Amethyst, the gemstone believed by ancient Greeks and Romans to ward off the intoxicating powers of Bacchus, also is said to keep the wearer clear-headed and quick-witted. Throughout history, the gemstone has been associated with many myths, legends, religions, and numerous cultures. English regalia were even decorated with amethysts during the Middle Ages to symbolize royalty. It has been associated with many myths, legends, religions, and numerous cultures. Amethyst is purple quartz, a beautiful blend of violet and red that can found in every corner of the earth. Historically, the finest amethyst were found in Russia and were featured in much royal European jewelry. Today, while Brazil is the primary source of this gemstone, fine material can be found elsewhere, especially in Zambia.

text: I have for years stuck with manual focus prime lenses; they are small, lightweight, and optically fast. Typically Ive been shooting with lenses at f2 or better while Nikons AF range has largely been designed at f2.8 maximum aperture. I just bought a D2x and wanted to see what a modern lens would do for me, what 20+ years of technology really gives us. So I invested in a Nikkor 105mm AF-S IF-ED G VR N Micro. Much bulkier than my AI-S version, but it sits well on the large D2x body. Focus is fast, with minimum hunting. VR works really well. Results are crackingly sharp. A real wrench for me moving from manual focus, but I dont regret it. Pros: Fast optically and mechanically, very sharp. Cons: Bulky for a smaller camera, gelded, and now I want to spend thousands on more of Nikons modern range of lenses.

Review: Savoir No. 2 Bed - "The Savoy"
A Year in Bed
Bed: Savoir No. 2 with Horsehair Topper
Manufacturer: Savoir Beds
Retail Price: $15,550 (queen)
May was a huge step up for us; we tried our second extreme luxury bed, the Savoir No. 2, also known as The Savoy. Completely handmade in England for each customer, Sara Kate and I slept on a medium tension model that was sprung equally for both of us (we were both invited to come try a floor model months ahead of time). Our experience? We both really liked the bed, but had different reactions to how lumpy the bed was at first (it settled a lot over the course of the month.) We agreed on one thing: this bed REALLY moves.
Savoir is a UK based company that started up in 1905 by making beds for the Savoy Hotel in London after the owner declared he wanted the best beds in town for his hotel. Prior to 1997, you could only buy these beds through the hotel, but since then the company split off and has a large presence in Europe. They only opened a US showroom, in New York City, last year.
Check out Joyce Wadler's review of the Savoir $50k bed (she only spent one night on it) here (NYTimes).
In the interest of full disclosure, the delivery of these beds is a big part of the experience, and we got the full treatment. Savoir not only delivered the bed, but threw in luxury bedding and a bottle of champagne (they said customers often buy new bedding with their beds). When we came home that night it made quite an impression. Personal, white glove delivery is standard. Not sure about the champagne. This is what we tried out:
• Sferra Giza Sateen Bedding
• Hefel Pure Silk Comforter
• Savoir Back-Sleeper Pillows
While all of this added to the experience, we quickly swapped out the sateen for our own linen sheets. They were just too slippery.
It's worth adding, however, that making a big deal out of this point of contact made a distinct impression. Not only is bed delivery a very sensitive event, it's also a huge marketing opportunity and all of the attention this bed comes with definitely adds to the personal experience.
Sleep Experience
• Excellent (but not at first)
You have to get used to this bed. For a $15k bed, we were both amazed at what a lumpy first impression it made. The horsehair topper settled big-time over our thirty days. Soft, breathable and plush with many layers of natural material, I loved falling into it at night, but it did take getting used to. Sara found the way the horsehair topper "settled" uncomfortable as it created a ridge between us at first and made her feel as if she were rolling towards the edge. This went away by the end of the month.
That said, we both slept very well after the first week, my occasional morning back pains disappeared and our body temperatures were never too hot or too cold. The sleep is very soft and deep, which I prefer, but Sara is more of a firm surface aficionado. This is important to know when choosing a bed, and the Savoir can be built for different firmnesses within the same bed.
