Pocono's Suggestions?
Hi all.
I live in South Jersey just east of Philly so the Poconos are about 2 to 3 hours away. I'm originally from Massachusetts (miss the VT resorts) so I don't know too much about this area.
I'm a beginner, been 3 times and I'm starting get a lot better. I like cruiser runs the best. So far I've been to Camelback and Blue Mountain, and I thought both were pretty decent, although I was at both during Holiday weekends so they were busy but manageable.
I plan to make a trip to Elk this year but its a bit farther so I'll wait for some good weather. I'm looking to do mostly night riding to keep costs down. I've spent a bunch already this year on gear. Anyplace else I should check out??
For the Poconos, Jack Frost/Big Boulder, Camelback, and Blue are good; I've never been to Elk.
Definitely check out JFBB. You might really like Jack Frost for cruising groomers, but they are only open during the day. When JF closes, your pass gets you onto Big Boulder for night. Or you could just get a night pass for Boulder.
Boulder is more park oriented. Still a fun mountain, even if you don't ride park, but the runs are pretty short. It's a great place to learn park if you ever wanted. If you're a beginner, you might not mind the short runs.
Keep an eye on the Regional section here, too, for any meet ups in the area.
Is Shawnee any good? I haven't heard much about it.
Shawnee...I went up a bunch of times years ago when I first started, mainly because it was the closest drive. I've had one of the worst days (my first time out) and one of my most fun days at Shawnee. It's small and gets pretty icy, especially at night. I haven't been there in years because I prefer JFBB, Camelback, and Blue over Shawnee.
Sorry I can't give you more recent experience there. If you're coming up from south jersey, the other three resorts are probably a bit closer (depending on your route).
I was at Elk on MLK day and had the chairs to myself all day long. I honestly have no idea how this place stays in business. The terrain is pretty solid in addition to never being crowded. I definitely recommend it. :thumbsup:
JFBB, Camelback, Elk, and Blue Mountain are the only ones worth going too. Of the 4, I would say that Elk is the least crowded with Blue Mountain being the most. It's really annoying sometimes at Blue Mountain when all of the new riders are hitting trails completely out of their league and slowing everybody down. Elk is really nice though. I have heard good things about JFBB, and Camelback is in the middle. They have a nice choice of trails, but it's also sometimes crowded. It is the biggest resort though. I would just wait and go to Elk.
Thanks everyone for the input.
I'll stick to the 4 mountains you guys mentioned. This will hopefully be my last winter in Jersey so I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on anything worthwhile. I'll wait for some more storms and make a day out of JFBB & Elk. Until then I'll keep practicing at night at Blue & Camelback. Hopefully this warm rain isn't ruining everything!
Thanks again
I don't have much to add that wasn't covered except that this rain is not helping things. These local mountains can't catch a break. Locally I have ridden camelback/JFBB this year and I think they both have done wonders with the hand they have been dealt. I rode camelback MLK day and it wasn't too crowded and the conditions were not bad at all. Did another weekday or two early there and a friday at JF which were all enjoyable since they were empty... despite some rougher conditions
I grew up riding at Shawnee in the 90s.. had a seasons pass there for three years in HS. I have never been back (since 97) if that tells you anything. ELK is a bit farther haul but a nice little mt and personally I have never liked blue. If there was any snow Mt Creek is worth checking out, but I have not even gone there despite it being the closest mt to me.
Well, some may knock Shawnee but if you have only been boarding 3 times, Shawnee is a good place to learn at. Definitely no terrain I would consider hard, no steep pitches to speak of really. It does have good greens and blues to learn on and although not much of a pitch, there really aren't any completely flat spots that you might get stuck on and have to skate around. Then it has few very short blacks that you can dabble around on before you outgrow it.
Plus with a student ID you can get a lift ticket at Shawnee that lasts from like 8:30 am to 9 pm. Once you get more experience it will seem real tame though. I prefer Blue or Elk. I don't really hit the parks at all though, more freeride. If your willing for a bit more of a drive the Catskills will offer a bit more challenge after the Poconos.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hello and thank you for using Just Answer,Rental income from real property located in the United States and the gain from its sale will always be U.S. source income subject to tax in the United States regardless of the foreign investor's personal tax status and regardless of whether the United States has an income treaty with the foreign investor's home country.Ownership of real property is not considered a U.S. trade or business if it consists of merely passive activity such as a net lease in which the lessee pays rent, as well as all taxes, operating expenses, repairs, and interest in principal on existing mortgages and insurance in connection with the property.
Now please allow one moment while I look at the exact treaty because passive rental income is subject to a flat 30 percent withholding tax (unless reduced by an applicable income tax treaty) applied to the gross income rather than the "net rent" received.
I saw nothing in the treaty that reduced the withholding amount or that changed it to only the net.
If you by filing the W8 have opted to have this as a business then you would file a US 1040NR and claim your expenses against the income each April.
If you were to give this property to your daughter she would need to report the gift but would not be taxed on the gift. She would also include the rental in her US return but would be allowed to use (to her benefit) any loss on the property.
You would have to check with your own tax advisor in Sweden about any possible taxation there should you decide to transfer the property to your daughter now as a gift.
>If you by filing the W8 have opted to have this as a business
Did you request that they not withhold on the rents when you completed the W8?
If you did then you will be required to file a US return
Please clarify. Not opting for any business. Just net rental income/loss from one tenant.
Did you request that the management company not withhold taxes on teh rents?
the rents* sorry
No W8 completed yet. The rental property manager is requesting W*Ben to be filled out.
Ok, they need that by US tax law. They will be withholding 30% on the gross (before expenses)
>Did you request that the management company not withhold taxes on teh rents?
How to request?
You would have a treaty provision portion on the W8 BEN
under Sweden treaty, zero percent withholding?
there is no treaty provision specific to US Sweden that allows for the management company to withhold on Net instead of gross
Please clarify "withhold on Net instead of gross"
Real estate property manager is hired by the Swedish couple.
Treaty provisions may allow for the withholding on rental after expenses are deducted
The US Sweden treaty does not allow for that
The management company would need to withhold 30% tax on the Gross (total rents received)
30% tax on the Gross?
When you file the US 1040NR you can claim the expenses and lower the taxable amount
That is quite a bit on about $1,xxx.
30% tax is withheld and paid to US by the management company
It is because the US can get it easier form a US management company then they could from a nonresident alien
any suggestion in this kind of predicament?
There is no way around it unless you gift the property to your US daughter
US management company hired by the married couple.
what is no US management company is hired?
US management company hired by the married couple. The US company has a US tax obligation
If no management company then the renter is supposed to withhold
that is true.
so TIN for both husband and Wife need to be applied for? just by the husband only?
without TIN, W-8BEN cannot be completed.
Whoever owns the property as both would file the US nonresident return
property in both names.
You can still send them the W8 (it stays with the company) and you are not claiming any treaty benefit
teh US tax return will need the ITIN of both'
without ITIN, can W8 be completed and given to the property manager.
If you do not have one you leave that blank
what to write in the box for ITIN?
I see.
then apply for ITIN for the annual(2013) tax return?
Yes, W7 with the 1040NR returnIf you do not wish to deal with the US tax on real property used for income, you could gift the property to your daughter.
or just add daughter's name on the title instead of gifting the whole?
Then you would still own US real property, nothing changes except percentage of income
Your positive rating is always thanks enough.
We appreciate your continued support.
to summarise, your answer is just fill out W8 leaving TIN blank for now.
2 W8s?
Yes one for each of you
one from husband and another from wife?
Ok thanks.
You are most welcome
Is Form W-8ECI applicable? The Form W-8BEN is used for income that is not effectively connected. Is rental income on renting out a residential condo in the US considered NOT effectively connected?
There exists a US-Sweden tax treaty. Can you double check the US-Sweden tax treaty (IRS publication 515 shows 15% reduced rate withholding on dividend)? You stated, "The management company would need to withhold 30% tax on the Gross (total rents received)" Swedish Individuals who are liable to Swedish tax have to pay income tax in Sweden on their worldwide income. there will be double taxation if 30% is withheld. Is not it?
>Rental is effectively connected.
Should Form W-8ECI (effectively connected.income) be used then instead of W-8BEN?
Link for your info - stating no 30% withholding required if Form W-8ECI is used:
>merely passive activity such as a net lease
No, NOT a net lease at all in the current matter; lessee does NOT pay Real Estate taxes, repairs, and insurance in connection with the rented 3-bedroom apartment property. The property owner pays the said rental expenses and claims depreciation.
>If you do not have one you leave that blank
Does the W8 ECI REQUIRE an ITIN?

