Special ID

Special Identity
 •  , , ,  •   • Dir.

Reviewed by   |  Jun 1, 2015

After a surge of period and fantasy styled films, Donnie Yen returns to modern day cop action territory in the somewhat schlocky but no less entertaining ‘Special ID’. With various trailers promising a Yen action blowout with various MMA influenced confrontations, ‘Special ID’ certainly delivers on that front and while it can’t quite maintain the magic and momentum in the non-action scenes this is still a welcome return for the man Yen to the modern set action film. He plays tough undercover cop Chan Chi-Lung who has been in deep cover in Cheung Mo-Hung’s (Chou) triad gang for some time now. When Lung’s negotiations with three other local triad gangs goes spectacularly wrong, Hung becomes suspicious of undercover agents within his ranks and vows to wipe out any traitors. Fearing for his own life, Lung requests to taken off undercover duty and reinstated for normal cop duty. However, his captain has one last mission for him before this can happen: to infiltrate the gang of one of Hung’s best lieutenants and bring him down. Said lieutenant is Sunny (On), a vicious criminal out to make a name for himself and who has ties to Lung from their past. Fearing his identity may be blown, Lung fights to stay ahead and bring down the criminal gang and keep himself alive.

While it may not reach the same acclaimed heights of Yen’s previous modern actioners ‘SPL’ and (the somewhat underrated) ‘Flashpoint’, ‘Special ID’ is still a well made action thriller that is nowhere near as bad as some of the online opinion may have you believe. The narrative, refreshingly, is relatively un-convoluted and while it rarely surprises it shuttles along at a brisk pace as Lung rockets from one confrontation to the next. There is a rather clumsy subplot involving Yen and his mother which while it serves to add some touching scenes in amongst all the violence and double crossing does leave with viewer with the odd feeling of why is this bad-ass character, capable of kicking the crap of several bad guys at once, calling his mum for advice! However, the lovely Jing Tian (‘Police Story 2013’) fares much better as the local cop Lung reports too, and while her and Yen’s scenes perhaps feature too much mugging for a bit of comedy relief, they do share good chemistry and it would have been nice to see their relationship developed a bit further.

But then this would have got in the way of all the knuckle dusting action, of which Jing Tian even gets in on. And, as is to be expected from Yen and his team, the action and fights in ‘Special ID’ are fantastic. Yes, Yen and Chou may not go toe-to-toe this time around (but I think it would be pretty much impossible to top their epic duel from ‘Flashpoint’) but Yen gets to mix it up with the likes of Ken Lo (‘Drunken Master 2’) and Andy On (replacing the controversial exit of Vincent Zhao). The fights are well paced throughout the runtime each building to the epic showdown between On and Yen and are packed with MMA style grappling and take downs giving them a much more brutal and grounded feel. On is also on fine villain form, adding some much needed tension whenever he is on screen as the slightly-on-the-edge-of-sanity Sunny. Stunt maestro Bruce Law is also on hand to co-ordinate an exhilarating car chase and if anything ‘Special ID’ should be applauded for is its reliance on real stunts, excellent fight choreography and a distinct lack of CGI.

While it may not quite be the ultra hard hitting cop action we were all expecting (it does lack tension in-between the non fight bits), suffered from a troubled production and dips into cheesiness all too often, ‘Special ID’ is still a lot better than you’ve probably heard and a welcome return to the kind of 90s style crazy cops-and-criminals action fun.

InstaMonth for August 2015

August went by quickly and I am so happy about that. September not only means the start of autumn, but also the end of one of my worst summers in a long time. I've been waiting for the September-December time of the year for what feels like ages. I'm ready for pumpkins, boots, changing leaves, and holidays.

This post is to share some of my recent shots on Instagram from last month. But I also want to share a pet peeve of mine that keeps happening. Those accounts that have a lot of followers by using the "follow + wait for follow back = unfollow formula". Not cool, you guys. It's one thing to unfollow someone when they don't follow you back, I like that mutual thing myself. But to get that follow and five minutes later unfollow?

Everyone knows social media is #srsbsns. I mean, come on...but I digress. ;) Let's see how my August played out on my Instagram!

Everything Can Be More Beautiful For Being Broken!

What is broken can be far more beautiful.

That includes all of us!

kintsukuoriThis is the gorgeous philosophy in Japan from a famed fable of Kintsukuroi.  You can read the fable in its entirety HERE but the moral of the story: when something is broken it can be more beautiful. Now, Kintsukuroi pottery-  repaired with golden “glue”- is the art form that demonstrates both the fable and this amazing concept.

With all of the “perfection” pressure in our world, the idea that flaws and struggles can actually enhance rather than damn us is something to take to heart.  If you can really dive into this philosophy, suddenly the hard times become the veins of precious metal that build value, character and unique strengths.

If you ever feel like you have been shattered, remember that this can be the chance to emerge more radiant than ever.

And if you are overcoming your own perfectionism or a real trial in life, you might want to get (or make one, a kit is right HERE) yourself a piece of kintsukuroi pottery and display it proudly.

Being real is far more beautiful that being perfect. xoxo Dana

“They aggrandize the damage by filling the cracks with gold, because they believe that when something has suffered damage and has a history it becomes more beautiful.”

Dana February 22, 2014 at 3:40 pm

That’s truly beautiful. I’ve seen this type of pottery before and never thought to consider why it was like that. I love that my mind is a little more open from reading this. That’s the best part. Thank you!

