Kia Troubleshooting Questions? Ask a Mechanic
Hello JACUSTOMER, did something happen to the vehicle or are you just wondering what needs to be done if there is a problem?
Nothing happened to the vehicle (not yet anyway). I was just wondering what the procedures were for KIA emergency starts when the smart key fob dies. The key that is contained within the smart key fob ONLY opens the door---there is no ignition switch to place the key since it is a push button start.
Okay. Unfortunately they do not make a back up to get the vehicle started just to get it opened. You just need to pay close attention to the warning message that tells you when the battery is low.

Obama promises not to cut veterans programs
Published 4:00 am, Wednesday, August 31, 2011
Minneapolis --
President Obama pledged Tuesday that he would not allow cuts in programs for veterans as Congress and the administration look for ways to balance the budget.
In a somber speech to the annual convention of the American Legion that dwelled on the need to tackle unemployment among veterans, but offered little in the way of specifics about his overall economic proposals that are due next week, the president repeated his assertion of earlier this summer that after a decade of war, it was time to turn the country's attention to domestic prosperity.
"It's time to focus on nation-building here at home," Obama told 6,000 members of the country's largest veterans group, who clapped politely. Obama singled out the "9/11 generation veterans," who, he said, "have the skills and dedication to help lead the way."
He praised "all who have worn the uniform in these wars" and said it is time, now, for the government to help these veterans find a place at home.

