HALIFAX, N.S. -- The Halifax Gateway Council (HGC) is hosting three separate inbound missions to Halifax for commercial delegates from North America, Europe and Asia. The North American edition of the Halifax Logistics Park Summit takes place today and tomorrow, with the European and Asian versions taking place Nov. 27-28 and late March, respectively.
"Strategically located on the East Coast of North America, the deep-water Port of Halifax and the award-winning Halifax Stanfield International Airport are the anchors of a seamlessly integrated transportation system that is open for business," says Joyce Carter, Halifax Gateway Council chairperson. "We have geographic advantages, an educated and reliable labour force, and over $100 billion in mega projects underway, or scheduled to get underway, in Atlantic Canada. The delegates will see first-hand the benefits of the Halifax Gateway."
The summits will include presentations and meetings with the Port of Halifax, Halifax Stanfield International Airport, CN, Greater Halifax Partnership and all three levels of government. Infrastructure tours will also be provided including the container terminals and the Atlantic Gateway-Halifax Logistics Park. There will also be one-on-one meetings with local business and an opportunity to network with stakeholders including government partners.
"Nova Scotia is geographically positioned to be a significant part of the sea and air freight gateway to and from North America because of our infrastructure links and proven capabilities. Through jobsHere, we are using our advantages to compete on a global scale," said Economic and Rural Development and Tourism Minister Percy Paris. "This is a vital project in helping the province seize new opportunities and create good jobs for families across the province."
The project is funded by the Government of Canada's Gateways and Border Crossings Fund in support of the Atlantic Gateway and Trade Corridor, Nova Scotia Economic Rural Development and Tourism, the Port of Halifax, the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, and the Greater Halifax Partnership.

Three Chelsea players have spoken of their excitement ahead of facing Real Madrid in Miami on Wednesday.
We meet the Spanish side, and our former manager Carlo Ancelotti, at the Sun Life Stadium in the Guinness International Champions Cup final on Wednesday night, in our most prestigious pre-season game so far.
Among the various sub-plots are of course Jose Mourinho facing his former team, where he spent three years before returning to Stamford Bridge in June, while Juan Mata also looks ahead to a reunion with the club where he began his career.
Mata started out as a striker with Real, before being allowed to leave for Valencia in 2007 and subsequently arriving in west London four years later.
'It will be very special for me to play against Real Madrid, a very important team to me in my career,' said the 25-year-old.
'I hope the fans will enjoy the game in Miami, which I think will be very exciting, and that we can lift the trophy in the final to make them happy.'
Ashley Cole is looking forward to renewing both rivalries and friendships down in Florida, as he prepares for a first meeting with Real in his illustrious career, after missing Arsenal's Champions League victory at the Bernabeu in 2006 due to injury.
'It will be great to catch up with Carlo Ancelotti, who is a great guy. We loved working with him at Chelsea and hopefully he can have a good first season in Spain,' said the England defender.
'Real Madrid will be a huge test for us, they're obviously one of the best teams in the world and I've had some good games with Cristiano Ronaldo down the years, so I hope this will be another exciting match.'
Eden Hazard is another who is yet to face Los Merengues, and looks forward to testing himself against world-class opposition.
'It's a big game for me as I'm a young player, and it's very exciting,' said the 22-year-old. 'Real Madrid is a massive club and they have a number of quality players with the likes of Ronaldo and Kaka.
'This will be the first time I've played against them and it will be a big game, not just for the players but also the fans, and hopefully we can win the match.'

