Growing up as the son of a Marine, Matt Hendricks heard about the value of living in a free country from his father, Doug. The Washington Capitals forward listened and believed it.
But it wasn't until this month that it sunk in, when Hendricks spent a week visiting troops in Bahrain, Kyrgyzstan, Afghanistan and Germany as part of a USO Tour. Talking about the less-than-stellar living conditions with Sgt. Major Bryan B. Battaglia, Hendricks got the point.
"He just looked at me, and he said, 'This shows you that freedom isn't free. There's a price to it.'" Hendricks recalled. "It's hard to understand that. You see stuff on CNN and video on the Internet and pictures and things like that, but it doesn't do it any respect until you're actually there and witnessing it firsthand to see how incredible it is."
Hendricks witnessed plenty during his weeklong trip alongside Washington Nationals pitchers Ross Detwiler and Craig Stammen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey, singer Kellie Pickler and comedian Iliza Shlesinger. They landed on and took off from an aircraft carrier and flew in Black Hawk helicopters.
"We got to do a lot of things that you could cross off your bucket list," Stammen said, "and then you also got to do a lot of things you felt like were a good service to the people overseas who can't be home for Christmas."
That struck a chord for Hendricks, even as an athlete who goes on road trips and has to be away from his wife, Kim, and young children, Gunner and Lennon, for long periods of time.
Getting to spend more time at home is a silver lining of the NHL lockout. Still, Kim Hendricks encouraged her husband to go on this trip, even though it meant going away just before the holidays.
"She thought it would be, obviously, a great opportunity and a life-changing opportunity," Hendricks said. "And she wants our kids to look back on this trip and learn from it, see the importance in doing things like this."
The Hendricks family is based in Minnesota, and Kim was the one who reached out to Defending the Blue Line, an organization that helps military families. It was through Defending the Blue Line that Matt Hendricks was asked to go on the USO Tour.
Naturally, one of his first calls was to his father.
"Like anybody does when you're looking for guidance, you seek the person that's given it to you throughout your life, and for me that was my dad. When this opportunity came, I asked him his take on it," Hendricks said. "He said, 'Other than raising your family, this might be one of the most important, life-changing things you can do.'"
As professional athletes, Hendricks, Detwiler and Stammen are used to signing autographs, but the ones they signed for military men and women meant more. They sat after USO shows for hours, signing for those in line.
"Just being able to talk to them, to shake everybody's hand and say thank you and try to pump up the troops, we had a number of people come up to us and tell us how much that meant," Detwiler said. "I don't picture myself as a celebrity at all. … I felt like it was me just going over there saying thank you, but they were telling us, 'You don't know what it means to these guys to bring a little piece of America over here.' It kind of rejuvenates them."
Hendricks talked to an Army solider from Minnesota. Detwiler saw Mark Hankes, who he played summer baseball with during high school in St. Louis, and someone who had his mother as a teacher. Stammen ran into David Moss, who recognized the pitcher from a baseball camp he worked at in Ohio.
Moss was hospitalized at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany.

The River Run Trail connects us with Otter Brook Park, which is a large flood control dam and recreation area, run and maintained by the US Corp of Engineers. Snowshoe trails are primarily backcountry trails that follow old wood roads along the Otter Brook River basin or some wind their way up to the top of our Alpine Area with many great vistas looking west into Vermont. Granite Gorge grooms and maintains a 1km man mad XC snow loop in the basin area around the lodge for use when natural snow may be lacking. This proved to be very popular with local teams for training during the early season last year.

I'm not sure but someone is.
I can tell you this. Some TV news managers claim they know who watches the local news. But when I asked how they knew, their answers didn't satisfy me. In my opinion, their evidence was flimsy at best. But some TV news managers feel obligated to appear they know who is watching. Someone needs to take a leadership role during editorial meetings and provide logic when deciding which stories to cover. What stories do people care about? I heard that question countless times during meetings. Imagine if TV news managers said "I really don't know who's watching. So your guess is as good as mine."
Ratings help break down the age groups watching. But are single moms truly watching a specific newscast? If American Idol airs before your newscast, are music lovers actually watching the news that night? On that night, should the newsroom assign more stories about iTunes or concerts?
Maybe TV managers, similar to Colonel Sanders, have a secret formula tucked away in a safe with all the answers. But when I asked, people in the newsroom never convinced me they really knew who was sitting in the living room enjoying the latest edition of breaking news and brush fires along the highway. I inferred I should simply stop asking the question.
So I don't know the answer. And I'm still asked the question. When people asked me what I did for a living, they often apologized for not recognizing me, saying they don't watch the local news. Most of my friends insist they don't watch the local news. But someone still is. Enough people recognized me or my name over the years that I assumed they watched my station with consistency. Some people were even familiar with my style of reporting. If you need further proof, check out a local TV anchor's Facebook page. Anchors briefly mention they smoked a cigar or they post a picture of the weather and a gazillion people reply. I mean it! A gazillion!
Businesses hand out company flyers pointing out they appeared on a station. I know one business which mentions its appearance on its outgoing voice mail. Media relations clients tell me about the leads they receive after appearing on the news. Some companies simply believe appearing on the news gives them some extra credibility. And with webpages, phone apps and Twitter updates, you don't need to turn on the TV for your local news.
I don't know for sure who watches the local news. I don't know their wealth or education level. I can guess but not with much certainty. I've asked. I've debated the topic numerous times, even to the point where a TV manager whispered he honestly didn't know either. But someone is watching. And at any given time, the news still offers you an opportunity to share your business with a whole bunch of people.

