Below is a photo of a plant grown here and possibly a hint or two as to what it is. If you can guess its name we will send you a Free BLOOMING SIZE ORCHID plant selected by us from our nursery. Shipping included!
It's that simple so give it a try. Our only rules are that we want the species name of the plant whenever possible. Common names alone won't work unless it is very specific and obvious (Example: You can't say "Ginger plant" when it's a "Tahitian Ginger" plant). If you really want to nail it you might put the full botanical name, "Alphinia purpurata var."Tahitian". But "Tahitian Ginger" would work for us.
The first person to submit the correct name will win and you can submit as often you wish.
Please don't submit more than 2 (two) guesses per day. If you submit more than that in one day we will only accept your first two. This is to make it a little more fair to everybody playing. Besides, there's always tomorrow.
As time goes on we may add a clue or two if nobody is getting close and a new plant will be posted as soon as the last one is identified. When you submit your answer we'll e-mail you back to let you know if you've won. If you're the lucky winner, we'll get your shipping info at that time so we can send you your free plant.
We can only ship the prize orchid to an address in the United States. (If you are a resident of Alaska you are welcome to play but if you win you need to pay that dreaded FEDEX surcharge in order to receive your prize.) Sorry but Maui residents, friends and family of Tropical Gardens employees are not eligible to play (Sorry, yeah, but that's not fair).
California residents may play our contest however due to changes in your states regulations we will not ship the prize orchid to California. You can have us ship it to any other state if you win though. Sorry
Please note: This contest is not for the purpose of collecting e-mail addresses for any reason, and submitting your guess will not mean you are going to get spammed or solicited in any way. Our only reason for the contest is "FUN" and of course, to get you to keep visiting our site. Also if you happen to be a winner and receive your free plant we hope you will be pleased enough with our product to order from us in the future.
So go ahead and give it your best guess.
The current mystery plant is....
How about a hint or two.
1.Yes, we will need a species name on this one...
2. Its just the beginning.

Rising Tides
The unforgettable sequel to Iron Lace.
Rising Tides
Nine people have gathered for the reading of Aurore Gerritsen's will. Some are family, others are strangers. But all will have their futures changed forever when a lifetime of secrets is finally revealed.
Aurore Gerritsen left clear instructions: Her will is to be read over a four-day period at her summer cottage on a small Louisiana island. Those who don't stay will forfeit their inheritance. With the vast fortune of Gulf Coast Shipiping at stake, no one will take that risk.
Suspicions rise as Aurore's lawyer dispenses small bequests, each designed to expose the matriarch's well-kept secrets. Family loyalties are jeopardized and shocking new alliances are formed.
But with a savage hurricane approaching, tensions reach a dangerous climax. And the very survival of Aurore's heirs is threatened.

Here's a little something to tide you over until Jay-Z decides to come correct. Then again, Roc-A-Fella Records could release Sean Carter Sings MC Hammer's Greatest Hits and watch it ship platinum. So, it really doesn't matter if Dynasty seems to be a rather half-hearted effort from the man who many consider to be the best rapper this side of Rakim. Although presented as a solo album, Dynasty showcases the Roc-A-Family, giving extensive mic time to Beanie Sigel and Memphis Bleek, who gets a whole track (the Ja Rule-esque "Holla") to himself. Amil, whose own solo album, All Money Is Legal failed to reveal her inner queen, turns up to rhyme the hook on the posse cut, "You, Me, Him & Her." Jay-Z keeps his flow fairly straightforward here, and the beats neatly reflect his icy, relatively soulless lyrics. But of course, as the man himself has said, you "can't knock the hustle." --Rebecca Levine

