NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB Kepler Graphics Card Review
Another GK104 Option for $299
If you missed our live stream with PC Perspective's Ryan Shrout and NVIDIA's Tom Petersen discussing the new GeForce GTX 660 Ti you can find the replay at this link!!
While NVIDIA doesn't like us to use the codenames anymore, very few GPUs are as flexible and as stout as the GK104. Originally released with the GTX 680 and then with the dual-GPU beast known as the GTX 690 and THEN with the more modestly priced GTX 670, this single chip has caused AMD quite a few headaches. It appears things will only be worse with the release of the new GeForce GTX 660 Ti today, once again powered by GK104 and the Kepler architecture at the $299 price point.
While many PC gamers lament about the lack of games that really push hardware today, NVIDIA has been promoting the GTX 660 Ti as the upgrade option of choice for gamers on a 2 -4 year cycle. Back in 2008 the GTX 260 was the mid-range enthusiast option while in 2010 it was the GTX 470 based on Fermi. NVIDIA claims GTX 260 users will see more than 3x the performance increase with the 660 Ti all while generating those pixels more efficiently.
I mentioned that the GeForce GTX 660 Ti was based on GK104 and what you mind find interesting is that it is nearly identical to the specifications of the GTX 670. Both utilize 7 SMXs for a total of 1344 stream processors or CUDA cores and both run at a reference clock speed of 915 MHz base and 980 MHz Boost. Both include 112 texture units though the GeForce GTX 660 Ti does see a drop in ROP count from 32 to 24 and L2 cache drops from 512KB to 384KB. Why?
Continue reading our review of the new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB Graphics Card!!
The only other major specification to change is the memory bus width: the GeForce GTX 660 Ti will have a 192-bit memory bus while the GTX 670 and the GTX 680 run at 256-bit. While the memory will still run at 6.0 GHz, the total available memory bandwidth drops from 192.2 GB/s down to 144.2 GB/s - a decrease of 35%. How that will play out in actual gaming will be shown on the benchmark pages but I can tell you that it altered performance more than I expected it to.
Here is the full breakdown of specifications as detailed above with other notable change seen in the TDP decrease of 20 watts.
For this launch NVIDIA didn't send us any reference cards and instead we got partner overclocked solutions from Galaxy, MSI, EVGA and Zotac. (We are going to follow up this week with a quick roundup.) Because of that, our pictures are going to vary from card to card and design to design, but we'll use the MSI option for our descriptions here.
The output configuration could vary but we expect all the GeForce GTX 660 Ti cards to include a pair of DVI connections, a full size HDMI and a full size DisplayPort.
Like the GTX 670, the GeForce GTX 660 Ti only requires a pair of 6-pin PCIe power connections.
3-Way SLI support continues here as well!
If you remember, the reference GTX 670s used a smaller length PCB and while our MSI and Galaxy cards for the GeForce GTX 660 Ti launch do NOT, the EVGA and Zotac options did, seen here.
For gamers looking to pick up a GeForce GTX 660 Ti right away, you might be stoked to find out that NVIDIA is including a copy of Borderlands 2 with MOST of the retail units. Considering how successful we expect this game to be, that $50-60 value really is great to see for a launch like this.
NVIDIA sent along this video that demonstrates Borderlands 2 OF COURSE with a PhysX emphasis - why not include it here to get you excited for the game?
I am planning a build which will use 3 660ti's in a 3 way SLi configuration so I should find out just how much of an improvement that makes in the next year. Your next question is why? Well I am not as interested in the performance gain as I am interested in getting at cheap GPUs. I am building the computer as mainly a GPU compute platform its ability to serve as a gaming platform is a perk. I am looking to take advantage GPU processing capabilities for GIS work.
interesting, what type of data?
*HELP* Can it handle 3 monitors???? *HELP*
it can handle 4, 3 at once for gaming and one on the side
It's my understanding that a 660Ti is a crippled 670gtx on a 192bit bus. So why? can these cards not SLI? surely the 670 would reduce its bus speed down to 192. before you go saying whats the point (I picked up a 660ti for £80 Black friday on Amazon) two 660ti's beat a 670gtx in most youtube benchies.
I'm going to buy gtx 660 ti but,I don't know which version of gtx660ti is the best. I'm thinking about gigabyte gtx660ti 3gb (gv n66toc 3gd)
As of right now, the HD 7870 is $80 less than the 660 Ti on Newegg. I don't think that $80 is worth the performance difference at all.

10 Questions for Tiffany Evans
Two-and-a-half years have elapsed since 18-year-old Tiffany Evans' sparkling vocals have graced the airwaves. But don't take her missing-in-action ways as a sign she's out of the music circuit for good. The petite star's been busy crafting the follow-up to her 2008 self-titled debut. While the sophomore project has a title she's yet to reveal, the mature Ms. Evans talks openly about her new single, the piano-laden ballad "I'll Be There," to a crowd of high school students. "It's very inspirational," she shares at the "I Will Graduate" concert inside the Tribeca Performing Arts Center. "I hope you feel it and love it."
After shaking the hands of staunch supporters while performing on stage, Tiffany, who recently signed to a management deal with Mathew Knowles' Music World Entertainment, grabs a seat and crosses her legs ever so lady-like, to discuss her return to the capricious music business. Read on as the cheerful songstress reveals why she had trouble turning to singers like Ciara for advice, the singing legend who inspires her, and the rap song that keeps her on her feet. This soul sister knows a good 16 when she hears it.
1. You recently shot the video for "I'll Be There." What can we expect to see you doing in the video?
2. You had Ciara on your debut single "Promise Ring." She seemed like a big sister to you. Did you ever turn to her or anyone else in the music industry for advice?
3. Where have you called home throughout the years?
4. Finish this sentence: The best thing about growing up in the Bronx is…?
5. What's one rap song you just can't get out of your head?
6. Which aspect of your career are you trying to master?
7. Your sophomore album has been floating around with the title of Miss Tiffany, which hints at a more mature sound. How have you grown since the release of your first album?
8. Who are some of the producers you're working with on the new album?
9. Is there one artist who has inspired your career?
10. What's one item you never forget to go out of the house with each day?

