Replacing the Alternator/Oil cooler block off seal DIY
2 Attachment(s)
First, I would recommend is to make sure the vehicle is cool as with any job working on or around the engine. Safety first!
1. Drain all coolant into an absolute clean bucket or whatever container you have if you wish to reuse the coolant. 2. Drain your power steering(hydraulic) fluid in the same manner with a clean bucket. That's $40 a qt if you contaminate the fluid or simply just put new fluid in.(Thats up to you) After these first two steps you can proceed to start doing the maintenance on your beautiful 7. 3. Carefully remove the Active Stabilizer Bar. Be sure not to break to smaller lines going into the oscillating motor. Label or mark the steel braided lines to make sure they go back into their original position. There are 2 brackets with 2 nuts on each one that secures it to the front axle. Remove those I believe they are 10mm. Last portion to remove the bar are the swing supports which are connected right above both front tire. NOTE: If the stud spins with the nut, you must insert a torx bit or torx screwdriver whatever you prefer. I'd recommend a bit on a ratchet. I believe that size is a Torx 30. Now you can fully remove the Active Stabilizer Bar. 4. Next is going to be your bottom pulley or guide. Held in by 2 bolts. Remove that (having someone taking the tension off of the belt). Pull the drive belt up and out of the way so that it doesn't somehow come into contact with any hydraulic fluid (power steering fluid). If it does come in contact the belt must be changed. According to BMW that is. I wouldn't test that. Being that it's a critical part. 5. Power steering pump. There are three mounting points. Two bolt on the front and 1 one the back side. Now pay very close attention to the back mount(#6 in the pic below) make sure when you re-assemble this that you know how many threads are showing. Its basically an adjustment knob. Failure to do this will cause an annoying squeal on the drive belt. This is the main part to worry about re-installing in my opinion I didn't know what was causing that awful squeal. 6. Next will be your engine mount brace. There are 4 torx bolts(size 12 female torx socket) mounted to the side of the engine(this is where a lot of extensions and universals will come into play). Last bolt is mounted pointed downward through the engine mount. You can reach this one by looking to the ground from the top by the suspension/steering fluid reservoir. 7. Last but not least is your alternator bracket. Very simple to remove this one. Once removed take out the flattened old $4 seal and install your new one.(#2 in the second pic) Now just re-assemble in reverse order and service and top off all fluids drained. I hope this helps with anyone who has this problem or just doesn't want to pay for the maintenance. |
How long is this job? I have this problem now, got an appointment week after next to have it done and the shop is going to charge me $200 in labor if their guy can do it, but if not I still need it done.
$200 is a good deal on labor for this.

For those DIY'er tid bit of info as I'm currently battling this DIY rite now ! I think the hardest part to remove was that DAM rear power steering pump nut! I finally was able to reach the nut from the top reaching down as if your going to straight down for that top engine mount bolt in the following step! Easier than anything & i can't believe I struggled so long with this bump amongst our ****ty rainy jersey weather!!!

Third Day Of Jury Deliberations In Ventura Defamation Lawsuit
Friday, July 25, 2014
(St. Paul, MN) -- For the third day in a row, jury deliberations will continue in the Jesse Ventura defamation trial. The former governor is suing the estate of "American Sniper" author and former Navy SEAL Chris Kyle. The lawsuit says a story in the book that depicts Kyle punching out the governor at a California bar in 2006 is a complete fabrication. Yesterday, jurors deliberated for the entire day except for when they asked the judge two separate questions. Neither question was revealed to the public. By the end, no verdict was reached.

A Tale of Two Unknowns: The Fed's Second 2007 Emergency Meeting
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The Federal Reserve seriously was concerned it didn't have enough staffing to service the discount window in 2007.
Transcripts from the Federal Open Market Committee -- the Fed's policy-making wing -- from the early days of the financial crisis suggest that Fed members sometimes found themselves unfamiliar with the financial instruments that were beginning to cave and frightened by the prospects of encouraging more banks to approach its discount window to remain liquid.
During a second emergency meeting on Aug. 16, 2007, FOMC members debated the impending statement it would release the next day that said the central bank would reduce the primary credit rate -- one of three discount window programs it offers -- by 50 basis points to 5.75% in an effort to encourage banks to request loans from the regional Reserve banks.
Six days prior to this meeting, the FOMC had held its first emergency conference call of the approaching financial crisis to inform members that the central bank would be issuing a statement later in the day to say that it would provide liquidity to maintain "orderly functioning" of the financial markets. Troubles with Washington Mutual and Countrywide (now part of Bank of America (BAC - Get Report)) had tormented markets and the commercial paper markets in Europe and the U.S. started to face pressures.
But banks rapidly became more illiquid than the Fed had anticipated in the first meeting, and members opposed a bailout option. Members avoided bailouts as an option because it wasn't clear in August 2007 just how unhealthy conditions would later become. General worry among Fed bankers, according to the transcript, was that illiquidity was spreading and banks were afraid to approach the discount window. The discount window -- where banks go to ask the Reserve banks for loans -- carried a negative stigma. "Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

