I've been riding motorcycles since 1975.
Since then, I have bought 16 motorcycles; 10 Japanese and 6 BMW motorcycles.
Of those, I still own the:
- 1986 BMW R80 G/S Paris Dakar (bought used)
- 1990 BMW R100 GS (bought new)
- 2003 BMW R1150 GS Adventure (bought new and now my Alps touring motorcycle)
- 2002 Kawasaki KLR 650 (bought new)
Other BMWs I have owned:
- 1963 BMW R27 (nice to look at, but you can't really do much on a 250)
- 1980 BMW R65 (my 1995 to 2004 Alps touring motorcycle)
- 2004 BMW R1150 GS Adventure (my 2005 to 2009 Alps touring motorcycle till it was written off by a cell phone yapping teenager idiot)
I've done a few tours on this continent, but the vast majority of my touring has taken place in Europe, especially in the Alps which I have toured annually since 1995.
When it comes to motorcycling, Europe is hard to beat for countless reasons; attitudes towards motorcyclists are far better, the roads and scenery are near impossible to beat and the food and drink...well lets not even try to compare. I have yet to even get on two wheel locally this year...and it is August already...I'm enjoying my Porsche Carrera too much I guess.
Kaiserjaegerweg, Italy...
I like working in my reasonably well set-up workshop/garage where I create stuff and maintain my vehicles.
Future plans...early retirement and more riding in far away places.
... by the term "Beaten Path"
In my mind, it's not necessarily off-road but the paved road less taken.
I just recently bought a 2001 F650GS to include with my 2007 Ural Patrol--which is basically a distant cousin to the BMW.
So now when it's not snowing I can ride on two wheels! Hmmm. And now I can't figure out how to upload a photo of the F650GS. I swear I'm not playing favorites here!

Howdy Folks. I bought my First BMW about 1.5 years ago. It is a R1100GS. I like it... ALOT!!! I almost parted with it this winter to buy a "newer" one, then I relized my 1100 was sorted out perfect for me! I live in Pittsburgh and am currently working on a new Charter Club called "gs dirtbagz", check it out yo... www.meetup.com/gsdirtbagz
Now just cause im a showoff!

Hello All,
My name is Rod Anderson and I live in El Cajon, CA.
I started riding back in the mid '70's on anything I could borrow for a few minutes and bought a used '74 Honda CB360G in December of '74.
I traded that for a new '77 RD400 Yamaha which I rode for about 10 years in Colorado, Connecticut and San Diego until trading it on a leftover '83 Yamaha 650 Seca Turbo in the fall of '87.
I put 58K+ miles on the turbo until I retired from the Navy in Jan. of '96 and took a job that required me to carry tools. The motorcycle mostly stayed in the garage until the summer of '99 when work took us to New Jersey. I sold the motorcycle because I didn't think NJ was anywhere I would want to ride a bike. As it turns out the weather in NJ was much more suitable than in Colorado where I started riding, but there are those crazy NJ and NY drivers...
At the end of 04 we moved back to San Diego and I started to get the itch for another motorcycle, but it just didn't make sense until the boss decided to move the office into downtown, which put an end to carpooling with the wife.
After a nearly 15 year absence I started looking for a motorcycle. Shaft drive was a must and a good sized fairing to keep the cold off.
I considered the Yamaha FJ1300 and the Kawasaki Concours 14, but they haven't been out long enough for there to be many on the used market at the price I was willing to pay. I wasn't certain I would really enjoy riding again after so long. I had ridden my son's Suzuki DR650 and GS550, but neither of them really appealed to me.
I was looking on the internet and I noticed that the local BMW store had a 90 something K75S. I went in on a Tuesday afternoon to test ride it and some rascal had beat me to it. He put a deposit on it and I didn't get the chance to ride it.
On the following Saturday I went in to see if, just perhaps, he had backed out of the deal and I could get a test ride. Not only had he not backed out, he was there picking up the bike. Drat!
They did have an '02 K1200RS in a really pretty blue, but more money than I really wanted to spend and much heavier than I wanted and a bit more sporting riding position than I wanted, but man, did I like the color. I debated for 20 minutes or so and then asked if I could take it for a ride. I was hooked. I put a deposit down and finally took it home on Tuesday, February 1st.
I rode it 4350 miles in a bit over 3 and a half months, then dropped it off at a shop for it's 60K service and went away with the wife for a long weekend up at Crater Lake.
I had a voice mail from the shop late Saturday afternoon asking me to call, something about information about my bike. Cell phone coverage isn't very good up in that area, so with one thing and another, it was Tuesday before I called.
Saturday, after doing the service the mechanic had it out on a test ride and drove it into the back of a truck. The fairing, windshield and instrument panel were completely smashed.
To make a long story short, the shop's insurance carrier said the bike was a total loss and I have replaced the RS with an '01 R1100RT.
I've had the RT 3 weeks today and have put just over 1900 miles on it. It's not as smooth as the RS, but more comfortable and I'm very happy with it so far.
'74 Honda CB360, '77 Yamaha RD400, '83 Yamaha 650 Seca Turbo, '02 BMW K1200RS,
My name is Steve Ayers. I bought my BMW R1100R from my best friend from School (Elementary - High School). He had wrecked it at 70 MPH without a helmet so his loving wife suggested he sell it. I replaced the Windshield (Thank you Jimmy Hayes) and the turn signal (thanks again Jimmy Hayes). Jimmy is the local BMW man. I decided to work on it myself then trailered it to North Dallas BMW to fix it. Thank you George. I love my R1100R. My daily commuter bike is a Yamaha TW200. When I want to let the wind blow through my hair (arm hair as I wear a helmet ALWAYS) I ride the BMW to work. It is nice in Texas when someone asks what kind of bike you ride and get wide eyed when you say BMW. Not everyone likes to kill their posture on a Harley.