Payday Loan Quotes
Payday Loan Quotes aren't particularly favored, but they do offer cash for people who really need it. It is important to have understanding about payday cash advances. This article contains many tips to use when it comes to payday advances.
Hidden fees are extremely prevalent when dealing with Payday Loan Quotes. You have no method of knowing what you're being charged if you do not ask. Make sure your queries are clear and direct. Some people uncover that they owe a lot more than they originally thought once you have a loan. Steer clear of this pitfall by causing sure to read each of the documents and asking all critical questions.
Always consider other loan sources before choosing to use a payday loan service. It is more affordable to get a loan from the bank, a card company, or from family. There are so many fees with payday advances that will be above any of the additional options that may be open to you.
Consider just how much you honestly have to have the money that you are considering borrowing. If it is something that could hold off until you have the money to buy, procrastinate. You will likely discover that Payday Loan Quotes are certainly not an affordable option to purchase a big TV to get a football game. Limit your borrowing through these lenders to emergency situations.
When you find the best payday loan company, keep with them. Make it your main goal to build a track record of successful loans, and repayments. By doing this, you might become entitled to bigger loans down the road with this company. They may be more ready to work with you, when in real struggle.
Payday Loan Quotes could be something that many have contemplated but are unsure about. Even though payday advances have excessive charges attached to them, these are useful in times where a quick payment is required. This tips below will assist you to make good decisions about Payday Loan Quotes.
If circumstances need seek payday advances, you should know that you'll need to pay exorbitant rates. In some cases the interest can be as high as 200 percent. Payday lenders hide a person's eye in fees to acquire around state usury laws.
When you get the first payday loan, ask for a reduction. Most payday loan offices give a fee or rate discount for first-time borrowers. If the place you need to borrow from does not offer a discount, call around. If you find a rebate elsewhere, the credit place, you desire to visit probably will match it to have your business.
The most important tip when taking out a payday loan is to only borrow what you are able pay back. Interest rates with payday advances are crazy high, and when you take out greater than you can re-pay with the due date, you will be paying a great deal in interest fees.
Keep in mind that you might have certain rights if you use a payday loan service. If you feel that you've got been treated unfairly with the loan company by any means, it is possible to file a complaint using your state agency. This is as a way to force them to abide by any rules, or conditions they fail to live up to. Always read your contract carefully. So that you know what their responsibilities are, plus your own.

As for colors I'm open to ideas but I'll probably be using the CMS from http://mediatech.net/ so its needs to fit into this site.
I'd like to be able to reduce the logo or part of it to a favicon
I'm veering towards using google style lettering (different colours for each letter) with maybe the google mail envelope as the initial "M" in email4domain.com to show that its a Google Apps promoting service. if you think this is a bad idea I'm happy to be led

Not many choices out there. I purchased a WRB inside the waistband, tuckable holster about three months ago. It's not much to look at - quilted nylon with a single spring clip. The gimmick of the holster is that the sping clip can accomodate a cell-phone case on the front (provided with the $18 price). The theory is that the cell phone covers the bulge of the gun. The sales guy at the gun show provided me with a case for my blackberry and and extra case for my back-up phone. The rub is that I don't carry on the front half of my waist - I like the right/back quarter - and this puts the cell phone in a very awkward position.
Soooo, I like the holster since it's the only one I've found that fits the PF9 well and it conceals well, even with my shirt tucked in but I don't use the cell-phone case feature.
You can reach WRB at 800-824-2899.
Happy trails.

In this smooth, carefully paced course, leading Perl trainers and a Windows NT practitioner teach you to program in the language that promises to emerge as the scripting language of choice on NT. With a foreword by Larry Wall, the creator of Perl, this book is the "official" guide for both formal (classroom) and informal learning. Based on the "llama book,"Learning Perl on Win32 Systems features tips for PC users and new NT-specific examples.Perl for Win32 is a language for easily manipulating text, files, user and group profiles, performance and event logs, and registry entries, and a distribution is available on the Windows NT Resource Kit. Peer-to-peer technical support is now available on the perl.win32.users mailing list.The contents include:
Erik Olson is a renegade linguist who makes a living developing software for Win32 platforms. Erik is currently the chief technical officer at Axiom Technologies, LC, a software outsourcing shop. Erik delivers developer training, system administration, and program/concept development for a number of large-scale horizontal and vertical applications. Working as a program developer since 1986, Erik has implemented a variety of systems ranging from point-of-sales systems to horizontal PIM products to real-time financial market applications. Although much of his work is done in C++, he has particular interests in Web development and scripting languages. Erik coauthored Learning Perl on Win32 Systems with Tom Christiansen and Randal Schwartz.

