Jn4jenny is a treasure trove of saddle wisdom. She gets the job of choosing my next new or custom saddle for me!

Wow, this is some great info.
re: the Pessoa Monoflap - I am also short (but have very long femur) and the knee roll works but the flap is way too long, as in 2 inches longer than my Chiberta 2AA.
Aww, thanks guys. PassionforSaddles, I don't want to derail yellowbritches' thread by talking about myself too much, but the short version is that I'm not a pro saddle fitter--just a gearhead who loves the technical challenge of fitting a moving horse and a particular rider to a saddle. I talk to a lot of saddle fitters, brand reps, trade show vendors, attend as many saddle fitting appointments as I can, etc. The more I learn, the more people are willing to "talk shop" with me. I've gotten some job offers in the saddle industry, but I'm in a PhD program in my dream field, so saddles are just a sub-hobby of my horse hobby. One of these days I'm hoping to start a saddle fitting blog, but that pesky dissertation research gets in the way.
Anyway, while writing this post, I realized I'd forgotten a fairly obvious candidate in my last post: the County Conquest. I recommend it with reservations, but I'd have to see an actual picture of the horse to say whether my reservations were founded. Basically I think County likes to tell people that this saddle fits more horses than it really does, but there is certainly a horse/back out there--and it's not rare--that's perfect for the Conquest. The Conquest has potential for what the rider wants, and it's wool flocked, and on $3500 +/- it should be very possible to find one in used or demo condition. Anyone know the latest MSRP on this saddle? I can't quite remember, but I want to say somewhere between $3200 and $3700, more if you want the XTR or bull leather.
ahbaumgardner, agree re: the flap length on the Pessoa monoflap. I'll leave it to yellowbritches since I haven't seen her leg, and I still think she'd be much better off with the British brands. FWIW I agree with yellowbritches' preference for a dual-flap saddle; it's a lot easier to find those with shorter flaps, or to chop off an inch or two on a too-long flap, than it is with a monoflap.

Voltaire has saddle reps around the country, so the best bet would be to e-mail Claude Mode (firstname.lastname@example.com) and he'll connect you with your local rep. They'll want to come to you for the fitting and it's a good opportunity to sit in a few of the demo saddles.

jn4jenny: HOLY CRAP!!! Thanks for all that incredible info!!! It's a lot to process and sort through, but well worth it! I'll be busy tonight!
I am not at all set on French, and, other than the CWDs (and I've only seen those in the more h/j type), haven't actually ever REALLY liked any of them. My butt knows and loves British type saddles, and my pony made it clear that was his preference to his former home. So, we're in agreement there!
FrittSkritt knows me and my legs and my saddle preference. I am not kidding when I say I want/need extra forward. Because my legs are SHORT but the majority of what length there is is in my femur, I shoot off the front of most "forward" flaps in quick order. And I like to ride short. So, yes. Forward is important.
I'll digest this info tonight!
"It's such a fine line between clever and stupid." David St. Hubbins, Spinal Tap
Another vote for Black Country. Great options for rider and horse. Great workmanship. And they make them quick... in many cases, less than 4 weeks from order to the arrival of your beautiful new saddle.
Athletic Horses. Educated Riders.

