Skip to comments.Taxing the Miles You Drive. GPS to Track and Record All Vehicles?
Posted on 03/25/2011 4:18:33 PM PDT by stillafreemind
Remember when smokers begged for people to be a little understanding? Remember when smokers warned that there would be a tax that ALL people would have to pay on something they held dear? Well, I think the GPS tax for tracking and taxing every mile you drive just may fit that bill.
This tax, like the cigarette smokers tax, will have devastating consequences on the poor and middle income people. With a tax on every mile we drive, not to mention tracking information on every mile we drive, are we seeing the "hope" and "change" that Obama and the democrats were talking about?

. To detail the particulars comprehended in the general terms, taxes, duties, imposts and excises, would require a volume, instead of a single piece in a newspaper. Indeed it would be a task far beyond my ability, and to which no one can be competent, unless possessed of a mind capable of comprehending every possible source of revenue; for they extend to every possible way of raising money, whether by direct or indirect taxation.
Under this clause may be imposed a poll tax, a land tax, a tax on houses and buildings, on windows and fireplaces, on cattle and on all kinds of personal property. It extends to duties on all kinds of goods to any amount, to tonnage and poundage on vessels, to duties on written instruments, newspapers, almanacks, and books. It comprehends an excise on all kinds of liquors, spirits, wines, cider, beer, etc., and indeed takes in duty or excise on every necessary or conveniency of life, whether of foreign or home growth or manufactory. In short, we can have no conception of any way in which a government can raise money from the people, but what is included in one or other of these general terms.
We may say then that this clause commits to the hands of the general legislature every conceivable source of revenue within the United States, Not only are these terms very comprehensive, and extend to a vast number of objects, but the power to lay and collect has great latitude; it will lead to the passing a vast number of laws, which may affect the personal rights of the citizens of the states, expose their property to fines and confiscation, and put their lives in jeopardy. It opens a door to the appointment of a swarm of revenue and excise collectors to prey upon the honest and industrious part of the community, [and] eat up their substance
BRUTUS, The New-York Journal of December 13, 1787
We had this proposal come before the Oregon legilature where it was defeated. Here is the letter I wrote at the time.
O-DOT Plus GPS Equals KGB
Victor Sheymov entered Eighth KGB Directorate in 1971. When he escaped U.S.S.R. in 1980, he directed KGB cipher communications worldwide, and as such was the highest-ranking intelligence official to defect.
Victors first obstacle for executing escape plans was contacting a Known Intelligence Official (KIO). He circumvented multi-level surveillance preventing KIO contacts. KGB tactics included agents posing as foreigners, permanent listening and optical devises in restaurants and hotels, and stationary surveillance by Seventh Directorate traffic officers or agents in covert stations with powerful optics.
Elaborate, labor-intensive methods proved effective because the Soviet Union restricted foreigners travels. Those from NATO countries received special attention, and qualified for up to sixteen surveillance teams, and for planted vehicle homing devices. Restricted travel meant direction-monitoring towers provided real time vehicle locations.
The KGB would have benefited enormously from Oregon Department of Transportation (O-DOT) 21st century technology placing GPS monitoring devices in every vehicle. The devices with computers provide complete travel histories. They enable real time and historical vehicle collocations. The KGB could have greatly enhanced KIO, and key employee surveillance with reduced human resources.
The GPS, lauded nationwide, allows charging tax by mile instead of charging by amount of gas used, so low mileage and high mileage vehicles pay equivalent amounts. However, this approach contradicts policies to conserve fossil fuels.
Just because you are not paranoid, doesnt mean they arent out to get you. Is this comprehensive government intrusion into our lives warranted? Victor escaped the Soviet Union, but where do we go?
They can have this when all elected and non-elected government employees and officials wear webcam/microphones 24/7 so we can monitor them and make sure they're being good, too.
We already pay by the mile when we drive and pay taxes on the fuel we buy. If the proposal is to add yet another punitive tax then I say that instead of paying in cash, which is becoming unstable, we pay it in the form of a more fungible commodity, like lead.
Why don't they just put GPS collars on us all? Run them the same way self winding watches do. That way a LEO has any questions, he can scan the collar memory and download all your movements a la KGB/East Germany People's Paradise.
Isn't it nuts? We would be penalized for getting ourselves to our job. Now that's positive reinforcement. Another type of "wealth redistribution". If you've got a job, dang it, you'd better help those coming up behind. Social Justice!!!! Yes We Can!
OH yeah - on the other hand, how dare you not take public transportation that doesn't exist.
We should eat little GPS chips and taxed every time he sh*t one of them out.
I'll just post this each time I see this article or something like this...
So here we are, looking at a mileage tax. It's very emotional, since it squarely attacks one of our major freedoms in the US, which is the ability to get in our cars and drive around without ANYONE knowing what we're doing. We can even drive cross-country and it's likely that no one will know we ever left home, if we pay cash the whole way and stay clear of places (like motels) where they require ID. So, I want to take a calm and measured look at this.
In my case, based on my income (assuming, of course, it continues), my debts (very small, just a house payment at 20% of my take-home, and my cash at hand (plenty), I figure that I can pay whatever tolling rates they want, without barely noticing. And, if they did implement this scheme, it would almost certainly clear the roads of traffic, something that I would like (although others would have a tough time affording to drive on those clear roads - after all there is a reason why they'd be clear). In other words, from a purely selfish standpoint, I should support this scheme...but I don't.
So why not? In a perfect world, where Atlas DOESN'T have to shrug and where everyone acted as finely tuned robots, nothing could be better than pricing road travel to assure the exact same level of traffic at 4:30 in the morning as 4:30 in the afternoon...and the same traffic at 5 AM Sunday, as 5 PM Friday. We would simply get the best use out of our roads. That is why this idea sits well at CATO and Heritage...where very well-paid, pointy-headed guys simply want to be able to drive home after work without having to "fight the traffic". But, of course, it's not that simple.
