After 13 rounds of the 2003 Formula 1 season, the driver's and constructor's championships were tight races between Ferrari, Williams-BMW, and McLaren-Mercedes. However, pressure from Ferrari and Bridgestone led the FIA to change the rules for measuring tire tread width mid-season in response to Michelin's success, effectively deciding the championships without letting the races determine the winner. The new rules targeted Michelin's softer sidewalls which sometimes showed scuff marks from cornering, though these scuffs had been present for years without complaint when Bridgestone and Ferrari were winning. Michelin argued the rule change violated regulations and presented new tires to address the changed measurement procedures.

Brand Tracking - Taking The Pulse On Your BrandMichaela Mora
Branding has been around since the beginning of times as a means to differentiate products. Did you know that the term “brand” is derived from the old Norse word “brandr” which means “to burn” and used in the context of marking livestock to identify the owners. Branding in the marketing context occurs in the consumer minds and the “marks” not always come out as marketers intended, hence the need to implement brand tracking studies.
Questions addressed:
1. What brand metrics should be tracked?
2. How often should a brand be tracked?
3. Who should be included in a brand tracking study?
4. How to interpret brand tracking metrics?

Bloomfield Hills, MI, January 24, 2012 - (PressReleasePoint) - Global HeavyLift Holdings, a Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) listed (www.ccr.gov) entity with principal offices in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, is commending Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill's strong recommendation to the FAA that it fast track commercial certification of Boeing's workhorse C-17 Globemaster III strategic/tactical airlifter.
"GHH is exceptionally pleased that the Senator has demonstrated once again her unwavering support for this superlative airlifter, and the viability, if not the urgency, of establishing a U.S./NATO-controlled Heavylift industry based on very modestly modified C-17s -designated BC-17- for commercial use", says Global HeavyLift Holdings Managing Member Myron D. Stokes. "The Senator's actions are all the more notable when one considers the extraordinary efforts put forth by various parties in government and industry, both here and abroad, to kill C-17 by any means necessary."

In my view, these are rather extraordinary postulations, especially the probability of extra-universal black hole gravitational origins, along with expansion beyond Hawking of Quantum Wave theory and the “quantizing” of gravity. The latter may very well lead to a thorough reexamination of our concept of space and time, and that the latter might not be so unidirectional afterall. The potential is breathtaking, as it represents steps forward in proving the existence of subspace, the possibility of concomitant multi-universiality and 5D dimensionality of black holes.
Can time manipulation and Biefeld-Brown suggested electro-gravitics as a spacecraft propulsive methodology be far behind? I think not…

As the latest news travels of another top executive falling from grace -- this time Fritz Henderson from his short-lived position as company president -- it leaves a disturbing possibility. During a conference call discussion of its latest vehicle sales numbers on December 1, the announcement was confirmed that an international search would be made to find the best replacement for Henderson. With the subtle and inexorable movement toward the East that has progressed so far, it\’s apparent a new GM leader likely could come from the ranks of its executive force native to China, making the ownership conscription almost complete. That\’s a main reason for our report.
The story unfolds in flashback with plodding and predictable regularity. The fact that some undoubtedly will feign surprise as it becomes more obvious should be an expected reaction. Having traveled a beaten trail lulled by previous pronouncements of corporate direction can have a numbing, unquestioning effect.
How the present position of GM was set in motion is an exercise in a somewhat greedy corporate strategy flanked by blinders. In a quest for expansion and untapped Asian dollars GM, several decades ago, made the bold move of seeking out a business footprint in that Communist-controlled country.
GM\’s agreement with Beijng Auto to sell core technological and intellectual property right for Saab confirms our contention GM is controlled by the China auto sector. A subsequent decision to kill the brand after Dutch automotive entity Spyker failed to complete the purchase will have, and is having, a chilling effect Sweden's national psyche, unless its government steps in and nationalizes this automotive/aerospace icon immediately.

