President Donald Trump plans to nominate Jets' owner Woody Johnson as the US Ambassador to the United Kingdom, the team confirmed on Thursday.
In the case that Johnson is nominated and confirmed by the US Senate, he would hand over his duties as Chairman and CEO to his brother, Christopher Johnson, who will directly oversee the team's day-to-day operations.
Jets DE Sheldon Richardson says head coach Todd Bowles has been more strict than in the past, per Darryl Slater of NJ.com.
Bowles has been left with a young team following the Jets' roster purge that including veterans like C Nick Mangold and LB David Harris. With his job possibly in jeopardy, he has been putting emphasis on working harder.
"It's completely different from the last couple years," Richardson said at minicamp. "A lot more strict now. We weren't loose [in the past], but it's a lot more strict now. It's even more enforced than what it has been in the past."

Jets LB Lorenzo Mauldin turned himself in to authorities Wednesday morning in Manhattan for his alleged role in a nightclub attack that took place on April 2, according to TMZ Sports.
Mauldin, who is also being sued in civil court, was not arrested or charged after the incident. The Jets said earlier this month that they're aware of the lawsuit but had no further comment.
An NFL spokesman told ESPN's Rich Cimini that the league is looking into the incident.

Former Jets LB David Harris has agreed to a two-year deal with the New England Patriots worth $6.75 million, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
The Patriots offered Harris more than the Jets offered him earlier this month prior to his release, reports Mike Florio of NBC Sports.
Harris visited with the Patriots on Wednesday after speaking with head coach Bill Belichick (and coaches from five other teams) earlier this week, notes Florio.

The Jets were one of the worst pass-rushing teams in the NFL last year, finishing the season wtih just 27 sacks, and only 5.5 of them coming from the team's outside linebackers.
Todd Bowles brought in former NFL linebacker Kevin Greene as New York's new linebackers coach, and Greene has already expressed optimism towards his young group of players.
"The sky's the limit for all my kids," Greene told Daniel Popper of the Daily News. "I'm teaching my kids technique and fundamentals not based on athletic ability and skill. It's based on physicality. It's based on drive and desire and want-to and being a student of the game. ... All my kids can really be as good they want to be."

The Jets have signed former Bears WR Marquess Wilson, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Wilson only played in three games last season as he was on the IR with a broken foot. He is a big target, standing at 6-foot-4, 205 pounds, and will add some competition before training camp begins.
In four seasons with the Bears, Wilson played in 31 games, hauling in 56 receptions for 777 yards and 3 touchdowns.
The Jets new running backs coach, Stump Mitchell, believes RB Bilal Powell has Pro Bowl ability, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini.
Mitchell has been impressed with Powell since joining the Jets this season, and he thinks if he didn't have to share time with another back, he has would attain Pro Bowl status.
"Bilal is a Pro Bowl back if he was playing by himself, make no doubt about that," Mitchell said at minicamp.

Former Jets LB Larry Grantham dies at age 78: Larry Grantham, a member of the Jets' only Super Bowl team in 1969, died on Tuesday at the age of 78. Apart from being a Super Bowl Champion, Grantham has been enshrined in the Jets Ring of Honor as well.
Elsewhere in New York sports the Mets dropped a slugfest to the Dodgers, the Yankees lose their top prospect to injury, and the NBA draft is just two days away.
The Jets' roster purge and commitment to begin rebuilding this season earned them a "C+" offseason grade, per ESPN's Rich Cimini.
As the offseason is normally used to rebuild rosters, the Jets tore theirs down thanks to move made by owner Woody Johnson. Among the roster cuts were LB David Harris and WR Eric Decker, which saved the Jets almost $14 million in payroll alone. C Nick Mangold and CB Darrelle Revis were also part of the 11 veterans the Jets go rid of this offseason.
Cimini said the grade should be worse considering the Jets now have one of the worst rosters in the NFL, but looking at the big picture, the Jets are acknowledging their rebuild and will have $80 million to work with next offseason.

The Jets announced former LB Larry Grantham, a Ring of Honor member and Super Bowl III champion, has died at age 78.
Grantham opted to join the AFL's New York Titans despite being drafted in the NFL by the Baltimore Colts in 1960. The Titans became the Jets in 1963, and Grantham would stay with them until his retirement in 1972.
He was the starting linebacker for the Jets' Super Bowl III championship team where he called all the plays on defense. Grantham played in 175 career games, and was a five-time AFL All-Star and a five-time all-NFL selection.

Decker, 30, played 33 games with the Jets over the past three seasons, totaling 163 catches, 2,183 receiving yards and 19 touchdowns.
Decker had appeared healthy entering organized team activities in May after he missed 13 games last season due to rotator cuff and hip injuries.
New York released him last Monday when they were unable to find a trading partner. The Jets will face a $1.5 million cap hit this year and next after releasing Decker.

RB Matt Forte says the Jets aren't tanking the season, despite the fact that they've cut the majority of their veteran players this offseason.
"It's a good thing we don't operate off of what the fans think and what everybody on the outside thinks," Forte said, according to The Record. "What we think as a team, that's what's going to happen. And none of us on the team think that we're going to tank. So all I have to say about that is: Bring it."
The Jets, who went 5-11 last season, have cut Brandon Marshall, Eric Decker, David Harris, Darrelle Revis, Nick Mangold, Nick Folk, and Breno Giacomini since the season ended. They also declined their option on Ryan Clady.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - It's really quite an accomplishment for the Jets to come off a disappointing and perhaps disastrous 5-11 season and find a way to get worse. But they did it. They purged their roster of most of their veterans and replaced them with untested, unknown players. They're playing the long game, even though their short term looks rather bleak.
Who knows if they're "tanking" with their eyes on a top draft pick next season? Maybe they're just acknowledging the need to experience short-term pain for long-term gain. Whatever it is, there isn't a lot of hope for the 2017 season. Their eyes are on 2018, or perhaps beyond.

It doesn't seem to make any sense that the Jets are rebuilding and going with young players at every position, but they will almost certainly be led by a 38-year-old quarterback. Everywhere else, the Jets purged their roster of veterans so the young players could get an unimpeded opportunity.

The New York Jets are expected to sign running back and kick returner Jordan Todman to a contract, according to ESPN's Adam Caplan.
Todman, 27, recorded 59 rushing yards on nine attempts in 16 games last season for the Indianapolis Colts. As a kick returner, he totaled 16 returns for 478 yards, including a 99-yard return for a touchdown against the Green Bay Packers in Week 9.
A sixth-round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft by the San Diego Chargers, Todman played 33 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars from 2012 to 2014 and played 11 games with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2015.
The old battle cry from venters that "You can't tell the players without a scorecard" has never felt more appropriate than it does now, heading into the Jets' full-team minicamp. So many familiar names and faces are gone. Really, almost every familiar name and face is gone.
The Jets might want to consider handing out nametags, too.
For better or for worse - and yes, it's likely for worse - the Jets get their first, full look at the purged roster that GM Mike Maccagnan has assembled when their three-day minicamp kicks off on Tuesday morning. They have so much work to do - work that likely won't be completed until 2018, or perhaps later - and so many questions to answer.

