Cabin Heater Type and Arrangement
For some reason I've decided to winter in the Northeast (NYC) and need to get a heater installed in the next couple of months.
Does anyone have experience with what works and doesn't, especially with regard to type and mounting location on a 37'?
I have a 31 with a Force 10 Cozy Cabin LPG heater installed on the port side of the forward bulkhead. I didn't install it but I am very happy with it--it's simple to use, compact,sturdily built of brass and stainless steel and heats my 31 easily. Rated at 6000BTU and looks like they're selling for about $400. I realize there is a lot more volume to heat inside a 37 than a 31, but there's my $.02 anyway.
If you plan to be dockside for the winter, the easiest/cheapest option would be electric heaters, which have the benefit of being temporary if you won't need heat again. A downside is that they won't work during a power loss.
As far as more permanent installations, the consensus seems to be that a Webasto or Espar forced air system is among the best options for long-term live-aboard. But these are fairly pricey, require more electric power, and installation is fairly involved.
Somewhere in the spectrum between electric and forced air are the bulkhead-mounted cabin heaters (such as Okapi described) that usually run on propane or diesel/kerosene. These are nice units for weekending/vacationing. Since they are passive heaters, they have almost zero electric consumption (although it helps to run fans to circulate the heat).
We have A LOT of threads here on Sailnet that discuss diesel and propane cabin heaters -- lots of good information already there that can be found with a quick search (try search term "cabin heater"). If you decide a bulkhead mounted propane heater is what you want, be sure to understand the benefits of a sealed combustion chamber (such as those offered by Dickinson's Newport heaters). Those threads I mention discuss this issue quite a bit.
In your case, a bulkhead mounted unit might suffice for a single winter season aboard, especially if you could supplement it with an electric heater as needed.
Okapi, Thanks for the input, I have been looking at the Force10's and SigMar's for awhile now.
John, Thanks for the info. We'll be at the dock but also need a heater for full time cruising in cold environments. From a quick look on the web, the forced air heaters are going to draw 10+ amps and I think that's going to be a non-starter for us.
I'm looking into Sig Mar and Dickinson bulkhead and floor mount heaters now. I will definitely poke around other parts of the forums and see what I can find.
One of the issues with the Force 10/Sigma Cozy Cabin heater is that the combustion chamber is not sealed. This allows moisture (by-product of propane combustion) to escape into the cabin -- much like using your cooking stove/oven. For limited heating it's probably okay, but if you plan to operate the unit for long periods, you will begin to notice the dampness in the cabin (and condensate dripping from your cold, bronze portlight frames).
The Dickinson Newport heaters are more expensive than the Cozy Cabin units (by a factor of 2-3), but they have a sealed combustion chamber that exhausts all the moisture out of the cabin via a double-walled chimney (the interior flew exhausts the by-products of combustion, while the exterior flew brings air for combustion from outside the cabin and simultaneously cools/insulates the hot interior flew). This results in a nice drying heat.
Here is our Dickinson Newport propane cabin heater (not the greatest photo). It's the smaller of the two sizes offered (P9000). I would think on your boat the larger 12000 btu unit would be preferable, supplemented by a few electric heaters when dockside:
P.S. You may also want to consider some way of insulating your portlights if you are going to stay put in one place for the winter. I have seen various methods but one I liked was clear bubble wrap affixed to the exterior -- which still allowed light penteration.
Regardless of the type of heater you decide to install, your boat should be as well insulated as you can make it. In addition to having Pacific Seacraft insulate our deck and hull (down to the water line), we added 1/4" and 3/8"
closed cell foam to the inside of hull and deck surfaces that were exposed to the outside. We also put expanding foam insulation in the cavity left by the hull deck where we couldn't reach it to push a half-cylinder of closed-cell foam up to cover the wiring and seal off the hull-deck joint cavity. We glued acoustical wall covering to the inside of the V-berth where it was exposed--it's better looking than closed-cell foam. Without the insulation condensate dripped down inside lockers.
Friends who own a PSC 37 showed us how to make a clear plexiglass "curtain" that snaps onto the side of the cabin trunk, forming a fitted cover for all of the portlights at once. You can still open the portlight and let in a bit of air, but condensation is cut to almost nothing.
We have an Espar, but it had a hard time keeping up with the cold winters in Washington State and Canada until we installed the insulation. The Espar ran at least 50% less after we got all the insulation installed.
If you haven't read "The Warm Dry Boat" we recommend it. The most important thing we did (described in this book) was to be sure we had adequate air circulation. We used a combination of slightly open portlights, hatches, and cabin fans to keep the air moving. Even so, if you're at the dockside in a cold, wet climate you may find you need a dehumidifier to make life bearable. The majority of our condensation problems were caused by cooking--opening the hatch over the stove helps, but there is still a lot of moisture to get out of the boat.
Definitely look at electric heaters if you're at the dock and have dockside power. We used a Caframo floor model, but friends swore by one that heated oil in a radiator-like free-standing job.
ARGO I pass your beautiful vessel as I travel along the west side hiway. I tried to PM you but being a newbie I was not allowed . I have a sister ship #290 up the river a few miles in Nyack. Have you found your winter berth? If I can be of any help let me know. THYRA
Hi gang, we have Dickinson Newport desiel heater in our PSC 37 LL ,#231 for 18 years with prior owner and it works great here in BC , but hellish messy to clean. Cheers, Bill
i have a pc 37 , removed my heater , i have all the parts , would like to sell it .email me if you would likem to buy it thank pc 37 howard
winter heat
We do a lot of winter sailing, liveaboard life in the PNW. Have found that running 2 110 volt heaters can overrun the dock power. Trips the breaker. Still, running 2 heaters on Med. is better than one on high.
We also have an Espar forced Air Diesel heater, the combo gets us thru snow on the deck weather.
Boat was in charter out of Bellingham, WA for ten years, no problems with cold.

Easy Chocolate Fudge
Some men, for reasons I do not fully understand, insist on denouncing chocolate in all its forms. Perhaps they were once told that only women should love chocolate.

Moving Your 'Non-Movable' Android Apps to an SD Card

works like charm
does as it says works like charm, moved facebook, twitter, freesms, what's app, fring, pda net, gemini app manager, etc.which i was unable to move by move to sd program which was useful initially but the importance got lower with time. freed a lot of space.
could not move gmail ymail ymessenger touchpal keyboard, flashlight, 3g watchdog, n ofcourse maps..may be some of these apps are important & need to be in primary memory for start up, to work even when sd card is mounted & faster n better performance. but i think some of these are not compulsory and should have the option to move to sd card. sometime we can compromise with the speed/ performance rather than mis out of all cool apps.
i m using micromax ninja a50 which has just 180 mb of internal memory. now i have 45 mb free. earlier i had 20 mb free. and suprisingly my phone has speed up a lot and the difference can be felt after moving these apps to sd card. so the developers of the apps should know that they should suggest location but leave the decision to the users where they want to install/ move rather than forcing them.
hope this concept will work for me for a good time, installed all major apps and think the new apps i will install can be moved directly to sd, if not won't mind using this method to move them.
can i know which more apps i cannot move even with this method like gmail ymail ymessenger touchpal keyboard, flashlight, 3g watchdog, google maps, only

Really considered taking some PT (personal time) today to finish the sliding glass door trim and maybe put a window or two in (have had them for a while sitting in the garage).
Then i saw my bank account balance :wink:... nevermind! lol
Actually it's overcast here and with this being my first non-new construction window job i probably need a full day of no rain, just in case!
Still may go pick up some lumber to trim out the sliding door. Since it is an older home and the door is new construction, there is a gap that needs filled with wood before the trim can go up. It will be the same with the windows but i will be drywalling them in with no trim i think. (pros/cons?)
I have some PT scheduled tomorrow. Unfortunately it's physical therapy. Also need to flash my PT deck.

