FLYWHEEL NOISE or WHAT????
Sorry, in a rush and have not looked at all of the threads yet.
JUst bought a 1999 FORD F-250 with a 139-k miles. 7.3L Powerstroke, automatic tranny 2 wheel drive. Truck runs and drives GREAT, little to NO blow-by but it has a noise that comes and goes all the time. Sounds like tin or something. When it is making noise I can raise the rpms just a little and it goes away, same with it in gear I can idle it up to around 900rpms in gear and the noise goes. Was thinking flywheel cracked, does this sound right??? |

hopefully its not what happend to my truck! i had a 97 cummins auto trans it was doing the same thing when i droped the tranny we found out that the flywheel was hitting the back of the engine bay we tought it was just a bent fly wheel, but i put a new one in but still same problem.. later found out that one of my main bearings was shot and it was causing my crankshaft to move about a 32nd of an inch, causing my fly wheel to hit the back of my engine bay. but it would only do it in gear! hopefully ur truck doesnt have the same problem but you should have it check out! let me know if you have any other ?s
hope this helps! good luck!! |
Mine is fixed now... Ended up being the TC. Someone already installed and new flywheel trying to fix the noise. Replaced the TC with an upgraded triple disc. TC and all is great. Just taking alittle getting used to the different converter.
Next week will be 4" turbo back exhaust, air intake and either my TS chip or my Quadzilla, have not made up my mind yet. Might try both and see which I like best since they was both free. Last edited by texasstroker; 07-07-2011 at 09:15 PM. |

Media Campaign to Increase Awareness of Homelessness
On Thursday, January 12 at 1 p.m. ET, the Alliance will host a webinar to launch a national media campaign to raise awareness about homelessness. The campaign will occur in conjunction with the release of a new Alliance report with national and state data on homelessness, economic indicators of homelessness, and the demographic drivers of homelessness. Click here to register.
Please note that this webinar was originally scheduled for January 16. Due to scheduling conflicts, the webinar has been moved to January 12. During the webinar, presenters will summarize the key findings of the report and discuss strategies for approaching reporters.
Earlier this year, the Alliance worked with its local partners to get dozens of media stories in local and national papers across the country as part of the release of a similar report, The State of Homelessness in America 2011.

Updated: Jul 25, 2012 6:39 PM
TUCSON - Some survivors and family members from the January 8th shooting are calling for a plan of action against gun violence.
They're joining "Mayors Against Illegal Guns" for a national campaign that kicked off Wednesday.
A full page ad in USA TODAY asks President Barack Obama and his opponent Republican Mitt Romney to present their plans to end the violence.
It said: "Another mass shooting in America, another moment in silence, but will the moment ever end?
It goes on to say: "Our hearts ache for Aurora. We know the wounds they have suffered. We remember the kind words that our elected officials had for us, but we have seen their moment of silence stretch into 18 months of inaction.
We demand action.
Every day, 34 more Americans are murdered with a bullet; three Aurora massacres every single day."
The devastation of January 8th still echoes in their minds. "It's devastating. It's something that will stay with you forever that will make you shake and make your gut wrench for the rest of your life," said Nancy Bowman.
For Bowman, it started as a trip to the grocery store, but when she heard the gunfire, she rushed to render aid to the victims.
"When you see helpless innocent people slaughtered by somebody who gets a hold of an automatic weapon and decides to take aim and start shooting," said Bowman.
Bill Badger was among those wounded.
"You would like to see something good come out of such a tragic event as this," said Badger.
That's why gun control is so important to Bowman and Badger.
Experiencing first-hand how violent guns can be has made them passionate about the "demand a plan" campaign.
"There are people who should be prohibited from having guns and those laws are on the books and we should be enforcing those," said Bowman.
They believe everyone should go through a background check and anyone prohibited from buying a gun should go in the database.
They also strongly believe there should be a ban on assault rifles.
"Why should anyone need a 100 round clip?" asked Bowman. "The only reason to have a 100 round clip is to slaughter people."
And with the full page ad in USA TODAY, they hope lawmakers will spring into action.
"Do something to prevent this from happening time after time after time like this where these innocent people are hurt," said Badger.
There is a petition people can sign to join these survivors' efforts.
That petition can be found here: www.DemandAPlan.org
The letter in the ad is addressed to President Obama and Governor Romney.
No response from their camps yet.
We also reached out to the National Rifle Association.
This is their statement: "Every US citizen feels pain for the victims of Tucson and Aurora. Simply 'demanding' a plan to stop madmen from committing heinous acts of barbarism will solve nothing. One look at the perpetrators of each of these incidents reveals that there may be something wrong with the mental health system in the US and maybe that is something that should be examined. Claiming that more gun control will do anything to stop these incidents is naive, we have simply to look at the recent mass shooting in Norway, where there is very strict gun control, to see that. "

