worried sick
I went for tea at my mil's and she cooked me a ready meal (cottage pie) it was a chilled meal but she had frozen it. She was slightly tipsy when she did it and she cooked it for the required about of time for chilled not frozen. i ate half before i realised it was cold in the middle and now im so worried about the listeria risk i can hardly sleep and i feel like crying all the time. im 30 weeks pregnant.

Hi Mandii - welcome to our forum - we hope you gain lots of support. Listeria infection is quite rare. While it is important to eat food heated right through the chances of any problems from the meal you have eaten is highly unlikely. Talk to your midwife or doctor if concerned.

Mount Baldy is the biggest and best mountain to ride in southern California. Locals think of it as a secret gem. It's an old-school ski area, with an old weathered lodge, fixed-grip double chairs, and minimal grooming: A blast from the past, or maybe the Mt. Baker of SoCal! Despite being just an hour from the heart of Los Angeles, there's been almost no "development" which has helped keep it's cool, old vibe intact. It's steep, legendary, badass—and people looking for amenities and a scene don't bother to go. This is a plus for sure. But with all the hype of the last string of storms that pushed through the area, the secret was out. About 5 feet of snow piled up on Baldy, and with it's elevation at over 10,000-feet, it meant pow. A very rare thing is SoCal indeed. A crew from the mag rallied up to get some of it and we met up with scores of old crusties. Dudes like Jeff Brushie, Todd Richards, skate legends Chris Miller, Dave Duncan, and so many more were all dipping into the goods. The snow didn't stop and the wooden-slat chair seats were thick with ice. Frozen butts and all, we ripped through the trees all day howling like monkeys. Check the pics.

EL PASO, Texas - USC got off to a rocky start here Wednesday when the Trojans arrived late to a joint dinner with Georgia Tech, which caused the Yellow Jackets to leave before the teams participated in any activities together.
Sun Bowl officials described Georgia Tech officials as furious over the incident, which occurred at the Sunland Park Racetrack & Casino in nearby Sunland Park, N.M.
"They were pretty upset," said a Sun Bowl official who attended the dinner.
USC coach Lane Kiffin said the Trojans were delayed by events of the day, including their flight from Los Angeles and a reception at the airport. USC started practice late and arrived at the dinner approximately 30 minutes late, according to a USC official.
"There was no disrespect," Kiffin said. "We apologize if we offended anybody. Unfortunately, we were late. The event was scheduled to go a lot longer.
"We went as fast we could. I thought it was staggered. I didn't know the teams were eating together."
The dinner is an annual get-together for Sun Bowl participants. The last time the Trojans played in the Sun Bowl in 1998, quarterback Carson Palmer entertained the crowd with an impression of USC coach Paul Hackett.
Another Twitter controversy
Kiffin expressed remorse over defensive tackle Leonard Williams' derogatory tweet about El Paso after the Trojans arrived here. Williams deleted the tweet and followed linebacker Tony Burnett, who also criticized El Paso when USC was selected for the Sun Bowl.
"We talked at length and addressed it," Kiffin said of the Williams incident. "We have 110 kids and unfortunately they screw up.
"Once again, another apology was sent out. I was very upset about it."
Williams was not made available for comment.
Kiffin said he did not punish Williams.
"I also think you need to be careful with people's rights," Kiffin said.
Quarterback Max Wittek is one of the few Trojans who do not use a twitter account. The athletic department. publicizes all the Trojans' twitter handles in football press releases.
"I never saw a need for it," Wittek said.
Wittek's predecessor, Barkley, is a prolific twitter user.
Woods nears announcement
Wide receiver Robert Woods said he already made his decision on whether to turn pro, even though he will not announce it until Monday immediately after the Sun Bowl.
He is expected to turn pro and received his early evaluation from the NFL, which said he could be a potential first-round draft choice.
"I feel like I made the best decision," Woods said.
Farmer hurt?
Wide receiver George Farmer, who was singled out by Kiffin in early bowl practices, did not suit up for Thursday's practice. USC officials would not comment on his status.
Bowl activity of the day
USC and Georgia Tech players visited Fort Bliss, where they toured the nation's second-largest army base.

Seems to be a problem due to installing BT3 over BT2 - incompatibility between the wireless tools versions. I had upgraded them on BT2 and they remained on my HDD when I upgraded to BT3 kind of screwed everything up - I ended up with memory alloc errors every time I opened anything.
Tried to roll back to BT2 by using the install BT2 application however it didn't overwrite some files left over from BT3 and KDE screwed up with a plethora of errors - flux worked fine though but it had the BT3 wallpaper and that blue hand thingy when BT3 starts. Strange.
Format and start again seems to be the quickest way to proceed.

