Higher PP Prices May Usher in Better Times for Polystyrene
10:14 AM MDT | August 4, 2008 | Rebecca Coons
Sharply higher polypropylene (PP) raw material costs have driven up PP prices faster than prices for other resins, including polystyrene (PS), potentially opening the door for substitution of PP with PS in certain applications, market sources say. "Prices for all materials are at historically high levels, but polypropylene is definitely seeing a disproportional escalation in price compared to other resins and runs the risk of losing applications," one producer says. U.S. contract prices for polymer-grade propylene increased 30% since the start of the...

Anna Troyansky
— M.A. in French, The University of Texas at Austin
2014-15 Walther Scholar
- E-mail: email@example.com
- Phone: 512-495-4424
- Office: PCL 5.543
- Campus Mail Code: B7600
The program in French Linguistics brought me back to Texas, the state where I grew up, after eight years away. I studied French at Bowdoin College, a small liberal-arts college in Maine, where I wrote an honors project on written and oral variants of the type of fairy tale where children are left in the woods by their parents (i.e. Jeannot et Margot, Le Petit Poucet). I spent my junior year abroad in Paris through the Hamilton College program and took most of my courses at Paris III and the Institut Catholique where I first got a taste of linguistics. After graduating, I taught foreign language for four years – teaching English in primary schools in Brittany and then middle and high school level French in Virginia. From personal experience of living in France (Versailles, Limousin, Paris) and learning French at a young age (age 7 and 12), I am now interested in studying issues in bilingualism, relating to both language acquisition and language contact. I have spent summers leading student trips to France, attending the LSA summer institute (2009), and studying Arabic intensively. I have incorporated this interest in Arabic into several projects in French linguistics courses and plan to continue in this line of research for my dissertation.

There will be two options for Federico Balzaretti in the summer – to stay at Palermo or join Paris Saint-Germain.
The Italian international has been linked with a move to the French giants for some time and they remain a possibility.
"It's still very early, but there are two solutions for him – Palermo or PSG," agent Marcello Bonetto told TMW.
"The relationship between the player and President Maurizio Zamparini is important so they will decide, with calm, what is the best choice.
"We are talking about a great player, someone who would only be leaving Palermo for family reasons."
The former Torino, Juventus and Fiorentina stopper is keen on a switch to Paris as his wife works as a ballerina in the French capital.

Ultraviolet (UV) surface enhanced Raman spectra (SERS) are observed for the first time using gallium nanoparticles (Ga NPs). Ga NP ensembles were synthesized on sapphire substrates at room temperature by molecular beam epitaxy. In situ spectroscopic ellipsometry was used to tune the UV local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) wavelengths of the Ga NP ensembles during deposition. Three samples were prepared with LSPR wavelengths of 325, 295, and 260nm. UV Raman spectra using a 325nm HeCd laser were collected from fixed thicknesses of cresyl violet, poly(3-hexylthiopene), or MEH-CN-PPV that were spin cast onto these three samples, each of which had a NP-free region. A sample!`\={ }s enhancement was measured by comparing selected Raman signal intensities from the NP-covered and bare surfaces. Enhancements were found to decrease with increasing detuning between the laser and LSPR wavelengths. Similar behavior was observed from Ga NPs after 3 months of exposure to air, demonstrating the resilience of Ga NPs to oxidation.

Osma Harvilahti returns from Morrocco with a treasure trove of exquisite photographic diptychs
Since we last spoke back in August, Finnish photographer Osma Harvilahti has been a busy guy. As you'd hope from a bright young creative talent he's been involved in both commercial work and, rather more excitingly we think, a personal project that's seen him travel across Africa just for the hell of it. Taking in Morocco, Kenya and a third location that he's yet to decide upon, the resulting images offer a beautifully composed exploration of each country's visual make-up.
These six diptychs are just a small sample of five days' worth of photographs taken on location in Morocco and show off Osma's extraordinary ability to seek out naturally occurring textures, hues and tones that many other photographers would miss, not to mention his undeniable knack for creating narrative and conceptual pairings from complementary images. We like, a lot.

