Essay - Consumer Behavior (Marketing) the Role that Personality and Motivation Play...
Consumer Behavior (Marketing)
The Role that Personality and Motivation Play in Consumer Behavior: A Case Study of Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC)
In today's information-oriented society, research and development, particularly information research, has become an important activity for business companies, institutions, and organizations, who want to know more about the consumer market, people ***** consider consumption as embedded ***** part of their everyday lives. Initially, commercialism of goods and services through advertising mainly focused on extant products and ***** that people need; nowadays, persuasive messages are extended through advertising, in*****ming people about the ***** ***** services that they should and ought ***** know and buy for themselves.
***** these products ***** services ***** persuasive advertising messages, however, ***** the products of advertising *****. More specifically, consumer research tries to identify not only the socio-demographic, but also psychographic profile of consumers, understanding how people can be persuaded to buy a company's product or service. Consumer research looks into the motivations and personalities of an individual in terms ***** consuming or buying a ********** product or service, later turning this inf*****mation into strategies geared at gaining a particular segment of ***** market that the company targets or centers on.
This paper discusses in detail ***** role that motivation and personality plays in influencing consumer behavior, taking the case ***** the ***** and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) as an example to discuss ***** analyze ********** ***** points. In this paper, an analysis of the print ads of HSBC is analyzed, relating its features ***** identify its target market and perceived motivations and personalities of HSBC's target market. Th***** study aims to provide an illustration of ***** motivation *****d ***** analysis of *****s are vital to the understanding ***** consumer *****s and behavior.
***** Personality ***** Motivation as illustrated in HSBC Pr*****t ads
The ***** ***** and personality may seem familiar for people, but its significance ***** ***** behavior is less known, yet incre*****ingly essential in identifying, determining, and ***** insights regarding ***** patterns and preferences.
Personality is defined by Sheth et. al. (1999) as "[a] person's consistent w*****ys [sic] of responding to the environment in which he or s***** live*****" (G-11). Personality, he states, is created through the combining of external influences or the social environment and genetic or biological traits of the *****. The combination of social with the individual results to the creation or development cus*****mer ********** consumer personality may be product- or service-*****iented, or both (243). Product-*****iented consumers tend to patronize a product or service b*****sed on the merch*****ise itself, while service-oriented ***** tend ***** "seek relationships" ***** the seller, producer of the service or manufacturer of the product.
Motivation, meanwhile, is identified as "an inner drive that reflects goal-oriented arousal" (*****rnould et. al., 2004:259). It differs from ***** in that it ***** a deeper *****nd more abstract concept, although similar to it in the sense that motivations ***** ***** l*****ked ***** the social environment and ***** traits of the individual.

New England folk trio Low Lily will be releasing their debut EP this week, and as you can hear on the new track "The Girl's Not Mine", the trio of Lissa Schneckenburger, Liz Simmons, and Flynn Cohen have an incredible knack for putting a little pop twist on a traditional folk/Americana sound.
Latest Blog Posts
Two years after releasing their very promising debut EP, Olney, Texas blues/rock/soul band Love & the Zealous are at work on a new follow-up. In the meantime, though, they made a stop at the solar-powered mobile recording studio Jam in the Van and proceeded to lay down a somber yet bruising cover of otis redding's classic "Dock of the Bay".
With its Can-derived krautrock groove, wicked stoner rock guitar riff, slight hint of funk, and washes of keyboards weirdly similar to chillwave, Montreal band Wizaard shows one and all on their new single "Mountain of the Underground" that there's no limit to what they'll try. Besides, with a combination like that, how can you not dig it?
A mix of pop, folk, and a twee, very English interpretation of country music, London trio Honey Ryder have a couple top 40 UK singles under their belts as well as several British Country Music Award nominations (yes, there is a British Country Music Awards). However after collaborating with several top writers in Nashville and recording with producer Paul Worley (Dixie Chicks, Lady Antebellum) they have their sights set on becoming that extremely rare British country act to crack the US market.
Hailing from Upstate New York, Winston Dunlop and Michael Diaz met in the fifth grade, bonded over their love of Animal Collective and Joy Division, started to make music, eventually discovering early King Crimson on the way to writing and recording their debut full-length album. So their bio says, anyway.