The judge handling San Bernardino's bankruptcy likely will not lift a stay so CalPERS can sue over missed pension payments, several attorneys studying the legal battle predicted Tuesday.
That could save expensive legal fees for the city, which plans to resume payments in fiscal year 2013-14 and repay the rest later because it says paying earlier would ruin the city.
The two cities' bankruptcy cases are being watched because they cover untested legal ground and touch on potential changes to the California Public Employee Retirement System - the nation's largest retirement system - but there are also practical concerns, said bankruptcy attorney Karol Denniston.
"Despite all the legal complexity, we actually are faced with a very simple economic math problem," Denniston said. "We have x amount of money to deal with y amount of liability, and the sooner the parties are given ability - not necessarily authority - to negotiate, the better."
Denniston, who helped draft a law governing California bankruptcies known as AB 506, led a webinar about the bankruptcy cases in San Bernardino and Stockton along with Louis T. DeLucia, also of the San Francisco law firm Schiff Hardin.
Both tentatively predicted that bankruptcy Judge Meredith Jury would refuse to lift the stay, which means CalPERS would remain unable to sue in state court for payments the city stopped making when it filed for bankruptcy Aug. 1. Those payments total about $6.9 million so far, according to CalPERS.
"Recognizing that we're not taking a position on behalf of any client, and speaking academically - pure speculation - my gut tells me that the court and the parties (CalPERS and San Bernardino) may find themselves in the very same place regardless of the path taken," DeLucia said.
That's because arguments about CalPERS payments would have to wind their way through state courts before eventually being reconciled with decisions made in federal bankruptcy court, a point Jury will likely recognize and seek to avoid, DeLucia said.
Denniston agreed, adding that because of that reasoning, a denial of the stay wouldn't mean Jury disagreed with CalPERS.
And in an interview Tuesday, bankruptcy attorney Franklin C. Adams of Riverside-based Best Best & Krieger also agreed Jury would probably prefer not to let another set of courts weigh in.
"That would really goof up the bankruptcy process, and I don't think a bankruptcy court is going to let a state court meddle in that respect, where a state court makes a judgment and then enters an order to make payment while it's in protection of bankruptcy court," said Adams, whose firm has been watching the case and entered the broader bankruptcy case Tuesday on behalf of two of the city's creditors.
Adams noted that San Bernardino is now at the center of pension discussions, after Stockton decided to keep its debts to CalPERS intact. Other creditors there are fighting that decision, saying some of the money should instead go to them.
"(Stockton officials) don't have the political fallout of saying we're not going to pay our pensioners," he said. "San Bernardino doesn't have that luxury. They're trying to put together this pendency plan, and they're just so scrapped that they had to do this."
CalPERS, which argues that state law requires payments to the system, had an unfunded liability of nearly $107 billion when it last reported in June 2010 and is experiencing a low rate of return - 1 percent last year - as the number of retirees increases. Meanwhile, many of the cities whose payments fund the system are facing deep fiscal problems.
"CalPERS has problems, and it's got challenges itself," said San Bernardino City Attorney James F. Penman. "One interpretation of what they're doing is they're just demonstrating to retirees and people in the retirement system who haven't yet retired that they're doing everything in their power to make sure payments come in."
Penman said he wasn't in private CalPERS meetings, but hoped the judge sided with the city and that CalPERS saw it as in their best interest.
"I can't see what benefit it would be to CalPERS to cause any city to dissolve, and if we paid CalPERS what they say we owe them, we would dissolve," he said. This report has been modified to correct the unfunded liability for CalPERS.

Why Certain Areas of East Texas are 'Dry' and How to Make Them 'Wet' [OPINION]
Yesterday, I talked about my favorite beers for beating the Texas heat. With that being said, there aren't too many other things that I enjoy more than sitting on my deck on a hot, steamy East Texas summer evening while sipping on a delicious, ice cold brew. There is just one thing that is confusing to me: Why do I have drive 20 miles out of town to get my beer?

"I was in a large chorus that just performed this oratorio last weekend. I have been singing choral music for the past 50 years, and without doubt, this is the most beautiful, inspiring, moving piece I have ever performed. It is written in 17 movements, varying in tone from serene to nearly bombastic! The music ranges from harmonic to dissonant in places; the words are so inspiring that it was difficult for me to maintain my emotional composure throughout the performance, even though I had heard the CD and rehearsed the number countless times. Performing this composition was undoubtedly the highlight of my entire singing experience. I cannot recommended it highly enough! Karl Jenkins is a genius of composition."

When the HP LaserJet 4200 or 4300 series printer receives a print job, it selects the tray by trying to match the requested paper type and size with what has been loaded in the trays. Using an "auto-select" process, it searches all available trays for the paper that satisfies the request, starting with the bottom tray and ending with the top tray (Tray 1). The printer begins printing the job as soon as it finds the proper type/size.
note:The "auto-select" process occurs only if no specific tray is requested for the job. If a specific tray is requested, the job prints from the requested tray.
If paper is loaded in Tray 1 and Tray 1 is set TRAY 1 TYPE=ANY and TRAY 1 SIZE=ANY on the Paper Handling menu, the printer will always pull paper from Tray 1 first. See "Customizing Tray 1 operation" below, or the printer's User Guide for more information.To view and download the User Guide for the HP LaserJet 4200 and 4300 Series Printers, CLICK HERE.
If the search fails, a message appears on the printer control panel display requesting that the correct paper type/size be loaded. That paper type/size can be loaded, or the request can be over-ridden by selecting a different type/size at the printer control panel.
If a tray runs out of paper during a print job, the printer automatically switches to any tray that contains the same paper type/size.

You guys seem to think ability to teach is all that's important, but a coach needs knowledge to pass on too. That's why I said it's ok for blue belts to teach within certain guidelines. A point most of you seem to have ignored.
Also, a team's results are influenced by more than just the level of technique taught. If a coach encourages their students to do s&c, for instance, they will have an advantage over other teams who don't. The question was about teaching jiu-jitsu though, not running a team.
http://www.ChrisReesAcademy.com - http://thetattooedchimp.blogspot.co.uk/
If you are a beginner, high level BJJ is the last thing on the agenda, so black, brown, purple can be used for senior classes, so if a blue belt was teaching a beginners class, i see no problem there.
The original post asked about the gracies doing this, yes they do, blue belt curriculum is all combatives against unskilled opponents, so blue belts are qualified to teach combatives classes should they achieve 90% in the exam.
Final point, the GCG way is also great, due to the fact that the highest rank stated on the thread was the same as other guys, with 3rd party overseers and tuition, when the playing field is even, the motion of learning is perpetual, and due to this GCG have some great guys, so blue belt or not, achievement and skill speaks for itself.
If you are a beginner with the attitude " just a blue belt " when you are a white belt, then its best to revaluate... a blue belt sure as hell knows how to teach trap and roll, elbow pass, kimura armlock, take the back and rear naked choke, (first 5 lessons of combatives) which will be keeping you busy as a beginner.
Some people watch so much BJJ and have seen techniques applied so many times that they go i can do that at their first class, sacrificing base and control because they saw gsp do it in ufc.... i used to be one of those people
Highest belt is a 2 stripe brown why jimbo.
I've been to classes with blue belts who were good and bad at coaching - and high ranked belts who were good and bad at coaching. I have experience of a fair bit of different styles of coaching. I'm not saying you don't have that - but I believe it's important to have that experience when thinking of this topic.
And on the football point - you should watch 'Being Liverpool' and there you will see a coach in Brendan Rodgers giving advice to footballers who are better than him. But see what he tells them and how he puts it across. It's a great insight into sports coaching.
anyway back to topic, does the colour matter when the talent is enough, discarding someone by belt colour is misplaced logic unless the person sucks, but that is very rare and usually comes down to " all we got taught was an escape from mount and a guard pass for the whole class, get a black belt so i can learn some berimbolo or a mounted gogoplata"
Fabricio Werdums purple belt instructional was one of the most sought after dvd, he was only a purple at the tiime, but everyone wanted it, even blackbelts, the content was broken down into 4 concepts, the technique, the counter, the bottom positioning and the top positioning, while other dvds just taught techniques... there was only a few thousand printed and they go for about $200 on ebay, anyway thats just 1 example of how talent on its own spoke more than rank.
The GCG posts are closest to accurate based off of talent speaking for itself, and them being "just blue belts" however what Asa is teaching seems to be working, this isnt the same as other places obviously since some instructors suck, but disputing a system which is perpetual and works with the " just the blue belt " argument makes no sense.
Everyone has their opinions though, so if a black belt is needed, find one

