Re: Considering PSC for family of 4
This will obviously come out the wrong way, but not sure how else to say it...
Why anyone would buy a PSC or a Valiant to hop around the Chessy or possibly coastal hop to FL or maybe Bermuda is a mystery to me.
They are great boats, but TIGHT down below. Two adults and two teenagers... wow. So you know, I am raising and have raised my children on my boat (one a teenager now) so I have a pretty good idea what space they take up (for cruising at least). I could not comfortably do iton a Crealok 37.
I consider both of those boats a good couples or singles boat, but not one I would choose to take out with a family. Those boats are great go anywhere boats, but you are not going to be crossing oceans, right? WHy not get a boat with more space, comfort, privacy, and newer that may not have as many inherent problem? Quite candidly, the production boats are ideal for what you want to do.
If you look at a PSC, here are things to consider:
Many of the Crealoks had aluminum stanchions. Good friends of ours just replaced theirs for a mere $5000 after one broke and their crew ended up on the dock (and luckily not the water offshore). The track for the car on the cabin top had to be pulled and rebeded. That was a CHORE. Both the compression posts failed. Still in the yard for that one. The forestay pulled the stem plate loose on a crossing to Bahamas. Fixable, but more yard time in the US. They have spent insane amount of money to make that boat (or keep the boat) seaworthy.
If you buy an old Crealok, the theory is you are getting a really well made boat to go anywhere. They are (or were) well made for their time. But the reality is you are now dealing with a very old boat that inherently will have many problems as ALL old boats do. Make sure you are knowledgeable, financially prepared, and mentally ready for those issues. Its not going to be a fun family boat if it is sitting in the yard all the time, or draining your savings every time you turn around, or cramped and uncomfortable for anything more than a short weekend. Ask yourself if you would not be better suited to buy a much newer production boat that would be more comfortable, newer, and hopefully less maintenance issues and costs... even if you have to spend more for it??
PS I am not being negative on the boats. They have a place and a purpose. I just dont think this is it. BTW, if you buy a V40, many had blister issues. Look into that. THey are a comparable boat, and very well made (again, for their time).

New York City Landlord Hit With Record $2M Fair Housing Act Settlement
by Bob Marsico on May 30, 2012
The U.S. Department of Justice recently announced that it has reached a record $2 million settlement with the owners and former manager of a New York City apartment building. The New York City housing discrimination lawsuit alleged that the defendants violated the Fair Housing Act (FHA) by subjecting numerous female tenants to severe, unwelcome and pervasive sexual harassment.
Under the settlement, the defendants will pay more than $2 million to the tenants who were alleged to have been the victims of the harassment. In addition, the defendants will pay $55,000 in civil penalties, the maximum penalty available under the FHA. The $2,058,000, agreement represents the largest recovery ever in a sexual harassment suit brought by the United States under statute, according to a DOJ press statement

It is basically a against the clock game, as players are given a time limit to complete a course, the less time they take the more points they get.The game's controls consisted of a steering wheel, a gear shifter, an acceleration pedal, and a brake pedal. It was one of the first arcade games to use ROM (Read-only Memory); it was used to save the score, timer, the race track, and the car sprites.

Bell Wins Best of the Best Award
GREENSBORO, N.C., Aug. 9 /PRNewswire/ — Bell Senior Living (BSL), operator of 28 senior living communities across the Southeast, recently won a Best of the Best Award presented by the Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA).
Headquartered in Greensboro, BSL oversees a senior living network that primarily includes independent living, assisted living care and services for the memory impaired.
Bell Senior Living was recognized for its Bell Ringer Program, a resident retention program that focuses on individual care needs of each resident.
In effect, the Bell Ringer program is a sophisticated "buddy system" that assigns a new resident to a BSL manager or department head throughout the resident's transition into a new home and its surroundings.
Initiated at move-in, the program monitors and records each new resident's health, personal and administrative requirements, smoothing the resident's transition.
Jerry Cooper, senior vice president of professional affairs for Alexandria, VA-headquartered ALFA, noted, "The beauty of the Bell program is that it is proactive rather than reactive, accounting for future needs and allowing arrangements to be made for those needs."
Jeff Sylvester, vice president of BSL operations, said, "The Best of the Best recognition is important for all of our communities. Being rewarded at the national level sets higher standards for all of us at BSL."
Bell Senior Living is a division of Bell Partners, a real estate investment and management company. Bell Senior Living comprises 28 senior living communities in the Southeast, including North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia and Florida.
Many of the Bell communities offer a Seasons unit, a comprehensive program specifically designed to accommodate the changing needs of residents with Alzheimer's disease or other memory-related impairments.