How strong the characters were, and it didn't seem to unbelievable. This happens everyday. So heartbreaking.
It was an edge of your seat kind of book. It was hard to stop listening.
No, but that would be my only complaint about the book. She wasn't horrible, but they could have chosen someone a little better for this good of a book.
"I live you"
This was a very emotional book. Make sure you have a box of tissues!
I've always been a avid reader so now I'm a avid listener. I prefer the paranormal genre but I do like to switch things up. It's boring if you don't have variety. Of course I do love the romance and the hotter the better. Also, you can't beat a good thriller filled with suspense and a ending you can't even guess at until the very end.
"Sad, realistic story"
Not a listen thats going to bring your spirits up but it's based on the reality that some people have to face. I think it's well written. A good testament to the amazing strength of the human spirit and the will to survive. In my opinion it's worth a credit, It doesn't contain much sexual content, most by implication, instead of being graphic.
"So Good"
I put off reading this book because even though it got great reviews because I thought it was going to be depressing. There were emotional some scenes but it was a great story! (Not too depressing) I definitely recommend. It is one of the best books I've read in quite a while. I average about 2 books a week.
"Emotional roller-coaster with excellent narration"
This book had me laughing, crying, being incredibly angry, and incredibly happy. I usually don't enjoy stories that are like that too often but this one was really amazing. The narrorator was exceptional, I think she really made the story. Highly recommended, but be warned, this is not your typical love story!
"Amazing, I didn't want it to end!"
I love the mystery in this book and how everything unfolds. I love Holder the best first love any young girl could ask for. Even though I figured out a few things before they actually happened. When they were confirmed I wasn't disappointed. Amazing book, I laughed, cried and gasped with surprise all the way through!
Just when I knew the plot there was another twist. In all honestly it was one of my favorites! Defiantly listen or buy this book!!
Too busy to read as much as I'd like, Audible is the perfect solution. I'm a romance reader mostly, but can stray into any story.
"How does she do it?"
Every single time... I'm amazed by Colleen's ability to build a story and create this layered, intense, emotional ride that I don't want to get off of.
There is no way to give you a synopsis without spoilers, so I will just tell you that you need to give a listen. It's worth the credit, the money... Whatever you have to do.
If I don't answer your call its because I'm totally in love with this audiobook!
Thank you Colleen Hoover for redeeming yourself with this book! I absolutely adored it...despite the heavy disturbing subject matter!! A beautifully written story!
"Holder and Hope"
This book is truly amazing! The narrator did a great job! Colleen Hoover wrote such an amazing story! I loved everything about this audio book!
Avid reader, blogger, compulsive one-clicker, genre-omnivore.
"Dark and hearbreaking story"
When I first read Hopeless, I think it became my favorite Colleen Hoover story, because it is so very deep, and so very gritty, and my emotions were all over the place because Sky and her past were unraveling so very slowly. And I adored both Sky and Holder, and I was fond of Six, too, even if she didn't stay for the whole story. Listening to the audiobook brought all my feelings from Hopeless even more to the surface! I was crying two rivers on the bus one day on my way to Uni, and I would have much rather stayed on the bus all the listening to the story than going to class.
Angela Goethals narrates Hopeless beautifully, the characters' anguish shines through in her voice, her inflections brought the point across a little differently from when I read the story on my own. I also love her voice, it is very agreeable to listen to, and the speed at which she narrates fits the story perfectly.
When the really difficult parts of the story arrived, I was almost amazed the narrator wasn't crying along with me, but she still managed to share emotions in the way she told me the hard truths of Hopeless.
I just realized that my first three audiobook reviews are all books written by Colleen Hoover; Slammed, Maybe Someday and Hopeless all were enhanced by the experience of actually having a story told to me, and that is in big part thanks to the wonderful narrators. If you aren't sure yet if you'll enjoy an audiobook, I definitely recommend these, but only if new adult contemporary romance novels are part of the genres you enjoy.

LG Optimus UI 3.0 goes head-to-head with Samsung TouchWiz and HTC Sense
LG is upping its game in the user interface stakes by upgrading its custom Android menu system to the Optimus UI 3.0.
The new user interface will debut on the LG Optimus LTE II when it arrives in Korea, but will also be preloaded on the LG Optimus 4X HD, which will be arriving here in the UK from June.
The LG Optimus UI 3.0 will enable users to launch specific features with preset gestures on the touchscreen once the phone has been unlocked; something the manufacturer is calling "Pattern Lock".
The UI will also make it easier to fire up the phone from sleep mode, unlocking the phone by swiping a finger anywhere on the display.
However, our favourite feature is "Voice Shutter" which gives the user the ability to take photos by simply using their voice. Shortcuts to specific photos can also be set to the various homescreens, while applications will be ordered according to how frequently they are used.
The "Quick Memo" function is another quirky addition, which allows the user quickly to jot a note anywhere on their screen with a finger or stylus before, using the scribble in a text, email or social network post. Hmmm haven't we seen that somewhere else before?
LG is hoping its Optimus UI 3.0 will rival Samsung's TouchWiz UI and HTC's Sense 4.0 found on the Galaxy S III and One X respectively.
Do you like the look of LG Optimus UI 3.0? Let us know your thoughts.

