Silicon Valley Economic Outlook: Ready for Homebuilding
California's Silicon Valley Economic Outlook is Encouraging;
Market Ready for Home Building
The Silicon Valley housing market is becoming a bright spot for California, which continues to suffer from high unemployment and foreclosures.
National media outlets have recently highlighted the improving market. Bloomberg reports home prices in Palo Alto jumped 20 percent in May from a year earlier, the biggest jump since 2008 and climbed 3.1 percent in Mountain View, the ninth time in the past twelve months prices have risen year-over year. The Wall Street Journal takes note of a dearth of Silicon Valley properties for sale, which is often a precursor to rising home values.
Three trends are taking shape in the Valley that will benefit the housing market in this area.
For those currently employed, incomes are on the rise. This increase in wealth occurs on multiple fronts: salaries, bonuses and early disposition of stock holdings. In 2010, Google started the salary and bonus trend by giving its employees a $1,000 bonus and a 10 percent raise. Other companies have followed suit in an effort to keep their star performers from being poached. As a result, salaries for technology jobs in Silicon Valley were the highest in the country as raises outpaced the national average. In addition, many employees (and former employees) of private companies such as Facebook and Twitter are becoming instant millionaires by exercising their options and selling their stock in private secondary markets.
Prospects are growing fast for highly-skilled workers who are currently unemployed as big players including Facebook and Google expand and medium-sized companies advertise a steady stream of job openings. For example, Google just leased 715,500 square feet of space at the Technology Corners Office Complex, near the Eastern border of Moffett Field. This deal brings the total new space Google has committed to in Mountain View and Sunnyvale this year to 1.9 million square feet. Also, Google recently stated that it plans to add as many as 6,000 new jobs in 2011.
Demand is especially strong for highly-skilled workers such as engineers and computer programmers who command above median wages. Anecdotally, Linkedin nearly doubled its workforce by hiring 500 workers. Google will be hiring an additional 6,000 workers in 2011, primarily in the Silicon Valley (Sunnyvale, Mountain View and the Peninsula).
For lower-skilled workers who are currently unemployed their opportunities are just around the corner.
Facebook has leased a new 57-acre campus in Menlo Park that could house 9,400 workers by 2016. Apple plans to build a spaceship-shaped building on a new campus in Cupertino that could accommodate as many as 12,000. Twitter is moving into a nearly vacant 805,000-square-foot building in San Francisco and plans to increase its workforce from about 400 to as many as 3,000 by 2013. Google has agreed to pay Mountain View $30 million to lease 9.4 acres near Shoreline Boulevard, where the company is planning a cutting-edge, environmentally friendly office.
This surge in wealth is having a very positive impact on the Silicon Valley real estate market, especially in such areas as Palo Alto and Atherton. As the trend grows this will spill into other areas as newly rich workers bid up home values in suburban cities south of San Francisco.
The Bay Area tech hotbed has not yet fully escaped the grips of the recession. Silicon Valley still has a 10.6 percent unemployment rate — higher than last month's national average of 8.8 percent. However, the valley created 1,200 jobs last month, and its biggest companies are on track to add thousands more in 2011.

How many delegates does each presidential candidate have? Trump, Cruz, Clinton, Sanders
Here are four things we learned from the "Super Saturday" contests in five states.
The real estate tycoon is ahead in the all-important delegate count for Republicans, having now won 12 of the 19 states that have voted since Iowa.
With 50.7 per cent in the Kansas caucuses, he also became the first Republican candidate to claim more than half the vote in any state.
"Call it the twilight zone, call it an alternate universe but when Lindsey Graham actually is saying that Ted Cruz is an alternative for anyone, anyhow, anyway, we've reached a whole level and it tells you how serious people are about trying to stop Trump and what they think Trump will do long term to the Republican Party", said Felkel.
Romney, who hasn't always had kind words for Cruz, who scored decisive wins in the Kansas and ME caucuses on Saturday, says it's clear that the Texas senator has emerged as the best chance to derail Trump's path to the nomination. According to the New York Times' estimates, Trump has 373 votes, while Cruz, Rubio and Kasich have 291, 122 and 33 votes, respectively.
Following her Super Tuesday sweep, Clinton has amassed 1,066 delegates, while Sanders has 432 out of the 2,383 needed to win.
"We've got the momentum, the energy and the excitement that will take us all the way to the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia", Sanders said in a speech after winning Nebraska.
"Now all eyes turn to Michigan", Clinton said on Saturday night at a rally in Detroit.
"It's the establishment. The establishment is against us", Trump said.