Andrew Clements' list of Herbert von Karajan's 10 best recordings (G2, April 9) says "not much British music made it into the Karajan repertoire". Hardly surprising considering the abysmal quality of British music since 1900, which has been in constant decline from a very modest "peak" indeed. Not for nothing is the UK known as "the land without music".

- - Who took my dog and left me with a maniac?! (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/general-behavior/436489-who-took-my-dog-left-me-maniac.html)
Who took my dog and left me with a maniac?!
Background: We adopted a 3.5 year old GSD about 2 months ago and he's been a dream (albeit a little emotionally needy and dog aggressive at times). I know it takes dogs a while to let their true personality out after being adopted, but this is getting out of control.
This past Saturday he ate 6-8" of his harness including the plastic clip for which we had to go to the emergency vet to induce vomitting. Since then he's gotten into the garbage 3 days in a row (both bathroom and kitchen) which has taught us to never leave him alone with access to those things, and tonight he ate a whole bag of chicken thighs we had defrosting on the counter. 12 of them!As well as a large pile of napkins he threw everywhere.
We exercise him daily, try to take him to different parks and such to let him run around and we try to mentally stimulate him with training and games.
Do we return to crating him while we are away? Forever? Is there anything else we can do while we are with him to help get him back on track?
Please help! Any advice appreciated. I'm sure we've somehow contributed to his negative behavior, and I'd like to know what we can do to make everyone happier.
He needs to be crated when you're not home to monitor him. For his safety and your sanity.
Some folks will be along with more direct advice. Maybe NILIF would help. I had to keep my rescue crated for a couple of years when I wasn't home. Got him as an adult rescue too.
A good trainer, one that works with GSDs may help you work through these and the other issues more efficiently.
254 Attachment(s)
Agree with Gwenhwyfair.. crate training should really be something to reinstate. And yes.. maybe forever.. but it isn't a punishment, it's for the safety of him and your home.
Also a trainer, a good trainer..

Miss Mary CynModel Female Woodside, New York, US
My MM URL: http://www.modelmayhem.com/marycyn
Mayhem # 1058789
About Me
I'm a burlesque performer/artist/writer/actor/whathaveyou. I started modeling when I was about 10. My father was a portrait photographer and used photos of me to promote his work.
Since then I've modeled for artists and photographers, sometimes for money, sometime for art, usually for promotional materials for my shows or art.
I'm very professional and easy to work with. I take direction well and don't have a problem holding a pose that feels uncomfortable/unnatural in order to get the right shot. My work as a performer has taught me a lot about hair styling and make up so I can do my own but I'm also very easy going and co-operative with stylists. It's your art so as long as you like the look, I'm happy to go with it. I also have an extensive wardrobe and am happy to give creative input if you want it (but only if you want it.)
I already know and work with a good amount of photographers and I'm very busy so I'm not really interested in unpaid work at this time. I'm mostly interested in print but will also model for drawing/painting and some video. I'm willing to do fetish and art nude shoots but am very selective about who I work with and what I do.
If you'd like to work with me send a message describing the shoot, where it will take place, how long you expect it to be, what the shoot is for (portfolio, book, website, paid website, etc) if costumes/hairstyle/makeup will be provided and what compensation you're offering.
I'm willing to travel if adequately compensated but be warned that I don't drive. I most often visit the DC/Baltimore area and have relatively good access to transportation when there so it's pretty easy to book me in that area.

Outback Outlook hits AGFAIR
05/05/2014 , 11:29 AM by Sarah McConnell
Broken Hill has traditionally been perceived as a mining town, yet for more than a century, it has been an important regional support centre for the pastoral industry.
Conceived in 1989, the first Agfair was held in May 1990 and has been set out to cater specifically for graziers and the support from the Pastoralists Association of West Darling has been never ending.
Outback Outlook was broadcasting LIVE from the 2014 event, click on the links below to hear interviews from the day.

production in the renowned mills of Turkey
Turkey enjoys an amazing worldwide reputation in the textile industry. That's why we chose to have our slings manufactured there under carefully supervised conditions. The social and environmental working conditions in our mills is just as important to us as the careful selection of raw materials and their processing. Our cotton seeds are 100% organic. The plants are fertilized organically and without the use of herbicides or pesticides. Pests are treated with natural solutions and repellents. When the cotton is ready, it is carefully harvested by hand. The cotton is processed into high-quality yarn, our raw material for our woven wraps.
Next comes the color. The yarn is dyed in the desired color, free from heavy metals and toxic substances such as formaldehyde. This means that our slings are particularly kind to the skin, and saliva and sweat resistant. We comply with the guidelines of the Global Organic Textile Standards, GOTS.
Through a complex weave called the Jaquard technique, beautiful patterns are woven into the slings. This is accomplished using the specially designed Jaquard weave chair. The wrap is diagonally elastic and thus adapts perfectly to the back of the baby. The Jaquard technique of weaving means that when it comes to design potential, imagination has almost no limit.
The fabric is then finished and subsequently heated mechanically. This has two advantages: due to the heating, the wrap is beautifully soft and cuddly and it is also less likely to shrink during washing. Next, the fabric is woven and cut to the appropriate length. Each Kokadi sling has double-fringed selvage (a self-finished edge) to provide extra stability when worn. The center is marked on each wrap with a top and bottom kokadi label. The width is 70 cm (≈ 27.5 in). This provides a secure carry even for older children. The long sides end in diagonal slants. This helps in knot tying. Your kokadi wrap can support a weight of approximately 100 kg (≈ 220 lbs).
Each woven wrap undergoes a careful quality control before delivery.
bonded weave
The bonded weave is a brand new weave on the woven wrap market. This was specially developed by the kokadi. What makes it special? Overlapping fabrics. The special advantage to the bonded weave is that the woven layers are only connected to one another at the points where the patterns comes together. This means that the colors of the pattern are uniquely clear and beautiful, and (as an extra bonus) it allows us to make our wraps much thinner before. Wraps woven in this style are incredibly firm, but still soft and cuddly, perfect for carrying larger children as well as infants. The fabric is diagonal flexible and well suited for wrapping beginners because the two layers balance out any unevenness that may happen during the wrapping process.
avant garde weave
The kokadi avant garde line represents a new type of sling design: striking and exceptionally unique, these wraps embellish mamas and papas because the avant garde designs are pure fashion! Because of the fine woven structure, they offer the security and coziness for your child that you've come to expect from kokadi. The wraps are thin, but incredibly grippy and stable, and still soft and very easy to wrap with. Bigger kids and newborns are equally comfortable and safe in them.
classic weave
The jacquard weave is our classic weaving style. It is a special weaving procedure in which two different colors are used to weave patterns into the fabric. Because of this process you can see the pattern of the weave on both sides of the wrap in opposite colors. These wraps are soft and cuddly. This is a well proven weave that highlights our stylish patterns.
Cotton is a plant and belongs to the genus of the mallow family. It is a natural fiber. The hair of the cotton fiber is obtained from the seed and then spun into threads and yarns. Our cotton is organic and hand-picked.
Cannabis belongs to the genus of the hemp family. It is a natural fiber. Our hemp fibers are made from industrial hemp. They are extremely resistant to tearing. The fibers are then spun into yarns. Hemp is typically more durable than cotton.
Linen comes from thread made from fibers of the flax plant. Through a complex process, the fibers are first dried, crushed, swung, heckled and cleaned. The resulting long fibers are spun into high-quality threads. Linen has a very smooth, shiny surface. Since there is almost no air trapped between the fibers, pilling is minor. It is less susceptible to collect dirt and bacteria, and due to its air balancing feature, has a cooling effect in the summer.
Cashmere is a very soft and fine natural fiber. This is derived from the undercoat of the cashmere goat. It is one of the most valuable and most expensive natural fibers. Cashmere is very warm and light. The fibers are spun into fine yarns.
Silk is a very fine natural animal fiber. It is derived from the cocoon of the silkworm. These threads, spun while cocooning, are unspun and then several threads are twisted together. This thread is now processed into a smooth textile surface. Silk is highly tear resistant and acts as insulation against the cold as well as the heat.