So, let's step back and look at why we might want to impose a Vehicle Mileage Tax (VMT). I can think of several reasons:
1) There are two many cars on the road at a given time (i.e., rush hour).
2) We are importing too much oil.
3) We are not collecting enough revenue to fix and expand our roads.
4) People are driving cars that are too big
5) We are emitting too much carbon
6) Driving without restrictions simply represents too much freedom for a modern, progressive, society.
7) We want to sell-off our roads to someone with lots of cash, to pay down the national debt.
So, you step back and try to figure out how to address the above and look at the options.
Option 1: Increase revenue enough enough money to keep up with highway needs
Option 2: Increase revenue enough to seriously cut down on road travel and provide extra money for social programs.
Option 3: Control the movements of people, and allow those movements to be monitored...also pay back debts to other countries.
You find that an increase of the gas tax will help with everything except #6 and #7, which is controlling freedom and paying our debts. Even with a high gas tax, people will still drive where they want, when they want. If money is just needed for highway repair and expansion, an increase of the gas tax of, maybe, 25 to 50 cents per gallon will easily cover it. If we want to cut way back on imported oil, then 2 to 4 dollars per gallon of tax increase will cover it. That same increase (2 to 4 dollars per gallon) will also provide PLENTY of revenue to repair and expand highways...and the expanding part will not even be necessary with fuel prices that high (i.e., there will be a LOT less driving).
So we come down to #6 and #7. #6 (i.e., monitoring of peoples' movements) is obvious - once you have GPS, then THE G-MAN will know where you are at any time. For #7, you're getting into how to payback our creditors (mainly the Chinese and Japanese, but also much of Europe and US banks). The idea is that once a mileage-based tolling system is in place, the revenue can be sent overseas and our banks...which may prevent WW3 (particularly after we finish disarming). The amount of money that can be generated...if priced for maximum revenue, is likely 30 to 50 cents per mile (average)...or close to a trillion dollars per year.
To be honest, I have no clue what the long-term intentions are, I only look at what COULD be done.
Needless to say, this crap needs to be stopped PRONTO, as we have much better options than giving government control over where we drive, what we drive, and when we drive.
if something like this was forced upon the masses of america, i would be in full support of all out removal of every elected political official and every appointed official. Time to scrap the whole mess and start over from scratch. If this is what Soros wants, he would not survive it. Dont ask for the things you desire in life, sometimes you do not like how they taste
THAT was MY first thought....we ALREADY pay taxes on GAS for this VERY reason.....they really do think we are stupid.
Some ranchers fly around on their ranches...wonder if they will tax that, too. If not now, they will later.
Obama doesn't care what we think. He only cares about what he wants to do TO us.
I'm moving to Rhode Island...or getting a motor bike.
There's no place left to go but here; and Obama & his commie administration is fast making that stink. - So, here we stand, or fall.
If they can track you with GPS, they can do a lot more than simply tax the number of miles you drove. They will know where you went, when you went there, how long you stayed, and how fast you drove.
I guess speeding tickets will start showing up in your mailbox, or worse yet the fines will be drafted out of your bank account.
I totally agree! I think I fear the info they will garner more than the supposed gas tax itself. What freedom?
No problem....
Taxing incomes allows the government to destroy financial privacy. If we allow government to require us to have a GPS device for recording our driving, no matter how much we are assured that it will not be used to violate our travel privacy, as sure as the sun rises and sets, sooner or later some future version of it will be used to do just that!
(For example, when we start down this road, the taxation device will only record mileage. However, soon somebody will lobby for being taxed at a different rate for driving on special roads. At that point, the device has to record you were on that that road. There are all kinds of ways that once such a device is available and required that either some bureaucracy or legislature will find it easy to justify "mission creep", and poof there goes your ability to drive where you please without anyone being able to know.)
This isn't anything like the cigarette tax. If it were, you wouldn't be allowed to drive, while in your vehicle.
Yes, and as you might recall, part of Obamacare is direct government access into your bank account. The pieces of the puzzle fit together perfectly.
A gas tax is a tax on every mile you drive. If you use more gas (via driving more or bad gas mileage) you pay more tax and are presumably paying in accordance with your use of the highways and damage to the ecology (I didn't say I believe this BTW). But you see, much like the cigarette tax, the more you tax something the less revenue you get as people will conserve in various ways.
So the spendaholics have got to figure out a way for you to pay taxes not connected to what you drive, these people just don't stop.
Now lets be environmentally sensitive here. The EPA has a serious concern about lead. We should consider FMJ instead.
And there lies the rub. Once this idea is beat back then the "obvious" solution is to do just that...increase the gas tax. The idea is to frighten then relieve, even if the relief will piss many off. Yard Sale politics at its basic, pure level.
As motor vehicles become more efficient, the revenue from gasoline taxes decreases. Let's say you buy a gallon of gasoline for $4.00 of which $2.00 is tax. That's $0.05 per mile in a Prius as opposed to $0.20 per mile in a Suburban.
Feareth not.
GPS jammer stock will go through the roof. And everyone will have one.
YES, I know....same goes for cigarettes....as States have programs for smoking cessation....and then complain that their tax revenues drop...and btw, my "efficiency" in gas hasn't dropped in 10+ years....that's how long we've had our Ford F100 P/U
Ridiculous? Of course it is. That's why it's really gonna suck when crap like this starts kicking in.
The last time I heard, we already had a "fuel" tax. Seems to me that is sufficient without all this added BS. Double Taxation.
Fry any POL who advocates such dribble.
Bye Bye Bye Dummies.
What if they outlaw 'em? They outlawed radar jammers. ...just saying that layers of contingency plans might be good.
Now, who makes a faraday cage which will block the GPS transciever in a vehicle?
A per-mile gas tax would adversely effect southern state, but most particularly western states where you have to have a car to get around because everything is so spread out. Most of NYC wouldn't have to pay this tax because they don't have any cars!! It's simply not fair.