He said he had directed the federal government to hire 100,000 more veterans. But at a time of restricted budgets, overall government employment is constrained.
"As a nation, we're facing some tough choices as we put our fiscal house in order, but I want to be clear," Obama said. "As a nation, we cannot, we must not, and we will not balance the budget on the backs of veterans."
By the end of the year, Congress and the administration must agree to significant cuts in the 10-year deficit, with spending cuts shared among domestic and security programs, or face severe automatic across-the-board cuts that would fall particularly hard on military programs.
Obama, meanwhile, has proposed a Returning Heroes Tax Credit for companies that hire unemployed veterans, and a Wounded Warrior Tax Credit for companies that hire unemployed veterans with a disability.
The administration has long championed employment for returning veterans; the unemployment rate among those who joined the military after Sept. 11, 2001, was 13.3 percent in June.
The president will attend ceremonies next month in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington - including a prayer service at the National Cathedral - for the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Why I give to the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation. 12 years ago my mom was diagnosed with a disease we had not heard of - Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis - a 100% fatal lung disease with no treatment and no cure. The PFF (www.pulmonaryfibrosis.org) is working every day to find a cure, while helping the PF community at the same time. In honor of my mom, Beverly Hart, and all those affected with PF, I give to the PFF to help with their mission because they care enough to go the extra mile for all affected by this killer disease. I don't stop at giving money. I also give of my time. I have become a PF Advocate for Patients and Families and operate multiple online support groups in Yahoo Groups and on Facebook. With my Breathe Support Network of Groups my goal is to ensure that patients, their families, and their friends do not have to walk the PF journey alone. PF is still widely unknown - even in the medical community. Mom and I walked alone for most of the 6 years she was alive after diagnosis. I vowed on the night she died that I would do everything I could to ensure others are not alone. I will continue my fight against PF and I will continue helping others until my last breath.
Review from #MyGivingStory
This group of folks is very supportive and informative. It has been a blessing to me. I have never met any of them. We share with one another and some folks have had that symptom and helps us with info. Most people, drs. Included haven't heard of PF or IPF. I was fortunate to get a very informed dr. He was recommended by the PFf from the group head. Dr. Ganesh Raghu at the University of WA. I was called the very next day. It can be scary if you don't have a good dr. The first one told me I had 2-3yrs. To live. I am in my 11th year.and.....planning for lots more!
I had the opportunity to learn about the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation from its outstanding Chief Operating Officer Patricia Tuomey. The organization serves many purposes including educating the public about this terrible disease, being a support system for those who suffer from it, and advocating for research grants and legislation. I am extremely impressed by the PFF staff and its commitment having worked with them on an organ donation project. The effort by volunteers and people who have pulmonary fibrosis to share their stories with the public is very moving. I would urge anyone who is looking at supporting a charitable organization that makes excellent use of their resources to strongly consider the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation. Their work is first-rate.
I began my journey with the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation as a caregiver and family member. We discovered the PFF after my father's battle with this horrible disease ended...but my experience and relationship with this fabulous Foundation was just beginning. Since his passing, I have helped to organize several awareness events and fundraisers...but most notably am proud of have worked with the PFF on their Annual Fundraiser. My husband and I are not millionaires, but we do what we can to support the mission of the PFF. We encourage our friends and family to do the same...and we see our hard-earned dollars going towards raising awareness, support, and ultimately a cure. We are proud to help the PFF in any way we can! And encourage so many others to do the same!
Hello from Sweden, I was diagnosed with IPF 9 years ago at the age of 44. I've spent many years struggling on my own - and was so happy when I came across PFF. It gives me a lot of inspiration , I follow every move you make on Facebook. It is a shame I didn't know about PFF last year or I would have come to the summit in chicago, but hopefully I will come to next years summit. Keep up the good work, regards from Stockholm.
I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis September 2009. It has been a real battle as it is for most of us! The support from the PFF and the people with this disease is unlike any support I have ever seen. Each individual is cared for. If one rejoices we all rejoice and if one mourns we all mourn. We are more than a foundation in my opinion . We are FAMILY! Family that truly cares and works hard to bring awareness and support to all we meet.You are never truly alone when you are in the midst of the members of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation! We laugh and we cry together. We call one another on the telephone send cards to one another and we pray for each other as well as a cure for Pulmonary Fibrosis. The PFF educates us and tells us of any new things we are not aware of. Many people work Very hard to do different jobs within the PFF but its for our common good and welfare! I do not know where I'd be today if it had not been for the support and kindness I have received. I know someone will always be there to help in any way they can and that I can count on these people to carenot just about the disease but for the person and all they go through! They have been a great encouragement for me! Thank you so much! Donna White
I was diagnosed in July and the PFF has been there from the beginning and have given me hope and great information. The people are loving and caring. I would recommend it to everyone.
It was ten days before Christmas when I had an open lung biopsy that brought the diagnosis of Pulmonary Fibrosis. Feeling alone and scared as I read the hits that came up when I Googled it, I felt a sense of reassurance when I found that there was a "Foundation" dedicated to this specific cause. Through them I've been able to connect through social media to a number of other people whose lives have been changed by this dreadful disease. It is heartbreaking when we lose one of our "family" members and we can't help but wonder if we're next. Knowing that the PFF will carry on in research and searching for a cure helps me sleep at night. I know that if my son or grandson should present with this, they'll have more options than I've had. I also believe my mother had been misdiagnosed when she died in 1974. Our symptoms were too eerily familiar. At least I got a correct diagnosis and have benefitted from supplemental oxygen, etc. I can't imagine how lonely and despondent I'd be if I hadn't come across this wonderful Foundation and touched base with the professionals and volunteers on their staff. May God Bless them mightily for their efforts and their commitment to excellence. ((Hugs))
I have been priviledged to have had the opportunity to provide HR Consulting support to the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation over the past two + years; before which I had never heard of this horrible disease. Exposure to this incredibly professional and dedicated group of individuals as they carry out their personal and organizational mission has been inspiring to say the least. The very genuine care and sensitivity they exude each and every day is remarkable. To a person, this is not a "job", but a passionate cause. I cannot imagine that such commitment will not produce incredible results and ultimately contribute to a cure.
23 years who suffered from Pulmonary Fibrosis. The foundation helped me see that i wasn't the only one in this world with this awful disease. thanks to them i met so many great people and lost so many. But not one second do i regret doing things for them. Photo shoot, going to the Summit and Annual Dinner. In july 12 i received my Double Lung Transplant and received so much love and support from people i have met through the foundation. Friends and Family. So much love i did a 3mile walk for Pulmonary Fibrosis. The foundation deserves all the love and support you can give. They try their hardest to find a cure,to help one another. they are just awesome!! Love them to heart and they are like my family. thanks to them i am full of love to others..

