Dog owners were today warned after poisoned sandwiches were reportedly found in a London park.
The snacks were discovered by a member of the public in Croydon Recreation Ground this week, who then alerted the RSPCA.
The charity is urging dog walkers and pet owners in the area to be vigilant.
A spokeswoman said: "These reports are worrying and we would urge anyone with information to contact us.
"We will investigate every accusation of animal cruelty.
"Anyone found responsible for putting out poison that has caused suffering to animals could face up to six months in prison and a fine of up to £20,000 under the Animal Welfare Act."
The news comes as two bull lurchers and a springer spaniel died after ingesting poison in Fryent Country Park in Brent, north-west London.
PETA have since offered a £1,000 reward for information leading to the capture of a poisoner.
Anyone with information about the sandwiches should call the RSPCA on the Cruelty and Advice line on 0300 123 4999.

Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
I believe a #3 fob will not utilize personalized settings and won't remote start car.

Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
Yes, Method 1:
The vehicle must be OFF.
Place a known key fob within the interior of the vehicle.
Insert the vehicle key in the driver door lock cylinder located in the driver door handle and cycle the key 5 times within 5 seconds.
The DIC will display a message: READY FOR FOB X (X = fob 2, 3, or 4).
Place the replacement key fob in the console fob pocket with the buttons facing forward.
A beep will occur and the DIC will display: READY FOR FOB X (X = fob 3 or 4) or MAX FOBS LEARNED.
The fob will do everything except as posted after my post, it will not remote start the car, haven't tried setting up a new driver with it either.

Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
There's a chance someone might be able to match fob's as 1 & 2 for a Canadian car. Since the programming sequence begins with the mechanical key, this would require an assistant to get started.
Stand with both fob's over 35 feet away from the car and have your assistant start the procedure and do the Canadian Fob Ritual. If your assistant tells you 'Waiting For FOB 1', you are on your way. If not, toss in your new one and get ready to try again sometime.
The remote functions (Lock, Unlock, Start, Trunk) work up to 300 feet away. Use phones
Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
Ok, I put the key in the door cylinder and turned it to the right once then hit the lock button on the remote twice (horn honks) and repeated that I think 5 times. The DIC then showed READY FOR FOB 3. I then put the Key fob 2 that I bought off eBay in the pocket and it then showed READY FOR FOB 4. Success?
Fob 2 doesn't do anything though. Could be the battery is dead?
I did the process again to see if I screwed up the process but it says READY FOR FOB 4 this time, so I figured it accepted it.
Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
Did you follow the programming procedure exactly, including pressing the Lock button on the remote to lock it in?
From the above, it sounds like you added a fob as #3 but may not have followed the manual (or in the post(s) linked in the 'sticky' thread at the top of the forum, it's easy to miss a step. To match a new (lost) #2, start with all the fobs out-of-range and the DIC will ask for #1.
- 08-26-14 12:37 AM #22Originally Posted by EChas3
That asked for Fob 3. I put my spare fob #2 in the pocket in the console then it asked for Fob 4. I hit the ACC button to turn the power in the car off.
Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
After removing a fob from the pocket, my 2006 Manual says to:
Remove the keyless access transmitter and press
the unlock button twice to initialize it.
The procedure linked from the 'sticky' just says to activate the fob, so I don't if it varies. Resetting all the fobs (starts with #1) adds another set of double-locks at the end before all old fobs are permanently 'locked out'. (Although some memory of its pairing appears to persist.
If you don't have an owners manual, you can download a pdf version around here somewhere. A paper one is nice to have in the glovebox (even if not much else will fit. Cheap from Helm.com.

Is there a way to deprogram a remote so that I can try the procedure again?

Using the Tech2 scan tool, all fobs can be invalidated, so you can start fresh.

Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
Read your manual or the thread linked at the top of the forum. If you start the fob matching procedure with all fobs out of sensing range, it starts with #1. No big deal. I did it a few times when trying to find a way to match a single fob to two cars (nope, not possible.)
Re: 05 STS Key Fob spare...
Sorry I am gonna resurrect this old dinosaur. I too have a Canadian car, and I cannot get it to drop into FOB program mode.
Car came with only one FOB, I bought one off Ebay, but have no way to get into program mode, has anyone ever found a way to clear all fobs and reprogram a canadian car without Tech2 or a trip to the Stealer?
Follow up question.. What is it that makes it a US/Canada car, is it the NAV unit, another module or both? What I wonder is if you change out the nav unit would it disable the canadian unlock delay or is that possible to be disabled some other way?

Republicans, for the love of all that is good, get some help. The White House tweeted out a picture of President Obama holding a baby and Republican heads exploded. All the right wing sites are picking up this news breaking story.
The Blaze ran with this headline (which is false, duh!), "WHITE HOUSE CELEBRATES ARRIVAL OF ROYAL BABY WITH… A PICTURE OF OBAMA." The Republican caps are theirs, not mine.
It began with this tweet:
Oh, hello there! pic.twitter.com/WvoZ2WiIrs
— The White House (@whitehouse) July 22, 2013
PJ media's post in total reads, "So the geniuses at the White House decided that it was a good idea to insert President Obama into the buzz about the British royal baby birth today. So they tweeted.An official statement of congratulations on White House stationery would have been more dignified. This is the birth of England's 43rd monarch, after all. The royal baby turned out to be a boy. The baby in the photo is wearing a pink onesie with little pink flowers on her diaper, and is therefore a girl."
No shit it's a girl! So we can conclude that this is just an image of Obama holding a baby and not a conspiracy. Even if this represented a congratulatory tweet, welcome to 2013, where we have the social media at our bidding to tweet pictures.
The bullshit:
White House finds photo of O with English-looking baby RT @whitehouse Oh, hello there! pic.twitter.com/DTmrHBd0nM
— Bridget Johnson (@Bridget_PJM) July 22, 2013
The outrage:
OMG, Obama & the @WhiteHouse can't stand when someone else gets attention, can they? RT @whitehouse: Oh, hello there! pic.twitter.com/nA757JloJr — Jamie (@JmeMiller74) July 22, 2013
The idiocy:
@JmeMiller74@ezralevant@whitehouse country facing crippling debt, race riots, and security threats, great time for baby photos. — Justin Kaplan (@Kaplan86) July 22, 2013
A Tweet from the Right Sphere, who I blocked ages ago:
That's creepy as hell. — RB (@RBPundit) July 22, 2013
Why is it 'creepy' that the President is holding a baby? No wonder I blocked the creep.
The assholes:
"you're just a tiny little punishment. yes you are!" RT @whitehouse: Oh, hello there! http://t.co/N320Y99z6b
— sarah (@mamaswati) July 22, 2013
The reality via a congratulatory statement:
Michelle and I are so pleased to congratulate the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on the joyous occasion of the birth of their first child. We wish them all the happiness and blessings parenthood brings. The child enters the world at a time of promise and opportunity for our two nations. Given the special relationship between us, the American people are pleased to join with the people of the United Kingdom as they celebrate the birth of the young prince.
More reality:
It's my understanding that the baby in the picture belongs to a staffer who is leaving.
Weasel Zippers (a far right wing cesspool) ran with the tweeted picture adding, "Is it me or does Obama look like he's about to vomit on that baby?"
I thought you guys were pro-life? Obama holds a baby = eevil! Twitchy ran with the tweet. Others did too but I'm tired of linking to them. I can only take so much hatred in one day. Don't judge me.

