WEST CHICAGO — After six months of construction and a five-year FAA approval process, DuPage Airport has completed construction to extend its secondary runway. The 1,343-foot extension strengthens capabilities at the general aviation facility that serves corporate flight departments and national security operations.
Completed in January, the project brings the length of the airport's secondary runway to 6,350 feet. The extended runway affords the airport with two runways capable of accommodating large corporate jets such as the Boeing Business Aircraft, airport officials said. Spanning 7,570 feet, the airport's primary runway is the second longest in the Chicago area after O'Hare International Airport.
"The extended runway gives us additional flexibility and added safety by allowing us to use the secondary runway as a backup when maintenance is being performed on the primary runway," said airport Executive Director David Bird. "The airport can now handle a larger volume of aircraft, allowing us to increase our customer base and offer continually improved operations."
The $3.5 million cost for the project was funded 100% with DuPage Airport Authority revenue and employed 33 construction workers. Construction did not impact flight operations, Bird noted.
Other facility improvements in the pipeline include a $9 million widening of the primary runway and interior renovations to the airport's café, lobby and pilot's lounge. The airport authority has also announced a 2013 taxy levy abatement of $500,000, bringing total abatements since 2010 to $2.5 million.
DuPage's role was as a reliever airport was put to the test during last year's NATO summit, when traffic quadrupled in volume without a single delay, airport officials said.. The airport served as transportation hub for the 2012 Ryder Cup at nearby Medinah Country Club, experiencing record activity of planes transporting athletes, fans and corporate sponsors.

Ray Rogers Handcrafted Knives

I specialize in liner lock folders and professional chef's knives but I also make a few sporting knives. My knives are made one at a time, I do not mass produce.
As of April 15, 2010 I am no longer accepting orders for new knives. I plan to fill the orders I have over the next year. After that, I will make some of the knives I have been wanting to make and offer them for sale on this website. My plans also include taking some knives to knife shows around the country starting in late 2011 or early 2012. The shows I plan to attend will be posted here.
My sincerest thanks and most grateful appreciation to my many wonderful customers and loyal friends (often the same people) who have supported my knife making efforts over the last 10 years. Please continue to watch this site, the best is yet to come!
If you are trying to get started making your own knives, this website will provide all the information you will need. Feel free to contact me with your knifemaking questions but, please, read my

|Attention: DocWiki has reached EOL and will be decommissioned late January 2019.
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Release 6.1 -- About Using Features During Meetings
From DocWiki
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Release 6.1 > Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server > Scheduling and Attending Meetings
Users might call and ask how to use popular in-session Cisco Unified MeetingPlace features. Use the suggestions in the following sections to respond to these calls.
Note, however, that video terminals without touch-tone keypads cannot use these features.
See the following sections:
- Using Meeting Messages
- Listening to a Roll Call of Meeting Participants
- Recording a Meeting
- Joining Breakout Sessions
- Dialing Out to Participants
- Muting All Participants
- Securing Meetings
Using Meeting Messages
Meeting organizers might want to communicate with meeting attendees before the meeting starts. To do this, they can select the option to record meeting messages. Messages play to all participants currently in the meeting and to all new participants as they enter the meeting.
For example, meeting organizers can leave messages like these:
- "The meeting time has been changed to..."
- "Please prepare the following before the meeting begins..."
- "When you're not speaking during our call, please press #5 to mute your phone and filter out extraneous noise. Before you speak, press #5 to unmute..."
You must listen to a meeting message at least once before you can delete or rerecord it. You can listen to a meeting message by using option #3 to access the Meeting Message menu.
Listening to a Roll Call of Meeting Participants
Meeting participants can hear a roll call of the first 120 participants in the meeting by pressing #21 from their touch-tone phones. (The tones are suppressed from the meeting and the roll call is played only to the participant who requested the roll call.) In addition, callers can listen to a roll call of current participants before joining a meeting.
Recording a Meeting
Participants can record meetings for group members who cannot attend the meeting or as an aid in transcribing meeting minutes. Recordings can be used for training, marketing, or communicating technical information.
Users can schedule meetings to be recorded before the meeting starts, by using MeetingTime, Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing, or the phone interface.
- To record meetings that were not scheduled to be recorded, press #61 , if space is available on the system. (Scheduling recordings in advance reserves space for the meeting recording.)
- To toggle recording on and off during the meeting, press #6 . All participants in a meeting, and new attendees, are told the meeting is being recorded.
- To record meeting messages after a meeting starts, press #64 .
Joining Breakout Sessions
Meeting participants can join a breakout session (move into subgroups to confer outside main meetings).
|Participants Press
Move to a breakout session
#1 , then press a number (1-9) for the breakout session.
Lock the breakout session
Listen to a roll call of breakout session attendees
Return to the main meeting
For Release 6.0 Maintenance Release 4 and later only: The system can play an entry announcement (such as "Now attending: <user's_recorded_name>") when users move to breakout rooms within a meeting.
You can choose whether to enable this feature by changing the "Entry announcement in breakouts" setting in the following places:
- From the Preference tab, for all users, in the "Meeting Preferences" section
- From the Configure tab, for both User Profiles and User Groups, in the "Meeting Preferences" section
- From the Schedule tab, in the "Meeting Features" section
The specific announcement type (Beep+Name, Beep Only, or Silent) is inherited from the "Entry announcement" setting.
Note: If participants enter a breakout session while using Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Video Integration, the audio channel of their video transmission stays in the main meeting room.
Dialing Out to Participants
Meeting participants can dial out (outdial) to invitees using several methods, as described in Table: Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Outdialing Options.
Caution! Some options require system administrators to set up outdial options before the meeting begins.
Note: A blast outdial to 100 people or more can take more than two minutes to execute.
Table: Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Outdialing Options
|Do This
Dial out to an individual participant from within a meeting
Dial out to a team from within a meeting
Outdial yourself from MeetingTime or Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing to join the audio portion of a conference
MeetingTime: In the Attend tab, select the meeting to attend. Click the Join Meeting button, enter your phone number, and click Dial .
