Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
So the microwave will heat but the convection part will not?
did you get my response? The conversation string isn't posting on my side.
nope, I haven't yet, can you repost it?
yes is the answer to your question
ok...so the answer is?????
microwave works
ok lemme pull a diagram for you. The convection cycle will count down fine correct
what is a convection cycle? The fan does turn on when I want convection baking
this is an oven microwave combo, not a convection microwave correct?
Meaning the microwave is actually seperat from the convection oven?
Does the bake or broil or anything work?
it is a convection microwave/regular microwave on top and a convection oven/regular oven/broiler below. nothing will bake or broil
its the bottom oven that won't heat
but it all works electrically
did it finish the self clean and unlock properly?
The only common link between all those items is the board or the thermal fuse, thermal fuses do blow a LOT after self cleaning, so I would say if you hear a click after pressing bake .... would replace the thrmal fuse. The only bad news, it's on the back of the unit so you have to pull the oven and microwave together to take the case off and get to it.
that isn't easy for a novice is it?
if you have someone to help you it's only a few screws and 2 wiring connectors
but pulling the oven is a bear it probably weighs 150-220 and that is a lot to lower down to the ground for most people
Just tried turning it on and I didn't hear any click when I pressed bake
If you have no click the board is the issue, the click is the relay
that probably doesn't mean anything
Sometimes it takes up to 10 seconds for the click
but it should click even if it doesn't heat
I heard a click a couple seconds after I turned it on.
I've heard it when it was working.
ok ... thn the high limit is the issue. The thing is there is a seperat relay for bake broil and convection. Yet the high limit goes to all 3 .... what do you think is the chance 3 relays broke, or the high limit that goes to all 3 blew.... :)
You would know better than me. sounds remote
You can order from Marcone by calling at 1-888-464-2853 or through Repairclinic.com whichever is easier for you. Both appear tohave it in stock.
Never seen a board fail in that way .that is why I ask if broil or convection work ... if you have one heating the board is the issue, if none heat the thermostat is the issue
Is that in the back also
Don't self clean ever again after you replace this you have an insulation issue that caused the thermostat to fail
Just replacing the thermostat won't fix this issue
just don't self clean .... shouldn't be an issue
What's wrong with the insulation
well it could be a steel issue, or a acutal insulation problem (seperation) but since the thermostat is around 60 bucks, I wouldn't even consider trial and error to fix it so you can self clean it. If this were under warranty we would rplace the oven cavity to allow self cleaning
It's worked in the past
I'll take your advice.
Lemme know if you need anything else, just buy the thermostat, pull it out, take the back of the oven off, you can't miss the part
Dead centr of the back unit
will I get an email of this conversation
and you can come back here for free, no problems later on if you have an issue
Thanks - and someone has to fix this chat feature. Poor connectivity and I have full strength

Ashley Judd Slams the Media Over "Puffy Face" Criticism
"Ashley Judd's Puffy Face Explained" was a breaking headline in the tabloids recently. Respectable news outlets such as HuffPo and MSNBC even joined in to debate if Botox was to blame for her chubby face.
The news sparked a viral frenzy speculating how much "work she got done" along with warnings that she "better watch out" because her husband is likely "looking for his second wife." Some reporters called her a "pig" and a "cow", labelling her as fat because of the fact that she was now a size 6/8.
The most troubling fact of all is that the conversation about Ashley's face was initially broadcasted mostly by women.
Ashley replies with an intelligent and thought-provoking response. She writes that what seems like harmless commentary is really a misogynistic assault on all women.
That women are joining in the ongoing disassembling of my appearance is salient. Patriarchy is not men. Patriarchy is a system in which both women and men participate. The conversation about women happens everywhere, publicly and privately. We are described and detailed, our faces and bodies analyzed and picked apart, our worth ascertained and ascribed based on the reduction of personhood to simple physical objectification. Our voices, our personhood, our potential, and our accomplishments are regularly minimized and muted.
I applaud Ashley for having the courage to raise the dialogue about the harmful effects that such disempowering conversations have on society. However, while we can easily blame the media for perpetuating such misogynist discourse, we are equally responsible for this mindset.
Every time we tear another woman down because of her looks, every time we gather with our girlfriends to watch reality TV shows like "The Real Housewives of Vancouver" and slam the attractiveness of the cast, every time we gossip that another woman is ugly or fat, every time we participate in these seemingly "harmless" behaviours and discourses, we are a part of the vicious cycle that disempowers women. We feed it. We allow it to become normalized. We become our own worst enemy.
We may not be able to change what the media chooses to present and publish. We may not be able to stop the production of yet another trashy reality TV series. However, we need to remember that the media only continues to create what audiences continue to support. We can choose what media we consume and how we consume it. And, we can choose to participate in conversations that focus on the contributions and character of women – instead of how botched their Botox is.
We need to stop tearing down other women because they aren't skinny enough, pretty enough or young enough. If we don't stop the vicious cycle, who will?

Gum Diseases
Bleeding gum
I lost my front tooth more than 8 years ago, so when I extracted my tooth I`d put the Maryland Bonded Bridge, now I noticed my gumn right above my front tooth is bleeding and also smells bad. What do you think it can be? I kind of a little concerned. Can you say anything about that? Thanks
8 years is long time for a Maryland Bonded Bridge. You may be having food impaction underneath and may be not able to clean under the pontic area. Or some problems may be developing on adjacent teeth (decay, bone loss, etc). You have to visit a dentist.

