Trial Description
This laboratory study is assessing tumor marker YKL-40 in patients with newly diagnosed stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer, primary peritoneal cavity cancer, or fallopian tube cancer undergoing chemotherapy. A study that assesses the tumor marker YKL-40 may help doctors learn how patients respond to treatment.
Further Study Information
I. Assess the ability of the serum marker, YKL-40, to detect response or lack of response to primary chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed stage III or IV invasive ovarian epithelial, primary peritoneal cavity, or fallopian tube cancer.
II. Compare the predictive accuracy of YKL-40 vs CA-125, in terms of disease response to chemotherapy and relapse, in these patients.
I. Assess the ability of YKL-40 to detect recurrence of ovarian epithelial, primary peritoneal cavity, or fallopian tube cancer in patients who are in first remission after primary chemotherapy.
II. Assess the ability of YKL-40 to predict poor outcome in these patients.
I. Determine alternative cutoff values for YKL-40 elevation in these patients. II. Determine the variability of YKL-40 and CA-125 measurements in patients receiving primary chemotherapy and in patients in primary remission.
III. Determine the accuracy of YKL-40 coupled with CA-125 measurements in predicting chemotherapy response, progression-free survival, and overall survival of these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a prospective, longitudinal study.
Patients undergo blood collection at baseline and then periodically thereafter for evaluation of tumor marker YKL-40. Serum values for YKL-40 are compared with those of another tumor marker, CA-125, to assess the sensitivity and specificity of YKL-40 in detecting early-stage cancer, response to treatment, and disease relapse.
Patients are followed periodically for up to 10 years.

text: NARS Desdemona Dual Intensity Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.05 oz.) is described as a "rich shimmery burgundy." It's a medium, warm-toned plum with reddish-brown udnertones and a pearly sheen. Applied dry, it had more opaque color in terms of coverage, but it had a more faded, lighter look than when it was applied wet, where it was slightlyd arker and smoother–but the difference is very slight between the two types of application here. This shade wore well for seven hours dry, seven and a half hours damp. NARS China Seas #2 (P, $24.00) is darker, more muted. Anastasia Pink Sapphire (LE) is similar. Makeup Geek Burlesque (P, $5.99) is browner, less shimmery. Makeup Geek Enchanted (P, $6.99) is similar. Chanel Seduction #1 (LE) is less shimmery. theBalm Alice Copper (P, $16.00) is darker. MAC Brazenly (LE, $15.00) is darker. Inglot #452 (P, $6.00) is darker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

I removed the motor and pump assembly. I had to unplug the motor and drain solenoid, remove inlet and drain hose, and loosed the recirculate hose and water return to pump clamps. I also had to remove the ground wire on the motor. I removed the solenoid and bracket. I had to cut the push nut off with diagonal cutting pliers. The seal removed easily. I buffed the shaft with emery paper and reassembled the drain solenoid. The push nut took a little effort to seat in place. I reassembled in reverse order. i still have a leak, only not as bad. I am sure the shaft is loose in the seal.

Report: Nets reach out to Celtics about Kevin Garnett
|06.26.13 at 7:59 am ET
According to a report in the New York Daily News, Nets general manager Billy King called the Celtics about the availability of Kevin Garnett but has not heard back from Boston.
Garnett, 37, has a no-trade clause in his contract and said last season he would not waive it. However, that was before coach Doc Rivers left. The 15-time NBA All-Star has two years and $24.4 million remaining on his deal. He averaged 14.8 points and 7.8 rebounds last season.
The Nets have the 22nd overall pick in Thursday's draft. They also reportedly are trying to trade guard MarShon Brooks.
Garnett played alongside new Nets coach Jason Kidd on the 2000 U.S. Olympic team.

BJP today termed the Naxal attack on security personnel in Chhattisgarh as an attempt to "influence" the Lok Sabha polls.
"We condemn the unfortunate incident...Naxals carry out such strikes before elections. Before the assembly elections, they had carried out a similar attack to influence the polls but they failed.
Again they have carried out an attack when the Lok Sabha polls have been announced.
But they will fail this time too," BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad told reporters here.
Prasad also sought the reaction of "Delhi-based intellectual supporters of Naxalism" to today's attack on security personnel.
In a brazen attack, Naxals this morning ambushed a security team killing 15 personnel, including 11 of CRPF and a civilian in Sukma district of Chhattisgarh.

Wait a minute, wait a minute….ohhhhhh I creamed again just thinking about it…this is so much better than actually getting laid…I mean, I imagine…I've never really been laid…with anyone besides myself that is…I could I suppose, but I just don't have time…I have to focus my time and energy on getting on the 1st page…I'm so awesome!

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Tablet Plus
LUMEN Paris Louvre
15, rue des Pyramides, Paris, France
Neighborhood: 1st Arr. (Musée du Louvre/Les Halles)
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
A little explanation is in order to properly introduce the new Hotel Lumen. Paris exists in another league when it comes to hotels — its enormous volume of tourist traffic combined with its general scarcity of real estate places it in the same pricey bracket as London or Tokyo. Combine that with a generally conservative bunch of hotel decorators — no, we don't get it either — and you've got a pretty solid rule of thumb: you can have an affordable hotel, a stylish hotel, or a conveniently located hotel, but rarely two of those, and almost never all three.
We'd be lying to you if we told you the Lumen belonged in the budget category. But to find a hotel this stylish and modern, located literally steps from the Louvre, is a pretty big deal. And the price is really very much in line with the product: this is a top-flight luxury boutique, whose striking contemporary design fireworks are discreetly hidden behind the facade of a classic Haussmannian townhouse.
The thirty-seven rooms and suites vary in size, but they've all got views of one kind or another, and all look sharp, in custom-made furnishings and marble or Bisazza-tile bathrooms. And the ace in the hole, to add to the location and the look, is the restaurant: O'scar serves contemporary Italian cuisine with front-row views of the Saint Roch church.
- Complimentary upgrade upon hotel check-in, based upon availability

