Wrestling to Compete in Reno
After missing the 2009 version of the Reno Tournament of Champions due to inclement weather, the Liberty wrestling squad is making the trek to Reno, Nev., this weekend to participate in the event on Sunday.
This will be the Flames fourth time competing in "The Toughest Tournament in the USA" in the last five years, which will be contested at the Reno Events Center for the first time.
Liberty's best showing at the event came in its first year back on the mats, when Tim Harner placed fifth at 141 pounds in 2006. Led by Harner's finish, the Flames tallied 39 points to claim a 13th-place finish out of 29 teams. Harner stands as the lone Liberty wrestler to place in the event.
The Flames look to improve upon their most recent results in Reno, as the program slid back in each of their previous two finishes. The team scored 16.5 points in 2007 to place 19th out of 26 teams and earning 7.5 points in 2008 to place 28th out of 30 teams.
If head coach Jesse Castro's squad wants to improve on past finishes, they'll have to do so against some of the best grapplers in the country. This year's field holds four programs currently inside the NWCA/USA Today Coaches Poll, including No. 2 Oklahoma State, No. 6 Boise State, No. 14 Oregon State and No. 24 Arizona State.
Also in the 30-team field are three programs that Liberty has already encountered this season. The Flames have come across West Virginia and Chattanooga in duals, dropping a 24-12 match with the Mountaineers and a 26-16 match with the Mocs. Additionally, Liberty competed in the Keystone Classic with Appalachian State, where the Flames finished seventh to the Mountaineers 10th place tournament finish.
As far as individuals, the field is filled with grapplers ranked inside InterMat's latest top-20 national rankings. Eleven with that distinction are inside the top five, and eight of the 10 weight classes hold a top five wrestler.
With Boise State's and Oklahoma State's high team rankings, they come into the Tournament of Champions with six and nine ranked individuals, respectively.
Boise State boasts three No. 2 ranked grapplers according to InterMat in Andrew Hochstrasser (133 pounds), Jason Chamberlain (149 pounds) and Adam Hall (157 pounds), with Hall being an All-American after a third-place finish at last year's NCAA National Championships.
The Cowboys also have three top-five grapplers, led by No. 1 Jordan Oliver (133 pounds) who also holds All-America honors with a fourth-place finish at last year's NCAAs. Jamal Parks (149 pounds) and Clayton Foster (197 pounds) are each ranked No. 4 at their respective weights.
Rounding out top-five grapplers in the field are Joe LeBlanc of Wyoming (No. 1 at 184 pounds), Nick Amuchastegui of Stanford (No. 4 at 174 pounds), Boris Novachkov of Cal Poly (No. 4 at 141 pounds) and Arizona State teammates Anthony Robles (No. 3 at 125 pounds) and Bubba Jenkins (No. 4 at 157 pounds).
For the most part, the Flames will field a young squad for the event. However, four grapplers making this year's trip to Reno have been before, with three picking up victories in previous showings.
Redshirt senior Chad Porter (165 pounds) has competed in the event twice for the Flames, posting a career 4-4 mark overall, including a 4-2 showing during his freshman year in 2006. Aside from his collegiate experience in Reno, Porter competed in the event during high school, including a second-place finish during his senior year.
Also competing in the West Coast event twice is redshirt junior Julian Colon. The 157-pounder has picked up victories at each showing, producing a 1-2 record in 2007 as a freshman and then a 2-2 mark the following year.
Redshirt junior Scott Clymer (149 pounds) and redshirt senior Josh Pelletier (HWT) round out the Flames with experience in Reno, with each competing once in the event. Clymer went 1-2 in 2007 as a freshman, while Pelletier competed in 2008, dropping both of his bouts as a redshirt sophomore.
Despite most of the remaining Flames having less experience at the West Coast event, they have the ability to make some noise in Reno.
Redshirt freshman Seth Hicks (141 pounds) and freshman Royal Brettrager II (174 pounds) will make their second tournament appearance of the year after each placed at the Keystone Classic on November 21 in Philadelphia.
Hicks went 3-2 in his first collegiate tournament to place fifth, while Brettrager II posted a 3-3 mark on the day to finish sixth in his first collegiate tournament.
Fellow freshman Robert Jillard (125 pounds) will also look for success in tournament format, as the Franklinville, N.J., native came away with a first-place finish while going 4-0 and competing unattached in the Davidson Open (Dec. 4). Jillard also posted a 3-2 record in the Keystone Classic.
Additionally, Aaron Thompson (197 pounds) heads to Reno riding an eight-bout win streak and will look to make his mark on the West Coast in his second career collegiate tournament. Thompson's previous tournament experience came in 2007 when he went 0-2 at the Southern Scuffle as a freshman.

