So, how was it for you ? Same as for me, probably.
Christmas, then New Year, and all too soon back to the grind.
Some things never change though, like my unbridled obsession with all matters housing.
Talking of which, pray do tell, where do you think the housing market is headed ?
Well, in the meantime, whilst you cogitate, try this for starters. The Bank of England moved this week to exert more control over the financial mechanics of the housing market. So, relax, take a deep breath and enjoy this amuse bouche: "The interim Financial Policy Committee (FPC) is today publishing a draft Policy Statement explaining the planned powers for the FPC to give directions setting extra capital requirements for the purposes of financial stability. The statutory FPC will be required to publish such a Policy Statement. A draft is being published today to assist Parliament's scrutiny of forthcoming draft secondary legislation".
"The government is planning two such powers: the countercyclical capital buffer (CCB) and sectoral capital requirements (SCRs). The CCB supplements headline capital requirements. The SCR supplements capital requirements on exposures to specific sectors judged to pose a risk to the system as a whole".
As it happens, the draft policy statement runs to 46 pages. So, without delving too deep into the nitty gritty, the FPC's primary objective is to identify, monitor and take action to remove or reduce systemic risks with a view to protecting and enhancing the resilience of the UK financial system. Further, subject to achieving its primary objective, its actions should support the Government's economic policy, including for growth and employment.
So, let me run all that past you again. Two powers, namely "countercyclical capital buffer" and "sectoral capital requirements". You couldn't make it up. Whilst this may all come across as total guff, there is a serious point underpinning the Bank of Englands reasoning. In a nutshell, the objective is to limit the risk of a rampant housing cycle by way of closer monitoring of lending activity, followed by appropriate levels of extra capital to underpin (safeguard) loans.
You will undoubtedly have your own take on all this – whether it's a good idea, or counter-productive to a healthy vibrant housing market. My view is that it could put a brake on mortgage lending which might directly affect sales activity levels.
However, only last week, an agent in Redditch told me that he felt "it's not all doom and gloom". He went on to say that the recent initiative by Barclays bank to offer mortgages at 95% loan to value is a positive sign that lenders are more willing to lend.
To be fair, he has a point. A small 5% deposit will attract more borrowers and therefore more housing sales activity. The scheme relies on the trusty "bank of mum and dad", as it allows borrowers to take out a three-year fixed-rate mortgage with a 5 per cent deposit, provided a family member deposits 10 per cent of the property's purchase price into a three-year savings account with the bank.
This sort of innovation in the mortgage market is to be applauded, and as my trusty Redditch agent would have it, it is good news and certainly a step in the right direction.
So, as we move through 2013, stay tuned for all things housing and enjoy the ride !

I just recently bought a Presto 6 quart pressure cooker. I have never used one for cooking before, but it sounds like it should be great. I also got it because this small 6 quart will hold 4 pint jars in it, which is good for me when canning small batches. Really, I dont often have large batches.
So I bought the Presto for $49.00 from Amazon, and it looks like a decent unit, though made in China. All Stainless steel, and pretty simple and basic, with a simple fail safe mechanism that keeps you from opening it when under pressure.
Some pictures of it:
But the manual does not reccommend it for canning for some reason. And also, the instruction booklet does not say what pressure the weight is calibrated for. Although the instructions do mention that at 15 lbs pressure, a cooker will reach 250 degrees. But it doesnt say that it refers to this cooker.
So my questions are, does anyone know what pressure these weights are calibrated for?
And, my more ambitious question, are the weighted steam vents fairly interchangable? I have a 22 quart mirro unit from the 70's, and it takes a weighted gauge that you can set for 5, 10 or 15 pounds. All of the pressure cookers I have seen, regardless of size, appear to use the same type of weight, whether they are a 10 quart or 20 quart.
Is is worth it to get a new stem and weight and upgrade my presto cooker to another type of weighted gauge? I realize canning is detail-critical, so I would not do it unless I could be very very certain I am doing the right thing. I also do not mean that I would just use the weight from my mirro canner on the presto unit - I mean unscrewing the stem and replacing it with, for example, a mirro stem and weight.
The top of my Mirro canner:
Any advice is appreciated.
A corner of my small garden is below. The terra cotta planters had my first test of potatoes. They started out really strongly in May and June, but the growth died back significantly during the heat here in the north east in July and August, and when I pulled the plants in early September, I got about 5 small potatoes, totaling no more than 12 ounces. I have to figure out what went wrong.
Thank you for any advice,
I can't tell from the pic, but the weight should have a number stamped on it (or three). I have an All American and the weight looks pretty much the same, but with three different holes in it (for different pressures). All else fails, email them.
Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it..
What you are proposing is exactly what I did when I bought a National 7A that had a pressure gauge. I had a 6qt mirro that I got at a yardsale, guess they clogged the vent and blew out the pressure relief (slightly warped the bottom but not bad). I took the pressure gauge of my 7A and screwed in the vent tube, perfect fit. I then ordered a new vent tube when I ordered a new pressure relief and a gasket. I now have a 6qt, 12qt, and 16qt canner that all use the same weight (I have 2 weights). The 6qt is GREAT for trial batches! I just trialed black beans and did 4 pints. It worked great, now I'm trying to find black beans in bulk to put into quarts.
I would go ahead and take both vent tubes off and see if they fit. If so, go ahead and order another. They run about $8 or so last I remember. You may be better off finding one at a yard sale if you aren't in a hurry, can probably find one of the 4 or 6 quart cookers for pretty cheap, even if its been blowed out like mine was. Check ebay, there is a guy on there right now selling canner parts and has a vent tube and weight for $10 shipped. Just let him know the vent tube with the pointy end needs to go with the weight, he switches what goes with what in the auction. If you can get him to agree to that then for the price of just the stem you'll get the stem and the weight.
Even if there aren't numbers on the weight, I'd be surprised if you don't have three different holes corresponding to 5, 10 and 15 lbs pressure. Like Waldo said, contact with the manufacturer is in order if your aren't sure.
My limited knowledge of the subject comes from a BYU series called living essentials. The expert said that cookers had metal that was pretty thin and not a good heat sink allowing too much temperature and pressure variation in the canning cycle. That could make the canned goods unsafe / not fully processed. She advocated only using a pressure canner. They are apparently different enough.
This may be the show, she did a more generic one on canning as well.

