1994 530i Nikasil engine block issue
I have the 1994 530i. I believe it was the first or one of the first V-8s that BMW put in a 5-series. Here's the thing I have gathered from a lot of different sources and I do have a question at the end of this post and welcome any corrections or additions to this information.
I understand there was a production split on the engine in this model (1994 530i) for imports into the US and that some of them have an aluminum alloy block known as the "Nikasil" block and that this engine often becomes defective around 70,000 - 150,000 miles.
I also believe that BMW recognized the issue early on and for the first few years after it was put out, BMW had that particular engine under recall but only if it failed on you.
So if it started to deterioate around right now (2012) in my case with about 170,000 miles on it, you're kind of screwed. What I am understanding is happening with the Nikasil block is that even just the small traces of lead in the gasoline (even if unleaded gas) cause the 7th and 8th cylinder heads to deteriorate early and the engine starts to miss and probably will fail altogether. These are things that I have been told by the BMW dealership and a BMW mechanic who weren't trying to sell me anything and I don't know if the information is true but it is what has been told to me.
So here's the thing is that this is a great car to drive and everything else on this car is either up to date or has been replaced, new brakes, tires, bushings, alignment, radiator, this car runs amazing and the interior is great. Cruise control is awesome on long trips, great leather interior, great manual shifting, incredible engine performance (until recently) and great safety features. It's a great car. I could go on for a while about it but you probably get the point because you are here in the first place. But one thing I will say is that I am disappointed in BMW because they should take more responsibility for engines that are likely to fail in the 100,000 - 150,000 mile range because that is low mileage for a 5-series engine to fail if it has been properly maintained and maintenance is not the issue here and when you buy a BMW, I think you should be able to expect at least 250,000 miles out the engine as I think that's the standard they should still be holding themselves to but I'm not going off on that anymore so here's my specific issue:
I am not a mechanic and not very familiar with technical terms but anyway, I could get a replacement engine for this car at a pretty reasonable price and I'm wondering if anybody here knows:
a) how I would be able to tell if the replacement engine I am considering buying is the Nikasil block, if that is possible. The replacement engine does have an aluminum block head but I think all the engines have that and that is not an indicator that it is the Nikasil block.
b) how much would a reputable mechanic charge to replace the engine in this car with the replacement engine?
Read this - http://www.bmw4life.com/nikasil.htm
Verify the numbers on the block.
I would suggest that if your engine was at 170k miles and had good compression you have nothing to worry about.
The cost to replace the engine, if you are not doing it yourself, is more than the car is worth.
....and welcome to the forums
Thank you very much, great information! If I may ask a follow up question, why do I have nothing to worry about if I had good compression up until 170,000 miles? Is that because it is probably not the Nikasil corrosion issue but something else affecting the idling or at this point?
The one thing I have not done is have the spark plug and spark plug wires replaced, which I plan to do next week. I've had it checked for vacuum leaks and pretty much everything else it could be except for the spark plugs. I am embarrassed to admit that but it's the situation.
The dealership did a whole diagnosis for free and replaced the e-prom and thermostat and billed me nothing for the diagnostics or the parts or labor for that problem, because, believe it or not, this model is still under factory recall for an issue with the e-prom and thermostat. But it was a bummer when I got the car back and still had the low idle and the hesitation in acceleration that is also occurring with the low idle. The car rides great at about 60 mpg - 80 mpg in 5th gear, with no hesitation at all, if that helps any. And thanks again.
Average 70mpg? Must be a typo - 16 or 18 I would run with. If you have lost compression on two cylinders only it probably not be a bore/block problem. Get brave (rich) take the heads off and recondition them. Full turne up and cooling system service. Then see what problems you have.

I've just changed my wiper blades and now my reverse lights don't work. Should I change my fuel pump relay?
yes, that was a typo. What I mean to write is that it rides great and without hesitation or any noticeable loss of power in 4th or 5th gear, from 60 - 80 miles per hour. Starts to hesitate above about 80 mph.
I've just had cooling system service so I'm going to go with the low-hanging fruit and get new spark plugs and spark plug wires and see if there might be any oil leaking in there somehow when I do that and see if that takes care of it as I'm going with the least expensive things first. And I'll update sometime next week after I get to that, on what results I have.
The nikasil issue had nothing to do with lead, but sulphur. Gas sold in the 90s in some places had too much sulphur to be nice to the nikasil block. All the nikasil blocks were replaced when they started noticing this issue, and not just the ones that had problems. Car recalls affect all cars with the defective part, and not just those that have issues.
You don't have to worry now because gasoline is unleaded everywhere and all sulphur went out together with the lead. In any case, there was a good chance that your engine was replaced. Besides, if it had not been replaced, it was probably given a steady diet of premium gasoline in its early years, which would have been unleaded anyway, so you don't have to worry about nikasil deterioration.
Please read the maintenance threads at the top of these forums. In particular, please change out the following immediately or asap to new OEM stuff : fuel pump, fuel pump fuse, fuel pump relay and crankshaft position sensor. These components commonly fail unpredictably at this stage in our car (read through these forums), and when they do, the car will not start. What's worse is that they often do not give any warning of impending failure. It has happened so many times its ridiculous. But the great thing is that these are known issues so you don't have to learn about this the hard way. Buy OEM stuff and you're basically good for the next 1- years. Do this even if your stuff seems to be working fine right now.
Also, have your battery and alternator tested with an electronic battery tester, for good measure. It only takes 5 minutes total for this, its too quick a test not to do and you do seem to be concerned about keeping your car in good shape.
The main reason why I feel that you don't have a compression problem is because you are so pleased with your car. If the compression is not great, the car will not drive well, and you probably won't be writing so enthusiastically about it. :-)
2. Check out the long maintenance list that I posted up here for someone else who just bought his first E34 :
You might find it relevant. CHeers.
Don't forget to disconnect the spark and fuel for compression tests (pull fuses and relays). Get your servicing and repairs up to date. If it is suspect or history unknown change it and keep a repair log. Dont forget the fuel filter - they clog and only allow reduced through put.