An Old Newshound Learns New Web Tricks
When I cleaned out my desk at BUSINESS WEEK 14 months ago to begin a long-term leave and finish a book, I was bombarded by warring emotions. My elation at the prospect of cybercommuting from a beachside cabin was dampened by the thought of cutting myself off from personal contacts and unlimited information resources.
The fretting was natural but needless. My need to stay plugged in coincided with the explosive growth of the Internet. My son, a committed cybernaut, had long preached the Internet gospel. But he had a problem: Pop was not a mere technological agnostic but a heretic of Luddite proportions.
COWPATHS. In the end, it was like giving up cigarettes or following a diet: I just made up my mind. And here I am, one copy of Peter Kent's The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Internet (Alpha Books, $19.95) later, surfing the Atlantic and the Net at the same time.
Who needs an umbilical cord when he has a modem? I use the Net to tap resources that seem without end. E-mail allows me to chat with old friends and colleagues around the world easily and inexpensively. Online newspapers and magazines add a periodical room to my cabin. For fun, I take a break with sites about music, movie reviews, cars, and travel.
The Net also has the power to irritate. It can be frustratingly slow during periods of peak use. Inexplicable snafus can cause an instruction to abort a program. And the Net can disgorge mountains of junk. I learned that the Information Superhighway was a bewildering jumble of cowpaths. I needed a map. Fortunately, all the big search engines (Yahoo!, Alta-Vista, Lycos, et al.) and browsers have organized the Net into subject categories that I use to point me in the desired direction. Other indispensable guides are iGuide and the Net navigator in the CyberTimes section of the online New York Times--two of my favorite sites.
I've spent 40 years as a journalist, so I'm a news junkie. That's why the personalized start page I've preprogrammed contains links to six news Web sites: the online versions of The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal, AT&T's LeadStory, NBC's joint venture with Microsoft called MSNBC, Fox News on iGuide, and the ESPN sports coverage on SportsZone.
The online Washington Post dishes up the best coverage of the federal government, plus good coverage of Internet exploration equipment (browsers, earphones, and zippers--those programs that compress and decompress files for faster downloading). The online Journal is not just my starting point for financial information, it's also the closest thing America has to a great national newspaper. Result: I spend a lot less time thumbing through newsprint. And since both papers are free online (for now), I save $47 a month in the process.
I use the Website reviews in iGuide and the many links in LeadStory to surf within a specific subject. And MSNBC's dual versions on the Web and cable TV make it more than just another pretty CNN-like face. I used the online incarnation's index to pick and choose material rather than shlep through the whole Web site.
NEW MIND-SET. Another road map to the news, used less frequently but still wonderful as a bookmarked backup, is the Web site of the American Journalism Review (http://www.newslink.org). It provides links to 3,700 online newspapers, magazines, broadcasters, and news services worldwide.
A special favorite is Wired magazine's online Hot-Wired, which demonstrates how the nature of the Net fosters a very different mind-set. The linear thought processes of traditional journalism are out the window on the Internet, where the approach is peripheral. The viewer is constantly beckoned to wander off course by clicking on links in the form of icons, graphics, or hypertext. This scatterbrained characteristic of the Net drives some people nuts, but I find it one of its greatest charms. You could say that, for this technoid-come-lately, lateral thinking rules.