Academy Students, Alumni among WKU Biology Students Contributing Research to National DNA Database

Students in the WKU Biology Department’s Genome Discovery and Exploration class have contributed genomic research to the national DNA sequence database.

Students in the class isolate viruses from soil, purify the viral DNA, then sequence and annotate the viral genome. This unique hands-on, inquiry-based program is sponsored by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Science Education Alliance and is designed to engage new undergraduates in the process of doing scientific research.

Through their efforts in this yearlong research experience, the participating students ultimately contribute new information to the scientific community.

Three newly discovered genomes characterized and annotated by the Genome Discovery and Exploration students were recently released by Genbank, the national DNA sequence database. The type of viruses that were isolated are called bacteriophages; viruses that specifically infect bacterial cells. The students named the newly discovered phages BackyardiganTiroTheta9 andBarrelRoll.

“The characterization of new viral genomes provides insights into the diversity and evolution of bacteriophages which are the most numerous biological entities on the planet,” said Dr. Rodney King, associate professor of biology.

The WKU students who contributed to the annotation of the viral genomes are as follows (* denotes Gatton Academy student):

  • Bacteriophage Backyardigan  (Released August 2011) — Courtney Howard* of Radcliff; Prasanna Parthasarathy of India; Ejike Anyanwu of Washington, D.C.; Kaitlyn Cole of Lawrenceburg; Karlee Driver of Lafayette, Tenn.; Elizabeth Farnsworth* of Burlington; Benjamin Howard* of Morehead; Brittney Howard* of Radcliff; Jordan Olberding of Oceanside, Calif.; Mackenzie Perkins of Hopkinsville; Heidi Sayre of Lawrenceburg; Tyler Scaff* of LaGrange; Sarah Schrader* of Bowling Green; and Cynthia Tope* of Burlington.
  • Bacteriophage TiroTheta9 (Released August 2011) — Sarah Schrader* of Bowling Green and Prasanna Parthasarathy of India.
  • Bacteriophage BarrelRoll (Released September 2011) — Benjamin Rice* of Somerset; Akhila Bethi of India; Lee Calvert of Albemarle, N.C.; Charles Coomer of Louisville; Andrea Eastes* of Mayfield; Erin Eaton of Crestwood; John Faughn of Bowling Green; Alex Gutierrez* of Mount Washington; Anthony Gutierrez* of Mount Washington; Samantha Hawtrey* of Union; George Jones of Central City; Mackenzie Jones of Campbellsville; Zimple Kurlawala of India; Taylor Leet* of Louisville; Lori Lovell* of Louisville; Kaysi Phillips of Nashville, Tenn.; Lori Shoup of Frankfort; Aaron Stolze* of Somerset; Erin Walch* of Alexandria; Eric Westerman of Sebree; Makka Wheeler* of Guthrie; Spencer Wright of Lexington; and Prasanna Parthasarathy of India.

Lansdowne Wants U.K. Fund To Be Less British

Nov 8 2011 | 10:58am ET

Lansdowne Partners has decided it's too much trouble to invest half of its U.K. Equity Fund in the U.K.

The London-based hedge fund told investors in the vehicle that, in honor of its 10th anniversary, it would do away with a provision that requires half of the fund's assets to be invested in the U.K.

"The U.K.'s position as a magnet for globally relevant companies has clearly diminished in recent years leading to an excessive bias towards commodity-based sectors," fund managers Peter Davies and Stuart Roden explained. "Meanwhile, we should stress that our bias towards emerging market growth remains strongly embedded in our thinking notwithstanding our desire to invest in it through developed market companies."

Davies and Roden called the 50% U.K. requirement "overly restrictive." The two proposed a 90% gross exposure to developed markets, instead, Financial News reports.

Despite the proposed changes, Lansdowne does not appear to plan a less-British name for the fund.

Valiant's Hansen, Seattle Team Up For Basketball In City

Feb 10 2012 | 3:41am ET

Hedge fund founder Christopher Hansen is working with his hometown to bring professional basketball back to Seattle.

The Valiant Capital Management chief, who has been working since at least year on plans to build a new sports arena in Seattle, has been working with city officials for the past eight months on his plan. The extent of the city's cooperation with Hansen, who lives in San Francisco, became clear after the Seattle Times won the release of documents from the city last week.

Hansen is promising to build the arena with little or no help from the taxpayers. The issue of public funding is a touchy one in Seattle; the city lost its last National Basketball Association team, the SuperSonics, in 2008 after the city and state refused to help pay for either a new arena or for the refurbishment of the Sonics' home, KeyArena.

"I really appreciate it and look forward to making this happen in Seattle," Hansen wrote in an e-mail in June to two city officials. "I genuinely mean that and am confident that with a little effort and creativity we can find a solution that meets our needs and the city's/state's desire to get a team back to Seattle without a large public outlay."

"It's a pretty substantial commitment that would have to be made by the investors," Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn told the Associated Press. But Hansen has already made something of a commitment, having in December bought at least one large property near Safeco Field, the home of baseball's Seattle Mariners, and having reached out to nearby property owners.

It isn't clear where the team would come from, with the former Sonics now safely ensconced in Oklahoma City as the Thunder. But the documents show that Seattle is following the situation in Sacramento, Calif., which is facing a March 1 deadline to produce a plan for a new arena for the city's Kings.

Hansen's planned arena could also house a National Hockey League team; NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has said that Seattle would be an attractive new city for the league.