Thanks for the info so far. I may strongly look into what Spudgunr suggests. I am almost positive the stem size of the vent tube is the same, almost a standard, size. The new presto's seem to have only one setting, and it does not show what pressure it it. Below are photos of the presto weighted gauge, showing the top and bottom. Only one hole, and nothing but a part model number.
If this works, I agree, it would be great for small batches. In my small garden, I get moderate amounts of green tomatoes that fall off. The Ball book has a great green tomato salsa recipe, but I can only make a few half pints at a time. The small pressure cooker would work great for this.
The bottom of the gauge that goes onto the vent tube:
Thank you again, great information.
I cant guarantee that the switch will work, from what I had read National later turned in to Mirro, which may explain why they are threaded the same size. But, if they are approximately the same diameter at the base they'll probably swap, I'm sure they use one of the standard taps. Go grab a wrench and in 15 minutes you'll be able to tell us if they swap. If it does work please do let us know as then I could expand my canner collection if I found a cheaper presto, knowing I could swap the parts.
Edit: Just kidding, National turned into Presto, not Mirro. I'd say you have a pretty good shot of them swapping then.
Ok, here's a brief update, until I can spend a little more time on this later in the week. The new Presto stainless cooker has a vent tube that has a nut inside the canner, the thin metal of the lid has about a 1/4" hole in it. No threads in the lid, since it is thin, and the tube tightens against the nut.
The older mirro actually threads into the thicker lid of the aluminum. I can't gauge the thread now, its around 3/8" and finer than 16 tpi.
But overall, I think I can drill out the new presto, and add the older stem of the mirro. Instead of tapping the thin metal, I can easily fit a thin nut inside, if I can find one in brass or stainless. If it leaks a little steam, I think I can cut a thin gasket out of one of those silicon baking forms. They take high heat, and are food safe.
I will follow up with photos later, and any other insights are still welcome. I'll post how it turns out.
ETA: I see Dragracer Rob points out that the thin metal of a pressure cooker versus a true canner may allow too much fluctuation in temperature, and produce a bad product. This merits some looking into as well, although if the pot maintains an even pressure, I would think the temperature should remain within the range as well. Interestingly, it seems most canners are, in fact, thicker aluminum, rather than thin stainless.
I got about 3/8 and about 30 TPI. I cant find my thread gauges though so its probably 32 TPI (which would be 3/8 extra fine thread). Also, it may vary a bit, but if you keep draft off it and keep the weight moving how much variation can there be? I can see how it'd be an issue on dial gauge canners, but with the weight doing the regulating, so long as the weight is moving you have the right temperature.
Edit: And on the up side, you already know all they did was drill a hole. You can do the same thing if you cant use their nut. The top is the best spot since they probably flattened it a bit to make a better seal.

Let the Summer Movie Staff Picks begin! Starting today, every Friday we'll feature a movie someone on our staff has chosen as their favorite Miramax film. While the summer blockbusters invade the theaters, consider watching one of the staff picks over the weekend instead. Today's pick is Reservoir Dogs from our Digital Intern, Mu-Hwa Kuo.
Mu-Hwa KuoWith all the talk of Quentin Tarantino at Cannes, it's good to take a step back and reflect on his humble beginnings. Reservoir Dogs is Tarantino's debut as a director, made on a shoestring budget and written in a way that avoids costly action sequences. (Oh how times have changed.) The movie displays signs of Tarantino's burgeoning Tarantinoisms: nonlinear storytelling, mouthy characters, copious blood spilled on the floor and in the backseat, and a POV shot from a poor guy tied up inside of a car trunk.
Reservoir Dogs is not only my favorite Miramax movie, but my favorite movie period. It's a movie that shows what deft writing can do. Because the heist at the center of the story is never shown, the movie relies on Tarantino's incredible dialogue to create the dynamics in this band of criminals who, in 99 minutes, go from complete strangers to almost-friends to a four-way Mexican standoff.
This is a movie about all the times before the main event, and then after, when the characters deal with the fallout of their actions. The moments that stick out are the uneventful ones: breakfast at a diner while arguing over the merits of tipping, a car conversation that gets hijacked by Pam Grier and Christie Love, the vaguely offensive color-coding of these otherwise tough men.
Be sure to check out Reservoir Dogs this weekend and reminisce on vintage Tarantino. It may have been 20 years since Pulp Fiction came out, but it's been 22 years since Reservoir Dogs and it deserves as much acclaim (if not more) because it single-handedly brought Tarantino into our lives.

Sydney, Jan 7(ANI): Cricket Australia (CA) chairman of selectors, John Inverarity has admitted lack of spin bowling talent in the Test squad is a serious issue ahead of team's difficult tour of India next month.
Off spinner Nathan Lyon is certain to be on the flight to Delhi when an advance group of players, who heads to the subcontinent in February for an early tour match and to adjust to untried conditions, the Sydney Morning Herald reports.
England's Monty Panesar and Graeme Swann were central to a 2-1 series victory over India, completed in Nagpur in December, and Australia knows spin could be essential to its prospects over four Tests in Delhi, Mohali, Hyderabad and Chennai.
Lyon is the team's leading spinner, but the right-arm orthodox has been unconvincing over the 3-0 series whitewash against Sri Lanka.
There is no standout back up to Lyon, with the second most favoured, Victoria's Jon Holland, marginalized after a shoulder operation.
Left-arm spinner Michael Beer, who played the last of his two Tests at Port of Spain last April, will be one contender considered, while the 12th man in Sydney, Glenn Maxwell, is also in selectors' sights for India.
Inverarity said they wish to have a greater depth of quality spin bowlers than we have right now, but added that they got a pretty clear direction of where they are going, in terms of India and beyond.
Inverarity said there are two or three players who they are considering to back up Lyon for the India tour.
By choosing four quicks and Lyon for the third Test against Sri Lanka at the SCG, Australian selectors lost the opportunity to trial Maxwell, after picking the Victorian all-rounder to replace the injured Shane Watson in the squad. (ANI)

A Bedford man has completed an amazing four marathons in three weeks across two continents for charity.
Bedford College's Mark Lewis completed the Brighton, London, Boston and Stratford upon Avon Marathons between April 6-21 after a conversation in a pub inspired him.
Mark said: "It came from just sitting in a pub conversation having a chat about it and just went from there. Each race had its own challenges. Boston was quite muggy but the reaction from the one million spectators who lined the route was incredible. After the events of last year there was an attitude that 'you won't beat us'.
"I ran in Union Jack shorts and lots of people cheered me on saying 'Go on the Brits!' - it was fantastic."
Mark, who ran 105 miles in less than a month in aid of the charity Whizz-Kidz, is hoping to raise over £2,500 for the society which helps provide motorised wheelchairs for disabled children, giving them freedom and independence.
He said:" Each wheelchair will change a child's life. I was lucky I felt fine after the runs with only a few blisters but a little bit of pain for a few hours is nothing compared to those brave kids who go through so much more - so I was more than happy to do it."
However, after his marathon efforts Mark has no plans to complete four distances of 26 miles and 385 yards in a month again saying emphatically: "No, I don't think I will ever do that again. But I have definitely got the marathon bug. I was sitting at home afterwards and I just thought: 'What shall I do now I don't have any training to do?
"I will do another marathon next year but I'm in no rush to do four in a month again!"
Mark, who is head of hospitality at Bedford College, is being backed by his students who plan to bake a Snickers cheesecake for their themed menu at a charity fundraising dinner this month to help add to Whizz Kidzs funds.
He said: "I said to my students it's a shame that Snickers bar's aren't called Marathon's anymore - but none of them remember Snickers bars used to be called Marathons anyway and didn't know what I was on about - it made me feel very old!" It's still not too late to sponsor Mark and his amazing efforts. To donate visit www.justgiving.com/Mark-Lewis25