Cutler was contacted by the Jets soon after being released by the Bears but wasn't ready to make up his mind on his next move.
"I kind of balked at that because I didn't really want to jump into anything," Cutler told Adam Schefter of ESPN earlier this week. "Whether they would've offered me a contract or that it would've worked out, I have no idea. That's something the Jets know more than I know."

|I'm pretty sure the Ospho must be the same as the Rustmort by SEM, I had been using for years. Over the past couple years I have been using a few different products yeilding the same to very simular results. I find that the most effective products like the rustmort are approximately 75% phosphoric acid. Recently I've used some stuff at my local tractor supply store as well as POR's metal ready, all with the same results. I have even used concrete etcher with simular results. Now I just try to find the most cost effective product as most the items I am working on are/were rusty. I also like to wipe off pieces that I have welded with something to help neutralize the oxidation left from welding. Plus areas that are welded contain more iron than the mild steel pieces usually welded, therefore more susceptible to corroding faster. Many cars that have been brought to my shop usually are rustier where they were previously repaired!
|Hey Dave, what do you use straight phosphric acid or is that the main ingredient in the product you use.....like my Ospho I love so much....
|Dave C.
|Don't worry, If you look at the spec sheets and MSDS for most DTM primer/sealers, they use phosophuric acid to assist in etching to the metal. I just prefer the extra preperation steps to ensure the rust has been stopped.
|diety motorsports
as long as there is no rust left. and was dry and covered with a dtm epoxy. the rust cannot come back. if sealed properly. I would not worry about it at this time.
|Riot Racing
|Dave C.
|IMO, After looking at those wheels, I would wash them with phosphoric acid, scuff them, then spray your epoxy. I have a bunch of parts that were sandblasted and then powder coated which are spider webbing all over. I don't believe that sandblasting removes the rust, it only removes the loose material. Oxidation is a chemical reaction to the iron. Pitting reveals the problem as an embedded problem to the steel piece.
|diety motorsports
imo. as far as difficulty. I would not use any rust converter at all. sandblasting will take care of all the rust. clean em well with wax and grease remover, and put your 2k dtm epoxy on em. Per spec sheet when the epoxy is ready, shoot just a hi-build 2k primer. a few coats max. Let dry at least 24 hours to allow for shrikage. lightly sand with approx. 400, since your not going for full on body panel type perfection. should be plenty smooth and shoot your color. you don't need sealer on top of 2k primer. I think you will be happy with the results. If you rub through the primer, rescuff the entire wheel again, with 180 clean again and shoot a few more coats on. bottom line is you want a nice even finish throughout to put your top coat on. All sanding will be done by hand of course, and again, make em nice, but you won't be able to get your standard, blocks etc in there, wear gloves to prevent hand oils etc getting in any step of your paint and prep work.
|Also there is a air adjustment ,more air hardly any paint at first until you get the hang of it.
|If you turn the gun down so the trigger barely moves and not much paint comes out,almost none it's easy to get into all the cracks and hard to reach spots first and carefully once you get the whole thing covered you turn the gun up and put a nice wet coat on you won,t get runs. Also turn the fan closed so it hits small spot at first,then widen for wet coat to about six inces. If you need to fill the pits with the filler primer just turn down the amount again and carefully fill where you need it. Don,t be in a hurry and learn to adjust your gun and it is easy,and won,t get out of hand and cause extra work.
|Jasco....Thats the good stuff ,just a tad better than aircraft stripper...I heard that Lowes and Home dept now sell Ospho and of coarse aircraft stripper and Jasco stripper
I have been trying to find the Ospho around here. At Ace hardware, correct? The closest store, does not carry it, but would be happy to order it, if I wanted to buy a whole case (12 bottles) of the stuff.
On another note, I bought this paint stripper.
and did a little messing around with removing paint off a hood for a Datsun pickup.
|Just epoxy wont stop them from rusting again fairly quickly...What I would do is first wire wheel some Ospho in there ,theres still quite a bit of rust in those pits the Ospho will remove most of whats left and convert any remnents there might be,Then use the SPI epoxy ,it will build but it'll take mabee 5-6 coats...give it a good sanding and shoot it with 2 more coats ..that should do it ...
As DBM said, sanding those wheels "surfacing" them is a MUTHA big time. If you must, and yours are pretty badly pitted then the polyester primer (it is an "undercoat" as "Top coat" is something you leave it in) is the way to go. But don't spray it everywhere, epoxy it and just spray the polyester where you NEED it. Sand it out and then epoxy the whole thing again and spray your paint (top coat) right over the epoxy, as no sanding is needed. (if you follow the manufacturers recommendations for "recoat window")
OH MY GOD does this bring back a horror story in my career. One time many years ago I did a set of Model A wires that were badly pitted. Polyster primed all four, spokes and all, inside and out and surfaced them! HOLY CRAP my figures were raw by the time I finished those damn wheels! I had no finger prints! LOL
You may want to "surface" the metal first with a roloc "surface conditioning disc", I know I would. Get the coarsest one, I forget the name of the color, it's a beige looking one, on an angle grinder and smooth out the metal before priming.
I have never used SPI but I understand it will fill and sand well (Shine may speak up, he uses it a lot) and after surfacing it with the Roloc disc the SPI epoxy primer may be enough. I would do anything personally before I broke out the polyester primer. It is bad ars stuff, a real life saver when you MUST use it, but if you don't, don't, it adds a LOT of work to surfacing.
|I just did a set of ralley's and used epoxy, then primer, mine were as rough as yours...or worse... I think the feather fill will be too thick..and for rallys, all that needs to be really nice is the front and really not under the center cap as much, which means, on the front lip and center area that shows...you can lay a couple coats of primer ..either epoxy or 2k..and those areas will be easy to sand....
You can hang stuff to paint it, but if still leaves a "shadow" where the wire was.
Your wheels do have some pretty bad pitting from rust. Are the wheels anything special, or would it be easier to just get some new wheels?
One advantage of laying the wheels flat is you can more easily get a uniform coat around the wheel. Another possible solution is to thin the DP epoxy (2 parts DPLF, 1 part DP402LF. 1/2 part DT reducer), and spray wet, almost to the point you get "visible flow out indicators"
Some people call "visible flow out indicators" runs.
Painting the wheels can be tricky. It is hard to get paint into the narrow slots between the hub, and the wheel, without getting too much paint on to adjacent areas. the spoked wheel were even more troublesome, because I had to paint the edges of the spokes first, and then the flat more visible areas of the spokes, and finally the rim of the wheel.
Maybe some of the professional painters on this board can do a wheel like that quickly, but I resorted to adjusting the fan width, and paint flow down to a small fan. to do some areas, and opening up the controls on the gun to do other areas.

