The 55-year-old woman stole over R 1.6 million over a three-year period.
Employee sentenced for stealing over R1.6 million from employer
The 55-year-old employee defrauded her employer 55 times to the tune of R1.6 million over a three-year period.
by Liam Ngobeni
A 55-year-old employee bit off the metaphorical hand of her employer, 55 times by defrauding the company of R1 601 890-57 over a three-year period.
EMPLOYEE MANIPULATED FIGURES
Police spokesperson Warrant Officer Majola Nkohli said Elaine Heuer, an employee at the company for 32 years, shrewdly manipulated figures and the debtors system.
Due to an exceptional investigation by Warrant Officer Mariette Olivier from the Commercial Crime Task Team in Komani, she was successfully charged on 55 counts of fraud and theft.
The accused pleaded guilty to all the charges on Wednesday, 23 February 2022.
She was sentenced in the Komani Regional court to eight years imprisonment of which two years are suspended for a period of five years
The Acting District Commissioner, Brigadier Magqashela welcomed the sentence.

Magqashela said that it was quite disturbing and disappointing when an employee breaches the trust of her employer by stealing from them.
"Such a devious act is criminal and no mercy should be shown to ungrateful employees."
"This conviction and sentencing is a lesson to anyone who may think that they will never be caught, it is only a matter of time when greed gets the better of you and justice takes its course."
In another case where an employee stole from her employer, police in Limpopo are desperately trying to locate a domestic worker, after she allegedly stole a six-figure sum from a family's safe before making an immediate getaway.
CLEAN GETAWAY FOR MODIMOLLE WOMAN?
Limpopo police spokesperson Motlafela Mojapelo has confirmed that a case of theft has been opened against the domestic worker.
He said no arrests had been made yet – despite SAPS' best efforts.
"We can confirm that the police in Modimolle are investigating a case of theft, after a helper allegedly stole some items from the house she was working in and disappeared.
"The suspect has not yet been arrested and police investigations are continuing,"

The shock developments have left the Phasha family – who employed the missing fugitive – at a loss.
KEY DETAILS ON SUSPECT
They issued a brief update on the matter yesterday, revealing a number of key details about the case.
The suspect has been identified as a Lesotho national.
The theft allegedly occurred when the family attended church last weekend.
She was recommended to the Phasha household by an employment agency.
It's believed their rogue domestic worker has made off with R120 000 from a safe, along with other valuables.
The suspect left an apology note at the scene and hasn't been heard from since she fled the area.

Are You Building an Intelligent Organization?
"Risk Intelligence is probably one of the most important of the core elements which must be established when building a successful and effective governance, risk and compliance (GRC) program", said Lynn Mattice, Managing Director of Mattice and Associates, a keynote speaker at The Great Conversation in Security – 2017.
According to Mattice, Risk Intelligence is often confused with Business Intelligence. They have similarities. Business Intelligence is often applied to data mining within company databases. It is used to drive competitive intelligence, customer relationships, and supply change behavior.
Risk Intelligence is more expansive. There are risks, threats and hazards within the environments an organization operates. They must be extrapolated from external and internal data. If mined and understood, they can clarify opportunities for value generation as well.
Most security executives are challenged with developing a Risk Intelligence program. Government agencies will often speak about collaboration, but most will not share timely and vital information that could make the difference in formulating strategic risk programs.
Mattice suggests that the evolution of an intelligence program start with an assessment of the culture. This will become an essential data point in determining the value path that a leader should take. One of the cultural data points is leadership at the top. Mattice often acts as the advisor to the leader encouraging collaboration and a deliberate assessment of the data and the subsequent actions that must be taken.
Analysts must be hired or strategically contracted to help with the data analysis.
With this foundation in place, the next step is to act as an informed advisor to the business leaders. This will provide a rich layer of requirements that are aligned with how the company operates and generates value. Risks to people, processes, assets and markets are omnipresent. The role of the advisor is to help the business leaders quantify, manage and persistently manage those risks. Alignment with the leader's business and market intelligence team is critical. Your eyes will interpret the data differently and provide valuable insights.
The bottom line is an attitude and capabilities adjustment is in order before the security executive's team can provide trusted and valuable advice to business leaders. This evolution is necessary to ensure the budget spend is strategically aligned with the objective of running a valuable organization. Failure translates to brand and value dilution at the worst. At the best, your contribution creates opportunities that will help guide the future of the organization.
And, according to Mattice, that is the future of Security.
Lynn Mattice is Managing Director of Mattice and Associates, a management consulting firm and trusted advisor assisting enterprises in navigating a world full of risks. Developing Risk Intelligence Programs for clients is one of the services provided by Mattice & Associates.

