Volkswagen Passat Maintenance and Repair
vwgrrrl Posts: 19What is it with the VW's and the interior fog issue? It fogs way more than other non-VW cars. Is there a leak somewhere or is it just a fog-happy car? The defroster takes a while before it actually goes away, if at all. Anyone else experience this?
2004 Passat GLS 1.8 Turbo - 40,000k miles
Our Passat fogs waaayyyy less than our Honda Accord.
If I were you, I'd want to check the entire car for water intrusion. Check these trouble spots - all four footwells under the mats. Make sure that no water is collecting under the hood in the air plenum space - that's the area where the battery is, between the engine and the lower windshield edge. You'll need to, at the very least slide open the little hatch over the battery and peek in below the battery.
You'll also want to make sure that the air conditioning condensate is actually dripping onto the road surface, and not backing up and getting into the car.
Check the trunk and the spare tire well, too. Feel all around to make sure all the carpeting and pads are dry.
Finally, you'll want to make sure that the sunroof drip hoses aren't obstructed.
Post again with your findings.
PS: You do have the HVAC air recycling button off, right?
sadie14 Posts: 1I'm trying to figure out what is the fluid container on the front right side of the engine closest to the bumper? It's not identified in the manual and the fluid is LOW! It is in front of fuse box on my 2001 Passat 1.8t engine.
"the sunroof drip hoses aren't obstructed"
If I am not mistaken, as a part of recall, the drip hoses are now cut flush with body of the car. If they are not it maybe worthwile to get to the VW dealer and apply all recalls.
Hello, there are four containers which are power steering, brake , transmission and washer. I expect the container to which you are referring is transmission. The power steering may be marked hydraulic and is likely closer to center of engine compartment , the brake should be identified but is likely at the back and near the center. Before you add anything you should check with a mechanic to ensure the proper fluid is added.
Your comment about it being on the right front of the car is confusing me. Do you mean the one directly in front of the windshield washer reservoir? Or, put another way, on the driver's side of the car? If so, that's the power steering fluid. On my '03 model, it has a green cap, with the imprint of a drop of liquid and the outline of a steering wheel. AND I suggest that you buy the PS fluid at your VW dealer. But make by checking your owner's manual.
mitchellc Posts: 1Hi guys, im new to this forum so let me know if ive come to the wrong place.
I have a Passat B5 1998 2.8L V6 sedan with a major lock issue.
Now when I insert the key in the drivers side lock, and turn the key to lock the door (turn it to 9 o-clock) the doors will lock, but when I flip the key back to the 12 0-clock position to take it out of the lock the doors all unlock again and windows go down as this is a standard function of the passats if the door lock is turned for a couple of seconds.
If I use the boot to lock the car it works fine. Sometimes when I try to lock/unlock it the doors all work fine and off I go, but the majority of times I have the problem. The same thing happends when I unlock the car, the doors all unlock then lock again.
I have had the drivers side door lock mechanism replaced and this solved nothing. I have no idea what to do with it and would love to get this fixed.
If anyone has any tips or suggestions please let me know. Also let me know if you need more info.
Thanks a lot guys, have a great day.
ssjeffrey6 Posts: 1hello. i have just noticed the horn does not work...where are the fuses/fuse box located? thanks. srj
iscariot Posts: 1A few days ago, I noticed that the back right seat floor was wet with what seemed to be water. I soaked it up with towels, and let it dry out. Today, I was on my way to get a cleaner for the carpet when I heard water sloshing around. I looked back to see what it was, but there was nothing back there that could be spilling water.
There was a puddle of water in the back seat, and the bottom of the car below the puddle is wet. So there is obviously water inside the car.
Where is it coming from, and how do I get rid of it?
Do you have a moonroof? If so, suspect that the drains are clogged and have them checked right away. It will get worse, trust me, and the water on the back seat is a bad sign. Signed, voice of wet experience. :shades:
If you don't have a moonroof, perhaps someone else has another idea, but clogged moonroof drains are where my money is.
Here's your list of things to check:
1) as already suggested, the sunroof drains. You'll find one each near the front door hinges when the doors arre fully open. There is a recall to have the tips of these drains snipped off to help eliminate the clogging issue. You will find one drain each behind the rear wheels.
2) A/C drain: Has been known to clog and allow A/C condensate to find its way into the interior of the car.
3) Air Plenum drains: There are two drains in the area at the base of the windshield between the two firewalls. One is under the brake booster and the other is directly under the battery. If these are clogged, you will hear water sloshing around. If sufficient water has collected there, it can enter the car through the HVAC air inlet (there is a recall on resealing the air inlet gasket, but I don't know if it applies to your year).
4) Door gasket: Could be leaking.
What you need to tell is more detail about when this occurs: A/C running? Raining out?
Good luck with this. You'll want to make sure that the water is not intruding into the front footwells, as there are electronic control modules under the carpets under both the driver and passenger feet.
veedub4 Posts: 4i have a 1998 passat. the fuse boxes should be in the same spot. if you open your driver door, about as high as the steering wheel, it is on the left side that owuld be normally covered by the door.
benfan Posts: 1This will be a second car -- have a 99 collora with 110Km, still runs great. I located this car at a small dealer. AWD, only 48,000 miles, ask $9,000. Heard a lot of problems about VW. I went there and took a test drive yesterday. This car runs smothly. The exterior looks good, except part of the cover of the radio antenna tore out. The inside looks old. Do you think it is a signal that this car was not maintenance well? I do not expect to spend thousand $ on the car maintenance.
Would you please give me some suggestion? Thanks!
inthegarden Posts: 1I am on my 4th VW Passat, this one an awesome wagon. I put about 32,000 miles on the car each year and when I reach 70K big things start to go wrong or wear out but I still have 3 years to pay off the car. This is a big dilemma because each time I trade in the car (usually around 70-80K because expensive problems are right around the corner) I take a large hit due to high mileage and have to carry over the outstanding balance to the new car loan...It's been driving up my monthly payment considerably since 2000 when I bought my first VW. So, my problem is that I LOVE VW Passats but they don't seem to hold up without very expensive repairs past 80K. I can't afford the high monthly payment and the repairs (way beyond warranty of course). Is the only suggestion to buy outside of VW? Camrys and Accords are boring and plain and not nearly as sporty and fun. I need a really durable, fun, sporty, affordable car that I can drive until at least it's paid off without the expensive repairs so early on. Any suggestions?
blitzg99 Posts: 12Hi all,
I have a VW Passat 2003 ( 1.8 L, GLS) with 60 k miles on it. I recently took it to an independent car repair shop for 60 k maintainence and they showed me that grease is coming out of the left front axle and recommended changing the whole left front assembly for $300. My car presently does not have any driving issues. Does this repair charge sound reasonable. I have heard people say that I could probably get away by just changing the boot for much less. Does any one have any thing to share on this.
Also can someone pls. recommend a good realiable car repair shop around Oakdale, Maplewood,Woodbury area in Twin Cities, Minnesota.
Thanks in advance,
I have not found a mechanic that will recommend Passat because of the numerous repairs and costs. It a piece of garbage. I went from a SAAB to this Passat and I have been kicking myself ever since. Saab was twice the car, 1/4 the trouble and twice the fun to drive. Boring is not a word you will use with Saab. If I ever get this Passat fixed so that there is nothing wrong I will not drive it again and will offer it for sale.
Probably by the time you drop the axle and replace both boots (no sense just replacing one, since the other could go anytime) and clean the CV joints to inspect them (no sense not visually inspecting them while they are on the bench), you might indeed be better off just putting in a complete axle kit on that side. Get an estimate for both approaches. And have the boots on the other side inspected carefully for splitting or cracks.

vradivoj Posts: 1The compass on my 2007 Passat is off and needs to be reset. When I am traveling North, it says I am going East. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
chuckhanson Posts: 16I have a 2005 Passat TDI. It how has 90,000 miles on it. I have had to replace the CV boots on both sides and two headlamps; otherwise no non-routine maintenance. I fully intend to run this car past 200,000 miles. I went through all the misery of two Cadillacs and one Honda CRV before I bought the Passat. I have never been so happy with a car. One of my employees purchased a new Passat and has had nothing but troubles with it. I believe she has replaced everything on the car. I don't understand the difference.