During the incoming 2012 New Year's holiday celebration, 25 people were killed in DUI-related collisions statewide.
The American Automobile Association cautions that the New Year's holiday period is the deadliest time to be on the road because of alcohol-related driving fatalities.
This problem on the roadways has caused San Bernardino County to adopt the state-driven "Avoid the 25" DUI campaign. It has kept authorities very active in December, said Ontario police Officer Natalie Kopperud.
The campaign is made up of 25 local law enforcement agencies cracking down on those driving under the influence.
Between Dec. 14 and Dec. 26, officers in the task force made 844 DUI arrests.
"Tragically, there was one death attributed to a drunk driver in our area reported by the sheriff's Hesperia station," Kopperud said. "And nine DUI-related injury collisions reported throughout the county."
Random sobriety checkpoints are planned in the the county looking for drivers under the influence.
The majority of those who died in the California Highway Patrol's jurisdiction were not wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.
CHP officers made more than 1,200 DUI arrests, according to CHP officials in Sacramento.
To help ensure motorist safety, the CHP is preparing to ring in the new year with an increased enforcement presence statewide.
The CHP's New Year's maximum enforcement period began Friday and continues through Tuesday.
The increased enforcement effort follows the one that occurred during the Christmas holiday period.
During that 102-hour reporting period, 39 people were killed in collisions and CHP officers made 1,170 DUI arrests statewide.
There are ways to keep out of jail and stay alive while celebrating the incoming year.
The Automobile Club of Southern California is once again offering its "Tipsy Tow" service.
Tipsy Tow provides a complimentary ride and a vehicle tow for up to seven miles from the point of pickup for drivers who have consumed alcohol on New Year's Eve. It's available to members and non-members.
"Friends don't let friends drive drunk isn't just a slogan," said Inland CHP spokesman Mario Lopez. "It should be a way of life."
CHP officials are encouraging the public to report drivers suspected of being under the influence.
When calling 9-1-1 to report a suspected drunken driver, authorities ask that you provide a description of the vehicle, a license plate number, location and direction of travel.
"Our ultimate goal is to help prevent avoidable tragedy by encouraging the public to make responsible choices such as designating a sober driver, buckling up, and traveling at a speed safe for conditions," said CHP Commissioner Joe Farrow.
The Tipsy Tow service can be hailed by calling 800-400-4222.

well this is a good leave in. i use this before combing out my hair after shower or just when i feel like using it. i don't know if other people have the same issue like i do where i spray this on my hair & i feel like sneezing (and most of the time i did). also, i found that my scalp gets itchy when i use this. i love how it makes my hair feel but the naughty attributes of this product outweigh the goods.
Great product, strong smell.

This product makes my hair feel and look wonderful and easy to comb(my hair is really fine and tangles easy), but the smell is incredibly strong. I water it down. I wish they would use way less perfume in it; that would be perfect!

This is not for those of us that is sensitive to floral scents. Very strong, and it lingers. It is good for the hair though, and I have ended up using it as a treatment when I comb my hair before showering. Gets out the knots, and makes it easier to manage.
Very impressive!

Love this spray in condition!~ it smells great and it works good for detangling hair. I bought this for my 6 year old particularly to brush through her morning bed head getting ready for school, and not only does it conditioner her hair, it gives it a deliciously uplifting smell for her day! I will buy this again.
*************************** Great stuff! For all Hair Types.

Great stuff! My hair never felt silkier and smoother after just a few days of use. My Wife loves this too! I found that it helps if you wrap a warm towel around your hair to keep the moisture locked in for 15 minutes. This will make the product penetrate even more and maximize the results. . . . . You can find other products I use on my Page! I use only products that have Scientifically Proven benefits.

Gas prices may rise through April, experts say
Published: Monday, February 11, 2013 at 6:34 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, February 11, 2013 at 6:34 p.m.
The price of gasoline at the pump is rising rapidly and experts said Monday that the increase is expected to continue into April at least.
A variety of reasons - from snow storms in the northeast to economic growth in China - are being blamed for the rise. In addition, the ongoing switch to the summer blend fuel and refinery maintenance pushed oil and gas prices higher in the past few weeks.
Last year, gas prices peaked in April then headed on a downward trend through the summer months. This year is forecast to have a similar trend, but with lower gas prices overall.
"Gas prices are still forecast to peak in April, so it's likely motorists will see pump prices steadily increase during the next couple of months," said Jessica Brady, AAA spokeswoman, The Auto Club Group. "However, the national average is not expected to exceed $4 a gallon this year for regular unleaded gasoline."
The national average price of regular unleaded gasoline is $3.58, seven cents more than last week. Florida's average price of $3.64 increased eight cents from last week. Georgia's average of $3.47 rose two cents, according to AAA.
In Gainesville, prices ranged from $3.55 to $3.89, with an average price of $3.68, about 4 cents more than last week, according to the website GasBuddy.com.
A barrel of oil closed Friday at $95.72 on the New York Mercantile Exchange, $2.05 less than the week prior.

