In an obscene escalation of the online #MeToo campaign against sexual predation, last week a New York geneticist compared having her rear end grabbed to the horrors of Auschwitz.
Dr. Jennifer Listman's tale of aggressive sexual misconduct by famed Holocaust writer Elie Wiesel – completely at odds with his public persona – is making the rounds of traditional and social media. Her uncorroborated accusation arrives in the wake of sexual harassment and sexual assault claims against Hollywood executive Harvey Weinstein (and before him, Bill O'Reilly, Bill Cosby, Bill Clinton, and others).
Listman joined the #MeToo online response to the scandals with her claim – repeated in Newsweek, Salon, and elsewhere – that in 1989, when she was 19 years old, Wiesel posed next to her for a charity dinner group photo and "over a period of seconds" touched her backside. Soon his "right hand had reached my right ass cheek, which he squeezed."
And that's it.
(Requisite disclaimer: grabbing someone's posterior without permission is piggish, condemnable behavior.)
Remember the context: the recent accusations against powerful men in entertainment, news, and politics involve non-consensual intercourse, career repercussions for refusing sex, and rape of unconscious drugged women.
In her desire to shout "#MeToo!" about her own celebrity bad-touch, Listman has not only equated that incident with much more extensive sexual misconduct, she has had the chutzpah to compare her brief unwanted squeeze to Elie Wiesel's agony in Auschwitz.
Wiesel, of course, won the 1986 Nobel Peace Prize as the moral conscience of the Holocaust generation. Not only was he responsible for helping us understand yesterday's evil, his books and speeches have helped us fight today's and tomorrow's. Yet now an American Jewish woman is trying to sully that legacy by talking about "his evil act."
Evil act? Elie Wiesel's mother and sister suffocated in Nazi gas chambers soon after the family was deported to Auschwitz. At Buchenwald, he witnessed his father being beaten (he soon died) and for decades suffered great shame he could not intervene to help him. He had an effing number tattooed on his arm for the rest of his life.
Listman's use of the word evil is no accident. Her 4,000-word screed at the no-editors web site Medium builds a rambling, free-association case that Wiesel is supposed to represent goodness, but she knows his secret: that he's not "objectively good" and by extension, "there are no good people." The Holocaust is the black-and-white Exhibit A for the worldview of good guys and bad guys – and Jennifer Listman wants the world to know that Elie Wiesel isn't one of the good guys because Jennifer Listman experienced an unpleasant grab three decades ago.
Note that no other women have come forward (so far). That Wiesel had no power over Listman's career. That there was no intercourse of any kind demanded or experienced. And that Wiesel's death last year erases any risk he'll repeat the behavior.
The ongoing news of late 2017 has empowered countless women to divulge experiences of sexual misconduct and hold men accountable for bad acts. But Americans have become so oversensitive to the validity of women's testimony that we've lost sight that there are many degrees of tackiness, nastiness, offensiveness, and (yes) evil.
If everything is evil, then nothing is evil. Listman (and, often, America's larger victim culture) is choosing to devalue and degrade the word bank of horror by applying it to anything bad. In her grandiose final paragraph, she boasts of "robbing the Jewish community of a leader (and) the world of a symbol."
Pay attention: she's not saying Elie Wiesel should lose his honored status because despite his accomplishments, he also victimized women. She's saying he shouldn't be "lauded as some kind of Tzadik" (righteous person) because he "molested" her. For a few seconds.
Unless she is immediately repudiated, she could be right. Elie Wiesel's name may forever have an asterisk next to it, with the fact the episode was brief with a single witness eclipsed by the solitary word "sexual." (Roman Polanski, Gary Hart, and Woody Allen have such asterisks.) All for an alleged 10 seconds or so.
Listman's penultimate paragraph demands of people like me who find her exaggerations distasteful, irresponsible, even pathetic: "Don't speak."
Well, no.
Listman is offering a single harsh data point about a man deserving of great praise. Had she taken her #MeToo moment to write on Facebook, "Yeah, I too have been a victim – Elie Wiesel grabbed my butt when I was 19" that would be interesting and deserving of respectful consideration. Instead, she has put great effort into permanently tarnishing the reputation of a moral giant.
Don't speak? Look in the mirror, Dr. Listman.

About Us
In 1998 a community service project named Pusat Berdikari Seremban (PBS) was set up by the Wesley Methodist Church of Seremban. Its aim was to provide training to people with learning disabilities. On 5th April 2008 Persatuan Berdikari Seremban Negeri Sembilan (PBSNS) was incorporated as a society under the Societies Act 1966 of Malaysia to take over the work of PBS. In 2009 PBSNS purchased the adjacent building to expand our training capacity from 25 to 40 as well as establish our administrative office and meeting and teaching rooms to enlarge our rented space at the ground floor of our founding church office building.
In 2003 and 2004 we added on bakery and handicraft works to our skills training on top of straw packing. In 2011 we added on a training cafe to give hands on training of serving and hospitality skills to the trainees.
The current enrolment is 22-25 trainees with 3 full time staff and about 12-15 volunteers assisting them.
2014 Persatuan Berdikari Seremban Negri Sembilan. All rights reserved.
We try to level the playing field by giving the learning disabled a better chance to compete.