On This Day

Slobodan Milosevic, Slobodan Milosevic trial, Slobodan Milosevic hague, Milosevic trial
Paul Vreeker/POOL/AP
Slobodan Milosevic smiles as he appears before the UN war crimes tribunal, Feb. 13, 2002.

On This Day: The Trial of Slobodan Milosevic Begins

February 12, 2011 06:00 AM
by findingDulcinea Staff
On Feb. 12, 2002, the war crimes trial of Serb leader Slobodan Milosevic began at The Hague. The defendant died before a sentence was passed.

Milosevic Put On Trial for War Crimes

Slobodan Milosevic became president of Serbia in 1989 under the nationalist banner of a Greater Serbia. He stirred up xenophobic hatred of non-Serb ethnicities and waged war against Bosniacs and Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina after they voted to secede.

In 1999, he ordered Serbian forces to crush Kosovar insurgents, prompting a bombing campaign against Serbia by NATO. Milosevic responded by launching a genocidal campaign against the Kosovar Albanians.

Milosevic was defeated in the Yugoslavia presidential election in 2000. A year later, he was arrested by the Yugoslav government on corruption charges; he was later transferred to the custody of the International Criminal Tribunal in Yugoslavia, which had charged him with war crimes and crimes against humanity in 1999.

Milosevic was put on trial at The Hague in the Netherlands, facing 66 counts for crimes against humanity, genocide and war crimes committed in Bosnia, Croatia and Kosovo. He showed contempt for the court’s authority and refused to hire a lawyer.

Human rights activists had high hopes for the trial. The New York Times, calling the trial the “most important war crimes trial in Europe since Nuremberg,” wrote “His trial is a triumph for the civilized world, which has created a court capable of condemning the most heinous crimes with appropriate gravity and fairness.”

Prosecutors spent four years presenting their case, calling 293 witnesses. Milosevic defended himself on the witness stand and while examining witnesses. “Milosevic called dozens of witnesses to back up his arguments and has comported himself more respectfully than during the prosecution phase, when he was bullying witnesses,” wrote CNN.

The trial was frequently delayed by Milosevic’s health problems. On Feb. 24, 2006, Milosevic asked to obtain medical treatment in Russia, but his request was denied. He would die in his jail cell March 11, 2006, concluding the trial without a verdict.

Critics complained that the trial was too slow, that Milosevic should not have been able to defend himself and that all of his crimes should not have been combined into one trial. Human Rights Watch defended the trial, arguing that Milosevic’s death “should not diminish the trial’s other accomplishments.” It claims that information from the trial, such as video, “engendered a great deal of national discussion in Serbia, forcing people to confront the fact of atrocities they had previously denied.”

Background: Milosevic and the Balkan Wars

The Ottoman Empire invaded the Balkans at the end of the 14th century, and its rule lasted about 500 years. However, as the Ottoman Empire began to collapse, nationalism took over in the Balkans and infighting plagued the region.

The Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes was created after World War I and named Yugoslavia in 1929. The Serbs quickly dominated the government. After World War II, Yugoslavia was once again declared a state, ruled by the Communist regime of Marshall Tito, who ruled until his death in 1980. From early on, the federation was dominated by Serbia.

With the breakup of the USSR, the early 1990s saw Yugoslavia's constituent republics secede from the federation. Croatia declared its independence in 1991, and the Serbs responded with force in the first of the Yugoslav wars.

Bosnia’s population was more diverse than Croatia’s. Forty percent of Bosnians were Muslims, 30 percent were Serbs and 18 percent Croats. When Bosnia-Herzegovina declared its independence in 1992, each ethnic group vied for national power.

Milosevic and other Serbian nationalists supported the Bosnian Serbs in their efforts to create a Greater Serbia in Bosnia, so they instigated a campaign of ethnic cleansing, which led to the expulsion, imprisonment, murder and rape of Bosnian Muslims.

In 1998, fighting also broke out in Serbian-controlled Kosovo. The large ethnic Albanian population sought to break away from Serbian influence. NATO responded by launching air strikes.

The Kosovo Albanians fled, and there were “accounts of killings, atrocities and forced expulsions at the hands of Serb forces,” according to the BBC. More than 90 percent of the Kosovar-Albanian population may have been displaced during the war.

Figs and tub refinishing

Thanks for all the compliments on the flip house!  Like I said, I would still do it if rehabber financing was still available.  There is one other part of the flip I wanted to mention that I had done that was pretty neat.  But first up, breakfast!  I had some of my figs from Trader Joes!  My first time eating fresh figs.  I had them on some oat bran.

I like the figs.  I was sort of expecting them to taste like a fig newton, but they didn’t really.  More fruity and a little juicier.  John didn’t like them and said they were mushy – pffft.

On the flip house, there was one other thing I had someone else do – and that was refinish the tub.

I had ripped everything out of the bathroom except the tub.  There was wallpaper under the tub surround, too.  What the hell?  I pulled platoons of wallpaper out of this house.

See that rotted floor? That had to be fixed with some new wood pieces.  Anyway, the tub was cast iron covered in porcelain and had scratches and gouges in it.  Plus it was an icky kind of beige color.  Doing a Bath Fitter installation was not in my budget and the thought of taking it out was too frightening.  Plus trying to put a new tub in?  No thanks.  So, I decided to have the tub reglazed.  I used a company called the Tub Doctor. I think that is sort of a chain with independent contractors? Anway, the cost was $400 to do the tub.  I was told to get the bathroom all finished except no caulk around the tub.  So, I did the floor tiles, installed new sink and toilet (not hard, surprisingly), painted and put up the new surround.