>> Read up on Agenda 21 folks, this is part of the plan. It will drive people from rural areas into the festering urban enclaves where they can be controlled.
Won't happen. The roots of Liberty are deeper than most realize, and I'm willing to bank my life on it — and I mean that sincerely.
The right to travel is a part of the "liberty" of which the citizen cannot be deprived without due process of law under the Fifth Amendment. So much is conceded by the Solicitor General. In Anglo-Saxon law, that right was emerging at least as early as the Magna Carta. [n12] Chafee, [p126] Three Human Rights in the Constitution of 1787 (1956), 171-181, 187 et seq., shows how deeply engrained in our history this freedom of movement is. Freedom of movement across frontiers in either direction, and inside frontiers as well, was a part of our heritage. Travel abroad, like travel within the country, may be necessary for a livelihood. It may be as close to the heart of the individual as the choice of what he eats, or wears, or reads. Freedom of movement is basic in our scheme of values. See Crandall v. Nevada, 6 Wall. 35, 44; Williams v. Fears, 179 U.S. 270, 274; Edwards v. California, 314 U.S. 160. "Our nation," wrote Chafee,
has thrived on the principle that, outside areas of plainly harmful conduct, every American is left to shape his own life as he thinks best, do what he pleases, go where he pleases.
Kent v Dulles, 357 US 116, 125 decided June, 1958
It is the surveillance aspect of the installation of MONITORING DEVICES in all vehicles that really concerns me.. THIS HAS TO BE STOPPED.
Incredibly ND Democrat KENT CONRAD IS PROMOTING THIS. It is amazing that someone from ND would be endorsing this kind of tax and government tracking of every individual.
I would bet there would be many waivers given to override transmission of the data by gadget fix or even crooked government employees. Government insiders and poor people on food stamps and other handouts woould be on waivers if for no other purposes than to keep the votes coming in.

et's say you buy a gallon of gasoline for $4.00 of which $2.00 is tax. That's $0.05 per mile in a Prius as opposed to $0.20 per mile in a Suburban.
The gas tax still works. A Prius is MUCH lighter than the suburban and thus would cause much less wear and tare on the road ways. Get back to me on raising the gas tax when all funs from said taxes go back in to the roads the tax was collected for in the first place.
In Minnesota it goes in to a "transportation fund" it's used for anything remotely close to transportation. Bike paths, HOV lanes, buses.. Once in a while some of it actually goes in to the roads.

