Coolant Temperature Too High..??
i own a 2007 chevy cobalt ls coupe. in traffic, my car goes up to 220 degrees, even when im not moving, and once i start to drive, it goes down. if im not moving, the fan kicks on at 220 degrees. i dont think this is normal. i have taken it to the dealership. the first time, they said it had the wrong type of coolant in it, it was supposed to be red, but i dont think that matters. they charged me for it. next day, im driving in the city in traffic and all of a sudden it went up again to 220 degrees, so now it is the second time i take it to the dealership, i wonder what theyll say this time...is anyone having problems like this too with their chevy cobalt?
25 Answers
I am pretty sure that is the correct temperature that the fan should go on - between 215-220 As you start to drive temp should go no lower than 195 as thats where the thermostat should close to keep temp at that temperature.
Follow up : Actually Normal is much hotter on this vehicle "The PCM commands Low Speed Fans ON under the following conditions: Engine coolant temperature (ECT) exceeds approximately 106°C (223°F). After the vehicle is shut off, the ECT at key-off is greater than 140°C (284°F) and system voltage is more than 12 volts . The fans will stay on for approximately 3 minutes. The PCM commands High Speed Fans ON under the following conditions: ECT reaches 110°C (230°F)
same thing here. i got my cobalt 1 year ago. it hasn't reached 220 yet. just 217. if i sit at a red light it goes up. start to move and the temp goes down. any help from you would be great!!i hate to take it back to the dealer as i need a car for work.
mine is the same nothing is rong with your cars its allways between 90c and 110 but my fan kicks in at 102c
If your engine goes over 220 degrees you may have a problem with the fan relays. Does the high speed fan kick on or just the low one? I'd find a second dealer and not go to the one that said the wrong color coolant is in the motor and charges you for the change. Next they'll tell you your muffler bearing is worn out and needs replacement.
I have a cobalt 2008 and I'm from Iraq, where the temperature reaches 110 only in the case of stop at the house out to the outside water please I want to reply please help me
???????? I'm from So. California where the temp will reach 110 and above. Some places it is near 120 in the shade. We have learned to keep the vehicle coolant clean, flushed out, good fan belts and coolant filled with the proper antifreeze, not just water. We make sure the electric fans if equipped work, and the hoses are in good condition. So what is your question from Iraq? Just type in your question and hit, Post Your Answer"
Cars are designed to run too hot these days all for emissions purposes. My Malibu fans would not go high speed until 228 degrees. Aluminum heads will easily crack around 240 to 250,so I went aftermarket to keep my coolant around 200 at all times just to be safe.(a cracked head is a very expensive thing) At 228 things can malfunction with your cooling system allowing your car to easily overheat(I live in Texas)So,if you live in a hot climate,go with a cooler thermostat,cooler fan relays,and save your engine.
I am currently driving a 2010 Cobalt 2.2 auto with less that 10000km on it.With the outside temp at 60-70f the coolant temp will go to 221F.Then the rad cooling fan comes on and lowers the temp. Some websites say this is normal, others say their Cobalts run at 194f.The 221Fmay be normal for many, but I don't think it is right to have to constantly depend on the cooling fan to keep the engine temperature in check. My previous 2001 Sunfire 2.2 auto ran at 194f and the rad fan seldom came on, maybe once a year. I was worried it would seize from lack of use. Turning the Cobalt AC on will turn on the rad fan, and keep the engine at around 200F. I am worried about long term damage to this aluminum engine and head.I have checked that all the air is bled out of the cooling system and the coolant mix is 50/50 . Did GM make so many defective thermostats that half the Cobalts run at 194F and half at F so that no one knows what is right ?. Are garages now starting to see Cobalts come in with engines damaged from running too hot? Does anyone have an explanation for the high temperature? May 2004
^manpersun - I also have 2010 Cobalt LS coupe I noticed the other day driving in Florida weather, not that hot mind you but after a short day of driving the temperature picked up from 195 to 210 quick. The idle for the engine had a slight slow rev up and down. It sounded somewhat putt putt. Later that night after being off for a few hours, then having a short drive by the time the car was home it hit 208. I let it run for about 10 minutes where it hit 218 and the second fan kicked in and brought the temperature back to 180 in the garage on a cool night. I will see where and if the idle shows issue along with the quick heating. All I've been told about the car is it is run completely on sensors and electronics that indicate issues. Without a problem light to indicate a problem, there is "nothing worth looking at" to Chevrolet.
When a car is on the move, there is continuous airflow over the radiator from outside that cools the coolant flowing in it. But when the car is stationary, the cooling happens only when the radiator fan gets turned on. This depends on the thermostat setting. The error in its setting can be +/- 2 deg C or +/- 5 deg F
The fans should come on between 217 and 225. The temp sensor can have a few degrees difference. Now the car should not be at this temperature all the time. If you are having problems with high temp but not over heating check your coolant. Make sure the water to antifreeze ratio is correct and that the coolant is clean and there is no scaling. Another easy simple and over looked step is to rinse the front of the radiator with a garden hose. You will be suprised how much cooler your car will run just by doing that.
I built my engine on my 69 Corvette so it puts out more heat. The more houses under the hood, the more heat it produces. I also have aluminum heads, which helps just a little in cooling over iron heads. I bypassed my thermostats on my two electrical fans, (got rid of the GM clutch fan) and they run all the time. It keeps my engine cool and from overheating. This model Corvette always had heating issues even when new. Air flow was a main factor. I have two coolant gauges, one on the rear block and one just before the thermostat. I run around 175 on the highway and 195 in town in the summer. If I run the A/C it will go over 210. Smog is not an issue, and I have two Edlebrock 4 barrel carburetors, not an EFI set up. If overheating is a concern, think of bypassing the thermostats and run the fans full time.
I have a 06 chevy cobalt and the fan will not cut on the temperature gets up to 190 and i have to shut her down when im driving it gose down but not much to about 181 idk what to do the fan will not cut on from what i can tell i just replaced the relays and thermostat and dont seem to help.
The fan relays may have a switch that will move the ]fan to run all the time. If not, and you're not that well versed, 99% are not so don't feel left out, have a radiator specialist bypass the relay so it run constantly, or even put a manual switch in the cock pit you can turn on if the temp rises. Have one fan run constantly, and with a kill switch if you're in cold country, (as of now this year, that's 47 states.) to shut it off if it gets too cold, and let the engine heat up.
Tengo un pontiac sunfire 2.2 del 2002 y quisiera saber cual es la temperatura normal
That would be 82 Celsius, or 180 Fahrenheit should be normal for the 2002 Sunfire.
I have a 2009 2.2L sedan. I was having those same issues when my car was new. I was driving down narrow downtown roads doing 20mph and stopping often. The high temps increased when I would have to stop. I took it to the dealership and they told me "those kinds of temps (215-220F) are normal for these small engines." I am normally between 175 - 185F. Lately we have had higher than normal temps, around 100F, so the coolant temp has gone above 200F plenty of times. Recently I was marching up Santiam Pass in the mountains of Oregon. I was holding speed at about 60 mph while climbing the pass. It was around 90 degrees outside, and I was cranking the A/C full blast. I made it up the hill using 4th gear pretty much the entire way, and my coolant was 217F when I reached the top.Not to mention I was going on vacation with my family, so the car was jam packed, and I am one of the heaviest guys that has ever driven a Cobalt. All I'm trying to say is the car was working hard. In the end, I feel the 220F coolant temp is okay. Of course, if there is a strange noise, or an insane lack of power there might be something wrong. I have 109,000 miles now and have been running hot since it was brand new.
Hi... i have a calbolt ls 2005 2.2 ecotech motor.. i was driving n cracked the oil pan.. i had no way to get home so i drove it as far as i could my friend gave be a boost n he told me to put it n nutral n when i did it went a little ways then the cars was lagging it shut down by the house n i parked it the nxt day i checked it. It wouldent turn over but the. Engine n the car w the lock light thing was on. so dose calbolt have safty feathers to it so my car wouldnt over heat
Jarrick: 1. did it drain the oil out if you cracked the oil pan? 2. If it was leaking oil, did you keep replacing it? 3. what was the oil pressure while driving it? 4. did the engine overheat? 5. was there any unusual nice when driving? 6. Why did you stop by the house or did the car stop itself? If you ran it out of oil, it overheated. You may have what's called, spinning a bearing and the engine froze up. It will mean a major overhaul or new engine depending on the damage done. How did you break the oil pan? You could of gotten an airplane ticket to Australia for less than it may cost to repair the car. You should of left it parked, took a cab or bus home, and had it looked at before any damage happened to the internal parts of the engine. Just from the information you gave, your engine is toast.
I have 2008 sport coupe and today mine went to 260 and all my coolant poured out of my car so I added more and it's fine I'm so confused from it
i have 08 chevy cobalt live in Tricities Washington State and had the water pump replaced with the thermostat as well, but since then the temperature exceeds 230 F and the lower radiator hose stays cold and the thermostat is not opening and i have the heater works fine ,,, i thought the thermostat is defected and replaced it as well, i even checked if i installed the thermostat the right way when i checked the fan, it was coming on with cold air comes through . Anyone has any clue ?
I run in my 06 cobalt lt coupe around 181oF
My 05 averages 180 - 190
That is a good temp to run. The newer cars, (older that mid 70s) do run hotter. It also depends where the sensor is placed as to the true temp recorded. If it bothers you, you can always replace the thermostat with a cooler one, but check first to make sure the car will run properly with a cooler thermostat. If it runs below what it is designed for, the computer will try to make adjustments and it may affect power, mileage, and smog emotions. In the mean time, make sure your radiator is clean of bugs, leaves and other obstacles that may restrict the air flow and transfer of heat,and cooling air. Water boils at 220 degrees, and a sealed system in the newer engines allows the coolant to reach a much higher temp before boiling.