The situation, as I see it, is that you got lucky and she, like most of us, bought another lemon. You are the exception to the rule. I could not begin to list the things I've replaced in past 6 months alone. If I can get it to a state where there are no more repairs. I park it until it is sold. NEVER, EVER, to buy another,.
dublover Posts: 1so i absolutely love owning vw's i used to own a passat and i would honestly say if u haven bought it yet, DONT!!!!! i owned an 01 passat gls and it was a nightmare car. i had soooo many problems with it and i am not hard on my cars at all. my mechanic is solely just a German auto mechanic that specializes in vw and they enlightened me with the info that the problems i had were very common with passats. i now own an 01 jetta 1.8t and i love it love it!!! jettas are way better than passats little less luxury but deff worth it. and if its only 8k i would say something is deff wrong with it. well good luck if u did purchase it cause vee dubs are awesome cars if u didnt purchase it start looking into jettas and golfs!!!!!
bjss Posts: 51I own an 02 Passat Wagon GLS (bought new) and have not had many of the problems others list. Guess, I have been lucky? It's got 70K...did have to replace both CV boots (cracks) and had several recalls performed (I would check on this). Also, spent the $$ and did the Timing belt, water pump, etc...($1K), but plan to keep a while and feel it was worth it.
My advice would be to have a mechanic that specializes in VW thoroughly check it out. Big issue to me is whether the oil has been changed within the correct intervals and with the correct oil.
I love my VW, however, maintenance seems to be the key and not knowing if routine maintenance was preformed scares me a bit. Good luck.
jpmnova Posts: 15I currently own an 01 passat gls and could not be happier - 132K miles on it and have had minimal repairs. Bought the car new. I did the timing belt at 90K. Interesting how everyone's experience is different....
mikemartin Posts: 205We just dumped the Passat 2.0T.
We will never not only buy another VW for as long as we live (my wife and I), but I doubt we'll ever buy any turbo motor containing vehicle again.
I have a firm conviction that turbos in non-diesel engines is a marriage destined for inevitable failure. A ticking time bomb, rolling hand grenade, firing pin pulled, balanced precariously over the road.
I even wonder about the diesel turbo marriage.
What were the problems?
jlabruno Posts: 4Trying to find out how to replace the low/high beam headlight bulb on the drivers siide.
redsoxfans Posts: 3I am looking at buying a 2004 Passat wagon. A USED 2004 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT GLS 1.8T 4MOTION. I have never owned a VW, and after reading this forum, I am afraid to buy it. Price is 9K and it has 70K miles. Should I be afraid?
If you have to ask the question you already know the answer. You should be scared silly. Do yourself a big favour and find something else. Passat___ NO< NO< NO.
With thousands of cars made every day you don't need this problem.
Well I would sure do the following:
1. Try to find out the car's maintenance and repair history
2. Have it gone over with a fine tooth comb at an independent repair shop, and make sure they check for a) engine sludge b) debris in the auto. trans oil pan/check fluid c) examine all CV joints and their rubber bellows d) check for unusual tire wear and e) do a cylinder leakdown test for possible oil burning.

grunt gallery
grunt gallery was formed in 1984 by a collective of eight artists working in a small storefront, and became a registered not-for-profit society in 1989. Today, grunt is one of about 160 permanent artist-run centres in Canada.
grunt is known for presenting a wide diversity of artists and approaches to art-making; with a special focus on the Aboriginal, Ethnic, and Queer community's art projects which are often overlooked by Vancouver's conventional galleries.
grunt offers programming in four central streams: an Exhibition Series, a Media Arts program, Publishing in print and digital, and Special Projects in the community. We also have an extended presence online and in social media.
In 1995, grunt purchased its own unit in the Main Space building on East 2nd Avenue near Main Street. It was a move that challenged perceptions and expectations of us, but allowed us to raise the level of work we were doing.
grunt gallery has never participated in Giving Tuesday before. But this year, we are joining the movement to ask for your help with some critical renovations to our now 20 year old facility.
We need to install a new lighting grid, HVAC, archival storage cabinets, and technical equipment. These renovations are expected to cost over $30,000.
We have been awarded two grants to support this necessary work, but still need to raise about $10,000 more in order to complete the renovations.
Please click the DONATE NOW button below to make a contribution. Thank you so much for your support!

As Greece's parliament approved austerity measures Monday, whole swaths of Athens burned.
Hacker collective Anonymous reacted to the cuts, too, taking down the Web sites of Greece's prime minister, the police and parliament, the International Business Times reports. As of this writing, those sites were back up.
The Post's Michael Birnbaum reports on the spending cuts:
"The measures, which will slash the minimum wage, trim a fifth of government workers and slash entitlement spending, are wrenchingly unpopular in a country already seized by 21 percent unemployment and dim prospects for the future. But European leaders say that Greece will eventually go bankrupt — even with the new $182 billion bailout — if it does not make the changes they are requiring."
Much of the rioting Sunday took place just outside the parliament building, where tear gas from the protests seeped inside. At one point, a Communist Party lawmaker hurled the thick austerity measures bill across the room.
"The people [have] sent a message: Enough is enough!" Ilias Iliopoulos, general secretary of a public sector union, told Reuters. "They can't take it anymore."