Woman Suffrage Centennial Web Exhibit
Origins of the woman suffrage movement in Oregon
Beginning with the formation of local equal suffrage associations in 1870, the struggle for full voting rights for Oregon women spanned forty-two years. The issue of voting rights—also called suffrage or the franchise—for Oregon's women appeared on the state's ballot six times: 1884, 1900, 1906, 1908, 1910, and 1912. After 1902, supporters of woman suffrage used the Oregon System with its initiative process to bring their issue directly to the men of the state who would make the decision. Women finally achieved full voting rights in the general election of 1912. With that success, Oregon joined other Western states and territories in extending the vote to its female citizens and providing crucial legitimacy to the woman suffrage movement nationally.
The earliest phase of organization and activity began in 1870 with the formation of local suffrage associations. Abigail Scott Duniway, an early advocate of women's voting rights, arranged for the notable suffragist Susan B. Anthony to tour the Pacific Northwest in 1871. The success of that tour led to the formation of Oregon Woman Suffrage Association in 1873. Efforts to press the issue of women voting occurred in 1872, when Duniway, Maria Hendee, Mrs. M.A. Lambert, and Mrs. Beatty, an African American woman, attempted to cast ballots in the November presidential election. Their actions were part of a nationwide movement, that included Susan B. Anthony, to extend the franchise to women using the provisions of the 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution. Women's ballots were not included in the official voting tabulations, and in Anthony's case caused her to be arrested for voting illegally. Although Oregon women had some limited voting rights in some school elections; their quest remained to have the rights and responsibilities of full citizenship, which included universal suffrage.
During this same time period, Duniway established the New Northwest newspaper (1871-1887). Her goal was to promote economic and social rights for women, as well as the right to vote. The paper's pages were filled with news items, poetry, advice, and opinion pieces and served as a conduit between local and national sources. Duniway solidified Oregon's connection with the national woman suffrage movement by attending national suffrage conventions and arranging tours of the Pacific Northwest for national suffrage leader Susan B. Anthony in 1871, and again in 1896. Those extended tours included innumerable lectures by the two women across the state in Salem, Oregon City, The Dalles and Walla Walla, Washington, and later in Eugene and Roseburg. Relations between Western suffragists, including Duniway, and their eastern counterparts, such as Anthony and Anna Howard Shaw, were often strained by different strategic approaches to passing suffrage legislation—Duniway preferring the "still hunt" approach of restrained lobbying while Anthony and Shaw advocated for a much more public style of campaign.
Differences aside, the National American Woman Suffrage Association held its convention in Portland in 1905 in conjunction with the Lewis and Clark Exposition. The energy generated by the presence of nationally prominent suffragists and the local suffrage community during the fair resulted in a much more visible and popular Oregon woman suffrage movement. The momentum generated during the summer of 1905 launched a second wave of attempts to extend suffrage to the state's women.
In 1906, 1908, and 1910 supporters of enfranchising women campaigned to secure that right. Oregon now had the initiative process in place, which allowed supporters to gather signatures to place the suffrage question directly on the ballot. Abigail Scott Duniway and a new generation of younger suffragists, including Dr. Esther Pohl Lovejoy, clashed over campaign tactics. There were differences, too, with the Women's Christian Temperance Union and its desire to use the vote to prohibit the manufacture and sale of liquor. This fact was not lost on the state's liquor and business interests, which ran an organized and well-funded resistance to giving women the vote. The three successive suffrage measures lost by increasingly larger margins and gave Oregon the dubious distinction of defeating woman suffrage more times than any other state.
Success at last
Grass roots organizing by local groups using speeches, meetings, advertising, and the distribution of suffrage literature dominated the state's early twentieth century campaigns for women's voting rights. After submission by Duniway of another initiative petition to place the woman suffrage question on the ballot for the sixth time, the Oregon Senate Joint Resolution No. 12 and House Concurrent Resolution No. 24 recommended ratification of the equal suffrage amendment to the Oregon constitution in the November general election.
With the 1912 campaign, successful coalition building resulted in alignment with over 75 groups across the state that included men's equal suffrage leagues, Chinese American and African American women's equal suffrage leagues, women's clubs, farm groups, labor unions, and civic organizations. A new generation of Oregon clubwomen united in the final push to gain voting rights for women that included: the Portland Woman's Club Suffrage Campaign Committee led by Dr. Esther Pohl Lovejoy, Sara Evans, Elizabeth Eggert, and Grace Watt Ross; the Colored Women's Equal Suffrage Association headed by Hattie Redmond and Katherine Gray; the Chinese American Equal Suffrage League; and the Portland Equal Suffrage League led by president Josephine Hirsch. The campaign stretched around the state and reached a peak over the summer and into the fall with an automobile parade in Klamath Falls, an open air lecture in Drake Park in Bend, a suffrage booth at Prineville's county fair, and a suffrage luncheon at the Pendleton Hotel.
On November 5, 1912, fifty-two percent of the male voters of the state approved extending the franchise to women. With that outcome, the vital right of citizenship was extended to the majority of Oregon women. Many Native women and men were unable to claim U.S. citizenship and the vote until the federal Indian Citizenship Act of 1924. First generation Asian immigrants (male or female) could not become naturalized citizens, and voting rights did not include them at this time.
In honor of her dedication to the cause of woman suffrage, Gov. Oswald West asked Abigail Scott Duniway to author and sign the Oregon Equal Suffrage Proclamation Duniway became the first woman to vote in Oregon when she cast her ballot at the polls in 1914.
The Campaign for national woman suffrage
With voting rights secured for Oregon women, many local suffragists continued the struggle for a national amendment. Oregon and the Western states had been early leaders in the woman suffrage movement, and their successes were publicized in the push for a national equal suffrage amendment. Oregon's successful woman suffrage campaign demonstrated the effectiveness of coalition building and proved that women were capable of, and eager to participate in, electoral politics. The U.S. Congress passed the 19th Amendment on June 4, 1919. On January 12, 1920, Representative Sylvia Thompson (D-Hood River) introduced House Resolution 1, and upon its adoption by both houses, Oregon became the 25th state to ratify the 19th Amendment. The 36th state finally ratified the amendment on August 26, 1920, and for the first time since its adoption, the U.S. Constitution included equal voting rights for women.
The following pages illustrate some of the people, organizations, events, and documents that tell the history of the perseverance and determination that finally led to victory and the extension of voting rights to the women of Oregon.