Sephora customers often prefer the following products when searching for Dior Skincare Products.
Browse the top-ranked list of Dior Skincare Products below along with associated reviews and opinions.
A hydrating, refining, and brightening cream that visibly corrects pores and dark spots.
Thanks to the microencapsulated mattifying Smart Pore Control™—microcapsules of zinc gluconate that visibly reducing the production of sebum and targets the oilier areas of the skin—skin is instantly softer and more even. Day after day, it improves the appearance of pores and spots, revealing perfectly refined, even skin.
The exceptional brightening power of the Edelweiss from Dior Gardens. Skin evenness and color are determined by a pigment known as melanin. With aging and repeated sunlight exposure, the undesirable sallow color of melanin spreads all over the skin, altering its evenness. Over time, melanin also becomes darker, damaging the natural skin color. Dior researchers have discovered that Edelweiss extract from the Dior Gardens in Switzerland interferes in this process and can diminish, correct, and prevent the creation of dark spots. Preventive action against spots is one of the most effective ways to achieve lasting efficacy on skin evenness and color correction.

A Notice of Action and Statement of Claim were filed in the Nova Scotia Supreme Court on April 23, 2013.
Mirena is an intrauterine birth control device manufactured by Bayer.
In 2009, the FDA issued a warning to Bayer for overstating the effectiveness of Mirena, while minimizing the risks associated with it. Among these alleged risks is uterine perforation which can necessitate the need for surgical removal.
If you or someone you know has suffered from uterine perforation allegedly as a result of having received a Mirena IUD, you may wish to contact Wagners.
Patients using the Mirena IUD should consult with their physician should they have any concerns with regard to continuing or discontinuing their use of the Mirena IUD.
Counsel appeared before the Honourable Justice Gerald Moir on June 18, 2014 for a further Case Management Conference.
We are awaiting the position of the Defendants with respect to the future course of this proceeding.
Counsel will be appearing before the Honourable Justice Gerald Moir on April 24, 2014 for a Case Management Conference.
The hearing of the Plaintiff's motion for certification of the class action will now be heard on March 9-11, 2015.
Counsel appeared before the Honourable Justice Gerald Moir today for a Case Management Conference.
The certification motion requires rescheduling and new dates will be assigned shortly.
The initial Case Management Conference was held before the Honourable Justice Gerald Moir on September 6, 2013.
As a result of the conference, Justice Moir scheduled the dates of September 2, 3 & 4, 2014 for the hearing of the Certification Motion.
A further case management conference will be held on December 3, 2013 to schedule timeframes for filing the evidentiary record and briefs. Once a full schedule has been developed, it will be posted on this page.
The Honourable Justice Gerald Moir of the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia has been assigned to case manage this proceeding.
A Notice of Action and Statement of Claim was filed on today's date with Supreme Court of Nova Scotia. A copy of the pleading may be viewed on the Court Documents tab.
Wagners is presently accepting enquiries from residents of Canada who have been implanted with the Mirena IUD birth control device and have suffered injuries or damages.
If you, or a member of your family, have suffered injuries as a result of the use of the Mirena IUD, and losses have resulted, you may be eligible for inclusion as a Class Member in our proposed class action lawsuit.


I have known since the age of 16 that I would never be able to have children due to many health problems I had at a young age. When my husband and I were so blessed to adopt my twins six years ago, it was the most amazing thing I ever did. They are my life and I thank God for them everyday. We would like to add another infant to our family within the next year or so. The twins' adoption was an open adoption and an unusual situation. I am looking for advice from others who have adopted and know of reputable adoption services, agencies or programs that we can look into. Thank you in advance to all who take the time to reply! God bless!
Read moreMore from that E.I. has written E.I.
I don't know where you live, but,we adopted 4 years ago and used Angel Adoptions in Pelham Alabama. LOVE THEM!!!!Suzanne Peden was great and helped throughout it all. We were fortunate in that it was not a long process at all.
Can't give you an information about reputable agencies or progams, but I am an adoptee and think that it's wonderful that you are willing to adopt children. I was adopted before open adoptions were an option, so I know nothing about my biological history. I think it is strong of you to have done an open adoption, and I am sure it must have been unusual at times, but I think many adopted children are naturally curious about their biological history, and open adoptions give them an opportunity to learn about that. Anyway, good luck with the future adoption!
They have an awesome reputation.
I was adopted when I was 12. I think it is great that you are willing to give children a second chance at life. I hope you have a new baby soon!
Six and a half years ago, I placed my daughter for adoption. When I found out that I was pregnant, I was directed to Bethany Christian Services. Through them, I made the best decision for my daughter and myself. I suggest contacting a Bethany office near you. They are very strict about who can become adoptive parents and the birth mothers (and fathers if they are a part of the mother's life) decide who will adopt their child, but in the end, it is very worth it.
Good Luck and God Bless You!
What a wonderful thing you are doing by adopting. :) My husband and I plan on adopting a little girl from China, but we have to wait until we are both 30 (country requirement). I'm only 27 right now, so 3 more years until we can start. Best of luck to you with the adoption.
Hi! I just wanted to tell you how wonderful I think it is that you and your husband want to adopt again. My oldest was adoped (at age 4) through the state of Oregon, and once we get settled in Savannah we would like to adopt again. We will more than likely go through the foster care system, though, as finances are tight and we feel called to adopt children already in the U.S. -- People don't understand our desire to adopt again, especially considering the fact that we have triplets, but that's OK. Only those who have ever adopted know just how amazing, special, and such a joy it is!! Anyhow - your post caught my eye being a mom of multiples myself and also an adoptive mother. I would love to keep in touch!!
Lee, I have a little girl who is adopted from Korea, We adopted her when she was about 5 months old. She has been a true blessing and we couldn't imagine our lives without her. We used and agency out of Maryland called ASIA, adoption services information agency. They were fabulous and we highly recommend them, good luck, A.
Would you recommned the agency you worked with? How long did the process take?