May 29, 2015
The Bay District School Board is about to enter the fight over whether evolution should be taught as fact or theory.
At next Wednesday's board meeting, the panel will decide whether to approve a resolution opposing the proposed teaching of evolution as a scientific fact. That's six days before the state Board of Education decides whether to adopt new sunshine state standards for science.
Those standards present evolution as "the fundamental concept underlying all of biology, and is supported in multiple forms of scientific evidence".
The proposed local resolution calls for the teaching of the scientific strengths and weaknesses of the evolution "theory", rather than teaching it as dogmatic fact.
The resolution is similar to those adopted by several area school boards. and Marianna State Representative Marti Coley is urging the legislature to add the word "theory" in a new evolution bill.

Even though any machine is better than no machine, i would rather get the machine i want right the first time instead of having to upgrade which costs more, or selling and buying again which takes a lot of time and effort. but then again, MP is a great machine. How often do you string?
Much of what you say makes sense. There is a balance to achieve between researching infinitely and buying too quickly.
I feel like this is something that I probably couldn't have really gotten right the first time, to be honest.
I feel like I DID make the right decision with the information I had at the time.
I didn't know I would be stringing this many racquets (it's not a ton, maybe 5 to 8 per week), but I generally promise whatever turnaround my customers want, so sometimes I'll have 3 or 4 to do in an evening. And because of my work and family schedule I cannot usually start until about 9pm (and I usually get up at 5am).
Had I realized much of this up front, I would have gone with spring-assisted clamps. I also didn't think 5-tooth vs 3-tooth matter much (and if it's just a few racquets a month, then I still think it doesn't). But when doing several in a row, I'm starting to appreciate the "little" things.
Also, it's worth pointing out, for anyone following my posts on the forums, that I am an especially fussy person (I should have taken THAT into account when purchasing!). Most people, to be honest, are probably not as fussy as I am. I sometimes joke that it is my "never-ending quest in life to remain miserable 100% of the time, no matter what my situation is"

Hi folks,

Holiday Destinations
June 10, 2007 This isn't a gizmo so much as a fantastic free Web service that we see as being exceptionally useful. It's tough enough working out how not to order the monkey brains when you're in a foreign country where you don't speak the language - let alone communicating to restaurant staff and stall vendors about food allergies that could ruin your holiday and even cost you your life. Food-info.net is a great free service that lets you download printable PDF files of more than 200 allergenic food items and their translations in a wide range of languages. Read More
On the seventh of July – the seventh of the seventh, 2007 to be exact – it will be out with the old and in with the...old. Bernard Weber and the N7W committee have organised a ceremony in Lisbon to unveil the new seven wonders of the world. It will be a truly international event, designed to transcend differences in politics and culture and focus on humanity's crowning achievements. And although the structures themselves are the focus of the event, the fact that, so far, over 40 million online and mobile phone votes have been cast for something that isn't Big Brother is so comforting it is almost worthy of a second celebration.