Adverse Selection - Risk that only liquid securities are crossed leaving illiquid securities and mismatched sectors.
Bid/Ask Spread - Difference between the lower bid (broker buys) and the higher ask (broker sells) for a security.
Credit Rating - A measure of a bond's quality as determined by a rating service. Ratings start at "AAA", the highest ranking, through "D" for bonds in default. The analysis uses Bloomberg composite ratings which are a blend of Standard and Poor's and Moody's.
Crossing (Internal) - Using a transition manager's access to index funds or other transition client flow to offset buys and sells. These security transfers are priced at the closing price of the day and are 100% free of commission and market impact costs since they are never shown to any brokers.
Crossing (External) - Using publicly available networks such as ITG's POSIT or Instinet to buy or sell securities at a pre-determined price. These trades are executed at low commission rates and market impact costs are reduced by either executing the match at the mid-point of the bid/ask spread or by pricing the trade at the market close.
Duration - The weighted average maturity of a securities future cash flows. A higher duration indicates greater price sensitivity to changes in interest rates.
Explicit Costs - Represents the most visible, but least significant cost of a trade. Includes commissions and fees.
Delay - Represents the loss in investment value between time of decision to trade and actual order release. Can also arise due to a jump in market prices from the prior night's close to the open, (i.e., open gap).
Fiduciary - Represents those who have discretionary authority or control over fund assets, are free from conflicts of interest, and must act in the interests of the participants of the plan.
Implementation Shortfall - Represents the difference in return between the actual portfolio and the target portfolio.

Information Leakage - The release of material information about a trade before the order is released to the market. Raises total costs since it allows arbitrageurs to trade ahead of the transition.
In-kind Transfers - Securities that are transferred from the legacy to target portfolio. These security contributions are priced at the closing price of the day and are 100% free of commission and market impact costs.
Legacy Portfolio - Portfolio that securities are being transitioned from.
Market Impact - Amount that a security price moves after placing a trade order.
Opportunity Costs - Cost associated with the time gap in transferring assets from the legacy portfolio to the target portfolio.
Over the Counter (OTC) - A dealer dominated trading market where securities exchange hands through direct negotiating between buyers and sellers. The majority of bonds and NASDAQ equity securities are traded OTC.
Pre-trade Analysis - An analysis detailing trading costs (commissions, taxes, market impact, bid/ask spread and opportunity costs), compared against an unmanaged transition providing characteristics of the legacy and target portfolios and highlighting problematic securities to be transitioned.
Post-trade Analysis - A comparison of the actual costs versus the pre-trade estimates of the transition and stated benchmark.
Principal Bid - Represents brokers who commit capital to facilitate trade at price set at a predetermined time in exchange for a premium. In the U.S., all principal trades are executed at the closing price. A blind bid is one that is submitted revealing only general characteristics of the securities, (beta, volatility), and not a specific list of securities.
Target Portfolio - Portfolio that securities are being transferred to.
Tracking Error - The expected deviation from the expected differences in returns between two portfolios.
Unmanaged Transition - Assumes that all trades are done in the open market without the benefit of in-kind transfers, internal crossing or external crossing.

How to flush power steering system?
I was driving home and heard a noise while turning steering wheel. I stopped at the gas station and my PS fluid was really low so mechanic added Trans fluid to my power steering - didnt even ask me. How bad is it, what should i do?
one or both of the ps hoses may be leaking. very common. Or the reservoir may be leaking. very common also. fix or replace the those items. check the ps pump for signs of leakage.
Here are two procedures:
Get two quarts of the best synthetic ATF from your auto parts store. I used Mobil 1.
Extract as much of the fluid from the reservoir as you can, using a turkey baster.
Optional: remove the reservoir and flush it out with gasoline. I did this, since the filter inside is not removable.
Remove the return hose from the reservoir. Its the forward hose, coming from the radiator, and into the bottom center of the reservoir. Have something ready to plug the reservoir pipe, and catch any residual fluid in the reservoir. I used a rubber cap, designed to cap off vacuum lines, and a couple of shop rags. Youll need a new hose clamp.
BTW, this center clamp allows a leak to develop. Best to replace it anyway.
Fit a length of rubber hose onto, or into, the return hose so that you can route it into a catch can of at least two quart capacity. I used a cut-off bleach bottle, since, being white, it is easier to do the next step, as well being an easy target for the stream of fluid.
Fill the reservoir with new fluid. Have both bottles of ATF open and handy. With one hand on the hose, aiming into the bucket, and the other on the bottle of ATF, have a helper start the engine. Keep pouring ATF into the reservoir until fresh fluid comes out into the bucket. Then shut off the engine, reattach the hose, and top up the reservoir.
DO NOT move the steering wheel with the return hose disconnected, and the engine running! It will pump lots more fluid, and, if the hose is not restrained, it will blow fluid all over!
Optional Dave Roadfly Kowached Method
Every night, after coming home from work, extract as much fluid from the reservoir as possible. Fill with fresh fluid. After running two quarts through this way, the system will be much cleaner.
Once cleaned this way, do one reservoir-full at each oil change.

