After two kids I wanted to look and feel better about myself.
As far as the procedure it was just as Dr. Maercks said, almost pain free since no incision where made to my breast. I had minor discomfort under my arm pits as expected and recovery was fast. I was able to go back to work in three days. The best part about all this is that his new procedure (subfascial breast augmentation) has given me the look that I wanted. My breast look natural with a tear drop shape to them, my cleavage is also natural looking and following his advice I opted to go with silicone for a better look and feel.

Presenting the first in a series of probing debates on the least controversial issues of our time. For this installment of Point/Otherpoint, Jason Toon and Scott Lydon ponder the future of the men's undershirt.
Put It On by Jason Toon
A gentlemen always remains discreet on certain matters. The precise contours of his nipples. The density of his chest hair. The moisture pooling under his arms and down his back. The racist chest tattoos he received in prison. (Hey, you don't know what it's like in there. You have to get with your own kind to survive.)
For this, he relies on the humble undershirt. Like the best personal valet, it's there when he needs it and invisible when he doesn't. Hidden safely behind the cotton curtain, his nauseating intimacies cannot damage his social standing, offend his peers, or chase off the chicks. Whatever goes on under there, it'll be their little secret. No undershirt ever wrote a tell-all memoir or sold its master's secrets to the tabloid press. Its heart is true; it's a pal and a confidant.
In the spirit of discretion, I'll pass lightly over the nipple-chafing issue, saying only this: it sucks to have chafed nipples. A gentleman should not have to choose between papillar comfort and his cherished burlap guayabera.
When it comes to displays of conspicuous consumption, an undershirt is perhaps the least vulgar way to say "We both know I'm better than you." Haven't I the right to enjoy the fruits of my spectacular natural talent and my unerring instinct for excellence? Anyone who doesn't approve is invited to get his own undershirts and watch the positive effect it will have on his bearing and manner. As it happens, I know a wonderful source of undershirts that I'd be glad to share. It's called Target.
Now, this apologia should not be misconstrued as an endorsement of wearing an undershirt as an overshirt anywhere outside a basketball court. But we, as a society, also frown on those who wear their underpants on the outside without prohibiting the garment itself...for now. If the baying anti-undergarment mob has its way, who knows?
Take It Off by Scott Lydon
Sure, it comes in handy when you need to swagger around with a beer can, yelling to your neighbors about the Napoleonic code and why Meat Loaf is better than 2Pac, but on the whole, the undershirt is a relic we no longer need as a species.
First of all, the undershirt was invented around the time of the Spanish-American war. Remember the Maine? No? Well, then, why keep the undershirt around? Even the archaic Phone Excise Tax has been done away with. As newspapers are already learning the 21st Century is a very, very, very different place. With that in mind, why keep this relic of yellow journalism pressed to our chests, day in and day out, for even a second longer? Let us take the first forward steps to red and gold unitards and shiny shiny rocketpacks! Set our collective chest hair free!
Secondly, what does the undershirt mean? What does it truly say to the world? Obviously, it says to the world "Hey, I'm the kind of person who can afford to wear two shirts!" And, speaking strictly statistically, what sort of person is the most likely to be targeted by criminals? That's right, the person who has the most to lose. The person with the most shirts. Unless you're Superman or Robin, a second shirt is a good way to be marked as a target. What good will that second shirt be when you no longer have a television?
Don't keep giving in to the crypto-fascist undershirt industry. Take control of your wardrobe, and wear shirts the way they were intended. Against the skin. Freedom's just another word for nothing left to take off.

City of Bend plans 'Quest at the Fest'
BEND, Ore. - Join the city of Bend from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 12, during the Bank of the Cascades Bend Summer Festival to see city equipment, experience interactive displays and learn more about your City.
Geared towards families and fun, the city's displays will include Police K9 dogs, fire engines, snow plows and more.
The City Quest at the Fest will be located along Irvine and Oregon avenues, between Bond and Harriman. Games and prizes will be available for kids. Visitors can learn more about where city taxes and fees go, how water gets to your tap and where it goes after it's down the drain.
The City of Bend provides services we all use every day, from high-quality drinking water in our homes to emergency services when we need them most. This is a great opportunity to meet your City Councilors, talk to the people who provide your services, and try to soak community leaders in the dunk tank.

I live not far from where this happened. My understanding is the local LEOs are not entirely happy with this situation. It was DPS who fired from their helo. It truly is a shame that people died here.
I think one of the biggest problems with these chases is that the ones running are increasingly using caltrops against those following. It is almost impossible to find all of the caltrops thrown out during a chase and they pose quite the danger the innocent drivers later on.
It is just a mess all around with desperate smugglers vs increasingly militarized police forces.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.
Thoughts: Justifiable self defense (A.O.J.).
Explain: How does disarming victims reduce the number of victims?
Reason over Force: Why the Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
I understand the feelings of those who say that the illegals brought it on themselves. However there are rules in place for when deadly force can be used. Were the officers lives in danger? Were the lives of innocent people in danger? Did the police follow their own rules about using deadly force? Do we want police to break the rules and if so why even have them.
Would the opinions of those who are in favor of the police actions taken in this case feel the same way if instead of illegals it was a pickup full of American school kids out on a bender after their high school prom? If not then lets change the rules on using deadly force.

The fact illegal aliens, they are not immigrants, got killed may be sad.
However, with the battle against drugs, and the current President making the borders lawless regions I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often.
To call most of the illegal aliens in this country immigrants is insulting. It's insulting to those who followed the laws of this nation and came here legally. Some may want to be residents, but many of the illegal immigrants up here refer to themselves as (name their country of origin) instead of as Americans.
Even the Hmong refugees and their children, call themselves Hmong-Americans or just Americans. They are a wonderful group of people much like the Bohemians that came over here at the turn of the 20th century were/are. My great-grandparents were some of those immigrants.
The Trooper firing to disable the vehicle is no different in my mind from the Coast Guard shooting out engines of drug runners. When you choose to run you take your chances.
Infowars- Proving David Hannum right on a daily basis
IMHO if you run when they try to stop you then use deadly force to stop them,They endanger innocent American lives when they hit the highway,not to mention pursuing officers

