Battlefield 3 – Fault Line Series Episode III: Get That Wire Cut
Posted by Luke in Battlefield 3, Media, PS3 on March 30th, 2011
Here is episode 3 in the ongoing Battlefield 3: Fault Line Series saga. This shows you crawling through a vent, hand to hand combat, defusing a bomb, and then joining up with your fellow soldiers to kick some insurgent arse!
Insomniac "Not making NGP games" and Resistance Will Support Move + 3D
Posted by Eddie in QuickNews, Resistance 3 on March 30th, 2011
In a double dose of Insomniac news, Insomniac has announced that they currently have no interest in developing for the NGP and that their focus lies strictly with the PS3 and 360. This really isn't shocking news as they do not currently develop on handhelds. Even Resistance Retribution was developed by Sony Bend. The NGP Resistance game will be developed by Nihilistic Software. A downer, but not a shocker.
In other news, Resistance 3 will support Move and 3D in the wake of positive feedback that Killzone 3 has received. Again, not a shocker, but good news nonetheless for motion gaming and 3D fans.

Got tail feathers built, waiting on more wood.
Pics on the way.
Oh, come on Mr. wing. Don't tease us like that. We want more! We want pictures!
Standing by ...
Not a true scratch build, as I have a set of plans here.
They seem basic, not much detail or instructions at all.
My previous building experience is kits starting from 1990, mostly CG, GP and SIG and TF kits, around 60 of them and then of course dozens of ARF's from small electrics to 50cc.
Using previous builds as a bit of a guide I will tackle this seemingly simple stick, sheet and ribs build.
Using a small 9 inch Ryobi bandsaw and soon a scroll saw, I am cutting all parts as I need them.
Some wood was sourced local and some of the longerons at 48 inch are coming from Balsa USA, with a hefty shipping fee for me.
So far the tail is mostly done and some ribs have been cut. The main spar is 1x 1/4 balsa. I will need to cut the ribs to allow the spar tp slip into them, that might be a task, or I could make 2 spars of 1/4 squred and shear web them.
I asume I will get into some grey areas and get stuck, but will try to plot along. Hopefully some builders can help out when needed.
I do not have a target date, but flying it late summer maybe a reality, maybe not.
Power will likely be 4 stroke Nitro, either single, twin or radial if $$ suddenly appears in my pocket.
Maybe 30cc gas, but not liking the sound for this plane, maybe a 4 stroke Saito gasser.
Looks like a cool project. The great thing about scratch building is that you can change things like the structure of the wing. I would do the 2 spars with the webbing. I have never built one with the spar thru the middle but it seems like it would be a pain. Looking foward to your build. Good luck.

running into some grey areas regarding wing tips, many drawings and kits contradict design.
Do the tips taper up from the bottom only or does the taper start top and bottom with the wing tip bows in the middle of ribs???
I think its best if try to center the taper, I dont want to create some sort of weird washout at the tips.
It is a flat airfoil, making this part a bit more difficult. Plans are very vague and do not give reduced tip rib pics at all.[]
Plans suggest a tilted Aileron LE? what sort of hinge system would support that, or should I build it upright and bevl it.
To answer my own question, these full size images show a clear taper top and bottom on the aileron TE toward wing tip and also a tilted aileron TE.
I'll build per full size then.
I guess I can do a top hinged aileron using hinge points. I asume down deflection is limited by amount of angle I put into the aileron LE?
wing near completion. Tips are not an easy no brainer per this set of plans.
There is an unusual taper with wing tips fromTE to LE at the outer ribs.
If it was me, I would punch lightening holes between the ribs on the tail surfaces. With that short nose, you're going to want as light as you can get.
"I asume down deflection is limited by amount of angle I put into the aileron TE?"
Yes. and you would really like differential ailerons, where down is less than up. Down will act like flaps/drag and too much will create adverse yaw.
Did lightning holes on the ribs, not going to bother on tail as the sheet is only 1/16 balsa. I can also add them when fully framed and CG can be established.
Will run a servo per each wing half to get proper easy to set up differential.
Will have more pics this week.
After hours of studying pics and drawings on the full size, I was not happy with my wing tips.
I put the bow horizontal to the LE and let it meet a slightly raised aileron tip. This resulted in a double taper in the spars and just looked off.
Good thing all joints were only tacked, and breaking loose joints to reset was not too much issue.
Now I kept all ribs flush and level at the top surface, tilted wing tip bow up and let it meet a slightly raised aileron tip. This looks better and should hopefully not create any funny lift or drag tendencies.
Got notice that a pile of wood arrived, this means this build will see more action..
If using top hinged ailerons then just dial 'up' travel only into your radio for ailerons and forget the bevel.
Yes, no bevel, used the tilted aileron LE and installing top hinges.
some pics
slowly getting there. the plans are lacking and lots of online research is needed to get things as correct as possible.
the front upright is wrong, on most models its a dowel to duplicate the steel tubing. Its visible through the windshield. I hacked off the upper and glued in a dowel.
To further slow things and make things more complicated, I decided to add an operating door, on both sides [X(]
More wing work
Landing gear is next. Bought a wire bender. Hopefully that will go smooth.
the K&S wire bender is a simple but great tool. No way I could have done smooth bends without it.
My plans only show a side view of gear, leaving too much guesswork and cursing tonite..
Anyway, I got it set up and about right, comparing to the Lil Butch full scale.
Havent really Silver soldered in the past, so that was a new thing but worked OK, fluxed, wrapped in copper, and heated with small propane torch just enough to let the solder penetrate.
Its fairly square, may need to bend it here and there or reheat and adjust slightly. I left 3.5 inch axle length, hope fully that is enough tp fit tires and collars.
I only had enough wire to get it right onc e, and had to unbend a couple of areas, which makes for unsquareness and extra tweaking.
Using a cheap soft wire to get the shape and then copying it would be ideal in this situation.
Added functioning door, not on plans. Will add a second one on passenger side when I switch sides, learning all the blunders on left side first
passenger door added
some of the front cabin braces are made of steel wire, and also serve as hooks for wing attachment. I am trying to copy this from the plans but am undcided if I will use that set up.
The front wire cage, wing hold down set up is for donkeys, that will never work, impossible to solder all that to fit, unles you want your house/shop to burn down., and spend 40 hours messing around..
I did try and it was close and sort of worked, but its severly flawed in many ways.
will just make 1/4-20 rear bolts and dowel the front or 1/4 -20 nylon the whole thing.
Kinda thinking the designer never really build this at all, cause much of it is messed up and dont work.
Oh well, I'll get it done one day.
the overhead window was too wide built per plans, I will make 2 more sub ribs and make a scalish opening over the fuse.
Then will make the final wing hold down and shearwebs and final structual adjustments where needed.
Then its linkages and horns and servos
Have to make a cowl and fit engine, likely a 120 to 180 4 stroke.
"I only had enough wire to get it right onc e, and had to unbend a couple of areas,"
I would suggest keeping a close eye on those. Over time, may develop cracks.
will do, bends were minor, and used bender, not hammer and vice, which nicks the metal.
Made more ribs for correct size overhead window and making front hold down today.