� � � � � � � �
Jake Palmer feels he is on a dead-end
road. A corporate trainer who teaches
others that everyone is a bottle with a
blank label, Jake actually suspects that
his own label says he's not enough.
After a physical confrontation at
a gas station in Washington state
leaves Jake severely burned and his
marriage begins to deteriorate, Jake
slowly succumbs to self-deprecation
and depression. Although his heart
isn't in it, he agrees to join his friends
for an annual summer gathering at a
lake house. Though he has helped his
friends a lot with their own lives, Jake
is bitter and no longer trusts God due
to the accident that changed his life
forever. While leaving a disastrous
business trip in Chicago on an airplane,
Jake meets straight-talking Leonard,
who had snuck into his motivational
lecture. In the course of the ride,
Leonard persuades Jake to start afresh
this year at Willow Lake, where local
legend has it that a corridor at the
end of the lake is a portal leading to
the heart's desire. Entwined nicely
with Jake's work concerning personal
re;ection and self-knowledge, the
concept quickly takes over the story's
momentum. Rubart's (The Five

and unobtrusive, making it easy to
visualize the beauty and peace of the
lake house. Key themes of forgiveness,
rebirth, and emotional healing emerge
organically through Jake's struggles.
Rubart will leave readers inspired to
ponder what the label is on their bottle.

American cellular biologist, college professor and politician Barry Commoner claimed that the first law of ecology is that everything is connected to everything else. It took decades for the environmental concerns to be embedded in public life and even more decades for the first actions in favor of the environment to occur.
We start to understand only today what Commoner meant in the early 1970's, suggesting that the global economy should be restructured to conform to the unbending laws of ecology. For example, he argued that polluting products, such as detergents or synthetic textiles, should be replaced with natural products, like soap or cotton and wool. His bestselling book, The Closing Circle, was one of the first to bring the idea of sustainability to a mass audience.
The earlier the production technologies are sustainable, the better.
Sustainable development aims to meet the needs of present generations without jeopardising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It provides a comprehensive approach bringing together economic, social and environmental considerations in ways that mutually reinforce each other. While numerous studies denounce today the catastrophic nature of the planet condition caused by human activities, the private sector industries are slow to adapt its means of production to environmental constraints.
Antagonism between environmental quality and economic growth led to postpone the transformation of the major systems of production for way too long. The environmental crisis is a global problem and only global action will resolve it. For Steven Cohen, the Executive Director at Columbia University's Earth Institute, we must develop and deploy the technology to create a renewable resource-based economy. We cannot keep using materials and dumping the waste in a hole in the ground.
This is a non-sense that ultimately lead to a dead end with critical consequences. And that's precisely where the private sector in Europe need regulations so much, because it cannot make the transition from a waste-based economy to a renewable one by itself. This transition can only happen if the EU create a public-private partnership. In a complex economy on a crowded planet, the Union is compelled to set the rules that respond to the complexity and planetary stress that our global economy has created.
Just as the regulation of Wall Street builds confidence in the public marketplace for capital, we need rules to ensure that economic life does not destroy the planet that provides us with food, air and water. It's common sense that the European Parliament, the EU Council and Commission unpurposedly – or purposedly – took time to apply.
The latest edition of WWF's Living Planet Report showed that in just over 40 years, the world has witnessed a nearly 60% decline in wildlife across land, sea and freshwater and is heading towards a shocking decline of two-thirds by 2020. This has happened in less than a generation. Failing to take up on the challenge of Climate Change for a sustainable Europe is not an option.
Do the European Union have the shoulders to succeed the challenge of environmental sustainability?
The election of Donald Trump, his general policy and the US withdrawal from international institutions forced the European Union to play a leading role for a sustainable future. As we begin the conversion from a fossil fuel-based economy to one based on renewable energy and other reusable resources, the EU must play its part.
Beyond playing the referee between industries and NGOs, the Union ought to confront the corporate domain at its most powerful and guarded point in order to speed up the transition process and become a world leader. Even though 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets for 2030 have been set, we might wonder about its chance of success and whether it is not already too late to improve Earth's environmental conditions.
Indeed, the reactions to the refugee crisis suggest that solidarity among the Union 's member states is weak. Furthermore, euroscepticism added to populism is on the rise. The EU capacity to implement domestic reforms and its position as a global power are being severely undermined by centrifugal forces within Europe and the risk that the EU will disintegrate. In addition, according to a new report from Nature, "the window for limiting warming to below 1.5 degrees Celsius with high probability and without temporarily exceeding that level already seems to have closed.
Therefore, all the hope we have left now is our ability to limit the negative effects of climate change. So yes, more natural catastrophes will happen in the near future such as severe drought, winter blizzards, category-5 hurricanes and tsunamis, causing people to migrate massively to safer lands.
Setting the 2030 agenda might satisfy NGO's, politicians and concerned citizens today, but these initiatives are clearly not enough if we individually continue to consume and power our lives the way we do right now. Natural resources will be irreversibly damaged by 2030.
Our planet is heading for a crash of natural systems, which any central bank cannot fix. But we can limit the havoc if a major adjustment happen in the way we consume, think and imagine industries and business practices. This must happen now.
The risk is that the EU 2030 Agenda don't level up with the expectations and be a missed opportunity. Unless the Union rage against climate change and make the private sector players bend to adopt today an environmental sustainable solution to their development strategies, the transition for a sustainable Europe will be, soon or later, forgotten.

