2003 Volkswagen Golf Questions
Get answers to questions about your 2003 Volkswagen Golf at RepairPal. Find solutions, diagnose problems and get back on the road.Refine by vehicle
when I tried to start it to go to work several hours later, it wouldn't start. This has happened in the past, but starts after sitting overnight.
I replaced the ECU from a donor car. It was a wreck.. Now I have an air bag light on the instrument cluster. I could take the cluster out (again) and put tape or paint over the LED, but wondered if there was a way to switch it off..
What would the likely cause be? I have tested voltage (gets 5 volts). I thought it was supposed to receive 12, but when I supply it with 12, I get a different code indicating voltage too high. Disconnected that wire and we're back to the original P0030 code. What should I check next?
OK, I went to Pick N Pull and snagged a brain box and MAF sensor from an 04 Golf. Now it starts and stops right away.
I see a light on the dash that depicts a car in profile with a key running along the running board. Is this a security issue related the ECM swap?
Common causes for ABS light illumination?
I am hearing an air noise under the dash booster. (brake booster )..... Moving the silencer (foam seal) may reduce noise level. Might fix in this way?
Whenever it is plugged in to a code reader it just says no communications
It sounds like the engine struggles between 3000 and 4000 RPM when on the highway at about 60-75 mph. The problem does not occur until I am on the highway. It almost seems like I run out of gear and my car wont shift again to a higher gear. The steering wheel also shakes at this speed but I believe that is because I need an alignment. Are all of these connected? or what can it be?
-On the D position the car remains with the second gear all the time; it never shifts up or down as required, except for R.
Well it leaks.
Any idea how much this will cost to fix ?
I recently purchased my 2003 VW Golf and a few weeks ago changed the oil after noticing it was time to do so (I did it myself). I used the proper oil and such, but now the oil indicator light keeps coming on, usually 10 minutes into my drive, flashes and beeps, but never stays on (just flashing). Is this a malfunction in the car computer or is there something wrong with my oil (I rechecked it, clear, full and fine). Thanx
wondering if the engine would be damaged by making this change now on an 03 model.....

Software Download (Page 1)
You will be able to download Rudy Rucker's alife programs by entering our site through ftp: anonymous...
There are eight files for ftp downloading. All are compressed using the PKZIP utility, and must be uncompressed by using PKUNZIP. The files with "EXE" in their names include an executable DOS graphics program with support files. These programs should run on any DOS machine with VGA graphics.
The files with "SRC" in their names include source code for the corresponding "EXE" programs. If you are not interested in programming, then you may not want to bother downloading the source code. With the exception of Spiro, the source is in each case complete, and was in fact used to build the corresponding "EXE" program.
The compiler used was Borland C++ 4.0. If you know programming, then you may be able to use the source code to build an executable for a different platform, e.g. Mac, Unix, Windows, etc. (If you manage to do this, let Switch know!) All of these files are provided "as is," with no guarantees. Rudy Rucker does not undertake to provide any technical support whatsoever. The files are provided on a shareware basis. This means that you can freely copy them, but that you cannot use them for any commercial purpose without having a written agreement with Rudy Rucker. All the files are Copyright (C) 1994 Rudy Rucker.
About downloading with ftp. [Put info here]
About Using The Source Code The source code for the programs is for building a DOS application on a DOS machine. The source code for the Spiro program is in Turbo Pascal, and the source code for Vine, Calife, and Julgnarl is Borland C++. As I don't currently have a Pascal compiler, I was unable to test if the Spiro source code still compiles correctly. (Sometimes, with old source-code the mysterious process of "bit-rot" sets in!) I did recently recompile the source code for Vine, Julgnarl, and Calife, using Borland C++ 4.0. If you have this particular compiler, you need only start it up in Windows, load the relevant project file, and select Make.
Note that the Borland C++ 4.0 project files have the *.IDE file extension, although *.PRJ project files can also be used. (I provide CALIFE.PRJ but not CALIFE.IDE.) These three programs can also be compiled with the less expensive Borland compiler known as Turbo C++. This compiler can't use the *.IDE project files, instead it uses *.PRJ project files. I provide a VINE.PRJ file, but you would need to make your own JULGNARL.PRJ. Your project files should include all of the *.OBJ and *.CPP files that are in the relevant ????1SRC.ZIP file. Your project file should also include the Borland Graphics library GRAPHICS.LIB (or you can adjust a Turbo C++ menu-setting to link in this library automatically). Use the LARGE model type for JULGNARL and the SMALL model type for CALIFE and for VINE.
If you wish to use a different compiler, you will need to check your compiler manual for the names of the graphics functions analogous to such Borland Graphics functions as putpixel(); also you will not want to link in the special Borland module EGAVGA.OBJ. It may also be that the randomizing functions of your other compiler have different names from the names used by Borland. It is fairly easy to port any of these programs to a windows-based operating system such as Windows, Macintosh, or X-Windows. First you have to find the appropriate names for the memory allocation functions, the randomizing functions and the handful of graphics functions. And then you need a top-level widowed program that executes a step of the target program loop whenever there's no messages on the queue.