The Henry County Lady Cats managed to get in one of their two scheduled games for last week when they hosted Nelson County in a game rescheduled from earlier in the week due to bad weather.
The Lady Cats wasted no time in taking control of the game. They scored 16 runs in the first inning and one in the second and let the defense do the rest of the work as they won in three innings.
The Lady Cats had 11 hits and reached safely on six walks while also benefitting from several errors by the Lady Cards.
The Henry County Wildcats got off to good start in the first week of the season by winning three of their first four games despite playing in less than ideal weather. They beat Frankfort in their opener, dropped their second game to Shelby County and then finished the week with wins over Williamstown and Waggener.
HCHS 10 Frankfort 0
The Wildcats jumped on the Panthers for four runs in the first inning and never looked back as they won in six innings on a day with blowing rain and snow.
Henry County High School student Hayley Hosey competed in her third national archery competition over the weekend and recorded her best result yet. Hosey finished fifth out of 72 competitors in the National Field Archery Association Indoor Championships at Duke Energy Center in Cincinnati.
The Warriors traveled to Louisville for a pair of games last week. On Mar. 13 they played Atherton and lost 19-3. Saturday they played Southern and fell 12-2.
Atherton 19 EHS 3
The Henry County High School track and field team competed at the Harry Greschel Invitational track meet at Christian Academy of Louisville Saturday.
"It was a huge meet with all the biggest and best teams in the Louisville area competing," HCHS Coach Phillip Allen said. "We weren't really concerned with where we finished. We just wanted to compete for the experience and to establish a baseline. Now we go back to work to try and improve our performances.
The Henry County Lady Cats opened the 2017 softball season with a home game Friday night against Bardstown Bethlehem and came away with a 13-12 win in eight innings. The Lady Cats had hot bats despite the chilly weather as they slugged 13 hits.
Claire Young had two hits and five RBIs and Lilly Golden contributed three hits and two RBIs to lead the offense. Sydney Raisor had two hits and four runs scored.
The Eminence Warriors opened the baseball season with a home game against the Thomas Nelson Generals Friday night and came away with a 7-4 loss despite taking an early lead.
Marshall Metten got the Warriors off to a good start in the bottom of the first after pitcher Jared Golden struck out three and gave up one hit in the top of the inning.
Metten, a freshman, smacked a two-run home run to centerfield with one out and fellow freshman Matthew Hamilton on second base. It was Metten's first at-bat in a high school game.
Jon Kasten of HCHS and Tye Lawson of EHS are pretty clever for athletic directors. A certain local sportswriter sent a somewhat desperate email to them Friday that was supposedly from the weather-related illness coordinator of the KHSAA.
The email attempted to make them believe that games for Friday had been cancelled due to the new KHSAA wind chill index, similar to the heat index table used to decide whether fall sports teams can play or not when it is hot as blazes in mid-August.
Mike Dickey has many years of experience managing golf courses throughout Indiana and he is bringing that experience to the Henry County Country Club as their new golf pro.
Dickey was born and raised in Anderson, Ind., and attended Indiana Central College (now Indianapolis University) on a basketball scholarship. He took up golf while in college and grew to have a love for the game.
After graduating, Dickey began a teaching career that lasted just one and a half years before he started his career in golf course management.

Chaos is spreading throughout Iran as sanctions increasingly cripple the economy and reduce the rial currency to a level not seen in decades. Riot police clashed with protesters,with businessmen, and with those involved in currency exchange. Many businesses in the bazar simply closed their doors even though warned by security forces to remain open. Some openly called President Ahmadinejad a traitor who has mismanaged the economy and caused unnecessary conflict with the outside world.
Gholam Ali Haddad Adel, an adviser to the president argued it was not the fault of Iran's government but a "conspiracy" by western powers. "The arrogant powers, in their crude way, think that the nation of Iran is ready to led go of the Islamic revolution through economic pressure" but we will not give in.
The only outcome of continued defiance of the United Nations is economic misery for the people of Iran. They can have the Islamic revolution and they can have economic prosperity, just make rational decisions.

Caldezar is a well trusted member. I will vouch for him as will nearly anyone around here.
I've dealt with him way too many times. His stuff is typically immaculate and it's well priced.
If you buy his stuff you risk getting to know him, which may involve bowling, my son and I, and submarines...
.... it's complicated. :rofl:
Old bumps removed.
And a +2 for rep, I've bought a couple items from Caldezar and all his stuff is kept in excellent condition. Good trader.
Old bumps removed. And many thanks for delivering the card to my house.
Another +1 for this member. Great to deal with and items r always pristine!

Audi Allroad Quattro Questions
Get answers to questions about your Audi Allroad Quattro at RepairPal. Find solutions, diagnose problems and get back on the road.Refine by vehicle
It wont turn on or off
Could my struts be going out? Or alignment?
replaced crankshaft pos. sensor
we stored it for the winter , moved it the replaced the battery now it won't go into gear, its locked in park
saftey mode. what could the problem be. it starts goes into reverse, will go into drive but wont drive above 30 miles per hr for the most part
Not sure is it's related, but the shift buttons on the steering wheel don't work either-nor does the manual +/- on the shifter.
I'm having issues w the front suspension on my 2001 audi allroad wagon. i left it in an outdoor lot for 2 wks as I traveled for holiday. there's been a lot of rain in this area and i only have outdoor parking. when I returned from my trip the front suspension was shot. the car bounces on every little bump in the road and scratches from hanging so low. the rear suspension is fine. do you have any guess to what the issue is and an estimate on repairs? the car has 108k miles on it.
thank you
When my fuel indicator goes to just below the half mark my glow plug light flicker on and off and if i dont top up my fuel it just cuts out ...like it is just been starved of fuel..when i top up after some time of turning ignition it fires up
can i use fix it flat in air bag to hold up
Everytime the brakes are applied the warning symbol/tone comes on. The brake lights appear to work fine with the exception that the brake light on the hatch comes on with the headlights. The tone/warning light began when the rear undercarriage struck the lip of a ditch I was going over. Did find the rt side brake light bulb was seperated and changed it out. The tone is annoying as hell and I would like to disable it temporarily until this lighting issud is fixed.
After driving a little while and my engine heats up the dashboard cluster starts beeping and the oil light starts flashing. At first I thought it needed oil but didn't. I don't understand what the problem is. .
Just bought. Needs alternator (killed battery); replacing tomorrow and already have new battery. Rear suspension is up, front is down (remains this way with car running and also while off). Start the car: does not self level, compressor does not engage at all, ESP switch controls in dash do not illuminate (no power to switches). All fuses are still good with verified power to them. Was thinking originally there was a leak but now seems to be an electrical issue. No codes.. however, the dummy light is on in dash for air system. Any ideas and or direction would be very much appreciated. Thank you for your time. Good Day
City driving mostly. Southern CA. No salt or harsh road conditions.
Check engine light is on but engine runs like a top. The mechanic said he needed nearly $3000 to do this- more than the car is worth.
I just bought a used 2003 Audi allroad and I was warned b4 I put the car on a lift at a a local macanic shop I have to shut off the air suspension or the airbags will blow. Problem is I don't know how. Please can any one help??
and stay on for a few minutes then turn off. After several minute they come back on again and continue...
How can I make the tail lights shut off?
For some time oil seeps from engine onto exhaust, Audi service guy claims it's at a stage 2. I'm a joke in my town whenever I roll to a stop and the burning odor reaches other motorists. I don't find it amusing.
Love my Allroad!
Any info appreciated?
Just looking for the location of the fuel filter
mileage on car : 68,000. Should thermostat not last longer?
is repair necessary without having incurred problems?
mileage of car : 68,000. engine light on because of thermostat...does it need to be replaced or can one safely postpone this repair?
All engine seals have been replaced, including cam. Tech tells me I have to buy a new head. I want to find a less expensive way to fix it. They tried putting JB Weld on the outside, front of the head, but it didn't stop the leak.
dash light flashes-pump sounds,front end not going up at all, diagnostic reading says replace front suspension sensors
When in level one and I want to go to level two it seams to take forever. It is the same on going up to any level.
Pump low pressure?? or leak in somewhere in piping?
What do you think is the obvious fault??

