At last, I am posting some follow up comments made by Danielle, mother of the twin boys featured in the 60 Minutes segment, Science of Sexual Orientation. Part one is here and should be read first.Danielle said this in her initial email:I often wonder "if" I had told Adam that "yes" he could be a girl when he became old enough would he have stayed on that track of thought? However, at the urging of his therapist I told him I understood he was a girl yet he was really a boy and couldn't … [Read more...]
60 Minutes Science of Sexual Orientation: An update from the mother of twins
May 14, 2008 by 229 Comments
Recently, I posted a link to a NPR broadcast outlining two approaches to treating children who are gender non-conforming in their play and activity preferences. In light of that broadcast and the controversies surrounding these different approaches, I provide an update from Danielle, the mother of twin boys first featured in a 60 Minutes broadcast originally aired on March 12, 2006. The segment, titled Science and Sexual Orientation, was by any measure a provocative program. The producer … [Read more...]

Dealer Service Reviews
where are all the Chevy dealers?Written by woodstock8 on 09/04/12 06:35:54 PM PDT Go back to Service reviews
Recommend this dealer? No
I come here b/c it's the only dealer available within 25 miles. Their service rep is really friendly. I thought I was at Lexus with the type of personal attention I received. HOWEVER, they have a staff shortage. Waiting time is quite long, and when the wait was over, my car was not washed like they promised, and the lube job on the sunroof made the previous rattle worse. The cost for labor is also excessive -- it takes 3 hours b/c they are under staffed! It's awkward giving a low rating to a team of real nice guys, and they do try, but at the end of the day the job quality matters. Since there seems to be a dearth of Chevy dealers in the east bay and their sales department is not interested in selling (I was actually told to go to Dublin to buy the Camaro SS at the price I offered them, which I did), they can consider allocating resources from sales to service.

Preach Jesus
Full Product Description
In the early days of my Christian walk, I attended the Sakubva Assembly in Mutare Every Sunday evening the senior Elder would allow every member to feel free and share the word. [Preaching] I loved this occasion because it was my desire to preach the word of God. After preaching I would go to the elder so that he could help me in the expository. It was my deepest desire to explain and expound the scriptures like one of the church's prominent evangelists. The elder pointed out that I needed to learn how to preach Jesus before I could be in the mould of the evangelist. These words sank deep in my heart, and I desired to know more about Jesus. Throughout the years I have listened to different speakers preaching Jesus. I have watched movies about Jesus; and the more I read, and study the words of Jesus I get challenged in my life and pastoral ministry.
Preach Jesus by David Simango was published by ShieldCrest in April 2016. The ISBN for Preach Jesus is 9781911090199.

Exercise for Pregnant Women
Exercise for Pregnant Women
People need to exercise regularly to keep fit and healthy and being pregnant is not an exception. There are plenty of exercises to do when one is expecting but a lot of individuals and experts would say that the best exercise for pregnant women is swimming.
Swimming is highly recommended for those who have access to a pool, whether for free or for a small fee. The reason for this is that swimming renders a heavily pregnant woman weightless on water and this allows free movement of the body without putting pressure on the knees and back.
If you have been an avid swimmer prior to getting pregnant, you can easily adapt and move despite the changes in the body and swim just like you normally would. This would benefit your cardiovascular system as well.
On the other hand, for those who are not too confident swimming while pregnant, you can substitute walking as your choice of exercise instead. Most women resort to walking because one does not need any equipment to get a nice workout. Also, gestational diabetes mellitus patients will benefit from walking after meals, that's why this type of exercise is a popular exercise for pregnant women. You can also easily measure your progress with a pedometer, while tracking the empty calories that you eat.
Whatever your preferred exercise is, always keep in mind that you shall be exercising to prime your body, so it will meet the stress of labor and delivery. Also, make sure that you engage in a safe exercise because you would not want to hurt yourself or the baby by overexertion and grunting too much.
Pregnant women must also exercise to ease the discomforts of pregnancy such as back, leg, neck and shoulder pain. Finally, exercising properly will help you maintain your ideal body weight and keep your blood sugar levels in check. Before performing any kind of exercise while pregnant with your baby, always consult with your obstetrician for your own safety.