Outdial a user, team, or all invited participants into a meeting
Blast outdial to meeting invitees during a meeting
In MeetingTime, do one of the following:
Method 1
Method 2
In the MeetingTime Schedule tab, set the Outdial Invitees on First Caller attribute to Yes .
System administrators need to be aware of the following behavior when the Outdial Invitees on First Caller attribute is enabled (set to Yes).
- You configure meetings, not user profiles or groups, for Outdial Invitees on First Caller. The first person who dials in triggers the blast outdial, even if they are a profile user and their setting for Can Call Out From Meetings is set to No.
- Under some circumstances, if some outdialed parties join the conference and end the conference before all other outdial retries have completed, an answer on one outdial may cause everyone to be outdialed again. (This can happen only if the meeting were just a few minutes long before everyone hung up.)
- As with all meetings, profile users who join a blast outdial meeting are added permanently to the meeting.
Tip: To prevent users from outdialing, set the Can Call Out From Meetings attribute in the user or group profile to No (However, setting this attribute to No does not prevent the user from scheduling a meeting with the Outdial Invitees on First Call attribute set to Yes.)
Muting All Participants
The Mute All feature allows privileged users, such as meeting schedulers, meeting initiators, meeting contacts, technicians, system managers, and attendants to mute all voice participants in a meeting. This is useful when you require a controlled meeting experience with one speaker (the user who initiated the Mute All feature) and minimal background noise.
Before invoking the Mute All feature, keep the following points in mind:
- The Mute All feature does not change the audio permissions of meeting attendees. Users can unmute themselves at any time through either the Web or phone.
- Users entering the meeting after you have invoked the Mute All feature are automatically muted upon entrance.
- This feature does not affect users who are in a breakout session while the feature is invoked. Such users are muted however when they return to the main meeting.
- This feature does not affect users on remote servers or who are attending the voice conference through a video endpoint.
- This feature does not apply to Presentation or Webinar (lecture-style meetings).
- This feature is only accessible on systems that provide US or UK English.
- For Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Release 6.0 Maintenance Release 3 and earlier: If you mute everyone in a continuous meeting using the Mute All feature, meeting participants remain muted for the life of the meeting or until the next time the Audio Server is restarted.
- For Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Release 6.0 Maintenance Release 4 and later: If you mute everyone in a continuous meeting using the Mute All feature, meeting participants remain muted only until everyone leaves the meeting, including the web portion of the meeting.
Participants can individually unmute themselves by pressing #5 for the mute/unmute menu option. Once they have unmuted themselves, the global mute is not re-applied unless a privileged user initiates another global mute request.
In addition, two new entries for the cptrace CLI command have been added:
- After a global mute is completed, the system displays the following entry in the conference scheduler event log (which is accessed by entering cptrace -C on the command line):
- 1/16 08:55:43.81 C 910 MUTE ALL: User 134 Part 0 Port 0 Client VUI Result 0
- The following table describes the event log entry:
Date when the global mute feature was invoked
Time when the global mute feature was invoked
Unique conference number for which the global mute feature was invoked
Indication that the global mute feature was invoked
User 134
Unique user ID of the privileged user who invoked the global mute feature
Part 0
Participant ID of that user
Port 0
Port number on which the global mute feature was invoked
Client VUI
Client type of that user (will always be VUI for this release)
Result 0
Resulting error condition, if any
- After a global mute is initiated, the system displays the following entry in the VUI event log (which is accessed by entering cptrace -v on the command line):
- 1/16 08:55:43.81 P 2 Action : MUTEALL
- The following table describes the event log entry:
Date when the global mute feature was invoked
Time when the global mute feature was invoked
Port number on which the global mute feature was invoked
Action : MUTEALL
Indication that the global mute feature was invoked
Muting All Participants Through the Phone
To mute the lines of all attendees simultaneously, press #81 on your phone keypad.
Muting All Participants Through MeetingTime
By using MeetingTime, you can invoke the Mute All feature from within the meeting or as a help desk attendant.
To Invoke the Mute All Feature as a Help Desk Attendant
- Log in to MeetingTime.
- From the Administration menu, choose Configure .
- Click the In Session tab.
- Click Mute All .
To Invoke the Mute All Feature from Within a Meeting
- Log in to MeetingTime.
- From the reception area, choose a current meeting to enter the virtual meeting room.
- From the Meeting menu, choose Mute All .
Securing Meetings
Meeting organizers who want to ensure the security of a meeting can do the following:
- Require participants to enter a password before joining a meeting (set the Password Required attribute in the Schedule tab to Yes ). Participants must enter the password and meeting ID.
- Lock an in-session meeting by pressing #41 . After a meeting is locked, additional participants must request entry before entering the meeting. NOTE: Anyone, including guest users, can lock a meeting.
- Listen to a roll call by pressing #21 .
- Remove, by disconnecting, unauthorized participants who enter the meeting by pressing #43 . (This removes the person who most recently joined.)

Book Party for Lenelle Moïse
Tuesday, September 16, 2014, 7:00 P.M., City Lights Bookstore, San Francisco
celebrating the release of
Haiti Glass
by Lenelle Moïse
The latest poetry collection in the City Lights/Sister Spit series, edited by Michelle Tea!
In her debut collection of verse and prose, Moïse moves deftly between memories of growing up as a Haitian immigrant in the suburbs of Boston, to bearing witness to brutality and catastrophe, to intellectual, playful explorations of pop culture enigmas like Michael Jackson and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Be it the presence of a skinhead on the subway, a newspaper account of unthinkable atrocity, or the 'noose loosened to necklace' of desire, the cut of Haiti Glass lays bare a world of resistance and survival, mourning and lust, need and process, triumph and prayer.
Praise for Haiti Glass:
"Haiti Glass is a magnificent collection of poetry and prose. Part mantra, part lamentation, part prayer, this incredible book puts us wholly in the presence of an extraordinary and brave talent, whose voice will linger in your heart and mind long after you read the last word of this book."—Edwidge Danticat

You can comment on the state's $701 million spending plan for hurricane-protection and restoration work in 2014 at a public hearing Tuesday in Houma.
You can comment on the state's $701 million spending plan for hurricane-protection and coastal restoration work in 2014 at a public hearing Tuesday in Houma.
