NEW YORK (Reuters) - Mathew Martoma, a former portfolio manager at billionaire Steven A. Cohen's SAC Capital Advisors hedge fund, was found guilty on Thursday of engaging in what prosecutors called the most lucrative insider trading scheme in U.S. history.
A federal jury in New York found Martoma guilty on all three of the conspiracy and securities fraud charges that he faced, over a scheme that allowed SAC Capital to make profits and avoid losses of $275 million.
The verdict was the eighth insider trading conviction of a current or former employee at SAC Capital, a $14 billion hedge fund that has long been in the cross-hairs of the FBI and Preet Bharara, the U.S. Attorney in Manhattan.
Martoma gave no apparent reaction as the verdict was read. His wife, Rosemary, sat up in her seat in court as the verdict was read, with tears going down her face. They exited the court holding hands.
As news photographers snapped pictures, Martoma walked stone-faced out of the courthouse and into a waiting SUV with his wife and defense team. They did not speak to reporters.
"We are very disappointed and we plan to appeal," Richard Strassberg, Martoma's lawyer, said through a spokesman.
U.S. District Judge Paul Gardephe did not immediately set a sentencing date. Martoma, 39, could face a maximum 45 years in prison, although the highest sentence to date in an insider trading case is 12 years.
The verdict came after a different jury in the same courthouse in December convicted Michael Steinberg, a portfolio manager at SAC Capital, on five conspiracy and securities fraud counts for his role in a separate insider trading scheme.
SAC Capital last year agreed to pay $1.8 billion in criminal and civil settlements and plead guilty to fraud charges stemming from insider trading by its employees.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is meanwhile seeking to bar Cohen from the financial services industry for failing to supervise Martoma and Steinberg.
The conviction continued an unbroken winning streak at trial for U.S. Attorney Bharara, who has secured guilty pleas or verdicts against 79 individuals since October 2009 as part of a broad crackdown by his office on insider trading on Wall Street.
"This unbroken string of wins for the government in insider trading cases will have huge impact," said Thomas Gorman, a defense lawyer at law firm Dorsey & Whitney. "It's getting widely circulated, so it does have a chilling effect of those in the trading business considering insider trading."
Martoma, who worked in SAC's CR Intrinsic Investors division, was accused of seeking out confidential information from doctors involved in a clinical trial of an Alzheimer's drug being developed by Elan Corp Plc and Wyeth, now owned by Pfizer Inc.
Based on a tip Martoma received a doctor about negative trial results for the drug, SAC Capital in July 2008 began selling its $700 million position in Elan and Wyeth before the data was made public later that month, prosecutors said.
"Martoma bought the answer sheet before the exam - more than once - netting a quarter billion dollars in profits and losses avoided for SAC, as well as a $9 million bonus for him," Bharara said in a statement.
Martoma chose to go to trial rather than cooperate with prosecutors in their investigation of Cohen. Such cooperation often results in leniency at sentencing.
"The time to cooperate is not after you've been found guilty it's before you go to trial," said C. Evan Stewart, a partner at Cohen & Gresser.
During almost five weeks of trial, prosecutors said that most of the trading took place in accounts controlled by Cohen. They also said that Martoma had a 20-minute phone call with Cohen after receiving information about the negative results.
While Cohen has not been criminally charged, Sidney Gilman, the doctor who tipped Martoma, said at trial than an FBI agent on approaching him the first time had called Martoma a "grain of sand" in what was an investigation of Cohen.
Strassberg, Martoma's lawyer, said during the trial that prosecutors erred in bringing the case "in their haste to make a case against someone who is not even in this courtroom: Mathew Martoma's boss, Steven Cohen.
A representative for SAC Capital declined to comment after the verdict.
At trial, prosecutors presented testimony of Gilman and another doctor, Joel Ross, who said they provided confidential information to Martoma during paid consultations through firms that connect investors with experts.
Gilman, then a professor at University of Michigan who chaired the drug's safety monitoring committee, had spoken with Martoma during more than 40 paid consultations arranged through expert networking firm Gerson Lehrman Group, earning more than $70,000 in the process, prosecutors said.
Gilman testified that after he was picked to present the drug trial's final results at a Chicago conference, he called Martoma on July 17, 2008, and told him the details.
Martoma two days later came to Michigan and met with him at the doctor's office and reviewed draft slides for the presentation, Gilman said.
Gilman, though, said he did not initially remember the 2008 office meeting when investigators questioned him about it. He only recalled some details as recently as two weeks before he took the stand, adding there were "still remains some holes in my memory.
Both doctors testified pursuant to non-prosecution agreements, a fact the defense sought to use to call into question their credibility. Both doctors had denied giving Martoma confidential information when first confronted by the
Martoma's lawyers also sought to provide alternative explanations for the stock sales and contended there was no meaningful difference between the final results and a preview of them described in a June 17, 2008, news release by Elan.
The case is U.S. v. Martoma, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, 12-cr-00973.