Tom Christiansen is a freelance consultant specializing in Perl training and writing. After working for several years for TSR Hobbies (of Dungeons and Dragons fame), he set off for college where he spent a year in Spain and five in America, dabbling in music, linguistics, programming, and some half-dozen different spoken languages. Tom finally escaped UW-Madison with B.A.s in Spanish and computer science and an M.S. in computer science. He then spent five years at Convex as a jack-of-all-trades working on everything from system administration to utility and kernel development, with customer support and training thrown in for good measure. Tom also served two terms on the USENIX Association Board of directors. With over fifteen years' experience in UNIX system administration and programming, Tom presents seminars internationally. Living in the foothills above Boulder, Colorado, surrounded by mule deer, skunks, and the occasional mountain lion and black bear, Tom takes summers off for hiking, hacking, birding, music making, and gaming.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal on the cover of Learning Perl on Win32 Systems is a wall gecko. Geckos are a very large and diverse family of lizards, with approximately 670 species. The wall gecko is found in North Africa, southern parts of Spain, France, and Italy, the Canary Islands, and some South Pacific islands. Their wide distribution is largely due to geckos stowing away aboard cargo ships. Wall geckos regularly live among humans, making their homes in the crevices of houses.As their name implies, wall geckos can climb walls with ease, a skill they share with other geckos. Contrary to long-held opinion, they do not have suction cup- like fingers and toes. Instead, they have microscopic, hooked cells covering their digits. The cells hook into any tiny crevice or irregularity in a surface, even glass.Geckos are the only reptiles that make extensive use of their voices. They communicate danger, attract mates, and mark territory using a range of chirps, squeaks, and barks. If caught, a gecko can break off a section of its tail using muscular contraction, which severs a tail vertebra. The tail will regenerate, but can never again be broken off at that particular site.Wall geckos, which are nocturnal, have excellent vision. They have no eyelids, just a transparent scale covering the eye surface. Like cats' eyes, the gecko's pupil closes to a slit to restrict light, and opens to fill the iris at night. Edie Freedman designed this cover and the entire UNIX bestiary that appears on other Nutshell Handbooks. The beasts themselves are adapted from 19th-century engravings from the Dover Pictorial Archive. The cover layout was produced with Quark XPress 3.32 using ITC Garamond from Adobe. Whenever possible, our books use RepKoverTM, a durable and flexible lay-flat binding. If the page count exceeds RepKover's limit, perfect binding is used. ... The inside layout was designed by Nancy Priest and formatted in FrameMaker 5.0 by Mike Sierra using ITC Garamond Light and ITC Garamond Book fonts. This colophon was written by Clairemarie Fisher O'Leary.

Learning Perl on Win32 Systems Review
By K. L.
from Undisclosed
Comments about oreilly Learning Perl on Win32 Systems:
The closer I was to the end of the book the more disappointed and annoyed I became. The reason: the later chapters were poorly written and not very readable, they seemed to have no connection to the earlier chapters. Here is an example: in Chapter 16, under Opening and Reading Registry Values, the example used Reference, arrow pointer (->), and Object Method. None of these concepts were introduced in previous chapters or explained here. Making things worse, none of these can be found in the index. A few very scatchy descriptions may exist for some (e.g. Reference) in later chapters, but they were not very clear either. It looked like that the chapters were independently written and the authors just didn't bother to correlate the contents. The early chapters were OK. The later chapters need significant improvement for this book to be used as a learning text.

I am half way through this book now. Although I like this book in general, I hate the part that some of the exercises use the knowledge (as given in the answer section) not introduced in that particular chapter or prior chapters. How can you expect a student to use the knowledge he/she has not learned?
By Roy Staples
This book is a good start. I disagree with some of the other reviews. They seem to miss the point. First, I'd like to say that you need to have some programming backround before you start learning Perl. The first chapter is a tough one otherwise. The author does explain things very well, considering the breadth of the subject. If the book gets you to the point where you are convinced that Perl is a good tool, then it has done its job. If you want an exhaustive approach, get Programming Perl.Yes, the examples are a little lacking. (What do you want - it's 300 pages!). If you want examples, check out the many Perl websites, or get the Perl Cookbook.In closing, I'd like to say that I love O'Reilly for having produced this book. It takes a pragmatic publisher to aggressively present important and useful subjects, especially given the OS background of Mr. O'Reilly himself. Because of his books, I have learned to value the advantages to the *nix's, without having to blindside myself to the advantages of Windows.On either OS, Perl is GREAT!
By Rebecca Foley
Well I must say that I am highly disappointed in this book. I was taking an intro to Perl Class in college and this was our text book. I found it very confusing with few real application examples, and it appeared, at times, that the Author's of this book were trying to be too cleaver..verses being clear and concise. I suppose my largest gripe with this book is that, ( especially for a newbie), it moves from point A to point B without explaining sufficently why you would ever want to do either of them in the first place. I was hoping to get more out of this book than I did... I would not recommened it for anyone who is just start off. ;0(

I wanted to use Perl for some repetetive tasks in a Win32 environment, bought this book and got exactely what I wanted and needed. This is not a in-depth description of Perl, it is not a complete programmer's guide. It sets out to learn how to use Perl on Win32, and it delivers just that in a friendly no-nonsense manner. Good reading!If you are a seasoned UNIX-user or programmer, this book is not what you want -- but then you probably are better off with the Perl Cookbook or all the extensive documentation available on the web. For the rest of us, who just want to learn how get complicated things done in a Win32 environment and has no previous Perl experience: This is a very good book indeed to get you started.