what fluid is recommended?
the owners manual has no info on ps fluid. is prestone ps fluid OK? ATF? Other?
I've been scared to "flush" my power steering fluid even though I have a noise upon cold engine startup which might be the fluid. I had asked the parts guy and he gave me power steering fluid (he said it was Dexron II) which I put in, only to find out belatedly it's Dexron III ATF you need, and even then, they don't make it anymore so you really need Dexron VI ATF!
My question is ... is Dexron VI ATF the same as "get two quarts of the best synthetic ATF from your auto parts store" ???
Yes. ^^^
Any Dexron III ATF or higher.
THere's another way to do a complete p/s flush w/out even having to turn on the engine. I've done this on several of my Toyos & Lexus autos and imo works better than relying on engine (pump) assist, because you get to control very precisely how much fluid flows out of the system.
Raise the front wheel off ground so you can turn the steering wheel l-r w/out the tires dragging the ground. Then, using a turkey baster or some suction pump, suction out as much old, nasty looking fluid out the reservoir as you can. Then remove the return hose (hose going to radiator) from the reservoir. Expect some fluid to remain inside the reservoir, so have a handfull of used towels beneath to catch/absorb the spill.
Cap off the nipple at the reservoir, because you will be refilling the reservoir w/ fresh fluid, and you want this outlet closed. YOu can use another hose w/ a bolt plugging the end up, or a long length hose w/ its end raised higher up than the opening of the reservoir, or a cap that you found to fit the nippple, any means at your disposal to ensure that this nipple's closed off and not leak will do.
THe hose that's separated from the reservoir canister will spew out the old fluid, so place a catch can (or quart milk jug, 2 liter coke bottle, etc...) over this hose. Now you're set. fill the reservoir all the way to the top. W/out cranking the engine, turn the steering wheel left, then right, then left and as you do so, you'll see the fluid pump out. Maintain steering until fresh clean fluid either comes out the hose or you reach empty on the reservoir, and in this case, refill and repeat. The trick here is not to run the reservoir bone dry, as this will introduce air into the hydraulics. when you're done, reinstall hose, lower car, and clean up.
PS Bluebee:
I buy D4 ATF by the 5 gal buckets as I believe Redline ATF is THE BEST of the best. Redline starts w/ very high quality synthetic base stock, therefore they don't rely on too much improvers to prop up viscosity at 100c temps. Thus their line of synthetics outlasts its competitors even because of how stable their fluids are. But it's rarely, if ever, the heat that kills P/S systems, as p/s systems NEVER reaches 100 deg C for street use. It's contaminants from the pump's gears (as it wears out) and airborn dirt collected under the cap that's gotten past the filter and allowed to cycle repeatedly, chewing out the hydraulic's seals. THe trick is to flush often, and to replace the reservoir b/c the (marginally effective) filter that's in there is non replaceable. Perform the flush every 25k miles, or 2 yrs, and replace the reservoir every 50k miles and or 4-5 yrs and you should never have to replace your p/s rack and/or pump due to premature failure. Now leaky hoses and torn dust boots, well, that's another matter...
When I asked, the counterperson said Dexron VI is what you need nowadays; of course, that's the same counter-type-person who sold me the Dexron II PSF instead of the ATF!
So, it would be nice if folks chimed in whether or not there is such as thing (on the shelves) as Dexron III nowadays (they told me GM no longer certifies Dexron III so it would be years old if it were).
Lots of noisy engine information in this cold-start squeal thread.
Leaky power steering information in this thread.
Cloudy power steering fluid in this thread.
More noisy power steering threads here.
Fixing the leaky power steering reservoir cap here and here.
From the sounds of it, OP doesn't need a flush. He thought the mechanic put ATF in there by mistake, that's why he's asking about a flush.
When I bought mine, previous owner had PSF in there. I changed it out, but used a diff sucker at work. Same principle as above, just made it much easier.
For the third time, I sucked out all the fluid from the reservoir and replaced it; but, this quick-and-easy-fix attempt failed to eliminate the cold-start squeal ... so I think new belts and perhaps roller-thingies are in my future ...

Raising this old thread from the dead because I'm preparing to do a full flush of my PS system and came across the above post.
DHoang, if you're still around, a question.....
Does the rack have one-way valving or something such that the fluid can only be pulled through the pump and out the return line? Turning lock to lock accomplishes this?
Offhand, I've seen maybe three or four different ways to flush but your suggestion above would be a bit less messy and easier to accomplish by myself.
The other method I like involves pulling the return line, placing the tip in a catch bucket, de-tensioning/removing the serpentine belt, and turning the pump pulley clockwise by hand.

Okay, I did a little reading on steering rack wiki sites etc and learned just enough about the control valve etc to go ahead and try this .... on my Subaru today, BMW soon.
It works very easily with the Subaru, didn't even have to remove the underbelly panel. I dropped a 2 qt-size cola bottle down in the front corner of the engine compartment, cut a piece of rubber hose to channel return fluid into the bottle (the return hose on the Subie is too short for comfort). Once I had the temporary catch "apparatus" in place, I jacked the front of the just enough for the wheels to clear and turn easily without any assist. This should be almost as easy on the BMW, and gets all the old out in one step. I spent about 30 minutes with the Subie but probably will take a little longer with the bimmer.
Thanks for sharing, DHoang.
Couldn't stop myself from just going ahead and doing it to the bimmer here. Pretty much same procedure. I didn't remove the belly pan. Instead, I connected a clear, large-diam. hose to the disconnected return line and diverted fluid into a gallon jug on the ground under the car.
I was able to watch the fluid coming out through the clear hose, and replenished the reservoir every 3-4 cycles of steering wheel turned lock to lock.
Took longer than the Subie, about 45 minutes, because the bimmer uses almost 3 times as much fluid (just over 2 quarts, compared to about 0.7 qt for the Subaru), and removing/re-attaching the return line to the reservoir isn't as easy, plus I still needed to clean up a few drips of fluid I got on the alternator despite trying to avoid that.

Missouri at #1 Oklahoma: The Sooners are the overwhelming favorite in the Big 12, but coming off the key national showdown with Florida State could provide letdown opportunities with a solid Tiger squad in town.
#7 Oklahoma State at #8 Texas A&M: These two teams finished in a near tie for second-place in the Big 12 preseason poll and both have been very impressive through the non-conference slate.
Notre Dame at Pittsburgh: The Fighting Irish take on Pitt on the road, Panthers will look for revenge after 23-17 loss in 2010.
#23 USC at Arizona State: The top two picks in the Pac-12 South meet in the desert - undefeated USC just clawed back into the rankings while the Sun Devils just slipped out after a road loss.

