Letters to the Editor: 12.13.06
I am extremely delighted to hear that the CCISD trustees have considered the option of ditching the idea of hiring a search firm. This is about putting our heads together and making the right quality decisions. We have a dynamic interim leader. Scott Elliff has performed in a superb manner.
If you recall, just this past summer, we had some incidents at Ray High School, Carroll High School and Miller High School. Mr. Scott Elliff was personally involved in each incident. I like to see this kind of servant leadership. Let's utilize our skills and talents locally and save the funding for books and other areas that need desperate attention. I'm all for being fiscally responsible. Let's work smart and save us taxpayers' monies. I have been totally impressed and strongly believe that Scott Elliff is our man to lead CCISD.

Tax relief
The "dreadful situation" described by Chester Beshears in his "Still taxed" letter (Dec. 6) regarding his older brother's financial difficulties, happens too often to elderly persons in our community. This is because their fixed incomes shrink with rising costs of items necessary to their well-being, including their homes.
Many elderly homeowners have taken advantage of a Texas Property Tax Code option called " tax deferral." This allows homeowners 65 years or older to "postpone" paying current and delinquent property taxes as long as that person owns and lives in that home. This tax deferral may be accomplished by obtaining and signing an affidavit from their local appraisal district. During the referral period, taxes and interest of 8 percent will continue to accrue on the property, which is collected on the sale or transfer of the property to a new owner.
Interested persons should contact their appraisal district for more information. In Nueces County, the District is located at 201 N. Chaparral Street in Corpus Christi, or call 361-881-9978.

Sinking Arizona
Thank you, Caller-Times, for the recent articles about all our World War II heroes. The 65th anniversary of the surprise Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, "the day that will live in infamy," the activities at Sherrill Park, the Veterans band, the deterioration of the USS Arizona Museum, capped off by the article of one of the few remaining survivors of the infamous Bataan Death March. We owe our freedom to these heroes and we should never forget their sacrifices.
It was disheartening to read that the USS Arizona Memorial Museum at Pearl Harbor is sinking and may only have as few as two years of life left. The museum has served all Americans well as a symbol to honor the women and men who served with distinction during World War II.
Thanks again for the news articles, the memorial gatherings, and patriotic music that remind us that we live in the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Without a home
This season is a great time to reflect on the homeless. The Homeless Issues Partnership (HIP), helped by the city, county, and the Kenedy Foundation, continues to offer ways to build solutions for homelessness.
Recently, 52 community leaders heard updates by city and state advocates. Bravo to two brave women who shared their journey to overcome homelessness in Corpus Christi. Bravo to our collaborative and accessible services that helped them succeed.
At 7 a.m., Dec. 22, HIP will host its Homeless Memorial Sunrise Service at Kinney Street Park. Sadly, people die when hunger, shelter, illness, addictions, and opportunities to rebuild lives are ignored.
On Jan. 30, HIP will conduct a survey and count of the homeless. Information gathered will help us understand the number and characteristics of people sleeping in shelters, on the streets, or in other places not meant for human habitation. This will help us plan effective ways to address local needs and measure progress.
Support these free efforts with your time and participation. Get involved. Help stamp out homelessness today.
Amy Granberry
(Chair, the Board of Directors, HIP)
Guide to fish
We want to thank David Sikes, your Outdoor Sports writer for the service he has been providing to the Corpus Christi readers. In particular, we want to thank him for the great service and assistance he extended to us.
After we retired more than three years ago, we moved to Corpus Christi and bought a 22-foot boat for the first time in our lives. We were real rookies in the boating and fishing business and, as you can imagine, we almost ran aground several times in the shallow waters of the Laguna Madre.
After we contacted David, he gave us the names of two experienced guides who had recently retired. We met each of these gentlemen separately and they both had the patience to share some of their skills with us. Moreover, they took us to various safe and good spots we had no idea about, which we have been using and enjoying since. We were very much impressed and have been very grateful to these two gentlemen, and obviously to David who was very instrumental in resolving our problems and frustrations.
With staff like David, the Caller-Times will always have nothing but continued success with its readers. Once again, thanks to the Caller-Times and David Sikes for all the help they provide to the community.

