Stripe goes global, accepting payments in 139 currencies

Stripe said Tuesday that it's now making it even easier for online retailers in the United States and Europe to sell their goods and services around the world by letting them do so in any one of 139 currencies.
That's up from just four currencies previously. (The U.S. and Canadian dollars, British pound and the Euro, for the curious.)
Stripe is participating in the burgeoning mobile payments business, where Square, eBay's PayPal (NASDAQ: EBAY) and YapStone are among those vying to be big winners. The list of major companies eager to grab a piece of the action — or even better, hold onto it — is so long that it would seem easier to list what major companies have no interest in the payments business.
Stripe, processing billions of dollars in payments annually, handles all the necessary currency conversions and deposits the sales proceeds daily into the seller's bank account, with each party in the transaction using their home currency. Stripe charges a 2 percent fee on top of market rates for the currency so users can let international customers pay in their local currency. That's in addition to the service fee of 2.9 percent of the purchase price and 30 cents per transaction.
As for Stripe, its easy-to-use service is popular with developers creating website and smartphone apps that want to accept debit and credit cards for payment.
"Stripe's mission is to grow Internet commerce by providing everything an online business needs to accept payments," said Patrick Collison, co-founder and CEO of San Francisco-based Stripe. "Built-in multicurrency support is another example of how Stripe is helping businesses scale faster and more efficiently."

Could the next generation of killer diseases come from the family pet? Scientists say cats and dogs 'large potential source' of diseases that could hit mankind
A new generation of killer diseases set to hit mankind could come from cats and dogs, a study has found.
Scientists say human beings will soon be infecting serious illnesses which have spread from their domestic pets.
report found the risk to humans from animal-based 'emerging diseases'
has increased as pets have moved 'out of the barn' and into homes.
Researchers say that domestic pets such as this Afghan Hound could be the source of the next major diseases to jump between animals and humans.
It says people are
becoming more and more at risk because pets are increasingly part of
their owner's lives - including sleeping in their bedrooms.
report says diseases in humans started by animals will be increasingly
virulent - like canine rabies which kills around 55,000 people in Africa
and Asia each year.
It calls for global monitoring of these 'zoonotic' diseases - spreads from animals to humans - so medicines and vaccines can be developed.
study was led by Michael Day, Professor of Veterinary Pathology in the
School of Veterinary Sciences at the University of Bristol and published
in journal Emerging Infectious Diseases,
He says cats and dogs are a 'large potential source' of the new generation of diseases set to hit mankind.
Professor Day said: 'The number of small companion animals is significant.
example there are an estimated eight to ten million dogs living in up
to 31 per cent of UK homes and in the USA, 72 million dogs in 37 per
cent of homes.
developed countries the relationship between man and dogs and cats has
deepened, with these animals now closely sharing the human indoor
benefits of pet ownership on human health, well-being and development
are unquestionable, but as dogs and cats have moved from the barn, to
the house, to the bedroom, the potential for disease spread to humans
Researchers say the increased number of owners who sleep with their pets has increased the risk of diseases spreading from them to their owners
report was backed by The World Small Animal Veterinary Association
(WSAVA), One Health Committee, the US Centres for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) and the
World Health Organization (WHO).
The report said international health agencies largely monitor diseases spread by livestock - not domestic pets.
Day added: 'For example, the WHO monitors human influenza virus
infection through a network of 111 centres in 83 countries.
'In contrast, there is no such monitoring for the infections that may be transmitted between small companion animals and man.'