• Amazing
The Savoir is a "bespoke" handmade bed, which means that it is built to your specifications in their factory in London. Totally traditional in build, with layers of natural materials on top of hand tied springs, this bed will rock your world if your eco-minded. If you just like well made things, you'll appreciate all the care that goes into one of these things.
From the Savoir website:
The difference between a Savoir Bed and any other will become apparent over many years of comfort. The fact that 60 hours of craftsmanship goes into one of our king size beds allows us to make best use of the finest materials. Screwing a frame together takes longer than using a pneumatic staple gun, but the time taken is reflective in their respective lives.
The materials? FSC certified knot-free pine and beech, lambswool, cotton, horsehair and steel springs. I took a lot of pics of the bed being set-up as the thing looks as good without bedding as it does dressed.
• Aspirational
This bed is a lot of money, but if actually can afford to buy one, you're likely not to feel that it's overpriced. While I'm sure there's a healthy markup in there, this is a lot of bed and you DO feel like you're lying on something that's going to get better and dearer with time. It had a totally different presence in our bedroom than most of the other beds - like a big, solid anchor in our home.
If you're big into having a great bed, really crave natural materials, this type of soft, deep sleep and don't need to buy a car or send a kid to college this year, this could be a great choice.
Can you get a Savoir for less? Yes, Savoir makes two other models that are lower in price (often bought for guest rooms!), which will allow you to dip your toes in these waters, but they're still going to run you a lot more than the typical $1-2k beds that we see most often.
Do you sleep on a Savoir bed? If yes, please let me know in the comments how it's going for you.

Year In Bed
53 Comments
What, precisely, is the point of doing a post on a bed that less than 1% of your readers can possibly afford?
negative much? although i can't afford this mattress, i can still appreciate a review on it. i've never heard of this company, but was intrigued to learnt they make this mattress by hand. it's also a point of comparison to see if the cost actually matches the comfort.
learn* (damn)
I'm actually gonna have to go with Shanalulu on this -- I love AT, and still read it daily...but the price-point of many of the items featured on here (as well as the house tours) are crazy. I understand the inevitable evolution of the website...but the earlier years of AT had ATTAINABLE inspiration...not a mattress that costs 50% of some people's yearly salaries.
"This bed is a lot of money, but if actually can afford to buy one, you're likely not to feel that it's overpriced." What? Who? Ridiculous on so many levels I'm stopping here....
don't listen to the naysayers! i LOVE this series! plenty of things on AT are out of my price range. that just encourages me to get more creative with things that are *in* my price range. plus, i'll know where to spend my money when i hit the lottery!
I have a non mattress, or price question. Can you tell me where your bedframe & headboard came from? Looking for something very minimal space wise for a tiny bedroom. thanks!
AT- From now on please only focus posts on apartments that cost less than $600/mo. to rent since many of us cannot afford to live in more expensive, fancy designer homes! No more talk of Eames either, we want to know what Wal Mart has to offer.
The problem with paying ridiculous $$ for luxury items is that it makes you happy for about a month, and then you begin to develop a lusty hunger for some other overpriced item. I think it's fair to say that you can find a bed just as comfortable for a wee fraction of the price.
Stuff--even puffy, luxurious, white-glove-delivered stuff--won't make you happy. Go take a walk in the woods and breathe deeply.
Lovely sheets and how they seem to cascade of the bed.
Personally I have the IKEA Sultan HJelmas, which is a much softer version of the one you revieved before. Which is actually really comfortable. Maybe you should try that one too.
@Angie_marie -HaHaHaHa!!!
I'm curious - where is the graveyard for a $15k bed that was only slept on for 30 days? Where is it going now?
Maxwell! The timing of this post is so ironic! The Savoir No.2 is my dream bed. THE bed. THE one.
However, we can't afford it -- just reached that conclusion this weekend. We are instead ordering a VI-Spring Classic Superb, which is mostly horsehair with a little lambswool. It's not available in their export line, only in the UK.
