posted 6 years ago
We have a small shed in our yard and we installed this in the door so our TNR cats can have access to food, water and shelter. My husband said it was easy to install and so far it's held up well. I have no reservations about the product.
Pros: Helps out our ferals
Cons: None

i don't have cats that go outdoors but this is good for cats that can go outside, that way they can come back in to be safe or when the weather is bad.
Pros: good for access in and out of the house
Cons: can create a draft on a windy day

These 12 Recipes Will Make an Unholy Mess in Your Oven (But They're Worth It)
Recipes from The Kitchn
Today is Day 7 of our Kitchn Cure, the yearly event when we roll up our sleeves and clean our kitchens from top to bottom; and on Day 7, you clean your oven.
But we had a thought. It's summertime. Who's been using their ovens? Not I. I bet your oven is gleaming and clean. So why not muss it up a bit? In the spirit of the well-used kitchen, the one that needs some elbow grease after all, let's make some recipes that really frack up the oven. Roast chicken, bacon-wrapped potato bites, blueberry pie, and all. Because you know what? All of these wonderful comfort foods make cleaning your oven worth the effort. They're awfully delicious — and terrible for your oven.
Recipe: Southwestern-Spiced Pork Tenderloin
Weeknight Dinner Recipes from The Kitchn
This is one of my absolute favorite "make it once, eat it all week" recipes. Dinner is tender, spice-rubbed pork medallions with some quick-sautéed veggies on the side, and the leftovers become pork sandwiches all week long. And not just any pork sandwiches, but the best pork sandwiches — this thinly sliced pork is light-years beyond anything you'll find at the deli counter.
Need any more convincing? How about the fact that this roasted pork is ready in about 30 minutes flat, which is just enough time to cook a pot of rice and set the table for dinner.
Cooking Okra Without the Slime
Tips from The Kitchn
Okra is one of South Carolina's greatest crops, but I hear you. It's slimy. Even the most adventuresome eaters can have a few texture issues, and okra is guilty of having one heck of a gross texture. Though I like it just about any way — stewed with tomatoes, in gumbo, breaded and fried — I get it. I want my children to love it, if only because it's cheap and plentiful in the summer. The way I make it? They eat it like french fries.
Recipe: Grilled Zucchini Boats with Beef & Cheddar
Recipes from The Kitchn
Whether they come from your grocery store, your garden, or your neighbor's garden (if you're lucky!), you will soon be overrun with zucchini. This time of year, zucchini are plentiful and that's probably an understatement.
These easy grilled zucchini boats stuffed with ground beef, cheddar cheese, and salsa are one of my favorite ways to burn through a big pile of summer zucchini.
Recipe: Grilled Okra with Spicy Chipotle Dipping Sauce
Recipes from The Kitchn
This recipe is about trust. Because I know okra can be a tough sell. I get it. And I'm not going to tell you that these grilled okra spears taste like French fries or anything else — they taste like okra. Which I happen to love.
I love their earthy and undeniably green flavor. I love the charred bits that get crispy on the grill (which are, admittedly, rather fry-like). I love the way the seeds pop between my teeth. This is the recipe that made fall in love with okra. Trust me on this one.
Recipe: Roasted Shrimp Scampi
Recipes from The Kitchn
My favorite recipes are the ones I call fancy-not-fancy. A little luxurious, but so quick and easy they might actually qualify as 15-minute meals. Roasted shrimp scampi is the perfect example of fancy-not-fancy — ultra quick, and ridiculously good, with broiled shrimp swimming in garlicky white wine and butter, with parsley and flecks of red pepper.
Recipe: Mustard-Glazed Salmon
Weeknight Dinner Recipes from The Kitchn
When I started planning the menu for the afternoon baby shower I hosted for our latest Gatherings from The Kitchn, I knew I wanted to serve salmon. High in omega-3 fats and low in mercury, salmon is a great choice for pregnant women who are confused about which fish they can and should be eating.
But this recipe isn't just for pregnant women, of course. On a bed of crisp greens, alongside cold roasted asparagus, a piece of this mustard-brushed salmon is terribly elegant. It's also just as good cold as it is hot, making it an easy option for a picnic or a warm-weather dinner.
Recipe: Roasted Scallion & Snap Pea Spring Rolls with Tahini Sauce
Recipes from The Kitchn
People close to me know I have a small soapbox I keep (figuratively) tucked away for times when I hear someone say, "Oh, I've wanted to make that recipe but it looks hard." I then launch into a five minute diatribe on why it's not and how to tackle it, with enough enthusiasm to convince that person it's actually quite easy. Spring rolls are one such "hard" item I've convinced numerous people to make — and enjoy!
How To Cook Asparagus in the Oven
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
We can't get enough of asparagus this time of year. Did you know that asparagus grows 6 to 10 inches a day during peak growing season?
We've been eating asparagus every which way — sautéed, blanched, even raw. But one of our favorite easy ways to prepare asparagus is to roast it in the oven. This is so easy; here's how to do it.
Recipe: Beef Tenderloin Sliders with Horseradish Sauce
Recipes from The Kitchn
A perfectly cooked beef tenderloin is truly a sight to behold. The delectable cut often made special occasion appearances when I was growing up, but Easter Sunday and its rosy-hued tenderloin tea sandwiches was always a holiday favorite.

All proceeds benefit the Emmaus Women's Shelter, which provides refuge and restoration for homeless women and their families.
David said the event will provide a way for all age groups to contribute to worthy cause.