Maryland field hockey beats Harvard, 3-1, to stay undefeated
The No. 3 Terps cruise past the No. 17 Crimson.
By Wesley Brown@W_Brown21 Sep 9, 2018, 3:19pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Maryland field hockey beats Harvard, 3-1, to stay undefeated
Maryland field hockey closed out the 2018 Terrapin Invitational with a 3-1 win over 17th-ranked Harvard, moving to 7-0 on the season.
Despite a slow first half, the Terrapins picked up on the defensive end in the second frame (a flip from the previous few games) and were able to close the game with three unanswered goals.
Harvard struck first in the 18th minute, when Hannah Pearce was able to deflect in her first goal of the season off a penalty corner, giving the Crimson a 1-0 lead. This would be Maryland's second time giving up the opening goal, with the first coming in the 3-2 win against Boston College.
The Terrapins would respond later in the half when Linnea Gonzales would score off of a penalty corner for her sixth goal of the season.
The 1-1 scoreline at half did not reflect the shot totals, as Maryland led 9-2 with all nine going on goal. Harvard goalkeeper Ellie Shahbo tallied eight saves against Maryland in just the first 35 minutes of play.
Harvard came out firing to start the second half with two shots in the first five minutes, including one on goal that was saved by Sarah Holliday. Maryland would respond well to the pressure, as the Terrapins earned a penalty stroke in the 43rd minute and Sabrina Rhodes scored it.
Madison Maguire would score in the 61st minute after Harvard's keeper came out to try and break up the attack, giving Maryland a 3-1 lead that would last the rest of the game.
Maryland will travel to East Lansing, Michigan, to start conference play against Michigan State on Saturday. The Spartans are 3-4 on the season, and have not faced a ranked opponent yet.
Earlier Sunday, Pacific took Michigan State to double-overtime and defeated the Spartans 2-1. Maryland opened the season with a 3-0 win against Pacific out in California, so the Terrapins will be hoping these results translate into a win to start Big Ten play.


WELLS, Nev. — An 81-year-old Canadian woman was killed and her husband critically injured in a head-on crash in dense fog over the weekend that shut down part of U.S. Highway 93 in northeast Nevada for several hours.

Sep. 19, 2012 1:00 p.m.
Nearly 30,000 people registered to use the new tolled Port Mann Bridge in just the first two days of sign-ups, surprising project officials.
The early surge already puts the electronic tolling system 10 per cent of the way to its target of 300,000 registered users by the end of February.
The province wants regular bridge users to sign up and get the TReO windshield decal that is automatically and efficiently detected without the more costly use of licence plate cameras and manual image checks that will be used to invoice non-registered vehicles.
Officials also think the more drivers who register and use the system, the more will embrace the tolled Port Mann and not clog other routes to reach an untolled bridge.
As an incentive, half-price tolls – $1.50 for regular cars instead of $3 – apply for a full year for those who register before March 1, when the three-month discount period for all expires and non-registered users start paying full price.
A further incentive gives 20 free crossings to those who sign up before Nov. 30.
Logan expects many more users to register as those two deadlines near.
"Our goal is to have 80 to 85 per cent of our regular users registered," Logan said.
The new Port Mann officially opens sometime in December with a free week before tolling begins.
TReO system registration opened Sept. 17 at www.treo.ca.
Logan said many drivers may not be aware yet of how the system works, that it costs nothing to register and get a decal and that it will also give them the lowest available toll when using TransLink's Golden Ears Bridge.
Asked how many drivers who don't register might escape paying, Logan said the licence plate recognition system has an accuracy rate of more than 95 per cent but manual reviews of images should bring the enforcement rate to 99 per cent and ensure virtually all are invoiced.
He said the "sophisticated" cameras can still read plates some drivers may try to obscure with dirt or other substances and motorists who do that face police enforcement.
Logan expects the "vast majority" of out-of-province visitors will also pay voluntarily.
Signs will direct non-B.C. residents to either pay their toll online or detour to customer service centres in Surrey or Coquitlam where they'll be able to pay in person or use a drive-through kiosk without getting out of their car.
The Coquitlam centre is at Lougheed Highway at Woolridge, while the Surrey one is at the 160 St./104 Ave. interchange.