What I liked:
Perfect location for shopping and sightseeing. Very close to Metro. Modern and warm. Front desk staff were incredibly helpful & pleasant. Loved the touch of the complimentary bottle of wine to start our trip.
What the hotel could do better:
Small details....There were 2 of us but they only stocked one robe. Even when we asked for a 2nd robe the first night, subsequent nights were back to one robe only.
Also, both my guest and I are men but the welcome notes were addressed to "Madame et Monsieur". Understandable oversight but still, a detail missed.
Lastly, they don't seem to have a turndown service....which seemed odd.

Katrina Bowden Is Esquire's Readers Sexiest Woman Alive
'30 Rock' starlet Katrina Bowden is officially Esquire magazine's Readers Pick the Sexiest Woman Alive. She won a March Madness-style bracket tournament to claim the spot, though she was dubbed an underdog and "seeded" relatively low, ranked No. 10 in the TV division.
Bowden was photographed by the anonymous photographer helming MeInMyPlace.com, a site that shoots "real women, in their real homes, in their real clothes, at their invitation," according to Esquire. Watch Katrina's acceptance speech video and see more sexy photos here.
►On her start at '30 Rock': "I found out I was playing Cerie on Friday, and started on Monday. I was so scared that I got kind of lost getting there. So I walk in the room late, out of breath, and everyone's just sitting down at the table staring at me. Then Tracy Morgan gets up and says, 'Don't just stand there lookin' beautiful - sit down right next to me!'"
►And she claims to love french fries.

Welchol is contraindicated in individuals with bowel obstruction, those with serum triglyceride (TG) concentrations of >500 mg/dL, or with a history of hypertriglyceridemia-induced pancreatitis.
The effect of Welchol on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has not been determined. Welchol can increase serum TG concentrations particularly when used in combination with sulfonylureas or insulin. Caution should be exercised when treating patients with TG levels >300 mg/dL.
Welchol may decrease the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Patients on vitamin supplements should take their vitamins at least 4 hours prior to Welchol. Caution should be exercised when treating patients with a susceptibility to vitamin K or fat soluble vitamin deficiencies.
Caution should also be exercised when treating patients with gastroparesis, gastrointestinal motility disorders, major gastrointestinal tract surgery, and when treating patients with dysphagia and swallowing disorders.
Welchol reduces gastrointestinal absorption of some drugs. Drugs with a known interaction with colesevelam (glyburide, levothyroxine, and oral contraceptives [ethinyl estradiol, norethindrone]) should be administered at least 4 hours prior to Welchol. Drugs that have not been tested for interaction with colesevelam, especially those with a narrow therapeutic index, should also be administered at least 4 hours prior to Welchol. Alternatively, the physician should monitor drug levels of the co-administered drug.
Primary Hyperlipidemia: In clinical trials, the adverse reactions
observed in greater than or equal to 2% of patients - and more commonly
with Welchol than placebo -- regardless of investigator assessment of

The Best of 2012 - Looking back at another great year of rugby
You never know with the French. They're able to win this 6 Nations. That will also depend on their fitness. Don't forget they play the weekend before the 6 Nations start. And international players are not released as early as they should. Ask Warren Gatland...
France didn't win a competition in 2012, but they won 33-6 against Australia in november and that pleased the French supporters more than anything else.
PS: Don't think England are the best team in 2013 because they won against an All Black team which were not themselves at times. England should be in a good position, though. They're able to win but nobody will let them do without a good fight :)
Happy New Year 2013 everyone !

It's called the "Pilou-Pilou" and it's sung before each match at the stadium.
This was a song created by a former rugby player named Marcel Bodrero at the end of the 40s. It's used today to warm-up the crowd before the matches. This has nothing to do with Maori culture.

When a cloud privacy breach occurs in Canada, what happens? In some cases, businesses are subject to mandatory breach notification requirements. This means that a privacy breach - whether as a result of a hacker, a lost USB or some other human error - must by law be reported to the commissioner and to affected individuals. Ontario has implemented mandatory breach notification under its Personal Health Information Protection Act. In Alberta, organizations subject to the Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) are required to report a breach to the commissioner "without unreasonable delay" where a "reasonable person would consider that there exists a real risk of significant harm to an individual as a result of the loss or unauthorized access or disclosure".
The "real risk of significant harm" requires some analysis in the event of a breach and the Alberta commissioner's Mandatory Breach Reporting Tool (PDF) has been released recently, to assist organizations determine if they are required to report a breach under section 34.1 of PIPA. This area of law may be changing further: a private members bill was recently introduced in Parliament to implement mandatory data breach reporting in the federal personal information protection law.
Here's a recent case that illustrates the pitfalls of a cloud privacy breach in Canada:
The privacy lessons are clear: get advice on privacy implications of the cloud-based service, and don't underestimate the importance of well-drafted privacy policies and user terms. Cloud service providers should also take time to understand the breach notification protocols that would apply in the event of a privacy breach.