NBA: Griffin limited as Clippers fall without Bledsoe.
HOUSTON – When Chuck Hayes plays Blake Griffin to a draw, the Clippers are in trouble.
Hayes had 12 points and 13rebounds Saturday and played tough defense on the Clippers rookie, helping Houston to a 99-78 win.
Griffin had 13 points and 10rebounds for the Clippers. He went 6 for 18 from the field, guarded mostly by Hayes, Houston's top interior defender.
"He is extremely smart and he knows exactly what to do and what angles he takes away from you," Griffin said. "He doesn't look like the typical shutdown big man. But he is so strong and he gets the job done."
Houston blocked 11 shots and held the Clippers to 35percent shooting (33 of 95), a season low for a Rockets opponent.
Chase Budinger, Kevin Martin and Brad Miller scored 16 points apiece for Houston, which was eliminated from postseason contention a night earlier. Goran Dragic added 14points, seven assists and a career-high 10 rebounds in his first start for the Rockets since he was acquired from Phoenix at the trade deadline.
The Rockets dominated one night after Memphis' win ended their postseason hopes. Houston is at least assured of finishing over .500 now, and Hayes said the players are motivated to improve on last season's 42-40 mark.
"If we win out and go 44-38, that would be a great achievement," Hayes said. "That would show the character of this team."
Eric Gordon scored 19 points for the Clippers.
The Rockets took control with a 22-9 spurt in the second quarter that put them up 53-37 at the break. The Clippers went 3 minutes without scoring at the start of the spurt, and shot 33 percent in the quarter (15 of 46).
"We were able to get some stops and get out in transition," Budinger said of the game's decisive stretch. "We were definitely attacking and we were able to put them on their heels."
The Clippers failed to score 20 points in any of the first three quarters.
"We just couldn't put the ball in the basket," Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro said. "Houston got a lot of rebounds, and we kept missing shots."
Also …
The Clippers played without guard Eric Bledsoe, who was suspended for the game for violating team rules. Del Negro would not elaborate on what Bledsoe did. … Clippers center Chris Kaman (sprained right knee) and forward Ryan Gomes (sore left knee) also sat out. … Rick Adelman earned his 944th career victory, tying former Houston coach Bill Fitch for eighth all-time.

This handy DIY (do it yourself) instructs you on how to go about doing a walnut blast and cleaning:
I finally set aside some time to give my 335i the walnut blast it deserved at 140k miles. I want to share my process/results!
Here are the supplies I used:
- Fine Grade Walnut Shells
- Intake Valve Cleaner
- Intake Manifold Gaskets (6)
- Abrasive Blaster Kit
- Vacuum Adapter & Blasting Wand
- Brass Adapter Fitting
- Remote Starter Switch
- Pick Set
- 8mm, 10mm, 11mm, T20, T25 & Hex Sockets
- Pistol Grip Blow Gun
- Shop Towels
- Vacuum
- Air Compressor
Here are the steps I took to get to the valves...
Step 1: https://bit.ly/2JvZ98O
Step 2: https://bit.ly/2Yn6rQr
Step 3: https://bit.ly/309uSCo
Step 4: https://bit.ly/309komL
Let's get started...
Well, I think I figured out why the car couldn't eclipse 13's in the 1/4 mile! I couldn't believe what I found after removing the intake manifold!
After loosening up some of the carbon with a pick...
Then after one pass of walnut blasting...
(see video at the bottom for a detailed explanation of how to do this part)
Lots of walnuts and manual scrubbing later...
I even cleaned up the intake manifold ports because those were caked with carbon as well. You can see the cleaned port on the left and the dirty port on the right.
It was a lot of work, but totally necessary. If you want to watch my whole process with more of a DIY/How-To style, check out my YouTube video. It also has some more information and a drive at the end showing the power increase/restoration.
I hope this helps other N54 enthusiasts!

The deal will keep Abrams, the man behind hit shows like Alias, Lost, and Fringe and the Cloverfield movies, at WarnerMedia for the foreseeable future. The Hollywood Reporter doesn't say how long the exclusive WarnerMedia and Bad Robot partnership will last, but notes that WarnerMedia's streaming plans helped the company seal the deal.
Currently, Abrams produces Westworld for WarnerMedia's HBO, and is developing Lovecraft Country and an original sci-fi drama, Demimonde, for the premium network.
For streamers, Abrams' presence makes WarnerMedia's upcoming service an attractive proposition. Previous reports indicated that the service will include a full HBO subscription, access to the Warner Bros. feature film lineup, which includes films like The Lord of the Rings and a whole slate of DC superhero flicks, and a collection of original programming for around $17 a month. The service is expected to enter beta later this year, and launch in earnest in 2020.
Abrams' involvement makes it clear that WarnerMedia is serious about wooing customers away from Netflix, the upcoming Disney Plus, and Hulu. Abrams is one of the hottest names in entertainment, and WarnerMedia had to outbid the likes of Apple, Sony, Amazon, and Netflix itself to keep Bad Robot in the fold.
WarnerMedia isn't the only company hoping to get your streaming dollars by signing one of your favorite content creators. Netflix has already signed Glee and American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy to a $300 million deal, and nabbed Scandal and Grey's Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes' services for $150 million. Other services, like Disney Plus, are relying on top-tier franchises like Marvel and Star Wars in order to attract subscribers.
If this trend continues, your favorite stuff to watch will soon be locked behind a bunch of competing streaming plans, and you'll need to make some hard choices. You can either use our guides to decide which services to keep and which ones to skip, or you can pony up and subscribe to all of them. If you really want to watch everything, it's the only way.