30 Ways to Strengthen Your Relationship with More Vulnerablity
"This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." ~~ http://open-site.org/Science/Physics/Modern )">Albert Einstein, 1954
Sort of speaks to the dilemma of our time, doesn't it? We want things to be a certain way, but then when they don't happen like we want, we rather narrowly try to control or bend reality to our desires.
When that doesn't work, we often tend to get discouraged. If we believe that we can't change something or that we are a victim of our circumstances, we tend to avoid even thinking about it, and the masking continues. If we could just allow all the energies and let them flow, we might find ourselves plugged into life, liberated.
Let's face it, Love is uncertainty. Being vulnerable to a lover or spouse implies a lack of control. Yet.. "We're never so vulnerable than when we trust someone, but paradoxically, if we cannot trust, neither can we find love or joy." ― Frank Crane
9. "Vulnerability is really the only authentic state. Being vulnerable means being open, for wounding, but also for pleasure. Being open to the wounds of life means also being open to the bounty and beauty." Don't mask or deny your vulnerability: it is your greatest asset.
"Be vulnerable: quake and shake in your boots with it, the new goodness that is coming to you, in the form of people, situations, and things can only come to you when you are vulnerable, i.e. open." ― Stephen Russell, Barefoot Doctor's Guide to the Tao: A Spiritual Handbook for the Urban Warrior

4.5 Fabulous starter kit for kids! bowsie1 | 01/02/2012 | See all bowsie1's reviews (125) Highly recommended piece of kit for kids who love their music a bit louder than they should do!!! Picked this up for under a hundred quid and the sound with a big dollop of bass is brill!!! CD/Radio and fab iPod dock is fabulous and a benefit to any home for kitchen, bedroom or office. Fabulous pice of kit an really funky looking with big, boomy speakers. A steal!
4.5 AMAZING SOUND!!! redcargirl | 28/12/2011 | See all redcargirl's reviews (1) This is a must have HiFi System.....the sound is amazing....if you like loud music with bass this is the one for you.....deffo's the best i have heard!!! :o)
4.5 Perfect. Nickipoo22 | 07/12/2011 | See all Nickipoo22's reviews (1) I bought this as an early christmas present for myself, and i couldn't have found a better piece of kit. the bass is so good and blows you away, then mix that with the crisp general sound of the audio it is a wonderful product. I initially thought that the colours were slightly off-putting when i saw the image on the internet and that there were more aesthetically pleasing products out there, but actually it fits into my university room really well, and i feel that they would fit into any room, modern - old, cluttered - minimalist etc...I looked at a lot of hifis before i chose this one, philips, and panasonics, but this seemed to win on all the reviews i looked at, and it has certainly not disappointed! This compounded by the fact that one of my mates bought some specialist speakers for 400 (just the speakers) and these sound the same if not better!...honestly get these fast, absolute bargain!also thank you play.com for such fast delivery, 2 days on free delivery, just excellent!
4.5 Amazing Speakers for the money callum82 | 26/07/2011 | See all callum82's reviews (1) Very good speakers, Very good quality. Only thing is on FULL volume with the bass booster thing on, it will crackle a bit if playing hip hop or dubstep. But for the money you pay its amazing, couldnt have asked for anything better.
4.5 Stylish and powerful system. bobsco64 | 15/02/2011 | See all bobsco64's reviews (10) Always went for hifi separates in the past but this is a perfect little system - top brand, stylish, powerful and a perfect addition for any IPod. With a CD player and radio included it is an absolute bargain for the price, more so if you check out the Playtrade prices (Don't be afraid to go for a "refurbished" model). The addition of a couple of phono sockets and a DAB radio would have been nice but again for the price you can't have everything.
4.5 AMAZING!!! AdrianStokes | 19/01/2011 | See all AdrianStokes's reviews (1) These speakers are absolutely amazing especially for the price, someone mentioned you cant have AUX, that is not true I can plug mine into it (It plugs into the PC IN socket) so it will play any object that you can plug a regular set of headphones into, got incredible bass, will go very loud if you want it to, will fit any ipod as well except shuffle but you can plug that in via AUX cable by plugging into PC IN socket. Also it will charge the ipod while it plays the music however you will not be able to charge the Shuffle.
4.5 Love it! jlrm052725 | 16/01/2011 | See all jlrm052725's reviews (1) Looks good, sounds great! Good quality.Would definately recommend it to people that are mostly interested in quality sound and simple functions.
4.5 Happy customer Gmanwatp | 10/01/2011 | See all Gmanwatp's reviews (1) This works great with my iphone, has superb sound and is brilliant value for money at 98 quid.Would recommend to everyone :-)
4.5 Nice system! daveslough | 07/01/2011 | See all daveslough's reviews (4) Lovely bit of kit for the price,but it does NOT have ANY inputs other than a 3.5mm PC socket at the front,no AUX,TAPE,NOTHING!!!So be careful,it DOES have a remote control,and is a bargain at this price.
4.5 Impressive!! Lucas1991 | 06/01/2011 | See all Lucas1991's reviews (1) I bought this spare of the moment as I really wanted something that pumped out good quality music and bass. I was amazed when it arrived really quickly and then to top it all, the sound quality was outstanding. Lovely and loud and the bass is well... superb!! REALLY REALLY recommended!