text: DENVER, March 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- EARTHSTONE ENERGY, INC. (Nasdaq: ESTE) supplied an update of its recent North Dakota activity. During the past year the Company has participated in eight new horizontal wells in three distinct areas of North Dakota; the Banks Field, the Mondak Field and Indian Hill Field. Banks Field, McKenzie County In the Banks area, the Company participated in four wells; all of which were operated by Zenergy, Inc; a private company headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Pederson #10-3H was drilled in April 2010 and is now both producing and no longer on confidential status. The well had an initial potential of 522 barrels of oil per day and has cumulative production of approximately 65,000 barrels of oil, 109,000 MCF of gas and 35,000 barrels of water. In February 2011, the well was re-entered to clean debris out the horizontal lateral of the well. Following this work, the well is producing approximately 350 barrels of oil per day. Earthstone has a 2.4 % working interest in this well. The Ceynar 29-32H was drilled in November 2010. Efforts to complete and hydraulically stimulate the well were hampered by harsh winter conditions. As a result, the well has just recently been placed on production. The well is still on confidential status and an initial production rate has not been released by the Operator. However, the Company estimates that the well will have an initial potential of approximately 1,000 barrels of oil per day. Earthstone has a 0.132 % working interest in this well. The A. Johnson 12-1H and the Berquist 33-28H are currently being drilled. Earthstone has a 0.084 % and 0.18% working interest in these wells, respectively. Both wells are expected to be on production by late May.

383 SBC in Dodge Dart?
Hey, guys, anybody have any information AT ALL about putting a 383 SBC stroker in a 74 Dodge Dart Sport (looks like a Duster)? First hand knowledge or maybe a website would be great. I am not too sure about how to go about it. I would use a TH 350 tranny and a 9" rearend.
I have one of each and think this would be an economical way to go fast.
This would be a strip only car.
Please, also let me know if this is not a good idea and why. and I don't mean because it will hack off the Mopar guys.
Go to this site www.bigblockdart.com
Thanks for the info. What I am really searching for is information on installing a 383 small block chevy in the dart.
Can anybody help? Please.
I have never seen anyone put a SBC in a duster but it shouldn't be to hard.The SBD engine was patterned after the SBC and shares a lot of the same design basics.put a SBC and SBD side by side and you'll see what I mean.
The only problem I can see is making a set of headers.
I assume you know you'll have to make motor and trany mounts and some minimum work on the wiring.
As for headers I'd take a set of SBD headers that fit the car and change the head flange so it will fit a SBC.It'll take some tweeking to get the headers to mate to the chevy engine and still fit the chassis,but should be easier than making new from scratch.
As for the rear end just use an A-body 8.75 dodge rear end .It will handle over 500 hp with no problem.
And best of all,you get to annoy every mopar nut you meet especially if your car is quicker
gotta love that
You know, at heart I am a Mopar nut but economics made me realize that the SBC is more up my alley and I like to do things different if I can.
My biggest problem is that this is my first strip only (race) car.
I already have a 383 ready to go that is in a 79 GMC shortbed. I believe it will make 450 HP and that is a pretty conservative estimate. Or at least I think it is conservative but have no hard evidence to back it up.
Question #1 Motor and tranny mounts- It appears to me that a front mounting plate along with the tranny mount would be my best option. Does this sound logical? Do I also need a mid mounting plate?
Question #2 Is my main consideration in mounting the motor/tranny simply that the crank centerline be the same, or close to the same, as the original 318?
Question #3 Is it feasible to fabricate a top shock mount tower and just use a fiberglass front end? This should open up some header fabrication options and shave quite a bit of weight off the car.
I don't intend to run an alternator so wiring should be limited to the ignition, starter, water pump, fan, fuel pump and guages, right?
Thanks again for any help you more experienced rodders can give this newbie!
You can go with a motor plate if you want or make steel mounts or use 70's and newer style stock mounts on some sort of adapter to fit the frame.
crank centerline shouldn't matter to much but the relationship between trany output C/L and pinion angle should be Kept as close as possible to avoid driveshaft harmonics and premature U-joint failure.
if you want to cut the inner fenders out then make absolutly sure the stock frame is in perfect condition or you'll have to fab up a whole new front frame to support the weight.then make a 1 3/4 tube to fit from the firewall over the top of the shock and curve down to the front of the frame just behind the rad support to support the upper end of the shock
as for the alternator, thats your choice but lots of people in my area have gone back to using them just to save a lot of hassle in the pits of always having to charge the battery between rounds.
hope this helps,good luck

Another 15,000 will go over the next two years. Mark Serwotka, PCS general secretary, said: "This vote sends out a clear message that our members will not sit back and allow the services that they deliver and care about to be damaged beyond repair." He said job cuts had led to two-month waits for benefits and a million calls unanswered.
Some 90,000 civil servants employed in the Child Support Agency and benefits offices have voted for a two-day strike over job cuts. Members of the Public and Commercial Services Union voted six to four in favour after the culling of 15,000 jobs.