The topper at Savoir is a recent addition -- it only appeared a year or so ago, probably to compete with the feeling of Hastens beds. So for over a hundred years, the Savoir No.2 has been used without a topper, so I'm with Sarah on this -- it's unnecessary.
As it happens, I was just reading this yesterday about the topper:
" Topper pads are a response by traditional bed makers such as Savoir to create a natural version of the soft comfort layer on top of the mattress that memory foam provides, at the same time raising the feet slightly to improve the circulation."
(interestingly, the person who sold us our mattresses and bed is the salesperson in the article)
I'm green with envy, and wish, wish we could afford a Savoir No. 2.
(when you get old and achy and sleep-deprived, like my husband and me, you put a premium on a good night's sleep. For the past 4 years I have slept on a government-issue mattress that was little better than a plank of plywood. It has destroyed my shoulders and made my life miserable.)
Actually, I'm curious about where all of these mattresses have gone considering they are used and can't be resold. Have they been thrown out? While I've found this series very helpful because I, too, need a new mattress, it seems really wasteful if indeed they're just thrown out after you use them. I hope that you've at least been able to donate them to someone in need. Apologies if this is something that was addressed in an earlier post.
Very interesting comments on all sides, as an interior designer I have to say that I appreciate the variety on AT. It isn't simply looking to rip off designer pieces but is willin to give them the time of day and realizes that some of it's readers do want to read about the finer things in life. It gives the website a fresh & open minded feeling...one that keeps me reading!
@angie_marie - You must be living in the prairies of Nebraska for a decent-sized apartment or house that only costs $600/month! It would be literally impossible to have an OK apartment in a safe neighborhood in ANY major city for that price.
The whole point of AT is to either be inspired by what others can do OR live vicariously. Chill out, people. Stop being so sensitive about what you can and can't afford.
@Maxwell - Thanks for sharing this! Never heard of this company, nor could I ever afford to buy this. But it sure is pretty to look at!
at. & coookie: This was addressed in the original write-up.
I agree with stacylynnJ. The blog is to inspire! If all you do is look at Walmart, than you will never know when you have stumbled across an amazing piece in a second hand shop.
Also, buying high end goods, does actually makes some people happy. I have a few "expensive" pieces, and I really do love them. It does not make me crave more, and yes I still dumpster dive,shop at Goodwill, and enjoy a good old fashioned yard sale.
"The problem with paying ridiculous $$ for luxury items is that it makes you happy for about a month, and then you begin to develop a lusty hunger for some other overpriced item"
@ solop - Paying a ton of money for a luxury item might make some people happy (or what they think is happy) for a very long time.
Who knows?...
And if it will make you happy to go into the woods and breathe deeply, that's great. I'm glad you have found that source of happiness.
To each his/her own.
(fyi, breathing deeply in the woods has made me very happy on many occasions - lovely suggestion)
no one is saying show us cheap wal-mart items (Angie_marie was clearly being sarcastic)...but there's been a DRASTIC increase in absurdly priced items/homes on AT when originally it was a down-to-earth website with great tips on how to live well in an apartment with creative solutions. Sure, it's outgrown that idea and evolved into more-- which is great. And I understand the need (and desire) to show high-end items. but AT seems to be tipping the scales in favor of expensive Eames items, outrageous 1st dibs finds, and $15,000 mattresses, as opposed to more reasonable items the average reader can relate to. Do I get inspiration from these items too? -- yup, i do. But there seems to be more UNattainable inspiration than attainable inspiration on this website now. And I'm not sure how that is "therapeutic" to my apartment :)
just sayin.
I can't find this information in the original write up - if you are referring to Year In Bed: A Modest Proposal. I don't see disposal information there, but maybe I am missing it?
I love reading about this mattress ... I don't shop at Walmart for personal philosophical reasons, but I love Ikea and I can afford to shop there. But my current price range doesn't stop me from dreaming! Besides, even though this mattress is out of my reach TODAY, it might not be out of my reach tomorrow!