With a monthly rent of 1900 yuan ($278) for two rooms, these luxury apartments are furnished with soft beds and come with a communal kitchen and solar-powered heater. One unit has been rented out to a musician couple.
Though currently seeing a loss on his investment, Huang is not concerned about profit.
"Because I'm a scientist, not a businessman, I wanted to demonstrate first my technical skills by constructing these capsule apartments," Huang told ABC News.
"In the beginning, I had trouble finding tenants, but once the apartments received so much media attention, all eight were rented out. I was contacted by reporters from China, Japan and America. With all this media attention, I feel like my technical skills have been sufficiently recognized by the public."
Huang's attention now shifts to securing investors. As Huang searches for funding to carry out the next phase of his designs, he faces skeptics who question the capsules' legality and marketability.
In an appearance on Qinghai television station's "One Million Giveaway" that aired on June 6, Huang presented his idea to a five-member panel of judges in the hopes of receiving 200,000 yuan ($29,278) to build 60 capsule apartments and start a company to manage his project.
Huang unveiled a miniature model and exclaimed that it would provide the perfect sleeping quarters even for Yao Ming, the Houston Rockets star from China and who at 7-feet, 6-inches tall is the tallest member of the National Basketball Association. Despite Huang's best efforts, the panel voted 3-2 to deny Huang funding.
Huang maintains that he holds the necessary patents and certificates to build his designs and will keep them within legal requirements. Supporters of Huang's designs in the Chinese blogosphere credit him with providing affordable housing to those in need.
"The capsule apartment helped me out of a financially difficult situation," Zhang told ABC News. "I feel that if they pass the market's test, and if their designs are determined to be safe, then society should support them."

"This is the first prospective, global randomized clinical trial sufficiently powered to provide conclusive data comparing DES and BMS in heart attack patients," continued Dr. Stone. "The findings from the HORIZONS AMI trial should have a major impact on how decisions are made regarding the use of drug-eluting stents in these high-risk patients during the early hours of a heart attack. This study provides much needed data, and the patients in this trial will be followed for five years to determine if these favorable results are maintained."
"Boston Scientific is proud to support this and other large clinical trials that provide the medical community with relevant data that can be used in combination with broader clinical judgment to develop optimal treatment strategies for challenging patient subsets," said Donald S. Baim, M.D., Chief Medical and Scientific Officer of Boston Scientific. "The HORIZONS AMI trial provides valuable insight into the benefits of the TAXUS paclitaxel-eluting stent compared to bare-metal stents, in this important high-risk AMI patient population."
One-year results from the HORIZONS AMI trial showed ischemia-driven TLR was reduced by 41 percent with DES compared to BMS (4.5% vs. 7.5%, p=0.002), with parallel reduction in ischemia-driven target vessel revascularization (TVR) among patients treated with DES (5.8% vs. 8.7%, p=0.006). Angiographic follow-up at 13 months was available for 910 DES patients (1,081 lesions) and 293 BMS patients (332 lesions), and showed a 56 percent reduction in the secon

