Sales Incentives To Sell Homes
From time to time I run across good articles I believe might help Sellers and/or Buyers in the Pelican Bay market. Last Sunday's edition of the Naples Daily News published an article from bankrate.com that I think Sellers should take a moment to read.
Sales Incentives Work Only If Price Is Right is a good article that discusses offering different sales incentives to Buyers or selling brokers. While offering Buyers cars, boats, gift cards at interior design studios and even pets might make your home attract more showings, pricing your home at market price is still the main component in getting your home sold.
One of the incentives mentioned in this article is to increase the showing brokers commission pay out. Did you know that showing Realtors® can search the MLS by the commission amount they will be paid? Given the amount of listings on the market, some Realtors® would prefer to only show homes that pay out a higher commission rate. I have had success in the past with increasing showing brokers commission amounts to increase showings and ultimately get my listings SOLD.

Most political analysis of America's awful economy focuses on whether it will doom President Obama's reelection or cause Congress to turn toward one party or the other. These are important questions, but we should really be looking at the deeper problems with which whoever wins in 2012 will have to deal.
Not to depress you, but our economic troubles are likely to continue for many years — a decade or more. At the current rate of job growth (averaging 90,000 new jobs per month over the last six months), 14 million Americans will remain permanently unemployed. The consensus estimate is that at least 90,000 new jobs are needed just to keep up with the growth of the labor force. Even if we get back to a normal rate of 200,000 new jobs per month, unemployment will stay high for at least ten years. Years of high unemployment will likely result in a vicious cycle, as relatively lower spending by the middle-class further slows job growth.
This, in turn, could make political compromise even more elusive than it is now, as remarkable as that may seem. In past years, politics has been greased by the expectation of better times to come – not only more personal consumption but also upward mobility through good schools, access to college, better jobs, improved infrastructure. It's been a virtuous cycle: When the economy grows, the wealthy more easily accept a smaller share of the gains because they still came out ahead of where they were before. And everyone more willingly pays taxes to finance public provision because they share in the overall economic gains.
Now the grease is gone. Fully two-thirds of Americans recently polled by the Wall Street Journal say they aren't confident life for their children's generation will be better than it's been for them. The last time our hopes for a better life were dashed so profoundly was during the Great Depression.
But here's what might be considered the good news. Rather than ushering in an era of political paralysis, the Great Depression of the 1930s changed American politics altogether — realigning the major parties, creating new coalitions, and yielding new solutions. Prolonged economic distress of a decade or more could have the same effect this time around.
What might the new politics look like? The nation is polarizing in three distinct ways, and any or all of could generate new political alignments.
A vast gulf separates Tea Party Republicans from the inchoate Wall Street Occupiers. The former disdain government; the latter hate Wall Street and big corporations. The Tea Party is well organized and generously financed; Occupiers are relentlessly disorganized and underfunded. And if the events of the last two weeks are any guide, Occupiers probably won't be able to literally occupy public areas indefinitely; they'll have to move from occupying locations to organizing around issues.
But the two overlap in an important way that provides a clue to the first characteristic of the new politics. Both movements are doggedly anti-establishment — distrusting politically powerful and privileged elites and the institutions those elites inhabit.
In political terms, both sides are deeply suspicious of the Federal Reserve and want it to be more transparent and accountable. Both are committed to ending "corporate welfare" — special tax breaks and subsidies for specific industries or companies. And for both, Washington's original sin was the bailing out of Wall Street.
Mere mention the bailout at any Tea Party meet-in or Occupier teach-in elicits similar jeers. The first expression of Tea Party power was the Utah Tea Party's rejection of conservative Republican senator Robert Bennett because of his vote for the bailout. At the Republican state convention, which ultimately led to the election of Senator Mike Lee, the crowd repeatedly shouted "TARP! TARP! TARP!" The Occupiers, too, began on Wall Street.
The historian Richard Hofstadter once wrote a famous essay about the recurring strain of, as he put it, a "paranoid style in American politics" — an underlying readiness among average voters to see conspiracies among powerful elites supposedly plotting against them. He noted that the paranoia arises during periods of economic stress.
But the web of interconnections linking Washington and Wall Street over the last decade or so — involving campaign contributions, revolving doors, and secret deals — has been so tight as to suggest that this newer anti-establishment activism is based on at least a kernel of truth.
Economic stresses caused Americans to turn inward during the Great Depression, and we're seeing the same drift this time around. Republican fulminations against the "cult of multiculturalism" are meeting similar sentiments in traditional Democratic precincts — especially when it comes to undocumented immigrants. Alabama and Arizona have spearheaded especially vicious laws, yet polls show increasing percentages of voters across America objecting to giving the children of illegal immigrants access to state-supported services.
Meanwhile, Americans are turning against global trade. Notwithstanding new trade agreements with South Korea, Panama, and Colombia, only a minority of Americans now believes trade agreements benefit the U.S. economy. A growing percentage also want the U.S. out of the World Trade Organization. China has emerged as a special bogeyman. The Democratic-controlled Senate recently passing a bill to punish China for under-valuing its currency, but China-bashing is becoming bipartisan. Mitt Romney accuses former U.S. leaders of having "been played like a fiddle by the Chinese."
A third division likely to widen if the economy remains bad runs along a demographic fault-line. Many aging boomers whose nest eggs have turned the size of humming-bird eggs are understandably anxious about their retirement, while America's young — whose skins are more likely than those of boomer retirees to be brown or black — face years of joblessness.
The jobless rate among people under 25 is already over 17 percent. For young people of color it's above 20 percent. For young college grads — who assumed a bachelors' degree was a ticket to upward mobility — unemployment has reached 10 percent. Yet these percentages are likely to rise if boomers decide they can't afford to retire, and thereby block the jobs pipeline for younger people seeking employment.
After the enactment of Medicare in 1965, poverty among the elderly declined markedly. But poverty among America's children continues to rise. Yet children don't have nearly as effective a lobbying presence in Washington. AARP spent $9.7 million on lobbying during first six months of this year, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. By contrast, the Children's Defense Fund spent just $48,245 last year. Yet because the future lies with the young and with an increasingly diverse America, politicians and parties looking toward the longer term will have to take heed.
How our political parties and leaders will cope with these three fault lines is far from clear, partly because the lines don't all move in same direction. Young Americans tend to be more anti-establishment than older Americans, for example, but are also more open to other nations and cultures. By the same token, a generational war over the budget might be avoided if anti-establishment movements succeed in reducing corporate welfare, raising taxes on the rich, and limiting Wall Street's rapacious hold over economic decision making.
What seems certain, however, is that continued high unemployment coupled with slow or no growth will create a new political landscape. This will pose a special challenge — and opportunity. If our political leaders don't manage the new dividing lines effectively they could invite a politics of resentment that scapegoats certain groups while avoiding the hard work of setting priorities and making difficult choices.
On the other hand, if political leaders take advantage of the energies and possibilities this new landscape offers, they could usher in an era in which the fruits of growth are more widely shared: between elites and everyone else; between the beneficiaries of globalization and those most burdened by it; and between older Americans and young. This itself could reignite a virtuous cycle — a broad-based prosperity that not only generates more demand for goods and services and therefore more jobs, but also a more inclusive and generous politics.
There is a precedent for the second alternative. The structural reforms begun in the Depression decade of the 1930s generated just this kind of virtuous cycle in the three decades after World War II. And in devising and implementing these reforms, the Democratic Party came to represent Americans with little power relative to the financial and business elites that had dominated the country before the great crash of 1929. That political realignment was the most profound and successful of the twentieth century.
Will it happen again? At this point, both parties are doing remarkably little given the gravity of the continuing jobs depression and the widening gap of income and wealth. Taming the budget deficit is the only significant issue anyone in Washington seems willing to raise yet Congress seems incapable of achieving any significant progress on this.
And the budget itself is only indirectly related to the deeper questions of how to restart economic growth, how much of that growth should be allocated to public goods such as the environment or education, and how the benefits of that growth are to be shared.
Political elites are worried about thunder on the right and the left, but they show scant understanding of what these growing anti-establishment forces signify. Meanwhile, the nation drifts.