See Diodes in Hall 3A, Booth 431
Nuremberg, Germany – February 16th, 2017 – Diodes Incorporated will be introducing a number of notable new products at Embedded World 2017 in Nuremberg, Germany, March 14-16. These include the industry's first unidirectional 1800W automotive-compliant transient voltage suppressors; 40V and 60V dual, co-packaged enhancement mode MOSFETs that are also qualified for automotive applications; and, coming from its Pericom connectivity product line, the world's first and only automotive, AEC-Q100 grade, PCIe Packet Switches.
"What better place to unveil automotive solutions than in Germany, home to some of the world's leading automobile manufacturers, and at a show that is dedicated to the design of embedded electronic systems", said Oliver Woyke, Diodes' Director of Sales for Europe, Middle East & Africa, "The combination of traditional discrete, logic, analog and mixed-signal semiconductor products with our connectivity and timing product line means Diodes is even better placed to serve the embedded market and especially the automotive industry".
Vehicle telematics and infotainment systems demand connectivity that meets both the latest communication standards and automotive reliability criteria. Representing the first-ever packet switches to be automotive-qualified to AEC-Q100 grade 3, are two members of Diodes PI7C9X2G PCI Express® 2.0 family. These parts provide 3?port/4?lane and 4?port/4?lane configurations while for non-automotive applications, such as embedded, networking and storage, Diodes is also introducing 9?port/12?lane and 16?port/16?lane versions. The automotive versions of these packet switches also have an integrated clock buffer to ease design and lower BOM cost, and feature advanced power management and support hot-plug operation.
Diodes' new transient voltage suppressor (TVS) design is uniquely capable of handling repetitive reverse avalanche pulses up to a peak pulse power dissipation of 1800W, some 20% higher than alternative surface mount component (SMC) products. Additionally, the device has been engineered to fit into a low-profile, thermally efficient PowerDI5 package that is half the height of the industry standard SMC package and has a 40% smaller PCB footprint. Qualification to AEC-Q101 supported by a PPAP (production part approval process) provides the essential high reliability and traceability required for this device's target applications in automotive infotainment, navigation and advanced driver assistance systems.
Aimed at similar automotive end-applications to the TVS devices, the latest 40V and 60V dual, co-packaged enhancement mode MOSFETs introduced by Diodes aim to minimize power losses in order to deliver cost-effective, high-efficiency power management designs. For example, when used to build a DC-DC converter using with a PWM control IC, the 60V device can achieve 95% efficiency while delivering a 5V output at a load current of 2A. Both devices are qualified to the AEC-Q101 Rev D high-reliability standard and supported by PPAP.
Diodes will be exhibiting on Booth 431 in Hall 3A, and welcomes visitors to come and find out more about these exciting new products.
Further information will also be available at http://www.diodes.com

NEW YORK – The USA Bid Committee officially announced on Friday that it has withdrawn from the bidding for the 2018 FIFA World Cup and will focus exclusively on securing the 2022 tournament.
The move had been expected for some time, given the fact that it was made clear early on that Europe would likely land the 2018 World Cup. England, Russia and joint bids by Belgium/Netherlands and Spain/Portugal are still in contention for the 2018 event.
The USA joins Australia, Japan, South Korea and Qatar for the right to host the World Cup in 2022. European countries are not in the running given FIFA's rotational policy under which the same continent cannot host two consecutive World Cup tournaments.
"We are confident this is in the best interests of the USA Bid," USA Bid Committee Chairman and U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati said in a statement.
"The Philadelphia World Cup Bid Committee wholeheartedly supports the decision of the USA Bid Committee to withdraw from the 2018 FIFA World Cup™ process and focus exclusively on the 2022 campaign," added Philadelphia Mayor Michael A. Nutter, who is a Co-Chair of Philadelphia's World Cup Bid Committee. "We are confident that this decision is in the best interest of Philadelphia and the other U.S. finalist cities working to bring the World Cup back to America. All of our regional partners remain fully committed to ensuring that, in 2022, 'The Game is in Philadelphia.'"
Since the visit by the FIFA inspection team in September, public comments by members of the USA Bid Committee indicated that the USA could opt to concentrate on the 2022 bid.
The timing of the announcement will help the FIFA Executive Committee iron out the procedural details for the final voting process at a meeting on October 28 in Zurich, Switzerland. The final vote takes place on December 2, when the winning bids for the 2018 and 2022 tournaments are announced.
"The announcement today by the USA Bid to focus solely on the 2022 FIFA World Cup is therefore a welcome gesture which is much appreciated by FIFA," FIFA Secretary General Jérôme Valcke said in a statement.