Posts Tagged 'Boogie Bikini Top by Freya'
March 5th, 20120
The start of another working week. if you are on your daily commute this Monday and you find yourself staring at billboards advertising hot destinations, you might find yourself drifting off and daydreaming of sunnier shores, it certainly makes the journey go faster! You may be one of the many UK residents whom have already booked their summer holiday, or you might be one of the lucky ones, going away soon, to search out some winter sun. Even at this time of year there are a few warm destinations not that far away, that are experiencing temperatures in the mid-twenties (sob sob).
Even if your holiday seems like its light years away, it is still difficult not to get a bit excited. Granted, we haven't even opened our first Easter Egg yet and the Christmas Tree may still be visible behind the shed, but the shops are already full of cotton printed tops, strappy sandals and floaty dresses. There doesn't seem to be much evidence of winter on our high streets and the same goes for our fashion magazines. It may be only the start of March, but we can still dream and plan our summer getaway and what's the most important item when you head for the sun…swimwear.
Bravissimo have some fabulous brand new bikinis and swimsuits that have just hit our shops and online store, so take a look at some of our new styles available now. And if you just can't wait till your holiday, you can always wear it at your local swimming pool, where you will definitely create a few waves.
The Paris Bikini Top by Pureda is absolutely adorable, it is a padded plunge bikini in a cute floral and polka dot print. It has a vintage fifties feel, but manages also to look contemporary, it is available in black with a white spot, combined with red flowers and red ties. This bikini top gives fantastic cleavage but also offers great support. It comes with a Swim Brief or Swim Fold Brief for more coverage.
The Boogie Bikini Top by Freya is another on trend bikini, it is available in a very vibrant sixties style retro print in Firefly. It is a halterneck top, which always creates amazing cleavage and it is available to buy with some sixties style bikini shorts or tie side briefs if you fancy something with less coverage.
If you want more coverage than a bikini can give you, you could opt for the Veronica Swimsuit by Panache, a really stylish and classic swimsuit, it is super flattering because of ruching detail and it also has a power mesh lining for more tummy control. It is underwired bra top with a keyhole detail at the back and comes in scarlet. This is a really gorgeous swimsuit that will look stylish year after year.

A Success Story: A Graduation Class Identified
Posted by
Months ago, I wrote a Photo Detective column for the March 2010 issue of
Family Tree Magazine
called "The Graduates." It was about the chance discovery of a photograph stuck behind the lath in a bathroom wall in Sandi Alex's house in Camas, Washington. This story has a happy ending!
Sandi told an elderly neighbor who'd lived on their street her whole life about the photo. That neighbor thought maybe the picture once belonged to the Mott Family who'd built Sandi's house.
Being a genealogist, Sandi wanted to reunite the picture with a member of that family so she posted a query on genealogy message boards including the Mott surname forum on Ancestry.com. Judy Strong saw that posting and contacted Sandi. Judy's paternal relatives were the Mott's. They'd lived in that house until 1959.
I knew from their attire, props and pose that it was a graduation picture and I worked with Sandi and Judy to try to figure out the names of the students and the teacher. We also tried to discover why the image was in the house since it didn't appear to feature any of the Mott's. We had a couple of ideas, but nothing definite.
The final identification came from a
Family Tree Magazine
subscriber. Janet Cosgrove of Yamhill, Oregon wrote to the editors. "Today I received the March 2010 issue in the mail and was flipping thru the pages, when I saw "The Graduates" picture and was shocked to see my maternal grandmother in it." We were equally surprised.
Janet not only knew her grandmother, she had a date and the names of the people in the image. Amazing! Her great-uncle had listed all their names on the back of a copy of the original picture.
From left to right are Harold Peterson, Esther Jones, Marie Schrohe, Mabel Nielsen, and Edith Anderson (the teacher). Janet's maternal grandmother taught this small class at the Constance School in Green Valley, Waupaca, Wisconsin. This is the graduating class of 1915.
It's so interesting when photos are suddenly identified. I wonder if the family living in the house ever missed the picture. It didn't depict any of the Mott's but Janet thought that perhaps Esther Jones was the daughter of the widow Sarah Rodwell Jones that I mentioned in the magazine article. She was related to Mrs. Emma Mott.
This photo is a great story--it's about youth, young love and family. Turns out that the teacher ended up teaching for only two years. She married the older brother of her student Harold Peterson.
Case Closed!

Friends and Neighbors
Posted by
A couple of weeks ago, I presented several lectures at the
San Luis Obispo Genealogical Society
conference. I had great time and got to look at some interesting pictures. Roma Miller showed me this snapshot.
This was in Roma's box of photos from her step-grandfather's family mixed in with other family photos. On the back it says, "Caroline 1927." But who's Caroline and where was it taken?
Look carefully at this image. See the shadow of the photographer at the bottom? It's a great shot of someone taking a picture of this woman. his or her arms are raised, holding the camera.
Next look to the right of Caroline—there is a child. This little kid wears overalls and has his head bowed down. The short pants signify a boy, as does the haircut. This "baby cut" was similar to what we'd call a bowl cut—ear-length on the sides and bangs.
Caroline wears a simple daytime dress. She's probably busy taking care of the her child and the housework. The style of this dress makes me wonder if she could be pregnant. It's very loose-fitting. Her hair is one of the short cuts popular in the 1920s. I think it looks a lot like either something called the "Senorita" or the "Broadway."
The house is a two-story dwelling with a bow window in the style of the late 19th century. It's a Victorian-style house with a tall picket fence in the front and a wrought iron gate. In the background, a latticework wall surrounds a doorway with stairs.
Roma and I talked about ways to identify this woman.
Ask the owner:
The child is about the right age to be her step-grandfather—could this be him and his mother? Nope. He doesn't recognize the woman.
Post it online:
I'm helping out by featuring it in this column. Roma has also uploaded the picture to
Contact extended family
: Roma sent out a mass e-mail to all her relatives. Success!
A cousin identified the woman and the location. It was a neighbor of Roma's maternal great-aunt when they lived in Oakdale, Calif. A quick check of the 1930 federal census should result in a last name (as long as Caroline remained in the area). Roma may never know who took this picture, but it could be someone related to her great-aunt.
On the surface it's such a simple portrait of a young mother, but when you add in the child, the house and the photographer, it's the beginning of a story and evidence of a friendship between neighbors.
There is one other reason I love this picture. It's a perfect example of how family collections of photos contain more than just blood relatives. There are usually friends and neighbors mixed in as well.