I became interested in motorbikes, in the late fifties, when our paper boy had a motorized bicycle. Then a neighbor rode over on a Cushman (sp) to give me a ride. While at H.S an underclassman rode up on a Triumph, not sure of the displacement, and did a wheelie and almost biffed the pavement. I was definitely hooked.
I discovered my nephew had purchased a motorcycle and I went over to look it over and ask to take it for a ride. He said, "sure". I never shifted or clutched in the manner one does on a motorcycle but I got use to it in a few miles.
Forward to 1966 and I bought a small displacement motorbike to get off base and ride the beach roadways. I met a girl and we took a few short rides until I sold the bike. That same girl rides with me today.
In 1979 I bought a CB 100 to ease the wear and tear on my '78 Thunderbird, four barrel carbs and all. The 100 was perfect for getting down the road a few miles to work and back.
My children got older and larger, so I bought a CX500 and rode it for a year. My bride and I took a few rides on it but the add-on fairing didn't satisfy me, nor the high spin of the tach.
I bought a new Shadow 500 and realized that that bike was not much more comfortable than the CB 100. I sold it.
A high school kid came to my house selling magazines. It was a money making project for him so I felt I had to ease his pain and looked over his list of possibilities. I took delivery of Motorcyclist Magazine. In one of the issues was the first K-model BMW's. I was hooked, big time.
I bought a slightly used K100 LT '85. I finally got my bride to take a long ride with me to western South Dakota. It was very nice and she became enthusiastic for future rides and even suggested we get "outfitted" for our future rides with boots, jackets, rainsuits, proper helmets (with intercoms), and proper gloves. From my note you can tell I didn't have those things already.
Fast forward fifteen years and we are at Bike Week Sturgis South Dakota and we had just gotten off of a ride on a K1200 LTI. I was stunned at what came from my brides lips, after I had wondered aloud about buying just one more "touring class" motorcycle? She said, 'this one is really comfortable, perhaps this model might be the one for us?' I smiled broadly and stuttered out, "yes, good idea". That November I rode to Sioux City Iowa to pick up the ride I have today.
We have made several long rides since moving to western South Dakota: To Tenton, On for the MOA international rally, twice to Oregon and once to southern Illinois, and a few lesser trips to family events.
Yes, the weight and size of the beast has caused me to put it down, at slow speeds, in a turning mode, twice with her on it. she has never like that sudden stop after sliding off the seat.
I guess, if I get to the point where I cannot hold it up anymore, I'll opt for a CAN-AM.
Ride'um if you got'um
Sorry to have missed you on your pass thru. I live in Hot Springs and could have accompanied you to Gillette. However, I have not faithfully checked this site for posts or other notes.
I trust your ride to Gillette was a happy one? I hope you took a ride over the Bear Tooth Pass while you were in the country?
Off road stuff is not for me

Find Gresham, Oregon utilities. Utilities provide information on public services including electricity (power and light companies), oil and gas (home heating and cooking), waste and sewage companies.
Gresham City Water Resources Division 1333 Northwest Eastman Parkway Gresham, OR
Portland General Electric Co 335 Northeast Roberts Avenue Gresham, OR
Gresham Utilities are business enterprises that provide essential public services including electricity, natural gas, water, and sewer services in Gresham, OR. Because of the infrastructure required to deliver services, a monopoly is often the most economical way for an utility service to operate. Gresham Public Utility Companies serve all of the customers for a particular service in Gresham.You may contact Utilities for questions about:
Utilities in Gresham, Oregon may be publicly owned enterprises or private companies. In both cases, the primary source of revenue supporting the Utility is user fees paid by customers. In the case of publicly owned Utilities, the assets of the Utility are owned by the Gresham Government Utilities Department, but it operates as a self-sustaining public enterprise supported by its own revenues rather than relying on taxes to fund operations.Public Utilities Commissions in Gresham, Oregon
In Oregon, Utilities are regulated by the Multnomah County Public Services Commissions or Public Utilities Commission. Public Services Commissions are necessary when monopolies exist or in cases where competition is very limited, to ensure that Gresham consumers receive safe, reliable, and reasonably priced services from competent and financially viable companies. Gresham Utilities must receive approval for the rates they charge and they are also required to demonstrate to the Gresham Public Services Commission that they have plans to maintain an infrastructure capable of supporting current and future demand for services.Electric Utilities
Gresham Electric Utilities are the most likely to function as a hybrid of monopoly and competitive services. Only one system for transmitting and delivering electricity to customers is feasible in a given service area such as Multnomah County, OR. Therefore, transmission and distribution of electricity operates as a monopoly and customers do not have a choice when selecting their Gresham electric power company. However, the electricity in the Gresham electric grid may come from numerous suppliers.Water Utilities
Water Utility Services in Gresham provide potable tap water directly to residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional customers through a distribution system.Sewer Utilities
Gresham Sewer Service Companies receive wastewater from customers via sanitary sewers at a wastewater treatment plant. The Sewer Utility treats the wastewater to reduce pollutants before it is released into Multnomah County waterways.Natural Gas Utilities
Gresham Natural Gas Companies are essentially local distribution companies that deliver natural gas, received from large capacity interstate or intrastate pipelines, to individual customers through small diameter distribution pipelines.

Firefox Extension Vulnerability Discovered
A doctoral candidate at Indiana University has discovered a vulnerability in many of the most popular Firefox extensions. The attack requires that other significant compromises exist on the networkspecifically that the user's DNS server be compromisedand at that point Firefox can be exploited to run attack code in the context of the logged-on user.
Every Firefox extension has a URL hard-coded into it at which it checks for updates. Many check back on the https://addons.mozilla.org site from which add-ons are downloaded, but many, including many of the most popular, check on their own sites, often without the benefit of https.Therefore, if the user's DNS server is compromised, the extension can be tricked into checking the wrong siteone spoofing the standard update address for the extensionfor updates, and install them. Security mechanisms in Firefox for dealing with this situation, such as code signing, are weak.
The easiest answer would be for vendors to use SSL for updates, which you can expect to see starting with new updates. In the meantime, the researcher recommends uninstalling a long list of toolbars and extensions, including "Google Toolbar, Google Browser Sync, Yahoo Toolbar, Del.icio.us Extension, Facebook Toolbar, AOL Toolbar, Ask.com Toolbar, LinkedIn Browser Toolbar, Netcraft Anti-Phishing Toolbar, PhishTank SiteChecker and a number of others, mainly commercial extensions."
How could your DNS become compromised? It could happen on public wireless networks, through a compromise of your home router, or many other scenarios, though this is not a common mode of attack.