Linux and Enterprise: A Winning Combination
Last year, Linux's star began to rise with many companies announcing Linux support for their products. In particular, the "Big Three" of database companies, Informix, Oracle and Sybase, announced ports of their products to Linux. As a result of these announcements, it is clear that Linux is ready to enter the world of enterprise computing in a major way. In the past, large databases were one of the key missing ingredients.
The call for "applications, applications and more applications" is being answered. Witness the fact that Corel announced that all of their products will be ported to Linux. Many of the applications coming out for Linux are freely available and even Open Source. Need a spreadsheet? Take a look at xxl from the University of Nice. How about a word processor? Maxwell is an up-and-coming free software solution still in development and of course Word Perfect 8 is available from Corel. Even free accounting software is being developed in Germany under the name Linux-Kontor.
The other missing ingredient often mentioned is a user-friendly desktop—Linux now has that, too. KDE is currently ready for use, and GNOME is not far behind. Both provide that "ol' black magic" for the desktop.
All the major distributions are working on making installation and configuration easier. Red Hat and Caldera have had the easiest installation in the past with the RPM package, but S.u.S.E. and Debian have also made their installations easier.
I've spent a lot of time talking to people about why they chose to port their products to Linux and the answers given were no surprise. The top three reasons are:
Stability: robustness is always the most desired attribute of any operating system.
Cost effectiveness: in particular, the fact that the cost of an operating system does not have to be passed on to customers.
Support: does this one surprise you? It shouldn't. With a network of programmers worldwide willing to work on problems as soon as they are found and announced, Linux support bypasses all the red tape that comes packaged with commercial products.
Linux has long been number one as far as ISPs and Internet servers are concerned. A survey by Netcraft in January 1998 showed that over 50% of all web servers used Apache. The Internet Operating System Counter at http://www.hzo.cubenet.de/ioscount/ has polled 810,000 European Internet servers in three different categories: web servers, FTP servers and news servers. According to these polls, Linux is the most-used operating system on the Internet. Linux was number one in each category with a market share of 26.9% for web servers, 33.7% for FTP servers and 25.7% for news servers.
With numbers like these and an estimated seven million users, Linux can no longer be considered "for hackers only". Therefore, Linux Journal has decided to publish three enterprise solution supplements this year, of which this is the first. In each supplement, we will bring you reviews of new business applications, articles about how Linux is being used to solve particular business problems and interviews with business people who are choosing Linux. Write and let us know what you would like to see in upcoming supplements.
Marjorie Richardson
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Walla Walla won two of three matches it played on Friday. The Warriors toppled Tacoma, 25-23, 25-18, 16-25, 25-19, lost to NWAACC Eastern Region foe Blue Mountain, 25-21, 25-20, 18-25, 16-25, 15-7, and clobbered Clackamas, 25-11, 25-16, 25-13.
Walla Walla's Nikki Long and Sharsti Goff were named to the all-tournament team. Long recorded 51 kills and Goff had 101 setting assists.
"Nikki had lots of critical kills and blocks," Walla Walla coach Tim Toon said. "Sharsti was competitive in every phase of the game."
Brittany Dominguez, Libby Kern, Laekynn Culpepper and Carley Miller also contributed to the runner-up finish, Toon said. Dominguez had 55 kills and 12; Kern had 38 kills and 17 blocks; Culpepper dug 69 balls and Miller added 49 digs. Kayla Hanus set 86 assists.
"Brittany and Libby were the best tandem of middle hitters at the tournament," Toon said. "Laekynn and Carley held down back-row duties with lot of great ball contacts. I credit Kayla with excellent setting.
"We came together as a team this weekend," Toon said. "All the teams we played were tough and we went toe-to-toe with all of them. I think we are now ready to make a quality run in East Region play."
The Warriors resume league play Wednesday at Yakima.