Viewing post #439189 by Maridell
You are viewing a single post made by Maridell in the thread called Puzzles Oh My!.
First of all: cup of coffee here to read the latest...and nicely surprised to see the yoga database featured. To anyone one that checks it out, may I suggest the advanced search and see how easy it is to pinpoint information (I hope). Now about the puzzles by Zany. I have visited the Graphics cubit before but was intimidated to "download" a puzzle. I know Zany would never steer us wrong...but I was not sure what to expect. Well today I went for it (cuz I know I can trust you all) and downloaded a puzzle (the mad cat!). Sooo easy to download...I just saved it to my computer and then went back to open it. Waa Laa, the puzzle was there and ready to go...now I just need an easier puzzle!!! :rofl: Last but not least - thanks for all you do Lee Anne. |

I forgot to mention before that I have been interviewed for a column in the October 2013 issue of Tourism Unbound – interviewed by daughter Alice Walsh.
I spoke about my experiences in Chiang Khan and Nan that I have written about previously. I was reminded about this because I have just been asked to write an article for the magazine Souvenir, which is going to be published and presented at the marketing conference in Noida I have been invited to attend next month.

TriCo Bancshares Announces Legal Settlement
TriCo Bancshares (NASDAQ: TCBK) (the "Company"), announced today that its principal subsidiary, Tri Counties Bank (the "Bank"), has entered into a tentative settlement with a former employee who filed a class action lawsuit against the Bank in the Superior Court of California, Kern County on behalf of herself and a putative class of current and former Bank employees serving as assistant branch managers seeking undisclosed damages, alleging that the Bank improperly classified its assistant branch managers as exempt employees under California laws. The lawsuit alleges claims for: failure to pay overtime compensation; failure to provide meal periods; failure to provide rest periods; failure to provide accurate wage statements; failure to provide suitable seating; declaratory relief; accounting; and unfair business practices in violation of Business and Professions Code section 17200.
On September 26, 2012, after efforts to mediate the claim, the Bank and the former employee agreed to settle the case in an amount ranging from $2,039,500 to $2,500,000, depending primarily on the number of class participants who file claims, and pending approval by the court, including determination of the method to allocate settlement payments among current and former employees who are members of the defined settlement class, and the portion of the total settlement allocable to attorney's fees and costs to plaintiff's counsel. On September 26, 2012, the Bank recorded a $2,090,000 expense and accrued liability in anticipation of approval of this settlement by the court and estimated related payroll taxes.

Obviously none of these genuises has read much Roger Penrose ;-) http://psyche.cs.monash.edu.au/v2/psyche-2-09-chalmers.html Here's a blipvert version: "In his stimulating book Shadows of the Mind, Roger Penrose presents arguments, based on Gödel's theorem, for the conclusion that human thought is uncomputable." So, in short, no matter what process is used, no matter how blindingly fast or complex the computing machinery, it will never attain 'intelligence' or 'consciousness'. And yes, I've read and understand Dan Dennet's rebuttal, but I'm with Penrose on this one. -- ___________________________________________________________________________ Con Zymaris <conz at cyber.com.au> Level 4, 10 Queen St, Melbourne, Australia Cybersource: Australia's Leading Linux and Open Source Solutions Company Web: http://www.cyber.com.au/ Phone: 03 9621 2377 Fax: 03 9621 2477 _______________________________________________ Link mailing list Link at mailman.anu.edu.au http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link

With walk-out bay windows in the master bedroom that boast breathtaking water views, this 3,600-square-foot home is located in one of Fairfield's most popular neighborhoods.
"What differentiates this home from any other new construction is the superior craftsmanship and true attention to detail that was put into it while it was being built," said Sarah Pritchard, listing agent with Snyder & Pritchard Homes. "If something wasn't done right the first time it was taken out and re-done until it was perfect."
A grand foyer welcomes you into the newly constructed home. The living room also has a bay window with views of Long Island Sound. "It has beautiful water views as well as views of Penfield Lighthouse and the lighthouse in St. Mary's," Pritchard said.
The house has an open design that creates a flowing floor plan. The kitchen has an expansive eating area, both at a table or the sitting area at the mahogany center island.
Upstairs, a master bedroom includes a master bath equipped with dual vanities and a spa-like tub.
There is also a third floor that can be easily transformed into an office or fifth bedroom.