Are you playing the most impressive game of all the times League of Legends? Then you know that this game is a massive one, and more than 30 million people are having an account.

Well, the first thing you have to now is that only a small number from the many players are part of the community of League of Legends professionals, and they have played a lot, and spent a lot of time in doing research on how to improve their game. But, there are some secrets, players do not tell you, so you should know that there are websites from which you can buy an league of legends account, and it would come at the level you want, so soon you would break through, and become a great player.
Play it daily
Once you have the account you should play the game daily, because this is the only way to improve your skills, and develop as a player. Make team with some of your friends who are good at it, and play for at least 3-6 hours a day custom games against other teams. Also, you should do some research, because it is important to replay some of the previous scrims to see what mistakes have been made and learn how to not repeat them. It is not all about playing, sometimes you can learn a lot of things and keep up your mechanical skill by watching other good players do their job. There are different types of players, so you have to understand what your preferences are, because if some prefer to theorize about the strategies they use in games, others prefer to grins in multiple games to be able to improve their mechanical game.
Be a great team member
You might be noticed for your individual game but if you want to make an impact on the LOL scene, then you should be part of a team, and work on your team player skills. It is the dynamic of the team that would make a difference in the game, so it is crucial to be part of a group that is talented and good in mechanics. You have to be sure that you are effectively communicating with the others and understand that the team power is more important than your own fame.
Learn the strategies
After you buy the account, you have to do your homework and understand the best strategies, because they are the only ones that would fine-tune your skills and would help you become better. One way of learning strategies is to watch experienced players on live streams. But this does not mean that to copy the strategies the best players use, you should adapt them to your play.

What is it?
To get an idea of how far McLaren has come with the new 720S, just get its engineers onto the subject of what's left – how they'll possibly outdo this car when the time comes.
That, they'll say with a sigh, is the question. When they introduced the 675LT, even the 650S, they already knew this was coming. They knew what the 720S – P14, in McLaren's development speak – would be able to do and they knew how much further ahead of both the 650 and 675 it was, in all areas.
They put so much into the 720S that now they've got nothing left in the tank. This car, make no mistake, feels a generation and a half on from a 650S. It's so fast, so usable and so controllable that it might – just might – be the best supercar on the planet.
I'm getting ahead of things.
So, 720S. McLaren's naming structure is now familiar, and it won't be the only familiar thing about this car if you follow sports cars. Because it's both a supercar and a McLaren, it comes with certain engineering characteristics.
It's mid-engined and rear-wheel drive and has a twinturbocharged V8 engine. It has a carbonfibre tub, albeit a new one, whose integrity now stretches over the occupants' heads, increasing rigidity and, because it removes steel from the top of the structure – the windscreen surround, for example – it's now 18kg lighter than before and lowers the centre of gravity.

4 Easy Ways to Keep Track of Your Home Design and Remodel Ideas
Planning your dream remodel is no simple task. You want to collect every piece of inspiration, research every design option, and talk to every contractor but keeping track of it all in an easy and organized way can be very tricky. Below are 3 options for keeping track of home design and remodel ideas so you'll never lose that picture of the perfect kitchen or the latest draft of your remodel plans!
1) A Remodel Binder or Folder
A binder or folder offers an easy and appealing way to keep all the important documents for your remodel in one place. From the moment you start researching your remodel to when the contractors leave, there will be plenty of paperwork you will need to keep organized. A folder or binder can include cut-outs of your dream designs from magazines, notes you've jotted down while walking around the house, and tips and recommendations passed on from friends. While many of us prefer to keep things digital these days, some prefer the substance of a physical folder.
If you do want to keep your remodel documents and inspiration totally digital, you can store your information in a folder or an app on your computer or smartphone. This will allow information to be shared quickly through email or the cloud with a friend or your contractor. It also pays to have digital backups of your plans and designs on your computer or the cloud to ensure nothing gets lost in the remodel process.
2) Pinterest
Pinterest is one of the most popular sites on the web for planning and collecting ideas, whether it's for a remodel project, birthday party, or wedding. Pinterest collects a huge range of inspiration and ideas by some of the leading players in the industry. Whatever your taste or style, you'll find something you love. Pinterest allows you to build your own inspiration board where you can collect ideas for designs, products, finishes, materials, and appliances that you want. Because the boards are entirely online, it's easy to share ideas and inspiration with others such as your family, your designer or your contractors.
3) Houzz
Another website that allows you to build inspiration boards is Houzz.com – but here, they're called ideabooks. You can store all of "your favorite home design photos and product shots, notes, PDFs and other details of your home project".[1] When you're ready to start your renovation project, you can share your ideabooks by collaborating with your design build contractor to get their help choosing the essential elements for your design. You can also decide whether to allow comments and photos from others, thus receiving feedback from a wider, public audience.
4) Home Remodel Apps
There are several apps for smartphones and tablets that can help you manage information and collect inspiration for your remodel. Some apps even integrate with 3D design for remodels so you can experiment and plan your project on your smartphone or tablet before you even speak to your contractor. Apps like Home Design 3D allow you to draw your dream plans, while Tap Painter lets you switch up your color scheme with just a tap of your finger. Because apps are hosted on mobile devices, they allow you to access ideas on the run, so you can keep the inspiration for your remodel flowing whether you're at home, at the store, or in your contractor's office.
Finding ideas and inspiration for your remodel project should be an easy and enjoyable process. Use one of these convenient tools to capture inspiration and make keeping track of your remodel ideas easy, and then contact Gordon Reese CDesign Build for help to turn those ideas into your dream space.