Terrible Twos- how bad can they really be? This is the question I asked myself on Riley's second birthday, as I watched her jump up and down with pure glee at the sight of her new tricycle.
The answer after 9 months of pure mental and physical exhaustion? – hard, really, really, hard. The child is trying to kill me, I swear. My sweet, sweet, little gem of a baby turned into a defiant, uncooperative, stubborn, and independent to a fault, little monster toddler.
We head downstairs where she says, " I watch something?" On mornings when I'm running behind, this is usually an automatic "yes." Frankly, there is no time to play dress-up, build houses out of magna-tiles, or scrape play-dough off the floor, when you have exactly 42 minutes to provide breakfast, pack lunches, bottles, diaper and dress two kids, pack the car, inhale coffee, and make yourself look presentable, before rushing out the door in order to make it to daycare and work on time.
On days when we are ahead of schedule (which rarely happens…), the answer is "no." This has the same effect as a punch to the gut. Riley collapses into a dramatic pile on the floor, screaming, "Noooooo, I want to watch something." Followed by "you're a meanie" and "you're a mean guy." Two phrases that she has picked up at daycare from one of her lovely two-year old terrors friends. I retreat to the kitchen, leaving her to pick herself up off the floor.
She follows me in a few moments later like nothing happened.
I pour cereal into the bowl and hand it to her.
I pour the cereal into the blue bowl and hand it back to her.
I reach for the milk and pour a little in.
At this point I'm about to lose it, and remind Riley of our ongoing conversation about how we can't waste food, and that if she asks for something, she needs to eat it.
I put it on the table and walk away.
Repeat the same situation as earlier; Riley in a puddle of fake tears on the floor, as she pleads for muffins, yogurt, pancakes, and anything else BUT the cereal that she just asked for not more than two minutes earlier.
Eventually, she eats. I chase her around trying to get her out of PJs and into school clothes. Bode is usually watching from his "Jump-a-Roo" with pure delight, squealing and laughing at the fun game he thinks we are playing. When in reality, I'm 2.5 seconds away from tears and letting Riley go to school in her cupcake jammies.
At 8:05AM, we make it to the car.
Side note: her "wheels on the bus" is Google Play's kids playlist. It includes Wheels on the Bus, along with any other kids song you can imagine. By the time I get to daycare, I have come close to slamming my head into the steering wheel more than once, because surely physical pain would be better than this musical torture.
I put the volume down.
I skip through looking for the stupid farmer and his stupid dell until I hear the familiar intro music.
Fine. Child. You sing it. I take a sip of my coffee wishing it were wine and take a deep breath.
This kind of dialogue continues through the rest of our day, including drop-off, pick-up, dinnertime, bath time and bedtime routines.
I am literally in a constant tug-of-war with her until 7:30 PM, when I have managed to get her back into her cupcake jammies (one of the few pairs she likes to wear), read five stories after agreeing on two, brushed our teeth, had milk and water. She is finally in her bed, with all four of her blankets, two pillows, lamb and zebra stuffed animals, and a book that she insists she can read in the dark, by herself.
Riley: "Where are my stars?" she asks, referring to her Winnie the Poo nightlight.
I put them on and lean over her.
The struggle is real, but worth it. Oh so worth it.

Q: Given two different sets, A and B, how many functions there are with domain A and codomain B? Consider sets $A=\left\{a,\:b,\:c,\:d\right\}$ and $B=\left\{1,\:2,\:3\right\}$. How many functions can be defined with domain $A$ and codomain $B$?
How would guess it is the cardinality of the power set of $A$ x $B$, but I'm lost on this one...