Orleans County paster charged with abusing children
State Police in Albion have arrested a 70-year-old pastor on sexual abuse charges.
The Reverend Roy Harriger, Senior of Middleport is currently pastor of the Community Fellowship Church in Hartland. Investigators have charged him with consistently abusing two victims while he served as pastor of the Wesleyan Church in Lyndonville 12 years ago. This was from September, 2000 to September, 2001.
Investigators say crimes allegedly occurred in New York as well as in the states of Michigan and Pennsylvania as far back as 1974. State police in those states have been notified and are conducting their own investigations.
Harriger is being held in the Orleans County Jail on $250,000 bail. Troopers are asking anyone who may have been victimized by this suspect or who has any information to contact State Police in Albion at (585)589-4244.
The specific charges against Rev. Harriger include two counts of Course of Sexual Conduct, two counts of incest and four counts of sodomy. All are felonies.
He'll be in Town of Yates Court on December 3rd.

The 8 Ball 12.04.12: Top 8 Namco Games
Welcome to another edition of The 8 Ball games column. I plan on looking at some of the top Namco games to have been released, either developed by Namco, or produced by them. My own knowledge is a little spotty on Namco, mainly because they've been around longer than I've been alive. Never the less, I hope to include a few classic games as well as some of the later ones that have made Namco a recognizable name in the gaming world. Let's begin:
8. Dig Dug
Starting off with an oldie, but a goodie, Dig Dug was a pretty big deal back in the day, and people over 30 still have fond memories of it. The basis of the game is that you, as the titular Dig Dug, want to kill the various monsters that inhabit the underground levels. You do this by going around breaking up the ground, which can free rocks to fall on enemies below them, or by inflating the monsters up with your air-pump that looks like a whip until they explode. It's a pretty simple idea by today's standards, but still is kind of fun to mess around with. The challenging part comes in when you have a lot of monster's chasing you, or trying to line up a few monsters in a row so you can get a massive score bonus by dropping a rock on all their heads.
7. Time Crisis
While there were other light gun games at the time (or earlier), notably Area 51, Terminator 2, and Virtua Cop, Time Crisis was the first that actually felt like you were involved in the action. This was primarily due to the pedal which was used when you wanted to attack. Normally in the game, you're always behind cover (so you can't attack), but when you press the pedal down you pop out of cover and that's when you can shoot the bad guys. Ducking behind cover is also how you reloaded your gun once it was out of bullets. While Area 51 might have been a cooler game, Time Crisis was the game that really tried to evolve the light gun genre and make it a lot more player-driven then its brethren.
6. Eternal Sonata
This game seems to pop up on a lot of lists I make, simply because I enjoy it, and think it's a fantastic game. While the first 5-10 hours are pretty slow, the game just really spoke to me, as a good representation of what a roleplaying game should be. It looked lovely, had a nice story, a few really good standout characters (Viola and Salsa), and while it was a bit melodramatic, it wasn't obnoxiously so. The biggest problem actually is just that the main character, Polka, looks like a reject from some weird Disney-Anime fusion and has almost no personality. The battle system alone was very interesting and it kept you on your toes the entire time you played the game.
5. Tekken 3
I've never been a huge Tekken fan, as a general rule. My old college had a Tekken 2 arcade machine set on FREE PLAY and even then it cost too much to play. Just the five minutes or so of playing it was too expensive to me. Tekken 3 though, despite it being Tekken was fairly solid, especially on while on the Playstation 1. It managed to look better than the arcade version, had the same fighting action, and included two completely bonkers characters, Gon and Dr. Bosconovitch. While I think there are much better fighters out there, one of which appears later on in this list, Tekken 3 was still a quality game, even by today's standards.
4. Ridge Racer Type 4
While the first Ridge Racer (and Revolution) get all the accolades, Ridge Racer Type 4 is where the game actually clicked with me and I started to enjoy it. RR4 was a kind of supremely weird game to have come out. While Gran Turismo came out a year before and was the standard for simulation driving, RR4 came out a year later and set a new standard for arcade "fun" based driving. There were cool cards, well-laid tracks, an incredibly ill-conceived controller as an optional pack in (which I had, God was the Jogcon terrible), and an intro sequence with Reiko Nagase that is so Japanese, it borders on parody. Ridge Racer Type 4 was the high point of the series, one Namco desperately keeps trying to get back to.
3. Pac Man Championship Edition DX
Yes, Namco's classic mascot finally makes his appearance on this list. Truth be told, I was never really into any of the older Pac Man games. While they might be classics, the gameplay just never really struck me as interesting. It always just boiled down to "run around the maze until you get cornered, then go for the Power Pellet, rinse & repeat". DX changes the formula up though by constantly having the maze shift as you gobble up pellets, along with having a massive line of ghost's chase you as you start waking more of them up. Add in a rocking soundtrack, and some very cool graphical options, and it makes Pac Man the game it was meant to be.
2. Katamari Damacy
Coming out of left field completely, Katamari Damacy really took the gaming community by storm. It combined elements of hard-core Japanese culture (in a farcical way), inventive and addictive gameplay, and one of the strangest stories in gaming, made Katamari Damacy one of the real break-out hits of the Playstation 2 era. The crux of the game was just having the Prince roll around the Katamari picking objects up, making the Katamari bigger and trying to please your insane father, the King of All Cosmos. But the game had such a great style mixed in with such simple, but fun gameplay, that people still look fondly back on the game to this day.
1. Soul Calibur
This was the game that really *made* the Dreamcast such a cool system to own. Like Tekken 3, Soul Calibur's port not only matched the arcade version, it far surpassed it. Adding in vastly superior graphics, a new (fun) character, and a mission mode, made the game a "must own" on the Dreamcast. Aside from all that though, the game was just a well-balanced fighter, from the quick Taki, to the slow & powerful Nightmare, to the uniqueness of Voldo or Yoshimitsu, every fighter was capable and could be deadly against everyone else.
Probably the big ones that people will complain about is the absence of original Pac Man, or Ms. Pac Man. "Feh" to that, like I said earlier, I was never hugely into those games. I did like the Namco-produced Naruto games, but they cranked out so many of them that you just lose track of which is the best one. Also, Dark Souls didn't make this list because while it is interesting, it's too unwieldy as to be a classic game.
The big game that people seemed to say a lot about last week's column was Bioshock. Yes, a Bioshock movie would be great. It also would fall into the category of "They tried to make it a movie already, and failed" though, with the Gore Verbinski stuff. Saints Row 2 is garbage, period. Half Life would be a terrible movie, unless they actually had a mute actor play Gordon Freeman. Then it would be ok. There's also not enough actual story in the Legend of Zelda as to make a movie, let alone three of them. Although if they got Danny DeVito to play Tingle, that would be the best casting ever.