Posted by Albert Fuchs, M.D.
I was I was going to post about a different topic today, but I could not ignore the devastation that befell Japan. The powerful earthquake and subsequent tsunami have caused destruction that is difficult to grasp. (See links below for two news articles.) The magnitude of the disaster is even more sobering when you realize that Japan is a developed modern high-tech country. Japan is extremely aware of earthquake risks and has modern building codes and frequent earthquake drills. Despite these efforts in the last 24 hours hundreds have been killed, 4 million people are without electricity, and mobile phone service and public transportation have been disrupted. I can't remember the last time that a natural disaster caused hundreds of deaths in an advanced country.
My regular readers know that I'm not one to panic. A flip through the archives will demonstrate that I'm rarely worried about whatever issue is causing the latest hand-wringing. I didn't think H1N1 flu would hurt a lot of people. I'm not worried about irradiated food, pesticides, or plastic bottles.
But natural disasters deserve our attention. Not because an earthquake of similar magnitude might happen here, but because an earthquake of similar magnitude will happen here. It's only a matter of time. We, like Japan, live on a fault line. An 8.9 magnitude earthquake in LA is likely to kill more than all the people who have ever died of pesticides in food and chemicals seeping from plastic bottles. Worse than the immediate destruction, such a disaster would completely overtax our emergency response systems. Paramedics, police, fire fighters, and emergency rooms would immediately have too few resources to respond to too many emergencies.
Put simply, you and your family for at least a few days would be on your own. This deserves some panic, but panic after the disaster will not be very helpful. In this case panic before the disaster is essential. Another name for that is preparedness.
The CDC (link below) has a very sensible list of suggestions for preparing for a disaster. It suggests tips for storing non-perishable food and fresh water, assembling a kit of emergency supplies, and making an emergency plan with your family.
So please take a look at the CDC recommendations and schedule a specific time to get prepared. And spare a kind thought for the wounded, the missing, the homeless and the bereaved in Japan.

Correction added March 17, 2011:
Above I wrote "I can't remember the last time that a natural disaster caused hundreds of deaths in an advanced country." Of course, that's boneheaded. My friend Bob C. reminded me that in 2005 Hurricane Katrina killed over 1,800 people in the US. I appreciate the correction.
Important legal mumbo jumbo:

Black Swamp Heritage Articles
Bill Oliver
17 February 2002
Vol. 1, Issue: #7
ISSN: pending
Good Evening from the Black Swamp of NWoHIo,
Tomorrow we celebrate President's Day. When I was a tad
of a lad
we had February 12th and February 22nd to observe the
of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. Former
President. Nixon, in 1971 proclaimed one single federal
holiday, the Presidents' Day, to be observed on the
third Monday of February. This to honor ALL past
presidents of the United States of America.
There are two states which claim the honor of being the
"Mother of
Presidents": Virginia and Ohio. Virginia lays claim to
American Presidents. They are George Washington,
Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, John Tyler,
Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor and Woodrow Wilson.
Ohio lays claim to William Henry Harrison, Ulysses
Simpson Grant,
Rutherford Birchard Hayes, James Abram Garfield,
Harrison, William McKinley, William Howard Taft, and
Gamaliel Harding.
If you noticed both Virginia and Ohio lay claim to
William Henry
Harrison. Since there is plenty of material, both in
books and on
the WWWeb, I leave it to the reader to form their own
mind to the
justification of both states. So, enough to say that
William Henry
Harrison was the only President to study to become a
doctor. It is
interesting to see how and where careers take people.
George Washington's birthday, by today's calendar,
falls on the
22nd of February 1732; however, by the old style
calendar in effect
at that time, it fell on the 11th of February. At any
rate, the holiday
was first celebrated in the year 1796, the last year of
his presidency, and by the early years of the 19th
century the holiday had taken a firm root in the
American life.
Besides Birthnight Balls, speeches and receptions there
was much
"revelry" in taverns "throughout the land". I wonder
why they
made the universal date on Mondays rather than Fridays;
then one
wouldn't have to get up the next morning to go to work.
I believe it was Sidney Harris who said "things I
know if I hadn't opened my mail." To misquote: "things
I wouldn't
know if I hadn't opened the book."
For our family Valentine's Celebration I was given a
copy of
William D Speck's new book, "Images of America, Toledo,
History in Architecture, 1835 1890". I certainly do
Imagine being told by your mother that you were born
with snow
on the bed and that the stars could be counted "through
the holes in
the roof."
Did you know that every one in Toledo picked up their
own mail at
the Post Office at Madison and St. Clair Streets from
1853 to 1864,
when mail delivery was "instituted". It was said that
this would
spare the families of soldiers from having to read
letters in public.
If you like to eat in historic places, the OLIVER
HOUSE, which
officially closed in 1919, has been converted into a
brewery and
restaurant, with loft space apartments. According to a
call, the restaurant prices begin at $30.00 per
person. The Brewery
is much more moderately priced.
The OLIVER HOUSE construction began in 1853. To serve
overnight guests it had innovative amenities-of-the-day
included limited indoor plumbing, gas lights, steam
heat and you
didn't have to share a bed with a stranger.
Land speculator and investor, Major William Oliver,
built the hotel
in a simple "A" shape with wings branching off an oval
lobby. It
has 160 rooms. There was a dining room which served a
"professional business" lunch.
As mentioned, the OLIVER HOUSE had gas light. The
Hotel had
to "teach" patrons how to "blow" out the flame lest
they "wake up
dead" in the morning.
Due to the "name is the same", I collect references,
reports, and
stories concerning the Brevet Major William Oliver.
Please contact
me <> if you have something
about him
to share.
The "uptown" moved further away from the OLIVER HOUSE
location and the "uptown" business folks felt that a
hotel was
needed closer to the business "hub". The BOODY HOUSE
was built at Madison and St. Clair Streets. This was
named for a
large investor and railroad magnate, Azariah Boody and
contained 150 rooms, sporting emenities of "hot and
cold" running
water and the first elevator between Chicago and New
York cities.
It also had a bathroom and "water closet" on every
floor. Their
famous entree was "baked beans and ham". Toledo's
telephone was tested from the BOODY HOUSE.

Previously on Jersey Shore: It was an even numbered season, and so it wasn't in New Jersey and it was also disappointing (Jersey Shore is like the mirror image of the Star Trek movies that way). The gang all went to Italy, Snooki became even more horrible than I thought she could be, and I lamented the lack of footage of the actual beautiful parts of Florence, one of my favorite cities in the world. Also, I started a brief career recapping "Ringer," and then I quit when I kept falling asleep during the show (even though I still love SMG).
And now on Jersey Shore: We weirdly pick up back in Italy. Wait, did the US decide they're not allowed back in the country? Well done, State Department! Oh, my bad, they're actually going home. Pauly laments the fact that he cannot get a haircut or a tan in Italy; you know how Italy is filled with pale-skinned hippies. Vinny says he thinks they've done all they can do in Florence. Yep, one day of sightseeing and 39 days of drinking, that seems about right.
So our little band of misfits land in the US and go straight to the Jersey Shore. Seriously, they go right from the airport to the shore house. Is this show their full-time job now? There's roommate drama on the van to Seaside Heights when we learn that nobody wants to room with Mike anymore. Now that scene in the previous season finally makes sense, since it only came three or four days before they were actually going back to the shore house. I never thought I'd be puzzling over Jersey Shore chronology. My mother must be so proud (but there's no way she reads these). So who finally rooms with the Situation? Ronnie and Sam, the same people who always room with him. Drama solved! (That's what you're supposed to do with drama, right?)
To celebrate the return to the house, Snooki drinks out of a pickle jar. There's nothing metaphorical about that sentence. She picks up the pickle jar, opens it up, tips it back, and drinks the brine out of it. She's a published author, everybody. After that grossness, the crew goes to the Shore Store and their boss, whose name I refuse to learn, invites them out to a bar the next night. This doesn't at all seem set up by MTV. It is totally natural. The gang goes to ride the rides of the boardwalk, thus making already disgusting sketchy things even worse.
The next morning, the guys go out to GTL because they've been so deprived in Italy. If you're reading Jersey Shore recaps, I assume you know what the next three scenes entail, so I'm not going to explain it to you. Jenny and Snooki lament their missing boyfriends (is Snooki still going out with him?), while the boys get haircuts. Everybody talks about Vinny's new haircut for fifteen hours, give or take. This is really MTV's number one show?
Anyway, the cast makes it to the totally-real boss bar night and all their family and friends are there. Jionni, whose dumb name I keep having to spell, is there, so I guess he's back in, and so is Snooki's friend Ryder, and I'm forced to wonder why it couldn't have been Ryder as a part of the cast. She's so much better than Deena. Uncle Nino is there too, and I would make fun of him, but there's a better than average chance that he could have me killed, so I'll refrain. Ron refers to Uncle Nino as "the ultimate creep," which is like me referring to someone as sarcastic.
But look who's here: it's Mike's friend, "The Unit." We've heard so much about him last season and now we're finally getting a glimpse of him. It's like how they foreshadowed the end of Buffy season 5 at the end of Buffy season 3, except much, much dumber. Snooki, Ryder, the Situation and the Unit have a conversation that mostly consists of the Unit and Snooki yelling and Mike and Ryder saying "stop" about one gajillion times. Snooki is looking more and more guilty in the "did she sleep with Mike" question.
Everybody keeps talking about whether or not the Unit is going to talk to Jionni about Mike and Snooki and it's the same stupid discussion you had junior year of high school about who cheated with whom, except it's with people who are in their mid to late twenties and are on my television. They go back to the house, and EVERYBODY KEEPS TALKING ABOUT THE SAME THING! Mike's ready to tell everybody what's up, but Snooki outsmarts him by going to bed with her boyfriend. Tactical genius, that Snooki.
As burgers are being cooked outside, Deena creepily glares at Ryder and Pauly making out. Then when Pauly takes Ryder back to his bed, Deena comes into the room and sits at the foot of the bed for a few minutes, and then leaves. It is as creepy and awkward as it sounds. Pauly seems to have some odd moral conundrum about not sleeping with Ryder, but then he gets over it really quickly. Way to answer the hard questions, Pauly.
The next morning, we're STILL harping on the moronic Snooki-Mike deal. Then Snooki gives a half-assed apology to the Unit and nobody's going to blab about anything. Drama solved, again! Meanwhile, Vinny displays actual human emotions and realizes he misses his family and that being on this show might not be the key to happiness. Ronnie, of course, thinks he should man up and suggests they get a stripper or hooker. Ronnie totally misses his calling; he should really be a psychiatrist.
That night the gang goes to Aztec and it's the same club scene we've always seen, but this time with more Deena-like girls. Pauly and Vinny ditch Aztec and go home and crash, but everybody else stays. Jionni buys Mike a bunch of drinks and, in return, Mike calls Jionni, "the nicest guy I ever met." Snooki asks why everybody says that to Jionni; because he's dating you, Snooks. Mainly because of that. At the house, Vinny is in a real funk and he wants to leave the house. Ronnie, of course, refers to it as "spazzing out." He's a kind soul.
- During the entire episode, Mrs. DLW and I quoted a recent Beavis & Butthead episode, repeating, "I don't care for Deena."
- Snooki makes fun of the Unit because his name is "The Unit." Let me repeat: SNOOKI makes fun of somebody because of his nickname.
- Was Sammi's only contribution this episode her line about Mike possibly having "gay tendencies?" If so, that was too much Sammi for me.
- If you enjoy the guys' mockery of Ryder, an attractive woman who slept with them, stop reading my recaps. You're gross.
- Ronnie accuses Vinny of "overthinking" things. I imagine that for Ronnie, any thinking is overthinking.
All right, take a shot of pickle juice, make up a stupid nickname for yourself, and tell me what you thought of the episode below. After you've finished tanning.

This week's list: Upper Moreland Library's Favorite Picks: Programs, services, additions, projects and more
- Margie Peters, Managing Director
Peters is most excited about the library publishing a professionally printed book of writing and artwork created by local students called "The Carousel" and the creation of a new young adult space in the library specifically for teens.
- Jim Moran, Children's Librarian
Moran is most excited about TumbleBooks, a subscription for online picture books and educational games for children. Now, with an app for iPhone and iPad, you can have books for your kids on-the-go.
- Adam Cole, Public Services Librarian
Cole said that his favorite programs are the film series. The library has
Classic Movie Tuesdays, just like it sounds—classic movies on the second Tuesday of each month—and Sunday Cinema, where the library shows foreign and independent movies on the third Sunday of the month. Cole loves movies, and loves being able to share good cinema with library patrons. Having Dr. Maurizio Giammarco of Temple University at the library for Sunday Cinema gives patrons a chance to discuss the movie with an expert.
- Julie Watson, Public Services Librarian
Watson likes being able to get downloadable audio books and eBooks from the library—for free!
- Katie Fitzpatrick, Head of Technical Services
One of Fitzpatrick's favorite services to recommend to patrons is the Learning Express Library.

- Karen Wilton, Circulation Manager
Wilton likes that the library has a great selection of graphic novels and
manga. Lots of people don't know that the library has graphic novel, comic and manga collections in all the age groups: juvenile, young adult and adult.
- Alex King, Library Assistant
King is proud of the library's newest story times: "Sleepytime Stories with Alex," where parents and children can come visit the library in jammies or with a stuffed animal for stories that help them relax and get ready for bedtime, and "Action Stories," where kids who don't enjoy a traditional story time can enjoy books, songs and play that incorporate lots of activity and movement.
- Cathy Gilmore, Acting Director
Gilmore's favorite things about the library are new collections that the
library has begun specifically because patrons asked, including rental movies (a second copy of the hottest new releases with no waiting) Book-Club-in-a-Bag kits (with 8 to 12 copies of a book, plus discussion questions), and juvenile and adult video games.