The Motif of Miracles In Peace Like a River Definition of Miracles 1. Reuben's Birth 4. Swede's Saddle 5. Healing Mr.Holgren's Face 3. Endless Soup Bowl 6. Passing State Troopers an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs
an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs
a divinely natural phenomenon experienced humanly as the fulfillment of spiritual law "Mother cried out, Dad turned back to me, a clay child wrapped in a canvas coat, and said in a normal voice, 'Reuben Land, in the name of the living God I am telling you to breathe'"(Enger 3). "And then, as I stood watching, Dad walked right off the edge of the truck. ... And did not fall. He went on pacing - God my witness - walking on air, praying relentlessly, a good yard of absolutely nothing between the soles of his boots and the thistles below,"(Enger 17). "A small pot of soup. Was I the only one who noticed how many bowls were served, how the pot was replenished as through from a well, how there was somehow enough again and again to fill the ladle? Cleaning up the dishes after supper I felt a surprising weight in the faithful vessel, and lifting the lid, beheld a pot still more than half full of our king of soups. Make of it what you will,"(Enger 47). "I ran my hand down the slope of the horn, down the slick sitting place and up the swept cantle, and that's when I noticed that the flaw - the pulled-apart leather Davy had been unable to fix, that he'd apologized for - was gone... The wound had simply healed up... Make of that what you will,"(Enger 48). "Dad lifted his hand, sudden as a windshift, touched Holgren's face and pulled away...Then I saw that his bedeviled complexion - that face set always at a rolling boil - had changed,"(Enger 80). "An easy assignment, wouldn't you think? Stopping a family in a green Plymouth wagon, pulling a twenty-foot Airstream trailer? They didn't get us, though; not even one of them saw us, though we saw them, as I've described; we tiptoed through that town like a fat boy through a wolf pack. Make of it what you will,"(Enger 167). By Anand Sekar Reuben's Perspective "For too long it's been used to characterize things or events that, though pleasant, are entirely normal... A clear sunrise after an overcast week - a miracle, people say, as if they've been educated from greeting cards... Such things are worth our notice everyday of the week, but to call them miracles evaporates the strength of the word. Real miracles bother people, like strange sudden pains unknown in medical literature. When a person dies, the earth is generally unwilling to cough him back up. A miracle contradicts the will of the Earth"(Enger 3). Reuben's perspective is important because he is both the narrator and the witness of Jeremiah's miracles. Reuben's birth was truly a miracle by contradicting the will of the Earth, which was living when he was supposed to die. It's Reuben's first experience of a miracle and starts off the beginning of the book. The book begins with this miracle and ends with Reuben saying his Anaphora, "Make of it what you will," after every miracle. This introduction and conclusion puts further emphasis on miracles all throughout the book, making it the primary motif. 2. Jeremiah Walking on Air Walking on air is not something that you see everyday. While he was floating, Jeremiah was so deep in prayer that he didn't even notice his own miracle. This shows how Jeremiah's faith in God is one of the main reasons why these miracles occur. This is another event that you don't see happening everyday (other than those endless toothpaste tubes you get a couple times a year). Swede's birthday was a happy event and nobody was in a time of need or desperation. This miracle shows how miracles don't always need to happen whenever there is a problem or predicament, but rather can happen at anytime, anywhere. This is another miracle that Reuben witnesses right after Swede's birthday party. Reuben also remembers that his dad was the one who picked it up, and could have been the only one to repair the permanent damage. This was a really simple miracle that wasn't life changing. Even Swede didn't notice the smooth leather before Reuben pointed it out. Miracles don't happen everyday, yet most aren't life changing or destiny altering either. This miracle that Reuben witnessed was one that Reuben didn't like at all. He didn't think that Principal Holgren should have been healed when he had betrayed Jeremiah. This does not only add to the motif of miracles, but further improves the theme of forgiving your enemies. Jeremiah did know a lot about war and conflict due to his son murdering his enemy. Rather than slapping Mr. Holgren, like I would have, he forgave, pitied, and healed him. This is a miracle not only because he instantly healed someone's face, but because he forgave his enemy. This is another miracle showing how the faith in God is a main cause. They went on for many miles on their gas tank without stopping and didn't get noticed by Andreeson's state troopers. This most likely happened because of Jeremiah's prayers, which finally judged if they would get caught or travel freely. Conclusion Miracles is one of the most significant motifs of the book. The book ends with, "Make of it what you will," making the whole story seem like a report of Jeremiah's miracles witnessed by Reuben.

Easy to install: Laminate flooring may be easy
Easy to install: Laminate flooring may be easy to install but it requires the expertise of a professional so make sure you involve someone competent (http://clubfans.co.uk/).
You can also make any room appear larger and brighter, when you use the proper combination of paint and wallpaper. Depending on the effect that you are trying to achieve, ideally you will want to use light-colored paint on your walls to maximize the brightness and roominess. For a more warm and cozy effect, rich, deep earth tones will evoke mystery, warmth and an exotic feel.
There is something timeless about glass. It can compliment both traditional homes and also ultra-modern spaces. Glass antique lamps can bring a real sense of style and luxury to any interior design. Antique lamps can be functional, eye-catching and aesthetically pleasing. They can brighten up any room in your home and are available in a wide range of different styles and designs.
When office partitions are mentioned, the mind may immediately jump to the dull and monotonous workplaces of old, the type filled with rabbits' warrens of cubicles where workers would huddle in individual boxes for the majority of the day. This use of office partitions is certainly outdated, and not something any of us are keen to go back to. These days the ideal design for an office space encourages collaborative working, creating thinking and innovative practices and old fashioned partitions that separate workers simply don't seem to fit into this ethos.
Some people say that they are tired of buying oak furniture because it is an old fashioned idea of buying furniture. However, I say that although it is an old look but have you ever heard it going out of styles? Be it 1910 or 2009. It is still in very much style and a lot of people prefer it over other material when you choosing which furniture to buy. It is robust and sturdy and for people who do not have a budget to change their furniture to suit modern trends can breath easy by buying oak furniture as it will not go out of style any time soon.

Laughing Dead Trailer (1998)
17 July 1998 85 mins
A young junkie emerges half dead out of a toxic river not knowing where he is or how he got there. His name is Hunter, and he can't possibly imagine the nightmarish reality he is about to face...and why. The landscape is a diseased post-apocalyptic Los Angeles populated by cannibalistic mutants, heavily armed survivalists and a terror-stricken citizenry that dares not wander the streets at night. This literal "hell on Earth" is controlled by Vincent, a genocidal madman who is even worse than he seems...a monstrous, ages-old vampire that has transformed the city into a human blood-farm and slaughterhouse. As Hunter battles to stay alive amidst the homicidal carnage and bloody spectacle of daily life, nothing could prepare him for his encounter with Vincent, the terrifying truth of his own existence, and a vampiric journey of lust, power and addiction that can only lead to utter horror and annihilation!

How to become an Uber driver in Charlton Heights WV
Uber is the alternative that is popular because it enables smartphone users take them literally anywhere in the town and to contact a registered driver. The program not only functions in the US, but also in other areas of the world. All one has to do would be to download the program and share your location via GPS or Wifi for one to be picked up by your driver.
Uber Driver Car Requirements in Charlton Heights WV
You must have a vehicle (or purchase one) that meets the Uber Car Requirements.
The UberX vehicle requirements:
- A 4-door sedan, with 4 or more passenger seating excluding drivers.
- Vehicle with Year of 2001* or newer.
- Must have in-state plates.
- No vehicle markings with Salvaged or Taxi
- Pass the Uber vehicle inspection.
- Up to date registry, your name does not need to be on the registry
How much do uber drivers make in Charlton Heights WV
Of all Uber's numbers, one is particularly essential: $90,766. In a late-May post on its blog site, Uber pointed out $90,766 as the median yearly income of a driver for UberX in New york city City. "UberX chauffeur partners are small business entrepreneurs showing across the nation that being a driver is sustainable and lucrative," the company wrote. "In contrast, the country's taxi drivers are frequently below the poverty line … so that rich taxi business owners can reap the benefits of motorists having no other alternative to make a living." Uber was the heroic disrupter of those taxi business, and $90,766 was its variation of the American dream– evidence that contract employees in the so-called sharing economy could do much more than simply make ends satisfy. In hiring drivers to its platform in New york city and around the world, little has been more important than the glimmer of $90,766.
Recently however, as fares have fallen and Uber's own commissions increased, motorists have grown disillusioned with the company and its guarantees. From London to San Francisco to New york city, they have actually banded together to protest against Uber. The rhetoric they when saw as boosting now appears misleading and manipulative. Slowly however surely, Uber drivers are questioning whether Uber's guarantees about earnings and "small business" opportunities are in fact aligned with truth. And in New york city, the birthplace of this grass-roots labor motion, $90,766 is starting to flicker out.
Uber Driver Application Process in Charlton Heights WV
If you're thinking about becoming an Uber chauffeur, you might be questioning exactly what the requirements are and whether you'll get hired if you use. Uber doesn't provide you excessive info about the requirements before you apply, so may feel like you don't have sufficient info to progress with your application. In this post you'll discover the Uber chauffeur requirements so you can discover today if you can apply to become a motorist.
You must have access to a 4-door vehicle that is Ten Years old (2006) or more recent– However numerous cities are different
In general, Uber accepts automobiles 2006 or more recent, however numerous cities have a different requirement. To discover the specific design year details for your city, go to ubermovement.com. Enter your city in the upper-right corner, then clicks "Products" to see what the design year requirement is for each Uber service. If you cannot discover the information there, presume the requirement is 2006 or newer– 10 years old. Restore title and ' brought back' cars are declined.
If you do not currently have access to a car that's Uber authorized, you can apply to own initially and get access to the car later by clicking "I need a cars and truck" on the uber driver application. You'll go through the background and driving record check, and when you're authorized to drive you can buy, lease, or a lease a automobile.