MongoDB::Tutorial - Getting started with MongoDB
version v0.704.1.0
The tutorial runs through the basic functionality of the MongoDB package. This is a good starting point if you have never used MongoDB before.
The tutorial assumes that you are running a MongoDB database server locally on the default port. You can download Mongo from http://www.mongodb.org.
Document-oriented database terms and their relational equivalents:
- Database
- Collection
- Document
Record or row
- MongoDB::OID
Autoincrementing primary key
use MongoDB loads most of the packages you'll need to interact with MongoDB: MongoDB::MongoClient, MongoDB::Database, MongoDB::Collection, and MongoDB::Cursor. To use special Mongo data types (see MongoDB::DataTypes), you have to include them separately. So, usually, to use Mongo, you'll start with at least:
use MongoDB;
use MongoDB::OID;
To get started, we have to connect to the database server. Because it's running locally on the default port, we need not pass any parameters to the MongoDB::MongoClient constructor:
my $client = MongoDB::MongoClient->new;
Now we're connected to the database server. Next we need a database to work with, we'll call it "tutorial". You need not do anything special to create the database, Mongo will create it on the fly.
my $db = $client->get_database( 'tutorial' );
The last part of the preliminary setup is to choose a collection. We'll be using the "users" collection to start out.
my $users = $db->get_collection( 'users' );
Again, there is no need to create the collection in advance, it will be created as needed.
Creating Documents
To add a document to the collection, we use the
insert function. It takes a hash reference which is saved to the collection.
$users->insert({"name" => "Joe",
"age" => 52,
"likes" => [qw/skiing math ponies/]});
Now there is a user in the collection.
When a document is inserted, it is given a
_id field if one does not already exist. By default, this field is a MongoDB::OID, 12 bytes that are guaranteed to be unique. The
_id field of the inserted document is returned by the
insert method.
my $id = $users->insert({"name" => "Bill"});
An efficient way to insert documents is to send many at a time to the database by using
batch_insert, which returns an array of the
_id fields of the documents inserted.
my @ids = $users->batch_insert(\@many_users);
Retrieving Documents
To retrieve documents that were saved to a collection, we can use the
find method.
my $all_users = $users->find;
To query for certain criteria, say, all users named Joe, pass the query a hash with the key/value pair you wish to match:
my $some_users = $users->find({"name" => "Joe"});
You can match array elements in your queries; for example, to find all users who like math:
my $geeks = $users->find({"likes" => "math"});
This being Perl, it is important to mention that you can also use regular expressions to search for strings. If you wanted to find all users with the name John and all variations of said name, you could do:
my $john = $users->find({"name" => qr/joh?n/i});
See "Regular Expressions" in MongoDB::DataTypes for more information.
As queries are hashes, they use a special syntax to express comparisons, such as "x < 4". To make the query a valid hash, Mongo uses $-prefixed terms. For example, "x < 4" could be expressed by:
my $doc321 = $collection->find({'x' => { '$lt' => 4 }});
Comparison operators can be combined to get a range:
my $doc32 = $collection->find({'x' => { '$gte' => 2, '$lt' => 4 }});
find returns a MongoDB::Cursor, which can be iterated over. It lazily loads results from the database. The following prints all of the users' names:
while (my $doc = $all_users->next) {
print $doc->{'name'}."\n";
A cursor can also be converted into an array of hash references. For example, to print the "name" field of the first result:
my @arr = $geeks->all;
print $arr[0]->{'name'}."\n";
Updating Documents
To change a document after it has been saved to the database, you must pass
update two arguments. The first is a query argument, identical to the previous section, to identify the document you want to change. The second is an argument that describes the change that you wish to make.
The change is described by $-prefixed descriptors. For example, to increment a field, we would write:
$users->update({"_id" => $id}, {'$inc' => {'age' => 1}});
To add an element to an array, we can use
$push. So, to add an element to the
"likes" array, we write:
$users->update({"_id" => $id}, {'$push' => {'likes' => 'reading'}});
To add a new field or change the type or value of an existing field, we use
$set. For example, to change the _id field to a username, we would say:
$users->update({"_id" => $id}, {'$set' => {'name' => 'joe_schmoe'}});
By default,
update operates on one matching document, and does nothing if no document matches the query. There are two options available to change this behavior.
Suppose we want to add a "gift" field to everyone whose birthday it is today. One way would be to find every person whose birthday it was and iterate through the user documents, updating each one. However, it would be much faster and easier to update multiple documents at once. We can do this by using an optional third parameter with
my $today = DateTime->now;
my $tomorrow = DateTime->now->set('day' => $today->day+1);
$users->update({"bday" => {'$gte' => $today, '$lte' => $tomorrow}},
{'$set' => {'gift' => $gift}},
{'multiple' => 1});
(This functionality was added in version 1.1.3 of the database and will not work in earlier versions.) Sometimes we may want update to create an element if it does not already exist. This is called an 'upsert' (a combination of an update and an insert). For example, the same code could be used for creating and updating a log document:
$pageviews->update({"url" => "www.example.com"},
{'$inc' => {"views" => 1}},
{'upsert' => 1});
If the pageview counter for www.example.com did not exist yet, it would be created and the "views" field would be set to 1. If it did exist, the "views" field would be incremented.
Deleting Documents
To delete documents, we use the
remove method. It takes the same type of hash queries do:
$users->remove({"name" => "Joe"});
remove with no parameters removes all of the objects in a collection. It does not delete the collection, though (in that in that it will still appear if the user lists collections in the database and the indexes will still exist). To remove a collection entirely, call
drop can also be used for whole databases:
Database Commands
There are a large number of useful database commands that can be called directly with $db->run_command. For example, to drop a collection, you can use:
$db->run_command({drop => $collection_name});
"drop" only requires one key/value pair, but for commands that require multiple fields, Mongo expects key/value pairs to be in a certain order. It will not recognize the command if they are not ordered command name first. Thus, if you are running a database command, you should probably use Tie::IxHash instead of a normal hash (normal hashes are not ordered).
For example, you can use a database command to create a capped collection like so:
my $cmd = Tie::IxHash->new("create" => "posts",
"capped" => boolean::true,
"size" => 10240,
"max" => 100);
This will create a capped collection called "posts" in the current database. It has a maximum size of 10240 bytes and can contain up to 100 documents.
Now that you know the basic syntax used by the Perl driver, you should be able to translate the JavaScript examples in the main MongoDB documentation (http://www.mongodb.org) into Perl.

