the president. Ashcroft has told aides about a meeting in the Oval Office. Robert Mueller, confirmed just days before as director of the FBI, was also there. "They all realized that there was a threat" of more terrorism inside the United States, says one aide. And the president told Ashcroft, in so many words, "never to let this happen again."
Ashcroft has been invigorated by his new assignment. Indeed, his has been a dramatic change in fortune. Last November he was defeated in his bid for reelection to the Senate. Not close to Bush, he wasn't the president's first choice for attorney general. He was selected in part because conservatives wanted an unambiguous conservative in the job--a description Ashcroft certainly fit. Because of the Democrats' disagreement with his politics, however, he endured a bruising confirmation battle. Democrats relentlessly challenged him on gun control, abortion, civil rights, and most of all his role in defeating the judicial nomination of the first black member of the Missouri Supreme Court. He was confirmed by the narrowest vote of any Bush cabinet member, 58 to 42.

MercyMe - The Hurt and The Healer (Official Music Video)
this so touched my heart that someone could put words to my pain, words are very powerful when put into a song like this.
I'm a youth pastor in SW MO. I just buried my daughter today. She was one month old and had a struggle with CDH since birth. In her short life, I saw the Body of Christ rally together around the world to lift us up and pray for my precious Hallie. I know things in the next days, weeks, months and even years are going to be difficult; but I know that the Healer (Jesus Christ) has her in His arms today. I have the assurance that I will see her again. Tonight, I am going to do a Bible study using this song that was provided by Interlinc (YLO). If the Lord can help me to reach any others who are hurting, it will be a blessing. Thank you for the Words to this wonderful song.
This song...
Such a beautiful song! :)
What an amazing song. Thank you mercy me. Amen
how is your mother? God's love endures forever especially to His children.
The Hurt and the Healer is one of my favorite songs because I have my suffering in my soul, but the Healer is in my spirit which was God's gift to me when I got Born Again. I give this 10 stars. God is so great that there are not enough songs that can be written about Him. This song continues to touch many lives especially mine and I thank MercyMe for their God given talent.
um I just want to say that out of all my trying to heal after the tragic death of my 6 year old son and brother in law of weeks it has been a very rough road and my journey has had many forks. I turned to God more than ever after this tragedy I should had died with them along with my sister but for some reason we survived. I was raised to believe in our lord but was very angry with him wondering why did we survive my son should be here today he was an angel on earth and so loving and kind and I miss him so much. It will be 4 years oct 25 since he's been in heaven because of the hurt I have come much more closer to my lord and the beautiful music mercyme and our local radio station k-lite in coos bay oregon has helped me to feel a little better each day of my healing process. It still hurts so much to loose a child even though we know he's with our lord. still we are but human with feelings. Please continue with your beautiful healing music and lyrics it does help to shed a tear wihich is the process of all parts of healing. Thank you angie from wasilla alaska resising in coos bay oregon and in loving memory of Craig Albert Lohr Leone 01/04/2002 to 10/25/2008 Donor of lions eye bank or oregon Two recipients can see because of my dear little craigy love. I love you my little chicken pot pie. God Bless You my best friend and love but xoxo.
Such beautiful song..

I love this song. I've been dealing with postpartum, and I was struggling so much with feeling ashamed for even having it. This song took the shame out of it for me. And gave me hope :).
Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; Save me, O LORD, and I shall be saved. For You, are my Praise. Jeremiah 17:14 ♥ Thank You Jesus! ♥♪♫♥
so want to see this group live there songs have been such a inspiration though this hard time of fighting the battle of stage 4 cancer thank you Jesus for this blessed group...
Jesus don't let this cancer be in vain keep my eyes fixed on you.... I am alive.... and heal all those you and I Love and hold so close in my Heart, in Jesus name Amen.
I love this song, I told my husband one day, " hey I was listening to a song from MercyMe. I don't know the name of it but it made me cry" so then I started to sing a little piece of what I remembered. He then told me, ' I was on the freeway when that same song came out on the radio. You're not going to believe me but when I heard it it, tears started rolling down my cheek." God is great and He loves us. Even if you have lost someone in your life, let me tell you that He still loves you and He is always in control.
This song really touches my heart. "Pain so deep that I can hardly move". I've been there. In shock at things I saw during my divorce. Hurt unexplainable, unless you've been there. There are times when you are so hurt, that breathing is all you can do. You exist, and that's about it. "You take this heart and breathe it back to life"...as if the pain had been so bad your heart had emotionally stopped beating. That hurt, and the healing power of the Lord collide...we fall into His arms open wide....He will never leave us nor forsake us. He's ready to catch us when we fall. Praise the Lord for taking our hearts and breathing it back to life. We hear Him say "It's over now"....I'm alive. Even when a part of me has died. You take my heart and breathe it back to life. I fall into your arms open wide...when the hurt and the Healer collide.