Politics of Monday, 17 February 2014
Source: citifmonline.com
The former spokesperson of the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council (AFRC), Major Boakye Djan, has described Dr. Josiah Ayeh's accusations of thievery against the government as an "attempt to create a collateral damage for the National Democratic Congress (NDC)."
"Dr. Josiah Ayeh is trying to create a collateral damage not only for politicians, but for the NDC, and as a professor he ought to know that he has got it all wrong"
A leading member of the National Democratic Party (NDP), Dr. Josiah Ayeh criticised government for what he described as a "gang of robbers" stealing from the people and leaving the country's economy in disarray.
But in a rebuttal, the General Secretary of the NDC, Mr. Asiedu Nketsia said Josiah Ayeh is an example of an intellectual who took bribes.
Giving his comments on the issue on the Citi Breakfast Show, Mr Djan opined that, "collateral damage handed on legal principles is clear because politicians by nature are not truthful; but if someone wants to address a certain issue, he or she must do it within a certain rule."
Drawing analysis on comments from Dr. Ayeh and Mr. Nketsia, Boakye Djan further stated that the fact that the General Secretary named a specific number of individuals as corrupt and Dr. Ayeh who just gave a general figure proved that Mr. Nketsia's comments were based on evidence.
"Josiah Aryee has not given any amount; he has not named anybody, unlike Asiedu Nketsia who gave a specific figure."
According to him, the media has no basis to criticise Mr. Asiedu Nketsia's response to thievery accusations against the government since those comments were based on evidence.
"Mr. Asiedu Nketsia comments were backed by substantial evidence, so if the General Secretary is questioning Dr. Ayeh's clean hands, the media should be tolerant and accept it," he said.

Football Cake
My first attempt at a football. It was just OK. I used the wilton football pan, but I really was not satisfied with the shape. I think I could have just carved it out myself with oval pans. My newphew loved it anyway (and that's what counts). The cake was covered with chocolate buttercream, the accents were MMF, and the grass was done with royal icing.

The Smithtown Trail segment in Shorewood will be hosting walkers and bicyclists by fall.
Shorewood City Council recently approved a resolution to make offers for acquiring additional property along the route. Planning Director Brad Nielsen says the number of easements needed by residents has dropped from around 15 to eight, which is a plus.
"We found either through prescriptive right that the city already has [access], which makes it easier and hopefully cheaper."
One engineering improvement to help alleviate the number of easements included sensitive drainage issues. The council at the March 25 meeting will vote on the approval of plans and specifications and advertisement of bids.
The city council heard an update in timeframes for the construction and completion of the trail that starts at the Lake Minnetonka Regional Trail at Eureka Road and runs to Minnewashta Elementary School.
A council goal is to have construction completed if possible before the school year begins in the fall. Nielsen says if that were not the case because of easement acquisition or construction delays forced construction into the school year, work wouldn't be conducted during the "rush hours" of the school day.
Nielsen says March 13 a neighborhood meeting will be held for residents to ask questions and see specific plans pertaining to the trails. This meeting will most likely be held at Minnewashta Elementary School.
The second neighborhood meeting May 21 will include what residents can expect and whom they can contact to obtain more information or if there are problems with the construction.
Council member Laura Hotvet encouraged everyone to tune in.
"I like that involvement of the public," Hotvet said. "The more we do of that the better."
Residents will also have an opportunity to weigh in on landscaping options such as what trees will be planted after construction is complete.
"It will be good to show them [the residents] options and get some dialogue going," said Mayor Scott Zerby.
City staff also added two "celebratory" events, which will include a ground-breaking June 10 just before construction and a ribbon-cutting after the completion of construction in late October or early November.

Graeme McDowell Takes Down Tiger Woods
I can list a dozen names that had a chance to beat Tiger Woods and couldn't do it. Bob May. Chris DiMarco. Steve Scott. Sergio Garcia. Rocco Mediate. Matt Gogel, and that is just a few off the top of my head.
But the 2009 PGA Championship changed a lot of it for people playing against Tiger. When Y.E. Yang stared down the once incredibly closer and beat him at his OWN game, it seemed the weight was lifted for PGA Tour members. "We can beat this guy," people started to think.
Then, as you well know, Thanksgiving happened, and all that was lost behind his persona life. It really was bad timing, because it would have been great to have 2010 be a regular season, and see how players responded with Woods on the ropes in another way (the Yang way, not the wang way).
Sunday at the Chevron World Challenge was a great example of where Tiger is right now; with his game, with his mental stability, with his competitors and with his fans. People LOVE to watch Tiger Woods play golf. That will never, ever change. People speak of the "it" factor, and in my lifetime, nobody has possessed that like Woods. Not Jordan, not LeBron, not Jeter, and not Federer. Tiger can make people care about golf that have never swung a 7-iron.
That was Sherwood. People were switching away from playoff-important football to watch Woods battle McDowell. The unknown from a year ago is now a major winner and a Ryder Cup hero. He has now won four events this season, including the Chevron, where he calmly rolled in birdie putts that nobody has EVER made on Tiger Woods (If you think back, Yang missed a short putt on the 71st hole at Hazeltine before making birdie on the 72nd, when par would have been good enough for victory).
It ended Tiger's season without a win. He took to Twitter and talked about how much he hates to lose. It was different, but fairly regular at this point.
As I noted over at Devil Ball, I don't think Tiger will ever be dominate again. Do I think he will win again? Of course, he is too talented not to win (much like I think David Duval will claim another PGA Tour title before he's done, I think Tiger will win a few more majors).
But Sunday was just an example of the PGA Tour, PI (post-intimidation). These guys aren't scared of Woods anymore, and anytime they're paired against him, they relish in the challenge. McDowell was the better golfer on Sunday. Nothing Tiger can do about that.

So McDowell not being scared of Tiger is why Woods missed those short putts yesterday?
I just don't think Tiger's all the way back yet. He can string together 2-3 rounds in a row, but the finishing hasn't returned.
The guy suffered a major injury, saw his entire personal life blow up in front of the world and changed his swing - all in less than two years.
Let's see where we are after an entirely healthy, controversy-free year before making proclamations about his ability to be dominant.

It's actually hard for most to remember the full extent to which Tiger dominated prior to Hazeltine and especially prior to the scandal.
And yes that dynamic has changed and ultimately it's probably the best thing that could happen to golf and possibly the best thing that could happen to Tiger.
Tiger will continue to excel because he's got the talent and the competitive nature, and as you say, the other players will now relish the opportunity to play against him... and his mystique - they won't cower and fall apart like they once did. How can this not be good? In 2011 I'm thinking we'll be seeing numerous replays of yesterday's action... Tiger and a worthy adversary going putt for putt on a Sunday afternoon. It may not make a huge dent in Sunday basketball, baseball and football ratings but it'll definitely improve golf's.

Superb blog post, I have book marked this internet site so ideally I'll see much more on this subject in the foreseeable future!
- December 22, 2010 at 3:18 PM
First point is TW is not changing his swing. He is trying to get his old swing back. This falsehood buys him more time to get his mental game back by fooling the public. As he continues to lose, he can use it to say he is "getting closer" so everyone will cut him slack. Genius I say, genius!

