car used reasonably regular ( 3 -4 times weekly) with no problem for 4 years.. last week after being left for 3 days (in garage where it is normally kept) door would not open except manually and car would not start.Even the immobiliser light was not flashing. Our usual mechanic checked it over and found the battery was flat . Fitted new battery. Used cars for several trips over 3 days, then it was in the garage for 3 days unused, Same problem ,couldn't open the door and would not start, no immobiliser light. Battery flat again. Mechanic came round started car using jump leads . He has checked over the car and cannot find any problem with Alternator... is charging battery. Something is obviously draining the battery down... any clues please..?
Sounds like one of your interior lights are staying on. Close the car up with the central locking, make sure the interior lights have gone out. Check the tailgate is closing properly. Eric from Merseyside

With the weather being so hot in the past few days i've been using the air conditioning. when finished work i found a lot of water under the car not sure if its the air conditioning or not. I would be great full if you could let me know if it is and how much water can you get from it as it was a good puddle of water with thanks.
Michael, you will get a pool of water under the car when using aircon.. it is condensate that the aircon system filters out and drops it under the car... can be a fair bit too sometimes depending on weather condition outside your air-conned car.., how long you were driving the car, how efficient the aircon is...

My Ford Galaxy (Ghia) 1.9 TD has an electronic problem. The hazard lights flash for no apparent reason while out driving and it`s very difficult to stop them. If the driver's or passenger window is activated they will flash again. The rear windows will not open at all and the rear wiper refuses to work. I've checked the fuses and they are okay. I can't help thinking there is a bad earth or connection of some sort not working. A friend says it's the 'control box'. What's that? Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Hi Want to but a demo Kuga 2015, but engine block light stays on and manual indicates engine malfunction. However the dealer says their onboard computer system has diagnosed some exhaust emission sensor faulty. Is this so, and what procedure needs to be followed to correct the above? Does the sensor need replacing, and, or, could their be some other proble? Is this a serious problem? Should I look for another Kuga?
It is most probably the diesel particulate filter sensor. They are easy to replace but since you have taken it to a dealer would make sense for them to deal with it. Expect to pay around £250 including fitting. Alan Shaw from Essex
DPM sensor replacement indeed - I was charged just under £500 for this by TCH Burton on Trent. I queried the cost with TCH and Ford Cust Services but got nowhere. Shop around for price, including independants. Still love my Kuga, but that was a slap in the face. Never going back to a main dealer again. Their loss! Barry Bexson from Derbyshire

I have a 2010 ford kuga tdi, the indicators do not flash when the doors are centrally locked, only when they are double locked. The garage have told me this is standard on my model but I don't think this is correct, would anybody know the answer . Also my wheels spin in damp weather when accelerating garage say this is also normal.
Indicators only flash when double locked, this is normal. If your whells are spinning, either you have a heavy right foot or your tyres need to be checked for wear. Alan Shaw from Essex

Had this car 15 months with no problems at all. Went into supermarket to do a shop came back and my key fob would not work, I thought the battery in the fob must be dead. I unlocked the doors manually but the car still wouldnt acknowledge the key to start. So I had to put the key into the ignition and the car started first time and I was able to take the key from the ignition. But now my (i) light is on all the time, my indicators work in the outside but do not show up on the dash or make a noise, my temperature monitor is not registeringredients a temp either. I can not gain acces to my boot at all. Can anyone please shed any light what my next move is?
You may need to do a soft reset of the system. Disconect positive laad from battery (first check you have a radio code). Connect a low wattage 12 volt bulb in series between the disconnected positive lead and ground. Bulb will glow for a few moments then gradually dim then go out. Disconnect your test bulb wiring and reconnect your postive battery lead to battery. Everything should now work although you will need to enter code on radio to get it to operate again.

I will have trouble starting it for a couple of minutes as it will cut out with the battery light and oil light coming on. It has oil and the battery has been checked. I will try to start going again but when I push my foot on the excellent or the battery light will flash and it will cut the car out.

My wife has a 2009 KA which developed a knocking sound which is only audible on a slightly bumpy road, however, we cannot find where this is coming from. We have just had it MOT'd and the mechanic said it needed front anti roll bar bushes and roll bar end links, which we had him change. The knocking is still there. We have now had 3 mechanics look at it and nobody can find where this noise is coming from, and frankly it is driving us mad. Has anyone else had the same experience with their KA, having the same issue and can anyone offer any advice on what it could possibly be. My friend has a Fiesta and his is also doing the same thing and he has not been able to have that diagnosed anywhere either, so is this a Ford trait.