Christopher Hitchens
|One of the
|And a dirty dozen more
Christopher Eric Hitchens (April 13, 1949 – December 15, 2011) was a chain-smoking, atheistic, foul-mouthed, British[1] drunken smartarse — what every self-respecting gentleman aspires to be! Hitchens was a self-identified antitheist and was known as one of the "Four Horsemen" in the New Atheist movement (along with Dawkins, Dennett, and Harris). He was the brother of Peter Hitchens and, until recently, the two had been estranged for many years.
Prior to his atheist activism, Hitchens was known for his criticism of the Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, Dubya (though for a while, he might have been his most noted atheist cheerleader), and Obama administrations. He was also known for his opposition to God. In fact, looking back on his 40-year career, there weren't many people Hitchens liked, except for George Orwell, Vaclav Havel and, once upon a time, Noam Chomsky and Che Guevara. And himself of course. Although Hitchens wasn't a socialist, he continued to call himself a Marxist[2] and he expressed sympathy for Karl Marx and felt his critiques of capitalism were fairly accurate.[3] Though applauded by many atheists for his vocal and uncensored criticism of religion, some of his views were controversial, for example his furious support for the War on Terror and interventionism in the Middle East, as well as his support of burqa bans.
He was 62 years old at the time of his death from pneumonia.[4] However, this age has been called into question due to missing transitional forms.
[edit] Views on religion
He was known for his views on atheism and other social issues on which he would hold forth eruditely and at length. He was also known for taking unusually provocative positions on various topics. He was initially a supporter of the Iraq War (something that hurt his standing with the left[5]), and had notoriously attacked Mother Teresa and Hanukkah for representing a triumph of religious orthodoxy over scientific and humanitarian advancement.[6][7] He also condemned former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger as a war criminal.
Formerly a Trotskyist of the Tony Cliff variety, Hitchens was the last Trotskyist convert to the right-wing- however, he denied the term neoconservative, stating that he wasn't a Conservative in any sense of the term. Like many other ex-Trotskyists, his opposition to Islam was one of the primary reasons for the switch in ideology.
As a result of his grievances with Islam, Hitchens has had a long standing feud with former British MP George Galloway, and participated in a debate with him on the subject of Islam. Galloway ended the debate with an ad hominem, calling Hitchens a "drink-soaked former Trotskyist popinjay." to which Hitchens replied "Only some of which is true."
His 2007 best-selling book God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything[8] proved to be a major work of what would become known as "New Atheism," seen as a more militant approach to dealing with religious matters. In it, he argued that religion, being the root of much tribalist and isolationist thinking, is irrational and dangerous to societies that aspire to freedom.
[edit] Criticism of Mother Teresa
One of Hitchens' earliest forays into the criticism of religion was his book The Missionary Position which argued that Mother Teresa of Calcutta gave substandard clinical treatment to many at her hospices and that her spirituality entailed a masochistic cult of suffering for Jesus often to the point where patients in her care were denied pain-relieving treatment. Hitchens further argued that much money donated to her charities was funneled to right-wing Catholic regimes around the world. He also held that her charities acted as a front for proselytizing and for promoting Catholic proscriptions against birth control. Hitchens found her views against birth control particularly odious given that she worked in India, a country wracked by poverty and overpopulation. A film documentary based on the book entitled Hell's Angel aired in the UK to a large television audience, but got virtually no exposure in the United States.
Mother Teresa was first promoted heavily in the Western world by Christian pundit Malcolm Muggeridge, with whom Hitchens found multiple occasions to quarrel.
[edit] Fighting Islamofascism!
Hitchens evolved from being largely a pacifist to being a believer in confronting what he considered evil and fascistic governments. This transformation was completed after 9/11 when he became a unrestrained advocate for war in the Middle East. This has reduced interest in his writings among some who might otherwise be interested in his books on atheism.
He believed that "Islamofascism" must be fought in every possible way including restricting the right to wear what one wants by banning the burqa. He argued that this is for security and the desire to protect women from overbearing men, and was not in any way an attempt to take away peoples' freedom — even though it negates more than two different interpretations of the US Constitution's First Amendment: religious freedom, free speech as applied to dress, and freedom of association.[9]
In 2008, Hitchens volunteered to be waterboarded so as to write about it from experience. It was performed by experts in torture and torture resistance from SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape). He lasted only 17 seconds. He reaffirmed his position that waterboarding is torture, and is both immoral and ineffective, and furthermore opens the doors to American prisoners being tortured by others.[10]
[edit] Criticism by religious moderates
Non-fundie religious commentators have often noted that Hitchens attributes the positive elements of some Christian individuals and organizations to humanism rather than to Christianity. In particular, in God is not Great, Hitchens argues that Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Martin Luther King are not really Christians, noting that King never advocated divine punishment for his opponents and derived much of his thinking on non-violence from Gandhi, a non-Christian source. In a televised debate with his brother, Peter Hitchens, the latter argued this was essentially a no-win scenario for Christianity. Others similarly concluded that Hitchens has too narrow a definition of religion which then enables him to condemn it as universally toxic.[11] So far, none of these critics have accused Hitchens of engaging in the No True Scotsman fallacy, but this exact phrase circulates more frequently among rationalists.
Chris Hedges, for whom Hitchens was occasionally mistaken, has made similar criticisms, as well as denouncing his support for the Iraq War. Hedges' criticisms are heavily focused on the notion that evil does not originate per se mainly in religion, rather religion provides a secondary post hoc rationalization for evil. Hedges and Hitchens debated these issues in Berkeley, California in 2007.[12] At this debate, when the two quarreled over the motivations of suicide bombers, Hitchens angrily accused Hedges of making excuses for suicide bombers, suggesting that Hedges condoned their actions. Hedges has also accused Hitchens and Sam Harris of the same divisive rhetoric as religious extremists.
Hitchens has also been criticized for his inconsistency with ethical questions in debates. What standard does he appeal to when he says that Christians aren't good? Most of his arguments would just point out moral hypocrisy. He'd appeal to a type of theistic ethics to make moral criticism of theism, he'd want the moral high ground, so he'd use moral rhetoric to appeal to a larger audience.
[edit] "Views" on other topics
[edit] Abortion
Hitchens self-identified as "pro-life"[13] and made several statements expressing a personal opposition to abortion during his lifetime. For example, in a 1989 piece in The Nation, he wrote:
""I have always been convinced that the term 'unborn child' is a genuine description of material reality. Obviously, the fetus is alive, so that disputation about whether or not it counts as 'a life' is casuistry. The same applies, from a materialist point of view, to the question of whether or not this 'life' is 'human.' What other kind could it be? As for 'dependent,' this has never struck me as a very radical criticism of any agglomeration of human cells in whatever state. Children are 'dependent' too. […] Anyone who has ever seen a sonogram or has spent even an hour with a textbook on embryology knows that the emotions are not a deciding factor. In order to terminate a pregnancy, you have to still a heartbeat, switch off a developing brain, and, whatever the method, break some bones and rupture some organs.[14]
He reiterated these arguments in a 2006 World Magazine interview, stating "I've looked at sonograms," and "the concept 'unborn child' seems to me to be a factual statement."[15] In his 2007 book God Is Not Great, he argued, "As a materialist, I think it has been demonstrated that an embryo is a separate body and entity, and not merely […] a growth on or in the female body."
In a 1990 article in the Washington Times, he stated, "I can't think of a single circumstance in which I'd favor emptying a woman's uterus."[14] He later acknowledged in God Is Not Great that "[t]here may be many circumstances in which it is not desirable to carry a fetus to full term," citing the occurrence of spontaneous abortions (i.e. miscarriages) and arguing that "sad though this is, it is probably less miserable an outcome" than an increased number of children born with severe birth defects.[14]
However, Hitchens was opposed to overturning of Roe v. Wade,[13] and voiced support for a legal right to choose despite his personal misgivings with abortion in a 1991 interview in Mother Jones:
""There is, in my opinion, no choice but choice. There is no way of avoiding the choice position. What I said was that conditions could be created by politics, by actual state intervention, if you will, where people might wish to exercise that choice less, and that would be a good thing. That there should be, therefore, a presumption in favor of the unborn. But if that fails, obviously you can't push it to the point of saying, 'We will force you to carry a child to term.' Everything in one revolts against that.[16]
[edit] Women
Hitchens wrote a piece in 2007 in Vanity Fair in which he seriously advanced the view that women are generally less funny than men.[17] He argued that men have evolved better senses of humor than women because "the chief task in life that a man has to perform is that of impressing the opposite sex," while "women have no corresponding need to appeal to men in this way," since "they already appeal to men, if you catch my drift."[17] He wrote that "male humor prefers the laugh to be at someone's expense, and understands that life is quite possibly a joke to begin with," in contrast to women, who, "bless their tender hearts, would prefer that life be fair, and even sweet, rather than the sordid mess it actually is."[17] He claimed that "reproduction is, if not the only thing, certainly the main thing" for women, and that this "imbues" women with "the kind of seriousness and solemnity at which men can only goggle" (or, in other words, makes them humorless sticks-in-the-mud, especially during pregnancy).[17] He also claimed that women are more likely to put stock in superstitious and/or sentimental beliefs and practices because they are "partly ruled ... by the moon and the tides."[17] While he offered zero evidence, he must have been talking about the same intervals seen in the woman's menstrual cycle and the Moon cycle. Unless he was joking of course.
In a 2010 interview with Australian television host Jennifer Byrne, Hitchens remarked that "most men are pretty hopeless when newborn bundles arrive," and are so impressed by how "women appear to know what to do [that] they think, 'Well, I'll go and do extra work and make some money.'"[18] When Byrne noted that women can also be breadwinners, Hitchens replied, "I'm not having any woman of mine go to work," then added, "No, they don't need to work. They can if they like but they don't have to."[18] He also stated that women are "called the gentle sex for a good reason" and expressed a wish not to see women "coarsened in the labour market."[18]
Many Islamic clerics agree.
But it would be not quite right to project quotes of this kind into naked misogyny; Hitchens did refer on numerous occasions and in various contexts to " the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction."[19][20][21][22]
[edit] Broadcasts
In 1988 Hitchens contributed to a collection of published essays titled Blaming the Victims: Spurious Scholarship And The Palestinian Question. His essay, "Broadcasts," explored the assertion of the Israeli establishment that 750,000 Palestinian Arabs evacuated Palestine in compliance with orders issued by their own religious and administrative leaders. Hitchens argued that this assertion lacks evidence of any such broadcast and that the Palestinian Arabs were, in fact, forced to flee from a number of their major population centers by the Israel Defense Force (IDF). Hitchens concluded his essay in a pessimistic tone by speculating that "Even though nobody has ever testified to having heard them, and even though no record of their transmission has ever been found, we shall hear of these orders and broadcasts again and again."
[edit] Cancer
Unfortunately, smoking frequently does not come for free, and Hitchens had to undergo treatment for cancer of the esophagus. If you prayed for him, he'd kick your ass.[23] He died in December 2011 due to complications related to the cancer.[4]