Smith guided the Saddlers to victories over Stevenage, Portsmouth, Preston and Bournemouth last month before those four impressive wins were rounded off by defeat at Colchester.
Walsall have since got back to winning ways in February and January's exploits have helped contribute to an overall run of eight wins in the club's last 10 games, moving the midlands outfit away from a potential relegation battle and into play-off contention.
Panel member Alan Curbishley told the Football League's official website: "It's been a great month for Walsall with a very good run of results, including an emphatic win against high-flying Bournemouth.
"Dean Smith has successfully guided his side to the top half of League One and are now potentially eyeing-up a play-off spot."

Food was okay, but the server/owner? was borderline rude, which just kinda brought the whole experience down. If you're gonna run a restaurant, you just have to be nice to people...I dunno, it seems really obvious to me, but whatever.
Posted by hpsauce on 02/03/2014
I eat here frequently. The menu is solid, healthy and consistent. It's fairly straightforward, but that's what I like about it. The eggs are organic, chilli is great and the bliss salad dressing is lovely. I also love their chai. The curry is quite good too. It's nice to know that I can go out and get simple, healthy vegetarian food at a reasonable price. And quickly, too!
Posted by Barclay D on 01/11/2014
Cash only restaurant. Generous portions. Recommend the Bliss Bowl. Takeout wait normally only about 10 minutes.
Posted by Anonymous on 08/14/2013
I have eaten here several times because its the only decent vegetarian in Williamsburg. The service (ESP owner) needs improvement, find her to be unpleasant but the cooks are great and the food decent enough to return
Posted by anonymous on 02/14/2013
I have been a few times and the food is very tasty but be ready to wait forever. Also, the owner is not the nice chatty type so forget about making small talk with her. Music and ambience needs work for sure. It's not a particularly welcoming vibe. My advice is to call ahead with your order and pick your food up 20 min - half hour later.
Posted by Kara on 10/07/2012
Simple, tasty, reasonably priced vegetarian food. Bliss bowl, harvest plate, burritos and sandwiches are all solid. Desserts if available, are homemade and quite good. Corn bread is gluten free and tasty. Service can vary, but the servers are all pleasant. Not atmospheric-I would not bring a first date, but it's good for a quick meal or takeout.
Posted by SMP on 03/29/2011
This place serves affordable and truly healthy food- which makes it the only place in Williamsburg to do so. If you are looking for a clean, simple, healthy meal, in a nice environment, this is the place. I always leave feeling satisfied and like I did myself a favor by eating there. As for the last person who gave it a bad review- who orders french toast via delivery and expects it to be good? Ha.

PIERCETON — Positive and encouraging news from the state legislature was reported by Whitko Community School Corporation Superintendent Steve Clason regarding the multiple Average Daily Membership (ADM) count, increased appropriation amount for full-day kindergarten and online courses for high school students.
"The legislature finished up and I guess the good news is that they did a few things that were a comfort for WCSC," Clason said at its board of school trustees monthly meeting Monday evening. "The multiple ADM count is going to help next year and I will say the legislature has been more sensitive this year about putting in programs that are unfunded mandates in testing."
State legislation, which would require high school students in Indiana to take at least one online course, is meeting resistance from various school administrators who say they can not afford any more mandates from the state.
The bill would require all public school students to take a "virtual instruction course" before graduating with a Core 40 diploma, beginning with the freshman class of 2013. Indiana school corporations would be required to provide at least three virtual instruction courses in which a student can enroll.
"It's (mandated online courses) not a bad thing, it's just an unfunded band-aid we (WCSC) don't have the technology and pipeline (established)," Clason said. "So they (legislature) pulled that back and said let's do a study and find out what it's going to cost and let's not be passing more mandates on the school."
The legislature also increased the amount of appropriation for the full-day kindergarten grant which the board approved and implemented this school year. This program is exciting for the school's educational staff and parents as WCSC continues to strive in expanding curriculum expectations as well as providing more time to meet individual student needs, Clason said.
"Additional funding for full-day kindergarten next year means that we'll (WCSC) get closer to having our revenue match our expenditures," Clason said. "We are still spending a little bit more in 2012 than we are taking in and we have the cash balance where we can do that. We are getting closer and it's a nice feeling."
Educationally, the state legislature will continue to look at summer study committees.
"I guess the negative to that (summer study committees) is I have to pay attention in the summer too, and will have to go down to Indianapolis regarding summer bills out there which I will address this summer," said Clason.