Extremists targeted in Bali raids
Indonesia Correspondent
Denpasar, Bali
Page Tools
POLICE have launched raids on Jemaah Islamiah strongholds across Indonesia in a widening hunt for members of the suicide cell that launched last weekend's bomb attacks in Bali.
Police have also spoken to a man who claims to know at least one of the suicide bombers who targeted cafes on the tourist island, killing 22 people, including four Australians, and injuring more than 100.
But claims that bombing suspects were already detained were rejected yesterday by senior police, who said the 39 people interviewed so far were being treated as witnesses.
Accounts of survivors and material found at blast sites suggest the bombers manually detonated explosives that were loaded with ball bearings, according to sources close to the investigation.
Police spokesman Brigadier-General Sunarko said forensic experts had found nine-volt batteries, wires and ball bearings with traces of explosives at all three sites.
"Sweeping" raids had been conducted in several areas, including a Denpasar suburb from which the organisers of the blasts were believed to have fled.
The raids occurred as locals in Bali were alarmed by a series of anonymous SMS messages warning of a bombing in the tourist precinct of Seminyak, near Kuta. The unsubstantiated messages prompted the Australian Government to issue a new travel warning.
Another message seemed designed to provoke religious conflict, calling on Balinese people to attack Muslims.
The alleged spiritual head of the Jemaah Islamiah network, Abu Bakar Bashir, denounced the latest Bali bombings from his prison cell in Jakarta.
However, Hidayat Nurwahid, chairman of Indonesia's Parliament and leader of the major Muslim political force, the Prosperous Peace and Justice Party, blamed the bombings on rivalry within the tourism industry.
He called for a halt to speculation that the bombings were the work of "a certain group from a certain religion".
"I have valid information that these acts may be related to inter-state competition in the tourism industry," he said.
Indonesian anti-terrorist squads are believed to have launched raids across Java in attempts to capture the pair suspected of masterminding the attacks, Jemaah Islamiah bomb makers Noordin Mohamad Top and Azahari Husin.
Police say Azahari may have transported explosives used in the attacks to the East Java town of Mojokerto in July. They are searching for a JI sympathiser believed to have sheltered him.
Investigators have also descended on other hardline strongholds in Sumatra and Sulawesi.
One of the imprisoned ringleaders of the 2002 Bali bombings, Ali Imron, said he believed the bombers were recruited by Azahari and that the nine-volt batteries were "characteristic" of Azahari-made devices.
Some of the 39 witnesses identified by police told of seeing two men with strong East Java accents acting strangely outside the Nyoman Caf, one of two seafood cafes on Jimbaran beach struck by the bombers.
National Police spokesman Aryanto Budi Hardjo told The Age that police had received information from a man who claimed to have met one of the three bombers. He refused to provide further details and said the man's identity needed to be protected. But the detention of a Javanese man apprehended leaving Bali after the blasts was not related to the attacks, General Sunarko said.
Another two men reported arrested on suspicion of involvement were not considered suspects and may have been pickpockets, according to Bali police chief Mangku Pastika.
General Sunarko said police had not established how the bombs were triggered, but a source close to the investigation said it was "highly unlikely" that the bombs were detonated by mobile phone calls.
Meanwhile, Indonesia has reacted coolly to Australian calls for it to outlaw Jemaah Islamiah. Foreign Ministry spokesman Marty Natalegawa said it was "not that simple" to legislate terrorists out of existence.
He said Indonesia deserved credit for having taken "concrete action" against terrorists. "The act of not banning the organisation is not undermining Indonesia's ability to go after these individuals," he said.
Prime Minister John Howard confirmed he would again ask Indonesia to outlaw the group, but warned it may not make it safer for Australians in Bali.
Mr Howard has also written a message of condolence to the people of Newcastle after the deaths of three people from the city Jennifer Williamson and married couple Colin and Fiona Zwolinski in the latest Bali attacks.

Steamed Salmon with Watercress and Lemon Butter
Salmon: All Alaskan wild salmon are sourced from environmentally sound fisheries.
Recipe: Steaming keeps fish moist and couldn't be quicker. Here watercress is steamed with the salmon, and both benefit from a spoonful of lemon butter. You could use olive oil instead of the butter, however, or just serve lemon wedges.

This device masks unwanted noise in the home, office, or schoolroom, by creating richly textured ambient sound, which can be customized from eight primary natural sounds and eight audio overlays. This double-layering technology creates a three-dimensional soundscape, a far superior aid to relaxation than the flat sound loops of simpler models. Helping to shut out all sorts of distracting sounds, from barking dogs and snoring spouses to keyboard clicking and air traffic, it realistically re-creates the soothing sounds of nature and other selected ambient sounds. Eight base sound selections (White Sound, Lakeshore, Surf I, Surf II, Rain, Country Eve, Brook, and Thunderstorm) can be played alone or combined with any of eight digital overlay sounds (Sea Gulls, Frogs, Buoy, Hawk, Loons, Songbirds, Dove, and Owl) to create a tranquil environment. The unit has a 4" speaker for acoustic clarity, slide controls for adjusting tone and volume, and an LED indicator that displays your selections. A 60-minute "nap" timer can be set to automatically turn the unit off. ABS plastic housing. Plugs into household outlet; includes auxiliary jack for headphones. 8 3/4" L x 5 7/8" W x 3 1/8" D. (2 lbs.)

Indore: The promotions for the films can be sometimes tiring, but no one can complain when thinking about Chitrangda Singh's experience. During the promotion of her film "Yeh Saali Zindagi", Chitrangda was in Indore, in a mall. Her hairdresser, Amrita, was with her, the same hairstylist who worked for Aishwarya Rai for the films "Robot" and "Raavan".
With such expertise, who wouldn't trust the woman? Well, things aren't quite like that. At a moment, Amrita saw herself with Chitrangda's purse and cell phone, and simply took off. She got in a car and rushed to the airport.
Nobody had her number, but they called desperately on Chitrangda's phone. The actress and her colleagues searched for the hairstylist everywhere in the mall, but there was no trace of her anywhere.
Seems like Amrita will not have any work to do in the near future, since this is not the first time she vanishes during a promotional tour without informing anyone about her whereabouts. Nobody knows where Amrita has been all that time, but fortunately she appeared at the airport just in time to leave to Mumbai.