The Search for Annie Moore
Posted by
If you don't know who Annie Moore is, you haven't been following Megan Smolenyak's research on her. For several years, Megan has been intrigued by her. Annie Moore was the first person to step foot on Ellis Island when it opened Jan. 1, 1892—a pretty significant first. There wasn't much known about her until Megan started digging.
You know how research can lead to one thing and another? Well, that's what happened with Annie. Before long, Megan found two of Annie's relatives with images purported to show this mysterious woman. They claimed they had seen a photo of her at Ellis Island.
It's a long story. I've featured the research done so far on both Annie and the pictures on
my own blog
last week. Megan and I have been trying to verify the identity of the image of three children and figure out where it was taken.
There are folks on both sides of this photo problem. Megan and I have to do more research, and we'd love to see the original picture.
Rather than link to all the research in this column, you can view the image and click through the links provided in
my blog
. It's a complicated piece of photo research.

How to Win the Family Photo Lottery
Posted by
I've lost track of exactly how long I've been writing this column. The first edition of my book
Uncovering Your Ancestry Through Family Photographs
was published in 2000, and I started this column in February of the following year.
That means you've been reading about identifying family photographs for nine years. That's a lot of pictures!
Anyone can submit photos to be featured in this space or in my Photo Detective column in
Family Tree Magazine
. Under the Navigation heading at the left is a link to
How to Submit Your Photo
While I look at and file each of the e-mails I receive from readers, you can increase the odds that you'll win this picture lottery by doing the following:
Family Tree Magazine
in the subject line of your email.
Send me a question about the image, as well as anything at all you know or don't know about it.
Your contact information—name, address and telephone number. While I'm not apt to call overseas, if you live in the United States or Canada, don't be surprised to hear me on the other end of the telephone. I like to talk with folks about their pictures. It's amazing how much more can be learned through a conversation rather than an email. Obviously, I love having unlimited long-distance calling! <smile>
In order to really see the details in your pictures, I need them submitted in at least 300 dpi. If you send them smaller, all I can see when I enlarge a detail is a blur of pixels.
This isn't too bad, but if I were to enlarge it any further it wouldn't be usable.
Don't forget to send me a scan of the back of the photo if it has any information or a photographer's name and address.
If you'd like to submit a picture but you don't have a scanner, it is possible to send a copy of an image via regular mail. You can make a copy using one of those retail photo kiosks. The mailing instructions are in the link on the
One more thing—my e-mail archive goes back several years, so keep checking your e-mail. If you change e-mail addresses or telephone numbers, please resend your image with the new contact information. A lot of the e-mail inquires I respond to for additional data never get answered by the photo's submitter.
I love working on your photo mysteries!! Keep the emails coming in.

Photo Fun with Friends
Posted by
Way back in August, I asked for photos of people smiling. In response to that request Teri Colglazier sent me this photo.
The woman in the back left has a toothy grin, probably because this group of friends has decided to have fun in front of the camera. No costumes were necessary—instead, a hand-painted board on the feet of the men proclaims: "The Hobo 8." (There are eight young people in this photo.)
Teri thought that underneath the word hobo was a number 80. I'm not sure. It looks like it could be
beneath it. If it's a number, it's not a year.
While older folks often posed for pictures in their Sunday best, it wasn't unusual for young people to go to the studio dressed in casual clothes. The two men on the right wear big sweaters that could be worn today. In the back row, all four young women wear white blouses paired with dark skirts, belted at the waist. The little details in this photo provide a time frame:
The straw hat worn by one of the young men. It has a narrow brim and and wide ribbon. The shape and style of hat brims and ribbons change from decade to decade in the early 20th century. He could work in an office.
The fellow on the far right has a flat-topped cap—all the rage in the second decade of the 20th century
The other two men wear a type of sports cap and a fedora style hat also in style in that period.
The smiling woman arranged her hair so that it forms a ridge on the top of her head. The woman next to her has her hair pulled back casually in a bow.
The woman on the far right is the most conservatively dressed with a Gibson girl-style high-neck blouse and full hairstyle.
The detail that clinches the date is the mob cap worn by the woman second from the right. I've seen photos of this type of hat on women working around the house in the period just prior to World War I.
The facts add up to the photo being taken between 1910 and 1916.
Teri now has to figure out who's in the picture. In her e-mail, she mentioned that her family kept every photo ever taken or given to them by family and friends. She thinks the man third from the left could be a family member, but she's not positive.
Anyone out there recognize these people, photographed in McLean County, Ill.?

Head Toppers
Posted by
As you know I love hairstyles, but I'm also a hat person. No, I don't wear one, but I wish I did. Given this fascination with brimmed accessories, is it any wonder I couldn't pass up Bro. Joseph F. Martin's challenge?
This photo depicts his great-grandparents Nicholas and Marcyanna Kaptur in front of their home in Detroit. Standing next to them are their daughters Emily and Constance.
It's a wonderful snapshot. Bro. Martin would like to know when the picture was taken but can't identify the hats.
I've spent the morning studying their hats. From left to right, there's a wonderful array of chapeaus. Dating and identifying a hat relies on a few things such as size and shape of the crown, size and shape of the brim, decorations (if any) and then the other details in the picture. The final bit is important because very often, historic hat styles return to current fashion. If you don't look at the context of the hat you could have the wrong decade or even century.
Great-grandmother Maryanna has a fascinating hat with a narrow brim and puffy mushroom looking crown. Her warm-weather straw hat is accented by a wide ribbon. Her husband wears a soft felt hat with a boxy crown and a wide brim. Next to him is one of their daughters, looking quite fashionable in a soft brimmed cloche hat. Her sister wears a smaller hat with what looks like a folded-back brim.
Maryanna's dress with its drop waist and sailor-style collar is much older than the photo; I think from circa 1920. Older folks in photos tend to wear older styles rather than the current trends, but there are exceptions. The daughter standing second from left wears a lovely summer dress with narrow sleeves topped with full caps, and belted at the natural waist. It's the most fashionable outfit in the photo, stylish around 1925-1929. Her sister wears a drop-waist dress from about 1925.
In this case, the dress styles and dates vary, but it appears that everyone's hat is contemporary to the late 1920s. The family is in the 1930 federal census as Nicholas, 68; Mary, 67; Constance, 26; Joseph, 26; and Emily, 23. So where's Joseph in this snapshot? I don't have proof, but he's probably the one behind the camera.