Jack Nance as Henry Spencer in Eraserhead (1977), David Lynch's first feature film.
April Ludgate
Lucio Dalla, 4.3.1943 – 1.3.2012
The Walking Dead
Steven Yeun as Glenn from The Walking Dead.
The sketch:
I made a video of the painting process. It's extremely sped up (the painting took well over 6 hours to complete) but aside from that there's no editing so bad decisions, mistakes and moments of doubt are all included.
As usual you can see more images in my Portfolio Gallery.
More Cowbell
Christopher Walken as fictional producer Bruce Dickinson in the famous Saturday Night Live sketch "More Cowbell".
Here's a short animation of the painting process:

Grady Wilson
Whitman Mayo as Grady Wilson from Sanford and Son and its short-lived spin-off Grady. See more in my Portfolio Gallery.
Grady Wilson Sketch
Remember Sanford and Son?
Bunny Colvin Sketch Take 2
I tweaked this before starting the paints and I definitely improved the likeness.
I can't believe I thought the previous sketch was good enough!
Bunny Colvin Sketch
Sketch of Howard "Bunny" Colvin from The Wire, the subject of my next TV painting.
Hank Lawson
Mark Feuerstein as Hank Lawson from Royal Pains.
Bigger, detailed images in my Portfolio Gallery.
Swanson, p.i.
Here's Ron Swanson from Parks And Recreation starring in his own spin-off series, "Swanson, p.i." Obviously a mashup with "Magnum, p.i.", the iconic 1980s series starring Tom Selleck.
Ron Swanson is my favorite character on TV right now. The writers of the show and actor Nick Offerman have given him such depth that I can see Ron Swanson deal with any situation. It would be great if they actually did this series, where Ron quits the government, moves to Hawaii and becomes a private investigator, fighting bad guys with his trusty golden gun.
Fantasy Peaks
Another TV show character, this time it's a remix of two characters from two different shows: Tattoo from Fantasy Island (played by Hervé Villechaize) as The Man From Another Place from Twin Peaks (originally played by Michael J. Anderson).
I thought it would have been funny if the guy who'd played a dwarf on one show had played a dwarf on another show too, hence the "TV mashup."
Here's a short breakdown of the process behind the painting.
I started with a clean sketch, no crosshatching and no shading.
I chose a medium dark color for the background to set the mood for the image and I started blocking in the main shapes to check that the composition was working.
Next I quickly painted the character in black and white to ensure the values were correct and the image read as three-dimensional.
The main color areas were blocked in as big, flat shapes on a separate layer in Color blending mode. This had the result of tinting the underlying b&w value study.
Jump to several hours later when the skin tones have been found (see the palette in the top right corner) and enough shape and volume have been blocked in to render the line sketch superfluous.
The face is completed with the addition of strong highlights and the rest of the painting is brought up to the same level of detail.
All the details are in, the lighting is enhanced and the painting is done.
See a couple of close ups in my Portfolio Gallery.
There are several things I should improve but given that this is only my second ever digital painting I'm satisfied with the result and I'm moving on. One can only do so much in a single image and I know the next one will be better.
Frank Costanza
Digital painting of Jerry Stiller as Frank Costanza from Seinfeld.
The first in a series of portraits of TV show characters.
Playing, Painting, Fishing with John
My tribute to legendary composer, actor, painter and fisherman John Lurie.

Le Rubirosa
Porfirio Rubirosa was the last of the great playboys. According to the legend he was extremely endowed, his appendage having been famously described by Truman Capote as "an 11-inch cafe au lait sinker as thick as a man's wrist."
Allegedly Parisian bistros to this day call the biggest pepper mill "le Rubirosa" so here's my tribute to the great lothario, in the form of a magazine ad from the late Fifties/early Sixties.

As another year has come and gone, a fresh crop of talent will be emerging over the next twelve months. Once again our rules remain the same, all artists included have been handpicked and have yet to put out a full length on any label. Through a heavy selection process, we've collectively put together an exciting roster of artists who we feel are headed for a breakout year in 2013. Your Fresh Faces of '13 are below.
Saint Lou Lou
"Enchanting sisterly duo who have all the right tools to make retro soft melodic pop enjoyable again." First single "Maybe You" is nothing short of a stunning debut.
St. Lucia
"Electro popster with a winning formula for writing/producing some serious grooves. His forthcoming debut album will surely be a staple in many of playlists for this year."
Laura Mvula
"A soulful siren newbie who splashed on the scene in late 2012 and already has people highly anticipating her forthcoming debut album due in March. She simply oozes nostalgia and is geared for a heavy heavy 2013."
"Electro-soul duo who just continue to keep making hit after hit single. There will be no signs of that slowing down when their forthcoming debut "Body Music" hits us in late Spring."
Jhene Aiko
"Beautiful & talented songstress who has a knack for making moody pop-soul. She's the new face over at Def Jam and if done right…. Jhene will have a stellar 2013. Everything she put out last year was magnificent. Expect her major label debut "Souled Out" to be one of the best 2013 has to offer.
"Experimental-pop New York based duo who have been on a surge since putting out one of the best debut singles of 2012 with "Hurricane." Expect that surge to continue when the two put out their debut long player "Popilepsy" coming in mid Spring.
The Neighbourhood
"Indie rock and a dash of pop is the best way to describe the quintet known as The Neighbourhood. Their EP got plenty of spins around the Cafe in 2012 and we are looking forward to their debut album this year. These guys can switch their style up, so we are eager to see what their new project will sound like, and so should you."
"MØ caught our attention with her insanely infectious Pilgrim, which also caught the attention of a few record labels (Sony eventually won the biding war). The Copenhagen-born singer has drawn comparisons to Lykke Li and Grimes, but we know the Indie Pop singer has a huge 2013 and beyond in store."
"If we were ranking this list we would put post Punk UK quartet, Savages in the top 3. The band had a solid 2012 with the little bit of material they released. A fairly new band that we feel have been laying down the blueprint to success for this upcoming year."
"Haim are the total package. The three sisters manage jump between and also mix R&B and Rock genres with a touch of sexiness. Being pegged as the winner of the 2013 BBC Sound will put the bulls-eye on them. We doubt they will disappoint."
Charli XCX
"The budding singer-songwriter who has a knack for making dark electro-pop will finallly be releasing her full length debut this year. Expect it to be a smash.
Earl Sweatshirt
"Out of the OFWGKTA collective Earl Sweatshirt is hands down the best rapper. His guest appearance on Frank Ocean's debut album and his standout single, Chum has this teenager lined up to have huge breakthrough in this new year."
"Brother duo Disclosure make dance tunes for you to groove to and sometimes for you to just nod your dome to. The UK group have been releasing music since 2010 and slowly honing their skills. The way they closed out 2012 has us thinking that momentum will carry into this new year."
Joey Bada$$
"New York Hip Hop Artist Joey Bada$$ was buzzed about for much of last year. His style and content evoke images of Nas and when hip-hop was much more story based. The young MC can join our ever growing list of young hip-hop artists who are helping bring the genre back to it's glory days."