Thanks everybody, great ideas and info! I'm going to try the different suggestions as I am able and will post the results here.
Oh, and please download a soft copy of the Bentley manual for E34s. You will need it....good stuff.
So it seems that your engine was great until recently so it has nothing to do with the nikasil issue. Don't bother about it. You shouldn't have gone there at all really, so I suspect that you're overlooking the simple and obvious stuff. Probably the spark plugs, wires, that sort of thing.
Remember to change your brake hoses to steel lined ones. You can buy them off ebay, they are good. The cost the same as OEM ones, yet provide better braking, and one of the best value-for-money upgrades for our car. Furthermore, your current hoses are liable to be cracked or soon begin cracking. Unfortunately you've already done some brake servicing, which would have been the ideal time to change them but perhaps you can do so anyway.
OK, I was reviewing the service records from the BMW dealership from when they did the recall work under the factory warranty just last month. They replaced the oil filter so it can't be that. Now, please forgive my ignorance but is the oil filter different from the fuel filter that someone above recommended changing? If not, I'm not going to do that.
As for not having the Nikasil block, the BMW dealership said I had it after looking at the car. I am looking at the records here from last month where it states:
"Cylinder walls may be washed out as per SI B11 02 97."
"Engine is Nikasil block."
Now I also realize that the dealership sometimes doesn't know jack but for what it's worth, I am adding this information here because that is what is written on the service records.
I remain ever optimistic that replacing the spark plugs and spark plug wires will resolve this because it has been thoroughly checked for vacuum leaks and the overall compression seems good but this darn hesitation and low idle just basically appeared out of nowhere about two months ago so I am hoping for a burnt-out spark plug or wire.
Can I blame this on the fuel in Oregon having a 10% ethanol content?
Oli Filter not the same as Fuel Filter. Oli Filter fitted to engine - Fuel Filter is fitted in fuel line. Unsure exactly where on your veh..

but if it was the fuel filter, I would think that the hesitation (loss of power issue) would occur all the time, during acceleration and cruising, at all RPMs and be noticeable all the time.
One thing I have mentioned and I think has some relevance in this diagnosis is that the hesitation is generally occurring at lower RPMS and then the car runs very smooth, at say, 60 mph in 4th gear or 80mph in 5th gear, like you would expect. But then if you start to push the RPMs up over 4,000 - 4500, like over 85 mph in 5th gear, the hesitation will start to kick in noticeably although the engine is still quite responsive, there is definitely some loss of power and a hesitation.
The idle control valve was checked as someone mentioned that above. It is controlled by the computer and all of the computer settings were all programmed in manually by the dealership after they replaced the e-prom and thermostat last month.
Dealership also switched it from synthetic oil to regular 15W-30. I could see why you would do that but I thought that was interesting that would be a factory-recommended oil, for what that's worth.
Change or rinse our your fuel filter and change your air filter. Then add 2-4 quarts of diesel to an empty tank and then immediately fill to full with regular gasoline, and then drive. This will clean out your fuel system.
After doing all of the above, then see if you have the same problem.
If you still have the same problem, it would be time to get your car scanned again.
Oh yeah include the spark plugs and wires too.
All of these might look like we're throwing parts at a problem without knowing what it actually is. However, all of these things (new plugs and wires, new oil and fuel filters, clean ICV, cleaned fuel system) are essential aspects of keeping the car in good shape anyway and need to be done from time to time. So its something that is required regardless.
I'm beginning to wonder if the CPS is at fault. hmm. Seems unlikely, if your car is not throwing the code. Have you done the stomp test yet ? Have you taken a look at the Bentley manual ?
it seems to me like I should still just do the spark plugs and spark plug wires to see if that resolves it before the entire fuel filter clean-out, although that sounds just crazy enough to work! :o) I like the way you think.
Here's the thing is this car is not worth more than $3,000 and there is nothing more that is going to be covered by the factory warranty so a new scan is going to go at least $120 and that's just the diagnosis so you can see where the math starts to not work, despite my heavy emotional attachment to the vehicle. I love the vehicle and its new breaks and I can just live with it even if I can't go 120 mph and just have to go 80 mph with some hesitation in accelerating, I can live with that, based on the age and value of the vehicle. If it were a 95 540i, I might feel differently but there might just be something to this Nikasil block. I can't completely discount that possibility that the Nikasil block has caused deterioration to the cylinder walls.
"I'm beginning to wonder if the CPS is at fault. hmm. Seems unlikely, if your car is not throwing the code. Have you done the stomp test yet ? Have you taken a look at the Bentley manual ?"
Unless the dealership is completely lying to me, I can eliminate the CPS because they said that the new e-prom took the code and that the CPS did not need to be replaced because it was properly holding the code and software after the installation of the new e-prom.
I have not done the stomp test unless you talk about how I feel like I would like to stomp on the heads of like 3 service managers and I have not looked at the Bentley manual. I did not do my homework.
The problem was the ecu. We were swopping in another ecu with a different tune. We had this problem. I'm sure it could have been solved given enough time (these chips are being sold for many years) but my friend elected to go back to the stock ecu for simplicity.
You say that you had an eprom recoded ? Well I think they could have ****ed that up.
There is something called the stomp test that allows you to read your own car's codes. Google and check on youtube for details.
The CPS, fuel pump and fuel pump relay ought to be changed to oem ones even if they are working fine now. They will fail unexpectedly at this age and your car will stop dead anywhere. The only time I wouldn't change it is when I have evidence that they were changed in the last few years.
I suggest you change that CPS, do all the stuff that you plan to do (they need to be done anyway) and see. If the problem remains, we know who is at fault. Tell them to test it by borrowing another ecu and swopping it in (you might have security system issues though those can be bypassed) and you'll know for sure.
Or you can go back to them right now. You've only recently had this issue right? It only appeared after they meddled with your eprom, right ? There you go.
I would also expect poor spark to manifest itself at other rpms as a misfire, though the v8 can mask one bad spark pretty well.
Start with the fuel system, the filter isn't that much, and a pressure test should be cheap at a decent euro car indie mechanic. I would stop using the dealer. The techs do not remember the car, it is too old and they are certainly helping themselves to your wallet.