When I start the car a message comes up saying power steering malfunction then disappears the message does not store in the message box. This doesn't happen all the time but at least 3 times a week we have taken the car to ford and they have been unable to find any faults with the power steering, has anyone else had this issue
If the wheels are turned for some reason when you parked up this happens when you restart it the message appears don't no why but it happens aswell to mine. but it could be the battery it's shocking that if your battery is low you lose all power to your steering it's quite scary Lee bogle from West Midlands

My orange warning light has been on constantly for about 5 days. I topped up my engine oil as I thought it was that, but the light continues to be on. I have checked the oil cap and water coolant cap is on properly.
Diane.. if engine oil was low there would be a RED light on. An orange light is generally one that advises or warns you that something is not quite right and to have it checked out. It will almost certainly be an orange light with a symbol.. describe what the symbol looks like then check it out in the handbook.. if you have no handbook do a google search for a likeness R Evans from Caerphilly

First Registered June 2015 and really pleased, no problems, but i cant understand that the following. When pulling away from either my drive, traffic lights etc as i allow the clutch to come out the engine revs increase and i pull away, BUT i have not even put my foot anywhere near the throttle . Tried it with my right foot under the seat and well away from the peddle , the revs increase to about 1200 all on their own. Any ideas please
Fairly sure this is normal behaviour. My Kuga does likewise, but then so did the C Max I had previously. I personally like this feature, in traffic queues it is quite possible to crawl in traffic without ever having to touch the throttle and I can't see any downside to this at all. But I would also like to ask if anyone has experienced the following weird behaviour When pressing the start button (a 15 reg kuga 150hp) there sometimes can be some slight hesitation, then when you let go the button, that seems to turn the engine, but I get a most alarming situation where the engine appears to fire up as if running backwards, or run on just one cylinder. I know that sounds barmy, but the result is the engine runs so violently rough it shakes and bangs around inside the engine bay and I'm scared stiff it will rip itself off its mounts! The engine runs like this for a few seconds, and I'm in such a panic mode I'm not sure what stops it, I certainly jab the start button again to try and stop the engine, but not sure if that is what actually does stop it. Anyone else ever experienced this or knows what's going on. Peter Hopley from Derbyshire

My fan heater is only working on number 4 any help please
If your heater sustem is otherwise working fine.. i.e. hot and cold, but your blower will only respond to OFf and Full blast then you probably have a defective speed control resistor... or the connector plug to is is deteriorated. Many people have this issue and change the whole of the blower at great expense and a lot of work, when a resistor is always much cheaper and nearly always easier tto fit. Had this prob with my Citroen Relay and removed the resistor.. found the multiplug to it had one defective connection.. removed, cleaned and reattached connections and it now works fine.. turns out my resistor was good anyway.. cost..

Heater hose blew off, steam coming from under bonnet , car did not overheat, (thermostat is ok) been advised to have water pump checked, although computer showed no sign of trouble with the water pump...are there any other symptoms which would tell me what caused this please... many thanks...
Linda, there could be a blockage somewhere but there could also be a problem with the water pump.. thing is.. garages say "didn't show up on the diagnostics"... well.. a water pump is mechanical and a fault in it won't necessarily show up on electronic diagnostics... there has been a tendency lately for people to consider the computer diagnostics as the dogs thingies.. and it can be.. in the right situation. You may still have issue with water pump. However, pressure building up high enough in cooling system to blow a hose potentially could be a sign of head gasket failure.. the high pressures built up in cylinders leaking into the cooling channels which are very close by.

The cooling fans are not working on my Mondeo and it is overheating. Have checked fuses and they are fine. Before the fans stopped working I had noticed that when the fan was working it was very loud
Rachel, it sounds like the bearings in the fan may have gone. with the engine off.. try manually turning the fan blade around and see how much resistance there is.. if it grinds and/or shows resistance to turning then that's it. The fan should turn around freely and smoothly. R Evans from Caerphilly

Andrew, some of your safety related components are sending messages to the ecu that IT interprets as faulty.. you ought to get a diagnostic scan done to find what the problem is.