@carolaf -- I understand your reasons for not shopping at WalMart, but IKEA is just as bad, only they have better marketing and design.
In November 2009, IKEA, along with Abercrombie & Fitch, Gymboree, Hanes, Kohl's, LL Bean, Pier 1, Propper International, and Walmart, was added to the 2010 Sweatshop Hall of Shame by labour rights group International Labor Rights Forum. The Berne Declaration has slammed them for being one of the largest tax dodgers in the world. IKEA is the world's largest single user of forestry products, getting most of its wood from the former Soviet Union which is rife with illegal logging. Given that they have only 10 forestry inspectors, their forestry inspection is mostly window-dressing for green consumers.
Wow. I didn't think there could be a more-or-less entry-level mattress more expensive than the Hastens! Educational indeed. XD But is this not what the royal family sleeps on?
@angie_marie, thanks for distorting my meaning so you could mock it. My point was that the top 1% has plenty of places to read about Really Expensive Stuff, and I thought AT was geared toward The Rest of Us.
@stacylynnJ: it's not "sensitivity about what [I] can afford," it's "what is the point of showing us stuff that almost none of us will ever be able to afford?" I thought it a valid question, I wasn't interjecting insecurity about my own finances, or whatever.
@MyAliya: thank you. That's what I was getting at. AT has become increasingly aspirational, and, consequently, decreasingly useful/relatable, IMO.
Honestly, this post looks like Maxwell showing us his reaping of the benefits of running a popular blog. Which, you know, fine, I guess, but...meh.
I'm going to chime in as well on the increasingly high price of items, especially many labeled as bargains or reasonably priced, that are being referenced on AT lately. This article was moderately interesting as far learning about construction techniques, but shanalulu, I get how it seems that more and more Maxwell is showing off his luxurious lifestyle and fabulous taste. Anyway the appeal of AT is that you can have wonderful style without spending huge amounts of money, that has changed:(
I agree with shanalulu on this; the price of this bed is so out of reach that the post is of very little use to anyone.
I would never buy anything made with horsehair.
I think we're all in agreement that inspiration CAN be found in high-end items if you pay attention to shape, color, texture, and the other elements of good design -- I shop at overstock, homeGoods, craigslist, target, and discount stores as well and my apt (so I'd like to think) looks MUCH more expensive than it actually is. But I BEG you to tell me what inspiration youve gotten from this $15,000 mattress..
I got a kick out of reading this. I don't live in an apartment, can't afford this bed ever, nor can I afford most of what I see on AT. But I still have fun reading about the stuff, and finding out what makes a quality mattress. Love those white gloves!
why not?
The use of horse hair does not inspire me even if I had the money to spend.
Seems kind of kooky to bash a post about a pricey bed. I'll never own alot of expensive things and not that I'd want them anyways but I sure enjoy the art that goes into the making of them.
I'm not bashing the post. I enjoy the art that goes into well-made items of any price...I just feel that AT is catering getting out of balance with the high-end items.
And Hideaway -- you just proved my point :) a big splurge on a bed for most readers in a few thousand, not TENS of thousands of dollars. Most readers can't relate to this item, and probably will never own/afford it.
It's just my humble opinion. Take an HONEST look at posts from the earlier years of AT compared to now and you'll realize what I'm claiming is pretty undeniable.
Why is everyone so quick to assume that most AT readers make so little money? Over 5 million people read this blog, I'm sure PLENTY of readers can afford this mattress. Stop whining and skip posts about high-end merchandise if they bother you that much. Some of us are interested.
Also... many, many residential interior designers read this blog and can benefit from information like this for their clients (and just personal knowledge). I doubt that company would loan Maxwell such an expensive mattress if they didn't think it was going to reach an appropriate audience. Just look at all the high-end homes we see through house tours... those people are AT readers, too.
yes, Manditra, "Just look at all the high-end homes we see through house tours" on a website called APARTMENT therapy... :)
tsd - because of the means used to get the horsehair.
I agree that some of the items on AT are extremely pricey. I enjoy learning about the construction items that are of the highest quality so I can be educated on what constitutes 'quality'.