Louis XV (Versailles, 15 February 1710 – Versailles, 10 May 1774) ruled as King of France and of Navarre from 1 September 1715 until his death on 10 May 1774. Coming to the throne at the age of five, Louis reigned until 15 February 1723, the date of his thirteenth birthday, with the aid of the Régent, Philippe, duc d'Orléans, his great-uncle, thereafter taking formal personal control of government.
Unexpectedly surviving the death of most of the royal family, he enjoyed a favourable reputation at the beginning of his reign and earned the epithet "le Bien-Aimé" ("the Beloved"). However, in time, his lack of morals, general inability to effectively reform France and the Monarchy, and the perceived failings of his foreign policy lost him the affection of his people, and he ended his life amongst the most unpopular kings of France.
While historians have traditionally treated Louis XV harshly, more recent research has suggested that he was in fact very intelligent and dedicated to the task of ruling the largest state in Europe, bar Russia. His nagging indecision, fueled by his awareness of the complexity of problems ahead, as well as his profound timidity, hidden behind the mask of an imperious king, may account for the poor results achieved during his reign. In many ways, Louis XV prefigures the "bourgeois rulers" of the romantic 19th century. While dutifully playing the role of the mighty king carved out by his predecessor and great-grandfather, Louis XIV, Louis XV in fact cherished nothing more than his private life far away from the pomp and ceremony of Court. Having lost his mother while still little more than an infant, he longed for a reassuring and motherly presence, which he tried to find in the intimate company of women, something for which he was much criticized both during and after his life.

I am working on a CICS webservice project (CICS as a service provider)and we are using RDZ to create WSDL and bind files.
We have different data structures as output and are planning to use different container for each data structure of the output. It seems we need to create a "Channel Description Document" to support multiple containers.
Am very new to XML and not sure how to code a Channel Description Document. We are using RDZ 8.0.3, does that support creation of Channel Description Document?
Any documents would be helpful.
Thanks in Advance!

Re: RDZ - CICS Webservice with Multiple Containers2012-08-13T16:00:18ZThis is the accepted answer. This is the accepted answer.Hello,
RDz does not provide tooling to create a channel description document (CDD). As you might know, RDz does have the ability to consume the CDD. The following CICS TS info-center links documents how to create a channel description document: http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/cicsts/v4r1/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.cics.ts.webservices.doc%2Ftasks%2Fdfhws_channeldesc.html
If you want RDz to consider providing support for CDD, please open a requirement (RFE).

I was able to create "channel Description Document" and was able to generate WSDL using it.
Below was the channel Description Document which i used.
<channel name="rtchanel1" xmlns="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/CICS/channel">
<container name="rtcont1" type="bit" use="required">
<structure location="C:\Documents and Settings\r02c.cpy"/>
<container name="rtcont2" type="bit" use="optional">
<structure location="C:\Documents and Settings\r04c.cpy"/>
<container name="rtcont3" type="bit" use="optional">
<structure location="C:\Documents and Settings\r12c.cpy"/>
The WSDL was generated and the container "rtcont2" & "rtcont3" came with "minoccurs=0" but does not contain any "maxoccurs".
I need to have maxoccurs=unbound as i would have many occurances of the structure r04c & r12c.
Any help as to what need to be specified in the CDD or any settings by which i could get a maxoccurs of unbound.
Thanks in Advance!

I came across The Summer Psychic by Jessica Adams completely by chance...or, perhaps it wasn't chance at all. You see, I was recently up in North Yorkshire and it was the depths of winter. It was cold. The sky was heavy with snow. And I found myself looking for something to read that wasn't overly dense and would frankly cheer me up. So, perhaps I was guided by the proverbial powers that be to a book that would do just that.

What an interesting year 2017 will be!
What a surprising - and to some even shocking - year 2016 turned out to be. Perhaps most significantly, it was the year the British people chose Brexit and the year the American people elected Trump. These were two outcomes precious few saw coming. Pundits, pollsters and even psychics told us that it wouldn't happen - that it couldn't happen. Yet, in the end, it did happen... Continue reading »

Inpatient Treatment for Heroin Addiction VS. Intensive Outpatient Programs
People are frequently uncertain what the difference is between inpatient Heroin treatment and outpatient programs in Duncanville. They want to determine the comforts of one type over the other. For the most part, inpatient therapy requires, as the title suggests, that you live at the clinic for a period of treatment. This gives you an opportunity to make a clean break from your home and work-life. Medical studies illustrate that inpatient facilities are more successful at keeping their clients alcohol and drug-free long-term. Outpatient programs are often lower-cost and more convenient to the user, though that freedom comes at the cost of a higher likelihood of relapsing.

Back Corbyn to lead Labour back into government
We are trade unionists and anti-poverty and justice campaigners. Over the past 32 years, we have lobbied, marched and picketed alongside Jeremy Corbyn MP. Jeremy's dedication to peace and social justice has won our respect, as has his personal integrity and commitment to socialist values.
Corbyn's decision to stand for Labour leader could not be more timely. It has helped to inspire a national debate within the trade unions and among Labour voters about how best to oppose the unprecedented austerity measures and £12bn cuts to welfare promised by the Conservatives.
His candidacy has ensured a powerful voice defending public services is heard in the leadership campaign. He has rejected the failed politics of Blairism and resisted the drift to the Right following the general election.
Whether putting the case for Labour to adopt socialist politics in leadership hustings, addressing a rally against austerity in London, or speaking on picket lines opposing privatisation, Corbyn represents the only candidate able to galvanise the popular struggle against the government and translate this into a Labour majority at the next election.
We urge all those who - like us - support Jeremy Corbyn for Labour leader to pay £3 to join Labour as supporters, or sign up as members or affiliated supporters.