Big Deal
The Miami Art Museum is exhibiting seven large scale paintings by American master James Rosenquist, in what the curator hails as an extraordinary coup. This marks his first U.S. museum show since his retrospective at the Guggenheim in 2003, gushes Lori Mertes. The exhibit is a tremendous opportunity for the public to engage with the work of one of the foremost artists of our time. Period!
Brazil and The Xenophobic Movie Director or Our Foreign Policy, which make their first stateside appearance, are knockout examples of Rosenquists skull-staving style. The boxing ring-size works are stunning examples of the artists massive scale paintings, stemming from his early stint painting commercial billboards in Manhattans Times Square. Since the late Fifties, James Rosenquist has been creating an exceptional and consistently intriguing body of work, says Mertes, mentioning the artist rifled the seedbed of mass visual language to convey a slice of contemporary life and the political tenor of the times. Not surprisingly his command of texture, color, line, and form continues to dazzle audiences and influence young artists today.
In an age when many artists use computers and other technology to create monumental works, Rosenquist still follows the old school approach of executing his paintings by hand. His contributions as a painter are incredible and reflect the spirit of post-World War consumerism while charting the political history of the Cold War era. The works are dynamic, mix the hyperreal with the abstract, and are quintessential Rosenquist, Mertes adds. Spanning from 1987 to 2004, these must see paintings explore social, political, and economic issues from a global perspective while expressing Rosenquists interests in science and space. MAM is open from noon to 5:00 p.m. today, and admission is free on Sundays. Call 305-375-3000, or visit www.miamiartmuseum.org.

On the third day of the Turkish military operation in Iraq to crush the outlawed Kurdish Workers Party, fighting intensified between both parties. An estimated 113 terrorists and fifteen soldiers have died as troops battled in northern Iraq. The Turkish military warned the local populace not to provide assistance to Kurdish rebels. "What we expect from the local groups is not to protect the terrorists escaping to the sourthern parts of Iraq." Air raids continue even as ground forces are attempting to crush the Kurdish rebels. Prime Minister Erdogan emphasized to Iraqis there was no intention of trying to take over their land and the object was Kurdish camps.
Ncchirvan Barzani, prime minister of the Kurdish autonomous region of Iraq lowered his rhetoric and acknowledged Turkey had a right to defend itself against rebel attacks. However, he expressed concern "that the infrastructure of the region ws targeted." Barzaini called on President Bush to assist efforts to restore peace to the region. The Iraq government also agreed Turkey had a right of self defense, but also was worried the attack might result in further destabilization of a destablized society.
Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr demanded Turkey cease its invasion of Iraq terriroty and withdraw. The unknown factor in this invasion equation is how militant Shiites will react to an invasion of their nation. What will be Turkey's reaction if large numbers of the PKK escape to southern Iraq– will they be pursued?

Seat Belt Chime
How do you disable the seat belt chime? Before I get a butt chewing about not wearing it, I do in fact wear my seat belt when required. It's the most annoying thing ever when I'm at the boat ramp and it keeps dinging at me to put my seat belt on. There's several other instances where a seat belt is not required and the dinging gets annoying.
I know in all of my past and present Ram trucks you turn the ignition on, plug and unplug the seat belt three times, then turn the ignition off and the the chime is gone. It still shows up on the dash that the seat belt is unhooked, but that's fine with me. I just need to get rid of the dinging!
ebay has some things that plug into the female seatbelt connector and they double as a bottle opener.
Re: Seat Belt Chime
Try this one from this post....
Re: Seat Belt Chime
^^^Yep what he said...It works
Re: Seat Belt Chime
Thanks guys, That's the same process as my Ram but it didn't work the first time I tried it. I'll give it another shot this evening.
Re: Seat Belt Chime
I tried it last night, and again today, no dice.
It's weird, I can't get it to work on mine either. I've tried multiple times and it just doesn't want to take.
Same here. I tried for 10 minutes today on my13
Ok, try this one.
Re: Seat Belt Chime
Worked for me first try last night. Take your time on the unplug-replug cycles, don't rush it. I think that helps.
Re: Seat Belt Chime
I'll give it another shot when I leave work today. Maybe I'm going too fast through the three times.
It chimes after the car is off. I thought I was not disengaging it becuase I was listening for the chime before I hit the power button, but it comes after. Works on my 2013

You haven't lived if you're unfamiliar with "the cat bus", a magical vehicle that appears in Hayao Miyazaki's charming children's adventure, also released in 1988 (the door opens with the eeriest of pings and the seats are covered in fur).
Two boisterous sisters, Satsuki and Mei, move to the countryside with their dad and await the arrival of their mother, who's stuck in hospital with a mysterious disease. One day, Mei crawls through a tunnel of leaves and tumbles on to the stomach of a creature whose roars make her hair stand on end. She roars back and the friendship is sealed. Not as complex or tense as Spirited Away (Hayao Miyazaki's masterpiece, released 13 years later). Still, few things are.