Our Department of Public Works has announced the following construction projects will be taking place in the City:
Sidewalk work on Pine Street
The City's contractor, Breneman Inc, will commence work to replace the no longer used Pine Street driveway into the Cibo Restaurant site with curb, gutter and sidewalk beginning Tuesday August 7th. It is anticipated that the sidewalk area will be closed during this period. Work is expected to be completed by the end of the day on Friday August 10th. Shortly thereafter, three new on-street parking spaces will be also be installed placed where the driveway had been.
Pedestrian circulation on Bridgeway is not expected to be affected by the work. The work is being done, in part, to remove barriers for disabled persons and improve the City's conformance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Prior to the driveway demolition, the City and Breneman will identify, create and sign temporary pedestrian, wheelchair and sight-impaired persons detours to maintain safety for pedestrians and allow this project to be completed quickly.
Median Work on Bridgeway
Also beginning on August 7th, Breneman Inc. will be begin work to repair a damaged irrigation line serving the landscape median on Bridgeway near Saylor's Landing at 2007 Bridgeway. Work will involve excavating into the roadway from the median to a meter location in the sidewalk area. At least one lane of traffic will remain open in each direction at all times. Bike lane operation may be impacted temporarily by the work. Work is expected to be completed on or before August 10th.
Water Main Installation on Cazneau
Beginning on August 6th, Piazza Construction will be installing approximately 500 feet of new water main on Cazneau from Glen Drive to approximately 83 Cazneau. Piazza is working for Marin Municipal Water District and is authorized by a City Encroachment Permit. Work is expected to take two weeks. Due to the narrow roads, closure of road segments may be necessary. Detour signage will be set up to minimize impacts to non-local traffic. The contractor will be required to accommodate Emergency Vehicles and coordinate with routine services like trash pick-up. Residents of properties abutting the work will be provided daily updates on specific impacts to parking an access. More specific information about the project can be had by contacting Piazza Construction at (707) 876-3410.
Questions or concerns may be directed to City Engineer Todd Teachout via email at email@example.com or by phone at (415) 289-4111.

Public Meeting to Discuss New Plan Check Procedures
On Tuesday, August 21, 2012 at 11am we will hold a meeting to discuss a new concurrent plan check procedure. This new procedure is designed to be more time-efficient for building permit applicants as all plans will be reviewed by the various City divisions concurrently, as opposed to the process in place today, which is linearly. The new procedure is anticipated to be rolled out in September, 2012.
The steps in concurrent process are as follows:
1- Each applicant should initially contact the Permit Technician to determine the number of required sets of drawings to submit. The number of sets will be based upon the scope of work; some projects will require plans for the outside plan checker (CSG), Planning, Engineering and Fire. Others will only require CSG and Engineering. As many as 8 sets of plans may be required if plans are required for Planning, Engineering, Fire, Sewer and Environmental Health.
2- Upon submittal of a building permit application and the required number of plans, the Permit Technician will route a set of plans to each division. Initially, each division will have 10 working days to review the plans and provide comments back to the Permit Technician.
3- The Permit Technician will send the comments to the applicant following the review period.
4- The applicant will provide a response to each comment and revised sets of plans totaling the original number of plans submitted. The revised plans must notate the changes on the plans with bubbles. Only the most-recent changes should be bubbled; bubbles must be removed from previous changes. Appropriate use of bubbles will facilitate the staff's subsequent review of the plans.
5- Each division will have 5 working days to review the plans and provide comment.
6- If staff has follow-up comments on the revised plans each division will provide their respective comment(s) and subsequent rounds of review will occur as described above in Step 3.
7- If there are no comments on the revised plans each division will have 5 working days to approve the plans.
8- The building permit will then be issued.
Notably, this new concurrent process is more efficient than the process currently in place. Today plans are being reviewed consecutively—they are routed to Planning, and following Planning review, they are sent to Engineering, and so forth. By using the new concurrent process each division has a set amount of time to review their individual set of plans and provide comment at the same time. This provides surety to the applicant as to when comments will be received.
Contact Lilly Schinsing at 415/289-4134 or firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any questions.