This review is from: NETGEAR CM500-100NAS DOCSIS 3.0 High Speed Cable Modem - Certified for Comcast XFINITY, Time Warner Cable, Cox, Charter & More
Pros: Fast... when it works.
Cons: Constantly disconnects, lights turn red, got really hot and rebooted itself. Tried swapping out my modem, cables, splitters. Still wasn't working right. Plugged my old modem back in, works fine with the same setup. Albeit slower (which is why I "upgraded"). So far Netgear's RMA process is more painful than it should be, and Newegg has been no help.
Other Thoughts: I probably just got a bad one, but still, this has been more trouble than it's worth. Wish I'd gotten a different modem. From somewhere else. Very disappointed.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Replacement Touch Screen Digitizer Glass& 7Pcs Repair Tools For iPhone 5/5s
Pros: Screen looks fine, no cracks or anything, just wondering if it works.
Cons: Couldn't use either screwdriver, the main reason I bought this. These iPhones have very specific screws, which this claims to be designed to fit. Maybe they sent the wrong ones, maybe you just get what you pay for. Least it was only five bucks.
Other Thoughts: When I have more time, I'll just go into a store and get the right kind, if I can find them. Kind of hesitant to buy them online now, even the ones that are more specific and give their exact measurements, which this did not. Should have been a red flag. Caveat emptor kids.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: BenQ BL3200PT Black 32" 4ms (GTG) HDMI WQHD Widescreen LCD/LED Monitor, 300 cd/m2 DCR 20,000,000:1 (3000:1), CAD/CAM Mode, Animation Mode, Built-in Speakers, VESA Mountable, Height Adjustment, USB Hub
Pros: I've only had it for a few days, but so far so good. Price wasn't bad. Picture quality is good. Not perfect, but good. I didn't see any ghosting or flickering on anything I tried it on. Plenty of ways to connect it. Using dual DVI now, but tested on HDMI and mini-displayport to HDMI. Displayport and VGA are handy, though I don't know if I'd bother with VGA. Works ok at reduced resolutions (I have it at 1360x768 at 60 hertz, probably too low but clearer than others with that as their default resolution). Thin (though oddly heavy), doesn't use a lot of power, decent looking base. For the price I paid (on sale via NewEggFlash) it was probably worth it. There are cheaper monitors that can also be used as TVs, and vice-versa, but it's nice to be able to switch back to a spare display when I need it and still be able to clearly read the text. A lot of these that are TVs first are terrible monitors. Can't find any dead pixels, that's a plus.
Cons: Blue. Very blue. Very, very, very blue. I cannot begin to describe to you how blue the screen looked on first connection until I calibrated it. I actually thought something might be wrong with it or the cable, though I tried the old cable that worked on my last monitor and it did the same thing. Calibration tools that came with it aren't great, so I used the app built in to OS X and it worked fine. I thought it would be nice to have that little OSD controller since so many new monitors make it difficult or impossible to change settings, but it was unwieldy and wound up being useless to me anyway. As I said, text is legible at low resolutions and is better than most cheap TVs, but it doesn't scale perfectly. Some monitors are better at this than others (the newer HP and Dell 30" monitors are good for that but more expensive, the later Apple Cinema Displays sometimes too). Note that it's a 32" 2560x1440 monitor, not a 30" 2560x1600. I didn't think about that, so the resolutions don't match what I currently have when I scale. I thought I could adjust it more, but you don't want to. Not a big deal for my purposes, but a heads up to those who it might affect. Seriously, blue.
Other Thoughts: There are cheaper monitors that aren't as nice, but there are more expensive monitors that also aren't as nice. I have an older HP 30" that still demands a pretty penny, and this is probably better. No flicker at higher resolutions and text is definitely better until you put the resolution too low. Easily rivals the old Samsung I had. The newer 30" monitors like the HPs and Dells I've seen are better, but more expensive by a few hundred dollars. Most with less connectivity. There are some out there that are much better, but much more expensive. Some of the NECs come to mind, but unless you have money to burn or use it in a hospital for imaging, not worth it IMO. I prefer this over the similarly priced larger monitors and smaller TVs, and a few of the ones I've used in the past, so I'm fine with my purchase. It works for what I need it to. If you have the extra money to spend and don't need the extra connectivity, the HP ZR30w is pretty good in my experience, the newer one supposedly even better. If you want to go cheaper, or comparable pricing, for 2560x1600 30" monitors, there are some other well reviewed ones here and elsewhere. Seems to be hit and miss as to what you get with those though. True most of them use the same or similar panels, but there's more to a monitor than just the panel. I probably could have saved money and gotten the similar 27" Benq, has great reviews, but I'm glad I splurged. I could have splurged more, but cost is a factor for me. Though not so much that I wanted to go too cheap. So it's a nice middleground I guess.READ FULL REVIEW