Lots Of Pre-Race Shows But No "Victory Lane" Again
We have to begin this pre-race programming post with a picture of the bus race champion from Lowe's Motor Speedway. Last season it was Jimmy Spencer, but this year he was crushed by fellow SPEED announcer Wendy Venturini. She held-off John Roberts, Rutledge Wood, Spencer, Kenny Wallace and Hermie Sadler to claim the victory.
It will be NASCAR Now on ESPN2 at 10AM Eastern Time that kicks-off the Saturday pre-race action for one hour. This show features Ryan Burr and Nicole Manske hosting with multiple ESPN reporters checking-in from the Chicagoland track. NASCAR Now has bounced back from a tough Tuesday show on Richard Petty to recover quite well with wall-to-wall coverage of the Tony Stewart announcement and reactions.
Fans will have to take a break as RaceDay on SPEED does not come along until 4:30PM. SPEED does have Tradin' Paint at 3PM with USA Today reporter Nate Ryan as the media guest along with host John Roberts and regular panelist Kyle Petty. Larry McReynolds brings his NASCAR Performance show to the air at 3:30PM and Adam Alexander hosts NASCAR In A Hurry at 4PM.
Roberts then comes along with his big cast of characters for RaceDay at 4:30PM. This week at Chicagoland the program will have Casey Mears, Carl Edwards and Jay Frye who is the GM at Red Bull Racing. Venturini's Real Deal segment will be taking a look at Brian Vickers. News will include a review of Stewart's announcement, the most recent NASCAR penalties and a video highlight package of the bus race.
TNT is up next with NASCAR On TNT Live! hosted by Marc Fein. This season, Fein has finally gotten himself comfortable with NASCAR and being joined on the stage by Kyle Petty and McReynolds really has helped. This show will feature Richard Petty on his anniversary week of 50 years in NASCAR. Tony Stewart will also be along to update his 2009 team news.
Popular CNN Headline News anchor Robin Meade will be acting as a race official and riding in the pace car, so there is no doubt viewers will see her during the pre-race show as TNT and CNN are sister networks in the Turner Broadcasting family. Fans may remember Meade taking a ride on Wally's World a while back and loving every minute of it. She seems to be slowly becoming a NASCAR fan.
Allstate Countdown to Green is next at 7:30PM with Bill Weber and Wally Dallenbach up in the TNT booth hosting the program. This is the final race for TNT, so look for Weber to talk about the overall TV package and his experience this season. This program leads into race coverage at 8PM.
As usual, SPEED is going to hold the airing of Victory Lane until 8PM on Sunday night. If you feel strongly about this topic, I would urge you to contact SPEED through the contact link on the SPEEDtv.com website. Perhaps, next year the network will make a commitment to the fans instead of the schedule.

How many more Saturday night races are there this season? Come on SPEED, give us fans what we want. I rarely watch VL when it has been almost a day since the race ended.

Yes, no Victory Lane. After Daytona on Saturday night, watched all I could after the race. But as I usually watch VL on Sunday night after a Sunday race. This time I did not, I had by then read, listened to all I needed by the time VL was on Sunday night. If the reair of it was or could be on a Sunday morning after the race that would be ok. When I say Sunday morning, anytime before noon. But then again I always could record it if it was on after the Saturday night race live and watch it when I want on Sunday. Just set recording time for sixty or so minutes.

Hey JD are you going to do a post on Trackside, I just watched and it was fantastic, all Richard Petty and everything that ESPN's show was not.
I unfortunatly will have to DVR all of the pre race and race (attending a wedding) so it's a good thing that VL isn't on until tomorrow or I wouldn't know when to set the DVR for since it would depend on the finish time.

I normally do not post on Trackside just because it is the same formula each race weekend with one or two guest.
I did put up an advancer, sending folks over to watch it. You would be surprised how much email I am getting with people asking "who is Richard Petty?" Lots of them also have no idea of Kyle's past.
We really need more classic and historic NASCAR programming on both SPEED and ESPN Classic. The past is slipping away.

can i get an "AMEN!"? one of my major complaints about corporate nascar is the reluctance to showcase its own history. we get bits & pieces but so many of the pioneers of our sport are unknown. and the fact that anyone could email you about "who is this richard petty?" is testament to that failure.
i've said it repeatedly: these men and women who created nascar are getting older and will not be with us for much longer. we need to get their stories captured in a systematic way and we need to get their voices heard by today's fans. so much of where we are now came form those who raced and owned teams and ran the sport before today and their stories are largely unknown.
we've tossed around the idea of an "all-nascar " channel and some felt there wouldn't be enough programming available. i believe that, if some media group makes the time to interview these men and women, there will be an abundance of programming! the stories are fascinating, the voices authentic and honest and we should do everything possible to capture all of that now.

SPEED keeps missing the bus with the putting off of VL this season. Sorry just too much PRE race before the race. so don't watch but bits and pieces.
Shocked that any regulars here do not know who Richard Petty is??? My gosh. I wonder if that's generational thing. I have only been watching NASCAR since 2004 but know most all the well known big names of the history...Jr Johnson, Cale Yarborough, Allison Brothers, (sp?) Harry Gant, Petty, Earnhardt Sr., etc. But I love history in this sport and enjoy hearing/reading about it. Interviewing the ones still left to listen to the old days is great which is why I had hoped HUMPY's show would continue (with less gimmicks like 'Humpy Cam' and interaction between modern drivers and the guys that raced back when it was hard work and much less money and sponsoring going on....and more colorful characters.
I LOVED this TRACKSIDE. One of the best ever. The Michigan fan crowd was quieter, the guys did not goof off or waste time with stupid stuff and just let the King talk. It was FANTASTIC. I enjoyed hearing how sometimes they had no fancy paint jobs on the cars if there were two races in the same week...and how he and the drivers would drive with wet rags in their mouth to keep the dust and grit out (especially on the dirt track days)
I like the guys on there but had missed some shows and the show with Dario Franchitti was just painful with the stupid antics forced on him with the guys and Guitar Hero and graphics on my screen for SEVERAL MINUTES that had nothing to do with racing. Dario lost his job and so did a bunch of Ganassi drivers.....been nice to hear where Dario's mind was that night. THANKFULLY that had been written here and I got a heads up for the repeat showing.
I like Trackside when they let the guests talk. Frankly, I like the guys on the show ok but there are too many cooks. If you want the show to be those guys talking about things, that is fine. But when you jam in a guest or two or one of the Legends like Petty, it's hard to let the focus be on the guest.
The boys did a good job of letting the King be the focus. Well done.
Sorry for the manifesto. still say VL and NP should be on Monday night before the Twisted Twin. As in backtwist, or back flip or however one describes the sequence. LOVE the guys on the show, but :-)

I am wondering if NASCAR is doing this so that we will watch the Jack Daniels show on-line following the race. I watched it last week and it is not a bad show.
- July 12, 2008 at 12:36 PM

I will let SPEED know that VL needs to be shown after the race, not the next night.
However, as long as Kyle B keeps winning, I will not watch it. It's bad enough during the race to watch the Kyle Busch Show.

I would love to see a new post-race show that strictly plays the FULL feed of the post-race driver Q&A in the media center. No panel, no commentary, no opinion - just good some closure from a hard day of racing. Fans, including myself, will eat this up. Right now after the race, I tune into NASCAR.com for their Jack Daniel's post-race show, but I would much rather watch it off the tv rather than the computer plus those tv personalities are bozo's. That Q&A seems largely untapped. ESPNEWS carries some of the post-race conference but it gets bogged down with other sports news and is often played to us strung out over 2 hours.