Yawn ....Another sleeper-waste-of-space from Danehick.
Note to Tommy Boy: We are all praying to the news-rag gods that YOUR column is given the Schuster treatment (see this week's "Media Watch") and reduced to every other week. In fact, never any week would be even better.
BTW, heard you on Franzi's show last weekend talking about how your wife doesn't want to retire yet, even though she could. My thought was: She knows she can't or else who would support you?
And also ... why bother showing up for a 3 hour radio show and leave in a 1/2 hour? Come to think of it, when someone who talks like Homer Simpson's drunk cousin has the audacity to host a radio show, we all suffer.
Signed, Danehick Sux
Isn't that what I said?
I like to blast my 60's rock when I'm on the computer. If she didn't scream I'd never hear her over Jimi. Then I'd starve.
Scungili? Me thinks Profreader is Italian.
Unlike No Testicles Tommy, half breed mutt.
"Allow me to be the first to have my say about this exiting column."
Should be: "Allow me to be the first to have my say about this exciting column."
Please tell Mrs. 13 to stop screaming. Enjoy your ziti e scungili.
I stand corrected. I meant air distress bag. When you're married to a great Italian cook and she's screaming that dinner is ready it tends to screw up your typing. I notice that it didn't stop 3 morons from disliking what I said.
Allow me to be the first to have my say about this exiting column. If I don't , people won't see my picture and hit dislike. I'd hate for N.T. Tommy to think nobody cares about his outstanding writing. Well, it looks like he's going to have to wait another week for that elusive Pulitzer.
Not that I really care, call it morbid curiosity , I wonder which president he feels is the " bad one". My money is on Washington. I base that on what goes on in that used air distress this stooge calls a brain. I never realized that Lee was a Liberal. After all, he chose the wrong side and lost.
Tom, are you really so naive you don't know who elected Obama? You and I both know it was primarily welfare recipients, undeserving SSI disability recipients, Fed. workers, unions, and others who feel they can bleed the taxpayers easier when Democrats are in control. Others I won't list.
Are you so naive you don't know why our country "is doing so well now"? You and I both know it's because the present admin. has had the money printing machines running 24/7 printing money to give to those groups I list above, so they can spend it and make the economy look better.
Why do you constantly give credit to a party that has and continues at break-neck speed to push our country over the financial cliff?
Disgusting and extremely lame! Tom Danehy's 'ageist' comment about Bernie Sanders --"wacky grandpa routine". Let's see who the wacky one is here: Sanders is the only one in Congress to publicly challenge Alan Greenspan's sham economic views before the 2008 economic crash. Bernie voted against the Iraq war and yet compassionately championed more funding for veterans who were in that war. Voted against arming Syrian rebels. Bernie sets all time records--More than 2.5 million contributions are powering his campaign. That's what a grassroots movement looks like.
✅$73 million since April 30
✅2,513,665 contributions
✅More than 1 million donors
✅Average contribution <$30
Perhaps danehy should do some self-examination about his own 'wackiness' with his siding with media elites who either ignore or denigrate the the only sane candidate running for president. danehy does not deserve to even shine the shoes of the courageous Sen. Sanders.
I was going to say pretty much the same thing this morning, but I've been over dosing on the Twilight Zone marathon. I finally took a break and you wrote almost to the word what I was going to say. Catwoman is a high ranking member of Tommy's L.L.L. And this is the best he could do to counter all the great points you made. Ol" Timmy makes a better case for the right than you and I combined.
Have a great New Year Vince, and don't be such a stranger
Hey mouthy Tim,
You are not exactly mister positive calling one person a racist and suggesting that I "off myself"
I notice you never have a coherent counter-argument, you just keep up the name calling.
Why don't you climb back in your litter box and work on your spelling and typing skills. Have a wonderful 2016.
Nothing could make Hillary look reasonable more than an Orange jumpsuit. For 40 years.
MEOW. Vice. Is that like turley?
Ok, it's halftime between Alabama and Michigan St. and someone has to fact check this guy.
The economy is booming? You are sucking on Barry's crack pipe again Tom. How about a few facts.
One and a half per cent growth. Ninety million people have left the labor force.
Hundreds of millions squandered on a stimulus package that was useless.
United Healthcare says adios to the Obama care scam.
You aren't really gonna give B.O. credit for low gas prices are you? We had these prices ten years ago under W and I remember that he was accused of being in bed with big oil.
Should we talk about our terribly divided country and the worst race relations since 1968?
I thought your prez was going to bring us all together for a kumbaya moment. Terrorism is looking pretty bad considering that ISIS is just the Junior Varsity. Oh WTF, just blame everything on the "angry white guys". You really have become a pathetic Dem Party hack.
" Fan of Danehy" My wife just had to call the paramedics.
Watch what you say about Carson. I said similar things about Obummer and that made a racist. Fan of Danehy! What a way to end the year.
What makes anyone think America is not still great? We still lead the world in science, still have the best universities and the best military. We are gradually coming around to gender equality, are working on minimizing racism, and are slowly making universal health care available to most. Those things we have not improved on, reasonable gun restrictions, improving K-12 education, taking better care of our vets, improving national infrastructure, and facilitating income equality, are all thanks to right wing Republicans and Tea Party "patriots". There we look like idiots to other advance societies and Trump, Carson and Cruz epitomizes that.
Counterpoint to "My Girl." Does it beat "When a Man Loves a Woman," or Sam Cooke singing "Bring It On Home To Me?"
"He is a Nationalist." That's correct, in a jingoistic, xenophobic way. There's nothing patriotic about this man, and you're right, he can't be shamed because he has no shame. He has no shame and no sense of decency. Real patriots don't support Trump; he represents the worst of America.
What you people don't understand, and that's OK, is that Trump is not a Republican. This RINO cuckservative party doesn't want him either.
He is a Nationalist. He cannot be bought, he cannot be shamed, he cannot be stumped.
He is legitimately running for president because he cares for his children and grand children's future.
He has been saying the SAME things and has always loved America.
I know it's hard for you to understand patriotism, and to love America after all the programming of the past 30 years. Programming of white guilt, of American guilt, that we deserve to be treated poorly for past actions. But enough.
Do you want America to be great again? I do.
Trump 2016
chuckj just wished everybody a Merry Christmas and got a dislike. Wanna bet it was a liberal ?
I have always heard condemnation of the secularization and commercialization of Christmas. In my dotage, however, I would posit an alternative. The commercialization and secularization of Christmas actually demonstrates the prevailing influence of Christ in the world. His teachings achieve nearly universal acceptance at this season, and thereby demonstrate His lasting influence upon our culture, our world. Ignore the churches, ignore the preaching, ignore the repetitive songs and artistic celebrations when thinking this way. Someone has written 'Christmas is Giving'. It is a time for blessing each other, for showing you care. That happens to people whether they are involved in a church or not. In fact, even as some religions attempt to avoid participating in the traditional symbols - and I would go so far as to include the atheist in this! - their adherents are probably purchasing gifts for their loved ones, enjoying special moments of peace and conviviality, and in general choosing a life path not far removed from the one Christ laid out. Even as the schools and the judiciary try to quash the symbols and the art, the fundamental idea controls! It's reported that the substitute for 'Merry Christmas' this year is 'Happy Federal Holidays'! Even if that absurdity should prevail, Christmas will survive! Merry Christmas Everybody!
I'm sure the Mass you speak of at the end is just thrilled to have you. Mr. superior Catholic. If the issue of the sanctity of life ever comes up maybe you could lecture the assembly on the goodness of Planned Parenthood. Phony, hypocrite. A whole column on the lives and loves of Burr and Hamilton. Now, there's a great Christmas present !! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ! Who knows, Tommy Girl. Maybe Santa will bring you some cojones this year. Better than a regular job.