Bruins beat Senators, Tim Thomas breaks save percentage record
|04.09.11 at 3:37 pm ET
The Bruins held fan appreciation day at the Garden Saturday and made sure they delivered a win to the home crowd, beating the Senators, 3-1.
Daniel Paille, Nathan Horton and Rich Peverley, provided the goals for the B's, though it was the goaltender who may ultimately end up being the biggest story.
Claude Julien said following the game that Tuukka Rask would play in the regular-season finale Sunday, meaning Tim Thomas has set the NHL record for save percentage in a single season. By finishing the game with a .9381 mark, he surpassed Dominik Hasek's .9366 save percentage in 1998-99. The stat first began being recorded in the 1982-83 season.
Marlborough native Bobby Butler scored the Senators' only goal, beating Thomas at 18:27 of the first period.
With the win Saturday, the B's are still alive to potentially take the second seed in the Eastern Conference, though they will need a combination of one or two points Sunday vs. the Devils and for the Penguins and Flyers to lose their final games in regulation or in overtime/shootout fashion.
– Thomas' performance this season has been nothing short of magnificent, so it's fitting that he be remembered for it in the record books. It was just months ago that Tuukka Rask was the obvious choice to begin the season as the B's starter. Ever since Thomas was given the second start of the season in Prague, he's taken the opportunity and run to what should be his second Vezina Trophy.
– By playing in Saturday's game, Mark Recchi moved past Chris Chelios for fourth all-time. He has played in 1652, and it could take nearly another full season for him to catch Ron Francis' 1731.
– Paille once again submitted a strong case to be in the lineup next week. His tally on Saturday was his fourth goal in the last eight games. Considering he had just two goals on the season prior to that stretch, it's a good sign.
– Shawn Thornton can hold his head high knowing he produced an even 20-point season offensively for the Bruins. His apple on Paille's goal gave him 10 on the season to match his total of goals. This season has now produced career-highs in goals, assists and points. Thornton had never scored more than six goals in a season, though he did have nine helpers a year ago.
– While everyone was glad to see Horton score his 26th goal of the season, there was reason for concern when he left the ice following his second-period fight with Zack Smith. He would end up returning to the ice, but the last thing the Bruins would want would be for the hot-scoring Horton (six goals over his last nine games) to go down with an injury before the playoffs.
– While Paille may have cemented his suspected playing status for the beginning of the playoffs, Tyler Seguin did not do anything to help his case. The rookie was placed in the lineup Saturday in place of Patrice Bergeron, but the game provided more cases of the 19-year-old shying away from contact. Seguin was a minus-1 on the day.

How about people focus on making games with better graphics and story,and forget making games that you can play in some glasses while walking to work?
Why not both?
It's not like AR and good graphics and story are mutually exclusive. In fact, I don't really understand why one would have any effect at all on the other.
Personally, I think AR is very interesting as a concept, but I'm constantly disappointed by any demo trying to implement it in practice.
Seems we need way better sensors and a lot more image processing power before it becomes really usable in game development, more then just a fancy tech demo that is fun to play around with for a while until you get frustrated with it losing synch with the physical world all the time.

Yearly screenings very important
The Centers for Disease Control describe diabetes as a chronic disease caused from the body's inability to use the food we eat properly. Most food we eat is turned into the sugar, glucose. For our bodies to use that sugar it must enter the cell and insulin made by the pancreas works as a sort of taxi for glucose. In some people, insulin isn't produced in enough quantity or though there is enough, the body struggles to use the insulin it makes. With the sugar not able to enter the cell, it circulates in the bloodstream instead, causing elevated blood sugar.
The WHO describes how excess sugar in the bloodstream has ravaging effects on the body over time. High blood sugar levels are the leading cause of blindness and kidney failure. With nerve damage and impaired blood flow to other organs, people with diabetes suffer leg amputations from non-healing wounds and an increased risk of death from heart disease.
The American Diabetes Association cites that the costs of treating people diagnosed with diabetes were $245 billion in 2012 for the United States. Wouldn't our health dollar be better served by intervention? Screening for diabetes and creating a plan for better health before the catastrophic costs of treating the disease are evident, is in our best hope for more cost effective health care as well as a healthier nation.

The thing is, I would be doing this in Mexico. Every "like" adds a peso (about 10 cents of a dollar). Limit would be 150 likes, or $15. Starbucks was an example, I would focus in independent bars and coffee shops, which would be willing to pay 10 cents per like or max $15 total to have 150 people like their gift card which would give great exposure for that money.

Peter Ramsey Loves NPR
Originally published on Wed December 26, 2012 1:03 pm
Peter Ramsey has worked on a lot of films in his career, but after directing Rise of the Guardians, a holiday film out this season, he became the first African American to direct a big-budget, computer-generated (CG) animation film.
He told NPR Host Michel Martin, "It wasn't until my mom and dad read a newspaper article that mentioned that fact, like, a few months before we finished that I understood how much it meant to them. And then it brought it back to me. I stepped away from the work and thought about how I would have felt if I could have seen me making this movie back when I was a kid."
In the interview, which aired on Tell Me More, Ramsey also talked about the difference between directing live-action and CG movies and what it's like to work with Alec Baldwin.
On his way out, he gave us a big smile to show us some NPR love, and you better believe that's not CG.