It looks nice. Too bad it does not manage featured images.
It looks nice. Too bad it does not manage featured images.
I believe that I will add it in a next release...
Sorry for the late reponse
The new release includes this feature :)
Thanks, I will take a look at it.
And tell me if it fit your needs ... I am interested
I just see that I hardcoded that the thumb image is 116x116 ... oups :)
I will modify the plugin so that you may choose the size in a next version
Version 1.1.1 corrects this mistake
I don't like the concept of resizing by CSS the image. For me the best solution is to propose to choose between the different thumbnail sizes created by WP and the theme - featured images.
Another thing: it coult me more convenient to have a linkable image. It's more easy to click an image than a text link.
Agree with the non-resize issue (but I used the embeded function of wordpress get_the_post_thumbnail and wp_get_attachment_image
==> I will look into it to see if there is a way to used resized image
Agree with you idea of linkable image
Ok I have implemented your ideas on my free time... before releasing a new version do you mind testing a beta version to see if every thing ok ?
If so, please send me a mail through the feedback tab in the plugin configuration page in your admin panel. I will sent you a file in return :)
All features requested are in 1.1.2
I have take a look at 1.1.3... but no way to choose a already created thumnail size ?
If you select the exact size of an already configured thumbnail size, it will select it without creating a new image I think.
Yes, it works :-) But it needs a lot of work on CSS to adapt the presentation...
Yes I know but works are the counterpart of great possibility of customisation :)