A: Your guess is not correct.  There are $3$ choices for $f(a)$, $3$ choices for $f(b)$, and so on.  These choices are completely independent of one another, so there are a total of $3^4 = 81$ functions from $A$ into $B$.  But if I correctly understand your question, you want the number of surjections.
So you have to subtract the number of functions that aren't surjections.  There is one way to map a $4$-element set into a $1$-element set and you have three elements to choose from, so there are $3$ functions that map $A$ onto a single element of $B$.
There are $2^4=16$ ways to map a $4$-element set into a $2$-element set, but $2$ of those don't hit both elements, so there are $14$ ways to map a $4$-element set onto a $2$-element set.  There are $3$ ways to choose a $2$-element subset of $B$ so there are $42$ functions from $A$ into $B$ that map into exactly $2$ elements of $B$.
Thus, of the $81$ total functions from $A$ into $B$, $45$ of them are not surjective.  That means there are $36$ functions from $A$ onto $B$.


I place order on Dec. 20 2018 and received the package on Jan. 10 2019 the shipment was ok. The packing was good no damages, the Bild quality of the Grater Planer Slicer and blade is good it is exact as described it does the job.

Kelly Jo Brick: The Write Path With SCANDAL's Raamla Mohamed – Part One
A series of interviews with hard-working writers
– by another hard-working writer!
by Kelly Jo Brick
Aspiring writers often wonder how the pros got where they are. The truth is, everyone's story is different, but there are some common elements: dedication, persistence, hard work and not giving up.
Hard work and persistence were key for writer Raamla Mohamed as she rose through the ranks from writers' PA on GREY'S ANATOMY to researcher on OFF THE MAP and SCANDAL. Looking for a deadline to keep her writing on task, Raamla applied to and was accepted into the Disney-ABC Writing Program, which led to her becoming a staff writer on season two of SCANDAL. In addition to writing for SCANDAL, Raamla was a writer on the upcoming ShondaLand show STILL STAR-CROSSED.
WHEN AND HOW DID YOU FIRST KNOW YOU WANTED TO BE A WRITER?
I worked in Off-Broadway theater in New York. I was an assistant at a theater called 59E59 Theaters. It was a great experience because the theater had just opened and it had three stages, which meant there were a lot of plays coming in and out, so I met a lot of playwrights and actors. I got inspired. I wanted to write, but I didn't really think that was a real thing a person could do to pay their student loans back.
WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST JOB IN ENTERTAINMENT AND HOW DID YOU GET IT?
I went to grad school at USC for writing. It was a two-year program. I liked it because it was very specific to the industry I wanted to work in. You wrote, Writing the Drama Spec, Writing the Drama Pilot, Writing the Feature. That was a great experience. I learned a lot. The best thing I got out of that was that a classmate of mine worked at PRIVATE PRACTICE and heard about an opening for a PA at GREY'S ANATOMY, which I don't think I would of heard of otherwise because a lot of times people hire people who know someone who know someone. That got me into ShondaLand, which was awesome.
TELL US ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE APPLYING FOR THE DISNEY-ABC WRITING PROGRAM.
On OFF THE MAP I was Jenna Bans' assistant and she said she would be reading assistants' materials to staff. I was stressed out about it because I realized I hadn't written anything in so long. What happened is that she actually hired one of the assistants to be on staff. It was a great wake up call for me, because I had this opportunity that I just blew.
I started writing on the weekends and after work, just anytime I could so I could get some specs. I used the Disney program as a deadline. To be like okay, I don't know what's going to happen, but I'll write these specs and I'll know that at least I'll have a chance for that.
I did a MAD MEN spec. I love MAD MEN. I got some MAD MEN scripts. I knew an assistant at one of the agencies who could send them to me. I read those. The other thing I did which I found really helpful, was to go online and look at YouTube clips. There are all these fans who make clips of like Betty and Don's greatest scenes together. It reminds you of moments and gives you ideas of what to do for your spec.
I wrote a SHAMELESS as my second spec. I think it had only been on for a season, but I really liked that show. I felt that they were very different scripts. MAD MEN is written like Don and Betty enter and then the dialogue. SHAMELESS is more similar to the way we write our show. The action is fun. So I was trying to show a different thing. Then I had a pilot. I think you needed 3 samples. I honestly felt good that I did it, that I didn't just talk about that I'm going to be a writer then not do anything about it.
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE BIG TAKEAWAYS FROM YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE DISNEY-ABC FELLOWSHIP?
We had a guest speaker talk about what it's like to be a staff writer and how hours could go by and you realize you haven't said a word and then you're in your head and you're like I'm so stupid, they're just staring at me, looking at me like why are you so dumb, you're not saying anything. Then you finally say something and no one really responds. Then you think about okay, now I'm never talking. It was nice to hear that's a common feeling, that you're not alone and it's to be expected.
I think she said, "The silence in your head is louder than it actually is." That was very helpful to know or else I think in the first year I would have either talked way too much or not at all and just felt paralyzed by not wanting to share my ideas.
ADVICE ON FELLOWSHIP ESSAYS.
Get personal. Don't write something generic. It's hard to think about what is the most interesting thing about me. I don't think people just walk around thinking about that. So I asked my roommate at the time. She was like your dad was from Somalia. I was like, oh, right. Then I just started slowly writing down funny stories that I remembered. Based on that, I crafted an essay around how I got into writing. It's about me, but it's about my dad, who spoke very broken English, but we shared a love for TV. There's a thread in there that says something about me and why I'm here. These are things I don't actually want to talk about, but I had to go to a place that was personal so they get to the heart of who I am.
WHAT WAS YOUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE BREAKING IN AS A WRITER?
It's easier to become a writer if you're an assistant somewhere, however there are some places that only see assistants as assistants. Luckily ShondaLand isn't like that, because there are a lot of assistants who have become writers. It is hard for people to make that transition to see you as a writer. In some ways you just have to prove yourself and show them you're a worthy person.
I like to study. I'd watch the episodes, the cuts, read the scripts. There's talent and then there's hard work. What you lack in immediate talent, you can supplement with hard work until the talent increases. I just worked really hard. Anything they'd want me to do. Anything I could help with in any way. We have these things called addendums that post-production needs to play, like the news clips that air underneath the scenes. No one hears them, but they need something and they need to be filmed, so I'd write those. It's important and it's something that no one else wants to do, so I would do that. Also, it was a way for them to see my writing. I always encourage other writers to look for places where you can make your showrunner's life easier. The easier you can make your showrunner's life, the more valuable you are.

