Barry is an artist, both with words and with paint. He has been associated with our organization for nearly three decades and is our go-to guy for any wildlife question. He knows his animals — especially birds — and the issues that affect them. His blogs will give you just the tip of his wildlife-knowledge iceberg, so be sure to stay and delve deeper into his Canadian Project articles. If you like wildlife and reading, Barry's your man. (And we're happy to have him as part of our team, too!)
Why Does Gloria Lindsay Luby Loathe Me?
Or Is It Zoocheck, or Elephants, She Dislikes?
Toronto City Councillor Gloria Lindsay Luby and I have never formally met, but I think she doesn't like me. Or maybe it's not that personal, and it's just an organization I'm with she doesn't like. The organization is Zoocheck-Canada, on whose board I happen to sit. But I could be wrong about both; sometimes I get the impression she doesn't like elephants.
I hope not, because in addition to being an elected Toronto city councillor, she sits on the board of Toronto Zoo, at a time when it is deciding the fate of the last surviving elephants in the zoo's possession.
While middle-aged, the three elephants have lived as long as elephants normally live in zoos. Experts who have studied the effects of captivity point out that the limitations imposed by the amount of space that zoos provide, especially in winter, eventually cause the animals to suffer from arthritis and other painful problems that don't plague elephants in the wild. That is the result of being forced indoors for long times during cold periods. That has also got to be extremely boring and frustrating for animals as naturally active as elephants.
North America has two sanctuaries specifically capable of providing the climate and the space experts deem necessary to allow these elephants to live out their lives in greater comfort than zoos provide: The Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tenn., and the Performing Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) in San Andreas, Calif.
The American Association of Zoos and Aquariums' standards acknowledge that elephants are social animals, thus zoos must keep three or more in order to be accredited. The Canadian Association of Zoos and Aquariums' standards are much the same. Mind you, they aren't exactly rigorous about enforcing the standard.
Down to the last three elephants, the Toronto Zoo is at a crossroads and must either obtain more elephants or move the ones it has. At its next to last meeting, where I spoke in support of retiring the elephants and where PAWS' Ed Stewart made it clear that zoos retiring elephants to their sanctuary were free to assist in assuring the best treatment for the animals, the zoo's board decided to close the elephant exhibit, at least for now. Zoocheck is happy to send long-time City Councillor Raymond Cho, also a Toronto Zoo director, to San Andreas to see for himself exactly what can be provided for these elephants.
But at the last Toronto Zoo board meeting Luby and another councillor, Paul Ainslie, who happens to be vice chairman of the zoo board, walked out of the meeting before the matter could be voted on. That destroyed quorum and the meeting ended.
Why? Ainslie reportedly said that he feared that "it would impact on [Cho's] ability to be impartial." Luby reportedly said, "The optics are bad and Zoocheck has their own agenda." She suggested Cho should pay his own way out of his office budget.
Zoocheck does have an agenda: to do what is best for captive wildlife! The city's newly elected administration has done nothing but complain about spending, and the need to tighten its budgetary belt, so Zoocheck offered to foot the bill. No one from Zoocheck would even be there during the visit.
But Luby also said that an investigation of sanctuaries would be contrary to the previous decision to first consider accredited members of the American Zoo and Aquarium Association (AZA) as potential recipients of the Toronto Zoo elephants. Surely a simple investigation of sanctuaries is the prudent course of action, especially considering that placement in an AZA facility is not a 100 percent certainty. If Luby doesn't think Cho can be objective, Zoocheck would be happy to send her as well! Surely as an adult she trusts herself not to be influenced by who pays her airfare.
Neither PAWS nor The Elephant Sanctuary are zoos. As Zoocheck-Canada's own Rob Laidlaw explained to the Toronto Zoo Board, zoos and sanctuaries have overlapping and complimentary interests and concerns, but nevertheless different and distinct mandates. Sanctuaries do not meet zoo standards and zoos do not meet sanctuary standards. In 2007 the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries was formed to address this very issue. Sanctuaries do not put animals on public display, but they do allow animals to live under conditions most suitable to their own interests.
I don't give a damn who pays for what, but please, consider all the alternatives. Unless Luby and the rest of the Toronto Zoo board want the elephants to continue to suffer the problems associated, not by me or Rob Laidlaw, but by experts who have studied the problem, with life in zoos, they should at least consider what is in place. If Toka, Thika and Iringa, the three surviving elephants at Toronto Zoo, could speak, surely that is what they'd want.

Actually if you're crazy (like me) and discipline, you can still do multi-target healing. With glyphs, holy nova and CoH are actually on par with each other (although holy nova technically has slightly higher heal per second).
I've always been a Gheal junky, but replacing gheal with penance (for now) is actually an interesting idea. Doubt I'll use penance much in battlegrounds since that's essentially the equivalent of a huge neon sign over your head with an arrow that says "KILL ME", but a cool idea for pve.
Andrew Welch said...
I love defending the flag with it, even though its not great tactics. Get a melee class or two to stand down the bottom and you go up onto the roof so you're hanging just over the ledge. I was able to keep up to three people in the flag room up by spamming heals.
My rotation would be:
1. Penance (start cd whenever possible)
2. PoM (instant heal in pvp tyvm)
3. Shield
And a few Flashes whenever appropriate.

It's been five years since we last encountered The Darkness, but in The Darkness II, out now on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, only two years have passed since the events of the first game. Gangster Jackie Estacado is still playing host to a malevolent demonic entity, but he's managed to keep it under control, despite still mourning the murder of his girlfriend in one of the first game's most dramatic moments. Something as powerful as The Darkness can't be contained forever, though, and when a mysterious organisation known only as The Brotherhood declares war on Jackie, he's forced to release the beast in order to survive.…

Been a long time lurking, decided to join to making tracking/watching mods, and indie games far easier on myself.
So, I did some digging and found out something rather interesting that has utterly halted my main bit of progress on my private project. Turns out, the max displayed texture resolution for the UDK is 512x512 (at-least I can't find a setting to change that.) so it was butchering my textures (not that they're that awesome anyway really.), so I thought to myself, hrm, what about Marmoset?