Windows 8 has probably had more detractors than any previous version from Microsoft. After all these years, it would seem that Microsoft would really involve their users and create something stunning – instead of stunningly awkward.
While I absolutely love the new Windows 8 ultrabooks ( like the Lenovo Yoga and the Acer S7 ), the operating system is still what brings the experience down.
Here's a list of some of the worst features, along with some workarounds.

text: New to the site so just thought i'd say hi. I've recently purchased a 320d 2002 saloon and the cold weather has done me no favours. Firstly, the N/S washer jet cover disappeared and now the washer system is leaking...arrrrh! I think the leak is from the O/S washer jet spray nozzle but i'll have to check it out properly when i get the chance. At the moment i'm filling the bottle up every other day! Any of you guys had similiar problems and therefore be able to provide any advice? Be much appreciated.

Will there be a remaking of internet governance?
Will there be a remaking of internet governance?
The World Conference on International Telecommunications is just starting in Dubai and it could have immense consequences as it is meeting to consider the governance of the internet. It could therefore affect us all by setting out the relationship between governments and the internet. It is the International Telecommunications Regulations that are to be negotiated and as with other large international agreements and negotiations there is no certainty that there will be any agreement at all but what is sure is that there will be numerous competing blocks and ideas. For a start there is the question of who pays for web content; is it the sender or the user. This is not really a big issue in countries that already have a web infrastructure and where the constraints on paying for the internet are not great but could have an immense impact on less developed countries. The mobile operators want countries to establish their own networks and pay for their development so meaning the operators don't need to engage in this large outlay themselves.
This is however not the only fault line that is likely to be apparent another is likely to be over differing models of internet governance; should the internet remain under the (benevolent) thumb of the United States through ICANN, should it go to the ITU, or should there be a new body in control of internet governance? So far internet governance has been characterised more by a lack of governance rather than governance and this is something many states would like to change internationally, something that many worry would place in jeopardy the internet's openness. Russia and China in particular have been advocating for much more control over the internet by states with Russia's proposal advocating that "Member States shall have equal rights to manage the Internet" and "Member States shall have the sovereign right to establish and implement public policy… on matters of Internet governance, and to regulate the national Internet segment". The stated intention is to give more power to non-western states which as in the IMF and World bank have in the past had little influence on internet governance. But their proposals are not the only ones; India and Brazil also have their own competing ideas. Yet all of this is rejected by many such as Vint Cerf who argues "A state-controlled system of regulation is not only unnecessary, it would almost invariably raise costs and prices and interfere with the rapid and organic growth of the internet we have seen since its commercial emergence in the 1990s."
Debatabase debate 'Should a new global body, the United Nations Committee for Internet Related Policies, take over internet governance?' http://idebate.org/debatabase/debates/international/should-new-global-body-united-nations-committee-internet-related-policies
4 years 13 weeks ago
I am looking at this event, not closely, but I know of it. Please forgive me if I say anything wrong and feel free to correct me.
The difference in "should" and "would" is astronomical in this case.
I believe that there should not be internet governance at all, much less international internet governance. If control by one government is bad enough that the citizens of that government has to satisfy the false security in exchange for liberty, what happens when those citizens have to suffer the same fate, from 1289 from countries all over the world and even 5 telecommunication organizations? http://files.wcitleaks.org/public/S12-WCIT12-ADM-0004!!PDF-E_18Nov.pdf
Would there be internet governance? Seeing as how this has no proper civilian oversight and no advocacy groups to present their stances, ITRs and ITU have a very vague interpretation to amendments with no enforcement or dispute resolution; any member state can do anything they wanted. How can something be pressed onto the populace without both sides and an objective view on such a huge topic? http://www.lawfareblog.com/2012/11/wcit-12-an-opinionated-primer-and-hys...
I don't believe there should be internet governance, especially international or intergovernmental. However, I believe there will be.

I was asking the 'would' precicely because I thought it was pretty certain that most internet users would be against online governance whereas I am much less sure whether it will happen or what form it will take when it does. Notably in the Global Internet User Survey 2012 on the question 'who would you trust most to manage the global internet?' only 8% said Multi-national non-governmental organisations and 6% the United Nations compared to 21% for Software or search engine companies and 24% for Telecommunications companies or Internet Service Providers.

Most post-draft analysis is rooted strictly in subjectivity, simply because it's difficult to measure how well a team drafts without being affected by individual biases or perception.
So, with this in mind, Draftmetrics' Tony Villiotti created a statistical index in order to attempt to measure how well NFL teams draft, and in turn, whether the data matches with our perceptions.
In other words, if there's a consensus that a team drafts well — teams like Green Bay or Baltimore come to mind — is it an automatic validation of its draft record?
After Villiotti crunched the numbers — both over a 10-year (2003-12) and a five-year period (2008-12) — the Dolphins ranked as the second-most effective drafting team in the last five years.
So, how exactly did Villiotti arrive there?
"The biggest obstacle in doing an objective analysis is to select the metrics that do the best job of measuring performances," Villiotti writes. "DRAFTMETRICS decided to use a weighted combination of four measures to measure each team's draft success."
The four metrics that he used to create the index: (1) total games started; (2) number of players active for the 2012 season; (3) average share of annual starts (calculated by finding what percentage of total annual starts a team's draft class accounted for and then averaging that out over time; (4) Pro Bowl selections.
Those metrics can be affected by a combination of draft position and other factors, of course, but Villiotti also created a formula to try to determine what a team's "expected rank" would be based on position and total number of picks. In the five past years — which also coincides with General Manager Jeff Ireland's tenure in Miami — the Dolphins outperformed their expected rank (eight) by six spots.
With five picks in the first three rounds of this April's draft, the Dolphins will look to add to their mostly homegrown core.