Photo Identification in the News
Posted by
Readers of this column will be as fascinated as I was with these two articles on photo identification.
In the January 2010 issue of
Smithsonian Magazine
is the story of an unidentified daguerreotype owned by Jack and Beverly Wilgus. In it a handsome young man stands facing the camera holding a long metal rod. One of his eyes is closed shut. The collectors thought he held a harpoon until they
posted their image on the social networking image site Flickr
. It wasn't long before they heard from someone who said it wasn't a harpoon and was possibly Phineas Gage. Gage's life could have been featured on a reality TV trauma show. In 1848, when 25, Gage's life changed. An accident on the job sent a 43 inch tamping iron through his skull. He lived to talk about it and was conscious when the doctor arrived on the scene. You can read about Gage's life and the story of this daguerreotype
. In the photo he's holding the rod that's engraved as a souvenir of the event.
Spring training is weeks away but for readers that are baseball fans, you'll get a jump start on the fun. A colleague sent me his 2004 issue of
The Baseball Research Journal
because it featured an article on identifying baseball images. I'm no sports fan, but I loved author George Michael's descriptions of how he sees the clues in photos of players sliding into base. You can order copies of the Journal through the
Society of American Baseball Research.
Both of these articles will end up in my files.

Texas Twosome Revisited
Posted by
Last week's tease mentioned that I'd solved a persistent mystery. Ah ... I really thought I had the answer to the
Texas mystery
. Late last year I ran a three-installment story about these two men in their embroidered shirts. In the
first piece
, I showed you the pictures and mentioned some possible solutions. The
following week
I raised a couple of other issues. The
third installment
focused on readers' suggestions.
A couple of weeks ago I was browsing through a book,
Jesse James: Last Rebel of the Civil War
by T. J. Stiles
. One of the illustrations is a photo of the outlaw "Bloody Bill" Anderson, and he's wearing an embroidered guerrilla shirt from the Civil War. I immediately jumped up and thought, "Oh, gosh, that's it!" The two men in their shirts could be guerrillas fighting for the Confederacy.
It seemed logical. The tintypes date from the Civil War, and Dr. Francis Montgomery was a Confederate officer for a short time before he was sent home ill with diabetes.
But was this new theory true? I picked up the phone and called the
Museum of the Confederacy
. Curator Robert Hancock was able to explain a few things about embroidered guerrilla shirts. He'd never seen anything like these two shirts before and really doubted that these two were Confederate guerrillas. Oh, DRAT!
He told me that guerrillas wore whatever they wanted to. Since they weren't sanctioned by the Confederacy, they weren't issued any uniforms. They worked outside the Confederate military establishment.
While he wasn't familiar with these two shirts, he was able to tell me a fascinating fact: During the 1840s, 1850s and 1860s, some young men wore embroidered shirts. Hancock told me that this fashion statement was akin to the shirts of the 1960s. In the 19th century, young men rebelling against the white shirts and black frock coats their fathers wore would wear embellished shirts. There were even outlandish printed shirts in England. Some of these featured skulls and crossbones, snakes and other outrageous designs. I'd love to see one of these 19th-century shirts!
There were other similar shirts to the one's worn here. Battle shirts for men and those worn by firemen could feature some designs. Hancock was quick to say that these two men are wearing very unusual floral pattern motifs that don't fit either category.
The big problem with these shirts is that while the shirts and the pictures are identical in many ways, the embroidery is not. So who are these guys and why the shirts? Perhaps we'll never know.

Photos with Santa
Posted by Diane
A simple question from my editor, the
Genealogy Insider
Diane Haddad, has me scrambling for the answer. She asked, "What's the history of having your picture taken with Santa?" Whoa! These iconic kid pictures are in a lot of family albums, and judging from the lines at mall Santas, having a photo with this Christmas symbol remains popular.
But when did the first kid have a picture taken with Santa? It's a good question.
Out on a gift-buying journey I found a cute little book,
A Century of Christmas Memories, 1900-1999
by the editors of the Peter Pauper Press (Peter Pauper Press). In it is a picture of baseball great Babe Ruth playing Santa at a benefit in December 1947.
The photo featured above was taken in 1942 at Macy's Department Store in New York, and now is in the collection of the Library of Congress. Accompanying information mentions there were two Santas, concealed from one another, so that the children wouldn't be upset. Each child got to talk with Santa and received a piece of candy.
The tradition must be older than that. I turned to
for help. A quick search turned up a
that mentioned that the first department store Santa was a R.H. Macy's in New York in 1870, but it didn't mention photographs.
On the
History Channel website
, there's a history of many things relating to Christmas—including a short article on mall Santas. According to that piece, in 1841, a Philadelphia store featured a life-size Santa model.
I thought a newspaper search might help. I didn't find exactly what I was looking for, but I did locate an obituary for Charles W. Howard, who was considered the "Nation's No. 1 Santa Claus." According to the obituary in the May 2, 1966,
New York Times
, Howard began his career as Santa when just a child, and then in 1937, he opened a school for Santas. He taught "psychology, costuming, makeup, whisker grooming, voice-modulation and ho-ho-ho-ing."
Howard said "You've got to know the character you're playing. It's so real to me sometimes that I can feel the reindeer breathing on my cheek."
While I don't have a definitive answer yet on Diane's question, I'm still working on it. I have some leads, but need to contact some folks in the know. They haven't returned my calls in this busy season....they must be out shopping.
Happy Holidays!!
Photo fun

We had 3" of snow overnight. I have no idea what condition the hive is in. I think waiting to do the first inspection is the worst part of the whole package experience. I have a hive top feeder so I have not be able to peek inside to see if there is brood. I am just glad that they had some time to collect pollen and food from the syrup before the cold spell. I was thinking that if you installed a new package and it dropped to freezing overnight and they clustered, they would have no food, right?Great hive stands btw..
I might go ahead and use a pickle jar, since i am expecting my package this coming week and I live in central Ohio. Doesnt seem like the weather is letting up. Robo what type of cloth do you use for the lid of the jar, and do you just rubberband the cloth on there? :?
I had my back go out on me like that once--just as I was settling down on the throne. Took to Paramedics to get off. Talk about being caught with you pants down. The only time worse was when it happened stepping into the bath tub. I wnet down with a big splash. The Ambulance crew was all female, but I was into too much pain to care.
Robo what type of cloth do you use for the lid of the jar, and do you just rubberband the cloth on there? :?

It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard lands were scooped up and vines were planted throughout the county. A number of wineries emerged, from large conglomerates to small boutiques to cult classics. Cabernet Sauvignon is definitely the grape of choice here, with many winemakers also focusing on Bordeaux Blends. Whites are usually Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.

Fla. man to be executed in girl's slaying
Published: Wednesday, April 10, 2013 at 8:33 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 10, 2013 at 8:33 a.m.
STARKE, Fla. — A man who kidnapped and killed a 10-year-old Pinellas County girl more than 32-years ago is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection.
Barring any last minute stays, Larry Eugene Mann will begin carrying out his sentence at 6 p.m. on Wednesday.
Elisa Vera Nelson was last seen riding her bike to school. She had a note in her pocket explaining she was late because of a dentist appointment.
Mann kidnapped her, took her to an orange grove, cut her throat and then beat her head with a pole with a concrete base. He then went home and tried to kill himself, telling the responding police officers he had "done something stupid."
Then-Gov. Bob Graham signed Mann's first death warrant in 1986, but appeals dragged out his case.