Lack of action by Council creates need for mid-contract negotiations says BellWritten by Staff Reports | | email@example.com
Toledo Mayor Mike Bell sent sent letters to the City's collective bargaining units informing them it has again become necessary to enter mid-contract negotiations in order to ensure the 2011 operating budget remains in balance, according to a Dec. 27 media release.
The Mayor's office said the city's labor unions are currently scheduled to receive wage increases in 2011 ranging from two percent up to six and one-half percent based on contracts that were passed by Toledo City Council in 2009 and expire in 2011. The pay raises were figured into the Bell administration's initial budget proposal as submitted to City Council on November 15, 2010.
Council's recent decision to delay the proposed Ottawa Hills fire merger, is being stated will increase General Fund expenditures by $420,000. Council's decision to also delay passage of the proposed utility rate increases will add to the deficit said the Mayor's office.
The Bell administration has also proposed the elimination of the collection of solid waste services which is still before Council A deadline of February 2011 has been placed on that proposal. The media release from the Mayor's office stated that Council appears to be resistant to the proposal. The City claims this would save $2.8 million in the General Fund if implemented by September 2011.
In total the necessary General Fund savings amount to approximately $3.2 million, which is roughly the cost of the scheduled pay increases for General Fund employees.
"I don't see how we as a city can justify pay increases on the backs of our constituents when we are not willing to make the policy changes that will save this community money and create greater efficiency in the long run," Mayor Bell said in the release. "It is an unacceptable option when others in city government are unwilling to change the way we do business."
The administration has requested a response from each union no later than noon on Monday, January 3, 2011.

