1995 Honda Civic • 170,000 miles
Car is making a backfire/ sputtering. Just started. Only does it when car is accelerating and at high speeds. So only when the gas pedal is pushed down. Checked spark plug wires and plugs all are in good working order. Was wondering if there was a specific thing that causes this on my car. Rather than going through and buying new plugs and wires and injectors and replacing things that might not need replaced.

AMERICA/HAITI - Microcredit for Haitian women in difficulty, but creative and tenacious
Port au Prince (Agenzia Fides) – Considered the main victims of exclusion as well as the campesinos and children, the women of Haiti have creativity and thanks to their work they support more than 43% of single-parent families where they are the breadwinner. According to information sent to Fides Agency by the General Curia of the Jesuits, the earthquake that devastated the island on January 12, 2010 particularly affected women. Hundreds of thousands of them, street vendors, domestic workers and laborers, suddenly found themselves without means of subsistence. Day after day, they see themselves forced to take refuge with their children in camps and face a major challenge: invent a way to support their own family.
Sensitive to the plight of these women, in October 2011, the Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS) launched a project aimed at "improving the life conditions and the dignity of 2040 displaced women of Port au Prince, through strategies of self -economic livelihood and socio-cultural promotion. "A year after the implementation of the project in four camps of Port au Prince, 108 female-headed households have been trained in the management of small commerce and trade, receiving each a small amount borrowed from JRS. The project is just a small example of the path of hope that the Haitian displaced women are following after the earthquake with their creativity and tenacity, silent but effective.

The Environmental Protection Agency is under attack from all sides yet again, this time for conducting dangerous and potentially even deadly experiments on unwitting human test subjects in what analysts say was a transparent bid to advance the Obama administration's radical agenda by executive decree. The explosive findings, unveiled in a recently released internal EPA report, show that the increasingly out-of-control agency exposed vulnerable people to wildly high levels of possibly fatal pollutants without even warning them of the risks. The purpose: Justifying more regulations.
The Obama administration is under fire from critics, state governments, and lawmakers for yet another federal "overreach" and abuse of power after it unveiled plans for a massive land grab across five states under the guise of protecting the "lesser prairie chicken." Analysts and opponents of the scheme say the controversial decision to declare the bird "threatened" could unleash major damage against property rights, oil exploration, energy, farming, ranching, jobs, development, industry, states' rights, the U.S. Constitution, and more. Affected state officials and lawmakers, though, are already considering their options to fight back.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) — the Geneva-based international body set up by the UN to disseminate "climate change" information — made public a report in Yokohama, Japan, on March 31 asserting that the impacts of global warming are likely to be "severe, pervasive, and irreversible." The official title of the report, made by the IPCC's Working Group II, is "Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability."
A March 19 White House news release announced that the Obama administration is launching the Climate Data Initiative, a key part of which is a government website to make access to the administration's selective data on climate change more readily available.
New EPA rules limiting airborne particulate emissions could virtually end the burning of wood for heat or cooking in the United States.