Nestled in a dimly lit restaurant in downtown Manhattan Beach, Ron Guidone and his daughter, Talia, are tossing memories back and forth across the table, smiling as they sip on wine and tuck into decadent crabcakes.
Talia was just 6 months old when Guidone opened his California Italian restaurant, named after his daughter, in 1977. Now she's Talia Frederick, an interior designer with a husband and two children of her own.
"I remember the main chef was this giant man with big biceps in this tiny kitchen," she says, laughing. "He would put me on his bicep and do curls and spray whipped cream in my mouth."
"You began seating people for Sunday brunch when you were ... ," Ron begins.
"Twelve. And I started waitressing when I was 14," she replies.
Soon, two couples breeze by the floor-to-ceiling windows and into the restaurant, the women squealing with excitement at the sight of Guidone and Frederick. One woman's expression turns somber as she recalls the big news: Talia's will be closing its doors after 36 years.
It wasn't a decision Guidone came to lightly. Plenty of people over the years had offered to buy the Manhattan Avenue hotspot, located on one of the most desirable streets in one of the most desirable towns in the country, the ocean just a glance away.
But now seemed like the right time for Guidone to move on. He has embarked on a new endeavor - a chain of upscale hamburger restaurants called Eureka, which he opened with his son-in-law, Talia's husband, Paul. Guidone, 71, will continue to own Mangiamo Ristorante & Bar, which he opened in 1984 also in downtown Manhattan Beach, and the more popular dishes at Talia's will move over to the Mangiamo menu.
Longtime customers say they'll miss the cozy, romantic ambience only Talia's could offer, with its intimate seating, dim lighting, mahogany accents and large chandelier made with glass from Italy.
A couple deep in conversation over glasses of wine at the bar tell Guidone and Frederick that they had their first date at Talia's. Chrissie Manson picked the restaurant, which she visits often, for the blind date, arranged by a mutual friend.
"It's a small, cool, boutique-y restaurant with great food and a great ambience," Manson says.
Although he will miss his longtime patrons, they weren't the hardest part of Guidone's decision.
"I care very much for my employees," he said. "I had chances to sell before, and I've always worried about my employees more than making money. Making sure my staff was going to be taken care of was the hardest part of selling it."
Guidone developed a culture of respect in his restaurant.
"I always told them, `The manager is no more important than the dishwasher or the bus boy. If someone doesn't show up or do their job, everybody is in trouble,"' he said. "I always insisted that everybody treat each other with the utmost respect."
The closing of Talia's seems like the end of an era for some who remember the downtown of the 1970s, spotted with candy and cookie shops, a drugstore, hardware store, dress shops and hamburger joint.
Guidone bought the property in 1972 for $70,000; it was one of the oldest houses in Manhattan Beach. He added on to the front, which is where the restaurant sits, and converted the rooms upstairs into offices.
"When I first opened, it was a neighborhood joint. There were just a few little restaurants," Guidone said. "Now, downtown is fancy-schmancy, people with a lot of money and famous chefs."
Guidone, a self-taught chef whose father worked in the food business in Italy and eventually Indiana, designed the menus - featuring old family recipes like the fettucini Alfredo or chicken Marsala and others he created himself - and trained the kitchen staff at all of his restaurants. His wife, Lisa, has been "running" the Manhattan Beach restaurants for several years, he said proudly.
Guidone's focus has always been good quality, friendly service.
And it's done him well.
Celebrities frequent his eatery, attracted to the "very quaint, private" setup. "They can be alone and not be hassled by a lot of people," he said.
One day, Guidone got a call from Oscar winner Francis Ford Coppola's mother, who had eaten at the restaurant.
"She called and asked how I got the name Talia. I told her I went to see the movie `The Godfather' and it was in the end credits," he said. "She said that was her daughter."
Soon, he got a call from actress Talia Shire, Coppola's sister, who sent a pink satin equestrian jacket with "Talia" sewn on the back to Guidone as a gift for his daughter.
"It's been a real adventure," Guidone said. "Thirty-six years is a long time."
Guidone plans to close the doors the weekend after Valentine's Day. Restaurateur Mike Simms and his partners, who co-own Simmzy's, Tin Roof Bistro and The Kettle, will take over the space and plan to open a new restaurant, Guidone said.
Frederick said Talia's is closing at the best time.
"It's good to end on top while people still have the same strong feelings about the place," she said.

As for the mileage, all items that store mileage readings are updated to meet the highest reading in the system. Your keys actually store the odometer reading too, if you give them to the counter at BMW they can read it off. A key may not be used for months, as soon as you put it in it takes the highest mileage reading. This is one of the problems of buying a new cluster if you are going to recode it. The mileage has to be less than your current one (or you have to have it programmed BEFORE you connect to the car).
If you plug it in and it updates the system with a higher mileage you then would need to get all the modules recoded.
In my experience, the car doesn't increment the mileage unless the VINs match. So unless you change the VIN without changing the mileage, there shouldn't be much issue.
Also for anyone intending to do the chip swap, make sure the clusters are the same software number.

Hampshire Hotel - The Manor Amsterdam
Linnaeusstraat 89, Amsterdam, North Holland
0.4 km from
No parking! You can pay 30 euros for leaving the car at the front door area but only place for about 10 cars! The room was ok but a little bit dirty! The breakfast buffet to expensive for what it offer! I purchased a king size bed but they give me single beds because they had no more rooms availabel! Very disapointing. I will not recomend this hotel even to my enemies!
staff were very friendly and the rooms modern and very clean. very good location to. no
The members of staff were very professional and receptive. Keep it up
Amsterdam center can be reached in 12 minutes by tram.
Very clean, hotel staff was very helpful and friendly, good value for the price, great location. Breakfast buffet was good. Bathroom was pretty small, elevator was suspect and the stairs were only for emergency use, no AC or fan, bed was only ok. Breakfast buffet was little over priced at 15 euros.
room parking is not for free
Almost everything. Breakfast was too expensive!
the space of the room and quite close to city center. the zoo is next to it and a few museums such as boat stops it was very dificult to get something from the bar. the barman was always out for something else.
We were living on the 8-th floor, so the view was realy amasing, especially at night :)
Hotel stuff very, very good. Location of hotel very good, near park, trasportation to city center excellent. Rooms very small, rooms were dusty, wifi in the lobby lasts only half hour than you must go to reception and ask for password and log again. Loss of time.
Room was warm,clean,comfortable. Hotel decor was modern and clean Certain Reception staff were less than helpful and totally inexperienced to deal with a possible emergency.
comfort, location near conference, breakfast, service, staff

