Samoans Suggest Exporting Canned Dog As Solution for Stray Dogs:
The Pacific island state of Samoa is considering solving its stray dog problem by exporting canned dog meat to Asia. Samoa currently has about 200,000 people and reportedly has more stray dogs than tourists. The country's associate minister, Tole'afoa Apulu Fa'afisi, has proposed in parliament that stray dogs be rounded up, canned, and exported to to Asia, and his suggestion has received strong support from fellow MPs. "Rather than spending money on dogs, how about we use their meat to get money?" he said. "Put them in cans and export them. Looking after other farm animals is also expensive maybe we can grind their meat to feed farm animals?" Samoan finance minister, Faumuina Tiatia Liuga, embraced the idea, noting that "There is no difference between the meat of a pig and that of a dog. When it gets cold in Asia, the moment you eat dog meat, you feel warm afterwards."

Will Your Next Car Get 100 MPG?
The Ford Fusion Energi has an EPA-rated fuel economy of 100 MPGe combined, 108 MPGe city, and 92 MPGe on the highway and it has a 5-star safety rating from the NHTSA. The 2013 Ford Fusion Energi Titanium starts at $40,200, a price tag that can be offset by a Federal tax credit of $3,751. Still too rich for me, but prices are likely to keep coming down. In 10 years, gasoline cars will not make sense for most people.
