DIY - E39 525i Fluid Triple Play (PS, diff & tranny fluid change)
This is yet another data point for the growing number of E39 owners who have replaced the "lifetime" Esso ATF. There have been a number of threads that I have learned from, so I want to give thanks to those who have already shared their experiences. The details of this DIY are specific to the 525i, so 530i and 540i owners should verify any differences before proceeding.
WARNINGS: * If you have not done a DIY oil change, please do not try this as your first fluid change. * If you do not have jacks, stands/ramps (nor know how to properly use them) or if your head cannot withstand the weight of 3400 lbs, please do not try this at home. * If you do not know that a running car in a garage without proper ventilation will kill everyone inside, please do not try this at home. After gleaning wisdom from those who have shared their ATF change experience, I decided that at 51K miles (bought my 2003 525i at 49K miles) that it was time to purge the lifetime Esso. Since I was not using fresh Esso, I decided to do an immediate second drain & refill, getting about 85% new ATF compare to just 67% with just the pan drop and refill. There are some folks who drove another 1000 miles before doing a second pan drop, filter, & refill that will get them to 90% new ATF. Either approach is preferable than keeping the lifetime Esso in the tranny. Since the differential and PS fluid changes require only an additional hour at most, I decided that a DIY Fluid Triple Play is the way to go. NOTES * The pictures were taken a couple days later since I did not have a clean third hand to take pictures while wrenching, cussing, screwing and moaning. * I used the term "no visible wear" for the PS ATF and the diff oil only in visual comparison to the Esso ATF, and acknowledge that the fluids could have deteriorated. * The times shown are estimates, not targets to beat. You are not practicing for a career at a 10-minute lube joint nor for a NASCAR pit crew slot. Take your time to do it right. With a sunny, 50 degree forecast for Super Bowl Saturday here in central Virginia, I decided to go for it. Immediately after lunch, I took the E39 out for a 10-mile drive to get the fluids nice and hot before getting started. After getting the rear tires on the ramps, and placing jack stands on the front sides (with the jack on the front center lift point for additional support), I measured the temperature of the tranny (126 deg F) and diff (107 deg F) pans. The fluids inside would be a bit too hot to work with so it's best to start with the easiest job, replacing the PS fluid. By the way, the car should be as level as possible when placed upon jack stands/ramps. The 525i has rack & pinion steering that uses ATF (Dexron III) instead of regular power steering fluid. The Bentley manual doesn't state the system's capacity, but given the collective knowledge of those who did the turkey baster drain/refills, one quart appears to be the magic number. The 540i has a different steering gearbox system. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_01.jpg Changing the PS fluid first allows the tranny and diff to cool down a little (but I didn't think of it until afterwards...I actually changed this last). Purists would want to do a complete drain before filling with fresh fluid, but that requires a lot more time and increases the risk of getting a leak in the PS system. This process mixes new fluid with the old, but that's fine by me since it's better than not changing it. If you agree that it's OK to mix the new with the old ATF, this is probably the most simple fluid change on the E39. Use a couple towels to cover the areas where oil is likely to drip, and you can save a couple minutes of cleaning time. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_02.jpg For $4 worth of ATF and an $8 suction gun, I probably save $100 compared to a dealer job. Then again, I might have extracted only new ATF the 2nd and 3rd time since there is no way to tell... Now that my confidence is building, it's time for a slightly more difficult task of changing the differential fluid that also happens to be a magical lifetime oil. According to Bentley, it is a specially formulated synthetic gear oil (SAF-XO...cognac?) that is available through authorized BMW dealers. I picked up a filler spout with a 12" tube ($4) from Advance Auto that has a nice flow-lock device on the cap-screw. You'll need a breaker bar to get the fill/drain plugs out. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_03.jpg The 525i's differential has a 1 LITER (1.1 quarts) capacity, and dog-gone-it, the bottles in the US come in 1 quart size. I couldn't find M22 aluminum crush washers at the auto parts stores around here so I just reused the old ones. The lifetime diff oil didn't have any visible wear. After torquing the plugs, use Simple Green to remove oil off the diff housing. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_04.jpg Well, wasn't that simple as well? Two quarts of M1 75W90 @ $9 each, $4 filler spout, $12 for the 18" breaker bar, $10 for a set of 3 large hex bits amount to a grand total of $44 for a job that a dealer might charge $150 for. The savings are adding up and paying for new tools. I even got to dust off my seldom used torque wrench for this job. OK, my confidence is way up to the point of feeling like the 18-0 Patriots as a 14 point favorite in the Super Bowl. It is now time to do the tranny! Unlike the PS and diff fluid changes that are very straight forward, draining and dropping the tranny sump pan is quite a bit more involved. The 525i steptronic has the ZF 5HP19 transmission (aka A5S 325Z) that is filled at the factory with a lifetime Esso ATF. If you decided to change the ATF, you probably don't believe in the tooth fairy either. To be absolutely sure that you have the 5HP19, you should check the stamped GREEN metal label on the back of the tranny. You will need a towel to wipe off the crud on the label. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_14.jpg I've divvied up the ATF change into two separate processes: 1) Pan drop and reinstallation, and 2) ATF fill. Having the right tools makes the pan drop job much easier. Wally carries a large rectangular oil drain pan for ~$6, and I highly recommend getting an electric screwdriver with a clutch (Black & Decker $20 @ HD). Repeat after me: I will get a high-grade T-27 socket and driver bit, and not a combo bit that will waste an hour of my time by stripping the pan bolt. BMW parts you will need (crownauto.com): PN 24 34 1 423 376 - OEM Filter (Filtran) - $18.92 PN 24 10 1 423 380 - OEM Gasket (green paper) - $10.66 PN 24 10 1 423 273 - T-27 bolts with spring washer (order at least 4 extra) - <$1 each http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_05.jpg Wait, there's more. A magnetic dish to hold (22) pan bolts will keep them from rolling throughout the garage as they are removed. The optional (in my case, mandatory) drill with a 7/32 bit and vice grip for removing stripped pan bolts. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_06.jpg Some of the other posts recommended the purchase of an overpriced Snap-On stubby 8mm hex. However, another benefit to owning a 525i is that there is just enough clearance to use a regular 8mm hex bit, 3/8-1/2 drive adapter, and a breaker bar. Thus, 525i owners do not have to kill themselves trying to loosen the Fill Plug with just a ratchet. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_07.jpg http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_08.jpg Before we get started with dropping the tranny pan, here's a quick change of scenery to get the adrenaline flowing. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_09.jpg I had two objectives: 1) Don't make a mess, and 2) Don't strip any of the (22) T-27 pan bolts. In step #4, be careful in loosening the T-27 pan bolts with the ratchet. Even with great care, I ruined the T-27 socket tip, stripped two bolts, and spent an hour trying to remove them. Ultimately, I drilled them out and used a vice grip to remove the bolts. So much for a perfect 19-0. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_10.jpg I'm in the home stretch, and it's time to fill the tranny. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_11.jpg If you use jack stands in the rear of the car, keeping your foot on the brake when running the tranny through the gears will keep the wheels from spinning. Allowing the wheels to spin without a load will trigger your DSC, and more importantly, be hazardous to anyone standing around the vehicle. Keep checking for leaks around the gasket whenever you crawl under the vehicle. Tighten the bolts where you see oil seeping along the pan seal and around the pan bolts. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_13.jpg Since I haven't put too many miles on the car, I couldn't really tell if the tranny is performing better. However, I definitely feel better knowing that I no longer have gray Esso and filthy magnets in the tranny. For less than $80 in fluids/parts and $150 worth of new tools in my garage, I easily saved $400-700 on the ATF change and knowing that I did the job properly. Well, that's all folks, and enjoy the Bean in Chicago's Millennium Park! http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/g...nge/3FC_12.jpg |
nice DIY...i love the eye catching graphics, lol...you should ask the mods to add this to the DIY section as well! =)
Nice man! Great DIY write-up you put a lot of time and effort into helping fellow bimmerfesters!
After reading posts on changing the diff oil and PS ATF, I decided that a new thread incorporating the best pactices from other 'festers would be useful. |
Awesome writeup for us 525ers!!
So when are you doing mine? :D:D |
Get your parts and supplies ready, and I can bring over any tools that you don't have. With four hands, we can knock this out in three hours. PM me if you're interested, neighbor. |
Actually, I'm thinking of doing the VANOS gasket repair. Have any interest in that? |
Excellent write-up!
This should be put up in the DIY section FOR SURE! Thanks again! Jason |
Just want to say thanks Riro...just finished doing mine with no issues.
Bull |
Bull, you're welcome!
For the purpose of data collection:
1) MaxLife and RP 75-90 2) I'm going to wait on the second drain and refill (still trying to decide to go synthetic...and what kind) For those interested...have 79K on my 03 525i. Got the trans filter from Napa for $35 and the Maxlife from Wally World for 3.58/qtr. The RP diff oil cost me $12/qtr. I bought a hand pump from Autozone for 10. Already had the other tools...so I spent approx $95 for doing the differential, trans and power steering. The trans pan looked great...as many of the other pics I saw...maybe even a bit less in drudge on the magnets. The fluid was a light clear darkness...almost along the lines of dirty water. I did not break any pan bolts...although I tended to overtorch. This is definitely a job for a lift if one can get someone to let them use theirs. Thanks again Riro...would not have tackled the trans without your DIY. Bull |
Excellent DIY. I think I saw a speck of dirt on one of your tools, though, sheesh. :rolleyes:
:bigpimp: j/k |
Great write up! Does anyone know what fluids I should use for a 02 530? I don't have the trany code right now but can get it soon.
http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=166135 |
Thanks for the link. I have read that and did not know that the trans were the same. I also have a 00 323 that needs to have the trans fluid changed. I could not find any fluids that are specific to that trans. Any more help here?