Brevard, N.C. - The Tornados saw their program-best five-game winning streak come to an end Saturday as the Wingate University Bulldogs defeated Brevard 28-12 at Irwin Belk Stadium. BC (5-1, 1-1) has two straight home games upcoming on the schedule, the first of which is a 6:00 p.m. kickoff against the Tusculum College Pioneers October 10 at Brevard Memorial Stadium.
Brevard welcomes a Tusculum team that features a balanced air attack. Freshman Quarterback Bo Cordell takes over for the departed Cory Russell and leads an offense averaging over 27 points per game. He has completed nearly 62 percent of his passes for 1,602 yards, 10 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He is averaging over 320 yards per game through the air with All-American tight end Jarrell NeSmith leading the way, averaging almost 15 yards per reception and leading the team with 333 receiving yards. Marcus Foster is Cordell's favorite target with 30 receptions and three scores, while four of Calvin Britt's 11 receptions have gone for touchdowns. Tusculum boasts a ton of depth at the receiver position with six different Pioneer receivers achieving double-digit receptions this year and six different Tusculum players have caught a touchdown in 2009.
Last year Tusculum and Brevard combined to score 97 points and gain almost 900 yards of total offense in a 55-42 Pioneer victory. Tusculum led 28-7 after the first quarter and 55-28 with under eight minutes to play in the fourth but BC kept playing. Five Tornado turnovers led to three Pioneer scores. Donald Hudson rushed for two touchdowns. Trey Wilborn started at quarterback and rushed for 116 yards and a score. Desmond Wilson rushed for 64 yards and a score, and John Taylor returned from injury to run for 56 yards and a touchdown. Xavier Johnson also had a career high 74 rushing yards against the Pioneers.
Pioneers quarterback Corey Russell went 22-29 for 328 yards and four touchdowns in the game and also led the team with 7 carries for 73 yards and two scores. Ryan Tallent had 6 catches for 63 yards and two touchdowns in the Tusculum victory.
This season, the Pioneers enter the game with a record of 1-4 and 0-2 in the South Atlantic Conference, coming off of back-to-back home losses against Wingate and Lenoir-Rhyne. The Bears held Cordell without a touchdown pass for the first time in his brief career. The key to the game was seven Pioneer turnovers, including three Cordell interceptions which helped the Bears to a 38-17 victory. Lenoir-Rhyne ran for 299 yards on the ground against a Pioneer defense which is allowing 39 points per game and 466 yards of total offense per game, including 255 on the ground.
Brevard this past weekend ran for 238 yards against the Bulldogs but were hurt by big plays and untimely penalties. BC had a good start to their opening drive, getting the ball near midfield before being called for an illegal shift on a nine-yard Lawrence Martin run that moved them back and forced a punt.
Wingate quarterback Cody Haffly wasted no time as he found Philip Thomas for a 69-yard touchdown on the Bulldogs' first play from scrimmage. After another Watts punt, Wingate mounted their first sustained drive of the game. Vince Jordan ran it in from two yards to cap a seven play drive that covered 59 yards in 2:26. The Bulldogs led 14-0 with 6:55 to play in the first quarter and that proved to be the halftime margin as well. The Bulldogs got a 31-yard kickoff return from Marcus Davis to begin the third quarter. Working with excellent field position Haffly led Wingate on an 11-play drive that covered 59 yards in 4:03, culminated by a five-yard touchdown pass to Delric Ellington on a fade route. Haffly went 17-27 on the day for a career high 219 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. He completed passes to seven different receivers.
Down 21-0 the Tornados mounted their best drive of the game. Michael Crumbaker was integral in the 74-yard march. The Junior Quarterback ran for a game-high 98 yards on the day and continues to make great reads in the option game. Shaton Pratt's four-yard touchdown run capped off the 15-play drive that took 7:37 off the clock. Pratt finished with 58 yards rushing on seven carries. Chase Henry's extra point attempt went wide and BC faced a 21-6 deficit with 3:20 to play in the third quarter. BC possessed the ball for 32:56 of the game. The Tornados are averaging 308 yards on the ground per game and 31 points per game.
Brevard's defense forced a Wingate punt but the Tornados gave the ball right back after a fumbled exchange between Crumbaker and John Compton. Mico Drew's recovery set up Haffly and the Bulldogs with prime field position in the red zone. With plenty of time to throw the sophomore quarterback found Chris Bowden on a 20-yard post route for a touchdown and a 28-6 lead.
The Tornados continued to fight, and Eric Watts found the end zone for the first time this year on an eight-yard fade from Crumbaker, making it 28-12 but Crumbaker's two-point try fell incomplete. Watts had an all-around day, averaging over 44 yards per punt on his six punts, including a season-long 68-yard boot. Two of his punts landed inside the 20.
Stanley Jones led BC's defense with 11 tackles. He had 1.5 tackles for loss and a thunderous sack of backup quarterback James Hall late in the fourth quarter. Jones has 57 stops this year and is close to the nearly 10 tackle per game pace he had in 2008. Prince Simunyu posted his third consecutive game of double-digit stops. He made 10 tackles, one tackle for loss, and had eight solo stops. Simunyu leads the team with nine tackles for loss this year. Andrew Barrentine had a breakout game with seven tackles and a tackle for loss. Donald Hudson made three tackles and returned a Haffly interception 30 yards. The Tornados have allowed an average of 12.8 points per game and have held opponents to 99 yards rushing per game.
The Tornados can ensure the first winning season in modern program history with a win Saturday. The Tusculum game is the first true home game for BC since the Tornados hosted Chowan on September 12. BC will play at home two weeks in a row, as they will welcome Mars Hill to Brevard Memorial Stadium for a 6:00 p.m. kickoff October 17.
The kickoff time for Saturday's game is set for 6 p.m. at Brevard Memorial Stadium in Brevard, N.C. The shuttle buses begin running at noon and the gates will open at that time as well, two hours prior to the opening kickoff.
General admission to the game is $10 for adults.