Neil deGrasse Tyson telling it like it is.
I mean honestly, I may only be 23, but I am really really afraid of where this country is heading under the un-leadership of the great asshole Stephen Harper.
I mean who the fuck does he think he is, I really hope he dies in a fire. Do you hear that CSIS? I Really hope, he dies in a fire.
I digress. Canadians, read the fucking news, and not the indoctrinated news, read some real news. Fact check your sources and write your fucking politicians.
Stop being fools. We have an opportunity here to change things for the better and show the world that a 1st world nation can be not assholes.
Anyway, that's the end of that rant.
Allow me to continue than, friend.
How deep does this go? Oil sands, pipelines, new military hardware we don't need, the war on drugs, the war on science, austerity measures, apartheid against the indigenous peoples of Canada, attacking the Internet and it's users, the list goes on and on and on and on……
Boron-treated carbon nanotubes soak up oil from water repeatedly
Researchers at Rice University and Penn State University have discovered that adding a dash of boron to carbon while creating nanotubes turns them into solid, spongy, reusable blocks that have an astounding ability to absorb oil spilled in water. […]
The blocks are both superhydrophobic (they hate water, so they float really well) and oleophilic (they love oil). The nanosponges, which are more than 99 percent air, also conduct electricity and can easily be manipulated with magnets. […] He then put a match to the material, burned off the oil and returned the sponge to the water to absorb more. The robust sponge can be used repeatedly and stands up to abuse; he said a sample remained elastic after about 10,000 compressions in the lab. The sponge can also store the oil for later retrieval, he said.
"These samples can be made pretty large and can be easily scaled up," said Hashim, holding a half-inch square block of billions of nanotubes. "They're super-low density, so the available volume is large. That's why the uptake of oil can be so high." He said the sponges described in the paper can absorb more than a hundred times their weight in oil. […]
"Oil-spill remediation and environmental cleanup are just the beginning of how useful these new nanotube materials could be," added. "For example, we could use these materials to make more efficient and lighter batteries. We could use them as scaffolds for bone-tissue regeneration. We even could impregnate the nanotube sponge with polymers to fabricate robust and light composites for the automobile and plane industries." […]
Mikash - For Science, mother-fucker! This is actually really amazing, and might just save the Gulf of Mexico, if people want to follow through with this.
Mooning Mercury
This discovery image provides the first evidence that Mercury has a small natural satellite or moon. Visible as a small bright spot in this image taken in March 31, 2012 by MESSENGER, the moon is approximately 70 meters in diameter and orbits Mercury at a mean distance of 14,300 km.
A proposal to name the moon "Caduceus," after the staff carried by the Roman god Mercury, has been submitted by the MESSENGER team to the International Astronomical Union, the body responsible for assigning names to celestial objects.
This discovery presents an unprecedented opportunity for a return of samples from the Mercury system. In an emergency meeting yesterday evening The MESSENGER team took a unanimous decision to use the remaining propellant to crash MESSENGER into Caduceus. With the right timing and trajectory, MESSENGER will impart just enough momentum to the moon to break it free of Mercury's gravity well and set it on an Earth-crossing trajectory suitable for recovery as a Mercury meteorite.
If Caduceus is successfully released from the pull of Mercury and placed on a course to reach Earth, we can expect the moon to arrive at Earth by 2014. The MESSENGER team have designed a trajectory that will bring the moon to Earth at a remote location on the Wilkes Land ice sheet in Antarctica within reach for retrieval by the scientific staff at the U.S.-operated McMurdo Station.
Make sure you read this twice then show it to a friend & respect the brilliance that is science.
A decade ago, biologist Irving Weissman of the Stanford University School of Medicine in Palo Alto, California, discovered that leukemia cells produce higher levels of a protein called CD47 than do healthy cells. CD47, he and other scientists found, is also displayed on healthy blood cells; it's a marker that blocks the immune system from destroying them as they circulate. Cancers take advantage of this flag to trick the immune system into ignoring them. In the past few years, Weissman's lab showed that blocking CD47 with an antibody cured some cases of lymphomas and leukemias in mice by stimulating the immune system to recognize the cancer cells as invaders. Now, he and colleagues have shown that the CD47-blocking antibody may have a far wider impact than just blood cancers.
"What we've shown is that CD47 isn't just important on leukemias and lymphomas," says Weissman. "It's on every single human primary tumor that we tested." Moreover, Weissman's lab found that cancer cells always had higher levels of CD47 than did healthy cells. How much CD47 a tumor made could predict the survival odds of a patient.
Ahh, but it's a cure, and not a treatment, so I wouldn't get too excited about this. As long as Big Pharma exists, we'll all be sick as we let ourselves become.
A Scottish start-up has figured out how to make biofuel—and other useful stuff—out of whiskey distillery waste.
Celtic Renewables has figured out how to ferment whiskey waste and turn it into biofuel, along with two other useful products.
Here's how it works: To make Scotch whiskey, you take barley, separate out the sugar, add water and yeast, and ferment it. The result is similar to beer. The next step is to distill the alcohol from that beer in pots. Set it to age in wooden casks, and a few months later, you have whiskey.
The problem is that the process creates a lot of byproduct: First there are the remains of the barley, called draff. And when you distill the alcohol, you're left with a liquid called pot ale, which is hard to dispose of because it contains biological components that can acidify ecosystems, along with traces of copper that are leached from the pots. Celtic Renewables makes a soup out of the pot ale and draff. Then—through a fuel-making fermentation process that was developed during the leadup to World War I but fell out of favor when it couldn't compete with petroleum—the company converts the stuff into biobutanol fuel, animal feed, and acetone.
Mikash - AWESOME!
"The bottom line is this: increasing the risk of arrest and the likelihood of going to prison produces modest reductions in property and violent crime, but increasing the length of prison sentences exerts no effect at all," Dr Weatherburn said.
"The question most offenders are asking is, am I going to get caught? They're not sitting down and thinking, well if I am caught will I go to jail and if I do how long will I go for?
"The only question in the front of their minds, many of them not being great long-term planners, is what's the chance of being caught if I do this?"
Dr Weatherburn says the study found a booming economy is the surest way to reduce crime.
He says a 10 per cent increase in household income produced an estimated 19 per cent reduction in property crime over the long term and a 15 per cent cut in violent crime.
Ah, but the government's plan is not to help people get more income, it's to trap them in slave labor jobs. It's a real shame we aren't a country founded on science and research for our laws. Instead, we end up in a place governed by the gut.
right on!
oh lord