US ambassador frustrated over Russian boy's death
Max's adoptive mother, Laura Shatto, told authorities earlier this week that Max and his half-brother were playing outside the family's home near Odessa, Texas. Shatto said she came out and found the boy unconscious on the ground.
Shirley Standefer, chief investigator for the Ector County Medical Examiner's Office, said that there were signs of bruising on Max's lower abdominal area, but added that a full autopsy would be needed to determine what kind of bruising that was. Authorities also have not received a toxicology report that would have details on whether Max was being given any medication.
The Texas Child Protective Services spokesman said that they had received allegations of physical abuse and neglect, but had not determined whether those allegations were true.

If you ever doubted Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards animosity was real — you need to watch their insane fight over Faye Resnick!
Either these two Real Housewives are Oscar worthy actresses, or there really is no love lost between them — but, you can watch the video right here on RadarOnline.com and judge for yourself!
PHOTOS: Real Housewives Show Off Their Hot Bikini Bodies!
Their crazy catfight was caught on camera during taping of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion show at the end of the explosive season three — and it appears their ongoing feud has gone nuclear!
It all starts with host Andy Cohen reading out a question to Richards from a Housewives fan: "Kyle sat on the fence during all the drama but it always seemed like your friend Faye had plenty to say – is Faye on your payroll — is she a friend, or some one who invoices you?"
PHOTOS: The 10 Most Boobiful Real Housewives!
And, let the fireworks begin!
Richards starts off calmly enough: "She is not on my payroll – oh, well, she designed my home, but no, she is not on my payroll…."
But, before she can finish Vanderpump jumps in: "Oh come on! She works for you!" She exclaims in disbelief.
PHOTOS: Reality TV's Hottest Stars
Then, as Kyle tries to deny the accusation, the action really ramps up!
Vanderpump tears into Richards accusing her of using Resnick as her mouthpiece for attacks against her and against Brandi Glanvile — and slams Faye, claiming, "[She's] so desperate for camera time, that she will go after anything just to make her big mark!"
PHOTOS: The Real Houswives Of Beverly Hills In Hawaii
"May God strike me dead if I am lying," Kyle angrily retaliates, "I did NOT EVER ask Faye to to say one thing to Brandi!"
Then Richards makes a very good point, "I NEVER in my life needed a mouth piece and I certainly don't need one now!" She fumes.
But none of the ladies will back down — and when Brandi and Yolanda Foster start weighing in too, it all starts going to hell in a (Chanel) handbag!
Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Stars Finally Sign Contracts! Who's In And Who's Out?
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Vanderpump is apparently way off the mark with her fame hungry accusations against Resnick!
In fact, the successful designer is quitting the reality show, as she is sick of the drama and has claimed it is ruining her life!
"Faye is a tough cookie, so for her to say that things have become so bad that she is finished with the show, is a big development," a source previously told Radar. "She's a very successful interior designer and being on the show is just bad for business — not to mention the fact that Faye says it is ruining her life.
PHOTOS: Lisa Vanderpump Goes Retro Eighties For DWTS Rehearsal
"Faye was being courted to replace Adrienne Maloof next season. Lisa and Brandi need someone to fight and spar with now that Adrienne is gone. Producers are extremely disappointed Faye won't be back next season because the drama is ratings gold — but, quite frankly, it just isn't worth it for her to be on the show."
VIDEO: 9021-Outrageous Overload! Brandi Glanville Dishes On Bisexuality, Calls Fellow Housewives The 'C-Word'
Meanwhile, Resnick's decision to quit the Real Housewives is bound to cause yet more headaches for show producers, who, as previously reported, are already struggling to attract new talent to appear on the televised bitchfest.
"Several women who have been approached have turned Bravo down because they don't want to become the latest target for all the bitchiness!" a source said.