Visiting Angels, a home care company serving southern Delaware, and LifeFone, a leading national provider of personal emergency response systems, have teamed up to help educate the community about the importance of using a medical alert system.
The statistics regarding falls in the senior population are frightening.
One in three people age 65 and older will have a serious fall each year. By the age of 80, more than half of seniors fall annually. Falls account for 25 percent of all hospital admissions and 40 percent of all nursing home admissions; 40 percent of those admitted do not return to independent living. Falls are the leading cause of death from injury among the elderly
A personal alert system is a push-button device that summons help. In the case of LifePhone, the device connects the wearer with live assistance, which immediately knows who and where the wearer is, has his or her history in front of them, and can call a loved one, a neighbor, police or an ambulance.
David Forman, president of Visiting Angels, said, "Nobody thinks they're going to fall, yet emergency rooms in every hospital are filled with people who didn't expect to be there that day. Based on fall statistics alone, every senior adult living alone or with someone who is unable to assist them if they fall should have a way of summoning help. Add to the equation all illnesses that may require immediate attention such as heart attack or stroke, and these devices become essential."
George Wissing, director of Business Development for LifeFone, said, "Medical studies show that your chances of surviving a fall are six times greater if you get help within one hour. Also, immediate help increases the odds of your continuing to live independently."
Wissing suggests three things to consider when choosing medical alert systems:
1. The right technology: High-tech doesn't always mean better. For a safety device to be effective, it should be small, light, simple and reliable; maintenance free (no batteries to change or charge); waterproof so it can be worn in the bath or shower; and always available in and around the home.
2. Monitored versus unmonitored systems: The goal of both services is to get family or emergency responders on the scene. But, there are limitations to a nonmonitored service. Will the high-tech pendant Mom is wearing work when it's needed most? Will Mom know which buttons to press when in a panic? If the pendant is big and bulky, will she even wear it? If 911 is dispatched, can responders get in the house without costly damage?
The solution to all these challenges is a monitored emergency service where the wearer presses one button for help and gets a friendly voice 24/7/365. An attendant can call 911, fire department, police and family contacts. Medical information, doctor's name and hospital of preference are on file. The home can be accessed without damage by contact to key holder or via lock box.
3. Pricing and contract: Service costing more than $29.95 per month is usually paying too much. The client should make sure he or she is not signing a long-term contract and should not prepay for the year unless there is a refund policy.
Forman says its local partnership with LifeFone is a natural extension of its home care services. The company provides caregivers to help seniors and disabled adults live independently in their own homes. They help with personal care, meal preparation, housekeeping, errands, transportation, shopping and companionship.
"LIfeFone is like having another angel watching over you or your loved one, when one of our own angels is not present," Forman said.
LifeFone offers free delivery when a prospective client calls and mentions Visiting Angels, whether a client of the agency or not. Forman will also help clients with easy setup in the home at no charge. Call LifeFone at 877-330-7556 today. Be sure to mention Visiting Angels.

Recent Anahola reviews
"My new wife and I LOVED our stay at Manihani's quaint farm cottage. We wish we could have stayed for weeks, rather than just the five nights we had booked. The cottage is on a beautiful spread of land. Even though the driveway takes you past a couple other homes, by the time you get to the cottage you feel like you have the whole east side of Kaua'i to yourself. Also, my wife and I felt like Anahola, the small community where this place is located, is the perfect spot on the island. It's just far enough removed from the tourist hangouts that you can decompress, but still just a quick drive to Kapaa and Hanalei, two places with good restaurants and all the amenities. One major plus to this property is that it has a ton of gear for the beach — two beach chairs, a couple floating chairs, some sun hats, beach towels, even an umbrella. We were so thankful to find this stuff waiting for us. It made our days at the beach (we recommend the Anahola Beach Park and Kekaha) way more comfortable than they would have been had we been left to our own devices. A review of Manihani's farm wouldn't be complete without a mention of Coco-nut, the dog. He's a super friendly chocolate lab who would come for visits from the host's home nearby. He came and hung out with us and played fetch two mornings in a row. Being the dog lovers that we are, hanging out with Coco sent this place over the top for us! Last but not least, Diana was the consummate host. Her e-mails prior to our stay were super helpful. The notebook about the property — which was out on the counter for our arrival — was very helpful as well. We were never left guessing about the wifi password or what to do with the trash; all our questions were answered right there. This cottage is definitely a no-frills kind of place. But if you're looking for an escape from all the hubbub that you find around Hawai'i, then you should do yourself a favor and stay here."Guest: Matthew J.