I don't understand why there are houses on an apartment blog.
the construction OF* items
... you know, with all this sort of grumbling, maybe it's time for AT to come up with another site? One that's more explicitly budget. Eco-friendly items got shunted into their own site, too, and I know a lot of ppl care in general for that sort of thing. The other alternative is for the grumblers to set up a competing site geared towards those of less means, which would be, frankly, hard.
So, has anyone gotten a reply as to what's happening with all these used mattresses?
@lepidoptery: really, do we need to use negative characterizations like "grumblers?" AT has changed, and is now less useful than it was before. Pardon us for wishing AT wasn't slowly but surely becoming yet another "dream source" source.
Frankly, I would prefer the budget site, but at some point the preponderance of commentors would refuse to accept that AT has changed, probably because the ppl running AT have changed, dilutes whatever remaining usefulness there is in the discussion.
(... and then you have all the posts re:, ahem, unauthorized reproductions, that get derailed by railings against knockoffs from the other end of the spectrum....)
OK, to be more direct about it, I don't think there's any need for me to apologize. I think it's funny that you don't think you are complaining, however legitimate your grievance may be. "Grumbling" is hardly a harsh indictment.
It's kind of funny because I'm sure many people on AT have paid more than this a car or maybe a big vacation. For a mattress, 15k for some reason seems so decadent. But such mattresses probably last longer than cars, and you hopefully spend more of your time in bed than driving! I actually think buying a new car is incredibly decadent, but don't often hear people complaining about that.
Still, "due to a construct in my mind," I would never pay $15k for a car or a mattress. (Vacation, yes!)
I don't think there's anything wrong with featuring expensive items. That's kinda the point of this whole bed-test series. Testing out the luxury/custom/specialty beds.
However, a $15,000 bed cracks me up! That is as much as my car! That is over 50% of one year of my income! Even if I had a billion dollars, I would never spend that much on one mattress.
I'm still humored by the fact that some commentors think the "grumblers" are automatically "poor" or have "low budgets" ...then act as if WE are the problem with AT...when in actuality , apartment therapy seems to have been created for the average -income household but has now morphed into an aspirational "dream-source", $15,000 mattress website that no longer seems to cater as much to regular budgets.
I agree with lepidoptery about creating a sub-division of the site for high-end items. But If anything, the luxury items should be given a new tab, not the original website.
I'm glad I'm not the only one grossed out by horsehair being used! Unless savoy has created an equine version of Locks Of Love, horse hair is essentially leftovers from horse slaughter. The issues I have with horse slaughter are numerous, but the biggest is that it's estimated that 66% of horses stolen are sold to slaughter (in the US, not sure about the UK, but I would suspect it's similar). Which means that each year hundreds of people's PETS are being killed. ...and then apparently Savoy turns them into ridiculously priced mattresses.
There is a lot of mediocrity in the world and it is the place of some people to aspire to it. I believe learning about the quality, craftsmanship and traditional skills of product or service brings hope and joy to the world. There are a lot of people in the world who produce part or all of a product that themselves could not afford. This reality of life that first poster is not taking into account when they aspire to read reviews only middle of the road commercial rubbish. America is currently (not) enjoying the results of such thinking. We will happily buy a car that will last 10 years and drop in value by 80% before becoming useless to us, where a bed like this could last 20-30 years and deliver many years of improved health. I won't even start on the total value of Computers, TV's, VCR's, and other consumables we have to constantly replace and basically provide little or no craftsmanship or industry for skilled people. I personally would pay $20 per week to sleep on this mattress, I would not pay $5 per week to sleep on ikea junk, but some people are happy to. The term "afford" really means "priority"
No one ever answered what happened to the used mattresses.