Clustering with server nodes on the same machine
Recommended by 0 users
Clustering with server nodes on the same machine
The second variant of the standalone configuration comes into picture when your server nodes are located (all or some of them) on the same machine. This scenario applies generally when you are scaling up your architecture by adding more hardware resources to your system.
Configuring server nodes on the same machine obviously requires duplicating your AS7 distribution on your filesystem. Then, in order to avoid a port conflict between server distributions, you have to choose between two options:
1. Defining multiple IP address on the same machine.
2. Defining a port offset for each server distribution.
This is also known as multihoming and requires some O/S tweaks to get working. Obviously, each operating system uses different approaches to achieve it, which may also vary depending on its version. Being out of the scope of this book to illustrate all possible ways to configure multihoming, we will just show two common scenarios.
When using a Linux box, just issue an ifconfig command to activate each IP address:
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.10.1 up
# ifconfig eth1 192.168.10.2 up
When using a Windows machine, you have to reach, from the network configuration panel, to your Ethernet card's TCP-IP properties. Once there, click on the Advanced button and add all addresses that will be part of the cluster:
Once you have set up your network interface correctly, it's time to update your standalone-ha.xml file. Follow the same steps exposed for multiple host cluster (for each server distribution, reach to the interfaces section, and within the nested interface element insert the IP address of the standalone server).
In the end, the first server distribution will be bound to the IP Address 192.168.10.1 and the second one to 192.168.10.2. (as an alternative, use the –b and –bmanagement switches exposed in the earlier section). The following diagram depicts this scenario:
Configuring multihoming is not always a viable choice because it requires some degree of administration experience or maybe because you are lacking in permissions on your machine, in which case, you could still set up a clustering configuration by defining a port offset for your each cluster member.
By defining a port offset for each server, the entire default server binding interfaces will shift to a fixed amount, and hence you will not have two servers engaging the same IP address and the same port.
When using this configuration, you can bind each server network address to the same IP address. So, for all your server distributions, we will configure the standalone-
ha.xml as follows:
<interface name="management">
<inet-address value="192.168.10.1″/>
<interface name="public">
<inet-address value="192.168.10.1″/>
Then, the first server will use the default socket binding ports:
<!–server 1 UNCHANGED –>
<socket-binding-group name="standard-sockets" defaultinterface="
. . . . . .
While the second one will specify a port-offset element of 150:
<!–server 2 –>
<socket-binding-group name="standard-sockets" defaultinterface="
public" port-offset="150″>
. . . . . .
Also, in order to avoid port conflicts, you have to choose a different port for the management interfaces. Again, we will leave the default values for the first server:
<!–server 1 UNCHANGED –>
<socket-binding-group name="standard-sockets" defaultinterface="
public" >
. . . . . . .
<socket-binding name="management-native"
interface="management" port="9999″/>
<socket-binding name="management-http" interface="management"
. . . . . . .
On the second server distribution, we will engage a different port:
<!–server 2 –>
<socket-binding-group name="standard-sockets" defaultinterface="
public" port-offset="150″>
. . . . . . .
<socket-binding name="management-native"
interface="management" port="19999″/>
<socket-binding name="management-http" interface="management"
. . . . . . .
Your cluster configuration is complete. Verify it by starting each server distribution by passing it as an argument to the configuration file.
standalone.bat –server-config=standalone-ha.xml

Business Law
Ask a Business Lawyer. Get Business Law Questions Answered ASAP.
What you requested should be doable. The plan has to be reviewed to be sure it is permitted. However, if it is not permitted, the plan can be modified to permit it by the Company. This is not uncommon and to the extent ERISA is an issue, it should be eassly dealt with. The worst case from the employer's perspective is that they make two years of contributions and treat you as attaining age 65. That allows you to take immediate retirement and is much less costly to them than unemployment costs. It also means a more highly compensated employee leaves and a less expensive one retained. They can do it for employees who are close to retirement age. It will also reduce the number of other layoffs they have to make.
If this answer is responsive to your question, please accept it. That is how we are compensated. I would also be appreciated if you provided feed back on your view of the answer.