5 More Tips To Connect and Communicate With Your Kids (EXPERT)
- Give Children a voice and a choice. If your goal as a caring adult is to help your child to help themselves, then you need to allow them to make choices, and sometimes learn from their mistakes. There are lots of ways to encourage kids to communicate and connect with the family. Check out the affordable and effective parenting books at http://amzn.to/kindlebyjudy You will be glad you did.You are not going to allow them to choose whether they will attend school or not, or whether to jump off the roof into the bushes or the concrete. You are going to guide them to have responsibility for their choices. Instead of "put this green shirt on and let's go, we are late again." Say "do you want Cheerios or yogart with fruit for breakfast? Maybe tomorrow if we get up earlier, we can make ham and cheese omelets, but today you get to choose between Cheerios or Yogurt."
- Encourage the process, rather than praising the product. It is often easy for parents to praise, praise, praise or criticize, criticize criticize. Neither one gets the result we are hoping for. Praising lavishly everything a child does gives them an unrealistic view of life.
Never give up. Just keep trying to find ways to build strong connections of communication with your kids.
I have confidence in you and your ability to touch the hearts of those you love in gentle and supportive ways. For more support, be sure to sign up for the free e-zine at http://www.askauntieartichoke.com You will be glad you did.

Chandler Mansion: Colby shows JR a box of their dad's guns. She turns her back and JR secretly grabs a gun and puts it in his bag!!!! What is he going to do with it? Is he going to shoot someone? Scott shows up with Adam's new will, which does not include JR! Oh oh! JR accuses Scott of having something to do with his being disinherited ever since Scott convinced his mom and dad to adopt him. Scott says he's lost his dad's respect and money all on his own. JR says no one will take anything from him again. He grabs his bag and leaves. Where are you going with that gun JR?!!?! Colby calls Adam and tells him how out of control and angry JR is about the will. The park: Mott (Scott and Madison) are sitting on a bench with hot dogs again!!! Madison is sorry his family is falling apart. She is there for him whatever he needs. He tells her it helps a lot. She says she misses him, but appreciates him taking it slow and giving her space. She suggests they give it another shot, unless he thinks it's too late. He kisses her!!!! YAY MOTT ARE BACK TOGETHER! Applesauscy goodness!!! I'm so happy!!!!!!!!!!! Colby walks in on them and she says she is sorry but then says no she isn't. She says, It's about time. ROFL! She tells them that her dad's coming home. Martin zoo: Tad wakes up and panics when he doesn't see Dixie in bed. He goes downstairs and is relieved. Dixie is preparing for AJ's visit. She assures him she isn't letting their second chance go. YAY! Tad wants to go see Jesse. Tad says see you later. He likes how normal that sounds. See you later haha! AJ is there and he is looking for a snack, as JR stops by. AJ runs to his father and says he misses him awww! Dixie worries because Marissa isn't there to supervise, but JR really wants to see him. She gives him a few minutes and leaves the room. JR tells AJ to grab his favorite toy because they're going on an adventure. Dixie returns and AJ is about to run upstairs when Dixie wonders what is going on. AJ tells her what JR just said. Dixie makes AJ to go to another room as JR tells Dixie he can't let lesbians raise his son. He's taking AJ, comparing it to how she fought for him. Dixie points out it was different. She adds that he can't leave with or without AJ because Babe could be alive. DOH! No Dixie that isn't smart!!!!! You have no proof! Don't get his hopes up! Ellie's grave: Poor Jesse!!! Liza is there for him. She says she understands because she has been there. He doesn't know why he is telling her all of this ROFL! CONfusion: Jesse and Tad are together. Jesse tells him Maya took Lucy and left. Tad tells him not to give up on Angie. Jesse would never give up on her because she's the best part of him. Awww! Krystal's BJ's: Randi and Frankie run into Maya and Lucy. They hang out together and then Frankie and Randi leave to pick up Angie. Liza enters and overhears Maya on the phone saying she has to drop her classes because she can't get a job to accommodate school. Liza thinks Angie and Jesse would help her, but she can't ask them for anything more. Yeah I don't think that is a good idea either. The hospital: Cara and Ryan Jr (Griffin) are together. They disagree about David. Cara knows David's methods are out of whack, but he's saving lives. She also tells him that she thought her cancer returned and David helped her through it. She's fine though, but she is pregnant. He asks if she's going to keep it. She looks stunned and says of course. She's always wanted to be a mother and will not give it up. He says okay. However, he suggests she never tell David. Not ever. UGH! The police station: Angie is with David. She thinks he just wants love and to feel connected to someone. Well damn who doesn't? She says that's why he does the things he does. However, he's not the only one who has suffered loss. David is sorry for the loss of her daughter. She says it's been torture, but the only way to deal with pain is to stare it down with the help of people who love him. She urges him not to put up his walls and to let her in. He assumes she just wants to make sure he continues treating her, but she assures him she cares what happens to him. She gives a damn! She totally gets him!!!! She thinks there's hope for him yet, but David says he's probably going to prison. She says that it's never too late and urges him to give Pine Valley the people he's holding back, including himself. Great scene!!!! The scene made me cry. Frankie shows up to pick her up. David asks Angie to visit him in prison. She assures him he hasn't seen the last of her. YAY! Jail: David is in his jail cell. Cara visits. She wanted to say goodbye. She also says you have a right to know. She tells him she is pregnant with your baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY! And the look on his face! I can't wait until tomorrow!!!! Hubbard home: Frankie brings Angie home. He turns on the lights. Angie turns her head to where the lights are. I'm thinking can she see it?! Angie asks Frankie if he turned on the light!!! He says he did and she says she can see!!!!!!!!!!! WOOT WOOT! Viewing 1 post (of 1 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