Matanza To Welcome Spring - Poem by Jimmy Santiago Baca
for Pat and Victorio
Spread eagle sheep legs wide,
wire hooves to shed beams,
and sink blade in neck wool,
'til the gray eyes drain of life
like cold pure water
from a tin pail.
(It kicked, choking on nasal blood,
liquid gasping coughs
spattered blood over me.)
Slit down belly, scalp rug-wool
skin away, pinch wool back
with blade to pink flesh, ssst ssst ssst
inch by inch, then I sling
whole carcass in bloody spray over fence.
(Close to its face, I swear
it gift-heaved a last breath
from its soft black nose
and warmed my nostril hairs
as I sniffed the dark smell
of its death.)
Mesquite in hole
boils water in the iron cauldron
which steam-cooks
hind quarters
on grill across cauldron.
Tonight I invite men and women
con duende,
who take a night in life
and forge it into iron
in the fire of their vision.
Aragon has gone
to the river to play his drum.
I hear the deep pom pom pom.
Round bonfire
Alicia squats, ruffles sheaf of poems,
while Alejandro tunes guitar.
Shadows dance round
stones that edge the fire.
(In Alejandro's boot
a knife hilt glimmers.)
Their teeth gleam grease juice
(as do those of the children, who play
in the dark behind us).
There is fear
in the horse's eye
corralled nearby.
(Hear the drum on the Río Grande.
Boom pom boom pom....)
Blood sizzles,
moist alfalfa in the air,
bats flit above the flames.
I toss a gleaming bone to spirits
in the orchard,
and Gonzales yells,
with his old earthen voice,
"Play, hombre, �Canta, mujer! Sing!
Sing the way the old ones sang!"
Tonight life is
hard work
and tomorrow I will go
to church.
But tonight
I leap into
impulse, instinct,
into the burning
this moment.
(I commit myself! One moment to the next
I am chasm jumper and silence is
a blue fire on my papery soul. I construct
out of nothing. I am air, am labyrinth,
place with no entry or exit,
am a smoking mirror.
Commit myself! Storms stroke my heart
and destroy its neat furrows.
My words are mule teams,
that loosen, pound, hurl, out and up,
and leave me standing in the open, naked,
with star flame roar, life opening. . . .
Commit myself!)
Hear the two hands
bleed along the river beating
deep sounds of thu-uba,
of magic, despair, joy,
emotions trance-weave through sound,
thumba, thumba, thumba.
Follow drum,
thumba thumba thumba,
umba umba umba
ba-ba ba-ba
thumba thumba thumba,
hear hearts mate with earth
in song,
spiral toward death
in its long thuuumbaa,
toward life again
in ba-ba ba-ba.
The sound is stain on purity,
is cry of broken thing,
drum does not wither beneath bed,
but rises heart
into newness around us,
all around us,
come follow Follow the drum,
thumba thumba thumba
thumba thumba thumba
of living!

The R 'n' B group have just premiered a new music video for their latest single taken from their upcoming record "80's Babies" via their MySpace page
R 'n' B group Pretty Ricky doen't waste anytime to promote their new album "80's Babies". After premiering the video for their first single "Cuddle Up" in June, now the group have already launched another clip for "Knockin' Boots 08" via their official MySpace page today (July 15).
The new clip doesn't have a lot of feature as it only showed the group members singing and doing some sexy moves. It seems that the R 'n' B act dedicated their new video for their female fans by revealing lots of footages of their muscular bodies on it.
However, it is still not clear whether the new song is the official second single for Pretty Ricky's new LP or not. Meanwhile, other songs that have been confirmed to be included on "80's Babies" beside "Cuddle Up" and "Knockin' Boots 08" are "Sweet Candy", "Down On My Knees" and "4 Play".
Their new album itself, according to their MySpace page is being scheduled to hit the shelves on September 23. The new record will be Pretty Ricky's third outing after dropping "Bluestars" in 2005 and "Late Night Special" in 2007.