Council of Europe's Anti-Racism Commission publishes conclusions on the implementation of its priority recommendations in respect of France, Poland and "the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia"
Strasbourg, 09.07.2013 – The European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) today published conclusions on the implementation of a number of priority recommendations made in its country reports on France, Poland and "the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" which had been released in 2010.
As part of the fourth round of ECRI's monitoring work, a new process of interim follow-up has been introduced with respect to up to three recommendations made in each of ECRI's country reports. Two years following the publication of each report, ECRI addresses a communication to the Government concerned asking what has been done in connection with the recommendations for which priority follow-up was requested.
On the basis of the response from the Government and information gathered from other sources, ECRI draws up its conclusions on the way in which its recommendations have been followed up. These conclusions concern only the priority recommendations and do not aim at providing a comprehensive analysis of all developments in the fight against racism and intolerance in the State concerned.
Through the new interim follow-up procedure, ECRI seeks to assist Council of Europe member States in fine-tuning their response to the recommendations made in its country reports.
The conclusions, including the country reports, are available here [France, Poland, "the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia"].
ECRI is a human rights body of the Council of Europe, composed of independent experts, which monitors problems of racism, xenophobia, antisemitism, intolerance and discrimination on grounds such as "race", ethnic/national origin, colour, citizenship, religion and language (racial discrimination); it prepares reports and issues recommendations to member States.

Call on Hershey and Cadbury to go Fair Trade for Easter!
At this time of year, there is arguably no more popular product than Cadbury Chocolate Easter Eggs.
And while Cadbury has demonstrated its commitment to ending forced child labor on the West African cocoa industry by selling Fair Trade certified chocolates in the UK, Canada, Ireland, Japan, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, the same cannot be said of Cadbury chocolate products in the United States.
In 1988, the Hershey Company purchased Cadbury's US chocolate business, including the exclusive rights to make and sell well-known brands like York Peppermint Patties, Cadbury Crème Eggs, and Cadbury Solid Milk Chocolate Bunnies.
Unfortunately, the Hershey Company refuses to meet the standard set by Cadbury's overseas operations, even though hundreds of thousands of US consumers have called on Hershey to raise the bar and remove forced child labor as an ingredient in its products. These same consumers are eager to purchase treats for their families that align with their values.
Join us in telling Cadbury and Hershey to sell Fair Trade chocolate in the US! Sign the Petition!

Laurent Koscielny does not want his Arsenal team to be the first in 15 years to miss out on the Champions League.
Arsène Wenger's side have third place in their own hands despite a 3-3 draw against Norwich at Emirates Stadium last weekend after both Tottenham and Newcastle dropped points.
Arsenal travel to West Brom on Sunday knowing that three points will guarantee their place in next season's competition and Koscielny knows just how crucial that is.
"We know it is very important to qualify for the Champions league," the Frenchman told Arsenal Player. "It is the best competition in Europe, and I want to play in it.
"Since Arsène Wenger was here, Arsenal have [almost] always qualified for the Champions League, so I don't want this to be the first team not to qualify.
"Every player wants to be in third place; it is very important for the squad, the Club, for everything. We must do it on the pitch to make sure we are in third place after Sunday's game."

AMES, Iowa — Iowa State University is conducting a nationwide survey of livestock producers' use of feed-related coproducts from ethanol production.
"The feedback gained from the survey will be used to help improve coproduct quality, which can help livestock producers with their feed costs and livestock performance," said Kurt Rosentrater, a professor of agricultural and biosystems engineering, who is leading the effort.
The survey is focused on the beef, dairy, swine and poultry sectors. It is being funded by a coalition consisting of the Renewable Fuels Association, the Distillers Grains Technology Council, and the Corn Utilization Councils from Iowa, Illinois and Nebraska.
Livestock producers are invited to take the survey online until June 19 at: http://humansciences.ethanolcoproducts.sgizmo.com/s3/

I have a Nikon Coolpix L23 which has frozen with the lens half-in, half out.
I had thought it had happened because the batteries had run out just as I turned the camera off - but have put new batteries in & turned it on/off, still stuck.
When I turn it on there are repeated short 'whirs' before the camera turns itself off again.

Try gently nudgg the extended(stuck) lens to one side by hand. (the side which had the gap.) Hear a click sound and the lense housing fell back in place? Then switch off and switche on again.

The first is hammer vs. striker
no difference in going bang - just is personnal preference - do you like an exposed hammer to cock it back to be easier to pull the silde - and other items to type
What would be better for general carry such as in a purse?
don't carry in a purse - CCW ON THE PERSON - how many times has you wife left her purse somewhere? similiar thread on this you can read
in a similar sized gun, how does the recoil between a.380 and 9mm compare
you said similiar.... so the recoil would be about twice - it's all related to energy vs weight of the gun -
i had an LCP - didn't like it - too hard on the hand - it hurt - doubt if you wife will like it - for 380 get the sig 238 - heavier and a bit fatter to absorb energy