looking at a 92
I'm looking at getting a 92, with 91K miles on it. My pole vault coach who's brother messes around with jeeps said "say away form the ones with square head lights" Now i was wondering why that was? I mean, what are the reasons for me not to get a 1987-1995?
Some people just don't like the square lights. There is nothing wrong with them compared to other jeeps.
Some jeepers think the square headlights are the bastard child of jeep, as all other jeeps have circle headlights which gives the more typical jeep look.
He might have said that because the suspension is a bit more rough, being all leaf suspension all around, instead of the newer TJ's with the coil suspension. The dashboards arent as "nice" as the newer jeeps, they have an old look and feel to them.
I guess it all depends on what you're going to use your jeep for? I can give you more advise based on what your uses will be as i am also looking to buy a YJ.
Can't go wrong with a jeep, from a flattie to a JK you'll be welcome anywhere you go.
I like the square light jeeps because they are sort of a cross-roads old meets new phase for jeep. To me they are like a cool jeep counterculture. Simple to work on and parts are cheap too.
Im just looking for a DD and something that can easily go over curbs. i mean im not set one thing or an other..If that makes since
Yeah i feel the same, I'm wanting a DD and maybe a bit of offroad. I go places on the freeway once in a while and need to go at least 70 without stressing anything.
I decided to go with a 4.0L I6, which means 1991 - 1995, as the 87-90's had a 4.2L I6 carbureted, producing less HP, but had more usable torque because it came at lower RPMs.
I also wanted a family roll cage because I have an 18 month old and the wife wants shoulder belts in the rear, so that means 92-95 (unless i modify a 91). (This wont be the primary vehicle for transporting my son though)
I also want a manual because they're more fun to drive :)
Sounds like a 91-95 would be best for you, as you probably want fuel injected, and as a DD you might be taking it on the freeway too, I've read time and time again the 4 cylinders dont have the power to really work well on a freeway and stress the motor more (higher RPMs).
Hope this helps some!
Curious too, what are the specs of the one you're lookin at? how much are they asking and do you have pics?
They want like $3200 for the jeep and its got 91K miles on it, its base model, nothing modded.. Has a little rust on the tailgate and front finder, and it need the turn signal switch replaced and the oil gauge replaced..
Also i really like the insides of the TJ so is there anyway to get a YJ front end (like the lights and stuff) on a TJ? haha stupid idea i know, but i like the square headlights much better!
The earlier YJs had some weaker parts sourced from Peugeot (AMC was owned by Renault; same parent company back then). Mostly the transfer case and transmissions. Not certain if that includes a 1992. One of the YJ experts will know.
From a collectibility standpoint, the YJ used to be the red-headed stepchild of the Jeep world, but that's changed a LOT in the past ten years or so. They are now very popular, and prices are holding steady. A 92 you buy now and enjoy for a few years should sell for about the same as you bought it for.
Putting a YJ front end on a TJ is a, um, dumb idea. It would devalue it. But it sure says a lot about how square headlights are gaining in popularity!
(dumb from a value perspective. I support the idea of "your jeep, your money, your dreams!")
I have a 1994 YJ and I love it. I've had it for about a year with no problems. Mine has the 4.0 and manual transmission. Those were must haves for me, along with the hard top. I didn't want square headlights at first, but now I like the fact that my Jeep has that extra difference from most of the other Jeeps.
I think the square headlights look tougher.
I have the manual Peugeot trans on my 89 carbed i6 with 203,000 miles on it. One clutch change in that time. I don't do any serious Off-roading and I use it as my DD. I can hit 85mph on the Highway, if I want to. Tires are 30's.
Manual will get you better gas mileage and more power in general. You you do a lot of Highway especially with toll booths, I would aim for the i6 in Carb or Fuel injected. the 2.5 IMO is a bit of a slug off the line, which make make you push it and actually get worse gas mileage.
Edit: Does anyone have one of these cargo nets?
So I don't know what happened to my link of the jeep I was looking at but here's it again..
Jeep : Wrangler - eBay (item 120695646200 end time Mar-16-11 06:09:56 PDT)
Well I'm off to math class so everyone have a great day! :wavey:
Okay so i am going to look at that jeep tomorrow at 10:30 wish me luck! :thumb::D
Have fun.
Don't fall in love. Yet. Be critical. There are always more Jeeps to look at.
I just talked to a guy who looked at 30+ Landcruisers before he found the perfect one. I think that's a bit extreme, but you get the point.
I agree with Geoff. I bought the first one I looked at and got screwed. Looked at about 20 this time and have the nicest jeep I've ever been in.
Hey good luck man!! Have fun and be absolutely sure to tap and pick at the frame wherever you can lol. Make sure there's no rot. :)
Yep it wasn't meant to be luckly I emailed him right before I left on the 3 hour drive,, he said he forgot to tell me but he sold it to a dealership the other night. I mean what a douche bag. Haha
I agree look around and be sure to check the frame. I looked at 7 before I bought the 94 in the link below. Most of the others had frame problems. Mine has an I6 with a 5 speed. I thought it had enough power and I was getting 18 MPG. I also like the square head lights.

Multidisciplinary Culture Hacks Use Tech And Design To Solve Local Problems
Culture Shift brings together creative businesses and digital talent to make new products.
Culture Shift is a global hack program by the British Council's Creative and Cultural Economy team.
The program is basically a season of sessions that bring together people from the creative, cultural and digital industries to collaborate and design new products and ideas that address existing challenges related to the cultural sector in their local communities.
The participants in each Culture Shift program are grouped into teams who then compete for a grant award and medium-term business mentoring support to bring their projects to life in the real world. The hack sessions last for 48 hours and the teams present their projects, including a prototype of their product, to a panel of judges.
For the last couple of years, the British Council has been running the Culture Shift program globally in places like Kenya, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Lagos, Russia, Brazil, and Lagos. The program has been supported by organizations such as the UK's Social Innovation Camp, Snook, CultureCode, CultureTECH, Technology Will Save Us, Pervasive Media Studio, KIMCHI and CHIPS, as well as Google partners iHub Kenya and CcHub Nigeria, and the Hub Johannesburg.
The program was piloted in Egypt, South Africa, Kenya, and Nigeria between March and May 2012. The global hack program officially launched with Culture Shift Nigeria in November and December 2012. In 2013, Culture Shift was taken to Kenya, Zimbabwe and South Africa.
Some of the projects and prototypes that came out of the Culture Shift sessions include Pakacha in Kenya, a digital platform that allows artists to use a "barter and sell" system to look for and purchase art supplies. Culture Shift Kenya also resulted to the Rubiani project, a mobile application that connects buyers directly with the makers of locally handcrafted good. In 2013, the Kijicho project, a social interactive platform for matatu – public minibus taxi – users, won first place.
Other Culture Shift projects include Nigeria's Mainframe Films, a group developing a global movies app that promotes African film identity, and PubHub, a self-publishing literature vending machine that aims to make literature accessible and affordable in South Africa, and Meshabbek in Egypt, a platform that helps creative people find the talent and skills for their projects.