Guest blog by Nancy Perry, Senior Vice President of ASPCA Government Relations
*Updated 11:00 A.M. Wednesday, January 29*
After months of negotiations, the U.S. House Representatives voted Wednesday to pass the Farm Bill—legislation to set policy for many federal agriculture programs. Thanks to all who lobbied Congress with us, animals can claim important victories on two fronts in this legislation. First, the Farm Bill contains a provision to crack down on animal fighting: gruesome spectacles where gamblers wager on animals who are forced to fight to the death. Second, this legislation protects the integrity of hundreds of state animal protection laws across the country from the grievous threat of the King Amendment. The ASPCA applauds Congress for advancing its crackdown on animal fighters while handing a defeat to animal abusers in the Farm Bill.
The animal fighting language in the Farm Bill establishes the first-ever federal penalties for attending an animal fight and criminalizes bringing a child to one of these heinous events. Reflecting the language of the Animal Fighting Spectator Act (H.R 366 / S. 666), this provision creates liability for the individuals whose illegal wagers and admission fees fuel this cruelty. It also ensures that organizers cannot easily escape prosecution by hiding in the crowd when law enforcement arrives, since now everyone in the crowd will be breaking the law.
The King Amendment, named after its sponsor, Rep. Steve King (R-IA), was an incredible federal power-grab that could have prevented states from enacting many of their own laws regarding the production of any "agricultural products"—a term so broad that it can include farm animals, dogs in puppy mills, and even locally grown fruits and vegetables. The defeat of the King Amendment preserves the historic power of states to pass laws that protect the health and welfare of animals.
After today's vote in the House, the Farm Bill is headed to the Senate for consideration and passage.
The ASPCA Government Relations team has made passage of the Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act and defeat of the King Amendment top priorities this Congress. We couldn't have achieved these victories without the members of our Advocacy Brigade, who sent thousands of emails to their Members of Congress about the animal fighting bill and the King Amendment.
Join the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade!
By joining the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade, you will receive important alerts from us when we need your help to fight for laws against animal cruelty.
good work, but it takes every one to step up to stop it. with a very aggressive intervention we have made clear this will not continue without consequence. peace, through superior power.
Is this true, as reported on CNN?
"A bipartisan deal on a new farm bill reached earlier this week could trim $90 a month in benefits for 850,000 food stamp recipients, saving the government nearly $1 billion a year."
I applaud the victories for animals, but if Congress is bundling this with defeats for humans, what should we do? And that's not a rhetorical question!
Yay! I am so happy. I am always upset and in tears when I think about the horrific stuff people do to these animals. I still think they deserve what they do the dogs if not worse.
Don't give up yet. This bill could be changed very easily in the Senate and all the things you didn't want could be back in.
Certainly overdue, and I agree wholeheartedly that the USDA has never done enough to regulate puppy mills. These cruel factories of greed should be outlawed completely. And where is the USDA when it comes to factory farming?! It's still going on, in this so- called civilized country of ours.
I am truly thankful for the people who fight for laws to protect animals rights. This is the right and good and moral thing to do. This fight, though is never ending. Keeping caring people informed is so important . Once again many thanks.
Yes this is long over due, but it doesn't go far enough. But I know baby steps. And to Cynthia S., you can't teach people like Michael Vick to love and respect dogs in prison. It's something they either feel or they don't. It's just that simple. And he probably will never understand that pitbulls are not to wager money on. They are put on this earth to love, cherish and respect the same way we want to be treated. But like I said, he'll never really get that! Sad, huh?
I am overjoyed with this good news! Thank everyone for all the hard work to help these poor animals.! I hope Rep Steve King rots in hell. He is a heartless and greedy soul. He cares nothing for the animals suffering and his only goal is to help his own state profit. Thank you ASPCA for all you do.
Lots of hard work, congrats! It's the year of the horse. Let's everyone keep on fighting and writing to get horse slaughter stopped period. Owners who share a partnership with their horses, have a bond just like owners of dogs and cats. Horses provide people with great joy, loyalty and service. They deserve to be treated with respect and compassion at end of life, not pain, suffering and terror.
Bless you all for our hard work in striving to maintain animal rights and protection. Thank you.

Angel Schlesser Homme by Angel Schlesser
Thumbs way up. I just bought this in London - I was going to pick one cologne that is not available in the US. After trying almost every new fragrance out there, and realizing that almost everything smells the same, this is the one that stuck out from the crowd. Imagine what you'd get if you combined Acqua di Gio with Ted Baker's Skinwear. Very strong scent of pine first, followed by a classy dry down of violet and maybe cedar. Starts with a sudden fresh burst, and stays with a woody, violet finish. Been smelling myself all day since I started to wear it. Can't stand those vanilla-based scents and this is the antithesis to them - fresh, but not in a tired "cool water" way. A Plus!!

Former LSJ columnist John Schneider reflects on his novel in progress
By Current State
For 24 years, John Schneider's column was a "destination read" in the Lansing State Journal. Schneider retired from the paper just over a year ago to free up more time for fishing and meandering in the woods...but it's been a thoroughly modern retirement. It's continued to include a blog, a regular column with Bridge magazine and -- Current State has learned -- a periodic return to the Lansing State Journal.

Sharp 1804 JR-2 14 Stars Dime, XF Details1804 10C 14 Stars on Reverse--Repaired, Whizzed--NCS. XF Details. JR-2, R.5. The 14 Stars reverse die was used for both dimes and quarter eagles in 1804. Only about 40 to 50 dimes of this variety survive, along with a similar quantity of the 13 Stars reverse variety. Demand for these coins in all grades is considerable. As a date, 1804 is especially rare in higher grades, and presently there are no Mint State pieces known. Only a few XF and AU grade coins exist, while the majority of pieces survive in low grades, typically VG or lower.
This example is sharply detailed, at least XF, but has dull and rough surfaces. It was probably buried for a long period of time. The centers are pewter-gray, with peripheral brown patina. Improperly cleaned at some time, although probably not whizzed as suggested by NCS.(Registry values: P8) (PCGS# 4475)

Happy birthday Wyatt!!! Wow...a year old... This time least year I was getting ready for the hospital, making sure I had all my bags packed (pretty sure I had way over packed haha). I had no idea what was in store, scared and excited. I knew no matter went happened year God would hold my hand through it. My life was about to change in 4 hours and I still had no answers on how it would all end up. They had been telling us from the beginning of finding everything out that we should just say good bye now.... We knew we couldn't do that. Wyatt was ours, be long time or short. As we get started at the hospital, our family and friends start arriving to support us. We are so grateful to have everyone around us that day, we are forever appreciative. When it came time, they took us back. I think I was more scared for the epidural then being cut open haha. When they showed him to me over the curtain, a little after 10 am, he took my breath away and yes then I started crying haha. Aaron went away with him and came back with one of the nurses, they said he wasn't breathing on his own and they had to help him, and we only had a few hours with him.I remember being wheeled back to our room, thinking three hours...what do I do, what do I say, what is really about to happen. I think is about when it hit me that we have a baby and I love him and no matter what happens that would never change. He's my baby. The bond Wyatt and Destiny created that day, will never be broken. There is so much love for each other its unmistakable. Bringing him home from the hospital was the best ever!! Having all of my family under one roof and most of all no more hospitals, which also means no more nurses LOL, first night was definitely a first night haha. God has just continued to bless us and show us what a fighter Wyatt is and how He will use him for His glory. Wyatt is now a year old and he can say momma, Dada, dessy, sissy, and Nana. He talks all the time making all sorts of noise LOL. He can crawl, stands, has taken 4 steps unassisted, eat on his own and has figured out how to let the puppy out of the kennel! He truly is a miracle and I just feel so blessed God gave me a chance to be his mommy. God is so good and amazing. Wyatt is going to continue show the world God's amazing love. We are so blessed to have him and watching him grow over this past year has been just a crazy ride of adventures that I wouldn't trade for anything. I'm so thankful that we only had one shunt revision and here's to none next year!! Praise God!! We love you so much Wyatt, Happy First Birthday!!