Corvallis 104.3 FM • Hood River 91.9 FM • Portland 90.7 FM
Electricity consumer advocates, joined by commercial salmon fishermen, Native American tribes and conservation groups today called on customers of Pacific Power to join the struggle to remove four Klamath dams – and save themselves some money.
Pacific Power is a subsidiary of Pacificorp. The company has refused a proposal to remove four dams on the Klamath River, instead putting the cost of an upgrade on reatepayers.
Twenty-five thousand people gathered last weekend at fort Benning, Georgia, for the 18th annual vigil to close the School of the Americas – now known as the Western Hemispheric Institute for Security Studies.
The school has been documented to be a training ground for central and south American military officials, many of whom have engaged in torture and attacks on civilians after being trained at the School by U.S. Military officials.
The city of Portland has recently implemented a youth commission to advise the city on matters important to youth. KBOO's Eoin (Owen) Bastable went to City Hall to find out more:

KBOO's Andy Seaton has the Story.
On Friday a young college student was arrested when she went to the Department of Motor Vehicles in Hillsboro to renew her drivers license.
KBOO reporter Linda Olson-Osterlund has more.
Another edition of the locally produced environmental series, Our Backyard, with KBOO's Edison Carder. This edition: Buy Nothing Day - idealistic gesture or is it something more?
Hosted by Tom Becker, today's Old Mole features a conversation between Bill Resnick and anthropologist Kamran Asdar Ali about the recent history and current situation in Pakistan. Jan Haaken interviews Portland State Psychology student David Hall about his work on Native American concepts of sustainability. Thabiti Lewis shows us how little we learn about American gangsters from the film "American Gangster." Tom Becker reads what Bob Dylan's retelling of the story of Joe Hill. And Bill Resnick interviews members of the Custodians and Food Service Workers Union who are fighting for a just wage and benefits with the Portland Schools.
Responding to the rash of recent bike collisions and injuries Portland's bike community stood in solidarity underneath the Hawthorne bridge this past Saturday.
KBOO's Michael Ianello spoke with Jonathan Maus from Bike Portland.org about the rally and what Portlanders can do to increase respect on the cities roads.
On Saturday the United nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released it's new report on Global Warming.
The UN panel, which shared the Nobel Peace prize with Al Gore , said there is no doubt, Global warming is happening and people all over the earth are feeling it's effects.

Army vs. Navy | From left: Valentino, Band of Outsiders, Dries Van Noten, Marni, Dior Homme and Tommy Hilfiger
The program for the 1942 Army vs. Navy game
AS SPORT RIVALRIES go, the football game between the U.S. Military Academy and the U.S. Naval Academy is one of the oldest, dating back to 1890. The runways of New York, Milan and Paris are spiritually about as far as you can get from West Point and Annapolis, but a similar face-off is happening in fashion this spring. Labels such as Dries Van Noten and Valentino fought with stylish camo and khaki, while the likes of Dior Homme and Marni set sail with peacoats and stripes. Which side will stylish men choose? "You see guys who consider themselves classic wearing things with a nautical bent," said Josh Peskowitz, men's fashion director at Bloomingdale's, "while Army has always fascinated the streetwear community. But designers have been using it on the runway for a couple seasons, so you will see a high-end customer wearing army-inspired gear."

skies all empty aching blue. I meant
years. I meant all of them with you.
Though the word may be occasionally used unfairly (for example, to describe a physically unattractive guy's genuinely respectful attempt at striking up a conversation), "creepy" serves a vital function. No other word is as effective as describing when a man has crossed a woman's boundary; no other word forces a man to reflect on how his behavior makes other people feel. A guy can disprove accusations of being weak by displaying strength (often in foolish ways.) But a guy can only disprove the charge of creepiness by fundamentally altering his behavior to be more genuinely respectful of women.
This, of course, is why some guys hate the word so much; it forces men to reflect carefully about how they make women feel.
What men mean when they talk about their "crazy" ex-girlfriend is often that she was someone who cried a lot, or texted too often, or had an eating disorder, or wanted too much/too little sex, or generally felt anything beyond the realm of emotionally undemanding agreement. That does not make these women crazy. That makes those women human beings, who have flaws, and emotional weak spots. However, deciding that any behavior that he does not like must be insane– well, that does make a man a jerk.
And when men do this on a regular basis, remember that, if you are a woman, you are not the exception. You are not so cool and fabulous and levelheaded that they will totally get where you are coming from when you show emotions other than "pleasant agreement."
When men say "most women are crazy, but not you, you're so cool" the subtext is not, "I love you, be the mother to my children." The subtext is "do not step out of line, here." If you get close enough to the men who say things like this, eventually, you will do something that they do not find pleasant. They will decide you are crazy, because this is something they have already decided about women in general.
Lady, You Really Aren't "Crazy" (via sparkamovement)
If a man describes his ex to you as "crazy," it shouldn't make you feel better or special. You should probably worry.