M/B replacement
I need to replace the mother board on my Acer 5517 laptop.
I have ordered a new replacement (#PGY02.001).
Can i just drop the new board in or will I have to do a reinstall of Win7?:huh:
As long as the MB is the same, there is no reason to think it would need to be re-installed.
You should be fine.
What DM says -
However, be prepared to do a reinstall, anyway.
"Stuff happens"! :)
Good point Ross..... it IS windows, after all. :laughing:
I didn't! :)
(He, he, he!)
If it was XP - the "OP" would probably, have to do a "reactivation".
I'm not, that familiar with Win 7.
Thanks for the comments! I searched MS support and if the machine came with an OEM OS they said that the OS is associated with a particular board, and new copy of Win7 must be purchased.
However, they did say that if the board is not upgraded and the new is identical to the old, it may be OK!
I suppose, I'll just have to try it and see! :eek:
Even if they come with recovery/"OS" discs!
If you can, go into the "BIOS" and copy all the settings -
so that you can use those same settings for your new "MB".
If your new "MB" is identical to the old "MB" -
you should be OK!
Try to make sure that your memory "chips" - any, "add-on" cards - etc...
are in the identical "slots" - that they were in on your old "MB"!
Including your "drives"!
Watch your "cabling" - and "electro-static" discharge! :)
Also, depending on your "Processor", use fresh, 'heat-sink" paste - between the processor and
the cooling fan!
Good luck!!! :)
(Let us know!)
I ditched Win 7 and have been running a Linux distro,never looked back.
I'm stll trying to figure it out, but so far I'm impressed!
Stick with "Ubuntu" - give it some time -
It's pretty, good - as far as I know!
I couldn't find a whole bunch of things in ubuntu I needed to use it. Even when looking on line to get help!
for those looking for info on linux, here are a couple of links that I find invaluble:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ Lots of help there no matter what your question might be.
http://www.die.net/ online man pages / manual pages. Good info.
For the OP, be careful moving the processor from the old mobo to the new mobo. Like Ross said, use fresh heat sink paste or you could fry the processor in no time. Good luck.
I've dabbled in Ubuntu.
It's fairly easy to use. My kids even used it for awhile as a test!!
Changing the motherboard alone is enough to trigger the need for reauthing, but you can do it with any copy of Windows, be it OEM or retail. It's simply a way for Microsoft to make sure you don't install one registered copy on multiple machines. I have OEM copies of both WinXP and Win7 running on machines that I routinely upgrade with new components, including motherboards and processors, and reauthing is an easy process.
That, said, the motherboard on a laptop these days includes pretty much everything...processor, sound, graphics, wireless, so it may behave a little different. I have not tried it with a laptop but I'm going to assume that reauthing is the same.

Kerry Wong decided to take a look inside an old Tektronix 2213 and share his findings.
I love old Tektronix analog oscilloscopes and I could not seem get enough of them. So when I saw a cheap "untested, unknown working condition" Tektronix 2213 listed on eBay recently, I just could not resist the temptation to grab it.
Unlike the Tektronix 2445 I got earlier, Tektronix 2213 is a no-frills basic 2 channel 60MHz bandwidth scope with limited delayed time base capability, and thus is pretty easy to service.