price is more than fair...that car is awesome.
Every once in a while I browse through the mkiv R classifieds in hopes of finding something id be interested in. Just saw this and thought wowzers, first at the price then at the build itself. But after looking at it again id have to say its a good deal.
Considering how much money has to be tied up in this build I for one think its a fair price. If I had the money lying around Id jump on it. The car only has 8k miles on it.
HPA is selling one of their MKIV R twin turbo cars at 72xxx. Those cars make 5xx hp with a twin turbo kit and the one they are selling has 23xxx miles on it.
For that work and attention to detail, $50k is a fair asking price. To me, it's still just a Golf. But be damned I'd sooner spend $50k on this than a new TT-RS.
My one question: if he has over $200k invested, wouldn't he be more than financially capable to keep it and buy a cheaper SUV for the kid?
Last edited by C4 A6; 05-30-2012 at 01:09 AM.
if the logic is that because hpa is "asking" $70K for their car, then this car is a value at $50K, there is no logic at all.
i suppose it's possible i am completely ignorant, but are wildly staggered wheels ok for that drivetrain?
beyond the raping of the body, this car reeks of all show, and perhaps a looped owner. which doesn't always work out for the buyer. if he truly has $200K in it, well, i guess it's good he's got passion. sounds like a nursery addition and a new 911 to me, but to each his own.
i wouldn't be surprised, and again, what the F do i know, if that car is NOT faster than its stock counterpart on a proper racetrack. but it sure has lumps.
Be nice to have a link to his build thread.
"What's that loud, boring sound you'll hear when I stop talking?"
"It's an albino humping worm!"
"Why do they call it that?"
"Because it doesn't have any pigment."
Seems like a fair price but I do not get building a $200k Golf at all. I'm not hating because there are things I do with my money that people wouldn't understand but dam, a $200k Golf.... not for me.
There are a lot of other cars I'd spend 50 grand on before getting it. If I wanted power I'd probably get a Z06 or supercharge/turbo a base Vette. If I wanted luxury I'd get an A6. I could probably come up with a very long list.

and heres the FS thread
Meh, I'd rather buy an Evo for $30k and put $20k into it and still whoop on this thing.
I'll be in my bunk.
"What's that loud, boring sound you'll hear when I stop talking?"
"It's an albino humping worm!"
"Why do they call it that?"

Pretty amazing build from what I can see so far. Very nice attention to detail.
"What's that loud, boring sound you'll hear when I stop talking?"
"It's an albino humping worm!"
"Why do they call it that?"
"Because it doesn't have any pigment."
if i was in the market for this kind of thing it would definitely be worth 50k but i would sooner buy a ttrs..... also i have a hard time believing this thing has 200k into and you would be stupid to sell it if you could afford that kind of work to me its more like 100k
Honestly? It looks like a very nicely build car with a lot of attention to detail with a lot of money invested. I have seen people pay more for less. In reality, if someone wants it $50K bad, they will pay it. Personally, if I had FU money and a hard on for a MK4 R32, I would be all over it like stank on isht.