Hello! I just want to ask if acquiring for "visa service" companies would be an efficient way for me apply for a tourist visa? If so, what are the requirements or qualities that I should look for in a "visa-assisting company"? We have a lot of companies here, in our country, that offer promising visa-assisting services.

What is your country, Annie? Hard to give meaningful answers with so little information.
Besides, it would seem to me that a direct inquiry by you to the embassies of the countries you might want to visit would give you much more accurate information than we on a travel forum.

What sort of visa are you looking for?

'our country' - no indication of your country.
You may not even need a tourist visa.
As above, more input from you required.

It does depend on what type of visa you're looking for. If it's a simple tourist visa you could probably easily do it yourself. If it's a long term visa or you're pressed for time then use a company. Don't you have some type of agency that oversees the creditability of agencies? You could call the consulate of whatever country you want a visa for and ask them to recommend a visa agency.

Normally for Schengen visa for those who require it: You can do it yourself, bearing in mind the protocol for which country you should apply to (main destination or first Schengen country of arrival when visiting several states for equal duration).
If you have non-standard application, such as previous Schengen visa violations, refused entries or deportations, going through an agent or immigration lawyer may make sense.

Dear Annie
if you are from USA, to get information about a VISA - speaking for Switzerland - you should contact the Swiss Consulate which are located in NYC, Los Angeles (or Montreal for Canada).

