Report: Ottawa's Swedish league sensation to make NHL debut vs. New York
Apr 23, 2012, 2:19 PM EDT
From the "didn't see this coming" file…
According to Renaud Lavoie of RDS, Senators prospect Jakob Silfverberg will make his NHL debut tonight on the biggest of stages — Game 6 of their Eastern Conference quarterfinal against the New York Rangers.
Sportsnet's Ian Mendes says Silfverberg sounds like a guy preparing to play.
"Of course I will be a bit nervous," he explained. "But as soon the game starts, it will be gone by then."
Silfverberg, 21, was drafted 39th overall by Ottawa in 2009. He spent this past season leading Byrnas IF Savle of the Swedish Elite League in scoring en route to winning the league's most valuable player award.
He then proceeded to lead the SEL in playoff scoring….and captured postseason MVP honors as well.
So yeah, kid's got a resume.
It sounds as though he'll draw into the lineup and replace Mark Stone, the 19-year-old rookie that made his NHL debut in Game 5, assisting on Jason Spezza's game-winning tally.
While some might question the thinking behind throwing Silfverberg into playoff action, it should be noted he's only five days removed from winning the SEL championship.
"It's a dream come true," Silfverberg told the Globe and Mail.
PHT Fun Fact: Silfverberg wore No. 100 for Brynas this season. Yeah, seriously.
According to an article by Henrik Sjoberg on Expressen.se, Ottawa Senators forward Jakob Silfverberg will make his NHL debut in Game 6 against the New York Rangers on Monday at Scotiabank Place (7 p.m. ET, NBCSN, CBC). Ottawa has a 3-2 lead in the series and can close the Eastern Conference Quarterfinal matchup with a win against the top-seeded Rangers.
"I'm playing," Silfverberg says in the article.
Silfverberg took part in the morning skate Monday, seeing time on the top line with Milan Michalek and Jason Spezza. After the skate, Ottawa coach Paul MacLean said he still was considering the possibility of playing Silfverberg.
The player, though, said the decision already has been made.
"I'm slated to play with Spezza and Michalek but I'm pretty sure they'll shuffle the lines quite a bit so we'll just see," Silfverberg said in the Expressen.se article.
Say this about the Senators and MacLean — they've shown some real moxie this series.

- Malkin To The Kings - Apr 23, 2012 at 3:24 PM
He was not only the season MVP, Playoff MVP, and scored the GWG of the Eliteserien final, he also broke the playoff record for scoring. That record was held by… Daniel Alfredssson.
- bdfools - Apr 23, 2012 at 5:50 PM
An impressive resume for sure. Just keep in mind that Mats Zuccarello won the MVP award in that league two years ago, was not drafted, and has not been able to stay in the NHL on a consistent basis. So far, at least.
- sweezz - Apr 23, 2012 at 4:15 PM
Wait…. that's a dude?
- hooockey - Apr 23, 2012 at 6:07 PM
That's because zuccarello is 5'7 170. Fine in the SEL. Not suited for NHL. Besides, he didn't win playoff MVP or break alfredssons playoff goal scoring record like Silfverberg.
- elguapo12 - Apr 23, 2012 at 6:51 PM
Murray sure can draft. Not so bad at making trades either.

More often than not when a management law firm informs its clients of recent case developments, the news is not good. This is an exception.
In a decision more in line with decisions from other circuits, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit recently decided a Computer Fraud & Abuse Act ("CFAA") case which offers significant assistance to employers' efforts to protect their trade secrets and confidential information from theft or misuse by employees, so long as employers do it correctly. The case was entitled U.S. v. Nosal, and a copy of the decision is available in pdf format below.
Case Background
David Nosal was a former employee of Korn/Ferry, an executive search firm. Nosal resigned his employment and convinced certain employees who were still employed by Korn/Ferry to provide him with information from the company's confidential Searcher database – considered by Korn/Ferry to be one of the most comprehensive databases of executive candidates in the world. Nosal was not authorized to access the Korn/Ferry database, and he did not do so. The currently employed individuals engaged by Nosal were authorized to access the Searcher database as part of their jobs, and they passed Searcher database information to Nosal.

