After a bit of wheeler dealing, I picked up a white M reg E220 auto in lovely clean condition taking it as a p-ex on my rather lovely Jag XJ6. The bodywork was unblemished and quite remarkable con sidering it was 13 yaers old. The blue velour trim similarly was unmarked and evrything equipment wise in perfect working order. Not that any of this came as a surprise to me since out of all the Mercs I've had the pleasure to own (7) there has never been much to complain about apart from the wallet bursting fuel consumption of my W123, beautiful and original as it was.
What we had here stood testimony to the much deserved and redoubtable reputation of Mercedes Benz. The 190 presents itself as one of the best mid sized saloons on the market. That market is dominated by the German marques and they are largely unchallenged, certainly by British marques of volume mid sized saloons with the exception of my revered Jaguars(even with their faults I still love 'em).
Solidly built from the best materials, it's what I've come to expect from the pioneering car manufacturer. The ride, handling and performance of the 190 are evidence, if any were needed, of the pedigree of the marque. The mechanicals can whip you effortlessly, quickly and extremely smoothly to where you want to be and the fuel consumtion wont take the smile of your face as you travel first class to your destination. The insurance group on these old babies is easy on the pocket too and shouldn;t troubke the careful drivers amongst us. Maintenance D.I.Y style is cheap and they are fairly easy to work on.
Outdated and superceded it maybe but the Mercedes 190 can still be picked up in great nick and at pocket money prices. It will deliver some much needed driving pleasure even when it's stuck in a bank holiday traffic jam.
I own a 1991 Mercedes 190D and have to agree with another reviewer in that it is the best car I have ever owned. To put this into perspective, it passed the MOT this year only needing the headlamp reflector cleaned a bit. This contrasts with my other (much newer) car that cost £235 to get through!
Yes, the Mercedes is described by Parkers as 'unrefined' and I would agree with this to a degree. Mine has power steering, an electric sunroof and electric mirrors. That is about it for comfort, good old fashioned windy windows, no aircon or any other comforts. What it does have is a bomb proof engine and superb design. The car has covered 193,000 miles and always starts first time, rain, shine or snow. The manual gearbox is s a bit 'clunky' at times and the drive train is a bit fierce on pick up (a drive link that has been wobbly for the six years I have owned the car) but generally still drives nice and smooth, goes roughly where you point it and stops in very good time.
The car is still relatively comfortable to sit in, even with the legendary slightly off centre driving position and the usual left hand camber set up.
Servicing costs are low. To be honest, I have spent less on maintenance on this car in six years than I have on my other car in 15 months! One can also pick up second hand parts quite cheaply from specialist breakers or through the internet.
There is plenty of room inside for four adults, although the back is not huge. The boot is a fair size and takes most of my drums with ease, although the opening could be bigger.
I would recommend any Mercedes owner also joining the Mercedes Owner Club as you get a monthly magazine and discount off parts at GSF Carparts' already reasonable prices.
Mercedes have not scored too well on the quality and reliability surveys of recent years,shame.They seemed to have used cheaper materials and maybe cut a few other corners along the way but hay most companys are cutting back to survive.
Pre noughties cars were well over engineered,made to last and this shows.
My Dad was looking for a posh motor,a Merc,something for Mum to drive around in ,had to be an auto and not too big.This was back in the mid 1990s and I located a very nice 1989/90 reg 190 E well equipped smart smoke silver,about 3/4 years old reasonable miles 40,000 ish and for just under £10K.A reasonable price at the time and well worth it.
It is the 2.0 litre model,plenty of oomph for a small saloon and not bad on the juice,giving about 30 mpg at best.I have driven it loads of times over the 17 years they have owned it,a real pleasure to drive,smooth autobox wit instant kick down.I was quite suprised at how good the performance was and it cruised well on the motorway,70mph @ 3500 revs.Theirs has black cloth interior,very hard wearing,bullet proof bodywork,no rust showing,I can't believe they still have it today about 17 years on now! It has just gone over the 100,000 mile mark and it does not show it.Its a shame Mercedes do not make them like this anymore but if they did they probably would have gone out of business!
Running costs have always been reasonable,it seems to eat up the miles and fly throug MOTs year after year without much trouble.My Dad does take great care checking the oil and water,getting the annual sevice done by a local independant.This has served him well and kept Mother happy.I am sure it will outlast them both and become a classic collectable!
Find a good one,plenty of service history is a must,pay a little more,forget bangers they will cost mega bucks to fix.
Thanks for reading my review and I hope you found it interesting.If this has been useful to you and you take time to leave Your rating it will be appreciated and hope you will take a look at my other reviews sometime.I also leave reviews on the Ciao website about this and other items,many thanks!
Brought this car (a H reg, metallic blue, 190 E 2L petrol automatic) in early 2000 selling on in 2006 and I still think wistfully of our time together! A neighbor summed it up when she said the car was 'beautiful'.
But enough of looks what was it like to drive! Well again the word here that best sums things up is comfortable, nice comfy seats (like sitting in a big armchair) and a good overall drive position. Comfort been important since I was at the time logging some long miles due to working far from home. Steering and braking was also nice and positive and helped inspire confidence and the auto-box was pretty smooth with the 2L engine sufficiency powerful to move what is quite a heavy vehicle.
Downsides well it was pretty thirsty (typically getting 30 or so mpg) and because the rear seats didn't fold down you only had limited boot space (which is why I reverted to a hatchback once this was sold).
Clearly this is now a model that is getting on in yrs and while it can be picked up pretty cheaply you can perhaps expect there to be issues given the vehicles age. One in particular I am aware of been a problem with cold starts, basically the car doesn't want to from cold but will then work fine once warmed up. If your going to view one have a feel of the bonnet to check it hasn't been pre-warmed and if it has be a little on guard.
Finally I'd also definitely check out some of the dedicated forums and fan sites for this vehicle for further tips on buying and running this model. There's still plenty of enthusiasts out there who love this vehicle!
My 1991 190e 4 cyclinder 2.3 litre is a dream. It may be considered a classic now in 2008, but I have had people mistake my sub-compact "Baby-Benz" as brand new. It still has a "showroom shine". This little Mercedes has 230,000 miles on it and is still running strong, plus looking almost new, inside and out, as well as under the hood (bonnet to my Brit friends). It has the classic Mercedes elegance, unlike the new ones that look like a homogenized Lexus or something. Love this car and intend to keep it forever and a day. Don - St. Charles, Missouri, middle of the USA
A wonderful car! Mine is the injection model 190e with 1995 cc engine. It is white with black interior, and there is a light gray trim along the lower section of the car. A few year ago I had it converted to LPG, which makes it very lo cost to run! There is no loss of performance. I it has 160,000 miles on the clock and has had very few problems. I had new rear shockers on last year, and this year (2008) I am having a new steering box fitted. One of the few problems is that being very low on the ground, it doesn't like speed bumps. (who does)! I intend to keep it as long as I can. It is a great car, very comfortable and reliable. Apart from the Gas conversion, I intend to keep it as new specification. I would reccomend the 190e to any one, but I think the 1800cc may be a bit light on power.
The Mercedes Benz 190 is probably the best car that we have ever owned. My wife bought it in 1992, from her brother. It was registered in 1989 and is the carburretor model, with manual transmission. It is cream, with the lower trim panels painted a bronze colour - very attractive. It has black cloth interior. My brother-in-law was the second owner and it had 32,000 miles (genuine) on the clock when we bought it. It has now covered over 119,000 miles but is now (temporarily) off the road (see below) I have serviced it myself, but three repairs have been consigned to the local Mercedes Dealer - a new rear suspension bush, a new centre section for the exhaust (no extra cost for the Main Agent to fit it - and not available from other suppliers) and some replacement brake pipes. Bodily it is still perfect (in spite of NEVER being garaged), but the ineterior is starting to show wear on the driver's seat. The engine burns just a little oil and the carburretor will soon require an overhaul (cost of £78 including VAT has been quoted by a carburretor specialist). The Main Dealer costs, when I have used it, are on the expensive side, but the service is of a very high quality and cannot be faulted. A set of tyres lasts about 40,000 miles, and the exhaust has been replaced (one section at a time) only once which is very good for a car now 13 years old. It is quite heavy on brake discs, the front being replaced for the fourth time, and the rear have been replaced twice. A major problem caused grief. It was very cold and I was working in my study when I heard a loud noise outside, sounding like something falling from the roof. My wife, Heather, also heard the noise and we both went outside but could see no problem. The next morning, again I could see no problem with outside of the house, but a week later, I found on the driveway a piece of curved metal, about 4 inches long by about 1/2 inch round cross section. Three weeks lat
er, I started wondering about that noise and wondered about the Merc, which had been parked outside the study window. I jacked up the front of the car. My worst fears were confirmed - the metal was a piece of the front off-side coil spring, that had fractured, leaving a broken and incomplete front spring that I had since driven over 1,000 miles on ! A new set of springs from Euro Car Parts (advertised in Autotrader) for about £55, and a new set of shock absorbers (struts) cost £90. Fitting was not easy, and extra tools cost £30, but it was worth the effort. When I removed the nearisde spring I found that this had also fractured, and a piece was about to break off. It seems that this is a common fault with Mercedes cars- even 'S' types ! So if you are looking at any Mercedes cars, I suggest that you get them on a lift in the garage workshop and check the springs. The car was sitting a little low at the rear, so I thought that the rear springs and shock absorbers would need attention. However, when trying to replace the rear springs, I found the new ones too large. I established that the 190 carburettor model needed special springs (expensive !). So I substituted a set of 'lowered springs' front and rear (£50 the set from Euro-Car Parts !!), but one of thesehas proved impossible to 'seat' properly. Thus the car is 'off the road' until the weather improves. Economy 25 mpg around town, up to 42 mpg on a run. Comfort Very comfortable in the front but no quite so good in the rear seats. I can drive 450 miles non-stop, when necessary, which is not possible in other cars I have driven for such distances. Conclusions We paid £7,000 (the net sum that my brother-in-law had been offered against a low mileage Audi). The current value is probably about £1,500, maximum, since I have seen many 190E (fuel injection) models at about this price. Definitely a bargain car at these sort of prices, as long as you buy one with no apparent faults and with a good body and interior. Parts prices from specialists are low, and you don't have new-fangled electronics and lambda sensors to worry about. It has been run as a third car/hack. I don't think we will ever part with it. Ouyr son has taken an interest in it and is considering running it when he is 21 years' old. Like our Renault Espace it is very much part of the family. © Sidneygee 2002
By miles and miles the best car I have owned. God knows why I sold it (traded it) for the ordinary-by-comparison C-Class. The beast was black and beautiful. It's spec gave it the air of real luxury and there was something reverential about driving this road god from a to b. It was typical Merc: heavy, occasionally ponderous, fabulously comfortable and majestic. It is cars that this that got merc it's name of making the best cars in the world. They do, rivalled only by Lexus, but I made on e hell of a mistake selling ours.