"I set up this reservation two years ago. Wanted a home large enough for two families plus myself to spread out, relax, have our own space yet all together under one roof. The beach and it's safety also important as with five grandchildren ages 9 through 15 safety important. Having been to Kauai twice before I knew what areas to stay away from and what areas to look for that perfect house. FOUND IT! The home and grounds more beautiful then I imagined it would be. The beach.......well, it was Hawaii in every sense of the word not to mention great snorkeling just steps away! Absolutely no need for a swimming pool when having beach front that provided all the swimming anyone would want. The boards and snorkeling equipment well used. So many amenities around to keep the kids and adults busy/happy. The historical town of Kappa close by to visit. Shaved ice became a favorite. Property location made it easy to get to all those little hideaway beaches north of Kappa. Heads up....if you drive north leave early as the parking can be challenging at the most sought after beaches. On those days of exploration don't sleep in! The other side of this is how wonderful property manager Jude was to us. We enjoyed her little visits not to mention the pineapples fresh off her pineapple farm. She is proud of this property and rightly so. Thank you Jude for all! In closing I say "Ditto" to all other recent reviews of this place. Don't be afraid of renting this home. Go for it. You won't be disappointed in any way. A great home for my family of 10. My only disappointment.....having to leave. That being said....... the good memories will live on forever. PERFECT!"Guest: Grandma from Washington State Date of Stay: June 2016 Review Submitted: July 16, 2016View listing
"My friend and I were tickled pink with the condominium! Great location, very clean, nicely appointed, and all the "toys" needed for any adventure! You are never sure what you are paying for until you get there and any concerns we may have had, walked out the door as we walked in! Nice and quiet ~ an upper story/end of building location. We enjoyed the lanai in the morns/eves watching the ocean and the ever-present chickens! Thank you for opening your home to us and for being such great hosts! We may sell our time-share and get on board with VRBO!"Guest: Irene S. Date of Stay: June 2016 Review Submitted: June 29, 2016View listing
"We absolutely loved Secret Cove Cottage!!! My husband and I celebrated our 4th anniversary and enjoyed every minute! The house has everything we needed including snorkel equipment and kayak. The bed was very comfortable and the a/c kept the temperature stable. Everything was very clean and in good condition. Loved having a washer and dryer as well as a BBQ to cook the fish we caught. We watched the sunrise every morning from the green lawn. What a view!!! Easy walk to the beach and the cottage was tucked away which reduced the wind on windy days. Loved all the chickens, 2 cats and one 3 legged dog🐓🐱. Eunice was very pleasant and helpful. Only thing to report is that we were very close to neighbors and did not have view from the lanai. Great place to relax, have privacy and enjoy the beautiful island!!! Will definitely return!!!! Todd and Dawn🌴"Guest: Dawn W. Date of Stay: March 2016 Review Submitted: March 22, 2016View listing

If you want to begin speaking, or build your public speaking career, you know the get it to get picked in a crowded marketplace.

Turns out, my strategy of sending emails with "Pick Me! Pick Me!" in the subject line was flawed…