Wounderful Dry Fly Hackle
Reviewer: A viewer from South East USA
Great hackle to use when you dont want to spends tons on big capes. These are nice quality. The one thing though is when you pull them out of the pack sometimes they break. Make sure when you pull them off that you pull it from the top! Over all it is a great hackle! You can tie lots of flies from it!
almost 5 stars
Reviewer: A viewer from Rehobeth, AL US
These are astoundingly good quality feathers for hackling dry flies. The barbule density does not quite match that of neck feathers, but that is typical of even the best saddle hackles, and these are about the best. The minor issue I had was they run a little small for the Mustad Signature R43 and R50 hooks I use. The latest package I bought was size 14, and the barbule length is about the hook-gap of a #14 hook, just a little short of what is perfect. I usually hackle over a dubbed thorax, so that compensates a bit. These are perfect for #16 hooks. Other than that, these hackles are almost unbelievable in quality.

whiting hackle alreadys is the best and this is something that just makes it better this product is very high quality and easy to use because they tell you the size DEFINETLEY WOULD RECCOMEND THIS

3 Ways You May Be Ruining Your Knives
Do you know the quickest way to dull a knife? Turns out there are three. I'm the first to admit I've done two out of three of these things at one time or another, but now I know better — and you can, too!
3 Ways You May Be Ruining Your Knives
1. You store your knives unsheathed in the utensil drawer.
There are a few reasons this is bad: first of all, it's dangerous to have a knife loose in the drawer. Secondly, an unsheathed knife rubs against other things, which causes it to get dull very quickly. The best way to store your knives is on a magnetic knife strip or in a knife block.
If you're really short on space and need to store those knives in a drawer, just slip them into a blade guard first! You can get a set of four on Amazon for about $10.
2. You put your knife in the dishwasher.
Knives should never go in the dishwasher. Dishwasher detergent is very abrasive, and along with the banging around that happens during a wash cycle, will take the sharp edge right off your knife. (Plus, it's not safe for the person unloading the dishwasher!)
Always wash knives by hand in the sink with dish soap and water. Keep the blade facing away from you and the knife low in the sink. Also, don't leave your knife to air dry. Instead, take a tea towel and, holding the knife with the blade facing away from you, dry the knife in short vertical motions perpendicular to the edge. Running a tea towel horizontally along the blade is very dangerous, and a sure-fire way to cut yourself. (Don't worry — I did this for a long time, too!)
3. You slide your knife, blade down, across the cutting board to clear away what you just chopped.
Oh man. I am still trying to break this habit! Do you do this? After you've got a pile of chopped veggies, you scrape your nice, sharp knife — blade down — right across the cutting board to clear some space. Of course when you actually think about it (as I did) that's a terrible way to treat the blade!
An easy solution: just flip the knife over before you slide! That way the flat spine side does the clearing, and you don't ruin your blade.

