In celebration of Book Blogger Appreciation Week, I'm hosting a special giveaway. The book blogger's life isn't always easy. You see, lots of times we write posts and reviews and then, well, people may read them but they sure don't always comment. (Unless the review involves a giveaway). Oftentimes it appears that our hard work is all for naught, when actually that's not the case at all.
This past weekend I wrote a review for a book called Legacy by 16-year-old author Cayla Kluver. No one commented. Now it's possible you have an aversion to princesses or maybe you were all off pursuing your own knight in shining armor/lady in waiting. Or maybe not. Most likely, many of you read the review or at least glanced at it and went on to the next post, the next blog. And there's nothing wrong with that. I'm guilty of lurking as well. But, I'll share a little secret with you. I tend to pay more attention to the comments on my non-giveaway posts because the volume isn't as high.
So, as a reminder to myself and others to take the time to comment more often and to encourage a little book blog comment love, here's a giveaway and a challenge.
Two Brimful Curiosities readers will each receive:
(1) copy of Legacy courtesy of AmazonEncore.
(1) Book of your choice under $20 (I'm offering this in celebration my blog's one year anniversary this month. Hooray!)
To enter, read my review of Legacy and leave a comment on this post relevant to my review.
BONUS BBAW challenge entry: Visit any book blog and leave a comment on one of their non-giveaway book reviews. Then leave a comment here with the blog name and title of the book. (Example comment: I visited Book Nut and left a comment on "The Beef Princess of Practical County")

Unless you're living under a rock, there's virtually no escaping the overwhelming marketing onslaught for the end-of-year holidays, which in some parts of the country starts even before Thanksgiving.
As the adage goes, there really is great joy in giving at this time of year and one should, said Justin Reckers, director of financial planning at Pacific Wealth Management. However, it's also very easy to get carried away, and even those with ample means can be swayed by the season, spending far more than they should and facing dire consequences when the joy wears off, particularly if they have left their shopping till the very last minute.
"Inevitably, I get clients coming in to see me in January – people who usually don't rack up credit card debt – saying they have put far more on their card than they should have and that they need to get a check cut from their investment portfolio to pay for this," Reckers said. "They overspend on the holidays, and that means I have to pull the trigger on an asset I'm holding for them, which of course then becomes detrimental for their future."
Although Christmas is almost upon us, financial advisors still have an opportunity to speak with their clients to get them to see the long-term effects that holiday overspending could have on their investment portfolio. Advisors need to appeal to the attributes of economic rationality and self-control that are in every human being, Reckers said, but get very quickly and easily overshadowed by the force and power of holiday marketing.
Marketing stokes certain human emotions, particularly as Christmas gets close, when the brain is prone to thinking, "I haven't shopped enough," Reckers said. This is when frenzy takes over and people are prone to spending in an irrational manner that can make their future financial situation dangerous.
"As advisors, we need to get people to veer toward self-control, to get people to realize that they are going to have these impulses that will take them over and cause them to do things they will regret in the future," he said.
Reckers works early on to get his clients to shop in an economically rational manner, to counter the economic irrationality marketing engenders and to bring their innate behavioral trait of self-control to the fore.
He tries to get his clients to think hard about who they feel they need to give gifts to and then to set up budgets.
"I advise people to avoid situations that could result in impulse purchases. I try to steer them away from the kind of anxiety that leads to a loss of self-control," he said. Men, for example, have an aversion for shopping malls, he said. They can get more anxious when it takes 25 minutes to find a parking place, which then makes them more likely to buy the first thing they come across in order to make a quick getaway.
While it's unlikely that his clients will ask him how much they should spend on Christmas gifts, Reckers nevertheless feels that it's his duty to get them to see the long-term implications of excessive holiday gift giving and spending.
"My job is to say, 'This is what is happening today, so if you do this, this and this, it will have this impact on your future," he said. "I do talk to my clients about what will happen if they overspend on Christmas gifts, and the long-term effects of going over budget, taking money out of their portfolio, the tax issues this will cause and how rebalancing will impact diversification."
The best way to steer human behavior toward economic rationality and self-control is to make holiday shopping a bigger decision in people's minds, Reckers said, by framing it in the context of the future, and by getting people to "distance themselves from the emotion of shopping."
"Most people can take steps back and think logically if they take the time to separate themselves from emotional causes," Reckers said.

EconoLodge in Gorman, California (Grapevine)
Posted 08 February 2010 - 08:58 AM
I work at the EconoLodge in Gorman, California. We're on the Gorman Post Road, but you really don't need the exact address because were just about the only thing in Gorman, other than a few houses, gas stations and fast food places.
This hotel, which was previously known as the Caravan Motor Inn, was built by the Ralphs family of Ralphs supermarkets, in the late 1960s. But I've learned that there has been some type of lodging either one or very near this property since the 1860s. Also, the movie Thelma and Louise was filmed here in 1991, but that is just neat history and has nothing to do with the haunting.
I spend a lot of nights here at the motel and, although I have only good feelings about the place, I have sometime heard things that I can't explain. I also see movement regularly at the corner of my vision or sometimes it will just feel heavy were I am. I've only stayed in one of the rooms (when I was snowed in here), and I thought I heard some breathing and it felt a bit heavy. This was the room were Thelma and Louise was filmed, room 222 upstairs. It's a balcony room but we don't usually rent it out because 1. it's upstairs, and 2. it needs a little work. The rooms on the first floor were fully renovated but not all of the rooms on the 2nd.
Anyway, the most unusual experience was when it snowed a couple of weeks ago. It was a pretty heavy snow, several inches, and the 5 Freeway was closed down. The restaurants attached to the building and next door were also closed because the employees couldn't get in. We didn't have any guests at the time - so it was just me and another employee alone in the hotel. We were taking turns keeping an eye on the place and it was late, so she went to sleep.
I was bored so I decided to walk around and I heard some people talking. I thought that maybe one of the restaurants had opened after all, so I went to take a look. They were both closed and chained. I shook the doors and looked through the windows but they were completely dark. Then I realized that a guest must have left a TV on, or I was hearing my co-workers TV. I starting walking down the 1st floor hall, toward my co-workers room, 127. By the time I got to 110 I realized that the talking was getting fainter - it couldn't be my co-worker. So I turned around and went back toward the lobby. I was about to start opening rooms when I realized that the snow had taken out the satellite dishes!!! We didn't have any television or internet working in the building all day! It couldn't be a television! But I was the only person in the hotel that was awake, and there was no TV, so where was I hearing these voice?
I walked around more trying to cage where the sound was coming from, and I came to realize that it was the loudest in the lobby. I stood there and listened to it for close to ten minutes, and this is after the 5+ minutes of searching, when it finally grew more faint and disappeared. I was never able to make out any of the conversation and couldn't tell how many voices - but sounded like a man and a woman at least.
This morning, toward the end of another graveyard shift, I went to set up the continental breakfast in the lobby. As I was setting up I heard some tapping coming from inside the lobby. It was VERY clear, and went on for quite a while. I took a look around, tried to find any drafts, and tried to find any hanging chains that could tap against metal - because that's what it sounded like - metal on metal - but I found no explanation for the sound. And of course, this was the first time I've heard it, having spent many many nights here before. I thought maybe it was a guest, but there was no one in the halls and it wasn't the type of sound that would have been loud enough for me to hear if it was coming from one of the rooms.
Basically, I have no idea what I'm hearing and seeing here. And without any explanation, the only other explanation that I have is that it may be haunted. But also, I've never felt scared here. This place was made by a family that had lived on the property for generations and it was made with love. That is the only feeling I've ever gotten here.
So I'm writing this to find out if any past guests remember this place, and did you have any experiences?
PS - Gorman is on the 5 Freeway between Santa Clarita and Bakersfield, it is at the summit of what people call "The Grapevine", and near the beginning of the 138 (Ave. D) to Lancaster/Palmdale.

