This low profile window fan earned The Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it produced the highest air velocity and pushed the most air volume. Anemometer readings showed that The Best model produced 411 feet-per-minute air streams from 5' away, far superior to lesser models that could only muster 189 fpm from the same distance. The Best Low Profile Window Fan generated only 57.1 decibels of noise, the volume of a normal conversation. The Best model's dual fans are reversible and operate independently, allowing one fan to draw cool air inside while the other pushes warm air outside for optimal circulation. At only 13" high, The Best model minimizes view obstruction, its remote control enables easy adjustment of the three fan speeds, and the thermostat can be set to automatically turn the fan on or off at preset ambient temperatures. Fits windows 24" to 37" wide. 24" W x 13" H x 5" D. (8 1/2 lbs.)
"I like that you can reverse the fan to bring in cooler air from outside or blow hot air out. I use it to keep the greenhouse from getting too hot." - T.P., Florida

Beyond Expectation - Superb
By Catlin-Gabel 43
from Cannon Beach, Oregon
Far exceeds expectations from catalog description.But maddeningly has no screen to prevent entry through fan of flying insects. Virtually unbelievable design failure. Am having to build a screen system to remedy this - unable to install fan until this is done.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

By Hot under the collar

Best Window Fan
By The Old Lady
from Buffalo, NY
This fan is excellent and so quiet. I have sliding windows so I have it standing on end and it brings in the cool air. I will definitely be buying another one soon.

Great little fan!
By riggs
from atlanta ga
This fan is great. We tried many other fans and found them noisy and to have poor air pull. This fan is so quiet I have to get close to know it is on! Great that you can set the temp you want in the room. We use ours for the upstairs bedroom and we don't turn on the second control for the air conditioner unless we have company. Also a great price.

Worth Purchasing
By Lite Sleeper
from Illinois
This fan is used in the bedroom at night. It is quiet enough that I don't notice the fan noise as far as sleeping. I am a lite sleeper. The fan moves enough air on the low setting to be comfortable.

A breeze to install.
By Perry A
from Asheville, NC
Reversible airflow, thermostat control, remote control. Great for adding cool, night-time outside air into a warm bedroom, or exhausting warm air from upstairs room. Simple to use controls and installation.
Highly Recommended!
By Hot in the City
from Toronto, ON
The quality of this fan is much higher than other comparable fans on the market. We have tried them all and when we read "The Best Low Profile Window Fan" we knew we had to try it. They were not kidding...it is the best! We purchased 3 in June(Living Room, Master Bedroom & Guest Room) and we have only turned on our air conditioner 5 times in the last month and a half!

Good circulation
By wsks
from Lawrence, KS
This is an effective fan with two reversible blowers. It circulates air well. My only problem is with the complexity of the controls. The older model was simpler and better.
nicest product
By Marianne
from Twin cities
Installed in end room of the house and switch the fans a.m. and p.m. depending on temperature. Although there is no air conditioner in that room it pulls the air from throughout the house and keeps it cool always I switch the fans at night to pull in cool air. Great product

WATCH: Psy & Snoop Dogg debut 'Hangover' music video
Listen to Psy on iHeartRadio | Listen to Snoop Dogg on iHeartRadio
Snoop Dogg and Psy have finally debuted their new collaboration "Hangover."
On a special NBA finals "game night" edition of "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Sunday, Psy explained that Snoop Dogg didn't need much convincing to appear the song.
While recording the song, the two international superstars didn't even meet face-to-face. With Snoop in California and Psy in South Korea, they recorded their portions of the song separately, only speaking via telephone and the internet. It wasn't until Snoop traveled to South Korea to shoot the music video that they finally met. Snoop compared the music video to being in a martial arts film, adding that he felt like a "karate star."
Check it out below!
Since Snoop and Psy didn't have a chance to hang out during their 18-hour video shoot, Jimmy took them to a karaoke bar to get to know each other. Psy and Snoop performed each other's hit songs. Jimmy and Psy then grabbed their clarinets while Snoop took on the lyrics to "That's What Friends Are For."

Each winter, millions of people suffer from the fever, aches, and pains caused by the flu, a highly contagious infection. A relatively mild disease in healthy young and middle-aged people, flu can be life threatening to older adults. In an average year, flu leads to more than 200,000 hospitalizations and about 36,000 deaths nationwide.
One of the best ways to prevent flu is to get a flu shot each fall. Getting the shot every year is important because the flu virus is slightly different each year, and the flu shot is updated. The best time to get the shot is during October and November – before flu season begins.
Even though it's effective and covered by Medicare, most older Hispanics don't get a yearly flu shot. In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, only about 48 percent of Hispanics get the vaccine compared to 69 percent of non-Hispanic whites. Many worry about safety. You can't get the flu from a flu shot! In most people, the flu shot doesn't cause any side effects. A few have some soreness or redness on the arm where the shot is given.
To help you learn more about the flu and how to prevent flu for yourself and your loved ones, the National Institute on Aging (NIA) is offering a free fact sheet in Spanish. Call 1-800-222-2225 weekdays between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Eastern time to order Que Hacer Acerca de la Gripe. A Spanish-speaking information specialist is available to respond to calls. This and other Spanish publications on healthy aging also are available on the NIA website at www.nia.nih.gov [1].
The NIA, part of the National Institutes of Health of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, leads the Federal effort supporting and conducting research on aging and the special needs of older people. The Institute is committed to making health information available to older Hispanic Americans and their families.

Try the command:

hi, my probleme and this after startx (from USB and DVD) Fatal server error: no screens found I have tried all that that I knew but alone I don't arrive there, my material and: hp pavillon dv6 1200 sls + ati radeom mobilizes 4500hd, with bt3 I don't even have the possibility to give the command startx it stops him with the black screen, I have a possibility to be able to start bt3 or bt4, thanks
Try the command:
before you type "startx".
You may want to try searching harder next time for your error as it's literally all over this forum.
Here's the link for getting ati radeon cards to work (NON FGLRX!) with a sample xorg.conf.
If doing an lspci -nn|grep vga doesn't show something similar to this (Note: This is for my 9250 card which runs at 1440x900, your's will look different but should at the LEAST show ATI):
01:0c.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO] [1002:5960] (rev 01)
Then you're going to have to try messing with the FGLRX proprietary driver, or search google for your specific card and issues to get it working in Ubuntu
I may have been born with a silver spoon in my mouth but it does not mean I like to be spoon fed.
finally here is the solution with a command:
# startx
and bt4 ok
and possible to create an iso or USB with driver installed ati? is it as? thanks