"What's that loud, boring sound you'll hear when I stop talking?"
"It's an albino humping worm!"
"Why do they call it that?"
"Because it doesn't have any pigment."
Basically what I'm saying: who in their right mind would invest "$200k" in a Golf and then need to sell it for what I can only assume are financial reasons (what with a baby on the way.) If he could afford to spend that much on the car, then there's no reason he should need to sell it, even if it is for a more practical car. He should just be able to buy another car.
you heard me i could build this car for 100-120k easy including labor..but i wouldnt
oh and read the post above
I remember a few months ago a B5 S4 avant that was heavily modified was for sale on ebay. Very similar to this R32. It has a full RS4 conversion and other mods. Owner was asking ~$55k I believe. As far as I know it's still not sold
There is a very limited market to sell something like this. People that are going to spend well above market value for a car often like to personalize the car themselves, not someone else's iteration
I would never buy it because a VW Golf isn't my type of car, with exception to the MK1. I am always curious as to why someone spends so much money and effort to build an awesome machine and then sell it. I know having the same car for a long period of time can get boring, but I would think that kind of car would give you some excitement for quite a long time. The price is high, but it is not outrageous. Given enough time someone will buy it at that price.
"What's that loud, boring sound you'll hear when I stop talking?"
"It's an albino humping worm!"
"Why do they call it that?"
"Because it doesn't have any pigment."
We all need to wait about eight months to see how much she'll force him to sell it for.
Attention to detail my a$$. The flairs on that car are atrocious. Extending sheetmetal in a flat arc from the wheel diameter gives you lovely pointy intersections at the body. POS.
The only thing I disliked about this R32 is the interior... But for $50k you're really getting a steal for how much power this thing is making.
It's definitely worth the money. It is definitely not a good buy, however. For $50K there are 10 other cars I would have before this. If, on the other hand, one always wanted a ridiculously quick R32 - this is the time and the car to get
What other car has 750awhp for 50k?? Not many if any.
Problem w these builds, they are always personal and reflect the personality of its owner. New buyer won't be getting that satisfaction.
I'm sure he will find somebody willing to pay the price(or close to it). There are people out there who like buying finish show cars, and since its R and regular GTI there is some rarity in those.
I know I know its only a Golf and its not BRZ but....
"Your pants too tight,your wheels too bright"
Maybe he priced it that "low" because its a salvage title. Build thread shows it had a fire in the trunk with less than 1000 miles on it.
This is a great point. I look at this car and read the specs and know that it's very well done. The attention to detail is almost OEM perfect. And at $50k, you're probably getting a deal. But if I legitimately had $50k to spend on a car, I think I'm at the point where I'd rather have something else. Maybe a used c6 z06 or maybe a Boss 302 with a blower. Having gone outside the VW world for my last 2 cars, I realize that there are simply other places I'd rather put my money that I think would be more fun--and wouldn't need nearly the level of modification.
I'm the "6cylVWguy" of 5-6 years ago would be all over this car, but the "6cylVWguy" of today would probably look elsewhere. To me, this is the type of project I'd undertake because I had a stock R32 that I loved and wanted to see just how much I could get out of the platform and motor. I just don't think I could buy it all done up for that much cash though.
Is $50,000 for a Golf crazy? Yes.
Is putting a claimed $200,000 into a Golf crazier? Yes.

Ellisville City Council Has Funeral Protests, City Manager Contract on Agenda
Check the agenda for the Ellisville City Council meeting Nov. 7.
Ellisville City Council will review funeral protests, site development and plat plans for the Fountains villas, and City Manager Kevin Bookout's contract at the Nov. 7 meeting.
Gathering for the first time since Oct. 17, the Council will review Bookout's contract specifically revising severance terms. The city manager contract would call for six months salary and health insurance upon leave by removal or resignation. The updated version would include another month's salary per year served in the position, capping at a 12-month severance pay. Bookout has been with the City of Ellisville since 2006.
Other items on the agenda:
- A petition from West County Honda and Royal Gate Dodge for permission to temporarily park vehicles on property at 15970 and 15978 Manchester Road
- An ordinance for the final plat and amendment of the site development plan of the Fountains villas on Clayton Road; developers are requesting to build more of a specific floorplan villa instead of another that has proved to be less successful real estate
- An ordinance amending commercial zoning districts legislation
- An ordinance "enacting a new section relative to protests at funerals"
Check back with Ballwin-Ellisville Patch for updates on these decisions. View the full agenda here for the Nov. 7 meeting at 7 p.m. at Ellisville City Hall.
8:34 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I've dealt with Mr. Bookout on a couple of occasions over the years, and found him to be really responsive and helpful.
On another note, is it really necessary to put in an ordinance to try to prevent the Westboro crazies from protesting in Ellisville? It'll likely not hold up in court, and tie up the city. Additionally, it would more likely make Ellisville attractive to Westboro for any services. They MAKE MONEY from suing towns who try to prevent their free speech rights. Aren't there more important issues to spend time on?