Now for a bit of light relief. It's a right laugh to have Chris Callaghan as a guest on the blog this week, as part of the magnificent UKYACX blog tour. He's written a fab guest post for my blog. His book THE GREAT CHOCOPLOT is a great read – my daughter has been reading and loving it, saying she particularly likes "all the silly names".
Here's his brilliant piece, about writing silly things.
My Love of the Silly.
plenty room for stories of all types.

When cold (open loop): Runs fine (starts right up, throttle response is perfect) Idles smoothly @1000rpm, throttles up fine, releasing throttle is fine, settles smoothly back to 1000rpm.
When warm (closed loop): Idles OK, not perfect (a bit erratic @750rpm) Throttles up fine, but when releasing throttle, will drop below 500rpm and usually stalls pretty quickly. After stalling, restarts and returns to same idle as before throttle test.
When test pin connected (TEN-GRND) such as for checking timing, it will not hold idle at all.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions about anything I might have missed? I'm perfectly capable of missing the obvious, after all... The biggest mystery to me is how it can run so smoothly until entering closed-loop, and even then accelerate with plenty of power, but suddenly stall that easily. Seems like it must be some kind of sensor problem, but I can't think what else to check.
So, today I ran my vacuum test and it showed healthy vacuum (19-25) with no significant fluctuations or drops, no symptom of vacuum leaks or exhaust restrictions. Pretty smooth.
Then, I ran SeaFoam thru the intake as per directions, it made a LOT of smoke (like in all those videos out there) but only a small improvement to where the car can just barely catch and hold idle 70% of the time when coming to a stop / releasing the clutch after moderate RPM drop.
Then I took another compression test, giving 122 120 115 123 which actually seems pretty good for being early in the break-in period.
Last resort, if none of that helps, I'll probably humble myself and take it to a shop for diagnosis.
Resetting the ECU did not help; Finally, I decided to fiddle with the FORBIDDEN IDLE SCREW.
Now, I have something very clear to say about this; I agree completely, 100%, wholeheartedly, this should NOT be adjusted to solve idle issues if the physics of the engine haven't changed. By that, really, in my case I am talking about displacement.
When I rebuilt the engine, at the advice of the machine shop, I had the cylinders bored 0.020" over to take care of some light scarring that had appeared from 240,000 miles of use. That essentially changed the displacement of the engine by a marginal amount, but my theory here is that it was just enough to cause it to idle roughly and stall like this. I have no guidance from any of my research, and no feedback from any forums on this topic, so I will go with my theory that this idle set screw exists solely for the purpose of when the engine mechanicals change in such a way (or, perhaps, shearing off some of the head due to decking, sleeving the cylinders, replacement of pistons with non-stock, aftermarket cams, etc.) Since this is my theory and nothing I've actually read anywhere, please don't take it for gospel, and for God's sake, PLEASE don't read this posting as open license to fiddle with that idle set screw. I only did this after a thorough and exhaustive examination of all the sensors, vacuum lines, compression figures, thorough cleaning of the intake manifold, fixing of all exhaust-related issues, O2 sensor monitoring, TPS reference voltage span checks, IAC cleaning and testing, and everything else that could possibly have affected my idle, and finally resolving on a theory related to how the set screw is configured according to factory engine specs and displacement.
I'm writing all this so anyone else that happens upon this thread might benefit from it. Even at that, I'm still not 100% convinced that I haven't missed something along the way, but for now the car at least idles more or less stable, and can hold idle with the TEN-GND connector shorted (for timing and such.) Speaking of which, I read from various other posts that the idle screw "doesn't seem to do anything" - IF you go this far, and IF you think it's necessary to change it, after reading all of my blazing warnings above, you might consider this is the base idle, just like base timing, and needs the TEN-GND connector shorted in order to properly set to spec. If you try doing either of those things (timing or idle) without TEN-GND shorted (diagnostic mode,) the ECU is going to do it's life's purpose and compensate to keep the engine running nominally, thus negating everything you do, thus making it appear like the set screw is "doing nothing."
Anyway, I hope this helps someone in the future.