HP OpenVMS Systems Documentation
HP OpenVMS License Management Utility Manual
184.108.40.206 Permanent Methods
For more permanent access restrictions, issue one of the following commands:
5.6.2 Controlling Node Access to Licenses in Clusters
In an OpenVMS Cluster environment, you can control which nodes have access to a product. Some product licenses require you to control access by creating include or exclude lists with the LICENSE MODIFY command.
In an OpenVMS Cluster environment, license units are available to all nodes by default. If you need to control which nodes in a cluster have access to a product license, you must use the LICENSE MODIFY command with the /INCLUDE or /EXCLUDE qualifiers. These qualifiers take an argument list of System Communications Services (SCS) node names. SCS node names are system parameters set with the System Generation utility (SYSGEN). For example, if your cluster includes nodes MUSIC, ART, DANCE, and THEATR, you can specify that nodes MUSIC and ART have access to the software products registered in the License Database, while nodes DANCE and THEATR do not have access. The following command allows two nodes access to Pascal:
You can perform the same task by using the /EXCLUDE qualifier. The following command specifies the same product access as the previous command:
If a license does not provide enough license units for full availability across the cluster, use LICENSE MODIFY and one of these qualifiers. Otherwise, product availability is unpredictable. Products are authorized for use on nodes in the order in which they load the licenses. Unless you use an include list to control which nodes can load a product, the authorization to use a product can move from processor to processor during a series of system shutdowns and startups. When you shut down a system, LMF automatically unloads all loaded licenses on that system. If another cluster member boots before the first system reboots, the second system, referring to the common License Database, can automatically load the same license. Although this can be helpful, it may not be your intention.
You can use the /INCLUDE and /EXCLUDE qualifiers with the LICENSE MODIFY command to determine who has access to the pool of units created by LMF when it loads combinable licenses. However, note the following:
For example, if you assign an include list to four out of five combinable licenses, the default---all nodes are authorized---is in effect for the fifth license, and it overrides the lists on the other licenses. All nodes then have access to the product despite the include lists. Units for the product are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis as the nodes in the cluster are booted, until the pool of units is depleted.
To ensure access exactly as you intend it, assign the same include or
exclude list to each license. Purchasing more license units to fulfill
requirements to run across the cluster is another option.
Some licenses, such as OpenVMS operating system licenses, have the NO_SHARE option; they cannot be shared in a cluster environment. If you are using a common License Database, you must register a separate license for each cluster node and modify each to establish which node can load it.
To ensure that LMF can load a NO_SHARE license in a cluster environment, you have two choices, as follows:
A cluster environment typically uses a single License Database, which should include one OpenVMS license for each cluster node. You can change the association of license and node as long as the number, type, and size of the licenses match the processors present. For example, the cluster environment with nodes ART, MUSIC, DANCE, and THEATR should have four licenses, each one designated for a specific node. If you remove node THEATR and replace it with a node named CRAFTS, you must modify the license intended for THEATR to specify node CRAFTS.
Because an OpenVMS Cluster License Database often contains multiple licenses with the identical product name and producer, you should use the /AUTHORIZATION qualifier with LICENSE commands to uniquely identify a specific license. For example:
220.127.116.11 Editing Include and Exclude Lists
Each time you enter a LICENSE MODIFY command with an /INCLUDE or /EXCLUDE qualifier, LMF creates a new list. To edit an existing list, use the /ADD or /REMOVE qualifier in your command line. The following example illustrates the required syntax without using the /ADD or /REMOVE qualifier:
You can also use the following commands:
If your license uses the MOD_UNITS option, you can also modify the size of a license in a cluster environment. To change the size of the license, enter a LICENSE MODIFY/UNITS=number command that specifies a number sufficient for your needs and allowed by your license agreement. For example, to change a license registered with 1000 license units to a 1500-unit license, enter:
5.6.3 Controlling User Access
To control which users have access to a product, use the LICENSE MODIFY command with the /RESERVE qualifier. This qualifier takes an argument list of user names called the reservation list. Although the definition of a user can differ from product to product, most products accept the user name that OpenVMS maintains for each account. This is the name you type at the Username prompt during login. See your product's Software Product Description (SPD) for details.
If your PAK specifies the RESERVE_UNITS option, you must assign one or more users to a reservation list. The number of user names allowed per list depends on the number of activity units available. Calculate this number as you would for any activity license. For example, if a software product requires 50 license units per activity and your PAK provides 100 license units, you have a 2-activity license. If the PAK also specifies the RESERVE_UNITS option, you have an unlimited activity, two-user license. For this license, you must create a reservation list with at least one, but no more than two, names.
Note that the LICENSE MODIFY command affects only data in the license database; it does not affect licenses already loaded. To change a loaded license, reload it with a LICENSE LOAD command. For example:
To add more user names to the reservation list, use the /ADD qualifier and the /RESERVE qualifier, as follows:
This adds new users P_LESH and M_HART to any list already established for the specified product. You can remove a user name with the /REMOVE qualifier.
You can have many Personal Use Licenses for the same product. For license loading, LMF combines all of the license units and determines the number of users according to the total number of units. Therefore, the total number of names on combined reservation lists for this product must not exceed the number LMF authorizes from the unit count, because LMF authorizes only the correct number from the lists and rejects extra names.
Although you can find extra or repeated names using one or more LICENSE LIST/FULL commands, you cannot easily predict which users LMF will reject. Do not assume that LMF denies access to the third name listed on the reservation list of a two-user license. The total number of names and total number of license units is the important calculation.
To load corrections to a reservation list you must enter the LICENSE LOAD command for the licenses. The following example includes the warning message for too many names:
Because LMF combines the license units, you can assign one long
reservation list to a single license; LMF simply adds the license units
from the combinable licenses and counts the names in all reservation
lists for those licenses. If you have three combinable licenses that
authorize use to six users, you can modify one of them to have a 6-name
reservation list. Note that this differs from the behavior of include
and exclude lists with node names in an OpenVMS Cluster.
If you have many variations of licenses for a product (for example, with different versions, tokens, or hardware identifiers), and you think that you are not getting maximum use of the product, you can check the order of loading of the product licenses. By default, LMF assigns a selection weight to each license and loads each license in descending order of selection weight. The grant order is the order in which LMF checks licenses before granting one.
Loading is the process that LMF uses to store licenses in memory. Granting is the actual allocation of units to a user using a licensed product. Selection weights contol the order in which LMF checks multiple licenses for a single product while attempting to perform a license grant for that product.
To determine grant order, enter the DCL command SHOW LICENSE/FULL. You can then enter the LICENSE LIST command with the /SELECTION_WEIGHT qualifier to display the selection weight. Modify selection weights of licenses as needed with the /SELECTION_WEIGHT qualifier to the LICENSE MODIFY command.
To change the selection weight, use LICENSE MODIFY/SELECTION_WEIGHT,
and then load the changed licenses with LICENSE LOAD.
A previous version of this manual incorrectly stated that you must define the logical name LMF$DISPLAY_OPCOM_MESSAGE in order for messages to appear.
If you have already defined this logical name, you should delete the definition.
Define the LMF$DISPLAY_OPCOM_MESSAGE logical name only if you are explicitly directed by HP to do so (for debugging purposes). When defined, this logical name causes many "noise" messages to be displayed on the operator's console. Some of these messages can be confusing and misleading to the point of suggesting that a product is not licensed when in fact it is.
To see if this logical name has been defined on your system, enter the following command:
To delete the logical name, enter the following command:
5.8 Troubleshooting Licensing Problems
If you are having problems that appear to be related to reaching PAK limits or missing licenses, you can perform basic troubleshooting using the LICENSE and SHOW LICENSE commands.
First, try listing the PAKs using the following command:
This command will list all the PAKs that are in the License Database (.LDB) file. These licenses may or may not have been loaded into the memory license database. Check to make sure that all your active licenses have been loaded and that any unused licenses are not being loaded into the License Database.
Next, use the /HISTORY qualifier to check licensing activity.
This command shows you all the activity you have performed to the License Database. Make sure that the history matches what you think should be.
You can also use the SHOW LICENSE command to see if the number of licenses is correct. The /UNIT_REQUIREMENTS command displays the information in the License Unit Requirement Table.
Use the /CLUSTER qualifier to diplay the license unit requirements for every node in an OpenVMS cluster.
Use the SHOW LICENSE/USAGE command to see how many license units are loaded and how many are allocated and available. SHOW LICENSE/USAGE also tells you the license type for each product on the system.
If you own multiple license types for a single product in an OpenVMS cluster, you can only view the usage information for the license type loaded on the node from which you issued the SHOW LICENSE/USAGE command. To find out the usage of another license type loaded on another node, issue the command on that node.
In an OpenVMS Cluster, usage information is limited to the local license type. For example, LMF considers VAX and Alpha availability licenses different license types. If you are running both VAX and Alpha systems in a cluster, usage information for availability licenses is limited to the local system type. For example, if you have HP C installed on all nodes in your OpenVMS Cluster, you can display HP C license allocation on all the VAX nodes in the cluster from any VAX node with HP C installed, but you cannot display the HP C license allocation on the Alpha nodes.