Some Pommeau de Normandie!
Calvados is an apple and pear brandy produced in the French region of Lower Normandy. Often regarded as the world's premier style of apple brandy, calvados is one of the few forms of brandy to be granted AOC status in France, alongside cognac and armagnac. Calvados is a spirit that has aroma, flavour and body closer to the complexities of grape brandy rather than a fruit eau-de-vie. AOC calvados production is split into three separate appellations. AOC Pays d'Auge is highly regarded and produced from apples alone; AOC Domfrontais is produced using at least 30% pears; AOC Calvados covers the largest region and produces the majority of calvados from either apples or pears.
Fermenting apples and pears to produce cider arguably dates back to before the 7th century. In the 8th century the hand press was invented, allowing the apples and pears which were being grown in abundance in Normandy to be pressed for their juices effectively. It is at this time that cider production and the first stages of calvados production became widespread. The first known distillation was carried out by Lord de Gouberville in the 1500s.
The name Calvados supposedly originates from a ship that belonged to the Spanish Armada, El Salvador, which was sunk in 1588 off the coast of Normandy. During the French revolution this name was given to the area and in turn was passed on to the area's local 'eau-de-vie-de-cidre'.
Calvados as a region was recognized in 1942 and awarded AOC status in 1984, with the calvados aperitif 'pommeau' being awarded status in 1991, and finally the pear dominant calvados Domfront appellation in 1997.
Normandy, in the Northwest of France, is the home of calvados. Normandy may be too cold for grapes, but is noted for its superb apple and pear orchards. French AOC regulations act to control the regions and methods of calvados production. There are three appellations of calvados.
Covering the greatest geographically defined area, the AOC calvados appellation accounts for over 70% of total calvados production. Regulations limit the use of apples and pears to defined cider varieties. Also regulated are procedures regarding the pressing of freshly harvested fruit, fermentation, distillation and ageing. Distillation typically takes place in a single column still, ageing is for a minimum period of two years in oak casks.
Reflecting the long tradition of pear orchards in the area, a minimum of 30% of pears from the designated areas must be used in AOC Calvados Domfrontais. Cider is typically distilled in a single column still, followed by a requisite ageing for a minimum of three years in oak casks.
Limited to the use of apples from a designated area, AOC Calvados Pays d'Auge undergoes extensive quality control; more than other appellations of AOC calvados. Cider must be fermented for a minimum of six weeks, double distilled in a Charentais pot still, followed by ageing for a minimum of two years in oak casks.
To make one litre of calvados as 100% pure alcohol, around 27 kg of apples or 20 litres of cider are necessary.
There are 46 varieties of apples permitted for use in calvados, divided into five categories:
- Bitter apples - rich in tannin, they give the body of the cider
- Sweet apples - weak in tannin, their sugar guarantees the alcohol content
- Acid apples - they give the juice its coolness
- Sour apples - they bring some useful tannin
- Sweet and bitter apples - they stabilize the alcohol content of the cider
Each producer selects a different mixture of apples to express the distinctive characteristics of the final product.
Pears used in production must abide by a list of approved varieties specified to meet AOC restrictions.
Once harvested, fruit will be pressed, often by hand, and placed in vats to allow natural yeasts to start fermentation of the fruit into cider. The fermentation process may take up to six weeks to reach the alcohol content required for distillation (4.5% ABV).
Distillation takes place between the beginning of the winter and June 30th of the following year. The method of distillation depends primarily on the AOC appellation.
Calvados AOC Pays d'Auge is double distilled very slowly in a Charentais pot still. The first distillation produces liquid called 'petites eaux' or 'brouillis' at 28% ABV. This liquid undergoes a second distillation which produces an austere and colourless spirit with a calvados taste at around 72% ABV. This distillation method produces a richer more viscous spirit that will suit longer periods of ageing.
Calvados AOC and AOC Domfrontais may be double distilled, similarly to AOC Pays d'Auge, but may also be distilled once only in a column still. This distillation method produces a lighter spirit with fresh clean apple and pear flavours but with less complexity.
Ageing generally follows standard French brandy practice: a short period in new oak casks to build structure followed by a longer period in used oak casks for slow maturation. Calvados ages better in a slightly damp cellar where the subtle exchanges between wood, air and alcohol give calvados its smooth flavour and bouquet.
Fine or '3 stars' – Aged at least two years in oak casks
Vieux or Reserve – Aged at least three years in oak casks
VO, VSOP or Vieille Reserve – Aged at least four years in oak casks
XO, Extra or Hors d'Age or Napoleon - Aged at least six years in oak casks but often much older
Vintage – Produced from a single year. Generally high quality calvados that is aged for a longer period of time.
Calvados is a spirit that concentrates the sweetness and acidity of apples with spicy vanilla notes of oak. Calvados produced from pears generally has an overall fruitier flavour. Young calvados will be full of fresh apple and pear flavours and aromas. Aged calvados increasingly takes on the flavours introduced by the wood, such as dried apricots, butterscotch, nuts and cacao, making it more closely resemble other aged brandies.
Young calvados will suit being mixed as a long drink or in a variety of cocktails. Aged calvados is best appreciated drunk straight at room temperature, as you would a quality cognac or armagnac.

"The trilogy is trying to tell something about the parts of war that don't get into the official accounts" –Pat Barker
The first book of the Regeneration Trilogy and a Booker Prize nominee
In 1917 Siegfried Sasson, noted poet and decorated war hero, publicly refused to continue serving as a British officer in World War I. His reason: the war was a senseless slaughter. He was officially classified "mentally unsound" and sent to Craiglockhart War Hospital. There a brilliant psychiatrist, Dr. William Rivers, set about restoring Sassoon's "sanity" and sending him back to the trenches. This novel tells what happened as only a novel can. It is a war saga in which not a shot is fired. It is a story of a battle for a man's mind in which only the reader can decide who is the victor, who the vanquished, and who the victim.
One of the most amazing feats of fiction of our time, Regneration has been hailed by critics across the globe. As August 2014 marks the 100-year anniversary of World War I, this book is as timely and relevant as ever.
Editorial Reviews
"Earns... a place on the shelf of WWI literature."—Kirkus
"Extremely accomplished and intelligent... Barker is adept at dramatizing moral dilemmas that have no easy answers."—Entertainment Weekly
"One of the most deserving winners of the prestigious Booker fiction prize in recent years."—The New York Review of Books