By Paul Gardner
Despite an ambiguously optimistic pronouncement from the surgeon, it seems likely that Colombia's Radamel Falcao, now recovering from an operation to
repair a torn ACL, will not be fit in time to play in the World Cup.
Well, these things happen, you know. I can give you a mountain of pithy quotes from coaches and players who seem never
to be more at home than when telling us that this is a man's game, it's not for ballerinas, it's a contact sport, you have to learn to take the knocks, and so on.
Falcao, by that argument, knew the risks, is extremely well paid to take them, and it's just bad luck that he's suffered a serious injury so close to a World Cup in which he would likely
be major star on what is probably the strongest team Colombia has ever had.
With Falcao -- one of a small elite group of world-class goalscorers -- Colombia is a genuine contender.
Colombia finished second to Argentina in the South American qualifying group; in 13 games, Falcao scored 9 goals, one third of Colombia's total. Only Uruguay's Luis Suarez (11 goals) and
Argentina's Lionel Messi (10) scored more.
Without Falcao, it is unlikely that Colombia will be thought of as a team to be feared. His injury is a huge blow to Colombia's
chances. Quite apart from the fact that the World Cup may be deprived of one of its most exciting players.
Bad luck indeed for Falcao and Colombia. But is it really bad luck? I
don't think so. Because Falcao's injury came during a game that he should never have been playing in.
A French Cup game, pitting his team Monaco against a team of amateurs
from Chasselay, a small town (population under 3,000) in Eastern France. Obviously, a ridiculous mismatch, but one is not supposed to say that.
What one is encouraged to think, and to
say, is that this was yet another heart-warming example of cup soccer, that wonderful system that allows clubs from all levels to play in the same competition. Based, of course, on the English FA Cup
(and copied, of course, by the USA with its Open Cup).
Here was little Chasselay getting its moment in the spotlight, its chance to pull off a major upset by defeating the second best
team in France, with all its highly paid professionals. That is the sort of story - the Cinderella story - that devotees of cup soccer have in mind when they talk of "the glamour" of cup
This so-called glamour is born of the wishful thinking of nostalgia. It is not something that is seen too often in reality these days. The gap in quality between the small teams and
the large (read rich) teams is now far greater than it was back in those dim and distant glamour days.
When a small team takes on a big team nowadays there is not only a yawning gap in
prestige and in salaries, there is a worrying difference in the caliber of the soccer played. Worrying, because there lies danger.
The speed and sophistication of the top-level modern
game is beyond the grasp of most clubs not playing first division soccer. The further down the soccer ladder you go, the more robust the game gets. I mean, more physical, less skilled. Cruder, if you
These "glamour" encounters, with the Davids confronting the Goliaths, are dangerous for skilled players. I see absolutely no reason to assume that maliciousness is part
of the danger. What causes the problem is simply that the players of the lesser teams simply can't cope. They try their best, honestly -- but are made to look inept and, well, amateurish. Their
tackles are the problem -- frequently late, often clumsy.
You can see the tackle that injured Falcao online. It is the tackle of an inferior player, late, inexpert, made with the wrong
foot. It comes more from the side than from behind -- and maybe is the more dangerous for that -- the knee does not bend sideways. The name of the player making the tackle is known, of course it is --
you can find it online -- but I don't see any necessity to mention it here.
Player X -- along with Falcao --
were put in an impossible situation, a dangerous mismatch that produced a serious injury. What's the point of blaming Player X? Even his apparently callous post-game statement that the incident
had "ruined the game for me" was no doubt intended to demonstrate his remorse.
We know something about these calamitous clashes between skill and inexperience. In MLS, in
April 2011, we saw David Ferreira of Dallas get his ankle badly mangled by a reckless tackle from an inexperienced Vancouver defender. Ferreira was out of the game for a year, and never seemed to me
to recover his full, sparkling form.
More recently - last May -- we had a season-ending injury to the Columbus Crew's Eddie Gaven. The same fate as Falcao -- Gaven suffered a torn
ACL. And the same situation – a cup mismatch between the Crew and the Dayton Dutch Lions of the USL. And we have the word of the Crew coach Robert Warzycha that the tackle on Gaven was
"not malicious." Nevertheless it was highly dangerous.
The obvious way to prevent these dangerous situations is to ban the cup format entirely, or to modify it and make it
unlikely that the top pro clubs will meet up with manifestly inferior teams. But that, of course, would remove most of the glamour aspect.
The coaches of the pro clubs are well aware of
the danger to their stars. But what to do? Should the coach decide to field a reserve team -- probably capable of winning the game -- he will be accused of slighting the smaller club, and of depriving
its fans of an opportunity of seeing the big stars in action.
If not a reserve team, then a team without the really big names -- but that, too, smacks of condescension towards the small
team. The players themselves may feel that it is right thing to do, a true sporting gesture, to play in these games.
But the games will continue because they mean money -- not so much for
the big clubs, for them the rewards are peanuts -- but for the small clubs. The soccer argument -- that the cup is all about the fame and the glory to be earned from beating Arsenal or Liverpool -- as
so often in the modern game, must now take second place to the financial argument. It's the money that matters.

Prison Support System Aims to Include Families
A pilot program in Michigan will seek to increase family support for prisoners and help families navigate the prison system.
The Detroit Free Press reports Lois DeMott, who co-founded Lansing-based Citizens for Prison Reform in 2011, plans step down from her post as the group's president to serve as a liaison between prisoners' families and officials at three prisons.
DeMott, whose son was incarcerated until about a year ago, says she had a hard time dealing with officials in trying to make sure his medical, mental health and other needs were being met. She learned how to navigate the system through trial and error.
The Michigan Family Participation Program is planned for Macomb Correctional Facility in New Haven, Earnest C. Brooks Correctional Facility near Muskegon and a third prison.

Since the dealer told me there was a chain driving my 2000 catera I was forced to find a repair shop that knew what they were doing. I Decided to take it to Church & Sons auto repair up town. The estimate they gave me blew my mind!! So with that in mind I went ahead and had them replace control arm bushings, ball joints, and tranny service + filter. Total Repair cost..... $717. Want to hear the best part!?! They had the belt, tranny filter and other parts IN STOCK!! AMAZING! All in about a day and a half. I'm going back for a new water pump, $130 and valve cover gaskets $347.