I was reading up on the history of the area and found a looooong history of the place, including a few deaths here. The info I'm writing here is according to the Frazier Mountain Historical Society and the Santa Clarita Valley Historical Society.
According to them Gorman has the "unique honor" of being one of the "oldest continuously used roadside rest stops in California". It was commonly used by various Indian tribes when this small bit of land was a Tataviam village called Kulshra'jek. When the Spanish arrived they began using the trail that passed by the village right away and in the 1770's the spanish explorer Capt. Pedro Fages noted passing the village. The indian residents moved with the foundation of nearby Fort Tejon in the 1840s (still standing and open to the public as a museum and park).
The first white settler here was Charles Johnson and his wife Soledad Girado in the 1850s. Charles died here and the estate became known as "Rancho la Viuda", "Widow's Station" and "The Widow's Ranch". A traveler in 1855 mentioned the widow and her four children at the ranch who provided for the needs of travelers. The Johnson's moved shortly after that and the Reed family had moved in by 1857. The estate was renamed "Reeds Rancho". That year the strangest earthquake to ever hit California was centered at Fort Tejon. The adobe home of Reeds Rancho (supposedly on the site of the current hotel), collapsed and the large beams of the roof fell on a woman who died. Reeds Rancho was listed on maps as offering accomodations to travelers.
In the mid-1860's James Gorman moved onto the property with his wife Johanna O'Keefe. The built a new home on the spot (for sure the same spot as the current hotel, so this is the earliest confirmed building here). Mr. Gorman had rooms upstairs for guests and a large dining room downstairs. James died in 1876 on the road home to "Gorman" from Los Angeles, and their daughter died a year later, at the hotel.
By this time the ranch/estate was called "Gorman's Station" which Johanna ran until she died here in 1889. Fort Tejon shut down shortly after that and mining became popular in nearby Hungry Valley and Frazier Mountain (where I live), and Gorman Station became the popular entertainment spot for the miners. In the 1890's a woman named Mary Austin wrote "We took dinner at 'Hell', a supply station and hostelry, known sometimes as 'Gorman'."
The Gorman's sold the property to the Ralphs family (of Ralphs Supermarkets) in 1898. The Ralphe's family continued the tradition and improved the site by adding a Greyhound Station, a restaurant and an early Standard Oil gas station (the first to not be located near a railroad) in 1923. The road had finally been paved in 1919. The history says that they also "provided dormitories for employees and cabins for travelers". Charles Lindberg stayed here in 1930 to test fly a new glider here called the Albatross.
The history written by the historical societies really only goes up to the 1930s. I think it was around that time that the old hotel was built - by looking at the architecture of the building in the old post cards. That old building was for sure torn down and this one was built on its foundation in the late 1960s. Maybe 67 or 68.
So from the history I know for sure of the following deaths here:
Charles Johnson - about 1850
A woman, Mrs. Reed? - 1857
James Gorman (actually died on the road to Gorman) - 1876
Miss Gorman (daughter of James) - 1877
Johanna O'Keefe Gorman - 1889
I'm going to see if I can find anything in any of the local newspapers as well.