passme yes I've heard that too but I thought it would still be more of a trickle rather than occasional little gushes. It's almost impossible for me to get out of the house alone due to the SPD so am reluctant to schlep to hospital/mw unnecessarily. But will keep an eye on the quantity. I really do think it's just extra discharge at the moment. Doesn't seem to smell sweet. DP will be working from home tomorrow so that would be a better day for getting checked if necessary.
Good luck georgee sounds promising!
Good luck to you kali, hope it works nicely for your timetable. My pains are quite erratic (from every 10 mins to every 2, lasting about 30 secs) but MIL is here and I'm going to get DH to come home to take me to midwife because they're quite painful when they do happen. I wouldn't want to be driving and trying to breathe through them. He works an hour away and the hospital is 30 mins if we drive fast so we do need to be all geared up, just in case. Luckily he has an understanding boss if it's a false alarm!
I can completely see what people mean with the head blocking further gushes. The head does feel low today so we'll see what happens.
Must force myself to be a bit more active - it hurts when I am but I'm sure it will help get things going!
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
georgee good luck, sounds very promising! Specially with it being your second... Hope you don't have your baby at the surgery!!!
Just noticed after wearing it for hours that DD has stuck a whale sticker on me! Do you think she's trying to tell me something?
Lol, not unless she's calling you Shamu aswell
So I'm celebrating my EDD by having to collect DS early from the childminder's with potential conjunctivitis and take him to docs to be checked out. If it is, he won't be allowed to go tomorrow either. Argh! So much for my 3 days of rest. Good thing I'm not having my sweep today any more - it got postponed until Friday.
that's a bit rubbish dixie hope it's not conjunctivitis or it's the type that just comes with a cold and isn't catching.
Your sweep will probably be more useful on friday anyway... I think mine was basically pointless yesterday.
Good luck georgee if things are kicking off!
My midwife appointment was a complete waste of time. I was in tears by the time I'd walked from my mums car to the surgery (all of 20 steps) and she pretty much just said to man up labour will be a lot worse (in not so many words). I asked her to do a sweep or at least examine me and she said no because it's still 2 days before I'm due. Cue more tears . On the plus side baby seems to be nice and healthy and has been moving lots more today!
Hope your ds is feeling better soon dixie
That's rubbish mm, the least they can do is be a bit sympathetic! Would gp be better?
A few hours of Peppa Pig are in order for us methinks.
2 weeks minimum for an appointment with gp here
Will keep going with paracetamol. If all else fails I'll present myself at A&E...
Mm can you try to see a Physio? They can probably help if it's a spasming nerve or muscle or even spd. I would try a walk in centre or a&e if the pain is as bad as you say it is. You need to be rested for labour!!
My mw also wouldnt do a sweep until 41 weeks (he came at 39 though!!)
mm you can take paracetomol and codiene which you can buy over the counter. Just don't atke it more than 3 days at a time without medical advise. I was given it by the hospital in a much stronger dose than you can buy over the counter and it is fine for the baby and you in the short term, just not longer not because it does physical harm but because it is addictive!
I am really sorry you have a crap midwife and surgery. Why did they bother booking you in for you '40 week' appointment 2 days early if they can't do anything for you. How does she know how much pain you are in and if labour is worse than that? she isnt you and she should know that you what you need right now is to be calm and rexlaxed and get rest not tense and in pain unable to sleep.
Please consider seeing the hospital maternity/woman's physio or an ostepath or a good pregnancy massage person if you can't get any other help
Hi just bobbing on - thats really rubbish mm - im quite shocked at that attitude, and not v helpful.
Wow georgee think youre my sweep mate, came to see how things going but looks like theyre going! All the best!
I discussed the ins and outs of the sweep today (40+1) after this horrid puking bug all weekend expecting to be encuraged to be braver but the mw discouraged me as my tummy still sore, major bhs and only started weeing again this morning (since sat morn), and that had made me feel so much better. However been blown up like a balloon all day with bhs on top so either somthing starting again or uterus reclaiming lost fluids! She said (whennshe got a feel between bhs) he was 2/5 or even 1/5 she thought - does feel like theres scrabbling at the door! Offered a sweep tomorrow which i think ill try and take, eating almost normally today and tummy not so sore now.
I feel like a cat on hot bricks, cant settle
unless cringing at desperate hw of ny whilst bobbing on ball, which is getting fraught, need a better box set is that normal?!
Doc prescribed eye drops for DS, and 24 hours away from childminder. Argh. So now have him to entertain tomorrow with the added bonus of not being able to go to any playgroups/friends houses in case we pass it on. Just what I need at 40+1! Of course if I go into labour overnight, nana will just have to step in, perhaps tgat's my best strategy...?! Although new baby + toddler with eye infection prob not the best combo...
What an awful thing to say to you MM. Get some paracetamol and codeine and ignore the MW.
No word from jen ?
I'm going to keep up the paracetamol for 3 days and see if it builds up and makes a difference. I've never been overly impressed with that mw but she really upset me today. Granted I was being oversensitive. Slipping a leaflet into my notes about antenatal depression didn't impress me either. I'm not depressed, I'm just sore. And grumpy. And wanting my baby today!
One of the ladies from my antenatal group had her baby this morning. She was due the same day as me and has called her little girl after me! Okay, not AFTER me, but she's given her the same name as me .
Apparently the earliest they'll do a sweep is Monday. And I have to go to hospital for it. Ffs!!!
Just back from the labour ward after getting my swollen ankles looked at. Everything is fine and I'm 2cm with a favourable cervix. MW gave me a sweep as I missed my appt yesterday and she could feel baby's head which has got me really excited again. After almost 48 hrs of erratic contractions is good to know things are heading in the right direction!
MM I would echo those who've suggested A&E!
Hi all
Just to update you. Eira Isabella Anne born this moring at 06 25 weighing 8lb 12 oz. Pretty speedy birth. Very tired now and looking forward to a good nights sleep (ha).
Will post more a bit later but thanks for all you're support x
Congrats jen! Lovely name, my friend has a beautiful daughter called Eira. Can't wait to see a photo! Enjoy your sleep...
congratulations jen!!! lovely name x
Congratulations jen that's another off the list!
georgee is quiet this evening... Hmm
No signs here.. It is only my due date and I promised myself u wouldn't focus in it but its hard because most of the November ladies have graduated and I also really don't want a repeat of the last time!
mm I'm still shocked at the difference in care between here in Edinburgh and a short trip over the water.. Does your doctor not do phone appointments for urgent problems? Thinking of you!
It really is abysmal mrswee. Thank you for thinking of me! Annoying thing is edinburgh practices in sqf are actually closer to me than mine. Grr. Musn't grumble, up until now the nhs has never let me down and
bar this one particular midwife when you eventually do get an appointment or need treatment the care has always been first class. And for now at least it is free.
My due date's thursday. I imagine i'll be feeling the same as you. Everyone i know due on or around the same day as me has had their baby . The daily phonecalls and messages are becomming almost unbearable - at least mil took the hint and has stopped annoying me!
poor dh now gets it...
georgee is very very quiet...
Just think, you can't be as over due as I decided to be... lol! Silver linings
MM I am worried about your back. That amount of pain isn't normal. For it to not be getting better. Please go and see your GP! And take some analgesia!!!!!
Congratulations Jenbird! Hope you get that sleep... send some my way please!
Congratulations Jen I hope you and your baby get a good sleep.

But if the family is poor a laong or gold stud to be worn in the nose may be substituted for the nose-ring.
It has a nose-ring of brass wire, and similar adornments in the top of each ear.
Te-iki-pa displaced his nose-ring and inserted his pearl in the orifice previously occupied by that ornament.
Tookaram afterwards tried to remove the silver amulets, the ear-studs, and the nose-ring; but he failed in his attempt.
The premeditated human contrivance of the nose-ring was too cunning for impulsive brute force, and the creature flinched.
All night I slept perched on her nose-ring, which she always hung upon a hook when she went to bed.
The women also wore the nose-ring in a different way, and were clothed above as well as below the waist.
The nathni or nose-ring, which was formerly confined to high-caste women, represents the sun and moon.
And at any rate the nose-ring and small earrings in the upper ear should be of gold if worn at all.
And I'll bet the cannibal women are saying that we dance too close, and that it was immodest of me to come without my nose-ring.