Many conditions mimic the signs and symptoms of poisoning, including seizures, alcohol intoxication, strokes and insulin reactions. So look for the signs and symptoms listed below and if you suspect poisoning, call your regional poison control center or, in the United States, the National Capital Poison Center at 800-222-1222 before giving anything to the affected person.
Signs and symptoms of poisoning
Common signs and symptoms to look for include:
When to call for help
Call 911 or your local emergency number immediately if the person is:
If the person seems stable and has no symptoms, but you suspect poisoning, call your regional poison control center or, in the United States, the National Capital Poison Center at 800-222-1222. Provide information about the person's symptoms, age and weight, and any information you have about the poison, such as amount and how long since the person was exposed to it. It helps to have the pill bottle or poison container on hand when you call.
What to do while waiting for help
Some things you can do for the person until help arrives:
What NOT to do
Don't give ipecac syrup or do anything to induce vomiting. The American Academy of Pediatrics advises discarding ipecac in the home, saying there's no good evidence of effectiveness and that it can do more harm than good.

Are these guys joking? Usually. But Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, long billed as ''New Zealand's fourth-most-popular folk-parody duo,'' are serious about conquering America. Though each of the Kiwi natives has film credits of his own Clement, 33, stars in the quirky love story Eagle vs Shark (opening this weekend; see EW review) while 31-year-old Mackenzie's role as an eye-catching elf in 2003's Lord of the Rings: Return of the King had online admirers calling him ''Figwit'' (''Frodo Is Great Who Is That?'') the two-man band is ready for TV stardom.
The onetime college roommates portray New York newcomers who are clueless about cracking the music scene in the new HBO comedy series they co-created, Flight of the Conchords (debuts Sunday, June 17, at 9:30 p.m.). Building on an international following of fans who love their droll lyrics and deadpan delivery, they'll play Bonnaroo June 16-17 and record a new CD in July. Clement and McKenzie spoke to EW about dayjobs, girlfriends, and Daryl Hall.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Describe your new HBO series.
JEMAINE CLEMENT: There are a lot of difficult situations that lead to awkwardness. We usually have one big awkward scene every show. I wouldn't say it's exactly like The Office or Curb Your Enthusiasm, where it's all awkward, all the way. But there's always some element of that.
BRET MCKENZIE: It's a difficult thing to describe. It's a musical comedy. Something like Curb Your Enthusiasm crossed with The Monkees.
CLEMENT: Trying to describe it, we always fail to do it in a very appetizing way.
Would it be accurate to call it semi-improvised?
MCKENZIE: We write full scripts, so we have a structure, and we improvise off that. Looking at the edits, I'd say there are large portions of improvised stuff. You can see the life in the takes when it's improvised. It's quite clear there are moments that seem too unexpected to be scripted.
In one episode, Bret calls home to New Zealand from New York and mentions he's not carrying a gun. Was that based on a myth New Zealanders have about us?
MCKENZIE: I guess so.... But doesn't everyone have a gun here?
CLEMENT: I had a guy from New Zealand stay on my couch who was almost terrified to go outside, based on movies that he saw in the '80s. He's realizing now that it's fine. It's America's own fault, though. That's the way it portrays itself.
MCKENZIE: Star Wars really made it confusing.
CLEMENT: That's not set in America.
MCKENZIE: Oh, right. Well I, actually, I expected the Ewoks to be here. I was really disappointed.
Your characters room together how much did your days as roommates inform those scenes?
CLEMENT: We didn't literally live in the same room, like on the series.
MCKENZIE: The show is mainly influenced by our experiences touring and performing as a band.
CLEMENT: Actually, when we'd first come to the States and do shows, we'd share a hotel room. We wouldn't now. We wouldn't be able to take it, because we spend so much time together filming and writing.
MCKENZIE: We've traveled to Europe, we've played Edinburgh a lot, [but for the series] we've drawn a lot on the days when we were drawing crowds of five people. Our desperate years.
CLEMENT: We both had pretty bad jobs when we were roommates. You saw the episode where Bret has to hold a sign? Well, he once had a job where he had to dress up as a boat. Like a tugboat, and give out fliers for rides on the boat. I haven't done anything as embarrassing as that.
What made you decide to form a musical duo?
MCKENZIE: We started the band in 1998. I was a musician. Jemaine wasn't. We were students, and we wanted to learn how to play guitar, so we started writing songs, 'cause we weren't capable of playing other people's songs.
CLEMENT: We were both sick of doing auditions for crappy American TV movies and for TV shows in New Zealand, and we'd never get them, or the parts would never suit us. And I remember, we had a big discussion: ''Oh, let's do a band, then.'' We made up a few songs. And we just kept doing it.
MCKENZIE: Most of our early songs are based on one chord. As the years have gone on, now we're up to seven chords.
And why did you name yourselves ''Flight of the Conchords''?
MCKENZIE: There isn't really a good story. Other than...we shared...a dream. A vision. [Laughs] Jemaine's explanation will be completely different.
CLEMENT: It was just, like, a last-minute thing. We had a gig and we didn't have a name. We had to come up with something quickly. We were considering ''Tanfastic.'' Which is the name of a suntan lotion.
NEXT PAGE: ''We have different tastes in comedy. But they generally align. And I think we have different skills...Jemaine's grumpy, and I'm moody.''

Facebook Talked a Professor Into Helping Build a Better Emoticon
Heedlessly disregarding the bad luck of looking anything like MySpace, Facebook recently added the option of emoticons for status updates. But, according to Popular Science, the social network couldn't simply use the same smiley faces that've done the Internet perfectly good for more than a decade. No, besides the old standbys you'll have the option of expressing your feelings with a custom-designed, "compassion-research-based set of emoticons."

Way to thin Purchased for my daughters and we were excited about the price but the material was way to thin, you could slightly see through, would probably get worse as worn. September 2, 2014
nice suit my girls use this for their swim team suits. They fit well and are a good quality July 8, 2014
BEST SUIT This is the best suit ever if you do competitive swimming like me. May 13, 2014
great suit I love this suit for me having a male body it fits great a little tighter then the other suits I have but other wise I love it January 26, 2014
Perfect swim suit This swim suit is perfect for all ages. Bought it for my 10 yr old daughter. She received so many compliments. Fits perfectly and appropriate for her swim meets January 19, 2014
Great Value I purchased the red suit online and was very happy with the fit! The suit was black on the inside which I liked, I'm hoping it will prevent the material from becoming see-through prematurely. I have no bum so there was a little extra room in the bottom area, but it didn't ride up or create any noticeable drag. For the price, I was super happy and would recommend this suit for full coverage lap/competitive swimming :) December 7, 2013
great for training i got this for cross training ( swimming laps in the pool).. the fit seems funny compared to the Dolfin uglies.. the straps do stay put and offer great range of motion, this seems to not squeeze my stomach like the uglies do, but for the overall I like the uglies more, I feel more over all support. but this suit seems to be worth the price, lets see if I think the same in a few months :) October 24, 2013
don't know what this is There is not any lining in bust of suit. My daughter has a pool job this summer and needs to wear a sports bra underneath...fyi..she is not big busted...there is NO support at all! June 13, 2013

apparently a coaster is going to be placed in spaceship earth....does anybody know anymore details?