Here is the difference between the old and new tub.  This tub was clean here. You can see how scuffed the porcelain is.

Amazing!  They can do any color, too, but I chose good old white.

The only thing I had to do after that was to caulk the tub and the surround.  They also do tile (like wall or countertops).  We are going to have our tub refinished with the tile surround as well next year when we redo the bathroom.  Why get rid of a functional tub and have all that hassle?  Again, another thing worth having done by a pro.  So don’t overlook this possibility to have an affordable alternative when doing a bathroom remodel.

    My bathroom is going to be remodeled soon. We have the paint and the new bath vanity. Thankfully the tub doesn’t have to come out but I am nervous that once we start pulling up the old floors we’ll find mold and have to tear EVERYTHING out…

    Lori…..isn’t a new tub only a couple hundred dollars at Lowe’s?I’m trying to remember from when i worked there around $200 sounds right……..Unbelieveable everything you did yourself. Your just amazing!!!Hugs! deb

    1. Lori Post author

      Fiberglass tubs aren’t expensive, but the thought of breaking up and removing a cast iron tub was not something I even wanted to do. It really was more labor and time effective to refinish.

  3. debby

    That is amazing to see. I’ve heard about that, but never seen it done. I guess the cost is comparable to a new tub?

    And I hate to say it, but I kinda agree with John about the figs. I still eat them but I don’t like the texture that much. Vicky has stuffed them with cashew cream. Mmmm. basically like frosting. What’s not to like about that?

  4. Andra

    Amazing job on the tub! We’d very much like to gut and re-do our first floor powder room before we list the house. I want to pull up the tile floor so bad, whoever thought a white tile floor in a high traffic area was a good idea needs a beat down.

    Love fresh figs, I love the luscious texture.

  5. Ali @ Peaches and Football

    Huh – what a good idea. I can’t imagine the hassle of ripping out a tub and putting a new one in there – and the reglazing makes it look brand new. Plus – think about all the landfill waste you saved there!

    I’m assuming that only works for porcelain tubs and not the fiberglass ones that seem more commonly found around where I live?
    Ali @ Peaches and Football´s last blog post ..Crockpot time

    1. Lori Post author

      Exactly – saving a perfectly good tub from the landfill! It is much easier to remove a fiberglass tub, so I don’t know if it would be worth it to resurface one, if it can even be done.

  6. Shelley B

    I’ve never eaten a fig that wasn’t in a Newton…I wondered, when you showed the picture a couple days ago, if you peeled them. I see you don’t – is it akin to an apple skin?
    Shelley B´s last blog post ..Friday Mishmash

    1. Lori Post author

      The skin is more like a very ripe peach. I don’t think it would be possible to peel them. I might make the rest into a fig jam!

  7. Roz@weightingfor50

    Seems to me that fresh figs are either “love ’em or hate ’em” for alot of people. They are REALLY good with a bit of blue or goat cheese….or on pizza. OK..time to go fig shopping! 🙂 I am sooo impressed by that bathroom Lori. I’ll say it again, the folks who bought it are very lucky!!!
    Roz@weightingfor50´s last blog post ..Workout with Neva

  8. Leah

    I’m sorry, but the figs did not look appetizing, though I do like fig newtons. hhmm…maybe I would have to be brave and just try ’em.

    The tub looks great! I didn’t know they could reglaze a tub..learn something new every day. 🙂

    Have a great weekend! (I’m catching up late Friday..)

GST law should ensure benefits of lower prices are passed on to common people

Many have heralded the introduction of the GST as the single most important reform that has been initiated in the arena of indirect tax system in India. The main objective of GST is to simplify the indirect tax structure and unify taxation. That, in turn, is expected to bring about several positive impacts such as increasing the ease of doing business, increasing compliance, raising the GDP growth rate by 1-2 percent, lowering inflation and increasing government tax revenue. The obvious question that arises is whether these claims hold any water and under what circumstances these expectations are likely to be fulfilled with the introduction of the GST.

What exactly does the GST bring to the table?

The Indian indirect tax structure at present comprises an array of taxes - those that are levied by the Centre such as central excise duties, CENVAT (Central Value Added Tax), central sales tax, Countervailing Customs Duty, service tax, etc., and those levied by States like State VAT/sales tax, octroi or entry tax, etc.

Since a number of these taxes do not fall under the purview of Value Added Tax (VAT), a tax levied only on the ‘value added’ at each of stage of a supply chain (and not on the entire value of sales or of production), the indirect tax system continues to be plagued by the problem of “cascading effect of taxes”.

This cascading effect, whereby an item is taxed several times from the production to the final retail sales stage, has the effect of raising the tax component of products and leads to higher tax-induced prices. Further, multiple taxes imposed by different States and the Central Government give enormous scope for tax evasion. The GST would put an end to this system as the complex web of multifarious indirect taxes that exist at present would be replaced by one indirect tax: the GST.

The GST, though a single tax, would comprise two components: a central GST and a State GST. As per the Committee headed by A. Subramanian, the number of rates is likely to be limited to: i) a standard rate to be levied on majority of goods and services, ii) a lower rate on merit goods and essential items, and iii) a higher rate on non-merit goods like luxury goods.

