Date Reviewed: August 15, 2013
Strengths: Cool looking design (although more fashion than function)
Weaknesses: Poor build quality and poor customer service. The rear derailleur on my Salsa got caught in the spokes and the non-replaceable derailleur hanger cracked rather than bending. I spoke with Salsa and they say the reason they designed with a non-replaceable derailleur hanger is because it is easy to work and reform on a steel/CroMo bike. Well when your derailleur hanger is cracked due to poor quality steel and hanging on by a thread, there's no way to bend it back. I contacted Salsa for help and they couldn't provide any replacement parts or give my any advice on where to go to have my frame repaired. One their reps said that it was too much of a liability for them and another guy at Salsa told me they don't have parts because their bikes are make over seas (Taiwan). They couldn't even provide matching paint. Contacting Salsa was a complete waste of time.
Bottom Line:
Date Reviewed: December 12, 2012
Strengths: Sturdy frame, smooth ride, fresh design (tan is the best color I have seen the Fargo in), comfortable touring-style handlebars.
Weaknesses: Minimal clearance between front tire and pedal, a little jittery with weight on the front.

Date Reviewed: December 7, 2012
Strengths: There are many strengths for this bike. Its versatility, ability to do many things well, comfort, frame strength, paint job, etc. This thing is as fast as I can make it go, has a great gear range for climbing things like pipelines, and will haul an awesome load. I have tubus racks on mine and they are wonderful. I have anything cages on the front with 3 other bottle cages and these are normally more than adequate for the things I do. Love how the frame is sized - I can comfortably ride a large frame because of the shortened top tube. I really like the Rapid Rob Schwalbe tires - they grip well, roll fast, and cushion the ride over the rough stuff. Not so good on pavement, but hey - that's not their job. I traded out the bar ends for Sora brifters and I love how it shifts. Had to trade out the front der also as it didn't work with brfiters, but a Sora front der took care of that problem!!
Weaknesses: None really - it's a little heavy, but at the size of the bike and the materials of the frame, you can't seriously expect it to be a weight weenie, right???
Bottom Line:

From jumping curbs and barreling through mud and gravel, to cruising with the family on asphalt, this bike does it all. I love it!

Similar Products Used: I haven't seen a comparable product.
Bike Setup: Brooks B17 Special; everything else is stock
Date Reviewed: February 18, 2012
Strengths: So versatile, as fast as my cross bike on the road (with the right tires), as good as any rigid 29er off road (with the right tires again)
Lots of well thought out braze ons. Six bottle mounts!
Weaknesses: A bit heavy, although I really only notice when I pick it up.
I wouldn't mind a rim braked, flat bar version. I guess that's an Ogre.
Bottom Line:
Before this, I had the Peregrine, which often gets compared to the Fargo. I find the Fargo to better in all respects: more tire clearance and standover clearance off road, and a more lively ride on road. It also works better with racks and fenders.
I'm 6'3" and ride an XL (22") first gen frame. I'm happy with the fit.

Strengths: Does what it was designed for. Really great for wet weather funky riding with full wrap fenders, handles great. My wife lived hers after the first ride.
Weaknesses: None so far but the fsa bottom bracket is junk or at least mine was. Maybe fsa will replace it after only 4 months of normal use. Been a shimano man until now so I was a bit surprised to see that part fail so soon. I have had even low end shimano last 2 seasons of serious rain ridiing. A larger front rotor would be nice. You will burn thru pads pretty quickly with such a heavy machine.
Bottom Line:
No need for a cross bike with this machine anymore.
A TI version with bling parts would be pretty sweet.

Similar Products Used: None like this really. My rigid 29r was close but the higher front end and funky road style bars make it way more comfortable to ride
Bike Setup: Stock but added a longer stem on mine. The wife's bike is stock.
Added planet bike full wrap fenders and two layers of bar tape
Date Reviewed: February 4, 2011
Strengths: Salsa made the Fargo in a frame that is not only big enough for me but is actually visually appeasing. The Woodchippers combined with the frame mounts and tire clearance allows one to use the Fargo as a commuter, touring rig, xc bomber and a winter ride. The quality of the frame, its sizing, and its versatility make the Fargo a 'jack of all trades and master of none."
Weaknesses: Thee only issue was that from the factory. The front disc mount had to be 'modified' (bent where I am from) in order to allow the caliper and disc to align correctly.

Similar Products Used: Its a FARGO...nothing quite similar...
Bike Setup: SLX build with Planet Bike fenders (two thumbs up), Nokian Gazzas for the winter and Spec Infinity Reflects for summer, several bottle cages (24oz can holders), some lights, and a wisecracker...
Date Reviewed: January 22, 2011
Strengths: Versatile, steel frame and quality build and paint.
Weaknesses: Maybe a little heavy, about 27 pounds without water but all my trail bikes come out to about 26 to 30 pounds.
Bottom Line:
My setup with a short stem gives me a slightly upright position and is very comfortable. There are six bottle mounts, fender and rack mounts--amazing.
I can set up with all my water and equipment on the bike and it saves my back from sweating or getting achy from a pack. I'm not sure if this is the type of bike for "ripping" up the trail with, but its certainly one of the most comfortable.
This is my fourth 29er bike; not as nimble as my Redline Flight, Access XCL or as adaptable as my Karate Monkey but for touring its amazing!
I think Salsa hit the touring niche with this one.

I just returned from my first safari and it was in Botswana. After reading an article on wild dogs in Bostwana I really wanted to see some, I didn't realize I was going to get more than I wished for.
On our second day, we came across a pack of them in the middle of a hunt, we watched the entire thing, even as they got their kill right next to our truck. It was simply amazing and survival of the fittest in action. One of the dogs was also collared and tagged for tracking purposes.

Efficient Gaussian blur with linear sampling by Daniel Rákos
Sep 08, 2010
Gaussian blur is an image space effect that is used to create a softly blurred version of the original image. This image then can be used by more sophisticated algorithms to produce effects like bloom, depth-of-field, heat haze or fuzzy glass. In this article I will present how to take advantage of the various properties of the Gaussian filter to create an efficient implementation as well as a technique that can greatly improve the performance of a naive Gaussian blur filter implementation by taking advantage of bilinear texture filtering to reduce the number of necessary texture lookups. While the article focuses on the Gaussian blur filter, most of the principles presented are valid for most convolution filters used in real-time graphics.