Gym Dogs To Face Auburn Friday Night
Jan. 15, 2013
ATHENS-----Following its first win of the 2013 season, eighth-ranked Georgia will face No. 24 Auburn Friday at 7:30 p.m. at Stegeman Coliseum. The Gym Dogs are coming off a 196.200-195.775 win at Arkansas last Friday, while Auburn fell to Kentucky in its home opener, 195.525-194.250.
Georgia-Auburn History
This marks the 76th all-time meeting between Georgia and Auburn with the Gym Dogs holding a 72-3 advantage, including a 23-0 mark in Athens. In 27 dual meets between the two schools Georgia is 25-2.
Last year, the Gym Dogs won their dual meet against Auburn on the road, 195.975-195.600. Georgia also traveled to Auburn for the NCAA Regional and placed first with a 197.100.
In the first two meets of the season, Georgia has a combined vault score of 98.625. That is the Gym Dogs' highest vault score in the first two meets of the year since a 98.825 in 2003...Noel Couch missed has missed the first two weeks with an injury. From 2011-2012 she competed in the all-around in a school-record 28 consecutive meets...Cat Hires competed in the all-around for the first time in the season opener against Oklahoma. She tied her career-highs on vault (9.925) and bars (9.825). The Gym Dogs did not have an all-around competitor against Arkansas...Georgia has posted the high team score on vault, bars and beam in both meets this season, and a Georgia gymnast has also placed first or tied for first in all six of those events.
Freshmen Contribute Early On
Two of Georgia's freshmen have contributed in the first two meets against Oklahoma and Kentucky. Brittany Rogers has competed on three events - vault, bars and beam - in both meets, while Brandie Jay earned a spot in the vault and floor lineups. The two have combined for 10 routines, with nine counting towards the team score.
After securing its first win of the season Friday night at Arkansas, the Georgia gymnastics team moved up three spots to No. 8 in this week's top 25 national rankings. Current rankings are based on a team's average total score, and the Gym Dogs have a 195.813 average.
In the event rankings, Georgia is No. 2 nationally on vault with a 49.313 average. The Gym Dogs scored a 49.3 on vault in the season-opener, and topped that mark with a 49.325 against Arkansas. Georgia is ranked fifth on bars (49.088) and seventh on beam (49.0).
Individually, Shayla Worley is tied for fifth on beam with a 9.9 average, while Cat Hires is tied for sixth on vault (9.913). Sophomore Chelsea Davis is tied for 14th on bars with a 9.863.
2011 Flashback
Lindsey Cheek competed in the all-around for the first time in her career and tied the highest score in the country to date, logging a 39.550 to help No. 5 Georgia to a 196.650-194.975 win over Auburn Friday at Stegeman Coliseum. Cheek posted career-highs on all four routines include 9.9s or above on vault and bars, and claimed three event titles in addition to the all-around. Georgia swept the event titles with Cheek and Hilary Mauro taking vault, Cheek and Kat Ding taking bars, Cheek tying the Tigers' Rachel Inniss for beam, and Cassidy McComb taking floor.
Up Next
Georgia will be back in action Monday afternoon against Stanford at 2 p.m. The Cardinal - currently ranked 12th - have won a pair of quad meets to start the season.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The University of Michigan baseball program and head coach Erik Bakich announced today (Thursday, Sept. 6) that Aaron Etchison has been named as the Wolverines' volunteer assistant coach.
"Aaron played two years for us at Maryland," Bakich said. "He was on our Leadership Council and also served as one of our captains. He brings a lot of intangibles, which will be evident in his coaching every day. He is a young star in the coaching ranks and he is going to do a tremendous job for us."
Etchison comes to Ann Arbor after a two-year playing career at the University of Maryland. The Pendleton, Ind., native was a captain on the 2012 team that won 32 games, which was a 15-win improvement from 2010. The catcher threw out 14 of 26 base runners last season, which led the Atlantic Coast Conference percentage-wise for players who had enough attempts to qualify. As a junior, Etchison started 25 games for the Terrapins, hitting safely in nine of the team's last 11 games and serving as Maryland's primary catcher the second half of the season.
Before his two seasons at Maryland, Etchison spent his sophomore season at Chipola Junior College in Marianna, Fla. He hit .276 in 47 games with 29 runs batted in. Etchison started his collegiate career at Ball State University, helping the Cardinals to the Mid-American Conference West Division title in 2009.
"I am extremely excited to join the staff and honored to become a part of the Michigan Athletics family," Etchison said. "I look forward to working with the players and coaches as we strive to bring another championship to Ann Arbor. This is a great opportunity to begin my coaching career at one of the top academic and athletic institutions in the country."
Etchison worked this summer for Top Profit Fundraising in Indianapolis, Ind., helping find new accounts to run fundraising projects and working with professional teams such as the Indianapolis Colts sell tickets and VIP passes.
Etchison will graduate from Maryland with a bachelor of science degree in finance from the Robert H. Smith School of Business in December of 2012.

Brake pads
Need new front brake pads for my 04 X5 3.0- dealership wants $850 installed - should I just take it to a shop & have them done? Would be MUCH less.
Just for pads? That's crazy.
Any brake place can do it for much cheaper.
On your own even better.
Yea. Insane. I try to get all my work done at BMW but sometimes it's ridiculous. I just had the axle boots repaired there and paid 1k. I had an X5 before this one & i got my work done wherever & it started to break down before I got rid of it. So I'm trying to stay on top of this one.
That makes sense for some of the complex stuff (especially electrical), but if you just need a set of front pads, get them at meineke or whatever.
If you need rotors, they can be expensive, but not terribly difficult. I don't think there is anything regarding the braking system that is too complex for an indy, except maybe the Stability Control stuff...
$850 sounds? sounds like new front rotors also. does the dealer replace pads only?
I hope i only need pads. So expensive to get anything done to these things
Brake pads
I was quoted $935 for pads and rotors front and back.
Sent from BimmerApp mobile app
Nice... I better get another job to afford the maintainance on this
Brake pads
Man don't do it at the dealer it's I just done mine last week by my self ,I bought the front and rear break beds from the BMW dealer for only about $250 and I bought the sport high performance Drilled& slotted front and rear Rotors from the eBay for only $211, and I done the job by my self it's not gonna take time from you it's very easy simple to replace them and if you don't know how to do it go to the You Tube and do search for it and you will know how easy they are and even didn't need special Tools !!!, just gave it Try ,,,
Sent from BimmerApp mobile app
I will thanks
Brake pads
Careful though when DIYing brake pads and rotors as they require special alignment, planing and calibration, otherwise premature wear and tear can result, and if not correctly installed , can be dangerous.
Sent from BimmerApp mobile app
Im not a motorhead. I would not attempt this on my own. I just want a good job with quality parts for a fair price. I just dont know what s fair price is...
Brake pads
Any good euro or bmw specific indy will probably do your brakes for < 500 some may even let you purchase the pads and rotors of your choice and charge you for labor. most brakes all the way around should take no more than a couple hours at Best. that IMO is even pushing it when you know what you're doing and have the tools its really no different than any other modern car. along with air filters, oil and spark plugs; brakes are one of the simpler maintenance items on a car.

Brake pads
As it happens, I am getting new brakes next week for my e53 x5 2006, and I was quoted $525AU if it is just the pads front and rear, but if the rotors also require replacing, the job will cost $935AU , and this is a BMW authorised dealer master mechanic price in Perth, Western Australia. I think this is a fair price if you break it down:
4 rotors: $450
4 sets of pads: $250
Labor: $235
Sent from BimmerApp mobile app
I think so too. I wouldnt be able to do it myself and to know its done right(since braking is just a little important) really doesnt seem to be that expensive
Brake pads
Hi guys, as a price guide, my e53 x5 2006 3.0i just needed the rear brake pads replaced, and at a BMW authorised dealership, I paid $388AUD parts and labour in Perth, West Australia to get this job done. My car now stops very keenly!