Walking Dordogne offers a wide range of exciting and unique tours in the Dordogne and Vezere Valley. We are constantly adding new trips to our already extensive list.
In May of 2010 Walking Dordogne will be launching a new trip for mountain bikers ( and hikers in a later stage ) We are in the middle of connecting a vast network of trails that will cover the whole Dordogne, giving the riders to reach all the main attractions using off road tracks and trails and remote and rural roads.
Walking Dordogne is looking for Dordogne accommodation owners who would like to add their property to be listed as an option to stay while exploring the Dordogne on Mountain bike and Foot.
Walking Dordogne will not benefit financially from any accommodation offered. All we are hoping to achive is to add a list of accommodation to link to the Trails. We welcome the more remote and rural accommodation, but it is definitely not a "must"
If you have accommodation in the Dordogne and can accommodate mountain bikers (and their bikes in a secure setting) and / or hikers then please contact us with your details and we will get in touch with you.. Or if you know someone with accommodation in the Dordogne, please forward them this link, I'm sure they will thank you for it.
Thank you

Creamy Leopard
I've only used the delicious and creamy Posh from Revlon once before, and I forgot how unbelievably beautiful it is. It totally makes this manicure something incredibly special.
The half moon leopard print manicure isn't anything new (you've probably seen The Daily Nail version), but I love it with the green!
The leopard print was created using the Chalkboard Nails tutorial and the colors were Sand Tropez and Case Study (Essie), and Black Onyx (OPI). It was a simple design to do, and I'm lovin it!

Electric Car Owners Reduce Carbon Footprint in Style
With solar panels to power their new vehicle, Louis and Nadine Sapirman won't be stopping at gas stations much.
During their New Year's party, More Road residents Louis and Nadine Sapirman were getting ready to welcome the new year when they got a surprise: a new Tesla S coupe was delivered to their driveway in time for a midnight test. The car—the innovative vehicle designed from the get-go as an electric car by the high-tech manufacturer—had been expected to be delivered in December, but when troubles on the vehicle carrier it was shipped from the Fremont, Calif., plant kept the local shop from being able to unload it, the Sapirmans figured it would be a while after the holidays before they saw their car. Instead, a surprise delivery as the family's guests watched added a special twist to their New Year celebration. Any gas company credit cards …

Dude Nice job! Hope the repairs are not to bad you might have caught it before it went terrible.
Posted 10 July 2012 - 06:45 AM
Thanks! ya Im hoping that it all goes smoothly. I'm going to order everything tonight after I pull the top end to measure the cylinder. Any tips from you engine guru's on things to watch out for or be carefull of durring the build?
Posted 10 July 2012 - 10:40 AM
I just remembered something else. Last night I was cleaning the bike up a little before tear down and as I was whiping down the rear shock spring I noticed it says "Factory Connection" any idea how I can figure out what it is sprung for?
Posted 10 July 2012 - 10:54 AM
If you have the guys name that sent to suspension into FC, you can call them up and they will tell you. also they will revalve it for free for you now that its already been done by them.
Posted 10 July 2012 - 01:37 PM
sweet, good to know. good news is the cylinder looks good and has not been bored. The knock was the lower rod bearing as I suspected. Just pulled the trigger on the parts so hopefully I can post a running vid soon!
Posted 11 July 2012 - 10:46 AM
for 800$ and you made a thread? sheeeeeeezzz. i would have bought trhat bike already without even asking for any advise. yeah, late CRs have the noise. itsa PV thing that makes it.
Posted 12 July 2012 - 03:55 AM
ya this was a little more that the pv. the lower rod bearing was completely shot. I might be able to get away with just replacing that but I'm just gonna do the whole 9. Ill put up a price list when im done buying stuff for it (ha like that will ever happen) to show total investment.
Posted 16 July 2012 - 12:51 AM
Such a bargain man. You could sell parts off if the motor was completely shot and still be up.
Nice find

I had a mentor many years ago (Dougie Bennett) who was a retired shipwright, he taught me that if you can't get it or afford then make it.
Next on the casting front will be a base for the hydraulic anchor windlass. I have a new reduction gearbox & old manual Lofrans windlass from which the main shaft is a perfect fit through the gearbox, this will be driven by an hydraulic motor from an engine mounted magnetically clutched pump. Loads of power & hydraulic pressure to drive other items.
Locally all we have is iron stone (going a bit too far?) so I have to melt old gearbox casings & other quality aluminium. However I have found that it pays to melt the scrap first then remove the dross & cast into ingots before remelting for the actual casting.
The mill I use for all sorts of things including engraving the lettering on the inside of acrylic electrical panels, picking out in white then spraying over with black plastic paint.
Although I started hand programming the mill with "G" code recently I discovered "CamBam" which uses layered dxf drawings to produce the code & works really well.
Anyway thank you for the encouragement.
Best regards,

The fuel tank holds 77 Ltrs & is insulated to deaden any drumming noises as it is located under the aft bunk.
Also I hope that the insulation will reduce any build up of condensation inside the tank. I have no evidence to prove that it will
work but for a little extra effort I thought it was worth a go.
For insulating the hull I have a cunning plan which involves making quilts from 100mm of glass insulation wrapped in breather
membrane with some stitching to prevent sagging then fixed to the inside of the hull using either Velcro or double sided sticky tape.
It will be cheap to make, easy to fit & remove (most of all no spray glue).
During the recent snow I have been in the workshop making parts which as you know are shown on the "TT" website.
Great to see your work is being displayed & appreciated at the boat show!
Is your space frame new or original?