Help us give a happy home to thousands of stray and abandoned dogs
We never destroy a healthy dog
Staffordshire Cross (SBT)
Staffordshire Bull Terrier (SBT)
A Crossbreed
We are in desperate need of part-time volunteers to help us operate our local Charity Shop.
Do you have a few spare hours each week? Would like to join our small, but very friendly team? We would love to hear from you!
If you would be interested in lending a hand, please contact our manager, Karen Griffiths, on 01722 321415. She can explain more about how your assistance will help us raise much-needed pounds for hounds!
We aim to cater for each dog's specific needs, so no-one who visits the centre is ever deemed 'unsuitable' to adopt. Each dog we have in our care needs something different from a new home so we try to match the dog to the right owner and their home environment. This means that if you have young children, no garden or are simply not as mobile as you once were, there will be a suitable dog waiting for you!
If you have a general enquiry you can email us:
Or call us: 01980 629 634
Please note the telephones are not always answered however if you leave a message someone will call you back.
As well as the dogs in our Re-homing block we also have other dogs who are also available for adoption, we call these our Super Stars. These are dogs which are looking for a specific type of home and are not usually available for daily viewing because too many different visitors can upset them.
At Salisbury we are also very lucky to have The Sanctuary. This is a fantastic facility where we can keep dogs on a long term basis if they cannot be re-homed. The dogs have heated kennels, large fields to play in but most importantly, doggie pals!
If you are thinking about adopting a puppy please think long and hard because they can be real little rascals!
They are babies after all and need you to invest A LOT of time and effort in them, in order to make them into the well trained pooch that you imagine they will be.
Have a quick read of our Puppy info and then if you seriously think you have the time and patience for one of our bundles of fun, then pop into the centre to register with us.
And don't forget, we often have the mum at the centre too who will also be available for adoption, just in case you decided a pup isn't right for you!
The answer to this question is a HUGE YES!!!
There are a few different ways you can get involved. The main one is to become a volunteer. We have many varying volunteer positions available and for some of them you don't even have to come into contact with dogs! For example we take on Receptionists, Maintenance people, shop helpers and Fundraisers so if you are allergic to or are scared of dogs but love them from afar, you can still get involved!
Volunteering can also help you get your doggie fix if you are unable to formally adopt a dog. You could sign up to be a dog walker, foster carer or even consider supporting a Sponsor dog.
To sponsor a dog you don't even need to leave your house! You can sign up online from the comfort of your own sofa! Simply choose your favourite from the list here, and then your chosen dog will then send you gifts, cards and updates three times a year!
(This is also brilliant for kiddies if they are desperate for a dog but as a family you haven't got the time for a real one!)
We always welcome donations, so if you are having a clear out just remember that we accept anything! From bric-a-brac, clothes and electricals for the charity shop, to newspapers, dogs toys and food for the rehoming centre - it's all welcome!
We are often looking for quite specific volunteers. Click here to find out more, and view our current volunteering vacancies.
Our Supporter Relations Officer, Jo Blake, can let you know about our free Canine Care Card Scheme, to make sure your four-legged friend's future is safe.
She can also help with information about leaving a gift in your will or donating in memory of a loved one.
Jo is here to spread the word about the work we do at Dogs Trust. She is very happy to come out and talk to groups or can arrange a tour and talk at the newly refurbished rehoming centre.
She also runs some local fundraising events for Dogs Trust Salisbury.
Contact Jo on 01980 629853 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

As announced few months ago, Seat will manufacture two new C/D-segment models at its plant in Martorell. One of them will come to replace the unsuccessful Toledo and will be called Bolero. It will be unveiled in 2009. A concept versions will be unveiled at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show.
The 2009 Bolero will be built on the same platform as the Audi A3, Volkswagen Golf and Seat Leon. Its design will be inspired by the Tribu Concept car unveiled last year at the Frankfurt Auto Show.
The Bolero name was used for the first time in 1998, when Seat launched the Bolero Concept, a four seater, two door coupe powered by a 2.8 liter bi-turbo engine that delivers 330 bhp.
More about the 2009 Bolero after the jump.
To be similar in size with the Skoda Octavia, the Bolero will feature a spacious cabin, courtesy of a longer wheelbase. Under the hood there will be a choice of four petrol engines, for sure the Group's latest 1.4 TSI and 2.0 TFSI engines. A very possible choice is a new evolution of the 1.4-litre VW-built turbo and super- charged unit that delivers 180 hp. There will also be a 1.8 liter TFSi engine that will deliver 160 hp and a 2.0 liter TFSi engine that will deliver 200 hp. Diesel engins will range from 105 to 170 hp.
When they took the decision to build a new model, Seat chairmain Erich Schmitt said: "The assignment of the two new C/D-segment models to the plant in Martorell is an historic step for SEAT. By these means, we enlarge our current product range, which does not only give our clients the possibility to grow with the brand, but also enables us to increase the profitability of our dealer network thanks to the availability of these new models."
Sales will begin in the spring of 2009; price around 18.000 euro ($26.500).
As said, the 2009 Bolero will come to replace the Toledo, a model launched in 1991. In 2004, Seat released the third-generation Toledo and sales have been disappointing. Critics have blamed the design of the car's trunk, which combines sedan/hatchback characteristics.
First generation Toledo was launched in 1991 and stayed on market until 1999. It was built on the same platform as the Volkswagen Golf Mk II chassis, with boot similar in shape and size to the Volkswagen Bora.
First models were powered by 1.6 liters delivering 73 hp and 2.0 liters 113 hp for the GT version. Later Seat added a few more powerful versions including a 2.0 GTI 16V that delivers 147 hp and a 1.9 TDI that delivers 108 hp.
Second generation Toledo was launched in 1999. It shared components with both Skoda Octavia and Volkswagen Bora. It was built on Golf MK IV platform.
Engine range started from a 1.6-litre 100 hp petrol engine, followed by a 1.8-litre 20-valve 131 hp unit, while the top of the line was represented by the 2.3-litre 147 hp V5 engine.
The third generation was launched in 2004. Seat quit the sedan body-style in favor of a compact MPV with the Altea's front section, a high roof and a rear-end inspired in the Renault Vel Satis.
In 2006 Seat added a 170 hp 2.0 TDI version. It has been developed based on the 103 kW (140 hp) 2.0 TDI version. The new engine features a power output of 125 kW (170 hp), maximum torque of 350 Nm(258 lb/ft) at 1800 rpm, and is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox with specific gear progression.
Similar acceleration and in-gear acceleration on this new Toledo version can be found on sporty vehicles equipped with a petrol engine. With a top speed of 211 km/h(131 mph), it requires 8.6 seconds to reach 100 km/h(62 mph) from standstill, 8.9 seconds to accelerate from 50 to 75 mph in fifth and 11.4 seconds in sixth gear. But its diesel engine values become apparent when gauging consumption – 8.0 litres in the urban cycle, 5.2 litres on the extra urban cycle and 6.2 litres combined.