I'm guilty of #3 as well. Even though I have a pastry bench scraper that I use frequently to get the cut items to their intended location (pan, bowl, etc.)-I'd say it used only 1/2 the time.
This was a really helpful post!
I would add #4: You use a glass cutting board.
I asked a chef once about #3 and he told me it didn't matter...I didn't believe him though, so I use a bench scraper. I love that drying tip, I've been doing it wrong!
Well actually Wuesthof (and other manufacturers) say that you can clean their knives in the dishwasher:
DD Lizzy beat me to it, but i agree that #4 is using a glass cutting board. Makes me cringe when i see it! :)
#5. Removing from the magnetic strip by pushing the blade side into the magnet & dragging it off. Took me a couple of weeks to get into the habit of pushing down on the top side, & my knives stay much sharper.
Guilty of #1 and #3. I'm planning to get a magnetic strip--that will cure #1. As for #3, I've got to train myself to flip that blade!
Slicing into hot food can also dull your knife
#6...using a grinder (or grinding service) to sharpen.
RE: knives in the dishwasher...ABSOLUTELY NOT RECOMMENDED, but not for the reason people usually think (they'll get banged around). Actually, the heat from the dishwasher is what you have to worry about, as high temperatures can ruin the temper of your knife's steel, so that it will not hold an edge.
No.3 for me too! It's, sadly, just so convenient.
re: magnetic strip...
although handy, depending on the type of knife and size, a magnetic strip can warp your knives... i have a strong global-brand knife strip and a pair of 10 and 12in vintage carbon steel chef's knife to prove it. molecularly, it makes sense — pulling of the metal from one side and all
so, tip: flip your knives every once in a while — six months on one side, six months on the other.
It says "Technically", and there are a numer of reasons why you SHOULDN'T clean them in the dishwasher
My point is: the dishwasher detergent doesn't blunt the knives. So you can put them in the dishwasher if you avoid all the other things they mention.
Nr.3 - just flip your knife over and use the top/the dull side. Easy peasy and no need for a bench scraper. Been doing this for years :)
I simply throw away a knife after each use.
Here's a hint, don't buy a crappy knife. Get a good knife and you'll WANT to take care of it. Funny that the picture to this article shows what appears to be a cheap $6 Ikea knife. I'd never use something like that.
Also, in reply to Cindy about asking a chef about #3, well, he probably has a steel and uses it to sharpen his knife 2-3 times a day and has it professionally sharpened regularly, so no, it doesn't matter to him, as he's constantly taking care of it.
Argh! #3 makes me crazy -- all the TV chefs seem to do it and I want to slap them. Further pet peeve on TV chefs: so many of them wear rings, bracelets and watches when they cook. I can't stand seeing them touch food with their hands, e.g., mix meatloaf, with their rings on!
However, I do wash my knives in the dishwasher. I've had the same Wusthoff chef's knife, two sizes of paring knife, and carving knife for 30 years. They're still going strong. If I need to replace them (perhaps once in my ifetime), it's worth it to me for the thousands of times I haven't had to hand-wash them!
Also NEVER let go of a knife once its in the dish water. When you, or someone else puts their hands back into the water, they cant see where the knife is and can slice or puncture their hand. Always hold onto the knife until its clean, dry and back where it belongs.
I knew about #1 & #2, but #3 was a new one to me!
I do all three, as well. Knives are there to be used and abused, you can't be precious with kitchen tools. But I'm someone who cuts meat with kitchen scissors!
Wow, I never knew you could temper steel at 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Now tell me the one about the car that runs on straight up water in the gas tank!
@herzsprung What Wustof actually said in the link you provided -
'If you value your tools, we recommend washing your knives with warm, soapy water after each use. Rinse carefully and dry with a towel.
Technically, WÜSTHOF knives are suitable for cleaning in the dishwasher (except knives with wooden handles), but there are a number of reasons why precious knives should not be cleaned in a dishwasher'
So, yes you CAN put your good knives in your dishwasher, but they and other makers of quality cutlery do NOT recommend it
since when do we have to "wash" knives anyway? immediately after using them, run them under warm water. Rub with a dish cloth, and then dry with a towel. all of ten seconds. max. and the knife is free for next use (I have only a few, great, Globals rather than a set of a bazillion specialist knives)
soiled in the league of burnt-on stains? maybe then dishwasher, though I'm at a loss how you would get a knife dirty enough to warrant that.
There's a reason Alton Brown refers to glass cutting boards as dark lord of the sith evil.
@Battra92, that's hilarious.
I was told about #3 by my boss in high school (small catering company). I flip over my knife to scrape to this day, and tell everyone I can to do the same! I'm also lucky enough to have been gifted a pretty nice basic set of knives when I got married 4 years ago, so my knifes are still in good shape overall.
Another one: leaving your knives sitting in water. I had a roommate who did this to my knives ALL THE TIME. He wasn't soaking stuff off, he just liked to cook a bunch of stuff and leave it soaking until most of it was taken care of because one of us would wash something in order to use it. I was gone for weeks at a time but I would sometimes see the same mess I had left behind. The knives were rendered useless relatively quickly.
4. Not using a honing steel (butcher's rod, sharpening steel, etc) before each day's use. Using a steel regularly prolongs the time between sharpenings and makes cutting easier.
One of the big dangers of using a dishwasher is the softer handle materials start to degrade from the harsh dishwashing detergents. The heat is not high enough to soften the temper of the steel, but ii is hot enough to degrade many ;handle materials.
A cooking course I took recommended that we NOT buy our cutlery from the boutique cooking shops. He recommended commercial restaurant supply shops (our local one is a Bargreen Ellison) where many of the line chefs buy their knives. Only 4 knives are needed: 10" chef, 6" Santoku, 4" paring and a bread knife. Buying those butcher block sets were a waste of money, said he.
Oh yeah the glass cutting board, they are the pits. Have heard from others that bamboo is also too hard in knives.
I smell a "Troll".
A knife's burr/edge is an extremely thin piece of metal. While 150° F certainly isn't going "melt" your knife, it absolutely can affect the blade's ability to take an edge.
I can't say for sure, but I don't think it's an Ikea knife, I think it's the Forschner/Victorinox chef's knife that both this site and America's Test Kitchen have recommended. It is a cheaper one, but a great knife. I've had the same one for 15 years and still love it. Sorry to sound a bit defensive of my knife, @jberickson.
Yes, they say you can, but that doesn't mean you SHOULD. You're not doing the thin, finely ground edges of your knives (and their handles) any favors by exposing them to multiple baths of boiling hot water and searing air heat (from 130 to 170 degrees). Yes, there are more damaging ways to dull a knife—cutting on porcelain for example—but dishwashers are definitely on the list. Remember, the manufacturers themselves are not exactly impartial parties—the more knives wear out, the more knives they sell :)
Things to add to the Ruining-Your-Knives List:
- bamboo cutting boards—the nodes are ultra hard and will chew up the blade, especially with heavy work like chopping
- cutting boards made of ultra hard woods like Jatoba (Brazilian Cherry)
- cutting boards made of hard plastic (versus polyethylene)—if you can cut or slice the board with your knife it's OK
- thin cutting mats over granite or other super-hard surfaces—not enough buffer against the hard material below
- frozen food—cookie dough, chocolate, steaks—disaster
Wow. The comments have some great advice! I guess I need to GI buy some "real" knives and start taking care of them! Mine are ruined, and now I know why.
what if i have the dishwasher on the energy save cool cycle?
For those of you thinking about new knives, you can get much higher-quality knives than the mass-produced Henkel/Wustoff/Shun/Globals for less. The thing to look for is high-quality steel. M390 steel is hard and takes a fine edge, but it also wears fast and has to be carefully sharpened. White #2 steel is what the finest bladesmiths in Japan use, but you can find daily-use knives for less than $100. This steel isn't stainless though, so it will discolor and rust if not cleaned, dried thoroughly, and oiled. AEB-L steel is a good compromise for everyday use.
For example, the Richmond Artifex 210mm gyoto can be had for $75 and is an excellent daily workhorse. (I have no connection to the manufacturer or any reseller.)
I gather from this list + the comments that the best way to keep your knives sharp is just not to use them at all. Personally I break all of these rules and simply sharpen my knives every 6 months. I've had them for going on 10 years now with no trouble, so I'm honestly not sure what all the fuss is about. They're workhorses -- I expect them to work.
To each their own Sprayfaint, each their own :) More power to you, but I would never have the time or desire to sharpen my knives every six months. And I don't think I'm alone. (I'm a stay-at-home Dad who does freelance work, takes care of the house, tries to write, etc.)
So, instead, I get them professionally sharpened (not just anywhere), hone them regularly, and try to keep them out of harm's way. The last time I had my Henckels chef sharpened was over two years ago and, although it needs to be resharpened, it will still slice paper.
That's MY solution!
Thanks for the post Cambria. By the way I love your name, it's so pretty. I've got numbers one and two covered, but am definitely guilty of number three. I had never even considered that doing number three would dull the blade. I agree it's going to be tricky to break the habit.
I thought the best steel was "blue", followed by "white" and then "yellow". Well, in Japanese, I guess technically the terms are different in english. I need to figure out how to sharpen my (japanese) knife, though... I'm not sure I can just take it to sur la table, though they do have some of the sharpening stones for sale, so presumably they can sharpen knives with the same process...????.
Everybody has this "where will I sharpen my knife" problem! My solution has been to mail them to top-notch professional sharpening services. The turnaround can be fast and the prices reasonable. On my website, KitchenKnifeGuru.com, I have a review of three quality sharpening services that includes a list of sharpening services that specialize in Japanese knives. (Although many Japanese knives do not HAVE to be sharpened on waterstones. It depends on the knife and the operator.)
Buying a high-quality knife is great for the kitchen, but being able to properly maintain it is just as, or more, important :)
Well, for me, the thing is that I have only 1 knife worth the angst. XD (I only have 2 knives at all!) So I'd feel dumb shipping just this one knife to be sharpened; I would prefer to be able to have it sharpened somewhere I would normally go anyway . I guess I'd also be nervous about sending off my <s>samurai sword</s>giant knife through the mail.
hey lepidoptery,
Yes, it's definitely not as cost effective to mail out only one or two knives. Better to do three of four at least. But if you're worried about losing them, you can insure them coming and going for not that much.
If you can find a quality outfit in your neighborhood, that's great! But my experience has been that it's not always easy to find quality sharpening services nearby, and after a couple of less-than-ideal experiences, I found mailing them to companies with great reviews and a good track record, an excellent solution. Plus, I'd rather be safe than sorry--even if it might cost a bit more, and take a bit more time and trouble.
At any rate, if you're committed to going local, you might find my article Finding a Professional Sharpening Service helpful (on the KitchenKnifeGuru website).
Just get a knife holder from this guys, http://www.mocwoodworks.com/mocboards I love mine!
These great new knives from Unikia in Norway can go in the Dishwasher because their Japanese Steel blades are coated in Silicone making them non-stick and easier to clean. Their ergonomic design has just picked up the prestigious 2014 IF Award in Germany. You can check them out here