Boxie ft. Juelz Santana - Let Me Show You
Artist: Boxie
Featuring: Juelz Santana
Producer: Mel & Mus [for Wallstreet Ent.]
Album: TBD
Avg Rating: 3.6 ( 37 votes )
While he might be inexperienced in the music game, Queens-bred artist Boxie seems awfully knowledgeable in the dating game. On his new single, Let Me Show You, the 18-year-old takes charge of his relationship and sounds extremely confident in his delivery of the message. Featuring fellow New Yorker Juelz Santana and the production of Wallstreet Entertainment duo Mel & Mus, Let Me Show You is a large step in the right direction for Boxie, who started his professional career with Murder, Inc. in 2005. Signed to Polo Grounds Records, the talented singer was featured on Hurricane Chris's Playa's Rock single and will also be featured on several songs off Ja Rule's long-awaited release of The Mirror.

1/7/2014 Update:
We are happy to announce that the winner of the Best Feature of 2013 is the Cannonball Run 1978 Jaguar XJS! The car was already on its way to a landslide victory over the Ferrari 330 in the run-off vote when the owner, Richard Rawlings of Gas Monkey Garage, broadcast his desire to win via his social media channels and put it even more over the top! It was a crazy couple of days, but we are glad that the win is both representative of the BaT community's appreciation for the story and the owner's personal efforts. We love that he found the car via BaT and are glad that it is promised to be restored.
Thanks again for all the voting, and for the passion everyone has displayed for the different cars and stories we featured last year. We are excited to bring more great stories in 2014!
1/4/2014 Update: For the first time in our five years of awarding a winner… we have a tie! We are not going to allow for co-champs…. so we hereby announce a run-off vote between the following two cars:
1. Bent But Complete: 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC Crash Victim
2. 32H:51M Record Holder: Cannonball Run Winning(?) 1978 Jaguar XJS
Please place your vote below for one of these two vehicles! The previous votes do not count. This new voting will be live for the next 48 hours, closing at 11pm PST on Monday January 6th!
From 1/2/2014:
Now it is time to have some fun! 2013 has been another great year of BaT feature cars. It is time, once again, to vote for your favorite!
The rules: Leave a comment with the link to your favorite BaT Feature car of 2013. Comments and votes without links will be deleted. Please no "I think I remember a fastback Mustang, or was it a notchback?" sort of comments. Be specific! Leave a reason or leave no reason at all. Vote for one car (or feature) and please just one vote per person.
Use the search bar on the right and the categories below to help you choose! Voting closes at 11PM PST on Saturday, January 4th!
See the 2009 winner and voter comments here:
The Bellytank Lakester
See the 2010 winner and voter comments here:
The Weslake V8 Healey
See the 2011 winner and voter comments here:
Had-the-Key-Already 1963 VW Beetle Convertible
See the 2012 winner and voter comments here:
Mr. Vespa's Alfa Romeo Sprint Speciale Saga
Despite what Richard says above about removing the link, it remains:
Nest year, votes should be limited to people who actually commented previously that year.
Had I known gmg was involved, I would have voted the other way ….
This win is as much for Brock as it is for the Jag!
@billy de hulst: Thanks for that about @espadaguy. I thought the same.
Like the Lance Pharmstrong Tours de France, this years winner should be stricken from the official record. Sure, Mr. Rawlings is contrite, but so is everyone else who ever played fast and loose when they get caught.
Gotta vote for the Jag. What could be more fascinating than going all out across the USA, in a V12 no less !
gas monkey all the way!
Cannonball Jaguar!
My folks had a 1954 Jaguar140 mc somethin'somethin' convertible.It was cool!! So anyway, love jags and beer and beer. I'd easily give you serious competition in the beer drinking department!!
1 Ferrari http://bringatrailer.com/2013/12/26/bent-but-complete-1967-ferrari-330-gtc-crash-victim/
When it's all said and done, it will always be a V12 Ferrari GT.
Has to be the Jag. Go Fast & Loud.
The Jag.
go Gas Monkey Garage
for the gmg
The Ferrari. I couldn't stop looking at it.
The Jag, because of the connection (or maybe lack of) to the Cannoball Baker Sea to Shining Sea Memorial Trophy Dash! I have one of the original patches sewn to my coveralls.
The Ferrari is my vote. Amazing in part because its not red!
While the Jag has an interesting 'is it real?" story, no doubt more timely since those yahoos just claimed 28h in their MB a few months ago, it's still just a question of background. The Ferrari offers not only a 'what the hell happened?" but also "where do you take it from here?" and a "what's it really worth, now or later?" storyline. If it was based on sheer amusement, I'd choose the Jag, but for most intriguing, I've got to give the nod to the Ferrari. Bent But Complete gets my vote.
Cannonball Jaguar.
Has to be the Jag!!
cannonball jaguar
I was at Bev Hills Car Club this week looking at a Giulia sedan and saw the 330 GTC in the flesh. I'd take it on as a project if I had a spare $300K around. I'll vote for it.
It went that far without a breakdown. Hopefully it will get a new life and get driven again. (LeMons anyone?)
the 330 "investment opportunity" is just not my idea of BAT…
but to each his own!
I finally read the entire blog on the JAG……….amazing, the people who showed up. That has to be my vote plus getting a JAG to go that far without a major breakdown is a feat in itself.
If any of the "regulars" are still around after the barrage of spam votes, I have a modest suggestion to amend Bob in Bexley's recommendation.
It would seem pretty easy to only allow votes from those who were registered users on BaT before the annual contest begins. In other words, one would have to be aware of BaT and part of the "community" before voting starts to have a vote counted.
I have been an occasional commenter (only when I feel I have something to contribute) for several years, but because of the holidays and family didn't get to the vote until after BaT declared a runoff. Then I reread every comment on both threads and made my choice from the two finalists, even though I much preferred the Healey with the Supra engine mod. Should I not be allowed to vote? Just sayin'.
i vote for the jag, thanks