Patricia Wilton 1922 ~ 2011
Our energetic, independent and entrepreneurial "Grandma Pat" Wilton died peacefully at her home on March 24, 2011 surrounded by family. She was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. Pat was born Aug. 31, 1922 to Gladys and Lawrence Crehore in Fallon, Nevada where her father was the city engineer and her mother was an elementary school teacher. Pat lived through the Great Depression, and learned to face life's challenges head-on. Pat graduated from Churchill County high school as valedictorian and won a four year scholarship to Radcliffe College. She left Boston in 1941 to be near her parents when her brother Larry was taken prisoner by Japanese forces in the Philippines. Pat and her sister Margaret joined the war effort at an aircraft factory in Los Angeles where Pat was an intelligence clerk in the security division and her sister Margaret assembled war planes. After the war, Pat continued her education at Stanford College where she met fellow student Kent Wilton, a veteran U.S. Navy Second Lieutenant who was seeking an engineering degree. After graduating in 1946, Pat and Kent married in Fallon, Nevada, and then relocated to Salt Lake City. While Kent was employed as a civil engineer, Pat taught elementary school and special education in Salt Lake and Granite school districts. In 1970 she opened Olympus Cove Antiques, a successful business for over thirty years. At the age of 84, Pat "retired." Pat continued to be active, running the business through internet, which had become Olympus Cove China. She loved cooking, baking, and making hand dipped chocolates. She is survived by her brother-in-law Bill Blair, daughters Holly (Louis) Williams, Jody (Steve) Price, grandchildren Liz (Mike) Cross, Eric Balken, Hayden and Lauren Eatchel, step-grandchildren Sandra, Emily and Laurel Price, and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her husband Kent Keyes Wilton, her brother Larry (Dorothy) Crehore Jr., and her sister Margaret Blair. The family would like to thank: Dr. Stanley Wishner (Los Angeles) and staff for their devoted care of Pat and Kent; CNS Hospice staff for their caring; and the many friends and extended family members who provided support during her last days at home. Funeral Services and interment will be held on Tuesday, March 29, 2011 at 12:00 noon, Wasatch Lawn Mortuary, 3401 South Highland Drive in Salt Lake City. Family will receive family and friends on Monday, March 28, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. and Tuesday, March 29 from 11:00 to 11:45 a.m. at Wasatch Lawn Mortuary.