Branch Campus - A branch campus is a domestic or international location of an institution that is geographically
apart, independent of the primary/main campus. The branch campus is considered independent of the main campus if it is
permanent in nature; offers courses in educational programs leading to a degree, certificate, or other recognized educational
credential; has its own faculty and administrative or supervisory organization; and has its own budgetary and hiring
authority. (34 CFR §600.2)
Additional Location - An additional location is a domestic or international location, other than a branch campus, that is geographically apart from the primary/main campus and at which the institution offers at least 50 percent of the requirements of an educational program. (34 CFR §602.22) ANYA ("Approved but Not Yet Active") indicates that the location is included within the scope of accreditation but has not yet begun to offer courses. This designation is removed after the Commission receives notification that courses have begun at this location. ANYC ("Approved but Not Yet Closed") indicates that the institution has requested that the location be officially closed through the substantive change process. The location is currently included within the scope of accreditation but the institution will be stopping all operations at this location in the near future. The institution should inform the Commission (via email at email@example.com) of the date that operations cease. This designation is removed after the Commission receives notification that courses have stopped at this location and the location is no longer listed on the SAS.
Other Instructional Sites - MSCHE defines an other instructional site as any off-campus site, other than those meeting the definition of a branch campus or an additional location, at which the institution offers one or more courses for credit. Sites designated as an other instructional site do not require substantive change approval. However, substantive change approval is required to reclassify an other instructional site to or from a branch campus or additional location.
Distance Education Programs - Fully Approved, Approved (one program approved) or Not Approved indicates whether or not the institution has been approved to offer diploma/certificate/degree programs via distance education (programs for which students could meet 50% or more of the requirements of the program by taking distance education courses). Per the Commission's Substantive Change policy, Commission approval of the first two Distance Education programs is required to be "Fully Approved." If only one program is approved by the Commission, the specific name of the program will be listed in parentheses after "Approved."
Commission actions are explained in the policy Accreditation Actions.