Johnson City, Tenn. - The Tornados softball team hit the road for their first action since coming back from Spring Break, taking to the road against Milligan College on Thursday afternoon. Brevard struggled at the plate, managing only four hits in the two games in falling 3-1 and 3-0.
The Tornados fall to 10-6 for the 2009 season, while the Buffaloes improve to 13-7.
Game 1: Milligan 3, Brevard 1
Jennifer Gift (5-4) went the distance for the Tornados in game one, giving up five hits while striking out five. Her opponent, Rachel Ingleby, also went the distance, allowing four hits while retiring four on strikes, with one earned run.
Milligan opened the scoring in game one in the bottom of the first as Jessica Fix led off the inning with a double to left field. After Gift retired Mallory Tincher on strikes, Leah White put a triple into centerfield, scoring Fix as Milligan took the early 1-0 lead.
Brevard loaded the bases in the top of the second as Katie Brown opened the inning with a single to left. Katie Thornburg attempted a sacrifice bunt and ended up reaching base as the Buffaloes misplayed the ball. A successful bunt single by Beth Brooker loaded the bases, but the Tornados were unable to capitalize as the next three batters were retired before Brevard could plate a run.
However, the Tornados were able to tie the game up in the top of the third as Kristina Clayton led off by driving a single through the right side of the infield. A sacrifice bunt by Chelsi Mallory moved Clayton over to second. Katie Brown drove Clayton home with a two-out single through the left side as Brevard evened the score at 1.
Milligan responded in the bottom half of the inning. White reached on a one-out single and stole second base. Cleanup hitter Jessica Blevins drove her home as she drove a ball over the fence in right centerfield to put the Buffaloes up 3-1 with four to play.
Both pitchers settled down and kept the offenses in check the rest of the way as Brevard's Gift only allowed two runners to reach base for Milligan, while Ingleby allowed three Tornados to get on base.
Katie Brown led the Tornados in game one, going 2-3 with an RBI while White was the catalyst on the offense for the Buffalos, also going 2-3 with a run scored and an RBI.
Game 2: Milligan 3, Brevard 0
The nightcap of the doubleheader started up where game one left off as the pitchers combined to retire the first 15 batters before Milligan's Megan Heaton led off the bottom of the third with a walk. Liz Houser (5-2) dropped only her second decision of the 2009 season, going five innings, allowing one run, while striking out five. Her counterpart, Sidney Burns also threw a complete game, striking out 10 in recording the win.
Milligan opened up the scoring in the bottom of the fourth as Blevins was driven in by Tincher's two-out double to put the Buffaloes up 1-0.
Milligan added two more in the bottom of the sixth as Heaton's one-out double off Tornados relief pitcher Gift to straightaway center scored Blevins and Tincher to increase the lead to 3-0.
Burns, in the mean time, retired 21 of the 22 batters she faced on her way to a no-hitter with the only blemish coming in the top of the sixth when Maddie Fletcher reached base on an error by the centerfielder.
The Tornados take a day off before taking to the road again on Saturday, March 21st, as they head to Belmont, N.C. for a doubleheader against Belmont Abbey. Brevard swept the Crusaders the first time around back on March 5th, 3-2 and 11-1.

The Newseum, a museum dedicated to the history of news and journalism, just opened its impressive new building at 555 Pennsylvania Ave. in April. That's the First Amendment inscribed into the front of the building.
Its six levels are packed with interactive exhibits and small theaters. My friends and I spent about four hours looking at everything, but I could have spent another day there easily. Especially in the area full of historical front pages (as seen at right). Declarations of war, unthinkable events and tragic assassinations are displayed alongside incredible achievements, joyous milestones and other turning points in our world's history.
The section devoted to coverage of Sept. 11, 2001, was also really
impressive. What looks like a sculpture is a twisted chunk of the radio
tower formerly atop the World Trade Center. The walls are lined by front pages from Sept. 12, and videos show news coverage from the day.
The National Portrait Gallery is an absolute powerhouse and a must-see museum even if you're not well-versed in art history. With free admission, there's no reason not to stop in when you're in Washington. The newly reopened atrium (above) is pleasantly cool and quiet even on sweltering summer days.
One big highlight of the collection is the permanent "America's Presidents" gallery. My personal favorite was Norman Rockwell's depiction of Richard Nixon. And it's interesting to see John F. Kennedy's portrait is the only openly abstract painting in the bunch.

Mustang returned to confessed animal hoarder
By TAMMI KATE LEDFORD
A hearing to decide the fate of the horses seized by the Dallam County Sheriff's Office from Kerri Arroyo was held on Tuesday, January 29 in front of Justice of the Peace, Rita Little. Judge Little returned the gray mustang to Arroyo's custody stating, "all were taken for adoption or auction, but the mustang." The grey mustang was being cared for by a citizen who volunteered his assistance with the neglected animals. Judge Little explained that she told Arroyo, "You will be watched very closely." Arroyo picked up the horse from its fostered location on Tuesday, January 29. In addition, Arroyo was ordered to pay $1000 to the Dallam County Sheriff's Office for reimbursement of feed and hay for the horses. "Max Morris has done a tremendous job on this," stated Dallam County Sheriff. Bruce Scott.

Revision as of 00:01, 13 April 2010
The Ballad of Gay Tony introduces seven new weapons, and also introduces the parachute to the GTA IV era. The weapons from Grand Theft Auto IV are still available and the Grenade Launcher from The Lost and Damned returns. Like The Lost and Damned, the new weapons can only either be purchased from Armando's Cavalcade or spawned at Luis' apartment after completing a certain number of Drug Wars. Unlike TLAD however, the player can also acquire the new weapons by inputting the "Advanced Weapons Set" cheat code.
- 1 Thrown Weapons
- 2 Handguns
- 3 Submachine Guns
- 4 Shotguns
- 5 Machine Guns
- 6 Sniper Rifles

Thrown Weapons
Sticky Bombs (Satchel Charges)
- Cost: $800 per unit
- Carrying Capacity: 25 units
Explosives used to tag vehicles or objects for remote detonation. Unlike the Satchel Charges in GTA: San Andreas, these bombs don't stick to people. An explosive charge detonates when the player press down on the d-pad or shoots the charge. After completing 40 Drug Wars, some are sent to Luis' apartment. They pack the explosive punch of a Pipe Bomb, but with the ability to stick to vehicles, buildings, etc.
Pistol .44 (ÁMT Automag Model 180)
- Cost: $640 + $50 for each additional magazine
- Magazine Size: 8 rounds
- Carrying Capacity: 1,500 rounds
A new type of handgun. It is a high velocity handgun for quick and accurate kills. Using the .44 Magnum cartridge, it is more powerful than the Combat Pistol, however the Pistol .44 fires at a slower rate, and takes longer to reload at an empty cartridge. After 10 drug wars, one is sent to Luis' apartment.
Submachine Guns
Gold SMG (Uzi)
- Cost: $5,000 + $60 for each additional magazine
- Magazine Size: 30 rounds
- Carrying Capacity: 1,200 rounds
A Gold-plated SMG. Yusuf Amir is often seen carrying this weapon. It is given to the player as a reward alongside Yusuf's Super Drop Diamond as a reward for completing all his missions. It can also be purchased from Armando after unlocking it. The weapon has a high rate of fire and superior stopping power compared to other SMGs, however it is less accurate due to the weapon being fired from the hip and also only has a 30-round magazine, compared to the Micro Uzi having a 50-round magazine. After completing 50 drug wars, one is sent to Luis' apartment.
Silenced Assault SMG (FN P90)
- Cost: $6,725 + $150 for each additional magazine
- Magazine Size: 50 rounds
- Carrying Capacity: 1,200 rounds
A light, accurate, silenced and compact sub-machine gun. The weapon's 50-round magazine and accuracy makes it a good ground combat weapon, however, unlike other SMGs, the Assault SMG cannot be used as a drive by weapon. Certain NOOSE and FIB officers in The Ballad of Gay Tony carry the Assault SMG as an alternative to the SMG (SW MP-10) that most officers use in GTA IV and The Lost and Damned.
Explosive Shotgun/Automatic Shotgun (AA-12)
- Cost: $1,250 + $80 for 20 standard shells or $160 for 20 explosive rounds
- Magazine Size: 20 shells
- Carrying Capacity: 600 shells
A low recoil automatic shotgun with semi-auto fire to take down multiple targets easily. It uses either standard shotgun shells, or special explosive rounds (based on the Frag-12 explosive shell) which destroy almost any target. Standard shells are colored red whereas explosive rounds have a green casing. The Tactical Response Unit of NOOSE and the FIB use the Auto Shotgun with standard shells in place of the Pump Shotgun. After completing 30 drug wars, one with explosive cartridges is sent to Luis' apartment.
NOTE: If the player switches from the Auto Shotgun to either the Pump Shotgun or Combat Shotgun, the player loses any extra shells beyond 80. Also, if the player switches between explosive rounds and standard shells, the player loses all units of the previous ammunition type.
Machine Guns
Advanced MG (M249 SAW)
- Cost: $7,550 + $400 for each additional ammo belt
- Magazine Size: 200 round belt
- Carrying Capacity: 600 rounds
A powerful weapon that fires 900 rounds per minute, taking enemies down fast. The Advanced MG is placed in the Assault Rifle slot since it uses 5.56x45mm NATO rounds. The weapon's magazine capacity and rate of fire makes it perfect for engaging multiple enemies, however it is less accurate due to the weapon being fired from the hip. LCPD and NOOSE officers in The Ballad of Gay Tony use the Advanced MG from helicopters instead of the Carbine Rifle. After completing 20 drug wars, one is sent to Luis' apartment.
Sniper Rifles
Advanced Sniper (DSR-1)
- Cost: $4,750 + $200 for each additional magazine
- Magazine Size: 10 rounds
- Carrying Capacity: 50 rounds
Greatly increased range, rate of fire and sniper zoom make this the ideal long range weapon. Like the Automatic Shotgun, it can use either standard or explosive rounds, however explosive rounds are only available in multiplayer or single player with a cheat code. The explosive rounds have the explosive capability of a grenade in single player, however the explosive rounds are only as effective as Explosive Shotgun shells in multiplayer.
- Cost: $100
The Parachute returns in The Ballad of Gay Tony. Its steering system is the same as in San Andreas. It is first used in High Dive, and in parachute checkpoints. The parachute is automatically available in multiplayer.