Re: Geale will beat Golovkin
well thats what the IBF are doing letting Geale fight Mundine before his mandate fight with Soliman (December
, for what reason, because Mundine fight makes more money (did not see that it rules). Whole thing is a rip off.

That's applying a different set of rules to Geale than they applied to Sturm.
As for Geale "knowing" that he had to fight Golovkin if he won, that's disputed by the Geale camp who claim that the WBA's directive came after contracts to fight Sturm had been signed.
And if you still don't think the WBA is a joke, perhaps you could ask them to actually send Geale a belt before they attempt to strip him of it. Not sending Geale a belt for the sake of saving themselves a few bucks is a disgrace by anyone's standards.

About Stony Brook
The Seawolves' baseball program has only been competing at the Division I level since 2000 but has had just one losing season during that span, that coming in 2005 (23-28). Coach Matt Senk led Stony Brook to an America East Conference title and an NCAA Tournament berth in 2004. The club has struggled offensively in its winless start to the 2006 season. In 10 games, the Seawolves are hitting just .228 as a team and have been shut out four times. As A Matter Of Fact: Minnesota Twins closer Joe Nathan played at Stony Brook in the early 1990s and is a 1995 graduate of the school. During his collegiate career, Nathan saw most of his action at shortstop with only an occasional appearance on the mound. Nathan was named an AL All-Star with the Twins in 2004 and 2005, recording over 40 saves in each of those seasons.
Players To Watch
 Isidro Fortuna, OF - A .321 career hitter in 123 games entering this season, Fortuna leads the Seawolves with a .342 batting average. He was an All-Amercian East Conference choice last season after hitting .357 with a team-high 37 RBIs.
 Andres Perez, OF - Perez is hitting .310 with a homer and two RBIs. His 13 hits is tied for the team lead.
Probable Pitching Rotation
Kris Bakey, RHP - Bakey is 0-2 in three starts and has allowed 19 hits in 13 innings. He sports a 6.23 ERA.
Tom Koehler, RHP - Koehler has made three appearances but just one start. He is 0-1 with a 5.87 ERA.
Matt Restivo, LHP - Restivo has yet to earn a decision but has solid numbers. In three starts, he's pitched 16 innings and recorded 15 Ks. He has a 1.69 ERA.
Aluminum Assault
Frank Anderson has called his 2006 squad the best offensive team he's had since arriving in Stillwater in 2004, and the Cowboys are proving their head coach prophetic.
OSU leads the Big 12 Conference with a .347 batting average and has three players  Corey Brown, Shelby Ford and Deik Scram  who rank in the top 10 in the league in batting average.
The Cowboys have scored 151 runs in 16 games and have collected 208 hits  averages of 9.4 runs and 13 hits per game. The Cowboys have scored 10 or more runs nine times and have had eight games where they racked up at least 16 hits, including three contests in which they topped the 20-hit mark.
Seven Cowboy regulars are hitting over .300, with three of those topping the .400 mark.
Take Note: OSU is outscoring its opponents 90-29 in the first four innings of games.

The way weapons work, and there is some oddities to the system, but in the most basic terms:
First weapon fires at full power.
Second weapon fires at full power and applies its drain
Third weapon fires at the reduced power and drains
And so on
So even if you've got a lot of weapons firing at once and add one more, it's not taking power away from the rest, it's just firing at reduced power. More guns firing is better, it's just that each one is less better than the one before it.