I always liked xylitol candies and gum
even as a kid. Not sure why. Never liked saccharin, aspartame, sucrolose, or even stevia though. HFCS tends to be too sweet.
Sugars aren't dangerous if you eat them as they were intended-- ie whole fruit...I expect if you ate the whole sugar cane it wouldn't be bad either because it would have more fiber and whatever else might have a dampening the effect. If you overload like we do for sure it is really very bad for you. It is just like alcohol minus the brain effects.

"Good Book but unfinished"
The book kept me intrigued until the ending. It ended abruptly with many issues unresolved. Will there be a sequel?
Great book with many twists and turns. I almost didn't buy this book because of the negative reviews. So glad I didn't listen to them.
Couldn't continue listening to this. Too much unbelievable tough guy talk, very little story line, very little action.
"Awful Narration"
Perhaps the storyline is good, but I can't tell because the narration is soo bad. Maybe this guy can perform for men, but he can't narrate for women (at least in this book). Even though it's only 2+ hours long I can't listen to it anymore.
Boring,silly I wish I could get a refund for thus book. It Was so bad that after an hour I couldn't take the torture anymor and had to put an end to my pain.
"Narrator is not suitable for character"
Unfortunately because I listened to L.A. Requiem, before purchasing this book my expectations were that the narrator would portray the kind of "tough guy" persona that we expect from a "private eye". This narrator is too gentle with a sing,sing voice that has become so irritating that after only a few chapters into the book, I cannot contimue on with listening to it. I don't understand why they change narrators with series books. Don't they understand that the narrator becomes the character. Audible should have a refund policy for these types of circumstances.
"Great Book"
I enjoyed all of her books. I enjoy the lighthardnessr and humor she brings tot he character.
"One of Stephen King's Best"
Having just reached voting age, Jack Kennedy was the fist president I ever voted for and I remember his assassination as if it was yesterday. Stephen King did a great job referencing the events that led up to the loss of what may have been one of the greatest presidents we've ever had. I enjoyed this book from the beginning to the end so much that I will listen to it again.
"Great Book"
Because there was a change in the narrator and because of the complaints from the naysayers, I thought I would have a problem listening to this book. But, I am happy to report that I thoroughly enoyed the book and the narrator. My only complaint is that I have to wait so long for another book. Jim Butcher get to work!
"Great Book, Great Narrator, Missing Ending"
I really enjoyed the suspense and fast pace of this book. But I was dissapointed that the book left you hanging at the end and looking for closure.