The intelligent travel humidor
March 26, 2007
March 27, 2007 It's the first intelligent travel humidor and the result of two and a half years of hard labour by CAO CEO Tim Ozgener. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect is that it's just the packaging for the Vision Cigar which has been four and a half years in the making. The CAO Vision Sensi-Box is a showcase, travel cigar box and humidor. It will keep your Vision cigars at 68-72% relative humidity for up to three months before needing a Humidipack refill, and the AAA batteries that power the electronics that regulate the humidity and power the theatrical blue LED lights will last longer with moderate usage. Spacers inside the box adapt it to each type of cigar and a neoprene travel bag protects the box against scratches. Read More
The Grand Canyon Skywalk
March 21, 2007
March 22, 2007 Creating a structure as spectacular as the new U-shaped Grand Canyon Skywalk observation platform requires reliable engineering - visitors will be standing on all-glass flooring suspended 4,000 feet above the Colorado River. The architect's vision is that visitors will have the sensation of floating freely without the intrusion of visible supports and can enjoy a panoramic view. The graphic shows the height of the Grand Canyon Skywalk compared with the world's tallest buildings. The Skywalk opens March 28 when visitors will be able to scare themselves silly looking between their feet, through two inches of ultra-clear DuPont SentryGlas Plus structural interlayers and onwards to the depths below them. The DuPont material provide strength and stiffness plus optical clarity for the all- glass flooring that enables visitors to have an unprecedented viewing experience while standing safely on the observation platform. Analysis done by DuPont; the glass supplier, Saint-Gobain; and structural engineering consultants show that the laminated glass floor can hold the weight of up to 120 people and maintain a top safety rating even in the face of 100 miles per hour winds.

The solar-powered rotating skyscraper
December 19, 2006
December 20, 2006 Gulf city state Dubai's growth and far-reaching vision continues to astound us – we've already written about the World's tallest building and largest mall and the monumentally-large real estate synthesis projects such as the Palm and world island groups and then there's the world's largest airport which is currently under construction and dozens of other projects which would make any city proud. Then earlier this year Dubai-based High Rise Real estate announced a Rotating Tower with four rotating penthouses and a rotating villa. Now the Rotating Tower has been seriously gazumped with the news of the Time Residences tower which will become one of the most unique engineering feats of the modern world - a solar-powered rotating skyscraper. The 30-floor Time Residences will provide 200 one- and two-bedroom apartments as well as duplexes and penthouses with continuously-changing views of one of the most exciting skylines on Planet Earth. Just so you know they're serious, the company has announced plans to build a further 23 such rotating towers around the world. Read More
October 20, 2006 We've looked at luxury homes on wheels (A, B, C, D, E), relocatable homes that get delivered to the location of your choice (A, B, C, D), mobile homes that float (A, B) and even relocatable homes that hang in the trees (A, B). As the world becomes geographically untethered, we expect the market for taking it with you will just grow and grow. If you love the serendipitous discovery of travel but long for the creature comforts and space of home, the Residential Cruise Ship option might be for you. One of the first such concepts we covered in our first print issue four years ago was the Freedom Ship (A, B) and the first fully-operational residential cruise ship was the Residensea. Now there's a US$650 million dollar private residential cruise ship project underway named the Magellan. Buy an apartment on the Magellan and your residence will regularly circumnavigate the globe while you live in the epitome of luxury with a full service retractable marina, on-call private Bell 429 helicopters and 150 ports of call. Residents have anytime access to their floating penthouses which live within the amenities and services of the what is being billed as one of the world's finest resorts. On-call housekeeping staff, a world-class spa and marketplace, 24-hour concierge staff, indoor and outdoor pools, four restaurants, a 450-seat theatre featuring Broadway-quality entertainment, a casino worthy of Monte Carlo and a Starbucks cafe are just a few of the conveniences. Residences on the Magellan range in price from US$1.8 million to US$8 million, there's fractional ownership available which might make it available through share clubs, and the destination map is here.