Ian Levine's Praise for Doctor Who Tombraider Philip Morris
Ian Levine has apologised for his reaction to the 2009 documentary Archive Hour, where he believed that role in returning lost episodes of Doctor Who to the BBC had been written out of history, and has hinted at the haul of episodes found by Project Africa could be substantial.
With everything hanging on the on-going negotiations between Phil Morris and the BBC, Levine was given the chance to respond to Doctor Who Archive, who have recounted the extraordinary story of how the episodes weere returned, to address his behaviour around the time of the 2009 documentary:
I want to publicly and sincerely apologise to both Paul Vanezis and Phil Morris for anything that I said in anger, way back in 2009. I still do believe that I should not have been so totally left out of a program about missing Doctor Who episodes, not when I returned twenty personally, plus lots more on behalf of other people, including Paul Vanezis. But I must confess that what I said at the time was both spiteful and unfair.
[pullquote align="right"]I am so so proud of him and think of him as a kind of incredibly successful protege. I do deeply pray that he finds lots more, and in fact it is my firm belief he already has done.[/pullquote]After an announcement in December 2009, where TV Producer Paul Vanezis and Phil Morris had both made encouraging progress thanks to research into the way film was transported in Africa, the documentary focused on the pair's efforts, much to the chagrin of Levine who, annoyed by inaccuracies, vented spleen on the Missing Episodes forum, an unfortunate event that is detailed by Doctor Who Archive.
But we'll ignore that aspect of the affair for now. This fascinating story began back in 2005 where Philip Morris, then an oil worker from Formby, Merseyside, made contact with Levine about using his connections in Africa to begin searching for lost episodes.
The suggestions were largely dismissed but Ian made sure that Philip was provided with the correct documentation to launch his search. It was around this time that Ian introduced Philip to TV Producer Paul Vanezis.
It is this dismissal of the initial aid he gave to Phil that irked Levine most about the documentary:
But yes, it is a true fact that I did indeed believe in him nearly ten years ago, when no-one else did, and in fact many of the hypocrites were mocking his suggestions, which made me angry at the time, and so I then met up with him and and got him the paperwork that he needed originally. And introduced him to Paul Vanezis…
…Up till now I never once publicly discussed my being his first contact, and I do have to say that I am so so proud of him and think of him as a kind of incredibly successful protege. I do deeply pray that he finds lots more, and in fact it is my firm belief he already has done.
In fact Levine believes that he is just eleven episodes short of amassing the same amount of lost episodes that he discovered:
I WANT him to be the number one episode hunter of all time, I pray that he finds and returns another eighty episodes, and I am more proud of this man Philip Morris than I have ever been as proud of anyone else for anything, throughout my entire life. He is a genius and I just can't begin to thank him enough for the pleasure he has brought to us.
…I would not say or do ANYTHING to upset Phil Morris, because I believe he holds the answer to all our hopes and dreams in his hands. I still pray he gives us the opportunity to see Marco Polo, The Massacre, The Myth Makers, and Power Of The Daleks, even though I have resigned myself to the sad fact that my all time favourite story, The Daleks Master Plan, can never be found.
And so I must conclude by saying that we all owe the most MASSIVE debt of gratitude to Phil Morris, and as long as we get to see them in the end, none of us can object to the way he chooses to release the rest of his wonderful miraculous find.
Terrorism, government intervention and acrimony; the full extraordinary story can be read over at Doctor Who Archive – you really should go and read it now.
(With thanks to Gareth Kavanagh)
9 Responses to Ian Levine's Praise for Doctor Who Tombraider Philip Morris
Considering what happened a few weeks ago was outright considered impossible at one point, even by Levine, I really can't put "Daleks Master Plan" into the "never to be seen" category. For all we know some basement in Cardiff is hiding a bunch of silent film footage someone shot of the screen, which could then be married with the soundtrack.
Of course typical of Ian to be complimentary and condescending at the same time.
"Incredibly successful protégé" indeed!
Surprised he didn't offer him a biscuit!
At least he's publicly said he was wrong, more than any of our political figures ever do. I can see why he felt a bit spiteful about not being included in the documentary seeing as he's returned a fair few episodes himself and made loads of off air recordings years before most of us could afford VCRs.
I fully accept that there are episodes of Who that we would not be able to watch now if not for Ian but boy does he like to make sure that we all know it and never ever forget!
He always reminds me of that character in Little Britain who was Mollie Slocombe's bridesmaid and always makes sure she slips in into every conversation.
After all these years Ian still obviously feels he's not got the credit he deserves which is kind of sad.
He obviously loves Doctor Who with all his heart and soul but he does he get angry so very easily…
So is this an admission that there ARE more episodes still lurking in this find? Does seem like they knew quite a lot well ahead of time on this latest release. Somehow already having remastered the episodes, cut the advertising spots and even possibly released the one with a relevant main baddy that was being used in the current series. Could it really have been that synchronistic or have they been sitting on a haul working out how to release them in a way that draws out excitement and release dates?
phil morris is a crank. i personally know him and he hasnt a clue. hes a fantasist at best !!

Exhibit Honoring World Series Champion Red Sox Opens Dec. 5 at Hall of Fame
David Ortiz's Bat, Koji Uehara's Spikes Highlight Autumn Glory's Year-long Salute to Baseball's Champions
November 22, 2013
(COOPERSTOWN, NY) – The Boston Red Sox spent 2013 covered in facial hair and ended the season covered in glory as the World Series champions.
Starting Thursday, Dec. 5, the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum will cover the Red Sox's incredible postseason run – telling the story of the Sox's third Fall Classic title in 10 seasons through the Autumn Glory exhibit, the annual tribute to the World Series Champions in Cooperstown.
Following Boston's World Series-clinching win on Oct. 30, the Museum acquired several artifacts from the Red Sox, who notched the franchise's eighth Fall Classic title with their victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Artifacts donated by the Red Sox and featured in the exhibit celebrating the 109th World Series include:
- Bat used by World Series MVP David Ortiz in the postseason
- Spikes worn throughout the World Series by closer Koji Uehara
- Jacket worn in Game 6 by Red Sox Manager John Farrell
- Catcher's helmet and mask worn by Red Sox catcher David Ross
- Glove used through the 2013 postseason by Red Sox shortstop Stephen Drew
- Batting gloves used by Boston rookie Xander Bogaerts during the World Series
- Jacket worn by umpire crew chief John Hirschbeck during the World Series
- The fake beard Hall of Famer Carlton Fisk wore when he threw out the ceremonial first pitch in Game 6
- Bat and batting gloves used by Jonny Gomes in Game 4 when his three-run homer gave Boston the win
- Number "0" from Fenway Park scoreboard at end of Game 6
The 2013 World Series exhibit in Autumn Glory will be on display through the conclusion of the 2014 Major League Baseball postseason. Entrance to the Autumn Glory exhibit is included with Museum admission.
In 2014, the Museum will continue its salute to the Red Sox's World Championship of 2013 with special programming to be announced in the spring.
The Museum collections contain many artifacts documenting the entire history of World Series and postseason play, including Don Larsen's cap and Yogi Berra's mitt from Larsen's 1956 perfect game; Joe Carter's (1993) bat from his Series-ending blast; the jersey David Freese wore when he hit his game-winning home run in Game 6 in 2011; and World Series rings from the last century of Fall Classic competition.
The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is open seven days a week year round, with the exception of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day. The Museum observes regular hours of 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. from Labor Day until Memorial Day Weekend. From Memorial Day Weekend through the day before Labor Day, the Museum observes summer hours of 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. Ticket prices are $19.50 for adults (13 and over), $12 for seniors (65 and over) and for those holding current memberships in the VFW, Disabled American Veterans, American Legion and AMVets organizations, and $7 for juniors (ages 7-12). Members are always admitted free of charge and there is no charge for children 6 years of age or younger.