Correction: Job Market-Vital Signs story
WASHINGTON In a story Sept. 7 about unemployment, The Associated Press incorrectly spelled Michael Mangum's name in the penultimate paragraph. A corrected version of the story is below:
The job market Fed faces: healing but still ailing
Job market's vital signs: Unemployment is down, but many US employers remain reluctant to hire
By PAUL WISEMAN
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - Just how sturdy is the U.S. job market?
That's the key question the Federal Reserve will face when it decides later this month whether to reduce its economic stimulus.
The answer depends on where you look.
The economy has added jobs for 35 straight months. Unemployment has reached a 4 1/2-year low of 7.3 percent. Layoffs are dwindling.
Yet other barometers of the job market point to chronic weakness:
The pace of hiring remains tepid. Job growth is concentrated in lower-paying industries. The economy is 1.9 million jobs shy of its pre-recession level - and that's not counting the additional jobs needed to meet population growth. Nearly 4.3 million people have been unemployed at least six months.
What's more, employers have little incentive to raise pay. Many unhappy employees have nowhere else to go.
Still, when it meets Sept. 17-18, the Fed is expected to reduce its $85 billion a month in bond purchases by perhaps $10 billion. Its purchases have helped keep home-loan and other borrowing rates low to try to encourage consumers and businesses to borrow and spend more.
Here's a look at the job market's vital signs as the Fed's decision nears:
The unemployment rate slid in August to 7.3 percent, its lowest level since December 2008. Unemployment had peaked in October 2009 at 10 percent and has since fallen more or less steadily. Since then, the number of people who say they have jobs has risen by 5.7 million. And the number of those who say they're unemployed has dropped by nearly 4.1 million.
That's the good news behind the tumbling unemployment rate.
But the rate has been falling, in part, for a bad reason: People are dropping out of the labor force. Once people without a job stop looking for one, the government no longer counts them as unemployed.
Some are retiring. Some are young adults who have chosen to go to college rather than brave a tough job market. Some have gone on disability. And some have given up the job search, discouraged by repeated rejections.
The percentage of people either working or looking for work - the so-called labor force participation rate - fell last month to a 35-year low: 63.2 percent. If the participation rate were at the pre-recession level of 66 percent, up to 6.8 million more people could be counted as unemployed. And the unemployment rate could be as high as 11.2 percent.
The 4 million-plus Americans who have been unemployed for six months or more are down from a peak of 6.7 million in April 2010. Yet before 2009, the United States had never seen long-term unemployment surpass 2.9 million, even during the deep recessions of the mid-1970s and early 1980s.

About Bottle Cages
Modern triathlon wetsuits were invented by Dan Empfield in 1987 and are customized to the needs of triathletes, they generally incorporate the following key features which differentiates them from a normal wetsuit. 1, Thinner and/or more pliable rubber near the shoulders. 2, Long zippers to facilitate quick removal during transition. In addition, tri wetsuits have a very smooth, but often fragile, surface. This slick surface helps to reduce water friction and allows a faster swim. Another advantage of a tri wetsuit is the added buoyancy that the wetsuit provides, this can provide triathletes with a considerable speed and energy saving advantage over swimming without a suit.