Samsung is known worldwide for its unique designs and advanced technology. Samsung dominates the world television market and enjoys a fairly large share of the profits that come to the TV industry. Some of the pioneering tasks that it has undertaken are introduction of thin LED LCDs, bringing hairline bezels into mainstream, voice and gesture control options and development of a TV app store.
At CES 2014, Samsung introduced curved TV with two variants; one with a resolution of 4K and the other with a resolution of standard 1080p. The first curved TV with a flat panel was introduced last year which included a pair of expensive OLEDs from Samsung and LG. LG also unveiled a few curved models at CES 2014 but they were OLEDs and highly unaffordable.
My CES 2014 TV recap amply reveals that I consider curved TVs just another gimmick. I am in a habit of making use of the latest technology before denouncing it to be as accurate in reviewing the product as possible. Such a close scrutiny of the TV has kept the curved television out of my good books.
If you are a videophile with ample money to spend on televisions, you would find the curve of the TV to be an irritant and nothing more. The corners of the TV appear to be wider than the centre giving a gentle trapezoid effect which is distracting at times. The horizontal edges also created a "U" along the upper edge and an inverted "U" at the lower edge.
Another bizarre thing is that the curve changed in roundness with the height of the viewer relative to the screen. Standard seating position on an office chair made the bottom of the screen appear more bent than the upper curve. I found the TV angled towards the back. When I asked the Samsung rep about default angling of the TV towards the back, I was told that it is to prevent the TV from falling over.
The curve has some issues with shots that have greater depth of the field. For instance, the cityscapes in the beginning of the movie "I Am Legend" made me feel that there was greater sense of depth in the middle of the screen than corners.
One benefit of the curve is that the reflections are less pronounced due to the anti-reflective screen and are caught less frequently in the OLED screen as compared to the plasma screen. The curve did impart an extra depth to the picture and helped to reduce reflections but the distortion greatly overwhelmed both these benefits.
The Sweet Spot:
A curved IMAX screen makes sense because it emits surround sound that engulfs you to give effect. This analogy was the justification that LG and Samsung used to give initially for production of curved TVs. However, experts believe that this argument falls flat with normal screen sizes and viewing distances.
Big screens allow you the liberty to focus light on the audience. Another aspect is of reducing optical distortions. The image has a natural touch to it when all parts of the image are equidistant from your eyes. When you sit in the right seat, the image can practically envelop you. Having said that, it goes without saying that you need to be sitting at the right place to enjoy the envelope created by the image. This sweet spot is quite large in case of big screens and allows a lot of people to sit in it while with a smaller screen, only a person or two can be accommodated in the sweet spot. If the viewer sits too close or too far from the television, the curve loses its charm.
Samsung has developed mainstream curved sets ranging from 48 to 78 inches. Samsung claims that all of its curved sets target the same viewing distance of 10 to 13 feet however, it is almost impossible to get surround vision from such distances.
What remains unanswered is how does the picture appear to people out of the sweet spot? The answer is not very encouraging. Viewers out of the sweet spot get an unequally distorted view. While distortions such as one edge appearing larger than the other do happen in flat TVs also, they get worse in case of a curved TV. This translates into the fact that should you choose to buy a curved TV, be ready to enjoy it only from a certain position that is best suited based on the viewing angle and elevation.
Another issue worth a mention is that the curved LED LCD technology that Samsung uses for its mainstream curved TV sets suffers worse off viewing angle issues than their flat counterparts. The color and brightness gets washed off at the edges. Such a phenomenon is more pronounced in curved TVs than flat ones which brings us to a conclusion that it is more difficult to maintain uniformity of brightness in curved TVs than in flat ones.
How much more will curved TV cost?
Samsung has not disclosed the price of its curved TVs but it shall be wise not to expect them to be cheap. One of the comparable sets is the Sony 65 inch 65S990A which costs $4,000. This is around 65 percent dearer than the flat 1080p variant which is available for $2,500.
If Samsung tries to keep the costs low to 30 to 40 percent more than the cost of its flat variant, its 1080p version will still be more expensive than the flat 4K one. This is because the prices of 4K models is expected to come down in 2014. That is probably one of the reasons why Samsung wants people to buy curved TVs. Since the cost of 4K models is sinking with the Vizio 50 inch P series expected to cost only $1,000, the curved TVs will provide an avenue to charge more and maintain profits. All television enthusiasts shall remain excited to know the price tag that Samsung decides to attach to its curved TV.
I believe if I spend more time in front of the TV I might get used to the curve and start appreciating the picture it produces. However, currently I find it quite difficult to imagine trading a flat TV for a curved one. One Naples real estate company is actually starting to give away these tv's with the purchase of every home. Some people must see the merit in the technology presented by Samsung.

Joff Redfern, Head of Mobile Products discusses the key to a easily-digestible interface at the Guardian Mobile Business Summit.
"Mobile first is not necessarily about trying to do something first on the mobile and then on the desktop. It's a way of life," says Joff Redfern, head of mobile products at business social network LinkedIn.
Redfern was speaking at the Guardian Mobile Business Summit 2012 conference in London, where he outlined LinkedIn's evolving design approach to mobile devices, and said that all the company's product teams now share a mantra: "Simplify."
A year ago in August 2011, LinkedIn had "a good app, it wasn't a great app… it didn't have a strong point of view," said Redfern. "We decided around that time that we really wanted to re-imagine LinkedIn." Hence a significant revamp of the company's mobile app.
Redfern said that historically, LinkedIn has been known as a good place to build your business network and maybe find a new job, but the company wanted to shift it towards giving more "every-day value".
That included focusing on the central "business stream" of information from people's contacts, and boiling the site down from more than 2,000 pages on desktop to around 71 on phones – a considerable information architecture challenge.
The new app had four key areas: Updates, You, Inbox and Groups & More, although Redfern noted that over time following the relaunch, it was tough not to overload the latter category: first groups, then jobs, then companies.
"It was so crowded we got it down to four, now we're beginning to see pressure build up as we try to extend the information architecture," he said.
Redfern said that this is a new popular pattern in information architecture for mobile social networking apps, showing the Facebook, Path, and Google+ apps following a similar path to LinkedIn.
He also pointed out some skeuomorphism at work in the redesigned app: design touches hinting at postal envelopes in the app's inbox, for example.
Apple is frequently criticised for this kind of thing, but LinkedIn decided it worked well – albeit after removing a fake coffee stain design element on the grounds that it went "a little too far".
LinkedIn measured the performance of the new app carefully to gauge whether it had been a success. The mobile team has three key metrics: growth as a percentage of members coming in on a weekly basis using the mobile app, versus the entire base; everyday usage: average daily active users divided by weekly active users, to figure out how many days per week members are using the app; and how much money the app is making.
(He didn't reveal any of these figures, mind.)
Redfern also talked about LinkedIn's "simple Litmus test" for whether it's innovating: "Are we being copied? If you're being copied, you're the leader."
He cited the pull-to-refresh trick introduced in Twitter app Tweetie around 2010, which has since been widely used by other app developers, including Apple in iOS 6.
LinkedIn's equivalent: congratulating its early adopters via email to celebrate its 100 millionth member, with their exact number. Something he said numerous other companies have since copied.
And next? Redfern hinted at more mobile-specific features in response to a question about location.
"As we move forward, having more truly mobile use cases is very important for us," he said. "Previously, it was more important to just have the basic use case of LinkedIn on mobile, which is where most of our efforts have been."