I heard rumors years ago that Monty planned to open a 24-hour diner on the corner of King and Webster (parking lot next to Opus). He'd bought a diner car and everything. Turned out there'd once been a gas station or something on that site, and the remediation required before a restaurant could go there was prohibitively expensive.

Julianne Hough | Golden Globes Red Carpet Fashion 2013
Golden Globe Awards: Julianne Hough
Julianne Hough had a serious princess moment tonight as she arrived on the red carpet in a white-and-gold gown from Monique Lhuillier's Pre-Fall '13 collection. Her dress was sleek and sparkling on top with gold embellishments. Her full white tulle gown also got the midas touch, with those same embellishments sparkling from every fold, wisp, and layer of her full skirt. Although we couldn't get a peek at her shoes, she accented her look with an eggplant clutch, minimal jewels, and a modern updo — which had just as much sophisticated whimsy as her gown. Are you on board with Julianne's look?

Today is the day, cognitiveSEO's bot gets a "face" and a "name". I would like to introduce you:
Mr. James [Bot] – Agent SEO
This is the "guy" who is crawling your sites and your backlinks, analyzing your content and social visibility. If you have any problem with him crawling your site just send him a mail at firstname.lastname@example.com. He will get a dedicated page in the future … but for the moment I prepared a short "interview" in order to introduce him to you:
Razvan: Who are you and what do you do exactly?
James (BOT): As you might have already noticed my name is James BOT aka Agent SEO. I am the "human interface" that represents the cognitiveSEO bot. I am the robot that crawls sites, classifies pages and segements the best data for each customer. I live on multiple servers and I can easily scale to whatever power might be required for our users. I leave and breathe on the Internet in various datacenters around the globe, crawling from hundreds of IPs and servers. If you want to easily identify me in your logs search for this string:
User Agent: "James BOT – WebCrawler"
I work on demand for each individual customer of cognitiveSEO providing the most in-depth data possible for each and every site analyzed in the system. I work together with some of my best friends MJ12bot from MajesticSEO, ScoutJet from Blekko, Ahrefs Bot and many others. We compliment each other, by doing stuff that helps SEO professionals and site owners to understand internet marketing faster and better.
Razvan: What were your contenders for this "Master Bot" position?
James (BOT): I was the final winner for the "human interface", but I can tell you that I had some serious competition.
Cognitive started the "human interface" search, late last year. Here are the initial candidates:
First Round Interview
Second Round Interview
Initial cognitiveSEO Bot Hire
The Cognitive team let him go and afterwards they waited approximately 6 months until they decided to re-start the search for the "human interface" of their unnamed bot.
Third Round Interview
That is when I appeared on the scene :). In the final I was together with this guy. Great guy I can tell you! I had a lot of chats with him in the backstage ( about crawling, analyzing and girls 🙂 )
After a lot of thinking, the cognitiveSEO crew gave me the Job. Hopefully I will be up to it :). That's the long story short.
Razvan: Let's get a bit more technical. How do you crawl and what do you do with the data?
James (BOT): After getting the initial data from my Bot friends, I open up all my instances and start the on-demand crawl process for each and every page. I do it at the most in-depth level by analyzing each page individually assigning lots of useful metrics that allow our customers to get a better insight at their site or competitor sites. I do a lot of CPU intensive stuff and I apply some really tough artificial intelligence algorithms, in order to extract the data in a human readable format. I further validate it, and send it to the final servers to be served freshly to the customer.
Razvan: What makes you different then any other bots?
James (BOT): I have been developed from zero and I have grown into a stable full-time worker that is capable of lots of unique and useful things. For example: I crawl visually and I take snapshots for each of the pages I visit. This is really helpful for our customers because they can simply browse through a list of photos (with the link already highlighted) and not through a list of raw links, saving tremendous amounts of time for them. Other thinks that make me stand out are my abilities to classify content while crawling at a tremendous speed. I classify pages based on their content category , site type , language used and many others. All these metrics, give our customers extremely valuable information about the internet marketing strategies used by their competitors. These are only some of the things that make me unique. There are others but I just don't want to look like I am full of myself :).
Razvan: What are your plans here at cognitive SEO?
James (BOT): I want to grow smarter faster and to provide our customers with the Cutting-Edge SEO Tools that they need to outrank their competitors.
Razvan: Tks for the quick interview!
James (BOT): My pleasure. Looking forward to make good things happen. Tks

|You are in: Special Report: 1997: Schengen
Wednesday, 28 January, 1998, 11:43 GMT
A traveller's guide to Schengen
Countries already within the Schengen agreement:
France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Spain and Portugal and Italy.
For nationals from outside the Schengen area, as well as nationals from non-EU member states, a visa or residence permit may also be needed for travel within individual Schengen countries. (See advice below.)
External borders
Internal borders (land, sea and airport frontiers)
There will also be some restrictions on entry without a visa for the nationals of some non-EU member states and in some Schengen countries. The issue of visas is still confusing and travellers are advised to check with a travel agent before setting off.
At the airport
The best advice for nationals of non-EU member states wanting to travel into the Schengen area is to check visa requirements with a travel agent, making sure to state all the countries they intend to visit.
Time limits
Whether they need a visa or not, nationals of non-EU countries may only travel freely in the Schengen area for a maximum of three months. Where this period used to vary from country to country, it now applies throughout the Schengen area
For longer periods of time, a visa or residence permit is required. The individual member countries set their own time restrictions and these therefore need to be checked before travelling.

