How does this organization make a difference?
Self-reported by organization
Accomplishments for FY 2016: The Alliance launched a new initiative that connects former military personnel to nonprofit careers. The pilot included 75 veterans who are part of The Mission Continues network. These individuals are participating in an online leadership development program that includes coursework and service. Participants received extensive career counseling and resources. Upon completion, they will earn the Alliance's Certified Nonprofit Professional (CNP) credential.In order to address the demand for qualified nonprofit professionals, the Alliance must expand the ways that students can earn the CNP. To that end, we added the following campuses to our network last fiscal year: University of Colorado-Denver, Metropolitan State University, University of North Texas-Dallas, Madison College. We also launched a virtual learning platform that allows students to earn the CNP credential in a completely online environment. We hosted our annual Alliance Management Institute in Houston, January 3-5, 2016. As the largest nonprofit career development conference in the country specifically geared toward undergraduate students, the 2016 Institute had 435 students in attendance. This resulted in more than 3,500 hours of service provided to Houston-area nonprofits. The Alliance awarded 114 scholarships and internship stipends to students with demonstrated financial need. Goals for FY 2017: Award the CNP credential to a minimum of 450 undergraduate and graduate students.Award the CNP credential to a minimum of 50 veterans and other working professionals.Affiliate four new campus partners.

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Program 1
Certified Nonprofit Professional (CNP) Credential
The Certified Nonprofit Professional (CNP) credential is the only national nonprofit credential preparing students for careers in nonprofit management. Students who complete a rigorous leadership development program at one of the Alliance's affiliated colleges or universities are awarded the credential and gain access to tremendous nonprofit career resources, including the CNP network. The training for the Alliance's CNP credential is based on the 10 core competencies that hiring managers are looking for in prospective employees.The Alliance's competency-based model uses an evidence-based assessment, rather than grade point average, to determine whether core competencies have been attained. A hallmark of the CNP credential is the experiential learning that is infused throughout the program. Students demonstrate mastery of academic material by successfully undertaking a real-life application of the theory or process studied. This applied learning happens through service-learning and fundraising activities, leadership development programming, project and event management, and a minimum 300-hour nonprofit internship.
Program long term success
The number of Alliance certified graduates entering the nonprofit sector as professionals each year increases. Alliance students will gain theoretical, practical, and relevant knowledge for careers in the nonprofit sector.Internships are a competitive opportunity for exemplary students to implement knowledge gained in coursework in a nonprofit setting while gaining additional real world knowledge and skills. The Job-Matching Program, in conjunction with the Alliance Management/Leadership Institute (AMI), provides Alliance students and certified alumni with opportunities to interview with nonprofit employers and graduate schools.
Program success monitored by
Benchmarks, measurements and tracking are part of each area of operation. Alliance survey of students and alumni monitor program success and the online database maintains records.
Program success examples
Alliance programs graduated 600 CNPs for the past two academic years (Fall 2013 - Summer 2015.) Graduates of programs are diverse, with at least 30 percent from groups that are underrepresented in nonprofit management. 35 percent of students in Alliance programs are self-identified as minorities. $34,500 was awarded in internship stipends to Alliance students from fall of 2014 to spring of 2015 via the NextGen internship program. This program continues to grow, enabling students to engage in hands-on experiences.

Program 2
Alliance Management Institute (AMI)
Each year, the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance hosts more than 650 college students, many of whom are about to graduate and start nonprofit careers. Students attend AMI to meet a CNP requirement. They attend workshops taught by nonprofit professionals, and conduct "case study" leadership service projects with local nonprofits, where they help nonprofits tackle strategic challenges. They also hear from national nonprofit leaders and network with nonprofits about career opportunities.
Program long term success
Alliance alumni will succeed as nonprofit professionals and continue to be connected to the Alliance. Participants will develop an inclusive Alliance collaborative spirit. Participants will be more connected to the Alliance National network and nonprofit sector. Participants will expand their knowledge and preparation for leadership in the nonprofit sector.
Program success monitored by
Benchmarks, measurements, and tracking are part of each component of AMI. The online database system maintains records. Evaluations of participants measure satisfaction, learning, involvement, and participation. The number of participants who are returning Alliance alumni, nonprofit professionals, or faculty also measures AMI's success.
Program success examples
AMI 2016 Houston was attended by 430 students from 35 Alliance campuses. Overall, there were over 500 total attendees.Students generated over 2,500 service-learning hours for Houston area nonprofit organizations through the case study experience.215 students participated in career interviews.60 students from eight Alliance campuses presented 22 posters on nonprofit research or best practices in Alliance student associations.