According to the attached chart, your 323i E46 has the GM5 (A5S360R) tranny that uses TEXACO ETL 7045E (another lifetime fluid). Here's another DIY with plenty of pics for a 2000 528iT that has the same tranny as the 323i:
http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=239968 |
Thanks for the info and the links. I have gone through all of them and I'm going with the ZF fluid from VW for my 530. I know it's not as cheap as the other stuff but I think it will give me the warm fuzzy feeling knowing that the right stuff is in there. From what I understand ZF builds both BMW and VW-Audi trans and they both use the "life time" fluid. I know in the VW product over time they will have valve body issues if you don't keep them up.
As for my 323 I want to know two things. 1. Does anyone know the best place to buy the Texaco fluid? 2. I there any VW fluid that will work in my trans? I get a good discount but this stuff is still going to be expensive. I can get the ZF fluid for about $14.00/Lt. If I'm heading down the wrong path with any of these ideas let me know. I have worked in the car biz for years but still trust all of your opinions. |
Others have used the VW Esso ATF in their ZF trannies so you should be fine.
As for your 323, you should visit the E46 boards, search using "ATF," and find a number of threads where you will get much better response to your questions that I cannot answer. |
Great DIY man. I have a 1994 325i what oil should I use in the diff??
http://www.pelicanparts.com/bmw/tech...Diff-Fluid.htm What brand to use will be your biggest decision. You'll find other threads about ATF and gear oil brands that border on religion (that I chose to avoid in this thread). :yikes: |
Just wondering
Is the Maxlife OK for our ZF tranny? I have seen people here are very careful about fluid being used on their ZF tranny (including me). I just spent $15 x 5 quarts = $75 on the Esso LT fluid only (from Bavauto.com)
Thank you!
Oh! this is a totally new piece of information for me. I would have gone the cheap route, if I knew this earlier. Anyway, $50 more for piece of mind is not too bad. Will have to do a 2nd drain / refill though - I will plan to do this in about 1km after the 1st pan-drop.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Health, Mental, Sleep"Just one more minute" Those words are like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Oh. I suppose that expression is going to have to go the way of the slide projector. Do they even have chalk boards in the schools anymore? I utter those words almost everyday. Today I did it at 1:54am. I was awake enough to get up and work. But noooo. I was compelled to take just one more minute From 2am-6am I could have made huge coding progress! Of course, the New York Times reported people are 33% more creative after sleep. To prove the point, that problem which had me stumped at midnight has already been solved.