Part 1
Finished with the War A Soldier's Declaration
I am making this statement as an act of wilful defiance of military authority, because I believe the war is being deliberately prolonged by those who have the power to end it.
I am a soldier, convinced that I am acting on behalf of soldiers. I believe that this war, upon which I entered as a war of defence and liberation, has now become a war of aggression and conquest. I believe that the purposes for which I and my fellow soldiers entered upon this war should have been so clearly stated as to have made it impossible to change them, and that, had this been done, the objects which actuated us would now be attainable by negotiation.
I have seen and endured the suffering of the troops, and I can no longer be a party to prolong these sufferings for ends which I believe to be evil and unjust.
I am not protesting against the conduct of the war, but against the political errors and insincerities for which the fighting men are being sacrificed.
On behalf of those who are suffering now I make this protest against the deception which is being practised on them; also I believe that I may help to destroy the callous complacence with which the majority of those at home regard the continuance of agonies which they do not share, and which they have not sufficient imagination to realize.
S. Sassoon
July 1917
Bryce waited for Rivers to finish reading before he spoke again. 'The "S" stands for "Siegfried". Apparently, he thought that was better left out.'
'And I'm sure he was right.' Rivers folded the paper and ran his fingertips along the edge. 'So they're sending him here?'
Bryce smiled. 'Oh, I think it's rather more specific than that. They're sending him to you.'
Rivers got up and walked across to the window. It was a fine day, and many of the patients were in the hospital grounds, watching a game of tennis. He heard the pok-pok of rackets, and a cry of frustration as a ball smashed into the net. 'I suppose he is — "shell-shocked"?'
'According to the Board, yes.'
'It just occurs to me that a diagnosis of neurasthenia might not be inconvenient confronted with this.' He held up the Declaration.
'Colonel Langdon chaired the Board. He certainly seems to think he is.'
'Langdon doesn't believe in shell-shock.'
Bryce shrugged. 'Perhaps Sassoon was gibbering all over the floor.'
"'Funk, old boy." I know Langdon.' Rivers came back to his chair and sat down. 'He doesn't sound as if he's gibbering, does he?'
Bryce said carefully, 'Does it matter what his mental state is? Surely it's better for him to be here than in prison?'
'Better for him, perhaps. What about the hospital? Can you imagine what our dear Director of Medical Services is going to say, when he finds out we're sheltering "conchies" as well as cowards, shirkers, scrimshankers and degenerates? We'll just have to hope there's no publicity.'
'There's going to be, I'm afraid. The Declaration's going to be read out in the House of Commons next week.'
Rivers made a dismissive gesture.
'Yes, well, I know. But it still means the press.'
'And the minister will say that no disciplinary action has been taken, because Mr Sassoon is suffering from a severe mental breakdown, and therefore not responsible for his actions. I'm not sure I'd prefer that to prison.'
'I don't suppose he was offered the choice. Will you take him?'
'You mean I am being offered a choice?'
'In view of your case load, yes.'
Rivers took off his glasses and swept his hand down across his eyes. 'I suppose they have remembered to send the file?'
Sassoon leant out of the carriage window, still half-expecting to see Graves come pounding along the platform, looking even more dishevelled than usual. But further down the train, doors had already begun to slam, and the platform remained empty.
The whistle blew. Immediately, he saw lines of men with grey muttering faces clambering up the ladders to face the guns. He blinked them away.
The train began to move. Too late for Robert now. Prisoner arrives without escort, Sassoon thought, sliding open the carriage door.
By arriving an hour early he'd managed to get a window seat. He began picking his way across to it through the tangle of feet. An elderly vicar, two middle-aged men, both looking as if they'd done rather well out of the war, a young girl and an older woman, obviously travelling together. The train bumped over a point. Everybody rocked and swayed, and Sassoon, stumbling, almost fell into the vicar's lap. He mumbled an apology and sat down. Admiring glances, and not only from the women. Sassoon turned to look out of the window, hunching his shoulder against them all.
After a while he stopped pretending to look at the smoking chimneys of Liverpool's back streets and closed his eyes. He needed to sleep, but instead Robert's face floated in front of him, white and twitching as it had been last Sunday, almost a week ago now, in the lounge of the Exchange Hotel.
For a moment, looking up to find that khaki-clad figure standing just inside the door, he thought he was hallucinating again.
'Robert, what on earth are you doing here?' He jumped up and ran across the lounge. 'Thank God you've come.'
'I got myself passed fit.'
'Robert, no.'
'What else could I do? After getting this.' Graves dug into his tunic pocket and produced a crumpled piece of paper. 'A covering letter would have been nice.'
'I wrote.'
'No, you didn't, Sass. You just sent me this. Couldn't you at least have talked about it first?'
'I thought I'd written.'
They sat down, facing each other across a small table. Cold northern light streamed in through the high windows, draining Graves's face of the little colour it had.
'Sass, you've got to give this up.'
'Give it up? You don't think I've come this far, do you, just to give in now?'
'Look, you've made your protest. For what it's worth, I agree with every word of it. But you've had your say. There's no point making a martyr of yourself.'
'The only way I can get publicity is to make them court-martial me.'
'They won't do it.'
'Oh, yes, they will. It's just a matter of hanging on.'
'You're in no state to stand a court-martial.' Graves clasped his clenched fist. 'If I had Russell here now, I'd shoot him.'
'It was my idea.'
'Oh, pull the other one. And even if it was, do you think anybody's going to understand it? They'll just say you've got cold feet.'
'Look, Robert, you think exactly as I do about the war, and you do ... nothing. All right, that's your choice. But don't come here lecturing me about cold feet. This is the hardest thing I've ever done.'
Now, on the train going to Craiglockhart, it still seemed the hardest thing. He shifted in his seat and sighed, looking out over fields of wheat bending to the wind. He remembered the silvery sound of shaken wheat, the shimmer of light on the stalks. He'd have given anything to be out there, away from the stuffiness of the carriage, the itch and constriction of his uniform.
On that Sunday they'd taken the train to Formby and spent the afternoon wandering aimlessly along the beach. A dull, wintry-looking sun cast their shadows far behind them, so that every gesture either of them made was mimicked and magnified.
'They won't let you make a martyr of yourself, Sass. You should have accepted the Board.'
The discussion had become repetitive. For perhaps the fourth time, Sassoon said, 'If I hold out long enough, there's nothing else they can do.'
'There's a lot they can do.' Graves seemed to come to a decision. 'As a matter of fact, I've been pulling a few strings on your behalf.'
Sassoon smiled to hide his anger. 'Good. If you've been exercising your usual tact, that ought to get me at least two years.'
'They won't court-martial you.'
In spite of himself, Sassoon began to feel afraid. 'What, then?'
'Shut you up in a lunatic asylum for the rest of the war.'
'And that's the result of your string-pulling, is it? Thanks.'
'No, the result of my string-pulling is to get you another Board. You must take it this time.'
'You can't put people in lunatic asylums just like that. You have to have reasons.'
'They've got reasons.'
'Yes, the Declaration. Well, that doesn't prove me insane.'
'And the hallucinations? The corpses in Piccadilly?'
A long silence. 'I had rather hoped my letters to you were private.'
'I had to persuade them to give you another Board.'
'They won't court-martial me?'
'No. Not in any circumstances. And if you go on refusing to be boarded, they will put you away.'
'You know, Robert, I wouldn't believe this from anybody else. Will you swear it's true?'
'On the Bible?'
Graves held up an imaginary Bible and raised his right hand. 'I swear.'
Their shadows stretched out behind them, black on the white sand. For a moment Sassoon still hesitated. Then, with an odd little gasp, he said, 'All right then, I'll give way.'
In the taxi, going to Craiglockhart, Sassoon began to feel frightened. He looked out of the window at the crowded pavements of Princes Street, thinking he was seeing them for the first and last time. He couldn't imagine what awaited him at Craiglockhart, but he didn't for a moment suppose the inmates were let out.
He glanced up and found the taxi-driver watching him in the mirror. All the local people must know the name of the hospital, and what it was for. Sassoon's hand went up to his chest and began pulling at a loose thread where his MC ribbon had been.
For conspicuous gallantry during a raid on the enemy's trenches. He remained for 1 hours under rifle and bomb fire collecting and bringing in our wounded. Owing to his courage and determination, all the killed and wounded were brought in.
Reading the citation, it seemed to Rivers more extraordinary than ever that Sassoon should have thrown the medal away. Even the most extreme pacifist could hardly be ashamed of a medal awarded for saving life. He took his glasses off and rubbed his eyes. He'd been working on the file for over an hour, but, although he was now confident he knew all the facts, he was no closer to an understanding of Sassoon's state of mind. If anything, Graves's evidence to the Board - with its emphasis on hallucinations - seemed to suggest a full-blown psychosis rather than neurasthenia. And yet there was no other evidence for that. Misguided the Declaration might well be, but it was not deluded, illogical or incoherent. Only the throwing away of the medal still struck him as odd. That surely had been the action of a man at the end of his tether.
Well, we've all been there, he thought. The trouble was, he was finding it difficult to examine the evidence impartially. He wanted Sassoon to be ill. Admitting this made him pause. He got up and began pacing the floor of his room, from door to window and back again. He'd only ever encountered one similar case, a man who'd refused to go on fighting on religious grounds. Atrocities took place on both sides, he'd said. There was nothing to choose between the British and the Germans.
The case had given rise to heated discussions in the MO's common room — about the freedom of the individual conscience in wartime, and the role of the army psychiatrist in 'treating' a man who refused to fight. Rivers, listening to those arguments, had been left in no doubt of the depth and seriousness of the divisions. The controversy had died down only when the patient proved to be psychotic. That was the crux of the matter. A man like Sassoon would always be trouble, but he'd be a lot less trouble if he were ill.
Rivers was roused from these thoughts by the crunch of tyres on gravel. He reached the window in time to see a taxi draw up, and a man, who from his uniform could only be Sassoon, get out. After paying the driver, Sassoon stood for a moment, looking up at the building. Nobody arriving at Craiglockhart for the first time could fail to be daunted by the sheer gloomy, cavernous bulk of the place. Sassoon lingered on the drive for a full minute after the taxi had driven away, then took a deep breath, squared his shoulders, and ran up the steps.
Rivers turned away from the window, feeling almost ashamed of having witnessed that small, private victory over fear.
Light from the window behind Rivers's desk fell directly on to Sassoon's face. Pale skin, purple shadows under the eyes. Apart from that, no obvious signs of nervous disorder. No twitches, jerks, blinks, no repeated ducking to avoid a long-exploded shell. His hands, doing complicated things with cup, saucer, plate, sandwiches, cake, sugar tongs and spoon, were perfectly steady. Rivers raised his own cup to his lips and smiled. One of the nice things about serving afternoon tea to newly arrived patients was that it made so many neurological tests redundant.
So far he hadn't looked at Rivers. He sat with his head slightly averted, a posture that could easily have been taken for arrogance, though Rivers was more inclined to suspect shyness. The voice was slightly slurred, the flow of words sometimes hesitant, sometimes rushed. A disguised stammer, perhaps, but a life-long stammer, Rivers thought, not the recent, self-conscious stammer of the neurasthenic.
'While I remember, Captain Graves rang to say he'll be along some time after dinner. He sent his apologies for missing the train.'
'He is still coming?'
Sassoon looked relieved. 'Do you know, I don't think Graves's caught a train in his life? Unless somebody was there to put him on it.'
'We were rather concerned about you.'
'In case the lunatic went missing?'
'I wouldn't put it quite like that.'
'I was all right. I wasn't even surprised, I thought he'd slept in. He's been doing a ... a lot of rushing round on my behalf recently. You've no idea how much work goes into rigging a Medical Board.'
Rivers pushed his spectacles up on to his forehead and massaged the inner corners of his eyes. 'No, I don't suppose I have. You know this may sound naive but ... to me ... the accusation that a Medical Board has been rigged is quite a serious one.'
'I've no complaints. I was dealt with in a perfectly fair and reasonable way. Probably better than I deserved.'
'What kind of questions did they ask?'
Sassoon smiled. 'Don't you know?'