Benefits of GST

Uniform rates of taxation on goods and services (barring the non-GST items such as petroleum, tobacco, alcohol, etc.), would help to simplify and rationalise the tax system and increase compliance. Uniformity of taxation, it is argued, would also remove barriers in the movement of goods across the country arising out of the differing rates at different locations. Further, since the GST is a form of VAT, by “giving input credit for taxes paid on inputs at every stage of the supply chain and taxing only the final consumer, it avoids the ‘cascading’ of taxes”, thereby reducing the tax component of a product.

Taking a closer look at some of its purported macro impacts

All these factors, the arguments go, would have several positive impacts on the economy. While it is possible that the removal of a plethora of taxes does help the big businesses, there is a need to tread carefully in conjecturing several other positive impacts the GST is supposed to have.

The explanatory chain that underlies the argument that the GST would raise economic growth is that savings in cost arising out of either lower tax component (owing to crediting of input taxes) or efficiency gains/economies of scale, would reduce prices of goods, thereby increasing demand for various goods and hence growth. The critical assumption here is that there will be a full or nearly full pass-through of cost reduction (if any) into the prices.

Empirical research, however, shows that while an increase in indirect taxes is generally passed through fully into consumer prices, lower indirect tax rates do not necessarily result in reduced prices. So unless, there is a near full pass-through of lower taxes into consumer prices, the GST by itself might not translate into a higher rate of growth. In fact, experience of some of the countries, which have a similar GST system in place, shows that there is no positive relationship between introduction of a GST system and economic growth.

Likewise the argument that inflation would come down over the years is based on similar assumptions mentioned above. Even the argument that there would be mild inflation that too only in the initial phase, is problematic because nobody yet knows what the rates of taxation would be. If the standard rate is high or the tax rate on essential commodities is significantly higher than existing rates, it could have significant impact on inflation.

Besides, since now services, which did not have to pay State sales tax earlier, would have to pay the standard tax rate calculated with the inclusion of other taxes, these will end up being more expensive. Lastly, there is always the possibility that taxes may be hiked in the future since only experience would make it clear what rate of taxes would ensure “revenue-neutrality” or that the amount of revenue raised remains same as before. If a revenue shortfall is tried to be compensated for by raising GST tax rates or taxes on petro products (which do not fall within the GST at present) the inflationary effects would be large.

To address these problems, the government can perhaps think of introducing a clause in the GST law to ensure that there is a pass-through of the benefits derived from GST on to the common people in the form of lower prices. Further, in case of a revenue shortfall, instead of relying on increasing taxes on petroleum products, the Centre could even think of relaxing its deficit target, as the A. Subramanian Committee suggested.

Malini Chakravarty is with Centre for Budget and Governance Accountability (CBGA). The views expressed are personal.

Go to and enter your make and year, then check under timing components. They sale a few different kits for this job. I would recommend doing the timimg belt, idler pulley, tensioner, water pump at serpentine belt at a minimum. you can check and see if you need to do the cam seals also one of their kits includes all these. I would only do those if they were leaking.

1999 cross country v70 awd crankshaft seal replacement

Your info is confusing. The rear cam seal is not inside the timing belt cover, and the crank seal is at the bottom of the engine, while the cam seal is at the top.

Is there oil at the top, around the cam seal? Or just at the bottom? It's common for the oil pump seal to leak. If you get the oil pump reseal kit, it contains the oil pump seal and gasket, as well as the crankshaft seal. Make sure you seal the oil pump bolts, Volvo has special copper washers for this purpose.

Just try to locate the oil leak before replacing any more parts. Sometimes it can be something simple like the oil cap seal or the oil trap housing.

No power when going up hill could be a plugged catalytic converter or fuel filter. A bad ignition control module will act up when the engine gets hot and not energize the coils so they can provide spark to the spark plugs. There could also be a bad coil. The ticking could be a bad coil or spark plug wire that is shorting and arcing. If you take a spray bottle with some water and lightly mist the coils and spark plug wires with the engine running in the dark (outside at night) you will see the arcing. Autozone will test your ignition control module and coils for free.

Why does my 2006 suzuki escudo idle too high once the engine has warmed up, almost like the automatic choke is jammed on but revs are higher than when choke is on

first off no 2006 has choke, i now you are not here, in uSA.
this engine, no size stated or name.
IS this the G16 engine, post a photo of engine,, and we can tell you, every time.
here are the engines used on all 2nd gen Escudo's

1.6 L G16B I4 (petrol)
2.0 L J20A I4 (petrol)
2.5 L H25A V6 (petrol)
2.0 L RF/RFM I4 (diesel)
2.0 L RHW/RHZ I4 (diesel))

the g16 never races, if there are vacuum leaks.
it stalls. or low RPM
high RPM on this G16 is caused by ISC failures.
we clean them every 60k miles, like the book asks.
this engine has EFI , electronic fuel injection and has 16valve head, and the fuel is metered via a MAF sensor.
the ECU controls hot idle all them time
there is a cold start air valve, called IAC,
this is pure thermal device below the throttle body.
and can stick open ,
or the engine does not reach 180f the ISC will no close
even a newone will not close until 150f is crossed !
also not getting coolant changes, the water line to the IAC valve will clog and make it fail, clean that clog and it now works
also the TV can gunk up

see that throttle body , inside is the TV, the throttle valve
it can do this.

this G16 site covers all failures

gunk 101 clean it, or the TV sticks open

Suzuki grand vitara 2001 V6 2.5 litre. how hard to change valve cover gaskets & front engine oil seal, do I have to take out radiator etc

why not just do it one at a time., why make it hard.?
the front cover off is big job.
my guess is you have oil leaks, that it?
the steps are in the FSM book,
you can read them at or at the official suz page.
posted 100 times.