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — Every time Kansas State went to the line for a pair of foul shots in the second half against Mississippi, it seemed as if the Wildcats would make one and miss one.
Make one, miss one. Swish one, clank one.
Good thing that the biggest shot of the game came from beyond the arc, where freshman Marcus Foster drained a 3-pointer in the closing seconds Thursday night. It gave the Wildcats a bit of a cushion, and when Marshall Henderson's go-ahead 3-point try with 2 seconds left missed everything, Kansas State escaped with a 61-58 victory in the Big 12-SEC Challenge.
"My teammates just told me to be confident, control what I could control," said Foster, who finished with 15 points. "I knew I was going to hit it. It was a real big shot."
HOOPS: Is likely No. 1 ready for test?
Made all the bigger by the struggles form the foul line, where Kansas State was 19 of 34.
"This was about gut-check, making some plays," Kansas State coach Bruce Weber said. "Marcus's 3 in the corner was huge. ... I'm just happy we fought it out to get a win."
Thomas Gipson also had 15 points and freshman Wesley Iwundu had 10, including a free throw after Henderson's missed 3 that sealed the Wildcats' first win over Mississippi (6-1) in five tries.
Henderson, the flamboyant guard who dazzled in last year's NCAA tournament, finished with 13 points but was just 4 of 18 from the field and 2 of 13 from beyond the arc.
Jarvis Summers led the Rebels with 18 points.
"We played good, we just didn't make a couple plays at the end," Summers said. "Our focus just wasn't all the way locked in."
Neither team led by more than five points the entire way, and it remained tense in the closing seconds. Henderson's fade-away 3-pointer with 28.8 seconds left got the Rebels within 59-58, but Will Spradling made one of two free throws to give Kansas State a cushion.
Ole Miss raced the ball up court, and Derrick Millinghaus got the ball in the hands of Henderson, who let go with a tightly guarded 3-pointer from the wing that missed everything.
By the time Iwundu was fouled after the rebound, the Wildcats were already celebrating.
"We made the read to get him the ball," Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said. "I was hoping again, based on the rules, try to put some pressure on the rim and get a foul. He opted to take a hard shot and all night they weren't falling for him."
The Wildcats led most of the first half, despite committing nine turnovers, thanks to an ability to break the Rebels' full-court pressure and their dominance of the boards.
Meanwhile, Ole Miss struggled with foul trouble. Post players Anthony Perez, Aaron Jones and Demarco Cox each picked up a pair of fouls shortly after the midway point of the half, forcing coach Andy Kennedy to use some unique substitution patterns just to get to the break.
Summers' basket just before the buzzer got the Rebels within 31-29 at the break.
The game remained tight throughout the second half, neither team able to create much separation. For the Wildcats, it was lousy foul shooting that prevented them from pulling away, and for Ole Miss it was miserable shooting from the perimeter that kept it from establishing a lead.
Henderson, who missed his first seven 3-point attempts, finally connected from deep with 5:37 left to knot the game 49-all. Sebastian Saiz's putback and Cox's basket in the paint gave the Rebels a four-point lead, their biggest to that point in the game.
The Wildcats slowly regained the lead from the foul line, despite making one of two on just about every trip, and Foster's 3-pointer with 1:22 remaining gave them a 57-3 lead.
Jones answered with a putback at the other end for Ole Miss, and Shane Southwell was there to pick up a loose ball and scoop in a basket for Kansas State to restore a 59-55 lead with 36 seconds left. Henderson hit his 3 moments later, setting up a tense stretch run.
"We made some strides and I think we grew up," Weber said. "We talked a lot about toughness. We've talked a lot about gut-check. We've talked a lot about roles. It's a big win, obviously. In the big picture, you beat a very, very good team that's going to win a lot of games."

"Presidential Decisions & the Role of Leadership in the 2012 Elections"
FROM THIS POST | Objectivity is a tough gig, especially once you've seen it all. Since BOB WOODWARD, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and associate editor of the Washington Post, made his name as one of the re-porters breaking the Watergate scandal, he has inarguably become an American icon, penning 16 books and countless articles on insider politics and helping to give the profession of investigative journalism a dose of nobility and celebrity. Yet he is not without his own negative appraisals — the late critic Christopher Hitchens derided him for practicing reciprocity-based "access journalism," and Woodward's four-volume Bush at War series can, in retrospect, be seen as a sort of mouthpiece for the president's false claims that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. Critics have noted that his latest book, The Price of Politics, which tackles the debt-ceiling debates of 2011, betrays some weirdly ideological conduct, dressing down President Obama for his "failure to lead" the issue of tax revenue legislation past a wall of intransigent Tea Partiers, which in turn prompted Mitt Romney to use Woodward as a shill for his own campaign. Regardless, as former presidential advisor David Gergen has written in his 2000 memoir, there's no disputing the fact that Woodward has been "a force for keeping the government honest." His lecture, titled "PRESIDENTIAL DECISIONS AND THE ROLE OF LEADERSHIP IN THE 2012 ELECTIONS," will be at USM's Hannaford Lecture Hall in the Portland campus's Abromson Center on Bedford St. 7:30 pm, $20 ($10 students). 207.780.4714.

did you adjust the valves on the new engine? if so they are to tight. I would guess you over tightened a couple and when it warms up its opening the valves up. if you do it again do it running, back off the nut till the rocker starts to "rattle" then tighten it down slowly till it quits then give it another 1/4 turn. do that on all 16 and you should be fine.

I looked on Amazon and the subscription was around $250 and I believe that was for just 6 issues…my eyes just about popped out of my head! There is no way I am paying that amount. I know there has got to be a way for me to get my hands on that magazine without going broke.

Hello, I recently became enamored with Australian magazines as well. You might want to check out the web site 'stonehouse publications'. Give it a google.

Try this link:
She's an American online store that specializes in Australian patterns and books. I love to look through her site. I'm not sure how much she charges for each magazine - I think I saw one time that they were $18 or $19?

why should it not be useful ? However to comment on a specific saw we would need to know more about it And a few pics would help. If you're asking about ras saws in general they are very good for many features but ripping although they say you can do this I would not advise it let us klnow more.Alistair -- excuse my typing as I have a form of parkinsons disease |

Assuming you are talking about a DeWalt? Some people swear by the name, I personally use other brands, but generally speaking radial arm saws do have a purpose.