K'NAAN: the name belongs in capitals, and I'd like to think it might end up as iconic and logo-like as Prince or Sting. For this man - the media machine willing - has all the credentials for being the first crossover African pop star.
Charlie's review of The Dusty Foot Philosopher' in yesterday's OMM (and also reproduced on this website as album of the month) along with further airplay on Andy Kershaw's show will hopefully help nudge BMG Canada into giving it a fully promoted release here, but, as we all know, his destiny won't depend on his exceptional talents as a lyricist and songwriter - which are unquestionable - but on the hidden mechanisations of the music business with it's thinly veiled xenophobia and it's increasing unwillingness to take risks.
But where is the risk? Is the question I'd ask: K'Naan sings in an Americanised Eminem-tinged English; his songs have a cutting edge and a commercial sheen; his lyrics whilst being intensely personal are also grippingly dramatic, moving, and even laugh-out-loud funny; this debut album is already making waves wherever it's heard. And it's hip-hop - the mainstay of 21st Century pop throughout the world. This man could clean up!
But K'Naan's potential for super-stardom is really not the point. At least not as far as most readers of this forum are concerned. Is he any good? Is the only relevant question here.
Well, having listened to the album half a dozen times now, I'd say yes. And to save any of you with short attention spans needing to read the rest of this piece, I'd add: this guy is the real thing. Go and buy his CD now.
However, for those who want to know more: read on.
Kurt Vonnegut writes in his new memoir:
Laughter: God knows, that's the soul seeking relief.
This was Vonnegut's remembered response at coming up from a bomb shelter to see his beloved Dresden was no more, having suffered the worst massacre in European history with 350,000 people killed over night. K'Naan's laughter is of the same kind. Up until the age of 13 he must have seen and experienced many things which may have prompted the same laughter of despair, because 'The Dusty Foot Philosopher' is full of barely repressed explosive anger tempered by sly humour and wit.
Using the same relentless declamatory tone and rhythms as Eminem would use to tell you what a hard time his ex wife was giving him, K'Naan - against a slowly building rhythmic backdrop - introduces us to his childhood in 'What's Hardcore?':
We got no police, ambulance or fire fighters
We start riots by burning car tires
You can't go half a block without a road block
You don't pay at the road block you get your throat shot
And each road block is set up by these gangsters
And each gangster go by different standards
for example the evening is a no go
unless you want to wear a bullet like a logo
in the day you should never take the alleyway
the only thing that validates you is the AK…
I'ma spit these verses because I feel annoyed
And I'm not going to quit until I fill the void
And If I rhymed about home and got descriptive
I'd make 50 Cent look like Limp Bizkit…
And then the chorus goes:
Are you hardcore? Really?…Are you hardcore? hmmm...
- Perhaps the most incisive and cool response imaginable to the countless UK and US rappers who continue to delight in glamorising gun culture of there own making, as oppose to one inflicted upon them. In many ways this song sums up the whole an album as it delivers deadpan shocks in one line then sweetens the pill in the next. K'Naan is the most extraordinary lyricist I've heard since...well, I can't think when. And he actually learnt English phonetically by rapping along to US hip hop albums owned by his father. But he can also be self-reflective as well as dramatic. Here is a moment when he dwells the moral quandary inherent in writing songs about his fraught past, and friends who didn't survive that past:
Dear departed I'm now known as a recording artist
Spilling what little remains of your memories in the process
Bitter a little, but making your names into a colossus.
And here's some lines from 'My Old Home' - memories of a more idyllic time in Somalia before he and his family took the last commercial flight out of there:
The round cemented pot kept the raindrops cool
Neighbours and dwellers spattered their foreheads softly
Loud children played football with a sanded rock
No one knew they were poor
All innocent of greed's judgement
But such lucid, vivid lyrics would just fall flat if the music wasn't superb too. He doesn't just find his sound and groove, and stick to it, there is a huge amount of sonic adventurousness here, cleverly harnessed to be the right side of commercial, creatively utilising samples of Tracy Chapman, Sade, and Peter Tosh amongst others, but never having them carry the full weight of the song's melodic interest.
Like all great artists, K'Naan knows whose shoulders he stands on. Influences mentioned in interviews include: Marley, Nina Simone, Youssou N'dour, Salif Keita, Nas, Fela Kuti and even Zadie Smith. In other words, like all artists of substance, he knows his stuff - he doesn't just go to hip-hop of the last few years, as a shallower young musician might - he knows the river is both deeper and wider.
OK, in conclusion - to be a bit more level headed about it - some of the album is a little overwrought and the Eminem comparison is a little to close for comfort at times in his delivery, but who am I to say this man's work is overwrought when I've not walked in his dusty shoes?
For a first album 'The Dusty Foot Philosopher is extraordinary. But because of its lyrical intensity and the sense that it's a great unburdening of emotions, images and feelings, it only begs the question - what will K'Naan write about next, and has he poured it all out in this single work?

Sorry for creating a new thread, but I wanted to start something that I could keep updating throughout my project.
Since the slash was released, I have wanted to turn it into a hummer. Well, recently I've made some contacts with some people in the right fields of work (Rapid Prototype machines, rubber mold & Casting, Thermal-forming) and am now in the process of turning my wish, into a project and following it to completion.
Ill keep this post updated with photos and progress for those who wish to follow it.
My initial problem was the design and concept stage. Being a level designer for a few game companies, I know 3D Studio fairly well (in no way am I a pro as its been 7+ years since ive done anything in it) so I decided the best way is to start off with designing a simple Slash chassis to scale that I can use to virtually fit and adjust the body to fit. Its not 100% perfect down to the Millimeter, but, it is close enough to get a fairly decent idea of what the prototype body will look like and allow me to see any obvious problems right away.
There it is.. Some wheels (33.2cm wheel base, 10.5cm diameter, 5cm wide), a place holder for the chassis and nurf bars, place holders for the bumpers and of course the body posts (set at the height of the shocks being compressed until the truck bottoms out)
This will give me a decent base to work from.
Next was the Hummer body.
I wanted to create a HMMWV (Hummer 1) but, the wheel wells didnt line up very well at all, it wasnt wide enough and looked funny when i scaled it to the Slash wheel base, and the front wheels wernt even close to clearing the wheel wells even with some tweaking, so I abandoned that version and was thinking about the Concept Hummer HX (Google it). Again though, after mocking it up in 3d studio, it just wasnt happening.
I was going to put the hummer on the back burner and do up a Touareg car instead, but PontiacGT201 on the forums gave me an idea I thought just might work, so back to the hummer I went.
He suggested I do up a Rally hummer body, which looks like this
It seems to have everything im looking for in a body, large front wheel wells, able to adjust the scale without it looking too funny.. so.. off to 3D Studio.
I came up with this very quick, and early mock up
As you can see, it needs a little tweaking still, but it shows me that it can fit quite well.. So, im going to take the weekend to work on a polished version of it, exactly how I want to see it fit, and meet with my rapid prototype buddy on Saturday to see if he can see any flaws i need to address
great,,,now I have to subcribe to this one too...lol.....make the mold strong...you might end up selling a few of these once you make it......seems simple enough after the design process and clay sculpture . check this out
just an idea here,
could you use the measurements off of this body, http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...K3&P=**Missing Data**
and portion it here or there as needed, for more of a h2 you would see on the streetvs the rally deal!! just my thoughts.
rustler vxl 2.4
Taking the dimensions wouldn't help unfortunately, i dont have access to a 3D Scanner, and the dimensions on the site tell me basics, like overall width/height, but they dont tell me things like how high the hood is compared to the body posts, or how much travel the wheel has and if it will hit anything while the springs are compressed. Its one reason im putting the H1 on the back burner, because though the body could fit just fine if the car is running straight, soon as you turn the wheel and dip the nose a little the tire rubs on the fender/wheel well. So id need to redesign the whole front, but, then it wouldnt look like a hummer 1 anymore if i did..
you may need someone with the same type body to tell you what you need to know, like i said it was just an idea.