Johnson's Life of London
The People Who Made the City That Made the WorldBook - 2012
Wearing his brilliance and erudition with characteristic wit, Boris narrates the story of his city as a kind of relay race of outsized characters, beginning with the days when "a bunch of pushy Italians" created Londinium. He passes the torch on down through a procession of the famous and infamous, the brilliant and the bizarre - from Hadrian to Shakespeare to Florence Nightingale to the Rolling Stones- illuminating with unforgettable clarity each figure and the era he or she inhabited. He also pauses to shine a light on places and developments that have contributed to the city's incomparable vibrancy, from the flush toilet to the King James Bible. As wildly entertaining as it is informative, this is an irresistible account of the city and people that in large part shaped the world we know.

CommentAdd a Comment
Johnson's Life of London is a very interesting and highly readable social history of one of the most exciting world capitals. Author Boris Johnson, the blond mopped Mayor of London (you have seen him at the Diamond Jubilee and Olympics), presents a history of the city he so evidently loves. Each chapter covers a different historical era and does this by focusing on a particular person. From Queen Boudica, to Keith Richardson, from Chaucer to Churchill, Johnson's Life of London spans the eras from Roman times to the current day. Johnson writes with wit and insight. The book discovers London as none of us have seen it before and the journey is both surprising and exhilarating.

Alternative Cars
December 1, 2004
By Scott Lewis
I came across a car in the last month or so that made me want to explorer "alternative" cars. What do I mean by alternative? I mean the less desirable versions of cars, or cars that you have to look real hard at to find potential.
For example, the car that got me started was a 1974 Camaro Z/28.
Now I know what you are thinking. A Z/28 Camaro is hardly an
alternative car. In fact, the Z/28 is special. If you are thinking
that then you have not looked at the pictures below. 1974 was
almost the last year for the Z/28. In 1974 the government mandated
5 mph impact bumpers. Since the 70-73 Camaro had skinny chrome
bumpers (or the super small split bumpers on the RS), 74
introduced the big, ugly bumpers that ran through 1977. As for the
last year of the Z/28. Well, it was. They dropped the Z/28 for 75.
However, a little movie by the 70's most popular actor gave a lot
of fame to a certain black car called the Trans Am. The movie was
Smokey and the Bandit. Pontiac sold twice as many Trans Ams in 77
as they did in 76. Chevrolet rushed to get the Z/28 back out there
in 77.
The Z/28 didn't look good with those nasty bumpers, and are now
the least desirable model years. Pontiac was using molded bumpers
since the 1968 GTO. All firebirds from 1970 on have molded
bumpers, so it was easier for Pontiac to transition to the heavy
molded bumpers that Chevrolet switched to in 1978. Enough history. I wanted this month's cars to be the models
and years that would be less desirable. This should keep the
prices down. I wanted to keep all this month's car's to ones
priced below $10,000 instead of my usual $15,000. However, the
above mentioned Camaro was listed at eleven grand. Let's see if we
can keep all the others to a maximum of $11,000. This is a first. This month every car listed was still for sale
when I finalized the list and order. This might be a good
indicator of the lack of interest in these orphans. I might be on
to something with this idea of a lesser car... for lesser
money. Enough of my usual babbling, let's get on with this month's

Enough of my usual babbling, let's get on with this month's cars:
1974 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 - $10,900
Description: Matching numbers 1974 Camaro Z28 with the factory high-performance 350 engine and Turbo-Hydromantic 350 automatic transmission in factory correct Bronze Metallic paint with Saddle interior, front and rear spoilers, and factory Rallye wheels. 58,346 actual miles! Factory original CLK-Code 350 engine; still fitted with the original cast iron intake manifold, cast iron exhaust manifolds, Rochester Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor, and chrome dual-snorkel air cleaner assembly. Internal upgrades include 10.5:1 pistons, a 280 duration Crane Cam, and a 3-angle valve job. 3.42 positraction rear end. Center console and factory floor shifter. Power steering, power disc brakes, air conditioning that blows ice cold. Factory power windows, AM/FM Stereo radio, 130 mph speedometer and in-dash 7,000 RPM tachometer.
Value: $ - $14,150 (+%)