In m0n0 you don't have to explicitly set the default gateway. There
isn't a way to "set" the default gateway on the DHCP lease, because it
will just be set to point to m0n0's interface IP address.
You would be able to move the machiense between the subnets seamlessly
by setting DHCP on those interfaces that you would like to move
between. As your machine connects to another interface, it will pick
up the new lease and use the new gateway.

|[en] Yeast is a widely used microorganism at the industrial level because of its biomass and metabolite production capabilities. However, due to its sensitivity to the glucose effect, problems occur during scale-up to the industrial scale. Hydrodynamic conditions are not ideal in large-scale bioreactors, and glucose concentration gradients can arise when these bioreactors are operating in fed-batch mode. We have studied the effects of such gradients in a scale-down reactor, which consists of a mixed part linked to a non-mixed part by a recirculation pump, in order to mimic the hydrodynamic conditions encountered at the large scale. During the fermentation tests in the scale-down reactor, there was a drop in both biomass yield (ratio between the biomass produced and the glucose added) and trehalose production and an increase in both fermentation time (time between inoculation and beginning of stationary phase) and ethanol production. We have developed a stochastic model which explains these effects as the result of an induction process determined mainly by the hydrodynamic conditions. The concentration profiles experienced by the microorganisms during the scale-down tests were expressed and linked to the biomass yields of the scale-down tests.

Goal: Stop the religious exemptions of contraceptive services in the Affordable Care Act.The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is being pressured by religious institutions to include an expanded exemption under the Affordable Care Act, in order to deny contraceptive services to their employees. This would be a disservice to women who work for these institutions.
Under the Affordable Care Act, the Department of Health and Human Services stipulated that as part of women's preventive health services, insurance companies would be required to provide contraceptive services and counseling to women without co-payments or deductibles.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has demanded that the exemption for religious institutions be widened and that the coverage of contraceptive services be removed entirely. The USCCB and its religious allies, notorious for their anti-reproductive freedom rhetoric, pose a real threat to women's access to affordable birth control through the Affordable Care Act.
Employees should not be deprived of access to birth control or other contraceptive services and counseling simply because of their employers' religion. Affordable access to contraception, furthers women's economic and educational opportunities, and should not be subject to employers' opinion on the subject.
Please sign the petition below to urge the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to allow no exemptions to religious institutions, and to permit the coverage for contraceptive services and counseling to all women under the Affordable Care Act.
I urge you to block the religious exemptions of insurance coverage of contraceptive services in the Affordable Care Act. This is not simply a Women's Reproductive Right issue, but also a Worker's Right one, and a basic tenet of the separation of Church and State. No employer should deny basic preventive health coverage to its employees, based on their religion. If allowed to pass, the many women who work for Catholic institutions, regardless of their religious persuasion, will be unfairly disadvantaged.
Contraception, a basic preventive health measure, should not be placed in the hands of a fringe minority. Allowing religious institutions to prevent women from basic preventive health care is preposterous and the federal government has no place in allowing any religion to meddle in its policies. I hope that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recognizes the importance of allowing access to affordable contraceptive services and counseling under the Affordable Care Act, and blocks the religious exemptions.

Marriage Roles Argumentative Essay by Quality Writers
Marriage Roles
This paper discusses traditional versus non-traditional roles in marriage.

In this article, the writer discusses that traditional roles in marriage have been considered by some to be the foundation of American society. The writer points out that marriages between men and women have been accepted and expected since the country was founded and the gender roles that have been played in these relationships remained generally unchanged until the last few decades. The writer then notes that within the country people now argue about whether or not traditional roles in marriage are superior to non-traditional roles. The writer maintains that what is apparent is that there is an attempt being made to control how people live and who they will ultimately marry. The writer discusses that the struggle for control over people can be correlated to the control over women that has existed in traditional marriages throughout history. Traditional roles are no longer about happiness as much as they are about one partner dominating another. However, in non-traditional marriages individuals are discovering that they have the ability to build a life that is based on their mutual goals and these people are genuinely happy. The writer argues that since happiness would appear to be the primary reason for people to get married, it is evident that non-traditional roles are more preferential than traditional roles when it comes to marriage.
From the Paper:"With the rise of industrialization and urbanization traditional gender roles in marriage were established for many years. Traditional gender roles in marriage have focused on the woman being the primary caregiver and the man being the breadwinner. For women this meant that they were tasked with maintaining every aspect of the home, to include the upkeep of the residence, ensuring that the bills were paid, preparing the meals and cleaning. These roles also tasked the women with the responsibility of caring for children and ensuring that their educational needs were met. It further meant that the woman was responsible for attending to all of her husband's needs and providing a home in which he could be happy. For men the traditional role in marriage related more to employment and the ability to provide a sufficient income. While males were expected to fulfill a role as father and husband, these duties were expected to occur when the male had excess time away from his job."