Kizomba is one of the most popular genres of dance and music originating in Angola.[1] It is a derivative of traditional Angolan semba with zouk and compas music from the French Caribbean Islands.[2] On this basis, Kizomba music emerged as a more modern music genre with a sensual touch mixed with African rhythm. Unlike Semba, Kizomba music is characterised by a slower and usually very romantic rhythm, sung generally in Portuguese.[3][4]

Origin and evolution[edit]
Kizomba – music genre[edit]
Kizomba music was born in Angola, Cape Verda, Mozambique, and Ginnea Bissau in the 1980s following the Tour of Kassav through Africa and abosrbs the influences of traditional semba and zouk and compas music from the French Caribbean islands. On this basis, Kizomba music emerged as a more modern music genre with a sensual touch mixed with African rhythm. Unlike Semba, Kizomba music is characterised by a slower and usually very romantic rhythm. Given that Angola is a former Portuguese colony, Portuguese is the principal language spoken in Angola and thus, also most Kizomba songs are sung in Portuguese. However, early Kizomba songs were sung in Kimbundu and in other national languages of Angola.[2]
Today, Cape Verdean singers have gained a wide popularity with many famous Kizomba compilations, including singers such as Suzanna Lubrano, Johnny Ramos, Nelson Freitas. As a matter of course, a lot of people are confused about the origins of Kizomba music and wrongly believe it comes from Cape Verde because of their important role in Kizomba music production today. Typical music styles from Cape Verde are funana, morna, coladeira and batuque. Thanks to the French Antilles compas music and the strong influence of Kizomba (from Angola), Cape Verdian singers could develop their own version of zouk (mixing it with coladeira) known as cabo love, cola-dance, cola-zouk, cabo-swing and ghetto zouk. Moreover, every lusophone country has developed its own Kizomba music flavour.[5]
Kizomba – dance genre[edit]
Kizomba is an evolution of the traditional dances of Angola semba, however, it is evident that kizomba dance as we know it today evolved after the vogue of kizomba music. Since the 1950s, Angolan people used to dance semba. This tradition remained unchanged even when the group Kassav from the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe came to perform zouk music in Angola in the 1980s. In the 1990s, when the actual kizomba music got more and more popular, Angolan semba dancers started to adapt their semba steps according to the tempo and flavour of the Kizomba/zouk beats.[2]
At the beginning of its development, Africans were dancing semba, and other dances at a slower tempo according to the beat of the Kizomba music. Technically speaking, semba danced romantically to Kizomba music is the basis of the Kizomba dance[6] There is a considerable difference between Kizomba "the music" and Kizomba "the dance»: Kizomba "the dance from Angola" has no zouk influences. Kizomba "the music" has zouk influences from Guadeloupe and Martinique.[7]
Confusions between zouk and kizomba[edit]
Confusions between zouk and kizomba arose after many Cape Verdean emigrants arrived in France where they were exposed to the French Antilles compas music "zouk-love" in the 80s, they mixed it with a traditional Cape Verde style, the coladera, creating the cola-zouk, which is very similar to kizomba and typically sung in Cape Verdean Creole. It is this rhythm that was confused with kizomba, and was heard in Portugal when Eduardo Paim arrived there and released his first record with kizomba music.[5]
Currently, in Lusophone (Portuguese speaking) countries and communities around the world, due to it being difficult to distinguish between zouk, cabo love and kizomba, all these styles have been called kizombas, however in a rough and generic way, one can say that Zouk is sung in French and Antillean creole, cabo love in Cape Verdean Creole and kizomba in Portuguese or kimbundu.
Some of the Festivals in which Kizomba plays a big part include Afrofever, Africadancar, Budapest Kizomba Connection, Batuke!, Estonia Tallinn Salsa Congress, Austria Vienna Sexy & Sensual Latin Festival, France, Germany, Bournemouth, Afro Cuban Salsa Festival Norfolk and Renaissance London.
Cultural influences[edit]
The influence of Angolan kizomba is felt in most Portuguese-speaking African countries, but also Portugal (especially in Lisbon and surrounding suburbs such as Amadora or Almada), where communities of immigrants have established clubs centered on the genre in a renewed kizomba style. Kizomba is now also quite popular among white people that come to these clubs in growing numbers. The São Tomean kizomba music is very similar to the Angolan, Juka being the most notable among the Sãotomeans, and also one of the most notable performers in the genre.
In Angola most clubs are based in Luanda. Famous Angolan kizomba musicians include Neide Van-Dúnem, Don Kikas, C4 Pedro, Calo Pascoal, Irmãos Verdades and Anselmo Ralph, among many others, but Bonga is probably the best known Angolan artist, having helped popularize the style both in Angola and Portugal during the 1970s and 1980s.