Fix DNS Problems
A Domain Name System (DNS) allows a site IP address (192.168.x.x) to be identified with words (*.com) in order to be remembered more easily, like a phonebook for websites. This service is usually provided by your ISP.
Clear your local DNS cache to make sure that you grab the most recent cache that your ISP has. For Windows - (Start > Command Prompt > type "ipconfig /flushdns" and hit enter). For details choose your operating system :
If you can access a website at office or from a 3G network yet it's not working on your computer, it is a good idea to use an alternative DNS service other than your ISPs. OpenDNS or Google Public DNS are both excellent and free public DNS services.

''Old-fashioned'' is not an expression anyone in the superchic, see-you-later-Charlie world of fashion magazines would think of applying to Dennis Freedman, the creative director of W, who turned an aging uptown broadsheet into a visually exciting barometer of the here and now.
But old-fashioned is what Mr. Freedman is, and one need only picture him in his offices, at 7 West 34th Street, to understand what this means. In the first place, he is wearing jeans with a rumpled khaki sport coat and brown side-buckle oxfords, and he has on the sort of patio-style red checkered shirt you'd expect to see on Eddie Haskell as he comes chuckling across the lawn to greet Wally and the Beav.
Second, he is at his desk in the vast third-floor newsroom that W shares with its sister publication, Women's Wear Daily. There is a private office behind him that he can duck into for meetings or just to eat a sandwich, but generally, in the longstanding tradition of his boss, Patrick McCarthy, and their mentor, John Fairchild, the retired chairman of Fairchild Publications, Mr. Freedman likes to sit out among the reporters.
''He isn't an isolated person,'' Joe McKenna, a freelance stylist who works for W and is involved in next month's reintroduction of the men's magazine Details, where Mr. Freedman is also creative director. ''He's sitting there in front of all those people, and he's up and walking around and talking to everyone. I think that environment very much reflects Dennis's character.''
It's also telling that both the photographer Bruce Weber and the editor Polly Mellen, who are themselves old school, say that Mr. Freedman's open approach -- in particular his ability to recognize the brilliance of an idea even when it's offered in the flakiest terms -- reminds them of the collaborative atmosphere created by Alexey Brodovitch at Harper's Bazaar in the 1940's, and by his successors in the magazine's art department, Marvin Israel, Bea Feitler and Ruth Ansel.Continue reading the main story
''You've got to understand,'' Mr. Weber said last week, ''in this business, most editors and creative directors say no to everybody. Dennis doesn't.'' As a result, the editorial well of W has emerged as an important -- maybe the most important -- creative showcase for photography among American fashion magazines. Fabien Baron, a former creative director of Harper's Bazaar whose cinematic portraits of writhing models appear in the current issue of W, said: ''In Europe it's Italian Vogue and in America it's W -- and I would add Vogue, because it's still the pinnacle of American fashion. But that's it.''
In Mr. McCarthy's view, a turning point came three years ago when W ran a series of pictures Mr. Weber took of Kate Moss, Marianne Faithfull and Stella McCartney. Of course, agreeing to publish Bruce Weber's photographs hardly involves mental lifting. What's interesting -- and this says a lot about why many fashion magazines don't work today -- is that Mr. Freedman didn't hesitate when Mr. Weber presented him with the idea, which was along the lines of ''Let's bring a bunch of English girls together and shoot them.''
As Mr. Weber said of this spontaneous, seemingly chaotic approach: ''Dennis doesn't call you up and say he has a job for you. He calls you up and says, 'Have you ever thought about going to Philadelphia?' ''
So here is Mr. Freedman, who is 48, with his patio-red checks and easygoing way, and the question that keeps popping up is how: how did this successful commercial magazine (fifth in ad pages behind In Style, Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Elle, with a circulation of 475,000) manage to become a hotbed of great photography while remaining, in its editorial formula of Hollywood and jet-set trivia, fundamentally the squarest of publications? (''Oh, completely,'' agreed the London-based photographer Juergen Teller, who regards W as his primary American outlet. ''It's like, Hello.'')
The answer, of course, is somehow wrapped up in Mr. Freedman's personality -- and the journalistic ethos of Fairchild. ''Patrick is very decisive,'' Mr. Freedman said, referring to Mr. McCarthy, W's editorial director. ''He doesn't have a long attention span. It's just, 'Let's do it.' And there's trust, an amazing amount of trust.''
Mr. Freedman, who grew up in Harrisburg, Pa., and did a little of this and that before going to Fairchild in the 1980's as a graphic designer, is one of those busy people who like to give the impression, to borrow a phrase from J. D. Salinger, of never dropping anything for a ringing phone. He seems to have all the time in the world. Last Tuesday, for instance, he was up at the Details office, on Madison Avenue, going over some ideas with an assistant for a design column. Mr. Freedman wants design and architecture to be strong elements in Details.
He liked some photos of a couple of prototypes -- a condom dispenser, an electric guitar -- but passed on BMW's new motorcycle. ''GQ is going to run that motorcycle, believe me,'' he said. ''As great as it is, it's kind of lazy and boring.'' In between, he took a call from the photographer Philip-Lorca di Corcia. ''I just saw the pictures,'' Mr. Freedman told him. ''Wow!''
The next day, when the photographer Paul Jasmin dropped by with galleys of his new book, Mr. Freedman spent more than an hour chatting with him. That evening, Mr. Freedman met with the photographer Steven Klein, and on Thursday morning stopped by Michael Thompson's studio, where Stephanie Seymour was posing for the September cover of W. The previous week, he had been in Seattle on a photo shoot. From there he flew to Paris to oversee photography of the haute couture, then to Philadelphia to see Mr. Weber. That evening, he flew to Sicily, where Mr. Thompson was photographing the actor Joseph Fiennes.
No other creative director spends this kind of time with photographers, and it's why Mr. Freedman has been successful getting some of the best talent, including Craig McDean and Martin Parr (who is going around the world for Details doing self-portraits in eight shirts Mr. Freedman gave him). ''There are so many talented people out there, but they can't do anything if someone puts the lid on,'' said Ms. Mellen, who went to El Salvador on a shoot with Mr. Freedman. ''He pulled out of me moments when I said: 'No kidding, Dennis? You can really publish this?' ''
Mr. Freedman seems to sense that the freedom he has is rare in the magazine world, but the troubles that photographers often speak about -- the fear and second-guessing by editors that so often seem to choke the creative process and produce few shining moments -- don't greatly interest him. He can't imagine, he said, telling a photographer like Mr. Weber or Mr. McDean how to shoot something. ''It would be like telling John Updike to write long, winding sentences but make sure they're happy ones,'' he said. When Mr. di Corcia expressed a vague idea about going to Havana, Mr. Freedman said his response was, ''Great -- let's go.''
At one point last week he happened to remark that his least favorite words are ''modern'' and ''edgy.'' Which is somewhat funny coming from someone who has pushed the boundaries of not only what is interesting in fashion photography but also what is important to say about today's culture. The fact that W freely publishes images that don't emphasize or even show clothes is partly what sets the magazine apart. As he spoke, Mr. Freedman brought out some images taken by Mr. di Corcia for the September issue that explored voyeurism in a distinctly Park Avenue setting.
But as Mr. Freedman knows, his approach is not novel. It is, indeed, an old-fashioned one, going back to the early days of Vogue and Bazaar. It's just that he now makes the pursuit of good work seem so uncomplicated.Continue reading the main story