CNN Anchor Don Lemon Comes Out: "In The Black Community They Think You Can Pray The Gay Away"
Don Lemon, CNN's weekend prime-time anchor, is recognized for reporting international news on one of the most notable media sources in the world, but he gained a new level of fame last night after he became a trending topic on Twitter. The social media platform was abuzz after he posted a link to a recent interview he gave to The New York Times in which he revealed that he's gay.
In his upcoming memoir titled 'Transparent', the popular 45-year-old newscaster reveals that he was sexually molested as a child and discusses how he was shaped by his painful past. He tells the NY TIMES that he was concerned about revealing this part of himself to the world, especially in the black community because the lifestyle is thoroughly shunned upon:
"People are going to say: 'Oh, he was molested as a kid and now he is coming out.' I get it.[…]I'm scared. I'm talking about something that people might shun me for, ostracize me for."
"It's quite different for an African-American male. It's about the worst thing you can be in black culture. You're taught you have to be a man; you have to be masculine. In the black community they think you can pray the gay away.[…]You're afraid that black women will say the same things they do about how black men should be dating black women. I guess this makes me a double minority now."
"I think it would be great if everybody could be out, but it's such a personal choice. People have to do it at their own speed. I respect that. I do have to say that the more people who come out, the better it is for everyone, certainly for the Tyler Clementis [the Rutgers student who committed suicide after being outed on the internet] of the world.[…]I abhor hypocrisy. I think if you're going to be in the business of news, and telling people the truth, of trying to shed light in dark places, then you've got to be honest. You've got to have the same rules for yourself as you do for everyone else.[…]I think if I had seen more people like me who are out and proud, it wouldn't have taken me 45 years to say it ….to walk in the truth."
Don Lemon also sent an email to Monsters & Critics, revealing that he was once terrified to tell his mother that he was gay, but after he mustered up the courage, his life began to change in a positive way.
Today I chose to step out on faith and begin openly living my own truth. And let me say right up front that I hope many of you will be inspired to do the same thing in your daily lives. Some of the things I've chosen to reveal in my book Transparent were very difficult to share with even those closest to me.
There was a time when I was terrified of revealing these things to the person I love most in this world – my own mother. But when I finally mustered the courage to tell her that I had been molested as a child and that I was born gay, my life began to change in positive ways that I never imagined possible. Yet I still chose to keep those secrets hidden from the world. I, like most gay people, lived a life of fear. Fear that if some employers, co-workers, friends, neighbors and family members learned of my sexuality, I would be shunned, mocked and ostracized. It is a burden that millions of people carry with them every single day. And sadly, while the mockery and ostracizing are realized by millions of people every day, I truly believe it doesn't have to happen and that's why I feel compelled to share what I've written in Transparent.
As a journalist I believe that part of my mission is to shed light onto dark places. So, the disclosure of this information does not inhibit in any way my ability to be the professional, fair and objective journalist I have always been.
My book is dedicated to the memory of Rutgers University student Tyler Clementi, who jumped to his death from a bridge after his dorm mates streamed his private business over the Internet for the world to see. Tyler might still be with us today if more gay men and women had chosen to live proudly and openly. It is also dedicated to the millions of young, gay people who believe they are alone when dealing with their own sexual identities. You are not alone! There are people, like me and many others, who are thriving in their personal and professional lives and although we sometimes have a hard time with it ourselves, we are here to show you by example that you too can overcome any obstacle as long as you stay strong and, most of all, stay alive."
With love and honesty,
Don Lemon
Don Lemon's colleagues knew about his four year relationship with his boyfriend, a CNN producer, but until now he has guarded his personal life from the public. He was told by other anchors that he shouldn't talk about such things as it may turn off television viewers and take the attention away from his performance.
Hopefully, he inspire others to at least, 'walk in truth'.
His new book, "Transparent" hits stores in June.

Find a Trainer
Nationwide Trainer Locator
Have any of you guys tried testing how many reps you can do at 80% of your max, like Doc suggests in the "Finding the ideal training split article"? I'm just curious to see if you had any interesting results, like a big difference between different muscles. I could definitely see some people having the same results throughout but I'm sure some people are anomalies, which makes them very well suited for certain sports.
I've tested my upper back, lats, shoulders, biceps and triceps and I got the same result with all of them. I'm going to test the chest, abs, and lower body soon. Any thoughts from you guys?
Hey Clyde,
I read that article when I first started perusing this site, and I was hitting 80% for 5 sets of 10 pretty easily...As I learned how to better pursue my goals, (increasing the 1rm in the three powerlifts) this slowly changed overtime. De-emphasizing the 10 rep sets in my training and focusing on doubles and triples led to an increased 1rm, and decreased rep ability at 80%,and a much bigger spread between the two, just like teh protocol says it should.
for example, on the bench press:
Then: 1rm= 275lbs and i routinely did 225x10 for 5 sets
Now: 1rm=350lbs and I could hit 280 for about 6 repsm maybe a couple more if I amped up the motivation.
I could not now do 5 sets of 10 at 225, but have progressed my goal of improving my 1rm significantly.
The squat and DL numbers are less dramatic, but follow the same general trend.
I lost muscular endurance and gained limit strength, and assumedly changed the mix of fibers by converting some of the slow twitch to fast twitch...
This is over a 7 year period from my late 30s into my early 40s.
Not sure thats at all interesting, as it is probably to be expected.
As for fast gainer/hard gainer...It is much easier now for me to add muscle and gain weight than it was when I could crank out endless sets of 10 at 80%.
that's really cool. you actually changed your muscle fiber composition because you know what you are doing. think of all the athletes in sports like boxing who have done the opposite, like doing endless roadwork and changing their fibers for the worse.