Nowhere Else Road, Nowhere Else
October 14, 2006
October 15, 2006 This folks, is a picture of Nowhere Else. Indeed, this is Nowhere else Road, Nowhere Else, situated in Tasmania,Australia's second largest island. Tasmania has always been one of the most remote places on earth. 20,000 years ago its inhabitants lived further southward than any other humans and the island was chosen as the site for a remote and inescapable penal settlement in 1803 as it is separated from the main continent of Australia by several hundred kilometres of the roughest water in the world – Bass Strait. It is not just remote, being spectacularly beautiful and possibly the most unspoiled natural environment on the planet with a fiercely green vote at the ballot and more than 40% of its of 68,332 square kilometres being National Parks and World Heritage Sites. Taswegian's are a relaxed bunch, with a reputation for an oddball sense of humour, as evidenced by some of the official town names. Doo Town in Tasmania is a holiday village where all the house names contain doo, such as This Will Doo, Doo Come In, Love Me Doo, Much-A-Doo, and Doo Little. There's also the quaintly named Tasmanian location of Nowhere Else. Situated 20 minutes from Devonport, Nowhere Else shares a postcode (7306) but has no pub, no council, not even a general store. The general store is nearby but it's not in Nowhere Else, cos its somewhere else. So when we saw that a property was for sale on Nowhere Else Road, in Nowhere Else, Australia, 7306 we figured that it might be useful to one of our readers, if only for value on your business card. At an asking price of AUD$350,000 (US$260,000) for 40 acres of prime rural land, it's worth a look. Read More
Delta's Lie-Flat Airline Seats
October 12, 2006
October 13, 2006 Long haul flights can indeed feel very long if you're not comfortable when attempting to sleep, so we'll bet that there will be many of our readers eyeing the new Delta fully-horizontal BusinessElite sleeper suites and picturing themselves catching zeds in much more comfort than ever before when travelling.

All the sleeper suites will offer on-demand digital video and music at every suite and immediate access to the aisle so they don't have to disturb another passenger when exiting their seat. Read More
The World's First Mobile Hotel Room
August 7, 2006
August 8, 2006 If camping is not your go, but from time to time there's an outdoor music festival or some other gotta-be-there outdoor event, take heart – help is on the way. British budget hotel brand Travelodge is exploring the concept of mobile hotel rooms. Each Travelpod is sealed in a 6 x 2.4 x 2.6 metre clear polycarbonate box but inside has features that you will find in any Travelodge hotel across the country. The room comes complete with a luxury double bed, bedside tables, lights, duvet, pillows, fully carpeted floor, dressing table with light, mirror, chair and even its own WC. The concept is being evaluated in a series of soft trials and trials will be opened to customers next summer, targeting festivals and other major outdoor events. It is envisioned that the mobile room will be transported on the back of a lorry to each location and positioned by crane as required. The trial price will match the company's leading room rate of UKP26 per night which makes it an entirely new class of accommodation – wonder if they'll offer a luxury suite? Read More
Another outsourcing opportunity – the Sleepover Suite
August 7, 2006
August 8, 2006 Any parent who has presided over a girl's sleepover will well know the problems – no sleep, lots of noise and mess, and a totally disrupted home. Indeed, it's one aspect of a child's growing up that is tailor-made for outsourcing and sure enough, it's now on offer. Based on research that shows British parents annually spend over a GBP1 billion on kids' parties, speciality hotel Alton Towers has created a purpose built sleepover suite where up to six friends can hold the ultimate girls' sleepover party. Some absolute "must-haves" for the design included the ability to have very loud pop music, make up and styling products galore, movie marathons plus party food on tap. As a result the soundproofed room features the latest home entertainment systems, karaoke and dance area, theatrical style dressing tables and cleverly designed Chill-out beds which can clip together to make one big bed for gossip sessions! The Sleepover suite pilot scheme opened on July 14 and is priced from GBP300 – not surprisingly, demand is very strong. Image gallery here. Read More

Australia mulls probe into financial scandal at Commonwealth Bank of Australia
Published on Jun 27, 2014 11:44 AM
SYDNEY (AFP) - Australia said on Friday it would consider calls for a national inquiry into a major financial scandal at the country's biggest listed firm, but would not rush a decision.
Prime Minister Tony Abbott said he was considering a report by a Senate committee that urged a royal commission into the Commonwealth Bank of Australia's financial planning arm amid allegations of forgery, fraud and cover-ups between 2006 and 2010.
Thousands of people are reported to have lost their life savings after CBA advisers placed them on risky products - including forging signatures in some cases - before the global financial crisis as they chased large bonuses.
The products collapsed, leading to the loss of millions of dollars. The Senate inquiry found the bank then underpaid the victims through compensation, allegedly tried to avoid scrutiny from regulators and covered up its actions.