Kizomba is also performed in other lusophone African countries, in Europe and in the USA. It is known for having a slow, insistent, somewhat harsh, yet sensuous rhythm; the result of electronic percussion. It is danced accompanied by a partner, very smoothly, slowly and sensuously, and with neither tightness nor rigidity. There are frequent simultaneous hip rotations coordinated between dance partners, particularly in the quieter refrains of the music. Countries where kizomba is most popular include Angola, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, Portugal, Mozambique, Equatorial Guinea, São Tomé and Príncipe, East Timor, Brazil and the territory of Macau. Several individuals with a love of the Kizomba culture have been promoting it in other countries, such as Belgium and surrounding nations, where an independent Kizombalove academy has been created by José N'dongala.[citation needed]
Famous Angolan kizomba singers include Bonga, André Mingas, Liceu Vieira Dias, Neide Van-Dúnem, Don Kikas, Calo Pascoal, Heavy C., Puto Portugues, Maya Cool, Matias Damasio, Rei Helder, and Irmãos Verdades.
Kizomba has been in Australia since around 2008 but only from 2012 has it started to gain popularity, particularly in Sydney and Melbourne. More information on Kizomba in Sydney, visit Kizomba Australia Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/kizombaaustralia/?fref=ts www.bailarkizomba.com.au [1] or www.latindancecentral.com.au [2]. Kizomba Sydney Facebook [3]. More information on Kizomba in Melbourne, visit www.candeladance.com.au [4]. More information on Kizomba in Perth visit Danza Loca[5] or Kizomba Muxima[6] Kizomba arrived in Adelaide in 2012 with workshops by international instructors Helen Luu & Rob Lewis organized by Kizomba dancers Adelaide. This group continues to promote Kizomba with dance classes & a monthly social night @ the Caledonean hotel. Find them on Facebook. Absolut Kizomba has emerged as the premier Kizomba dance school in Adelaide offering weekly classes and socials. For information find Absolut Kizomba on Facebook.
Kizomba has been present in Belgium since 2006.
In Brazil the first artist to record Kizomba was Paul Mac.[8] But the style became known when the mainstream pop artist Kelly Key released the album No Controle, in February 3, 2015. Key left the dance-pop/R&B songs to introduce the kizomba in Brazil.[9] In an interview Key said she sought originality and new styles: "I'm running this responsibility of being predictable. I wanted to record Kizomba for 13 years! Now I feel mature and have knowledge of movement".[10]
Kizomba has been known in Estonia since around 2010 but it quickly gained popularity in 2011 when local danceschools and -teachers started to offer regular courses for the interested. In 2014, kizomba is easily one of the most popular styles among local afro and Latin dancers, along crossbody salsa (on1) and sensual bachata which were clearly dominant before. Kizomba's popularity in Estonia has been fast-growing and, so far, with a strong and lasting impact. It can be credited to Nemanja Sonero, DJ and international dance instructor living in Tallinn, who has taught kizomba there since 2011.[11]
Kizomba is increasingly growing in popularity in the Latin dancing community. It was introduced in 2012.
In the Netherlands Kizomba has gained popularity in the last 4 years.
Kizomba was introduced in Malaysia a few years back but it officially took off back in 2011. Currently Malaysia has the most popular Kizomba dance scene across Asia. Kuala Lumpur (KL) being the capital has the biggest Kizomba crowd followed by Penang (A Small island). One can request/find Kizomba being danced in almost any Latin Dance Clubs/Social Dance Nights in KL. More Information on Kizomaba in Malaysia Visit KizombaKL or Kizombada Kuala Lumpur
United Kingdom[edit]
Kizomba has been present in the UK for about 20 years with Afro-Portuguese parties organized as early as 1991 in various venues around London. It only started crossing over to the public from August, 2006 when Iris de Brito and Kwenda Lima presented a showcase to the public at Scala, a nightclub in London. Also, because of the number of Afro-Portuguese descendants living in Britain, Kizomba is increasing its popularity and clubs in London particularly, are playing Kizomba and hosting a series of events with Kizomba dance.