Its now official-- Bitcoin has arrived. On Friday December 7th, China questioned the cyber currency's legitimacy to operate. The currency's growing demand has effectively caused the Chinese government to go on the defensive. This less than amicable greeting has indeed slowed its massive bull run.
Yet, this recent tapering appears as more of a correction than an all out free-fall. However the mainstream banking sector and its embedded press(hacks) will likely look to drag this story on in attempts to fade the the currency's stock.
This correction may open the door for a second traunch of investors that were not only waiting for a pullback in order to jump in, but still new to the currency itself, which hasn't even begun to touch its potential market penetration.
So this may be a good time to go over its underlying structure and applications. Yes, applications-- the currency itself allows for many self executing codes--thus facilitating and even making obsolete current conceptions of exchanges, estate planning and many other financial transactions. Although, its still early governments around the world will likely react similarly to the crypto-currency in order to depress and deter its proliferation.
Bitcoin's ultimate stress test should prove to be how it maneuvers through the coming onslaught of state crackdowns and other concerted efforts stemming from the financial sector. However, concerns over its long-term viability may be overblown-- as similar, yet less complex peer to peer architectures are so diffuse that it would make it virtually indestructible.
Vitor Belfort is the clear cut number one contender in the UFC's middle weight division. This is a statement of fact. And outside of a split decision in the upcoming rematch between Weidman and Silva. There's no reason to move onto a rubber match, not only would it be pointless, but flat out boring. I'm not quite sure why the UFC is still reluctant to cash in on a title match with the 2nd scariest man (Jon Jones taking first honors) in the UFC right now.
(BELFORT V. SILVA) Anderson Silva has reigned at the top of this division for what feels like ages. His style and that of Belfort complement each other as extreme opposites. Silva's stone faced taunts coupled with his graceful finesse match up contrasts nicely against that of the explosive rapid fire, up-tempo pace that Belfort brings. It's the classic Fire and Ice scenario.
(V. WEIDMAN) Weidman and Belfort match up well as both pack heavy hands. Essentially what you have here are two hard hitting strikers that wont shy away from a slug fest.
Both matches have potential KO of the night written all over them, especially the latter.
How did Weidman skip passed Belfort to begin with?
Unlike Weidman, Belfort has made himself a household name within the middle weight division, let alone the UFC. And in all honesty I've been following the UFC and Pride since their tournament days, so seeing Weidman getting a title shot almost out of the blue, while skirting by the legitimate contenders who'd been knocking at the door for years (Bisbing, Belfort) was puzzling. This is not to say he wasn't a a legitimate opponent as he obviously proved to be much more than that, but more that he hadn't yet paid his dues for that title shot. So now you're left with a guy that if he does beat Silva again still has a long way in terms of marketing himself as a crowd drawing headliner. "It will prove to be a sort of a Weidman who??", problem.
The problem I have with all of this...
Going back to Belfort, so instead of rewarding a living legend like Belfort-- who's gone through the middle weights in a manner that rivals what Jon Jones is doing at light-heavy-- he's been cast into possible dog fights with both Lyoto Machida or Rashard Evans, who've yet to do anything at middle-weight. This is a very obvious attempt to steal his thunder.
The Machida match itself is likely to end up as a snooze fest. You'll likely see Machida rely on his world class circling ability (bicycle) to evade the Belfort's bull charges in hopes for a favourable judge's decision-- because at his current pace there is no chink in Belfort's striking and mental game to suggest anything other than this sort of outcome. Instead Machida should earn his stripes at middle weight like everyone has.
The other alternative is to snub Belfort altogether and match either Machida or one of the guys Belfort has mangled against the Middle Weight Champion, which in either outcome only goes to tarnish the sport and its matchmaking process as arbitrary and just flat out stupid.
All of this is due to two factors, Belfort's age and his use of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). As far as the age question, who cares how long Belfort reigns at the top of the middle weight division. Old school UFC fans and the many legions of Brazilian Belfort supporters would love nothing more than to see the old lion take one last victory lap before the curtain draws. A win by Belfort here could solidify the UFC's middle weight division as the one of the organizations crown jewels- rivaling the dominance of the light-heavyweight bracket-- lopsidedly ruled by Jon Jones.
The response for TRT is much more to the point, if you didn't want him as your champion why let him fight anyone to begin with, especially Knocking out all your top talent!
In summary the UFC owes it to not just Belfort, but to its fans to see this guy fight for the belt one last time, not down the road but now! Win, lose or draw, this guy has been terrorizing the middleweight division for well over a year and has already been side-stepped by Weidman himself. Give Belfort the damn fight and let the chips fall where they will.
And as a betting man, you can take it to the bank that Belfort will take the middle-weight belt.

The Miami Heat are down 2-3 in the NBA Finals. Should the Heat make it out of this series with a second consecutive Larry Obrien trophy the front office would presumably have no reason to go out and make major changes to the starting 5, however one thing that this championship run has exposed was their weakness in the paint as well as an over reliance on perimeter shooting from all the wrong players.
The Heat have two major problems interior play and perimeter scoring (inside the 3):
Firstly, the Heat need to improve their paint presence. Chris Anderson provided a major boost during the regular season, but has been outclassed throughout much of the playoffs, as their opponent's all-star level interior play has exposed the team in the low post. This has been evident against Joakim Noah, Roy Hibbert and Tim Duncan who's teams were most successful when the winning the boards battle. The upside is that the Heat have played well when Chris Bosh shows up.
In game 4 Bosh put up big numbers with a double-double, which helped the team out rebound the Spurs by 5. Game 5 turned out to be the mirror opposite on the boards as Tim Duncan put up 12 rebounds and 17 points and that exquisite low post spin move in the 4th that put out Heats late comeback. Although the Spurs put up a record breaking three point shooting, their rebounding and easy points in the paint were what ultimately thwarted any late comeback efforts.
Defensively there may not be a better defender at the 2 position; however perimeter shooting has been Dwayne Wade's major Achilles heel. At this point in his career Wade should've developed or at least shown signs of a sweet jump shot in the making ala Jordan or Kobe. Unlike Wade, LeBron's perimeter game continues to improve like fine wine. Thus, Wade's inability to evolve his offensive skill set has hurt his progression and perhaps the major reason why any comparison between him the really great scorers will not happen.
Wade's offseason Remedy: His new best friend this off season should be Ray Allen.
In all, LeBron has found himself again carrying the load alongside a streaky Dwayne Wade. Like Shaq said this is the big two, when Bosh has been able to perform in the paint they've been outstanding, but in the playoffs that's been the exception, not the rule.
Bosh's offseason Remedy: Bosh is just not comfortable in his own skin-- the guy is just an overgrown swingman and this works against Wade and LeBrons strengths. Pawn him off to free up some cap space after you've work out a deal for Dwight Howard!

This month The Sun newspaper started a new campaign that attempted to set Page 3 up as a supporter of breast cancer charities. This involved a front page featuring a topless model, with a commentary of how to check breasts for potentially cancerous lumps and suggestions of what to name your breasts.
Like you I have people very close to me who have been affected by breast cancer, some have lost people to it and they were very sad about the way CoppaFeel and Page3 presented the message. What is more disappointing about CoppaFeel's decision is that they should know better than to collude with what Page3 promotes.
So I was wandering around the supermarket last November when I received a call asking if I was willing to take part in a topless photo shoot! "Err, OK" was my feeble response but the more I learned about the project, the more I wanted to get involved. And I was not alone, I was joined by women the length and breast (pun intended) of the country!
I always chuckle when I am referred to as the 'Chief Executive Officer' of CoppaFeel!. I suppose that title still conjures up old school images of a fat man, sitting behind his desk, smoking a cigar - certainly not a job title I thought I'd ever be crowned with when I skipped away from my higher national diploma in travel and tourism management and into the 'real world'.