The Light Chaser: 'I can't not do it; it's a sickness'
BOISE, Idaho (KBOI) -- The eye doctor will tell you to look at a chart on the wall and ask, What do you see?
Deb Primus tells you to look at the world and asks the same question.
She's been a photographer since about age 7 and the passion burns hotter now than ever. She owes her interest to her granddad, who left her a nifty box camera, a work of art from back when cameras were still made of hardwood.
And she's grateful for the guidance she got from her dad.
"One thing he used to tell me when I was a kid was, 'Don't take a picture that doesn't have a person in it.'"
A quick check of her website and you're immediately grateful she ignored dad's advice.
"I like to shoot bicyclists and people walking, she says, standing on a crowded sidewalk in Hyde Park. "Lots of bicyclers come through here, so that's fun."
Earlier, on a trek through spectacular Kathryn Albertson Park, we encounter the Bellomy family--Tom and Stasi.
They're struggling to round up the kids, Emma and Isaac, and the family dog for a group portrait. Unprompted, Primus steps in and takes charge. You can read the gratitude on Tom's face.
Primus looks to the youngest member of the clan, Isaac, who's barely more than 2.
"And what's your name? Come in right between mom and dad? There you go. That's good."
Primus explains that her experience as a studio photographer comes in handy. By now, even the dog is on board.
Primus peers into the viewfinder and takes a moment to assess.
"OK, everybody ready?"
Click. Well, more of a synchronized whir.
A moment later, Isaac wanders over and wants a look. He seems fascinated by the big black Canon.
Primus hands him the camera and helps him compose a shot of mom and dad. Hours later, she's still smiling at the moment they shared.
"When I handed him the camera," she says with glowing satisfaction over a chai latte, "he just held it with those little tiny hands and he was so excited."
After all these years, chasing after kids and dogs is never a problem. It's chasing the light that consumes photographers like Primus.
But not only chasing it. Respecting it. Revering it.
I show her a photo she took of Albertson Park from some October gone by--a feast of reeds and riotous color.
She pauses for a moment and then offers, "The light was getting better and better and better. When I looked back, that was when the light was at its peak."
Given that kind of obsessive concentration, it's easy to see why, after an hour of walking, she's aching for the shadows to deepen.
Because she lives and dies by the quicksilver nature of time.
"The best hour," she explains, "is always the hour after sunrise and the hour before sunset, which is a bit more difficult when you're in the hills."
Primus is partial to reflections, and to sunsets. That is, once this Minnesota girl could find them.
"I searched for the longest time to find the right place for a sunset. I kept thinking I'm going to go up this hill and I'm going to see it." And then, "because I grew up in flatland, it was new to me to have to search and find a sunset."
What she isn't having trouble finding is popularity. She operates a small gallery inside the Green Chutes Artist Coop. It's here she is experimenting with metal plate photography--both playful and durable.
Kind of like the artist herself.
"People have asked me, 'Why do you do what you do?' And I say, because I can't not do it. I can't not do it."
So that's Deb Primus: raging against the dying of the light and pulling the rest of the world along with her.