The Ibanez MTM1 Mick Tompson model is a guitar made for heavy rock and metal.
Tone, features and playability make the MTM1 as awe-inspiring (and dangerous looking) an instrument as the artist who designed it. The MTM1 features Mick Thomson's choice of U.S.A.-made original EMG pickups. Its 5-piece thru-neck and mahogany body pump out full, fat tone with strong sustain. Todeliver its brutal tone, the MTM1 is equipped with heavier gauge strings than standard RG's. Features include an Edge FX double-locking fixed-bridge and tuning to Mick's preference of C#, with a dropped B: B, F#, B, E, G#, C# (low to high). The combination of mahogany, maple and rosewood with a massive fixed-bridge and EMG pickups make this guitar sound absolutely huge.

King rallies to beat Victoria West
Mustangs score all 14 points in final quarter
VICTORIA - For quite a while Thursday night it seemed like King High School's offense was never going to get into gear. When the Mustangs did, they were able to piece enough points together and held off a late threat by Victoria West.
The Mustangs scored twice in a 2-minute span in the fourth quarter and then nearly fumbled away the game. But the Warriors retuned the favor with a bad snap on a 22-yard field goal attempt with 1:46 remaining to escape Memorial Stadium with a 14-13 win.
"We just had to get it going. Once we get going we're like a train. You can't stop us once we get going," said Rodolfo Alonzo, whose 80-yard scoring run and ensuing point-after kick by Ryan Layman early in the fourth quarter accounted for the measure of victory.
To that point, 148 of King's 270 yards had come on the Alonzo score and the 68-yard drive culminating in Dezi Rodriguez's 7-yard run to open the fourth quarter.
"I've got to give credit to Victoria West. They are very fast on defense, faster than anybody we've seen all year, including Calallen," King coach Eddie Hesseltine said. "It took some adjustments."
The 2-1 Mustangs still made matters difficult for themselves. David Lutito's interception of West's Kyle Motal gave King the ball at the Warriors' 45 with 6:06 remaining. The Mustangs fumbled the ball back to West on a busted play that was supposed to be a pitch to Alonzo, but West's Terry Ramey recovered at the King 26.
The Warriors (1-1) drove to the King 5. But on Felipe Bastida's field goal attempt, the snap sailed 15 feet over his head. Bastida recovered but the Mustangs ran out the clock for their second consecutive win.
King struggled offensively throughout most of the game. The Mustangs' 270 yards were well shy of the 472 they rolled up in last week's 54-14 laugher over Laredo United South at Buccaneer Stadium.
"We felt like we were going to come and take it to everybody," said Alonzo, who finished with 122 yards on 15 carries. "But sometimes things happen and we just have to overcome it. We did."
Said Hesseltine: "I think we were real confident and maybe a little too overconfident. We always need to be grounded and back to reality.
"But the important thing that we just told the kid is I don't know that King has ever won a game like that in the history of the school," Hesseltine said. "We've gotten wins in overtime but not where you had to make a stop and you had to do it. So those kinds of wins have never gone King's way and I think it's because of the things we're doing in the offseason and the kids' great attitude."
It started after a 3-yard TD run by West's Chris Franklin. The snap was bad on Bastida's PAT kick, leaving the Warriors with a 13-0 lead.
King then roared downfield like it hadn't all night. Rodriguez bolted for 29 yards out of a shotgun formation and Brandon Harris added 32 yards on four successive carries to move King to the 7. Rodriguez scored on the first play of the fourth quarter, cutting West's lead to 13-7.
The Warriors were held to a three-and-out and Scott Holster's 61-yard punt bounded into the end zone for a touchback. On the next play, Alonzo scooted around the left corner with a toss from Rodriguez and raced untouched into the end zone. Layman's kick gave the Mustangs their 15-14 lead.
"Everyone blocked. Everybody did their job," Alonzo said. "Everything came together and we scored."
The two times the Mustangs were able to get into West territory in the first half they came away empty.
They were fairly prime chances, too. A poor snap to Holster forced him to scramble and he was dragged down by Joshua Cisneros and Thomas Breland at the Warriors' 33. Rodriguez picked up 26 yards on second down, giving King a first down at the 4.
King went backward, however, and Layman's 27-yard field goal missed to the left.
After West took the 7-0 lead on the Motal-to-Seth Harrison 16-yard connection, King threatened after Julian Bost ran for 37 yards on a quick hitter to the left side to West's 29. Three plays later, however, Bost couldn't handle a poor pitch from Rodriguez and the Warriors' Zach Hougen recovered. West ran out the clock to take the seven-point halftime lead.
W — Seth Harrison 16 pass from Kyle Motal (Felipe Bastida kick)
W — Chris Franklin 3 run (pass failed)