Sam Weston, the owner of Weston Technologies is furious over the security breach in his Research Lab. The prototype of his latest weapon system "Mantera" or MAN – Transformable Exo-Robotic Armour was sabotaged and destroyed. Invaluable research data was stolen and deleted from the company's mainframe. His main scientist who is leading the research team, Dr. Natasya was missing. The buyer for the new technology is pressuring Sam to deliver the prototype or the deal is off. To make matter worse, the wreckage and debris from the destroyed "Mantera" was accidentally shipped to the other side of the world…. to a young man by the name of Azman, in Malaysia.

Episode 5 of 8
Duration: 1 hour, 30 minutes
Music had always been at the heart of variety, encompassing everything from operetta and balladeers to big bands and crooners, but in the 1950s rock 'n' roll and pop arrived on the scene, the concept of the teenager was born and things became more divided. Television didn't really know how to cope with pop - so the viewer in the 60s was fed a diet of Val Doonican and Engelbert Humperdinck, and Top of the Pops was predicted to be a flash in the pan.
During the 70s bona fide pop stars such as Cilla and Cliff hosted their own Saturday night shows until punk reared its head and split the scene once again. The 80s and 90s saw pop in the clutches of the young and cool, and families didn't gather round to watch shows like The Tube and The White Room, but a new century saw the situation change yet again.
Now, after years in the wilderness, pop has made a triumphant return to Saturday night TV screens. Popstars, Pop Idol and X Factor are light entertainment's success stories. This is the story of pop music's journey back to the heart of light entertainment.
Including interviews with Cliff Richard, Cilla Black, Nana Mouskouri, Englebert Humperdinck, Simon Cowell, Pete Waterman, Nigel Lythgoe, Marty Wilde and The Vernons Girls.

Artur Boruc
34-Year-Old Goalkeeper Southampton Premier
August 17, 2014 Artur Boruc News
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc is not among the 18 for Southampton's Premier League opener against Liverpool on Sunday.
With Fraser Forster being brought in from Celtic to start, Boruc will likely look for a new team, as Kelvin Davis is comfortable in the backup role.

Artur Boruc: Past News Updates ( ▲ View most recent update )
May 12, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc made one save in Southampton's 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday.
Boruc was only beaten by a superb free-kick from United midfielder Juan Mata. After missing a number of games around the holiday period with a broken hand, Boruc managed 14 clean sheets in 29 appearances this season. Additionally, Southampton finished with the league's sixth best defensive record.
May 5, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc held Swansea City scoreless while making three saves in Saturday's 1-0 win.
Boruc has now posted four consecutive clean sheets, bringing his season total to an impressive 14 in 28 games. The goalkeeper finishes the season at Manchester United.
April 26, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc made two saves during Southampton's 2-0 win over Everton on Saturday.
Boruc has now recorded clean sheets in his last three appearances, although he did miss two matches recently due to a back injury. He has two tougher matchups coming up, at Swansea City and then home against Manchester United.
April 19, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc returned from a back injury to make one save in Saturday's scoreless draw with Aston Villa.
Boruc missed two matches with his back injury, but came back in solid fashion with the shutout. It will likely be a bit tougher next weekend against an Everton side that continues to fight for a top-four place in the table.
April 17, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc (back) has been deemed fit ahead of Saturday's match at Aston Villa, the club's official web site reports. "Artur is OK - he's fit," manager Mauricio Pochettino said Thursday.
Boruc was expected to return last weekend against Cardiff City, but apparently wasn't ready to return. He'll do so this week to face a Villa side that will be without Christian Benteke, after he ruptured his Achilles two weeks ago.
April 12, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc (back) is not in the 18 for Saturday's match against Cardiff City.
Boruc was expected to return from the back injury that held him out of last weekend's match against Manchester City, but he was not deemed fit. Paulo Gazzaniga will start in his place once again.
April 5, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Boruc will not play Saturday against Manchester City due to slight back injury, the club's official website reports.
An incredibly tough opponent with their top keeper, Southampton will really put pressure on its back four to step up Saturday. Paulo Gazzaniga will start in Boruc's place.

Acura ZDX offers unique styling and very upscale interior. Just watch your head getting into the back.
In case the styling doesn't tell you the story after a mere glance, let it be known that the Acura ZDX is far from your typical five-door, five-seat family crossover.
The brand's California-styled 'crossover coupe' blends the hulking stature and tall stance of a utility vehicle with the detailed lines and sleek silhouette of a sports car-- resulting in an interesting look that's bound to be instantly appreciated or dismissed by anyone checking it out. In your correspondents time with the test vehicle, most friends and family praised the ZDX for its uniqueness and elegance-- though a few curled up one side of their lip and even called it an 'ugly truckling'.
It's all a matter of the taste. After all, the ZDX is designed as an expressive, personal vehicle-- not an SUV for your average ma, pa, and 2.2 kids.
Beautiful trimming
Likely to be used more as a social tool by affluent couples and young professionals than as family hauler, the ZDX's cabin goes a bit wild in terms of styling and trim. Zeroing in on the less-exciting cabin of its BMW-built rival, the X6, ZDX gets plenty of contrasting materials, colours and textures throughout.
Black leather covers not only the seats and steering wheel, but also parts of the dashboard and centre console. Metallic accents and lightly-coloured plastics break the dark cabin up further, and a navigation screen and central command controller take centre stage. Controls around the latter only reveal their imprinted text once the ZDX is turned on, and the entire interior is surrounded with storage compartments and cubbies to keep owners and their occupants organized on the go.
End of the day, the ZDX's cabin is styled and trimmed wonderfully, offers heaps of at-hand storage, and is packed with fresh, clever details that make the drivers environment one of its strongest assets.