You probably have to go back more than two decades to find the last time a trip to Old Trafford held such little fear for a travelling Liverpool team.
Manchester United's woes are well chronicled, so that comes as no surprise. And as critical as today's fixture is - for the rivalry, history and what it means to supporters - the real hurdle for United to overcome is on Wednesday night, when Olympiacos show up along with their 2-0 first-leg lead.
Because, frankly, nobody expects United to make the top four of the Premier League this season. It's mathematically possible, of course, but there are too many points to make up and too little time. The Champions League, on the other hand, isn't just about money and exposure, although that obviously matters to the Glazers and their beancounters. Nobody expects United to win it, but, at the very least, it's about having another shot at taking a major scalp, or, at least going down with some glory.
Loading article content
David Moyes would never say it, but the odds are he'd take a defeat today in exchange for advancing to the European quarter-final. That's United's current reality. Something else the manager would be unlikely to admit is that Robin van Persie's public support was probably not something he needed right now.
The Dutch striker talked about how happy he is with his "team-mates and manager" and how much he is "learning new things" under Moyes. But then he added that he'd be "delighted" to extend his current deal at Old Trafford, which expires in June 2016. Not exactly what Moyes needed to hear, because he had no real choice but to respond. And what was he going to say? Why, that he expected the club to give him a new deal and open negotiations soon.
It doesn't take a mindreader to figure out what Moyes would have said if only he could: that Van Persie really shouldn't be opening his mouth at this time. That there isn't a long line of clubs queuing up for his signature anyway. That a new deal would necessarily mean more money (because that's how football works) and United just gave Wayne Rooney a monster deal which means Van Persie will expect at least the same (around £300,000 a week). That Van Persie turns 31 this summer and a new contract would leave United on the hook for nearly £60 million right through to the eve of his 35th birthday. And that inking such a contract before the summer rebuilding job would make no sense whatsoever.
Of course, having received such a public vote of confidence from a guy who was supposedly unhappy (even though anyone re-reading Van Persie's original quotes post-Olympiacos would realise this dispute was a media creation), Moyes couldn't appear ungrateful. So he said what he had to say. And perhaps hoped the story would go away as quickly as it came up. A win today and qualification on Wednesday will do that trick for him.
Take away what happened before and since 2009 and there has been an uncanny parallel between Tottenham and Arsenal, who square off today in the North London derby. Arsenal have finished third or fourth in each of the past four seasons and are likely to do the same this year. Spurs have finished fourth or fifth in that time-frame and also look destined to do the same again. Both have reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League on one occasion; neither have won it. Both have been praised for their attacking football while being criticised for a supposed "soft underbelly". And both have proven year after year to be profitable clubs for their owners.
There are, of course, obvious differences. Spurs have had three managers in that time frame, while Arsenal have been all about Arsene Wenger. And while the latter have had spells where they've looked like potential champions, the former have not.
If you were cynical about this, you would assess these two clubs in the same way. You would conclude there is a reason why they hit a glass ceiling. The clubs that have finished above them, with the exception of Manchester United (outliers in every way, from the Sir Alex Ferguson factor to the huge annual profits) have been willing to spend big and take on losses. That applies to Chelsea and Manchester City and to Liverpool, who will likely end the season higher up the table.
It's a simplistic reading, but there is more than a grain of truth to it. Best practice and patient growth only takes you so far. And we've seen that whether you emphasise stability (Wenger) or are willing to make bold changes (Harry Redknapp to Andre Villas-Boas to Tim Sherwood) the last mile is always the toughest.
Arsenal won't change for the foreseeable future, so the focus shifts on Tottenham. A week ago, Sherwood questioned his players' "guts". On Thursday they were beaten at home by Benfica in the Europa League and he got into a touchline alter-cation with his opposite number Jorge Jesus. Ordinarily, not a big deal, but when a manager has been on a bad run and is surrounded by rumours that he's just a placeholder ... well, you can see the pressure mounting.
Sherwood has called on Daniel Levy, the Spurs chief executive and part-owner, to make himself heard. On that point, he's right. Spurs need a plan and they need to stick to it. It may not involve Sherwood, but Levy ought to give some kind of signal of where he wants the club to be and how he plans to get there.
SO West Brom have sacked Nicolas Anelka, just hours after he posted on Twitter that he was quitting. A statement on their website said the club consider the conduct of Nicolas Anelka on December 28 (the day of his quenelle gesture) to be gross misconduct. As a result they've given him 14 days' notice and are terminating his contract.
So, it's gross misconduct now but wasn't on December 28 to the point that they kept playing him until the FA commission banned him? Can't they make up their own minds as to whether it was or wasn't? Or were they simply "protecting their asset" when, post-quenelle, they played him in four consecutive Premier League games?
Opinions may differ among some as to whether the quenelle is anti-Semitic (or a form of gross misconduct). But nothing has changed - other than the FA ban - between January, when they were happy to play him, and now. A bit of consistency from West Brom wouldn't have been amiss.

Home improvement resolutions you'll actually keep
With the hustle of the holidays (mostly) over, now's a good time to start tackling all those little chores you've been letting pile up. Instead of setting huge New Year's resolutions you'll never keep, why not start the year off right with a few simple -- but useful -- around-the-house tasks that will add value to your home, and make your life easier?
Little steps can not only make your living space lovelier, they might also save you time, and get rid of clutter. Here are a few suggestions.
Eliminate "that place": We all have a junk repository somewhere in our homes. That place where the mail piles up. That place where the kids always leave their coats. That place where you stash any and all odds and ends that just don't go anywhere else.
Instead of going through another year of piling that place high, consider coming up with an organizational structure that can help keep it neat. A mail sorter, a drawer separator, or a cute new shelving unit can all be gotten for a low price, but their usefulness is invaluable.
Spring for new hardware: Painting your cabinets may be a bit of an ambitious task if you're not planning on overhauling your entire kitchen or bathroom, but fortunately, there are easier ways to brighten up these areas.
New fixtures, like a kitchen faucet, or other hardware, like drawer handles and cupboard hinges, can make the entire room look more attractive, and are pretty easy and inexpensive to replace. Just make sure you head to a home improvement store with a good return policy, and you can try out a few different options.
Go energy-efficient: Still eating up electricity with that beastly garage freezer? It's time to stop throwing money away -- and get more eco-friendly -- with a new appliance or two. Yes, it's a little bit expensive up front, but some cities (like Seattle) offer credits and even free pick-up to get rid of clunky, inefficient old machines. You'll also save money on your bills every month, which will definitely add up over time.
Find storage solutions: Garages, attics, and storage units are like magnets for old stuff you never use. And, much like a magnet, they seem to pull things in indiscriminately and with no sense of organization. Take a day off and really assess what you need to keep -- and what the best way to keep it is. Maybe it's time to replace old cardboard boxes with clear, waterproof containers so you actually know what's in them.
Maybe it's time to take a trip to the local Goodwill and donate some of your unused items to someone in need. Maybe all it would take is some heavy-duty shelves to get the boxes off the floor and out of the way.
Get the carpets cleaned: This is probably one of the easiest ways to make your home more comfortable and clean-looking -- because you really don't have to do anything other than scoot the furniture around. Still, it's a task that often gets pushed off again and again.
Make a pact to call for a carpet cleaning (preferably with an eco-friendly green cleaner, which you can find by Googling) by the time you've sent your holiday thank-you cards, and then stick with it. Start 2013 off with fresh carpets and a clear conscious.

Indiana House panel OKs 'farmers' rights' bill
An Indiana House committee has approved a bill supporters say is needed to protect the rights of Hoosier farmers, but opponents say would give special protections to big agribusinesses.
The House Agriculture and Rural Development Committee passed the bill Thursday on a 12-1 vote, sending it to the full House for consideration.
The measure passed the Senate last month and includes language stating Indiana law "shall be construed to protect the rights of farmers."
The Hoosier Environmental Council says that language has legal ramifications and would shield agribusinesses such as livestock farms that produce large amounts of manure from legal liability, "regardless of the harm those practices cause."
Republican state Sen. Carlin Yoder of Middlebury says his bill simply lets judges know "the General Assembly stands with our farming communities."

