Ten Second Review
The Dacia Logan MCV is an estate car that offers an affordable option for those who thought they could only buy used. It's not the last word in sophistication, as you might expect at this price point, but it's probably a good deal more refined than you expect. On the basis of metal for your money, this revised version is extremely hard to beat.
Sometimes simple is best. Granted, there are times when we want a bit of excess and over-engineering in our lives but when it comes to family transport, it's easy to really blow the budget on something you don't really need. It's what manufacturers of premium-badged cars have counted on for years. At the other end of the spectrum is Dacia. It takes tried and tested Renault engineering and recycles it into new cars hailing from Romania. This means very little research and development outlay, modest labour costs and minimal tooling costs. The result is inexpensive but rugged cars that work very well for cash-strapped family buyers. The Duster budget SUV and Sandero supermini have established a beach head for the brand in this country and the Logan MCV estate has built on that. MCV? Dacia claim it means Max Capacity Vehicle but it's an estate to you and me and a handily-sized one at that. This revised version gets a more efficient Blue dCi diesel engine and the option of a rugged-looking 'Stepway' trim level.
Driving Experience
The Logan is the car that might well have first introduced British buyers to the Dacia brand, especially if they've travelled to France where the first generation Logan was a big hit. We never got that car in the UK and the second generation Logan took a different tack to the original, making the Sandero in effect the hatch version. That's why the Logan MCV gets much the same engine selection as the Sandero. That means a neat 900cc three-cylinder TCe 90 petrol engine as the main attraction. This is an engine that's great in a Clio and powers the smaller Sandero adequately, with great fuel economy and a decent turn of speed. It's a unit that needs to be worked as it makes peak power at 5,250rpm, although there's 135Nm of torque from just 1,650rpm. For those on tighter budgets there's an 'Sce 75' 75hp petrol powerplant at the foot of the range. There's also a 1.5-litre 95hp 'Blue dCi 95' diesel. The Logan MCV rides on a version of the Nissan B0 platform that underpins the Note and the LEAF and is built tough to appeal to world markets. Electronic stability control (ESC) is fitted as standard, compliant with European regulations. It ensures vehicle stability under difficult conditions such as obstacle avoidance, loss of grip when cornering, and slippery road surfaces. ABS (anti-lock brake system) is enhanced by Emergency Brake Assist (EBA), which adjusts the hydraulic system automatically to apply maximum brake pressure from the onset of braking through to the trigger point at which ABS switches in.
Design and Build
The Logan MCV is a fairly practical-looking thing that has one of the best carrying capacities in its class. Take something like a Skoda Fabia estate as a competitor. That fronts up with 480-litres of boot space with the rear seats in place and 1,485-litres of total capacity when they're folded. The Logan MCV is notably bigger, with 573-litres in the luggage bay and up to 1,518-total capacity. Look at those figures and you might assume that with these broadly similarly sized cars, the Skoda maybe compensates by offering more rear seat space than the Dacia. But get into the back of the Logan MCV and it feels anything but pinched. This current model gets a smart front end design showcasing Dacia's distinctive lighting signature flanking a honeycombed grille. Go for the 'Stepway' version and you get flared wheelarches, roof rails and a higher 174mm ground clearance. Whatever Logan MCV model you choose, you'll find a smarter interior than you might expect, with satin-effect chrome finishing to lift the dashboard, a smart steering wheel and some soft-touch surfaces on upper-spec variants. As for practicality, well the interior arrangement is clever, offering no less than 16-litres of handy, accessible stowage features, such as front and rear door bins, cubbies and a storage tray on top of the dashboard. The luggage compartment cover (available on some versions) has a rigid upper section with additional interior stowage capability. The easy-to-use 2/3-1/3 split/folding rear bench, standard on all variants, makes for maximum versatility.
Market and Model
As usual with Dacia products, the Logan MCV has been priced to offer outstanding value for money. Prices start at around £8,500 and range up to around £15,000, There's a choice of various trim levels, a standard model with 'Access', 'Essential' and 'Comfort' trim. Or an SUV-inspired 'Stepway' variant offered in either 'Comfort' or 'Techroad' forms. There's a choice of three engines - the SCe 75 and TCe 90 petrol units and a 1.5-litre Blue dCi 95hp diesel. 'Stepway' buyers are limited to the top two units. Most variants get a DAB radio and you no longer have to stretch right top the top of the range for air conditioning - it's now standard from the 'Essential' level upwards. If you want the rugged 'Stepway' bodystyle, you'll be paying from around £12,500. One of the more interesting features available on the Logan MCV is 'Media Nav'. Available on upper spec versions, this is a fully-integrated multimedia system with a large 7" touchscreen running a highly intuitive homepage menu for trouble-free navigation across the system's many useful functions, which include Bluetooth technology and satnav with 2D and 3D (Birdview) display. Personal devices can be easily connected to a dashboard USB or jack connector. Another clever touch on plusher models is 'DaciaPlug&Radio', also a straightforward and highly efficient multimedia solution, with a dashboard-mounted screen showing three lines of information. This comprises radio, MP3-compatible CD player, Bluetooth technology and dashboard-mounted USB and jack connectors. Then there's cruise control with speed limiter on some versions, with steering-wheel control for both functions, and speed setting. Rear parking sensors are also offered with sensors in the rear bumper to warn the driver when nearing an obstacle. Power steering is standard on all versions.
Cost of Ownership
Dacia is a brand on the up and as more and more new buyers sign up, it's tempting to assume that there will be a big queue of used buyers also looking for a piece of the action, but there's a subtly different reason for choosing a used marque and I don't think the Logan MCV will be quite as depreciation-resistant as some new owners hope. Still, the low asking prices mean that the edge is taken off the overall cost of ownership and it's hard to argue with some of the other running costs. The TCe 90 900cc petrol engine is respectably quick but it'll still return reasonable fuel economy. Dacia quotes a figure of up to 53.3mpg on the WLTP combined cycle and emissions of up to 121g/km for the standard version. Go diesel and in the standard model, you're looking at up to 61.4mpg and up to 97g/km. For the base SCe 75 petrol unit, it's up to 45.6mpg and up to 117g/km. All figures given are WLTP-collated, converted to NEDC2. All new Logans come with a 3 year/60,000 mile warranty (whichever is reached sooner). Rather than forcing buyers to pay a premium for a longer warranty they might not want, there's the option to extend their warranty should they wish. That's something that could well help shore up used values.

Halloween's over and done with, the cold November rain is here, and the mercury is dipping. But the gadget ninjas at Tokyo's Thanko do not rest.
They've been preparing for winter, when millions of Japanese face less-than-cozy conditions at home and in the office. Central heating doesn't really exist in Japan, so people use everything from kerosene heaters to blankets to keep warm.
Add to that Thanko's USB Heated Futon Mouse pad.
This cute twist on traditional futon floor bedding, which is, of course, very different from the Western concept of a couch futon, comes in three parts: a mouse-pad mattress, a heated quilt, and a wrist pillow.
It can thus double as a bed for your Steve Jobs doll, should you have one.
The quilt contains a flat heating element that warms to a piping hot 122 degrees F (50 C), enough to keep your mitt toasty in the draftiest of workplaces.
Thanko is selling the futon mouse-pad set for 1,980 yen ($24.60).
Never content with devising just one ridiculous USB solution to a problem, the Thanko ninjas have also come up with a mouse that heats to 113 degrees F (45 C), as well as furry foot warmers, both for less than $25.
Or you could just pick up some decent socks and fingerless gloves.

We've said before that the MINI Countryman is a strange offering from a nameplate that gets its mojo from smallness. But we understand the company's desire to attract customers who can't quite give up the idea of owning a minivan.
It's just a bit of a bummer to see Fiat doing the same thing with its 2013 500L, which is being introduced today at the L.A. Auto Show.
Basically, the Fiat 500L is Fiat's version of the Countryman. It's longer, slightly taller, has more doors, and is utterly unlike in spirit than its sweet, sleek base version, the plain jane 500. Add to that the car's strange double A-pillar setup, and you have a car that seems to do a pretty good job of exploiting the 500's styling success for something only loosely related.
For those customers who want a station wagon with hints of 500 in it, the 500L comes in four oddly-named trim levels: Pop, Easy, Trekking and Lounge. Sounds like a collection of satellite radio stations that specialize in Kenny G and the Captain & Tennille.
At least it has Abarth power. Fiat will offer the 500L with its turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine, which sends 160 hp and 184 lbs-ft of torque to the front wheels. The standard transmission offering is a six-speed manual, but six-speed dual clutch automatics are available on the Easy and Trekking, and standard on the Lounge. The cars will be offered with 16-inch wheels, Chrysler's UConnect gadget platform, and the usual array of cloth and leather seats.
In reality, the 500L is less a minivan than it is a standard small European liftback/crossover. But until Fiat adds an all wheel drive option, it'll be a tough sell against similar models that do offer all wheel drive. Well, unless someone who wants a wagon just really likes the Fiat look.

Complete Story
The Power of the Bundle
By: Paul Rodriquez, Cable Tech Talk
NCTA has released a new white paper prepared by Microeconomic Consulting & Research Associates, Inc. (MiCRA). The report is entitled Benefits to Consumers from the Transformation of the Cable Industry. In part it is about the cable industry's transformation from a simple analog video provider to a provider of multiple services over an advanced digital communications platform. But more simply, it's about the benefits to the consumer of cable's Triple Play of voice, video and data.
Here's a typical data point from the report, that shows how far we've come over the past decade.
A typical cable subscriber in 1998 paid $27.00 ($37.00 in 2008 dollars) for a few dozen television channels (composed primarily of local broadcast television, local public, educational and governmental ("PEG") channels, superstations, and a handful of cable networks). In 2008, this same subscriber could purchase a suite of services, for approximately $100 per month, which included digital voice service, high-speed data service, and digital video service offering hundreds of channels of increasingly popular cable network programming, high-definition video quality, and large libraries of on-demand programs.
A look back to the 90s, before our fiber buildout, shows how powerful the impact has been of cable's improved hybrid fiber-coax architecture. Back in '98, only a small fraction of subscribers were taking services like digital video, phone and high-speed data access. For example, there were 1.4 million digital subs in '98 (according to SNL Kagan) and there were 40.4 million in 2008.
In analyzing the power of bundling, the report says:
The marginal cost of providing an additional customer with any of the three services (voice, data, or video) is low because of the large economies of scale in deploying a wireline (or fiber-based) network. Moreover, once a customer has subscribed to one service, the marginal cost of providing that customer with a second and third service is even lower.
In addition, these savings can be passed on; according to the report, "[b]undled services are priced between $5.00 and $50.00 lower than the sum of the prices of the components." MiCRA estimates that that cable's investments - $129 billion spent in upgrades between 1999 and 2008 - have resulted in about $35 billion in annual consumer benefits. The study shows that the benefits from offering new services and new service bundles are shared across all demographic groups, including lower-income households.

LEWISTON, Idaho - (Box Score) Brandon Bargas tossed a four-hitter and struck out 18, while Colin Campbell's RBI single scored the eventual game-winning run in the bottom of the eighth inning to help ninth seed Rogers State (Okla.) upset top seed LSU Shreveport (La.) 2-1 in the second round of the Avista-NAIA World Series at Harris Field on Saturday night.
Rogers State, 47-14, advanced to play No. 4 seed Tennessee-Wesleyan in the winner's bracket on Monday at 3 p.m. LSU Shreveport, 51-5 and the top-ranked team in the NAIA, falls into loser's bracket play and will meet sixth-seed and host Lewis-Clark State at noon on Monday.
Bargas, a 5-foot-9 junior left-hander from Owasso, Okla., fell one strikeout short of tying a Series record of 19 strikeouts in a nine-inning game, set by Larry Crayton of East Carolina in 1961 and tied a year later by Mark Dilley of Winona State (Minn.). His strikeout total, however, smashed the previous Rogers State program record of 11.
Bargas and LSU Shreveport's Jared Moretensen were locked in pitcher's duel throughout the contest before the Rogers State bats came to life. Moretensen had a two-hitter entering the seventh, but Rogers State collected two hits and tied the game with a run, and then followed up with four hits in the eighth inning, including Campbell's key RBI single.
Bargas improved to 7-3 overall. He allowed one walk and the lone run he gave up was a third-inning solo home run by LSU Shreveport's Brandon Cooksey.
Mortensen allowed the eight hits and two runs in 7.1 innings. He struck out five and walked one to fall to 11-2 on the season.
Rogers State tied the game in the seventh, although Mortensen retired the first two hitters in the inning. Cody Campbell started the rally with a walk and went to second on a single by Randy Ramirez. Cade McKewon followed with an RBI single to left field.
In the eighth, Bargas appeared to help himself with a double but Eric Barker followed with a ground ball to short that hit Bargas for an automatic out and a single for Baker. Hector Rivera followed with a single to move Baker to second and Campbell followed with his RBI single to left. Campbell was the only player in the game to collect two hits.

Who Is Jesus Christ-Part 1
December 29
Who is Jesus Christ? Jesus came from the throne of His Father in heaven to the womb of a virgin girl. He became the Son of Man, that we might become the sons of God. He was born in a supernatural way, lived in poverty, and was reared in obscurity. He had neither wealth nor influence, yet the wisdom of men has never matched His wisdom. Never has a man spoken like this Man.
His family was poor and humble. At His birth, he alarmed King Herod. As a boy, He stunned theologians with His knowledge and wisdom, for He was taught of God. In manhood, He ruled the elements and quieted the sea. He healed the multitudes without medicine. He fed thousands from a boy's lunch. He raised three people from the dead.
Demons obeyed Him. He never wrote a book, yet all the libraries in the world could not contain all the books that have been written about Him. He never wrote a song, yet He has been the theme of more songs than all song writers combined. He never founded a college, yet all colleges together cannot boast of as many students as He has. He never marshaled an army, yet no leader ever had more volunteers.
Great men have come and gone yet He lives on. Herod could not kill Him. Satan could not tempt Him to sin. Death could not destroy Him. The grave could not hold Him. He was rich, yet for our sakes He became poor. He slept in another's manger; He rode on another's donkey; He was buried in another's grave. He conquered death and rose on the third day, as He said He would. He ascended to Heaven and is now at the right hand of our Father in Heaven.
One day, He will return and take us to be with Him in Heaven forever.