I have one and love it, its an older model Craftsman and it is a pretty good saw. A lot of them can be fitted with attachments to one of the motor outputs and you can use it as a drill press and to make raised panels among other things. They show up on Ebay a lot if you look out. Like Scotsman said, you can rip with it but its very dangerous unless you know what you are doing. |

I have owned a Craftsman RAS for about 30 years. A RAS will safely handle cross cuts, compound miter cuts, dado cuts, and rip cuts…if you are careful. Every thing else is kind of a pain to do on a RAS. I've since added a cabinet saw that I use for ripping and some dado cuts. A sliding miter saw and table saw can replace all the functionality of a RAS. It's all about money, space, and personal preference. -- DaveH - Boise, Idaho - "How hard can it be? It's only wood!" |

I had a ras for years. After I sold it, I wished I had it back. There are so many things you can do with a RAS that you can't do with a tablesaw. -- Jerry--A man can never have enough tools or clamps |

I have a RAS and I have built it into my work bench (see my shop pics) and love it. It is not the best brand but if you keep it in tune it will do many things. I cross cut using a stop for repeat cuts, and cut rabbits and daddo's using a stacked set of blades. You can see what you are doing since the work piece is under the blade. I also cut half lap joints the same way and they are very accurate. -- St. Louis - just a cut away from finishing! |

I have one and I suprise myself with how often I use it to make larger crosscuts… -- //FC - Round Rock, TX - "Experience is what you get just after you need it" |
#10 posted 02-12-2009 04:19 AM |
Comparing a RAS to a cut-off saw is not all that great. Sure cut-off saw's can do many things that an RAS can do, but there's many things that an RAS can do that the Cut-off saw can't. I've never seen a cut-off saw cut Dado's, nor replace ALL the functionality of an RAS. Good Question – Chipster. ;) -- Respect your shop tools and they will respect you - Ric |

No matter I write this it's gonna sound rude. Since you have enough disposable income to throw down on a saw you don't have much of a clue about, I recommend you spend a few $$$ more and buy the RAS bible by Mr. Sawdust: http://www.mrsawdust.com/comments.php -- Better woodworking through old hand tools. |

I have a DeWalt 925 power shop and I will not get rid of it. When it dies I will revive it. I use my RAS more than any other saw in my shop. -- Brian, Lebanon PA, If you aren't having fun doing it, find something else to do. |
#15 posted 02-12-2009 06:16 AM |
I'm going to be the odd man out. I had a 10" RAS for a few years and hated it. It was too hard to keep it in alignment and it just seemed to be the quickest way to cut off your fingers if you were not paying attention. It was the only piece of equipment in my shop that made me nervous every time I turned it on. When I installed the sliding table on my table saw, I sold it. -- I don't make mistakes, only design changes....www.dgmwoodworks.com |

Why Budget? (Part 2)
During Financial Literacy Month, we're focusing on the important concept of budgeting. In an earlier blog post, we provided resources to get youth started on mapping out a personal budget. We offered this worksheet and encouraged every reader to fill out the "Actual" column for expense and income. Next comes creating the on-going budget.
Important guidelines
Check out this quick overview of how to plan out a budget. This rule, the 70-20-10 rule, provides a guideline for how much everyone should be spending, saving, and giving.
Now that you have that in mind, let's set a goal for those savings.
Use this worksheet with your kiddos to map out what they're saving for. Setting a goal is an important step in creating a budget, because it helps kids see the end result of sticking to their budgets. If they go over-budget, they won't have enough money to achieve their goal. This concept may be easy for many adults to grasp, but looking long-term is great for young ones to practice.
The end result
Finally, it's time to set the true budget. Use the first column of this worksheet your kids have completed filled with their actual expenses. Once they complete the "Budget" column, you can start a new "Actual " column for them so they can track their progress and success.
It will also be important to check in on a regular basis on the savings goal. Did the goal change? Did the price of the goal change? Did the time frame for reaching the goal change? If so, your kids may have to adjust their budgets to reach their goals.
Here are two more great resources to take a look at for planning out budgets:
We'd love to hear how your kids are doing on their budgets. Are these resources helpful? Tell us in the comments section below!

This is what I want.. to catch the whimsical -- that sweetness and elegance in being simple and bright. I want to capture translucent light that filters through gauze and the playful breeze that billows through trees. I want to hear my song sing itself in that way that only I can decode. I want to be female. Strong but soft, bold but subtle. I want to be succulent and warm to the touch. I want to be simple yet complicated, layered like a good plot in a book. I want to be something more, something else and yet be me.
I want to be this. Achieve it to be it is what I say but I hold back and I wait. I need to stop looking for the start gun to go off and just go.
I want my heart song... in gentle defiance of what people think it should be.

From people that you work with that don't quite "get" it to 8 children who seem to have lost their way in the path of love and humanity, it seems that Albert Einstein just says it best.
I haven't been doing much lately. My daughter has the stomach flu, I've been sick as well and work is well hectic. I am working on a series of paintings for my daughters room. It will be fun to share those here. I've already begun cutting out butterflies for the first one.
Slump, slump, slump, slump

I've been in a creative slump lately. This was my last youtube venture.

IN-Sen Video: Richard Mourdock Up With New Ad Linking Sen Lugar as President Obama's Favorite Republican
Posted by Flap in IN-Sen, Retirement, Richard MourdockIndiana Treasurer Richard Mourdock puts his most potent hits against incumbent Sen. Richard Lugar into one strong 30-second ad, which will begin airing today on broadcast and cable TV statewide. A disappointed-sounding older male narrator: "When Dick Lugar moved to Washington, he left behind more than his house. He left behind his conservative Hoosier values – voting for more earmarks, Obama's liberal Supreme Court choices, amnesty for illegals, even supporting a $1 a gallon gas tax. Now they call him Obama's favorite Republican. Lugar's been in Washington for 36 years. That's too long. Time for a change." For the next 13 days, this is the hottest race in America.
Here is the ad:
This is a tough race for Senator Lugar.
He may win a narrow victory, but I would not be surprised if Indiana nominates Mourdock. Lugar has been there a long time and some would say too long.