Johannesburg - President Jacob Zuma will finish his five-year term in office despite concerns about his state of health, the Sunday Times reported.
"There is no indication to us that we should worry about the health of the president," ANC spokesman Zizi Kodwa was quoted as saying by the paper.
"The president is well but I think he needs a rest."
According to unnamed sources, Zuma's poor health was caused by a heart condition, diabetes, high blood pressure and exhaustion.
Zuma took a 10 day break from his duties, after attending a national executive committee lekgotla earlier this month. - Sapa

People love playing parlay cards and they are very popular in work pools, online sports wagering or just for fun. Pro and College football are the most popular sports for parlay card betting. Below is an example of how parlay cards work and betting with them.
Parlays are a
popular style of betting because of the higher payouts. Since each individual wager on the parlay card must win, it becomes a more difficult bet and the payouts are increased higher than if you had simply made the individual sports wagers.
Betting parlays allow you to combine several individual bets into a single wager with a higher payout. The full parlay card wager wins if every one of the individual wagers cover the point spread or total on the game. If any single wager loses on the card, the entire parlay card bet is lost. If any of the parlay card wagers is a push or tie, the parlay bet is still good, it just reverts down to the next payout. So, for example, a four team parlay wager would become a three team parlay (and the payout would be reduced accordingly).
Here is an example of an NCAA football parlay card bet. You want to make a 3 team NCAA football parlay bet for 100 units with the following game picks: Ohio State -7, Miami +3, and Oregon -10, The three team parlay would typically pay 5 to 1. You would simply circle those games on you card and turn it in. So, if all your picks are winners, you would win 500 units. If even one pick is wrong, you would lose the entire parlay cards football wager.

It's not Kansas, but American Canyon's football team will tell you that there is no place like home.
You won't find a yellow brick road at 3000 Newell Drive but all roads to the championship game lead through Wolf Den Stadium if a Sac-Joaquin Section Division III team wants a title as the Wolves have earned the No. 1 overall seed. The Wolves (9-1) begin the playoffs tonight against El Dorado of Placerville (6-4) .
American Canyon head coach Ian MacMillan said the potential of playing every game at home will be nice, and not typical of a usual playoff experience.
"It's nice we don't have to go on a bus on a long ride for an away game," MacMillan said. "We have a good crowd and a huge community of fans who will get into it. It will be different because most playoff games start at 7 p.m. as opposed to 7:30 p.m. since there is no J.V. game."
Tight end Tristen LaPlume said he's also excited for tonight's game in front of the Wolves' faithful followers.
"Playing at home the atmosphere is just different with all your friends and family there," LaPlume said. "You have this sense of pride and you want to defend the home stadium's turf."
How good is American Canyon at home?
Well, lifetime the Wolves are 15-3 at Wolf Den Stadium with two of those losses coming in the program's first varsity season. American Canyon is averaging 42 points a game during that span and have never scored less than 21 points at home (a 2011 loss to Rodriguez). The Wolves also won their only two playoff games ever at home last season.
While the home crowd helps, the players are the main reason for high winning percentage. Unlike the characters in "The Wizard of Oz," the American Canyon football team does have a lot of heart, brains and courage. They also have a lot of talent.
Three-year starter and senior linebacker D.J. Hughes was recently named the Solano County Athletic Conference's Co-Most Valuable Defensive Player along with Vanden's Elijah Williams. Senior Jomon Dotson, who has verbally committed to the University of Colorado, was named Back of the Year. The Wolves also had four other SCAC first-teamers: Malik Beachum, Joey Dodson, Jacob Clark and Sergio Toral.
MacMillan said he's been very impressed with the play of Hughes and was thrilled he won the award.
"He's just an animal out there," the Wolves' head coach said. "He plays on both sides of the ball and he plays well. On defense he's had a lot of success because he's got great lateral speed. It's hard to run right at him, so a lot of teams will try running the ball away from him. He's so quick though that he's still able to make a play."
Offensively, Dotson has been the main playmaker with his SCAC-leading 25 touchdowns this year, but lately has been hobbled by an ankle injury.
Last week against Benicia, Robert Wilkes filled in nicely when he ran for 241 yards and four touchdowns in last week's win. MacMillan said Wilkes will start but that Dotson will also get playing time and is healthy heading into tonight's game. With Hughes and Gary Cooper, MacMillan has a lot of good options on the ground.
"I don't know why people think this but I don't keep track of who is getting how many carries each game," MacMillan said. "My goal is to design plays where we score touchdowns and to get the ball in the end zone as quick as possible. Winning is the number one priority and I don't really think about the other things. I think a lot of the reason for us having a lot of good running backs is because of the great play from the offensive line. Without them nobody is going anywhere."
No matter how many weapons the Wolves' have, MacMillan said his team is not taking anything for granted. El Dorado may have finished in fifth place in the Sierra Valley Conference, but the Cougars come into the postseason having won three games in a row, including a 64-0 thumping of Galt.
'They're big," MacMillan said. "They have a much bigger line than us as most of their players are 250 pounds or more. No. 23 (Logan Kirby) is a good back and their quarterback (Nick Bonniksen) is very athletic. They're well coached and that have a defense that uses a 3-3 stack similar to the one we had trouble with when we played Bethel."
Beachum agreed with his coach and said the team has prepared well for the first-round matchup.
"Yeah they are a lot bigger than us on defense, but I feel that if we execute our assignments on offense we should be good," Beachum said. "We're going into this game knowing it could possibly be our last so we're taking it seriously."
Looking to find holes in the El Dorado defense will be quarterback Michael Rapacon, who made the All-SCAC second team. Rapacon is 9-0 as a starter in SCAC play for his career.
"Michael's biggest improvement since he took over as a starter has been with his leadership abilities," MacMillan said. "He's a lot smarter and he knows what needs to be done."
LaPlume said that American Canyon's practice this week was one of their best ever and that the Wolves won't be satisfied until they have a title.
"As a sophomore last year I was called up to the varsity late and I was there when we lost to Oakdale," LaPlume said. "I'm excited to show everyone how much hard work we've put in and how it's going to pay off. We're not only trying to do this for the team this year but for all our brothers who were on the team last year."

Digestive Disorders
Hepatitis C and pancreas
I have chronic Hepatitis C. Would that affect my pancreas? Because I`m having problems with it now.
I do not have enough information to fully answer the question. It is possible, but very unusual to have pancreatic problems related to Hepatitis C. Often additional factors may affect both the liver and the pancreas.