AP World History Review: Horrors of War Regeneration, a historical fiction book by Pat Barker, recounts the experiences of the patients in Craiglockhart War Hospital and their doctor, Dr. Rivers. Rivers job is to help his patients recover through helping them recount their war memories. Pat Barker uses the memories of his characters to reveal the horrors caused by World War I. Regeneration is a string book about opinions and overcoming obstacles. Dr. River's role is to help his patients overcome the obstacle of their rears and horrors that they experienced in World War I, but in doing so is forced to listen to and picture the gruesome tales. These experiences therapy sessions in the end of the book change the overall opinion the River's has on the war. Pat Barker's characters are in a wide variety, but have a similarity, they all have a specific dislike of the war, and are afraid to return to it. Pat Barker successfully displays the horrors of the many veterans of the Great War.
If you are an ethical man, how do you change another man's mind about the war he has been fighting, a man recognized for heroic action and his concern for his troops? And a man who is a well known poet--whose words always have meaning, and are not part of Orwellian Newspeak? Barker's novel effectively dramatizes the discussions Dr. W.H. R. Rivers may have had with poet Siegfried Sassoon in order to send him back to the trenches of WWI. Because Sassoon had publicly accused 'those who have the power of ending the war' of prolonging it, his friends, particularly Robert Graves, arranged and encouraged his admission to the psychiatric hospital rather than punitive disciplinary action. Regeneration has been labeled an anti-war novel--and it is hard to be pro- war ever after the fact when reading of the realities of trench warfare during WWI. More important, the novel's presentation of the dilemmas posed to both doctor and patient raise questions for us about the rationale for war, the role of politicians and businessmen and the public's sheeplike acquiesence, and the morality of 'brainwashing' or other efforts to change people's minds. The great irony is what happened after the book's coverage of events: Sassoon returned to the war, and unlike so many of the young poets who fought in it, he lived to old age--but did not write as much poetry in his middle years. And Robert Graves, who appears as a good manipulator of people and events, lived also to old age and greater fame than Sassoon.
I have finished Pat Barker's work, and still find that I'm drawn to it. When reading the book, I felt I was in 1917, walking through the hospital with the characters. I came away knowing Dr. Rivers, and wanting to talk more with Seigfried. I've read about WWI, but Regeneration made me feel that I was there. As a boy I lived next to a WWI German soldier, who briefly talked to me about his side of the trenches. This book gave me a glimpse at the horror he must have witnessed.
AP World History Book Review: A Fascinating Book Regeneration is a fascinating book because it is a war story that uses fictional characters to better tell the story. Regeneration is a great way to learn about what the soldiers who fought during World War 1 went through, and it sheds a light on a few of the soldiers' different rehabilitation processes. You will not want to this book down, as it tells a fascinating story of a soldier who believed that the war was a senseless slaughter, and when he told his commanding officers, they sent him to a war hospital. Regeneration talks about how the soldier was mentally stable, and since the doctors could not find anything wrong with him, they sent him back into the war. Pat Barker wrote this book because she wanted to explain how war changes people. She talks about many different patients at the war hospital and how they were affected by World War 1. Some of the patients were mentally unstable, while others were physically disabled. Pat Barker wrote the book as if she was standing right there when it all happened. Overall, Regeneration is a great way to learn about war in a truly fascinating way. If you love learning about war, but hate reading nonfiction books, then this book is perfect for you.
Loved it. Had to read it for class but ended up enjoying it anyway.
This book looks at many of the social issues confronting society in the midst of the industrial revolution and the horror of the war to end all wars. Insightful and thought provoking in relation to the first diagnosis of PTSD?
This book is a great resource for those looking for a general idea of what society was really LIKE during Word War 1. This book was intriguing from the begining. By creating a somewhat fictional story, the author was able to express the difficulties of the doctor, Rivers, to treat those suffering from war neurosis. The end of the book was especially exceptional as it brought together the rest of the story into a sort of climatic point that supported an idea of anti-war in today's society. By writing a story about World War 1, the author was able to confront a somewhat controversial topic of today: to war or not to war? By stating history as it was, she was able to prove to the readers that war is destructive. Even from the point of view of soldiers, they would for the most part agree that war is destructive. So, the author did an excellent job in conveying her views to the reader and successfully supporting it.
It is clear why she won the Booker Prize--this is an enthralling novel
"You are NOT dying on me." She mumbled.
"What killed you?"

From the Publisher
When I go into a school and see behavior that needs attention, I try to address my feelings as well as those of the students who are affected. Rather than telling someone how to live their life, I'd rather show in words what my experiences have led me to believe. We all have the right to choose the path we wish to take, it's also good to know what our options are.

"This book is a must for anyone attempting to examine the iPhone. The level of forensic detail is excellent. If only all guides to forensics were written with this clarity!"-Andrew Sheldon, Director of Evidence Talks, computer forensics experts
With iPhone use increasing in business networks, IT and security professionals face a serious challenge: these devices store an enormous amount of information. If your staff conducts business with an iPhone, you need to know how to recover, analyze, and securely destroy sensitive data. iPhone Forensics supplies the knowledge necessary to conduct complete and highly specialized forensic analysis of the iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPod Touch. This book helps you:
And more. iPhone Forensics includes techniques used by more than 200 law enforcement agencies worldwide, and is a must-have for any corporate compliance and disaster recovery plan.
Jonathan Zdziarski is better known as the hacker "NerveGas" in the iPhone development community. He worked on the initial cracking of the iPhone and helped lead the effort to port the first open source applications. His initial book on the iPhone, iPhone Open Application Development, developed an immediate cult following and taught developers how to write applications for the popular device before the SDK was ever conceived. Prior to the release of iPhone Forensics, Jonathan wrote and supported an iPhone forensics manual distributed exclusively to law enforcement, and has assisted many forensic examiners in their investigations. Jonathan frequently consults to law enforcement agencies and teaches an iPhone forensics workshop in his spare time to train forensic examiners and corporate security personnel. Jonathan is also a full-time research scientist specializing in machine learning technology to combat online fraud and spam, and to develop networking products capable of learning how to better protect customers. He is founder of the DSPAM project, a high-profile, next-generation spam filter that was acquired in 2006 by Sensory Networks, Inc. He lectures widely on the topic of spam and is a foremost researcher in the fields of machine-learning and algorithmic theory.