2012 Coronado Speed Festival
(San Diego, CA) - The 15th annual Coronado Speed Festival took place on Saturday and Sunday, September 22nd and 23rd on the airfield at Naval Air Station North Island across the bay from downtown San Diego. Car lovers got to enjoy vintage races on the runway, a car show, and static displays of military aircraft as part of a tribute to the men and women who serve our country.
The racing action on the track was broken down into 9 groups with entries that included Shelby GT350s, Cobras, Falcons, Trans AM era Mustangs as well as LeeRoy Yarborough's NASCAR Ford Torino Talledega. NASCAR fans also enjoyed several historic racecars that were once driven by Rusty Wallace, Bill Elliott, Darrell Waltrip, and even Dale Earnhardt.
In between all of the races there was also a brief drifting exhibition put on by a group of amateur drivers along with two Formula DRIFT pros, Ryan Kado in his Forged Racing/Nexen Tire 350z and Matt Powers in his Need for Speed/Nitto Tire Nissan s14.
Yards away from the pieces of history turning laps on the track, fans were able to check out hundreds of hot rods lined up in the Car Corral where almost every brand was represented in some form or fashion. Ford fans enjoyed the Shelby Cobras, Ford GTs, and Mustangs from nearly every generation and special edition ever made.

Legal Fictions
Editorial Staff • West End • 29 Feb 2008
It's true that neither piece, in which Edward Fox plays first a failed barrister and then a retired High Court judge, comes at you with the buttonholing intensity of Sarah Kane or Mark Ravenhill. But in their own way, they stand for decency, fair play and a largeness of spirit that characterise their author in his lifelong defence of free speech.
Designer Mark Bailey provides Christopher Morahan's elegant production with a theatricality essential to plays which started out as radio drama; in the first, the fidgety little wife murderer and birdseed shop owner, Fowle (Nicholas Woodeson), receives his allotted barrister, Morgenhall (Fox), in a vaulted cell of white tiles and high windows that allows the couple to invent their own mock rehearsal; in the second, Sir Fennimore Truscott (Fox) ponders on his neighbour Tom Marjorybanks' (Woodeson) affection for his wife Margaret (Polly Adams) on the lawn of a handsome house and conservatory in the shade of an old mulberry tree.
Fowle killed his wife because her jollity drove him bananas and she spurned the opportunity of running off with the lodger. Truscott's opening line in Edwin – "I put it to you, Marjorybanks, you rogered my wife" – sets out a scenario of adulterous possibilities and paternal identity questions on the very day that his son Edwin – a long absent, high-flying manager in Global Computers – is coming to lunch (we never meet him).
Fox plays Morgenhall as a tragic eccentric who failed in love just as he fails in his first-ever "dock brief" after waiting years to be summoned. His Truscott, dapper and spry in a brown trilby and cardigan, is a social relic with an unshakeable belief in his own place in the world. Watching Fox is like watching an alien comedian of the old school, AE Matthews, perhaps, or Alistair Sim. His vowels are strangulated almost to the point of incomprehension, his jaw clamped rigid like a man whose dentist has left a full set of implements in situ, his gestures despatched with airy ambiguity.
This cranky carapace flatters to deceive, however, for Fox is a master of timing and an actor of sudden, touching sensitivity. The earthbound, highly effective performances of Woodeson and Adams are satellites to his potty planet of otherworldliness from which he radiates a charm as weird as it is strangely moving. You may never see this type of acting again.