Program 3
Career Development Awards
The Career Development Award program is designed to eliminate the barrier of an unpaid internship by providing $2,000 in internship stipends for students completing the requirements of the CNP credential. A key objective of the program is to promote diversity of the nonprofit workforce.
Program long term success
By promoting and helping facilitate student internships at nonprofit organizations, the long-term Alliance goals are the following: Illustrate the unique experiential and educational value of internships. Encourage nonprofits to utilize internships as a valuable staff recruitment tool much like the government and for-profit sectors do. Demonstrate the value of paid internships as a way to attract qualified interns. Increase the diversity of the nonprofit sector workforce.
Program success monitored by
Program results are monitored by an annual independent evaluation team that utilizes surveys, interviews, and focus groups of Career Development leaders, a comparison group of Alliance students who are not participating in the Career Development Award, Alliance program campus directors, and internship site supervisors. The Career Development Award program includes a separate longitudinal study of college graduates entering the nonprofit sector workforce. While still in development, the Alliance presently envisions a study that would evaluate the impact of competitive internship stipends and scholarships on recruiting and retaining nonprofit professionals. This study would be conducted through the year 2017 and would largely utilize the same survey population from the process evaluation noted above.
Program success examples
To date, the Alliance has selected a diverse body of over 1,000 students as Career Development Program leaders. All told, 46 percent of Career Development Program leaders selected to date are minority students, 50 percent are Caucasian, and 3 percent did not identify their race/ethnicity. From 2014-2015, $58,500 was awarded in stipends.

Program 4
Network Partners
The Alliance is working to change the world in ways that ensure nonprofit organizations have the talented workforce they need to fulfill their missions. The Alliance's commitment to offering alternate pathways to the credential is an extension of our initiative to strengthen the pipeline to nonprofit careers. Currently, Alliance students must be enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program to obtain the credential. Our objective for the 2016 fiscal year is to launch an alternative way to earn the credential. We hope to sign new partners and engage our current ones to offer continuing education that will allow current professionals, veterans and service members to gain the missing pieces they need to fulfill the ten competencies linked to the credential.
Program long term success
Increase number and variety of academic institutions offering the CNP.Increase number and diversity of CNPs through the alternate pathways option.Enhance programming to ensure candidates have successful careers in the sector.Increase overall brand awareness.
Program success monitored by
The annual number of CNPs awarded through alternate pathways indicate success of this program, as well as the number of CNPs who have secured employment at a nonprofit organization as a result of this initiative and the CNP credential.
Program success examples
The program has yet to be launched but we are receiving very positive feedback from interested individuals and organizations.

Program 5
CNP Launch
The Alliance provides a critical link between talented professionals interested in careers in the nonprofit sector and employers interested in hiring passionate and prepared employees. One important way we do this is through CNP Launch, a cloud-based employment matching system that connects students and CNPs to job and internship openings at our national and local nonprofit partners. At any given time, CNP Launch features more than 4,000 nonprofit internship and employment opportunities.
Program long term success
This program is designed to support all Certified Nonprofit Professionals (CNPs) and all future students. Due to the comprehensive internship and job database and the ease of use each individual experiences, this program will increase placements in the nonprofit sector. Currently the Alliance has struggled to track placement results when our CNPs graduate. With this system, in year one we will place 15% of our CNPs with an ambitious goal to place 50% of our CNPs in the future. Additionally this program increases retention of talent in the nonprofit sector due to the varied employment opportunities at the entry, mid and senior level of all nonprofits. Nonprofit organizations have already celebrated this program and our nonprofit partnerships have grown 34% since the program launched. We anticipate nonprofit partnership to grow from 12 to 25 in 3 years because of the program offerings.
Program success monitored by
When students apply for positions, the system requires them to keep their interview statuses up to date, and to keep the Alliance informed of their progress. CNP Launch is connected to our credentialing system which allows job-seekers the opportunity to request a ""CNP endorsement"" from the Alliance for each position they apply for. This benefit gives our CNPs and students an edge in a competitive job market. Because the system is new resources have been developed to teach students and CNPs how to use the system. If a student does not return to CNP Launch to update the results of their job search, the Alliance has a robust LinkedIn project to track CNPs' career trajectory throughout the next decade. Using these systems we can monitor the student experience and advocate for our graduates. For nonprofits, a survey is generated for each position that is posted in CNP Launch.
Program success examples
A second tutorial video was created to include instructions on elements from phase two of CNP Launch, revealed last year. Many students and CNPs have been placed in jobs and internships in the nonprofit sector due to CNP Launch. The system now has an option for the national office to endorse CNPs to their potential employers. In 2016-2017, we will be offering the opportunity for non-partners to pay for individual job postings, thereby expanding the options for students and CNPs.