Al Harrington calls on Adrian Peterson's therapist
Wizards need to hold each other accountable
The one bright spot for the Wizards in this three-game losing streak is Al Harrington, who was getting up shots well after practice ended Monday at Verizon Center. He has only played seven games since pain in his troublesome right knee eventually led him to surgery last month but he's hoping the rehabilitation program developed by physical therapist Russ Paine, who aided Adrian Peterson in his miraculous comeback from a knee ligament tear for a 2,000-yard rushing season in the NFL, will pay off.
"It's been good. It's positive. I don't have pain in my knee right now. I feel like I'm going in the right direction with being cautious with it," Harrington said in his first interview after a Dec. 9 procedure to remove loose particles from his right knee. "They don't want me to rush back out there and neither do I. When I get back out there this time I want to be able to finish the season strong."
Harrington said he wasn't aware his knee issue was serious enough to need surgery until he had an MRI in Vail, Colo.
RELATED: [Marcin Gortat: 'We embarrassed ourselves']
"That's when I found out its a little bit more serious than I had thought and that we had thought here," he said.
Harrington, who last played Nov. 12 and was averaging 7.9 points off the bench, isn't cleared for contact and did his rehab program in Houston with Paine. He's still doing the program here.
"I have a timetable in my head but I don't really want to say it in case I don't reach it," Harrington said about his return. "I'm trying to get out there sooner than later. I'm definitely going to get back on the court. For sure."
If he can get back by the All-Star break in mid-February for a late push into the postseason, the Wizards (14-17) will take it.