My theory is that when the total amount of pre-race programming (four and a half hours) is long than most races...there is a problem there.

I am still very disappointed that RaceDay has been pushed back - and that V-Lane is not on after the race on Sat. nights. It would appear that SPEED must have a rule that for every good programming decision they make, they must make a dumb one.
JD, someone should do a NASCAR history show with oh say Eli Gold interviewing the giants from NASCAR's past like Richard P, Junior Johnson, the Allisons, Barney Hall, Ken Squier, Ned Jarrett, etc.
When he was unceremoniously retired, I thought Humpy said he was going to be doing some shows for SPEED, which I presumed meant more editions of The Humpy Show.

Well it sounds like Trackside was a pretty good show and we missed it. I hope RaceDay changes Jimmy Spencer and Kenny Wallace next year they are getting tiring. I enjoy Hermie Sadler but when he talks he seems like he's yelling but I like his questions.

That is cool everybody has a hat like the King. what a guy!!
I also loved the BBaker piece....if only SPEED would do more shows on these guys and PROMOTE it...many would love to watch during the week. Monday night TWIN just BEGS for some NASCAR wraparound shows.
I missed most of RD..just too long and missed the bus race darn it..oh, well. Got to see Tomy and Joe...oh, wait,, that was TNT?? lol.
That was good, too but I did notice Joe twiddling his thumbs a lot..wonder if that's a habit or body language one should read something into.
Loooking forward to the last race on tnt..and plenty of promo's for one of my fave shows...sigh
This is a compliment but so far, BW has not made me want to take a hammer to my tv set this TNT season. ;)

Last year, I skipped about half of the NVL shows ... This year, I've already skipped 6 of them ... IF the current trend of domination by one driver/team continues, I may just skip NVL completely ...
The same thing can be said about Trackside ... They wind up having the same guests over & over & over every season ... Mix it up ... Get some of the crew chiefs or owners on the show that aren't the HMS / JGR / RFR / Ganassi guys ... How about the guys in the Nationwide & Craftsman Truck series that get little to none tv exposure because they're being overshadowed by the kid from Vegas or "Sliced Bread" ??
I know the tv pre-race shows are trying to get people hyped up for the race ... just like at the track they'll have concerts or whatever ... But, living on the West Coast, it's a bit hard to watch a NN show at 7am when the race doesn't start til 4pm ... It's hard to watch NN at 7am when the race starts at 11am ...

Tried download twice but didn\'t work. Could be because I\'m trying to read Canadian BSB charts from C.H.S. instead of the NOAA charts from the U.S.A. I thought they\'d be the same. Now I can\'t find it to uninstall it although there is a record of it being downloaded in my downloads file.
Can\'t review as I opted out before trying to utilize it.. Perhaps another time.
yeah, didn\'t work. wanted chart registry key. DK what that is
how to create a bsb,kap maps??????????????ok i read the bsb files and?????what?i need some software to create bsb files..tnx dimitrios
Opinion I have not been able to download any of the maps as bsb or kap files. Tried uninstalling arcview 9.3 several times. The download of your plugin does not install properly. I also bought and ran the registry repair progam by Uniblue that was suggested as a cure for this. I have spent a day and a half trying to get an NOAA map in a usable form and have not succeeded. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 715-572-7218 flila+mssincorporated.com
Simple & works Very simple to use allowed me to just drag and drop KAP files onto photoshop. I was a bit confused at first because it didn't allow me to open the BSB files but then I realized that these didn't actually contain the images.Someone else commented that the resolution was not good.I don't understand this because it opens the charts at exactly the same resolution they are saved in.Any change in resolution would be done in Photoshop.All in all it does exactly what it says it will do.I would definitely recommend this plugin!

Additional Info
About the artist:
Sara Meadows hand-crafts her lovable "Balloon People" and "Balloon Animals" in her studio near Kennett Square, Pennsylvania. Each of her ceramic sculptures starts as a slab of red clay which is either wrapped around an inflated balloon, draped over a hump mold, or rolled up into a cone to create a variety of forms. These simple shapes are then transformed by Sara into a broad range of subjects including barn animals, cats and dogs and dragons. Two kiln firings and the application of stoneware glazes complete the transition from clay to finished artwork. Pieces can be displayed outside but should be protected from freezing conditions. Sara particularly enjoys making custom balloon people to reflect an individual's profession, hobbies, school affiliation, pets or whatever.
Hand-crafted in the U.S.A.

Don't let the cold stop you
With the cold fronts beginning to reach our area in greater numbers, the waters in our inland lakes and bays have cooled. The hoards of baitfish and shrimp that the north winds push from the marshes and bayous have mostly all gone out by now. With that situation, the anglers that are knowledgeable about fishing the cold water will be exposed to some really big fish. Speckled trout and redfish are the more available varieties, but the flat fish do show up from time to time.
Usually there are fewer anglers that pursue the fish during the colder months. That leaves a better selection for the hearty folks that enjoy going after the larger fish. Since speckled trout are by far the more sought after species, I contacted a true local expert on the subject of catching the larger speckled trout during cold water periods.
Capt. Darren Guernsey is a purist when it comes to speck fishing. In fact, he has taken the time to write a book that I have mentioned before. The book is titled "Turning Tides," and believe it or not, it is sub-titled "No Wimpy Fish." Capt Guernsey does not feel that it is necessary to keep his many experiences and consistent success in reading the water and catching big speckled trout a secret. That will allow the readers to perhaps acquire some helpful information that could lead to big fish success. By the way, Guernsey once held the Texas record for redfish
I admitted to the captain that I had experienced limited winter fishing success for speckled trout. I've spent little time and effort in pursuit of them, choosing instead to go where I had caught specks earlier. I rarely even changed the lure selection from warmer water to colder water times. It would seem that for consistently catching the larger fish, according to Guernsey, the bait or lure should be much larger than those typically used. For instance, for early morning or near dusk topwater action, a lure 7 or 8 inches long or even longer will produce. Once the topwater action slows or stops, then a lead-head jig with a 7 or 8 inch plastic tail attached should be used. Keep in mind that live bait such as croaker or mullet will be a great choice for the big fish since those are the natural prey of those outsize specks.
So what is a major consideration during the wintertime? The captain says it's the temperature/oxygen ratio. The colder water holds the available oxygen better than the warmer water. That's why it is a good idea to begin in the shallower water early mornings. When the water begins to warm even a degree or two, then the fish will likely head to a more comfortable area. Speaking of comfortable, the specks along with all of the other fish are cold blooded. Their body temperature will be the same as the water temperature. During the colder times, their metabolism slows; therefore, anglers should fish more slowly. If you believe that you are fishing the lure slow enough, slow it down some more.
Areas around the shorelines that have sandy bottoms will reflect the sunlight. That will allow it to remain cooler for a longer period of time. The shell bottom is much the same. Mud bottoms will absorb the sunlight and be warmer. The only problem with the mud bottom is during windy times the water will become off color. In such cases it is important to use lures that are darker colored. These contrast with the murky water and make it easier for the speckled trout to see. Don't hesitate to use or noisy lure in off-color water. Clear water seems to dictate brighter colors. Most experienced big-fish anglers are not chiseled-in-stone color conscious. Bright or dark seem to cover most situations.
Whenever the fish are not in the shallows, then by all means head for deeper water. Any type of structure may be the ticket to fish catching during cold weather. Keep in mind that even in deep water, the fish may not be on the bottom. Guernsey has found that according to where the bait is the, oxygen is there also, and where the salinity is better is where the lunkers will be.
As I mentioned early on, the captain says that the lures are made to appear as the food fish that the predators feed upon. The key words are "made to appear." The real live baitfish or shrimp are what the big fish are after. That means that live bait will be superior to fakes nearly every time.
These tips are only a few tricks that Captain Guernsey shared with me. The speckled trout fishing in "Turning Tides" is much more in detail then there was room here. You can order the book at www.nowimpyfish.com.