1. It was named after a famous outlaw of the mid to late 1800's named Tiburcio Vasquez. A cousin of my family, James Nurton Angel, had been a sheriff somewhere up north and had chased after him for quite a long time - but didn't catch him. He was caught however, and hung, in San Jose, California. Several of my ancestors were present at his hanging as I'm descended from several founding families of that city - including the Haun, Guerraz, White (White Road) and Robinson families. I would think that if anyone was haunting that place, it would be Tiburcio, since it was supposed to have been his hideout area - but then he didn't die there so who knows.
2. The film "Werewolf in London" with Spring Byington filmed the opening scenes in Vasquez. Or they used a backdrop painted from the famous rocks - either way the very distinctive structure is clearly scene in the opening shots. That was in 1936 I think? Something like that.
3. The first Flintstones movie was filmed there, the entire Bedrock town was built with trees, cars, everything. They allowed visitors to tour the set when filming was down, and it was left up for quite a while afterward. I visited the set and walked around inside the houses, it was great. That was in the early 90s? and the last time I was at Vasquez.
- Dale
PS - will for sure keep you posted on anything else I hear about the hotel. I'm not going to start another thread for Vasquez because I don't know of any happenings there. But if you've heard anything, please do!
Posted 05 July 2010 - 10:29 AM
But I have found out a couple of things, just in the last week, regarding more recent deaths to add to the list above. There have been two deaths here in the last few years - one violent. The first was an older man. He had come in, sick, perhaps with cancer or something similar, with his wife. They had come off the freeway because he wasn't feeling well. By morning he had died in his sleep. I don't know what room they were in, but he was most likely given one of the first floor rooms toward the front - because we do not have an elevator. We try to only give these rooms to older guests so they don't have to go up the stairs and don't have far to walk. I don't know when this was exactly, but it was while the current owners were here - so within the last 8 years.
The second was about two years ago. Apparently a man had killed his wife somewhere in the south. I remember reading an article about this and I want to say he was from Atlanta, Georgia, but I'm not 100% sure. After he murder he was on the run and was tracked down to our hotel! Apparently he was just on the road and stopped in here like most of our guests. The police surrounded the hotel and had him under siege. Quite a bit of excitement for our little place, normally very quiet! Really, the place is like Mayberry. Anyway, the hotel was evacuated and the police invaded - they broke out the windows in his room and tossed in tear gas. Apparently it sprayed red dye everywhere. When they entered they discovered that the man had shot himself in the stomach. He was still alive and they took him away in an ambulance, was DOA when they arrived at Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial in Valencia, 45 minutes away. So our hotel was the last place he had stayed. His room was #123, on the first floor toward the back of the hotel - facing the road (not the freeway). Because of the red dye tear gas, broken glass and the shooting - the room was completely re-done.
So that's the update, two more deaths to add to the list above. I'm sure there have been many more in all of those years between the century of 1900 to 2000. It's just the nature of any hotel were so many people stay.
Posted 05 July 2010 - 01:49 PM
I was just talking with the maid who has worked here for six years and she said she will not stay the night here. She usually works alone cleaning the rooms since it is a fairly small place. She said that just today, after our guests had all checked out, she heard people talking toward the back of the hall - but no one was back there. She said she also hears doors open and close, which I have also heard but have written off in the past. She only works during the day, but what the has experienced during broad daylight has been enough for her to stay way at night.
She also confirmed the story about the shooting in room 123 which happened June 11, 2009 - but the info was not correct and the correct info lead me to find original newspaper accounts. The man was from Kansas City, Kansas not Atlanta, Georgia. I had that wrong. The mans name was Franklin Grammer and he actually survived the attempted suicide. A newspaper account from June 12 says that he was taken to a hospital in Mission Hills (even farther than Henry Mayo in Valencia) and that he was expected to recover. Another account from June 29 says that he had plead guilty to the murder of his wife in Kansas City, and therefore was still alive and recovered from his wounds. The maid remembers that no one wanted to set feet in the room for a month afterward, they all believed the man had died. But since he didn't I'll remove him from the list.
However, there was another suicide! Seven years ago she worked at the Best Rest Inn in Lebec, one mile north of us. It was late May 2003 (about the 24th), she remembers because her birthday is May 31. A man committed suicide in one of the upstairs rooms here at the Gorman EconoLodge. She doesn't know which one (since she didn't work here), but I can't help but wonder if it was 222 - where I have stayed and heard breathing. The air always feels thick back there. Then a week later, on her birthday, a woman parked her car here behind our hotel in Gorman, and walked to the Best Rest Inn in Lebec where her husband (who worked in San Francisco, but lived in San Bernardino) was staying. She shot her husband and then herself. Our maid discovered the scene and had to stay until 8pm that night, missing her birthday party in Los Angeles. Although people were staying in the rooms around theirs, #109, no one heard the shots during the night. She remembered the date and place of the suicide here in Gorman because of the close proximity to the incident at her hotel in Lebec a week later. So here is the full list to date:
Charles Johnson - about 1850
A woman, Mrs. Reed? - 1857 Earthquake, fallen beam
James Gorman (resident, died on road to Gorman) - 1876
Miss Gorman (daughter of James) - 1877
Johanna O'Keefe Gorman - 1889
[# of deaths between 1889 and 2003 are unknown]
Suicide upstairs - late May 2003
Man - natural causes - about 2006

That's when I heard this peculiar sound. I've never heard it before and I don't even know how to describe exactly, other than a quick clacking - almost what you might expect from a wooden Victorian toy with two pieces of wood that a baby slaps together quickly - an early rattle. The sound was coming from the direction of the lobby. There are guests in some of the rooms between were I stood and the lobby - but the sound was loud and clear, sharp, not muffled. It wasn't coming from inside any of the rooms and none of the rooms doors were open, as I had just walked by them. There was no one in the lobby, I had just come from there and we have few people coming in at this hour.
I knocked again and they heard me this time and quickly answered. I gave them the pillows, said goodnight and quickly walked to the lobby. This was just 30 to 45 seconds after I heard the sound and the lobby was clear, no one in the foyer. I walked quickly into the office area attached to the lobby and looked at the security cameras - no one outside either.
I have no clue at all what the sound was. I've been here close to 10 months now? and I've never heard anything like this before. I can't think of anything in the hotel that would make such a sound. Yet another unexplained experience. But I do love this place

As far as recommending a room, that's hard to say. I've only stayed in one - Room 222 - and I did have a bit of an experience in that room once. I felt like someone whispered in my ear. But if you don't experience anything there, then you can at least know that it is the room where the movie "Thelma and Louise" was filmed in 1991. In the film, our hotel was the first one that they stopped at. As the one girl... can't remember her name... hung out around the pool Susan Sarandon called her husband on the phone upstairs. That was room 222 and the reason why I picked that room when I was snowed in here a few months ago.

I'm working the end of a graveyard shift, it's 6AM and get off in an hour. The guests in room 119 just asked if there was any water running upstairs, she said the water was turning on and off all night - the woman who shared the room with her agreed. I suppose she didn't complain about another guest, because who would keep turning water off and on all night. The only water upstairs comes from the bathrooms of the rooms and we have not had any problems with them or the plumbing. No one was in any of those rooms last night, nor was anyone in either of the rooms on either side of 119 (117 and 121).
Funny that nothing has happened for so long until just a couple of days after someone asked for an update, lol. I haven't had a chance to ask about an investigation here yet, but will.

It could be a leaking toliet in an adjacent room. One way to test for this is to place a dye tablet or food coloring in the toliet tanks and see if any dye shows up in the bowl.
Could be, but we haven't had any problems before or since.
I actually wanted to make a quick note for the night. I guess came in really late, at about 3:30 AM, and randomly mentioned that she thought the place might be haunted. I laughed it off and didn't really comment.
Later, a few minutes ago, at about 5:05AM, I was standing at the front desk and watching the TV that we have back here. The front doors were in my view, right behind the TV. I saw them open a few inches and close. Actually, I should say that I saw them close, kind of a slam (they had been closed all night) and at first I thought that a guest (who had a 4AM wake up call) had left, but I was amazed that I hadn't noticed him and he hadn't checked out. There was no one in the lobby so I looked at the security camera which shows the entire outside right in front of the entrance, and there was no one there either. I walked around to the front door and there was no one around.
Perhaps it was just the weather, but the doors are a little heavy and the wind would have to be pretty strong to move them as much as they did - and I've never had the wind open the doors in the past - at least not that I've noticed. Also, still regularly think I see someone walk past in the corner of my eye - but never full on. It's so frequent that I don't bother mentioning it each time here - and besides I'm not sure if it's anything. Maybe they are just reflections on my glasses or... a bug that has wondered in, who knows. Just thought I would mention.
PS - I asked the manager about having an investigation. She was fine with it but had to ask the owners. I haven't heard anything, I'll ask again.