Flat Battery . Needs recharging or jump leads.... bruck morton from Suffolk
Bruck thinks you have a flat battery.. (maybe defective) symptoms are consistent with that, but could also be loose connection somewhere.. test the battery voltage before doing anything else.. with all in OFF position it should be around 12.4 at the terminals, but over 12v. (If under 12v then you should change the battery) If already over 12v, try jumping it and if it works and gets the engine running, test the voltage across the battery with it running in order to test alternator output.. should be around 13.5-14v.. if it IS, then alternator is fine and battery defective. A discharged battery can be recharged and work fine for a while.. but if it is defective it is not likely to retain charge and will go kaput sooner or later.. do you want to risk being in the middle of nowhere and that happen? If your battery and alternator testing all come up fine then it could be connections to the starter motor or more likely the starter motor itself. R Evans from Caerphilly

23 hours and 15 minutes and counting!
Dear Inkspots Nelson (aka Dawn)- I really think you missed your true calling. You must have been a news reporter/writer/journalist in a previous life! Kudos to you on another fabulous pick for Lynn and approaching new member of her family!
Lynn – You must be waiting with baited breath – we are all so excited and happy for you. Congrats on your new "Cocoa"! I just knew you would pick that name – How perfect! (Reminds me of Hot Chocolate? !) Ha Ha!
Inkspots, how did you get the news so fast?!?!?! Oh, wait, there are NO secrets here in the Garden. ROTFLOL Plus, you have an excellent nose for news…..and an anonymous source in the Chicago area…..
Dawn, what a delightful pick! Love that clock for our countdown! Shortly after 6 PM, I told Bob, "Less than 24 hours now!!!"
We are going to spell her name "Coco" — as in Coco Chanel — since she IS a French poodle…..tee hee…..
We went to the pet store this evening and had a name tag made for her.
Lynn: Sorry about the spelling. I should have known since she is a FRENCH Poodle. I love Coco Chanel, espec. her perfumes. Very cute name – just perfect! tee hee!
Happy new puppy!
I should have gotten that right. Okay a Corrections now issued to the proper spelling. It is Coco Everyone! Pay attention you girls! Oh yes I could have suggested Frenchy/Frenchie but didn't want to get thrown out of the garden! Yes I do have my Chicago sources but a good journalist never reveals his/her sources!
Well now that the name is carved in stone er make that a dog tag it is official.
I have a fresh pick the editor and cheif is sending me to. I hear it is another pick for Coco. I will report with any further updates!
Inkspots Nelson
LB Daily Pen
How precious is this? Great pick, Dawn! And great fun!
Lynn, congrats! Coco is a lucky little furry gal to have you!
Yippee….Coco!! How exciting for you and Bob…I can understand why you would be counting down the hours! Will you get any sleep tonight?
And I have to agree with Harriet….Dawn has missed her calling!! Great reporting!!
Thanks, ladies! It WILL be hard to sleep tonight!
Dawn, you really do have a knack for story telling/reporting! Love to read what you write!
Thank-you ladies! I suppose it it not to late to come out of retirement and become a journalist/reporter. Any one out there want to give me a part time job/column?
Perhaps you could write for "Dog Fancy" magazine, Dawn!
Now that is a thought! I had better polish up the ole resume' and submit it for possibitlies.
Lynn, félicitations pour votre nouveau chiot Coco!
Merci, DD! Luckily, I took 3 years of French in high school…..LOL
How wonderful to see Inkspot out of retirement and reporting once again! Obviously shows great talent for reporting that includes excellent visual interest!
Lynn, I am waiting with great anticipation for the announcement that Coco has arrived at the door of her new home and has taken up residence. I'm sure that you and Bob have properly prepared for the new arrival and that she will settle in quite comfortably. Pictures to follow I hope???
Oh, yes, Deb — I'm sure we'll be taking lots of photos of Coco! Kind of like having a new baby come home from the hospital…..LOL
Coco's new bed, collar & leash, toys, food & water bowls, blankets — all are awaiting her arrival!
Lynn are you on Eastern or Central time? I am not sure where you fit in. Did you get any sleep last night?
Attention Readers this is Inkspot Nelson brings you the latest and greatest! I understand that the midwest is under a snowstorm watch…..Ha Ha just fooling…..Lynn hs reported to me that her unbearble wait is now less than 4 hours. Will Lynn and Bob get thru this harrowing time? I will kepp all post as the clock ticks!
Inkspot Nelson
LB Daily Pen!
Inkspot, we are on Eastern time — we are the same time as is posted above the comments. We did get quite a bit of snow today, but neither rain, not sleet, nor dark of night will keep us from picking up Coco today!!! Less than 3 hours to go…
Bob is keeping busy at work, while I've been busy cleaning the house. Guess I'm wanting to make a good impression on Coco! Once she's lived here awhile, she'll see what I'm really like in the cleaning department!!! ROTFLOL
I did get some sleep last night, though I kept waking up and looking at the clock…LOL
I bet Lynn and Bob have already left to get their new fru baby Coco. I can't wait to hear what she has to say!