A million-dollar prize purse sounds too good to be true. But if you're crazy enough to brave the heat and the trails of South Africa in December for a 1,000km (about 620-mile), single-stage race, that bounty might be in your grasp.
Of course, the winner of The Munga—a new race that's open to pro and amateur two-person teams—doesn't walk away with a cool mil. The first pair to cross the finish line wins $750,000, second place takes $100,000, and third scores $50,000. Compared to the commemorative T-shirt you got from winning that local crit, that's not a bad payout. Bonus: The final $100,000 is the "underdog prize," meaning all finishing teams are entered into a drawing and could potentially score 100k just for completing the event.
Even riders who have completed 24-hour mountain bike races will be facing a challenge: 1,000km is a long way to pedal, and with only five aid stations to refuel, rest and recover, it'll be a brutal journey. There will be water every 50-60km on the course, but outside aid is prohibited. The course will be a mixture of gravel road, farm roads and single track. Pack your thinnest cycling kit: The race travels through the semi-desert Karoo region, and Griffin warns that "it will be hot and dry at this time of year." He adds that average temperatures hover around 88°F, though "occasional showers cleanse the air and bring a welcome break in the heat."
Pro mountain biker Alex Grant explains how he prepares to race in the heat:
But is that million bucks for real? The race's attorney, Wynne Kossuth, says: "As legal counsel to The Munga, we can confirm that $1 million has been guaranteed for the purposes of race prize money." The dough comes from a group of South African businessmen with a passion for cycling, says race promoter Michael Griffin. "They absolutely loved the concept."
Before you rush to sign up, there's one catch: It's $10k to enter, and riders must agree to the statement, "I understand that The Munga is extremely difficult, and that I am entering under my own free will," before they can even start the sign-up process.
That hasn't deterred racers, though. "Four weeks after the launch, we have just over 100 teams registered and many more working on their sponsors in order to get the funding to enter," Griffin says.
At this point, there is no separate women's category. "But we do believe that this is not just a men's race," says Griffin, "which is why we are giving a free entry to the elite ladies' winning pair at the UCI MTB Marathon World Championships in Pietermaritzburg." So at least one incredibly strong women's team will be fighting for the win.
Space is limited to 450 teams, so start saving your pennies now. Even getting to the race is a challenge, as you'll have to fly into Johannesburg and then catch a connecting flight to Bloemfontein, where the race begins. But if you love a good gamble, this might be the ride for you.

Carlisle officials are looking at replacing 800 parking meters in the borough, saying they are finding it more and more difficult to find replacement parts for the aging devices.
The borough is working with the Downtown Carlisle Association to look at possible solutions. Money collected at the parking meters helps fund Downtown Carlisle Association events and parking improvements.
Kristen Trautman, co-owner of K. Marie & Company, has been in business in downtown Carlisle for almost two years.
"I love the feel in the downtown, and we can cross promote with so many other businesses. We love being downtown," said Trautman.
Trautman is also a member of the Downtown Carlisle Association, serving as the group's secretary. She says they have been discussing several ideas on how to improve parking in the borough.
"We have talked about putting in a kiosk, where people would park and then go pay at the kiosk. We have also talked about smart meters, where you can pay with a credit card or use your smart phone," said Trautman.
The borough is only in the beginning stages of working on a plan to replace the parking meters, which will be done in phases.
The public is invited to give their input at a public meeting Feb. 25 at 6 p.m. at the Carlisle Borough Hall.

There has been a lot of criticism of the news media interviewing children right after the mass shooting tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut. As part of the news media, I don't normally criticize the news media. I know they have a job to do. Cover the news. Interview witnesses. Get ratings! (Hey, that is part of their job.) "A police officer came in and told us to run outside and so we did," one young unidentified girl told NBC News.
But I agree with the criticism. News media should not be interviewing children. And parents shouldn't allow their children to be interviewed right now.
The children in that school are bound to be in shock right now. They haven't even processed what just happened. How the next few weeks shake out will determine a lot about what happens with their thoughts and emotions going forward.
More from The Stir: Ryan Lanza Identified as School Shooter: What We Know About Him (VIDEO)
Studies have shown that talking about a tragedy immediately afterwards -- and talking, and talking, and talking about it -- deepens the neural pathways, making that groove in the brain that much more deep and difficult to ease later on. NOT that children (or adults for that matter) shouldn't talk about a tragedy. In fact, talking about it is one of the main things that facilitates healing.
But children should be allowed to process difficult emotions in their own time. That might mean that the parents bring them home, gently ask them if they'd like to talk, and if the answer is no, asking them what they'd like to do. Maybe they want to watch a cartoon. Maybe they want to go to bed. Maybe play with a pet. Maybe they want to talk about what happened. So you let them talk, and you listen. You let them do whatever they want to do. If they want to sleep with you, let them do it.
You do NOT get them on a national TV show to go over what happened, and to get into detail about the fear they felt and horror they witnessed. Let them do that next week. Or next month. Or never.
If, after a few weeks, the child doesn't want to talk about it at ALL, then you can deal with that then. It may need to be done under professional supervision. In time, it's good to get a child back into a regular routine, but right now he or she is just processing. They may not even show any extreme emotion right now. It may all come out later.
Eventually, it's good to gently point out a few things on that horrible day that may have been positive. Were their teachers leading them to safety? Are their friends okay? Did they notice all of the officers who came to help? For children to feel safe in this world, it's essential for them to know that incidents like this are not the norm, and that most people are essentially good.
Do you think children should speak to the media?
Image via AOL
I think we need to be respectful of everyone in that situation, though I do not fault the parents for allowing it. I'm sure that if I were in a similar shocking situation that I might act as I other wise didn't, or might feel it was in my childs best interest. I have no idea what it's like to be in their shoes or to have that decision.
However, I am looking to help these families, these children, these victims. I'm keep a list on my blog of resources to help, and I hope that if anyone finds a way to help them, that they will let me know.
I don't blame the parents, most of them were probably in so much shock that they didn't even realize what was going on. The media was definitely wrong to interview children, especially so soon afterwards. Honestly, what the fuck is wrong with people that they would swoop in on a child who just witnessed something so awful and all for RATINGS?? SMH Oh, but it's not the media's fault when some psycho gets it in his head that he wants to go out in a blaze of glory and takes out a bunch of innocents with him! Never mind the fact that the media will crow the killer's name and sensationalize them and their actions.
I'm a former reporter and a mother. Your post inspired mine. I think the reporters had to do their jobs and the parents have to do their jobs. http://somebodysparents.com/2012/12/defending-my-former-colleagues-december-17-2012/

