24.05.07 - By Gary Jones: James Toney (69-6-3, 43 KOs) returns to the ring tonight for a 10-round tune-up bout against Danny Batchelder (25-4-1, 12 KOs) at the HP pavilion in San Jose, California. Toney, 38, always one to struggle with keeping his weight down, is coming into the bout at 229 lbs, slightly lighter than usual, but a far cry from the 160 lbs he fought at while campaigning as a talented middleweight fighter 15-years ago, while in his prime. Since then, Toney has eaten his way out of one weight class after another, though not without winning titles in the middleweight, super middleweight, light heavyweight and cruiserweight divisions. He almost had a major heavyweight title, winning a 12-round decision over John Ruiz for the WBA heavyweight title in April 2005, but the fight was ruled a no contest after Toney tested positive afterwards for steroids.
Unfortunately, its been pretty much downhill for Toney since then, with him winning only once in the past two years, while losing twice and fighting to a draw. In fact, he's lost his last two fights going into his bout with Batchelder, each against Samuel Peter. Before that, Toney fought to a draw with Hasim Rahman, though many people consider this a loss for Toney as well, as he was pretty thoroughly handled by the bigger Rahman for most of the bout.
Despite all this, Toney still firmly believes that hes not only capable of winning another heavyweight title, but also unifying the titles which hes stated as one of his goals before he retires. Is Toney deluded or does he know something that we don't know? At this point, if he has something that he's holding back, he'd better start showing it soon because his time and chances are quickly running out with his age now nearing 40-years-old. Not too many heavyweight fighters have been able to successfully fight into their forties, and the ones that have - George Foreman Joe Walcott - were naturally big men with a lot of power. The same can't be said about the rather diminutive Toney, who has neither power or size in the heavyweight division. It wasn't always that way when he fought at his natural weight, the middleweight division, but that's far back in the rear view mirror.
With a win over Bachelder, Toney is hoping to line up a fight with Wladimir Klitschko, the IBF heavyweight champion, later on in 2007. It remains to be seen, however, whether Wladimir will elect to defend his title against Toney, given his marginal track record in the past two years. That said, the fight would likely be mildly entertaining, much more than Klitschkos recent defense against Ray Austin. If nothing else, the fight would be interesting as a side show attraction, pitting the 59 Toney against a near giant Klitschko, who at 66, would have a huge size advantage going into the bout, not to mention the youth and superior power. Still, stranger things have happened, and Toney, with all his ring expertise, might have a chance at pulling off a minor miracle and winning such a bout. Bigger miracle, it would seem obvious, would be for Wladimir to decide on fighting Toney in the first place, given Toney's poor showings against Rahman and Peter. Certainly, a win over a journeyman like Batchelder, isn't going to undo the damage from the losses and suddenly elevate Toney any higher. For that to happen, Toney will have to beat someone much better, surely a contender or two. At this point, it's not looking like Toney, 38, is moving in that direction and showing the kind of urgency that he needs to given his advanced age.
As for tonights bout with Batchelder, dont expect him to last for long against Toney, no matter what kind of shape James comes into the fight. Batchelder has lost three out of his last four bouts, losing decisions to Brian Minto, Matt Godfrey, and stopped by Alexander Dimitrenko since 2006. No shame in that, but the one-sided nature of the losses would indicate more trouble against Toney, who is arguably a more talented fighter than all of them put together. This fight is more a tuneup bout, one to keep Toneys skills from rusting before another big heavyweight bout, which if everything goes as expected, will be Klitschko or one of the other heavyweight champions.