apparently a coaster is going to be placed in spaceship earth....does anybody know anymore details?
I find that hard to belive. The only way they could do that is to take part spaceship earth.
I heard this rumor a long time ago and never knew if it was true. I heard it was supposed to be called Project Gemini and be twin coasters. I hope they don't do it.
Along side this rumor was that Ellen would be re-vamped, Wonders of Life would be scrapped, a roller coaster would be added to The Land, and the Living Seas would go under a complete rehab. The project was supposed to be completed by 2003 - it seems that we can forget those ideas!
Actually it'd be pretty funny if they just put a coaster on the existing track... go through everything real fast, and speed up the narration.
Space ship earth.. the fast version.
they'd have a hard time stopping the ride then eh?!
they wouldn't have to speed up the narration either, just use chip and dale.
I remember when I was a midg err... small person, I'd be scared to death while waiting in line to enter SSE! I even knew what was inside, but there's something about standing under it that gives me the willies. So I could see where someone came up with a coaster idea for it. But I doubt it's structurally sound enough to handle such stress, even if it were to be weaker than SM.
Project: Gemini is a big rumor at this point...its about an 80% chance its going to be fullfilled
My family would be very disappointed. We enjoy SSE...I hate it when they mess with the originals!
Project Gemini has been rumored for years, and includes a major overhaul of mych of Future World, including a rumored coaster for SSE.
While I initially thought it may have been a good idea, I am not sure Disney would make such a substantial change to WDW's most popular attraction. Maybe some updating is in order, though... (?)
disney has to keep up with nearby parks so they are constantly adding new thrills
I'd rather see them fill in showcase lagoon and put a :donald: coaster there. :rolleyes:
rather than mess up SSE
they should make a haunted mansion coaster....increase the size of the mansion
I don't care much about SSE, but I would rather them leave it alone. I know Disney thinks they have to have the thrills to keep up with other parks, but I like my Disney just the way it is. Sure I love all the thrill rides, but if Disney was all thrill rides I would not won't to go. I love Disney for it's mixture of rides for all ages and I hope they don't take that away.
This is not a rumor it is true. It will be inside Spaceship earth and they are going to have part of it external. The living seas is being refurbed as well and it will have a large "Nemo" twist to it where you go to his home. Dates have already been set on both of these projects. Just so you know I am not a freak my Dad has been in Management at WDW for 25 years. He told me about soarin coming 3 years before it was opened.
Thanks for the information! BTW - Anyone who finds this site is not a freak so WELCOME! :lol: We are just, as my mom recently put it, Overly Enthusiatic about a Mouse's Kingdom and company! :)

Russell Wilson And Seattle Seahawks Are Poised For Big Finish
Seattle Seahawks rookie quarterback Russell Wilson and receivers Golden Tate and Sidney Rice finally have added the missing dimension for the Hawks, and their continued rise could result in a playoff spot.
Back Nine: A Look At The Seattle Seahawks' Remaining Games
After playing four of the first seven on the road and beating two playoff powerhouses at home, the Seattle Seahawks have a pretty friendly final nine games — if they can figure out how to score touchdowns.
Seattle Seahawks Head Coach Pete Carroll Can't Change Quarterbacks Now
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll made his decision and can't go back now. He has decided to risk wasting a year of his great defense on the chance that Russell Wilson can turn into the quarterback he thinks he is.
Doug Baldwin a Game-Time Decision for Seattle Seahawks
A hamstring injury shut Baldwin down for most of the preseason, and he caught just three passes for 13 yards in the first two games. Now, a shoulder injury has him questionable for the Monday night game against Green Bay. Coach Pete Carroll told reporters Saturday that Baldwin banged the shoulder Thursday and will be a game-time decision.
Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks Are Well-Connected
For over a decade now, games between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks have been full of reunion backstories.
Seattle Seahawks Should Give Matt Flynn The Start Vs. Packers
If Pete Carroll wanted to be fair to Flynn, he would let him start against his former team Monday night.
Can Pete Carroll Trump Mike Holmgren's Success With The Seattle Seahawks?
There are some similarities in how the two regimes started off, but Carroll seems to be ahead of Holmgren in building the Hawks into a contender. If Carroll is as good at sustaining it as Holmgren was, the Seahawks could be on their way to another good decade of football.
Seahawks End Preseason Unbeaten After Routing Raiders 21-3
Rookie Quarterback Russel Wilson played just one quarter in his final tuneup before the regular season, so high-priced backup Matt Flynn led Seattle on three scoring drives. The Seahawks (4-0) closed out the second perfect preseason in franchise history with a 21-3 win over the Oakland Raiders (1-3) on Thursday night.
Seattle Names Russell Wilson Starting QB
Pete Carroll and John Schneider were overjoyed during the April NFL draft when the Seattle Seahawks were able to grab Russell Wilson in the third round.

You Can't Hurry Love
In relationships, I tend to get emotionally attached way too soon. I've been dating this guy for only four days, and I already think I may be in love with him. How can I be sure?
--Vega ReneQuestion:
Sherry Amatenstein
Sherry is the author of The Q&A Dating Book and Love Lessons from Bad Breakups. She has taught dating seminars, appeared as an expert... Read more
Dear Vega Rene:
Take a deep breath, Vega Rene. No, take four. The time it took you to breathe those deep ones is just about the time you've known this fellow you profess to love. The emotions you're feeling have little or nothing to do with him and everything to do with you. To be more specific, you're suffering from insecurity -- you think you cannot be complete without a man in your life. Of course that is not true. The truth is you can't form a lasting romantic bond until you can look in the mirror and like the solo (as in, not attached to a man) reflection staring back at you.
Love is all about two independent individuals bringing out the best in each other, not merging into one person. And love is not about one somewhat desperate person clinging for dear life to a seemingly heroic mate.
It's great that you know you have this obsessive tendency. Rather than attaching yourself prematurely to a man you barely know (a move nearly guaranteed to drive him away), begin examining your heart to determine what void you expect your potential boyfriend to fill. The more you understand where you're truly coming from and what you're truly looking for, the sooner you will see him for who he is, not for who you want him to be.Answer:

Aside from the small fact that he is Jigsaw, the mastermind behind the terrifying Saw flicks, he is not the worst roommate ever. He likes to watch sports, he enjoys the company of others, and he is down to play games all day, every day.
Okay, who are we kidding? Jigsaw is damn creepy. He pops up out of nowhere when you least expect him to play games -- and we're not talking about Monopoly.
In this hilarious parody video, comedian Chris Capel shows what it's like to live with the devilish villain. In one scene, Jigsaw's roommate Gary must walk across a bathroom floor covered in razors to retrieve his iPad and cell phone before the clogged toilet overflows and destroys his belongings. In another, Gary's dog has been forced to eat his car keys. Gary must either be late to work for the fourth time or take the life of his best friend with a drawer full of "weapons" (er, ice-cream scoops) to get the keys. Check out the laugh-out-loud video below if you dare. In the words of Jigsaw, "the choice is yours":

Tanzania has been our passion for a very long time. It remains a truly exciting country to visit, with some of the best safaris in all of Africa. The wildlife is thriving, the landscapes are stunning, its Indian Ocean islands are breath-taking. We would love to tell you more...
Fanjove is the most exciting new beach destinations in Tanzania in recent years - a superb beach and an absolute Robinson Crusoe experience.
Siwandu reigns supreme in our opinion. It has a fantastic location, great guides and gorgeous tents offering every luxury in a truly authentic style. Discreetly tucked amongst the palm trees on the banks of Lake Nzerakera, it has everything you could want in a safari holiday and is definitely our number one tented camp in the Selous.
Jongomero is an absolutely exceptional safari camp. It is one of our favourites in the whole of Tanzania, which is not a compliment we hand out easily. It is the most luxurious camp in the park as well as offering fantastic service, the most remote location and guiding so good it borders on genius. Jongomero really is a firm favourite and one we highly recommend.
Sasakwa is Singita's Tanzania flag ship lodge: one of the most luxurious lodges in Tanzania with some of the most spectacular views in the whole Serengeti. We love the private infinity plunge pools in each room and the unbelievable stables boasting some of the very best horse back safari in Tanzania.
The Ocean Suite is an exclusive private suite run by the Ras Nungwi beach hotel. The private house has its own private steps down to the beach, just to the side of the main hotel. One of the best suites on the island, complete with private plunge pool, great privacy and lots of space.

Celebrate Kidspace
Happy 35th birthday Kidspace!
In 1979, Kidspace was only a small group of exhibits at Caltech, and now we are 3.5 acres in Brookside Park. Over the last 35 years, 4 million children and cregivers have participated in the hands-on learning opportunities offered by the Museum's talented staff and engaging exhibits. Kidspace values children's achievement in learning milestones through exploration and discovery. Our early childhood programs provide tactile experiences that hone development in the early stages. In every exhibit children interact with one of our trained educators that ignite a child's interest in the world around them. We are looking forward to creating more interactive experiences, piloting more unique programs, and reaching even more children over the next 35 years. Kidspace is seeing one of the most exciting times in its history and we want you to join us in this journey as none of this would be possible if it was not for the generosity of contributions from friends like you.
As a 501(c)3 nonprofit community organization, Kidspace Children's Museum depends on the contributions of individuals, corporations, and foundations to continue to provide one-of-a-kind experiences in exploration, discovery and learning. Roughly 35% of the Museum's budget comes from people and organizations like you – eager to partner with us to help close the achievement gap between our children and children in 22 other countries.
Help us celebrate the Museum's 35th birthday by making a gift today! Your gift can help provide items like the following…
$100 – 1 month of supplies for our Early Childhood Arts Program
$250 – 1 month of experiments & demonstrations in the Galvin Physics Forest
$500 – 1 month of food & veterinary care for the critters in our live animal collection
$1,000 – 1 Free Family Night performance that will be enjoyed by over 1,000 guests
$2,500 – 6 months of supplies and activities in the Boone Foundation Nature Exchange
$5,000 – 1 year of plants and program supplies for our nationally recognized Gardens
Please consider giving a tax-deductible gift to help the Museum continue to present unique, interactive exhibits and incomparable children's educational programs and activities. Without the commitment of community-minded partners, the Museum would not be able to provide such an array of inspirational opportunities to so many children, their families, and educators.

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany: We wanted revenge over Chelsea (video)
Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany savoured "revenge" for his side's Premier League defeat by Chelsea last week after turning the tables in the FA Cup.
Goals from Stevan Jovetic and Samir Nasri earned City a 2-0 win and a place in the quarter-finals, twelve days after a 1-0 loss in the league.
City were completely outplayed on that occasion and Kompany told our reporter Gabriel Clarke: "We wanted revenge today.
"Twelve days ago we had a really bad game, we gave them a lot of chances but we created a lot as well. Today we just adapted, they played the same and it was comfortable for us.
"From the word go were hard in the challenge, we were spot-on creating a lot of chances and we didn't give any away.
"It's a big win against a strong team. We love the FA Cup, I think this was a great game for the competition and we're really happy with the result."
Definition of a great weekend: Win against Chelsea. Play well. Set a benchmark on Facebook. 1M likes, I'm feeling the love, thank you. #MCFC

PHOENIX (AP) -- Marchers carrying signs, banners and flags from the United States and Mexico filled central Phoenix Saturday, protesting the state's tough new crackdown on illegal immigration.
Dozens of police officers lined the route, but said there were no arrests. Police declined to estimate the size of the crowd, but it appeared at least 10,000 to 20,000 protesters turned out. Organizers had said they expected the demonstration to bring as many as 50,000 people.
With temperatures in the 90s, Phoenix police say about 20 people were treated for heat or fatigue-related symptoms, and seven of them were taken to a hospital.
The law's opponents also gathered elsewhere, including the Texas Capitol in Austin and outside the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City.

Groups issue joint statement in support of Strong Start campaign
The AHA and six other organizations that support the delivery of maternity care yesterday issued a joint statement of support for the Strong Start Initiative, a national public-private partnership to eliminate non-medically indicated elective deliveries before 39 weeks gestation. The statement encourages all hospitals to have a documented plan or policy to reduce or eliminate early elective deliveries. It also suggests posting the policy to the hospital's website and voluntarily reporting early elective delivery data to a Hospital Engagement Network. In addition to AHA, signers include the American Academy of Family Physicians; American Academy of Pediatrics; American College of Nurse Midwives; American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists; Association of Women's Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses; and March of Dimes. The AHA Board of Trustees last year adopted a formal position supporting policies to eliminate early-term, non-medically necessary deliveries, which research has shown can increase health complications for babies. AHA and its Health Research & Educational Trust affiliate are working with the Strong Start initiative to reduce early elective deliveries at hospitals through the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' Partnership for Patients campaign.

Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green are leaving "The Voice" at the end of this season, NBC announced on Monday.

New York University is branching out in Brooklyn.
City officials joined officials from NYU-Poly Friday to mark the opening of the Polytechnic Institute at the MetroTech Center in downtown Brooklyn.
It's a 120,000-square-foot expansion featuring a new state of the art science and educational center.
"We must keep ahead of this race in technology. If we don't, we are then reverted as a country to second and third tier," said Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz.
The expansion is part of the school's long-term plan to add more academic space outside of Greenwich Village.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
If you are seeking a beautiful, peaceful place to find refreshment, Hawaii House of Peace is the place. It's your home away from home for you and your loved ones and friends. Our 3 bedroom 2 bathroom large home will sleep 6 comfortably in the bedrooms, up to 10 including our two futon beds in the living room. And the enclosed in the back patio is a perfect place to enjoy paradise.
This is Rose (owner along with her husband Jason) with our son, pictured here with sweet Auntie Miki. Auntie (the local term of respect for older Hawaiian ladies) will be taking good care of you as you come to stay at Hale Maluhia, the Hawaii House of Peace. Auntie Miki lives in the separate Ohana upstairs, while Jason and Rose are living with their 5 children in Tianjin China.
Auntie Mekela Asejo purchased this house in 2013
In 2005 we came to the Big Island where our 3rd child was born, and fell in love with the amazingly loving people of our local Hawaiian church, and with the beautiful climate and adventures of the east side of the island. Being a bit of nomads without roots living as expats in China with our five children getting older, we decided to purchase a house we could someday call home. Our hearts led us right back to the wonderland of Pahoa in the Puna district of the Big Island...a land of waterfalls and surfing waves, rolling pastureland and flowing lava mountains, and a thousand more adventures. Our prayer is that like us, you will experience the Aloha love of the people of the Big Island, particularly of Auntie Miki and our local Hawaiian brothers and sisters, and you find the House of Peace as healing as it has been for us.
The neighborhood our home is located in is the best in the Puna district in our opinion, and was the primary factor in our choice of this property. It is a beautiful, peaceful, safe residential neighborhood, making you feel right at home on vacation. The house is extremely well built: it is spacious, and built for family fun, with everything you need at your fingertips. The kitchen is packed with all the appliances you could desire for cooking together; the living room is beautiful and relaxing, with a large flatscreen TV; the bedrooms are comfortable and inviting, and the enclosed patio in the back is always flowing with the fresh island breeze, complete with a refrigerator for drinks and relaxing couches and dining table.
Such an awesome family...families. Having the laughter and sound of children in the home was heart lifting. I was glad they did a lot of "adventuring" and made a lot of memories while here on island. They were very clean and respectful of our home. Great help in some of the ideas I voiced to improve our guests stay. I hope to see them again as they were truly a "kamaaina" family with much aloha!
This is a fantastic location to get away and find a peaceful place from which you can get to the best activities on the island. Our House of Peace is in the beautiful, safe, quiet private neighborhood of Hawaiian Shores, just 5 miles from Pahoa where you can find all your shopping and restaurant needs. We are 13 miles from the surfing hot-spot, Isaac Hale Beach Park, which is also just down the road from the famous hot springs Alahanui Park. Only 20 miles from Hilo, our home is a perfect location for a family or a couple who want an affordable, yet real home retreat on the Big Island.

Recently by Robert Wenzel: LBJ Admits Assassination of Diem and Talks of the Consequences
VICE has done some excellent work tracking down other players in the "Mohammed" film. If this was a CIA or Mossad operation using cutouts to distance themselves from the film, they have done an excellent job. You want cutouts to be so flaky that you really can't know for sure why they did anything. This sure fits this crew.
Of course, we all know Nakoula Bassely Nakoula (possibly using the alias Sam Bacile) is a former fraudster. Now VICE introduces us to Robert Alan Brown, who possibly uses the aliases Robert Brownell and Alan B. Robert. And then VICE manages to get an interview with another person involved with the film, Jimmy Israel, who was born Jewish and states that he is now "mostly" Buddhist.
If you are really bored with your life, this article will give you a reason to live another day.
Make your choice, A. the CIA/Mossad is getting good at what they do, or B. these guys are just real fruitcakes. That it gets dubbed into Arabic on 9-11 suggests choice A.

Electronic | Automatic | Motorized | Magnetic Pet Doors
You understand the importance of a pet door but you have stray cats coming around spraying, or you have wild animals that might try to break in for food, or you have a cat--or a baby!-- that you want to keep in while you let the dog out, or your pet is so arthritic or handicapped that he just can't manage his old pet door. Maybe you'd just feel more secure without an unlocked dog door. What to do?
The answer, of course, is to get an electronic pet door - an electronic, magnetic, rfid chip or even motorized dog door or cat door. Pay close attention to measuring for size as always. But also think about power source, spare collar keys, locking mechanism and opening method. They'll all play a role in the success of your choice.