6:00 pm Saturday – July 23rd, 2016 Friday was the hottest day of 2016 so far. Most of Texoma reached 100 degrees. Saturday will be even Hotter ! Triple Digit Heat and High Humidity will make it Dangerously Hot. So plan today to schedule regular air conditioned breaks, continuously drink water and know the signs of both Heat Exhaustion and Heat Stroke. Finally, be prepared and willing to Call 911 as "Heat Stroke" is a Killer ! Today … a "Heat Advisory" has been in effect continuing until 8:00 pm for temperatures that will affect your body … as if it was 103 -108 degrees. Under Sunny skies, winds are from the South-Southwest 10-20 mph. Actual afternoon Highs in the shade pushed to near 101. Tonight … skies will be Clear and Warm in the 80s & 90s with South breezes 2-6 mph. Morning Lows will only drop to be a muggy 78. Sunday … winds swing to the South-Southeast 10-15 mph, increasing humidity, but also slowing our warm up. Afternoon Highs will be a tad cooler near 98 … but combined with humidity it will still feel like 103. Monday … we're Mostly Sunny to Partly Cloudy with a Scattered Showers and Storms. These slow moving heavy downpours will have the potential for high gusty, 40 to 60 mph and localized flash flooding. Afternoon Highs will be cooler near 95 with winds from the Southeast 10-15 mph. Tuesday ... a 20% chance of isolated Showers and Storms. Winds will be turning South-Southeast 10-15 mph as Highs warm a degree to 96, under partly Cloudy Skies. Wednesday … winds swing to a drier and warmer South-Southwest direction 10-15 mph as the Upper Air High Pressure drifts further west over Arizona. Skies will be Partly Cloudy and after morning Lows near 75 afternoon Highs will jump to 98. Thursday … with the Dome of High Pressure to our west this opens the door to more Isolated Showers and Storms from an approaching disturbance. Winds will be warm from the Southwest 10-15 mph. Because of the Partly Cloudy skies and potential showers … afternoon Highs will be a degree cooler near 97. Friday … the Upper Air Trough arrives providing Lift to the unstable hot and humid air over Texoma. More showers and storms are likely. These storms could be strong to severe with gusty winds and periods of heavy rain. Winds will continue warm from the Southwest 10-15 mph as afternoon Highs struggle to reach 95 in the rain cooled air. As always … Help Save A Young Life … please remember to please pass the word … Do Not Leave Pets or Children in the Car … with Temps pushing the upper 90s to 100 this week … Cars will heat up to 135 degrees or hotter in less than 15-25 minutes ... Parked Cars will be Death Traps ! Do a back seat "Double Check", so no one is left behind when parking your car. Tom Hale Meteorologist News 12 - Your Weather Authority

A solid film for fans of the found footage genre. It takes a while for things to pick up but the film held my interest the whole time. I've been waiting a while now for this movie. Thanks uploader. 4/5
|Posted by Suzicueball 1 year, 8 months ago
It gets right into the story in the first 10 min. The snarling, growling and howling creeped me out through the whole movie. The placed it's filmed is beautiful and the story fits in really well almost seems it could be true. I agree with the comment below mine that the things could have looked better but it was still freaky enough for me. This was a good one imo.
|Posted by missxnyc 3 years, 6 months ago
LOL was this a scary film? oops... I think the monsters in ghoulies and puppet master looked less cheesy. hahaha.. cannot stop laughing at myself for watching and the movie for just being simply put, bad...really bad.
|Posted by brandonIDGAF 3 years, 7 months ago
Definitely not one of the better found footage films. It does have some good things going for it... it plays on the fear of darkness and the unknown, and the creatures aren't as bad as everyone is saying they are. They are actually kind of creepy. But, with goofy acting, cheap sound and effects, this movie failed to deliver something believable and scary.
|Posted by Hairless_Blaq_Cat 3 years, 9 months ago
Had the beastie thingies looked more realistic and scarier, as well as a few minor adjustments to the script, this could have possibly been one of the bestest "found footage" films I'd ever seen. I still really enjoyed it, though. It managed to make my "Found Footage...", "Diamond In The Rough...", "Mighty Good Show", AND "Who Woulda Thunk?" playlists, plus get 6 2/3 out of 9 lives from me. Not too bad. The acting was well above average for the most part, the camera shots weren't nauseatingly shaky like in some found footage films, and the scenery was quite lovely. I was also pleased that it wasn't overly slow and drawn out in the beginning, too. Anyway, as I always say, this is my opinionation only and mine alone, so check it out for yourself and see what you think. MEOW!

terrible film, terrible script, acting was not good enough. no tension and no dynamics, i would avoid this at all costs in future. it lacked in every area, at some points it seemed the actors fluffed their lines and just carried on regardless. please some one just take a running slap at the cast and crew.
|Posted by delhirose 3 years, 10 months ago
Pretty lame movie, dont mind the video recording ones, but this script and actors were shocking......nothing much to see in the sense of horror, not sure what genre I would put this under. Not worth the watch.
|Posted by rudegator96 3 years, 10 months ago
not a bad flick...kept me interested...until the "creatures" showed up...cheap ef-x looked more like they belonged in a chinese new year parade than in a movie...totally ruined the whole thing for me...

|Posted by Drdmt 3 years, 10 months ago
Movie had a B- potential for a 'found footage' film but the acting was a C- at best. Certainly watchable with other elements including the flashbacks and flash forwards as well as the scenery.