As regular readers of The Vintagent know, I have a 'thing' for unusual bikes, and a special place in my Pantheon for the Majestic motorcycle from France. I've already given several expository posts on the subject (which you can read here), but here in Bavaria, where all motorcycles seem possible to ride, a freshly restored 1929 Majestic with a 500cc ohv Chaise engine was proffered. My visit marked the premier starting event for this bike, and as the film below shows, the mechanicién knew his stuff:
The Majestic is the physical embodiment of the Art Deco aesthetic, a streamlined torpedo which suggests Speed and Modernity, and although it fails to deliver in the former case, it was certainly and extremely forward-thinking design, an attempt at an 'ideal' motorcycle, whose formula has been echoed through the decades by modern factories such as Yamaha and Bimota.
Structurally, the 'New Motorcycle' (as it was called in prototype form) is built similar to an automobile of the era, with 'C' section steel channels forming the chassis in twin, low rails along either side of the power train, atop which is a shapely light-gauge steel body of attractive and curvaceous line. Classic Deco stuff. The engine compartment is covered in a mesh, and the body is louvered along the sides to dispense with heat.
The true innovation comes with the hub-center steering, not unique, nor was Majestic the first two-wheeler to use such, but the execution is modern and works well. Suspension, as on a Morgan car, is via sliding pillars along either side of the front wheel - the rear is rigid. Conventional controls operate the machine, including a hand-shifter, which is a simple rotary device with a knob - no 'gate' for holding the lever in place, just a round boss with Roman numerals indicating the gear (there are III). Steering is via normal handlebar with a push-pull rod connected to the front hub.
So, the important question; what is it like to ride? Sitting astride the machine there is no sense of anything unusual, that one is atop a totally enclosed vehicle with hub-center steering, only the handlebars and extensive (smart too) instrument panel can be seen from the perch. Starting the Chaise engine is a doddle, and a typical 20's bonk emerges from the fishtail muffler. There is valve clatter below the perforated engine covering. So far, so normal.
Moving out, the steering is very light, and has no inertial sluggishness for such a long machine. As the speed rises, one notices a certain pendulum effect at the front wheel, and a light hand is required on the 'bars to prevent a weave. Even with a delicate touch, the front wheel seems, not hunting exactly, but not rail-like in steering - constant minor correction is necessary to keep the plot moving in exactly the right direction. I imagine that a little work perfecting the trail of the steering geometry would cure this minor effect; it's a very small matter for such a radical design, and the road-holding and steering feel true at all times and perfectly stable and safe. As the engine warmed up, I felt completely confident in swift cornering, and was rewarded with a very nice ride with zero drama.
What I wanted, though, was a different engine. The Chaise unit is, I'm sure, perfectly serviceable and totally conventional for the time, but such an innovative motorcycle cries out for a smooth and modern engine, with significant power output. A prototype of a 'New Motorcycle' with a Cleveland four-cylinder engine was shown at the 1928 Paris Motorcycle Show; this would have been a perfect combination of power and engine noise. Unfortunately, the prototype seems to have disappeared, so we'll have to settle for the 'what if'.

What's wrong with Bugatti blue? Actually, the 'alligator' finish was an option, and I've only heard of two which survive; the rest are painted as this one.

Wild looking machine, but the square section license plate/tail light holder seems out of character with the streamlined moderne design ethos. Is the license plate holder original or a modern add on concession to practicality? This must be the motorcycle that Raymond Loewy would have designed in his youth!

I do like the Majestic, but still prefer the NerACar's looks and inventive engineering. The Majestic is nice, but too 'sausage' shaped for my taste.
A 4cylinder motor could have been a viable option, but likely only in America. European 4cylinders weren't common in the 1920s.
PS, if you want one, there is a NerACar project with a FN 4 cylinder motor in place for sale. It is a modern build, and needs work. Contact me for details.

'Bugatti' blue is actually traditional French racing blue.
Many nations used to have national colours in the pre-
sponsorship-infested era. Example: French blue, British
racing green (any green would do, but olive green was
preferred), German silver, Belgian yellow, American
white with blue stripes (as seen at Le Mans on the great
Cunninghams), Italian red, Dutch orange, Japanese white
with red . . . many others were used traditionally. Lotus
was the first to break the tradition, with the John Player F1
cars, and the slide downhill started from there.
"At least today's Ducati desmosedicis and Ferrari's F1
cars retain a predominantly national colour, instead
of being mobile billboards"

I am also a great fan of unusual motorbikes.
If you should ever think of selling the "Majestic" please give me a call.

Not my bike! I wish it were, but I'd probably do something horrible like install a 4-cylinder Cleveland engine...
Majestics are very rarely available, although with some effort, any motorcycle can be purchased...
- June 16, 2009
Hi Paul,
If it's literature in English, yes, the Majestic was indeed a new motorcycle, but not a New Motorcycle... In French it would have been "une nouvelle motocyclette, la Majestic"!!!!!!!
Even in France, the earlier NM effort is bloody rare, I only knew of one when I lived there, as for period photos, about the same amount, one, and it was Roy in the saddle!!!
- October 11, 2009
Hi Patrick,
It took a bit, but the July 10, 1929 issue of Motor Cycling is the article I quoted - it must have been the prototype machine which used a Cleveland 4-cylinder (the original has disappeared apparently, and someone in France is making a replica - I'm trying to find an appropriate motor for him). Interestingly, the bike isn't called a 'Majestic' at all, but a 'New-Motorcycle', so perhaps he built his prototype before the dissolution of N-M? Just to be clear, this is an all- enclosed hub-center steered bike, identical to the later Majestic, which as far as I know was never built with a 4-cyl again - ? You can see my confusion; I usually try to be accurate with my source material, or claims by the owner. As with the MGC; the owner claimed it was originally a racer, but that doesn't make it an N3BR, nor did he claim it to be, and I never called it such. Was it raced originally? Perhaps so, I can't tell from this distance and with the source material at hand (extensive, but not complete).
As a coincidence, the July 17, 1929 issue of MC has the debut of the MGC! Busy times, interesting bikes from the French...they were so amazingly innovative from the first days to the Depression, when the bikes became beautifully Deco, but not so interesting.
I'm sure I'll hear more about all this!
all the best, Paul

Actually , it was a 4 cylinder square block , with very low angle less than 14 degree , the Guy was a true visionary as his design was reborn 50 years later in the Lancia in Italy..... WW2 did most of the damage to the French automobile Aviation and motorcycles as they made some Hell of not only good looking but also performing machine , the German did not invent everything thy adapted lot from other Countries.