Box is finally countering Dropbox's revamped iOS app with a redesign of its own. Its updated cloud storage software centers around a fresh, iOS 7-native interface that's both simpler and faster at drawing content. The app takes advantage of that newfound speed, too -- it now previews over 100 file types with accurate rendering, and grid views make it easier to find photos and presentations. Box has also slipped in real-time searching, a comments sidebar and the option to copy, delete or move multiple files at once. Even if these features don't justify an upgrade by themselves, the company is sweetening the pot by offering 50GB of free, lifetime space to anyone who downloads the new app within the first 30 days. If you're at all interested, we'd suggest hurrying to the App Store.

Its' free and it takes less than 10 seconds!
Now before I say anything I want to point out that I am by no means trying to draw anyone away from CA I'm just trying to get my art in more places.
So I have talked to several people about DA and they refuse to use any other art website in that category. Every time I go on their though I get this weird feeling that somethings off and although they have a flashy look to the site, the actual members seem to be either inexperienced and a bit rude or only willing to draw fan art(which as nice as fan art is, it's still not your idea so you cant do anything with it)
I guess the tone just puts me off but like I said their are some people I know that I would like to share my art with but I am just not sure I feel comfortable showing my work if it's just going to get a "nice work" every once in a while or someone who doesn't have the morals (or might now now any better) to not take my ideas.
Please don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that DA is a bad site(hell I barely know anything about it) I just want to know how the community compares to the great atmosphere here at CA.
Thanks so much to anyone who was willing to listen to my babble
Oh and if I posted this in the wrong spot could you tell me where to put this thread because I honestly have no clue
To me, it's yet another art community. Another place to post my art and get exposure. I have been a member for 5 years and have like, 2700 views. LOL! Compared to some of the deviant artists... that's piddly. But, for me, one more person who sees my art that might not have seen it here or on my blog or on another site, is another person who might remember me and buy my art book one day, ya know?
I'm not as involved in the community aspect there as I am here and other forums though. I just look at pretty things and post my own stuff
@Goldilockz: Thanks, thats the first time I didn't have to reiterate what I meant on a post(I guess I'm as vague when I type as when i talk ) I think I like CA for the community aspect that you talked about, is that what most people do on DA(post their own stuff and look at things that catch their eye occasionally)?
I think there is a pretty strong community there too, and it's probably a decent one, I think I just haven't found my little corner of it haha!@Goldilockz: Thanks, thats the first time I didn't have to reiterate what I meant on a post(I guess I'm as vague when I type as when i talk ) I think I like CA for the community aspect that you talked about, is that what most people do on DA(post their own stuff and look at things that catch their eye occasionally)?
The difference I like between the two is that DA is a cool place to get some happy thoughts ("great painting" "I like your art" etc), whereas CA is where I come to get my stuff ripped up in that "We're gonna help you improve whether you like it or not" kind of way hahahahaha (along with encouragement and uplifting compliments too!). Crits on the sites seems to be quite different, but it's a good different, imho.
@Goldilockz: Good point, I hadn't thought of it like that
Looked at your work, Absolutely amazing stuff, will have to drop by later
Thanks! I still have a lot of work do to, but I'm learning more every day Your stuff is really cool and imaginative. I have a hard time coming up with stuff from imagination.
It's a kiddie site.
From a professional point of view it's a demographic access point. f you have a product you want to pitch to that market, it could be a useful promotion or distribution outpost. It can be used the same way you'd use cafemom or tumblr.
I would look seriously askance at anyone who used it to promote themselves as a professional. In fact, on the odd occasion I hire freelancers I refuse to click on DA links or look at galleries.
You don't make it big in the food business by telling everyone that you eat in Macdonalds.
@Atreides: Kinda harsh man, but I kinda got that feeling myself.
I guess my other big concern is that these "kids" are going to act like kids and not artists. Here people wont stand for others stealing work but I have no clue how willing the community might be to point out when someone has obviously stolen another person's hard work
I wonder if...
This topic at all...
might possibly could have...
Been done before.
Just to name a few.

There are a limited number of conversation topics in the world. They all come around again. When you're young that seems tedious, but when you're a bit older it is just natural.
As has been discussed before whenever this topic comes up, you can do worse than DA. Even a number of professionals have their DA accounts. Like someone above said, it's just another avenue for marketing yourself. The more places your art will be seen by someone, the better, IMO.
Just don't expect serious crits from the people there.
Damascus57: Oh sorry man, I'm absolutely awful at looking for things
No need for the sarcasm though, I get when I messed up
@everyone: This is why I love CA, but I do need to show my stuff in more places it's just hard to figure out where to go.
Again, please excuse my "noob"ness
If it helps any, there are people who made their break through their dA.
If you want to join, do it. But you should have a different website/blog for promoting your own work. I see DA as more of a high-fives and LOL community than one for serious promotions...
Well the reason I wanted to join was for publicity more or less but if their community if overpopulated by people who aren't serious about their art then it's not worth the extra effort. On a side note, from the few times I've been on I just cant stand all the ads everywhere and the excess of naked cartoon images with no artistic value what so ever
dA is a really large place. It's often used by foreign artists and teenagers because it's free and easy to use. So you can find some completely amazing stuff there you would have a hard time finding through people's individual sites, aaaand you can find a lot of crap or drama. What your experience there is like depends largely on who you hang out with. Much like the rest of the internet, really.

dA is a cool site. It's a nice place to host hour artwork and they have decent portfolio hosting for free. There are lots of good artists on there and it's easy to subscribe and keep up date with them. It's also pretty easy to give your art exposure if you put a little effort into it. Of course there are plenty of negative aspects to dA, but those can be avoided for the most part. Having to see a few furries on the home page is hardly the worst price you might pay considering the benefits. If your goal is to get recognized by employers it's probably not going to be your best bet, but hey, doesn't hurt to have one.
It's a site where showing a close up webcam photo of your penis is considered art. I'm not kidding.