The meeting starts at 6 p.m. at the Houma-Terrebonne Civic Center, 346 Civic Center Boulevard. An open house begins at 5 p.m.
The annual plan includes a breakdown of how money will be spent in 2014.
According to the plan, of the $701 million in federal and state coastal dollars, about $513 million will be spent on construction. Another $63.3 million will be spent on engineering and design, $29.9 million on project planning, $37.3 million on operating costs, $40.3 million on ongoing programs and $17.1 million on operation, maintenance and monitoring of projects.
The report lists several large-scale, ongoing restoration projects in Terrebonne and Lafourche, including an $18 million aimed at introducing more fresh water into Bayou Lafourche and a $59 million project that will restore Fourchon Beach.
There are also multi-million projects to:
n Restore marsh in Lost Lake in southwestern Terrebonne.
n Restore banks along the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway in Terrebonne.
n Reintroduce fresh water into Lake Boudreaux south of Houma.
The public hearing will pair with another important coastal meeting where locals can weigh in on plans to spend billions of dollars in potential BP oil spill fines.
The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council public hearing will follow the annual plan hearing. Residents can hear about and weigh in on efforts to plan for Restore Act dollars that will be paid back to the coast for restoration projects.
The council is chaired by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce and includes governors of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. It also includes secretaries of the U.S. departments of Agriculture, the Army, Homeland Security and Interior plus the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The Restore Act, passed by Congress last year, dedicates 80 percent of BP's Clean Water Act fines to five Gulf Coast states. The Restore Act established the council to develop and oversee a plan to distribute 60 percent of the oil-spill fines that will be sent to the coast.
Companies involved with the spill can be fined from $1,000 to $4,300 per barrel leaked after the 2010 deadly explosion and sinking of the Deepwater Horizon rig. That could add up to $5 billion to $20 billion.
The council is seeking ideas about how to spend a portion of that fine money. Its draft plan will be released for public comment in the spring. The plan itself will be released in July.
While the Restore Act broadly sketches out how the spill fines will be dispersed, officials say planning has been difficult because many specifics are still undertain.
"We still don't know steep civil fines will be against BP, or when the company will settle. Because of that, we also don't know how much money the state and parish will receive and when they'll get it," said Terrebonne Coastal Restoration Director Nic Matherne.
The state plans to use its Coastal Master Plan as a guiding document for spending its share of the BP oil-spill fines.

Miami Dolphins Fans Should Be Excited About Next Season
Your team is about to take a big step in to being one of the top teams in the NFL. The foundation has already been built, and now is the time to start putting it to use.
This year is the year that good things will start and then continue to happen for the Miami Dolphins franchise. This is the year that people will start to realize that the Dolphins are here to stay, and here are just a few reasons why:
A Much Better Passing Game
The Miami Dolphins passing game has only gotten better from last year. They released the excess baggage that was holding them down in Ted Ginn Jr, signed Brandon Marshall who is one of the best receivers in the NFL, and still have all of those consistent receivers you have come to love over the last couple of years. Chad Henne has all of the tools he needs to become one of the best quarterbacks in the league, now let us see what he does with those tools.
The Same Old Running Game
In the last two years the Dolphins have consistently ran the ball with success. No matter what was happening with the passing game or with the defense, you could be sure that the running game would work out. Well, that same old running game is back and now it does not have to carry the bulk of Miami Dolphins offense. Now that Miami has a stronger passing game, opposing teams will focus less on Miami running the ball and more on them passing the ball. This will, no doubt, open up the field for the Dolphin backs.
A Great Offensive Line
One key to Miami's success the last two years running the ball was the offensive line's ability to block. The Dolphins offensive line corps does a superb job at protecting all of its backs (QB and RB), and all signs show that they will be able to do it again.
A Great New Coach
The Dolphins have been improving their defense for basically the entire off-season. Miami started off by hiring Mike Nolan as their new defensive coordinator. Out of the eleven total years that Mike Nolan has been a defensive coordinator in the NFL, Nolan's defense has been in the bottom half of the NFL in points allowed only three of those years. Six of those years Nolan's defenses were in the top 10 in points allowed in the NFL. So, as a defensive coordinator, Mike Nolan's defense has been in the top ten of the NFL for the majority of his career.
A Much Better Defense
The bulk of Miami's focus this off-season has been on the defense. Nolan was obviously the first big change for the defense, but he definitely wasn't the last. Miami then went on to sign Karlos Dansby, an extremely talented linebacker from Arizona. The Dolphins also looked to the draft to improve their defense. Seven out of their eight draft picks were used on defensive players. Mike Nolan has also, apparently, been changing the mentality of the defense. Nolan has been turning the defense into an attacking defense. Instead of sitting back like Paul Pasqualoni had them do last year, Nolan has been teaching them to be more aggressive and force offenses to have to make more changes against them.
Not only will next season be great for the Miami Dolphins, but so will the seasons following it.
Teams like the Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots were able to build foundations around great quarterbacks and win 10+ games every season. Miami should now be able to do the same simply because they now have a franchise quarterback named Chad Henne leading the team.

I can't be that positive about our chances next year. Mostly because of an absolute lousy defense last year. You can't fix something that bad with a few FAs and a bunch of unproven draft choices in one year.ReplyDelete
Don't get me wrong I know this defense is going to be better than last years squad. Most of the old worn out players are gone, along with their attitude, and a losing mentallity. Those guys are finally gone for good and that is biggest reason the defense will improve this year.
What Nolan will mean to the defense I don't think any of us can say. But once again he is a step up from last year. We are getting there dolfans hang in there. I just don't think this is the year. Another year of seasoning for the players, and a good hard look at Sparano cleaning up his mistakes with game time decisions. We will know allot more about this team and the fixes will easier to make in the offseason next year. Then look out this team is really going to be good.
But I don't see it being a SB contender or the AFC division winner this year. Sorry I wish I could say different.
I tend to agree with you, but I still feel like we have a shot at it. We are a lot better than most people give us credit for.ReplyDelete

Dodge Stratus
captdoc2007 Posts: 1My 1999 Dodge Stratus did the same thing a few months ago.