Timeliness of contact tracing among flight passengers for influenza A/H1N1 2009
1 Preparedness and Response Unit, Centre for Infectious Disease Control, National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), A. van Leeuwenhoeklaan 9, 3721 MA Bilthoven, the Netherlands
2 Municipal Health Service, GGD Kennemerland, Spaarnepoort 5, 2134 TM Hoofddorp, the Netherlands
3 Julius Centre for Health Sciences & Primary Care, University Medical Centre Utrecht, Heidelberglaan 100, 3584 CX Utrecht, the Netherlands
4 Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit; Centre for Infectious Disease Control, National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), A. van Leeuwenhoeklaan 9, 3721 MA Bilthoven, the Netherlands
BMC Infectious Diseases 2011, 11:355 doi:10.1186/1471-2334-11-355Published: 28 December 2011
During the initial containment phase of influenza A/H1N1 2009, close contacts of cases were traced to provide antiviral prophylaxis within 48 h after exposure and to alert them on signs of disease for early diagnosis and treatment. Passengers seated on the same row, two rows in front or behind a patient infectious for influenza, during a flight of ≥ 4 h were considered close contacts. This study evaluates the timeliness of flight-contact tracing (CT) as performed following national and international CT requests addressed to the Center of Infectious Disease Control (CIb/RIVM), and implemented by the Municipal Health Services of Schiphol Airport.
Elapsed days between date of flight arrival and the date passenger lists became available (contact details identified - CI) was used as proxy for timeliness of CT. In a retrospective study, dates of flight arrival, onset of illness, laboratory diagnosis, CT request and identification of contacts details through passenger lists, following CT requests to the RIVM for flights landed at Schiphol Airport were collected and analyzed.
24 requests for CT were identified. Three of these were declined as over 4 days had elapsed since flight arrival. In 17 out of 21 requests, contact details were obtained within 7 days after arrival (81%). The average delay between arrival and CI was 3,9 days (range 2-7), mainly caused by delay in diagnosis of the index patient after arrival (2,6 days). In four flights (19%), contacts were not identified or only after > 7 days. CI involving Dutch airlines was faster than non-Dutch airlines (P < 0,05). Passenger locator cards did not improve timeliness of CI. In only three flights contact details were identified within 2 days after arrival.
CT for influenza A/H1N1 2009 among flight passengers was not successful for timely provision of prophylaxis. CT had little additional value for alerting passengers for disease symptoms, as this information already was provided during and after the flight. Public health authorities should take into account patient delays in seeking medical advise and laboratory confirmation in relation to maximum time to provide postexposure prophylaxis when deciding to install contact tracing measures. International standardization of CT guidelines is recommended.

Dixon is a city in northern Solano County, California, United States, located 23 miles (37 km) from the state capital, Sacramento. The population was 18,351 at the 2010 census. Other nearby cities include Vacaville, Winters and Davis.
The first semi-permanent European settlement in the (now) Dixon area developed during the California Gold Rush of the mid 19th century. In 1852, the community of Silveyville was founded as a half-way point for lodging and relaxation between the Pacific Coast and the rich gold fields of Sacramento—on a route commonly traveled by miners. By the time the Vaca Valley railroad was to inaugurate its Solano County extension in 1870, local leaders decided to physically relocate their growing community closer to the tracks (a few miles away) in order to enjoy the benefits of commerce and travel. One of the first buildings that still stands in Dixon from the 1871 move is the Dixon Methodist Church located at 209 N. Jefferson Street.[9]
Originally, the city was named "Dicksonville" after Thomas Dickson who at the time donated 10 acres of his land for the construction of a railroad depot following the completion of the tracks and relocation of Silveyville to the now-Dixon area. However, when the first rail shipment of merchandise arrived from San Francisco in 1872, it was mistakenly addressed to "Dixon"—a name that has been used since, mainly out of simplicity.[9] Up to now, the urban landscape of the town can be seen to have developed in an outward trajectory from the railroad tracks although trains no longer stop in Dixon.
Dixon is also the home of the Gymboree Corporation's only Distribution Center, servicing all stores and customers around the world.
Dixon is located at 38°26′57″N 121°49′37″W / 38.44917°N 121.82694°W (38.449108, -121.826872).[10]

Archive for the 'Ford Falcon' tag
Falcon, Falcon, Falcon, Falcon, Falcon, Falc…
I was all set to repost this photo of a truckload of Falcons for our resident Falcon-spotter, Art Fink, but he already saw it and sent it along over the weekend. Still worth posting anyway. Photo courtesy Jim and Chester's Garage. Could somebody familiar with auto transporting tell us if there's a reason all the four-doors are on the top level and the two-doors on the bottom, or if that's just coincidence?