Past Reviews
Regional Reviews: Seattle
Ham and Fruitcake Among This Year's
Also see David's review of Cinderella
Lisa Koch and her director-choreographer brother David wrote the evening's five sketches, all amusing and timed to not wear out their welcome, while interspersed with vapid video clips that are so bad they are hilarious to behold. In act one, an-all polka group, naturally called "The Polka Dots," courts disaster by performing for a holiday party full of morticians, and sing a medley of songs celebrating the funeral industry. This amusing if rather mild kick-off leads into a goofy game-show spoof called "Who's Your Deity?" with two amiable audience members designated contestants to guess whether "celebs" Harvey Fierstein (Gommels), Kirstie Alley (Platt) and Albus Dumbledore (Oaks) are giving true or false answers to religious-themed questions, as hosted by Koch's side-splitting old-school nun character sister Mary Labia. The act climaxes with a performance of the newly regrouped Sequim gay chorus, now known as S.Q.U.E.E.L., and, as ever, a knowing-wink at such larger groups as Seattle's own Men's Chorus. The parody lyrics by the Koch siblings are golden as ever here.
Act two seems like it could hardly get funnier as Michelle Bachmann is put in her place with "Bachmann Christmas Overdrive," totally stolen by Michael Oaks whose infirm, incontinent Nancy Regan is as politically incorrect as it is hellaciously hilarious. But then, the troupe serves up its heartiest hilarity of all as Platt and Koch's enduring comic alters Mama Euomi and daughter Whynotta Spudd go at it, this time as Mama takes command of their latest charity fundraiser movie spoof "Double-Wide Indemnity," which savages all things film noir and/or Hitchcock. Platt's Mama is a sight to behold done up to look like a cross between Lana Turner and Divine, Koch is a riotous gimp of a cockney maid who keeps forgetting to limp, Gommels gets guffaws as Cary Grant, and Oaks again shows his comic mettle as a fey entertainer enlisted to play the Fred MacMurray prototype insurance investigator. Now understand, the Christmas content in this broadly delightful show is minimal, but the laughs are plentiful. In short, Ham for the HolidaysA Lard Day's Night is just the slice of holiday hokum!
Ham for the HolidaysA Lard Day's Night runs through December 24, 2011 at Theatre-Off Jackson, 409 7. Ave S at Jackson in the International district. For show times and tickets go to www.brownpapertickets.com or call 800-838-3006.
Fruitcake Blues had a one weekend only run at Redmond's cozy Second Story Rep theatre, and was a co-production by SSR and the Pacific NW Cabaret Association, starring four names synonymous with the local cabaret sceneArnaldo-Drag Chanteuse! (and his non-drag self as well), Judy Ann Moulton, Joanne Klein, and singer/songwriter/pianist Victor Januszin a director-less evening of holiday-themed material, which would have benefitted greatly by a director and a continuity/theme writer to help the foursome make the show a more cohesive, flowing experience rather than the pleasant grab bag of bits it turned out to be.
Arnaldo, even minus the exclamation point, has the poise, presence and voice that has won him a name in the cabaret world well beyond Seattle. All of his material, including a saucy "Santa Baby," "That's What I Want for Christmas," "I Don't Remember Christmas" and "The 12 Days After Christmas," was top drawer stuff, and he handled it effortlessly. All that lacked in this show was a piece of material he has not all ready wowed with us with in past solo shows. The jubilant Ms. Moulton offered a warmly felt and soothingly sung pair of songs dedicated to her own cabaret idol, Ann Hampton Callaway, "This Christmas and "God Bless My Family," then tickled the crowd imitating a toddler singing "Freddie, The Little Fir Tree," written by her aunt and long-ago recorded by singing cowboy Gene Autry. It would have seemed natural that Moulton should sing a solo of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," given her own acclaimed tribute show "Judy Sings Judy" is a tribute to that great star, but instead it was less effectively used as a group number. Something a writer/director would have rectified.
Ms. Klein brought her Jewish heritage (and some altered lyrics) to the "Charlie Brown Christmas" carol "Christmas Time is Here" and romped with Janusz through his saucy song "Bahamas," celebrating holiday times in warmer climes, but her "Sabbath Prayer" with Moulton seemed out of place and some piano pedal difficulties impeded an otherwise admirable "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?" If only someone would have suggested this Northwest version of Elaine Stritch take on Jason Robert Brown's "Surabaya Santa" she'd have had her own showstopper. Janusz doffed his hat musically to the late Karen Carpenter with a dreamy "Merry Christmas, Darling" and shone on his own sardonically flavored song "I Forget, I Forget ..." while serving the other three vocalists well on the keyboard. The foursome was rather forced on the title song, but made playful fun together on a parody "White Christmas." The end result was an evening of good will and good cheer that felt like a fruitcake with some essential ingredients left out of the mix.
Second Story Repertory is going strong with a much buzzed about Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat through December 22, 2011 at Redmond Town Center. For more information, visit www.secondstoryrep.org.- David Edward Hughes

District 5 - Coal Mine Safety and Health
A Near Miss
On Wednesday, March 13, 2002, at approximately 1:30 p.m., a surface highwall drill operator with at least 17 years mining experience was injured when a portion of the highwall collapsed. Material that fell from the highwall resulted in minor chest injuries to the drill operator. Examinations revealed that an undetected mud seam caused the collapse of the 40 foot highwall.
Best Practices
- Evaluate highwall conditions closely during seasonal changes.
- Focus on visual checks.

How-To Clean Your Slow Cooker
Photo Cred: Flickr/Janine
If you're anything like me, you LOVE a good crock pot dinner. There is nothing better than throwing some food in the slow cooker, going to work and coming home to dinner---ready to serve.
Whenever I use the dang thing, I always find this weird brown stain from the gravy or juices that spilled and I am always too nervous to soak it in the sink (because it has a plug...and well...duh).
What you need in 1 spray can of Rinso Oven & Grill cleaner (orange scent is my favorite). Here is what you do:
- Spray an even coat of the foam inside the slow cooker (and outside if you're feeling frisky).
- Let the foam sit for a couple hours
- Re-visit, scrub away and viola!
Happy cooking!

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, fresh off his recall election victory and a whirlwind trip to Washington, called on President Obama Saturday to get government off the back of the private sector.
Using language similar to Obama's -- governing for the next generation, rather than instant political gratification -- Walker said Washington must reduce government dependence and allow the private sector to fix the economy.
"More big government is not the answer, as the president contends," Walker said in the Republicans' weekly address. "Instead, we need to confront the powerful special interests in Washington and put the hard-working taxpayers back in charge of our government. We need to think more about the next generation than we do about the next election."
Walker has become an instant folk hero among Republicans and conservatives after beating back a challenge from labor unions to keep his job in last week's recall election. Now he's using his fame to make a splash on the national scene.
Here's Gov. Walker's full address:
Hi. I'm Scott Walker from Wisconsin.
Last fall, my wife Tonette and I had a chance to visit Independence Hall. It was quite an experience. You see, as a kid, I loved history and thought of our Founders as being, well, bigger than life ... almost like super heroes ... so looking at the desks and the chairs where they sat was really pretty amazing.
Standing there it dawned on me that those who had assembled in these chambers were ordinary citizens who did something quite extraordinary. They didn't just risk their political careers or their business ventures; they risked their lives for the freedoms we hold dear today.
It reminded me that what has made America great, what has made us exceptional for more than two centuries, what has made the United States arguably the greatest country in the history of the world, is that in moments of crisis -- be they economic or fiscal, be they military or spiritual -- there have been men and women of courage who thought more about the future of their children and grandchildren than they thought about their own political destiny. We need leaders like that today.
Sadly, the president and many of his allies seem to measure success by how many people are dependent on government programs. Those policies have failed. In contrast, I and many other Republicans define success in just the opposite way -- by how many people we can free from government dependence by growing the private sector.
Now, that doesn't mean we want to throw folks off of unemployment. Instead, we want people no longer dependent on government because they have a job. When more of our fellow citizens have work in the private sector, there will be more freedom and more prosperity in our country. That's a good thing ... a very good thing.
In Wisconsin, we faced one of the biggest budget deficits ever when I first took office last year. During the three years prior to my tenure, my state lost more than 100,000 jobs, and the unemployment rate was above 9 percent.
Today, Wisconsin has a budget surplus. For the first time in history, we're able to put money into our state's rainy-day fund for two years in a row. Since taking office, Wisconsin has gained more than 41,000 private sector jobs and the unemployment rate -- well, it's below 7 percent for the first time since 2008. My state used to be ranked in the bottom ten of the best and worst states to do business in. Now, we're in the top 20 ... and climbing.
In Wisconsin, we made the tough decisions to tackle our economic and fiscal crises. Now it is time to do the same for America.
We can do it. We can do it -- because we've done it before.
Thirty years ago, the national unemployment rate was 10.8 percent, but once President Ronald Reagan's reforms went into effect, we saw one of the greatest economic booms in U.S. history.
We need that kind of bold leadership again today to get our fiscal house on track and to get our economy back in order. But more big government is not the answer as the president contends.
Instead, we need to confront the powerful special interests in Washington and put the hard-working taxpayers back in charge of our government. We need to think more about the next generation than we do about the next election.
That kind of courage may be rare in politics, but I see it every day in the moms and dads I meet at factories and farms and small businesses all across my state. These moms and dads work hard for a living for more than just a paycheck. They work hard for the same reason my wife, Tonette, and I do: we want our kids to have a better life.
Isn't that what this is all about? I don't know about you, but I want my two sons, Matt and Alex, to inherit an America at least -- at least -- as great as the America I grew up in.
The good news is that we can still do something about it. We'll have to make some tough choices -- but there is no doubt that it is worth it. Let this be the moment in history where we can tell our children and our grandchildren that we helped restore our country's greatness again. I believe we can, because I believe in America.