The Best Karaoke CD on the market todayThursday, August 22nd 2013.
I never really like to write articles about the anything which claims to be 'the best' in any particular market. It is such a subjective term that it more often than not, won't apply to the person who's reading the review. In order to side step this little problem, I have based my decision on what is statistically the best karaoke CD on the market, by simply evaluating the bestselling one. The bestselling karaoke disc is currently the 100 Hits Presents – Karaoke Girls Night Box Set. This product has consistently topped the karaoke charts for several consecutive weeks now and doesn't look like it's going anywhere any time soon. Part of this sets allure has to go to its price tag, not many products on the market offer 100 karaoke tracks for just under £6s. Having said that a few of the manufacturer's other box sets include an equally impressive number of tracks and they still haven't been as successful as their Girls Night edition. The whole collection of 100 songs spans 5 CDs, which works out at 20 tracks on a disc. One has to concede that part of this Karaoke collections success has to me down to the quality of the tunes it provides. Some of the most well known tracks in this collection include; Single Ladies, Umbrella, I kissed a Girl, Don't Cha, Dancing Queen, I Will Survive, Toxic, Maneater, Fever and Beautiful Liar. Anyone has to admit that that's a pretty impressive collection of both modern and classic hits; it's actually rather astounding that it's being sold for such a bargain price. As I mentioned at the beginning of this article, just because it's statistically currently the best karaoke CD on the market today, doesn't make it everyone's cup of tea. I really doubt you'll get many families's having singing along to this collection, I think it really is just for a girlienight in.