Syncfusion has released an update to Orubase, its framework for developing cross-platform hybrid mobile applications. The .NET component vendor says that at the forefront of the update are several JavaScript controls for visualizing data, and support for HTML and JavaScript-based web applications.
With this latest update then we see that various editors, gauges, and charts are available as JavaScript controls. Developers have the choice to work with ASP.NET MVC or JavaScript when designing hybrid mobile apps, a choice unmatched (so says Syncfusion) in any other mobile application framework.
"Extending the foundation of Orubase to JavaScript makes simplified mobile application development available to many, many more developers," states Daniel Jebaraj, vice president of Syncfusion.
"Though the end results will appear the same, the familiarity of working with JavaScript makes the framework much more inviting to web developers looking to deploy across mobile device platforms. We continue to offer excellent support for ASP.NET MVC, and coming releases will continue to build on that aspect as well," he said.
Other new features in Orubase include Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 support, the Orubase Project Wizard enhancement to create HTML and JavaScript-based hybrid apps, plus signature capture support to record handwriting through touch gestures on Android, iOS, and Windows devices.
Future updates of Orubase will continue to support ASP.NET MVC and JavaScript-based apps, provide new ASP.NET MVC and JavaScript controls, and increase access to native device APIs to minimize the gap between web and native apps.

Get three smart guys together in a bar, give them a few drinks to get the "creative" going, and they're bound to hit on an idea. It's cliché to talk about the proverbial "cocktail napkin" moment, but the founders of CAIS proudly note they still have a picture of theirs.
"Yeah, there is actually a cocktail napkin; you want it?" Matt Brown, the firm's co-founder and CEO, helpfully offered.
Throw in the phrase "alternative investments," something that's received quite a bit of attention since 2008, and you quickly realize why their idea has taken off.
CAIS has launched what it calls the first global alternatives exchange, known as CAIS-X, which provides advisors with a platform for conducting due diligence, analysis and trading of alternative investments. The idea is that it will bring private vehicles into the public (advisor) space. With greater interest among advisors of alternatives in recent years, the value is readily apparent; something to which their 10% monthly growth can attest.
But don't let the name fool you. The firm's CAIS-X platform may be described as an online exchange, but Brown was quick to note they refer to it that way only to emphasize its product-neutral structure.
"Sometimes when we use the word 'exchange,' people jump to the conclusion that maybe it's a trading of existing interests in [alternative] funds or products," Brown explained. "Like a secondary market. But we always like to make it very clear that even though we use the term 'exchange,' our platform is for primary investment transactions. And we are custodian- and product-neutral."
Brown and cofounders Rafay Farooqui and Jeremy Norton have wirehouse backgrounds, and it was something they all noticed at their respective firms that got them thinking.
"My background is capital markets," Farooqui, the firm's president, said. "I started my career at Goldman Sachs and spent a lot of time there [with] alternative investment firms. The common thread we all saw was the departure of talent from the large infrastructure of the wirehouse to the independent space."
"The thought process was, 'Let's build an independent firm around that theme,'" Brown, a Shearson Lehman Brothers and Smith Barney alum, interjected. "The clear starting point was with the investment advisors, because of their interest in alternatives and the fact that so many are leaving large institutions."
They began in January 2009, and the platform went live with institutional clients in January 2011. It's strictly a B2B play: Their clients are advisors, and they target relationships with RIAs, broker-dealers, private banks and other professional wealth management institutions.
"That's a big distinction in our business, as well," Brown added. "We're highly focused on the solutions that advisors need to win and compete in the marketplace."
The core of the CAIS-X platform relies on bringing together members of what they refer to as the CAIS ecosystem, which includes custodians, product providers, administrators, due diligence providers and, of course, the advisors themselves.
"What you end up with is a single venue that has access, independent due diligence [and] execution, which is streamlined and integrated with the custodian's infrastructure," Farooqui (left) added.
The firm's intuitive, easy-to-use interface includes a dashboard with multiple features that he proudly trumpeted without seeming to take a breath.
"It's a monitor of tasks outstanding," Farooqui ticked off. "It's an alert-setting system so advisors can get a quick idea of the exposure their clients have in the alternative space. The product menu is set up to filter in much the same way as if you're buying an airline ticket. By that I mean if you want to go from New York to Miami, you'll have certain options. If you'd like a CTA manager in the same way, you'll also have certain options. You can set the criteria to get to the product that's right for you. We have a robust analytic system as well to analyze in depth each product. We are really in that business of making the advisor's experience seamless and with the fewest obstacles to enable them and empower them to go out and grow their businesses."
"[Relief] of friction and pain points by providing the solution is seen in every aspect of our exchange," Brown added more succinctly.
It's no secret the traditional hurdle to alternative investments is a lack of access, but it's one that's quickly crumbling as more products and services continue to move down market to the masses. It's also no secret that platforms like CAIS-X are largely the reason.
So when they speak of the alternative investment universe how, exactly, is that defined?
"The first stop for CAIS was to solve what we believed to be the most complicated piece of the puzzle, which is the traditional hedge fund investment," Brown (right) said. "The larger hedge funds are in demand by advisors, but have very high minimums. They might be getting access to those funds at bigger wirehouses, but outside of that architecture, no one has connected the dots with all the critical players. So getting hedge funds operationally accessible was step No.1."
The platform currently claims over 40 hedge fund product offerings and is growing. The second step, he continued, was to enter the private equity world.
"Like our hedge fund offering, we started with some of the top names in the space with seamless execution and integrated reporting and an independent due diligence framework."
Reflecting the "three easy steps" (or screens) adopted by many smartphone and tablet makers, the order execution system is one that Farooqui believes "is the first execution order entry system to make seamless the purchase of alternative investments."
The three steps are selecting the product, indicating which clients the advisor would like to buy for and entering the trade details and execution.
"Our minimums for all of our products are $100,000, so they can very efficiently be put in one portfolio in a diversified manner," Farooqui said. "The system then interconnects the ecosystem with administrators, custodians, and documentation and back-office functions. A top-line view of a team's performance is prominently displayed."
A hierarchy can be imposed for information viewing purposes, meaning a wealth management firm's CEO can see the alternative exposure across all his advisor teams, or a team can see their exposure and can then chose what to share with clients, as well.
While the platform is fully scalable (Brown noted it can fully service one advisor or several thousand), Farooqui claimed it's really built for "very large firms with multiple advisors, or an RIA to manage their overall exposure and performance."
Due diligence then becomes an obvious question, given that so many broker-dealers and advisors were tripped up by Medical Capital and Provident Royalty, and clients still negatively associate terms like "feeder funds" with Madoff and Stanford. It's a question CAIS takes seriously, and they've partnered with research and consulting behemoth Mercer to ensure it's done properly.
"They have many aspects of their due diligence on the investment side," Farooqui explained. "They have their operational due diligence, as well as monthly commentary that provides their views on a particular product or manager. We've separated the idea of access to product from the independent due diligence of that product. It's a very unique way to approach it for the wealth management industry. With most of the offerings out there, those two things are coupled."
He added that risk assessment firm RiskMetrics is their transparency provider, which gives advisors the ability to go deeper in examining what it is they're buying. Mercer and RiskMetrics are two respected names that should go a long way in reassuring skittish compliance departments. Still, with the aforementioned MedCap/Provident Royalty problems, what kind of resistance are they experiencing?
"Thus far, it has not been great," Brown claimed. "We've actually been welcomed. We know that part of our workflow very early on with any institutional relationship will involve legal and compliance. That goes for whether they're as big as HighTower or a few guys in a small shop. We provide management reports back to the firm on what advisors are buying, as well as the exposure and activity on the platform."
They can also imbed firm-specific disclosures and compliance requirements into the exchange. For instance, when members of that firm log on with their secure password, they may have to take a continuing education course at certain times of the year before accessing the platform.
So does the explosion in interest in the alternative space post-2008 make the platform an easy sell? If only it were that simple.
"Whenever you're a new business with a new solution, there's always a fair amount of work to do in order to get known," Brown added. "Our ability to work with firms that are growing themselves is a big opportunity. Many of the players are aggressively acquiring new advisors."
It's that much more of a challenge, and opportunity, when the platform is expanding globally. Co-founder Norton is heading up operations in and around the Pacific Rim and Asia, relying on the connections he made from his past experience in alternative asset management, marketing and distribution, having worked at firms including Fuji Bank, Castlestone Management and Brownstone Advisors.
In fact, all three partners have relied on personal relationships and industry connections to help build the business. It's something else that sets the platform apart—after all, how many technology platforms get their start without some sort of early-stage venture capital funding?
"We've built relationships with like-minded individuals," Farooqui said. "When we think about raising money for a venture like this, you first have to find strategic shareholders that understand what you're trying to achieve. When we approached them as partners, it was really with the idea in mind and less about the capital that they could provide. Today, they're a well-diversified group of 20-odd global family offices."
"We also believed it was important to go into this business with deep resources," Brown clarified. "This adventure is not for the light of heart, so building a company like this really requires having strong financial backing. One of the things that we're most proud of is having a global shareholder base that allows us to run a global platform. I know we're talking a lot about the independent space in the United States, but CAIS is in fact global."
One last question—where is CAIS going? For a global alternative investment platform that can accommodate every business model, from small independent to large wirehouse, the answer is what one would expect.
"We've been growing month over month on headcount," Brown says. "Of course, we're always adding to our internal technology team. We have our compliance and operations teams as well, and our sales and marketing. The team now stands at 25 people. We expect that to double in the next 12 months."
"We have demand coming in on a consistent basis [from] both our current and future clients," Farooqui concluded. "We have the best product providers in private equity hedge funds, real estate, etc., looking to partner with CAIS on an increased [basis]. Couple those with the need for lower volatility and lower correlation components in a wealth portfolio that an advisor needs, and those trends are the wind in our sail."