Hot answers tagged type-conversion
Instead of meddling with Martin's answer any further, I'll add the rest of my findings regarding POWER() here.
Hold on to your knickers.
First, I present to you exhibit A, the MSDN documentation for POWER():
POWER ( float_expression , y )
Is an expression of type float or of a type that can ...
It seems that despite the implication in BOL that the left hand operand will be implicitly cast to float that this is not the case. The output of POWER() is cast to the type of the left hand operand, which is DECIMAL if you use 10.0. Using an explicit float works fine.
SELECT POWER(1e1, 38);
SELECT POWER(CAST(10 as float), 38.0);
There are two ways to typecast in Postgres:
You either do it the SQL standard way:
select cast(3.141593 as bigint);
or you could use the Postgres-specific cast operator: ::
select (3.141593 :: bigint);
You might also want to consider the various rounding functions.
As an alternative to RDC, I'd just skip converting the data types in SSIS and explicitly cast them as nvarchar in my source query.
In your source query (and you are using a source query and not simply selecting the table in the drop down), explicitly cast things to an appropriate n(var)char length.
Instead of
, ...
Microsoft reserves the right to change the binary representation of the build-in data types like DATETIME. So if you do an
INSERT dbo.table(binaryColumn)VALUES(CAST(GETDATE() AS VARBINARY(8)));
and then you upgrade SQL Server or even do an SP apply
SELECT CAST(binaryColumn AS DATETIME) FROM dbo.table;
might get you a different date then the one ...
Can you be more specific on "quite large"? In general you're right, you shouldn't just 'do it live' in production with any change. Do you have any kind of QA or test environment you can do a run on first?
This isn't the most sexy ninja one line approach but you could
Add a new bit column
Issue updates setting the new column = if( ...
You could also add this as a computed column or make it part of a view, so that you don't have to perform the calculation over and over in every query.
As a computed column:
ALTER TABLE dbo.whatever ADD dt
AS CONVERT(DATETIME, STUFF(STUFF(STUFF(col,9,0,' '),12,0,':'),15,0,':'), 120);
Since the calculation is deterministic, it can be persisted and/or ...
Do some string manipulation to get your string to the format YYYYMMDD HH:mm:SS and you can cast/convert to datetime.
Something like this:
declare @S varchar(50)
set @S = '20120606122012'
select cast(left(@S, 8)+' '+substring(@S, 9, 2)+':'+substring(@S, 11, 2)+':'+substring(@S, 13, 2) as datetime)
You can add a new column and manually update it as @gbn suggested, but now you have to constantly keep this column up to date with insert/update triggers or some other mechanism. Borrowing @gbn's guesses on table/column names, here are a couple of different approaches that don't require constant maintenance.
Computed Column
ALTER TABLE dbo.MyTable ADD ...
Natively, there is no way to do that. But you can download - Replacing Data Conversion Component for SSIS from Codeplex and do that in one shot.
More info can be found here.
No, there's no magic or hand-waving here. It'd be great if synonyms, say, applied to types, but that is not the case. If you want to make these columns first-class citizens, you'll need to change the table. You can automate this to some degree, though I won't post code to help with this unless you specify what you mean exactly by "manually" and why you think ...
As I understand it now, you need the entity framework to see the table as having a NOT NULL BINARY_DOUBLE, but the data needs to be/is stored in a NOT NULL NUMBER. This is a problem when using a view because the view does not pass the NOT NULL attribute through when it contains a CAST.
Your options include the two Alex Poole +1 mentioned on SO (1. Virtual ...
I have an interesting idea. How about letting mysql decide the best datatype ???
Here is an example using PROCEDURE ANALYSE()
Also, I have some sample data of lengths 0,10, and 16
use test
drop table if exists worktable;
create table worktable
id int not null auto_increment,
chdata varchar(16),
primary key (id)
) ENGINE=MyISAM;
insert into ...
According to the SQL Standard, numeric values may only be compared with numeric values e.g. an INTEGER value can be compared with a NUMERIC value by coercing both to NUMERIC values.
It sounds like MySQL is not compliant with Standards in this regard. To be fair, most SQL product exhibit similar implicit type coercions and it is encumbent on users to avoid ...
There is a way.
Given a table t and a function f() that returns an anonymous record that would match that table type:
CREATE TABLE t (id int, d date);
You cannot just cast the anonymous record, since a column definition list is required for
SELECT * FROM f()
Quoting the manual on the SELECT command:
If the function has been defined as returning ...
For your request:
sorted by alphabets and then by numeric values
I am assuming (deriving from your sample data), that only the first letter should be treated as text to sort by (easy to adapt).
Further assuming that you want to sort by the first number in the string next (digits only).
To break ties with trailing characters I finally order by the ...
Tough task.
I would assume the worst and create:
strings(x) as nvachar(x)
Long as BigInt
Dec(x,x) as Dec(x,x)
After that you'll have to look at the data in each column individually and make decisions on your findings.
Dates might be stored as strings. (MS is guilty of this as well in TypePerf.)
I think the best for your situation is to use the COPY ... TO with one file for each table, and use pg_dump only for schema.
With COPY you can do change the output format (including NULL), example:
COPY foo TO '/path/to/foo.output' WITH NULL '<your null>';
You can even use CSV or other format (I don't know what MSSQL recognizes).
To automatize, ...
@MatheusOl provided a solution with COPY. I propose a couple of improvements:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_copy_all() RETURNS void AS
_sql text;
FOR _sql IN
SELECT format($$COPY %s WITH NULL '' TO '/path/to/%1$s'$$, c.oid::regclass)
FROM pg_class c
JOIN pg_namespace n ON c.relnamespace = n.oid
New "Type Conversion in Expression....." warning in SQL2012 ,to noisy to practical use
I see what you mean. While I agree that this is noise in most cases,
it is low priority for us to fix. We will look at it if we get more
feedback. For now I have closed this by design.
I will provide the boring answer until someone comes along with a better ...
I tried your script and recreated your environment completely and i didn't see any error.
Ran perfectly and created all tables and transferred all data successfully
i tried running under a sql agent job and still no error was generated
but i guess you can update your insert script by making sure the column gets converted under all conditions
You can't handle SQL exceptions within an SQL statement like you can from within PL/pgSQL.
You must write a custom function as you suggest, for example:
create function is_valid_date(text) returns boolean language plpgsql immutable as $$
return case when $1::date is null then false else true end;
exception when others then
return false;
It seems that at the moment you don't have and index on that column then I think your first considered approach is quite good but instead of changing current column values and then changing its type instead create a new column with bit data type and set its values checking the length or if its same string then by exact match after that delete the old column.