Slaughter and May is considering whether to add US law capability to its Hong Kong base by hiring US-qualified lawyers as part of its regular strategy review.
A well placed source inside the firm said it was making enquiries around the possibility of adding US law capability in all the markets it operates in, including Hong Kong.
This comes as Davis Polk & Wardwell, a Slaughter and May best friend, develops local law capabilites in numerous jurisdictions, including London and Hong Kong. Earlier this year the firm launched its London practice with the hire of Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer corporate partner Simon Witty (6 January 2012) and tax partner Jonathan Cooklin (13 April 2012).
The Slaughter and May insider said: "The firm is considering all things, including possibly hiring US-qualified lawyers in Hong Kong and elsewhere. But no decision is made yet and we are still in the process of reviewing our strategy."
Another source added: "The strategic review is triggered by the significant changes in the market. In the past year, a number of US firms have moved on to take on Hong Kong law capabilities. They are looking at what they should be doing to provide better services to our clients in the changed environment."
Davis Polk & Wardwell is not alone in launching a local law practice in Hong Kong. Several US firms including Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett and Sullivan & Cromwell have all launched local law practices over the past year, after capturing senior-ranking partners from UK rivals (5 September 2011).
The Slaughter and May source said: "We keep the firm's strategy under rolling review and the question of US law capacity is just one of many market, legal and international opportunities and challenges which we consider from time to time."
In light of Freshfields' recent relaunch in Singapore (12 September 2012), Slaughter and May is also understood to be reviewing its strategy of whether or not to return to the increasingly important South East Asia hub.
"The firm has experienced a high level of business activity in Singapore and the South East Asia region. It's also becoming an important place for arbitration work. In addition, a growing number of multinational companies and regional financial services institutions are being services out of Singapore. We are open to the possibility of returning to Singapore, but it's not going to happen in the short-term," the source said.
"But the firm is committed to remain independent, and we will strive to strengthen our international network model and ensure it's well understood among our relationship firms and clients around the world."

A window into health in California.
« Full episode for
Jul 19-21, 2013
Sometime in the next few weeks, the largest solar power plant of its kind -- anywhere -- will open in California's Mojave Desert. Electricity from the Ivanpah solar project will find its way to people throughout the state, moving us closer to California's ambitious renewable energy goal. But the project was no slam-dunk. It was slowed down by controversy over an elusive herbivore. And as KQED science reporter Lauren Sommer explains, if this renewable energy revolution is to really happen, conservationists and solar companies need to agree on a way forward.

Strips of garden, victoriously planted amidst stony soil, displayed plots of vegetables enclosed by quickset hedges.
The quickset hedges on either side were only waist high and did not shelter him.
They illustrate the following sentence: 'The present hour I seem in a quickset hedge of embarrassments!
It was like falling from a quickset hedge on to a bundle of thorns.
If you lean on them they will let you fall, but one may rest against a Yorkshire breeze as one would on a quickset hedge.
That last jolt, that laid us against the quickset hedge, has done my business.
A glint of bayonets made a quickset hedge along the line of churned-up earth which had been the Germans' front—line trench.
Our gardens were at that time separated only by quickset hedges, so that it was easy to see into each others grounds.
As the English were the assailants, the precaution of posting the archers behind the quickset hedge would have proved unnecessary.
He was a short, thick man of enormous physical strength, and he sported a beard like a quickset hedge, hence his nickname.

Under the Federal Rules of Evidence, a defendantâs previous criminal acts can't be brought into evidence in a criminal trial with the end goal of demonstrating the litigant's tendency to carry out the crime they are currently being charged with. This information may be used for other purposes, but it is considered to be too biased and may divert the jury from the main question of what really happened during the incident in question.
If a criminal litigant has previously committed similar offenses, confirming this information at trial can almost guarantee a conviction. Therefore, a vigilant criminal defense attorney will find a way to have this information excluded from the trial if possible. This process includes:
Filing a motion with the court: The defense attorney should demand the prosecutors give notice of providing evidence of the litigantâs previous crimes and provide proof that demonstrates the litigant's inclination to carry out the charged crime. If the prosecutors cannot provide this evidence, then the criminal defense attorney should file a motion (formal request) with the court to exclude this evidence.
Argue inclination: The criminal defense attorney should argue that juries are prone to consider evidence of the litigant's earlier criminal acts as proof of their tendency to carry out the charged wrongdoing or proof of their bad character in general. Both of these considerations are legally inappropriate, but jurors have trouble making this distinction, especially if the previous crime was worse than the crime on trial.
Argue jury confusion and delay: The criminal defense attorney should argue that presenting the previous criminal act will embroil the court with a trial inside of a trial, resulting in confusion and delay. This credible argument is powerful especially if the previous crime did not bring about a conviction, but even if there was a conviction, the certified record of conviction usually does not demonstrate the facts that may demonstrate the previous act is admissible. The conviction may not exclude a finding on the facts, therefore, the prosecutor will need to call witnesses, and the litigant will be allowed to defend against the charges just like in other trails.