While David Wells returns to the Red Sox rotation on Wednesday, teammate Curt Schilling remains sidelined.
Schilling, who hasn't pitched in nearly a month, remains in a removable plastic cast to stabilize his ankle and a timeline for his return is still uncertain.
"I've had a boot on for the past couple of weeks, so my ankle isn't getting any stronger," Schilling said on WEEI's "Dennis and Callahan radio show on Monday, according to the Boston Herald. "It was weak when I hurt it to begin with. So I'm not going back out there until it's strong, if not stronger than it was.
"How we can do that, and how quickly we can do that, is going to be the big question. There's some discomfort, but nothing like there was. I'm throwing with my short boot on as best I can to keep the arm as best I can so there's a lot less lag time between being ready [to come out of the boot] next week and getting out there and pitching."
Schilling will be in the boot until at least Friday, for a total of 3 1/2 weeks, where as Wells, who suffered a sprained plantar fascia ligament in his right foot, was in a similar cast for just two weeks and then needed nine days to return to pitching condition. That would suggest that the earliest Schilling could return would be the very end of May or beginning of June.
"I'm hoping that we're near being out of it, but there's a lot of work to be done once I get out of the boot," Schilling said on the radio. "You think about some of the basic concepts of what's happening, what's going to happen going forward."
Schilling, who is due to be reevaluated in Boston on Friday, has been throwing in the boot since May 5. However, manager Terry Francona told the Herald the rest of Schilling's rehab activity has been restricted to simulation work indoors.
"It felt better last week, which was an improvement," Schilling said. "I feel almost like [the] meaningless one because I'm not out there yet."
Schilling has been traveling with the Red Sox and doing his rehab work on the road.

NB Power (Canada) – Point Lepreau Simulator Re-host and Upgrade
In May 2015, WSC was awarded a contract by New Brunswick Power (NB Power) for the re-host and model upgrade project at the Point Lepreau Generating Station (PLGS) Training Simulator, which will be performed in two phases. The first phase includes porting the existing CANDU reactor's simulator models to the 3KEYMASTER™ Simulation Environment, upgrading to the 3KEYMASTER Instructor Station, replacing the existing Instructor Station P&IDs, developing a full set of control room soft panel graphics, and providing the necessary interface capabilities to retain the functionality of the existing stimulated systems and peripherals.
The second phase includes upgrading the existing reactor core thermal-hydraulics and neutronics models using our 3KEYRELAP5-RT (with NESTLE neutronics code) and WSC's 3KEYMASTER hydraulic, electrical, logic and other Modeling Tools. Systems and models being upgraded are the Primary Heat Transport (PHT) including Pressurizer and Boiler, PHT Inventory Control (Feed and Bleed), Calandria, Annulus Gas, End Shield Cooling, and Shutdown Cooling. Phase 1 is scheduled for completion in six months and the phase 2 model upgrades are targeted to be ready for training approximately 12 months afterwards.

The single white rose captured the old gardener's attention,
He lovingly cared for it, like it was his own grand-daughter,
The roses were just like family and friends in his eyes,
He gave them bright sunshine, and plenty of fresh water.
He had always planted roses in reds, yellows, and pinks,
Yet, it was the one white rose that he favored most,
The old gardener admired it's innocence and elegance,
A quality that the other roses just could not boast.
This precious rose was pure white, like new fallen snow,
Which only a cold, late November day could bring,
It's delicate petals were soft to the finger's touch,
Similar to that of a feather, in an angel's wing.
The old gardener was perplexed and astonished,
Only this rose bloomed through spring, summer, and fall,
Each of the other roses had withered months ago,
The frost and cold weather did not affect it at all.
With a smile, the old gardener took one last look,
Unknowingly, death would soon come without warning,
After he had settled down for a nap in his chair,
He drew his last breath, later on that morning.
His funeral was held on the very next day,
Loving words were spoken, as he was laid to rest,
His grand-daughter approached, with tears in her eyes,
As she placed the single white rose upon his chest.
The cemetery was a quiet and peaceful place,
Where family and friends gathered to remember,
A gentle snow began to fall upon the casket lid,
Brightening the gloom on this final day of November.
The old gardener's soul departed from this earth,
Lead away by a choir of angels, on delicate wings,
Then on through the pearly gates of heaven's garden,
Where the white rose still blooms, in eternal springs.

The October sky is crying,
Pelting the ground with tears.
Remembering the days of yore,
Of when…you was happily here.
The October winds are lonely,
They can no longer caress your face.
They grope and moan across the prairie,
Yearning…your warm embrace.
When you left us that August,
Your departure was too stout.
You used to flood us with presence,
But now there is a drought.
As the sky keeps on turning,
I miss you more each day.
As my heart keeps on beating,
I dedicate to you…my everyday.
You will always be the neighbor,
That never turned an eye.
And I will never forget the day,
You entered that Autumn sky.
And when I dream of you,
My soul seems to turn and toss.
For in my heart…will always play,
The ballad of your loss.
Copyright © Raul Moreno | Year Posted 2010
The peaceful gushing of those waves closing in
Was once enough to aid my sleep.
But since you left, it reminds me so
And the sound now makes me weep.
More than oceans apart, but forever joined
By those summer nights by the sea.
On the island of Emeralds I lay in your arms
You kissed and whispered to me:
'All of my life, I want it with you,
you make everything so much lighter.
I've not much to give except for my love
and a promise to make your world brighter.'
Can you still keep that promise now that you've gone?
It sure doesn't seem that way.
I care not about what I'm feeling inside
But how the world lost a good soul that day.
You gave so much more than was asked of you
And not once did you wince from your pain.
The worst day of my life started my strife
You were there and you weren't; you were lain.
And now all I have are memories
How I wish that they were enough.
They're stark reminders of your absence
And without you life will be tough.
To live or not to live;
That is now my every question.
And if I'm lost will you seek me out
And take me with you to heaven?

They said you needed surgery.
You said 'There's business I must do.'
I drove you to the funeral home.
The arrangements were for you.
I had to wait outside that day.
I couldn't go in there.
I don't know how you made those plans.
You showed how much you cared.
You knew you wouldn't make it.
You feared the end was near.
I hate what your life did to you.
I wish you were still here.
How do you plan your funeral?
Were you as scared as I?
What were your thoughts heading to the docs?
Did you know that you would die?
If I could turn back time and say
the things I'd like to say,
I'd say 'I love you' and 'I'll miss you.'
'I wish that you could stay! '

My friend once got into a crematorium.
As I promised him, on a certain gloomy date,
I brought him to the sea, with grief and sorry.
What for? Of course, on the sea to dissipate!

They say that time heals all
Yet there never seems enough
To say the words, to give your love
A mother always dies too soon
You try to make it linger
As her age increases yearly
You pray that God will spare her
Because you love her dearly
But when the days get tedious
She's sick, alone and weary
You pray that God may take her
Because you love her dearly
Mother, we will miss you,
Your love, your care and support
You have given us your all
And triumphantly defied life's challenges
You were so busy caring for others
That you forgot about yourself
In honour and in gratefulness, we say
Sweet mother, dearest oma*, may you rest in peace
Rest peacefully now your time has come
May angels guide your way
The time has come...yet 'tis oh so hard
To see you on your way
*Oma is dutch for Grandmother

Viking Funeral
When that day comes that I will die
Dress me in the finest clothes
Patterned from ecru silken threads
In contrast with my hazel eyes
As the sun sets west and reflects
upon the sea so warm and blue
Place me in a sailing craft
Hand carved from exquisite teak
Surround me with my memories
My keepsakes and my written words
When the tide goes out to join the sea
please set my sails all pointed east
Aim and shoot a flaming shaft
To pierce the boat set it aflame
And consume me on my final quest
to delve into my watery nest
When the last flame is extinguished,
Retrieve my ashes from the craft
And place them in an marble jar
And toss them in the ocean deep
My life has always been mundane
I never lived to seize the day
My luck and judgements never meshed
My essence nor my core refreshed
To take a trip in such a way
To be remembered on that day
Will seal the memory of my death
When I have breathed my final breath

Stepping on shuttered dreams
Feet bleeding wishes of travel
Disable soul mails postcards
To a corner called " Empty Apartment"
Still nature on the thirteenth floor
Mom's glasses left behind and a cup full of tears
A phone ringing obsessively
The door permanently unlocked…
Jetlag freezes childhood memories
Dirt squishes mortality between my toes
Ravens on cracked limbs distract me
A shovel full releases a white cloud
I jump on ready made steps in snow
Hungry children of the graves follow me
I stop, they stop, I feel, they feel - so lonely
Playing the game of "Orphaned Roulette"...