Our space frame has been modified by Maria and the keelson is new since it was really badly corroded. Now everything is Awlgriped and looks nice.
Posted 30 January 2013 - 07:07 AM
Our tank is smaller than I would have liked but to squeeze it into that space it is as big as it can be, we shall carry fuel in cans as a back up & I might put another
tank in. As a race boat it had the tank near midships in the main cabin which took up a lot of room where you need it most. The original water tanks are midships
under the settee's & hold 68 ltrs each.
As soon as the weather improves I will spray the mast white using Jotun Mega Gloss, the standing rigging is ordered, all of the electrical panels are made & soon
I hope to start the engine.
We went to the Southampton boat show last year ( free tickets from the paint supplier ) & really enjoyed it.
I am sure that your boat will attract a lot of attention & that you will make some useful contacts.
Good luck, enjoy the show,

1/ We measured the panel size & added 5%, the membrane & glass was cut to this size.
2/ The cut parts were placed on top of the membrane front panel which was cut with a 100mm overlap.
3/ Corners were then folded & tack taped.
4/ All of the overlap seams were folded then sealed with waterproof gaffer tape & double sided carpet tape placed at 400mm centres.
5/ Horizontal loose stitches can be put through both membranes at 400mm centres to prevent the insulation slumping.
6/ Fitting is done by sliding the quilt into place, removing the backing from the carpet tape then pressing to the hull.
Viewed from the front none of the tape or seams can be seen.
Holes or slits can be cut in a finished quilt then the edges sealed with gaffer tape.
This idea is our solution to the problem of a low cost DIY removable hull insulation, in due course we will find out how it performs & report the results on our website.

The engine has been started & run for 15 mins then the oil & filter was changed. We also changed the gearbox oil
& checked it with the engine running.
It seems that the engine was only a few months old when it was last used & not had its first oil change. This is born out by
how well it started & ran.

First thank you OPA1 for the comment she is a good looking boat, I think Ron Holland IOR yachts have iconic design features much like the E-type Jag.
Recent work completed includes overhauling the forward hatch with a new seal, 12mm acrylic glass & respraying the frame. The seal was a real swine to fit & took several attempts to complete.
I have made new settee top frames which are fitted with zigzag springs for a bit of comfort, they hinge up giving access to lockers below & will improve ventilation to the underside of the cushions unlike plywood.
It has been really cold here recently so we have been using an electric fan heater & since fitting the insulation the inside is really warm & pleasant to work in.
E-bay has been kind recently both with selling surplus items & buying bits like a B&G fluxgate compass & a Webasto heater, during the past two years we have bought a lot of items from E-bay for "TT".
All of the standing rigging has been made & delivered, new hydraulic hoses will be fitted to all of the rigging rams & as soon as the weather improves we intend to spray the mast, spreaders & boom.
After the mast has been fitted we are planning to launch "TT" & go sailing for a month, although she will not be entirely finished it will be a good idea to try her out before finishing the fitting out.
We hope to be in the water sometime in May which would be two years since we bought her & nine years after she hit a reef near Cork.

Settee frame is interesting bit of work. What's it made of? Did you fabricate it or source it (if so, where?)
Posted 11 April 2013 - 03:31 PM
I made it from 25x3mm welded steel angle & zig zag springs from E-bay. Don't think it weighs much more than a plywood base & would ventilate much better.
Could be made from aluminium angle if weight is a consideration.
There is a central "U" part to the frame to stop the springs pulling the middle together.
It is very comfortable to sit on.

Some more pictures of the latest work which included sanding & painting the cockpit, fitting the new traveller track & teak ends, replacing a teak trim at the cockpit edge, fitting the hydraulic backstay ram & bolting two new genoa tracks to the deck. Two years of work so far & about two months to go still loads more to do but its good to be fitting parts instead of removing them.

I've been boat shopping and just recently checked out an old Peterson Two Tonner. It was in better shape than what you started with but I decided the amount of work and then crew needed to sail it were just too much for me.
Man did it fly when we took it out though! One of the best sails I've ever had. I was astounded by how light it was on the helm - barely more than my old Quarter Tonner. It was like sailing the worlds biggest dinghy. Standing at the rail, steering that battleship with a tiller extension was quite an experience.
You're doing very nice work and are in for some incredible sailing when you're done.
Posted 07 May 2013 - 07:09 AM
Thank you SJB, hopefully launch day will be this summer, the plan is to sail her for a month then back into the yard for more interior work followed by an early launch next year.
I can only assume that she will sail well, this is according to "if she looks good then she goes good".
This is my last big project I want to spend more time sailing & less time scrubbing Sikaflex or Gorilla glue off my hands!