CV Half Shaft Replacement
A half shaft, also called an axle, transmits power from the transmission to propel the vahicle's wheels.
Each half shaft has two constant-velocity (CV) joints, which are packed with grease and encapsulated by a rubber cover known as a CV boot. If the CV boot becomes damaged, grease no longer lubricates the CV joints, allowing dirt and debris to enter the joint, causing wear. If this happens, the half shaft may also need to be replaced with a new or remanufactured half shaft.
If a clicking sound (that increases with the speed at which a vehicle takes a sharp turn) can be heard, this strongly suggests that a half shaft is worn and in need of replacement.
To replace the half shaft, the wheel is removed and the suspension is disassembled to the point where the half shaft can be withdrawn from the transmission and suspension. The new half shaft is installed, and the suspension reassembled.

All women in France to be addressed as mademoiselle
Married women will be addressed by their maiden names in official correspondence in France under a controversial raft of measures designed to encourage gender equality.
The move, included in a Bill that will also give women a say in picking the national football and rugby managers, is being hailed by supporters as an historic break with prejudice.
Critics described the legislation, adopted by the lower house of parliament this week, as a totalitarian intrusion into family life.
Feminists point out that French law has stipulated that "no citizen can carry a surname or a first name other than those expressed on their birth certificate" since the Revolution of 1789, but more than three-quarters of married women take the husband's name.

We've run Solution Design Workshops for companies all over the world:
If you've read even just the first few chapters of The Machine, then you know the book paints a seductive picture of a reengineered sales process.
- Fewer field salespeople (who each do four appointments a day, five days a week)
- A team-based approach to sales — which impacts massively on customer-service quality
- Management by numbers — instead of by intuition
In short a sales process that delivers more sales, more visibility and less total cost!
The challenge is that the end-state that Justin describes is a long way from the current-state, for most organizations. So far away, in fact, that many executives doubt it's even possible to make the transition.
The Ballistix Solution Design Workshop
A Ballistix Solution Design Workshop (SDW) is an intensive, two-day workshop facilitated by Justin Roff-Marsh — the world's thought-leader in Sales Process Engineering (SPE).
In two days, Justin will work with you and your management team to build a plan to reengineer your sales process, multiply your revenues, and accelerate the growth of your business based on the principles of Sales Process Engineering.
No distractions, no excuses.
Just two challenging days locked away in a
boardroom with the author of The Machine.
In just two short days Justin will accomplish what most consultants fail to deliver in months. Together with your management team, Justin will produce a plan to reengineer your sales process that is comprehensive, practical and downright ingenious.
This Solution Design Workshop is like no other. Justin is no junior consultant or ex-corporate business analyst big on theory but small on practical application. He's been working hands-on in organizations successfully applying SPE for more than 20 years. He'll bring this considerable experience to your organization to develop a comprehensive and practical blue print for sales-growth that covers everything from promotion and opportunity management to resourcing, key performance indicators and technology.
He'll then package these findings into a comprehensive document detailed enough to implement —with or without Ballistix's involvement.