|Karthik ton lifts TN, Kulkarni bags five
Saturday, March 27 2004 14:52 Hrs (IST)
Mumbai's task was made easy by some inept batting by the home batsmen, who failed to apply themselves on an easy track after electing to bat. At close, medium pacer M R Srinivas (2) was batting with Karthik, who had scored 122 in the first innings against Railways in the semi-finals.
Besides Karthik, S Sriram (51) was the other batsman to sparkle before getting out playing a reverse sweep.
Mumbai skipper Sairaj Bahutule persisted with a double spin attack in the form of himself and Kulkarni for the better part of the day and claimed three wickets for 74 runs off 26 overs. Wasim Jaffer, deployed in the slips, took five catches.
Eighteen-year-old wicketkeeper batsman Karthik, who came in at No 7 with Tamil Nadu's total reading 123 for five, added 84 runs with S Sharath for the sixth-wicket. But Bahutule triggered off a mini-collapse, striking thrice in the space of nine overs, to leave the hosts reeling at 227 for eight.
Karthik, who played an attacking game, hit the bowlers all around the ground as he raced to his century, off only 120 balls, with the help of a huge six off Kulkarni. His knock included 16 fours, four of which came in a single over from Avishkar Salvi.

A design competition was the first step towards the creation of an
iconic expansion of the outdated, overcrowded facility that housed the
Dean McGee Eye Institute - one of the leading eye institutes in the
United States. DMEI sought a design that would complement their
1970s-era building and express the groundbreaking research taking place
within its walls. The Institute provides services for over 150,000
patients each year. An expansion would have to be accomplished while
maintaining operations throughout construction.
ADG was selected to work with administrators on the phased design
construction project. A compact site and limited options for expansion
drove the design solution.
The 78,500-square-foot expansion enlivens DMEI's original building while
doubling laboratory and clinical space in the facility. The building
includes an iconic four-story glass atrium with a blue fritted glass
sunshade. The composition juxtaposes powerful rectilinear forms against
sweeping curves and colorful masses of texture and light. A new
clinical/research building seemingly collides with the original at the
central atrium lobby to create a visual pinch point, drawing visitors to
reception and creating a dynamic hub that organizes movement throughout
the entire "married" building.
Window and structural rhythms emulate the style of the original. An
angled, charcoal brick wall dominates the northern face, focusing
attention to the main entry while visually paying homage to the color
and proportions of the original's smoke-colored curtain wall and
geometric grid. The circular atrium softens the original's Brutalist
form and introduces reflective qualities through the use of clear
anodized aluminum fins.
In the open, four-story lobby interior finishes blend with the
original's concrete and brick exterior. Wooden beams overhead and
patterned flooring underfoot splay out from the circular reception area
to symbolize the rods and cones of the human eye. Curved bridges and
glass-fronted elevators in the atrium provide a visual frame of
reference to simplify wayfinding throughout.
The structural system is comprised of two systems: poured-in-place
concrete for new research and clinical space, and a steel system for the
open atrium. There were inherent challenges selecting the appropriate
mechanical system due to the dual functions of the building. While the
clinics use recirculated return air, the laboratories require 100%
outside air and vent hoods for air extraction. The overall mechanical
system ties into the central plant on the University of Oklahoma's
academic medical center campus.
The $26 million expansion also includes a two-level, 378-space parking
structure and a renovation of the original 70,000-square-foot institute.
Neither phase is included in the provided construction data.
The true success of this project lies with creating state-of-the-art
facilities that expand upon the high quality of research and patient
care, while enabling the institute to attract top talent in researchers
and physicians. The iconic design visually expresses the sophisticated
research being performed inside the building.
A busy, compact site with a high tech healthcare facility that needed to
maintain full operations throughout the entire construction process made
for a challenging project. Problems were identified and solved through
frequent, open communication and great teamwork.