United States[edit]
Kizomba has been present in the US for several years and the first ever Kizomba Classes in the US started in 2010 at China Harbor – Seattle using the steps and teaching technique from the NELSON CAMPOS Instructional Kizomba DVD levels I & II, but has seen a pronounced uptick in popularity starting in 2012. Interest in kizomba is most prominent in larger urban areas. Hotspots include Boston, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, DC, various cities in Texas and Florida, Chicago, Minneapolis and Atlanta.

Best Buy, Target and Walmart are Gaining Ground Against Amazon with Consumers Who Conduct In-store Product Research with Their Mobile Devices and Later Purchase from Amazon
Down from 29% a year ago, only 20% of consumers who use a smartphone to research a product while at any retail store end up purchasing the item from an online-only retailer, according to a consumer perception study conducted by leading market research firm ClickIQ. The 9-percentage point drop from the same study conducted a year before indicates that retailers are doing a better job of combating the revenue loss from Showrooming.
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) February 22, 2013
Market research firm ClickIQ recently repeated a survey it conducted a year ago to U.S. consumers to ask them if and how their mobile devices play a part in their in-store shopping experience. The intent of both studies was to talk only to shoppers who used their mobile devices to research products while they were in the retail store and either then or later purchased the product. Both studies dug deeper to find out which retailers these technology enabled shoppers visited to research a product and where they eventually purchased the product. The respondents possibly visited more than one retailer but the studies show that the retailers most frequented for in-store research by these respondents both in 2012 and 2013 were Best Buy, Target and Walmart.
To find out what happened after the in-store research was complete, respondents were asked to state where they eventually purchased the product they were researching. Taking a look at these top three retailers and comparing the responses from 2012 and 2013, Best Buy, Target and Walmart each gained significantly in retaining the sale from Amazon.
Specifically, 35% of those that researched at Best Buy in 2012 ended up purchasing at the Best Buy store with another 14% purchasing at BestBuy.com. 21% of Best Buy in-store researchers purchased the product from Amazon. 2013 results show that Best Buy had the same percent of shoppers that researched in the store (35%) actually purchasing from the store, but lost sales from their website with only 3% purchasing from there. However, 2013 found that only 10% defected to Amazon vs. 21% from the prior year.
Of those that did their research at Target in 2012, 29% purchased at the Target store, 8% purchased at Target.com and 21% purchased from Amazon. 2013 data shows that Target did the best job retaining customers with a full 43% of in-store researchers making their purchase from the Target store, a significant increase over the 29% from the previous year. Where Target fell short was dropping from 8% who purchased at Target.com in 2012 to less than 1% in 2013. Even with that drop, Target gained back from its 21% loss to Amazon last year with a defection of only 13% this year.
Walmart also gained from in-store researchers who made the purchase in the store from 26% the previous year to 35% in 2013. Like Target, Walmart did lose some Walmart.com sales, dropping from 10% last year to 4% this year. Walmart is also doing a good job of combating defection to Amazon by decreasing its loss from 24% last year to 14% in 2013.
The 2013 study went a step beyond the prior year and asked those who had made their purchase online, either at the retailer´s website or another online website, how satisfied they were with their purchase. A whopping 94% of respondents indicated they were either "very" or "extremely satisfied." According to Robert Boese, ClickIQ V.P. Operations, "these high satisfaction ratings for online purchases show just what a challenge brick & mortar retailers have ahead of them."
2012 data was collected in an online survey from 3780 of ClickIQ´s U.S. consumer panel members from March 2, 2012 through March 8, 2012. 2013 data was collected in an online survey from 5543 of ClickIQ´s U.S. consumer panel from January 30 to February 7, 2013. Target respondents in both the 2012 and 2013 surveys must have shopped in a retail store within the past 3 months and also own a mobile device. 406 in 2012 and 1000 in 2013 were further qualified by stating that they used the mobile device while at a brick & mortar store to research a product and have since purchased the researched product. The survey results have margin of error of +/-5% at a 95% confidence level.
About ClickIQ
ClickIQ, Inc., based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is an award-winning market research firm that employs fully integrated online management tools, a proprietary consumer panel, and skilled market research analysts to deliver quantitative consumer and shopper insights to some of the best known and most respected companies across the U.S.