Does anyone know of any Running Fundraisers that have been done stateside for Human Trafficking Awareness? I know there are runs for MS, Breast Cancer, etc. but I have found very few bringing any awareness to local communities on Human Trafficking or "running to free" these who are victims!
Let's take a stand and fight this multi-billion dollar industry that is ruining the lives of those it harms.
I am also looking for a running fundraiser against human trafficking and would love to volunteer for one if there are any! Do you happen to know any other grassroots organizations against trafficking that I can volunteer for? Any help would be greatly appreciated
WHere do you live? I am in Kansas City and just did a walk on Saturday but it wasn't what I was expecting. I talked to the events coordinator and told them I want to join the committee so we could put together a run. We will see what happens.

FORT WORTH - Craig Perks completely overhauled his swing after winning the 2002 Players Championship. This year, he finally realized he had changed too much.
Now he's back on top - at least for a day.
Perks had a bogey-free 6-under 64, including two chip-in birdies, and took the first-round lead Thursday at the Colonial. He led by a stroke over Jesper Parnevik, another golfer looking for a big comeback.
"I didn't see it coming," Perks said. "A round like this, it certainly gives me confidence. It shows me I can still play."
Steve Flesch, who had birdies on four of his first five holes, and Stewart Cink were among five golfers at 66. Defending champion Kenny Perry shot 67, his Colonial-record eighth straight subpar round.
Missing from Hogan's Alley are Vijay Singh, Tiger Woods and Annika Sorenstam, who at last year's Colonial became the first woman in 58 years to play on the PGA Tour.
Phil Mickelson, the Colonial's highest-ranked player (No. 2 on the money list) and 2000 champion, opened with a 71.
Golf has been a struggle for Perks since his only PGA win in what many consider the tour's fifth major.
In 2003, Perks had no top-10 finishes and made 12 of 28 cuts. Before playing last weekend in the Byron Nelson Championship, he had missed 10 of 12 cuts this year, including six in a row while shooting 75 of worse in eight of those rounds. The low point came at the Masters, where he missed the cut by one stroke after a double bogey his last hole.
"I was just nearly lifeless. I just had no energy, I had no passion, no nothing," Perks said. "I was really excited about how I was playing up to that point. But that was the epitome of how my game was. I could play OK, but when it was crunch time, I messed up."
Perks went to Las Vegas in early May for a one-day lesson with coach Butch Harmon. The best advice he got: Focus on improving things he didn't do well consistently and quit worrying about trying to improve every thing.
He still struggles driving, but that's not a big issue on the 7,054-yard Colonial course that Woods won't play because it doesn't suit his game.
LPGA Tour
NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - The three players tied for the first-round lead at the Sybase Classic have a lot more in common than the 5-under-par 66s they shot Thursday.
Silvia Cavalleri, Nadina Taylor and Young-A Yang are looking to win for the first time on the LPGA Tour. They also are trying just to finish in the top 20 of a tournament this year.