Center City Development Corp. panel offers Third St. proposal
A committee on Wednesday recommended expanding retail incentives to Third Street and reducing paperwork for applicants for office and facade improvement grants.
The Center City Development Corp. policy review committee also questioned whether a hold on incentives for the Pinch district should be continued amid uncertainties surrounding a city-sponsored development plan.
The full board is expected to consider those and other policy issues next Wednesday.
The retail incentive, which provides forgivable loans for new retailers, has been limited to Main, Front and Second from A.W. Willis on the north to G.E. Patterson on the south, and Madison, Monroe and Union from Front to Manassas.
Board members had questioned why Third Street wasn't targeted as well. FedExForum and AutoZone Park are on Third and regularly draw crowds to the street.
Forgivable loans convert into grants if applicants stay in business and meet all program conditions. They've been used for clothing stores, galleries, a grocery store and other businesses.
The development board said in mid-December that it wouldn't accept applications for incentives in the Pinch district until mid-March, a move aimed at supporting the city of Memphis' proposed redevelopment of the area adjoining The Pyramid.
The Bass Pro Shops deal for The Pyramid has since gotten snagged on seismic issues and city officials have indicated that they may be looking at a different approach to Pinch redevelopment.
"The committee directed staff to contact the city to see if the moratorium should be continued, and how long," Center City Commission president Paul Morris said.
In other action, the committee -- chairman Eric Mathews and members Jay Lindy, Bobbi Gillis, Angel Price and Craig Dillihunt -- voted to put a uniform $500 application fee on all incentive programs.
They recommended eliminating a requirement that applicants for office and facade improvement grants furnish financial and tax documents.
"The theme here is to make it as simple as possible and have as little red tape as possible," Morris said. "We want to be good stewards of the public's money but we don't want to burden applicants with unnecessary regulations."

I am trying to use Sociable on a WP based shopping cart run using the "The Cart Press" plugin, and out of the box the sociable icons would not be added to the product pages, which are really a custom post type created by the cart press plugin.
Adding the following code replacing line 612 of includes/sociable_output.php seems to have fixed the problem.
$types = get_post_types( $args, 'names' , 'and');
$types[] = "post";
if( is_single() && in_array(get_post_type(), $types)){
It would be great if this functionality could be built into the plugin for future users, or possibly made into an option (eg "display on these post types").
Hopefully this will help someone, in looking for a solution I saw at least one other person with this same problem.

BAZINGA! Atuna's SKETCHBOOK
Hello everybody!
I wanted to open a sketchbook for a long time but everytime I look at those already existing, felt like a total loser. So many awesome sketchbooks here X___X ... I really want to be as good as everyone else here.
My name's Miriam, 18 years old , female and from germany.
I know XD too much germans here ( wir sind überall was XD? )
2006 I've started with Manga , but I failed miserably.
Until August 2010 I started taking art more "seriously". I chanced my style and lost many time with doodling on your books.
Since march 2011 I practice anatomy and the rest.
I'm really inspired by japanese music ( I love KOKIA )
That's all. I'll practise, I promise.
Still life from yesterday
still life again
And my latest art. I'm still painting on it. ( WIP )
( the goddess of the cherry blossoms )
Don`t look at the anatomy etc. It`s not finished

oh I'm liking your sketchbook so far.
On your Goddess of Cherry Blossoms, there are some issues (the biggest one in my eyes being the angle of the hair on the head doesn't seem right), but I think it's a solid piece overall. I'm not the best at critiquing, but I would suggest posting this up on the Critique Center as the advice you get there will be invaluable.
Also, very nice still lifes. I thought they were photographs at first.