Cendant Brass Calls For Forbes' Dismissal
Executives at Cendant Corp. this week called for the dismissal of chairman Walter Forbes, who held the same position at CUC International during the three years that alleged accounting fraud took place. An ongoing audit has uncovered deliberate and systematic accounting breaches at the company, which merged in December with HFS Inc. to form Cendant. "We simply cannot go forward under these circumstances,'' states a letter from 44 Cendant executives that appeared in The Wall Street Journal. "The continuation of Walter Forbes' employment … represents the probability of substantial irreparable future damage to the company's respective business units." The letter asks for the board to call a special meeting to "vote to relieve" Forbes. A spokeswoman for Forbes said, "Walter believes this is an orchestrated campaign by [Cendant CEO] Henry Silverman to take control of the company." Forbes has canceled an appearance as keynote speaker at this week's National Center for Database Marketing Conference in Seattle.

Paradise in Faribault is Nearing Paradise
Gordy Kosfeld Published: October 4, 2021
Paradise Center for the Arts Sign. Photo by Gordy Kosfeld
Heidi Nelson, Executive Director of the Paradise Center for the Arts in Faribault told AM Minnesota listeners on KDHL today they are very close to achieving their fundraising goal.
It's called the 100 Club. $2,500 gets you a lifetime membership at the Paradise so you don't have to pay yearly dues.
The goal is to get 100 people to become members so the Paradise can raise the $250,000 needed to receive a match from the City of Faribault and pay off their mortgage.
Nelson stated, "We are just a smidge away (from the goal). We don't have quite 100 people yet, so if people are interested in becoming a member they should do so."
"You get the satisfaction of knowing you helped us pay off that mortgage. Then we are going to do a little art piece in our lobby that will have all of the donors names put on that art piece."
"We're excited that we are so, so, so close. If there is people out there that really love the arts and want to keep that strong and alive in Faribault we invite them to give us a call 507-332-7372, Ask to talk to me or you can send me an email at director@paradisecenterforthearts.org. and I'll be happy to answer any questions that people might have."
Nelson is impressed that they have been able to raise this amount during a pandemic saying, "It was a pretty robust effort to that was made by all the people who have become members of the 100 Club. To think that we have raised almost $250,000 dollars during a pandemic is pretty amazing."
Nelson gave details about arts education classes, theater, comedy and musical acts coming to Faribault this month.

Gov't aims to cut federal spending by 5%
John Dimsdale Jun 9, 2010
https://www.marketplace.org/2010/06/09/govt-aims-cut-federal-spending-5/
by John Dimsdale
White House budget planners are working to trim 5 percent of federal spending by 2012. Departments and agencies have been asked to identify their lowest-performing programs.
Instead of imposing budget cuts from the top down, White House officials want agencies to come up with their own ideas for trimming the fat. Maya MacGuineas of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget says it's a good idea to turn to the folks on the front lines. "They know the programs the best. They have the hands-on experience with them. And I think they'll come up with an awful lot of good ideas of programs that are outdated, inefficient and really don't need to be there anymore."
The president's budget director hopes to see a lot of wasteful duplication on the chopping block, such as the elimination of 40 programs to promote job training. But Howard Rosen with the Trade Adjustment Assistance Coalition, which advocates for worker retraining, says you're not going to balance the budget by going after small programs. "The reason they're small is they don't have a very loud constituency and so it's very easy to cut these programs."
The inspiration for making agencies cut the budget came from the Defense Department, which has turned to the military bureaucracy to identify savings.
Bernanke sees lackluster recovery
Meanwhile, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told a House committee today that economic growth will continue, despite a struggling housing and job market, government spending, and European debt that he says will only affect our country modestly.
"The federal budget appears to be on an unsustainable path," Bernanke said. "Among the primary forces putting upward pressure on the deficit is the aging of the U.S. population, as the number of people expected to be working and pyaing taxes into various program is rising more slowly than the number of people projected to receive benefits."
Jill Schlesinger, editor-at-Large at CBS's MoneyWatch.com, says U.S. debt is forecast to rise from 53 percent of the economy to 90 percent. "It affects us basically by saying our bond yields will go up, it will be more expensive to do stuff," she says.
Linked to the budget, of course, is national debt. There was a report out saying that the size of our debt is creating a major drag on our economy. This is important because by some accounts a 1 percent increase in GDP can create almost a million jobs. How concerned should we be about our growing debt?
A Treasury report says U.S. debt will top $13.6 trillion this year and $19.6 trillion in 2015, which Bernanke didn't expound on very thoroughly. "Clearly we do need some fiscal planning right now, but Bernanke was quite short on details," Schlesinger says.