2009 Orlando Magic Summer League Roster - Breaking it Down!
In continuing our Summer League coverage, I decided to break down the Indiana Pacer's Summer League roster. It includes names you know. It also includes names you've never heard of, which is why I decided to take on this task.
Alright, I was all drafted out, so sorry for the lack of posting going on this weekend - I sincerely apologize to all thirteen of you that were disappointed. As a show of goodwill, I worked feverishly throughout the weekend to scour my sources, google the news, and do anything and everything I could to start piecing together an accurate view of what your team will look like this Summer.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Aug. 31, 2013 – Freshman right side hitter Janey Goodman (Powhatan, Va./Powhatan) recorded a team-high 14 kills on .300 hitting, but Virginia received 20 kills from outside hitter Tori Janowski as the Cavaliers defeated the James Madison volleyball team 3-1 in game two of the Jefferson Cup in Charlottesville, Va., on Saturday.
JMU lost by set scores of 25-23, 23-25, 25-15, 26-24 to fall to 0-2 on the season. Virginia improved to 2-0 after defeating Marshall 3-0 on Friday night.
Goodman's 14 kills was her first double-digit kill performance of her career. She added three blocks for the Dukes. Sophomore outside hitter Meghan Niski (St. Charles, Ill./St. Charles East) contributed a double-double with 13 kills and 10 digs. She hit .314 for the match with only two errors and had two blocks and two assists. Fellow sophomore outside hitter MacKenzie Kleespies (Lincoln University, Pa./Avon Grove) recorded her second double-double of the season with 11 kills and a team-best 18 digs.
Redshirt junior setter Kristi Richardson (Glen Allen, Va./Hermitage) paced Madison to a .234 hitting percentage in the match, handing out 39 assists. She added 11 digs, five kills and three blocks. Freshman middle blocker Hanna Radhi (Gainesville, Va./Battlefield) led all players with six blocks.
Janowski hit .302 for the match, contributing nine digs and two blocks to go with her 20 kills. Haley Kole had 15 kills while Jasmine Burton hit .250 with 12 kills for the Cavaliers. Libero Emily Rottman led all players with 26 digs and setter Lauren Fuller handed out a match-high 46 assists.
UVA had 66 kills and posted a .244 attack percentage to best JMU's numbers of 56 kills and a .234 attack percentage. The Dukes picked up 10 blocks to the Cavaliers five and the teams tied with 70 digs apiece. UVA won the serving battle with seven aces to Madison's one.
Set one went back and forth featuring a series of runs by each team. Trailing 19-14, JMU called timeout. Out of the break, the Dukes went on a 9-1 run to take a 23-20 advantage, but the Cavaliers responded with a 5-0 run to close the set, winning it 25-23. Goodman paced the Madison attack with six kills against just one error, while Madison hit .324 as a team.
JMU hit .355 in set two, committing just one error against 12 kills to win the set 25-23. UVA came out firing in the set, building a 7-1 lead before Madison put together a 5-0 run to tie it at 9-9. The Dukes built a four point lead at 17-13, but were eventually forced to call timeout when the Cavaliers cut the advantage to one. JMU won five of the seven points out of the timeout to take a 23-19 and this time closed the set out for a 25-23 win.
The Cavaliers collected 16 kills against just one error in set three to hit .441 for the set. UVA led most of the way in the set to earn the 25-15 victory. JMU led 7-5 in the set, but gave up a 12-4 run to fall behind 19-11. UVA never let JMU get closer than seven points the rest of the way to win the set.
Set four was another back-and-forth battle with UVA building an early lead. The teams traded points until the Dukes reached the first set point at 24-23. The Cavaliers called a timeout and regrouped to win the final three points of the match to earn the 26-24 win.
Madison closes out the Jefferson Cup at 4:30 p.m. as they face Marshall.

Anyone ? or am I just a bad artist
Hi to all, I am looking for feedback on this drain layout;
A bit more info; material cost is not an issue, this is a new house installation, the job is in BC Canada. I have attached drawings of the layout and the house floor plan, all one story. I have a permit but the town building inspector also does the plumbing inspection so I want the installation to be as plain as day as I question her abilities. Just for clarity, I have omitted the installation of cleanouts and fitting choices which will be "Y" fittings for drains and "T" fittings where the trap arm and venting is connected. This will include the venting Manifold that will be in the 6 inch wall cavity. There is limited access to the attic so this is why I have joined all the vents just below the top plate of the water wall. What I am looking for is a vent / drain system that is easy to follow and that will also pass the inspection. Everyone's comments will be appreciated. I know I could do some wet venting instead but I don't prefer that layout. Thanks
oh man.....i mjust realised the date is a year old...well, i guess your liven in it by now. thats what i get for not looking
well....keep the drawing i made. as a house gift...LOL

Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer electronic cash system that is completely decentralized, without the need for a central server or trusted parties. Users hold the crypto keys to their own money and transact directly with each other, with the help of a P2P network to check for double-spending.
Bitcoinproof creates a forgery-proof timestamp for your data, secured by the Bitcoin network. It allows you to prove that a certain event happened before a certain point in time. Maybe you want to prove that the damage in your flat already existed when you moved in, or that you were in possession of a great artwork before it was published, proving you are the author.
Bork is a very small, cross-platform file encryption utility using a password-based RC4 algorithm. It is designed to be included in source code form along with the files it encrypts for long-term storage (eg on CD-R). Its minimal external dependencies are designed to make it fairly futureproof.
Caume Data Security Engine is a REST API platform for storing and processing files in uncontrolled environments. It provides a Free Software solution which allows the creation of reasonably secure and isolated workspaces to process and store sensitive data within uncontrolled environments. With concepts such as "the cloud" and "bring your own device", as well as an increasing demand for mobile devices, it has become clear that the way in which companies operate is changing dramatically, and, with it, the way in which we secure information and the infrastructure which supports business processes. CaumeDSE has been designed as a service platform which provides security to data by using free, well-known, and robust cryptographic software, as well as open and simple data structures and interfaces to make portability and extensibility easy.
cpm (Console Password Manager) is a small console tool to manage passwords and other sensitive data and store them in a public-key encrypted file. It also allows you to configure the whole hierarchy yourself, so it's easily adoptable for many requirements. The encryption is handled through GnuPG, and the data inside is stored as XML.
CryptoTE is a text editor with integrated strong cryptography. It is based on the popular Scintilla widget and automatically stores text data in secure encrypted container files. Compared to other "password keeper" programs, CryptoTE does not force any structure upon your data: it works with plain ASCII text and does not require you to fill in grids, key-value attributes, or descriptions. Encryption is transparently performed using the highly-secure Serpent cipher. The editing interface is thoroughly optimized for speed and ease of use. Multiple subfiles, Quick-Find, and a two-click random password generator make daily use very convenient.
DIIT provides a simple tool that can hide a message inside a 24-bit colour image so that knowing how it was embedded, or performing statistical analysis, does not make it any easier to find the concealed information. It also provides a framework for implementing other steganography algorithms for use in the tool.
EverCrack is a cryptanalysis engine. The overall design goal is to systematically break down complex ciphers into their simplex components for cryptanalysis (by the kernel). The kernel consists of an algebraic design (comparison and reduction) for breaking uniliteral, monoalphabetic ciphers instantaneously. Currently, it can break a 4000-word cipher in milliseconds. EverCrack currently has multi-language support for the user interface and cracking encryption in other language dictionaries (English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Dutch, and Portuguese).
Figaro's Password Manager 2 (FPM2) is a GTK2 port of Figaro's Password Manager, originally developed by John Conneely. It allows you to securely store your passwords, which are encrypted with the AES-256 algorithm. It allows you to copy passwords or usernames to the clipboard or primary selection. If a password is for a Web site, FPM can keep track of the URLs of your login screens and can automatically launch your browser. You can also teach FPM to launch other applications. FPM can sort your passwords into categories. Finally, it has a password generator that can help you choose good passwords.

Comments about Franco Sarto Women's Citrix Sandal:
In all fairness, this is my first day wearing these shoes.
Negatives: So far, they are pretty uncomfortable. They feel too small by about half a size and a little too narrow (I wear a size 7M and that's what I ordered). After wearing just a couple of hours, the straps on the inside of the shoe have already started to crack, but that could be just normal 'breaking in'.
Positives: The shoes are super cute. I'm wearing them today at work, but they'd look great with jeans, slacks, dresses, and skirts. They're pretty well cushioned for being a sandal, and the heel isn't too high (but high enough to look sexy).
In the end, I'd probably purchase them again in a half size larger or a wider shoe.

She became chair of the Women's Committee again in 1997 and has continued to serve in an advisory capacity. She has also been a national tester and has spoken at several USPTA World Conferences. One of her proudest moments in the USPTA was serving on a panel (1994) with Billie Jean King and Bev Raws on "Issues in Women's Tennis." In 1992, DeHoog's book History of the Women's Committee was published by the national USPTA office. In 2005 the National Organization of Women honored DeHoog with the Feminist in Athletics Award, and in 2008 the Big East Athletic Conference gave her the Award for Excellence in Advancing Girls' and Women's Sports.

Steve Hurlock '63 retired from Boeing almost 10 years ago. Since then, he has been volunteering and working part time at UCLA as a member of a research group in atmospheric spectroscopy. He wrote that he works with people half his age and perhaps twice as smart (if maybe not as wise). He also is enjoying many stimulating events on the UCLA campus. In addition, Hurlock volunteers with the local county Transportation Commission and serves on a board that hears petitions related to violations for the county Air Pollution Control District. Hurlock has been recording textbooks for the blind and dyslexic for nearly 10 years. When he's not involved in these activities, he enjoys his four grand kids and traveling. Last year, for example, he took about seven or eight trips.
Al Strong '63 and his wife are expecting their 10th grandchild in July of 2012! Al retired in 2006 and formed his own research company, Strong Research, Inc., which continues work with the the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, doing satellite monitoring of coral reefs around the globe. "But now I work on a more relaxed schedule with considerable telecommuting," he wrote.
Barbara (Baker) Walsh '63 wrote, "For the past 20 years I have worked for an educational foundation, and I feel that I've made a big difference. This next year will be the foundation's 50th anniversary, so we are planning on programs that will address the changes that have happened in the past 50 years. When I call potential speakers they always say they are honored to be asked--we have an unusual reputation. We often get speakers before they get famous! I plan to keep working as long as I can because my job depends on curiosity, so I never get bored. Curiosity does not make you rich, though; it just keeps your mind busy. And making a difference matters. I wish that for the entire Class of 1963."
Robert Sundeen '67 and John Sowinski were married on September 25, 2011, in Central Park, New York City.