7 Series - E65 / E66 (2002 - 2008)
Discussion of BMW's 4th generation E65/E66 7 Series flagship. The E65 generated much controversy, due to its radical styling and iDrive user difficulties. Nonetheless, the E65 broke records to become the best-selling 7-series iteration ever, especially after its 2005 facelift.

Put an M5 diff in my 760Li, could use some ideas...
The good news: I managed to fit a 3.62 E60 M5 diff into my 760Li. Got it from troyjeup. He mentioned doing it to his 745 on this forum years ago, but never followed up. I thought about using an Alpina diff, which is also 3.62, but it's just an open diff. I wanted LSD. Well, now I have it.
DO NOT DO THIS UPGRADE until I figure out what is going on. Right now, it's only an upgrade to LSD. It should be quicker, but it's not...yet.
It's a 3.62, compared to my 3.15 in the V12 car. But.... the TCU is a bit confused and won't shift quickly at redline. It revs to 6500 and hangs there for like, half a second and then shifts. Even Manual mode, Sport mode, you name it. Before mods, my car benchmarked using a Gtech Pro SS like this:
0-60 5.5 seconds
1/4 mile 13.5 seconds at 106 mph.
Now, because of the slower shifting, it's 2/10s slower 0-60 and the 1/4 mile. It should be a good bit quicker. Wheel spin is not the issue, I managed to get wheel spin even more under control than when I first benchmarked the car. In any case, I cannot beat my original times.
I am working with oetuning.com and whatever I can drum up to try to figure out a solution. Jeremy there has been very helpful and I would not hesitate to pay him to work on the car, if it comes to that.
I did a transmission adaptive learn reset in INPA--a few times. Even turned the car off and left it for an hour (Jeremy suggested at least 5 minutes) to ensure the car went to sleep and fully initialized the trans learning mode. Once it wakes up and goes through 10 miles or so, of really bumpy shifts, it re-learns and smooths out pretty well. But the car is measurably slower.
here's the logic I am pursuing to try to solve this: Use what BMW already has that works in a 7-series with an auto tranny, something that knows about the 3.62 differential. An Alpina B7 does.... so it's TCU and other trans-related parts must know what to do with the 3.62 M5 diff.
Here's what I am thinking: Hardware--- the TCU is probably different on the B7 (although I cannot confirm this using realoem). Where in realoem is the TCU?
Where can I get an Alpina B7 TCU profile (I am asking cn555ic the coderguy on the B3 forum). Can I just overlay that into my own TCU?
Here's what I CAN confirm with realoem, regarding the trans-related stuff and a B7, vs a E66 760Li
Trans cases are same family, 760 is: GA6HP26Z B7 is GA6HP26Z - UA.
But, they are different part numbers (But could be because they come
with a different Mechatronics internal part)
Where can I get the real B7 trans gear ratios, so I can compare?
Mechatronics pack is different part number (but might be
compatible with either transmission)
cross reference for Mechatronics is only for B7
torque converters are the same
Last edited by mws; 02-14-2014 at 03:55 PM.
a quick google for E65 B7 Gear Ratio got me these numbers:
gear ratios 4.17:1, 2.34:1, 1.52:1, 1.14:1, 0.87:1, 0.69:1

Yeah, thanks. I have actually seen that. I'm just not sure where they got their info, or how reliable it is. The actual specs came from "Richard Owen", who, if you click the link, it is a 404 file not found. I'd love to see this from a more reliable site, but I doubt BMW had a trans made with different ratios.

Good point, I am asking them in a separate and specific thread. I would not expect them to read this thread.
The B7 uses the same transmission as the 760; a GA6HP26Z.
Sent from BimmerApp mobile app
same family, yes, but re-read this part, they are not the same part number.
Trans cases are same family, 760 is: GA6HP26Z B7 is GA6HP26Z - UA.
But, they are different part numbers (But could be because they come

you're probably right about the gear ratios Super Snoop. But, different part numbers for the trans. I imagine they are the same ratios as well. But I'd like to know for sure.
as I also stated, the mechatronic is a different part number as well. Could be different valving and pressure for shifts.
Finally got the used GTech Pro SS I bought to work with the PASS software. The graphing is very interesting. Also, the original 0-60 times the GTech told me for before and after are much better. It's a bit weird. You can see different values depending upon where you look on that thing.
I'll take what's in the graph.
0-60 of 5.073 with stock diff and 5.180 with M5 diff. But the M5 diff has a better 60' time.
Here's the main window of a 1/4 mile run, with the 760Li 3.15 diff (black line) and the M5 diff (red line). It shows that the M5 diff is faster at first, but the delay in shifting and the slow shifts overall, slow it's run down. What you SHOULD see is the red line pulling to the left on the graph, more and more, but the opposite occurs, since the ECU and/or TCU is freaking out.
Here's the first shift from first to second. You can clearly see the M5 diff is pulling ahead, and then, falls way back during the slower shift. Look at how the red line is actually ahead, then starts to slow and lag well before the shift. You can feel this.
The next shift from second to third. Since the M5 diff shifts at about 63mph the car is slowing down around 60 mph and thinking about the upcoming shift and then executing it slowly, making things worse for the 0-60 time.
Next shift from Third to fourth. According to my spreadsheets, the 760Li diff will not even shift until after 106 mph, so it does not get slowed down at all in a 1/4 mile run of 106 mph, but the laggy, slow shift of the car with the M5 diff at 97 mph, kills the run.
when I knew something was up with the ECU was: the first time I
drove it. I did not reset anything. I just went for a drive. The car
bumped pretty hard into each gear. The adaptive learn that the tranny
does was having to re-learn the new diff. I even got on the highway in
Sport mode and drove it up to 70mph and then got off the gas. The
trans BANGED into another gear and fricking chirped the tires!! in
like 4th gear. After a day it got way more smooth. No more banging and
chirping, but I could tell the trans was shifting slower, and I
measured it with the GTech and compared it to my stock runs.
So, I got out INPA and re-set the Auto tranny adaptive learn and it
did all that same crap all over again, and chirped on the highway, and
everything. I tried to measure it during the learn cycle and fricking
got "Transmission Fail Safe mode" on my dash and was driving around in
Second constantly, until I turned the car off and back on. Drove it
awhile, again, it got smoother, then slower shifting. So I reset it
AGAIN, same thing.