Michael Gough Died
March 17, 2011 by Post Team
Michael Gough Died, Gotham City has lost one of its own today. Legions of "Batman" fans are mourning the loss of British actor Michael Gough, who played the caped crusader of the man emblematic of right / butler Alfred Pennyworth in several film adaptations of comics.
Thursday (March 17), Gough, who appeared alongside Michael Keaton in 1989 original "Batman," has died at the age of. The cause of his death has not yet been reported.
In addition to playing Alfred (a role that was later echoed by Michael Caine) in 1992 "Batman Returns", 1995 "Batman Forever" and 1997 "Batman & Robin," the BAFTA Award-winning actor is also appeared in both the Celestial Toymaker and Councillor Hedin in the original "Doctor Who" television series. He won a Tony Award in 1979 for the Broadway play "Bedroom Farce."
Gough was born in in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and began his acting career in 1946. He played in a number of television films and series, including the 1967 "Pride and Prejudice" in which he played Mr. Bennet. His long list of impressive film credits include the 1962 "The Phantom of the Opera House, Sydney Pollack, Oscar-winning" Out of Africa "and Martin Scorsese's" The Age of Innocence. "
Gough has maintained a good working relationship with director Tim Burton for their time together on "Batman." He also appeared in the director of "Sleepy Hollow," "Corpse Bride" and, in what would be his last major project, as the voice of Dodo Bird in 2010 of "Alice in Wonderland."

You could try turning off the checkbox where it makes Microsoft Word the default email editor. We have had similar issues because of that before.

Sorry man, I didn't realize that feature is built in to Outlook 2007. What versions of Word are they running?

Running Office 2010....all I see online is that Word is the new HTML editor and it is causing numerous problems, to the point we are about to move back to 2003...
Sep 8, 2010 at 10:22 UTC
Yeah. That's what I have been hearing too. Office 2003 lets you pick the editor and 2007 and 2010 don't. Unfortunately, I don't know of a way around it, except for maybe checking if there is any strange HTML settings inside of Word.

After knowing that algebra is a formal language, the next thing to know is that algebra is logical.
- The same advice on going slowly and reading this out loud still applies, as it really helps in making sense out of it all when you hear it.
Algebra as deductive logic
To say that algebra is deductive logic is the same as saying that everything in algebra can and should be known, and anything in algebra is related to everything else you know about algebra.
- A deduction is a conclusion that must come from the premises or facts that are known at the time you begin to work the problem; these premises lead to your conclusion when certain rules of deduction are used.
- An example is the conclusion that follows from the following premises:
- If it is raining, then Andrea is carrying her unbrella.
- It is raining.
- The inescapable conclusion is:
- Andrea is carrying her umbrella.
- When a deductive argument is in proper form, and all of the premises are true, then it is inescapable that the conclusion must be true. The argument is then said to be sound.
- People who disagree with sound deductive arguments are inescapably unsound.
The beauty of algebra is that being deductive logic, it means that everything in algebra is either a definition that is accepted as true because it is the definition of something algebraic (such as the properties of algebraic objects or the axioms of the deductive logic you are using), or it is a deduction that is directly or indirectly derived from those definitions.
- Corollary: There is no magic in algebra.
- Nothing just appears magically in algebra. If you run into something new, then it is either a new definition of some algebraic object that you haven't seen before, or you must have skipped something earlier.
- If it is something you skipped earlier, GO BACK or BE LOST on going forward. (A MAJOR CAUSE OF THRASHING)
A simplified deductive logic
It is possible to spend an entire semester on a college-level symbolic logic course, but we can strip that down to a minimum to get going with CRAM Math.
- We can begin by looking more closely at the previous example about Andrea's umbrella in the rain.
- Premises (often cited as "Given"):
- If it is raining, then Andrea is carrying her unbrella.
- It is raining.
- Conclusion (often signaled with the word "Therefore"):
- Andrea is carrying her umbrella.
There is a pattern here. We can get symbolic by using single capital letters stand for entire sentences, so that it is easier to concentrate on the logical pattern of the argument.
- Let A stand for "It is raining."
- Let B stand for "Andrea is carrying her umbrella."
The "If... then..." statement is a hypothetical statement, and it has a special form in deductive logic.
- Let A B stand for "If A then B."
- We can also read A B as "A implies B."
Now we can summarize the argument using only symbols, so long as we remember what A and B stand for.
- A B (given)
- A (given)
- Therefore (often shown by stacked cannon balls ""):
- B (conclusion)
One more time, using only the symbols we have just learned:
- A B (given)
- A (given)
This is pretty much what a deductive argument looks like.
- Notice that the conclusion is also contained somehow in the premises. This is part of the "no magic" property of deductive logic. The conclusion just did not appear out of thin air but is actually contained in the premises.
The deductive rule of inference: Modus Ponens
Any deductive argument that is the above pattern is known as Modus Ponens.
- For the last time, listing the meanings of our capital letters and using "Modus Ponens" or "MP" as the reason for making our conclusion:
- Let A stand for "It is raining."
- Let B stand for "Andrea is carrying her umbrella."
- A B (given)
- A (given)
- Because A is true in this problem, we know that Andrea is carrying her umbrella in this problem.
So what?
Solving algebra problems assigned as homework or dropped in our laps during quizzes and exams is a logical step-wise process of re-writing the facts we are given into a simple statement of our solution. The deductive nature of this process guarantees us that as long as we state the givens and use the deductive process to reach a conclusion, our answers must be right!
- Formally-trained mathematicians and teachers of algebra identify and recognize these re-writing processes as proofs and know they cannot be argued with unless one is trying to be unsound.
- Proofs are sound only when the proof is in valid form and the premises are true; these are the two necessary conditions for having a sound argument. If any of the premises are shown to be not true, or if the argument's deductive form is invalid in any way, you don't really have a proof.
- If you learn and use CRAM Math, it is completely possible for you to become an "A" student, even if you have been flunking out up until now. I have seen it happen, where students who were flunking out actually passed Algebra I with "B" and "A" semester grades after getting an "F" in the previous semester.
- This cannot happen unless you learn and practice what you learn. There are no miracles, only hard work, but it does pay off in better grades when you use CRAM Math as a guide to avoid thrashing in frustration.
Observation about logic leading to programming
Much of what goes on in a computer program is actually decision-making. A series of implications can form the basic logic of a program. As the program runs over time, various conditions become true, and the program reacts to things that the user provides as input, whether it is a keystroke on the keyboard, the movement of a mouse or joystick, or the press and release of the joystick button.
- All of the "reactions" of animated characters in computer games are actually the evaluations of algebraic expressions in a computer program that are mapped to your computer's input devices.