A juvenile striped dolphin is loaded into a crate for transportationToday was definitely one of the most difficult days the Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians have experienced, and I am struggling to find the words to describe what transpired. A pod of 25-30 striped dolphins were found off the coast of Taiji this morning. These dolphins put up a good fight; the hunters struggled for hours to drive them into the Cove.
Once they were netted in the killing cove, the dolphins went into a complete panic and two were able to breach the net. Once over the net, they split up, one dolphin headed out to sea, escaping a fate of murder but now facing certain death due to separation from its family pod. The other dolphin, however, befell tragedy with the Cove Guardians bearing witness. I stood at the water's edge not noticing that the waves were lapping over my shoes, and watched this dolphin thrash about as he struggled over the net and came directly towards me. His fear was tangible and I could nearly hear him pleading for help. He then turned sharply, swam head-on into the rocky cliff and lay still in a pool of his own blood. I almost couldn't comprehend what I was seeing because my brain went numb and I could do nothing but stand there, completely frozen.
Two juveniles from the pod were taken away in tiny slings and loaded into a crate on the bed of a truck, more than likely destined for an aquarium and a life of oppression and slavery.
A dolphin hunter wears bloody gloves after a slaughterA Japanese woman approached me today and when I asked her opinion about the slaughter, she told me that she was against the slaughter but that this was their culture and she must respect her country. I understand and agree in respecting your country, but when it comes to hideous and barbaric displays of so-called culture, respect should be not be given so freely. Whoever claims that what is happening in Taiji is "culture" is either blind or drowning in denial. This is not culture. This is a shameful stain on the Japanese society; a black smudge on the nation that they desperately try to hide behind hideous blue tarps.
Spread the word. Raise awareness. Speak out.
Dolphin Base: From the US call: 81-0735-59-3514 or e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Here is your opportunity to become a Cove Guardian. To join us in Taiji (voluntarily, and completely at your own cost and risk), write to us at email@example.com. We will get back to you, but please be patient. We cannot keep an eye on the Cove and answer e-mails at the same time. Contributions to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society to keep our official presence here are needed and welcome. These contributions cover the costs for transport, telephone, equipment, supplies, food, and lodging for the official Sea Shepherd representative. We will remain here through the end of March and will return for the next season in September 2011.
Thank you to the citizens of Japan who are weighing these issues and beginning to take a stand to solve them. Thank you to everyone who is on the frontlines of this war. This is a war to save ourselves from ourselves. Without your calling and writing Japanese embassies and your own governments, there will be no change. Keep it up! Every time dolphins are pushed into the Cove, let them have it. Every time there is blood in the water, let them have it. Make good consumer choices. Inform everyone you know about the tragedy here and how it is linked to the captive dolphin trade. All who patronize a dolphin show have blood on their hands.
For the dolphins,
Libby Katsinis
Nicole, who will be assisting me during the next three months, will share her experiences while in Taiji on her blog.
Please support our work to save dolphins and ocean life around the globe!