I'm nearing a store.
Has it something for me?
No; I'm nearing the next.
Hoping there's something to see.
I'm nearing a store.
For something that's new.
Fearing the worst.
Hoping for few.
I'm nearing a store
for something I need.
Only to eat.
Hoping to feed.
I'm nearing a store.
Have I been here before?
Bored again and again.
Hoping that time will soar.
I'm nearing a store.
long after I'm dead.
Placed in a coffin my size.
Hoping I'm free and fled.

Not dark here nor bright, feel so light
No body, no mass I feel infinite
I wonder aloud 'Is this what they call Death'
Search around, can't find a glimpse of Earth
No worries, no scares, find myself in bliss
What next, where next, find something amiss
Where is God, where am I, can't see any
Recall my pains and joys, how can I think!
Feel my fingers, I blink, I find myself in bed
People around with wreaths, I am declared dead
Moments ago, the world wrote my Epitaph
Kicking alive, I rise, its my time to laugh
Copyright © Suresh Iyer | Year Posted 2010
Don't you think that this title is darkly divine?
But, of course, there will have to be weirdness that's funny,
Though my nightmares are many and have complex arcs
There's some risk here I might have to work for my money!
Nightmare 1. To Wake Up Black
Can there be a fate worse than the skin of a black?
Can you show me a white man who seeks this advantage?
"Well, my guess is they wash their hands?" sycophants say,
For the "Mark of Cain" (1) stains them as racists teach adage.
Is it possible Donald is jealous of blacks?
Can't you feel Donald's pain as white Pillsbury "Dough" Boy?(2)
His clear "victim" persona when "tough guy" is sought?
The abused (3) cannot love when not losing is soul's joy.
Poet's Notes on Nightmare 1.
(1) White racists who call themselves Christians have long taught their children that since Cain killed his brother, all blacks are the children of mankind's first murderer. Blacks have been cursed by God and are therefore to be considered subhuman.
Christ says that if you even think about murdering someone, you are already guilty of the crime in God's eyes. Might the Mark of Cain, perhaps, be that you were born on this planet? God knows the "blackness" of your heart and still sent Christ to die for your sins.
(2) A reference to a monster in the movie "Ghost Busters."
(3) It's said Donald Trump's father had to rescue him several times from total bankruptcy, poor dad! Given Donald's apparent contempt for the poor and needy, it is easy to imagine that his father also held him in contempt, poor kid! The lesson he learned: "If I don't need anyone I have nothing to lose! (No one can hurt me!)" The reality seems to be, however, that there are few people in the world more thin skinned than Donald Trump!
Nightmare 2. To Wake Up Poor
The idea the wealthy wake up destitute
Seems improbable nightmare. Why should the rich worry?
The "real" wealth more in habits and friendship than gold,
Who can steal worth of practice or force trust to hurry?
But the ones never taught keys to wealth haunt my dreams,
For all poverty tends to endanger soul's passage,
To delay satisfaction and set aside gain
That might bridge future need, is prosperity's message.
Nightmare 3. To Wake Up a Woman
After three wives, my sister and mom, (I feel faint),
There is so much about me that nobody knows yet,
With no kids of my own, my best insights suspect...
Though I fear inner voice, something less is no sonnet.
I would have to turn off burning need to be right,
And perhaps open heart to adopting a daughter,
There's no way that I think I would want to give birth,
Why give birth to a child, men and Trump will just slaughter.
Nightmare 4. To Wake Up a Republican
OMG! Can it be I'm home safe in my bed?
This bad boy was "togetherness" way past my limit!
Always game, Donald Trump staked his claim! ("It's my fame!")
But he wisely picked hall with a "locker room" climate!
Young and old, tall and short, no dissent to report,
Queers (NOT GAY!), making hay, toes lined up, how they play! While
Trumps homogenized, GMO geese took the stage...
"Heil!" "Big Boy!" razzmatazz, "Yes!" "Big Hands!" razzmatazz, "Heil!"
Nightmare 5. To Wake Up Tone Deaf
You may laugh but to me this one's scary as Hell!
It's a dark deprivation, akin to not seeing!
You can hear, but the rainbows of color in sound
Are all missing, all tones are just grey shades of being.
As a child I could hear "Middle C" in my head
(Some name notes the way you call Rose red, pink, or yellow),
All men gifted with "Relative Pitch" carry tunes,
As can "Absolute Pitch" man, incredible fellow.
How could music be treasured if all tones were grey,
Could the beauty that's poetry dance with flame absent?
Lord, I weep for the folk who can't see with their ears,
Let me die if You must, but please spare me that torment.
To my heart each new note has the face of a child,
And these kids make the world quite enormously brighter,
Please you Lord, let me be, always your "Middle C!"
Never lost in a crowd, may I always be fighter.
Nightmare 6. To Wake Up With a "Big Head!"
Not much worse in the world than a man with "big head,"
To be one that's so dumb he thinks his poop's important,
No slight ever so small his foot can't find his mouth,
Get too close and you'll feel like you need disinfectant.
Late night comedy writers can lay down their pens,
Here's a man who thinks he makes the sun rise each morning,
Feckless bully who can't keep his pants or lips zipped,
Even Statue of Liberty bows head in mourning.
Nightmare 7. To Not Be A Christian
It's not even your choice when the rubber meets road,
Many claim to be Christian while secretly seething,
They confuse "faith" with saying that "Christ is my Lord."
Although words can be empty, changed hearts show re-birthing.
Rather let me be "Queer" one the "pious" reject!
It is Grace and not choice that leads all to the Father
The flock's weeping is useless unless they repent,
Any vote cast for Trump just mob living in anger.
Help me lift up my brother and hate just his sin,
Won't You free me to doubt Lord but teach me to question,
"Living faith" simply dead in those certain they know,
And let Grace and not judgement feed my reinvention.