The copies of the error-ridden front page of the Australian Financial Review (AFR) are in demand and subjected to competitive auctions on eBay. One even sold for $49.
The fact that the paper was nowhere near ready for publications came out in bold screaming headlines:
"Joe Hockey headline tk here"
"Japan headline"
And the mother of all:
The hashtag "#Worldisfukt" started trending almost instantly.
You had ONE. JOB. #Worldisfukt http://t.co/E6wVvYfJmV — Lost Interface (@LostInterface)

Embarrassing right? But there are copies of the special weekend edition on sale for up to$90 out there; so what does that tell you about mistakes and silly situations?
Not bad for a paper that costs $3.30 is it?
LOL. I have a copy of the #worldisfukt AFR . . . start the bidding http://t.co/5Vx6rWSxox — Nick Sas (@Sasbites)
April 28, 2014
But the editor-in-chief still apologized for the mistake.
"The WA edition is the result of a simple error that got through normal quality control and then ended up with an extremely bad result.
"The first thing I want to do is to apologize to Western Australian readers of The Australian Financial Review for the obviously unacceptable state of the front page of their paper this morning. It is an extreme one-off and we are going through our processes to make sure it does not happen again."
He added that the mistake occurred, 'when production staff in Sydney pressed a wrong button.'
It was just a bad day for the paper since some editions of the AFR in Sydney were published without a barcode making them difficult for retailers to process and as a result some copies were given away for free.

Some new details today for Brad Anderson's next film guaranteed to screw with your head, The Vanishing on 7th Street. Given Anderson's track record, which includes Session 9 and The Machinist, we'll see pretty much anything the director gets to do. But we have to admit directing chops aside, the flick sounds pretty damned good.
Finally, after some fairly vague details, we have an official plot crunch for the film, which stars Hayden Christensen, John Leguizamo, and Thandie Newton. Dig on that below. No release dates have been issued as of yet, but when we know, you'll know!
For more check out an early title card treatment over at Bloody Disgusting.
A mysterious, seemingly global blackout causes countless populations to simply vanish, leaving only their clothes and possessions behind. A small handful of survivors band together in a dimly-lit tavern on 7th Street, struggling to combat the apocalyptic horror. Realizing they may in fact be the last people on earth, the darkness hones in on them alone.