|Posted by mikkaa 1 year, 5 months ago
well, not sure , I think its watchable and not to long so it kinda has the feel of a tv episode. 6/10
|Posted by waltlee 1 year, 5 months ago
The only thing that ruined this film for me was the constant darkness so you couldn't see what was going on,after a while it gets annoying,but I did like the storyline,some of the characters were a bit annoying,but the concept was good...I like the fact you couldn't see the creatures but heard them through howls,though they should have been revealed at least to some extend towards the end,you still never see them...enough of a creepy feel,but for a found footage film less darkness would have been nice!
|Posted by mrmikeypimp 2 years, 10 months ago
could of been so good...If only they made the monsters look better....but still an o.k movie...
|Posted by cheshrkat 3 years, 5 months ago
I was really looking forward to this movie. About half way through it I really was looking forward to it being OVER. Another great idea suffering from poor talent and a seriously low budget. I hate giving plot points away, but let me say this... You get a couple of clear views of the main creatures and ou come to realize that no-one involved in the film left any money to actually create a decent creature (I wont say what they look like, you have to suffer that discovery yourself like I did).
|Posted by busheepoo 3 years, 6 months ago
This movie sounds better than it was. It was really lame. Dumb acting, not even scary.
|Posted by kimathim 3 years, 10 months ago ( Edited 3 years, 10 months ago )
Not bad, but again it lacked luster . The whole story fell into this cheese-ball tale which fell apart toward the end, but I still enjoyed myself. I've grown very fond of found footage, as they seem to generate more terror than regular horror movies with tons of gore. 6/10

Weak U.S. Market Reflected at Cannes
Few U.S. Acquisitions as the Annual Film Festival Comes to a Close; Hollywood looks to 3-D
See Corrections & Amplifications item below.
This year's Cannes Film Festival saw more than its usual share of rainy and overcast days. But perhaps it was just a reflection of the general mood of the U.S. film market: In recent months, lackluster box-office numbers, stagnant DVD sales and the closing of labels such as Picturehouse and Warner Independent Pictures have drawn clouds over Hollywood's once-blue skies.
Cannes's three big films available for U.S. buyers -- James Gray's "Two Lovers" (starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Joaquin Phoenix), Steven Soderbergh's four-hour epic, "Che," and Charlie Kaufman's "Synecdoche, New York" -- all received mixed reactions from distributors; none had secured a buyer as of press time. No major American studios, such as Fox Searchlight or Disney's Miramax, had sealed any deals. And unfinished films such as Richard Linkater's "Me and Orson Welles" and "The Burning Plain" (starring Charlize Theron), which were slated as major potential buys, also failed to secure U.S. acquisitions.
"These films aren't selling immediately partly because they're challenging, and partly because they perhaps cost too much, but also because the economic model of theatrical releasing is at a terrible juncture because of rising costs and dipping revenues," said Howard Cohen, co-president of U.S. distributor Roadside Attractions. "That's a tough combo of factors."
The only significant activity among U.S. companies came from IFC Entertainment, whose half-dozen film purchases will be released via a combination of video-on-demand and theatrical release.
Sony Pictures Classics co-president Tom Bernard, who has been a fixture at Cannes for decades, said he and other distributors are just being cautious this year. "There are some good films in the market," said Mr. Bernard, who admitted that Sony Pictures Classics has interest in acquiring "Tyson," a documentary about boxer Mike Tyson. "I think the smart buyers are waiting for the last minute to make lower offers than the asking prices."
While U.S. sales were bleak, Cannes, which runs through May 25, surely saw some sunshine in the international marketplace. Sellers said the weakened dollar allowed for more foreign companies to take risks on U.S. titles.
"U.S. acquisitions were virtually non-existent, but internationally, we felt it was the opposite," said Steve Bickel, president of Film Department International, noting a particularly active market from South Korea. "They realized the exchange rate was favorable to them. We did business in virtually every country."
Indeed, Helen Lee Kim, president of Mandate International, said many films such as Drew Barrymore's directorial debut, "Whip It!," and a sci-fi film starring Milla Jovovich sold well abroad. "I would say the appetite for commercial movies is there, no matter how tough it is," she said.
This year's Cannes marketplace also saw several independent studios aggressively entering the 3-D market. Both Lionsgate and The Weinstein Co. announced the production of "My Bloody Valentine: 3D" and "Piranha 3-D," respectively. Film Department offered a look at "The Peak 3-D," a supernatural thriller set in the Himalayan mountains, and Belgium-based nWave Pictures closed deals in 35 countries on its 3-D animated "Fly Me to the Moon." (Summit Entertainment, which acquired the film last September, will release the film in the U.S. this August.)
To further bolster the 3-D market, Regal Entertainment announced a deal on Tuesday with RealD, a 3-D projection company, to install more than 1,500 new 3-D screens across the States.
The challenge for Lionsgate, The Weinstein Co. and Film Department, however, is getting foreign distributors to jump onboard these films in early "pre-buys" -- despite the fact that 3-D screens are not yet widespread abroad.
Ms. Kim, who handles Lionsgate's foreign sales, said many international distributors are being forced to adapt to 3-D because of Hollywood's recent rush to the new format. (She added that "My Bloody Valentine: 3D" sold overseas, but would not disclose details of the sales.) Major upcoming releases shot in 3-D include DreamWorks Animations' "Monsters vs. Aliens," 20th Century Fox's "Ice Age 3" and "Avatar," and Disney's "A Christmas Carol" and "Toy Story 3."
"They know that's the direction the industry is going," Ms. Kim said of foreign markets. "This is the wave of the future."
Indeed, nWave Pictures' Ben Stassen said that Russia increased its number of 3-D theaters from two to 60 in the last six months. But Film Department International president Steve Bickel says reaction to their 3-D project, "The Peak," has varied from country to country. "If you talk to someone in the U.K., where there exist some 85 screens, they can make this a success. But in France, they're so under-screened in 3-D, they can't contemplate 3-D on a stand-alone basis."
Production companies are hoping that by the time their films are completed in 2009, the international market will have caught up.
But as Mr. Stassen admitted, "Digital conversion is not as happening as fast as we had hoped."
Corrections & Amplifications:
Drew Barrymore's "Whip It!" and "The 4th Kind," a sci-fi film starring Milla Jovovich, did not have U.S. distributors as of May 27. The article previously stated that the movies had been acquired domestically.