UNH Faculty Senate
Motion on Academic and Programmatic Decisions
Academic and Programmatic Decisions
1. Sponsoring committee: Academic Affairs Committee
2. Motion presenter: Tim Quinn
3. Date of Faculty Senate discussion: May 5, 2003
4. Rationale:
The Academic Affairs Committee of the Faculty Senate has reviewed the following documents: Review of the UNH Division of Continuing Education and Response of the Division of Continuing Education and Summer Session to the Report of the DCE Review Committee - Parts I and II. The DCE Programmatic Review Committee was originally composed of six administrators, one staff member and one faculty member; but the faculty member resigned for personal reasons, no other faculty member was appointed, and so there was no faculty representation on the DCE Programmatic Review Committee. Shared governance is an essential component of the ongoing activities and smooth running of the university, and this implies that both faculty and administrators should be actively involved in all academic endeavors including programmatic reviews. The Faculty Senate was deeply concerned that this review went forward without faculty representation.
The selection of the chairperson for a committee is one of the most important early procedures of any committee. The Faculty Senate was concerned about the selection of Dean LaCroix (UNH-M) and the potential conflict-of-interest possibilities, especially concerning the associate of arts degree offered through DCE but also at UNH-M.
Programmatic reviews should be as thorough as possible; all available resources should be utilized; and as many constituencies as possible should be interviewed and included in the review. The Faculty Senate was also concerned about the apparent lack of interviews with important faculty members and students, the dean of DCE, and the appropriate and wise use of consultants.
5. Motion:
The Academic Affairs Committee moves that it is the recommendation of the Faculty Senate (1) that all future academic and programmatic decisions, including reviews, be made with a suitable balance of representation from the faculty body; (2) that all academic and programmatic review committees have co-chairs (one faculty member and one administrator) and that the chairs have no vested interest in the outcome of the review; (3) that whenever possible, a full and complete use of all available resources (including interviews and the use of consultants) be performed and reported without bias in any written report; and (4) that, due to the serious flaws in the process, this review of the Division of Continuing Education should be discarded and the review should be performed again following the aforementioned recommendations. A representative task force drawn from the UNH and UNH-Manchester faculty and staff should be developed and combined with appropriate administrative personnel to make up this review committee.
6. Senate action: passed, on May 5, 2003
Vote: unanimous
Senate chair's signature: Barbara Krysiak, on May 15, 2003
Forwarded to: President Ann Hart, on May 16, 2003

SPOKANE, Wash. – The Gonzaga University baseball team scored four runs in the fifth inning en route to a 5-2 series clincher over UC Davis in a shortened game at Patterson Baseball Complex Sunday. The game was called after the Aggies batted in the sixth inning because of a travel curfew.
Gonzaga (22-26) wins its seventh series of the year while UC Davis falls to 20-27 overall.
Caleb Wood got the Bulldogs big inning going with his second hit of the game. With Mitchell Gunsolus on first base, Wood doubled the Evan Wolf offering down the left field line for a run. Jimmy Sinatro followed two batters later with a double to right field to give the Zags a 3-2 edge.
The scoring continued with Sam Brown's RBI base hit to center field and Cabe Reiten's single through the left side for another. The rally was the last at bat for the Zag, as the travel curfew took effect after the Aggies last at bat.
Kenny Smith (2-5) got the win for Gonzaga after working 2.2 innings of relief. He allowed just a hit while striking out three. Smith entered the game in fourth inning for Gonzaga starter Taylor Jones who allowed four hits and two unearned runs in 3.1 innings.
Despite being a shortened game, the Bulldogs had three hitters with multiple hit performances. Brown went 3-for-3 with an RBI, Reiten went 2-for-2 while driving in two and Wood went 2-for-3 with an RBI.
The Bulldogs only have four regular-season games remaining. On Tuesday Washington State University visits Spokane for the series rubber match. West Coast Conference play comes to an end Friday as Pepperdine University is in town for three games.

It's school picture day today at the Continuous Cardboard Fire. Not Senior Year when you can dress yourself either in dress apparel or "Fuck this I'm wearing a Corona t-shirt" apparel. I speak of elementary school picture day. The day where you were guaranteed to be sporting a Cosby sweater, a severe hair part or bowlcut (or the dreaded combo), and a smile that shall only be ridiculed for years to come. 1990-1991 Skybox basketball was the NBA's school picture day for some players. One of these players was then Charlotte Hornets guard Rex Chapman. Sporting what can only be described as the remnants of a futon cover from 1971, Rex decided on the go-to pose of picture day: The Smiling Thinker. Sexy Rexy had all the ladies swooning. But he could handle it, shit he dribbled a basketball on fire!

James Bond 'Skyfall' Boosts Cut Throat Razor Sales By 405%
Posted in Shaving in the News, Shaving Shack News, Straight Razor Shaving | Comments (0)
Shaving retailer reports sharp increase in cut throat sales after 007 gets the shave of his life
The Shaving Shack, the UK's leading online retailer of premium shaving products, has attributed the latest James Bond movie for a whopping 405% increase in sales of cut throat razors.
During a scene in Skyfall, British actress Naomie Harris gives 007, played by Daniel Craig, a close shave using a cut throat razor, whispering in his ear "sometimes the old ways are the best" as she performs the shave.
And The Shaving Shack says this intimate shaving scene is the reason for the dramatic sales surge over the last five days.
The online retailer has also seen a 123% increase in web traffic since the film was released in the UK on October 26. Traffic from Internet searches for "cut throat razor" and "straight razor" have soared by a staggering 735% over the last five days, the firm added.
Nick Gibbens, The Shaving Shack's Brand Director, believes Bond's legendary style and iconic status have inspired men to try out a new method of wet shaving.
"Bond fans have an emotional attachment to 007, they love his Aston Martin cars, Omega watches and dinner suits. So it comes as no surprise that they have jumped on his love for cut throat razors.
"These luxury, old-school razors range in price from around £60 up to £300 so it's fair to say that Bond fans are spending big to ensure they look as clean cut as 007."
But Bond fans that can't splash out up to £300 on a razor are instead opting for a cut-price shavette – a close relative to the cut throat razor with the difference being that the blades can be changed. Sales of shavettes on The Shaving Shack website have risen by 509% since the release of Skyfall, with bumper sales of the budget £9.99 Bluebeards Revenge Shavette.
The Shaving Shack says it's delighted to see an increasing number of men ditching the multi-bladed cartridge razor in favour of a straight but they are also keen to point out the increased complexity of a cut throat shave.
"Shaving with a cut throat razor is certainly one of life's pleasures as it will give you the closest possible shave. But it does take time to master the technique and you'll certainly need a steady hand and plenty of practice," said Mr Gibbens.
"We strongly advise that all men take the time to read up on the correct technique."