When theatre runs in the family: The Khuranas
Akash Khurana and his two sons, Akarsh and Adhaar are AKvarious. Akash's wife, Meera, has directed four plays under the banner, and Akarsh's wife Dilshad Edibam Khurana, has been in theatre for more than a decade.brunch Updated: Jan 14, 2017 17:58 IST
Akash Khurana and his two sons, Akarsh and Adhaar are AKvarious - one of the most prolific theatre companies today. But they are not the only theatre people in the family. Akash's wife Meera, who has already directed four plays under the banner, recently made her acting debut in Rage Production's Siddhus of Upper Juhu, and Akarsh's wife Dilshad Edibam Khurana has been working in theatre for more than a decade.
"Recently, she has also turned director with a kid's play, but not under our banner. Both the ladies have chosen to work outside home banners because we can't afford them," Akarsh complains.
However, Akarsh got both of them into direction. When AKvarious had an opportunity to do a children's play, he put Meera in command. "I was asked to do a play for Prithvi's Summertime but was busy with other commitments. They wanted something on Enid Blyton and mom is a fan. So I thought, who better than her! For my uncle who lives in Nagpur and also runs a theatre company, asked the production house to get in touch with meas he was busy. In turn, I asked Dilshad to fill in for me and it just worked out beautifully from there," he reveals.
His brother Adhaar began work as a forensic expert, but soon realised he was being side-lined at dinner table discussions, which are almost always served with theatre-related topics. Today he is as active as the others. "He would still love to be part of a play by not being part of it, or by ghost directing it, but when he directs he does a damn good job," says Akash of his younger son.
Although his mother was part of an amateur theatre group, for Akash theatre was about annual days in school and activity groups in college and university. "I was always part of it and did some interesting work, but it was a hobby," says Akash. He began taking it seriously simply because he happened to be at the right place at the right time. But he never gave up his day job.
"To be a theatre family, the first thing you need to do is to sustain the family and that was not possible without a regular job," says Akash. "Even now, there aren't many theatre actors who survive only by doing theatre. That big switch, however wonderful it might sound, is not realistic."
As time went by, Akash became more and more involved with theatre, working closely with people like Satyadev Dubey and Sunil Shanbag, and the family seamlessly eased into the theatre world.
"We were starring in Dubey's plays, all our friends were from theatre, Akarsh was literally brought up by the theatre community," says Meera reminiscing about attending the rehearsals while pregnant, when Dubey ordered special meals for her and made sure she had a stool to put her feet up.
Although she was a teacher, and not at all interested in acting, Dubey wanted the whole family to attend rehearsals. He asked her to do costumes and she did them for Abe Bewakoof and Sambhog Se Sanyas Tak.
"When Akarsh was born, he was literally brought up by the theatre community. I was always at rehearsals. Akarsh was an easy baby. He was unusually quiet during the plays," says Meera.
"I have absolutely zero memory of these, and I have a feeling that I was 'unusually quiet' because I was usually asleep!" retorts Akarsh whose first brush with acting was at the age of eight when he shared the stage with Benjamin Gilani, Naseeruddin Shah and of course, his dad. The play was Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Once begun, he never stopped. Now the family has five directors, who double up as actors and they have worked in almost every permutation and combination possible.
"Although we share our views and often incorporate suggestions from one another, whoever is directing the play gets to have the last say. You can't let your personal equations get in the way of a play. We have played a gay couple, my father and brother have romanced my wife, and a few days before I married Dilshaan, she played my daughter on stage!" says Akarsh.
"Now that sounds like a rather incestuous family to me," guffaws Akash.

Selling Brands and Technology to Godrej & Boyce Manufacturing Co Ltd Updating 2018 Guidance for Impact
CHARLOTTE, N.C., July 2, 2018 (Globe Newswire) -- SPX Corporation (NYSE:SPXC) announced today that it is exiting the Heat Transfer business within its Engineered Solutions segment. As part of the exit, SPX has sold its Yuba® and Ecolaire® brands and the technology of its Heat Transfer business to Godrej & Boyce Manufacturing Co Ltd, a private industrial conglomerate based in India. SPX anticipates winding down its remaining Heat transfer operations by the end of Q1 2019.
Gene Lowe, President and Chief Executive Officer of SPX commented, "Exiting the Heat Transfer business substantially completes the reshaping of our Engineered Solutions segment and our move away from power generation-focused businesses. We anticipate seeing a return to revenue growth in this segment in 2019."
SPX intends to exclude the results of Heat Transfer from its 2018 adjusted results and is updating 2018 guidance accordingly. Core revenue* is now expected to be $1.38-$1.43 billion (from $1.40-1.45 billion prior). There is no impact to current Adjusted EPS guidance of $2.15-$2.25 given the limited effect of Heat Transfer on SPX's net profitability.
About SPX Corporation: SPX Corporation is a supplier of highly engineered products and technologies, holding leadership positions in the HVAC, detection and measurement, and engineered solutions markets. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, SPX Corporation had approximately $1.4 billion in annual revenue in 2017 and more than 5,000 employees in 14 countries. SPX Corporation is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "SPXC." For more information, please visit www.spx.com.
*Core results exclude the results of our South African projects.
Non-GAAP Information: The guidance presented in this release, "Core revenue," "Engineered Solutions' Core segment income margin," and "Adjusted earnings per share," are non-GAAP financial measures and are calculated by the company in a manner consistent with the presentation of such measures as included in its May 3, 2018 press release announcing the results of operations for the first quarter of 2018. Core revenue, Engineered Solutions' Core segment income margin, and Adjusted earnings per share exclude items, which would be included in our financial measures presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), that we do not consider indicative of our on-going performance. These items include, but are not limited to, acquisition costs, costs associated with dispositions, the results of our South African projects, and potential non-cash income or expense items associated with changes in market interest rates and actuarial or other data related to our pension and postretirement plans, as the ultimate aggregate amounts associated with these items are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Because of the forward-looking nature of the estimated range of Core revenue, Engineered Solutions' Core segment income margin and Adjusted earnings per share, it is impractical to present a quantitative reconciliation of such measures to a comparable GAAP measure, and accordingly no such GAAP measure is being presented.
Certain statements in this press release, including the Core revenue guidance, Engineered Solutions' Core segment income margin guidance and Adjusted earnings per share guidance, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to the safe harbor created thereby. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from future express or implied results. Particular risks facing SPX include risks relating to market specific cycles and weather related fluctuations; economic, business, and other risks stemming from changes in the economy; legal and regulatory risks; cost of raw materials; pricing pressures; our reliance on U.S. revenues and international operations; its 2015 spin-off transaction; the effectiveness, success, and timing of restructuring plans; its ability to manage changes and measure and estimate the expected revenue and cost associated with our power projects in South Africa; pension funding requirements; liabilities retained in connection with dispositions; and integration of acquisitions and achievement of anticipated synergies. More information regarding such risks can be found in SPX's most recent annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Although the company believes that the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. In addition, estimates of future operating results are based on the company's current complement of businesses, which is subject to change.
Statements in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release, and SPX disclaims any responsibility to update or revise such statements.

Ask SWC: What Is Unified Device Management
Unified Device Management is a buzz term we are hearing more and more these days due to the consumerization of mobile products and the gaining popularity and acceptance of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies in the workplace. Watch our recent episode of "Ask SWC" to learn more about our favorite Unified Device Management tools.
BYOD is becoming more popular and common these days, as users want to choose the devices they work on inside and outside of the workplace. Traditionally this has presented a huge problem for IT departments in many organizations wanting to manage users' devices in order to protect corporate data and applications and maintain security and compliance.
Unified Device Management is a great solution to both concerns and can be achieved by two Microsoft products – Windows Intune, a Mobile Device Management platform and Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager. System Center Configuration Manager helps IT keep maintain security policies, update software, monitor statuses and give users access to the applications they desire on the devices they choose. While Windows Intune provides a cloud based solution to enable remote users to use the devices they choose. We like these two products because they are seamlessly integrated, so if you have System Center Configuration Manager 2012 on your internal environment to manage all of your internal resources, we can simply integrate that into the recent version of Windows Intune, which will provide an extension to managing mobile devices, work group computers and even your user's home computers, should you need to.
Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager and Windows Intune will provide your organization with a platform for very deep and robust management of all of the PCs and devices in your environment, whether they're internal, external, company owned or personally owned.
To learn more about System Center Configuration Manager and Mobile Device Management, please join us for our next Microsoft System Center Luncheon or follow Brad Ellison on LinkedIn.