SHOW # 1508 June 1 2012
by Thrill
posted Jun 1 2012 5:16PM
Congratulations to this year's winner of the 85th Annual Scripps National Spelling Bee. The 14- year- old won $40,000 for correctly spelling 'guetapens', a French word meaning something to the effect of 'ambush' or 'trap'. It's really no surprise that she won, as her name is SNIGHA NANDIPATI... and she's had to spell THAT her entire life. Anyway, Snigha now has a childhood accomplishment to brag about. On that note, 18- year- old eric Arty at Manhattan Theatre Lab High School in New York City has something to really, really brag about. He just won a $500 bet with 4 friends for being the first, and presumably the only, one of them to make out with their hot- ass 26- year- old global studies teacher. The kiss was caught on tape and he collected. Meanwhile, the teacher, Julie Warning, has been 'reassigned'. Personally, I never won a spelling bee or made out with a teacher, and the ONE award I did win in my school days, which was for a historical research paper, I completely plagiarized from another student. Actually, the only impressive accomplishments I have from my school days was missing 120 days of my junior year and being expelled from high school 4 times. It's not the stuff that makes a role- model, but it's no less impressive. That leads to today's question: WHAT WAS YOUR MOST IMPRESSIVE ACCOMPLISHMENT AS A YOUTH? AND WHAT WERE YOU REALLY KNOWN FOR?
Won the Bank of America award for Home Ec... what the hell do you win for that?
Was the state champion in wrestling
Only went to school for two months his senior year and still graduated
Made a silver ring; it won a competition and ended up at S.A.M. Precious!
Wrangled 29 wolves into cages... WTF???
Ran the Baltimore Marathon in 3 hours... I lived in Baltimore for 23 years and never we had a marathon
Was a "nobody" in high school... then he hooked up with the senior prom queen, then he was 'somebody'
He was known as the kid who had a headache and popped a Viagra (by accident) instead of aspirin... had to call out from work because his boner wasn't going anywhere
In 4th grade he won a Frisbee throwing contest... threw it 210 feet... no one else got it past 75 feet
Played semi- pro basketball in Europe at age 17... now he's a long shoremen
Won the punt, pass and kick contest at age 9... 'say punt, pass, kick three times fast and see what dirty word you say
OK bitches, off to the BJ Shea Comedy Riot.
Until Monday, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!"

He would like to sell access to mp3 files he has of him doing his motivational thing.
So, can anyone suggest the best shopping cart/credit card payment solution? Hosting and web design isn't a problem, I'll be handling that. I'm just looking for a solution which would take payment and then (perhaps) allow the user a limited time access to the mp3 file?
Any suggestions gratefully received.
All the best, George
Just to clarify, however, once the user has access to the mp3 file (and they've paid), they're welcome to keep it and play it for ever. It's the access to the mp3 download which would need to expire or be limited in some way, if possible.
I guess it would be fine for one user to have access to one download without expiring, providing it doesn't involve a password or access code which could be shared with people who haven't paid.
Those are my thoughts, anyways, I'd be happy to rethink them all with the right cart solution.

But after such a strong run-up, some experts think it's time for investors to take some profit.

The Vertex and Axis of Symmetry - Problem 5
Alissa Fong
Alissa Fong
MA, Stanford University
Teaching in the San Francisco Bay Area
Alissa is currently a teacher in the San Francisco Bay Area and Brightstorm users love her clear, concise explanations of tough concepts
One of the most important points of a quadratic function is the turning point, or vertex. The vertex will always represent either the maximum or minimum y value that a quadratic function will reach. It is always placed on the vertical axis of symmetry. To find the x value of the vertex from standard form, we could complete the square or do x = -b/2a. The y value comes when we substitute this x value back into the original function. If you complete the square or have an equation given to you in vertex form, the vertex is the opposite of what is in the parentheses with x as the x coordinate, and then the constant that is outside the squared base as the y value.

FOXNews.com - Report: Brother of Actor Mark Ruffalo Shot in Beverly Hills - Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment
Okay, can someone explain to me what a "suspicious shooting" is?Report: Brother of Actor Mark Ruffalo Shot in Beverly Hills
Wednesday, December 03, 2008
13 Going on 30 actor Mark Ruffalos brother has reportedly been shot in the head, according to a report from TMZ.com.
Scott Ruffalo, 39 is clinging to life at a Los Angeles hospital following a suspicious shooting in his Beverly Hills apartment, TMZ said.
According to a report in People magazine, the shooting took place, at approximately 1:40 a.m.
Police are not sure if Ruffalo is the victim of a criminal act, TMZ said
Mark Ruffalo has appeared in such films as The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Blindness.
Does that mean they suspect it was not self-induced? Or, that the gun became demon-possessed and attacked the actor? Or, that someone else did this?

