Hey all, could you give me some recipes or easily found products that will help get the girls through the rest of the year? I've been making a fall sugar syrup but I feel like there could be more to it. Thanks!

Sugar syrup is generally considered an adequate substitute for the bees own honey. As far as a pollen substitute, products like Ultra-Bee (and its competitors ) are reasonable choices.
Note that in a cold environment, bees likely won't consume syrup that is colder than about 50 degree F. Dry sugar is one option when it is cold. More on that here:

Keith Jarrett,
I have been told that you only sell your product in very large quantities. If this is so, most of us will never have the opportunity to try it so we are forced to buy elsewhere or make our own. I have heard that your product is very good but I guess I'll never know.
All things may be lawful; but not all things are advantagous.
Mike, I meant to include a link to Ultra Bee in my post above:
The major bee suppliers all sell similar products, some of them are in-house brands. There are also some independent manufacturers/distributors. One of those independents is Keith, above, and as you can see his product is NUTRA-BEE. However, AFAIK, Nutra-Bee is not available in smaller quantities (less than truckload) in Canada. That is why the posts above have the smileys.
My suggestion is that you determine which pollen sub has the least shipping hassles for you and buy that one as you are in Canada.
Also, I am going to point out that unless you have inspected your hives, adding pollen patties is not necessarily a good thing. You may/may not have potential small hive beetle issues over the winter, but some areas do. SHB just love pollen patties that are not consumed quickly.

Thanks so much guys. The links are super helpful. I'm in Ontario so I think I'm going to try the refined sugar. The hive is small and I think they need a lot of help!
I have a question about the 50 degrees. Is this average, high, etc. I live in southeast VA and in winter we get a lot of random warm days. Is it better to leave dry sugar on and forget about it or leave a top feeder on that they can get to when they want it?
I just posted in another thread, so I just copied it to here:
go to the website, in there is also a link to a video on making candy boards with just sugar and water
use 1 cup of water (with some vinegar) to every 5 pounds of sugar
mix and put in your candy board and let set up for a day before putting on hive
alot easier than heating and no chance of overheating sugar (which is bad for bees)
when I make mine I am going to put a layer of wet sugar down and then instead of a protien patty,
I will put a cup of megabee protien supplement spread out in the middle, then more wet sugar to cover
I just this conversation with a long-time Central VA beekeeper yesterday. He mentioned that you could feed small quantities of warm syrup (made with hot tap) in a jar feeder then and again on the nicer days - if your hives are in the backyard (mine aren't) and desperately short on population/stores. Honey stores and fondant are preferable, however. And you'd have to watch the condensation.
So it's probably possible to feed syrup occasionally, but doesn't sound optimal. I'd be interested what your local beekeepers think since Tidewater is a little warmer/wetter than NoVA.
PS - does this (scroll down to page 5) seem like a good recipe? Got it from the Loudoun County club. Sounds pretty simple.

The San Francisco Giants' struggles keep continuing, as they dropped two more games at home this week to fall out of first place in the National League West division. With just five wins in their last 22 games overall, the Giants head to San Diego this holiday weekend in an attempt to right the ship.
The good news is the S.F. roster will see the return of first baseman Brandon Belt from the injured list today when they take on the Padres at 3:40 p.m. The bad news is that even San Diego is playing better than the Giants right now, as the Pads have won four straight games.
S.F.'s nosedive from the best record in the major leagues to potential also-ran status in less than a month even caught the attention of famed statistician Nate Silver this week, incidentally. Silver's argument? The Giants were lucky early on, and now they're unlucky.
Considering the famous baseball cliché uttered by one-time San Francisco Seals recruit Lefty Gomez—"I'd rather be lucky than good"—the Giants need to be both right now to stem the unfavorable tide that has washed them off the top of the baseball world since June 8.
Irony alert: the only two games S.F. has won in its last ten were games started by hitherto gas-can starter Tim Lincecum. The former Cy Young winner had a 4.90 ERA on June 25th when he took the mound against the Padres and threw a no-hit game. He also tossed eight shutout innings in his next start, against the St. Louis Cardinals earlier this week, to lower his ERA to a solid 4.06 mark for the season.
So while Lincecum's luck may have improved, his teammates' luck continues to stink. And unfortunately for the Giants, the former Freak doesn't pitch again until Sunday.
Belt's return hopefully will help an offense that has struggled lately: the Giants are 22-1 when they hold the opponents to one run or less, but the team is a mere 25-37 when they can't do that. Why? Because the offense needs to score five runs or more for S.F. to have its best chance to win.
When the Giants score only four runs or less, they are 19-34 this season. For a team known for its pitching prowess, the offense hasn't been doing its job.
To wit, S.F. is 18th in runs scored this year (343) and eighth in ERA (3.43). Yes, they are still very much in the postseason hunt, but it doesn't feel like it considering the June Swoon that has continued into July now with the two most recent losses at home to the Cardinals on Wednesday and Thursday when the Giants scored two runs total.
One final thought: San Francisco was able to win the NL West in 2010 and 2012 because they were very good in close games—good pitching with just enough hitting.
This year, that isn't the case. S.F. is only 13-13 in one-run ball games this year. The Giants were 91-66 in such games from 2010-12; they dropped off to just 28-28 last year as they finished under .500 for the first time since 2008.
And it looks like it could be more of the same this year if that .500 trend in one-run games continues, making that hot 42-21 start seem like the mirage Nate Silver made it out to be this week.

Regional carrier Island Air has introduced a new logo featuring the native 'i'iwi bird that will be phased in over the next several months, and also be reflected in Island Air's digital and print communications, collateral, vehicles, and on the airline's 64-seat ATR-72 aircraft.
"The new logo is part of our company's restructuring to align ourselves with an improved and enhanced level of service," Island Air CEO Paul Casey said Tuesday in a statement. "It symbolizes a revitalized company with deep roots in Hawaii and a strong commitment to the community and our customers."
Signage with the new logo already has been installed at airport ticket counters in Honolulu, Lihue, Kahului, Lanai and Molokai. The new logo was designed by Wall-to-Wall Studios in Honolulu.

Bond appears with baggy trousers and floppy hair - not quite the suave charmer he is destined to become.
The family of Bond author Ian Fleming commissioned illustrator Kev Walker to create the image.
It is hoped the picture will be used on the second of the Young Bond books, created by comic Charlie Higson with the Fleming family's blessing.
The first book of the series, SilverFin, was released earlier this month.
Set in the early 1930s, the novel features the junior secret agent as a schoolboy at Eton - Fleming's own school.
Mortal enemy
In the book, Bond makes a mortal enemy in American student George Hellebore, the son of a wealthy arms dealer carrying out sinister experiments on humans.
Higson, who co-wrote comedy the Fast Show, said: "The hardest thing when writing SilverFin was picturing the young Bond in my mind.
"We have so many different images of Bond as a man, what would he have looked like as a boy? Now I know what he looks like.
"Kev's also done a fantastic job of making the `30s look cool and exciting for a modern audience. Young Bond and his world have really come alive."
But the news of a junior Bond series has outraged many fans across the world.
"The James Bond websites were furious," Higson said after the release of the first book.
"Their attitude was `You can't make James Bond a kid - he's a drinking, smoking, womanising assassin. Ian Fleming would turn in his grave'."