There is no doubting that Michael Schumacher's stock is not at its highest right now. One of the German's lowest points came just last weekend when he was handed a 10-place penalty for crashing into Toro Rosso's Jean-Eric Vergne during the Singapore Grand Prix. To cap it all, for months he has been at the centre of rumours suggesting that he is yet again on his way out of F1. However, a glimpse into Schumacher's real value came the week before the race and it didn't just show how valuable he is to the team but to F1 itself.
The revelation came at the first annual Zoom auction of signed photos taken by F1's drivers and team bosses. Classic car specialists Coys were in charge of the auction which took place in the Wyndham hotel in Chelsea on 14 September and was hosted by former team boss Eddie Jordan. He got the 200-strong crowd going with a stirring tribute to the late Sid Watkins and the incredible work done by Great Ormond Street Hospital which the auction was in aid of.
Pitpass was represented at the event by its editor Chris Balfe and business editor Christian Sylt, whose Formula Money firm arranged the event with Influence, the marketing firm run by Watkins' son Alistair and former Ford communications boss Stuart Dyble.
As the photos from the event reveal, there was a strong contingent from F1 there along with Jordan including Damon Hill, James Hunt's brother David, photographer Keith Sutton, FOTA's secretary general Oliver Weingarten, Red Bull Racing's head of brand Anthony Ward and representatives of some of the wealthiest team owners in the sport. In addition, there were wealthy collector types and flying the flag for celebrity F1 fans were former England footballer Ledley King and Dragon's Den star Duncan Bannatyne. Sky was there and filmed the event for a highlights package which will be broadcast on Friday during its 8pm F1 Show. However, the really interesting part wasn't the champagne and smooching but the bidding itself.
Half of the total of 50 photos were in the live event with the remainder going in an online auction which only has a few days left to run. Just like those in the live event, all the photos in the online auction are signed and all the proceeds go to Great Ormond Street. The photos available online tend to be taken by the drivers who have strong fan bases in countries far from the UK as they are least likely to have been able to attend the live event. The photos sold live were taken by most of the British drivers as well as globally well-known names such as Sebastian Vettel, Mark Webber, Fernando Alonso, Bernie Ecclestone and Schumacher. The pattern of bidding told an interesting story.
The photos each sold for around £450 on average which is mighty impressive given that amongst this group were also signed snaps taken by less well-known names such as Toro Rosso team boss Franz Tost and his counterpart at Marussia John Booth. It is even more surprising given that signed photos of top drivers such as Alonso and Webber typically go for nearly five times less. This alone shows the premium you pay for buying a unique photo taken by the person who signed it.
Some of the photos however were sold for much more than the others and there was an entertaining bidding war between Hill, Sutton and marketing boss Xander Heijnen for a photo of two snowmen taken by Ecclestone. In the end Hill was the lucky recipient of the photo when the hammer fell at a price of £1,100. It's a sizeable sum but still less than half that of the one which made the most money. This is where Schumacher's star power really showed through.
Schumacher's driver's eye view from the seat of his Mercedes in the pits went for a whopping £2,500 with several guests in the room being driven up by a phone bidder from California who eventually got the photo. It is hardly the most innovative of photos but the fact that it sold for far more than any of the others is undoubtedly testimony to Schumacher's worldwide appeal. For the sake of comparison, a Schumacher autograph goes for around £299 meaning that his photo sold for around eight times its value instead of the four times which was raised by the snaps taken by many of his rivals.
Given that this seems to suggest Schumacher's recognition and appeal may well exceed that of the other drivers one wonders whether F1 should not be urging the former champ to retire again but instead be doing all it can to keep him in the sport. Or is it perhaps the case that Schumacher has become so synonymous with F1 that even if he is not racing the man on the street will think he is still involved? It may sound laughable but there is some evidence for it as studies have shown that in unprompted surveys many people still associate F1 with tobacco brands which left the sport long ago.
One thing we can safely say is that Schumacher has star appeal in the United States and the buyer in California isn't the only evidence for that. A few years ago in a memorabilia shop in Florida packed with signed items by the most famous sporting names in the US. The most expensive item happened to be a Ferrari book signed by Schumacher and his former team-mate Rubens Barrichello which was being sold for £2,350 ($3,800).
With the US Grand Prix returning in two months after a five year absence Schumacher could be just what F1 needs to build its own recognition in the US. Unless it wants to shoot itself in the foot, the last thing the sport would seem to need is Schumacher announcing his retirement. So forget all the talk of why McLaren needs to offer Lewis Hamilton enough to stay with the team, it is surely Mercedes which should be ensuring that Schumacher stays because he may not just be the biggest asset of the team but of F1 itself.
Check out the entire collection of pictures in the Zoom gallery, here.