Disney, Walt
Walt Disney (Walter Elias Disney) (dĬz´nē), 1901–66, American movie producer and pioneer in animated cartoons, b. Chicago. He grew up in Missouri, in the small town of Marceline and in Kansas City. He moved to Chicago in 1917, where he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts and began (1920) his career as a cartoonist making animated film advertisements. In 1928 Disney created the character Mickey Mouse in the silent film Plane Crazy. That same year Mickey also appeared in Steamboat Willie, a short that initiated the concept of making a separate cartoon for each animated movement. Instantly famous, the film was also Disney's first attempt to use sound (his own voice for Mickey), and it was followed by many other shorts starring Mickey and his animal sidekicks. An international success, by 1935 Mickey Mouse cartoons had been viewed by some 500 million moviegoers. Disney also experimented with the use of music (The Skeleton Dance), the portrayal of speed (The Tortoise and the Hare), three-dimensional effects (The Old Mill), and the use of color (one of the earliest color shorts was 1933's Three Little Pigs).
Disney produced the first feature-length cartoon, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1938), which took three years to complete. Additional features included Pinocchio (1939), Fantasia (1940), Dumbo (1941), and Bambi (1942). In Song of the South (1946), he merged live actors and animated figures. During World War II, Disney's studio produced cartoons for the armed services as training tools and morale builders.
Beginning with Treasure Island in 1951, Disney added live-action movies to his output, while still producing such animated classics as Alice in Wonderland (1951) and Peter Pan (1953). Thereafter, his studio produced several animal stories (e.g., Greyfriars Bobby, 1960), musical fantasies (e.g., Mary Poppins, 1964), and television programs, beginning in the early 1950s with the weekly Disneyland and its famous Mouseketeers. Disney and his productions received numerous Academy and other awards during his lifetime. After his death, the Disney studios remained active, diversified, and ultimately became enormously successful. In the early 1980s, they began producing films for adults.
Disneyland, a huge theme park in Anaheim, Calif., which in part celebrates America's hometowns and small-town values, was opened by Disney in 1955. Disney's California Adventure, a second, smaller theme park in Anaheim, opened adjacent to Disneyland in 2001. An even bigger park, Walt Disney World, opened near Orlando, Fla., in 1971 as a theme park and resort, and Epcot Center, Disney-MGM Studios, and Animal Kingdom have since been added there. Disneyland parks have also opened near Tokyo (1983), in Marne-la-Vallée, near Paris (1992), in Hong Kong (2005), and in Shanghai (2016).

A 2-year-old girl was left in a car overnight outside a sports bar in Bristol, Connecticut, while the mother spent the evening in the hospital because she was intoxicated, police said.
Police arrested Kelsey James, 22, of Bristol, after learning that her daughter was left in her car for more than five hours.
Employees said that James seemed drunk when she arrived City Sports Grill in Bristol on Friday and they refused to serve her any drinks.
"I was talking to her a little bit, went and grabbed her a water, told her to stay there and I came back and she was gone," Courtney Lausier, a server at the bar, said.
Bar employees called police, who responded to the 177 Farmington Avenue bar at about 11:56 p.m. on Friday to investigate a report of a woman found sleeping at the bar who was "intoxicated and incapacitated," according to police.
She was taken to Bristol Hospital for treatment and to be evaluated. When she woke up at about 5:20 a.m., she asked hospital staff where her baby was, so the hospital contacted police.
Police found her 2-year-old daughter sleeping in the mother's car at the sports bar parking lot, where she was left while her mother was in the bar and then the hospital, according to police.
The baby was taken to Bristol Hospital to be evaluated and is okay, police said. She is being kept in the hospital until Department of Children and Families representatives arrive in response to the incident.
Police charged James with risk of injury and leaving a child unsupervised in a vehicle, according to police.
The mother was released after posting a $50,000 bond and she is scheduled to appear in Bristol Superior Court on Sept. 2.
NBC Connecticut knocked on her door for comment, but no one answered.
More information will be provided when it becomes available.