GAO and Congressionally Dismissed Pentagon Office of Program Analysis and Evaluation (PA&E) Developed 2005 Mobility Capabilities Study (MCS) and 2006 QDR Only Data in Existence; DoD Efforts Against C-17 Described as 'Intellectual' Assault; Reiterates Position No Credible Study Exists to Support DoD Contention That Aircraft in Operation and Ordered Are Sufficient to Meet Existent and Projected Strategic Airlift Needs; Provides Copy of McCaffrey Report Asserting 600+ C-17 Fleet Complement to Meet 21st Century Force Projection Requirements; Issues Statement Concerning Next Generation USAF Tanker Competition
In clear indication of a last minute ramping up of efforts to terminate C-17 production, an amendment was issued on September 29 by those in opposition to the aircraft's continued existence.
"We were in full expectation of this move," says Myron D. Stokes, Managing Member of Global HeavyLift Holdings, LLC, a Florida incorporated, Bloomfield Hills, MI based DLA-listed firm (www.ccr.gov) , "And it is precisely why we restated our position via the 9/28 release.
"Since those opposed to C-17 continue to cite "internal DoD analyses" we ask, respectfully, that they produce same. We are, of course, cognizant of the fact that a certain mythological place of intense heat would be altered by cryogenic intervention before such data were produced. Short story: It does not exist."
It should be noted that while we have the greatest respect for the offices of the SECDEF, SECAF and those to whom they report, we feel it necessary to again invoke the wisdom, past and present, of DoD personnel such as the late VADM Arthur K. Cebrowski, whose vast experience and knowledge cannot be ignored. In this instance, we feel it appropriate to highlight the conclusions of decorated U.S. Army 4-Star General (Ret'd) Barry R. McCaffrey, Adjunct Professor of International Affairs, United States Military Academy (USMA) West Point, as outlined in an "After Action" Report following visits to Nellis and Scott Air Force Bases 14-17 August, 2007."
Submission of this RFP, we believe, demonstrates confidence in the world's premier aircraft builder, the potential of restored financial sector equilibrium within 12-18 months, and the capability of this advanced airplane to take a lead role in the permanent air augmentation of US industrial base global supply chain as outlined in our business plan," said Myron D. Stokes, Managing Member.
Will Forever Change Acquisition, Production and Congressional Approval Process While Restoring Financial Equilibrium
Chicago – 8/26/09. In another addendum to its June 25, May 31, 2009 and 2007/2006 press releases, Global HeavyLift Holdings, LLC, a Florida incorporated and Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) listed (www.ccr.gov/) entity with principal offices in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, is clearly indicating that continued Boeing C-17 production is inextricably linked to its business strategies. Principals also believe funding for this superlative airlifter is not the issue; rather, it’s the process.
“Budgetary constraints, with due respect, exist only in the minds of those in the public and private sector who are at best disingenuous in their claims of continuing attempts to rein in spending. A true and viable solution exists that will forever change Department of Defense acquisition processes, and it’s designated Transformational Recapitalization,” says Myron D. Stokes, Managing Member.

A presentation by Global HeavyLift Managing Member Myron D. Stokes at the Jonathan Club, Los Angeles, in May 2007 outlining a comprehensive and long-term strategy for establishing a US/NATO-controlled heavylift industry -- the movement of goods via air too large or outsized to fit in any door of any 747 or similar size freighter -- using commercial/military variants of the Boeing C-17 Globemaster III airlifter. The Heavy and Outsized sector is currently controlled by Russian and Ukraine utilizing commercial versions of the Antonov AN-124 military airlifter
An industry advisory utilizing deconstructuve analytics to describe the market forces, both contrived and benign, that will shape the "green" fuel based propulsion and production technologies currently emerging within the 21st century automotive landscape; a landscape wherein the core players in this arena will be Japan, China and Canada.
In the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center Towers, and the inability of First Responders to effect a rescue of any victims above the aircraft impact points, the SKYSCRAPER EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM or IN-S.E.R.T., strategy was crafted with colleagues within academia, industry and government. Formulated with input from key members of the Detroit Fire Department, inclusive of the late General Manager Weylin Gildon, and the Chicago Fire Department, IN-S.E.R.T. was designed as a means to effectively rescue disaster victims trapped in historically inaccessible areas. In this case, the upper floors of a burning high-rise, while using off-the-shelf firefighting technology and modified first response rescue methodologies structured to epitomize operational simplicity. Moreover, it is to serve as a global first response template to be utilized by emergency teams in multiple countries benefitting from strict protocols of cooperation/collaboration.
IN-S.E.R.T. teams, strategically based around the world and equipped with Boeing C-17 Globemasters modestly modified for this mission, would be capable of responding to any emergency, anywhere.