'95 740iL '84 318i/5
The nikasil issue tends to manifest itself in a rocking of the engine at idle. I had a '95 740iL that started to show signs at 96k miles. The car had warranty up to 100k, I traded it off because the dealer said it wasn't bad enough YET. The actual preliminary diagnosis was to idle the car with the drivers door wide open and gauge how much it would shake up and down. This rocking was caused by compression loss.
It is actually the sulfer content that was so hard on these engines. At the time US content was above euro standards. Today most of the sulfer is removed from our gas so if the compression is good now, today's fuel will not likely worsen it.
So when people tell you that if your nikasil engine still runs good today, that it probably will last a long time, I think that is accurate.

If I select cs6 because I am working in this version, what happen then my sell will decrease and what happen if I make mistake and give different version which is not compatible have to face a hard reject?
If you will set different version compatibility in preview and your clients will have problems with opening/editing your file, your work will be disabled. Make sure what features you use in your design and with which versions are they compatible with.
Thanks for your reply.

From the slightly obnoxious (supermodel Gisele Bundchen famously said hers "didn't hurt in the slightest") to the more realistic (Danica McKellar, better known as Winnie Cooper of "The Wonder Years," admitted that it was tough and that she had "Western medicine close ... just in case), celebrities seem to be embracing natural childbirth all over again.
But is skipping the epidural brave and commendable, or is it just plain crazy?
We asked Randi Hutter Epstein, MD, a medical writer and the author of Get Me Out: A History of Childbirth from the Garden of Eden to the Sperm Bank, for the real deal.
"Women tend to be horribly judgmental of each other about child-rearing, beginning with conception," Epstein says. "For some women, natural childbirth is what they really want — they want to cherish the birth and feel proud of themselves for doing it without any drugs. And there are other women who are just as good mothers and just as good women who feel that the drugs available today are safe and they don't feel like enduring the pain of childbirth."
So what are the reasons some women go drug-free?
"There is a risk of headache after having an epidural, which is a huge downer on top of being exhausted and all the other normal discomfort after childbirth," Epstein says. "Plus, it means you're adding more people around you, more tubes, more checks. And it's a needle in your back!"
But what about the pain?
"The biggest drawback of natural childbirth is, there is more pain," Epstein admits. "For some women, that might be scarier, and increased fear does make you tense, which can make it harder for the baby to get out."
Is there any way to get the best of both worlds?
"Some women say that natural childbirth isn't painful, it's just your attitude — but it is painful! The trick is to find some techniques to get your mind off the pain," Epstein says. "Anyone who can teach you some meditation or visualization techniques will be really helpful.
"And remind yourself — the pain of childbirth isn't a constant pain. It's very up and down. So if the pain is really hard to take, remind yourself that once it reaches the peak, it'll be over again just as quickly."
The bottom line? Choose what's right for you.
"There's this pressure these days to do a marathon at nine months pregnant and then have natural childbirth and fit into your skinny jeans two weeks after you give birth," Epstein says. "I say, if you personally feel better about natural childbirth, then good for you. I kind of wanted to do it that way. But women who want to go through it without the pain are good mothers, too — they just have a different attitude. It's not more valiant of women if they want to go natural, it's just a personal decision."
Would you consider natural childbirth?

This was about to go straight to the top of my list of AV purchases until I read that although it has two Freeview HD tuners, it can only record one programme at a time. That's such a missed opportunity.
I should have also asked, what's the difference between this and the BD-D8500 you reviewed a few months ago? I can only see the HDD storage size as being doubled here. That review seems to indicate that the menus are slower (sluggish) than the 8900 but I can't see how that's possible when they appear to be exactly the same apart from a different hard disk. Why even bother to review this one in that case?
Very good effort by Samsung in comparison to its rivals.
However, why not recordable BD? Simple, that will be on the Autumn model!! May be with a Freesat tuner instead of a second Freeview HD tuner? After all tvs are now coming with a standard Freeview/sat tuners.
Like I said drip feed to keep the Customers buying. However not good for the environment all round. Also not good for the commodity prices.
I posted in a comment about the BD-D8500 and thought to post here in case it gets mist. You can't use the Hub features, allshare features or USB attached devices while your recording. It asks you if you want to stop recording if you use those features. Other than that i love the 85500 and yes the 8900 is the same unit but different size hard drive.
Besides the doubling of memory to 1TB the other differences I've noticed are BD Profile 5.0 instead of 2.0 on the BD-D8500M, and 2 HDMI outs instead of one. So main difference remains the 1TB memory.
I'm a bit disappointed with this unit which I bought to replace a Panasonic unit. As mentioned by palms, when recording, the hub i.e. internet and any wifi attached disc content is not available. Also when recording, the guide menu is laboriously slow to respond. Unlike my old Panasonic, I can't watch from the beginning a program which I'm currently recording - this is a real limitation which I didn't expect.
It also tends to reset itself a few seconds after being switched on. This unit seems feature rich but poorly executed.

"I have not yet used these for my upcoming baby shower but they are perfect! Love the colors and the print quality is great."
"I've ordered this card twice!. I used this card as a thank you for my baby shower gifts. I LOVE them. The card stock is of great quality, the colors are vivid, and I just think they are so cute. I will probably order them again when I run out."
"I ordered thank you cards to say tgank you for my babyshower gifts and they came out perfect. So adorable. They have my daughter's name on them and a girly but not overkill with frilly stuff..."
"This note card is super cute with the right amount of outdoor fun and girly flair. I have received numerous compliments on the style of this personalized card. The paper is nice and thick and the speedy delivery from tiny prints is always appreciated!"
"I changed the font, and chose the color of the font to be brown instead of pink. I also put my husband's and my name on the card since we will be using these as thank you cards for baby shower gifts (and we are not announcing the baby name yet). I think they are perfect- my favorite is the photo I added of our dog on the back (for no additional cost!). I am very pleased with this product."

It's really the only thing I can think about when I'm sitting in meetings. December 1st: that's my deadline with Fortress, and as I'm writing this chapter on secrecy in the ancient Mediterranean context, I'm more and more aware of the complexity of the topic. Secrecy has different functions in different societies. In the ancient Mediterranean context, it had a variety of functions, and a variety of Greek words are used to refer to secrecy. Here's the kicker: most secrets in the ancient world weren't really all that secret. Their function wasn't usually to keep information hidden, but to create social exclusivity. In this way, the ancients were very different than we modern folks, though we can see similar uses of secrecy in some modern organizations that in theory allow only initiates access to certain information.
I have a really good research assistant. I hope I don't work him to death.
Got back some time ago… just didn't blog. Alaska was a great trip, but it took some recovery time. Spending some time back in Texas for a while was good, but it was great to get back in the office. I really missed it. Is that a sickness or something?
Over the summer, I did manage to get some work done on the book that I'm writing for Fortress Press, Honor Among Christians. I have a deadline of December 1. What I'm really doing is turning my dissertation into a work that people actually might like to read (at least, a few people). Dissertations generally do not make enjoyable reading. They are written for a committee of scholars who may or may not be on the same wavelength with one another. The intent of the dissertation is to show that the writer has explored the topic in exhaustive detail, formed an exhaustingly tight thesis, and argued for that thesis with exhaustive and exhausting clarity. Really, dissertations are very tiring.
Revising is not easy work. Revising often means rewriting. And my experience is that the revision process is one in which every so often I say to myself, "Self, did I really write that?"
So, if you're reading this blog, what I want you to know is that I am currently in the process of developing a book so very interesting that no one will be able to resist buying, reading it from cover to cover, and buying copies for all of his or her friends.
We visited the village of Teller today, which is about 70 miles from Nome. Most of the road to Teller is unpaved, so it took us a couple of hours to get there. On the way we saw muskoxen and moose.
While there we met with missionary Brian Crockett. He's been there and at Brevig Mission for twenty years. He has about fifteen people in worship on a good week. Brian is an extremely intelligent and dedicated individual, but he is working in what is surely an exceedingly difficult context. The standard of living in Teller is much lower than in Nome. Most houses don't have electricity or running water. Subsistence hunting and fishing are important, especially since Nome is at such a considerable distance. Apparently, however, these skills are being lost among the younger generations of Alaskan Natives.
Brian's talk raised a number of important theological issues for discussion that evening. Most importantly, the issue came up of how a white, Christian from the Midwest can speak to Alaskan Natives, who have very different cultural values. We had a very good debriefing afterward.
The other half of our group had lunch at the XYZ center with local seniors today. Most of the people who eat there are Alaskan Native elders, so it was great to get the opportunity to visit with them.
The seniors were going fishing after lunch, so we were able to join them. We fished in the Nome River, but we didn't catch very much. A couple of folks caught flounder. Myself… I caught a few sticks and some seaweed.
After dinner we went on a tour of Front Street, an area along the waterfront with a number of bars. Alcoholism is a huge problem in this community. We were told that the sale of alcohol in Nome, a town of about 3,500 people, is a $5 million a year business. Another problem is gambling in the form of "pull tabs." These are cards that work basically like slot machines, but rather than pull a lever, you simply pull back a cardboard tab. In one bar, the floor was littered with these. The used cards on the floor were piled up at least a foot high by the bar. This must have represented thousands of dollars in money spent on pull tabs.
There are formidable problems in this community, but there are also some extraordinary people doing incredible work here in service to Christ. It's quite a place.
After the Front Street tour, a few of us went fishing again. I still didn't catch anything. I was almost carried off by mosquitoes, though.
Quite a day today. Some of our students helped to host Care Force, a radio show hosted weekly by Julie Elmore on KICY. The show was mostly about prayer requests from people in the community and surrounding areas. All of the students did a great job.
After the radio show was over we met with Wilfred Anowlic, an Alaskan Native who is originally from King Island, a very small island about 87 miles from Nome. The King Island community was forced to move to Nome some years ago, but the members of this community have remained a tightly knit group. Wilfred has a very interesting story, including a life of subsistence hunting on the Bering Sea, a stint in Vietnam, homelessness, a journey out of alcoholism, and appearance in a couple of movies, such as Steven Seagal's movie, "On Deadly Ground."
Half of our group had lunch with Alaskan Native elders at a retirement center in Nome. The students were able during this time to interact with people who have seen the considerable changes that have taken place for Alaskan Natives over the last century.
We had dinner with the Nome Ministerial Association in a cabin by the Bering Sea. It was pretty darn cold until someone lit the heater inside, and then it was pretty darn hot. Nevertheless, it gave us the opportunity to hear various perspectives on what ministry is like in this isolated and unique context.
Oh, and I saw a reindeer riding in the back of a pickup truck, which seems a little more normal the longer I'm here.
It's cold here. Not by Alaska standards, of course, but I am from Texas originally, so 40 degree July weather is not something I'm used to. Nome residents seem not to be bothered by this, however, as many of them are walking around in shorts and flip flops.
We toured two radio stations in town, one operated by the Covenant Church, and one by the Roman Catholic Church. Great work happening there. Both broadcast into Russia. The Covenant Church station, KICY (seriously), broadcasts directionally into Russia. They had to get the Geneva Convention to sign off on this, and apparently were able to do so.
We had lunch at Airport Pizza with the Nome Rotary Club. The presenter was a young man named Jesse Zink, who has been a missionary to South Africa. His story was really incredible…. massive challenges dealing with HIV and TB. Now he's off to Yale Div. because he wants to study Christianity in the southern hemisphere.
In the afternoon we engaged in different service projects. I spent most of the time with kids from the children's home on the church playground. They were a lot of fun.
Dinner was crab legs and halibut. Can't complain about that.
I had a hard time getting online yesterday, so I'm a little late in posting this. We flew into Nome yesterday. Nome is an extremely isolated community. It is not at all what I expected. Community UMC here and the Nome Community Center are doing some incredible work here, but the going is tough because the problems are manifold. The most significant seem to be poverty, alcoholism, and gambling (pull tabs). Nevertheless, the folks who are doing the hard work of ministry here seem to be making headway, despite the uphill battle that they face.
We talked with Barb Amorak yesterday, an Alaskan Native who spoke to us about the perspectives of Alaskan Natives who have been affected in extremely negative ways by ANCSA, the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. It was hard to hear, but important. The students I'm with were good listeners, not argumentative or defensive, but inquisitive. In many ways it was a good conversation.
The only laundry facility in Nome is in a bar, and it cost me ten dollars to wash and dry a load of laundry. Milk is $8 a gallon. Gas is about $4.50. Pretty much everything is incredibly expensive, in part because everything has to be shipped in by barge or plane, but I suspect that another reason is that customers don't have much choice. The isolation of this place means that many stores have virtual monopolies.
The good folks of Community UMC have treated us very well. We're enjoying their fine hospitality.
We drove south to Seward today and took a five-hour cruise. We stopped at Fox Island and saw wildlife around Resurrection Bay. We saw probably eight to ten humpback whales during the trip.
We also met with Rev. Peter Perry at Seward UMC, and we had a very interesting conversation with him about life in a small Alaskan parish. To be an effective pastor in this area seems to take not only calling and dedication, but adaptability and commitment to being in ministry in contexts that are often very isolated. I think that Alaska would be fascinating place to be a minister, but it would be challenging.
Tomorrow we're off to Nome. We're flying because there are no roads into Nome. As the saying goes, "All roads lead to Rome; no roads lead to Nome."
We had a great day today. We worshipped at Anchor Park UMC at 11:00 a.m., and at St. John UMC at 6:30 p.m. Students participated in both services. After morning worship we had lunch with folks at Anchor Park at Moose's Tooth, a very fine pizza joint, even if they did stick thirteen of us at a table for ten.
Then we went to the Alaska Native Heritage Center (www.alaskanative.net). There were some demonstrations of Alaskan Native games and dancing, along with a number of artifacts and replications of Alaskan Native buildings.
After 6:30 worship, we met with Rev. David Fison, who has created two magnificent Christian totem poles. Many people think that totem poles represent idol worship, but at least among Alaskan Natives their purpose is to tell stories. Rev. Fison has carved totem poles that tell both the Christmas and Easter stories, but which do so in Tsimshian idiom. Carved by hand, these totem poles took him years to create. You can read more about them here.
We debriefed over dinner. Folks are still a bit jetlagged, as it's four hours earlier here than in Ohio. The day's events, and especially the totem poles, provoked some very good discussion.
Still, I can't get used to daylight at 11:00 p.m. Just doesn't seem right.