Canals: Stratford upon Avon
The idea of a canal from Stratford to almost anywhere else was a comparatively late one. Stratford was already situated on the River Avon, and much of its trade came along that waterway. As the network of surrounding canals developed in the late 1780s, the merchants of the area found that supplies of some goods were not so easily obtained as before, they were being shipped from source to Birmingham. It was found that the market for local produce was becoming more restricted. Any towns or villages near a canal could be supplied more cheaply via the canal than by packhorse or wagon overland.
There were many possible routes that were considered. To really benefit from the canals, the Stratford had to link up with some of the others to enable coal and metal goods to reach the town more cheaply.
The route adopted ran from the Worcester and Birmingham Canal at Kings Norton to Stratford on its path it came within 2 miles of the then planned Warwick and Birmingham Canal and there seems to always have been the intention to link the two. Negotiations between the two companies were muddled. They didn't seem to want to offend any of the other companies. The Stratford company ended up having to accept a penalty charge on any goods that went North to Birmingham having left the Warwick Canal.
The Act of Parliament for the building of the Stratford Canal was granted in March 1793. The Junction with the Warwick Canal being authorised in 1795.
The first section of the canal to be opened went from Kings Norton to Hockley Heath. Opened in May 1796, it took most of the money that had been raised to dig the whole canal. Josiah Clowes was the engineer in charge, though he was also building the Worcester and Birmingham Canal and the Dudley No 2 Canal. The first section did contain Kings Norton Tunnel and two long embankments, but nothing to explain the expense. Clowes died before the section was completed. The treasurer of the company was himself owed 000 and there was little incentive to complete the canal until the others linking to it were complete.
Only when the Dudley No 2 Canal was finished and coal was easily available from the Black Country that a further Act of Parliament was sought. This gave the authority to borrow more money and allowed the route to be changed . The junction of the Stratford with the Warwick and Birmingham would be shorter as the canals would now be within half a mile of each other at the junction. In 1880 work started again, with Samuel Porter as engineer. The canal reached Kingswood and the junction in 1802. The two canal companies argued about the tolls for traffic leaving one canal and joining the other.
The canal progressed no further for another ten years. The Stratford Corporation begged that the canal be completed to their town. The incentive to continue came with another wave of canal speculations that suggested the Stratford could become part of a major cross-country route. Speculators took up the shares and money was available. In 1812 work had restarted and in June 1813 had reached Wooton Wawen.
Also in 1813, a new route between Wooten Wawen and Wilmscote and routes to link up with the Avon in Stratford were proposed. Water storage reservoirs at Earlswood were also planned. Parliament gave permission in 1815 but work on the canal was now rapid and by 24 June 1816, the canal was complete. Tipton coal was available for 10d per cwt.
This rapid finish was under the direction of William Whitmore who had been responsible for the canal for all of the southern section after Kingswood. He seems to have given the Southern Stratford a unique style.
The three cast iron aqueducts(at Wooton Wawen, Bearley and Yarningale), the iron bridges over the canal (with a gap in the middle to let the tow rope through) and the Barrel-roofed lock cottages are all part of Whitmores work
Trade along the canal started as soon as each section was complete. The North Stratford was used, together with the Dudley canals, as a bypass for Black Country products, avoiding the congested Birmingham canals. In this way coal, iron, firebricks and other manufactured goods travelled the first 12.5 miles of the canal, onto the Warwick and Birmingham and on its way to the south east. there was considerable rivalry between the different canals to carry the traffic, so tolls were low to remain competitive. Coal was charged a toll of 10.5d for the of the 12.5miles of the section.
The southern section of the canal carried mainly coal to Stratford area and farm produce in the opposite direction. limestone was brought to the canal at Wilmscote from Temple Grafton. The stone was used for iron making in Halesowen area and was and was turned into agricultural lime by kilns at along the canal.
Stratford also benefitted from a major improvement in the carrying of general goods and parcels. By 1830 there were several local companies advertising that there were boats leaving daily, for Birmingham. Stratford, itself, began to develop as a town as cheap coal resulted in new industries starting in the area.
As soon as the Stratford canal made a junction with the River Avon at Stratford it found itself in competition with the Worcester and Birmingham canal. Both canals had links to the Avon (the W and B having access via the Severn) . Both could see a lucrative market for coal along the Avon and reduced tolls on coal destined for the river. The Vale of Evesham became the centre of the battle. The W and B even leased the Lower Avon from Tewkesbury to Evesham to ensure that the coal would get through. The Stratford Canal did considerable trade along the Avon. In 1836, for example, 10635 tons of coal passed from the canal onto the Avon, and made 412 net income.