A birthday to remember
December 26, 2012
Residents and staff of Eskaton Village would like to thank Empire Carriage Company for providing a very special gift to one of our residents.
When they heard that our resident was celebrating her 104th birthday, Kim Woodward and friends very graciously offered to give her a gift that she later said was "worth waiting 104 years for." A memorable carriage ride through the village, and an opportunity to get up close and personal with the horses, was enjoyed by the celebrant and her friends.
Empire Carriage Company is a great example of how local businesses give back to our community.

Fernando Alonso bounced back from a collision with team-mate Felipe Massa to triumph in the ice kart race at Ferrari's Wrooom event at Madonna di Campiglio on Friday.
The Spaniard had qualified second behind poleman Massa in the annual event, in which Ferrari Formula 1 racers and test drivers compete against Ducati MotoGP riders on a frozen lake.
Alonso's hopes of victory appeared over on lap two when he was spun around after a clash with Massa as they fought for the lead.
But Alonso staged a brilliant recovery - helped by a number of incidents ahead, including Massa spinning - and took victory on the last lap from MotoGP rider Andrea Dovizioso.
In the second heat, which featured a reverse grid, Alonso charged through from the back to hit the front with a decisive move past early leader Nicky Hayden.
Alonso's two victories secured him the maximum 50 points in the final classification, ahead of Giancarlo Fisichella and Massa.

Gainesville City Schools Superintendent Merrianne Dyer is asking teachers to be proactive in embracing pending legislative changes.
It took a few last-minute deals, but the Georgia House of Representatives approved a $17.8 billion spending plan Thursday for the upcoming fiscal year.
Supporters of a bill before the Georgia legislature that would require that driver's license exams be given only in English say the measure would improve public safety. Opponents say it discriminates against legal immigrants.
An estimated $100,000 in designer clothing, expensive handbags and cell phones has been taken over the last few years in a series of smash-and-grab break-ins at North Georgia Premium Outlets.
A local pioneer for emergency medical services was honored posthumously Thursday with resolutions from the Georgia House of Representatives and Senate.
A backyard chicken coop might have been the norm 50 years ago, but it hasn't been legal for quite some time in Gainesville's city limits.
The state House of Representatives has unanimously backed a local legislator's proposal to require local governments to notify property owners annually of their property tax assessments.
A proposal for a 1.4 percent tax on Northeast Georgia Health Systems' revenues is better than the alternatives, the hospital's president said.
A Northeast Georgia lawmaker who proposes a change in the law that would allow for road racing events on public streets believes some people are getting the wrong idea.
The Hall County Animal Shelter already is taking all the measures that state representatives called for last week to protect animals and their owners.
The next step in the use of technology in the voting process is making its way through the state legislature.
A bill protecting people with workers' compensation claims against insolvent insurance companies is making its way through the state Capitol.
Hopes for a $1 tax on cigarettes may be snuffed by lawmakers who aren't looking to spark controversy with a new tax.
Gov. Sonny Perdue's proposal to cut state funds by more than 10 percent for hospitals serving Medicaid patients could cost Northeast Georgia Health System more than $5 million, according to a source with the hospital.
Local students joined those from across the state Monday at the Capitol to rally against budget cuts to the University System of Georgia.