London, Apr 22 (EFE).- The Edinburgh Zoo's female giant panda, Tian Tian, underwent artificial insemination over the weekend after she and the facility's male panda, Yang Guang, failed to mate, a zoo spokeswoman said.
Yang Guang (Sunshine) showed interest in Tian Tian (Sweetie), but natural mating did not occur, the zoo spokeswoman said.
Artificial insemination was carried out early Sunday and the bears are well, the zoo spokeswoman said.
The zoo had hoped that Tian Tian and Yang Guang would mate this year after the two bears failed to get romantic in 2012.
The pandas, which are the zoo's stars, arrived in Scotland in 2011 from the reserve in Sichuan, China.
Yang Guang and Tian Tian, both 9, live in a new enclosure whose remodeling cost 250,000 pounds (about $381,400).
Zoo officials are hoping that the pair will have offspring, a rare occurrence in captivity.
China leases the bears to the zoo for 700,000 pounds (about $1.06 million) annually.
Scotland provides an ideal habitat for the pandas, who live in the frigid mountains of Sichuan, the zoo said.

With No One As Witness CD: With No One As Witness CD (Abridged / Compact Disc, Abridged)
Email or call for price
Special Order
In With No One as Witness, her thirteenth novel, Elizabeth George has crafted an intricate and absorbing story sure to enthrall her readers. Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley, along with his longtime partner, the fiery Barbara Havers, and newly promoted Detective Sergeant Winston Nkata, is back, and on the hunt for a sinister killer.
When an adolescent boy's nude body is found mutilated and artfully arranged on the top of a tomb, it takes no large leap for the police to recognize this as the work of a serial killer. This is the fourth victim in three months but the first to be white.
Hoping to avoid charges of institutionalized racism in its failure to pursue the earlier crimes to their conclusion, New Scotland Yard hands the case over to Lynley and his colleagues. The killer is a psychopath who does not intend to be stopped. Worse, a devastating tragedy within the police ranks causes them to fumble in their pursuit of him.
With a surprise ending that will shock readers to the core, With No One as Witness is full of the mesmerizing action and psychological intrigue that are the hallmarks of Elizabeth George's work and continue to prove that she is "a master of the English mystery." (New York Times).
Performed by Charles Keating
About the Author

To the Editor: In addition to the adverse reactions in young blood donors identified in the study by Eder et al,1 it is important to consider iron deficiency, perhaps a more significant though more insidious adverse effect of blood donation by young donors. Adolescent diets, increased iron requirements during a period of growth, and irregular and heavy menstruation may predispose teenagers, particularly females, to iron deficiency even without the added burden of blood donation.2 A recent analysis of the iron status of blood donors in New Zealand (where the minimum age for donation is 16 years and parental consent or the approval of the donor's doctor is not required) found that 19% of 415 participants younger than 20 years had serum ferritin levels less than 12 μg/L, compared with 15.6% and 10.4% of those aged 21 to 50 years and older than 51 years, respectively.3

Fourcade, who claimed Olympic silver in Vancouver in 2010, coupled a near-faultless display on the shooting range with some dominant skiing to come home in a time of 24:58.2.
Second on the day was Russia's clean-shooting Timofey Lapshin, nine tenths of a second behind with Switzerland's Benjamin Weger third.
Fourcade was the first competitor out of the gate and laid down the gauntlet to his rivals who all tried in vain to match his time with Norwegian veteran Ole Einar Bjorndalen rolling back the years to claim fourth.
Bjorndalen's compatriot Emil Hegle Svendsen, who had previously topped the overall standings, could only manage 12th on the day meaning Fourcade sits on 720 points, ten clear of the Norwegian.
In the women's 7.5km sprint Germany's Magdalena Neuner continued to reign supreme as she claimed first, stretching her lead in the overall standings to 33 points.
The 25-year-old stormed to victory in a time of 23:07.4minutes, while defending World Cup champion Kaisa Makarainen was second, 12.3seconds back.
Neuner's closest rival in the overall standings Belarus' Darya Domracheva was a further five seconds back in third.
Neuner, a three-time Olympic gold-medallist, now sits on 876 points atop the standings with Domracheva on 843 and Makarainen 733.

Disbursement of Funds
- Upon their award notification via GSU student e-mail, students must complete all acceptance materials as listed in their online application and/or as described through emails. Failure to do so could result in their loss of their scholarship.
- Please note: In most cases scholarship funds will not be released before students must pay tuition and program fees and in some cases not before students depart for their programs. Students are responsible for covering all such expenses directly and the scholarship will serve as a reimbursement. Federal regulations control this process.

For more information about the necessary financial aid forms for study abroad, please visit our website.
- A list of recipients will be forwarded to the Office of Student Financial Aid, where the awards will be processed. Funds will be posted to the recipient's student account at the time regular financial aid is disbursed for the term abroad (usually the first week of classes for that term). Students should submit the Intent to Study Off Campus form to receive their Financial Aid package as early as possible.
- Under no circumstance will the funds be disbursed directly to a student's program.
- In the event that a student must cancel his or her participation in a program for any reason, the student is required to notify Study Abroad Programs immediately. If a student is removed from a program for any reason, all costs associated with the dismissal will be assessed to the student's student account. Charges for awards that are disbursed prior to withdrawal from a study abroad program will be assessed against the student's student account with a hold placed on registration and graduation until the funds are recovered.
- Please check with our office if funds are not received within the timeline described above. Any problems relating to non-receipt of funds must be resolved within two semesters of the student's program abroad. After this time, any funds not received by the student will be unrecoverable.