The Official E46 Parts List: Maintenance Items
Disclaimer: everyone knows the Xi is an exception to every single rule so this thread does not cover the Xi and/or iT. Some parts will be the same but it is mainly for the early E46s, nonetheless I will add full 323/325/328/330 i/Ci/Cic support later. And make every part number clearer for some people. Use this list at your discretion, as always, I am not liable for mis-ordered parts.
Hey guys, Neil again :hi:
I see threads all the time asking for part numbers so I decided to compile a list of the most common maintenance items on E46s. I know this is a lost cause but you have to try anyway. With the exception of a few parts categories, I think this list is all encompassing. This list is all OEM parts, no aftermarket. So in places like what brake pads to use, I have only listed OEM pads. All of the part numbers root from my car, a 2000 328Ci. I have paid careful attention to where models matter and have indicated as such. If you know the part number is different for your car, tell me and I can add it in! Enjoy
Here is how the lists are sorted:
# in diagram | Part Name - Part Number, $Cost
If you see a diagram reference number of 0, it is because the part listed doesn't correlate to the diagram above it. The manual parts conversion part doesn't have diagram reference numbers right now. I will put them later.
Front End Suspension: Some of the common wear and tear items are Control Arm Bushings as everybody has experienced I'm sure. Also the ball joints on the stock Control Arms go bad frequently and because they are pressed in, you have to replace the entire arm. Some part numbers for wheel bearings (If you have a groaning noise coming from your wheel when driving). And if you hear clunking while going over bumps your strut tower mount could be bad. Swaybar endlinks are also common wear items if you are lowered on stock suspension components.
Rear End Suspension: Oh the dreaded CV joints, you will hear the squealing all the time while driving. Also some part numbers for common maintenance items like the rtabs and rear strut mounts which blow out all the time, guaranteed. Lift your trunk lining to check
Steering: Power Steering pumps are not so common failures on these cars but it does happen here and there. There are 2 kinds of pumps you can get, one is what we like to call 'over-boosted' and it makes the car feel artificial. If you have a loose feeling in the steering wheel, be sure to check your flexible steering coupling as it is a very common wear item. All of the hoses you need are included if you need to replace your ps pump
Brakes: I personally don't mind OE brake pads, they do dust a lot but I have no complaint about the bite :dunno:
Engine related parts/seals/gaskets: A bad rear main seal is very evident. You will have oil spewed all over the bottom of the transmission and if it is bad enough, it will make your clutch start to slip if you own a manual. Crank and Cam sensors are pretty common occurrences in e46s and the oil level sensor is also a known maintenance item. I've included the VCG as just a common replacement item
CCV Set: If you live in a cold climate these things blow all the time. You will notice your oil disappearing as it is being burned because of the failure of this vapor separator. All of the lines are included as you need to replace them as well, they become brittle and break as the result of oil and age.
Flywheel (Manual):
Engine oil related: The Oil Filter Housing Gasket is a very common seal you should check if your car is leaking oil heavily. Oil level sensor is listed here as well.
Belts/Pulleys Engine: A lot of people have problems with their mechanical belt tensioner failing and as a result they need to replace it obviously. But BMW stopped making the mechanical tensioner so here is the part number to buy the new hydraulic tensioner.
Cooling System Related: The Achilles' heel of the e46. The cooling system is the most common failure item on these cars from my experiences. BMW has always been weak at making good cooling systems but nonetheless, here are the parts you need to buy for a full overhaul.
Intake/Exhaust System: A low idle can come from a bad idle control valve or even the adjuster unit (DISA unit) in some cases. These are easy items to replace so the part numbers have been included for these. O2 sensors go bad all the time, especially the pre-cat ones. If you ever take off your exhaust, new gaskets should be ordered so here are the part numbers for those as well. Also, a lot of people don't know this but your exhaust hangers go bad all the time.
Engine Electrical System: Oh boi, ignition coils and spark plugs. These are self explanatory, if you car is misfiring and you think it's a coil or spark plug, order a new one.
Fuel Supply:
Common OEM E46 Part Numbers:
Exterior (Mtech II):
A lot of people experience what is called a "sticky 5th gear." If you decide to do the 5th/reverse fix, it's very wise to fix the shifter pins as well because the transmission is already out. There are 3 shifter pins plus the pins for 5th/reverse.
5th Gear Sticky Fix:
And to end, my Comprehensive Manual Conversion Parts List (Includes every tranny related part). This list contains most of the manual transmission wear items so I am including it. This is for my 328Ci so if you have a 323/325/330, some parts will have different parts number. This is pretty much the official 5 speed parts list. Prices are listed next to the parts, most of them are from Pelican parts or BavAuto. Some of the bigger parts you can get at BMA Parts or even the dealer, it's all the same. All of the prices are listed considering the quantity of the parts. So those are the prices for those listed numbers of parts.
Gearbox Support:
Linkage Parts:
Pedal Assembly:
Clutch Control:
Driveshaft Components:
Exhaust Suspension:
Gearbox Mounting:
Parts you might need if they don't already come with the transmission:
Well that is it for now guys, I know I still need to add some common interior wear items and I will eventually, but I'm tired of using etk right now, haha. As always, www.realOEM.com is my guide. But if you like my threads, rate them accordingly. Thank you!
-Special thanks to Matt for helping me compile a list
-The crush washer for the oil drain plug was added by bmwbun, great addition if you ask me :rolleyes:
yaaay i got 2nd and 3rd. lol
meh, kpeng has done better
j/k j/k good thread neil, thanks :hi:
good work! thanks neil
nice work :thumbup:
:repost: and :wrong:
JK, thanks to you and Matt for taking the time.
Sticky this! Thanks..Very informative!
good job man!
now back it up with images and diagrams :)
E46 for life!
Because you are first in my thread that makes you important or something? get outta here
Thanks for taking the time to do this. Hopefully people wont need to post what pn things are.
Thanks for the excellent work! I'm sure this will save many hours of searching and it will become a very useful and popular reference. IMHO, a sticky is well deserved for this.
I'm very interested in the sticky fifth fix, since my clutch will need replacing in a few months.
Two part numbers are listed for the locking pins. Are two of each needed for a total of four locking pins? Are sealing caps not required for 5th/reverse?
I seem to remember a DIY for this, but I can't find it at the moment.
5th Gear Sticky Fix:
* Reverse Gear/5th Gear Fix
o Repair kit (Qty. 2) - 23117542726
o Locking pins - 23317502165 / 23311224849

Bart Simpson: 'I Will Not Concede the Election Till Karl Rove Gives Me Permission'
By Noel Sheppard | November 11, 2012 11:44 PM EST
The Simpsons took a swipe at Karl Rove and the Fox News Channel Sunday.
As Fox's hit animated series began, lead character Bart was in his classroom writing repeatedly on the blackboard "I will not concede the election till Karl Rove gives me permission" (video follows with commentary):
As he's written this numerous times, the joke appears to be that Bart had conceded the election and was being punished by his teacher for doing so.
That said, this is the second time in as many weeks The Simpsons took on conservatives.
In last week's program, Bart's father Homer voted for Mitt Romney only to be outsourced to China.
Hard to believe this network has any connection whatsoever to Fox News.

(CNSNews.com) - "I am disappointed," said Senator Ben Nelson (D-Neb.) after the Senate voted 54-45 to table his amendment barring the use of taxpayer funds for any part of a health insurance plan that covers abortion.
"Our proposal to ensure that the Senate health care bill doesn't open the door to public funding of abortion was reasonable," Nelson said in a statement on his Web site. "It was rational because it followed established federal policy. And it was right because taxpayers shouldn't be required to pay for abortions."
Nelson said the vote to table his amendment "makes it harder" for him to support the overall Senate health care bill. But according to press reports, Nelson has backed away from his earlier threat to support a Republican filibuster of the bill.
CatholicVoteAction.org, a Catholic lobby group, praised Nelson's "valiant leadership" and said the vote to table the Nelson-Hatch amendment shows how hard it is to be a pro-life Democrat in the U.S. Senate.
"Nelson's fellow Democrats, including many Catholics, bowed to the pressure of the abortion lobby and approved this massive taxpayer handout to Planned Parenthood and the billion-dollar abortion industry," said Brian Burch, president of CatholicVoteAction.org.
"Catholic voters who may have disagreed on whether this legislation was a good idea to begin with have no choice but to collectively oppose this health care bill."
The vote to table the amendment will result in the largest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade, the group warned:
"Americans firmly believe that abortion is not healthcare," Burch said. "The United States Senate ignored the will of the people and instead forged ahead with a pro-abortion healthcare bill that will now face even weaker public support."
A conservative civil liberties group said the vote to table the Nelson-Hatch amendment "reflects a callous disregard for the protection of innocent human life."
"It is clear most Americans do not want abortion classified as a mandatory health care benefit," said Jay Sekulow, chief counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ).
"The House understood this in passing the Stupak-Pitts Amendment. Sadly, the Senate chose to ignore the concerns of the American people and refused to approve an amendment that would have put into place much-needed pro-life protections in the Senate's version of health care reform."
ACLJ is calling on pro-life Democrats – including Sen. Nelson – to follow through with their promise to reject a Senate health care bill that fails to exclude abortion funding.