Buttons, Emma Jeffery, Fabric, Hand Stitching, Intermediate, Machine sewing, Thread, Winter,
For December's project, I wanted to complete my handmade clothing collection with something a little special, so I decided to sew a party dress - suitable for celebrating my achievement and as something to wear on New Year's Eve.
I decided to use the beautiful Yoke Dress pattern by Salme Patterns. I chose a gorgeous gray 100% wool with a sparkly/glittery organza for the yoke.
The Yoke Dress pattern is available as an instant download which is my favorite way to purchase a pattern. It requires very little effort to print the pattern at home and to tape the piece together before cutting.
This particular pattern is beautifully written and straightforward. I love the pleated detail in the skirt and the yoke is perfect. I began by cutting each pattern piece in the corresponding fabric and clearly labeling them for future reference.
The bodice front and back have darts for shaping. To create neat, smooth darts, run your stitches from the outer seam edge to the center point, but do not finish your stitching by running back and forth with the machine. Instead, remove the bodice from the machine once you have reached the end point, and tie the threads to secure.
Following the pattern's directions, I completed the bodice and yoke by sewing the organza to the wool. Sewing with organza can be tricky and I recommend using a brand new needle in your machine to help avoid snagging and pulled threads.
As recommended in the directions, I used French seams to finish the shoulder seams. This is particularly useful when sewing with a sheer fabric, as all raw edges are hidden from sight.
It took a little time to get the positioning of the skirt pleats in the right place, but I was determined to make them as perfectly aligned as possible, so it was worth a bit of extra effort and perseverance. Once the pleats are aligned, you can sew the skirt to the bodice.
This dress has an invisible zipper the runs through the skirt and into the bodice.
To finish the yoke, bias tape is sewn at the armholes and neckline. I used a store-bought bias tape in a similar color to my organza, though you could make your own.
I chose a sweet little metal button for the back of the neck closure.
After hemming, my dress was complete! I am delighted with how this dress turned out - I especially love the little details - but it also looks good and it feels great to wear. It's the perfect dress to wear on New Year's Eve and a pretty great way to finish up my resolution projects.