How to Become a Grief Counselor: Step-by-Step Career Guide
Research the requirements to become a grief counselor. Learn about the job description and duties, and read the step-by-step process to start a career in grief counseling.
Do I Want to Be a Grief Counselor?
Grief counselors, also known as grief therapists or bereavement counselors, are mental health professionals who specialize in helping patients cope with the loss of a friend, family member or pet. Grief counselors work one-on-one with patients throughout the mourning process and help them deal with the wide range of emotions that accompany the death of a loved one. Constantly working with others who are dealing with grief could cause negative reactions in some counselors.
Job Requirements
Nurses, physicians, ministers, psychologists, mental health counselors and funeral directors are among professionals who, with appropriate training, might qualify as grief counselors. The following table outlines common requirements to become a grief counselor:
|Common Requirements
|Degree Level
|Bachelor's degree is sufficient*; a graduate degree may be preferred or required in some cases**
|Degree Field
|Grief counseling, thanatology, grief therapy*
|Licensure and Certification
|Licensure requirements vary by state**, certification may improve career outlook*
|Key Skills
|Strong speaking and listening skills, compassion, empathy*
Sources: *American Academy of Grief Counseling, **Los Angeles County.
Step 1: Earn a Bachelor's Degree
Grief counselors must typically earn a degree in a relevant field, such as social services, psychology or counseling. Coursework in such fields may cover concepts like abnormal psychology, social psychology, behavior, family guidance or human services. An internship experience may also be required for such programs.
Success Tip
- Take communications courses. Communication is one of the most important elements of a grief counselor's job, so an aspiring counselor should hone his or her speaking and listening skills as much as possible. Taking communications courses while in college can help an aspiring counselor learn effective methods of communication.
Step 2: Earn a Master's Degree
This may not be mandatory in all situations, but certain employers and states may prefer or require that their grief counselors hold a relevant graduate degree. Master's degree programs with an emphasis in grief counseling may be offered in subjects like thanatology or gerontology. Graduate certificate programs in grief counseling may also be available as part of broader programs, such as a master's degree program in community health. Counseling education is also a field that is related to grief counseling.
Step 3: Obtain Licensure
While no specific license exists for grief counselors, some jurisdictions require professionals in this field to hold a state-issued license in a similar field. For example, Los Angeles County, California, requires grief counselors to hold a current license as a nurse, psychologist or counselor. The requirements vary widely by state, so aspiring grief counselors should consult with their local government agency to learn about any applicable licensure requirements they need to meet.
Step 4: Obtain Voluntary Certification
In order to be recognized as a specialist in death and bereavement counseling, an aspiring grief counselor should attend specialized certification training and certification program in the field. The American Institute of Health Care Professionals oversees the American Academy of Grief Counseling, which offers several training programs for aspiring grief counselors. Specialized programs include child and adolescent grief counseling and pet loss grief counseling. Upon completion of one of these programs, students will be certified as grief counselors. The Association for Death Education and Counseling (ADEC) also offers voluntary certification.
Step 5: Continue Education
Certified grief counselors must apply for recertification to maintain their status. Recertification requires paying a fee and logging a set number of continuing education hours approved by the certifying organization. Hours can come from a variety of areas, such as taking courses that help the grief counselor stay current on bereavement issues; attending seminars; writing or publishing on the subject of grief counseling; formally educating others or serving on committees. The goal of recertification is to keep grief counselors active and up to date within bereavement counseling, as well as to allow candidates to explore how to apply the training to their own interests and specific line of work.
Success Tip
- Consider a fellowship. After working as a certified grief counselor for three years, a counselor can attend a fellowship program offered by the American Academy of Grief Counseling. Fellowship status is awarded for taking additional continuing education courses involving complex topics such as multicultural mourning practices, mourning children and addressing the needs of the dying. Not only will the fellowship status contribute to a more specialized form of counseling, it will also provide candidates with even more insight as to how to be of service to those in need. A fellow in thanatology is available through the ADEC.