'Good Wife' Julianna Margulies Turns Bad for Bazaar
Julianna Margulies goes from being "The Good Wife" to one sultry woman. Featured in the January issue of Harper's Bazaar which is on sale December 21, the depicter of political wife Alicia Florrick in the CBS series put on lingerie and seductive look when posing for the featured spread.
The accompanying interview with co-star Alan Cumming also discussed what "sexy" means to her. "Two scoops of double-chocolate-chip ice cream in a bowl with some chocolate syrup," the Golden Globe winner defined the word. She also said that Alicia is "so far" from who she is when it comes to sexuality.
Cumming then asked, "When do you feel sexy?" She replied, "It depends what mood I'm in. When I'm tired, I don't feel very sexy. I feel sexy when I'm happy. If I'm going out on a date with my husband, I want to feel sexy. I want him to see me that way. So I think you have to make an effort. When you're in love, you feel sexy. It's an endorphin that comes out, but in a different way than endorphins after you've worked out. I never feel that sexy after I work out [laughs]. Well, maybe after the shower."
Her recipe to get an amazing body at her age are frequently visiting the gym and forgiving herself for chocolate every now and then. Parent to two-year-old boy, Margulies felt sexy when she was pregnant "till the very end, when it just became uncomfortable." The full interview and Margulies' sexy pictures can be viewed at HarpersBazaar.com.

Airlines Reject Germany's Proposed Environmental Tax
The aviation industry reacted negatively to German Chancellor Angela Merkel's proposal to levy an environmental surcharge on airline passengers flying out of German airports, according to press reports.
The Associated Press reported that Lufthansa's Chief Executive Wolfgang Mayrhuber estimated the tax would increase ticket prices by $9.5 – $19 a ticket.
Merkel said she wanted the tax in place until aviation emissions are included in Europe's carbon trading scheme, which go into effect in 2012, at which point the tax would be repealed, according to the Times of London. Lufthansa has previously said it is in favor of delaying implementation of a carbon trading scheme. According to the AP report, the tax would raise $1.19 billion. Passengers embarking from British airports already pay a similar tax.
The CEO of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), Giovanni Bisignani, said the tax would harm the aviation industry and confer no environmental benefit. He said governments could assist the industry in reaching its goals by improving infrastructure and investing in and providing financial incentives to drive innovation.
Meanwhile, the IATA asked governments to work together to support the industry's goal of increasing fuel efficiency 1.5 percent each year. That goal would mean cutting CO2 emissions by half of their 2005 levels by 2050 and switching from traditional kerosene-based jet fuel to compressed natural gas within the next ten years. Using biofuels and implementing energy saving technology can also help achieve that goal, he said. Airbus parent EADS recently tested a plane powered by an algae-based biofuel.
According to reports, Paul Steele, director of aviation environment at IATA, said the industry had reduced CO2 emissions by 71.4 million tons from 2004 to 2009. Bisignani said airlines must also reduce the amount of fuel wasted from inefficiency by up to 18 percent, equivalent to 120 million tons of CO2.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Video- Joffrey Lupul Goal May Be Questioned
by Paul on 02/01/14 at 10:05 PM ET
Comments (5)
Neutral fans, what do you think, should Kadri been whistled for a penalty?
Filed in: | KK Hockey | Permalink
Tags: joffrey+lupul, nazem+kadri
You can see the ref miss the check, he's caught turning his head after he lost the play to his right. No question he would have called it if he had seen it.
Posted by sjketcheson from the floor of the Hasek on 02/01/14 at 10:13 PM ET
Not a fan of either team but I feel that definitely should have been whistled down.
Posted by flowerdew on 02/01/14 at 10:37 PM ET
It should have been boarding, and Khadri's pass should have caused the play to be whistled. It wasn't called, so good goal.
And remember - plays like these are why we have two referees on the ice now.