Targeting perfected with the new GripSenseTM Activation by LaserMax. LaserMax GripSense Activation senses the users grip within the detection zone and activates the sight. Additionally, choose how you want your light and laser to operate, either rapid instant GripSense Activation, or controlled activation with the push of a button.
Less is more. Modern defensive pistols continue to shrink in size. This is great news for shooters with small hands and those looking to conceal on smaller frames. BUT, the smaller the gun, the shorter the sight radius and the more challenging it is to shoot accurately. Enter the CenterFire laser sight. Designed specifically for use on small handguns that lack an accessory rail, CenterFire Lasers emit their bright aiming point from right under the bore to ensure maximum accuracy. And, because pistol selection is based on form as well as function, each CenterFire sports a minimalist design that mirrors the color, texture and styling of the individual firearm it is designed around.
Control the night. CenterFire WeaponLights provide over 115 lumens of brilliant illumination, enabling the operator to positively identify a threat while keeping both hands on the firearm, where they belong. Optimized to your field of vision, the CenterFire WeaponLight offers far greater tactical advantage than a handheld flashlight and results in faster, more accurate shots.
LaserMax Rail Mounted Lasers and Lights provide the ruggedness and versatility demanded by tier one special operation forces and favored by responsibly armed gun owners. Most commonly mounted on pistol, rifle, shotgun and archery platforms, these sighting systems add a bright aiming point to any Picatinny or Weaver rail.
LaserMax teams with the world's leading firearm manufacturers to develop custom engineered solutions of the highest caliber. Brands like Beretta, Colt, Kahr, Ruger and Smith & Wesson rely on LaserMax for its award winning product innovation, performance and reliability.
Whether conducting hostage rescues or apprehending high value targets, night operations offer countless benefits to professional operators. Not only does the cover of night provide concealment of one's position and movements, it is far easier to make use of the element of surprise while the world is at rest. But, with these advantages come added risks not present during daytime maneuvers. Limitations in visual acuity, night vision adaptation, and color and depth perception must be compensated for during covert operations.
Emitting light outside the visible color spectrum, LaserMax infrared (IR) laser sights enable immediate non-verbal target verification as well as fast and accurate engagement of threats when marksmanship matters most. Visible through image-intensifying night-vision devices (NVDs), LaserMax IR lasers ensure that the good guys maintain the upper hand.
LaserMax accessories have an unmatched reputation for performance and reliability.
Whether you are looking to customize a rifle or adapt a rail in order to attach a LaserMax sight, you have come to the right place.
Reliable, lightweight and powerful, LaserMax batteries feature convenient packaging, a wide temperature tolerance and up to 10-years of shelf life. Optimize the performance of your LaserMax laser sight or WeaponLight by installing a fresh set of batteries at least once a year.

What Will You Change: Overcoming Polio, Health Disparities in Nigeria
Dr. Muhammad Ali Pate
September 09, 2010
By Elizabeth Michalka — This article was originally published in the alumni magazine Team Fuqua.
The battle against polio in Nigeria—one of the only countries in Africa still fighting the virus—may soon be won, largely due to the leadership of Dr. Muhammad Ali Pate (Weekend Executive MBA & HSM '06).
From January to July 2010, only six cases of the wild polio virus were confirmed in Nigeria, compared to 376 cases during the same period from 2009, as reported by the World Health Organization.
"I'm cautiously optimistic," Pate says. "We hope to ultimately eradicate polio from Nigeria. We can't let up yet because the virus could come back, and we don't want a reemergence … polio can ruin a child's life, and to think that can be changed with just two drops of a vaccine is very gratifying."
The virus's decline is attributed to a national effort of increased education, public awareness campaigns, social mobilization, and vaccine distribution improvements, led by Nigeria's National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA). The agency leads the country's immunization program and "supports the promotion and implementation of high quality and sustainable primary health care." Pate is Executive Director/CEO of the NPHCDA.
Since taking the reins in 2008, Pate prioritized restructuring the NPHCDA—collapsing silos and increasing integration resulted in greater efficiency and effectiveness, with the greatest impact being perhaps on the fight against polio.
"When I joined the agency I had to prioritize the issues, and polio was one of the main ones. I thought that by having a good rate of change there, we could create momentum for other programs," Pate says.
One of the main hurdles to the immunization program in the past has been resistance by traditional, local, and religious leaders, due to distrust of the central government, explains Will Mitchell, Professor of International Management and Strategy at Fuqua.
"Muhammad has really pushed hard to create a strong shared value of the importance of immunization," says Mitchell. "He's spent a lot of time in the field, gaining people's trust and understanding local needs."
Last year, Mitchell helped Pate to further another initiative impacting primary health in Nigeria—training for mid-level health care managers. Pate, who is also an Adjunct Professor at the Duke Global Health Institute, proposed the program to fill a gap that existed in management training. This year, 83 participants are learning to utilize resources more effectively to improve operations and health outcomes.
"Based on the feedback and evaluations we've received so far from students, it's been very successful. It's very exciting because it's opening up a new form of continued management education in Nigeria, which we hope to build upon," Pate says.
The program will continue next year with support from the federal government and The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. To prepare for that program, three of Pate's team members visited Fuqua in August for two weeks to work with Mitchell on the curriculum and course materials.
"There has been a huge boost in confidence in the agency because we're doing what we said we would do. These positive results will continue to translate to other projects," Pate says. "It takes a whole country to make these changes, and Nigeria is now moving ahead. We have an African saying that if you want to go fast, you go alone, but if you want to go far, you go with others."
Story Update: Dr. Muhammad Pate was appointed as Nigeria's Minister of Health by President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan in July 2011.