A few years back, the Café Red Onion (3910 Kirby, 713-807-1122) featured a true champion of a margarita called the El Borracho ("the drunk"). It came on the rocks in an oversize schooner-type glass called a bola. It had three different kinds of tequila. It had a funny/cool name that seemed more appropriate for a masked Lucha Libre wrestler. It would melt your face. Sadly, it's no longer on the menu, and nobody at Red Onion last Thursday could remember how it was made. R.I.P. El Borracho. So long, you son of a bitch. Enter the new kid at Red Onion...El Don. It comes in the same large glass and, with help from some of the finest tequila available (your choice of Don Julio or Don Eduardo, hence the name), it will fly in reverse cross-body from the top shelf and pin an unsuspecting customer to the mat right quick. El Don isn't just a jobber margarita in a fancy agave costume; it's got class and is definitely a contender. I ordered the Julio variety and sat back to ponder the short but glorious career of my close personal friend, El Borracho, and marvel at the possibilities of this overwrought margarita/wrestling analogy.
2 ounces Don Julio or Don Eduardo tequila
1 ounce Grand Marnier liqueur
Caf� Red Onion
2 ounces sweet & sour mix
You know this...mix ingredients in a shaker with ice; serve on ice in a large margarita glass; salt the rim; garnish with lime wedge; pile-drive busboy.

Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics features three key ingredients—glutamine' deglycyrrhizinized licorice (DGL)' and aloe vera — that are included for their comprehensive support of the integrity and healthy functioning of the gastrointestinal lining.
Glutagenics was formulated to support a healthy intestinal lining' which is crucial for a healthy digestive system' immune function and overall health. It supplies large quantities of the amino acid glutamine' which serves as a source of fuel and a precursor for growth to the quickly dividing cells of the intestinal lining. This powdered supplement also provides a highly concentrated licorice extract' which was processed to remove glycyrrhizin (a component that is known to cause adverse reactions in some people).
Since aloe vera has been known to produce a laxative effect' Metagenics removed its bitter (laxative promoting) principles. Also' being a powder' Glutagenics is easy to use and allows for flexible dosing. Metagenics only includes natural flavors to ensure the best possible flavor out of its Glutagenics Powder.
Why Glutamine?
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. It is among most of the amino acids that work together to build protein. Under normal circumstances' the body can produce all the glutamine it needs' but under extreme periods of physical or emotional stress' your body may need more glutamine than it can make naturally. Glutamine is mostly stored in muscles' and it is also stored in the lungs. Incidentally' that is also where glutamine is made by the body.
Glutamine is essential for removing excess ammonia from the body (ammonia is a common waste product). Glutamine also helps support the immune system and is believed to play an important role in digestion and brain function.
If you have a specific medical condition that can lower glutamine levels' such as surgery' prolonged emotional stress' infections or injuries' your body may not be producing all of the glutamine it needs.
Why Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice?
Licorice has been used for centuries as a medicinal remedy to treat a variety of illnesses and promote liver health. It is believed to act as a demulcent (soothing agent) and expectorant (mucous expeller). Although it is largely beneficial' licorice that includes glycyrrhiza can have serious side effects. This is why Metagenics has removed the glycyrrhiza from the licorice in its Glutagenics Powde; this type of licorice doesn't seem to have the same side effects.
Why Aloe Vera?
When we eat' the stomach absorbs the nutrients from food and disposes of everything else. Our digestive systems break down the food for easy absorption with the help of beneficial bacteria in the stomach. At times' toxins are released along with the nutrients and they are allowed to enter the blood stream. The body has a very complex and effective mechanism for handling such toxins' but in the meantime' they can cause discomfort. This is where aloe vera steps in to help detoxify the blood. Because it is also soothing and healing' it may relax the muscles of the digestive tract while having a cleansing effect.
Metagenics creates innovative supplements that help people overcome the symptoms of chronic diseases and maintain their health. Quality and research is paramount' and has been since the company was founded in 1983. All active ingredients in Metagenics products have been demonstrated effective by third-party scientists. Its formulas have been imitated but never duplicated.

Works for intestinal permeability
My 10-year-old sons naturopath prescribed Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics for his intestinal permeability. He took it for three months as directed and now his intestine is fine. Lab tests confirmed both conditions. Excellent product!
It works!

So far so good.
I've been taking Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics for about a month and can definitely see an improvement in my gastritis symptoms. I warm up about 8 oz of water in the microwave for 2 minutes and put a teaspoon of Glutagenics in it, like a cup of tea. This is the best way for me to drink it. (It's important not to put it in boiling water though as that could affect effectiveness.) Very happy to have found something that seems to be working!
Seems to be healing my stomach, or at least easing my gastritis symptoms, which is really nice.
A little expensive.

Great Taste-Works Quickly.
I have low blood sugar problems & in only a minute or two of putting a teaspoon of the Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics in water & drinking in it, I feel my blood sugar go right back to normal. This powder has also helped me get rid of the dizziness associated with low blood sugar as well.
The powder dissolves quickly & tastes good.
The item is a bit on the expensive side.

Great product!
Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics is wonderful and definitely worth the price. I was at the point where my stomach was unable to comfortably digest anything and once I started taking this product a few times a day I saw a huge difference in a matter of weeks. Great product for someone figuring out food allergies and digestive upset.
It works!
Could be more palatable.

Pain Goes Down the Toilet!
Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics is portable. Great for traveling. Add to water and the licorice soothes the gastrointestinal lining and chases the pain causing particles out with a natural 6 hour laxative effect!
Stir the powder in water and drink immediately. No aftertaste.