While I am fully capable of building a login/authentication system in PHP and MySQL I have never actually stepped back and thought about the way I handle authentication on a per page basis. Generally I will just have a required file that checks for a specific value in a session variable and if authenticated allow the page to continue or if the authentication fails then produce an error.
I am running this on a Virtual Server so sessions themselves should be pretty secure however I am not convinced that this is a particularly efficient system, certainly not as good as it could be, I'm sure.
I don't think posting any code is needed for a discussion on this subject as I am more interested in the theory behind the logic involved.
So, what I am interested in discussing is how do you manage authentication on a per page basis?
Include a file which uses existing cookies/sessions to check authentication?
Utilise a function that checks the database using a session id or something like the users IP or similar?
Thank you in advance for the time you may take in producing a reply.
How I do it on a per page basis is dependent on whether the user is first required to log in or not which you haven't specified.
Terribly sorry, I thought it was implied, my appologies.
I have updated the original post with a more accurate/specific question, thank you in advance for any further input you put into the thread.
Evidently I cannot edit my original post.
Please note, I am interested in the above question in an environment where the user is required to be logged in on the specific page in question, as implied in the first portion where I am mentioning how I check if the user is logged in continue, if not chuck an error.
I'm not sure whether I follow "per page", what exactly do you mean.
Are you saying so some pages require you to be logged in and some don't or some pages require specific permissions to view?
The way my framework functions is kind of like this:
index.php (entry script) --> Include the core framework -----> Initialize the system (fetch settings, config, initialize the template engine etc. the global stuff thats needed all the time) -----> Establish a DB Connection -----> Handle user authentication (sets up the user be they a member or guest, grabs their permissions (granular)) -----> Fetch the bootstrapper for a given 'component' or 'module' (i.e. articledisplay) -----------> Include the backend classes for this 'component' or 'module' and initialize/process whatever it needs to in the pre process -----------> Checks permissions, does the page stuff or whatever it needs to do based on the rules for that module -----> The UI is constructed and outputted via the template engine.
So I have a granular permissions system so you have a usergroup structure thats something like this:
USERGROUP (i.e. member) --- Array of Permissions
PERMISSION --- UserID --- Array of Permissions
PERMISSION overrides USERGROUP, though they have the same perms. So the USERGROUP itself is the "default" permission set for a given user (based on the users group) but you have PERMISSIONS which is a per user override, so a particular user could be a "Member", but certain permissions are adjusted specifically for that user.
The permissions themselves are somewhat multi-dimensional, so you not only have linear permissions (using a forum as an example) like "view forum" and "post thread" but a copy of those permissions (in both USERGROUP and PERMISSION) for each individual forum.
So if you had 8 forums, 1 of them is only visible to members, 2 are only visible to administrators you can do that, or you could specify select users (say an administrator forum for two of your admins, who are the head honcho's or a VIP forum).
Then at the script level, each module has a set of permissions that are used, when the user is signed in, the permissions are loaded in; internally there are only one set of permissions (one array), which set depends on what exists (i.e. if a permission (custom) set exists they are used, else the usergroup default are used).
The module then checks the users permissions whenever the user attempts to commit an action. If the user doesn't have permission to do it, in a messaging class there are a bunch of "message" methods, one of which is "printNoPerission()", which is called. This stops the process and displays the no permission message. The exact wording of which is decided by a parameter passed to the method, along with a parameter of whether to offer login (in which case a login screen or link is available if they are a guest).
The way login authentication works is something like this (there are some nuances of my authentication system that are specific to my platform, logins are session and database backed, using a cookie for persistent logins):
The authentication system checks for a session and compares the keys to authenticate, if the login session is valid and not expired then the user is logged in, otherwise their login is expired and they are a guest.
During login the permissions are set, so its not as simple as "logged in" or "not logged in" or "member" or "guest" as the usergroups are both extendable and you can create custom groups. There is more to it than that, but I think that describes it sufficiently enough to get a "model" across. Of course how you authenticate the session, how you structure keys and how you prevent full authentication on a per page load basis (if you want to prevent it at all) will be system/framework dependent.
You can go simple and just use a session to maintain the users login, but for my framework its a bit too simplistic. Also there are a few issues with just doing that, it needs to be validated somewhere and hijacking needs to be prevented somewhere.
Wow, fantastic reply, thank you so much for the time and effort put into it!
By "per page basis", sorry for the confusion, I simply mean 'when a page (any particular page) loads how is authentication handled' as presumably any site that handles authentication will do so on each page of the site and generally speaking (as far as I am aware at my level of knowledge) regardless of what authentication is required to access a page it is still processed the same way?
User is unknown,User is a registered member,User is a registered contributor/moderator/editor,User is a registered administrator.
Page requires no authentication,Page requires member status - get authentication information, if user is equal to or greater than a member continue,Page requires contributor/moderator/editor status - get authentication information, if user is equal to or greater than a contributor/moderator/editor continue,Page requires administrator status - get authentication information, if user is equal to an administrator continue.
Or has that confused things further? Thanks again, I didn't think I was going to get any replys hehe.
First, no problem.
Second, what you describe there is a basic authentication and permissions system.
To answer your question:
The authentication will happen globally, so exists on all pages. Whatever mechanism you use for authentication will process everywhere so you will have access to your usergroup information for each user on ever page. Then every page can allow access or prevent access (entirely or to particular features of that page) based on the permissions within the usergroup.
How you authenticate will be dependant upon your system, normally you'd have some kind of architecture where you have a bootstrap mechanism that runs from index.php (no separate root php files for each page), within that process you'll initialize a framework that handles authentication. Authentication will usually be a combination of session and cookie.
Typically a user accounts credentials will consist of something like: - UserID (unique user id) - Username - Password (encrypted hash) - Salt (a salt value based on something account specific, for example join date)
The salt is used as a key against the password hash (combined they create a new hash which is what you store for the password and use to authenticate).
You do this on every script load to authenticate. Also you can have a session hash key which is compared to validate the session for added security.
Now what you describe is a really basic system and one I would avoid, you should go granular.
With a granular system you don't handle permissions as "isAdmin", "isGuest", "isModerator" etc.
Instead you have a usergroup table with more specific permissions, something like this:
USERGROUP (table) - usergroupid (INT) Primary Key - grouptitle (VARCHAR) // Name of the usergroup - isBanned (BOOL) // A flag for whether the group is "banned" - isGuest (BOOL) // A flag for whether the group is for guests - isMember (BOOL) // A flag for whether the group is for members - isModerator (BOOL) // A flag for whether the group is for moderators - isAdministrator (BOOL) // A flag for whether the group is for administrators
In other words, it creates the user level. But does not define what you can actually do, you should have permissions for this. Take a website with a forum and news articles and pages and a CMS. I'll keep it simple:
These are all Boolean, true/false fields. You can have other stuff like, if you have a private messenger.
Then the usergroups themselves:Banned (no permissions, is banned type)Guest (is guest type, has read type fields to true, others to false)Member (is member type, set to true/false for what you want members to do)Moderator (is moderator type, set to true/false for what you want mods to do)Administrator (is admin type, set to true/false for what you want admins to do)
Thats granular, your permission are details (like grains for each feature). It gives more control over permissions and allows you to flex your site/system more and makes things less "error prone".
You can then have levels to your permissions (different layers). Take a forum, posting rights. Most of your forums are open to thread creation and reply. But you have an announcements forum, which only moderators and admins can create threads, members can reply.
table:FORUMPERMISSION - permissionid (a unique id for the permission layer) - forumid (the forum this layer is for) - usergroupid (the usergroup this layer is for) - viewForum (BOOL) // Can the usergroup view forums - postThread (BOOL) // Can the usergroup post threads - postReply (BOOL) // Can the usergroup post replies - editPost (BOOL) // Can the usergroup edit posts (moderation) - editOwnPost (BOOL) // Can the usergroup edit their own posts - deletePost (BOOL) // Can the usergroup delete posts (moderation) - deleteOwnPost (BOOL) // Can the usergroup delete their own posts - closeThread (BOOL) // Can the usergroup close threads - openThread (BOOL) // Can the usergroup open their own threads
If a record exists here for a specific forum, this set overrides the usergroups permissions, if a record doesnt exist (for the forum AND usergroup - joined key) then the usergroups permissions are used.
So for the announcements forum (forumid 1) you'd have a record for member which disabled thread posting and enabled replies and view. This then allows members to view and reply to threads but not create them.
Thats adding layers to granularity.
Then in your scripts you would check the permissions themselves.
i.e. on viewing a thread:
if($permission['viewThread'] == false)
$errorManager->printNoPermission(); // Prints you do not have permission to view this thread
You should at least have granularity (in my opinion of course). Having built sites with granularity for so long, I cannot imagine going back.
Is this the kind of thing your wanting to know/get feedback on?
Outstanding, it makes perfect sence, thank you.
Absolutely. Basically what has happened recently is bit of a personal melt down. I thought I knew allot more than I do and it is recently that I have realised just how much knowledge and ability I lack in PHP particually.
I work full time where my main role is support work, anything from simple PHP errors to full HTML/CSS redesign so I have a hand in all aspects of a PHP based website from creation to maintenance. I also run my own part time business working mainly with small businesses and have undertaken the task of creating my own basic CMS/Framework to base all my client sites off of for speed and organisational reasons along with giving the client the ability to modify their site without having a massive 3rd party CMS and without me needing to learn how to modify it (giving me total control over my own CMS, not partial control over a system I do not know very well).
It has gone great so far, the system works how it should although not very feature rich at the moment. The sites I have running on it are working well and the back end is fairly simple. It was during a look over my current code recently when I had this realisation that I am actually a terrible programmer.
So that's what has sparked these threads, I have figured it is easier to start from the beginning with my knowledge and try to second guess everything I program with the intention of learning PHP effectively and grow into a competent programmer and maybe even switch career paths into a more programming oriented role as I really enjoy it.
I am really keep to develop my general understanding of PHP as a language, object oriented programming (I understand the principals but struggle with the implementation), theory and logic of PHP applications (I.E. This thread) etc.
Well good luck!
With OO, you should get to grips with it. If you struggle with OO concepts, even loose use of OO will benefit you as it teaches re-usability of code and code structure.
What I would recommend is to invest some time into learning how to put together a re-usable OO framework for your websites, one that works well for you. I don't mean a fully fledged CMS but a basic framework you can build off.
Like your core, auth system, permissions system, bootstrap system and template engine.
So you have core layer, bootstrap and module layer and presentation layer. Basically an MVC architecture of sorts. You can implement it how you like, the importance is that the "concept" is followed. There are various "methodologies" a simple google will reveal them.
I don't like the Joomla/Drupal styles of MVC, I find them too fragmented, I prefer a tighter approach, more like this:
That kind of thing., You essentially have one index.php, a class core for the core parts of the framework, bootstraps for the modules (I've seen these as classes or procedural scripts that access class methods), pure classes are stricter and more "correct", but honestly you do what feels best for you. As long as you follow good standards and OO practices throughout.
Then you have classes for each module that present the functions of each module.
You then have the presentation layer parts separated (i.e. a template engine), I use a bespoke template engine, others use 3rd party engines such as Smarty. Up to you what you use.
That kind of architecture is where you want your starting point to be, to learn that and OO will kind of just connect and click.
Thank you once again FizixRhichard.
One last question, have you ever used killerphp.com? If so, is the quality of their training of good standard, in your opinion?
You have been an amazing help, you seem to be able to talk in a way that invokes thought but is easy to follow and digest, I will be re-reading this thread a few times I am sure! The methods you speak of are not far off what I have, in terms of logic and process, I just need to bring the programming itself up to a decent standard and start planning an OO framework and start playing (thanks for the idea, love it!).
I cant express how grateful I am for your input.
Never used killerphp so I cant comment on them. But no problem with the help.
I would say to take a peep into some good applications to see how they are structured and how they do things, there are finer nuances to security and logins than I've described here. So its worth really reading up.
I use acl. So every content object knows which user/usergroup is allowed to add, edit, delete or view it. The permissions are stored in a database table (basically a bridge table between the user or usergroups table and all the content tables with an extra field to specify the type of content and another field to specify the permissions (add,edit,delete,view))
Aslong as my database password is safe the system should be safe And the login procedure should be safe ofcourse.
Thank you brense, it certainly seems like split tables are the way to go, especially with permissions. My current approach has been just a lonely value in the users table which tells me in the user is banned(0) registered(1) admin(2).
I used to use access control lists, in the traditional form (but backed by usergroups), something like this:
Tables:user(userid, usergroupid, username, ...)usergroup(usergroupid, title, tier, ...)permission(permissionid, userid, usergroupid, entityid, permission, rule, ...)
So your user would have a usergroup, (these I would create, what they were would be system dependent but normally guest, banned, member, admin)
Then you have the permissions table, which I'll explain: - permissionid is a unique id for that entry - userid is the users unique id (if applying a permission to a specific user, their userid goes there, otherwise userid is 0) - usergroupid is the usergroups unique id (if applying a permission to a usergroup, the usersgroups usergroupid goes there, otherwise it is 0) - entityid is the reference to the object or collection you are applying the permission to (this was optional under my system as perms could be global) - permission is a hook for the permission so you can reference it in code directly - rule is the permission value, normally a bool.
Now, that method works fine and it served me well, BUT I did find that on larger websites it lead to a rather chunky permissions table, adding new permissions would require writes or defaulting and it introduced an overhead. I started to just dislike it, so went for a permissions system in this format (which does the same thing really):
permission1, permission3 etc are just blurbs for permissions, they all had meaningful names.
user(userid, usergroupid, username, ...)usergroup(usergroupid, hook, title, tier, permission1, permission2, permission3, ...)
Then I would have an overrides table where needed like thisuserpermission(userid, tier, permission1, permission2, permission3, ...) // For user specific permission overridesforumpermission(forumid, usergroupid, userid, viewforum, viewthread, postthread, postreply, editpost, deletepost, ...) // For content specific overrides (i.e. forum)
^ that could be combined into a contentpermission with a couple of fields (contenttype, contentid)
ContentType being say "forum", "article". Would essentially be the module or class.ContentID would be the ID of the content (i.e. forumid or articleid or categoryid) or the node
I just found this more pleasant to work with and it was a bit faster.
But then how do you handle locked forum posts for example?
I find that it is safer (and faster) to have my content handle permissions rather then my users. This means i dont have overhead on my users table (or content for that matter). The chunky permissions table is no problem if you have good indexes. MySQL can handle hundreds of thousands of records with no problems. I never had performance issues.
But I can see your point. You loose track of your permissions table (it gets a life of its own). No human will be able to read it. But the system can
thread(threadid, forumid, open, subject, postdate, ...)
open is a bool
Then if you want certain groups to be able to post in locked threads. Use a permission for that.
I suppose I like traditional usergroups (as the base permissions set) with a content layer and user layer for specific permissions (i.e. forum perms, user specific perms) which override the usergroup default.
Neither do I as the system is exactly the same as what you mention, just consolidated. I used to use a traditional ACL system, I just wound up consolidating the permission data for easier maintenance and using layers.
This is true, but consolidated data will always be faster and easier for the developer to handle.
Which is fine, but for me, that introduced a problem when it came to changing the permissions tables, you could tie yourself into a bit of a knot when it comes to converting the existing perms to your new schema.
Anyway, its all personal preference really. Both methods can achieve exactly the same thing and be secure. If you can't make one secure you wont make the other secure.