Friday we covered our stocking stuffers, and yesterday we took a look at some gifts that would go well under the tree.
We'll wrap up our gift suggestions today with some bigger items that will look good in the garage.
Osprey Raven 10
The Raven combines great features with a women's specific fit to make an amazingly functional hydration pack.
Osprey Shuttle 32
I've used the Osprey Shuttle 32 for nearly five years and dragged it through too many airports, bus stations, and train terminals to count. I've also thrown it into the back of far too many trucks to count, and the Shuttle 32 has proven to be very durable, light weight, and basically perfect. It's the bag I always use on our 3-4 week southern hemisphere ski review trips, and we don't exactly pack light on those trips.

Wild tigers on four continents: the key of future.2 millions years ago, a family of faintly striped chinese "cave"
lions plunged inside swampy vegetation of Yellow River basin,
probably to escape from other clans'competition.
Several generations later, tigers were born from this event.
From their refuge, they could expand afterwards to the North
beyond parallel 70th and to the South up to Borneo. At the end
of the Pleistocene, their distribution went even to west, up to
Oriental Europa.
Protected during historical times by influence of indian culture
throughout southern Asia, tigers have then submitted the
tremendous collapsus of modernity.
Audacious rewilding programs of captive tigers in prepared
areas could offer a strongly securized future for the biggest and
most beautiful cats in the world.
America (particularly USA) and Europa might have major roles
and responsibilities in this action, as they have all means to
actually build an efficient protection for tigers worldwide, their
own territories included.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Shares of Nordic American Tanker LTD (NAT) are up 1.18% to $9.40 after Jefferies (JEF) said the Commerce Department's decision to allow exports of condensate, a slightly refined energy product, are a positive thing for companies that ship oil in the near term.
"Even though we believe the condensate export volumes are likely to be limited, any increase in export volumes should have a net positive impact on the crude oil tanker market, even if minimal," Jefferies said.

TheStreet Ratings team rates NORDIC AMERICAN TANKERS LTD as a Hold with a ratings score of C. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate NORDIC AMERICAN TANKERS LTD (NAT) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed, some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and expanding profit margins. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the company's return on equity has been disappointing."

There are many consequences associated with poor health, which can be brought on by neglecting to exercise enough. Neglecting to exercise can increase your risk for a number of conditions linked to the heart and brain. In addition, your overall wellness decreases dramatically with the onset of obesity, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and depression. Some of these conditions can be life-threatening. The negative consequences of a sedentary life can be countered effectively simply by making exercise a part of your daily routine.
Obesity stems from a variety of contributing factors, with caloric intake and lack of exercise being the most significant. The U.S. National Library of Medicine defines obesity as an excess of body weight, which is measured using your body mass index. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 35.7 percent of adults in the United States are considered obese. Obesity is not exclusive to the United States. It's considered a leading cause of death worldwide and is a serious condition.
The consequences of not getting exercise can be neurological. Sarah Mustillo, Ph.D., of Duke University Medical Center, says depression may be linked to obesity through the HPA axis, a hormonal pathway that controls cortisol release, which contributes to weight gain in the midsection and depression. This release can be environmentally or socially stimulated and mitigated by working out regularly. An imbalance in the HPA axis occurs most frequently in children and young adults.
Type 2 Diabetes
A lack of exercise can result in the onset of insulin-resistant or adult-onset diabetes, also known as Type 2 diabetes. This condition refers to an imbalance in glucose levels in your blood, which can cause kidney failure, heart disease and death. Having Type 2 diabetes can mean living with intense hunger and thirst, frequent monitoring of glucose levels and frequent doses of self-injected insulin.
Another consequence of not exercising enough is a reduction in bone mass called osteoporosis. Bone mass increases when your body puts on excess weight, but a study conducted by Lan-Juan Zhao of the University of Missouri showed that this increase is proportionally less than the bone mass ratio of a healthy individual who exercises frequently. This relationship between bone mass and weight means that neglecting to exercise can increase your risk of minor and major bone fractures. Increasing your level of exercise can reverse osteoporosis.
Cardiovascular Disease
Perhaps the most serious condition associated with a lack of exercise is cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease affects the coronary arteries, which supply blood to your heart muscles. These coronary arteries become lined with a fatty deposit called plaque in a process referred to as atherosclerosis, which can cause heart failure and death. The risk for cardiovascular disease increases significantly in individuals who do not exercise and become overweight.

Our Opinion: Canada steps in for a mean, fearful America
If the United States is going to roll up the welcome map and douse the torch in the Statue of Liberty, someone will have to pick up the slack. That someone is Canada.
Cheering Canadians and newly elected Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau were on hand earlier this month when the first planeload of Syrian refugees arrived in Toronto. The front page of the Toronto Star offered a welcome in English and Arabic and an editorial about how Canadians know what the refugees have gone through to get to their nation. Canada anticipates taking in 25,000 refugees by February.
At one time, that would have been us, as in US, but no more. Today, Republican politicians in Washington and statehouses are hamstringing President Obama's plan to take in Syrian refugees. Republican presidential candidates are smearing Muslims and arguing for a closing of our borders to them, actions that are nothing less than un-American.
The refugees coming in to Canada are first vetted by the United Nation's refugee agency, then by Canadian immigration and security officials. Women and children, the elderly and families are given priority, with unaccompanied young men well down the entry list. This is no different than the policy articulated by the White House.
Yet while Canada welcomes refugees, America hides under its bed, shotgun at the ready in case a Syrian mom, dad and kids move into the neighborhood. Don't blame Donald Trump, Ben Carson et al, as they are just the symptoms, not the problem. The problem is a United States that, counter to its proud, welcoming history, has become prejudiced, fearful and mean-spirited. It's embarrassing and shameful.