Brody from KS asks:
When I am surfing the web I sometimes get strange message windows popping up. Windows Security Alerts or error messages saying that my computer is "infected" or "too slow". How can I tell if they are real and what should I do about them?
Recently there has been an upswing in the number of "Fake Security Alert" messages popping up as people surf the Internet. These message windows say: Your computer is too slow, has been infected by a virus, requires an update or already has been infected with Trojans and other Malware. They are all false warnings, designed to convince users to purchase illegitimate and possibly dangerous fake security software. This article will provide sample screenshots of these phony alerts and outline a few simple ways to recognize and prevent these pesky problems.
Ironically, as people become more aware of the potential problems of malware, the number of these fake message scams increases. Fortunately, there are a few general things you can look for to identify and avoid these phony programs.
1.) They generally use scare tactics that implore you to act immediately to remove a virus, download a critical security update or repair a serious computer problem.
Figure 1
2.) Even though they often try to mimic a legitimate company's message, there is almost always something that will not be correct. In the example below the Windows Security Center logo is correct and the title looks legitimate. However, the Web address is not Microsoft's and the download site that the "recommended" program will come from is also not Microsoft.
Some try to look like legitimate Windows Security Updates.
Figure 2
This fake Windows Critical System Warning! is very well done. Closer examination reveals questionable grammar, "and track Web sites visited" and a spelling error, "Secyrity". I also don't think Microsoft would warn about "Strange pop up windows".
Figure 3
These are just a few examples of what a fake message looks like. There are hundreds that might pop up on your screen. But you don't need to be overly concerned if follow a few general rules. Any message that pops up while you are on the Internet should be considered to be a possible problem until you have done a little research.
Often, just putting the name of the program to be downloaded or the address of the web site you are requested to visit in Google will provide enough information to determine its validity. Two of the largest Anti-virus software companies Symantec and McAfee maintain searchable lists of known threats.
So what should you do if you if a suspect message appears on you screen?
Do not move your mouse anywhere near it.
Clicking anywhere in the window including the standard looking red "X" in the upper right had corner of the window may start downloading the Rogue Software.
Try holding down the "Alt" key and pressing the "F4" key at the same time.
This should close the active rogue message window or the browser that is displaying the message. Then you can continue by opening your browser again.
If the "Alt" key + "F4" combination does not close the suspect message window another way to close it is outlined below.
1.Open the windows Task Manager by pressing the "Ctrl", "Alt"
and "Delete" keys simultaneously.
2.Left click on the "Applications" tab
3.Left click on your browser program or any entry listed as running that you believe may be the problem. Proceed to step 4 after the target program is highlighted, (often it will turn blue).
4.Left click on the "End task" button to close the program
You should always have an up-to-date firewall and virus protection software running every time you turn on your computer. In addition, you can set you browser to block pop up windows. There are several articles on the Worldstart site on how to do this.
Please note: Blocking pop-ups with your browser settings will not stop all of these rogue messages from getting through. Also, you may need to adjust you browser settings to allow pop-ups from certain banking sites or other online services you may not want blocked.
In addition, it is a good practice to run an additional anti-malware program every few days. There are many effective free programs available for download. One that does an excellent job is Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
You can read about it and download the free version here: http://malwarebytes.org/ [1]

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/3/2014 (1195 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Border guards at the Boissevain crossing spotted a couple of would-be smugglers in February.
Highlights from the month's worth of border crossings were released Thursday by the Canada Border Services Agency, which said that more than 113,000 people crossed into Manitoba from the United States last month.
In total, they made 12 seizures and issued a total of $4,000 in penalties for undeclared goods or smuggled contraband that were found during searches.
Most of the incidents were at the Emerson crossing south of Winnipeg, but two of them were reported at the Boissevain crossing in Westman.
On Feb. 4, according to the CBSA, two Manitoba men were returning from a week-long trip and declared $560 in purchases and two litres of alcohol. However, officers searching the vehicle found more than five litres of undeclared alcohol in a briefcase in the back of the travellers' truck. The passenger admitted that it was his suitcase and that he knew what was inside. Officers seized the alcohol permanently before allowing the pair to continue into Canada.
Then, on Feb. 15, a Manitoba man was returning to Canada in an SUV that officers decided to search. Inside, they found a large number of undeclared items, including 13 tires, nine rims and a snowmobile gear drive, worth a total of about $5,450.
Officers issued the man a penalty of nearly $1,375. They estimate that if properly declared, he would have paid around $275 in taxes.