I just came across this "in-bed" series and am really glad the author is testing beds across a wide range of price points. I have been curious about how well a $10k mattress stands up against a $1200 mattress in a real sleep test. Usually high end reviews only compare against other high end mattresses, so its hard to get helpful perspective when you may have never owned a high end mattress to begin with. I just bought a $3000 mattress because as I've aged I've noticed more body pain upon waking that would linger throughout the day. After experiencing marked improvement after sleeping on a better mattress in a hotel for a few weeks, I figured out that my inexpensive mattress was to blame. These articles have been illuminating and I will save to buy a higher end mattress in the future. My health is important to me and when this $3000 mattress gives out (which it unfortunately will) it will be wonderful to have the option to purchase something great that I can use until I'm in my 60's.

Today's post is a bit of a follow up to my post Selling 77-80 Cata Gear To Scroll Of Resurrection Level 80s. I've been asked many times for shopping lists/item lists for the 77-80 Cataclysm Items I flip. The truth is, due to the number of items involved, it is easier to tell people which items to avoid rather than which to buy. Read on past the jump to learn how to identify the "stinkers".
How to Buy
Before we go over what not to buy, lets get a quick refresher on how to buy them. The easiest way to find these auctions on the auction house is with the Auctionator addon's "Buy" tab. Once on the "Buy" tab enter the first search term below to search for armor and the second term to search for weapons.
Armor/77/80/i272 Weapon/77/80/i272
Once the search is finished press the "Lowest Price" column to sort items so the cheapest items are on top. Now we are ready cull through these items for the profitable ones.
You can also add these to a Auctionator Shopping lists. (If you'd like to learn more about Auctionator shopping lists check out our post Auction House Basics: Auctionator Shopping Lists.)
The 5 Things What To Avoid
When searching through you search there are 5 major categories of items that I avoid like the plague.
(Three of the items in the list are suffixes to avoid which means look for the words that come after the item name. Example: "Moonbrook Crystal of the Beast", the "...of the Beast" is the part to look for.)
- "...of the Beast" - These items have not major stat (Agility, Strength or Int).Instead they have Crit Hit and Stam. Not having a major stat is a major no-no.
- "...of the Whale" - These items have only Spirit and Stam. No one wants that. No one. Avoid at all costs.
- Plate items or shields that are "...of the Tiger" - This gear has Agility and Stam. No plate-wearing class needs Agility. None. Stay away.
- Jasper Rings - These items are often crafted by Jewelcrafters as part of their shuffling routine and therefore at risk of large numbers of undercuts. I don't try to flip them.
- Alicite Pendants - These necklaces are also crafted by Jewelcrafters as part of the shuffle and therefore very prone to being flooded and undercut.
Here is the list showing the items I'd avoid in this particular search
The more you search the better you get good at spotting the bad items. You want your items to sell. By avoiding these type of anomalous items you are more likely to pick winners.
To recap, I sell all 77-80 Cataclysm (above iLevel 272) items except the ones that match the criteria listed above. I've had great success in this market and think is is a market everyone should look into.
A Note On Pricing
I just wanted to add a note on item pricing. I've found a good pricing scheme for these items on my server. You may be able to adjust these prices up or down based on your own server.
I sell all armor pieces for 254g. Weapons I sell for around 225g for wands and off-hands, 345g for 1-handed and 445g for 2-handed weapons.
I like the prices above because they are low enough to not draw heavy competition but high enough to still make a nice profit.
When purchasing these items I'll pay up to 65g per piece for armor and 100g for weapons.

On July 6, 1885, Louis Pasteur was the first person to treat a patient bitten by a rabid animal by injecting extracts of virulent marrow in order to trigger the immune response: vaccination was born.
Over the years, the Institut Pasteur in Paris has maintained its leading and innovative role in the field of rabies treatment. Today, the reagents produced and marketed by Bio-Rad are the result of Institut Pasteur research and provide a reference for the detection and assaying of rabies antigens and antibodies.
The rabies virus is a highly neurotropic virus that causes encephalitis in mammals and is usually fatal. It is still present in virtually all regions of the world.
Worldwide, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates the number of human deaths to be about 50,000 annually, and over 94% of these deaths are caused by rabid dogs. Efforts to control rabies in dogs include the management of dog populations and vaccination programs.