It must be every man's dream to have their very own man cave – a place that he can escape to in the comfort of his own home and enjoy peace, solitude, and the opportunity to play to his heart's content, no matter what's going on in the rest of the house. However, if you're lucky enough to have plenty of space in your home to create the perfect man cave, where do you begin when it comes to equipping and furnishing it?
In this guide, we help you to make all the right siting, decorating and purchasing decisions so that you can design a man cave that ticks all your boxes and gives you the ideal sanctuary where you can hide away from the world and really indulge in all your masculine passions!
Step One – Choosing A Location
The very first thing you need to do when creating your man cave is to find the perfect location in your home. Obviously, you may have little choice over this element – if you only have one spare room in your house that will obviously be the one that you have to use. However, if you have a number of options, you might want to consider some of the most popular spots. Attic conversions are often a good choice since they are well away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the home. Alternatively, a garden shed or garage could be the right option for you, especially if you have a large family and want complete peace and quiet out of range of those noisy kids! Some people choose to use a spare bedroom while others opt for the basement where they can stretch out and really relax.
Step Two – Decorating Your Space
Once you've made the all-important decision of where to locate your man cave, the next stage is to decorate it to suit your tastes and requirements. You may want to consider insulating and sound-proofing the space so that you won't disturb the rest of the house and the rest of the household won't disturb you! You may want to paint the walls a bright shade to reflect your vibrant personality or to lighten a dark space. Alternatively, a dark shade on the walls could add to the atmosphere if you want to create a sense of being in a theater or gaming space.
Step Three – Selecting Furniture And Accessories
Comfortable seating is a vital component of any man cave. A cozy sofa, a well padded office chair at the PC, or a state of the art gaming chair placed in front of your favorite console may be items that you wish to consider. Other furnishings you might want to include are tables (for holding drinks and magazines), a shelf for displaying your top gaming titles (or your sporting trophies) and a few compact chairs for seating your friends when they come round. You'll probably also want to add a small set of drawers or a compact cabinet where you can store items such as your game controllers, spare batteries, headphones and extension cables when you aren't using them.
Step Four – Consider Lighting
A dimmer switch for your lighting could be perfect if you want the freedom to vary light levels to suit the different activities that you plan to do, and curtains or shades will almost certainly be essential if you want to watch TV or play video games without sunlight spoiling the experience. You might even want to add some mood lighting in the form of a couple of small lamps.
Step Five – Choosing Equipment
Now we come to the fun part! Choosing all of the key equipment that you want to add to your man cave is an exciting task that you should think about carefully. A TV is, of course, an essential, although the size of the screen will depend on the size of your space. You'll certainly want to install your favorite gaming consoles and perhaps your PC or laptop. A mini-fridge and a bar are two popular items that many men include in their man cave design, while many more choose to add juke boxes or pinball machines. Sporting equipment can also add even more entertainment value. Whether you've always wanted your own table tennis table, pool table or dartboard, this is a must-have. If you play a musical instrument, this is the ideal spot in your home to keep it. This is especially the case if you've chosen to sound-proof your space since you can even practice your drumming or channel your inner Slash on your electric guitar without waking up the entire neighborhood!
Step Six – The Final Touches
The last step in finalizing your man cave is choosing the last few touches to complete the look. Decorations for your walls could come in the form of favorite photos, neon signs or funny posters with hilarious slogans. You could frame posters from your favorite video games, bands or movies, or even put up some of your own artwork if you have hidden talents! Finally, it's time to display all of your treasured memorabilia. From your Star Wars toy collection to your sporting trophies, and from your signed baseball glove to your photos of key moments in your life, your man cave is the ideal spot to showcase all of the items that are most precious to you. Spread a scattering of gaming magazines around on the table, put out all of your coolest gadgets and any other unusual and unique items that you've picked up over the years, and your man cave is good to go!
Now that you've completed your man cave, it's time to invite all your mates around for fun and games – although you might want to enjoy your first gaming session in your own special space on your own before letting all the guys in! You're sure to love your new man cave, and you're bound to wonder why you didn't create one sooner! Enjoy!

Rolls are short patterns of sounds (or sequences) where the sounds do not merge or morph into each other but are distinct.
At the top of the Roll Page is the title of the Roll. The next row shows the tempo group the Roll belongs to, the beatboxer who made the Roll, the difficulty level of the Roll, and an audio preview play/pause button.
The next section shows the roll itself in grid of square boxes which you can click on to hear the Sounds or Sequences used in the roll.
The Sound icons are square to show that they play a sound when they are clicked on and do not link to other pages like the round icons do.
Every Roll has a video demonstration of the Roll which you can watch to aid learning.
Finally, you are shown what patterns use the roll.