By Kathy Chu, Calum MacLeod and Jon Swartz, USA TODAY
HONG KONG Less than a day after Google said it would no longer censor its search engine in China and began redirecting web surfers to its Hong Kong site, it said some searches were blocked.
"It seems that certain sensitive queries are being blocked, but the full site is currently not being blocked," Google spokeswoman Christine Chen said Tuesday.
The obstruction of searches on politics, porn and other topics — the apparent work of Chinese authorities — ratcheted up an already tense impasse between the world's most powerful Internet company and the government of the world's most populous nation.
'A NEW APPROACH': Statement from official Google blog
POLICY CHANGE: Google to stop censoring search results in China
The conflict underscores analysts' warnings that Google's gambit on Monday could damage the company's ability to maintain a foothold in this promising market.
The company said that, for the time being, it would keep offering services such as Google maps and music, as well as maintain research and development operations in China.
But Google's ability to offer such services may hinge on how successful the company is in mending its relationship with the Chinese government in upcoming days, experts say.
"This is an ongoing negotiation," said Mark Natkin, founder of Marbridge Consulting, a Beijing firm that advises Internet-technology companies. "What Google has tried to communicate is that 'we have a clear stance on censorship, but we are still committed to participating in the market.'"
The Chinese government's sharp rebuke of Google's actions signals the uphill battle the company faces in maintaining — and even expanding — some of its operations in China. The Chinese government called Google's move "totally wrong" and blasted the company for what it termed "unreasonable accusations and conducts," according to China's official Xinhua news agency.
Adding to Google's troubles, Chinese Internet and mobiles-services provider Tom Online, run by Li Ka-shing, one of Asia's wealthiest businessmen, said that it had stopped using Google's search services after an agreement with the company expired. "As a Chinese company, we adhere to rules and regulations in China where we operate our businesses," Tom Group said in a statement.
Natkin fears that other Chinese companies could follow suit: "There may be some sort of tacit pressure for (companies) not to cooperate with Google if the current relationship between Google and the authorities" doesn't improve, he says.
Ding Xipo, an independent Internet analyst in Beijing, says public reaction to Google's move — as well as the performance of the company's stock — could shape how hard the Internet giant works to keep its other business operations in China. Google's China business brings in only a sliver of its $24 billion in annual revenue, but analysts believe the market has ample room for growth.
Investors sold off Google shares Tuesday, possibly on concerns about the company's ability to continue operating in China. Google's stock slipped 2% in mid-day trading to $544.42.
Meanwhile, organizations such as Human Rights Watch are lauding Google's decision. HRW called the company's move a "strong step in favor of freedom of expression and information," and said other companies should follow its lead.
Chu reported from Hong Kong, MacLeod from Beijing, and Swartz from San Francisco

Note: I'd like to apologize to my readers. The last two weeks I've been ill with my 3rd cold of the season. On a more positive note, it's el Cinco de Mayo! I hope to visit with all of you at the Cinco de Mayo Fiesta to be held this year at Memorial Park on Sunday, May 6th. I'll be in the booth sponsored by the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals. We expect to have a drawing for a television and other neat stuff. You'll also get a chance to practice your golf swing at our booth for more chances to win that television. Finally, you'll be able to talk about real estate with real estate professionals who care about you. Yes, we'll even discuss credit issues and how much money you need to save to buy a home of your own. Please plan on coming by our booth. I look
forward to meeting you.
Q: I want to sell my home, "as is". Can I still get top dollar for my home?
A: No. Of course not. Real estate agents that advertise properties like yours use the terms: fixer-upper needs TLC, home to be sold "as is". These are red flags to all other real estate agents that these homes are in less than perfect physical condition. It also tells us that sellers of homes in this poor condition are less likely to want to fix something that needs fixing.... even if the buyer insists on getting it fixed. In your example, you have a drain pipe leaking in the crawl space. Most buyers' agents will recommend that their client obtain the services of a professional home inspector (by the way, we'll have a home inspector at our Cinco de May booth). The home inspector will tell the buyer that your home has a plumbing problem that needs the attention of a
plumbing contractor. The buyer of your home will ask (on a form prepared by his agent) that you fix the leaking drainpipe. Your options, as a home seller, are to tell the buyer to jump in the lake; you're not fixing a thing. Or, you can tell the buyer that you'll split the cost of fixing the drainpipe. Or, you can tell the buyer that you'll fix the plumbing problem and tack on the cost of the repairs to the sales price. Or, you can tell the buyer you'll fix the plumbing problem, at your sole cost, just to keep the deal alive and on track to close.
There is one other seller option. You can fix the things that need fixing before you place the property on the market. That's the option I recommend for all my seller clients.
Q: I'm buying a home that had an additional bathroom installed. My home inspector tells me the toilet was not installed properly. What can I do?
A: With all my sincere respect for home inspectors, I encourage you to get a professional plumber to look at the bathroom installation. The plumber will tell you if a problem really exists. If the plumber agrees with your home inspector, then get an estimate of the costs to replace or repair the bathroom problem.
Your Realtor will then be able to advise you if you should ask the seller to absorb part or all of the cost of the repairs. Use the plumbers WRITTEN estimate to determine the cost of the needed repairs.
Q: I'm under contract to buy a home. My home inspector says the furnace heat exchanger is cracked and that the furnace needs to be replaced. The seller had a furnace guy check the furnace and he says the heat exchanger is not cracked. Who do I believe?
A: The furnace guy. But be sure that the furnace contractor puts his opinion on the serviceability of the furnace in writing. If the furnace really does have a cracked or broken heat exchanger, you and your attorney may be able to file a claim against the furnace guy.
Another thing you could do is to ask a furnace guy of your choosing to examine the furnace and give you his opinion. I don't want to imply that professionals would color their opinion based on who's paying them, but I have come across situations where that's the implication. For example, I've had a perfectly reputable furnace contractor tell me the furnace in a home needs to be replaced at a cost approaching $3,000. I've had another furnace contractor look at the same furnace and tell me the furnace just needs a little cleaning and adjusting at a cost approaching $300.
The major messages here are: first, that you should use the home inspection as a starting point to determine if the home you want to buy is satisfactory to you. Second, that you (as a buyer or seller) should use the services of a specialist to determine if something really needs to be replaced or fixed.
Next week, just how fast have home values increased in Colorado Springs?