What happened: Florida defeated Northwestern; Gators earned No. 1 seed in ALC tournament and won regular season in-conference title.
Takeaway: In a weekend filled with exciting games nationwide, there wasn't one more electrifying than this one. In just their third season as a Division I program, the Gators have defeated Northwestern in back-to-back seasons to take home their second regular season ALC title. Showcasing some of the nation's most elite talent top to bottom, this game came down to the wire in what has quickly become one of the fiercest rivalries in Division I women's lacrosse.
It was Richmond transfer Gabi Wiegand who led the way for the Florida Gators in Evanston as she recorded four points (2g,2a) on the afternoon. The WomensLax.com Player of The Week put in the game-winner with just under six minutes to play. But, the brightest spot of the afternoon arguably came from the other end of the field. A complete defensive effort stifled a potent Northwestern attack as Jamie Reeg held Shannon Smith to just two goals and Sam Farrell caused three key turnovers to secure the win. Haydon Judge completely blanked Northwestern's Kara Mupo and Mikey Meagher made a number crucial saves down the stretch.
Double Takeaway: The competition in 2012 has been extraordinary. Northwestern, Syracuse, North Carolina, Florida and Maryland remain battling it out each week for the top spots and have all dashed one another's hopes at a "perfect season." With not a single undefeated team left in the D-I ranks, Northwestern still sits on top of the polls in what has become one of tightest races in recent years. The margin of victory separating No.'s 1-5? Often no more than a single goal. Heading into conference tournaments and selection Sunday, a slew of teams are still in the hunt and there is no clear "favorite" for the national championship title. The road to Stony Brook will undoubtedly be an exciting drive.
What happened: Princeton upended Dartmouth, 12-9, making things interesting in the Ivy League ranks.
Takeaway: In a crucial win for the Princeton Tigers, Dartmouth suffered their first conference loss of the season. Cassie Pyle led the way with four goals and Erin McMunn came off the bench to add three. Rookie Annie Woehling recorded nine saves as the No. 20 Tigers topped No. 8 Dartmouth in Princeton, NJ on Saturday.
So what does this all mean? Here's a look at the Ivy League tournament race…
Who's out?
-Columbia (0-7 in the Ivy), Yale (2-5 in the Ivy) & Brown (1-5 in the Ivy)
Games that will decide the regular season Ivy League champion and seeds 1-4 in the Ivy League tournament:
-Princeton vs. Penn (Wednesday, 7pm)
-Harvard vs. Dartmouth (Friday, 7pm)
-Brown vs. Cornell (Saturday, 12pm)
Scenario 1: Princeton beats Penn, Dartmouth beats Harvard and Cornell beats Brown.
-Dartmouth would be the No. 1 seed and the tournament will be played in Hanover, NH.
-Penn, Cornell and Princeton would all be tied with records of 5-2. Harvard is eliminated.
-Tie-break #1: Head-to-head. This leaves each team 1-1 against one another.
- Tie-break #2: Record against the next highest seed (i.e. Dartmouth). Princeton would be the No. 2 seed. Since neither remaining team (Penn, Cornell) beat Dartmouth, the tie-break would revert back to head-to-head vs. one another. Penn would take the No. 3 seed and Cornell the No, 4.
Scenario 2: Princeton beats Penn, Harvard beats Dartmouth and Brown beats Cornell.
-Dartmouth, Penn, Harvard & Princeton would all be tied at 5-2 (no clear No. 1 seed). Cornell is eliminated.
-Tie-break #1: Head-to-head. Harvard and Princeton are both 2-1; while Dartmouth and Penn are both 1-2.
-Harvard would be the No. 1 seed and the Ivy Tournament will be played in Cambridge, MA. Princeton earns the No. 2 seed, Dartmouth No. 3 and Penn No. 4.
Scenario 3: Penn beats Princeton.
Dartmouth would be the No. 1 seed and the tournament will be played in Hanover, NH.
-Penn is the No. 2 seed.
-Even if Harvard and Cornell both lose, they both earn the tie-breaker over Princeton. Cornell will take the No. 3 seed because of their victory of Harvard; Harvard will be No. 4 and Princeton is eliminated.
Scenario 4: Princeton, Harvard and Cornell all win.
-There is a five-way tie for first place and five teams would be named Ivy League champion: Dartmouth, Penn, Princeton, Harvard and Cornell.
-Tie-break #1: Head-to-head. Everyone is even.
-Tie-break #2: Record against the next highest seed. This is irrelevant as there is no clear No. 1 seed and each of the five teams beat Brown, Columbia and Yale.
-Tie-break #3: Goal differential vs. one another. This can't be determined yet (final three games have not been played), but at this point the standings would be: Cornell +4, Dartmouth +1, Penn E, Princeton -1, Harvard -4. Thus, Cornell earns the No. 1 seed and the tournament will be in Ithaca, NY.
-Back to the beginning: Now that the No. 1 seed has been decided, we return to tie-break #1. Harvard would be the No. 2 seed, Princeton No. 3, Dartmouth No. 4. Penn is eliminated.
What happened: Maryland wins ACC crown; Terps routed Blue Devils en route to edging Carolina in the final.
Takeaway: The ACC tournament often previews a final four matchup of some sort. Whether it's Maryland vs. Duke or North Carolina vs. UVA, the battle of perennial powers just a month before championship weekend leads way to discussions of "favorites" and "dark horses." This past weekend's Atlantic Coast Conference tournament did not disappoint. Duke and North Carolina, a pair of squads that defeated Maryland earlier this season, fell victim to the Terrapins balanced attack as Maryland cruised to their fourth consecutive ACC crown.
Katie Schwarzmann was virtually unstoppable. The reigning first team All American and Tewaaraton Trophy finalist recorded ten points (8g, 2a) in the pair of games and was named the tournament's MVP. Karri Ellen Johnson and Alex Aust were sensational as Maryland's attack was firing on all cylinders. It's hard to say that the No. 5 (recent polls) team is "peaking" at the right time; but, the Terps have finally shown what they are capable of. Their speed and depth were on display Monday evening as they looked like a team primed for another championship game appearance.
What happened: Georgetown took Notre Dame down to the wire, but the Irish escaped in double overtime.
Takeaway: No. 15 Georgetown nearly pulled off the upset, but No. 7 Notre Dame escaped the Hoyas in Washington, D.C. on Saturday to hand Georgetown their third conference loss of the season. Tied at half and again at the end of regulation, it took two overtimes before sophomore Lindsay Powell found the back of the net. Powell was one of seven Notre Dame players to record a goal in Saturday's game, as Maggie Tamasitis led the way with three points (1g, 2a).
The Irish have fought their way back into the NCAA hunt this season. After experiencing a "down" year in 2011, Notre Dame has returned to the top ten ranks and find themselves in NCAA tournament contention whether or not they win the Big East tournament automatic bid. Maggie Tamasitis continues to impress as Coach Halfpenny's new-look Irish feature more of a balanced attacking unit than in years past. Ellie Hilling has been exceptional in goal as Megan Sullivan and Margaret Smith add dimension through the midfield. Traveling to the Carrier Dome in just over a week, the Irish will likely enter the tourney as the No. 3 seed — the same seed Notre Dame entered as when they captured the crown in 2009.

Wow, Nokia CEO Stephen Elop gets tons of honesty points for calling the Symbian landscape a "burning platform".
The company led the high end device market for quite some time and deserve credit for doing so. They are also now smart to recognize the need for radical change. It's hard for a company that size to change quickly, so let's stay tuned to see how they do.
Word is that they're looking to either embrace Android or Windows 7 Mobile technology for their smart phones. Microsoft often gets things right on their second or third try, like they did with their Internet and browser strategy. However, at this point, I think Android would be the right path for Elop to choose.

The mining boom has been good for some, but too many of us are being left behind. From constructions sites to paper mills to mines, jobs are disappearing and hurting our communities.

Despite this, Malcolm Turnbull has no plan for our jobs, our kids or our future. But we do.

A Few Things Ill Considered
Tag archives for heartland
Still back at Keith Kloor's place, Judith Curry seems determined to dig in to her position that governments and the IPCC and consensus minded science bloggers need to take the climate skeptics more seriously. Personally I think she completely misses the boat, because most of these folks have in fact been soundly debunked, or at…
Heartland Institute is hosting a "scholarly" event in New York this weekend. Here is a description of what to expect.