World Championships

After 13 rounds of the 16-race 2003 Formula 1 World
Championship, race fans around the globe were savoring a
classic championship battle. The top three drivers - from three
different teams - were separated by just two points, and a
hard-fought stretch run was expected to continue to the last
lap of the final race.
Sadly, racing enthusiasts were deprived of an evenly fought
competition to the end. The pressure of close competition was
too intense for several major corporations supporting one of

2. the teams. The officials were pressured to re-interpret the
legality of a key component used by the other two entrants and
the Driver's and Constructor's World Championships were
effectively decided with a letter and some telephone calls and
meetings rather than on the race track.
It is helpful to set the stage. Entering round 13 of series (the
Hungarian Grand Prix), Ferrari ace Michael Schumacher led the
Driver's Championship with 71 points followed by Williams-
BMW leader Juan Montoya (65) and McLaren-Mercedes
youngster Kimi Raikkonen (62). The Constuctor's
Championship found Ferrari (120 points) leading Williams-
BMW (118) and McLaren-Mercedes (103), a situation that could
easily change with the 10 points that go with each race victory.
Points in F1 are awarded on a 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis to the top
eight finishers.
Alonso’s Surprise
Renault's Fernando Alonso claimed his first F1 pole position in
Hungary ahead of Ralf Schumacher's Williams-BMW and the
unexpectedly quick Jaguar of Mark Webber. Montoya was the
top championship contender in fourth ahead of the Ferrari of
Reubens Barrichello, the second Renault of JarnoTrulli,
Raikkonen, Michael Schumacher, and David Coulthard in the
second McLaren.
The race provided another surprise as Alonso dominated
throughout, leading the 70-lap race flag-to-flag and becoming,
at 22, the first Spaniard and the youngest winner in the 54-
year history of Formula 1. Behind, Raikkonen led Montoya, Ralf
Schumacher, Coulthard, Webber, and Trulli to the checkered
flag.
Michael Schumacher, the five-time world champion who had
teamed with Ferrari to win the 2001 and 2003 championships,
finished eight and gained a just a single point. More
significantly, he was more than a second off the pace of his top
challengers - even watching Coulthard pull away in the middle
stages - and the mood in the Ferrari camp was far from happy.
But the driver's championship had become a race fan's dream
as Michael led the standings with 72 points - one more than
Montoya and two more than Raikkonen. The constructor's
championship tightened as Williams-BMW took the lead for the

121 and McLaren-Mercedes with 115.
While Ferrari and Williams-BMW both were using new cars
introduced in 2003, McLaren-Mercedes was forced to enter a
heavily modified version of the 2002 car after the new model
failed to overcome durability problems.

In the days following the Hungarian race, the Federacion
Internationale d'le Automobile (FIA), the governing body of
international auto racing, issued a letter to all F1 teams saying
that, beginning at the Italian Grand Prix, tire tread width would
be measured after races as well as before.
The implication was clear: some tires appeared to be in
violation of article 77)c) of the FIA Sporting Regulations which
says quot;the tread width of the front tires must not exceed
270mm.quot; For such an accusation to arise after 13 of the
16 races had been completed, someone had to bring the
situation the attention of the FIA. Someone, in this case, was
Ross Brawn, Technical Director at Ferrari.