Why having an account on a site or the other turns out to be an existencialist issue?.
Post on DA, post on CA, post on Gaia if suits you fancy, Post on all, post on none.
Does it really matter?.
Most professionals in the comic book and concept art field have DA accounts, so don't feel bad about using it. The fact that anyone can join means there's bound to be a lot of crap, but there's also really great stuff. Brad Rigney, Adam Hughes, Udon Crew, and Randis all have DA accounts, to name a few.
It didn't use to be so bad when I first joined.
The worst part is everyone has an opinion and it's not always constructive. I personally like drawing Godzilla, and it never fails. Someone always makes some comment like "oh, this godzilla body might be better with a Heisei head" or some other crap comment SHUT UP.
The main thing I hate about DA is like Vari said their definition of "art". They promote some hippie crap fundamentals where, "everything is art" yet I've had to flag 2-3 pieces over the year of people who have used my art, and didn't credit my site or anything.
The one thing I will say is, their copy write system they have on there has helped me legally protect some characters I have. If anything, it's a good place to upload your stuff, and give it some documentation of legal ownership.
I think Matt Frank http://www.mattfrankart.com/ was noticed on DeviantArt and that's how he got his start.
DA is a stepping stone pure and simple.
during my whole 2 years spent on DA i havent recieved a single critique ,, i only get comments like OMFG its awesome, but those people are allways the ones that i dont need comments, i dont give fuck if someone who cant draw a damn cube gives me such high praise,, that is the only thing that i hate at DA cause its really hard to get known and get serious critique..
also Randis, i know he doesnt care about popularity,neither do i but he should be totally in the same league with Artegm( spelling) and even better,, and another example is Moonxels(MOONCHILD),, the guy is an awesome artist and he isnt really known,, dont get my wrong, i am pissed just cause there are tons of people like me that are more known than guys like him and our works suck compared to his,,
i also know a lot of awesome artists that dont even have 5 watchers ,, thats why i hate DA cause everyone can join,, and its filled with tons of crap,

@Oruntier: Thanks
@Vineris: Valid point, thanks dude.
@BlackSpot: Not to offend anyone but I hate FireFox… or maybe it hates me, or my computer So I steer clear of using it unless I absolutely have to.
@Naidy: I have no clue what Elfwood is but it sounds like it's better that way.
@Liffey:All true, but I still don't see why they don't at least try and minter some of the images that are obviously weren't made with any artistic intent if u know what I mean
@Vari: Haven't seen that before, sounds like they have a lack of people monitoring content.
@Flashback: well… yes, I kinda figured that much man
@ReneOchoNueve: Well I just was trying to spare myself of a possible unpleasant experience if I could because I have enough headaches with out more things thrown in
@Ccs: Thanks dude
@Acivicdilema: Yeah, I really hate two things when it comes to feedback, loudmouthed ass holes and cushy generic pats on the back. Of course a mixtures of the two can be great but if all you have to say is one or the other than it's best not to say anything at all
Does DA have a special Copyrights set up or is it the same for posting your work on any site? Thanks for the response dude, helped allot
@Brashen: I think I get what u mean. Thanks man.
@BanKai: Dude, I don't wana start anything but if someone comments on your work their ability doesn't matter, I'd be more upset if some master artist came on my SB and said something like that Also anyone can join this site too, so I don't see what you mean. And who are Randis and Artgem?
no you got me wrong, i mean that i ONLY receave positive coments from people which skills are years bellow me, i want to get comments like i get here,, also how is it posible that you dont know how those 2 are ? ,, just type their names on Google images and you will see xD

When I teach a group of 15 or 20 students, I do it by going around the room, learning each person's name, and asking a question. If the person doesn't give the right answer, I ask the next person. If that doesn't work, I give a hint and ask the next person. We keep going around the room with questions such as "What happens if you have the helicopter parked on a frozen lake and turn on the engine to start the rotor system spinning?" (answer: fuselage turns in the opposite direction; this leads naturally to the next question "What would you then want to add to the helicopter?" (answer: tail rotor)).I think I'd really enjoy a class like this, assuming the teacher knew what he or she was talking about. I think it would definitely solve the "people looking at laptops or phones while bored" problem.
Students stay awake because they know that they're going to be asked a question within the next five minutes or so. The material ends up being naturally paced to the comprehension level of the class. If people aren't answering correctly, the class slows down, people have more time to think, and I provide more explanations. At any time during the two-hour class I can tell you which students are getting it and which may need remedial instruction.
Has anyone had their laptop or phone taken from them in class. If so, how did you respond?
So how would you respond if you were free to just read on your own, take the tests,write the papers, not show up for class or for group exercises; but the best grade you could get would be a B+?