Auto Unions in the Soviet Union
Posted 28 September 2002 - 23:59
These are his main findings:
A) In autumn 1945 18 cars were transported by train from Zwickau to the Soviet Union: 13 Auto Union racing cars, plus one BMW 328, one Wanderer W25K, one Jaguar SS100, one Alfa Romeo 6C-2500 and one Alfa Romeo 8C-2900. The cars went to the NAMI - the Research Institut for Automobile Industry and Development - in Moscow.
B) In early 1946 the Soviet Ministry of Automobile Industry set up a work group of engineers to develop racing cars. They had access to the Auto Union cars at the NAMI, studied them intensively and used their knowledge to design and built the bodywork of a streamlined 350cc race car called "Swesda" (="Star"). It used a two-stroke DKW UL359 engine, and looked - not surprisingly - like a mixture of a 1937 Auto Union streamliner and John Cobb's "Railton Mobil Special" record car. Later the Swesda was further modified and developed. In all four Auto Unions were dismantled at the NAMI, among them one streamliner, and thereby destroyed.
C) At around the same time two cars went to the ZIS factory. They had decided to build a sports-car and got the Auto Unions for research purposes. One - a 16 cylinder with friction shock absorbers - was dismantled for closer examination, and later destroyed. The other - a Typ C/D hillclimb car with hydraulic absorbers - was tested without success: apparently the ZIS people had neither an idea how to set up the car nor to make the engine run properly. After that the car was also earmarked for destruction, but some people tried to perserve it and finally succeded - the car went to the Riga car museum, from where Audi obtained it later for a lot of money and a replica ...
D) Still in the immediate post-war period four cars - three Typ D from 1938/39 plus one streamliner - went to the GAS factory in Gorki (today again Nishni Novgorod). They got the cars to build their own racing cars, literaly: they used them part by part - components went into Podeba engined GAS, but also Moskvich and ZIL based racing and sports cars, apparently until nothing was left. One Typ D, however, was destroyed in a horrific crash during a demonstration run near Gorki on June 9, 1946: traveling at high speed on a narrow country road, driver Leonid Sokolov tried to slow down when fascinated spectators moved closer to have a better look on the silver machine. The car spun, flew over a ditch against a lorry and was catapulted back into the spectators. While the driver, who had been thrown out of the car during this, landed in the waters of the ditch and survived heavily injured, 12 persons where immediately killed by the car, and six more died later. (The article attributes the amazing fact that the GAS people were able to make the car run to a load of the right fuel left in the tank!)
E) A little later, around 1950, three cars - two open wheel cars and one 1937 Typ C streamliner - went to Vladimir Nikitin in Charkov, in the Ukraine. He was a racing driver/car constructor, and used the shortened bodywork and other parts of the streamliner to build an - of course - streamlined race car called "Charkov", which used a 4 cylinder Podeba street car engine. In the following years this was developed into the "Charkov 3" (also called "Avangard") and the "Charkov 6". Together with Nikitin another driver/constructor from the Ukraine, Eduard Lorent, had access to the Auto Unions - definitely the streamliner influenced the design of his also streamlined, but small capacity race cars called "Charkov L1" and "Charkov L2". For the two open wheel cars the Ukrainian driver/constructors had no use - these were the cars purchased by Paul Karassik in the 1980s. (The article says Nikitin was still a frequent visitor of the NAMI in later days, and collected only a short time before his death in 1992 a 16 and a 12 cyclinder from them! So far the search for these engines hasn't yielded anything ...)
Conclusion: Only three survivors in Russia - and no hope for more ... Over to the Auto Union experts ...
The source is Nikolai Alexandrow, "Beute-Boliden. Das Schicksal der Auto-Union-Silberpfeile in der Sowjetunion", Oldtimer-Markt, Oktober 2002, pp. 8-15. By the way, the article acknowledges the help of Peter Kirchberg - so it seems to have his OK ...
Mmmmh, and what 2.9 Alfa Romeo went to the Soviet Union, and what happened to it later???
Posted 29 September 2002 - 01:01
I think the conclusion of Mr. Nikolai Alexandrov about some three survivors in Russia is right and possible. And if it is in cooperation with Prof. Kirchberg, I believe it double.
As you wrote for the moment these are:
-The hillclimbing car from Riga ©.
-The two Karassik D-Types: one from 1938, the other from 1939.
But on the other hand, when I was working for Audi ten years ago and Audi was talking with the Karassik, making contracts about using, buying, restoration and so on about the cars. They always told us, there are other Silver arrows in Russia. And we hoped, they are right. But over the years I believe there will be no more car, maybe there are some parts (one of the Karassik cars was also a ruin, it was only a memory of parts).
But by the way in those days by Audi: one evening I got a call from a Russian guy. He would stand in front of the Audi plant, he got my number, if I like to have a look at a car. So after 10 min I was standing in front of a beautiful HORCH 930 V Cabriolet. The Russian made the whole trip from Russia to Ingolstadt with that car. About some 3000 km. Okay, it was an Opel 4-Zyl. engine instead of the nice 3.8l-V8-engine "installed". The car was in good condition, and here is the proof, that there were cars in Russia, which survived the years.