4. quot;We got hold of some photos taken in the paddock by a
Japanese photographer,quot; Brawn griped. quot;They showed in an
unequivocal way that the front Michelin tires had an
excessively large tread at the end of the race or after being
used. We turned to (F1 race director) Charlie Whiting who, on
the basis of his measurements and the photos, then sent the
letter. We could have pretended to have seen nothing, to not
let the FIA know and then lodged a complaint at the following
race, but that didn't seem like the right thing to do.quot;
There are two tire suppliers - Bridgestone and Michelin - in F1.
Bridgestone had enjoyed a monopoly for several years until
Michelin returned last year, and the Japanese manufacturer
supplied tires to Ferrari, the team which dominated the first
half of the 2002 season. But as the 2002 season progressed,
Michelin began to score more victories, and this year the
French manufacturer began to achieve more and more success
(with Williams-BMW, McLaren-Mercedes and, as the year
progressed, Renault), culminating in complete control of the
Hungarian race where the two-time defending world champ
was completely outclassed by, among others, Coulthard, the
second-fastest McLaren-Mercedes driver who was using what
was essentially a year-old car. Michelin was making
Bridgestone and the new Ferrari look bad.
Given the literally hundreds of millions of dollars spent
annually by Ferrari parent company FIAT and by Bridgestone in
developing F1 equipment and promoting on-track success,
there was a clear corporate philosophy at work: losing
the F1 driver's and constructor's championships was to be
avoided under all circumstances. So, if you can't beat the other
guys on the track, beat them by convincing the officials to
change the interpretation of the rules midway through
the game.
Proof in The Scuffing?
quot;We have the proof, because the front tire contact patch of the
Williams is 286 mm, 16 more than what is allowed by the
rules,quot; whined Hiroshi Yasukawa, Bridgestone motorsport
director. quot;Personally, I was suspicious, but we didn't say
anything because we didn't have any proof. We would have
reacted before that, but we didn't have any proof until now.quot;

Whiting's letter to the F1 teams contained some significant
wording: quot;With immediate effect, any part of the front tire
which we consider has been in regular or systematic contact
with the track will be deemed tread, and will be taken into
account when measuring the width of the tire as defined in the
regulations.quot;
What the entire controversy boiled down to was a series of
photographs appearing to show scuff marks (quot;evidencequot; or
quot;proofquot; of contact with the pavement) extending about 8mm
down each sidewall of the Michelin tires. Michelin apparently
makes tires with softer sidewalls than Bridgestone and, under
aggressive cornering, the Michelins apparently quot;rollquot; slightly
onto the sidewall.
Since the Michelins had been having recent success,
Bridgestone and Ferrari wanted to take away any performance
advantage provided by the French rubber.
The Ferrari and Bridgestone position was quite disingenuous -
the scuffs on the Michelin sidewalls had been evident for more
than two years, but Bridgestone and Ferrari didn't seem to care

6. - as long as they were winning.
After the FIA letter was issued, Michelin might have considered
that the implementation of new measuring standards in the
middle of a season would be a violation of another aspect of
article 77 of the FIA sporting regulations: quot;Tire specifications
will be determined by the FIA no later than 1 September of the
previous season. Once determined in this way, the specification
of the tires will not be changed during the championship
season without the agreement of the Formula One
Commission.quot; Michelin executives chose a different course of
action and responded to the accusations.
A Matter of Measurement
quot;We presented our tires to the FIA in 2001,quot; said Pierre
Dupasquier, Michelin motorsport director, quot;and up to and
including the (2003) Hungarian Grand Prix, the FIA has always
authorized all our tires. The geometry of our tires has
not changed at all since 2001. When new, the tread width of
our front tires does not exceed 270mm.
quot;The procedure to measure the width of a contact patch as
required now is unknown at the moment, which prevents any
further work. We can expect some difficulties in the definition
since a tire in its use can be in systematic contact
with various 'objects', for example curbs, which, according to
their profile and position, can touch up as far as the middle of
the sidewalls.
quot;The new interpretation of the rules by the FIA has forced us to
react. You don't think for one moment that Michelin would not
respond to the challenge? Our people have been working 24
hours a day since last Wednesday and new tires are being
tested in Monza as we speak. For anyone that knows anything
about the tire world, to do what we've just managed is a huge
achievement and this is only possible thanks to the hard work
and fast reaction time of our teams here (at the Michelin
factory) in Clermont-Ferrand (France).quot;
The problems were far from over when Michelin decided to
produce new tires. Tires are not isolated components - they are
part of a system that provides the best road holding for the car.
By changing even a small aspect of a tire - either the width or

7. the sidewall stiffness - the entire system is changed.
quot;Potentially, this whole affair is throwing the world
championship out of the window for both of us (McLaren and
Williams),quot; said Martin Whitmarsh, McLaren Managing Director.
quot;We talked at length to Charlie (Whiting) but there is still a
considerable concern about the issue of approving the tires'
conformity at the end of the race, even though Michelin have
produced some new rubber which we tested at Monza last
week. Put simply, we can either use the existing tires and risk
not conforming with these revised rule interpretations or we
can use new tires and still risk being illegal despite a loss of
performance. Michelin has done a great job, but the changes in
set-up we have had to make - to toe-in, camber and tire
pressures - have not worked to our advantage.quot;