According to a report into the state of hospital care and junior doctor training published last week by the Royal College of Surgeons, European rules that govern their working hours are actually putting patients at risk. But most of us knew this already.
The report found that, due to the European Working Time Directive (EWTD), junior doctors today have 128 fewer days of experience when they qualify as specialists. Introduced in 1993, the directive was originally intended to prevent long-distance lorry drivers from falling asleep at the wheel, but it has since been applied to doctors with the intention of improving safety and patient care. It ensures that all junior doctors – classified as any doctor in training below the grade of consultant – do not work more than 48 hours a week over a 26-week period. Since 2009, they may not work continuously for more than 13 hours and must have a break every six hours.
On the face of it, this seems sensible. No one wants to go back to the dark days when juniors routinely worked 90 hours a week. But the change has had unintended consequences.
The rigidity of the rules means doctors are expected to down tools the minute they have worked their allotted hours. The New Deal – an agreement between the Department of Health and the British Medical Association – has instituted punitive measures against hospital trusts that fail to comply with the EWTD. It requires absolute compliance; if one doctor works half an hour over the stipulated time, the entire rota is deemed to have been "breached" and severe financial penalties will be incurred. The report has found that many trusts have cancelled clinics or appointments as no doctors were available to run them.
While junior doctors are allowed to opt out of the EWTD, many trusts discourage the practice because they are reluctant to pay overtime. Instead, there is implicit pressure on junior staff from senior doctors and management to lie on their working hours forms. We all know that if we tell the truth, the trust will be fined, its debts will increase and redundancies will follow or services will be reduced. The loser is always patient care.
Meanwhile, there is resentment among hospital doctors who are not being paid for the work they do, staying behind long after they should have gone home.
Even more worrying is how the EWTD has fundamentally altered the way medical care is delivered. There has been a cataclysmic "decoupling" of the junior workforce from the seniors.
Prior to the EWTD, junior doctors were attached to a team typically comprising a newly qualified doctor, a senior house officer, a registrar and a consultant. This "firm", as it was known, was a tried-and-tested way of delivering care. The most junior members learnt from the registrar who, in turn, learnt from the consultant. Roles and responsibilities were clear and there was a sense of belonging, which ensured that juniors would follow their patient from the moment they were admitted or seen in clinic to the point of discharge. There were clear lines of accountability.
But juniors are no longer routinely attached to a particular consultant or team; rather, they "float" between teams, providing cover ad hoc. Both patient and doctor are casualties in this. Junior staff are expected to perform their jobs with no understanding of how their actions impact on wellbeing. There is no appreciation of cause and effect, and no true ownership of the work done.
It is common for patients never to see the same doctor more than once. They often feel confused, isolated and scared at the lack of continuity, having to explain the same problem to every new doctor. Things slip through the net. It is not safe.
Doctors don't want to work like this. We feel like automatons clocking on and off. The EWTD destroys any sense of vocation in our work and removes the opportunity to learn from our seniors, to develop a relationship with them and their patients.
It is only right that junior doctors are freed to provide the care that their patients deserve and that they are paid for the work that they do.
Sue Townsend, pictured in 1992
Sue Townsend, the author of The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13¾, died last Thursday at the age of 68, after suffering a stroke.
Her gentle, insightful and witty prose inspired a generation of writers, myself included. I have fond memories of reading her books as a teenager on holiday in Eastbourne, and years later re-read them before writing my first book, a diary of the first year of being a junior doctor.
Jeremy Hunt, the Health Secretary, was criticised earlier this month for being a "control freak" regarding the NHS. Anonymous senior managers have accused him of keeping too close an eye on the health service.
Why on earth is this seen as a bad thing? I think he should be congratulated. Thank goodness someone is concerned about what is happening to the NHS.
Hunt upset certain hospital chiefs when he telephoned several of them to ask why their hospitals had failed to reach the NHS target for at least 95 per cent of A&E patients to be seen within four hours. I'm pleased that he is tackling the question that many patients want answered.
The NHS Reform Bill, which came into force last year, severed the link between politicians and the NHS, removing the Secretary of State's direct responsibility; it is now supposed to be run by the Department of Health at arm's length. This was an enormous mistake. Since its creation, the NHS had operated on a principle outlined by its creator, Aneurin Bevan, that if a bedpan is dropped in a hospital corridor, the noise should reverberate in Whitehall.
I want someone voted in by the public to be responsible for what happens in the NHS, not an unelected group of faceless, unaccountable bureaucrats.