2013 and earlier-Mercedes Benz E-Class Prices Paid
First of all, not everyone can qualify for the USAA discount. You, or an immediate family member must be a veteran. Secondly, you need to have an insurance policy of some sort with USAA and/or accounts with them.
Secondly, used car prices have skyrocketed. I have looked at Manheim, which is the auctions, and prices have been unbelievable.
I would buy the new car, not the used car, for sure. I paid under 47K for mine with the discounts.
Hope this "food for thought" has been helpful.
2017 BMW 740Li
Can you tell me what the second 1500 discount was for?? Also, if you use the USAA buying service they get you the car for 49K, and then you print a coupon and take to dealer. So, I'm guessing that you do not use the buying service but just tell them you are entitled to the discount at the dealer.
Also, does anyone know then the 4000 rebate for USAA ends, some places say July 31, and others say August.
I brought my ID number from USAA to the dealership. They applied for and received the $4000 coupon from USAA via and email from them.
I believe this is good until August 31, 2011. Check back on this forum site to about 2 weeks ago, I believe the date was listed there.
I received an additional $1500 because I was a loyal customer of theirs. I've purchased 5 Benz autos from them in the past couple of years, so they said I qualified for an additional incentive, which they had.
USAA will show you the actual vehicle invoice cost when you look it up after you have built your car the way you want.
2017 BMW 740Li
Thanks for the reply. I see that some local dealers have 2011 CPO E350's and are asking the same price for the car as if it was new. I don't understand the logic at all except that you get an extra year of warranty. Can't see anyone buying it thought, because they told me you cant lease it, and the interest rates on preowned are about .5% higher then buying new.
Hi, this thread has been insightful, only wished I had read it earlier in the buying process.
We picked up today 2011 E350 4matic that was $58,525 MSRP and got $8200 off, plus a service coupon.
The GM did clarify to me that the Conquest was $4K this month (give copy of registration). I could not get any loyalty discount as well, (stated prior as ~1500) as we were told it was one or the other and that the loyalty was for someone financing thru MB. We do have a MB, but not purchased at this dealer.
With other dealers I mentioned wanting both program discounts, but only got conquest discount.
Say Abacomike, I know that you said you've bought a few MBs from same dealer, i was wondering if you give them a trade-in or something that helps them get to your great purchase prices?
p.s., The car is elegant and all, but I think the variable assist steering and heavy weight and feeling of not so quick acceleration make it a pure luxury car and not as sporty as BMW/Audi lines. Next time, I'll get the E550 :shades:
I do trade my vehicles, but they give me $1500 to $2000 over Manheim because they sell my preowned cars on their lot ( I only put on about 6,000 miles per year) and I buy a new one every year. So I get the USAA discount (invoice less their incentive, which was $4,000 last month) less $1500 because I do finance with MB Finance along with 1.9% APR which is their buy rate). They gave me $44,500 for my trade ( I only paid 48K for the car when I bought it).
They just give me their very best pricing (they beat all the other dealers here in South Florida by thousands) because I buy a car from them every year and refer many associates and friends to their dealership.
Hope this helps understanding how I get the best pricing. I would assume not everyone can get this at their dealership. But I have seen pricing on this forum that comes pretty close to what I get. I just seem to get a great upfront deal along with high trade in values since they can sell the vehicle on their lot and they don't have to wholesale it.
They sold my trade from last month for $48,500, and gave me 44,500, or $4000 over what they gave me. They had to get the car certified, which costs them about $1500 or so. What I don't understand is how they can sell my year old car for a little more than I paid for my new 2011. I know the used car market is booming (prices have risen an average of 15% on used cars of the last year.

jwilliams2 Posts: 910Must be really strong if they resold your car for more than you paid for it new.
The car had 4800 miles on it. it was in perfect condition, no dings, scratches, etc. NOne of the cars I trade have any mars or defects on them. I am sure if it did, I could not have gotten what I got out of it.
They advertised the car for 49,990 on the lot. Most people would have to pay 52,000 for a new 2011. So I guess they figured that it was a great deal. Remember, there is a sucker born every minute, and most of those suckers don't read the forum here on Edmunds.
Also, remember that they got the car certified which means the warranty goes to a total of 100K and 7 years. So to some people, it is worth it.

Can anyone explain why when I build the car at edmonds.com (E350 sport 4matic, Black/Black MB Tex, Premium 1 and wheel pkg) the incoice is 53569 and when I build on USAA.com the Invoice is 57603? The Edmonds price minus USAA discount gets me under 50K but the USAA site shows me at 53K AFTER rebate??
The price you received from USAA is the MSRP of the vehicle. When you get the USAA final price, it should be invoice less $4000.00. So something is wrong. I did it and it showed the invoice less $4000.
Are you sure you are using the site correctly? Double check or call USAA and speak with a customer service rep. If you qualify, they will give you the info on the phone.

kevinc5 Posts: 204How does the Mercedes Loyalty Discount operate? Do you have to be a current owner of a Mercedes or do you also have to have a prefered customer relationship with a particular dealer. In other words, loyalty to Mercedes or loyalty to the a dealer? Thanks.
It is my understanding that it is to either, depending upon the dealer. If you have a good relationship with a dealer, he is probably more willing. Also, I believe the loyalty is for Mercedes Benz Financial this summer. YOu might want to check it out. I got an APR of 2.49% for 66 months, but I am a customer of MB Financial as well.
2017 BMW 740Li
Does anyone know when the incentive 4k ends if you are a bmw owner? My husband's lease is up in Sept and we are looking to lease the E350. The dealer is pushing to do it immediately (def. before the end of July), and I would prefer to wait until August. Just trying to sort out if they are trying to get commission numbers in July, or if the incentive really ends this month.
I believe it is until Aug. 31st. Contact Mercedes Benz (800-367-6372). This is the roadside assistance number, but you can also press the appropriate phone button when prompted to get Mercedes Benz customer assistance. Then ask them to connect you to the proper party, which they will.
Like I said, I believe it is until 8/31/2011, but I could be wrong. If it is 8/31, you have awhile. But according to my Mercedes Dealer, each dealer has so many they can use. Check that out.

Hi, thanks for this responses and the others. It helps to know for better buying experience.

manku Posts: 63A brief comment on all MB's, after leasing 4 consecutive ones the last 10 years...
The $1095 acquisition fee is highway robbery...Audi, for example, only charges $595.
The $595 lease termination fee is obscene as well...industry standard is $350ish.
Otherwise, cars (one c320 wagon, e320wagon, two e350s) have been mixed...new 350 engine is great, but a real gas guzzler. nav/audio system is awful. seats, handling fantastic. highway crusing superb. comfortable for 4.
i had two black/black cars...while they looked great when clean (which lasted only about 6 hours), when dirty they look awful. i would only get a light exterior color and either beige or light grey interior, fwiw.
also, if you plan on leasing another benz, don't buy the prepaid maintenance or excess wear and tear... two reasons: car is totalled/stolen you've paid for nothing, and when buying a new MBZ the dealer will overlook nearly everything...my last trade in had at least $1500 worth of exterior damage!
and for people looking for 2011 e class, the new engine will be 20% more powerful and 20% more efficient...plus a 7 inch color display. if you're going to spend all this money (at least 10k/year inc. insurance/gas/car details), spend the extra $100/month and get the new model.
kyfdx Posts: 63,266The $1095 acquisition fee is highway robbery...Audi, for example, only charges $595.
MB Finance only charges $795.. the other $300 is dealer markup (with MBFinance permission)...
BMWFS is $725 (which they allow to be marked up to $925)..
I agree.. it's a ridiculous amount...