New Delhi, March 21: The National Investigation Agency does not want to take any chances in the probe into the Pathankot attack. It will now send for re-examination the charred remains found at the second encounter spot to ascertain whether there were six or four terrorists.
The forensic test that the NIA received recently suggested that there were human remains, but could not source DNA samples as they were completely charred. There was a major confusion over the number of terrorists at the Pathankot air base.
Also read: Pathankot probe- NIA team likely to visit Islamabad soon
While on day one four terrorists were killed, an encounter raged on for another 60 hours in which it was stated that a gun battle was on with two more.
Not taking chances
With the Special Investigation Team scheduled to arrive at Pathankot on March 27, the NIA does not want to take any chances. Any wrong information if found in the probe at India could weaken the case considerably.
Moreover Pakistan is likely to cling on to that point in case of a mistake and would put the onus back on India to get its facts right.
It may be recalled that an intercept picked up at the time of the attack heard one of the handlers telling the terrorist, " they do not even know how many of you are there." The NIA wants to be doubly sure and hence wants to send the samples for re-examination.
The first forensic report took a considerable amount of time. The NIA had to even sent two reminders. The report stated that the charred remains are that of a juman male, but the identity could not be ascertained as it was not possible to obtain DNA samples.
Apart from being sure before the Pakistan team visits India, the NIA also does not want any trouble in a court of law. The courts could pass adverse comments hampering the trial in case the facts of the case are not right.
Before going any further into the probe, the NIA wants to make sure that it has the number of terrorists right.

Investors might have forgiven the earnings miss but that bad news was compounded by eBay lowering its profit forecasts going into 2005.
For the fourth quarter, eBay reported net profit up 44% to $205.4m, or 30 cents a share, from $142.5m a year earlier.
Excluding special items, the company made $226m. Analysts expected 34 cents per share. Revenue for the period was $935.8m, up 44% from $648.4m in 2003.
For the current first quarter, eBay forecasts revenue of between $1.01bn and $1.03bn and earnings excluding exceptional items of between 34 cents and 35 cents a share compared with the analysts' view of about 40 cents a share.
The group said key holiday sales got off to a slow start in its core US and German markets, and the weak dollar unexpectedly hurt results, although the company beat its own projections.
It said it decided to increase investments this year in key areas, particularly China and its online payment subsidiary PayPal, by $100m to $300m. It will spend about 2% of its expected global revenue - $100m - in China.
'In our judgment, this is the right thing to do right now,' chief executive Meg Whitman told analysts. Whitman would not be drawn on when eBay expects to make money from its business in China, where there is great potential but also stiff competition.
The company has been recruiting staff in the country, where PayPal is a key for its expansion. A lack of online payment methods has held back the growth of services such as eBay, which entered the Chinese market by acquiring established player Eachnet.
Some local companies are looking at the problem in a different way. Shanghai-based SmartPay Jieyin, a leader in the emerging field, is setting up a payment system using mobile phones. It already allows customers to pay their phone bills by that method, and there are no guarantees that the Chinese will favour the US and UK model of online payments.
Competition could derail eBay's Chinese plans and deny it the virtual market monopoly it has in the US and UK, which has made it something of a safe haven among internet stocks.

Dirt cheap prototype PCB manufactory
Dear all
I usually use Olimex for prototype PCBs, but they have now stopped this service :(
Lookin for another good and cheap manufactor, I found imall on the net:
PCB prototyping
They even make 4 layer boards real cheap :D
Has anyone tried them, and had good experience??
Kind regards Baldin ;)
Looks like very similar service (maybe they are using imall, ormaybe both imall and seed uses the same third party).
Have you actually tried seed?
And what is your experience?
seeed is fine, they order their PCBs from the same factory as imall AFAIK. seeed gives you free shipping on 50$+ orders.
A week of actual turnaround (excluding shipping), easy ordering process and cheap shipping makes the seeed my number one.
The PCBs are fine too.
Why not make your own boards ? its cheap
I have used many different prototype and production board services over many years. Right now, I am using OSH Park for my prototype boards:
OSH Park ~ Welcome
Great quality of board, easy to submit designs (I just click to upload the Eagle Board file). All the boards come in the funky purple color, which is OK for me. Pricing is very reasonable, $5 per square inch includes 3 copies of the board and free shipping in the USA. (eg 3 copies of a 4 sq-in board costs $20 including shipping).
The downside is the long turnaround time. They are a hobby group buy operation, so they add your design to others that come in until they get a full panel. In my experience, they run 2 or 3 panels a week of 2-layer boards. You upload a design and it is assigned to the next panel. The panel then goes to fab. I have seen anywhere from 10 to 20 calendar days for the panel to come back from fab. Then they snap apart the panel and mail it to you. Total turnaround from the time you upload the design until panels arrive to you is usually about 3 weeks. This is fine for my DIY Audio stuff, but not for my business.
For boards I do for my business, I have used mostly Advanced Circuits in Colorado:
PCB Manufacturer in Aurora Colorado Manufacturing Annular Ring, Printed Circuit Board Fabrication, Printed Circuit Boards, PCB Prototype Circuit Board's
Not cheap, but ultra-reliable. Prototype boards come in about a week, and work out to about $150 for 4 boards (regardless of size). I use nothing but Advanced Circuits for production runs (learned my lesson years ago on this one).
I have also used Our PCB for prototype boards, especially of they are not standard for some reason (thicker boards, 2oz copper, etc):
PCB Manufacturing | PCB Assembling & Components Procurement Service
Boards come in just over a week. Pricing depends on size. There is a $90 setup fee per order (first run of boards only), then after that figure about $5 per board. The quality is very good, but not perfect like Advanced Circuits.
I test for a contract manufacturer of fully assembled PCBs. But still would get
my DIY from Silicon Ray. Just saying, I know of what I speak. His stuff is not
best I've ever seen, but still way better than what little you might pay for it.
Guys I work for are way too expensive. Unless you needed something built and
tested entirely in the US for whatever reason, in three to five days. Then only,
maybe we make Dollars sense. I remember having pulled a one day miracle on
at least one or two occasions...
For my own purposes: I could never afford anything we've made. Unless it was
an EVM subsidised by someone willing to take a loss to promote some new part.
There is a review and comments here that you might find useful :
Seeed Studio vs ITead Studio PCB service head to head | Dangerous Prototypes
I will probably use seeed next time as they sell more interesting stuff than istead.
Just got the board an hour ago, and its perfect, Im well pleased with the quality and service.
So it went like this :
11/1/13 - Placed the order
18/1/13 - Got a message saying PCB have left China.
21/1/13 - Got a message saying PCB will be delivered today.
That is 1 week and 3 days from China to UK. Considering we have bad weather right now too, that is amazing. :D
I use Seeed Fusion all the time. Many of my boards are 2 inch x 2 inch (5 cm), so I get 10 boards, double sided, shipped for $14. Who else can do that?
The quality is good, but expect the boards to take 2-4 weeks to arrive.
Why is this in Class D?

Helpful Travel Tips For Ironic Catholics Flying With Children
(Right, Gulf Shores, Alabama: My parents dragged me across the USA just for this?)
With still a month to go in the vacation season, the Ironic Catholic is pleased to provide some helpful travel tips for those faithful Catholics traveling by plane with small children. The key is to look at the experience as one that cultivates virtue as well as survival skills. Happy flying!
1. Remember: flying on an airplane with your children is praxis in patience.
2. Martin Luther King Jr. once said that unmerited suffering is redemptive. Now, you're covered.
3. When you check in for the flight, and the airline has placed you, your husband, and your three kids in five different sections of the plane, take the opportunity to remember that the gate agent is also created in the image of God, and that Jesus died for her as well.
4. Despite earnest entreaties from your young ones, resist letting them bring their own carry-ons. When you get halfway to gate D-98, they will be "carrying on" about how heavy their backpacks are. P.s. Suggesting that this is like carrying your own cross does not work with children under the age of reason.
5. Discuss with your spouse before boarding whether it is most appropriate to pray for your souls or pray for the successful and safe completion of the flight. Loud, theological arguments are a big no-no on flights these days.
6. If you must book a connection, realize that you will have to sprint at full speed from one end of the airport to another with three kids, four carry-ons, a 50 lb diaper bags full of distracting toys, and a car seat, only to find out that the flight has been delayed (see #2).
7. A well-timed dose of Children's Benadryl can facilitate peace and good will with fellow passengers.
8. Realize that a rosary has dual use on a flight: it is an incentive to faith and prayer as well as a fascinating sparkly item that swings for the youngest set.
9. Remember onboard alcoholic drinks cost $5. (See #2)
10. When all else fails, feed the kids M&Ms. Those large bags of mini-M&Ms give you more bang for your buck.

I should pull exactly that face if the weather was thus.
Like the quote, I shall be redeemed, then.
( Suddenly I do think I deserve it...)
- Dad29 said...
No, no, no, no...
Feed the kids the alcoholic drinks, less expensive/dose than the Benadryl.
Whatever happened to Cheerio-face-stuffers as opposed to M&M's?
Don't try this with a 15-passenger van. We did, once--4500 miles.
Mom wound up on the floor (I am NOT making that up) with the kids laughing at her as we navigated the mountain passes.
But we DO have very active Guardian Angels. After the first 2,26o miles or so, the front-wheel bearings on the passenger side gave out. While we were with the relatives, near Seattle.
Had they done so 400 miles earlier............

"Whatever happened to Cheerio-face-stuffers as opposed to M&M's?"
M&Ms are hard core, man. True desperation.

2003 24 Hour of Le Mans Winner to Join Dyson Racing for 12 Hours of Sebring
POUGHKEEPSIE, NY January 28, 2005 -- Guy Smith, victorious in the 2003 24 Hours of Le Mans, will bring his winning ways to Thetford / Norcold Dyson Racing for the American Le Mans Series' Mobil 1 12 Hours of Sebring. Smith will be partnering Chris Dyson in the team's #20 AER-powered Lola.
"Dyson Racing has always been at the top of racing in America," said Guy Smith. "It is a prestigious team to drive for with a great history like Bentley, who I won Le Mans with. So many great drivers have driven for them and I am honored to be in such company."
"I have known Guy for a number of years and have always admired his ability," said Chris Dyson. "He has been successful in both sports cars and open wheel racing. There is no question that he has the pace. But just as importantly, he has an innate understanding of the strategy and teamwork needed to win sports car races. This is a great combination to have in a co-driver. We've been trying to put something together for the past few years, and he's joining us at the right time. Guy will be a strong addition to Dyson Racing's Sebring effort."
Guy Smith also has a fourth and second in the 24 Hours of Daytona and four top four finishes in the 12 Hours of Sebring. "Dyson Racing will be testing at Sebring after Daytona in preparation for the season's first race there," commented Smith. "Now that the team's pair of Thetford / Norcold Lolas will be running Michelin tires this year, that should bring the competitiveness to a whole new level and we will be able to take the fight to the Audis. Dyson Racing was second in the ALMS championship last year. I look forward to joining Chris and (the sister #16 car's drivers) Butch Leitzinger, Andy Wallace, and James Weaver as we look to improve on that record."
Guy is no stranger to America, having done well in Indy Lights in 1998 and '99. In addition to driving in the Le Mans Endurance Series in Europe last year, Guy drove six races for Rocketsports Racing in Champ Car. He was engaged to Alicia Richardson following last year's Australian Champ Car race and resides in a 200-year-old home they have renovated in Yorkshire, England.
The 2005 American Le Mans series kicks off March 19 with the Mobil 1 12 Hours of Sebring in Sebring, Florida and will be televised on Speed Channel.

- - Monohull vs cat on extended passage? (http://www.sailnet.com/forums/cruising-liveaboard-forum/10967-monohull-vs-cat-extended-passage.html)
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
I''ve recently (Nov) participated in my first real blue water passage. I helped sail a boat from Aruba to Cayman. The tradewinds were 15 - 25 knts with 20kts most common. Seas were 6-8ft most of the way. I have advanced coastal skipper qualifications as well as some blue water experience, gained while sailing around Vancouver Island. However this was the first time I was continuously sailing non-stop for more that a week.
The surprising thing for me was how tough it was. Not because of physical labor, but exhausting. I managed very little sleep, and felt queezy for the first two days, then again after we turned from a reach to close hauled for the last two days. Never "lost it" but felt drained and didn''t feel like doing much of anything, other than my watches and actively participating in the sailtrim and checking for trafic.
The relentless motion of the boat (43ft center cockpit), the watch system chosen by the captain, the heat (no fan over my bunk and hatches closed because of spray) and the absence of a lee-cloth on my bunk, made for severe sleep-deprevation.
I did get used to it later in the trip and funnily enough felt more queezy the first night on hard land than on the boat at that time.
I learnt a lot, especially some things I''d do differently. It was a very rewarding experience for me nontheless. The crew bonded and got along extremely well with hardly any "words" of discontent. The fact that all of us had confidence that the others knew what they were doing and that the boat was well found, certainly helped.
My question is this: I''d like to hear from people who have sailed cats offshore. I''d like to hear whether cats also induce seasickness/queezyness in some people, and how the different motion of cats is tolerated over extended periods of time. I believe cats do well downwind and less well beating - how "less well"? I''ve heard the motion is jerky and can be violent. How would that stack up to monohull rolling?
M Murphy
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
Having done offshore passages on both monohull and catamaran, I can say that both can be uncomfortable but the downwind rolling motion on the monohull is absent on the catamaran. It is much more comfortable on a catamaran on this point of sail. Also, there is minimal heeling on all points of sail, so this in itself makes passages less tiring. The motion of a catamaran is quicker in a seaway because there is no ballast but one gets used to the motion in a day or so. I do get less seasick on a cat than a mono but only a little less so.
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
its my understanding that all multihulls are extremely stable once they are upside down
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
Hello starcresttoo. It seems like there is some dislike of catamarans here? All I can say to your comment is that monohulls are extremely stable once they are on the bottom.
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
I only get this second hand, but i talked to a very experienced delivery skipper (he was a crew member in Fastnet ''79 and has circumnavigated several times). He says he prefers a monohull''s motion to the "slap, slap, slap" of a cat, though admits the more modern cat designs have somewhat solved the problem.
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
M, you might find this discussion of an offshore cat sailing experience by a two-time (monohull) circumnavigator to be of interest:
One of the incidental observations by the author is the large number of (semi-interdependent) systems on the Cat he took from Brazil to the Caribbean. IME it''s very rare to find a modern Cat which isn''t (over)laden with all kinds of systems, somewhat spoiling the other benefits. ''Systems'' and ''Cats'' don''t have to be synonymous but IMO all the SPACE invites abuse.
I could tell you some pretty funny stories about Lewis, who started out with a basic English-built 35'' Cat he sailed over to St. Pete from Texas. There was just soooo much SPACE on his Cat, he couldn''t resist adding a few things...and then a few more. Meanwhile, he pulled away from the dock one day and his only working Volvo diesel blew up. But that didn''t seem to be a problem because, due to his Cat''s LARGE transom, he could rip out the engines and build a dual stainless open-bottomed boxes cantilevered off the back, to which he could mount twin outboards. By the time he left St. Pete, he had a PWC on deck, acres of canvas to provide U/V protection in that WIDE cockpit, double freezers in their LONG galley...well, you get the picture.
It''s easy for those of us sailing Lead Mines to sneer a bit at Cats; they are built in light-weight ways that make me nervous, offshore. But Lewis also a good example of how crews can benefit. When out of money (Lewis didn''t work much...) he''d charter the boat to young backpackers wanting cheap transport around the Caribbean, his boat would always make it to port (his lady friend holed one hull by hitting an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico during her night watch, on one of many exciting passages) and last I heard via Winlink they were adding yet more gear in a Panama Canal yard before heading into the Pacific.
Who says there aren''t still adventures to be had when off cruising...?
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
Thanks for all the responses so far.
I personally own a Dufour 36 classic so I guess the question is a bit academic. However there''s always "the next boat"...
I used to race Hobie cats and that was great. However probably not much overlap with a cruising cat.
When recently in Aruba I met a family who is cruising and living on a St. Frances 48 cat. Since the owner is an expatriate South African like myself, he invited me onboard and showed me his SA built cat. I came away jealous of the space, the equipment onboard and the "possibility" of more comfortable passagemaking. According to him, this cat doesn''t suffer from slamming. He does admit that the upwind motion is jerkier than a monohull and that they don''t "point" very well.
I guess one is always thinking about "the next boat". At the moment I''m content with my Dufour, although I''m doing coastal cruising only at the moment. I''ve never really considered cats untill I stepped aboard the St. Francis.

Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
After your good post I was hoping to read some informative stuff. Regrettably not so and you just got all the usual bias.
Maybe one day we will be able to get somebody who has done significant passages in both, perhaps in similar conditions to give a real analysis.
I''m a monosailer myself but I acknowledge that cats have a place and seem very attractive given their space and potential capability.
Even old sea dogs like me are interested in listening and learning to informed comment.
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
Spend some time cruising and living aboard and you will hear the same info from multihull cruisers.
The boats don''t go to windward well so plan your route accordingly. They don''t tolerate loads...that makes them slow like monohulls but without windward performance. 40''cat = 2 people lightly cruise loaded. The motion while anchored is sharp and uncomfortable...swells lift one hull and it falls, then they do the same with the other hull...double motion and fast. Chose your anchorage carefully. Running with storms can take you along as fast as the storm moves so don''t run. Windvanes are tough to keep adjusted due to rapid ap wind changes. Finding slips can be a chore or you have to pay for two. Your inflatable can be kept under the hulls so it stays out of UV rays and lasts longer. Shallow draft a plus. Cost a negative. Nice sunning platform when capsized.
Monohull vs cat on extended passage?
Here''s a follow-up to Bill''s post, taken from one of the Bumfuzzle logs (www.bumfuzzle.com). 35'' LOA Cat, attempting to make Galapagos from Las Perlas Is. off the coast of Panama. Rhumbline was SW, with wind 25 kts from the SW:
"By that night we were getting way off course, probably about 100 miles east of where we wanted to be.... The big problem now was that the wind was kicking up to 30 knots and the seas had continued to build. This combined with the current was causing us trouble. Picture this. We wanted to be heading at 230 degrees, which is right where the wind was. Instead we pointed the boat at 195 degrees. However, even though the boat was pointed at 195 we were actually moving at 100 degrees. That''s how much the[Humbolt] current and waves were pushing the boat. We couldn''t make any forward progress whatsoever. And obviously if we tacked the other direction we would be heading straight north, which we really didn''t want. Also, in order to even be able to make this direction, we had to be running an engine as well. So we were burning a lot of diesel.
"The next day we were only a little over 100 miles from the coast of Colombia. We started out the day by tacking back and forth which basically moved us back and forth along the same line not making any progress at all. We did this all day while I continued to download weather and try to figure out an alternate plan. The weather was still showing maximum winds of 12 knots from the same direction for the next 3 days, even though for the last 48 hours we hadn''t seen anything under 25. Finally at 3 p.m. I had a new plan. Unless we wanted to continue beating back and forth and wait for an improvement in the weather, we were going to have to head for shore. And since we were quickly running out of diesel, with over 600 miles to go to the Galapagos, we opted for running with the wind to Colombia."
The owners know littel about sailling and so the boat may have been more capable than this entry reflects. Also, she''s enroute to the Marquesas on the next leg, so the boat was probably loaded down...which is always a problem with Cats as they take loading poorly, especially when asked to go to weather.
Not that they don''t have their advantages...

Stocks ended mixed in light trading Wednesday ahead of Thursday's key nonfarm payrolls report.
The Dow Jones industrial average and S&P 500 each rose 0.1%, while the Nasdaq fell fractionally. Preliminary data showed volume falling 17% on the Nasdaq and 7% on the NYSE compared with Tuesday's levels.
Transportation equipment manufacturers, steel makers and mining stocks were among the day's biggest gainers, while airlines and automakers paced the decliners in the stock market today.
Greenbrier (GBX), a maker of railcars and other transportation equipment, soared 12% to a new high in huge volume after profit for the latest quarter jumped 106% to $1.03 a share, easily beating Wall Street's expectations. Sales rose 37% to $593.3 million, marking the third straight quarter of accelerating growth.
The stock is extended from multiple rebounds off its 10-week moving average.
Constellation Brands (STZ), a producer and distributor of alcoholic beverages, rose 2% after profit for the June-ended quarter spiked 182% to $1.07 a share, well ahead of analysts' forecasts. Sales jumped 127%, led by strong demand for its beer offerings, which include Negra Modelo and Corona Extra.
Constellation is 7% past a 84.58 buy point from a cup-with-handle base.
On the downside, Delta Air Lines (DAL) dropped 5% in more than double average daily volume, slicing through its 50-day moving average, after reporting weaker-than-expected international bookings in June.
The government's closely watched nonfarm payrolls report for June is due Thursday. Analysts expect that employers added 211,000 jobs during the month. The unemployment rate is forecast to hold steady at 6.3%.
Other data due Thursday include initial jobless claims for the week ended June 28 and the Institute for Supply Management's index of service sector activity in June.

Mischa, Luke spotted together in London
Subscribe to Filmibeat
"The Kooks had played a low-key gig to help launch The Flowerpot, a new venue... and the boys were enjoying drinks at an after-party upstairs. Mischa was originally at nearby (hotspot) Proud, but headed over to The Flowerpot once she knew Luke and his pals would be there," the Daily Star quoted a source as telling the London Paper
Mischa apparently attended Luke"s gig, and was spotted canoodling with him soon after. "Mischa made a beeline for Luke, and they soon started kissing, before then leaving the party to go back to Mischa's hotel room," the source added.

There is probably as much chance of a home-grown male singles champion here at the Australian Open later this month as there is of Lleyton Hewitt arriving at Melbourne Park in one of the city trams, but at least the Adelaide-born former world No 1 will offer the prospect of some excitement for locals when the year's first Grand Slam tournament begins in seven days' time.
Hewitt has been dogged by injuries in recent years, but the 32-year-old proved he can still be a threat to the very best when he beat Roger Federer 6-1, 4-6, 6-3 to claim the Brisbane International title on Sunday. It was Hewitt's first title since he beat Federer in the final at Halle four years ago.
"If I play like I did this week I have a chance of doing damage to some serious players," Hewitt said as he looked forward to the Australian Open. "It just gives me a lot more confidence going out there believing in how well I'm hitting the ball at the moment and that I can match up with the best guys. Obviously it's a different stage, winning three sets out of five against those guys, but that's why I still play the game."
Australia has not had a home male singles champion here since Mark Edmondson in 1976, though Hewitt went close nine years ago, when he lost to Marat Safin in the final. There have been hopes that Bernard Tomic might restore Australian glory, but the 21-year-old has yet to realise fully the potential he showed as world junior No 1.
Hewitt, meanwhile, has made a fine recovery from the injuries which had looked likely to end his career. The world No 60 has had five operations, most recently on a foot problem in 2012, yet has kept bouncing back. Remarkably, he is set to reclaim the Australian No 1 position from Tomic, who is expected to fall in today's updated world ranking list from his current position at No 51. "I think the most pleasing thing is what I've had to come through and the tough times in terms of surgery," Hewitt said. "Before the last surgery I made no secret. There were no guarantees I would be able to play again."
The other men's champions in the first week of the season were Rafael Nadal and Stanislas Wawrinka. Nadal beat Gaël Monfils 6-1, 6-7, 6-2 in the Qatar ExxonMobil Open final. Wawrinka won in Chennai, beating France's Edouard Roger-Vasselin 7-5, 6-2 in the final.
Serena Williams proved she has no intention of relinquishing her hold on the No 1 ranking when she followed up her win over Maria Sharapova by beating Victoria Azarenka 6-4, 7-5 in the final in Brisbane. Williams' sister, Venus, was beaten 6-2, 5-7, 6-4 by Ana Ivanovic in the final in Auckland. Last night, Venus pulled out of this week's Hobart International.
Meanwhile, Andy Murray will this summer attempt to become the fifth player in the Open era to win the Queen's Club title for a fourth time. The British No 1 yesterday confirmed he will defend his title at the Aegon Championships, which begin on 9 June.