The bond between Doc Rivers and Paul Pierce took a while to seal. They clashed on offensive philosophies when Rivers came to the Celtics as coach in 2004, their personalities and pride not allowing either to back down. Eventually, the two formed a coach-player relationship that was the heart of the franchise's return to glory.
The bond between Doc Rivers and Paul Pierce took a while to seal.
They clashed on offensive philosophies when Rivers came to the Celtics as coach in 2004, their personalities and pride not allowing either to back down. Eventually, the two formed a coach-player relationship that was the heart of the franchise's return to glory.
That bond comes from an understanding of why they are here.
Basketball opportunities awaited them anywhere. Money was never going to be an issue. But what made Rivers and Pierce the foundation of a renaissance was the sense of purpose that helped carry them to a world championship in 2008, and they hope will again as they eye the start of the NBA Finals Thursday night in Los Angeles.
"You have to not shy away from it," Pierce said of the stage. "I enjoy it. It's something I constantly envision. It's sort of like deja vu. That's why I'm not shaken by these moments."
Pierce soaked it up as much as any player two years ago when he rose from the wheelchair to lead his team to a Game 1 victory, and ultimately a 39-point rout in the Game 6 knockout. Lakers coach Phil Jackson mocked that "angels must have visited him" in the back hallways of TD Garden after he was whisked from the court with an ominous knee injury. But while the severity of the sprain may have been overdone, there was no overestimating the drive behind Pierce's push to become part of history.
"I envision myself raising up the trophy," he said. "That's all I can envision. I can't tell you how the game plays out. There's pretty much no script to that. At the end of the day, my dreams are holding up that trophy."
Rivers has similar dreams. He attacked yesterday's 90-minute practice as a strategy session in advance of an afternoon flight to the West Coast. But as he stepped in front of a horde of reporters, he clearly understood the challenge was greater than that.
Asked about Kobe Bryant's declaration that he wanted the Celtics' best shot after what happened two years ago, Rivers looked up at the 17 championship banners that surround the practice court, then glanced at the blank one hanging in the corner that is meant for an 18th.
"He's going to get it," Rivers said. "There's no doubt about it. I can say we probably feel the exact same way (about wanting the Lakers' best). Obviously, both teams want to win a title, but I think both teams are happy they're playing the team they're playing.
"I think it's exactly the way we envisioned it during training camp, and it's probably the same way they envisioned it."
Page 2 of 2 - It was not what Rivers and Pierce envisioned when they came together six years ago. And it may not have been what either envisioned during the bulk of this season as Pierce battled injuries and Rivers had to manage the roster more than coach it.
But as unlikely as this stage may have been as the Celtics meandered through a 27-27 run that lasted nearly four months, the captain said the coach never wavered, and that gave him the confidence to keep pushing toward this goal.
"Doc is a cool customer," Pierce said. "He didn't panic. He didn't get louder. You can tell by a coach's body language if things aren't really going well and you didn't really see that with Doc. He always stayed positive and encouraged us even when things weren't going well. That's why I think he's one of the top three, two, one (coaches in the game).
"I would put him right up there. This is the only coach I ever want to play for again. He's definitely taken my career to the next level."
Both know that even if this isn't their final hurrah together, the end is on the horizon. Rivers has spoken of stepping away this summer to spend more time in Florida with his family, while Pierce has an opt-out clause in his contract and will be a free agent next year.
Asked if he were worried Rivers might walk off into the sunset, Pierce let the old prideful streak blaze through for a moment.
"Is he concerned I might leave?" he laughed. "That stuff happens after the season. Right now, we're concerned about winning a championship."
A second in three years, they both know, would add to their legacies in a franchise steeped in the game's nobility. It is why they battled through the tough times when they first met, and why they refused to rest on their laurels after they won their first title together.
They are well aware that going up against a coach with 10 championships (Jackson) and a player with four (Bryant) presents its own historic gauntlet.
Yet Pierce and Rivers wouldn't have it any other way.

Chemistry – Properties of Acids and Bases
A Brief Overview of the Unique Properties of Acids and Bases.
Acid – A substance that produces hydrogen/hydronium ions in aqueous solution.
Base - A substance that produces hydroxide ions in aqueous solution.
Alkali - A base that is soluble in water.
When an acid and a base are reacted together they begin to neutralize. The produced hydrogen/hydronium and hydroxide ions react to form water.
Disassociation - When a compound splits into parts. Specifically when an ionic compound splits into ions.
Strong Acid/Base - Substances that completely disassociate in aqueous solution.
Weak Acid/Base - Substances that do not completely disassociate in aqueous solution.
Although there are some general trends (bases with alkali metals are strong and acids with halogens are strong) the best way to differentiate strong and weak substances is through memorization.
1 mole of a strong acid would have a higher concentration of hydrogen ions when in solution because it completely disassociates into ions whereas 1 mole of any weak acid would have a smaller concentration of ions. The same applies to bases.
One way of determining the strength of an acid or base is by testing conductivity. Because more ions are present in strong acids and bases, a much stronger electrical current can be generated through these substances than through weak acids or bases.
Another way of determining stength of an acid or base is to measure the pH using a pH meter. The pH of a strong acid will be lower than the pH of a weak acid. The pH of a strong base will have a higher pH than that of a weak base.
For an overview of the theories of acids and bases:

Kimberly J.
I am a 24-year-old Masters student who is pursuing her dreams in becoming an Elementary Teacher at Fairleigh Dickinson University. In December of 2011, I graduated from Ramapo College of New Jersey with my Bachelors in Psychology.
As of right now, I work as a full time Special Education Instruction Aide for an Autistic child, so I am currently unavailable during the week, however, I AM available on weekends. I am also in search of a full-time summer position. Since I do work in the school district and I would like to take a week off before my next potential job, I would not be available to start until July 8th.
EXPERIENCE: I have a ton of experience with children starting with working at two well-known day cares in the state of New Jersey for a little over two years while in high school. Since graduating from high school and college I have had numerous babysitting jobs in the Tri-state area, as well as receive my substitute licenses to work at my local school district to get more experience in my field. Since then, I recently just got hired as a Special Education Instructional Aide.
I believe the key to being a great babysitter for your child or children is to make them feel absolutely comfortable and get to know them so as your babysitter we can create a fantastic lifelong bond, and bring fun and creative activities of their interest! I also want the parents to come home to a mess free home. I will cook, clean, and tutor your children.
If you want to learn more about me and my experience to see if I'm right for your family please contact me.
I look forward to hearing from you!

So say hello to the first advanced water shoe designed by and for the new guard of outdoor athletes, the Gnarkosi.

Additional Information
Important InformationThis loan is structured on Kiva as a bullet loan, which means a single payment is required at the end of the loan term. By Colombian law, Kiva's partner Interactuar is required to offer borrowers loans with a variable interest rate that fluctuates with the market rate. Because fixed monthly payments are applied first to interest and then to principal, Interactuar is unable to predict upfront what portion of each repayment would go towards the loan principal. This creates a challenge with Kiva's system, which doesn't allow for unpredictable principal payments, and can result in some Interactuar clients appearing falsely delinquent. To remedy this, the loan has an end-of-term repayment plan on Kiva, but the borrower will continue scheduled monthly repayments to Interactuar, who will then pass along the principal amount to Kiva lenders. This means that you may see repayments made on this loan throughout the repayment term, as opposed to receiving repayment in full at the end of the loan term.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Crime, courts and legal issues in Milwaukee and throughout Wisconsin
Federal day care fraud case bumped to January
The trial of four former Milwaukee child care providers facing federal charges that they ripped off the Wisconsin Shares program has been moved from this month to January after two defendants asked to change attorneys.
In an unrelated move, the most well-known of the defendants lost her bid to get part of her case separated from the others.
The four were indicted in January after a 16-month federal investigation, charged with stealing thousands of dollars from the taxpayer-subsidized child care program, according to court documents.
Latasha Jackson is accused of conspiring with husband-and-wife Duane and Shontina Gladney, as well as Telisa Hopgood, Shontina Gladney's sister.
The Gladneys ran a child care center called Executive Kids on N. King Drive and are accused of bilking the child care subsidy program out of about $175,000 from 2007 to 2010, according to documents.
Last month, the Gladneys asked for new attorneys. A short time later, the trial, expected to take two weeks, was rescheduled and now is set to begin Jan. 23 before Chief U.S. District Judge Charles Clevert.
Jackson, who built a 7,600-square-foot mansion and bought a Jaguar convertible while collecting about $3 million in taxpayer subsidies from her own child care center, also is charged in the indictment with scamming about $24,000 from the Wisconsin Shares program and $5,000 from the state's food subsidy program.
Jackson, who also is listed in the indictment by her married name, Latasha Wilder, may face additional fraud charges related to her center, according to sources familiar with the investigation.
Jackson's attorney, Rodney Cubbie, filed a motion asking to separate two counts against Jackson from the case -- those alleging Jackson defrauded the child care program and the separate FoodShare program for benefits for her own children.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Nancy Joseph denied that motion and Clevert upheld Joseph's ruling.
The federal indictment against child care providers came after the Journal Sentinel uncovered widespread fraud and shoddy oversight in the state's taxpayer-financed program more than two years ago. More than a dozen state charges have been filed, and several providers have been sent to prison.
The "Cashing in on Kids" investigation found millions in taxpayer dollars squandered by parents and providers scamming the $350 million program. It also discovered hundreds of criminals working in the business, with some of Milwaukee's biggest crime bosses having ties to centers.