My last E350 was a Black/Beige. I hated the black. It seems that 10 years go by between the time I bought a black car and the time I forgot how bad they were. When clean and waxed, nothing beats black. But....here in FL, we get rain every day. As soon as it rains, my black car had water spots all over it when it dried.
That's why I just got a silver one with black interior. The silver shows "nothing". The black interior shows no grime or grit like my beige and light grays used to show.
As for leasing, I haven't leased in 10 years, but I would never pay that king of uprfront money for a lease. It is robbery, in my opinion.

dewarsandsoda Posts: 159For those you patiently awaiting the arrival of the '12 E350 sedan, my dealer just advised me that she won't have vehicles on the floor until the end of October. She could not even build one for me at this time.
I was just at my dealership this morning. He said they "just opened" the ordering software for them to order 2012 E sedans. He is going to order me an Iridium Silver and a Palladium Silver w/black interior with P1, Tire and Wheel pkg, rear spoiler and sport package for delivery in late October. Then, he said I can choose which one I like best.
So, if you want to get one of the first ones available, now is the time to order one.

Hi Abakomike:
Sorry to bother you again.....but as I mentioned to you earlier that the deal that I made on the CPO car did not go through....since the car had some starter issues. The service center of my MB dealer also found out that this car had some water in the engine and so the GM does not want to sell this car to me since he thinks even though it is a CPO car I will be visiting the service center too often.....
But since they do not have any other pre-owned car that meets my requirements, he has offered me a deal on a new 2011 E350 ....
040 Black
105 Almond MB-Tex
P01 P01 Premium Package:
R08 R08 Wheel Package: 18" AMG Twin 5-Spoke ,
18" AMG Twin 5-Spoke Alloy Wheels
Accessory Styling Package (Rear Deck and 3-Spoke Sport Steering Wheel ), AMG Sport Package,
Power Tilt / Sliding Panorama Sunroof
Black Ash Wood Trim
Heated Front Seats
He is offering me this at $47200, because he wants to make up for the problenm I had with the CPO car.
My only issue is that this car does not have the metallic paint...just the ordinary black paint :-(....but I think that the deal is good....what is your thought on this...should I go ahead....I might be able to get him lower the price by another 1000....
I would really appreciate your feedback....I doubt whether anyone else in my locality will give me this deal...
The deal sounds like a fair deal. The panorama roof is extra, the spoiler is extra, and the tire/wheel package is extra (includes sport steering wheel and AMG 5 spoke wheels).
Can I assume he is giving you the conquest discount? It seems from the pricing that he did.
Unless he has another color (I just got rid of my black car and got a silver one because black shows everything, and I mean everything), which I would choose over black (gray, silver, white), I would take the deal. You are getting about 9500+ off the sticker, which is what I got on my car.
So, unless you can't find another dealer with a different color, I would jump at it.
Good LUck
2017 BMW 740Li
The black paint is also ordinary . not special paint which adds $720 to MSRP. The dealer emailed me yesterday nighe saying that they also have a palladium silver with similar package.......
Yes, you are correct they are doing the Conquest and I think they are also adding the MB dealer loyalty discount, since the GM introduced me to the sales manager by saying he is one of the most loyal customer so make a deal on a new car of his choice that is the best.....since we could not deliver his selected CPO car....
I had suggested 45K, when the GM came back and said that his final price is 47200......I will talk to them soon and maybe close the deal......too bad I could not get the steel grey....but this deal is too good.....
I forgot to say it is a 2011 model.
I asked for $1000 more off the price (beyond the USAA discount), but I don't know what the dealer is calling it. He did take down the information that I have an Acura MDX (not used for trade-in though).
Curious thing that I only noticed AFTER I got home. The window sticker lists the P02 Premium Package, but heated front seats are listed separate from the package. There AREN'T ventilated seats, which should be part of the P02 package I thought....
At least in MN most of the time that shouldn't matter!!
The P2 package is about $2000 more than the P1. Yes, heated seats are listed separately, but you will notice that there is no charge for that because it is included in the P2 and P1 packages.
If you are getting a brand new 2011 E350 with that equipment for the number you listed, it is an excellent price. Rememeber, they cannot give you the conquest discount "and" the USAA discount, it is one or the other. Sounds like a terrific deal.
Good LUck.
2017 BMW 740Li
susa1 Posts: 1Just bought a 2011 E350 4 matic black on black from Naperville MB dealer (chicago area). a few basic options: premium 1, heated front seat, rear split folding seat. MSRP 57805. Paid 47600 + title, tax, etc.
I think it's good deal but don't know what you guys think. BTW, it's pretty easy to get a good deal from them, just ask for Ed.
I finally closed my deal with my local MB dealer for 2011 E350. Here are the details of the car:
Model: 2011 E350
Color: Steel Grey with ash/black interior and black maple wood trim
755 Steel Grey $720
108 Ash MB-Tex
P01 P01 Premium Package: $4,000
R32 18" 5-Spoke Wheel
321 321 Sport Package: 18" 5-Spoke Alloy Whe
413 Power Tilt / Sliding Panorama Sunroof $1,090
736 Black Ash Wood Trim
873 Heated Front Seats
917 PZEV-Emission, USA
With the standard steering the deal was made at $46104 ($9981 below MSRP), but finally I paid $46475, and made the dealer change my steering wheel to the sport 3-spoke steering wheel.
Thanks for all the help.

Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment that is needed. The dogs are then placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement into their permanent home. Our group remains interested in and committed to the welfare of the dogs beyond the adoption process.
Our goal is to help dogs in distress without regard to age, breed, size, or ease of placement. To the extent our finances allow, dogs in the greatest need take priority.
Finally, we strive to work with area shelters and other rescue groups to develop a network of supporters and volunteers to create a better world for homeless dogs.
All dogs that are adopted from BarkTown are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and provided with all necessary veterinary care. However, owning a pet can be expensive and you must be prepared to provide quality food, monthly heartworm medication, monthly flea and tick medication, yearly shots and routine checkups. In addition, you must prepare for accidents and illnesses that may require expensive treatment or surgeries. Many times our dogs have ended up in shelters because their previous owners were not prepared for these expenses and we want to ensure this never happens to them again.
We strive to know and understand each of our dogs so that we can work to find the best match for each dog and adopter.
Our adoption process includes an adoption application, adoption interview, meet and greet, veterinary reference check, personal reference check and home visit prior to making the adoption final. We reserve the right to deny any application that we feel is not a good fit for any of our dogs for any reason. If you are ready to make a commitment to one of our dogs please complete the adoption application and submit for review. The adoption fees vary based on the age of the animal: Age 7 and up is $250, Under age 7 is $275.
Thank You!