Bad Boys of the ATP: Tomas Berdych
Bad boys. We love em, then we hate em, then we love em again. For most women, there is nothing sexier than a man who loves you then leaves you begging for more. Endless songs are written about these men our fathers would certainly not approve of, but whether we simply daydream about these rebellious romantics, (hello, Eric Northman), or actually pursue them is another matter entirely.Only one thing is for sure, at some point in our lives we will find ourselves attracted to someone who strays a little on the naughty side.
If you're a bad boy addict, modern day tennis leaves a lot to be desired. On the surface, men's tennis is filled with gentlemen who hug their opponents after a loss and don't spit the dummy when a call doesn't go their way. They don't drink, they don't smoke and they certainly don't resemble James Dean (or Deen, if you prefer). But there are a few rough cuts amongst the polished stones, those who fit in more amongst John McEnroe and Ilie Nastase than the Wimbledon tea room regulars. Over the next few months, I will make an attempt to sort out those ATP players you'd take home to meet your mother from those you... definitely wouldn't.
It takes a lot for the mild-mannered Rafael Nadal to call someone stupid, but that's exactly how he has referred to our latest bad boy. This Czech player has no problems showing his disdain for media, umpires and other players. He is, of course, Tomas Berdych.
Bad Behaviour
Berdych has never been a big fan of the Spaniards. Back in 2006 - long before he was ranked No.6 in the world - Berdych showed his distaste for a pro-Nadal crowd after his win over the Spanish player. Turning to the crowd as he approached the net, Berdych brought his finger to his lips in a 'be quiet' sign meant for the Spanish fans, (the match was played in Madrid; Spanish fans there were plenty). His actions prompted Nadal to call him a 'bad person', which was perhaps a touch heavy-handed. The two exchanged words, and they've never really made up.
Four years later, Berdych became annoyed when an umpire had the gall to discuss a line call with Nadal. "He is probably scared of him (Nadal) and allowed him talk too much," Berdych said of the exchange. He was quick to clarify that his problem was with the umpire, not Nadal, but you have to wonder if he would have made such a fuss if he was playing a fellow Czech.
Berdych's war with the Spanish continued in 2012, when he refused to shake the hand of Nicolas Almagro. Almagro had hit a ball at Berdych in a fiercely contested match at the Australian Open. Berdych fell down in a display most soccer players would envy, and refused to accept Almagro's apologies. After he won the match, Berdych snubbed Almagro and was booed off court by a disgusted Australian crowd.
Far from a forgive and forget kind of bloke, Berdych hit out at Almagro later on in 2012 prior to a Davis Cup clash. "I faced Almagro many times this year and won most of them," he said. "If he's nominated, he will be the weak point on which we can build our victory. He's missing that little something that distinguishes great players [from the rest]. He's won smaller tournaments this year. But he always has a chance if he plays."
Say one thing for Berdych, say that he's honest.
Bad to the Bone
Despite his on-court misbehaviours, prior to 2011 many fans refused to accept Berdych as a downright bad boy due to his long-term relationship with the infinitely sweet Lucie Safarova. Fans cooed over tennis's cutest couple, and most hoped the nine year relationship would result in marriage.
Unfortunately, Berdych had other ideas. He split with Lucie in 2011 and just months later was spotted with a model named Ester Satorova. Due to the fact Ester has posed in such classy, tasteful shoots such as this (NSFW), fans took an immediate dislike Berdych's new squeeze.
Despite most of us anticipating that Ester was nothing more than a rebound, her and Berdych are still going strong after two years. Perhaps the bad boy just needed a bad girl.
Bad Boy Gone Good
Berdych doesn't enjoy the most warm relationships with tennis people, but he can boast that he never neglects his fans. He is short in interviews, preferring to express his thoughts and personality through his personal social media pages, such as Facebook and Instagram. Berdych asks fans for their opinions, shares jokes, posts music clips and occasionally responds to people.

okay just got a call from a apartment complex. Brick all 2 stories Bees are going in next to a window second storyThey tried a exterminator did nothing.they have opened the wall inside said they found nothingFrom this I am thinking behind the brick between the wood and brick.If so can I remove the wood on the inside and the brick not come tumbling down like humpty dumpty?Trapout might be the other option but I dont like leaveing any equipment there not the greatest area to leave your stuff unattended. I am going to look at it this afternoon will take yall some pics. Any advise will be helpfull I am getting that bore scope Friday I dont care if it take a 5/8 inch hole I will buy quark plugs :) I really want to know what happens if I take the wall board down on the inside could that be fixed after the removal?? Manager keeps asking if that could be done.
I have yet to decide what I am going to charge but I would bet its going to be high. :)First words out of my mouth thats a horrible place for them to be. They are going behind the brick at the upper right side of the window and the exterminator drilled holes and stuff them full of I guess something like seven dust but thats inside the apartment and I would bet money they are not in that wall. Why you say sofit iddee it scared me looks a lot like the one I did last year that was behind the brick and fritz board so it looked like they were in the sofit.

walmart lights
2 Attachment(s)
So I bought those cheapo square lights from Walmart for my yj.
Attachment 254746
Well, I've had them installed for over a month or so now. I have them hooked to a very basic toggle switch, no lights on the switch and its not grounded. I was wheelin this weekend and went thru a deep pit that was filled with water. The water came well up over the lights and they were on at the time. Shortly after I was out of the jeep and noticed my lights wernt on. After I got home I did some closer inspection and noticed my inline fuse was melted.
Attachment 254749
I put a new fuse in and the lights turned on, no problem. I'm not sure why this happened though.....both lights are grounded right to the frame with less the 8" of wire. They each have a ring terminal and are held to the frame with self tappers. Now, I do have a heavy coat of paint on my frame and I didn't remove any paint at the grounds. I tapped then in, the lights worked so I figured....done. could the reason my fuse melted after going thru water be due to not having the most ideal grounds? Should I scrape some of the paint under the ring terminals or do I have a different problem all together?
I don't know your problem but how do you like the lights? Did they come with wiring? I also have a yj
I think the water shorted them. Don't worry about your lights, now that they're dry I'd say that was a faulty fuse. Was it a 10 Amp? Maybe drop to a 5 so it will blow before melt down occurs if there is a short somewhere in the future.
Yeah they came with all the wiring and a switch. I didn't use the switch they came with cause I had a different toggle I wanted to use. For <$25 you can't beat them though. I like that they are square, I didn't want to put round lights on my bumper. They arnt crazy bright by any means, but they serve my purpose well enough. Honestly, they are probably as bright as the factory yj headlights.....
They came with a 15 amp. I'm gonna end up switching to a 10 though. I have to run to auto zone and grab some fuses cause right now theres a 20 in there....its all I had to see if they still worked.
Awesome I upgraded my headlights but fog is a problem around my house so do you think they would be good for that? And I guess the worst that happens is 25bucks into crap lights lol
That's how I looked at it....for $25 why not. I would say the lights will serve you well for fog, just make sure you mount/aim them low.
OP: slightly off topic, how much did those walmart lights cost you? That's something I might be interested in but placing in the back and using a switch when its too dark to when going in reverse... Thanks in advance!
They were less then $25....maybe like $23 or so
Pair, I think the manufacturer is platinum burners or something like that. They have a plastic rock guard molded right into the casing and they also come with solid daytime covers that snap on/off.
I bought the Baha brand or somesuch, same lights though. I agree; they are the best 20$ lights around, but are still 20$ lights. They come with 55w H4 (iirc), but also have 100w bulbs next to em, at least at the part store.
How to make them awesome:
1. Cut out that silly grid - it only blocks light. Wire snips worked great.
2. Throw away their switch and take their wire to the scrap yard, then go buy a Coke.
3. While enjoying your Coke, go back to the parts store and get 1 or 2 relays and some 12ga wire for a set of 55w, 10 gauge for a set of 100w. Yes, this is overkill, but you need at least 14/12 gauge. You will be happier with the larger option.
4. Hook it all up.
5. Wait till dark and go buy another Coke with your awesome 35$ lights, smiling the whole way.
I would also upgrade my headlights to relay controlled larger wires at the same time if ya haven't, it makes an incredible difference. Mine are wired to an independent switch and my highbeams, either will engage them, and it is awesomely bright. You may still want to add more if you really want daylight, but I drive in dark hollows down mountain roads with animals everywhere and I can see em all from a long way out. Mine are 'Driving Lights', they are not what you want for fog. You need fog lights for that, which similar units are sold but they always seem to be yellow.
Btw, your fuse block melted because the heat caused by the excessive amperage fighting it's way down the tiny wire was greater than the fusebox could withstand. Probably immediately caused by a dead short (water), but possibly just how bad of an idea it is to use 16 or 18ga wire with 55w sets. Fwiw, I have seen several similar things happen by using their stock wiring, and have yet to encounter a problem with upgraded systems. The fact that the wires failed before the fuse or bulb is an indication of a systemic flaw.
55w x 2 = 110w, ÷ 12V = 9.2A draw. 100w x 2 = 200W ÷ 12V = 16.7A draw. 55s need at least a 10A fuse, I use a 15A. For 100w, 20A is needed. :)
I think it looks better without the grids, too, but you can judge before ya cut:

It was a good time! Wish we could've gotten a few more guys together to make it a little more worthwhile for Shane though. The geese were lazy in the morning and didn't start flying until about 2pm and weren't very cooperative when they were, but Shane did an awesome job at talking some down. We ended the day with 7 good sized Honkers between cantshootwell and myself though. Josh provided plenty of entertainment both in and outside of the pit! He at sh!t while chasing a cripple, and I think at that point was trying to club with the stock of his gun, because he had already unloaded 3 more rounds trying to finish it off.
I didn't get a tailgate shot, but got this sunset pic from the pit:

Genoa Pharmaceuticals Finds $1.2M
San Diego-based biotechnology company Genoa Pharma announced this morning that it has raised $1.2M in a finacing round, to help advance its treatments for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). Source of the seed funding was not announced. IPF is a fatal lung disease which the company says affects approximately 200,000 Americans and 135,000 Europeans. Genoa Pharmaceuticals was founded by Mark SUrber, Ph.D., who has formerly served at Mpex and Aires Pharmaceuticals. The company said that the only treatment available to patients today is a lung transplant, as there are no U.S. approved drugs for IPF. More information »

This book, formerly entitled Mohammedanism and first issued in OPUS in 1969, has become a standard work on Islam; it explains its main features as a religious system in terms of their historical development.
Islam is, next to Christianity, the most widely diffused of all religions. Its adherents, who stretch from Morocco to the Philippine Islands, number one-seventh of the population of the globe.
Beginning with its origins as a practical religion in the Quran and the preaching of Mohammed, this book traces the growth of Islamic theology and the expansion of the Muslim social order, and the rise of the mystical Sufi movement. The concluding chapter analyses the problems which confront Islam in the modern world and its reactions to them.
Hamilton Gibb (1895-1971) was born in Alexandria, Egypt. From 1921 to 1937 Gibb taught Arabic at the then School of Oriental Studies becoming a professor there in 1930. He served as an editor of the Encyclopaedia of Islam in this period. In 1937 Gibb succeeded D.S. Margoliouth as Laudian Professor of Arabic with a fellowship at St John's College at Oxford, and remained there for 18 years. Gibb's Mohammedanism, published in 1949, became the basic text used by Western students of Islam for a generation.
In 1955, Gibb became the James Richard Jewett Professor of Arabic and University Professor at Harvard University. The latter, a rare title, is conferred on select scholars "working on the frontiers of knowledge, and in such a way as to cross the conventional boundaries of the specialties." Later, he became director of Harvard's Center For Middle Eastern Studies, and in this capacity he became a leader of the movement in American universities to set up centres of regional studies, bringing together teachers, researchers and students in different disciplines to study the culture and society of a region of the world. A library at Harvard, the Gibb Islamic Seminar Library, is named in his honor.

In Kingdoms Live, the quests provide you experience, gold and looted items. Every quest has a unique requirement of items, spells, mana and army size. Press "Quests" from the bottom menu to enjoy this section of the game.
Understanding the Quest screen:
The header of this screen is same as for the main menu and other screens. From the header you can keep track of your available mana which is required by the quests, so you can choose the one in your range. The detail description of this header is given on Main Menu's page.
Under this header, different location tabs are given where you can do quests. Every location has its own quests. Choose the location of your interest and its related quests will appear in a list below.
The quests and locations are unlocked as you advance in the game. Higher levels unlock hard quests with advance requirements and rewards.
The format for all the quests is same. If you understand it well then it becomes easy for you to choose a quest. The name of the quest is given at the top, in a coloured strip under which its stats are given.
Under the name, the range of gold which you can achieve is given in yellow colour. For example, if it is written 20-27, it means that when you will complete the quest successfully, you will be rewarded with any random gold amount ranging from 20 to 27.
You gain experience after completing the quest. It is fixed and do not change. The experience for the quest is given under gold in white colour.
Loot chance:
If that quest has any loot chance, it will be highlighted in yellow colour by the words "chance of loot". The looted items work in the same way as other armory. The only difference is that they cannot be purchased like others and can only be looted from the quests.
The requirements for a quest are given under the heading "required". Every requirement is represented by its tiny picture and its quantity needed. For example, in Fight Soldier the mana is represented by a blue ball and 1 which means one mana is required for that quest.
The quests require specific items, spells or army size. If you do not meet any of the requirements, you will be unable to do that quest. The requirements which you do not fulfil are highlighted red which helps you analysing the quests quickly.
Towards the right side there is only one button; "Do it". Press it if you want to do that quest. The result will appear in a second in which your rewards and used things will be mentioned. You can do a quest as many times as you want.
How to choose a quest?
Choose the quest according to your need of the game. If you want gold, do quests with more gold rewards. If you want to get more experience to reach next level then choose the ones with more experience points. If you have less mana, do the quests with less mana requirement. If you need looted items in your armory or these items are required by other quests, then do quests with a loot chance. It is a good idea to do a variety of quests.
- Increase your maximum limit of mana by using skill points. It will allow you to do more quests in one session.
- When you have used all of your mana, come after sometime as it will be restored by then. Play several times a day to avail the opportunity of restored mana.
- Visit the page "Types of quests" to have knowledge of all the quests in Kingdoms Live.