Where I stayed
The Adventure Hostel
The group leaves the Argentina Hotel at about 8am. We are greeted by a massive luxury coach. I look on impressed. Then our guide walks behind the coach to a less luxurious looking Dragoman over-lander vehicle.
It is however quite homely when I get inside. For the next 113 days this is my home away from home, a big orange truck. I think I may be a little mad.
As you head out of Rio the energy of the city leaves a trail behind it. As we spiral up into the Brazilian hills it eventually disappears.
It�s quite rural up here with favelas springing up everywhere as though engraved into the hills. The sun is on my bones and the wind is in my hair. I feel ridiculously relaxed. We creep through densely forested hills to reach clearings which reveal little pockets of heaven.
Vast lakes rest between the hills. Azure crystalline waters are trimmed by golden shores. The roadsides are dotted with locals walking barefoot, donkey drawn carriages and the odd got tied to a tree we are definetely out of Rio.

Little Cameron Briggs (Chapter 2)
Book by: pencil2paper1995
Status: Finished
Genre: Horror
Chapter4 (v.1)
Miss Matthews stood at the front of the classroom, standing Henry in front of her, arms on his shoulders.
"Boys and Girls, this is Henry Persons." The class stared blankly at Henry and, unlike most new kids, Henry stared back.
"So, Henry, where'd you use to live?" Miss Matthews asked.
"I used to live in Virginia." Henry said clearly unlike most new kids.
Miss Matthews pointed to the seat next to Cameron.
"You may sit there, Henry. Just make yourself at home."
"Thank you."
Henry sat down next to Cameron, ignoring everyones stares and whispers. He instantally grabbed his backpack and fished iut a pack of gum, offering Cameron a peice.
"Thanks." Cameron tooke the gum and slammed his workbook on top of his desk.
"Mr. Briggs, can you please show Henry around during recess?"
"Yes, M'am." Cameron said, a tad bit unhappy since the fifth graders always played kickball on Tuesdays.
The class was silent, all that was heard was the furious scribbling of pencils against desk tops. Cameron worked on a problem, nibbling he end of his eraser thoughtfully. What was 3/8 + 5/10? This stuff was written in a differnt language! Poor Henry. Cameron thought it was mean of Miss Matthews to give Henry a test on his first day.
"Okay, class, put down your pencils!" Miss Matthews announced. Several groans were heard followed by many pencils slamming down on desktops.
"Switch papers with the person next to you." Miss Matthews instructed as Cameron and Hanry swapped papers.
Cameron glanced at Henry's paper. Man this kid was SMART!
After checking every question, the two switched papers again. Cameron had gotten a C-. Oh joy. Henry had gotten an A+. Maybe he learned it at his other school. But some kids were just smart. Like he wished he was.
The bell rang, signaling the kids to rise from their chairs and go to recess.
"C'mon buddy! I've got somethin' special to show ya after you show me around." Henry said, holding out his arm.
Before Cameron could object, Henry pulled him along coldly.
What was he going to show him?

Tan time trial puts all comers to the test
Page Tools
Lunchtime joggers pound their way along the Tan yesterday. Craig Mottram holds the official Tan speed record with a time of 10:12.

Setting a personal best around the Tan can be a challenge.
First, there's the running. If you start, as most do, from the horse trough near the end of Swan Street Bridge, you must build into a fast rhythm along the bottom of the Tan - not too fast, however, or you will be chewing asphalt well before the top of the 500-plus metres up the Anderson Street hill.
Then you must quickly regain momentum and retain it through the undulations along Birdwood Avenue before the long, gradual and fast downhill finish from Government House Drive to Alexandra Avenue and back to the horse trough.
That's 3.83 kilometres of demanding running. And then there are the other obstacles. The personal best hopes can evaporate as you wend your way through other runners, joggers, power-walkers and prams sharing your lap, or veer round one too many dogs on a lead.
Or your arrival at the bottom of Anderson Street may coincide with a busload of tourists disembarking to visit the Botanic Gardens, or you may run headlong into a football team doing pre-season training.
Most Tan runners are happy just to go round, but from today to Sunday they can do more that that.
Go The Tan bills itself as Melbourne's official time trial of the venerable circuit. For an entry fee, runners get a timing chip and can run as many timed laps of the Tan as their legs, lungs and mind can stand.
The Tan, originally a horse track for the well-to-do, is now the most democratic of Melbourne's many shrines to exercise.
The swift share the space with the slow.
Its fame has spread worldwide. Hicham El Guerrouj, Steve Ovett, Cathy Freeman and Sonia O'Sullivan have all rubbed shoulders with mortals on the Tan.
When Noah Ngeny won a silver medal behind Moroccan runner El Guerrouj at the 1999 world championships, the prestigious French sports daily L'Equipe noted that the young Kenyan held just two records: the world junior record for the mile and the fastest time for a lap around Melbourne's "Jardins Botaniques".
Most Tan runners are happy just to go round, but from today to Sunday they can do more that that."
Before the late-1970s arrival of the plastic training watch, there was no easy and accurate way to time yourself. Coaches timed track sessions, not Tan laps.
Robert de Castella did a lap in close to 11 minutes as a junior in the 1970s, but the first men's record most runners knew about was set by Mike Hillardt, at 10 minutes, 47 seconds in the early 1980s.
Steve Moneghetti, of all people, revived interest in the quickest lap when he ran 10:41 in 2003, before Craig Mottram sizzled to 10:12 a few months later.
Elite women began running the Tan regularly as the sport belatedly adopted distance races for women in the 1970s.
The consensus is that Kate Richardson (nee Anderson), the 1998 Commonwealth 5000 metres champion and a 1997 world championships finalist, has the fastest time, with 11:55.
Footballer times are problematic. David Spriggs ran 12:40 while with Geelong.
Hawthorn's Tim Clarke, a world cross-country junior representative before he concentrated solely on football, has run close to 12 minutes while training with sister Georgie and reckons he could run a fair bit quicker.
"Go The Tan", Friday 1pm-8pm, Saturday 7am-6pm, Sunday 7am-4pm. Starting point Toms Block, in line with the King George V monument. All proceeds go towards Friedreich Ataxia Research. Adults: $25. Students/health card holders: $23. Children under 15: $13. Family: $62.