Surgical instrument system targets where surgeons should operate
Wednesday, September 9, 2009
Media Contact: Herb Booth, Office:817-272-7075, Cell:214-546-1082, firstname.lastname@example.com
ARLINGTON - An image-guided surgical instrument system that pinpoints where to cut on patients who have scar tissue or other conditions has the chance to revolutionize surgical procedures.
Researchers at The University of Texas at Arlington's College of Engineering are developing the Multifunctional, Image Guided Surgical (MIGS) platform. The MIGS platform integrates a high resolution, depth-resolved optical imaging system, a laser scalpel, a miniature multi‐axis translation system, software to work the system and a control system on a single platform.
Digant Davé, assistant professor in bioengineering, is leading the team and has secured two grants totaling $614,000 from the National Institutes of Health to complete his development of the MIGS platform.
"Imagine a joystick with which the surgeon can position the imager and scalpel at the right location to see buried tissue layers and perform surgery," Davé said.
Many times, patients who have had previous surgeries, radiation treatments, tumors or inflammation have adhesion between different tissues, leaving surgeons without the normal tissue plane guidance they rely upon to identify various organs. This makes surgery for these patients risky. The MIGS platform enables the surgeon to see things in the body more clearly.
Davé said sometimes surgery hasn't been done because of the adhesions, leaving some disease processes untreated.
"This technology will enable us to see through scar tissue and identify critical regions between delicate structures, then enable us to use a very fine laser to cut through," said Dr. Edward Livingston, professor and chief of gastrointestinal and endocrine surgery at UT Southwestern and professor of biomedical engineering. "This will be a major leap that will allow us to do very complex surgery."
Davé said the completed MIGS platform will require the development of a compact and robust 3D optical imaging probe and the integration of a fiber laser scalpel with the imaging probe for precision tissue cutting. Davé expects to complete the platform within the two-year period covered by the funding grants.
The project will be conducted at UT Arlington's Optical Medical Imaging Laboratories located in the Advanced Imaging Research Center at the UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. Besides Dr. Livingston, UT Arlington Bioengineering Professor Liping Tang and Virginia Tech Professor Shashank Priya are collaborating with Dave.
The University of Texas at Arlington is an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.

|raum: online artist residencies
Doc's Kingdom was in residence at raum platform, presenting "an imaginary and incomplete map" to the sound archive of the seminar's colective discussions. Ana Eliseu and Nuno Lisboa propose an audio-drawing where we can listen to a multilingual conversation between filmmakers who participated in some of the eleven editions of Doc's Kingdom.
|Visions on 2013
Ten of the 2013 Doc's Kingdom fellows wrote texts or made short films about the latest edition of the seminar. The 16mm machine breaks down during the screening of Les Soviets plus l'électricité , we talk to Joaquim Pinto on Skype, we make the boat trip to the Pico Island. To read and watch.
|2013 archive
The archive of the 2013 edition is now available. You can access the programme and stills of the films screened, download the auxiliary texts and check the list of everyone who made this Doc's Kingdom, as well as see photographs from the Azores and drawings of the invited filmmakers. Soon, the transcriptions of the discussions.
|Transcriptors needed
We would like to publish online the transcriptions of all of Doc's Kingdom discussions. The years 2000 (Portuguese only), 2002, 2005 and 2006 can already be accessed. We are looking for volunteers who can fluently understand and write Portuguese and/ or English and who could transcribe one (1) discussion of the remaining editions.