The animals on the cover of iPhone Forensics are least weasels (Mustela nivalis). There are 67 species of weasel, including the mink, ermine, ferret, otter,and skunk. Weasels, who are characterized by long, slender bodies and shortlegs, are found on all continents except Antarctica and Australia, and in a vastvariety of habitats. The least weasel is the smallest of the 67 species of weasel.Weighing in at approximately two ounces and measuring less than ten incheslong, the least weasel is the smallest carnivore on Earth. They are foundthroughout the world, in northern climates. In warm weather this weasel'scoat is brown, with a white underside. In winter it turns completely white.Thanks to its camouflage abilities and its speed and agility, the least weasel israrely caught.
The diet of the least weasel is made up primarily of voles and mice, which,because of the weasels' high metabolism, they hunt constantly. One family ofthese little weasels can consume thousands of rodents each year, making themimportant in controlling pest populations. Because it is so small, the leastweasel can follow mice into their burrows and eat them there. Like other weasels,they will occasionally then make their victim's home their own, lining itwith the fur of the former resident when preparing to nest. Least weasels canproduce two litters a year, with three to five young per litter.

Good for academia, but outdated
By RP
from Vancouver, BC
Comments about oreilly iPhone Forensics:
This book is good if you're interested in how things once were, and to understand forensic methods in the iPhone, but the information in the book is completely out of date. The iOS systems have changed, some of the exploits no longer exist, and some of the files/tools used are no longer in development, have been amalgamated into other programs, or otherwise will not work with phones running current software.Zdziarski won't update his material because he's limiting it to law enforcement, so this book is completely moot.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great introduction to iPhone forensics
By ueberhund
from Salt Lake City, UT
About Me Developer
Best Uses
This is an invaluable resource to understanding forensic details in regards to the iPhone. While it is small in size (coming in at just over 100 pages), it is dense in detail. This book provides good detail about where data on the iPhone is located, how to recover it, and how to keep your forensic footprint small.For readers not as versed in computer forensics, the book does a good job introducing the subject. The iPhone is disceted in detail, and much information is provided regarding how to access the details of the phone that Apple doesn't want you to get at. Once you get at that information, the book shows how to extract that data onto a non-iPhone device. This is a great read for anyone who may have to deal with recovering data off an iPhone due to terminiation or other law enforcement issues.My only complaint about the book is that this first edition was printed in September 2008, so it's missing some information about current versions of the iPhone firmware and hardware for the iPhone 3GS iPhone 4. Aside from that single issue, this is an excellent resource, and certainly a great resource for hardware up to the iPhone 3 and firmware versions up to 2.x.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Need to examine an iphone/ipod touch? Get this book.
By Anonymous
from Undisclosed
For such a popular device, you'd think you would find alot more resources for forensic examination of it. Alas, this text is the largest single wealth of information on the subject I could find. It's a good thing for us that it's very well written. Be warned, this is not for the forensic newbie. You'll want to be comfortable with the command line at the least. More likely you're experienced with computer forensic work in general, or I hope so if you're expecting to go to court! While Jonathan does a great job writing at length about recovering the evidence and of iphone specific discovery, you're going to have to apply general forensics knowledge after that to finish and complete your discovery. This shouldn't be a problem for the audience of the book though.The book covers recovery for firmware 1.0.2 through the latest release as of this writing, 2.1. Pre-1.0.2 recovery requires either a method that the author does not know about or is perhaps not feasible. In that case the author recommends upgrading the firmware as a last resort. Not a very good solution, but that's not Jonathan's fault. If anyone knows another way, please do shoot him an e-mail and he'll probably add it to the errata.All in all an excellent book on the subject. Anyone who needs to do some iphone/ipod touch forensics would be remiss not to pick this up. Even if think you can just grab the payloads and do it yourself, there's alot of pitfalls and helpful advice on evidence collection and discovery you'll be missing out on!

SO what I do...I get up in the morning, at around 8 and then work out for 2 hours and then come back and get ready for things and do other things until around 12 or 12:30 and then I eat!! 2 meals only a day!
I usually like long, sit down breakfasts and that usually doesn't happen except for on the weekends. I like my big American breakfast: sausage, eggs, omelets, orange juice, grits, pancakes...yea, I love big all you can eat brunches. They are the best.
I eat with the kids before getting started with school work.
The only thing that gets me out of bed in the morning is knowing that my fruit bowl is awaiting me in the fridge, and the smell of the coffee already percolating.
I eat breakfast at my desk. have my coffee read the news relax.
I've never been one for breakfast, even when I was a kid. All the cereals and stuff... never liked them much. My mom tried granola bars, pop tarts, everything. Finally when I got to highschool she started making me a sandwich for breakfast so I'd eat it in the car on the way to school. I didn't eat it because I wanted to, I ate it to make her feel better. To this day I don't eat breakfast. I get up, shower, dress and have my coffee. Maybe 2 hours later I'll have some oatmeal or something like that but rarely.
I usually wake up around 6-6:15 and get to work by 7:30, meaning I eat my usual breakfast of Light and Fit yogurt with trail mix, Triscuits, a banana and Starbucks at my desk, while reading the morning headlines.
Several hours after I wake up. I can't eat when I first get up - I literally feel ill if I do.
i usually eat an hour and a half after i get up. takes time to work up an appetite. lol* have to make my hunger worth the breakfast.
I wake up, eat two pieces of fresh fruit, get dressed (to let the fruit digest), then eat my oatmeal with blueberries and a cup of white tea. Every morning no matter what! It's a non-negotiable. I eat this even on the weekends when I cook my boyfriend a fried breakfast. Yum, I love it! If I absolutely had no time, I have homemade protein bars in the freezer that I could grab on the way out the door, but I'd never go without. I know I've said this before, but I cannot function without breakfast!! It's the one thing I'm really anal about.
Never at the same time everyday. Some days I skip it.
I usually eat a wheat bagel or an English muffin in my car on the way to work in the morning...or I'll eat a yogurt with banana when I get to work. On the weekends, I usually don't eat until I've been awake for an hour or so.
At work around 8. Any earlier and I get hungry before lunch.
I went to a dietician, and she recommended eating within one hour of waking up, even if it is something small in order to curb cravings later in the day. It is really true, I used to eat when I got to work, but was really snacky later in the morning. Now even though I eat earlier, I am not hungry later in the morning.
I, too, am one of those people who can't eat as soon as I get up: it makes me sick. So I usually eat 45 minutes to 1.5 hours after I get up. But I will have a glass of calcium-fortified OJ or Pom juice with my vitamins as I'm getting ready.
After my workout and shower, but before I "get ready".
I have about the same schedule as musefromnowhere. Early start, get ready and eat while getting ready to leave the door.
I have to get up around 6:30 most days, but I usually eat yogurt with some granola or fruit in it while I'm getting ready (i.e. mascara...bite...brush hair...bite) :-) I can't skip breakfast - it's my favorite meal of the day!
Always after I get dressed. I'm so slow in the mornings I need to do things in order of priority - get up, dressed, fix bed-head i.e. my hair, have breakfast. I have to be left the house at 7.15am so sometimes I'll skip breakfast at home, and grab something at work. I'm with Lianna - can't believe how early some people have to get up!
Oh my, I was shocked at how many of you say you get up between 4:30 and 5:30, that is so early! and to work out on top of that, I give you guys props, I can barely get up at 6:30
Normally I don't want to eat when I first get up. I'll have a glass of milk and take my vitamin, and then I either grab something and eat in the car, or pick up something on the way in. I work in a hospital/university setting, so there are lots of options. Lately I've been trying to make sure I have a piece of fruit with whatever it is, just to get in all those fruits and veggies I need to eat every day.
It really just depends. Most mornings, I get up, I shower, and then I have breakfast (Carnation, anyway). Weekends it's more or less whenever I get hungry. (At which time it may be considered lunch.) :)
i have a breakfast bar or peanut butter on wheat bread once i get to work everyday. weekends- i try and sleep past breakfast time... :)
Why do I love this picture? LOL Anyway, during the week I eat breakfast at work. 9am. Weekends? Not really into breakfast - but I like coffee brought to me in bed...