This is the sob story thread for those who have to miss OD this year.
As for myself, I'll be in class until 5:25. Might get to see a bit of the parade at lunch, and should be home by 6 to catch the end of the game, but usually OD is a big holiday for me. Parents would let me skip high school classes for it, but not college. No, no.
But that said, I'm sure there are those who have to miss the whole game, or have had to for years, so please, commiserate here.
And, oh, Happy Easter, Redszone!

text: 000 FXUS63 KSGF 041746 AFDSGF AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 1246 PM CDT Sat Jul 4 2015 ...18z Aviation Update... .SHORT TERM...(Today through Sunday) Issued at 250 AM CDT SAT JUL 4 2015 The frontal boundary that has been plaguing the area for the last week or so has finally pushed a bit south of the region this morning, as a mid level shortwave rotates through the area. This is allowing somewhat drier air to filter into the area early this morning, with dewpoints falling into the low to mid 60s, under clearing skies. Other than some patchy fog early this morning, today looks to generally be a quiet weather day across the region. A very isolated shower/thunderstorm or two may be possible this afternoon across the higher/more complex terrain along the Arkansas state line, but the vast majority of the day should be dry. Winds today will be out of the southeast, with highs in the mid 80s. A warm advection zone across the I-35 corridor in southern Kansas and central Oklahoma should start to light up with a few thunderstorms late tonight, with convection then shifting into the western portions of the forecast early tomorrow morning. Convection will likely be weakening as it moves into the area, with much of the activity dissipating by late morning as the low level jet weakens. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Friday) Issued at 250 AM CDT SAT JUL 4 2015 The first part of the day on Monday is currently looking dry for most areas, before rain/thunderstorm chances increase substantially heading into the afternoon and especially evening hours as a front starts to approach from the north. That front will make slow progress into the area Monday night, slowing and possibly stalling out across the region as the upper level flow becomes more zonal. Both the GFS and ECMWF suggest the potential for heavy rain Monday night and Tuesday with this feature, with model simulations suggesting PWATs increasing well above climatological averages for this time of year. The ECMWF is particularly bullish with QPF, as it brings a stronger surface wave along the front compared to the GFS. Either scenario, however, is of concern given very saturated soils and lake and stream levels running high. While perhaps a bit early to talk specific amounts, right now it appears that widespread rainfall amounts in excess of 2 inches will be possible through Wednesday. Along with the rain potential, Tuesday and Wednesday look to be rather cool given precipitation and abundant cloud cover. Highs both days may only reach the mid 70s. The front will start to wash out across the area by Thursday, and perhaps try to return north as a weak warm front as an upper level ridge begins to translate east and strengthen over Texas/Southern Plains. This should spell a warming trend heading into next weekend, with temperatures possibly returning to around 90 by next Friday. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday Afternoon) Issued at 1246 PM CDT SAT JUL 4 2015 Generally, VFR conditions are expected through the period. There may be MVFR skies at times and perhaps an isolated shower near the BBG terminal, however, didn`t highlight given the relatively low potential for either. Skies should begin to clear overnight at all aerodromes. That will open up an opportunity for fog at BBG again Sunday morning. At this point decided to go the conservative route and kept it in MVFR conditions, however, if winds indeed calm and skies clear...IFR conditions cannot be ruled out. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

Opensuite Integrates Applications
Open Source service provider Corratech recently released Opensuite, a platform for the integration of heterogeneous enterprise applications.
The new Open Source project is looking to integrate a number of free (OSS) and proprietary applications with ongoing business processes and to integrate existing data with larger-scale IT systems. This will make it easier for both users and administrators to work with and manage programs by different vendors.
Corratech describes the concept as a virtual software suite that provides the glue to help tie various programs together. The company promises corporate users lower support and maintenance costs. Corratech says that what sets it aside from similar projects is that other Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) projects simply provide interfaces that other applications can dock onto. In contrast to this, Opensuite takes a service-oriented approach provides a middleware platform on which software developed independently will work as if it was part of an integrated suite. From the user's point of view this means single sign-on, and the ability to toggle between various applications.
Opensuite looks to integrate enterprise-level applications such as Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Ressource Planning (ERP), document management and project management. The software provides building blocks for business processes, referred to the manufacturer as Business Process Packs, that reflect workflows and provide functionality to match.
The first Business Pack links email, and document access functionality with matching accounts on the CRM system, and includes single sign-on technology. Opensuite provides integrated support for the free CentricCRM, the commercial KnowledgeTree document management system, the free Openbravo ERP system and the free Zimbra groupware.
Corratech will be maintaining its newly founded Open Source project itself, and looking to launch a community. Opensuite is available under the GPL v3 and available for downloading from the project homepage.

Overhaulin Bel-Air on EBAY

7 days build time is for the public because their attention span is usually pretty short. However, this type of build generally never actually makes it into the public's realm. And selling it on eBay at this price is really a crime!
I like how Monster Garage stuff actually disappears from the public view 'cause it's usually fairly dangerous and poorly built. However, it does have something Overhauling doesn't and that's ATTITUDE!
Most viewers who watch the Overhauling show think that these cars are just as cool and well built as anything they see at Oakland or Seattle auto show! Sadly that is not the case and usually the bondo is put on right over the rust and the paint is barely dry when the "builders" receive their new toolboxes!
The coolest car I ever saw built up on Overhauling was a '26 T built by the "Shifters" car club. No pretentious designs and no builder in-fighting, just a neat vintage rod built the old fashioned way.
Now that was pretty neat!!!!
Posted 16 June 2006 - 08:20 PM
Is it my imagination or does this car look similiar to christopher Titus's 56
Might be Chips influence

Umm, Jairus.... the builders on MONSTER GARAGE get toolboxes. The builders on OVERHAULIN get a warm & fuzzy feeling :wink:
Although overpriced, that `56 is still a sweet ride. And what isn't overpriced these days. How about a `70 `Cuda rag top :shock:
Posted 17 June 2006 - 04:29 AM
Foose also had a hand in Titus' tv show. A technical adviser or some such,,,I'd have to look at the credits again.
Your right Steve, Foose was involved with the Titus show, which was one of the funnier sit-coms to never make it on TV... When ever they showed a shot of the shop or living room on Titus there were Foose drawings on the walls.
Posted 17 June 2006 - 04:35 AM
I bet if you talked to most of the builders who worked on the '56, to a man, they would suggest one or two things that they would have liked to do differently with their part of the car if they had more time!
Posted 17 June 2006 - 05:14 AM
Ok, I might have been wrong on a couple of points but I stand by my basic premise. You cannot build a decent custom car in 7 days no matter how many people you have working for you. Even in Boyd's shop! It takes a real craftsmen TIME to look at his work and make adjustments day by day in order to get it right. I NEVER finish a drawing the same day that I start it because you see things through different eyes after a good nights sleep. Most of the builders on shows like Overhauling, Pimp and whatever, have to perform at turbo speed while the camera is on them. They have to produce the part and that's it! Little chance to make changes after a good nights sleep...
I bet if you talked to most of the builders who worked on the '56, to a man, they would suggest one or two things that they would have liked to do differently with their part of the car if they had more time!
While it is true, that the cars on this show aren't up to normal "Pro Built show car standards" , I have seen a few of these cars in person, and can attest that these are far and away better built than most well built ameture customs. while many of these have small areas where they might lose points in a judged car show, 100% of the time these cars leave the shop far cooler, and safer than they arrived.
On many boards I hear people say that you can't build a car in 7 days, and that these are POSs that are just "slapped together". Having a team of 30 or so people each with a specific job, using proven parts & techiques you can do it. Keep in mind that most nascar race cars are built in not much more time. The trick to how foose does this is, you will notice that he rarely pushed the envelope as far as modifications.
Most of the mods to these cars involve bolt on parts, or body mods he and his crew have done a hundred times over. 90% of the time he uses pre-built crate engines and trannies, Bolt-on suspension mods, bolt-on brake upgrades, and most of these parts are often installed and set up but the people who designed and built them. How many times have you heard things like "Here are the guys from Magna flow to install the exhaust" or "here are the guys from Baer Brakes to install the brakes" Most of the work done on these cars are done by experts in their field who know the pitfalls and potential problems they face.
The reason they are able to do a car in 7 days where most pro's wouldn't be able too, is because they are a TV show they have access to people and support that most shops don't. try to get Art Carr to come to your garage to install the tranny some time. It's not just that they have 30 people working on the car but they always have thirty of the most experiences builder working on the car.
He can get it done because he is Chip Foose, with a national TV show, and has access to all tyhe best help. You or I wouldn't be able to do it in seven days, nor would most pro's. It's all about having access and experience, and also knowing the limitations of the time table. You will notice that everytime he pushed the envelope he went over, but he was willing to blow the deadline to do it right.
Posted 17 June 2006 - 07:07 AM
As for Pimp My Ride... Theres a tri-five Chevy here in town... after a few months, you can already see the paint starting to bubble. Don't get me started on how bad that show is...
I, for one, think Foose is one of the best designers around... just look at his Ridler and AMBR wins! I'd also love to have my 64 Galaxie cv on Overhaulin', but I don't think thats gonna happen!
Posted 17 June 2006 - 10:43 AM

Another Steve I agree with! Chip & Co. can steal (any one of...) my cars and do as he pleases with it. I don't care if it's the `04 GTI or the `68 Barracuda, or either one of the ######-box beater Nissans we own.
And anyone whom even acknowledges "Pimp my ride" exisits ......

Heck, we can't even build a decent model in seven days.
Wrong, a few of the ACME members including myself just built models from start to finish during the 24 Heures Du Mans. If I say so myself, they look pretty ###### nice for 20 hour builds with no sleep.
I'm not even going to get started on the Foose topic.
Posted 18 June 2006 - 01:20 PM
I don't think their is any way possible to build a quality car in seven days. Heck, we can't even build a decent model in seven days. I think Foose has gotten himself blown up way out of proportion. I'm not saying he's not good at what he does but, he's not God.
Rex Murphy
All I'm saying is I have seen some of the cars and talked to some of the owners, and these are nice cars. not to mention these cars get fully worked over and tuned well after the seven days build so technically Day these aren't "7 Day Builds"
Posted 19 June 2006 - 08:56 AM
Posted 30 June 2006 - 05:53 AM
Foose's credentials speaks for themselves.He isn't about to put his carrier in jeopardy over a bunch of incompetently build t.v. cars.
Is this particular car desirable?To some it is.I would take anything build by Foose!From the photos provided, I don't see anything wrong with it.The rough trunk could possible be from use.It was built for someone to drive on a daily basis, so I would not be so quick to critisize any questionable flaws.
Just my 2 pennies worth.

somebody never watch the overhaulin show have they? watch it and tell us when the body work is done. where did new metal come from? did the rust make it?
They get most of the new sheetmetal from OPG, as they did the new trunk for the 66 Lemans convertible on the episode I watched last night.
Heres what gets me. these guys get Overhauled because someone recognizes how much they love their old beaters and the fact that they will never be able to finish it the way they want. Friends and family who love and care for this person collaborate to give them this really great gift, and in appreciattion they turn around and sell it on Ebay. Too me thats a slap in the face.