Chelsea Handler's Hand-Me-Downs
Chelsea Handler has two things that I lack: blond hair and big breasts. She used to have another thing: Ted Harbert, President and CEO of Comcast Entertainment Group, the company that owns E! Entertainment, which airs her show Chelsea Lately. In Los Angeles, talent and a dime will get you ten cents. There are three unwritten rules to achieving success as a woman in Hollywood: one is dye your hair blond, two is get breast implants, three is sleep your way to the top. When I arrived here from Canada, I was too young and naïve to subscribe to any of those philosophies. Although at one point I did have blond hair, it was not Playboy blond with down-to-the-ass extensions like that of most Hollywood starlets. My breasts were a solid 34A on a cool day with a stiff wind. I was shot down at countless auditions by casting directors who openly confessed that the network would not hire me unless I had a 34C chest. I will not say which network (hint: small animal that makes for a beautiful fur coat), but I think that kind of discrimination is lawsuit material. As for sleeping my way to the top, at the time I was sleeping my way sideways while financially supporting my bartender/actor boyfriend who drank as much as he poured and popped antidepressants and Vicodin out of a Pez dispenser. That relationship ended well.
I recall buying every breast enhancement device from jelly inserts to some Victoria's Secret crank-em-up bra and driving three hours to an audition in San Diego for some cheesy show like Silk Stalkings or The Chronicle. The role was a Russian hooker, which I could do well as my grandparents were from Russia and I heard the accent my entire life. After I aced the audition, the casting director said I had a callback the next day which meant either sleeping on the couch at my aunt's place and going to dinner at some overpriced, mediocre strip mall Claim Jumper or driving all the way back to L.A. and back to San Diego the next morning. "Oh, and one more thing," she said as I was walking out the door. "They want someone with large breasts. Could you stop off at Victoria's Secret and buy a padded bra and crank those babies up a bit?" Sure, no problem. Couldn't she see they were already cranked as far as they could go? I was breast-fallen, I mean crestfallen as I said "Dasvidaniya" to the role of Russian hooker. From that moment on, I knew that without plastic surgery, hair extensions and the desire to sleep my way to the top, my acting career was doomed.
In the November 2010 issue of Elle Magazine, 38-year-old actress Gwyneth Paltrow spoke out about one of the industry's dirtiest secrets – the casting couch – as did Charlize Theron, Helen Mirren, Megan Fox and Lisa Rinna. Of course, none of them were willing to kiss and tell about whether the men who propositioned them actually succeeded, but it has long been rumored that Sharon Stone traded sexual favors to advance her career. Just look at the press Monica Lewinsky got after getting it on with President Clinton and tell me that Nicole Kidman's career didn't hurt from her marriage to the questionably straight Tom Cruise.
While I am not accusing the raunchy comedienne of sleeping her way to the top, it certainly didn't hurt her career to swap spit with the CEO of a major network. To set the record straight, Chelsea and Ted started dating in 2006 and were living in sin prior to the inception of her show Chelsea Lately, which debuted on July 17, 2007. Whatever Chelsea is or isn't doing seems to be working: her books are selling and she has a contract with E! until 2012 – I admire her for that.
Chelsea is one of my favorite authors. I loved her first two books, My Horizontal Life and Are You There Vodka, It's Me Chelsea? Obnoxiously funny, taking no prisoners when it comes to humor, Chelsea Handler is a total joke slut; someone who will go to any length for a laugh, even if it means berating her ex-boyfriend Ted Harbert (who presumably paved the way for her show) by calling him a "giant toddler" in her latest book Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang. Maybe Ted is a giant toddler, but if you're done with him Chels, you mind paying it forward and giving me his number? Perhaps he just got sick of you trashing him every chance you could and is looking for a more nurturing, appreciative woman. One thing's for sure, it couldn't hurt my career to date him.