It's Caturday!
Well it's about that time for another installment of Caturday. Here's my friend Marci's soon to be two year old baby girl Twiggy!
It's Caturday!
We're back with another installment of Caturday, featuring the nine month old Marsh family tuxedo kitten Oreo. When Oreo isn't sleeping he can be found perched on stools, claiming various other forms of higher ground, sneaking in to Mike's studio The Paper Mill in hopes of a song one day requiring a "meow" track, chasing twist ties around the wood floors, and biting my hands.
It's Caturday!
Caturday is back and features my tuxedo clad lady, Lucky. Enjoy!
It's Caturday!
[Editor's Note: We are pleased to introduce a special Caturday guest, Sandra Sanchez. Sandra operates The Individualist Feminist and is a regular contributor to Thoughts on Liberty. Despite her being a Washington Capitals fan, we are excited to welcome her as Spatial Orientation's first guest blogger.]
Although I love politics – specifically I love talking about liberty and feminism. But besides being a lover of liberty and feminism, I am also a cat enthusiast. Some might even call me a cat lady and that is fine, sometimes we all have #CatLadyProblems.
Allow me to introduce you to my little man, S'more! My Himalayan Persian is a grumpy cat, who celebrated his 11th birthday on April 24th! He enjoys naps, making loud noises while everyone is asleep, and rebelling against authority.
It's Caturday!
Today we are introducing a new Saturday feature here at Spatial Orientation: CATURDAY. Brad and I are both unabashed cat lovers, so we will attempt to post pictures of our own, as well as our friends's, cats each week.
Kicking things off is our wild savannah & white tabby mixed girlie Misty -aka- Tooncey (remember the recurring SNL skit Toonces the Driving Cat?)
We'd also like to wish a happy belated birthday to the Individualist Feminist and Thoughts on Liberty contributor Sandra Sanchez's cat S'more! Maybe she'll get in on the Caturday action someday soon (ahem!).

I owe a new friend of mine on the board a beer and so I was wondering if any of you other local guys would be interested in joining us? Just an informal "Hi, how are ya'" after work someday. I was thinking about Thursday, July 26 at JJ's clubhouse, 6400 Wayzata Boulevard Golden Valley, MN 55426.
Meet anytime around or after 5:00pm, maybe have a sandwich and a brew or two, talk about your rides and just shoot the breeze in general.
Please post your replies and let's see what happens.

engine specs
I have a totaled out 1984 corvette which I bought to transfer all suspension to a tri-five. It has a small block Cross Fire Injection System
Can I run this motor without the air pump without having to change anything on the computer and is this engine a 2 or 4 bolt main?
I would appreciate any help or additional comments on this engine.
That motors is a 2-bolt main with mediocre heads-if you can afford a new set of heads, I'd recommend it. The fi system is decent, and is in essence, the original tbi truck system. The weal point on that fi system is the controller, which is like a footpedal sewing machine in antiquity. We here modify the harness a bit, and use the later truck ecm and electronics, which work much better, and is much more tuneable. The harness is recycled, unless it's trashed, then we build a new one. remember, that setup can support 375-400hp, but will not tolerate a rough idle, so if the cam is swapped, it needs to be small, or the entire combo needs to be designed for a smooth idle.
You might want to check with someone who is into Corvettes. I believe that crossfire set up, while not what you would realy want for performance, is relatively rare and may be worth more than you realize.
You may be able to swing a deal for the later tuned port set up which would be a better driver.