I poached some chicken for our dinner last night and with the extras I made chicken salad for a sandwich today. I put a little mayo, salt n pepper, dill, dried cranberries, and sliced almonds. I really wish I had some grapes to put in it, but it was pretty good as is.

text: 000 FXUS65 KGJT 220442 AFDGJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service GRAND JUNCTION CO 1042 PM MDT Wed Jun 21 2017 .UPDATE... Issued at 943 PM MDT Wed Jun 21 2017 Latest numeric model guidance suggesting more wind on Thursday than previously indicated. Given persistent heat, relative humidity will continue to run in the single digits during the afternoon. Low RH combined with frequent wind gusts to 25 MPH and above for much of the area will bring critical fire weather conditions to much of eastern Utah and southwest and west-central Colorado. Therefore, have decided to issue a Red Flag Warning from noon to 10 PM MDT Thursday for the areas defined in the WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES section which follows. && .SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Thursday night) Issued at 305 PM MDT Wed Jun 21 2017 A 596 DM ridge of high pressure remains centered over the southwestern CONUS this Wednesday afternoon. Diurnally driven afternoon convection has once again developed over the higher terrain, aided by marginal mid-level moisture still lingering on the northern fringes of the ridge of high pressure. Some lightning has been noted throughout the day with this convection, as well as briefly gusty winds. DCAPE values sit in the 1000-2000 range per model sounding analysis, with the KGJT morning sounding indicating around 1570J/kg. Temperatures remain on track this afternoon, and convection should diminish after sunset this evening. One more day of near record warmth is expected on Thursday before temps cool down a bit this weekend. A weak 300mb speed maximum will pass north of the Four Corners on Thursday morning. This increase in winds aloft will tend to aid/organize any thunderstorms that do form during the afternoon hours, and some dry lightning is again expected area-wide in the higher terrain. There will be an uptick in afternoon winds and wind gusts as well, however guidance is in fairly good agreement keeping values below Red Flag Warning thresholds. Will continue to hold off on any headlines in this forecast package. Once again with the loss of daytime heating, any lingering convection will diminish overnight. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday) Issued at 305 PM MDT Wed Jun 21 2017 A diffuse frontal boundary will drift south and east through eastern Utah and western Colorado on Friday morning as a larger upper-level trough moves east through the high plains. This front will act to take the edge off the extreme heat over the western slope on Friday and through the weekend. Temperatures are still expected to be around 5 degrees above average each day, however record heat will no longer be in the forecast. As the front passes Friday, some mid-level cloud cover will pass through. Mostly clear skies will return on Saturday and Sunday as the southwestern ridge of high pressure reloads for early next week. The next peak in afternoon high temperatures will come early next week as the renewed ridge of high pressure in the southwest builds eastward. The hottest day during this time period will likely come on Tuesday as the ridge axis passes just east of the Four Corners and southwesterly warm air advection inches mid-level temperatures up slightly. Beyond Tuesday, models begin to diverge with the evolution of a weak trough moving in along the Pacific coast. The GFS shows a deeper system that brings a strong gradient and a windy day on Wednesday, before a frontal passage and possible thunderstorm activity next Thursday. The ECMWF keeps this trough weaker and much farther north, with dry weather and mostly zonal flow through the period. This forecast package reflects the drier solution, in line with the operational ECMWF as well as EPS ensemble guidance. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night) Issued at 1042 PM MDT Wed Jun 21 2017 A few showers will linger overnight bringing a slight chance for rain and strong outflow winds. High based showers and thunderstorms are again expected Thursday afternoon with gusty outflow winds being the primary threat with not much rain expected. Otherwise, VFR conditions will prevail over the next 24 hours. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 943 PM MDT Wed Jun 21 2017 Fire Weather conditions are now expected to exceed critical levels for much of eastern Utah and southwest and west-central Colorado Thursday afternoon/evening. Some stronger winds aloft will move over the region overnight into Thursday morning. As mixing commences during the afternoon hours, frequent gusts upward of 25 mph can be expected in the areas previously mentioned. Dry lightning is again possible on Thursday, however chances are a bit lower with best chances over the higher peaks along the Continental Divide. Precipitation chances will drop to near 0 during the weekend. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 305 PM MDT Wed Jun 21 2017 A flood advisory has been issued for the Roaring Fork River in Aspen as snowmelt and tunnel closures upstream have caused the river to reach bankfull. This advisory will run through Friday evening. A number of streams and creeks also continue to run strong, cold, and high and will continue to do so through the week. Where water is running high, river banks may become saturated and unstable. Lowlands along the rivers may also become inundated with water. Remember if you are going to raft, kayak or tube on the rivers be sure to always wear a life jacket. && .GJT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CO...Red Flag Warning from noon to 10 PM MDT Thursday for COZ203-207- 290-292. Heat Advisory until 10 PM MDT Thursday for COZ006. UT...Red Flag Warning from noon to 10 PM MDT Thursday for UTZ486-487- 490-491.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Darth Tater, Nov 16, 2009.
I don't understand. Bill has always been such a nice guy.
Iverson choked up, shows emotional and tells everyone that he still has something to prove to his fans and himself. Iverson Choked Up Over Return To Philly The team is 29th in the league in attendance, so tickets for the first few games will pick as his first two games are vs his two former teams Nuggets & Pistons
Although I am not an Iverson fan, I'm glad he has this opportunity to go home. I think that crowd is going to be really jacked. Just what the sixers needed. And Iverson. I think this was a shrewd business decision for a flailing franchise that needed a defibrillator. I always thought it was defibulator but Roscoe's spell check is telling me otherwise. I will go with Roscoe.
As I watched the Iverson interview, this song popped into my head. You have to be a little old to appreciate it. YouTube - Basketball Jones
Bill is such a nice fair gentleman I'm sure we'll be able to come to some kind of mutual understanding about the player of my heart. I just know it. My people will talk to his people and we will compare rosters and it will all work out the way it does with people of highmindedness and good intentions.
I was 19 when this came out in 74................
Sometimes I think I am the only one who cannot be on there 24/7 to grab players when they are avail. Someone also took him in the adv league. There is a reason. He seems very inspired and as Ben Wallace did this year - there is no place like home.
Perhaps I picked up AI just for Aurora so that no one else could get him before her.
There is a reason, the only reason, Rebok was the only one to make all this happened both Sixers and AI are just to play and fit in the scenario.
IVERSON at his press conference: :(:(
I am not questioning his sincerity but he may have turned around his image of the past 2 seasons with that one press conference.
AI excels in the press conference. For someone who is supposed to be so "real" he comes off as quite phony to me. He talks a good game, but walks another.
With 27 PPG and 2.5 SPL career averages he has walked all he has talked. Thing is can he still do it?
See? I knew it all along. That is why before I even read this post at the top of my to do list today after 1. pay credit card bills is 2. do 9 category analysis of the Aurora Franchise and the Laiminators and prepare fair and balanced trade offer to Bill Laimbeer. I have given up all hope of being able to watch AI's game Monday night. The only possibliity is driving home four days early from my vacation with my sister to my sports media room in Sacramento that has NBA League Pass and NBATV on HDTV by 4 pm Monday. However, this would forever blacken my name in our family. The phone wires would be burning up with "Can you believe Kimmy cares more about seeing this AI guy play basketball than staying with us for another four days?"It's just a horrible development and I can truly say that it is all AI's fault, but I'm happy for him and selfishly miserable for me. LOL. At least I can see the Pistons play for the first time in a month on ESPN on Wednesday and AI too, but still... If I had known I was going to miss an entire month of Pistons basketball I would never have come on this dogsitting job road trip and left the safe ensconcement of my sports dedicated media room. League Pass Broadband was but a mirage.
That's very true. A tv guy named Marshall McLuhan wrote all about it. Some media are hot and some are cool. I think tv is a cool medium. Some people are great on tv and in press conferences and have major charisma and others are really flat. Kennedy was perfect for tv and he was the first "tv" president. Nixon was horrible, but very personable, warm and engaring in person. The effectiveness and funniness of AI's whole practice rant has to do with that quality and the delivery and cadence, all of which are communicating qualities. I'm sure the practice rant is much funnier on tv than it was live in the press conference. Charles Barkley is the same way. Most of what Charles says if he was sitting in your living room wouldn't be as entertaining as it is on camera.
I know they won't show the NBA TV games on the League Pass Broadband Archives, but do you have a DVR at your place and is there anyone who can get into it and set it to record Monday's game for you??? With Direct TV I can program my DVR from the road thru my laptop or phone, but does Comcast or whomever your cable provider is have that feature?
I can't wait to see AI in Eddie Jordan's Princeton offense.
They already said they're basically killing the PO, lol. Aurora: Don't know whether this will help NBA.com - NBA LEAGUE PASS MOBILE ;) Its been fun reading about the fantasy league problems, lol
*Sigh* Beef in Philly about the bench already!!! Jordan likes Brand as the Sixth man, Brand does not "accept it" ;) Brand: "I don't accept it" | Philadelphia Inquirer | 12/04/2009
I haven't looked out the window lately, so I'm not sure, but I think the apocalypse must be here the day that Allen Iverson has to be evaluated by Aaron McKie in ANYTHING in order to be cleared to play.
Separate names with a comma.