FriendsJohn Moore (Ph.D., J.D. ) died on April 7, 2012. He was associate professor of philosophy at Kalamazoo College from 1964 to 1969. He left K to attend Harvard Law School and earned his J.D. in 1971. He then accepted an appointment in the philosophy department at Northwestern University, where he developed the concept of getting philosophers into specialized law school courses to serve as the basis for doctoral level philosophical thought in those various areas of the law. After Northwestern, he practiced law in Dallas, Texas. He and his wife Elizabeth, who was a major partner in a large national law firm, moved to Gladewater, Texas, (John's hometown) in 1993. Professor Emeritus of Philosophy David Scarrow, a colleague and friend of Moore, wrote, "Although John taught at Kalamazoo College for just a few years he left a wake of scores of students who at their reunions speak of him with reverend admiration. This Texan who came into our northern climes with his warm heart, his down-home stories, his critical thinking, and his spirited optimism became unforgettable." One of those students to whom Scarrow refers is Ed Thompson '68, who wrote about Moore: "He refused all course assignments except introductory classes, but he never taught an intro class the same way twice. The introductory philosophy course I happened to take started with week-old articles on the philosophy of computers. It was exciting and cutting-edge stuff (K had recently purchased its first computer just the year before), and I was shocked to find that boring things like angels dancing on pinheads related to the philosophy of computers! In his class you included a blank cassette when you turned in papers, which he used to provide audio comments on your work. These comments often took the shape of a 30-minute stream of consciousness discussion. Dr. Moore had a frumpy pear-shaped build (or so it seemed back then) that belied the Junior Davis Cup tennis player that he was. As he became completely engrossed in lecturing, he'd unconsciously pull down on his cheeks with his fingers, like gouging clay from a hill side. Everyone remembers that. He was so important to my education, which I suspect is true for many of us."

Interview by Gene Zasadinski and Per BerglundThe media, old and new, are brimming with accounts of the current financial crisis. Among the punditry, only a few voices have risen above the clamor to provide clarity and insight. Chief among these is Yale economist Robert Shiller. In the following interview, Professor Shiller discusses the causes of and solutions to the economic problems we currently face. Along the way, he provides an analysis of the significance of economics in our everyday lives.
PwC: In your book The Subprime Solution, you say that the housing bubble led to the subprime and larger economic crises. You also say that people don't understand the psychology of bubbles. Can you explain what you mean by that?
RS: Well, one very basic misperception is that most people imagine that the stock market or other speculative markets are a kind of exogenous force that we react to rather than cause. And so they don't perceive a relation between the excitement that's around them and the causes of the bubble. People think that their own thoughts are unique, but the reality is that millions of other people think exactly the same thoughts and act on them. And that's what drives the markets.
PwC: So people often do not have a rational basis for their decisions. Is this the idea you develop in your most recent book, Animal Spirits?
RS: George Akerlof and I chose the words animal spirits as the title for our book because we think it's a major driver of the economy.
PwC: Can you explain the term a bit more?
RS: Economist John Maynard Keynes used it in a famous passage in his book The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money. I'm not quoting him exactly, but what he meant was that there are far fewer hard facts than we might think that support important decisions we make. We just don't have that information, and so, instead of doing nothing, we base decisions on some kind of gut feeling.
PwC: And gut feelings, particularly about the economy, can be influenced—positively or negatively.
RS: Well, this is really an interesting controversy right now. Some, even the president, are being criticized for fear mongering, for bringing up the Great Depression. The other side of it is to talk upbeat all the time. In the early years of the Depression, Herbert Hoover kept saying that he thought it would be over in a few months. And then a few months passed, and it wasn't over, so he extended his deadline, and eventually he became the laughingstock of the nation for trying to be upbeat when obviously things were going wrong.

Honduras stun Mexico at Azteca
Honduras overcame an early deficit to beat Mexico 2-1 in a World Cup qualifier at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City on Friday night.
• Canales: A sign of things to come?
• Marshall: Player grades for Mexico
• Palomo: Concern for Chepo's future
There was no sign of a shock when Giovani Dos Santos provided Oribe Peralta with the chance to put Mexico one up after five minutes.
But the hosts became sloppy, and Jerry Bengston capitalized on some slack defending to equalize after 64 minutes.
Two minutes later, Carlos Costly swooped on Diego Reyes' mistake to give Honduras a lead they would not relinquish.
Mexico coach Manuel "Chepo" de la Torre will come under renewed pressure after El Tri lost their first qualifier at Azteca in their past 27 matches.
Mexico has just one win from their seven matches in the final round of CONCACAF qualifying. El Tri are in in fourth place and next face the United States in Columbus, Ohio, on Tuesday.

More information about Sudan is available on the Sudan Page and from other Department of State publications and other sources listed at the end of this fact sheet.
The United States established diplomatic relations with Sudan in 1956, following its independence from joint administration by Egypt and the United Kingdom. Sudan broke diplomatic relations with the United States in 1967 after the start of the Arab-Israeli War. Relations were reestablished in 1972. In the 1990s, The Sudanese Government's links with international terrorist organizations led the United States to designate Sudan in 1993 as a state sponsor of terrorism and to suspend U.S. Embassy operations in 1996. The U.S. Embassy was reopened in 2002. Sudan has provided concrete cooperation against international terrorism since the September 11, 2001 terrorist strikes against the United States.
The United States helped create the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement that laid the groundwork for South Sudan's 2011 independence referendum and secession. Several disputes between Sudan and South Sudan remain unresolved, including the management of oil resources and the status of the Abyei region. The United States supports the efforts of the African Union High-Level Implementation Panel to help the two countries resolve these disputes.
U.S. policy on Sudan aims to achieve an end to conflict and gross human rights abuses and to ensure that Sudan does not harbor international terrorists.
U.S. Assistance to Sudan
Despite policy differences, the United States has been a major donor of humanitarian aid to Sudan throughout the last quarter century. Sudan faces complex development challenges and an uncertain future. The United States seeks to enhance the viability and stability of Sudan, which are essential to the stability of South Sudan and the region as a whole. Conflict mitigation is a priority for U.S. foreign policy, particularly in Darfur, Abyei, Blue Nile state, and Southern Kordofan state. The United States supports democratic development in Sudan and a transition from emergency assistance to development assistance where conditions allow. U.S. assistance programs do not have access to many areas of Sudan due to security concerns or because the Government of Sudan has imposed travel restrictions.
Bilateral Economic Relations
In 1997, the United States imposed comprehensive economic, trade, and financial sanctions against Sudan due to its support for international terrorism, ongoing efforts to destabilize neighboring governments, and the persistence of human rights violations. In 2007, the United States imposed new economic sanctions on Sudan in response to the government's continued complicity in violence occurring in Darfur. The sanctions blocked assets of Sudanese citizens implicated in Darfur violence, and also sanctioned additional companies owned or controlled by the Government of Sudan. Sanctions underscore the U.S. commitment to ending the suffering of the millions of Sudanese affected by the crisis in Darfur. U.S. sanctions on Sudan do not impede humanitarian assistance.
The United States and Sudan have a small amount of bilateral trade. Sudan is a member of the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa, which has a Trade and Investment Framework Agreement with the United States.
Sudan's Membership in International Organizations
Sudan and the United States belong to a number of the same international organizations, including the United Nations, International Monetary Fund, and World Bank. Sudan also is an observer to the World Trade Organization.
Bilateral Representation
There currently is no U.S. Ambassador to Sudan; the U.S. Charge d'Affaires is Joseph D. Stafford. Other principal embassy officials are listed in the Department's Key Officers List.
Sudan maintains an embassy in the United States at 2210 Massachusetts Ave. NW, Washington, DC 20008 (tel: (202) 338-8565.

Governor Nixon Stands Up for Birth Control - Rejects SB749
Women - Not Employers - Best Suited to Make Birth Control Decisions
Jefferson City, MO – Today, Governor Nixon vetoed a birth control refusal bill that would have put Missouri insurance companies on a legal collision course forcing them to choose between violating state or federal law.
The Missouri Legislature passed the bill in an attempt to undermine the incredibly popular proposal requiring most health insurance plans to cover birth control as preventive care with no additional co-pays. SB 749 (Lamping-R24) attempts to block the federal law supported by the majority of Americans.
"As a trusted health care provider to one in five women in America, Planned Parenthood sees every day how important affordable birth control is for women," said Peter Brownlie, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and mid-Missouri. "Governor Nixon recognizes that birth control is a pocketbook issue for Missouri women and should be fully covered by insurance no matter where they work," said Brownlie.
"We applaud Governor Nixon's veto. Given that the vast majority of Missourians support access to birth control, we know they are applauding the governor too," said Mary Kogut, vice president of patient services at Planned Parenthood of the St. Louis Region and Southwest Missouri. "Legislators, employers and insurers should not be making decisions for the women and families of Missouri," said Kogut.
Fact: Birth control is basic health care. Nearly 700,000 women in Missouri use some form of birth control. http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/win/2006/Missouri.pdf
Fact: Virtually all (99%) sexually experienced women in the US have used birth control, including 98% of Catholic women. http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/Religion-and-Contraceptive-Use.pdf
Fact: A majority of Americans agree women should have access to birth control, no matter where they work.
• 77% agree birth control should not be part of the national political debate (Bloomberg News, 3/14/12)
• 57% think religiously affiliated hospitals should cover contraception at no cost (Public Religion Research Institute, 3/15/12)
• 61% say insurance companies should cover the full cost of birth control (Washington Post-ABC News, 3/10/12)
Planned Parenthood affiliates in Missouri serve more than 80,000 women, men and teens annually with life-saving cancer screenings, well-woman exams, education programs, STD prevention and treatment, and family planning services.

Berkley® Trilene XT® Extra Tough™ Line - Filler Spools
- Super strength and durability
- Abrasion resistant
- Excels in heavy cover
- Low memory
Rated 4 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by mikeysan If it ain't broke,,,, For me Trilene XT 14 lb test has always been synonymous with a medium action baitcaster, reeds, pads, and bass. Although maybe not on par with XL's castability, it excels in abrasion resistance. In fact, it's a rare day on the water that I have to retie except for a lure change. In the last couple of years, I've discovered the joy of bass fishing with light to medium light gear and,,, yeah you guessed it, 8-10 lb test Trelene XT. August 9, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by AJHauser Decent Line in a Pinch This is a decent line in a pinch, here's why: THE GOOD: The line is strong and abrasion resistant. I have had no real issues when tying on fluorocarbon leaders with back-to-back uni-knots, or knot strength in general. THE BAD: The line has a thick diameter, probably due to whatever makes it abrasion resistant. This makes it rigid - and whether you spool this loose or tight, the right way or the wrong way, at some point you are going to have line jump the spool. When I use anything over 12 lb. test, this problem increases exponentially. The rigidity also impedes lure action. THE VERDICT: If you are doing any sort or long distance casting, or looking for mono to put into a baitcast reel - go with Trilene XL, NOT XT! You could do much worse, but for me I now spool up with the appropriate weight line in XL no matter what. Heavy cover or not - I haven't looked back once. July 25, 2013

Millie Barnes has just finished her residency and has returned to Cape Cod, where she grew up, with the hope to join a family doctor's practice. Said doctor wants to see what she can do, so he promises her they can discuss things in the fall if she proves her abilities at the local emergency clinic and at the local nursing home, checking in on his patients. (Now admittedly I don't know much about the medical profession, but in my mind completing your residency should be proof enough that you have skills). Millie agrees because it gives her time to pursue her other life-long dream of becoming Mrs. Joe Carpenter.
Joe Carpenter is a carpenter. He is drop dead gorgeous and is a playboy around town and other places too. He was a sports hero as well as the prom king. He never knew Millie was alive. Millie always thought that was due to her beautiful sister, who was her complete opposite. Trish was a few years older, a cheerleader and gorgeous to boot. Millie was awkward, had acne and was always a bit on the chubby side. Trish got pregnant and married right out of high school to the local town jock, who was on a scholarship at Notre Dame. Sam Nickerson was a great guy. He always treated Millie like she was somebody and they were friends as well as relations by marriage.
Just after Sam and Trish married, Sam hurt his shoulder and had to give up his scholarship and dreams of playing in the NFL. They moved back to Cape Cod and raised a fine young son, Danny, who is ready to enter his senior year in high school. Now divorced from Sam, Trish lives in New Jersey with the rich man she cheated with.
The story follows Millie as she makes herself over with the help of her two gay friends and another, Katie, who is divorced with two young boys. Millie plans to entrap Joe into seeing her and falling for her. Sam and Danny are on the periphery, friends in the port, who also happen to adore her just for who she is. At one point, Millie's plan works and she starts dating Joe. But Joe isn't as great in real life as he is in her fantasies. Now she finds herself falling for Sam. What is she to do?
The good things about the story are Sam and Danny. Sam is warm, loving and seems like a nice guy. Danny is a teenager with a lot of brains and seems to love his family. He is a good kid.
Millie is the major problem in Fools Rush In. She has wasted almost 15 years of her life mooning over some guy who was nice to her when she threw up in middle school while all the other kids were making fun of her. She has attributed acts of kindness to him, even though she doesn't know the real story. Even when he acts like a slob and seems to only want her for the mediocre sex they have, she doesn't give up the ghost. She keeps making excuses for him until I wanted to throw the book at her. Then she expects the reader to feel sorry for her when she suddenly discovers she really loves Sam instead.
Fools Rush In is Kristan Higgins' first novel. Hopefully her second book will have more likable and sympathetic characters.

Best spa ever! – Blooming Moon is by far my favorite spa in Portland, and I've checked out quite a few. I usually visit a variety of places for different services, but after a year and a half it's hard to think about going anywhere other than Blooming Moon. Their wide variety of services are consistently amazing. Ginny is by far the best eyebrow waxer in Portland...and I'm pretty particular about how I like them done. She's seriously made an art of it. Her facials are a bit like dying and going to heaven. If I could I'd treat everyone I love to one of these! I've been to lots of spas where they'll put a mask on you and leave the room, but not at Blooming Moon. From start to finish she's working on you're body... whether it's a hand massage or the killer foot massage. Total pampering. Not to mention my skin felt great and sparkled for days after. Everyone that works there is cool, friendly and real. And they're incredibly knowledgeable about the products they carry. They just moved to N Killingsworth and the new location is stunning. Spacious, two floors, huge, private rooms and an outdoor cedar hot tub on the way! Not to mention they're right next door to this awesome wine bar Hop and Vine....Perfect day. Funny to think I walked into Blooming Moon a year ago, randomly looking for a brow wax and found my favorite spa in Portland.
Thank you so much for your review! We try our very best to make certain that upon entering Blooming Moon, every guest is as happy as you. We all really love what we do! Its that simple. When you are passionate about what you do, that feeling is delightfully contagious. I strive to make the spa a sanctuary where you can find peace and relaxation-even if its a brow wax. You know, its kinda easy when we have such wonderful people walking into our spa, such as yourself Rachel. Stay Golden. ;) he-he.
Stressed out skin meets ladies with solutions!
After years of great skin, I found myself stressed out with bad skin. I tried the New Seasons array of fantastic products that had normally worked for me to be falling short.
Solution (thankfully): Blooming Moon Wellness Spa! The ladies are absolute experts. My skin is back to it's normally healthy Oregon girl glow.
You can't mess around with your skin, it just says so much about you. This is my standby spa, thank you Blooming Moon!
Will not be disappointed – I booked a message for my girlfriend here a few weeks ago after going back and forth between here and a few other spas. I decided to stick with Blooming Moon after reading the other reviews and I couldn't be happier. It was her first time going to a spa and was a little anxious about the whole thing but once we got there they immediately made her feel comfortable and at ease. It ended up being "the best present I'd ever got her." Needless to say we were both happy I chose Blooming Moon.
Caroline's awesome massage – I was feeling tight and sore from being involved in physical activities lately and needed some bodywork to loosen up.
I went in to Blooming Moon for a Deep Tissue massage and came out feeling great. Caroline gave me amazing deep work with a personal and relaxing touch. The atmosphere was wonderful and peaceful and all the spa staff were great. The service was top notch. They have many services guaranteed to customize to anyone's needs.
Totally pampered like a princess! – I came to the Blooming Moon on my day off last week for a facial and foot soak and scrub. The facial was wonderful - the esthetician seemed to apply endless masks and really tended to my skin, asking questions along the way, and recommended some really good products for me as well, based on my sensitive skin.
I didn't know what to expect for the milk foot soak, since I've never had one before, but it sounded like a good idea. I sat on a fluffy couch in a candlelit room with lots of pillows as they brought in a huge turquoise basin of hot, lime scented water. Since I'm vegan, I requested coconut milk instead of regular milk in the water, which they were MORE than happy to do. The papaya foot scrub was amazing - it smelled like i was on an island!
I left the spa with the Epicuren fine herbal scrub (i never exfoliate enough!), and some aloe for moisturizer (it was only $9!).
I love how close the spa is located to shopping and amazing food! Cafe Nell is around the corner and has awesome cocktails. Oh yah.
Best Massage Ever!!! – I had a wonderful massage the other day from Hilary. I felt so relaxed and loosened up. She gives a great deep tissue and hot stone massage.
I would highly recomend her to sooth your aches and pains!!!! She is friendly and easy to talk to and will make you feel a million times better.
Service, charm, professional, & caring – Took my wife here the other day for a "spa day". She loved it. Said the staff were wonderful and the massage and facial were the best she'd had. When I walked in to check the place out, a few days before, prior to taking my wife there, the receptionist was welcoming, very willing to let me preview the facilities, and made the process very easy. My wife will definitely return. This is the kind of local business you WANT to support and see continue to be successful. Thanks.
10 Years younger!! – Ginny at Blooming Moon Wellness Spa is the place to go if you want to look 10 years younger!!
Ginny's facials are so relaxing and after I am done my skin feels so soft and I am glowing.
I really look 10 years younger after every facial.
You can't beat the price either. She is so nice and caring that i feell like I am on vacation.
If you want a great facial and want to have a glowing face for days Ginny at Blooming moon spa is the place to go!!!
Blooming Moon: Great Services and Great Deals – Well if you ever need an appointment for a facial or a wax on Mondays or Tuesdays Casey is definitely your girl at Blooming Moon!
This place has the gretest deals on facials- only $60 on Mondays. AND They are currently running a special which includes a foot soak and hour and half massage with full a body sugar scrub treatment- which is to die for AND it includes a 30 minute mini facial for a $150 and you can upgrade to an hour facial for just $30.
For someone who is always looking for quality without spending a lot of money- this is the treatment for you. Casey is an amazing esthetician who was very flexible with her schedule and eager to share her knowledge and skills.
Waxing and facial pro – I have been going to Ginny for years and she knows her stuff. It is hard to find such a great spa professional who is great at what she does and also has a sparkling personality. I wouldn't trade Ginny for all the stars in the sky!

What is Gluten, Anyway?
The skinny on going gluten-free
Foods with a "gluten-free" claim are a big—and growing—business these days. And everywhere you turn, it seems another celebrity is touting the benefits of his or her new gluten-free diet. All of a sudden, gluten appears to be public enemy No. 1. But if you've watched this whirlwind of gluten-free activity unfold without fully understanding what, in fact, gluten actually is, fear not. You're probably not alone.
Gluten is shorthand for a family of storage proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. The gluten proteins are found in the mature seed of these cereal grasses, which is what we refer to as the grain. Close relatives of wheat, such as spelt, triticale, kamut, farro, and einkorn, also contain gluten and must be avoided on a gluten-free diet. While you may hear the term "gluten" used to refer to rice (e.g., glutinous rice), rice protein is not actually a gluten and need not be avoided on a gluten-free diet. Conversely, while oats don't technically contain gluten, they're almost always cross-contaminated with wheat gluten due to processing methods in this country. As a result, unless an oat-containing product is specifically labeled "gluten-free," one should assume it contains gluten.
Since gluten is a storage protein found in cereal grass seeds, it's not found in the young, green grasses that sprout from these seeds. For this reason, wheatgrass and barley grass are technically gluten-free. However, to ensure that wheatgrass or barley grass juices are safe to consume on a gluten-free diet, you need to make sure that no seeds accidentally make their way into the juicer.
While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not yet regulate the use of the claim "gluten-free" on consumer products, proposed legislation would mandate that products labeled "gluten-free" must be tested to ensure that they contain no more than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten, a threshold under which current testing methods are unable to detect the presence of gluten (and a level under which no adverse reactions appear to be triggered in those with Celiac disease). Currently, numerous grain-free products that are inherently gluten-free—from hummus to dried fruit—are carrying a gluten-free claim, presumably as a marketing tactic to make them appear healthier than competitive items. According to the FDA's proposed guidelines, this practice would be outlawed.
While there are segments of people who must avoid eating gluten due to adverse reactions, gluten is not an inherent "toxin" as many would have us believe. People with an immune-mediated wheat allergy and those with Celiac disease must follow a strict gluten-free diet, as gluten triggers harmful reactions. Others who have tested negative for wheat allergy or Celiac disease but still find that eating wheat causes unpleasant side effects may have a non-immune gluten intolerance or a wheat/gluten sensitivity. Those who experience gas and bloating in particular after eating wheat may actually be reacting to a form of carbohydrate in the wheat called fructans, rather than the gluten protein itself. For these latter groups, avoiding wheat and gluten may alleviate uncomfortable side effects; however, eating wheat/gluten does not cause damage to their cells nor trigger dangerous allergic reactions. For everyone else, gluten is just one of many food proteins encountered in the course of a mixed diet, neither detrimental nor essential to good health.
In other words, if you tolerate gluten and enjoy it, there's no compelling reason to avoid it. If you don't tolerate it or just prefer not to eat it, there's no compelling reason for you to keep it in your diet (other than, perhaps, convenience). Many people find that cutting out gluten helps them avoid the temptation of the numerous empty-calorie, high-glycemic, processed snack foods that they want to eliminate. Others, however, find that cutting out gluten only to replace it with gluten-free versions of these same empty-calorie, high-glycemic, processed snack foods is of no benefit for weight loss, energy levels, or improved health. (Foods with a high-glycemic index release sugar quickly into the bloodstream, causing a quick spike in energy that's followed by a dramatic dip in blood sugar levels. This dip leads to hunger relatively soon after eating.) A "gluten-free" claim is by no means an indication that a food is more natural, healthful, or lower in calories.
If you're following a gluten-free diet, either by necessity or choice, your best bet is to choose minimally-processed foods that are naturally gluten-free. Gluten-free oats, brown or wild rice, millet, buckwheat (kasha), and quinoa are nutritious, high-fiber whole grains that can replace wheat-based staples like pasta, wheat bran, couscous, bread, and cereal on a gluten-free diet. Beans, chickpeas, lentils, and the flours made from them are important, nutritious staples in a gluten-free pantry, as are nuts and nut flours. And, as is the case in any healthy diet, loads of fruits and vegetables make sure your gluten-free diet delivers essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber. If you're willing to think outside the (bread) box, a gluten-free lifestyle can add a surprising amount of diversity to your diet, and may not feel like a restriction at all!