Western Sydney: Biggest development region in New South Wales
Thu November 21, 2013
The latest report from the Department of Planning and Infrastructure has highlighted the extreme growth being undertaken in Western Sydney, with more than $12 billion worth of approvals for infrastructure and development projects in the area over the last year.
Projects in Western Sydney alone were worth more than the total combined value of all state significant projects across the whole of New South Wales, which highlights the rapid growth of the region.
Minister for Planning and Infrastructure Brad Hazzard said Western Sydney was the "jewel in the crown" and extremely important to the development of the state's economic growth as a whole.
Mr Hazzard went on to say that the New South Wales government were committed to having at least 50 per cent of all new jobs in Sydney to be located in the Western region.
This is to put Western Sydney in the "driver's seat to make New South Wales number one again" through investment in infrastructure, employment and housing. This will produce almost 4,000 full time jobs in the area, with a further 21,000 direct and indirect jobs created during the construction phases.
For example, the North West Rail Link project has had $8.5 billion committed to it. This infrastructure development is expected to provide crucial transportation for people to commute in and out of the city, aiding the growth of outer suburbs in Sydney.
Furthermore, the creation of the draft Broader Western Sydney Employment Area Structure Plan will further stimulate the local area. Aiming to provide 57,000 new jobs over the next 30 years, this plan is plotting the development of the largest employment space in New South Wales.
Other projects include a $70 million upgrade for Old Wallgrove Road in Western Sydney's current Employment Area, which will help to provide more jobs near major housing growth areas.
The rezoning of land in Penrith, Narellan and Liverpool is also being planned to aid the construction of three new retail and development hubs in the region. This has the potential to create more than 4,000 new jobs - further promoting the growth of the region as a viable living option and an economic powerhouse in the state.
The housing market is also beginning to grow in the area. According to Mr Hazzard, there has been a huge boost to the construction market, which is resulting in the growth of residential properties in the area.
"Housing approvals in Western Sydney during 2012-13 made up 49 per cent of all housing approvals across Sydney," said Mr Hazzard in a November 20 statement.
"The new planning system currently before the Upper House will directly support an additional 2,000 jobs in Western Sydney in the residential construction industry."

A Mother's Kaddish: Mourning for My Son, From the Women's Section
After my child died, I reconnected with God through prayer—which is the point of Kaddish, on both sides of the mechitza
This essay is excerpted from Kaddish: Women's Voices, edited by Michal Smart and Barbara Ashkenas, which won a National Jewish Book Award last week.
It is hard to believe that it is four years since Nathaniel's passing. I still feel his presence throughout the day and miss his warm, smiling face and upbeat outlook. The name Nathaniel means "gift of God," and that is what he was. He woke up almost every day with a smile, eager to greet the world. An optimist by nature, the words "no" or "can't" were not a part of his vocabulary. He viewed life as a series of opportunities to explore and experience. Although never seeking the limelight, he always desired to be where the action was. He loved people and places, and was always ready to try something new. Although Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a progressive deteriorative disease, reversed the normal course of his life, he managed to enjoy all that he could participate in.
From the time of Nathaniel's diagnosis at age 6 he began to decline. He lost his ability to walk at age 8 1/2 and by his early teens was fast becoming a quadriplegic. Instead of being a mother who slowly let her child grow toward independence, I was forced by necessity to be a mother who had to involve herself in every aspect of my child's life. From showering, to toileting, to dressing and feeding, as Nathaniel deteriorated his every function became the responsibility of those who loved him most, his family.
With his death at age 21, on that cold day in April, my constant physical orchestrations ended, but my emotional desire to care for my son did not. The desire to do for one's child does not die with that child.
When Nathaniel passed away, we in his immediate family were obligated to say Kaddish for the shloshim, the thirty-day period of mourning. My husband, Ruvan, my other children, Jonathan and Jackie, and I were steadfast in taking on this chiyuv (halachic obligation). After all, didn't Nathaniel deserve this last act of devotion? As the days of that first month dwindled, Ruvan told me that he wanted to take on the obligation of saying Kaddish for the full eleven months. The minute he said that, I too knew that I wanted to take on this longer obligation, as well. Had Nathaniel had the zechut, the privilege of living a full healthy life, chances are he would have had children to say Kaddish for him. Since that was not to be his fate, who would be more appropriate to say Kaddish for him than his mother? I carried him in my womb, I birthed him, and I orchestrated the life he led. For his 21 years our lives—his and mine—were inextricably bound together. It was out of a profound sense of loss that I took on the commitment to say Kaddish.
At that moment, I don't think I fully grasped what saying Kaddish would really mean. Yes, I knew it was said at three different prayer times every single day. Yes, I knew I would have to say it for close to a year. But no, I don't really think I thought about how difficult it would be for a person like me who is, despite the best of intentions, perpetually tardy. All I knew was that I was grieving for almost every aspect of my son's short life and I wanted desperately to be able to connect to him. Kaddish was a means for me to continue doing for Nathaniel.
Since I was a little girl, I was told that there are many levels in heaven and that when a Kaddish is recited for a loved one, that neshama gets to move to the next level. Although I'm not quite sure what I presently believe, I do know that hearing "his neshama should have an aliyah" was quite comforting to me. It helped to make that nebulous void of death feel like a slightly more tangible, cause and effect relationship. If people heard my Kaddish they would say "Amen" and help to make Nathaniel's ascension in heaven happen.
I most often said Kaddish at my Modern Orthodox synagogue on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. I was not the first woman in my congregation who chose to say Kaddish and I am certainly not the last. At one point, we had as many as six women saying Kaddish, some out loud, some in a low voice, according to the way they are comfortable, not dissimilar from the ways different men say Kaddish. For the most part I felt comfortable saying it there and felt that the men as well as other women answered, "Amen."
Nonetheless, certain customs of the daily service began to grate on me. For example, in Shacharit, our congregation has the shaliach tzibbur recite the Birchot HaShachar (morning blessings) out loud, to which the congregation answers "Amen." At the point where he recites the blessing for "God having not created me a woman," the women on the other side of the mechitza (divider) are supposed to say silently to themselves the blessing for "God creating me according to His will." I have learned and fully understand why that blessing is there, that it refers to the fact that according to tradition men are obligated to do more mitzvot than women are and for that they are thankful. But the truth is, despite understanding where the blessing comes from, it is insulting to hear a hearty refrain of "Amen" to the line praising God for not making one a woman, day in and day out. In a religion where it is customary to cover the challah bread at a Friday night Shabbat meal during Kiddush so as not to embarrass or make the challah feel jealous while the wine is being blessed first, I couldn't help but wonder how a community could not devise a method where the man leading the service would take note before he starts if there is a woman present, and if so, he could say this blessing silently to himself. If we demonstrate compassion for an inanimate object like a loaf of bread, why can't we show more sensitivity toward women choosing to pray with a daily minyan?
I occasionally encountered problems saying Kaddish when I traveled to a different minyan. One time in Florida, I davened at a minyan set up for Yeshiva boys, and I was the only mourner. Midway through my first Kaddish, I realized no one was saying "Amen" to my Kaddish. By the time I finished my second Kaddish, I turned to the men on the other side of the mechitza and said out loud, "Great, not one of you is going to say amen to my Kaddish?" They would not. Although I felt grateful that they didn't try to drown me out (as happened to me once in a Haredi synagogue in upstate New York), I felt shocked and angry that high school age yeshiva boys couldn't display enough kavod ha-briyot, basic human respect, to muster an "amen" to my Kaddish. After all, what could be so wrong about uttering the word "amen" when a fellow Jew praises God? The friend I was visiting contacted the principal of the yeshiva, who promised to give them a talk the following day on the laws of answering a person's Kaddish. I hope they learned a life lesson!
Between the Haves and the Have-Nots, Snobbery Is a Two-Way Street
I prided myself on living modestly—even seeing it as a Jewish virtue. Then I confronted my envy of those who were better off.