French Mimolette cheese blocked by FDA due to mites
It's the Great Cheese Mite Mystery.
For centuries, microscopic mites have been part of the process for making Mimolette, a mild-tasting cheese shaped like a cannonball and electric orange in color. For decades, the cheese has been imported from France and distributed to shops and grocery stores across the United States.
That is, until this spring, when the Food and Drug Administration began blocking shipments of the Gouda-like product at U.S. ports, leaving thousands of pounds of it stranded in warehouses from New Jersey to California.
The FDA says inspectors found too many cheese mites per square inch crawling on the cantaloupe-like rinds of Mimolette, raising health concerns. But the agency hasn't explained exactly why it began holding up the cheese shipments after decades of relatively few problems. "The only thing we can do is cite our regulations, which show very clearly that our job is to protect the food supply," FDA spokeswoman Patricia El-Hinnawy said.
The move has provoked outrage among the small-but-fervent band of Mimolette fans, who call the blockage unwarranted and are fretting about what it means for the fate of other cheeses that rely on mites as part of the aging process.
"It's completely natural. You have bugs on every single cheese you leave in the open air," said Benoit de Vitton, North American representative for Isigny Sainte-Mere, a top exporter of Mimolette based in Normandy. "You can't have Mimolette without cheese mites. It wouldn't be Mimolette."
The protests, which have occurred on both sides of the Atlantic, include a recent Facebook campaign by Jill Erber, who with her husband runs Cheesetique shops in Alexandria and Arlington, Va.
"Alert! In case you're unaware, the FDA has cut off supplies of Mimolette, a beloved French hard-aged cheese, as it feels that the microscopic mites on the rind (essential for creating the cheese's unique flavor) might cause an allergic reaction," Erber wrote on Cheesetique's Facebook page this month.
"In protest -- and in honor of Mimolette, which has been made the same way since King Louis XIV declared it the National Cheese of France, Cheesetique is giving away Mimolette for free. . . . All you have to do is post a photo of yourself frowning pathetically on our Facebook page."
She added, "Mimolette is running out all over the country . . . so this give-away is just while supplies last."
Scores of gloomy-faced photos began rolling in, from as far as San Francisco and Switzerland. A man and his parrot stared sullenly at the camera. A little girl pouted. A bride holding a bouquet looked indignant. A Cleveland woman wiped tears from her eyes.
"Drat those FDA bureaucrats -- they obviously have never tasted the subtle magnificence of this cheese," one Mimolette devotee wrote beside her picture.
"Mites are people, too," wrote another.
"Sacre Bleu!" wrote another.
The cheese-mite tempest began in March, when the FDA stopped a shipment of Mimolette from Isigny, citing the product as "filthy," "putrid" and unfit for consumption.
Subsequent shipments also got held up, de Vitton said, and the company soon halted shipments to the United States. The roughly 3,300 of pounds of Mimolette detained in America cannot be distributed until the FDA gives approval, de Vitton said, adding that it's impractical to send the cheese back to France, and it will probably have to be destroyed.
"It's a big hit for the company," he said. "Obviously, I think it's unfair. . . . I absolutely want to sell it again [in the United States], but the last thing you want is to be fighting with the FDA."
De Vitton said mites accumulate on the outside of Mimolette during the months it is stored in caves to age. Before shipping, workers brush off the rinds and spray them with compressed air to get rid of most of the mites.
"But if you have just one or two mites on the rind, they will reproduce during transportation," de Vitton said, adding, "No one eats the rind."
FDA records show that other shipments of Mimolette from companies other than Isigny have been detained recently. Agency officials say there is no official "ban," nor have they issued import alerts that would prevent shipments from coming into the country, as long as they meet current safety standards.
The agency said it has "no established levels" for the maximum number of mites allowed on cheese and that inspectors evaluate import samples on a case-by-case basis. "We do have a target value of 6 mites per square inch that represents a level of concern for field laboratories," El-Hinnawy said in a statement.
Rachel Dutton, a microbiologist who runs a cheese research lab at Harvard University, said people who handle cheese and come into contact with large amounts of mites have been known to have occasional allergic reactions. But she said she's unaware of anyone getting sick from eating mites in cheese, which itself is full of various microbes that provide distinct textures, flavors and aromas.
"I understand their desire to protect the consumer," Dutton said of the FDA's caution. But "it's true that these cheeses have been consumed for hundreds, if not thousands, of years with no apparent link to disease from the mites."
Whatever the reasons, the FDA's crackdown has struck a nerve.
In New York, dozens of protesters, many dressed in orange, took to the streets in Greenwich Village in April to hand out samples of Mimolette to draw attention to the dispute.
In Washington, the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank, produced a video interview with Erber and pondered in a blog post: "Could this be the most useless allocation of FDA resources yet? It just mite."
The Washington Times published an editorial with the headline "Free the cheese mites," which likened FDA officials to "nannies" who "just groove on bossing people around."
Cathy Strange, the global cheese buyer for Whole Foods Market, said the grocery chain has been buying as much remaining Mimolette from suppliers as it can.
"It just makes us a bit sad," said Strange, who remains hopeful that the imports can continue. "It's one of those unique cheeses that not too many people know about, but if you're in the cheese community, you know. . . . It's one of my favorite. It would be in my top 10."
But there's also an air of resignation in the cheese world that Mimolette's moment might have passed on this side of the Atlantic.
Erber has a decent stock in her stores that sells at $19.99 per pound, but she's not holding her breath that she'll find more when it runs out.
"Adieu, Mimolette," she wrote in a newsletter to her customers this month. "It's been nice knowing you."
De Vitton said his company has been working with the FDA in hopes of finding a way to get Mimolette back on the U.S. market. But even he has his doubts.
"I think it's gone. There's no way we can produce the Mimolette without mites, and the FDA doesn't want mites," de Vitton said. "As we say in French, c'est la vie."

La Glam
Hi there, I am a makeup artist specialising in the bridal industry. I am currently creating my own makeup brand "La Glam" and need a logo for this. To start with I will have only lipstick and lipgloss and then plan to expand the range further in future to include mineral foundations etc. The products are made of natural minerals. The logo will need to be fairly small ie to fit neatly on a lipgloss or lipstick. The packaging will be silver and i'm imagining the logo to be black, although if you have any other ideas please do advise. I'm also happy to email you a picture of the packaging for inspiration.
Targeting all ages, particularly those in 20s and 30s. My main clientelle will be brides and bridal parties but I also plan to market this onto other makeup artists and salons to on sell to their clientelle.
Must look glamorous and elegant
logo in black as packaging is silver
not too much detail in line with other makeup brands ie revlon, loreal etc which are one word statements. Please see link below so that you can view a sample of the packaging. The picture is in gold, however my packaging will be in silver. I think something elegant and flowing like edwardian script would be nice... and probably only one or two colour logo, one preferred. Please copy and paste this link to view packaging for inspiration... http://www.nb-jy.com/en_products_logo.asp?ID=511
Need designs asap as decision is to be made asap for printing on packaging.