The fact that 76,018 were rescued from a factory ZIL-miracle
I suggest an interview with Russian magazine Autopilot with Victor Kulbergs director Motormuseum in Riga
He was only two years old when he learned to recognize the sound of a diesel, but now he likes to joke that in his blood since childhood was "a high content of petrol". In his youth, dreamed of becoming a pilot, "Formula 1", and indeed once was behind the wheel of a racing car, which started the car collection, which has no, perhaps, on the whole of East Berlin. He speaks with a subtle Baltic accent. Latvians have not made contact by my name, but call it simply by the name of the language is not rotated. Victor Kulbergs - President of the Chamber of Commerce in Latvia, President and CEO of Auto Riga Ltd, official importer of Audi AG in Latvia, but most importantly for us - he was the first director of the Riga Motor Museum.
Autopilot: Mr Kulbergs is now hard to imagine that once there was no grandiose building of the museum, nor hundreds of rare cars that are inside.
KULBERGS: We began really from scratch. In 1972 he registered the first in the USSR avtoantikvarny club, in sight of which were pre-war cars, including left by the Germans in Courland cauldron. Gradually we are overgrown with links throughout the Union, which has resulted in the collection of the club was a real gem - a racing car, "Auto Union", which in the 30's were racers, whose fame is comparable to today's fame Schumacher.
In April 1976 I received a call from Leningrad, a prominent Soviet avtoinzhener [b] Prof. William Beckman Vilgelmovich [/ b] and literally screamed into the phone: [b] "President, do something!" Those asshole on ZIL want to cut the "Auto Union" [ / b]. I phoned to ZILom, and I have confirmed: [b] "Yeah, depends on the balance of this junk. Right in the Leninist Saturday are going to cancel and cut "[/ b]. I remained for two weeks. For the first I had to make letters with strong signatures, in particular the chairman of the State Planning Commission of Latvia. Monday was already in Moscow, the receptionist Minavtoproma, and then a few days collecting signatures at the factory to them. Likhachev - from the director until rasposlednego accountant. On Friday tape was over, and in my hands was an act of "round-trip." Now I had to find a car - last seen about fifteen years ago.
In the yard of the factory was welded shed about fifty meters in length. Found the key, opened the gate, and there trash to the ceiling - not something that "Auto Union" can not see, can not even go. Pulled down a long time - motors, pieces of bodies ... In the farthest corner found something icky, resembling "Auto Union". With barely hooked, pulled truck on the street. Consider: sixteen pots - a machine for mountain races in 1938! Front hood was not, the side panels were not. The engine is intact, and the compressor was lying nearby - instead on the motor was a direct output-pipe, it was evident that the car "felt" without a compressor. Half an hour later closed checkpoint, and I'm without a vehicle, with a single portfolio. Miraculously, on the third gate stood empty ZIL-130, which was supposed to go to Riga for the RAF. This whole story - the parade of planets, a rare coincidence.
Autopilot: And a year later, judging by the photos on your wall, the machine went ...
KULBERGS: In our country the information was not enough - the Soviet riders who have studied after the war, exported from Germany technique, there is little they could to help us. With regard to foreign countries, we somehow managed to correspond with colleagues from Czechoslovakia and even Finland. In the end, the guys at Rafe calculated and machined jets for the carburetor. My father was a tinsmith, but I do have the second digit in the profession - we stamped the front hood. It's amazing just managed to make the grille: in those years for the confectionery factory "Laima" was purchased gedeerovskoe ventilation equipment and the profile of the grid was exactly the same - the Germans have not decided to reinvent. Working mixture prepared according to original recipes - ether, light petrol, castor oil, bought almost all Riga pharmacies ...
In short, we managed to bring the car in a more or less decent form in September 1977 to show his audience, which at Bikernieki road gathered the seventy-odd thousand. First dragged, "Auto Union" a few laps on the rope. And on the line "start-finish" guys unhooked me, I let the clutch pedal and the car in second gear was got. I had driven three hundred meters, but the feeling was incredible. Think about it: behind, as the Dome organ, buzzing sixteen cylinders!
Autopilot: Sixteen cylinders, seventy thousand spectators, correspondence with foreign enthusiasts ... While such activities are likely controlled by the KGB?
KULBERGS: At first it was really easy. Least because in Soviet times, even to the owner of one car looked suspicious, but many of us they were three or even more. In addition, any interest in Western technology was considered a bourgeois propaganda, as if the car is German, then to "fascism" was near. Just a few years we have managed to turn public opinion for a hundred and eighty degrees. We did it instinctively, without even knowing what a "Public rileyshns. Here then, in 1977, the news agency "Novosti" have taken on global channels, information about our rally under the banner: "Look, they say, how people live culturally in the Soviet Union, not only in the forest jerseys climb ..."
A year later, to us from California, said one Mr Gary Payne. He ran in the magazine to photograph "Auto Union", and for people who understand it is holy, for which you can go on a crusade. So he went. From Moscow to Riga, while foreigners could only reach by air and only under secret surveillance by the KGB. Of course, seeing the car, he immediately wanted to buy it.
Autopilot: Well, it's that you would not let just anybody!
KULBERGS: Oh no, here the problem is different. We were by then already an old bird, and knew that to sell something to a foreigner for dollars - a stupid idea, because all currencies will remain in Moscow. In Tula, I spoke with the famous inventor Gurevich, who had a "Bugatti" - one of the first cars released in 1913. In the late 60's through the mediation of "Avtoeksporta" he sold it abroad without receiving a penny. True, "Avtoeksport" too "Navariya" twelve thousand dollars - the car was worth much more expensive. In addition, the idea that we can sell the "Auto Union", was for us the psychological drama.
Autopilot: And how could he be?
KULBERGS: Several years ago, another survivor of the racing car brand was sold at auction for four and a half million dollars. In those days it cost if cheaper, not much. And it just was not served us bad service.
One member of the Politburo was in the early eighties in the West on a business trip and saw that people there are just crazy about old cars and are willing to pay for them "gold" - the word "currency" was then the criminal connotation. Once home, he realized that "we have this stuff too short." Minavtopromu, Avtoeksportu, the Ministry of Culture commissioned to conduct an audit and report, as we have, in the Soviet Union, things with old cars: how many of them, what condition and what money they can help out. By that time, similar to our clubs were already in Moscow, Leningrad, Kaunas, Tallinn, Kharkiv ... And although some jealousy present - who was the first where that will have time to get - we were "one religion", and together we managed to convince the authorities that trade is immoral historical values.
Autopilot: But the historical value, like art, should "belong to the people" rather than stand on private garages even the most wonderful club ...
KULBERGS: Purpose built Motor-Museum "from the early days was recorded in the Charter of our club. By the way, knew about this and our Californian admirer, who in the early 80's offered for "Auto Union" is not money, and the draft contract, on which, in exchange for a car he undertook to build a museum building in Riga. This project contract, we "shame" and the Council of Ministers of the USSR State Planning Committee, and in 1985 they decided to finance the construction avtomuzeya.
Autopilot: The museum owns all of the exhibits?
KULBERGS: No, almost half - private cars whose owners have quite reasonably decided that here to keep them safer. At any moment they can go to rally Consultations Contacts Excursions, ride a wedding or shoot for your magazine. Also the main and most valuable artifacts were acquired at the time the club and now owned by the museum. So, I had long talks with her daughters Gorky and persuaded them to sell the Lincoln proletarian writer. It cost us eleven and a half thousand rubles - in 1985 as worth a couple of new Zhiguli. For Rolls-Royce, which Brezhnev himself put on the truck on the Leningrad prospectus in 1980, we listed the cast of the Moscow Military District, three thousand three hundred fifty-four rubles seventy cents. Stalin's armored car, as well as "Auto Union", just rewrote a balance on the balance sheet. Sometimes matters are dealt with phone calls and bottles of brandy.
Autopilot: Unfortunately, in Russia, all attempts to create a public collection vehicles have not been successful - all either left to you, or even further west, or turned into scrap metal. Why do you got, and we have - no?
KULBERGS: Motor-Museum "I was able to" take out ", observing a total conspiracy of the enemies, which could hinder or jinx. Although we, too, turned out not all. After the collapse of the Soviet Union a lot of valuable cars from private collections drove off to the West. Qualitatively restore our pearl - "Auto Union" - we ourselves were not able to. We would like to have a living machine, but the body has become a foil, the engine, a resource which originally was "training and one race", the restoration is also not subject to, other parts could really put that on the sideboard. No one could restore a car other than a reproduction of worn out parts. "Auto Union" was sent to "Audi AG, and from there to the UK for restoration.
When the British conjured over the engine, to them, as they believe could reveal "the secret of Dr. Porsche: Why sixteen cylinders together provide more power than the power of each individual cylinder, multiplied by sixteen. It turns out, the doctor laid there a "chemistry", which is today except that the computer can calculate: each cylinder creates added compression to boost the neighboring cylinders. In total, this gives, as it were still the seventeenth cylinder - a dynamic effect which can not detect stationary. So, to achieve something, not enough to be an enthusiast and a dreamer. We need to know it. Only in this way, you may receive the seventeenth cylinder.