Greco-Bactrian Kingdom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Greco-Bactrian Kingdom was the eastern-most tip of the Ancient Greek world. It lasted between 250-125BC. It covered Afghanistan but also bits of Turkmenistan, Iran, Pakistan etc. It covered ground originally conquored by Alexander the Great.
Sources[change | change source]
Much of our information comes from the Roman Strabo. Much archaeology has been done in Afghanistan. In particular, the cities of Aï Khanoum and Begram.
Trivia[change | change source]
The National Museum of Afghanistan has put on a touring exhibition which has been to the British Museum but also to France, Germany and the Netherlands. Much other archeology is on display in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.

Brilliantly written and well thought out is this blog from Daman from India. Although the blogger only posts about once a month...the posts are very well done. One thing I recommend for blogs that post only a few times a month is to add a feedburner or feedblitz to your blog so people can get updates as to when you post new content. Nice job and keep it up.

but their nobles
Nehemiah 3:5
3:5 but their nobles. The one negative note in the listing is the reference to the nobles of Tekoa, a community at the southern boundary of Judah (actually the region where the prophet Amos had lived—Amos 1:1), possibly endangered by pressure from the Arabians led by Geshem (Nehemiah 2:19). It is probable that this pressure, rather than pride or sloth, kept these nobles from participating.

Yes, probably every single one of you has already read this wondrous novel by Kristin Cashore, and yes, it has been sitting on my bookshelves for quite some time now, just waiting to be picked up and that cover cracked. Unfortunately, sometimes, I know a book is going to be fantastic, so I'll wait and wait, making the book last a bit longer, for lack of a better way of stating my quirk. Basically I let them sit and collect dust until I just can't take it anymore. And I'm sure I'm not the only one who does that!
Anywho, Graceling was fanstastic, as you all told me through your blogs that it would be, and now I am one of the many, eagerly anticipating the sequel. Can't wait in fact!
Katsa, a beautiful young woman with one green eye and one blue, was born a Graceling, having been given a special ability that has made her into her Uncle's bounty hunter. Katsa was Graced with the ability to fight and kill, never wanting to use her talent for evil, however her Uncle is King and wants her to to his dirty work for him, sending her on killing missions to other kingdoms.
Filled with constant feelings of guilt for the wrong she has committed again and again, Katsa is overtaken with anger and hurt all of the time, not wanting to ever marry or have children, only wanting to continue her warrior life, if not for a better cause.
After meeting Po, a young man also Graced with an ability, Katsa begins to believe that she may not have to fight and kill for her Uncle, if she only would learn to stand up for herself. She forms a secret council, with the mindset that she will right the wrongs she has done in her past. She and Po leave her castle behind and set out on a treacherous journey, being forced to keep each other alive throughout their journey, and fall just a tad bit in love as well.
Part wonderful thriller, part romance, Graceling follows these original and thoroughly realistic characters on a path filled with danger and constant mystery. The fantasy portion comes through as reality, a rarity, and the amazing descriptions Cashore gives will draw the reader in with every page.
It is marketed to the 14 and up age range and I would definitely stick with that recommendation. Some strong sexual connotations are included, as is quite a bit of violence. Definitely a must for all libraries!
I read this for the 2009 YA Challenge.

If Malraux's museé imaginaire can be considered the theoretical foundation for the virtual museum, then the VIP Art Fair is it's commercial offspring, an "international art fair without walls." Entirely online, VIP (which stands, with less humor than perhaps intended, for Viewing in Private) is a web-based live event taking place from January 22-30, 2010 that will allow international collectors and art aficionados to browse galleries, speak to dealers and purchase artworks all from the privacy of their own homes. The website hosting the event, www.vipartfair.com, will entirely reconstruct the space of the contemporary international art fair right down to the VIP lounge, allowing participators to "visit" 139 galleries from 30 countries, among them heavy hitters like Gagosian and White Cube, who have paid for stalls in the virtual space. If Second Life is an online world for the ordinary avatar, then VIP Art Fair is a space for the Netjets set, those whose hunger for collecting art can no longer be quenched in the physical world.
We met up with Jane Cohan, who runs the James Cohan Gallery, based in New York and Shanghai, with her husband, Jim Cohan. With Jonas and Alessandra Almgren, a pair of Internet entrepreneurs recently transplanted from Silicon Valley, the couple has worked on the VIP Art Fair concept for over three years. The final result, which Jane toured me through, is a meticulously executed online replication of the now ubiquitous international art fair. "We know what the dealer needs, we know what the collector needs, we know what the art advisor needs," Jane told me when I asked her why her team was able to so successfully re-build the space of the fair in a virtual environment. "And we're mad. We're the perfect people to be Internet entrepreneurs because we're absolute idiots at it."
When the site goes live in January, visitors will find themselves in an atrium, where they will be presented with a map of the galleries participating in the event. They will be able to click on the names of galleries that they are interested in browsing, and be directed to a booth where the artworks are "hanging on the walls." They can then click on the reproduction of the painting (or photograph or sculpture, etc), and zoom in, giving them a sense of scale and texture. If they are interested in learning about the artist represented (during my tour, Jane showed me a painting by Roxy Paine that might very well have reched its full visual potential on the high-definition computer monitor), they can click onto a page that gives them biographical facts, video documentaries and background information on each work.
Browsing the site is free for all visitors, but personal interactions with dealers, who will virtually man the booths in real time for 12 to 18 hours a day, will be reserved for potential buyers. These buyers will be able to speak to the dealers via Skype, email, or on the phone, unencumbered by the distracting air kisses and toe stepping that characterize interactions at art fairs in real space. "It's our job to build artist's careers," Jane explained to me. "It used to be that we could create these well-appointed galleries where collectors could have the space and time to view the works. The wealth was more concentrated then. As it grows more global, our job is to bring the work of our artist's global. The art fair is one of these forums where these artists are able to grow."
Paying visitors will be privy to information such a pricing and availability. They will also have access to the VIP lounge, where they can go on virtual art tours to up to eight private collections, including one owned by a Japanese collector that is physically housed in a guest house designed by Tadao Ando. When asked if there would be beverages to accompany the virtual tours, Jane jokingly told me that the lounge will have free cocktail recipes.
The VIP Art Fair will no doubt engage raise skepticism regarding the feasibility of selling original artworks online. But the global art market has shown time and time again that quality and facture matter far less than pure commodity value, and I have very few doubts that the VIP Art Fair will prove that a table can dance just as well on its head in a virtual world as it can in real life.