Hey ajay, thanks for the add-on, works great!
Is there any way to modify the layout on this (or on xbmc) so that I don't have to go through as many menus to watch live tv?

you can add a TV link to favourites and then can access directly from xbmc start screen from then on.

If the YouTube link under YouTube channels aren't working, it means the YouTube has restricted to play video anywhere else except on YouTube.com.
Otherwise if the videos under movies or tv isn't working, it means the links are removed by YouTube.

Hi ajai,
thanks for the reply. Now i have got a another problem.
I am running XBMC on windows xp. I installed icefilms (Latest Version 1.0.11) yesterday. Everything worked just fine (movies and TV shows etc). Today for some reason I cannot access any of the movies. If I try to go into any of the movie sections, I get a script failure on the plugin.video.icefilms. I just removed, reinstalled xbmc-10.1. No go, still having this problem.
Has anything changed on icefilms, which would cause this problem all of a sudden? I need some guidance as to where I can start looking. What's weird is that when I first installed icefilms addons yesterday, it was working just fine, and then today I can't get into the movies at all. plesase reply.

Any chance you can add a dialog that says the movie is loading some of the videobb links take upto a minute to start to play, there's no indication its loading though.

Same issue no channel working here. Is it the same for everyone?
- zafiry89 - 2011-08-08 19:45
Hello Ajay,
I am new to this and I was wondering if you can explain something how do you add flash streams (ie. the ones that end with swf) links into XBMC? For example, how would you do it for this channel here: http://www.desifreetv.com/search/label/PEACE%20TV and this one http://webtv.dnt.net.pk/masala-tv.html.
I think you did this one flash link for Geo News but I am not sure how you got all the info: rtmp://live.dmasti.pk/food playpath=livestream swfUrl=http://www.f4funda.com/player.swf?title=DunyaNews&allowscriptaccess=always&file=livestream.flv&bufferlength=2&volume=100&bitrate=150&duration=99999999999999999&streamer=rtmp://live.dmasti.pk/food&allowscriptaccess=always%20bgcolor=white&full%20screen=true&autostart=true swfVfy=true pageUrl=http://www.f4funda.com/player.swf?title=DunyaNews&allowscriptaccess=always&file=livestream.flv&bufferlength=2&volume=100&bitrate=150&duration=99999999999999999&streamer=rtmp://live.dmasti.pk/food&allowscriptaccess=always%20bgcolor=white&full%20screen=true&autostart=true live=true</link>
How can I do the same for the Peace TV and Masala TV links? I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks a bunch!

I'm a former prosecutor and a current defense lawyer. As a defense lawyer, I would answer any such allegations of evil ruthlessness by pointing out how the ammunition is designed to be safer to passers-by.
As a shooter and someone who's worked on over 100 handgun killings, though, I'd tell you to lose the frangible ammo. Get something that is guaranteed to penetrate adequately. Read up on what Dr. Martin Fackler (probably the world's leading expert on bullet wounds in human bodies) had to say about Glasers . . . it was something along the lines of, if someone died from one it would be about three days later, from peritonitis.

Brooklyn Wedding In May
"This place was somewhat unconventional but FANTASTIC. The staff is super nice, it is VERY reasonably priced, and it makes people want to party! I have so many good things to say about this place. I was planning the wedding from out of the country and the owner Jeffrey was so incredibly reassuring that sight unseen, I knew it was the right place for the event. From there, Brian the event planner took over and was a total star. Multimedia needs, seating arrangements, I chewed his ear off about all this stuff and he listened and gave us what we wanted. Since we were planning from far away, we didn't get to try the food before we picked the menu; if we could've we'd have picked something else, but whatevs it was fine."