NEW YORK, Thursday—Harold Stassen's statement on liberalism, when he announced his candidacy for the Republican Presidential nomination, might have been written by one of the numerous young Democratic liberals. And taken by itself, it would lead one to believe that, as far as liberals in either party are concerned, their philosophy is much the same.
I am sure that, whether you are a Republican or a Democrat, if you are a liberal you will agree with these words which I saw quoted from Mr. Stassen: "I would say that a true liberalism is a philosophy of life which seeks the maximum political, social, economic and religious freedom for the individual man and woman consistent with the enjoyment of the same degree of freedom by his or her fellow men."
Subscribing to that won't label you as belonging specifically to either of the major parties. It is like saying you want to do what is right. Certainly we all do. But just what is right and how do we do it?
* * *
I like Mr. Stassen's willingness to come out in the open and say that he is a Presidential candidate, and that he intends to stay in Washington to work with Senate and House Republicans on the legislative program. The question is, how many will work with him?
He is appealing to the people, but you may be fairly popular with the people and still not be able to induce party leaders to nominate you. Or if these leaders are swept off their feet, as they were by Wendell Willkie, they can still give you only half-hearted support—and it requires organization to get out the vote. People are lazy when it comes to voting.
Someone told me not long ago that in Russia the people are obliged to vote. It is not left to anyone's convenience. There are other countries too where, if you do not use your voting franchise, you pay a fine. We have never done that sort of thing here. On the contrary, in some states we still pay for the privilege of voting.
Probably because the competing political parties think it may be to their advantage to keep some of the voters at home now and then—by one method or another—they have never made voting obligatory. Since our reactions are often negative rather than positive, staying at home is a rather frequent practice, and good people with civic consciences bewail the fact that we so often have such a low percentage of voters. It would seem that we do not value our franchise as highly as we should, and that is why efficient political machines are valuable!
* * *
One admires Mr. Stassen's courage and yet wonders how much it will accomplish. He stated some of his own personal views in clear and forthright fashion, and I am sure that, before long, we are going to hear some liberal young Democrats say certain things that will not be so very different. They may not condemn Robert Nathan's recent economic report in quite such unqualified style as did Mr. Stassen, but they might go along on many of the other opinions expressed by Mr. Stassen.
Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg's conservative statement that the Republican task "is exclusively one of now justifying the November victory" is the statement of the more mature, elder statesman. He can proceed to do anything and say anything that he decides is wise at any given time on any given program. He is committed to nothing except justification of the Republican victory—and that, heaven knows, can be done in many ways!

text: Like many of you, I have been lounging about watching the Combine. I am interested in another opinion(s). This WR class is quite a bit better that I expected...or am I off base. A couple of the non-top-names did well (Iglesias, Robiskie, etc...), and there do seem to be a number of guys that may be studs at the next level. What do you think? BTW, I also really liked the Centers yesterday as well. Tackles seem good too, but the Guards looked rough.

Talking Shop
What's fun to play with, interactive, educational and not made of junky plastic? The answer is simple: just about anything at Shop, Skip and a Jump, the tiny little nook of a gift shop tucked into the entryway at the Children's Museum of Denver. It's useful information this time of year: While your neighbors roam the big-box toy stores, punching one another out over the last of this season's must-have toys, you can easily bring the family for a swing through the museum and shop this uncrowded jewel in peace.
And so what if there's nary a Barbie Rapunzel doll to be seen? How about a classic bendable Gumby instead, or a plush raccoon's head disguising a pair of cool binoculars? This shop even has those very Whoopee Cushions once sold in the back pages of comic books. For proper little girls, there are Monarch butterfly and ladybug wings to wear, and for little tykes just figuring out how to put it all together, there are counting and vehicle-noise sound blocks that answer aurally when put together in the correct configuration. Bigger kids fresh from Treasure Planet will no doubt enjoy the Treasure Island Dig & Play set, replete with ducats and doubloons and a sand pit under which to bury them.
But it's the wooden toys that really rule here, whether they're unadorned whistles or block sets, interactive puzzles or tiny workbenches outfitted with tools. There's a clever wooden sandwich kit featuring hamburger buns, pickles, tomatoes and all the fixings, with Velcro fasteners to hold your creation together, as well as elaborate dollhouses and even a lumber-based outer-space adventure system.
There, now. Wasn't that easy? Shop, Skip and a Jump is inside the Children's Museum of Denver, 2121 Children's Museum Drive; for information, call 303-433-7444 or log on to www.mychildsmuseum.org.

Five Smart Moves for Liberal Arts Grads
I met my first "helicopter parent" in September, 1995. This hovering father called demanding specialized career services for his son. The father was upset that some fellow students had convinced his son to study philosophy instead of computer science. Implicit in the very way he pronounced the word "philosophy" was what was really on his mind: "What on earth can you do with a liberal arts degree?"
When it comes to liberal arts and careers, there's a black hole of ignorance that is often filled with myths and assumptions. One of the biggest assumptions is that you can't possibly find employment unless you supplement your liberal arts degree in religion or art history or English with a more practical second major like economics. But look around. How many cultural anthropology grads do you see driving cabs? And how many support groups exist for unemployed history majors? Not many of those either.
Having confidence that everything will turn out well in the end is, of course, not the same as having a crystal ball at graduation. I had my own career reality check when I immigrated to the U.S. 30 years ago. The temporary agency I approached took one look at my newly minted degree in Russian and Persian and advised that they might be able to find me a minimum-wage job—if I learned to type. Today's grads won't be asked about typing, but they'll likely receive a similar message.
Plotting a Course
Luckily, as experience proves, where you start off bears little relation to where you can end up. The question—for helicopter parents and liberal arts grads alike—is: How do you get from studying a subject you enjoy intellectually to work that you love?
Recently, I co-authored a book, Smart Moves for Liberal Arts Grads: Finding a Path to Your Perfect Career, that tracks the real career paths of 23 liberal arts graduates from 19 different schools. Their examples serve as powerful inspiration to anyone who wants to discover a path to career success.
Through the stories of the graduates we interviewed, we discovered five "smartest moves" that were key to everyone's success:
• 1: Figure out who you are and where you want to go
• 2: Get experience
• 3: Build social and networking relationships
• 4: Identify and fill your competence gap
• 5: Find your "hook"
Here's a look at how some of the people we interviewed made their smartest moves:
Figure out who you are and where you want to go
Granted, that's easier said than done. From our Smart Moves group, only Ally identified her passion at an early age. She chose a particularly difficult career—actress and director. But the strength of her passion helped her overcome the bumps in her path to success.
You can certainly find direction from assessment instruments such as the Strong Interest Inventory or the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. But if you don't identify an ideal career position through your assessments—and you probably won't—don't despair. You're more likely to find the work you love by starting with Smartest Move No. 2.
Get experience
Liberal arts grads can follow just about any career they want. Unfortunately, the multitude of options can be overwhelming. The solution? Trial runs. It can save time later on if you experience different types of work while you're still in college. Cara laid the groundwork for her career in marketing by working at the school radio station. Sharon discovered her passion for fashion through internships.
Others try on careers by proxy—conducting informational interviews with alumni, parents, friends, or anyone else who will share both smart and dumb moves. Luckily there's no time limitation on getting experience. If you didn't explore different career options in college, build time into your schedule to do so now.
Build social and networking relationships
Conventional wisdom says that connections are the best way to find work.
But what happens when the career footsteps of family members or close friends lead you in an undesirable direction and you've exhausted your external fan base? Don't balk at talking with people outside your immediate social circle.
Sure, you're most likely to find good connections among colleagues in your professional association. But you can often find help in the most unlikely places. Ray ultimately found his way to a position as Indiana Jones' stunt double through his hair stylist. The stylist didn't personally know who was running auditions. But he was, in Malcolm Gladwell's vernacular, a "connector."
Identify your competence gaps
One of the best ways to get ahead in your career is to look not just one step ahead, but several. Find your ideal job and work backward. Assess what required skills, abilities, and aptitudes you already have, and identify the areas in which you need to develop.
After seeing a teenage friend die of leukemia, Brad knew he wanted to alleviate unnecessary suffering on a worldwide scale—a lofty goal, indeed. With a degree in biology, Brad had a good academic background, but he needed practical experience in a number of areas. Since graduation, he has systematically identified and eliminated his competence gaps by working in the pharmaceutical and financial industries and volunteering in a foundation that awards funds for health-related projects.
Find your hook
Once you've found your ideal position, how do you stand out from the crowd? Sometimes simple things will make the difference, like sending handwritten thank-you letters immediately after an interview, or researching your interviewer's background on the Web. Other times, your strategy needs to be a little more creative. Chris knew his chances of being selected for a highly competitive Foreign Service officer position were small unless he could find a hook. Rejected the first time around, Chris increased his chances when reapplying by learning Arabic through a Peace Corps assignment to Morocco.
All graduates, no matter what their educational background, can benefit from studying the career success of others. If you're a liberal arts grad, take some time to find out how people whose careers have meaning for you managed to get where they are. The more you know about the career paths of those you admire, the better able you will be to find your own direction.