Jamie Herbst
Director of human resources, Menorah Park Center for Senior Living
Jamie Herbst
Under Jamie Herbst, the focus on superb customer service skills isn't a one-time hiring consideration. Rather, it's a biweekly lesson.
Ms. Herbst implemented 12 years ago and maintains to this day a customer service training program for staff that has enabled Menorah Park Center for Senior Living to consistently achieve the highest customer service rankings from not only clients, but third parties as well.
Every two weeks, the entire organization receives formal customer service training, for which Ms. Herbst coordinates a staff of 40 trainers and develops new lesson plans.
"Jamie's devotion to (the) customer service training and interviewing program ... marks her as a step above her peers," the nomination said.
"She does not see her focus as solely inspiring and mentoring other HR professionals, but anyone with a key position at Menorah Park," it continued. "There is always a caring component built into the regular workshops that Jamie has developed that focus on HR topics, such as legality and hiring, handling disciplinary issues and trends in recruitment and retention."
Ms. Herbst also instituted management roundtables that meet monthly to discuss critical management topics. As such, "the managers at Menorah Park are trained to treat people well," the nomination said.
That appears to be paying off: Menorah Park enjoyed a low 6% turnover rate among full-time staff last year — "remarkable for a senior living campus," where the industry average is 40% to 50%, the nomination said.
Reaching beyond Menorah Park's four walls, Ms. Herbst encourages the staff to give, and has taken a leadership role in charitable campaigns for the Jewish and general communities, facilitating, for example, the Week for Rainbow program for Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospitals. She also initiated the Ohio State versus Michigan food drive.