Kim Kardashian Talks Back
Apparently, nearly losing her toe has made Kim Kardashian re-think her strategy of losing other body parts.
Despite an earlier assertion that she was planning to shrink her booty through exercise, the upcoming Dancing With the Stars contestant assures In Touch that her derriere will remain the grand monument that everyone has come to know and love. (Some more than others.)
"I'm sure my butt is going to shrink, but there's so much of it, I'm not worried it's going to go away," Kardashian predicts.
Very true. In fact, Kim Kardashian's rear end has long been ignored as one of this country's most abundant natural resources.

Hi again eh,
> Curious, do you have inbound rules also
Not for the router to router tunnels but only because I control both
ends. If I didn't control one end then I would. Under the interface
the tunnel is connected to, block the ports you don't want coming
through and under source select network and type in the subnet of the
remote network. I haven't played with roaming users yet so I'm not
sure there.
> and can you ?
Assuming you mean for the tunnel itself, allowing ESP etc.. I think
that is done when configuring the tunnel in m0n0wall. The only time
you would open something for ESP etc.. is when you where passing the
tunnel through m0n0wall instead of using its server.
have fun,

Linda is my hero. I was trapped in a terrible situation with a difficult landlord who claimed I owed $30,000 for imaginary damages my children had inflicted on the kitchen of my rented condo apartment. Linda helped us all reach an amicable agreement and end the lease on good terms. I am eternally grateful for her tremendous skill, kindness and good sense.
Posted by Merwin
Linda was absolutely perfect for us with a tricky rent stabilization issue. She gave tirelessly of herself - time, effort and caring - and more than a keen intelligence to solve our rather difficult situation. I recommend her highly for her competence, solid workmanship and ethics. You could find none better then Linda.
Posted by Lorette
I had a particularly nasty, paranoid, doozy of a tenant back in the 2000s and another who was a good guy except that he fell on hard times and needed to go due to rent in arrears by months and months (and at below $500/mo, the cheapest of my little 6 unit brownstone). I was referred to Linda by RSA and she left no stone unturned, I learned things I didn't even know about e.g. that a vet has to be served eviction papers per special procedure (who knew?). The male tenant turned out not to be a vet, but Linda did a thorough search to verify before filing the wrong things and making extra work and $$$! Linda is honest, which I am a stickler about when it comes to business and life. Like me, she was never on a mission to cook books, stretch the truth or anything of the sort just to win a case. High integrity to the bone, cause I would never feel comfortable working with an unscrupulous individual, no matter what the setting. Not only is she a nice person who makes one feel at ease, but she knows the law and gives you personalized attention. I would be remiss if I did not spread the word that if you want an attorney to get the job done right without compromising ethics, call Linda.
Posted by Maybelle
I had a protracted battle with a large and nasty landlord. Linda fought for me like a real trooper, while at the same time never forgetting that this was a strange and frightening ordeal for me. She always kept me informed and assured me she would do her best to help me. Thanks to her compassion and communication, I never lost hope. In the end, she did indeed get what I wanted and resolved the situation completely to my satisfaction.
Posted by Kevin
I have worked with Linda over the past 3 years on various properties we manage handling numerous landlords and tenants cases. She has always been very responsive and knowledgable in every situation. As a property manager I would highly recommend her services.
Posted by Debbie
Linda did a wonderful job helping me negotiate a surrender of a lease for office space that I had to let go after down-sizing. She acted as a strong representative, but also managed to keep it amicable, which was very important to me as a business person.
Posted by Frank
I am an attorney in New York and hired Linda to represent my wife and I in a landlord tenant dispute of over ten years. Within a few short months the matter who resolved most favorably for us by LInda in an expeditious and highly professional manner. I can commend her to you without reservation
Posted by anonymous
I hired Linda Rzesniowiecki for a non-payment eviction of one of my tenants. She represented herself as expert in the housing court law and procedures. We went through every step of the process; the tenant ignored all the notices and I should have got a default judgement. She made a number of mistakes in the filings. Most significantly, she failed to put the court's address on the petition /notice of petition and therefore the case was dismissed and I had to start the case all over again, costing me about $10,000 in lost rent and more legal fees.I believe this was malpractice.