Got back from a few hour meeting with the Rapid prototype guy today, talks went well. One of the hurdles we are facing is that the epoxy that the 3d print is made from doesn't stand up to heat well, so he found some higher temp epoxy that we think we can use. If that wont work, then it looks like ill have to cast a negative of the prototype in sillicon, then fill the sillicon mold with a resin or poly vinal material in order to create a copy of the prototype. This i know wold work well, and it stands up to 800degree heat before it gets soft, but it also adds about a 700 dollar expense to the project. There are a few alternative options we are looking into, and one of them is coating the prototype with a few layers of car enamel. That stuff is pretty tough and heat resistant but we arnt sure exactly what the outcome will be. He gave me about 1/2 dozen little 3" by 1.5 inch houses i can use to experiment with and come up with our final option. Ill let you know the testing results when we do them next week. Until then, i am going to finish up painting the bathroom, and work on the 3d model more cleaning it up.
Ill post a pic if the final model when its complete and ready for the prototype
Was up until 3am last night polishing the 3D model up and making it look more like a rally hummer then just a street variant of the H3. I have to fiddle with the bumper still once I adjust everything to the Slash chassis, but otherwise im almost ready for my prototype shell.

I'm jealous of your 3D Studio Max skills. I'm tryin to learn Maya. Look forward to seeing more.

Your nitro is fat...It ate my Brushless Dust!!!!
What are you planning to do about the rear body mounts?
momomotorsports - Slash - PE Slash 4x4
Suscribed!!!!!!! I want one and will race it on my 4x4 slash.
Maya is a nice program.. about the same learning curve as max though.. i was lucky to learn from actual animation artists, doing it myself would have been a huge undertaking..
The above was actually made with Sketchup. I started in max, but Sketchup fits on a USB key and can be portable so it allowed me to use it at work when i was bored so i swapped. it did what i needed and was easy to use.
momo - You will have to get longer aftermarket body posts to fit the body is all..
I don't know how crazy I am about the vents on the hood. Unless you take a bunch of detail out of them I can see it causing a problem with the manufacturing process.
Are you just eyebaling the design around the pictures or are you using measurments (taken from pictures) to keep the scale correct?
I think you are doing a wonderful job, it looks amazing!

Yeah im still fiddling with the vents, the pics I found have the curved vents like that, but, im not sure how much i like them. I might change them up still to a more classic hood vent look.
Im not taking many measurements from the pictures themselves for a couple of reasons. The main reason though is that the Slash chassis, is much different then any sort of scale car. If you blew up a slash to real size it would be the equivalent of a 11 foot wide hummer with only enough room for 1 door, its really kind of awkward. Plus, I cant have too many sharp corners or dips in the body, so I have to round a few things out (like the connection from the back fender to the body) on my model so the lexan doesnt wrinkle when forming.. but im getting it as close as i can within the restrictions I have.
Right now im just focusing on building a Slash chassis to scale (down to the millimeter) so that will take up most of this week, and hopefully by the weekend ill address the hood vents more and have everything to exact scale. Then its off to the 3d printer!
This is cool stuff. Does the 3d printer make a solid object? Or is it hollow, then you lay lexan over it?
Either way can be done, however if it is going to be used as a tool I would think it would be solid or very thick.Originally Posted by ducati777
What are the bed dimensions of your (their) rapid prototype machine? Also keep in mind that depending on what file type you give to the printer you may end up with aliased curves, which will take much sanding to smooth.

The printer is a smaller one, so he will need to print it in sections, but it wont be a problem becaus eyou can "stitch" them together after they are out.
It definatly wont be solid. The costs are pretty high to run the printer and a solid shell at that size would be pretty wastefull. The binder is quite strong, I have a little house he gave me and it takes quite an effort to break it with your hand so we are going to make it about 5mm thick. At this thickness I should be able to stand on it without it breaking, however, im also going to fill it with an very ridged expanding foam. Once the foam dries, it becomes almost as solid as plaster, so there wont be any chance of anything happening to it.
The problem i am sorting out now, is that the thermalformer temps are upwards of 400f. Well the binder/epoxy for the printer is good up until only 150f or so, then it gets soft and would break apart. There is another epoxy we are going to import thats ok to about 350f, but thats still 50f off. However, it might be alright, because the thermalformer is only at 450 to heat the plastic, and within a few seconds, the plastic starts cooling, so, it might not be a problem.
If it is though, then we will be taking the prototype, and creating a silicon rubber mold from it, then pouring poly-resin into that mould to create a copy. The poly-resin is good up to 800f, so that will definatly be ok at the thermal former. The other benifit is that i can create 3 or 4 of the same cast, which means i can get more bodies pressed per time, lowering my costs per body by 1/3. However, the cost to make the resin castings is almost as much as the cost of the 3d print, so, were still shopping around and talking to thermal forming companies on solutions.

I figured this would already be designed and molded by now...lol
Haha thanks Blackfox ;P
Its taking quite a while to make sure I only have to pay for the materials on ONE prototype :P
End of may I should have a few bodies rolling off the table
Heres tonight's work
Because I need to make sure the prototype is going to fit exact, I needed a more exact scale of my chassis. So I tossed sketchup into millimeter units, and grabbed a ruler and my slash.
The above is the front section and chassis done. I should be able to finish the back section, bumper and wheels tomorrow (if the GF doesnt make me install the tap in the bathroom instead)
Accurate to the MM (where it counts anyhow like body post size/position, ect) the other stuff is just me getting too detailed but having a little fun learning the program as well.
dude you do some amazing work. Id love to be able to do that stuff. I mean its just cool. If you dont mind, Id like to print the 2 chassie ones. But I want to ask you before I do. I just think theres cool looking. Cant wait till you get the bodys out.