For me, the measure of personal vanity hangs on whether someone is brave, stupid or desperate enough to have needles (nasty, sharp, bruising needles!) plunged into their face? A friend once had "work" done and said it was akin to paying good money to be stung by a giant steel bee. She didn't even like the effect – it was the fashionable "pillow face", popularised by celebrities who think it makes their faces look discreetly plumper, collagen-enriched, younger – but usually just makes them look pillow-faced.
This is the great con. The aim is "youthful" and "natural", but often all you end up representing is the derma filler. You become Restylane Girl. Perlane Lady. A walking billboard for procedures that other people are still deciding whether they're brave, stupid or desperate enough to undergo. "Does that look good on her – good enough for me to want a needle stuck in my face?" And some might say, oh blah, what's new, it is what it is. Except of course when it isn't.
Baaps (the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons) reckons that injectable fillers could be the next big cosmetic surgery scandal, to rival PIP, where 50,000 British women were given breast implants made of industrial-grade, rather than medical-grade, silicone. Baaps is not the first to point out that fillers in the UK are completely unregulated: fillers, some of which are banned in the States, are being bought straight from the internet. Barely trained practitioners are operating from high street beauty salons, hairdressers and manicurists. People are injecting themselves in their own bathrooms.
Baaps believes that fillers should be classified as a drug (agreed) and only administered by a doctor. Hmm. A cynic might ask: why only doctors and not, say, qualified nurses who, after all, perform the majority of injections?
One is also confused by Baaps' concern about the effect advertising has on vulnerable people seeking treatments for "psychological reasons". Well, aren't we all? With the exception of burns victims, mastectomy patients and others with specific medical needs, isn't the entire industry built on "psychological reasons"? More pressingly, something is niggling about this pat comparison with PIP.
Yes, in both instances, dire lack of regulation is key, but surely the similarities end there? While issues with fillers mainly rest on people not seeking adequate medical advice, a key factor of PIP was that the victims did everything by the rule book, for all the good it did them. Indeed, one of the most disgraceful aspects of PIP was how, by simply desiring larger breasts, the women were routinely judged to have "brought it on themselves". In truth, all of the women were assured by professionals that their implants were safe and proceeded in good faith, with the appropriate medical input. What more could they do?
Unless someone wanted to judge their initial desire for augmentation, in terms of contributing to their plight, the PIP victims score a resounding blameless nil. It was simply not their fault that they were given implants made of a substance usually reserved for mattress stuffing.
If the PIP scandal has any similarities to any looming filler scandal, then it is also markedly different. To lump these women in, even fleetingly, with the sort of reckless souls who think it's fine to get their faces injected by their hairdresser is farcical.
What I would say to the latter group is – are you barking? Your faces, and long-term general health, have to be worth more than this? What I would say to the PIP victims is, keep demanding treatment and justice, for you have done nothing wrong. What I would say to Baaps is that in PIP, we have a recent scandal where all was done appropriately, with medical supervision and surgical expertise in place, and look what happened? Perhaps you should think twice before reminding people about it.
Try not changing for a change, Gaga
Lady Gaga has caused controversy by appearing to be not quite so thin. Or, to employ the passive-aggressive hate speak du jour, she is now "curvier".
However, there was some confusion. In some pictures, Gaga looked pretty normal; in others, especially ones taken onstage, she resembled at least three pit-bull terriers with lipstick on. The words "photo" and shop" would spring to mind, but I just can't believe that any media outlet would doctor photos of Gaga just to make her look ridiculous. What is that you say? Oh I see…
Even more controversially, Gaga smoked a spliff onstage in Amsterdam. Sporting an outfit comprising a cannabis leaf T-shirt, ripped fishnets and a hairstyle straight out of soft rock central casting, Gaga raved about the "wondrous" drug and how smoking it was a "spiritual experience". Yeah, baby.
This is what I'd term a classic case of Fame Fatigue. Gaga has been ultra famous for so long, and in such an exhausting, overdone way – in the time it takes you to read this, she would have restyled 20 times – that she is now malfunctioning. Gaga needs to learn to pace herself, like others who stay the course in the international music scene. More than anything, she needs to release herself from the grinding tyranny of endless costume changes.
Neil Young hasn't changed his jeans in about four decades, but he's revered as a musical great the world over. Compare this to poor Gaga, running around frazzled, trying to think up another "all you can eat buffet" outfit. (Steaks, lobsters – what's next, potato salad?) So chill, Gaga, and stop being such a wardrobe whore. If she weren't so desperate trying to think up her next outfit, then she probably wouldn't need a crafty joint onstage.
King is a shining example, but is this sequel wise?
Novelist Stephen King has announced that there's going to be a sequel to The Shining, entitled Dr Sleep, which features Danny, the psychic kid on the tricycle, all grown up and messing about with vampires.
At present, King is one of the very few cool famous people on the planet. A brilliant writer, you barely ever hear from him, and when you do, he's hollering about how he and other multimillionaires should pay more tax. What a dude – I like to think of him as the Willy Wonka of horror publishing.
As an admirer, I will of course buy Dr Sleep, but I harbour grave concerns. Sequels, especially ones written an entire quarter of a century after the original, have a lot to live up to. Also, as Hollywood types might say: "Vampires are over!" – they've had the blood sucked out of them by the Twilight franchise.
More importantly, how is Stephen King proposing to get the now middle-aged Danny on to a tricycle? Isn't that going to look the slightest bit weird? With the best will in the world, Dr Sleep could end up being disturbing in a way the Master of Suspense did not quite intend.

Jan. 30, 2013
The University of Michigan baseball program welcomes a whole new coaching staff for the 2013 season. The staff has now been here for around seven months and will coach its first game on Friday, Feb. 15, at California. As we countdown Opening Day, we will introduce and get to know the new staff.
Next up is volunteer assistant coach Aaron Etchison. Etchison joins the Maize and Blue after a two-year playing career at the University of Maryland. He was the captain of the 2012 team that won 32 games as he threw out 14 of 26 base runners his senior year. Before his two seasons at Maryland, Etchison spent his sophomore season at Chipola Junior College in Marianna, Fla., hitting .276 in 47 games with 29 runs batted in. Etchison started his collegiate career at Ball State University, helping the Cardinals to the Mid-American Conference West Division title in 2009.
In this Q & A, Etchison talks about when he knew he wanted to be a coach, what it was like to play for Michigan head coach Erik Bakich, and what he has already learned in his first year at U-M.
Q: You grew up in the Midwest and played a season at Ball State. How does it feel to be back in the Midwest?
A: It feels good. Being out on the East Coast the past two years and then in Florida for a semester before that, it's definitely a different culture here. It's a little bit slower pace than the East Coast but it's been good. This place is unbelievable. Ann Arbor is pretty different from where I grew up; a lot more resources here, a lot more of a city feel.
Q: When did you know during your college career that you wanted to become a coach?
A: Well, Coach Bakich asked me pretty early on in my junior year once I got out there, and it was something I never really thought about. I always thought I would play the game until I got sick of it. Then once I got home this summer and Coach got this job and I kind of stepped back and was looking at what I wanted to do next, we talked about coming up here and got the gears turning and I realized I wasn't ready to walk away from the game. Going into a normal desk job wasn't for me. Getting the chance to link back up with him, I couldn't imagine a better situation to enter the coaching world.
Q: You are working with the catchers. How has that group progressed from the beginning of fall camp until now?
A: Coach Bakich does a pretty good job of changing the mindset of everything, and everything he talks about is what we want to have from every position, especially from the catchers in toughness and leadership. But they've been working hard and I'm excited to get out there and see how they've been and how they've progressed.
Q: What type of team will the fans see from a Bakich-coached squad?
A: Well I expect the team to take on a lot of his personality, just high energy, giving 100 percent and being relentless all the time. It's a ton of fun playing for him; it's a ton of fun watching teams play for him. It's just exciting and you know you're never going to get short-changed from him or from hopefully the team.
Q: What have you learned about coaching in your time so far at U-M?
A: It's been great. Coach Bakich, Sean, Nick, Wayne Welton and everyone around has been great. They've shown me the reins; they've taken me under their wing. They treat me awesome. The number one thing is to learn from example from those guys, seeing how hard they work. It's all the time, non-stop, never looking to cut any corners. They've been great on all facets.
Q: How excited are you to start the season?
A: I'm excited. It's going to be a little bit different in the first year. It's been 18 years or whatever I haven't played, so it's going to be a different look and I'm sure I'll want to run right out on the field again this year but I'm excited for the guys. They've worked hard, they deserve it and it should be fun to bring in a new era of Michigan baseball.