For many football fans, the name Richie Petitbon is familiar. He's well known for his days coaching as an assistant under Joe Gibbs with the Washington Redskins and was the head coach of the Redkins for a season.
RELATED: Bama moves from 3rd to 1st in national recruiting rankings after Petitbon commitment
Well, on Friday afternoon, his grandson–Richie Petitbon III–released one of the most thoughtful commitments in some time. He posted it on Facebook for all to see, and the Washington D.C. area native gave that commitment to Nick Saban and Alabama. He plays his high school football at Gonzaga.
His page reads–"I would like to take this opportunity to thank the many Coaches who I have met, and who have reached out to me during this past year of recruiting. It is with great pride and excitement that I announce that I have chosen the University of Alabama as my school for the next four years. I would like to thank all my Coaches at Gonzaga and the entire student body. Alabama has been a special place to me since my first visit last summer. The campus, student body, and the wonderful southern hospitality has been great. Thanks to Coach Saban, Coach Alabama Lance Thompson, and Coach Mario M. Cristobal. Roll Tide!!!!
RELATED: Saban's biggest concern this spring
The younger Petitbon is a top 100 overall national prospect out of Gonzaga HS in Washington D.C. He is rated No. 4 offensive guard in the nation and a solid four-star prospect. LSU, Maryland and Penn State were also seriously in the mix, and SEC schools like Tennessee and Kentucky also offered.

I thought I would start a separate thread about this disturbing news (originally posted in the 2011 Four Continents-Taipei thread): Please provide updates here, if possible. I hope we will hear good news soon.
she is home now safe and sound. conflct details was stated in different news report, still under investigation.
Thank you! Thank goodness. Could a moderator please remove the "may be missing in China?" part of my thread title now that she is not missing any more? (ditto, if possible, for the purple sad face icon I used in creating the thread)
Updates: http://news.sina.com.tw/article/20110618/4489064.html http://www.chinareviewnews.com/doc/...d=0&kindid=0&docid=101736992&mdate=0618143439 Sounds like she was mugged and transported to a deserted area and then abandoned. She walked back to the highway and found help.
Thank goodness! That could have ended so differently. I hope the ice is a place she can feel safe while she is recovering psychologically from the assault.
http://www.goalchina.net/html/201106/18/20110618084521.htm From Guan's blog. --- June 15 2011, the day was one of the darkest unforgettable experiences in my life. i still remain deep in the shock. Noon on June 15, 2011, i finish my errand at the bank, and are walking the street, one middle-aged woman asked me directions. when i gave directions to her, i felt that she nudge me in the ribs with a sharp object. i heard a terrifying woman's voice to me by this woman. she said, "Be quiet. ride on a car. i'll stab you if you shout." as soon as a bus moved when i was ridden a bus as i was attached a blindfold. i've attempted to run a way but i couldn't. i was threaten by a driver's man and as i was beaten by her. i was taken all money and my things by force. i've got the feeling the bus was only running and it has been to far. at last, i was thrown from the car when the car stopped. the car gone away. i was left alone in a mountains. i finally found a public load after that i was desperate for finding a load. i didn't know how long was i only walking through this load. Eventually, it can find an army post and i ran up to there for help. two servicemans made me used a phone to mother, i was saved at last. --- According to her, it's over 3,000yuan for total amount of the damage. and she was beaten by them again and again. she gradually become a good condition currently. Thank goodness she's safe.
That's horrific. I'm so glad she's ok! I hope there are good support services for her to recover psychologically.
Hopefully there were surveillance cameras inside or outside of the bank who may have captured images of the criminals who abducted this poor young lady and that they will be able to identify and capture them.
How horrible for her. I didn't realize that this kind of violent crime existed in China. Then again, human beings are the same every where when you get down to it. Some percentage will always be sociopathic asshats.
I feel so sorry for her. Where did that happen? In Beijing or her hometown of Shenyang? I was reading through the article (thank God this one is in short characters, the first articles were in traditional characters), but didn't see a city mentioned (or maybe I just overlooked it)
According to this story, this happened in Shenyang: http://sports.163.com/11/0620/09/76VVGF9700051CAQ.html In fact, this editorial is questioning the details of Guan's story. Without knowing the facts firsthand it's hard to tell how much to credit this article....

Mike Green is scheduled this afternoon to undergo sports hernia surgery, a fairly common procedure in the hockey world.
Among those who have undergone the procedure at some point in their career (thanks to stats guru Neil Greenberg for the data) are Brooks Orpik, Michael Del Zotto, Danny Briere, Kris Versteeg and Ed Jovanovski, while Islanders netminder Rick DiPietro is scheduled to have the surgery this week.
Capitals assistant coach Dean Evason underwent the surgery during the 1998-99 season, the final year of his playing career, back when he was a member of Landshut EV in Germany.

Inspired to come up with a platform for a kind of character she felt was absent on the screen, Issa Rae launched YouTube series "The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl" in February of 2011. With the help of collaborators, Rae writes, directs, produces and stars in the story of J, the self-described "awkward and black" protagonist working at a call center for a weight-loss pill company named Gutbusters.
The web series became a viral hit, generating both internet and media attention and allowing Rae to fund additional episodes via a Kickstarter campaign. So the news is both welcome and not entirely unexpected that Rae has sold a half-hour comedy entitled "I Hate L.A. Dudes" to ABC — and that she's working with "Grey's Anatomy" creator Shonda Rhimes, who has been a major force in getting more characters of color onto network television via her medical drama and its spin-of "Private Practice" as well as her newest series "Scandal."
Deadline reports that "I Hate LA Dudes" is one of two projects Rimes' Shondaland production company has sold to ABC, the other being "The Mix," a comedic drama written by John Hoffman and set behind the scenes at a morning talk show hosted by five women.
According to the site, "I Hate L.A. Dudes" is about a would-be journalist who moves to Los Angeles and ends up the sole female working at a male-driven web talk show. While learning how to navigate this work environment, she also has to figure out the L.A. dating scene. When "Girls" was generating some heated discussion because of its primarily white cast, "The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl" was often raised as a counterexample of a series that ventured into some similar thematic territory with a more diverse cast and viewpoint. It'll be interesting to see what comes of this deal, and whether the audiences who felt "Girls" came close to their own experience while still excluding them will finally be given something to latch on to.