Q. Which type of collar key is best?
A. This is a difficult question to answer because different people have different needs and may not agree on what is "good" and what is "bad". However, we'll take a stab at it. Remember that the features of the pet door you want may be just as or more important than the characteristics of the type of collar key that it uses.
- The Vet-Implanted ID Microchip - The pros for this type of collar key are impressive. Most importantly, there's no collar needed because the collar key is actually the ID chip that your vet implanted under the skin. The absence of the need for a collar has a number of very important advantages. Some cats won't tolerate them. There's always some danger of a cat accidentally getting his collar hung up on a branch or other object which can have disastrous consequences. (Break-away collars avoid that danger but if they break away you've lost both the collar and the collar key possibly trapping the pet outside). In addition, the implanted chip doesn't add to the clutter if you've already got id tags (You DO have an ID Tag, Right?) or a hidden fencing system receiver on the collar. These collar keys and the only ones that are never lost and you don't need to pay for spares "just in case". Finally no batteries required for the collar key (the pet door will need power, though).
On the other hand there are a few disadvantage. As of this writing there are no electronic dog doors or even large-cat sized electronic cat doors that use this type of collar key. Even though, "every" North American chip in use is "covered", it might be wise to check with your vet to be sure you've got one of the right ones and, at the same time, get his assurance that the chip is still at the top of the neck where it belongs and hasn't migrated somewhere else. Finally, installation in a metal door is a hassle because a wood "collar" is needed for the door to keep it separate from the metal.
- The Magnetic Collar Key - There are two types: For the first, the magnet actually pulls a lever inside the cat door which unlocks the door. In this case, the cat door doesn't require any power either and there is no electronic circuitry to corrode or fail. For the second type the magnetic field of the magnet is sensed by the pet door and it unlocks in response. These cat doors require power. In both cases the collar key requires no power and there are no batteries to fail. Spares are relatively less expensive. Magnetic collar keys are waterproof.
On the other hand, the magnets used to pull an inside lever are relatively strong and more likely to pickup debris like nails and bottle caps. Since they're stronger they may exert more pull than is comfortable for a kitten and at least one manufacturer recommends that they not be used until the cat is a little older. At least some manufacturers recommend that installation in a ferrous metal door may require that a wooden collar be built to isolate the pet door from the door. An aluminum door would not present a problem. Finally, a magnet is a magnet. There's no way for the cat door to distinguish among your pets or between your cat and a neighbor cat that happens to also wear a magnet collar key.
- The Ultra-Sonic Collar Key - High frequency sound (much higher than can be heard by your pet) is not affected by sunlight (as were the infra-red type) or by the material that the electronic door is installed in or by the use of any other electronic like hidden fencing. The sensitivity of the microphones can be adjusted to allow the user to control the distance at which the electronic pet door activates.
But, batteries are required so you'll need to check them occasionally. The units are susceptible to damage from water. Even though, there is a water-resistant version, you shouldn't use this for a pet that swims in a lake. Finally, a few (but not all) cat owners have felt that the unit was too large to hang on their cat.
- The Radio Frequency Chip - The PetSafe Smart Door, a popular electronic dog door, uses a chip that emits a radio frequency signal. When the door reads that signal, it unlocks and when it can no longer read the signal it locks again. The collar key can be programmed to emit a unique signal and the door can recognize up to five different keys.
Of course these keys require battery power and, again, some have felt them to be too large for their cats.
- RFID Chip Collar Keys - RFID technology is the latest to make its appearance in the collar key world and appears to have some strong advantages: They require no batteries, they are very durable, some allow programming of the key (similar to a garage door opener) and are waterproof.
While some, like for the Cat Mate Elite series are perfectly appropriate for cats, others are larger and you may not find them suitable for use by your cat. As well, they tend to be on the more expensive side.
Q. Some Electronic Pet Doors Control Access From Outside Only While Others are Control from Both Sides. What Difference Does This Make?
A. In most cases, the outside access control only works just fine. Here are the situations in which access from both directions can be an advantage:
- You want to keep an inside pet (or a child) from going outside in addition to preventing strays and other animals from coming inside.
- You are concerned about raccoons coming in through the pet door. At least some raccoons have figured out that a one-way control electronic pet door can be broken into by hooking the flap with a claw and pulling the flap toward the outside. Then they can come through the opening. No one knows if every raccoon can do this, but they are very clever. Two way control prevents this. We haven't heard yet of this problem with other animals.
Q. Some Electronic Pet Doors are Motorized While Others Require the Pet to Push the Flap After Unlocking. What's the Difference?
- A. Motorized electronic pet doors always control from both directions; non-motorized versions may be either one-way or two-way control.
- A timid, arthritic or injured pet may find it easier to use a motorized version since he doesn't need to learn to push anything; the door simply opens in front of him. This is probably the most significant advantage of a motorized pet door.
- We suspect that the motorized versions may be slightly less able to keep a second pet from following the first out. It's true that the time the flap remains open can be made short. But it's still open to all during that time. The must-push versions present a following pet with a flap swinging toward him as the leader clears the door. That would seem to be more effective deterrent.
- Manual versions may be used in a non-electronic mode; motorized pet doors cannot.
Q. What are the different power requirements of electronic pet doors?
A. As we've seen above, magnetic operated pet doors require no power source at all either for the door or for the collar key. For the remaining electronic pet doors there are three possibilities:
- Some are operated by batteries only
- Some may be operated with AC power thus requiring a nearby wall outlet.
- At least one, the Hi Tech Power Pet, can use AC power with a battery backup in addition to the first two options.
Q. What Other Problems Are There With Electronic Pet Doors?
- A. The first is reliability. If a manual pet door will do the job, it will be more reliable than an electronic one and would usually be a better choice
- Cost. Electronic pet doors, particularly the motorized versions, tend to be more expensive than manual pet doors though there certainly are some high-performance manual pet doors that are quite expensive as well.
- Rigid Flaps. All electronic pet doors incorporate rigid flaps. However, some people prefer a flexible flap for reasons of safety and a softer surface for the pet to push. In this regard it should be noted that the motorized pet doors do not offer the pinching danger of a normal rigid flap.
Q: I want my dog to be able to get in and out of the house, but not my cat, what pet door would work for that?
A: The PetSafe Electronic Smart Door or the Passport Smart System would be a good choice that allows for this type of this functionality.
Q: How big are the collar keys on the different electronic doors?
A: Microchips are collarless, as they are surgically implanted by your vet. RFID tags are small because they don't need batteries. Battery run tags are bulkier because there needs to be space for a battery to be held in there.
Q: What's the biggest electronic pet door you have?
A: The Plexidor Electronic Dog Door is the biggest as far as height. The Petsafe Electronic Smart Door is the biggest as far as width for dog doors.
Q: How is the PetSafe Electronic Smart Door powered?
A: This smart door is powered by "D" cell batteries which are not included. There is no low battery indicator on the Electronic Smart Door so it might be useful to keep a spare collar key nearby for testing purposes.
Q: What is the difference between magnetic pet doors and electronic pet doors?
A: Magnetic doors are manual and require the pet to push on the flap. Also, there is only control of one way. Electronic doors can be manual or motorized, but both require a collar key or microchip to activate.
Q: Is an electronic pet door more reliable than a manual pet door?
A: No, electronic doors are not more reliable than manual pet doors. With electronic doors, there are more issues that are likely to occur. If a manual pet door works for you and your pet, we would definitely recommend the manual door as a better option.
Q: Why would I want a microchip operated pet door?
A: Microchips are implanted in your pet's skin and do not require your pet to wear a collar key around his neck. As a result, there is no risk of your pet getting locked out if the collar is lost. Additionally, there is no extra clutter around the collar.
Q: Can I get a microchip dog door for my Lab?
A: Unfortunately, there are currently no dog doors or large cat doors available that use microchip technology.
Q: Can the large dog doors be programmed to only allow access during parts of the day?
A: Yes, the Passport Pet Access Smart System, High Tech Power Pet Door (connect to timer), and Plexidor Electronic Doors can all be programmed to allow access during certain parts of the day.
Q: What are the advantages to having an electronic pet door?
A: An electronic pet door allows you to have control over which pets are able to go in and out of your home, while also keeping wild animals or stray animals out of your home.
Q: What are the disadvantages of having an electronic pet door?
A: The first disadvantage is reliability. If a manual pet door will do the job, then we usually will recommend it over an electronic door. Second, the cost of electronic pet doors can be very expensive, especially the motorized versions. Thirdly, all electronic pet doors have rigid flaps. Some people prefer a flexible flap over a rigid one for safety reasons or pet preference.
Q: Do magnetic locking pet doors require power?
A: Magnetic locking pet doors do not require power. However, the Cat Mate 254/256 does require a 9 volt battery.
Q: Which pet doors open automatically?
A: The Plexidor and and High Tech automated doors are both motorized and open automatically.
Q: Why would you want the pet door to open without the pet pushing?
A: You would want a motorized door if your pet is timid, injured, or arthritic and unable to push on the flap of the door.
Q: Which dog doors are big enough for normal sized dogs that require pushing to open?
A: The Passport Pet Access Pet Door and the PetSafe Smart Door both are big enough for normal sized dogs that require pushing to open.
Q: Which electronic dog door doesn't require batteries in the collar key?
A: The Plexidor, Passport Pet Access Pet Door, and SureFlap do not require batteries in the collar key.
Q: What does it mean to control access from the outside versus outside & inside?
A: Controlling access from the outside only means that the door can be accessed by pets with collar keys that want to come inside, while the door opens freely to the outside. This is useful in keeping wild or stray animals out. Inside and outside control access means that the door is activated by collar key signaling from both inside and outside. This can keep some pets (without collar keys) indoors and allow specific pets (with collar keys) to have access to the door.
Q: Why would you want something to control both ways?
A: Access from both directions can be an advantage if you want to keep an inside pet (or child) from going outside while also preventing outside animals from getting inside without a collar key.
Q: Which doors control access both ways?
A: The SureFlap Microchip Pet Door, Passport Pet Access Pet Door, PetSafe Smart Door, Plexidor, High Tech, and Cat Mate 305/306 control access both ways.
Q: Which electronic pet doors can be plugged in for power?
A: The Plexidor Electronic Door, High Tech Power Pet Automatic, and Passport Pet Access Pet Door can be plugged in for power.
Q: Which electronic pet doors can have a rechargeable battery?
A: The High Tech Power Pet Door and Passport Pet Access Pet Door both have a rechargeable battery.
Q: Do all electronic pet doors have low battery indicator lights?
A: Not all electronic pet doors have low battery indicator lights. Typically, just the smaller cat doors offer this feature.
Q: Do the rigid flaps of motorized pet doors create a danger for pets or children?
A: The rigid flaps of motorized pet doors do not typically create a danger for pets or children because the flap is retractable and will lift back open if it senses something is in the way.
Q: Do all electronic pet doors have rigid flaps?
A: Yes, all electronic pet doors have rigid flaps.
Q: Which electronic doors have timer controls?
A: Yes the SureFlap Microchip Pet Door and the Cat Mate 305/306 both have timer controls.
Q: Do you have any that are raccoon proof?
A: Yes, the SureFlap, Cat Mate 305/306, Cat Mate 355/356, PetSafe Smart Door, Plexidor, and High Tech Power Pet Door are all raccoon proof.
Q: I need to let the dog out and not my cat, do you have anything that will work?
A: Yes, you will want a door that can be controlled from the inside and outside, so that you can put a collar key on your dog but not your cat. This way, your cat will not be able to access the door to get out. Some examples include the Sureflap Microchip and DualScan door, the High Tech power pet door and the Petsafe Smart Door. However, note that some cats may learn to sit by the door and wait for the dog to activate it so they can run or follow your dog out.
Q: Are there any patio panel doors that control both ways?
A: Yes, the High Tech Power Pet Automatic Pet Door controls both ways.
Q: Is there a microchip door for sliding doors?
A: The Thermo Panel 2e Microchip Patio Panel pet door can be used for sliding doors.
Q: Can I install the Cat Mate 256 in a wall?
A: You can potentially install this door through a wall by installing two pet doors--one on each side of a fabricated wooden tunnel that is long enough so that the flaps don't interfere with each other. Then the outside unit controls access from the outside and the inside unit controls access from the inside.
Q: With the SureFlap can I program both the implanted microchip and the collar key, that way if my cat loses their collar the chip will trigger the door?
A: No, the RFID collar key must be discontinued after chipping your pet because the two signals will confuse the pet door.
Q: Could my contractor hardwire one of the motorized doors?
A: Yes, an electrician could hard wire it inside the wall for a neater look.
Q: Which electronic doors have 4-way locks?
A: The SureFlap, PetSafe Passport Pet Access System, Cat Mate 256/356, Dog Mate 259, and High Tech offer the 4-way locking mechanism.
Q: How is a raccoon breaking into my house, I have a magnetic door that is supposed to only let my pet in!
A: Some raccoons have figured out that a pet door can be broken into by hooking the flap with their claw and pulling the flap toward the outside. Then they can come through the opening. No one knows if every raccoon can do this, but they are very clever.
Q: How many keys do each of the doors come with? (yes we are making you list every door and how many keys, although you only need to do one model one time, so for instance if you do the high tech door for doors there is no need to do it again for the power pet for walls)
Plexidor: 2
High Tech Power Pet Automated Pet Door:1
Thermo Panel 2e Microchip Patio Pet Door: 1
SureFlap Microchip Pet Door: 1
SureFlap Microchip Cat Flap: 0
SureFlap "Through Glass" Installation Kit: 0
Passport Pet Access Pet Door: 1
CatMate 259: 2
DogMate 259: 2
Q: Do you have doors that will work off my cats microchip?
A: Yes, SureFlap and CatMate both make electronic doors that can be activated by your cat's microchip. (Sureflap Microchip Cat Door, Pet Door & SureFlap Dual Scan, also Cat Mate 355/356). The microchip MUST be implanted by a vet. You cannot try to attach a microchip to the pet's existing collar or ID tag as it will not trigger the pet door properly.
Q: Can I install the SureFlap in a metal door?
A: Yes, the SureFlap can be installed in a metal door. However, you'll want to put a border/adaptor around the frame before installation because the metal in the door can interfere with the signal if it is too close to the frame of the pet door. See installation video for more details.
Q: What does it mean to "control both ways?"
A: The option to control both ways allows the door to control which animals can come in or out, can prevent animals such as raccoons from getting inside, as well as keep your pet or even child inside when necessary.

I'm an artist from Columbus, Ohio, and I've been making comics for just over 9 years. My current webcomic is The Hues, which is about magical girls battling an alien invasion.
I've done a lot of illustration work for personal and private clients, and I would love to do spot illustration and comics for corporate clients.