Thinking the same exact thing. buuuuttt.. Jeremy at oetuning warned me he has seen situations on German OBD2 auto tranny cars where the physical valving in the trans is not the same as well. That is why I am concerned about the mechatronic part number for an Alpina being a different part number than a 760, and the fact that Alpina part number is shared with no other car.
But... if it's only software, I agree with your assessment. I am working with someone offline to try to get the TCU bin for an Alpina. It's just a 7, with an AT, and a 3.62 diff, so it's as close as I can get to having compatibility. If anyone knows where I can get this, it sure would help. Might be in the Progman data files. I just am not sure how to read the header to see "Alpina" in them. I only see "E65", things like that.
I did try this with DSC off and got such immense wheelspin I turned DSC back on. I might just try a more leisurely launch with DSC off and see if I can get different results at the shift-points.
Have you tried putting it in manual shift so you can control the shift points and see if it responds as you would expect? Maybe ctsc can give you details on the mechatronics differences for Alpina as they sell all of those parts.
yeah, i tried manual mode. i mentioned it in the first few sentences. i know, theres a lot of info. i find manual mode is a joke. more like a mild suggestion to the transmission. it still does what it wants half the time. the shifts were very laggy.
i dont know what CTSC is. but thanks for the suggestion, ill try to look them up and check with them.
is this what you are talking about?

The only differences in the transmission would be to handle the additional power in the B7. Have you figured out where to code the rear end gear ratio?
Sent from BimmerApp mobile app
>Have you figured out where to code the rear end gear ratio?
nope, not yet. I have the progman data files, and I've looked at a bunch of them (never used them and no expert at progman), but can't figure out where in the header it might say "Alpina B7". I am trying to get with someone to help me figure this out, later this week.
just as a point of reference.
diffsonline has nothing for me, even regarding Alpina info.
Dinan, (I live down the highway from them) nothing on the E65 Alpinas. Only the most recent ones.
BTW: Jeff at Dinan was not surprised about this issue. Said they had to do a lot of programming and tuning to get the E46 M3 SMG to take a 4.10 diff.
Update to this question:
Where can I get an Alpina B7 TCU profile (I am asking cn555ic the coderguy on the B3 forum). Can I just overlay that into my own TCU?
Anthony Faison found the profile in all the Progman data. He corrected me as well. TCU (the transmission controller) is called EGS on our cars.
He tried it on his 7 and it temporarily bricked his car until he flashed it back. He thinks anyone previous to 2006 would need a later EGS module. Probably the Alpina one.
I have CTSC looking into the EGS compatibility thing. Pinged them after several days and they are still looking into it.

Did you ever get anymore info on this? my freind totaled his b7 and i just got a 06 760li and was thing of taking his diff before it got hauled away along with his tcu/egs
Yes, I have figured it all out, but this is all un-tested theory. Do all this hot-rodding at your own risk.
Bottom line, you need an 06 or later car, for the Alpina transmission (EGS) programming to work. The reason why: the EGS's .ODA file image is almost twice as big in bytes, starting in like mid 05 or so. You cannot flash the newer Alpina.ODA file onto an older EGS, because the bytes won't fit. Plus, it's all encoded, you'll never figure out where the final drive ratio value is--so you won't be editing it, and I have found NO one in the world who can or wants to program an EGS. I even begged OETuning.com, Jeremy, to do it and he said no. Has no experience diving in that deep. Dinan? I live in their town. They can do it. They won't touch it.
Also, I found out you can't simply"get" an EGS. It's built into the transmission. You have two choices:
1] get his Alpina transmission and use it (it has the EGS already in it), plus, of course, get his diff. You don't need his driveshaft, it's too short.
2] all the downloads of the BMW flash files have the Alpina .ODA in them, I could point you in the right direction, You could try to flash your own EGS in your transmission. It will likely work. The Z4 guys and others, do it all the time. But to make sure, just get his trans as well.
Update on my 2003 760Li with the M5 diff: it still downshifts a bit bumpy sometimes because the EGS is fighting the final drive ratio value, and it's slow to shift at redline at WOT, still. I got my ECU upgraded by OETuning and since the throttle sensitivity has been made more aggressive and the car is a bit faster, it's all even WORSE now. I re-set the trans adaptive learn mode and MAN oh MAN, it's been rough. Used to take me 15-20 miles for it to settle in. Now, 200 miles later, it's barely settling in. I tried to rush it one day and I went into failsafe mode. It's really important to get that final drive ratio value correct. I believe with the proper final drive ratio in the EGS none of this bumpy shifting would happen and shifts would be quicker at WOT. Very strange, my car shifts lightning quick at 6500 RPM at like 95% throttle, but super slow at WOT at 6500 RPM.
I plan to do some G-Tech 0-60 times and compare
1] stock
2] the M5 diff with stock ECU
3] and now, M5 diff with modded ECU.
I expect this: even quicker speed in each gear, but shifts are still too long, compared to stock. I will likely put the old diff back on, and then my car will be a stock drive ratio 760 with a modded ECU and should be pretty quick.
Food for thought: I have figured out some configurations which might work nice for an Alpina or M5 diff on another car. Your 2006-and-later 760Li is one. I am envious you get to try it. LMK how it goes.
The other would be a 645 or 650 with a 6-speed manual. It should not care about the final drive ratio value and you should be able to shift when and how you want. Plus, the V-8 6-speeds have a 2.93 final drive, not a 3.62. What a hoot!!!
Avoid an SMG, what a nightmare. Unless you know for a fact it's transmission programming lacks a final drive ratio value.
Only do an Automatic 6-series if you have a 650, not a 645, for the same EGS image/byte-size reasons I cite above. Then supercharge the 645 or 650 and you have basically the power of a N73 V12 in a 6-series, with the final drive of an M5. So, more torque than an M5, and the car weighs 800 lbs less than a 760Li.
It would also be fun to build an Alpina B7Li. Swap engine, trans, diff, etc. into your 750Li, and fly around in luxury. Why not?
Nice. I want to see if i can just swap the mechatronics because my tranny is about 8 months old and his is much older. maybe even buy a b7 mechatronic from CTSC and install it in my 760 since it has the same tranny. Is there any advantage of the m5 diff over the b7 diff or are they pretty much the same thing ?
Talk to Claus at CTSC and make sure that mechatronics swap includes the EGS and solves the issue. He should be fairly familiar with what I was talking about, since I emailed him over and over and he responded pretty nicely. He will tell you it will all blow up, but that's kinda his job. Don't worry about that part.
The M5 diff is a WHOLE nuther beast compared to the Alpina B7 diff. The B7 is an open diff like ours and totally plug and play. But you get the lame single tire-of-fire launches with DSC and DTC kicking in. The M6 is limited slip and required shortening my driveshaft by 6/10ths of an inch exactly (easy to cut and re-weld at a powertrain shop) . Plus, with an M5 diff you can NOT use our half-shafts, so I simply used M5 half shafts, which were 9mm shorter under full compression, but.. I tested the swing both up and down and there was no binding or disengagement in the M5 half shafts, so I am driving around with them in my car, thousands of miles later. The splines fit our hubs.
I had to shave off most of the aluminum side-cooling-fins on the M5 diff with a sawzall to get it to fit. Hits the cradle on the passenger side and the exhaust on the driver's side. I have a ton of pics. Just did not want anyone to try it until I figured out the final drive ratio problem. You might be the guinea pig.
You get all that M5--M6 stuff from Troy Jeup online.
do us a favor, please get a Gtech or something and do some baseline runs. Also, get with me if you want some tips on how to launch your car. It's not that easy and most of the time wants to start in 2nd gear.
The M5 diff is to big for my belt. I will stick with the b7 diff and I will find something to do a baseline run. I found that my car only starts in first in sport/ manual (duh) or if its not warmed up. I probably wont get to this for another 1 to 2 months but its going to happen as soon as I fix my Logic 7 and broken sway bar link Thanks for all the info you provided. I will definitely update with my progress as it progresses.
Maybe I should buy a M5
naw, M5 is too small. why not have a V12 luxo-boat that performs almost as well as an Alpina? Then buy the M6 later and you have V10 2-door coupe for weekend driving. That's my plan, at least...
Ill just wait for those twin turbo 760's to come down in price there at 45,000$ right now. Add the b7 diff to that and well be good to go if its a swap that can be accomplished like the e66. but im too poor for that right now ill mod the e66 then the f02. the dreaded bearing issues the e60 m5's / m6's have is a major down side
Anyway luxo barge / M7 it is