Tips for flea treatment for dogsDIY Project
Fleas – small and irritating
Fleas not only irritate dogs, if they are not treated these pests can harm the health of any dog. Flea bites are not only painful, they can cause serious infections, or allergic reactions, which in turn may lead to hefty pets bills. Fleas reproduce quickly and can spread from one pet to another, on to furnishings, and then on to people. Therefore, fleas despite their tiny size can cause a great deal of discomfort and trouble.
People should regularly groom their dogs to keep them cleaner and also as means of checking for infection by fleas. If you spot any bites whilst grooming your dog then take immediate steps to treat for a flea infection.
Treat to get rid of fleas fast
Here are some useful tips regarding flea treatment for dogs.
As soon as owners suspect, or even know that their dogs have got fleas they need to arrange for treatment as quickly as possible. The longer it takes to get rid of the fleas the more trouble they can cause.
If the flea infection has been picked up at a really early stage then a flea treatment shampoo or wash might be adequate enough to solve the problem. Should that be the case then seriously consider buying a flea collar as a means of deterring fleas away from your dog.
There are over the counter flea treatments available from pet shop centers and also from larger supermarkets. All such treatments will have full instructions provided, just treat the dog as the instructions tell you to.
Normally flea treatments are for a set number of days, or weeks. Give your dog the treatment for its entire course even if the fleas have gone away to make it harder for any to come back. People if they have had to use treatments before will spot the signs of flea infection and will use the treatments earlier.
If over the counter treatments do not work consult a vet
Over the counter treatments do not work it is time to consult a vet. This is a more expensive option as you will probably have to pay for a consultation and then a prescription too. Prescribed flea treatments for dogs are stronger than anything you can buy over the counter.
Vets will need to be consulted if dogs have had a flea infection for longer and other treatment is needed. Antibiotics and special creams may have to be used to clear up infections that are harming the dog.
Prevention is better and less expensive than cure
Treating dogs for fleas can thus be expensive and time consuming, particularly if vets had to be consulted and prescribed treatments had to be used. Preventative steps are simple to make, and do not involve any particular effort to take.
Dogs need to have their coats brushed more often, which not only means dogs are better groomed it means possible flea infections will be spotted much sooner.
Shampoo your dog on a regular basis, that would keep the fleas away. Use the shampoos that are meant to prevent fleas.
Start buying and using flea collars for your dog. These collars are designed to deter fleas for a set period of time. Remember to always renew the flea collar as soon as the other one has run out.

Dear Tax Talk,
How can I deduct the cost of college for my grandkids? I have been helping them out, but never deducted any of it. I think we might help more people if we could at least get a deduction for it. Are there any tax benefits for education?Thanks.

Dear Tax Talk,
How can I deduct the cost of college for my grandkids? I have been helping them out, but never deducted any of it. I think we might help more people if we could at least get a deduction for it. Are there any tax benefits for education?
-- Billie
Dear Billie,
Your grandchildren are fortunate to have you as a grandparent who wants to help them with college. The IRS has a lot of tax benefits for education in the form of either credits or deductions, but unfortunately, unless your grandchildren are your dependents, you will not be able use them on your tax return.
However, there is something that you can do that will help with taxes, and that is to put your money into a 529 college savings plan for your grandchildren. There are two types of plans: prepaid tuition plans and savings plans. Each state has its own plan, but you are not restricted to your state's 529 savings plan, so be sure to compare the various features of each plan.
The contributions to the plan are not deductible on your federal return, but are tax-deductible in many states. The earnings in the account are not subject to federal tax and generally aren't subject to state tax when used for qualified education expenses of the designated beneficiary, such as tuition, fees, books and room and board. Allowed expenses even include the purchase of any computer technology or equipment and related services such as Internet access.
If you contribute to a 529 plan, there may be gift tax consequences if your contributions, plus any other gifts, to a particular beneficiary exceed $14,000 each year. If that is the case, there is a special rule that applies to contributions to 529 plans and the details for it are included in the instructions for Form 709 United States Gift Tax Return.
IRS Publication 970, Tax Benefits for Education is a good resource for taxpayers to guide them through the various tax benefits when paying for college or other postsecondary educational expenses.

Bruce Willis & Emma Heming: Proud Parents of Baby Girl!
Posted Monday April 2, 2012 10:38 AM GMT
It was a huge day in the lives of Bruce Willis and Emma Heming yesterday (April 1) as they welcomed their first child together.
Daughter Mabel Ray Willis was born, weighing in at 9 pounds, 1 ounce and mother and baby are both healthy and happy.
This makes four daughters overall for Bruce, as he has three with ex-wife Demi Moore- Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah.
Emma and Bruce got hitched three years ago, and announced this past October that they had a baby on the way.