TAMPA — The Gasparilla day shopping list for downtown Tampa restaurants is way beyond supersized.
At Samaria Cafe, they're piling in 6,000 eggs and 200 pounds of gyros. Jerk Hut is fortified with 480 cans of Red Stripe beer and 700 pounds of its signature chicken. Cafe Volo will be ready with 800 pizza slices. Taps Wine & Beer Merchants brought in 10,000 cans of beer.
As the Gasparilla parade extends downtown for the first time, some merchants are anticipating their biggest sales day ever. Some, but not all, downtown business owners are stocked and stoked.
"We're excited about it," said Malio Iavarone, whose Malio's Prime Steakhouse is popular among Gasparilla krewes. They'll open at 11 a.m., serving drinks and sandwiches on the patio.
Despite officials' promise to crack down on underage drinking and other bad Gasparilla behavior, some business owners decided not to risk it.
Bamboozle Cafe is typically closed on Saturdays and decided not to open.
"We heard enough stories about how it gets very rowdy. We're not sure about the cost to repair things," said Lynn Pham, one of the owners.
Five Guys Burgers and Fries in the ground floor of the SkyPoint condominium hired an off-duty sheriff's deputy and scheduled a full crew, including managers from other stores.
"It's going to be fun," said JoJo Jiampetti, a regional vice president who will be in the trenches serving burgers at 8 a.m. She won't quit until traffic dies down from the concert across the street at Curtis Hixon Park.
Upstairs, SkyPoint residents have hired extra security to keep revelers from getting too close. Wristbands will be passed out to residents and guests, and the front door will be locked. Some residents, who have a front-row seat for the festivities, are throwing their own parties.
Jeff Mathieson bought a second-floor, one-bedroom condo overlooking Ashley Drive three years ago, never guessing he'd have a prime view of the Gasparilla parade. He has invited 20 friends on Saturday.
At Taps Wine & Beer in SkyPoint, co-owner James Pellizzi will have a band and a special "pirates punch."
"It could be 5,000 to 50,000," said Pellizzi. "We really don't know what it's going to bring."
Moxie's Cafe, a North Tampa Street eatery that is normally closed Saturdays, will open only for a private krewe event and to cater for a couple of downtown businesses.
Over at Eddie & Sam's NY Pizza, manager Mike Sarmat expects business to be a little better than usual. For the past 10 years, sales were average during the parade, he said.
But this year will be no different for the Old Tampa Book Company, which has closed during the parade for 15 years.
"There is nothing worse than a full container of beer coming into a bookstore," said Ellen Brown, who owns the store with her husband, David Brown. They're going to St. Petersburg for the day.
"We close because we have nothing to offer to that crowd," she said.
Likewise, the John F. Germany Public Library will be closed.

dezeen — Freedom of Creation in Milan
Helsinki based Freedom of Creation (FOC) is a design and research firm that specializes in designing for Rapid Manufacturing, which is basically designing on 3D software, feeding it to your 3D printer and printing out your design. Founder Janne Kyttanen's underlying philosophy with his design is to break through all constraints that traditional designers deal with. Basically what he can do on his computer, he can make. What sets their products apart from others is that their designs are locally manufactured via 3D software, thus minimizing distribution costs, stocking costs, and need for assembly. While their FOC Collection is mostly lamps and accessories, they have partnered with other companies in designing for commercial products such as bespoke footwear.
Here's a short interview with Kyttanen on BusinessWeek (mp3) last year which gives a quick overview of what FOC and rapid manufacturing are about. His advice for young design grad students looking to create without limitations? To knock on a lot of doors, make a lot of emails and calls to design firms that have 3D printers. My advice? Sign up as a beta user with Ponoko and design without limitations! And while he says the 3D printers around are at the cheapest US$20,000, we know what affordable open-source fabbers are available now (see previous posts). FOC will launch new products in Milan from April 17 to the 20th.
Thanks to dezeen blog for bringing FOC to my attention.

Carlos De Jesus, Legendary Disco, Dance Radio DJ, Dies
By Dan Rys
Carlos De Jesus, legendary disco DJ on New York City radio station WKTU Disco 92.3 and the original host of New York Hot Tracks from 1983-1986 on WABC-TV, died Monday, according to the New York Daily News.
As a DJ in the late 1970s and early 1980s, De Jesus, along with co-DJs Paco, Rosko, Freddie Colon and others, he helped transform WKTU from a middling soft-rock station to a disco-centric tastemaker that rose to become the number one radio station in New York City during his time there, where he eventually climbed to a position as program director.
He later became the first host of the weekly hour-long television series New York Hot Tracks, which was syndicated to over 110 different markets in its seven-year run and often featured De Jesus introducing disco tracks from different nightclub hot spots around the city. De Jesus was the host from 1983-1986, leaving before the show's conclusion in 1989.
In addition to his widespread reputation as a leading proponent of disco music, he is also known to have been one of the first DJs to play hip-hop music on the radio, adding "Rapper's Delight" by the Sugarhill Gang to the station's playlist in 1979, a record that is usually cited as one of the first rap songs ever made.
Below, check out De Jesus' interview with Madonna right before premiering her video "Burning Up."

In Google "Maps" all previously executed driving "Directions" remain stored as layers in the "Layers" menu. Is there a way to clear this history of driving directions? Most of them become obsolete, if needed only once, but they remain listed in the layers menu which is not beneficial to keep a clear overview of the actual working layers.
Please let me know, if my explanation was not clear enough. And thanks in advance for any help.

Analyzing large amounts of data across a multitude of business systems enables companies to optimize the performance of the sales team, identify patterns in the industry, or determine the efficacy of marketing. A variety of tools enable organizations to prepare the data, but if the quality is insufficient, it will provide unreliable insights.
Data connectivity and integration can be affected by a variety of factors including how it is entered, stored and managed. Maintaining high-quality data is reliant on regular updating, standardization and de-duplication. However, if these processes are flawed, the data can negatively sway organizational spend and productivity. When evaluating the quality of your organization's data, a variety of characteristics need to be assessed.
In this slideshow, Paul Nashawaty, director of product marketing and strategy at Progress, looks at key factors organizations must consider to ensure their data remains of high quality.