Although he often returns to his native Peru, Santiago Roncagliolo has lived in Spain for a decade: five years in Madrid, then five in Barcelona. Tomorrow, in the Champions League final, the latter city's almighty football team will expect to notch up yet another Catalan triumph with victory over Manchester United at Wembley. "This city is a different city when Barcelona wins from when they lose," the writer tells me. "But, as a Peruvian, I love losers. We always lose! So I wanted my son to support the losers' team in Barcelona: Espanyol. But you can't buy a flag or a shirt anywhere. My son is three years old; he doesn't really understand football. Still, he wants to be Messi. So, please win - please be happy!"
Fond of the underdog he may be, but Roncaglioglo has hit something of a winning streak himself. Yesterday, his novel Red April – both an outstandingly gripping and eloquent political thriller, and a searching meditation on the blurred boundaries between good and evil, order and chaos - took this year's Independent Foreign Fiction Prize. He shares the £10,000 award, this country's leading annual honour for fiction from beyond the English language, with his translator Edith Grossman: a true star of her exacting art, at the top of her form.
"I can't believe what has happened with this novel," Roncagliolo says. "It was bestseller here [in Spain]; it made a big impact in Peruvian society. It's amazing what a book can do." When Red April won the Alfaguara Prize in Spain, it made him the youngest ever author to take that coveted honour: he was born in 1975. His international recognition also includes a place on Granta magazine's recent selection of "the best young Spanish-language novelists".
The book prevailed for the Independent prize, which is supported by Arts Council England and Champagne Taittinger, within a final shortlist whose five other titles all gained warm endorsements from the panel. This year's judges - Harriett Gilbert, MJ Hyland, Catriona Kelly, Neel Mukherjee and myself – had, more than ever, a steep peak to scale. Each of the five other contenders inspired and impressed: Alberto Barrera Tyszka's The Sickness (translated by Margaret Jull Costa); Per Petterson's I Curse the River of Time (Charlotte Barslund, with the author); Orhan Pamuk's The Museum of Innocence (Maureen Freely); Marcelo Figueras's Kamchatka (Frank Wynne), and Jenny Erpenbeck's Visitation (Susan Bernofsky). In the end, however, we united to salute the very special combination of narrative prowess, psychological drama and social revelation with which Roncagliolo's novel rewards its page-riffling reader.
Yet Red April's gilded pathway begins in mud, blood – and fear. It follows the fictional events of Holy Week in the city of Ayacucho, when bizarre and spectacular religious ceremonies are partnered by a series of gruesome murders, day by anguished day. This is 2000, though, and the vicious cycle of terror and counter-terror that set the Sendero Luminoso guerrillas against the state in Peru has, officially, come to an end. What is going on to revive the nightmare of slaughter and dread? Assistant prosecutor Félix Chacaltana, a high-minded innocent plunged into this still-bubbling cauldron of resentments and injustices, must investigate the case. But amid this darkness, physical and moral, every faint line between right and wrong seems to vanish.
To the reader of modern English classics, Red April's chilling, colourful portrayal of the frail forces of reason and order beset by revolt, repression and superstition may recall forays into the indigenous life of Latin America by Malcolm Lowry and Graham Greene. To those who know the continent's more recent home-grown fiction, Death in the Andes by Peru's Nobel laureate in literature, Mario Vargas Llosa, will inevitably spring to mind. Red April, it could be argued, digs deeper and strikes harder than works by any of those august excursionists.
Roncagliolo's father, a political scientist, took the family from Lima into temporary exile in Mexico in 1977. So his son felt the disruption and displacement of the continent's tormented 20th-century history from an early age. On their return, he recalls, "In Peru I was foreign when I arrived. I often feel as if I'm a tourist everywhere. The narrator of my novels is often a foreigner in some way. Sometimes, you have a clearer view if you come from abroad."
After studying literature, he took a job at Peru's human rights commission during the messy final acts of a peasant-Maoist insurgency led by the "Shining Path" that began in 1980. Two decades of mutual carnage were marked by savagery towards civilians by both the rebels and the security forces. "Both sides justified their own crimes and accused, as criminals, those on the other side who were doing exactly the same things," Roncagliolo says: "70,000 people died, and it was half-and-half, the state's and the terrorists' casualties." When I check these figures later, I find that – according to an official commission's report in 2003 - he's exactly correct.
As press officer and "image counsellor", the young Roncagliolo had the task of correcting and presenting reports on atrocities and abuses brought in from the ravaged countryside. When he fashions Chacaltana, the bumbling do-gooder, as a comic figure in a tragic place, "That was autobiographical, I'm afraid! Many of the things that happened to him, happened to me. That was my life. I had this middle-class, white, urban, university-boy philosophy in my mind."
Soon he came to grasp that the brutality of law had met and matched the brutality of revolt, and so underwent "a feeling of complete moral ambiguity". "I realised the violence that had been developed to protect me - and it was no better." Early on, he had to supervise a report on women who had been raped in jail by policemen, using truncheons. "It was so horrible. And my job was to correct the commas and periods. That was my first Chacaltana moment."
Yet, murder by murder and village by village, a hard-won peace emerged. Shining Path and its mysterious, charismatic leader Abimael Guzman – about whom Roncagliolo later wrote a book of reportage - lost popular support. Guzman himself was captured in 1992. On the other side, the authorities slowly began to clean up their act. Like dissident republicans in Ireland, the Senderistas continued in small numbers to mobilise – and to kill. Hence the plausible date of Red April.
The author recalls that, by the time of the novel's publication in Spain, "Terrorism was no longer a Peruvian subject but a Spanish subject - and maybe in the UK as well. It seemed as if the world was on my side with this book." Or rather, its resonances spread far and wide.
Roncagliolo welcomes the changes of mood and creed in his continent which look set to embed a pluralistic democracy through most of the Southern Cone. "In Latin America, in general, 30 years ago when I was growing up, if you were left-wing you supported guerrillas, and if you were right-wing you supported dictators. Now they scream at each other - but they don't shoot at each other!"
Could this progress go into reverse? Prosperity, he hopes, will safeguard political stability. "There's too much money for anyone to go crazy," he believes. "Looking at it pragmatically, I think this is going to be permanent - as long as the economy goes well. When people are poor, they are desperate. But in the past few years, for the first time, people in Latin America have felt more optimistic than people in Europe."
As for the twilit, disorienting menace of Red April and its world, "It was like a therapy. This was my war. I grew up there." But, he says, "the therapy's over now. I can move forward. The country can move forward too." His latest novel, So Close to Life, takes place in the Tokyo underworld. "I needed a big change of scene. Tokyo was as far as I could go."
Meanwhile – prizes aside – he's happy to eschew a public role and discard the prophetic mantle that Latin American authors of the Vargas Llosa vintage either chose, or were compelled, to wear. "His generation is more comfortable in that role - an essential part of their job was to define ideas." For Roncagliolo, the winner who loves losers, narrative will always score over polemic: "I feel comfortable telling stories - not in the priest's or philosopher's role."
'Red April' by Santiago Roncagliolo, translated by Edith Grossman, is published by Atlantic Books
An extract from 'Red April' by Santiago Roncagliolo
"You think we're a gang of killers. Isn't that right, Chacaltana?"
The commander's question came after a long silence, when they were already on the highway back to Ayacucho, between the mountains and the river. He was driving the vehicle himself. They were alone.
"I do not know... I do not know what you are referring to, Commander."
"Don't act like a prick, Chacaltana. I know how to read between the lines of reports. And I know how to read faces, too. Do you think you're the only one here who knows how to read?"
The prosecutor felt obliged to explain himself.
"We waged a just war, Commander." He said it like that, using the first person. "That is undeniable. But sometimes I have difficulty distinguishing between us and the enemy. And when that happens, I begin to ask myself what exactly it is that we fought against."
The commander let several minutes go by before he spoke again.
"Have you ever been in a war, Chacaltana?"
"What did you say, Señor?"
"I asked if you'd been in a war. In the middle of bullets and bombs."
The prosecutor remembered the incidents in Yawarmayo. Then he thought about the bombs, the power cuts in Lima, he remembered the night patrols, the ambulances, the buildings destroyed by explosives, the eyes of the police when they saw mutilated, bloody bodies that came out of the wreckage. No, he had never been in a war. The commander continued:
"Have you ever felt surrounded by fire and known that your life at that moment is worth less than a piece of shit? Or have you found yourself in a town hall full of people and not known if they wanted to help you or kill you? Have you seen your friends falling in battle?... Have you? When that happens you stop having friends because you know you'll lose them. You get used to the pain of losing them and simply try to avoid being one of the empty chairs that keep multiplying in the dining rooms. Do you know what that's like? No. You don't have the slightest idea of what that's like. You were in Lima, after all, while your people were dying. You were reading nice poems by Chocano, I suppose. Literature, right? Literature says too many pretty things, Señor Prosecutor. Too many. You intellectuals have contempt for military men because we don't read. Yes, don't make that face, I've heard your jokes, I've seen the faces of old politicians when we speak. And I understand. Our problem is that for us, reality is a pain in the balls; we've never seen the pretty things your books talk about."
Associate District Prosecutor Félix Chacaltana Saldívar became aware that he was considered an intellectual.