The World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) is an international organization providing governments with recommendations on vaccination and diagnosis of major animal diseases, especially zoonoses.
Both the OIE and the WHO are the references for rabies control and eradication programs.
As an example, European regulations apply to international movements of domestic carnivores from rabies-infected to rabies-free countries; rabies immunization and titration of neutralizing antibody should be carried out in an approved laboratory on a sample within the periods laid down in national regulations. Domestic carnivores are allowed to travel if their serum contains at least 0.5 IU/ml.
Bio-Rad is contributing to these developments with the production of high-quality rabies reagents.
Platelia Rabies II Kit ad usum veterinarium
The Platelia Rabies II kit ad usum veterinarium uses an ELISA technique intended for the detection and titration of rabies anti-glycoprotein antibodies in animal sera. Antibody titration in animals is used for:
Platelia Rabies II kit ad usum veterinarium is OIE certified for monitoring the immune status of dogs, cats, and foxes.

Top Socially Conscious Songs of the Year
Music has played an integral role in American society especially in African-American culture. In the 1800s, hymns were uses to tell stories of freedom and pain, and during the civil rights movement, music provided a guide map toward equality. Take a look at some powerful song lyrics of 2013 that sparked conversations and made headlines across the nation. — Dominique Zonyéé

It is a rare feat for anyone to score high enough with a short ata bow to place in the top three. Here, the vast majority of those placing and winning have bows of 38 inches of ata or more. My shortest bow is 37 7/8" and my longest is 41 1/2".
To us, instinctively, means use of fingers and no sights. Here again and especially here, the longer ata bow is desired. Short ata bows pinch the fingers way too much.
I've heard bows and archery equipment over there are high priced, but if my conversion is correct, 3000 pounds = $4498.45, I could buy about 5 top end bows over here. Saying "You're getting ripped off" doesn't even begin to tell the story.
Wish you well in your archery events.

SFWeekly's Best of San Francisco 2013: A Comedy Perspective
Every year around this time has a fervor of excitement in the Bay Area comedy community. San Francisco is a crown hub of stand-up, a respected market for art and culture, and a mecca for a certain kind of comedy fan. It's the soup: where the transcendent feed and microcosms emerge and evolve. That being said, it's also a place with little industry, little structure, and massive turnover. Trying to get noticed, trying to become accomplished, is an arduous, lonesome, unappreciated task. That's why, during this time of year, a progress report of sorts really sets the year's tone for a select group of performers.
SFWeekly recently published it's "Best of" collection of articles, and, as always, a motley group of comedians got the nod (and boost) of recognition.

I'm window shopping for the stuff i would like on my Target only bow. I noticed that the serious Target shooters are using those Blade style spring rests. being a Fob shooter it wouldn't work for fobs. it's either I go no fobs on my target bow or try an happy medium and see if a drop away is good enough for target shooting.
If I don't shoot Fobs through my Target bow I am interested in this rest but in silver.
TrophyTaker Spring steel Pro
I've heard good things about the G5 Expert pro rest and i was told it was Fob friendly. Would this work for target?. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Why Cable TV in Howard, CO
We love cable TV. Here are some reasons why. Cable is reliable in bad weather. Between the hundreds of HD channels and all the On Demand content, there is always something to watch. It's easier to install, particularly in homes with more than one television. Several providers offer specials like free equipment and convenient bundles with high-speed Internet and digital cable for a smaller fee each month. Plus cable is:
Cable TV offersmore HD choices
Snow may mess up satellite, but itdoesn't faze cable
Cable can beinstalled virtually anywhere
TV Use in Howard
If you thirst for cable TV knowledge, we can help. CableTV.com has cold-filtered cable data on tap and ready for consumption. Try this (it's on the house): almost everyone, or 97% of Americans, watches television as it is aired and roughly 33% of those TV viewers have at least four televisions in their homes. Upwards of 50% of people also stream video content online. Among those with cable TV, almost three-fourths bundle their service with high-speed Internet. Cable's ubiquitous national presence also helps explain how DVRs account for about 7% of America's total TV viewing.