Al long time ago I ran an 82 camaro on the street with a very mild 400 smallblock{actually a low mileage junkyard shortblock with a top end bolted on it and some nitrous},and it was dressed to look like a stock berlinetta with a 305,and even had a stock 9 bolt rear with 3.27 gears.The car ran 12.80's on motor and 12.0's on a 125 shot.A freind of mine who I raced with had a daily driver 82 camaro with a 2.8 and a stick,and we had both made fistfulls of cash with my car at the street races.One night we ran a $20 race for *****s and giggles,and I spotted him out 150 feet before the finish line,and I was to leave off of his brake lights{I had to run the entire 1/4 to his 150 feet!},I had to run raw horsepower.I opened my hatch and he turned the bottle off and we set up the cars.I turned it loose when he rolled and I ran thru about 20 feet behind him at the finish line.I knew he had ben rolling with his foot on the brake,but I didnt want to make an issue of it,so I ran my car all the way to the end of the strip and opened the hatch and turned the bottle on,while he had already made the first U-turn and was on his way back to the starting line.I went back to the line and told him he rolled on the start and that I would do it again for another $20.He took the bait and we lined back up.I drove around him in the last 50 feet of the race like his engine stalled out.He claimed I rode by so hard that his car seemed to rock over from the wind.I rode all the way to the end again and turned off the bottle and came back to the line.He told me I shot it and he wanted to see the bottle.I opened the hatch and he handed over the 20 bucks.I eventually leveled with him and we both laughed about it.

If I had to do the job again, I'd probably purchase a hex key socket and use it with my 1/2" socket wrench or a breaker bar. The pocketknife style multi-hex key tool that I used got the job done, but it was far from ideal. My hands were sore for a few days after I changed the link. I think the hex key is an odd size though, maybe 6.5 mm? I don't remember what the exact size was, so you might want to keep this in mind if you plan on purchasing one.
I would use the box wrench or vise grips to hold the nut in place while trying to turn the hex key. I know that the space is somewhat confined, but if you can find a way to add a cheater bar or brace the wrench somehow, it would help.
I'll save you plenty of time and angst. I ran into the same problem when replacing the struts on the front of my 05 Pilot. Get a reciprocating saw and a new blade and just cut in between the ball joint and the mating surface of the item it attaches to. It merely brushed the surface of the strut and sway bar, but sliced the link attachment rod clean in half. Replace with new. Total time = 5 minutes.
Cut. Them. Off.
Dremel, grinder, Sawzall, or cut-off wheel - choose your poison.
I have worked in two garages, and NEVER did we ever attempt to remove the stabilizer links in the same fashion that they were installed. It takes 10 minutes to cut off four stabilizer links and over an hour to attempt to get them off using wrenches, sockets, etc.
Don't even attempt to remove the nuts from the stabilizer links - it's a waste of time. The new links come with replacement nuts, there's no reason to try to get the old ones off.
FWIW - the hex key head in the stabilizer link bolt is only there to TIGHTEN the nut and prevent the bolt/ball socket from spinning. It's not there to aid in removal.

It's funny. When you leave your home and wander really far, you always think, 'I want to go home.' But then you come home, and of course it's not the same. You can't live with it, you can't live away from it. And it seems like from then on there's always this yearning for some place that doesn't exist. I felt that. Still do. I'm never completely at home anywhere.

DMK against new civil services exam norms
Karunanidhi said his party has been demanding making all regional languages as official languages of the Indian union.
Chennai: Accusing the central government of trying to impose Hindi by making changes in the civil services exam norms, DMK president M Karunanidhi on Tuesday urged Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to withdraw the notification as it would filter out candidates from rural India.
In a letter to the prime minister, the text of which was released to the media, Karunanidhi said, "The changes notified by the UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) are being construed as obvious steps to impose Hindi. This is a serious violation of the assurance given by Pandit (Jawaharlal) Nehru to our nation."
He said the norm change would lead to an unhealthy and unequal competition among rural and urban students.
According to Karunanidhi, the restriction on choosing regional language for writing the exam only when there is a minimum of 25 candidates is a major blow to rural aspirants.
He said the condition that civil service aspirants had to give the main exams in the medium of instruction in their degree course would also filter out a large number of candidates opting to write in the regional languages.
Karunanidhi said his party has been demanding making all regional languages as official languages of the Indian union.

Date of Stay: August, 2014
This campground is quite popular among local families who visit the beach on weekends. Perhaps it is because of the mixed group (i.e., bathers and campers) that the owners impose such strict rules on visitors. We were in the area to see old friends. Despite our friends' advanced age, the owners made them park their vehicle by the office and walk a few hundred yards to our campsite. The same thing happened to the RVers next to us. In addition, any visitor must leave the campground by 7:30 PM. We were told that there was Wi-Fi, but none could be detected at our site.
Date of Stay: August, 2014
Our experience has not been as positive as others who have stayed here. I believe that the particular site assigned, as well as the length of time one stays, makes a significant difference in the quality of the site. Once we indicated that we were staying just overnight, and then on our way, no full hookups were available. Water and electric only. A dump station is present on the campground. However, our site, #81, is raised, narrow and uneven, from front to back as well as from side to side. Difficult to get our coach leveled. A positive note is that the site is out in the open, allowing our satellite dish to lock on to a signal. I doubt that we would return unless nothing else was available.
Date of Stay: July, 2014
Just a mile from the quaint village of Ontonagon, this park is right on the south shore of Lake Superior and has several lake front sites (we think the best are #11 and 12). The sandy beach is safe for young and old and alike. Although none of the sites have sewer, the dump station is easily accessible from either direction. Most sites are heavily wooded, but there are a few from which a satellite signal can be obtained. The lake front sites are limited to 9 to 16 days, but very nice sites located just 30 yards from the lake are available for the whole summer. This is a great park. Sites are all "first-come-first served", i.e., no reservations. Camp manager and staff are very cordial and helpful.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
When I read in travel catalogs that this was "Washington's #1 RV Park", I had a certain level of expectation. Sign at entrance was faded, hard to see, went right past entrance. The park is clean, utilities well located for rigs of all sizes. If you have a satellite dish (for TV or internet) you shouldn't have any problem getting a signal. Most sites are wide open with just short trees. The biggest detraction is the train noise. I have never been in a park that had so many trains, passenger and freight, go by in a 24 hour period. I thought they would stop at night. No luck. It's just a small thing, but with all the "one way" signs in the roads to sites, there isn't a single "Exit" sign in the whole park, as large as it is. In the future we would look for an RV park farther away from these train tracks.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
Chinook RV Resort is strategically located,right on the Klamath River, about 1/4 mile from the mouth of the river, across from an island and from part of the Redwoods National Park. The Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park is south of Klamath and Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park is north. It's a quiet park, where the staff are very accommodating. Every night the staff prepares a fire in the ring on the deck overlooking the river. There is no longer cable TV. Apparently the cable company pulled out of Klamath. However, with most of the sites out in the open, a satellite dish gets great reception. Speaking of reception, there is little, if any, AT&T phone signal in Klamath, but Verizon is strong. You have to go north about 20 miles to Crescent City to get AT&T phone reception. The other utilities in the RV park are excellent. There is a tackle shop and fish cleaning facilities close to the river's edge. We wouldn't hesitate to return to Chinook.
Date of Stay: September, 2010
This was our first stay at this RV Resort. The name "Resort" really does fit this RV Park. It is one of the nicest facilities in which we have ever (7 years of RV'ing) stayed. We stayed in a premium (waterfront) site, which was not really that expensive, given the lovely grounds, large size of the concrete pads, room for our toad, and a deck overlooking the intracoastal waterway. Access to this park is quick and easy. The staff provided us with a golf cart to look at the available sites and decide which one would best fit our needs. We haven't been afforded that opportunity very often.
Date of Stay: September, 2010
This county RV Park was a very pleasant surprise. Has remarkable facilities for families (a water park, fishing/crabbing docks, climbing walls), for RV owners with dogs, and for big rigs. The park is only 10 minutes from the historic district of downtown Charleston.
Date of Stay: September, 2010
This park is easy to reach from I-95 without having to deal with small city streets and tight intersections. The RV sites are arranged in an "L" and are wide open, unobstructed, if you want good satellite coverage. The family owners live on the plantation and take pride in maintaining and improving the RV park. Good WiFi, but no cable TV. The Savannah Trolley Tour comes right into the RV Park at 9 AM and drops people off at 4:30. Very convenient.
Date of Stay: August, 2010
This park is about 12 miles south of Athens, GA. It is heavily wooded, but accessible, even for bigger (~36') rigs. Owner family lives on site and is very accommodating. This is a good place to stay if you want to visit the University of Georgia and/or are interested in visiting the historic town of Madison, GA.
Date of Stay: August, 2010
This is a very nice park, only a few miles from the Outer Banks and Nags Head. Many sites front on the lake and are open for satellite signals. The WiFi is good. The only drawback is the resident Canadian Geese Population (about a dozen geese) occasionally "deposit" near your coach, forcing you to be cautious when walking around it. We will definitely return to this park in the future.
Date of Stay: August, 2010
This park is about 12 miles south of Brevard up a winding, mountain road. Access into the park road is a difficult, very sharp left turn (for 36' or longer motorhomes). RV sites are scattered along steep graded trails. A large, fairly open circle is available for big rigs. The listed WiFi is only functional if you take your laptop near the office or the laundromat. No signal at the RV sites. The owners are pleasant and accommodating.
Date of Stay: August, 2009
Although relatively small and compact, this is a unique campground: extremely well designed to allow a maximum number of RV's in a small area. Each site is paved and has it's own roofed shelter/deck with picnic table, grill and view of the river channel that bisects the Keweenaw Peninsula. Adjacent to the campground is a very interesting and unusual child's playground and a public boat ramp.
Date of Stay: August, 2009
Despite not being "waterfront" this park has several sites with excellent views of the north shore of Lake Michigan, as the sites are elevated above the road and just across the road from the lake. A short path takes you directly to the rocky shoreline, affording views of spectacular sunsets and of the Mackinaw Bridge (at five miles long, is one of the longest in the world). Extremely convenient is the fact that the ferries to Mackinaw Island provide a free shuttle service that comes directly to the Lakeshore Park Campground and will also take your personal bicycles to and from the ferry. If you have your own satellite dish on your RV, many of the sites provide clear access.
Date of Stay: July, 2009
This campground was a pleasant surprise: located right on the St. Mary's River, just east of the the "Soo Locks", with enormous freighters steaming right in front of the campground in both directions. When one checked in, you were given an informational sheet that showed the identifying profiles of each type of ship, their length, tonnage, and an explanation as to what each carried. The campground was clean and well-cared for. We would definitely stay there again. Coming from the south there is a "short-cut", eliminating the need to go through the middle of town, but if coming from Ontario, you must cross the international bridge and go right on the main business street to get to the campground, which is just 2-3 miles east of downtown. That said, there are no sharp turns necessary for big rigs. Our 36' motorhome pulling a car had no difficulties.
Date of Stay: August, 2008
Hidden behind the motel, many of the sites were in mud puddles. Otherwise, it was clean, sites were level. Diesel fuel sold in front of the motel was the highest ($6.08/gal) I've paid in Canada. It's big-rig friendly.

Nicest park in or around NW Atlanta area that we have found. Friendly management, very decent spots. Well maintained.
Date of Stay: June, 2014
Staff is friendly and helpful - no problem here. Facility is nice enough - not too dusty for unpaved roads; plenty of kids activities if you have them; close to town and bike trails; water pressure, and electric current good and stable. So, why not a higher rating? 1. Water sprinklers for grass areas are relatively uncontrolled - at least in the spots around our area. They leave mineral water on the cars, and RVs. 2. Policies regarding adult temporary visitors for a couple of hours/dinner seem oppressive. Can't understand why they should have to pay for access when they don't even use the facilities. Also disappointing is the fact they can't bring their small dog to visit.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
Nice location, close in to town. Sites were a little small, but manageable. Lots of shade, and a friendly staff. We would certainly consider staying here on the next trip through the area.

A very nice park, close to town. Beach is clean and nice. Nice and friendly staff, with owners on site and involved. We would certainly stay here again when in the area.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
We love this RV park for a variety of reasons - large RV sites, beautiful open spaces, PERFECT location for many of Mt Rushmore's area activities, and a friendly staff. Only negative we have experienced is the small and cramped laundry room. We would definitely stay here again, and will recommend it to our RVing friends.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
A really nice park in a great location. All aspects of this park were nice. We would certainly choose this location on our next trip through the area. We especially liked the walking distance to Manitou Springs,and the Red Rock Canyon area.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
Beautiful views, reasonably close to town, great location for Rocky Mt. Nat park, plus friendly and helpful work staff. So, it would be hard to not love this park, except for the "invasion of the ground squirrels" and the poor condition of the roads. The roads can be blamed on short season / tough weather. The squirrels generally drive litte dogs crazy. We would come back, but hope that the invasion can be reversed somehow.
Date of Stay: March, 2010
This park has outstanding access to the sites in town: a 1 minute walk to the OK Coral. Very cordial hosts; who were very helpful. For the area, we thought this was a perfect place to visit Tombstone. The only negative is that it is a little cramped for space; but for a short stay, it was perfect.
Date of Stay: February, 2010
Although a nice park, it is only slightly above average. We stayed a week, and enjoyed the stay. Overall it's about average for an RV park, but maybe the best in the area for facility and amenities. One complaint for our fellow travelers with dogs: there are stickers/sand-spurs in the grass area; so be careful to keep a sharp eye out for where your canine companions walk. This is our only negative.
Date of Stay: January, 2010
After RVing through 40 states, this is our best experience of anywhere; and we have had some very nice ones over the past five years. This park has very nice facilities, with ownership understanding what it takes to be "world-class". We planned to stay two weeks, and ended-up staying 2 months. We will certainly come back to the Buckhorn on our next trip through Texas, because we have already made our reservations for next December.
Date of Stay: December, 2009
We really enjoyed staying at the Vineyards. It's central location to the Metroplex makes it easy to tour the area; and the main street of Grapevine is nice to visit. Our only reason for not rating this park higher is that only a few sites have all hookups (sewer); and there is no cable TV, which makes satellite signal variable depending on the trees around your site. Some of the sites are not very level, but we all deal with that on occasion.