NHL doesn't need Raffi Torres types
A year ago at this time, we were all debating the impact of a key suspension in the Ducks' first-round playoff series against Nashville.
Bobby Ryan was given a two-game sentence for stomping on the skate of Jonathon Blum. Ryan missed Game 3 and Game 4 -- the Ducks and Predators split those contests -- of a series his team eventually would lose in six.
So far this postseason, however, the debates have been multiple and raging. The NHL has handed out, or upheld, bans to nine players for a total of 16 games in the first round. Ryan's suspension was one of only seven during all of last year's postseason.
On Thursday, Chicago coach Joel Quenneville was fined $10,000 for publicly ripping the officials after Game 3 of his team's series against Phoenix. Quenneville and the Blackhawks were upset that no penalty was called on Coyotes madman Raffi Torres, who sent Marian Hossa off on a stretcher .
So, what in the name of Tiger Williams is going on around the league? Is there really that much pent-up anger among the playoff qualifiers? And, if that's the case, how much frustration are the players whose teams didn't advance harboring at the moment?
The real scary thing about all this over-the-top violence is the complete disregard some players have for the long-term health of their peers. Players like Torres, who has been suspended indefinitely, either lack the necessary self-control or, much worse, possess no conscience to begin with.
Playing with fire and passion, playing edgy and physical, that's one thing. But playing with complete disregard to the welfare of the opposition, playing to hurt the other guy, is something else totally.
Hockey can be a beautiful sport, and there is no better example of that beauty than what can result from the pressure of the postseason. It's up to the men playing in these games to end all the ugliness.

- Not to be confused with the pilot episode.
"Episode 1", also known as "Traces to Nowhere", is the second episode of Twin Peaks' first season, which aired on ABC on April 12, 1990. It was written by series creators Mark Frost and David Lynch, and directed by Duwayne Dunham.
The day after Laura Palmer's murder, Agent Dale Cooper continues his investigation, questioning several suspects connected to the victim, including Laura's secret boyfriend James Hurley and her best friend Donna Hayward.

Production staffEdit
"Episode 1" was written by the series creators David Lynch and Mark Frost. The pair had co-written "Pilot", and would also write "Episode 2" together. Frost would pen a further eight scripts for the series after that,[1] while Lynch would write just one episode—the second season opening installment, "Episode 8".[2] The episode was the first in the series to be directed by Duwayne Dunham, who would return to helm two further installments in the series' second season.[3] The episode features the first full appearance of Frank Silva as BOB, though the character is not yet identified at this point. Silva was the art director for the series, and had accidentally been caught on camera during a shot. Lynch was pleased with the result and decided to include Silva in the cast from then on.[4]
Dunham had first met Lynch when he worked as the film editor for Lynch's 1986 film Blue Velvet.[5] Dunham then edited "Pilot", and was about to look for another editing job elsewhere when he asked Lynch if the director had another film planned; a week later Lynch decided to film Wild at Heart and asked Dunham to edit that as well.[6] However, Dunham had committed to another project and felt uncomfortable leaving one editing job for another; Lynch then offered him a directing position on Twin Peaks in the interim to justify cancelling his other project.[7] Dunham finished principal photography on "Episode 1" the same day that Lynch finished filming "Wild at Heart".[8]
The introduction of a sexual rapport between the characters of Audrey Horne and Dale Cooper was a suggestion of Dunham's, who felt it would benefit both characters. Dunham felt that the central mystery in the series — the murder of schoolgirl Laura Palmer — was simply a "MacGuffin" to compel what he saw as the real focus, the interaction of the large ensemble cast. As such, he took care to introduce meaningful interactions between characters wherever possible.[9] Dunham also spent time with each of the cast to help them develop their characters, having studied the scripts involved and basing his take on the characters on his experience with "Pilot".[10]
Dunham retained the frequent use of static cameras seen in "Pilot", something he saw as a hallmark of Lynch's directing style;[11] describing the result as "like framed pictures".[12] He also continued the use of a "warm" reddish tint to the footage, using soft coral filters and carefully selected props and costumes to obtain this coloring.[13] This tint was considered important enough that Lynch sent a representative to the network to ensure they understood it was deliberate and not a mistake, for fear that they might correct the saturation to be more "realistic" before broadcasting it.[14]
Broadcast and receptionEdit
"Episode 1" was first broadcast on American Broadcasting Company (ABC) on April 12, 1990. Upon its initial airing, it was seen by 14.9 million households, or 27 percent of the available audience.[15] It placed second in its timeslot after Cheers.[16] This marked a decline from "Pilot", which attracted 33 percent of the available audience.[17] The following episode would be viewed by 21 percent of the available audience, representing a further drop in numbers.[18]
Writing for The A.V. Club, Keith Phipps awarded the episode an "A−" rating. He felt that the scene showing Leo Johnson domestically abusing his wife was "among the show's most disturbing moments", comparing it to a scene from the 1990 film The Grifters. Phipps also felt the sound design in the episode was impressive, commenting positively on the blurred distinction between diegetic and non-diegetic music.[19] Writing for Allrovi, Andrea LeVasseur rated the episode four stars out of five.[20] Television Without Pity's Daniel J. Blau felt that the episode showed series composer Angelo Badalamenti to have limited range, repeating several similar musical cues throughout. He also considered Eric Da Re's performance as Leo Johnson to be unconvincing, finding it difficult to believe that the character was as feared and menacing as was implied. However, Blau described the introduction of BOB as still seeming powerful and frightening even several years after first being seen, considering it a potent and disturbing scene.[21]

The origin of the fish in the percolator comes from a past experience of David Lynch. During breakfast at the studio of his friend Bushnell Keeler he discovered that he and David Keeler drank coffee made with a bar of soap in the percolator.[22]

Phillip Cosby says move positive step
A Kansas family values activist said he is pleased with the military's decision to remove pornographic magazines from Army and Air Force stores, but said the rationale fails to make the link between sexual content and abuse.
The Army and Air Force Exchange Service announced Tuesday that it was removing 891 magazines from more than 1,500 stores worldwide because of declining sales.
Phillip Cosby of the American Family Association of Kansas and Missouri said Thursday that removing nearly 50 pornographic magazine titles from the shelves is a positive step toward curbing sexual violence in the military.
However, Cosby, who spent 22 years in the Army, said the military is being less than forthright in saying the magazines are being removed for financial reasons and not to address sexual violence issues.