Emerging from the downtown hardware store
I saw a strange funeral procession
Two black limo hearses were at the front
Then walked a man without expression
The man had a shaggy dog on a leash
A long string of people followed him
All of these people were in single file
That's why I addressed the man on a whim
"Forgive me for asking; I'm curious"
"What type funeral procession is this"?
My wife's in the lead hearse; my dog killed her
When she Bi*ched at me, he just went amiss
But I see there are two hearses up front
Alas, my mother-in-law was killed too
When she tried to help my wife, he killed her
Once my dog got mad, I knew they were through
I thought for a minute; then spoke real low
"I have a strange request, if you don't mind"
"Is there a chance I could borrow your dog"?
Well sure, but you have to go get in line

Trying to make sense of senseless murders...
among the flock there seem to be
a few without remorse
they want their name for all to see
no matter what the course
so silently they await the day
they've planned down to the minute
misfortune soon has it's way
with the poor souls caught up in it
and families left to grieve alone
while a killer still remains
with empty eyes and face of stone
he most certainly is insane
but deep within his twisted mind
lies coherence with evil purpose
psychopaths aren't well-defined
yet another will surely surface

The Funeral
His funeral was today;
That elder man of mans;
He had done everything
The world demands.
There was a mixed crowd
Of ages and worth;
The preacher spoke long;
With anecdotes and mirth.
Lifeless he lay, taking it all in,
Strains of Amazing Grace;
Never wore many formal suits;
Is that a grin on his face?
After all was said and done;
His kudos listed ad infinitem;
Tears were dropped along the pews,
But folks pretty well forgot em.
He was president of this;
On the board of that;
Loved his grandchildren;
But after all of that,
This beloved soul had written;
His own epitaph;
His tombstone would read;
"He knew how to laugh!"
Copyright © Sunlite Wanter | Year Posted 2016
He couldn't win for losing
He couldn't take anymore
Life was not amusing
It was only a chore
His mind was a mess
He only felt pain
Dull at it's best
He was going insane
He reached into his drawer and took out his gun
With no hesitation held it to his head
He pulled the trigger and it was done
You wonder what you could have said
Copyright © Nikki Reynolds | Year Posted 2016
If you've come to my funeral
I'm probably dead.
If you've come to it early
then it's you here instead.
All the times that we shared
such as joy and a laugh.
Was it just that you knew me
or a moment of gaffe.
How I loved you in friendship
with your wit and remarks.
When you spoke and were sure
of your mind and your larks.
You were honorably acting
in touch with yourself.
Your integrity towering
in spite of itself.
What a day to be with you
as alive or as dead.
in a time come together
saying all has been said.

Glistening tears roll down pale cheeks
Not wanting to look but scared not to peek
Another coffin, another life gone
Another funeral, but not the last one.
Eyes looking down, holding each others hands
Swaying together, shoulder to shoulder we stand
A waste of young life what's it all for
Another one afraid to answer the door.
Life is so precious, so short, yet so good
The ground hits the oak it splatters with mud
Another friend gone, more hearts are broke
We swallow it back, on misery we choke.
Blank faces and eyes covered with a mask
A pat on the back an arduous task
To say goodbye to another loved one
So precious to all, another mothers son.

I see you've come to pay respect.
I wondered if you'd come.
Your bright blue hat looks vibrant on.
All glowing, if not some.
The pastor puts a funeral on
as busy as it gets.
It's just like you to listen on
as any girl frets.
I watched you by the coffin some
and spread a lovely scent.
I wondered what you thought of death
and how your days were spent.
The organ played a charming tune
to calm you down a bit.
It couldn't be a better choice
than have my nerves as fit.
You prayed upon your knees I saw,
for what was rather long.
You always knew just what to say
to keep the going strong.
I'd hoped we'd meet again someday.
Perhaps a place less drab.
I've always held a place for you
for just this little gab.
I've waited for this time to come.
My manners all but shoddy.
I'd hoped that we'd again be one
despite my deathly body.
and all the words congregated somber,
passing observations and glasses around,
and smoked 'em if they had 'em,
and looked woefully at the ground
mentioned how he was so good to them
that he never played any, for favorites
always a mensch, and very gentle too
they all agreed he was very literate
some words got together in lines
with handkerchiefs and glistening eyes
slowly passing the paged remains
wished his epilogue another reprise
one said, how once he'd looked it up
after a very long absence of use
and prominently displayed its meaning,
written decisively, never misused
another of the first-person singular,
well-known, of worldly feminine gender
said he'd given her existence a purpose
and was someone she'd always remember
but now he's written his last retort
they've signed themselves into his book
to be given tearfully to the next-of-kin
and tucked WAY back in some closet or nook
'cause nobody much reads them anymore
no one wants to be made to recall
that words live longer than their writers
after the author is done with his scrawl

elegy: a mournful poem; a lament for the dead
eulogy: a formal expression of praise
Copyright © Goode Guy | Year Posted 2013
I'd been living for years with dysfunctional peeps
It was when, and not if, I would murder the creeps
They completely deserved it, you'd better believe
And their deaths were not hardly an item to grieve.
I decided to kill them in different ways
And I proved to myself, see, that crime really pays
I was never found out, as the years rolled on by
It was luck, and rehearsing a heartbreaking cry.
I took special delight in the irony there
That so many were fooled by emotions laid bare
It became habit-forming, and made me so proud
Turning cretins to corpses, then mourning out loud.
The dumb cops were so clueless that I felt their shame
They admitted they hadn't a culprit to blame.
But this isn't a novel in which a gumshoe
Puts the pieces together in fingering you.
So I'll bid you Adieu, Adios, and all that
And return to my Soaps as I slowly grow fat
On the funds which I pilfered by changing their wills
(Yes, I sleep well at night, I just take a few pills.)

Sasquatch; please don't follow me.
Turn away; and go.
Take your shaggy hair away.
You frighten me: you know.
Please don't growl about me,
stalking me so far.
Try to keep your distance.
I have no wish to spar.
Where have you come from?
Far; from in the bush?
Hiding from us humans:
eating swamp-like mush.
What has brought you out here
circling me from far?
Have I ticked you off,
or where your nestings are?
Here I come to shoot you.
I'll fill you full of lead.
And if it means I kill you
you'll be the proof as dead.
Wake-up sleepy Sasquatch.
I didn't mean to shoot.
I'm sorry that I shot you
and filled you full of soot.
Only now; we know you're real.
Your body final proof.
And when they stuff and mount you
we'll growl at you and woof!
Wake-up sleepy Sasquatch.
Why won't you speak as proof?
Don't make us tease and taunt you.
It's not the same to spoof.

The Final Home Coming
From where the sky meets the high seas
Talking drums rolled out endless eulogies
As we waited, with the shore's mud up to our knees
Some even did dance to the rhythm - no apologies
The mangrove flanked aquatic expanse
Its inhabitants in rapturous excitation
Announced the regattas' glorious advance
Even monkeys from trees did swing, in celebration
The colorful seven made haste to the shore
Their paddling, sequenced and synchronised
Each propelled by the muscles of twenty and four
The music, all but the drummers hypnotised
The wailing and drumming crescendos
As the casket is hoisted by each pall bearer
Threnodies and praise songs devoid of innuendos
Rent the air, from those to whose hearts he was dearer
Each relative, the other did strive to outdo
And to this illustrious son, give for at least once
With one good deed, all transgressions undo
Impressing the dead - the mind of a dunce
Priests did read Christian verses and made recitations
His soul, confused and standing with arms akimbo
As witch doctors also did chant incantations
Knew not which way led to Heaven, Hell or Limbo
In this carnival of his final journey home
He'd also sailed the metaphysical realm
Maybe, on tranquil seas that do not rage and foam
His first and last without control of the helm

The Binger streets are empty,
The Mayor's mansion sits alone.
When God remembered Thy son,
He summoned Big H home.
His giving heart stopped beating,
Within an April day.
His memories continue on,
For hmmm...is what he'd say.
For the spirit of his giving,
Was the community's best ally.
Then God requested his council,
For the meetings in the sky.
The golden life he lived,
Was eulogized by the reverend.
God promoted his giving soul,
To be the Mayor of Heaven.
In memory of Howard 'Big H' Taylor
for his giving heart and warm friendship
to the community of Binger Ok.

For those of you who hope to die.
Those who would be dead.
Those who seek the afterlife
yet scoff at daily bread.
I understand explicitly;
that you should live for worse.
That you know lifes uncertainties
and life's to be a curse.
In hopes of having everything
to pray and pray for death.
I wish you only happiness
to stop and take your breath.