This is one of my very favorite pieces, especially for Lent. I may have put it up here in past years. This miserere reminds us all that Lent is a time of conversion. In Benedictinism we are reminded that we fall and get up, fall and get up. In Christianity to be brought to our knees in repentance is to be raised to a profound dignity as human beings. Let us not be afraid or reluctant to be moved to our knees in this way. It is astounding how beautiful reality is from this position!

GLWS. Hope this beauty goes to a good home.
Up for sale is my 2004 Silver-gray / Natural Brown ZHP sedan with manual transmission. I purchased this car from a fellow mafia member, Mike Mooney, in April 2017 when it had 113,000 miles. It now has almost 115,000 miles. Obviously, its not my daily driver. The problem is, according to my wife, is that I have too many weekend cars?! My other weekend cars are a 2001 e39 5 speed with a low mileage ZHP motor and a 1972 turbocharged Alfa Berlina. So it has been a hard decision between the e39 and the e46. Particularly because the color combo of this ZHP sedan is very rare; only 14 with manual transmissions were brought to the USA in this color combo. I thought if I was going to own a ZHP sedan long term, then a rare color combo would be the one to own. Once I talked with Mike and learned the cars documented maintenance history, I bought it sight unseen and had it shipped to CA.
Because Ive always maintained/repaired my cars myself, Im very picky that they perform as they were intended. Over my two year ownership, the following maintenance/repairs have been performed:
New Hankook Evo V12 tires (f&r) ;
Wheels Powder coated
Drilled Front Brake Rotors w/ Akebono pads (f&r) new brake fluid
New Front control arms with Powerflex rear bushings
New steering coupling; new engine and trans mounts; Powerflex sway bar bushings
New power steering pump, reservoir/filter and fluid
Transmission & Differential Oils changed
DISA valve rebuilt with German Auto Solutions Kit
Transmission shifter bushings replaced
Rear Differential Support Bushing replaced
Burned out ZKW Bixenons replaced with Morimoto D2S 4.0 projectors
New hood insulation
Broken radio volume knob repaired
Now you understand why I havent driven many miles! Of course, sorting a car mechanically is only part of the process. Why not improve/upgrade areas that can make the car even more enjoyable to own and drive? One of the previous owners, fellow mafia member Jeff Cadell, obviously believes the same . Besides replacing the clutch/flywheel and fuel pump around 85K miles, he also added LED Angel eyes, Dinan Stage 1 software tune and a BMW Performance airbox during his ownership.
The upgrades / improvements that I made to this car include:
Eibach Pro Kit Springs ( their mildest street spring)
Koni FSD struts and shocks
ECS front shock tower brace
Reinforced upper strut and shock supports
AFE intake air scoop
Matte Black front grille
Recovered Leather Steering wheel (sourced from Germany)
5 Star paint protectant/sealant
Previous preventative maintenance/repairs made by prior owners include:
Oil pan gasket and oil filter housing gasket replaced at 80k miles
Vanos rebuilt and valve cover gasket replaced at 93K miles
CCV valve and breather hoses replaced at 100K miles
Complete Cooling System refresh at 106K miles
Like many of you, Ive been watching the sales of manual ZHPs on the Mafia BB as well as BringATrailer (BaT). Recently there was a Mystic Blue / Natural Brown manual ZHP with 109K miles that auctioned for $14,500 on BaT. Besides a modified exhaust, the car was basically stock. Looked like a very nice, one owner car. Great color combo. However, no mention of any repairs typically required around 100K miles: valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, clutch, cooling system refresh, front control arm bushings, etc. I suspect the new buyer will be addressing many of these items before too many miles.
Im over 60 now and Ive bought and sold numerous cars in my life. My cars are always sorted mechanically during my ownership and sold that way. This ZHP performs better than stock; its steering/handling is awesome! I had a local independent BMW shop perform a pre purchase inspection 500 miles ago, and he really liked the car. Obviously, he knows BMWs and is a good judge of when they are right. His only recommendation was to replace the rear differential support bushing that had some cracking. So I replaced it.
Given all the preventative maintenance and upgrades this car has received, in addition to its unique color combination, I think this car is worth $14,500 too. Im hoping there a fellow Mafia member who is looking for a great weekend road car and agrees. Feel free to call me at 714 501-2163 if you are interested.

What a fabulous looking - and cared for - ZHP. Based on recent Bring a Trailer sales, I think your asking price is fair but clearly at the top of the market. And you have to consider that modified cars, no matter how well done, generally command lower values than original cars. GLWTS!

Car SOLD this morning for $14K. New owner, Dennis, lives in Berkeley so this car will stay on the West Coast. Like me, Dennis found the color combo very desirable, as well as the modifications and service/maintenance history. Plans to keep the car as a weekend fun car, which was my hope and desire for this car too. Hard to see this car ever losing value from this price point, especially with limited miles going forward. So happy I found the right buyer !
Thanks also to the ZHP Mafia BB ! Just donated $100 to support operations too.... Thanks again to everyone who made comments or expressed interest !