AMAZING STORY. I can't even begin to tell you how much I loved it. :) Beast Boy and Raven are the cutest couple ever, thanks so much for giving me another reason to read BBRae fanfiction! 3 I've read some of your other stories too. April Showers and Our First Kiss were really good too, but I think this is my favourite. It's a bit darker than what you normally write, but I loved it. It broke my heart when Beast Boy tried to commit suicide, but I love how that experience brought him closer to Raven. Thanks so much for everything!

Cuddledown 400 Thread Count Cotton Sateen Sheets
Our consumer testers gave Cuddledown's 400 thread-count sheets high marks for softness, while we appreciated how well this set stood up to repeated laundering. (Five turns in the washing machine, and it looked nearly good as new!) Our main complaint is that the material isn't the strongest; in GHRI tests, it didn't take too much effort to tear the fabric. cuddledown.com.

Reviewed: March 2012
Price When Reviewed: $55.00 (twin) - $79 (king)
- Consumer testers thought the sheets were fairly soft
- Fits easily over a queen mattress with room to spare
- After multiple washes, there was only a little pilling and puckering

North Dakota to net insurance option in hospital merger
The Sanford Health Plan, now available to patients in South Dakota, Minnesota and Iowa, would extend to North Dakota if the two health systems join forces as expected.
"We expect that will be very successful, very well-received," said Kelby Krabbenhoft, CEO of Sanford Health, based in Sioux Falls, S.D. MeritCare is based in Fargo.
The entry of a new health insurer would create another option for consumers in a marketplace dominated by Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota, which has almost 90 percent of the market.
Adam Hamm, North Dakota insurance commissioner, said he welcomes firms that are committed to serving the market and providing good coverage.
"I want to see more competition and choice in the health insurance market," he said.
The Sanford Health Plan is a so-called health maintenance organization, a consumer offering that combines an integrated health-delivery system with insurance coverage.
"Now MeritCare will own an insurance company as part of the dowry that's coming to this region," he told reporters Friday when outlining benefits of the proposed merger.
Sanford's goal is to double the size of its health plan, to 100,000 enrollees.
Krabbenhoft concedes that its offering ranks far behind Wellmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, South Dakota's largest health insurer, which has 315,526 customers.
"We haven't unseated anyone," Krabbenhoft said.
Still, he said, Sanford's health plan has grown steadily without a big marketing push of billboards or TV advertising.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota covers more than 475,000 customers, either directly or through administrative agreements.
As measured by premium dollars, the North Dakota Blues are almost 20 times larger than their closest rival, according to figures kept by state insurance regulators.
Last year, the North Dakota Blues had premiums totaling $447 million, or 89.4 percent of the market. Medica, the next largest, had premiums worth $22.9 million, or a 4.6-percent market share.
The North Dakota Blues don't seem daunted by the possible entry of a new rival in the health insurance market.
"We deal with competition on a daily basis and we will continue to focus on offering the best value and customer service to our members," said Denise Kolpack, vice president for corporate communications of Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota.
Krabbenhoft said being in the health insurance business provides a valuable perspective to health providers, who begin to see the system from the perspective of those who pay the bills for the care.
"You learn a ton," he said. "I hope it will be perceived as a win-win-win," he added, noting the competitive ramifications.
The boards of MeritCare and Sanford last week each gave unanimous approval to the merger and have signed a letter of intent, with plans to reach final agreements in the fall.
Sanford-MeritCare would serve an area of almost 100,000 square miles in parts of five states with a population of 2 million.