As trade developed,there was increasing need for water to keep the canal full. The planned reservoirs at Earlswood were finally started in 1821 and developed in stages. They eventually provided so much water that the company was able to sell water to rival companies. The water level at Earlswood was mainly below the level of the canal, so steam pumps were purchased to enable most of the water to be used. A smaller reservoir at Chobury Pool , near Kingswood, and some small springs added to the supply.
The 1830s and 1840s were a period of great competition. Other canal routes in the Midlands were improving their canals, by straightening, or extending, whilst many new canals were planned.
The competition for long distance trade to, for example London, resulted in canal companies agreeing to reduce the tolls along the route using their particular canals. In this way the different routes, each involving several companies, struggled to keep the major traffic on their waters. As a result the cost of carrying iron from Stourbridge to London was cut by more than two thirds. Similar toll reductions were made for other bulk goods and every canal company found itself making less profit.
In 1838 the London to Birmingham Railway had opened and the canal operators had another reason to keep their charges low.
For the Stratford Canal, the upper part from Kings Norton to Kingswood was one of the through route sections.
Trade on the rest of the canal had also developed. Stratford had become a centre for distribution, with over 20 merchants dealing in coal, stone, timber or grain. In 1845 over 48000 tons of coal had been delivered to the town . Of this only 18000 tons was used in the town, the rest being distributed to the surrounding area.
The trade was partly improved by the running of a horse-drawn tramway from Stratford to Moreton in the Marsh and Shipston on Stour. It was carrying around 15000 tons of coal from the canal every year. In 1842 the company took out a five year lease on the Upper Avon, to try to improve coal sales in the Vale of Evesham, but found it was not profitable to control the river.
From 1845 the history of the canal becomes tied up in that of the railways. It was a period of railway mania with many new tracks and routes proposed and a lot of speculation in the shares of the new companies.
One of those proposed railways was the Oxford, Worcester and Wolverhampton Railway. It was to build a line from Oxford, through Moreton in the Marsh, and Evesham to Wolverhampton. It was also planning to build a branch that went from Cheltenham, through Moreton in the Marsh and Stratford to Birmingham. This would have directly competed with the canal and an agreement was made that if the OWWR got Parliamentary permission to build their lines, they would purchase the canal from its shareholders. It was intended to use some of the canal for the track.
The OWWR had competitors who also wanted to build lines in the same region. The Birmingham and Oxford Junction Railway intended to build a line to Stratford and link up with the OWWR. The two companies both wanted to run from Stratford to Birmingham and bargained over which would actually build that branch. Eventually they agreed that the BOJR would build the line. It had always been understood that whichever railway built the Birmingham to Stratford route would buy out the canal company. The OWWR gained parliamentary permission for its lines in 1846 before the BOJR. They found themselves committed to buying a canal on a route they were not using. Even worse, they found their competitors unable to buy the canal. Several further attempts were made to get an Act of Parliament for the BOJR to buy the canal, but failed.
All this time the canal had continued trading. There was additional trade from carrying building materials for the Railway companies to construct their lines. It was only in the mid 1850s that the railways began to take over the transport of goods. The OWWR Act of Parliament required that the canal should be kept in good condition by the railway. There had to be enough water and it had to be navigable.
Despite these conditions , the canal slowly deteriorated.
There was less and less traffic and so less reason to keep it well dredged and well maintained. By 1900 less than 8000 tons of cargo travelled to Stratford along the canal. The decline continued until the Southern section of canal was virtually unnavigable, though very pretty.
The railway company had become part of the GWR, but that had no effect on the canal. When the railways were nationalised in 1949 the canal came under the control of the British Transport Commission. The northern part of the canal was still usable, but much in need of repair. The southern section was derelict and was used occasionally by canoeists.
In 1956 the Stratford on Avon Canal Society was formed. Its members were interested in restoring the canal to full working order. Their first challenge was in 1958, when Warwickshire County Council decide to apply for the Southern part of the canal to be officially abandoned (under the Railway and Canal Traffic Act 1888)
It was possible to show that the canal had been used by waterborne craft. A canal official issued a Permit in 1957 to a canoeist wishing to travel the canal. Under the terms of the Act it was doubtful if the canal could be officially abandoned, as it had been used in the last three years. Restoring it presented a different problem.