Comments: O.K. This is the car that inspired this month's selection. This cars seems to be priced right about where it should be. In fact, if the description is accurate this car might be a bargain. If you buy a car like this don't expect to sell it quickly. Because of its lower desirability you will have to wait to get what it is worth.
However, the same reason this car would take a while to sell could work in our favor to get the price down. I am not too concerned with price on this one. It is price in the right range for its estimated value, and it is well below my self imposed $15,000 budget.
I would check the engine very carefully since it has been taken apart. However, its low mileage should make this a good car. When I first saw this car I did a little looking for 74 Z28s. I could not find any that seemed as nice as this one. I also noticed that the nice ones had the huge Z28 letter-stripes on their hoods. I like that this car does not have them.
Overall I really like this car. No, it is not the most popular Camaro out there, but that's part of why it's here. What I am supposed to do, look at 69 Z/28s in mint, low mileage condition for $40,000. If this car had a four speed I would call today.
1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme - $8,900
Description: 2-Door hardtop in gorgeous Ebony black with silver hood and trunk stripes, factory rear wing, and factory Rallye wheels. Very nice car with only 66,533 actual miles! All original 350 4V
engine, Turbo 350 transmission, 3.08 rear gears. Power steering, power disc brakes, factory air conditioning blows ice
cold and factory AM radio. Excellent bucket seats and center console with the factory floor shifter. Nice body with no dents, no dings, and no waves. Black vinyl top in excellent condition. Nice chrome and trim. Excellent glass and all windows operate smoothly. Very nice car at a reasonable price with low miles that runs and drives perfectly.
Value: $ - $9,325 (+%)

Comments: Hey, this is a very pleasant looking car. Notice how I said that in a very uninteresting way. I am having a hard time getting warmed up to this car. I really shouldn't have a problem. It has PS, PDB, A/C, buckets and console. It is priced right for a truly excellent car. What's not to like.
Well, it looks unexciting. Almost boring. What is it? I can't quite put my finger on it. O.K. I know one thing this car needs. It needs the Ram Air hood from a 442. That would be my first modification. I would have it painted to match, including matching the stripes that are on the car. That would be a big help. Next are the tires. Yes... I am complaining about the tires. This car screams out for a set of raise white letter tires. We need to get some BF Goodrich Radial TA tires for this car. The big question is would we get new wheels. You can make or break the look of a car with the right or wrong wheels. I would take some pictures of the car and try to "Photoshop" in some different wheels and see how they look. I would also just try "Photoshopping" in the BFG tires on the existing wheels to see how it would look.
Of course, once we get the look down it would be time to swap in some Hotchkis suspension pieces and add some horsepower. To swap or not to swap, that is the question. I could see swapping in a crate 454 big block, but that would blow our budget right out the window. Maybe we could make it a challenge to see how much power we could get out of this "non-performance" 350. Oldsmobile made a Rallye 350 that was a decent performer. Maybe we could do that here, but better with modern technology. As long as we're trying to make the stock 350 work we should try and install a 200-4R overdrive transmission. Might as well help gas mileage if I am going to stick with a small block and not get a manual transmission.
I think we have real potential here. If only I could get a little more excited.
1970 Pontiac Lemans - $10,995
Description: 350 2BBL V8, automatic, power steering, power brakes, buckets, factory A/C car, correct AM radio, new interior & paint, dual exhaust, PMD Rallye wheels, vinyl top, original books & window sticker, very straight & clean car! Excellent driving car!
Value: $ - $6,600 (+%)

Comments: As long as we have an Olds we might as well include a Pontiac. For a new interior it sure looks boring. The colors are faded to different levels. With this car I would install a console and convert the interior over to black to match the vinyl roof.
As with the Olds, we would have to find performance the hard way, but it shares a lot with the Chevelle and other GM twins that we only really have to worry about getting decent power from that 350, or swap in another engine.
I really like the look of this car. I wonder what it would take to swap in a manual transmission.
1972 Buick GS 350 - $10,995
Description: Ram Air coupe, 350 engine with automatic transmission. Lots of new parts consisting of power steering box and pump, new front end lower ball joints, A/C recharge and works, new belts, new hoses, new water pump, new timing chain, new valve job, new competition cam, new aluminum intake manifold, re-jetted carburetor, and much more.
Value: $ - $11,375 (+%)