I want to ask 2 questions that I have long been interested in:
1. Several sources I've read about the project Auto Union Rekordvagen-where Berndt had to compete with Sir Campbell. In winter 1937-1938, this project has already existed on paper. This information may be at least part of the truth?
2. Two years ago ebаy been exposed to a full set of photos of the Rosemeyer accident.
Unfortunately I still have only a picture of very poor quality. Does anyone have them yet?
Hello Egor, here you have fotos of the Rosemeyer accident - Link
And here you can read in english what really happened - link
Thanks again for your posts.
Posted 07 January 2011 - 15:45
I read those articles before.
Yes, these are the photos. Missing only 2 photos of the body Rosemeyer that probably not laid out for ethical reasons.
I have one post-war picture, which so far no one can identify
we can assume that it is done around the same time as this
April 1945, Zwickau. The time of distillation racing AU from the mine back to the factory. Behind the wheel - the only one who was then working at the plant specialist to service them (all the others were at the front, and he was freed by age) - Max Breeze. And it's generally the two most recent photos of them in Germany. Next began the Soviet period.

I am stunned!!!
Indeed. This is amazing!

Therefore, I can't look myself for answers for the question I posted at the start of this thread and I'm still most interested in: Besides the Auto Unions, did the Soviets really get a 2.9 Alfa Romeo? And what happend to the car?

Wonderful new information! But because of, sorry, the language barrier, I can't read a word myself.

Can you find an online translator? Which language do you want to go from and too? Perhaps someone here can help?

I did some checking around and found another site (whose name I unfortunatly can't recall) with another photo of I believe the same car . This site said the car was reportedly built either with AU designs or perhaps even parts. But they also said the story wasn't true, although they didn't seem to be a definitive source. It is a complete mystery to me. Anyone know anything about this car?

This seems a good place to bring this question up, as perhaps Egor will have some info. I found this photo awhile back, a Russian streamliner speed record car...

Thank you for your positive feedback! I have read the legend about the fate of the Auto Union in the Soviet Union in the Russian motorsport magazine in 2001 and tried to find as much information
REDARMYSOJA, it may be part of the truth.
100% sure that the Soviets used the racers did on the AU in their cars: GAZ Metelev racer (racing Victory) left the memories of its kind - for Victory was a Rootes supercharger racing AC, and the inscriptions with the Pirelli tires were cut dental bormashinkoy ... Kurbatov - steering wheels of racing AU, we put on a racing ZILy back in 1964 ... And more! Look at the picture with the Avangard-3.
Here is not tucked away spitsovannye AC drives, and the whole machine - fully German. Pomogaybo added only two air intakes behind the fairing added aircraft type, and completely forge a nose. Why does your nose has changed? And because it crashed into a wall in the first race at the plant. Ambrosenkov on their cars put candles on the AU.
There is information that the candles were working in different designs until the mid 80s!
In the Soviet race car Moskvich T2 stood tachometer with Auto Union
Egor, thank you so much for all the information and photos. They are just wonderful. Please keep them coming.