I find myself, every day — just trying to make it a little better than the day before. For instance, S has been taking a sippy cup with him in the car to drop Conner off every day. It's a huge ordeal for him to give it up. So, today I just decided to get rid of it before we got to the car — baby steps that make each day a little easier.
Mind you, there are plenty of days I take giant stpes back, but it's the intent, am I right here?
So — pick something, to do a little bit better on today.
I did pilates today, and I have been slacking on that. Frankly, the day's just going fabulously.

my everyday watch
people at work can't believe that I wear this watch to work , they ask why do you wear such an expensive watch to work ? when I tell them that I paid less the ** for it they are shocked.Read More
Excellent watch!
It's a handsome watch! It keeps perfect time and I love the functions and appearance of it. It's no bigger (in fact it's slightly smaller) than the last watch I wore, not too big at all. It worked perfectly straight from the box (excellent packaging by the way). It is everything you would expect of a watch with a Swiss quartz movement. I love the way the subdials work - in "ticks" rather than slow continuous movement. The strap is supple straight away; it needs no breaking in period. Good instruction manual. I love everything about it. I spent a long time choosing it, looking at literally hundreds of watches and their descriptions/specifications and I 'm so glad I opted for this one!Read More
Beautiful, but rather large
Make no mistake... This is a beautiful watch! Be aware, however, that it presents bigger in person than it does in the pictures. In addition to the wide diameter of the face itself, the hinged band gives it even more visual presence, and the thickness and weight of the case add even more. This watch is a lot of things, but subtle is not one of them. I love wearing this watch, and often just look at it because it's so pretty, but i also have to be careful to wear a shirt with wider cuffs that can fit over it!Read More
Poor quality
I liked the design and bought this watch in July-12 for $$$ thinking that its a very good deal. Its the replica of zeppelin watch which costs around 300$. But after using for 3 months, tachymeter and date stopped working. Even the watch stopped to run if I didnt wear for 1 or 2 days. I contacted manufacturer and I was told to send the watch to them for repair since its still under warranty. I was asked to send 20$ checque as shipping charges. I had to also spend 10$ to ship it to service center. So I spent 30$ and waiting for my watch to come back from repair and it could take anywhere from 6-9 weeks!! When I asked why should Is end 20$ for shipping the dumb answer I got was its company policy. Probably I could very well got my watch repaired for 30$ or 40$ in the local store. I did not expect this kind of poor warranty service and quality from Sthurling watches. So whoever buying this watch should not get surprised if it stops working within an year or so. I dont think I will ever buy Sthurling watches again. I have Casio, Fossil, Seiko watches which are running without any problem since I bought like 3 or 4 yrs back. So I would stick to those brands! Sthurling lost a customer.Read More
This watch is very elegant and sporty at the same.
I was very pleased when I got this watch. It is a little heavier than other watches I've worn, but not too much. I've had many compliments on it's looks. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.Read More
Good looking Watch for a very reasonable price
This is a real good looking Watch for a very good price. Frienda have asked me if I spend Thousand on it. I smile and said a little less than that. It looks very classy and formal. I would recommend this watch to other buyers.Read More
Exceptional Buy
This watch has a very distinctive look, expensive and classy. It has a unique combination of design features.Read More
Stunning quality at any price
This is a steal! I have had more compliments on this watch than other watches I have that cost much more. The leather of the band is silky smooth and easy to use, not hard and inflexible like many others. The case and bezel quality are flawless. This is a no-brainer. If you are looking for an impressive gift, or simply to add an option to your daily watch collection, this is sure to be a winner. You will not be disappointed. I am certainly looking into other Stuhrling watches.Read More