It was the starter. Once I replaced the starter it fixed that particular problem with the car.0
crunchman Posts: 1hey sigmaman, my '04 horn did the same thing while driving in a heavy rain. finally i just hit the horn for 20 or so seconds and that blew the water out of it. try that if u still have the old horn still on your car!0
ludwixx Posts: 1The blower, both in heating and A/C modes works BUT is
quiet in 1 and increasingly noisy in 2, 3 and 4.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
shadetreetn Posts: 1have u tried turning the steering wheel?0
davyx38 Posts: 2Some ideas could be the O2 sensor if its bad the engine could burn to rich (to much fuel can make the pistons float) or lean (not enough fuel and kill the engine) Another idea is head gasket issues, if oil or radiator fluid is leaking the engine will run rough eventually die. Head Gasket kits cost about $120 and labor can exceed $1000. Try using engine sealant additives, synthetic oil better fuel and spak plugs.
I have a 2000 thats leaking small amounts of oil but i discovered it pretty soon and have been able to keep it under control. To anyone else who has this car beware the engine, sensor module on the tranny, and timing belts.0
automan62 Posts: 2Not sure if you are having problem now but Flue pump and Starter run through that fuse .Starter may be problem0
hardashellblk Posts: 1same problem dealership service department said it was all 4 O2 sensor are bad causing the wiring to the altanator to short out and cost $800 plus tax to fix and is not covered my warranty.0
robert1979 Posts: 1this car the heat blows cold when the headlights are on but if there off the heat blows hot what could this be???0
dirtydirt211 Posts: 1It is runnin rough cause the IAC (IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE) has built up carbon take it off clean it and it will idle great.0
My check engine light goes on and off intermitantly. Every time I put gas in it the damn light goes on and then about two days later it goes off. Then it will turn on while driving and it will not shift out of second gear. (2005 Dodge stratus 2.4L DOHC) I pull over, turn it off and count to 5 and turn it on again. Light stays on but the car will now shift. It is happening more often. We have already replaced the battery, and some sort of solenoid that has to do with the emissions system and the starter solenoid. When I go to Autozone and have it read it spits out so many codes that you just know the reader hasn't a clue. Does any one out ther have any suggestions? I am planning to trade this thing off soon and I needit to run well.0
Also the engine will cough and sputter from time to time. It will idle rough from time to time too. It is also taking more rpms to make the gears shift under normal driving conditions. Some times it raps up to 3000 rpms before shifting at normal acceleration. It is disturbing.0
I just bought this car. I've noticed that it seems to "jerk" on occasion when I am sitting at a stoplight. I've only changed the oil so far on the vehicle, I haven't done any other repairs at all. Any ideas what this might be? Besides this random, occasional jerking, the car seems to run like a dream. Also, it only happens when idle. Thanks in advance.0
I finally took my car to the dealership and had them put it on the diagnostic machine and they wanted $2300 to fix it. My friend took a look at it and fixed the whole thing with a spark plug. I have had problems with my car off and on since we got it and it was always fixed with spark plugs and new wires. Make sure that you have the plugs checked/changed. It may help. It sure helped mine. Good luck!0
Have you figured out what this is? My stratus does the exact same thing. I have had the spark plugs done and one of my cv axles needed to be replaced. Neither of these fixed stopped the random jerking. My car runs very smooth and the mechanic said the transmission was excellent. Please let me know if you have found your issue so that I can have my car checked for it as well.0
I haven't figured out what caused it. However, I replaced my spark plugs and also used fuel injector cleaner (less than $3 at your auto parts store) when I filled up my gas tank. I did this twice. After using the fuel injector cleaner and changing the plugs, it hasn't done the "jerking" again. It still idles a bit rough at times, but nothing major. Good luck!
On the downside, one of my spark plugs was covered in oil. Sounds like I may have an engine overhaul in my distant future. Can't wait.0
Oh no! Just wanted to share. I found my issue!!! I already had the plugs done and ran some fuel injector cleaner through the gas tank. I got the cv axles checks and the mechanic noticed that my rear engine mount was gone, hence the jerking! 200 dollar fix. Hope your engines issues aren't too bad.0
oobbs Posts: 1I unknowingly ran my car out of oil this week. The oil light had come on twice before, but only for a second when going around a tight curve or sitting at a steep angle. As it only flashed for a split second i thought i still had a little time to grab oil (which is what i was going to do when the engine light started flashing), but apparently not.
When i was a few blocks away from home the engine light started flashing and my car began chugging and making some noise.
When i got home i borrowed a roommates car and purchased oil. Unfortunately when i was filling it the bottle slipped and i poured the entire gallon in, so it is now overfilled.
I have driven it a few times this week since then (it's finals week at school and i had no other choice but to go or fail) but it still chugs while idling or stopped at a light etc. But while driving above 15-20 mph it runs fine, just as it did before. I took it on the freeway today and it did 60 just fine. The exhaust wreaks of oil and is quite noticeable.
The car is a 2005 dodge stratus sedan (special model, can't remember the letters) with around 130,000 miles on it. I bought the car with around 20,000 miles on it and have taken decent care of it until now with no problems.
The only issue it's ever had is the check engine light has been on since it was purchased. So now when i start the car the engine light is on and after a few seconds, or when i begin to drive it flashes. I don't think this is pertinent to the problem but figured id mention it.
The other thing i have noticed is it consumed gas much more quickly than before.
I have read a lot of posts on various sites (including this thread) about similar issues but i couldn't find consistent information, especially dealing with running it out and overfilling. I am taking it as a good sign that it still works, but want to know if it's just a matter of time before my engine kicks it? or if the current problems are due to overfilling?