All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.
Cable Internet in Howard
Cable providers have so much more to offer than TV. That is why so many Howard residents bundle cable services. Cable Internet is faster than most DSL services, providing downstream speeds 25%-100% faster than the national average. People who choose cable bundles also save money, roughly $42 every month they bundle TV and Internet. Both are very good explanations why cable Internet subscribers represent 32% of households, and how broadband penetration in Colorado grew to 72% by 2010. Enter your zip code to find out more about cable Internet, bundles and providers in Howard.

Which Actors Are From Howard, CO
Many people in Howard, CO remember Joey Lawrence's "Blossom" catchphrase "Whoa!" Lawrence got his break into television at age six on "Gimme a Break" in 1983. Nowadays, Lawrence can be seen on the hit ABC Family television show "Melissa and Joey," which you can tune into ABC Family on cable TV to watch. Lawrence, who plays "manny" Joe Longo on "Melissa and Joey," was named one of TV.com's Top 40 Most Popular TV Actors. Other shows Lawrence has been in over the years include "CSI: New York," "Jumping Ship" and "My Fake Fiancé."
Find Cable TV in Howard
Hopefully by now you realize that we know cable like Ross knows bad timing. That's why we can connect you with the right cable service, which isn't as arrogant as it sounds. Local governments restrict cable companies licensing so they usually don't overlap. We will tell you the cable provider for your area - just enter your zip code above.

Bow season ends for me the 31st. After that, it's coyote time until spring turkey starts in April. Got quite a few coyotes to thin out this year, so it'll be a busy time. Somewhere around 6 square miles of land to hunt coyotes on.

Editorial: Penney's part of city's history
"Rumors that JCPenney and Belk Harry are considering leaving Salisbury Mall are 'absolutely' untrue, according to officials at both stores."
Sometimes, rumors aren't untrue. It just takes a while for reality to overtake them — a couple of decades in this case. The quote above is from a Nov. 15, 1993, article in the Salisbury Post, a story the Post was compelled to publish to address fears that the mall was about to lose two major tenants.
Fast-forward to March 2013: After months of speculation, JCPenney announced it is leaving the mall and Salisbury, where it has operated for more than 70 years. As previously announced, Belk will move to the new Wallace Commons shopping center on Klumac Road.
Seven decades is a good run in retail by anyone's standards. When Penney's opened on South Main on Sept. 4, 1941, Pearl Harbor was a few months in the future, and Salisbury's downtown was the place to shop — as was the case for the downtowns of towns and cities across America. Penney's thrived, going through two expansions and renovations at its site in the 300 block of South Main. So did Woolworth's, Belk Harry and Zimmerman's.
Then, in 1986, came a merchandising bombshell: Salisbury was finally getting a mall, and Penney's would be an anchor store (along with Roses and Belk Harry). That announcement, by the way, also followed years of rumors and speculation about the possibility of a major mall coming to Rowan.
Now, JCPenney is shutting stores around the country, including its Wilkesboro location, as it tries to redefine its brand amid declining revenues and changing shopping trends. The Salisbury Mall is going through a major transition as well. After going through bankruptcy, the new owner is struggling to keep remaining shops and attract others, as are scores of other older suburban malls across the nation.
Like Penney's, the mall has seen boom days and bad ones, been a part of a great shift toward the suburbs — and is now contending with yet another shift, as Wallace Commons blossoms on Klumac Road and another development is contemplated for Summit Corporate Center. Just as downtown Salisbury has had to repurpose itself in the wake of big-box migration, the Salisbury Mall will have to reinvent itself, develop a new identity and find new ways to survive.
What's next for the mall? Badcock Furniture is moving in, a positive sign. The sprawling parking lot is also being considered as a temporary site for the farmer's market. Other ideas tossed out: An office complex? A call center? Government office annex? Mixed-use development?
Somewhere out there, the rumors are already swirling.