text: My life-long love of colours, brush-strokes, designs, patterns and calligraphy began early on when, as a child, I was taught to paint by my mother (whose Art College training was brought to a halt in 1939). I later took Art 'A' Level, specialising in Graphic Design. I continued to paint as a past-time during my whole teaching career, and am indebted to tutors such as George Cox, Christine Allinson and Janet Brady, all professional artists. Since retiring from full-time teaching, I have had the good fortune to have been tutored by excellent local professional artists such as Jake Winkle, Alison C. Board, and Nina Squire; and currently, Deborah Chisman continues to encourage and inspire me. I am a member of CLAS, NHA and SAA and believe wholeheartedly that:" Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life". I now continue to paint more than ever from the "inner landscape", letting the paint and the painting take over …… I particularly like working with textured landscapes; and enjoy experimenting with a wide variety of mediums (watercolours, pastels, inks, gouache, acrylics, gesso etc) and a variety of techniques (modelling paste, lino-printing and mono-printing, water-colouring on textured rice paper, marbling etc). Always passionate about Handwriting, and a Calligraphy enthusiast, I have also designed an original Pictographic Alphabet, which appears from time to time in my paintings.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I own a P40 (1979) and there is a balsa stiffener for the hull, however it is added over the inside layer of the hull material. The hull itself is a fiberglass lay-up. In other words, the balsa core layup is added inside the regular 1/2 inch or more of fiberglass, and is used to add stiffness to the hull. That said, the balsa is far removed from the potential for osmotic blistering impacts. It has always surveyed in perfect condition.
Pearson 39-2 - balso coring and other
I am original owner of a 1989 Pearson 39-2 - hull 41. The later versions like mine have a single head with shower, yanmar 35hp under the sink, large nav desk and finer woodwork than the earlier -2's. It does have balsa below the waterline and has shown no problems to date. Nor any blistering (they were delivered with "Blisterguard" when new). The glass work was done by folks who knew what they were doing back then. It is a comfortable boat, easy to sail, motors very well, has plenty of room, is fast, and built well with heavy scantlings. It is versatile enough to single hand, competitively race on wednesday nights, and cruise away for a month or more. All in all it has been a good choice for our family of 6 over the years. She looks nearly as good now as when she was first commissioned. Every time I go to a boat show and look at new 38'-40' boats I come back appreciating what I have even more.
P39-2 has balsa cored bottom below waterline
As a happy owner of P39-2 hull#12 manufactured in 1987 I can confirm that my boat has balsa cored bottom below the waterline. I can also confirm that it has NO problems with any blistering but have to admit that the previous owner that bought this boat new had put antiprotect 2000 early in her life and just 2 years ago I redid my bottom applying more interprotect 2000 before anitifouling paint.
I also have to say that last year I survived substantial grounding with bashing against rocky bottom for approx 6 hours in 2 ft wave heeled about 45deg. I thought that after that my boat will be a writeoff but after carefully checking the floor-boards and tabbing on them I have to say that amazingly there was NO damage except to the tip of the lead keel and tip of the rudder. This boat is like a rock and sails like a charm. I am convinced that the cored bottom allowed such grounding to cause no damage. I also know that few other boats that grounded at the same place had never sailed again.
If anybody is interested in more info on P39-2 please give me a holler.
|The P 39-2 does have some balsa core below the waterline but not in the areas of thru hulls or other holes (shaft,speed log,etc.). It also has vinylester resin below the waterline to prevent blistering.
I have an 1983 Pearson 34 and it is cored below the waterline. All of the thru-hulls are mounted in solid glass areas so that if one were to leak it can not get into the core. The survey did not show any wet areas at all. If the hull is dry, there is not a problem in my opinion.
Mr. Pascoe certainly does not like cored hulls. Of course, most of his disparaging articles are about powerboats and hulls whose outer skin is not thick enough to withstand the pounding those hulls take plus the indiscriminate drilling of thru-hull holes without proper treatment to protect the core.
I would bet my Pearson is better constructed than a SeaRay, but that's just me.
Core is not going to rot in the absence of water. So, if it's in good condition now and simple steps are taken to prevent water intrusion, then you're fine. IT IS NOT A BIG DEAL, though it will make the boat lighter, faster and stiffer.
Coring is a larger issue in decks due to the many fastener holes and the often careless installation of hardware.
My boat is a 1981 hull and the core is as good as the day it was installed.

I know an attentive owner of a mid-80s Hinckley of that age, certainly a boat from a "good enough" builder, but recoring the entire hull came along anyway...sort of like, do you feel lucky today?
Well the verdict is in - The Pearson 39-2 IS BALSA CORED BELOW THE WATERLINE
Well, after very careful inspection of the Pearson 39-2 that was sworn to be fiberglass only below the waterline - we found that there is in fact balsa sandwiched between fiberglass below the waterline. This was found after removing the draws under the V-birth and it was clearly evident that along the hull from about 3 feet from the deck joint to the bottom of the hull there is balsa. Most of the rest of the access areas of the boat had carpeting glued to the hull so we could not see the balsa. Only under the V-birth and then by inspecting the sail locker on the port side of the cockpit could we detect the tell tale bulge of the balsa. In the V-birth the squares of Balsa were clearly evident. So - thats the truth of it. Now it will be critical to determine if it is worth pursuing this vessel knowing that Balsa is below the waterline. What do you all think - in 1987 was the technology of manufacture good enough with good owner maintenance to generate a worthy boat with balsa below the waterline?
More on the Pearson 39-2 Balsa or No Balsa
I found an article by Jack Hornor in SpinSheet from March 2006. Jack is a Surveyor in Md. he stated:
The Pearson 39s hull is a solid lay-up of fiberglass and resin, while decks and cabin structures use a composite of fiberglass and balsa wood core. The quality of the fiberglass work is quite good for a production boat; attachments are neat and well-finished.
The present owner also swears that the hull is solid Fiberglass. However I am not completely convinced so I will definitely check out the hull for evidence of core.
Thanks to all. I am sure that at there are plenty of wonderful balsa cored hulls out there but for cruising with my family where we will be in areas that have both plenty of coral heads and few good yards, I think I want good solid fiberglass under my crew. The other issues with the P39-2 is the centerboard and the pseudo-spade rudder but that is another posting.
All the best
I'll look back thru a pile of my stuff, I doubt the 39-2 (or many) boats have coring below the waterline. (now watch, 50 people will say "MINE IS")
I've had to recore parts of the deck, but the hull is sound. The boat was built in 1981. I agree with what Paul says about coring. By the way, the J30 was built by Pearson (JBoats designs boats and outsources the builds).

Movie Review: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
20/12/2013 , 4:44 PM by Meghan Woods
We've all daydreamed, but Walter Mitty has taken home the gold medal in the sport since James Thurber's writing brought him to life in 1939. Now, Ben Stiller gives us a modern take on the dreamer.
Stiller's Mitty represents the everyday modern American worker. His life isn't terrible, but he can only dream of what could be. This Mitty has held down the same job, Negative Assets Manager at Life magazine, for decades. Suddenly, Life is about to change, by closing down the magazine and heading to an online format. Yes, there are analogies here representing Life passing you by.
Mitty dreams of the adventure that he helps publish in the magazine. He also dreams of Cheryl (Kristen Wiig), the new office worker who has caught his eye. With his world about to be turned upside down by his new boss, Mitty can fade into history, or he can embrace a life that will keep him well and truly in the present.
Legendary photographer Sean O'Connell (Sean Penn) sends Mitty the negative for the final cover of Life. When it goes missing, Mitty has a choice… become redundant or become the story. He chooses the later, and heads off to Greenland in search of the iconic image.
Ben Stiller directs this film, and takes it beyond the comedy of his last forays in this field. The film certainly has its lighter moments, but there's more depth and drama. It's incredibly shot, and Stiller's Mitty takes us on some wild adventures. At the heart of this film is seeing Mitty let go of his dreams, because he no longer needs them. His realities become far more exciting than anything he could possibly imagine, and there's a poignant twist to the end.
Stepping inside Mitty's world is a really enjoyable way to escape your own life for 114 minutes. Dare to dream. 3.5 stars.