Remember that Tadd Kid?
By Kickntrue on 2/12/07
Remember Tadd Fukikawa? Of course you do, the Sony Open was only a month ago. Well, he was playing more golf this weekend and won the Hawaii Pearl Open. While the Pearl isn't a big event with PGA Tour players, it IS professional. Tadd had to forfeit the winner's check of $12,000, to keep his amateur status. Not a HUGE payoff, for pro sports standards, but how hard would it be to turn down $12k for 3 days work? (Full Story)

Addiction is an increasingly recognized major global public health issue. A growing number of medical specialties, psychological and social science training programs, and professional associations are incorporating addiction as part of their training and continuing education curricula across a broad array of cultures. The need for an International Textbook in this expanding field has therefore become evident. Presenting a world view of the spectrum of addictions-related problems across different cultures, this reference volume highlights the main differences and similarities between clinical practices in the field of Addiction Medicine based on neurobiological similarities as well as epidemiological and socio- cultural differences. While the focus will be on marshalling the empirical evidence in support of the clinical practices, areas where information is mostly experiential will be noted. Examples where an international perspective is critical involve issues such as: the current shift of the smoking epidemic from developed to low and middle-income countries the growing influence on young people from the parental home and local neighborhood to role models potentially continents away the demonstrated benefits and limitations of international drug conventions which on the one hand have contained the problem of illegal drugs versus an increase in the use of a legal drug, like tobacco the need for cost effective translation of the clinical practices of Western health care settings to prevention and treatment strategies adapted to the needs of the rest of the world. This Textbook, which collates the experience and wisdom of more than 100 leaders in the field, is promoted by the International Society of Addiction Medicine (ISAM), founded in 1999, which has as its principal mission the education of practitioners in Addiction Medicine and their trainees worldwide (website: www.isamweb.org).

Owen Coyle acknowledged after a result which few would have predicted at half-time that sometimes taking a step backwards can mean a leap forwards.
That is exactly what the Bolton Wanderers manager did during an interval which began, he acknowledged, with a few choice words to a group of players who had spent the previous 45 minutes giving a good impression of men who had never met in their lives.
Bolton had not managed a single serious effort on goal and had barely completed a successful pass. That Stoke City were only leading 1-0 said more about their failure to take advantage than it did about Wanderers' resilience. The key to making the second half such a different story, Coyle said, was not so much giving Kevin Davies a partner up front in the shape of Ivan Klasnic, as doing so allowed Jack Wilshere to drop back.
"Sometimes you get lucky with changing things, and that's what we did. We brought Wilshere back into midfield because I knew he would go and take the ball regardless of who his opponent was, because he has got so much ability and he's brave and he's tough and everything you would want of a player, and to think he's only 18," Coyle said, with his usual machine-gun delivery.
"And then when Vladimir Weiss came on, he has got pace, he's exciting, he can take a man on, he can cross the ball, and he has made the goal, so I'm always pleased when players like that continue to develop and hopefully help the club to retain its Premier League status," Coyle continued, in the same breath.
If Wilshere brought Bolton back into the game, in that they actually began to see something of the ball, it was Weiss, given a rare 20-minute opportunity on the right-wing, who created the two goals scored by Matt Taylor which have in all probability secured Bolton's top-flight status. His trickery won the free-kick which Taylor drove low and deflected past Thomas Sorensen, and it was his late cross which Taylor, running to the near post, touched beyond the Stoke goalkeeper.
The problem for Coyle is that neither Wilshere, on loan from Arsenal, nor Weiss, likewise from Manchester City, may be at his disposal next season. "I would love to keep the two of them because I think they know how I want to go about it," Coyle said, a reference to his preference for a style of football to which the club are not accustomed. His opposite number, Tony Pulis, admitted he had been planning for next season since Christmas. "There are things that go on, and things you make sure you've got under cover and are just hoping that drop for you," Pulis said. It should be an interesting summer for both sets of supporters.