$4 to look.......

or see all parts here for free.
it should be obvious what needs doing, if you look at what is in the way.

non are easy on the v6
you can see the intake is in the way.
and lots more on front cover....
id do the VC first. see if the leaks stops.
or better.
why not use the UV dye, check and find true place of leak first.
then do all that labor to fix. it.

the front cover.
well you can see all thing must come off front of engine, to get
the cover clear of the crank shaft. its clear that !
and how to do that depends on what stops you doing that.
the RAD sure. id have it out already. (not A/C condensor)

posted many times before. but one more time...
in FSM book.
  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Remove throttle body and intake manifold.
  3. Remove ignition coil covers.
  4. Remove camshaft covers.
  5. Clean sealing surfaces on cylinder heads and covers.
  6. Remove oil, old sealant, and dust from sealing surfaces. After cleaning, apply sealant A to cylinder heads sealing surface area as shown in figure.

so you read the book and get to line 2 and see links to those pages.
and ask who do to that, (TB should be obvious)
and that page on intake states

  1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the Precautions section.
  2. Relieve the fuel system pressure.
  3. Drain the cooling system.
  4. Remove or disconnect the following:
    • Negative battery cable
    • Strut tower bar
    • Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor connector
    • Surge tank cover
    • Air intake assembly
    • Accelerator cable
    • Transmission cable, if equipped
    • Throttle body coolant hoses
    • Fuel injector connectors
    • Throttle Position (TP) sensor connector
    • Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor connector
    • Idle Air Control (IAC) valve connector
    • Intake manifold ground cables
    • Brake booster vacuum hose
    • Evaporative Emissions (EVAP) canister purge valve connector and hoses
    • Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve connector
    • Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve and hose
    • Heater hoses
    • EGR pipe
    • Fuel lines
    • Throttle body and intake collector
    • Intake manifold
  5. .... stop,....... im sure it's info overload time.. RTM?

im sure you dont like this answer , and will drive with leaks.
like me....

why not read the manual first then ask questions. not clear.

Do i need lock tool to change cam belt on a 03 grand vitara

I'd be first confirming whether you have a 1.6 litre Grand Vitara (petrol), or a 2 litre turbo diesel. The 2 litre petrol (straight 4 or V6) or 2.5 litre petrol engines are all chain drive.
If your engine is petrol then no lock tool is required (to hold the camshaft). Of course, there is a specific position that an engine should be rotated too before removing the belt from ANY engine.
If it's diesel, then although I'm unfamilar with that particular engine, the general requirement for diesel engines with high pressure injection pumps is "yes, you require a lock tool" to hold the injection pump pulley. As I think these are a common rail set-up, this requirement may not be necessary. Check with your Suzuki Dealer, or maybe someone else here will know more. A similar question may have already been asked and answered here too.

    Hi, my name is Donna,

    I purchased a 2004 RX330 at the end of January 2009. As soon as it warmed up a bit we noticed a black spot on the front carpet and a very strong mold odor.

    We brought the truck to an expert in our area that deals with flood vehicles etc.... He has had my truck for 10 days and finally found where the water was getting in.

    At the base of the cargo door shock absorbers there is a 1/4" seem separation (near the mounting bracket). The rain water has been flowing in-between the body and soaking the carpeting. I'm already at $2000.00 with this company.

    Please respond to me as we seem to have the identical problem and we need to pursue Lexus in paying for the repairs.

    Mold is a very serious health issue and as the weather warms it will continue to grow.

    I look forward to hearing from you. I am located in a far western suburb of Chicago

    My 2004 Lexus RX330 developed the wet mat and smell problem in February. It rains heavily in Houston and this has been reoccuring. The vehicle has been in the shop for a week and they advised yesterday that it was the tail gate hinges and they would be doing some welding to fix it. I bought it as a certified vehicle so I am hoping this is covered under warranty!

Buick passenger side front and rear carpets soaking wet

The two most common causes are rain water leaking in or the ac drain being clogged up. I would vote for rain water if the entire carpet area is wet.
Could be coming in around the windshield, or one of the door gaskets.

Water leak after rain, rear floorboards soaked? HELP!

a couple things to look at if it has a sunroof the sun roof would have drain hoses that run down in each corner next you need to look at the cowl this is the section in front of the windshield that has a drain on it as well if you find nothing there the next step would be to remove the seats and carpet and sit in the car while running water over it either way you should remove the carpet and make sure it is dry all the way threw or mold will start to grow and you will never get ride of it not good for your heath other key spots to look at is if the windshield was ever replaced it could be a poor seal

2002 suburban has leak in driver side rear floor. Cannot see where water would be coming from?

We had same--water on driver side rear floor (soaked!). Driver side front floor seemed dry until feeling UNDER rug, was slightly damp. We found the location of TWO leaks causing this.

Leak #1 was through the parking brake line/cable seal; Recaulked with silicone. Removed plastic trim on floor between floor and door to reveal metal channel filled with water.

Leak #2 was where the door meets the car, near the hinge. It was the accordian-looking tube housing the wiring for the door. The big, rubber, circular plug connecting it to the main part of the car had come loose and water ran down through that, into the SAME metal channel filled with water from leak #1; will seal with silicone.