I will hopefully be draining the oil and refilling it properly tomorrow, but am looking for more information. Please, any insight you might have would be very helpful.0
lexi1982 Posts: 1Sounds like you will need a transmission rebuild. I had to have mine done as well. I was having the same issues with the jerking. Its your transmission slipping. Have it checked.0
tweetybird1 Posts: 1I just got a 97 Dodge Stratus couple months ago and it's been giving me problems every sense it's missing really bad but when it rain it is worse. I put cap and rotor on it but did not help it is leaking oil around the gasket not sure if it need spark plugs or not. Can anyone PLEASE help me.0
jglavin94 Posts: 1I wired my stereo in my 00 stratus and everything seems to be wired correctly and connected properly, but when I turn on my windshield wipers or use my blinkers it sounds like the radio is shorting out. It only does this when the car is fully running, not when the car is on accessory, is this a wiring problem, or a fuse problem? Thanks.0
bernsax Posts: 22004 Dodge Stratus, 2.7 engine, 120,000 miles. This vehicle has recently started dying occasionally at stoplights. However, it always starts back up immediately. Some days it runs just fine. Other days it may quit 4 or 5 times. No codes. The spark plugs were changed at 100,000 miles. It was dying before the plugs were changed and then the problem ceased until just lately. I have put injector cleaner in the gas tank the past 3 times when filling up. Without a code, I don't know what else to do.
Also, how far should the temperature gauge rise? Recently, a local mechanic changed the thermostat. However, now the temp gauge only rises to the first mark and stays there. Never goes any higher and then drop back down when the thermostat opens. Is this normal? I thought there might be air in the system or the thermostat was faulty. He put another thermostat in it last week and with the same result. It's a 185 degree thermostat but a computer says the coolant is 180 degrees when fully warmed up.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm not sure if a false temp. reading could cause the dying problem.0
plara Posts: 1Can someone please help this single mother that REALLY needs this car to work!!! Well my car is a 2005 Dodge Stratus SXT 2.4 liter 4 cyl 2 wheel drive. This car started messing up when the engine light turned on, the car starts fine but when you shift it will only go up to 30 mph and the RPM would be like in the 3 and the car feels like it's super heavy. Car will drive only on the first gear up to 30 and the second shift wouldn't kick in. The two mechanics that I took it to apparently claim to have changed a sensor and one even asked me to buy the computer which I did already so car has new computer. I did tell them both that I smelled burnt wire before it started messing up. yet they don't seem to find out what is actually wrong. Can someone please explain... Super URGENT!!0
It sounds to me like your transmission has failed. I have a 2003 Dodge Stratus SXT and I had to replace the transmission at 180,000 miles. Apparently these cars are notorious for their transmission issues. If you have a "Certified Transmissions" in your area, take it to them. They'll check it out for free. If you need a new one, it will be about $2,300, but you'll get a 50,000 mile warranty.0
cbrad01 Posts: 1My 2004 Stratus was doing the same thing. I would slow down or turn and the brake light in the dash would come on. It would stall and just quit running, sometimes I would not even be able to start it, come back a few minutes later and it would start up and run for a week with no issues. I also noticed the fans were not coming on when they should with the air conditioning and thermostat, this was causing the car to run hot and I would have to watch it closely... The problem was the positive battery cables going from the battery to the relay box and battery to the starter were bad. You can test this by reading the voltage from the jump start posts with a volt meter, you will see the voltage fluctuate from 7 - 14 volts. This is causing the relays to bounce and the pcm to malfunction... Problem was fixed with $20 dollars worth of cables and a side post terminal that holds two cables, it's not an easy fix if you do it yourself, but you will save a few hundred dollars by spending the time... Hope this helps, everyone always lists the problems, but they never update the solutions! Also, when the problem happens, pop the hood and touch the positive jump start post or the cable attached to it, if it's hot to the touch, this is the problem, should never be HOT!0
tjbullcity Posts: 1Your trans. has not fail. I had the exact same problem. U need to change the ECM. Its a computer that sits right in front of the positive post cable ..its grey on the back and have 4 square plugs running out the front of it...If u CHANGE that..your trans will work like NEW again.... :blush:0
awesome777 Posts: 1We had the same issue with squeaking I believe. I did some self diagnosis and determined that it was a ball joint ruuber boot had a rip in it and the ball joint was drying out. We also had it diminish when it rained but came right back. I just shot some WD-40 into the boot and the join and I know that is a temporary fix, but hasn't squeaked since then.
I realize this is a long overdue answer, but if anyone out there still has this issue, hope this post helps!0
doubledog Posts: 2I just got this car. Sometimes, it makes a big clunking sound when going into reverse and then when I put it into drive, the speedo stays at 0 and it feels like it's really struggling to go. We pulled out the battery and charged it. Now the battery light flashes for just a second. Before we did this, only the tach registered and all other gauges did not work. Help! When it does NOT clunk, it runs really well.0
ugh_a_stratus Posts: 1I have a 96 dodge stratus with 2.4. It started off sounding real rough so I took to o' reilieys and had it diagnosed and was told that it was front o2 sensor and mis firing plug. Made sense so I fixed the problems changed valve cover gasket cause the spark plug reservoir was full of oil. Gasket. Got done and car still acting up if anything it had gotten worse. Did research and had symptoms of throttle position sensor. Bought n replaced still chugging and sputtering and stalling and sometimes dies if not hitting gas enough. Kinda at a loss as to what to do. Kept researching and maybe cat? Maybe map sensor? Maybe timing? Maybe cam sensor? Mass airflow sensor? I don't think I can make it to town for another test so..... Ugh stratus!!!0

How to use bearing pullers to replace pool motor bearings
I like to say - "Replace your motor bearings when the noise level exceeds your tolerance". I got a comment the other day that said I should add "...when it exceeds your neighbor's tolerance". Either way, if your pool pump bearings are screaming to be replaced, you can replace them yourself with a bearing puller tool.
To use a bearing puller tool, however, you first need to tear down the motor, so that you can get to the front and rear bearings, which sit on the motor shaft. After removing all of the plastic pump parts (everything that's attached to the motor), you should pull off the motor's rear cover cap.
Locate the through bolts, there are four of them that run from the rear of the motor, to the front, to hold the motor casing, front bell and end bell altogether. Use a 1/8" nutdriver to remove all four through bolts. If they resist, spray WD-40 onto the threaded end before continuing. You don't want one of these bolts to break off the threads.
After removing the thru-bolts, use a flat head screwdriver and mallet to knock the end bell, or the rear closure piece, off of the center body of the motor. Knock it on both sides and pry a little bit to remove the end bell. Now you will see the exposed rear bearing. Take note of the number printed on it, you will need to order an exact replacement motor bearing.