Distributed Hash Tables, Part I
Listing 3. update.py
def update(node): for x in range(k): oldEntry=node.finger[x] node.finger[x]=findNode(oldEntry, (node.id+(2**x)) % (2**k))
Listing 4. finger-lookup.py
def findFinger(node, key): current=node for x in range(k): if distance(current.id, key) > \ distance(node.finger[x].id, key): current=node.finger[x] return current def lookup(start, key): current=findFinger(start, key) next=findFinger(current, key) while distance(current.id, key) > \ distance(next.id, key): current=next next=findFinger(current, key) return current
So far we have more or less defined the original version of the Chord DHT design as it was described by the MIT team that invented it. This is only the tip of the iceberg in the world of DHTs, though. Many modifications can be made to establish different properties from the ones described in the original Chord paper, without losing the logarithmic performance and guaranteed lookups that Chord provides.
One property that might be useful for a DHT is the ability to update the finger table passively, requiring periodic lookups to be done in order to refresh the table. With MIT Chord, you must do a lookup, hitting O(log n) nodes for all k items in the finger table, which can result in a considerable amount of traffic. It would be advantageous if a node could add other nodes to its finger table when they contacted it for lookups. As a conversation already has been established in order to do the lookup, there is little added overhead in checking to see if the node doing the lookup is a good candidate for the local finger table. Unfortunately, finger table links in Chord are unidirectional because the distance metric is not symmetrical. A node generally is not going to be in the finger tables of the nodes in its finger table.
A solution to this problem is to replace Chord's modular addition distance metric with one based on XOR. The distance between two nodes, A and B, is defined as the XOR of the node IDs interpreted as the binary representation of an unsigned integer (Listing 5). XOR makes a delightful distance metric because it is symmetric. Because distance(A, B) == distance(B, A), for any two nodes, if A is in B's finger table then B is in A's finger table. This means nodes can update their finger tables by recording the addresses of nodes that query them, reducing significantly the amount of node update traffic. It also simplifies coding a DHT application, because you don't need to keep a separate thread to call the update method periodically. Instead, you simply update whenever the lookup method is called.
Listing 5. xor-distance.py
def distance(a, b): return a^b # In Python, this means a XOR b, # not a to the power of b.
An issue with the design presented so far is the paths to a given node are fragile. If any node in the path refuses to cooperate, the lookup is stuck. Between any two nodes there is exactly one path, so routing around broken nodes is impossible. The Kademlia DHT solves this by widening the finger table to contain a bucket of j references for each finger table slot instead of only one, where j is defined globally for the whole network. Now j different choices are available for each hop, so there are somewhere around j*log(n) possible paths. There are less than that, though, paths converge as they get closer to the target. But, the number of possible paths probably is greater than 1, so this is an improvement.
Kademlia goes further and orders the nodes in the bucket in terms of recorded uptime. Older nodes are given preference for queries, and new references are added only if there are not enough old nodes. Besides the increased reliability of queries, this approach offers the added benefit that an attack on the network in which new nodes are created rapidly in order to push out good nodes will fail—it won't even be noticeable.
It's important to understand that these different properties are not tied to a particular DHT implementation. We gradually have built up a DHT design from scratch, developed it into something that resembles Chord, then modified it to be more like Kademlia. The different approaches can be more or less mixed and matched. Your finger table buckets can have 1 slot or j slots, depending on whether you use modular addition or XOR for your distance metric. You can always follow the closest node, or you can rank them according to uptime or according to some other criteria. You can draw from several other DHT designs, such as Pastry, OceanStore and Coral. You also can use your own ideas to devise the perfect design for your needs. Myself, I have concocted several modifications to a base Chord design to add properties such as anonymity, Byzantine fault-tolerant lookups, geographic routing and the efficient broadcasting of messages to enter the network. It's fun to do and easier than you think.
Now that you know how to create your own DHT implementations, you're probably wondering what kind of crazy things you can do with this code. Although there probably are many applications for DHTs that I haven't thought of yet, I know people already are working on such projects as file sharing, creating a shared hard drive for backing up data, replacing DNS with a peer-to-peer name resolution system, scalable chat and serverless gaming.
For this article, I've tied the code together into a fun little example application that might be of interest to readers who caught my interview on the Linux Journal Web site about peer-to-peer Superworms (see Resources). The application is a distributed port scanner that stores results in the simulated DHT (Listing 6). Given a fully functional DHT implementation, this script would have some handy properties. First, it allows multiple machines to contribute results to a massive scanning of the Internet. This way, all of the scanning activity can't be linked with a single machine. Additionally, it avoids redundant scanning. If the host already has been scanned, the results are fetched from the DHT, avoiding multiple scans. No central server is required to hold all of the results or to coordinate the activities of the participants. This application may seem somewhat insidious, but the point is it was trivial to write given the DHT library. The same approach can be used in other sorts of distributed projects.
Wrong Algorithm
the last else in distance should return (2**k)-(b-a), otherwise id would exceed the longest possible distance, i.e. the ring size.
Btw, nice article ;)
Re: Wrong Algorithm
After the last else in the distance function, b < a, so (b-a) is negative. The sum of (2**k) and (b-a) will still be less than (2**k).
Wrong Algorithm
The findNode should return current.next
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

A few years ago, I read an article in National Geographic Magazine. It was about India, specifically about the outcastes, the lowest, poorest people in India. It showed a photo of a man who was of this caste. His traditional, inherited job was to clean out septic tanks, toilets and sewers WITH HIS BODY! He had very few tools to work with. And in the hot town in which he lived, since it is not permitted for anyone of a higher caste (the toilet and septic tank owners) to give him any water to wash with, he had to walk in the heat , covered with human excrement for several miles to his home, a small shack with no plumbing, and wash in a drainage ditch. The photo showed him, a dark, rather handsome man who stated he did not know his age but was probably in his early 30s, climbing out of a septic tank, smiling the most beautiful smile, happy to have his picture taken, even covered in human waste. The article stated that it was unusual for a man of this caste doing the work he did to live as long as he had because most of these people die of one of the many diseases to which their work exposes them.

And I complain about my job!

Every time I think of this man, he is my inspiration.
Me myself and I-

Iam the universe and the universe is me
My love, who is also my best friend. He is the sweetest, kindest, most loving person I have ever known, and he inspires me to be a better person.
Anyone brave enough to stand up for fairness and take the consequences. Fortunately there are a few examples around - Nelson Mandela in South Africa is obvious, the guy in China who has just won the Nobel Peace Prize would have to be another. Liu Xiaobo. Both imprisoned for their pains.

Was glad to read today that a group of Chinese officials has written a letter asking that freedom of speech be improved in China, though it may not do much good. So he inspired them.

A friend of mine called, Bond, James Bond (Sean Connery). Because, he has been there, seen it and done it, all. And i'm his only, "Un-catchable Spy". Who's following his foot-steps through the snow.
Not so good lately .. I don't know why exactly .. maybe I'm just taking so much time focusing on the bad things in my life, and forgetting to enjoy life and nature , kids and chocolate :/