Winter Storage - Question
I store my '03 Zed usually from Nov until April of each year. She's fully detailed, gassed, and tires overinflated, and a battery tender put on before I cover it for the Winter. About every 4-6 weeks throughout the Winter, I remove the battery tender and start the car, letting it run for 20 mins or so. I let it get up to temp, and run the heater, A/C etc to get everything moving. Without driving the car, do you think I'm doing any damage by idling for 20 mins or so? My concern is that without driving it, it's not getting warm enough to burn off an condensation in the oil etc. This method has worked for me for years, but I just got concerned after reading another article about letting the oil condensation evaporate. What say you festers?
I took the advice of other folks on the forum to NOT start my Z3 periodically, specifically to avoid the oil moisture issue. I have, however, rolled it varying amounts forward and back every month or so to avoid flat spotting the tires too much.
Dang, you sure have me beat on winter maintenance.
This is becoming a consideration for me lately, but my solution may be different than those who live in climates that get more moisture than mine. We get snow and the cold, but we also only get 12 inches of total precipitation, which is mostly snow. While this year has been the longest I have gone without driving the ///M, it only rested for 4 weeks maximum before I was able to get it out to play a bit in dry sunny, but cold weather.
We do not use salt on the roads around here so I don't worry about rust too much. I just wonder if any of you have considered just driving the car when the roads are clear of snow and ice.

When the snow is off the roads of Wisconsin, they are still white with salt.....not here!
Likewise here in Minnesota. Can't really be sure of no salt until all the snow is gone and several good rains have fallen. Sucks.
In Louisville they brine the roads all winter no matter what the weather. Big tank trucks with a perforated pipe across the lane. Takes an hour to dry and makes the cars white. Then it dries to a white powder that persists for days. Then if it should snow or drizzle and try to freeze, the salt powder will keep the streets wet until the salt crystals can be spread. The salt comes up from the Louisiana salt mines by barges on the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers, right to Louisville and to the huge county salt storage igloo up the street from me. The salt trucks spill piles in every intersection, and it takes many rain storms to dissolve the moguls of salt. There is no salt free winter driving here.
Do NOT start it up unless you are going to actually drive it long enough to get everything fully up to temp.
More harm than good.
Just go sit in it and dream about better days. :)
Thanks. The weather's still pretty crummy here in Ohio and the roads are full of white salt residue, so driving it is out of the question for a few more weeks. Think I'll just look at it and wish for an early Spring so I can drive it again.
I live in SW Ohio. For me, there are usually 20-25 days during the December through March period when the temperature and the road conditions (sans salt) allow me to enjoy my Z3/Z4. I do put a little more air in the tires during this period.
Being that yellow jack is from Naples Florida, the car has never the temperatue below the frezzing mark. Now that I store the car here in NE Ohio up on jacks, battery out on a tender with a new oil changed in October going in storage and other oil change in mid March coming out of storage. I was told if you do start the engine during its storage period you should take the car out on the road and get everything warmed up for about after 20 min. so the temperture gauge is reach it operating temp. One other thing I do is placed a 100 watt light buld under the oil pan to keep the condensistation down, does it work? I don't know but it sound good to me.
Seriously, why would you change oil that had no running time on it? :dunno:
In the middle of the spectrum, some say that oil loses volume (ingredients) from evaporation, depending on a NOACK rating of volatility.
At the other end, there are those including BMWNA, who say oil can be good for 15,000 miles of running.
From what I can see, the NOACK test measures oil volatility over a period of time at high temperature and exposed to continuous airflow.
Considering that we are discussing undisturbed oil in an enclosed, sealed crankcase at low temperatures in the winter, I'm more than comfortable with starting up on that fresh oil in the spring and running it a few months until the fall .... :thumbup:
Oil changes more often than once a year on a low usage vehicle are wasting oil. Why would oil sitting in the crankcase "go bad" faster than oil in an engine being driven? :)
Jack stands are not a good idea, as you are leaving the suspension in an abnormal position, fully extended.
And temp gauge to normal is NOT fully warmed up. On our M Roadster and E46 M3 the oil is not fully up to temp for at least 5+ minutes after the water temp is fully up to normal. And then there is the tranny and diff. Better to NOT start it at all.