Exactly. What the heck was the other ref looking at?
Posted by mrfluffy from A wide spot on I-90 in Montana on 02/02/14 at 02:35 AM ET
That was a nasty looking hit. Definitely should have been 5 and a game. I won't be surprised to see him sit for a couple games too.

May is Disability Insurance Awareness Month (DIAM), a chance for the industry to draw attention to this important issue.
The month will be spent focusing consumer awareness on the importance of disability income insurance and supporting producers in their continuing effort to provide coverage to those without.
LIFE Foundation, which helps coordinate DIAM, uses outreach to the print media, radio public-service announcements, advertising as well as sections on their Web site (www.lifehappens.org/diam) and blog (www.lifehappens.org/blog) focusing on the matter to head the effort.
The Foundation also offers a variety of tools to help producers with the marketing and sales of DI insurance including:

Great service. Great variety. Will definitely use again on our next visit to Disney.
Love using Garden Grocer. Our groceries always arrive at our resort before we do. Order is also always correct and packed well. They have anything we could possibly want to order. Will use them again and again!
This was my first time using Garden Grocer and we will definitely use again! Our groceries arrived on time and as described. It was great having my favorite snacks and beverages available at our Disney resort, and we saved time and money by eating breakfast in our room before hitting the parks. Fantastic service!

SOCHI, February 8. /TASS/. King Hamad ibn Asa Al Khalifa, of Bahrain, who earlier in the day held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin has received an Akhal-Teke horse as a gift from the Russian leader. In return, Putin was presented with a Damascus steel sword.
As the Kremlin's press-service has said, the horse called Khadjibek (year of birth 2012) was the breed's world champion in 2015, overall world champion in 2014 and winner of the world championship for young horses in 2014.
In return, King Hamad presented Putin with a sword, made under a special royal order. The blade is made of Damascus steel, and the scabbard and handle, of precious metals.
Putin and King Hamad held talks in the Black Sea resort of Sochi earlier on Monday.

Easy access to increasingly hardcore pornography and the sexualisation of childhood are being blamed for a rise in the number of children sexually abusing each other.
Growing numbers of children and teenagers are committing acts of sexual abuse against other children every year, with some as young as 11 being prosecuted for sexual offences.
Experts are calling for compulsory cyber-education programmes in all schools from primary level to stem the impact of explicit material.
Ministry of Justice figures received under the Official Information Act show that, since 2008, there have been 1299 prosecutions for sexual offences brought against young people under the age of 18.
This has risen steadily over the past five years, with 314 prosecutions last year compared to 204 in 2008. These are for offences ranging from rape to indecent assault and sexual grooming, with victims, both male and female, under the age of 16.
The youngest offender was 11. Only one of the offenders was a girl. Police say the jump in prosecutions was due to better knowledge and increased reporting of sexual abuse, rather than a rise in incidents.
Police child protection co-ordinator Detective Sergeant Fleur de Bes said police worked much more closely with agencies such as Child, Youth and Family, social workers and schools to identify and address risky behaviour.
But the availability of explicit images online for young children to access undoubtedly had some impact, with the growth of "sexting" a real concern, she said.
Child Matters chief executive Anthea Simcock said the findings were in line with overseas research, which showed an increasing number of young people abusing others.
A lot of the young abusers were victims themselves, often came from broken homes, and had an unstable and often "heartbreaking" upbringing. But the way sex was depicted on television and on the internet was a real problem, with sexualised music videos and easy access to online porn making images easy to find and share, she said.
"Children don't think about their bodies the way adults do, so someone has had to have put that idea in their head. This online porn can make some children think it's just the way you behave."
Netsafe chief technology officer Sean Lyons said parents could put filters on their home computers or children's smartphones, but access could never be completely restricted. Not all searches were sinister, with porn fairly easy to come across accidentally.
"You type 'kiwi chicks' into Google and the images that come back won't be small feathered birds."
It was important to speak to children about the possibility of coming across these images and their meaning.
In May, a British study found a clear link between exposure to extreme images at a young age and a rise in "risky behaviours". Auckland University expert in clinical and forensic psychology Ian Lambie said more research was needed on the impact on Kiwi children.