You guys have been busy.
I am just glad I don't need to do the tally.
Go Jag!
over a thousand comments… WOOOOOOOOOO
Jaguar – any jag that can run for 32 hrs w/o a breakdown is a winner (and an anomoly).
the JAG!!!!!!!!
jag gets my vote
I read to the very end, great to see it confirmed as the real deal, and far cooler than another ultra-high-end car warped out of shape, even if it's 40-something years old.
It has to be the Cannonball Jag. I hadn't gone back to the post after the first couple of days, so I didn't know what had happened. Everything that makes BAT a most-favored time sink is right there.
(With honorable mention to Alain de Pusay, who inspected the flooded Ferrari)

Gas monkey garage
Read the Ferrari post real time and enjoyed the banter. Just finished the Jag read and enjoyed it even more. I mean c'mon….that record setting race and those involved commenting? Great read.
Jag you are.
I vote for the '78 Jag XJ-S because of its historical value – having set the record for the Cannonball run.
I'll vote for the jag only because it's not often the XJS can get some love.
The Jag!

Holy crap, is there even a question?? The Jag, everyday and twice on Sundays.
Jag all the way.
The Jaguar!
The Ferrari can get the prize for the highest dollar value of 'nominal value added' per flip, which was/is about $196,000 (98.5%) for doing nothing but changing sellers.
The Jag
This is a great idea for a great Cannon Ball rally car to be brought back to its rally condition.
The GTC.
A vote for the Jag and the boys at Fast & Loud! http://bringatrailer.com/2013/06/20/32h51m-record-holder-1978-jaguar-xjs-cannonball-run-winner/
1978 Jag!
The Ferrarri is a cool project and story for the big bucks crowd, but too common.
The Cannonball Jaguar is the kind of nutball project that only comes along once. It easily gets my vote!
I vote Jag!
Wow, I came to vote for the Ferrari and see that it doesn't have a chance with the GMG campaigning for their car. I'm not sure how this helps them in any way?
Oh well, maybe some new people were turned on to BAT through them.
My vote still goes to the Ferrari though.
"Let's take the Jag, honey."
jag for sure
Got to be the British classic cannonball winning XJS. http://bringatrailer.com/2013/06/20/32h51m-record-holder-1978-jaguar-xjs-cannonball-run-winner/
I vote jaaaaaag
Take this one!
Ferrari. Definitely.
It speaks of truth, not fiction……….AW
1978 Jaguar XJS
Cannonball Jag gets my vote!
Come on, it's a Cannonball winner
Love the Jag!!
Here's my vote no doubt about it mint balls
How rare is it to own a record setting cannon ball run car?
Very RARE!!! So vote for the Jag
My vote goes for the Jaguar, it'll be great to also see it fully restored, obviously , some one did not appreciate that car. Rock on Gasmonkey Garage
a crashed ferrari I don't even like for 400 zillion dollars, that is the winner in my book.
It has to be the jag for me.
I vote Jag. I would love to see the Jag restored to its former canon ball glory. Go GMG.
I vote for the Cannonball Jag!
Another vote for the jag
Defiantly the jag as it's a real classic :-)
The jag gets my vote as it's a solid piece of history and it's bad ass
I am going with the Jag, first winner and Richard saved it from being crushed!
I vote for the Cannonball Jaguar cause it's a part of the Cannonball history.
Poland love's Fast N' Loud ;)
I would like the jag its as old as me and in better shape lol 67
The XJS every time!
Jaguar, obviously,
Love all the Gas Monkeys
Go A@@ Monkeys! http://bringatrailer.com/2013/06/20/32h51m-record-holder-1978-jaguar-xjs-cannonball-run-winner/
Cannonball 1978 Jaguar XJS
Yo voto por el Jaguar,soy español,gran amante de los coches clasicos y de las motos,este coche acabo de la peor manera posible,abandonado al raso,esta vieja gloria hace que recuerdes las grandes marcas y modelos,como mi querida derbi que ya cerró,una lastima pero yo poseo una de las ultimas Derbis GPR una gran moto,como una gran marca española,pero siempre nacen nuevas glorias y con marca española como el GTA Spano,actualmente uno de los mejores superdeportivos del mundo creado por GTA motor en mi tierra valenciana de la mano de Domingo Ochoa.
Suerte y saludos desde España.
I'm going with the XJS…partially because of memories doing donuts in a drop top V12 XJS as a younger man, but mostly because it has an awesome back story, and the cannonball movies were always entertaining.
However…I still stand by my original choice of the Supra Powered 1956 Austin Healey 100-GT Coupe:
A real piece of automotive history, I vote for: http://bringatrailer.com/2013/06/20/32h51m-record-holder-1978-jaguar-xjs-cannonball-run-winner/
Add one more vote for the Jaguar.
The JAGUAR XJS…..this was a 'real world' winner. I wanted one, and brought one when I was 19 for just £2,300, wouldn't happen with a Ferrari. Keep it real, lets have the XJS!
The Jag… straight up. http://BRINGATRAILER.COM/2013/06/20/32H51M-RECORD-HOLDER-1978-JAGUAR-XJS-CANNONBALL-RUN-WINNER/
I vote for the Cannonball Jaguar!