Now you're ready to use the bearing puller. Hold the arms of the bearing puller together and bring the hooks which point inward, underneath the bearing. Tighten down on the big screw, until the pointed tip of the big screw comes into the divot on the end of the motor shaft. Tighten down a few more turns, and the bearing puller will pull the bearing up, loosening it for your removal by hand.
Repeat the procedure on the front bearing. The front bearing is usually a different size than the rear bearing, so make note of the bearing number printed on the bearing race. When you install the new bearings, use a bearing tamper, another special tool - or a foot long piece of 1" pvc pipe works well to seat the new bearings into place.
For replacement pool motors, pool motor parts, including pool motor bearings, seals, and of course, bearing pullers, see our Pool Motor Parts Page.

Milk Design Repair Project
Its always inspiring to see how the work of those in the creative fields have been influenced by the eco friendly movement. Sometimes their ideas are meant simply to communicate their support for using creativity to find solutions that benefit the environment. Other times, with a few practical modifications, their ideas can spur a new way of doing things. Milk Design, the people behind the Lace Vase, the topper that turns any glass container into a beautiful receptacle for flowers, have turned their artistic eye onto a new project.
Founder Chi-Wing Lee explains: "Collecting old things has always been one of my favorite hobbies. I found many treasures among the things been [sic] thrown away. Old things should have carried their values in the past but lost their existence due to disappearance of their functions, the change of people's habit and environment so on and so on. But is there any way to extend their life and make it useful again? These are the questions inspiring my search of interesting old objects, rethink, re-organise, "repair," add new design element while keeping the smallest changes and its original nature and beauty to continue its use for today's living."

Posts Tagged 'Center for Biological Diversity'
Wholesale Species Listings Wholly Rotten
We never thought we'd write one of those sophomoric "What do X and Y have in common" leads, but never say never. Here we go:
What do the Amargosa tryonia, American wolverine, ashy storm petrel, Big Bar hesperian, black-footed albatross, Brand's phacelia, California golden trout, canary duskysnail, Casey's June beetle, cinnamon juga, disjunct pebblesnail, flat-top pebblesnail, globular pebblesnail, goose creek milk-vetch, knobby rams-horn, Lost Creek pebblesnail, Mardon skipper butterfly, Mohave ground squirrel, Mojave fringe-toed lizard, Mono Basin sage grouse, Nevares Spring naucorid bug, nugget pebblesnail, Orcutt's hazardia, Oregon spotted frog, Pacific fisher, potem pebblesnail, Ramshaw Meadow sand-verbena, Red Mountain buckwheat, Red Mountain stonecrop, San Bernardino flying squirrel, San Fernando Valley spineflower, Shasta chaparral, Shasta hesperian, Shasta sideband, Shasta Springs pebblesnail, Sierra Nevada mountain yellow-legged frog, Siskiyou mariposa lily, Siskiyou sideband, Soldier Meadows cinquefoil, Sprague's pipit, Tahoe yellow cress, Tehachapi slender salamander, Tehamana chaparral, umbilicate pebblesnail, Vandenberg monkeyflower, Webber's ivesia, western fanshell, western gull-billed tern, western yellow-billed cuckoo, Wintu sideband, Xantus's murrelet and Yosemite toad have in common?
Answer: They're all from California – and they were all just pushed forward towards endangered species listings following smoke-filled-room negotiations between America's premier environmental litigation mill, the Center for Biological Diversity, and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. (We'll leave you to imagine what kind of smoke filled that room … maybe it was Vandenberg monkeyflower smoke … maybe not.)
We are familiar with the Red Mountain buckwheat, San Fernando Valley spineflower and the Tehachapi slender salamander through our regulatory communications work. We are also familiar with the Endangered Species Act and how it's supposed to work. This isn't it.
The species are among 757 species pushed forward towards listings as a result of an "historic" settlement of one of the Center's nearly countless lawsuits. (Why do the big environmental organizations always say everything they do is historic? Are they seeking eternal purpose?) They call it historic; we call it mind-numbing and a travesty.
The Endangered Species Act has a process to be followed for petitioning for a species to be listed, and for the review of those petitions. The members of Congress who approved the Act never imagined such wholesale actions as this, brought about by legal strong-arming instead of scientific analysis.
The Service is supposed to make the decision whether or not to move a species forward towards the listing process based on scientific findings presented in the listing petition, not litigation. Affected parties are supposed to weigh in on the petitions as interested parties – but were they in the smoke-filled rooms? No.
The CBD has become very adept at forcing these sorts of actions, which remind us of the mass weddings the Rev. Moon puts on – sure the numbers are impressive, but how deep is the knowledge all those brides and grooms really have of each other? How deep was the knowledge the Service's negotiators had of the 757 listing petitions before them? How could they be at all familiar with the immediacy of the threat to 26 birds, 31 mammals, 67 fish, 22 reptiles, 33 amphibians, 197 plants and 381 of those cute and cuddly invertebrates spread across all 50 states?
Clearly, the listing petitions didn't get the attention they deserved, and the public didn't get the process it is entitled to under our Constitution.
Do we think the Endangered Species Act to ever be implemented through a rational, science-based, fair process? No. We've been called upon because of our regulatory communications and public affairs expertise to promote several ESA reform efforts over the years and we know what it's like to bang our heads repeatedly into a Sacred Cow. Still, it would be nice if the most egregious excesses in its implementation, like today's example, would go extinct.

Has anyone been busy scrapping pictures of the fall colors in their area? I live in Colorado and recently spent a day in the mountains photographing the aspens. This year the colors are spectacular! What about those of you in other parts of the world? What photo opportunities will the change in seasons bring you?
Change in Seasons
I'm kind of bummed in that this is my first year REALLY getting into scrapping and i'm on an island where the seasons don't change. I see all these products with fall and think "how am I gonna use this?!" lol! i guess the same will go for winter. I always love seeing everyone's fall layouts though, definitely brings some nostalgia!
I love all the geometric patterns that are so trendy in layouts these days... as an overlay with different fall colored papers, that would be so pretty!