Comments: As long as we have an Olds and a Pontiac I couldn't leave out Buick. The GS 350 was the low end of the GS line. 72 not being the best year either. But that's what this month is about. At least this car has Ram Air.
The front seat needs work, so we would just go to buckets and a console. The question will be whether to change the interior to black. With the brown vinyl roof it might not look good with a black interior. I would be a little curious how well the Ram Air 350 could be made to run.
1970 Pontiac LeMans Sport - $8,950
Description: 2dr hardtop, very rare original factory bucket seats & console stick shift vehicle, 350ci V8, P/S, A/C, Stage II Rallye wheels, nice paint & interior, dual exhaust, runs & drives like new! Must See!
Value: $ - $6,600 (+%)
Source: Brockers Beautys
Comments: My guess is that they are correct, this probably is a rare car with that console and stick shift. Is it safe to assume it is a 4 speed? I would think so if it has air conditioning. It is interesting that this car has power steering and A/C, yet it has manual drum brakes. Oh well, that will have to be one of out first upgrades.
The interior of this car is ugly. When I initially saw the car I cringed before clicking on the picture because I just knew is was going to be some lame color. Along with the disc brake upgrade will come a color change to the interior. I would certainly switch it over to black. With a combination of paints, dyes and new components it shouldn't be that expensive to make the switch.
Overall I like this car. It is not perfect, but it is good enough. I would start with the color change, then move on to the brakes. Once we have the car stopping I would work on improving handling, and finally do something to add more power. We could drop in a 400 or 455 easily since they have the same external dimensions. Some people would call this a GTO clone, but I would prefer the term GTO Beater... because I would beat GTOs at their own game.
I might enjoy this car with the 350, so maybe a throttle body fuel injection system would make this car more enjoyable as a daily driver. I see a lot of potential here.
Some of you may be wondering about the price vs. value. Like I said, I think this probably is a rare car with its options. If it is authentic I would think the CPI rating that I base my values on is wrong. CPI doesn't even list the Sport package for consideration in the value. NADA does list the Sport model. If this 350 engine is the 255 hp version then NADA puts this car at about $11,000 for high retail because of the 350, the 4 speed and the A/C. So I think the asking price is fair if this is a rust free car.
So why it this car below the gold LeMans listed above. Well, as much as I want a four speed I really like the look of the gold car with its black vinyl roof to this white car with white vinyl roof. Looks are important. Maybe I would change my mind with better pictures of this car, but as it is I have a hard time putting this car higher on the list.
1966 Chevy Caprice - $8,995
Description: 2 door hardtop, 327 4BBL V8 (275Hp), automatic (Powerglide), power steering, power brakes, rare buckets/console, gauge cluster, AM/FM-cassette, beautiful interior, correct HCH coded block, Rally wheels, 10 bolt rear, correct "Aztec Bronze", vinyl top, pretty original car. What a great find!
Value: $ - $9,525 (+%)
Source: Fast Lane Classic Cars
Comments: As long as we are including big overweight cars I can look at this early Caprice. I think this is the first car this month that needs air conditioning. Of course that would be one of the first things to be changed. The other would be the transmission. I think I would just go straight to an overdrive tranny. I can't believe they put that Powerglide behind the high performance 327 with 275 horsepower.
Overall I like the looks of this car. I can see a little detail work needed on the interior. I love the console with the gauges. I could see myself driving this car daily with just a swap to a transmission that can take some abuse and cold air blowing a nice Vintage A/C system. And all that should be easy with the starting price.
1969 Chevrolet Nova - $7,995
Description: Late Model 350 4bbl V8, Turbo 350 Automatic Transmission. Power Steering, Rebuilt Power Brake System, 10 Bolt Rear End, 15" Polished American Wheels, New Vinyl Top, Older
Burgundy Metallic Paint On Straight-Solid Body, Nicely Restored Black Cloth Interior With In-Dash CD Sound System. Runs and Drives Strong and Tight. Drive Anywhere.
Value: $ - $7,325 (+%)
Source: Memory Lane Motors
Comments: Since the Nova shares a lot with the Camaro this can be an alternative car. So, what is this world coming to when I find a nice Nova that is not priced about twice what it is worth. Did someone at Memory Lane Motors actually take the time to look up the value of this car before they priced it. What a concept. I must be dreaming.
So... what to do. Well, the car does look good. The interior looks plain Nova. This could make for a nice project car. Keep in mind that we are already over value with the asking price. But the key here is that we get into this car with about $7,000 left in our self imposed budget. So we should not have trouble putting in air conditioning, adding power steering, and upgrading to disc brakes. If we are willing to live with the lack of resale value then we can also add in buckets and a console with gauges. Add some suspension pieces (springs, shocks, sway bars, tubular control arms, etc.) for some serious handling and this car can be a nice, fast daily driver. Somewhere along the way we have to decide how important a 4 or 5 speed is, because we may have to work that into the modifications.
I don't know why I am willing to accept this car at this price with all the modifications I would be willing to spend on it. I should have my head examined. Well, at least it should be a lot of fun.
1969 Buick GS350 - $8,957
Description: West Virginia car, small block V-8, ram air induction, automatic, 500 rims w/new Eldorado tires, power steering, 12 bolt rear end, remote drivers mirror, detailed engine bay is clean, nice trunk w/mat, black bucket seat interior is nice and clean, console, ram air induction hood, GS California trim, solid floors, recent paint has great gloss, starts/runs/drives great!! Straight car w/decent chrome.
Value: GS350: $ - $9,325 (+%)
Skylark: $ - $6,225 (+%)
Source: Jake's Forgotten Past
Comments: This better be a real GS350. Assuming it is, I like this car a little. Clearly they are at the top of the dollar range here, so I would try to bargain it down. We would need to put in air conditioning and get rid of that cheesy console and try and install a correct factory console with the appropriate floor shifter. We will also need to upgrade that non-power drum brake setup for some power disc brakes. Fortunately there is plenty of money left in the budget for these items, but we need to be careful not to put too much money into a car that is already topped out in value.
Black cars can look so awesome, but they also show ever imperfection. I saw orange peal in the paint. This is typical. However, they mentioned "recent paint has great gloss." If the paint was done well we should be able to wet sand this car to look truly outstanding. The quality of the paint and body work under the paint is very important. I wouldn't mind paying someone $500-1000 to color (wet) sand and buff out this paint to make it smooth as glass. I might even be willing to try it myself.
1972 Chevrolet Impala - $9,950
Description: Very rare 402 big block car! Automatic, P/Top, P/S, P/Windows, P/B, A/C & C/C. Can-Am white over saddle interior. After market wheels, nice chrome & stainless, dual exhaust. Very clean, drives nice!
Value: $ - $11,150 (+%)
Source: Brockers Beautys
Comments: This is the month for oddball cars. Like last month's Monte Carlo search, this car would be sacrificing performance for luxury. We have power windows & locks as well as cruise control. All the modern conveniences of late model cars in a car that is over 30 years old. Cool! I love the big block. It gives this car a chance for performance. Although to move this big beast we would probably need to swap in a 454 or 502 crate motor.
Performance not withstanding, this is a cruiser. Gas mileage will suck. But this car was someone's daily driver at some time. If all the weather stripping is in good condition it should make for a decent daily driver now. I would definitely look into a 4 speed overdrive automatic. I wouldn't mind swapping in bucket seats and a console.
Overall this car doesn't need anything, but that wouldn't stop me from personalizing it. I wonder what Chip Foose would do with a car like this on Overhaulin? The white on white color scheme makes this car possible in the hot Texas heat. This is not my first choice for a classic daily driver, but it is an interesting alternative in a month were I am in the mood for something different.
1965 Mustang Fastback - 6 Cylinder - $8,900
Description: 1965 Fastback with a 6 cylinder and automatic. This car is advertised as a mostly original sheet metal car. When this car came in I thought it had the original quarter panels front fenders and floors. The doors looked like original doors also. I was really impressed that it was so solid. After looking at all the paperwork that came with the car, there was a receipt dating 1988 indicating it had full quarter panels, door skins and new front fenders installed! They used original Ford parts. When you look at the quarter panels, they look like original quarters because they are Ford full quarter panels. (they were available back then for $385 each from Ford). Anyway, the car is a very solid car. The paint is older and showing its age. The interior is also very nice. The 6 cylinder has paperwork that it was rebuilt. It is fast and strong with a two barrel carb and dual exhaust. This is an excellent car to make a resto-mod, Shelby clone, a pro touring car, or just drive it around, since it does drive very nicely.
Value: $ - $17,325 (+%)
Source: The
Classic Car Shop
Comments: This is the closest thing to a mainstream car this month. After all it is a Fastback Mustang. But that six cylinder is not desirable. I think of it as a challenge. This is definitely a project car. But if it is rust free I could see doing this project. Ideally we could have a driver project car.
I have to hope this car has the 200 ci. engine and not the 170. We will need as much displacement as possible. I would go for a Shelby look and call it a GT-200 instead of the usual GT-350. This car could be a money pit, so be careful.