As story unfolds, media struggles with facts
NEW YORK The scope and senselessness of the Newtown, Conn., school shooting challenged journalists' ability to do much more than lend, or impose, their presence on the scene.
Pressed with the awful urgency of the story, television, along with other media, fell prey to reporting "facts" that were often in conflict or wrong.
Here was the normal gestation of an unfolding story. But with wall-to-wall cable coverage and second-by-second Twitter postings, the process of updating and correcting it was visible to every onlooker.
The number of dead was initially reported as anywhere from the high teens to nearly 30. The final count was established Friday afternoon: 20 children and six adults, as well as gunman Adam Lanza's mother and the shooter himself.
For hours on Friday, the shooter was identified as Ryan Lanza, with his age alternatively reported as 24 or 20. The confusion seemed explainable when a person who had spoken with Ryan Lanza said that 20-year-old Adam Lanza could have been carrying identification belonging to his 24-year-old sibling.
Initial reports differed as to whether Lanza's mother, Nancy, was shot at the school, where she was said to be a teacher, or at the home she shared with Adam Lanza. By Friday afternoon, it was determined that she had been shot at their home.
Then doubts arose about whether Nancy Lanza had any link to Sandy Hook Elementary. By early Saturday, an official said investigators had been unable to establish any connection with the school.
Lanza's weapons were listed as two pistols (a Glock and a Sig Sauer) as well as a .223-caliber Bushmaster rifle, but whether that rifle was used in the school or left in the trunk of Lanza's car was unclear.
There were numerous versions of what Lanza was wearing, including camouflage attire and black paramilitary garb.

talk about a comeback
Mark Sanford Wins SC Election
It seems neither a sex scandal nor an endorsement from Hustler can ruin your political chances. Mark Sanford has won South Carolina's special election, beating Elizabeth Colbert Busch for a seat in the House of Representatives, according to an Associated Press call. The Republican led with 54 percent. Even the GOP fundraisers had given up on Sanford after his ex-wife's trespassing allegations against him surfaced, leaving Colbert Busch with a 5-to-1 outside spending advantage. Now that's what we call a comeback.

Hello all. Im recording some guitar riffs on my computer and need some advice. Im trying to emulate the guitar tone of Bloodbaths "Resurrection Through Carnage". The producer himself posted on a forum about how he achieved this tone:
"I used a Boss HM-2 into a Digitech GNX2 preamp. I used the Marshall-amp and Speaker emulation. Later on I used the Free Filter plug-in to "rip" the guitartone EQ from Left Hand Path (using the Intro from "Drowned") and applied that to my own "try".
My setup is a Gibson Explorer > Behringer HM-300 pedal (Boss HM-2 clone) > Behringer FCA202 DAC/ADC > Logic Express 9. I am able to record but it sounds nothing like the bloodbath tone. I couldn't find a VST called "free filter plugin", google only came up with a bunch of filters that were free of cost. What is this filter that can "rip" the guitar tone? I have access to a Digitech RP150 which is cheaper than a GNX2 but might sound similar.
Can someone link me to this "Free Filter" plugin? Google only pulled up a bunch of results for filters that are free of cost. Any idea what he's talking about?

/// Sprint Preparing a Bid for T-Mobile US
Sprint is working toward a possible bid for rival T-Mobile US people familiar with the matter said, setting the stage for a giant telecom merger that if permitted by regulators would leave the U.S. wireless market dominated by three big companies. Sprint is studying regulatory concerns and could launch a bid in the first half of next year, the people said. A deal could be worth more than $20 billion, depending on the size of any stake in T-Mobile that Sprint tries to buy. Read the rest of this post on the original site »

Home > Payments Systems & Currency > SEPA
People travelling from one euro-area country to another can easily pay for goods and services in cash using the single currency. However, making cross-border payments within the euro area by other means (for example, by credit transfer or by direct debit) can be more difficult, due to technical, legal and market barriers that remain from the period prior to the introduction of the euro.
The Single Euro Payments Area initiative (SEPA) aims to overcome these barriers, thereby creating a single market for euro-denominated retail payments. SEPA will allow payment systems users to make cashless, euro-denominated payments to payees located anywhere in the EU and EEA, using a single payment account and a single set of payment instruments.
SEPA will have at least some impact on every citizen, merchant, public administration and corporate entity (regardless of size) currently holding a payment account with a bank. Holders of such accounts in all countries participating in the SEPA initiative (at the time of writing, the EU member states, together with Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and Monaco), regardless of their own location, will be able to make and receive euro-denominated payments, whether within or across national borders, under the same basic terms and conditions.
SEPA is not only about improving the processing efficiency of euro-denominated cross-border payments – it is a major project that will also have an impact on participating national payments markets. SEPA will introduce new business rules in relation to payments and implement common standards for issuing and executing electronic payment instructions in all participating countries. All electronic payments, both within and across national borders, will be affected and all credit transfers, direct debits and card payments will eventually migrate to SEPA standards.
A SEPA Migration Guide has been written to help businesses, public authorities and households prepare for SEPA. This Guide will be updated throughout the migration period as additional information becomes available.
The ECB has prepared a short (about 5 minutes) video introducing SEPA and explaining the background to this initiative.
SEPA is being implemented in thousands of banks in 32 countries – the 27 EU member states, together with Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Switzerland and Monaco.
The European Payments Council (EPC) – an alliance of European banking/payments industry representative bodies – was established in 2002 to deliver SEPA. The EPC's constitution gives it decision-making status on behalf of its payments industry members.
The EPC draws its representation from the three categories of banks in Europe – commercial banks, savings banks and co-operative banks. In Ireland, only those banks active in the retail payment system are represented. These are AIB, Bank of Ireland, Permanent TSB, Ulster Bank, National Irish Bank and BNP Paribas. The EPC has a number of working and support groups, the work of which is guided by a Co-ordination Committee; in addition, the EPC Plenary meets four times each year.
The implementation of SEPA within Ireland is overseen by the National Payments Plan (NPP) Steering Committee, which was established in 2012 to modernise the way payments are made in Ireland. A NPP SEPA Sub-group has been formed, consisting of representatives of consumers, businesses, Government and banks.
This subgroup has already met several times, and will meet monthly until the SEPA migration process has been concluded. Its role is to track the implementation of SEPA in the public and private sectors, and to co-ordinate communications and other initiatives required to ensure the successful implementation of SEPA.
The Central Bank of Ireland, like all other users of payment services, will have to be fully SEPA compliant and will therefore have to make changes to its own electronic payment systems in this regard. To this end, it will be necessary for all suppliers of goods and services to the Central Bank of Ireland (whether new or existing) to provide the information set out in our SEPA Vendor Form. All suppliers should complete this form and submit it to email@example.com by 1 November 2013.
Failure to complete and return the SEPA Vendor Form by that date will result in payments to the suppliers concerned being automatically 'blocked' on our systems, which could lead to significant delays in receipt of payments after 1 November 2013.
The Central Bank of Ireland can only make payments to the account details received from suppliers on this form and all payments will be made to the account specified. Any future changes will need to be submitted in writing, on company headed paper, and addressed to email@example.com.