Note: We found that the channel filled extensively near the front door, BUT the carpet edge from the floor near the rear seat was dipping into it, wicking it up to the rear floor. Also, upon acceleration, the water in the channel gushed toward the back, thus soaking the rear carpet.

These leaks were found by removing all plastic trim (covering edges of carpet by doors), then one of us pouring water into specific areas of the exterior of the vehicle, and the other one watching closely with a flashlight for any signs of dripping.

Water leaks into right side floor board during a blowing rain?

My 06 was leaking during rain also. It turned out to be the sunroof. There are two drain tubes in the front of the sunroof that run the water down the corners to the ground and two drain tubes that drain water out the back corners. The water would seep around the glass, which is expected, but both of the tubes on the front of mine were plugged, and the water would overflow behind the dash and fill my floorboards. If my H3 was leaning to the left during a storm then the drivers side would be full of water. If leaning right, then the passenger side. I had to open sunroof and blow compressed air into the drain holes to clear them, but be careful, too much air will separate tubes from sunroof and then you will have to remove the inside paneling around sunroof to get to tubes and reconnect. You may only have one side plugged. you can test it by opening sunroof and pour a little water in the small catch pan in the front of the sunroof and see if it drains as expected (to the ground under the firewall on left AND right side). You can see the holes in each corner of catch pan to drain the water. Plug one with your finger, then the other to find the plugged side. Good luck!! Hope this helps!!

Wet floors on passenger side after it rains.

Is it possible the water is actually coming from the A/C evaporator case, whose DRAIN IS CLOGGED ? The water produced by the A/C then leaks out of the case, down under the carpeting, then depending how vehicle is parked, can flow to the rear floors and carpet. Hope this helps

Water leak on fwd and back passenger side after every rain storm

pull your carpet up near the leak area and look for muddy body seams. it is possible one of the factory body seams are leaking- possibly in the cowl(under wipers) area, especially if it leaks when the car is sitting. there will be dirt/mud around the seams that are leaking. also you can check door seals by running the car on HIGH DEFROST with all doors and windows closed. spray around with a 50/50 soapy water solution. obviously bubbles will form around your leak.

2002 Toyota RAV4 passenger side floor Water

Hi, we also have a 2002 Toyota Rav4 and developed a leak in the front driver's side of the car. After much research, we discovered that the drain wells from our sun/moon roof were clogged. If you have one of these, I suggest that you open the sun roof and look carefully. You will notice some tiny little holes in front and in the rear of the sun/moon roof tracks. Over time, these become clogged with dust and debris. You need to find a long, sturdy piece of thin wire and run it down the holes. To test if you have properly unclogged these, take a small amount of water and pour it down the holes. You should see water coming out of the drain wells under the car around the rear of the front tires. Hope this helps.

It sounds like a plugged drain line from the air conditioner. Most cars now run in the a/c mode whenever u turn on the climate control (even when heat is on). The passenger side front is where it would be wet, and the carpet and carpet pad act like a sponge and will soak up the water. Let me know how u make out.

Try putting a little pressure on the back door right of the finder. If the counter worked, then when film is finished and removed with the back door open you can see a metal lever in the slot that the door fits into. It should be straight vertical if not straighten with a needle or pin to vertical.. No parts are avail. for this model.

Do I need to buy film to use this kind of camera?

Vivitar makes many cameras. Some use 35 mm film and some are electronic. I believe yours is an XM 1K type:
Product description Product Information The Vivitar XM1K is an APS point and shoot film camera, designed to capture photographs with dazzling colors and record the memorable moments of your life. You can click brilliant outdoor photos even in low-light condition aided by the f/4.5 aperture of this Vivitar film camera. Moreover, the Vivitar XM1K point and shoot film camera effectively removes the red pupils from the subject's eyes caused while using the flash, thanks to the red-eye reduction feature. Further more, this Vivitar film camera, supporting autofocus, lets you focus erratically moving objects with precision.

Best film for Vivitar V3800N 35mm camera

With modern film technology, use whichever one you wish, they're all good.

The differences between brands (even supermarket/drugstore own brands) is largely one of personal preference: some provide more vivid colours which suit certain subjects but to some they look unrealistic, others have a more subdued colour but to some they look too dull. In practice you probably won't notice the difference as the final colours depend upon which company processes the film and prints the photos, the machines they use, the brand of photo paper, the individual human operator, and whether for economy reasons they've stretched the life of their processing chemicals longer than recommended.

What make a bigger difference is film speed. Slower speeds (lower ISO numbers) give finer image resolution but need longer exposures, faster films (higher ISO) allow faster shutter speeds or smaller aperture settings (or both) but give a less detailed image. But it's true that a modern ISO400 film isn't much worse than the ISO100 films were back in the early 1970's. Given the modest maximum aperture of the lens you have I'd recommend that you avoid using IS0100 film unless you know that you'll be shooting the roll in bright lighting conditions. ISO200 is your best all-rounder unless you have longer telephoto lenses in which case you'll find that ISO400 is a better choice.

You can also save a lot of money if you buy out of date film: if it's been stored in cool conditions it's usually good for at least a year after the expiry date, but if you wish to use slide (a.k.a. transparency) film then it's best to reduce that to no more than six months.