Voting for the Jag.
The Jaguar of course
The Jaguar.
The jag!
Since neither one of these machines even warranted a hit on my radar initially, I will vote based on the following criteria; The Ferarri is pretentious and there are WAY too many of them on this site, whereas the Jaguar actually accomplished something of significance in motorsport history. Besides, it is a model that could be found by just about any of your viewers. JAG it is!
Cannonball Jag what a piece of history
Bring back the Jag. http://bringatrailer.com/2013/06/20/32h51m-record-holder-1978-jaguar-xjs-cannonball-run-winner/

JAG!!! http://bringatrailer.com/2013/06/20/32h51m-record-holder-1978-jaguar-xjs-cannonball-run-winner/
Have to go with Rawlings and GMG for the Jag resto. Not ponly is that a bad ass car, but seeing the GMG crew work on it will be great.
Get you some of that!

I don't know what the previously voted vehicles were, but between the two finalists my money's on the Jaguar. These old relics are a classic combo of performance and sofistication.
Cannonball Jag, no winner should be retired that way

You're asking us to choose between a Jag and a Ferrari? That's cruel!
O.K…. Jag.
The Jag is accomplished. Bring it back to life.
Great CannonBall fan and Gas Monkey fan as well. Go R!
Of course The Jaguar!
I vote for the Jag.
I vote Ferrari, because it represents many of the comments made on BAT
Definitely the Jag! FNL all the way.
I think this 1978 jaguar xjs cannonball run winner car should win this contest!!!
Cannonball jag all the way! :)
The Jag, bring some good old british style on the run
32H:51M Record Holder: Cannonball Run Winning 1978 Jaguar XJS
I vote for the Jag. The Cannonball story may perhaps be a fabrication and the car may be a basket case, but the story and the car are what dreams are made of and we all need dreams! Yes indeed, I vote for the Jag!
Funny how it turned into a landslide once the choices were narrowed down. And I'm all in on the bandwagon! Cannonball Jag!
Richard Rawlings, you make me cringe sometimes, but damn you have some charisma and a love of life and cars. I'll never forgive you for what you did to the F40. However, because a Ferrari HAS to be returned to factory condition with bottomless pockets behind it the 330 will fall to exactly the same fate being restored by a investor to an antiseptic better than new condition. The Jag, mongrel that it is, has a should and a history. Therefore, the Jag gets the vote.
The Ferrari. First time I've seen a crashed one for sale. It will make Joe's Crash Palace rich!
My vote is to the Cannonball Jaguar. Great story, and looking forward to the F&L episode(s) when Aaron gets his hands on this thing at Gas Monkey. Great rescue Richard and Dennis.
The Jag has an unique American history there for I vote for the Jag.
No doubt: the Jag
gotta be the jag… LOVEd the Alfa SS story in 2012, but this is a piece of history, not just a car!
I vote for the Jag
Gotta be the Jag. I read both threads this morning for the first time and it is no contest. The haters got beaten by the real people who took the time to chime in. What a wonderful thread!!
The Ferrari has me drooling but the Cannonball Jag is a way better story.
My vote goes to the Jaguar.
The Jag, indeed.
Well if I have to vote for one of these non-running basket cases I'll take the jag.
The Jag, of course! And Brock Jr. chimed in!
32H:51M Record Holder: Cannonball Run Winning(?) 1978 Jaguar XJS
Cannonball Jaguar has my vote!
The prancing horse with the broken legs… Ferrari.
Blimey Jaguar all the way!
Fast and Loud!
Gotta vote for the Jag. While the Ferrari is cool and even IF it could have been bought for cheap, it would be uber expensive to restore. Now the Jag on the other had could be bought for cheap(er) and cost wise would be reasonable to restore, and when you are done you have a legit (I think) piece of underground American lore!

It wins for this thread alone.
In the words of Carl Kearney Spackler CANNONBALL!
Got to be the Jag.
While the Ferrari is not a dime for a dozen, the story behind the car is and I like a story. I have to go for the Cannonball Jag.
The only Cannonball winning car to ever leave the original owners hands,it is confirmed that this tis the actual Jag and it is being restored by Gas Monkey Garage on Discovery Channels Fast N Loud for all the world to see,what an incredible find by BAT.Cannonball rocks!!! The Jag hands down it will live again and the Cannonball will never die. 31:59
Cannonball Jag.
Grace … space … pace — Jaguar!!!