FlashPlayer Plugin
compile "org.grails.plugins:flash-player:1.4"
Execute the following from your application directory:grails install-plugin flash-player
Flash Player Plugin
Execute the following from your application directory:grails install-plugin flash-player
Assuming you will test the flash-player plugin using the sample Flash video file called video.flv in the movies directory created during installation, then getting the video to play is a three step process...Firstly, in the <head> section of your GSP, include the swfobject JavaScript library with the following tag:<g:javascript src="swfobject.js"/>
Tag Attributes
Confusingly, there are four independent sets of attributes that can be used with the <g:flashPlayer.../> tag: 1) arguments to the swfobject.js library to tell it what object to create in memory and how; 2) attributes that the swfobject.js library should apply to the object it created in the preceding point; 3) flashvars that player.swf file needs to configure itself and 4) parameters to be passed to the Adobe browser plugin. To add to the misery, various of these attributes can conflict, can differ from player to player, and can change over a period of time. On the bright side, the arguments to the swfobject.js library are fairly fixed and are relatively straightforward, so we will deal with those first (note that in the following table, 'myApp' refers to the name of your Grails application):Attribute | Description |
id | The id of the 'alternative content' HTML element where the player is to go. There is no default for this and so a value must be supplied that matches the id of an alternative content HTML element. |
width | The width of the player in pixels. The default is 425. Note that if you intend to use the expressInstall system (described below), the minimum width should be 310. |
height | The height of the player in pixels. The default is 355. Note that if you intend to use the expressInstall system (described below), the minimum height should be 137. |
player | The name and location of the player.swf file. Defaults to /myApp/swf/player.swf. Note that this parameter means that you are not limited to using the JW FLV Media Player but can substitute a player of your own choosing. |
version | The minimum version of the Adobe Flash Player browser plugin needed to play the media. Defaults to "10". You can specify just the major version (as in "10"), the major and minor version (as in "10.0") or the major and minor versions plus the release (as in "10.0.12"). |
expressInstall | If the the user's Adobe Flash Player browser plugin does not meet the minimum version specified above, you can give the user the opportunity to upgrade it and then continue with playing the chosen media. The default for the expressInstall attribute is /myApp/swf/expressInstall.swf. If you do not wish to give the user the opportunity to upgrade their browser plugin, you can set this to an empty string, as in expressInstall="". |


text: Time Warner's Plan to Make AT&T Suck Less (In NY, Anyway)matt buchanan3/08/10 11:17amFiled to: iPhoneAt&tTime Warner3G4GWirelessInternetNet NeutralitybackhaulCellphonesSmartphonesVerizon83EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink I never thought I'd forgive Time Warner for abominable service before I switched to FiOS—but I just might, if their plan to lease their pipes to AT&T and Verizon makes using an iPhone in NY actually tolerable. UPDATED. Advertisement AT&T's iPhone problems are two-fold. There's the wireless aspect, which is having enough towers with enough spectrum for everybody—that's probably what you're familiar with. (The problem in really crowded areas is that there's only so much wireless coverage you can provide before you run into issues like cross talk. We'll see how it goes down at SXSW this year, since AT&T's almost certainly loaded Austin after last year's implosion. In the meantime, the FCC is pushing to get more spectrum into carriers' hands to ease congestion.)The other side is backhaul—the actual pipes carrying data. I've never been able to get AT&T to tell me how much of their backhaul is copper vs. fiber, which would tell us a lot about their backhaul capacity. (Fiber can carry a lot more data to and from towers than copper, obvs.) Supposedly, they're increasing fiber deployments alongside with their U-Verse rollouts, but I'm not sure how (or if) that's been affected by the slowdowns in U-Verse deployment. (Presumably not much, if at all.) Either way, their needs for backhaul have been exploding. Update: Some comments from AT&T about backhaul: Advertisement • We added more than 100,000 new circuits for backhaul last year — four times our 2008 total; we've doubled the number of fiber-served cell sites we have. • We anticipate that the majority of our mobile data traffic will be carried over the expanded fiber-based backhaul by the end of this year that we're putting in place to go with the HSPA software that's at all of our 3G cellsites already and will also be the foundation for LTE. • We'll continue to be aggressive with fiber-to-the-cell-site deployments — 3X what we did in 2009.What Time Warner Cable's offering is more backhaul. That is, according to BusinessWeek, they're pitching Verizon and AT&T on leasing their pipes in New York City, which is one of AT&T's two admitted problem areas, besides SF. A short-term solution, it's cheaper for carriers than installing more backhaul themselves, but would give them additional bandwidth for data-hungry iPhones.Which, incidentally, makes me real curious about Time Warner's broadband cap trials (which haven't hit NYC, yet, because of how competitive the market is, thanks to FiOS) and how they sell capacity to customers. They'd be selling unused capacity to the carriers, so their incentive would be to sell you as much bandwidth as possible for the highest price, while getting you to use as little of it as possible. Unlike Comcast, Time Warner hasn't publicly announced they'll throttle your whole connection during periods of congestion (a net neutral way to manage traffic), but if they're making a side business out of selling whatever's not eaten by assholes like you watching tons of internet video, it's easy to see where the squeeze could come. You will pay for your data. That's the future. But hey, at least your iPhone might work now! [BusinessWeek]Reply83 repliesLeave a reply