WSJ's Peggy Noonan: Bin Laden Death Dissolved Into "Mystery," Obama's To Blame
Blog ››› ››› ERIC BOEHLERT
Proving again that in the age of Obama, some conservative pundits just can't resist giving comfort to fringy conspiracy theorists, the Wall Street Journal's Peggy Noonan over the weekend blamed the president for stoking the nutty fires that burn around the story of Osama bin Laden's death. Rather than condemning the kind of connect-the-invisible-dots nonsense that now consumes the far-right fever swamp, Noonan opts to blame the victim, Obama.
Coming in the wake of recent birther debacle, it seems Obama's partisan press critics didn't learn a thing about the dangers of hyping a deluded conspiracy theory. (Paging Donald Trump….) More distressing in terms of Noonan's column is how she casually tries to mainstream the conspiracy madness that's infected the conservative movement by suggesting everybody does it.
They don't. But Obama haters sure do.
Noonan writes:
However, and with our president there is always a however, he has spent almost every moment since his Sunday night speech displaying both a tin ear and a chronic tendency to misunderstand his own country. His refusal to release more evidence that Osama is dead is allowing a great story to dissolve into a mystery. He is letting a triumph turn into a conspiracy theory.
Wringing her hands, Noonan's supposedly concerned that Obama dented his counterterrorism victory by failing to release detailed information about the raid. (Where's the DNA evidence?!) But according to the recent Gallup poll, nine out of ten Americans approved of bin Laden's killing and more than 70 percent think Obama should get some of the credit. (So much for his victory for being "tarnished.")
And in terms of the bin Laden corpse photos that Noonan's so upset haven't been released, an NBC poll indicates two-thirds of Americans are fine with the president's decision to not to make them public. So again, it's Noonan who's out of touch and who doesn't understand the country, not Obama. It's Noonan who's flashing a tin ear by robotically assuming that so many decisions Obama makes are the wrong ones.
Meanwhile, note how Noonan claims the bin Laden killing has dissolved into a "mystery." Really? Who exactly considers it to be a "mystery"? And that's what's so distasteful about Noonan's blame-the-victim routine in singling out Obama for faming the conspiracy flames. It's wildly irresponsible how Noonan tries to subtly mainstream the right-wing junk that now passes as debate. It's distasteful how Noonan suggests it's now normal to rally around dopey conspiracy theories:
People believe nothing. They think everything is spin and lies. The minute a government says A is true, half the people on Earth know A is a lie. And when people believe nothing, as we know, they will believe anything. We faked the moon landing, there was a second gunman in Dallas, the World Trade Center was blown up in a U.S.-Zionist conspiracy, Hitler grew old in Argentina.
There will always be people who believe conspiracy theories, and with the Internet there will be more. They are impervious to evidence. But people who care about the truth need to be armed with evidence to refute them.
Um, no. It's not "people" who believe everything is a lie. It's not "people" who refuse to accept anything the government tells them when a Democrat's in the White House. And it's not "people" who are impervious to evidence.
Those are the Obama haters.
The skeptics Noonan describes are the ones camped out in the right-wing fever swamp and the ones whose common sense has been so clouded by hatred for the president that they're forced to cling to any illogical claim about him. That's who Noonan's describing, but she pretends that's how mainstream America thinks today. (i.e. The darn Internet!).
But it's not. The American masses have never wallowed in that kind of nonsense. And there's no indication that they're buying into the so-called deather tale that bin Laden's still alive and maybe Obama lied to the nation last week as part of a massive cover-up.
Trust me, there's nothing wrong with healthy skepticism about what the government tells you. Nonetheless, it's a bit comical to watch proudly patriotic pundits like Noonan and others on the GOP side suddenly play nice with conspiracy theorists who, with a Democratic president, suddenly insist you can't trust the government, you can't trust the White House, you can't trust the Pentagon, and you can't even trust Navy SEALs. (They're all in on it??)
Did the recent birther charade teach the conservative media nothing? Didn't the far-right opinion press learn a painful lesson from allowing the birther story to consume so much of its landscape, only to be utterly debunked by the White House, which effectively pantsed them all, by releasing the president's long-form birth certificate?
The lessons not learned: You don't sympathize with the nut jobs. You call them out. And you certainly don't blame the president for the fact that his haters are hating again.
I mean, was it former president Bush's fault that he didn't release enough "evidence" to disprove the crazies who were convinced he was in on the planning of the 9/11 attack? Of course it wasn't his fault. So why does Noonan shift the burden of proof onto Obama? Why does Noonan concoct a can't-win rule for Obama: Release more "evidence" so conspiracy theoristswho don't pay attention to "evidence" will be satisfied.
Yeah, that's a wise use of the president's time and prestige.
Condemn the kooks Peggy, don't empower them by suggesting it's the president's fault for not meeting their delusional threshold of "proof" about bin Laden's killing. Don't suggest they have a right to peddle obvious lies.
And don't blame the president for the rapid spread of Obama Derangement Syndrome.

LONDON, Ohio (AP) -- A central Ohio man has been sentenced to eight years in prison for amassing a collection of more than 177,000 child pornography images on his home computer.
Prosecutors in Madison County, west of Columbus, called 44-year-old Donald Lemasters the worst child-pornography purveyor they had ever seen.
The Columbus Dispatch (http://bit.ly/XljQpX ) reports that Common Pleas Judge Robert Nichols handed down the prison sentence over the pleas of Lemasters' wife, who told the judge that prison time would make life too difficult for their five children.
Lemasters was charged in August 2011 after a Franklin County Internet-crimes task force linked him to an illegal file-sharing website. Prosecutors have said they found no evidence that he took any of the photos, and none of the children appeared to be from the area.

The American Soldier, 1814
While peace negotiations to end the War of 1812 were taking place at Ghent in late 1814, the British decided to continue an operation that had been planned earlier. This was to be a raid upon the Gulf coast to capture New Orleans and possibly separate Louisiana from the United States. The Americans, having received early word of the British intentions, placed their southern defenses under the command of Maj. Gen. Andrew Jackson. Jackson arrived at New Orleans on 2 December and began making preparations to meet the British expedition.
The British force, under Major General Keane, made good progress. Arriving at the mouth of Lake Borgne on 10 December, they met and captured the American gunboat flotilla on that lake four days later. After that they conducted an undetected reconnaissance to within six miles of New Orleans.
News of the gunboats' capture caused consternation. Jackson placed the city under martial law and concentrated his scattered troop detachments nearby. General Coffee with his mounted riflemen arrived on 19 December, and Tennessee and Mississippi volunteers, under General Carroll, arrived a few days later. In and around the city itself Jackson had two regular regiments, the 7th and the 44th; a thousand state militia; a battalion of three hundred city volunteers; a rifle company of about sixty; a battalion of free blacks, mostly refugees from Santo Domingo; and twenty-eight Choctaw Indians. It was fortunate that Jackson's men had concentrated quickly, for at noon on 23 December the British advance force, a light brigade of about nineteen hundred men under Lieutenant Colonel Thornton, appeared on the banks of the Mississippi at the Villere plantation about nine miles from New Orleans, where they were to camp for the night. Jackson was told of the British arrival and decided to attack that evening. The main body of about thirteen hundred led by him would make a frontal attack, and Coffee with approximately seven hundred would hit from the flank while the armed schooner Carolina in the river would sweep the British with its guns. The action began well. The Carolina commenced her bombardment at 7:00 p.m. and soon after, Jackson and Coffee engaged the surprised British. But the early winter night had fallen and with the night came fog. Men became separated from their units and soon the action became a melee with squads and individuals meeting, often fighting hand-to-hand with little overall control. At first the Americans were successful, but the British steadied with the arrival of reinforcements. After about an hour and a half of this confusion, Jackson broke off the action and withdrew his troops. He was followed by Coffee an hour later. The Americans lost 213 killed and wounded. British casualties totaled 267.
The painting shows the Choctaws and a mixed group of Major Daquin's Battalion of Free Men of Colour. The latter were mostly attired in civilian clothes because they had been organized only for a few weeks. They are led by an officer distinguishable by his sword and red sash. Facing them are members of the British 85th Regiment in red coats with yellow facings and white lace, and members of the British 95th Regiment in green uniforms with black facings and white lace.