Is it worth it? A nearly free Albin Vega 27'

I'm 23, soon 24. The reason I have no savings and don't want to right now is because I wasted my younger years working full time and realized what a waste it is to spend my youngest most active/healthy years slaving away for the profit of someone else. It might be the responsible/adult style, but it's not my style.
I quit my decently paying full time job 2 years ago and moved to Japan and have been adventuring here ever since. I love it here but I want to go sailing and see some more of the world, and more of Japan. Buying a boat is better done in North America where prices are much cheaper. I'll sail whatever I buy back to Japan once it's ready. I'm willing to stick in one place for a few months if I need to save up a few grand but I'm not going to go back to the old grind, it's not for me.
As to why everyone keeps saying run away from this boat: Are there any specific reasons why? Details please. Not trying to be argumentative, it's just that I recall about 10 years ago I stumbled on an old salvaged power boat in similar shape, though the gelcoat crazing was not as widespread. Anyway I managed to restore that by myself, including a big hole in the fiberglass, and the boat as far as I know is still in use today.
What's so bad about this boat that I'm missing and everyone else is seeing? Dirt and bad paint make a boat look a lot worse than it is, I'm not seeing what everyone else is.
Keep in mind that this boat, while not quite free, is nearly so, and a Vega in poor to barely fair condition sells for 6-7000. A Vega in decent condition goes for over 10,000.
I had worked out the restoration costs like this. Everything will be DIY, there is no point in paying people to fix a boat this rough:
Sanding materials, solvents, clear or white gelcoat, bottom and topside paint, interior paint, antiskid paint: Approx $1,000 to $1,500 (This is realistic for materials, I priced it out online and allowed for 2gal of extra paint/waste)
New woodwork: Approx $1,000 materials cost. Decent but cheap marine plywood is good enough for me. White formica overlays. I think I will enroll in a college woodworking course to gain free access to the shop facilities, either that or get a job at a furniture manufacturer until the woodwork is done. A lot of the wood already in the boat is savable but needs new formica.
New through hulls, sink, stove, misc: $1,000 to $1,500. If I can find used stuff I'll take it.
New electrical: Not sure. Anywhere from $500 to $1500. Replacing the wiring can't be that expensive even with high metal prices these days, but you never know. $1500 max. I have some electrician friends who can help me out with this for a few cases of beer.
Sails: Don't know. I will need to buy used or make my own, new sails cost too much. I see heavyweight dacron on sale online for under 25$ a yard for 54" rolls. I used to work in the high end printing industry where we use material like that for heavyweight banners so I can probably get some dacron from my old suppliers for way cheaper than retail price. I also have a heavy duty sewing machine already and know how to use it, but I can handsew if my machine can't handle the material. The boat comes with the old sails so I can copy everything.
Engine: $500. If I can't rebuild the current engine cheaply I will look for a used similar engine for cheap, hey it happens. I can do all the engine work myself, rebuilding is not a problem. If I can't find a cheap inboard I'll haul it out and put on a small outboard. The boat actually has a bracket already but I don't like it so I'll get a friend to fabricate one if necessary. Beer payment for that.
Storage space: Surprisingly the most difficult hurdle. I'd love to bring it down to Florida where my family has some property but I can't work in the US (I'm Canadian) so it's no go. Similarly working in -20c weather in the Toronto winter is impossible. I'm still looking around for tall heated garage space that's not too expensive.
Anything I'm missing?

By Ted Sares, video coverage of Vazquez v Marquez I & II courtesy of Showtime: On March 1, with the super bantamweight supremacy at stake, boxing fans will be treated to the rubber match in what again promises to be an exciting, back-and-forth slugfest between two hard men. They will likely go to war with a total disregard for their wellbeing, and with a doggedness and uncommon determination that may well produce another Fight of the Year candidate. These two warriors are what machismo is all about. "The Final Confrontation" will be televised live on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING beginning at 9 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast). A serious nose injury-- a metabolic blockage--halted Vazquez in the first fight when he surprisingly retired after the seventh round even though he seemed in control..