Suddenly Illegal
In choosing not to challenge the FIA, several issues have been
overlooked. Why did the FIA approve the Michelin tires as legal
for more than two years (since originally presented for
inspection in August 2001) and then decide that the exact
same tires were suddenly illegal? When the tire quot;rollsquot; to one

8. side, the opposite side tread invariably lifts off the pavement;
would that mean that the quot;total tread widthquot; did not exceed
270mm? And since photos of both team cars at the same corner
often show one car with apparent side quot;rollquot; and the other
without, and those performances often vary from lap to lap
depending on how a car is being driven at a particular moment,
how could the terms quot;regular and systematic contactquot; possibly
be defined? An aggressive defense of the existing tires might
very well have proven their legality, but McLaren, Williams and
Michelin decided to use new rubber rather than tarnish the
championships (and the millions of dollars of associated
product publicity that goes with the titles) by having the
results decided in a legal proceeding, so the answers to
these questions and others remain unknown.
Pushing the envelope: R4 receives a test of its mettle. Although great potential exists, Jaguar’s
performance has been largely disappointing, but the internal directive is to change that reality

What is known is that the FIA often has its own agenda.
McLaren and Williams jointly challenged sweeping technical
changes the FIA wanted to implement prior to the start of 2003
season, and the two teams successfully united the other
teams in defeating the changes. Retaliation by the FIA for such
actions cannot be easily dismissed. In addition, Ferrari has long

9. been regarded as the only essential team in F1 and past FIA
rulings (such as the reinstatement of victory by the red cars in
the 1999 Malaysian Grand Prix after the FIA review court
determined - without any objective aerodynamic analysis - that
the larger-than-allowed vertical stabilizers behind the front
wheels provided no performance advantage) have often bent
over backwards to favor the Italians.
Additionally, for more than two years there has been an
ongoing threat of the creation of a rival top open-wheel series
in 2007 supported by the top auto manufacturers including
Mercedes-Benz and BMW. Called the GPWC (not an acronym,
just four letters - but widely considered to stand for quot;Grand
Prix World Championshipquot;), the proposed series has caused
FIA executives to fear the loss of hundreds of millions of
dollars in F1 team funding and to worry about the impending
destruction of the F1 series. If Ferrari can be persuaded to stay
in F1 and to abandon the GPWC, then F1 will be strengthened
and the GPWC will be damaged - perhaps to the point of failing,
or possibly even to end before it begins.
“Tire-Gate”?
Those motivations and the long-term consequences of the FIA
decision remain to be seen. But the short-term results saw
Michael Schumacher and Ferrari win the next two races (the
Italian and U.S. Grands Prix) and finish eighth in the
Japanese finale to claim the 2003 championships. It was a
disappointing end to a battle that saw tremendous balance for
more than 80 percent of the season.
But following the limited publicity generated by the entire
quot;Tire-gatequot; affair, one has to wonder if history will recall the
most significant message of the 2003 F1 season: despite the
illusion of sport, Formula 1 is little more than a billion dollar
marketing exercise.

Final note:
Although Jaguar’s efforts have not met or exceeded expectations, the 2004
season may well provide the litmus test for the capabilities and resolve of
an engineering and management team revamped just over a year ago. We
think the words of Jaguar Racing Managing Director David Pitchforth sums
up the program’s directions and goals rather succinctly: “We have clearly
laid down responsibility within the team, by specifying the details of the car
and the guidelines as to its design. There is no doubt that everyone involved
in Jaguar Racing understands their responsibility for the design of the car.
We have limited duplication by doing this and ensured that the key people
are working in their area of strength. These people have become disciplined
in delivering to deadlines, as a result of the work that was carried out on
the R3 late in the season, the R4 had to be designed to a tight time-line. It
is this sort of company ethos that we will look to carry forward with us in
the build-up to R5. This philosophy is not just at Jaguar Racing, but also
throughout both Cosworth Racing and Pi. By pulling our resources together
and building on our relationship the responsibility factor has only
strengthened. R4 has very much been the first step along the road to
including all engineering and operation departments in the design of the
car. As we move closer to R5, input will be expected from mechanics and
electrical specialists, a truly holistic approach is now being taken.”