DRIVERS Adrian SUTIL (Sauber), Nico HULKENBERG (Force India), Kamui
KOBAYASHI (Caterham), Felipe MASSA (Williams), Lewis HAMILTON
(Mercedes), Jenson BUTTON (McLaren)
Jenson, well start with you if we may. A 2011 winner here, of course, memorably,
and youre currently eighth in the championship. This circuit has the famous wall
of champions on the outside of the final corner. The back of the cars this year, of
these designs, is quite light. I wonder if you could a little bit about how you read
the challenge of driving these cars around this track this weekend.
Jenson BUTTON: OK. Good morning. Yeah, its going to be tricky here, It always is,
especially with the cold circuit temperatures well probably have on Friday. So yeah,
the last corner will be tricky, but were sort of used to that I think. Weve been driving
these cars all year and if we can drive these cars around Monaco I think well be
alright around here. It should be an interesting circuit. Its a circuit where you dont
really use downforce so much, its a lot more mechanical grip. There are long straights,
so we can use the power of the engine for us thats great, with the Mercedes engine.
And its about working with the tyres. I think its going to be tricky around here. Its
supposed to be hot on Sunday, so youre going to have to really look after them. But
were reasonably good at that.
Talking about McLarens situation: how do you compare this year to last year and the
competitiveness and the problems that you have? Are they more fixable than last
years problems?
JB: Yeah, I think from the outside it doesn't look spectacular, our season this year, and
youd say it looks quite similar to last year but its very different. In terms of the feel
of the car, its much better. In terms of the development of the car, it is working and
were going in the right direction. Yeah, its tough. When youve been fighting for
wins and the team is used to fighting for wins, its difficult when you find yourself in
this situation. But also there are a lot of positives right now. With Ron back in charge,
and Eric, I think theyre doing a great job of really moving the team on and changing
certain things so that we will be fighting at the front again. But it just takes time.
Things dont change overnight, even though were pushing very hard.
OK, thank you. Coming to you now Lewis. Youre a three-time winner here, three
times on pole here. What is it about you and this Montreal circuit and its walls
around the outside? Is it the braking? Is about technique? What is it that
somehow clicks with you here?
Lewis HAMILTON: Im not sure. Good morning everyone. I guess there are certain
tracks you like more than others and this is one of those circuits I particularly like. I
really like coming out to Canada, I always have a great response from the fans here. It
is one of the best grands prix of the year in terms of the turnout, the city, just in general
the weekend, its a good fun weekend and I guess all of that packed into one makes it
fun to drive.
Youve said this week that you and your team-mate Nico Rosberg are friends
again after Monaco. Can you tell us a little bit more about that?
LH: Theres not really much to say. I said it in my message. We spoke after the race
and just like friends we have our ups and down, weve known each other a long, long
time, so its done and dusted and we look forward to working together to try to help
this team win the Constructors Championship.
OK, thank you for that. Coming on to Felipe. Three seventh-place finishes so far
this season, your best result here in Montreal a fourth. Williams is tied with
McLaren at the moment in the Constructors Championship with 52 points after
six races. Is that in line with your expectations?
Felipe MASSA: No. Definitely I think I didnt have great results until now. It should
be much better than what I had until now. So I had not very great races, starting with
the race, where I didnt get to corner two and you know in Bahrain I was fighting for
third, fourth the whole race and then I lost a lot of positions because of the safety car.
So I think it was not very great results but Im sure we can do much better and I hope
this track can be also a bit better for our car compared to Monaco, compared to other
tracks. So really looking forward that we can have a lot better results, starting here in
Montreal, a lot better than seventh I hope.
I wonder if you could tell us what Rob Smedley has brought to the team, because
you obviously have got a very long working relationship with him. Hes now in a
senior role on the engineering side, can you tell a little bit about what hes
brought to the team?
FM: A lot of experience. A lot of good direction, different things in terms of how to
work, you know, in many different areas. I think hes a very intelligent engineer, has a
lot of experience. For sure, things dont change from one day to the other, so it takes a
little bit of time but not just him, we have a lot of great engineers, a lot of good people
and things are getting better all the time inside the team and Im really looking forward
that from now until the end of the of the championship things will get better and better
all the time.
Nico, coming to you. Fifth in the Drivers Championship and points scored in
every round so far but no podium personally yet. Given the confidence that Force
India has in the package for this weekend in Montreal, is this you weekend do you
Nico HULKENBERG: I dont know. Obviously I hope and like every weekend were
going to try to make the most of our chances here. I think the track should be OK for
us. Also, its one of my favourite grands prix, so I really look forward to this weekend
the track, the city, everything is pretty cool. So hopefully we can have a strong result
Q: Monaco showed that you can get results by doing a different strategy from the
people around you. As a midfield team I wonder, is that something you feel you
need to do to get the results or do you feel you can compete with front running
teams on equal terms?
NH: Not really, and I think looking back in hindsight we made it a bit harder for
ourselves, starting on the harder tyre the other way around with how it turned out,
Safety Car etcetera may have been easier but I think its always different and you
always have to look at each race and each case and decide then but, generally, were
having a good package, were competitive and that puts us in a good position in
Q: Kamui, youve twice finished in the points here in Montreal but after
Marussias result at the last round in Monaco I wonder what the reaction was in
the Caterham team? Is it encouragement that its possible to score points or
concern about the position it leaves you in?
Kamui KOBAYASHI:
For us the Monaco result for us was a bit of a pain but at least we know Marussia made
a great step from their updates so I have to say, I think, we have to say its a well done
job. I think for us for sure I think we need to work. I think what happened in Monaco
was a little bit strange but at least we check with the FIA and thats through so we
have nothing to say but at least we have some upgrades for that first point.
Q: So what is the way forward for the Caterham team this season?
KK: The thing about a Formula One team is we cannot change day-by-day. We
progress. Of course, its not an easy life for us, its a difficult moment right now but for
sure everybody is working really hard and we know, I think, that we will progress. We
need a little bit of time and we are looking forward to more later on this season.
Q: Adrian, two points finishes also for you in your career here in Montreal but
still none this year for you with the Sauber team. Your thoughts on the start that
the team has made and how the upgrades have worked out so far.
Adrian SUTIL: Well, a difficult start of course. I thought it would be a little bit more
easy but thats how it is. Thats how our situation is. We try, of course, to get out and
improve the car, improve general performance yeah, coming here we try it again. We
had a tough weekend in Monaco but I think Monaco was a little bit more on the better
side, the car was behaving a little bit better and so its not only bad everything. There
are a few positive things but its very complicated to make it altogether at the
moment. To understand the car is quite difficult for us still, so we have to work on that
and we need a bit more time and hopefully it really goes soon in the right direction. Its
quite hard to be in the back there always, lot of problems come together in racing at the
Q: And tell us from your perspective what you think it will be like to race these
hybrid turbo cars around this circuit the specific challenges of this circuit?
AS: Well I think here were going to have quite high top speeds, with the new engines
and the low drag the cars have so we should really be quick on the straights, maybe
also a quicker overall lap time than last year maybe so I dont know. It should be a
circuit that suits the car in general. All the Formula One cars, not only us. And, as
everyone said, its quite an enjoyable track with a lot of possibilities to overtake. The
race should be quite interesting as well. Lot of chicanes yeah, good weekend and I
look forward to it, hopefully with a quite good result in the end.
Q: (Ian Parkes PA) Jenson, I dont know if you read the teams pre-race press
release this week but there were some very complimentary words from Eric
Boullier with regard to yourself, taking about your quality of input, your
experience, your ambassadorial role. It all sounded very positive and almost as if
theyre looking to next year, perhaps wanting to keep you. Any further progress
on that? As I say, it was all very complimentary towards yourself.
JB: erno. No more progress at all. But thats just the way it is. Were here, weve
spent four good years together already. In our fifth year together. And we both want to
work together in the future but its just not time yet. Not the right time. We have a lot
of other issues to solve first before we start thinking about the future too much. Were
in a good place and yknow, I think my experience does help me a lot. I still feel very
young at heart, fitter than ever and I have all that experience. Im in a great position
and I feel Ive got a lot more to give in the future in Formula One. I definitely cant see
an end to my career. This is my life and where I want to be in the future.
Q: (Bill Beacon La Presse Canadienne) Because this track is different to most
with the braking and long straights and everything, do you think that that in any
way will close the gap between Mercedes and the rest of the field?
LH: Id be guessing but I dont feel that will be the case. Were particularly strong on
the straights, Mercedes are but I dont know, maybe we will be surprised this weekend
but long straights do suit us very well. We have a very good power curve on our
engine, Mercedes have done the best job with the engines. Renault and Ferrari would
have to have done an exceptional job coming into this weekend, in terms of that area,
to be able to keep up with us on the straights..
FM: Definitely it can be a good track for most of the cars that are using Mercedes
(engines) so I think maybe we will see even maybe a big difference compared to
Mercedes and the other teams, because as Lewis said, the engine is amazing, its been
a very good job done by Mercedes and they have a good car under braking and
everything, so for sure maybe we can see maybe even a big difference.
NH: I dont think it will be very different to the other weeks before.
Q: (Chris Medland crash.net) Lewis, you said that the air has been cleared
between yourself and Nico between races. Did you feel the need to do the same
with the team and was anything different with the way the team handled the two
of you between Monaco and coming here now?
LH: There was no difference. Collectively with the team... me and Nico spoke and we
individually spoke to the team and saw the team. Nothings really changed. We know
the team has done a great job in terms of supporting us and the way its run with Paddy
and Toto. Their support for the both of us has been great. Were now full steam ahead.
We had dinner with the team yesterday and things have never been better. Were just
going from strength to strength. People have ups and downs, as I said, so its no
different to any other experience me and Nico have had in our whole God knows
how many years weve been racing together. We move on, were pushing forward.
Theres a long long way to go in the season so were looking forward to that battle.
Q: (Gerhard Kuntschik Salzburger Nachrichten) Jenson, as kind of the older
statesman, you raced on the old A1 Ring; were coming up to Austria again, Red
Bull Ring, in a fortnight; what are your memories of the Austrian Grand Prix?
JB: Lots of campsites and lots of very merry Austrians over the Grand Prix weekend.
Its one of those races that they really embrace the sort of party scene and the camping
scene, which is really cool. It reminds me very much of Spa, British Grand Prix and
those sort of races. Its a true racing fans Grand Prix, I feel. The circuit itself... you
look at it and you think theres like seven corners, it cant be that fun to drive. But it
is, its a really good circuit. Ive enjoyed racing there in the past, I dont know what its
going to be like with these cars. Ive always had fun racing there. I dont know how
much has changed, either. Turn one, we used to drive off through the gravel because
that was the quickest way on the exit. Im sure its not going to be the case any more. I
think were in for a good Grand Prix.
Q: (Luis Fernando Ramos Racing Magazine) To all drivers: the World Cup is
coming and your countries are going to be there, playing, so on a personal note,
how much are you interested in football? Are you going to follow all the matches
or you dont care much about whats going on there? And a second brief
question: who do you think is going to win the World Cup?
Q: Kamui, would you like to kick us off?
KK: Me? On soccer? I dont really care so I dont follow anything. All I know is that
Japan is not really strong so I dont...
NH: Well I hope that Gemany is going to be good but Im not a football expert but Im
sure Im going to be behind the TV following the World Cup.
AS: Ill be watching, cheering for Uruguay and Germany, because Im half
FM: Yeah, I love football, I watch everything, so I will maybe be watching most of the
games. I really hope that Brazil can be there in the final. To win the championship at
home would be fantastic so I will be there watching and supporting Brazil.
LH: I dont follow it as much (as I used to) but I will probably catch a few games and I
want to try and see if we can go out to one of the games at least. The dream will be to
go and watch Brazil and England play, that would be pretty awesome.
JB: Yes, I totally agree. Im not a massive football fan, I dont support a team but
when it comes to nationalities, countries playing, obviously I will be supporting
England and Im really looking forward to it.