Yeah, then scratch the Prestige Eventing for sure and don't hold your breath on the Pessoa Monoflap. I think a lot of people don't realize quiiiiiite how forward saddles like the Berney Brothers Dublin Jumper and the Barnsby Diablo are, and I admit that in most of the brands I recommend, you'll have to order custom/new to get that forwardness. But that's another nice thing about the British brands: with a few exceptions, they'll customize for free or cheap.
Re: the Ricochet, that's a nice saddle that I recommend to many. It's basically a Frankensaddle; Black Country kept getting orders for a Quantum, but built on a Wexford tree and a slightly lowered cantle compared to the Wexford, and with certain aesthetic and flap-angle modifications for the show jumping ring. So they decided to just make it a standard part of the lineup. I can see how it would work if you customized the flap angle.
Happy shopping!
YB - I am 5'4" and long femured as well. ALL of my (lack of) height is in my femur. It's outrageous. I ride in an 18" amerigo pinerolo. I have felt perfectly proportioned in it the most out of everything else I've tried.
So, here's where we stand, thus far.
I have a demo Wise saddle coming, hopefully by the end of the week. That was easy enough to set up, so we'll give it a test spin and see what we think. Brooke from Wise has already told me THIS demo is not forward enough, but that I can get an extra forward flap if I go this way.
Stubben man will be out after the first of the month. He's bringing me a variety of models to try, and already knows (from seeing me) that I need extra forward. Some of the newer demos should be more appropriate (I HAVE sat in a more forward demo, however it was huge in the seat and too big on Toby, so just felt "funny").
I think I will talk to Bill Wood and see about trying a couple of Frank Baines. LOVE the look of them! Thanks for that lead.
Also may see if Patty Merli will be around soon and see about trying both the Hastilow (love the look of that so much that I am half tempted to just order one...but I have no idea what panel I need), and the some Black Countrys. I like them, but have never been in love. I am liking the look of the Ricochet.
Even though I have a Wise coming, I am more inclined to want to work one on one with a human who can be hands on. That being said, there are a few people in the area I can call and get them to check things like Wise or other saddles that come without a human.
Thanks again, all, for the great info. I am feeling out of my element. I've never gotten to do anything like this, and there are so many choices and so much info!
YB, do contact Patty Merli, she will bring out a TON of saddles, is incredibly knowledgeable about horses, saddles, and will insist that you ride so she can watch the saddle. I've never met anyone who was so picky about fit...except Rasta - ha! There is a picture of my Vinici jump saddle on the Patty Merli Saddles FB page - not your size but you can at least see the saddle. They can be made to fit anyone's leg.
That being said, Rasta is happiest in a Custom Saddlery Monte Carlo. Have tried other Custom models on him and we get the tail swish, butt fish tail, pinned ears effect. Happy as a clam in the Monte Carlo right off the rack - really balanced for me on the flat and over the itty-bitty stuff I'm jumping. Since Mary Bess has jumped her big boys in the same saddle, I expect it will also do if we make it back to schooling Training. These too can be custom fit to your leg needs - Monte Carlo comes in a dual flap as well as the monoflap.
When in even the slightest doubt - CONTACT jn4jenny!
Happy Saddle hunting - isn't it a blast? hahahahhahaha
~ it no longer matters what level I do, as long as I am doing it..~ with many thanks, to Elizabeth Callahan
When Annette from www.hastilowusa.com came to do my dressage saddle, she also checked the fit of my Wise on Keegan (and pronounced it good). Either she or Patti Merli should be able to give you a sense of the fit. I know Annette did not push at all toward my buying one of her saddles and was totally on board when I picked the absolute least expensive of the dressage saddles we tried ($1100 for a Hastilow). Happy shopping
OTTBs rule, but spots are good too!
Since you have time to make a decision, the Mike Corcorans are very high my personal list to find out more about. Everything that I've heard about his saddles and fitting has been very positive. At least contact him and find out what he might have that would do for you.
I love the Stubben Roxane S for a middle priced saddle. I'd be interested in knowing what Jenny thinks about it.
"I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay."