"The Patient as Host: The Effects of Tissue Environmental Factors on Disease"
Dr. Risa Burr
Postdoctoral Researcher, Mass General Hospital Cancer Center
Thursday January 26th @ 12pm
Pizza will be served!
Abstract: The historical focus on cell-intrinsic genetic mechanisms for cancer development and progression has recently given way to a holistic appreciation of the tissue and patient as an active host within which the cancer develops, constantly interacting with environmental factors like the immune system. These environmental interactions change both the cancer and the environment, producing effects that can only be observed when considering the system as a whole. In this seminar, Dr. Burr will describe two vignettes exemplifying the value of considering the patient beyond the tumor, spanning tumor initiation and metastasis. In the first story, whole exome sequencing of tumor and normal lung tissue followed by lineage tracing discovered somatic mosaicism as a new mechanism to explain why some patients develop multiple primary lung tumors at once. This discovery has implications for how clinicians treat this complex disease. In the second story, a mouse model of metastatic prostate cancer was used to evaluate changes that occur in the cancer cell and metastatic microenvironmental fibroblasts as the cell transitions from dormant to outgrowing into a visible metastasis. One such change leads to upregulation of a paracrine signaling pathway in which prostaglandin E2 expression by the cancer cell induces prolactin expression by nearby fibroblasts, which binds to upregulated prolactin receptor on the cancer cell, ultimately resulting in proliferation of the metastatic cancer. Interruption of this signaling with an FDA-approved drug reduced metastasis in mice. Without consideration of the tumor environment, neither of these important findings would have been discovered. In the future, Dr. Burr will continue to study the role of the microenvironment in determining the outcome of colonization, focusing on cancer metastasis while bringing insights from conditions such as pregnancy and fungal infection.

Music has taken singer-guitarist Avi all over the world. He studied jazz at the Guitar Institute of Technology in Los Angeles, funk in the London scene of the late 70's, and classical guitar with a master in Tel Aviv. He's played classic rock on the Australian touring circuit, dazzled audiences in Asia with contemporary hits, and once even played traditional music with a tribe of former headhunters deep in the rainforests of Borneo.
This showman's distinctive style and musical mastery combine with an enormous repertoire to deliver the perfect entertainment for virtually any setting. No matter what the venue or occasion, a performance by Avi makes it memorable!
Consider veteran musician Avi Haviv a citizen of the world. The holder of three passports, he was born in Jaffa, where he began studying classical guitar as a child prodigy, under a Master who studied with Segovia. He was gigging professionally by the age of 14 (forbidden to leave the stage during breaks because he was not old enough to be in the clubs he was playing). As a very young adult, Avi relocated to London for several years, absorbing the culture and musical styles of the funky metropolis in the late 1970's. A move across the pond came when he was accepted into Los Angeles' Guitar Institute of Technology. There he studied jazz under greats including Joe Pass and Larry Carlton.
Upon graduation Avi relocated yet again, to the thriving Australian music scene. He was soon ensconced on the touring circuit, playing 300+ shows a year as part of the acoustic duo DNA Expose with Kiwi celeb Darryl Lovegrove. The twosome appeared live on Good Morning Australia (the Aussie version of Good Morning America) some half dozen times.
Avi and his anthropologist wed and returned to the States. They settled in the Pacific Northwest, where they now reside happily with their son, two dogs, and a flock of chickens. Globetrotting Avi currently delights audiences at local venues, functions and private events in and around Portland and Southwest Washington. He plays several residencies including The Bistro in Longview and Tommy O's in downtown Vancouver. Catch him if you can!
Avi writes the music, his wife Melissa "Liss" writes the lyrics, together Liss + Avi Haviv = LAH.