Frutti di Mare means Fruit of the Sea, representing a dish with a myriad of seafood flavors that is popular along the coast of Italy. While this dish can include all types of seafood, the most popular seem to be shellfish. When purchased fresh, already scrubbed and cleaned, shellfish can lead to a quick and easy meal.

AquaJets blow it out of the water
The Kelowna AquaJets hosted its annual KAJ Fall Classic and Jamboree swim meets this past weekend at H20 with over 300 swimmers from 7 teams in the Thompson-Okanagan and Kootenay regions. The AquaJets swam 107 swimmers strong, earning top Women's, Men's and Overall Team Scoring titles.
"The team put in a fantastic effort on the weekend, one that all the parents and swimmers can be proud of. The swimmers swam well, and the officials ran a very well ran competition." Says Pete Wilkins, Jets Head Coach.
This is the first of two of five meets the team will host at their home pool.
Highlighting the weekend were 8 new club records and several qualifying times. A big weekend for Molly Hill - lowering three records over the two day meet in the 400 IM and 200 Fly, both were set by teammate Clarisse Obedkoff back in 2009, as well as lowering her own mark in the 1500 Free.
Josh Zakala also lowered one of his own records in the Mens 800 Free, breaking 9 minutes for the first time with a 8:52.62. Earning the oldest record of the bunch was 10 year old Max McDonald in the 200 Back, replacing 31 years of history set by Jay Johnstone back in 1981.
The team also saw three relay records fall; two in the Mens 13-14 age category, both the 4x50 Free and Medley relays consisting of Josh Zakala, Sam Mcdonald, Ben Main, Noah Robertson and Kjel Cartier. While the 10 and under Womens team made their splash in the Free relay with Taylor Desrosier, Hallie Jenkins, Molly Hill and Lochlyn Scott. Clarisse Obedkoff earned her third standard for Age Group Championships in the 200 Fly on Saturday night, earning her qualification to the meet in Montreal in July.
In the Jamboree on Sunday night, four AquaJets made their first regional qualifying time, breaking the 4 minute mark in the 200m IM. Erin Epp, Cally Melnyk, Kaelyn Willms and Kael Murphy are now able to compete at regional level competitions.
AquaJets with 100% best times were: Sabrina Akins, Nicola Crichton, Megan Elkin, Sam Hayes, Lucy Hill, Hallie Jenkins, Dafne Kaynak, Evan Kohnke, Bobbi-Jo MacMillan, Miya MacNeil, Ben Main, Max McDonald, Sam McDonald, Cailin McNeely, Cally Melnyk, Julia Michl, Theo Mohamed, Julia Petrie, Amelia Rachkowski, Ella Rolleston, Noah Rubliak, Lochlyn Scott, Tegin Shefsky, Brynn Terris and Kaelyn Willms.
In three weeks time the Jets will be off to Kamloops to swim at the Ice Classic, the Falls most competitive competition with over 600 swimmers from Western Canada attending. For more information visit the Jets online.

Paleo Recipe – Blueberry Barbecue Sauce
This past weekend my husband and I begun a new challenge to go Paleo and completely cut refined sugar, dairy, legumes and grains from our diets. We want to take our already healthy lifestyle a step further by eating mainly fresh, natural, high quality food for benefits that include maintaining a healthy metabolism, increased energy, stabilising hormone levels and minimised risk of diabetes and many other lifestyle diseases and conditions. For a great run down on the Paleo diet, read this Fit Bomb post: What is Paleo? or for a quick snapshot, click on the image below for the Greatist's Ultimate Guide to Eating Paleo infographic.
The biggest challenge for me so far – besides giving up low fat cheese, black beans and quinoa!! – has been finding good Paleo-friendly condiment recipes. In this first week, I have experimented with three barbecue sauce recipes, and I would only make one again (and I already have twice): the Blueberry Barbecue Sauce below. This recipe is very simple, very tasty and is particularly fantastic with roasted pork or turkey.
First, before making the BBQ sauce, you may need to whip up some Paleo-friendly ketchup so I have also included my favourite recipe so far. Keep in mind that you should allow at least 1 1/2 hours before using the ketchup, including sufficient time to cool down and let the ingredients marry before using it in the BBQ sauce. The BBQ sauce is very quick and simple to make – so you could always make the ketchup in the morning or early afternoon and whip up the barbecue sauce before dinner.
NOTE: I always buy organic ingredients when available, such as for the tomato passata or blueberries. Work with what you can find but ideally you are always looking for organic fruits and vegetables and free range eggs, chicken and meat.
Paleo Ketchup
- 425 g (15 oz) of tomato sauce or tomato puree (creamed tomatoes)
- 1 small onion, peeled and quarted, root end left intact
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar OR 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 3 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tbsp low sodium salt
- 1 cinnamon stick or 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
- Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan or Dutch oven and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 1 hour.
- Remove the onion quarters and cinnamon stick and discard.
- Cool for 30 minutes and refrigerate until ready to use.
Paleo Blueberry-Balsamic Barbecue Sauce
Barbecue Sauce Ingredients
- 2 cups organic blueberries
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 1/2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
- 3 tbsp Paleo ketchup (recipe above)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan or Dutch oven and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes or until sauce is slightly thick.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Process the sauce until smooth, by putting it in a blender or by using a hand blender right in the pan.
- Refigerate until ready to use.
Stay tuned as I continue to experiment with more recipes for dips and sauces! Next on the list: Paleo garlic sauce to go with tonight's dinner of Lebanese shish taouk chicken skewers.