In almost every game I play, I try to apply some section of the Immersion Rules, a set of guidelines I made a few years ago that dictate how I interact with the world and other players. It's not a rigid set, though, and I am always bending it to a particular game or style. Lately I've been determined to assign my characters, in all my games, some sort of job to make money with. It could be an adventurer, a collector, or in the case of Mabinogi, a trader. This week I wanted to show you how I do it, so that you might find some inspiration to assign your own character a task or two!
First of all, you must be realistic about what you are willing to do in the game. If you love to raid, make raiding part of your job. Perhaps you are an archaeologist, or a collector of some sort? Or, if you are a roleplayer and hang out in towns more than anything, you could act as a newsman or a teller of tales! The possibilities are endless, really, but you must be honest about your playstyle in order for it to work.
For my part, I love traveling and exploring more than anything. Combat is a side event, something that my character would rather not do. There are quite a few games that allow you to play without really ever needing to kill anything. Games like Ryzom, Free Realms, EverQuest II, WURM Online and others will give you plenty of choices as to how to make your living. And remember: if your character cannot make money since the chosen job doesn't pay well, there is always bartering
In Mabinogi I had to decide what item I wanted to sell, or what I wanted to specialize in. I noticed that making clothes is very popular, and that clothing items start with basic materials. If you wanted silk thread, you had to have cobwebs. Cobwebs fall off of spiders automatically, but most spider populations either do not produce cobwebs fast enough or are killed off while you are gathering. So, I went off into the wilds to find a secluded population.
One of my favorite things to do with my games is to print off a copy of the in-game map. You might be able to find a large version of the map in question, or you can simply take a screenshot of the map, print it out in sections, and tape it together. (This is what I did with Mabinogi.) Then, as you go around the world discovering things, you can physically write it on your map. It's a nice little touch that makes you feel more attached to what your character is doing and seeing.
Once I discovered my spiders, I marked the route on the map. Soon enough, I had memorized the location and how to get there, but it's fun to have the map to show to people or to mark as you continue to explore new areas. I had to find a location that was within an hour's travel, since my mount in-game would disappear after that amount of time. Sure enough, I found my perfect spot about 15 minutes away. I needed to take a boat to get there and only had enough time to fill up my backpack full of cobwebs, but I made it back in time with almost about a quarter of an hour left on my mount.
To explain a bit further, the idea is to work within the restrictions of the game: the day/night cycle, the hunger meter or the length of time before the mount disappears. These restrictions work as would real life obstacles and help to recreate, in a small way, reality. For example, I took a break when nightfall hit and built a campfire to rest for a while. The fun part is coming up with the reasons that the game restrictions exist, and a good game like Mabinogi seems to have been developed with this kind of immersive play in mind.
Keep in mind that this is not really a form of roleplay. In my experience, roleplay is acting as something or someone other than yourself. I have met players who have 200 page character biographies, and whose characters are polar opposites of themselves. What I try to do is to make my character on the screen an extension of myself, to act as I would if I were in that situation. Of course, if the game is set in a different time or setting than mine, I would use phrases that are appropriate for the time and place, but I would do it how I would, if my character had my personality.
After I successfully complete one of my routes, I set up shop and sell the cobwebs. After one hour of traveling and gathering and a few more tending my shop, I make about 60-80 thousand gold. Granted, I could make more like one million in that time if I sold other items or played differently, which I have done in the past, but I would not have as much fun.
To me, almost any game can be played in this way, being that even the basic social nature of these games allows for it. Trading is fun because it gives your character a foundation to build a story on, pulls you into areas of the world you might not normally visit, and introduces you to new people. Try it out. Give your character a job to do. Place some rules on how you play and see what happens. Remember to be realistic about what you will tolerate, and above all have fun with it. Try to keep in mind that, like life, an MMORPG provides many more opportunities than we think if we just take a minute to notice.

December 1, 2015
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Kentucky's state auditor says she is deeply troubled by a report criticizing how nearly $5 million of Kentucky's tobacco settlement money was spent during the Fletcher administration.
"I think the board and the staff need to take this very seriously," state auditor Crit Luallen said.
The Lexington Herald-Leader reported the money was to be spent on agriculture marketing grants to get more Kentucky farm products into the marketplace.