- Loud music in the bars in the evening. - Our room was supposed to look out on the fountains but it did not.
Staff at the reception,
The staff were very friendly all around the hotel
It was the food near the pool it wass't as we desired and the icecream scoops were very very little and the flys were too much
Lots of families, but as a single traveller, I loved the separate and unofficial "adult pool" with a DJ. Staff also handed out fresh fruit around the pool. Great attentive staff during breakfast.
Music from the pool DJ was too loud.
Beautiful setting. Friendly staff.
Kids club not functioning. No shops any where around to get snacks for kids.
Everything was nice. Good room, very good breakfast en you can go with the elevator to the dead sea.
The flies!!! I heard this was the season for flies! (October)
I liked big size of Hotel and its huge area. I felt it was like small country with endless various facilities. Especially I liked elevator to reach beach! It is great idea!
I just didnt like one thing - the water at the swimming pool for kids was so cold, much colder than water in pools for adults...
Large pool .almost All rooms have sea or pool view. Easy access to the pool and rooms
Staff unfriendly . U feel watched all the time . U have to keep ur towel cards with you and return them else u have to pay 10 jd for each .. we r not theifs sir!!!
Relaxing location and standard of rooms and pool facitities.
Expensive meals and poor choice of number of restaurants.
every thing was nice in the hotel
I didnt like the breakfast you have to put more main dishes and bring more staff
Room cleaning.
Service and eat quality in Ambrosia restsrant.
Dead Sea and the mud
it was nice experince, friendlly staff and clean place
the timing, swimming was not allowed after sunset, and restaurants close relatively early
The staff were helpful, The pool was clean and well guarded.
The facilities closes so early that forced us to leave like coffee shop and restaurants.