Abruzzo is an Italian region on the Adriatic coast in the center of the country with its western border less than 50 miles east of Rome.
The Apennines mountain range runs through the region and, as a result, Abruzzo is one of the most mountainous regions in all of Italy.Its spectacular peaks include the Corno Grande, part of the Gran Sasso massif and the highest summit in the Apennines, and La Majella ("Maiella" in Italian), part of Italy's Majella National Park, both pictured below.
On April 6, 2009, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck central Italy with its epicenter near L'Aquila, Abruzzo's capital. The earthquake caused 290 deaths and over 1,500 injuries, and left almost 30,000 individuals homeless.
A few weeks back we received an email from La Ciccia, one of our favorite restaurants in San Francisco, advising that they would be hosting a dinner for Sustain Abruzzo. Sustain Abruzzo is a project initiated by Lorenzo Scarpone, a San Francisco-based wine importer and SlowFood leader who was born in Abruzzo, to aid small agricultural producers in Abruzzo who were affected by the earthquake. The La Ciccia dinner was to help raise funds for the Galano family, owners of the Galano Dairy Farm near the town of Fossa, not far from L'Aquila.
The Galano's home in Fossa, as well as many of the structures at their dairy, had been destroyed by the earthquake, and they are seeking to construct a temporary facilities to protect their cows during the coming winter.
So, on Monday night, Alex, Cass and I headed to La Ciccia for the dinner. Although La Cicca's traditional focus is on Sardinian cuisine, in honor of Abruzzo Massimo prepared for us a number of dishes from Abruzzo:
~ Polpettine di Capra e Agnello in Verde (Goat and Lamb Meatballs with Garlic, Basil, Capers and Pecorino)
~ Rosticcina di Agnello (Roasted Lamb Skewers)
~ Maccaroncini con Frattaglie d'Agnello (Maccaroni with Lamb Heart and Liver Sugo)
~ Brasato di Capra e Agnello al Ginepro e Porcini Essicati (Braised Goat and Lamb with Juniper Berries and Dry Porcini)
~ Riccotina Fresca con Miele e Limone (Fresh Ricotta with Honey and Lemon Zest)
The meatballs were particularly good - a wonderful texture and a great sauce.
The meal was accompanied by two wines:
~ Torre dei Beati Pecorino Primo Bianco 2008
~ Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Scarpone 2007
Torre dei Beati is an organic producer from near Loreto Aprutino. I had never heard of the Pecorino grape used for the white wine, but learned it is an indigenous Abruzzo varietal that has been rediscovered and is making a comeback there. The red wine came from Lorenzo Scarpone's own vineyard near Guardia Vomano.
It was an enjoyable evening for a good cause. Our best wishes go out to the Galano family and the other terremotati abruzzesi who are struggling to pull their lives and beautiful region back together. Thanks again to Massimo and Lorella for their generosity, and to Lorenzo for his presentation at the dinner and for his ongoing work with Sustain Abruzzo.