2007 Rivals.com Preseason All-SEC First Team
QB: Andre' Woodson Kentucky, Sr. Boasting a strong and accurate arm, Woodson enters the season with a school record streak of 162 consecutive passes without an interception. Last season, he led the SEC with 270.4 passing yards per game and 31 touchdown passes. He threw for 3,515 yards while completing 63 percent of his attempts. RB: Darren McFadden Arkansas, Jr. Last year's Heisman Trophy runner-up and Doak Walker Award recipient as the nation's top running back, McFadden has posted consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons. He rushed for 1,647 last season despite starting the year with a severely injured toe. He has exceeded 100 yards in a game 12 times in his career. RB: Felix Jones Arkansas, Jr. One of the most overused quotes in sports is that a backup player "could start for any other team." In Jones' case, it's the truth. Despite playing behind McFadden, Jones was second in the SEC in '06 with 1,168 rushing yards and he averaged 7.6 yards per carry. WR: Earl Bennett Vanderbilt, Jr. As a freshman he caught 79 passes for 876 yards and improved to 82 catches for 1,146 yards as a sophomore. There is no reason not to expect that upward trend to continue. WR: Early Doucet LSU, Sr. A game-winning touchdown grab in the final seconds against Tennessee was one of his 59 catches a year ago. He amassed that many catches despite playing alongside two receivers that were first-round NFL draft choices. This year he will be the Tigers' top target. TE: Jacob Tamme Kentucky, Sr. In 2006, Tamme led all SEC tight ends with 32 catches for 386 yards and two touchdowns. OT: Michael Oher Ole Miss, Jr. Considered by many the SEC's best run blocker, Oher helped pave the way for BenJarvus Green-Ellis to rush for 1,000 yards. OT: Chris Williams Vanderbilt, Sr. A starter in 21 consecutive games, Williams only allowed one quarterback sack all of last season. That sack came against Michigan in the first game of the year. G: Will Arnold LSU, Sr. If not for health issues, he'd likely be named All-American. Knee and ankle injuries forced him to miss more than half of last season, yet Arnold still notched three 'pancake' blocks and 20 knockdowns. G: Robert Felton Arkansas, Sr. Equally adept and run and pass blocking, he posted 57 knockdown blocks and graded out at 84 percent last season. He recorded at least five knockdown blocks in six games, and six times he graded 100 percent for pass blocking. C: Jonathan Luigs Arkansas, Jr. A finalist for last year's Rimington Award, which is presented to the nation's top center, Luigs was the anchor for an offensive line that paved the way for two 1,000-yard rushers. DEFENSE DE: Derrick Harvey Florida, Jr. Although not starting every game in '06, Harvey still collected 11 sacks. He plays best in big games, which was obvious when he had three sacks against Ohio State in the national championship game. DE: Quentin Groves Auburn, Sr. Posted 9 1/2 sacks in 2006 and needs just four this season to break Auburn's all-time career record of 26. DT: Glenn Dorsey LSU, Sr. A returning All-American, Dorsey posted 64 tackles in 2006, including 8 1/2 for losses. He was the most dominant force for a defensive unit which ranked third in the nation. DT: Josh Thompson Auburn, Sr. A very productive interior lineman, the stocky Thompson registered 44 tackles a year ago. He made 4 1/2 tackles for losses, including one sack LB: Jerod Mayo Tennessee, Jr. Managed 83 tackles a year ago despite being slowed with a knee injury. He recorded three sacks in a season-opening victory over California. LB: Jasper Brinkley South Carolina, Sr. A junior college transfer who played his first Division I-A season last year, he posted the second most tackles in the SEC with 207. He also had 85 solo tackles, which is the most of any returning player in the SEC. LB: Jonathan Goff Vanderbilt, Sr. One of the nation's premier middle linebackers, Goff is excellent against the run and pass. Last season he posted double-digit tackle totals in three games and never had fewer than five. He also had an interception and forced two fumbles. CB: Simeon Castille Alabama, Sr. A returning All-SEC selection. Last season Castille grabbed six of his 10 career interceptions. He also posted 71 tackles. CB: Chevis Jackson LSU, Sr. Entering his third season as a starter, Jackson is coming off a 2006 campaign in which he posted 46 tackles and two interceptions. He also led he team with 14 passes defended. S: Jonathan Hefney Tennessee, Sr. He's started every game but one of his collegiate career. Last season he posted 96 tackles, second most on the team. S: Derek Pegues Mississippi State, Jr. A converted cornerback, Pegues earned second team all-conference recognition in 2006 after posting four interceptions – two of which were returned for touchdowns – and nine pass deflections. SPECIAL TEAMS K: Brandon Coutu Georgia, Sr. Though a torn hamstring caused him to miss most of the 2006 season, Coutu converted 10 of 11 field-goal attempts - including two from beyond 50 yards. He also was perfect on 17 extra point attempts. P: Britton Colquitt Tennessee, Jr. As a sophomore Colquitt ranked seventh nationally with a 44.9-yard average per punt. He had 11 punts cover at least 50 yards and 18 kicks were downed inside the 20-yard line. RET: Mikey Henderson Georiga, Sr. Ranked sixth nationally in 2006 with a 14.7-yard average on 25 punt returns. He returned punts for touchdowns against Tennessee and Western Kentucky. UTIL: Percy Harvin Florida, So. Harvin could be a selection at running back or receiver if he specialized. But he's so effective, he can be used anywhere. As a freshman he gained 427 yards rushing, 428 yards receiving and averaged 11.4 yards for the 75 times he touched the ball. He's going to touch it more frequently this year.

Property Of Flagship
Drawing on cafe-owner roots, Property Of bag designers Peter Teo and Richard Chamberlain recently launched the brand's first flagship, a "store in a cafe," on Amsterdam's fashion-forward Herenstraat Street.
In addition to peddling the Singapore brand's well-crafted line of shoulder bags and accessories, the outpost will house an array of like-minded magazines and books while serving up Stumptown coffee—as the increasingly popular roaster continues to expand beyond its Portland, OR hometown.
Highlighted here last year for their collaboration with Pendleton Woolen Mills, the label traditionally uses waxed cotton, coated denim or heavy nylon for their range of urban-inspired bags.
Property Of sees the Amsterdam location as the beginning of an expansion program that will lead to shops in Singapore, New York and Tokyo over the following months.

A Fine Farewell | Beauty and Eco-Friendly Shrouds
Thursday, February 19th, 2009If you are looking for ways to make the funeral of a loved one special and unique, you may want to consider having a creative and beautiful shroud made. A burial shroud is a cloth in which the deceased is buried. Marian Spadone created A Fine Farewell because she found that no one was making shrouds with any sort of care and thought about making it special and unique as the final wrap of a loved one. As an artist, she decided to create shrouds that were personal and thoughtful She designs them with an eye toward embellishment and beauty as well as with practicality. She has worked with several funeral directors and funeral homes to create a design that is easy, beautiful and function.

Buddhism arose around 500 B.C.E. as a practical response to the trouble and suffering that characterize the human condition. Uniquely among traditions concerned with those issues, Buddhism has never offered a final description of ultimate reality; it also has not proposed a universal fixed solution to the persistent and concrete problems of solely human trouble and suffering. Instead, Buddhism has developed a general yet systematic strategy for generating truly sustainable resolutions of the trouble and suffering that afflict all sentient beings in their specific contexts.
Significant common ground with the traditions of science and technology, particularly as they have developed in the West, is suggested by Buddhism's commitments to developing insight into patterns of causal relationship; challenging both common sense and other, more sophisticated forms of presupposition and authority; construing knowledge as a cumulative and consensual process; and devising concrete interventions to redirect patterns of...