Secret MI5 dossier: Hate preacher Abu Qatada issued orders to kill British citizens after 9/11
- Damning new evidence on hate cleric allowed to walk free from jail
- Documents found in Libya ambassador's residence could put him in dock
Hate: Muslim Cleric Abu Qatada, pictured arriving home in London after being released from prison, justified attacks on British civilians, according to the dossier
Hate preacher Abu Qatada issued orders to kill British and American civilians after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, according to a secret MI5 report seen by The Mail on Sunday.
The Security Service document has raised questions as to why Qatada – who the British Government has tried and failed to deport to Jordan – has not been put on trial in the UK for inciting murder.
The report is marked 'secret UK eyes only' and claims Qatada is the author of a fatwa that 'encourages Muslims to take part in jihad against the West'.
The Qatada fatwa also gives religious justification to the 9/11 attacks in the US which killed 2,977 civilians.
The MI5 case file on Qatada was discovered abandoned in the British ambassador's residence in Tripoli by The Mail on Sunday after the toppling of Colonel Gaddafi last year.
It says: 'In arguing the legal case for the attacks of September 11, Abu Qatada advocates fighting jihad against America and the West.
'However, he goes further to include not only the aggressor (the American government), but anybody associated with the aggressor (its civilians) as prospective targets.'
Qatada, who has been described as Osama Bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe, remains on bail in London after Home Secretary Theresa May lost the latest round in her battle to deport him to Jordan, where he is wanted for his alleged roles in two bomb plots against foreigners.
The court ruling – which means the extremist preacher is free to walk the streets of London for six hours a day – prompted Prime Minister David Cameron to say he was 'completely fed up' with the Qatada problem.
MI5 says Qatada issued the fatwa about ten years ago, when he was on the run in the UK from MI5 and counter-terrorism police trying to detain him under the Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001.
If the document had been published in this country, Qatada could be prosecuted for incitement to murder.
Last night politicians involved in the long-running case and senior lawyers said they had not been told of the fatwa and called for Qatada to be prosecuted here.
Jihad: The documents found in the ambassador's Tripoli residence. Qatada justifies attacks on civilians in nations allied to America
Abandoned: The documents were found in the ambassador's residence in Tripoli
Ken Macdonald QC, the former director of public prosecutions, said of the fatwa: 'You need to establish that he actually said those words.
'If he did say those words then you are possibly looking into an investigation for incitement to murder.'
Labour MP Keith Vaz, the chairman of the home affairs select committee, said: 'If Qatada has committed a crime then he should be prosecuted here.
'I think this fatwa needs to be looked at to see if he has broken the law here. I am appalled by this.'
Labour MP Keith Vaz says he is 'appalled' by the documents but believes Qatada should be tried in Jordan
And one senior prosecution lawyer said that it was important to establish whether MI5 had shared this intelligence with the Crown Prosecution Service to properly consider a prosecution in this country.
MI5 says the fatwa was issued after Qatada's infamous decree in 1995, where he gave religious authority to the killing of women and children in Algeria by Islamists during the civil war there.
That fatwa was used by the Algerian terrorist group, the GIA, to slaughter thousands of civilians, including women and children, say experts.
The MI5 document says Qatada was linked to the Hamburg terror cell who went on to commit the 9/11 terrorist atrocities.
The dossier says 18 video tapes of Qatada's sermons were found in the Hamburg flat used by three of the hijackers, including ring-leader Mohammed Atta.
The so-called shoe bomber Richard Reid – who tried to blow up a transatlantic airliner – was also a follower of Qatada, says the document.
Last night Mr Vaz said: 'I still believe that the best place for him to be tried is Jordan.
'I think the Home Secretary needs to go to Jordan and ask the King to make that change in law that prevents Qatada from being deported. It is better for him to be in Jordan than be walking around in Wembley.'
Qatada was released on bail last week subject to a 16-hour-a-day curfew and other restrictions.
The Special Immigration Appeals Commission, which heard the case, said Mrs May had failed to satisfy the court that Qatada would be given a fair trial.
Liberal Democrat peer Lord Carlile QC, who was the previous Government watchdog on counter-terrorism, said: 'I deplore this fatwa. I regard Abu Qatada as an extremely undesirable resident in the United Kingdom, but we have to apply the law.'
He added that the fatwa alone may not be enough to prosecute Qatada in the UK.
Pledge: Home Secretary Theresa May has vowed to send the cleric to Jordan to face trial
The Crown Prosecution Service said it was unable to comment on the alleged fatwa.
A senior Whitehall source said that all information relating to Qatada had been frequently reviewed by police to see whether it was possible to prosecute him.
The US State Department refused to comment about whether it had considered extraditing Qatada over allegations that he had incited the murder of American citizens.
Last year The Mail on Sunday found other documents abandoned in the ambassador's residence in Tripoli which revealed that Labour had lied over the Lockerbie disaster and had kept Libyan dissidents under house arrest in the UK at the request of Gaddafi.