So I have a dynamically created FLVPlayback object and for the most part everything is working just peachy.
However, when I load an MP4 file (via HTTP) with it, it will not play until the entire file is downloaded.
After doing some research, I used QTIndexSwapper2 to put the 'moov' atom at the beginning of the file, but it did not help.
Any ideas or suggestions? Using an RTMP server is not an option right now.
Many thanks.
EDIT The video starts playing when the buffering bar reaches about 80%. I don't know if this is just an inaccuracy in the buffering bar or if it's actually playing the video before it's fully downloaded.

Very cool
The cartoon had a rather interesting look to it like how the characters had the appearances of constant movement even when standing still.
the squiggling line work while usually seen as a flaw by the typical audience member is refreshing to see when compared to cartoons that look 100% clean.
In some weird way it looks more polished because for the most part tweens were not used to animate limbs but only when it is necessary and actually effective.
It didn't exactly sync up to the music 100% but the music seemed to act as background noise for the cartoon itself.
a little more rhythm to the way it was animated would have made an already strong piece of animation even stronger even just selecting a different song would have helped.
but for the most part the song sank up flawlessly in some places.
please make more.
lmao all this for a dinky little spam flash?
for once someone who actually knows how to animate wrote something.
I love this song :D
yea me 2
Im giving you a 10 because...
It's hard to make a flash. And it's not that bad, I kinda like it. I'll give you a 5 as well. Besides there's a lot of flashes that are really bad. And they sometimes get awards. Keep making flash. But try with all you got. I don't even have enough money to get the stuff to make flash. So good job.

Smart dynamic rotor control using active flaps on a small-scale wind turbine: aeroelastic modeling and comparison with wind tunnel measurements
In this paper, the proof of concept of a smart rotor is illustrated by aeroelastic simulations on a small-scale rotor and comparison with wind tunnel experiments. The application of advanced feedback controllers using actively deformed flaps in the wind tunnel measurements is shown to alleviate dynamic loads leading to considerable fatigue load reduction. The numerical method for aeroelastically simulating such an experiment is described, together with the process of verifying the methods for accurate prediction of the load reduction potential of such concepts. The small-scale rotor is simulated using the aeroelastic tool, load predictions are compared with the wind tunnel measurements, and similar control concepts are compared and evaluated in the numerical environment. Conclusions regarding evaluation of the performance of smart rotor concepts for wind turbines are drawn from this threefold research investigation (simulation, experiment and comparison).

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Geoff Bodine will make his second attempt to qualify the No. 64 Sprint Cup car for owner Larry Gunselman this weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
The 59-year-old Bodine will be among 49 drivers attempting to make Sunday's race. It will be his second attempt to qualify this season after failing to make the Daytona 500.
Bodine's brother, Todd, qualified the 35 for Sunday's race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and finished 37th after being sidelined with engine problems 227 laps into the 285-lap event.
Todd will drive the No. 35 car for owner Michael Hillman.
It is the fourth straight week that at least 48 cars have attempted to qualify.