Finless Dorks....
Yet another weekend of being immobilised and unable to surf has me shooting my buddies again. Unfortunately the swell for this weekend has dropped significantly but allowed the boys to test out their new finless crafts.

I don't know what prompted me to start doing this, but I guess all the people that I associate myself with are pretty interesting, unique, attractive, funny looking, comedic, or wild characters. And I guess I thought for a moment that if I collected portraits of all these people and tiled them together or displayed them somewhere, it would actually look pretty cool.
By no means is this project anywhere near finished, but this is just what has eventuated so far.

Cleo Bachelor....
These are a collection of portrait shots I took of my buddy (and then housemate) Dale Robinson for his entry into Cleo Magazine's Bachelor of the Year 2010. Without being quick to judge, or categorising Dale as one of those wanna-be, male model douche's that enters himself into modelling competitions - Dale is not one of these people. It was actually some friends from MTV Australia that nominated him without him knowing but he still had to submit photos to the website for people to judge - and although he is officially not a bachelor now, this would not have been a bad way of getting his mug in the face of a nation of babes and possibly winning a trip to Sydney for a night of suits, canapes, booze and partying!

Silver Lining.....
I'm in the WARS.....! Plain and simple. Speared my front tooth out with the nose of my board, broke my fifth bone in my right foot plus I've got a doozy of a Flu going on. This has rendered me unable to surf and as luck would have it, this weekend has been pumping. The silver lining of this dark cloud is that I have been able to shoot all my buddies having a blast and regulating amongst the peanut gallery!

Catalogue Scraps...
It's catalogue time......! This can be both a great time and a tedious time. It's awesome because I get to go to locations which I wouldn't normally get the chance to shoot, and I also have the direction of some very talented and creative people. It can also be a drag having extremely early mornings and even later nights, but the end result is always a reward. Here's a few scraps from the past few days....

Palau Masokut - Mentawai Islands...
I've just returned from a 10 day trip to Palau Masokut in the Mentawai Island chain off the south-west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. I've always wanted to go to these islands to surf whilst I still have the ability to perform at a decent level. I also wanted to photograph various landmarks, people, seascapes that I wouldn't get the chance to shoot at home. We scored waves that you'd normally only see in the magazines, stayed at the beautiful Pitstop Hill landcamp and were treated like kings, we ate amazing food cooked by the local women and got to visit Malilimok, a super remote and traditional Mentawaian village with minimal western influence. I hope you enjoy....

I can correct part of it but not the end part of the intro tab:
The last 3 notes don't sound right but I can't figure out what they should be instead :L
Hi, the correct note in the intro is D - 3 and not G - 0.. IV FINALLY FOUND IT!
P.S the last tow notes are correct.
I am pretty sure I finally got this thing right :D
I'm pretty sure that's it for all the plucking parts.

Comment Re:Exaggeration (Score 1) 381
I can at least say that if I have the option to buy the generic, I do.
For example, I have a prescription for Seasonale. With my insurance (because Seasonale is a name brand prescription) it costs me $150. Now that there is a generic version of it, I pay $45. I prefer to pay the $45 to the $150, so I choose the generic.