Foxconn under investigation over bribery allegations
Foxconn, best known for assembling Apple's iPhone and iPad products, is under investigation in China over allegations that it looked for bribes from suppliers.
Foxconn, best known for assembling Apple's iPhone and iPad products, is under investigation in China over allegations that it looked for bribes from suppliers.
The Taiwanese Next Magazine claims that a Foxconn manager was arrested over suspicion that he solicited bribes from some of the numerous firms supplying parts to the company.
It is not clear what the manager sought and what was offered to suppliers in return, but presumably one of those approached for a bribe reported the incident to the police.
Foxconn said it was cooperating with authorities and carrying out an internal investigation, suggesting this issue was not known to those higher up in the company. It said will implement new measures to prevent similar occurences in the future.
The incident is the latest in a series of headaches for the company, otherwise known as Hon Hai Precision Industry. A spate of employee suicides in recent years drew widespread scrutiny and criticism of the company's working conditions, while Foxconn has also hit the headlines for hiring underage staff.
Problems at Foxconn reflect badly on a number of well-known technology companies that pay it to assemble their products at dirt cheap prices, including Apple, Samsung, Microsoft, Sony, Panasonic, Amazon, Dell, and HP. Some of these have launched investigations of their own and attempted to secure improvements at the company to avoid the endless negative PR that seems to accompany it.

Keep on Walking
I get the impression that walking is a solitary pursuit. I base this on experience. Most mornings, I take my dog, Remy (a rambunctious border collie that possesses a persistent energy I wish I had), to a park a few miles from my home. During these early excursions, I see many people who have made walking a part of their daily routine. And most of them walk alone.
I don't blame them. The peacefulness if the park creates an atmosphere suitable for both exercise and personal reflection. In fact, in the upcoming weeks I expect the number of solo walkers to increase. The crisp fall air combined with the rustic splendor of the changing leaves should entice more people to lace up their walking shoes.
Unfortunately, the autumnal air won't last forever. By the time the bitter chill of winter arrives, most of the colorful leaves will have disappeared - and, with them, most of the walkers, I suspect.
The few walkers who come to the park in groups will have companions to keep them going despite the cold weather. But the solo walkers won't have that type of support. I have a feeling many of them will put their sneakers in the closet. And therein lies the opportunity.
In August, the New England Journal of Medicine reported that three hours of brisk walking per week (or 90 minutes of more vigorous activity) could reduce the risk of heart disease in women. The media picked up on the story, and the benefits of walking were publicly extolled again. Now the study is old news, and winter is coming. The walkers in my neighborhood - and possibly in yours - will soon be heading indoors. Where else can they go?
How about your club?
This is the perfect time to use the walking study in your marketing materials. Remind walkers of the benefits of their chosen activity. Why should they retreat for the winter when you have treadmills and other equipment they can use? You can even put a class together for them that goes outside on days when the temperatures are reasonable.
Once you sign the walkers up, get ready to retain before spring approaches. Ultimately, you may lose a few to the warmer weather, but, in the meantime, you'll have months to drive home the importance of getting the kind of complete workout that only a club can provide. After all, a walk in the park may calm the mind and work the heart, but it won't strengthen the upper body. And stronger muscles can come in handy during a park walk - especially if you are trying to control a hyperactive border collie that likes to chase squirrel. Believe me, I know.
Best regards,
Jerry Janda

#9469 closed feature (fixed)
Remove semi-functional .selector calculation from .pushStack()

Priority: | low | Milestone: | 1.9 |
Component: | core | Version: | 1.6.1 |
Keywords: | Cc: | ||
Blocked by: | Blocking: |
Per discussion with ben_alman, and related to #7389 which consensus says won't happen.
The .selector property can't be reliable since there are simple ways to construct a set that can't be represented by a CSS selector. We've documented those shortcomings in the API docs for .live() and .selector but it's still a frequent source of questions and errors.
It would simplify the code for .pushStack() and its callers if it didn't try to maintain the .selector property at all, which is still in keeping with our documented use of .live() immediately after a $() set creation.
In addition we should deprecate non-core use of .selector and remove the documentation from the API site eventually.
All to be done over several versions, with sufficient advance warning in the docs before breaking anything.

Eventually we should do this, for sure, but only when we have some alternative to switch to. Right now we're using .selector inside jQuery for live so we definitely want to maintain it.
comment:4 Changed 5 years ago by anonymous
A quick question:
Since .selector seems to have been removed from the docs, and .live doesn't support chaining, would it be possible to remove the .selector constructing code in .pushStack now?
comment:5 Changed 5 years ago by dmethvin
- Resolution invalid deleted
- Status changed from closed to reopened
Hmmm, it might. We still need to set .selector since .live() needs it, but the only other chaining I've seen in the wild is $(sel).find(sel).live(). Reopening to take a look around.

Assorted Cheese Plate
- A cheese course following a leisurely meal is always enjoyable especially at a holiday gathering. Here are a few tips. First, it's best to serve cheese at room temperature. Keep the cheese wrapped until ready to serve to prevent the surfaces from drying out. Allow one- to two-ounce chunks or slivers per person. Accompany the cheese with crusty bread, seasonal fruits such as sliced apples, pears, or berries, and nuts. Cheese plates often offer a blue cheese (Maytag blue, Danish blue, or the French Bleu de Bresse, or Stilton), and a hard cheese (Provolone, Pecorino, or Parmigiano-Reggiano).
- You can experiment with the fruits and nuts you like to serve with a particular cheese, but here are some ideas. Toasted walnuts go well with blue cheese, as does fresh blueberries (especially with Bleu de Bresse). Serve strawberries with a creamy Brie. Fresh and juicy seasonal fruits, like apples and pears, can be served with most cheeses.
- If locally made cheeses are available in your area, by all means, use them. In New Orleans, we are able to get local cheeses made by Chicory Farm in nearby Mount Hermon. We like to call them fromage de pays, or the special cheese of the region. A plate of their cheese (see Mail-Order Sources) is often served at Emeril's and our customers love it.