^^^ very nice work...and I can understand getting into it and making too much detail. Can wait to see it come to life though (minus the hood "vents"..fenders are ok though...just reminds me alot of the Manta with both)

Traxxas should just cash my checks for me
Thanks for the compliments! Its encouraging and makes me want to work on it more.
Fox: Are you saying i should ditch the hood vents all together, or just change what I have to something more hummer-classic
PM me your email, ill send you larger ones if you like, and it will have the rear end on it for you if you want.
I am so impressed with this thread! I think I do good to just install what is commercially available. You guys who take this to a much higher level deserve a ton of respect. I too am eager to see finished product! Subscribed!!
To err is human, to arr is pirate!
Personally I would ditch the hood vent(easier to apply sponsor decals etc.) and keep the ones off to the sides. Looks awesome!!!!Originally Posted by Telnets
yeah...ditch the hood vents period IMO....Its too much for me....it makes it harder for any masking also...and certain painting (carbon fiber hoods) the ones on the fenders are ok...but like a smoother look myself...but its your design.....some people (including yourself) may like them. Some wont...you know how all that goes....Im really loving the general design itself...I used to run a hummer body WAY back in the day on my old Tmaxx. When you get these ready...Ill buy one from you....Ill go ahead and say you will make some good money on this when you get it ready.

Well, personally, ive never seen a hummer without a hood vent, but good points on the painting/masking..
I think what ill do is play around with 1 or 2 designs and then post them to get some feedback, however, Ill keep a clean version incase they dont look right, and maybe ill try something like on the Losi Strike body, and just have a small "scoop" instead.. it would be subtle, still easy to mask, but add SOME detail to the hood.. (as well as strength to it)
Ill keep a copy of the clean version as well and revert back to that if everything i try fails
This is getting interesting... I want one.
I vote no vents on hood.
Fun looking stuff. I was trying to draw a chasis is MS word the other night. Its harder than it looks for all you internet engineers out there.

the prototyper wont change powders for me to one of the powders & epoxies that are flexable when it cures (its about a 900 dollar expense for materials and labor), so im stuck with a hard plaster-type of a prototype.
I thought about having him print the inverse mold and cast the resin inside that, but doing so means to release the cast, I would have to destroy the prototype after the cast cures. I would normaly not have an issuw with that, but it would be my first time pouring a cast, and I dont know how comfortable i am destroyting my only mold if i screw up the cast prosess.
A flexable rubber/sillicon mold would be ideal, as it bends enough to release the cast, but adds 700 dollars in materials to the cost of creating it.
Since im trying to do this one on somewhat of a budget (i gave myself 1000 dollars to work with) i think the option i may go with, is have the prototype done up, fill it with rigid foam, and just cast as many bodies as i can get out of it for the first run (estimation of between 10 - 50)
Of thoes casts, I will keep the first 2 or 3 shells "in storage" and if say, i get more orders and need a new cast, then i would be able to cast a buck from thoes shells, which should be almost exact copies of the prototype.
For this run, again because i dont know if im going to sell 1000 of these, or 4 of them, i think that would be my most cost effective solution.. unless I find someone in town whos cast rubber molds before and could just help me out making sure i do it right, then i would invest the money into that knowing it would be properly done
Last edited by Telnets; 05-12-2010 at 11:00 AM.
I just got off the phone with a company in town that does custom manufacturing, i took a shot in the dark and asked about them building molds and they said "oh yeah we do that all the time for metal casts" and then i asked if they worked with 3d printing at all, again which they said "sure, we get lots of that"
After another few questions he mentioned that it was per hour basis, and doesnt think it would take too long to pour my mold out of sillicon/rubber, and it was promising when he said "probably an hour or two work" so i may have found my solution to creating a re-usable cast.
This is great, because when i go to the thermal former, i can "slam" 3 or 4 bodies at once, rather then 1 at a time, which custs my per body cost quite a bit
sweet man. sounds good.

Ireland's government-funded Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) watchdog organization has announced that they're launching an investigation into the death of Savita Halappanavar, the 31-year-old dentist who was denied an abortion after doctors informed her that she would miscarry but could not remove the fetus until its heartbeat officially stopped. Two and a half days later, it did—but it was also too late for Halappanavarm, who was was rushed to University Hospital Galway and died of septicaemia and E.coli ESBL shortly after.
However, the inquiry is (understandably) unlikely to placate her husband, Praveen Halappanavar, who believes that HIQA's findings won't be neutral and blames the two-day timelapse and pregnancy termination refusal for his wife's blood poisoning. As the solicitor representing Mr. Halappanvar puts it, "My client has always made his position very clear... He wants a public inquiry. He has made it clear he wants to get to the truth of the matter, so I don't think that the framework of HIQA will suffice."
If there's any silver lining to this tragedy, it's that the 20-year debate and confusion over abortion in Ireland may finally come to a head. Irish law isn't clear precisely on when the threat to the mother's life is enough to justify an abortion, so it's largely left up to the subjectivity of individual doctors (and, of course, their own personal beliefs). Halappanavar and his legal team hope to submit their case to the European Court of Human Rights, who took on Ireland's abortion ban back in 2010.
A 10,000-strong protest marched in Dublin last Saturday in response to Halappanavar's death and held a candlelight vigil outside the office of Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny.