what to do to my 5 year old baby girl
I have a 5 year old girl as my eldest. I just gave birth last June. Since the baby is already around and present to our family, my 5 year old started to act like him, like a baby. What should I explain to her?

It's not uncommon for older children to regress when a new baby joins the family. Some children who have recently potty trained actually regress back into diapers for a time.
Being that your daughter is 5 years old, the first thing that comes to mind is that your daughter may be feeling like she has to share your attention with the new baby. She has been used to being the "baby" for 5 years, and having all your attention.
Sometimes, when children are feeling this way, they will start to act like the baby, thinking "baby's getting mommy and daddy's attention, so if I act like the baby I'll get more attention too". It's not a conscious thought at 5 years of age, but can definitely be a subconscious thought as she tries to figure out her new role in your family.
If you can give some examples of how she is acting like the baby I'll be able to give more specific ideas on how to handle it, but in general, I would encourage her to take on her "big sister" role. Ask her to swing the baby, or sing to the baby while baby is going to sleep. Ask her to bring you diapers and clothes. Ask her if she would like to hold her baby brother while he is sleeping, or if she would like to play with the baby, and show her how to sit next to baby and show him pictures in a picture book. He may not understand what she is saying, but she will feel as if she is teaching her baby brother something new. 5 year olds usually love to play "school" like they are the teacher, they also like to play house, like they are the mommy, and if she feels that she can care for him in some ways, like mommy does, this will help her to feel valuable.
And of course, praising her often for her help with the baby is important and taking time to do things with her, when baby is not needing you. Bake cookies together, go for a walk with baby in the stroller and talk to her (have a conversation). She is used to having all of your attention and she now has to share it, so it's important that you recognize how much less time you are spending with her and try to make up for it in some way. Baby will most likely be around most of the time, but it's not so much spending "alone" time with your daughter as it is spending focused time with her - being attentive to her questions and teaching her new things doing things together.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Warm regards,