PU Surgery Recovery What should I expect?
My dear boy Lincoln had emergency PU surgery on Saturday after developing obstructions 3x in the previous week. He did have struvite crystals but his urethra was also bent, maybe from being suckled as a kitten. I am picking him up from the hospital today and I have discharge instructions but they are very clinical. I wanted to see if anyone had experience with this and could tell me what I can expect during his recovery. I would like to know what to look out for as a red flag as well since a lot of the symptoms of the recovery seem similar to the original blocking symptoms.
Thank you!

Been where you are! Our cat, Linus, came home from his PU with a collar of shame he had to wear for two weeks. We also kept him in a quiet room away from our other kitties with his own personal litter box so we could monitor his output. Lots of water (we bought a fountain), wet food (our vet prescribed Science Hill CD canned). Do not use dry food at all - even the prescription stuff. Everything you can do to keep him well hydrated will help. We eventually added glucosamine because his problems persisted. Afer PU surgery, boys may be a little more likely to get a non-struvite UTI because he has a shorter pathway. PU surgery does not cure the problem, it reduces the liklihood to block. So symptoms of blockage would be the biggest red flag. Keep an eye on how much he pees, decreasing amounts going more frequently may suggest infection brewing. Hopefully he will be a much more comfortable kitty in a few days. There are many good resources for care on line. catinfo.org is one.

My cat Panda had urinary surgery for stones 6 years ago now, and he's 15 1/2. I feed him Royal Canin SO dry and Purina UR wet (prescription). He likes the Royal and Purina better than the CD from the vet. Dry food is better for cat teeth, since when your cat gets older he will not be allowed to be put under for dental anymore. Panda also has a heart murmur (diagnosed at his surgery) when I noticed he was trying to pee but nothing was coming out. He was in surgery 48 hours later... talk to the vet techs and have them explain anything that you don't understand before you leave the vet. There will be a recheck and suture removal in a week and a half, when your vet will check on your cat's progress. Thanks for caring and follow your vet's advice... they know what they are doing! ^_^

I need to make 2 birthday cakes this weekend. I would like to make 1 donut cake. I was thinking of making it in 2 round cake pans. Maybe with a hole in the middle, but not sure how to put the hole. Or maybe without a hole and filling them with cream, jelly etc. Then stacking them on top of each other with glaze in the middle as glue and maybe some glaze on top. I would like to make it using a raised dount mix. Do you thing this type of donut cake will turn out ok? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help.

What are some things to keep in my car to make my car have the "art of manliness"?
Like, what should I have in my glove glove? Should I hang anything from the rear view? and any other car accessories should I have?
I have a drop kit in my car with the drop kit essentials. I'm debating whether or not to keep a change of clothes in a weekender bag in the trunk.
I have another duffel bag with: Fix-o-flat, air gauge, gloves, folding poncho, flashlight, paper map, umbrella, and duct tape.
How else could I upgrade what I already have?
Views: 3058
Have a bumper sticker that says "My Other Ride Is A Pussay."
Change of clothes, Duct tape and gloves? Do you rape the hitchhikers before or after you kill them?
Unless you're driving an Aston Martin DB5 convertible in the English countryside, i'd lose the driving gloves.
I always keep a cell phone charger and a silver mylar steering wheel cover handy, too.
Texas has 10 months of "summer" weather. That steering wheel gets hot, hot, HOT!
Oh, and vise-grips. Might not be a perfect tool, but it's a "catch all" when you're missing the right one.
Steering wheel covers are accidents waiting to happen unless they're laced on. Seen it several times.
I've never seen one of those mylar covers in the frozen north Chuck. I'm referring to the cheezy rubber steering wheel covers with designs like flames, hello kitty, etc. that just slip on the wheel. They slip off during quick turns. Mostly see them on teenage girl's cars as we roll up to the accident scene.
Here, asphalt is a (think) liquid for a good portion of the year. And the greenhouse windows on a car can make even *touching* the steering wheel a painful experience.
Once you've been branded by the seatbelt buckle, you know it's summer in Texas.
Holy crap! Thanks for that info. Ours are coming off as soon as I get home.
Vintage or new ?

Anyway if anyone can suggest other brands or options please do I need other options to consider and right now I don't know of many, just got my '13 WRX last week so i'm new to Subaru. Also I wanted to know if anyone has installed a short shifter with the stock bushings and how that turned out, installing the upgraded bushings seems like a lot of work.

London's Poverty Profile has been created by one of London's largest charitable funders, Trust for London, and the independent think tank, New Policy Institute.
Skip Navigation
Looking specifically at the time period between 2009-11 and 2012-14, the unemployment ratio came down by 0.5 percentage points in London: down by 0.7 in Inner London and 0.3 in Outer London. However, seven boroughs experienced an increase in the unemployment ratio between these time periods, with the largest being Havering with a 0.5 percentage point increase to 6.5 percentage points. Of these seven boroughs with an increased unemployment ratio, six are in Outer London, with Kensington and Chelsea the exception. At the other extreme, there were nine boroughs that had a fall in the unemployment ratio that was double the London average. Six of these were Inner London boroughs, and the largest fall was Lambeth at 1.7 percentage points.
The three boroughs with the highest unemployment ratios are all in east London: Barking and Dagenham (9.8%), Tower Hamlets (8.8%) and Newham (8.6%).
London has a better unemployment picture than some of the other English core cities, however, most of which have seen either no change or a worsening unemployment ratio. For example, Sheffield's unemployment ratio has increased by 1.3 percentage points. Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Manchester (narrowly defined) have done as well or better over the last few years, but still have higher ratios overall than London.