I called Corcoran once, but for where we are, it is hard to get the fitting done.
I second (third? fourth?) the Hastilow suggestion. I ordered a semi-custom (picked my seat, flap and fit to the horse) jump saddle earlier this year and I really like it. It didn't arrive in time for me actually compete in it this season so I've still not ridden xc in it. That being said, I've ridden in it nearly every ride since it arrived and the balance feels great. Like you, I'm long in the femur (although I'm a bit taller than you) so I feel like this is the first time I've had a saddle that fit both me and the horse.
My only word of caution is that it did take some time for my saddle to arrive. I think they had a bit of a backlog when I placed my order - hopefully that has cleared up by now. But it was worth the wait.
Patty is in Florida at the moment, but I don't know for how long. She was here on Sunday morning, and I really, really, really like working with her.
It sounds like my Taz is similarly built to Toby (and has terribly allergy issues as well -- perhaps they are long lost brothers?!) and he has been very happy in a Black Country I bought for him four years ago. The rep had a Quantum, extra forward flap, reverse doeskin seat and flaps, in a MN tree, and it has been lovely.
I am 5'6" but I have the legs of someone over 6 feet tall, so I have to have extra forward. The Princess has a Quantum that Patty had on the truck for sale used, and it is the regular flap -- it works ok, since I am using it mostly for flatwork with her right now.
I spent several hours with Frank Baines in his tent at Rolex and was very impressed with his dedication to well made saddles. Taz's dressage saddle is a Baines that I had custom made -- and it is lovely. They were fantastic to work with and for a saddle that was custom made to fit him -- very reasonably priced.
If you can catch Patty when she heads back up the East Coast, she really is amazing. And if Bill Woods has some Baines saddles you can try, it would be worth the time to take a look. Both the Black Country and Baines brands are well made, solid saddles in a good middle price range (i.e. in the below $3500-4,000 range)
Patty has also been happy with the Bliss of London saddles she is a rep for now. She did 11 horses at my trainer's barn on Saturday, and chose the Bliss for several of them. She has been very happy with the balance of those saddles.
Happy Shopping! I'm hoping to do the same for a dressage saddle in the Spring. Sigh.

Bliss seems to be nice enough stuff. Their design aesthetic and marketing materials show that they're going for a customer who cares about fashion, but there's no harm in that if the saddle underneath it is solid--and they are. Nice trees, nice workmanship, and the aesthetic touches on the saddle don't seem to negatively impact structure or function. I still think some of their tack looks a bit goofy, but no saddle looks goofy if it's perfect for you and your horse!
While we're on this topic, I guess I should mention why else I specifically recommended Patty, Bill, and Annette: because in addition to the main brands for which they're best known as reps, and in addition to being good trustworthy fitters, they often carry a bunch of smaller-name, up-and-coming-in-the-US British stuff in their trucks too: Bliss, Jeremy Rudge, Borne, Pennfield, etc. And there are gems to be had in those brands too!
I don't think you should discount Prestige.
They come in forward and extra forward flap.
I'm quite tall and I ride in a forward.
I have a shorty friend who is all femur and she rides in a stock flap but fits REALLY well in my forwards flap.
But to be honest, I would fit best in an extra forward flap. : ) But I like my saddles pretty tidy and I don't ride terribly short so it works for me.
And what is nice about them is they are one of the saddles that can be changed for about 100-150 bucks. The saddlers can change the tree about 2.5 cm up or down.
The Courbette Vision is in the process of being remodeled....I think it was fairly forward. Not sure what the new one will be like!
Horses are amazing athletes and make no mistake -- they are the stars of the show!
I think I already told you that the Prestige Eventer 18 might work for you. I am 5'3" with ridiculously long femurs and the 17 inch was not nearly forward enough. But the 18 has more flap and I sat in one that worked for me. It is a great saddle for a decent price and I found mine to do well fitting a variety of horses. You can also find them used here and there. I sold mine because it was a 17 and the only way I could ride in it was to remove the front knee block (and also I prefer a monoflap). I love the Devoucoux Chiberta but it only fits one of my horses well (the others have to have correction pads). My plan is to look seriously into Voltaire next time around.
They are located in FL but Claude travels north often and can be seen at shows.
Patty is great. I bought a Bliss saddle from her and I really like it. I ticked all of the boxes and... because they are made to order, you can order them so they aren't too funny looking. I got a paramour eventer (monoflap) in brown french calf with out blocks. Its very pretty and conservative for a monoflap.
YB- I tried the BC Ricochet and I thought the seat was VERY deep and the saddle very constricting. The Tex Eventer was much better.
I got a County Sensation in August. Really liking it. My jumping trainer was impressed one day at how much my leg had improved over fences - it was the first time I'd ridden with him in the new saddle. Only change I could think of was the saddle. I told him it was new and we both dropped our jaws and admired it for a couple of minutes. I love it. It's the first time I've felt I needed to lock up the tack room at night!

Dogcatcher captures the essence of 'cool', and I mean the classic 'cool'. Aside from the style of the songs themselves (which is excellent, flowing, and filled with life), the members of Dogcatcher each in their own way embody the oft chased but seldom captured coolness that led Django Reinhardt, Jeff Buckley, and the Rolling Stones to greatness. Great article about a great band. Rock on.

11 September 2013
University scientists have developed a novel new data source on Alcohol Licensed Premises that are potentially breaking the law in serving alcohol to drunken customers.Under the Licensing Act 2003, it is an offence to sell, or attempt to sell, alcohol to a person who is drunk. Records show that between September 2012 and March 2013, 306 night-time revellers were admitted to Cardiff's Alcohol Treatment Centre (ATC)* with very severe alcohol intoxication.
Throughout the six-month period, testimony received from patients – and their friends - receiving treatment for intoxication, named 76 of the city's licensed venues as having serving them their last drink. The University's Violence and Society Research Group analysed the data provided by the ATC, thus providing new insights into potential breaches of license conditions. The top five most frequently named venues - where according to patients and people accompanying them - they received their last drink - are as follows:
Other venues named include Lloyds Bar (3.59%), O'Neill's (2.94%) and the Cardiff Students' Union (2.94%). One in ten (10.78%) people who ended up needing treatment for intoxication said they'd taken their last drink in a private residence, while 6.54% said they'd obtained their last drink on the street.Director of Cardiff University's Violence and Society Research Group, Professor Jonathan Shepherd, who developed the data-sharing model, said: "We're confident that these are reliable data and that this is an important new source of intelligence for tackling the epidemic of night-time drunkenness in Cardiff and the harm and expense it causes. This new intelligence will help continue the reduction in levels of injury and disorder in the city centre."
*The Alcohol Treatment Centre is a collaboration between the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, South Wales Police, Wales Probation Trust, both Cardiff and Vale local authorities, Wales Ambulance Trust, St. Johns Ambulance, the R.C. Archdiocese of Cardiff, and the Street Pastors Scheme

Pokémon X and Y Update: Mega Diancie Revealed, Mega Volcanion & Hoopa Coming Soon

By Karla Danica Figuerres | June 26, 2014 9:03 AM EST
Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, new sequels of Pokémon X and Y, maybe trending right now, but there's still quite a bit of the gen 6 games to play. Before the year end last year, leaks of the never-before-seen legendary Pokémon X and Y trio in the form of Diancie, Volcanion and Hoopa were revealed.

These gen 3 starters and legendary Pokémon obtained their mega and primal evolutions in the newest ORAS games, which is absolutely great. It was Mega Diancie which was first revealed before Volcanion and Hoopa which has been known to public that led fans to think that there will be more Megas coming. Could a Mega Volcanion and Mega Hoopa be on the horizon for Pokémon X and Y?
A hacker named Smealum leaked all the information about Diancie, Volcanion and Hoopa back in November with photos and even Pokémon X and Y new attacks. Diancie was officially revealed but the names Volcanion and Hoopa never escaped Nintendo's mouth. Because of GameFreak's confirmation of Mega Diancie's existence, one of these legendary Pokémon, made fans believe that the other two are coming sooner or later. Maybe the creator of the slowly releasing Pokémon X and Y new information to keep fans' interests raging.
So what does this mean for a Mega Volcanion and Mega Hoopa? It is also rumoured that there will be a Mega Latios and Latias, as leaked by Smealum. If it can't appear on the gen 6 game cartridges, it doesn't mean that the Mega evolution isn't coming. Fans could receive a whole new host of Mega forms of Pokémon with Nintendo being able to release an updated version of the game any time.
As for the probability of a Mega Volcanion and Hoopa, fans still need to wait for further information. If only one of these Pokémon X and Y new legendary trio would appear and have a Mega form, it will surely be imbalanced. If any legendary trio of Pokémon were able to Mega evolve it would be Diancie, Volcanion and Hoopa. Right now, it seems like the Pokémon company is using these Mega evolutions to promote a new game or movie more than to improve gameplay.

How to plan a working holiday in India
A journey to the subcontinent can be a daunting prospect, but help is available. reports
Thursday 09 March 2006
A friend travelled to India on his gap year. He'd developed a bit of a paunch with all that comfort eating at A-level time, and heard that India was the best place to lose weight with a quick spell of aggressive diarrhoea. To his dismay, the only condition from which he suffered on the subcontinent was constipation. Always expect the unexpected from India.
Modern India is the world's largest democracy and has its second-largest population and seventh-largest area, enveloping myriad landscapes, from the mountain lakes of Srinagar to the Himalayan peaks; from the beaches of Goa to the banks of the Ganges; from the sprawling slums of Mumbai to the deserts of Rajasthan. All these are within reach of the intrepid gap-year traveller willing to risk the odd bout of culture shock (and tummy trouble).
"I chose India because it was a challenge, and very different to the world I'm used to," says Lizzie Russell, 22, who has been working in a school for underprivileged children in Calcutta. "I love it: the colour, the culture, the sounds and smells, the sights."
At university, Russell campaigned for Make Poverty History and volunteered at Oxfam. She is one of many conscientious and ethically minded young backpackers who take the opportunity to experience unfamiliar cultures through volunteer work. "Working in Oxfam gave me an awareness of what was going on in the world and the thought of making a difference myself," she says.
Recently, Russell moved from Calcutta to Bangalore, where she's working in an after-school centre for six-to-16-year-olds. "They're children who may have illiterate parents, and at home they have no facilities or motivation to learn," she says. "At the centre there are computers, toys and games, and reading and educational tools. It means they can strive for higher educational ideals than their parents might expect."
Russell organised her trip through India gap specialists Gap Guru, who tailor programmes that combine volunteering and travel. By the end of her seven-month trip, Russell will have taken in Delhi, Mumbai, Agra, Goa, Rajasthan and Ladakh, as well as her volunteering placements.
Gap Guru has representatives in each city to meet gappers at the airport and keep in close touch, giving backpackers and their parents peace of mind. The company has established an essay competition for UK schoolchildren, with the prize of six months in India.
The variety of work placements available for British gappers in India is staggering, ranging from education to medical to journalism. Carly Ennis, on a year out between school and university, organised work experience through the gap company Changing Worlds with The Indian Express, an English language newspaper in Chennai. "Chennai's population is 7.5 million," she says. "It's quite a big readership! I worked for the features section, and they'd send me off across Chennai to do reports and interviews at a moment's notice. I would also have to come up with three story ideas of my own each week, and if they were good enough they would get published."
Ennis was the first British work experience trainee the paper had hosted. "I've travelled in Europe, but India really is totally different from anywhere else," she says. "It's a quasi-globalised mixture of the rising middle-class, with their mopeds and their mobile phones, and crushing poverty."
James Hibberd, 23, recently returned from a strenuous but spectacular trip to India and Nepal with VentureCo. His group undertook a 10-day trek in Sikkim in North-east India, which took them high above sea level. Next, they crossed the Nepalese border to go white-water rafting and brave the world's second-highest bungee jump, before making the three-week trek to Everest base camp. The team also spent three weeks in Rajasthan, painting walls, installing electricity and building a kitchen for a school.
After each VentureCo group returns to the UK, they have a feedback session, which allows the company to tweak the experience for subsequent groups. "It would be possible to do those things alone," Hibberd says, "but I don't think I'd have had the initiative. The base camp trek gave me a real sense of achievement, and I wanted to experience India, because it seemed so far away from British culture. It's quite a shock at first. But you get used to it."

CEO: YouTube in Trouble, Too Many Users & Not Enough Cash
293w ago
- YouTube is about to go down the gurgler according to
Benjamin Wayne
, the CEO of Fliqz.
He stated in his blog that YouTube, was an "incandescent tower of video Babel; monument to the sloughed-off detritus of our exponentially-exploding digital culture".
However he claims that it has reached the zenith of its meteoric rise; and Icarus-like, wings melting; is spiraling back to earth.
Wayne pointed out that YouTube is on track to lose roughly $470 million in 2009 something its overlord Google is not going to be happy about.
He said that the economics are hard to overcome and there is no way that YouTube will make enough cash to be sustainable in the long term. The outfit would have to make $9.48 for every video impression shown something which they cannot do.
Wayne added that YouTube's traffic will grow and cost a fortune to run. He thinks that eventually the outfit will have to come up with a subscription.

Sony's PS3 is Catching Up, is Microsoft's XBox 360 in Trouble?
295w ago
- Sony's catching up, and it's only a matter of time until both consoles are battling for what really matters, and what should still really matter in the gaming world - games.
It's lately been about who's got the best online, but those will be almost identical sooner or later and it will be back to the basics.
Sony started off the PS3's life with some okay games, a lackluster online service and little to no DLC to extend the lifetime of their games. 2008 came along, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of the Patriots, Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet and MotorStorm: Pacific Rift were all brought exclusively to the PS3 for the enjoyment of it's users everywhere. Heck, MGS4 received multiple Game Of the Year awards.
Not only were those awesome games added to it's library, it finally received a much-requested feature - the in-game XMB. Rumor after rumor of firmware updates, it's 2008 all over again! Cross-game chat and voice-messaging are coming to the PS3 this year.
There's no doubt in my mind. Sony needs to add a new firmware with new features, they've done so much with the PSP - now it's the PS3's turn.
Just those two added features, and the PSN will come just so much closer to Xbox Live. Not only will the PS3 come closer, but it doesn't have the damn failure rate! How long will...

Microsoft in Deep Trouble with Internet Explorer Decline & Vista?
312w ago
- Microsoft once had a near monopoly on Web browsers with Explorer, so it comes almost as a shock to find that the Web browser most used to access Bruceongames is Firefox 3 and that even the undermarketed Chrome has made a significant impact.
When it comes to search Google always had the majority of the market but MSN now seems to have slipped away to nearly nothing. It doesn't bring many people here.
You can forgive the above because Microsoft, famously, misunderstood the internet so came to it late. Operating systems are different though, Microsoft have owned this sector since MSDOS. But even here there are massive cracks appearing. By far the fastest growing section of the PC industry is Netbooks.
And the Linux derived Ubuntu has become a great success. Microsoft have fought back by bringing XP from the grave. But they are imposing stupid maximum system specifications that attempt to defy Moore's law.
And of course their worst operating system problem is Vista. This has been the biggest trainwreck in the history of Microsoft and they are rushing out Windows 7 to try and mitigate the disaster.
You might think that Microsoft own the market for standard applications with the Office suite of programmes that have swept all in front of them to become global standards....

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed faces development trouble
334w ago
- LucasArts have taken the extrordinary step of risking one of its most highly anticipated titles yet by laying off staff from the development team of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.
An ex member of the crack Jedi programming troupe has revealved that member of the team were released from their contracts before the title had wrapped up. He went on to say that the current team size was insufficient to handle the remaining work.
LucasArts has been qouted as towing the familiar company line around the importance of internal development, but you would have to question their commitment in the wake of this news.
The only hope looks to be through outsourced help. If this is the case, the last parts of the game will be completed by completely new people, with no history in the title. The Star Wars franchise has already suffered a credibility blow with the inclusion of characters in the upcoming Soul Calibre title. Although the majority of Unleashed has been completed this could spell bad news for a successful, bug free release.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is slated for release on September 16th.

Microsoft in 'trouble' as Bill Gates leaves
335w ago
- A Harvard University dropout who ushered in the home computer age and made billions of dollars along the way will have his last official day of work at Microsoft on 27 June.
Three people will essentially fill the void left behind when
Bill Gates
retires from the company he and friend Paul Allen co-founded in 1975.
Since Gates began his transition from leading Microsoft to heading his personally-bankrolled charity, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, his job as chief software architect has been handled by Ray Ozzie.
Craig Mundie inherited Gates' chief research and strategy officer duties, while former Harvard classmate Steve Ballmer became chief executive officer at the Seattle-based software colossus.
Gates left Harvard after two years to found the firm that became global powerhouse Microsoft. He later received honorary degrees from Harvard and other universities.
After retiring, Gates will remain chairman of the Microsoft board of directors and its largest shareholder.
"I don't think anything is going to drastically change the day he leaves," said Matt Rosoff of the private analyst firm Directions On Microsoft.
"If he thinks something is important and tells Steve Ballmer, Ballmer will listen to him."
Still, Gates'...

'GTA 5' Still Possible for PS4 or Xbox One; More 'GTA 5 Online' Rockstar-Approved Jobs
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Gel Galang | February 10, 2014 1:15 PM EST
Talk about "GTA 5" on the PC, the PS4 or the Xbox One is still being brought up time and again after months of the release of "GTA 5" on the PS3 and Xbox 360.
After speculations of a PC release and hopeful players who want it on the next-gen consoles, it seems that Take-Two is still open with the idea, so long as there will be customers in that particular platform, reports MCVUK.
"We wouldn't drive them there, we would just be there if they are there," said Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick to MCVUK regarding the potential release of "GTA 5" and its other games for other platforms. "We are not in the hardware business, we don't have any dog in that hut, we just want to be where the consumer is," he added.
While there is no confirmation on whether or not "GTA 5" will, indeed, find its way on the PC or other consoles, at least there is the hope that, with enough demand, gamers may find the title in another platform.

Longer List of Rockstar-Approved Jobs for 'GTA 5 Online'
For those who are still playing "GTA 5" and "GTA Online" or still looking for a fun way to experience the game, developer Rockstar Games has recently updated its list of Rockstar-verified jobs.
"Once jobs are Rockstar Verified, they become available for play across both platforms, so whether you're on Xbox 360 or PS3, you'll have all these newly Verified creations available in your next Freemode session," said Rockstar on its Newswire.
*"The Order: 1886" won't have multiplayer, but it seems like it's aiming for a cinematic appeal at 30 fps: Check out the details here.
One of the new job picks is from papa salada titled "Beach Side Race," which puts players on ATVs and motorbikes and have them racing alongside the Vespucci Beach North to the Pacific Bluffs.
"Custom Freeway gymkhana" is just another one of the eight races from SaltedCracka is a good one for those looking for jumps, tricky turns and drifting.
With over 2,000 plays before it has gotten its Verified status, cionyes, "From Weazel to Weazel" has players vying for pickups in the game, as each one has been strategically placed in the course to really give them that one big push towards the first dash.
*Have you downloaded the Pokemon Bank already? Here's a quick guide to get a free Celebi off the bank.
"Lodge Battle" is like reliving a slasher movie experience, as it features an abandoned ledge in a forest where it seems like anything can happen. The setting alone puts it on a different playing field compared to other Deathmatches, more so when players start picking their weapon and letting it rip firing squad style.
Check out Rockstar Newswire for more of the verified jobs that gamers can play on the PS3 and Xbox 360.

CP Railway to cut 4,500 jobs, 1,700 by year-end
TORONTO Dec 4 (Reuters) - Canadian Pacific Railway, Canada's second biggest rail carrier, said on Tuesday that it would cut 4,500 employee and contractor jobs by 2016, and expects to cut 1,700 of those by year end.
Under a plan to cut costs and improve the railway's industry-laggard operating efficiency, new Chief Executive Hunter Harrison said the railway would also relocate its headquarters from downtown Calgary to its rail yard in the city, and consider the sale of surplus real estate.
The company will also review options for its Delaware and Hudson Railway Co line in the U.S. Northeast.

Let's chat
The promise of cell phones: "I'm a parent and I have to be able to reach my kids." The reality of cell phones: "Did you see The Real Housewives of #PDX last night?" I'll bet the lofty reasons happen less often than matching all the balls in the lotto. All hail self-justification.

Here's a little instant chat transcript between me and an associate (codenamed "Xi") the other day. You must start by reviewing the link that prompted the following exchange…
Xi: that is class
Xi: why do they care so much if you're on your cell phone
Me: personally i'd guess because it's rude as hell to relate to another human being (like during a commerce transaction) with one of those things pressed against your face. that's just my guess, though. :)
Xi: and personally I don't care what anyone at the counter thinks- If I have to call my baby sitter and tell them I"m running late, who are you (as in the counterman) to be offended for my parenting.
Xi: or been on hold with cable company for 45 minutes, Im not about to hang up for the counterman!
Me: hey you set me up :)

Fun Facts For Thanksgiving
I'm thankful for this post so it's my reblog of the week.

1. The TV dinner and Thanksgiving. In 1953, Swanson overestimated the demand for turkeys that Thanksgiving by a mere 26 tons. Luckily, someone quickly thought that the way to remedy the flub would be to cut up the turkey and package it with trimmings. And hello TV dinners!
2. No shopping if you're a plumber. Black Friday is the busiest day of the year for plumbers! Sorry, no black Friday shopping for you!
3. Living in Turkey. There are four U.S. places named Turkey–Turkey Creek, Louisiana; Turkey, Texas; Turkey, North Carolina; Upper Turkeyfoot and Lower Turkeyfoot, Pennsylvania.

Manson In Love
Eight Simple Rules For Mating My Mid-Twenties Plotter
Who says there's no good news anymore? A wedding?!? For reals? Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah! I, for one, am ready for a healthy, deep-cleansing cry. Somebody get me a hanky.
Charles Manson, 80, and Afton Elaine Burton (using the known alias of Star), 26, are getting ready to say the big "I do." Reportedly the State of California has issued these rambunctious youngsters a license to marry.
I was wondering about the rules in a situation like this. Here goes.
- No touching!!! Daddy horny, Michael.
- Write your own vows. I obtained an advance copy of Charlie's. "If you look down at me you will see a fool; if you look up at me you will see a god; if you look straight at me you will see yourself." That's some deep fucking shit. I wasn't able to get my grubby mitts on a copy of Star's but I imagine it would be something along the lines of, "These shrooms are making me so high, man."
- Sometimes a crazed look in the eye is more than enough.
- A single serving of Viagra is worth a carton of cigarettes.
- An appropriate color scheme is crucial to complement the swastika tattoo between your eyes.
- Scheduling early is crucial if one wishes to be joined together by an officially licensed Church of Satan representative.
- As a musician, Manson can also be the wedding singer performing his own original songs. No one should have to sit through that. (I offer my services performing the song, Halloween In Heaven; Christmas In Hell.)
- The couple wishes no gifts from this physical plane of existence (other than Depends) and asks that donations are made in the couple's name to Toys For Tots.
Societal death spasms
Neighbor kills neighbor. Don't worry, though. They will pay for what they've done. Especially if they hate the inconvenience of annoying paperwork, attending a couple of hearings and paying a fine. That's more than sufficient punishment for killing a fellow human being, right?
What is a society? My definition is a system where people make decisions that impact the safety of others. More and more it seems like that's the only definition that matters.

Know Before You Go:
Attention: Once the lottery has closed, Dinosaur National Monument Green and Yampa River Permits are only available through the Dinosaur River Office beginning March 2.
Dinosaur National Monument - Green and Yampa River Permits, CO
02 Deerlodge Park, Yampa River
The Yampa River begins at Deerlodge Park and rushes downstream 44 miles to join the Green River at Echo Park. The Yampa, called the Bear River by trappers and early settlers, is the largest unregulated tributary within the Colorado river system, as such, it has a shorter season more marked by fluctuations in water level as the river is dependent on the snows received over the winter. It is characterized by such famous rapids as Teepee, Big Joe, and Warm Springs as well as numerous smaller, named rapids.

Improving transit times and favorable rates give air and ocean shippers another option China-to-Europe transportation options for automotive and high-value electronics shippers are much like that famous fairly tale about a blond-headed upstart and three bears. Ocean shipping is and was the slowest and cheapest mode, with a transit time of about 30 days but at roughly a tenth the price of air cargo delivery. And air cargo offers much faster delivery, but the expediency comes with far steeper prices that many supply chain managers would like to shake.

A Racist Retraction
Talk about poor sportsmanship. Italian gymnast and MTV reality star Carlotta Ferlito resorted to saying racist comments after coming in fourth place after USA bronze-medal winner African-American Simone Biles. Two days after catching flack, Ferlito apologized, tweeting, "I want to apologize with the Americans girls. I didn't want to sound rude or racist. I love Simone and I'm a huge fan of USA gymnastics."

|Current Watches, Warnings and Advisories for Hopkins (TXC223) Texas Issued by the National Weather Service
MARANA, Ariz. (AP) — The remaining top four seeds went down, and so did the defending champion. The often-unpredictable Match Play Championship more than lived up to its reputation in a topsy-turvy second round at Dove Mountain on Thursday. An event already minus Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson sent several of the world's best to an early exit.