The wirehouse exodus, baby boomer retirement, a uniform standard of care, Godot—things we're waiting for that never arrive.
At a gathering of the Young Turks of technology at the FPA's national conference in September, the excitement over integration (yes, integration) was palpable, because it's finally arrived.
"That 'killer app' that everyone wanted and talked about 10 years ago is here," said Redtail CEO Brian McLaughlin. "And it's driven by integration."
Chris Valleley, a senior product manager with TD Ameritrade Institutional, chimed in that advisors are more tech savvy, have higher expectations and are looking for simplification of process (thanks, Apple).
"They want a one-stop-shop for everything," added Eric Clarke, president of Orion Advisor Services. "And they can now have it. The client won't know what's happening behind the scenes, because it will all be private-labeled to the advisor. One change at the client interface level will result in the change being made across all the disparate systems that are talking to one another."
It's no longer about the business conforming to technology; quite the opposite. Clarke noted he and the other roundtable participants are members of Your Silver Bullet, a collection of technology companies committed to talking, working and interfacing with one another for the advisor's and client's benefit (think ISO).
As its website states, it is not a platform, product, pre-packaged suite of applications or consulting organization, but a "committed community."
"Portable, secure data aggregation that can be viewed and rebalanced in real time over mobile devices is here now," McLaughlin said.
How true that is, and Trust Company of America is on the leading edge. This month's cover subject has a big announcement in the field of mobile, and specifically tablet, technology, that will forever change the way advisors do business, according to Investment Advisor columnist Bob Clark—and that's not hyperbole.
CEO Frank Maiorano and his team have a platform that's so easy to use, it's completely intuitive, with no user manual and minimal training required. It's perfect for advisors and, more importantly, their clients, who might have just predated the computer revolution, but nonetheless possess a majority of assets.
"Anytime, anywhere, on any piece of glass," said Trust Chief Information Officer Dennis Noto.
For advisors still hosting their own client information and data (and those still on the dreaded Excel spreadsheet, for God's sake), it's time to get real. Little things like cost reduction, automatic rebalancing, real-time updates, reduction of overhead and administration, straight-through processing, client communication, marketing, security and compliance await: all at the touch of a button from wherever you and your client happen to be.
I now see why they were all so excited.