Gaylor awarded supercritical fluids/Green Chemistry educational equipment grant
Dr. Michael Gaylor, assistant professor of chemistry at Dakota State University, was recently awarded a supercritical fluids/Green Chemistry educational equipment grant valued at $35,000. The grant was awarded by Applied Separations Inc., an industry leader in environmentally friendly supercritical fluid technologies, in recognition of his achievements in developing supercritical fluid- and Green chemistry-based curricula at DSU.
"This is a distinguished accolade for our program and for DSU. It is also an exciting state-of-the-art educational equipment award that will greatly aid my continued efforts to bring our chemistry program into the 21st century by transforming it from one based on hazardous materials usage to one firmly grounded in modular technologies and Green chemistry and supercritical fluid principles and practices. Moreover, my students will benefit greatly from receiving hands-on experiences with lab technology used in top research and industry laboratories the world over," said Dr. Gaylor.
What is a supercritical fluid you ask? It is any substance (such as the carbon dioxide gas that we exhale and emit from our automobiles) that exists beyond its so-called critical temperature and pressure. Under these conditions, the substance is no longer distinguishable as a gas or a liquid, but instead becomes a peculiar hybrid state of matter possessing the desirable properties of both phases of matter.
For chemists, supercritical fluids are invaluable tools in that they can easily diffuse through solid materials just like a gas, while simultaneously effectively dissolving desired materials just like a liquid solvent. Perhaps the most recognizable examples of the importance of supercritical fluids in contemporary society is the large-scale industrial use of supercritical carbon dioxide to safely decaffeinate coffees and teas, and to remove fats from "low fat" foods. Such food manufacturing processes have historically relied on enormous volumes of toxic liquid solvents, which then must be disposed of as hazardous waste, thereby compromising human and environmental health.
As the study and practice of chemistry has evolved to rely on a plethora of similarly hazardous materials, use of supercritical fluids in teaching and research labs is becoming a priority for institutions seeking to minimize safety risks (especially for students) and waste generation. Supercritical carbon dioxide has become particularly popular in recent years, as it is non-toxic, has an easily attainable critical temperature and pressure, and new technologies now make it possible to recycle this gas virtually endlessly. In so doing, it is actually possible to operate one's carbon emission budgets in the black.
Dr. Gaylor was recently invited to attend the American Chemical Society's 18th Annual Green Chemistry and Engineering Conference in Bethesda Maryland as an honored guest to receive the award in person during the keynote address ceremony.

The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
This cosmic orange magnet from Diamond Tech is the perfect "out of this world" accessory for your fridge! It makes a great gift and a unique decoration for any kitchen.
- Magnet
- 1 piece Fuseworks™ Clear Sheet Glass
- Fuseworks™ Milliefiori slices
- Fuseworks™ Dichroic small scraps, frit and/or confetti
- Fuseworks™ Kiln Paper
- Fuseworks™ Microwave Kiln
- E6000® or other glass glue
- Fuseworks™ Glass Cutter
- Microwave - 1100 Watt
- Using a glass cutter, cut a 1" X 1 1/2"piece of clear sheet glass.
- Cut a 2" X 2" piece of kiln paper. Remove the lid from the Fuseworks™ Kiln. Place the kiln paper on the kiln base. Kiln paper should only be used for one firing.
- Place the 1" X 1 1/2" clear glass on the kiln paper. Sprinkle with frit and small bits of confetti, leaving some of the clear glass showing. Randomly place several small pieces of scrap dichroic on top as the final layer.
- Carefully set the base with glass inside the microwave. Cover kiln base and glass with kiln lid.
- Fuse* at 70% power for 2 minutes. Change the power to 100% and fuse at 1 minute 40 seconds. *Every microwave oven and kiln will vary. You will need to test and log what time will be suited for your combination. After time is up, open microwave and, using Hot Mitts, carefully lift the lid enough to inspect the fusing process. Add additional time in 30 second increments until desired results are achieved. Remove kiln from microwave using the Hot Mitts and place on a heat resistant surface. Cool the kiln on a heat resistant surface for at least 40 minutes with the lid on. Removing the lid or peeking under the lid during the cooling will result in your piece cracking. Glass remains hot for a long time and should be handled with great caution.
- Cool your glass and kiln completely, approximately 30-40 minutes.
- After your pieces are completely cooled, adhere a magnet to the back of the fused piece using a glass adhesive such as E6000®. Allow the adhesive to dry according to glue manufacturer direction.
Hot Tips:
- Never throw away your small scraps of fusing glass, use scraps to embellish other fused glass projects.
- For better visability, store scraps in a clear container.
- Use tweezers to pick up scraps and glass pieces.

Thoughts on Extreme Couponing
Posted: Wednesday, Jun. 08, 2011
Emily Achenbaum Harris
Hi, I'm Emily and this is my blog about career-questioning, minimalism-seeking, gardening, earth-saving, pregnancy, parenthood, and my pathological ability to make the same mistakes over and over again. See more at littlehousesouthernprairie. wordpress.com.
I was watching an episode last week and S.O.meone, after catching about 30 seconds of it, said Oh no, youre not going to start doing that, right?Right.But Im still kind of riveted.On one hand, these people are buying piles and piles of total shit. Soda, pseudo-sports drinks, etc. And a lot of the rest seems to be stuff I wouldnt buy brands that have excessive plastic packaging or are full of chemicals; Im not a perfect-all-the-time green consumer, but I have yet to see a product we regularly use on the show or something Id be tempted to try because the deal is so amazing.Amy Dacyczyn (author of The Tightwad Gazette and my favorite frugality expert) says that coupons are almost always for things you dont truly need and are designed to get you to pay more overall. (Which doesnt mean I dont use coupons. Theres nothing I truly need at Michaels, but that aint keeping me and my coupon away from a little fall decor).But heres where the riveted part comes in. These people are saving so much money. So much that when I watch I start to forget theyre saving money on shit I dont want; I just see the savings. The time they put in is a full-time job and I would never do that, but I also know that being frugal and getting deals often takes a time investment, and Im not put off by that time investment. And so I keep watching, feeling like there must be some part of that show that I can apply to my own life.What do you think? Are there lessons for the frugal-but-eco-minded in Extreme Couponing?Comment on Emily's blog post: Little House on the Southern Prairie

Have questions about flooring?
Pine flooring is made of soft wood that increases in beauty as it ages. While not as popular in Chicago IL as it was 100 years ago, pine is an affordable option that can add a unique distressed look to your home or office.
If you like pine flooring but want to control the amount of distress your floor receives, applying a sealer may help. You can also find many beautiful laminate options that mix the beauty of pine with the strength and durability of modern laminate flooring.
Southern yellow pine has warm butterscotch hues that add a unique touch to any room. White pine, another popular choice, is reminiscent of Early American homes. It's the perfect complement to historic settings with old-fashioned décor.
Pine flooring is usually sold unfinished. This lets you choose how light or dark to stain it. Because it's so soft, installing pine flooring can be easier than hardwood. It's still a job best left to the professionals, however. Let the experts at Floor Coverings International in Fremont help you find maple hardwood flooring that's just right for you and your home. Contact us today to schedule your free in-home estimate.

GPS versus Radio-Tracking: pros and cons for finding cats
GPS trackers rely on satellite signals and can remotely tell you where you cat is located as long as it can pick up a signal. The location can often be transmitted to your computer or cell phone. The main drawback to GPS trackers is that they may not be able to transmit a signal if your cat is in a building or underground or sometimes even if the sky is heavily overcast. However, some GPS trackers also use cellular signals and this can increase reliability depending on coverage. These are called A-GPS or Assisted GPS. There is usually some error in the transmitted location and you will probably have to physically search an area to find out exactly where your cat is located. GPS trackers also require payment of a monthly service fee or prepay program similar to cell phones.
There are numerous dog GPS trackers but most are too heavy for a cat. The recommended maximum weight for a cat to carry is 40 grams or approximately 1.5 ounces. There are several GPS trackers designed for cats that are available in the US, but even these are generally only recommended for cats weighing 10 lbs or more. These include the GPS CatTrack Live (TK201) available from Mr. Lee's CatTrack and Tagg the Pet Tracker. PawTrax, which offers a pre-payment plan rather than a monthly fee, may now be available for purchase in the US. Email email@example.com for more information.
With a radio-tracking device, your cat wears a small transmitter on his/her collar, and you have to walk around with a receiver to try and locate the cat. The basic principal is that the receiver will beep louder the closer you get to your cat. Radio-trackers can transmit signals through buildings, so you can still locate your cat if s/he was trapped in a shed or basement. The main drawback to radio-collars is that they usually have a limited range, generally anywhere from 100 feet to 1 mile depending on the strength of the signal and the terrain you are searching. The signal will travel much farther in open areas compared to wooded areas or through buildings. There are currently two radio-tracking collars available in the US: the Loc8tor Pet and the LoCATor. The Loc8tor Pet costs around $100 (for 2 transmitters and 1 receiver) and has a maximum range of 100-400 feet. The LoCATor costs $50 per radio-collar and $250 for the receiver and antenna, and it has a maximum signal range of 600 feet (city) to 1 mile (open country). To operate the LoCATor you are also legally required to obtain an Amateur Radio Operators license from the FCC.
I think that the radio-tracker is generally the better option for finding lost cats for several reasons.
- Most lost cats do not travel more than a mile or two from home (and many are found within 1/4 mile).
- Lost cats have a greater tendency to get lost and trapped within their own homes or outside in sheds, garages, and basements.
- Cats are excellent hiders and a lost cat will frequently run and hide even from their owners. A radio-tracker allows you to track down the exact location of your cat while a GPS tracker will just give you a general area.
- Radio-trackers are much smaller than GPS trackers and can easily be attached to a break-away cat collar. Also if your cat loses their collar, you should still be able to locate the collar and tracking transmitter.
See also my review of the Loc8tor Pet.
8 Responses to "GPS versus Radio-Tracking: pros and cons for finding cats"
I just wanted to make it clear that I currently only have hands-on experience with the Loc8tor Pet. However, I have also previously worked on several wildlife research projects using radio-telemetry to track wolves, bears, coyotes, and foxes. Not surprisingly, I am a little biased towards radio-tracking. I do have experience using GPS locators and GPS loggers, but not any of the ones designed for finding lost pets. I plan to acquire and test more GPS and radio-tracking devices in the future.
As a wildlife biologist who used radio telemetry for many years for everything from spotted owls, to mountain goats, and Canada lynx….here is one thing to remember. You must turn the signal down until it is barely audible…then as you walk around it will either get louder or disappear. You know you're heading the right way if it gets louder and louder which is why we turn it down so low in the beginning. It's easier to detect the sound disappearing entirely or getting slightly louder if it's kept at a very low volume…that way the only way it will get perceptibly louder is if you are getting closer to the animal. Also, there are a LOT of things that can interfere, buildings made of concrete, canyon walls, hills, etc. The signal can "bounce' off of canyon walls and confuse the user. We often had to use helicopters/small aircraft which are, of course, not an option for cat owners…but we used them to prevent the "bounce" issue. You want a collar that has the closest possible accuracy, for example…down to 100 feet versus 200 feet. They're a great tool, but still not infallible.
C. Lee
There are some other GPS pet devices:
– http://www.pawtrack.com/
– http://www.catgpstracking.com/
– http://www.mr-lee-catcam.de/ct_index.htm
– http://www.pettracker.com/
Well, is it possible then to have BOTH! mount the radio-tracking device onto the GPS collar. If your cat is worth its life, then why not have both. That way you are sure to locate the exact venue and find your cat without much difficulty.
I think they might have those kinds of collars here: http://www.trainingcollarstore.com

Recipe by ZEPHYRAZURE
"This starter is definitely my favorite active starter in my kitchen. It's working better than my white flour starter and yeast experiment."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale

Watch video tips and tricks
1/2 teaspoon
1/2 cup
whole wheat flour
1/2 cup
non-chlorinated water (such as bottled)
This starter works well with nature occuring yeast. It does not use store bought yeast. It produces a great bread as long as you baby the starter like it states in the directions.
Followed instructions and starter produced a heavy loaf that did not rise. Tried a different recipe that included throwing out half and "feeding" for several days and it worked much better.
9 Ratings
Just found this recipe but wondered if yeast is not used or was it omitted
The whole wheat starter is great. No store bought yeast needed. Believe it or not, the stuff floating around in the air is enough to produce a great sour dough starter and, according to sour dough aficionados, the only way to make "real" sour dough. Just take care of the yeast, no metal, anywhere from 60 to 80 degrees F temp is the best for beginning the starter. If it is too hot you can get weird things growing, too cold, well it just takes a while to get going. Follow the directions and feed your starter. Store in the refrigerator once it is going and feed every week to keep it alive.
this is wonderful. followed it exactly except I was out of honey so had to add a pinch of sugar. I can't believe it is as seasoned as it tastes in just a week and a half. Just made my first loaf of bread with it and it came out perfect. used the 'plain and simple sourdough bread' from this site. kneaded by hand, 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes in the oven and it is perfect. truly a great starter. love the wild sour taste.
I'm gonna give this a try. I mixed it all together and I will update my review after a couple weeks. I was looking for a starter that was natural yeast and this sounded like it was it. Does anyone know if there is a way to substitute starter in all recipes that call for yeast?UPDATE: I made sourdough bread and it is awesome. Now time to try pancakes, rolls... etc..... Thank you for posting this great recipe.
amazing. super easy, lots of light delicious whole grain bread! i added a few organic unwashed grapes to the starter for a day or two then took them out. i use sprouted spelt flour and it's delicious. i often make it with raisins and cinnamon also. thank you so much!! after reading michael pollan's recipe, i'm so happy to have found yours first or i would have been too intimidated.
I made this a couple of weeks ago but used half quantities throughout so as not to end up with so much starter. It worked perfectly and has produced super bread. No yeast is needed for this starter or for the bread. This is so good I shall be using it and passing it on to friends as well. Thank you.

I'd like to join a team that practices and learns together not just play ranked games
We could maybe even play Go4LoL or z33ks!
Can you play top?
I have a 1600 elo team looking for top and jungles, but we have a few junglers to try out, and no tops.
... If you're still looking!

Charlotte-area female entrepreneurs looking to grow their businesses will have greater access to capital, mentoring and networking thanks to a new partnership between billionaire fashion designer Tory Burch and Bank of America.
Through the effort, known as Elizabeth Street Capital, Bank of America is giving a total of $10 million for loans to female entrepreneurs – first in Charlotte and five other cities, then in other places over the next two years.
Bank of America and the New York-based Tory Burch Foundation, a nonprofit Burch launched in 2009 to support economic empowerment of women, will split the additional $2million in operating costs.
Named for the New York street where Burch started her first boutique, Elizabeth Street Capital began Jan. 27and is rolling out in Charlotte, New York, San Francisco, Boston, Philadelphia and Las Vegas.
The loans will be distributed through nonprofit entrepreneurial loan centers, also known as community development financial institutions. In Charlotte, Self-Help Credit Union at 926 Elizabeth Ave. is the participating center.
In the Charlotte-Gastonia region, about 45,000 of the total 154,000 businesses were women-owned, said Bob Schall, president of Self-Help Ventures Fund, referencing a 2007 U.S. Census Bureau survey of business owners.
To find out more about the initiative and how female entrepreneurs can get involved, ShopTalk spoke with Bank of America executive Andrew Plepler, who is overseeing the bank's role in the new program.
Here are excerpts:
Q. What kind of female-owned businesses can take advantage of this initiative?
The general framework is for established businesses that have been operating for about two years and are looking to expand ... whether it's opening another store or hiring a couple more workers. But (Self-Help) will be the ultimate monitor of who they make loans to. They do allow for startups.
Q. How big are the loans?
Each community development financial institution will set precise limits, but what you're looking at here are loans in the $25,000 to $50,000 (range).
Q. How much of the $10 million will come to Charlotte over the next two years?
A. That will be a conversation we have with each individual community development financial institution, based on what they see as the demand. We don't look at this as two years and we're done. If we've generated the demand we hope to generate and these women entrepreneurs are taking out these loans and repaying them, then we intend to recirculate this capital for the program. We hope it will be successful and grow.
Q. What else can loan recipients expect to get out of the program?
Mentoring is a big piece of the program, and a big piece of the Tory Burch Foundation mission. All of the launch events for various cities are mentoring events where established, successful women entrepreneurs sit down with (less experienced) entrepreneurs and give advice, counsel, mentoring and coaching on business plans, marketing, how to think about risk, how to think about HR. A launch event (in Charlotte) is being scheduled.
Q. So why are you partnering with nonprofit financial institutions like Self-Help instead of just offering that funding through the bank?
A. The nonprofit partner(s) here have real expertise in what we call higher-risk small-business lending. (Businesses) will get a kind of customized consulting from the community development financial institution that they may not get at a (traditional bank), where they may simply be declined. You will have more of an ongoing dialogue. (Self-Help) offers a lot of hands-on and personal interactions with women.

Spy Shots: Nip/Tuck'd Ford S-Max spotted in the Swiss mountains
According to the U.K. publication, the S-Max's interior is likely to stay the same, meaning that buyers will once again get a choice of five- or seven-seat configurations. The exterior is clearly being tweaked with a new front fascia and grille, as well as reconfigured taillamps featuring LED illumination. Given that the production S-Max first debuted at the Geneva Motor Show back in 2006, this seems like as opportune a time as any to refresh the award-winning MPV.
The engine lineup is expected to remain unaltered, meaning buyers can expect a range of gas and diesel four- and five-cylinder engines as well as manual and automatic transmission choices.
We've been hearing for years now that the sporty S-Max might cross the Pond... is it finally our turn? And if so, would Americans consider it? Have your say in 'Comments.'