BOSTON, Mass.—After falling just short in game one, UMass Boston avoided being swept on back-to-back days-with a six-run rally,, capped off by a three-run walkoff seventh inning, to earn a doubleheader split with Curry College Wednesday afternoon at the UMB Softball Field.
The Colonels took game one by a 2-1 margin behind a complete-game five hitter from sophomore Taylor Ahearn, but couldn't put the Beacons away in game two. UMass Boston fell behind 6-0 through 2.5 innings, but the Beacons scored the final seven runs of the game and earned the walk-off win behind a three-run seventh.
With the Beacons' victory, UMass Boston moved to 11-21 on the year, while Curry College fell to 18-13.
UMass Boston's three seniors, Sue Killilea (Abington, Mass.), Taryn Asta (Marshfield, Mass.) and Kelsey Souza (Braintree, Mass.), all finished with a team-high three hits on the day. Killilea tied the UMB program record for career doubles in game two, when she bashed a double to left field in the bottom of the fifth, to tie Andrea Ciarletta ('07) with 32 career two-baggers.
Game One: Curry College 2, UMass Boston 1
Curry College took game one behind the bat of sophomore Ariel LaRosa and the arm of Ahearn.
LaRosa finished 4-for-4 with a home run and two RBI, while Ahearn picked up her team-leading seventh win of the season, by limiting the Beacons to five hits and one earned run in seven innings.
Lyndsey Capra (Lowell, Mass.) picked up the only UMB RBI, as she singled home Souza in the fifth inning, after the senior third baseman had tripled with one out.
UMass Boston sophomore Michelle Zullo (Everett, Mass.) picked up the tough loss, allowing 10 hits and two earned runs in seven innings. The right-hander struck out three and allowed one walk.
After a scoreless first two innings, LaRosa put the Colonels ahead 1-0 in the top of the third, when she rocketed the first pitch she saw from Zullo over the left field fence.
Curry tacked on another run in the top of the fifth inning, when leadoff hitter Megan Flaherty walked, moved over to second on a sacrifice bunt and scampered home on a LaRosa single to left field.
The Beacons countered in the bottom half of the inning with a run of their own. With one out and no one on, Souza belted a triple into the left-center gap and raced around to third with her second triple of the year. Capra followed with a bloop single that fell just in front of center fielder Amy Nolan, to cut the Curry lead to 2-1.
UMass Boston threatened in the top of the sixth when Killilea reached with no outs, but Curry College turned their third double play of the contest to erase any comeback hopes.
Game Two: UMass Boston 7, Curry College 6
A day after watching their own 6-4 seventh inning lead fall short, UMass Boston turned the tables, scoring three runs in the bottom of the seventh on four hits.
After Curry jumped out to a 6-0 lead in the top of the third, UMass Boston chipped away at the lead with a run in the third, three more in the fifth and the final three in the bottom of the seventh.
With the bases loaded and one out and the Beacons trailing 6-5, Capra sent a hard ground ball to third that bounced off of LaRosa and into left field-to allow Haley Dutton (Milton, Mass.) and Souza to come into score and give UMB a 7-6 win.
Killilea paced the Beacons with three hits and two runs in the contest, while Asta added three hits, a run and two RBI out of the two-hole. Souza chipped in with two hits and two RBI, while sophomore left fielder Kristina Bove (Medford, Mass.) stayed red-hot with two hits in three at-bats.
Freshman starter Emily Gray (New Bedford, Mass.) earned the victory by allowing five hits and six runs, four earned, in seven innings. After giving up six runs on four hits in the first three innings, Gray limited the Colonels to just one hit and no runs over the final four frames.
Melissa Donoghue took the loss for Curry, by allowing seven runs, four earned, on 14 hits in 6.1 innings.
Curry College took a 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning on two hits and a costly UMB error. With two on and no outs, LaRosa picked up where she ended in game one, with an RBI single to left to put Curry up 1-0. Kaitlyn Maderios and Donoghue followed with RBI groundouts to push the lead to 3-0 through just five batters.
Maderios would be back at it again in the third inning, as she cleared the bases with a three-run RBI double to the wall in right-center field, that put the Colonels up 6-0 with no outs in the inning.
The Beacons began to chip into the deficit in the bottom of the third, when Killilea and Asta opened the frame with back-to-back singles, moved up 60 feet on a groundout, and Killilea came in to score on Samantha Hemstock 's (Northford, Conn.) RBI groundout.
UMass Boston cut the Curry lead to 6-4 in the fifth, behind some more clutch hitting from their seniors. After back-to-back hits from Bove and Killilea put two runners in scoring position with no outs, Asta hit an RBI double just inside the left-field line to plate both runners and make it 6-3. After a double play wiped out Asta and put two outs on the board, Souza plated Erika Vecchiet (Pequannock, N.J.), who had reached on a single, with an RBI single to center field.
Two more scoreless Curry at-bats set the Beacons up for their first come-from-behind walk-off win of the season, after winning two mercy-rule games via walkoffs earlier this year.
Asta started the Beacons off with a single to center and moved to second on a wild pitch, before Vecchiet was retired on a hard grounder to second base. Hemstock followed with her second hit of the day to put runners on the corners and then was pinch run for by Dutton.
UMass Boston made it 6-5 with another RBI single to center from Souza and Natalia Bouyea (East Longmeadow, Mass.) loaded the bases when Paige Smigiel couldn't handle Bouyea's grounder to second.
With the bases loaded and the tying run at second, Capra sent a shot that deflected off LaRosa and scored two, sending the Beacons bench pouring out of the dugout to mob Souza at home plate.
UMass Boston will take to the road Saturday afternoon when they take on Plymouth State University in a Little East Conference doubleheader beginning at 1 p.m.

Attorney General Terry Goddard announced today that his office has filed an enforcement action against Second Chance Body Armor, Inc., for violation of Arizona's Consumer Fraud Act. The complaint charges Second Chance with deception in the advertising and sale of bulletproof vests manufactured with "Zylon®"fiber, which Second Chance warranted to provide protection for five years. "Second Chance knew early that Zylon® degrades rapidly and permanently when exposed to such common conditions as high humidity and heat, fluorescent light and sunlight," said Goddard. "Second Chance failed to disclose this information or even warn its customers about the conditions known to cause degradation."
The problems with Zylon® came to light in June 2003, when a Forest Hills, Pennsylvania police officer was seriously injured by a .40 caliber bullet that passed through his Second Chance "Ultima®" vest. In the wake of this and other events, Second Chance informed its customers that it had discontinued two Zylon® models, theUltima® and the Ultimax®, on the grounds that it had discovered an "unexpected decrease in Zylon® fiber strength." "In fact," said Goddard, "Second Chance was well aware long before the Forest Hills incident thatZylon® suffered substantial degradation problems, but continued to sell those vests without warning its customers."
Although Second Chance has offered its Ultima® and Ultimax® customers a choice between free "upgrades" to the vests and price discounts on non-Zylon replacement vests, the Attorney General's complaint seeks a full refund of the purchase price of the Zylon vests. According to Goddard, the "upgrade packs" are not certified by the National Institute of Justice and therefore provide inadequate assurance of protection. While Second Chance permits customers to "trade in" the Ultima® and Ultimax® vests still in warranty for lower-cost non-Zylon models, Second Chance only allows partial "credit" on the trade in. In other words, "even though Second Chance sold bulletproof vests it now acknowledges may be defective, Second Chance requires its customers to pay additional money before Second Chance will supply a functional vest." Another major problem, according to Goddard, is that Second Chance continues to sell the "Tri-Flex®," a "hybrid" vest that uses Zylon® and other materials to provide ballistic protection. While there have been no recorded failures of the Tri-Flex®, according to Goddard, "knowing what we now know about Zylon®, it is unacceptable that Second Chance should be permitted to sell Tri-Flex® vests in Arizona without having to demonstrate to a court that the Tri-Flex® will provide protection."
Among other things, the Attorney General's complaint seeks to: (i) force Second Chance to refund the full price of all Zylon® vests purchased since July 1998; (ii) prevent Second Chance from selling any Zylon® body armor in Arizona (including the Tri-Flex®) until Second Chance has established to the satisfaction of the Court that the body armor will protect the wearer throughout the period for which the armor is warranted; and (iii)impose a penalty of up to $10,000 for each willful violation of the Consumer Fraud Act.