Screamin' Eagles split to finish regular season
With sectional tournaments fast approaching, the Lewiston-Altura/Rushford-Peterson (LARP) wrestling team finished up their regular season with a pair of dual meets last week. The Screamin' Eagles visited the La Crescent-Hokah Lancers Thursday, Feb. 7, then hosted the Dover-Eyota Eagles on Saturday, Feb. 9.
LARP vs. La Crescent-Hokah (L-H)
Riding wins in six contested matches, the Screamin' Eagles added a tally in their victory column. LARP also benefitted from forfeits in four weight classes to triumph over the Section 1AA Lancers 44-15.
Ross Herber got things started for LARP at 120 pounds, scoring a 9-0 major decision over the Lancers' Joey Schreier. Kolton Riser followed right up, picking up a great win by scoring a fall at 0:37 of his 138-pound bout with Derek Carter.
The Lancers rebounded when Ty Mallicoat prevailed in an 8-3 decision over LARP's Tristyn Hegland at 145 pounds. But Dominic Jenkins responded with a 13-2 major decision over L-H's Dylan Worrell at 152, and Jacob Meyer took it to the Lancers' Dylan Schultz with a 9-7 decision at 170. Noah Herber made it three LARP wins in a row when he notched a 5-3 decision over Colton Jorgenson at 182 pounds.
LARP vs. Dover-Eyota
The parent's night match vs. the Section 1A and Three Rivers Conference (TRC) foe Dover-Eyota Eagles was a tough one. LARP wrestlers battled hard, but the Eagles held an 8-5 edge in contested matches and got a bonus in the form of one forfeited match to triumph 44-25.
The Eagles' Brodie Kellen kicked things off for D-E, scoring a fall at 1:55 of his 106-pound match with Tyler Kreidermacher. Jacob Dessner made it a pair when he notched a fall at 1:55 of the 113-pound bout with LARP's Jordan Zibrowski. Ross Herber retaliated, scoring a 13-1 major decision over Treyton Thesing at 120 pounds. D-E's Gavin Gust then grabbed a narrow 3-2 decision over Carter Jonsgaard at 126, and teammate Taylor DeFrang triumphed over Gable Speltz with a 7-3 decision in their 132-pound match.
Teigen Miller kept the momentum for D-E when he grabbed a 7-3 decision over Kolton Riser at 138, but Dominic Jenkins got LARP back into the win column when he scored a fall at 4:43 of his 145-pound contest with Spencer Honsey. D-E's Blake Lehnertz responded with a fall at 1:19 of his 152-pound match vs. LARP's Tristyn Hegland, and teammate Marcus Otomo took a 16-1 victory over Jackson Koverman at 160 pounds.
The Screamin' Eagles' Jacob Meyer responded with an 11-4 decision over Tyler Shea in their 170-pound match, and Noah Herber kept things going when he scored a fall at 1:05 of his 182-pound match with D-E's Carson Mitchell.
The teams split the last two contested matches; Carter Weideman notched a fall at 1:07 of his 220-pound bout with Spencer Welsh, and Jackson Duellman answered with his own fall at 2:43 of the heavyweight matchup with LARP's Alex Perez.
The LARP wrestlers will participate in the first round of the Section 1A team tournament Thursday, Feb. 14, at Goodhue High School. The #7-ranked Screamin' Eagles will face off against #10 Wabasha-Kellogg at 6 p.m. The winner of that contest will wrestle #2-ranked Goodhue immediately following.

Metal braces.
Metal braces.
Traditional metal braces are the most common type of braces and are more comfortable today than ever before. Made of high-grade stainless steel, metal braces straighten your teeth using metal brackets and archwires. With metal braces, you have the option of adding colored elastics (rubber bands) for a more unique and colorful smile.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces are made of clear materials and are therefore less visible on your teeth than metal braces. For this reason, ceramic braces are used mainly on older teenagers and adult patients who have cosmetic concerns. While they are visually less prominent, they do require more attention to oral hygiene as ceramic braces are larger and are more brittle than their metal counterparts. For these reasons, ceramic braces tend to be used more on upper front teeth than on lower teeth.
Lingual Braces
These are completely invisible braces since they are fixed behind the teeth. We are one of the first clinics in Mumbai to offer invisible braces at a reasonable cost. We offer both high end INCOGNITO custom made braces as well as low cost custom made Indian invisible braces for the cost conscious patients.
Incognito™ Hidden Braces is one of the latest advancements in orthodontic options. Hidden behind your teeth, these braces are custom-made to fit only you. Smile confidently your entire way through treatment…no one will know you have braces (unless you tell them, of course).
With over 100,000 cases treated worldwide, chances are you've seen someone wearing them, and you didn't even know it!
Clear Aligners
Clear Aligners are a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners to straighten your teeth. And, no one can tell you are wearing aligner because it's invisible! Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment, plus brushing and flossing are less of a hassle. The aligners are comfortable and have no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment.
Protecting your smile while playing sports is essential when you have braces.Mouthguards help protect your teeth and gums from injury. If you participate in basketball, boxing, hockey, football, gymnastics, lacrosse, martial arts, racquetball, rugby, track and field, skateboarding, skiing and snowboarding, skydiving, soccer, surfing, volleyball, water polo, weightlifting or wrestling, it is recommended by the American Association of Orthodontists that you wear a mouthguard.