Posted 02 August 2006 - 12:53 PM
I remember that one now, you are right Ken in this case its not such a bad thing. I should have read the details of the auction
This one was not a family car. It was a car donated to Wyo-tech and then overhauled and presented to the main teacher to show appreciation by his students. The episode was a couple of years ago, so my memory is a bit faded. I don't know if the car was given to the teacher by the school or if the school retained ownership. So I don't think that auctioning it off to create a scholarship program is in poor taste. The people who do have their family do it out of a gesture of love and then sell it on ebay need a reality check...

Smart water: Indian success story foretells market growth
Quick Take: Market research firms are beginning to record steady growth in the market for smart water meters. We believe the sector -- long poised for rapid expansion -- is finally nearing a tipping point. And we think stories like the one below will be the reason why.
When Itron meters were installed in Mumbai, India's largest city, they cut water losses by an astonishing 50%. That's the kind of savings and rapid payback that can't be ignored. Yes, Mumbai's situation was especially egregious, but world water loss averages 34% worldwide, according to Itron. Even the best systems lose 10% to leaks -- leaks that can be spotted remotely once smart meters are in place. - Jesse Berst
In an interview with Bloomberg, Marcel Regnier, Itron's chief operating officer for water, said the smart water meters were installed to improve the system that supplies tap water to Mumbai. As it was, he said, the system only managed to provide water to about half the city's 13 million residents for a few hours a day and to the other half not at all. He indicated about 50% of the city's potable water was lost prior to the smart meter deployment.
The metering helped the Mumbai utility find leaks and discourage waste so more residents could get water.
"The target was, with the same level of resource and the same capital investment, to provide water to a larger portion of the population," Regnier said.
Itron officials note they've seen similar water savings in Africa.
"If you're able to meter the product and charge a fair price for it, a very low price but a fair price, it gives the utility enough return on their investment that they can develop more lines and capacity," Itron CEO Philip Mezey said in the Bloomberg story.
Are you also seeing signs that the smart water meter sector will soon accelerate? Use the Comment form below.

Hill Climb Racing
Meet Newton Bill, the young aspiring uphill racer. He is about to embark on a journey that takes him to where no ride has ever been before. With little respect to the laws of physics, Newton Bill will not rest until he has conquered the highest hills up on the moon!
Face the challenges of unique hill climbing environments with many different cars. Gain bonuses from daring tricks and collect coins to upgrade your car and reach even higher distances. Watch out though - Bill's stout neck is not what it used to be when he was a kid! And his good old gasoline crematorium will easily run out of fuel.
- Lots of different vehicles with unique upgrades (many different vehicles: bike, truck, jeep, tank, etc.)
- Upgradeable parts include engine, suspension, tires and 4WD
- Numerous stages with levels to reach in each (Countryside, Desert, Arctic and the Moon! +++)
- Share your score with a screenshot with your friends!
- Cool graphics and smooth physics simulation
- Designed to look good on low resolution and high resolution devices (incl. tablets)

0. Updating the game
- Your cars and money are saved on your device. DO NOT EVER uninstall the game before updating, or you will lose ALL of your stuff.
1. Racing
- Launch and shift when the dashboard indicator turns blue or green
- If there is too much wheelspin, you are not going anywhere - watch the orange indicator on your dashboard
- Once you learn how to drive properly, ignore the lights and find your own winning strategy
- Nitrous is more effective on underpowered cars with lots of grip. Timing is crucial!
2. Cars and upgrades
- Test drive before you buy a car!
- The more your car costs, the tougher opposition you'll face both offline and online
- Upgrades count towards increasing car cost/level, while tuning doesn't
- Keep your car cost just under your level cap to get an advantage
- Adjusting gear ratios (Garage -> Upgrade -> Tune) is costly, but lets you achieve times that are impossible on stock settings
3. Game modes and winnings
- Race against beginner/amateur AI to get some quick cash and build your car
- Defeat bosses and unlock achievements for extra RP
- Go online and race against others to earn maximum cash/RP
- If your car isn't ready for online races, earn some cash in "Drivers Battle"
- For the ultimate challenge, race against top players in Pro League
4. Misc
- Like http://facebook.com/DragRacingGame for news and strategy