DALLAS — DO we dare to hope that the Bush administration is finally at an end?
After four years of bending the Constitution, the constitutional law professor now in the White House is trying to unloose the Gordian knot of W.'s martial and moral overreaches after 9/11.
Safely re-elected, President Obama at long last spoke bluntly about the Faustian deals struck by his predecessor, some of them cravenly continued by his own administration.
In a speech at the National Defense University, Obama talked about how we "compromised our basic values," and he concluded with a slap at W.: "Our victory against terrorism won't be measured in a surrender ceremony at a battleship or a statue being pulled to the ground."
On the eve of the president's speech, I was at the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum here, watching the film of Saddam's statue being pulled to the ground.
It's remarkable that Obama is trying to escape the shadow of the Bush presidency just as W. is trying to escape the shadow of the Bush presidency. Browsing the library, you wonder if these two presidents are complete opposites after all, as you see how history was shaped by an arrogant, press-averse, father-fixated, history-obsessed, strangely introverted chief executive.
Robert Draper, the author of "Dead Certain: The Presidency of George W. Bush," perused the library with me and observed: "So 43 grew up entitled but could display a commoner's touch, while 44 grew up hardscrabble yet developed this imperial mien. The former is defined by incuriosity, the latter by self-absorption. One is a late-blooming artist, the other a precocious writer. They can each make you kind of miss the other."
Obama's compelling speech on Thursday was his way of saying he didn't want the seductive but morally dicey drone program he inherited from W. to define his own presidency. The way it had been going, one of the killer robots, hanging from the ceiling, might have made a fitting centerpiece for an Obama library.
W.'s library highlights his role in launching the Global War on Terror, an Orwellian phrase designed to conflate the sins of Osama, who was responsible for 9/11, and the sins of Saddam, who was not. That was the fatal mistake and hallmark of the Bush era. W., Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld declared war on a tactic, stoked fear as a smokescreen and treated pre-emptive attacks as just.
Better late than never, Obama brought his lapidary logic and legal cautions to bear. "Neither I nor any president can promise the total defeat of terror," he said. "We will never erase the evil that lies in the hearts of some human beings nor stamp out every danger to our open society."
Conservatives can honk, as Senator Saxby Chambliss did, that Obama's speech "will be viewed by terrorists as a victory." But this president has killed more top Qaeda operatives than Bush did. While W.'s bullhorn vow after 9/11 to catch the "people who knocked these buildings down" plays every few minutes at his library, I couldn't find any photos of Osama or acknowledgment of Bush's failure to catch him. Obama's library will have a wing for that feat.
You could fill an entire other library with what's not in W.'s. Cheney and Rummy have been largely disappeared, and it is Condi Rice who narrates the 9/11 video. You won't see the iconic "Mission Accomplished" photo, or that painful video in which W. keeps reading "The Pet Goat" to children after learning that America is under attack, or the notorious "flyover" photo of a desultory Bush jetting from Crawford to the White House and looking through the window of Air Force One at Katrina's devastation.
Decision Points Theater — a whiny "Well, you try being the Decider" enterprise — lets you make the decisions after getting taped briefings on W.'s crises from actors playing experts. But it is rigged with so many false binary options that the visitors I voted with ended up agreeing with Bush's patently wrong calls on Iraq and Katrina.
Mostly, aside from the word "freedom" reverberating endlessly, we see the kinder, gentler W. conjured by Laura the Librarian. The once-shielded twins are ubiquitous, as is Barney. (An interactive game lets you help Barney find his ball.)
The big display on W.'s stellar record on AIDS in Africa features a letter from the president on White House stationery with the salutation, "Yo Bono!"
You can be forgiven for thinking you've wandered into the Gore presidential library when you come upon a wall devoted to protection of the ocean and odes to "vital wetlands" and "marine habitats." Who knew W. was passionately on the side of the humphead parrotfish?
Proving that the library is more a monument to Laura's artful airbrushing than W.'s artless leadership, there's a swank Café 43 with fancier fare than W.'s cherished PB&J's, and a gift shop featuring Laura's favorite books, from Dostoyevsky's "Brothers Karamazov" to Truman Capote's "Music for Chameleons."
W. missed a bet not selling reproductions of his charming nude self-portraits and Barney paintings on posters, T-shirts and dog bowls. Far more interesting than packets of Texas bluebonnet seeds.