A recent robbery in a gated home in Bukit Bandaraya, Kuala Lumpur, reminded me of the time when gated communities became fashionable in our country.
The concern then was whether gated and guarded homes were really safe.
I was then a member of a team of researchers undertaking a study on gated communities led by Dr Azimuddin Bahari of the Lands and Mines Department. He had since been conferred a Datukship and has moved on to the Natural Resources and Environment Ministry.
In this recent criminal incident reported by the media, a family of eight became victims of a home invasion in the early hours of Wednesday morning on Aug 23.
The police investigating the robbery were baffled as to how the robbers could enter the gated residential area without being detected.
The seven robbers (armed with parang) were believed to be Indonesians. Police believed they had entered the house through a bathroom window on the ground floor.
Gated communities are usually provided with several protective measures — such as a high perimeter fence or wall, entry and exit points under constant security guard, 24-hour patrol services and a central monitoring system covered by closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras.
Electronic surveillance of the exterior of residential units (as well as the features of a "smart home") may or may not be available, depending on the type, selling price and standard of these gated homes.
Datuk Dr Goh Ban Lee, an expert on urban governance, is of the opinion that gated communities are manifestations of the failure of the local authorities "to make our cities safe, conducive for work and bringing up families".
He said that we could not prevent robberies by merely building gated and guarded communities. The residents cannot stay in their secured houses all the time. The young have to go to school, whilst working adults have to go to work or to the market place. A large part of their lives has to be spent outside the walls and gates.
In 1995, a 53-year-old businessman (Datuk Soo Lai Sing) purchased a bungalow in a guarded and gated community in Sungai Buloh, relying on the developer's promise of excellent security facilities for its residents.
He moved into his new home in October 1999. On the morning of March 10, 2000, his house was burgled. He lost half a million ringgit when armed robbers escaped with cash, a shotgun, four Rolex watches, jewellery and other personal items.
In July 2000, he filed a suit against the developer. In May 2004, the Kuala Lumpur High Court awarded him damages amounting to RM487,000. According to evidence adduced in court, the robbers had gained access to the housing estate by cutting through the electronic perimeter fencing, which was supposedly equipped with an alarm system and CCTV cameras.
In February 2007, a gated community in Senai, Johor, became the target of a home invasion. The crime occurred at 3am when four robbers wearing masks broke into a German engineer's home.
They woke up the man and his wife at knife-point and tied them up with wires. The robbers then ransacked the house.
They fled after getting their hands on some cash, jewellery, a digital camera and laptop totalling RM28,000. The victims freed themselves after the robbers left and then alerted the police.
Gated communities have always been regarded as "safe havens". New research in the United States, however, challenges this opinion. On the contrary, research findings suggest that although incidents of "opportunistic burglaries" may be low or minimal, the risk of other crimes may increase.
Researchers Lynn Addington (from the American University, Washington), and Callie Marie Rennison (from the University of Colorado, Denver) concluded that whilst gated communities do in fact "lower the odds of experiencing a residential burglary", they also imposed limitations of access for emergency services such as firefighters, ambulances, and police.
Acknowledging that some criminal activities "may be pushed or displaced" to other areas (non-gated communities), the two researchers expressed concern for risk of other crimes, such as "intimate partner violence or violent assault" in such communities because the victim is "locked in" with the offender.
Home security provider Chris Knott (owner of Naples Security Solutions, Florida) said a gated community "is just one layer of protection".
A gate and perimeter fencing wall only stop petty criminals.
If professional criminals intend to mount a home invasion, these measures alone will not deter them. Home owners must take extra measures to protect themselves.
A report published in The Economist ("Safe Cities Index 2015") stated that whilst gated communities did promise a high level of security, they could not guarantee their residents were fully protected from crime.
A perimeter fencing and a round the clock surveillance can give the residents a sense of security, but public spaces in these enclosed neighbourhoods are often deserted and vulnerable to lawlessness.
Another research on the issue of crime in gated communities suggests that the residents may perceive perimeter security as sufficient for crime prevention, thereby neglecting to implement security measures on their own property or observe basic safety principles.
They are lulled into a false sense of security and become less vigilant and alert to the threats of intruders.
If you live in a gated community, do not take your safety for granted.