Guide to Searching the Smithsonian Institution Research Information System (SIRIS)
The Smithsonian Institution Research Information System (SIRIS) is an interactive web-based system that provides access to research resources held by various archives, libraries, and research units throughout the Smithsonian. It applies nationally established data standards to describe and manage catalog entries related to garden images maintained by the Archives of American Gardens (AAG).
Each AAG catalog record in SIRIS includes information relating to a specific garden image; a digitally scanned version of the image may also be connected to the catalog record. Because of a current backlog of images needing to be cataloged and scanned, there may be a time lag of some months between when garden images are submitted to AAG and when they appear in SIRIS.
Searching SIRIS
Because AAG is one of several contributors to the SIRIS Archives and Manuscripts Catalog, data searches can either be Smithsonian-wide or AAG-wide. In other words, a data search can either browse all SIRIS catalog records generated to date, or just those catalog records created by AAG. You have the ability to customize your search in any number of ways. The SIRIS web address is http://www.siris.si.edu/
At the opening screen, click on the heading "Archival, Manuscript and Photographic Collections." You are now in the main search screen which has six search options to choose from:
I. Keyword
Enter a term in the "General Keyword" box or in one of the more specific search categories. Click on red arrow. You will get a screen of Search Results with the total number of hits. At the right of the screen, click on "Sort By" to sort hits or "Limit By" to limit to a single SI repository, such as AAG. Press red arrow to refine your initial search. This type of search results in individual catalog records accompanied by a corresponding thumbnail image (if available.) These individual entries can be opened up for additional data.
To advance from one Search Results screen to the next, click on "Next" at the top or bottom of the page.
II. Browse
Enter a term in one of the appropriate search categories. Click on red arrow. This type of search results in an alphabetical list of Smithsonian-wide headings currently in use with the number of hits in the right hand column that can be clicked on to reveal item level catalog records. Sort or limit item level records as with "Keyword" searches.
III. Combined
This search enables you to enter multiple terms to refine your search results (ex. rock gardens and urns). Highlight the appropriate search fields by clicking on the drop-down boxes, enter the terms, and highlight "And," "Or," or "Not" to define the search perimeters. Click red arrow to get a Search Results screen.
IV. Browse Images
This option has a series of pre-defined searches (for quick demonstration purposes). Click on the box labeled "Archives of American Gardens." You can now do searches according to geographic location or limited subject headings.
V. Search History
This option allows you to edit and reuse past searches. Repeat a particular search by clicking on it or edit it by clicking on the edit link in the right hand column.
VI. Switch Catalog
Click here if you wish to return to the main SIRIS page to choose another Smithsonian catalog to search.
Create or e-mail a list of catalog records
The "Keyword," "Browse," "Combined," and Search History" search screens feature an option called "My List" which allows you to create and/or e-mail a list of items you 'select' from the catalog. At the bottom of the Search Results page, see the fields labeled "Add/Remove MyList" and "Email Items." Underneath the thumbnail image of the record you wish to select, click on the beige box labeled "Add to my list." Or, at the bottom of the page, type in the number(s) of the catalog entry(s).
To call up the list of records you have selected, click on "My List" at the top of the Search Results page. To remove a record you have already chosen, click on the box labeled "Remove" underneath the corresponding thumbnail image or, in the "My List" screen, click in the box at the left of the entry and then click on the box labeled "Remove" at the top or bottom of the screen.
Types of Search Criteria
The following types of search criteria are available to help identify catalog records that may be relevant to your inquiry. Try using different keyword or browse searches for the same inquiry-- you may get different results or results that lead you to connections you may not have been aware of initially.
General Keyword
This broad search option looks at all entries in all data fields. It does not distinguish between names, subject headings, locations, etc.
Creator or All Names
Use this search when looking for a property owner, landscape designer, architect, engineer, sculptor, photographer, etc.
Use this search to locate subjects such as specific garden features like arbors or fountains, plants such as iris or boxwood, or garden furnishings such as benches or urns. Subject Browses can also locate a geographic location. A search can be conducted on state, city, or both.
Use this search to find a garden name (ex. Mount Vernon) or a garden that bears the name of its owner (ex. Thompson Garden).
Some gardens have not been titled so they are listed as "Untitled Garden." When searching for an "Untitled Garden," it is best to use an All Names search for someone who may have been involved in the evolution of the garden. Also, a Subject search for the geographic location of the "Untitled Garden" will help to narrow results.
Form + Genre
This search locates the type of format a record is in such as a slide, drawing, painting, etc. Since much of AAG consists of slide images, this field is usually too broad to search on.
Summary and Notes
This Keyword option searches the narrative description of a garden which may include features and names. Please note that not every catalog entry includes a Summary Note.
Call Numbers Browse
Use this option if you know the call number or AAG garden number of the catalog record.