Shaw Grigsby has been around the Elite circuit long enough to know who is who in the game. The 14-time Classic qualifier has seen his share of up and comers and crash and burners.
That's why Bassmaster.com wanted to pick his brain to see who he would put on his Classic Fantasy Fishing team. Grigsby said he has never played Bassmaster Fantasy Fishing, but that shouldn't stop him from selecting a competive lineup.
The veteran knows the anglers and their strengths. That's the key to how he picked from the salty Group A list of Ott Defoe, Edwin Evers, Greg Hackney, Michael Iaconelli, Aaron Martens and Kevin VanDam.
This is a star-studded, super six, and every fantasy player would love nothing more than to pick all his players from it, but that's not how it works. Players choose one angler each from Groups A through E.
Group A
Grigsby: "You can only take one of those guys? I would have just about chosen all of them! It's awful hard anytime you're in a Classic to not to choose Kevin VanDam. I mean he's the monster. He's the guy that can catch them anywhere, anytime.
B.A.S.S.: Why do you think KVD is going to be better on the river this year than the last time he was there?
Grigsby: "You can't ever bet against him if he's in the tournament; he's probably going to be at the top. He wins more than anybody and you can't bet against him, that's the bottom line and you got to have him on your team. If you bet on him every time you'll make a lot more money than you'll lose."
Group B
This is a bunch of anglers who know how to get it done. These guys won't go down without throwing a few punches. Any of these anglers could win it all.
Grigsby: "Great group of guys, Alton Jones, David Walker and Terry Scroggins are awesome. Swindle has been riding a good streak and he's fishing very well. Chapman is another that works very well in those river systems because he's consistent, and that time of year he's one of those guys I wouldn't count out either.
"You have five guys here that I would say are as good as any pick you can have and choosing one of them is tough. If it's a flipping tournament, you can't back off of Scroggins. Swindle is good all around and Alton is a proven angler and Chapman's really good on a river.
"Choosing one of them is hard when you have to eliminate guys you'd like to have. Man, I'd hate to go against Swindle or Scroggins. This is the toughest group to choose from, but from a gut feeling I tell you what I'd have to go with Brent Chapman.
B.A.S.S.: He might have some momentum from winning the Central Open last week, but why Chapman?
Grigsby: "I think all of those guys are tremendous, but I think Brent is solid in the pick'em apart type situation where you really know it's not gonna be the easiest fishing. It's gonna be a little tough and when it's tough, he's mentally tough and I think he has a little bit of an edge over the other anglers when it comes to the Red River. He's really good with cranks and flipping and pitching, he's just a good solid river fisherman and tough condition fishermen, so I have to give him the edge."
Group C
There are strong and seasoned anglers here who will definitely be in the mix at the Classic. It boasts guys like Denny Brauer, who has 20 Classic appearances and a title under his belt. Then there's Brandon Palaniuk, an up and comer, who is making this his second Classic coming off of a fourth last year. Takahiro Omori is another proven angler that knows how to get it done in the big leagues.
Another difficult selection, but Grigsby, who would you choose?
Grigsby: "Man, Denny Brauer, goodness gracious. I'm gonna take Denny Brauer in that group. The rest of those guys are tremendous and absolutely have the chance to do very well. Denny is very seasoned on the river and a very good tough condition kind of guy, won tons of tournaments and angler of the year awards. It wouldn't surprise me if Denny did very, very well there. It's hard not to choose somebody that's got such a great track record and is a proven winner."
Group D
Picking his favorite angler from this group was easy for Grigsby. The veteran is feeling confident and laughingly chose himself from the list -- he wants revenge on the river. Disappointed in his last finish on the Red River, he is looking to return and amend that disappointment.
Grigsby: "I pick me! I'm not the best, I think this is my 14th classic. I've had a second place and probably a third and some other top finishes, but knockin' one outta the park hasn't ever happened, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. That just means it's a possibility every time you hit the water to win one."
B.A.S.S.: We wouldn't expect you to show if you didn't think you could win, but why exactly did you pick yourself?
Grigsby: "I like the red river, I like the way it fishes. I may be totally lost when I get out there, but I feel real comfortable. I feel real comfortable that I'll catch them and I'll put myself in the mix.
"Last time I was there I did fair. I made the final cut and I think I finished 18th or 17th but I had a horrific first day and so to come back from that and still make the cut and finish in the top 20 was substantial for me.
"It should have been an easy top 10 finish and I'm hoping to expand upon that and be able to catch them. I think there's a distinct possibility that I'll do real well, but in any tournament I know there's a distinct possibility that I'll crash and burn too. I'll pick myself though because I think I'll make a run at it."
Group E
The final grouping has Jamie Horton and Chris Price, the only two in Group E who have ever fished the Classic. Grigsby knew little of these guys, mainly the Federation Nation bunch, but he mentioned that this is the Classic and every one of these guys deserves to be there. Having competed in his share of Classics, Grigsby knows that these guys can offer a surprise.
Grigsby: "Well, I'll tell ya, I don't know any of those guys, but I guess they're Federation and probably some Open guys in there and of course the college guy. I can tell you in past classics we have almost always had a Federation angler in the top 5 and there's always gonna be one of them that really figures it out and does well.
"Brandon Palanuik did it recently at the classic at New Orleans and he had a great run. There's just so many of those guys that are really good anglers and I look for one of those guys to do well but I just don't know which guy. I'll pick Andrew Upshaw because the first two days on the Red River fishes a lot like the Arkansas River and if he was able to pick them apart there he could do it at the classic, mainly because the Arkansas River is not much different."

Payday Loan Application Form
You have probably got word of Payday Loan Application Form, nevertheless, you aren't positive that they are right for you. These companies offer short-term loans to the people who are using a difficult time financially. Sounds great, right? It can be if you find out everything you need to know before applying first. Here are some tips to assist you with these loans.
When considering an online payday loan, although it can be tempting be sure not to borrow more than you can afford to pay back. For example, if they allow you to borrow $1000 and set your car as collateral, nevertheless, you only need $200, borrowing too much can lead to the loss of your automobile if you are struggling to repay the entire loan.
Research various payday advance companies before settling on one. There are many different companies around. Some of which can charge you serious premiums, and fees compared to other alternatives. In fact, some may have short term specials, that basically make a difference in the total cost. Do your diligence, and ensure you are getting the best deal possible.
When considering taking out a payday loan, be sure you understand the repayment method. Sometimes you may need to send the lending company a post dated make sure that they will money on the deadline. Other times, you are going to just must provide them with your bank account information, and they're going to automatically deduct your payment from your account.
Consider payday lenders with direct deposit. You'll get your dollars within a working day. This is the handiest and safe strategy for obtaining the money.
Sometimes we can all use a little help financially. If you find yourself with a financial problem, and you also don't know where to turn, you can aquire a payday loan. A payday advance is a short-term loan that you could receive quickly. There can be a bit more involved, that tips will assist you to understand further with what these loans are about.
Payday loan companies works around the laws to impose a fee the highest amount. These loans cost a certain amount (say $15 per $100 lent), which can be just interest disguised as fees. As a result, that loan can accrue around ten times a persons vision rate of the standard loan.
The best tip readily available for using pay day loans is to never have to rely on them. If you are struggling with your bills and should not make ends meet, pay day loans are not how you can get back on track. Try making a budget and saving some money so you can stay away from these types of loans.
Be aware from the deceiving rates you might be presented. It may seem to be affordable and acceptable to be charged $ 15 for each one-hundred you borrow, but it will quickly accumulate. The rates will translate to get about 390 percent in the amount borrowed. Know exactly just how much you will be forced to pay in fees and interest at the start.
If you are considering finding a payday loan, ensure that you have a want to get it repaid right away. The loan company will offer you to "help you" and extend your loan, if you cannot pay it off straight away. This extension costs which you fee, plus additional interest, so it does nothing positive for you. However, it earns the borrowed funds company a nice profit.