The biggest difference to image quality is you and your understanding of how to use the camera, and the single best investment you'll make will be a tripod and shutter release cable: used together you can eliminate camera shake and ensure that your photos are as sharp as possible. Even a small bean bag can be used instead of a tripod if there's something to rest it on.

In short, you'll only find "your" best film by using lots of it, regularly, and experimenting to find a good photo lab and then sticking with it for as long as they do a good job.

Good luck, and I hope that I've helped you. Please feel free to ask me for further clarification if anything I've written is not clear enough, and when you're happy with my answer please take a moment to rate my reply.

What if the rewinding lever doesnt rewind ?

Change the batteries under the camera. This camera is electronic. With a new battery, the camera will reset the mirror and you can **** the shutter and lower the mirror. If this does not fix the problem you may have a shutter or advance problem and the camera would have to be send off for repair. Start witht he battery, that is the fix 9 out of 10 times.

Wont charge

Probably the battery pack is worn out or has a "memory" problem. A worn out pack will have one or more cells shorted internally (one or more cells read 0 Volts, and an ohmmeter reads less than 1 Ohm when connected to the 0 Volt cell). If it is a memory problem, it is possible to recondition it, but not simple. You have to remove the pack, then connect a 150 Ohm resistor across each cell and let the battery sit until the cells are completely discharged. You can't just connect a resistor across the entire battery pack because the stronger cells will reverse-charge the weaker ones, which will cause them to short out.

Running the battery too far down will cause the reverse-charge problem, but not running it down at least occasionally will cause the memory problem. (Memory problem explained: the cadmium crystals grow when the battery is charged and shrink as it is discharged. However, the larger ones tend to remain intact on discharge and grow faster than the smaller ones. Eventually they block the ion flow through the battery, so the battery loses capacity. It's called a memory effect because the battery only "remembers" it has the capacity to go down as far as it is habitually used. Running the cell all the way down dissolves the over-sized crystals.)

It is possible you have a problem with the charger. Check for voltage on the charger plug. It should be about the rated output voltage printed on the charger box before messing with the battery.

From the National Association of Counties

The MacArthur Foundation has announced an exciting opportunity to undertake local jail reform through its new Safety and Justice Challenge, a five-year $75 million investment that seeks to reduce over-incarceration in jails.

The Challenge is looking to improve local criminal justice systems across the country and safely reduce jail incarceration - with a particular focus on addressing disproportionate impact on low-income individuals and communities of color. Selected sites will reveal new and better ways of targeting resources, more effective risk assessment to determine if confinement is really necessary, and better public safety returns and social outcomes.

Twenty sites will initially be selected to receive a grant of $150,000 to support an intensive six-month planning process, during which they will rigorously examine how their jails are being used and what strategies will reduce the inappropriate use of jail without compromising public safety. Each site will produce a plan for implementing these reforms. Then, beginning in 2016, as many as 10 of these jurisdictions will be selected for a second round of funding of up to $2 million to support implementation of their jail reduction plans.

The turn-around time on this is fairly short—applications are due March 31—so we are sending you this information and RFP right away. More information about the Challenge can be found here: and the RFP is available here:

For further guidance, the MacArthur Foundation will host three live webinars to walk applicants through how the competition will work and answer any queries you might have about the application process. The webinars will take place on the dates below; registration is necessary to participate. To register, send an email to and indicate which webinar you plan to attend:

Wednesday, February 25 from 12:30pm - 1:30pm EST

 Thursday, February 26 from 11:00am - 12:00pm EST

Superior Cerebellar Artery

Superior Cerebellar Artery
Pons Arteries

The superior cerebellar artery (SCA) arises near the termination of the basilar artery.

It passes lateralward, immediately below the oculomotor nerve, which separates it from the posterior cerebral artery, winds around the cerebral peduncle, close to the trochlear nerve, and, arriving at the upper surface of the cerebellum, divides into branches which ramify in the pia mater and anastomose with those of the anterior and posterior inferior cerebellar arteries.

Several branches are given to the pineal body, the anterior medullary velum, and the tela chorioidea of the third ventricle.

Areas Supplied

  • Superior half of the cerebellum
  • Parts of the midbrain

The SCA is frequently the cause of trigeminal neuralgia, where it compresses the trigeminal nerve causing lancinating pain in the distribution of this nerve on the patient's face. However, at autopsy, 50% of people without trigeminal neuralgia will also be noted to have vascular compression of the nerve.

A mix of sautéed wild mushrooms adds lots of texture to this stuffing; lemon juice and zest make it tangy. The mushroom stuffing can be made vegetarian-friendly simply by replacing the chicken stock with vegetable stock. Slideshow: Thanksgiving Stuffing Recipes

How to Make It

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°. Generously butter a 12-cup muffin tin. Spread the pine nuts in a pie plate. Toast the nuts for about 4 minutes, until golden.

Step 2

Spread the brioche cubes on 2 large baking sheets. Bake for about 15 minutes, until toasted. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool. Increase the oven temperature to 375°.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the oil. Add the onion and celery and cook over moderate heat until softened, 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are tender and browned, 7 minutes. Let cool, then add to the brioche.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk the cream with the eggs. Stir in the stock, lemon zest and juice and 2 teaspoons of salt. Add to the brioche along with the parsley and toasted pine nuts and stir well. Spoon the stuffing into the prepared muffin cups. Bake in the upper third of the oven for about 45 minutes, until crisp on top and heated through. Unmold and serve hot.

Make Ahead

The unbaked stuffing muffins can be refrigerated overnight.