made some more progress today
working out from the center
welded the gussets before I couldn't get to them any more and added a brace just so the ears would somewhat hold their shape during fitup
boxing it in
getting there
mocking up the outsides
with metal instead of cardboard
drivers side done
as I was cutting pieces for the drivers side I cut some for the passenger side also, so the second side went very quickly. The passenger side is about 1/4" lower than the drivers side, so tomarrow I'll tweak that and cut the ends off and make caps for them.
This has been a fun build, when I'm finished with the front I plan to make a rear also. To finish the front I have to cut off ends and make caps, cut in some fog lights, add a "baja" bar, mount some KC's and add recovery points. Still debating on a coating for it, I am torn between powder coat and spray on bedliner, I am leaning toward the bedliner only because I want to do my nerf bars also and I think the bedliner would be more durable....but who knows?

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I was using a crosswalk, after pushing the button for the walk signal to say it was safe. After about 6 feet across this big SUV pulled out and hit me so hard, that I landed on the ground a few feet from him.
A policeman arrived on scene and took a report from the driver and me and 2 witnesses. I was in so much pain and disoriented so an ambulance took me to the hospital. I was X rayed and they found no broken bones. I was released the same day. For the next few days my left arm was in a lot pain and my whole body was sore.
In a week I am having nerve test done to see why my arm hurts so bad. It has been 2 weeks.
I received a police report and found out the guy never reported it to his insurance company. They did contact him though and a representative came out to talk to me.
I am feeling better except for my arm. It has been a very long 2 weeks, and I haven't been able to do much of anything.
If I find out that I have no serious injuries do I still need a lawyer?
I am very sorry to hear about your incident and glad you are feeling better. It is always very important not give a recorded statement to the other parties insurance company. They are trying to lock you into a statement before you have the advice of an attorney. Personal injury attorneys are typically paid on a contingency basis, therefore, it doesn't cost you anything unless they make a recovery on your behalf. Because you were taken by ambulance to the hospital and have followed up with other physicians, you may have outstanding medical bills. Additionally, you do have some residual symptoms with your arm and may have nerve damage. For these reasons, you may want to protect your intersts and retain a personal injury attorney in your area on a contingency basis that will not charge you for fees or costs unless they recover.Ask a similar question
You have what we call in personal injury, a great case. Do not talk to the insurance company, and call me immediately for a free consultation at 800-816-1529. Use extension 1.
Go to my website at www.thepersonalinjury.com if you like to read about pedestrian accidents.
You say that you do now have serious injuries and that there are no broken bones. That may be true, but call me to discuss what you may be entitled to here.
Remember only a fool has himself for a client. You do not want to handle this case on your own.
NormAsk a similar question
You should definitely contact an attorney in your area and see about enforcing your rights to damages - you were hurt by the SUV and they should pay you some money for your pain and suffering, etc. Don't use a huge personal injury lawyer w/ TV ads everywhere - use a reputable lawyer who has been given to you by a trusted friend.

Natural convection from a plane vertical porous surface in non-isothermal surroundings
Saha, Suvash C., Akhter, C., & Hossain, M. A. (2004) Natural convection from a plane vertical porous surface in non-isothermal surroundings. Nonlinear Analysis, 9(2), pp. 151-170.
Published Version
(PDF 456kB)
Administrators only | Request a copy from author
In this paper, laminar natural convection flow from a permeable and isothermal vertical surface placed in non-isothermal surroundings is considered. Introducing appropriate transformations into the boundary layer equations governing the flow derives non-similar boundary layer equations. Results of both the analytical and numerical solutions are then presented in the form of skin-friction and Nusselt number. Numerical solutions of the transformed non-similar boundary layer equations are obtained by three distinct solution methods, (i) the perturbation solutions for small � (ii) the asymptotic solution for large � (iii) the implicit finite difference method for all � where � is the transpiration parameter. Perturbation solutions for small and large values of � are compared with the finite difference solutions for different values of pertinent parameters, namely, the Prandtl number Pr, and the ambient temperature gradient n.