Qubool Hai, Zoya's attempt to get Tanveer's real personality in front of all the residents has repeatedly failed. She got some solid evidence the last time when she found Tanveer's burn patches on her dressing table.
But the mistake Zoya made was, under-estimating Tanveer. By the time she bought this issue in front of the family, she has actually managed to get herself burnt for real. Again Zoya got embarrassed. Asad again is angry with her. And this time Dilshad too is upset with her behaviour.
Zoya is left standing alone, when she actually is the honest person. The person who seemed to support her was only Rishad. Rishad, who was not present during any of these instances, can see all these issues from a fresh point of view.
After listening to Zoya, he finds that she has a valid point. He then advices her to be vigilant at home from then on and to see to it she finds solid proof this time before she tries anything in front of Asad.
Zoya determined now is going to be more attentive at home. She even finds the knife by which Tanveer was supposedly attacked. She manages to acquire the knife for finger-proofing. Tanveer though tries to stop her, fails to do so. But she is aware that Zoya is up to something. Zoya's new found determination to get to Tanveer seems to be becoming interesting.
Asad, however, has still not been able to manage time to propose to Zoya. He has been missing opportunities time and again. He had the perfect chance when they clashed outside Tanveer's window. He had the romantic dinner planned during which he had her for himself for quite some time. Asad needs to get the words out soon before he might somehow loose all chances of getting Zoya.

Fred Loya Insurance Hit by someone that had Fred Loya insurance yet they are not liable? that's crap! El Paso Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I was broad sided by a truck who after first impact ran me into a wall and totaled my car. I took my case to Loncar which contacted Fred Loya to process the claim and then was contacted by mail 3 weeks later by Lino Flores who works for Fred Loya. This notification included a claim number and contact information for him. After waiting a month and a half, calling and leaving messages with no reply my attorney representative informed me that because it appears that someone hit the man in the truck causing him to come over the median and hit me, and the fact that the person fled the seen and can not be located and the police report was practically crap, they would not take liability of my case and thats the end of it.
Not only have I suffered a complete loss of a vehicle I was close to paying off, I'm a single mother in desperate need of a vehicle and have suffered major injuries to my lower back and neck from the double impact. Injuries that I am now supposed to pay for. Regardless of who hit him, I was hit by a person that was insured by Fred Loya Insurance and they accept no liability, leaving me to figure out how to pay these bills for therapy and to suffer with a neck injury that I did not cause. I was hit, I did not hit the gentlemen. I live in a disqustingly racist town and I can not help but feel like I am being discriminated against. I wish to sue fred Loya I will not rest untill justice is served.

Rod Laver Arena
LADY Gaga last night raised the stadium show bar with her Born This Way Ball tour - and that included her audiences, hundreds of whom wore garish Gaga-esque costumes and make-up to her first Melbourne show.
In the first of five shows, the pop superstar managed not one, but two spectacular entrances - the first atop an elaborate ''horse'', worthy of the multimillion-dollar War Horse production, as she opened with Highway Unicorn, and the second when she was ''birthed'' via a giant inflatable vagina as she launched into her mega-hit Born This Way.
Oh, and in between she elicited squeals from the rapturous crowd as she sang Government Hooker while a back-up dancer simulated a sex act on her prone body. Perhaps it was three entrances?
The lavishly executed show, which features a four-storey Masters of the Universe-style castle set piece, is the live equivalent of a concept album, described by Gaga as an ''electro-metal-pop-opera''. It's mostly unclear exactly what that concept is, but it certainly looks impressive - even if Gaga's asides and swearing feel stage-managed to the syllable.
Atmospheric music, dry ice and a baffling floating ''head'' filled the occasional gaps as the singer changed into increasingly twisted costumes, part Grace Jones, part HR Giger. The mostly high-powered set included hits Just Dance, Judas, Black Jesus, Bad Romance and Paparazzi, peppered with exhortations to ''sing it, Melbourne'', ''get up'', and assurances from arguably the biggest name in pop that ''she's just like us''.

Woody Allen made his name making films based in New York but when financing problems hit his latest film he turned his back on his beloved home city and relocated the project to London.
But Allen said he never pays attention to how his films are received as he refuses to play the showbusiness game.
Allen said: "I'm never aware of how my films are doing financially or how they are reviewed, if people like them or don't like them.
"People always impute me with calculations that 'I made this film because my last film was a comedy so this will be a drama, or I make a film for a reason because it resonates in my private life, but those things are never true.
"I make a film for the fun of making a film and I hope people like it when it's finished, and if they don't there is nothing you can do about it because it's over.
"Then I go on to the next film and what ever idea I get I go with. I never participate in the business in any significant way."
Despite working in a new city, both Allen and lead actress Scarlett Johansson, the only American in the cast, said it was not a culture shock from living and working in New York.
Pleasurable experience
Allen said: "The cities are totally comparable. London is like New York. They are two big metropolitan centres full of culture, museums and theatres and restaurant and traffic and mixed population.
"England has an enormous history of important film-making. When I was a younger man we idolised the British film industry.
"Many of the great films we were seeing in New York were made in England and the British film-makers set the trends so they were more than equipped to do what we wanted."
He added: "I found it very pleasurable, so pleasurable I came back and did another one and I'm thinking of doing another one this summer."
Despite the title, Match Point has very little to do with the tennis circuit, and unlike romantic comedy Wimbledon, there is little to laugh about.
Jonathan Rhys-Meyers plays lead character Chris Wilton, an ex-tennis pro who finds himself welcomed into an extremely wealthy family.
When his cosy life is threatened he resorts to drastic measures to cling on to it, with luck playing a part in whether he can keep his place in high society.
"I think people who are really lucky are those that can recognise their luck. We all have lucky things happen but what do we do when we get that luck and what choices should we make?" said the Irish actor.
Actress Emily Mortimer believes her luckiest break has come in starring in a Woody Allen film, a dream she never dared would come true.
Head start
Mortimer said: "I don't think I've ever been in a film that's been nominated for Golden Globes before. I feel very excited and feel deeply proud of it.
"I feel it was luck that I, as an English actor got into it. It should have been made in New York and it was just by chance, a financing issue, that it got made in England.
"That gave me a head start because they then had to cast mostly English actors, whereas if it had been in America there would have been much less chance I would have been in a Woody Allen film."
Johansson was also thrilled she was available to step into the cast after Kate Winslet pulled out at the last minute.
"I feel very lucky to have worked with Woody and that I wasn't working that summer after a couple of years of working steadily," she said.
Allen was so impressed with Johansson he cast her in his next London film, Scoop, which he filmed during the summer of 2005.
Allen is now considering returning to the UK to make a third movie in 2006.

Our first look at the Nordic Tug 44. The Nordic Tug 42 was a heck of a boat, but she had a drawback or two. Her re-designed, and considerably refined replacement, the Nordic Tug 44, addresses the biggest of the lot with yachty panache.

I remember the first big, commercial tug I ever saw.