Understanding Underwriting
Underwriting is the name the FCC has given to announcements acknowledging public radio's supporters from the business community. Although listener contributions remain the single largest source of KCRW's funding, they have not kept up with the growing expenses of running a radio station in the second largest radio market in the world. Without underwriting, KCRW would be forced to hold a third on-air fundraiser.
Sounds of Silence
While the commercial "breaks" on L.A. radio have become longer and longer, underwriting announcements on KCRW have become 25% shorter. Each announcement is now limited to only 15 seconds, and there are never more than six local "credits" per hour - that's a minute and a half per hour as compared to more than 10 minutes of ads often heard per hour on commercial stations. Paid public service announcements for nonprofits such as performing arts organizations and schools remain just 30 seconds.
KCRW has also cut the time for station program promotion by 50% by reducing these spots from 30 seconds to mostly just 15 seconds. We've also slashed the time allocated to fundraising spots designed to support our direct mail campaigns. Previously these spots ran one minute. Now they're 30 seconds.
No Interruptions
KCRW does not interrupt its news and information programs for underwriting announcements!
Except for on-air fund drives, regular programming is not pre-empted for non-program material. Program breaks are provided by NPR and PRI, usually four per hour. Hourly station identification announcements are required by the FCC. Our underwriting policy on local music programs prohibits interruptions during discreet music sets or in-studio concerts and interviews.
Please Support Our Underwriters
Both the for-profit and non-profit organizations whose messages you hear are critical to KCRW's continued survival. We encourage you to patronize them when you need the products and services they provide.
More is Less
So, yes, you are hearing the names of more underwriters than ever. But you're hearing shorter announcements, and you're experiencing one less subscription drive! So there is more reason to support KCRW underwriters than ever before.
KCRW raises the bulk of its operating budget from the station s 55,000+ subscribers through twice-annual on-air fundraisers. The remainder comes from a variety of organizations including corporations and non-profits who support the station in a variety of ways. Thanks to them, we don t have to go on-air a third time.
Below you'll find an overview of the ways KCRW works with organizations in the community. Are you interested in finding out more? Please contact our Underwriting Director in KCRW's Business Development Department.
Organizations who join KCRW s Business Circle do so with an annual fixed contribution, which entitles them to (1x) weekly name acknowledgement on-air for one year and (1x) daily name acknowledgement during the first Pledge Drive after they join the Business Circle. Please contact our Underwriting Department (firstname.lastname@example.com) at KCRW for more information.
The most effective way to create an on-air presence, underwriting enables your organization to reach KCRW listeners and KCRW.com visitors regularly. Your 15-second message airs on KCRW and all its full-time simulcasts, including online, broadcast and digital cable. It may include information about your company's products or services and may include a web address, street address or phone number. Schedule length and number of announcements reflect level of financial commitment and placement of the messages. Run of schedule placement is Monday-Sunday 5am-12midnight. Narrowed times of day and even specific programs may be requested at a premium. Underwriters support KCRW with annual contributions of $3,000 to $300,000 or more. All schedules are subject to availability. Please contact our Underwriting Department (firstname.lastname@example.com) at KCRW for more information.
KCRW.com banners exist in various sizes and formats, including flash animated .swf. Placements include run of site rotations and specific pages, with both unlimited and geo-targeted exposure. Pre-roll welcome ads are available for all live streams and on-demand archives, combining visual banners and audio messages on KCRW's Media Player. KCRW podcasts offer pre-roll sponsorship opportunities, while KCRW eNewsletters may include static sponsor banners. All sponsorship opportunities are subject to availability.
When KCRW hosts events throughout the community, the station's listeners and supporters enjoy an opportunity to meet and greet each other and KCRW personalities. Your organization can capitalize on this good will by underwriting KCRW special events, such as Good Food Live; Left, Right & Center Live; Masquerade; KCRW Sessions. Sponsorships generally run $5,000 to $35,000 or more and offer multi-platform promotional exposure.
KCRW gives away tickets to performing arts and other events many times each day. Ticket providers contribute 5-pair blocks of tickets. In exchange, they receive on-air promotion. Opportunities are limited. Please contact Mary Chellamy (firstname.lastname@example.com) for more information.
Nearly 1,000 merchants and organizations participate in this member discount program created to reward KCRW supporters. These organizations offer incentives to Fringe Benefits cardholders – usually discounts of 15% or more, 2-for-1 offers or other inducements – with no program costs to the business other than the discount they provide. The Fringe Benefits program places providers in front of the dynamic and dedicated audience of KCRW, creating a valuable branding and promotion tool. Please contact Beth Topping (firstname.lastname@example.com) at KCRW for more information.
When KCRW goes on-air in August and February to raise money for its annual operating budget, more than 600 local businesses contribute premiums ranging in value from $50 to $5000, and receive promotional consideration commensurate with their donation. These businesses consider KCRW Pledge Drive Promotions an invaluable way to increase awareness while supporting a vital public resource. Please contact Beth Topping (email@example.com) at KCRW for more information.
Your organization or business may challenge KCRW listeners to support the station during its twice annual pledge drives by providing Challenge Grants to air during prime commuter hours. Your company will generate corporate good will as it gives back to the community. Challenge Grant providers contribute $3,000 to $20,000 per pledge drive.
KCRW Corporate & Community Supporters
KCRW thanks the following corporate, non-profit and foundation funders for their support. We encourage you to patronize our corporate & non-profit underwriters and write the station's foundation funders to thank them!