Johnnies story: soon after WWII ended Johnnie was in a fancy restaurant in New York City with long time heavyweight champ Joe Louis. I dont know if this was in the late 1940s or early 1950s. According to Johnnie, both he and Louis were broke. They were sitting there trying to figure out how to pay for dinner when in walked Lena Horn with a friend. Louis stood up to invite Horn and her friend to his and Johnnies table, and as he was doing so he told Johnnie to order anything he wanted.
They all had a fancy dinner with fancy drinks. After dinner Louis asked the waiter for the check, which he got, he then proceeded to check it out real good, making sure they were not over-charge, after making sure they were not, he handed the check to Lena Horn telling her take care of this and dont forget to add the tip to it

Are Rocky's methods hurting city business?
Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson's outspoken nature has city employees professing that the man is a beast to work for while equal numbers swear by his do-or-die leadership style and frenetic work pace.
Yet, the latest high-profile shufflings those of Deeda Seed, Anderson's former communications director, and Christy Cordwell, his longtime personal assistant have once again raised questions of how the mayor's personality affects the public's business.
Personality differences are bound to distinguish political leaders, but Salt Lake City Council members say the capital city's mayor single-handedly stalls the city's legislative and cooperative interests throughout the state.
"I think that it's difficult to work with this mayor because this mayor has one opinion," Councilman Eric Jergensen said. "Sometimes he gets so caught up in that one opinion that he's not willing to listen to anyone else. It's very difficult to have a functioning government when one branch of that government is always right and the other is usually wrong."
Anderson said his personality does not hinder the city's business.
"That's just political nonsense," he said.
On the contrary, he believes his methods have enhanced the city's image. "We've made tremendous progress in the city. The energy and passion I bring to the job are contagious."
Anderson's differences with the City Council are well-known and plentiful. There was the spat about the Human Rights Commission (the council established it, Anderson said it was toothless); then the fight about withdrawing support for the Utah League of Cities and Towns (Anderson said the organization doesn't represent Salt Lake City's best interests, the council voted to stay with the league); and finally, Anderson's accusation that council members were voting on city business based on their religious beliefs.
Anderson has also clashed with other mayors, residents of other counties, most notably, Davis County residents, and the Utah Legislature. Confrontations with those people have directly impacted his effectiveness, said Councilman Dave Buhler, who also lobbies for higher education with the Legislature.
"I would not call him a collaborator or someone who listens really well," Buhler said. "With the Legislature, he's the man they love to hate. Unfortunately, he brings it on himself and involves himself in issues that are not city issues."
For instance, Anderson said Davis County residents undermined quality of life in Salt Lake City with their general support of the proposed $750 million Legacy Highway.
Lawmakers said Anderson's vocal dislike of opinions different from his own nearly cost Salt Lake City $4 million for a Salt Palace expansion project. Legislators during the 2005 session also eliminated the possibility of using redevelopment agency projects for the Real Salt Lake professional soccer stadium that Anderson is courting.
New poll results
Anderson's political tactics may also be costing him voter approval, according to a new Deseret Morning News/KSL-TV poll.
Of 230 respondents, 50 percent said they probably or definitely disagree with Anderson's political style. Forty-three percent said they agreed with his style in the survey conducted Aug. 29-Sept. 1. The poll by Dan Jones & Associates has a 7 percent margin of error.
"I'm a firm believer that organizations assume the personality of their leader," said Frank Pignanelli, a lobbyist, former Anderson political opponent, and political columnist for the Deseret Morning News. "Salt Lake City being isolated from the rest of the state is just like Rocky being isolated from the rest of humanity."

The highly anticipated Skyfall film opened in theatres this weekend with a bang and was the largest debut ever for a 007 film (both unadjusted and adjusted for ticket price inflation). Skyfall brought in a whopping $87.8 million, quite obviously earning the top spot at the box office this weekend.
This was also the the seventh largest opening weekend gross of all-time for the month of November. Ahead of Skyfall in this category are only Twilight and Harry Potter movies. I haven't yet seen the film, but all I've heard is good things, with Facebook statuses like, "Skyfall…worth every penny." Did you watch Skyfall this weekend? If so, share your thoughts in the comments on what you thought in comparison to past Bond films.
In second place this weekend was Disney's Wreck-It Ralph which opened last weekend. The film brought it an additional $33 million this weekend taking it's total to an estimated $93.7 million. Find out how the other films did in the top 10 list below.