Jack White may be best known as the former frontman of Grammy Award-winning rock band the White Stripes, but the singer/songwriter/producer/instrumentalist (and one-time actor) is, not all that surprisingly, also a founding member of The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather. As if being part of three commercially successful rock bands is not enough, White has also collaborated with an eclectic mix of powerhouse musicians including The Rolling Stones, Beck, Danger Mouse, Alicia Keys, Bob Dylan, Insane Clown Posse, Loretta Lynn and more.
His debut solo album "Blunderbuss" is White at his best, bringing elements of blues, classic rock, R&B and folk, along with his oddly poetic lyrics. White produced each song and wrote all but one on the 13-track album.
The first single, "Love Interruption," is the perfect introduction to an album filled with clearly personal stories of collapsing relationships, loss, frustration and passion, presented in a way only White can pull off. Leadoff track "Missing Pieces" sets the pace with a bluesy vibe and slightly depressing, if not brilliant lyrics. "Sometimes someone controls everything about you/ and when they tell you that they just can't live without you/ They ain't lying, they'll take pieces of you/ And they'll stand above you/ and walk away, that's right, And take a part of you with them."
"Sixteen Saltines" is the album's second single, featuring infectious guitar riffs and powerful vocals and lyrics dripping with jealousy. "She doesn't know but when she's gone I sit and drink her perfume/ and I'm sure she's drinking too/ but why, where and what for and who?"
"Freedom at 21" follows a femme fatale of sorts, who is never quite within reach. "Cut off the bottoms of my feet/ made me walk on salt/ Take me down to the police/ charge me with assault/ Smile on her face/ she does what she wants to me." His impressive electric guitar solos and piercing vocals make this a standout track.
White has never been quite as weird, brilliant or unpredictable since his time in The White Stripes – making "Blunderbuss" one of the more worthwhile rock albums out there.
The album is available now, and White is making a stop at WaMu Theater Aug. 14 at 8 p.m. Tickets are available on http://www.ticketmaster.com for $46.50.

Pulsating brakes
The front brakes of my car pulsate when applied, which is much more noticable at high speeds.
I am guessing that the rotors are no longer completely flat.
What do you need to do to fix them? Is it possible to machine down, or replace the rotors without having any special tools or is it something best left to the experts?
depending on what kind of car this is and the thickness of the rotors and how warped they are, there are a lot of different answers.
with some vehicles, it's as easy as pulling off the wheel and the brake caliper, possibly 1 or 2 screws used to hold the rotor in place and rmoving the rotor and putting a new one on. Some others are a real pain in the rear.
If there is enough material left, a rotor can generally be machined to return it to a flat and parallel surface.
so, what kind of car and how many miles are on it?
the other thing that can be very important: if the rear brakes are not working properly, it causes the front brakes to do a lot more work than they were designed to do. That can cause the brakes to overheat and warp the rotors.
Ayuh,... Generally speakin',...
If the rotors are warped, it's from the calipers not releasing as they should...
Odds are, you'll need new rotors, 'n calipers...
Pulsation during brakeing, that can be felt through the whole vehicle, is mainly caused by "warped" rotors.
"Petal pulsation" is mostly influenced by variation of rotor thickness. This problem is more prevalent in rotors that have been turned.
Unless you know the person turning the rotors, I would highly recommend replacing. Many times, I have had rotors turned down and they were machined UNDERSIZED. This is dangerous and has no excuse but ignorance.
Replacement is sometimes less expensive then machining.
What I have seen on my cars is pulsating in the brake petal is caused by unueven pad wear. Vibration felt in the steering wheel (sometimes the whole car) is due ot warped rotors. A bad caliper either stuck or not working will cause severe brake pull to one side. I agree on the rotors. Depending on the car replacements can be 5-10$ over the cost of machining. Of course some rotors are expensive so turning them sumetimes saves alott $$$. Sounds like it is time for a basic brake job.
Warped brake disks myth - read before you start turning your rotors
StopTech : Balanced Brake Upgrades
its a 2001 Neon. High milage, so im pretty sure the rotors have been replaced at sometime, but if its not too difficult, Ill see what I can do to replace them myself.
Anyone have experience with this type of car?
here's a sample of Blanchard ground rotors
Old Britts, NORTON, Rotor, Disc Brake
for ur purpose, simply buy new rotors and replace them. they will run about $30-40 for quality ones.
it's about 20 minutes per side to replace one. basic tools required.
THEN DO ROTOR BREAK IN PROCEDURE AS ADVISED. or you'll be replacing rotors for the rest of your life, or paying grossly for resurfacing them on old, wobbly lathes they use in tire shops.
Good article. The only cavet would be that it is written by a company that also want you to buy their high performance brake components. Regardless, it is a good article. One more tips.
-Use a torque wrench for all bolts. Including the wheel lug nuts. Uneven torque between fasnters can cause uneven wear and warping. Especially on the lug nuts.
How many miles since your last brake job?
If you have aluminum wheels, you should re-torque the nuts after 50-100 miles of driving as well.
I had the rear shoes replaced about 8 months ago, and the checked the front brakes at that time and said the pads still had a lot of life left in them.
So for replacing the rotors, its just remove the tire, remove the caliper, pop off and replace the rotors.
You dont need to bleed the brakes or anything, correct?
I know rotors usually come with a film of oil to prevent corrosion during their store-life, that needs to be cleaned off, but other than that, I am not aware of anything that needs to be done
especially due to the common use of anti-lock brakes, I suggest never pushing the caliper piston back without first opening the bleeder screw. It can push dirt into the ABS controller and cause a lot of problems.
60k miles! Wow...put new pads on. A basic set of pads is cheap. Spending a little extra for good pads is worth it IMHO. Plus, you will be taking it all apart soon anyways. Plus, you risk causing other problems since the pads and rotors have worn out together. New rotors with uneven worn out pads is not good. I know the temptation to stretch them as far as possible is irresistable, but your car will thank you.