Adam and Carmen try to cut the budget for their wedding.
I looked over the various wedding plans before me. How did it turn into this? I never expected to get married so soon. Why is Carmen so high-maintenance? This is crazy. I sat back and sighed. Plus I have work too? Geez!
I looked up when I heard the door closing. Carmen stood in the doorway with bags of things that she shopped for today.
"Hi," she greeted me. I gave her a tired smile.
"Hi baby," I said back. She noticed my face.
"Aww," Carmen cooed. "What's the matter, baby?" I shook my head at her.
"Nothing," I said. I looked down at our wedding plans on the table. "It's just... do we really need all of this?"
"What do you mean?" she asked as she walked over to me.
"Our budgets can't cover even a third of this!" I complained. "We have to make cuts." She began to pout at me.
"Really?" she whimpered. "Do we have to?"
"If we don't want to start our married life in debt," I said. She sighed at me.
"Fine, fine," she said.
"Okay," I said. "First, the location. I'm fine with just a plain church wedding and the reception at the activity center." She nodded at me.
"Agreed," she said.
"Right, now the band costs too much money," I said. "We'll have to cut them out." Carmen frowned at me.
"But, I already booked them" she complained.
"Cancel then."
"But I can't."
"Can't you ask one of your DJ friends to provide the music?"
"Maxxie's going to be out of town, Craig's working that day, Callie's baby is due then, Heather the Fox will be in Georgia, and Boss doesn't do weddings."
"We have to cancel the band otherwise we won't have enough money for everything else."
Carmen pouted as she sat back on the couch. "Fine. But what will we do for music?"
"We'll work with that later. Let's focus on the list at hand. Now, my suit and your dress are fine. They're just hand-me-downs anyway. Now for the food." I turned the page in the planner.
"The most expensive thing on the list is the cake."
Carmen gave me the look of death as she sat up on the couch. "Oh hell no! We're keeping the cake! Ever since I was a little girl, I have dreamt about have a beautiful cake for my wedding and we're going to have it, damn it!"
I quickly put up my hands. "Okay, okay. We'll keep the cake."
"Thank you."
"Now what about everything else?"
Carmen looked over my shoulder at the planner. She began to smile at me. "Oh don't, my family has that covered."
She held me by my cheeks. "My family has that covered."
I nodded at her. "Okay..." I turned back to the planner on the black glass coffee table. Carmen and spend the whole night talking about what to cut from the list to save the budget. If it was up to me, we would just have a simple church wedding and have the honeymoon right on the beaches of Florida. But instead, I'm married to such a demanding woman who wants the wedding of the century. Sigh We won't be able to pay off any of this by the time we're forty-five!

Going the distance for Fluffy
Because insurance is best used as protection against catastrophic expenses -- not those you could easily pay out of pocket -- the question becomes: How deep in the hole would you go for your pet? And then could you afford to pay those costs yourself?
|Most common surgically removed items
|1. Socks
|2. Underwear

|7. Corncobs
|8. Bones
|9. Hair ties / ribbons

|Source: Veterinary Pet Insurance
Pet insurance is a nonstarter for many pet owners, simply because they take a pragmatic approach to their animals. If the cost of treatment got too high, they would choose to have the animal put to death.
But many who think they'd draw the line at a certain dollar amount find their convictions wavering when the time actually comes, said Veterinary Pet Insurance's chief executive, Dennis Drent. The kids are crying, the vet says a treatment would be successful, and some parents break down and spend the money.
"It can be a very emotional situation," Drent said.
I appreciate the writer's overview on both sides of the "pet health savings account" argument. But I have to admit, I'm for pet insurance. While a savings account is a good idea in theory-- if you actually think about it-- it doesn't make much sense.
The typical pet insurance premium costs around $30 a month. If you were to put that $30 into a savings account each month instead of purchasing a pet insurance policy-- you would have less that $100 saved up in three months. What if your pet had a sudden accident or illness one or two months into saving? You wouldn't be able to afford much treatment.
Pet insurance companies like Pets Best Insurance reimburse 80% of the actual vet bill after a deductible. Ultimately, pet insurance helps to make vet costs more affordable for pet owners. This specific company was founded by the very vet, Dr. Jack Stephens, who founded pet insurance in the US in the early 1980s. I happen to work for the company and I also have my dog insured here.
For more information about pet insurance visit wwwDOTpetsbestDOTcom.
if your going to get insurance for your pet.. make sure you really read the fine print, figure out what specifically you are going to want it for.. and keep up on your policies....
i dont do insurance for my animals.. (i have 7) i put what i would have spent in premiums in a savings account.. i do not use that for annual exams, vaccinations etc.. it is strictly used for dentals, diagnostics, emergencies.
My dog costs me over $1000 a year. Allergies, cancer, surgeries--you name it.
VPI either rejected my claims or paid minimal on a large bill. I got rid of them after a couple of years because I realize how much they excluded. I now have PETPLANUSA and they do exactly what they are supposed to! I elected for 100 deductible and 20% co-pay. (You can adjust your level of coverage to whatever you want.) I have submitted several 1000+ claims and here is how they pay:
1000 x 80% (their responsibility) = $800 - 100 deductible= $700 PAID! You will owe $300.
Easy peesy! LOVE PETPLANUSA.COM!!
As someone who has pet insurance with another company, I can say that pet insurance does not cover everything, including dental, unless you pay a monthly premium of $65 or more. Don't get me wrong, pet insurance does cover 70%-100% depending on how much coverage you have but there are limits, restrictions, and sometimes a deductible. That is why I recently purchased Pet Assure. Pet Assure saves me 25% on services at their referred Vet's office, along with other affiliates in their network. It was automatic, no claim forms, or waiting for a check in the mail.
The Vet I found was great and less than a mile away. I have already saved more than half of my one year Pet Assure membership in one visit! My dog needed a dental cleaning (an expensive procedure), which was not covered by my pet insurance. Not only did I get a good price from the Vet but also 25% on top of that! Can't beat it.
Thank goodness for Pet Assure!

Kyoto Prize
|This article may be expanded with text translated from the corresponding article in the Japanese Wikipedia. (June 2012)
Click [show] on the right to read important instructions before translating.
The Kyoto Prize (京都賞 Kyōto-shō?) is a Japanese award similar in intent to the Nobel Prize. It recognizes outstanding works in the fields of philosophy, arts, science and technology. It has been awarded annually since 1985 by the Inamori Foundation, founded by Kazuo Inamori. The awards are given not only to those that are top representatives of their own respective field, but also to those that have contributed to humanity with their work. It has been awarded annually indeed to "those who have contributed significantly to the scientific, cultural, and spiritual betterment of mankind".[1] The Kyoto Prize is regarded by many as the most prestigious award available in fields which are traditionally not honored with a Nobel Prize. It is sometimes referred to as the Japanese equivalent of the Nobel Prize.[2]
Prizes are given in the fields of Advanced Technology, Basic Sciences and Arts and Philosophy. Within each broad category, the prize rotates among subfields, e.g. the Kyoto Prize in Advanced Technology rotates across electronics, biotechnology, materials science and engineering, and information science. The prize was endowed with 50 million yen and Kyocera stock. The prize is rising in prestige[opinion] as it covers fields not often awarded by the Nobel Prizes. The award is one of the most prestigious international awards for lifetime achievement in the arts and sciences.