The Slik Stand motorcycle wheel chock system offers superior stability while hauling a motorcycle in a trailer or truck bed. Low profile chock won't scratch or damage tire sidewalls or brake rotors. Made in the USA
The Slik Stand motorcycle wheel chock offers the ultimate in stability while hauling a motorcycle. Simply attach the Slik Stand to the wooden floor of a trailer with the 2 included bolts, or use optional Slik Nuts (sold separately) for metal surfaces such as pickup beds or metal floor trailers, roll the bike into the chock, attach motorcycle tie-down straps (sold separately) to the cross bar and to the handle bars and secure the rest of the motorcycle. The result is a stable kick stand for the motorcycle that will provide superior transport stability, while not scratching or damaging tire sidewalls or wheels. Also see our optional rear shoe (sold separately) for additional stability when transporting motorcycles and bikes. For Large motorcycles, 2 straps to the Slik Stand and then additional straps to the truck or trailer are recommended for superior transport stability.
The Slik Stand also makes a great work tool! Use it to hold a bike upright and stable for simple maintenance or major repairs. Attach either wheel of the motorcycle to the Slik Stand and the end of the motorcycle not attached can be raised as needed by jacking or any other safe means of lifting. This allows for removal of the front or rear wheel, forks, motor or any other part of the motorcycle. Use the Slik Stand in the garage, the driveway, or anywhere else. Slik Stands are made in the USA with heavy-duty 11 gauge steel, and powder coated for a long lasting, durable finish. These motorcycle wheel chocks are so durable, in fact, that they are backed by a lifetime guarantee.

So my app's core is a tab bar. In each of 3 tabs is a UINavigationController subclass. Each one has a different type of table in it, which when a row is tapped, a detail is shown etc.
I currently have a 3 separate subclasses of UINavigationController, one for each tab. Then when a new tab is pressed, the table's controller is pushed.
I just read that you're not supposed to subclass UINavigationController. I'm not overriding any of UINavigation Controller's functionality, but I am overriding it's UIViewController functionality in viewDidLoad. Honestly that's just about it. It seems pretty silly, but Im unclear on how to get the Navigation Controller functionality without subclassing the way I have.
So how am i supposed to have a UINavigationController that I don't subclass? What is the approach that you're supposed to take to switch out the views when a tab is selected?
I'm pretty much a noob. Will Apple reject my app for subcalssing UINavigationController if im only overriding viewdidload?
I've heard folks say not to subclass UINavigationController, and instead 'present it modally.' I have used modal presentation a little bit, but I honestly dont' quite get how it would apply...
Thanks for your help!

Hi there,
So, a client has approached me requesting that a blog to be added on the site at http://www.ttiexploration.com. I immediately thought of wordpress as the best platform, but the thing is, the site was already built using wordpress...
So, once I have been granted admin rights by someone, is there a possible way to enable the blog features again? I haven't been able to take a look around, but I would imagine that the blog php functions have been commented out on the site.
My only real issue is that typically when I have customized a wordpress template to be more of a website instead of a blog, the home page would normally have the features of posts but in the case at http://www.ttiexploration.com, the home page has been modified very significantly so I don't know where the blog would be even featured on the site.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Daily tablets of the anti-retroviral drug tenofovir disoproxil fumarate reduced HIV incidence by nearly half compared with placebo, according to what was described as the first trial to assess whether preventive treatment with HIV drugs could affect infection rates in people who inject drugs.
For a study to be published on the website of The Lancet, researchers recruited more than 2,400 participants at 17 drug treatment clinics in Bangkok. About half the participants were assigned a daily oral dose of tenofovir and half were assigned placebo. All trial participants were offered monthly HIV testing and risk-reduction counseling and services, plus access to drug rehabilitation treatment.
Participants were followed for an average of four years. Overall, 17 participants in the tenofovir group became infected with HIV, compared with 33 in the placebo group, indicating a reduction in HIV risk of 48.9%. Further analyses of the results showed that the protective effect of the antivirals was best when participants adhered closely to the prescribing regime.
Previous studies have established that pre-exposure prophylaxis effectively reduces sexual transmission of HIV in both heterosexual couples and men who have sex with men, and mother-to-child transmission of HIV. However, this study is said to be the first to show the approach also is effective among people who inject drugs.
This study completes the picture of PrEP efficacy for all major risk groups, Michael Martin, MD, MPH, one of the lead investigators of the study and chief of clinical research for the Thailand Ministry of Public Health-CDC Collaboration, said in a news release. We now know that pre-exposure prophylaxis can be a potentially vital option for HIV prevention in people at very high risk of infection, whether through sexual transmission or injecting drug use.
Adherence was a key factor determining efficacy in our trial among people who inject drugs as it has been in previous PrEP trials examining sexual transmission. These results underscore the importance of helping people using pre-exposure prophylaxis achieve effective levels of adherence.
In a related commentary, Salim Karim, a professor and director of the Center for the AIDS Programme of Research in South Africa at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, noted the reduction in HIV infections may not be specifically attributable to a protective effect of the antivirals on people who become infected through injecting drugs. Some injecting drug users engage in risky sexual behavior, such as selling sex to fund their drug habit, so the protective effect observed in the trial may be at least partially attributable to the established effects of PrEP on sexual transmission of HIV.
Even though questions remain about the extent to which PrEP can be effective in preventing either of the routes of transmission in this group, the overall result is that daily tenofovir does reduce HIV transmission in the injecting drug users.
The introduction of PrEP for HIV prevention in injecting drug users should be considered as an additional component to accompany other proven prevention strategies like needle exchange programs, methadone programs, promotion of safer sex and injecting practices, condoms and HIV counseling and testing.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Top Celebrity Health Topics of 2010
When someone famous goes public with a health concern, people come to WebMD looking for details on their disease.
It's not just that enquiring minds want to know about stars' lives. It's also a window on a condition they want to know more about.
Year in Health 2010
Bedbugs, health care reform, fatigue…which stories made the most impact in 2010?
No doubt about it: Our society is celebrity-obsessed. But sometimes, the health lessons that stem from them sharing their experiences could save your own life.
Here are the top celebrity health topics of 2010:
1. Michael Douglas' Throat Cancer
In September, actor Michael Douglas announced that he has throat cancer -- what doctors call oropharyngeal cancer. As Douglas pursued treatment, WebMD talked to experts about what symptoms are typical for oropharyngeal cancer, how the disease is treated, and what the prospects are for patients.
2. Phil Mickelson's Psoriatic Arthritis
Late this summer, just before the U.S. Open, pro golfer Phil Mickelson said that he is being treated for psoriatic arthritis. That's an autoimmune disease that affects the joints and tendons, and may also include psoriasis, an inflammatory skin disease. WebMD covered the symptoms, treatment, and possible effects on Mickelson's golf game.
3. Bill Clinton's Weight Loss and Heart Surgery
Former President Bill Clinton had surgery in February to get two stents placed in a coronary artery. Later, he whittled his weight in time to walk daughter Chelsea down the aisle when she married Marc Mezvinsky this summer. With his heart history, Clinton had more than vanity at stake.