Cansano rises in a territory bordering on the National Park of Maiella between Sulmona and Campo di Giove.
It is a mountain loclity, hidden among a rough landscape over which the imposing Majella hangs. the green colours of the spring, the blue of the summer sky, the warm colours of the autumn and the white of the winter make the landscape unique and fascinating, overlooked by the wonderful, incontaminated nature.
Cansano arises from the old, fortified village which has marked the urban planning of the town through its medieval architecture.
While going towards the historical centre of the town, passing through the sixteenth-century gate "Porta da Capo" also known as "Arche de Buseche", time stops and the eyes stand staring at the lanes, crossroads and peculiar corners.
While going down the stairway leading to the gate "Porta da Sotto" called "Portajova", reality, memories and imagination bring us back to the lifestyle which is now far from these places; as a matter of fact, once the small square is reached, silence is broken only by the water springing out of the fountain called "de la Mandra" and by the fountain of "Undenare" discrict, a little farther.
Recent archaeological excavations in "Tavuto" - Polmare", place have brought to light a templar area of remarkable interest.

Canadian Projects: Deer Culling
In 2009 animal protectionists in Canada were successful in preventing a planned extension of the legal hunt for white-tailed deer in the eastern townships of Ontario. Deer thrive in the province, south of the boreal forest, and benefit from the mosaic of farmland and woodlots that covers so much of the southern third of Ontario.
But the main challenge to Born Free USA's Canadian office is the continued drive to cull wildlife, particularly but not exclusively focusing on Ontario. We work to protect many species, including the iconic white-tailed deer.
There is irony in the fact that by 2010 a distinct decline in deer was reported, while earlier there were "too many" deer. Of course the decline (if real) now is being blamed on "too many" coyotes — thus we are also fighting continued lobby efforts to cull coyotes. It makes no sense, but culling is not based on logic or understanding.
We have been successful, to date, in preventing a proposed bow-and-arrow cull of deer in Sifton Bog, near London, Ontario. There the "experts" warned of "too many" deer, claiming they were trapped in Sifton Bog, an ecological gem of 50 hectares (about 125 acres) surrounded by urban sprawl. We argued that the deer would come and go in accordance to food availability, and that at any rate the "ecological integrity" of the bog — an ice age remnant of environmental value and interest — was severely compromised by human-caused degradation and the presence of non-native plant species, most particularly buckthorn. Buckthorn is a small, thorny Eurasian tree that out-competes many native trees, and spreads very quickly. It is ubiquitous in much of Sifton Bog. It is not used by many wildlife species.
As to our claim that the deer were not permanent, the following year it was reported that there were only four deer in the bog, down from the high of 52 once reported, but still one deer more than the three that the Ontario government — without any studies to show why — claims is the "correct" number of deer for the bog.
Other concerns included the threat of Lyme disease, carried by ticks that also frequent both meadow voles (also known as field mice) and white-tailed deer, but which has not been found in the area. We discovered that while proponents of the cull claimed that there were more deer hit by cars near the bog than elsewhere, police reports showed the opposite. Because suburban houses are pressed so closely to the edge of the bog, there were complaints of deer damaging private property, but of course no suggestion that deer-proof fencing be installed where that was a concern.
But the issue is far greater than Sifton Bog, and calls for deer culling abound elsewhere. We are also fighting to at least prevent culling of deer on High Bluff Island, Presqu'ile Provincial Park, where we are also in a battle to stop the culling of double-crested cormorants who nest on the island. The deer are intermittent visitors to the island. Unfortunately, culling continues, sporadically, on the mainland. And in 2010 we started to work against a cull of deer in Hamilton, Ontario.

Lady Gaga bitten by slow loris
Girl Under You
Lady Gaga was bitten by a slow loris while shooting the video for her new single 'G.U.Y. (Girl Under You)'.
Lady Gaga was bitten by a slow loris on the set of her new music video.
The eccentric singer was filming the clip for 'G.U.Y. (Girl Under You)' in California when the cute creature - a small primate from Asia, which is an endangered species - sunk its teeth into her.
A source told the New York Post Newspaper: ''The slow loris is the cutest creature on the planet, and Lady Gaga wanted to use it in one scene, but it nipped her. They put it back in its box and took it away in disgrace.''
Gaga, 27, was unhurt, with the source saying ''she just laughed about it,'' but had a lucky escape, as the slow loris is the only venomous primate and wild ones can inflict a flesh-rotting poison deadly to humans.
The animal trainer also brought a baby kangaroo and an exotic goat to the set, but none were eventually used, after a California State Parks Department vetoed the idea.
The video was shot at Heart Castle, the residence built by eccentric former publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst in1919.
Gaga donated $250,000 to the Hearst Castle Preservation Foundation after completing the shoot to thank them for letting her use it.

Product Description
New for 2014! Your opponents are in for a SHOK when they see what this new Miken senior league bat can do! The RZR SHOK hits the field a year after the original RZRs drew rave reviews from parents, coaches, and players alike. This one-piece alloy bat will certainly exceed your expectations. Made entirely from Miken's ZTi950 Alloy, the RZR SHOK gives players awesome performance and durability. ZTi950 Alloy is different from most alloys due to Miken's extrusion process that allows for the thinnest walls around the sweet spot. This creates a HUGE sweet spot area with stunning responsiveness! Miken has also put a big emphasis on lowering the M.O.I. of their bats this year. The RZR SHOK follows suit and gives players a distinct advantage by helping to increase swing speeds across the board. The RZR SHOK also features a balanced swing weight so that players have better control over the bat and are able to place the sweet spot right on the ball as it's coming though. This extra swing speed and control will undoubtedly result in more power and better distance. Miken: Don't Play the Game, Dominate It! The RZR SHOK features the USSSA 1.15 BPF Stamp. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!