* Canadian dollar at C$1.0952, or 91.31 U.S. cents * Bond prices mostly lower across the maturity curve By Leah Schnurr TORONTO, Aug 21 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar firmed against the greenback on Thursday, rebounding after a nearly 1 percent drop over the last two days, ahead of some key domestic economic data due at the end of the week. Concerns about the prospects for global growth hit the loonie overnight after data showed business growth in China and Europe slowed in August. The worries took the Canadian dollar to a nearly two-week low in earlier trading before it was able to claw back some gains. Investors were turning their attention toward Canadian inflation and retail sales reports that will be released on Friday. With a quiet economic calendar at home, the reports will be the main domestic events of the week. Although the loonie has made some sizeable intraday moves in recent weeks, it has largely stayed within a trading range. Analysts expect the ongoing favor for the U.S. dollar as the economy south of the border picks up to continue to weigh on the loonie, which could test the C$1.10 resistance level before long. "The overall theme for the Canadian dollar this morning is a bit of a breather from yesterday's selloff," said Scott Smith, senior market analyst at Cambridge Mercantile Group in Calgary. "The U.S. dollar has rallied pretty strongly over the last three to four sessions, so I think we're seeing a bit of a breather and a little bit of position-squaring ahead of a big risk day tomorrow." The Canadian dollar was at C$1.0952 to the greenback, or 91.31 U.S. cents, stronger than Wednesday's close of C$1.0971, or 91.15 U.S. cents. Investors were also focused on the start of the annual gathering of economists and policymakers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, later on Thursday. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen is scheduled to speak on Friday. Canadian government bond prices were mostly lower across the maturity curve, though the two-year was unchanged to yield 1.092 percent. The benchmark 10-year was down 6 Canadian cents to yield 2.107 percent.

The Human Rights Commission will start work soon on its second attempt to clearly define what the term tino rangatiratanga means in today's society.
Treaty kaiwhakarite Bill Hamilton says because the term has been used quite loosely since the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840, it's important to pin down what the current understanding is.
He says a survey late last year of 1700 people and organisations was less than successful.
Mr Hamilton says most of those who responded didn't explain what tino rangatiratanga means for them.
He says when the Treaty was signed, tino rangatiratanga was all about hapu, but over the years that's changed.
Mr Hamilton says it's important to get an accurate understanding of today's thinking, because the term now manifests itself in a many ways.
He says he's revamped the questions in last year's survey, and plans to start work soon on a more focused approach to finding out what tino rangatiratanga means today for both Maori and Pakeha.

2013 X5 50i in Production!
Hey Guys,
Been following this forum for sometime ever since we decided to purchase a new X5. It has been an invaluable resource through this entire process! All of you that contribute to the gain and transfer of knowledge and experience should be commended!
Well, heard today that she just went into production! Here are the details.
2013 X5 50i
Deep Sea Blue
Black Nevada (for the kids... 3 year old and 9 year old...nuff said)
Sport Activity Package
- Multi-Contour Seats
- Adaptive Drive
Premium Sound
Premium Package 2
Multi-Contour seats
Toughest part was figuring out if I really NEEDED adaptive drive. Well...I NEED it.
Some notes:
Wheels: I would have loved to go with the 20" wheels (style 336 I think) but with trips to the snow the 19s out of the sport package seemed more practical at the moment.
3rd row seating: The 3rd row seat...yes..if it were up to me I would have NOT added it but the wife does a lot of car pooling with kids (age 4-9) so it was a must.
No cajoling from me could change her mind. Since she is the primary driver...she wins.
Adaptive Drive: I did a ton of research on this. Everything from board member opinions to how the system works to driving one vs. one without. For me, I love the sportiness of the X5 with adaptive drive. It isn't for everyone but for me, it really changed the attitude of the car. Midnight ice cream runs are going to have me and my wife fighting for the keys! Before it was a rock paper scissors thing...
Technology Package: Just wasn't worth it to us. The HUD is nice but for whatever reason, with sunglasses we were using (not sure if they were polarized) you could barely make it out. Changing the settings on the idrive to high didn't help. As soon as you put sunglasses on the HUD was washed out. Night time driving I'm sure would be useful. We nixed it. Money went to the dang 3rd row seating...lol
50i vs 35i vs Diesel:
For us, the 50i was hands down the best. No offfense to the other power plants as they are ALL sexy sweet but something about that V8 just stole the show. Torque, power, sound...in my opinion, worth the extra cash if it is within your budget. If budget is not there...there is no disappointment with the 35i or the diesel. They are both awesome engines.
So here we sit!
Rest assured...obligatory cold start video and pics WILL BE INCOMING once we get her home!