The trees here are just beautiful, and both me and my daughter just had our birtdays so there will be alot about that But it's getting cold here fast right now (Sweden)... Frost in the morning and about zero... brrr So better take pictures while i can
Happy Birthday Jessica! Are their any birthday traditions that are unique to Sweden? I love to learn about other countries and how they celebrate special occasions.
Lol, I'm in the same boat. I'm in Florida and we really only have 2 seasons...summer and winter-ish. Our leaves start falling sometime around mid to late December. They go from green to brown (and crunchy)...no yellow or red tones. I do miss that.
Where in Florida, Tina? We are moving to Pensacola next year....
We are in St. Petersburg (not far from Tampa). At least in Pensacola you may get at least 3 seasons, lol. It's a lot cooler up there and I hear very pretty. I haven't been there to visit yet, only drove thru the northern part of Florida while driving up to see my dad in Georgia. I'm originally from Ohio where there are 4 seasons and the trees were beautiful in the fall.
Hmmm something special to sweden... that's so hard 'cause for me it's "normal" At childensparty we almost always have a fishingstation Where the children fish candy The prinsesscake is huge in sweden even tho i don't like it very much
In Ohio, the trees are just starting to change. Not a huge change but the slow subtle change that makes me love fall in Ohio. It is always beautiful like Tina said. It's one of the rare things about Ohio I love because once we hit winter, it turns grey for so long!
I am doing a special session this weekend for a friend of mine. Her son is getting Halloween photos done at the park so I am hoping for some color change there to go with his costume. It will definitely be fun I am anxiously awaiting for the big change of fall though so I can get out there and do some snapshots of trees!
Hi Shonda!
What a great wedding photo! Looks like you were married by the ocean?
oh thats great to hear Tina, thanks for the info! i've lived on this island for quite a while so i'm really nervous moving back to the mainland US... not sure what to expect really. Never been to Ohio!
I agree with Lisa, that's a fantastic wedding photo Shonda!!
Here in Amman I've just been dying for the season to change. It was a decent summer (we didn't sweat to death) but I'm seriously ready for the weather to change. Although then it will be so cold that I will have to do all my work from the sleeping bag (we don't have central heat). But I love to wear sweaters and drink tea. We've just had a turn of hot weather, but my weather widget says it might rain! We've only had sun for months and months, so I'm ready for a change. I haven't always lived in the desert, and the few months I spent in North Carolina during fall are some of the most beautiful months I've ever experienced.
Yeah for i while there it looked like we were about to skip fall and past right trought winter But it's finally wormer again I sure miss summer, or i'm still waiting for it to happend cause it was a crappy one this year So i'm not that happy that it's over But atleast i got all 4 season Can't imagine to loose even one of them cause all have something special to offer... Even tho there come times when i wish i lived in like africa so i didn't have to freeze
I agree Jessica! Although I always seem to want the season I'm not having. It's hard to enjoy the end of a season, even when you know in a few months you'll be so cold that you could appreciate a hot day.
Here in Colorado we had 70 days of 90 degrees farenheit or higher. We have suddenly dropped down to 60 degrees which isn't too bad. I love the colors of fall but I don't like the drop in temperature. I am a sun bunny and enjoy my tank tops and flip flops!
Here in Sao Paulo the weather is a mess all year long. Our springs and falls are the "4-seasons-in-a-day" kind of weather. Also, the colors dont change next to solstices/equinoxes, but before, so some of us count them as the middle of seasons, and not the beginning. And. as we are in the South hemisphere, its spring here, not fall. What make the kind of "spring+easter" kits very weird for us
This spring is being very extreme: Some weeks of winter-cold weather, and some of very hot and dry ones. The flowers are everywhere since August, the Ipês (a Brazilian traditional tree with flowers) are awesome
Hi Lisa! Thanks so much!
Yes, we were married by the ocean -- Hilton Head Island, SC to be exact It is my favorite place to go and it made sense to have the wedding there since we both love it so much
It is so beautiful there!
Hi Lorien,
Wow Brazil! That is some place I would like to visit one day. The Summer Olympics are coming to Rio. Are you going to attend?
Celebrating what I think is finally the permanent change to cooler weather with a pot of tea and some biscuits. Woohoo! It's only 80F/27C degrees here today.
Well the weather in Colorado has been crazy! Yesterday it was 83F and today it is freezing! I go from shorts to sweaters overnight. Saturday it is going to snow and then Monday be back in the 70's. What a rollercoaster ride!
Wow that is some weatherchange I was about to say it sounded like a typical swedish summer but then you said snow
We had out second snow (had snow about 10 days ago but it didn't last) here yesterday. It was all white when I was up in the night but the sun came out and took it all away today. Soon we will have lots of snow and I can get some great winter photos. I love scrapping them.
Where are you Connie that it's already snowing??!!
Hi Lorien,
Wow Brazil! That is some place I would like to visit one day. The Summer Olympics are coming to Rio. Are you going to attend?
Possibly not Let´s see till there
Fall is my favorite time of year. I've been out on a couple short foliage drives, but didn't take any landscape pictures this year. My digital camera just doesn't take good pictures of landscapes (or sports, for that matter). Sometimes I hate the move away from film as a result. I hope to get a better camera some day & get back to my real love - landscaping photography. Just need to save up a ton of money first though, as most of those cameras are upwards of $1500. Ouch.
Lisa L. - I understand the roller coaster ride too. We went to a pumpkin patch yesterday, and it was already only 40 degrees. Unfortunately, because we are in corporate housing, we don't have all of our winter gear yet. Needless to say, we didn't stay long
What kind of digital camera are you currently using? You don't have to spend thousands of dollars to get a professional digital camera. A family member of mine does professional work and he purchased a Canon for under a thousand. The more expensive cameras do not necessarily mean better pictures. The reason most photographers move to a more expensive model is to get a faster image processor or extremely fast shutter speeds.
Sorry Lizanne, my question was for you about your camera and I didn't address your name in my previous post
It's a Fuji fine pix. It's one of those point & shoot type digital cameras. Prior to digital cameras I used to take pictures with a Canon EOS. Have been told by a lot of people I have a good eye & my photos are good, but that was before having to switch over to a digital camera...