An exception is a value which can be "thrown" or "raised" at some point in the execution of a program. This act can be detected, and the exception "caught", by an exception handler installed at some previous point in the execution. Catching an exception causes execution to continue inside the handler, which can then decide what to do next. An uncaught exception generally causes the program to terminate.
Here is Cat's Eye Technologies' official position on exceptions:
Ask not where it makes sense to throw exceptions; ask where it makes sense to catch them.
If exceptions denote truly exceptional events, then by definition, you are not really prepared for them. You have to ask what your program can possibly do to recover from them. Out of memory? Syntax error in the configuration file? Database server down? Method doesn't exist? There's probably nothing that your program can do about these things, aside from giving up and notifying the person in charge that a problem has occurred.
In this view, the main reason to use an exception, rather than, say,
blithely dereferencing
NULL and dumping core, is not because it is
really a better solution per se; it's just that it's prettier.
Not that that's bad, especially for commercial software! A newspaper article about a train wreck is a lot easier to handle psychologically than having it happen in your back yard. But my point is, software-engineering-wise, the exception isn't really a solution to anything. (And, for internal tools, you probably actually do want to be at the scene of the train wreck — you'll need as many grisly details as possible in order to diagnose the problem.)
An approach that takes this to the extreme is Erlang's "let it crash" philosophy. Exceptions are often touted as a way to avoid having a bunch of "error-return checks" in your code. But if the problem is essentially irrecoverable, there's no sense having any error-return checks, even ones that are dressed up as exception handlers. They'll just lead to a bunch of seldom-taken code paths executing in hard-to-reason-about error-mode states which run the risk of corrupting data (by e.g. inserting invalid rows into a database.) Better by far to simply "let it crash" — log the error and the condition that led to it, and abort the program. If the program provides some kind of service, it can be restarted in a known state by an external monitor program.
If, on the other hand, the event isn't truly exceptional, then the question to ask is "why is it being modelled as an exception?" Joel Spolsky raises some excellent points in regards to this issue — multiple return values are often a more coherent way to cast the flow of control. The unique utility of exceptions is that they can perform non-local returns — control need not return to the immediate caller, it can skip back up to a procedure that called the procedure that called the procedure that called this one, if that's where the handler was installed.
We believe that this property of exceptions should be taken into consideration when deciding upon an exception strategy: Will the callers of my caller ever care about this exception? When will the direct caller of my code not want to catch it? What benefit does this exception really have over an error-valued return value?
Python, for example, throws exceptions at the drop of a hat — when a value is not found while searching a list, for example. But likely it makes sense to catch that exception always, because if you're searching for something, it probably means it might not be there. And it makes sense to catch the exception immediately after searching the list, because your callers probably shouldn't care that you're searching a list. (If, in the future, you changed the implementation of your function so that it looked things up in a dictionary instead, a different exception would be thrown. Oi!)
We feel that this is an injudicious use of exceptions, and that Python is, sadly, hardly a unique language design in this regard.

Grimm Stuff
Sometimes life is like a fairy tale. Not the Teletubbies kind, the Grimm kind. Things are humming along really well, then blam! Something mysterious strikes out of the blue and your sweet reality is suddenly transformed into a nightmare. That pretty much sums it up for Peter Hoskins, the central character in Craig Lucas' Prelude to a Kiss, the 1990s New York City hit that is enjoying a stylish revival at the Shores Performing Arts Theatre.
Poor Peter's wild tale of woe begins at a loud Manhattan party thrown by his friend Taylor. There, Peter meets lovely Rita, Taylor's wacky neighbor from across the hall. Rita is a brainy, edgy, restless gal whose personality juggles equal parts of cheery good humor and debilitating pessimism. Peter -- a square, ordinary kinda guy -- is wowed, and somehow so is she. When he drops by the bar she's tending, she has a drink with him, and next thing you know, they are back at her place and between the sheets. Soon, Peter is meeting her parents in Jersey as they plan for a wedding.
All goes well until the wedding reception, when a strange old man whom nobody knows asks to kiss the bride. When Rita complies, something really weird happens. Peter doesn't notice anything at first; he and Rita take off for their honeymoon in Jamaica, but she seems changed. She no longer drinks, uses odd turns of phrase, and can't remember names and places from her past. And Peter begins to suspect that Rita is not the girl he fell in love with. What he discovers is that Rita is not at heart a girl at all. Somehow in that kiss, Rita and the Old Man swapped identities. Peter realizes that what he truly loves about Rita has left her body and what -- or who -- has taken her place is not her real essence. When his pursuit of the real Rita leads him to the Old Man, he finds his love trapped inside the frail, failing form of the aging codger.
Prelude to a Kiss
Shores Performing Arts Theatre, 9806 NE 2nd Ave, Miami Shores
Through Sunday, March 23. Call 305-756-8986.
Sometimes a story's concept is so perfect, it resonates like a tuning fork. That's the case with Prelude to a Kiss. Lucas' fantastical conceit allows him to explore a range of life issues, some common, some profound: the fear of not really knowing your partner, the nature of love, the nature of identity, the inability to understand lives lived by others. Rita begins to learn firsthand what the elderly face, struggling with bodies that can't keep up with the mind's expectations. And the Old Man's sudden new youthful lease on life, a commonly held dream of the aged, has a bittersweet side he never anticipated.
The Shores production is orchestrated with panache by its artistic director, Rich Simone, who designed the set and lights as well as staged the show. His sophisticated visual skills are apparent throughout. Using a series of shifting panels and walls with rectangular patterns and a gorgeous lighting plot, Simone conjures up the endless stream of settings with ease -- apartments, a bar, a resort, a starry night. But while his staging is fluid and clean, it lacks a certain momentum, floating along steadily when it should be swooping and soaring.
Part of the problem lies with the central role of Peter, who must drive the story in a series of narrative monologues in between the main scenes. Paul Lasa is quite effective as the heartsick Peter, but the handsome, likable young actor has not yet acquired the stage presence or experience to carry a show on his back, as he must do here. The rest of the ensemble, which has less burdensome tasks, fares better. Autumn Horne brings her offbeat, willowy charm to Rita while Bill Yule has a field day as the Old Man. The supporting cast is strong, especially Dave Corey in a sly turn as Rita's dentist dad, who is unable to detect any difference in his daughter despite her sudden personality change.
As is often the case, this production has implications off-stage as well as on. Just like this play, this company is amid a major transformation -- busy renovating its former movie-theater home, finding a strong audience base, and (it's hoped) turning this struggle into something with a happy ending. So far, the jury is out. The internals of this company appear to be working. Simone has a clear vision of his theater's mandate as a revival house of modern American plays and musicals from 1975 onward. This strategy has already produced Prelude, The Rocky Horror Show, and Crimes of the Heart. The future might bode... what? Lanford Wilson, August Wilson, Caryl Churchill, Sam Shepard? Sounds good.
But maybe not good enough. While the Shores Performing Arts Center has ambitious plans and dedicated talent to implement them, the company is up against the most difficult challenge live theater faces: marketing. How do you fill those seats when there's barely enough cash to pay the phone bill? Word of mouth helps, and if Prelude is any indication, this will surely be good. But word of mouth won't do the trick on its own, and the costs of advertising are prohibitive. Press coverage such as this plays a part, but that comes and goes. What to do?
Part of the answer should lie in community action. Study after study has shown conclusively that support for the performing arts adds a geometric benefit to surrounding businesses. It certainly appears that "downtown" Miami Shores could use some of this kind of boost. While the theater had trouble filling its auditorium on the night I attended, the nearby café did not have a single customer, and other businesses looked equally forlorn. What if community leaders made a push to support the arts as an economic strategy? What if theater supporters organized to patronize businesses that advertise with and underwrite theater companies? And what if the Shores and other companies -- and the Theatre League of South Florida -- began pitching themselves as assets, not basket cases? Those needing help are by definition helpless. Nobody wants to hear the pleas of the helpless these days. Like Prelude to a Kiss, the best strategy may be to see the other person's point of view. And then make a firm offer, rather than a tearful plea.