View: Sample questions sent to tea party groups
WASHINGTON -- The Justice Department is investigating the Internal Revenue Service for targeting tea party groups for extra scrutiny when they applied for tax exempt status, Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday.
Ineffective management at the IRS allowed agents to improperly target tea party groups for more than 18 months, according to a report from the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. The inspector general's report, released Tuesday, lays much of the blame on IRS supervisors in Washington who oversaw a group of specialists in Cincinnati who screened applications for tax-exempt status.
The report does not indicate that Washington initiated the targeting of conservative groups. But it does say a top supervisor in Washington did not adequately supervise agents in the field even after she learned the agents were acting improperly.
IRS offices in El Monte and Laguna Niguel also have been implicated in the scandal.
"The report's findings are intolerable and inexcusable," President Barack Obama said in a statement Tuesday. "The federal government must conduct itself in a way that's worthy of the public's trust, and that's especially true for the IRS. The IRS must apply the law in a fair and impartial way, and its employees must act with utmost integrity. This report shows that some of its employees failed that test. "
The FBI will investigate to determine whether any laws were broken, Holder said Tuesday, noting that he ordered the criminal investigation Friday, after the IRS publicly acknowledged that it had singled out conservative groups.
"Those (actions) were, I think, as everyone can agree, if not criminal, they were certainly outrageous and unacceptable," Holder said. "But we are examining the facts to see if there were criminal violations. "
The IRS acknowledged that low-level workers in its Cincinnati office targeted conservative groups applying for nonprofit status and subjected them to extraordinary scrutiny. Documents, however, show that IRS offices in Washington, D.C., Laguna Niguel and El Monte also sent letters to such groups, demanding extensive information to process their applications during the 2010 congressional elections and the 2012 presidential election.
Conservative groups throughout Southern California said the extra requirements were outrageous political intimidation.
That's why the San Fernando Valley Patriots, after filling out dozens of pages of questions, refused to go any further once the IRS asked for a copy of its membership, said Karen L. Kenney, coordinator for the group.
"This was not tax-related," she said. "This was a witch-hunt for a political agenda, and that's why I pulled out. "
Other Southland Tea Party groups also criticized the IRS, accusing the agency of overstepping its authority for political purposes.
Numerous congressional committees already are investigating the IRS for singling out conservative groups.
The IRS apologized Friday for what it acknowledged was "inappropriate" targeting of such groups.
The agency started targeting groups with "Tea Party," ''Patriots" or "9/12 Project" in their applications in March 2010. The criteria later evolved to include groups that promoted the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The practice ended in May 2012, according to the inspector general's report.
In some cases, the IRS acknowledged, agents inappropriately asked for lists of donors. The agency blamed low-level employees in a Cincinnati office, saying no high-level officials were aware.
But in letters provided by the American Center for Law and Justice, which represents 27 tea party groups that have sought tax-exempt status, IRS officials from El Monte, Laguna Nigel and Washington, D.C., as well as Cincinnati, contacted groups seeking extensive information.
The law center's chief counsel, Jay Sekulow, said he was astonished the IRS said activity was limited to Cincinnati.
"To me, that was what was mind-boggling, they tried to create a narrative," he said.
Sekulow said 10 of the groups his organization represents are still without tax-exempt status years after applying for it, while 15 others have been granted the status after long delays and two others decided to drop their effort because it was taking up too much time and required too much private information.
"Donor lists, conversations you've had with members of the House or Senate," he said. "They were so intrusive they violate the IRS manual. "
Julia Hodges, a member of the Mississippi Tea Party, said she received a questionnaire from an IRS official in El Monte. She said she went back and forth with IRS officials for three years before her organization withdrew its application for tax exempt status because it was taking too much time and effort.
She said the IRS requested all sorts of information she didn't think was relevant, including resumes of the group's members. The organization first sought tax-exempt status in 2009 and abandoned its efforts in April 2012.
"The biggest thing was just the amount of time," said Hodges. "We would answer these questions on the side and thought this is never going to end. It's never going to cease. "
The IRS did not respond Tuesday to questions about why agents outside Cincinnati had also questioned tea party groups.
In an opinion piece in Tuesday's editions of USA Today, acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller conceded that the agency demonstrated "a lack of sensitivity to the implications of some of the decisions that were made." He said screening of advocacy groups is "factually complex, and it's challenging to separate out political issues from those involving education or social welfare. "
These groups were claiming tax-exempt status as organizations promoting social welfare. Unlike other charitable groups, they can engage in political activity. But politics cannot be their primary mission.
That determination is up to the IRS.
Miller said the agency has implemented new procedures that will "ensure the mistakes won't be repeated. "
On Monday, the IRS said Miller was first informed on May, 3, 2012, that applications for tax-exempt status by tea party groups were inappropriately singled out for extra scrutiny.
At least twice after the briefing, Miller wrote letters to members of Congress to explain the process of reviewing applications for tax-exempt status without disclosing that tea party groups had been targeted. On July 25, 2012, Miller testified before the House Ways and Means oversight subcommittee but again did not mention the additional scrutiny - despite being asked about it.
Miller's op-ed did not address why he did not inform Congress after he was briefed.
Miller was a deputy commissioner at the time. He became acting commissioner in November, after Commissioner Douglas Shulman completed his five-year term. Shulman had been appointed by President George W. Bush.
Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, questioned the timing of the IRS admission. It came days before the expected release of the inspector general's report. The IRS admission was made at an American Bar Association conference.
"This timing is curious," Grassley says in a letter Tuesday to Miller. "The IRS chose not to fully answer long-standing congressional questions on the issue, even though they had been posed months before this particular question was asked at the conference. "
Grassley asked Miller to provide records relating to the agency's decision to disclose the targeting of tea party groups at a Friday conference rather than to members of Congress who had been asking about it for more than a year. He also asked for any communications on the issue between the IRS and the White House.
At least three congressional committees have made similar requests. The House Ways and Means Committee, chaired by GOP Rep. Dave Camp of Michigan, is holding a hearing on the issue Friday and Miller is scheduled to testify.
On Tuesday, Camp and Rep. Sander Levin of Michigan, the top Democrat on the committee, requested a trove of documents from the IRS on the issue.
Staff Writer Ryan Hagen contributed to this report.

The BMW 5-Series (E39 chassis) was introduced in the United States as a 1997 model year car and lasted until the 2004 when the E60 chassis was released. The United States saw several variations including the 525i, 528i, 530i and 540i. -- View the E39 Wiki

528i-- Vacuum leak
Hey everyone, I am really frustrated right now, my car is not passing inspection and Im not sure what is wrong. I was hoping someone could give some advice or answers. My CEL light has come on and its the codes for my pre-cat sensor. I decided to do a tuneup and changed all filters, oil change, new spark plugs, new sensors, new MAF sensor and still the CEL light comes on. It is now starting to overheat too.
When I first start it in the mornings it is rough, and you have to press the gas peddle a bit so it doesnt turn off. The Other I was doing this and I noticed the Catalytic convertor was bright red and glowing. Also the car is now overheating sometimes. Both of my mechanics say its a vacuum leak and they cant find it, someone mentioned its my head gasket. Any ideas? Iv been driving a ford explorer and I drive about 400 miles a week, its killing me on gas I need my 528i back.
For example:
- What to look for when your KTMP (1) or coolant temperature gauge indicates overheating (1) & what happens if you drive one mile too far with an overheated BMW cooling system (1).
Anyway ... as per the title of this thread, if it's truly a run-of-the-mill vacuum leak (which every one of us will face on the E39 eventually), then these threads will help:
- How to diagnose a typical BMW E39 engine misfire (1)
But, I would wonder about the logic of assuming that a vacuum leak misfire could/would cause overheating in and of itself.
This set of threads was written for people who suspect this type of overheating:
- Summary advice to provide users who suspect a major engine repair due to overheating (1) (2) (3) (4) & how to test an engine for a blown head gasket, cracked heads, a warped block, stripped head bolt threads, cam seizures, contaminated bearings, coolant hydrolock, or piston, ring, or valve damage (1) (2) & what are the major factors in deciding whether to rebuild the engine, replace the engine, or sell the car (1) & a DIY for replacing the I6 M54 head gasket (1) (2) & replacing the V8 M62TU head gasket (1) & why these engines are so prone to heat-related damage in the first place (1) & welding the crack between cylinder #3 and the water jacket on the exhaust side (1) & what engine swaps are most recommended (1) (2) (3) & where to obtain a new or rebuilt head (1) replacement short block or long block (1) (2) & how to lift & remove the engine (1) & the most recent real-world results from the last 50 people faced with similar blown engine problems from which this advice came from (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) (11) (12) (13) (14) (15) (16) (17) (18) (19) (20) (21) (22) (23) (24) (25) (26) (27) (28) (29) (30) (31) (32) (33) (34) (35) (36) (37) (38) (39) (40) (41) (42) (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50)