Bath expect to have Matt Banahan, David Flatman and David Wilson back to face Gloucester on Friday; two more England players, the fly-half Charlie Hodgson and centre Mathew Tait, are due to return for Sale this week and the one after, respectively. Put together, that was a lot of talent missing from Bath's 31-16 victory over Sale on Saturday and it helped explain why the quality was consistently far from exceptional.
Not that Mike Brewer, the Sale head coach, cut his team any slack. The former All Black back-rower highlighted missed tackles and faulty defence in the backs, which others might have put down partly at least to the unavailability of Hodgson and Tait, and injuries during the first half to two more midfielders, Nick Macleod and Kyle Tonetti. But Brewer slammed a lack of proper technique and mental toughness.
"One of the key things I'm trying to install in this side is attitude and to never give up," Brewer said. While he is working on that, his side are likely to find Bath above them in the table.
The hosts had to wait for their late bonus-point try by Ben Williams, but they picked off their opponents expertly enough for three first-half tries by Duncan Bell, Shontayne Hape and Matt Carraro, before Williams went over in the second-half to seal the win.
Meanwhile, Harlequins earned their first league win of the season by scoring four tries to beat newly-promoted Exeter 40-13 at the The Stoop.
Quins' tries came from Nick Easter, Gonzalo Camacho and Tom Guest, while a penalty try also helped their cause. The hosts were also assisted by the kicking of Nick Evans who posted 20 points, landing four conversions and as many penalties, as his team earned a bonus point in the process. Exeter could only manage a consolation try in the final minute from wing Mark Foster, while indiscipline afflicted the visitors as yellow cards were shown to Aidan Thomas and James Hanks.
In the Magners League, tries from Lee Byrne, Tommy Bowe and Richard Russell helped Ospreys defeat Italian side Aironi 38-6 at the Liberty Stadium, while Connaght and Ulster drew 15-15 in the Irish derby at the Sportsground. Ian Keatley kicked five penalties for Connaght, with Paddy Wallace posting four for Ulster.

You are right on target Misty-eyed in everything you said. Forgiveness is a good thing and I was glad we did that and had some fun conversations. I read between the lines when he was being mean to me. I think I figured out why. I am just glad he warmed up to us and seemed to enjoy the interaction, especially with Ancient Wolf. I will truly miss coming on the bird thread and not reading his wit. I hope he is at peace.<quoted text> I didn't get all I needed accomplished. I'll have a lot of work this week. I noticed your post. I decided to leave several weeks before Christmas. Old insecurities and sometimes we just don't know a person on here. Una said something about giving money as a gift and going somewhere a sister perhaps niece's place for dinner. I could picture him chortling about his antics. He responded to me at times with an honest opinion from what I could gather. He wasn't intentionally cruel just allowed sarcasm to drift in sometimes. He enjoyed church services as well. Here and there he referred to his health. I think, the diabetes and heart problems just left him vulnerable physically so this was his past time. And you older Folks became his Friends. He relished the posts back and forth with AW. I think he referred to some of us as witches on brooms. The underlying current of a vicious ex wife was made apparent also. These of course are my observations and the mean little. Thought I'd drop in:)
I hope you have a peace night. Chilly here, 25 degrees, but no wind or white stuff. lol

The Competition Commission has ordered a fresh probe into allegations that state-run Coal India and one of its subsidiaries abused their dominant position in the market for production and supply of coal. The latest probe has come on a complaint filed by GHCL Ltd which has alleged that the coal miner and its subsidiary, Western Coalfields, had slapped unfair conditions in fuel supply agreements (FSAs) with the power producers for supply of non-coking coal.
A similar complaint was earlier filed by Maharashtra State Power Generation Company and Gujarat State Electricity Corp against Coal India.
After a probe into this case, CCI passed an order in December 2013 against CIL and imposed a penalty of Rs 1,773 crore as the state-run company and its subsidiaries were found to be dominant in the market. However, Coal India has approached Compat challenging CCI's order following which the penalty on the firm has been stayed by Compat.
"As the allegations in the present case also have been made by the informant in the context of requirement of coal for its captive power plant, the relevant market in this case would also be on the similar lines," the Competition Commission of India (CCI) said in a order released today.
"Taking into account the averments and the allegations made by the informant (GHCL), the Commission is of prima facie view that the opposite parties appear to have contravened the provisions of...The (Competition) Act by imposing unfair terms and conditions upon the informant," CCI added.
Among others, GHCL had complained to CCI that Coal India and Western Coalfields "had abused their dominance by dictating the terms and conditions of supply of coal through Letter of Assurance, FSA, MOU and the addendum to FSA by imposing such one-sided onerous conditions upon the buyers without seeking, much less considering, the inputs of the power producers and have thus acted independent of the market forces."
GHCL is engaged in the business of manufacture and sale of soda ash, a basic industrial raw-material predominantly used in manufacture of glass (flat/container), detergent, chemicals and silicates.
The company had commenced its commercial production of soda ash in 1986 at its manufacturing facility at Sutrapada, District in Gujarat.

new internationalist 133 March 1984
New Right (Nova dexterius). Origin: Recent. Habitat: Western industrial free enterprise economies. Background: Migration from consensus politics. Breeds most prolifically in selfish surroundings or unstable, fast-changing environment. Can easily be confused with the much more common conservativus, but its distinguishing characteristic is its preferment of dry country. Many conservativi are more comfortable when wet. Nova dexterius is quite rare due to its quaint mating cries and strange nesting behaviour (destroying much of its life-support environment in the curious belief that something better will grow). Geographical distribution: Australian Fraserorius variety now forced into hibernation. New Zealand brother species (Muldoonus) small portly, confusingly close to conservativus. Recently arrived is a Washington subspecies, which has migrated from the Sun Belt, is aged and slow-thinking. Experts disagree about its true classification because monetarius aspect (large government over-spending) not truly consistent. British and German varieties look strongest. Female of the species known for particularly raucous mating cries. Footnote: Immature species spotted in Canada and elsewhere in mainland Europe, too indistinct yet to recognise whether they display Nova dexterius plumage, mating cries and behaviour or whether they are simply other conservativi variety. Names of the three species (from left to right) which make up Nova dexterius with their mating, warning and other cries:
1. The LAISSEZ-FAIRE
2. The Greater NATIONALISM
3. The Moor SOCIAL CONTROL |