Recent Hard Shell Jacket Reviews
Patagonia Super Pluma Jacket
Great all around jacket, built for anything. Will keep you dry. I bought this jacket for backpacking, but after a couple uses, it became my everything jacket. Quickly replaced my go-to ski jacket, found myself wearing it for chilly bike rides, short little strolls through the woods, kayaking and canoeing in the spring and fall. Extremely windproof and waterproof, and with its light weight there is really no reason not to bring it along. The first time I took it out on a trip, 65 degree temps dropped… Full review
Frogg Toggs Ultra-Lite2 Rain Suit
Great lightweight rain suit, but material was not very durable. I purchased this set for a Boy Scout camping trip about a year ago. They were 14 dollars at Walmart, which seemed like a good deal. It comes with its own little storage pouch and they fold down really small and lightweight so packing them in a backpack is easy. The outer material is some sort of plastic like a tyvek suit. It does a good job of keeping the rain off of you, but without any sort of vents built in you quickly start to… Full review
Rab Flashpoint Jacket
In point, this jacket is all one needs for a fast and light, fully protected hardshell. See detailed review below. Testing: I tested the Flashpoint Jacket in the best backyard a guy can ask for: Glacier National Park. Scrambling peaks, backcountry ski missions where weight was to be kept at a minimum. It was my go-to shell and my only means of protection from wind/water/snow. Only other thing I'd bring was a good insulated piece. Sizing/Fit: I am a slightly 145 pounds and 5'10" guy, which seems… Full review
Mountain Hardwear Men's Exposure II Parka
Great waterproofing and an overall good shell, but after less than six months one of the chest zippers ripped. Not something you expect when you pay $280 for a shell. REI took it back and gave me store credit, but by then the shell was out of stock. So, you either pay more for the Arc'teryx shell or buy a store brand. Disappointed in the quality overall. Poor workmanship. Expected more for the price. Full review
Stoic Vaporshell 3L Anorak
Great wp/b shell, usually at an affordable price Fit & Comfort: I purchased a medium, my typical size, which I found to be a bit on the slim side and a little shorter than I would have expected, the sleeves are more than adequate length for me. I've worn it comfortably in the rain and in windy weather. It is an effort to slip on due to the slim fit and half zipper. Unzipping the side zipper makes getting it on and off easier, though. Adjustability: There is a draw cord around the waist and in… Full review
Outdoor Research Men's Helium II Jacket
Now my go-to trail running and tramping jacket. A great performer. This is a great jacket. I'm 6'3" and 110kgs (242 lbs). Naturally I wear the xl. It is long enough in the arms and still allows some room in the body. The hood fits well and has a handy pull cord at the back to ensure a good fit. It's a functional garment. It has one not particularly useful pocket at the chest and another internal pocket which doubles as the stuff sack. It is designed to be minimalist and it works perfectly for… Full review
Sierra Designs Elite Cagoule
Simple, lightweight, packable, and good ventilation. I have yet to find any real negative to the Elite Cagoule (6.5 oz.). It is lightweight, without zippers or pockets. The unique design allows for excellent air flow through the torso, as well as the upper legs and crotch when paired with the Sierra Designs Elite Chaps. The Cagoule also gives you quick access to pants and shirt pockets. If you are looking for lightweight rain wear that works hard at keeping you dry inside and out, check the Cagoule… Full review
Columbia Men's Pour Osity Stretch Jacket
Very light and breathable jacket. A fantastic alternative to a Gore jacket. This is a fantastic lightweight jacket. Quite durable feeling and the fit is excellent (6'2", 185lbs, Medium does it). Didn't even notice it was raining out today. It layers perfectly with TurboDown 650, and I'm excited to wear the combo next winter! Full review
Luke's Ultralite Silnylon Rain Shell
A superb, truly waterproof and lightweight rain jacket. I had Luke add two hand pockets, adjustable wrist cuffs, and pit zips for venting and it still weighs only 5.1 ounces and stuffs into the stuff sack provided (or one of the pockets). I've owned a couple different silnylon rain jackets over the years, but they all had two weaknesses that caused me to not wear them very much: condensation (lack of venting) and no hand pockets. I didn't like sacrificing comfort and convenience for what I felt… Full review