Target: Mark Watts, President of World Society for the Protection of Animals
Goal: Support a campaign averting the needless deaths of dogs around the world
In many developing countries, mass dog killings occur every day. The brutal poisoning, strangling or electrocution of dogs is undertaken in efforts to rid communities of rabies – but this method has many times been proven ineffective at stopping the disease. In response to this tragic predicament, the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) has launched a global campaign that will stop dog killings and cure rabies at the same time. Support Collars Not Cruelty, the campaign that will save millions of innocent dogs while protecting impoverished communities around the world from rabies.
The idea behind Collars Not Cruelty is to replace mass dog killings with the only sustainable and effective solution to rabies: mass dog vaccination. In this tactic, WSPA workers or local animal control agencies roam around administering vaccinations to dogs, marking each vaccinated dog with a red collar. Once enough animals in any affected area are immune, the disease has nowhere to go and dies out with the last infected animals.
This method has already saved the lives of many people and dogs on the Indonesian island of Bali. Following a rabies outbreak in 2009, tens of thousands of dogs were poisoned in fear of the disease. Little progress in controlling the outbreak was made until WSPA teamed up with local authorities to launch a mass vaccination campaign. In less than one year, the campaign vaccinated 210,000 dogs,halved human rabies deaths, and reduced dog rabies cases by over 45 per cent.
The victory in Bali is just the beginning for Collars Not Cruelty. Already having launched a mass vaccination project in Bangladesh, WSPA also signed an agreement guaranteed to save at least 500,000 dogs in China over the next four years. WSPA has global goals for its campaign, but it needs as much encouragement and support as it can get to achieve them. Sign this petition and support the WSPA's Collars Not Cruelty initiative in saving the lives of innocent dogs around the world.
Dear President Mark Watts,
In many developing countries, fear and misinformation surrounding the rabies disease has resulted in mass culling of innocent dogs. In efforts to control rabies, animal control workers often poison, strangle, or electrocute dogs on sight. This problem is the reason WSPA's Collars Not Cruelty campaign is vitally important. Your organization is doing amazing work in this program, work that must be promulgated throughout the world.
As our planet gets more and more crowded, diseases have better opportunities to spread, and people have less opportunity to learn how control them. Collars Not Cruelty is ingenious in that it cures a disease, saves the lives of innumerable dogs, and educates people on the best ways to deal with viral outbreaks. I have written this letter to show my full-hearted support of Collars Not Cruelty, and to encourage you to broaden the program. I thank you for your leadership at WSPA, and urge you to extend the Collars Not Cruelty campaign to as many developing countries as possible.
[Your Name Here]

The project, announced today (9 January 2014) is funded by the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory's (Dstl) Centre for Defence Enterprise (CDE) in the UK.Traditionally, inertial navigation systems (INS) comprising of gyroscopes and accelerometers are used to estimate position when global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) such as GPS is not available. However, even expensive inertial navigation systems produce a positional error, which drifts by as much as several hundreds of metres per hour from the true position.The challenge faced by Plextek Consulting's Defence Group was overcoming these positional errors with a solution that could also achieve a desirable system size, weight, power and cost for deployment as an aid to a dismounted soldier.To achieve these goals Plextek Consulting researched alternative methods and technology to suit the military and defence landscape, and instead developed a solution combining a COTS optical sensor and advanced image processing techniques to form a composite optical navigation system.The end result is a flexible tracking system that can be used on its own or combined with a conventional INS to yield a highly-accurate solution to navigation in GNSS-denied environments.Nicholas Hill, Plextek's Director, Defence and Security commented on the project: "This project has resulted in an innovative, state-of-the-art defence technology to meet the precise requirements of soldiers operating in a very difficult and high-risk environment. It's a perfect example of Plextek Consulting's ability to solve technically complex challenges within competitive project timescales and budget constraints.He continued: "Our innovative culture, which encourages the cross-pollination of ideas, coupled with many years experience of successfully exploiting commercial technologies into defence applications, means we're ideally placed to add value in many of the current problem areas facing the defence industry."Andy Nicholson, Head of CDE and Supplier Engagement at Dstl, said: "Through CDE, we fund research into novel, high-risk, high-potential-benefit innovations to enable development of cost-effective military capability advantage. Plextek Consulting is an enthusiastic innovative SME which has been successful in a number of CDE funding competitions, which have helped the company expand its networks across the defence industry."