Greenville's Ron Blanding has enjoyed a life of recreation and service
Ronald "Ron" Blanding has dedicated most of his life giving back to Greenville after being born and raised here.
He is an entrepreneur in the milk business who gave back to the community by serving on a variety of boards and participating in many clubs.
Blanding, 83, believes everyone should be involved in their communities in some way, giving either time or money.
"When you live in a town, you should do something for it," he said.
Blanding interrupted his working life and service to tour much of the United States and parts of Canada by land and water.
"Milk was all I knew"
Blanding might have had milk running through his veins in his younger years. He spent a little time on the dairy farm that his father and brother owned.
Blanding Milk Co. was located in Greenville from 1911 to 1965. Blanding fondly recalls the company's gas-electric milk trucks.
"Some people think this is a new trend, but they have been around," he said.
After graduating from Greenville High School in 1946, he joined the U.S. Marines. Blanding was a staff sergeant during his four-year stint in the military.
Blanding married his first wife, Melody, in 1947 and they welcomed three children, Michael, Christopher and Rebecca, between 1949 and 1955.
Blanding worked at Sealtest Dairy in Jacksonville, Fla., while he was stationed in Florida during his military service.
"Milk was all I knew," Blanding said.
Blanding moved back to Greenville and became an entrepreneur when he left the military.
He started by joining Blanding's Dry Milk Sales as a partner in 1955. The company led to another business 10 years later, Blanding's Truck Leasing Services.
Blanding kept a scrapbook with pictures of each of his trucks that he leased with the business' names on them.
Blanding also owned Blanding's Recreational Sales-John Deere from 1971 to 1974 before selling it.
Public service
Blanding began serving on the Greenville City Council in 1965. He served as mayor pro-tem in 1966 followed by mayor from 1967 to 1970.
In 1970, Blanding resigned from the council to spend more time working with his various businesses and with his family.
Blanding then served as a director of First State Bank of Greenville from 1970 to 1978 and on the United Memorial Hospital Board from 1977 to 1978.
Blanding said he enjoyed all of the jobs and boards on which he served. His favorites were his three years as mayor and eight years as a bank director.
After divorcing his first wife, Blanding remarried in 1971 to his second wife, Irene, now 86.
Irene Blanding, who hails from the Upper Peninsula, came to Greenville to enjoy the Danish Festival. While in town, one of her friends set her up on two dates. Ron was to be the second one.
"I never got to meet the first date," Irene said.
Ron showed up early to meet her.
"I never let her go home," he joked.
The couple has been married for 40 years.
Touring North America
Irene's first husband died before they met. She told Ron life is too short to wait for the things they want to do when they got married.
"Let's not waste time," Irene recalled telling Ron. "Let's have some fun."
That is exactly what they did. They moved to Florida soon after getting married.
Ron also collected classic and antique cars. He has owned about 150 cars in his lifetime, but never more than 13 at a time. His favorite was a 1910 Marmon.
"He loves antique cars." Irene said. "It's not (just for) recreation, it's an obsession."
The Blandings took the cars all over the country. Ron was involved in four or five antique car clubs, which allowed them to take traveling tours that usually lasted about four weeks.
They loaded up one of their classic cars on a trailer and drove to the start of the tours. The tours all sent the Blandings around several states in their classic cars before ending up where they started.
Ron parted with his beloved Marmon during one of the tours. A guy who had been eyeing the car asked Ron what the asking price would be if he sold it, Irene said.
"He just threw a number out there and the guy said, 'Sold,'" she said, laughing.
The couple even had a 43-foot boat they used to see the world. Their biggest trip on the seas took them along the East Coast from Florida into Canada.
"Altogether, we have been through 140-some locks," Ron Blanding noted of their adventures.
Settling down
The Blandings returned to Greenville in 2000, living just down the road from the house they originally lived in before moving to Florida.
Although Ron is retired, he still keeps pretty busy.
He has since served on the Greenville Planning Commission, Greenville Board of Review, State Boundary Commission and Montcalm County Board of Commissioners.
Ron also was president of the Greenville High School Alumni Association and president of the Grand Rapids Horseless Carriage Club (antique automobiles). He remains a member of the American Legion, Greenville Lions Club and Sigma Theta, a Greenville men's club.
"I enjoyed doing all of it," Ron Blanding said. "I like being involved."
He feels fortunate to have experienced everything in his life and to still be healthy.
"I am proud of him," Irene said of her husband.

But I have seen the beauty of good, and the ugliness of evil, and I have recognized that the wrongdoer has a nature related to my own — not of the same blood or birth, but the same mind, and possessing a share of the divine. And so none of them can hurt me. No one can implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry at my relative, or hate him.
– Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
Marcus is saying to prepare yourself for the ugliness of situations and people you meet every day by reminding yourself that YOU just as often act and are perceived this way by others. So cut them some slack, Jason.