I was never entirely pleased with most Democrats or Republicans. There is always a certain amount of negotiating and pandering in politics. Incumbents enjoy power. Those of us who choose to avoid the challenge for personal reasons must tolerate all that is inept in politics. Unfortunately, the most inept, inhumane, and unenforceble set of civil laws are those that involve lawful immigration. It seems that Newt Gingrich is the only Republican willing to admit it and seek a solution.
America has forgotten its roots; it restricts lawful immigration to an outrageous extent. Much of it is geared by PACs started by zero population growth advocates, who can no longer advocate pro choice. Our unenforceble rules are geared to permanently disqualify productive, yet unlawful residents. These folks will take the abuse and still live in the U.S. We now permanently bar too many foreign spouses of U.S. Citizens from lawful immigration for mere civil immigration violations.
As result, what do Americans do? Well, many U.S. Citizens rebel privately. They believe that the U.S. Government refuses or is unable to adequately fund enforcement. If the Government did, there are many more native born and naturalized U.S. Citizens who can be detained without a speedy trial and deported by mistake. Yes, a drivers license is not enough! What about that shabby looking birth certificate! And no, an expired U.S. Passport is not acceptable proof of Citizenship!
Our current set of immigration laws lacks a moral compass. The Republicans have feigned, or near complete selective, ignorance of America's current Immigration laws. Mitt Romney catcalls "amnesty" for all programs geared to help DHS clear some of the enforcement docket. As a result, he does an disservice to the G.O.P.
I believe that Romney feeds on a vindictive set of Americans who are unaware that many long term foreign born U.S. Residents are permanently disqualified from a green card, even if they left the U.S. for consular processing.
Many of those who may qualify for a future legalization program, not an amnesty program, have lived in the U.S. for decades. Many were dragged over the border by their parents. Many were shoved in blankets and driven over the border. These children, now in their 30s or 40s had no choice. Now, the read, speak and understand English better than many Native born Americans. Many also pay taxes.
These kids are Ours. One of Ronald Reagan's legacies was Legalization. Yes, the program ended! For the Republican Party leaders to claim that the G.O.P. is pious, yet remain unwilling to forgive the stranger in Our Land is anti-Christian and simply sacrilegious.
Those who read the Bible or Tanakh know that we are to welcome the stranger as if we were strangers in the land of Israel. The Exodus from Egypt was caused by ramped up aggression and jealousy. This lead to eventual edicts, followed by impressment and slavery against those who were made unwelcome. What took place in Nazi Germany that led to the Holocaust was an effort to de-personalize those of the Jewish faith.
What has happened in the U.S. is that we have forgotten that people are unlawfully present, not 'illegal.' Contraband and drugs are illegal, not people. At what point can we admit that there must be a statute of limitations on the civil offense of entering without inspection? Perhaps, we need a limitation on prosecution for the crime of unlawful re-entry, as well!
The current civil and criminal immigration legal systems have yet to create such statute of limitations! Why? Well, Republicans are unable to forgive. Perhaps, the Tea Party is unable to accept that law and order requires a balancing of the scales. Our immigrations laws remain imbalanced and geared against those for whom America remains dependent. As a result, the system has epically failed as a just and righteous orderly program, but for the administrators that are required to enforce it.
To date, there is only one Republican who recognizes the Reagan Legacy. That is Newt Gingrich. The rest seem to be affiliated with another political mentality. I hope that those of us who really read the scriptures learn to have an impact on Rome, rather than simply tolerate when Christians get thrown to the lions, tigers and bears.
A number of our DHS detention facilities, mostly run by private companies, have become arguable cesspools of human rights abuses. The Republicans cannot pretend to ignore when women are raped by guards, who were ineptly vetted for past rape convictions as some sort of payback. Yet, we allow human beings to be deprived of health services to the point that organ transplants are eventually rejected.
Let's face it, the U.S. cannot afford to pay for this disaster fueled by the vindication that created red tape restrictions limiting lawful immigration. Mitt Romney advocates the type of vindictive commentary that fuels the human rights violations that Americans like to condemn in other nations!
The bazaar part, for me, is that he claims to be a good Mormon.

I remember the buildup to last year's two NFL conference championship games vividly because it was one of those rare instances where no matter the outcome, you were virtually guaranteed an intriguing Super Bowl matchup.
You could have had Vikings/Jets, with Brett Favre going against a former team, or Saints/Jets, with Rex Ryan mouthing off against Drew Brees and company. The eventual Super Bowl we got, Saints/Colts, of course turned out spectacularly. And the amazing thing about this year is that again we are faced with no poor potential Super Bowl matchup.
That wouldn't have been true if, say, the Seahawks had made the NFC title game. Would you really have wanted to see a rematch of the 2005 Super Bowl between Pittsburgh and Seattle? Of course not. That game was worse than a TBS sitcom. But the way it stands now, we're all but guaranteed a juicy matchup in the final game of the NFL season. Consider these possible pairings:
1. Steelers/Packers The fact that Peter King predicted this matchup before the season suggests that the Heavens may open up and swallow us all if it were to actually occur. Furthermore, you'd get to see Aaron Rodgers finally make the Super Bowl get Brett Favre's legacy off his back once and for all. And he'd have to do it against the team that's won more Super Bowls than any other, and features Troy Polamalu, the most exciting defensive player in football. Throw in Big Ben's redemption, the inevitable close Vegas line, and the ratings could easily top last year.
2. Jets/Packers Rodgers going against the team that Brett Favre got traded to, all but assuring Rodgers will be asked one more Favre question than he'd like during Media Day, snap at long last, and take out a reporter with a well placed pass to the sternum. Also, you get Rex Ryan and the Jets talking crap for two straight weeks. A delight.
3. Jets/Bears Again, you'd have the Jets talking smack all night and day, and doing it against Jay Cutler, who is perhaps the most humorless person on earth not named Jim Nantz. Watch as Cutler sulks at the podium for hours on Tuesday! Marvel at the braintrust of Lovie Smith, Mike Tice, and Mike Martz operating on the game's biggest stage and throwing bad challenge flags! It should also be noted that this matchup would feature the two largest media markets in the sport, though the beauty of the NFL is that market size has been rendered all but irrelevant.
4. Steelers/Bears Probably the worst matchup of the lot, given the struggles of both teams' offensive lines. This game could easily end up being tied 6-6 at the end of regulation. It would also feature the two least likable quarterbacks in football, now that everyone seems to have forgiven Mike Vick for all that dogfighting stuff. Maybe Big Ben should learn to run really fast.

5 Reasons Homeownership Makes 'Cents'
The American Dream of homeownership is alive and well. Recent reports show that the US homeownership rate has rebounded from recent lows and is headed in the right direction. The personal reasons to own differ for each buyer, but there are many basic similarities.
Today we want to talk about the top 5 financial reasons you should own your own home.
- Homeownership is a form of forced savings – Paying your mortgage each month allows you to build equity in your home that you can tap into later in life for renovations, to pay off high-interest credit card debt, or even send a child to college. As a renter, you guarantee that your landlord is the person with that equity.
- Homeownership provides tax savings – One way to save on taxes is to own your own home. You may be able to deduct your mortgage interest, property taxes, and profits from selling your home, but make sure to always check with your accountant first to find out which tax advantages apply to you in your area.
- Homeownership allows you to lock in your monthly housing cost – When you purchase your home with a fixed-rate mortgage, you lock in your monthly housing cost for the next 5, 15, or 30 years. Interest rates have remained around 4% all year, marking some of the lowest rates in history. The value of your home will continue to rise with inflation, but your monthly costs will not.
- Buying a home is cheaper than renting – According to the latest report from Trulia, it is now 37.4% less expensive to buy a home of your own than to rent in the US. That number varies throughout the country but ranges from 6% cheaper in San Jose, CA to 57% cheaper in Detroit, MI.
- No other investment lets you live inside of it – You can choose to invest your money in gold or the stock market, but you will still need somewhere to live. In a home that you own, you can wake up every morning knowing that your investment is gaining value while providing you a safe place to live.
Bottom Line
Before you sign another lease, let's get together to help you better understand all your options.