I will also have to respectively disagree with you on the Sports Agent comment.
"An agent needs to have a Law background, specifically contract and sports law. A background in Business doesnt hurt either."
An agent does not NEED to have a Law background. I believe this to be the biggest misconception in the Sports Agent industry. There are both Attorney Agents and Non-Attorney Agents. Of course you need to be able to interpret the contract and massage the language a little. Mike Barnett is a perfect example of a non attorney agent. He represented Wayne Gretzky and some of the biggest names in Hockey. He successfully sold his practice to IMG before becoming the GM of the Phoenix Coyotes.
To become a successful sports agent, you need to be able to put in the work. It requires a lot of time, and a lot of work to land a good client, and once you do, you must be able to keep him. This is where having a specialty comes in. Again having a Law Degree will certainly help, but so will having financial planning experience, and having great negotiating skills. This is by far the key. A Law degree and all the business background in the world aren't worth a dime, if you don't know how to successfully sell your product, which is your player.

OT- Crabcakes in O.C
I need a little help. I have not been down the shore since I was about 10 years old, but I'm off to O.C this summer for a few days. I want to take my wife out for a really great crabcake for our anniversary but dont know where. Even though its an anniversary, the atmosphere is not as important as the quality of the crabcake. In fact, lowkey would be better because our evening will be mini golf and then dinner.
As a point of reference, we consider koco's on harford road the best crabcake we've found in Baltimore.
Any suggestions for O.C?Actual user comment from a yahoo sports article:

The replacement of the bin with the ashtray is fairly straightforward, involving removing the shift knob and popping the center console up (simpler than it sounds). A hundred or so in parts for the tray and cover.
The cost gets stupid when you try to match the skin on the ashtray cover to the trim skin on your center console. A new set is >>$100, because you can't get just the ashtray lid skin alone. Best bet is to go looking for the parts on eBay.
Once you have the parts in hand, perhaps 30 - 60 minutes on the morning of the nice Sunday drive.
EDIT: Had one too many zeros in the skin cost.

Separate names with a comma.
Headphones item created by , May 5, 2010
Pros - Strong Bass Without Distortion
Cons - None...
I bought these originally for $210 CND, then the price went down. O.O but I am not complaining cause they are not so bad.
Pros - Cheap, good lows, extremely comfortable, sort of isolating, short wire, tiny plug
Cons - Headband and joints feel flimsy, veiled and uninvolving mids could use more definition
It's an unfair comparison, but I'll compare them to AKG K 272 HD, source being FiiO E7 USB DAC for both. (I equalize the AKG by +3dB through 20-80Hz)
The soft, pillow like earpads are a godsend. The leatherette feels comfortable, and doesn't cause sweating. The joints and headband aren't as assuring, and feel prone to breakage. Since they're a gift for my gf I won't break them just to try it out. Oh well, atleast they're very light and you just forget about them in five minutes. The short cord has a cute tiny 1/8" plug that won't get in the way with portable use.
First time playing Ayreon on them, which has plenty of beautiful female and male vocals, melodic instruments, reverb and all sorts of funky effects, I found the XB-500 mids lacking, and they just didn't seem to come from anywhere in particular, and there was this weird veil that took all the detail away. After the headphones had burnt in my ears in a week, the mids didn't bother and I wholeheartedly found the sound enjoyable, with a really entertaining lows and good highs. For 40€ the SQ is great, although bass at times felt a bit bloated and uncontrolled. With gaming the mid-range veil and smooth bass are a non-issue, and in gaming the soundstage doesn't run inside my head too much, so for gaming they're a really valid option, although they're certainly not horrible for music use either. Definitely not for the most critical listener, though.
When my ears had settled for these cans and I swapped to the 272 HD, my ears faced a complete blackness in mids and highs and the dimension was far greater than with the XB-500, like there'd be another world inside the headphones. The bass felt a bit clinical and fell short after getting used to more, so props for the XB-500 making things sound 'fun' and groovy. All in all I preferred the bloated bass while gaming and listening to some genres like dubstep and rap, but with dance, metal and electronic music the 272 HD feels much more at home due to the crystal clear detail all around (especially when the shortcomings of bass are equalized.)
I'll listen to them for a month before handing them to my gf and see if my opinion changes, but I think I'll look for Beyerdynamic offerings the next time I feel like I want something with bass. They're a lot more expensive though, so I've got to cut the XB-500 some slack and admit they're awesome for the price. I'll try out the XB-700 if their mids would be better. I'm not rushing to the store to get another pair of XB-500 for myself, I'm sure my gf will plain love them! Although the overall tone of this review is positive and I like them, there's just something I'm missing that I have in the AKGs, hence the sub four star rating. Still, great value.

Missouri Drinking Rule
A Mexican drinks his beer and suddenly throws his glass in the Air, pulls out his pistol and shoots the glass to pieces. He Says, "In Mexico our glasses are so cheap we don't need to drink from the same glass twice."
An Iraqi, obviously impressed by this, drinks his beer, throws His glass into the air, pulls out his AK-47 and shoots the glass to pieces. He says, "In Iraq we have so much sand to make Glasses that we don't need to drink out of the same glass twice either!
The Missouri girl, cool as a cucumber, picks up her beer and Drinks it, throws her glass into the air, pulls out her gun and Shoots the Mexican and the Iraqi, and catches her glass she Says, "In America we have so many illegal Mexicans and Arabs That we don't have to drink with the same ones twice.
God Bless America !
Bless her heart!That look on my face is not concern, its shock at your utter stupidity!

2. D.J. Shockley vs. the Tech pass rush: Shockley had a great deal of time on a number of crucial passing attempts in the second half. He had plenty of time to find Mario Raley and Bryan McClendon on the game's penultimate drive. One of Tech's three sacks came in the fourth quarter.
3. Keep emotions in check: Both teams appeared to behave themselves during the game. There were the normal outbursts towards the officials from coaches and players and the normal smack-talking that goes with a rendition of "Clean Old Fashioned Hate."