Changing your font globally in WordPress
Templates will have a default font applied to them. When you want to change the site font globally through out the site, you will need to edit the CSS "style.css" file for your WordPress. This article will explain how to change the font globally for your WordPress site using the "Twenty Twelve" theme.
Note! You can change the font through out your WordPress site by following these steps for any theme. This will work for all themes not just the "Twenty Twelve" theme.
Steps to change your Font Globally
- Log into the WordPress Dashboard.
- Go to Appearance > Editor.
- Make sure you are on the main "style.css" stylesheet. The "Twenty Twelve" theme uses the style.css style sheet. See image to the right.
- Paste the following code at the top of the "style.css" sheet. In this case the font we are changing to is the "Courier New, Courier, monospace"font type.
* {font-family:"Courier New", Courier, monospace}
The ( * ) in the CSS code will apply the Font style to all text in the website.
- Click Update.
Visit your website you should see the font applied to your whole website. If you do not see the font change, you may need to Clear your browser cache.

All themes in WordPress have the Editor tab. Be sure that you are correctly within the Appearance menu.

Nope, mine doesn't. I would include a print screen if this thing allowed me to

This would then be the first theme that I have seen disallowing it in the several years that I have been using WordPress. In that case, you would need to edit the theme files directly. You may do so by opening up your file manager of choice and navigating to the /wp-content/themes/ directory. Within there, you will see all of your theme files.
2014-05-06 9:18 am
Thanks I will try that
2014-07-15 3:25 pm
thanks for sharing. I need to change to this font
But i'm not sure what code is required. it would be kind of you to check it out for me.
2014-07-15 3:59 pm
Hello Javad,
First you will need download the font and then give it a legible name. The file name when you initially download is too long. Next you will need to make the font available from the web server. For example, you could create a folder on your website called fonts. Then you can upload the font file into it. The final path would something like this:
Then after you have uploaded the font, you would need reference it in your CSS code (please see using custom fonts in CSS). Once you have it properly declared in the CSS, then you can specify for a section of your site.
This is the code I was reviewing in Stack Overflow on using custom fonts:
You can then utilize the code listed in the article above. For example:
You might be interested in a plugin to make this easier as well: Use Any Font.
Or you can find much more in depth information on using fonts in the WordPress Codex- Playing with Fonts.
Hope that helps to provide all the information you need to use your font!

How to put google fonts at twenty twelve ?

Hello Wayan,
Thanks for the question. However, can you please provide a clearer explanation of what you need? We're not sure what you are asking. Please let us know and we will try to help!
Arnel C.
2014-10-19 3:36 pm
Dear Arn,
Sorry for confusing, what i mean is how change the fonts at twenty twelve wordpress theme using google web fonts, I see the google web fonts look great and i want to use it at twenty twelve themes.
2014-10-20 2:04 pm
Hello Wayan,
Thanks for the question. The easiest way to incorporate the Google Web fonts is to use a plugin. Check out our article WordPress Font plugins - WP Google Fonts. The article will tell you how to load it and how you can use the fonts.
Hope that helps! Please let us know if you require any further assistance.
Kindest regards,
Arnel C.

It was perfect. I was having a problem knowing where to look to make the changes in php and the css file. Now I think I can make any change I want to. Thank you.
2015-02-20 6:25 am
Improve? There's nothing to improve in your article. It's the simplest ever, really idiot proof, and above all it solved the issue with ONE simple line of code.
2016-10-02 5:56 am
He, I want to change my font size sitewide but I have entered that code (the first one given) on my style sheet and pressed save but it has not worked AND I have cleared my cache, I am using activello theme :( please help. the website is http://whatisweightlossabout.com and yes it is mine but do you see what I mean about the font size :)

2016-10-03 11:01 am
The above article is general, the code may differ in your theme. It's possible the element you updated is overruled by code somewhere else in the stylesheet. It is always recommended, but you can try adding an "important" tag to your code. For example,
body {
You may also want to check to make sure you have the font itself available either in your theme files or on the web.
2016-10-19 1:07 am
How do I change the font size for ONLY for pages and posts? I have a custom css plugin installed. Can you let me know the commands/code to enter?
13,572 Points
2016-10-19 6:59 am
So you want to set the font size to be the same on all pages and posts? Typically, the font size is set on the individual page or post, not globally on those post types.
2016-11-09 3:45 pm
I notice that my static post font size display bigger than normal, and i want to rest it to the same before small and easy to read, BUT i dont know how to do that, can help! here my site www.scholar4us.info and i use wp.
2016-11-09 6:52 pm
Hello Virak,
It looks like you need to edit the post that you have created. If you highlight the text you should be able to change it in the editor. There you will need ot make sure that the text is not set to a header type. It should be paragraph. Also, per the instructions in this tutorial, make sure that the font for the paragraph type (or whatever you're using in the post) has not been changed.
I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.