text: My car is booked into Awesome GTI in Manchester on 1st August to have a Milltek exhaust system fitted. The guy I spoke to at Awesome (Andy) was really helpful, and having spoken to Milltek, although it has not been done by them before, they are confident that the saloon version of the 2.0TFSI 2WD system will fit the cabrio, even with the extra cross-bracing in place. Milltek cannot provide the quad tips I wanted unfortunately, but the standard ones just clamp on. Awesome know of a place locally that will be able to fabricate some bespoke tips to fit the system, so it should be an easy job to swap them over. I'll be getting this done as soon as the S4 diffuser/valance is delivered. The R8 alloys are being sprayed next week in a specially mixed matt version of Vauxhall's "Technical Grey" (complete with flattening agent and matt lacquer). I'm also going to get the bodyshop to spray a pair of mirror covers the same colour. I have genuine S4 matt alu mirrors on the car at the moment, so I'll be having the original 'brilliant black' mirrors sprayed the same as the wheels - hope it looks OK, otherwise I'll stick with the S4 versions! Finally I'll be lowering the car (only slightly), hopefully at the same time the exhaust is fitted, as on the 19" alloys it looks a bit too high at the moment, even though it is an S-Line. Probably just going for Eibach springs at the moment - may go for full coil-over setup at a later date... So the car should soon look exactly as I want it!

Tramadol is a medication which is prescribed for people with moderate to severe pain. Tramadol can be prescribed to be taken regularly or else it can be taken only when pain relief is required. This medication is a strong opioid. Tramadol works to reduce the feeling of pain by working on the brain as well as the nervous system.
There are different kinds of Tramadol and these either are used for quick pain relief or others work slower and take a long time including probably hours to provide relief. The latter kind is called modified release.
Take right dosage of Tramadol based on the severity of the pain
If the adult has mild or even moderate, chronic, severe pain and does not require rapid analgesic effects of the medication, 25 mg every morning should suffice as an initial dose. Then 25 mg increments can be made every 3 days till 100 mg per day is reached. This means that 25 mg is taken 4 times a day. The Tramadol dosage can still be increased by 50 mg every 3 days till 200 mg is reached a day and after this, the drug can be administered every 4 hours – 6 hours but 400 mg per day cannot be exceeded.
If it is Tramadol extended release pill, then 100 mg daily once a day can be taken and it can be increased by 100 mg after 5 days based on the tolerance levels the person has to the drug. At the most, 300 mg per day can be administered.
For those people who require immediate analgesic effects,100 mg of Tramadol can be taken every 4 to 6 hours but the total dosage per day should not exceed 400 mg.
For those who are geriatric patients, the Tramadol dosage should be lower as there are more chances of decreased liver, kidney and other functions.
Follow this precautions when taking Tramadol
Tramadol though it is used for pain relief can be habit forming and this, when misused can cause addiction or even overdosage or death. Therefore, Tramadol needs to be taken with proper caution.
Tramadol should not be taken for a longer period than what is prescribed or in larger quantities than prescribed.
When tramadol is crushed and inhaled or diluted and injected, it can cause side-effects, over dosage and even death at times. The same goes for people who crush or even break or even open the extended release pills. This can even cause fatal consequences.
Tramadol can be taken for all kinds of pains but it should not be taken when alcohol, sedatives or even tranquilizers have been consumed few hours in the past. When Tramadol and alcohol are combined, the side effects caused can be dangerous.
Tramadol should never be taken when you are pregnant as the newborn may face withdrawal symptoms which are life threatening. Tramadol should not be taken by nursing mothers as well as those who are intending to get pregnant in the near future.

Team Photo
And He will give you all you need from day to day if you live for Him and make the Kingdom of God your primary concern.
- Matthew 6:33 -
The first mission trip to the Dominican Republic from First Baptist Church in Wallingford, CT began in 1990. On June 26th, the 2009 team headed by John Powers went on a mission trip to La Romana. FBC Wallingford was joined by 15 other churches to send this large team. There were 78 people in the team including more than 45 high school and college students. The oldest volunteer is 86 years old and has been going on the mission trips for the last 19 years!
The team was involved in evangelism as well as improving conditions in bateys and barrios and underserved Haitians through medical teams, teaching teams, and construction teams. The teams provided clean water by installing bio-sand water filters in homes and a medical professional saw over 600 people in clinics. The teams and the people there worked hand in hand in the construction of a school, a hospital and a home in a remote village.
Daily optional prayer time for the whole group in the morning drew an ever larger group of participants each day. Team members returned home blessed by powerful spiritual experiences from the prayer time, from sharing the Good News and from working hard to improve the quality of life for the disadvantaged.
This mission to Dominican Republic will continue in the years ahead. As the team completes the mission trip, plans for the next trip in 2010 was already underway.

Funds Available for Mental Health Programs in Schools
Children's Institute, Inc. invites school districts, public or private elementary schools, charter schools, other public agencies, and nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations to submit letters of intent for funding the implementation of Primary Project in New York State beginning the 2013-2014 school year. Fiscal support is contingent on funds received from New York State.
A maximum of $15,000/year per school site is available for up to two schools in a district ($30,000 maximum per district) for the first year. It is the intent to support programs for a three-year period with a declining grant award in years two and three (no more than 75% of year one and no more than 50% of year one respectively). In years two and three, schools must maintain the same level of child associate time as outlined in the application.
Funds may not be used for programs that are implementing Primary Project during the 2012-2013 school year. Funds may be used to expand the project to new schools in a district, contingent upon maintenance of effort in the existing school(s).
Web-based information sessions will be held in January 2013 for those interested in submitting a Letter of Intent. These sessions will provide more extensive information regarding Primary Project, including funding, staffing, and key variables which lead to successful implementation of the program. In order to submit a Letter of Intent,
a representative from your district/agency must be part of one of the web-based informational meetings. Recommended representatives may include the mental health professional (school psychologist, social worker, or counselor) and building administrator.
Additional information about Primary Project can be found by visiting our website: www.childrensinstitute.net/programs/primary-project

Help with allergy to sterile alcohol pads
These sterile pads cannot be used on my skin because within a day or two of where they are used I break out in a itchy rash. Medical professionals always look at me cross-eyed when I tell them this. I forgot before some injections a couple of days ago to refuse the pad until it was too late. Today I`m using cortizone cream to keep the itch down and it`ll likely be 2-3 days until it`s gone.
I know I am allergic to something in the pads but have no idea what (aren`t they supposed to be sterile?) and would like to find out. And, what else should I avoid? It`s possible this is why I`ve had issues with various products on my skin my entire life. I would really like to avoid other trigger products that might be similar to the alcohol pads.
Thanks so much.
It is possible that you could have a contact dermatitis. The best way to determine the exact cause of your symptoms is patch testing. This can be done by an allergist or dermatologist.

PS3 owners can choose between either a physical or digital purchase when Borderlands 2 hits UK retail next Friday (September 21st).
Sony has confirmed that the game will be released on the PlayStation Store at the same time it arrives at retail.
Furthermore, the game can also be pre-ordered on PSN right now.
In theory, the game will cost the same online as it does on the High Street too, sticking rigidly to the £49.99 RRP.
However, the PS3 version can already be had for as little as £35.85 and will likely be offered at around the £40 mark by some retailers.

Cosmetic dentists aren't all white coats and Novocaine. There is both art and science in a dentist's day. Case in point: what appears to be more or less routine restoration of missing or broken teeth - a dental crown or a dental bridge - is akin to principles of architecture.
Think of the arch of your mouth like the roof of a house. Each element of the structure relies on another. If a rafter breaks, the entire building will, sooner or later, buckle. So it is with your teeth.
The mouth is balanced; teeth function together. One missing tooth can cause permanent changes in your bite. Neighboring teeth drift into the empty space. The opposing tooth will actually grow longer and longer, further frustrating normal chewing. You'll tend to favor one side of your mouth over another. This old house is eventually doomed.
Dentists, then, are believers in tooth restoration and dental crowns. With all the new materials cosmetic dentistry offers today, virtually any mouth can be restored to good working order. A tooth that might have been lost five years ago now has many options for renewed vitality.
And the cosmetic results that can be achieved are, well, awesome. When it comes to new dental technologies, take advantage. Your cosmetic dentist will be there when you're ready to go for it.
The color, size, and shape of your teeth all have a profound impact on your appearance. While it is often the desire of people to improve the look of their smiles, it should be the goal of aesthetic dentistry, or cosmetic dentistry, to do this while still maintaining a "natural" appearance of the teeth. This often requires addressing one or all of the above-mentioned criteria. How is it that alterations in these three characteristics enhance your smile?
Tooth color is most commonly what people see first. As you get older, your teeth get darker. The reasons for this include normal changes that occur within the tooth and repeated insults from environmental conditions (coffee or tea stains, for example). Generally, then, darker teeth are associated with older age. The easiest way that cosmetic dentistry can correct this is by teeth bleaching. But this alone may not entirely create a natural-looking appearance.
Size and shape also are major factors that define the appearance of teeth. The most common cause of changing tooth size and shape over time is tooth wear; and the most common cause of wear is tooth-to-tooth contact, or grinding. Wear on the edges of the teeth can give the appearance of aging because you do not show as much of your teeth when you smile. Another factor that affects how much of your teeth show when you smile is the loss of skin tone as you age.
This loss of tone causes your face to sag, thereby showing less of your upper teeth and more of your lower teeth. The aesthetic dentistry treatment to enable more teeth to show when you smile will depend on the cause. If the cause is due to wear of the teeth, dental veneers or dental crowns can be used to regain the lost length and fill out the smile. On the other hand, this may not have a significant effect if the cause is due to the loss of skin tone associated with age. If this is the case, plastic surgery may be indicated as part of the treatment.
Wear on teeth also will make the edges of the front teeth very flat. As this occurs, the edges of the front teeth will form a straight line rather than the more youthful appearance when the two front teeth are slightly longer than the teeth next to them. Also, as they wear, the proportion of length to width will be altered. Teeth will start to appear more square in their shape rather than rectangular.
Basically, any treatment that counteracts the above-mentioned appearance changes has the ability to enhance the appearance of your teeth and smile. The aesthetic dentistry treatment can vary from teeth bleaching to dental crowns or dental veneers. Depending on the severity, other forms of treatment such as braces and gum surgery also may be indicated to enhance the appearance and function of your teeth. It is important to remember that all areas need to be addressed. If treatment for teeth that are worn and dark only involves teeth bleaching, the final result will be whiter teeth that are still worn and short. The teeth will not appear natural, as there will be a conflict between white teeth (youthful) and worn teeth (aged) that do not work together. Instead, it is necessary to correct the color, size, and shape to create a more natural appearance.

Published: December 12, 1986
Larry Davis was indicted and arraigned in the Bronx yesterday on charges of shooting four suspected drug dealers to death in a robbery six weeks ago. In other cases, he faces charges of shooting six police officers last month and of killing a drug dealer in September.
Dressed in a black jacket and jogging pants, the same clothes he was wearing when arrested last Saturday after a 17-day manhunt, Mr. Davis pleaded not guilty to a 22-count indictment accusing him and others of murdering the four drug dealers in a Bronx apartment Oct. 30.
The stocky 20-year-old defendant stood next to his lawyers without handcuffs before Justice Burton P. Hecht during the 20-minute arraignment in State Supreme Court in the Bronx. Four armed court officers were directly behind him, and six armed attendants guarded the doors.
After the arraignment, Justice Hecht ordered Mr. Davis back to Rikers Island to await his next scheduled court appearance, on Dec. 29. Work for Second Grand Jury
A second grand jury is considering charges against Mr. Davis growing out of the shootout with the police on Nov. 19. He is accused of firing at officers who tried to arrest him at the apartment of his sister, Regina Lewis, at 1231 Fulton Avenue, near 168th Street, in the Morrisania section of the Bronx. The police were trying to arrest him on murder charges.
The authorities said he shot six officers before eluding more than 20 others. The Bronx District Attorney, Mario Merola, said the second grand jury, which is expected to charge Mr. Davis with at least 11 counts of attempted murder, would probably take another week or so to complete its work.
Earlier in the day, Mr. Merola announced that indictments had been returned against Mr. Davis and a man accused as his accomplice in the drug killings, Ricardo Burgos, 17.
Each was charged in a separate 22-count indictment with the shooting deaths of the four men in an apartment at 829 Southern Boulevard. Two More Suspects
Mr. Burgos, dressed in a T-shirt and black trousers, also pleaded not guilty to the charges, in the same courtroom a half-hour before Mr. Davis was led in.
Last Monday, in announcing the start of grand jury investigations into Mr. Davis's activities, Mr. Merola said Mr. Davis and Mr. Burgos were part of a small group of gunmen who preyed on drug dealers to seek money or drugs.
Yesterday, the prosecutor said that another two people were believed to have taken part in the Southern Boulevard slayings and ''are known to the police and are being sought.''
Mr. Merola added that both defendants indicted yesterday were ''being charged as shooters'' in the crime. He said the authorities had witnesses to the shootings, ''but not necessarily eyewitnesses.''
At Mr. Davis's arraignment, a Legal Aid Society lawyer representing him requested a postponement of the arraignment because of the rapid pace of events, with his client's indictment and arraignment the same day. Justice Hecht denied the motion.

Kelly Rowland X Factor return a possibility, say ITV insiders
Kelly Rowland will return to the X Factor judging panel this year, according to sources at ITV.
Kelly Rowland was expected to quit The X Factor and she dropped heavy hints she would return to the US due to homesickness.
Kelly also got in a series of heated rows with fellow judge Tulisa Contostavlos last year, both on and off camera.
However, insiders on the ITV programme have told The Sun the singer shouldn't be ruled out of the running.
They are reportedly in the process of deciding which women should be on the panel and Kelly's name is still among them.
Adele is another star X Factor bosses are hoping to nab, but they admit that probably won't happen.
A source told the newspaper: 'It seems to be taken as read that Kelly is not coming back but that is wrong.'
The insider added that X Factor mogul Simon Cowell and executive producer Richard Holloway would be happy to have her back.
'It's at an early stage and discussions have yet to start. But Kelly is very much in the mix,' the source claimed.
The auditions for X Factor 2012 are kicking off this weekend, so bosses on the show will need to decide quickly who will be sitting on the judging panel this year.

How Liberals Would React to a Health-Care DefeatBy
Today, the Supreme Court begins hearing oral arguments in the case brought by 26 states to overturn President Obama's health-care law, the signature achievement of his first term. Were the court to strike down the law, it would be a tremendous blow to Democrats and huge a setback in the decades-long effort to extend health insurance to all Americans. But in the short term, it might possibly improve Obama's reelection chances by energizing a liberal base that is less enthusiastic about their candidate than four years ago.
The health-care law has been fairly unpopular throughout its two-year existence, with polls consistently showing a higher percentage of people disapproving of it than supporting it. But as a recent New York Times/CBS News poll demonstrates, views of the law break down pretty cleanly along partisan lines: A majority of Democrats support it, while a slightly larger majority of Republicans oppose it. A negative court decision would anger Democrats not only because it would invalidate the central liberal achievement of the past several decades, but because it would almost certainly be viewed as a political—rather than a jurisprudential—action. A Bloomberg News poll earlier this month showed that nearly 75 percent of Americans believe the court's decision will be based on politics. The numbers are slightly higher among independents (80 percent) and Republicans (74 percent) than Democrats (67), but given liberals' fraught history with recent court decisions (Bush v. Gore, anyone?), their number would surely leap if the health-care law were struck down.
The first opportunity for liberals to express anger about this presumed political affront would come on Election Day—and as any political consultant will tell you, there is no better motivator than anger to get people to the polls.

Inadequate Regional Financial Safety Nets Reflect Complacency
To the extent that financial contagion from the United States and the euro area crisis has occurred in Asia, this paper focuses on the importance of strengthening the regional financial safety nets. By conjecturing that efforts to prevent and manage a crisis are the essence of providing such safety nets, the author argues that efforts made by Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)+3 officials, especially in the provision of liquidity support during a crisis, are far from adequate. Even with improved financial conditions and stronger regulations in ASEAN+3 member countries, contagion can and will strike. Making the Chiang Mai Initiative Multilateralization more effective is therefore urgent and critical.

Before Food Court, City Mall Opens 'Elite' TASMAC Outlet
By Express News Service | Published: 31st December 2013 07:33 AM |
Last Updated: 31st December 2013 07:33 AM | A+A A- |
Continuing their drive to open elite wine shops in all the city's leading malls, TASMAC threw the doors open to their brand-new elite wine shop at the Ten Square Mall in Koyambedu on Monday morning. What was truly surprising, beyond the lack of clamouring tipplers that the CMBT area is infamous for, was that this was the first shop in the 1.50 lakh sqft mall to actually open.
"The food court, supermarket and other shops are expected to be open in the first few months of 2014, but the wine shop will be functional from today," said a mall employee. This comes almost immediately after the elite shop at Ramee Mall in Teynampet was opened earlier this week and the store at Phoenix Marketcity was opened on November 24.
The liquor marketing corporation's plans to set up elite stores retailing expensive brands targeting an upmarket clientele was floated at the end of 2011.
The shop in Spencer Plaza, the first inside a mainstream mall, was set to be converted and mall owners were approached to give them space to set up similar stores.
Walking through the empty floors of the almost-finished mall, finding the elite TASMAC outlet isn't difficult - practically all the activity points toward the shop on the second floor.
Unlike the first shop to be opened at the low-key Alsa Mall in September, this store is way more aesthetically designed. "We have a lot more space here (3,000 sqft) and we have tried to make it a pleasant experience for the customers who want premium liquor in the area," said a TASMAC official who was there for the store opening. As with the other stores, liquor there costs between `500 and `16,000 and is laid out on wooden racks, like stores in Bangalore and Goa.
With more women and shoppers having access to liquor purchases in malls, revenue from the shops has been rising. Though TASMAC officials were unwilling to let on much about the sales volume at the elite stores, an employee of UB group said, "The sales in the shops at Phoenix and Alsa have hit `4.5 lakh and `2.5 lakh last weekend and that is significant on just word-of-mouth publicity. This will go up next year," he said.

For once in my life, I feel at a loss for words to say how wonderful, enjoyable, insightful and delightful the Stage West Community Playhouse production of a play actually is.
Okay, that's four words, so I'm really not completely at a loss.
But Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks is so fresh, so incisive, and so doggone well done, both by actors Betsy Glasson and Peter Clapsis and by the crew, that it's simply hard to put it all into words.
It's the story of a woman-of-a-certain-age living in a retiree-filled luxury high rise condo in St. Petersburg Beach who hires a middle-aged man for six weekly ballroom dance lessons. She's spent her adult life as the suppressed wife of a judgmental Baptist preacher; he's spent his partly in New York City pursuing a dance career and, after putting on a few pounds, back in his native state of Florida.
Playwright Richard Alfieri was born in Florida and, after graduating from Yale University, settled in New York to write feature films, novels, and plays. Even so, he must have spent his formative years crouched outside the doors of Florida high rise apartments, because he perfectly captures the feelings, concerns, fears, and hopes of the over-60s set that inhabits these places, as well as the people who drive by them.
The play is filled with lines that Neil Simon only wishes he could write and truths about dispirited and disappointed women worthy of Henrik Ibsen. The difference is that Alfieri's lines cut to the bone, even as they make us smile or laugh out loud.
I could share a page full, but I won't, because those lines deserve to be a surprise when they're spoken and too fine to be given away for the price of a newspaper. So, go buy a ticket. You won't be sorry.
But don't take the kids — or the grandkids. This is a show for grown-ups, with coarse, profane language that is essential to the plot, but caused gasps in the opening night audience — before they caused laughter.
Clapsis, a professional actor and voice-over artist, is sheer joy as the plump, emotionally and sometimes physically damaged dance instructor Michael Minetti. His delivery is so natural that it sometimes feels as though he's forgotten his lines and is simply carrying on a conversation.
Ms. Glasson is radiant as Lily Harrison, the seemingly carefree lady with internal scars as deep as Michael's external ones. Ms. Glasson's eyes sparkle to the back rows, her lithe body and smooth moves completely enchant.
Choreographer Bill Dimmitt shows why he has been able to earn his way as a ballroom dance instructor for more than 20 years, giving Clapsis and Ms. Glasson just the coaching they need to be convincing instructor and pupil. Director Myndee Washington, herself an actor, singer, dancer for 27 years, helped her cast and crew to capture the essence of the characters and the situations to near perfection.
The play was written in 2001 and on Broadway in 2003. It's been translated into 12 languages and had productions in more than 20 countries, so its themes have universal appeal.
Still, its local references, lingo and scenarios make it extra special for those of us who live in Florida and have lived through so much that Alfieri so eloquently details in this play.

Antigo Little League looks for more at state
Submitted: 07/18/2013
Story By Joe Dufek
- Antigo is off to the state Little League tournament this weekend. The 11-12 year old team won the District 5 title last week.
It was the second straight time they won the crown.
This year the tournament is in Waupun.
When you need to pay for hotel rooms, meals, and travel for players, coaches, and parents - it gets pretty expensive.
Antigo had a couple of brat fries this week. They raised about $2000 to help cut some of the costs.
Last year, Antigo finished second at state. The players had fun helping out at the fund raisers.
"The best thing is doing 'sign-dancing'," says Nevin Cornelius - an outfielder and catcher on the team. "We've got our brat fry sign and just dance telling folks to come over."
This is Nevin's first trip to state.
But some players were on last year's state team. Sebastian Noskowiak likes Antigo's chances.
"Our whole team can pitch," Noskowiak explains. "And we've got all kinds of kids who can hit and somehow get on base."
Their first game is Saturday afternoon.

"It's rugged enough that you have to have a little bit or stamina and a little bit or grit to actually make it through the course," said YMCA Aquatics and Youth and Family Director Matt Steingraber.
Some of the kids even trained for the event.
The top three in each age group got awards.

A Rhinelander woman worries about a sex offender who moved into her neighborhood
Submitted: 09/22/2017
Play Video
- A Rhinelander mom said her lifestyle completely changed when a new neighbor moved in.
She used to love the close proximity and the ability to walk to almost anything in town.
She has two young kids and regularly checks the sex offender registry.
The Rhinelander mom wishes to stay anonymous. We'll refer to her as Linda.
Linda found out a sex offender moved in a few doors down from her by flipping through a local newspaper, She saw a small box at the bottom page with a notification.
"He kind of just snuck in," said Linda.
William Huntington moved close to Linda's house in May. However, Linda says she knew nothing until she did research of her own in July.
"When I saw what he was found guilty of I was in shock. I was in complete shock," said Linda.
He was convicted in Dane County for repeatedly sexually assaulting his 8- year- old neighbor about twenty years ago. He's now required to wear a lifetime GPS monitoring system.
Dana Wszalek works with the Department of Corrections in Rhinelander as a Regional Chief. Her office supervises people like Huntington in the community.
"What we do is not a cookie cutter type of approach to supervision; it's relative to what their risks are based on their case dynamics," said Wszalek.
State law requires high risk sex offender to live at least 1,500 feet from churches, schools and playgrounds. Restrictions on other sex offenders are left to local offices.
The Oneida County Sheriff's Office says there are no ordinances for sex offenders in Oneida County.
"They have different life experiences. They are a part of the community," said Wszalek.
Wszalek understands the wariness community members might feel.
"As a parent it's important to be aware of who's in your neighborhood," said Wszalek.
Linda said one of her 6- year- old child was planning on walking to school with friends this year, but instead they'll get driven.
"I feel like the neighborhood we moved into to be able to have these things has been taken away," said Linda.
Linda said she was shocked she didn't get a call or knock on her door from law enforcement.

A probable cause affidavit says Howard's son took his own life because he lived in constant fear that he would find his mother dead from an overdose. Relatives told investigators Howard has a drug addiction.
The affidavit says the 40-year-old found her son unresponsive on a couch in their home on July 10. It says she confronted him hours earlier about taking her pills, including 30 Xanax and 26 Lortabs.
It will be up to prosecutors to file formal charges.

Lee man injured in motorcycle crash
Tue, 03 Jun 2014 08:24:32 GMT —
A Lee man was injured in a motorcycle accident just before 2 pm yesterday on Thomas Rd. in the Town of Lee.
The Oneida County Sheriff's Office says that 70-year-old Lyle Jackson was riding his 1984 Honda motorcycle on Thomas Rd. when he lost control due to unsafe speed.
Jackson tried to regain control of the motorcycle and traveled off the roadway. The front tire hit a guide rail along the road, causing the motorcycle to overturn, throwing Jackson into the roadway.
He suffered injuries to his face, arms and upper body and was sent to the hospital.
Jackson will have to appear at Lee Town Court for failing to reduce speed for a special hazard and failing to keep right.