Under the terms of the Act it was doubtful if the canal could be officially abandoned, as it had been used in the last three years. Restoring it presented a different problem.
Approaches were made to the National Trust to see if they were prepared to manage and restore the waterway. With the support of funds from the Ministry of Transport and many private donations, the Trust took over the canal in September 1960.
The restoration was supervised by a full time manager, David Hutchings, but carried out by volunteer labour, prisoners and some army units. The work involved rebuilding locks and their gates, dredging and the clearance of rubbish and vegetation that were blocking the canal.
The canal was reopened on 11 July 1964 by the Queen Mother. That weekend saw over 200 boats travel the canal for a Rally in Stratford.

Excellent staff and maintenance. The best!!!
What is a Certified Resident?
A resident who lives at the property and has completed a resident satisfaction survey.
Advertising properties provide a list of email addresses of its residents to Kingsley Associates, a third party market research firm, who then sends out the satisfaction survey to the residents. Properties may also conduct satisfaction surveys of its residents through other third party market research firms. In those cases, we will publish those survey responses as long as the questions conform to our standard survey format.
Because reviews are from Certified Residents, and are managed by a third party, you can feel confident that the feedback provided is accurate and trustworthy.

great fun!,
This review is from: How To Draw Anything (Paperback)
How to Draw AnythingWas always bad at art at school, so assumed I'd never be able to draw, but this little book's a gem. Just wish I had several hours free every day to play with the ideas in it! I'm never going to get to the Royal Academy, but at least I can see now it's not just down to being "a natural", so if you want to get a bit of confidence and start drawing for fun, this book is a great help.

Jeff Ledger over at Gadget Gangster put together a great tutorial on how to make a resistor calculator that speaks the resistor value to you.
Even at 40, I still think of myself as a young guy, but my eyes… not so much anymore. From my electronic microscope to my Aladdin Rainbow reading machine, I've taken every step to make sure that vision isn't an issue, but sometimes reading the bands on a simple resistor is still a big pain. Is that an orange stripe or a red one?
Talking Resistor Calculator speaks to tell you what the value of your resistors.
via Hack a Day
The Quick Proto kit adds video and audio to your Propeller Platform and includes a prototyping area. It can stack on top of the Propeller Platform, or underneath, and it uses the same pinouts as Parallax's Demoboard.

The winds blew hot on the water and plentiful in the classroom
by Oakcliff Sailing on 11 Jul 2012
The victorious team at the 2012 Oakcliff Youth Match Racing Clinegatta (from left to right): Jack Thompson, Brandon Folkman, Jimmy Madigan, Nikki Barnes, Dominick Re, and skipper Michael Madigan. - Oakcliff Youth Match Racing Clinegatta Dave Perry
The combination of Dave Perry, Match 40s and Oakcliff Sailing's completely unique training and coaching was too good to miss as a sold out crowd of fifty two young sailors showed up to learn and to match race.
Sailors ages 15 to 24 traveled from California, Florida, the US Virgin Islands, Illinois and Canada to join local sailors for four days of intense coaching from Perry, the current national match racing champion and Board member at Oakcliff.
In the end of the day it was the team from Newport Harbor Yacht Club (CA) who was victorious, but all participants went away winners. Many attendees were college sailors looking towards the 2012 ICSA collegiate national match racing championship and others were match racing for the first time. North U helped sponsor the event.
The training and racing was done in Oakcliff's Match 40's, which was exciting for the young sailors, many of whom were sailing on boats that size, and with a wheel, for the first time. 'I was very impressed with the steep learning curve of all the sailors,' said Perry. Our goals were to increase the knowledge each sailor has about sailing and racing a keelboat, learn a ton about match racing, learn how to develop good communication and decision making systems on board a racing sailboat, and have a lot of fun doing it. For sure we succeeded in all four.'
In addition, Oakcliff 's trainees (Acorns and Saplings) raced in the event. Acorns and Saplings are summer students and interns learning all aspects of sailing and racing from tactics to boat building and maintenance to navigation to the business side of running a racing boat.
The Acorns and Saplings were ecstatic with the training with comments such as 'Dave Perry blew my mind up with information. The debriefs never stopped and we didn't want them to stop, well maybe for a snack. I learned so much it was incredible.'
Alongside the clinic, Bruce Cook, chairman of the US Sailing Umpires Committee, led an umpire training clinic, and immediately after those umpires worked the regatta.
Final Results:
Mike Madigan, Newport Beach, CA…4-2
Alex Curtiss, Chicago, IL…4-2
Sam Davidson, Larchmont, NY…4-2
Erik Lawrence, Ft Lauderdale, FL…3-3
Solomon Krevans, Oakcliff…3-3
Tim Clark, Southport, CT…2-4
Seth Cooley, Oakcliff…2-4
Danielle Gallo, Oakcliff…1-5