I have long been fascinated by tales fo the Auto Union (s) in the Soviet Republic after the war. Anyone remember that TV documentary 'The Search for the Silver Arrow'?
See the thread "Mercedes-Benz W154 in Romania"

Egor, first of all thank you for the outstanding photos and documents you have posted.
But at the same time, my two cents about this story regarding Auto Unions being rebuilt into Soviet record cars. There's still no proof of this other than some visual similarity, and comparing pictures of various Pomogaibo's cars with streamlined Auto Unions you can note different proportions - wheelbase, similar but still different body lines and so on. I still think Mr.Alexandrov was mistaken on this fact and what we can see is a result of borrowing ideas from AU racers, but not the cars themselves. Even though I haven't read his book, I've seen a part of it which concerns Soviet racing machinery and can sadly state that there are many mistakes in photo captures alone - wrongly identified cars, years and people to name a few, which doesn't let me just believe his stories without any proof.

A Swedish friend of mine, the present-day owner of the one of the 112S, compared by my request the steering wheel of his ZIL with the detailed photos of the AU ones. His answer was short and definite: this is NOT an Auto Union wheel. And so on... Egor, before posting rubbish like this please try to find some serious arguments - other than "Mr. Alexandrov says that..." A bit more critical attitude to what he wrote in his book - and there wouldn't be a stone standing left of it. I hope my friend .ru would join the discussion - he is a better specialist in the "Silver Arrows" story than I am.

I have been watching this thread with fascination especially with some of the photos that have come to light. Am I wrong in thinking that this comment is a bit strong or is it just a translation thing.

IRVING, Texas -- Faced with intense pressure from two flanks, the Boy Scouts of America said Wednesday it needed more time for consultations before deciding whether to move away from its policy of excluding gays as scouts or adult leaders. Possible changes in the policy -- such as a proposal to allow sponsors of local troops to decide for themselves on gay membership -- will not be voted on until the organization's annual meeting in May, the national executive board said at the conclusion of closed-door deliberations. As the board met over three days at a hotel in Irving, near Dallas, it became clear that the proposed change would be unacceptable to large numbers of Scouting families and advocacy groups on the left and right. Gay-rights supporters said no Scout units should be allowed to exclude gays, while some conservatives, including religious leaders whose churches sponsor troops, warned of mass defections if the ban were eased. "In the past two weeks, Scouting has received an outpouring of feedback from the American public," said the BSA's national spokesman, Deron Smith. "It reinforces how deeply people care about Scouting and how passionate they are about the organization." Smith said the executive board "concluded that due to the complexity of this issue, the organization needs time for a more deliberate review of its membership policy." The board will prepare a resolution to be voted on by the 1,400 voting members of the national council at a meeting in Grapevine, Texas, he said. The BSA announced last week it was considering allowing scout troops to decide whether to allow gay membership. That news placed a spotlight on the executive board meeting that began Monday in Irving, where the BSA headquarters is located, but the deliberations were closed to the news media and the public. Early reaction to the delay from gay-rights supporters was harshly critical of the BSA. "A Scout is supposed to be brave, and the Boy Scouts failed to be brave today," said Jennifer Tyrrell, an Ohio mother ousted from her post as a Cub Scout volunteer because she's a lesbian. "The Boy Scouts had the chance to help countless young people and devoted parents, but they've failed us yet again." Brad Hankins, campaign director of Scouts for Equality, said the delay would have a direct impact on young men already in the scouting movement. "By postponing this decision, thousands of currently active Scouts still remain uncertain about their future in the program and are shamed into silence. We understand that this change is a huge paradigm shift for some, but this isn't a religious issue. It's simply one of human morality, and that is something common to all faiths." About 70 percent of all Scout units are sponsored by religious denominations, including many by conservative faiths that have supported the ban, such as the Roman Catholic Church, the Southern Baptist Convention and the Mormons' Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Michael Purdy, a Mormon church spokesman, said the BSA "acted wisely in delaying its decision until all voices can be heard on this important moral issue." The National Catholic Committee on Scouting said it would join in the BSA's consultations over the coming months. Whatever the outcome, the committee said, "Catholic chartered units will continue to provide leaders who promote and live Catholic values." Meanwhile, hundreds of conservative supporters of the ban held a rally and prayer vigil at the BSA headquarters, carrying signs that read, "Don't invite sin Into the camp" and "Homosexuality is a sin! BSA please resist Satan's test. Uphold the ban." Scoutmaster Darrel Russell, of Weatherford, took his wife and five of their seven children to the rally. Russell said having gays in the scouting movement would be like mixing boys and girls. "The whole idea is to protect our boys at all costs," Russell said, warning that if the ban is lifted "we're shutting down our troop." President Barack Obama, an opponent of the policy, and Texas Gov. Rick Perry, an Eagle Scout who supports it, both have weighed in. "My attitude is that gays and lesbians should have access and opportunity the same way everybody else does in every institution and walk of life," Obama said Sunday in an interview with CBS. As U.S. president, he is the honorary president of the BSA. Perry, author of the book "On My Honor: Why the American Values of the Boy Scouts Are Worth Fighting For," said in a speech Saturday that "to have popular culture impact 100 years of their standards is inappropriate." The board faces several choices, none of which is likely to quell the controversy. Standing pat would go against the public wishes of two high-profile board members -- Ernst & Young CEO James Turley and AT&T Inc. CEO Randall Stephenson -- who run companies with nondiscrimination policies and have said they would work from within to change the Scouts' policy. Conservatives have warned of mass defections if Scouting allows gay membership to be determined by troops. Local and regional leaders, as well as the leadership of churches that sponsor troops, would be forced to consider their own policies. And policy opponents who delivered four boxes of signatures to BSA headquarters Monday said they wouldn't be satisfied by only a partial acceptance of gay scouts and leaders. "We don't want to see Scouting gerrymandered into blue and red districts," Hankins said. Nancy Deveau, of Mansfield, accompanied her 10-year-old son, wearing his scout's uniform, to the rally at scouting HQ. She said she doesn't want Scout leaders to drop the ban. "We wanted to pray for our Boy Scout leaders to keep our values," she said.