The tour of Astoria's Shallon Winery is pretty standard. Owner Paul Van der Velt discusses the pumps and fermenting tanks, then allows guests a peek into the laboratory where he fine-tunes the libations that bear the Shallon label. As you settle in at the tasting room's bar, though, you begin to get a sense of something not quite right. Maybe it's the large harp sitting in the middle of the winemaking equipment. Or the pinkness of the place—the color is everywhere, infusing the winery with a strange, valentiney glow. Or maybe it's the point where Van der Velt carefully pours you two glasses of his favorite creations: lemon meringue and orange chocolate wines.
Welcome to Astoria, a town that does things a little differently. Unlike its generic, sand-and-tan neighbors, Seaside and Cannon Beach, Astoria (the oldest U.S. settlement west of the Rockies) is a town with both history and color unmatched on the Oregon coast.
Perched on a gentle slope above the mouth of the Columbia River just below Washington state, Astoria radiates a Northern Exposure-esque charm. As you walk the shady streets, though, keep in mind that it wasn't always so peaceful. Known as "the wettest town in the West," Astoria once rivaled San Francisco for its cornucopia of gambling dens and bordellos. In 1896, it was the state's second-largest city and home to over 40 saloons. Despite the best efforts of reform-minded legislators (who outlawed "whooping" within town at one point), Astoria didn't quiet down until the entire state went dry in 1916.
Interacting with Astoria's colorful history is one of the biggest joys of visiting. Plan on coming in June when the Scandinavian Midsummer Festival turns the town upside down. This three-day party celebrates the waves of Finns, Norwegians, and Swedes who made up more than a quarter of the town's population in 1900. The weekend includes a parade, dancing, and a rollicking beer garden perfect for downing lutefisk and letting fly with a hearty Uff-da!
Even if you can't make the festival, there are plenty of fun ways to get in touch with Astoria's history.
Your first opportunity will likely come when you reserve a room. Astoria's fondness for its past is reflected in the number of Victorians transformed into bed-and-breakfasts.
One of your best bets is Clementine's. Owner Judith Taylor's selection of cozy, balconied rooms is complemented by two separate family-friendly apartments (one of which spent its early life as Astoria's Moose Lodge). Those looking to get away from the crowds should head for the Astoria Inn. Located a five-minute drive from downtown, the landmark's rooms are among Astoria's most romantic. Larger and no less historic, the Rosebriar Hotel was a convent before it was turned into a B&B-style hotel. Rooms range from simple to lavish, with those on the upper end featuring river views, fireplaces, and spas.
Start your exploration of Astoria at the town's crown jewel—the Flavel House. Bar pilot George Flavel was a Donald Trump figure in Astoria's boomtown days; it was here in cupolaed splendor that he spent his retirement. The house is now a museum dedicated to Flavel.
Learn more about the town's bawdy era at the Heritage Museum (the "Virtue and Vice" exhibit is a frolicsome introduction to the town's lively past).
For a complete education on the local shipping trade and nautical exploration, head to the Columbia River Maritime Museum. Along with viewing a host of exhibits, visitors may peer through a working periscope and stroll the bridge of a World War II warship.
If tales of hardtack and scurvy have you hungering for some fresh grub, you're in the right place. The tiny Columbian Café is revered by foodies up and down the Oregon coast for its creative, fresh-off-the-boat dishes. Those with cast-iron stomachs should try the Too Damn Hot shrimp, while those with sensitive (read: normal) stomachs can stick to less searing dishes such as smoked salmon hash and curry broccoli crepes. At Someplace Else, another Astoria gem, owner and chef Lauren Arena takes frequent working holidays to learn cooking secrets from around the world; she complements her Italian standards with forays into French, Mexican, and Indian cuisine.
Work off your meal with some window-shopping. Finn Ware sells a smorgasbord of Scandinavian goods, from imported crystal to sauna supplies. The RiverSea Gallery is the best place to view the work of painters, potters, and other local artists.
Adventurous-types should take a drive south to Fort Clatsop National Memorial. Lewis and Clark (and an entourage that included Shoshone guide Sacagawea) spent an awful winter here in 1805-6. Having arrived at the height of the rainy season, the group hastily built a minuscule fort and hunkered down for four months of fleas and rancid elk meat. The reconstructed fort commemorates the explorers with films, exhibits, and reenactments of daily life.
To the north, there's Fort Stevens State Park. During World War II, a Japanese submarine fired at Fort Stevens, earning it the distinction of being the first military installation in the continental United States to be fired on by a foreign power since the War of 1812. Visitors can explore the labyrinth of concrete battlements, visit the military museum, or wander around the iron skeleton of the Peter Iredale, a freighter that ran aground in 1906.
Make sure you're back in time for sunset. On clear evenings, locals make a migration to the 125-foot-high Astoria Column. Covered in sepia friezes depicting the settlement of the West, the landmark sits on the highest point for miles around. As the last embers of the day wink out, all eyes gaze out over the same intersection of river and sea that has drawn explorers here for almost two centuries.