First Lady Margaret Kenyatta launches campaign to save elephantsUpdated Saturday, July 27th 2013 at 00:00 GMT +3
By PSCU
Nairobi, Kenya: First Lady Margaret Kenyatta Friday night launched an anti-poaching campaign dubbed "Hands off our Elephants" whose main objective is to educate Kenyans and the world on the need to conserve the elephant for posterity.
She also launched the Kenya premier screening of a documentary "Battle for the Elephants", a new film which exposes the brutal ivory trade and its effect on Africa and Kenya's elephant populations.
Speaking during the campaign launch at a Nairobi hotel, the First Lady called on Kenyans and friends of Kenya to take up their responsibility in stopping poaching so as to secure a Kenya where the elephants roam
She emphasised that elephants and wildlife are the country's future, a gift from God that should be our priority to preserve, enjoy and love. She added that elephants are also a major tourist attraction to Kenya. Through tourism, she said, the Government earns revenues totaling to Sh 120 billion annually which is the equivalent of four
Thika Super Highways.
Additionally, the Margaret said ivory trade threatened over 300,000 jobs in the country with millions of other direct and indirect beneficiaries from tourism being affected.
She regretted the slaughter of 183 elephants by poachers by July this year alone which has reduced their population in the country to approximately 30,000.
She said, "The statistics are alarming! Currently, our elephant population in Kenya has reduced to stand at approximately 30,000. Note that over 183 elephants have been slaughtered this year. And we are only
in July!"
She added, "How can we stand by while one of the world's most amazing species is driven to extinction? This is a recipe for instability and poverty, and the very stability of our beloved nation will be threatened".
The First Lady commended KWS for the amazing work they are doing, directly or indirectly to fight poachers at the frontline. She also singled out for praise, the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) and partners who have just secured a critical land corridor for elephants in Amboseli.
She received 600 letters from school children to the President to support the anti-poaching campaign and acknowledged the role played by communities in Northern Kenya for assisting in the arrest of poachers. She lauded Jim Nyamu who recently just completed his 1,500 Km walk to raise awareness about conservation of the elephant at the grassroots.
Cabinet Secretary Prof Judy Wakhungu, conservationists Dr Richard Leakey, Dr Paulu Kahumbu and film maker John Heminway urged Kenyans to join hands in the campaign against poaching and conserve elephants as a national heritage.

I have AVG free on two laptops and one desktop and the updates are fine using Firefox.
Can I suggest that you try to download the update again and then if the same problem occurs:-
Open IE Tools tab > Internet Options > restore Adanced Settings and Reset Internet Explorer settings. Restart IE.
Alternatively use another browser to update.

Axis-Shield resists new Alere takeover attempt
UK-based diagnostics company Axis-Shield has urged shareholders to resist a fresh takeover attempt by US rival Alere.
In a statement today, Alere repeated its offer to Axis-Shield's shareholders of 460 pence per share, which was formally made on 5 August. The offer, rejected by the Axis-Shield board, values the business at £230 million.
Alere announced today that it is lowering the threshold of its bid, which had been set at 90% of shareholder acceptance. The company said it now required more than 50% of voting rights, giving it the option of becoming a majority shareholder in Axis-Shield.
The US company also warned that if its offer were to lapse by a deadline of 10 October, "there is a strong possibility that Axis-Shield's share price would fall significantly below its current share price, particularly as no other potential bidder has announced its interest publicly".
Alere said it was also looking at "alternative acquisitions, particularly in light of current valuations and market conditions", and that it didn't necessarily have to acquire Axis-Shield in order to achieve its "strategic objectives".
In response, Axis-Shield's board said it was "disappointed" that Alere had not taken notice of the "firm rebuttal" from shareholders to its offer, which it said was clear by the less than 1% level of acceptances that was disclosed in an Alere announcement on 16 September.
"The board has been more than willing to engage with Alere if Alere were to put a proposal to the board that fairly reflected the fundamental value of Axis-Shield. To date, no such proposal has been received from Alere," said an Axis-Shield statement.
"The company has made excellent progress in the first half of the year and is on track to deliver for the second half of the year. The company believes that Alere is making a highly opportunistic offer in order to try and acquire Axis-Shield on the cheap."
The 460 pence per share offer price represents a premium of 37% on the closing share price of 335 pence on 5 July 2011 – the last business day before Alere revealed it was considering an approach.

Swine flu does what the Nazis couldn't: close Eton
Friday 29 May 2009
Throughout the Second World War Eton College was adamant it would not close its doors as a result of any threat from the Germans. It would not, its then headmaster Claude Elliot said, countenance such a lack of defiance.
Indeed, nobody yesterday could recall a time in living memory when the 569-year-old school had been forced to shut its doors. That was until it became the latest victim of swine flu. In an email to parents Eton confirmed that a 13-year-old pupil had tested positive for the disease and as a result the school, founded in 1440 by Henry VI, is to remain shut until Sunday week on the advice of health authorities.
The closure comes in the middle of important A-level and GCSE examinations for its pupils and last night staff at the school had to put in place emergency arrangements for boys to sit their exams with the objective of minimising the risk of spreading the infection – but allowing exams to go ahead. The boarding school is asking every exam candidate not displaying symptoms of the disease to report back to the school on the night before their exam.
Their temperature will then be taken and – if they show no symptoms then or the following morning – they will be allowed into classrooms the following morning to sit their exams.
However, it was being privately acknowledged last night that the arrangements could cause problems for some of the parents of boys at the school – because their high powered jobs would take them away from home and they would have made no arrangements for child care.
Andrew Wynn, the school's bursar, said: "The boy has a mild illness and is now recovering at home. The school is currently closed for half term and had been due to re-open on Sunday 31 May. The Health Protection Agency has strongly advised that the school should close in line with national guidance.
"Following discussion with the HPA, the school plans to remain closed until June 7 and boys who are due to sit public examinations will be allowed to return under controlled conditions. The HPA is following up pupils who have been in contact with the boy that tested positive. The objective is to minimise the spread of infection while allowing boys to take their public examinations."
Any pupil exhibiting symptoms of a flu-like illness has been told they should remain at home until they are fully recovered. Parents have been told they will be contacted again if a more prolonged closure of the school is necessary. At present it is planned to reopen on Sunday week – giving pupils an extra week's break.
The school, with fees of around £30,000 a year, has taught the sons of royalty and nurtured several British Prime Ministers over the centuries. The Conservative party leader David Cameron and Mayor of London Boris Johnson are among its former alumni. It also taught Princes William and Harry. It currently has around 1,300 pupils on roll.
The Eton outbreak brought the number of swine flu cases in the UK to more than 200 for the first time yesterday. A further 17 people were diagnosed with the disease. The cases include 13 children and one adult at Welford primary school in Handsworth, Birmingham, which is already linked to 50 cases of the infection.
Two adults in London, one a returning traveller and one linked to a previously confirmed case, and a child in the east of England whose source of infection remains under investigation make up the remainder, the HPA said.
Earlier yesterday, health officials revealed that British scientists have produced a strain of the swine flu virus suitable for vaccine manufacture. The move was described as a "crucial step" towards the large scale production of a vaccine against the disease by the Health Protection Agency.
Sick list: Schools hit hard
* In all, 15 schools have closed as a result of swine flu – most of them reopening after a fortnight.
* Welford Primary School in Birmingham had 63 cases.
* Alleyn's, a private school in south-west London, had 11.
* Hampton, another private school near Twickenham, has three.
* Dolphin School, south London, and South Hampstead girls' school were among the first closures.
* Ravenscraig Primary School and Ladybird Nursery School – both in Greenock – were also closed.

78 per cent of Arsenal fans want Arsene Wenger to replace Wojciech Szczesny with Chelsea star Petr Cech
Published: 30 September 2012
West Bromwich Albion arrived here today looking to emphasise their newly-acquired status as Midlands' football's top dogs – and they very nearly rubbed Aston Villa's noses in it. Leading through Shane Long's 51st-minute goal, it took a late strike from Darren Bent to earn Paul Lambert's team a point.
It was a point that Villa deserved on the basis of their vibrant first-half showing, and came as Bent proved a different kind of point. The England striker began on the bench as Lambert started with Christian Benteke and Gabriel Agbonlahor in attack, but he came on for the former midway through the second period and duly provided a timely reminder of his predatory powers with a close-range finish in the 80th minute.
After Ron Vlaar had nodded on a Barry Bannan corner, Ciaran Clark had a shot blocked and the ball ran to Bent who applied an impeccable finish, sending a cool volley inside the far post.
Bent later told a Sky interviewer he had endured "a difficult couple of weeks", with losing the captaincy and then his starting place, Lambert preferred to focus on the striker's goal. "It was a world-class finish, that is what he does."
The watching England manager, Roy Hodgson, may need some convincing about Bent, who has yet to feature in his squad, but Lambert stressed that "[Bent] has got nothing to prove to me. I know what he can do."
Bent's goal denied Albion a second successive victory at Villa Park, and stopped them climbing to third in the table. As for Villa, they sit 15th, with just one Premier League win so far, but there were more encouraging signs after last Tuesday's 4-2 victory at Manchester City in the Capital One Cup.
Lambert's template seems to be young and hungry and their starting XI featured six players aged 23 or under and just one survivor, Agbonlahor, from this corresponding fixture last term. Villa were bright and positive in the first period, their best work coming from the Australian Brett Holman, roaming dangerously behind the strikers. He nearly provided a spectacular opening goal after 25 minutes, launching a half-volley fiercely goalwards from 30 yards that would have dipped under the crossbar but for an magnificent save by Ben Foster.
Foster thwarted the midfielder again before the break, throwing up a hand to claw away the ball after Holman, bursting forward on to Marc Albrighton's crossfield pass, had seen his strike deflect off Billy Jones.
The Albion goalkeeper had a shaky night against Liverpool last Wednesday but earned the praise of his manager, Steve Clarke, here. "He made one save in the first half off the deflected shot that was unbelievable," said the Scot. Albion had another let-off soon after when Benteke robbed Gareth McAuley out on the touchline, came inside but then shot high over the crossbar.
At that point all Albion had to show for their efforts was an early flurry when Long fluffed a close-range header and referee Anthony Taylor ignored a reasonable penalty shout when Goran Popov's cross came off Albrighton's arm. By half-time, moreover, they had lost two players to injury as captain Chris Brunt and full-back Jones limped off with hamstring and knee problems, to be replaced by Graham Dorrans and Gabriel Tamas.
Yet six minutes after the restart the visitors were in front. Long had just seen a headed goal ruled offside when he struck. It was a goal Villa captain Vlaar will not enjoy revisiting as he got to James Morrison's low cross first but swiped weakly at the ball and simply knocked it on to Long who tapped in.
At the other end Benteke's unhappy afternoon continued when he failed to knock in a loose ball in the six-yard box and before long, on came Bent to make his decisive contribution.
"The response was great, especially after 120 minutes the other night," said Lambert. Either side might have won it after that. West Brom substitute Romelu Lukaku saw a deflected shot shave the far post and also tested Brad Guzan at his near post. In between Bent curled just over.
"The players were disappointed to come to Villa and only get a point," said Clarke, "that speaks volumes for the way the club is moving." Villa are on the right track too on this evidence.
Subs: Aston Villa: N'Zogbia 5 (Albrighton, 66), Bent 6 (Benteke, 68) Bannan (Delph 71).
West Bromwich Albion: Dorrans 5 (Brunt, 39), Tamas 6 (Jones 45), Lukaku 6 (Long, 72). Booked: Aston Villa Delph.

Red Rocks Riot, 1971
Jethro Tull's 1971 show at Red Rocks was almost the last rock show ever held at the venue
In 1971 at early rock show at Red Rocks featuring Jethro Tull, unruly fans turned the venue into a war zone. It started when fans who couldn't get get tickets for the sold-out show decided to climb the hills behind the venue to get in. The police responded with copious amounts of tear gas, and the result was a full-scale riot -- stuff thrown at cops, heads busted, cars tipped, the whole enchilada. Amazingly, the band played throughout the melee, making them the most badass group to ever incorporate a flute player. In the aftermath, the mayor banned rock shows from the venue, a ban that lasted for five years.
If you want to read the full story, try this piece about the show/riot from the LA Free Press or this Rolling Stone piece about the event. And if, by chance, there's a fan out there reading this who was there, by all means weigh below with your comments/recollections. -- Cory Casciato

Redline One-Year Review: 2010 Volkswagen GTI 6-speed
Help us grow so we can bring you more videos! Like us on Facebook @
http://www.Facebook.com/2Redline For years, Volkswagen's GTI seemed to sit
on an un-touchable perch atop most of its direct rivals. Although it lacked
the raw power figures for bragging rights, no other competitor could touch
the VW for its unbeatable combination of sporty performance and everyday
livability. With strong entries from Ford, Honda, Subaru, and Mazda does
the GTI still have what it takes to be considered a class leader? Let's
find out...
Click here for the full editorial review of this vehicle
2010 VW MK6 GTI Night Drive
LEARNING TO DRIVE A STICK I took a spin around the block in my stock 2010
GTI. Fully broken in (3 weeks old and 2,000 miles) and she drives great.
I'm going to do some Exhaust work this
weekend, so I wanted to establish a sound baseline.
the stock Exhaust on my VW MkV GTI is
furious, only you have to practically put a mic inside it to hear.
additionally I threw a mic under the hood to hear the incredible sound of
the turbo and blow off valve, along with
the direct-injection.
I have to admit the speed I achieved at points while driving on this
stretch of road is surprising, but due to the GTI's incredible suspension
and aerodynamic tuning it was just another day in the office. Its tendency
to to understeer during acceleration is a welcome safety net, while some
lift-off oversteer helps the car to rotate around tight corners. at the
same time, it kept its composure 100% of the time even when the road was
less than optimal. what a great ride, and great fun. the only thing I'd
like to change about the car however is the brakes. they're as mushy and
mushy can be, and because of this they do not inspire confidence. maybe
some stainless steel brake lines would help, but there's no question that
my first modifications will be the APR ecu, upgraded brakes, and racing
all I have to do now is find the money to go racing so I can get off public
roads and build a proper race car. in the mean time, gran turismo will
download my gran turismo tuning guide for the iPhone on the iTunes Store.
also to note of the numerous times I shifted during this film, not one was
missed!!! no grinding here, though my clutch smelled like it didn't like it
when I used it to control wheel spin during one of the launches. still, the
car is very tight and smooth for having 30,000 miles on the odometer. I
don't ever want to get rid of it. and these roads are obviously tremendous,
they're the most curvaceous and undulating road I have ever driven. if only
I could get them to pave them, close them down temporarily and establish a
racing/rally circuit, I would be in heaven.

GTI - 2011, MKVI, Autobahn Edition
Update 10/05/2011: A person asked me how I felt about my GTI now that I'm
coming up to a full year of ownership. The following was my response to the
You are correct, I'm coming up on my first year of ownership of my GTI and
I'd be happy to give you my impressions to this point. I've put
approximately 12.5k miles on the car and I've driven it in rain, snow,
excruciating Summer heat, several rounds of autocross and everything in
between. In a nutshell, I still love this car.
First and foremost, I've had zero mechanical problems with my GTI. Not even
the tiniest of issues to report. Hence, I can only conclude from my
experience that the build quality of my GTI is absolutely top notch. I took
the car in for a gratis 6k inspection and 10k servicing and this went
without a hitch. There was a factory software recall which was applied by
the dealer to my GTI which fixed a problem with the keyless entry system
but I'd never experienced the rectified problem in the first place.
My GTI appears to drive today with the same exhilarating quickness as it
did the day I took delivery. The car still handles with a sublime tightness
without a hint of body roll but it also still has the same relatively stiff
suspension to remind you when going over bumps and potholes too. The turbo still has the same explosive power
and I've made very good use of it when driving autocross. The car really
behaves very differently with the traction control disabled (the throttle
response in particular gets much quicker) and I've had a great deal of fun
racing around the cones during competitive events. The GTI is made to be
driven aggressively and this is when the car really shines.
I put Winter wheels (16" alloys with snow tires) on the car last year and
I'll do the same again this year. With the snow tires, the GTI handles more
or less like any other front wheel drive car except for the fact that you
have to attenuate the power a little more carefully when driving in snow.
You can spin your wheels in wet (or dry) conditions somewhat effortlessly
and I'm pretty mindful of that now. Ground clearance is really the only
concern when dealing with the white stuff but I haven't gotten stuck as of
Functionally, the GTI is deceptively large. I can easily fit four adults in
the car without compromise...I'm sure the 2-door model feels different in
this regard. The hatchback and folding rear seats also make for a
surprising amount of cargo space when it's required. Gas mileage around the
city is not that great...maybe 18-20 mpg in my experience. Conversely,
mileage on the highway is astoundingly good...well over 30 mpg. My record
is 36 mpg on a 200 mile drive. All in all, the GTI is amazingly useful in
most real-world situations.
Perhaps the only thing I thing I can point to and wish VW had done better
is the NS-315 navigation/media unit. Everything works fine but I find the
interface a little cumbersome in design and implementation....maybe VW
should have hired Apple to write the car's software because I think it
could have been done better.
All in all, this is one of the best cars I've ever owned and I've had quite
a few. I do miss some of the luxuries of my previous cars, like automatic
climate control but those amenities would ruin the overall theme of the
GTI: fast, fun, high-quality but spartan....very German at it's core. For
the money, I can't see how you can get much more quality & bang for your
buck. While cars like the Mazda 3 Speed are technically faster, they also seriously lack the quality
and refinement of the GTI. To summarize: One year later and this car still
gets 5/5 stars from me...I only wish I could give it six out of five. :)

The Darth Maul Game That Almost Was
$curURL = "http://". $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>
Bespin refugee - April 09, 2014
In 2010, game developer Red Fly, responsible for the Wii version of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2, was tapped to create a Darth Maul game. Later that year, their work was derailed, as the game was reformatted, per Lucas' request, into a 'buddy cop-like experience', pairing Darth Maul with Darth Talon, two characters separated by more than 170 year in the Expanded Universe. This was followed by an attempted buyout by LucasArts, and, finaly, the cancellation of the project around June 2011, Here is a look at what might have been.

Fernando was welcoming and & offered any assistance and information while I was in Madrid.
Были в Мадриде с 11 по 20 марта 2015 года. Квартира расположена просто идеально. С одной стороны пешком можно дойти до всех достопримечательностей : 5 минут до музея королевы Софии, 15-17 минут до бульвара дель Прадо и музеев Прадо и Тисен-Борнемиса. Пешком за 20 минут можно дойти до Гран Виа. А с другой стороны - квартиры находится в относительно тихом уголке, где нет самой толчеи туристов, можно спокойно пообедать и выпить кофе. Из аэропорта можно доехать автобусом-экспрессом (ходит круглосуточно!) до вокзала Аточа всего за 5 евро. От вокзала до квартиры пешком модно дойти за 7 минут.Окна квартиры выходят в тихий дворик, так что даже в праздники вам не помешают отдыхать.В квартире есть абсолютно все необходимое, включая фен и утюг, теплые пледы. Квартира полностью соответствует фотографиям. Фернандо очень доброжелательный хозяин, готов помочь советами, рассказать где лучше пообедать,куда как доехать, где что купить и т.д.Если вы остановитесь в этой квартире, то точно не разочаруетесь.
i had planned to stay in Fernando's apartment with my son for 4 nights, unfortunately, due to circumstances, I was unable to go so my son stayed there with a friend. He told me how friendly and helpful Fernando was and what a good location the apartment was in. I would definitely like to stay sometime myself - it sounds ideal!
Fernando te recibe muy bien y te responde y asesora a todas tus cuestiones sobre el piso, el barrio, etc. El apartamento era tal y como me imaginaba. Muy limpio y muy tranquilo. La situación del piso es ideal para pasar unas vacaciones en Madrid.
En resumen, me llevo un muy buen recuerdo de mi estancia en este piso y del trato recibido por Fernando.
Fernando is friendly and helpful. Waited for us at his apartment, gave us a map and showed us nearby point of interest. Apartment is near most of the attractions, within walking distance. His apartment is clean, modern, well equipped and Internet was fast.
Fernando was great a host. Communication before the trip was quick and easy. In Madrid he explained us everything about the apartment and gave us tips on where to go. The apartment is clean, perfectly located and had everything needed for a short stay.
Fernando is a very friendly and welcoming host! He was always attentive to us and ready to help. We liked the apartment, it has just the right size for two travellers and very convenient location. You will hardly need to use public transport. You can find everything one may need in the nearest area: shops, bars, restaurants, pharmacies and so on. All the sights of the city can be reached by foot and the metro station is also just some minutes away from the apartment. We enjoyed staying there!
Me llamo Fernando y seré tu anfitrión mientras estés en Madrid. Estaré encantado de recibirte y si no conoces Madrid te indicare las mejores rutas culturales, de gastronomía y ocio en la ciudad. Te sentirás como en casa.