Just had to say bluebee is like the Data of this e39 starship.
What are the codes?
Are you loosing coolant? You need to find out if your head gasket is gone--a red hot exhaust is not good and never heard of a vac leak causing such. On Vac leaks--go to the search engine and type in Vacuum leaks revisited and then scroll down and click on link--that's for a m54 engine--but it may help you find the spots for you to check--there are a few more vacuum hoses on your car that the m54 doesn't have--would suggest that you start by replacing all of them--hoses are cheap--unmeterd air plays havoc on fuel mileage and power and vacuum leaks --well thats unmetered air entering the engine. Hope that helps
As others have said, it sounds like you have a large vacuum leak. The usual place for a vacuum leak is the rubber intake boots between the MAF and the throttle body. You need to remove and inspect these boots as it is almost impossible to thoroughly inspect them when they are on the car. FYI a lean running engine will run very hot and will be damaged if forced to run lean for extended periods. Lean means too much air & not enough fuel usually caused by a vacuum leak.
The other thing you can do is take the car to a trusted BMW shop. Not a shop that is unfamiliar with these cars. The car should be smoke tested for vacuum leaks and the fault codes should be read and diagnosed correctly. There are many fault codes for pre-cat O2 sensors but in most cases the sensor is telling you that there is a problem-the O2 sensor is the messenger and not the problem. It is also essential that your overheating problem is diagnosed and solved. Overheating an aluminum engine will kill that engine dead if not taken care of.
Guessing and throwing parts at these cars can get very expensive and usually does not solve the problem.
I understand that a lean mixture is a hotter mixture - and I understand that, in the cylinder itself, a hotter burn can damage things - especially since the cooling system is the oil 'in' the cylinder and the coolant 'near' the cylinder ... but - doesn't the cooling system have enough of a margin to remove the excess heat such that the temperature measured on the temperature sensor (located even further away) might be close to normal?
I don't have any first hand experience with this - so - consider that a newbie question as I think I understand the theory (lean is certainly hotter) but I wonder why the cooling system doesn't handle it (within its margins)?
Without the current codes and a smoke test, it's just a guessing game.
- How to make, borrow, or buy lean-condition misfire test tools to test for vacuum leaks & lean conditions (1) (2)
For a decade-old BMW, prophylactically replacing all the rubber hoses isn't necessarily a bad idea.
The OP should read these for details:
- How to locate all problematic (between 1/8" & 9/32" ID) 3.5x1.8mm, 3.3x1.8mm & (between 17/64" & 9/32" ID) 7mm ID vacuum tubing (single material), vacuum hoses (multiple material), 3.3mm OD curved vacuum pipes (rigid tubes), 3.5mm & 7mm ID vacuum endcaps (closed end) & 7x3mm manifold o-rings (1) & 7.52X3.52mm and 9.2X2.8mm fuel injection o-rings (1) & gaskets (1) on the M54 engine & where in the USA to get new vacuum tubing & vacuum caps (1) & what SAE sizes to get for all the metric M54 engine vacuum tubes, hoses, pipes, and caps (1) & correcting the F-connector errors in the realoem diagrams (1) & finding the ends of hard-to-locate vacuum tubes (1) & sorely needed clarification on how the M54 CCV vacuum port works on the M52 CCV valve connection to the fuel pressure regulator connection (1)

Thanks for the replies. I have not dared to drive the car around anywhere. I changed out the whole coolant system during summer because of overheat issues and it had no problems. The problems started last month, when it started getting cold. I will pass this information along to my mechanic, I guess my next stop will have to be the dealership. I had plans to vinyl wrap my car but I guess I rather have a working car rather than a pretty car.
Also, I would think a red-hot cat would also trigger some kind of blinking CEL?

With a focus on performing as a lightweight midlayer or warm baselayer, the versatile Delta LT Zip pullover also works as a mild temperature standalone. Made from Polartec® Classic 100 micro velour small grid, the Delta LT is highly air permeable, dries quickly and packs small. Its low bulk and Trim fit allow it layer easily under a shell or heavier midlayer. Light and compressible, it easily stows in a pack and can be used as standalone in mild conditions.
DESIGNED for WOMEN
With a focus on athletic freedom and performance, the Delta LT is specifically designed to fit and work with a woman's body. The Trim fit stays close to the body for more efficient fabric performance and minimal bulk under shell layers. Articulation prevents the sleeves from riding up when the arm is bent, and gussets under the arms make it easier to extend reach while climbing or poling.
COMFORT and EFFICIENCY
Arc'teryx designs work as a system. Base layer through hardshell, articulation, feature placement and fits align for maximum freedom and function. The high collar seals in warmth with a low profile that won't bind under layers, and a slight drop hem adds coverage without dangling out. The deep front zip uses a nonlocking slider that allows single hand operation when rapid ventilation is needed.

Granted yes the fair market value of his compensation is enormous, but performance based compensation is a large factor in CEO compensation because it serves the shareholders as well. It's also primarily a result of an American tax law that limits the deductibility of any executive compensation to the first $1M (excluding any performance based compensation, which is probably why the 2nd $900K was labeled as such). The fact that he is getting a large number of shares of the company with the highest market capitalization shouldn't surprise anyone.
He has to stay to year 2021 to receive it all.
I love it when working class people hate on rich people. If you don't like rich people then move to Cuba. If you're going to participate in a capitalistic society (assuming y'all live in America) then just accept the fact that there will be filthy rich people and applaud their success.
damn dawg, lemme get about 150 thou, then I would be totally debt free. Man that would make me FEEL a whole lot richer.

Lamb leg is ideal for stewing or braising because it is moist and tender when well cooked. The amount of curry powder used and the hotness of the curry seasoning mixture can be varied to suit your own taste. Some of the spices in the curry powder come whole and some are already ground; when possible, buy the whole seeds and grind them yourself for a fresher and better flavor. If you decide not to make your own curry powder, it is widely available in most markets.
The pear chutney is easy to make and can be prepared weeks ahead, as it keeps well refrigerated. Many commercial chutneys are available, if you don't have the time to make the one here.–Jacques Pépin
Lamb Curry with Pear Chutney, Brown Rice, and Okra Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Makes 6 servings
- For the curry seasoning mixture
- 1 tablespoon whole coriander seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon hot red-pepper flakes
- 2 teaspoons black peppercorns
- 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- For the stew
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 pounds lamb leg meat, as lean as possible, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup curry seasoning mixture (see above)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup diced (1/4-inch) onions
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 2 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped tomato flesh, seeds and skin removed (from 2 large tomatoes) (see Note)
- 1 pound apples (about 3), unpeeled, stems and cores removed, cut into 1/2-inch dice (2 1/2 cups)
- 6 cloves garlic, peeled, crushed, and chopped fine (1 tablespoon)
- 2 bananas, peeled and sliced (1 1/2 cups)
- Garnish
- Mint leaves
- Pear Chutney
- Brown Rice
- Okra
- 1. Grind the seasoning ingredients to a powder in a mini-chop or spice grinder.
- 2. Heat the butter in a large saucepan. When hot, add the meat in one layer. Sprinkle with the salt, and brown on all sides over medium to high heat for about 10 minutes. Mix the curry seasoning with the flour in a bowl, then stir it and the onions into the pan containing the meat. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, then add the wine, water, and remaining stew ingredients, and mix them in. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to low, and boil gently for 45 minutes. At this point, the meat should be tender when pierced with the point of a knife; if still tough, cook a little longer. If an excessive amount of liquid remains, continue boiling the stew, uncovered, to reduce the sauce further.
- 3. To serve, spoon the stew onto a large serving platter. Scatter the warm okra and a few mint leaves on top, and serve with the pear chutney and rice on the side.
To Peel and Seed a Tomato
- There are several ways to peel a tomato: Holding it over the flame of a gas stove not only chars the skin, which then will peel off, but also gives the tomato a mildly smoky taste. If the tomato is a bit firm, you can peel it with a good vegetable peeler or a knife. If, however, you have a lot of tomatoes to peel, the easiest way is first to remove their stems with the point of a knife, and then to drop the tomatoes into boiling water to cover. Leave them in the water from 10 to 30 seconds, depending on their ripeness, with the ripest ones needing the least time. Remove with a skimmer, and cool for a few minutes at room temperature.
- Cut the tomato crosswise (not through the stem) into halves, which will expose all the little pockets of seeds. Holding a tomato upside down over a bowl, squeeze it gently to extrude the seeds. Repeat with the other tomato half. You now have pure tomato flesh; the seeds and skin can be used in stock, and the flesh can be diced, julienned, or chopped for sauteing or for use in a fresh tomato sauce, salad, or as a garnish.