I have a lot of lenses & such from my Canon EOS, so my desire is to buy a Canon EOS DSLR that will be able to use my lenses (so they don't go to waste). This way I could do my outdoor photography & landscapes, as well as take good (faster) pictures of my boys as they play sports (youngest plays on his school's basketball team). I just don't have the funds to buy something like that right now, given the high gas/food prices & all. My husband's job is a 1-hr drive from where we live (one way) and, even though his car gets fairly good gas mileage (32 mpg), the gas prices have made things extremely tight.
I hear you Lizanne! Money is tight for me too. I use a Sony Point & Shoot digital camera and it takes amazing pictures! I bought it because it had a Zeiss lens, which is from Sweden. Zeiss produces the finest optics. I would love to have a Nikon DSLR but I am like you. It stays on the wish list for now
In Arizona where I live there is only Summer and Winter and we do not get the wonderful colors of Fall as we did in New York.

One of the first things that an incoming Boy Scout must learn is the Scout Law. It's become so famous that many people outside the organization likely recognize it. "A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent."
There is no line about Boy Scouts being exclusionary, nor one suggestion that the organization discriminate. There isn't even a mention of sexuality. To be kind is to be kind. To think of Boy Scouts as some narrow-minded, anti-gay organization is anathema to how many of us have experienced scouting in our lives.
Yet that's where the Boy Scouts of America stand. The BSA's ban on gay Scouts and adult volunteers is a throwback to a different era, when homosexuality was little understood and gays subject to outrageous discrimination. It is time the organization started fully living up to the ideals of the Scout Law.
As it happens, that opportunity will present itself Thursday, as 1,460 BSA delegates meeting in Dallas will vote on a resolution that would allow openly gay young people to join the Boy Scouts. Approving it would represent an important step forward in social justice, not only for the Boy Scouts and the 2.6 million youngsters who participate in BSA programs but for the nation.
Opinion surveys show most Americans support lifting the ban, not only for Boy Scouts but for the organization's volunteers — something that is, unfortunately, not on the delegates' agenda this week. Surely, in a time when even the U.S. military has come to recognize the harm in discriminating against gays and lesbians, the BSA delegates can, too.
Admittedly, this is a controversial choice for an organization with strong ties to religion, particularly Catholic and fundamentalist Christian faiths. A large number of Boy Scout troops are sponsored by local churches. The meeting in Dallas has been marked by protests, and some believe tens of thousands of youngsters will be withdrawn from scouting if the resolution is approved.
On the other hand, the Boy Scouts' anti-gay policies have already caused significant backlash for the nonprofit group. Membership has been in decline for years. Corporations have come under pressure to withdraw support. Leaders ranging from billionaire Bill Gates to President Barack Obama and his 2012 Republican opponent, Mitt Romney, have supported ending the gay membership ban.
The opportunities presented by scouting may be more important than ever. Young people can benefit from an organization that offers kids a chance to get outdoors, camp, hike and explore nature, learn about leadership and teamwork and benefit from adult role models. Surely, that's more productive than sitting around playing video games or otherwise contributing to the nation's obesity epidemic.
To earn scouting's highest honor, the Eagle Scout, requires an extraordinary effort of progressing through the lower ranks, earning 21 merit badges, and helping lead one's troop. Only 7 percent of scouts achieve it. Many corporate CEOs were once Eagle Scouts. Why should a young man be denied that opportunity because he is gay?
Perhaps there are some parents who, for whatever reason, would rather their sons were never exposed to someone who is gay. To that, we can only say they are not living in the real world. Worse, they are teaching their kids that it is perfectly fine to discriminate. Gays and lesbians live among us and always have. They are represented among our families, our friends, our neighbors, our colleagues. To exclude such individuals from the Boy Scouts — or to otherwise try to "shelter" our children from them — is profoundly misguided.
In Maryland, we have learned that equality is a good thing — as last year's referendum in which voters overwhelmingly approved gay marriage reminded us. The next step is for that message to filter down to institutions like the Boy Scouts, which purport to embrace American values like kindness, friendliness and helpfulness.
Today, a century-old organization is in danger of being discarded because it has failed to keep up with the times. A vote in favor of the BSA resolution would be an important step in the right direction. Otherwise, the once-proud organization will merely be seen as synonymous with discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and not with the ideals of the Scout Law.

Flow Science Recipient of Intel's Voyager Award at SC 12
Flow Science, the developers of FLOW-3D, a highly-accurate computational fluid dynamics (CFD) package, has won for the second year in a row, the Intel® Cluster Ready Voyager Award, part of the Intel® Cluster Ready Partner Appreciation Awards at SC 12. The Voyager Awards recognize those organizations that have contributed to Intel® Cluster Ready advancement, total available market growth and helped penetrate the much sought after but elusive "missing middle" for customers moving to cluster-based solutions.
CFD lies at the core of most industrial design cycles in hydraulics, aerospace, casting, microfluidics and other engineering applications. As hardware architectures evolve, engineers are constantly trying to solve large complex simulations with reduced runtimes in order to optimize their design cycles. Flow Science developers have collaborated with Intel technical staff for over 7 years to improve the accuracy and performance of FLOW-3D using Intel's constantly evolving architecture and toolsets to meet its customers demand for accurate solutions in less time for larger data sets.
"Working with the Intel® support team, we were able to exceed what had been a previous scaling limit of 32 cores. After enabling our software for distributed memory parallelism, we were able to run on more than 32 cores of Intel®'s latest processor architecture and find out how the software performed," said Anup Gokarn, Senior FLOW-3D/MP Developer.
Earlier this year, Flow Science collaborated with Silicon Mechanics, a leading manufacturer of rackmount servers, storage, and high-performance computing clusters, to offer a turnkey cluster solution for FLOW-3D/MP customers. The cluster solution features the most advanced technology from Intel; pre-installed FLOW-3D/MP; an exclusive on-line configurator; and integrated Intel Cluster Ready registered software and certified hardware.
The turnkey cluster solution developed for FLOW-3D/MP is an Intel® Cluster Ready-registered application and has been validated on Intel® Xeon® processor Product Family hardware, thereby ensuring that users enjoy the same solutions they've come to expect from workstations. Users are guaranteed that the hardware and software will work correctly together.