It's time for another GT5 Seasonal Event – the latest of which features Mazda's ever-popular MX-5 sports cars. Races take place at the following locations, in eligible roadsters of 450PP or less:
Note the Online Car Dealership does not appear to have been updated, nor have any new Time or Drift Trials been introduced. As always, head on over to our GT5 Seasonal Events forum for more analysis and discussion. Thanks to slashfan7964 for the early tip!
GT5 Photomode image by gtsteviiee.
Comments are now closed. Visit our forums for more discussion.
I shouted a sad laugh while reading the combo of cars and track.
This is litteraly a sad joke. But at least its better then nothing.
I'd rather see new DLC like tracks…
Does PD really think they can humour us wioth these seasonal events that are done within ~30 minutes?…
I am getting more and more bored..
PD, come on and release some new tracks!
thanks in advance…
Ughh…I might wash myself out of this room with my own vomit if I have to hear more of this filthy troll non-sense. Sell your game to someone who likes Gran Turismo…Go away. Any seasonal event is welcomed by me. If you're not interested in the event, don't play it.
I totally agree! Not that I am not looking forward to the endurance saves ect but i welcome seasonals of all kind!
Don't flame me for this,but can we have nitrous back from GT4.
Do race cars use nitrous?
and the decent minimal HUD. The GT5 minimal is unusable on standard cars.
we need a go kart seasonal
GOOD idea!
That is exactly what we need!
Using the SR-Limited '97 with 223hp 450pp managed a 52.500 fastest lap. Still tweaking the LSD and suspension. 3.360 final gear, top speed set at 130.
There are so many different models of Mazda mx5s. Which one should I choose to do this event with.
P.s. Not just the fastest but also the most fun as well.
Well, if you're looking for a challenge, I'd go with any of the 89 models, as they tend to have the least ammount of power.
Most fun would be the premium ones of course!
Seems like everyone loves MX5s. Why can I never find MX5 races online under EU/AUS.
To me, the people happily getting their MX-5s with such enthusiasm are the real fans. Kazunori loves cars, any car to be clear. This game is for the love of cars not for fitting each and every one of your expectations and make the game perfect. By the way if you want a challenge in this game, go to Arcade Mode, select professional class, get out a Formula Gran Turismo and select Nurburgring GP/F course and put it on real tire wear, heavy damage and 3 laps. Try to beat the AI without cutting anywhere on the track. If you do this assuming you had on Racing Soft tires, try Racing Hard tires to match what the AI is using :) Btw watch out because some of the AI randomly crash from overdoing a line from that new update. Good luck!
yeah that's true indeed my mate.. I love racing my Miata (low powered) and racing in sports soft. :) The people who usually say "Oh bla bla is my favorite car" well, that's not a real ENTHUSIAST that's why when some people ask me what's my favorite car in GT5 or in real life, i always say "I dont have any favorites. I like a thousands of them" haha cheers!
Well said indeed sir.
@RPM: I agree, I do have a favorite, but I do love all cars. I will bash Lambo occasionally because I love Ferrari but that just comes hand-in-hand :)
@Newfie: Thank you good sir.
Ridiculous: if you love cars, then there must be cars you hate. If you love music, there must be musics you hate…..etc…
Fed up with these comments about how GT is for car lovers and, if you don't love every crappy car it has to offer, then you are not a car lover.
Some cars are an insult to the love you can feel for cars in general. Mostly all the cars (i mean, mass production cars) are just made of bits taken from other models in order to… MAKE MONEY! The passion for cars is not shared by car manufacturers man. The passion for money is. They are people who make cars as they would make fridges or washing machines.
Asfor you assumption about Yamauchi loving cars… i guess he does (more than his job for I can see…)…but he doesn't drive a Cappuccino does he?
For the seasonal events: as long as it's optional, I have no problem with proposing the worst cars ever. I just won't play it.
YES. A reason to put Blood Stone:007 on hold for a while. This will be my favorite seasonal event of all time, naturally.
I race with mx5 08
Fun half an hour …..not more …
HOLY CRAP! There are !34! Miatas' in this game! WOOOOOOOOOOOW! Mega LAME!
I think that just max of 5 Miatas are too many…
Why not a rally seasonal event? I would play that no matter the credits!
This +10000000000000000
Come on PD, GT5 has no WRC license!!! We are not idiots!!!
Dear PD,
This +1000000000000000
It would be even more informative if you told us how much we get in credits for each race
No way more time in the MX5!! It is fun to drive but I get flashbacks to doing 4 hours in it! World compact car seasonal wasnt that great either, i lowered my pp to same as the oppinents and put crappy tyres on and still blitzed everyone???
Autumn Mini and Tsukuba! I love them for this kind of car. Personally if I never saw Trial Mountain and SS5 ever again it would bother me one bit.
I bet the dlc will adress everyones needss once it comes out
Agreed….I just hope they have taken advantage of the RUF licence. Have you checked the cars they are knocking out on their website?
I'll be shocked if they don't include at least one in any future DLC, especially as Forza 4 has a few of them lined up already…. fingers crossed guys!!!
yeah that's true.. I mean, I don't whine alot about GT5 but knowing that there are hints about DLC, I am wishing that there should be Porsche and Audi RS4.. Hopefully a BMW M3 CSl is a premium, Toyota Supra 97, etc.. Like Nissan Silvia S14 premium,(great drift car) and many more amazing cars in standards which needs to be premium. Oh I forgot, about tracks too way back in GT1-GT4. A lot to mention. But majorly, hopefully about those hints we saw in the posts before about Pikes Peak Climb? Hmmm…
The seasonal is better than nothing I guess. I'm still enjoying the 1 lap of nurburgring in British Lightweights. By far the most fun way of earning credits.
….on a different note, has anyone noticed someone is missing from the comments section?… lol
Me of course.
Very funny btw.
Nice race, but seriously what about the rest of courses in the game, it's like we see the same 5 courses being recycled for every seasonal. Oh and GT2 had the Random Event generator that opens up once you complete the race events with all golds. Pretty nice thing, but PD needs to allow the AI to mod their cars to match my cars' PP and stop with the rolling starts and give us max grid 16 instead of 12 opponents. I don't really feel like using the MX5, but I might do a race or two if only to get racing suits, why on earth is the set up for presents always the same, Helmet, suit, helmet, suit, helmet? switch it up PD geez, where is the random stuff and fix that bloody draft.
I'm not doing this one… ¬¬
yeah true.. IF there would be DLC, I hope there will be Seattle, Twin Ring Motegi, Mid Field, and the Pikes Peak Climb
Didn't we just do 4 hours of Tsukuba in Miatas…? Now they want us to do more? And I still have to do the 9 hour one. Screw Tsukuba, screw A-Spec endurance races, screw GT5. Wake me up when the PS4 and GT6 are out. I can't even have an enjoyable arcade race. No matter what I choose, I'm always put up against the SAME 3 CARS: Bugatti Veyron, Mclaren F1, Cadillac Cien. I have to choose a car with under 400hp just to get out of that group. And if we can change settings of weather/time cycle online, why can't we do so in arcade? Stupid things, very easy to patch, stupid, annoying things.
GT6 will be on PS3
One track i really miss is the very beautiful El Capitan, one of my favorites from GT4
agreed mate
Agreed agreed! El Capitan in the Toyota Minolta race car…… Sigh
At least it's not Sarthe :-)
funny how tracks are very personal; love/hate. I dont really like Tsukuba, but ya can't please everyone I guess. I miss a few tracks from GT4.
i love seatle, the jumps are legandary :D
At least it seems that the Seasonal events are back to be 1 each thursday, so thats good news.
kinda disapointed they have no NB premium car. I wish they woulda came out with one for this race. maybe in another update I can only hope. NC, not so great in my book.
I agree with that. They should have had the more relevant versions of the Miata in premium. An '01 at least. '04 would be awesome.
Yeaaaaa! being a 2002 miata owner this is good news. Mazda RULES!!!
True, I regret selling my 89/90 in nearmint condition. Never had a problem, except, I couldn't carry any music gear anywhere. Miss that fun car with a hearty exhaust note.
What did you guys thought? We'll get any extra stuff? lol
This game is going to be a legend. The legend of Tsukuba and the large number of same standard cars.. cool :)
Yay another POS seasonal event. Miatas….really?
One of the best cars in the game.
Amazingly fun and great handling. It's like a kart to me. I love it.
Nice i finally get to use my fat white guy midlife crisis car got 20 of these damn things
Cool, but bring back classic tracks (don't care anymore if they are redone in hd or not), GT4's tuning upgrades, and more cars from 2005 to 2012. Nothing else matters nearly as much. Don't want hel
Helmets or mid race saves. We want cars, tracks, and much more tuning options!
How about instead of giving us CLOTHING which we CANNOT EVEN SEE, we get a voucher for a new car? That would definitely make me more willing to actually do these weekly Tsukuba runs.
Replays, driving arms and certain cars will show off your apparel. So you CAN SEE, you just have to LOOK. Complaining over free content, I just don't get it.
I'd rather have adjustable position in cockpit view – UP- DOWN- FORWARD- BACK- And no, 3 FOV adjustments are not the same at all. I feel like I'm in the back seat looking through binocular in some cars. I'd rather have option to remove wheel too- I don't need to see 2 wheels, I have a G25 and 52" Aquos for reference.
Anyone heard any news on the update 1.11
Mid race saves still definitely the thing I want most of all in gt5!
I like that they keep uploading new seasonals though
We could do with ones a bit more interesting though
Oh.. I've completely forgotten about the new (now 1 week old) time/drift trials! >_< Last OCD update was rubbish, let's hope for a good update next time. And I sure wish we could get a little less restricted seasonal event, PP restrictions is good enough, at least every now and then.
Yosha! Now I get to use my Touge Roadster!
Kaz loves Japanese cars. The end.
In fact it's not the end, not until PD has made a seasonal which individual involves every puny low pp/bhp japanese car. (especially K-Cars).
Kaz is a genius for sure… He's just has the same problem as the director of avaatar. He doesn't have the technology to make his ideas come to life (:
Yet Steven Spielberg could've made the same movie 25 years ago with muppets. So much for that.
No Mazda at Suzuka!!!
Not again!!
I ment Tsububa ey ;)
Well done PD, another Boring low cred Dumb AI Same Tracks Seasonal Event. This like GT5P. A-Spec is pretty ridiculous as its always been with low rewards but the seasonal events are just boring. No DLC's yet but mean to be on the way very soon. Increase the damn Cred rewards use more tracks in seasonal event races there are like plenty to choose from…..duh!! and make the AI smarter for crying out loud!! RaceOn 07 the AI are aggressive, overtake you and brake test. Other Race games also do similar things but I feel that the AI are made to be Docile and Dumb for all the new comers. The training Wheels are still on with GT5 I think.
Yeah, I have noticed that on the Supercar festival, the Veyron can be taken out by a 520 HP evo n I'm talking straight stretches but the Zonda is always faster eventhough it has like 400HP, yeah probably power to weight ratio stuff, but I'm pretty sure that veyron should be hard to catch.
Yawnnnn. Same $#!&, different day. At least the trolls are predictable, but I wish they'd come up with a new bit. They're really getting pitiful now. They've got to respond to their own posts just because nobody else is interested anymore. Sad.
A Miata on Tsukuba… A Miata again… I got a feeling that this Kazunori guy is defying a concept called "stubbornness", to say the least.
Keep the good work Kaz!
Keep the good work PD!
Kill GT ASAP!
Wait, this man is so ahead of time, he is genius, he will give us something amazing in GT6, or GT7, have faith, he has proven time after time that he has the most amazing genius ideas, and procedures. Right now, he is thinking if the new helmets should have a little pink, and a little yellow on the sides, and that absorbs all his time. Noe, the problem for him to choose, and what is making him take so long, is that the current technology doesn't allow 320 million shades of yellow and 450 million shades of pink at the same time. That is why we always should wait loyal for his genius offerings. All my admiration and respect for Kazunori Yamauchi; Leonardo da Vinci or Plato are idiots next to him.
Hold on, maybe Einstein is on par with him, no… not even Einstein.
^^ Forever alone
Hate to break this to you, but nobody cares about the way you feel over 'Kaz'. You're acting as if you have just broke up with him after a long relationship. Seriously, if it's affecting you this much, you should see a psychiatrist, because quite frankly, if you don't like a game, what do you do? DEAL WITH IT.
Lol, this is so much fun…
Yup. Biffy, you're right. The boy needs to save his soul.
On a much softer note, GT5 is still fun for me.
And we've haven't had Tsukuba constantly anymore. PD does listen. This is the first since way back when.
That we've had Tsukuba that is.
[Chad: lol, this is so much fun…] *Shakes head pitifully *
I wanna shoot myself in the face. Cause that would be more pleasant than driving a Miata around the damn tsukuba ring. Seriously, can we have some more f1 races or I don't know maybe some 20 lap 675pp races. WTF polyphony I love yall but you make it hard. Really hard. Bastards.
Well, I wouldn't say bastards, but they do seem to lack any imagination.. Like especially, why are races always 5 or so laps? WTFPD- Why not give us a 20 to 30 lap seasonal with tire wear, and pit stop required, etc.. something, ANYthing different. Oh well.
That pic really looks real, err… not from GT5.
Looks GT5 to me. Anything specific that looks wrong? Might be from editing.
lol of course its GT5 look at the choppy edges around the lights lol they couldnt even fix that to make it smoother
Those lights are supposed to look jakked like that… its becuase the back of the plastic of the light has a raised pyramid surface to it to diffuse the light…
Um, just meant it's a very REALISTIC GT5 pic.
@Sinister: It's jaggy because they did not have enough of a polygon count to make the best looking interior views and out car detail to make it all smooth. Even Forza and Shift have jaggy edges. It's not that they couldn't smooth it. They need more polygons, which comes with a revamp of the engine, which comes with more time, which comes with people complaining even more than now.
@I splain it: Yeah he meant the outside of the light around it where it's all jaggy or whatever.
Hairdressers cup o haaaayyyyy
(will get flamed)
Only by flamers.
My first car was actually a MX-5 Miata VR 96′. Very smooth cars to drive, and cheap.
Sweet – I've collected all the Mazda roadsters plus I drive one IRL so this a very welcome event.
I highly recommend anyone trying one out for real and not just in the game – it's not by accident the Miata's/MX-5's have so many "Car of the year" and top ranks on all sorts of lists.
PS. Dodge Viper vs. MX-5. Maybe if the Viper cost the same, was as reliable and cheap to run AND most importantly by magic lost a lot of weight and became as nimble as the MX-5.
Depends on who makes the lists. Alot of those awards and ranks go to the car whose manufacturer bought the most advertising, or services, from the people giving the award. Not always, but more often than people realize. Same goes for a number of other products besides cars.
Nope it doesn't. No bribing, no advertising, no services. The Miata/Roadster/MX-5 is just that good IRL. Seriously. Go to a Mazda dealer and drive one. NOW!
Well, if you want to drive the same car as your haird resser buy an Mx5 ;) If you want a bit more power get an S2000.
I will never touch a Japanese car in real life. At least I hope.
Great! Another dreary seasonal, in cars that i never use. Why would anyone enjoy spending a great deal of time in an MX-5?
And, before you start going on about how MX-5s are "so much fun! (:)! :D! <3!)" i'll ask this question: Dodge Viper or Mazda MX-5?
In other words: A Massive amount of SIMPLE enjoyment or A-bit of SIMPLE fun?
Personally, I have fun with both. But eh, to each his own I guess.
I enjoyed spending a lot of time in my mx-5 on the road, it's far from dreary i can assure you of that :p
I like this seasonal :)
You don't HAVE to do the damn seasonal, at least it exists.
And to answer your question, Mazda MX-5.
This is probaly the reason why it's there. Cars tha people won't use. Admittedly since the NR endurance race I haven't touch the little roadsters, infact I am not a big fan. Buts it's making the game community use the cars that you more or less would never use, Instead of using the sporty, popular cars all the time.
I for one would love to see a Kart seasonal but not on the small tracks. How about 16 cart races on the Nurburgring 24 hour track two laps, on The Le Mans track Monaco Tsukuba and a custom made Toscana track. I have tried it online but it got mixed feeling about it. I really enjoyed doing it. It's different then having to use the fast cars from the game. I get my enjoyment from the game by doing stuff like that and not having to grind away on the Ferrari / Le Mans 4 minute race. It took me 30 minutes to do the 5 races last night and in that went fro 7.8 million to around just over 9 million.
Time to bring out my old roadster again. I do like the SS5 track.
Listen to me Kaz :
Why dont you introduce à random race and appropriate opponents depending our car , like before ??? In gt2 i think
This + 100000000
great idea!!!
All those circuits to choose from and we get Tsukuba again. I've been a real defender of this game over the past few months, but even I feel this lacks a bit of imagination.
I wonder why they can't run online race tourney's? Also why no Kart Races in Seasonal? That would be a nice change of pace…..
Guess its time i run something else other than that one Ferrari race. You guys know which one…
i have the mis-fortune of not being in front of my PS3, so no, i don't know. Care to share the info?
@Mugo, I take it you're joking, but if not, He's on about ferrari seasonal le sarthe. (3:25 1 lap for 511,000 credits).
lol yes did that race atleast 20 times a day
tsukuba in an MX-5? I've a feeling i've been here before…
yeah man lol :D, 4hours of the bloddy thing, dont remind me ;)
I love tsukuba
Tsukuba the best drift track in gt5
Woo… More Tsukuba…
But hey, at least it will be races with the funnest of roadsters. XD
Tsukuba <3
One of my favorites!, Wish there was a Twin Ring Motegi :(
Awesome, buying a Miata…er…Eunos right now.
what? you dont own a single mx5 yet? Am I the only one who has about 15 of the damn things.
You cant say anything, I have 21 of those things just because collection xD
I see your 21 and I raise you 30.
Don't feel bad, I have a Veyron, 3 Ford GTs, 2 Lambos, 8 GT-Rs and in the 150 cars I currently have, not one is an MX-5. Problem is; there's way to many of them! Which one do you choose to max out?
So, apparently the word that the community feels it has done more than enough laps on Tsukuba hasn't reached PD yet…
Good to see semi-regular updates again though :)
Given the name, you'd think, but guess not.
haha it's not about the name. :p it's about how you see in the post.
I'm the first one to comment! Nice but why there's no " Laguna Seca? :)
+1 about Laguna…

Club, through their charity City in the Community, and local
employment providers MatchWorks and Employment Services Group
A new shared supported disability accommodation was officially
opened yesterday in front of local community in Frankston's
MatchWorks Work for the Dole (WfD) job seekers have assisted in
the design and creation of a transportable 9-hole mini golf course
for the Frankston City Council North Hangout. The golf course,
named Peninsula Sandtrap, was unveiled yesterday at a celebratory
event at Frankston North Community Centre.
Parents from the Geelong region have been enrolled by MatchWorks
in a fun 7-week cooking course as part of the MatchWorks Principal
Carer Parent Program.The parents, who are preparing to return to
work, are completing the home cooking course at Jamie's Ministry of
Food in Geelong in order to develop skills required to make healthy
meals for their families in a time efficient manner. Last week they
learnt how to cook chicken fajitas from scratch.
MatchWorks DES sites in Victoria and South Australia have
received their performance results for the end of the December 2016
Star Rating period. Some highlights include the Preston, Flemington
and Morphett Vale (SA) sites receiving the maximum 5 stars, while
Corio, Torquay, Ocean Grove, Elizabeth (SA), and Broadmeadows sites
achieved 4 stars.
Barwon region participants and support workers have shared their
stories in a new book which explores the dynamics of the
relationship between young people with a disability and their
support workers.
A Ringwood restaurant has teamed with MatchWorks to host an
evening of disability employment promotion, which has been
described as a "raging success". A group of eight MatchWorks
Disability Employment Services (DES) clients participated in the

'America's Most Endangered River'
"American Rivers says the Catawba-Wateree system is at the center of a clash between development in the Southeast and a limited water supply - and without better state management, everyone will suffer.
American Rivers chose the Catawba-Wateree as the nation's most endangered because it is the best example in the South of a waterway facing growth and limited water supplies, officials said.
The American Rivers report, which lists nine other imperiled rivers, focuses on preserving water supplies for millions of residents, businesses and recreational users in the booming basin from above Charlotte [North Carolina] to near Columbia [South Carolina]. It says neither state is doing enough to conserve water and control river withdrawals."

If the checks don't show up within three business days, he says they'll be considered lost and new checks will be issued.

Belle Harbor Native Featured In Upcoming Go Green EXPO
In keeping with earth month festivities, Noreen Mulvanerty, a Belle Harbor Nurse Practitioner, Herbalist and CEO of Herbal Intervention proudly announces that her revolutionary new product, "Omyst," will be featured at the prestigious Go Green Expo, taking place at the Hilton Hotel from April 17 to 19, in New York City.
"Omyst" is an all-natural medicinal spray made from 100 percent organically grown calendula, yarrow, plantain and wild roses in alcohol and has been clinically proven to aid in the treatment of minor cuts, burns, scratches, rashes, insect bites, stings, sutures and even more serious skin conditions such as shingles and psoriasis.
In a statement Mulvanerty said, ""Omyst" is a perfect fit for the health and beauty section of the Go Green Expo. We are delighted to be introducing it to health conscious public as well as media and those interested in learning more about effective methods of treating minor wounds."
Expected guests in attendance throughout the three day convention include, environmentalist Ed Begley Junior, Josh Dorfman, Mariel Hemingway, Nigel Barker & many more.
Mulvanerty further states "My goal is to educate people on wound care. I have treated and sutured thousands of cuts and burns in New York emergency rooms and air is essential to rejuvenation. I became distressed to discover the leading topical application actually delayed wound healing causing an alarmingly high rate of infection. I believe my spray is the first of its kind as it contains all the essential healing components and is much cleaner and easier to apply than messy salves and ointments, which are often misapplied. The constituents also provide anti-itch and anti-inflammatory properties and reduces pain on contact," stated Mulvanerty.
World-renowned herbalist and author Susun Weed commented, "I expect "Omyst" to revolutionize the primary care for a wound in hospitals and homes throughout the U.S. and hopefully around the world." Herbal Intervention and "Omyst" will be featured at the Go Green Expo at The Hilton Hotel in New York, 53rd Street and 6th Avenue on April 17 to 19, 2009
Herbal Intervention, LLC was founded in 2001 by Noreen Mulvanerty, RN, MSN, CS, FNP to provide holistic medical care for individuals seeking to improve the quality of their health. The company is headquartered on Beach 129 Street. In addition to being a medical and herbal consultant firm, they also manufacture their own plant-based medicines. Herbal Intervention, LLC also offers a variety of holistic therapies including: acupressure, herbology, yoga, massage, botanical facial peels, and holistic health & nutrition counseling. "Omyst" is their first product.
The Go Green Expo is the nation's premier eco-friendly tradeshow sponsored in part by NBC and The New York Post. The Go Green Expo will showcase the latest and greatest in all things green from fuel efficient cars and natural personal care products to greener gadgets that help us live more sustainably.

Recycling is great for the environment. It's unfortunate, however, how close to the heart CAPCOM have followed through with this prospect. At this point in their lifespan, CAPCOM are well known--and criticised in some cases--for their liberty to often release at least one ulterior edition for their biggest releases.

Linear to Present SEO Fundamentals Course as Part of Online Dealer Training Series
Linear will present a free Webinar on Wednesday (Oct. 3) at 1 p.m. EDT, focusing on search engine optimization (SEO).
By Rodney Bosch · September 26, 2012
Included in SSI's October issue, which will be posted online in the next few days, is an article I reported about dealer programs. The vast array of organizational support available to the dealer and integrator communities really is impressive when you consider the great many resources offered by various service providers and vendors.
Be it for technical training, financial assistance, marketing support, business development, networking opportunities, etc., if you need help it's out there to be had (with the caveat you'll need to do your homework first to ensure a good match).
By and large as technological advances have taken hold in the industry, support offered by third-party providers has progressed as well (albeit to varying degrees of success). This includes keeping pace with digital marketing trends. To that point, although this isn't specifically related to an authorized dealer program, consider Linear's newly expanded Online Dealer Training Series.
The access control specialist is presenting a free Webinar on Wednesday (Oct. 3) at 1 p.m. EDT, focusing on search engine optimization (SEO). The series is being offered to not only Linear's dealer partners but all interested installing security contractors. If you have been studying or wondering (which you should be at the least) how it is that SEO can increase sales by obtaining qualified business leads from Internet search engines, this could be right up your alley.
Titled "SEO Fundamentals," the 45-minute session will instruct dealers and integrators on effective SEO strategies to "strengthen Web visibility and organically grow their business," according to a company announcement.
Linear presenters will cover topics, including how SEO works, how to identify the right keywords and use them effectively, the benefits of a blended search strategy, plus tips for achieving better local and regional Web site traffic. A question and answer period will follow. Interested? For more information or to register for the Webinar, visit www.linearcorp.com/dealertraining or call (800) 421-1587.

Gay Softball Team Disqualified for Not Being Gay Enough
In 2008, a San Francisco softball team came to Seattle to compete in the Gay Softball World Series. The team, named D2, made it all the way to the championship game. And that's when people started asking questions. Now the players are suing, because they were disqualified for (allegedly) having more than two heterosexual players.

New Digg CEO, take note: How social media companies respond to irate users
Days after launching a major revision to its social-news website, Digg has appointed Matt Williams, a former Amazon.com manager, as its new chief executive. And man, does he have some work ahead of him. The overhaul of Digg, which shifts the focus from a page edited by the masses to a personalized news feed, has angered some of its most loyal users. Many Diggers have been very vocal about staging an exodus to rival news site Reddit. Of course, these types of rumblings seem to happen just about any time a large site has its formula tinkered with. Twitter saw backlash recently when it released a feature called Retweet. A loud group that included the service's creator, Jack Dorsey, criticized Retweet for not letting users add a short note to those messages. The small music website TheSixtyOne heard angry chants when it unleashed a simpler version of the service. And such revolts make up practically a bimonthly tradition for Facebook. So how should social media website owners, who find the cries are loudest on their own pages, deal with the attacks? The Times talked to some of those administrators and looked to examples from the past for clues as to how Williams might want to handle the indignation he's inherited. Twitter has millions of passionate and observant users who will notice every time a new button is added or a new "promoted" thing shows up on the site.The San Francisco company provides guidelines for businesses using its social network, and when prompted for Twitter's own philosophy, a spokeswoman highlighted a line from that Best Practices page: "Listen regularly for comments about your company, brand and products -- and be prepared to address concerns, offer customer service or thank people for praise," she quoted. In other words, don't ignore the negativity. Facebook, with 500 million active members, knows push-back perhaps better than anyone. Sometimes the Palo Alto, Calif., developers lose (see: Beacon). Sometimes they win (News Feed).But judging by Facebook's reactions in the past, these issues are usually handled as such: The company lets things stew for a bit and eventually finds either a mountain or a molehill. Molehills disappear rather quickly. Mountains normally get addressed through company blog posts, often by Chief Mark Zuckerberg. Those messages have offered an excuse, some reasoning or an unusual alternative. (To ease privacy concerns, Facebook said users could vote on a sort of Bill of Rights. Few opted to participate, and so the program mostly fell by the wayside.) Beacon, a veritable Everest,resulted in a $9.5-million settlement. Reddit may have benefited the most from Digg users' revolt this week, but the small company has had to deal with tantrums of its own in the past. Though, comparedwith Digg's,"We've never had anything quite like that,"Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian said in an interview with The Times. But Ohanian seems to think Digg is scaling its mountain reasonably well. "It's important to remember that you're still running the site, and you're responsible for doing what's best for it," said Ohanian, who is no longer involved in Reddit's daily operations. "It's impossible to please everyone. And it's important to be wary of the silent majority, who will never let you know how they feel." Digg's response aligns with Ohanian's advice and that of Facebook. Founder Kevin Rose, who was filling in as interim CEO until Tuesday, wrote a blog postaddressing many complaints and offering fixes in the future. A Digg spokeswoman declined to comment for this story. While Rose maintains a great deal of influence at Digg, those decisions may ultimately fall on the shoulders of the new chief. "Introducing change is never easy, and bringing something as radically different as Digg version 4 was bound to generate a strong reaction," Rose wrote in a statementannouncing the hiring of Williams. "We are absolutely listening and really value everyone's feedback as we take Digg in new directions." So Williams will have plenty to mull over as he reshapes the fast-changing company. Rose offered some thoughts in an interview with AllThingsD about Williams' new role: "It's a pain in the ass and something I would never wish on my worst enemy." Have fun, Matt! -- Mark Miliantwitter.com/markmilian Photo: From left to right, Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian, StumbleUpon founder Garrett Camp, Digg founder Kevin Rose.

Who Can Really Save You Money on Car Insurance?
Are you confused on how to save money on car insurance? Don't worry, so are a lot of consumers. Car insurance companies are spending a lot of dollars on advertiser to find new customers. There's a good chance that you've seen TV commercials from leading insurance companies. The central messages in most of these commercials are that "We can save you money on car insurance." But can they really?
In short, no company can know for sure until you submit a quote request. A number of factors go into determining your rates, and so you won't know what you'll be quoted until you provide some basic information (vehicle info, coverage info, personal info).
So how do you really save on Auto Insurance? We recommend the following steps, all of which can be done through
- 1. Understand what kind of coverage you need
- 2. Shop around for quotes from the top insurance companies
- 3. Consult with at least one local agent that you like (in addition to getting quotes directly)
- 4. Compare your quotes for coverage
- 5. Choose the policy with the best coverage relative to its cost
How to Get the Best Price on Your Car Insurance
Just about every state in the US has a minimum coverage law applied to auto insurance. This means that in most cases you need to have some form of car insurance in order to comply with state law.
If you don't get that coverage you could face serious fines of up to $500 dollars, the suspension of your license, and eventually even jail time!
Not to mention the catastrophic costs you could incur if you were in a serious car accident without auto insurance.
But how can you get the best and most affordable coverage in your state? Each state has its own set of rules and regulations regarding auto coverage. To find out what your own state requires, you can check with your state's insurance office, or you can speak to a knowledgeable car insurance agent who can advise you in the amount of coverage you need.
But to get the lowest price, you need to get a variety of auto insurance quotes from several different companies. Shopping around is the best way to get affordable coverage, bar none.
Before you begin, it's a good idea to check the status of your own driving record. Do you have any outstanding tickets? If so, be aware that your costs could be higher. If you're not sure about your driving record, contact your local DMV.
Next, if you're in the market for a new car, consider a lower-cost vehicle. Expensive cars require expensive car insurance, and you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month by opting for a less expensive vehicle.
Consider mileage too. If you drive a lot, then your insurance costs will definitely go up. Compare auto insurance quotes from a variety of mileage charts. If you can save a lot of money by taking the bus to work every so often, or even walking, it could definitely be worth the effort.
Choose a car that has a high safety rating. The higher your safety rating, the cheaper your auto insurance will be. Do some research on which cars suit your needs and offer the kind of ratings that can save you money.
If you aren't purchasing a new car, but want to make some changes to your existing vehicle that will save your auto insurance costs, try installing safety devices. New devices like GPS, a central locking system, and even LoJack can lower your costs.
If you're looking to lower your premiums, try going with a higher deductible. You'll pay less on the front end. However, keep in mind that in the event of an accident or the need for auto repairs, you'll pay more before that deductible kicks in. When you speak to auto insurance agents get quotes for a variety of plans with different deductibles so you can work out the most affordable plan for your car.
Finally, while it's very important to shop around and get multiple auto insurance quotes, it also pays to consider purchasing your car insurance in a package deal. Sometimes, if you get your car insurance, home owners insurance and life insurance from the same company you can save a percentage that lowers your overall costs
What Kinds of Auto Insurance Discounts Are Available?
Be sure to ask your insurance company if there are discounts available if you are also a Homeowner with coverage underwritten by the same insurance company.
Start your auto insurance rate quote and see what kind of discounts are available for you.