Registered Nurses Wash Their Hands of Hospital Acquired Infection
Read About Hand Hygiene Technology Here
According to the CDC, 1 in every 20 U.S. patients contracts a Hospital-Acquired Infection each year—or, as it's known by healthcare officials—HAI. A serious problem in American healthcare facilities that range from surgical centers, ambulatory clinics, long-term care facilities and hospitals alike, HAIs cause an estimated 1.7 million infections each year and 99,000 fatalities.
Thankfully, hospitals are aware and employing high tech solutions to bring these numbers down. Companies like Biovigil have created monitoring systems that remind hospital staff to sanitize and chart high and low compliance areas.
How it works
The RN wears a badge linked to the hospital computer database; every time the nurse enters or exits a room, the badge blinks red, giving hospital staff approximately 40 seconds to sanitize their hands. Once that's done, the RN places hands close to the badge and rubbing alcohol is detected, giving them a green light to treat the patient. Non-compliance sounds an alarm. Everything is recorded electronically, with the eventual goal of raising hand hygiene compliance into the 90th percentiles. Some hospitals have already met this goal, dropping HAIs at Miami Children's Hospital by 66%.
Clinical Resource Manager, Debbie Bacurin, RN hopes that hand hygiene is taken seriously at every healthcare facility, saying:
"I just spent a lot of time in a hospital with a colleague – I was amazed with both the number of staff who always wash their hands and those who don't do it enough. As an RN, I know how hard it is to enforce strict hand hygiene, but I think computer technology could help hospital staff with something many, on their own initiative, are too busy to remember to do as often as they should."
American Traveler Staffs in Hospitals that Set New Precedents for Better Patient Outcomes
As a travel nurse at a Joint Commission certified healthcare staffing agency, chances are excellent that your RN job will be in a hospital that features successful hand hygiene technology and high compliance rates. To learn more about improving clinical outcomes for your patients, RNs are encouraged to check out this patient care link concerning HAIs, as well as the CDC's basics on hand washing. Healthcare staff may also want to read U.S. News & World Report rankings for best hospitals in the nation.
American Traveler places patient safety and satisfaction at the top of its priority list and encourages our healthcare staff to speak up about hand hygiene compliance in their nursing jobs. Leave a comment about (hand hygiene) compliance rates in your healthcare facility, or simply share this awareness article with your peers. With increased awareness, hands can only get cleaner!

ANDY GEORGE, Senior Tech Director and daughter AVA camped in high winds and cold nights last weekend with YMCA Adventure Guides in Aqua Caliente (near Anza-Borrego Desert east of San Diego). While majority of the 65 campers bailed Saturday, little Ava and Andy had one of the only tents standing the second night that became the kitchen and dining room safe from the wind. An off road trip to the Arroyo Tapiado Mud Caves made for awesome adventure hiking with headlamps though long dark hidden caves formed from mud flows!