Australian couple ordered to repay $108,000 for selling fake Ford Falcon XW GT

Note to sellers of cloned collector cars: Not only do you have to worry about facing criminal charges for misrepresenting a cloned car, but there's also the very real possibility of having to answer to a civil lawsuit should you get caught. And if you lose, as in the recent case of an Australian couple sued for selling a faked car, you may even have to refund the difference between a real and fake car to the unlucky buyer.
Late last year, Judge Clive Wall in the District Court in Southport, Queensland, ordered Joanne and Geoff De Rome of Gold Coast to pay AUS $108,394.04 (about U.S. $107,200) to Daniel Sammut, a Sydney-based graphic designer who bought (what was advertised as) a 1969 Ford Falcon XW GT from the De Romes. According to the lawsuit that Sammut brought against the couple, they had bought the car in July 2006 for $18,000, then in the fall of 2007 advertised it for sale as a matching numbers all-original Falcon XW GT for $143,000. Sammut answered the ad, flew to inspect the Falcon in person (twice, the second time with his paint and body guy to inspect the car for rust), and checked the Falcon's VIN against Ford of Australia's records to make sure it was a legitimate car. Once the VIN checked out, he negotiated a sale price of $90,000 with the De Romes in October of that year and trailered it back to Sydney.
Built in 1969 and 1970, the Falcon XW remained based on the U.S. Ford Falcon, but had been extensively re-engineered for Australia and New Zealand. Base versions could be had with six-cylinders or 302-cu.in. V-8s, while the high-performance GT version added racing stripes, an offset hood scoop and a 291hp 351 Windsor V-8. Of the more than 105,000 XW Falcons that Ford built, 2,287 were GTs, and it was the GT that enjoyed rising prices among Australian collector car enthusiasts in the pre-recession 2000s.
Two years later, when Sammut attempted to sell the car, it came to light that the Falcon was not an authentic GT. Instead, somebody had taken a non-GT 1970 Falcon XW and replaced its firewall-mounted VIN with one from a 1969 Falcon XW GT (JG33JC37792); a later X-ray examination of the firewall showed that the area around the VIN tag had been cut and welded back together. Who exactly performed the cloning work remains undetermined; the De Romes claimed they did nothing to the car while they owned it save for an engine rebuild and camshaft replacement. According to expert testimony given to the court, a non-GT Falcon XW is worth between AUS $10,000 and AUS $15,000, compared to the current value of a Falcon XW GT, about AUS $65,000 to AUS $70,000.
Sammut, who apparently was unable to sell the Falcon or bought it back when it was revealed to be a fake, held on to the car and sued the De Romes for breach of contract, asking for the difference in value between what he paid for the car and its current value. Adding in the expenses he incurred traveling to see the car and towing it to Sydney as well as interest on the amount for those two years and court costs totaled AUS $108,394.04. The De Romes – who the judge determined likely didn't know the car was a clone – appealed the ruling, but abruptly withdrew that appeal late last week.
It's believed the De Romes have less than a month to file civil suit against previous owners of the Falcon for misrepresenting it to them before the statute of limitations runs out.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1964 Ford Falcon Deluxe station wagon
Yes, this 1964 Ford Falcon Deluxe station wagon for sale on Hemmings.com has been restomodded. No, it hasn't been sliced and diced, and if one really wanted, it appears they could easily return it to stock form. That said, The Torq-Thrusts look good against the bronze paint, and the 302 install looks fairly sanitary, and it all contributes to the beach-bum vibe going on here. From the seller's description:
When I purchased this car it had a straight six 200ci with the automatic Ford-O-Matic transmission. I replaced that with a crate 347 Stroker with an Edelbrock intake with twin 500cfm Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors. After a bit of research, I discovered that this car is an ORIGINAL V-8 car! The 5th digit in the VIN represents the type of engine the car was built with. In this case the fifth digit of the VIN is an "F" which means that this car rolled out of the factory with a 260 V-8 with a 2-bbl carburetor! I had no idea. When I bought the car, it had a straight-six 200, so I assumed the motor was original to the car. Apparently the original owner yanked out the 260 V-8 and replaced it with a 200 straight-six. Good to know. Everything under the hood is new…everything…from the oil pan to the twin air cleaners and from the electric-fan-assisted three row radiator to the master cylinder and everything in between. The odometer on the car reads 65,098, although the car/motor has only 1,200-1,500 miles on it since the restoration. The entire front end (steering and brakes) was professionally re-done…NOT with old Granada or Monarch parts…but with NEW Summit or Mustangs Unlimited parts/kits.
As a result of the new front-end, this car drives (and brakes) like a new car! With what is under the hood, this car can hold its own against anything on the road. It has a really nice, throaty sound when idling. I have driven this car on the highway at 70 MPH, with one finger on the wheel, and it drives straight as an arrow and runs ice-cold…thanks to the 3-row radiator and electric fan. The paint is the correct Ford Prairie Bronze, which was quite rare for this model with the Wimbledon White roof.
* NO rust or rot on this car that spent its first 40 years in AZ.
* All Doors, Hood, Tailgate, Fenders
* Floors (You can eat off the bottom of this car!)
* Grille and Headlight Trim