Reason's Michael Moynihan has the scoop on an under-reported terrorist attack that occurred yesterday:
Two explosions rocked the downtown shopping district in Stockholm this evening as holiday shoppers crowded the chainstore-clogged area around Drottninggatan. According to early Swedish media reports, a car parked on the busy shopping street exploded at just after 5PM today, wounding two passersby. Two minutes later, say investigators, a second explosion was heard from a nearby street, where police found a bag stuffed with nails and the body, it appears, of the bomber.
According to this report in the tabloid newspaper Expressen, the Swedish security service and TT newswire (the Swedish equivalent to the AP) received a threat "against the Swedish people" ten minutes before the explosions. In a letter and audiotape, the bomber wrote that "Now your children, daughters, and sisters die like our brothers and sisters die." He continued: "Our actions speak for themselves. As long as you don't stop your war against Islam, and you degrade the Prophet, and your support for that stupid pig [cartoonist Lars] Vilks."
Indeed, their actions do speak, repulsively, for themselves.

Lake Twp. murders reinforce importance of Domestic Violence Awareness MonthWritten by Brandi Barhite | Community Ombudsman | firstname.lastname@example.com
The purple that stands for Domestic Violence Awareness Month is often overshadowed by a sea of pink for breast cancer.
This year, the presidential election — and the Detroit Tigers' run for the World Series — serve as yet other distractions.
On Oct. 16, when many people were watching the debate or the American League Championship Series game, three people, including a 3-year-old, were killed during a domestic violence dispute in Lake Township.
In the middle of all this, I noticed a Facebook post asking for prayers as the tragedy unfolded in the apartment complex.
I tried to get some additional news, but local media outlets were focused on the Obama/Romney brouhaha.
Later, I learned that three people had been killed. Before being shot by police, Jorge Duran shot and killed his ex-girlfriend Amber Jones and their son.
I was the first to tell Nancy Neylon, executive director of the Ohio Domestic Violence Network, about these latest domestic violence victims. Based in Columbus, she hadn't heard the news yet.
Neylon said anyone who sees, hears or suspects domestic violence should call law enforcement, even if it seems small or just yelling.
"If you see something that is potentially dangerous, you could get killed," Neylon said. "It is really important
that you call law enforcement."
Don't worry about getting involved in someone else's business or wasting a police officer's time. People rarely hesitate to call when seeing other types of crimes, she said.
"Your civic duty is to make a call to law enforcement. How bad do you feel if someone gets killed or badly injured?" she said.
"It is better to call than to do nothing."
Neylon said domestic violence awareness doesn't always get the attention it deserves, but the presidential election should be a chance for additional dialogue.
"Frankly, the election gives us an opportunity to highlight the needs of women," Neylon said. "I would have loved one of [the candidates] to say domestic violence is an economic issue, as well as fair pay, as well as access to health care."
When a woman is in a relationship, her partner could be controlling the finances, which is a tactic of abusers, she said. Sometimes the batterers sabotage the women at work or don't allow them to get a job — or even an education.
Neylon knew of one woman whose husband urinated on all of her professional clothes before a big business meeting, hence putting her job in jeopardy.
If the woman does leave, the abuse doesn't necessarily end. Many abusers will continue to visit and harass the woman, she said, which affects everyone in the family.
This makes domestic violence awareness just as important as breast cancer research. Both need a cure.
There is a lot of pink out there, which is good, but we would like to add some purple, Neylon said.