The jaguar.
Easily wins, the back story alone makes it a winner!
Vote for the Jag
Go Gas Monkey's
Thanks Mr Yarborough ! I will call you this week.
Yes all vote for this Jag it is a special car and Dennis and I are proud to own it.
We are planning to restore this car on the show! I welcome any and all help , pictures etc… From all involved! There is also a very special part of that episode that I can't comment on yet. I got to see Mr Yates challenger the other day at Wayne's place and that was very cool!,
Tell you friends and family vote for the Jag!!!!,!
Gotta be 32H:51M Record Holder: Cannonball Run Winning(?) 1978 Jaguar XJS if for no other reason than the memories recalled by the Cannonball Run and Brock Yates.
I also vote for the Jag, love the provenance!
Th cannonball Jag gets my vote. Ferrari 330's are boring.
Another vote for the Jag
Jag. Has to be.
The Jag brings it strong. Winner!
While I'm a big fan of any V12 Ferrari the XJS gets it. For the fact that it looks like countless other old rust bucket pub-landlord yard finds but has apparently bona-fide Cannonball credentials!
My vote is also for the Jag.
Even Gas Monkey got in on it by purchasing it.
The Jag, unquestionably the best story.
The Jag, because the comments, and the question of provenance kept me coming back for days.
Cannonball Jag!!!!!!!!!!!
The Ferrari
This is getting tougher (!) every year, given the increasing volume and diversity of cars featured on BaT. For me though, the best car each year, almost by definition, has to be a race car.
So my choice this year, primarily by virtue of the mental picture I get of a competitor looking into his mirrors and seeing this machine bearding down on him at speed, would be the Red Lobster IMSA March 83G.
Huge thanks for this wonderful site, BaT. Long ago, I just checked it once or twice in 24 hours. Now, I think I must look at the cars and the comments at least a dozen times a day.
Happy New Year to you all!
More actual information in this thread than any other I read all year long.
So many great choices.
Voting is always tough, because it's who/what you leave OFF the list that's as telling as what you put on it.
But I'll jump in and go 100% with Irene on the Italia — feeling exactly as she described, that I should have sold something to make the funds and space available. A gorgeous piece that rarely comes by in this condition, one that would have absolutely been a keeper.
Then for sheer comedic/entertainment value, the 330 GTC wins hands down. Or hands up, actually, since anything more than haul-away fees is robbery. What a hoot that thread was. `
How about a separate vote/award based on the top ten cars of the past year that generated the most comments. Surely there are many interesting cars from early 2013 that people have forgotten…
I have spent most of my adult life earning my living as an auto mechanic. First on VWs then, as my palet matured, on Italian sports cars (mostly Fiat and Alfas). A family required me to actually earn a living, and I migrated to German gear, as the owners tend to be check writing mechanic types (a generality, yes. But from my experience a reality as well). This being said, my all time favorite cars are the pre-Fiat Lancias. Always innovative and beautiful, even the berlinas have… dignity. Many have been featured on BaT over the years, but 2013 twice featured my all time favorite car, the Aurelia B20GT. If I had infinitely deep pockets, this car would be mine!
If my bubble were a little more off plumb, I'd have this one:
The 1954 Corvette. I really liked the modifications that the builder made, and I would love to have the car in my garage:
Although you didn't ask, my vote for best comment is by HealeyRick on the Cal-Look Delete: Porsche-Swapped 1957 VW Beetle:
"I've handed my smartphone to my 14 month-old daughter and instructed her to bid high."
Honorable mention for best use of a bikini-clad model in the e-bay ad for the 1983 Divco milk truck. Even the lactose-intolerant were tempted to bid.
Still can't get these out of my mind…
One of the best things about the Flooded Ferrari thread was all the sacred cows who got massacreed…
One POSTER OF THE YEAR insisted that it had been repainted by Beverly Hills Car Club "oh, I KNOW PAINT!"…but it had not…
Another NOMINEE for POSTER OF THE YEAR adamantly argued that it had NOT been in a flood…
But a professional appraiser who had ACTUALLY SEEN THE CAR confirmed it most certainly HAD been in a flood…
I don't mind seeing some of the board doyennes get punctured now and then…keeps everybody humble.
That thread by far had the most interesting comments of any all year. AND…
The drama is still going on! Will it get $395,ooo? Or nothing? Will Ferrari 330s be worth $700000 in a year or two, or $300000?
And what the HELL was a Ferrari 330 doing in KENTUCKY anyway?
Simply gorgeous, 1961 Triumph Italia 2000 Coupe
First time commenting here. Turned onto your site by a friend of mine and lost in here ever since. Great work!
This is the story of the year…the real spirit of BAT. Kris is a real gentleman and returned his 2002 back to the source. Great video as well!
Honourable mention to Senna Footprint NSX as well…
1959 Devin/Renault Special Vintage Racer
Simple, Purposeful, Elegant
First choice, the Chaparral.
Second, Alfa T33 Stradale:
Third runner up- the BAT eBay Corvette split window
For the attraction and lust of a Ferrari,
For the gluttony and greed of the high asking price,
For the sloth of never repairing it,
For the envy if someone actually had it and you didn't,
For the pride and vanity of owning it,
For he wrath and anger you would incur from your wife if you paid the asking price,
The 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC.
There have been so many this year that make me rue that I don't have any kids to sell for medical experiments to get the cash to pay for them ! But if forced to choose just one, it would have to be… dammit dammit dammit ! The one that sticks in my head is from 2014 ! Now I'll have to go back and look…
Strictly because I have a major jones for the year and make, I'll go with the Black-plate '66 Chevrolet Nova in Sacramento.
Who knows what the year will bring, but it is off to a damn good start with the Tracked 1974 Steyr Puch 710M !
I would park it in my living room so that guests could see it ! No, I'd put it in my bedroom, toss a mattress in the back, and it would be where I slept !
What a challenge! So many great offerings – only one selection allowed. Well, it may sound weird, but since I first saw this beauty when I was 16 years old, I wanted one. They were not available in Germany. Even told my Mom I need to go to Brazil to get me one of these. They were much, much cheaper then. :D