Monte Carlo class-winning Ford Falcon to cross the block at Monaco auction
Photos courtesy Bonhams and Ford
"Stodgy" was Ford's own term for the image that the compact Ford Falcon carried by 1963. Perhaps it never entirely shook that image (at least not in the U.S.), but with the help of some overseas rally efforts and some talented drivers, Ford made a good run at doing so over the next couple of years. Next month, one of the stars of those efforts, the ex-Bo Ljungfeldt 1964 Ford Falcon Futura Sprint coupe, will return to Monaco – the scene of its greatest triumph – to cross the auction block.
Offered with just a six-cylinder engine and with no convertible version until 1963, the Falcon certainly tended to appeal to thrift-seekers rather than thrill-seekers. Declining Falcon sales and increased competition resulted, particularly after Chevrolet introduced the Chevy II in 1962, so Ford decided to insert its new small-block V-8 engine into the Falcon and then introduce the resulting Falcon Sprint overseas at the 1963 Monte Carlo rally. To drive the Falcon Sprints in the rally, George Merwin assembled a team of well-known rally drivers including Bosse "Bo" Ljungfeldt, a Swedish driver already racing for Ford of England and the man whom Merwin would later credit for Ford's success rallying the Falcons over the next couple of years.
While Ljungfeldt finished in a disappointing 43rd place in 1963, he did manage to win all six special speed stages in that year's rally, providing Ford something to boast about in its advertisements, along with a class win by Peter Jopp. Falcons competed in a number of other rallies that year with mixed results, leading to the 1964 Monte Carlo rally, in which Merwin and team manager Alan Mann entered eight Falcons, driven by the likes of Ljungfeldt, Jopp, Anne Hall, and Graham Hill. John Holman of Holman-Moody developed a number of modifications for the Falcons, including a 305hp 289-cu.in. V-8, a Galaxie limited-slip 9-inch rear end and rear brakes, Thunderbird front disc brakes on Lincoln spindles, 15-inch wheels, stiffer springs, and fiberglass body panels. All eight Falcons finished, with Ljungfeldt placing first in the over-3-Liter class and second overall (behind Paddy Hopkirk's Mini Cooper S). What's more, Ljungfeldt placed first on four of the rally's special stages, tied for first on a fifth and set the fastest time over the Monaco Grand Prix course.
The era of rallying Falcons came to an abrupt end a few months afterward when the FIA prevented Ford from running them in the Alpine Rally for not meeting homologation requirements on many of the high-performance parts fitted to the cars. According to Merwin, Ford successfully argued that every part used on the Falcons was available from Ford, but the company had had enough with the FIA's rallying rules. Besides, Ford by that time had introduced the Mustang, so the Falcons were no longer needed. Merwin did remain enthusiastic about them years later. "With the help of our first Monte effort, the Sprint did capture a small segment of the market and helped keep Falcon sales from a really disastrous decline," he wrote in 1979. "With the Falcon, Ljungfeldt shook the very foundations of the European rally establishment."
Ljungfeldt's Falcon apparently remained in Europe over the next few decades, ultimately finding a home with another Swedish race driver, Mats Linden. In 2004, Linden pulled the Falcon out of retirement – still wearing its original fiberglass body panels and still powered by a 289 – to ship it to Mexico and run it in that year's La Carrera Panamericana, ultimately finishing third in its class.
Now Linden will offer it at Bonhams' Les Grandes Marques à Monaco auction, which will take place May 11. According to Bonhams, the Falcon (VIN 4A13F125402) is expected to sell for €150,000 – €200,000, or about $200,000 to $265,000. For more information, visit Bonhams.com.
UPDATE (18.May 2012): The Falcon did not sell at the auction. Bonhams has not reported a high bid for it. Bonhams also reported that there is a discrepancy in VINs for the Falcon: "The chassis number stamped on this car reads 4H13F125402 which corresponds to the original paperwork from the Alan Mann Racing Team currently in the possession of Peter Darley. The replacement chassis plate reads 4A13F125402 and thus more recent paperwork for this car carries this incorrect chassis number."
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1974 Ford Falcon XB ute
Most Australian Fords one sees imported into the United States are the XB coupes, or maybe the XY GTHOs, but this 1974 Ford Falcon XB ute for sale on Hemmings.com is the exception, even though it looks just as gnarly as its bed-less contemporaries. Also, bonus points for the license plate. From the seller's description:
It is equipped with a 302 V8, four-speed manual transmission, and right-hand drive. It also has the GS road wheels, "NASA" bonnet w/bonnet locks, rally grille with Hella foglights, bucket seats, console with floor shifter, special stripe package, etc. Power steering, power disc brakes and air conditioning. The A/C is not working but every component is there. Painted in the very cool '70's Tropicana Green metallic. Nice high quality tonneau cover for the bed, and Col Paige Ford "SuperDog" decal in the back window.
The engine is a 302-cu.in. Cleveland, the same as a 351 but de-stroked by Ford. Most parts are interchangeable with the 351. The engine has a performance cam with a slight but noticeable lope, and the exhaust note is spectacular!
This is an unrestored car that would either make a very fun daily driver, or a great basis for taking it to the next level. Parts are easy to get for these online from various sources. A workshop manual and spare parts are included.

Four-Links – Old Red, Roy Repp, Salt Watch, American Graffiti
* A reader named Lindsay tipped us off to the story of "Old Red," the Ford Falcon XY GT bought for cruising the Australian Outback that remains largely original, down to the thorough coating of red Outback dust. I volunteer to make the trip to photograph Old Red for a Driveable Dream feature story…
* Roy Repp had some interesting ideas when it came to automobiles and using them to entertain the masses, as we see from this post by David Greenlees over at The Old Motor.
* You've surely heard of the Save the Salt campaign by now, focused on making sure the Bonneville Salt Flats remain salty and not just flat. Yet information on the campaign can be disjointed and spread all over the Internet at times, so Larry ledwick put together Bonneville Salt Watch, a recently launched site dedicated to becoming a central clearinghouse for information about the thinning salt situation at Bonneville.
* Think you're an expert in "American Graffiti," George Lucas's 1973 paean to hot rodding? Then take a look at The Selvedge Yard's collection of photos and info on the film.
* Finally, this car really rocks.
SIA Flashback – 1965 Falcon vs. 1965 Mustang
Over the next couple of years, we'll be reading plenty of Mustang histories as the famed pony car heads into its (baby boomers avert your eyes now) 50th anniversary celebration. One pet peeve of mine when reading Mustang histories is that they give cursory props to the Falcon that the Mustang was based on, and almost never compare-contrast the two. Not so with Alex Meredith's comparison report on the 1965 Falcon and Mustang from SIA #110, April 1989, which put the two head to head and reaches a mixed judgement.
1963 Ford Falcon: Steam Power Edition
In a perfect automotive world, history reveals that most of the technology we think of as new is quite old. Electric cars? Ask Detroit Electric (1907-1939) how that worked out. Hybrid cars? Dr. Porsche (1875-1951) himself could have expounded at length. Steam powered the Aeolipile, or Hero engine, 2,000 or so years ago in Greece, the industrial revolution few years later, a few automobiles along the way, and speeding locomotives up until not even that long ago. Only Superman could fly faster. Modern locomotives are series hybrids: a diesel engine powers a dynamo, which generates electricity to turn the wheels.
As combustion is better controlled at constant engine speed, the locomotive churns economically across great distances. Taking a series hybrid and a steam engine into a car was Australian engineer Edward Pritchard, who built a steam-powered 1963 Ford Falcon in the early '70s. The Green Stripe Pritchard Steam Car efficiently burned most any combustible liquid, and drove about just like any other 1963 Falcon. While the Hemmings wood pellet fired 1977 Mercury Bobcat steam wagon is still in the developmental stage, this video reveals a steam powered Falcon that actually worked.
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1963 Ford Falcon Deluxe Squire
Were this 1963 Ford Falcon Deluxe Squire painted white, we'd have almost thought it was the same Falcon Squire that Bandit Films profiled a few months back – it's got that California surf wagon vibe down pat, which shouldn't be surprising, given that it's spent its entire life out in the Golden State. From the seller's description:
64,050 original mile California car. Black exterior and interior. Bucket seats w/console and factory ashtray. Perfectly straight rust-free body, professionally striped and resprayed with two-stage paint. New correct pattern/color woodgrain insert panels throughout. New correct pattern/color insert panel trims and new attach fasteners. Excellent original interior with new headliner – carpet kit needs to be installed. Moon tachometer. Factory vanity mirror in glovebox. Factory tinted windows, all new rubber seals. Electric rear window. Luggage rack with excellent chrome and factory rack cover accessory.
Newly rebuilt 289 (500 miles) w/RV cam. Newly rebuilt C4 transmission (500 miles). Edelbrock Performer intake manifold with Autolite 4100 four-barrel carburetor (restoration by Pony Carburetor). Edelbrock finned aluminum valve covers. Hedman Hedders, custom dual exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers. New four-row radiator. New wiring harness, water pump, fuel pump, hoses, etc. New dual master cylinder with power booster. Rebuilt Granada disc brakes (front), Falcon drums on rear. Completely rebuilt front/rear suspension (Mustang Plus components). Rebuilt V-8 rear end (63-1/2 Falcon). Five powdercoated 14″ steel wheels. New BFGoodrich tires.
This is a rare, rust-free, fully optioned, four-door station wagon. No expense was spared in the restoration.