The biopic 42, chronicling the history-making career of Jackie Robinson, is set for release in April, to coincide with the start of the baseball season and the anniversary of Robinson's jarring introduction to the major leagues as a member of the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Largely forgotten is that the NFL's colour barrier came down a year earlier in 1946, when Kenny Washington and UCLA teammate Woody Strode broke in with the Los Angeles Rams.
By rights, the NFL should be celebrating its history of diversity, enlightenment and acceptance this week in New Orleans during Super Bowl week - except that the exclusion narrative still exists, says Brendon Ayanbadejo of the Baltimore Ravens.
Ordinarily, a reserve linebacker and special teams star wouldn't command a large platform on the Tuesday of Super Bowl week, the traditional media day, although the 36-year-old Ayanbadejo has been named to the Pro Bowl three times and is considered one of the most valuable players at his craft in the NFL.
But the former Winnipeg Blue Bomber, Toronto Argonaut and B.C. Lion - a player who used the Canadian Football League as a launching pad to an NFL career - is in the spotlight for his hard-hitting approach of a different sort: his eyebrow-raising views as a champion of gay rights and same-sex marriage.
"I do welcome that attention, because I love bringing attention to the cause," Ayanbadejo told The Vancouver Sun just before the AFC champion Ravens arrived in New Orleans Monday to begin Super Bowl preparations.
"I love being a catalyst for change. I definitely see this as an important civil-rights issue. If I have a spotlight on media day, I'm definitely going to use it."
Now in his 10th NFL season with his third team, Ayanbadejo was both a CFL and West Division all-star in 2002, his only season with the Lions before leaving for the NFL. Back then, he talked of returning to Vancouver when his football career was done to live and study law at the University of B.C. He's going in a different direction now, taking courses at George Washington University in the MBA program, but he does see politics in his future.
"I think about getting into politics, definitely," Ayanbadejo said.
"Anything that helps our society progress and evolve, I'm all for that."
Four years ago, when he became one of the first American pro athletes to speak out in support of same-sex marriage, some of his Ravens' teammates made crude remarks about Ayanbadejo's sexuality (he is a father of two) and slurs were directed at him on Internet message boards.
But the snubs seem to have just emboldened him to chip away at the bricks of the football establishment.
While Super Bowl media day is usually full of pat answers and tired cliches to formulaic questions, Ayanbadejo holds out the promise of throwing a change-up to the monotony and predictability.
He probably will say something interesting when afforded the media attention, but he says he'll never forget why he's in New Orleans.
"I'm in the twilight of my career," he said. "After we win the championship, what more is there left to be done? I'm taking my career one day at a time now, and we'll see where it goes.
"There might be a little more attention focused on me this week, even though it's not about me - it's about the cause. Human rights is a more important issue than football and will always be. But this week, it's 1A. No. 1 is winning the Super Bowl, and that's where my focus will be - to get that ring."

Towards a new related rights for newspaper publishers in Germany?
On August 29 2012, German federal government passed a revision of the national Copyright Act granting ancillary copyright protection for news publishers.
If adopted this proposal would enact a related right that would ask commercial aggregators to pay publishers for their use of headlines and extracts of news article.
Here is a link to the original proposal in German.
And one to a non-official translation in English.
This proposal is under discussion in the Parliament.
Google and other stakeholder have criticized this proposal as, according to them, it would harm the internet business and the freedom of expression right.

I bought the game recently and have thoroughly enjoyed in it since then. However, the one thing that has truly stuck inside my head about it is the music. Ever since I gave the demo a whirl, it's been looping non-stop during those uneventful times of my day. I did a little investigation into the game's data folders, but I don't recognize any of the content package extensions, so I'm at a dead end when it comes to extracting them myself.
So, I have a simple question for the developers; do you plan on releasing an SDK in the future that might allow us to extract the music? Or perhaps the soundtrack as a download by itself?