How to Catch More Carp on Your Pond
If you want to catch as many carp during any carp fishing, to begin with you will need to make them hard to eat your yard catch. As soon as the medium-sized carp begin to feed confidently on point, catching them is not easy. Because there is much competition for every morsel of food. In addition, when a little carp feels full, his suspicion and caution will decrease significantly. You can easily catch fish, even if the equipment you use will be poorly disguised or bad pinpoint carp. Using some catching tricks, you will be able to surprise many in your local lake.
One of the best ways to get the carp to eat hard is to let them know that you proposed the bait tasty and useful. In addition, safe and poses no threat. Carp greedy creature, and eats virtually all types of food that it finds. One reason why it does not always have to be some bait - carp is uncertainty about its safety.
Once you have located the carp in your lake, a good choice would be complementary feeding small amounts of food in a place where you can see the bubbles and other signs of feeding carp. Continue to feed the fish, not throwing rods, just feed and watch.
You have to make sure supply of fish. Once this happens, in any case, do not throw their rigging lured into a point or for her. Threw his equipment on the sides of the food to the carp could safely eat spot on the stern, suspecting nothing.
When carp eat with confidence, try to reduce the weight of the load in a snap as much as possible, so as not to frighten him once again. Throw-tooling around and closer to the shore at a sufficient distance from the feeding spots, it not only does not give cause for concern nursing fish, but also may bring a bite of a larger specimens, which is usually held at a distance from the bait.
How to catch more fish on the short sessions?
During the short session carp, you need as much as possible to get the carp will eat on your fishing area. You need to use balanced food of the best quality that could compete with natural food in the pond. It is necessary to attract as fish that they literally fought for every morsel of food.
To make sure to catch large quantities of fish for a short session to best your fishing site for a few days before leaving on a fishing trip. To give the carp more time to get used to the new food for him and link bait with a useful, nutritious food, and most importantly safe.
One effective method of feeding is that your bait stands out against the background of complementary foods. But to make it so that its performance was different from how others do it carp anglers. For example, many anglers use PVA bags; however, they almost always lead to bait placed inside.
Carp have long been accustomed to this method and is afraid to touch these small groups feed. What you need to do is to get a carp to understand that a bunch of your food completely safe for him. In other words, try to lure food, bombarded in PVA bags. You can throw 20 or 30 packages with food at a time, and do not feed. Do not throw their equipment within a few hours.
You make sure to eat the fish, and it is nothing to be suspicious when you throw another PVA bag, but with a hook. In fact, I think that this tactic will work a lot better after a preliminary ground bait company.
Doing this for a few weeks and throwing each time with some food PVA bags with bait, the fish can develop a strong association with a secure source of nutritious food in the lake. This trick can be fishing using PVA tape to accustom the carp need not fear lying in the range of baits on the bottom of the reservoir.
It's just a few ideas to get the carp to eat your food and greedily grab your bait. Use your own ideas and create their own unique tactics feeding and fishing, to get as much as possible for the next carp bites carp fishing.

At the end of October 2017, Childlife Essentials NZ team received an email from a group of mothers from a small town in New Zealand.
Their children had weakened immune systems and different health disorders, and mothers had been looking for effective supplements and vitamins for the kids to improve their health.
They asked whether Childlife Essentials could provide product samples to help understand whether the supplements are suitable for kids before purchasing more.
Fish Oil and Kids' Development
Did you know that Omega 3 isn't just crucial for nourishing kids' brains, nervous system and supporting their immune system, but reduces their behavioural problems? We talk about this further.
With statistics of 1 in 4 people not eating any fish at all, it is important to take these essential fatty acids in another form especially for kids and to aid their development.

text: I'm not happy and I'm not sad...but I have reached that point of anger where...I'm blaming myself and I'm replaying things in my head. I know I have to stop living in the past because it's not going to solve anything. As I reflect on things I know I will eventually make my peace with this. Although none of you know what I'm talking about I find it very therapeutic expressing myself on here. Like this image, things may seem rocky now, but not far in the distant future everything will smooth itself out.