DIY - Starter Motor 6-Cylinder Engine (M52 Motor)
4 Attachment(s)
This is a FAQ but so far no good write-up.
So The following is from BMW T.I.S. Procedure Book for Removal of Starter Motor 6-Cylinder Engine (M52 Motor). 1. Copy your Radio FM Channels. Then disconnect the Battery. 2. Follow the pictures to remove Starter Motor. Manual Transmission: E39-M52-MT-Starter01.JPG -----> E39-M52-MT-Starter03.JPG Automatic Transmission: E39-M52-AT-Starter01.JPG + E39-M52-MT-Starter03.JPG (last step is the same for Auto and Manual). Good Luck! |
OK I just did this on mine , I have a 98 528i, Auto,
lets say, I was Not Going to remove the intake, NO WAY, NO HOW, Ive been doing this way to long,, If you have the starter bolts that screw into the starter without nuts on them, then you have no reason to remove the INTAKE. So lets start. I knew it was my starter Bendix as it just kept trying to catch and then let go and re-engage and grind at the flywheel. So I ordered a starter for 39.99 with free shipping from ebay, it was used and from a Z3, with a 90 warranty, to start with I jacked the car up on ramps first then used jack stands so I had room underneath it. removed the ramps and set to go, I will wait till the last thing to remove the battery grd wire, so I dont have to reprogram the radio. so lets go this is a 2-3 hour job unless you have the problems I had. Mine was 3 days. but I can another in 2 hours flat now. first take out the air box, the whole airbox, it has 1/ 10MM head bolt on it, thats it, the rest are 2 hose clamps, I removed mine from the wheelwell and the intake itself in one unit, look at the rubber slide ons so you lube them all first with Wd before trying to slide the box back onto the stays it fits on, Now take off the top cover for the intake again, this has 2 10mm headed bolts holding it on. this is so we can get the top starter bolt and see what we are doing. the socket you will need for the starter bolts is a #12 Star Socket or an E-Tork. Ok ,now we go and look at the starter from the fender well area, see the clips down the side of the engine for the fuel lines? unclip them from up top or from underneath. your choice. slide them out of the way. now go down under the car with your 3/8 drive ratchet and a 4 inch extension with the 12 MM E-Tork on it, take and get the socket and extension on the star head. then lift your ratchet and slide it on the end, undo this bolt all the way and remove and clean up real good so it goes into to the new starter with your fingers all the way. this bolt is where my problems started and ended. it was fused into the Aluminum tail of the starter and I couldnt get it out with a ratchet with a 27 inch handle on it, so I grab the air ratchet , and get it on there and the air ratchet blows up, ROFLOL> ok im stranded and have no way to get to the store for a new air ratchet, 2 days later I get a ride and come home to tackle this again. I put the air ratchet up on the bolt and tried to tighten it ,it moved a 32nd inch . lol ok remove now another 32nd inch. ok back in and this time when we go to remove we will not stop the ratchet. Bingo out came the bolt and so did 6 full threads from the starter tail/ glad we are replacing the starter LOL ok we have to use an Ice pick to clean the threads on the starter bolts from the aluminum thats embedded into it after this we oil them real well and make sure they go into the new starter with fingers, ok now for the top starter bolt, u need a 1/4 ratchet with the star on it from the top you can get right on the bolt and slide a jack handle over the 1/4 drive ratchet so you can have a little leverage to break loose the top bolt break it loose and take it out , dont worry the start has a pin in it to hold it in place, after you get this bolt out your are ready to open the trunk and disconnect the grd on the battery and lay it off to the side so it doesnt accidentally touch the post again till you want it to, Remeber to clean this bolt up like you did the other so it goes back in with fingers. ok from up top, look sideways and you will see the 13MM nut for the hot lead on the starter remove this first and then the other large lead behind it comes off now you can slide the starter around and remove the 10MM nut from the one wire and the 8 MM from the other wire, and slide the starter right out the top with no problems at all. replace like this Slide the starter down in and connect the 2 small wires, now slide the starter into the bell housing hole and it slides on that pin that holds it steady while you insert the top bolt and start it a little now go under and put the bottom bolt in and tighten it up, slide the fuel lines back into the clips and get out ,your are done under the car. go up and tighten the top bolt and now put the hot leads back on and tighten them. go and connect the battery and make sure nothing is touching in any wrong places, it pretty much sits back just as you took it out. Now take and slide the airbox back in with WD lubing all the rubber ends and boots for it to slide on easier. put the one 10MM bolt back in the air box and reinstall the intake cover, Now lets try the starter, PURRRRRRRRRR , Jack her up, and remove the stands,and have A HAPPY BMER experience . I hope you enjoy and find this How2 by Bmerbill helpful in your maintenance of your wonderful BMW Im very lucky to have found this rare Bmer, it has all the 740 features on it sliding window covers, First aide kit, rear access thru seat,individual ac controls and all and it came from the factory with the 17inch wheels on it, we grabbed it for 4200.00 4 years ago with 129,000 on it, and now have 225,000 miles on it, yes we have a Love affair with our Bmers 4 sure. many Thx for this forum and the help it is to many |

my starter is different
6 Attachment(s)
Hi All,
I was able to do this job from the top only without removing the intake manifold. Since I had issues buying the starter I show some pictures about BMW's re-manufactured starter. It is also interesting that I own a 1997/10 E39 528i manual and my car doesn't look like the car on the images from ce90 who is the first commenter here. When I bought the starter in a BMW dealership I was complaining about the model since my starter has threads and the re-manufactured one has a hole without threads. But I was told that BMW redesigned the starter and this will fit and also works with the old bolts. So I bought 2 x 10mm nuts with washers to be able to fix it. You can see on the pictures that the two starter look very different, and when I removed the starter I took a photo of the flywheel to see if the difference will cause any issues. Generally I often take a picture of something I can not see because my view is blocked. It is easier to diagnose it on the photo. Getting the idea from bmerbill I removed the airbox and it turned out that I can complete the job from the top. I had some extra unnecessary work so getting the experience I recommend to do it by the following order: Remove airbox; disconnect battery; disconnect 12V cable from starter; disconnect starter and move it out for easier access; disconnect other cables from starter; and do it again with the new starter in the opposite order. |
starter stuck
Hi, everyone
I have a 97 528i. I was going to replace the starter today and I was able to remove the two bolts following the instruction in this forum. But the starter does not come off after the two bolts removed. I did remove the right bolts so it is not I removed the wrong bolts. Any ideas what is going on? I appreciate any help. Thanks |
dowel pin also holds on starter
Hey buddy,
on my 2000 528, along with the two bolts holding the starter on there is also a dowel pin about 3/8 of an inch long that comes off the tranny housing between the two bolts. the bolts are easy to take out but the dowel pin can be a real bitch. i was able to reach in from the top and wedge a flat head screwdriver in there to slowly work the two pieces apart. good luck. |