Hau`oli makahiki hou!
(Happy New Year!)
I now refer to those green dots that appear when light shines in my eyes as Modop Oldsmobiles. Any car you can see with your eyes shut is a winner in my book. Epic!
1997 RUF CTR2 – The most fun 18 minute video I've watched
I still think the Mr Badger Delage was the best one ever. For this year the Ferrari flood car gets my vote.
I love the concept of this amazing looking car!! Great job MO! Pure genius! Good Luck! Let the Haters Hate..Jealously is an ugly thing!
My vote goes to the 1958 Renault 4CV. I especially like that it has the US high perfornace engine which upgrades the power to 28HP. That said it is still not as powerful as my 29HP Citroen 2CV!
I want this car to win just to see if the user who calls himself TJP explodes!!
TJP: "Ugh. BaT was my one refuge on the internet from stupid hipsters and SXSW related nonsense. So much for that I guess.
Maybe next we can get a Tumblr and an Instagram feed going so we can look at more generically filtered pictures of hipsters ironically buying old cars."
What is the best feature? Is it the one with the most comments? Is it the one that features the most expensive vehicle? I would argue that neither is true. Sure, a feature needs to draw significant comments, but not necessarily the most. Likewise, the best feature should not be so pricey that many of us could not afford it. The best feature also needs something that tugs at us and makes us remember why we love cars, especially classics, so much.
I nominate the 2 owner 1987 535is:
And the wonderful BaT Success Story follow-up:
The original feature drew 150 comments, while the follow-up garnered another 70. The initial listing offered a spirited discussion on rolled fenders, while the follow-up offered priceless details of a college visit providing cover for the car purchase, a 1200 mile father/son road trip, and that the son learned to drive a manual transmission. In my opinion, that's what made this 535is the best feature this year.
The whole story about the listing, sale, and transfer of this 1957 MGA to me was the best of the year, and characterizes the best of BaT:
Head Scratcher: Supra Powered 1956 Austin Healey 100-GT Coupe!!
What an awesome project! This guy looks like he has a whole lot in common with quite a few folks on this board…even though the purists may not appreciate it as much. He took a cool idea, turned it into reality, and showed quite a bit of ingenuity along the way.
Plus, who can argue with Chrysler Town and Country steelies?!
Oh, hey, and he drove it to Bonneville…from Minnesota, right? That's a hell of an adventure in a hell of a car. Truly inspiring!
The comments went on and on regarding whether this XJS was the real Cannonball Run Winner… and if it was, is it really that significant? The beat goes on
My vote: NW Classic Rally 2013 Report: Stages and Sparks" article published July 7, 2013. Great article.
Here is the link:
So many interesting vehicles in the course of a year on this site, so a little hard to pick. However memories and prejudiced attitudes can come through. Have been an Audi fan for a long time and when I lived in Germany my best friend had a four door version of this era car. That little Audi just screamed up and down the Autobahn. Two thumbs up for this one.
and I just realized that the Obsession 308 was posted in 2012, oh well it was still cool!
My vote is for the 1979 Ferrari 308 GTB Obsession. The documentation and passion displayed by the owner really reminded me of why I'm a gearhead.
Birth of a Legend: 1961 Chaprarral 1 No. 003
There are so few of the iconic racers to be had. Thanks for shining the light on the Chaparral. Next time hit spell check.
You guys said it best, "crazy, completely over-the-top, way-too-much-power restomod build, but somehow manages to remain subtle".
In honor of my wife, I nominate the story of the "Willis Special:"
In honor of my wife, I nominate the story of my purchase of the "Willis Special" from last January:
Flooded, wrecked Ferrari 330. No doubt.
Gotta be the Chaparral I…history on wheels…
Best combat Porsche. This is the one where after seeing the post, I found myself researching the car for hours.
The '58 Packard Wagon! This beauty of a car makes full sense when thought of as the earliest harbinger of the decline in American corporate thinking and deisgn of the next 25 years.
I'm voting for EBAY PROJECT CORVETTE, as I got to see the WHOLE thing from start to finish.
You never know what others did NOT show–on purpose. LOL!
I also vote for the VW Schwimmwagen.
The 1956 Fiat 1100 Sport TV Boano Giannini just because it had the longest name of any car featured.
In all seriousness, this is a (1 of 4) super rare find that was brought to us as a BaT exclusive and sold within 48 hours. To me, this is what BaT is all about on so many levels.
For me it's the 1962 Kellison roadster. It is a completely unique and rare racecar with a great history.
The "Amazing: 1980 Ferrari 308 GTB Group 4 Tribute" took me on a deafening, sideways ride back into the Glory Days of Group 4!
The Alitalia livery was spot on, for the era, if not this particular car and brought back wonderful memories of Fiat/Alitalia's run at rallying in the U.S.A.
Most of all, perhaps, this ad linked to the car's builder, Mäkelä Auto-Tuning in Kannus, Finland, which is chock-full of many other drool-worthy historic and classic restos and tributes!

I have to second Bobbo's vote. The ongoing comments and updates on the Corvette coupe were interesting and even inspirational and even motivational. Got me looking for a similar project Corvette.
I am voting for the 1956 Pontiac. It was the first car I ever rode in and this example was an all original example – drivable original in fantastic shape.http://bringatrailer.com/2013/05/31/bat-exclusive-original-paint-1956-pontiac-chieftain-2-door/
My favorites were the ongoing status reports and completion of the 1963 Corvette!
Still kicking myself for not buying the coolest Volvo I've ever seen.

So this here is the victory lap
Then I'm leavin', that's how you get me back
from Jay Z – Encore Lyrics on Genius
The victory lap is a term used in races that indicates the last lap of a race in which the first one has a big lead and receives the cheers of the crowd while he drives around. In the following lines, Jay explains how to get him to start rapping again; with hindsight we know Jay Z would come back on his own.
Also, the way Jay pronouncing the word "leaving" is a shout-out to John Denver's famous song "Leaving on a Jet Plane"