There is a place of perfect peace;
a place of joy and full release,
where wars and prejudice shall cease..
Where peace and purity increase.
There is a place of righteous rest...
A river free from life's tempest.
A fruitful field without a pest;
A place where sin cannot molest.
There is a place of great relief,
where Jesus is the King and Chief...
A kingdom safe, there's not a thief;
where love and light are never brief.
There is a place of comfort sweet;
the home where we will Jesus meet...
Angels and mortal throng the street;
we shall all meet at Jesus' feet.
There is a place beyond the sky;
where we shall live and never die.
No pain, no strain; we will not cry.
All saints shall rejoice by and by...
Will I find you there my dear friend?
Let not this world cause you to bend.
When mortal glories shall fade and end,
will you to this great place ascend?

A thousand vents for blowing grease
the burger bleeds and trickles.
The stove tops way of frying meat
to sell their grease and pickles.
A greasy slab to clot your blood.
The hamburger's inflection.
A special sauce to fatten up
the liver from protection.
A heart attack to fear aloud
you come to feel the hurt.
Your senses blind to feeling pain
your swearing has to blurt.
A paramedic standing by
with paddles out to shock.
The ventilator turned on low
in case you start to gawk.
A hospital for calculating
service for your wealth.
but don't forget the morgue is there
and that could mean your health.
Golden curls are found where diamonds sleep
Glittering golden curls be the lady's crown
She knows the seraphim and the secrets they keep
And now she can create a smile from a frown
A twinkle follows wherever she may tread
And yes, her hair will forever glow
Because of her everything in the world should be painted red
And she requires no rainbow ribbons nor bow
She should have been born of royalty or a queen
I cannot find the loom on which her locks were spun
Helping humanity is her baby she coddles with care
Protecting all from rain, heat and a blazing sun
This is a princess with flesh so fair
And as to competitors the lady has none
No god could replicate the exact color of her hair
And she's lucky to have it, but her husband is the truly lucky one!

"Shall we dance," the lady asked ever so politely
And oh how the lady danced ever so lightly
It was as if she hovered an inch above the floor
And I never enjoyed dancing with a lady more
I begged the band to belabor the point
For it was the music the woman would anoint
She baptized the band like sanctified oil
And to the lady all of us became forever loyal
She took to the tile, a temptress, my muse
And when she asked for more no man could refuse
The brass played with class while the flute wasn't mute
And her elegance was a fact God Himself couldn't refute
My eyes beheld the majestic majesty of grace
And simply holding the lovely lady made my heart race
She danced me into a dream of loveliness and lace
While the band grew jealous of what was in my embrace
Her gracefulness begot beauty and grandeur so bright
While the vocalist sang something about undying delight
But then I heard four words that dimmed every light
When the M.C. announced 'this is the final dance of the night"

THIS COTTAGE IS CURRENTLY BEING RENTED LONG TERM AT LEAST UNTIL MAY 2018 AND IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR SHORT TERM RENTALS UNTIL THAT TIME. This is a furnished 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom stand alone cottage at the International Colony Club. Sleeps up to 8. (6 adults max but up to 8 including kids). The ICC is a tranquil cottage condominium complex located in Kaanapali. The ICC has lush landscaping which is continually manicured. The ICC has 44 separate cottages on 10 acres. This gives you great privacy with comfortable accommodations while still being close to the activities in Kaanapali. Our cottage is situated to have parking 40 feet away. The beach is a 10 minute walk away. There are 2 pools on the grounds. This is the place we stay when we come to Maui so we keep it nice. About the cottage: There is one king bed and 2 queen beds in the 3 bedrooms. In addition, there is a queen sleeper in the sitting area. Each bed has a memory foam mattress (if you don't like memory foam mattresses, this may not be the place for you). Each of the beds have 'dust mite/bed bug covers' so you can be assured of comfort against the critters. The new spacious kitchen has new cabinets, granite, new appliances and is fully stocked with plates, utensils, pots and pans etc. So for those looking to cook and eat at home rather than spending a fortune at restaurants, you will be right at home. The living room has all new furniture and a 50' LCD TV with a DVD player in case you get bored with the blue water, greenery and warm sun. This cottage allows larger groups to still have their own privacy. We would like to keep the rents relatively low so people can enjoy Maui as we do without going broke. We just ask to please take good care of the cottage. Otherwise future rates may need to rise to cover costs. The following is mandated by Hawaiian Law to be included in this rental listing. Condo is owned by Brian Costleigh, LLC. Hawaii Tax ID number W46632026-01. All rentals go through the owner. However, our local on-island Maui contact for issues which may arise during your stay is Carol St. John, (707) 843-6527. Thank you. Brian Costleigh.
If you are looking for a cost effective but real nice, spacious stand alone cottage in a quiet location but still in Kaanapali and close enough to the business of Kaanapali to be convenient. This place is for you. If you desire to be in the thick of the craziness in the center of Kaanapali, or if you want staff to cater to your needs or you wish to mortgage your house to stay there, then you really need to look elsewhere. We previously owned at the Maui Eldorado for the same reason, but we bought at the International Colony Club since they were tranquil stand alone cottages which feels more like a home rather than a condo.
The rooms are exactly as you see in the photos provided. Nicely updated home and one of only a few three bedroom units in this resort. The front bedroom has a bit more road noise from the highway, but this generally not all night (just during the rush hours). Everything you could possibly need is just 5 minutes away. Grocery shopping and great restaurants just a 5 minute drive away in Lahaina (Do try to get to Bubba Gumps for a spectacular meal while sitting at the open shutter windows where water is splashing directly below you while the sun sets...couldn't ask for a better location and meal). Really appreciated the convenience of the public beach within a 5 minute walk (parking is always at a premium on the public beaches so this was invaluable). One downside of staying in Kaanapali is the highway from the airport. Mostly single lane in both directions for about 40 miles and on weekends can be VERY slow (took us 1.25 hours on a Friday night to travel from the airport to the cottage). The house is very well stocked if you like to do your own cooking (the only thing that was missing was a bar-b-que grill brush for cleaning :)). We made good use of the beach chairs and beach towels supplied. Only found that the towels for showering and dish clothes were a bit scarce for our 7 day stay (we had 6 adults in our party). The gardens are beautiful, but the resort itself is showing its age in terms of style only though. The pool, just a 15 second walk out the back, was also very clean and a comfortable temperature (maybe even a bit warmer than the ocean was) but still, the lanai on the cottage was very private for enjoying the cooling evenings. Only potential downside for those that are squeamish is the fact that there are gecko's everywhere. They are relatively harmless, but we did find that one found its way into the house, but was only seen once and then never again. Would definitely rent here again. Owner was really good about supplying information in a timely manner and seems to be really interested in improving his guest stay. ENJOY!
Our family of 8 did a 4 island vacation in Hawaii this year. When asked which house that we rented was their favorite, the overwhelming vote was for this house. It is a very quiet place but just a block away from the main highway and all the attractions. It is on beautifully landscaped grounds with other cottages. The pool is just up a few stairs, but is blocked from view by the landscaping. You really get the impression that you are in your own private piece of paradise. There is tons to do right near the cottage, including many great snorkeling beaches, shopping, restaurants and luaus. We would recommend this property to anyone who wants to stay in Kaanapali. It was alos one of the more reasonably priced houses we rented.