2016-11-20 9:10 pm
The code for changing the font is * {font-family:"Courier New", Courier, monospace}
I am not sure what the purpose of the second listing of Courier; and I have learned that monospace means all characters are of the same width & not variable. If I want to change to Verdana, would I do the following? * {font-family:"Verdana", Verdana, proportional} Or, could it just be * {font-family:"Verdana"} ?
2016-11-21 10:14 am
Instead you can change the fonts of your body
body {font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Futura, sans-serif; font-size: 1em; padding:0; margin:0; }as i did on my blog
2016-12-27 8:13 pm
Thank you so much! Worked amazingly on my theme - The producer, i had tried everything to override the fonts in the headinds, even within the stylesheet css, but putting it above everything really helped.
THANK YOU :) ! x

Thank you
2017-04-06 12:39 am
Hi. I'm happy with the default font in my theme (Ascent) but would like to change the size. I have a plugin that I use to change selected text but if I change from 18 (default) to 20 it reverts back whenever I press ENTER or sometimes when I click UPDATE. Also, the headings don't work if I am within the larger text.
I can't believe that this wasn't one of the first options to consider when creating a WP theme.
Thanks in anticipation,

It worked for me when I tried it on a test site running 2017 theme. I'd suggest opening up Chrome and testing there. Then choose Inspect Element after right clicking on text. When you see a reference to the style.css file click on it and examine the file so you can see if your code is in the file. It took a few tries of clearing the cache to get it to show up for me.
2017-07-18 4:51 pm
Thanks sir, It has worked like a charm. Thanks
2017-07-19 9:09 am
I followed the steps & tried using the code, but wasn't working. This is the website am trying to change its font; http://www.officeplus.com.ng. Kindly help out please.
2017-07-19 9:46 am
Hello Temitope,
Can you please provide more information on the website? Are you using WordPress? If so, what version? Do you have a specific theme? Note that some themes may have code that specifically controls the fonts being used within the site. Provide us a little more information and we can look further into the issue.
Arnel C.
2017-08-26 3:45 am
Want to change my whole website the into museo-sans-rounded, Helvetica, Arial,sans sarif. Don't know how to do. A slight help would be really appreciated.

2017-08-26 9:10 am
The steps in this article will work, but you will need a copy of those fonts on your server to make sure the style remains consistent across different browsers or platforms. There are WordPress plugins that can accomplish this for you.

FTC Settles With P2P File Sharing Operator
The Federal Trade Commission is reporting that it has settled with a Los Angeles-based operator of a P2P file sharing site, over charges that he duped customers into buying memberships on his web site. The FTC said that Cashier Myricks, who claimed that his Web site would allow users of peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing programs to transfer copyright materials without violating the law, settled with the FTC, and will refund more than $15,000 to the customers he duped into buying memberships. The settlement bars the misrepresentations in connection with the sale, advertising or use of any P2P file-sharing program tutorial or referral service or computer software program by Myricks. The FTC had filed suit in September over false claims on the web site.

Estonian energy firm wants to site windmills atop oil-shale ash fields
Estonia, a nation ravaged by unchecked oil shale production and its environmental consequences, according to international studies, has finally hit on a greener use for fields of oil shale ash.
According to the Baltic Course, described as an "International Internet Magazine (Baltic State news & analytics)," an Estonia energy company wants to erect more than 300 wind turbines atop several ash fields left over from extracting oil from shale rock and sand.
Here's an excerpt from the Baltic Course article:
"Estonian energy giant Eesti Energia is applying for special water usage permit from the Environment Ministry to erect up to 308 wind energy generators and transmission lines in the Livonian Bay, writes Postimees Online/LETA.
"The wind energy generations are planned to be erected in the Ruhnu, Kihnuedela, Kihnukrundi, Kihnulõuna and Jaagupi regions.
"The total area of the wind energy parks together with cable lines is nearly 20,000 hectares.
"Eesti Energia is planning to build new wind energy parks also in Paldiski and on closed oil shale ash fields in Narva."
This is relevant to Colorado readers because of growing domestic pressure to step up oil shale research and development in the Green River Formation in northwest Colorado, southwest Wyoming and eastern Utah – described as one of the largest oil shale reserves in the world. It may also be of interest to our dedicated Estonia readers.

Thin-Film Photovoltaics 2013
Call for Papers
The scientific community has reacted very positively to the previous two special issues on "Thin-Film Photovoltaics" (TFPV) that were published in 2010 and 2012 in this journal, so we thought that the 2013 will continue the series of annual special issues on TFPV.
The growing demand for energy, arising from dependence on electrical and electronic devices, has spurred many scientists to seek innovative and efficient collection of sunlight to convert it into electricity. This is evidenced by the growing number of academic and industrial laboratories, patents, and publications appeared in the primary scientific literature. The aim of this special issue is to collect contributions for solar-to-electrical conversion. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Inorganic cells (CIS, CIGS, CdTe, amorphous silicon)
- Organic cells
- Dye-sensitized cells
- Third-generation cells
- Technologies for photovoltaic applications
Papers about scientific breakthrough, technical matters, industrialization, and economic investigation are all welcome. For the already commercialized inorganic cells, recent improvements and achievements for next generation products can be presented.
Before submission authors should carefully read over the journal's Author Guidelines, which are located at http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ijp/guidelines/. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal Manuscript Tracking System at http://mts.hindawi.com/submit/journals/ijp/tfpv13/ according to the following timetable:
