2013 Bentley Continental Supersports Ownership Costs
Cost of Ownership data coming soon
There is no cost of ownership information available for the 2013 Bentley Continental Supersports Base Convertible at this time
2013 Bentley Continental Supersports Base Convertible cost of ownership data is powered by
Ownership costs are the costs to purchase and operate a vehicle over a period of time. Understanding these costs may enable you to save money and help you make a wiser decision when choosing your next new car.
Regardless of the "value" claims that you may read in car reviews or hear in advertisements, the economic value of a car is based on how much it will cost to own and operate compared to its purchase price. In a sense, purchase price is "what you pay" and the ownership costs are "what you get."
Ownership costs can differ greatly. The cost to own and operate two different vehicles with equal purchase prices can differ by thousands. Of course when evaluating ownership cost for used cars and trucks, a vehicle's condition and mileage will greatly impact ownership costs, therefore it's important to compare similar vehicles in similar condition for an accurate picture.

Basic Warranty:
The basic warranty covers everything except items that are subject to wear and tear or replacement in the ordinary course of vehicle ownership, such as oil and air filters, wiper blades and brake pads. Tires and batteries are often excluded, but usually have their own warranty provided by the manufacturers of those items. Emissions equipment is required by Federal law to be covered for five years or 50,000 miles.
Drive Train Warranty:
In some cases the drive train warranty continues after the basic warranty has expired. This part of the warranty covers most of the parts that make the vehicle move, including the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft. Like the basic warranty, consumable parts such as hoses and belts are not covered. However, most of the internal parts of the engine, such as the pistons and bearings, which are also subject to wear and tear, are covered by the drive train warranty.
Roadside Assistance:
Many manufacturers provide a service that will rescue you if your car leaves you stranded, even if it's your fault. Lock yourself our of your car? Run out of gas? Got a flat tire? A call to the manufacturer's toll-free number will result in somebody showing up who can help you out. There is a huge variance in these programs so check ahead of time to see what is covered and what you will have to pay for.
Rust or Corrosion Warranty:
Rust or Corrosion Warranty: This warranty covers the vehicle's sheet metal, and protects you from rust and corrosion that are severe enough to cause a hole - surface rust is not covered. However, if you keep your car washed and waxed rust shouldn't be a problem.

He gave an example once, he said that he was on top near LG exit on t7, and fazz was down by RA. He went to turn the mouse right to hit fazz with the rail and he said that he went across his pad and it didn't go far enough. Given that he was using sens ~5, mouseaccel 0.48, he should have done a 360 and some change in that distance when he only needed to turn about 30 degrees and didn't make it.
Almost no information has surfaced about the bug. If rapha's experience was typical, given what he has said I would say that it's an issue with windows 7 + usb polling rate adjusters + QL's WM_INPUT mouse code. Unfortunately there is certain to be other players in the same situation, and reports similar to rapha's are almost unheard of.
His config was cleaned up, and I know he's tried new mouse + pad. Part of me suspects that it's all in his head. There just isn't enough information though.

The Alchemistby Paulo Coelho
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Paulo Coelho's enchanting novel has inspired a devoted following around the world. This story, dazzling in its simplicity and wisdom, is about an Andalusian shepherd boy named Santiago who travels from his homeland in Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of treasure buried in the Pyramids. Along the way he meets a Gypsy woman, a man who calls himself king, and an Alchemist, all of whom point Santiago in the direction of his quest. No one knows what the treasure is, or if Santiago will be able to surmount the obstacles along the way But what starts out as a journey to find worldly goods turns into a meditation on the treasures found within. Lush, evocative, and deeply humane, the story of Santiago is art eternal testament to the transforming power of our dreams and the importance of listening to our hearts.
"[I]t's an interdenominational, transcendental, inspirational fable — in other words, a bag of wind....A message clings like ivy to every encounter; everyone, but everyone, has to put in their two cents' worth....The absence of characterization and overall blandness suggest authorship by a committee of self-improvement pundits." Kirkus Reviews
"Abeautiful story with a pointed message for every reader." Joseph Girzone, author of Joshua
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho continues to change the lives of its readers forever. With more than two million copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has established itself as a modern classic, universally admired.
Paulo Coelhos masterpiece tells the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found.
The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories can, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along lifes path, and, above all, following our dreams.
At last — the unabridged recording of this timeless bestseller that has sold millions. "To realize one's destiny is a person's only obligation", This quotation taken from "The Alchemist" sums up the focus of the book. The journey that life should be, is lived by a simple shepherd who finds that life's gifts lie within us all. 3 CDs.
About the Author
Paulo Coelho was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the city where he now lives. His own life has in many ways been as varied and unusual as the protagonists of his internationally acclaimed novels. Like them, Paulo Coelho has followed a dream in a quest for fulfillment. His own dream, to be a writer, met with frustration throughout much of his early adult life, a time in which he worked at various professions, some of them materially rewarding but spiritually unfulfilling. "I always knew," he says, "that my Personal Legend, to use a term from alchemy, was to write." He was 38 when he published his first book.
In 1970, after deciding that law school was not for him, he traveled through much of South America, North Africa, Mexico, and Europe. Returning to Brazil after two years, he began a successful career as popular songwriter. In 1974, he was imprisoned for a short time by the military dictatorship then ruling in Brazil. In 1980, he experienced one of the defining moments of his life: he walked the 500-plus mile Road of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain. On this ancient highway, used for centuries by pilgrims from France to get to the cathedral said to house the remains of St. James, he achieved a self-awareness and a spiritual awakening that he later described in The Pilgrimage.
Paulo Coelho once said that following your dream is like learning a foreign language; you will make mistakes but you will get there in the end. In 1988, he published The Alchemist, a novel that explores this theme, and it launched him as an international bestselling author. Specifically, Paulo Coelho is recognized for his powerful storytelling technique and the profound spiritual insights he blends seamlessly into his parables. Since then, The Alchemist has sold more than 11 million copies worldwide and has been translated into some 41 languages. In addition to The Pilgrimage and The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho has written luminous novels about the different streams of our lives, including By The River Piedra I Sat Down &Wept, The Valkyries, The Fifth Mountain, and Veronika Decides to Die. A winner of numerous literary prizes, Paulo Coelho is also a prominent speaker for humanitarian causes. In 1999, he received a Crystal Award for Artistic Achievement at the Davos Economic Forum Conference.
Paulo Coelho nacióen Brasil y es uno de los autores más leídos internacionalmente. El Alquimista, su libro más famoso, ha vendido mas de 35 millones de copias en todo el mundo y ha sido traducido a cincuenta y cuatro idiomas. Ha recibido destacados premios y menciones internacionales como el Planetary Arts Award, el Crystal Award concedido por el foro Económico Mundial y la prestigiosa distinción Chevalier de l'Ordre de la Legión d'Honneur del gobierno francés. Coelho escribe una columna semanal sindicada en el mundo entero. Actualmente, vive en Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.

Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 57 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by PittGirl99 Very Most Excellent Product This is an excellent jacket! Was very hopeful but concerned about ordering as I normally wear a Petite medium. But ordered anyway and couldn't be happier. Decided to wash first and dried on medium heat. This tightened up the fabric and caused just a tiny bit of shrinkage - really made the jacket fit better. Substantial fabric - can wear over a sweater without feeling tight or uncomfortable. Yet it works well over just a simple shirt, too. Perfect weight for this crazy variable weather here in SW PA. April 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by viherpeukku Classic safari jacket for cool days One needs an easy cotton jacket that has roomy enough sleeves to wear with cardigan and which can TAKE it: this is one of those. Plenty of pockets, blessed freedom from handbags! The jacket fits well, true to size, and is carefully made. The material is stiff when new and hopefully relaxes with use. April 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by GlendaO Great Jacket I ordered this jacket for my trip to Spain in the fall. I love the fit, all the pockets and the draw string. I think this will be perfect for anyone, but especially if you are traveling. I first ordered it in a 3x thinking it might run small, will I am here to tell you it does not, I exchanged it for a 2x and I still have tons of room. I would say do not order up, order your size and it will still be roomy. May 5, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by GlendaO Great Jacket I ordered a larger size than I really needed, not knowing if it ran small or not.. I am here to tell you it does not, I am in the process of returning it for a smaller size, feel certain that the smaller size will be perfect. It has tons of pockets and this is just what I need for my trip to Spain, looking forward to wearing it. The quality of the coat looks outstanding. April 27, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by mauiangel Great jacket Purchased this for a particular trip, but I'm sure it's going to be a long term favorite. The fabric is a bit heavier than expected, but it's very well made. The ability to cinch in the waist is great. April 14, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by PSKP Great quality Love the 2 hidden pockets on the inside of the jacket. February 27, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by tigra great fit very useful, well made ,true to size ,i like things without the strech...very difficult to get, the jacket is just cotton, love it April 7, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bitsy Skookum jacket! I purchased this jacket to replace an excellent LL Bean bush jacket which I'd had for years, didn't wear that much (but did take to Africa!#, and foolishly gave to Salvation Army when I left Miami. Now that I've moved out to New Mexico, I regret the decision terribly. LL Bean doesn't offer their jacket anymore, hence this purchase. I haven't actually worn the jacket in "field conditions" yet. #As an aside, I think merchants should wait a few weeks before asking for a review, to give the owner a chance to have used the item.# It is very well made and rugged. For me, the cons of the jacket are no zipper, it only buttons; no hood; and slightly heavy. All these are compared to my LL Bean jacket, which was a lighter fabric but rugged too. Pros are that it is roomy for sweater or whatever underneath, very well made, it is all cotton, and it seems like it will do a good job of protection. And it will look cool in Truth or Consequences #many desert rats there). The bar for fit and size didn't work however I would describe it as perhaps running slightly large. I have not washed it yet.

EDWARDS Firefighters continued to battle a house fire Tuesday 14 hours after it cost an Edwards family nearly everything but their lives.
Edwards Volunteer Fire Department and eight other companies from as far as Harrisville and Star Lake were called to 19 Maple Ave. at 2:15 a.m. to fight the blaze.
The family renting the home, Brandon R. Durham, 21, his girlfriend, Annabelle E. Royce, 19, and their 3-year-old and 3-month-old children, awoke to smoke and fled.
They were able to escape safely, but they woke up choking on smoke, Edwards Fire Chief Richard Thornton said. They were lucky, especially with the 3-month-old.
There were no injuries, but the house was destroyed and most of the familys possessions were lost. The cause of the fire is believed to be related to a recently installed wood furnace, according to Mr. Thornton and St. Lawrence County fire investigators.
Mr. Durham said he and Ms. Royce were awakened at the same time in their second-floor bedroom to a smoke-filled house.
We just jumped out of bed, grabbed the kids and ran out, Mr. Durham said. All I wanted was my family, my dog and my guns.
Firefighters retrieved his two gun safes, which held $2,000 worth of firearms, and the couples cellphones. The two ran across their driveway to Ms. Royces parents house and called 911. Ms. Royces father, Roger Royce, ran to the burning house to get the couples 4-year-old pit bull, Rocky.
I think he was afraid because of all the yelling and screaming, so my dad had to go back to the house and get him, Ms. Royce said. He finally came out the back door safely after my dad called and whistled to him.
Ms. Royce said no flames were initially seen, but as their bare feet hit the first floor, they could feel the heat from the fire in the basement.
Not even 10 minutes later you could see the orange glow in the dining room on the first floor, Ms. Royce said. I just remember going out of the house unprepared. It happened so fast, you didnt have time to think; you just had to react.
The fire burned through the day, and firefighters were still battling it 14 hours after it was reported.
Mr. Thornton said the house is brick-lined and double-roofed, adding to the challenge of putting the fire out.
We couldnt do an exterior attack. We had to go in through the windows, Mr. Thornton said. The house is still smoldering. It just doesnt want to go out.
The fire was in the chimney and spread into the walls, Mr. Thornton said.
We thought the fire was pretty much under control, where smoke was looking more like steam, but I think [the house] had so much insulation that it wasnt showing the heat, and as soon as it got air it took right off, he said.
Frigid temperatures were also a challenge for firefighters. About 4:30 p.m. the house still had one room burning. The chief said the building would have been leveled to help extinguish the blaze, but below-zero temperatures kept the village excavator from starting.
So we are just going to let it burn down so we can get it out, Mr. Thornton said. The insurance company gave us the OK to do whatever we have to do to make it safe.
He said the nearly 20-below weather created icy conditions for firefighters, causing some to slip and fall. No one was seriously hurt.
While the building was insured, Mr. Durham and Ms. Royce did not have renters insurance. The couple said they planned to buy the house, but now have to start over. They are staying with Mr. Royce in the meantime.
We are going to have to wait it out and see what happens, but we are looking to rebuild our lives here in Edwards, Ms. Royce said.
DeKalb Junction, Fine, Gouverneur, Harrisville, Hermon, Richville, Russell and Star Lake volunteer fire departments assisted.

|WHS Baseball Opens Season Tuesday
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Monday, 28 February 2011 19:09
The Watauga High baseball team begins another chapter in the Pete Hardee era.
The Pioneers, who have produced three consecutive winning seasons and back-to-back Northwestern 3A/4A Conference regular-season championships, will probably put their deepest team, especially in the pitching department, on the field since 1998. It's been a while, but the Pioneers, despite a minor shoulder injury to their ace Dylan Norris, feature a formiable pitching staff that can be extremely efficent this season.

Coordinated signage and mapping systems guide users toward the types of experiences they seek, ranging from a highly social first-time river experience lasting a few hours to multi-day adventures. Water trail partners at the local level are encouraged to steward the natural and economic values of their waterways to help boost local economies and give Iowans outdoor experiences just out their back doors. Iowa DNR water trails staff lead through setting standards for planning requirements, providing funding and technical assistance, and maintaining the framework of the overall system.

With the second round of heavy snowfall in Kashmir valley, skiers from around the globe have descended on the ski resort of Gulmarg, known for long-run skiing, snow-boarding, heli-skiing and steep mountains. Gulmarg is located less than six miles from the ceasefire line or Line of Control (LoC) that divides Kashmir between India and Pakistan. As a sense of normalcy has started to return to this strife-torn region, various foreign governments, including the United Kingdom, have lifted the travel advisory to its citizens traveling to Kashmir, raising the hopes of the local tourism industry, officials said.

OGDENSBURG Since it was founded in 2009, the goal of PJs 4 Xmas has stayed the same: to make sure all needy children in St. Lawrence County wake up with new pajamas on Christmas morning.
This year, PJs 4 Xmas founders Abigail and Camille E. Marshall have turned the organization into a certified nonprofit, obtained its own delivery truck and delivered 1,761 pairs of pajamas to children around the county.
Using a converted FedEx truck they purchased for $1,000, the girls delivered pajamas to several community organizations, including the Giving Tree, Heuvelton; the Neighborhood Center, A to Z Thrift Shops Christmas program and Renewal House in Canton and Salvation Army, Ogdensburg.
A lot goes to Canton, since they are the county hub, and they can spread them out to other places, said Melissa L. Carroll-Durham, the girls mother.
The girls also made sure every child in the county foster program received a pair, and delivered pairs to all of the Head Start programs in the county.
Abigail, 13, said her favorite part about gathering pajamas is cutting off the tags and individually stamping the pajamas for each girl or boy who will receive them.
I think everything went well, and everyone was happy when they opened their pajamas, Abigail said.
While the group was a little more than 200 shy of reaching its goal of 2,000 pairs this year, the sisters said they couldnt be happier with how many pajamas they collected.
The girls didnt get as many helpers this year but far more people supported the program, Camille, 16, said.
Because of their efforts, the girls are receiving recognition and support from all over the county. Several groups, including Girl Scout troops, volunteered to help tag pajamas.
People are starting to recognize us in other townships like Massena and Potsdam and really help us fill those orders for pajamas, Ms. Carroll-Durham said.
The girls said they received $7,405 in donations more than ever before which will be used to purchase pajamas and supplies for next year.
The organization spends $4,000 to set up drop boxes and post fliers around the county and purchase gasoline, and requires a lot of fundraising, Ms. Carroll-Durham said.
With their new nonprofit status, the girls hope to find sponsors and help children outside the county next year.
They always say the first five years are the hardest, and they werent kidding, Ms. Carroll-Durham said. But people in the county are starting to know what we do and that is going to make a big difference for next year.
Since 2009, the girls have helped give bed clothes to nearly 4,000 children in the county.
I have to pinch myself to believe they are my kids, Ms. Carroll-Durham said.

Rising Seas
Some areas of the globe are especially vulnerable to rising sea levels and inhabitants are being forced to make stark changes in their lives.
Greenland's Changing Face
As Greenland's massive ice cap recedes, vast new deposits of minerals and gems are being discovered, forming the basis of a potentially lucrative mining industry.
Greenland's Unfrozen Future
Greenland's receding ice has exposed vast deposits of valuable minerals and new opportunities for an island in economic decline.
A Changing Greenland
The warming climate has expanded the possibility of oil and mineral exploitation in the Arctic, bringing a construction boom to Nuuk, the capital of Greenland.
Restless Ice
Researchers studying Greenland note that its massive ice sheet appears to be destabilizing. Some glaciers have doubled or tripled their speed recently, possibly because of human-induced climate change. If the trend continues, ice melting into the ocean could raise sea levels substantially.

- Latest updates:
- The Advisories and Security tabs were updated - removal of advisory for Manu region.
PERU - Exercise a high degree of caution
There is no nationwide advisory in effect for Peru. However, you should exercise a high degree of caution due to potential social conflicts and strikes that may occur across the country.
Regional Advisory
Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada advises against non-essential travel to the following areas:
- the districts of Kimbiri, Pichari and Vilcabamba in La Convención province in the department of Cuzco (the city of Cuzco and Machu Picchu are not affected);
- the Upper Huallaga and Ene river valleys in the Huánuco and San Martín departments;
- La Mar and Huanta provinces in the department of Ayacucho;
- Marañon, Huacaybamba, Leoncio Prado and Humalies provinces in the department of Huanuco;
- Huallaga and Tocache provinces in the department of San Martín;
- Padre Abad province in the department of Ucayali;
- Tayacaja province in the department of Huancavelica; and
- Satipo and Concepción provinces in the department of Junin.
In these areas, remnants of the Shining Path terrorist group continue to conduct occasional ambushes, kidnappings and attacks. In addition, narcotic trafficking pose a threat to security.
Regional Advisory for the border area with Colombia
Regional Advisory for the border area with Ecuador
The decision to travel is your responsibility. You are also responsible for your personal safety abroad. The Government of Canada takes the safety and security of Canadians abroad very seriously and provides credible and timely information in its Travel Advice. In the event of a crisis situation that requires evacuation, the Government of Canada's policy is to provide safe transportation to the closest safe location. The Government of Canada will assist you in leaving a country or a region as a last resort, when all means of commercial or personal transportation have been exhausted. This service is provided on a cost-recovery basis. Onward travel is at your personal expense. Situations vary from one location to another, and there may be constraints on government resources that will limit the ability of the Government of Canada to provide assistance, particularly in countries or regions where the potential for violent conflict or political instability is high.
IMF–World Bank Annual Meeting 2015
The annual meeting of the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund will take place in Lima, Peru, from October 5 to October 12, 2015. Higher volumes of traffic, street closures, delays in transportation and limited availability of accommodations are expected in the lead-up to and during the conference.
Manu region
Exercise a high degree of caution in the Manu region and the National Park of Manu in the Department of Madre de Dios as recent protests caused the delay and detainment of tourists travelling through the region by boat. Confirm your travel and security arrangements with your travel agent or tour operator prior to travelling to the area. You may also contact the Peruvian government's Tourist Information and Assistance website iPeru for the latest information on the situation.
Terrorism (see Advisory)
There are continuing concerns about possible domestic terrorist activity by subversive groups, including remnant members of the Shining Path. Isolated incidents have occurred in remote areas and cities within the departments of Puno, Piura, Lambayeque, La Libertad, Junín, Ayacucho, Cuzco, Ucayali, San Martín, Huánuco, Huancavelica and Apurímac. Incidents include robberies, kidnappings, temporary takeovers of small villages and, although rare, violence (including bombings) or threats of violence against local security forces or community figures. Overland travel in these regions can be dangerous.
Travel in areas where there is coca cultivation and processing is dangerous. You should review regional advisories carefully.
Crime is a problem throughout the country. Maintain a high level of vigilance and personal security awareness at all times, especially at night. Travel in groups whenever possible throughout the country.
Petty crime is prevalent in Lima and other cities. Purse snatching, pickpocketing, theft from vehicles and break-ins occur, even during daylight hours and in crowded public areas. Thefts also occur frequently in hotels and restaurants, and while hailing taxis. Avoid walking alone in deserted or under-populated areas. Avoid showing signs of affluence, wearing jewellery, and carrying unnecessary credit cards and large amounts of money. Keep your valuables and identification on your person (in your pocket or in a pouch under clothing, for example).
Attacks and robberies on vehicles occur regularly along the route from the airport in Lima. Tourists are often targeted by criminals posing as taxi drivers along this route. When arriving at Lima's Jorge Chávez International Airport, use a secure taxi service to go into the city, and exercise particular caution en route to your hotel. Further information on registered taxi companies is available on the Lima Airport Partners website.
Theft on intercity and micro buses and at bus terminals is also very common. Ensure that your personal belongings, passports and other travel documents are secure at all times. Never leave personal belongings unattended. Avoid travelling after dark, when armed gangs have been known to stop buses to rob travellers.
If you are stopped by police or security forces, ask to see official identification. Record the officer's name, badge number and district. Thieves have been known to pose as police officers in order to gain the confidence and cooperation of their potential victims.
Thefts on boats by river pirates have been reported along rivers in the Amazon jungle.
Avoid moneychangers on the street, as they may carry counterfeit currency or work with pickpockets. Bystanders have been injured during violent robberies targeting these individuals.
Credit card skimming is also a concern, and travelers should keep their credit cards within sight while making transactions.
Violent crime
Violent crimes such as carjacking, assault and armed robbery are frequent, especially in the cities of Lima, Cuzco and Arequipa.
While travelling by car, keep your doors locked and windows shut at all times. Keep your personal belongings in the trunk of the vehicle as criminals have been known to shatter windows ("smash and grab") or attempt entry at the sight of travel bags or merchandise. Criminals have also been known to throw objects in front of oncoming traffic in the hopes that cars will stop. If this occurs and you need to stop, do so only in a safe location, such as a gas station. Avoid travelling by road outside of major cities after dark as there is a high risk of robbery at night.
Recent incidents of assaults on buses have been reported. Avoid travelling on buses at night.
Incidents of sexual assault including rape have been reported in the cities of Lima, Cuzco, Puno, Pucallpa, Arequipa, Chiclayo and Trujillo, and in many isolated areas elsewhere in the country. Female travellers should exercise caution at all times, especially at bus terminals and in taxis. Never leave food or drinks unattended or in the care of strangers. Be wary of accepting snacks, beverages, gum or cigarettes from new acquaintances, as they may contain drugs that could put you at risk.
Remain vigilant due to the threat of "express" kidnappings, in which victims are usually abducted for a few hours and forced to withdraw money from automated banking machines (ABMs). Most express kidnappings take place at night, but cases also occur during daylight hours. Express kidnappings often involve criminals posing as taxi drivers, or taxi drivers working for organized gangs. Kidnappers tend to select victims according to outward signs of affluence, such as their clothing, vehicle or place of work. Do not accept transportation or guide services offered by individuals seeking clients on the streets, and book a secure taxi from a reputable company. Resisting a robbery can lead to further violence.
Demonstrations and civil unrest
Demonstrations, protests and strikes are common throughout the country and may increase in the lead-up to, during and after elections. Strikes and marching demonstrators may cause road blocks which disrupt, public transit and travel on roads. Protests in the area of Puno can sometimes result in the closure of the border crossing with Bolivia.
Recent demonstrations in the Arequipa region have become violent and have led to deaths and injuries. Impromptu road blocks may affect travel within the region, especially travel to and from the cities of Arequipa and Puno. Disruptions could resume without notice. Confirm your travel plans with your travel provider.
Avoid large crowds, political gatherings and marches as they can turn violent without notice. Monitor local media reports for up-to-date information and follow the advice of local authorities.
Road travel
Poor road conditions and a lack of traffic signs are common. Mountainous roads can be particularly dangerous, especially at night. When renting a vehicle, always purchase insurance. Avoid travelling by road outside of major cities after dark.
Intercity bus travel can be dangerous. Bus accidents are frequently caused by excessive speed, poor vehicle maintenance and driver fatigue. Only use reputable transportation companies. Contact your travel agency for a list of recommended intercity bus companies. The Peruvian Ministry of Transportation (website in Spanish only) publishes a list of the bus companies with the highest rates of traffic accidents resulting in fatalities or serious injuries.
Do not hail taxis on the street. Reserve a taxi by calling a reputable taxi company or use taxi services associated with major hotels. Agree to a fare prior to departure, and do not pay until you have reached your destination. Having exact fare is recommended as taxi drivers sometimes fail to provide change or will continue to drive until they can obtain change. Police spot checks are common and can cause delays. Carry identification and vehicle registration at all times.
Air travel
There have been a number of incidents involving small aircraft in the area of the Nazca Lines, some resulting in fatal accidents. Ensure that your airline has a good record and appropriate safety measures in place.
The Government of Canada does not provide information on the safety of foreign domestic airlines. Research foreign domestic airlines, aircraft and government safety supervision if you have concerns about aviation safety standards abroad.
Adventure Travel
If you intend to trek:
a) never trek alone;
b) always hire an experienced guide and ensure that the trekking company is reputable;
c) buy travel health insurance that includes helicopter rescue and medical evacuation;
d) ensure that you are in top physical condition;
e) advise a family member or friend of your itinerary;
f) register when entering national parks;
g) know the symptoms of acute altitude sickness, which can be fatal;
h) register with the Embassy of Canada in Peru; and
i) obtain detailed information on trekking routes before setting out. Treks and hiking excursions should be undertaken in groups, with experienced tour guides only.
Each year, several hikers and climbers partaking in adventure activities are victims of serious accidents in the Andes, some of which are fatal. Climbers should be well informed on the possible hazards and exercise extreme caution in steep or slippery areas, which are neither fenced nor marked. Exercise extreme caution while climbing the Huayna Picchu, a peak near Machu Picchu, where serious injuries and deaths have occurred. Assaults have also been reported along the Inca Trail and in the Huaraz region of the Cordillera Blanca mountains.
Contact the Peruvian national police's High Mountain Rescue Unit (USAM) before visiting mountainous areas in Ancash (tel.: 51-1-575-1555, fax: 51-1-575-3036, email: email@example.com).
Swimming in jungle lakes and rivers can be dangerous due to the presence of parasites and wildlife. Strong currents exist in the Pacific Ocean and in rivers. Seek advice from local residents before swimming and consult local authorities about recent conditions.
There have been several recent accidents and drownings involving tourists white-water rafting, particularly on the Urubamba River near Cuzco. Ensure that the rafting company follows strict safety guidelines prior to participating in any such activities.
Recently, spiritual cleansing ceremonies offered by shamans and other individuals have led to the serious illness, deaths and assaults of several tourists. These services are not regulated and may involve taking substances that can cause medical complications and severely impair cognitive and physical abilities.
Emergency services
Dial 105 for emergency assistance. For tourist assistance and information, contact iPeru (tel.: (01) 574-8000, email: firstname.lastname@example.com).
The Peruvian government has opened tourist police offices in most tourist destinations. Tourist police can be contacted at 0800-2221 from anywhere in Peru. The local telephone numbers for the tourist police in Lima are 51-1-715-6554 (Miraflores), 51-1-423-3500 (Lima North) and 51-1-243-2190 (Lima South). Jorge Chávez Airport in Lima has its own tourist police office open 24 hours a day to provide service (51-1-517-1841). There are also tourist police offices in 15 other cities, including all major tourist destinations, such as Cuzco, Arequipa and Puno.
Tourists may register complaints on a 24-hour hotline provided by the National Institute for the Defense of Competition and the Protection of Intellectual Property (INDECOPI). INDECOPI operators speak English (tel.: 224-7777 in Lima; 01-224-7777 outside Lima; or toll-free 08-004-4040 within Peru). In Lima, the INDECOPI office is open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (there is an answering machine after business hours). The office at the Jorge Chávez International Airport operates 24 hours a day.
Entry/exit requirements
Entry/exit requirements
It is the sole prerogative of each country or region to determine who is allowed to enter. Canadian consular officials cannot intervene on your behalf if you do not meet entry requirements. The following information on entry and exit requirements has been obtained from the Peruvian authorities. However, these requirements are subject to change at any time. It is your responsibility to check with the Embassy of the Republic of Peru or one of its consulates for up-to-date information.
Official (special and diplomatic) passport holders must consult the Official Travel page, as they may be subject to different entry requirements.
Canadians must present a passport to visit Peru, which must be valid for at least six months beyond the date of expected departure from that country. Prior to travelling, ask your transportation company about its requirements related to passport validity, which may be more stringent than the country's entry rules.
Tourist visa: Not required
Business visa: Required
Student visa: Required
Although Canadians do not need a tourist visa to visit Peru, all travellers will need to complete a form called the Andean Migration Card (Tarjeta Andina de Migración) upon arrival. This document must be presented prior to departure from Peru. Failure to produce this document may prevent exit, and result in delays and/or fines until a replacement is obtained.
The length of stay—up to a maximum of 183 days—is determined by immigration officers. Overstaying is a criminal offence and Peruvian immigration charges a fee of US$1 for each day of overstay. This fee must be paid upon exiting the country.
Canadians should ensure they receive an entrance stamp in their passport at the port of entry, especially at land borders. Immigration offices at some land borders may not be open at all times or be difficult to locate. Cross at official checkpoints only. By law, Peruvian immigration officials will require anyone who does not obtain a stamp upon entry to apply for an expulsion order before leaving the country. The application for the expulsion order is lengthy and may take weeks to complete. Expulsion will result in being barred from re-entry. Returning to the original point of entry to obtain the stamp before leaving Peru is no longer acceptable by Peruvian immigration officials.
If your passport is lost or stolen, a new Andean Migration Card and a new entry stamp on the replacement passport must be processed at the Superintendencia Nacional de Migraciones (Spanish only).
If you entered Peru on a business visa, you must show certification from the Peruvian Ministry of the Economy that all Peruvian taxes on income earned during the trip have been paid. The certification is required even if no money was paid or earned. You must then present this certification to the central Peruvian immigration office in Lima.
Monetary restrictions
Travellers carrying more than US$10,000 or its equivalent in any currencies or any monetary instrument must declare the amount exceeding US$10,000 when entering or leaving Peru. Furthermore, it is prohibited to carry currencies or monetary instruments exceeding US$30,000 when entering or leaving Peru.
General information
Consult the government of Peru's Essential Guide for Tourists Visiting Peru for more information on entry and exit requirements.
Children and travel
We strongly recommend that Canadian children carry a consent letter if they are travelling abroad alone, or travelling with only one parent/guardian, with friends or relatives or with a group. A consent letter may be requested by immigration authorities when children enter or leave a foreign country or by Canadian officials when children re-enter Canada. Failure to produce a letter upon request may result in delays or refusal to allow children to enter or exit a country.
Minors exiting Peru after a three-month stay are automatically protected by Peru's law on minors and will require the authorization of both parents/guardians to exit the country.
See Children for more information.

Routine Vaccines
Be sure that your routine vaccines are up-to-date regardless of your travel destination.
Vaccines to Consider
You may be at risk for these vaccine-preventable diseases while travelling in this country. Talk to your travel health provider about which ones are right for you.
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis A is a disease of the liver spread through contaminated food and water or contact with an infected person. All those travelling to regions with a risk of hepatitis A infection should get vaccinated.
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B is a disease of the liver spread through blood or other bodily fluids. Travellers who may be exposed (e.g., through sexual contact, medical treatment, sharing needles, tattooing, acupuncture or occupational exposure) should get vaccinated.
Seasonal influenza occurs worldwide. The flu season usually runs from November to April in the northern hemisphere, between April and October in the southern hemisphere and year round in the tropics. Influenza (flu) is caused by a virus spread from person to person when they cough or sneeze or by touching objects and surfaces that have been contaminated with the virus. Get the flu shot.
Measles is a highly contagious viral disease and is common in most parts of the world. Be sure your measles vaccination is up-to-date regardless of your travel destination.
Rabies is a deadly illness spread to humans through a bite, scratch or lick from an infected animal. Vaccination should be considered for travellers going to areas where rabies exists and who have a high risk of exposure (i.e., close contact with animals, occupational risk, and children).
Yellow Fever Vaccination
Yellow fever is a disease caused by a flavivirus from the bite of an infected mosquito.
Travellers get vaccinated either because it is required to enter a country or because it is recommended for their protection.
|* It is important to note that country entry requirements may not reflect your risk of yellow fever at your destination. It is recommended that you contact the nearest diplomatic or consular office of the destination(s) you will be visiting to verify any additional entry requirements.
|Country Entry Requirement*
Food and Water-borne Diseases
Travellers to any destination in the world can develop travellers' diarrhea from consuming contaminated water or food.
In some areas in South America, food and water can also carry diseases like cholera, hepatitis A, schistosomiasis and typhoid. Practise safe food and water precautions while travelling in South America. Remember: Boil it, cook it, peel it, or leave it!
Travellers' diarrhea
- Travellers' diarrhea is the most common illness affecting travellers. It is spread from eating or drinking contaminated food or water.
- Risk of developing travellers' diarrhea increases when travelling in regions with poor standards of hygiene and sanitation. Practise safe food and water precautions.
- The most important treatment for travellers' diarrhea is rehydration (drinking lots of fluids). Carry oral rehydration salts when travelling.
Typhoid is a bacterial infection spread by contaminated food or water. Risk is higher among pediatric travellers, travellers going to rural areas, visiting friends and relatives or travelling for a long period of time. Travellers at high risk visiting regions with typhoid risk, especially those exposed to places with poor sanitation should speak to a health care provider about vaccination.
Insects and Illness
In some areas in South America, certain insects carry and spread diseases like American trypanosomiasis (Chagas disease), chikungunya, dengue fever, leishmaniasis, malaria, onchocerciasis (river blindness), West Nile virus and yellow fever.
Travellers are advised to take precautions against bites.
There is currently an outbreak of chikungunya in this country. Chikungunya is a viral disease spread through the bite of an infected mosquito that typically causes fever and pain in the joints. Protect yourself from mosquito bites, particularly around sunrise and sunset. There is no vaccine available for chikungunya.
Dengue fever
- Dengue fever occurs in this country. Dengue fever is a viral disease that can cause severe flu-like symptoms. In some cases it leads to dengue haemorrhagic fever, which can be fatal.
- The risk of dengue is higher during the daytime, particularly at sunrise and sunset.
- Protect yourself from mosquito bites. There is no vaccine or medication that protects against dengue fever.
Leishmaniasis, cutaneous and mucosal
Cutaneous and mucosal leishmaniasis causes skin sores and ulcers. It is caused by a parasite spread through the bite of a female sandfly. Risk is generally low for most travellers. Protect yourself from sandfly bites, which typically occur after sunset in rural and forested areas and in some urban centres. There is no vaccine or medication to protect against leishmaniasis.
- There is a risk of malaria in certain areas and/or during a certain time of year in this country.
- Malaria is a serious and occasionally fatal disease that is spread by the bite of an infected mosquito. There is no vaccine against malaria.
- Protect yourself from mosquito bites. This includes covering up, using insect repellent and staying in enclosed air-conditioned accommodations. You may also consider pre-treating clothing and travel gear with insecticides and sleeping under an insecticide-treated bednet.
- Antimalarial medication may be recommended depending on your itinerary and the time of year you are travelling. See a health care provider or visit a travel health clinic, preferably six weeks before you travel to discuss your options.
Animals and Illness
Travellers are cautioned to avoid contact with animals, including dogs, monkeys, snakes, rodents, and bats. Certain infections found in some areas in South America, like rabies, can be shared between humans and animals.
Person-to-Person Infections
Crowded conditions can increase your risk of certain illnesses. Remember to wash your hands often and practice proper cough and sneeze etiquette to avoid colds, the flu and other illnesses.
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV are spread through blood and bodily fluids; practise safer sex.
Tuberculosis is an infection caused by bacteria and usually affects the lungs.
For most travellers the risk of tuberculosis is low.
Travellers who may be at high risk while travelling in regions with risk of tuberculosis should discuss pre- and post-travel options with a health care provider.
High-risk travellers include those visiting or working in prisons, refugee camps, homeless shelters, or hospitals, or travellers visiting friends and relatives.
Medical services and facilities
Do not expect medical services to be the same as in Canada. Consult Well on Your Way—A Canadian's Guide to Healthy Travel Abroad for more information. If you have a medical emergency while abroad, officials at the nearest Canadian government office can provide you with a list of licensed health care providers.
Private hospitals and clinics in urban centres are often better staffed and equipped than public or rural facilities. Physicians and hospitals often expect immediate cash payment for medical care.
Health tips
When travelling to the Peruvian Andes, you may experience health problems caused by high altitude. Altitude sickness can be life threatening and may require medical evacuation from the area.
Keep in Mind...
The decision to travel is the sole responsibility of the traveller. The traveller is also responsible for his or her own personal safety.
Be prepared. Do not expect medical services to be the same as in Canada. Pack a travel health kit, especially if you will be travelling away from major city centres.
Laws & culture
Laws & culture
You are subject to local laws. See Arrest and detention for more information.
Illegal drugs
Penalties for possession, use or trafficking of illegal drugs are strict. Convicted offenders can expect lengthy jail sentences, regardless of the amount of narcotics seized at arrest.
Pack your luggage yourself and keep it with you at all times. Do not carry anything through customs for anybody else.
Prison conditions in Peru are poor.
Foreigners are required to carry photo identification at all times. Be cautious when you carry your passport, especially in entertainment venues. A photocopy of your passport—specifically the information, visa and entry stamp pages—is generally acceptable. However, police may require that you produce the original. Failure to show identification could result in detention and police questioning at the nearest station where fingerprints would be taken.
You should respect local customs and laws when visiting Peru's historical sites. Fines and other penalties may be imposed by Peruvian authorities for any actions considered to be disrespectful at historical and archaeological sites such as Machu Picchu, Saqsayhuaman, and Ollantaytambo.
Peruvian law strictly prohibits the export of antiques and artefacts (huacos) from pre-colonial civilizations. Travellers who purchase reproductions of colonial or pre-colonial art should buy only from reputable dealers and should insist upon documentation from Peru's National Institute of Culture showing that the object is a reproduction and may be exported.
The export of coca tea bags is prohibited and it is illegal to remove certain fauna and flora items from Peru.
It is forbidden to photograph military installations.
A foreign driver's license can be used only in Lima for 30 days after arrival. To drive outside of Lima or for an extended period, an international driving permit is mandatory.
Dual citizenship
Dual citizenship is legally recognized in Peru. However, Canadian officials may be limited in their ability to provide you with consular services if local authorities consider you a Peruvian citizen. You should travel using your Canadian passport and present yourself as Canadian to foreign authorities at all times to minimize this risk. Citizenship is determined solely by national laws, and the decision to recognize dual citizenship rests completely with the country in which you are located when seeking consular assistance. See Travelling as a dual citizen for more information.
The currency is the Peruvian nuevo sol (PEN). The US dollar is widely accepted. Credit cards are widely accepted in Lima, but less so outside major cities. Travellers cheques are not widely accepted. In small towns, automated banking machines (ABMs) may not be readily available. ABMs in large cities may accept out-of-country bank cards and credit cards. You should inform your banking company of your travel prior to departing and confirm whether you will be able to use ABMs in Peru.
Counterfeit currency in both nuevo sol and U.S. dollars is a growing and serious problem. Counterfeit bills are widely distributed, including by banks, casinos and local stores. Tourists should be aware of the security features of the currency they are using and be aware of scams involving switching legitimate bills with counterfeit.
Natural disasters & climate
Natural disasters & climate
Seismic activity
Peru is located in an active seismic zone and is prone to earthquakes; in coastal areas, earthquakes may cause tsunamis. If you are indoors when an earthquake strikes, make your way to a safe zone. These are usually marked in public buildings with an "S,", which indicate where the structural pillars are located. If you are outside, keep away from buildings and other areas where objects could fall.
Rainy season
The rainy season extends from November to May in the Peruvian Andes. Heavy rains, resulting in flooding and landslides, often cause transportation delays. Utilities, emergency and medical care, as well as food, fuel and water supplies may be affected. Water-borne and insect-borne diseases may also become a threat. Keep informed of regional weather forecasts and plan accordingly.
There are active and potentially active volcanoes in southern Peru. Ubinas Volcano has erupted multiple times in recent months. Consult the Geophysical Institute of Peru Instituto Geofisico del Peru (IGP) (in Spanish) and the Geology, mineralogy and metallurgy Institute Instituto Geologico Minero y Metalurigico (INGEMMET) (in Spanish) for up-to-date information on volcanic activity.
Debris from erupting volcanoes may clog rivers and cause them to overflow, resulting in potential flash floods and mudslides. Transportation and services may be affected. Ash clouds may cause disruptions to domestic and international flights.
If you live or are travelling near active volcanoes, monitor levels of volcanic activity through the local media, pay careful attention to all warnings issued and follow the advice of local authorities. Be prepared to modify your travel arrangements or even evacuate the area on short notice. Consult the Instituto Nacional De Defensa Civil (in Spanish) for information on emergency procedures.
Lima - Embassy of Canada
For emergency assistance after hours, call the Embassy of Canada in Lima and follow the instructions. You may also call the Emergency Watch and Response Centre in Ottawa toll-free at 001-800-387-3124 or call collect to 613-996-8885.

Have ya'll seen these commercials
It Says Aardman did them
Well mmasonghi, dat dem der "Y'all" was mite convincin' I tell yar that much. But y'all better leave that kinda talk to Ian. It would be darn near copyright if yer stole his "trade mark" now wouldn' it?
(Yes that was horrible wasn't it... :plain
y'all aint a copyrighted word. mmasonghi, just out of curiousity, are you from the US, or UK, or somewhere else. And STL, nah, that wern't horrible, the thing that killed ye, was sayin' y'all referin' to one person, no southron would ever in his right mind say that! Oh and the "dat dem der"???it would probably be more realistic to say "that dern"
Oh, yeah back to the thread! Yeah!!! I saw those a couple months ago, the first time I saw one of those commercials was actually at the dentist, there wasn't sound on the little TV but I knew it had to be Aardman... looked it up when it got home and turns out I was right.
again so we're clear I don't have a southern drawl (deep southern accent) I have a slight appalachian twang.... It is more like the way I say some words, rather than having a drawl on every word... I am trying to improve my Kentuckian accent, I have always sorta fought against it, but now I have sort of an appreciation fer it... After being in New York.... I realized that, Kentucky is awesome!
Yes, yes it is...
I like the Southern US accent better to the northern to be honest... It sounds more friendly.
We got that good southern hospitality.
I think Kentucky is perfect for that because it is pretty much right in the middle. We have some of the good northern stuff (oxymoron?), like industry, technology, and other stuff. Then we got all the awesome Dixie stuff, Amazing friendliness, good food (fried chicken and cornbread )! Southern accents and all that good southern stuff.
Louisville is a big city, (1.3 million) but, it is THE SMALLEST BIG CITY ever, it seems like everywhere you go you run into people you know or someone that knows someone you know. It's great because you have everything you need in the city, but the people act like you're in a small little town.
I am not one of those people that thinks the north is terrible and the south is the only good part of the coutnry, but I do think people in the south just seem more genuine.
Yeah Kentucky rocks! They have cool chicken nuggets!
Mmm, chicken nugget dipped in chocolate...
And there is less crime because most people are friendly and know each other right?
OT: I saw those online a few months ago, they're pretty cool.
I mean, it is still a big city, so there is going to be crime, but we have a pretty low crime rate... this is from the website NeighborhoodScout "Louisville's overall rate of crime is sufficiently low that NeighborhoodScout's analysis shows the city to be one of the safest in both Kentucky and the nation. Louisville's crime rate is just 1 per 1,000 people, which means that a person's chance of becoming a victim in Louisville is one in 1315."
Louisville is broken up into little neighborhoods, some of them are actually small cities within the big city, so that helps too, Most people in louisville is either from German or Irish descent, so there is a big area called Germantown, and another one called the highlands, there is St. Mathew's, Audabon Park, Old Louisville, and those are neighborhoods, but they are also separate cities of their own with a mayor and everything... I think that is why Louisville feels so small, because you can tell someone which neighborhood you are in and everybody pretty much knows somebody in every neighborhood.
Won't tell ya which one, but I live in one of the ones I listed.
I love that it has that small town feel because I am not a fan of big cities, one of my favorite places is munfordville, about an hour and a half south, It is this great old little town (about 1500 people) and it just has a great feel to it. It also has a lot of civil war stuff, which I like a lot.
Ian I'm from Texas YEEHAA!
I am from the Midwest! I am a Wisconsinite!
My Aunt lives in Texas.
speaking of Aunts, I am not sure if it is just a Kentucky thing or a southern thing in general... pretty much everyone here pronounces the word aunt like "aint", like my mom's sister is my aint. sometimes (not often) it will be pronounced, "ant" but never "ah-nt"
being from texas, mmasonghi... how do you pronounce the word Aunt?
Oh my gosh harryboy, I LIVE IN WISCONSIN TOO!!!!!!!!!!
What if I know you and I don't even know it? Oh my goodness. That's crazy!
i think you should met up with ajmole
But for safety reasons for both ajmole and I, not anytime soon.
That is, unless I know her and I had no idea she was ajmole.
I am considering that your name is Harry (your username), am I correct? Because I don't know anybody named Harry.
If you don't mind, are you closer to the upper part of Michigan (like north Wisconsin) or closer to Illinois?
Awe- HEY WAIT A MINUTE! I live closer to Illinois too! DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!! LOL.
I think the epicness is over now.
And why it's harry, well I'll just keep that a secret.
Oh wow.
I couldn't agree more.
Hmmmmmmm........ so............ have you ever went to Chocolate Fest (if you know what that is)
Nope. Never heard of it. Let's go to the 'KayLax10!' thread to chat, shall we?
Hi Harryboy8080- It's important not to give out information on here, including your real name.
wait..... really????? I don't think there is a member on here that doesn't call me Ian.
Sorry! Not to be rude, but that is kind of hypocritical because your username is Ellie M.........
you tell her harryboy8080 be nice to him ellie m as he is recovering from an operation
Now, don't make this into a fight. The fact that I am recovering from from an operation has nothing to do with this, and plus I was just proving my point. Thanks for sticking up for me, (you're a great friend) but Ellie M was just doing what she is supposed to do as moderator, keep us safe. But, that doesn't make much sense, there are probably hundreds of Eli's in Wisconsin.
I don't think you should (not exactly sure if this is the right word) 'talk back' to moderators kld.
my honest opinion is that... I don't think saying your name is really that bad, I mean most people call me Ian on here. I don't think that a last name is too bad but probably not the best thing... I don't think saying where you live is that bad... Just not your address or like your school.
I know Ian isn't the most common name in Kentucky... but there are enough that saying my name ain't too bad.... especially on WallaceandGromit.com
i say aint
I know it seems silly- I was just keeping an eye on you guys
My username is Ellie M but maybe my name is Fluffy McBubbles
Hope you're feeling OK Harryboy!
I am feeling well! Well that is such a coincidence! That's my real name too!
Well har- Fluffy McBubbles, I like your new Avatar!
got anouther one
And One More
Have you seen this?It is a great animation!
Hope you like it!
That's so Cool,with Animation,life would be super incredible
i know right?!?

Friday, June 26, 2009"Improvisation" was the theme for this year's edition of IMPACT being held this week on the Lipscomb University campus. Members of the Nashville R.B.I. program, which provides inner-city children the opportunity to play organized baseball, were surprised recipients of that theme.
Thursday afternoon, at Ken Dugan Field at Stephen L. Marsh Stadium, teams consisting of 13, 14 and 15-year-old players competed in front of more than 1,500 fans. Most of the fans were from the IMPACT group and they provided an enthusiastic back drop for the event including cheers and banners and signs for individual players.
In keeping with the "Improvisation" theme the players had no idea there would be a crowd. They were simply told by Reggie Whittemore, a former Lipscomb Bisons baseball player and the executive director of the R.B.I. program that they would have the opportunity to play a game on an NCAA Division I baseball field.
The Lipscomb baseball coaching staff, head coach Jeff Forehand and assistant coaches Chris Collins, Brian Ryman and Lantz Wheeler, prepared the field for the game.
The umpires were from the Atlantic Sun Conference.
The game day atmosphere was the same as it would be for a Lipscomb baseball game with the scoreboard, music, a p.a. announcer and two announcers on the field. The teams were introduced individually and lined up on the base paths.
The event was coordinated by Steve Davidson through IMPACT.

Link: Bill Barnwell Endorses Clemens
Yesterday on ESPN News, Newsday's Eric [sic] Boland noted he had heard that there were some inside the organization that had "soured" on Kellen Clemens, presumably based on last summer and his 2007 campaign.
Meanwhile, Football Outsiders writer Bill Barnwell wrote on ESPN's Insider section yesterday that he's got a suggestion on who the Jets should be behind center come next September.
So now what? Are the Jets back at square one with regard to the quarterback position? Is former Utah quarterback Brett Ratliff ready to take over? Should the Jets turn to free agency or attempt to trade for a starter?
Our suggestion is to stick with Clemens, whom ESPN analyst Ron Jaworski regarded as better than both Vince Young and Jay Cutler entering the 2006 draft. (Jaws knows a thing or two about quarterbacks.) Research into college quarterbacks conducted by our David Lewin has shown that the only two factors that matter when judging college quarterbacks selected in the first two rounds of the NFL draft are completion percentage and games started.
Clemens completed 61 percent of the passes he threw at Oregon and started 32 games, numbers comparable to those of Eli Manning (60.8 completion percentage, 37 starts) and Drew Brees (61.1 completion percentage, 37 starts) on the high end and Patrick Ramsey (58.9 completion percentage, 32 starts) on the low end.
Merrill Hoge was similarly effusive about Clemens in 2006, but I'm much more likely to actually pay attention to Jaws than Hoge. Hearing from Boland that there might be folks from inside the building that are already passing final judgement on Clemens career strikes me as insane, and only confirms to me that sometimes being too close to something can make one myopic.
Barnwell goes on to further note that McNabb, Palmer, Bledsoe, Peyton and Eli all had worse starts than Clemens in terms of QB ratings and only buttresses the point that the verdict isn't out on Clemens yet and to assume it is is beyond foolish.
Wag of the John Deere trucker hat to Alon Shapiro for sending this on.

In Western New York we see the spirit of giving all year round and it hasn't gone unnoticed here at 2 On Your Side.
2 on Your Side's Theresa DeLuca looks back with a local song-writer's tribute to the city of good neighbors.
Nickel City Hank is a retired bus driver and in his 33 years on the roads of Buffalo he's seen a lot of skilled talented people that are donating their time and energies just from their passion for their home.
"I had an opportunity also to see the people on the streets of with the newspapers for Children's hospital and the firemen passing the boot and these sorts of things really kind of inspired me," Hank said. "If I could send a Christmas card to all these people in Buffalo that are doing all these great things these are the words I'd be saying."
"Christmas is near with another New Year here in Buffalo. Don't the city look pretty all dressed up in Holiday lights. Outside it's snowing. The street lights are glowing here in Buffalo. And the whole town is hopping everybody's out shopping getting ready for Christmas Eve night," Hank said. "Now if I may, I'd just like to say Merry Christmas to the ones who make it feel like Christmas all the year through. You're the reason that we all call Buffalo the city of good neighbors. Merry Christmas my friends and a Happy, Happy New Year to you. Merry Christmas my friends and a happy, happy new year to you."
And we join Hank in wishing all of our good neighbors a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year.
We found out about Hank's song through an email.
And we want to hear about the good neighbors you know in your communities who are making a difference. Let us know by sharing a message with us on our Facebook and Twitter pages.

Ok then rather than hint at your mighty wisdom, please share with us your solution, and indeed the question again as it would appear beyond the understanding of this alcoholic.
So I'll ask again rather than have you hide behind vague program related questions, what can we really help you with that is not going well in your life?