Sealer with to much dry spray
I just finished spraying sealer (HOK KO-Seal II) on all the separate body pieces for my Porsche 944 project in my temporary garage booth and everything felt rough with over spray. I used HOK medium reducer (75-85 deg) and my actual temperature in the booth was 84 deg so perhaps I should have used the next slower (85-95 deg) but I'm not sure if that would have helped. I used the correct mixture 4:1:1 mixture and a 1.3 needle on the HVLP, 29 psi at the gun and 10 psi at the tip. I had a total of 11 pieces placed all orotund the booth so it was hard to manage over spray direction and the air flow probably is not what it should be because the overspray just hung around longer than I would have liked. I waited a little over an hour to dry and was ready to shoot base coat (BC13.Q01 Meteor Maroon II) but thought that I should lightly tack everything first which didn't really help much. I began with the rocker panels and I could see everywhere that I used the tack rag. I did those and the sun roof and the same thing on the sun roof. I went ahead and did three coats but knew I was going to have to sand it back off but wanted to see what happened. It still showed up underneath where I tacked ( I did not apply pressure on the tack rag, just under its own weight) so I knew I messed up somewhere along the way. Should I sand those pieces down back to the sealer until smooth and then re seal and on the rest of the pieces, sand the sealer until smooth and do another coat of sealer? I just need to figure out what went wrong so it doesn't happen again.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Once I determined that I would keep the boat in a slip anyway, I went right for the O'Day 272. When the Bay picks up to 2+ feet I'm glad I did!!
22-26ft boats are just too big to trailer regularly. Opinions vary.
Most boats I know of in this range are trailered only to the lot and back to the slip twice a season after the owners realize what a PINA it is to step the mast every time they want to go out.
For me, a trailer boat must be -20ft.
Anything bigger/heavier will wind up in the slip. If it winds up in the slip, you may as well get a bigger, more comfortable boat.
That's how I wound up with a 272.
(But it took nearly three years of thinking about it to come to this conclusion)
My family had an O'Day 23 when I was growing up. We only trailered it for winter storage. We could have trailered it for weekends (instead of the slip) with a lot more work of course. My point is only that I don't think we'd have considered weekend/daysail trailering with a 25.
All that said, we really loved our 23, and cruised for as long as two weeks with a family of 4 (my brother and I were fairly young). Later we moved up to an O'Day 28 when our family started to outgrow the 23, and made trips as long as 6 weeks on that boat (Virginia Beach to Newport and back), though it sounds crazy to me now!
|If you really have to trailer that much I wouldn't consider anything over 23'. I owned one for 25 years, and getting on and off the trailer was never enjoyable (if we did it more frequently, it may have become easier--we launched in the spring and retrieved in the fall). I think it's the "Practical Sailor's Book of Used Boats" that has the remark along these lines: "the 23' O'day is a great pocket cruiser in the water, great when on the trailer, but hell in between". In my opinion, stepping the mast is not a solo experience--a minimum of 2 to avoid injury or damage. The 23' is fine for 2 people overnighting so long as you're willing to crouch down in the cabin--I'm 5'7" and adequate headroom was the #2 reason I moved up to an O'Day 27'. We have slept 3 adults and 1 child on the boat--it was helplful that everyone was very friendly and not overly modest--the head is at the head of the V-berth. But I loved the boat--25 years worth--and spent very little money maintaining it.

|thank you very much. That was very helpful. I grew up around milwaukee, and if i lived there i probally would look at a slip, however since i live about 2 hours from the nearest place to sail i will need a trailer sailer for now. Anyone know the weight of the mast on an oday??
stepping the mast

When trailering the boat, the mast will sit on the bow and stern pulpits. To step the mast you need to move the mast aft, so that the mast butt is at the mast step. I built a simple mast crutch, because the top of the mast (now moved quite a bit aft of the stern) must be elevated. With the top part of the mast resting on the crutch, it was simple to insert a pin through the mast step and base of the mast. Now you can get ready to raise the mast.
Since the mast on a Catalina 22 isn't that heavy, a STRONG person could raise the mast by hand. The side stays prevent the mast from falling over and the backstay will prevent it from falling too far forward. I raised the mast like that once or twice, but it was very difficult. An easier way was to tie a line around the forestay and connect that to the winch on the trailer, that is normally used to winch the boat back onto the trailer. With the winch on the trailer it was pretty easy to crank the mast up. When the mast was vertical you connect the forestay and disconnect the line.
You tension the forestay, the other stays and shrouds are fine. It's pretty easy to put the boom on, just clip the end of the boom to the topping lift, then put the pin through the gooseneck at the mast end. I used to leave the mainsail on the boom when the boat was trailered.
Put the outboard engine on, put the rudder on (if the ramp wasn't too steep I could leave the rudder on the boat), back down the ramp, float the boat off, pull the trailer out and you are ready to sail.
After doing it a few times I could go from arriving at the marina to motoring away from the dock in about 1 hour. Nothing was that difficult or complicated, but there is a good amount of things to do. And expect to take at least the same amount of time at the end of the day when the boat has to go back onto the trailer.
Make sure you note that as the boat gets longer, the weight of everything goes up quite a bit faster. I believe that an Oday 222 weighs 2200 lbs, and the 25 weighs 4800 lbs. The extra 3' of length doubles the weight of the boat.
For me, trailering was a real hassle, and after 1 year of doing it I got a mooring and was much happier.
Good luck,
I owned the 25. The 23, 25 & 26 were very similar in design and sailing, very capable and comfortable boats for their size.. The 22 is a older design. I would avoid that boat. The 23 would be the best pick for trailerability. The 25 is a beast to trailer, but you can. The mast is raised with the boom as a gin pole, and can be careful done by one person or done quite easily by 2.

|how difficult is it to step the mast and attach the boom? Can it be done alone? Are there winches or how are they set up?
There are some significant differences between the 22, 23 and 25, but they are a "family" of boats with many similar design features. I am less familiar with the Oday 26, but it appears to be very similar to the 25, just with a more angular appearance. All are great first boats. There are also significant differences in features of each based on model years. Check out the I Heart Odays website for lots of detail.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. – The Marist men's soccer team lost a 2-1 overtime heartbreaker on Saturday night against Fairfield. Senior Gerry Ceja (Port Chester, N.Y.) scored for the Red Foxes off an assist from junior Matty Berman (West Orange, N.J.). Senior goalkeeper Anthony Sokalski (London, Ontario) recorded eight saves in an impressive defensive effort for Marist.
Marist and Fairfield battled a physical match to a scoreless halftime. The Stags outshot the Red Foxes 6-2 and maintained a 4-1 advantage in corner kicks during the first half. Sokalski posted an outstanding performance in goal, recording five saves in which he needed to come off the line. Early in the first half, a Fairfield forward attempted a shot from the left hand side towards the upper right corner. Sokalski dove across the face of the goal, knocking the ball out of bounds to keep the game tied 0-0.
Later, with just minutes remaining until halftime, Stags' Reco McLaren dribbled into the box from the right side of the turf. Sokalski ran off his line, meeting McLaren half way, and made a one-on-one save to secure a 0-0 score at the half.
The Red Foxes controlled a majority of the possession in the second half, outshooting the Stags 7-6. Fairfield was first to get on the board at the 58:45 mark. Sokalski blocked a shot by a Stag's forward that was collected by Daniel Shaw. Shaw one touched the rebounded save into the back of the net to give Fairfield a 1-0 lead.
With 30:30 remaining in the half, freshman Tudor Brata (Baia Mare, Romania) attempted a shot from the top of the six that slammed off the crossbar and out of bounds. The score would remain in favor of Fairfield until the 87:20 mark when Ceja tied the game, 1-1. Berman received a pass around midfield and dribbled up. He passed laterally to Ceja in Stags' territory. Ceja took a touch then ripped a shot from 35 yards out, sinking perfectly into the left side of the net, forcing overtime.
Fairfield quickly brought the ball down to Marist's end of the field and earned a corner kick. Jake Zuniga took the corner and connected with Jordan Ayris near the backside of the net. Ayris headed the ball in for the 2-1 overtime victory.
Marist finished its season with an overall record of 3-15 and 2-8 in conference play.