As many of you know, back over Memorial Weekend, our basement flooded. This was the result of about 10 inches of rain in less than a week. The water poured into our basement for several days. At its worst, we had 1-2 inches of water across the entire basement. Fortunately, we were able to get Service Master in right away and they sucked out about 500 gallons of water and set up industrial strength blowers and dehumidifiers. They also had to rip out the carpet and cut out about 2 feet of sheet rock and insulation around most of the basement. Then we just had to wait for things to dry out. Sounds like a lot of fun, doesn't it?
After about 5 weeks we were confident that everything was dried out and we started putting things back together. Here's the story through my photos:
This bedroom was one of the wettest rooms
This is the other bedroom drying out and as you can see, they had to take all of the baseboard off.
The bathroom is where the flood began.
This is the family room as it was drying out….isn't it lovely?
Once the water stopped flowing, Service master came back and tore out sheet rock…in the bedroom.
…..and the other bedroom
….and the bathroom
…..AND the family room
Meanwhile, things are pretty chaotic upstairs, too!
Doesn't everyone have a mattress, wet vac and dehumidifier in their living room?
The living room turned into a makeshift bedroom.
Finally things dried out and we were able to start putting things back together. First up was sheet rock.
It was so good to see progress.
It's getting there.
Please….no more rain!
Once the sheet rocking was done, we could paint and schedule the flooring to be installed. So our first couple of days of vacation, right before the 4th of July, were spent painting, cleaning and putting baseboard back up. Once the flooring was installed, there was still a lot of work left to do, but it was more of the fun stuff. We had never really decorated the basement before, so we decided now was the time. We got some new furniture and some new accessories and put all of the rooms back together.
Now for the after photos!
Now it's done and it's time to enjoy our new space!!

Oh and John, if the car isn't it that magazine, it's in another magazine. I promise! I just can't remember which, I have so many subscriptions...
1981 Scirocco
2010 Sportwagen TDI
Philadelphia, PA
are those really ferrari wheels?
They aren't from a Ferrari, they are called Momo Ferrari.
eh, I read somebody just insured a Volvo Scirocco. Now That is an ultra stiff chassis...
I wonder what happened to get this thing banned by the "IRA" as well??
ok in the description it says
windage tray and crankshaft oil scrapers
the vw motorsport windage tray and scraper seem like overkill or makes the scraper almost useless

Thank you to those of you who posted them!
Someday I will post something stupid here, but not yet.
Just caught this... the known durocco's do not have sunroofs/escape hatches
So I emailed him to ask him what documentation and mentioned a few things (That I read above LOL) - anyway wanted to knwo what documentation because without it it's just a 16v, it's all in the documenation.
Notice how it doesn't require a shred of evidence since he replaced it?
His response:
Hi Scott: You are probably correct in some ways about Rally Sciroccos, except these bodies were "recycled" back into production at Karman, meaning they were rebuilt back to standard bodies where they could. There was an article all about these cars in Road & Track, Car & Driver or VW Porsche in 1986 that showed the cars and gave details of how they worked, and why they were banned. When this car was recalled for the leaking plastic fuel tank, the dealer could not get the steel tank to fit because of the brackets (looked like triangles with big hole thru each). I surmised they were mounts for a subframe since that would be the logical way to mount a rear drivetrain, I never saw the underside of the car in the article. I got nurfed in the rear panel a couple of years ago, and decided to replace it instead of fixing it. This panel was twice the price of a standard one, and came in a box marked VW Motorsport, checking the paper trail, it did come from there. I did not say this is a Rally Scirocco, only that it has a recycled body from one.
I lived in NJ where VAG headquarters are, and they sold a lot of odd cars there. I bought a 78 Scirocco new that had been ordered by a VAG employee, who changed his mind and bought one from the dealer. It had an aluminum hood, doors, and hatch, 4 wheel disc brakes, etc. I had one of 500 1991 Passat wagons sold in the 5 state area around NJ that were synchro, 2L turbo 16V motors, Bilsteins, Euro height, etc. Ever see a 8V turbo Scirocco 2? They made several 1000. Enjoy your VW's they are great cars! Thanks for the info! Earl

Why cannot people spell SYNCRO correctly EVER? There is no "H". That said, if you owned one, and had a clue what you owned, then you could spell it.
Several 1000 8v turbo Sciroccos
98 Passat V6, 90 Corrado TDI, 84 Scirocco GTi
Anyone else notice their advanced jacking system with a hi-low/fork lift?
ok IMO it might be rare in some sorts but it was recycled back to stock
that's like saying the I own a ralley UR quattro that was put back to stock it was awesome but now its not what it could have been

It gets better....someone reported him as a scammer, and I will do so if I see that car for sale again.
My email:
What documentation do you have ot back that mechanics legend up with?
It would truly be worth that price if you ahd documentation, but without it - you know, just a SWEET 16v ...
There is a red 16v sitting in a field, just GOT to the field last year, thinking about going over and making an offer but last I spoke he was going to gut it and race it..
Without the documentation, honestly, I don't see it selling at that price.
But even one guy that lives over there has seen your car and says it's probably the nicest 16v.
His response to my email:
Hi: Let me guess, you are between 18 & 24 years old, drive a beater VW, wish you could buy my ride, but don't have the money, and probably never will. I am a lot older than you, probably spent more on Ferraris I bought than you will ever make in your lifetime, I've owned 14 VWs, 7 race cars from Formula V to Trans-Am. I bought the 16V just to rally, but liked it so much to drive, I put it on the street. Do not delete my ad again.
No Im 46, have a masters degree in Information Security, I drive a 1980 IMMACULATELY RESTORED Scirocco.
I did not delete your ad. Nor will I delete your hard drive, although I could but I will not because that is not me.
I am an honorable person, 2nd Dan in Shotokan Karate and a VW driver.
I can guess how it got deleted, because about 45 Scirocco owners conversed about this and probably considered it a scam since we have factual evidence that there were no recycled bodies. You have a mechanics legend and a gorgeous 16v, but nothing more.
Here is my beater VW:
