Jimmy I'm with you sometimes you start reading these posts and not notice the dates.
Bottom line was a boat bought/found and if so what was it?
|Jimmy E
|Sorry about that last post- I missed the huge gap in the post dates
|Jimmy E
I spent almost a year doing the same as you....Asking lots of questions and poured over the web looking for opinions and boat reviews. First major boat purchase is worth agonizing over. Take your time!
I Started looking in the 22-24 ft range, but was never quite satisfied with the appointments.
Ended up purchasing a C&C 29 . A wee bit tender, but she handles nicely. Although nothing like the 29 MK1 , I hear nothing but rave reviews of the C&C 30....but in all fairness I am in the middle of C&C Country.
Regarding the size , I am so glad I didn't go smaller. The 29 gives me enough displacement i feel comfortable in the Great Lakes, but still small enough I can get great response from her as I continue to master the finer points of sail trim.
Good Luck with whatever you choose!
if you can afford it DO the extra 2 feet.
Really? think a bought it
Bottom job $15.00 a foot x 25 feet = 375.
Bottom job $15.00 a foot x 30 feet = 450.
Dock space.
10.50 a foot x 25 foot x 12 months = $3,150.00 per year
10.50 a foot x 30 foot x 12 months = $3,780.00 per year
Sure its a little more. But for the extra space well worth it.
In this size class 18 - 35 foot if you cant afford it stick with a trailer sailor.
but if you can afford it, dont skimp on size skimp on something else.
I can't comment on the C&C 30, but I do have an observation that may be helpful. We bought our Lancer 25 a couple of hours after we looked at a 23 footer (Precision I think). The additional 2 feet made ALL the difference. It was twice the boat for a couple of hundred more. But, for the additional accommodations I am probably paying a premium in ease of handling. A 30 footer might compound that. Also, our boat is trailerable. The real payoff there is slip/mooring fees, winter storage, hauling and the like. She's outside my kitchen window right now, snug under a blanket of fresh snow. We're redoing the upholstery this winter. No problem! She's right outside. Not stored on somebody else's land, 10 miles away. Many people do have larger, slipped boats and are very happy with the arrangement.
Sorry, I'm running at the mouth. Allow me to sum up,
30 foot good - 25 might be better for single lady
shoal keel maybe good
trailerable might work for you

C&C 30 single handed
I am interested in Jeff H response. I'm looking at a C&C 30 and a Pearson 30 for a first boat. I've crewed for 3 years now on an Express 30 and sailed a CL 14 for over 15 years. I too will do alot of single handed sailing after my son goes to college in 3 years. So I'm looking for any comparisons between single handling a C&C 30 and a Pearson 30. I will be sailing mosty on Lake Erie in the Great Lakes.
I've just finished reading every post in this thread -- fascinating! My family owned #104 from late 1971 when we watched her being built in NOTL to about 6 years ago when Dad jumped at the opportunity to grab a Nonsuch 354 for a great price. It really hurt to see the boat that I grew up on go to a stranger, but I'm told it is still well kept up and loved.
I completely agree with those who rejected Jeff's assessment of her performance. The Altair won enough hardware during her racing days to fill a small room, and we knew that some folks were going out and buying the "hottest" from year to year just to take us on (so that they could salvage their boat-dealer reputations!) As we slipped past a Ranger 3/4ton one Saturday afternoon, the owner looked at us with half a grin and said, "Those damn C&C's!"
The '30 is a great boat for a beginner, spicy enough to make things interesting yet predictable enough to stay out of trouble with. The advice to put time in on dinghys is some of the best advice yet (better than mine) because it will teach you how to be in tune with the boat. Then sail your 30 like a big dinghy; get the big headsail down before you think you need to, keep her on her feet more or less, and she will duly reward you. Our family of 4 would spend 2-3 weeks on extended cruising every summer on her, and she kept us well looked after. I'd buy one in a New York minute if I could, and the loyalty of those who have owned one is pretty good testimony!
Issues to watch for in a C&C 30 have been summed up well already, but I would add this:
1. Even our fairly early boat had an aluminum mast step. Much desirable over the wood, as we would occasionally get rain and condensation running down the interior of the mast.
2. Mandatory maintenance includes tightening all deck fasteners once per year. The balsa core in the deck is vulnerable to moisture and will quickly rot, leaving a spongy deck in the area (at best) and requiring a rather costly repair.
3. The portlights. Ours liked to leak, and it was a challenge to stop the leaks sometimes. They also hazed (ours were clear, of the pre-smoked plexi days.)
4. The Atomic-4. Our water pump impeller let go on our very first cruise (that was an exciting story, but for another time,) had several niggling quirks, and ultimately required having the valve seats reground. These were great engines overall, but I'd opt for a diesel if I could get a '30 with one.
5. The alcohol stove/oven. Well worth the trouble to convert to propane (or find a boat that is already so equipped.)
6. Rudder post bushings. Ours squalled from the first, not badly but just annoyingly. I understand some of the later ones were problematic. Keep a weather eye out -- not an expensive replacement, but something requiring attending to.
Whenever we were on the market for our boat, we were sailing an HR-25, built like a tank in the same plant that C&C later purchased. We started to look around for a used Erikson 29, because Eriksons are also well built, or else a Redwing 30, built by George Hinterhoeller. In the process of watching the 25 being built, we got to know Mr. Hinterhoeller himself, and a number of great folks that worked for him. Mr. Hinterhoeller's personal boat of choice? A C&C 30.
Glad to share more of what I know about them if you PM me -- I've already posted a small tome here!
The c&c 30 is a great singlehander. I sail it singlehanded often and frequently race it singlehanded (a lot of times I'm singlehanding even with another person on board). The primaries are reachable from the helm. The traveler is immediately forward of the wheel. The only times I need to go forward are to:
raise, drop, or change a headsail (I don't have roller furling)
reef the main (I have jiffy reefing but use a hook for the luff)
raise or lower an anchor (rare)
It's a small-enough boat to leave or pull into a slip by myself even in a strong crosswind.
Hey Liefie! I just happened on your thread! welcome to sailnet!
Looking at the C & C 30 the primary winches seem to be close nuff to the wheel to let you single hand . I use yacht braid on my jib sheets and I can just toss em around the winches most of the time and not leave the helm. Routing the main halyard to the cabin roof and back to the cockpit with a small winch and rope clutch are a lifesaver too.
Good luck on your search!
A Nice C & C 30
We have a well maintained 1974 in Vancouver BC that I posted about yesterday if you're interested. We just purchased an O'Day 39 in Bellingham and the C & C must go.

When Ben Guidugli arrived at the
Few can deny the younger brother certainly followed. Guidugli was a three-year starter at tight end and played in two BCS Bowl games.
He has 23 passes for 194 yards and 2 touchdowns this season. Much like the team, this year has been a disappointment for Guidugli, but it doesn't mask his strong career.
Guidugli notched 7 receptions for 149 yards and two touchdowns last season against
GoBearcats.com's Will Frasure caught up with Guidugli this week to talk about becoming a father, the NFL and his final game with the Bearcats.
Q: With this being your guys definite last week, has it been a bit surreal going out for practice on your last week?
BG: I don't think it's really hit us yet. Once that clock says on Saturday afternoon at about 3 or , then reality will set in for us. We're trying not to think about it right now. It almost feels like we'll just be back out there practicing next week like we always have. Maybe after the game and then Monday or Tuesday the next week, it'll probably start sinking it that it's actually over.
Q: So you'd say it hasn't hit you too much yet?
BG: No because we're still game-planning, watching film. We're still getting ready for the game. All those things, that's the routine we've been doing for the last four or five years. Right now, it's just the same process we go through every week going into a game.
Q: The last four years, you've gone on to play in a bowl. This year, it's obviously been tough not working toward one. What's that like not working toward one?
BG: It's definitely tough. We're the class that snapped the streak. I mean, we came in '06 and went to the International Bowl. It wasn't a great bowl, but the seniors that year, they didn't go to a bowl the year before and they were so proud to go to it. We didn't know about any BCS games when we came in. We thought the International Bowl was great. It just hurts knowing we're the class that stops that streak of going to bowls. It definitely hurts a lot.
Q: Speaking of bowls, what was it like to be a part of the program during the trips to the two BCS bowls?
BG: Definitely amazing, especially for myself since I got to play key roles in both '08 and '09. I feel like I was a part of that, along with the seniors of those years. Connor (Barwin) and them in '08 and then Tony (Pike), Mardy (Gilyard) and them last year. To be out there with those guys and help to get to those games, I think we're really proud. I can always look back and be proud of what we did those years.
Q: Obviously you haven't gotten time to reflect on it now, but when you look back in the future, you may look back and see you were a part of the rise of the UC program. How do you think you'll look back on being a part of the team during this span?
BG: The future will reveal what goes on here. Right now, I've played during the pinnacle of this program, the highest of the highs, so I'm proud of that fact, definitely.
Q: What would you say is different about yourself from the person you are now and the person that first stepped foot on campus here as a freshman?
BG: My blocking, definitely blocking in terms of what's different on the field. I came in here as a receiver and coach Dantonio moved me to fullback in his offense, so just blocking in general is what I've improved on.
Q: What about off-the-field? What's different with you personally?
BG: I have a family now, so obviously I can't be acting like the 18-year-old kid that came in here with my eyes wide-open as you begin living in the dorms and stuff. I went through all that. Now, I have my son, and that's my life right now. There's a different mindset and a different perspective right now as a fifth-year senior. I'm about to close the book on my chapter here at
Q: With Dantonio, you played fullback, and then you switched to coach Kelly. Now, you switched to coach Jones system. How have you dealt with the changing of coaches and systems?
BG: Obviously, it's never easy. The transition and change takes time. I feel like we've adapted well. This senior class that I'm going out with, we've obviously been through a lot together. We've leaned on each other for support and that's what we'll remember the most. The friendship we had with each other, the times we had together, the things like that. How we stuck together through so much change and so much stuff going on in our lives. That's what we'll reflect on the most.
Q: This year's definitely been an adverse one for you guys, how would you say you've guys have dealt with the year not going how you wanted it to go?
BG: Individually, too. I've never been hurt. I got hurt this year for the first time when I sprained my ankle pretty bad. The rehab process, watching the game from the sideline, all that was new for me. More than anything, this year has taught us perseverance and character because when things are going good, you can kick some of the bad under the rug and into a corner and hide stuff, but when things aren't all dandy, real character is revealed. I think that more than anything has come out this year, that we really do have some high character guys on this team. I love the guys I've gone through this process with. I'll never forget them
Q: Going into Saturday, with it being senior day and your last home game, how do you think you'll deal with it emotionally?
BG: Running out of that tunnel, I'm just gonna be ready to play the game to be honest with you. Obviously, we're not going to a bowl game, but for me personally and a team, we want to go out with pride and with a victory. Keep the River City Rivalry trophy here. We've got our other two rivalry trophies here with the Victory Bell and the Keg of Nails, so we want to keep this one in the case too. As a senior, we want to say we kept them all. Individually too. It's another opportunity to impress people from the NFL. Scouts turn on the film and watch this. They have some of the best defensive ends in the country, so I'm going to be getting my 1-on-1 matchups with those guys. There's a lot still at stake with this game. I'll be ready to play to be honest with you. Then maybe after I might get sad or shed a tear or something, but up until the clock says 0:00, I'm ready to beat Pitt.

So a lot of people recently have been asking me if they can have cameo's in the comic, caricatures done in their likeness (Don't ask me, I only write words, ask the Panda for caricatures) and while I'd love to, it's hard to find a way to make those characters funny and fit them in with the P&B universe.
On the other hand, in Jack's case, it's quite easy to make something funny. So I'm happy to read ideas and suggestions for characters, just be aware they may not make it in.

Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Tuesday August 6th, 2013 1:06am
The 2012 Inside Lacrosse Laxies are here! Make sure your voice is heard and get your votes in by the end of the month. You can find an overview of all the women's lacrosse players who are up for awards here, but keep reading for a more in-depth look at this year's nominees for Women's Player of the Year.
There were many players that really stepped up their game in 2012 and new stars were born across the Division I landscape. Of course, there were also the usual suspects — players who you're used to seeing light up the field in the spring. All had a significant impact on their teams' success, some even taking them to places they'd never been. Here are the nominees for Women's Player of the Year.
Michelle Tumolo, Syracuse
A first-team All-American and Tewaaraton finalist, Tumolo was the offensive catalyst for Syracuse, scoring 52 goals and dishing out a team-high 43 assists as the Orange advanced to the NCAA Championship Game for the first time in program history.
Shannon Smith, Northwestern
Once again, Smith was an unstoppable offensive power for Northwestern, finishing with a team-leading 66 goals and 28 assists, including two goals and two assists in the Wildcats' 8-6 championship game win over Syracuse.
Katie Schwarzmann, Maryland
The 2012 Tewaaraton Trophy winner, Schwarzmann finished the season with 72 goals and 22 assists in leading the Terps to the NCAA Semifinals.
Taylor Thornton, Northwestern
While primarily a defensive midfielder, Thornton shined on the offensive end with 33 goals and a team-high .611 shooting percentage. She also came up with 71 draw controls, second on the team only to Alyssa Leonard.
Brittany Dashiell, Florida
Florida's first Tewaaraton Trophy finalist, Dashiell tallied 44 goals, 25 assists and 46 draw controls in helping the Gators to their first-ever championship weekend.

I agree with you whole heartedly on this point Chris. There have been a couple people that I started to teach who would comment something like, "Boy, when I get my CCW I won't have to take that crap from people anymore". I emphasize to them that by CCW you have to be willing to take more crap than ever because of the responsibility you take on by carrying a firearm. If they don't understand that immediately the class and my instruction come to a rapid halt.
The CCW community has enough enemies without giving them fodder with which to confiscate and destroy our constitutionally and God given rights to defend ourselves from predatory creatures.
I haven't seen that occur in our little community here and that is one of the reasons I'm still here.
Responsible behavior is a must when you are going to carry firearms and Bumper, as well as the other mods do a great job in keeping that sort of attitude from invading this forum.
Just my .02 worth.

Can you believe that it really is going to be another year? I look at how I started this year, and am so proud of how I finished it.
In January my friend Kerstin started my blog for me. It was one of the BEST things for me. I have a love for pictures, and I love telling stories. Seems like blogging is the perfect fit for me.
In February we celebrated Valentine's day. Paul surprised me with a dozen beautiful red roses, and of course candy. I had my first REAL Idaho vending day, and realized how hard Paul really does work. I loved him more after that day.
In March I realized Savannah's imagination. I was able to take her on a Mommy/Daughter date that I will never forget. It was this month that we started to buy furniture for our empty house, and actually started to love my house. We celebrated Easter, and started to plan our BIG trip to Disneyland.
In April we celebrated our 9th year of wedded bliss, and I turned the ripe old age of 27. I finally admitted to my Dooney and Bourke addiction. =) I hated West Jordan, because of all of the WIND. We started flyin' kites, and enjoying our yard.
In May I got to celebrate being a Mother. It is a privilege to be Savannah's Mom. I am a lucky girl. I "trained" to run a 5k with all my friends. It was fun, and wouldn't have made it without someone running next to me! I started to really work with Savannah on her colors, and we had all of our fun "color days"!
In June we FINALLY get to Disneyland. It was one of the BEST weeks of my whole year. We continue with all of our home improvements. I admit to my cleaning product addiction, and make a few new friends in the process.
In July we cut Savannah's hair (gasp!). I still regret it. I love it, but it was SO MUCH easier to do when it was long. We enjoy summer activities like parades and the zoo. I bought "the dyson" that ruined my carpet, and made the next 3 months HARD! We had the firework show to remember, and one that I hope we can top next year. We bought the silver bullet(my car), and of course continued to do home improvements.
In August Paul and I figured out how much we really do LOVE each other. It was the start to one of our biggest trials. We got lots of hot dates, and I finally decided to cut back my hours at work so that I could be with the two most important people in my life. We cried, we held each other tight, and we endured.In September our trial continued. It was hard. We had Wally come stay for a couple of weeks. We went on more hot dates, and rekindled our flame. I took 10 days off work, and loved being a wife and Mom. I made huge decisions, and never looked back. I realized Paul loves me for better and for worse, and I love him the same.
In October we realized that being together and getting to know each other again was what the Dr. ordered. Paul celebrated 30 years and Savannah celebrated 4 years. We started making new traditions, and making fun memories with just the 3 of us.
In November I got in the Christmas spirit early. We shopped, wrapped all of our presents, and enjoyed Thanksgiving. Savannah also got to enjoy her first hot date with Uncle Shane.
December has been wonderful and stress free. It was a perfect way to end the year. I've learned a lot about myself, my marriage, my family, and I made BIG changes. Paul and I have talked at length about our new year. It is going to be full of goals, achievements, a vacation or 2, and maybe even a bun in the oven to end our 2009.
Happy New Year!

" 'Child," said the Voice, 'I am telling you your story, not hers. I tell no one any story but his own.' " — The Horse and His Boy, chapter 11
Book Review: The Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis {rewrite}
18 October 2011
|This post is:
4 epistles:
I actually read this book and I didn't particularly like it. I found it too confusing...ReplyDelete
Love this book so much! Great review.ReplyDelete
I know how you feel about missing the Pevensies though...that's why next time I might read them in the order they were published rather than the chronological order (they were published: Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, then Prince Caspian, then The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and so on) :)
I LOVE The Horse and His Boy... I actually don't think I read that book immediately after The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe... maybe after Silver Chair or something, so I already has settled that in my head that the Pevensie children wouldn't pop up all the time. I loved all the characters though, and the scenes with Aslan were really touching! I wish, I wish they can make this one into a movie as well.... *sigh*... great review, Elizabeth, thanks!ReplyDelete
Ohh, I'm so very glad you decided to go back and finish it and then loved it! The Horse and His Boy is honestly my favorite Narnia book. I adore every little bit of it.ReplyDelete
Part of me would absolutely love for it to be made into a movie, but the other half is scared that they'd mess it up (because I obviously want to be Aravis, duh ;p).
Lovely book, lovely review! ♥

The Bohensky Dissection Serieshas been used successfully by more than 300,000 biology students nationwide. Each book in the series is designed to guide the student through the study of anatomical structures. The books do this through the use of clearly marked photographs and illustrations. Accompanying text offers the student both easy-to-follow dissection instructions and factual information about the section under observation. At the end of each chapter there are tests which can be used for self-study or for grade course evaluation.
Within the traditional dissection portion of a biology course, many programs include the sheep heart, eye, and brain. Within many of these guides, the author has incorporated photographs of these structures to more closely follow standard course curriculum. The author also provides important information on human organs such as the eye, ear, and heart. In this way, the student can better understand the role and function of these organs as they relate to human life processes.
Add to this each book s large-size format, lay-flat spiral binding, and reasonable cost, and you can see why the Bohensky Dissection Series has become one of the most successful dissection guides used throughout this country s schools.

My point exactly....
I see this stuff all the time... Audiophiles who claim they can hear --actually hear-- bit jittering in a latched sound chip... measured in nanoseconds... Gamers who argue high frame rates on 60hz monitors... hot rodders who debate the merrits of different paints in their race times... People, this is called "lost in the minutia!" and more often than not it does little more than empty your wallet, which is the manufacturer's intent.
The days when the goal was to provide a quality product to fill a consumer need are over. These days it's all about finding new ways to part you from your money... and most often with expensive crap that, by and large, does nothing new or better.
Coolers are a good case in point... Zalman seems to produce heatsinks artistically, looking like some giant alien flower growing in your computer rather than on any scientific bases... they almost all ignore the primary rules of good cooling...
1) You need MASS pull heat off the device.
2) You need surface area to dissipate the heat.
3) You need airflow to take the heat away.
A long time ago, back when Toms Hardware had just released their "What happens if you take off the heatsink" video and AMD was exposed as a fire hazard, I got into this debate and described a cooling solution for AMD chips that ended up being pretty much what they did with their x64 line... big plate on the chip, lots of mass, tall fins and a decent fan... All very basic, but all based on sound science.
Now NVidia is doing the AMD thing... way too much power dissipation, tiny heat exchange surfaces, inadequate ventilation etc... and, as I pointed out from the start, their performance doesn't appear to be anything to brag about... especially when you consider there's probably very little difference in performance as the price climbs exponentially...
At the risk of over-driving this point. The guy who's computer I fixed with the $35.00 card, went out and bought a far more expensive ATI card and got the same result... It's a common --and painfully stupid-- consumer mistake to think that "expensive equals better", when most often it merely means "expensive".
The one review I'd love to see, but I'm betting no reviewer would ever do is the "How much better is it?" comparison... $35.00 ATI vs $150 ATI... $40 NVidia vs $250 NVidia... just how much more performance does your money get you?

I have a .png image with some gradient (something like inner shadow for a 600×420 div). Under the same conditions it bands in browser while in photoshop it's fine. Yes, i tried setting 16bit and 32bit (and remaking the shadow) mode, and every possibility in save for web and devices.
Here's the problem: http://alelujatj.hj.cx/vcard/web/# when you set the box color to #0D0D0D. Is it possible to go without it?
I struggled a bit to notice it. Have you used what I sent you on Forrst? (nomorebanding.com)
Yes. It helps in photoshop, and thank you again, its awesome But when when I try to get it out of photoshop it's the same.
edit: not exacly the same but very similar.
It's probably due to browser blending transparent images. Mix 8bit color and 32bit color and you get 8bit color. If that's the case then there's nothing I can do here.

Emma Roberts and Chord Overstreet Break Up!
Did you know January is the most popular months for breakups? Good thing we're moving on to February! Yesterday, on the last day of National Breakup Month, Emma Roberts officially ended her relationship with Glee's Chord Overstreet. And we thought they were so cute together!
Apparently, Emma just hasn't been feeling it for months, but instead of making a clean break, she tried to phase Chord out by ignoring his texts, gently making fun of him, and suggesting they spend New Year's apart. But Chord just wasn't getting the message, so she had to spell it out for him.
The two beautiful blondes started dating after meeting at the Coachella Music Festival nine months ago. Even though it took Emma a little while to end the relationship, she remains on good terms with Chord and they are staying drama-free.
Are you sad Emma and Chord broke up? Do you ever struggle with telling a BF you want to end it? Speak up in the comments!

Severe thunderstorms possible tonight
Thunderstorms will continue to march off to the southeast this afternoon, bringing heavy rain and lightning. Small hail and gusty winds are possible with these storms. The intensity of the storms are weakening as they move across central Indiana.
It will be still a hot and sticky day with cloudy skies and temperatures will climb into the mid 80s.
With the high humidity, heat indices will be in the low 90s. A few more isolated storms will be possible late this afternoon.
A cold front will move in tonight and that will bring more organized thunderstorms. Some storms could be strong to severe, with the main threats of damaging winds and large hail. An isolated tornado cannot be ruled out. It will stay muggy and mild overnight with a low in the low 70s.
A stray shower will still be possible on Tuesday but most areas will stay dry. Temperatures will climb into the low 80s.
Cooler and drier air arrives on Wednesday. The humidity will continue to fall with highs in the low 80s.
The 4th of July Holiday weekend looks fantastic. High pressure will provide and sunny and tranquil pattern with highs in the upper 70s and low 80s.

Has anyone else been unable to pair this with a PC? I've tried numerous configurations (authentication en/dis, all modes, etc.) and this thing will not pair with 2 popular BT modules I've tried. It never asks me to enter a pass code, it just fails and there's no place for me to disable asking for one or pre-enter one in the software for either of my adapters.
No public wish lists :(

(What did you think I was talking about?)
It's true, I've been doing some writing on the side. A lot, actually, and it's been going on for years now. My fiction writing days started when I was a wee girl of eight years old. The first long story I have is in an old vinyl coated notebook emblazoned with the word "Disco!" The story is a poignant tale of a rabbit and how he got long ears. It has never seen the light of day.
Neither has any of my fiction, for that matter, until several months ago when I published my first collection of funny short stories. Where are they, you ask? Why have you not been informed? Here's where my confession comes in: I've been writing under the name of Michelle Sandoval when no one was looking. I'd contemplated sharing this with you from the beginning, but the stories that this Michelle character writes are sometimes a bit edgy. There are no herbs involved. And some of her characters even swear.
The first book is an original and unexpected title. It is called This Book is Funny: Humorous Short Stories, Satire, and Scripty Sorts of Things. Most of the stories are quite short, just perfect for reading on your Kindle while waiting in line at the store or sitting on hold to yell at your internet provider who has one more time screwed up your bill, so in order to get your heart rate back down while listening to their crappy hold music, you feel the need to read something humorous to ease the tension building behind your eyeballs.
As Luck Would Have It: Stories of Humor, Pathos, & the Occasional Farm Animal. These stories are still funny but a bit longer and a bit more sentimental, set in the era of the Great Depression. And there's a super cute donkey on the cover. Okay, it's a mule. I know it's a mule. But do you have any idea at all how difficult it is to find a good photo of a donkey? I came an inch from stealing one off the internet, or just plain stealing a donkey and then photographing it, but then I'd really have something to confess to.
Now that the secret is out and my soul is cleansed, it's time for me to go back to work. Ms. Sandoval wants to take over and work on that humorous mystery novel we got going. And I plan on converting her to green smoothies, but she's resistant, this one. I think she's hiding Oreos under the desk.

Every time there is any hint of a coastal storm all the people who planted their homes on the edge of the beach start saying how the town/city/state need to shore things up for them. And it gets done. Why are their homes any more important than a homeowner who lives near a river that floods? No one helps them. IRRITATES the crap out of me!! This is an older article but the same thing is going on now for the storm next week. This article goes into how $5.5 million has been spent. WHY??

Identify your old mystery family photos with these guides by Maureen A.
Dearest Ma got my proofs to day only one out of five that looks like me.
The rest looks as if I was going to cry. The two of Ed and I are good.
Grace wants to know how much the cards are up there. She wants to sent
you some money for you to get some. With lots of love and kisses Ella.
Sent to Mrs. Charles Hoxie, 36 Twelfth St. Norwich Conn
While I'm working on the Hoxie family, let me know about any interesting family history-related messages you've found on old postcards.
Can't wait to discover what this says. Let's solve this mystery!
Searching for keywords relating to Memorial Day and Luisitania with the year 1918 on subscription newspaper website GenealogyBank gave me the answer. Bingo! This mostly unidentified photo now has a story.
Down on the peaceful Potomac two gigantic rose wreaths were set adrift, markers for the graves of the Lusitania dead. Daughters of the American Revolution launched the first: the crew of a British warrior the second.
The lack of foliage in the background and the mourners' heavy coats suggest it's cold outside. These details further narrow the time period. It's winter or spring of 1918/1919.
While this image depicts a sad moment for Pam's relatives, for their descendants the very existence of this picture is worth celebrating.
Next week I'll try to spot great uncle Ben.
Solve your family photo mysteries with these books by Maureen A. Taylor:
This centennial of the start of World War I is a great time to research your WWI ancestors. See our WWI research guides for soldiers and women in the July/August 2014 Family Tree Magazine.
Patti's taking another look at her family history to see if she can find a family with several girls. There are three girls in the picture as well as the little boy in the sailor suit on the left. The gender of the child being held by the man in the back row isn't clear.
So how do the clues add up? I'll be back next week with the rest of the story. I love a good mystery—don't you?
It's a real stumper. Let's start with the picture: It's a 20th-century photo—after World War I, based the design of the woman's collar.
I'm off to the library to figure out the rest of the clues and double-check a few things. I'll be back next week with more details.
Hello. Rec'd letter other day ans soon. What are you doing? Still working in store? Its snowing here today and is quite cold. I am feeling pretty good but can't stand much work. Lee is at work. Will come home soon. Do you like the pictures? Lo Desca.

The men's ties are very Western in style. Kathy made one other comment about something I pondered: Why dress in suits and wear the riding glove? She thought this picture probably commemorated a special event, such as winning at the rodeo. I have no proof of this detail, but the explanation makes sense.
1. Never write on the front. On the back is OK if you use a soft lead pencil for cardboard-mounted images, or a special photo-marking pen (such as a Zig marker) for 20th-century resin-coated snapshots. You can tag digital images using photo organizing or editing software.2. Use the full name whenever possible. Wouldn't it be great to know who "Nan's feller" was? While this woman knew everyone's name, it's doubtful that identification lasted past her generation. 3. We'll probably never know why all these folks got together on a summer's day. If there's a special occasion associated with the image, include a short note.
There's no mystery about the relative depicted. Kathryn
knows the last woman in the middle row is her maternal great-grandmother, "Mom
Battle" (Mary Clement Crawford Battle). When Mary's husband died in September
1909, instead of staying home, she traveled in Europe.
Kathryn would like to know when the picture was taken. The
numbers on the lower right side of the picture, 22.214.171.124, elaborate that
detail. I believe the first number is the photographer's notation for his 51st picture, but the last three digits are clearly the date.
Using the European
method of notation, Mom Battle had her picture taken on the second day of August, 1910. Her black attire, including hat and coat, supports this date. Victorian mourning
standards required widows to wear black for the first year after a husband's death.
Centuries of visitors have marveled over the natural beauty of
the Gap. You can read more about it in Black's Guide to Ireland (1902), available through Google Books.
A documentary, Trip Through the Gap
of Dunloe (1903), probably boosted tourism in the area. A key stop on the immortalized tour was Kate Kearney's Cottage, with its legendary history of spells cast by
Kate herself, followed by food and drink. Visitors could then hire a horse-drawn conveyance to take them through the Gap and back. Today the cottage still offers refreshments and tourists can still take a horse and buggy.
Kathryn also wondered who else is in this picture. I have a
question for her, "Did Mom Battle travel alone or with a companion?" A traveling companion would've been along for this ride. The rest of the
folks are just fellow travelers, such as the young honeymoon (perhaps) couple cuddled up in the
second row.
This is a great photo of a woman who decided to enter the next
phase of her life with a sense of adventure!

PITTSBURGH — Emmanuel Sanders had no idea that the Steelers still had a flicker of hope in the playoff chase.
He figured the NFL postseason was something he would be watching from his couch in a few weeks.
"I've said several times, it's gonna suck being at home in the month of January," Sanders said after Sunday's 30-20 win over Cincinnati, "watching guys continue to play football in search of the Lombardi Trophy. That's what we play for. That's what we work hard for. Hopefully it'll come next year."
Mathematically, the Steelers have not been eliminated from playoff contention, although making the playoffs is a long shot to say the least.
When asked if he knew the Steelers weren't eliminated, Sanders had a puzzled look on his face.
But this isn't meant to be a criticism of Sanders for not knowing that.
If anything, it furthers the belief that the Steelers have not given up on the season, or on each other.
If Sanders thought the Steelers were eliminated, there are other guys in that locker room who thought the same thing.
We have heard the theory that professional athletes don't really care much about winning; they're just happy to collect a paycheck that you and I can only dream of, and they're even happier if they do it all healthy and in one piece.
Surely, there are some cases of that, but that didn't seem to be the case in Pittsburgh on Sunday night.
There was Sanders, the scapegoat three weeks ago in Baltimore after a dropped two-point conversion, shedding two tacklers and fighting to get a key first down with about 5ᄑ minutes left. He caught the third-down pass well short of the first-down marker, but he scratched and clawed his way and got the first down by six inches.
It allowed the Steelers to run three more plays and eat two more minutes off the clock.
"I never quit," Sanders said.
He's not the only one. If you learned anything from Sunday night's win over the first-place Bengals, it's that there's no quit in the Steelers. The have said that all along, ever since the 0-4 start. They put their money where their mouths are Sunday night.
There was right tackle Marcus Gilbert, already beat up and battered, injuring his ankle when Le'Veon Bell ran into his back and was tackled into the back of Gilbert's legs.
Kelvin Beachum seemed to suffer a similar injury in a third-quarter pileup.
Both tackles labored through painful nights. But they didn't quit, and they were a huge part of the win. The Steelers ran for 106 yards against the fifth-ranked rushing defense in the NFL.
"It's a team that's not stopped fighting," Gilbert said. "We play this game for a reason because we love the game of football, and every guy proved that today. We came out there with a sense of urgency, and every guy battled. A lot of the guys, especially on the line, refused to come out, refused to be the reason why we didn't … win the game. We've just got to finish these last two games up."
"I was going to finish that game no matter what," Beachum said.
The Steelers won't be pulling a Redskins move and benching their star players to protect them from injuries. Surely, the brave fans who decide to sit in the bitter cold at Heinz Field are thankful for that, for not having to watch Bruce Gradkowski for three hours.
There's no quit in the Steelers, and if you're a fan, that's all you can ask for at this point.
It just makes one wonder, what could have been if these Steelers showed up all season?

where can i find literal meanings and real meanings of idioms?
You will enjoy finding out about idioms. Some of them are really strange.
Here are some really good sites:
can you please tell me the difference between an idiom's literal meaning and its real meaning? give example please.
A Dime A Dozen:
Anything that is common and easy to get.
The literal meaning of "a dime a dozen" would be that 12 of something would cost 10 cents.
The figurative meaning is that something is common and usual... easy to find. You can say that anything that is readily available is " a dime a dozen".
Look at the meanings of the actual words to see an idiom's literal meaning.
The first idiom in the first site above is:
"A Bird In The Hand Is Worth Two In The Bush:"
The literal meaning is that if you're trying to catch birds, it's better to have one bird in your hand than to know that there are two birds in a bush.
The real meaning: "Having something that is certain is much better than taking a risk for more, because chances are you might lose everything."
so heres my example of what i understood.
Drive someone up the wall:
the real meaning of this is: To irritate and/or annoy very much.
so what would be the literal meaning of this one?
The literal meaning would me to force someone to climb a wall.
alrite! think im getting the hang of it! thanx alot!

School Beat
First impressions… with anxiety or confidence!
by LISSA WEIDENFELLER, Principal
North Rockford Middle School
Did you know that it only takes 30 seconds to make a first impression? Once a bad first impression is formed, it takes approximately 20 additional encounters to change that opinion. With so much on the line, being anxious about meeting someone for the first time is normal, especially when it is someone that you feel is important or that you want to impress. An example could be a job or college interviewer, instructor, teacher or coach. To overcome these anxieties, you must understand the basics of first impressions. According to the Flippen Group, authors of Capturing Kids' Hearts, the following cues are what people notice when you are meeting others for the first time. They include:
• facial expressions—Smile it is free!
• handshake—firm, but not too strong. Do not twist your wrist. Twisting your wrist is a sign of domination.
• tone of voice—Speak clearly and loud enough for the person to hear you. A positive attitude is communicated through your voice.
• dress and grooming—The situation will determine how you need to dress. Regardless of the situation, your attire should look complete.
• eye contact—Make it!
• posture—Do not slouch or pull away. Lean in when handshaking.
• level of relaxation—Feel confident. Remember the past successes in your life that will make you feel proud.
• energy—Are you excited and feel honored to meet this person? If so, let your energy show it.
Practice these skills and do not be afraid to recognize and initiate contact with someone else. They will at least know that you care! When you meet someone for the first time and start to engage, it is the first step to building a potential relationship. Remember, your tone and body language must say, "I am enthusiastic about meeting you," or "I am excited about being here, and I want the position."
With these basic skills, I hope the next time you have an interview or meet someone for the first time, your anxiety will be reduced and your confidence will help you make a good first impression.

Hi there!
Would you concider helping me get my PSD Template accepted? Paid or FREE help? If so, please shoot me an email from my profile contact method.
I would highly appreciate quality helpers
Thanks a lot!
Hi zemzem,
I'm not yet accepted also for my PSDs(currently reviewing) but from what i saw about what you did, the quality is not for TF. Why?
1. You have to focus on Typography 2. You have to take care of the sizes of the elements(not use random sizes for the same elements accros the page) 3. You have to properly arrange all the elements on horisontal and vertical. 4. You have to use a nice color pallete that won't look old or not usable for large masses. 5. You have to use icons comparred with the other elements(like text nearby) to look like having the same aspect ratio, size compared with one-another.
And so much more… Things like obvisously you have to know better how to design then just ask here how to design.
Hope this helps. Cheers! Cristian C.
Hi guys! To help out the newbies design a PSD, reply here with your top rules when you create your typography such as what fonts to use, what sizes to be used on regular, H1….etc(in pixels), and other rules you follow.
As i see, the style you approached is very old. You need to be sure that what you design is something that is 2014+ based to get accepted. Also typography isn't your strongest point, isn't it?
iKreativ said
Honestly. This will never be accepted as a PSD, nowhere near good enough.
Even as a HTML template where standards are not as tight it would need significant work to be approved.
The visuals are poor, spacing and alignment need work, typography is very bad.Overall you need to spend a lot more time on this.
I appreciate your time to check this out if you'll pin every issue from my design on that link… It will help me get a better version of it and improve it.
Thanks a lot!
Please check this preview. Let me know your oppinion and pin there what's wrong.https://redpen.io/xuy5r8
Hi there!

The definition of the celebrity booker
Are you going to produce a high-quality movie? Need a famous, professional actors or actresses? If you are, the celebrity booker paul Scott Adamo could be the best booker. He is the best in the business to get you the professional actor and actress that you need for your production. However, if you are new in the industry or simply a student of a broadcasting school, then we'd like to share with you about the definition of the celebrity booker.
A celebrity booker or talent agent is a profession of a person who in charges to find jobs for film directors, author, actors, actresses, athletes, musicians, and models, journalists, screenwriters, and all of the people who want to work in the broadcast, entertainment, or television business. An agent also promotes, supports, and defends his or her client's rights. The talent agencies divided into several specialties, such as music agencies, broadcast journalist agencies, voice-over agencies, literally agencies, commercial and also modeling agencies.
Having an agent is not mandatory, however, it is easier for an artist or broadcast journalists to get their jobs by using the services of a talent agent, especially for the newcomers. Generally, the agents are paid by the artist as much as 10% of the star's profits. It's referred as the "ten percenters" by many agents in the business. The works of all talent agents are governed by various regulations. Those regulations created by the artist's unions and legal jurisdictions in the area where the agent works. Many associations of talent agencies are available to help that artist to get the best job for them. However, in the California, an agent is required to have a license of the California Labor Code due to they worked with lucrative contracts.
We hope this info could help you to understand more about the definition of a celebrity booker. Remember the Paul Scott Adamo to get the best service in the business. Have a nice day!

Sweet Heat
Here in the south it is poor seamanship not to have a good salsa to compliment meals while cruising. :D
I would love to hear about your recipes for salsas that you make while cruising. Tell us how you serve them as well.
To start things off, here's my favorite:
3 - 4 Medium Sweet Onions
3 - 4 Medium Ripe Tomatoes
3-12 Fresh Jalapeños (To suit your heat tolerance!)
3-12 Fresh Habeneros (Start easy with these but work up the number you use) Optional but you should be bold ! Wear rubber gloves when handling these peppers and DO NOT PUT YOUR FINGERS IN YOUR EYES....You were warned
1 15 oz can of crushed pineapple
1 4-6 oz bag of dried apricots
1 4-6 oz bag of dried/candied mangos
1 4-6 oz bag of dried/candied pineapple
1 4-6 oz bag of dried/candied tropical fruits
2 lemons or limes
Ground Clove
Ground Cinnamon
Dice onions and tomatoes to medium size
Decide how many peppers you plan to use, remove the seeds and finely chop the peppers
Chop all of the fruits to a fine mix and add to the Onions, tomatoes and peppers in a mixing bowl
Add the canned pineapple including the juice
Sprinkle a little ground cinnamon and clove onto the mix (to taste but not too much)
Squeeze the juice of the lemons or limes into the bowl and then gently mix the ingredients together
Cover and put in the refrigerator or ice box to blend flavors for several hours, overnight if you can wait! If you decide to eat right away the peppers will be much hotter....
The juices from the pineapple and lemons or limes will rehydrate the fruit bits, the acids in the juice will moderate the heat from the peppers somewhat and mix will become a great combination of hot and sweet flavors.
This is great served on chips but also goes well when added to your salad bowl and especially on grilled fish or steak. It keeps well and the flavors continue to develop until it's gone.....
Thanks in advance for sharing your favorites.
Regards, John
Not much of a candied fruit guy but I just might have to try this...Thanks
BTW, you should generally wash your hands before touching any parts of your body after handling habenero or other hot peppers... One of my best friends' husband ended up in the emergency room after making a salsa with habaneros and then going to the bathroom without washing his hands before going... we laugh about it now...but it kind of put a crimp in the day at the time.
If you're sensitive to hot foods, then you should probably wear gloves when handling habaneros. :) You've been warned... BTW, in terms of full disclosure, I'm a chilihead... :) Got bottles of stuff like Blair's After Death Sauce in my fridge.
I too had a friend who didn't wash his hands. He suffered a bit, and howled like a wolf for the moon!!!!!!!!!!!
I spent a year on the Texas/Mexico border and really grew to enjoy a very basic salsa:
Diced fresh tomato (be sure to include the juice)
Diced onion (my preference being Vidalia)
Diced fresh pepper (my choice is a mix of poblano and jalapeño - I stay away from the habaneros)
Chopped cilantro
Salt to taste
Splash of lime juice (optional)
Splash of tobacco (usually the green or chipotle)
Amount of each ingredient is usually based on taste and what I have on hand.
My other favorite is roasted salsa. We would sometimes make it over mesquite coals at my friends ranch. Ingredients are basically the same, but we would roast the peppers, tomatoes and onion over the fire before chopping up or putting in a blender for the salsa.
And don't forget the guacamole! Just mix/crush the avocado with some onion, tomato, lime juice and salt to taste.
Washing your hands helps only partially.
The hot substance does not dissolve in water. It dissolves much better in oil.
So, to remove it this helps:
1. Wash your hands normally (to remove some)
2) Oil your hands (either with edible oil or with a hand cream and rub well
3) Wash again to remove the rest of hot stuff and oil from your hands.
4) repeat if needed.
If you use liquid soup with added oils it can be of some benefit.
And you want me to eat this stuff....no thanks
My favorite 'food' is buffalo wings, but if it burns my hands it doesn't go in my mouth, period.
But guys, the stuff that makes it spicy is good for you and helps the cardiac system...provided it doesn't kill you first. :) Of course, some of you didn't grow up eating things like my grandma's kimchi. :)
I thought I was the only one who adds minced veggies, grilled over mesquite smoked coals.

Is it possible to do Fake Authentication to my AP which has turned on MAC filtering?
Or have other possible ways to crack my WEP key with no clients other than turns off the filter?
do a forum search first!
fake_authentication [Aircrack-ng]
scroll down to 'MAC access controls enabled on the AP'...
Or read through dozens of threads within this and in the old backtrack forum!
Good start: http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forum...ve-looked.html
http://www.exploit-db.com/papers/296 <<<scroll down to: 'Bypass Mac Filtering'
Yes you can if you already know the mac address of a legitimate station. If not, your only way is to try a mac bruteforce with Mdk3 for example, but the result of this attack is very unsure as there are many mac addresses to test and it will be very very long.
Use Airodump to sniff the network until a station comes up, this is the best way.
*ding ding* for Snayler, our winner.
spoof _your own_ mac addys connected to _your_ network. if you don't know _your_ mac addresses, or don't know how to get _your_ mac addresses, do some reading here for windoze or here for unix/linux.
and don't cry to me that the link is for win98, it's all the same right up to *at least* vista.
The windows version of "ipconfig /all" works in all versions of Windows.
So of course he knows if there is mac filtering enabled or not, and if so he also knows the mac address of a valid client because he's talking about his own network. So when I told him this is the best way, this was meant to make him understand that trying to bruteforce his own mac filtered access point will be very hard to do. There is no reason to search for illegal activity since he's talking about his own network from the beginning, and be sure I won't give any advice that would help people to get into a network which is not theirs.Quote:

More than meets the eye in diabetes
Diabetes mellitus is a rapidly growing 'epidemic'. The number of adults with diabetes has doubled since 1980 to an astronomical figure of 347 million globally.
This rise is attributed to an ageing population, increased obesity and lack of exercise. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus in Malta is about 10 per cent of the whole population, with 90 per cent being the mature, late onset type. This condition has serious public health implications because of its associated morbidity and mortality.
About four million deaths each year are attributed to diabetes-related complications worldwide, half of which are linked to cardiovascular disease, including heart attacks and strokes. However, their quality of life is also affected.
Two per cent of diabetics are blinded with the condition and a much higher percentage are left partially sighted. Poor peripheral circulation and neuropathy lead to difficulties in walking and foot ulcers that may require an amputation of a lower limb. Kidney failure may require long-term dialysis.
Therefore, diabetes mellitus is a very costly disease which, apart from being lethal or crippling, is a huge burden on health economics and social security. The costs of diabetic care are not only the myriad of surgical or medical treatments required but also the implications on the social welfare, be it sick leave, reduced work abilities, early pension or disability benefits, just to mention a few.
Diabetic eye problems are relatively preventable. Laser treatment has been around since early 1970s and it is a well known fact that it is a very effective treatment if applied early enough. However, the timing of laser treatment is essential because benefit falls sharply if treatment is applied late. Therefore, in order to optimise the timing of laser treatment in diabetic eye disease a proper screening programme has to be in place. The disease has to be detected before any symptoms are experienced and, therefore, a good screening programme means that all diabetics over the age of 11 years need to be examined on a regular basis.
That such regular check-ups of diabetic patients' eyes are beneficial has been proven by the Icelandic group, which, on the institution of the screening programme, managed to cut the diabetic blindness rate from 2.4 per cent in 1980 to below 0.5 per cent by 2000.
Due to technical advantages in telescreening, leading to increased screening efficiency, from a public health standpoint, diabetic eye disease is one of the most cost-effective health procedures known. The cost of screening is far lower than the cost of diabetic blindness.
Therefore, what are we waiting for in Malta? Our relatively small contained population renders itself more feasible to screening. Presently, some diabetics are screened by their ophthalmologist or diabetologist at Mater Dei Hospital or privately. Others have their retinae/fundi photographed at the diabetic clinic at Mater Dei, some are examined by their GP and there are those who do not bother at all until they experience a probem with their eyesight. The end result is a hotchpotch of widly differing levels of screening from the best possible to none at all.
The common factor is that, at present, regular check-ups are the responsibility of the patients when, in fact, the onus has to be on the health authorities.
Whether it would mean using the health centres again or using a mobile unit, manned by a medical photographer, that visits different villages on the island on a regular basis is something one can discuss. One thing, though, I'm sure about is that active screening has to be instituted because passive screening has proved to be very ineffective and costly for the patient and the Government. We have to make the extra effort to screen patients. Patients absconding from screening would be very costly.
It is unbelievable to know that the Diabetic Clinic at Mater Dei still lacks the full-time service of a dietician and a psychologist. Tailor-made dietary plans for diabetics are crucial and, in my experience, the biggest threat in cases of diabetes mellitus is the state of denial of some patients.
The services of a psychologist would be very useful not only in this scenario but also in dealing with the emotional distress the diagnosis and the disease itself may cause, encourage family participation, deal with adolescent concerns and advise how to cope with schooling or employment.
In Malta, diabetic care and control of its sequelae has to be a prime objective.
Active tight retinal screening of the whole diabetic population is essential to prevent or limit a devastating and costly eye disease. Doing nothing is not an option, especially when faced with the spiralling costs of diabetic eye care.

If you live in Alberton and you've developed cancer since 1996, when a Montana Rail Link train derailed and spilled, among other hazardous chemicals, a tanker's worth of chlorine, your cancer is probably not a direct result of exposure to the toxic cloud that contaminated the area on that bleak spring day, according to preliminary research by the Montana Department of Health and Policy Services (MDHPS). Probably not.
The problem, says Todd Damrow of the MDHPS, is that cancer is such a commonly occurring disease among Americans that "Each of us stands a one-in-three chance of getting cancer in our lifetimes, and statistics show that three of four families will be affected by cancer."
These facts make Damrow's job all the more difficult. Sorting out cancer derived from the ticking time bomb that is our genetic lot in life from those brought to you by environmental exposure has so far proved to be a Sisyphean task. The findings of the MDHPS are based on data from the National Tumor Registry, essentially a listing of who's who in cancer types and rates around the country.
"We compared Alberton to state and national rates of cancer types and found similar rates state- and nationwide," says Damrow. "When you compare further the variety of cancer types in Alberton to those nationwide, the evidence speaks of a non-common origin."
But according to Beverly Ridenour, an Alberton resident who's been digging into the medical facts and fallout of the spill, the evidence in this case has not been sufficiently gathered. "There's been no flyers, nobody going out there door to door, and nobody from Helena [where MDHPS in located] here to investigate," says Ridenour. She claims that there's plenty of evidence for the taking, if only someone with some official medical clout would come and take it. She has already uncovered documents that show other chemical compounds that can form in the presence of chlorine, oxygen or water may well have been present, including hexavalent chromium, a known carcinogen.
"There's whole families here who are sick," says Ridenour. "I know one family where everybody was sick with cancer or other problems, except for one 17-year old daughter, and just last week they found she's got a lump in her breast. She was the only healthy one in the family, and now this."
As for Damrow and the staff at MDHPS, they may simply not have the resources to investigate as thoroughly as Ridenour would like them to. "We get requests to investigate cancer clusters here [statewide] at the rate of two or three per month," explains Damrow.

Can anyone recommend a gunsmith that could install tritium night sights, do a trigger job, and possibly replace the safety on a like-new, Parkerized, ten year old, Springfield 1911? I would like to bring it up to a good carry grade pistol.
I have searched online and found a number of gunsmiths, but I wondered if anyone has experience with someone they would recommend? The nearest city to me is Tucson and there is no one there who will do the work. So I am willing to send it somewhere. Thanks!

That's awesome
Wouldn't it be easier to just shoot each house, then photoshop the car in after?
I doubt many people would notice the difference, and it would save a ton of time having to move the car around.
Cool idea anyhow.
And the affluent neighborhoods I've lived in have all been pretty mundane, not exactly the "beat up" type of people. Worst case a photographer catches a penny-loafer to the parietal followed by a draft of a suit by Stainslaw & Ashbaugh for trespassing.

I'm thinking Hawk must have come up with this.

...we cookie-customize that.
As a marketing professional, this is pretty genius. Granted, half the beauty of it is that they were the first one to come up with this idea.
There is a fine line with this stuff though. When I was in business school, one of my professors brought in a little mini-frisbee with a logo on it and said a lawn care company went around his neighborhood and threw it in peoples yard. (With the assumption that people would give it to their dogs to play with.) Two problems being that no one had dogs in the neighborhood and you can't go around throwing stuff in peoples yard.
He actually called the company and said if they do it again he'll call the police. (He was a grumpy, spiteful older man.)
It's definitely creative but, I mean, I don't want to be "that" guy or anything but with google maps and photoshop you could kind of sort of do the same thing. Oh, me and InternetMeme wouldn't want crappy Porsche's parked in front of our castle's and F-40's!
Cool idea. I wonder what was the percentage of people buying a vehicle? I'm also wondering how many test drives were booked, it says 32% of people responded to the Website. So they might have clicked on a landing page but might have been turned off by the messaging.
Cool campaign none the less.
A 32% response rate is absolutely incredible
I thinks its a great concept, but like was said earlier, the beauty of this concept is the fact it was an original idea.
Trying to duplicate this could become counter productive pretty easily
Interesting concept but it only works if they already knew the demographics of the target houses pretty well.
BA did something on a similar line in the UK that I thought was creative. Enter your postcode and you see a BA 777 drive down your street using google streetview imagery.
That's a great idea, props for the execellent marketing technique.
But you can't mess with any kind of mail. Which is why they throw crap everywhere.
From another site:
Yes it is illegal I know from experience. Put fliers on mail boxes when I was in the plumbing business and just starting out. The next morning I awoke to someone knocking on the door it was the Postmaster and 2 policeman man was I sweating. Luckily for me the just gave me a warning (written) after explaining in detail the legalities and the penalties for such an offense.Don't take the chance it isn't worth it
Wow, that's awesome