My idea of a tug back then borrowed more from the realm of children's literature than from the raw world of

There was no shelter from the bullets, and Pendleton fell fatally wounded.
Camp Pendleton, for example, has the Consolidated Substance Abuse Counseling Center.
"My sense was that the [Douglas] family was in the process of suing the Welches," recalled Pendleton.
Pendleton was at school on Tuesday, and classes let out early because of exams.
Laura told her the weekly wage Mrs. Pendleton had guaranteed.
He is a delegate, and rides to Philadelphia with Henry and Pendleton.
At a little unpainted railroad station, the investigator broke in on Pendleton's thoughts by calling on the chauffeur to stop.
"Yes," said Mrs. Pendleton, but her voice was without enthusiasm.

A Woman Goes Over The Knee
OTK Spanking still reigns supreme for many! The humiliation that must be felt by a fully grown woman when told to bare her bottom and present herself over the knee for a sound bare bottom spanking is something special! Maybe cause its the final act of submission, presenting her bare quivering cheeks to her man (or woman for that matter) knowing that for some infraction she has to be punished. Im partial to pretty blonde haired girls, the cocky arrogant type who seem to benefit most from a dose of good old fashioned discipline. Pretty much like the poor lassie in the below gallery. Take a look and enjoy Spank Master
2 Responses to "A Woman Goes Over The Knee"
Alvin Says:
I agree about OTK, however, I'd go even further. I particularly enjoy the scenario where the snooty, arrogant attractive older woman spanks a "schoolgirl" complete with pleated skirt, knee high socks and regulation underwear. During the spanking the older woman tells the younger one to stop "snivelling girl", moaning, etc. Obviously, the older woman is immaculately made up including well varnished nails. She is wearing a a revealing designer dress and high heels. The camera "pans down" to her shoes and ankles. Her legs are encased in fine denier and we are left with the tantalising thought of "is she wearing stockings or pantyhose?".
Suddenly, the much older head-master makes a dramatic entrance. He demands to know what is going on. This is a school where corporal punishment is still allowed. But only by the headmaster and only if written permission has been granted by the pupil's parents. It appears that the deputy head-mistress has exceeded her authority as no letter has been received. The head then speaks to her as though she were a pupil. She is no longer addressed as Mrs Norton, but Norton. The head informs her that she is to be dismissed for gross-misconduct. She begs him to reconsider. After careful thought and discussion with the girl, she is summoned back to his office after school. He tells her in a stern voice that instead of dismissal, she can keep her job, albeit with a warning, and that he will administer to her what she did to the younger girl. And as if to clarify the point that means a spanking over his knee. To which she shakes her pretty head from side to side and said that it was out of the question. She was the deputy head-mistress and a married woman. The camera pans down to her left hand to show her prominent wedding-ring. She tells him that she's never been spanked in her life.
After several minutes of toing and froing, fortunately for us the viewers, Mrs Norton is left with no alternative and lowers hersulf reluctantly across the heads lap. Her discomfort increases when he tells her that both the girl and have expressed a wish to witness the punishment. A glint appears in the eye of the head and it's obvious he's wanted to do this for a long time and it's well overdue. He starts the spanking on her well presented rear. After a good five minutes during which we hear a few "oh", "ah", etc and we get occasional glimpses of the bored look on her face as if to say "just get it over with". Suddenly, the younger girl calls out "But sir, she spanked me on my bare bum". The head agrees that Mrs Norton should also receive the same. This puts a different complexion on things and she protests, "No, please stop", as her expensive dress is slowly pulled up to reveal sheer black stockings with lacy ttps held up by a black suspender belt. Her mature, exquisite and well rounded bottom only partly covered with the flimsiest of white silk material. The spanking now continues all over her pantied covered bottom bringing forth cries of "It hurts, ow, please stop". Ignoring her protests and increasing her humiliation, these brief panties are soon fluttering around her ankles. And the once confident Mrs Norton is reduced to a sobbing girl who has been well and truly spanked.
Spank Master Says:
Nice idea. Its always good to see a mature good looking woman being put through her paces.

Lincoln, NE - Growing up in California during the late 90s and early 2000s, one might think Nebraska quarterback Taylor Martinez was a USC fan.
He wasn't.
Martinez was all about the UCLA Bruins - the same Bruins who showed interest in him during his senior year of high school as a safety, but never offered him a scholarship.
Four years later, Martinez will return home to take on UCLA. The junior, armed with confidence, is the reigning Co-Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week after throwing for 354 yards and five touchdowns in the Huskers opening game of the season against Southern Miss on Saturday.
Martinez, who worked out with West Coast quarterback coach Steve Calhoun in the offseason, saw his extra work this summer become a huge storyline entering the season. It appears the work paid off. The junior's mechanics and footwork are different and his passing completion rate is higher – even if it was only game.
"I am glad it happened in the first week," said Martinez, when talking about the start to his season. "Hopefully this momentum can keep going against UCLA."
Martinez was at ease in the pocket against the Golden Eagles, with plenty of time to find receivers down-field. He's finding he doesn't have the same amount of time to find tickets for friends and family for the Saturday night kickoff against the Pac-12 opponent.
"I think 40-50 people are going so far. A lot of people on the team have family out there, so I can't really get a lot from the players," said Martinez. "I'm very excited. I think there are a lot of California players on the team and we are all excited.
"I have never played there (the Rose Bowl). I have been to a few games there. It means a lot to go back to California and play there, so I am really excited to play."
Asked on Monday by reporters if he would have extra motivation playing UCLA considering they never offered, Martinez said "not really," he's happy being a Husker.
With his 354 yards, the California native became just the sixth Nebraska quarterback to throw for over 4,000 yards in his career, joining the likes of Heisman trophy winner Eric Crouch. If Martinez stays healthy, it's likely he will break the Nebraska career passing record by early next season.

KISS... the firewall already does inbound and outbound rules. Just as it
does inbound and outbound NAT, PAT, etc.
Why you would want to co mingle your inbound and outbound rules onto one
page is beyond me. Outbound rules are on the LAN. These should be
simple in most cases. Either you are going to have a restrictive
environment where you block all but a few ports. E.g. write a few allow
rules and then a catch-all of "block everything." Or, you have a
"business normal" outbound rule set where you block everything except
port 80, and TCP high ports like most businesses do. Or, allow
everything out but only block a few specific things like SMB, IRC, etc
that may be used in a worm or virus and only allow some systems to use
those ports. If you have something other than this, you are the one-off
and the interface shouldn't be designed around you.
The greater number of people will be able to logically track the rules
if the interface is setup like it is. E.g. If average Joe is trying to
get his PPTP network to have SSH access only to his LAN network he can
understand you have to make a rule on the PPTP interface permitting
access to the LAN. Combining things could very easily confuse people
who don't understand state and ACLs in general. You could end up with
many superfluous rules allowing return packets and everything else thus
adding lines of ACLs to the firewall and impacting its performance,
opening you up to security issues, etc.