Karnataka CM meets meets Gadkari
New Delhi: In the wake of sulking BJP leader B S Yeddyurappa`s pro-Congress comments, Karnataka Chief Minister Sadanand Gowda on Sunday met party president Nitin Gadkari and other senior leaders here to discuss the new developments and the future course of action.
In a meeting lasting over an hour, Gadkari and party leaders Arun Jaitley and Karnataka incharge Dharmendra Pradhan discussed the state affairs with Gowda.
Sources said there is likely to be no change of Chief Minister in Karnataka.
Earlier in the day, Gowda has told reporters here that he was not aware why Yeddyurappa had praised Congress leaders and this question should be put to the former Chief Minister.
He also said that he has not received any resignations from any of his cabinet colleague.
Yeddyurappa`s camp claim that nine ministers of the Gowda Cabinet have submitted their resignation to the former CM in protest against the Central leadership`s refusal to reinstate him.
"I have to praise Sonia Gandhi. I noticed that Congress party and its people are united and supportive if any one of their party members gets into trouble. They help each other and resolve the problems," Yeddyurappa had said addressing a gathering in Bangalore today.
The Central leadership is said to be opposed to Yeddyurappa`s demand for his reinstatement as he is facing graft charges in an illegal mining case.
The Supreme Court has ordered a CBI inquiry into the matter further spoiling Yeddyurappa`s chances.
Gadkari also held meetings with Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh and Leader of Opposition in Rajasthan assembly Vasundhara Raje on matters related to the respective states.
Party General Secretary J P Nadda was also present in the meeting.
Raje had also met Jaitley earlier in the day.

Chariot Oil & Gas Limited (AIM: CHAR) announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Chariot Oil & Gas Investments (Mauritania) Ltd. has entered into a production sharing contract (the "Contract") with the Government of the Islamic Republic of Mauritania ("Mauritania" or the "State") for a 90% interest and operatorship in offshore Block C19, which covers an area of 14,125 km². The Contract remains subject to routine approval by the State before it becomes effective.The Contract consists of an initial three year period, during which Chariot has agreed to reprocess the existing 2D seismic datasets and then to carry out a 1,600km2 3D seismic survey. Following the results of this work, Chariot may then elect to move forward into subsequent phases of the Contract which would involve the undertaking of exploration drilling activities. Chariot will be partnered with Société Mauritaniennede Hydrocarbures(SMH), the National Oil Company of Mauritania, which will participate with a 10% carried interest. In the event of a commercial discovery, the State will have the option to increase its interest to 15%.Block C19 is a highly attractive addition to Chariot's existing offshore West Africa portfolio. The block is located 30km off the coast of Mauritania with water depths ranging from 5m to 2,100m. Like Chariot's Namibian portfolio, it is in an area where petroleum systems are proven but exploration is very immature. Also, as in Namibia, Mauritania offers a favourable working environment, fair fiscal terms and a developed, stable resource sector.Paul Welch, CEO of Chariot, commented:"We are very pleased to announce the expansion of our portfolio into offshore Mauritania and entrance into an already oil producing province. This has always been part of our longer term strategy through which we aim to mitigate risk and balance our portfolio. The team continues to carefully evaluate African deep water opportunities in order to find additional blocks of interest."We believe that our experience, skill-set and capabilities, as demonstrated in Namibia, will enable us to unlock further potential in West African deep water assets and we look forward to doing so alongside the Mauritanian Government in our newly acquired acreage."