2009 political crisis
In late 2008 Ravalomanana was challenged by Andry Rajoelina, the mayor of Antananarivo and a popular opposition leader. Rajoelina accused Ravalomanana of misappropriating public funds and ruling the country as a dictator and called for him to step down, which Ravalomanana refused to do. The struggle between Ravalomanana and Rajoelina came to a head in January 2009, when dozens were killed during opposition protests. Rajoelina was fired from his mayoral post, and the conflict between the two leaders developed into a tense stalemate with sporadic bouts of violence. The crisis intensified in March, when the head of the army was removed by a faction of troops who no longer supported Ravalomanana's administration.
Although Ravalomanana had the support of the international community, domestically he was faced with the loss of military support and continued public unrest, and on March 17 he agreed to step down from office and hand power to the military. Within hours, military leaders transferred power to Rajoelina, who had already declared himself president. The international community widely condemned the military's unconstitutional transfer of power to Rajoelina as a coup.
Ravalomanana went into exile on the African continent, but Madagascar was still left in the grips of political crisis, as Rajoelina was internationally shunned and did not have complete support of the Malagasy public. Over the next several months, Ravalomanana, along with Rajoelina and other Malagasy political leaders, participated in several mediation sessions led by international organizations in an attempt to alleviate the crisis. Rajoelina, however, rejected the outcome of these negotiations in late 2009. (For additional detail, see Madagascar: History, The Third Republic, Power Struggle.)
In August 2010 a Malagasy court convicted Ravalomanana in absentia of murder and sentenced him to life in prison with hard labour. The conviction was for the deaths of at least 30 of Rajoelina's supporters that occurred when Ravalomanana's presidential guard troops opened fire on protesters during a march on the presidential palace in February 2009; Ravalomanana rejected the verdict.

Latest Joan Morris Stories
By Joan Morris Grab your torches and dust off your copy of "The Art of War" -- the 17th season of "Survivor: Gabon" swings into gear Thursday, sending 18 castaways back to Africa, which CBS is calling "Earth's last Eden." The tease from the network reads like the same old, same old: Survivors, extreme conditions, elephants, gorillas, alliances, blah, blah, blah.
By Joan Morris Dear Joan: Public Storage has a commercial running that shows a man, a woman and a baby in a covered wagon. I am sure the man is Buck Jones, a movie cowboy who died in a fire at the Cocoanut Grove night club in the 1940s.
By Edward Reichel Deseret News It's difficult, if not downright impossible, not to like William Bolcom's music. He's an iconoclast who takes the best that European music has had to offer in the past 300 years and blends it with American 20th century idioms.
By Joan Morris Fluffing and folding the news Going boldly Our employers over the years have asked us for some odd things (showing up on time, meeting deadlines -- crazy things), but we think NASA takes the cake. The urinal cake, that is.
By Joan Morris The last time the Diet Club met, we talked about finding the right diet, and this time we're going to discuss ways to stay motivated.
By Edward Reichel Deseret News For composer and pianist William Bolcom, 2008 is a milestone year. He turned 70 in May, and the occasion has been marked by ongoing celebrations across the country.
By Joan Morris, Contra Costa Times, Walnut Creek, Calif. Jun. 21--Tough lessons At times, the Spin Cycle likes to drop its completely unhelpful tone and try to impart a measure of wisdom. And here it is.
- To say in too many words; to express verbosely.
- To express in too many words: sometimes used reflexively.
- The leading idea or a repeated phrase, as of a song or ballad; the refrain; burden.

I don't doubt that Betty Britain is a perfectly nice person
I also don't doubt that there are people who don't have any particular hostility or dislike towards Katie Price
But there's no reason to be a "fan" of Katie Price. She doesn't do anything, or have a definable talent, or possess exceptional abilities to deserve having "fans"