Need Help - DCS DME EGS Issues
I have been chasing issues/check engine lights on my car since I bought it at the end of December. Basically I bought a car with an idle issue, prior owner said he had his mechanic look at it and it was either the ICV, MAF, Coils, or Cam Sensor. Told me he didn't want to put money into it.
Fast forward, Idle issue ended up being a cracked valve on cylinder 2 (yes prior owner knew this but also knew enough to misdirect, expletives here for him). Replace head with a VAC Motorsports head, replaced ICV, MAF, Plugs, and the parts list could go on. At this point I have invested an additional 3+k into the car just to get it running correctly and through inspection, but it consistently throws SES. I have methodically been tackling the issues and now the remaining problems are just baffling.
My last DIS scan showed the following:
DCS5.7 - 76 DME/DDE does not fulfill torque request - DCS actively switched - no ABS control - Stop...
EGS - (145) 91 Can Torque reduction - General fault- -- - Sporadic fault - -- - Currently not present...
DME - (211) D# Idle-speed control valve, mechanical fault - Idle-speed control valve jammed open (P1500 ...
The DSC, ABS, Brake, EML lights come on after about 15 minutes of driving but reset when I turn the car off. Once the car is warm, they come on almost immediately. The check engine for the DME is sporadic and the ICV is a brand new OE part.
I am leaning towards an issue with the wiring and connectors but this is just a guess at this point. If complete parts list of what I have replaced would help let me know, I just didn't want to put it all if it wasn't needed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I believe a lot of people have been trying to fix this issue including me , noting yet , I spoke to a guy that works at peak BMW and he said worst gets to worst it could be the DME module , which they want $1500-2000... I would check the intake system with all the vacuum lines first
here are only 3 things that could go wrong related to this problem: EML+ASC (traction control) lights are throttle body related issues.
1. Throttle flaps get stuck due to sticky residue which can be cleaned out.
2. Throttle position sensors are bad which is imbedded into the throttle body (mechanical cable set up).
3. Wire harness is not plugged into throttle body correctly or the wire harness itself is faulty.
If any of these issues occur it will send a signal to the computer which will put the car into limp mode.
Sent from my iPhone
Thanks for the replies! I was leaning towards the TB as well. When I first bought the car I literally replaced every vacuum line and intake boots to try and eliminate that possibility when I was fixing the original idle issue. I noticed a little while ago that the cars RPM would fluctuate while coasting. This improved once I put the new ICV but it still happens although very small movement on the tach. The TB was pretty much spotless when I took it off for the head swap, so I am certain the previous owner cleaned it, but I am curious if it is just bad and not throwing a code. I am going to double check the wires tomorrow to see if there are any cracks or splits.
I just replaced the steering angle sensor and had it coded because that is what the dealership originally told me the issue was and once I got DIS running it confirmed.
Does INPA or DIS have any tests for the TB to see if it is the issue?
Thanks again for your help!
Issues like this always remind me of something electrical or related to electronics. Don't get a new ecu, that's just plain retarded. With my experience and background in electronics, computer software, programming, and anything electrical, you can sometimes have a partially functioning piece of electronics but my rule of thumb is it either works, or it doesn't. This isn't really a good rule to go by but if it pertains to the ECU, I think it does. Perhaps you may try dabbling in the art of ecu upgrading and see if that helps that and updating your tranny software. The sporadic fault seems interesting. I've also had the error 91 happen to me before too as well. It ended up being a voltage power issue, the fluctation and unstable volts due to perhaps (havent seen the error anymore but still having seldom voltage issues which I blame power steering fluid leaking on to my alternator) my alternator issue. I don't think its failing because I noticed residue from power steering atf fluid on it, and whenever I clean it, it works fine. all in a nutshell, power or voltage wild swings can easily be a cause of a lot of errors, throwing error codes and making you think its one thing when its not.
I agree I don't think the DME is bad either. I flashed the DME last Thursday but it didn't resolve the issue. Trans software is up to date as well. I was thinking about replacing the wire harness as a last resort but am holding off for now. I just went and cleaned all of the connectors and inspected the wiring. I didn't see any cracks or splits. Put it all back together and went for a short 15 minute ride. So far no lights but I am going to drive it for a while now to see if it comes back.

Ok, longer ride and now have SES, EML, traction, ABD, and brake. Is there a way to test the throttle body?

Took the car out for around a 50 mile drive. EML, Traction, Brake and ABS came on about 15 minutes into the ride. Stopped for a few minutes at a store, started car, all lights were out. About a minute after starting, all lights came back with the SES light on now. Drove for a while, no change. Every time I turned the car off, lights (excluding SES) go out, and come back after about a minute of driving.
I am wondering if all of this could be caused by a bad battery? I have heard low voltage can cause all sorts of issues. I am going to break out the voltmeter tomorrow and test it.
From what I keep seeing, it appears there is definitely some component in the CAN system causing the issue if the battery doesn't end up being the cause. I am looking for a way to test the entire system to try and pinpoint it.
One strange thing, once it happens, if I am driving and need power, the trans does not kick down, it just hangs the gear unless I pump the gas a couple times, then it finally kicks down.
Thanks again for everyone's help,
Here is the new scan from when I got home
Battery is fine, 12.4v after sitting for a day and 13.5 with all accessories running.
I am going to check the connectors at the DME, the gas pedal itself, and the EGSto see if there are any issues there. I wish there was a place I could trust to bring it to but I know if I went to the dealer, they would just want to replace all my computers, which may not solve the issue.
Also, check your fuses that corresponds to any of those errors. One last thing to check, is your alignment off?
I'll check the fuses tomorrow that would be great if that was the issue.
I just replaced my steering angle sensor but my suspension is shot so that could be an issue. I am replacing that soon and hope it helps eliminate some possibilities.

Did you remember to run the steering wheel sensor test in Inpa when you switched it out? It should be under special tests without having to select e46 chassis or its under one of tabs under e46
I didn't see a test under Special for the Steering Angle Sensor, but saw under Chassis it has the module, but didnt see any tests for it. Am I looking in the right area? Fuses were all OK.
Thanks again for you help with this, I cannot wait to finally have a car without a light on!
ah, so you haven't. that explains why your lights are on, and who knows, it may be the cause of all your issues, although tranny error code not really related. I went through my version of inpa, 5.00 and I didn't see the test under special test either. I did see under chassis where it does show steering angle sensor, but I could've swore that it was under special test. Let me check an older version of inpa.
I also didn't see it with inpa version 5.00 but under version 3.01 (version text file says 4.4.7 package 1.0). it was under special tests. I would try reinstalling old inpa or, go through the inpa/bin file in both (c:\inpa\bin and c:\ecc-apps\inpa\bin) locations if they were installed in said directories and try executing both the inpa.exe and the inpaload.exe i've had different versions popup for each other.
I do see that your ICV has a fault. Did you replace that with a brand new one too?
At least attempt to reset steering angle
Do you think a bad suspension could cause the issue with the DCS? When I say bad, I mean basically just springs supporting the car, one of which is broke. I am either buying a new set up, or possible a decent low mileage used one this weekend so that may help the diagnosis.
Maybe but either way I would still get them replaced but try the free solution. The option is available. Like I said install the oldes inpa version you have
